The purpose of crypto will be defeated if KYC will come to play, as the government is the main regulator that we have to comply with, we have no choice otherwise we will be penalized. I don't know, before I was so optimistic that decentralization is the key to transparency but what's happening now makes me believe that we can't beat the decentralization.

I would say you go with the new coin that is currently hype as they are probably gonna pump in the future, we can't deny that NFT is currently the hottest now but we will know if they'll survive once the hype is over. When investing, there should be for short term and long term, and they are manage separately.

My predictions for the semi final games are like this:

USA - Australia
France - Slovenia

I don't think that Australia would be able to resist to USA. Durant would probably be the player of the game again and USA would win it easily.

When it comes to the other game, it's going to be really tough as both of these teams are very powerful. But I see Slovenia as one step ahead. I think that we will watch a very close game but Slovenia will be the winner at the end. I expect another great performance from Doncic and Dragic.
Yes i think so the usa and slovenia are both the favorable to pass but still australia team might cause them problems they are good and passed easily against argentina as for slovenia and france it will be tough for both but i will go with slovenia and i have a feeling that they can win even the gold medal.

Let's see, but the biggest opponent of the USA now is France as they lose in the opening, so if USA will win and France will win, this will be a good battle for the Gold and personally, I would put my bet on France as I'm looking for an upset.

Nesthy Petecio lost despite being the favorites to won the fight, I hope you guys did not put your bet on her so you'll not experience the loss. Anyway, it's still a good achievement for her, she is the first woman boxer who won a Silver or a medal in the olympcis. Congratulations to him, maybe better luck next time.

You forgot one thing, Carmelo wanted to have a ring too and Lebron will be giving that option if Lakers are going to absorb him. So it's a win-win situation for Carmelo, not sure if he is willing to have a pay cut just to join Lebron. But it will be the best thing to do for him, he is lucky that Portland gave him the time and money to play last season because as we all know, he no longer as good as he used to be.

Portland gave him the chance to prove that he still have something, we witness how those great games that he contributed to the team, making him a good options when Lilard and CJ is not performing well.

I guess if friendship will drive him to Lakers, LeBron can easily give him the space that he wanted to acquire.

No longer on his prime but pairing with good and talented players, this man  still have that quality minutes to give, hope for the best before he retire his jersey.

As we can see in his stat - https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/a/anthoca01.html.. he can still contribute with double-digit and I think he will be useful with the Lakers. When Lebron is out or would rest, the Lakers could put Melo to substitute his position and he will definitely deliver. You can see on Melo's body that he really work hard to stay fit so he can contribute to the team, and being a superstar during his prime, he can contribute big to the confidence of the entire team.

Yes boss you're right. I am always do it, i can't Control my emotions,  i research more times before buy any coin or token and choice good one, but when market dumping then i can't control myself and sold it. one or two days after it's increasing 2x. But i lost money.

Now I realised it - If i don't bear "lose" then crypto is not for me.

If you don't learn, then crypto is not for You. it's actually normal to make mistakes especially if we are just starting, but if we keep making those mistakes over and over again, then it's just like wasting money, and we should stop immediately.
2107  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Getting paid in Bitcoin vs getting paid in Fiat on: July 30, 2021, 07:35:26 PM
I don't know whether there is a need for people to get paid in Bitcoin. Because we can already buy Bitcoin with fiat money that we earn at work. But when fiat money is fully gone, then we can see more people getting paid in Bitcoin and the digital currencies.
I think this is more of an individual's choice whether he chooses to get paid in bitcoin or fiat. And eventually there's no wrong being get paid in bitcoin as long as he knows how volatile the price that it can get into lower value any time.

For me, since fiat still dominates the financial system, it would be better to choose being get paid in bitcoin. With all the money i have, i know i will be able to accumulate bitcoin if ever i decided to buy some of them as part of my investments.
2108  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will long-term investments in the crypto space provide any guarantee? on: July 30, 2021, 07:13:05 PM
if you have once been an altcoin bounty hunter, you can vuarantee for yourself that you can profit when you sell the coins when it got listed. some are holding on to the altcoins and got disappointed. not all of course.

there are long term projects you however need extra ordinary patience and endure the loss of chance. you see the coin rise above a hundred $100 and after the bullrun you see it less than $20. you wait again. whereas if you sold, you wont be regretting.  Grin
Right, actually there are no guaranteed profit in anywhere in the crypto market is specially high risk i think. Profit from bounties it’s now quite difficult because tons of projects goes SCAMMED. I didn’t get payment for a several projects where i was signature participant. Specifically which project will return good profit within one year that's no one can guarantee in altcoins investment. 
Once we enter into investments, either in crypto space or in the real world, none of them can give us a guarantee. Even if we tend to hold our coins in long term, it will still have no guarantees that we will make profits at the end of the day. So be ready to make profits or end up with losses in the long run. But somehow we can minimize losses if we have those skills and strategies needed to have in such investments.
2109  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casimero vs Rigondeaux this August 14, 2021 on: July 30, 2021, 12:11:53 PM
Its impossible for a boxer not to consider on making money and some would really be focusing on building some hype and some would just have those words casually since they do know that they can still purse out without the need of those actings and trashtalking towards the opponent.

But some boxers are no choice sometimes so they will still accept small paychecks just to have a fight and build their names.

Casimero is a champion and I think he's already earning well every fight. He just wants more than his usual which might not easy to be granted since even for a champion, a name must be popular to make a market hype. A good PPV history is also a must so boxers are doing something interesting to sell the fight and that involves trashtalking the opponent.
Agree to that, doing trash talks creates attentions and that's how PPV wanted to cover,

if interest comes up from the viewers it will generate more money for both the providers and the boxers, knowing that they've got decent
shared profits every fight that promoters covered the fight. You need to build your name and create good attentions that not exempt even champions to do that to collect bigger paychecks.


That's what Casimero has been doing, but let's see if this time he will get a good paycheck, they have a PPV so we will know if how much they had sold during the fight. Can't wait for this big event, two Filipinos are fighting next month and I really hope for their success. Manny is underdog, and most likely Casimero will be an underdog too, if the odds are available soon for this fight, I'll likely put a parlay on it.
2110  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: July 30, 2021, 11:55:13 AM
Today's first game is over.

Magnolia with yet another win and stay unbeaten in the conference, beat the Terrafirma DYIP with a score of 105-83, it was a clear mismatch and you can really tell how good Magnolia's chemistry is as we have a lot of players who scored double digit in this game.

4-0 now, they take the slot spot at the number 1.



Nice win but it's already expected so I'm not surprised with the result. I'm watching the 2nd game now between the TNT and ROS, so far it's a close game so hopefully, we will see a very entertaining game, Mikey William has his debut in this game, let's see if he can contribute as expected.

It did not end as a close game, TNT with another win and ROS are in 2 losing streaks already.

I try to chase the ROS by betting on a per quarter basis, I did not win the 3rd quarter but almost got it in the 4th quarter.
I just got a little greedy and bet on the ROS -2.5 in the 4th quarter, that last shot was missed, I could have won that bet.

Yeah, it wasn't what I expected.

Any moving on to the last game, Ginebra vs North Port, another good start by the North Port, 1st half is over and they are leading by 9 points.
Live betting odds are, Ginebra 2.1 and North Port 1.65, I guess it's nice to catch this Ginebra odds as they will certainly come back in the 2nd half.
If you bet on Ginebra, you will be celebrating by now, C. Stand hit the game-winner, which was huge as Ginebra was struggling a bit. I thought it will go to OT, but C. Stand's offensive rebound really was at the right time and at the right place.  Congratulations to the Ginebra, they are back! That never say die attitude though.
2111  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence Jr - August 21 on: July 30, 2021, 07:34:47 AM
I reckon you underestimate popularity in elections because in reality elections are only a popularity contest. Trump won versus Hillary on 2016 because of his popularity among the lower class in America. I speculate that it might be similar in Pacman’s country. This win versus Spence will create a clamor for him to run as president.

Also, if the news media begins creating storylines that the present administration of a country is corrupt, unjust and oppressive, this is the first signs that there are political backers begining their move. Pacman will be with that move. In any case, I predict that he will declare he is running for president if he wins.

Pacquiao's trust rating as of this late has declined due to his attack on the sitting President which enjoyed a very high trust rating even if this is his last year in the position. Before Manny flew for the US, he accused some government agencies of corruption which he could not prove, and instead of doing his job as a senator, where he is in the US training for his fight while the people he ought to serve is in danger of this delta variant of covid.

He might not admit but he is distracted by the issues on his home country. Believe it or not, more people are now praying that Pacquiao will lose this one because they feel that Manny is selfish and only after his own interest.

I am not quite certain on the state of politics in the Philippines, however, I am very certain that governments of 3rd world countries are very widespread in corruption from the bottom to the top. It might not be provable but this does not suggest that it is not there.


You are wrong with that, the Philippines is not anymore a 3rd world country, it already belongs to a developing countries.

https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/third-world-countries
Quote
The Philippines is historically a Third World country and currently a developing country. The GDP per capita is low, and the infant mortality rate is high. Many of its citizens lack access to health care and higher education as well.

In any case, if Pacman’s trust rating is declining then this victory versus Spence on August 21 is very much needed for him. The purse might also be needed to fund his campaign hehehehe.

It's declining because of his political stance, the outcome of the fight has no relation with his journey in Politics.

Me too, I will not vote for as politician but I will support him as a Pro Boxer because he is the pride of our country. I'm replying on the quote statement above that many Filipino will pray for him that he will lose on the match. This is such disgusting considering MP achievement and works for the Philippines.

Try to look at the social media post where the training of Manny is shown and you will see a lot of comments where they said they are praying for Manny to lose lol but I think these people are die-hard supporters of the President.

Personally, even before his attack on the President, I have already doubted that he could pull off this tough fight. Spence is bigger and in his prime, while he is old and in the twilight of his career. Sure that Manny would get a lot of money out of this fight but I just saw the referee raising the hands of Errol after the fight  Grin.

We have different opinions mate, I can see that Spence will struggle in this fight because he can't hit a fast Manny Pacquiao, however, I'm a bit concern that Manny will lose as Spence is taking this seriously, he is not saying any trash talk to Manny, and he even admits that Manny doesn't look 42 so he will train hard to beat the legend, two humble fighters, I like to see them fighting toe to toe in the ring.
2114  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: July 30, 2021, 01:18:14 AM
We have games tomorrow, and here are the betting odds.

Dyip vs Magnolia (-11.5)
TNT vs ROS (+3.5)
Ginebra vs NP (+6.5)

I think I'll bet on the NP to win the game or win the spread.  I witness a chemistry problem on the last game of Ginebra, and Greg will face his old team, probably we will see the best Greg as he will prove to his old team that they make a wrong decision trading him

Last time he scored 23 points and grabbed 17 points against the Beermen so if he could more or less match that output in this game against his former team which I think he would, probably coach Tim will regret trading him hehe.
We might see the same production or not, coach Tim knows Greg a lot, so he probably know how to stop or limit him.

My bets for today:

NorthPort -6.5 @1.95, with Ginebra having chemistry issues, I will bet against them until they find their winning ways.
TNT -4.5 @1.95, ROS playing horrible in their last game and Mikey Williams having his debut so I think Katropa will be winning this one.

I'm staying away from the first game, the spread is too high, this is a sure Magnolia win but with how many points, that's the problem.

I think NP is the underdog here, so instead of betting on -6.5, just take the ML and go for a bigger return, it's current +200 for ML bet now.
TNT also seem to be a good bet, they'll play one of their best player and they have a long rest so expect that they will play with a high energy.
2115  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If not invested then do it now... on: July 29, 2021, 09:44:34 PM
They always missed bitcoin moment. and when they see bitcoin again they think it's too late but it turns out there is another all time high. And it looks like this will happen again in the future. Becoming a believer in bitcoin is not an easy thing for people who don't really understand bitcoin because there will definitely be a lot of drama in bitcoin. but so far the one who always gains is the holder.

If people want to invest in bitcoin, they will surely make a way on how to make it possible. However, if they don't want to invest in it, there are a lot of reasons that they will say they can't. Maybe it's just their own choice or they probably find it hard to start a capital.

This is the reason why most of us here tend to miss the opportunities what bitcoin has to offer. No matter how hard we try convincing other people to trust and invest in bitcoin, it won't really happen as long as they don't get the true essence of bitcoin. So these people will just keep regretting because they don't make actions on it.
2116  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Most profitable cryptocurrency for 2021? on: July 29, 2021, 09:20:54 PM

I'm on the hunt for the most profitable cryptocurrency for 2021. Do you happen to know which one it is? Any strategies, tips or tricks to make money with your crypto of choice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Smiley

People have their own strategies in seeking profit. Some do staking, because it can increase the number of coins while holding it. But I took advantage of the staking situation to sell at a high price, because usually after staking is opened, the price of the coin will increase. So in conclusion, which coin is the best to invest in in 2021? My answer, the best investment for 2021 is a coin that is often opened for staking.
Staking makes more profits than what it seems so its definitely a good strategy to increase profits. And here's NFT game that makes also lot of people to be involved and earning huge profits from the time that it got started.

With also these strategies that come out, it will be more ideal if they can pair with those coins that never lose its value to the people. Of course fluctuations will still happen but with these trusted coins, particularly bitcoin and ethereum, we will always be in the right track.
2117  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin doesn't care about Tesla and Amazon on: July 29, 2021, 08:54:27 PM
Only weak hands, newbies and Elon musk fans was caused the price dump in the past, they only follow what the self pro claimed and their role model doing because they trust them.
But that doesn't change the fact that elon and his minions also the reason why bitcoin pumps after tweeting related to bitcoin, changing bio with a bitcoin hashtag, investing and tesla's accepting bitcoin payment, etc. And after a while it dumps, mainly because of him and tesla's revoking the acceptance of bitcoin payment as well.
Of course, bitcoin are still affected with this current events but the effect is just temporary. Afterwards, bitcoin rises up again with new positive updates passing through its resistance level.

Tesla and Amazon are both big companies that made bitcoin price to decline and it's undeniable. But bitcoin does not stop there. If it will be easily affected with negative news, then same thing happens whenever positive news will come too. Bitcoin will hype again and may reach another peak again in time.
2118  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bye Bye Bitcoin on: July 29, 2021, 08:37:59 PM
It's unbelievable that some people still carry on with this backward thinking. when most people or even if it's a person is willing to pay for something, then it's because that person saw value in something they want to pay, and no one can say that something is worthless because something has value to someone who is willing to pay. we have examples of shitcoins, they have value, even if I or someone else says they are shitcoins, but there are people who are willing to pay for shitcoin so shitcoin has value. I don't know why there are still people who are arguing about this type of subject just when this market is already at a very high level of adoption
No matter how hard they try proving bitcoin as a worthless coin, people won't totally agree on it. Even how many times bitcoin will be bannned, it will only become more famous and more people will be curious on how bitcoin works.

I think this is not new to us as this issue on banning bitcoin and proving how worthless it is comes back in the market every now and then. But bitcoin has already made remarks on the people's lives and has given the people huge profits and earnings more than what fiat can offer to them.
2119  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Next better altcoin? on: July 29, 2021, 09:33:24 AM
its good project for long term , current price was around 0,045$ and market capitalization still very small. with developtment and team seriousness build best exchanges, stobox could be best project ever. Maybe this year still hard moment to growth due market drop, but in future we will see its price will soar alot.
In general the stobox is a successful project but in today's market conditions all Altcoins need more time to develop because price adjustments must always occur on every supply and demand, so it looks very difficult.
I think the better altcoins is those coin with a reliable platform that people can use for their daily needs or have a true to life usage as this kind of platform will fit in the  market and continually moving.
Invest in altcoins that has high utility case and that will meet the demand of the people and not just coins that are too good to be true, yet they ended up into worthless coins.

New coins have definitely high risks compared to those old coins but if you will make deep researches, there are also chances that these new coins in the market are more profitable because of their high potentials to even excel the performance of the old coins.

Well 10 years ago, I was like meh when Bitcoin was mentioned. From my researches back then, it led me to a bad misconception on how Bitcoin was used. I thought it was primarily used by criminals since it is sort of "untraceable" and pseudonymous that one can't be caught even if they transact.
Well, first impression don't lasts. Even myself, i almost believed that bitcoin is just a scheme because its what most others also believed in. But i was wrong. DYOR. It will answer all our doubts.
 
Bitcoin might be the most potential and the most expensive coin for now but i'm also open if new coins will come in the market and have the potentials to replace bitcoin's position. Crypto market creates new opportunities so we should learn how to grasp every opportunity that comes even if it means new bitcoin in the market.
