My latest thought is that on weekly bars we are seemingly breaking down some, till it proves me wrong and can break this latest pattern of lower highs then I assume we do cross 56k to lose the higher price action first established around year start.   Doesnt have to be forever but a trading break and revision of lower prices seems more probable for now.
  Of course to hold this area this week at least, break upwards is similarly bullish if we can achieve that much (call me when its over 60k).  Even then I expect us to remain in a trading range for the remainder of this year.

Bitcoin's rally is responding to sentiments - Damn Black Friday. it seems bitcoin is retesting its long-term Holder bias. I think, That's why the market makers test the signal levels at 53k - 56k (this range still shows great optimism) before the pressure needs to break through at the level 60k$. If the above conditions are true, I'm guessing to see a big break at > 60k$ soon


That really was huge, after the Black Friday sale, bitcoin was not able to bounce back at $60k anymore, it's struggling and everytime it tries to break the resistance, it fails, so we have to be prepared for a possibe below $50k price if the support won't be able to hold it long can probably call it a bear market?

Last game Harden exploded for 30 points++ against the Knicks right? I guess he is already there, they already knew from the beginning that Irving is not going to play. But Harris got injured, another key player in their rotation as he is part of the starting five. I think Harden is just doing fine although we wanted some flash of him while he was in Houston, those step back dagger three's. But know he seems to be mellowing down to a pass more player for his stats.

He's stepping down, knowing that he is not the main man and with a lot of options

he is now passing the ball more than taking those shots, but we know him as a great star he can beat you whenever he chooses to attack,
that's how we are seeing him right now whole Kyrie still denying the vaccine, he is stepping to help KD in all possible way that he can contribute.

It's a great improvement if you are a fan, seeing the guy working hard to become a two-way player. I mean, not just a scoring machine, but also a good play-maker.

Harden will eventually master his role with his new team, we cannot see the same stats when he was still with the Rockets as one of the reasons is the change of rules in the NBA that his FTA has dropped a lot, he used to be the number in FTA but now it's not anymore. As long as Harden remains healthy, the Nets are still a team that has a high chance of winning the NBA championship this season.

Not all of them, I have some Shitcoins, but some of them went up and some went down a lot. Most people want to trade Shitcoins because it is quick to make profits, but they also forget that it is quick to fall and lose. The biggest mistake a trader makes in my opinion is to keep Shitcoins for a long time because its price will definitely continue In landing, Shitcoins is not suitable for investment but it is very good for scalping.
yeah, it's sometimes happening to me while checking my wallet and it found to have a value out from shitcoin. Might be a lucky person as I expect nothing from them coz I just let it stay there for more than a year and that seems surprising but that gonna be the last coz I'd never join any shitcoins giveaways/bounties. And I also never think there is a thing like that.

I still have some shitcoins left but honestly, I've seen no improvement where at least I can see it was listed and given some updates but see nothing. It was hopeless.
2264  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: are crypto owners naturally paranoid? on: December 01, 2021, 10:47:15 PM
Paranoia usually occurs when you invest your last money and therefore are afraid of losing everything. If you act like that, then you have no experience in investing. Any experienced investor will tell you that you should not invest your last money, everyone should have a safety cushion.  It is also important to use Top Cryptocurrency Exchanges to be sure of the safety of your investments, or top wallets, depending on how you are going to multiply your investments
I have to agree with that...it was people's mindset and of course, nobody wants to lose their money but rather to grow it. But unfortunately, investments seem not going all that way, we actually experience losses as part and for us to improve then. If we are not going to accept how this works, there is no sense in encouraging ourselves to become an investor. And we don't have to try either as surely we just fail our expectations.
2265  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: GGG vs Murata December 29 on: December 01, 2021, 01:33:19 PM
^ Well in recent memories, Manny Pacquiao vs Jeff Horn in Australia. The fight was held there and despite what the majority saw in the fight, it was the judges who awarded the win to Jeff Horn.

So you can't discount the fact that probably a hometown decision could really favour Murata here. So GGG really needs to go out and try to knockout Murata early so that it won't go to the judges in the end. He needs a clear victory here.

I am least bothered by the possibility that the judges' scorecards will be the final say in this fight. I am in admiration of GGG's boxing skills and power so I don't think Murata is a threat. The way I assess both fighters, they are not on the same level. GGG belongs to a higher class of boxers. I am hoping that GGG will be able to show that he is still the young fighter and simply knock Murata out. But if he fails that and the decision will have to reflect how the judges saw the fight, I still believe GGG will win unanimously.

He needs to show it convincingly though, it there is a close round then maybe the judges will sway it to Murata. And we all know that judges saw the fight differently as compare to us who are watching it live on TV.

So if GGG can't knock-out Murata, he should at least be clear in winning the rounds and show be stepping up the numbers so that there will be no doubt in the judges eyes that he is clearly the winner.

With the power of GGG, he will likely win by KO than by decision and being a professional boxer for so long, I'm sure he also knows that when he fought in a different country, usually the hometown boxer will be favored, so he must win convincingly but to be safe, it should be by KO.
2266  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: December 01, 2021, 12:56:53 PM
They are on fire! But even though they beat Detroit Pistons too, I think that Warriors will avenge that loss right after the Pistons game.

Hmmm... Thanks for this info mate, I have no idea that they will face against after a day off, and that time, it will be on the home court of the Warriors.  That's going to be an interesting game as I'm pretty sure Curry would not struggle twice in a row against the Suns.
2267  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: December 01, 2021, 05:27:36 AM
Suns win streak is still alive, they beat the Warriors.

The score was 104-96 and Curry really struggle in this game who finished only with 12 points from 4/20 shooting.
Great defense done by the Suns to Curry, and even Wiggins only made 10 points this game.
2268  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: December 01, 2021, 04:56:05 AM
^ But they are still hanging on the game, very close for comfort as others say.

Warriors will run but then again Phoenix there to defend so it's a back and forth game and it's really hard to see who will remain on top. The Suns winning streak is on the line and the best record in the league as well. Best thing to happen to us is to see the game going into OT, LOL.

End of 3rd, 80-78 by Phoenix Suns.

Still a close game and we are in the 4th quarter now.

Curry has been struggling this game but this is 4th quarter, it's his time and for sure he will help his team to win.
Good luck to us, I'm a big Warriors fan and I like them to win this game.

I hope that OP gets something and enlightens his mind now. Having the two different wallets has also a different purpose and that it needs to be clear before using one of them. And I believe that you grasp some ideas and know what you gonna do to safeguard your funds out from this risky environment.
I guess, all the replies above are good enough to guide you on which one to choose. If ever you've got a mistake, that was not because we are wrong, it is definitely it's yours.
2270  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Microstrategy Buy more Bitcoin on: November 30, 2021, 10:00:09 PM
The thing is more and more whales are continuing to develop interest in cryptocurrency, so we should expect to be seeing more of investments coming from big institutions like Microstratetgy and the rest of them. This is why I am very positive that the price will be increasing. As long as we still have more bitcoins to mine, then there is still more levels to attain in prices.

So, it is advisable for investors to take advantage of this opportunity, especially those investors that has plans to Hodl for a long term. The price we have now will be small compared to what we will be seeing in the future. The market has this tendency of increasing whenever there is a halving, and we will be seeing another in a few years. So no investment now is a waste, because you will gain from it later on.
The fact that everyone is welcome in crypto, this never be surprising. They have the money, they know the potentials of Bitcoin, and that they can't ignore investing. The more of having big investors, the more it gains more demands, and the results are totally positive which I think that all we want to happen. 

I'd think now that Microstrategy will buy more once there are other corrections happen. Just like the other companies, they hold for the future purposes.

An obscure token Omicron made a massive gain on Monday after the World Health Organization named the new covid 19 variant, the token did a 900% gain but apart from the name being the same the cryptocurrency does not have any connection with the virus.
https://cointelegraph.com/news/obscure-omicron-token-spikes-900-after-new-variant-emerges
I'm really in surprise seeing such a huge pump out from a (joke) new project. It is just a hype made by someone who will take the benefits from it and then let investors will suffer in the end.

Even we called it a very impressive market performance but this never bought my interest and made me risk money buying them. No, I don't spend but rather ignore this. It was very obvious that the developer of this project is no intention to help the community but rather to take advantage and might just scam.
2272  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The altcoin market has become scammer's playground on: November 29, 2021, 11:01:42 PM
After the initial success of Shiba Inu coin, I am observing that the altcoin market has become a playground for the scammers in most literal sense.

There are multiple projects now, which are showing 28000% return within just few hours of launching and then showing a steady decline. There are multiple examples,

Squid games: Defunct
Shih Tzu coin: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/shih-tzu/
Solar energy: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/solar-energy/
Mini BTC: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/minibtc/

Etc.

There are many others as well. It is a money laundering heaven. Don't you think such gold rush has to stop at some point. Otherwise cryptos will never be able to make its way into the mainstream world. People are buying from craps to garbages in the name of cryptos.

Voice your opinion.
The sad reality for now. It could be hard to accept that we are now surrounded by these shit and useless projects but can't stop scammers to create their joke projects. They certainly want attention and we respond nothing, I hope that is what we see. However, the influence of some known personalities brings some hypes and gives the chance for these scammers to scam people in front of them. I believe that they are aware of the situation but they choose to become blind.
2273  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you guys think 0.1BTC is enough to "make it"? on: November 28, 2021, 11:58:00 PM
Considering the supply vs global population = 0.003BTC per person to go around.

Then other factors like not all 21 million will be in circulation due to lost wallets/deceased hodlers who never informed anyone where their seed is, and also an increasing global population and future generations who all want in.


And do you think that it was enough? No, and you can't stop people from owning a lot if they want to or that they have the capacity to buy more. And the fact that not all are able to understand crypto, it simply they don't get an interest of owning this.

Do you think 0.1BTC will be like owning a mansion?
Forget about the mansion, I'd rather put that money in a small and comfortable house as I know that amount is not enough, though. Maybe if you hold 1 full BTC...
2274  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Diversifying Your Portfolio in Crypto on: November 26, 2021, 09:43:54 PM
Diversifying does not mean you make an equal percentage on coins you invested, since you understand that bitcoin dictates the entire market, then you should put a higher percentage on bitcoin for your investment.

you can do the following.

50% - Bitcoin
30% - high volume and high market cap altcoins.
20% - low volume and low market cap altcoins.

That's my personal strategy only, it does not guarantee a profit but it works for me.
2275  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin is recovering on: November 26, 2021, 09:17:55 PM
Bitcoin has made good progress today compared to last three days today Bitcoin almost touched $60k ($59,390) as a result we have seen decent progress in other altcoins as well. Either this is a breakout point wherein bitcoin will proceed towards new ATH or a bull trap but I don't think it would be a bull trap as market just went through correction phase. What's your opinion on bitcoin at the moment?

Bitcoin comes back at small price after it went to recovery towards $60k, and as you can see corrections was still uncertain because it might touch down below $50k of it doesn't show good pumps. Many traders and long term investor would probably take their profit as long as they determine an advanced along the way. We just need to take some more patience before we embrace more successful gains.

Be more patient in waiting for a dip as it could drop below $50k, and on the other hand, it could also recover easily, so buying at the price now is an opportunity already. In the past few weeks, the price movement of bitcoin is not as bullish as it was compared to the previous month, so this tells a bit that bear run is just around the corner and the hype is over because whales had already taken profit.
2276  Economy / Speculation / Re: will we witness year end bullrun or bull trap? on: November 26, 2021, 08:34:15 PM
Maybe this dropping of crypto price is just a short correction or a short effect of the bad news that btc has incountered this is not the only time that the price of crypto fall and I know that everyone know about the high volatility of the crypto price so there is no surprise about it only newbie can now be wory of this falling of btc price.
Its always as it should be because this market wont be called something like this if it were really that predictable and also we wont really calling this to be one if we wont really be seeing these declines and we cant really just see that moving up is always a real thing.For now its neither a bull run or a bull trap.
Its really hard to tell even how good your analysis would be because TA's cant really be precise anytime but somehow having these could really make out
some advantage compared to those who arent using this.
TA is only part of the tools needed to predict the outcome correctly, but we can never be correct all the time. The nature of crypto is being volatile, hence, it will make it unpredictable which most likely majority of the traders and investors would make a wrong judgment, so being smart would help us succeed over them. As for me, the bull run is still here, but it could be a bull trap too.
2277  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How reasonable is the long-term investment in Altcoins? on: November 26, 2021, 08:05:38 PM
We all know that long term investment in Bitcoin is reasonable but how reasonable do you think long term investment in Altcoins is?
I think long-term investment in Altcoins is full of risks but short time investment is more profitable. Do you agree with me?

I disagree with your opinion. because everything in cryptocurrencies has risks. bitcoin and altcoins have the same risk. although bitcoin has proven that every year bitcoin is able to increase its price. but there are some altcoins that also follow the movement of bitcoin on the market exchange. I give an example like DOGECOIN.

They both possess the same risk, whether you invest for long term or short term, the main outcome is only dictated by how you manage your investments.  With knowledge and skills in trading, that will minimize the risk and increase the chance of success, so that's the thing you need to improve as an investor so you'll become successful in investing.

Some investors need time to learn how to invest profitably, their experiences are very vital and they always reflect to learn from them.
2278  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is it possible to avoid all scams? on: November 26, 2021, 02:14:35 PM
you can not avoid all scam, trust me... i am here from years ago and still got scam even if its only small amount compare to my first year in this industry. the only thing you can do is deep due diligent and make your chance getting scam smaller but not 0 chance. scammer were smart people or maybe the condition which makes us got scam ( want to get rich fast because of FOMO ).
Cryptocurrency seems to be created for fraudsters. In any case, this gray, unregulated period of it is very convenient for their fruitful work. Like participants in the cryptocurrency market, all sorts of scammers work here anonymously and it is extremely difficult to establish their identity. Moreover, any fraudster can be in any country convenient for him, where no law enforcement agencies can reach him.
Even if the majority of states unite in the fight against cryptocurrency fraud, there will certainly remain opportunities for them.
Exactly, so it's very important that crypto will be regulated as it will result in the minimization of scams, without regulation, these scammers will continue to use crypto as their playground and they will continue making easy money without worries of getting punished legally. Whether we like to see it or not, there are still people who will invest blindly because they only see the success they can get in crypto, and that is without realizing the potential risk of investing, if they fail, scammers will succeed.
2279  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What will happen with eth 2.0. releasing? Lower fee? on: November 26, 2021, 11:56:39 AM
This article is for you.

https://cryptomode.com/will-ethereum-2-0-lower-gas-fees/

Will Ethereum 2.0 reduce gas fees?
Ethereum has great plans to increase the number of transactions it can handle per second to about 150,000 by the end of the year. Serenity aims to help fulfill this ambition and also make the network more secure.

The proof of stake model used by ETH2 reduces the energy/power-intensive problem of the PoW used by ETH. Sharding on the other hand will increase the number of transactions the network can handle as validation will be assigned to different validators overseeing different shards.

As explained earlier, congestion of the network is one of the main reasons for the high gas fees of ethereum. The upgrade is about to bring an increase in the transaction per second which will definitely reduce congestion of the network leading to a reduction in the transaction fees.

In conclusion, the high gas fee of ethereum is a big barrier for Defi, with more people choosing to buy bitcoin in India because of the favourable BTC to INR rate. Although ETH handles more transactions than bitcoin per second, you cannot neglect the fact that the high transaction fees are a hindrance to the growth of Ethereum and Decentralized finance.

If developers are successful with this upgrade, it will only mean great things for not only ethereum but also Defi as a whole.

So the answer is, it will reduce the fee as it will prevent network congestion.
Hope it's all clear now.
2280  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: November 26, 2021, 11:16:30 AM
Many of us are impressed with the Bulls' performance this season. Regarding DeRozan and LaVine, both have great stats. However, I agree with Yogee that they won't have a chance to compete with Curry and Durant for the MVP title of the regular season. Curry looks unstoppable, and I think he will be MVP this season imho.

I think it's early to conclude this discussion, especially we are not yet passing the NBA All-star week 2022. anything can happen next year but if Klay Thompson will further boost Curry's performance then you can say try again next time to the other candidate because they won't have a chance at all. Stephen Curry has once again become the all-time favorite this year as you can see there are lots of fans on the court when they play just to see him shoot those stunning threes.

Exactly, it's too early to conclude, the race is still on and DeRozan and Lavine are really doing well with how they are making their team successful. Both teams have a co-star, Durant has Harden, and Curry has Thompson (soon).. but with Thompson's being limited, then most likely Curry would have most of the contribution that and that will his stats looks good.
