Initially gambling is done much on animals. Now with each and everything gambling is being associated. The modern day gambling is the fantasy leagues. Earlier animals fight each other, a bookie will conduct the match. He'll announce the match and request if anyone interested on placing bets. The bookie collect a small margin and returns money to the winners. Now such acts can be seen on the countryside.
1822  Economy / Speculation / Re: What is the possibility Bitcoin will rise before the end of the year ? on: July 20, 2022, 11:16:08 PM
Last year I predicted Bitcoin will rise above the value at the start of the year and I was totally right about it, in April Bitcoin eventually reached a new all-time high price of $64k. Bitcoin added about 72% of its value as it  increased drastically before it eventually started falling back in May till September. I don’t really know how this year is going to turn out now because of the present dip. But I just hope it increases, that’s why I’ve been advising so many people  to hold their Bitcoins and even buy more now cause it will surely rise again.
Bitcoin will rise again but i am not sure it will happen this year or next year. But it looks like it will take a long time.  It will probably behave like 2017-2021. But it is true that at the next pump Bitcoin may cross $100 000. It may even be more. So now is a perfect time to hold on to Bitcoin. it is not a financial advice.
The price have bounced to some margin over the past few days. For this reason some have begun to speculate that the bullish trend have begun. According to majority of the users we're in the bearish market hoping for a bullish move. For now we can experience growth in between as now, but for any reason this isn't gonna give a stable growth. The bull trend is predicted to happen on 2023-2024.

Bearish market is a way to strengthen the portfolio. Users who bought during the downturn will be enjoying the profit by now. The price of bitcoin is nearing $24k which is a good market progress. For a long this has been around $20k - $21k. If it was able to breach $25k, then there is more chances of bullish move for some time period. Ethereum too stays above $1500 is good move considering its price down to $1000 few weeks back.
1824  Economy / Speculation / Re: Have we reached a bottom price for BTC? on: July 18, 2022, 11:59:57 PM
We need to go long. The market at present is in good position according to the charts. In reality of the market connective to the world market and the incidents taking place associated with bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, it looks like we need to travel more time period on the bearish track with intermittent bullish move. Whales haven't started to play the market. Once they start the market can turn either of the direction.
1825  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Discussion] Should Gambling be Banned? on: July 18, 2022, 11:49:26 PM
In my country actors who promote gambling sites are responsible for deaths happening with the users below the age of 18 years. This has kept the actors and popular people away from promoting gambling sites. Those gambling sites aren't provably fair operating. In such a way regulations can be created and proper awareness need to be given. This can help gamblers limit their participation and stay out of big losses.
1826  Economy / Gambling / Re: Stake.com - The Leading Crypto Casino - 🦉 Drake, UFC, Watford Main Partner ⚽ 🥊 on: July 18, 2022, 10:24:11 PM
What do you think if you play this game Sugar Rush  and get a super multiplier like this  Cheesy I played it for 1 hour and managed to shoot it
I planned to try the challenges Stake vs Eddie  which ends tomorrow, because it's too tired of waiting and then I activate the buy feature
My luck is still continuing in this casino  Cheesy



That's a good multiplier. Congrats on the effort and achieving it. At times the win at the end gives a satisfaction that can never be experienced on anything else. You're really strong, because I never go for a bet higher than a dollar on these games. You've made $8 bet which have brought big win. I think if we play casually without expectations we might hit big multipliers in a short time period.
1827  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Can trading be likened to gambling and how so? on: July 18, 2022, 10:15:35 PM
Many people misunderstand and quote wrongly between gambling and trading. Some people compare and define gambling with bitcoin as same thing. But from my perspective i have not seen any that collabrate gambling and trading of cryptocurrency. Gambling is game which start with prediction and it's been predicted according to what you observe with both parties. So someone wants to give definition of trading as gambling, the person should give the comparison and differentiate both in a tabular form.
We can't deny that there is no similarity between gambling and trading. According to me, in both trading and gambling we risk to increase our chance of making a good return out of the risked amount. With gambling this happens out of statistics and information gathered relative to the players and the teams involved. With Trading this gets completely associated with the market movements and the prediction connective to the past years.
1828  Economy / Economics / Re: Avoid loan apps, a word of advice. on: July 18, 2022, 09:22:08 PM
Some unexpected situations and emergencies will require us to take loans especially if we don't have enough cash but if it isn't urgently needed or if we will only loan for investment, we better avoid it. Loan apps will only take advantage of those who badly needed funds and might harass you if you will not be able to pay them on time. It will put you under pressure and stress. That's why one of the most important pieces of advice is for us to save and allocate enough funds for emergency purposes so we'll never have to borrow when the time comes. Only loaning companies will get rich but will put you into deep debt later on.
Nowadays developing an application has turned to be a very simple thing. People are easily scammed with the help of these applications. These application names weren't that popular, but the loans will be issued within few days. Further they start to collect back the loan with interest. This is done in a very harsh way, so whenever you think of getting loss think of mom.
1829  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and Fengshui on: July 18, 2022, 09:14:25 PM

Seem like Fengshui is a symbol of good luck and strength to the players.
Or does they stay like a statue on the main door or gamblors wear it in their pendents and rings as well
Yes, I too believe Fengshui is for luck. Chinese people have different beliefs and they stand out from the rest of the world. Gambling is nothing an exception. Here the Fengshui is a luck factor same as that laughing Buddha is being placed everywhere so to get good business. If we dig the history we can see something interesting behind these activities.
1830  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Countries have banned Bitcoin; Do you believe is because of criminal activities on: July 18, 2022, 08:14:38 PM

The argument that Bitcoin is used for illegal/criminal activities is just a joke. Tell me which currency is not used for criminal activities?? Or tell me the volume of fiat money involved in criminal activities and the volume of Bitcoin involved in criminal activities. This must be a joke! lol

The real problem is that the government and the world can't control, so they are frightened by the flow of crypto funds. The crypto decentralization system cannot be controlled by anyone and it is against the government. The problem of misappropriation of crypto funds, I think it is only a small part of the problem. The government is trying to raise as a tool opponents of digital money policy. Although I believe that currently there are still some peculiarities such as transaction fees, dense networks, scalability. In addition, instability may make people disadvantaged or benefited. But that's not a good reason in my opinion.

Sure, but my point is that those scumbs talk about crypto (and they include Bitcoin here, I do not) as if criminal aactivities were only performed with crypto. This is sand thrown into the eyes of the less aware people. People that knows very little about crypto (and Bitcoin mostly). And they take it as true without even thinking of what is actually going on with all fiat currencies which moves billions in crime, mostly polititians (governments, states) and big enterprises financial crime. It's absurd the statement that crypto is used mostly for crime!
This is common with the cryptocurrency market. Some people can't be made to understand what is cryptocurrency or something else. When they themselves start knowing about it, they'll progress and some unwanted clash. Now things were different and people know the truth happening with bitcoin. So, for some people to have the real meaning is not easy and until then holding is the right choice.
1831  Economy / Economics / Re: Sri Lanka Economic Crisis is Getting Worse on: July 17, 2022, 11:55:40 PM
When I watched on the news the video of people from this country climbing into the president's bed I said to myself: "this country must be very deep in debt and poverty" because you hardly see a great revolt of the population like the one I saw, what it hurts more about all this and that the president of the country is rich and can continue with his good life while the poor people of this country will remain poor for a long time because even if they put a government of honest people it will take years to recover the economy of this country
It is true, the wrong economic policies have made the country struggle hard. Forever the poor will stay poor. The president and his family was enjoying a well sophisticated life. Sri Lanka is not the only country suffering this. Right now things went beyond the limit, and the same have made people burst. More countries are on the list, soon one by one can explode.

After Sri Lanka and Russia, more countries at risk of default with debt crisis looming large
1832  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Largest exchange in Philippines to list SHIB !!! on: July 17, 2022, 11:42:30 PM
Even now Shiba and bitcoin were the most searched cryptocurrency among the United Kingdom people. So, there is much expectations over Shiba. Maybe the exchange might've analysed and found similar statistics with the Philippines people interested over Shiba investment. Shiba entered the market as a memecoin, but further it is being making regular updates and more development to stay high on the market.
1833  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: July 17, 2022, 11:38:33 PM
Baber Azam plays from Pakistan, so everyone in Pakistan likes him  Smiley

Apart from the differences and political conflicts between the two countries, people from both nations like both the players and love to see their matches.
Yes - there are many Pakistani players who are good friends with Indian players.
Many Pakistani players - have appeared in many interviews of indian channels and they have shared their stories that they are good friends with Indian players.
Every player from different countries have good friendship, but at times this goes into Twitter fights which is just a way of expressing their opinion. Recently Chahal mentioned about his experience with IPL. In that during the early seasons of IPL playing for Bangalore Australian players used to make him fun and he have experienced hard times. This has happened just because the players were partying.
1834  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: July 17, 2022, 11:23:59 PM

In just 2 days, 2 innings have ended. So I don't see any possibility of this match being a draw. They will win only if Sri Lankan batsmen can bat with responsibility. Because the performance of the bowlers is good enough. Tomorrow's first session will be challenging for the Sri Lankan batsmen. At the crease are Kasun Rajitha and Oshada Fernando. Sri Lanka's performance largely depends on the performance of their middle order players. Sri Lanka can collect big only if the middle order players play well.
This match will surely have its result. The match is no more a draw, and it looks like both the teams having equal chance of making a win looking the scoring on the first innings. Sri Lanka have started good the second innings, and it needs to make atleast 350 runs. If the scoring is done same as the first innings there is more chances of Pakistan making the win.
1835  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My old officemate become millionaire on investing on Bitcoin on: July 16, 2022, 11:05:30 PM
The trick was to use the money he could afford to live without and used it to buy some Bitcoins and even forgot as though he bought them. And also let's not forget his patience. Five years of waiting is no easy thing to do.

Had I used his strategy, I think would have way more Bitcoins in my account than I have right now.
These strategies won't work with everyone. Here the user have forgotten it. Another thing when we're in need of money we'll surely look for the investment and make use of it. As the user have forgotten it, the holding have lasted for 5+ years. Always spend after meeting the months expense could let users have more funds invested in cryptocurrencies.
1836  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is it good to invest Dot for long term? What are your thoughts about Polkadot? on: July 16, 2022, 09:33:47 PM
The parachain concept is new thing and it is supposed to make a big change in the network when complete implementation without flaw is done. However in between it'll encounter different issues and more competence can be felt from the other altcoins on the top order. In all parameters these are potential altcoins, which means these are low risk altcoins. So adding it to the portfolio for long term profiting will give good return.
1837  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Uncertainty in the NFT market on: July 16, 2022, 09:27:52 PM
NFTs aren't strong enough to deal with this season. Some developing projects paused for a while and will just resume launching when the market recovers. The hype of NFTs isn't active anymore and it's hardly affected by the bearish market. I guess the time for NFTs will continue to boom in the future but it needs time and investing in it in this bear market won't be a wise idea.
NFTs are hyped same as that we had ICO's in the past. To some extent it looks good and it emerged as a value backed asset. Further it wasn't able to make good progress, because people realised a new marketing strategy is being used and nothing is gonna happen out of it. I don't find the NFT market to flourish as its beginning days.

There are dozens of fake football leagues in Africa, where both the teams are in cahoot to fix the results lol

Just another day down in Africa  Cheesy

Reminds me of some fake cricket league in India:
https://twitter.com/JElgott/status/1546470053746548738
Yes, this reminds the fake cricket league that is being organised and sports bettors were scammed. I don't know how these scammers are making plans to make people believe there is a league taking place and has allowed users to bet over it. Spending on the popular leagues as well as upon research, Is there a league being played with this name and with certain participants is a must before placing a bet.
1839  Economy / Economics / Re: Remain decentralized with crypto or centralized with banks. on: July 16, 2022, 09:10:49 PM
We have bitcoin on our side but we can't deny the comfortability that banks gives us on our daily lives. I myself have some money on my bank but it isn't that much since I don't fully trust them, It's just the life would be easier.
Yes, we still need their services and we can't deny that. In my opinion even though bitcoin is better adopted but basically bitcoin is not to replace this fiat system. Bitcoin will also not be a competitor but the advantages it has will be an alternative choice for us.
The cryptocurrency is an added service to give comfort and trust for the users against the traditional banking system. However the independent usage of bitcoin for now is low as known people accept it. The usage of having a wallet to hold bitcoin and cryptocurrencies is more secure than having our funds in bank, but to make cash in our hands to bitcoin we are in need of bank. This makes decentralised crypto and centralized banks a needed one.
1840  Economy / Speculation / Re: Your bitcoin ATL prediction before next halving on: July 14, 2022, 11:59:45 PM
Right now every crypto user is aware of the market and are in accumulation looking for the halving. The next big price moment is during those days. According to different market movements, it is found that the market will show slower growth for long time period. During this time period it is good to make some profit out of the fluctuation and strengthen the portfolio.

According to me there is more chances of price touching $10k for sure. This can happen close to the month of October. Because there used to be some growth taking place over the end of every year.
