Well no one has ever taught about this but I feel we should have a board that's dedicated to newbies, here they can ask newbie question and get experienced answers.

I think the forum is already very newbie friendly and they can pick up advice literally on every thread they visit. Having a dedicated board is not a bad idea per se, but not a pressing one in my opinion.

I can freely ask any question I have in the most appropriate board and I would get my answer.

Yes mate that’s true I have also experienced some scam attacks by using telegram and that app scares me but honestly speaking every one enthusiastic about cryptocurrency should probably be on telegram.

You are right that it is pretty popular in the cryptocurrency world, but it is not a necessity. I know crypto users who do not have an account there and are always pressuring me to ditch the app cause I could do without it.

I have a couple of groups which are valuable to me and keep me registered on the platform.

Barcelona coach Xavi Hernandez has just blasted his team for playing poorly against Real Madrid and he claims that his team has not yet matured enough and I would say that to be true.

The team are a consequence of the coach and any fault in the team is the duty of the coach to fix. Xavi and the players have had a decent season. The failures in the champions league and now in the cup shows that there is lots of room for improvement, but the team is on the right part.

In other sport news I think Newcastle aren't getting enough of the respect they deserve, they have really been fantastic this season and they have really spent in the market as we expect them to soon do.

I really hope to see them in the UCL next season. They have been brilliant this season.

Oh, thanks, mate. In that case, the other party is in serious trouble. Like, are you saying for instance if I sent 1btc to someone using a very low fee and then later resend it using a higher fee to another account which is mine is called RBF?

It is called double spending not RBF.
RBF stands for Replace By Fee and it is the option that allows you to be able to double spend. When making a transaction you can enable RBF which can be used to bump the fee later if the transaction takes too long to be confirmed or can be used to resend the transaction to a different address, possibly over riding the initial transaction.

What I am trying to say is that some projects may claim to be open source and at the end of the day you realized that they are hiding something which makes it a scam.

If a project is fully open source, then every code used is verifiable, they would only be able to hide something if you do not know how to check or what to do on their github. With closed source you can not verify anything cause it is all hidden.

There is a slight risk of a dev slipping a backdoor in with an ope source project, but that is a very slim possibility.

For majority of cases, this is the situation, meaning you would be safer to assume it all to be a scam rouse from the onset.

The Op was trying to point this out; we should stay vigilant when on the web and never lower our guard cause scammers are always changing their strategies.

That's good to hear that there's actually a campaign against artificial intelligence programs. This will really help people retain their jobs and also give humanity hope.

This is an ethical dilemma, and I am on the side of technology. The possibilities with AI is astronomical and can herald a new civilization with newer, faster, safer ways of doing things.

It would revolutionize health care and procedures which were though impossible would be done with a high chance of success. It would change the building and industry niche and humans would advance in leaps and bounds.

I would take this over the alternative.

Russians might have a good hand on blockchains but that doesn't mean they gave the ability to control a whole ceyoricurrency project alone. It should be a collective effort from different regions and countries.

No where did I suggest that they do not collaborate with people from other regions. I was only pointing out how they have such a strong and talented community in the crypto space.

Collaborations and team work is of course needed for the success of any project.

Well I believe we can share our telegram account here and for those interested in the English and article board they can create their own group probably on telegram.

Not everyone here uses telegram due to the high prevalence of scam on the platform, and it does not have the feel or functioning of uTalk.
If I am to join a writer's group I would really prefer it to be here on the forum.

If I get the time and resources which would make such a channel a success, I will consider creating one myself.

using any exchange at all is bad since they (exchange) can cancel on me while I'm still transacting. But this brings me to the next question, do they take my funds as well when they canceled on me?

Not any exchange. Decentralized P2P exchanges do not hold your funds and have no interest to slow down the trade. Centralized exchanges on the other hand have all the control during the trade; they hold the funds and have terms of service that allows them to seize that fund for any reason they consider worth it.

It was a bad day at the job for FC Barcelona. They did not play horribly and did create some chances, but Real Madrid created more chances and were more clinical in front of goal. They now have just the Laliga to look forward to and Madrid have one hand on the Spanish cup and still have a say in the UEFA champions league.

Newcastle were also brilliant last night, strengthening their UCL position with a very healthy goal difference over their closest opponent.

I don't think Barcelona will win this tonight. I think Real Madrid will win them. Barcelona doesn't have what it takes to be called champions. They are just passersby in this league.

Barcelona are one of the two most successful Spanish teams and one of the best teams in world of football. It is ironic to say they do not have what it takes to be champions. In fact, Barcelona has 31 Copa del ray titles, while Real Madrid has only 19.

Who is following the matches of Manchester United (against Brentford) and that of Newcastle (against West Ham)? Those are tough fixtures and currently it is going as expected with Man Utd and Newcastle leading, but I would not count out their opposition.

Many Newbies fail to actually learn more about cryptocurrency before they invest in it, they just jump in and many makes lots of mistakes that would even cost them their funds.

That is a common newbie mistake that someone would make if they lack proper guidance when getting into crypto and see it as a get rich quick scheme.

One just needs to understand the basics before jumping into crypto or they learn from their mistakes when they get burned and lose their capital.

Hey guys how is the talks about the special board going? This is one of the suggestion that I think the team should actually look into and try to implement it immediately.

The team is surely looking into all our suggestions and would chose to act on which one they consider to be a fit at the time.

We cannot pressure them to take an action that they are not ready for at the time even though we the forum members think it to be a good idea.

Who is ready for the el classico in the Copa del ray?
Barcelona and Real Madrid meet tonight for the fourth time this season in the second leg of the cup semi final. Barcelona come in with a slender lead and are the host of tonights fixture.

My money is on Barcelona getting into the final and possibly winning both the cup and the league title.

Exactly my sentiments. There is no perfect system even though it is named "Utopia". There would always be room for adjustments and improvements as technology advances.

The system is a at a very good place right now and is perfectly positioned in the cryptocurrency industry as well as the privacy industry and would be a major game changer in both sectors.

Footing what I have seen as ChatGPT marketing is considered, there's nothing bad about it and it is never up to the level of filing for artificial intelligence to be banned. Unless the strategy of banning it was pulled by the people that see it as a thread to their business and earning.

There is a full on campaign against Artificial Intelligence and its impact on society with calls from different associations for its activities to be halted for fear of what it could possibly result in.

This could be what led to the ChatGPT saga as it is an A.I based platform.

It is best not to rush the admins at all. They do know what is best for the forum and would take the best possible action to benefit the community. The suggestion has already been made and heard by them, we can only await a response. If there is none it would be safe to assume that the current dynamics of the forum does not favor it.

Could you believe those you are making the statement "What are you protecting" Since you're not into illicit activities are the exact person that wants ChatGPT to be banned because it may leak some classified information in the future.

People consider perceived threat based on how it is marketed to them. The media can make it possible for people to feel threatened by one activity while another seems totally innocuous to them.

For many, as long as there is a padlock symbol at the top of the website they consider it safe and their details to be safe on it or not stolen by it.

Many times people look for romantic relationships online, there is nothing wrong with that, but do not get too comfortable and do not give anything away until you have actually met the person. Do not be fooled to invest or send your crypto to them, it is a scam!

There is nothing wrong visiting dating apps or using social media to stoke up romantic relationships. It is easy to find out when a scam is afoot cause all the cues would be there, many just chose to be blinded to it.

Always be on your guard for scams when on the internet.

And i hope everyone reads it and understands that they should keep some of their data private. Privacy gives you freedom, nobody can trace you, nobody can trace any address to your indentity. This is why i love the utopia ecosystem, fully decentralized and private, none of your data is required to be part of it, none of your data is stored on their platform, so nothing can be leaked.

I hope so too. Everyone cannot read this one post, but if we keep spreading the importance of privacy and anonymity more people would become aware and try to protect it. And more people would use Utopia.

It makes it very easy to make purchases of CRP coins without going through the loops of KYC on centralized exchanges.

Their support team is also a very endearing part of the system. Your issues are addressed promptly and professionally, keeping one fully at ease when transacting.

Well you are right but learning and understand is infinite there is no rules to it. I believe we should take it one step at a time so as to make learning continuous and beneficial.

That is why I talked about learning the basics. Knowledge is continuous, but before risking your funds on an investment, you should know enough to secure it, transact, back it up and k now a bit of the economics. You can learn any of the other technical stuffs along the way.

Take a sure step, learn more and then take another sure step.

The supply of CRP Crypton for now is more than the demand so if the popularity and the actual usage of CRP Crypton goes up then we can prepare for a parabolic shift positively also the bull run is an important factor.

How did you reach that conclusion? Calculating demand means going to exchanges and checking through the sell and buy orders, to indicate buy and sell pressure. If supply was significantly more than demand we would have a rapid drop in the price and little or no liquidity on exchanges.

We could be at a consolidation phase and the price would kick up after a while.

Well, if the admins can provide an option for an individual to lock their thread, you won't or shouldn't play those trying to keep their hands busy on an already exhausted thread.

Even if such an option existed, it would be ignored by most users. Having users moderate their own threads is very demanding and while some do it to keep spam off the forum, many would not bother.

This is my experience from other forums, I could be wrong and the bunch here are much more concerned with how the forum operates.
