2301  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: El Salvador will be the richest country in the world in 8 years? on: May 20, 2022, 11:43:40 PM
The article is written in Portuguese so I used Google for translation, however it can be said that this is a little exaggerated, it is not likely that the adoption of Bitcoin will make El Salvador one of the richest or most prosperous countries in the world in 8 years!!! This is a great exaggeration. Bitcoin cannot solve all the problems of this country and make it compete with rich countries that have great resources. The country suffers from great economic problems there, and Bitcoin can be a solution to these problems, but it will not make this country rich.
Bitcoin could be an answer for those struggling economies but it could not make a single country rich. But i have also high hopes that El Salvador will grow and become a developed country, but being rich i think it will take a lot of years before it becomes possible. However, for those already big and developed countries who plan to adopt bitcoin as a legal tender, then its highly possible that their economic status will grow higher and becomes more progressive.

Often times here, some new forum users have been unable to develop consistency in their contributions here mainly as a result of frustration. They abandon their accounts here before they can get their footing and become an important contributor to various discussions, how sad Embarrassed...and how we other forum users have missed out on another maybe perhaps golden perspective.

This is a wake up call to newbies especially, and all those who are considering quitting forum.

-Your opinions are valid and we want you to stay. Big things always start small, don't get discouraged because there seems to be no attention on your post and no merits given regardless of your activity.

-Even if your contribution get deleted and you get criticism for your point of view, don't get discouraged, work on yourself to be better, but still remain yourself.

-If it is taking you very long to increase in ranks and you almost feel like it will not be possible anytime soon, don't get discouraged, you will get there.

It is okay to take some time off, but please do not cut us off from your perhaps golden contribution.
Success never comes in an instant as everything is done by hardwork and perseverance. And those legends here are the best proofs that everything started from a scratch, and now they come to enjoy the tail of their success. But it can never be possible if they resort into quitting during their first attempts in crypto. Yes, those first days are very hard that one could think of finding another path but if they know what it takes to succeed in the future and become the golden contributors in the forum, then refusing to take the challenges will only mean a self-loss in the end.
2303  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How was last crypto bear market on: May 20, 2022, 08:35:40 PM
When everyone starts to fear and panic and say that “the sky is starting to crack”, then it is the best opportunity to invest and buy more, but the problem is that most people think that the game is over and they should sell.

So, always when you invest in digital currencies, consider that your money has been stolen or disappeared, and then any profit, whatever it is, will be a good profit for you. As for the loss, it is not calculated, and therefore no matter how low the price is, you will not be afraid to sell.

I remember being a beginner and my purchases are still the best investment so far.
Most of the people in the crypto market enjoy only the moment when its already a bullish season, as they can sell and make profits. And some even make wrong decisions to buy more coins hoping that the value of those coins will still keep on surging. But here comes the bearish season where everyone thinks the moment of losing, when in fact this is the best time to build our wealth trough buying and hodling those high potential coins.

I think the last bear market was definitely hard for me as it comes from a very bullish trend and ends the market very bearish unexpectedly. But i never thought that crypto will be over, as i see new opportunities to earn when i started buying again at their very affordable prices. That made me realized that every season in crypto brings a lot of opportunities to earn.
2304  Economy / Speculation / Re: Reason why I put all my money in Bitcoin as a newbie on: May 19, 2022, 10:58:58 PM
Am still new in this space both in cryptocurrency and in this forum and seeing what is happening even to stable coins lately make me decide to put all my investment funds into Bitcoin since Bitcoin has never crashed or a billion coins getting minted out of no we're and dump into the market just like Luna tereUSTD did, so for your peace of mind I advise newbies to rely only on highly decentralized crypto Bitcoin. Until you learn enough to decide which risk to take and which not to.
That's your choice as you have the money to invest and get lose or gain in the end. But you should also know that investing all your funds into a single investment means a lot of risks and there's no way you can have them back once you lose them all. If i have to invest, i will still invest in bitcoin because i know its high potentials, but never will i decide to put all my money in a single basket as i may lose them all in the future.
2305  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: It's all about HODLing on: May 19, 2022, 10:17:27 PM
Truth be told, hodling crypto currency is more about holding than anything else.
Those who have mastered the art of hodling have made the most money trading or investing in crypto currencies. The most basic skill one should have is HODLing.
I guess if you find it hard to succeed from investing and trading, then you should learn to master them as well as long term hodling. Because if you only come in the market for long term hodling, it seems that you didn't take full advantage on the good opportunities in the market. Yes, long term hodling may promise huge profits in the future, but it will be more profitable if we also do good in trading and investing so we can attain financial stability the easier and faster way.
2306  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Another warning for every NEWBIE! on: May 19, 2022, 09:55:40 PM
This is just a short reminder since I want to highlights the important things you need to know before investing.
There's a lot of news about suicide incidents because of losing money on their investments, and I don't want you to ended up on the same path so please do your own research first and again invest only what you can afford to lose.
Suicide reports are probably the worse. Newbies must be not careless and join the bandwagon cause it hyped. The Luma incidents show how bad it is for some investors who even loan their investment for such projects. Yes luna has a good experimentation process of stablecoin however there are some plots they didnt see coming and vulnerable to such whale aggresive powers. What I hate is the founder is so arrogant maybe this is karma for him but bad for the investors whom suffered more.
Newbies should never resort into suicides whenever their investments are not meeting their expectations. Investments have always its chances to fall, some may take a long time before it falls, while others shut down easily after a week or two. So investors should always be open that not all investments work, and that they should never lose hope and still focus on the positive things that will bound to happen in the future. And always invest on the amount they can afford to lose to avoid life's struggles and miseries in the future.
2307  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 31st South East Asian Games on: May 16, 2022, 09:34:13 PM
I should congratulate Vietnam in advance.

As they're the host of this 31st SEA games, they're also showing that they're not just a host but the top to take a lot of medals. What I'm always looking on this event is Timor Leste.

There's really a need for them to invest more to their athletes and trainers. But I know someday that they'll be up from the bottom.
Looks really impressive for Vietnam. It's clear that they have well-trained athletes that could really bring honor and recognition to their country. Good luck for the other countries' athletes too. I'm sure all of them have different skills to be recognized but only those who got the best one will be able to get the rewards. I will keep myself updated on this as my country is certainly one of those who sent great athletes too.
2308  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your NBA Champion this season? on: May 16, 2022, 05:00:26 PM

Yup, you're definitely right about that mate! Honestly though, I'm really seeing that they could upset the Goldenstate Warriors on this series because if they can exhaust the Phoenix Suns just like that after having a 0-2 run then they really have some chance to upset another favorite team this season.

Luka's average PPG in playoffs are off the charts already and that ain't easy to achieve. His consistency will indeed pay off this time with of course some help of his team.

Who knows, right? We will only conclude this series after we watch the games, but with how Mavs eliminates the Suns the chance is possible to repeat that and win the west finals, still early though and knowing that they will be facing a complete set of skills and talents a team who also have capabilities of turning things in favor on them.

I'm expecting to see another do-or-die series if Luka will have the same support from his team not only with their offense but mostly

on their defense,.
Now that Luka has succeeded in turning down Suns, i guess he will still be consistent and focus more with the help of his team on how to shut down Warriors this time. However, Warriors on the other hand is also preparing for this as they have witnessed how the Mavs overwhelmed and dominated the Phoenix Suns. Whatever the result in the end, whoever will be held as the champion, that team is certainly the best among the rest, though all teams in this season are definitely exceptionally skilled.
2309  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Western Conference Finals (Warriors vs Suns/Mavericks) on: May 16, 2022, 04:37:40 PM
Yeah, I don't think that the Warriors are going to make the same mistakes as the Suns did. They are not going to underestimate the Mavs here, on the contrary, they might have been drawing strategies on how to stop Luka and shut down the rest of the players. Strength of Warriors is their defense, so we will see how they will match up. But I do agree that they will be the favorite here, not seeing a game 7 though, maybe another game 6 series win for them.
Yes, Warriors will certainly be the favorite here, as they are battle-tested and have been playing with great defense. And with the presence of the lead players like Curry, Thompson and Green, that makes the team very tough to beat. But as they say, always expect the unexpected in the finals. What seems to be the underdog could end up to be the favorite, who knows?  Mavericks have also good and outstanding players that could also make Warriors struggle and defeated in the end.
2310  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you Still Supporting And Playing On Newly Launch Casinos on: May 16, 2022, 02:29:10 PM
Therefore, before I deposit something in a casino, I try to look for giveaways, slots free rolls or sign in bonuses to test them first. I do not recommend depositing money in newly opened casinos, because we can never be sure at the beginning what the owners intentions are.

Your recommendation is very good, normally some casinos give welcome bonuses to us members of the forum and we can use them to give our reviews and we can clearly affirm that our reviews are taken into account most of the time.

On the other hand, and reviewing some threads, I have seen that some new platforms seek to quickly carry out a signature campaign and seek the best campaign managers, that is, they seek to be successful from the beginning, which seems to me to be a movement very smart, if a recognized campaign manager is in charge of a new casino through the signing campaign, this gives credibility and more confidence to everyone.

New casinos are smart enough to take shortcuts by getting the best campaign manager that will build trust and good credibility on the casino itself. Hence, checking on the reviews is not given much importance because mostly, having a reliable campaign manager alone can already guarantee that the new casino is great and legit. However, as an honest advice, its still best to go on the details first before you jump into having your own conclusion.
2311  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Celtics vs Bucks 2nd round Series. on: May 16, 2022, 02:06:30 PM
Boston Celtics now finally end the series. I don't know what happened to Milwaukee Bucks.

Still, this series is hard to predict at the start as both teams are doing well. The Celtics will now face the Miami Heat at the Eastern Conference Finals.

Salute to Giannis. He did his best. Milwaukee Bucks will come strong next season.
Giannis has always been doing his best in all his games, but i guess today's season is not really for his team. Bucks wilted and made bad moves, and end up defeated by the Celtics. I guess many have expected that Bucks will win this game, and that Celtics are the heavy underdog. But oh, it turned out that the prophecy of Celtics' coach made into reality, and that they end up the game sweeter than in their previous games.
2312  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA _ Phoenix Suns vs Dallas Mavericks - 2nd round on: May 16, 2022, 10:10:57 AM
Another heart breaking loss for Phoenix and the repeat of last year result, the top team are out and now Dallas will move to the finals against the Warriors. Phoenix have an early lead on this series, its just that Doncic has been unstoppable and the Suns can't handle it. Too bad for CP3, he lose the chance again to at least fight for the championship well if he can still play, maybe next conference he can have the chance.
Doncic and a great help from Dinwiddie lead the Mavs and played their tails of from the start to the finish. This made them dominate the ring the whole game and that Suns have totally lost their chance to advance to Western Conference Finals. Well, this defeat must be very embarassing on the part of the star players of Suns but everything happens unexpectedly, as the used to be underdog is now close to its championship.
2313  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: May 16, 2022, 09:50:13 AM
Suns already down by 40 points and it's just the third quarter. No team can ever come back from that with only one quarter remaining. I thought Bucks exit was a bit embarrassing because of the point gap but this is even a more shameful way to get eliminated. Anyway, congrats to the Mavs for returning to the Western Conference Finals after so many years. Warriors in 5 (or 6) Grin
I guess this is just another game that proves anything is possible when it comes to the finals. Suns has not expected this either, as they missed shots and made bad passes which people are not used to it, as if Suns was not the best team during the regular season.  This game has brought Mavericks' dominance and Sun's disappearance. Congrats to the Mavs and be ready for the Warriors, as another battle-tested team will also be put into a big test.
2314  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is everyone that got in late last year in the red now ? How bad is it ? on: May 15, 2022, 10:59:29 PM
I'm still in the green...more than double my initial investment. But then I got in nearly 2 years ago.
If you can handle your investments well despite of the unpredictable market conditions, then there's no reason to stay in red. Although losses are inevitable in crypto, but you can also maximize your profits if you do invest with caution, and of course investing in potential coins like bitcoin.
2315  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Mind Over Matter In Gambling Using Pendulum on: May 15, 2022, 10:20:44 PM
Damn, honestly, I don't know what you are talking about until I read the link you provided.

So this is being superstitious (more like) in gambling which I don't really do.
I believe in my skills and my strategy is very simple, and that is betting against the Public, way more effective than anything.

Anyway, thanks for educating me about that kind of technique, I'm now aware about it.
Pendulum has been used only in the ancient age, so i don't have any idea that its still working up to these days. But just like you, i prefer to believe from my own instinct, my skills and strategies in gambling. And of course, a little bit of luck adds more to how we end up doing good in gambling. However, using pendulum might be very advantage way back then, and that magic nowadays may not be working anymore as everything in gambling purely based on luck and skills.
2316  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ever thought of doing your thesis on Gambling ? on: May 15, 2022, 10:06:26 PM
If you’re a curious one and finding for the answer, you can really have this kind of topic but of course you must be on a legal age so you can get datas that you may needed in order for you to accomplish this topic. This is an interesting one, you just need to know the scope of your study to lessen the respondents. Doing your Thesis is one of the big challenges in your student career, if the University acknowledge it and even give you a reward, most probably you really down a great job.
^ Definitely right, I remember before when I was in college solving a thesis is really hard, it needs your full time and focuses on it so that you can defend your thesis and I think it is very hard if it is a thesis in gambling. You must know the fundamentals to the technical function of the gambling casino and it should be there is a lot of research that you must do. The 2500 euro seems quite big and probably that will push me to finish the thesis earlier than the expected date.
Wow, if there is a good prize waiting for it, why not? But let's admit that making a thesis and gathering all the valuable information related to that is definitely not an easy task to do. You can't just simply put them into wring without doing some vivid research from all those reliable resources. And we should always be specific and create a clear details on it, so that the mentors that will be judging the contents of the thesis will approve it. And lastly, as there have been a lot of studies in gambling before, then we should always come up with the latest principles and facts about gambling that made our studies look original and unique as compared to the previous thesis in gambling.
2317  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: PH banned online cockfighting - Worst gambling-related cases recorded! on: May 15, 2022, 09:46:15 PM
I believe the online cockfighting started because they are finding a way to still continue doing operations in the midst of the pandemic. And I am still in doubt that this would be stopped successfully. I have heard that the current administration is not so clean with regards to its intentions, and that many government officials are also involved or behind such cockpit hubs. At the end of the day, it would depend on the citizens if they will still continue to support such activity.

Online cockfighting in the Philippines has been giving a lot of revenues and big income for the country, but recently worst cases have been reported that made it more controversial. But i don't agree on banning this, even if i'm not into cockfighting but i do think that in events like this, the government can resort into  putting more restrictions on cockfighting, and banning it totally is not the solution. In the first place, the gamblers themselves should also be responsible enough to set limitations so they can control their losses.
2318  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Commentary and commentators in sports. on: May 15, 2022, 09:30:03 PM
Commentary is underated in sports and commentators are not giving enough recognition for the role they play in sports.

I had this recent experience where I streamed live a recent premier league game and it had no audio, although it was expected to be an exciting game, I did not enjoy the game, not until the audio came up and i could now hear the commentary.

Commentators add colour and enhance our viewing experience, they are well informed about the sport and the teams in contest, and give real time updates on a live game that can even make someone new to a sport pick interest. Without commentary and sports commentators, some sporting games will be entirely very unexciting and eventually boring to watch.

Can you enjoy your sports viewing experience without commentary and  commentators?

IMHO, watching sports without those commentators certainly lose my interest and excitement in the game. Most particularly if you are new to the game, having some sports commentators could be very helpful as they make us understand more about the game through the updates they keep on giving and on their expert analysis they made. As most of them are not just those regular viewers but some of them are former players and even coaches in certain sports, the reason why their views and concepts of the game are very valuable to hear.
2319  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your epic fail experience in gambling on: May 15, 2022, 09:15:02 PM
That's why I'm also not into auto bet. Anything that you are not in control of is just not good even using bots in trading is just not for me as well. Its best to manually do it. Make it worth while and enjoyable in gambling like sports betting, blackjack or poker because at least there is the thrill and  you do it yourself.

I have my own epic fail but too like parlay on sports so I stopped doing it because there is just no way I can predict all.
It's best to avoid auto bet completely as it will only leave a big mess and lose all your funds especially if you don't understand it in the first place. The reason why i stop betting in lottery because i realized the longer i bet, the bigger the funds i am losing. Since the chance of winning is very small, that makes a very high risk. Now, i also have come to enjoy gambling, thanks to sports betting. Even if i lose sometimes, but i guess there is more fun watching in it.
2320  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Let's always remember how important our lives are. on: May 15, 2022, 08:58:53 PM


The current state of the crypto market may result in more unexpected suicides among crypto coin holders and investors.
I'd like to use this medium to provide some motivation to my fellow cryptocurrency beginners. This is an unforeseen scenario that will be difficult to overcome, but let us remember how precious our lives are. If we lose our money but remain alive, let us have more hope because if there is life, there is hope; suicide is not an option; patience and commitment are the best options right now.
I'm not sure how many people have committed themselves as a result of the current crypto market situation in different parts of the world, but suicide is never a good.
Our lives matter to our society, families, and friends, so let's stay strong and bear with this predicament; I'm sure it will pass sooner or later.
Do not live for money, but live for your life. So there's no enough reason that you allow yourself to suffer just because you are losing. Losses are inevitable in all aspects of investments, so you don't need to blame yourself or other people. And if you lose, i guess you can still do better in the next round and succeed. Suicidal is just a cowardly excuse, and certainly a big sin. If you lose, face it and accept. As long as there is life, you have all the opportunities to succeed so always see the positive side in you.
