Hopefully it's like that and maybe in the future there will be even more good projects,
we must continue to see the progress of these projects,
the success or failure of a project certainly cannot be separated from the team and let's see what will happen later.

1000x happening on a project's token def doesn't depend on whether the progress of the project is good or if the team is good or if the project itself is really great.  It all depends on if the project has a dog logo, if the project has a low enough market cap, and if it's fairly new.  I think a coin or a token will get a better chance to hit 1000x if it was issued after 2021. 

If it's a new coin accumulated during the lull of the bear market, chances are distribution of the said coin will be during the bull market.  And if it's not 1000x, fine...  But you know you'll win some anyway.

Upcoming UFC event Imavov vs Gastelum should be interesting to watch, and I don't mean just main event.
Starting from prelims we can see Sijara Eubanks and Priscila Cachoeira, and I would starting watching early.
There is Umar Nurmagomedov with his perfect 15-0 record against Raoni Barcelos, and I think we are going to see a lot of early fight finishes.
I am not sure about main event outcome yet but odds on Nassourdine Imavov are not bad at all.

Depends on which Gastelum are we getting this coming weekend.  If somehow he found the fountain of youth and comes out fighting like he did vs Adesanya, he'd easily be a 2 to 1 favorite imho.  But as we know it's most likely not gonna be the Gastelum of old coming out, I guess 1.50 for Imavov is ok.  I wouldn't bet it tho...  I prolly would starting around 1.70.  Grin  And yes, I know it's too much to ask.  But I think that's a fair price if in case Gastelum of old does show up.

Anyway here's the Multi Master.  Enjoy...

What I noticed about sports pickers is that they find exploit any discrepancies in the odds being offered by bookmakers. Making them really good at what they do and a bit of luck of course. Hope someone wilk share methods of doing so.

I think that's another thing, it's called no risk betting because they are using arbitrage betting taking advantage on odds differences of different bookies. I think what OP would like to know is on how to win in sports, like your win rate should be over 52% to be profitable.

I read in some forums asking the similar question, some said that 52% is the key and with a good bankroll management, it's possible to be profitable.

It's 52.4% win percentage you're decent, around 55% you're doing great, around 60% over a decent sample you're a sports betting god. 

But here's the thing, to make a living out of sports betting, you gotta have a large enough bankroll.  That's why when somebody asks they want to make 100k in betting sports in a year, how do they do it?  The answer is they should have a 100k bankroll to win 100k.  Grin 

And by bankroll, it's the money used just for betting.  If anybody wants to bet sports or play poker for a living, you gotta have at least 6 months worth of living expenses in your bank account separated from your bankroll.

In my opinion "The bottom has already been passed, but there will be no growth this year", that seems true considered the current state of the economy. The buying trend is expected to increase even more during 2023 as the halving cycle approaches, but I don't believe it will make a big impact on increasing the price. Of course the hopes are better, but I can't ignore the current state of the economy which has ruined many plans.

Yup.  BTC hasn't really had two consecutive red yearly candles since it started trading more than 10 years ago.  And as we're mostly looking for trends to take some profit from the market, I don't think the yearly trend will change right now and there's no way to know what's gonna happen until after the fact.  What we could do now is we just go with the flow and adjust when something changes.  

And I don't think we should put too much stock in 'the state of the economy' too much anymore.  It'll just make you gun shy and prevent you from taking on good spots to buy.
1749  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Looking for the Next Great 1000x on: January 09, 2023, 03:52:46 PM
Having this obsession with high and very big amounts of returns will not make you rich, it will make you poor for sure.




It's for the lulz and a gamble based on 'the criteria'.  Lolol.  It's not an obession.  And no, it's not gonna make anybody poor if you just gamble small and put around 200 bucks like I did.  It's more like an experiment in getting lucky more than anything else.  As 1000x of 200 bucks is 200k, I think I'll do something in games and rounds if I ever make the 1000x pipe dream.  Cheesy

And here's why I'm hesitant in sharing which project exactly is my bet for the next 1000x.  I'm stuck...  Lmao.  It's down more than 50% from where I bought it from.  But in my defense from my own stupidity, if you're chasing these 1000x gains and in these kinds of projects, this is bound to happen.  They could go up or down by a large percentage in any given week or month.  So brace yourselves.

It could be a good spot to buy tho.  Dunno..  I might if I win my parlays in the EPL and Bellator vs Rizin this weekend.  Cheesy


Its Ok mate at least there are also others that goes down with your investment for a while  Grin

x1000 seems to be difficult to predict but of course if waiting for long term there are also opportunity  Grin

and also I know that you can carry waiting as you have been in this market for long years though best not to seek for x1000 but be enough to reach x10-100.

It's just something to have fun and get lucky with...  Kinda like those outrights bets in sports betting.  

Anyway, I'll post a new chart if it's starting to look better.  Lmao.  It's embarassing to show now.  Cheesy Cheesy

Gastelum haven't fight for around one and half a year,



At this point in his career I think it's better for him to take a tad longer breaks than what he was doing in the past.  Even though he's just 31, if you base it on 'fight age' he's prolly like over 40 years old.  He's been through a lot in his career and has been an a lot of tough matches.  He's had tough matches going up during his title run and he's had tough matches after the title run when he lost against Adesanya.

I will tell you this tho..  I think he'll retire if he loses vs Imavov.
1751  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sportsbet.io's English Premier League Football Pool Discussion Thread on: January 09, 2023, 03:10:45 PM



Newcastle's lost to S. Wednesday... This is insane; I guess Eddie Howe underestimated the Wednesday and was punished for it. Grin

That's the thing with some clubs.  In their 'off days' they tend to take it easy and play at the level of their competition.  They'll def learn from it, move on and do better next time.  But I didn't watch the match tho.  I did hear some stuff about the ref blatantly favoring Newcastle the whole match and still got a loss against a lower tier club.  Lol.

But yeah, I'm glad that's over and done with so we get to watch the real thing next weekend.  It's the Manchester derby ladies and gents.  Smiley  And the North London derby the next day!
1752  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: January 09, 2023, 02:33:29 PM
Can we move on from that alcoholic misbehavior to professional fighting? Nothing new happened. It is so expected that when you alcohol enters your blood and brain, you might behave inappropriate. Such things (violence due to alcohol) happen all over the world. Everyone knows that it is bad, but keep on doing same all over again.

Lets better focus on Imavov vs Gastelum event. Kelvin Gastelum - I think this guy is about to be released from UFC. Just look at his record 5 losses in lat 6 fights. Not a very successful record since 2016. Compared to Imavov record, Gastelum is much weaker.

Yup, it's no fun whining about something we can't do nothing about...  Lol.  Let's just move on to the next event and share each other's thoughts on each match and the event overall.  Like Gastelum vs Imavov, at first glance I'd think Gastelum is on his way out but really now, he's a vet he lost only vs the top guys at 185.  Check out his record in Tapology...

https://www.tapology.com/fightcenter/fighters/41355-kelvin-gastelum

Adesanya, Till, Hermansson, Whittaker and Cannonier are all top guys.

That match up could be closer than what the lines suggest.  I'd still put Imavov in my lottery ticket but he'll be at the third row at most.

I was planning on making a 2023 BTC price speculation thread but it looks like there already more than a couple.  Lol.  I'll post here as I think it's the best of them.

Here's the thing...  When has BTC ever had two consecutive red yearly candles?

I'll leave this right here.

No point searching for x100 or x1000 as they will be only be created/launched in the next bull market. Look at all those token that did well in last bull run, they are fairly new coins in the market while some that keep on building during last bear market did not perform well. Just keep an eye on what’s happening in the next bull run.  Wink Wink Wink Wink
No point?  I don't think so...  There's always a point.  And the point in this case is to gamble in these little sh*ts while they're low and have fun watching them rise when things start coming around and the market goes in a full blown bull mode.  Lol.

And that's not the best part...  The most hilarious part in these things is they pump higher than a lot of those projects that take themselves seriously.  Grin  Again, it's all based in a premise written in the OP and there's also the Elon factor to think about.  Once that guy starts yapping in Twitter about anything doge related, expect these things to pump.  

Anyway, drop your favorite projects that meet the criteria itt and let's see them.  Wink
Dunno if I already saw a coin who pumps x100 to x1000 during a bearish market. So far those that I saw have only pump under x100. It's just hard for them to do it because the confidence of people are still low and there are less hypes around as compare to when the market is on bullish mode because the mood of the people are also positive.

Coins with big potential aren't only created during the bull run and its also wrong to invest on a coin when its pumping especially if it's only a meme coin or similar so yeah, there is a point of looking for them and investing on them now. Meme coins and alike may pump more but they can't sustain it unlike to a serious project so we should be careful at them.

But when is the best time to look for the next great 1000x if not during a bear market, hmmm?  Wink  Most of the coins that have the potential for 1000x will have already risen during a bull market, making us miss some of the move.  It's best to buy into them while nobody is looking.  So...  How do we find them is the question.  What should be the criteria?  I already have mine but if you have something to add, plesse share.

And it's not about if they could sustain their high value.  We shouldn't care.  Even BTC and all of the other alts couldn't sustain their value.  We're here to place our bets then cash out at the heights of the bull market.  The next great 1000x for the lulz.  Cheesy

I'd like to see Jake Paul fight a couple of guys with a good wrestling background first before these big money events.  Wrestling is usually a problem when fighters with a primary striking base enter MMA.
Jake Paul has an amateur wrestling background and then he made his transition to boxing, so he has the basics regarding take down defense unlike pure strikers who added wrestling at a later part of their career.

Ah...  Then that makes his transition to MMA a lot easier.  On top of my head UFC fighters Cody Durden and Jonathan Pearce both have high school wrestling backgrounds and they've been holding their own.  Durden is so so but Jonathan Pearce could be a top 5 guy sooner or later.

All in all, I'm excited for Jake Paul's first MMA match.  I'll take a shot on whoever is the underdog.  Grin  If it's Jake Paul, books prolly doesn't rate his wrestling background high which could be a mistake and if it's the other guy then books could be overestimating Jake Paul's chances if that makes any sense.  Lol.  There's just a lot of unknowns.
1756  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: January 07, 2023, 01:43:06 PM
^  That's if the other organizations are willing to match or pay more than what the UFC is paying their fighters for.  I couldn't imagine Bellator or the PFL give somebody like Ngannou a more lucrative contract without breaking the bank which could be a bad decision as nobody really gives af about Bellator compared to the UFC.  They're no. 1 for a reason.

But the clause will be good for MMA for sure and the fighters.  It could even make those guys from Bellator like AJ McKee have an easier time transitioning to the UFC without a lot of contract disputes.

Btw Jake Paul is teasing Nate Diaz. He offers Nate a boxing fight, then, after 6 months, a fighter under MMA rules. If Nate agrees, he might get a good purse, as well as this would be a nice slap (slap lol) on Dana White if Jake wins. Another UFC fighter get beaten by YouTuber. However, Nate has recently posted a RIZIN picture in his twitter. I wonder what would that mean? Just teasing or planning to sign a contract?

Before Anderson Silva, Nate Diaz might have considered taking that fight.  But after Anderson Silva, no...  Nate Diaz ain't signing on the dotted line.  Jake Paul is physically bigger and stronger too.  I don't think he could go down to 170, Nate Diaz's current ideal fighting weight, without draining himself.

They can always make one more cross promotion event, like it happened on December 31 with Rizin and Bellator.
I am sure that PFL is going to agree on something similar if Nate signs for Rizin and Jake Paul is in PFL.
We just need UFC and ONE Championship to start doing this, and we can have MMA World League soon Smiley

^  Yup.  I actually have high regard for Eddie Howe and I actually said I fancy him managing a club like Arsenal or a club in the same tier as Arsenal.  I think it was 3 - 4 years ago.  Some time before covid. 

So yeah..  Just amazed how he's evolved.  With Bournemouth score lines would usually be 3 - 2, 2 - 1, mostly over 2.5 goals matches.  With Newcastle, the defense is just solid.  And with that oiler money backing the club, they're gonna be a force that's gonna be hard to deal with.

With only a few signings, the team already appears to be balanced and ready to compete for top four and six at the end of the season; when the oil money is put to use, they may well turn into title contenders next season; they have the resources and a good coach who plays beautiful attacking football. From being the poorest-funded squad in 20 years to one of the wealthiest in the world. How quickly time passes. Cool

But would love to see it.  It's been a while since an English Manager won the league.

never won one. i don't think so

Oh right!  No English manager has won the title in the Premier League era...  So we have two in the top flight that could get a chance.  Graham Potter and Eddie Howe.  I think both have the capability but they'll need a decent squad and the timing like how Arteta at Arsenal is doing right now.  He needed some mishaps from City to get 5 points ahead.  I don't think it could happen s couple of years ago.

As for Graham Potter and Chelsea, does anybody think Chelsea would've fared better if they just stuck with Tuchel?

And what does City's performance say about their upcoming derby vs United?  Another low scoring affair?

Well, uncle Dana White doesn't want to slap a fighter that may retaliate so he is using his wife as a substitute, well he is a well-known person who needs to learn to control his temper just one piece of negative news about the UFC will surely suffer from that consequence
Let's be honest and say that his wife gave the first slap attack and after that he replied with his slaps, but something stinks in this whole story, and we don't know what Dana told her before slap.
Much more people are now aware of his Power Slap competition, after someone conveniently recorded that video in night club.



The whole slap incident with his wife is both funny and ironic because of his upcoming Power Slap promotion.  Lolol.  Cheesy  He prolly told his wife to slap him first so he could slap him next and show everybody how it's done.  Maybe they should make a power slap demo with Dana White.  Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy  Oh man...  The memes are gonna be hilarious.

But seriously I don't think it's over yet even tho Dana White and the UFC seem to be handling the whole thing really well...  I haven't seen a women's group or some feminism group calling for the cancellation of the UFC so that's good.  Lmao.
