Exactly! But we should also consider other people's opinions, like if they don't agree on how Bitcoin works, so be it. Like they have their own basis, and even though they already studied and they have a high IQ, you still can't force them to love Bitcoin, even though we know how good Bitcoin is and how it is solving our problem in banking/finance.

Here's the correct report.
Not P5 trillion, but P273 billion: PSE clarifies market capitalization loss

Still, that’s a huge loss and it happened in such a short time. Imagine if this mess keeps going, it’s only gonna get worse. Better to step out early than end up regretting it, still hoping the economy would bounce back. I don’t even see this as a “buying opportunity” anymore, ‘cause if the market already dumped this hard, chances are it’s gonna fall even further.

He has already won many titles in the past, and I totally agree that the Inoue fight is a dream fight for Casimero, but Inoue keeps ignoring him. If only Casimero had kept fighting and winning, he could have easily created a demand for the fight.
He needs to fight top-level fighters and keep on fighting as long as Inoue is not yet leaving the division.
At 36, he is good for three to four fights, and if he can't have Inoue on these fights, it will be hard for him to leave boxing with a million pesos for his retirement.
Inoue is potentially his multi-million-peso retirement plan and a legacy fight as well.

Your doubt is valid.

just look at this article, Ex-BSP official calls out Malacañang: PSE market cap down P5T since 2024, recovery a long shot

Guidote, IMO, is pretty reliable. She’s known in the market and has built a solid reputation through the years .. I don’t see any reason for her to lie or exaggerate things just for attention.

It’s more believable that the government is packed with corrupt officials who are just trying to hide what’s really going on with the economy. and they know the public would be furious if the truth got out, so they keep spinning the story to save their reputation.

I do not know why I was laughing very profusely and so vigorously when I saw this picture with Casimero beside the hanging bananas hehehehehe.

In any case, I would agree that he can become a champion in this heavier weight division again, if his Japanese promoters can give him a good roadmap towards one of the championships. I reckon the chance of this is not very high. He should go back to his promoters before.

He is totally focused every time there is a fight coming out. I have seen his worst form when he is on vacation, but he can easily return to his top form in time for his fight. Perhaps due to his extensive experience as a journeyman, he can easily adapt to any condition, to any weather and any style of his opponents.

He is an almost complete package; he just needs a good manager to find suitable fights for him, he is running out of time he is already 36 years old and not much fight left in him, he needs quality fight to get back in title contention, Kameda may not be the quality fighter he is looking for but its a fight where he can dominate and show that he is still has it.

there's an old saying that procrastination is the thief of time, I often come across many folks that always regretted not investing in Bitcoin during it's inception several years ago and now it's seems as if they had lost a fortune by not doing so at the appropriate time,
Nevertheless, the best time to invest in Bitcoin was 10 years ago probably, the second best time is now because Bitcoin is the way of the future and with Bitcoin your future is secured financially, procrastinating could be disastrous.

Wasn’t he the one who announced it first, then later took back his words?

Could it be that there’s some kind of cover-up going on since he’s under the executive department? Or is there any way to verify if there really was a wipeout or not, aside from what the SEC chairperson says?

He really looks like he’s back in shape.. you can see it in some of his training videos on his facebook page


.
His body looks bigger now, but that’s totally fine since he’s moving up in weight. he can’t stay at super bantamweight forever.

Now that he’s entering featherweight, who knows, without Inoue in the picture, he might just become a champion again.

Its two sides of a coin, winnings can be harmful to others but it's just a matter of discipline. Some people got hooked to gambling after getting their first win, this made them addicted to it but not everyone is like this. There are others that won and were able to discipline themselves to keep their gambling activities light. It's all a matter of self control, if you are the type of gambler that cannot control greed winning will be a problem

You are very right that Coinbase is not Bitcoin and this is one of main differences Bitcoin is spread out technology that is run by code and users all over world, meaning its key rules such as scarcity cannot be changed by one group of people. Coinbase, on other hand, is single spot, private company that is service that is built on Bitcoin, so it must follow government rules, make business decisions, and is able to change its policies whenever it wants. Therefore, any action Coinbase or any other large exchange takes, such as changing fees or things it adds, does not affect way  Bitcoin network itself works or its ideas, and each user is free to decide whether to use spread out Bitcoin as it is more easy, as compare to single spot services such as Coinbase.

i would argue that's a good thing, no one should be using this shitty (possibly scam) exchange anyway. if they want to drive away potential customers, why stop them?

they don't care about honest reviews, else they would not be posting obv fake reviews in the first place, and they are so bad at it, it's actually funny.
they have more fake reviews here on the forum than on their own website, lol.

so here is another reminder to anyone reading this to stay away from AmlXe.

Right now we only let people swap into Monero (XMR). We keep a lot of XMR on hand because we want to be the #1 instant crypto‑to‑Monero exchange. Expanding to other coins could help us grow, and we’re open to that idea, but it’s not in the pipeline just yet.

Fixed‑rate swaps are definitely on our radar.

Governments can not freeze and seize bitcoins in your non custodial wallets as Bitcoin blockchain does not allow any freeze of bitcoins in non custodial wallets. It's a big advantage of Bitcoin blockchain against altcoin blockchains which have smart contracts that give the founders, developers and governments to freeze and seize altcoins even in users' non custodial wallets. That's big shame and weakness of altcoin blockchains.

Governments can not ban their citizens by owning bitcoins, downloading and installing Bitcoin wallets like Bitcoin Core, Electrum for storing bitcoins, or running Bitcoin Core for their Bitcoin nodes.

Yeah you are right!
Had actually thought about this but my live experience made me to come raise this concern over here, although I never wanted to bring up what I witnessed as an eye witness who was there when it happened live. So it was the case which I turns to asked here because many people has gambled especially the older ones and lose something valuable with them knowing that they are using precious things to gamble or even without knowing that had already used a higher amount to gamble. From what I witnessed live is that “ a man I mean, an old man uses a specific amount to gamble and later run he began to accuse people at home because he has never used or touches that amount to gamble, but unknowingly the wife was watching his clothes and found out the ticket or betting slip from his pocket and when she opened it was the same amount the old was lamenting for” when they asked him he said he never knew when he uses such huge amounts to gamble. Then the wife now asked if he was drunk before going to gamble and he said “No” and they asked him if he was hypnotised to use that amount to gamble and his answer remains the same. I have been witnessing for several moments now but didn’t want to raise the concern here until I found out how often the old would keep doing that. So truly age is also a barrier and should stop gambling whenever they found out that they have gone of age.

You will not find a common trait among those who play the lottery, they do not want to work hard, they want to get rich quickly. And you will notice some other things among them, they do not have a sense of discipline and they are also greedy in nature. Think about how you spend your hard-earned wealth, if you suddenly get money, how will you spend it? The point here is that if you get a lot of money without working hard, it will not be of value to you, you will spend it recklessly.

yes you are right. Whatever coinbase is doing right won't really affect bitcoin although it is against the decentralised nature of bitcoin. However coinbase is just an exchange and they are motive is to expand there business and to make more profit by attracting more users. This will not in anyway affect the nature of bitcoin as being decentralised. Yes coinbase decisions has nothing to do with bitcoin since bitcoin is not being controlled by an exchange.

Please have everyone review the spreadsheet and ensure the respective BTC address is correct. Since we made a lot of changes, I may likely make a mistake.
