Stable coins aren't investments, I think it's better to say that use stable coins during the bull run so that you'll keep your profit. Investing on it means that you're going to treat it as an actual investment even it's not.
Its value isn't moving so there's no sense if someone says that a person should invest in stable coins. That's just a little correction and you're right that it's like putting your money in the bank.
People who think that they should "invest" into stablecoins, do not understand the whole point of stablecoins. USDT type of stuff are there so that you could turn your crypto into fiat, without actually going into fiat. Back in the day people had to use companies and exchanges that work with fiat, and places like Binance, or cryptsy, or poloniex or bittrex etc etc did not have that fiat option.

So, you would use local exchanges. What you did was put your money from your bank account to your local exchange, turn it into some altcoin that would be cheap to send, send it to poloniex, trade there however you want and when you want to go back to fiat, you had to repeat that in reverse. Stablecoins prevented that and you can now go to stablecoins directly. That's all they are good for, nothing else.

The competition for the top 3 teams in Serie A is indeed very interesting, because the point difference between the three teams is close to each other, so every match becomes very important. Which team can play consistently until the end of the season, the team really deserves to be the winner of the Serie A trophy. Actually for now Napoli are the most profitable, after being eliminated by Barcelona in the Europa League, Napoli can focus on Serie A. Even though Napoli are in third position, but if they can finish the remaining 10 matches well, Napoli should have a very big chance of winning the Serie A trophy.
The top three right now looks like they are going to have a hard time deciding who will win the league at this point. However, let's remember that there are 10 more games left, which means that there are 30 more points to distribute and Juventus is not that much behind neither. Which means that third spot is not that much guaranteed for the team that loses points neither.

Juventus would probably not win the league I will agree to that, but in order to be third and not first, one of those three teams will have to lose points, and if Juventus picks up those points then there is a chance they could get closer to third spot as well. Unless they end up losing a lot of points themselves as well.

People had become more aggressive when there are new projects, especially if that is very popular. Like NFT, Metaverse had also its way to gain attention but scammers are taking advantage of this, they create scam projects that ruin everything.

Now, it is the wisest thing to do is not to invest in them if we are not sure about the project, in fact, there are a lot of potential coins in the market where we know it can really be trusted and profitable. We don't need to waste our time with them.
I would say "not investing" is not the right approach. Due diligence is a better way to approach it. If you end up completely zoning out of it and not looking at it, you are not going to lose money but you won't make any profit neither. However, if you end up searching for the good ones, and do your due diligence properly then you are going to end up with a proper profit, and that is what matters.

I personally think that the greatest thing a crypto company could do right now (NFT project or meta or whatever) would be giving all the data you may request. If they did all of it and you can find every single detail on the project, then you could actually find something that will go up.
1384  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What coin you like trading future on: March 07, 2022, 09:00:25 PM
Apart from bitcoin and ethereum which is the best choice for future and also all the time in trading and investing.
you can also see BNB coin whose vision is to match the price of ethereum, binance coin (BNB) is a crypto asset issued by the Binance Exchange, BNB is also being hunted by traders because it has a good level of liquidity. And this is the reason why Binance coin is widely chosen by traders as a good liquidity coin for trading in various crypto markets which in my opinion have a more promising future.
Those three are really the kings of crypto world right now in my brain as well. They may not always be looking the most hyped at times, like there was a time when doge was hyped like crazy while others did not, but that three are the ones that will continue to be hyped the long term for sure. I saw doge as much as top 5 at some point, now it is out of top 10, and will continue to be out of top 10 for the longest time as well.

You may believe it or not, but I guarantee you, it will not be any other trio for the longest time. It would require a project to be so big to take over those three for long term and I mean like be in the top three for over 1 year, not just for a while. ADA got over BNB for a while, look where it is right now, at 8th place.
1385  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Top 5 NFT Games You Should Be Looking Forward To on: March 07, 2022, 07:44:22 PM
With hundreds of NFT games dominating the gaming community nowadays, it is hard not to look for those who stand at the top. There are many games out there, but only a few of them poses a bright future to make it out alive against the challenges and demands of the current time and the future. Let’s identify the top 5 NFT games today!

~snip~
I would disagree with this list but I do not have 5 that I could list. Like Axie is definitely a great one, but then I would say Floki Valhalla is another upcoming that looks like has a great potential as well, gods unchained is up there and not on your list, defi kingdoms has been there for a while. That list has none of those, maybe a list done to shill something, but it is lacking a lot and I would definitely try to avoid that as much as I can.

Doesn't mean you should be making a good return, it just means that we should not be avoiding the real good games with high potential that people already putting so much volume and ignore them from our lists.

We are in the final week ok the F1 test and most of the cars will uncover secrets this week.

The test will be in Bahrain, where the 1st race of the season will take place.
8 hours per day since Thursday.

Also, is it rumored about (already) an irregular car, in this case, Redbull.
Testing is never really the real results of the teams. Last year Mercedes had one of the worst testing results of any team and they still ended up winning the season, maybe lost in the drivers but won the team cup and that should show us that testing is never really the important aspect. We need to wait for Bahrain, and that is usually a great race to show the power of the engine as well. Sure there are some good turns there as well but the straight race power is a lot more important on that one.

And I believe that we are going to see Mercedes do awesome there again, engine did not changed much, just the speed while being close to each other changed big time, rest should be a little less difference. So, I am guessing Mercedes will have a field trip during Bahrain and if that is actually the case, we are going to see them dominate the season again.
1387  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Conditions of bounty campaigns these days on: March 07, 2022, 05:38:42 PM
I believe that it is more like the same situation. We have had bounties back in the years that didn't pay after the campaign was completed and now we still have some Bounty campaigns that still don't pay after work is done.  Asking for KYC is now the biggest scam in the bounty campaign space that was not specified before the campaign because they know most will not participate in that campaign not because the hunters want to scam you but because they don't want to give their info which the projects is now forcing them to do to get their pay.
I guess the matter is subjective because some people pick and choose the campaign we participate in.   
One of the main reasons why they are asking KYC these days is the fact that there are more than one account per person and they are worried that the same person will get multiple entry just because of it. If you do not want to do KYC for a project then you should not enter at the start, and even if they didn't say it, assume that they will ask for it.

The main reason stands, it is a good reason, if I open 10 twitter accounts and 10 bitcointalk accounts and whatever else is needed, should I be joining with 10 accounts? I should not, and KYC is there to prevent that. Not a good thing for most participants who do not want to share it, but a good defensive mechanism for the campaign.

I think experience trader must be hold. Actually buy or sell all depends on you,whatever you want. I think anytime you can buy and sell. But when price will be drop then you don’t need be panic because bitcoin price will be increase in futire. Bitcoin is a most valuable coin in crypto market.I hope bitcoin price will be recover soon.
I don't think that your experience got anything do about what you are going to do with your bitcoins. Because, even you are not experienced, you will be preferring to hold bitcoin when you are believing into the future of bitcoin. Obviously you are free to do anything to do with your bitcoins; it can be buying or selling or holding but active traders do buy when bitcoin market seems bullish and they may sell when market turns bearish but true believers of bitcoin will keep buying and holding they never bother about the trend of bitcoin market.

You may ask, what is the point of holding without encashing. The answer is, it is like trying to maximize the benefits we could enjoy out of bitcoin investment. It does not mean that you should not sell your bitcoins at emergency situations but just for the reason of buying pizza, do not sell your bitcoins or just for the reason of bitcoin reached $100k, do not sell your bitcoins.
1389  Economy / Speculation / Re: What is your expectation on: March 07, 2022, 11:28:09 AM
We have heard all the news about countries deciding to make bitcoin as legal, the latest being Russia and Ukraine as they both are also in some political problem. Obviously with this new statement that has been made on bitcoin status in those countries, it could be regulated by the government.
What is your expectation of bitcoin ?
I was expecting something big changes to happen in bitcoin market since last 10 days but nothing happened anything like that which mean the political tension between Russia and Ukraine is not significantly impacting bitcoin market anymore. At the same time, if they are making bitcoin legal in their countries then stories will be completely different but I wish war cannot be a reason for bitcoin to get into bullish mode, basically.

I am not having any changes in my view on bitcoin market since the times of last ATH occurrence. I mean there are still plenty of chances for bitcoin to get into $100k levels by mid of this year. Pandemic crisis are settling down and we may see peace talk progress from Russia hence expectation of $100 is still alive with me.
1390  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: March 06, 2022, 09:21:45 PM
Man United will compete with Real Madrid if they want Rudiger. Considering the big name of Real Madrid, I assume Man United will be difficult to sign Rudiger. No problem if Man United wants to try signing him but I doubt they will be successful. Anyway, Maguire is Man United captain, how can Rudiger replace him? About Phil Jones and Eric Bailly, they are the players who spend their time on the bench. Rudiger will never consider joining Man United if he will be the replacement of those players.
I believe that it is a bit about Rudiger wanting more money and United could afford to pay him a bit more. Real definitely needs good defenders as well so I would assume that they could pay up too. I do not know which one he will end up going, but both teams will pay a good fee to get him.

However, the Maguire thing is a bit different, he is the captain of the team but the captain title could be given to anyone, it is as easy as just saying you are off the team and that's it. He has been lackluster for the past 2 seasons if you ask me, sure he is a great passer, but his pace dropped significantly and he is having hard time catching defenders. Which is why I believe he may not be captain next season and United could be looking for another defender that can replace him.
1391  Economy / Economics / Re: Who will Replace Russian Gas Supplies to Europe? on: March 06, 2022, 08:32:26 PM
You do know that you could have excess energy, right? I mean let’s assume you need 100, you could build systems for 200 if you want, or 500. Sure it would cost a lot and it will take years, probably decades but that is where we will end up with. Snow also helps the solar panels as well; it allows to attract a bit more sun when it hits. All in all there are plenty of possibilities, wind turbines when wind is there, solar panels when sun is out, hydro when you have running water, all of these could be used at any moment 12 months all around. It is not easy, of course it’s not, there is no one disputing that. But, we are talking about the future not today.

Obviously, nobody could do it today, this is something that will take one or two decades. But "eventually" it will happen. Even if not for anything else, it will happen for preventing climate change (which we are already too late for).
This is true, it will "eventually" reach there for sure. However, what will Europe do meanwhile? I mean without any Russian help, let's assume you turn Russia into Iran and from now on there won't be any European nation or even a single business working with Russia, that means it is going to be difficult for Europe to find that energy for the time being.

It is not about what will happen "eventually", that is understandable and a good future plan, but we are talking about what to do until that moment. I believe that they could still get some through some other nations, and they could increase the amount they are spending to get some more energy methods, like they just gave 500 million euro to Ukraine as help, spend that on wind turbines and you could probably buy like 550 of them wholesale, or even got it made and get like 700 or so. That would be enough to cover so much of the difference. So they need to make it quicker and closer.
1392  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: March 06, 2022, 07:06:02 PM
Nice did well to win the three points. PSG didn't need to take any chances in this match because they will soon be playing Real Madrid. It's okay that they lost today. They need to concentrate on winning in Madrid. Winning the last match is no guarantee of going ahead.
Well PSG wanted to win this match,they went with the best team they had currently on paper. But again PSG losing in ligue 1 and im not surprised. I mentioned in this thread earlier today that i wouldnt be surprised if Nice wins. Nice needed this win badly to keep that second place and this win for them is huge
this lost match for PSG shows how they lack motivation in ligue 1 compared to other competitions like CL, this team beats Real Madrid who are doing amazing in La Liga and dominate the match, after that with few days plays and loses against Nice, I am not saying they're a bad team but we all know Real Madrid are better, winning the ligue 1 this early definitely makes it boring for them and spectators.
I would assume that Messi just didn't like ligue 1 at all and doesn't understand how the defenses work here. I mean he is used to playing against teams like Real Madrid or City because he faced them, and in France if he was playing against PSG that would be even easier for him, all those teams and players he faced against when he was in Barcelona are still fine for him, but the general approach to the game by the French teams is not something he is very well aware.

He also shown everyone that this is more like retirement for him, sure PSG is still a great team but he just doesn't have that same fire in him as he did back in the day. Mbappe didn't even play, but he just wants to leave as well which makes the team a bit more boring as well. All in all I have to say that basically the team is lacking motivation for sure, it is so obvious.
1393  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and international conflict on: March 06, 2022, 04:19:24 PM
The fact is that whether there is a conflict or not, FUD about Bitcoin will be always exsited. And sometimes it is aimed to make the price of Bitcoin drop enough, using Bitcoin and accusing it as a manner for criminals, and many others that will create negative thoughts of Bitcoin nd the dropped price of BTC itself.
That’s a good point. Even if there was no conflict, the price of Bitcoin was going to drop. It’s normal and it happens every time, so I don’t think it has anything to do with the conflict as of recent. The thing is that whenever this happens, there usually used to be an event that takes place and people will try to tag the drop in the value of Bitcoin to the events that has taken place.

But, the truth is that whether these happens or not, the price will keep fluctuating up and down. And we know that after everything that the value of Bitcoin is still going to increase later on as it has been doing over the years now, so it's definitely a better choice for a long term.
1394  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin likely won't recover until 2025 on: March 05, 2022, 09:44:39 PM
they can predict whatever they wanted but the truth is? market like this is unpredictable and things may change in speed of light .

we have seen those many times before so why not will happen soon?

The thing is we must be ready always in something bad to happen , but of course be positive most of the times for this matter.
I would assume that the market could repeat the 2018 this year if it is the cycle, in that case we are already down to a lower price, back in the day bitcoin went from 20k to 6k levels and now from 68k to under 40k levels as well. But, with the same logic we should be 50k+ next year, and then 70k+ year after that and 500k+ the year after that.

Do you really believe that x10+ increases could still happen in a single year? I am not saying it can't happen, but maybe things are different since we are at a higher price. Doesn't mean that it can't be moving from 70k to 500k+ in a single year but I feel like we may have to reel in our predictions.

Lyon got a huge win against Lorient in an away game last night. Actually, both teams had similar statistics but one thing was important that Lyon were much more effective about scoring many goals. This 4-1 win should be enough for improving their morale a great deal. Now they are right behind Strasbourg by two points but we will see the other results too. And today, Nice are playing a home game against PSG. Mbappe won't play as he is suspended now. But Messi and Neymar would be enough for a victory too. But Nice haven't been an easy opponent so far. They didn't lose to PSG in two games. Because of this, I'm thinking of giving a chance for Nice's double chance.
Once again, another not so shocking result. People expected Lyon to be bad because they had the same results as Lorient in the last 5 games. However, there is a reason why Lyon is head of lorient in the standings. They may not be the lyon we remember a decade ago, but they are certainly still a great team.

At the end of the day, we are talking about a team that is at the top half to the league versus a team that is at the bottom of the league. This is why the result wasn't shocking to anyone who realized this. The score could be a bit unexpected, 4 goals is not something Lyon does that frequently, they are a bit better on defense than offense, but aside from that the result was expected.
1396  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Round of 16! on: March 05, 2022, 09:16:47 PM
Inter Milan just got a big win in their domestic league I think it will be a reference and addition to their mentality to face Liverpool, even though they are 2 goals behind I think anything is still possible even though the chances for Inter Milan are very small. I think this match is going to be tough again.

on the other hand Bayern need a win I think they will get it easily, Salzburg is not a strong opponent for Bayern who have a better composition of players, in the first leg Bayern were just unlucky, they attacked a lot but failed to score a and managed to control the game with well, the goal came only in the last minute of the game to avoid Bayern from losing, from the whole game Bayern played very well, and when the second leg will be played at Bayern I believe Bayern will win big.
Beating the last team in the Serie A versus beating Liverpool are not similar in any way. I am not saying that it is not even remotely close, of course having some momentum and some happiness could be great but at the end of the day morale could help you until so much. Just because they got a win doesn't mean that they will get another win and another win constantly like that.

It means that we need to realize maybe betting on Inter may not be a great idea. Do not listen to me and decide accordingly, I am nobody and you should never wager based on what you read online, that is a stupid thing to do, I am only sharing my own view and only responsible for my own results, you should try to predict it yourself.
1397  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Metamask "decentra-lied" to us? on: March 05, 2022, 08:36:19 PM
After all these years this is the first time that it came up, there should be an official announcement about this coming from developers of Metamask because all these years they made us believe that Metamask is decentralized, but with this report, many suspected that it's not decentralized anymore and it could happen to any countries or location, there have been a lot of reports of hacking I don't believe on that because we all now only you can access your wallet with your private key but now things are unclear.
What you guys are missing out is already said here. It is not metamask software that is getting centralized, it is the company that is getting centralized. This was shared a bit back up before, and you guys are still thinking it is centralized wallet, and it is not. Wallet is still by far the most decentralized thing you could use because it literally is just interface, it is not even a wallet.

Your money is in blockchain, the metamask software just allows you to see it, or send it or receive and so forth, it doesn't actually hold the money in there, it just helps you with it, even if you end up with metamask disabled, you could reach to it from another wallet very easily. So, it is the company that bans access, but the wallet is still decentralized.

Transfer rumours:

Paris St-Germain's Argentine boss Mauricio Pochettino, who has been linked with the managerial job at Manchester United, is reportedly keen to return to his old job as Tottenham manager. Is Pochettino really going back to his old club?
It has been speculated too much so far that Pochettino will leave the team this summer and join Manchester United most probably. And it is likely to happen as long as PSG reach an agreement with Zinedine Zidane. Because Manchester United also have been interested in bringing him. But when it comes to the manager spot at Tottenham, I think it won't happen. Tottenham have Conte already and I don't think that they will prefer changing their manager in the near future. I believe that Tottenham can be more successful with Conte rather than Pochettino.
Pochettino is unknown to be fair, Zidane is unknown as well. The reason we do not know what will happen to Pochettino is because we do not know what Zidane will do. If Zidane accepts PSG then Pochettino will leave to premier league, I am pretty sure about that much. That is why I believe that we need wait for what happens with Zidane first. Pochettino to United is a bit more obvious, Spurs are not doing well neither but they are neither underachieving as much as United, not they are not managerless right now.

United put a temporary manager there but we all know they will replace him ,whereas Spurs at least have one. Pochettino to United in case of Zidane to PSG is still the biggest possibility.

Sevilla is constantly putting pressure on Real Madrid in the fight for the championship. In the match with Alaves they seem to be the clear favorite. The hosts are among the main candidates for relegation and I believe that they will not improve their number of points today. I find the odds of @2.00 for the victory of Sevilla very attractive.
I know that Sevilla has been awesome this year, but people see them losing their position to Barcelona at the end of the season and Barcelona finishing second as a bigger possibility than Sevilla becoming champions. I am not saying that this is what will happen, all I am saying is that there is at least a possibility of something like that happening and I wouldn't be shocked if it were to happen.

Sevilla is 9 points ahead of Barcelona with one game more in hand, meaning if Barcelona wins that game the difference is 6 points. Considering they will both Madrid, and then sevilla will face atm and bilbao, there is actually quite a big possibility that Barcelona could finish second and sevilla finish third. I see that as a bigger possibility than Sevilla beating Madrid and being at the top of the league as well, just makes no sense logically to me.

To feel comfortable working with the chosen strategy, you need to understand that you need to have enough experience in working with just such a strategy.
Totally agree, no way that you're comfortable with your strategy if you don't have any experience and you're way of approaching trading doesn't yield any success in your part which is a bad thing especially if you plan to be follow OP's advice regarding being comfortable, you would be relaxed for nothing.
I would assume that it is more about learning a good one and not being really dubious about what you are doing. Imagine it this way, if you are doing a strategy but have no idea why you are using that one and you just use it, then you would be bad at it, you just heard it from someone and you keep doing it because of that.

However, if you get comfortable with it (means learning it like back of your hand) then you would be able to actually use it properly because you know each part and know what they mean. That's the type of trading that gets you profits because you are well aware of the strengths and shortcomings of your own strategy and you can change it based on the situation.
