1201  Economy / Economics / Re: The poor people with their reasoning on: December 26, 2022, 10:05:10 AM
Generally, poor people find it difficult to invest money on anything, they are too obsessed with how much they have presently, when you advice them to invest they will ask when they will reap what they sow and knowing that it's years down the road they will feel somehow.

It's true that this depends on human nature too because I started as a poor fellow before investing, I just get used to invest all along and it favors me, in the end, one has to be willing to lose it all before gaining a lot back and many poor people don't like this.

If we look deeply into this you will find out that poor people are raised in such a way, investment was never part of their game from father and grand fathers down the line, this is why I believe that been poor sometimes can be an error in the lineage thing. It
It's not that they are greedy but let's not forget that they are poor so they will still pull out the money that they invest later on. For them it's kinda useless to invest in long term and then the return isn't really that great. This is why most of them got scammed because they mostly fail on those get-rich-quick schemes.

I wouldn't really blame for this without knowing their true story. You are right. For someone who is poor, what important for them is the present and not the future. They are happy on what they currently see in their paychecks but they will feel sad if some of this money are going to be allocated else where becasue they also need it right away for a more important use.

It looks like Barcelona must bury its desire to bring Messi back to La Liga, Liputan6.com reports that Messi has reached an agreement with PSG for a contract extension, this agreement will make Messi stay at PSG until 2024.
The news that Messi wants to stay at PSG has disappointed Messi fans in Barcelona. They really want to see Messi return to playing for Barcelona after successfully bringing Argentina to win the World Cup.
if Barca can't afford to pay Messi as well as PSG, I think it's a good decision for Messi to stay at PSG. after all, it would be enough to drain Barca's finances to return Messi to Barca. who might be more considered to get young players or buy defenders who are now Barca's weakness. after all, Barca already has Lewandowski up front.
It's not all about afford now Xavi is doing right job and playing with few players which can give them good success for long time and having Messi in this unit can create mess-up like we have in Manchester United with the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo even many are feeling these both are completely different players, but we have to accept reality and Messi is also not 35+ and he can't be first choice at Barcelona with now things are going good in PSG because after arrival of Messi they have fair chance to win the Champions League and their performance is also at his best with having two world's most valuable players like Messi and Mbappé due even recently we have few rumours about Mbappé as well but most chances things could be clear and these both will be able to perform at their best for this club as well.

After the long break from the World Cup, the main aim of the teams will be to perform well in their respective leagues. As Barcelona now want to win both the La Liga and Europa League titles, it will be very difficult for them. Barcelona's main goal now will be to maintain consistency in La Liga. And if the Barcelona players can maintain their dominance in La Liga then they will try to win the European title. However, the match between United and Barcelona will be very competitive.
Now this break and coming transfer window is going to be vital for many teams and their performance into domestic leagues and European Competitions because as we are having updates many players are going to leave their respective teams which is surely going to have big impact on their performance and results in coming weeks.

Barcelona vs Manchester United is surely going to be a big match as right now Barcelona is having top rank in La Liga and Manchester United is badly struggling in Premier League with waiting for too many changes into their squad, hopefully things could be positive for them, and they will be able to have their best days back after many years of poor performance in all competitions.
1204  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Bitcoin Die or Pump Up in 2023? on: December 23, 2022, 08:11:32 PM
Elon Musk is not a bitcoin predictor in the future I will not be affected by his tweets because we hold bitcoin on our own basis and also research that is carried out by us so believe in the future the 4 year bitcoin cycle will happen again but this is not necessary at all Elon Musk is called a manipulation.

Bitcoin is not going to die I believe it will grow again but I will not stop to keep hoarding as much bitcoin as possible so that after the 2024 halving we can meet the expectations for the bullrun to come but believe that the cycle will still be in force later.

2023 will not be a big event for bitcoin we will still see bitcoin in recovery accompanied by a long bearish run so I believe in the coming year we will still be bitcoin HODLers.
Actually, none of us can predict the price of BTC not even the founder himself. He can't stop BTC anymore if ever he has a plan because it was already deployed and many of us holder won't want that to happen because BTC already did a lot of things to us. We will support it or save it if it's in a critical condition.

If you check on the image posted by the OP. Elon is positive about his tweet. He didn't said that BTC will die, which is a good thing. This encourages BTC supporters and this might help the price to rise as early as the expected dates. If you have a big dream then yes you must not quit buying and hodling BTC, because there is still more to come from this coin.
1205  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will you buy more ETH after reading this ? on: December 23, 2022, 05:45:03 PM
I have to say ETH has not changed as much as I would like it to change, I know that OP made it clear that if you invested long time ago then you would have made a good amount of profit, specially considering the top price you could have sold a year ago, but the reality is that we have seen a lot of coins that went up a lot more during the same period.

The only downside it has is the fact that most of the money went to miners, and not enough went to traders. It is second ranked so we all know how big it is, but how did it grow so much while still being outpaced by other coins that went up even more in percentage? That is mainly the miners issue, and glad we are at staking stage now because of it.
To what coins you are referring to that pumped a lot in terms of percentage? Shitcoins and meme coins? I think that's because they are lighter or newer than ETH but the risk on them is also huge. Those who earn big are lucky while the rest that pick up a wrong coin are also losing big time.

The fees in ETH last time are so expensive but I think most that are affected are the people who actively trade erc20 based coins or tokens while if you are only a hodler and have only sold one time in the bull run then the fees are not really a big deal since your earning are also good enough. Maybe that is also the reason on why ETH have move to proof of stake.

Your best way is to keep contacting them by email or try to contact Stunna via this forum by PM.

I have sent multiple emails to the CEO at office@mebit.io and to the operator at hello@easygo.io

And I asked in this thread if these email addresses are reachable and no answer!
I think trying to go directly at CEO to get a response for the problems that you faced is not a reasonable expectation at all. You could write here, or you could talk with the support like everyone else and either your problem will be solved or it may not be solved I can't guarantee anything, but I am pretty sure that is the only way, the support.

If you try to contact the support and find a way to fix things then it is obvious that we are not going to end up with anything reasonable by expecting CEO to solve it all by himself.
1207  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: People who holds 1+ Bitcoin, how does it feel to hold in bear market? on: December 22, 2022, 11:58:30 PM

As for my advice, I would say "Try to do some research on Bitcoin's past and see what it has achieved. If you dive deep, you will see it's potential and would never sell until the right time"
I believe anyone involved in the market has researched this, certainly everyone knows the history of bitcoin. Your advice, I am not saying they are useless but those things they can easily find on the internet. They know everything, but in my opinion, what a newbie needs most experiences, which no one can share and give advice. I was also a newbie and there is no better advice than to experience it myself. I want all newbies to experience this bear season, and they will learn their own lessons.
Keep in mind that there are newbies who only got involved recently. We know their characteristics. They are too excited to try stuffs and they forget to make a research first. And I believe that most of us entered here because of those hyped NFT's and play to earn games. It's only sad that those types of projects are heavily promoted the most and not the old coins but it's fine.

There are still a chance for those people to find out the old cryptos later on or by the time they fail. Advices given by the op might be too basic for you and you think this can be found elsewhere but keep in mind that not all, are productive enough but many are still lazy so threads like this are still helpful for them.
1208  Economy / Economics / Re: What was the dumbest thing FTX spent money on… on: December 22, 2022, 11:45:47 PM
Another issue that I am confused is whether, was he actually a good trader or not?

I would see photos of him, sitting on his gaming chair, with 6 monitors in front of him, with a deodorant stick on his desk. Behind him being a bean bag which was his bed. I assumed he was the best scalper/day trader out there.

Then I learnt that all he did was mostly arbitrage. Buying Bitcoin in USA and selling for 10 profit in Japan. Rinse and repeat. Then all he did was market making. When he was actually trading he seemed no different than all those Bybit apes who go 100x on many coins and get rekt, only difference was that his trades had no liquidation price.
That deodorant stick got me Cheesy but was it really a deodorant stick? Hmm.. Huh Anyways, that is what his background story tells, that he is a pro arb trader but does he really? I mean why did he got bankrupt then? Maybe he got greedy and used all the clients' funds but some of his trades didn't go well, resulting for him to get rekt. IDK if it's true that he is planning to venture the fashion industry but that seems hilarious. You are right, it wasn't his field but his expertise is only at crypto or trading.

Maybe that was also the reason on why his primary company got bankrupt. Another thing where SBF spends his money is through donations from a government. I think this can be considered as a dumb move because governments are already rich, more if they are corrupt.
1209  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: trading model that i created to accumulate more bitcoin (swing trading) on: December 21, 2022, 12:11:21 PM
I've seen a lot of comments about finding signal groups and the like. Well i have something that actually works but isn't a pump and dump get rich quick scheme by some influencer. I'm using these for swing trading to accumulate more bitcoin for myself, but it should work for alts, crypto stocks, even possibly the stock market if the correlation continues to be strong.
Likely it might work for alts, but we should not forget that many alts are shit coins and can change the possibility of making profit while trading. While talking about alts, the alt should be well studied before it is used for trading. There are some good alts for trading too, alts like ether, litecoin, qtum, neo, dgb and many others with a good marketcap and following the bull trends with bitcoin, unlike some altcoins that are just shit coins.
A signal group can work too as long as they are legit and not a scam. They are helpful for someone who still lacks of experience or knowledge on how to trade a crypto. There are so many cryptos that can be used for trading not just btc. There's also alts, tokens and shitcoins.

I know shitcoins are mostly risky if we are about to hodl them for a long time but I think they can still work fine in trading purposes. Binance is a good platform for trading but I think binance has some country restrictions. There are also features whom may not be available for them but are available on other trading exchanges. We need to choose what suits us the most.
1210  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: December 21, 2022, 08:34:41 AM
Women cricket should be given equal importance as that of the men's cricket. This isn't happening in reality, very few boards have done it in the right way. Most of the Asian cricket boards, particularly Indian board is much focused on money. Now the prime focus is to make money and if the women's IPL turns to be a success, the women cricketing will get importance. If not, they're supposed to be the same as now.
I also agree with that its should be equal importance to both gender as same in cricket. But in reality it doesn't happen except few countries are exceptions. Women's cricket is not given much importance because its viewers are less and hence the possibility of loss is more for more invest in it, so women's cricket is given less importance for this.  Moreover, if we see that most of the girls are less interested in cricket or this type of sports.But time changed now womens are also showing interest in games and the situation is slowly improving.
In many countries of Asia and Africa it has never been easy to allow women's to play like men's on streets even on grounds because we have not developed mindset which must for this all even in developed world not happening because these things have many negative aspects as well, so mostly women's can do these sports under roof or indoor system which helping them for improving their skills and technique but in this region it has never been easy as many members mention in above posts life is never been easy in this region with religion and area issues hurting badly.

Even now developments happening but still very long way to go for having positive results and better things for this all because right now we have best sporting culture in the USA, and they are also not having results like men's sports which is dilemma for them but if we will be able to have few things hopefully these will open the doors like WIPL is also coming in India.
1211  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: December 21, 2022, 01:00:33 AM
Netherlands has been playing cricket for a long time but there is no improvement in their game. There are various reasons behind this. Notable among them is that the residents do not take cricket very seriously. As a result there is no interest among newcomers. If new cricketers are not created then it is not possible to expect improvement in cricket. It is not possible to select good cricketers where there are no cricketers. If the attraction of cricket among the local people can be increased then it is possible to improve their cricket. But another thing is to note that if they can't do anything in cricket, they are trying to do better, which can be considered as a positive aspect.
Netherlands and cricket is having very long relationship, but sadly they have never been good team due to lack of interest and having better infrastructure into the Netherlands but now with the introduction of t20 we can expect good changes which will bring better finances and results as well for the local players with mostly they have native players those are involved in different domestic leagues it's good for them to have better results in near future right now they are having 17th rank in ODI and 15th in T20i which mean we can expect good changes and better quality and performance which will encourage next generation which will have better results as well right now mostly are involved in Soccer and Field Hockey.
1212  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: December 20, 2022, 08:03:51 PM
I am shocking with Karim Benzema decision retired from France national team after World Cup, he retired at 35 years old and try keep focus with Real Madrid until ended his football career. I think one years later have EURO 2024, Karim Benzema has potential make last appearance with France national team depend has consistency performance with Real Madrid.

Retired still possibility returning back with several player announced have retired from their national team, but few months later with new manager change they try to comeback for national team, I hope Karim Benzema can close his football career at national team with trophy and EURO 2024 become great opportunity.
He might be thinking of giving up his position for someone better and younger than him, that's normal for Benzema. However, of course he can still play at a good level as a French striker than Giroud in my opinion. Should Benzema really want to return, he might return as Messi has done before.

I'm looking forward to seeing what happens next, but it's clear Benzema is pretty devastated based on what he wrote on Twitter recently.
For me this is the best decision and on right time because he is already 35, and now we have Euro2024 which mean he could be 37 and with his injuries most chances he can't give his best, so now he has good time for staying at Real Madrid for one or two more seasons and then announces his retirement from all type games because as he is having injuries it has never been ideal situation to stuck a place which can filled by a better player for the long run.

Now this is crucial time for him at Real Madrid as well because they need good results and his strong presence for the better performance in coming matches and his injuries are not allowing to do things like these easily hopefully in coming weeks things could be improved, and he will be able to give his best at Real Madrid.
1213  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Should I be worried? on: December 20, 2022, 11:32:34 AM
Artificial Intelligence is something that may never work out because it's dangerous, if some one like Elon Musk could confirm this then it's something humans should stop dreaming of, Metaverse is not like A.I so yes it can easily work out compare to A.I because it's a lot safer.
Why not? We already have different AIs and many of them are useful for the humans as it can help us do some things consistently. I think those who think negatively are just paranoid and have watch too match of those AIs in the movies that kill people, something like the terminator.

Those that we see in the movies are mostly fictional and can't possibly occur in real life so you guys shouldn't worry a lot. Instead why can't you just think about the positive things that they can bring to us? Metaverse is like a virtual reality so yeah it is not the same as the AI but there are still dangers on them because sometimes it requires you to wear a head gear and you won't see what is happening in the real world.

Let's see what Juventus will do on one hand. We are mostly talking about Arsenal, Manchester United and Barcelona. Because they are obviously the biggest favourites of the Europa League title. One of them is already about to be eliminated though but still. Juventus are one of the teams that shouldn't be underestimated here. I can agree that they weren't impressive in the Champions League at all. They showed very poor performances in big matches and they even had difficulties against Maccabi Haifa.

But I still want to believe they have a potential here. Because after being eliminated from the Champions League, they started to get positive results many weeks in a row. Their Serie A performance has been fascinating in the recent times. If they get rid of this crisis quickly I think they could be one of the serious candidates for the Europa League title.
Right now, Juventus situation is not good and clear for the title race here in UEFA Europa Cup because they are improving in their Italian League and still needs more improvement and better performance for the stay into top ranks with many other teams are also determined for having better results even their first game is against Nantes, and they can win this easily, but after these things are not easy with many teams are having better quality and performance with Juventus which is clearly just touching better results will not take any risk for having bad results into Serie A even they can go until quarterfinal because after this surely games could be more tough and challenges could be also not easy for them to stay here for title race.
1215  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: December 19, 2022, 10:21:39 PM
Roma team are the team that needs most improvements  among the top teams their recent performance is really poor they didn't win in the last three serie A games and in the friendlies they can't even beat weaker opponents they need some new players in all positions but especially in the defence and midfield.
Roma performance this season is becoming worse, no sign of improvement.  Roma was never like this last season they were among the tough teams in the italian league , but this season Roma is becoming one of the weak teams in the league. Their defence is poor , it needs to be improve .
Before start of this season mostly were feeling AS Roma could be title contender in this season, but sadly they are badly failed and now fighting hard for having spot into top six which is looking not easy because their performance is not good enough in last five games they have just five points which are not near the best for having spot into top six teams in Serie A.

If they are not able to improve their performance after this break into near year then surely they are going to be had no chance for European competitions in next season Roma surely have few good players, but Mou strategy is not working for them after winning last year's UEFA Europa Cup they need more firepower in their attack if they want to win against big teams.

The fact that we are in the crypto market makes it more difficult for us to understand whom to believe and whom not believe. The market is huge and it’s bumpy ride all the way. It’s up to us how to make money out of it. We can either keep talking the obstacles, difficulties and volatility or we just straight away jump into it and keep buying more coins. I mean we only loose when we sell the coins which is the oldest saying here and from the fellow members. I would always like to believe them and kee holding until I get best profits out of it.
If you are a newbie in here, then that will be the case that can happen to you. You will get confused and you will end up believing on the wrong people but for someone who is not new in here, they can easily do a research and confirm the rumours that they see if it was only a lie/fud or it was a real thing already. They can then base their actions according to it.

Anyone that is involved here and stay in the game, are going to face the obstacles and difficulties. There is no shortcut in here. The last thing that you said will only depend on the coin that we hold. What if you hold a shitcoin? The best thing to do with a shitcoin is to sell them immediately.

This again shows that Pakistan is weak in their batting side not only in ODI and T20 format but also in Test format.  And here the dependence on Babar Azam is also noticeable. But it is true that  Shakil was also good in todays series. But currently England need only 55 run to win and I think it will be pretty  for them cause they have more 8 wicket in hands.
Pakistan are almost out of the WTC race thanks to this loss and they are performing like crap in the test format, but this doesn't imply that their performance is bad in the ODI and T-20 formats too.

They reached the final in the recent T-20 World Cup and they defeated teams like Australia, West Indies etc in recent ODI tournaments which proves my point.
Pakistan domestic set up is completely joke as few months back we have few changes which were going to help them for having better results, but now change of government mean they are again having change in their set-up as well which is indicating how strong political influence is working in this system which is not allowing them to have better strategy and development for improvement of the game and performance with the lost of this series now WTC final is already ended even now they will be ended at the spot of 6 or 5.

White ball is completely different format where you can adjust quickly, and you have few options but here in red ball you have to go with better technique and skills which must but after this series I have feeling their domestic set up is surely crap, and they need long time for having better results in this red ball format.
1218  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Here is my analysis about btc on: December 19, 2022, 05:35:34 PM
we are starting the month when there is more demand for everything, shopping and everything, it may be that we will hear negative news and yes, Bitcoin may continue to fall, but this may be momentary, because throughout December people are spending, the people get into buying and this could make bitcoin go up a bit, just for the season, that possibility fits and there is another positive thing, the fact that we are in the middle of the world cup, that makes a lot of money move and at great levels and one of the Maeras is with casinos, with sports betting that has a lot to do with crypto and bitcoin, so there are two very positive factors.
I think this December we have here is different from the ones that we have in the past because there's a lot of negative things that occurred this year, whether in the crypto world or in the real world and that have affected the people financially so they might be budgeting now rather than shopping recklessly in preparation for the main event which was Christmas and New-Year.

I don't know if the World Cup have done some contributions in Bitcoin's value because its price seems to be at the same level and it did even fall some. Maybe it did contributed on other cryptos because there are so many cryptos that can be used to place a bet online.

This player is not going to make a difference to the competition of the current season. It could be a long-term player. Real Madrid already has a very strong team in the league. Vinicius has also become very good in recent years. And he's not that old at all. Only Atletico Madrid managed to break through the monopoly with a title in the La Liga 3 seasons ago. And I don't know how long Xavi can stay at Barcelona, he will have to win prizes one day. He has received quite a lot of praise with his way of playing, but as a board you want to win prizes. That is ultimately the only thing that matters and what you will be judged on.
We have too much speculation about Real Madrid future after Karim Benzema injury even we all know they are capable of having better results from their current squad without any issue because they have enough quality players those can give their best for achieving good results but still media is talking about much about few things which are not discussed able with Barcelona is currently leaders in La Liga with just two points difference, and we can expect changes in league table because Real Madrid can fight back with now again we have only two teams fight for the title Atlético Madrid is struggling badly, and they are not strong enough for having better results, but Real Madrid is surely not easy team specially as right now they are defending their two titles.
1220  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: We No Longer Pay People Directly on: December 16, 2022, 08:19:43 PM
The less we use cash, the more we pay people through a corporation. The last remaining use of cash and direct payments is Tipping.
Everything else we must pay through a corporation. We cannot pay another human unless there is a corporation involved. As cash disappears this becomes a final fact -- a corporation involved in every financial transaction you pursue. In each transaction, the corporation is taking their percentage but also controls and monitors your transaction.
I am pretty sure that mobile payments will become even bigger than everything else. We may not be aware of it right now, but almost all banks either have it or working on it where you as the vendor will show a QR code, and the payer will open up their bank app and just read the qr code and confirm the payment and that's it.

No more of this old card stuff, just our mobile phones will be enough. This already started and will be huge. During this period crypto will become huge as well because we will be able to pay with crytpo apps instead of bank apps and just pay the vendor. That future is great, I want to be in that future and it looks to be great.
