"Too good to be true": take all information with a grain of salt

You don't know many times I got fucked in the ass as a beginner believing claims people say.

The most obvious examples are the big flashy "BITCOIN IS DUMPING" with toilet hole mouths or "[insert shitcoin here] PUMPING TO 100X!!!" on youtube thumbnails.

The less obvious is reddit, and back then, when I was new here, people are saying, "X is going to $500", and there's a ton of people shilling and being bullish, and I see it and I'm convinced, it could literally be bitcoin, and I can buy in. They say price will moon, but a day later my buy, it does the exact opposite.

An extreme case was last few weeks when everyone was spamming "doge to 1$" I saw so many newbies buy in from FOMO because it felt like they want to join the train, no matter how big or small to contribute. Some put in more. Well, nevertheless they got rekt.

And then there's PnDs. There's a big ol' sign on the daily discussions warning me on that. Never took part in one. Thank god I found this sub to find what it was.

But yeah. Moral of the story?

• No one knows anything.
• If it's too good to be true, it is.
• Take all information with a grain of salt

Dyor and make your own judgements.

English is outdated!

English is sooo inefficient and slow, there's so many other languages that have bigger vocabulary, can communicate faster and convey ideas better!

Just because it's the number 1° language and most widespread in the world doesn't mean that another one won't substitute it! Network effect isn't that important!

Wait a couple years and you'll see english fall back behind to new and more update languages!

We’re all trying to make money here

So I’m noticing a lot of bashing of other coins/tokens going on, especially with the recent ADA surge, the not too long ago spike of BNB and the BSC tokens. Generally curious, why can’t we all just be happy for each other when someone here is making money and is in profit from their investments? If someone else’s crypto is making them money, no need to be salty about it. We’re all trying to make money here lol (besides the people in it for the tech). I sold my BNB back in 2017 for peanuts and even though I’m salty about that, I’m happy that people who dumped above $300 and even now made money. Besides the obvious pnd scams, let’s be happy for each other 💯

Someone just deployed a smart contract based on the Tiananmen Square massacre on Binance Smart Chain

There has been contention in recent weeks between users, supporters of, and developers of the Binance Smart Chain and decentralized blockchains like Ethereum.

Proponents of decentralization aren't happy that CZ and Binance dishonestly promote their network as decentralized and 'DeFi', with a number of rumors about just how many of BSC's 21 nodes are operated by Binance (some say 11, others have said all 21, some say just a few).

After CZ has started bashing Ethereum and artificially infalted ETH gas fees by making all withdrawals pay 10-30% more than ETH gas station's 'highest' rate, it appears that proponents of decentralization have struck back.

They've launched a DeFi/farming app on BSC about the Tiananmen Square massacre, presumably to force CZ to remove it and end BSC's charade as a 'decentralized' blockchain.

Here is the smart contract address: https://bscscan.com/token/0xb79c9c73e8c7b4be7244e697e6bdb9f511208e9c

This is an interresting test of a 'decentralized' system to see whether Binance removes the smart contract or risks getting on the bad side of the Chinese government. I'm curious to see how BSC reacts and if they try to retaliate somehow.
