Okay.

Children thinks that it's ok to do such because they don't recognize that they're gambling. I have my own story as well and basically that's under on the teenager and legal age days.

And I think we all have our fair share stories about gambling during the old times and those were the days we're all young and curious. No pressure and no obligation. But as we grow older, a simple lose and struggle of getting a win is tilting us easily.

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.

While for the trust rating of that person where you've dealt with. That 10 transactions can even be only him, it's likely that it's also him that used others identities to verify his account there and make it look like genuine transactions for him to leave those few good trust rating.

Like you've mentioned, always check everything if money was sent to you actually and don't just rely on text messages as source of notification but check your wallet app if it really got the money.

That's pretty normal to be tilted when we do something that we're passionate about and the result isn't in our favor. Dealing with it is not easy for many because it's an attitude that you cannot control if you're not used to it. But when it does happen to me, I deep breath and drink some water and that's it.

Before gambling, you need to set yourself that you'll not be hot headed because it won't give you good luck.

Profit for everyone, entertainment, to enjoy and have fun but there goes those that have been staying in gambling as their bread and butter.

Kids shouldn't gamble but how old were you guys during that time?

That's also what I think because these people have been dying hard to wait that price to come, they've been all talking negatively and frustrating feelings of those that can read their "TA".

Bitcoin just hit $30k again and this is a celebration for everyone that has been waiting to see its price to be back at it again at that level.

It just did got $30k this day and kinda stuck to that price. Well, that's so demanding if I say kind of stuck there if it has just been there. LOL

$29600 as of writing now.

While there were some positive actions that can be seen to bitcoin and the push that has been made just now. I still see some of those predictions from outside the forum that they're still waiting for $10k.

Like, I know that it's possible and bitcoin is too volatile that it can go as high as it can and go down more than what we're expecting. But realizing the situation now and cycles, it's very unlikely that we may see that falling on that price ever again.

It is and I think there's something to do with the crown prince there as you guys have known, whenever there's a battle pass he's buying a lot of it as if the amount and level isn't costing him much. Well, he's a prince and that's why I guess he's the most influential person to bring a Dota 2 tournament in their country.

IIRC, there was this season that they weren't able to get on TI correct me if I'm wrong. But sure is their playstyle is different from most teams but in the pro scene, they're not really unique at all.

Execration is part of SEA not China and currently they're playing in the DreamLeague and after that, they'll fly to Berlin major.

Borrowing is addicting if the purpose isn't being put into a good use. But there is what call, good debt and this is applicable for businessmen. It's not like you'll borrow to buy bitcoin, that's totally a wrong thing.

You as a borrower have already a good source of income and that will be your main requirement in borrowing, to get a better cash flow and to expand your business which seems to be truly profitable. The banks are going to allow you to borrow but with a limit and this is what business people are doing.

But if you're someone who's borrowing money to buy needs like gadgets, expensive travels and vacation and yet you're not earning that much. That's just irresponsible way of borrowing, yeah, YOLO and you deserve better but that's not the type of description of borrowing to me.

Day 1 is all set and done for the DreamLeague Season 19. Groups A and B matches still has 3 days left remaining until we go to the next level which is the Group Stage 2.

And after the group stage 2, we head to the playoffs and finals. Group Stage 2 will take 7 days in the process so this is gonna be a long group stage but with this, we'll see how teams have prepared well for this because it's a mental draining process for all of them.

And whoever wins this DL S19 goes to Riyadh Masters which has a $15M prize pool.

If after your introduce it has come to investing and these people started buying bitcoin and then saw that the value is going down, then yes.

They might blame you for their losses and it had happened to many and that's why many from the community don't want to introduce it anymore and just good advocating it online.

Although it differs the situation and maybe people in your neighborhood are kind and excited to know more about it, you can fairly say that it's part of the journey and show them proof that this how bitcoin moves at most times.

While for sure there will be people that will feel the regret on you and even you, it cannot be hidden. What matters most is you are able to spend and sold that with a very important thing that you have to address.

You do not need to feel bad about selling it even if we all know that bull run is about to come soon. What you need to think of is profit is profit.

It has helped you in emergency need and you will be forever grateful with that and it will become a memory soon that no regrets and you just did the right thing.

Bad news as it may seem, but we people have the best skills and abilities and one of it is to adapt.

And with such rapid changes and innovation with certain technologies like AI. Things will be eventually normal when we've already adapted the phases and changes.

We may lack of skills for now on how to maneuver and maximize the usage of it but eventually we'll get there for sure like being in the AI, machine learning, automation, etc. are going to be simple jobs in the future as if data entry in the past.

All of you've said are correct but what if it goes like this?

Every bitcoin purchased is a vote of confidence to this technology and its future.

And that is because not everyone will just waste money these days to buy something that they have no confidence at all and as we know, there have been more people came to the market during the start of the pandemic and even now that there have been big investors in the form of financial institutions.

Because these financial institutions are for centralization and that's the system they're following on, does that mean that they're voting for decentralization? I guess not but they're buying it mainly for profits and that's a confident move for them like Microstrategy because they're very optimistic and trusting to its future.

It was a horrifying experience for him that he's still bringing it until now. Yeah, he may be drunk but I think the thought of his that he's thinking that he failed somnus and his whole team is still ticking on his mind.

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.

Buy bitcoin and that's what it needs to be to be called a bitcoin investor. You won't be a bitcoin investor if you hold Ethereum or any other altcoins.

There's no need to complicate things to understand and there's no need for any technical aspect needed to be understood by having means of that.

And as you invest in bitcoin, you understand that this isn't just eenie meenie miney mo. But there's a responsibility on your own that you have to take care of your bitcoins.

By means of that, not just in risk aspect but also responsibility on how you're keeping it and as you know, you should be the one holding your private keys and not the exchanges.

I think the shortcut on this one for those non-technical people is the first one and that's to not download any extension that they're unfamiliar with. And even they're familiar with what they're downloading, they need to look at it first and see if it's from the official service and company that they want to download.

I guess the most common thing on this imitation will be from Metamask users. It's a very popular browser extension and wallet and it has a lot of users and keeps on adding more.

I agree, but no matter how many times we remind everyone. It is a personal choice that they think is less of the hassle because they can trade on an instant without doing deposit/withdrawal waiting time.

Great find.

We all know how hot the mixers are today and with a bunch of it having their signature campaigns in the forum, that adds more popularity in them and one of them is sinbad.

This is likely a scam website that tries to ride on sinbad's popularity. Anyone who's going to use and deposit on them is likely to receive nothing and that deposit is gone forever.

It can also happen into other mixers that these scammers will have their eyes on.

Yeah, it's better to have some org on their back so that they won't be problematic about expenses and they can just focus on games. That's the reason why many teams and players want to be in an org because they carry most expenses and at the same time, they all have got the resources.

Anyway, have you seen the video that Ame cried in Somnus and telling sorry that he failed him to win TI8 because his morph was "noob" as he said? Ame still thinking of that and haven't moved on yet all of these times, now I understand why Ame is like after all of those years.

It had given him sort of traumatic experience. How I wish that they've won a TI.

These regulators really are a big problem in terms of innovation. But we can't blame them because of the fiasco that has FTX has brought and also the other projects like Terra, etc.

Anyway, it's nice that you've understand my point and I wish no harm to your project and even wishing you a success by working hard on it.

You know where you're going and coming from and this is an important point when you're working on a project and is very open to the ideas of the others that's being shared to you.

I have already thought of this idea if AirBNB is going to launch some good news about accepting payments in bitcoin. IMHO, with good projects that has the potential like yours, it doesn't need to have and make any new tokesn for you to go along with these innovations, acceptance and adoptions for bitcoin or entirely crypto payments.

What's a better approach to this idea is just to contact airbnb and be the source of this idea about accepting payments in crypto and have it worked by a third-party service upon booking to their website or offer a service that you'll be the source for that conversion and just hand over them the cash minus the deduction of your service commission fee.

If I'm one of airbnb executives and understands the concept of bitcoin first and then other potential cryptocurrencies that it's quickly convertible into cash which is what they prefer, then I might take a shot but not with any random and new tokens.

Welcome to the forum and also congratulations with your initiative for investing in bitcoin. While I give you applause for doing that, but it made me sort of worried about what you've said guaranteeing your parents telling them by December you'll have more, and they gave you additional money to invest again.

I think this is a wrong approach to say that you're guaranteeing and giving timeframes on when you shall profit because nobody knows how and when the bull run will start. The market is volatile and no one can predict accurately if by that time it's going to be a better month for bitcoin. Although in the past, we've seen runs that have been so good at the end of the year.

But as said, we don't know if by that time it what will be as you've expected. Explain to your parents also the risk of investing in bitcoin and what it is with volatility and you should be patient while waiting for that time to come.

Nevertheless, if you're short term and you're foreseeing out of the market by December I think that will change.
