We've missed Cavs seeing in the playoffs. Oops, this is for those that are quite young at heart already when James was still with them.

In a few, we're going to see their match against Celtics and let's see who's going to make their debut win together with the other match of Mavs and Thunder.

Interesting, Thunders made it but it seems that the attention of the fans aren't with them on this playoffs.

Thunders are quietly working on their own journey,  they are now on the 2nd round playing against the Mavs though I'm not a OKC fan but with their capabilities it will be a tough match for the Mavs,  SGA and those other young cores of OKC will give a hard time for Luka and Kyrie they are capable to put that tight defense and with the height and speed advantages I guess it will really be an exciting series for these two competing teams.

A battle of good game plays and chemistry that needed to blended out and execute well, let see if who among the two competing team will adjust and win this series.
The Thunders have won on their first game against the Mavs. I want the Mavs to move on but the Thunders are showing interestly enough for one to think of them and become a new fan.

They've got a good chemistry but it's still early to tell about this series for them. Let's wait for 2-3 more games but as interest as it is, we all want to see this series go up to the last to enjoy it.

I use different project because Bitcoin does not provide what I'm looking for.
For me the value comes from strong privacy, the fact that no one knows how much I have.

In Bitcoin this information, even if very careful - could leak.
You're right with that, if it's about privacy there's a stronger one from other projects that are more focused to it.

Tax office and people who work there know how much I sold, that's it.
Wow, you must be rich now but still able to explore things and trying to find some gems again through different projects.

I think gambling should be for everybody,there is no way you can stop mentally unstable people from gamble if they have their personal self phone.But If we are talking about mentally unstable people,they are of different types,some of them can relate with people,while some of them are really insane and can destroy things and even human being if they come close to where people stay.
But if you're concern to someone's welfare that you think that they shouldn't gamble, then all you have to do is to advice them that they should stop if seen to have mental problems.

So I think those ones who are not really disturbed to the extent of destroying things still have a chance of being sane in life,so those ones can gamble.But the ones who aren't really okay shouldnt be allowed to get to where human being are.
There's no problem if someone doesn't have any problem that's being shown to the others.

If they can gamble and knows what they're up to, they're aware of the surroundings and can control themselves then 100%, they can.

Good day guys!
As someone who’s new to this space and wants to start trading, what are the steps I can take to start and how much of fund do I need to start?.
Ranging from $10-$100 is enough to start and don't make huge trades. Start to learn with that amount and IMO that's going to give you the lesson you want to have as a starter, make sure that amount is affordable for you to lose.

What wallet is best for me?
What are you going to trade?

Assuming you don't have a wallet yet, you go directly to the exchange and buy there with your fiat.
165  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What can we do to make Bitcoin hit $100k on: May 07, 2024, 11:59:18 PM
...Is there anything we could do??

The only correct solution would be to buy Bitcoin at the market price and thereby move the price up. But it is impossible to do this, since all participants of the forum do not have enough capital for this. Therefore, we can only wait until institutional investors do it for us.
Yup, that's adding more demand to it.

Whether you promote it in different social media, you'd just be wasting your time if you're not helping the economy itself through buying. But are we big enough to do that? Me, even I am comparatively small, I'd say that don't underestimate the power of retailers.

If you add to the demand, that means that there's a price increase that's about to happen just as the big institutions does. We've seen this happen sometime ago in the gamestop stocks.
166  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it proper for younger ones to gamble? on: May 07, 2024, 11:24:18 PM
Wrong board, move the thread to gambling discussion.

Because nowadays the younger ones take gambling more seriously then school. Yesterday i got back home early so I decided to step out and go to a betting shop to catch some fun while gambling, I saw two teenagers gambling with their school uniforms on them.

I asked someone besides me why did they allow this boy's to come in with their uniforms and gamble, he said did they put any restrictions that younger ones are not allowed to gamble. I said but it's not normal, I replied him what if this are your kids would you be happy seeing them gambling with their uniforms on them. So what do you guys think about this situation at hand now.
Parental guidance is needed for those kids and to the owner of the betting shops, they should have age restriction before allowing someone to enter inside their premises.

As it is your concern, why not report it to the police so that they're going to be strict for allowing these students entering their betting shop?

It's been moved to off topic.

I have created it in the "off-topic", just wondered if it shouldn't be elsewhere but I think it's ok  Cool
Okay, I thought that you posted it elsewhere and then the mods moved it here. Well, it's not moving so it should be fine if it's here.

Thank you for joining discussion, It is interesting what people think about the value proposition outside FIAT.
Don't mention it, it's a discussion and hopefully others also join and say what think about it. It will also be meaningful if you say something about your own topic.
168  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 NBA Season on: May 07, 2024, 10:25:05 PM
Yeah, I've seen those history made by the Cavs and the same goes for the Magic. Considering that the Cavs have not been in the playoffs this long with so many rosters build up that they've made, they deserve to be there.
Time flies so fast. I remember the series because me and my friends had a bet on Orlando. I was in college at that time and I have a project with my group mates where the males are just watching the NBA games while the females are the ones doing the research and everything. Cheesy

Anyways, Cavs were right taking Mitchell. First year of the contract and they were already back in the playoffs. This is the Cavs second season with Spida and here they are heading in the second round playoffs. I still think Boston is too much for them though.

The guy left his contact through Telegram. But did anyone that are interested messaged him and what happened?

@OP if you are still in here, try to give some response to everyone if anyone contacted you already or you filled the position or what.
Yes, I messaged him on Telegram because I'm interested and asked if he is still looking for a social media manager. But he only saw my message and didn't respond if he is still hiring, so I assume he either found or hired the person he was looking for, the 'reply guy'.
Possibly he already found one. Since he has seen your message but didn't bothered to reply.

But if he's able to get back here and already got the reply guy, he should inform everyone and close the topic.
170  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Should trading be for the rich? on: May 07, 2024, 09:14:56 PM
Firstly the most important factor is knowledge before thinking of earning from trading . When you try to skip the process of learning and unlearning you will keep losing more. Trading can make a rich one, poor and also poor one,poorer, but can make both very rich. The risk involved is you not knowing and understanding money management while trading is more than risk in itself. Trading becomes easy when you have an edge.
Everything as you trade will be risky, it should be you that knows how to handle your finances as you trade. Yes, it's for everyone but the poor ones will have harder time in recovery compared to the rich ones.

As they are trading with experience and money, they're able to do necessary things that they can do as much as they can.

It's true that it becomes easy when you have the edge and idea of what you do and the rich almost got everything.
171  Other / Off-topic / Re: If You Could Do It All Over Again, What Major Would You Pick? on: May 07, 2024, 11:46:31 AM
If I have that chance, I'd choose those related to money, finance, economics, accounting, etc. Those kind of courses and since I am also a bitcoin investor.

That will be easier for the others to understand what Bitcoin is if there's a guy that has background in finance. But to be honest, I don't need to be like that when I'll just mostly talk about my experience as a plain investor and not a professional guy.

I thought of that because we can't blame people for thinking about a professional is more convincing than of those that don't have. Though, I don't want it to be in that manner of convincing them to invest.
172  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do not get discouraged by the current price of Bitcoin on: May 06, 2024, 11:49:52 PM
No worries at all if you know and seen how and last year has started.

Those that are worried probably bought at the new peak which is $73k.

The best is yet to come and who will be the most patient wins.
Anyone who understands how BTC operates would see no reason to get worried or panic cause the best is yet to come. It's only those who rushed to invest into it when they got little idea that would see a reason to panic when the price of Bitcoin goes down, most of them got into the market due to wrong informations they got about the halving.

 I believe the man who was complaining to his friend when the price went down would be very disappointed at himself currently if he had sold then cause few days after the price went beyond the initial price of about 57k it was when he made mention of selling his coin. Now this would teach him a lesson if he sold cause Bitcoin is currently 63k and has a potential of going higher.

 For a person holding for a long term, buying at the peak of 73k shouldn't be an issue, mostly  if the person bought bulk Bitcoin then there's no reason for panic cause there's a great possibility of Bitcoin going beyond that mark.
I agree, if you understand how BTC goes on over the period of time you'd be the most chill guy and you're relaxed and don't have to worry with how the price goes in action from time to time.

As for buying lumpsum at the new ATH, they have to give themselves extra patience because many did that in 2021 and 2017 bull runs and did sold too early.

I guess for newbies, the current price will certainly be a big issue for them because if bitcoin price will consistently drop its price, that will make their investment doomed. But if they know that being patient in the market most especially in times like this will pay a lot, then they won’t be worrying too much knowing the fact that this is just part of price correction.

Those who came with knowledge and completely understand the volatility of bitcoin will just face the market calm and chill, but for those who rush to invest without studying first, clearly that will be a disadvantage for them.
It's normal for them to react like that because they have lesser experience and stay.

But we guarantee them that if they are going to worry now, they're going to end up losing their holdings and could cause them to panic sell.
173  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think casinos can stop demanding KYC? on: May 06, 2024, 11:17:06 PM
I do not think that casinos will ask kyc if there is no intervention by the government. Because they want to make business without any interruption and not to govr headache to their customers.
Correct, if they know the most easiest way to run a casino and make everyone happy, they will do it. Why they need to follow unnecessary regulations which would make them to spend more money and effort.
They're all for the customers but because of government rules and to make their business legal, they have to obey the rules that are set on them.

During the early days, most of them are unregulated and not forcing everyone to do KYC and that's why we're all like living in peace as there's no intervention of regulators.

But today is different and we have to adopt that as well.

Hello everyone, I have been here for a few weeks/months now but I'm yet to receive "merit" so I'm just worried, please can someone tell me what I will need to do
Wrong board, and you should start with that analyzing which is the correct board to post your thread.

Why you're worried about it? Just post your stuff, what you feel, what you like and get into the topics that you are interested. Don't force yourself to post for merits.

how long I will need to be here for before I get merit and other rewards?
Don't think about that, stay because you're here until you can and we're all waiting for Bitcoin's continuous adoption as sky is the limit of it and in short, there's no definite time until when.

176  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcoin, when to buy on: May 06, 2024, 09:45:39 PM
When to buy Bitcoin is when you're financially stable
No need for you to become financially stable before you buy. As long as you're capable of buying and it's not going to affect your life economy and expenditures, you can buy when you're able.

that's exactly the preferred state to accumulate bitcoin using the best strategy ever which happens to be the DCA strategy.
I'd agree about DCA.

It's always the strategy on when and how we're going to purchase it. So, depending on your life status and as long as you're capable of doing that without having money constraints after your purchase, that's a good start.
177  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 NBA Season on: May 06, 2024, 09:01:32 PM
He deserve it.

The last time they've played against the Magic, he did everything with all his might but ain't enough. This time, he's able to push it and they're going to be against Celtics.

But who's going to be your series winner on them? I bet most are going to be with the Celtics.
The home team won every game in this series which shows you that home field advantage is a real thing. I wasn't shocked to see this series go 7, but it ends here. Boston is just too big for them. I feel like a gentleman's sweep is going to happen for the next series. Tatum and Brown are going to run all over Cleveland.
I agree.

Whoever goes to the home at the last match of the series gets the advantage and it's even more crucial this conference semi finals.

I root with what everyone thinks, the Celtics might be too much for the Cavs, not to mention the Celtics are also on a mission trying to redeem themselves not only with the Heat but the shot all the way to the finals.
Still kudos for the Cavs for winning their first series win since LeBron or their first series win since 1993 and that's without LeBron. This is already a good achievement for s team that has been struggling without that 1 player who changes everything for their franchise history.
The first LeBron left Cleveland, they were against the Orlando Magic who had prime Dwight Howard, Michael Pietrus, Rashard Lewis, & Turkoglu. These guys rain 3s against the Cavs in the entire series.  That was also the moment were the most anticipated LeBron and Kobe finals match up died.
Man, there's just too many memories from this current Cavs series win today against the Magic lol.
Yeah, I've seen those history made by the Cavs and the same goes for the Magic. Considering that the Cavs have not been in the playoffs this long with so many rosters build up that they've made, they deserve to be there.

If the price of Bitcoin didn't appreciate in FIAT, would you still hold it and for what reason.
Yes, there were even a lot of decrease through bear markets before and I did held.

How much your portfolio would change ?
Totally a lot, and I'm happy to see the increase of it in paper overtime.

At some point in the future, the price may settle down and the gains of 10x (or any x) will only be a dream.

What will be the reason for people to join in if there are no financial gains, huge fees and some other issues that come with it ? (lack of privacy, tainted coins, etc.)
The dictation of the people about its value still remains it as a premium. And we've been there for how many times and everyone stayed.

It's not a problem about tainted coins, a bitcoin = bitcoin.

This is a hypothetical question, we assume this to be true for the discussion - we're not trying to abolish it Wink

PS. I think I have chose the wrong place for this post as this is related to Bitcoin so not "Off-topic", if so - feel free to move it and sorry for the problem.
It's been moved to off topic.

What will you advise, would you advise them that at a level when they are sure of their knowledge should try to convince other people they know to give them some money as investment or convince strangers to invest in them?
Please be kind to others and don't do this if everyone is reading here and thinking of this as an option.

Don't mess around and don't bother other people that are quiet with their own lives and you'd suddenly appear on their lives and try to convince them to fund you even if you're not a good trader.

I've seen good traders that are true profitable but avoids this kind offer.
180  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Day trading or Long term on: May 06, 2024, 12:19:54 PM
Day trading is actually trading crypto coins, while keeping for long term is investment, so the former is short term and the latter is long term, so the better one depends on the preference of every individual. Although more people hodl which is investment than trading, because it's less risky compared to trading, but it can be boring just waiting for a very long time, even years to get the perfect ROI, where you can make as much in trading on a very short time, or lose everything. Trading is very technical and requires learning skills but investment doesn't need much skills to start, but it's important to hodl  reputable coins like Bitcoin.
HODLING is less risky.

We have been holding for years and we're a real testament to it and that's why we're still doing it. You trade freely and do everything that you want to do.

But as you trade, don't forget about the importance of having your own holding that you're setting for the long term because it will bag you more profit.
