121  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Renzo Airdrop on: May 01, 2024, 07:58:11 AM
it was not a good airdrop for the length of the staking period in itself, i think they raised the supply for airdrop knowing that the value of REZ isn't that much, so to avoid the rage they just went with different plan.
I think this recent week most of staking rewards has been quite bleak, starting from eigenlayer where the airdrop itself was complete disappointment some people locking $50k for months and only get 5% of their initial capital as the reward, followed with kamino thats just also quite bleak in term of airdrop value after it got listed and the premarket shown.
but from my observation those that staked their money from the very beginning still got some good airdrop reward.
but for me at this point where eth price and btc price already high anyway, it might not be that much beneficial to stake unless we are talking about really good project that care about its community allocating massive supply for their community.

we have been past the halving, bitcoin doesn't need occurrences to increase its price but bitcoin does can be helped if there's occurrences that somehow can make bitcoin more popular for example acceptance of bitcoin in china and other countries, it'd be great if that happens for real i'm pretty sure the price of bitcoin overall gonna pumps.
but seeing the bitcoin price statistic i'm pretty confident that even without those the market gonna increase. after all until now if you see the price of bitcoin by the span of decade, the price always linearly grows, quite literally from the very bottom so i'm not worried about the price of bitcoin increasing into another level anyway.
but for example if there's other thing such as ETH ETF news then it might also create tension in crypto market making people excited where it might helps the price of bitcoin increases.
overall its already a good prospect that bitcoin is having right now no need to worry about future occurrences.

MBA is nothing if you dont know how to use knowledge or havent developed right set of skills for business. A lot of MBA students know theory, but when they are given tasks, they cant do anything, because they dont have any experience. If someone thinks, that after getting MBA, his company will be more successful than other on the market, then such person will be surprised to find out that market is rules not by the level of diploma, but by people.
agreed MBA doesn't really help if we never have the chance to try out a business, there are plenty of MBAs out there that getting the degree solely for getting career improvement to say that getting MBA for the sole purpose of starting company might just seem to be a mundane action.
I think its better to start out the business first, figure out how the market reacts to your products, see whether your business can have the opportunities then get the MBA later on.
MBA can wait, but building business usually you don't know whether you gonna gain success or not, though if you can do both at the same time its gonna be enough I guess, even right now there are many MBA online programs anyway, its easy to get.
its only become urgent if you really need that MBA to maybe apply for a higher position job. otherwise seems like a waste of time and money from my opinion, i mean thats just my 2 cents.

well i've seen that korean people are so invested into cryptocurrencies going as far as trading it very frequently and also they are among the top nation to invest into the newer projects as I've seen so far.
its no wonder that they are leading crypto trading volume, personally i've also subscribed to many korean telegram channel about trading insights and signal for so on, not necessarily to follow it but to gain insight into what korean people are actually trading.
I'm not realy sure whether korean tops the US dollar, but they are indeed among the most dominating when it comes to crypto trading.
regardless though we still need the good news to be coming from shang hai and hongkong to make market move.

it'd be great if other asian countries are also being competitive in cryptocurrency field, there are so many things to explore so that entire world could participate into the development of cryptocurrencies in general, south korean has done it, other can too.

when every trader out there think TA is effective despite if its truly what you said just illusion and its all fake it will become self fulfilling prophecy, the people will massively follow textbook guide of TA, then the chart will form as expected just like in the guide, its not entirely useless, also TA quite entangled with the economic principle, a market can be ovesold you know and that could be reflected in TA.
always remember that the market of crypto or stocks sometime is just not organic like basic commodity where supply meet demands sometime psychological influence of the market affects trader and affects how the market gonna behave in the long run.
so TA i think has use in this case, bullish candles shows that we are in for a good market where everything is bullish and the sign is obvious current market is rather bullish and if you see new emerging coin, most of them are achieving success reaching billions of dollar market cap, so I don't think its all fake, manipulated or something like that.
126  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season on: April 29, 2024, 04:55:59 PM
Just like you rightly said, Bayer Leverkusen on paper have is easily the favorite team to win their UEFA Europa League semi final tie against AS Roma because of their superior performance in all competitions this season but because of how impressive the Italian club have been since Daniele De Rossi took over the managerial position at the club, I don think it'll be good idea not to give the the German team a chance of pulling a surprise in the two legged tie. Roma since their current manager took over have been exceptionally impressive which is why they were able to eliminate a big club like AC Milan from the UEFA Europa League competition  so against Bayer Leverkusen, I think the Roma has chance of reaching the final
Leverkusen are stronger than Roma and create more impression in this season than Roma. They also have better preparation for the first semi final match because they don't have to spend their best resources for their match in Bundesliga. Roma oppositely had to use their best players for Serie A match with Napoli and they still need to fight in Serie A for a fourth or fifth position. Roma's current position means they still have risk to lose a fifth position to Atalanta and Lazio so they will need to keep their eyes on two competitions, Europa League and Serie A.

Leverkusen will have big advantage against Roma in both two semi final matches because the schedule of Roma is very terrible. They have two matches with Napoli and Juventus before two semi finals with Leverkusen.

Bayer leverkusen performance is better than AS Roma, but what we are supposed to put into consideration is that AS Roma are struggling in two leagues because in serie A they are struggling to get more than 4 points to make it to the 4th place, while at the same time they are trying to struggle to the final in the Europa League. which we know will be hard for them, but still, I don't think it will be surprising that AS Roma win Bayer Leverkusen in the semi-final. I also know it will be hard due to Bayer Leverkusen's record this season. But what I am putting into consideration is that Bayer Leverkusen are in any way in threat while AS Roma are fully in threat in both leagues, but I still have hope that AS Roma will do better in this season, but to be sincere, AS Roma are going through a hard time.
Leverkusen's performance looked like better than roma caused by it's still remain unbeatable, right? Things may be different when it will face roma soon which is one of strong team from serie a. Im not even underestimating roma, i knew roma has potential to beat leverkusen and break its record.
You may be aware how strong liverpool afrer you will see by your eyes about how hard lukaku to be stopped by leverkusen's defenders. Roma looks like a weak team but bundesliga is not as competitive as serie a.
127  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: April 29, 2024, 04:52:36 PM
When Liverpool lost by Everton with a very disappointing score of 2-0, I already thought that Liverpool had experienced a decline in performance. So yes,even after losing against Everton and then Liverpool playing against West Ham, but I actually think Liverpool will lose again. But yes, the result was that Liverpool managed to hold West Ham to a draw with a score of 2-2, but in reality, Liverpool's next two matches also meant that Liverpool had difficult opponents. Because Liverpool has opponents like Tottenham and Aston Villa and after these two matches,Liverpool will play their last match of the season against Wolves and for me, Liverpool will be difficult to win in a situation like this.
Unfortunately, Liverpool lost a lot of points against not the strongest teams, and now that their game is not going well, they will have to play with stronger teams, so Liverpool's losing streak may continue. I’m not sure that they still have the opportunity to change something in the Premier League, they are now 5 points behind Arsenal, and it is impossible to win back such a difference in just a few matches. And for Arsenal now only need to hope, that City will lose points in one of the matches, even a draw will be enough, since Arsenal have the best goal difference.

Liverpool lost of points to midtable teams such as West Ham and Palace and that's the key owned by liverpool to keep its momentum but it's failed to keep it till the end of season. Villa was in the top four, and I believe it is even better than those clubs who were placing at the midtabl. Liverpool's worst performance occured when it lost against atalanta. The internal conflict between Salah and Klopp made issues worse from time to time.

Liverpool has no more opportunities to change the situation in the Premier League because the gap is too big. They squandered their golden opportunity, and what comes next? Liverpool must concentrate on the coming season and build a winning mentality under arne slot. Winning all of the remaining games does not help the club win the competition.
That is what I understand from the current situation in Liverpool and as you can see some members here talked about how upset salah to the klopp after him being sentoff from the field to the bench. They aren't even thinking about how to perform consistently liverpool since Atlanta destroyed the Reds with huge scores, which was destroying liverpool's mentality.
128  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: April 29, 2024, 04:44:19 PM


Idk, what's plan owned by chelsea and pochettino but this really surprises me to se that how chelsea is interesting to add nico williams to join in the club. This sounds bad consider chelsea is willing to gamble by buying a new winger from bilbao.
This sounds bad for the club, i meant chelsea has so many wingers in the squad. None of these wingers were showing good performance this season.

The 21-year-old will feature on several elite clubs' transfer wish lists this summer, with a €50 million (£43m/$53m) release clause in his contract

Todd boehly is not yet giving up in giving more money to rebuild the club. As a new policy in the club. When chelsea buys a new player and it must also sell an old player. Im only guessing that if nico william will be used to fulfil an available spot owned by thiago silva.
I would rather than chelsea to focus on how to recruit a good defender instead of always putting its focus on the attackers.

The performance from chelsea is far below my expectation. Adding another winger is only creating chaos in the club.
129  Economy / Economics / Re: Starting a business without capital. on: April 29, 2024, 05:04:31 AM
Affiliate marketing is good but it still takes time to build your network and get people to buy from you the truth is capital is my key to any successful business
its always capital isn't it, affiliate marketing only works if we can build a brand to our name making us have good reputation such as those influencers and celebrities, they got endorsement in the first place because they have good reputation and fame, other than that is building our own community through social media then we can leverage the followers or viewers for the sake of advertisement and affiliate marketing.
for people that just doesn't cut it to work for that kind of activity like just don't have the ability to get famous or building community the best way is always having capital and ideas before hand.
starting business from the very bottom building the brand name by spending capital as well as building product MVP using the capital as well.
even though a business without capital exist such as affiliate marketing there's always something required to compensate for the lack of capital, i don't believe its gonna be just easy to do too.

well you might consider it as ugly as it can get when it comes to the first gen NFT but i think they made it that way purposefully, surely the holder of those first gen NFT that are valued really high could afford freelancer artist to make an art thats realistic, probably better than most of art but they don't want that, they want the ugliest NFT there is so that people can remember and I think that works as a marketing stunt too, the fact that they are still valued quite high these days means they succeed.
though if we are talking about the first gen NFT we usually just talking about hypes there's no underlying fundamental backing most of the NFT back in the days its just pure speculation just like how people speculate on meme coin right now, you never know what the intention of those whales pumping the meme coin, never know what motivate people to bag these meme coin, but they doing it anyway and you can only be left wondering.
at least the latest gen NFT have purpose.
131  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: TRADERS are not UNEMPLOYED on: April 29, 2024, 04:39:06 AM
I always consider trader to be like entrepreneur they just don't have fixed line of work as well as fixed schedule they have a purpose that is to make a money then they doing it regardless of the time constraint since they have none also the risk is also there with entrepreneurship you risk losing your capital when starting a business same thing with trading, i mean to be honest people that don't consider trading as a job is kinda ignorant since there are literally people making ton of money by just trading alone that even a salary of $100k a year seems like so small for them.
though there are indeed some people that trade just for side hustle and they don't earn that much since they are not focused on their trading but an income is still an income and their side hustle is pretty much a side job too just like how people are doing two jobs these days its pretty common.
though some people would rather consider whatever job that don't give stable income as not a real job whereas thats pretty biased and I strongly disagree.
132  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Halving is coming, alt season soon? on: April 28, 2024, 10:48:20 AM
I don't think altcoins will have it own special season but it follows the bitcoin Bull Market and the All Time High. Because when bitcoin was rising before the halving altcoins also rise and later they stopped and allowed only bitcoin to rise. And they declined. Then after the halving as bitcoin decline, they took started declining and all are indications that altcoins can't survive without bitcoin and they are following bitcoin whenever it increases and whenever it decreases.

Now that the halving is over bitcoin is also restructuring itself to the All Time High and I don't know if altcoins are also restructuring foe the ATH that upcoming.
the halving causes boost in term of mood of the market, right now its borderline greedy unlike back then when we first reaching $74k it was greedy market but thats a good indicator that we are in the right path.
after all it will be ridiculous if there's sudden bearish which indicated by market fear index that the market is in fear then we might delay the bitcoin reaching its next biggest target.
altcoin will definitely follow, there has been many correlation that altcoins more or less also affected heavily by bitcoin trend like right now due to bitcoin trend and its rally, solana is reaching 20x i doubt such thing could happen if not for bitcoin making the market mood better through the news of ETF and also the halving.
current halving is the most anticipated halving where people across the world are fixated on this news, it will make altcoin and bitcoin go to the moon when time is right.
its just matter of time until the market pumps it just need a little trigger then the market gonna go up so high it broke the records.

using your strategy is fine, sometime you need to open up with the chance of shorting the coin too since you're trading future anyway might as well use whatever position there is to gain profit.
but you will see whether your strategy gonna be sustaining in the long term and whether your daily profit truly making you a daily profit in the long term if you have traded frequent enough to know whether you overall making profit or not, sometime our trade could just really turning bad out of sudden when the market changing direction, right now people are bullish with the market, longing most of coin seem to be most viable way to make profit just pick a coin that are good enough but has been getting correction heavily and long that coin we already make profit.
but what happen if there's sudden market trend change and we incurred loss? thats where the test toward your strategy begins.
134  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will MemeCoins Fuel the Next Crypto Craze? on: April 28, 2024, 09:59:33 AM
I somewhat always consider these meme coin that suddenly achieved such massive market capitalization to be an independent trend to bitcoin bullrun but still entangled somehow i mean with the market trend that is more bullish these meme coin that suddenly reached hundred million dollar market cap are suddenly went up in term of statistics.
I do believe that in every bullrun trend of bitcoin regardless there will be some random meme coin making a name in the market out of nowhere, we don't know how these memecoin could become this massive just within a short span of time I mean even the best project out there that are heavily invested by binance, coinbase and any tier 3 investors and above out there are requiring massive commitment and effort to get to their market capitalization where its usually just few hundred millions of dollar but these meme coin out of a whim just could reach that much price increase.
as long as its contributing towards the flow of investment going in to crypto market though i'm fine, might also try to snipes some of these meme coin someday.
135  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season on: April 27, 2024, 01:01:31 PM
Leverkusen's players are very hardworking. I wouldn't say their squad is too strong. There are no star players in the squad. Still, Leverkusen is playing great. And this is possible because of the strong bonding between the players, as well as because the players are very hard working. In every match we see a better performance from Leverkusen.

While Leverkusen are in great form, Roma are also in a strong position right now. And Roma are hard to beat at the moment. I would say that between Roma vs Leverkusen the team that qualifies for the final will be this year's Europa League champions. However, it cannot be said for sure that Leverkusen will qualify for the final.
Xabi Alonso built Leverkusen's squad this season without relying on just a few players, they have fairly even quality across all lines and the strong chemistry of the players makes Leverkusen's performance quite strong and consistent, from what they have shown since the start of the season is clear proof .

Nothing is certain, Roma is a difficult opponent for Leverkusen, but we also have to see overall that Leverkusen's percentage of getting to the final is slightly greater than Roma.
Leverkusen has everything better than Roma, so it's natural that Leverkusen is a little favorite.

You are right that Xabi Alonso has built a squad that is not dependent on any particular player. Almost all the players in the squad are capable of performing well in their respective positions. And this is why the Leverkusen team is unbeaten so far. and has continued to perform consistently well. Leverkusen players are performing well and getting good results in almost every match.

Although Leverkusen are in very good form, there is no doubt that Roma vs Leverkusen will be a very competitive match. De Rossi's Roma are now strong enough. The bonding between the squad players is now stronger. Players are also able to perform quite well. So this match will not be one sided.
Beating Acmilan in the Europa League is one of the club's major achievements this season by as roma and im sure roma will able to repeat the same result against leverkusen at this time. De Rossi has been developing his club well and it's still going on, and Roma is now performing even better than before by playing offensive gameplay but yeah so far, no trophy achieved by roma this season. It will be so good to see rossi bring another trophy for roma. It has some great strikers, like Lukaku, who require more than one player to protect him and it may able to pay more attention from leverkusen's defenders. Lukaku's ability to hold the ball for extended periods of time may benefit Roma in the penalty box.

I don't see any Leverkusen defenders who can go one on one with Lukaku in terms of physical strength. Leverkusen will struggle to beat Roma. People were constantly calling Leverkusen because it is still unbeatable at this point.
Roma will be the most difficult opponent for Leverkusen to overcome in order to maintain its winning streak. Roma is more valuable to me than Atlanta.
136  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: April 27, 2024, 12:18:37 PM
AC Milan is in talks with Julen Lopetegui to replace Stefano Pioli as head coach next season.
West Ham is also reportedly interested in Julen Lopetegui but Lopetegui is reported to prioritize AC Milan over West Ham or other European clubs, currently Julen Lopetegui is without a club so it is just a matter of time until there is an official announcement from AC Milan for their new head coach
https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1784164516810330143

Julen Lopetegui can be said to be ordinary in his coaching career because when he was at Real Madrid he was fired because of poor results, at Sevilla he was quite successful with a European league title but after that he only became a coach at a mediocre team like Wolves, so Julen Lopetegui may not be the right person for a club like AC Milan.

Yeah, I was reading this too. Acmilan appears to have realized that the club needed to end its relationship with Pioli because he was never improving significantly. The club keeps getting stuck in the same location. Meanwhile, its competitor Intermilan is gradually gaining ground by winning any trophies this season other than UCL.
I believe that seeing Intermilan win the trophy is a major setback for all Acmilan officials. This is why they decided to part ways with Pioli. He is no longer an important coaching figure for the club. Julen has received an offer from West Ham, but he is likely to move closer to Milan.

I believe he chose Milan because the club is significantly larger than West Ham. That could be why he's turning down West Ham's offer right now for acmilan caused by milan will help him to perform at UCL on his first season with acmilan. it's time for him to show. Acmilan is attempting to gamble again.
137  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: April 27, 2024, 11:24:12 AM

Replacing the old coach with a new one is gonna he the next trend probably till the end of season. Since there have been so many clubs were massively replacing their coaches.

It's starting with

Liverpool (confirmed)
Bayern (confirmed)
MU - Maybe
Acmilan (next)
Old lady/Juventus (next)



According from the latest report by romano if acmilan is now seriously trying to find a good replacement for pioli. I can imagine that if there will be so many teams whose gonna replace their coaches soon.

Lopetegui has confirmed that he is now in talks with acmilan's representative and i expect his deal to be completed in the next week.

We will be seeing so many big clubs to have their new coaches at the summer transfer seasons. This will also make club to buy a lot of new players as per the request from the new coach too.

The upcoming summer transfer season is gonna be the busiest transfer season. I strongly believe that juventus will follow this step as the management is not feeling good with the current coach.
138  Economy / Economics / Re: World price tag on every product. on: April 27, 2024, 10:02:30 AM
Good argument but there are a lot of flaws in your argument. Do you know that there price tags could have been different because not everyone can produce a particular product like rice? And as much as you and I and the rest here wanted to reduce hunger, this kind of setup will not help.

And I think every government is doing everything at their disposals to curb whatever issues they have in their own country. But we all know that there is no balance in power in this world and there are problems that inherent, hard to solved specially if it involves humanity, i.e world peace (now we have wars in the Middle East), hunger.
exactly,the price difference is there for a reason, its not because a government want to be different to each other its because the law of supply and demand at action.
whatever goods more common in your country than the other it will definitely have cheaper price since its more common that means the demand is having lower ratio to supply.
the world can't just set one price for all because the economy doesn't allow that, moreover we need also to delve into the difference of wages accross the world and how the currency strenght could affect the price of goods.
also, the cost of labor will definitely affect the price of goods in that country, for example, local shoes in south asian or southeast asian are definitely cheaper than local shoes in europe and so on.
doing the one price thing won't solve any problem instead it will make other problems appear.
139  Economy / Economics / Re: Harmful effect of robot to the world. on: April 27, 2024, 09:51:44 AM
it will affect the overall economy much less it will change then entire economy landscapes I believe but its just how technology is advancing, if you somehow don't want to use robot the other will, if someone don't want to develop robot for doing such tasks other will, there's simply no escape here, people should know that cheap labour eventually gets replaced thats why they need to learn skill, but the government can also give basic protection for the ordinary citizen such as taxing robot so that the government can subsidize food for the people.
I think thats wisest approach since just holding the advancement of technology will left the country backwards compared to the other.
though right now and maybe for this whole decade even though there's no robot with sufficient capability yet that could completely replace people, but workforce are already replaced slowly these days.
140  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are you restaking wBTC right now? on: April 27, 2024, 09:38:41 AM
The problem with staking wbtc or other form of btc and wrapped btc, the interest rate provided are very low. The interest on btc are also low in centralized exchanges. It's more risk to stake the coin and spend on fees than you actually gain form staking. If you have btc on centralized exchange lying around and have no plan to sell it at current prices, it's good to stake them. But if you are to really earn on the market, you could place a grid order which on long run has a better ROI even if the price difference are larger. Just make sure the grid limits exceeds your price expectations.
most of the people that staked their WBTC aren't really in for that APY offered but they just want to accumulate points for future airdrop, for example is bouncebit, you can restake your WBTC, they will give you point that gonna be used to convert for BB token in the future when TGE is held and the coin earned from airdrop through TGE usually amounts to massive return of investment, thats why people are willing to go certain extent to stake their millions of dollars in WBTC, just imagine you can get big share of the point distributed through airdrop because you're among the whales that staked your BTC.
it definitely good additional profit all the while you're waiting for BTC price to somehow increase in the future since halving has passed anyway.
but of course this also have the risk implied by many people above that its not always smooth sailing.
always be sure to calculate the risk before staking your WBTC at the end of the day.
