Topic: YOU ARE LUCKY TO BE IN THIS FORUM - page 3. (Read 500 times)

NO, most of the forum members post to earn merit and when you contribute meaningful and helpful content no doubt you will get merit so I will huge you to follow the rules and regulation of the forum and merit will come naturally all you you need to do is  post what you have in meaningful way and appropriate board that suit your content because that is what affect some newcomers they don’t know where to post what they have some people will post what is suppose to be in the beginner and help section in bitcoin discussion board I think that is what is confusing some newcomers and doing that I don’t think even if your post deserves to be merited you won’t because of that so you need to be careful about that one too, if not there is nothing bad to post because of merit.
 

When we say proverb, we are not expecting that thing to be openly stated, and that is why we call it proverb. What he is saying is that those who know about the forum but don't take it seriously don't know the opportunity they have, so in my opinion, what he is saying is that people who have heard about bitcoin or have an account on the forum but are not serious about learning it don’t know that it’s a privilege to see them here, and that is why he referred to dogs. You know it’s hard to see a dog sitting down and eating food—not that he said people who have food don’t know how to eat,mate.

Even though I have already spoken so many times about my luck getting into this forum, I will not tire of repeating that for me, it is luck. I have been working on the net for a long time, but one day my forum, where I took the information, suddenly stopped working; there was something like an interface update. The break was supposed to last only three days. But because I felt idle, I climbed the Internet and stumbled upon this forum.
It's hard to believe, but I am stuck here. Here I looked at Bitcoin differently; although I knew about it from the very beginning, I stayed here and do not regret it for a second.
Today, when I see the news on Telegram that Elon is leaking or leaking his Bitcoins and that other "investors" are starting to panic because of this, I always think, Why do these people consider themselves investors? Being here on the forum, they would change their thinking by one hundred and eighty degrees. That's exactly what this forum has done for me.

First, I am also happy to be in the middle of this BTT Forum community and it is the same as you feel where market information is always updated and monitored. Yes. the correction in the last 2 days was a bit felt for the market and it crashed to a price of $25,166 in a span of 24 hours due to the Narrative of a Potential Increase in US Interest Rates.

Well, speaking of investment opportunities at a price like that, if you have more funds then keep accumulating and remember one thing Bitcoin will not jump to USD 100K before the next halving and this if we relate it to historical analysis shows most Bitcoin profit cycles occur post-halving than ahead of the halving. what is certain is that demand must increase, of course, then it can change the game.

yes, we as investors must of course continue to dig up knowledge about crypto because without knowledge of course there will be a large potential for losses.

yes, I am lucky to be in this forum because I can learn more about crypto. but I think we shouldn't just rely on this forum to learn about crypto, of course we can learn about crypto like on YouTube, Google and others.

Just by reading different threads with regards to Bitcoin dump, we can easily picture out what to do in this kind of situation.  For those who have Bitcoin, holding is the best course of decision since one does not sell at a lose.  And for those who wanted to buy Bitcoin, now is the best time since the market price plummet, this is the time to buy Bitcoin at a discount.  Nothing beats buying Bitcoin at the lowest price possible.


I can't agree more.  I even think it is a blessings to know this forum and not just being lucky.  This forum keep us updated on the Crypto happening and at the same time enable us to see and know different views of each member.  This forum even explains the current update and the pros and cons through endless debates of members who have different points of view.

This forum is a Bitcoin and cryptocurrency information haven that can help us adapt on the ever changing financial systems.

You're right and it's true that I think this forum is complete and perfect for beginners who want to get to know better and more about the world of cryptocurrency, in this forum beginners can not only add to the number of references they read about trading, how to invest and basic knowledge about other crypto which is more detailed, not only that but all of us are not just passive readers but we can also be active to take part in various kinds of discussions and ask what we don't understand and it's true that all of this is obtained for free.
I think this forum is a very efficient educational medium for educating someone so they are literate about developments around crypto, besides that what I like about this forum is that it allows us to find out the latest crypto news around the world. Even if we can contribute actively and follow the rules here and meet several conditions then we can also get additional income from various services in this forum.

Precisely. Everyone gets lucky upon knowing this forum, especially if you stayed on the forum for years and maximize your crypto learning. Without this, I guess until now I would still be a fan of fiat and would also think the same majority people believe that bitcoin is a big scam and would never do anything good with our finances. But thankfully, I chose to stay in this forum and now my knowledge and skills have even lead me to its great advantage, that is finding profits through my crypto investments as well participating signature campaigns that are giving us good compensation.

I wouldn't say I am lucky to be in this forum because anyone can register an account here and it's up to you if you create an account or not. Either way, no matter what I did when I didn't know about the forum but I would get introduced to it by my brother-in-law to this forum and I wouldn't say I am lucky but I am thankful for it that I became a forum member. Some people didn't get introduced to Bitcointalk. Some people found this forum on their own but you can say I am lucky too but In my opinion, I wouldn't say I am lucky since most of the time, I have bad luck or get in trouble situations. As others have said, yiu hav to ebllbe resourceful or find other means of learning cryptocurrency and there's other websites too where you can learn but you can never find forum as good as this. I am very thankful of it. The reason why I said I am not lucky because some people are destined to know it and I am also not saying I am destined to know this forum or maybe I am lucky to be in this forum. You do gave a point there and there's no denying it just like others have said you have a point there. We do have our different opinions.

Thank you very much for you this encouragement and advice

That's why it is the most informative Bitcoin forum out there, even though your thread might be redundant, your points are correct, without this forum quite a lot of people would have lost their interest in Bitcoin and so many others would have lost the Bitcoins that they managed to acquire, overall, anyone interested has to be here to share their knowledge and garner from other users.
Not every user in the forum actually, there are some users here who panic quite a lot and spread fud, but i am pretty sure the older users who have been here for a longer time and have seen this happen in other cycles would definitely be calm and would be accumulating more right now.

In some parts of Africa, you have to think or reason to get the interpretation of a proverb because the speaker is not mandated by tradition to explain the meaning. To me, the proverb simply means that some people don't know how to use opportunity because they don't know that it is a privilege to have one. A dog is privileged to have food but he can't sit to eat.

I knew nothing about Bitcoin before I joined this forum. It will not be out of place to say that my journey in the Bitcoin ecosystem started in this forum and I have never regretted it. Bitcoin is a remarkable currency and investment and the forum has influenced me positively in different areas.

They are wise words passed down from many generations... no one know who the author is. Just like Chinese also have their proverbs that is not credited to any particular individual but to the Chinese culture in general.  Just meditate on the content of the statement and appreciate the wisdom of old.

I am glad you understood the very essence of my post.  It is actually intended to encourage  other users of this forum, especially the new guys, to take the resources of this forum seriously.

Assuming I paid good attention to this forum when I created my account in 2022, by now I would have built my Bitcoin portfolio to something magnificent using DCA that I learnt recently. Now I am struggling to build it amidst economic recession, demands from family and limited resources. There were days I made good profits when I was day trading Bitcoin, if I had known what I know now, a good percentage of those money would have been used for buying Bitcoin for long term instead of allowing the money deplete during bad trading days.
There are even other trading techniques I learnt from this forum which are useful. I will not forget the knowledge I got about bitcoin wallets and how to store my bitcoin because I was storing in exchanges before.

Thank you for correction, it is well noted and appreciated. Gradually I will have a hang of it.

First of all, the capitalization of your topic is not necessarily needed, before I registered to the forum those are some of the information given to me by the person who introduced me to the forum. So I am very much careful about it. Your Proverb too is strange because those who have food to eat always know how to eat and that is called table manner. They can maintain table manner so I don't know where that of yours come from. Yes forum has all the information about bitcoin so it is easy to learn from here.

Yes the dip is the trending post in the forum and while some are angry of the dip others are happy for the dip so in all time bitcoin is favorable to people.

Not all in the forum will understand that this dip is not new or else there will be new post for every dip on crypto market. The advantage of being in the bitcoin forum is you can discuss and gain encouragement to each other to keep holding unlike those Bitcoin holders that using twitter to discuss and use as source of knowledge since twitter is full of bullshit fud from influencers.

I don’t buy during panic sell but rather I wait for the price to calm then purchase slowly to make sure that you will not purchase a falling knife. You are considered as panicking if you are buying during the actual sell off. Just watch and wait for the calm before you enter.

This proverb doesn't make any sense at all!! Any reference to this will be highly appreciated 


Tbh feels more like people of the same interest having a social hub to talk about cryptocurrencies and the alike...and am certain even if we hit the reset button I would still find the bitcointalk forum the same way I found it several years ago.

Maybe you had this picture that the forum was limited to trading when intact its a whole marketplace with all sorts of trades and skills.

I had a short moment of thinking whether I should merit or not.. and I decided to not merit.
However, while I do agree with you on merit fishing threads, we also need this kind of "this forum is really good" ones too.


I think that he should just fire his mentor and not get another.
Mentors are human and humans can make mistakes or just be greedy (charge, but not know what they're talking about or simply scam).

A change in thinking plus a good reading (and asking questions too, publicly) should do much more than any mentor.


You are on a good/better path, but you are only "touching the surface". You should go farther, especially with the knowledge. Then you can also decide better for your investments.

Got a point. Without this forum I probably knew bitcoin and crypto as a simple investment like normal stock on the market. But with the things Ive learned here and earned through different methods are undeniably the best experience for me related to crypto. Youll learn things on your own and youll remember that its not easy at first but now when someone talking about it youll just smile and nod that hey I know what their talking about.

That's right. Without this forum, my perspective on Bitcoin would've been like an ordinary person on the street. I can say that my biggest advantage is to discover this place in the earliest period. When I look at the people around me, their perspective on Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies is very different than users of this forum.
There are many people who see Bitcoin only as a get-rich quick scheme or think like only gambling or the stock market. Not many people look at the technological side of things. If they had researched this, they would've adjusted their investment preferences according to that.

Yes, I'm looking forward to gaining more knowledge about Bitcoin in this forum.

No, it's no crime, and I think deep down when we post on this forum, we all like to be given merits, but I'm sick of seeing OPs saying things like:

1. I bought X amount of bitcoin and it has changed my life.
2. I convinced my grandfather/my friend/my neighbour to buy bitcoin and it has changed his life.
3. The merit system is wonderful and has made me a lot of progress.
4. This forum is wonderful.
5. <...>

Things like this, which are repeated every day on the forum, and which in many cases are simply made-up stories to gain merit. I'm not saying that you are not sincere, but there is a pattern that repeats itself too much on the forum and I'm sick of it.
