I really hate artificial intelligence (s).  They are just taking over human's spots and positions in this world. But I think I'm glad that the Utopia community was able to help you generate whatever picture you are talking about.

I don't see it as being lucky, mate. They have worked off their ass to get where they are today.  so I suggest you don't belittle thier efforts and hard work as merely "luck" as you called it to be.  I also think there is still room for improvement for them.

Stablecoin is probably the biggest risk in cryptocurrency today and this situation is also affecting genuine stablecoin, many people are very scared to even save their asset in stablecoin anymore I don’t know what can be done about the situation.

I think the obvious solution is to stop saving money or assets with stablecoins since they are no longer reliable.  People can move on with using other times of coins like Crypton, bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.

Chelsea has finally broken the deadlock and are up by one goal in their home. I have to be honest Chelsea has been playing some exciting football recently and are gradually Bagging the wins

They are really strolling around greatness and belly for them. My problem is that they are doing it at the strongest time. Manchester City is here to take that title home whether they like it or not. Anyway, let the best team win.

Well I stand to differ I don't see in any way how Manchester city would win the UEFA champions league, I also don't think the would beat Bayern Munich in their next  UEFA champions league match .

Bayern Munich maybe a tough ass to beat but that is nothing compared to the hunger and desire Manchester city have for this Champions league title. They need it and they will get it.  I don't see anything team stopping them.

I guess there is no harm in trying. Even if just one person is convinced to act as their own banks as a result of such an event, then it is totally worth it.

Whoever would organize it would need to be well grounded on how to act as your own bank, including best security practices and privacy methods.

I guess that's why forums like this are created. To share ideas and support each other but I'm the internet and outside the internet which also includes coordinating ourselves and helping those who need it both intellectually and in every other aspect as much as we can.

Yeah i thought the same thing, just that i like to learn about something well before getting into it, if i am going to gamble with other players, i will not want to lose my money all of the time, lol, so it is better i start learning by reading, before i start practically playing the actual game. Poker isn’t very popular in my country, people born in the U.S, Canada, Germany or Indonesia are exposed to the game very early, all i played when i was young was football, but i will love to enjoy this Poker game with other players.

Yeah, that's a fair point though. Gambling requires some basic studying to keep and so you don't have to lose your money. I will give gambling to Mexicans, they are damn good at it. But still suggest you concentrate on having fun because if you miss the fun part of it you will only play just for business and not pleasure.

I still believe that if they have the knowledge and also fully understand their roles and responsibilities there will be better outcomes in the result of people who are willing to become their own bank.

By doing a bit of research. Getting to understand how custodial and non custodial wallets function and which gives them access to their private keys. This is a simple check that anyone can do and be ready to set up their non custodial wallets within minutes.

You are allowed to have different opinions from others, but for me I would say the dependence on the banking system has made people reliant on such a setting and not willing to change despite obvious reasons to.

You totally have a point there. But you will agree with me that organizing some social gathering examples seminars and webinars would elevate or improve the chances of people being thier own bank.

If there is enough demand for another language then the admins would consider it. For not, I cannot see any language barrier so there is no pressing need now. With more growth we would be moving in that direction.

So, for example, if a lot of Chinese users come, will you allow Chinese too? Isn't it easier and more democratic to keep English?

It's not democratic of you to keep only English and not the two of them. Some people are using Chinese because that's what they understand.  You don't being a sword into a gun fight.  If we're talking about democracy here then we should be able to support both languages.

I don't see how you use a password that you may be prone to forget, although the case of forgetting your password exist but try to self a complicated password that is Only visible to you.

Forgetting passwords can happen to anyone, if you use simple passwords you would not forget it, but that account would be easy to hack, hackers can even brute force it. Using strong passwords is the right thing to do, but you can forget it easily, that is why you should not even try to memorize it, just write it on a sheet of paper, or you use open source password managers to save your passwords, and you can always retrieve it there whenever you need them.

Using an open-source password manager to save passwords seems to be risky.  what if the system gets compromised both by hackers or an insider decodes to sell out some pieces of information to another party?

I have not used the forum support board but have no doubt that it would be a very efficient system judging from how efficient the exchange customer service is.
The entire utopia team are very adept in handling customer related questions and providing prompt and helpful responses.

A special board may still come in handy for brainstorming ways to improve the forum.


Yeah, they are really good.  Its shows how much they care about their customers and always put thier customer first.  Allowing your customers to express themselves makes it easier to understand them and provide what they really want.

I was reading and article where someone said he got into a casino game that accepts btc but he was duped off over $3million because the game wasn’t transparent.

I have also heard of stories that are a bit similar to such and mostly it’s just a some bunch of delusional comment. I understand that losing huge amounts of money can leave anyone in great denial and that’s the phase they are passing through right now.

I never heard about this story before but out of curiosity. How rich is the person that casino duped $3Million? I'm just like what was he thinking when he can diversify the fund into  Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Crypton coin (One million each)

You need to understand that some individuals get really greedy when it comes to gambling and that is why they lose such an amount of money. Always wanting more has landed many in a big financial crisis that they may never recover from.  Gambling has made a lot of people rich but also has recked a lot too.

The idea of not having an email to regenerate your password or welcome back your account is a good one. 
But the downside of this thing is that once the account is lost,  it's gone for good.  There's no redemption or help anywhere.

Everything has an advantage and also a disadvantage, the absence of email makes it very difficult to recover accounts, but that is why we are in a decentralized ecosystem, for people to be educated on how to safeguard their accounts by themselves and not depend on support to come to their aid, if someone cannot handle the responsibilities in decentralized systems, then they have to try centralized ecosystems.

Yeah, I totally agree with you.  But you will agree with me that safeguarding passwords is actually a huge hassle.  You stand the chance to forget it or in cases where you have a loss of memory. Also,  keeping it in a book and storing it stands a chance of getting displaced or stolen.  The point is that risks are everywhere.

The poker game is an interesting game I can suggest you try out. It's so much fun.

So much has been said about the Poker game on the forum, and even though it is not within my interest in the Utopia ecosystem, i have already started to research about it, to see if i can learn about the Poker game first before i start playing with other players. I now know it can be called “card game” with one player betting and the other players either calling the bet or conceding, from my research i think it is going to be fun, but i need to do more research so i do not fumble in the actual game, or am i overthinking?

You are probably overthinking it which is not technically a bad thing. I usually suggest or tell new players or newbies to learn the rules of the game,  have fun,  relax, and enjoy the game. You don't have to be uptight, it's just a game.

why exactly English? would not call it the simplest language

I already explained as best as I could. It is the language with the most spread in the world and also spoken by more than a billion people in the world, along with mandarin, just more common on the different continents.

This is the same reason many other discussion forums are by default using English language rather than others.

Many people seem not to understand English is the default setting in most sites and apps. So it will take a while for it to be able to communicate in other languages. I see the Utopia community moving in that direction.

Yes, day trading does not involve doing cryptocurrency trading for the whole day but it's a habit of trading cryptocurrency every single day it might trading that has to do with some seconds but the trader will be involved in trade every day. That's why it's called day trading

I understand the concept pf how day trading works and where it gets its name from. I was only pointing out as I have been from my first reply that it is perfectly possible to do it efficiently without getting addicted to it.

It is easy to get addicted to and fall into unhealthy hours of trading per day but if on has a strong resolve, they can resist it and find other things to occupy their time.

Ok. You have a point cause nothing in this world that man overdoes that won't lead to addiction or an unhealthy result but I don't understand what you're trying to say when you said "but if on has a strong resolve, they can resist it and find other things to occupy their time."

Addiction is a dead end no one has to face. It takes a lot of self-discipline and love from family and friends to get out of it. It begins slowly and before you know it you are drowning in ADDICTION.

This in another way to look at it which I have not considered yet. I could use monero as a case study, being a privacy coin itself, if it can survive in China comfortably, that would mean that anonymous and privacy-centric coins are more likely yo be used in a dictatorship regime that does not support it.

Are those coins really surviving in those places? The majority of these private and anonymous coins are kept secret,  just like drug deals because if the government should catch you, you will be in a lot of trouble.

Well since the cryptocurrency market is still trying to figure out a way to hit the bull run I pass the time on the Utopia p2p Poker game table and it's super fun for me.

There's no doubt about having fun through poker games since it is a type of game in which players compete to see who has the best hand according to the rules of the game.

I want to know if it possible for some changes can be made to the Utopia Poker client. There would be an interested community that plays poker tournaments frequently, so this could be run as a promotional campaign. But the client currently lacks some critical features.


This is a very good idea. This will help to motivate both current and new recruit players there by boosting the overall traffic of the poker game. Also, this will help the south a level of publicity.

• Yes, you can create your own channel here,
• Be a registered member on the forum,
• There are currently no exclusive rights I am aware of.
• No, channels can not be passed from one user to another.

There is no exclusive right to pass admin rights to any user on this forum, but if you read the original poster's statement, you'll see that he's referring to the channel on the Utopia application client.


Is there really a reason to pass admin rights? To me, it doesn't make sense. If you are done with the channel you can shut it down and move on with your life. You don't need to continue the channel if you are no longer interested.
