First we should understand what really happen and why they are willing to let go of Ayton. Yes, he is a vital part of the offense and defense of the Suns, but it seems that Ayton doesn't have the mindset though, in the finals against the Bucks he was out hustle by Giannis and there was a critical play that he was block. And after that, the Suns didn't offer Ayton a max contract, first sign that he will not stay as Suns for long. And last season, we've seen how he got bench in Game 7 because they way Monty see it, Ayton quit on them. So it's just a matter of time before Ayton will be traded and this is the right time.

Might be the reason, an inside issue between Ayton and the coaching staff.

Now that they see that the relationship between him is no longer working well, it's the best time to send him to another team
who can provide good deals and fair trading value.

It's a matter of time now to what team he may land and who will be his replacement that Suns will bring to their squad,
the system is still there though it's just the player to adjust and work on int.

Gambling cant be inherited because this is basing up on behavior which is something not connected with that DNA thingy or something like that.
As a guardian or parent if you dont like for your children to be a gambler then dont let them to see on what you've been doing.
I'm of the same opinion but if they have a study and proof that it's really hereditary, there's no way to twist and flip that study case that they've got and the same goes to the proof.
But as parents, we don't want to be the same with our children if it's about gambling and what we want for them is the best that they can. That's why as part of parenting, we're telling them not to be the same as us and avoid gambling.

Responsible parent will never allow things like this to happen with their kids,

They will do everything to make sure that their kids will be away from this kind of activities, many argument
might come up, but the sure thing in my opinion, every responsible parent will do the best that they can
to avoid things to happen with their kids, they don't want to see them facing difficulties once addiction
triggered their kids.

Hello I have thought of holding 4 particular currencies which includes BTC, ETH, BNB, UCT. But within me I feels I should trade with them to accumulate more of those currencies maybe before the bear will be finally over I would have ended up having much of them I engaged myself by trading.

I want to know if holding or trading will be more preferred. All suggestions are welcomed.

3 of your coins are enough to be on hold so what are your plans ? to put them in shitcoins instead?

best to dispose that UCT and convert at least to Ripple for more ready holding that that coin.

trade only if you have knowledge and time , if none of those are on you? then best to keep holding for years.
I would swap that UCT for ICP or a micro cap like 0xMR if you want a higher risk/reward ratio. I would also rather hold XRP than ETH or BNB honestly.

It's you to decide though, right? And just like your comparison, if you understand the risk/reward

you can come up with an idea that will let you believe and support the asset that you'll going to support. It's more on
knowledge base and the positivity that you provide with each asset that you are holding.

Most experienced traders choose different coins from a different perspective, either to go long or short but the
catch is how they will manage to take profits.
1484  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Time to buy some low cap coins on: July 11, 2022, 05:21:46 PM

Any investment is highly recommended to diversify, especially if we want to invest in low cap coins, it is very risky if we only invest in one coin.
Because if we bet all our capital on one coin, then when the coin falls in price, we will lose all our money. Even for Bitcoin which is very safe
for investment, it is not recommended to invest only in Bitcoin. That is why our capital must be divided into several coins, thus not only minimizing
the risk of loss, but we can maximize the profit generated. I also agree that we should focus on investing in coins that we think are potential,
because the possibility to generate profits is much greater.

The risk can be minimized if you made a right decision to find the right coin to invest aside from bitcoin.

It's really a tough time sorting what particular asset to invest your money, those low cap coins once the market show strong bounce
the chances are great, especially if the developers didn't stop doing progress and continue being competitive even in the bear season.
It's your judgement that will allow you to be compensated when investing into this industry.
1485  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Should I invest in new projects? on: July 10, 2022, 11:14:16 PM
For my experienced, I saw many new project failed their goals.Another, Many new project were scammed. Many fake bounties manager did scam the new bounties project. So ig have interested to invest in new project then you need to recherch about project then you can invest in new project. But i suggested to you can invest in old and good project.

If you are more into benefits and you are a conservative type of investor, better to buy old and working projects,

but if you can handle risk and you are not afraid to explore, there are still new project that you can check
and try to spare a portion of your investment..

It's not an assurance that even you do your research hard you can end up with good profits using new projects
for your investment, it's just a matter of understanding the market and try to take your opportunities.
1486  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Crawford vs Spence on: July 10, 2022, 10:48:26 PM
Just like Manny Pacquiao, when he left Bob, he had the full freedom to choose the boxer that he lights to fight, and Manny had already earn more money in a fight since Bob has no more slice of the revenue.

The majority of Manny Pacquiao's fights under Top Rank Promotions owned by Bob Arum are mostly title defense match, or if not, considered good match.

And on top of that, Pacquiao always guaranteed with a big pot regardless if he's taking the 40% of the purse split. I don't fully see that Pacquiao's journey under Bob Arum is a nightmare compare to Crawford.

Totally different to Terence Crawford that most fights are not that hyped or big one. So far his fight with Spence Jr. is the biggest match of his career that just turned into reality because he stay away from Bob Arum.

Bob Arum knows the business, and he managed to bing the best for Manny, knowing that Pacquiao will convert it into dollars.

I agree that those fights for Pacquiao are mostly money fights, and we see that from the ways of he's living now. After those fights that happened, he really enjoys all the profits coming from Arum's arrangements, in
terms of Crawford, he will have now that chance after moving partway from Arum, if this negotiation
materialized the money that at stake will give him a decent amount of earnings.

They should just invest in younger stars that could be a potential asset to the team in the few years to come while LeBron James is there to teach the younger generations because 2 to 3 years from now, LBJ will eventually retire and leave the team.

They already did. Count the seasons where they surround Kobe with young stars until retirement. They let these young guys control the Lakers after Kobe's retirement and still what happened? Totally a failed investment and guess what, they only made the playoffs when Lebron James came to them.

Because that's what happened, the Lakers shift strategy by involving big names on their roster as the young lineup didn't work for several seasons.

The Lakers are not building a super team but if those big names show interest in playing with the team, why should they hesitate to work on that?

So should they stop on investing on young assets that could potentially make the team dangerous in the years to come? Of course, that's why it's called investment because it's not a guarantee that they would bloom and will make the LA Lakers a heavy team. That is also why I've said that they should invest now while LBJ is still in there team to guide and teach the new generations.

It's already proven that a bunch of post-prime players aren't going to make it, hype will just surround them at the start but eventually it will be a big mistake. 1 or 2 star players will suffice and others will be a role/support player.

Did I say they should stop? They just need to balance everything and not focus too much on getting young stars.

Since you mentioned "stars", it's hard to get a young stars as the majority of those are currently in-contract. They will really end up getting post-prime players or literally a young player but not on the all-star or superstars caliber yet.

Good role players are much better to pick compared to young stars.

Probably yes, those young stars are already in a contract and having them needs a bigger investment.

Unlike with role players who can play and jibe with LBJ and AD, it's still a good pick, especially if they can have
someone who can give good minutes of rest for these two stars.

Lakers are still a good competitor. They just need to have a healthy core and numbers of role players who
can play alongside with the rest of the team is the focus on this upcoming season.

Bitcoin is the best currency to hold. People invest and hold these bitcoins the most.However, I have been holding Bitcoin BNB and many other things.I believe that soon I will get something good from my holding coins.

If you have a good amount of spare to invest, Bitcoin is always on the top.

though there are many alt projects that you can check around the market, you can pick other coin aside from Bitcoin
just always perform your DYOR and observe how the market will move along the way.

there are top assets that you can pick for your long-term goal. It's up to you what coin do you prefer to invest in whatever

Gary has reason to be happy because the Blazers signed him to a three-year contract worth $28 million. If I'm not mistaken, that's the biggest contract of his career. He definitely deserved it, and I hope he will progress more with his new team. As for the Warriors, they should have retained the current championship roster, but it looks like the Warriors' management doesn't want to meet all the financial demands of some players.

They can't acquire retaining those role players as the amount of their salaries after winning the title.

I'm good with parting ways as GP2 can impact teams that he will be moving. It's good to see him now helping Dame as the
guy needs someone who can give him the backup support when doing his job.

Let's see how things will turn with the Blazers and how GP2 will continue the boost he always provides way back with the
GSW uniform.

Ithink its good to invest in shiba . Shiba is a meme coin but have a potential coin . Isee the shiba always trending and also have a great volume in trade. Also dyor before you invest . Ill trust the process of shiba it will be great price soon like doge coin

The importance of DYOR, as even you are investing with Meme assets, you'll be able to catch up be compensated.

It's just a right time to invest and also the right time to sell your assets during the peak, if you know how to work things out
then the chance to earn from the project that you'll going to support is always possible.

It's your good anticipation and how you select projects for your investment, knowing the fundamentals and
work with following the updates and progress gives you an idea when to position yourself.

Moses Moody.
https://www.nba.com/news/nba-2k23-summer-league-standouts-moses-moody-ultra-efficient-in-warriors-victory
Quote
Moody produced 34 points against the Knicks and looked solid at both ends. This coming after a season of relatively limited action: like Jonathan Kuminga, once the 2022 playoffs began, he was a victim of a numbers crunch as the Warriors leaned more toward Otto Porter Jr. and Gary Payton II during their championship run.
Could be the new partner of Jordan Poole on bench production. He was not given many minutes but we saw him contribute many time especially in the outside range. They may push him to work harder so that spot of Otto Porter and Gary Payton II will be given to him.
This is nice, another name who may possibly be talked about next season. Just run the play, do it right, and everything will fall at the right spot.
An impressive stat, he and Kuminga plus a healthy Wiseman if they will continue developing and enhancing

their skills, they will surely be the next generation Warriors core. They are all young and in terms of talents they've got
all the capabilities to compete and create their own resume in this league.

It's just a matter of consistently and the way they will adopt the system that's already established within this squad,
Expecting to see them playing for more minutes together with the main core of GSW this upcoming season.
1492  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Government Owned Online Casinos What Do You Think Of Its Potential on: July 09, 2022, 07:19:55 PM
We can but on this part, I'll just let them do their own thing and they won't allow anyone from thincitizens to intervene on that decision.
This is an appointment to one that the higher official knows who can do the job better and we will just be observers. And at the same time, a government owned online casino will possibly be hard to be bankrupt because it's supported by the government. And that's why many gamblers would come and go there because of that assurance.
If citizens cannot follow the process of selecting officials or officers who will join the government-owned casino, they can only support government programs. What is important, citizens can also feel the tangible results of the government's work for the welfare of its people.

With the government's support, the casino will probably not go bankrupt because, in terms of income, it will be greater than the others. And that's why the government wants to take advantage of the popularity of casinos.
Most governments don't allow that to happen since the citizens are just plain and the government is the one to do its task.
As a supported business by the government, the high revenue is on them and they should make it easy for the customers to trust them because they're from the govt.

If they can pick the right personnel to take over the chance of getting decent taxes and incomes from this plan

is really achievable, but if they will just place people who have hidden agendas to corrupt the system and to have power to
put their own money making system.

there's nothing to expect, but an abuse for the citizens of the country. Then again, everything will be good if the person
who will facilitate the business is pro-people / for the benefits of many, and nothing else.
1493  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Inherited gambling on: July 09, 2022, 03:56:53 PM
Gambling is not in DNA, neither is the smoking and drug addiction. Many kids do not smoke at all if they don't like their mom or dad smoking and dying day by day.
Many kids like to stay clean and don't drink at all if they have seen their parents struggling hard to get out of drinking addiction. Neither is gambling a productive activity nor its transferred through DNA
The habit may be inherited if you think of it that the parents and the children have been doing the same activity. It's true that gambling isn't in the DNA.
But traits and habits can be done and inherited and it will still gonna be depending on the children if they'll let that dominate them. There go the children that have the behavior that they'll do the same things of what their parents are doing.

Depends on how the person adopts the system, might be true that if the kids don't like to do the same

they can stay away from these activities and find their own path, if they see that there's nothing for them or if they are not
enjoying but in that same sentiments, if those kids see that the parents are enjoying the mindset or the thinking is they can
imitate that just simply following how the parents deals with it.
1494  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Does staking even make any sense on: July 09, 2022, 03:32:24 PM

Staking very popular and in demand when cryptocurrency market rise. During the rise of the market many people earn more income for staking but whey cryptocurrency market falls many people stop staking and sell their assets.

Staking certainly is a convenient way to earn passive income. But remember this, cryptocurrencies are high-risk assets, and things can go wrong quickly when you try to predict short term movement.

Such thing happened to staking of many coins. Many people who bought coins and earned something in a time of growth sold them when price goes down. If you like staking and hold your assets, even in a hard time you will gain profit, not lose it.

So don't stake more than you're willing to lose, and make sure you have a backup plan in case your assets decrease in value.

Very important in each participation that you are thinking in terms of staking.

High-risk investment. Even the coin you think that the coin you bought is really solid, there are times that you will feel
the pressures when the market hits the bearish season.

But likewise, if you are willing to take the long hold and you have that enough patience, it's possible that you can, really
enjoy the kind of earnings that you are hoping to achieve.
1495  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Profitable are Gambling Bots? on: July 09, 2022, 03:11:35 PM
I would not use bot. Although I am a social media manager as well and I know how this bots work but I don't recommend it to my clients and most of the time I suggest them not to go for it and try to have an organic approach.

Tecnically, I can't see the relevance between bot using in Social Media and bots that is actually using in gambling. I can't see the benefits that I will get using bots in gambling, I already try using them few years ago but I end up losing more, losing money by purchasing it and losing money because it is not effective I rather trust my instinct rather than use that bot.

You always have to consider this kind of risk when you bought a created bot for your gambling,

there's no assurance or any guarantee that it will bring good generating success, with how you describe your experience
it shows that you just not lose your bankroll, but together with the amount for the bot.

Maybe there's also available bot that you can get for free, but then again the assurance that you will be able to properly
set up is unsure, plus the fact that gambling platforms can change and update from time to time.
1496  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Never sell for a loss - is a Myth !! on: July 08, 2022, 10:45:46 PM
It's not a myth because here in crypto we have those investors and they usually go for longer terms but it is a myth for those who are actively trading because for them time is money. They shouldn't wait for the price to recover but they can just put a stop loss to get going.

Sure thing that you could limit your losses in a stop loss but that is if you don't trade again but if let say you will buy right after you sell at a loss, there's a chance that the price can go down again. At that point you are still in a loss but the loss you got earlier are already permanent whilst to those who hodl, they technically didn't lose anything yet because they haven't sold anything.

The volatile nature of this market can always tell us that there's no way we can exactly predict the next market movement.

I get your point and that's really fact when using stop-loss, there's still a chance that the market
will not favor your next position even you think that the next trend will be a good bounce back.

Recovering is hard, but when you already understand the drill, there's also a good chance that
you will enjoy this market.
1497  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: July 07, 2022, 06:53:32 PM

Last season, he only played 17 games (https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/p/porzikr01.html), which would not help a team succeed. IIRC, Wizards had some good start last season but when injuries hit them, they go down in standing until they are now anymore in the top 10. I think they should get rid of him and surround Beal with healthy players, that way they'll be able to see a positive production for Beal and the team in the coming new season.

Maybe yes or try to give him that equal chance and see, by the way trades will happen if they don't see any improvement

and if they see that the value of the asset that they acquire is not worth and not really helping Beal, there are always options
for Wizard since there's still a team that might be interested in KP,

We never know how the upcoming season will be for this team. If they improve, then it's good, but if not, then another
experiment needs to be worked out to surround Beal leading the team.
1498  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: July 07, 2022, 01:19:53 PM
Here's the salary of the Wizards roster.

https://www.spotrac.com/nba/washington-wizards/cap/

Porzingis is next to Beal with $33 million by next season, and I don't think the Wizards will try to trade him but I'm sure there's still some place to add role players that will make the roster of the Wizards deep.

Yeah, we forget about KP, he did have some good games when he was traded to the Washington and hopefully he can still contribute big. It's that that he is also injury prone and in Dallas he was just a shell of his old self.

But let's see how KP will do next season, a lot is expected on his shoulder and maybe adding a good players won't hurt their salary cap.

That's the problem with KP. His injuries keep him away most of the time, but just like what you said, he got good run

after the trade, his trade materialized from both ends. Maybe he needs some motivation and not just play to earn mentality
but to play and help the team in winning games.

They need to additional players to make this team more competitive, if they can sign another quality player and they
will play together with a healthy squad. The chance is better for Wizard this upcoming season.
1499  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Crawford vs Spence on: July 07, 2022, 01:14:31 PM
do you really think Spence Jr will accept the 40% cut considering that he has more belts than Crawford? it is more on Crawford getting the 40% cut here. anyway, forgetting the purse split, these 2 boxers should fight as early as they can. don't wait 5 years down the road before they finally agreed about purse splits or other things.

Not going to happen. Spence Jr. should at least get the 60% of the purse and not the other way around. If he will just get a 40% cut, he might just move up weight and disregard fighting Crawford where he can earn more.

I know both parties know the agreement already but just finalizing things.

No announcement until now but surely it will be released this month or next. But let's hope that announcement is not about the fight will be canceled lol.

It will be really unfortunate if this fight is going to be cancelled, they already put a lot of effort to negotiate, even Crawford himself didn't re-sign his contract with Bob Arum of Top Rank so that he can secure this fight because he knows that Arum doesn't want to work with PBC which is Spence promotional company.

Make sense for Spence to ask that 60%, I guess majority of us will agree to that. He is the bigger draw and then the belts that he is holding.

Both crowd and the belt he currently holding gives him that privilege to ask for a bigger slice of the profits.

Aside from the titles and the fame, both camps are more into the money that this fight is possibly generating. It's disappointing
to the fans who are waiting if in anyhow the negotiations will not materialize.

Both respected champs are expected to have their own demands and they need to settle it together with the promoters that
will hold the fight once both camps sign the contract.

Yes, we both have a different opinion, I say this because making these kinds of mistakes, at least in the country where I come from, it is very difficult to get reimbursed, however, there are people who make transfers and make mistakes in that sense, so why As long as the issuer asks for the return, the bank will not do it, but looking at it from a more ethical point of view, when the receiver realizes that it is money that belongs to another person, the duty is to return it without putting obstacles, this when verify that the money is legally from that person in question, because otherwise it would be taken as theft and it is not the idea, but in case it is in the name of a government, for example my country that is quite corrupt is different, because there are many people who would not return it if they know it is from the government. Also, for people who steal, things don't work out, just as it comes quickly, it goes quickly, that's like a divine law, that's how ill-gotten money is.





Country like Japan who value more their morality, that kind of mistake can't be escape.

The government can easily detect the person who abused the money and he will be punished with the kind of crime he
made, though we already read that he's already been convicted, and he didn't deny his gambling problem, though I can
understand your point that there's a different culture that each country has and the people who's running the government.
