The idea that real chaos resistance should be about mindset and how we choose to travel through the storm. Bitcoin, at its core, is movement, freedom to pick up and go, both with our value and with our principles. Both “nomad” and “node” keep moving, both survive by staying light and adaptable. In a world where the ground is always shifting (floods here, fires there, markets melting) sometimes the best anchor is no anchor at all. Letting go of what weighs us down, holding only what helps us stay alive and stay true


Three reads is dedication!

Half the point is that it’s confusing, because the lines between “financial crisis,” “climate shock,” and “safe haven” are starting to blur in ways nobody’s mapped before. But natural disasters hit everything, and Bitcoin’s whole “harder to confiscate, harder to freeze” gives it an edge over, say, suburban Florida real estate

If Bitcoin thrives on distrust, on chaos, then what happens if the “chaos” isn’t a one-off, but a rolling new normal? Imagine insurance markets permanently broken in three or four continents. Imagine every property bubble globally starting to leak, not pop. Does Bitcoin then become the new “home,” or does it become the new insurance? (And if everyone runs for the same exit, does the door stay open?)


Bitcoin can withstand everything except: forgotten mnemonics, lost passphrases, holders wiped off the map before anyone gets the memo. Makes you wonder: all this digital immortality, and it is still fixed to a frail, twice-cursed flesh-and-blood body can disappear in a flood, or a fire, or an earthquake

Trustless with maximum trust in meatspace: who are you going to entrust your backup to? Family? Friends? One of those multi-sig time-locked schemes?

In the next big climate disaster, maybe it’s not just “how do I rebuild my house?” but “can I recover my keys?”

The nightmare scenario: a whole city hit, nobody recovers, and a new kind of digital ghost town. Wallets full, but utterly silent

If these posts sound like nonsense, it’s because they’re artificially generated. He spreads out posts just enough so they aren’t considered burst posting, but the interval still seems too short to be natural for somebody writing these long walls of text while also controlling at least one other currently active alt account and an altcointalks account that are also writing really long posts. They also use humanization tools to avoid detection. On chain evidence suggests they are an alt of ChuckBuck, one of the largest account farmers the forum has ever had.

Yeah I think that is what OP meant. If climate change increases all the world's temperature averages, then it will be rougher to keep the machines cold. Plus you have to factor in the increased environmental phenomena related to higher temperatures, such as hurricanes, typhoons, earthquakes and so on. But these things will impact all industries, so it's not different. You will have to adapt. And Bitcoin is a global permissionless network, so you can plug in and out machines as needed without any meetings with the CEO. Each miner operation will come up with their own plan. This means BTC is very efficient compared to other industries. AI datacenters will have to adapt and plan with clients, with BTC there is no clients, you just plug the machines and go.

The fact that we can see their ads anywhere that means they are exploring many things that can possibly give them a lot of exposure. Also with those things they are ready to spend lots of money especially that most of their campaigns are for long term.

This is why also they became one of the largest fiat and crypto casino since they manage to market well their platform.

So far didn't see anyone posting an accusation against them and somehow that's a good sign that they remain reputable in this forum.

can you verify this? it is in english?

also would like to add a recorded call conversion with safelychange (ex. netex24), if any russian speaker can give a feedback on it?

The era of free internet ended 10 years ago. The authorities try to interfere with any established processes, but they need time to control them everywhere. Even 10 years ago they didn't care about messengers because it was like one of those things that come and go, but now everything has changed, more algorithms, more data, more control and, of course, more extensive appetites of the government.

And what local messenger do citizens use?
I noticed that WhatsApp is very popular there, Telegram is used by fewer people.
To register in WhatsApp, you need a phone number, and even if you use a VPN, it will not ensure privacy

The funny thing is that messages via WhatsApp and Telegram can be sent without a VPN, but calls don't work anymore. If the ban is formal and no one is fighting it, then there is no ban.
I have not seen or heard of anyone checking people's phones for illegal apps in these countries.
If you fly to Russia, your phone and correspondence can be checked, and there are people at customs who know English, Arabic and other languages.

The time has come for another brief monthly overview of the local boards activity, this time for May 2025. All charts and table are made using data from @DdmrDdmr Merit Dashboard and @TryNinja Ninjastic.space.

Communities marked with * (Pakistan, Bangladesh) unfortunately still don't have their own local boards.

Post activity per local board during May 2025

During the last month, 12794 posts were written across 18 local boards which is an increase compared to April's numbers (12356). Russian local board remained at the top, but Nigerian  is coming closer month after month and its just a matter of time before they overtake them.

---

Active members per local board during May 2025

During May, 1241 members wrote at least 1 post in one of the local board which is a slight increase compared to month before (1236 during May), which is not a surprise given the increase in the amont of posts as well. In this chart Russian still has big advantage over the others, but we will see how that develops.

---

Local board members per amount of posts during May 2025

When it comes to the members who wrote only 1 post, Romanian is the leader with 63%, while in the same time Pilipinas has only 9% of such members.

In the 2-9 posts bracket leader is the French local board with 55%, while on the other side Polish local has only 20% of the members who wrote between 2-9 posts.

And regarding the 10+ posts bracket, Croatian local is the leader with 55% and at the bottom its Romanian local with only 13% of the members who wrote 10+ posts.

---

Merit shared per local board during May 2025

During the above mentioned period 7479 merit was sent acorss local boards that are part of this overview, which makes it a huge increase compared to April's numbers (5873). German local board is back at the top after poor Aoril's performance, narrowly beating Nigerian local while Russian local dropped to for them unusually low 3rd spot.

Majority of the local boards shared more merit than in April, with Nigerian local sticking out (904-1663). At the same time, Indonesian has a big decrease (from 619 down to 304).

---

Merit/Post ratio per local board during May 2025

During May , the average merit per post ratio for local board was 0.58, meaning a big increase compared to April (0.48).

Romanian board is kinda messing up this chart once again, this time with even higher merit/post ratio than last month (just to add that this is not too unusual for less active boards)  followed far behind by German local board, while at the same time Pilipinas remiend the dead last wityh only 0.1 merit per post.

Given the recently appointed merit sources in many local boards, I expect this chart to looks much different in the next overview.

---

Merit senders and receivers per local board during May 2025

During May, 503 members sent while 620 received merit in once of the local boards, which is (an expected) increase compared to April (519 senders/579 receivers). Despite being 2nd on merit amount chart, Nigerian local dominates this chart, leaving all others far behind, and you can say that Indonesian also performed well consdiering their amount of merit sent.

---

Percentage of merited posts across local boards during May 2025

Considering their crazy high merit per post ratio, no surprise to see Romanian board once again at the top with 52% of merited post, while far more active Nigerian, German and Italian are behind at around 30% mark.

---

Merit per transaction across local boards during May 2025

Last but not the least, chart that shows meriting habits of local boards. Here we have Greek local board sticking due fact that they only had 2 merit transaction during may, causing this unrealistically high merit per transaction value, while Romanian (another less active local board) also had unrealistically high number.

---

The most active members per local board during May 2025

And in the end, list of the most active local boards members. This time two members from Russian local board were the most active ones; klarki with 175 and jokers10 with 169 posts while joker_josue  from Portuguese local board was 3rd with 152 posts written in his local druing last month. Keep it up guys!

I will agree with you here because there must be some form of compensation to the victims of this hack, as the lapses are from the CMC itself. Maybe who knows what transpired before the hack occurred? As a result of the trust the victims had in the system to be reliable, since it is an affiliate of Binance and owned by the same person who is well-known and reputable in the industry.

If possible, an internal investigation should be conducted to determine what transpired before the hack so that a  proper solution to it can be proposed to forestall such from happening again in the future.

Les pays occidentaux, pas seulement les USA, sont à la merci d'un lobby pro-Israël puissant. Cela m'apparaît assez clairement.


J'aimerais bien que tu m'expliques comment "Israël" aide la France. Je crois au contraire que l'influence de la France sur le Moyen-Orient était bien plus grande avant "Israël". Il y a sans doute des gens en Occident qui profitent de ça. Mais Madame Michu, la France en général, non, elle y perd pour moi.


Alors ça c'est le délire chrétien sioniste. Aux USA, en effet, en plus des lobbies pro-Israëlien juifs, il y a des lobbies pro-Israéliens chrétiens.


C'est pas à cause de l'antisémitisme ? Ok, je sors...

As what they have been stated base on quoted message below they are going to compensate those people who got compromised this issue.


Source: https://coingape.com/cointelegraph-and-coinmarketcap-hacked-changpeng-zhao-issues-warning/

But I think the number of people got compromise increase together with the amount stolen.

Hopefully this is not a inside job since its crazy if there's a jerk working on their site and will continue to compromise people. But let see the further update of this case.

I was in Dubai recently too. The locals use the 1.1.1.1 app and otherwise some social networks don't work there.
I don't understand the point of these blockades, if it can all be bypassed by installing a free app from the google market.

yep the scrypt algo with ltc and doge merged mined is far superior than btc for p2p payments.


here is an example of why

Won't happen, other coins do that already and no switch to other networks are necessary.
Litecoin is faster, and has a way more convenient fee structure. 

By mid-2025, we can see that inflation is increasing uncontrollably. Measures must be taken to control this inflation. If inflation goes beyond control like this, everything will go out of control. The only way to prevent this is to look at the valuable assets of cryptocurrencies. There will be no way to control inflation other than Bitcoin now and in the future. Bitcoin is the only way suitable for transactions, and there is no system for inflation to increase from here. Bitcoin is the only stable coin that controls inflation.

Why, why are those years? What is so special about them? But, what about on the year of 2008 and before that, when Bitcoin is not yet invented? I think the problem about inflation is already there and probably people have brainstormed about the possible solutions for it.

And I think one of the best solutions they can think of is gold. I'm only saying that there are other solutions too when it comes to the problem of inflation. There are also talks about this before that Bitcoin may not be the best because of its high volatility trait. This is where we can consider a somewhat stable crypto. There are a couple of them that are also well-established.

Is this a bias and hype for bitcoin just because we are investing in and on the bitcoin forum?
Bitcoin is only 16 years old, while our world and economy have been around for hundreds of years, it has gone through many crises and inflations. Before 2009, didn't the world have any other solutions to prevent inflation?

Gold, bonds, oil, real estate...are not the solution and cannot prevent inflation? If they are not the solution and not as good as bitcoin, why are people who invest in them and say no to bitcoin still richer than us and don't even care about inflation?
