2161  Economy / Economics / Re: Is PayPal plannning to Launch of Own Stablecoin? on: January 11, 2022, 10:32:18 PM
I don't know if I'd take these ideas seriously, especially from PayPal.

Assuming it's still owned by eBay, its probably just trying to get some demand on ebay stocks (since they just seem to fall relative to their profits).

Also, I don't know if anyone uses PayPal for any other reason than it being useful for not putting in card details when paying for stuff, if you instead have to bother to sign a transaction or do something fancier then why would anyone bother?

All this being said, a centralised organisation controlling a cryptocurrency might make it more forgiving from scams and accidental mistakes (eg sending to addresses spelt wrong).

They (eBay) no longer owns PayPal and they have actually become somewhat “enemies” since splitting up but the premise here is the same, PayPal is one of that worlds most corrupt organizations and should not be trusted by anyone. It amazes me that people actually buy and store bitcoin and crypto through them. Steer far clear from these scumbags everyone !
Maybe PayPal is highly corrupt, but the positive mind Keep people using it. eBay and PayPal have been partnered and it got broken in the year 2020. Now eBay is with talks of partnering with adyen for transaction support. Adyen is an Amsterdam based transaction company.

PayPal might've found creating a stablecoin to be cost effective way to make transactions faster than the present system. Maybe that could've interested in going for a stablecoin, but we don't know how far this is going to be effective in real-time.
We would be seeing the effects of application when it is already been integrated.The thing we can do for now is to speculate whether it would really be that a big change or turns out to be nothing or not interesting at all.Every company could possibly made out those kind of changes as they would really be going along on whats the current trend which could neither be beneficial for them.
Of course they had made out such brainstorming whether they do apply it out on the business or would totally just skip out but we've seen that they had
consider it out.
2162  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Teaching your kids to gamble. on: January 11, 2022, 09:34:59 PM
Parents? They are responsible but most kids are learning gambling from the internet not from their parents so the growth of technology has to be blamed if we want to blame something. But as a parent it is important to talk about money to our kids and importance of managing it then these teens will know how much to spend because its not going to be their money on most cases.
Well that is right --parents will not teach their kids how to gamble, that is just because kids are very aggressive and curious about gambling so they are looking for ways how to learn it and perhaps they will become under influence with someone else around them. These days people are prone to the internet many of them have their own internet at home so that is possible that through the internet source some kids learn how to gamble. We have a lot of streamers out there that are where they can learn. So that parents should always be responsible for what their kids do and not involve in that early stage of gambling.
Kids are naturally curious on things which gambling wont really be an exemption thats why as a parent then you should really be responsible on guiding your child as best as possible.
No parent would really be teaching off their kids on things which could really put them on harm but not all parents would really be like that though yet there are some who doesnt really care
and this would really reflect out on what kind of parent you are but there are situations which cant really be avoided that your children would really be exposed
on bad things which you couldnt able to handle or been aware off.
2163  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Establishment of an organization for victims of Bitcoin fraud. on: January 11, 2022, 08:31:22 PM
That's the risk of decentralized environment. Since there is no central authority, it becomes extremely difficult for the victim of crypto fraud to get back their money.

I understand you want to create a group of people who have faced crypto frauds and lost money in that process. But I am not sure how you will be able to help them. Can you please elaborate?

Are you a hacker or a lawyer?
There were lots of suggestions like this in the past but havent still be done because no matter how big a network of crypto fraud victims you have created it would really be pointless.
Lots of multi-million hacks and scams happened in the past until now but still none of them had been able to recover up those funds and give it back to the victims.
Therefore it is really not good to assume or presume that this would really be ending up on positive result or as i said earlier that this would
really be pointless because tracing it up is close or its impossible i shall say.

2164  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: If we follow the 2013/2015 patern, the price will reach a new ATH only in 2027 on: January 10, 2022, 10:59:41 PM
I think if we would follow base on the history charts, it would be predictable and easy to just win all over. It is not that easy, it's not just base on the previous charts.
It might have been different this time and look how the market have grown so much, it could be the same as that but maybe not today.

There are factors and it really affects the price changes. It is no surprise that it could be an ATH later or tomorrow, with in just a small span of time.
It's the normal behavior of bitcoin that will show us new ATHs surprisingly. And even in the past, it had shown the same but those patterns and cycles, we don't know if from this point of time, they'll still be the same.
Patterns could be formed but doesnt mean that it would happen again on present time or in future years to come into this market.People do really love to check out on what happened in the past but if
we do really tend to compare about the adoption and recognition rate then it is truly different in numbers and with that alone then you could already presume that it is unlikely on having the same
situation to happen in the future basing on that alone.

When basic technologies such as AR and VR are not yet mature, are all the metaverse projects in the market a bubble?

Can $SAND $MANA still be invested?
We cant say its a bubble yet we dont see its actual implementation yet but much sure that this would really be having some actual relevance when it comes to application.
Some investors are already preparing for this upcoming trend but well its not an assurance as always as we know so take your own risk on making out decisions.
It might become a trend but if we do make out some research about its application and then really have that real use case then its a good indication
that this one does really have potential.
2166  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Teaching your kids to gamble. on: January 10, 2022, 08:59:43 PM
The truth is that whether parents give their children gambling education or not the children will still know about gambling and since a proper lesson was not giving to them they may do it anyhow they like because they were not taught in the rightfull way on how to gamble.
We as parents does know the risk of gambling specially in talks of addiction but we do able to handle it out thats why its up to your choice whether you do teach them about gambling and tell them at young age that it isnt really good to deal with it because its a waste of money but of course you should really be showing that you arent doing it for yourself because if they do then those guidance would really be just useless because
they would really put up into their minds that on things what you are doing would be definitely considered to be right!Therefore, you would need to hide that activity if you are really that serious
on not for letting them know but just like been said by other users that time will come they would discover it out.

They need a good example if you don't want your kids to go into gambling.
They may encounter it at some point in their lives, where you have no control of.
But if they have solid upbringing and discipline in life, they can always hold onto it.
If they are already mature individuals, they would know how to decide for themselves.
But the good foundation will assist them on how to decide for themselves if they are out of their parents' sights.
Letting them know at early age on whats the risk and it all matters with responsible parenting on teaching them to avoid it at all cost because addiction is something that could ruin someones life.
and on the time that they had encountered it then they would definitely remembers on what you had told them when they are still young.
Building up a good foundation is really something that should be teach on early age in regarding on raising up your children.
2167  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is for everyone but not everyone will be for Bitcoin on: January 10, 2022, 08:27:46 PM
The average person must have probably heard of bitcoin or cryptocurrency as an asset class, however the means to start and engage with it is always a problem. Many have been capacitated with knowledge and understands what the game is all about, but they have been stopped by a financial barrier that prevents them from reaching the other end of financial freedom.

A Person who is still trying and struggling to feed his family, regardless of the headline of  the moon and lambos they see displayed with other sweet testimonies, they can't just be pulled their self from that shell and to invest in bitcoin becomes a challenge. The sad part of life is that it's not fair because a person will be born and will eventually die as a struggler

Lets just face up the reality and this is how thing works because engaging with bitcoin doesnt automatically that it would really be putting you up on a situation on where
you would possibly reach out financial freedom because it would always vary on how much you had invested and on how you do deal up with volatility or making out
investment and how well you do buy and sell. Yes, financial capacity would really be a big hindrance but as a person who are willing or strive on making their lives
better then they wouldnt care much about this issue or situation.
2168  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Prophesy on: January 09, 2022, 10:51:23 PM
One thing is right, at one point crypto won't be volatile as it is now. I mean, the reality is that this type of chaotic behavior can only spell downfall for crypto and stabilization is the only way to stay up float. Mass adoption will demand it as it does with everything else. However, when I say mass adoption, I just can't get behind the notion that it will be the end all be all and that everyone will become a crypto fanatic with a crypto or death mentality. I think the truth will lay somewhere far less extreme and more akin to our current economic situation, but with just one more option thrown in the mix.

currently we can say that we are in mass adoption, but we have a big problem: the lack of clear laws about bitcoin make that hundreds of banks and countries still create barriers in many things related to cryptocurrencies, I'm talking about exchanges that still have countries that don't accept or ask for a license knowing that the local law is very demanding which prevents anyone from creating exchange in these countries, casinos related to cryptocurrencies have problems in those countries, stores still do not accept cryptocurrencies, there are countries where they prohibit bitcoin ATM... at last the good laws about bitcoin are still a mirage. but the day we have it all then we will be 100% centralized and dependent on government laws, but at the same time the scammers will not have impunity as they have currently
Dont expect for regulation or something in related or connected with this stuff because we wont really be heading there yet government would most likely on having negative impressions with bitcoin in the end of the day.There might be some places who do made out opposite which is good to look at but we couldnt really avoid the fact that most of them are against with it.
we do need adoption and recognition and let just the community would decide on how things should really proceed on.As long there would be demand and support on Bitcoin itself
Then its really hard to believe that it would die or been replaced anytime soon.
2169  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: your worst mistake on: January 09, 2022, 10:26:59 PM
recently i made a big mistake in my crypto life, yes i lost $1000 in futures trading on binance,
i am now really frustrated with this loss, and i'm tired of playing futures again, really sucks,
How? should i be able to hold this emotion mate?, seeing my balance going to 0 on binance makes my heart hurt even more.
You shouldn't do futures if you've been losing there all the time. It's not for everybody and you should just stay with the spot for you to practice first there.
And when you think that you're already prepared to get into another level of trading, then, that's the right time for you to scale up and do futures. I've seen people got burned there because they thought that it's an easy thing and everyone can make easy money there but little did they know, it's the fastest way of losing money if you're new to it.
People would only learn if its already too late or mistakes had been done because they do really look after those things which they do seem that it was easy to be done and wont mind on making out some research which do directly make out such step without any reconsiderations until those fucked up times do happen.Futures is risky and they will realize it when its too late or they have lost money.
Stick with Spot first when you are just starting and try out to take a good grasps before you do make out some step up into your trading career.
2170  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Don't bet more than you can afford to lose. on: January 08, 2022, 11:45:55 PM
So, I have a question here, if you are earning like $2000 a month, how much are you willing to gamble that you think you can afford to lose?
Please use the amount as a basis for your answer.

The amount of money I spend on gambling will largely depend on how much I need to cover my living expenses each month. Generally speaking, I never spend more than 10% of my total income on gambling each month. I know that doesn't seem like a lot. And, believe me, I'm not saying that 10% is a safe amount. The important thing is to consider the total cost of your gambling habit before you make a decision. The reason I don't want to risk more money on gambling is that, in case I lose, I'd have to cut back on some lifestyle expenses. And that is definitely not something I want to do.

10% is a good limit and dont go past with that limit if you dont like to experience some big problems yet even though its a small percentage but that 10% of yours will be accumulated then you would
really be finding the amount to be significant thats why its up to someones decision whether they mind of their leisure or would mind on making out some savings for other means like investment
or for more emergency funds which would really vary on each person. Gamble for leisure and dont really mind about doing it for the sake of income because
it wouldnt really be ending up was supposed on what you do have in mind.

Everyone should learn how to do the right budgeting. Gambling has to be part of the budget for leisure.

When we earned money,  the right decision is to prioritize savings first (emergency, investment, and leisure), then we will pay our bills, that kind of strategy will help us to save money for our future and not be able to spend it on useless things, and when we gamble we need to stay discipline to not go beyond our limit as that usually would kill our finances.
Easy to say but not all people would really be having that good control when it comes to their finances and thats why we do see some several addicted gamblers who do end up on having a miserable life just because they had missed out or simply failed on doing such thing thats why gambling business had become a profitable business for its owner due to this kind of behavior.It is really depending or varying on us on how we do handle up our finances because if you do fail to do so then you would experience those unfortunate events.
2171  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Future of the NFTs on: January 08, 2022, 10:50:23 PM
Hi guys, I've been reading this thread, but I want to know one thing from you, obviously if you have experience when it comes to metaverses, since experience with normal NFT games has resulted in most being a complete unsustainable scheme where the devs throw the game to die taking all the money, because they do not know how to maintain an internal economy, how the metaverses can be managed successfully without becoming an unsustainable scheme? in what way can it be? It's hard to trust metaverses if your devs are the same ones who have made unsustainable NFT games.

My honest opinion about NFT and METAVERSE is that many people had earned so much from it, when it was new and some others are still earning from it though but right now it's a game of huge money, many celebrities, and influencers are throwing in big bucks to purchase some making it gradually slipping out if the hands of the ordinary man, but there is hope some few are still gaining well from it but it has just gotten difficult.
There are only two people who would really experience these stuffs which there are gainers and there are lossers and we know that we've been through lots of trends on which
we could really see that this is somewhat been hyped which means people do really have that FOMO feeling despite on looking for its actual relevance.Im not saying that NFT and
Metaverse is shit but dont let those hype blinded you on and be always wise on taking such step specially in investment matters because you wouldnt
know on what would be the next trend.
2172  Economy / Speculation / Re: What make people panic sell? on: January 08, 2022, 09:38:02 PM
One of the reasons people panic is because of fear and greed. many people feel afraid and greedy when the price of bitcoin moves up after a long time of no meaningful movement. When the price of bitcoin begins to touch its peak, many people want to make a profit by selling their bitcoins. The price that moves down causes people to be afraid, so more and more people are selling bitcoin again for fear of experiencing big losses.
Panicking is normal since we are just humans but once we do gain up sufficient experience then we might get used to it and instead on getting afraid you would rather be prepared or do know on what you are doing since you had experienced it back in the past.Mistakes like these specially in panic sell is talking about emotion and if this is your first time then its understandable but you would learn it later on.
Once you do gain experience then you wouldnt be easily get affected by this but not all the times because there are instances or situations which would really be put up
on a hard situation in terms of making a choice.
2173  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: which is a good option?? Trade or Hodl on: January 08, 2022, 08:35:13 PM
Buying and holding is always the best option if you don't have trading skills because sometimes we might lose more money in trading if we don't justify them perfectly. Trading is completely Job which we need to spend a lot of time on the charts and price prediction, if we don't predict them perfectly we might lose our initial capital.
Trading does really need;

1. Effort
2. Time
3. Risk management

Investment

1. Proper selection
2. Fund handling/Capital
3. Crucial decision making on when to sell.

There might be some similarities in between the two but choosing on which one
So its a personal choice whether which side you would be taking in.

2175  Other / Archival / Re: Are Banks afraid of Crypto adoption? on: January 07, 2022, 09:33:26 PM
I do get that banks are worried about issues such as bitcoin being used for the wrong reasons, but that’s not really the main thing; I think that the main thing that worries them a lot is the fact that they feel that bitcoin might be bad for their business, because a lot of people might start switching to making use of bitcoin and use it a lot than their banks which might affect the business that banks are doing.

By the way, I don’t think issues like this should be enough reason for them to be trying to be stopping a really good innovation like this. They should look for ways to handle those things they believe are the bad sides, instead of trying to put an end to Bitcoin. Moreover those things that they are using as an excuse has been happening right before Bitcoin starts to exist.
Are they are that in much concern about adoption of bitcoin or generally with crypto? I dont think so because anytime they could deal with it as long the government permits
and since these institutions are heavily regulated then its normal that they would really be following government orders and laws which we know that most of them are really against
on cryptos existence thats why they dont really bother out on what would or should be accepted.

2177  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Don't bet more than you can afford to lose. on: January 07, 2022, 07:31:09 PM
Well even that amount is too much in gambling, as for my side, I can only allocate not more than 5% per month and it should not exist to 10%.
People have priorities in life and you should not focus on gambling only, it is just an entertainment win or loses that is fine as long as you are happy but it would be better if you will always win per match because for me --nobody wants loses. I know people are very skeptical when it comes to gambling most especially if the money from your hard work, you should value everything you have spent.

Man, my respect to you. 5 % is really wise limit for money to gamble, and from my side, i just shown "the upper boundary" for any person who is not-addicted-to-gambling . 10-15 % is limit, if you spend amounts above, that means you need some help  Tongue
Even 10% would really be already high if we do consider out on having a sensible gambling on where we do only spent out % which wont really be going above with those numbers which i would say a must thing to be done for everyone so that you wont really be ending up on having a gambling problem when it comes to finances. Spent on the amount which you can afford to lose and
dont tend to go beyond with those budget you do have.Neither you are winning or lossing then you should stop and stick to those limits.
Dont let your greed control or overcome you so that you wont really be having problems.

2179  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do I know legit and scam investment? on: January 06, 2022, 10:38:00 PM
Many people do research on everything but stay behind this kind of problem. Since there are scammers all around us , caution is the only weapon. It is said that most of when we invest any new projects if the projects can not survive in the market and be fail we just claim that this is attracted by scammer but truly say that they fail to reach the goal. Some times it can be happen. There are many sign for identifying scam project investment. Very beginning have to learn what is their goal and product as well as their development. You just realize those things carefully, i think you will get better idea.

Most of the time, it is already too late before we realize that the project is going to disappear or end up as a scam.
While some are sincere with their endeavors but the problem is their financial capability, why some are ending their developments.
Up until now, there's no defined strategy how to spot a legit and scam project, you just look for possible warnings.
Like for example, if the project is using fake images of their members, then, the likelihood that it will bad is high.
On point! We do only mind off when we had already made out some investment and realized later on that you had done wrong which is really a very common mistake for someone to commit on.
When im still noob i do really have this kind of problem but once you do gain sufficient experience and awareness then you would able to point out directly which project is worth
and which project should be avoided but it wont really be simple as it sounds yet you would still need to make out some research most of the time.
2180  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Best gambling site in 2021 on: January 06, 2022, 09:42:15 PM
In my opinion, we all must have a favorite casino to gamble at, but of course we must be able to choose a casino that is really trusted to bet our money in it, now many new casinos are constantly popping up and many of them offer big bonuses in games and wins for users, but it is not uncommon for these casinos to end up deceiving users, therefore I suggest being very careful in choosing a casino today and never choosing a casino based solely on what they offer us, but choose a casino that really has a good reputation in gambling and is also trust in paying its users.

I personally will usually choose a casino by looking at various criteria such as:
1. Reputation
2. Gambling Authority License
3. Casino operator and brand license
4. Technical support
5. Payment Method
6. speed of withdrawal of funds
7. User Reviews
User review is that i do check out the most because whenever it do gets positive feedback then of course this would be talking about including those all of factors that mentioned on 1-6
because it wont reach out such condition or reputation if they dont have those kind of qualities which is a bit understandable and speaking on choosing about best sites
then there are lots currently on the market.It would really just depending on someones preference on choosing one.
