Anyone know anything about Pi Network?
Will it really hit the market?
What do you think of Pi Network?

Check this:

Thanks for sharing a more detailed thread about the project, I receive a lot of messages forwarded to my FB Messenger account from my friends, but honestly, I never take time to read because I believe any project that has uses a lot of referrals could be potentially a scam project.

With the many projects in the space, we can always choose the best and I would never invest in a project that looks like a Ponzi scheme.

If it's only listed in the exchanges, we will have an idea on how big the money are coming in.

The new comments of Inoue against Casimero seemed to allude to an upcoming match, though we all know that Bob Arum.wouldn't allow this to happen yet. He would still milk the hell out of Inoue on giving him fights against other big names before matching him up with Casimero who is also hungry for wins yet still a relatively unknown fighter on some parts of this world. Inoue still is primed for matchups with the Westerners wherein money is to be made, and Casimero isn't that fighter yet.

If Inoue will choose to fight other fighters to build his name more, I think Casimero would do the same journey as being promoted by Manny Pacquiao makes him popular, of all the boxers under the MP promotion, I believe Casimero is the most successful and his style brought him to popularity.

Since Donaire is also a champ and he would be retiring soon, I think it's nice if the fans will be granted a fight with either of the 3 boxers to match up each other.
1783  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: AND YET ANOTHER FALL; A dip or A dump. on: August 20, 2021, 08:31:00 PM
At all times the market there is always a change from high to low, but for now the price of bitcoin and altcoins is increasing again and we do not know whether this will last long or vice versa, so investing is the right choice for some coins that can indeed bring profits, so use this opportunity as best as possible because we do not know what will happen in the future in the crypto world.
It's very crucial because usually when the market is bullish, it's bullish in the last quarter of the year, and here we are again, we are seeing a bullish movement that could possibly take bitcoin back to $50k. It's just a matter of time, maybe today or tomorrow, because the moment we get into $50k, another speculation would be created that will only make bitcoin bullish as people would long to see bitcoin breaking its current ATH.
1784  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: SCAMMERS NEVER GET TIRED on: August 20, 2021, 08:03:06 PM
It's basic information that crypto is full of scams, in fact, the majority of the projects are scams so we should know how to detect the signs of scams. If you receive an unsolicited email, then you should not open those emails and it might only be a phishing attempt that would steal your information. As an investor, you know what you are investing and you know what emails are legit or not.
1785  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Huge gains and still holding ? on: August 20, 2021, 03:39:07 PM
The biggest mistake anyone can do is still holding unto their altcoins when bitcoin touched 60k weeks ago and still holding strong when the fall began weeks ago, imagine someone still holding HEX token when the coin did 40x already? If you are someone like this friend I don't know what your aim is but sorry to say you are doing it wrong. Check yourself cos it's possible you are struggling with greed.

Sometimes you really need to learn how to control your greediness and learn how to let go, this is how to make a profit you don't make a profit from too much greediness it happens to me several times, the market is very dynamic it changes instantly and from time to time, you have to decide that will not make you regret later.
We have lived with greediness inside that is the reality and you are right, we have to do something not being control with such destructive emotions coz this will only lead us to make the wrong decisions which surely we regret later.

I'd experience this thing before, I miss a lot of opportunities because of greediness which I've to promise myself not doing it again but honestly, it was really hard and it can't be done so quickly. If we have come into this kind of investment where volatility affects the price, it was best not to follow our greed but to think what will be the best thing to do as holding wasn't good all the time, sometimes we got a mess.
1786  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is Bitcoin Bullish At The Moment on: August 20, 2021, 03:03:35 PM
Well, as you can see, it was pretty obvious that we are in the bullish status even at $30k still consider as bullish level. maybe we have to think it now that we are not dropping anymore below $10k as we have before. It was time to forget those prices as if the current momentum keeps ongoing, there is only a slim chance to have in the bear market again. Or, we have to consider $30k, and below is the new bear price.
1787  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Inoue vs Casimero Bantamweight Unification Fight on: August 20, 2021, 01:05:35 PM
@Kemarit. However, there are no opponents for Inoue that Bob Arum can sell the fans in bantamweight unless it is versus Nonito Donaire or Casimero. I reckon the best plan to milk Inoue would be to fight Casimero, Donaire then move up to super bantamweight.

I guess Bob Arum should understand that there are only few fighters in the division that could give a good fight to Inoue and would give the fans the real entertainment they are looking for. Casimero is waiting, so why look for another fighter when one of the best is already in front of you, if this is all about money then boxing would be boring and maybe it's time that Inoue will consider changing his promoter if he wants real success in his career.

This is the first time I saw a fighter saying that he wants an immediate fight to a challenger but suddenly things change because the promoter came in because he realize his cash cow's future might be in danger.
1788  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence Jr - August 21 on: August 20, 2021, 12:38:32 PM
That is, do you think that Ugas is so much weaker than Pacquiao that he will not be able to win one of 5 fights against him (if it were possible to conduct 5 such fights in identical conditions)? It turns out that if you're right, then the 1.26 odds on Pacquiao's victory are super beneficial and you can make an all-in for this outcome?

Suddenly people stop talking about the age of Pacquiao that he is old and he might get injured seriously. But anyway, Yordenis Ugás is not as young as Errol Spence, he is already 35 years but at that age he might still be in his prime.

This is understandable. Spence is a young undefeated boxer and a clear contender to dominate over the years. Yordenis Ugas is a slightly younger boxer than Pacquiao with an impressive record of defeats and does not claim to be a milestone in boxing history. It is possible that the upcoming fight will be easy for Pacquiao, I think if it happens this way, everyone will be disappointed.

It really depends on who's the fighter you favored to win, maybe it will be a hard fight for Pacquiao but it's ok because as long as he wins and he can give everything that he does on the training, so you can expect a good fight from him. As a fan, we only want to see is a good fight and intense fight because that gives us the entertainment value for our money.

Lots of possibilities in this fight, but all I can see now is that people are thinking it's just an easy fight for Manny Pacquiao.

We will find out soon.
1789  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: August 20, 2021, 08:28:46 AM
Anybody talking about how Cade Cunningham the NBA’s #1 draft pick is getting paid his signing bonus 100% in Bitcoin through a partnership with BlockFi? That’s nuts… I can’t believe that this sort of thing is becoming normalized in professional sports. I hope he makes a ton of cash and becomes a major ally in crypto. Certainly others will be following in his footsteps.

This is truly incredible. A few years ago we used to talk about whether such news about bitcoin could be true. We are living it now.
It's nice to see things like getting a salary, making contracts, paying with bitcoin.
With this deal, he will have earned much more money than many players in the NBA Cheesy

They'll earn big money if bitcoin will pump and they will cash out, however, I think they will not go all in, just like a typical investor, learning how to manage the risk is very important and we can't considering holding bitcoin as a way of saving money, if I'm a player, I would go for 70/30, 70% fiat and 30% in bitcoin considered for long term hold.
1790  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading Strategies changes with time on: August 19, 2021, 11:30:17 PM
I can't say that this is definitely true. There are strategies that do not change over time, for example, buy low - sell high, all you need with this strategy is patience and the right choice of entry points.
However, the market is developing, and in the short term it can act in an extremely unpredictable manner, which opens up additional opportunities.
It was a genuine strategy, we have nothing to change with that.
What we are talking about is different things in which aside from having to buy low and sell high, we also have other strategies accompanied to it. As this sometimes becomes obsolete due to market change from time to time, it is a need for us to adopt the changes otherwise, it comes ineffective.

But above all, the market analysis seems to have a vital role in trading.

Things are getting better and better on Casimero.

Casimero on doping as he pushes for title fight

Quote
LAS VEGAS – Now it’s Naoya Inoue who’s stalking Johnriel Casimero.

The undefeated world bantamweight champion raised the issues surrounding doping and weight management should a fight with the outspoken Filipino is finally made.

Inoue, 28, again took to social media in following up on his earlier demand to arrange a fight with Casimero, hopefully before the end of the year.

“Once the match with Casimero is decided, I would like to beat it under the rule of boxing,” said the reigning WBA and IBF bantamweight champion.

The tide has changed, Inoue is now more aggressive in making this fight happen.

We might see a great fight this year, and hopefully, there's no hindrance to it.
Good news, that Inoue is down for it. Let's all just wish and see the progress on this match if this is going to be locked on and we'll see where it goes.
There's too much noise for Casimero and Inoue and finally, Inoue won't just let it go alone Casimero taking it on social media. Well, he has already said it and is down for it. Let's all just wait with all of the arrangements that they have to do to make this fight happen. Maybe by early next year.

Inoue wants it this year as he wants to beat down Casimero to the ground but under the rules of boxing. I think his ego was really touched here, so he personally is the one who is more aggressive now to make this fight happened. Casimero was not hurt in the fight against Rigo, he looks fresh after the fight, so maybe he should start training now because the fighter that he will face will never run as Rigo did.
1792  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Canelo Alvarez vs Caleb Plant on: August 19, 2021, 08:38:50 PM
Unlocking this thread now and changed its title because Canelo and Caleb Plant have agreed to unify their belts this coming November. Though no contracts signing at the moment but i do think that this is a go since this is Team Canelo's objective this year, to collect all the Belt in the Super middleweight division. IMO, Caleb Plant offer a very little to none resistance on Canelo's quest to unify the belt of this weight category.

Great update, and a great fight for Canelo this year.

Another boxer that is undefeated might suffer a defeat at the hands of Canelo.
his fights this year were all good, hopefully, this is a more exciting one, and that he will not just easily dominate Caleb Plant.
1793  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why FOMO when a coin is pumping on: August 19, 2021, 02:43:06 PM
i think it is a coincidence. some people are able to read and understand the market. knowing that there is an opportunity for the token to go higher in the market, hence the reason for investing. some whom do not follow the market trust their instinct. they believed that the token will do well. some times it works out and sometimes it failed. i don't think any one looses money in the crypto world. all you need to do is invest in a top tier token and wait. 
What happens is every time there's a FOMO, it means new investors are coming to play again, I'm saying they'll play because they just want to ride with the hype and most of them just hope they'll get a big return in just a short period of time, but in reality, they'll end up panicking because they are unfamiliar with the market movement.
1794  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: {Boxing} Manny Pacquiao vs Yordenis Ugas on: August 19, 2021, 02:18:09 PM
How about some crazy bet?

Pacquiao and round 1 x70
Pacquiao and round 2 x 50
Pacquiao and round 3 x35

I'm thinking of putting a bet like $20 per bet... what do you think about this crazy bet, is it a good investment for Pacquiao?
1795  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Inoue vs Donaire II discussion on: August 18, 2021, 08:45:54 PM
Who's going to fight first?

I think Casimoero's strategy is very effective, Inoue was disrespected by him so he wants to fight him now.

Here's the latest news about that.

Inoue takes notice of Casimero antics: ‘Please organize a match’
1796  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casimero vs Rigondeaux this August 14, 2021 on: August 18, 2021, 08:19:54 PM
Donaire is already in His late years meaning improvements are far from happening if he will be facing Inoue as the japanese boxer is too young and has a lot of future while Nonito is nearing retirement .
although you have a point that he is already old and would probably have a hard improving but seeing his recent performance I'd say he has improved a lot and have a chance of winning against Inoue. but then again this is just my opinion.


Donaire had some trouble with fighters who move well on the floor, just like what we saw in his fight against Rigo and Inoue, he loses in the fight. We were just hype because he KO an opponent which not really at par with Inoue and Rigo, but still this rematch is quite interesting so let's see if this time he will shock the world or maybe he will not be able to survive anymore.
1797  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoincash or Ethereum on: August 17, 2021, 09:20:39 PM
BCH was one of the most profitable prior to the bull run this year, that was 2017 and it has even had a higher ATH than ETH, but look at where it is now, it does not even reach $1000 again while ETH will likely to break out anytime soon to $4k.

You can always see the price history of two, but BCH is a bitcoin fork and I don't see a fork would be successful in the long run.
1798  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why FOMO when a coin is pumping on: August 17, 2021, 09:00:29 PM
I always wonder why a lot of people fomo to buy a coin or token after the price has pumped. In this present bull run I've seen a lot of people FOMO and buy cryptos at a really high price and they quickly dump when they witness drawdowns.
Isn't that just hustling backwards?? Its almost like they are trying to loose money on purpose.
So i wonder why they FOMO to buy in the first place

Hello, my friend. Stay awhile and listen...

That's behaviour is caused by human psychology, and if you fully understand how this works and how the crowds are being easily manipulated by the guys on the hill, you will definitely wake up rich one day Smiley

That also makes the price of a certain coin have a significant pump in just a short period of time, FOMO is not good because buying and that would result in someone being able to buy a certain coin with an overvalued price. It's usually effective for the short-term traders as they can just dump it again with just a small percentage of income, but for holders, the best time to buy is during the bear market.
1799  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: August 16, 2021, 09:47:03 PM
Yeah, that was back in the old days when basketball was more physical, and I like the old days as for me it's more entertaining than what we are seeing in the present. Shaq and Wallace are so strong and they don't shoot 3s, they even struggle with their FT percentage. I think it's Curry who changes it, lol, that's why he got the biggest contract now as he makes everyone learn to shoot because of his great 3 point shooting.
Wow, old times! I also like the 90s and early 2000s style of play.
It was a game with a lot of contact, we had good players with 3-point shots and other players with excellent ball handling!

But these days I've noticed that the type of game (and NBA players has changed). We have a large portion making shoot in the 3 points. By the way, we had "unicorns players", tall players with good ball handling and they can shoot!!

There's no flopping in the old days, I wonder who invented that "flop", is it Lebron? lol...

Flopping is cheating, it's a disrespect to the real essence of competition and I think the organization will have to impose more penalties on floppers as it does not develop a real competition that everyone could just use just to win with no essence of satisfaction.
1800  Economy / Speculation / Re: Are you bullish or bearish this year? on: August 16, 2021, 09:15:01 PM
I am definitely bullish, with the prices going up right now and there's no sign that it will go down anytime soon with 4 months left for the prices to go much higher this year in order to beat the current all time high, I think that it's not should be debated that the current situation and feelings for the market is bullish.

We might have a different interpretation of a sign, but when the market is bullish, you would not really see a sign that it will fall as everyone's expectation is the price will continue to rise, that's why some get easily FOMO when the market is bullish. Well, it's possible that it will hit a new ATH, who knows, but the question is, what's the game plan when you see a new ATH?
