Anyone bet on the Jazz vs Wizards?

I did go with the Wizards again live betting, (Wizards still has the lead).



2 for 2 for me betting on the underdog Wizards in their last 2 games. So I guess I will still bet on them whoever their next opponent is.

What is the reason of being bearish as the official Bitcoin account ? Who is trolling and has access to this account ?

https://twitter.com/Bitcoin/status/1591513857721524224

Nobody knows who is the actual owner of the @Bitcoin account as of today.

But according to Roger Ver,



https://twitter.com/rogerkver/status/983379544387153920

and then that account get suspended,



https://twitter.com/SatoshiLite/status/982879415532011520

And so the history of that account has been pass on to different personalities, could be BCH and BSV proponent or any others that goes against Bitcoin. Heck it even had paid advertisement in the past.

So what I'm saying is that don't take the account seriously.
1583  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Anybody knows why Band was pumping ? on: November 12, 2022, 08:28:34 PM
So this is one of the few tokens that seems to be in a hurry to get back up. Of course the market will push it down like it is doing right now, but it will bounce right back up as soon as Ethereum or Bitcoin hint an upward move. I've compared it's behaviour with other "highly volatile" tokens like Solana and Helium and Band manages to outperform these most of the time.
So why is this happening ? I don't see LINK or other Oracle projects pumping ? Or is it because people think BAND could be the next Matic or Quant ? I personally don't think so, but I got me a solid position in it  because I see it as a strong project with at least 10X potential.

It doesn't mean that Band and others are outperforming Ethereum they are solid coins.

Of course because they are very cheap, it can be bought X times by investors and push the price, but you have to understand that this kind of pump are not sustainable, as it's obvious a pump and dump scheme.

So don't be surprises that there are several individuals who are doing this for obvious reasons, to make money out of those newbies in the market.

^^ Congrats mate, my live betting didn't turn out good, I bet on the Denver to at least have a +4.5.

And I think it was still on track till the start of the 4th quarter. But then the Boston Celtics suddenly went on the rampage with still 10 minutes in the game in the 4th. Jokic and the Nuggets wasn't able to respond. I saw that the Suns were upset by the Magic, tough match for Phoenix.

If you haven't accepted this and either exited the space or are working on finding the next big project; there is nothing I can do to help you.

Most of the time the utility is party pictures from an exotic island. Cocktails and all.

I think that's what you call hype in this market, lest we forget, we have ICO in the beginning in 2017, then IEO and everything in between that and now we are in NFT. So maybe when there is a next hype in the market, all of this will be replace and perhaps do some rug pulls as well.

Metaverse for one is one hype as well, but as we can see, even Facebook or Meta can't developed a working project even though they already spend billions and billions resulting to lay off of their employees just to cut cost and everything.
1586  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: November 11, 2022, 07:36:21 AM
....
Do you think  Clarkson and Markkanen and be an all star? or just one of them?
I like how the Jazz are performing this season so far but I would have to say no at this point. This would be the first time that they are the main guys in a team if I'm not mistaken so there's more to prove as far as all-star is concerned.

........

Lebron will be missing the game against the Kings. Their opponent isn't doing well either but I don't expect them to win without their best player so it's a likely 2-10 standing later hehe. Handicap anyone - Lakers +5.5 or Kings -5.5?

Looking at paper, without Lebron, I guess Kings -5.5 will be an easy bet for us. Lakers is in disarray right now, and they are only good in the first 2 quarters.

While the Kings mentality is very different right now, although they are like 4-6, majority of their loses are close games and less than 10 points if I'm not mistaken. And they didn't get the benefit of the calls. And with that, I will have to go with the Kings in this game.
1587  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: November 11, 2022, 07:09:40 AM
Not a huge oddt, but I put it live betting with decent amount of money between the Kings and Cavs



At least I'm back in winning, I wanted to bet on other matches, but I just stick to this one and lucky me I hit it with still 1 minute on the game.

I thought that it will go to OT, but the Kings close them out really fast with good defense on Mitchell and Garland.

Good job mate, you are lucky with that pick but me, I would not take a live bet for 1.75 odds, unless I know too well that I will win which is impossible, haha.. but that is gambling, just go with your guts and most of the time you'll win.  Smiley

I just listen to my guts during the half time, looking at the scores, and when the 3rd quarter started, I saw that they are still in a high scoring game, so most likely I just got lucky in that game.



Same here, it was a live bet, I wanted to bet on the Wizards after the halftime, but just decided on the conservative +5.5 with a good to high bet on them.

Wasn't able to see the game though, but when I check the score, was glad to see the Wizards winning and Kuzma having a good game.

I will say that you don't need to wait 20 years, at least a good hedge in crypto is one full cycle, i.e. bears/bulls.

And with that you can truly see how your investments goes for you, if you made good money already or you will have to wait for another 4 years. Of course it's better if you can hold for 20 years, but again, in crypto that is too long already.

And this is still the best time, the price just hit a all time low and so crypto is very cheap and we can buy and accumulate tons and wait for the next bull run in 2024-2025 to profits.
1590  Economy / Gambling / Re: Bet999.io - The global leader in crypto gambling! on: November 10, 2022, 10:51:51 AM
It's subjective though, so I doubt that a new casino will suddenly became the "global leader in crypto gambling". But I guess the more the merrier, we have options again. I do hope though that you will stay in the crypto world, I mean we have seen some casinos popping up and then disappearing because of scams accusations or any other issues.

And for sure, you know that this is very competitive industry because everyone wanted to a piece of that billion dollar floating around this market.

Any chase though that you are going to have signature campaigns to promote your new site here?

And when you think that you already seen the worst in your life with your recent divorce with your super model wife, Tom Brady and Giselle probably is two of the biggest loser in the FTX collapse.

Not sure how they got themselves involved and invested most of their money, but now it's too late.

Thank you for the answers, everyone. I think it is more unpredictable this season. Just looking at the rankings will make you realize it.
Let's see in 10 more games if this will continue.
Rough couple of days.  Gonna take some road teams tonight.  I'm gonna ride the Bucks.  They are giving 7.5 but I don't see them slowing down.  Also taking Memphis on the road as well.  They are giving 6.5

Good luck to everyone and enjoy the games tonight.
That's for tonight's game using forum time.  Wink
I like it. After the Bucks' first loss, they will want to get back on track to win more games.
Bucks -6.5 should be enough as Giannis is probable and Jrue Holiday is doubtful to play against the Thunder.

We have 13 games.
Another game where the Jazz is the underdog and this time it's against the Hawks. I will take the Jazz ML. Checked the injury reports, and only Vanderbilt is listed as questionable.

Orlando Magic vs Dallas Mavericks - Mavs -6.5 Christian Wood out.

Tail you with this one, maybe another 40 point night for Luka as I don't think that anyone from the Magic can guard him in this game. They will have to double or triple team him, but he is good as well at finding his open team mates and they are hitting good % if I'm not mistaken.

Another game that I'm looking is the Hawks vs the Jazz.

Might do some in game bets though, I wanted to see who is out and not going to play in this game from either team.
1594  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Fear not, and be bold to move on. on: November 09, 2022, 10:47:33 AM
Yeah, I guess it's simply fear for newbies, but don't forget that everyone started from 0 and from scratch and we know that feeling.

It's just how we really overcome this supposedly fear and then move forward in crypto. As the saying goes, go down 9 times, go up ten times. That's sum it up, if we lose in our trading, then we shouldn't be deter and come back strong in the next. Don't let this whole "losing" discourage us, but let that be a lesson for us not to repeat the same mistakes and that will make us a good trader and investor or speculator in this market.
1595  Economy / Speculation / Re: what caused the bitcoin price to drop today? on: November 09, 2022, 10:26:25 AM
today i saw bitcoin price going down, and i want to ask everyone, what caused bitcoin to go down? Is it because the world economy is in decline or not?

It's that another drama has taken the market for another bad turn, similar to Luna.

This time it was FTX, weeks prior many have called that this exchanges and it's token are going to fall and collapses and that what happen here. So everyone panics again and sell whether it is bitcoin or altcoins.

But CZ comes to the rescue before it liquidates everything and buy it and now we have this new term introduces by CZ, "Proof-of-Reserves". Sort of doing audits for exchanges if they still have the money to cover for everything.
1596  Economy / Scam Accusations / [Warning]: Laplas, new clipboard malware on: November 09, 2022, 10:00:40 AM
There is a new clipboard malware dubbed LAPLAS and it target cryptocurrency users.

And it is being drop through what researchers called SmokeLoader, wherein the victims are being distributed through email campaigns vs via malicious documents such as Word/PDF documents. So that is the first red flag, if you see emails coming from unknown sources, delete it immediately.

And the new Laplas clipper:

Quote
Clipper is a family of malicious programs that targets cryptocurrency users. This malware hijacks a cryptocurrency transaction by swapping a victim’s wallet address with the wallet address owned by TAs. When a user tries to make a payment from their cryptocurrency account, it redirects the transaction to TAs account instead of their original recipient. Clipper malware performs this swap by monitoring the clipboard of the victim’s system, where copied data is stored. Whenever the user copies data, the clipper verifies if the clipboard data contains any cryptocurrency wallet addresses. If found, the malware replaces it with the TAs wallet address, resulting in the victim’s financial loss.

Laplas is new clipper malware that generates a wallet address similar to the victim’s wallet address. The victim will not notice the difference in the address, which significantly increases the chances of successful clipper activity.

and the target cryptos are:



And what makes it dangerous is that this Clipboard malware has the capability to used pre or post fix, so

 it's really hard for us if we are not going to double or triple check the address that we are going to send our cryptos.

1597  Economy / Speculation / Re: Cryptocurrency is silent why? on: November 06, 2022, 01:06:14 AM
I think the best time to buy is now because the price is still cheap, if the market is bear, then we get a higher price, it's better to buy immediately so that we have a chance to profit, rest assured that a bull run will occur soon and the best chance to get a low price.
It seems you want to say that buying in bearish conditions is better because all cryptocurrency prices are at low levels. Yes, it's not wrong, but why are there still people who don't dare to buy when bears occur in the market and some even prefer to exchange their assets into stable cryptocurrencies rather than stick with existing coins.
[/quote

That's the psyche tough, it's human nature to be fearful when the market is in red or at least going down, from $69k to $20k, who wouldn't be afraid of that?

But that's what separate a smart investors from just average one. Smart investors knows when to buy, while those average one tend to buy when the price is going up and so how can then make money, huge money from the market? So just be wise and you will be good here in the long haul.
1598  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have your winnings lured someone into gambling ? on: November 06, 2022, 12:29:10 AM
As a gambler we see winning big as success is gambling, do you share and celebrate your winning story with friends ?

Not every time, maybe a few close friends and that's it. Maybe just a couple of beers and story telling, that's it.

Have your winning story or celebration lured someone you know into gambling because he wants to win big like you

This I don't know, maybe they go and play online by themselves and maybe win but didn't tell me. But it doesn't matter though, it's their business and their money anyways.

Have you ever taught or predicted a game for someone which turn out to be a win,how big was it ?

I guess that is easy, specially in sports betting, like in your favorite sports and share it with your friends. If they win big then good for them.
1599  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: WOW, WHY AM I SO HAPPY 😍 on: November 05, 2022, 07:25:12 AM
The bull run is here. ALTCOINS are going to blow up soon.. Happy to see some of my alts I bought on FAMEEX are just pumping. Matic and optimism just making me smile this morning

May I just advice not to celebrate too early, we are not yet in the bull run. Maybe we are just waking up this last quarter or at last this last 2 months. But we are still a long way to go before we can actually see what a real bull run is.

I'm not familiar with the coins you are shilling, but regardless, you just need to be very careful.

And if you think you have made a lot of money (it looks you are before you seems to be very happy), then it's better to take your profit and not to be greedy and wait for more, in my opinion.
1600  Economy / Gambling / Re: Do you visit the casino while travelling? on: November 05, 2022, 06:41:37 AM
I've never visited a casino while traveling. All I do when I travel is relax and watch the beauty of nature. And in a casino I can't relax and enjoy myself. If you go somewhere, take a break from gambling or do something you've wanted to do for a long time.

It depends on what is work for you, and what is relaxation. For example, for people collecting tea leaves from mountain hills and  thus watching the beauty of nature every day from morning till evening, for such people visiting a casino would be a relaxation. And watching the beauty of nature again during their time off, no, that would be definitely not the best time passing for them. But if you work in a casino, or you gamble every day on various online platforms, then I understand,  it's better for you to stay away from those places while on vacation.
Everything is relative, what it is a source for relaxation for someone could be a source of stress for another person or vice versa, in my case I like games in which I have to think like poker or blackjack, but for someone else this can be exhausting and they will prefer instead games like roulette or dice in which everything is up to their luck, and at least for me those kind of games are on the boring side as there is not much for me to do or think.

I guess if you travel with your friends and families, of course you want to relax and have some fun, that is the foremost reason why you travel in the first place. But I guess you might still find time to visit the biggest casino in that country that you are traveling and visiting.

At least get the priceless experience and you can live to tell the tale to your fellow gambling friends that you play in this big casino. And that is what I'm going to do if I will travel again in the near future.
