I didn't think you are an idiot. It's just that you test a strategy and since we don't know what will happen next, you end up losing on the process. That's a wonderful experience I should say and not a dumb thing that you did.

What kind of strategy should you do now, I think you already know it but there's a worry that it might lead to you again losing.

I won't say any advice but just continue testing some strategies until you found a working one that's fit on your long-term goals.
Test a strategy and lose $35k in the process? I think that's a lot but anyone can use a small capital first when they know that it was only a test run and they are not sure if the results is going to be positive or not. Anyway, he cleared it out that what he did at first is investing and maybe he is investing blindly and ended up picking the wrong coins. It's only great tho that he didn't give up after losing massive and it seems he is learning now because there he is, asking if the new starts that he is using are correct.

@OP I think you are doing fine with it, as you said you are seeing some positive results now. Just continue doing it and I hope you will soon recover all of your losses.

The Brazilian team is full of youngsters. All the players in the team play very good football. All of them are one of the most expensive club players in the world. So I wonder if they can all play with a good understanding, who can stop them. I haven't seen any win against any big team so far, I hope to do well in the future
Brazil always creates talented young players, we always see that season after season. It is a talent that is rare in every country, and fortunately Brazil can do just that. And they always get positions in the big teams in competitive leagues. But as you said, their cooperation in the country is still questionable, whether they are able to play with a good collective or not.
That is correct - Brazil always creates talented young player and so does portugal and spain.
But it is not he country it is the hard work and effort created by one person which creates the legend.
It's nothing new for Brazil they are having natural talent and best system which is surely deadly combination for world and most of the time they are doing amazing performance even their players are having no good experience because they can go through with their best abilities and can beat any team in any conditions even last two decades are having not good success of them but still they are one of the best team in the soccer world with their talented players and skills.

In this world cup they are coming with their full strength and most chances they are going to be most deadly team with having the best chance for winning this event and breaking deadlock which is having between them and UEFA countries for last two decades.

Here the question is, have you ever seen a user getting banned from an online casino for card counting?

To be clear, card counting isn't a method to always win, it's just a method to have better odds.
I think this is not possible because how can the dealer see you? Unless if it's a live game where they can also see your face in real-time. There are people who got banned in online casinos but that must be for other reasons. This is one of the advantages of the online casino, that is we can do something which we normally can't do in the real life.

Winning from this trick is not guaranteed so risking yourself in a real-life casino is not recommended but if you are only playing online then it's a must to include every time you play a certain card game. Having an increased chance of winning is always better than the standard winning rate.

Arshdeep bowls very well in the death overs which we saw in the Asia Cup. In the last over of the two matches, he was expected to give India a win but he failed as the opposition needed only a few runs.

Bhuvi has regularly bowled badly in the death overs in some recent matches so now it would be right to consider others for the death overs instead of relying on him. I also hope that India will do well in the World Cup. And Virat Kohli's return to form is a relief for Team India.
I am feeling bad for this youngster why they are not giving him chance even he is the quality bowler and have enough skills to give a good end to India now Bhuvi is consistently bad in death overs but giving him chance again and again instead of Arshdeep not understandable because before world cup this was big stage, and he surely deserves chance after having very good performance in Asia Cup and specially at the death overs when he gives good support even every time his teams was in bad shape.

After some rest today Bumrah also back, but he was also not good, so he also needs some more practice before this world cup because having injury and not enough practice can bring some problems for India and Bumrah in Australian difficult conditions after two failures Virat Kohli back again and done good runs at very crucial stage with this batting surely we can see he is set for big stage.

It looks like Sergio Busquets will stop playing football and will enjoy his old age to rest or maybe also do business again as a football coach even though he is still not too old to be a soccer coach, but if he until now still hasn't shown where he will go because Sergio Busquets is still too in love with Barcelona. But usually those who are not extended at Barcelona will be targeted by other clubs, so it depends on whether Sergio Busquets wants to continue his football career or not.
Busquets is likely to leave Barcelona in the summer and continue his career in MLS. He said that it was important for him to play in the main team and I think that the amount of the contract is take not the last place in this choice. Many star players continue their careers in the MLS. Busquets has had a great career at Barcelona, he's been with the team since 2008 and I think of players like that that they should finish their career at the club where they spent their best time.
Sergio Busquets is surely one of the legendary players at Barcelona and now like Messi he also decided to leave this club after 14 years of his amazing performance but good thing most chances he is still going to play for some more years because he feels he can do this and his body is also allowing him to do this for some more years than it's good with this now he is transferring into MLS which is surely heaven for old players from UEFA having good money and some good last seasons in soccer, so he is also doing with this as CDM position now World Cup and then MLS surely going to be good for him in next few years and good money making portunities in MLS which is also important for player like Sergio Busquets.
1506  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: September 25, 2022, 04:22:39 PM
I'm sure Napoli will get back to three points against Torino and stay at the top of the table. Their opponents this time got disappointing results in their 2 matches. It will certainly be an easy match if you look at it statistically. Napoli are on a positive trend right now, especially since they are one of the unbeaten teams with Atalanta.
There is no doubt right now Napoli is doing amazing job despite selling their best players before start of this season and end all rumours about their future in this season with young players those are giving their best now after beating AC Milan in away match their confidence is super high as they already beat Liverpool at home in Champions League here they can beat Torino which also have good start of this season but now in last four matches they lost three which is surely poor from them.

After seven rounds we have only two teams in Italian League which are unbeaten Atlanta and Napoli, but they need to be keep this momentum because this is more important for staying into good spot until end of this season otherwise they can lose their spot like they lost in last season.
1507  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Keep or sell ethereum before the merge? on: September 25, 2022, 01:18:42 PM
This merger is a step towards solving some of Ethereum's biggest problems. The Ethereum network has been plagued by congestion and high fees for years. The new update is designed to fix the problem. I think, this not effects to price of ETH.

That's where merging comes in. Mergers are designed to have a long-term, not short-term impact. However, it won't immediately solve all of Ethereum's problems, but should lay the groundwork for future scaling solutions.
I feel like the decision to increase the price or not will be based on what happens with the transaction fee in the long run. If the congestion is over and the price is lower than the price will go up, because that has been the thing people have been waiting for.

It may not look good now, with the FED making the rates 3.25 and all, it's going to be a bit harder for people to have a bigger budget to invest on ETH, or any crypto to be fair, but when the time comes we are going to see it go up a lot, for sure. It's going to be a tough choice, but it could happen and we should be holding our ETH until it happens, because it looks quite promising so far.
1508  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are Your Kids Aware Of Bitcoin? Teach Them. on: September 24, 2022, 06:25:52 PM
While telling about bitcoins to children and kids, we do not need to tell them how to earn bitcoins etc. First, we need to tell them what is bitcoin and how it is different from paper money. What are the advantages of using bitcoin over fiat currency? How the middleman and cost can be reduced in transferring money from one country to another? These are the things that need to discuss with kids and not how can we become rich with bitcoins.
Yes. Even me, when I explain btc to adults I don't start in the earning part but I start by telling the bitcoin's history like what year it is created, who is its founder, etc. Kids are way too young to know if how to earn a btc so this isn't a priority but having them aware what is btc is already a big thing for them.

It's not bad to tell that btc can also be used in a way to earn a profit as soon as you already explain the main use of it that it is a currency or an alternative to fiat. Just give them a disclaimer that btc is highly volatile so that they won't be fully confident with it to put most of their money (if not all) if they decided to use it as an investment tool.
1509  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Polygon (MATIC) to $20? on: September 24, 2022, 04:33:32 PM
I'm a very beginner in crypto, in my opinion Polygon matic, is a quality altcoin, but if I think in the future the price of Polygon matic will definitely be high because now the team from matic has collaborated a lot with various large companies, if I'm not mistaken such as , DISNEY, and so on but of course it will definitely take time to reach high prices around 2 or 3 years. even I think the price will be more than 20 dollars.

In 2021 the highest price of matic was $ 2.8, I once bought at the highest price after that the price continued to decline and now it is only around $ 0.8, but I am optimistic that matic immediately risping and passes through ATH that has happened, what we do is buy and then use it for staking, Maybe 2 or 3 years will reach $ 20.

You need to have that kind of mentalities in order for you to continue supporting a project that you

believe will bring you a decent amount of profits. With how you describe your position, holding is a good way to
earn passive by means of staking.

You just need to continue collecting the staking rewards and wait till the value rally and bounces back or better
to see a much higher value from the last position, you bought it during its peak.

Thank you for the advice, a good idea for Hold and Staking, I have also done staking almost 6 months ago when the price is still around $ 1.5, of course the choice is difficult to sell with loss conditions, but I am optimistic that matic will soon rise and can reach 2 digits in 2 years.
What about trading? Lending, gambling and others. I know there's still more crypto activities out there which could help us multiply our crypto coins. You can try them sometimes if you haven't yet and you will be surprise on how fast you can gain a return.

There is no need for you to wait for a very long time only to earn a profit through hodling and staking but I wonder why did you sell at a loss? Did you urgently need a money last time? If yes then I think that reason is valid. That is better than borrowing money. Cryptos are still a money anyway so we should use it that way and there is no point if we will just buy and hodl them forever.
1510  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Accepting Bitcoin for a business on: September 23, 2022, 06:36:41 PM
If I will refer to one of the known merchants here in our place, they accept crypto but not actually holding it.

They are using a service that instantly converts Bitcoin into fiat. That third-party exchanger is a crypto-service.

In short, crypto is just an additional payment method but the company is still getting the converted fiat value of it upon a successful transaction.
This will just give the customers an additional access of paying with cryptocurrency and the service provider receive it in the form of fiat. It won't benefit in any means for the receiver. To profit out of it, the service provider needs to find ways of accumulating the profit in the form of cryptocurrency.
I was going to say the same thing as @harizen said. 3rd party services which offers a crypto/fiat solutions are not new but I think there are lots of them now, now that crypto is becoming a mainstream. That is because many merchants are also trying to add cryptos as one of the payment methods. Using a crypto doesn't always mean that we will hodl it because crypto's original purpose is actually a currency/money. Those who hodl a crypto are different and they are called hodlers/investors.

Merchants can add some fees on their services if needed only to use those 3rd party services and as a costumer I think they won't complain with that because in return of it is that they are now using their cryptos to avail their favorite services.
1511  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🚀 WINZ.IO 🚀 WELCOME BONUS: 300 FREE SPINS 🎁 $50K MINING ADVENTURE ⛰️ on: September 22, 2022, 09:52:30 PM
A bonus without wagering requirement? it must be joke since there's no way any casinos want to give free money to their gamblers because their sole purpose for built casino is to get money.
Bonuses without wager requirements do not exist and it can be said to be a stupid move if a casino does this, winz.io only requires 1x wager requirement for the deposit value and this is the lowest I have ever encountered.
The wager requirement of 1x for the deposit value is used in several casinos, not only winz.io, stake, BK8 and some other casinos also apply that rule.
I've try it on stake, made a deposit without making a bet, within a certain period of time I submit a withdrawal and the result was a pending withdrawal for several hours before I finally decide to contact the support team. And the result was as I expected they ask me to make a few bets before submit to withdraw my funds
Among the 3 casinos that you have mentioned, I have tried playing in stake so far and as far as I can remember, they don't have welcome bonuses if you sign up on their website directly but maybe there are if you sign up using the link that is found in gambling review sites. The only bonus that I got on them are just reload, rakeback, weekly/monthly and all of them don't need any wager requirements.

There is a 1x wager requirement if you want to tip someone else or if you want to withdraw the money immediately right after you deposit, I think that is for them to prevent money launderers but it's great if winz.io has a deposit bonus and has 1x wager only. That sounds very easy.
1512  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: LUNA PUMP on: September 22, 2022, 05:53:32 PM
On this news, the price of the coin fell again.
Burn statistics
https://luncpenguins.com/
If the burning continues as planned, then most hodlers are hoping for a rise in the coin, but most are always wrong.
Since when they put this? Just recently? It's crazy that they allowed people to buy and sell for a long time before they put a warning like this. Even binance themselves do also want to earn some nice money out of the luna hype but it's still nice that they came up with this warning even if it's a little late already.

This should scare some but not most of the greedy investors and traders of course, most especially if the burning mechanism is continued. I know many of them like the fact when the coin has a burning feature because they think this is the main responsible for the coins value to pump hard but they disregard other factors. That's their biggest mistake there.

Chelsea ERA is kinda gone in my opinion. Sure ,they still have great players in the squad but they don't perform well and I don't see any great signs for them and I'm sure in winter and next summer , a lot of them will be leaving the team. Regarding coaches , you are 100% right , because right now , there are no great coaches available or at least top managers to be available and Tuchel might be join Juventus soon or Bayern...there are hard rumors from both of the clubs.
I agreed about Chelsea ERA because change of coach was completely wrong decision by management Tuchel was doing good job he deserves some more time as now having quality players it's going to be good in just few matches, but suddenly change of coach is having big impact on all squad mentality and many players are feeling uncomfortable which is not good signal for them and their performance in Premier League and Champions League.
 
If management looking for new high profile coach it's not easy in current situation with all already busy and have no enough desire for Chelsea and surely Tuchel is also going to be had job in next few weeks with Juventus and Bayern Munich both are having not good time and can hire him but change of management at Chelsea already kill this club which was doing amazing job under Russian owner.

Back then in primary school, my teacher will always sing to us that "children are the leaders of tomorrow". If children are the leaders of tomorrow I believe they are meant to be taught the right thing that will help their future. Since those student are getting  to learn Bitcoin at their age, is really going to do them good.
You are fabulous 🤩 OP, and happy birthday to you.
What a cool teacher you have. I think your teacher does that only to remind you guys that you hold the future and that should help you do well in your class. Children are still young so they need to be taught the right thing because if wrong things are being taught to them, they will adopt it until they grow older but I think it's always not too late too change even if you are already old.

There is no age requirements for getting involved in bitcoin but I think there are more benefits if you got involved in it in an earlier time so it's important to have btc as a subject in schools so that kids can get aware with it and they can also start saving btc as early as possible.
1515  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: WHEN WAS YOUR WORST MOMENT AND CHALLENGE WITH BITCOIN ? on: September 21, 2022, 07:29:30 PM
There already have been quite a few bad moments with bitcoins so far that made me question my strategy with crypto currencies. First of all was a big step for me to decide and only deal with Bitcoins back in 2016 for my CSGO skin trading business. I was buying and selling a lot of knives back in the days and bitcoin was a good and fast way to cash out and deposit new money. By using Bitcoins I could buy skins my cheaper than the official steam prices and then use the real prices to trade for more favourable skins. When I took a break from CSGO I also sold all my bitcoins and stopped using crypto currencies all together.
I had something similar, there was a website where you could sell gaming stuff, and I sold accounts, not counter strike, it was an online mmorpg where I sold my character and I earned bitcoins with it, this was so long ago that I got a few bitcoins in return, but it was easy step and you could sell to anyone in the whole world which made it great for me, I disliked using paypal for the fact that buyer could have asked for his money back, and I would be out both my account and my money, so I used bitcoin instead. Since those days I have been here, for nearly 10 years and so far it has nothing but best for me, had some down days, but overall it has been amazing.
1516  Other / Politics & Society / Re: The economic danger of China and Taiwan war on: September 21, 2022, 02:58:49 PM
The economic effects of a conflict between China and Taiwan are shown by the following example. If a conflict ever breaks out, we already know that the US will really lose out to China in the semiconductor business. As no trade will happen. This will have a significant impact on Western domestic markets, causing previously unanticipated increases in inflation and shortages.
That is the result of USA not investing in the right places. They could build 10 chip factories with just one years worth of military budget, they have like 800 billion per year, which means 80 billion is more than enough to not only build the factory, but get the resources and even hire the most famous people who could.

It may not be working perfectly right now, because it takes years to develop great stuff, but they could at least give it a start. What I do not understand is that some stuff are obvious and it is going to happen, but every nation gets into them too late, why not get ready beforehand, get ready when the tech is available, so you would be doing fine when the time comes.

Real Madrid are just as good as last season. They drop few stitches. We had a hard time a few times in the 1st half, but the difference in strength in the 2nd half was significant again. And on top of that, Real Madrid have Benzema at their disposal, but on the other hand, Lewandowsky now plays for Barcelona. Then we could cross them off against each other. In principle, Real Madrid individually does not have a much stronger team, but they radiate more maturity. Barcelona has many young players like Gavi. Good players, but they still have a few things to learn. It will come down to details this season who will be champion. I don't even consider Atletico Madrid an outsider anymore.
Yes, Real Madrid performance are very good in this season that made many people to believed that they will still go far in this season like the way they did last season. I don't think, Real Madrid will Miss this La Liga league title this season because their strikers and midfielders are working hard to ensure they achieve victory from every match just to keep the winning going until they win the title. Many things has changed positively from Barcelona in this season since their coach brought in Lewandowski into the team things are working well.
Ancelotti factor is showing his best at the current Real Madrid performance with no big star but still they are doing amazing job in this season like they have done in last season with their double and most chance it's going to be very tough for others to face them in race of title which is surely going to be between two big clubs like Barcelona and Real Madrid because currently no other team is capable of giving them good challenge for title race with their quality and performance specially Sevilla and Atlético Madrid both are having decline in performance.

Real Madrid youths are having good skills which are helping them for keeping momentum and not allowing opponents to have anything special against them but still match between these two big giants will give clear picture who is going to win this season as Barcelona is also having few quality players.

If they're truly keen about Bitcoin as a concept, why are they put off by creating a wallet for it? If they really appreciate Bitcoin's concept then they should have understood that Bitcoin is about decentralization and that owning private keys.

Perhaps they're really not keen on Bitcoin as a concept but Bitcoin as an asset. Perhaps instead of getting convinced of the technology of Bitcoin, they're probably convinced of the price growth potential of Bitcoin.

It is their choice, they could invest in companies that are exposed to Bitcoin or that has Bitcoin in their balance sheets or they could simply buy Bitcoin and truly participate in its movement.
Maybe they think it's too hassle or hard to create a btc wallet but if they don't have one then how can they obtain a btc? Maybe they can store btc on some online sites like crypto exchange? But we know that it's pretty risky although I think many cex have the option to transfer your fund in some supported banks.

Maybe they prefer that way of receiving their profits through btc. They can buy or invest on some companies like MicroStrategy as they are known to also invest in btc but I think the income that we will be getting isn't going to be full anymore because I think you need to pay some fees when availing these kind of services, so it's always better to invest on our own.

dumping at a high of 25% as this time of posting? i believe that if you are truly willing to invest in ethereum then this is the perfect timing because that 25% is really a promising profit in the coming days after the merging effect drops.

Buy today , or wait forever this is what we must understand in season like this.
25% dump is a lot so yes this is a good time to buy eth now. I think this dump is much worse than the last time right? and if many people buy it that time then why not today? I only feel sad to those who expect that eth value will pump hard right after the merge. I bet they are full of disappointment right now but this shouldn't end by selling their eth. I know that the future of eth is still bright because man this is the second big crypto next to bitcoin and this is the foundation of all altcoins and tokens.

actually the decision is yours, but in my opinion, wait for the price to drop because if we buy at a high price, of course later we will not get the maximum profit, because in my opinion if you want to buy you have to wait for a good moment, so in my opinion don't be in a hurry when you buy, so you have to be patient when you buy and I speak this according to my experience.
I think there's no such thing as maximum profit on here because we don't know if at what value is the final bottom of every coin. The OP can start buying little by little if he thinks there are more dumps to come.

Most people just aim to have fun by doing online gambling and some online games. Online gambling such as slot games and several other gambling games. and some of them also use online gambling games to get profits through online gambling games. Online gambling that is getting easier to be accessed by anyone certainly has negative effects that are not good, they will be addicted and continue to play. which at first was just for entertainment, but after getting addicted they spent some of their money on gambling. this will make them crushed and unable to stop.
I thought they are only used to have fun so why will they get addicted? I think the obsession for money are the ones who are truly addicting because when you have money you can do almost anything and this can make a person more happier but a continuously playing for fun will get you being bored later on and you will quit on it for a while in order to do something else.

There are ads that we see online. They are like a gambling game but totally free to play but the best part of them is that you can earn some money by playing. I think that is because these games have ads inside them. Many people are hook on them right now to earn additional income without taking a risk.
