1081  Economy / Economics / Re: Looks like markets are crashing ! this is it ...it's the big one ! on: May 29, 2022, 08:16:26 PM
For investors who have money at hand, it is time to buy - is what I also suggest to every other newbie if they have money at hand because when the market flips back they will be too late in accumulating enough assets to be able to sell back.

Dont look at even lower price to buy cheap, this is cheap enough, but dont spend all your liquid cash right away either.

I expect both sides possibility at this juncture. The price are sliding downwards for bitcoin and many fiat markets. It is also not a bad decision to wait it out before buying or selling. Patience can often help in the market.
This is basically the place where you can start DCA and that would help you out a lot. I mean I know that you could always have a stop loss if you are worried about what's going to happen, but if you start to buy from here, and keep on buying at intervals, then you are going to be doing fine.

This is of course just a thought, I agree with you and I believe that bitcoin should be going up anytime now, anyone who isn't sure about what's going on, could just wait and see the price going up and will be too late. I know that it isn't a healthy situation to be in right now, but that isn't a problem and we should be quite proud to be here when it's so low, and will be proudly saying we bought it at 30k, when the price hits 100k+ in the future.
1082  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it a good time to start accepting BTC? on: May 29, 2022, 07:01:44 PM
Bitcoin is money and it depends on what you are selling in your store and the platform at which you accept the Bitcoin, I know a shop that accepts Bitcoin but the only challenge used to be the price fluctuations since the shop sells groceries and receives a small amount in Bitcoin on some goods so sending the Bitcoin to exchange before converting to cash used to cost her extra cost, ever since the payment now go straight to an exchange address the conversion process is less costly and business is moving fine for her. So ultimately it depends on you what you want and how you want to go about it on a general note everyone will say Bitcoin payment is the best for a retail shop.
Digital ones will be something a lot better because it will make you a lot more money. I personally believe that bitcoin should be used in digital places, websites, ebooks, stuff like that which you could basically give it to people right away when they pay you in bitcoin. I did that back in the day with a software for example, a trading bot, you would get a license of it as soon as you paid in bitcoin and it was a great deal.

Unfortunately I stopped because I am not a good salesperson and my SEO is not that great so it was just an expense for me and there was no income for me at all, that is why I stopped doing it all together.
1083  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New coins bring a lot of big profits on: May 29, 2022, 06:32:33 PM
It is true. But big profits are accompanied by great risks, so careful consideration is needed to make a decision to invest in new coins. At least we master technical and fundamental analysis that is qualified, believe in projects, in-depth research and be patient in facing any market conditions in holding it until our target is achieved. I say new coins are not suitable for weak hands.
If you master the TA and FA then you are going to not be interested in the brand new projects. I mean you could still avoid them if you are not interested in that, but I personally believe that brand new projects are just a whole another aspect of the game.

What I mean by that is, you would be able to get something in return, and it would be a bit of a big deal at only that time and not in general. This is of course just a short term thing, you could get that big amount or miss out, then after a while nobody should get in. If you are going to invest into a brand new thing, just invest at release or pre-sale and sell within a week, that's my suggestion.
1084  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: May 28, 2022, 07:26:54 PM
Maybe I will say yes RB Leipzig is good because they are still among the four best teams in the Bundesliga, looking at their performance outside their league it is disappointing, the team has been on and off in terms of form in all competitions last season. Yes, they ended in the fourth position last season if they don't get more good players for the new season, I doubt if they can make it to the champion league again because other teams in the league will be pushing to step up to the fourth position.
Let me put it this way. RB Leipzig was created in 2009, we are in 2022, by 2020 they made it to champions league semi-finals. This is the team that started in 5th league, moved to Bundesliga in a record speed that nobody even came close before, got to runners up in under 10 years, and managed to go to semi finals of UCL within a few years of that. This is all based on Red Bull spending insane amount of money on the club obviously.

So, if you doubt Leipzig, do not doubt it because they are capable of buying players that huge clubs could, like they could literally pay for Mbappe if they wanted to, would be silly to do so, but they could. So, if they get a great manager, a great staff around players, and then spend the money on great young stars, they could literally dominate the league, they do not need wins for money, they already have money, hence why they could be awesome.
1085  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: May 28, 2022, 06:44:54 PM
for next season I don't think Newcastle will be easy to get into the top four. Considering, although Newcastle have good finances at the moment but they will still find it difficult to sign players who have star quality. Because the star players want to play in the Champions League stage and Newcastle still need time to reach that competition. But indeed, at least over time of course Newcastle will be able to compete in the title race and yes, the Premier League is the most attractive league in its competition and this Premier League seems to be the center for world football.
I agree that money is a very important thing in football, but unless your team already has great players, then superstars won't come to your team just because you offered them a lot of money, you may get that but it is going to be tough. They have a lot of money, what will happen is that they will offer players who do not worth that much, more than what they worth, and get the level of the team higher at first.

Only after that they will be able to get good results, this will be next season, they will be getting top 10 for sure, then they will be able to get some good players, like great level, and that will make them even better, like top 5 for sure level season after that. Only after that, they will get superstars, and that will make them compete for a title. So, I see at least 3 more seasons.
1086  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: avoid scam telegram groups , find useful tools and channels on: May 28, 2022, 03:00:53 PM
although there are telegram groups that provide good information for signaling a coin, it's best to study it yourself. no matter how good the offer is, sometimes people will sue them when they get a loss from the signal. to be honest, there are lots of telegram groups like this one, only, we don't know if it's a scam group or not, and even when it's free, most of them just provide information on pure speculation without data. personally, I really avoid such groups.
Those free ones are basically just what the owner is thinking and nothing more. If you think that you could make something out of that, then I have a very bad news to you regarding those. I know that you agree with me, but there are some people who think that they are really good.

Reality is that we are talking about a place where some guy sees something and says "hmm I think this will go up" and then writes to the group as a "signal" after he bought some of it and hopes that people would buy after him and the price would go up because of it. You will see that most of those places offer small cap stuff because they are looking for the group to pump it as well.
1087  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Exchanges that offer loan options on: May 28, 2022, 02:28:54 PM
Good advice and can provide loan solutions without having to borrow on the exchange.
Because loans in this forum can be negotiated with the borrower. There are many people who can provide loans, choose according to the criteria and how much you want to borrow. Just make a thread that requires a loan. guarantee can be negotiated directly.
But as a borrower, you must also be ready with collateral that will be deferred and be able to pay on time according to the agreement.

can directly visit the Lending board: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=65.0
I would guess that you could get a loan from someone here by calculating the risks, but they are giving a very small amount and that is the difference. I have never seen giving 60k loans on 30 year fixed rate, like a house mortgage would be getting you. This is the thing that bothers me the most, if you are looking for a 100 bucks loan then yeah this place would be better but why would I want to do something like that?

There is no reason why I should be getting a loan for that amount, no investment would make sense in that situation and that is why I am not really looking for something like that. Hopefully it will be getting better in the long run but it is too little for me for now.
1088  Economy / Economics / Re: Ukraine has launched a global initiative United24 to raise funds on: May 27, 2022, 07:18:14 PM
...My nation could literally get out of debt trouble if we had 40 billion dollars, we are a poor nation and 40 billion dollars is enough to make us not a poor nation anymore. This is why Ukraine getting this amount is a big deal, they would be able to both defend, and also rebuild with that kind of money and would be so much help for them.
The war is not over, so it is impossible to predict now what amount will be required to restore the economy of Ukraine. But it is already clear that this will require more than a trillion dollars, which is comparable to the total capitalization of the entire cryptocurrency market. Just such a figure was announced recently by Oleg Ustenko, the presidential adviser on economic issues.
It is clear that the amount will never be known because there are things that will never recover because they were historical, there were people who are involved in the economy that died, and there will be things that will be done with better technology instead as well.

You have to remember that Ukraine was one of the most important nations in the USSR, probably biggest after Russia, which means that they had so much money for building new stuff in order to make people see that communism works, even if it was breaking their treasury. This means that we are talking about a nation that will never get some stuff back, and that is the sad part.
1089  Economy / Speculation / Re: Holding my horses for now on: May 27, 2022, 02:18:44 PM
Is buying bitcoin right now the same with buying later? I stopped buying because it looks like Bitcoin dips isn't over, imagine buying at 19k per Bitcoin, I think the whole idea of investment is when you are buying not running after the best coins in the market, buying them cheap is better or I don't get it?.
As a fellow pleb, I view it as completely understandable, and it will be better for your sanity. BUT, place bids near over, and under the 200-week SMA line. Bitcoin has touched it always during a bear market, but has never stayed under it for a long amount of time. THEN HODL. Cool
This is definitely a good advice, even a great one. I personally believe that it should be noted that it rarely goes down under but at the same time it should be noted that it could rearrange depending on how big of a crash happens. Like when it goes from 35k to 30k then it could tell you the reality and you could see what it should be doing, but when it goes from 60k to 40k, it doesn't show exactly what you are looking for and it will look like a buy chance all throughout.

Hence, there is nothing wrong with the current situation and we should be feeling fine about not buying if we want to wait a bit more. Or just put price in your mind, I will buy if it goes to 25k, and I will buy if it reaches 33k as well, and be ready for all possibilities.
1090  Economy / Gambling / Re: Gambling Brand Name Vs Site Functionality? Or Both? on: May 27, 2022, 09:22:09 AM
A gambling brand name is the force of attraction most casinos operators sees in attracting gamblers to their site, we all know that uniqueness in brand name is as well important to both the gambler and the casinos operators, some brand names have meaning behind the name used and same also is applicable to the functionality of those casinos and sport sites, gamblers needed to derive reasonable satisfaction in their services as aspected, with this good experience they might be able to make reference for a good recommendation.
I agree that brand name matters but the discussion here is not if it is a good idea to have a good brand name or not, the discussion is that is it more important to have a better functionality or a better name. Which is clear to me to be fair, if you have a better site functionality then not such a great brand name wouldn't mind. Even primedice started years and years ago and they didn2t care about such a name, and after getting super rich they acquired the name stake.

This should be something that casinos think afterwards, plus you do not really need to consider what you have at that point, just consider the situation at hand which should be getting better website, then you can think about the name.
1091  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: May 27, 2022, 07:24:23 AM
As a Bayern supporter i can only hope that the Bayern officials will not pay 80 Million € for Mane. I mean don't get me wrong, he definitely is a great player and he has proven that for a long period of time now but i just don't think that Bayern needs another winger, because they already have 3 world class players for those 2 positions with Gnabry, Coman and Sane. Also i would not like it if Bayern would spend that much money on a player that is already 30 years old. Yes he can probably still player 3 or 4 years on the highest level but still 80 Million are to much in that case in my opinion. I would prefer it if they would spend such a large amount of money on a player that is still young and has a lot of potential for the years to come.
That depends. If he comes in and fits in the plans then he will be a great signing, 80 million is nothing for a club like Bayern and they will be super happy to get him. However, if he doesn't fit the plan then it is going to be a problem.

What we need to remember is that Klopp has a strategy and he gets players that would fit that plan, you could be the greatest player in the world, and not be amazing at Liverpool because you may not fit the plan, your could be the best LFC player (like mane for example) and not be great somewhere else, all because you shined in that plan. So, if Bayern thinks they could get Mane and use him efficiently, he would be great, but if not, then a bad transfer.
1092  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Europa Conference League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Final! on: May 26, 2022, 08:20:48 PM
Because the conference league is just running for the first time and we see Roma as the first cup winner.
Mourinho did a very good job, I didn't think it would last 1-0 until the end because of Feyenoord's dominance of Roma from attack and so many chances, but Mourinho was able to do a great defense so Roma can win this season.
The players are really happy with what has been achieved and Mourinho is still good in terms of the final to get it done.
Seem like a parking bus strategy, AS Roma keeps it holds 1-0 until the finish. I don't watch the match also, but when we look at how they spent a lot of money for this year, they have deserved but with notes for championship 3 level, I think Mourinho still has not much to offer the trophy for this year, seem like failed. but, congrats for his struggle.
That is what Mourinho is famous for and I expected the same. However, if you watched the game you would know that Roma literally had attacks on 80th+ minute and that means they weren't really parking the bus.

When you park the bus that means all 11 of your players could be in your half and you will simply just not try to get scored on and that's it. Whereas, Roma actually attacked, even missed a goal at around 84th minute if I am not wrong, so Mourinho is showing glimpses of changing his style. He has been such a defensive minded coach all his life that eventually that caused him a bit of a trouble and he "dropped" to Roma in a few years from UCL winner Real levels.
1093  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Few Steps To Avoid Losses In Trading. on: May 26, 2022, 07:46:05 PM
The main thing to learn is psychology, where most traders feel afraid when floating plus, and feel relaxed when doing floating minus, without knowing the limits of their tolerance. so that when you make a profit, you only get a little and when you lose, you experience a big loss. therefore we must study trading analysis, so that trading will be according to the analysis path that has been made. With discipline towards analysis, we as traders will be able to know the development of trading knowledge within us
I agree that there is a situation where trading is not that much of a big trouble if you know what you are doing. But unfortunately there isn't anything that we could do to change that easily. I understand that it is not going to be easy to learn, but you will be able to avoid losses if you are better at it.

This is why veterans do not trade every single day, they watch and see what could be better. You do not see a hawk dive in and get it's prey every minute, they wait for their most vulnerable moment and attack at that point. That is how you need to be, like a hawk, and wait patiently from above to see which coin will be prime to buy at which moment.
1094  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Who’s itching to buy? on: May 26, 2022, 11:29:33 AM
Stick to your own so that you wont really be regretting once you do made out a bad decision because if you do tend to follow others and turns out to be negative then you would really be having that regret inside which isnt something good.Its better to lose with your own analysis and preference rather than on hearing out other peoples suggestions which is just really simply the same or simple speculation or prediction.
Buy if you do see that it is the bottom price and dont let yourself easily panic on times like these since its been really just a normal cycle for this market to have on where not all the times
we are seeing high or huge numbers.There's always a correction next in line.
Making a mistake all by yourself is not a bad thing because you know where it went wrong and you could avoid doing that again. However, if you have no idea what went wrong and you are just following a person, then if that person doesn't make you any money then you will stop following that person and follow another person.

Always learn to trade yourself, I would understand following others when you are a newbie, you could follow them until you learn yourself, but anyone who has been in crypto for over a month should be able to make their own decisions, if not then just buy bitcoin and you could make a profit that way without taking much risk.
1095  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: why we should Buy some Bitcoins on: May 26, 2022, 05:55:30 AM
Bitcoin is in high demand in the crypto world. Bitcoin is not just a digital currency, it is now considered a goldsmith's asset. In terms of price, the price of Bitcoin is much cheaper now if it is considered in terms of maximum price. So Bitcoin is worth to invest right now.
Don't have to now think of Bitcoin to be a good investment for a few years ago Bitcoin is also very good for you to invest. Imagine you invested 5 years ago maybe you can relax by the beach enjoying your day with the benefits you get.
This is the same thing for the next 5 years as well but people are not seeing it, that's the sad part about it. I mean if you invested 5 years ago, it was around a few thousand dollars at best and then it went up to 20k as well and we reached 68k peak ATH price as well.

However, it is 30k right now and I believe that in 5 years by 2027 we are going to see it around 200k at least, that's nearly 7x difference and that should be in the minds of everyone. If you are not seeing it reach there, then it is your loss and I believe that it will reach there and we are going to make a lot of profit if we buy right now and wait for it to reach that level. Consider putting more and more money in the next 5 years as well, that would be awesome.
1096  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Hard earned money - Busted in seconds on: May 25, 2022, 08:10:41 AM
it only showed that they are gambling on what they cannot afford anymore, and the fact that they are thinking of recovering their losses, will only make them lose more as they will not give up until they will fully recover their losses. Sometimes, losing discipline in gambling will result to bigger problem, as instead of using an strategy that will work, we are only following our emotion.
Gambling on what you can't afford to lose is the number one mistake and unfortunately done by so many gamblers, and even investors as well. I have seen too many people commit suicide over this Luna deal. If you are investing money that you would commit suicide over, then maybe you shouldn't really invest that money? I mean the odds of your investment going from 80+ dollars each to under 1 cents is not that common I agree with that, but it still doesn't mean that it can't happen.

Hence, gamblers and investors needs to only put money in there that they are willing to lose, otherwise it makes no sense to keep it there. That's just what I think it should be doing, not invest money you would cry over.
1097  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: May 25, 2022, 01:32:40 AM
what happens in france and germany is something bad, there is no competition, in france PSG is simply undefeatable in the matter of being the winner of the championship, the same has happened in the bundesliga. for example:

If I ask everyone who do you think will be next season's Ligue 1 champions? everyone will have no doubts that it will be PSG, so everyone will just be betting on the games of the other teams and also on some PSG games but no one will have expectations about who will be the champion because everyone already knows that PSG will be champions even before the championship itself starts
That's right, it does even look like the championship thing is in the hands of even before the league restarts.
But indeed things like this may be very difficult to change, because there is no club that can make the league more attractive because it has lost in terms of financial and player strength, so it is very natural that there is no one who can be used as a rival there.
Maybe in this case the Bundesliga is still Dortmund and in Ligue 1 there is still Marseille which is still called Rivalry but again this becomes tasteless
PSG could be champions in this league, that wouldn't be shocking to anyone but the fact is that they are owned by a rich person is the only reason. If another rich person ever buys one French team, then we are going to slowly see a big competition start. This is why I suggest not to let these people do takeovers to these teams, it makes the league a lot worse.

What did anyone gain from that oil king type of person own PSG? Now France is a horrible league that I rarely ever watch. And they suck in UCL as well, money can't buy you championship there, because the teams there are also great teams and results with clashing experience versus money.
1098  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 on: May 25, 2022, 01:00:15 AM
Honestly, it was half Barcelona not playing great, half the league not being that important anymore. They finished second, and Barcelona-Madrid combo finished 1-2 plenty of times before, even though Barcelona had some problems at the start of the season, the end result is something expected from any year and wasn't a shock, they need to thank Xavi for this.

The only downside could be that just because he had a good comeback and got them finish second, they could wait a lot from him next year, and may even spend some money. In that situation they shouldn't really lose hope if they do badly for a while, it will get better in the long run.
This is necessary even I feel if Xavi is not there then maybe we will not see Barcelona in the Europa League or Champions League next season, considering that for the beginning of the season until the middle of the season they really are not like Barcelona and fortunately Xavi is here and made a breakthrough that resulted in quite rapid progress here.
But towards the end I don't know why Xavi wasn't as intense as usual because if we look at the last few games before the end of the season their form wasn't very good.
Xavi is definitely the main reason why they are doing so well. We need to realize that Xavi is a marvellous coach, and he knows how to play the tiki-taka system that Barcelona played years ago and do it better right now which would be basically just a gegenpress version of tiki-taka that they played 10 years ago.

This is why he is such a great manager, he sees the developments in the world of football and he could put that to work as well. I do not know why they would ever consider firing him, but if they ever do because of bad results, they would be making the biggest mistakes of their lives. Even if they get a bad result here and there, they should be still be patient about him.
1099  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: May 25, 2022, 12:16:51 AM
I don't know how that feels to Hakan Calhanoglu after getting a ribbing from Zlatan at the parade party. Milan had great success after he moved to rival inter. that moment is used to prove that Milan is better without him. We don't know next, Zlatan has got old, maybe he doesn't want to play again and prepare to retire like his promise in the next session.
for sure he's in a bad shape right now considering it's not just Zlatan but so many fans and even meme creators who made this even bigger and a joke at the end of this season.
  he went to a rival because he wanted to win the Scudetto but after a season he left instead the Scudetto came to Milan, it's like a reversal which is quite unbelievable lol.
For Zlatan maybe this will be the end for him as previously promised because regardless of his current age it is enough to retire there even he can retire with pride because he can win the title in his last season
Zlatan is definitely a great player, but he is not really the reason why they won the championship is he? I mean sure he is great and all, even at his age he has been amazing but we are talking about a 41 year old Zlatan. On the other hand Hakan Calhanoglu may have finished the season second, but he is a big part of being second and why they won the cup as well and why they were at quarter finals of UCL as well.

So, I would say that Hakan played a much better season than Zlatan. What this means is, Zlatan basically joked about how Hakan is bad and he finished better thanks to his teammates and not him. That is not what Zlatan does, so he thinks he contributed more than he actually did.
1100  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Did you live through the last bear market ? If so, what did you learn ? on: May 24, 2022, 03:18:10 PM
I believe even if you came here like couple of years ago, you already experienced a lot of mini bear markets. And at some point, you already lost something owed to your investments. I don't think you will have a perfect record of always gaining from your investments. But if you are, you are one of the lucky few. What I am trying to say here, is that even if you are a relatively newcomer in this industry, by now, you already got some good tips on what to do during bearish season. And if you are a strong believer of bitcoin and you have money to spare with, I guess, you are slowly accumulating your bitcoin to prepare for the possible increase of bitcoin in the next coming days.
Even someone who has been here for just 2018 to today, would know what's going on. However, bitcoin is such a new thing is that 10 years ago nobody talked about it, so when you look at 5 years ago, which is half of that, suddenly we are at 20k and everyone talked about it.

This shows you that even though bitcoin moves rapidly, the difference between 2012 to 2017 is HUGE whereas from 2017 to 2022 it is not that huge. Our peak in 2017 was 20k, and we are at 30k right now, whereas our peak before 2017 was 1.4k, and it was 20k during 2017 peak times. We are going up, and making a good amount of profit but that's majorly thanks to dropping low first and then going back up, not from peak to peak.
