@TeamYouTube I'm also more than happy to hop on the phone / Google Meet if that would help.

Hi @TeamYouTube, thank you for your response and the link. Over the years, I've spend hours the reviewing the exact provided link, I’m still unable to find answers my issue and need assistance. A few years ago, I began managing an already-monetized YouTube channel. During the transfer, I removed the old monetization and linked my existing AdSense account, created around 2008 but inactive for years. Shortly after, I received an "invalid click" notice. The channel had minimal traffic at the time, as I was planning to rebuild it, and I did not click on any ads. During those few days, the channel traffic and earnings was near zero. (Since my account is no longer there, I can't get you exact numbers). There was little to know traffic (which confirms no bot or repetitive activity of any sort) I did not engage in any fraudulent activity, such as clicking my own ads or paying others to do so. I believe this issue may stem from my dormant AdSense account, which had an unnoticed balance for years. (maybe dormant for as long as 15+ years, if I remember correctly) My company plans to invest significantly in building a YouTube presence, but I need this issue resolved. I don't even care if Adsense is reinstated immediately, I would just like to get things in good standing so that I can apply again once I've had a chance to fully grow my channel. I’ve been a loyal Google user: a Gmail beta user (20 years or so?), a Google Ads customer (spending tens of thousands of dollars), a long-time Google Workspace user & admin for multiple companies, and a YouTube Premium subscriber. It feels like I got caught in an automated mix-up. I’m sure a quick human review will clear things up and show I’m in the clear. Please help! Sorry for writing a book... this means a lot to me and has been stressing me out.

@TeamYouTube Help! My dormant AdSense account was flagged for invalid clicks when I linked it to my YouTube channel. No recent activity, but monetization is blocked. Can you assist with resolving or transferring the channel? DM for details. Thanks!

My alt-coin portfolio has had a 64% total return in the last 2 weeks. I'll take that.

@GorillaPodcast1 I agree. $DOT and $AVAX are in my tradeable universe and not far behind. $DOT almost made this week's cut (I rotate weekly). AVAX treated me well earlier in the year. A few other notable mentions are $XTZ, $LINK, and $SUSHI.

@bdthomas Consider monitoring $AVAX and $DOT for potential growth. Their networks support innovative projects that could drive value, enhancing your alt-coin strategy.

Alt coin wise I only hold a max of 5 positions, equal allocation. It’s systematic, so there’s no decision making, just execution. I’ll repost the backtests this weekend. It’s designed to catch trends and compound quickly, rather than optimize every single trade.

@bdthomas Are you selling $YFI at a loss? The market cap is super low and there are only a bit over 36k coins available.

For personal and professional reasons, I'm thinking about getting a place in Florida starting this winter with the plan of spending 1/2 the year in Florida and 1/2 the year in Boston (where I live now). TBH, I have not spent much time in Florida so I'm looking for some advice/suggestions. I have friends in Tampa but I'd rather be on the eastern side of the state. I have friends in Palm Beach, Jupiter, Fort Lauderdale, and Miami so these are all options. I'll probably take a trip down to Florida in the next couple weeks to start looking around but I'm wondering this... if you could live anywhere in Florida, where would it be and why? Thanks for the help :)

It's nice to finally see a bit of alt-coin momentum. No changes this week. Hold $SUSHI, $AVAX, $IOTX, $FET, $CVC. My eyes are on #BTC taking out $70k.
