At this point in the growth of the utopia system, more people should have understood how decentralization and privacy works. A privacy inclined platform does not need you to submit personal information which would be vetted by a regulatory body, it does not even have such a body.

Email verification, KYC, etc are not part of the system. You act as your own central authority.

I don't say day trading is bad but the habit of doing it 24/7 is what I consider bad.

Interest in crypto does not always lead to addictions. I have been into crypto for over five years now and have never struggled with addiction or inability to zone out at times when I want to.

And I never said you stated that day trading is bad, just pointed out that it is not the act, but the individual involved in it

Great to see people warming up to the idea of accepting virtual currencies when they are given sufficient information to understand how it works and not just trust what the governments and banks tell them.

It shows that global adoption within the foreseeable future is possible, we just need more accurate information to be easily available.

Third party retailers can open portals for people to purchase the Starlink product and pay in Crypton, but getting it to be a service offered directly from the manufacturers would take a bit more time.

If there is a huge market for the CRP payment option, it would spur them to consider making it an official payment method.

Would be interesting to see if the Paris Saint Germain board decides to consider getting a new coach if the team also fails to progress past the round of 16 of the UEFA Champions league in addition to getting kicked out of the cup competition.

There would be lots of pressure on the coach and the team as they try to finally chase down the elusive European trophy.

It is not a service offered by utopia but a crypto forum. We should not be discussing alternate forums here cause uTalk has awesome features, as much as any crypto enthusiast needs.

Managing a forum is a tough job and as you pointed out, the admins would be very busy and set their priorities straight for what they want to add to the forum and how pressing a particular suggestion is.

This is an online forum, do not expect every member to be conscious of replies or even return to threads that they start. Some users log in only on free time and could go days without being active, some just comment or ask a question without being curious about the answer and some read the comments but do not bother to reply.

A lock option would have been useful in this case to prevent spam on the thread.

Day trading is not bad per se, it is all down to how it is used. Almost any habit or hobby can lead to addiction. Even interest in crypto can lead to addiction and the user keeps checking the charts every minute to know if there has been any changes, even though they are not trading.

It is all down to self control and discipline.

I agree with what you said. I believe the major problem we have in the cryptocurrency market is that most investors actually don't make use of it as payment they mostly saw it as an asset only and for cryptocurrency to get the needed attention people also need to feel the use of it as a payment method.

For people to use it as a payment, it has to be accepted by merchants around them. I know we already have thousands of merchants accepting crypton as it is, but it is still little compared with more popular payment channels.

The most utilized quality of crypton at this time is as an asset and one which allows people transact anonymously and privately.

The use of a throw-away email address can provide the needed privacy that will connect users in any way but you need to understand there is some platform that never accepts throwaway. This reminds me of when I used a throwaway phone number to register a Twitter account, but after 5days the account was blocked.

That may have not been the reason that your account was blocked. Twitter is strict with new accounts and could have been you violated another of their policy at the time.

Any platform that is averse to throwaway emails is not privacy conscious then and should be avoided if possible, or you sign up with a random address which does not link back to you and you would not reuse on another platform.

It is not always about rookie mistakes because I learn that in the cryptocurrency sphere, some people easily trust influencers, especially those who are doing well with the government.

That of itself is another rookie mistake that no one should be making.

Influencers would market anything that favors them. If an exchange paid them to talk about them and get their followers to use the exchange, they likely would. If a project came to them with a huge offer to shill them, they would also.
If you are into crypto, you should learn to make informed decisions and not simply trust a "big influencer"

Thank you for this great piece of advice. The only problem i have is where i come from this alternative sources haven’t been explored to the point were i can use them adequately, i am from an underdeveloped country, and even if i am to seek alternative sources, it might still not be profitable for me to mine.

Being an underdeveloped country does not limit you from purchasing a wind turbine or a solar panel all of which count as alternative sources of electricity. It could even benefit you if those mediums have not been well explored in your area and you could find other ways they could be applied.

Do not rush it however, if you check the logistics and you guess it would not be profitable, you can put a pause on it.

Anyone following the Manchester United game?
They are 1-0 down to Leeds United at the Old trafford. That is a bit of a shock considering their great run of form over the past few matches.

They trail due to an early goal and while there is lots of time to rescue one point or the whole three, Leeds would want to hang on as their survival in the league depends on it.

Well Nft is still a thing all I can say is that it was better at the beginning when we had few of them right now any fake projects can get up and start their own Nft market place.

The industry is now saturated and that was expected. There was large amounts of money flowing through it, attracting honest designers an con artists who tried to scam people through NFTs.

It still has some potential and could become popular again during the next bull run, but time would tell that.

#2040 Re: Channels and Groups » The forum special board » 2023-02-08 19:46:44

For me, I would say suggesting an addition is enough, we do not need to force the hands of the team by casting a vote or any other sort of poll.

The team reads our comments and threads and would make a decision on any idea they consider worth it and effect changes, we just have to be patient.

One thing about this stage of the competition is that you cannot predict any winner. There are so many great teams and having fought your way out of the group means that the team deserves to be here.

Also lots of exciting fixtures to look forward to and exciting players. A treat for football lovers.

The next Bitcoin halving is expected to occur in March 2024. The cryptocurrency market is already starting to show signs of movement now. In the next 6 months, there may be a buildup of excitement similar to that seen four years ago. This period of increased activity may be seen as a warm-up before the halving in 2024. These first 6 months are a time phase where you buy CRP cheaply.

You are right about the timing for the halving and its significance to the market price.

If previous market cycles are anything to go buy, there would be a slight dip between late 2022 and early 2023 as everyone tries to buy in cheap in expectation of increased prices.

But as I mentioned, I would not be surprised if Crypton does not follow the regular rules.

I don’t think short term holders should be amongst us, we actually don’t need them in this ecosystem, short term holders has actually left coin very worthless.

Short term holders are actually very useful for liquidity and trading volume. If everyone was holding for the long term, then it would be almost impossible to purchase and affect the availability of the coin.

The downside is that they slow price growth if they are panic sellers that dump once the price is not in the green zone.

Yeah sure, this forum has a lot of skilled individuals, but in a contest like this i don’t think that it is the most important thing, i say so because what is most important about a contest is the prize money to be won, and in this case it is the admin that will have to provide that, so without their approval any plan is futile.

The prize money is very important, but equally important is the engagement that would be gotten from such a contest.
Reason I suggested the members can help to reduce the cost of running it, making it more profitable for the team if it is well received by the football community.

The final decision rests on the team.

Not your keys; not your coins. This is one of the most important advice for a crypto holder and should not be taken lightly at all.

Exchanges are for that, exchanging your funds, you do not need to keep funds in them longer than is needed to convert them to your desired currency. Use a good wallet that gives you full custody and keep your funds there.

We may not see another new ATH in the next 6 months, but I expect a significant rise from its current price, $0.62.

Same here.

Most coins are hugely correlated with bitcoin and I do not expect Bitcoin to enter a bull phase within the next 6 months or even a year. CRP could of course chart its own path and be completely independent of other assets as many great projects have in the past.

But whether in the next six months or 12 or more, we just have to hold.

Definitely. In the spirit of sportsmanship, he would not want it to be due to activities off the pitch that led to them winning the league as that would be a question mark on their triumph.

I would expect Arteta and the Arsenal players would not want points chopped of city.

We would never know until the channel is set up and fully functional.

I for one would contribute whenever I can to the channel and try to keep it as active as I can and if we have a couple of other like-minded people, we have an active channel, if not we have given it a shot.

His personal interest does not count, neither would it factor in during the FFP hearing.

He of course would have a certain fondness for Manchester City, just as he had with Arsenal while he saw over at City, and refuse to celebrate when they score against them.
