2001  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Devices used for Gambling on: April 23, 2021, 11:57:51 PM
Earlier sites never give importance to the mobile device user interface. Now each and every site is developed compatible with every device. Some even has got their own applications that provides the usage experience better than that of the laptops and desktops. This is the reason why most people prefer mobile devices over laptop/desktop for gambling.

You are absolutely right that now many gambling platforms have started developing their platforms that are compatible with all devices.
Therefore it is not surprising that the number of mobile app users continues to increase,  even though there have been many changes to
the interface of the apps nowadays. But it doesn't make me comfortable playing gambling on a mobile phone, still in my opinion it's more
comfortable using a laptop. In the end, playing online gambling returns to our respective tastes, because everyone has their own favorite devices.
2002  Economy / Speculation / Re: We entered a bear market earlier than expected on: April 23, 2021, 11:10:43 PM
Bitcoin 15%- the major cypto -25% and tomorrow will be 30%- massive hit comming. You will see at 6 am when you wake up.
We enter a bear market now. I expected it to last longer but this is the end,

This the beauity of crypto is unpredictable. I am in 15k I don't sell anything and don't feel anything.

I don't think that your expectations would be possible, we aren't at bear market yet because the price still recovers quickly after falling. That's just a minor crash, many traders took their gains for the main time and eventually buy back when they've notice a cheaper price. They wouldn't sell all of their holdings as long as they hit their predicted price, and it's not yet possible to see $15k or below this year, maybe 5 years to go.

As you said Bitcoin price started to recover quickly, so there's no need to worry or panic. And as long as Bitcoin is still back at its current $ 50k price,
it is not quite right to say it is entering a bear market. I also believe some investors are starting to buy back, because the price is now the right time
to buy back Bitcoin. I also sold my partially Bitcoin for $ 61k, now planning to buy back Bitcoin. Because I believe that in the near future Bitcoin will
quickly return to above the price of $ 60k again.
2003  Economy / Economics / Re: Can the world be without poverty on: April 23, 2021, 10:08:14 PM
Lol, a world without poverty, such a beautiful dream. What would we make of that world,,, naahhh, its never going to be possible. The fact that, different or even the same thing means different thing to different people is a limitation to wealth already, as poverty relies in your ideas. Your ability to convert your mind grown thought into value and in turn wealth that would elevate you in the society.
Very few people can do that and as such, the riches of the world will continue to be limited to those who can't. So, poverty isn't going anywhere. What we could wish for is a stable or fair life but that too is likely not to happen.
Personally I was also asking why life was so unfair, I mean why there must be someone who can have a life with the previlege or simply super rich, rich and the lowest was the poor. Dreaming the world without poverty was a total in dream could only be happen because whatever may see life in any aspects and in any angle the economy of the world was designed to have a rich and poor aspects of life. So we as a person could only do was to improve our life, and improve our skills to elevate the aspect of our life.

I agree that a world without poverty is only imaginary, because after all the reality of life there is poverty and it cannot be eliminated.
Poverty will always exist, but what is interesting is that not all poor people will always be poor, as well as the rich. Not all rich people will
become rich forever, sometimes people's fate can change. Depending on how we live, that's why many people work hard to make money,
because they don't want to be poor.

Basically  no matter how long you play gambling on each session wont make you addicted to gambling if you can control yourself. I also have a friend who gamble almost every single day but he is not addicted as he can start and stop it anytime anywhere as he wish. Addiction is the time when you cant control yourself, you do not know when to start and when to stop. As long as you know it, you wont be addicted. The same applies for video games such as Playstation. I myself also gambling almost everyday because of some competition, I'm not addicted obviously as I have a limit for myself. Limit for both time and money.

It's a good thing if you can actually play gambling every day without becoming addicted, because not everyone can be like you. In my opinion,
it is not easy to control myself, it needs process and practice. I am also currently in the process of learning to be able to control myself when
gambling. Even though until now I still fail to be able to control myself properly, so I don't dare to play gambling every day.

~
Limiting the time to play gambling will always be suggested to all gamblers to help them prevent the addiction. But unfortunately, not many gamblers will do that because once they found the excitement of playing gambling, they will forget about limitations and play longer than usual.

We might see many friends who are playing gambling finally become addicting to gambling and we can not do something for them because they do not want to get help from us. But we can at least try to give something that may be worth it for them and we can always warn them about the danger of playing gambling for some time.

As you said there are still many gamblers who fail to limit themselves in playing gambling, because it must be admitted if we have found
excitement in playing gambling. Without realizing it, we will continue to play gambling until our capital runs out. Therefore, when playing
gambling, we really have to train how we are committed to the decisions we have made. So that we can limit ourselves when playing gambling.
Then advising friends is what we have to do, but the way we advise someone must be in a good way. Don't let the friends we advise feel
offended by the words we use.
2005  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you limit your gambling time? on: April 23, 2021, 01:20:31 AM
I always limit my time to play gambling, because that is my way to prevent gambling addiction. The thing is I have a friend who is addicted
to gambling and whose life is ruined, I don't want that to happen to me either. Because I know that the longer we gamble, the harder it is
for us to control ourselves. Because if I already play games on the PlayStation, it's hard to stop, because every time I lose, I'm always
curious to win. And it can happen in the world of gambling too, If I do not limit the time I play gambling there is the potential to become addicted.
2006  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you trust USDT? on: April 22, 2021, 11:38:58 PM
Currently USDT is a relatively stable coin in the cryptocurrency market, but USDT is influenced by someone who keeps USDT coins stable, I myself am a little hesitant about investing in USDT because it could be a scam.
USDT coin is one of the best coins that I hold and I have not faced any problems with it, I only buy it when I want to freeze my money to make it stable so that it does not decrease after the market dump and I do not think it will be a scam because there are many investors who trust it and depend on it.

If there are still people who still think that USDT will be a scam, means he hasn't been in the crypto world that long. Or do not have knowledge
and experience in the crypto world, because USDT may not be a scam. Judging from the poll results, we can actually conclude that USDT is
very trusted by the majority of people in the crypto world. That means a lot of people trust USDT. Even USDT is always in the top 10 cryptos
and has a higher volume than Bitcoin. It all proves USDT is worthy of trust, I like you have never experienced problems when using USDT.
2007  Economy / Speculation / Re: Game over to Bitcoin Time to sell all on: April 22, 2021, 11:02:35 PM
Bitcoin has a massive crash and it's going to be down and down.
We enter a bear market. dark time for btc.
now is not the time to sell bitcoin but time to buy bitcoin because bitcoin price has gone down. suppose anyone buys bitcoins at $ 10k it is okay to sell the bitcoins they have to enjoy the profits because they have held them for quite a long time. I also suggest that bitcoin holders who buy bitcoin at the most expensive price are better off holding back because one day the price of bitcoin will definitely go up again.

I agree with you that please sell Bitcoin if we buy Bitcoin at a low price, because it has already made a profit. But if we buy Bitcoin when
the price is high, why sell it, because Bitcoin will soon rise again. My advice is to be patient with current market conditions, because it is
common for Bitcoin to be corrected after experiencing a very high rise. If we have extra money now is the right time to buy Bitcoin,
because the current price of $ 51k is very low in my opinion.
2008  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: April 22, 2021, 10:18:00 PM
It is now official.

Ibrahimovic extended by 1 year his contract with Milan.
It will be really good to watch Ibrahimovic at Milan more. Despite his age, he is still playing superbly and making a big contribution to the team. He scored 17 goals and made 3 assists in this season so far.

This is news that AC Milan fans have been waiting for, because Ibrahimovic's contribution is very big for Milan. So it is indeed the right decision
for Milan to extend Ibrahimovic's contract until June 2022. Moreover, it is evident that at the age of 39 Ibrahimovic is still productive and
playing well. Hopefully Ibrahimovic can play soon, because the last game Milan suffered a 1-2 defeat to Sassuolo without the presence of
Ibrahimovic who was still injured.
2009  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Who’s more powerful? The players, Fans or Clubs on: April 22, 2021, 04:41:28 AM
The players and the clubs satisfied the demand of the fans they are the market and the true boss of any sports, without the fans there's no games, no sales, and the organization cannot keep up with running a team, no organizations can sustain without revenues, which they get from fans who are buying tickets and paying pay per view subscriptions, the players and the clubs exist because of the fans.
So the fans are the key for the sports to become popular and without them, the sports will not get popularity and will not make money. Even if the fans do not have much money like the boss, the organization, the club owner, the fans can do many things to make the sports can not get what they want. So the club owner and the boss behind the organization need to understand that and they need to serve their fans.

Therefore, many big teams do everything for the sake of the fans, because like you said sports without fans will not make money.
Why did many big European teams toured Asia before the COVID-19 pandemic occurred, because they wanted to add fans from Asia.
Then many big European teams bought Asian players. Like Liverpool buying Takumi Minamino, it was all done to please the fans.
The more fans of a team, the richer the team will be, therefore I strongly agree that in the world of sports fans are the strongest.
2010  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC's crisis time is coming on: April 22, 2021, 02:55:24 AM
I saw a lot of games on Doge by Bigboys, but not by BTC. hasn't bitcoin gone up significantly in the last few months? so to maintain a healthy market, and maintain purchasing power, a correction is very reasonable.
after all, btc's position is very strong in the market, so there's no need to worry. I am surprised at the outstanding fud, this is only a small derivative and the price is still high. isn't this a chance to fill the bag more?
Correction is a need for bitcoin to be able to move and jump to higher prices and make altcoins move and I agree with the friend above. indeed corrections need not be feared and bitcoin has often done that and bitcoin will be able to bounce back higher. no need to panic and is an opportunity if you have the funds to save bit by bit from the decline in bitcoin.

That's what I'm doing right now by buying more Bitcoin little by little, when the Bitcoin price is correcting. But in fact there are still many people
who panic by seeing the current corrected Bitcoin price. Even though as you have said, the correction needs to occur, in order to make the Bitcoin
price rise even higher. So we really have to think positively about the current decline in Bitcoin prices.
2011  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: April 21, 2021, 11:40:05 PM
Dortmund vs Union Berlin

In today's match Dortmund must win the match from Union Berlin so that the opportunity to reach the top four can be maintained. Even though Dortmund and Union Berlin both won their last match but I think Dortmund can be counted on today to win the match.
Well, Borussia Dortmund did win their tie at home to Berlin; it was a 2 nil victory; which has positioned Dortmund to the 5th position on the log; 4 points away from champions league places in the league. With 4 game week left in the season; can Dortmund benefit from any slip ups to make champions league ?

Dortmund's victory against Union Berlin is very important, because it makes Dortmund closer to the points that Wolfsburg and Frankfurt have.
Bundesliga matches only 4 matches left, there is no other way Dortmund should win the remaining 4 games. Especially the next match will be
against Wolfsburg, this is a very important match for both teams. It will be a very interesting match, because both teams will try to win the match
to be able to play in the Champions League next season.
2012  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: April 21, 2021, 10:44:59 PM
The Verona vs Fiorentina match ended with a Fiorentina win, and this surprised me quite a bit.
Don't be so surprised!
Sometimes the result of the match is unpredictable.
By the way, Fiorentina isn't a small or weak team. They are actually stronger than Verona. Even, they have some famous players there. So, it is very possible if they win against Verona. They just couldn't play solidly in the last few matches. They need to play more solid and effective if they want to win consistently.

I agree that is what is so interesting about football, sometimes the results are surprising. I admit that Fiorentina is not a small team and there are
some big names who play at Fiorentina, but in my opinion Verona is much more solid and effective in terms of play. Therefore, Verona's position is
above Fiorentina, but indeed the quality of Fiorentina players is much better than Verona. So if I think about it, it's possible to beat Verona.
Hopefully Fiorentina can play more consistently going forward. Moreover, next time Fiorentina will face Juventus, this is a very tough match for Fiorentina.

Juventus won 3-1 today, I feel quite happy to see it can be the top 3 and has a chance to overtake Milan. The gap is only 1 point now. Let's hope Atalanta has a bad day once they against Roma tomorrow. Roma is strong enough to defeat Atalanta, moreover Roma will play at home. I am pretty sure if Juventus will be in second place again in the near future.  Smiley

It turns out that I am not the one who hopes for Roma to beat Atalanta, so that Juventus can immediately move up to second place. But I am
a little worried about Roma, if I see Roma's inconsistent performance. Of the last 5 matches Roma was only able to win once, while Atalanta's
last 5 matches won in a row. Hopefully a miracle happens Roma can wins the match against Atalanta.

The market had already changed and it happens every day. Does history repeat itself? It is just a story in the past and we can't compare it this time and much more to think that it gonna happen again similarly.

2017/2018, I can really remember those years and how the market behaves that time but we are in far different now. Some indications are;
*growing number of crypto users/investors
*adoption has gone strong (includes big and know companies)
*Crypto gambling institutions are growing

All these things had made a lot of changes and that continues to grow day by day.
Indeed, the adoption today is different from previous years. Institutions or organizations I believe, has strong faith now more than ever towards crypto. They have seen the potential of crypto during this pandemic crisis. And how it will influence the current payment market. Before, a lot of these companies were throwing negative things towards crypto, and look at now, they change their stance and collecting their own bitcoin stash. So I don't think it will crash the way it did in previous years, there may be drops but not that massive where people will lose trust.

What distinguishes the crypto market this year from 2017, because more and more institutions are investing long-term in Bitcoin.
This makes the crypto market more trusted by many people, in fact, very many people end up moving their assets elsewhere into crypto.
Because in addition to the huge profits made from crypto investments, some coins are now widely used for payments too. So the positive
trend continues to approach the crypto world, the future of crypto will be even brighter. So when the crypto market declined like it is today,
Investors do not panic easily, this will make the current price decline that should not last long.

Unfortunately, not much happened after the first two goals. Leverkusen had a period in the second half where they were close to score a goal and where they hit the crossbar but beside of that the match after the first 2 goals was pretty much over. That was a disappointing performance of Leverkusen. Bayern is now 10 points ahead of Leipzig.
Also Schalke is now officially relegated they managed to lose two times against bielefeld in one season, therefore they really deserve to go down to the second league.
I was really shocked by the result of Koln - Leipzig game which ended with the victory of Koln (2-1). Leipzig found too many goal chances and they found the target in one fourth of 23 shots in total. They lost the game despite being very dominant. As the point difference is 10 now, I think Bayern are already the champions.

Not only are you surprised to know the results of the Koln vs Leipzig match, but fans of the Bundesliga will definitely be surprised by Koln's victory.
This is a very embarrassing result for Leipzig, the previous match which ended in a draw against Hoffenheim and now being beaten by a team from
the relegation area is unbelievable. With the defeat of Leipzig this made the difference in points with Bayern even further, and only 4 games left,
it is very unlikely that Leipzig can catch up to Bayern's points. I also believe that Bayern will definitely be champions.

Tuesday 20th April
Verona 1 2 Fiorentina FT

Turn already started and Fiorentina won.

The Verona vs Fiorentina match ended with a Fiorentina win, and this surprised me quite a bit. Because my prediction that Verona will win
the match, especially in the previous meeting, Fiorentina playing home can only draw. And Fiorentina's position is below Verona, then saw
the match statistics for Verona to dominate the match. But Fiorentina managed to beat Verona. This is a very good result for Fiorentina after
4 previous matches without a win, now finally managed to improve the performance of the game by winning matches. And this is a very bad
result for Verona to be defeated three times in a row.
2016  Economy / Economics / Re: Why you can't be rich by owning crypto on: April 20, 2021, 07:33:51 AM
Not everyone will be rich if they have cryptocurrency, because the main purpose of cryptocurrency is not to make people rich. Only people who
can be patient buying cryptocurrencies for long-term investments can get rich from cryptocurrencies. So do not take it wrong, cryptocurrency
won't make us rich instantly, requires a long process so that we can get rich from cryptocurrency. Therefore having cryptocurrency will not
guarantee you to be rich.
I agree with this position. Only the long term perspective of investing in cryptocurrency and bitcoin will make you rich. Remember, that fiat currencies can be printed in unlimited quantities. And the amount of bitcoin is limited and, moreover, is reduced due to the lost coins.

But be careful not all cryptocurrencies are good for long-term investing, only the top cryptocurrencies and have high volume which is good
for long-term investments. So if we choose the wrong coins, it is not getting rich if HODL is in the long run, but the coins are increasingly worthless.
So make sure to do research first on the coins that we will buy for long-term investments. For Bitcoin it is definitely highly recommended holding
in the long term, I mean to be careful if we choose to invest in altcoins. Because not all altcoins are good to buy and can make us rich.
2017  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League Discussion Thread on: April 19, 2021, 11:17:08 PM
Europe Super League give us moment how confused with UEFA and FIFA faced this problem after 12 teams declare to make this league with fantastic money receiving if participated, I think UEFA and FIFA have evoluation how their progress right now with financial transparent, maybe any club not get much money during UEFA and FIFA get much from television and sponsorship.

That's right, especially UEFA Europa League participation and winning prizes are a big joke. None of these major clubs are interested in winning the cup except that Champions League participation right -if they are in bad position in their local league, just like Arsenal-, but this is not the case anymore since they introduced European Super League. UEFA should reconsider everything until it's too late, they should increase prize pool first. The Europa League reputation is pretty low right now.

I am among those who support the Europe Super League, because UEFA is not very worthy of giving prizes for the winners of the Europa League.
And also because it is not transparent about the finances managed by UEFA, it has made several big teams like Arsenal and Manchester United
upset with UEFA. Moreover, the income of big clubs during the pandemic has decreased and player salaries have continued to rise, if UEFA remains
arrogant with its decisions, very reasonable 12 teams decided to move to play in the Europa Super League. Despite the risk, the possibility of
Arsenal and Manchester United being expelled from the Europa League.
2018  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2020/2021 on: April 19, 2021, 10:45:41 PM
All said and done, Liverpool must not just find a way to secure champions legue football next season, they must find a way to win football matches again. The attacking trio of Mana, Firmino and Salah have looked "found out" this season. Aside th 7-0 in against Crystal Palace to game comes to mind when you think of Liverpool properly inning a game this season. Liverpool, it must be said, have had a terrible season in terms of injuries (and VAR decisions) but their sitution hasn't been helped  by some of the rong coaching decisions Klopp has made over the season, most notably, sacrificing the midfielder to fill in the defendive position. However, with the remaining EPL fixtures, I strongly believe that Liverpool will secure Champions league football next season.

Liverpool's struggle is indeed very tough to get into the Champions League spot, because Liverpool have to improve themselves so they don't keep
dropping points. The match against Leeds should have Liverpool been able to get 3 points, but because the match ended in a draw. So Liverpool have
to be satisfied with only getting 1 point. Even though Liverpool need a lot of points to be able to move up to at least 4th position. Fortunately Leicester's
form is on the decline and West Ham are starting to get inconsistent, this gives Liverpool the opportunity to enter the Champions League spot.
2019  Economy / Speculation / Re: How low could Bitcoin go this time? after all good news is out on: April 19, 2021, 10:37:49 AM
Don't panic. Zoom out the charts and you'll realize that it's in good shape that you're missing out. If there's blood, you should be getting more bitcoins if it happens.
Don't miss the train and think there is no more good news. We need them but we need more to see the market as a whole and check the pattern that upon zooming out.
That's right, if we look at bitcoin chart for 1 year and all from coindesk. We are still doing great actually. What more can we ask from this? People are really not contented for what bitcoin has achieved so far. It is hard to predict how low will bitcoin go. But in my opinion, it will not go down below 40k. A lot of good things (financial institutions buying large amount of btc, integration of crypto payment in paypal and tesla, and many other things) already happened to bitcoin this year, and I believe, that will make the bitcoin market more solid and hard to have massive crash.
There's a possibility that they've bought at the top and now complaining that they are only seeing the reds of bitcoin. But to us, we've got no problem on it because we've been through a lot on this market and witnessed several dips and recoveries. This is nothing compare from what we've been up to today because those all time highs were really unbelievable gains and great to see that it happened.

The correction that is happening to Bitcoin at the moment is still normal and there is nothing to worry about, I am optimistic Bitcoin will not drop
below the $ 50k price. In fact, based on the analysis that I did, this week Bitcoin could go back up again above the price of $ 60k. I agree with you,
those who complain about the current decline in the price of Bitcoin, are probably those who bought Bitcoin at the peak price and have not
experienced investing in Bitcoin. For those of you who have experienced investment in 2017/2018, they must see a decline in the price of
Bitcoin as commonplace. So just be patient for those who buy Bitcoin at the peak price, because surely Bitcoin will return to the ATH price of $ 64k again.
