221  Economy / Economics / Re: Trade War Casualties: Factories Shifting Out Of China on: July 31, 2018, 11:59:11 PM
Realistically speaking, I don't think China would reconsider anything on crypto, especially when they have a trade war around. I am hearing about this war and all this just now, and its a shocker.

I honestly can't believe that China's cost of labor is becoming high, its one of the cheapest countries when it comes to cost of labor. Cutting taxes won't do much right now, as the war is already begun. They need some better fiscal policies. The Chinese Governement acts like a dick and now they are paying for it. I don't America to take lead on this entire scenario, I want the developing countries to go up from this, US is taking everyone nowhere.

There are n Number of factories in China, if all move out, the neighboring countries can take a huge advantage from this. Vietnam, for example has been struggling for ages now, they can do something and make things much better.
222  Economy / Speculation / Re: New Exchanges Are Coming? But It is OK? on: July 31, 2018, 11:37:42 PM
Everyday, we are seeing new crypto currency exchanges start working. So many platform has already opened. But Is that OK? I think volumes are seperating. How this effect prices?
These exchanges, they come and go. Most of them are so useless, they would act like they are building their reputation but in reality, they are just trying to deceive people. Exchanges are asking for KYC and crypto enthusiasts aren't liking it. So most of the exchanges just build their trust and block everybody's funds overnight.

The more exchanges exist, the average price starts to differ. Its a good thing, as the law of demand and supply can work more rationally. If lesser exchanges exist, the price can be manipulated by insider trading and many other illegal practices. Exchanges aren't the only thing that affect the prices.

Because it requires a lot of power and electrical resources are not small, the process of mining (mining) cryptocurrency is usually done with a special computer. Can be a desktop that is fitted with many graphics cards to server farm.

But lately emerged an alternative form of software that allows users with laptops or regular computers to participate in mining without needing to spend to buy expensive devices.

The Honeyminer startup software runs dynamic mining by combining the user's computer into a pool of thousands of other computers. Each computer contributes power to the cryptocurrency mining process.

The "power" donated comes from the computer GPU. If it is not in use, then the computer GPU will be used to participate in processing the mining process together with GPU kompter-other computers incorporated in the pool Honeyminer.

Thus, while the GPU capability of a computer may be small, the combined power of thousands of GPUs can generate significant resources for this collective mining process.
You could actually mine using your laptop back in 2009-2010/11 but then difficulty levels started raising, and so did the power consumption. Mining bitcoin is almost useless you own a huge fucking rig. A mere software won't make things easier, although there are now cloud based GPUs like GeForce Now, but that is not worth it. And this honeyminer is just like cloud mining ponzi scheme from the looks of it, I wouldn't use it nor would a sane person.

Some people are talking about a 200m offer from Juve for Pogba. I think that's insane, even in this current market. And I'd rather have Pogba on my team than Pjanic, at least Pogba can defend a little bit and can a be box-to-box midfielders every now and then, Pjanic on the other hand is just a creative midfielder with little to no defensive workrate...all in all, I think it would be a terrible deal for Man Utd.
I heard the same. Pogba isn't worth 200 Million, especially when there are better mid fielders- Modric, Kroos,etc. Pjanic is slow when it comes to pace, and Pogba is better than him, but Man United have to sell someone or the other, Pogba being the likeliest. Man United even wants Willian as their right wing and Harry Maguire as their defender.

Vidal was a beast for Juve a few years ago, what the fuck happened man?
He was a fucking beast once upon a time, don't know what happened to him.

I got my free bet! Hell yeah! Thanks Jeremypwr.  Kiss

I even randomly made a bet yesterday and won that. Can't get any more lucky.  Shocked
226  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: July 30, 2018, 11:32:41 PM
There are more than just rumors stating that Pogba might go back to Juventus this season. Mourhino might actually do this, since he and the club owners aren't having a good time, as they are forcing Mourhino to sell some player and get some cash in, as they have spent around 90 Million Euros this summer. So selling Pogba can get them a good reimbursements. Not to forget that Juventus might sell Pjanic and they could transfer Pjanic to Man United and bring in Pogba.

What a lit team it would be, with Ronaldo, Pogba, Dybala and the chances of Bonucci returning back. Wow.

I contacted the support about the withdrawal issue, and usually people have to play at least 5 times to request for a withdrawal. But for the campaign, it's being discussed as we speak and Jeremypwr would update us with the info. It will take a short while for this issue to be solved. Have patience guys, nothing will happen.
It has already been taken care of at least in my case. The problem that many people are having with insufficient gameplay means that they have not played a single bet in Sportbet website. Once they play 1 or 2 bets and it doesn't matter the amount, after the game that you bet on finished and the outcome is clear won or lost, you can then withdraw and it will be processed very fast.

Thanks swogerino; good to know going forward.

Sportsbet is well aware of this minor issue, and are currently fixing it.

Sportsbet has also confirmed with me that everyone will be recieving a FREE BET for your extra patience and understanding.

Thank you all very much  Cool
Oh that's a welcome surprise.  Cheesy Thanks for that.

Confirm that I received the payment. I love how the website processed my withdrawal on my phone, it took a second,literally. And the management is fair and just. Can't believe it's already been a month that I took part in this campaign. Keep up the good work, Jeremypwr.
229  Economy / Economics / Re: Not only bitcoin, blockchain can also be a business on: July 27, 2018, 02:22:27 AM
Who the fuck told you that bitcoin is a business? Blockchain is a technology, existing today all because of satoshi, the idealogy behind and the way people use blockchain is what makes it better than previously used technology. I wouldn't say that blockchain is a business, but its the backbone for certain businesses and if utilized properly can do wonders. People say quantum technology is better than the blockchain technology, but quantum is still under deep study. There are not many leads but that technology is powerful. Until quantum becomes the new world aspiring technology, blockchain will probably will go big. Blockchain can be used for almost anything, but people are more busy utilizing it for scamming others and not focus on world's economic and overall development.
230  Economy / Speculation / Re: Great run with Bitcoin! on: July 27, 2018, 02:04:57 AM
In the past months we are experiencing a bear trend but the sign of reversal comes out and now we are seeing a great run with bitcoin. I'm wondering if people are still doubting about bitcoin after this trend. The volume of buying is very strong, I expect $10k in a short run. Some of my advice to those who are new in this market just like me:

Red Market is opportunity to buy - I enter in cryptomarket last month during a bloody market, through my experience in trading I know its a good to buy when people are panicking. I trust the red market with bitcoin and now profit is coming to me.

Improve your skills - Analytical ways of thinking is very important in the market, learn more about trading and how to use some of the indicators this can help you to read the market.

Its great also to have some mentor in real life where you can actually ask for some advice. Have a profitable trade everyone! Smiley
The bull season might be a little more further away than what we expect. SEC rejected the second ETF proposal, and the market crashed after that. This whole ETF thing has got people's attention, and this is the crazy big thing, just like last year's Jamie Dimon bull crap. Hopefully we will start recovering from September.
231  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: July 27, 2018, 12:33:52 AM
Barcelona turned their eyes over Steven Nzonzi the gunners was intrested him at first but after Sevilla demanded £35m for him witch put them off but for Barca he is more valable option then PSG midfielder Rabiot because the parisien side is unwilling to sell him
Bonucci wants to return to Juventus after a unseccessfull 1st year with Milain.
Rumors says that Madrid have reached agreement with Chelsea goalkeeper Courtois but Chelsea yet to have agreement with The Blancos over the transfer fee the Belgian goaly wants to get back to mdrid as he wants to reunite with his family that is why this move is possible to happen.
Wait, so Real wants Hazard and Courtois? What will happen to Navas then? Got to admit, Hazard and Courtois make Real a much better team.

Bonucci was awesome in Juventus, shouldn't have left IMO. If he returns, Juventus would be damn to powerful. Any leads on who's gonna be Juventus's starting XI goal keeper, cause Buffon has left for PSG.  Sad Cry
232  Economy / Speculation / Re: Experts say BTC ETFs could launch bitcoin to 20k, 40k 60k USD on: July 27, 2018, 12:03:52 AM
Financial experts and theorists say ETFs can have the same if not BIGGER effect on BC price than futures, which can send BTC soaring to 20k and beyond!

  Do you guys belief this hype? Will the be the catalyst that sends crypto soaring with institutional money? What are your opinions?
Man fuck those experts.

The chances of ETF getting approved is lowering by the second. Yeah we can probably see a bull run, if the ETF gets approved. But will it? People are afraid that bitcoin will beat US dollar, and if ETF gets approved, their worries turn from just worries to maybe actual reality. There's a lot going on the US right now, but these ETFs won't be good in a long run if it gets approved. ETFs will fuck the entire sole purpose of bitcoin. That is to eliminate the use of intermediaries. How things change.  Cry
233  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: ETF - Informations for beginners on: July 26, 2018, 10:55:18 PM
No way an ETF will get approved, IMHO, in 2018 or 2019.

It would require a 'bureaucratic institution" to 'stamp' BTC as 'legit money', so to speak.

With the current dysfunction in D.C., how would they even make that determination without feedback from the Trump Administration?

So with NO clarity of intent of any kind, this will continue 'forever'. It is the safe bet to 'deny' it is a risk to the SEC's reputation to

confirm, even if the confirmation would only result in the current administration chastising them, why take the risk. Group Think at its best.

It seems a lot and I mean a lot more adoption and acceptance will have to happen first, I just don't see this happening this year

or next year. Sad to say. :
The SEC are delaying the process, which is somewhat making people believe this whole thing to be a fail, which isn't very surprising. I don't they would have to see bitcoin as money, but they see it as an asset, and that has caused this stir up. People have been scammed by such similar practices, as in, there are Apps and websites that make you buy bitcoin but still not have it. They don't provide you a deposit or withdraw option, but a buy and sell one. And funny part is, the sell option are automated. So they sell at a loss, even though they don't. Shocked

The SEC or any government/economy/centralized organization don't take bitcoin seriously. So ETFs are going to be a big fail.
234  Economy / Economics / Re: When will smartphones used for bitcoin mining? on: July 26, 2018, 10:11:47 PM
It won't happen.

Smartphone for bitcoin mining? you are just destroying your phone.

Smartphone as digital wallet, you can simply download an app / wallet and that's how you make it as your wallet.
It already is happening as we speak. HTC is creating a Blockchain phone and another smart phone with such abilities already exits. Its not fully intended for mining, but it does mining apparently.

There are apps intended for mining: https://www.techradar.com/how-to/how-to-mine-cryptocurrencies-on-your-android-smartphone

Althouugh mining will fuck phones up, it is still possible. Phones by Razer and Asus ROG(which has liquid cooling) can do a little mining but again, is a resource drainer.
235  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling addiction mainly due to loneliness and dissatisfaction? on: July 26, 2018, 09:43:37 PM
Honestly, the reason why people are addicted to gambling is because of them being delusional on how they could easily make money. The thought of them becoming rich in seconds is what everybody wishes for, so gambling addicts initially start it for fun, get a small win, and then they start going deep, remain positive even if they lose, because of their delusions, and all this leads to the tragic gambling addiction. Drug addicts get addicted to drugs because of the apparent pleasure. The issue of loneliness and dissatisfaction just isn't the initial reason, bad company of people and the need for pleasure is.
236  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: July 26, 2018, 09:23:04 PM
Rumours say that Cavani has been feeling uncomfortable since Neymar's arrival. The media loves to exagerate so those rumours could be nothing but lies, but I wouldn't be surprised if he triggers a transfer request, going to Real Madrid is a once in a lifetime opportunity. And the rumours/speculations about Hazard have cooled down a bit so who knows what's gonna happen.
Those are more than just rumors. Cavani hated it when Neymar initially arrived in PSG. Especially because Neymar literally took Cavani's entire spotlight. What pissed Cavani off even more is that Neymar wanted to take a penalty in a match and Cavani didn't want to let that happen, so they both had a little fight during the match. Later on, PSG paid Cavani and told him that Neymar would be taking penalties from then and not Cavani. They didn't get onto a good start but they both somehow picked things up. Keep note literally everything I said above is off the top of my head.
- Robert Green to Chelsea done deal (why would they sign a 38yo goalkeeper? wtf?).
They already have Courtois, don't they? I think I read somewhere that he is leaving chelsea?

PSG signed Buffon, who is also old, but then again Buffon is a freaking legend and I don't think I know who Robert Green is.  Huh

About Morata, he is a good player, inconsistent yes, but he has a potential future. I wouldn't be surprised if someone signs him.
237  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: There are many negative issues about bitcoin, what's the matter? on: July 25, 2018, 11:59:40 PM
I'm not sure if in the future Bitcoin will be the digital currency that helps everyone in the world, but hopefully Bitcoin can be said that way in the future, a lot of negative issues that lead to bitcoin now, and not many people think that these issues are related to falling Bitcoin prices. Bitcoin alone in my opinion can be said to be not safe to be chosen as your investment instrument. Apart from uncontrolled price fluctuations and only relying on speculation, bitcoin is also not protected by legal institutions, therefore there are not many crimes found in Bitcoin itself.

The existence of phishing, scammers and others, one of the reasons why fraud and closing of fake companies often take on the name of bitcoin investments is because of its decentralized nature. That is, bitcoin systems that do not have central authority to regulate their circulation. This also causes the value of bitcoin to be very volatile.

What really happened? Is it true that the price of Bitcoin is down because of these things? how to handle it? while Bitcoin itself is not protected by legal institutions?
Bitcoin is decentralized, so it doesn't need to be protected by bastards inside the legal institutions. The community takes care of it, and the same community is also behind all these malicious things. So what you can do is, be a smart person, be responsible and knowledgeable enough to know what is right and what isn't it, and protect the innocent people. Don't worry about the price,it will eventually rise. Everything has a bad side, the only way to actually eliminate these negative issues, is for the erosion of the entire human race, which isn't gonna happen soon.
238  Economy / Economics / Re: To be or not to be. What to invest in? on: July 25, 2018, 11:54:55 PM
Bonds, Gold, Real Estate, and Bitcoin aren't the only means of investment. There are stock markets, you can even invest in oil and petroleum, literally anything. Everything is risky. So anyone who wants to invest should stop listening to other people's advice, there's no harm in learning from their experience but when someone says that now or a specific date on the future is the right time to buy, don't listen to that. Do your own research, do what is in your limits, and what or what isn't your cup of tea. Not everyone is smart enough to be an investor, so put money where you actually can make do with.
239  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin is back! on: July 25, 2018, 11:50:34 PM
Bitcoin surges to $8500. is it ready for a bull run? what can we expect at the end of this year?
What do you mean? Bitcoin is not a comet or a ghost.  Roll Eyes I wish it were but it isn't.

You can't tell if it is a bull run, if the price just rose for a day and the next few weeks are followed by continuous dumps. And since this whole ETF thing seems to be a big deal right now and if things go right, we can see bitcoin hitting above 20k. But we don't live in a perfect world, so fuck we can't expect things to go well, especially with SEC around.  Roll Eyes
240  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin blockchain Or Bitcoin price, which makes it the top cryptocurrency? on: July 25, 2018, 11:47:15 PM
There is something I'm thinking though I don't know if it's right or wrong, that Bitcoin is the prime currency here, not necessarily because of its price but because of its blockchain project and being the first in the system so I'm thinking even if other cryptocurrencies price ever get higher than Bitcoin, will Bitcoin still be seen as the prime cryptocurrency? Or is the whole thing around the Bitcoin centered around its current price in the market?
You have a wrong idea of bitcoin and blockchain. Blockchain exists because of bitcoin and vice versa. There wouldn't be any crypto, had there been no bitcoin. So bitcoin will be the "prime" crypto, for its evolution, its invention, its existence. Eventually a time might come where alts might take over bitcoin in terms of price, because they have a much bigger hard cap. But will that change anything about bitcoin? No.
