Assessing the Validity of Body-Mind Perspectives: A Qualitative Inquiry in Social Science
Fakhrul Abedin Tanvir

Abstract: This research paper empirically investigates the value of the mind-body perspective in the social sciences. Using qualitative survey methods through in-depth interviews, this study applies an agnostic approach to unravel the complex dynamics between these fundamental aspects of human cognition. This study presents a diverse sample of 53 participants from different socioeconomic backgrounds, including workers and individuals from the middle and disadvantaged classes. The main objective is to verify the degree of validity associated with these views. The results showed a compelling pattern in the participants accounts. While the majority of respondents emphasized the importance of voice or mind-related aspects in their daily lives, careful analysis shows that these views often have a relative degree of validity. lower, which is characterized by significant fluctuations in responses. In contrast, individuals who focused on discussing the physical body consistently found this view to be of higher value. Their views show consistency and resilience to ever-increasing change, with exceptionally rare exceptions. This research not only enriches the understanding of mind-body perspectives but also provides a unique perspective for understanding how socioeconomic factors may shape these views. These findings have important implications for researchers, policy makers, and individuals seeking a deeper understanding of the interplay between socioeconomic status and the value of public opinion. mind and body points.

EXCLUSIVE STUDY ON SATELLITE COMMUNICATION AND NAVIGATION SYSTEM AND FUTURE OF GNSS IN 21ST CENTURY
Hossain KA

Abstract: Since ancient times, people have looked at the sky to navigate. Long time ago, sailors relied on the patterns of stars in the night sky to determine their location and their desired destination. Nowadays, all we require is a simple handheld Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver to pinpoint our precise location anywhere on Earth. Nevertheless, we still depend on objects high in the sky to ascertain our whereabouts and routes. In the contemporary era, instead of stars, we utilize satellites. There are over 30 navigation satellites zooming around high above our planet which can precisely pinpoint our location. Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) comprise constellations of satellites orbiting Earth, which broadcast their positions in space and time, along with networks of ground control stations and receivers that calculate ground positions through trilateration. GNSS technology is utilized in various forms of transportation, including space stations, aviation, maritime, rail, road, and mass transit. Positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) play a pivotal role in telecommunications, land surveying, law enforcement, emergency response, precision agriculture, mining, finance, scientific research, and more. They are used for managing computer networks, air traffic, power grids, and numerous other systems. This is an analytical study aimed at depicting the satellite and communication system, encompassing its operational principles, history, categories, and applications.

Abstract: MSMEs is a business that is taken into account in the Indonesian economy. MSMEs are also often referred to as the wheels of the economy in Indonesia. The aim of this research is to find out which MSME financial reports are easy to implement based on Financial Accounting Standards for Micro, Small and Medium Entities. The method used in this study uses a qualitative method with a library approach. Literature or literature study can be interpreted as a series of activities relating to methods of collecting library data, reading and taking notes and processing research materials. Data collection in research is carried out by reviewing and/or exploring several journals, books and documents (both printed and electronic), as well as other sources of data and/or information that are considered relevant to the research or study. The research results show that the Financial Accounting Standards for Micro, Small and Medium Entities are accounting standards aimed at meeting the financial reporting needs of MSMEs. Financial reports based on Financial Accounting Standards for Micro, Small and Medium Entities only include Profit and Loss Statements, Financial Position Reports and notes to Financial Reports. MSME financial reports based on the Financial Accounting Standards for Micro, Small and Medium Entities are easy to apply and can be held accountable by management for the resources entrusted to them because the standards applied by the Financial Accounting Standards for Micro, Small and Medium Entities are simpler and adapt to the conditions in the MSMEs themselves.

Cryptocurrency: Potential, Prospects, Market, Challenges, Future and Way Forwards
Hossain KA

Abstract: Cryptocurrency represents a digital or virtual currency that relies on cryptographic security and operates through a distributed network encompassing numerous computers. The concept of the blockchain, which forms the basis of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and various other applications, was introduced by Satoshi Nakamoto in 2008 as a response to Europe economic crisis. Satoshi vision for Bitcoin was as an innovative payment method that circumvented central authorities, such as central banks. Instead, it relied on a chain of data blocks protected by cryptography, a concept later referred to as the blockchain. Initially, this technology gained prominence through its application in cryptocurrencies, with Bitcoin being the pioneering success story. In the present day, cryptocurrency, particularly Bitcoin, has witnessed a remarkable revolution, with the total cryptocurrency market capitalization now standing at $2.79 trillion, equivalent to the world eighth-largest economy. Globally, there are 730 cryptocurrency spot exchanges. However, despite its potential, promise, robustness, and numerous achievements, cryptocurrency grapples with various challenges and regulatory complexities that impede its widespread adoption in certain regions, as discussed in this research. This study serves as an exploratory examination of cryptocurrency potentials, prospects, market dynamics, challenges, and its future, with a particular focus on Bitcoin.

Blockchain Development, Architecture, Prospects, Applications, Difficulties, and Future Directions
KA Hossain

Abstract: A blockchain is a distributed database or ledger that is shared amongst a computer network nodes. In an effort to address the 2008 European financial crisis, Satoshi Nakamoto suggested using blockchain technology for Bitcoin. Numerous more applications as well as cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin are supported by this technology. Satoshi introduced Bitcoin as a new form of payment that uses a blockchain—a cryptographically secure chain of interconnected data blocks—to do away with central authorities like central banks. This method was initially applied to cryptocurrencies, with Bitcoin demonstrating its viability. These days, blockchain technology has numerous uses, some of which are covered in this paper. Ether, like with many other cryptocurrencies, is built on top of blockchain technology. The current market capitalization of cryptocurrencies is $2.79 trillion, which is equal to the eighth largest economy in the world. Every day, 30,000 postings on social media about Bitcoin are put online. This translates to 1500 posts every hour or 30 posts every minute. Blockchain technology has limitations and difficulties that prevent its complete acceptance in some domains, despite its promise, prospects, strength, and success. This article discusses these issues. The goal of this thorough study is to analyze how blockchain technology is used in different application contexts and to assess its prospects, difficulties, features, and future directions.
