This dude broke the records of three pointers and then some like nobody has seen. Before Curry started to make three point shots something very common and can be done in huge volumes, Ray Allen was the person with the most threes in a year, and that was 269 threes in a season, you know what Curry has? 402, yes that's right, he not only took 269 and broke over 300, he broke over 400 at the same time. Even James Harden who is a big time three pointer now, couldn't get there, and this dude has 3 of the best three pointer seasons in the top 5, HALF of top 10 as well.

So, I think we have to give him the fact that he was and still is one of the best players in the league offensively, sure he may not be awesome on defense, but when it comes to scoring, there are rarely any players who can score like him, but also draw defense to him as well, he starts to get defended by half court, when gets closer he gets doubled or even triple teamed. That's talent.

Juventus is not doing "that" bad, sure they are not where they were expecting themselves to be but many leagues are having similar problem with their teams, premier league has Manchester city lower than expected, la liga has Barcelona, and some other leagues have their own, great teams are not doing great this year. On the other hand, Juventus is 10 points behind with 1 game down, if they win that it is only 7 points down.

In a situation where there is only 15 games played, and normally 38 games played (hopefully) I think it is obvious that there is a looooong way to go for calling them down right now, they could still recover very quickly. I am not saying Juventus will be the champions, I am just saying it is too early to call them out of the race already, they are only 5th with one game in hand, so they are not really that far behind to call off race yet.

It’s not a new occupation, it has been like that for years now, unless you’re just referring to cryptocurrency trading because I have seen people who are full-time traders. But this is not something that’s meant for everyone, you need have raised enough funds and have strong knowledge in the business, if not you’re going to wreck yourself.

I had my own business and was trading when I had nothing doing, I’d just bring out my laptop and start trading, and till now I don’t do trading full-time, but there are people who do it, and they have been doing it for long time.

But how do you know that? I mean if someone claims the NBA is rigged surely they must have watched something happened that was botched or something, right? One who does not watch NBA can't even make any claims.

True and the salary for players is huge so risking their life and career over some money would not be a wise and viable option but there might be other parts of the NBA being rigged like the Referee might be botching a few calls intentionally and maybe sometimes can be other officials like the review center that might botch a play by showing wrong/inconclusive angles. A lot of possibilities are there but personally speaking, I don't think it was rigged just because players played after a long time and without crowd the games were below the average NBA quality.

Bitcoin is the first and it keeps taking the upper hand for that, nothing changes that. Many other digital currencies has been create and said to be better than Bitcoin due to one feature or the other that they carry, but at the end they can’t replace the cryptocurrency BTC which is the pioneer of the crypto space.

I am lucky I discovered cryptocurrency, it has served so many purposes for me, transaction hasn’t been the only thing though it’s the first, but in investment it has been good, and with that said, I’d like to add that Bitcoin is my first asset that I ever bought with my money. Despite that it was new then, I still believed in it, and this time around no one can tell me that it’s fake, because I have seen how far it came.

We have only seen bull run happen twice, so how sure can you be that bull run happens I’m every four years, what if that’s not going to be the same this time around? What if things are not going to work that same way as you thought ? And if it’s going to be every four years, then I guess we are seeing the next bull run in 2021 and not this year 2020. We can’t tell if another all time high price will be anytime soon.

Exactly, it can be coincidence. But most of them misunderstood everything. Even the newbies that are joining are just joining because they are expecting the same thing to repeat itself so they can get rich and dump Bitcoin and leave. None of them talks about the technology any longer, it’s only when there will be another bull run.

I agree that OTC could be the way to go but if you are really buying that much, wouldn't buying from the market make it better? I mean think about it, the price is 10k and you want to buy 700 million dollars worth of bitcoin, shouldn't that mean you would increase the market a ton?

People would see that you are buying from one exchange and they will want to buy/sell in order to do arbitrage to make money thanks to you, but the best case would be price going up no matter what since not that many people have 700 million dollars and not that quickly, worst case would be price still standing still, grayscale is not losing anything at all. I would say OTC is the "safe" method and they probably did that obviously, but market buying would have made it a lot more volatile and increase the price as well.

Absolutely this is one thing that people are yet to learn because if we had to trade with stable markets and prices then we can always do currency trading in pairs like USD/EURO but because we want higher frequency in change of the price we are trading with bitcoins and now people are questioning that which makes no sense.

Because people have developed that kind of a mindset where they feel unless bitcoins rises by 2-3k USD it is not worth it but people are failing to understand that the reason for sudden rise in past was mass adoption which will not happen again with that same intensity again. The price will be more stable now I believe and while the price might rise slowly but that said even the drops should be more shallow so it acts both ways.

Recession can be positive for Bitcoin. Right now there are many countries in recession after coming out from lockdown, and Bitcoin has been positive, except previous negative it experienced around February – March. During recession, most people, especially investors, will be on the lookout for an asset that will help them to retain the value for their money, and as you can see, there are many people buying Bitcoin now. It’s not just people, companies too.

No doubt there, but let’s not forget that when the economy stands and maybe by then Bitcoin reached another peak, it’s going to start falling again and investors will sell their holdings to be able to save their money from reducing. That’s just how it works.

It depends , some people can’t tell whether they are investing in a good crypto, would have been better if you listed the coins you have been buying so that forum members will give their thoughts on them and whether they are a good choice. Sometimes it would be better to leave altcoins that are still very new and go for the old ones that we have all known for a long time.

New cryptocurrencies can be good though, because sometimes if it’s a good cryptocurrency the price can start growing from there, and being one of the early investors means that you will be able to benefit a lot from it. But for now you have to go for the ones you know that are very good and have been able to last for long.

It is actually funny how lack of knowledge dragged the discussion from how provably works to how the casinos are probably fair .

You know what I tried to explain this many times but guys who are reluctant and don't want to understand always tell me that all these calculations can be manipulated and I remember how some guy at a casino once told me that the casino might have the the tool to decode sha and I actually left the chat after that because it was beyond my energy to explain him once he said that.

People enjoy calling probably fair as such casinos are promising they are fair but if they understand the concept they would never even question it again.

Not really. It’s a good cryptocurrency, but being that good doesn’t mean that it must be in the top five. Yes it has very good features, maybe if you start comparing it with other cryptocurrencies, especially those that are in that top five you have said, you will notice that Dash is already in a good position. And a market price of over $60 and market cap of more than $6,00 million isn’t bad anyway.

Dash currently sits in the top thirty, that’s not bad. And there’s still more chances of the price going up in future.

Hi I used to play at bitcasino.io long time back and I loved the games you had that time like the lucky 5 and lucky 7 balls game. I am now actually thinking about playing again and the last time I left the casino because the wagering was too much and I felt really bad, I will be starting to play again and let's see how it goes this time because the casinos looks a lot more improved and it has been like year or more since I last visited and played there.

I am a long time player of your sportsbook sportsbet.io which comes from the same owners right? I somehow forgot about this casino and I was playing on some poor casinos so looking forward to playing there now. I just seriously hope the wagering requirements have improved from the past and there are more cool games now .

As per the Coronavirus. Isn’t it clear that they were the ones who created the virus as a way to lure these developing countries to take loans from them and then fall into their trap, since most of them will be unable to pay back?

I don’t think people were lying when they said the virus was created by China. Every move they have been taking since the Coronavirus says a lot about them being behind the Coronavirus, like they seem to be more prepared ahead of the time for the breakout than every other country. And when the pandemic started, they have been acting nice to these developing countries and sending doctors and nurses to them, then they are also buying companies that failed, and giving out loans lol.

I know right, that’s how it feels, we always want to have everything. There is a topic in this forum that says – Less profit is okay.
And yes the topic is right, getting less profit is okay, you should be happy that you even got over 50% of your investment when there are people seeing the opposite (losing more than 50%).

So don’t be worried about what you have missed, you should learn to be contented with what you have got and then prepare better for the next time when you will be in that position again. I am a long term trader and I prefer it to short term, it works for me perfectly.

Nah, I don’t think I’m in support of the choice you have made. Although I wouldn’t say you shouldn’t go ahead with it, it’s all your choice and you know what’s best for you. But left for me to decide I would choose just Bitcoin and Ethereum, and nothing else.

Those two has been what’s working for me for a long time now. And I don’t get why you have decided to put Ethereum as least, when it’s clear that Ethereum is far more better than the other two you have placed as second and third choice. And you have said that lots of ICOs are scam, that has nothing to do with Ethereum, ETH itself is legit and is not a scam.

If you are earning an income, you should act like a citizen and pay the taxes. Bitcoin was developed keeping decentralization in mind i.e. to eliminate the interference of any third-party institution and not as something to hide your black money with. It is only fair if government imposes taxes on it and stops money laundering and other illegal activities.

Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrencies if left unregulated, will give rise to many illegal activities and also increase its usage as payment method on the dark web.
