The game between Tundra and Shopify Rebellion is now tied as Tundra was able to win Map 2. I was surprised at how fast the Alche can farm in this patch and he did not even lane. Went straight to the jungle. Let's see on the third map how Shopify will respond to the adjustment of Tundra against them. Exciting third map up ahead.
That was an intense fight. Alchemist sure has got some buff on this update but then Tundra took it down. While for game 3, I think this is where all the highlights is gonna come from.

This hero, Muerta has been added to the captains mode and these teams have just been waiting for it to be used. It wasn't only Shopify Rebellion that used it but also Team Liquid.

Tundra is out and will go home with a 4th place and $85,000. While Team Liquid is waiting for the grand finals, the battle of 3rd and 2nd will be with GG and SR. Who you think will move to the grand finals guys?

I don't download any app on my main phone and with such in existence, those people that have their crypto apps and wallets in the same phone and they're also downloading almost anything. Those are the people that needs to be careful.

Better not download anything on the playstore without DYOR.

It's easy to download but knowing what you're downloading takes now responsibility or else some unexpected hack may happen.

That icon of a blurred woman, that's for sure where many will fall.
2063  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Did bitcoin has trading signals and indictors like forex? on: April 22, 2023, 09:26:23 AM
Can we use the same analysis on forex to appropriate our trading on bitcoin like the way gold and US dollar trades same signals.
Did bitcoin has trading signals and indictors different from forex or they're all same signals and indictors but different price movement from bitcoin?
Because forex do not actually include bitcoin signals when trading bitcoin on forex apps. Instance! When you wants to trade forex you can get signals and indictors apps from google play store but no such for bitcoin?
It's best to hear it from someone who's really into both markets, bitcoin and forex. Because I'm not into forex and I can't tell and depict if it's possible, so instead of giving some guess and thoughts, it's best to this from someone who's experienced in both markets.

I'd say that in stocks and bitcoin, you can have the same technique but talking about signals and indicators. There's just a bunch to talk with if it you're relating to both of it. If no one will show up then it's your call to test the waters if it works or not.
2064  Economy / Economics / Re: Pay your debt with monkeys! on: April 22, 2023, 06:41:00 AM
This is literally monkey business but it's understandable that Sri Lanka is in debt and anything that has value for them to at least pay the debt they've got should be made.

Their debt with China is that much and it's a debt trap that they can't get out unless they clear it first and whoever has come up with that idea, there are pros and cons with this action.

If those monkeys are endemic to them, tourism is the first thing that I can think of but having such huge debt and pressure and as well as compounding interest, they have to do it and send it to them.

Anything that they can charge with value and not money just to get off with their debt, I guess we'll see that mostly with those countries who's indebted to another country.
2065  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why does It takes time for market to be bull on: April 21, 2023, 11:52:36 PM
I now come to understand the tips that I've heard from my parents and grandparents that patience is a virtue. And it's applicable in here while we're waiting for the bull run.

It wouldn't just be always in the bull run and everyone is going to make money from that season. Like many has said about the biggest factor to be the demand.

Whenever we're in a bear market, everyone is fearing to buy so the demand is lesser and from there it's all starting out until we start to see the signs and thanks to halving that's making everyone back but I doubt that many of us here are going out because we're all aware of the cycles.

Scam is everywhere, I fear for my money. They say the person who ask for help does not make a mistake. I want to own my first Bitcoin next week when my monthly salary is paid but afraid of jumping on any wallet to avoid losing my money.

The popular choices I know and hear from people are Binance, Blockchain and Freewallet. Which one should I choose? I am just starting my bitcoin owning journey and it will be kind of the senior guys to show the way.

You can suggest better ones if there are any.
Good thing that you've asked here first, all of the three that you've mentioned aren't viable and great choices especially if you're going to keep 1 bitcoin in them.

Aside from these recommended desktop wallets.

- Electrum
- Wasabi
- Bitcoin Core
- Samourai

Since you will able to buy one bitcoin next week then I'm sure that a few couple of bucks spent for a hardware wallet won't hit your budget a lot. It's a precautionary measure and will give you better security for your asset.

These are the options you've got for hardware wallets --> https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet?step=5&platform=hardware

I'd personally recommended Ledger wallets but I only own one of its version, the old one.

Please don't use web wallets that you've mentioned as your choice, you'll regret if you proceed with those choices.

It's true that Old G is overrate but they didn't make it. Team Secret is in and just waiting for the formality of their retrieval back to division 1.

And going with the playoffs of the DreamLeague, 4 team left and I'm excited to see who's going to go to the Riyadh Masters where prize is higher than the typical majors that we're having.

Pick your bets now on the upperbracket, I guess many will be choosing Team Liquid instead of GG. And on the lower bracket, many will choose the former TI - Tundra than Shopify Rebellion.

This sense of overrated on Old G is due to their previous performance on past Division 2  DPC tournament. They dominated all the Division 2 tournament before Team Secret and other new Div 2 team existed on the list. I think those other teams that already removed on Division 2 is already outclass by Old G while the new team including Team Secret outclass Old G.
I don't want to be harsh on them but that's the reality that they're overrated. They're consisted of good and experienced players but that ain't enough. Even if they go to division 1, I think that they will have hard time competing there.

Pick your bets now on the upperbracket, I guess many will be choosing Team Liquid instead of GG. And on the lower bracket, many will choose the former TI - Tundra than Shopify Rebellion.

Team Liquid on Upper Bracket and SR on lower bracket but still Team Liquid and GG in the finals. Liquid and GG are dominating the Dota2 scene.
GG is like the new Tundra Esports. Tundra is still a strong team and that's why they're still in the playoffs. The touch of this team is still there but Team Liquid is certainly stronger now with nisha.
2068  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What's a crypto/bitcoin scam that most people and newbies simply don't notice? on: April 21, 2023, 06:59:06 PM
Mostly with those projects that are being shilled and they don't notice that those projects were made just to scam people.

Those random and unfamiliar projects that are unknowingly being suggested to the newbies and because they're new, they're the ones who are prone to this type of scam.

Someone will play being an expert and telling details of it and yet, the entire project isn't really good at all and just waiting for someone to fall for their scam.

This mostly could happen in Telegram groups and sometimes can be seen in some post made by newbie accounts in the forum.
2069  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do you want bitcoin to stay? on: April 20, 2023, 11:55:38 PM
I think that most of us are just relying to what's with the current lead of the technology and monetary system. After a century, maybe there's another better system or upgrade monetary system that has been derived from bitcoin so it's like bitcoin 2.0 or more another version.

But as of now, this is the best that we have and I want it to stay because it has changed lives and it has also awaken a lot of minds from the current monetary system of the world, of different governments, of most countries.

It has also disrupted the current payment methods and investments and had it all in one integrated. There's so much more I guess to say.

Team Secret and Old G are now on their game 1 but this game 1 is in favor of Team Secret. Yes, they're now currently playing as I type this and the K/D score is 29-9 in favor of Team Secret.

Well I guess everyone just fixtated on watching Dreamleague right now instead of divison 2 WEU. Old G is pretty overrated and they are not even as good as some division 2 teams right now

2071  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What are Address Poisoning Scams? on: April 20, 2023, 08:36:20 PM
There were a lot of these cases on the TRON network, sending a small amount of Tron to wallets, scammers creating a similar address copying some of the first or last characters of the address hoping that the user will get lazy since we sometimes use to just checking the first few or last characters on our address.
I'm just curious on this one.

Is it possible on the tron network that they can generate these type of wallet addresses so, this is like vanity addresses? where the first and last addresses can be modified depending on what are the characters they want to generate?

Honestly, I'm guilty on this one that I just look at the first and last characters of my addresses but this is for bitcoin and not with tron or any other altcoin.

Veterans team are now against each other on the division 2 (Dota 2).

Team Secret and Old G are now on their game 1 but this game 1 is in favor of Team Secret. Yes, they're now currently playing as I type this and the K/D score is 29-9 in favor of Team Secret.

It seems looking easy for Puppey's squad beating Topson and Ceb's squad. Alwayswannafly is a stand in on the Old G while Ceb is playing for the position 3 since there's no resolution.

I'm just waiting for some clutch if Old G can still turn the game since it's too much for them to recover but then, it's Topson's morph and can still have some unexpected game plays, only one mistake from Team Secret and this can be for Old G.

A screenshot can also be altered. So it should be both receiving a screenshot and as well as checking the app itself if you've the funds on your end.

One guy over here got scammed on Binance not too long ago after falling for the same modus operandi. Aside from not checking, he didn't have the app which would notify him of any transactions.
That's why those that are used to trade in P2P markets, whether it's from Binance, Bybit or any other exchanges that's quite popular. Always protect yourself and be active of checking notifs.

It's going to be your partner with these trades because if you just rely to the info fed by the person whom you're transacting with, it's possible that you'll get tricked by them if they do have the intention to scam.

Just like going in the banks, we tend to check notifications and slips to make sure that our money has been deposited or transferred. It should be a practice that everyone must remember to do.

Let's just stop the thought that someone is able to lift the team entirely. Yes, individually, there are talented players that seems to shine out every match but it's not just all about them. Let us not ignore the other players that becomes key based on their plays and momentum. We don't see a pos 5 lifting a team even if he plays the best and it's visible in the eyes of many players.

But sometimes there are players that just become a key component for a team to start winning. Just like what happened to Team Secret last year. They are bad the whole season but they added Reso and suddenly they are playing in the Grand Finals in TI.
I agree with that. Some key players added and the impact is visible with the performance of the whole team.

I'd still say that it's the whole team's effort and performance that makes the game won. I think this is just on my perspective since we've got all have.

It's a team game and that just makes me more impressed to those teams that are balance and shows how good they are in team playing and one of it is being comfortable to each other and as well as the communication.
2077  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🕹️ Esports 🎮 Prediction & Discussion Thread on: April 14, 2023, 11:04:54 PM
The players of Nigma are now weak. I literally mean it because there are now a lot of young players who are stronger and plays better than them, I know that they won a TI before but this time is different. They are always behind in their respective lanes and Sumail and Miracle cannot lift them anymore because the support players are not that good unlike before. I also saw Miracle struggling in laning stage and that is why they have been eliminated in the DreamLeague. Hoping that Miracle and Sumail should not yet stop playing dota and the Nigma should change the roster by kicking GH and Kuroky. I know that they are the old players but their skill is not that good. For me they are the weakest link in the team Nigma. Look at the top teams nowadays, when they saw a weak link or a player that always been struggling in all stages, they will kick it and replace it with a better player. Still props to them because they won a TI but it is the time for the supports of Nigma to change. If they do it, for sure we will see a drastic performance when they play again.
Let's just stop the thought that someone is able to lift the team entirely. Yes, individually, there are talented players that seems to shine out every match but it's not just all about them.

But we only see the carries, mid lanes and off laners that are being recognized of lifting teams. Well, they're noticeable but Dota 2 these days are more of a team game. Nigma and its rosters are quite old already but I know that they're trying hard and I'm with you having that opinion that there are other younger talents that they can scout and have them replaced.

They're no longer in their prime and it's sad to accept that when they've got ego issues, likely. However, you can't stop someone's passion over the game just like our very old good guy, Dendi.

What is actually the goal of bitcoin? Is it to be held by a few people?
It's to be an alternative payment system and be the actual currency at the same time per se. But time has changed that its value changed overtime and people want to hold it instead because of having a limited supply.

What if Satoshi and the early adopters bought and held all the bitcoin when it was worth nothing.
Satoshi doesn't need to buy it, during the early days, bitcoin can easily be mine by everyone and it's not believing that it will reach its success that it has got right now. So, we're all going to end up with questions about what ifs.

Would we have own even a sat of bitcoin today?
Maybe we'll still have it because of the supplies that can still be mined as of this moment.

Why do we praise hodlers more than spenders?
You got me on this and you've got the right question. The main purpose of bitcoin going to the first question is to be an actual payment and currency which shouldn't be held. Thus, the spenders and users of it should be the one to be praised for adding that activity in the network but I do believe that every holder is also a spender but, not all that they hold is ready to be spent.

Yeah, it won't happen anymore. Somnus has retired, so just as ame and then the rest of the original PSG.LGD roster during TI8, together with fy.

Well who knows if these players will still play for some fun and accidentally manages to get a spot on the division 1 and then road to TI. Just a fun thought but yes, it's more unlikely to happen.

Just like what the OLD G is doing? Though OLD G is still young and still very competitive. Maybe we will only see them play together in exhibition matches but I do not think we will see them in any DPC tournaments. They retired for a reason and they already have a good run.

AME's loss in TI8 was a good run and they lost to a team who will eventually win TI back-to-back so he should not be ashamed of it or regret what happened. They were outplayed by the humble god and Topson but they gave the fans very memorable TI matches. I still get hyped whenever I replay the games in their final match against OG.
OLD G is currently playing on the division 2 and is on their way to the division if ever they'll be ending up 1st or 2nd on this WEU DPC tour. There are still a lot of matches for them awaiting to be played and I'm optimistic that they'll take one slot to division 1.

As for me Ame, it's like an honor that he was beaten by back to back TI champs. But being 2nd and not able to get the actual TI title is still frustrating when he's almost there but fell and short of glory.

I also still watches some highlights of those replays but Ame just have it on his heavy heart and mind and didn't know that he's bringing it up until he has said it for a long time.
2080  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Bybit P2P Exchange Scam Modus on: April 12, 2023, 05:51:13 PM
I think that SMS poofing can be done by anyone or any scammer can easily pay for the software that can send text messages and they can name it with anything that they can just as the Gcash.
It can be, using some sms services at least services/shop not based in philippines, because most sms services based on ph are stricted on sms with sender id at least on my experience working on some sms api.

I have experienced this kind of scam attempt too, it was a p2p transaction coz im selling a digital card, and the buyer is using Gcash for payment. I received an sms of payment received from Gcash but it was on different sms thread/page not the usual thread/page when i'm receiving a Gcash related sms. And like what i usually do, checking the actual wallet if it reflect on my balance. And yeah, i never received it so and i told her that it wont work on me, just like that she blocks me eventually :ampt.
These scammers are doing it like a "nice try" attempt and if they succeed, they'll be celebrating what they've done to the other. And these scammers should be out of exchanges and reported if it's possible from these P2P markets of these exchanges.

this is why when it comes to Gcash I always ask for a screenshot of the money being sent instead of waiting to receive a message saying that I have received the money. there are too many scammers on Gcash and a lot of people get scammed on it because they rely too much on the authenticity of the message that was sent to them.
A screenshot can also be altered. So it should be both receiving a screenshot and as well as checking the app itself if you've the funds on your end.
