21  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Would you lend your cryptocurrencies? on: October 15, 2020, 08:05:50 AM
Don't bet your money on someone else, you lose everything. It's not like we put savings in the bank because they have proper headquarters, we know where to file a complaint. In the world of crypto, even though the company has its registered headquarters, when something goes wrong, it is difficult to get its money back. Keep your money in your hardware wallet, wait for the price to rise and sell, that's optimal. Interest 8.5%/year but lose everything, you will be desperate.

Without collateral or not knowing the person lending will be highly risky and not everyone can afford to lose it. It is a good business though but only if you got some good backing and ready to take risk and also have a proper collateral in place etc then it may be the good choice else for normal ones better to stay invested in coins.
22  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What we can expect the price of eth at the end of 2020? on: October 14, 2020, 01:54:23 PM
that depends on eth 2.0 release. If it gets released this year then price can easily get to $1000 without any doubt but if we have to wait more months then I don't really expect it to go anywhere close to that price range. Consider that eth already reached $500 btc stays above 11k price ranger we'll see that again.

1000$ is too much as per me, even if it gets released it would jump but would be limited and not like 2.5x times the current price. If it happens well and good and unless btc crosses 12k level mark does not think ETH will have a bull ride. Seeing the price at 384 so crossing 400$ will the first thing we all are awaiting now.

Bitcoin is not just for investors alone. Some people choose bitcoin as  their investment, where they can buy coins and sell coins to make profit at the end of the transaction. While some choose bitcoin as a platform where they can have more knowledge to use to differentiate bitcoin with other cryptocurrencies and for them to be identify as a bitcoin users not for investment alone.
Some just choose bitcoin as a course to study, so that they can  impact all new users and,how to relate with bitcoin to get a good rank from the forum.


It can be used by investors, traders, merchants for their business, people for transferring money etc. So it shows us that it can be used by anyone and not just restricted to investors. But majorly people use it as a investment as it is one of the most profitable returns over the years and all have witnessed that 2017 bull run.

I have some friend that rely from others and get paid to trade for them. Understand the risks in crypto as we all know price is volatile. I agree with this statement learn for yourself and trade on your own. If your money lose all you can't blame anyone the group that you paid for. This is why it is best to learn and gain knowledge, anyway you will be the one who can gained benefits for your hard work.

Its your money so the onus also lies on that person because trading in crypto is risky as it is highly volatile. So, learning and knowing is very much necessary before anyone start to trade. The more you learn and get experience better as an individual as this will help you in future to trade and you will not have to depend on anybody else for trading tips.
25  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are there any truly safe bets in sports betting? on: October 14, 2020, 09:34:25 AM
Safe bets are bet with high probability of wins. That doesn't mean the team can't still not lose and when they do, you end up losing more money than you have won. This is not rocket science, it is natural phenomenon and that is more reason to also analyze bet based on some factors such as injuries, formations, players available for selections, referee etc.

I think I would bet abit higher on bets I am more sure about after doing my thorough analysis/research on matches I want to bet on. This should increase my chances of winning the bets with higher amount, and compassate for losing the bets with lower amounts and lower chances of winning.

Make more sense because higher the probably of wining the match means betting more in that match is good option as based on your research and facts quite possible that teams or players will win it. So placing the bets on such games increases the chances of winning then placing bet on any unknown games. In the end just need to ensure that we do not put everything in one bet and only bet with amount which we can lose too will be fine.

27  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Trump gets Covid and we Crash? on: October 10, 2020, 07:45:16 AM
I am not really sure if the positive Covid test of Trump to make Bitcoin price drops or bearish on the crypto market. The Crypto market isn't owned by US government or Bitcoin price never follows US regulations. Moreover, traders or investors come from around the world, not only from the US. So, how can it make impacts on the crypto market? If there is a temporary drop in the market, some people may be playing with the FUDs.

It does not have to do anything with Trump getting positive and crypto falling. From yesterday the prices of bitcoin have started to rise ad after some time it has crossed 11k levels. Currently above 11350$ price and this clarifies that it should not have risen if it was liked to Trump’s case. Hope the prices continues to keep rising and achieve a new milestone.

We have our third round winner today and it's hector. In the last two rounds the winner had the score of 6 but in this round we have 11 points! It's amazing to see that hector had 7 correct picks out of 9 matches, and he had 4 marine point out of these 7 wins. How accurate a guy can be in his picks - the example is hector.


Congratulations buddy! @amishmanish

Edit: Round table updated. Please check OP.

Congratulation to hector for winning 3rd round. Well said regarding his accuracy his statists are like getting 7 right from 9 is not at all an easy pick and above also got those 4 margin points. This round was incredible and leading overall as well.

Today almost all till now picking Delhi it seems like 80% predicting its win and wish Delhi only wins  Smiley
29  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: 75 Crypto Exchanges have shut down since this year started and hasn't even ended on: October 08, 2020, 03:23:57 PM
This is a staggering number, and this is what we know about it. There may be some smaller exchanges which was known to very less people and thousand also be shut. Some of the exchanges may be shut because of the government or the country polices as they keep changing and making it more cumbersome for this exchange to operate. Some of them may not have a good volume to operate etc.

This is going to be an interesting round and winner will be decided only after today match. And interestingly both contenders have different choices for today’s match. So, if deadley gets it right and gets the margin correct then he wins this round else it is hector winning this round. Best luck to both of you.

It is more or less certain that hector will win this round (#3). He is far ahead of the others with 10 points from 8 matches. Deadley is second with just 8 points. None of the others have 8 or more points in this round and only one match is remaining (KXIP vs SRH). Even if Deadley gets 2 points, he won't be able to overtake hector. Anyway... let's see what happens today. Both of them have picked opposing teams for today's match.

If deadly’s choice of team win and he get the margin correct, then both will be at 10 points. But hector will have 6 win and deadly will have 7 wins and both at 10 points. So, under this circumstance deadly wins it.
This will be then same scenario as last round where we both were at same points but you had an extra win than mine, so you were awarded.
31  Economy / Economics / Re: FOLLOW THIS RULES TO BECOME RICH on: October 08, 2020, 09:05:15 AM
Good Rules to follow to become Rich, But To Become Rich depends on other things Also like Hard Work and mainly it depends on your Destiny.

Every job is hard work many times even if one's destination is right success is not possible without hard work you have to work hard and try to save money. It will play the biggest role in our lives and help us improve in the future.

Hard work is necessary but coupled with smart work helps you to know that you are putting the right efforts in right direction which will help you to achieve success much better way. No doubt luck also plays a role at times in deciding our destiny but from our end we should be ready to keep working and keep progressing from our side and leave the rest.

33  Economy / Economics / Re: The only thing goes up is debts! It’s inevitable! on: October 07, 2020, 02:58:57 PM
I’ve heard the news before about the increasing global debt and it threatens another economic crisis and unfortunately Covid-19 makes the situation more difficult to many country. Imagine those country who are not in a good position before this pandemic, they are suffering 10x right now.

Debt is inevitable, no government has no debt because this is where the money came from and corrupt officials are using this debt for their personal vendetta not all but most of them. The pandemic before and pandemic right now is totally different.

This is true they keep on taking more debt and the result is that not all of them reaches to the final consumer for what purpose they take it. In between there is so much corruption that happen in the countries that only certain percentage might reach to the actual needy. But for government they do worry much because they are in power now and in next it would be somebody else probably so tis their burden to solve crisis etc. Thus, the debt keep on rising and this pandemic has just worsened the situation.

Just like you concluded in the end, there is now a new dimension in promoting cryptocurrency which most of the DeFi projects adopt. Although, some of them still do airdrops.
And on the harsh treatment towards the hunters, we caused. How can a bounty pool for 16 weeks just $10,000 and you still see up to 3000 participants struggling for the peanuts offered mostly the social media campaigns.
I don't care anymore about small payments from a small pool...
rule number 1 so not to be disappointed when joining the current bounty program is 'don't expect too big'. and I will not want to follow carelessly the bounty program so as not to waste my time, energy, and thoughts.

When people know that there is no assurance first about the success of the project unless someone is very sure it is the future and will rise multiple times then can be part of it. Else better to join some projects where  you get paid in the btc or fixed amount in some crypto where you know you will make some money unlike in bounty program where you end up getting peanuts and not worth it.
35  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Greatest Gambling Losers on: October 07, 2020, 10:12:28 AM

Having a loss in gambling is a normal thing but not learning any lessons from it will make you lose more from gambling. Sometimes gamblers become greedy or sometimes emotions come into play which is the major cause of loses in gambling. Gamblers need to overcome these things as then only there will be more chances for the gamblers to win.
That's very true. Greed is often the reason for huge losses and only Self control can help us overcome greed.
Having self control is key a concept in gambling because that is what helps us control our losses.
Many gamblers are incapable of this and end up losing more than they could afford. It is the Greed that overcomes their capability.
I have myself encountered losses but I try to control myself from over gambling and this certainly helps me to limit my losses.


We all realize that the main cause of loss in gambling is greed, indeed the only way to prevent greed is self-control.
Without self control we can become greedy when playing gambling. Especially when we win in a row, this will lead to
the desire to continue playing gambling, which in the end we can lose all the profits that have been made. So we have
to be disciplined to control ourselves, do not greed over us. We must immediately stop playing gambling as soon as we
get a profit.

If someone just cannot control themself or lack the discipline they should stay away from gambling else it is going to be difficult for them because greed is something which cannot be control and in gambling everyone thinks it is a very quick way to make money from it. Which may become true for few people but not for all.
36  Economy / Economics / Re: People lose Faith and Hope for banking and tradional markets on: October 07, 2020, 07:52:37 AM
I'm not sure that Bitcoin will hit to $100k. Anyway almost the half of Americans trust banks less in recent years. And only 8-10% of the US citizens own Bitcoin or other cryptos. This means that most still choose cash or precious metal as a store of wealth.

In my country also very less people do hold it because of the unclear government policy and media has played a very negative role here in just highlighting the scam part about it. This has resulted in people to stay away and trust and continue to use the banking services as before.

This is really hard time as many people are going though some or other problems in their personal or professional life. Some have lost jobs , for some their salary has reduced, some some businesses have shut or no demand for their product etc and this is putting people in lot of stress and just praying all this get over quickly so that we are back to normal life .
38  Economy / Speculation / Re: Sell car for Bitcoin on: October 06, 2020, 05:22:22 PM
maybe for personal it is a good action because by selling a car that you own you can have trading capital to use trading in bitcoin and altcoin, I've read there are people who sell their homes only for bitcoin and after that the price of bitcoin becomes very expensive and the person is lucky can get a profit of more than $ 20,000,000 thanks to selling a cheap house just for bitcoin.

It all depends that if you sell anything and bough bitcoin and if price rises and you benefit then good and just in case if it falls then it is going to be a bigger problem because you lost money and now you may have to hold it or sell in a loss and again if required will have to buyback that sold item. So, if one can hold for long and does not require any specific thing then selling could be a good option.

Who is going to win Round 3?

We have two with 7 points each (Little Mouse and hector), while MoSala has 6 points. With just 3 matches remaining in this round, I don't expect anyone else to be the round winner. For me, this round turned out to be a disaster, as I received 0 points from the first two matches (made a big mistake with the SRH vs CSK match). Hope that I will be able to make a comeback for the next round (4th).

This round is disaster for me as well. For now only 2 wins and 2nd from bottom and previous round ended up being 2nd from top  Grin. So, anything is possible, and I would not rule out Rajavu, roysesuper, RapTarX and deadley who are at 5 points. One match where they take 2 points and any of the top 3 miss that so it will be equal and will depend upon other matches. Since we have 3 matches, so we have good chance for them as well to make it to top.

RCB has Aaron Finch, Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers, the players any team would dream
Lol, why would anyone dream such a batting line up combination who have never win an IPL  Grin Kidding. However, RCB with a huge batting line up, could never have a successful tournament. Also, their batsman are not consistent at all. If a player hit one century every 10 matches and hit duck on all the other matches, I doubt he could be called somewhat good batsman. RCB needs player who can play consistently and some changes in their bowling.
I'm going with MI tonight, aalthough it will be a big challenge to win for both teams.
Absolutely right you're because team contribution is more needed to win a match. Rcb has good lineup on Batting side but they aren't contributing so much. If they effort on it, hopefully they can able to come back again.

Delhi is absolutely in a good form and its batsman that is helping them to win the matches. RCB on other hand played so well a match before this and looks so much promising that they are back in winning more but again their opponent were too good for them.
Bad run for me continues and lost again ystd as well.
