and for people to survive, they don't need to wait for the government's actions. as early as they feel they need to secure themselves, they should. there are so many ways how to save or keep afloat during this type of crisis. first, you need to monitor your expenses and see where you can cut down your spending. discard unnecessary gadgets by selling them, prepare your own food, are just few things you can do to help yourself.
Things like this do not need to wait for the government and we also cannot hope that even if the government guarantees the welfare of its citizens it is necessary, but when facing a situation like this we also cannot depend on others.
We have a mind that can be used to do something from now on even though the current financial condition and inflation are threatening, but we can't stay silent while waiting for help because it's better if there is help that comes what in the worst case there is no help.
One's self is the key to sustaining life and there is no need to wait for the help of others to stay alive.

Only lazy people will rely on governments help and if many people will follow what others did like asking some help then for those to come maybe they suffer from hunger since government action takes time since for sure this will have a delay due to more people seek for help. That's why we need to take action towards this and use our strength to find opportunity to earn money so that we don't need to wait for any help since we can sustain ourselves to buy the things we need.

Without Myles Powell, this Dragon will easily be slayed by other team. The game against Ginebra wasn't fair IMO, I mean as a fan I'm not satisfied as I like to see if they can stop the Dragon with Myles Powell. It's a fair playing ground, otherwise, this guest team would not be accepted in the PBA.
Yes you are right that mate without myles Powell this team bay area dragons are not the strongest team it is easily beat by our local team as we all know that during the days when myles Powell is in Bay Area dragon the best teamwork is there and another thing is when myles handle the ball for sure the ball will be passed to the open teammates but now this team without him are easy to lose by our local team's.

I have to disagree with you both. Bay Area Dragons is still a tough team even without Powell. It's just that the Dragons now faced a considered one of the tough teams in the league compared to their early opponents (although NorthPort almost beat them).

And besides, why overhype with the Dragons even with Powell or not? Even prior to the start of the current conference, I never even treat them as an unbeatable team. I even said before that Ginebra might be the one to give the Dragons their first defeat although not considering it a big deal since this guest team is like just any other team in the league on the high-tier level.

At least based on how I looked at them.
Their game against the NorthPort where they almost got beaten is the reason why I changed how I see the Dragons.
Maybe some people are overhyping the Dragons because on how they played in their first game where they just bulldozed the Bossing and won by 40+ points IIRC. Or maybe because they have a 7-foot 5-inch player Cheesy.

Both of their imports are strong in their own ways. Powell is strong in fastbreak, shooting and a good guard as well. Nicholson on the other hand is strong in defense and good in shooting as well. Maybe if there is a problem with the Dragons, it's that they have no guard that can par or at least equal what Powell is doing with the team.

Like you, I don't see them as an unbeatable team as well because if that's the case then the desire of the people to watch PBA games will go even lower because they already know that their favorite team will not win against them. At least now fans see that the Dragons are not unbeatable though they are one of the strongest teams right now. I wonder how they will play in their remaining games knowing that the teams that they will be facing are some of the best teams.

We've seen how Ginebra beat them, the hype is already lost, I mean they are still a good team and a competitive team but they are not the best team in the PBA now although they might be in the number 1 standing. Ginebra did really exposed them, that's why other teams that will face them in their next games might be confident in the game.

1 lost doesn't indicate that they might lost consecutively we can consider that they having a bad day and Ginebra is lucky for that time. Its so early to tell that BAC will automatically lost for the rest of their game. They are still the team to beat so let see on their next match if they can pick their selves up since for sure they are also surprised seeing how ginebra perform at that time.

Maybe sometimes there's a success stories towards those low cap or even the below the top 50 but still it doesn't guarantee anything. Maybe you are lucky if you spot it on its earliest but you also need to consider the numerous scams there so its quite risky to think that you became rich from that since rampant scamming always happen on new shit tokens.

That also mean that even though how successful the strategy to the person who said it still the person who copy it cannot assure to replicate the result since it will all matter the level of patience and how consistent the people are to do such strategy what they call. Also we cannot fully rely on this since for sure every phase have different result and might we cannot use this always.

So its good for every to develop different methods so that they can be consistent on their own trades without relying on someones ideas.

And that's why, if one could have the ability to analyze and be able to get methods from other people, it would probably yield better results for him. Patience and consistency also play a role in trying every method or strategy because we don't know which will work for us.

This will vary only on persons dedications if they could learn something from people who's experience doing some good trades since if they just follow them without absorbing the knowledge or information they get from multiple experience traders they didn't get anything from them. So consistency is always the main key to learn from trading since if he could apply what other and his experience for sure he will became more better trader and can able generate profits for that.

Hey guys!
Some of us are occupied in i-Gaming industry, some are just players...but apart from leisure&profession there are still old good offline casinos all around the world.
Today Im thinking if visiting an offline casino is out of date or still a good place to visit while travelling?
Do you visit casinos when you travel? How often? Which ones?
Let's remember of old good times Cheesy

Mostly not because for traveling I make sure that I am away from other things that can cause me stress and casino is one of that. I prefer to be peaceful at the beach and disconnect to other disturbing matter since I want to be at piece. But if you prefer to gamble on your vacation then its your choice since at the end of the day you are the one who can define what things you can enjoy and which is not.
2026  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: October 12, 2022, 10:22:22 AM
There is a high chance that Powell will be chosen over Nicholson after the eighth game. He gives more value to the Bay Area than Nicholson. It is evident in his first game. But we will see since the game against Ginebra was Nicholson's first game, it might just be jitters which is why the team did not perform well. They will face a strong team again in their next match. If Nicholson can carry the Dragons past San Miguel, he may still have a chance to stay as their import.
Too early to judge if you will ask me.

We only saw one game where and I guess it's pretty obvious that the chemistry around the team is different if their import is different. Let's say who is the better import after 3 more games. Powell is their main point guard and there aren't any guard out there who can match or at least imitate what he can do. On the other hand, Nicholson is a scorer as well but at the same time, he is also a great defender with a long wingspan.

Overall, let's watch the next 3 games of Nicholson and then after that, we will see who the import Bay Area Dragons will be using for the remainder of the season and possible in the playoffs as well.

Based on what I saw in their previous game, they need a good ball facilitator and I will vote for Powell to say over Nicholson. I mean, they have bigs already, they have a giant which was very effective on their game against Ginebra, so why are they not giving him heavy minutes?

Bad days will always happen on a team and might that time the momentum is not on their hands so its early to tell that Nicholson is not very much effective to his team since he just newly installed on the line up. Maybe on 2nd or in their third game if he still cannot provide what many people expect to him then we can say that Powell is perfect player between these selection.

Fake Solana Phantom security updates push crypto-stealing malware

This security update said to be from Phantom but no, it is from hackers. Not even a security update but instead they are NFTs that will introduce malware into your wallet to compromise and steal from it.

Quote
"Phantom requires all users to update their wallets. This must be done as soon as possible," reads the warning in the fake Phantom update NFT.

"Failing to do so, may result in loss of funds due to hackers exploiting the Solana network. Visit www.updatePhantom.com to get the latest security update."

Read in details: Fake Solana Phantom security updates push crypto-stealing malware

To risky to be seen by newbies since this kind of updates schemes used by hackers is kinda convincing since for sure when they see that they update just to think that there wallet should be updated to get more better experience for using the wallet. For seeing this always good to ask the support about some certain steps to be made so that we can verify is the said updates is truly legitimate.
2028  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: October 11, 2022, 02:38:35 PM
Maybe for now yes he has a good contribution to the team but what about for next succeeding years? For sure his game play will decline more and leadership will not totally help their team for more longer times since for sure its just a waste of their asset to spend a huge contract for a possible bench warmer. Green is 32 years old and giving max contract is not totally worth for the management
Yeah, it's almost impossible for old player to stay in basketball since every year there's a young generation who's more aggressive and fast that would outplayed old player. In the next few years he will get replaced by Jonathan Kuminga.

That's why maybe GSW management is thinking more deeply if they want to spend a lot of money just to sign him since he will might lose a lot since they have Poole which is so young and Looney which is more valuable for their money. So most provably the chance of green to get the contract he want is so slim especially right now he's facing a big controversy which most likely will affect his request.


Interesting to know if they will weight it out and if who will be the deserving for the max contract.

Like what you said, Green's chance to sign his demand contract is slimmer since they have a lot of talents who are also deserving
for such increase, money wise GSW will play their cards here, and for sure they can come up with another good deal the way
they take Wiggins and convert him to become a good two-way player.

This is tough for GSW because Green is valuable asset to them since he provide quality defense and assist to their main shooters for them to create score and also he's presence in court gives huge impact to them.

While Poole most likely to be the future of GSW since he has huge potential due to his skills show for their past games. He is projected to replace Curry once the baby face assassin retires.
2029  Economy / Economics / Re: The whole tipping culture in western countries is unfair and totally wrong! on: October 11, 2022, 11:09:16 AM
Its not mandatory but we're used to it already.
And its also because the guys in the restaurant will remember you don't give tips to them, they will spit and piss on your drink which I'm sure you won't like it.  This is why I also give tips to some waiters who will serve me on a restaurant because I've seen it first hand what they did to someone's food.

Well if they do that then don't eat at their fucking joint in the first place.

You get tips for being good to customers. If you act like an asshole to them then how do you expect to keep your job without customers?

And file a case if you found someone doing that since its really hazardous for your health if someone do that in purpose and for sure this doings will get busted since there's no wrong doings will continue.

But I don't think those restaurant staff will do it just for the tip and maybe they will do this nasty act because they don't like the behavior of their costumer.

It has risks because if someone is just trying to follow @OP's tips and doesn't have the experience and ability to analyze market conditions, he will have difficulty deciding when to buy and sell. And HODL is the easiest way he can because he doesn't have to deal with the risk of losing his money. In addition, he can do other things that have nothing to do with crypto so that the funds he has are just waiting for the time to turn around.

The article can be a lesson for those who want to learn about strategies to increase their bitcoin number. But be careful when they try it because there's no guarantee that @OP's strategy will work for him.

That also mean that even though how successful the strategy to the person who said it still the person who copy it cannot assure to replicate the result since it will all matter the level of patience and how consistent the people are to do such strategy what they call.

It's okay if you just guess and write your prediction right away but maybe your chances won't be as big if you do the analysis. You can try to do as much analysis as you can so that maybe it can give you a greater chance of winning. But if you are okay with the outcome, you can stick with your strategy of guessing how much it will cost later. And hopefully, luck can be yours.
Analysing BTC and other crypto prices is a complete waste of time if you ask me which is the primary reason why I prefer long-term HODLING over day-trading. I detest looking at charts, candles etc day and night basically.

Instead, it's better to simply pick a random price and hope that luck flies your way. Best strategy overall!

Indeed hodling is the best way since this is easiest one to take by newbies but we can't also take that daily trading is also good option for people who's patience is short and can't handle to much stress for seeing the market. Although for other its waste of time but spending time learning technical analysis and fundamentals is really worth it since you can learn something which is totally helpful on your trades.
2033  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: October 10, 2022, 10:51:46 AM
I cannot see the Warriors wanting to trade Green unless he gets pissed if they don't give him a max deal. While he is an asshole and a hothead, he also gets under players skin and throws off their game along with being a top tier defender. He's well worth keeping i'm just not sure he's worth max money.
He is not. Not anymore after that incident. He made a lot of analysts look deeper into his past performance and many NBA fans think he may not be worth the money anymore. Just one mistake made a lot of opinions about him flip.

What I didn't like after watching 20 minutes of 35 minutes of the press interview on Draymond? (Yes, I stopped midway because I didn't like what I am hearing.)
He said earlier in that interview that he won't go into details about how he came to decide on punching JP. Why? Because he doesn't want sympathy that would change the opinion of people.
Afterward, there are questions that can be answered in a short manner and yet he always makes it long with stories and repeated apologies.
For me, he is gaining sympathy by doing that and IMO, it was his plan. He may have not said the details but he did it in a way people won't realize they are already on his side because he sounded real.
He's a good talker, I give him that. Maybe he should continue his podcast career instead of NBA.
Yes, the guy is obviously worth a keep but definitely not worth a max contract. Even before this incident, I really don't think he can get a max contract. He's probably bluffing in order to get a better deal with his dying stats. He still got this season though to prove his worth. And we will see what the team chemistry looks like after this incident.

Draymond's podcast is getting more and more popular, especially when he won another title last season. He can really get a good job at commentating or even focusing on his podcast after his NBA career.

Maybe for now yes he has a good contribution to the team but what about for next succeeding years? For sure his game play will decline more and leadership will not totally help their team for more longer times since for sure its just a waste of their asset to spend a huge contract for a possible bench warmer.

2034  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Free NFTs are a waste of time on: October 08, 2022, 12:50:58 PM
Can free NFTs still make you money? I don't bother to claim free NFTs anymore because I have many that has no good use and value, also NFTs is tanking right now than shit coins, do you still claim free NFTs and are they worth anything? Maybe NFTs will make a comeback some day?
There are probably some NFTs that can make a profit in the future, but if it's a free hand, you should have a 1 in 1000 chance of getting lucky. I also think that picking up free NFTs is a waste of time, just like free airdrops back in the day. It's either the lucky ones or those who are good at it that get lucky.

Compare to those with airdrop token is somewhat different since sometimes we can really see some actual value which we can really earn from airdrops compare to free mint NFT's since from this we need to seek for buyerd before we can possibly earn on our free minted NFT's but we cannot expect to get any value because most of the free can only be sold for $1 or even no value at all.
2035  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Does Trading Volume really matter ? on: October 08, 2022, 11:31:26 AM
I've only started noticing the Trading Volume stats on my favourite projects. I am a little intrigued as to what this exactly means, does it really matter much ? Some lesser known projects like Yield Yak have barely $4,000 in Trading Volume, yet the TVL is something like $50 million, whereas a better known project like Raydium has a Trading volume of more than $6 Million, with a TVL of only a little more than triple the TVL of Yield Yak  ( $160 Million TVL )
I'm also surprised that some lesser known gaming projects like Vulcan Forged have a high trading volume , whereas others ( like Axie Infinity ) have a relatively low trading volume.
The way I interpret it right now ( correct me if I'm wrong ) is that trading volume is high when an ecosystem is very active and adoption is growing relative to other projects, so it's a good indicator to buy into that project.

Volume is so important for a token because it can also tell that many people believe on the project where as those tokens who only have less volume which we can say people dislike or doesn't like what they are seeing for that project. It also important if you trading it because you can exchange easily without a problem if the token have huge volume compare to those token doesn't have any volume where you need to wait for people to buy your sell order before your order will get filled.

great conversion with his rewards! that player alone, freebitco can really sustain their presence in this market. don't forget up until now they don't need license to attract high rollers. that's what reputation is all about. it is about also how you treat the gambling community throughout the years, bearish, more bearish or bullish years. this site have seen so much in this crypto market, and they are still going strong despite those challenging years.

License is not totally required to have especially if the casino is old and they already have reputation built. For sure they provably not gonna mess up with their successful business because they are already sustainable and people which gamble to this casino already tested for past bearish season that they are still standing strong so no question about any other things and license discussion about them is just small requirement to have.
2037  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Too risky to leave BTC right now on: October 07, 2022, 08:21:49 PM
It's way too risky to be out of bitcoin right now because people are calling for 10,000$ per Bitcoin before they will start buying,  it sounds like when people are calling for 100,000$ per BTC months ago and the opposite happened, now people are calling for 10k again, the opposite might happen again, the best way to deal with this is start buying BTC every week, maybe on Mondays? This way you will feel better.....remember, when people are calling for the exact same thing the opposite always happens.

Do not sit back and do nothing

Its just assumption and you cannot say anything accurate to what people's sentiment at that time since its different scenario where market is in bullish since many people hope for more great things to happen. Also in bearish season we cannot also say that recovery might happen because we cannot still predict the outcome and might we could see the market dump more if more worst case situation occurs especially right now we are in crisis.

Why aren't gambling websites using bug bounties to test-run their platform security? I haven't seen any gambling platform doing this, maybe that's why most gambling websites became prone to hacking? If I am wrong what gambling project do you think have the most secured system?, peace.

Maybe because some of casino are confident enough that their casino is totally safe and they have best guys working on security side or maybe even they pay already a white hat hackers to test their security since they think this is much better rather than paying those random guys which doesn't have programming background.

I may restart the campaign for Bitvest, stay tune for updates.
Hopefully this time it will happen, you've used the word
Quote
may
instead of will so there's really no guarantee that the campaign will start, the most important here is you're active here, and if the campaign will have a restart its better that you do it in a weekly payment this is recommended so you can regain your reputation, the monthly payment sometimes it took one and half month to be cleared, weekly payment will get you the best posters in the forum.
For sure they learn a lot of lesson from the mistake they made from the past but what good thing there is all of the participants got paid, so maybe they have proper ways to make things smooth especially on campaign payments. But I guess for this time around lightlord should hire those top tier managers so that he can trust those guys escrowing the funds intended for his campaign.
If ever they will run another campaign here on the forum, it's great if they'll be able to hire one of the best campaign managers out there. But even if it will be the same campaign manager as last time or any good manager out there, I think there should be any issue about that as the main issue last time was not the management rather it's the payment. Still, Escrow for the payment should be made to avoid the mistake that happened before.
The problem last time is delay of payments so I think they really need to fix this since its really much causing trouble to them since many people get curious if they starting to get a problem and maybe even think that they are shutting off. But since they are much doing good right now I guess its better to have good manager which can be trusted as an escrow also so that they can avoid the same mistake again and they can also run a campaign without encountering any problem.

Yes it can be regulated to especially if US or even the country where the project originated interfere the operation of the project and ask some requirements so that they can continue to operate. And this is good because we will know if the project can really provide what government required them to do before they can legally operate and as well we can see how serious the dev to sustain their project.
