How can you help the government better than the tax we paid dully? As a responsible citizen and obedient one, paying our taxes help the governments to raise more money and with more money, they can execute more project for people that are lacking, without these taxes been paid, we will both suffer for it because the government wouldn't be able to do much.

Furthermore, if the citizens are helping the government to put taxes together, I hope they also put it in good use and not spend it unnecessary things or loot it for their own family and encourage corruption activities.

There is one simple and quality option - not only to pay taxes (obligations of a citizen) but also to demand from the authorities to use them reasonably, not to violate the law, and to fulfill obligations to the citizens of the country.
The authorities are not mythical demigods, they are hired managers who are entrusted by the population of the country to do some work for their wages, which we all pay by taxes.

PS Unless, of course, you live in a totalitarian country or a country led by religious fanatics.

Yeah exactly. But unfortunately I am living in a country which for me is home for majority of corrupt politicians the reason why worthy concrete roads will be purposely rebuilt so they are able to get kickback from the project. Even in disaster hit areas, international aids sometimes won't make it to it's beneficiaries because it will be repacked by corrupt organizers designated by corrupt politicians.

Over the past few years inflation has been increasing all over world and with the start of Ukraine war it has even deteriorated. The food prices have been shooting up and it has increased the cost of living and made life especially of the middle class and poor people miserable. In many countries corrupt politicians and elite business community have been using this situation for their own benefits.

I think that is the new normal nowadays. 😅 This is why we need to achieve financial freedom through crypto so that we are not affected by inflation and other manipulation in the society. War for me is another form of manipulation because we all know it is one of the most successful business people aren't aware of.

As you mentioned, war is a form of manipulation, perhaps this makes sense, when a lot of new technology is created and a country has an unlimited amount of wealth, it will have the potential to dominate the battlefield, but do we realize that this is a very selfish nature? What is the fate of those who are victims of war? Are people's lives determined by the greed of a country that likes war?

Sad reality about war is that it is the most profitable business to date created by oligarchs around the world and they don't care about the innocent victims. Wars also caused by greed as you have said and for me that is pretty accurate.

After halving we have not seen any positive things happen in the market but according to predictions the halving does not alter the price faster so as we have experienced 73k$ before halving so without doubt we will see price movement more than 73k$ after halving.

Before halving and ETF approval, I had always said and anticipated that two will derive the market!

• US ETF
• Halving bull run

I said, if A refuses to move the market, that B will. And fortunately A already moved the market. We shouldn't expect the effect of B almost immediately.

Does this mean there is a good opportunity for the price of bitcoin in the future? because remembering what you have said that some group A has moved markets.

Well for me yes it does. Bitcoins price on much wider time frame will prove that claim because it is still rallying upwards to this day. I mean very bullish so much better for you to fill your bags before new ATH will come or else it will be another year that you've missed the train just like me as I've missed previous bullruns and I hate to think it would happen again to me in the future.

Decentralization is probably the best attribute of Bitcoin and it is what makes it the most beautiful currency in the world because no other currency is as decentralized as Bitcoin in the whole world. Bitcoin promotes individuality and financial privacy that a lot of people wanted but never got but now with Bitcoin, a person can have their money stored in a safe place while no one apart from them knows about it nor they can access it.

There are a lot of other factors as well that make Bitcoin attractive, one being it's volatile nature because people know if they buy Bitcoin today and store it, they can get more value for their money in the next few years which has made it so popular these days.

The fact that Bitcoin is the pioneering in the decentralization that is what it makes so beautiful though Bitcoin as a form of payment is a failure to me but it doesn't matter because Bitcoin has became the best investment in the history of cryptocurrency and it was proven and tested by early adopters.

Though privacy coins also existed but yeah it all came in the idea of Bitcoin so it was still credited to Bitcoin in terms of blockchain  technology.

Oo kabayan, alam naman nila mga ginagawa nila. Basta para sa kanila, wala namang problema ang mahalaga ay aware sila sa sitwasyon ni Binance ngayon laban sa SEC natin. Huwag lang kampante na tahimik ngayon kasi di natin alam kung ano nangyayari talaga. Pero ang pinakainaasahan natin ay sana lahat sila ay nagkakaroon ng dialogue at coordination na para sa ikabubuti ng PH market nila dahil madami silang users dito.

Yeah maganda naman talaga ang market dito sa atin lalo na at dumadami na ang pinoy na involve sa cryptocurrency. Nagsimula yata yan sa mga airdrops kaya alam na din nila yung mga exchange na posibleng mapaglistahan ng tokens na nareceive nila pero ganun paman ay wala talaga tayong magagawa kung hindi talaga magkasundo ang local sec natin at ang Binance pero sana ay magawan pa nga nila ng paraan.

Nagsimula talaga yan noong pandemic tapos axie time tapos ngayon naman mas naopen na ideya ng mga pinoy sa mga airdrops at investing sa crypto market. Kaya nga maganda ang crypto movement dito sa bansa natin dahil nagiging open na ang karamihan tungkol diyan. Kaya noong nagkaroon ng balita tungkol sa SEC at binance madami din ang nalungkot mapa big time investor at small investor man kasi lahat tayo apektado.

Ay! Uo nga pala nakalimutan ko yung surge ng NFT few years back kabayan dyan nila nagagamit ang exchange eh whether payout or magsesell sila ng mga nacollecta nilang coins. Naalala ko pa na inalok nila ako sa Axie pero di ako natempt na sumali kaya ayun ako lang yung nagkicrypro na di kumita dun haha.

Baka isipin ng karamihan na ito na ang magiging weak low bago mag-explode ang presyo ng Bitcoin. Pero marami pang zone na posibleng puntahan ng presyo kase may mga imbalances pa na hindi pa nafifill. Tingnan nyo sa $45k na presyo, posible talaga yan puntahan. Kaya mainam din na DCA ang gagamiting strategy, huwag agad ubusin ang funds baka may ibababa ang presyo.

Nakakagulat talaga ang presyo ng bitcoin sa ngayon lalo na kung ikaw ay baguhan sa pag-invest gamit ang bitcoin siguradong mai-stress ka sa kakatingin sa mga pulang chart pero tama ka kabayan, gumamit lang ng DCA para kahit papaano ay hindi masyadong malayo or medyo makakabawi pa tayo kung aangat siya ng kaunti.

Yeah, kung ayaw ng stress kabayan the best na choice ang DCA kasi regardless of rice movements safe sya gamitin di tulad nung talagang lalaruin mo ang market medyo makakahilo lalao na kapag wala tayong masyadong knowledge about technical analysis tulad ko hinuhulaan ko na lang yung next na movement eh kaya panay luge. 😅

If you are gambling with you husband's money and have won  a big jackpot then it is most likely that your husband would be happy if you tell him about it. If your family is not financially very well off and you are gambling with your husband's hard earned money and making a big loss then it may ruin your marital life.

Well yeah that is why it is important to have communication with your partner so things are going easy and good as long as you two agree on specific thing like gambling. We all know that gambling seems to be part of humans life but yeah it all still depends upon the situation no matter what.

If you are referring to trading contest and stuff you can head to popular exchanges since they always have that event with huge prize pool so maybe you should try it out. I wish I can be a profitable trader one day as well as ever since I tried trading I lose every single trade I have that is why I am still in the stage of learning right now.

I was surprised with Guyana's percentage growth and of course it's huge deposit of oil reserves. Lucky for them they are rich in natural resources that might push it's economy up. I just don't know when will be fossil fuels become obsolete because of renewable energy.
