Another explanation to a somewhat similar behavior is that they're just trying to influence the market. Many who are hyping the market during the bullish times are only trying to make it even more bullish, to extend the bull run as much as possible. But let's be careful about these personalities. They sometimes say one thing, do another. They're also exhorting everybody to buy the dip, buy the dip, buy the dip. But they're dumping and taking profit. They want people to be rush and emotional, but they're taking carefully measured steps themselves.

It's mainly the whales that do this. I can see a lot of them doing this already for this year. They talk about how 2026 is going to be a good year for bitcoin, some talk about how bitcoin is going to get a new ATH while others even talk about the price hitting 200,000 dollars. While this may be just their speculation, I think it can also be a way to make people buy bitcoin so the price can go up as high as possible then they will take profit before it crashes again.
Well, like you said, we have to be careful.

Although it fluctuates, the current $45,000 of revenue per week is indeed huge. That's not even counting the campaigns of Bitsler, Stake, and others that pay in stablecoins, and other campaigns like review, personal text, or avatar that also pay in Bitcoin.

Anyway, I thought the ranking was based on "marketshare/revenue" but then I noticed that julerz12 is ranked higher than icopress even though the latter has a larger weekly revenue share. So it's about campaign slots.

There are currently 37 bitcoin paying signature campaigns in the forum and that's in line with the historical averages.

I was looking at the list and there are only 32 of them. I wonder if you're missing some campaigns on the list or the total is wrong.

Thanks for the input, It looks like it was my own typo. I counted 32 too and I don�t see it showing 37 in the chart either. That means this was a human issue, not code. Shit happens Tongue

In the first place, Bitcoin isn't a source of income. There are many bank accounts in my country that were closed, funds temporarily frozen, because they declared Bitcoin as source of funds. Whether it's a misunderstanding or not, the point is that Bitcoin isn't a job or a business. It's an investment risk only those who have the money can take.

As far as trading is concerned, that's just doubling the risk. If you hodl Bitcoin, there's risk. If you trade it, the risk has multiplied.

Bitcoin can be a source of income for some people. It's not the same as a regular job, but you can earn it through activities like content creation or development work paid in BTC. Trading profits also count as income. Diversification is smart, but saying Bitcoin isn't a source of income at all isn't accurate.

How does what you have given as example makes bitcoin a source of income other than what the people engaged in those activities you mentioned as paid with just as they can be paid with fiat like the USD. Does that makes the USD a source of income? Or isn't what you do to earn the USD that is the source of income?

Bitcoin is mostly recognised as an investment asset to make profit through market opportunities. And I seem to be in agreement with that notion than refering it as a source of income.

If an investor is shaken by the fluctuations of BTC, it's no investor, it's a fraud.

Or perhaps that's what exactly an investor feels. If an investor is shaken by the fluctuations of Bitcoin's price, he/she's indeed just an investor. If somebody isn't bothered at all by the rise and fall of the price, perhaps he/she isn't just an investor but a believer.

To be fair, however, it might be a matter of how much risk you're taking in getting into Bitcoin. It might be possible one is just investing his/her entire lifesavings into Bitcoin that's why he/she's a bit shaken by its market performance.

I think its also worth to consider that even those committed can shaken up if they expose on something more risky especially if they can handle due to financial conditions.

What I think different on this if they are bothered on those volatilities happening, But if they have good strategy and well financial structure they can survive on the volatile market.

Investor could able to believe on long term on Bitcoin while they are managing those potential risk in responsible way.

Is there anybody who's expecting that a super cycle will happen just because this man has made such tweet? Isn't that too much na�vet�?

But this isn't just CZ actually speaking about the possibility of a super cycle. Many others are. In a way, this is like a movement; self-serving, of course. But to me this isn't as much making a prediction as trying to influence the market. I don't think they're actually seeing something in 2026 that could possibly create a super cycle. They're just saying it to try make it happen.

Of course speculation are what gives rise to the market and not necessarily mean that there is something that would propel the market to achieve that. Yes many people are positive about the market while some are optimistic based on their investments or involvement in one or two coins which they could be expecting a super cycle to happen and of course they would definitely give support to it so that it would likely happen so easily as they expected. If I am not mistakenly, last Year there were several predictions about Bitcoin hitting half a million, which everywhere were shaking and many people hope that it would happen we ends up seeing 126k which many never expected.

Your story makes me wonder how strong gambling's influence is in my culture. I should say you're past your teens when your story happened. Am I right? If I am, I'm glad that you only started gambling on sports matches when you're already kind of old. Here in my country, it's so common for young kids to bet on sports matches, any sports matches for that matter, including Esports, and whether they're players themselves or just watching a game, be it live or on TV.

The high rate of gambling culture in the youth is a sign that there is a change in social values that we should be highly aware of. I have observed that simple access to the internet has caused adolescents to struggle with being able to identify what is good as a healthy activity and what is bad as a speculation that can ruin their lives financially. We should have a healthy competitive edge that is unfilled with the ambivalence of a chase of money. Inculcation of proper financial reasoning will make the difference between weakening future generations to plunge in economical disasters that are likely to be fatal.

It even tops OrangeFren's list of exchanges, both small swaps and large swaps, probably because it offers the cheapest fees and the largest OrangeFren guarantee. If somebody looks for the best option using OrangeFren, he/she might end up using FixedFloat.

Orangefren will only cover your losses if you use Fixedfloat from their site => i.e. do the exchange with their referral link. Otherwise warranty is not possible.

That's how a super cycle is made--everybody talks about it as if it's a thing. Whether that's likely or not doesn't matter. Influencers have got to influence. That's precisely why they're around: to create hype, build confidence, convince investors, and the like. So, they just have to repeat it over and over again until it becomes true.

I think I've already read about this news months ago but, yeah, it's one of the good things happening in 2026. So, indeed, a super cycle might be coming this year. Grin

Yeah let's make it happen, even though that's quite unrealistic for me. Influencers should now accept the challenge to claim this super cycle this year, and by creating hypes and fuds, we may never know, things will slowly turn into reality.

However, we should not also be too much dependent that this will definitely happen this year, but I'm still having high hopes, if not this year, at least it may be possible within the next following years.

RTP isn't odds or winning chance or probability.

Maybe not on a per game or per spin basis, but in the long run it averages out.

It will NEVER average out!

Because you don't have averages!

With a coin toss, it's you and the coin and two possibilities, it will always average out because it can't do anythign else!
Now with the slot it's a dice game with 20 faces one player plays 20 times and he's gone one plays 10 times more than everyone else , one gets to play three times more each time he lands a 6, and one hundred others just throw it once every day!

There is no average for each player because they don't play the same game, if they would all be coin tossing with win or lsoe +1/-1 it would averge but when it's lose/0.10/0.20/0.50/1/2/5 in wins for the same bet spread over millions of bets without the msot important fact of each player playing the same amount it will NEVER average out!

Does the lottery average out? Grin

Quote from: jostorres on Today at 04:19:32 PM

An RTP can be the same as the house edge and a 90 percent of RTP can mean that 10 percent of our bankroll will be deducted as something like a fee for the casino, no matter if we win or lose. So if the RTP is set at 100 percent, then we are not deducted, however like you said, the chance of losing is still there.

You have no idea what you're talking about, right?

Quote from: Darker45 on Today at 03:10:21 AM

RTP isn't odds or winning chance or probability.

Maybe not on a per game or per spin basis, but in the long run it averages out. If you look at it in simple terms, it still goes back to the old saying that casinos always win in the long run. The odds are still tilted in their favor. Now if you�re talking about a true 100% RTP, then who actually has the advantage, the gambler or the casino? None, really. At that point it�s neutral, no edge on either side.

Quote from: hyudien on January 11, 2026, 10:39:24 PM

A little story, I used to always focus on games with RTP above 90%, because my thinking was, the higher the RTP the easier it is to win, until then I found 1 local site and found a game with an RTP of 100%, in short, I still lost, and then I compared it with an RTP game below 80%, there was once a victory in that game, well from there I learned how RTP works, and my conclusion is that RTP is just a marketing tool for the casino.

Because that's not how RTP works!

Let's say a game has 1000% RTP. Yup, one thousand percent!
One hundred people play $100 dollars and they all lose their money, one guy spins once and wins $100 000!
The game RTP is 1000% despite 99% people losing all their money!

Your personal experience is meaningless, RTP is based on all the money played, this is not betting in a sportsbook!
There will be people who will win more than they lose, even with an RTP at 1%!

Quote from: Darker45 on Today at 03:10:21 AM

RTP isn't odds or winning chance or probability.

Quote from: Darker45 on Today at 02:14:03 AM

The good thing about Bitcoin, unlike governments, is that it doesn't impose its system on people. If you prefer to send your coins to a third-party custodian, the network neither block your transaction nor freeze your funds. You're free to do that. It's your decision.

Bitcoin blockchain and network are decentralized and against centralized censorship even MARA pool tried to to this in the past.
Observing Bitcoin mining pools.
Marathon Digital Holdings Becomes the First North American Enterprise Miner to Produce Fully AML and OFAC Compliant Bitcoin.
Marathon Digital Holdings to Launch the First North American-Based Bitcoin Mining Pool, Fully Compliant with U.S. Regulations.

Quote

On the other hand, it also doesn't bow down to the whims of powerful governments. It remains what it is despite regulations. At the end of the day, everybody has the freedom to decide for themselves. But we can always take refuge in the fact that whatever decision people make, Bitcoin isn't necessarily affected. People may choose ETFs, centralized exchanges, IOUs, and the like. It doesn't in any way diminish Bitcoin.

Governments are unable to freeze your bitcoins if you store them in your non-custodial wallets. They only can arrest you legally, and seize your bitcoins but this legal action is at a higher level.

With Bitcoin decentralized blockchain and open-source non-custodial wallets, there is no easy arbitrary bitcoin freeze. With people who still use online websites, centralized exchanges and custodial wallets for storing their coins, they must learn about risks and change their practice as soon as possible.

Events made you scare about custodial wallets, centralized exchanges.

Quote from: Darker45 on January 08, 2026, 12:45:22 AM

Don't worry about it that much. You're one among the majority. It's normal. I believe most bettors are losing overall. But since you're troubled, perhaps it's a signal to minimize your bets. If it bothers you whenever you're losing in gambling, perhaps you're using money that's important.

Anyway, I think it's how closely you're following the sports or leagues that defines your success as a bettor. It's about the level of familiarity. And then you'll also take into account all possible factors. If you treat sports betting seriously, treat analysis as a serious task. As for me, I'm not like that.

Yeah, I think most people gamble in sports similar to any other games.

But, if you are really into research of teams, etc, then I think you can increase your odds a bit.

That's something you cannot do with other games, like blackjack for example, where the odds are fixed always.

In the case of sports betting, research certainly advances the possibilities, so we must first analyze the teams and place bets on the correct possibilities, then in this case our chances of winning will definitely be relatively high.

In the case of sports betting, not everything depends on luck, here we have the opportunity to use our skills towards sports, through which we have to move towards the right decision, and we must use this opportunity, so that our decision is more in the positive direction.

Quote from: Darker45 on January 10, 2026, 01:33:27 AM

I've smiled and laughed in gratitude many times because of losing a smaller amount. On the other hand, I've also slammed my fist in the air for failing to win a bigger amount.

I guess that's just what gambling is all about. What's important is that you're enjoying every moment of it. And also that if you feel like everything is becoming pointless already and you're just continuously placing your bet despite getting bored, you have the control to call it a day and leave.

Well done, you said something wise, it's important to enjoy every moment, both when you lose and when you win. It's funny because we like or at least I don't like betting, we like poker. But if it's something you like, you have to do it, understanding that it's fun that drives everything.

Quote from: Darker45 on Today at 12:59:19 AM

but it seems it only seeks the ban of government employees from making predictions if they have "material nonpublic information" about the particular market. That to me is kind of weak. Why shouldn't everybody in the government be prohibited from joining the prediction market?

Except you can make a case of how we can possibly know for a fact who has 'material non-public info' or not. Because any politician wothout such an information is like every other gambler or predictor and some people could argue that they should be allowed to gamble like every other person. A blanket ban may be best to avoid all kinds of uncertainty and discussions of who knows what.

Quote from: LastKiss on Today at 01:14:06 AM

It�s good news but I doubt the market will suddenly turn bullish in 2026.
There�s still a lot of negative news circulating in the media wars, wallet hacks, the possibility of a recession this year, etc. All of this pushes liquidity toward safer assets instead of risk assets.

I agree that seeing an opposite move is often more probable, because the market doesn�t always give us what we expect and sometimes it's happened and that's the reality. Right now, many people are confused about where the market is actually heading. The 2025 yearly candle closing red has led to speculation that the 4 year cycle might be over and now CZ talking about a �supercycle� only adds more confusion. But for those who are holding for the long term, all of these posts and news are just noise.

My thought is sticking to the 4year cycle that we're likely to see the bearish for this year. But the unexpected could come for Bitcoin and if the supercycle comes, it can be a blessing in disguise and first time(or maybe how many times is it already) that the cycle has broken.

Quote from: Darker45 on Today at 01:33:49 AM

Looks like you're right that it was a news a month ago but the exchanges have kept on posting it just today. There's probably a bump to this news to push the market up.

Quote from: Tongpu on Today at 01:35:56 AM

SEC taking crypto off 2026 risk priorities isn�t a pump trigger, but it does mean less regulatory overhang. That lowers downside risk, even if price chops

It encourages more investors to come and enter since it's lesser risk than what many believed that it's so risky that SEC has to put it on that list.

Quote from: Strongkored on Today at 02:43:21 AM

We should be happy if super cycling really happens, even though influencers or people who have the power to influence the market through their posts are used to saying positive or negative things because their goal is always to influence the market based on what they want to happen, so don't be too influenced, for us retailers it's enough to collect and sell if needed.

It's CZ and sure he's got a huge influence in the market and the investors confidence is with him. I think he's got viral with his posts about those high prices he's mentioned and flash crashes that shown that the dump was quite high price years ago.

Quote from: Upgrade00 on Today at 04:26:09 AM

This news came out some months ago when SEC released their priorities for 2026, the influence of CZ is why it is trending now, he also made another bullish post just after this which suggests he is trying to create a bullish sentiment among traders. That alone is not enough to set off a super cycle or another upward surge.

Yeah, it looks that he's trying to push that narrative so that the market will react and try to form that bullish sentiment.

Let's see if it will be and how powerful his influence will show.

Quote from: Bbluez on Today at 08:03:54 AM

It's bullish news, but the market hardly reacts immediately, fingers crossed.

Keep crossing that fingers, we're on it but the usual cycle of it makes me want to open these fingers.

Quote from: lizarder on Today at 10:21:53 AM

This should be good news, but I'm not sure if it will suddenly become a bull market, because in Bitcoin's history in particular, we've seen many events that could influence the market along the way. The way the cycle forms might not be much different from before, but no one can guarantee anything, especially now that we see so many influencers trying to speak up for certain reasons which can influence the general public when they watch videos and news.

We hope that in 2026, the best momentum will occur which will have a positive impact on Bitcoin's trajectory in the market. Even if this doesn't happen, I personally don't mind, because the fundamental principle is that the investments we make are generally long-term and whatever happens won't affect our attitudes regarding the investment undertaken.

IMO it's best to adopt what you've said that we shouldn't mind that whatever happens, we're just here and calm. And since most of us here are long term holders.

It won't be a problem whether the supercycle as per cz comes or not.

Quote from: LogitechMouse on Today at 12:16:47 PM

The contrarian approach. That's the way it is.

If many believe that it will happen, the opposite will happen. Cheesy

It happened many times, and it MIGHT happen yet again this time.

It is what I am saying and that's why I'm doubting it. But it could be these doubts could be wrong and a sudden push would come for the sake of every long term holder.

Quote from: LogitechMouse on Today at 12:16:47 PM

Supercycle? That might happen, but with the help of the US Government. If a supercycle will happen, we must see the macroeconomic aspect being positive not only towards the stock market, but also to the crypto market as well. Quantitative Easing, more cutting of interest rates, inflation rate going down or whatever it is, "the stars must align" in order for a supercycle to happen. Right now, there's no sign of it happening, and CZ's tweet isn't helping at all. I mean anybody can just say whatever we want to say in X, right?

An extended celebration might happen since I don't see the market going down at least on this month, but I don't see it going up significantly either. I believe it's more of a sideways movement, but I will not be surprised if Bitcoin will at least touch the $100,000 psychological resistance soon.

I guess that CZ's tweet only helps to give more cheer and encourage to those who probably haven't sold some profit yet.

And you're right that there will be more factors needed to see such supercycle if the timing is for this year.

Quote from: Darker45 on December 29, 2025, 11:30:18 AM

We already have fiat. Why should there be a need to use another currency whose value itself is based on fiat? Is it not a superfluous layer? When it comes to practicality, why not use fiat instead? Why use something else? It's a copy of fiat, anyway. But it's a cryptocurrency. So? The beauty of stablecoins isn't in the fact that they're cryptocurrencies. The beauty of USDT, for example, is in the fact that it's a substitute for USD. If only USD were accepted or supported where USDT first thrived, it wouldn't have gained relevance.

well people use stablecoins because it�s easier to do transfers even though it�s backed by fiat compared to if we used fiat in banks not to mention the fees are quite higher as well in banks but not much with stablecoins
