As far as I know, those governments do that because Binance doesn't want to be controlled by regulators. .Binance had the similar problems in Canada, the USA nceJapan and Germany also. This news didn't affect the market badly. But I hope that Binance doesn't get hurt much from these actions.
Well if Binance does not want to be regulated, then probably UK won't allow Binance to be a part of it because if they do, then they should comply with the rules. I don't think the government  is against with Binance. It's the Binance itself that does not want to be controlled.
2202  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Elon Musk notices the existence of "Baby Doge Coin" on: July 01, 2021, 10:41:36 PM
That doesn’t make any sense, that tweet is full of bluff and hype, look at the price of DOGE right now it didn’t change that much that means to me the hype was gone  for now and the bear market will take over. There’s so many newbies loses their money because of this DOGE hype, Elon must be shame on that. Anyway, that’s not a financial advice as per them to be safe on blame, but if you’re a newbie don’t trust that hype.
Elon is no longer a big deal to crypto because  people are already smart enough not to trust with those coins that are being hyped by Elon. Doge coin is not even making a good price increase so might as well, it will continue to dump in the next days.

Newbies might still trap on the tweets of Elon but if they can be more careful and always DYOR first before deciding to invest, then they can avoid Elon and won't end up losing their capital too.
2203  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin will never be gone on: July 01, 2021, 06:51:50 PM
i agree with this because technology is our future such as the internet and it is also possible to change to fiat currency because of the advantages that is being given by bitcoin such as cashless transactions. And we are aimingd at that technology right now so i believe that  bitcoin will never be gone. And most people use internet everyday. slowly people and government are accepting cryptocurrency and such as a mode of payment for example El Salvador.
The world is heading into a cashless transactions and bitcoin is perfectly made for it. Especially in this time of pandemic, cashless transactions is even more applicable. I think with the advantage of bitcoin, it can never be replace or gone easily. With big institutions around, bitcoin will gain more popularity and usage all over the world. The government might adopt it soon but it might take more processess and will take more long years before it will be fully realized.
2204  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Are the bulls back? on: July 01, 2021, 06:12:59 PM
What the heck is happening  Shocked? The market looks to greenish today im currently seeing some big green candles on BTC and other coins charts, are the bulls back or what?

I think they are playing with us. Yes, I also drew attention to the fact that there are buying and the market has turned green, but not enough to say that the bulls have returned. Perhaps it is right now that large players are buying cryptocurrency, or perhaps this is an emitting. Now it is difficult to say something since the crypto market is highly manipulative and this is what confuses. Personally, I am cautiously waiting for what will happen next, as anything can happen. I think we need to wait and watch for a while.

Now that you say yes, the market has become a complete trap for small investors. There is too much manipulation and too much fear in the market, which delays the arrival of bulls. it seems best not to act at this time of the market. Quantity can be increased whenever possible.
We all know that this crypto market is full of manipulations so we should not be surprise if the market turns suddenly into a green one. This might be a bull trap or just a price correction that will definitely won't last long. Let's just wait for more days and slowly watch the market how it moves and how the coins react from this manipulation.

It would be better to remain calm during these days and keep hodling your coins as we don't know the real condition of the market whether its still bearish or back to its bulls again.
2205  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Has the world become greedier since BTC? on: June 30, 2021, 11:56:36 PM
BTC or not, people have been always greedy since its in our nature, i think that in our current time people are highly connected, so people seeing others how they are living in luxury and have a lot of money and they just want to live like them so they try in any way to get to that state, and i think bitcoin has made it easier for us to tdo so, at least not until recently, because you see how the price changes by a couple of thousands in a matter of hours and making millions from such a change is possible, so that is probably why people have gotten more greedy with bitcoin.
Bitcoin brings a lot of opportunities in life that will make us feel financial independence and so people out from its greediness grasp every opportunity that comes along. But IMO, not all the time that people become greedy, it's just that they are smart enough to invest in a new innovation that has a bright future ahead compared to those traditional one.

There is nothing wrong with bitcoin because it even help us to improve our own economy and even the world economy. The government might have misinterpret bitcoin and think that bitcoin will be the source of all greediness in every person.
2206  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: After China, Now it's Mexico's Turn to Ban Crypto on: June 30, 2021, 11:26:17 PM
With news like this, not many people will see the market is changing so much and self-government intervention to control and prevent the loss of control over it from the governments of the countries.
However, I must admit that while it is not something new, the impact of such news is bad for the market in the short term.
Negative news like this will definitely affect the crypto but temporarily because in the long run, bitcoin will still exist as long as it remains to be decentralized and big institutions are now moving towards bitcoin.

For me, news about banning bitcoin is not new to us since most of the government are not adopting bitcoin yet. But who knows things might change in the future. As they say, bitcoin don't need countries while countries need bitcoin badly.
2207  Economy / Economics / Re: The trend of prices is still upward, any hope for downward? on: June 30, 2021, 09:56:42 PM
Why would these businesses decrease prices, if they have a legitimate excuse to inflate it? The consumer is the real victim of this whole Covid epidemic, because they are the ones that are absorbing the price increases. The merchants and middlemen are still making their profits and they are just pushing the cost onto the consumers.

I can take a bet now that even if this pandemic is done ....prices will not be adjusted to a economy that e recovered. (They will keep the prices inflated to make up for their so-called losses during the lockdowns) Roll Eyes
Exactly. Since this covid 19 has made most of the companies experience losses so there is no way that prices will tend to decrease even if covid 19 will be gone and people will recover from it. Price inflation will continue to happen so they can recover from all their losses.

I am a consumer and definitely the most affected about this pandemic but i never see any signs from big companies that they are adjusting their prices and i respect it. I know everyone of us especially for those who run businesses are greatly affected by this pandemic.
2208  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Never sell your Bitcoin? on: June 30, 2021, 09:28:26 PM
many people spend their money to buy bitcoin with the aim of making a profit in the short term they don't think bitcoin is for the future, but only people who know the future profit is bigger they will hold bitcoin in the long term.
Of course you are absolutely right because Bitcoin not a short term investment coin but it's a popular Long term investment coin. If anyone wants to invest in Bitcoin, he should invest more than 5 years.
I believe bitcoin will be very profitable if you chose to invest in it long term but that doesn't mean that you will just hodl bitcoin for the rest of your life. Bitcoin will lose its nature as a currency if you never spend it and you won't enjoy your profits if you just keep it in your wallet.

I myself is also hodling bitcoin which i can prepare for my retirement but it won't make me less as an investor or hodler if i spend some of its profits when times gets rough for me. I am investing for profits that i can make in the future and once i have it, i will surely enjoy every bit of it.
2209  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do whales manipulate the market? on: June 30, 2021, 08:58:00 PM
Since crypto market grew big market players manipulate the whole market to take profit from weak hands. Everyone is aware of it and some are just riding with the whales. Even stock market are manipulated by rich people. They sell the news and spread FUD to manipulate the market. Even tweets by Elon is now driving the market.
There are a lot of whales surrounding the market and those that are big players that will make fud and when the market dumps, they are the ones who will take advantage first and buy those cheap coins as much as they want. They are mostly the rich people that will always wanted to control the market so they can always buy crypto coins as many as they want and continue manipulating the market.

Market manipulation isn't new to us and so investors are already used to it. If they can invest in those high potential coins like bitcoin and ethereum, market manipulation can't stop them from reaching new heights everytime these coins start to surge.
2210  Economy / Economics / Re: Poor and middle class as a mentality on: June 29, 2021, 11:43:07 PM
Thats the reality if you're born poor or rich. I remember having a classmate (in middle school) from a well-off family, our teacher is nice to him and you can notice the difference on how the teacher treated other kids and this particular boy, its unfair.

Anyway our mindset depends on what's our status in reality, but even we are born from a poor family it doesnty mean we dont have a chance to change what we used to be. There's an education as the stepping stone and though the teachings are different compared to rich people, the point is how we drive ourselves after the lesson that we learned.
I was also raised by a poor family and they always instilled in my mind that education is the only hope to become successful in the future. And i agree on it because now that i'm already a degree holder, i can see the differences in the opportunities between a graduate and an uneducated man. But in the end, education will not make you an instant successful but the things that you've learned and how you apply it in the real life.
2211  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which Cryptocurrency has best future? on: June 29, 2021, 10:43:50 PM
Invest to those coins that has higher potential in market rank, because they will have a good future specially when listed at the popular market like binance or kucoin. Other than that, I am not sure what future it may bring to us if we risk our money on that cryptocurrency. What I am looking for now is profit generation, so I believed that xrp, eth, btc and doge would be a sustainable asset in the near future if you're knowledgeable about them.
I think btc and eth will generate more profits compared to other crypto coins. It's very clear and investors know it from the start that bitcoin and ethereum have high potentials to be more profitable in the near future. Doge coin is also in good shape at the moment but i don't see big future in it since it was only hyped by a known celebrity. And those altcoins that create high volume in the market and are top coins in CMC will be great investments too but they are more risky to invest compared to bitcoin so be more careful and smart in investing.
2212  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Moving Bitcoin to El Salvador on: June 28, 2021, 08:56:38 PM
Indirectly, like it or not, taxes are an integral part of this. because if crypto has become legal in the government, this tax is definitely one of the things that is mandatory. and for plans to move your wallet, I think you don't have to do that because there are so many other options that can be taken apart from moving your wallet
For me, there is no need to move your bitcoin into  El Salvador. There are a lot of ways or options where you can transact your bitcoin if you are only thinking of the tax you will have to pay. But if you come to think of it, a small amount of tax will create a huge impact on the country you are in. So you don't have to evade from paying those taxes because you will also get benefits from it. Just learn to live with it. In the end, when bitcoin will be widely accepted in all countries, taxes will definitely become compulsory.
2213  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The right time is now! on: June 28, 2021, 08:23:12 PM
I think it's true that now is the right time to buy some coins that have good prospects where we can buy them cheaply. I see in the current market the price of crypto was down in the last few months, it's good to buy. Personally, I used this opportunity to buy a coin that I had been eyeing before and I hope the price can go up as expected so that I can get a profit. But please note that it is possible to have a high price will take a long time with market conditions like this .

You are right, the market is moving positive today, happy because ethereum is above $2000 and this is a sign that the market is getting better soon, choosing altcoins that have the potential to skyrocket in the short term is a good thing to cover the losses I have experienced since June.
Not just for altcoins but even for bitcoin it's still a perfect time to buy more these days. Yes we can see that the market is starting to be positive today seeing some of the coins shortly increasing but we can't be sure if this will the start of returning into bullish so let's grab the chance of buying those potential coins while their prices are not that really high.

If we can have them to add on our portfolio, then it will be a good start for us to keep being positive even if the price might continue to fall down because eventually, the market will have its own time to recover and that will mean we can start to make huge profits when that time comes.
2214  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence Jr - August 21 on: June 25, 2021, 08:45:35 PM
I don't know, but Spence Jr. hasn't fought a boxer as fast and as Manny, so we might see him expose in this fight as some experts believe that Spence is too slow for Manny Pacquiao. We have a lot of predictions to consider but it's the speed I believe which is the advantage of Manny.
If Manny Pacquiao is in his prime touch then he will trouble Errol Spence Jr with his speed and there is no debate about that and some here are confident that he is really training hard even though he did not fight in he past two years and if Manny Pacquiao can bring that same style of offensive boxing he will easily beat Errol Spence but the odds makers are also looking at the age and so is the reason Manny Pacquiao is heavy underdog.
Let us not go back to the past and play the "what if" game, let's face the reality, let's not make Manny's age as an excuse if he loses in this fight because that's part of the entire game, he wants this, so he has to take the risk. Just always remember how he fought in the past, especially his last fight where he beat an undefeated fighter, that's a huge success already and he deserves to challenge Spence because of that.
2215  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What are your top picks to buy the dip? on: June 25, 2021, 05:29:30 PM
times like this are of course very important and crucial for both traders and holders, some are starting to get stressed because of the ongoing decline and some are still busy in adding assets and one of them includes me Smiley it would be better if eth went back downput right now pretty good because I'm one of the people who still like eth until now and I'm still very sure eth will continue to rise with the current trend which is starting to look good
Ethereum and bitcoin are always my top favorites. ETH is definitely in a good shape right now and if its transaction fee will be lower down, it will gain even more demand and maybe in the next days, it will come up with new ATH again.

Bitcoin on the other hand, is making most of its investors thrilled and kinda stressed because of its price continue to decline. But apparently, it gives us more good opportunities to buy cheap bitcoin that will fill our bag to add on our portfolio.
2216  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: June 25, 2021, 02:07:00 PM
There's no MECQ, there's no reason to delay the opening of the new season.

They are not delaying it, they are making sure the opening will be a success because it's a bubble, once there's a problem inside, everything will be affected. As we read in the news, they are already practicing now, they conditioned themselves to the opening of the new season, and that's already great news. NBA is still happening and they are back to normal so the excitement is really high, so people are not talking a lot on the PBA return, besides, this is business, they just want to ensure the opening will be at the right timing.
2217  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: E on: June 25, 2021, 12:32:54 PM
^^ And you can see the Suns frustrations here, Booker getting 3 consecutive fouls in matter of minutes. Chris Paul missing shots that he used to make, Crowder fouling out. So overall, it's a tough battle for the Suns at Clippers home court.

But they still lead the series, but the Clippers has the momentum. Pat Beverly hitting a 3 at the corner really seal the deal and then that hook shot. I think defensively and offensively, he is the difference in this game.
Beverly is as tough a defensive player as there is in basketball. Suns barely scored over 90 tonight and they averaged almost 115 during the regular season, that says alot about the defense from the Clippers. I  also think Booker and the facemask was an issue for his game. Look for the Suns to come out strong in game 4.

Yep, even though Booker has the advantage in height, Beverly make it up with his speed and experienced closing the gap. I remember him shouting on Rondo not to let Booker go to his left because that his strong side. So obviously, he has done his homework and have studied Booker.

Exactly, that mask seems to bother him + defense = terrible shooting night for him. But as a sign of a superstar, he should be bouncing back next game and try to redeem himself.


They will think of bouncing back but it's been 2 games that Booker was limited, and for me that's a big advantage of the Clippers as they are still playing with a good production coming from different contributors, and man, Terrence Mann the 3rd quarter man had some good game especially in the 3rd quarter. If the Clippers will be able to tie this series, then I think the momentum will be on their side.


I say Devin Booker is doing great without Chris Paul I think this just made Booker limited to score a lot and maybe because of the mask on his broken nose that prohibited him in his play, or the Suns are still coping with the addition of Paul to the team, but aside from that the L.A. Clippers is making a production set up a good team play with Paul George, Reggie Jackson, Ivica Zubac, and Terance Mann If this continues the momentum could be turned in L.A. Clippers favor, But Stake.com's odds Phoenix Suns still got the edge on odds with 1.83 -2.02.

Are you talking about the game 4 odds? I think the line did not change, in game 3 the Clippers is +1 and some with game 4. Though it's still too early, the line could move but I believe there will be no significant odds movement in game 4.
2218  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: June 25, 2021, 12:00:52 PM
The suns chemistry is ruin by Chris paul return, in the last two games their style of play is very different, they were attacking and moving without the ball when Chris return they need to wait for Chris to set up a play, they should have tried what is working, certainly, the Clippers can't keep up with the level of plays in those two games, but I think game 4 will be alright for the suns.

Does it? I don't think so, CP3 has been a big part of the success of the Suns, yes, they played a slow pace but I believe that's the game plan. Pane is a great back up of CP3, but he was injured in the game so that's a big loss for the Suns, in addition, booker is not shooting well.

Payne's injury is really a big loss, I agree with that, he only played 4 minutes in game 3 when he was the top scorer in game 2. He played 37 minutes and made 29 big points, so if you'll look at that figure that's really a big loss. Not only his offense but his defense as well as we know he is a great defender.

Some casinos here have a bad reputation based on our own perception or in this forum, however, they are still operating profitably and that still keeps them in business. Reputation is really important, it's built through time but personally, I still play with a gambling site with a bad reputation because I have a good experience playing with their site.

This is a big business with an expected big competition, so we should not judge right away if we see a site with a bad review as no site is perfect and if they really are scammers, then they should be already in jail.
