1141  Economy / Economics / Re: China will rule world as economy king after crisis end? on: June 27, 2020, 01:41:58 AM
I agree with you with everything you say. I think that China will control the world and will be the queen of the economy after the end of the Corona crisis. The Chinese economy is very strong and it is difficult to fall. This is what really happened.

You are right that China is extremely powerful but I don't think that China will rule the planet because of the king of the economy. nobody will accept China asking if most are blaming China for this crisis.

I don't think we should overrate that to be the ruler of the planet.

It doesn't mean that you are reigning as the biggest economy, they would be able to do that. Despite the fact that China is the one who started this pandemic, they are also affected by this largely. Every country is affected by all of this, what we can do know is just take care of ourselves since as long as we are here, we will be able to restart.
1142  Economy / Economics / Re: Rise in US unemployment. Thoughts? on: June 26, 2020, 03:29:51 PM
This time, the disease might break out again. Many workers will have to lose their jobs and face the prospect of no food to survive. This will affect the US economy very badly and it is likely that the market will witness strong sell-offs again. We should be more careful in our future business. disease can flare up again at any time.

What do you mean by "break out again"?

The disease is already a problem and I don't think we should use the word "again" since it is already here and continuously spreading across the nation. In our country, the cases are continuously increasing and the government already said that the vaccine might be next year. The US was hit by this pandemic, not just unemployment but some businesses were already closed. With the losses of some businesses, I think it is really inevitable for them to decrease their workers. Not just in the US but in a lot of countries as well. Fresh graduates are mainly affected by this too.
1143  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: centralize money vs. decetralized money (bitcoin) on: June 26, 2020, 11:22:54 AM
Centralize money come with oppressors and dictators while the decentralize money come with freedom and full control. There is a distinct difference between the two types of money and for those who cares about their freedom should embrace the decentralize financial system than the centralize system. With Bitcoin, you are in control, have the authority needed for your accounts and authorization immediate.

While this is true, there are also those disadvantages.

Since this is a decentralized community, people are not really protected with the scams and hacks that are happening. A lot of people are getting hacked and getting scammed but they can't really tell it to someone for those hackers and scammers to get back his money or maybe get them to jail. I am not against decentralization but people should be aware of those too. Though if you know what you are doing and you can take care of your wallet, secure it. I guess there are no problems about that at all.
1144  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: HOW TO BECOME SUCCESSFUL AT CRYPTO TRADING on: June 26, 2020, 09:39:29 AM
Being successful is hard, especially with this market unless you really are full into it.
Hope you didn't mean "full time" trading as lots of part time traders as well enjoying their successful run with crypto trading.

The level we are showing dedication should be at full and the eagerness to learn new things should be at full. Continuous learning this the simple trick to enjoy success in trading forever.

No, you already said it, DEDICATION.

Since time is a friend of investing, it is better if you are not fully in it since you could continue your career and not be fully enveloped by the activities in your trading. There are those disadvantages if your attention is fully in investing since with the volatile movements, you might have doubt on what to do and you might overthink most of the time.
1145  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: HOW TO BECOME SUCCESSFUL AT CRYPTO TRADING on: June 26, 2020, 08:27:43 AM
It is the nature of cryptocurrency trading.

If you don't want a volatile market, then I guess you should think twice before riding this wave. This wave is really violent and made a lot of people losses in the past years that it is in the market. With the same wave, people earned a lot of profits and it started a lot of successful traders and comfortable living. Being successful is hard, especially with this market unless you really are full into it.
1146  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Never Before Experience On Gambling...!!!! Stay Safe. on: June 26, 2020, 07:00:44 AM
Online and offline gambling are different and the difference is very clear I think and also, gambling is not a hypnosis that will make you forget everything because in gambling itself greed is the main factor that will make you not have good control, in this case when you can keep your mindset good so I think you will also easily be able to control yourself in gambling.
Gambling is not a hypnosis but its more likely a trap, once you get trapped then its not possible to get out from it without others help so that is why we have to stay away from the trap.

Actually, there are those that got out of gambling by themselves.

It might be hard or not that hard for them but what I want to say is that it is doable. You can get out of gambling by yourself as long as you have the fire to do it. If you really wanted to get out of gambling, you find a way, you find a reason. You are the master of yourself.
1147  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Physical Casinos Decoded : on: June 26, 2020, 05:00:39 AM
If we look at the life of people in those stories, most of them already lost all their money into gambling again or just left the gambling career and started investment career.

If people after a large number of losses left their gambling career and took up another business, this is a good result. It is much worse if people constantly lose and keep playing and playing.

That kind of person will be in deep debt later on. If a player has no self control in gambling, that's when he starts experiencing problems not only financially, but emotionally. There is no trick in casinos as their main objective is to really make money. So the choice is left to the player if he wants to be buried on that life or not.

I think we can help those people.

I know that it is their fault being burned out or maybe being addicted to gambling(that I hope did not happen) but we should help them in some ways. We have long threads here about the negative effects of gambling and most of the people here knew how bad it is, it might be hard but in a way, we should help those people. It is not late for them to change.
1148  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: PAGCOR waiting for the approval to reopen land-based casinos. on: June 26, 2020, 01:25:59 AM
What I'm saying is it's possible that virus can be transmitted in a casino, but other industries or businesses will be more prone to that.

I think it would be more prone to casinos.

Some people are actually thinking that the virus is no more and they treat it like a normal day with just a facemask on.  Despite the "new normal", I think people would still be at risk since a lot of people would obviously be in a table they can't stop people from coming in and out of the place. I hope more people would realize that it is riskier to bet in a casino.
1149  Economy / Economics / Re: What if this pandemic persists till the end of the year? on: June 26, 2020, 12:38:38 AM
Slowly, in our country, jobs are going back to normal.

People are actually getting back to their jobs and some actually are finding ways to get a source of income like for example, people are doing reselling in online shops. Some actually are starting to use the internet to earn money. The cases here are still adding up so I don't think it would be completely normal here, we should be used to the new normal and I think that would be for long.
Well, that's what this crisis does. It makes us resourceful so that we can live and survive until this pandemic comes to an end. However, as jobs are slowly getting back to normal but the curve is not flattening, it's still risky to go out. But it's a sacrifice people has to make for their family.

We're halfway through 2020 and there's still no vaccine available, so it's not impossible that the pandemic will persist till the end of the year. Our President, PRRD, even said on a briefing that the vaccine might be available at the first quarter of 2021. Each and everyone of us should really help each other out so we can get through this. Those with the capacity to help shall help and keep ourselves healthy to fight this virus.

That would really take long and I don't know if the people could survive that.

There are those places that are safe but there are a lot of them that are prone to the virus especially those close to the capital of the country. Right now the Visayas is the focus of the MGs since most of the cases are from there because of the "Balik-Probinsya Program" which is good for those people stranded but worst for those people that should be safe from the virus. That is just bad decision right there.

1151  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Earn and save in Satoshi on: June 25, 2020, 03:59:23 AM
This should be the mindset.

People are just looking at how they would be able to earn money out of it not thinking how they would be earning more in the long run. Though, I am thinking that the way you said, to cheat the process is like to scam, hack or steal others cryptocurrencies or investments. Well, we have our own way of getting our own investments and I just hope it is not the way I think other people get it.

You got to start from somewhere, earning and saving in satoshis is a good start in my opinion, and it's an investment too, when you save in crypto. Later you can diversify and exchange earned bitcoins for some other coins or tokens, but that is individual decision, people are free to do with crypto what ever people like, it's the beauty of the crypto, be your own bank and do what you want with your money without restrictions.
Who have wish to learn and to develop skills will be able to earn in long run and to earn more, who is lazy will get stuck at some point, and that's fine too, each of us have some unique point of view and personality, so we need to respect sharks that wish to grow and earn more, and lazy people wh are satisfied with low earnings for some simple jobs.

That is right.

It is been a saying in our family that if you are good, and you hit a wall in your life, there will be a lot of people that will help you. Being that bad will just make you hit a wall without any help unless you turn to good. It is not always about the speed of how you get there, it is how hard you get there and how you developed yourself to deserve it.
1152  Economy / Speculation / Re: Continue to Hold your bitcoin on: June 25, 2020, 02:56:20 AM
I think the current market trend is Bullish, because the history of previous years shows like that,
but the market is currently confused, hopefully bitcoin is in strong support

Don't worry, it is.

It is been falling in the past a lot of times and it never stayed there. Remember this year when the price went back to almost $4K and then it just went back quickly ahead to $3K in a short period? That is how I am certain that a lot of people are actually waiting for that price dump to happen. If the price falls again, no doubt that it will just go back again.

Bloomberg analyst shares why the bitcoin price will double to 20000$ this year in 2020. According to Mike Mcglone senior commodities analyst at Bloomberg, bitcoin is going to hit 20000 Dollars by the end of 2020. READ THE COMPLETE BLOG AND SHARE YOUR OPINION ....WHAT U THINK ...PLEASE READ THE COMPLETE BLOG TO KNOW ON WHAT BASIS THIS PREDICTION IS DONE .

Giving an exact possible amount through prediction method is the thing that everyone shouldn't be cling on.  The fact that crypto is volatile is more than enough to make yourself safe not unless if you don't mind to that.

People should not really get on with it like that since it is the reason why it is called a prediction.

Prediction is just a guess based on the movements that are happening, it might be good or bad but it will not happen 100%. With the volatility of Bitcoin and other things that could affect it, we don't have the certainty that it will actually reach a certain price. All we can do now is to wait and look out for the price chart since it is the one that will tell us.
1154  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: PAGCOR waiting for the approval to reopen land-based casinos. on: June 25, 2020, 01:41:02 AM
It might be soon, but for now the number of infected are still increasing here in the Philippines. I know Philippine government still working on that. Hoping for there best  response if they allow to reopen the gambling industry or they have to remain it close for the safety of there people.

Still increasing and the government can't stop it.

In the same case, we will never be able to stop the approval of PAGCOR since as far as I know it is already approved. All we can hope right now is for them to follow the new norm. It is the best choice for the people and the country itself since we will be able to regain slowly the dumping economy of the country and the people getting back to their jobs.

This will always be me and I think this is the best one.

I know for sure that I am risking my money in gambling and I can't really tell whether I will win or not since we usually rely on luck here and if I win, even in a smaller streak, this is always my expression. POG! or maybe pogchamp. And yeah, what happened in this clip is really mindblowing too.
1156  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: "NEW NORMAL" Betting on: June 23, 2020, 10:51:28 AM
Agree to that, there are more casinos where girls are more decent wearing uniforms, though they are attractive and really eye catching first impressions but they are decent and working without any interference with anyone inside the house. Most gamblers are playing to be entertained and if there's a chance to win decent out from the  casinos, maybe there's some who are flirting out but not the majorities.

It's basically not the first thing that comes out to the mind of the gamblers why they visit casinos, if that is, there would be no one to play gambling online.  The main reason why gamblers are always winning is because of the satisfaction they could get if they see their funds growing easily, the outside factors such as interaction with friends, dealers, and the fun while playing together is just secondary.

If I will choose, I think it is more convincing if I could receive free meals while playing than thinking of girls as an inspiration to play.


Totally agree here.

There are those gamblers that put girls as one of their reasons for going to casinos and I think this really depends on the people since as I said, there are those that think like that or want that. But I agree that I'd rather have a meal or maybe a bonus rather than putting girls as my reason or my fuel in betting in these casinos. I could just go to a club or maybe to a brothel for that, though I don't think brothel is legal nowadays.
1157  Economy / Economics / Re: How in the world we going to restart the world economy ? on: June 23, 2020, 10:00:47 AM
Here in our country, I can feel the people needing help especially those that don't have a job.

But most of the people are starting as usual. There are still that can't go to their jobs and there are those that already started weeks ago. Despite the national debt of our country, I guess people are doing great and slowly going back to normal, well, new normal. We can't just rely on the government here, people will be able to help and since most of the people here are skilled with how to earn money, they are using the internet now to earn. Reselling, online shops and there are also those that deliver food and other things.
1158  Economy / Economics / Re: Financial Crisis Will Come on: June 21, 2020, 10:16:36 AM
In situations of economic crash, it is smart to adapt and switch to means that will provide easy ways of patronizing other services and items without having to spend much money. It is not always a matter of waiting on the governments to bring solutions. There are many online jobs available for those who permanently or temporarily lost their jobs during corona virus outbreak.There are also other means of selling and buying using cryptocurrency and other forms of digital money or even barter trading with neighbours (this must be done with precautions because of COVID-19)

I don't think that is a good solution.

Not all of us have a cryptocurrency and not all of us will be able to accept and use it as payment. Not just because they do not know how will they use it but because only a few of the stores or merchants accept it. Though it is really a good time for people to adapt and use the means that we have the internet, there are convenient and better ways to earn using that.

1160  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Buying food or groceries with Bitcoin on: June 21, 2020, 07:53:03 AM
I don't think that grocery markets accepting Bitcoin will be so popular in the future. It's a cool startup idea and can improve crypto adoption, but it isn't very convenient for retailers.

I don't think at that time we are still talking about the cryptocurrency adoption.

If we will be at that time, then that means the demand of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency is so high that people are actually using it and the price might be so high. It is not a choice or an option for merchants and stores to accept it, they will automatically consider it since people are already using it.

It is convenient for those people but right now, they can't just get ahold of the volatility of it.
