1061  Economy / Economics / Re: Where the correction ? on: March 27, 2021, 02:38:23 PM
I think from now on we will not huge corrections in Bitcoin as institutional money started to come in. This means Bitcoin's value will stabilize around some sort of fair value which I believe will be around 30000 dollars in near future. But of cource Bitcoin's bears will pull it further down to levels around even 15000-20000 for sure. So invest low, play low is my strategy now.

it is only your provisional prediction because you haven't felt it.  Every price increase experienced by Bitcoin and other Crypto is always experiencing a correction.  Especially at this time what we are experiencing is an increase in prices at the highest level.  At some point in the future there will be a decline due to the latest BTC levels.  Price correction is needed in order to maintain the authenticity of the supply and demand prices in the market.

The worse part if that they can force people to use only their centralized digital currencies, forbidding bitcoin and other decentralized crypto currencies. What I most fear is a bitcoin confiscation ordered by authoritarian governments towards btcs held in centralized exchanges. If something like this happened, I believe exchanges would deliver all the coins to governments without chances of reverting the decision.

If that happens then surely Bitcoin and other cryptos that are currently very high in price could return to like in 2018. But seeing this, it is not that easy for governments around the world to jointly ban and confiscate their people's Bitcoin and force to use a centralized one.  Although India has taken that policy in advance.  The US and many other countries are already open to developing technology.  They also need a competitor that is as equal as Bitcoin, does it already exist?

As far as I can see from the posts that there seems to be a problem that keeps coming and at least it's about verification issues, I'm just worried if there are still the same problems out there but still not resolved?
I just hope Betnomi can solve the problem quickly somehow, due to my experience of using other sites when it gets into trouble at least when I have issues about anything like a frozen account etc, but my problem was resolved quickly and it was great.
Why is it became your concern? Betnomi might be busy with their work, and from what i read they are just waiting for 24 hours, they should wait more patiently, give them like 72 hours to reply their problem.
Or they can contact betnomi live support to ask about their problem for faster response.

Yes, I'm quite patient waiting for my account to be verified by Betnomi.  I have submitted this verification for more than 1 week and I think it is normal if I follow up on this thread it is always related to the verification problem I experienced.  But it's true that it's not his business nor is this problem still constrained, I understand if Betnomi's management is still busy or there are other reasons as long as I get a response to this verification process.  Hopefully my account verification will be completed soon because I want to join again at Betnomi's free event.

It would slowly recover. But for affected businesses like airline and travel companies, amusement and tourist attractions, etc., it would take them a very long while to recover because of prolonged shutdown in their businesses, especially those employees who were being included in massive layoffs. I really felt for them, but that’s how it is. Life must go on, and they need to find alternatives that would make them a living.

Until now, the cases of layoffs are very high, I feel that the world is still not recovering and it is still very hard to face the crisis due to the pandemic.  It is not only the health burden that is currently depressed, but especially the economy.  The demos are everywhere because they think these are just engineered conditions.
1066  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin Is Protecting Human Rights Around the World on: March 26, 2021, 11:09:16 AM
Money has no right or wrong, they are just a tools for people to use.

I think bitcoin is not related to human rights. Like the statement above, bitcoin is like money, a tool for a human to buy, hold, or use as a safe haven. Maybe bitcoin gives anonymity to people who do not want other people to know how much money they had, and even the government does not know about that. But that does not mean that bitcoin protects human rights because whether you like it or not, we still live in a country with a government that will control all of its people. When people use bitcoin, they will have something that the government and the government do not control will not know about their money.

No inflation doesn't mean that Bitcoin protects human rights.  Because as you said, money is only a medium of exchange.  The concept of human rights here is not really protected by Bitcoin. If Bitcoin really protects human rights then it won't work that way right now.  Don't because of several things that intersect, it seems like it is a big influence.  Even though that is not the concept.
1067  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2020/2021 on: March 25, 2021, 01:46:30 PM
It was a really bad decision to sell Eriksen I think. Maybe his performance in the last season was not good but the older statistics of him was quite good. He was really helpful for the team. Now he is at Inter but he hasn't even scored a goal or made an assist in the Serie A so far in this season.

I can not say that transfer is bad for Tottenham as same as what happened in Liverpool with Coutinho. It can be best for those players if they don't move. After transfers, if they come back, they won't get success most of times, Kaka and AC Milan is very good example.

Some bad transfers for great players are: Torres from Liverpool to Chelsea, Shevchenko from AC Milan to Chelsea, Griezman from Atletico to Barcelona.

The transfer they made did not look profitable enough for the team because Eriksen, who was predicted to bring the team to the title, still did not show any results.  Each club weighs very well the impact that will be obtained. Christian is very smart, he has quality, he is part of the project, and I'm happy he scored the goal. "

  "I really want him to execute him, because we know he has the quality of set pieces. However, I am still quite sure that in the future Eriksen will still have a good future in the world of football.

Hi @Betnomi I've been waiting for a few days but it looks like you still left me without verification.  Please help me to verify my account, I really want to join predictors and my account is only one, nothing else.  I'm waiting for your verification, thank you Betnomi 😊

Try again later,  looks like those who follow the predictor are still less than 40 so all participants definitely get another freebet from round 15.
My results are even worse 0/3 on football matches.

You guys are very lucky guys, my account is still not verified.  If I could participate maybe now I could get a freebet from Betnomi, even though I was really looking forward to the opportunity of this interesting event.
1069  Economy / Economics / Re: Food Prices Are Soaring Faster Than Inflation and Incomes on: March 24, 2021, 03:17:01 PM
We are reaching a critical point, inflation in luxury items or in stuff people do not normally use or have access is not going to affect them however inflation when it comes to food is going to have very adverse effects all around the world.

This is simply a matter of ROI, most people do not want things like a revolution happening on their country because deep down they know all the bad effects it will have plus the fact they may risk their lives, but if they do not have food for themselves or their families slowly the ROI for a revolution begins to switch towards revolution, and I would not be surprised if in the next years we see some governments going down because of the high food prices.
If the minimum wages are increased in parallel with the inflation then we should be able to curtail the problem of increased in the prices of basic necessities. We don't need a revolution to have a change, we just have to choose the right and competent person to get into the position of power, someone that really do care about the people more than their own interest. Teach your children not to be a sycophant fanatics of politicians, teach them to ask the right questions, teach them common sense and critical thinking, teach them compassion and charity. This simple things that our parents didn't do can help the future generations become better than the past generations.

Telling the threats we will receive in the future, the hardships of staples, inflation, and extreme weather will never end but it is like walking in a dead end.  If you say that what is being improved is the current leadership order, it will take a very long time to give birth to a generation that really cares about the condition of society.  The economic crisis is very clear in front of the eye, the steps to save themselves are to secure the assets owned by preparing your best portfolio.
1070  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling firms helping Government and people during quarantine, literally. on: March 24, 2021, 02:23:24 PM
The casinos have certain restrictions under which they need to donate towards charity programme of the Government.As mentioned above for obtaining license there are strict code of conduct and certain implications which casinos have to follow.Moreover they got tax rebates if they donate for the noble cause as it is tax deductible in most countries.They are just playing their duties and we also need to appreciate them for helping and providing funds in needy hours to help people in pandemic.

Guidelines for casino operators across UK
Quote
Must pay 15% tax on all profits from UK services.

Need to hold a license from the Gambling Commission and comply with various codes of practice.

 Must comply with advertising standards and codes of practice including the CAP Code and the Gambling Industry Code for Socially Responsible Advertising (Industry Code) administered by the Advertising Standards Authority (the ASA). There is also the Licence conditions and codes of practice for all licensees (LCCP).

So it's just a part of organisations to donate towards charity driven programmes as law abides them do so of the country in which they are providing services.


This is quite interesting because they are actually doing what they have to do for the sake of the license and the various rules that have to be obeyed.  It is very different in countries that prohibit access to gambling, there are no rules that support or allow it so that often naughty people still gamble from overseas online gambling sites and gambling companies do not pay any taxes from their income.  The loss is two times, one community is disadvantaged because they cannot play gambling freely. The two countries do not get anything from gambling companies which have very much money.
1071  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sponsor Money from Casino, Is bad or Good? on: March 24, 2021, 01:43:58 PM
It's a marketing strategy, streamers are one of the best ways to promote games, casinos, etc. Since they have a lot of supporters and they can be a good influence on their viewers. However, I think they should be responsible for accepting such offers and never promoting bogus websites or platforms.
Due to high competition of casino businesses today getting or hiring for a streamers was the best marketing strategy that they can do to attract gamers and gamblers. Aside from the good reviews that they have in their online sites, a plus or additional attraction to gamblers the live streaming of the streamers. Well of course those streamers have already a supporter/s that believes in them, in short they can bring their viewers and supporters to also try the casino they are promoting.

I have no problem if the casino pays a certain amount of money to YouTubers or streamers as a form of their promotion.  But sometimes the fact is, there are a lot of influencers who over-promote their promotions.  And novice gamblers are lured and caught up with huge losses.  For example, my friend in the past, he was trapped in a marketing strategy of this kind and thought his money could easily be doubled, but he didn't have any leftover money.  It is very sad but it becomes a personal risk because playing gambling is an option that is not compelled by anyone.
1072  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2020/2021 on: March 24, 2021, 01:01:38 PM
Interesting to notice that in the top five scorers there is no one from Manchester City and this means that the citizens spread their scoring in every players categories. Manchester City also scored the most in Premier League (64 goals) and therefore all these guys are goal machines
Gundogan 12 goals, Sterling 9, Mahrez 9, Jesus 7, Foden 6, De Bruyne 5 and Aguero 1  Grin
Better to have many scorers in the team than mainly 1 guy. That's why City is the best right now while other teams depends a lot on the performance of their main striker.
Guardiola's hand is definitely visible here because this one of his major pros. He makes sure that the whole team is committed and that every player is highly regarded. Also, with his modern style, he has proposed an idea of a coach capable of transforming the imagination of the football world.
Great manager, really, nothing to add.

The first time I saw the top scorer also thought the same thing.  There are no names from the top 2 teams. I feel like this is a real performance from the coaches that make all the players able to contribute in scoring goals.  This is one great strategy and not necessarily applicable in all teams because this is a high-level strategy that must have extraordinary cohesiveness and an emphasis on selfishness in each player.  It takes extraordinary teamwork so that it gives all players the same opportunity.  It is much more interesting to have the Premier League Cup with all the players than to bring the Golden Boots home just for yourself and the team feeling disappointed.
1073  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Time Magazine: Will start to accept crypto for subscription on: March 24, 2021, 12:23:17 PM
A job offer from Time posted yesterday on LinkedIn, searching for a CFO for NYC, states amongst the required qualifications the following:
Quote
Comfort with Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.
That shows a line of action, and also another step towards considering bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as something that is causing an impact on some job profile requirements, and not just those in the technological sphere.

See: https://www.coindesk.com/time-magazine-seeks-new-cfo-lists-comfort-with-bitcoin-as-qualification


In my opinion, seeing the current development of the world that is quite good at responding to crypto, it is not a big surprise that Time has such requirements for its CFO candidates.  The CFO they hope will be a CEO who has flexible and visionary knowledge.  Because when it comes to crypto, what we are fighting against are centralized bankers and workers.  But people who accept crypto have a slightly different view of the economy.  I was once interviewed when applying for a job as a financial staff in one of the big companies in my country.  I was considered to have added value because I understood crypto and it was very attractive to corporate users at the time and I passed for the next stage.  For me this is nothing new, but I still appreciate Time openly choosing candidates with such requirements.
1074  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is for Holders! on: March 23, 2021, 03:49:12 PM
Of course, bitcoin is for HOLDERS and we can proved that in bearish situation because if you really are a holder, you would not panic and dump. Those who hold for long term has already enjoyed their profit now, imagine that bitcoin dump below $10k during the bearish period and now it has reach $60k as its ATH.

What we are seeing now might not last because volatility happens and that is normal for the crypto market and bitcoin, so if we enjoy seeing $60k and $50k, we should prepare ourselves to witness a bearish period which could happen anytime.

The context you are talking about will be fine if you bought BTC for a long time, but if you buy it now are you still ready if from 60k USD the price falls to 20K USD again?  Do you really still have BTC in your wallet.  Does the panic really not attack you.  I don't agree that BTC is just to hold.  Because volatile assets like this will be more profit to trade.  Because if you invest only you receive a single profit, but if you trade, the profit becomes compound.
1075  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2020/2021 on: March 23, 2021, 02:58:49 PM
I personally believe with Harry Kane, Kane has a stronger and more creative style of play in the field and that is very different from Salah and therefore in my view Kane deserves the golden boots. Just look at how Kane is more active and better on the field, because not only does he score a lot of goals but Kane is also diligent in making assist goals.

I personally prefer Kane's playstyle to Mohammad Salah's play style. I would be very happy if Kane is able to win the Golden Boot. But many matches of the season are yet to be held. It would be foolish to make a decision now. Watch their 5 more match performances, then decide. But I am hopeful Kane will be far ahead than Salah.

I also prefer Kane's style of play because I think it's better than Salah.  But if you talk about the prediction of who will get The Golden Boots, then Salah has a bigger chance because he sees his track record so far.  However, his arrogant style is wrong to annoy me sometimes.  In the previous season he had publicly ridiculed Kane in the Premier League.  But it is only natural if something happens that catches the attention of the audience.

I like the concept of this game. Its the same like video poker game but there is no hold card option because the winning or losing is decided after we click it. I dont find any paytable for this game but as I understand it, I need to get 2 type of matching candies for 2x win but how many unique type of candies are there in this game? I think it is like combination of video poker and slot
1077  Economy / Speculation / Re: The reasons why Bitcoin price drops recently on: March 23, 2021, 01:20:26 PM
Anyone is free to say their views on Bitcoin, but the reason Bitcoin has decreased in recent days is because of the price correction.  If the reason is due to Powell's comments or US policy, it may be influential but insignificant even if it is presented maybe only 1%.  And assets that are highly volatile, if it goes up and down is a natural thing.  It could be that tomorrow the price will be above 60k USD again.  Who knows, right?
1078  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin millionaire lists reasons most will never be rich on: March 23, 2021, 12:15:31 PM
Mindset my ass, try to say that mindset to someone who doesn't know where to find their food for the day, do you think it will apply? Do not confuse pessimism with realism.

Maybe I've never been in such a position so that the mindset that I told seems like you can't accept it.  However, living with positive vibes will be much better than starting a life with prejudice.  Will thinking like that change the negative things that have happened?  Will continuing to think negatively make a starving person full?  I do not think so.  With the positive vibe that has been built inside, I think life will be much more productive.
Yes, you can have a positive vibe but still have to struggle with all the hardships that you and your family require such as food, water, clothes and a home. You can be too productive but still won't be able to satisfy your hunger. You don't know the hardship that everyone going through and have gone through just as you've said, "You have never been in such a position". So please, don't say that just having positive mindset and positive vibes are enough to certain people as most of them requires help to able to climb up to where they need to be.

I live with challenges and not what you think.  I once had to starve myself just because my family didn't have money to buy food.  I once cried because I could never feel the game other people have.  I once lived in a house that was even flooded and we lived above flood waters that never stopped.  My life is full of challenges, and I'm always positive for my life.  Have you ever been really hungry like you said?  I doubt you have ever experienced that.
1079  Economy / Economics / Re: Loans are cheap good time to use loans for Investment in btc on: March 22, 2021, 03:13:26 PM
Loans are cheap if the creditor doesn't have a specific time frame as to when you are going to pay the loan which is close to impossible but likely and the loan doesn't incur any interest. Do not believe that loans can help you make money especially if you are just starting to invest in bitcoin because there is a high chance that losses will be happening and the only way to profit is a long term hodl which is not a good thing if that bitcoin was bought with a loan.

Well, taking loans from financial institutions will just make it worse because of the interest amount to be paid as well as they set a fixed time within which one has to return the funds, so technically it's a burden on brain which will make trading less effective, while borring from friends and family and promising them that any profit you might make, you will give them a percentage of it, then that will be les burden and I think that's the best way and not taking loans from entities that will haunt you.

For people who are psychologically unstable, it will be a very severe burden to invest using debt. This volatile market condition is enough to make the psychology of investors and traders up and down quickly. Moreover, it is made worse by investing with borrowed money. So the psychological burden is double. But it's not a bad thing either if you can cover it, investing in debt is a cool and brave idea.
1080  Economy / Economics / Re: Economy after COVID-19 on: March 22, 2021, 02:30:03 PM
Now the general population is slow to act against these new strains and they are behaving as if nothing has been changed.

People today are very ignorant of their health and what I see the cause is a psychological condition that is fed up with the continuous spread of the virus but the economic condition is deteriorating with all forms of social restrictions.  People now think more about their guts than they are afraid of an invisible virus.  I also sometimes do the same thing.  With the news that the virus is mutating and growing, it is even stronger than before.  As if there was no end, even the inflation was looming before the eyes.  And what needs to be prepared is asset insurance assets to mitigate the risks that will be faced in the future.
