21  Economy / Economics / Re: People hoarding anime, Nintendo Switch, manga, figurine, all weaboos collectible on: April 12, 2020, 01:39:14 PM
During global lock down. Damn we have reached new low!

I think Nintendo Switch are hoarded because majority of userbase is masculine, while Sony is majority feminist userbase. Smarty girls combine Nintendo Switch, animal crossing/fitness yoga, masculine userbase, patreon donation platform, and voila a cash generator in time of crisis!

Not going to touch the extreme stuff like anime, manga, figurine, etc.

It’s new world order!

I think most people using this time to connect with people through the internet. yes, most of the girl are doing yoga and fitness and putting video on social media and youtube and making money for sure. there's lots of way you can earn money online you just need to find away. also, many people just spending time with family and watching movie, tv series, anime or plying Indore game.

For the people in this community that understand spanish, I wanted to share this video I created yesterday comparing the current situation with the different crisis we had in the last 100 years.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rs5Yyvih14M&list=PLz_NVO61eqw70kA4Z9z854OoyibpDpOuq&index=2

Do you think it will be uglier than the others?
 
All feedback is welcome to keep improving!:)


many countries are recovering from coronavirus while some are just getting started so this crisis is not going to end soon. this might take a year or maybe more not sure since there is no cure. but if you think country based that might not be the same case. let's all hope its end soon.
23  Economy / Economics / Re: returning to normal on: April 04, 2020, 06:17:26 AM
there's a new narrative emerging that life will never return to normal after the coronavirus pandemic:

Quote
I don't think people realize that there is no normal to go back to anymore.

At absolute minimum:

1) Supply & demand has been reallocated across the economy, with travel & events zero'd out, remote work & masks to infinity
2) Virus permanently changes public behavior
3) Supply chain disruption just starting

Even if the virus did vanish in a puff of smoke and everyone went "back to work", the behavior of billions of people and every country has been permanently changed.

Demand won't quickly come back, borders won't easily reopen, international relations won't be the same.

Which industries will die off first because of pandemic?

The obvious one for me is the movie theaters but what else?

https://twitter.com/needacoin/status/1246191483746574337

what do you think---are entire industries about to disappear because of the pandemic? will some aspects of the economy and general life irreversibly change after this?

or are these people just drama queens who are blowing everything out of proportion? maybe people will forget all about the coronavirus in a couple years time and nothing will change. that's what happened after the H1N1 scare.

with time people will forget about coronavirus and they will act like before because in 20 centuries we saw many viruses and we forgot it in no time so I don't think this will be different. although some people might lose job and some industries might stop working but some will replace those so its same cycle.
24  Economy / Economics / Re: What China is hiding from us and are they doing it to save their economy? on: April 04, 2020, 06:11:00 AM
As many people think coronavirus is created by China and they did to crush other economy but I don't think that's what they did but some information came to light that gives us some dought about China's action. as far as we know death in China is a total of 3800+ but is it a real number? Did they hide the real numbers to protect their economy? what those pictures tell us!






Well China took some serious measure to ensure the social distance, there are a lot of materials on social media, this is why the number of the casualties in China is lower compared with Europe or US.

They are disciplined is what you are saying. That is true though, I've watched a lot of my countrymen in China talking how disciplined and how they follow the protocols and policies in quarantine. It is possible because also of the help of their government that knows what to do in terms of that crisis.

it's not that they are only disciplined there government made sure everyone follows protocols like they're in the war which is why now there almost free from coronavirus right now and now they are making money while other country is facing crisis.
25  Economy / Economics / Re: What China is hiding from us and are they doing it to save their economy? on: April 03, 2020, 12:13:59 PM
No way China would prepare something like this, corona is a virus, it is not a biological weapon. Plus china was doing quite alright before all of this started, why would they need to release a virus to the world?

I mean they were churning up profits like crazy and even with the trade disagreements and all the things going on they literally had TRILLIONS of dollars in bank accounts and they were basically buying up stuff all around the world. No way they would want to risk that, now they have to give a break and take care of this virus first and then they can come back, this doesn't only hurt on their land, it hurts other places as well, so it is quite unprofitable for them in every step of the way. If china wasn't doing so well and this helped them I would have understood, but its not like that.
manny people think china did that to destroy the USA or European country's economy and some people agree its natural virus and its been with us long time they just become strong recently which may be caused by global warming.
26  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Simple trading advise for newbe that should follow on: April 03, 2020, 12:08:21 PM
Also dont buy the FOMO most newbie's buy or sell when the price moves either to the upside and downside. If you have a target and indicator that it will go to that price be patient and dont panic when the market moves. I always get victimized by this, cause i supposed i was not really that experienced.

I think patience is the key to success in trade no matter what market you trade from my experience I saw including myself losing money because they lack patience.
27  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: CORONAVIRUS IMPACT ON SPORTS GAMBLING on: April 03, 2020, 12:04:31 PM
Now that almost all sporting events all over the world are cancelled, those wanting bet of sports events are left with having to find alternatives. What are the majority doing?

Are some giving up and trying to become reformed gamblers?

Are some gambling on casinos instead?

What are alternatives most sports betting users are now switching to?



well, we are all in a really bad situation because of lockdown so maybe most people just spending time with there family. and there are lots of games or sports that can be played online maybe there betting on those games or sports.

Just friendly advice, you can edit your post reply in at once and don't make double replies in one row. Because it looks like you are spamming your own thread. And this is also a part of forum rules.
32. Posting multiple posts in a row (excluding bumps and reserved posts by the thread starter) is not allowed.
I hope it makes sense now.

Back to your topic, I don't who is going to blame about this pandemic virus that was made by China, people there? Or maybe they are also a victim here. We don't know the real reason behind the scene who is manipulating and cheating but let just assume that it is a calamity and we are all victims on this COVID-19 that keep spreading. There is hiding or none, we should secure of self and stay safe of the sid decease.
China's government is very clever when it comes to the economy but we can't accuse them right at this moment.

agree we should stop putting blame on others and work on to help people those need in this situation and save ourselves and our family right now all we can do stay home and that's how we fight coronavirus. lets all work together for the sake of humanity and we shouldn't treat badly any animal.
29  Economy / Economics / Re: Chinese Strategy? on: April 02, 2020, 04:49:19 PM
I guess China have the vaccine. It means they already made the vaccine. They are hiding it from the world.

then why is china locking down whole regions again? https://www.nytimes.com/reuters/2020/04/01/world/asia/01reuters-health-coronavirus-china-county.html

and closing all movie theaters nationwide? https://variety.com/2020/biz/entertainment-industry/china-moves-to-re-shutter-all-cinemas-nationwide-1203546923/

i assume it's because they don't have a vaccine. Wink

there's already plenty of shit to talk about china---no need for these conspiracy theories.

China is just looking to make money in this crisis and that's why they're lying about vaccine and since China has successfully overcome the worst situation many people will believe whatever China will tell.
30  Economy / Economics / Re: What China is hiding from us and are they doing it to save their economy? on: April 02, 2020, 04:34:15 PM
To imagine that a country would kill its own population for money is very bizarre. This virus in my opinion is more linked to a lack of social structure than to an economic plan.

I think that too but there are people are fighting about it and everyday new information coming in light and it's making it more complicated.
31  Economy / Economics / Re: What China is hiding from us and are they doing it to save their economy? on: April 02, 2020, 04:26:43 PM
After corona virus attack United State now both countries look friendly and forget about how war market economic before both them, now China try to help United State how to improved and get back United State people from corona virus attack.

that's good for both countries and I saw in news American scientists telling coronavirus is not boi-weapon is a natural disease and its been with us long time coronavirus changed and become dangerous recently and I hope this report is true. stay safe everyone and if possible help those who are suffering most in this crisis.
32  Economy / Economics / Re: Chinese Strategy? on: April 01, 2020, 04:04:33 PM
Remember that china is an isolated nation which means that no information could easily go in or out in the country.

Biological weapon has started since Sars, that is why the Covid is a strain version 2. Using their own people is an intelligent move to hide their true motives.
It is the reason why there are countries who have been discriminating China that instead they are calling the virus Covid-19 or corona virus, they have been calling it chinese virus in social media like Facebook, Twitter and Reddit. Chinese government is really not showomg the full details on where is the virus came from that is why they are being victim of racism.

There are places in China that are open like the Hongkong and Singapore, its the mainland that is isolated. People had been discrimination Chinese since time, we all know the world leaders doesn't want the orients to set the pace. Its probably the reason why the Chinese are up to do great things, we've for recognized it on books.  

They may have planned this virus or not but the discipline they have had pay off because their economy is almost not affected.

maybe they have planed this virus not sure but if china doesn't revel truth we will never know what really happened.
33  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Bitcoin fall bellow 3000$ and Gold price will increase? on: April 01, 2020, 04:01:00 PM
i dont think people are looking for investments especially when on diffcult times like this because can they carry thier investments with them when die ? sorry to use the word die but this is the reality that is happening right now  .

 also its hard to find a market that will accept these kind of investments since most markets are still close or will be closing  but btc is still easier to market but then again only few people right now are investing  althought the value of btc already recovered a little and i think it will now be stable at this point   .

people who have enough money they will invest because they need to earn or they don't want to loss money so they might choose gold or BTC since they give them hope that their money value will stay the same.
34  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Bitcoin fall bellow 3000$ and Gold price will increase? on: April 01, 2020, 03:57:40 PM
Gold price increased, that was one part of the question that nobody really considered to be important. Sure, bitcoin didn't go under 3k, it never really had a chance to go under 3k, look at even the lowest point of this year, we had 3.6k and that was probably just a couple hours long thing and not a long time thing, when looking back in the future we will say that 2020 lowest point was 3.6k for technical reasons but honestly 5k was the real lowest, because we dropped under 5k for couple hours but never really stayed under 5k for 24 hours straight so we can't really say that was a thing of importance.

Regardless of that we can say that gold was very important and still is important to people who want store of value so it dropped a bit first but now recovering.

I saw in the news when china was in isolation people were selling other asset and buying gold and I think people believe gold will stay stable more than BTC and even now I can't really tell if BTC stable and maybe it didn't go 3k that time but no one know it won't go chance is really high that BTC will go below 3k.

Did they hide the real numbers to protect their economy? what those pictures tell us!

I don't understand most of that picture since it is Chinese but I am also starting to be curious how well the Chinese handled the situation in their country. If you will be looking at this list, you could see how China has a lot of people recovered from the virus. Despite them being the origin, the USA and Italy are now topping the list with the most cases. And then Spain buys medical equipment worth 432 million euros from China.

It is really confusing and hard to understand which one is true we will have to wait for the truth to be revel but will we able to find the real story about what happened? I dought it

China is really good at manipulating their economy because most of them value money over everything and they prioritize their financial aspects in their lives. It is impossible that the virus originated from them and still their economy didn't have any changes and is still stable. It seems suspicious that China already had the vaccine because right now, the number of people recovering in their country is still increasing and the number of cases are stable and decreasing. Somehow, it is too obvious that most of our products and goods came from them and they are the no.1 sources of our food, medicines, and etc., that;s why they don't experience market crash. It is more likely that this Covid-19 is a China's plan so that they will affect the economy of US which is their no. 1 competitor in many aspects.

Yes, good point. I remembered my Chinese Boss when the quarantine is not yet imposed, he told us that we should not believe what their government or tv news saying because some of it were just covered up to their plans or mistakes. He did mentioned that there are a lot of dirty things happening on their country, so when I heard that I read some articles and found out this suspicious article released by one of the highest rank on their team which was on mission for covid-19, he tell there that the virus was just a made up plan of china. This is hard to believe but anything could be possible either negative or positive. Also China is now the country that has a lot of recovered patients thinking that the virus is originated there, they also provide the number of deaths but I'm thinking that they are manipulating us about this data. Also they are now selling vaccines to different countries which helps them to prevent or fight the virus. Well, i don't know what is the truth about these stuff, whatever it is, time will reveal it.

well I know it's really hard to guess which one is true but there is many theory going on and China is really good at hiding the truth so maybe we will never know the truth about what really happened.
36  Economy / Economics / Re: What China is hiding from us and are they doing it to save their economy? on: April 01, 2020, 03:41:35 PM
Conspiracy theories aside, one thing we know for sure is China hasn't been including asymptomatic cases in its confirmed totals. The CDC currently thinks asymptomatic cases represent up to 25% of all cases. Some models say even more.

The Chinese government announced that starting today they would include asymptomatic cases in the official count: https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/31/asia/china-asymptomatic-coronavirus-cases/index.html
WTF, so they have been cheating all this time... No wonder the data is so abnormal. If they can do this kind of manipulation, maybe they even did the test only for patients with symptoms. This incompetence could cause so many carriers have been roaming freely on the streets.

because of that now the whole world in this crisis and going through the economy fall which will leave a huge number of people jobless and crime will rise again.

I have heard about the Chernobyl incident and I haven't watched series yet but I will watch soon.
It's a different case, Chernobyl was a nuclear reactor failure.

they hid real number because they don"t wants their people fear it and to save there economy from dropping now they are making money while other countries in lockdown.
I think it's more to save their asses from sanctions and UN intervention (about closing their wild animal markets).

It may not be a conspiracy but it can surely be a fuck-up while exploring about some sort of strategic advantage from bio-attacks.
But scientists have predicted this event would occur. We can find a lot of SARS 1.0 paper stating similar statements.

What we learn is that:
- China didn't learn from SARS 1.0;
- China didn't take the SARS 2.0 seriously;
- China doesn't want to take responsibility.

I don't think there is financial benefit on top of this pandemic, since all markets are connected.

 here I fund news here they're saying that in Wuhan coronavirus death count of approximately 2,500 deaths to date, with most people believing the actual number is at least 40,000. this tells cina are not really telling us real number  and maybe we will never know how many died.

maybe I saw this articlehttps://www.nationalreview.com/news/border-patrol-stopped-a-chinese-biologist-carrying-viable-sars-mers-viruses-at-detroit-airport-in-2018/  and I was shocked
39  Economy / Economics / Re: What China is hiding from us and are they doing it to save their economy? on: March 31, 2020, 04:34:50 PM
This conspiracy theory needs to be carefully managed on the social media, though it looks like China is taking advantage of early recovery from the pandemic. Everything points to the country, from the low level of the so called 'collateral damage', early resumption of trade/market and war against Donald Trump. I am avoiding every discussion in the line but I am looking at the opportunity the crypto space can take from the crisis to gain more adoption and have a high price at the next bull market.

well for media its hot topic to gain popularity more conspiracy theory with solid points give everyone doubt and people look for more update which gives them an opportunity to earn money and crypto is rising in this crisis making the high chance that government will recognize more but if crypto falls when crisis over it will not look good for crypto so I hope crypto stay stable.
40  Economy / Economics / Re: What China is hiding from us and are they doing it to save their economy? on: March 31, 2020, 04:28:07 PM
If we talk about the data from China, I would say it is questionable because even South Korea (+125) --a country that has equal experience dealing with SARS 1.0-- reported more new infected patients than China (+79). https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/

However, It doesn't mean it is some kind of conspiracy. More likely because they just didn't do enough testing.
It may not be a conspiracy but it can surely be a fuck-up while exploring about some sort of strategic advantage from bio-attacks. I don't think the Chinese are above these things. After the fuck-up, the spread issue has been real for them. They are a communist country along the lines of Soviet Russia. Haven't we all seen enough Chernobyl on Amazon Prime to see the parallels about "Everything is right here"? They have claimed all sort of things from the beginning and now they are declaring to the world that they are infection-free, by ignoring the cases that test positive but are asymptomatic.


I have heard about the Chernobyl incident and I haven't watched series yet but I will watch soon. As for bio-attack, we are not sure yet let's hope it's not bio-attack.
