  Flash Bitcoin is a time-limited version of Bitcoin that mimics real BTC in both appearance and utility — until it disappears after a fixed duration. Perfect for learning blockchain techniques, online purchases, gabling websites, used in Bitcoin ATMs or short-term use, Flash BTC remains securely stored in any crypto wallet for 30 days to 360 days before being automatically invalidated by the blockchain network.
  
  Unlike traditional BTC, Flash Bitcoin is non-permanent — yet fully transferable, swappable and tradable with all crypto wallet apps. You can send it up to 45 times and exchange it for other cryptocurrencies. However, any converted crypto will also vanish after the same 30 to 360-days period.
  
  Order from $2,500 to $100 million in Flash BTC, with just a 10% upfront payment. All coins are generated using advanced Flash BTC software, ensuring a secure and controlled flashing process.
  
  Whether you’re a crypto enthusiast, developer, or blockchain educator, gambler, Flash Bitcoin offers a powerful, flexible solution. Buy Flash Bitcoin now and experience the best flashing service online — only at globalzezperts.
  
  ⚖️ Minimum Order Policy
  Please note: We do not process orders below $2,500 worth of Flash BTC. The minimum purchase requirement is strictly enforced. Do not contact us for lower amounts, as these requests will not be considered.

  Obviously we don’t know the full story from social media - maybe teams truly had 50% get injured last minute and get special approval to repeat. But it feels like yet another rule in Irish dancing that is inconsistently or not enforced.

  For thw most part it was well organized byt can we not put a another age group in between the groups. The U15 on Stage E had to wait 5 hours to do their second round. They should do one age group in the morning and next age group in the afternoon, these dancers are very use to changing shoes and dancing right after. Also the schedule was all over the place should always be youngest to oldest or vice versa

  With the expense of NANS and there being 5,000 dancers, why are the stages so small and horrible wood? And the u14/u15 girls who are mostly full grown in height dancing 3 at a time is ridiculous. This is our 9th NANS and the stages are terrible for being a qualifier. Feels like floors would be number one priority for safety and for being the reason families spend thousands to travel and dance there.

• Posting recalls -- SO much better, 09:48:07 07/09/25 Wed
  Whether it’s good news or not, letting dancers leave and get recalls privately is such a vast improvement to waiting hours in the room. It’s a much classier and more respectful way to handle it; these kids are already stressed to the max. Nothing worse than a no-recall after waiting three or four hours in a room and having to listen to other girls shrieking and cheering for themselves (our teacher doesn’t allow that but many do.) I am very pleased with this change!

• Adults -- Fuming, 20:17:26 07/08/25 Tue
  I am aware that adult Irish Dancers have become a norm in ID- fine. However, I cannot defend the ladies and gents who cannot even physically LIFT an inch off of the ground. If the adults are going to want to dance solo at a national competition, which is considered prestigious in the Irish dancing world, they truly need to be treated like every single other dancer who dedicates so much of their time to becoming an athlete, navigating through the lessons of having to work hard, win some, lose some, make sacrifices, etc. There needs to be a standard and qualifications set in place. Some of the dancing today could not possibly be defended even by people who truly support adult Irish dancers. Adult Irish dancers are going to always have their reason as to why they dance, just like us all. But it is unfair that they are getting an opportunity that has to be earned and worked for by younger dancers for years, just handed to them. Let them dance, but in their own organization. Similar to how people retire from college sports and join IM teams to meet up a few times a week and play a friendly game.

• Trad set awards excruciating but so adorable -- kids were so happy, 19:34:57 07/07/25 Mon
  My favorites were the u15, 17&O, u7, u8, u11, u12, kids were so so cute! Trad set takes up a lot of space but I enjoy seeing kids who dance more because they love it and not because they are chasing a trophy. Super cute reactions.

• Training Programs? -- Confused, 14:56:01 06/23/25 Mon
  Hello!
  
  Can anyone share their experience with an Irish Dance training program? Specifically , anything that was especially helpful or easy to follow for a younger U10 dancer?
  
  It is hard to know the differences between Move with Meg, Feis Fit, Target Training etc.
  
  Thank you!

• ECR MHA Sweep -- ?, 11:02:31 06/23/25 Mon
  Not from the region, but I was checking the results from Golden Horseshoe Feis last weekend and WOW... MHA won every champ competition, with several second place finishes too. What's in the water over there? Their dancers are clearly strong, but sweeping every competition? That's got to be tough for other schools in the region.

  My dd is in prelims and is winning pretty consistently in the top 3, wanting to get that first first place. She said she has a goal of wq by 2026 or 2027.

  We did not attend so could not try them but did anyones child try them and like/dislike them? Mostly curious about the support as the split sole design seems like it would have far less support than a conventional shoe but the marketing claims the opposite. I just want to make sure my daughters feet stay safe especially as she is in her teens now and has had some injuries I want her to be able to dance for life if she chooses to. The only reviews so far are tiktok sponsorship ones so obviously an unbiased review from someone who has tried them on would be worth its weight in gold. thank you.

• Why Do We Continue... (read inside) -- D.M., 02:18:25 06/08/25 Sun
  We know there’s cheating in Irish dance. We’ve seen it. We’ve heard the stories. And yet… we continue.
  
  We continue because Irish dance is what our dancers love.
  Because the rhythm, the music, the movement — they light something inside them.
  
  Because standing on the big stage, feeling the adrenaline, hoping for a medal — those moments matter to them.
  
  Because they want the chance to win. Because they like winning.
  
  Because when they hear their name called and step onto that podium, it feels like all their hard work meant something.
  
  Yes, they sometimes complain when the results aren’t fair. When they danced better than the person placed ahead.
  
  And yes, it’s time to help them understand:
  Placing isn’t the most important thing.
  
  What matters more is how you danced. How far you’ve come.
  How you held your composure under pressure. How your technique, confidence, and artistry have grown.
  
  And let’s not pretend: people see. They notice who is improving, who is exceptional, regardless of scores.
  
  Competing in a system where cheating exists is not ideal.
  But it still teaches so much — about perseverance, disappointment, resilience, and character.
  
  About how to keep going when things aren't fair. About standing tall in your truth while others take shortcuts.
  
  We CONDEMN cheating. Those who cheat should be ashamed.
  
  To trade integrity for a fleeting moment of false glory — that’s not victory, that’s loss.
  
  So, why do we continue?
  
  Because our dancers have something real. Something earned.
  And no score, no politics, no corrupted system can take that away.
  
  We admire those who stand up and speak out — the dancers, parents, and teachers who refused to stay silent.
  
  We admire the judges who choose honesty over influence, who refuse to participate in corruption.
  
  And we hold on to hope that those in power — those who can make change — will ACT.
  
  That they will restore Irish dancing as it should be: a true art and sport for the public, not a tool for personal gain.
  
  To those with the power to change things: please, do something great.
  
  Use your voice, your influence, your authority — and stop this foolishness.
  
  Bring back fairness. Bring back pride. Bring back the spirit of Irish dance that deserves to shine.
  
  To those who feel bitter because of the cheating — take care of yourself. Don't let it take control of you. Don’t let it turn you into someone you don’t want to be. Protect your love for the dance. Let it fuel your purpose, not your pain.

• Gaylord Run of House -- Did you know?, 14:39:24 06/01/25 Sun
  With group blocks, "Run of House" means we get whatever is available when we arrive, not necessarily the room type we reserved. So if you booked a room with two queens and they only have kings available when you show up, that's what you get. I only just caught this. Yes, it could also work in your favor but given the last time I experienced something like this, not looking forward to the game of roulette. My son and his team ended up with four people in a room with one bed.

• Calling all high school Class of 2026 dancers!!! -- Slowey Photography, 13:35:05 05/22/25 Thu
  Last year around this time, I created the Slowey Photography Senior Athlete Team.
  
  The goal? Create a space to give Irish dancers in their senior year a celebration; similar to what athletes who participate in school associated sports receive, such as senior nights, media days, and spirit weeks.
  
  As a retired competitor who focused solely on their dance career throughout high school, I recognize first hand the lack of celebration and recognition of high school seniors in this sport. Over the past year, 7 dancers from across the nation celebrated their senior year with me; through free shoots, athlete interviews, group texts, and more.
  
  The deadline to join next year's team is June 1.
  
  Get to know the Class of 2025 team as we wrap up the year @SloweyPhotography on social media, or reach out for info to join next year's team at SloweyPhotography [at] gmail [dot] com

• Transferring schools -- Dance mom, 13:13:07 05/20/25 Tue
  I'm considering moving my daughter to a new school, her current school just doesn't seem to care about the Champ dancers and focuses on the new dancers.
  
  I know there is a 6 month ban - is it super strict? I realized that her 6 months would be book ended by a feis in a few weeks and oireachtas at the end. She could skip the feis and compete at the O, or compete in the feis (which is already paid for) and miss the O. Is there any chance they'd give her a few day grace period?

• Looking to sell Gaylord room for NANs… -- ., 08:19:38 04/27/25 Sun
  Anyone have experience selling/transfering their hotel room for NANs? My daughter is probably out due to injury so we are considering getting rid of our room and canceling the trip altogether. We booked the Gaylord so I’m hopeful someone will take it but we’re relatively new to this so I don’t know how it works with the deposit. Also we are Canadian so that might make things more complicated…

  So this year i didn’t dance due to an injury but i came with a friend who’s dancing in senior ladies and i Decided to peak into the senior men’s comp while she was waiting. Did anyone else think the senior men’s recall was all over the place ? Watching the competition many had the same recalls as i was thinking then recalls are posted and 4 of the men didn’t recall but dancers who walked their third steps because they were winded did?! Genuinely confused on watch the judges were watching and its no wonder this organization is falling apart.

• Have come across a lot of the world judges on previous panels, both good and bad. However, have never come across the Canadians or Australian. -- Question, 16:54:25 04/03/25 Thu
  Are these judges more likely to give preference to dancers from their own respective countries? I have met previous Australian judges before who gave Australian dancers significantly higher than others in the panel, and consistently gave Australian dancers the 100 over their competitors, regardless of dancing on the day. Any insight into these judges? Should we expect the same?

      • seen lots of boosting from CAN judges but never experienced it myself, they were often my worst marks, scored better by the English and Irish. Wasn't in the "in crowd," but you can very easily figure out who is. ECR especially is very cliquey, smaller region, everyone knows everyone. Havent had a look at worlds, hoping not as bad now but who knows (NT) -- ECR, 16:54:07 04/17/25 Thu
  • On the other side…What happens is that the Aus judges might recognize the dancer so they actually give them the time of day and judge them accordingly. Australia fights a battle of not being on the overseas Feis scene so a lot of the very talented Aus dancers never really get the time and attention they should based on ‘not being known’ (NT) -- Fact-Happens year after year, 17:41:20 04/04/25 Fri
    • This is a really good point. Really good unknown dancers have a hard time getting noticed. We were advised to get our daughter social media accounts so she would be “known.” As I’ve seen no research showing social media is good for teens, that was a hard no. (NT) -- Dm, 07:08:17 04/07/25 Mon

• Virtual training or in person experiences for core? (Inside) -- .., 07:44:00 03/27/25 Thu
  Curious about anyone’s experience with in person (greater NYC area) or online core training for Irish dance. My daughter is a novice dancer, but with core weakness causing poor posture and pronation (resolved medical thing).
  
  She loves dancing, and we’ve exhausted insurance eligible PT. So now we are trying to decide between continuing PT, some sort of personal training, or Irish dance training focused on core/ turnout. Basically we want to be sure she is improving, but sort of move away from the “medical” aspect to something fun! Our school does not do private lessons for beginner/ novice dancers. She is elementary age.
  
  Would love anyone’s perspective or experiences, I know this is very niche! Experiences with some of the online trainings would be great too. Thank you!!

• Why have globes plastered all over dresses? -- Sylvie, 15:24:27 03/24/25 Mon
  I mean such beautiful dresses and dancers but the constant need to identify a previous globe. Let the dancing do the talking. These dancers don't need to have a globe on each shoulder on their back their chest and the headpiece. Just dance for heavens sake. Ruins the look of the dress also like the front of a geography book with a 3k price tag.
