1461  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [POLL] Will BNB crash? Will Binance go bankrupt? on: January 27, 2023, 08:55:10 PM
CZ considered FTX as a threat to its dominance on the crypto industry (it was the second-largest crypto exchange), so he had no other choice but to "destroy" it by dumping FTT tokens. You don't mess with the "crypto kingpin" after all. Binance is now too powerful, setting a dangerous precedent for the entire crypto/Blockchain space. A collapse of the biggest crypto exchange in the world, would cause a severe harm to the industry that would leave it with no room for recovery. Not only that, but Binance becoming a monopoly would pose huge centralization risks for the entire space.

Binance's native token (BNB) may be down, but it will emerge bigger and stronger than ever as it's backed by the biggest crypto exchange in the world. I'd say bankruptcy is very unlikely right now. I hope other exchanges step up to the game (Huobi, Coinbase, etc) just to take out as much market dominance from Binance as possible. Once Binance is no longer a monopoly, nothing should stop crypto from achieving its full potential. Who knows what the future lies for the entire industry? Just my thoughts Grin
CZ can do this again on other crypto exchange who has their own token but those who don't have their own tokens are lucky because they are safe from this game. They have a good chance to advance in the top ranks. With what power binance have, do you still think that it will collapse?

I don't really think so but if let say it is then I think there are still a chance for recovery because there are still plenty of exchanges left and then there is always new exchange that comes out every day, ready to replace the position of those who collapsed. Even though binance is considered to be a monopoly, I think there is still a chance that crypto will boom and binance still have their own contribution about it.

Possible huge profit I think reason why many people priority investing in altcoin than bitcoin, I don't sure with manipulation or hype with altcoin but low budget and huge profit earn this main reason why altcoin is priority for investing. Don't forget with altcoin have huge risk, actually huge return will having huge risk due many time altcoin price drop drastically.

Talking about long term investing in altcoin have huge potential profit after seeing many altcoin price drop under $1 last several years and today have been reached above $50 until $100. But many time wrong choose when investing in altcoin after few days price pump and lately drop drastically until potential delist on market.
Aren't these people aware that BTC has the potential to pump up to $100k, $500k or even $1m? There are several threads about this before, so why will they believe on something which are risky and not guaranteed? Hmm. He is right that manipulations can happen most of the times in altcoins and tokens especially if that was a small coin or also a centralized one.

There are people who are after these manipulations thinking they can be rich instantly so they invest but those manipulators are much more wiser than them. This why many of those who invest on a pump and dump coins have lost a lot of money. If there is a good coin for long term then that would only be Bitcoin not altcoin.

It is disappointing to see Frank Lampard lose his job, a number of fans think that the whole problem in the club is caused by the owners of the club, not really blaming Frank Lampard for the poor performances and results in the club. Marcelo Bielsa replacing Lampard could be the best move for Everton judging from his stats and records in his managerial career.
Whatever the real problem is, we can't blame Everton management to fire Lampard because Lampard can't lead Everton to a proper position in EPL standings. Everton is in the relegation zone, it needs a change to take it out of the relegation zone as soon as possible. With a new coach, the whole players may have a new motivation to perform better and they may be more suitable with the tactics from Marcelo Bielsa. Well, let's see how far Marcelo Bielsa to give positive changes on the Everton performance.
In last few weeks, we have this second big star sacked as coach with first was Steve Gerrard from Aston Villa after their worst performance and now Frank Lampard who was best in his playing era at Chelsea lost his job due to the worst situation which bring Everton at the bottom of the league table, and they were giving the worst performance in last few matches.
Here just sacking coach is surely not solution for every team they also have to manage things in better way like bringing quality players and giving better support to coach hopefully now with the new management things could be improved, and they will be able to survive in this season after giving performance like this look like they are not going to have any solid chance for to survive in Premier League but Marcelo Bielsa is surely one of the best man in his job can change things in positive.

Barcelona are not that strong this season, am Suprise seeing them toping the Spanish Liga, I can't really see what they are playing and how come they are at the top of the league. Real Sociedad are really in a good form, they have be unbeaten in their last five games, talking about the game tonight, is not going to be an easy game for both team, Barcelona are more liking to win because they are the favorite, but football anything is possible, but I see a tight game tonight and they won't be much goals tonight.
Wow! Are you really referring to Barcelona, the Spanish one or there is another from the one I grew to know about?
Barcelona is not that strong? Did you watch the final Spanish super Cup? Didn't the ending tells you what they really are or you also consider that's as a luck.  Cheesy

Real Sociedad you rooted for lost to Barcelona, not because they are favorite but because they had a red card and playing 10 against 11 is very difficult especially a team like Barcelona. Barcelona are top of the season because they deserve it, may be a first leg highlights review will help you, you should check out.
Most chances he is not following La Liga or having very long sleep and now wake up with the last season's performance of the Barcelona is moving in his mind because after currently they are leading the league table by 3 points from second spotted and defending champions Real Madrid and most chances they could be able to stay at this level or can increase their lead with their performance which is now improving day by day Super Cup win is also indicating how things are now changing into their favour for the win in La Liga.

Real Sociedad can stay at the third spot because they already have good gape from other teams and Atlético Madrid and Villarreal both are on same level with fight for the remaining last and fourth spot for the next season's Champions League spot but most chances no team will challenge Barcelona for the title race with their current form.

Fulham are gradually losing too many points they have lost two games in a row which doesn't feel good for the level at which they want to play. Their match with Chelsea is another opportunity to try and get all three points but if you ask me I think Chelsea with the recent additions have a better chance against Fulham. Chelsea will have to be at their best to be able to win Fulham.
I agree that losing back to back games is bad and they are probably losing another one. However, we should also look at who they are losing to as well, first it was Newcastle and then it was spurs and now they will play Chelsea so all in all that is not really a bad stretch to lose to.

They had a tough schedule back to back and that is why they lost, but after this there is like maybe 3 more teams that could beat them, aside from those they could win every single game, not going to win it all of course but they could collect so many points from those games. This will allow them to go on winning streaks and have a great momentum as well, which is a beneficial thing for them.
Surely losing back to back matches are going to be negative for them but most chances they could be lost their third match as well because now Chelsea is surely doing good improvement, and they are searching for the better rank as well which is just possible if they will win matches from now otherwise this could be the worst case and their season going to end at the worst as well, but their performance is surely on high note for this season, and they are going to stay into top half of the league table which is surely amazing for them after coming into Premier League.

Chelsea which was having one of the worst time with few inner changes now showing good performance and have enough quality to fight back with massive wins because now it's right time for changing their view and having better results.

Regardless of whether they believe it or not, everyone will also know about the fact that during January 2023 the price of bitcoin and most other altcoins has increased. Of course they don't have to trust anyone online because actually we are not saying anything definite, but analysis can certainly help them to believe both fundamentally and technically.

I also won't be completely convinced that bull market has been confirmed, but at least there is still an opportunity for now to accumulate as much assets as I can in preparation for another bull market in the future.
The increase that happened lately can be their indication that a bull run is coming but there a lot of people who are actually against it. They say that what happened can only be a bull trap.

Like it or not, there will always be people who easily believes on what others are saying especially if they are less knowledgeable and then those who give statements present themselves as an expert on that field but I guess they already know the consequences of doing this and sometimes those give their own predictions do also give a disclaimer that not all they say must be taken seriously. Whether a bull run is confirmed or not, it's always a good idea to keep on stacking bitcoins to secure one's future.
1467  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Should I be worried? on: January 25, 2023, 09:32:10 PM
Once upon a time I used to be into everything that has everything to do with Artificial Intelligence and I was happy that some blockchain projects are into A.I but they never seem to get better adoption, A.I is something g the world wants but it just seem too early, now I've give up on crypto / blockchain A.I projects but now
It was still under development which is why it was not a wise move to invest in them. But I see it can be a useful project in the future when the majority adopt AI. But for now, investing in them is too risky, and can't assure anything like the success of their project.
I think it's best to invest when the project is still early and this is where you can get their coins at cheaper. If we wait a little longer then the discounts will end and then maybe their value will start to increase as more people start to notice them. The AI belongs to the future so I am sure that the interest of the public towards the AIs will only get deeper.

Metaverse is also like AI. This is like an overview if what to expect in the future, so investing on it can also be profitable later on. Investing doesn't need to be huge but you can also do it with tiny amounts. Now will still that scare you? Maybe if you see that you are profiting, you will regret on why you didn't invest more.
1468  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: It's a good idea to just register on casino on: January 25, 2023, 07:26:00 PM
The only risk I see for doing this is when you mistakenly register on scam casino using the same password of your other online accounts since those people can possibly access your accounts if they do back tracks and seek for another platform to hack so we also need to be more careful with this and always use multiple password especially on planned registration to any new casino or even on other websites.
This is why before we register we must check the reputation of the casino first if they are legit or not but even if it's a legit casino, it's always advised to use a different password for each platform that we use (as you said).

If possible, we can also use a dummy mailbox to get a verification code when signing up on a casino since we are registering on a multiple casino but that new mailbox should never expires just in case we forgot our login details and we want to recover our accounts. The last thing on the list would be to enable 2fa's in each of our accounts so that the hacker can't easily access them unless if they also steal our mobile phone where we store our google authenticator.

Unfortunately, this is not 100% correct information. RTP can be adjusted and that is why different casinos have 1-2% difference for same slots by same provider, casino can decide which option is best for its own advantage.  Negative thoughts is caused by house edge which is unbeatable in the long term, as explained before players can't beat the casino but player can.
Not entirely sure but when a casino is using a game provider then RTP and such things are not in casinos control. The provider adjust it depending on the game. The casino is only responsible to bring clients in their platform and let the clients to play. Bet history and everything else except customer management are done by the provider.

These days unless you are a big casino, you can not afford your own system. You are just using others API. I guess bet365 are big enough to have their own game engine and sports engine. I could be wrong.
Basically it's like affiliate network. Imagine I am a farmer and I sell oranges, and there is someone who eats oranges, how would I make sure that they eat my oranges? I find a seller, and that seller goes out and find people who eat oranges and sell my oranges to them. In this scenario Stake basically finds games from others, and find a ton of customers, then brings those games to their customers and they do not have to worry about anything else but finding customers that's it, wins and losses all matter to provider, not to stake.

This is how they just make pure profit, and with tens of thousands of customers, they make some sweet sweet profit for sure, all those drake and nba etc etc deals were made with that kind of selling talent.

Why not both? Yes, you can gain more in crypto trading if you have the right skills, this include day trading in alts/token rather than just holding BTC or ETH and we're talking in both bear and bull season.
Investing in stocks might be best but only for long term, but you have more assurance that it won't go to zero or 50-80% down overnight unlike in alts/token imo.
Investing is much easier and doesn't need a lot of monitoring so it doesn't interfere with our trading careers even if we do them all together. It only maximizes our earning capabilities. While waiting for the prices to moon, we are already earning sufficient income at all times just by trading alone.

Bears or bulls, there will always be fluctuations but I think the price are much stable during a bearish season and the recovery of the price is much smaller so the profits that we can get in trading can be a little smaller too than if we are in a bullish season. The only positive thing about the bears is that we can be able to buy a coin at a much cheaper rate.
1471  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Australia launches stablecoin on: January 23, 2023, 07:21:30 PM
I guess that many will not like it but Australia launches their stable coin backed by Australian Dollars. There goes the CBDC from other countries like China and this seems is going to be the source of the money that shall flow for the next bull run and this trend might continue for next years.
Like many others, i do not think that a centralized stable currency will help the entire cause of having a decentralized currency, it might help if the main target is to pump and dump like we are seeing every rally but i really do not like the direction in which the space is moving forward. More control by the government and asset freezing will be the headline in a few years, it will help in countering the scams but privacy is at stake.
Stable coins (centralized or not) have their own usage. It can be used as a back up just like a fiat for use on emergency situations like when the market is dumping and we need to buy more coins. They are also good for sending or receiving money because they don't fluctuate so we won't have a hard time dealing with the price differences.

There were only some drawbacks of using them and of one it is like you said our funds can get frozen so we should only use them at our own risk. CBDC are becoming a thing now but don't worry, as I never hear many countries who ban crypto and pushes their own crafted coin. The use of them is still optional.

Undoubtedly this year's premier league title belongs to Arsenal. They have shown an outrageous performance from the beginning of the season till this moment. Winning big and small teams without mercy. Arsenal is now the present bulldog in PL  that can devour any club that comes closer.

It's a well-deserved victory for Arsenal. Although their victory over Manchester United didn't come easy. Both clubs played fantastic football from start to end of the match.
In this season, we have two teams at the top which are undoubtedly having amazing performance and their current spots are surprising for the millions of soccer fans around the world first is Arsenal which is currently at the top of the league table after ending of 20 rounds of this season and second is Newcastle United which is also having third spot because no one was expecting performance like this from these two teams, but they achieve historical success and now bring themselves to the level of champions even still changes can happen but their game plan and quality is amazing.

Now in next three weeks we have two matches between Manchester City vs Arsenal first is going to play at Etihad Stadium which is going to play for The FA Cup fourth round and after this on 16th February we have another encounter between these two teams which is going to play at Emirates Stadium for the Premier League these matches will give good changes in league table because winner could be in better position and loser can drop from his spot.

If Bayern use the high pressure they know how to do, and PSG have all of the trio on the field, then I'm sure the outcome will be favorable for Bayern. At a minimum, Neymar and Messi like to play on clean balls (Mbappe is less concerned about this since he is initially far from the main events on the field and has to wait for passes) and do not really like dirty fights in the center of the field, so Bayern will have an advantage in the most important area. Even from the games with Benfica and Juventus (although PSG won both matches with Juventus), it was clear that PSG was very awkward to play in this format.
There were clear signs both teams are having issues like Bayern Munich is now facing few injuries which can prevent them from having good performance in this round against PSG but on other hand we also have news about Neymar is also not 100% fit after the world cup and this is the biggest concern for them with this Mbappé is also not effective like he needs to be for the toughest games which is clearly signalling Bayern Munich can do better performance and steal the show despite all rumors which are going against them due to Neuer and Sadio Mané as these both were main players for them in this season but right now these both are out of the game with most chances Neuer is unlikely to join again Bayern Munich with is broken leg in off the field accident.

As for how to play it, it's like with any other slot, you don't need to know anything, just push the button, and anything that follows entirely depends on luck.
Yes, that is generally how slot games work. To play a slot game, you typically select your bet amount, press the spin button, and then the reels will spin. The combination of symbols that land on the reels will determine whether you win or lose.

I'm always confused when I hear someone claim to follow some techniques or strategies while they play slots. Slots are games of chance, and the outcome of each spin is determined by a random number generator. There are not strategies that will increase your chances of winning.
What can you do if they think and act like that? They believe that it works for them and they think it was better to play it that way than just simply smashing the bet button. And if we think about, dice games and other casino games which are also known to be based on chance or luck are also being taken seriously by some gamblers where they formulate a strategy.

The popular one is martingale. This was originated in dice game but later gamblers try it on other games like on keno, roulette, limbo and many others. Whenever I play slots I think my strategy is just switching the number of line. I don't know if this works on other slot games but I play the scarab spin slot on stake.
1475  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin always shames social media experts. on: January 22, 2023, 06:52:00 PM
One unique feature of Bitcoin is that it always put social media acclaimed "experts" to shame. Sometimes these social media bitcoiners claim mastery over bitcoin. They indiscriminately predict its price as if they invented the coin with Satoshi. Even Satoshi now might not understand the price movement of Bitcoin because the creation is now economically powerful.
They are social media experts, so they know what the trend always is and how best to gain attention with it. Cryptocurrency is a big topic among youths, so what better way to gain the attention of the youths if not to act in a way like an expert in what is interesting them. They take up these roles as experts in cryptocurrency to gain more audience, followers and influence of people. Some of the predictions they have made that maybe entered or worked were most likely still not their predictions but borrowed predictions from people. I have developed the culture for a long time now not to take people on social media without results serious, because social media can be misleading.
Usually, the trend can start in social media sites so if you are an expert of it (you use it often and you visit different social media sites) then you are always up to date about the latest happening around it. Not all are experts but some of them are just wannabees and there are ways to identify it.

For a fake expert, their calls are mostly bad so we must be careful because losses are the only thing that we can get if ever we follow the wrong people. It's better if we will learn only on our own so that we are sure about our decisions. Learning on our own can also make us more knowledgeable than if we will only depend on other people.

After this season, Tottenham Hotspur will part ways with Antonio Conte! He is nearing the end of his contract, but the Spurs have not talked to him about a new contract. This isn't a surprise, rather I expected it. However, he still has the option of signing a new contract. Conte may not stay, but who will replace him? The team's form does not improve when new managers are brought in every other season. It's not just about the coach. It is also important for them to look beyond that because a new manager will face the same challenges and make the same promises.
I was reading Antonio Conte is also not considering any extension after completing his two years contract because Tottenham management is not happy things are not working as they were having expectations, so both parties are ready for ending this partnership with most chances we will have Thomas Tuchel again here in England even this is just rumour, but we have few chances about this as most chances we will have few other changes as well because few players are also not happy as they are looking for the winning of trophies but here nothing happening like this which is frustrating for them but for this management needs to have big investments as well because right now without top players and big investments trophies are not coming.

The match between Villarreal vs Girona has started in the Spanish League. It is almost half time of this game. But neither team has scored any goals. I am a little worried about which team will win this match today because I have placed a bet on this match. I hope so.  Will win the bet. But as long as Villarreal can't score any goals, I will be worried. I support Villarreal in this match.
Right now, we are in 80th minute of this match with no team able to break this deadlock and score is 0 - 0 which mean Girona is doing good job because few weeks back Real Madrid lost here against same opponent which was the second defeat of this season for them, but Girona is having good defense which is giving them support for having positive end of this match with one point could be also enough for them because right now they are in safe zone with lost no match in last five games, but surely this could be setback for the home side after losing two points against CELTA Vigo after having early lead they fail to maintain this until end of the game and now having another draw which mean they are now not going to fourth spot which was looking in their side after beating Real Madrid.

Week 20, Lens will travel to Troyes headquarters. They have done very well so far including beating Paris Saint Germain. They have a difference of 3 points that they really have to protect by winning the game this week. Troyes is a weak team, so they have to make the most of their chances in the game later. It's very difficult to get close to Paris Saint Germain on points, and they have that now, they have to apply pressure that will make Paris Saint Germain uncomfortable.
In 20th round, we have few other interesting matches as well which can bring good changes in league table as things now entering into next phase of the season with these changes we can expect good fight for the top ranks PSG already suffered two defeats, and now they have just 3 points gape from second spotted Lens and this will make things more interesting with Marseille is also having amazing run after the break and now have 42 points which is clearly giving good indications for tough tussle until end of this season.

Lens now having visit to Troyes which is having not good form, but Lens is also struggling in away matches which is giving them problem with this match we can expect good result for them because now if they are not able to have positive result then surely things can go against them for this second spot in league table.

I thought the match would be a draw. But the performance of the Wolfsburg players really surprised me. From the start of the match, the dominance of the Wolfsburg players was like choking. Wolfsburg scored their first goal in 1 minute. .and they led 3-0 at the end of the first half. Freiburg's defenders couldn't put up any resistance. And Wolfsburg won the match 5-0. The defeat in this match dropped Freiburg to fourth place in the points table.
I was also in same thoughts with their performance and results which they have before break expectations were high about their chances to be stayed at the top of league behind leaders Bayern Munich but today Wolfsburg done amazing stuff and completely outclass them with the score of 6 - 0 which is surely the worst for me against team which is doing impressive job from the start of the season and have second spot in league table as well.

Now things are surely interesting with this result we have three teams on 30 points gapes are also now five points from leaders and in next round we have Freiburg going to host Frankfurt which could be also not easy game for them with the current form of the Frankfurt which is now at the second spot and can stay here with their performance and quality at right now.

2025......? maybe we inevitably have to follow the 4-year cycle that has occurred in several bullish periods in previous years.
to be honest I doubt a little if this will ever be a 4 year cycle like it was but if we speculate looking at the movement of the cycle it is a bit true and this year is like a big discount to buy bitcoins and collect more.
but back to each strategy because everyone has their own goals.
this is just my speculation, that this will happen again.
You first said that a 4 year cycle maybe inevitable so why having a doubt on your second sentence? You can doubt it if it happened 1 time only but it happened 3 to 4 times now so I think the year 2025 is going to be the fifth on the list. This year, we can see that the prices are now starting to recover but we can still buy if we want to and expect that we can still earn something later on.

I only can't say that this was a big discount but if ever there are then that would be last year when the price is at their bottom. Each of us has our own strategy but we all have similarities and that is we buy, hodl (can be short or long term) and sell for profits.
