This is absolutely a threat but not a death threat, once you say something bad on a person and it looks like it is a serious statement that is can possibly be a threat.

There are also threats who can be treated as a joke to someone so be careful on what attitude we are going to perform in the internet. It can really affect someone's mental health so we should be mindful about the things that we are going to say to someone. Threats can cause fear and anxiety.

But we can't settle with that single line only, maybe he is trying to protect himself for someone that's why he threatened that person with that.

We have really no idea on what is really happening on that scenario.

I like fortnite and it's a good game with good graphics. Since we're talking about bets, it's kinda hard to bet on which player who'll win in the game. Bettings on battle royale isn't effective, even the best player have the possibility to die at start if he don't have good loots. The chances of winning is very low since there are many players each game and it's not easy to be confident on someone you'll a bet on.

That's the challenge, that's why it is called a battle royal game because you need to survive and become the number 1 among other players. Fornite is a good game and putting it in an Esports betting game is probably effective and good. This game is very balance and no matter how good you are, if you die, you die. It is about aiming and I know that there are people who already played this game and get addicted to it.

But in reality, I'm not a fan of this Fortnite but I tried playing this.

Honestly, I'm an FPS fan and I play CS:GO which is already in an Esports betting sites.

Fortnite has a lot of potential to become the same with CS:GO when it comes to Esports Olympic.

foregin investors getting off the usd, usa dont like this!


there is only one thing what can save the usa dollar its a war the usa last hope.

the war if its start it will start before the  covid second wave crisis.

War is never an answer to any problems here in our world.
There's no advantages that can happen when countries started a war, it will just cause a wide and huge damage to humanity, economy, and all aspects of life.

How come war is the USA's last hope towards saving US dollar? If war happens, all currencies will become useless and valueless. No matter how rich you are, you will just lose your money including your life if countries destroy each other for the sake of dominance.

Like a cold war, yes, possibly it will become more effective for both of the country to strengthen their technology and economy.

As we all know that this pandemic is temporary and will probably end soon.

There are people who already engaged in the use of cryptocurrency or they invest their money in crypto to secure their future and fight inflation. Also, people don't want to make physical payment and this digital currencies are really helpful and less hassle to utilize in many transactions.

This pandemic really changed a lot of things including the mentality of people towards the virus, towards the government and towards the reality of life. This crisis really
1345  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: SCAMMING AS AN OPTION/ADVICE TO SCAMMERS on: August 04, 2020, 02:33:33 PM
Scamming may seem more like an option for frustrated persons but the real question is;
*Is it the right option?
*Is it an option your proud of and morally justified?
*Do you feel secured as a scammer?


First of all, it is never the right option if they can't earn money effectively in a legal way. There are a lot of opportunities to gain a lot of money and earn profits, they just need patience, courage, and effort. Scammers don't need to do these kind of things where they will harm other people for the sake of their own benefits.

Absolutely no one should be proud if they are making money out of crimes.
That's really a shame for someone who is doing evil things, probably their conscience will haunt them till lifetime.

Scammers are never secured but if they do things in a professional way, then it is more likely that the money you've lost will never be retrieved.
1346  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What to do if you get scammed! on: August 04, 2020, 01:36:29 PM
If you got scammed easily I think you are not good or you are not better on the world of business and investment because this takes a lot of things and secured your self with your funds too. It's better to make a research what are the things we are trying to make an investment or deep dive in.

No, it is not like that, learning is a process.

After you make a mistake and got scammed, the effect of it will not instantly change you. You should really consider a lot of factor why did you made a mistake where you have no certainty about it.

World of business and investment is for everyone, all of us have an opportunity to make our money grow and it depends on us on how we will do it with our own strategy and effort.

Precisely! The only recourse we could do is to take it as a learning experience while at the same time, we must be more vigilant and try to warn others by spreading news about it. Finally, we have to move on no matter how awful that experience maybe. Smiley

Behind every mistakes, there is a lesson that will help you grow and become aware about those scams. Let's just help each other become informed about those scams that are circulating in the internet and warn other people about a circumstances like this. Bad experience are just temporary and can be replaced by a new set of positivities so learn how to accept mistakes and move on.

If you are into crypto, it would be okay to take some profits if you hit a personal target price. Risk vs Reward still remains true. Yet, even after an economic disaster, the better companies, better stocks and bitcoin WILL rebound.

We just need to keep that positive point of views towards our economy, we should not only think of those possibilities, economic crisis will soon end.

As an investor, I only keep my eye on the goal as I don't want those downfall in the economy to affect my crypto assets. Although I'm not sure about the fate of my investments, I still took the risk and wait for a good thing to happen. It really takes a lot of courage for us to grow our assets or money.

Just look for many opportunities to invest just to secure your future, even those lot, house for rent, gold, and etc. will help you as time passes by. 
1349  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If War breaks out between China and the US, can China hack Bitcoin? on: August 04, 2020, 09:18:31 AM
You did consider WW3 as a factor but not a threat, if ever two superpowers would go to war at each other then, data mining and bitcoin would be out of question because that war will ensure total mutual destruction and what happens when they both use their nuclear capabilities, the whole world will feel the impact and there will be electro magnetic pulse that will cause the disruption plus the fireball and the raditation after that,

If you think of those possibilities, WW3 is less likely to happen as many sectors will become really affected and become useless. Money will probably become nonsense as this war can make most of the people die. All currency will become valueless once US and China started to bomb each other's territory. This will probably bring a long-term destruction to humanity and to all industry.

full scale war will remove the worth of many things and that includes cryptocurrency, in my opinion China would do that to buy off allies that will help them, in a war of attrition I do not know who will when but let's hope that it will never ever happen.

Just don't be too anxious about that because World leaders are not that dumb enough to not prioritize the safety of its people. Governments right now are worrying about their economy above else, they are worrying about inflation, cryptocurrency adoption, and this pandemic. US are struggling right now, while China is really not that affected in this pandemic and they have a stable economy compared to other countries.

I'd rather spend my time visiting these threads so that I can improve my knowledge and become aware about those things that can harm my privacy.

Most of the newbies here are not that knowledgeable when it comes to this kind of situation, and this is really helpful for them and that's for sure.

These collections of post is a must read to gather information and become well-informed towards those scenarios and so they know what to do if their privacy becomes at risks. Scammers and hackers in this generation are really unpredictable and hard to capture so as soon as possible, if you don't want to become their victim, read what OP posted.

This is really helpful for those people who are wondering about the security of their account in this forum.
It is really not that easy to recover an account once its lost, you really need to undergo a lot of process which is very hassle.

Thank you for this @OcTradism, this could help a lot of users here.

One question. Is it much better to recover an account if the email that you used in your lost account is your personal email? Is it enough to prove your ownership?
1352  Other / Off-topic / Re: Trump is preparing to ban TikTok on: August 03, 2020, 05:46:27 AM
it is Trump's strategy to be trusted by the public that he is a type of nationalist person, on the pretext that tik-tok can steal user data so Trump is now banning China from trading and influencing US society from the influence of tiktok, of course this happens because there is trade war between America and China. but indeed Trump is a very nationalist person.

He is really defending its people's privacy and security. We all know that US and China do really have a lot of conflict especially in the economy.

China is all about domination, he is all about being a businesses-minded country, and they want to dominate even the market and economy. This simple banning of Tiktok app in the US can really help the economy of China somehow go down. US is a big country and there are a lot of tiktok users in their country so probably it will cause a huge impact in China.

This is a good approach of Trump to affect the economy of China, war is not only about using massive destruction, it is also the economy, a country should need to attack and prioritize.

Nothing is private this days ... privacy is dead  ...

Before you download the app they could put a note ...

If you are talking about privacy, it is really hard to protect it especially if you are not aware about the apps that you are using.

You should inspect and check the security of an app before downloading and using it with your own personal information and details.
1353  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Russia legalizing Bitcoin and cryptos but not allowed as payment method? on: August 03, 2020, 05:00:59 AM
Even if this news is true, I would expect further pressure on crypto later on. Russian gov is too tyrannical and corrupt to let such thing as crypto exist without choking it

Russian government only allows cryptocurrencies as a source of profit or mainly as a store of value, that's why they only allow trading than use it in many transactions.

As a payment method? No way. They will not use crytocurrency as a payment method because they know that it will really affect their economy and other businesses due to volatility of most of the coins. The authority allows the community to access cryptocurrency but it really have some limit and restrictions.

Very close with bitcoin become legal payment currency transaction in Russia, I think is near how people can use bitcoin and altcoin become payment currency there because after legal using as investment assets will have new way for Russia make bitcoin legal as payment way. Just waiting several month later we can see Russian is the first europe country legal using bitcoin and altcoin.

According to the source, Russian government do not allow bitcoin as a payment method so it is less likely to become adopted in that kind of activities. People will only use it as their assets in their investments but not making it as a tool for payment transactions. They are not even close to full bitcoin adoption as they are still unable to do other features of transactions using crypto. Hoping that Russian government allow its people to use cryptocurrency freely.
1354  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Newbies are free to choose the journey they will go on: August 02, 2020, 05:52:50 PM
~snip~
New members like creating posts like, how to make money from the forum, how to rank up, how to earn merits, they do not care about asking how to make quality and authentic posts, that is why it is not surprising that they could not able to rank up.
New members are always asking things like how to make money in this forum, how to raise rankings etc., it is a natural thing if I look at it from a beginner's perspective. We only need to provide feedback in the form of suggestions and advice to make him know what is more important and needed by this forum. Make quality posts, how to contribute well and more. The inability of beginners to rise in rank due to lack of education, lack of reading and learning the rules in this forum.

With that purpose, they will never succeed in this forum.
You shouldn't do something for the sake of money, that's useless.

You should do your duty as a member and you should not make money as your goal, but the opinions, facts and informative discussion should be your tool for success. Making a lot of quality and factual posts will make you a more reliable member where other users will notice you as a good member. In order to achieve your goals and attain a higher rank in this forum, you should make your thoughts as your motive.
1355  Economy / Economics / Re: In the pandemic economy, tech companies are raking it in on: August 02, 2020, 05:22:37 PM
These types of businesses are not those which would bow down to the circumstances brought forth by the pandemic. On the contrary, they have the edge over others. COVID-19 most probably brought more people online and more online hours from the majority.  

Because people have nothing to do with the rules and regulations, so we have no choice but to stay at home and use the social media all day and night.

That's why people are so into the use of online platforms 24/7  due to boredom and stress.

The pandemic made those companies earn more because everyone is at home and has nothing to do but to watch on YouTube, buy things on Amazon, and use Facebook to browse and communicate with other people.

Online businesses are really popular nowadays and we prefer to buy online using our debt cards and bank accounts to a much faster payment. Those businesses do really have a lot of customers because shopping outside isn't safe and it is hard to deal with the environment when there's still a risk of getting the virus from malls, markets, and other shops, so people prefer to spend their money online.

Social media really connects people, so with the use of Facebook, Messenger, Instagram, and etc., you can still be updated with someone.
1356  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Network fee is killing my small profit on: August 02, 2020, 03:10:13 PM
Transaction fees have always been the problem for small scale traders like us. Personally, I stopped due to this huge transaction fees. I realized that almost 50% of my profits were being used for transaction fees. The nature of transaction fees for smaller transactions is one disadvantage making it difficult for some people to adopt to crypto business transactions. 

This is really a hindrance to success if this fees are really high.

Some people are only earning small profits and they are having a hard time to save their money and these fees really make them lose their profits.

But we can't really have a third party if we are living in a state that allows cryptocurrency.

Always expect to have a transaction fees because that's where the government or the platform can benefit your crypto. That's the reason why some people who are earning small profits with crypto are making other businesses so that they can somehow have support for those transaction fees.
1357  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Congratulations to me on: August 01, 2020, 05:30:53 PM
My advice to newbies or beginners is to " think big and start small" without getting discouraged by reaction of people toward your objectives because "moving alone is the beauty of success" while competing with other bring about your downfall ".

This is what we need, "encouragement", you really deserved that achievement and as you are growing in this forum, don't stop helping other people also to achieve their goals.

Goodluck to your future errands @GeorgeJohn, just keep on doing what you're doing and never let anyone become a hindrance to your success.

Always remember to become true and honest with anyone and be a reliable user in this forum.
1358  Economy / Economics / Re: Philippines will drop as a Country, Economy on its worst! on: August 01, 2020, 01:19:30 PM
We have the worst Government in this time of Pandemic, It's not all about the President but the Government as a whole.

I agree with you, is not only the President who are irresponsible, but also those Secretaries of each departments especially in the health sector. Their plans are not that effective and realistic, they are blaming its people in the continuous increase of new cases but its citizens are going outside are dying due to famine and not on the Covid-19 virus.

With all due respect, how did you say that the PH economy is falling? PH economy, the same as in other countries, is slowly recovering now even bit by bit.

No, it is not the same like other country, we really have the worst economy during this pandemic. Our country has many debt in other world organizations and countries, the budget for its people are not that allocated properly because of corrupt politicians that's why people can't have the financial assistance that they should have.

Help ourself. We don't need to rely on the government. There are opportunities everywhere.

Don't rely on the government?
The reason why they are in their positions is because the people trusted them to do their duty and lessen the suffering of the everyone and make a better country.

But what can we do?
We have no choice but to seize those opportunities everywhere just to survive even if our life is at risk and those government officials are safe inside their houses.
1359  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Ignorance the cause of scam and hack. on: July 31, 2020, 08:37:57 AM
Ignorance kills the zeal of learning, making users and many newbies thinking ways of earning quick, ignorance is the source of failure, and sometimes resulting to being scammed, duped because earning quik is major priority agenda.

But newbies are the one who are responsible with their own learning.

They are the one who can determine which is the right and which is the wrong, they can learn how to determine between the fake and legit, it is on their own decision if they will maximize their ability to become aware about how scams and hacks occur.

Greediness is also factor of getting scam and having loss in crypto markets somehow related to ignorance.

All of us experiences greediness, but it takes a lot of time and it takes a patience for a person to remove greediness on his attitude.
There's no easy money here in this world and you should not be attracted or lured by these scammers especially in cryptocurrency.

Fake giveaway, ICO, Ponzi scheme these are not ignorance, the victims of such scams are greedy people.

These are the most commonly used strategies by the scammers to lure their victim. Making a title that uses "GIVEAWAYS", "FREE MONEY", and etc., are very suspicious and as much as possible, look for a proof if they are legit, but probably it is not, so report it immediately so other people will become also aware about the scams that you saw in some sites.

That leads me to the obvious conclusion that he was only here to use the forum as a place of employment, to make money, which is exactly what you've accused the forum of doing.  Bit hypocritical, wouldn't you say?  It's also wrong, since forum moderators don't ban members to make a profit for anyone--not themselves and not the forum in general.  Too bad your "friend" got burned with the accounts he bought, but them's the brakes.  No loss to the rest of us.

Moderators are just doing what they should do to prevent the increasing number of users who are only posting for the sake of money.

Most of the users are not prioritizing the real purpose of this forum where we should focus on making quality and informative posts or replies and make good discussions.

This should serve as a lesson to anyone who are making shitposts just to earn money with their nonsense replies.

Your friend already has 50 posts he should already know how members are behaving or how members are posting but based on what I've seen on your friends post, all the posts are either bounty posts or spam,after 50 posts he finally realized that this forum has a rule about spamming, your friend did not even read one rule of this forum, he deserves to be ban.

In that 50 posts, he didn't even realize that spamming is prohibited maybe it's too late for him to change the way he posts. It is your friend's loss especially that he even spent his money for an account that wasn't properly managed.
