Maybe I’m wrong somewhere, but this information is in the public domain, even if I agree with you, I can cite as an example the fact that very few bitcoins are already being mined because more than 90% of them have already been mined, you yourself wrote that in the forties there will be, yes there will be only a small, very small part of bitcoins, I will not mine only if the bitcoins are already betting several million dollars, but will you have such a price for Bitcoin?

If we look at the BTC price after the previous halvings, we can see that the difference was huge each time. Now, it's even hard to imagine the BTC price in 2040 and beyond. I'm not sure if the BTC price may be a few million by then, but a few hundred thousand dollars for sure it will be. By the way, if BTC reaches ~$800k, it will equal the gold by market cap.

No point in having an ANN thread if the whole website is down with a 502 Internal Server Error 

It is also suspiciously timed as well!

Edit: I think it is being DDoS attacked. Some other mixers are down too. I will try TOR mirror.

Edit 2: TOR mirror doesn't work either. Doesn't look like a DDoS attack.

I confirm this, the last time I access the service was on 04/27.

Fed fund rates remain unchanged
On May 1, 2024, The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) voted unanimously to maintain the target fed funds rate in its current range of 5.25-5.50%, citing ongoing concerns over high inflation. In fact, the US Fed interest rate has remained unchanged since July 2023 and the central bank indicated there will unlikely be a rate hike in the near future. Such continuous has been stirring across global markets and various assets.


How do Fed rates impact investors?
Investors might get overwhelmed every time Fed announces interest rate since it usually comes with market volatility and fluctuation. In this situation, it’s always a good habit to focus on asset allocation.  Before that, investors should have a fully understanding of their current finances, risk tolerance, and investment goals. Currently, high interest rates tend to be a headwind for many investments. Certain holdings are feeling the effects.

- Borrowing costs. High rates lead to higher borrowing costs which can affect the affordability of mortgages, reducing demand for real estate and impacting property values
- Fixed-income investments. Such as bonds and Treasury securities. Newly issued bonds generally offer higher yields. Holding old issued bonds can potentially lead to capital losses.
- Stock market. Particularly growth stocks that highly rely on capital for future business expansion. High rates will impact companies’ stock prices because of the difficulty of obtaining capital and earning.
- Higher yields on savings accounts. In a higher rate environment, banks raise annual percentage yields on savings accounts which benefits savers.

What investors should do?
The sustained high rate environment is a reminder for investors to carefully evaluate their portfolio allocation. Whether investing in the short term or long run, investors might as well take a look at their personal finances and make the necessary moves of diversifying their assets like finding high-yield savings accounts and certificate of deposit for long-term holding. As for short-term investment, one of the options is contract for difference (CFD) trading. It provides opportunities for short-selling, allowing investors to profit from downward price movements in assets affected by high interest rates. Plus, leveraged trading in CFDs can amplify potential returns during period of increased market volatility resulting from high interest rates. Additionally, CFDs can be used as hedging instruments to mitigate risk in a portfolio, providing partial offsets to potential losses.

An established CFDs broker is JRFX. Operating since 2010, JRFX offers traders competitive spreads and provides one of the best trading environments within the industry. JRFX requires only a $1 minimum deposit to start trading on currencies, indices, commodities, and more. It is popular among traders for its user-friendly interface, 24/7 customer service, and abundant educational resources.

Don't let us regret it in the end because we carelessly chose the airdrop. Don't just because we are looking for free tokens or coins, we actually lose the assets we have in our wallet, that is very detrimental.

In order not to happen badly, as airdrop hunters have to separate between the main wallet and the wallet used for airdrops, it is even mandatory because now many scammers give traps to dApps that are deliberately made to do the drained wallet method.

Not only on Twitter, wherever airdrops originate it needs to be vigilant and don't carelessly connect wallets.
Make sure everything is safe and see how others recommend before working on it.

I see first advice in the list is practicing in demo account, but I dont it is worth spending a lot of time on it. It isnt hard to get familiar with what each button on exchange page does and what is where in UI. I dont know why, but all my experience with demo accounts or demo gambling is me always winning or ending with profit. But as soon as I switch to "real money", my trades become ineffective or unprofitable, even though I am doing all the same. Or lets take other advice - when you fail in trading, return and search why you have failed. I have bought dogecoin few years ago. Now its price is lower. Its price never grew significantly. What is my mistake? Bought it on wrong time? But what was correct then? Nobody cant predict where is bottom.

Demo trading or demo accounts not only let you understand the functionalities of a platform or what each button does, but you can use a demo account to practice your trading experience such as reading charts, using indicators to predict the future outcomes of each cryptocurrency, and practicing the strategies that you have learned so that you can use those strategies when you start making real trades.

A demo account might not make you perfect, but it will at least make you better in terms of utilizing multiple features and techniques that you can use as a trader in the future, and it will save you from unnecessary losses that you might incur if you start trading immediately without any practice.

Ok, I have spend 5 minutes maximum to understand how each and everything works on exchange. I have played with demo account and became an adept of trading, who closes every order with profit. But why when I switch to real trading, everything is different? In short, in demo mode, everything most of the time goes up. This rarely happen IRL. I mean what can I train for a long time, if the best strategy is "buy low sell high" and all I have to do is to wait for price to grow. Demo accounts does not teach patience. Crypto world news and announcements does not influence on demo account. So why then give so much attention to it?
