1941  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is it possible to make good profits through ICOs? on: July 01, 2021, 01:33:05 PM
ICO prices are cheaper and anything which is available for cheaper price does not guarantee you to make good returns. So, do not look for cheaper prices but always look into reputed projects so that you could get good returns for your investment.

No, the right thing to do is, do not to invest in ICO anymore.

Why would anyone still be interested in investing in ICO when it's already obsolete, it's easy to invest but the risk is high due to the fact that there are no successful ICO now, and this platform are only used by scammers. How about old coins, I mean old coins that are undervalued, I think they are way better than investing in ICO as they are on exchanges and you can tract their performance.

I've read a news today on social media, Donaire are so serious about cancelling the fight because Casimero attacks the family of Donaire which makes him mad. I don't know if this is just a way to sell their fight, to make heat on this match but this is indeed unacceptable so I think Donaire is making a good decision here but for sure, money will still be a matter for both teams, we'll see on August.

I see some memes saying.

When Mayorga disrespected De la hoya's wife, De la hoya knock Mayorga in the ring.
Now, Donaire's wife was disrespected according to him, Donaire cancels the fight, this Filipino fight has no class and he has a lot of haters now, especially the wife of Donaire who happened to be his manager as well.

That's the better way to shows up your disappointment with your opponents, not how Donaire act and cancelling the fight.
If they are aiming for more talks about the fight, there are other ways of trash talks and let the fans engagements flows. Unlike with
what happened after this disrespect issue,

they are not bringing interest but hates to those who read this article who are waiting for this possible fight, disappointment throw
fans attentions and interest.

Let's call it as an excuse on Donaire's side, they would never do that if the opponent is not a Filipino.

You know, they think they are really superior and it's actually Donaire's camp who are not respecting Casimero, we know for sure that Casimero's tirade was just part of selling the fight, but Donaire's camp was too serious and demanded respect thinking they are even better than the humble Manny Pacman. All I can say is that Donaire is killing the excitement of the fans, if this fight will be officially canceled, he will lose Filipino supporters.
Not sure if they wouldnt still demand if the opponent wasnt a Filipino or just they are trying to make some issue here to make some spice before the fight and make more some controversies or something.
This doesnt show any disrespect since its just a request but if this fight wont push through then theres tendency that Donaire will be having some rematch against Inoue and Casimero would just
be next on the line and i dont see that Casimero is better than Donaire in terms of experience and i dont believe on losing fans after this issue.

According to Casimero's camp, they ask their promoter to cancel the Rigo fight to gave way to Donaire since they were a challenge and they think it's a great fight, but this messed happened, so they really have no commitment, they are destroying a supposed to be a great fight between Casimero and Rigo just for their greedy personal interest as Donaire will have a fight with Inoue.

you know what? when Bob Arum came into the picture, things have flip, and Arum knows Inoue would be able to beat the old Donaire again.

1944  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: BNB to $1k? on: June 30, 2021, 08:48:55 PM
of course the price of BNB can reach $1k or even more than that, because BNB is one of the most popular coin at this time and projects from BNB are also very widely used by people (exchange and blockchain), so that will make the price of BNB can continue to increase very high and I'm sure in the next bull run the price of BNB will definitely be able to reach $1k easily.
I guess even if we will not have a bull run yet, BNB has a chance to rise as it happened before already that it reached a new ATH even the market was bearish overall. BNB Is just a project that has an outstanding team, they keep working to develop the project and they already gained respect from investors and the community here.

Game 4 Hawks versus Bucks. I am still betting for the Bucks here at -6.5. Over 216.5

Trae Young questionable for Game 4. Bone bruise in his foot.
https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/31726560/mri-shows-atlanta-hawks-trae-young-bone-bruise-foot-guard-questionable-game-4
It will be difficult for the Hawks to find their offense if their leader won't be playing with them.
Who will take the point guard position? Will it be Lou Williams? Bogdan also probable while Giannis is also listed but a higher chance to play.
Good luck.
I agree, Bogdan is already suffering from kind of injury that's why he is struggling as well. He is missing a lot of shots, not sure about Lou Williams, if he can provide the spark. So yeah, it will be a difficult game if Trae Young doesn't show up. All the Bucks do is to really play good defense and let their offense carry them. I think Giannis doesn't want to miss this game. So if he can play, definitely he might go for it but with limited minutes. They still have Middleton who finally get his shooting back and then Jrue Holiday.

If you didn't mention the status of Giannis, I would not know that he is also injured. What happens to them? they are so prone to injury and this is not good really as it will lessen the excitement. If Giannis would not be explosive, I think it's just an even affair and I would like to expect the Hawks to even the series.
There's no fresh update about the status of Giannis.

I wouldn’t get too excited. Paul George may have turned in one of the best Clippers post season performances ever, but I don’t think you can expect 2 more games of that. It has made things a lot more interesting in the series though as Chris Paul must be having 3-1 flashbacks. I think yo-yo can expect the Suns to bounce back strong in the next game since they won’t be wanting to take this to 7.

History is still against the Clippers here, so I agree it's hard to comeback from a 1-3 deficit. But with that win, it makes the series more interesting. I thought that the Suns will take this one so that they have a lot of time to rest and prefer for the finals.
It's hard but has a higher chance than being down 0-3 in the series.
If we still remember, The Warriors were able to come back from a 1-3 deficit against the OKC Thunder and that was the last season of Durant because he was disappointed, so I would say anything could happen here.

But Reggie Jackson hit a lot of big time shots when the Suns is about to close the gap and then they put a good defence on Booker again.

This guy is really legit, he stepped up when needed, an underrated player that really needs to be rewarded high in the next season.

Their journey is not yet over, let's hope their run will continue.
1947  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: XRP is pumping now. on: June 28, 2021, 09:24:49 PM
You are both big optimists. XRP will never catch up with Bitcoin .. let me tell you more XRP will never catch up with any real cryptocurrency, for the very obvious reason - it is not a cryptocurrency because it does not follow the basic principle of decentralization. Speculators will earn and lose on XRP, but as far as I am concerned, XRP should not appear in combinations with real cryptocurrencies at all.
I believe in what you say because it is clear that XRP will not be able to pass Bitcoin in many ways and aspects, after all XRP has also experienced problems that some people think will no longer be solved.
Like what exactly?

I think XRP is very useful according to its usage, the problem that I see with XRP is the lawsuit against them and I think there's a positive development on that in favor of the team. Both have a different purpose, the latter is centralized while bitcoin is decentralized, and we can listen to different opinions from people but XRP would not survive and become successful up to the present if investors do not trust it.
1948  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Red crypto market today on: June 28, 2021, 09:10:17 PM
this is very reasonable because the market has experienced a very high increase and is now starting to show a continuous decline the market does not always show prices going up there must be a price going down, be patient and control the emotions the market will definitely return green
we have already seen how the market situation was direr in 2018. even the recovery is not enough just 1-2 years. improvement does occur but to form a good rally takes quite a long time.
while for now, we can still see how the market corrected but not so bad. Many altcoins may have been destroyed, but I think top market assets are still able to survive with the current stability of BTC.

Good project stand still as there are community who support the projects,

it's not easy for the market to pump that quick unless there are big whales

who will start pumping the market by bringing big amount of money inside

and  let the bull to start dominating back.

That would be easy if during the bull run, and because the bull run is over, we will see some struggle of altcoins in the market like we witnessed before. Old and new projects are all the same, they need to hype up in order to pump and it's true, it will not be possible without the help of the whales.

One important thing is for it to get listed in big exchanges, it's the easiest way to attract the whales.
1949  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: This time when bear market comes on: June 25, 2021, 09:05:41 PM
This time totally different from 2018 situation. Still i am beliving that no bear market comes. so what time will come , i think in another 3 months?



I think the bear market is already here and the dump that is expected is happening again.

The market has been struggling for weeks or probably a month already, and this bad news is keeping investors away from investing their money.

The hype is over, china FUD and Elon's hate is here, so no interest in investing for now, with that, it will result in a temporary market collapse due to an overprice value of altcoins that happened during the bull run.

My choice is TRON, I've been waiting for it to cross a new ATH but it did not happen this year. In terms of development, TRON is more progressive IMO, therefore I believe its future is brighter than LTC. We don't see the future but it's important that we understand how to follow the team's progress and if their plans are being worked on or implemented because that tells us about the chance of success of a certain project and TRON wins that battle.
1951  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Red crypto market today on: June 25, 2021, 08:31:03 PM
I think a correction is normal after so much hype, now that China has gone to great lengths to eliminate bitcoin from the country and as other Western states continue their proposed adoption the markets seem to be back in green.
Honestly this correction is way too massive compared to the previous ones we used to have, and it's been over a month now since bitcoin dumped from $64k and even after the positive news from El Salvador about accepting bitcoin as a legal tender, China fud seems like its never going to stop, everyday they keep thinking of a way to eliminate bitcoin just like today, they banned banks from having anything to do with crypto exchanges, but bitcoin is bigger than just one country compared to back in 2017 when news like this affected bitcoin's price badly.
I beg to disagree, in the 2017 bull run, bitcoin almost reach $20k, and the price correction dip to as low as $3k+.

If we round it off, $20k to $3k, bitcoin was only holding 15% of its ATH, while now, the ATH was $60k (IIRC) and the price at $32k now, so we are still 50% dump from its original price, based on the comparison, 2017 correction is worst.
1952  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: BNB to $1k? on: June 25, 2021, 01:50:25 PM
it will be very difficult for now but does not rule out the possibility, because from the beginning of Q2 this year the market has continued to fall and resulted in the marketcap continuing to fall and the prices of all coins dropping by more than 50%, we don't know if this is the start of a long bear.

Or vice versa, also possible that investors and traders are just resting and figuring out their next move,

Once money flows back this coin is surely one of those project that will received more investors interest, for now, it will rely to every

supporters to pushed the value up and start another bull run. This coin has that capabilities moving against the market and create
its own directions.

The big question then is why it doesn't already move against the market? Binance is earning money on a daily basis and BNB should do its own thing, but as we can see it doesn't. Everything is tied to Bitcoin for whatever reason.

It will never happen that BNB will have an independent movement and will continue to be bullish when most of the altcoins or bitcoin are struggling. That isn't the trend, even how good the project is, but if the timing is not bullish, it will still not going to attract investors, and money is not expected to flow.
1953  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why the martingale system sucks! (doubling down on losses) on: June 25, 2021, 01:28:03 PM
Could you please put some more light on this? Do you mean that you need to stick within 1 satoshi bet for some times before increasing the bet amount? How do you come to know the exact number of "certain number of losses".

For example, if you stick with 1 satoshi bet for 5 rolls, and your 4th roll is positive then you may not get chances to recover your previous losses.

Martingale strategy is all about "immediate recovery of losses before going for another round of betting". It means if your 3rd bet is a negative then you need to go for recovering it from your 4th bet onward until you find a positive roll. So, immediately doubling your base bet from the next roll onward alone will serve the purpose of going for martingale strategy. Keep sticking with same bet amount is definitely not a martingale strategy.

This is a misunderstanding of the Martingale strategy and it just misleads those who try to use this strategy. Mathematically speaking, when you increase your bet there is no retracement, you only increase your risk. Given the fact that your bets sometimes win and you return to the original bet (with a small profit), it seems to you that you are winning by changing the size of the bet, but in reality you are making a small profit only by increasing the risk.

That's the reality, doubling every loses is a big risk, some might not see it because they don't believe that they'll lose 10 in a row, which in actual practice using the martingale strategy, that would already result to a huge loses even if you only have a $10 starting bet.
1954  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Breaking : Donaire Versus Casimero on: June 25, 2021, 11:03:54 AM
That is Casimero's style, he is so brandish and arrogant in every fight, but it brings the best out of him. And he can back up his talk, because in his last couple of fights, he knock out his opponent.


He has not even reached half of what Donaire and Pacquiao have achieved to brag like that, I know all Filipino fighters are very humble but Casimero is an exception, he is very boastful he thinks and acts like he is the greatest and shows no respect to Donaire he told on one on video that he will punish Donaire, who do you think he is, we'll see if he can prove that in their fight date.

Perhaps he's just arrogant in his own little way. He has achieved something and he's trying to promote the fight and hype it. We will know come August if his arrogance is backed up by a solid performance.

But I don't think Casimero is a special case. Donaire himself is arrogant. Pacquiao is humble of course, but I cannot see the same humility in Donaire. Donaire has a lot of air in him. Even inside the ring, I remembered more than a single moment when Donaire was showboating.

I agree with you, I can see that Donaire is not really humble inside but for me, it's not a big deal, they are just trying to be real and that's what matters. What we see is them fighting and winning, that's the real definition of a great fighter and these two are great fighters, which means we will see a great fight comes August.
1955  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: June 25, 2021, 10:18:48 AM
Suns are in foul trouble throughout the game, game 3 was really for the Clippers and they made it successfully. Pane was also injured and did not come back in the game, so all the advantage was really on the Clippers. I'm not sure if they can even the series, but hopefully they'll play the same intensity in game 4 and Beverly has to still do his work on Booker.

The Clippers really loved to be behind 0-2 in this playoffs. They tend to become stronger during game 3 and up. I'll be more impressed with Paul George If he can bring his team in the Finals this year. I mean PG has been slandered as much as LeBron in this league.
Though I'd love to see the Phoenix Suns in the Finals, but I also like Paul George to be in the biggest stage. He had an amazing career back in the Pacers but Miami was too much for him. This might be his only chance to win the championship.

They are still up to the right track, they all started at 0-2 then win game 3 and 4. So, let's ride with the trend and hope that the Clippers will win in game 4. The good thing about this team is that they figure out how to win and then their opponent is not able to make some adjustment. PG has to bring this team as no signs of Kawhi coming back, and the more this series will be longer, the better chance we will see Kawhi to be back in the series or in the NBA Finals if the Clippers will be successful again.

Would you take the Clippers with this odds?

Clippers vs Suns series.



I think it's really attractive, we can gamble on this one with a little amount, 1k to win 7k. damn.

Anyone here who thinks the Clippers could come back again and win?

Nice win by the Clippers, the series odds are now reduced to 4.96 with a price boost.

I would say I did not make a wrong decision although the Suns now are still in advantage, seeing how the Clippers did a good job against Booker, I think this little chance might help them to win the series. Me being optimistic cheering on my bet.  Grin

Booker 5-21 (FGM-A)
CP3 5-19 (FGM-A)

Personally, Risking extra coin with that odd is okay, Clippers still got the chance seeing ow they managed to keep the close gap and almost snatching a game from Suns home court.

The fact that Kawhai still possible to play, that something that gamblers may risk with. Game 3 is very crucial for Clippers they need to win this one at home.

Extending the series and have that chance to switch the momentum in their favor.

Yes, I will definitely put some extra as I see it's a high-risk bet but I just like the reward a lot.

I can't remember if it's the same odds when the Jazz put them at 0-2 in the 2nd round, but I would not make the same mistake, I'm taking it.



Hawks not only cover but hit the money line dam.  Not a Trae fan since he dismantled my knicks but the dude absolutely killed it.  The shoulder shimmy 3pt was cold. 

Trae Young was exceptional, he looks so cool, playing like he is just enjoying the game and he is also trusting his teammates a lot. Collins and Capela, these are very consistent players in the team, and it help them most especially in the defense.
1958  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Red crypto market today on: June 24, 2021, 11:12:05 AM
No matter how strong the stunt BTC and crypto market pull the only way is downward trend, the highest we are going to see BTC goes is that 60k, it's finally over pack your things people and wait for the next halving, stability incoming? I don't think so it's possible that BTC will reach 10k again this I assure you, we are heading into big red market and nothing can stop it, not even a good news, I don't expect many to understand this but if you've been in crypto space for years you should understand perfectly.
I've been here for years already and I know what you are saying, based on experience, I believe that we will likely see a more down trend that would cause more panic, but for me, it's normal, we've seen a lot of that in the past so there's nothing to panic, we just have to understand and trust the market so everything will be easy for us.
1959  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: June 24, 2021, 10:57:44 AM
Maybe rough him up, like Beverly defense on Booker, but as I have said, he is not intimidated and like to thrive in this pressure game.

Trae Young is now the best PG IMO, you can't stop him because he has everything, he is smart and he can get a foul if you put pressure on him, if he is in the line, that's automatic money as well because he is a great FT shooter. And mind you guys, Trae young is still playing with an injury, and he still manages to maintain being exceptional.

IIRC, Trae Young is not even an all-star, now that he has already proven people are wrong, then for sure next season, he will be an all start. Imagine if the Young Hawks would beat the Bucks in this series, that would be a big surprise on the NBA as we never thought they'll go this far.
