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.

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.

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.

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.

I never thought I would enjoy gambling) I remember playing cards for change with my cousin as a child, it was very funny when she lost, fell on the table and shouted that it was all mine) Grin
Kids shouldn't gamble but how old were you guys during that time?
I agree with you Children should not gamble!  I think children even in simple games are very gambling, take an innocent game - Get the toy out of the machine, the child will not leave until he gets his way, even though he does not need it at all.  When we played cards we were about 8 years old, it was an innocent game to me, but my sister loved money)
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.

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.
2133  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tilt in gambling on: April 11, 2023, 05:52:45 PM
Have you experienced tilt over the long game?  How have you dealt with it? 
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.

How do you think you can gamble with a cool head, and how do you make yourself a good brake inside)   
Before gambling, you need to set yourself that you'll not be hot headed because it won't give you good luck.

And why do people in general like to gamble? ?
Profit for everyone, entertainment, to enjoy and have fun but there goes those that have been staying in gambling as their bread and butter.

$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.

If they continue to wait, then they are going to lost their battle, because the chances are slim for bitcoin to hit $10k, in my opinion. We may have seen the lowest low for all we know for this bear cycle. And we have been trading sideways for the last 10 days, and now there is a big uptick in the price, and we might see $30k for this month or even higher if this bullish sentiments and FOMO continue.

As for the CPI report, speculators are hinting that the Fed will end it's series of interest rate hike.

If this is the case, the most likely, Bitcoin and the rest of traditional market is going to really because of this positive news.
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.

Now that we already broke $29,000. By that, I am very positive for the short term that we can easily reach the $30,000 - $31,000 level.
I can say that these are healthy pumps because, for the past few days or weeks, we really did sideways and battling the $26,000 - $27,000 support 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

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.

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.

All information are posted here --> https://liquipedia.net/dota2/DreamLeague/Season_19

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

DreamLeague does not have a small pot either, the prize pool is 1 Million dollars. But the real prize is getting qualified for Riyadh Masters. Riyadh has upped their game. I think last year, the prize pool is just 4 million USD and now it is 15 million. That is a big leap from their first tournament. I guess DOTA is quite profitable for them.
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.

Team Secret will always have a personal style of playing the meta of Dota 2 heroes and I'm sure they will promote into Division 1 this year and then , I hope they won't relegate anytime soon.
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.

Meanwhile , I do see why Execration are dominating China DPC.
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.

So as a newbie I am, can I tell people about Bitcoin or will I get into danger if I introduce people to Bitcoin investment and they lost their little capital?
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.
