admin has insight into giving karma between users, there was almost an exposed case of farming karma points between alt accounts. It resulted in returning to 0 karma points for all connected accounts.
btw. It would be good if we all had at least an indication of which post received (and how many) karma points.

It seems like we've gone too far off-topic. The Karma issue should be discussed in the Forum related, and honestly, it has been discussed a lot over the past few years ^^

Right now, I'm quite worried about a new proposal to freeze crypto assets related to Mixers. This is really worrying to me because I have always been concerned about the cleanliness of my BTC and have often used Mixers to make sure they are always "clean" enough to avoid problems when depositing them into accounts on CEXs. If CEXs have to freeze all crypto assets related to Mixers, I will have to find other ways to make sure my account is okay. I'm not even sure if every satoshi in my account has ever been associated with Mixers in the past few years

• U.S. Members Of Congress Propose Two-Year Ban On Crypto Mixers

The executive summary here is three parts.

Number one: The bill they are trying to pass is dead in the water (at least as long as there is a republican-controlled House, although it goes on to show that if Democrats take control of it, they will use it to completely destroy crypto privacy).

Number two: This bill was co-authored by SBF's brother. Let that sink into you for a second. It underscores why SBF deserves to rot in jail for an eternity. He does not care about crypto, but he is for "Big Government".

The third and most important thing is that the lawmakers is just going to automatically assume that mixing == money laundering and not change their opinion about it, as if a bunch of stuborn 10-year olds are writing the laws! It doesn't matter what sort of explanation or analysis you give them, it's "guilty unless proven innocenent" and it fits into their sinister plan to strip every crypto user of financial privacy worldwide.

BTC mixing is a serious problem in this market and we still haven't found the most appropriate way to view them. Many people support Mixers because they care about anonymity, but many others also oppose Mixers because Mixers can be exploited by criminals. Personally, I just want BTC to be more widely accepted, which means BTC needs to comply with anti-money laundering laws. I don't want BTC to be delisted from CEXs like many other privacy coins in the market.

I also don't find this proposal feasible, it could affect many investors in the market, they cannot guarantee that every satoshi in their account has never been involved in crime or Mixers. I just hope that the lawmakers can find a way that is both effective in limiting money laundering through Mixers and protecting the rights of users. Of course, I also know that this is a complex issue

From the Begaining we saw after bitcoin halving Bitcoin's price increased. So i think in this halving bitcoin price will also increase, i strongly believe it. History below :

2012= Bitcoin price $12 at halving, After one year bitcoin price were $964.

2016=Bitcoin price $663 at halving, After one year bitcoin price were $2550.

2020= Bitcoin price $8740 at halving, After one year bitcoin price were $55801.

2024= Now bitcoin price is $63300 at halving after one year bitcoin price...........?

Everyone can discuss here after one year thats means after one year from this halving what will the Bitcoin price? Discuss your prediction.

It's fascinating how we always want to predict the future price of BTC, especially in the 12-18 month period after halving because it is expected to be the time when BTC will reach the ATH of the entire cycle.

Many new things have been created in this cycle, for example, a new ATH was created before the halving, so it could come with the possibility that the cycle will end a little earlier than in the past cycles. Anyway, I believe that at an important and sensitive price zone, investor reaction is still extreme and helps turn that price zone into the top of the cycle.

I myself still expect BTC to create an ATH for this cycle at $150K-170K, possibly in early 2025. At the same time, this expectation also makes me believe that the current price of BTC is very attractive to continue accumulating instead of panicking out of the market just before the bullrun.

• BTC ATH in 2025 prediction: Elliott wave & Fibo Retracement ~$160K

It is not as easy as we imagine, that by paying taxes, we can be sure that the government is in line and will accept crypto as a means of payment.
When it comes to taxes, the government is very smart and knows the need, but to be able to accept it as a legal means of payment, there will definitely be pros and cons, because it involves many institutions that all feel entitled to do so.
Also, look at the readiness of the community to see whether they are able and able to accept it, it is still too early for that.

Yeah, the taxation of crypto simply indicates that governments view them as a type of asset or investment, similar to stocks, commodities, real estate, or inherited property. Taxes are not characteristic of a means of payment, and fiat is not taxed because they are not investments. For crypto to be accepted as a means of payment, more time is needed, and I am also not sure if this is the highest priority.

In the bull run 2017, we once thought of economic models in which cryptocurrencies were used for the purpose of paying medical or transportation expenses, similar to how we use BTC and ETH to pay transaction fees. However, I do not think that this can be done because it would make it difficult to declare taxes, so I think that we should not expect too much from the adoption of crypto into the economy. For the time being, I only consider crypto to be commodities and financial instruments.

Trung quốc vẫn còn nhăm nhe muốn chiếm lĩnh nền kinh tế thế giới, họ đã thất bại khi muốn tạo ra đồng tiền chung cho BRICS, bây giờ họ lại chuyển hướng sang crypto, vì thế nên em tin rằng crypto luôn nằm trong chiến lược dài hạn của Trung quốc. BTC là tài sản đáng giá nhất thị trường này, không có cớ gì để Trung quốc quyết định từ bỏ. Hành động cấm đào BTC năm 2021 có lẽ chỉ là sự cố mà chính phủ Trung quốc hơi nặng tay mà thôi, em tin rằng trong tương lai họ sẽ áp dụng crypto rộng rãi nhất để vươn lên và dành lại miếng bánh thị phần trong crypto.

Mình tin rằng Tàu đang có nhiều kế hoạch lớn đối với crypto, mọi thứ sẽ chỉ rõ ràng sau khi Hongkong thử nghiệm thành công crypto cho nền kinh tế và lĩnh vực đầu tư. Trong tương lai, mình không tin rằng crypto có thể trở thành phương thức thanh toán tại Tàu, mà chỉ có thể là một lĩnh vực đầu tư tương tự như thị trường chứng khoán và hàng hóa. Chính phủ Tàu không dễ đang từ bỏ fiat và CBDC e-CNY mà họ đang thử nghiệm. Việc chấp nhận BTC là tài sản đã tồn tại từ lâu những chưa được thông báo, tin tức gần đây có thể chỉ là sự khởi đầu cho điều gì đó cực kỳ lớn sắp đến trong tương lai, trong chu trình này để thúc đẩy sự tăng trưởng mạnh mẽ của BTC và toàn bộ thị trường crypto.

They say sharp ears never miss any important informations, for quite awhile now the space has been quite boring since i haven't gotten any significant Airdrops from social fi like BLOCK MOJO etc . Diverting my attention to RWA and gamify projects , lets see if Apeiron Will be worthy of my time as my friends bragged haha.
They said the project presents itself as the world's first NFT-based god game, offering players the chance to govern a virtual realm with elements of action RPG and true ownership of in-game assets.

Some experts and newbies like myself questions whether the play-to-earn model, central to Apeiron's gameplay, might exploit players by turning them into digital laborers as most gamefi projects always turns out .

Heroes of Mavia , Myria , portal , bigtime are literally the only gamify projects that has pleased my soul .. I ate really big 😋.  Mind sharing your thoughts on gamefi projects? Do you find them time worthy or an absolute fade?

I just checked out Aperion gameplay and read a few reviews about this game. To be honest, I am not a gamer and I don't like playing games either. The only game that interests me is PokemonGo because I can go around meeting friends instead of spending time playing games at home and earning small rewards in the form of NFTs or tokens. So, I think my opinion on Aperion is not really important, I hope the players will share their feelings when playing and earning rewards.

I am usually more interested in the tokenomics of GameFi projects, if they are good enough, I will buy tokens to make a profit in altseason instead of Play-to-Earn. Many gamers made a lot of money from Axie Infinity in the bullrun 2021 but that is not my choice when participating in this market ^^

• Gam3s: Apeiron review

I think gpu mining will get good again. So I picked 20 cent power cost will work for gpu miners.

I don't have much experience with GPU mining, and I'm not involved in the field either. However, recently my friends have restarted their ETC & ETHW farms after the halving and they reported that they are still making a decent profit thanks to the price increase of these tokens. I think we will also see a revival of the GPU crypto mining market soon. What I'm worried about is not the electricity price, but the price of GPUs as the AI trend is using up most of the GPUs on the market.

Maybe I wasn't clear, I bought the MKR on the kraken platform, before I got a Metamask wallet. I know that Metamas is a supported wallet. My issue is the transfer from the kraken platform to my metamask wallet..

Maybe you are a new user of Kraken and do not understand how to withdraw tokens from Kraken to your personal wallet. You can refer to some instructions to follow. Everything is quite simple: you send your MKR tokens to your ERC-20 address. Your ERC-20 address can be managed on crypto wallets such as Metamask, TrustWallet, SafePal...
