I have heard this silicone valley issue way to long to just ignore it but truth be told I have little knowledge About what the drama is all about can anyone enlighten me about it.
There is nothing serious about the whole thing about the silicon valley bank situation. It is just about the bank collapsing and the bank saying they can only pay taxpayers which I consider unfair.

I think you have a very valid point there, from my understanding the UJob is a channel where people post job offers for free and then people willing to take up the offers can then do so, it is very similar with a service board, the difference is just that the UJob is a channel outside the uTalk forum, but the service board would be a section in the uTalk forum, so the both of them can work together.
This sounds really nice. You know have such channel or board here will help to provide job opportunities for me people thereby increasing their standard of living. I hope this turn out to be good. Scammers may troop in.

I believe at this point we are now, this uTalk forum is a very good place to learn about Utopia, the quality of posts have gone very high, and there are many user now who know a lot about Utopia, so anyone coming in now can ask questions, and users who have been here longer would provide answers, that is the purpose of a forum like this in the first place.
That's totally true. We are now at a high standard when it comes to the quality of posts posted here. Also, users on this forum are friendly and eager to teach or impart knowledge to those that wished to learn. It's a nice place to find yourself in.
Well gambling depends on what sort of gambling, if it’s the game of dice then it need more of luck than less of knowledge but if it’s card games then experience and knowledge has a part to play.
Yeah, you are right. You need a level of practice to be good I'm gambling which will take a while that is why you have to have fun while doing it. You concentrate on having fun while learning. Fun is one thing that keeps games together.
Well this is one of the first rule I learn when I started to know about cryptocurrency and there is this saying that not your seed phrase not your wallet. You aren’t in full ownership if you leave your coin on any exchange.
Good to know you learned this important part of cryptocurrency on time. It is really an advantage for you. Not so many get that opportunity to understand this simple principle.

Just hope all the cryptocurrency investors that was affected by the Silicon Valley bank failure and FTX collapse get back their fund back or else it will mentally and physically affect a lot of them.
I don't know about others but every US citizen that's paying his/her tax that's among those that were affected by the FTX collapse and Silicon Valley bank failure will get back their fund. Although it may take some time but they will get back their money.
So, you are saying nontaxpayers can get their money back? That is so unfair if you should ask me. First of all, taxes should not be mandatory, especially for private workers. What of students that we're operating on that bank that do not pay tax because the are not old enough to work?
I have only appreciated the fact that I can share artificial intelligence generated pictures with someone on the Utopia p2p channel apart from that k haven't really don't much using AI.
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.
Chelsea hasn't been playing impressive football they have just been very lucky to be winning games although I think luck can also take them far but I don't see Chelsea as a threat to any big team.
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.
Detroit;5977 wrote: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.
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.
Detroit;5859 wrote:What are the ways people can learn how to be thier own bank?
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.
Does anyone here love to play football, it has always been my hobby right from when i was a kid in secondary school, i play football with my mates and i was always one of the best. I still play football today, but not as serious as back then, i use it to ease stress, does anyone here love to play football, and were you or are you good at it?
I'm someone do not like to play football because I was scared of having myself injured. I hated injury as a kid even up till now, whatever will coat me injuries is avoided with a top speed.

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.

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 see Manchester city taking this Champions league cup home. They have tried and they deserve it. We know Bayern is doing well also but we need Manchester City to take the title.

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 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.
Guys I was just thinking it would be wise if at this point now Utopia p2p team makes a contest where we can predict which team would be the winner of the uefa champions league.
I think someone has suggested something like that and we are yet to receive a response from the administration of this forum. We really need active campaigns and stuff like that to make here lively.
Detroit;5546 wrote: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.
Detroit;5677 wrote: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.
Cat;5561 wrote: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.
This would apply if people truly lacked the knowledge or understanding on how it works, but many today fully understand it but chose to rely on centralized means of storage cause that offers less responsibility and you do not have to be your own banks.
There are also many resources one can use to learn if they are interested in doing so, but many are not.
What are the ways people can learn how to be thier own bank?
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.
