In general, holding for long term in an exchange is not safe, you should put it in hard wallet.

But of course you can still hold some, just make sure you are aware of the changes so you can still get access on your account and you were able to comply all the necessary requirement. Coinbased is centralized, they are regulated by law, so KYC is must and probably other information that they might request as they might be mandated to impose it by their regulators.

so if you don't want any problem, put it in hard wallet, secure it different location..

I'm not surprise though, we are in bull run, so a coin that is traded with good volume will always have a chance to grow. There's  a lot of coin I invested, I missed this one actually but I'm still happy I'm in profit and thankful you have shared it here.

question is, will we ride the pump or wait til the correction happen?
2223  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Too many coin in circulation on: March 26, 2021, 09:48:06 PM
Just look at this way, the scam rate in crypto based on the articles I've read is about 90%, so that figure says easily about how this market has become oversaturated with scam coins but too little legit coins. With that, it makes the market more risky to invest especially for those who doesn't have enough knowledge and just came here because of FOMO, they should be aware of this reality first before trying to risk and maybe trim that greediness a bit.

Always study, use your mind before investing, no room for emotion in a risky market.
2224  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: How long can this BULL run last?? on: March 26, 2021, 09:25:17 PM
As compared to the previous bull run that has taken place in bitcoin, this time things are quite different. Institutional adoption. Elon Musk shilling cryptos makes it reach even more people now, and fundamentals are very strong which hints at $100K per coin. HODL is the key, institutions have shown us the way, be it GrayScale or MicroStrategy, just have a look at their average prices of purchase and how they accumulate more on every dips.

The most vital reason here is "Institutional adoption", just forget about that Elon Musk shilling as that would not last, the Institutional adoption is a more important progress and if this will continue that other big companies will join the party, then the market will just be more stable.

I think that gamblers should join hands to exchange their knowledge on upcoming games and decide on the optimal bet so everyone can win  and i think that it will help us a lot what are your thought about the matter?

That doesn't work in real life, if you are referring on casino games where there's a house edge, there's no way you can win without cheating the casino. And for skilled based games, the only reality is that when you win, someone on the other side will lose money, at the end of the day, gambling sites still makes money.

Best way to win is just do the legit ways, if you are interested in sports betting and NBA, join us here.

2226  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: March 26, 2021, 01:52:30 PM
With Rondo traded with the Clippers, what do you think will be the Clippers chances this season?

Rondo from his experienced he can bring additional energy as he can create spaces and good game play to his teammates.
He is a 2 time champion, what more can you expect?
Clippers has a legit chance of beating the Lakers or anyone who will reach in the NBA Finals with Rondo, so I'm hoping he will stay healthy/
I'm already expecting a good ball movement with him manning the floor.

is it a good decision to trade Willams for Rondo?

Seems that Williams is not blending well with PG and Kawhai, Clippers needs game maker and Rondo is one of those quality
player who can provide this role.

Because they area all scorer, they don't have a legit PG that is on a star level, Rondo is the answer to that.

Williams is a good 6th man, he can generate points for the team if needed but Rondo is more on managing the play.
Which one is more useful for the team?

They already have PG and Kawhai who can fill the scoring part, Rondo if blended right he can fill this empty space.


I expect that too.

It would slowly recover. But for affected businesses like airline and travel companies, amusement and tourist attractions, etc., it would take them a very long while to recover because of prolonged shutdown in their businesses, especially those employees who were being included in massive layoffs. I really felt for them, but that’s how it is. Life must go on, and they need to find alternatives that would make them a living.

Until now, the cases of layoffs are very high, I feel that the world is still not recovering and it is still very hard to face the crisis due to the pandemic.  It is not only the health burden that is currently depressed, but especially the economy. 

Maybe next year we will recover as long as no new virus will come in to cause another panic.

The vaccine is already available, there's no reason not to allow mass gathering or getting back to normal, and with that happening, I guess recovery will be fast and people would not be wearing mask anymore, hopefully.

2228  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Staking is not for Muslims on: March 26, 2021, 12:21:29 PM
Well does it means that Muslims don't do business and make profits on they goods, because I don't see why it is forbidden that getting interest on you asset is a sin before God. Let be careful as not to misinforme our self's.
Profit and interest are two different things. Since you are unable to distinguish between two, you don't have any right to comment.
I created this thread to inform Muslims about staking. If it is not related to you, better avoid posting.

Obviously he doesn't understand what you are trying to emphasize in this thread.

Everyone who are in business are always aiming for profit, that is the main goal but everyone does not make the same business, it's just that lending business is not good for Muslims as it's against the law to lend money to earn interest.

If I'm not mistaken, even in for Christian, lending money with interest is a sin but only few are really abiding that law.
2229  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will Cardano (ADA) coin hit $10 During 2021? on: March 26, 2021, 11:54:06 AM
I think cardano is an altcoin that has great potential to be made into a long-term investment, now is the right time to buy this altcoin because the price is still very affordable, I am sure this altcoin will go higher, but I am very unlikely if ADA will  reach $10 by 2021 ,
Do not loose hope, if BNB can pump and reach over $300 then there is no doubt that Cardano has the potential to reach over $10. If you really trust the development just hold them for the long term and you might reach those valuation in the next rally as it does have the potential to be a much better project than BNB and if they can rally like it is the last project to migrate Cardano has the chance to be the next coin to rally.

I believe Cardano has already made its rally, it seems like the market is a bit stable not, it's not anymore achieving a new ATH liked we witnessed in the past few weeks, so it's time for Cardano to slowly fall if bitcoin will remain with this price movement as if it continue to fail to break the wall, it might go bearish overtime.
^ Probably because ADA price was following to ETH bullish trend before, but now, it was defeated by the dominance that made by ETH at this moment and we saw that price slowly going down. But I did not lose hope, ADA still a good project and I still keep holding them on my portfolio. Because I believed that the crypto market price at the end of this year will create a new ATH. Nevertheless, if ADA won't make it, at least I have already set my selling price of 10% getting profit for the sake of my initial capital.

There's no dominance for ADA that is bigger than ETH.

As you can see https://coinmarketcap.com/

Bitcoin has 59% dominance, ETH has 11% and the rest are just in small dominance rate.
I don't know if ADA has a chance to replace ETH but I believe that would be unlikely.
2230  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Naoya Inoue vs Michael Dasmarinas (No date yet) on: March 26, 2021, 11:18:07 AM
Inoue is a heavy favorite just like his previous fight, but @bisdak40 is right, anything could happen and surprise is possible.

As a filipino fan, I'm looking for a surprise as I will definitely bet on Dasmarinas to win this fight..

This is not an easy fight for him but knowing the hear of a Filipino, winning is not impossible.

If he wants to follow the success of our "Pambansang Kamao" Manny Pacquiao, he needs to destroy the biggest names in boxing, and this one is a tough test.
This would be a tough wall for him if he would really like to climb up to the ladder which he would really be needing to beat up this "Monster" so that he would really be getting
new records and at the same time he would really be gaining popularity or being famous in the world of boxing.

Im betting with Dasmarinas with this even Inoue is heavily favored to win but we know on how Filipinos do really make out some upset.

Let see if he could able to make this thing happen.

Good luck guys, it's a tough decision to bet on the underdog but there's always a possibility of an upset.

What do you think will be the betting odds for this fight?

It's hard to find some odds prediction in online, so maybe you guys have found a latest one, please share so we will have an idea about this fight as this seems to push though already.

It is but with that odds, that's too attractive knowing that Filipinos are warriors in the ring.

Inoue is an Asian also but Japanese does not really have a lot of great fighters in boxing, so who knows Inoue's popularity will end because of Dasmarinas.
2231  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: March 25, 2021, 10:22:47 PM
Denver got Howard and McGee, Miami got Bijelica, Boston got Fournier. Chicago for Vucevič. 1 hour 20 minutes to go. Now things will got really busy. Markkanen, Lowry, ...

Looks like Denver got Aaron Gordon too. One of the bigger prizes on the block. Woj said that the NY Knicks are finalizing a deal to get Lonzo Ball and the Lakers are making a last minute effort to get Kyle Lowry from the Raptors. Usually takes some time for the dust to settle and deals to finalize even after the deadline hits, so we could be in for a little more news yet.
It looks like the Heat is also trying to get Lowry, not just the Lakers, and I agree with you that we can expect an announcement about the deal with Lowry in the last minutes before the deadline. By the way, the Raptors already have traded Powell to the Blazers.

IMO, it's not a good idea because that is in exchange of Garry Trent Jr. which is doing pretty well this season and the last season as well.
https://www.sportsnet.ca/nba/article/report-raptors-trade-norm-powell-trail-blazers/

Hopefully the Blazers will not regret this trade.
2232  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Nicole wants to give up her taxi in exchange for bitcoin on: March 25, 2021, 12:13:03 PM
That's a bad idea, maybe she got FOMO.

Giving up a business that is making profit for a hope to make more profit is a bad idea.
Bitcoin is such a risky investment while Taxi business is not, that kind of business, you can make money on a daily basis but bitcoin is volatile.

maybe I would understand if she made that decision during the bear market, but during this time, I can sense a FOMO.
2233  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gamblers - How do you use your signature campaign earnings? on: March 25, 2021, 11:15:38 AM
Well, not all the signature campaing participants are wealthy Bitcoiners or Crytocurrency enthusiasts. Most of them are simply too lucky to have included their selves in a bounty campaign and not everybody gets that lucky chance. So since these not wealthy bounty participants have immediate needs in real life. The would obviously use their earnings and convert it to fiat to be used in the real world. I mean my friends do it all the time and I don't blame them. I though put them on my binance account.

Exactly, just like me, I am not wealthy and therefore I also spend a portion of my earning, of course I don't rely on signature campaign, I have a little business that helps me without my daily living but signature campaign earning are precious and very helpful since joining a campaign is no pressure at all, you are enjoying the forum while at the same time you make money.
2234  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Lopez vs Kambosos ordered by IBF on: March 25, 2021, 10:55:43 AM
After over 2 months, finally we already have the schedule of this fight.

I hope this will be the final date and will not postponed or move.
This is the battle of undefeated fighter but per record, Lopez is just in a higher level as he is still hype after beating Loma.

Hopefully we will enjoy this fight.

Yeah right, the date of the fight as mentioned above some post are close with Canelo's fight might be one of those things that promoters will check out.

The situation that cause by this pandemic might affect everything, if there's no interest that much the possibilities
of postponedment of this fight is very possible.

Let see if this will proceed and same as you, also hoping to see and enjoyable fight once everything got settled.

There's no reason the fight will be cancelled, it's even helpful that the fight is near the schedule of Canelo so it could also attract more attention, I guess they are not having a huge target of the PPV revenue, and as long as there's a crowd in this fight, they will make money for sure.

May 29th was also supposed to be the date of the Mike Tyson vs. Evander Holyfield exhibition fight. It appears that they are having trouble with negotiations but if it did get finalized I could see the Lopez vs. Kambosos fight being postponed. There is also another PPV on May 1 from PBC. There is a lot of competition around the same time but it is still going to be difficult for promoters to make up the huge amount of money they bid on this fight regardless of what date it happens.

I didn't know that, maybe because it was just a rumor and was not finalized yet, but this fight is already final and not an exhibition fight. I hope it will happen as I believe Kambosos could give Lopez a good fight although people doesn't really believe he has a good chance here.
2235  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: March 24, 2021, 01:19:39 PM
I follow the NBA only on the sidelines but i what i really like about this league is that teams that were weak last season can be really strong in the next season, which is exciting.  Smiley
Just look at the brooklyn nets. I don't think that they were being called a candidate for the NBA title once in the last 10 seasons, but now they are so strong.
The tables of the european football (soccer) leagues are way more consistent in comparison.

You can make an exemption on the Nets as they have a new starters, they have a big 3 (harden, Durant, and Irving), just like the Suns also, they have Chris Paul so they also improve this season. The only team that does not have a lot of stars and we've seen some improvement this season is the NY Knicks.

I agree, after a long-time playoffs drought, they will more likely get to play in the NBA playoffs this year since they already manage to get some spot in the top if nothing will change this few months. New York Knicks has improved since the last season and their players are competitive this year. They don't need another star player in the team cause those guys are enough to win guys with their strong chemistry.

We are not used to seeing the Knicks competing as they have really been struggling since Melo's time, and now the young guns are really making an effort to make this team a playoff team, and with a good coach, they are slowly achieving it.

Currently rank number 7 at 0.500 win rate, this is a big improvement.

<...>

I rarely see XRP being included on most gambling sites unlike those above but still I rather prefer XRP than LTC if both are available. Maybe because of the price of these coin which makes me feel like I'm gambling with a huge amount of money.

hahahajust be alert! this technique can also bring bigger losses if yu're not calculating well your risk.
kinda tricky.
maybe that's why some of the gambling websites like to allow it too... same reason but the other side... possibilities.

I believe they are more looking on the transaction fee, if the fee is smaller than other altcoins, usually that's the coins that gambling are using most of the time, remember that gamblers are not investing, so they just want to use altcoins as a payment system for their gambling needs, cash in and cash out, that's the constant thing they'll do.
2238  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: March 24, 2021, 10:51:48 AM
Nets vs Trailblazers - Nets is going to be without Kyrie will James Harden is questionable with a neck injury. That's why I'm quite surprised to see the ML line here as the Portland is not the favorite @1.62. I think Portland will have this one and for sure Dame and CJ will take advantage of Net's missing their two superstar.

edit: Harden is playing.

And no problem, Harden almost registered another triple double, he has 7 rebounds. Jeff Green still playing very good basketball, pouring in 20 points. But I really like Nicolas Claxton performance though, this kid is really making a statement of his own with the Nets.

Good for those who have bet on Nets because they are the underdog here, it's like 2.x odds for them ML.

I thought we were gonna see another great Damian Lillard finish once the game entered Dame Time. Unfortunately the Nets stuck it out and got the win. It’s funny that I expect some sort of last minute greatness from Dame after all his heroic end of game moments.

Yeah, unfortunately, he had a bad shooting night plus the defense of Nets, doubling teaming him makes it hard for him to score. I thought him and CJ and just going to take this one away from Brooklyn.

Perhaps the blow out lost against Dallas the last time was still there psychologically. I put a bet on Portland ML prior to the game. They take the lead in the first quarter and I said that it will be a win for them, too bad.

Nice win by the Nets, and I like the development of Griffin, he is improving, maybe next game he will already get a double digit points. No Irving, yet they are still playing, this team is legit now as long as Harden is playing healthy.
2239  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is for Holders! on: March 23, 2021, 11:59:41 AM
Of course, bitcoin is for HOLDERS and we can proved that in bearish situation because if you really are a holder, you would not panic and dump. Those who hold for long term has already enjoyed their profit now, imagine that bitcoin dump below $10k during the bearish period and now it has reach $60k as its ATH.

What we are seeing now might not last because volatility happens and that is normal for the crypto market and bitcoin, so if we enjoy seeing $60k and $50k, we should prepare ourselves to witness a bearish period which could happen anytime.

Oh look at that Rockets defense.
They were so alive today. Wood, Tate, and Wall. Wooden Wall of Tate.  Grin
Intense game indeed but the Rockets find their way to end the losing streak.
Their so happy hugging each other after the game like a curse had been lifted.


Wow, congrats on this win mate. I don't know what it is with the bookies on giving this kind of odds even if Wall and Wood were back healthy again.

I have not followed this team since Wood got injured but maybe i will take a peek on them whenever they are given these kind of odds in the future.

Huge win, more so if he took a specials which is Rockets to win 11+.. in some sportsbook it's available like sportsbet and bitsler AFAIK, not sure with stakes though but it should give a higher odds hence higher winning, but anyway congrats to danherbias07, nice spot.
