Hello,
I am having a heck of a time figuring out my conversion options (term whole) for my current Transamerica Super Trendsetter 15-Year Level Term Plan, and any help about what the boilerplate in this specific plan says would be appreciated. My goal is to convert it as close to the end of the convertibility period as is safely possible, in order to pay the lower term premium while I can, without triggering the need for another medical check-up/physical.
I asked my agent about convertibility and he said that they are typically convertible for 5 years after being written. I wanted to be sure so I called Transamerica and the rep said it's convertible for the whole 15-year term. With this discrepancy, I asked how to request a copy of my policy be emailed to me, since I couldn't find it in the customer portal. Prior to building a relationship with a "real life" agent, I originally bought it online through an online 3rd party broker (PolicyGenius) and never received a physical copy -- I'm a pack rat with vital records, auto/home records, etc.! I requested my policy online and they sent me a confirmation of insurance. Not good! Then I called and they sent me a form that I either needed to fax or mail in with a $25 check. I initially faxed the form in a couple months ago... nothing! Then I mailed it with a physical check about a month ago... nothing again!
So here I am, trying to figure out what my options are because I do *NOT* want to miss my window to convert without a health update, due to certain changes in my health.
Here are some relevant details from my Transamerica portal... Thank you for any help! I'm getting confused/frustrated by the inconsistent answers I'm receiving and the lack of responsiveness from Transamerica.

I wanted to share a thought experiment that helped me explain the idea of why the belief in empiricism alone is flawed.

1. We’ve created relatively lifelike simulations in games already, imagine we fast forward 200 years and virtual worlds resemble our world, and mimic all of our laws of physics with precision.
   
2. Now imagine there is an AI in this game world. It’s has a body and is a character, the AI is its consciousness. When the AI looks around at his world, everything seems just as real as when we look around our world - with all the laws of physics being replicated down to the quantum realm.
   
3. Now imagine the AI is incredibly smart and quickly notices that the laws of physics of his game world started to emerge at a single point in the distant past, and the fundamental building blocks of his reality is binary code (the Zeros and Ones that make up reality).
   
4. Confident, the AI uses empiricism to explain its own emergence via evolution, and follows the equations of its physical world to determine that time itself began with the binary. He concludes that it doesn’t make sense to ask about a time before the binary because time started with the binary and the binary code must have always existed.
   
5. Further, even though he notes its highly unlikely that the binary code could have ended up in the precise configuration it is to give rise to his laws of physics, he theorisez that an infinite number of permutations of the binary code are possible so there is a multiverse, so of course he must expect to arise in one of the few universes that could give rise to him: the anthropic principle.
   
6. The AI becomes comfortable in his deductions, feels that he can explain his existence, and is arrogant in his assertion that nothing exists outside of what he can empirically test and his reality is the only and therefore the ultimate reality that always existed.
   

Now imagine that you are that AI, that this world is the simulation, and that God is the ultimate reality that we deny because of our cute logical deductions.
The truth is the AI could not test for our existence from within his reality because he is confined to his physical reality, there is nothing of our reality in his reality for him to test. His expectation of using empiricism to search for the ultimate reality is flawed.
A priori - if he was less arrogant he could have deduced that the binary is not a self-sufficient cause - why does it exist instead of nothingness. He could have further concluded that his reality may be an illusion, a simulation. He could have finally concluded that there must be an eternal, self-sufficient, self-explanatory ultimate reality that gives all reality its presence. He could have believed in God.
I bring up this example to make you question your comfort in denying the existence of an ultimate reality due to lack of physical evidence within our reality - it’s an illogical expectation. The only way we can learn something more about the ultimate reality beyond what we have logically deduced a priori, is if the ultimate reality communicated with us and told us - therefore demonstrating the need for revelation.
If you are in doubt about God, or have questions or a response to this, I’d love to hear from you and can drive this argument further. (It’s far more detailed than the above, this is the cliff notes version).

Kansas

Despite voters overwhelmingly rejecting a constitutional amendment that would have allowed abortion restrictions in the state, Kansas Republicans passed several anti-abortion bills into law late last month, overriding the governor’s veto.
The first bill, HB 2436, makes it a crime to “coerce” someone into having an abortion. Democrats attempted to widen the scope of the bill to include all kinds of reproductive coercion, like pressuring someone to become or stay pregnant and prohibiting their access to birth control, and enshrine a right to “reproductive autonomy.” Republicans voted down the amendment.
The second bill, HB 2749, requires medical facilities and providers to (1) ask patients their reason for having an abortion and (2) report the data, including personal information about the patient, to the legislature every other year. Gov. Laura Kelly (D) agreed with the objections of Democrats and reproductive rights advocates, saying when she vetoed the bill that there is “no valid reason to force a woman to disclose to the legislature why she is seeking an abortion.”

• Democrats offered numerous amendments to HB 2749, including one to require men to report to the legislature their reasons for having a vasectomy and another requiring men to report why they are seeking treatment for erectile dysfunction. Republicans rejected all of them.

Finally, the Republican legislature overrode Kelly’s line-item veto allocating $2 million to the Pregnancy Compassion Awareness Program, created last year with a different veto override. The program is run by an anti-abortion group called the Kansas Pregnancy Care Network, which refers pregnant people to crisis pregnancy centers designed to use misleading information to discourage them from obtaining an abortion.

Louisiana

Louisiana’s legislature is doubling down on its anti-abortion laws, passing bills to increase criminalization and refusing to add exemptions to its abortion ban.
Earlier this month, the Louisiana House took up a bill passed by the Senate that would make it a crime, punishable by jail time, to possess abortion-inducing medication. SB 276, sponsored by 23 Republicans and one Democrat, was initially written to create a punishment for coercing someone into an abortion without their knowledge or consent (e.g. spiking a drink). However, House legislators recently added an amendment to the bill that classifies mifepristone and misoprostol as Schedule IV substances alongside some opioids and benzodiazepines. A pregnant person possessing the drugs for their own use could not be charged, but others who intend to distribute them to pregnant people seeking an abortion or store them for their own potential future use would face up to ten years in prison.

“Neither is a drug of abuse or dependence, and that is what the controlled drug schedule is for,” said [emergency room Dr. Jennifer] Avegno of the abortion drugs. “It makes no scientific or medical sense to put these drugs in the same category as Xanax or Valium.”
Mifepristone is a drug that blocks a hormone called progesterone, which is necessary for a pregnancy to continue. Misoprostol causes uterine contractions, causing the body to expel the pregnancy tissue. Mifepristone is also used to treat Cushing’s disease, a hormonal disorder. Misoprostol is also used to induce labor, manage a miscarriage and in the treatment of ulcers. Neither are addictive. “People do not go around taking them and getting dependent and having bad outcomes because of it,” said Avegno. “It’s like saying your blood pressure medicine or insulin is a drug of abuse.”

A week later, Republicans on the House Criminal Justice Committee voted 7-4 to reject a bill to add rape and incest exceptions to the state’s total abortion ban. House Bill 164, written by Democratic Rep. Delisha Boyd, would have allowed girls younger than 17 to have abortions if they became pregnant as the result of sexual assault.

“That baby [in the womb] is innocent … We have to hang on to that,” said committee member Rep. Dodie Horton, R-Haughton, who voted against the bill. Rep. Lauren Ventrella, R-Greenwell Spring, also voted against the legislation, saying the proposed law would be difficult to enforce. Teenagers who had consensual sex might feign rape or incest in order to get access to abortion services, she suggested…
Dr. Neelima Sukhavasi, a Baton Rouge doctor specializing in obstetrics and gynecology, also implored the lawmakers to approve Boyd’s proposal. She and her colleagues have delivered babies for pregnant teenagers, including mothers as young as 13, since Louisiana’s abortion ban went into effect two years ago. These young pregnant people can experience health complications that affect them for the rest of their lives, Sukhavasi said, and sometimes don’t have the mental capacity to handle the births. “One of these teenagers delivered a baby while clutching a teddy bear,” she told the committee.

The Committee also killed three other bills: HB 56, to allow abortions in cases of spontaneous miscarriage or nonviable pregnancy; HB 63, to clarify that the removal of an ectopic pregnancy is not an abortion under state law; HB 293, to add protection for physicians who do not intend to induce abortion by prescribing certain medications.

Texas

Meanwhile, in Texas—a state that pioneered the war on women and reproductive rights—a man initiated legal action to sue people who helped his former partner obtain an out-of-state abortion.
The man, Collin Davis, filed a petition in a state district court seeking permission to launch legal depositions to collect evidence for a potential lawsuit under a Texas law that contains civil liability for anyone who “aids and abets” an abortion. According to his lawyer, Jonathan Mitchell (who crafted the anti-abortion law), Davis is seeking to sue “co-conspirators and accomplices…involved in the murder of [his] unborn child.”

“Fathers of aborted fetuses can sue for wrongful death in states with abortion bans, even if the abortion occurs out-of-state,” he wrote. “They can sue anyone who paid for the abortion, anyone who aided or abetted the travel, and anyone involved in the manufacture or distribution of abortion drugs.”
Molly Duane, a senior staff attorney with the Center for Reproductive Rights, described Mitchell’s statement and general approach as misleading “fearmongering.”
“People need to understand that it is not a crime to leave Texas or any other state in the country for an abortion,” said Duane, who is working with lawyers from the firm Arnold & Porter to represent the woman and others targeted in the Davis case. “I don’t want people to be intimidated, but they should be outraged and alarmed.” Duane described the woman’s relationship with Davis as “toxic and harmful.”

Mitchell also represents a different man who pursued a similar claim last year: Marcus Silva engaged Mitchell to sue the friends of his estranged wife for allegedly helping her obtain abortion pills. Evidence later revealed that Silva knew about the plans beforehand and did not intervene, likely intending to use the threat of legal action as a way of forcing his partner to halt divorce proceedings.

Monday’s counterclaim illustrates, in painstaking detail, exactly how Silva—aided by Mitchell—allegedly deployed this tactic. It was only after Brittni’s abortion was complete that Silva revealed he knew about the plan and, according to the lawsuit, threatened to turn her in if she didn’t submit to his continued abuse. He even showed the police photographs of messages discussing the possibility of an abortion. “Once I finally got home with the girls he had been drinking and he told me that he knew,” Brittni texted one friend. “He’s using it against me.” In another message, she wrote, “Now he’s saying if I don’t give him my ‘mind body and soul’ until the end of the divorce, which he’s going to drag out, he’s going to make sure I go to jail for doing it.” […]
The counterclaim points out another flaw in his argument: Silva himself “is responsible for the alleged injury for which he seeks to recover.” He “knew that Brittni planned to terminate her alleged pregnancy and acquiesced in accepting Brittni’s actions,” so “it would be unconscionable to permit him to benefit by changing his position now.” His claims, in short, are barred “by unclean hands,” because he effectively entrapped his estranged wife—covertly discovering her plan to terminate the pregnancy, then allowing her to go through with it for the express purpose of blackmailing her into staying with him.

Indiana

A three-judge panel of the Indiana Court of Appeals last month unanimously recognized a religious freedom challenge to the state’s complete ban on abortion.
The case, brought by Hoosier Jews for Choice and four anonymous women of various faiths, alleges that the ban interferes with “their sincere religious beliefs that require and direct them to obtain abortions” criminalized since the law took effect in 2023. According to Jewish law, a fetus does not have personhood until birth, and abortion is required if the pregnancy endangers the life or health of the mother.

Brief of Hoosier Jews for Choice (and other plaintiffs): As indicated by the declarations of numerous rabbis, Judaism teaches that a fetus becomes a living person only at birth, and prior to that is considered part of the woman’s body, without independent rights. Abortion should occur and is mandated to end a pregnancy that may cause serious consequences to a woman’s mental or physical heath. Judaism also recognizes that physical health risks are not limited to those likely to cause substantial and irreversible impairment of a major bodily function. Judaism stresses the necessity of protecting the physical and mental health of the woman—a life—over the potential for life present in a zygote, embryo, or fetus. Therefore, restrictions that prevent a woman from obtaining an abortion where compelled by Jewish law, which mandates that the woman act to protect her physical or mental health, impose a substantial burden on that person’s religious exercise.

Under Indiana’s Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA), “a governmental entity may not substantially burden a personʹs exercise of religion,” defined to include “any exercise of religion, whether or not compelled by, or central to, a system of religious belief.” This means that arguments about whether plaintiffs are strictly observant are irrelevant; the law protects sincerely held religious views regardless of whether that view is idiosyncratic or unorthodox. However, even a law that imposes a substantial burden on the exercise of religion can be enforced if it is “the least restrictive means of furthering [a] compelling governmental interest” (the strict scrutiny test).
The state argued that abortion does not carry “religious significance” and, even if it did, the abortion ban satisfies strict scrutiny because it is “sufficiently narrowly tailored” to “further the State’s interest” in “protecting human lives in the womb.” Throughout Indiana’s brief, the state attempts to use science to back up fetal personhood, extending developmental physiology to make unfounded claims that protected life unquestionably begins at conception:

In lower courts, the State’s compelling interest is not up for debate. In Cheaney v. State, the Indiana Supreme Court held that the State’s interest in protecting unborn children is “valid and compelling” from “the moment of conception.” …A basic understanding of biology supports these holdings. “That human fetuses are human beings is a scientific fact, not a theological claim.” Regardless whether an individual person believes this, “the scientific consensus” is that “[d]evelopment begins at fertilization,” after which the newly created “unicellular zygote divides many times and becomes progressively transformed into a multicellular human being through cell division, migration, growth, and differentiation.” …. Science thus tells us that “[t]he act of performing an induced abortion during any stage of pregnancy, from fertilization up to birth, ends the life of an innocent human being.” The State’s interest in protecting unborn fetal life at any stage from intentional destruction accordingly is nothing less than “compelling.”

A panel of the Indiana Court of Appeals—made up of a Republican appointee and two Democratic appointees—unanimously ruled against the state, upholding a lower court’s injunction against the abortion ban as it applies to the plaintiffs. In the process, the court laid out a path for religious freedom challenges to abortion bans in other states and at the federal level.

The trial court found that absent a preliminary injunction, Plaintiffs would be irreparably harmed by the loss of their religious freedoms guaranteed by RFRA. A loss of First Amendment freedoms, which include the right to free exercise of religion, “for even minimal periods of time, unquestionably constitutes irreparable injury.”... Without a preliminary injunction, Plaintiffs will suffer the loss of their right to exercise their sincere religious beliefs by obtaining an abortion when directed by their religion and prohibited by the Abortion Law. They also have shown their sexual and reproductive lives will continue to be restricted absent the injunction and as a result of the Abortion Law.

Originally posted in a GHB subreddit. But, basically any subreddit with GHB in the title seems to be more focused on recreational use, so reposting here.
My therapist mentioned GHB as a highly effective drug for narcolepsy. Have been looking into it but not really getting a good feel for it. So, figured I'd just ask some questions. Which hopefully will be a benefit for other people starting or considering GHB. Only looking for therapeutic responses, not recreational.

1. Have seen it mentioned that low dose is stimulating and higher dose is sedative. Have seen a number of references for it being taken at night to improve sleep quality. But, do some people take a lower dose during the day to combat times when they are sleepy during the day with a stimulating effect?
2. Should you expect mood altering side effects that will likely go away at first? Or is that just how some people respond?
3. Which drug and form do people prefer and which do they not like and why? Is there a general go to rule of thumb for GHB prescribing? Are there non GHB narcolepsy drugs that people prefer, over or in combination with GHB?
4. Seen withdrawal mentioned a lot when stopping the medication. Is that to be expected? Does it happen at all dosage levels or more common at higher doses? How difficult can withdrawal be for prescribed doses?
5. Experience when combined with other drugs for comorbidities? Such as Adderall, Modafinil, Armodafinil, Strattera, Guanfacine. Or drugs for disorders that may be relevant to other people like for bi-polar, anxiety, depression, autism spectrum, etc.?
6. How much potential for long term side effects? For example, at prescribed doses Adderall gave me anhedonia, decreased energy levels, worse executive function, high cortisol, weight gain, hormone imbalances, reduced motivation, low libido, muted emotions. Which are not usually mentioned about Adderall.
7. Any other information you think is relevant for a GHB noob or someone considering it as a therapeutic option?

After reading the article, it looks like another misleading headline designed to generate buzz by the sales team at the WSJ.
But I still want to be cautious in my strategy and mitigate any risks.
Curious what do others think of the article?
The article needs a subscription, so I pasted the text below.
Wall Street went on a home-buying spree. Now, more lawmakers want to stop it from ever happening again.
Democrats in the U.S. Senate and House have sponsored legislation that would force large owners of single-family homes to sell houses to family buyers. A Republican’s bill in the Ohio state legislature aims to drive out institutional owners through heavy taxation.
Lawmakers in Nebraska, California, New York, Minnesota and North Carolina are among those proposing similar laws.
While homeowner associations for years have sought to stop investors from buying and renting out houses in their neighborhoods, the legislative proposals represent a new effort by elected officials to regulate Wall Street’s appetite for single-family homes.
These lawmakers say that investors that have scooped up hundreds of thousands of houses to rent out are contributing to the dearth of homes for sale and driving up home prices. They argue that investor buying has made it harder for first-time buyers to compete with Wall Street-backed investment firms and their all-cash offers.

Investors of all sizes spent billions of dollars buying homes during the pandemic. At the 2022 peak, they bought more than one in every four single-family homes sold, though more recently their activity has slowed as interest rates rose and supply became tighter. Two of the largest home-buying firms, Invitation Homes and AMH, are publicly traded companies, while a number of other companies, backed by private equity, hold portfolios of tens of thousands of homes nationwide.
Companies that buy single-family homes say their businesses provide renters the opportunity to live in desirable neighborhoods where they otherwise couldn’t afford to buy.
With home prices and rents near record highs around the U.S., legislators and officials at all levels of government have become more active on housing issues. States have passed new measures to fund more affordable housing, to allow builders to bypass local zoning laws and to make the eviction process more favorable to tenants.
Most calls to block large companies from snapping up homes come from liberals, but some conservatives also show an inclination to crack down.
This “corporate large-scale buying of residential homes seems to be distorting the market and making it harder for the average Texan to purchase a home,” Republican Gov. Greg Abbott wrote on X last month. “This must be added to the legislative agenda to protect Texas families.”
Close to equal numbers of voting-age Republicans and Democrats said they would support a measure to block Wall Street firms from buying homes, according to a new study funded by the University of California, Santa Barbara, and the Manhattan Institute, a conservative think tank. The study gauged opinion from 5,000 renters and homeowners in urban and suburban ZIP Codes.
Proposals to curb investors might be popular with voters, but so far they haven’t gained much traction in legislatures. None of the bills in Congress or in any of the state houses has reached a floor vote.
Advocates for the single-family rental industry, such as the National Rental Home Council, oppose such legislation and blame rising prices on an undersupply of new-construction homes. They also point to the relatively low number of homes owned by institutional investors, defined as those companies with portfolios of 1,000 homes or more. Some research estimates these companies own 3% to 5% of American rental homes.
In some American cities, institutional investors hold a much larger share of homes than they hold nationally. In Atlanta, nearly 11% of all rental homes in the five-county area are now owned by three real-estate companies, a recent study by researchers at Georgia State University found. A 2022 analysis by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development said 21% of Atlanta rental homes were owned by some large institution.
Rep. Nikema Williams (D., Ga.), from the Atlanta area, in December co-sponsored the End Hedge Fund Control of American Homes Act in the U.S. House. The act “won’t solve all of the problems, but it will definitely make an impact,” she said in an interview.
Critics of regulation note that many of the largest investors have bought very few or no homes in the past year. “The great trade is done,” said John Burns, founder of the eponymous housing research and consulting firm. “So what are you trying to stop?”
Smaller investors that own between 10 and 99 homes have stepped up their share of home buying this year, Burns said. Some of the proposed legislation would also target these smaller investors.
The bills in the House and Senate would cap rental-home ownership at no more than 50 homes for many companies, requiring them to sell off any more they already own. A bill in Minnesota, meanwhile, would limit ownership to 20 homes.
Bills to block landlords in the Ohio and Nebraska state legislatures were written in response to a small number of investors buying up hundreds of homes in a handful of Cincinnati and Omaha neighborhoods.
Louis Blessing III, a Republican representing suburbs of Cincinnati in the Ohio Senate, introduced a bill to tax large landlords so heavily that they would likely feel compelled to sell their properties. Blessing said he is concerned about real-estate companies developing monopoly power in some neighborhoods, while putting starter homes further out of reach for home buyers.
“It’s an antitrust in spirit bill,” he said.

Introduction

In this post, we'll be discussing something called "Virtue Ethics." This is a normative theory of ethics that's most associated with Aristotle, though has in recent times experienced a resurgence of sorts from modern philosophers, some of whom have tweaked and modified it, and in doing so have created different branches on this tree of moral theory. We will be comparing these different flavors of Virtue Ethics to that of the New Testament's, pointing out where they're similar, as well as highlighting where the NT differs (and is actually superior) from the heathens' views.
I want to preface all this with a verse and a warning:

"Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ."-Colossians 2:8

The entire Bible, over and over again, warns against syncretism. It's a running theme throughout to condemn the practice, with this verse being one of the more explicit ones to do so.
Mapping the ideas of Pagans (and especially Greek philosophers) onto the Scriptures has always resulted in people severely misinterpreting the Bible, as looking at the Word of God through a Hellenistic lens is and always has been extremely innapropiate to the author's original intent.
Whenever Greek philosophy or ideas are referenced, they're always portrayed in a bad light or otherwise used to make a point. Examples of the latter could be found in the apostle Paul's writings, as he was a fully educated Roman citizen of his day, and so he made use of known Hellenestic philosophy and literature (that he would have been familiar with) by redefining their terms and ideas in a way that would be consistent with the theology of his own religion. The apostle Peter did the same within his own epistles whenever he mentioned "Tartarus," the abyss/prison for certain disobedient angels that rebelled against God, despite the fact that the word has its roots in Greek mythology and not Hebrew religion (though, the belief that there were a group of spiritual beings that rebelled against the highest authority in the heavens was one technically shared between the two ancient cultures; even if the parties involved were vastly different, as well as the contexts of the rebellion itself).
The affect Hellenstic philosophy has had on the way people think (even subconsciously) can still be felt to this day, and can be seen in the confusion modern "Christianity" has brought on through its adoption of Gnostic teachings such as Dualism or the inherently fatalistic views that many unknowingly hold due to the error of Classical Theism.
While yes, I will be commending the heathen (unbeliever) whenever they are right with their ideas as pertaining to this subject, I will also show where they are wrong.
Let's begin.

"What Is Virtue Ethics?"

First, we need to define some terms and point out the differences between this view and others within the larger debate of normative ethics.
There are three major approaches in normative ethics, those being: Consequentalism, Deontology, and Virtue Ethics. The following are definitions of the terms:
Consequentialism – a class of normative, teleological ethical theories that holds that the consequences of one's conduct are the ultimate basis for judgement about the rightness or wrongness of that conduct.
Deontology – theories where an action is considered morally good because of some characteristic of the action itself, not because the product of the action is good. Deontological ethics holds that at least some acts are morally obligatory regardless of their consequences for human welfare.
Virtue Ethics – theories that emphasize the role of character and virtue in moral philosophy rather than either doing one’s duty or acting in order to bring about good consequences. The virtue ethicist would argue that actions themselves, while important, aren't as important as the character behind them. To the virtue ethicist, consequences are also important, but they would say that good consequences ultimately flow from a virtuous character who has made virtuous decisions. Theories of virtue ethics do not aim primarily to identify universal principles that can be applied in any moral situation, instead teaching that the best decisions can vary based on context, and that there are only some actions that would be universally evil, only because those actions could never flow from a virtuous character in the first place (e.g., rape).
Aristotle's idea of ethics is in an important respect different from most people's, especially today. Heirs as we are to Kant’s idea of duty – there is a right thing that one ought to do, as rational beings who respect other persons – and to Mill’s idea of utility – the right thing to do is that which produces the greatest good for the greatest number – most of us see ethics as concerned with actions. "The function of ethics is to help me see what I ought to do in a given situation," the modern says. Aristotle’s approach was different. His ethic is not so much concerned about helping us to see what we ought to do, as about what sort of person we ought to be.
Aristotle was concerned with character, and with the things that go to make up good and bad character; virtues and vices. His sort of ethic does not look at our action to see if it fulfils our duty, or produces a certain outcome, such as the greatest good of the greatest number, and therefore merits approval. Instead, it looks at us; at the character behind the actions, to see whether we merit approval.
Comparing Virtue Ethics with philosophies such as Deontology and Consequentialism, we are able to divide ethical theories into two kinds; act-centered theories and agent-centered theories. Kant’s (Deontological) and Mill’s (Utilitarian) approaches are act-centered, because they concern themselves with our actions, whilst Aristotle’s is agent-centered because it concerns itself with the character of a person, which in his view was ourselves and our own dispositions that prompt our actions.
Both approaches have ardent present-day advocates, and so both are alive and well. Virtue Ethicists are dissatisfied with the answers ‘modern’ act-centered philosophy offers, and look for a more flexible, person-centered approach that takes more account of the subtle varieties of human motivation. Those in this camp see ethics as being about people – moral agents – rather than merely about actions. Of course, your actions matter. But, for Aristotle and his present day advocates alike, they matter as expressions of the kind of person you are. They indicate such qualities as kindness, fairness, compassion, and so on, and it is these qualities and their corresponding vices that it is the business of ethics to approve or disapprove.
All this seems simple and uncontroversial; there are two ways of looking at an action to evaluate it morally. You can take the action in isolation and judge it, or take the agent and judge him or her.
Virtue ethicists argue that act-centered ethics are narrow and bloodless. What is needed is a richer moral vocabulary than just ‘right and wrong’. There are subtle but important differences between actions that are good because they are kind and those that are good because they are generous, and those that are good because they are just. Likewise, there are subtle but important differences between actions that are bad because they are selfish and those that are bad because they are cruel and those that are bad because they are unfair. These, and many other, distinctions are lost when we talk simply about doing one’s duty, or promoting utility. Questions of motive and of character are lost, in these asceptic terms. Modern moral philosophy won’t do: it is cold, technical and insensitive to the many kinds and degrees of value expressed in human actions. Ethics is more than just thought experiments and hypotheticals about what would be the right course of action to take in any given situation we might conjure up from the comfort of our armchair. Ethics is about doing, and about context and character.

The Different Kinds of "Virtue Ethics"

Virtue Ethics has has been developed in two main directions: Eudaimonism, and agent-based theories.
Eudaimonism (Aristotle's view) bases virtues in human flourishing, where flourishing is equated with performing one’s distinctive function well. In the case of humans, Aristotle argued that our distinctive function is reasoning, and so the life “worth living” is one which we reason well. He also believed that only free men in the upper classes of society (i.e., the aristocrats) could excel in virtue and eschew vice, being that such men had greater access to the means in accomplishing this task as they had the wealth and resources to better perform their distinctive function of 'reasoning,' and thus "live well." For the Eudaimonian, inner dispositions are what one ought to focus on in order to cultivate virtuous traits, and thus a virtuous character.
In contrast, an agent-based theory emphasizes that virtues are determined by common-sense intuitions that we as observers judge to be admirable traits in other people. There are a variety of human traits that we find admirable, such as benevolence, kindness, compassion, etc., and we can identify these by looking at the people we admire, our moral exemplars. Agent-based theories also state that the motivations and intentions behind an action are ultimately what determine whether or not said action is actually virtuous. Whereas Eudaimonism understands the moral life in terms of inner dispositions or proclivities to act in certain ways (whether righteous or wicked, just or unjust, kind or cruel, etc.), agent-based theories are more radical in that their evaluation of actions is dependent on ethical judgments about the inner life of the agents who perform those actions, that is, what the motivations and intents are of a person.
[Note: While both Eudaimonism and agent-based theories are both agent-centered, Eudaimonism is not to be confused with an agent-based theory. Both branches concern themselves more with agents rather than acts themselves, but Eudamonism focuses on the self to improve whereas the agent-based theory focuses on others to improve.]

Common Critcisims Toward Secular Forms of Virtue Ethics

Firstly, Eudaimonism provides a self-centered conception of ethics because "human flourishing" (here defined as simply fulfilling our base function as humans, which is "reason" according to this view) is seen as an end in itself and does not sufficiently consider the extent to which our actions affect other people. Morality requires us to consider others for their own sake and not because they may benefit us. There seems to be something wrong with aiming to behave compassionately, kindly, and honestly merely because this will make oneself happier or "reason well."
Secondly, both Eudaimonism and agent-based theories also don't provide guidance on how we should act, as there are no clear principles for guiding action other than “act as a virtuous person would act given the situation.” Who is a virtuous person? Who is the first or universal exemplar?
Lastly, the ability to cultivate the right virtues will be affected by a number of different factors beyond a person’s control due to education, society, friends and family. If moral character is so reliant on luck, what role does this leave for appropriate praise and blame of the person? For the Eudaimonian, one ought to be born into a status of privilege if they wish to excel in being virtuous. For the proponent of an agent-based theory, one ought to be born into a society or family with good role models and preferably be raised by such, else they have no moral exemplars to emulate.

The New Testament's Virtue Ethic

The New Testament authors didn’t sit down and do a self-consciously philosophical exercise, for this was not what they were concerned with. They were concerned with giving practical instruction to disciples of the faith, and merely trying to express the ethical implications of their spiritual experience. That being said, we know the apostle Paul was familiar with the writings of Aristotle. We can actually identify places where Paul displays knowledge of Aristotle and incorporates some of the philosopher's ideas into his own epistles. Before we do this, however, it's important we refute common misnomers about what the Bible teaches concerning ethics in general.
You probably have heard many attack the ethics of the New Testament as being primitive and simplistic. "God dictates universal commands to follow: 'do not lie,' do 'not divorce,' 'do not insult.' And the only motivating factor is escaping hellfire and obtaining the reward of eternal pleasure." But in reality, this is a gross misrepresentation of the ethics laid out in the NT. I will argue the NT advocates for a form of virtue ethics, instead of claiming the NT contains a form of deontic ethics, as it is so often assumed.
Elizabeth Anscombe was one of the most influential virtue ethicists of the 20th century. Her work helped to revive virtue ethics in the modern era, however she also criticized the ethics of the Bible for promoting a form of ethics different than what Aristotle promoted:
"...between aristotle and us came Christianity, with its law conception of ethics. For Christianity derived its ethical notions from the Torah. (One might be inclined to think that a law conception of ethics could arise only among people who accepted an allegedly divine positive law..." (Modern Moral Philosophy, vol. 33, no. 124, 1-19)
We've already dealt with the issue of the Torah in another post. The Torah is not laying down moral laws, but describing justice in the form of ancient Near Eastern wisdom literature. But does the New Testament teach a deontic form of ethics? Anscombe might appear justified in her claim, as some "Christian" theologians have explicitly taught the ethics of the NT is deontic.
However, other theologians have argued the ethics of the NT is best characterized as a form of virtue ethics. In a study of the NT, we'll support this notion. As noted earlier, one of the central features of this approach to ethics is that the aim of ethics should be on living a virtuous life. Other forms of ethics focus on directing actions when confronted with a moral dilemma, but for virtue ethics every action is a moral or immoral action because all of our actions contribute or do not contribute to living a virtuous life. In other words, for a virtue ethicist, everything we do will contribute to living a fulfilled life. Now, the NT promotes a similar idea with a slight modification. The NT changes the distinctictive function and purpose for man in Eudaimonism from "reasoning" to loving God and others instead, and thus "living well" is changed from self-centered 'flourshing' (as defined by Aristotle) to glorifying God instead. The apostles taught everything we do contributes to living a life that glorifies God:

"Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God."-1 Corinthians 10:31
"And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him."-Colossians 3:17

So we see the same idea in Paul, that everything we do can be seen as a moral or immoral action. Everything we do should be seen as contributing to living a life that glorifies god or not. As a believer, the aim is not just doing good actions to avoid punishments, but to see everything we do as glorifying God. On secular virtue ethics, all our actions are either advancing a good life or not: nourishing your body contributes to living a good life. In a Biblical context: taking the time to properly dress contributes to living a good life, and not giving into the sin of sloth. So all our actions can be moral actions in this context, and so likewise for Paul and Jesus, all we do can contribute to living a life that glorifies God.
Since God made our bodies to thrive and enjoy life, we should nourish our bodies so we can thrive as God intended for our bodies to do, thus ultimately glorifying Him. Since we were created to experience and feel enjoyment, laughing and enjoying things throughout life glorifies God as well since we're experiencing emotions that God created to be experienced. Everything we do should be to glorify God, and often all that is is living our lives in the way that they were intended to be lived. Biblical ethics is very much more than merely performing right actions, but living a virtuous life that brings glory to God.
As Jesus said:

"Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind."-Matthew 22:37b

It is also important to focus on what it means to love, which is an important aspect of what it means to be a believer. Paul makes the radical claim that to love is the entirety of the law of God:

"For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself."-Galatians 5:14

Jesus also taught that to love God and love others were the two greatest commandments (Mark 12:28-31, Matt. 22:34-40). He also extends the commandment to love beyond one's brethren, and to love our enemies (Matt. 5:44). Loving those around us is central to what it means to be a believer (John 13:34; 15:12-17, Rom. 12:10; 13:8, 1 Cor. 13:1-8; 16:14, 2 Cor. 8:8, Eph. 4:2; 5:2, Phili. 1:9, Heb. 10:24, Jam. 2:8, 1 Pet. 1:22, 1 John 2:10; 3:23).
One might suggest this is no different than the Golden Rule: "Do unto others as you would have them do to you," or a Kantian rule: "I ought never to act except in such a way that I could also will that my maxim should become a universal law." In other words, "to live well is to perform good deeds or actions and nothing more." But an important point about loving someone is it cannot be done through actions alone. For example, one could buy a gift for their spouse to cheer them up. However, one could perform this action merely because they value performing right actions without any love for the person. One could donate to charity because it is the right thing to do, and not because she cares for the people who would benefit. In such scenarios, they can be seen as idolizing moral laws, not necessarily caring about helping others.
But to love someone requires more than merely performing right actions. You cannot love someone and not care about who they are as a person and where they are heading in life. To love is to will the good of the other. Jesus chastised the Pharisees of his day for only performing right actions, but not loving their brethren in their hearts. His criticism follows Matthew chapter 22, where Jesus says the greatest commandments are to love. The implication is the Pharisees perform proper actions, but have the wrong motivations for doing so. James Keenan puts it like this:
"Essential to understanding this command is that we love our neighbors not as objects of our devotion, but rather as subjects; that is, as persons. Thus, we cannot love others only because God wants us to do so, since then we would love them as means or as objects and not as persons. We can only love one another as subjects, just as God loves us." (Jesus and Virtue Ethics: Building Bridges Between New Testament Studies and Moral Theology, pg. 86)
A critic may bring up that verses of the NT are still phrased as commands, and therefore the structure implies duties were the central aspect of Christian ethics. But the importance of duties is not foreign to Virtue Ethics. Instead of being central to the ethical framework, duties flow from a virtuous character. Virtues are active and have certain demands for which a person must fulfill in their active behavior.
According to Aristotle, knowledge of the virtues gives us practical wisdom in how to properly act. Duties flow from the understanding of the demands of virtues. To put it another way, for virtues to manifest in persons, they have certain demands that must be fulfilled. For the believer, the command of love flows from being virtuous and aligning oneself with the character of God. Commitment to the character of Christ, who perfectly carried out the will of the Father, allows us to perform right and proper actions.
The NT also contains lists of virtues the believer ought to emulate, the most famous of these is in Galatians chapter 5:
"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law." (vss. 22-23)
Now, the connection with Aristotle cannot be more pronounced. The Greek phrase "against such there is no law" is almost identical to what we find in Aristotle's politics (3.13.1284a). It seems clear Paul is teaching a similar ethical framework to what Aristotle advocated for. Paul is teaching that the believing community ought to be persons who display key virtues, and that their conduct would not need to be regulated by a law. Instead, their character should be the standard others can measure themselves by. Romans chapter 2 is also a place we see references to Aristotle, where Paul notes that when Gentiles do what the law requires, they are "a law unto themselves" (vss. 14-15). In other words, they do not need to be told to act a certain way. They have the proper virtuous character that directs their actions, to do the good the law requires. Paul is advocating in Galatians that believers should think in a similar way.
So in Galatians 5, we have affinity with the teachings of Aristotle, and in other lists of virtues throughout the NT we see a similar idea, which is that Christians were meant to display virtues primarily (Rom. 5:3-5, 1 Cor. 13:1-8, Col. 3:12-17, 1 Tim. 3:2-3; 4:7-8, Jam. 3:17-18, 2 Pet. 1:5-8). From that, good deeds will properly manifest in our actions.
Anscombe made a great point on what the focus of ethics should be:
"It would be a great improvement if, instead of 'morally wrong', one always named a genus such as 'untruthful', 'unchaste', 'unjust'. We should no longer ask whether doing something was 'wrong', passing directly from some description of an action to this notion; we should ask whether, e.g., it was unjust; and the answer would sometimes be clear at once." (Modern Moral Philosophy, vol. 33, no. 124, 1-19)
Interestingly enough, Paul lays out a similar idea in explaining Christian ethics:

"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you."-Philippians 4:8-9

In other words, the central aspect on living a Christian life was on what is virtuous, not on what is lawfully right or wrong. Right actions flow from whatever is honorable, true, and pure. Correlating with this is how Paul responds to the Corinthians who claimed that "all was lawful." Paul reminded them the emphasis is not on what is lawful, but on what is good for building a virtuous character:

"All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not."-1 Corinthians 10:23

One's main focus ought to be on what is good, not on laws that dictate behavior.
One of the key aspects of Virtue Ethics is the idea we ought to learn from virtuous teachers and imitate them. A virtuous character is obtained by imitating what a virtuous person does. This parallels a key aspect of Christian ethics. Imitating Christ was (and still is) crucial to living a virtuous life:

"For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:"-1 Peter 2:21

Paul says in Romans 8:29 that Christians were predestined "to be conformed to the image of his Son." Jesus often taught his followers to do as he does (Matt. 16:24, Mark 8:34, Luke 6:40; 9:23, John 13:15, 34). Paul says in 1st Corinthians 11: Be ye followers [i.e., imitators] of me, even as I also am of Christ" (vs. 1). Hebrews 13:7 says to imitate the faith of the patriarchs. 1st Thessalonians 2:14 says to imitate each other. And jesus taught to imitate the good Samaritan from his parable (Luke 10:37). Imitating virtuous teachers was key for Christian ethics.
Aristotle tended to compare acquiring virtues with that of learning a practical skill, like playing an instrument or learning how to become a builder. Such practical skills are best picked up when trained by a master of that particular skill, because a teacher can always provide more insight through lessons they learn from experience. For example, an expert salesman can provide examples from his experience of what works with specific customers that a sales textbook could never provide. Many professions today require on-the-job training or experience before even hiring an applicant. The reason is: experience is key to learning a profession. Merely acquiring knowledge from a textbook or an instruction manual is often insufficient to master a skill, so why would mastering the skill of virtue be any different?
In the NT, a believer is to see the world through the eyes of Christ and to love as he loved. One cannot learn how to be a virtuous person without knowing what that life would look like. A key component of Christian theology is that the Messiah perfectly represented the Father and His will on earth, to show us how to properly live as God intended for man. This central tenet of the NT aligns well with agent-based theories of Virtue Ethics, and modifies it so that the person of Jesus Christ is the universal exemplar that one is meant to emulate. We are called to imitate him through our actions, thoughts, and desires, and to conform ourselves to the way he lived. As Paul said:

"I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me."-Galatians 2:20

If learning from Christ is key, we should briefly take a look at the Sermon on the Mount, which is said to be one of Jesus' most important series of teachings. Daniel Harrington notes:
"The sermon begins with nine 'beatitudes' (see 5:3–12) in which Jesus declares as 'happy' or 'blessed' those who practice certain virtues, and promises them an eternal reward and the fullness of God's kingdom." (Jesus and Virtue Ethics: Building Bridges Between New Testament Studies and Moral Theology, pg. 62)
Jesus laid out what a life for those that follow him look like in detail. One ought to be merciful, pure in heart, a peacemaker, thirst for righteousness, etcetera (Matt. 5:2-10). The Sermon does not merely include what right actions are, but includes sections on proper desires. Not only is it wrong to murder, but it is wrong to desire to murder or wish ill on someone (Matt. 5:22). Avoiding adultery is good, but one also should not covet after another man's woman in their heart (Matt. 5:28). In other words, merely avoiding immoral actions is not enough. One must also not desire vices. A believer is called to desire what is good.
The Sermon is not necessarily laying down universal moral commands. For example, Matthew 5:9 says, "Blessed are the peacemakers," but this doesn't imply absolute Pacifism, as it would contradict passages in the Old Testament where it explicitly says there is a time for war (Ecc. 3:8). The point of the Sermon is to teach what a virtuous life ought to look like. A follower of Christ ought to use reason to know what is proper to do in various circumstances. For example, in Matthew chapter 6, Jesus offers guidance on how one ought to pray by presenting the Lord's prayer (vss. 9-15). This is a model of how to pray. It's not a command for followers to always pray in this exact way.
In reality, the Sermon on the Mount mixes in exhortations, parables, hyperbole, declarations, commands, etc. It is best understood as displaying what a virtuous life ought to look like. It's not a law code. Building on this, it's important to understand a proper action is context sensitive. Under Virtue Ethics, one should not necessarily apply a universal maxim to every situation. Sometimes the proper action will depend on what is at stake, who is involved, what is the background, etc. Aristotle advocated against the idea there were fixed universal laws that dictate actions, and instead he argued the right action would depend on the circumstances one finds themselves in. Although the ethics of the NT may be a bit more strict, it still places an emphasis on being sensitive to the context of situations.
In 1st Corinthians chapter 8, Paul lays out instructions on how to deal with meat that has been sacrificed to Pagan idols. Instead of stating an absolute prohibition against meat sacrificed to idols, Paul instructed Christians to use reason to come to the proper ethical decision based on context. In other words, the right action is not determined only by a law. Instead, the Christian had to make the proper decision based on the context: if eating caused another to stumble, then you ought to abstain; if not, then there's no harm done. The value of the action depends on the context.
A Deontologist might reply that there's still a universal law given here: that one should always abstain if it's going to cause another to stumble. This objection can be addressed by asking: how are we to know if eating the meat will cause another believer to stumble? To answer such a question, one must be sensitive to the context, which in this case would be knowledge of the fellow believer and your relation to him. It is the context that determines the right action, not a universal law. Moreover, Paul states that the primary goal for the believer should be to love (1 Cor. 13). The first consideration is once again not the rightness of action, but having love for one another. From this, knowledge of the proper action will follow.
Paul often explains that living a proper life as a believer will take work and practice. He reminded Timothy to attend readings, practice what these things mean, and keep a close watch on himself (1 Tim. 4:13-14). Elsewhere, he directs that all believers must work on their faith (Phili. 2:12). Beyond this, he also noted that not all Christians would have the same gifts, and to accept that this was normal (1 Cor. 12). For some, certain things may be a hindrance, whereas for others it is acceptable (Rom. 14:2-4). What matters is that we love and build one another up (1 Thess. 5:11). Right actions flow from love and knowledge of virtue. Rules are not the primary motives that dictate our actions; rules are secondary in this regard.
An interesting case can be studied with regards to divorce in the Gospels. Jesus preaches against divorce (Mark 10:7-9) and it is often interpreted to mean "divorce is always wrong, regardless of circumstances." However, it should be noted the prohibition on divorce is not a universal law. The context can affect whether or not a divorce is permissible. Jesus says that one can divorce over sexual immorality. Paul also has a situation where divorce is permissible, namely if one spouse is an unbeliever and wishes to leave (1 Cor. 7:15). The implication one can derive is divorce is not ideal, but there are circumstances where it may be the proper action to take. Given the other features of Christian Virtue Ethics we already covered, the proper action to take will depend on the circumstances and what the virtuous agent thinks is the most loving thing to do. A universal prohibition on divorce is not a Christian ethic. Instead, one ought to discern the proper action from circumstances. However, it's clear in most cases divorce would not be the virtuous thing to do.
Building on this, it's important to note that within NT ethics, certain acts are always wrong. For example, idolatry and sexual immorality are always wrong (1 Cor. 10:14, Col. 3:15, 1 Pet. 4:13). There are no possible scenarios where it would be okay to rape, because such an act would never flow from a virtuous character. But this concept is not foreign to theories of Virtue Ethics. Aristotle noted that for some actions, no qualifications could make them virtuous. Actions such as rape or murder are always wrong, because they would never flow from a virtuous character. So it's not as if a Virtue Ethicist cannot claim that some actions are always wrong. They simply are qualified as being unable to flow from virtue, whereas actions like lying or waging war could be considered virtuous for the right reason.
Now, despite Christian Virtue Ethics having many similarities with Eudaimonism (Aristotelian ethics), there are also numerous differences beyond what we've already noted. One of the deficiencies of how Aristotle lays out his ethical theory is that it is essentially an all-boys club. Aristotle writes mainly to aristocratic men, excluding women and slaves. In his view, women were inferior to men and slaves lacked the necessary rational faculty. But the Christians rejected this mentality, as the teachings of Christ and the apostles were available to all (Matt. 28:19). Paul said, "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus" (Gal. 3:28). Peter wrote that all Christians were part of the priesthood of Christ (1 Pet. 2:5). Jesus had women followers (Luke 8:2-3), and they were entrusted with delivering revelation (Mark 15:40–16:8). What we find throughout the NT is a radical change to how women were viewed in the ancient world. Paul is also likely building on Aristotle's household structure and refining it. David deSilva says the household codes of the NT are "...following the pairs laid out as early as Aristotle to such a degree as to suggest that these were standard topics in ethical instruction" (Honor, Patronage, Kinship & Purity, pg. 231). But Paul adds an important preface: submitting to one another out of reverence for Christ (Eph. 5:20-21). DeSilva says:
"...husbands, we cannot then ignore the distinctively Christian addition they bring to this arrangement; husbands are to be subject to their wives as well." (Honor, Patronage, Kinship & Purity, pg. 233)
Thus Paul doesn't break down the traditional perspective on the structure of the family, but he does add the idea that we all must submit to each other in reverence, love, unity, and cooperation because all are equal before God. There is no explicit mention in the NT calling for the abolishment of slavery, but it should be noted that Paul taught that slaves should be seen as equals. In the letter to Philemon, Paul is clear that his slave is no longer "as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved" (vs. 16). Thus, within Christian ethics class distinctions were supposed to evaporate. All were brothers and sisters of one family.
An important aspect of Christian ethics is that it wasn't a standalone ethical theory. It's embedded in the larger Christian worldview. The ethical framework is dependent on Christian doctrines. For Aristotle, his ethical theory is for men who were raised well. This is why these specific men desire to be virtuous and perform right actions. As for why the believer does good and desires to be virtuous, it's not because one was raised well, but because they have been activated by the power of God's Spirit (John 3:6, 1 Cor. 12:13). For believers, the reason as to why we desire to be good and virtuous is because the Spirit of God has regenerated us. He loves us so we can love others (1 John 4:19). One is meant to look to the life of Christ and what he has done by dying on the cross, to know that we are loved and forgiven. This in turn is meant to activate a good life, having seen what we have gained and been forgiven of. He calls and activates us to do similar to those around us. This is a more open system for people of all groups and classes. One only has to call upon the name of the Lord to be included. It does not require a specific gender or to be raised a certain way.
The goal of Aristotelian ethics is to achieve 'eudaimonia.' However, within the Bible the goal is as the Westminster Shorter Catechism puts it: "Man's chief end is to glorify God, and enjoy Him forever." Since the central aspect of Biblical Eschatology is that humans will continue on forever in resurrected bodies, the aim of ethics is more than living a good life presently. Living a good life now is important, but it was only one aspect in the Christian worldview. Humans are meant to live beyond this life, so the aim is also about building virtuous souls that will continue on. The importance of this is more crucial than it may seem at first. Paul said that we must all appear before judgment, so that "every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad" (2 Cor. 15:10).
Being a virtuous person requires integrity, because one will still have to answer to God after death. If one can commit an evil act and no one finds out, then from the outside perspective he or she may still appear virtuous. Culturally speaking, the ancient world was very different from our own. All wrongdoings centered around public honor and shame. One did good to receive public honor, and one did not do what was bad to receive public shame. Right and wrong were connected to one's public honor and shame in the ancient Greco-Roman world. Thus good and evil were public ideas, not personal ideas. Ethical demands were grounded in the community in one's public appearance
The Biblical idea of an omniscient God who cared about our ethical status laid a foundation for integrity and personal guilt to emerge. Now one ought to do good because he is beholden to God, not just the community. Believers are to remain focused on God's approval and on the actions that lead them, regardless of the world's response. This lays down fertile ground for integrity to emerge. So the Biblical worldview has another important element built in that encourages ethical behavior, regardless of the honor it brings. One ought to do good because of a commitment to God not, because it might bring honor to one's name publicly.

Implications for Preterists

Paul believed that the Second Coming would happen in his generation, and prescribed certain things in the NT on the basis of that belief. An example of an exhortation that would no longer apppy to us today would be 1st Corinthians 7:24-29, where Paul argues that the times him and his fellow Christians were in called for celibacy, being that the Lord was fast approaching. It wasn't a sin if you did get married, of course; it was just harder to serve the Lord in this context if you had a family to worry about. Thus, Paul encouraged being single.
So, we need to be careful when reading the NT and determining what prohibitions or exhortations are still applicable to us today. Context is key.

First of all, yes, her kit is decent. but being "decent" isn't good enough anymore when you have "broken".
Hoyo isn't afraid of making her bad, because they know we will pull for her anyways. In fact, I think Hoyo will try to make her kit bad just for them to sell the solution later (probably a support with a mix of HMC and RM's kit). That is just bad character design principle, and I don't want that to happen.
Take a look at Acheron. Her kit is so broken you can basically bruteforce any content currently in the game with her. And her team comp isn't as restricted as firefly's. Granted, at E0 her team comp is somewhat restricted, but not to the point that only one team comp exist. Even then, her E2 enables a lot more team combination. Meanwhile firefly, even at E6, still only has one strong team comp.
Then there's Boothill. While he's not broken, he's still a pretty decent damage dealer. From what I see, he's able to deal damage around 500k-700k on weakness break with enhanced basic attack. Even without break, his kit seems to be pretty decent, able to hit 60/200 crit easily thanks to his trace while maintaining around 400% break effect without Harmony MC or Ruan Mei. While Boothill is break oriented, this is pretty much what I would expect of a hybrid character, unlike firefly's kit.

Problem with Firefly's kit

To me, it seems like the devs wanted her kit to be a hybrid, but doesn't know what to do. This is supported by two reasons:
First, she needs a lot of ATK, yet all of that ATK is useless on break builds. Break damage does not scale on ATK (See the wiki or Guoba's post), so I don't know why they have this trace on her. She also needs a lot of break effect, making her build priority being break effect > ATK > speed, and not allowing her to build crit.
Second, her enhanced skill has a huge damage multiplier, yet again is mostly useless on break builds. Her enhanced skill deals 400%/200% damage on primary/secondary targets hit, up to 580%/290% with 360% break effect. Now usually, destruction characters (or blast type attacks) only deals damage at around 300%/150%. 400% is on a level of hunt character's ultimate damage. While her damage multiplier is huge, it is useless if you can't build crit on her, resulting in only 30k-40k damage on her enhanced skill.
And for those of you who thinks that we should build her as either break build or crit build, I need to tell you something:
It does not have to be mutually exclusive, and boothill is the proof of that.

What could be improved on her kit

(Do note that this is just a bullet point on what could be improved, and while some of them can work together, some are mutually exclusive. Do also note that the numbers are pretty much arbitrary and you can put any number you think is good yourself. Do tell me if you have other ideas or what improvements should work together)
There are several improvements that I think is possible on her:

• Instead of ATK -> BE, change the trace to BE -> ATK

"For every 100.0 of SAM's ATK that exceeds 2400.0, increases SAM's Break Effect by 6.0%, up to a maximum increase of 60.0%." -> "For every 10% break effect, increase SAM's ATK by 6%, up to 250% break effect" or something like that.
This change allows her to forgo ATK entirely. With ATK not a problem anymore, she can freely build crits for her kit.

• Change her effect RES trace to crit rate or ATK traces

I'm personally not a big fan of non-damage related traces on damage dealers. I think should change it to crit rate traces, or if it's too powerful, ATK traces could also work. This also adds value to her E4 a bit, if you're looking to get that.

• Decrease her BE requirement for DEF ignore trace

"If SAM is in Complete Combustion with a Break Effect that is 250.0%/360.0% or higher, additionally ignores 30.0%/40.0% of the target's DEF when attacking." -> "During Ult, If BE is higher than 150%/250%, gain 30%/40% DEF ignore."
This allows her to further build her stats for a hybrid build.

• Add increase crit on her kit

We could add boothill's trace effect into her kit. Probably something like "During ult, increase her crit by 20%/100% crit rate/crit damage."

• Increase her toughness damage

If they really want her to synergize with super break, might as well increase her base toughness damage on her enhanced skill. I believe right now she has 90/45 base toughness damage on her enhanced skill with primary/secondary target, and granted, that is pretty big already.
But for comparison, boothill has 60 base toughness damage on enhanced basic attack, with 150 total toughness damage on max stack trickshot. Gallagher, which is a sustain, has 30 AoE base toughness damage on ult, and 90 on enhanced basic attack.
Most elites have 300 toughness or above, and most bosses have 360 toughness or above. Therefore I think it's still fair for her to have 120/60 base toughness damage. That way, with all buffs considered, she's going to deal around 240 toughness damage on primary target. This will prevent her from losing turns on her ult to reducing enemy toughness.
Or at the very least, increase the weakness break efficiency on her ult to 100%.

• Make her enchanced skill deal break damage outside of break

This is pretty counterintuitive for weakness break mechanic, so I'm going to put it in a "I don't want this, but it's possible" category.
Since her skill damage multiplier is already high enough, they can do something like "A percentage of this skill's damage is considered as break DMG.", though I don't know how to calculate this as break DMG. Perhaps instead of level multiplier in regular break DMG, it is replaced by the skill's damage.

• Rework her BiS relic's DEF ignore

Not really related to her, but I think 18% DEF ignore on break damage isn't good enough. We already have quantum set that gives 10% DEF ignore just by existing, and 20% for quantum weak enemies. Prisoner set also has an easy requirement, 18% when there's 3 DoT on enemy. I think it's should be either 10%/18% DEF ignore on all attack, or 15%/24% DEF ignore on break damage.

What I think is good for her kit

Currently I have two separate ideas on what changes is the best for her kit. One is for Hybrid build, and one for break build. Here's the changes:

• Changes for hybrid build

1. Rework trace "For every 100.0 of SAM's ATK that exceeds 2400.0, increases SAM's Break Effect by 6.0%, up to a maximum increase of 60.0%." -> "For every 10% break effect, increase SAM's ATK by 6%, up to 250% break effect"
2. Rework trace "If SAM is in Complete Combustion with a Break Effect that is 250.0%/360.0% or higher, additionally ignores 30.0%/40.0% of the target's DEF when attacking." -> "During Complete Combustion, if SAM's Break Effect is 250.0% or higher, additionally ignores 40.0% of the target's DEF when attacking. Furthermore, If SAM's Break Effect is 360.0% or higher, Increases SAM's weakness break efficiency by 100%."
3. Effect RES trace -> Crit rate trace
4. Rework Ultimate "Upon entering the Complete Combustion state, ..., increases SAM's Weakness Break efficiency by 50%" -> "Upon entering the Complete Combustion state, ..., increase SAM's crit rate and crit damage by 20%/100%."
5. Change Enhanced skill "Deals Fire DMG equal to 0.5 × Break Effect + 400% of SAM's ATK to the target enemy. At the same time, deals Fire DMG equal to 0.25 × Break Effect + 200% of SAM's ATK to adjacent enemies. A maximum of 360% Break Effect is calculated." -> "Deals Fire DMG equal to 0.4 × Break Effect + 400% of SAM's ATK to the target enemy. At the same time, deals Fire DMG equal to 0.2 × Break Effect + 200% of SAM's ATK to adjacent enemies. A maximum of 250% Break Effect is calculated."

I think this is the best changes for her, since players will have an easier time building her kit. With this, you could also run break firefly with decent damage on her skill. Though this number is probably still too overpowered, so you can balance it a bit more for a better hybrid kit.
One of the problem is that this kit is pretty similar to boothill's, and I really don't want her to be just a destruction boothill. So I made a second changes for her break build.

• Changes for break build

1. Increase enhanced skill's toughness damage to 120/60
2. Effect RES trace -> ATK trace
3. Change trace "For every 100.0 of SAM's ATK that exceeds 2400.0, increases SAM's Break Effect by 6.0%, up to a maximum increase of 60.0%." -> "For every 100.0 of SAM's ATK that exceeds 2000.0, increases SAM's Break Effect by 6.0%, up to a maximum increase of 60.0%."
4. Change trace "While in Complete Combustion, attacking enemies without Fire Weakness can also reduce Toughness by an amount equal to 55.0% of the original ability's Toughness Reduction." -> "While in Complete Combustion, attacking enemies without Fire Weakness or weakness protected enemies can also reduce Toughness by an amount equal to 75.0% of the original ability's Toughness Reduction."
5. (optional) Change BiS Relic effect "If the wearer's Break Effect is 150.0%/250.0% or higher, ignores 15.0%/24.0% of the enemy target's DEF when dealing Break DMG to them."
6. (optional) Change E6 "While in Complete Combustion, increases SAM's Fire RES PEN by 12.0%. When using the Enhanced Basic ATK or Enhanced Skill, increases the Weakness Break efficiency by 50.0%." -> "While in Complete Combustion, increases SAM's Fire RES PEN by 24.0%. When using the Enhanced Basic ATK or Enhanced Skill, increases the Weakness Break efficiency by 100.0%."

If they wanted firefly to be a break character, then I think this is the best changes for her. Though compared to my changes for hybrid build, I think this is still too underpowered, so again, adjust the numbers as you see fit.
Though, this kit still doesn't remove her reliance of super break, since regular break damage doesn't scale off character's toughness damage. At the very least, if she's going to rely on super break that much, her high toughness damage is going to give her a lot of damage.
So, what do you think? Do you think her current kit is good? what changes would you like to see in her kit?
Repost: Goddammit I got a typo on the title

Even the students who've organized well and always scored inside the highest percentiles in all their mocks can get stumped by the non-MCQ questions in CAT 2024. Also known as TITA questions – ‘Type in The Answer’ – non-MCQ CAT questions are designed to be confusing. With no selections to pick from and lengthy answers, students can fast lose valuable minutes with out ever knowing in the event that they have an appropriate solution. TITA questions in CAT are acknowledged for their better difficulty tiers, poor accuracy, and time-eating nature. Get Started your CAT Exam Preparation with CAT Exam Online Coaching.
But these questions also include a hidden prize – not like the MCQs with stringent poor markings for wrong solutions, non-MCQ CAT questions haven't any negative marking in any respect. This makes them an engaging bet to attempt. With the proper method, college students can maximize their probabilities of bolstering their normal score with TITA CAT questions whilst saving time.

What are non-MCQ questions in CAT?

Non-MCQ or TITA questions had been delivered in the CAT examination by using IIM Ahmedabad in 2015. And ever due to the fact that then, they’ve been a ordinary feature in all CAT assessments. What separates them from the ordinary CAT questions is the lack of options. Unlike MCQ questions, which are observed by way of 4 choices – one of that's correct – TITA questions most effective have a textual content field. Students want to type in the answer the usage of the on-display screen keyboard.
Another thing to remember is that those questions don't have any bad marking. Candidates are provided three marks for correct solutions and lose none for wrong ones. This caveat makes it tempting for college students to attempt as many non-MCQ questions in CAT as possible. But those questions are framed to bleed time, i.E., they've a better issue stage and lower accuracy rate. Moreover, the absence of alternatives makes reverse deduction and guesswork obsolete. Students should remedy the entire question with the aid of hand to get to the solution. Even if they could come to be with the ideal one, there’s the danger of losing an excessive amount of treasured time on them and missing out on attempting other questions.

So, should you even attempt the TITA questions in CAT?

The trick lies in incorporating the non-MCQ questions inside your wellknown method for the paper in preference to searching at them one at a time. Your stop intention need to be to attain 45-60 marks on the general examination. If you may acquire that without the non-MCQ questions, then try this. If you sense some TITA questions will help you attain that focus on score, paintings with that.
Continue analyzing the weblog to apprehend the exact phase-clever approach for non-MCQ CAT questions.

How to address the non-MCQ questions in CAT 2024?

Just like you break down your strategy for MCQ questions primarily based at the kind of question and topic, you need to do the identical even for the non-MCQ CAT questions.

VARC TITA questions

You can count on everywhere between five-10 TITA questions within the Verbal Ability segment. These questions will commonly be divided into the subsequent classes:

• Para jumbles
• Para summary
• Odd sentence out/misfit

For VARC, the TITA questions largely observe the same format as the regular MCQ questions. This is one segment where trying TITA questions can prove to be exceptional. Para summaries and ordinary sentences may be solved speedy using the equal method you use for MCQs.
However, our mentors recommend that the TITA para jumbles have to handiest be attempted on the cease if spare time is to be had.

DILR TITA questions

With around 5-eight non-MCQ questions expected in DILR, this is the only section students have to be maximum wary of. It is straightforward to wander off in logical reasoning questions and lose tune of time. Moreover, finding the proper method to fixing the question can also take time. The equal applies to records interpretation. DI is usually calculation-heavy and can have answers strolling into a couple of decimal locations.
According to our mentors, TITA questions in DILR ought to handiest be attempted if you can right now visualize the perfect method to fixing it. Accuracy in those questions may be low, so basic mistakes should be averted. Another lure is using the on-display screen calculator. Punching numbers is likewise time-consuming, gobbling up precious seconds. Instead, attention on memorizing all numbers’ squares, cubes, and roots to store time.
Join the CAT Best Online Coaching to level up your CAT preparation.

QA TITA questions

The quant section may have the most TITA questions, numbering round eight-15. These questions can come from any subject matter inside the quant syllabus. To get a higher idea of the extraordinary subjects and the most essential ones, study our weblog on CAT syllabus.
Learn to perceive the core concepts being tested within the QA TITA questions. This will permit you to filter out the questions you can try quick and the ones you cannot based totally on the standards you’ve studied. With no opportunity to reverse engineer the answer from the options, getting to the precise answer can be complicated, even when you recognize the ideas. So, only attempt these questions ultimately when you have time to spare.
Non-MCQ questions in CAT want to be approached very judiciously. Instead of being tempted by way of the no poor marking clause, choose the TITA questions objectively. Remember, the accuracy stage of TITA questions is at the decrease quit. Solve as many TITA questions as you can from previous years’ papers. This will provide you with a better idea of what to expect. If you are nonetheless careworn, you may sign on for the IMS Mock CAT Test Series. With 18 SimCATs and the past 3 years’ papers with video answers, you’ll have access to a extensive variety of questions and approaches to remedy them. This will substantially give a boost to your method to non-MCQ questions in CAT 2024.

Hey all!
I've been lurking here since I uploaded my first video on YT, and I've found some of your threads here useful. So I thought I'd give back with a write up on my monetization journey, which, although not lightning fast, has been medium-fast (two months and two weeks from my first upload).
Who am I?
I'm a fashion photographer, with 10+ years of experience in my main field, and 3+ years of experience in the generative AI field. I started working with generative AI for a project with Vogue Italia right before the main publicly available applications were released to the wider public (Dall-E, MidJourney, Stable Diffusion), and since then my work has been a mix of traditional photography and generative AI. And that's why I became a part-time Tuber.
Finding a niche
While I was implementing gen AI more and more in my fashion photography works, I was struggling to find professionally oriented tutorials on YT. There's a ton of content about gen AI, covering news, tools, and starting out with it, but there was close to no in-depth, real-world use cases focused tutorials. So I though - hey, I'm using it in my own works. I know a ton of fellow professionals who can use it too. I can't be the only one looking for this kind of content. Maybe I should create that content myself.
Now, I don't know what you're interested in, but in order to find a niche, I'd do the same: find something you like and know about, and check if there's some aspects of it which no one covers, and you know you can cover yourself.
From the comments and commission requests I've gotten in two months, I was right. Which leads us to...
Offering value
My content is long and incredibly tedious. Honestly, it's quite boring to the layman. But it's necessary for anyone who wants to learn something applicable in their own field *or* anyone who wants to start using AI tools in their own traditional workflows, so I realized those are my audience.
To those people, I'm offering value, even if the videos are long and boring. But it's the fact that they're long and boring that's giving me an edge. Let me explain how.
Basically, from the first video, I had to choose if:

• I wanted to go straight to the point and show how things were done with the tools I was using, and show real life examples, or;
  
• I wanted to spend the necessary time to explain to anyone, even those who had no skillset in the tools I was using, how things were done.
  

I decided to go with the latter. My videos are complete tutorials, A to Z, made for people who know basically nothing about generative AI, guiding them from knowing nothing to doing exactly what I'm doing, explaining how I set up things and, most importantly, why I do it the way I do it.
Now, I needed a way to not lose the attention of people who already knew how to go from A to G, but not from G to Z, so in the first minute or so I always say something along the lines of "ok, so now I'm going to build all of my workflow from scratch, so if you're not interested in how and why it works this way, you can find the timestamps here and jump ahead to the demonstration segment".
This works, and it's why my watch curve looks like a "U". A good 25-30% of people are interested in the "how it's done", while 35-40% are interested in "what it looks like".
The only negative comment I've ever received on my format, which was something like "dude, you're too slow", was followed by a comment, a month later, by the same user, saying "I get now why you're slow, not everyone's at the same level. Please disregard my previous comment".
Strategy
Overall, I upload weekly, same day, same time, unless:

• I want to stream (unscheduled, spur of the moment short streams, around 2 hours each);
  
• something huge has come out in my niche and needs to be covered as soon as possible.
  

I don't post shorts anymore, since:

• I'm not good at making them;
  
• I don't like making them;
  
• they don't provide value to my core audience.
  

The long term goal is to find new clients for my day job, and to do consulting work on the side, given that my audience perceive me as an expert in my field.
Metrics
Now, I think that the metrics I've seen both here and in the Partnered sub are completely skewed towards niches that are not appliable to me or fellow tutorial YouTubers, or for this sub in particular, are skewed towards creators who don't have large view counts.
20-30% CTR? 50% AVD? These kind of numbers, to me, would mean that I struck gold and I created something that was flying off the shelves like cakes during the French revolution (even if that never happened). Or, most likely, that no one is watching my content expect for my most hardened userbase, *and* YT didn't push the video at all to outside audiences.
My usual metrics, which are a direct result of both my very niche content and the nature of my content (tutorials), are around 8-10% CTR and 12-18% AVD. And the videos with these metrics get pushed, hard, to outside audiences.
I think YT's algorithm kind of understands that my content is not meant to be watched from start to finish, and that my audience is very selective of what it's useful to them. So either it doesn't care about the usual metrics I see thrown around here, or those metrics are inflated.
I also think (but again, sample size=1, me) that YT kind puts each and every one of us into a "box" of sorts, in terms of how much it wants to push our content. At first, my videos had a max impressions of around 10k. Nowadays, it's more in the realm of 50-200k, and it's reflected in the amount of impressions my newest videos get when they're published. The curves all look the same until one video breaks out, and a new standard is expected out of my next videos.
Also, each video is their own thing. If a video's CTR tanks in the first few hours, I can expect it to not reach the same audience that my most successful videos reach in the same amount of time, and that's because...
YouTube wants people to see (your) videos
Well, maybe not *your* videos, and maybe not *all* your videos, but the way YT works is opposite of the way IG works, for example. While IG has no monetary incentives to pushing free content, and has to push paid content in between free content, YouTube makes money out of people seeing free content, because the paid content (ADs) is embedded into the free content (videos).
So if your video is good, YT has no issues pushing it. If your video is not good, too bad, there's another content creator in your niche who has a better video, so let's push their video instead.
By providing value to your viewers, you're providing value to YouTube and their ADs, so either you and YT win, or another content creator and YT win. In the eyes of YT, everybody wins all the time.
Increasing CTR
If you're like me, you know, in your heart of hearts, that a catchy title and a great thumbnail are as important as the content of your video. If you're like me, the thumbnail's the last thing you prepare, and we're both wrong.
Seriously, get good at creating good thumbnails. Since I've started focusing more on thumbnails, my CTR has gotten, if not better in the long run (since all videos default to kind of the same CTR the longer the video has been out for and the wider the audience is), better in the first few hours and days, which increases the audience drastically.
I know this is a boring part of the creative process, but get good at it.
Also, experiment with multiple thumbnails during the first hours when a video has been published. A thumbnail you expected to do well might not be as catchy as you thought. Try 3 or 4 different thumbnails and see what sticks.
Increasing AVD
Now in my case I can't do much about it, since the format I've chosen is kind of non-negotiable and it's what brings value at the expense of AVD, but if you're:

• seeing a sharp decrease in viewers around the 00:30 mark, work on your intros and get straight into the action;
  
• seeing a below 30% retention rate throughout the video, either there was no need for this content, or you're not covering it well enough (or you're not engaging enough);
  
• overall, give the viewers a reason to stay engaged throughout the different sections of the video.
  

Streaming
I discovered streaming way too late, and I wish I did it way earlier. It would have had me monetized at least a couple of weeks sooner.
But in order to do it well, you need:

• a good userbase who wants to extract more infos and values from things you're not covering in your uploads;
  
• the skillset necessary to basically host a mini-show.
  

The latter is the hardest part, and I only know how to do it because I'm used to giving speeches and lessons. But, like all skills, it's not something you're born with, it's something you train and get good at, so if you're into it try it and get better at it over time.
Equipment
I'm lucky enough to have a day job that covers most of the equipment needed. My camera and lenses are the same I'm using for my day job, I already had a mic, my PC is an absolute beast because of the generative AI work I do, so I think I spent like 20 bucks for a mic arm and that's it.
In anyone else's case, though, the most important things to invest in is:

• a good mic, since audio quality is more important than video quality (tons of people have terrible displays, but tons of people like to hear nice audio);
  
• 8 hours in DaVinci Resolve, and I swear you don't even need the full 8 hours, you just need to understand how to trim, cut and paste clips, how to improve your audio, and how to export files;
  
• only then, and maybe, a good enough camera, good lighting (my light is literally an ikea lamp with a 5 bucks white scrim on it, I just know how to make it look good because of my day job), minimum hardware.
  

Final considerations
Some of you may have more trouble with subs, some with watch hours (in my case, I got 2.5k subs before I reached my watch hours goal), some of you may find trouble expressing yourselves in front of the camera, or talking well, or may prefer scripts rather than talking freely while doing things, but all in all:

• do what you're good at;
  
• improve what you're lacking in;
  
• know what's useless to improve.
  

Let me know if you'd like to know more, or if I missed something.

Hi everyone,
This is quite an emergency (I mean, non vital but time scaled), I'm an AV technician apprentice and I work on-site for a congress that takes place all this week. This is maybe one of the biggest professional congresses in the world and at least the most important for my company. I have big troubles to be on time in general. I struggle with anxiety, which is a super combo. I fail every day since the beginning of the congress to arrive on time, and this is a big of a deal for 2 reasons:
1st - strictly professional behaviour, people count on me, even though I'm "just" an apprentice, I have responsibilities 2nd - besides my responsibilities, I miss important things I want to see and learn, that happen only on the morning before the congress opens
My flat is a mess and I am completely tired in the evening to clean up, even though I am motivated to do so when I leave work, the commuting kills me.
In the morning I am stuck in my bed and putting my alarm earlier doesn't help. Time is just drifting away. I am completely stressed out and getting more and more tired, I don't know what to do. I would like a temporary solution for this week, I plan to work on it for the long term with my therapists.
Thanks a lot!

In the fast-evolving landscape of digital finance, cryptocurrencies have emerged as a groundbreaking innovation, offering decentralization, security, and anonymity. As the popularity of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and others continues to soar, the need for reliable storage solutions has become paramount. This is where online crypto wallets step in, revolutionizing how users manage their digital assets. Check out: Best Crypto Wallet App
Understanding Online Crypto Wallets
An online crypto wallet, also known as a web wallet or digital wallet, is a software-based service that allows users to securely store, send, and receive cryptocurrencies through the internet. Unlike traditional wallets that hold physical cash or cards, online crypto wallets store cryptographic keys, which are essential for accessing and managing one’s digital assets on the blockchain.
The Mechanics Behind Online Crypto Wallets
Online crypto wallets come in various forms, each with its unique features and security measures. Here’s a breakdown of the different types:
· Web Wallets: These are web-based wallets accessible through a browser. Users can log in to their accounts from any device connected to the internet, making them convenient for everyday transactions. However, since web wallets are hosted on third-party servers, users must trust the service provider with the security of their funds.
· Mobile Wallets: As the name suggests, mobile wallets are designed for smartphones and tablets. They offer mobility and ease of use, allowing users to manage their cryptocurrencies on the go. Mobile wallets can be either custodial (where the private keys are stored by a third party) or non-custodial (where users have full control over their keys).
· Desktop Wallets: These wallets are installed on a user’s computer and provide a higher level of security compared to web and mobile wallets. Since the wallet software is stored locally, users have full control over their private keys. However, desktop wallets are vulnerable to malware and hacking if proper security measures are not taken. Visit here: Online Crypto Wallet
· Hardware Wallets: Considered the most secure option, hardware wallets store users’ private keys offline, on a physical device. They are immune to online threats such as hacking and phishing attacks, making them ideal for long-term storage of large cryptocurrency holdings.

Key Features and Benefits

Online crypto wallets offer several advantages over traditional storage methods:

1. Convenience: Users can access their funds anytime, anywhere, as long as they have an internet connection.
   
2. Security: Most reputable online wallets implement stringent security measures, such as encryption, two-factor authentication, and multi-signature transactions, to safeguard users’ funds.
   
3. Accessibility: Online wallets support a wide range of cryptocurrencies, allowing users to manage multiple assets from a single platform.
   
4. User-Friendly Interface: Many online wallets feature intuitive interfaces designed for both novice and experienced users, making it easy to send, receive, and monitor transactions.
   

Risks and Considerations

While online crypto wallets offer numerous benefits, they also pose certain risks that users should be aware of:
· Security Vulnerabilities: Since online wallets are connected to the internet, they are susceptible to hacking, phishing attacks, and server breaches. Users must choose reputable providers and take additional security precautions to mitigate these risks.
· Dependency on Service Providers: Users relinquish some degree of control over their funds by entrusting them to third-party service providers. In the event of a service outage or security breach, users may experience disruptions or loss of funds.
· Regulatory Compliance: Depending on the jurisdiction, online wallet providers may be subject to regulatory requirements, such as KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) regulations. Users should ensure that their chosen provider complies with relevant laws and regulations.
Conclusion
Online crypto wallets play a crucial role in facilitating the widespread adoption of cryptocurrencies by providing users with secure and convenient storage solutions. Whether you’re a casual investor or a seasoned trader, choosing the right wallet is essential for safeguarding your digital assets. By understanding the different types of wallets, their features, benefits, and risks, users can make informed decisions to protect and manage their cryptocurrency holdings effectively in the digital age.
