I discovered an amazing feature on the forum where you can pick images of top celebrities in different categories as your avatar. I was trying to change my avatar, but the upload didn't work. I thought "Choose Avatar from Gallery" meant the same as "Upload Avatar from Gallery," but it turns out you can select from a list of available celebrities in the gallery. I really like this feature. As you can see there on my avatar, I used that of Satoshi nakomato  . There's Hal finney and so many others. So,did anyone else not know about it?



Available category to choose from.

I thought Satoshi Nakomato was supposed to be anonymous and no one really knows for sure how he looks like then how are you sure to use his picture? 

I recently stumbled across that feature too and was curious if it was the same as uploading avatar from gallery but since i am aware and used to uploading from gallery i just didn’t click to find out.

Yeah, in the short term, it is very difficult for SOL to surpass ETH in terms of capitalization, but I still expect fierce competition between them in 2025. That will create excitement in the market and we will see a hot altseason. I believe that something huge is being planned behind Solana, institutional money pouring into SOL is already greater than pouring into ETH in 2023!

Solana has good team behind their project, I agree with you I don't think solana will surpass Ethereum in short term.
But It might be happen at the coming future.
Because we all see Solana has shown good performance.
I have buy more solana again and will hold until next year.
Solana ever touched $ 260 ATH, I think It will hit again next year.

Solana have been one of the projects that have surprised people recently and have shown a great potential to surpass lots of coins but I doubt if it can surpass Ethereum in a short time too, maybe in the future it can but not anytime soon. Both projects have a very good team behind them and Ethereum have even been predicted to surpass btc in the past because of it’s potential. Let’s just enjoy the positivity of Solana and witness it surpass it’s ATH and set a new ATH.

I am accumulating more Solana than the usual getting ready for it to bloom again.

1. Separate your bitcoins to hot and cold wallets

Online wallets are called “hot wallets”, since they are at high risk to network based attacks. If you are running any kind of Bitcoin online business, offline (‘cold’) wallets will be a better tool. They are way safer and they are not so attractive for hackers. It would be ideal to keep the bulk of your Bitcoin funds on the cold wallet. And for your day to day Bitcoin transactions keep just a small float of your Bitcoins on your online wallet.

The safest wallets are offline wallets and for day to day transactions you need an online wallet surely for fast and easy transactions but i would still recommend a non custodial hot wallet where the keys of your wallet is in your possession. Using a custodial wallet is risky as the private keys are not in your possession and one can easily get scammed or exchange can get hacked.

2. Store private keys offline

This is a very essential part every bitcoin investor should take note of, storing of private keys online will expose the keys and your assets to hack attacks that will lead to asset theft. It is very common nowadays so to safeguard our assets we should store our keys offline away from internet connection as anything connected to the internet can be compromised.

Storing offline doesn’t mean we should keep them in a place we can easily forget but rather in a place we can easily access them and also it would be wise to make duplicates and storing each in a seperate location in case any unexpected situation.

3. Use fragmented backups

Never thought of this but this sounds like a smart idea making it very difficult for anyone to use even though they come across any fragment. But it would be wise to make duplicates of each fragments in case of unexpected situations.

It is known to us that many new altcoins are entering all exchanges big and small. What new altcoins do you think will rule this year? Because the number of new projects decreased in the past few years, the only reason is that the number of scam project increased so due to which investors refrained from investing in new projects.

We will see how the year will go, many Alt coins has been launched and many more will still be launched as we are expecting the bull run soon and definitely when then bull run arrives there a new ambitious project will emerge and will be talked about just as we saw with doge coin and the likes but let’s just hope they come to stay for long and grow into one of the hottest projects.

The emergence of new projects will increase the rate of scam projects and that is what all investors should be on the lookout for. Scammers are patiently waiting for this period in order to scam people so we should be very cautious about choosing what project invest in, proper research should be conducted before investing into any project.
