Hold tight your bitcoin and don't be tempted to convert it to altcoins. Just use other money to trade altcoin and ensure to buy good ones and not Hypes that easily fade away.
Always give bitcoin the highest percentage in your portfolio and the rest diversify it with your trusted altcoins. Bitcoin might make another dump in the days to come before it will reach another heights so be careful and more patient in your investment. Altcoins are in its bullish season these days but you can never be sure if they will suddenly dump and lose your expected profits so never put bitcoin at its high risk. Just invest wisely.

I'm a fan od pacquaio but for stating his ambitioun I'm so dismay about what he think right now.
We have the same take, politics is not for him, he only won because of his popularity but in terms of knowledge, for me, he is not yet qualified, he needs to learn more. What he promises is to destroy the corruption, I guess Presidency has more to tackle, not only that, and I am not confident in his capacity. He said in an interview, if he is anointed by God, he will become the President, it could be true, but being a religious person and into politics handling the Philippines with different religions, I guess he might have a problem with how he will balance it.

Thanks, that was indeed another win.
Anyway, I like to put my pick in advance, I feel confident as I'm on a winning streak again, hopefully, it'll continue.
Game: Pelicans vs 76ers
76ers is on a winning streak, 6 at the moment, the current line is 76ers -9.5 against the Pelicans. Though Pelicans is struggling, they are still not out in the playoff race, they need to win this game and if they'll fail, I believe they'll at least cover.
-9.5 is too high IMO against a desperate team, therefore my pick is Pelicans +9.5, good luck everyone.
I'll be riding with this pick, I'll be putting a little on the Over too it's currently at 227 @ 1.96 The point spread has moved, from -9.5 to -7.5 already. You got lucky you bet early, I'm not riding anymore as the odds also decrease. hehe. Instead, I'll ride the over 227. Elsewhere I'll be having my bet on the Miami Heat -6.5 vs Timberwolves
I'm going with you here, Heat should win this as it's a necessary game, I believe at home they have the advantage and they can cover the spread. 19-15 home record is not bad.

I do not really think that Lakers care about winning right now. All they care about is getting everyone back on the court and helping them get back on their schedule, as long as they have a 100% ready AD and 100% ready Lebron when the playoff comes, that is going to be more than enough.
I think that I'm agreeing with you on that. As long as their roster is complete, no matter where they are right now, they're going to qualify to the playoffs with that strong they have. They'll be having a match later against Portland Blazers and both of them has the same standing, 37 wins - 29 losses. The sad news is that Lebron may still not play, and probably Davis is available but I doubt they'll win this game. As of now, the betting line is -7.5 for the Blazers, line tells that stars of the Lakers are missing, and who knows, Davis might not play too.

^ It should be tomorrow right? It seems like everyone here was able to see the match between Canelo and Yildirim. And we all know how good Canelo’s performance on that much. It was like a win-or-die situation for Canelo. That is why I would place my side with Canelo, basing it on how he fights, the strategy he has might outplay Saunders. It is just that, possibly Saunders would stay until the last round. They both have iron chins and I am expecting a scorecard here, I can tell.
Canelo's chin I would is better than Saunders though. But the big question is how is Saunders gonna react if Canelo's touch that chin. It might not be a one knock out punch, but for sure it will put a dent on Saunders chin and then Canelo going to the body. But there is a possibility that it can go to distance as well. So lots of factor to look here, before putting our bets. And I'm sure if it is going to be tomorrow though, as far as my timezone goes it will be in 48 hours. It will be 48 hours from now, we have different timezone but the hours counting is more accurate to determine the exact time and date. It's gonna be a war, hopefully, this is against an undefeated fighter, and I like an undefeated fighters getting into the ring against an icon as they usually work hard to get this big success. Just think how the world of boxing would think if Canelo would lose, all praise will be on Saunders and he will be up for big fights after.

Hopefully, this is a good fight as both are undefeated. I'm not familiar with these boxers, maybe they are not popular yet but since they are undefeated, I guess I'll give them time to watch this fight. Also, it's good that the odds are already out, other matches do not have early odds like this fight. Maybe I'll go with the underdog, good odds for an upset win.

so my three team would be Ginebra, SMB and Meralco, can't wait for the upcoming bubble season.
Actually, based on my own rankings, Phoenix should be on my 3rd but Calvin Abueva was already traded even they already offered a max contract to him. Some say it was because of the financial capability of the company so they need to let go some of their high-paid players. Phoenix FuelMasters was one of the top performers in the bubble last year, climbs up to standings surprisingly, and I think they can handle well those top SMC and MVP teams. But without Abueva, that was hard to do. Don't forget that when they lose Calvin Abueva, they had Manuel now. I believe that Manuel although not as good as Abueva but he can contribute to the team in terms of defense and offense, and his experience is big for the team. There's a lot of new teams this season, I'm really excited if those trades and acquisition did really help a team, and see on what team is successful. Phoenix is a strong contender with Vic Manuel in the roster but there is a big problem for the team now as Matthew Wright demanded a trade and if the management won't heed for his demand, he threatens to go back to the States for good. Rumors had it the Magnolia is interested of Wrights service and they are planning to let go of Paul Lee and Jalalon. Hope these are all just rumors and Wright will remain with Phoenix. Jalalon is a big help, but of course, if they will get Wright, I think he is better than Paul...however, they need to sacrifice Jalalon on that.. not a good idea IMO. I guess they have to stay at the current line up, observe first if they will have an improvement now that they already have Calvin Abueva.

We actually never know and recognize Tesla if not because of Elon Musk. That is the real sentiment now, it adds to the hypes in the market but that is not enough to say it was a sort of manipulation, neither we call it as a crime. Because if tried to figure it out, Tesla never ask and force people to adopt and invest Bitcoin, it was the mindset of the people to invest because they saw big companies are already there.
And besides, we are already in the bullish season before Tesla has arrive together with Elon Musk.

After reaching 3k now, it looks possible for ETH to go down again. Like Bitcoin right now, BTC is really undecided where to go next and price has declined from 65k to 57k. Maybe we see a similar drop for Ethereum now after reaching 3k to drop back to 2.5k.
What do you expect?
The downtrend will come soon that nobody knows exactly when. It is a wild guess I think and we live such a kind of excitement. Furthermore, I believe everyone are expecting and might already anticipating that event. It is too long enough for the bullish season that people are also wanting to have its end. However, not all our prayers will coming through. So just for now, I keep myself being prepared for that and take actions cautiously.

If you had planned to inverse money in cryptocurrency,you should skip of stock market.If you start to believe something,kindly believe it fully and hold till it recover.Don't exchange money from the invested asset for the emergency need.It should be skipped to avoid of loss.Mostly the new traders do this and suffer a lot after the mistake.To escape from loss,patience is needed one in trading.
But, I don't think there will be any mistake if anyone will be investing/trading both in stock and crypto at a time. It means you can be successful even in these two sectors if you are planning your investments or trading properly. There is nothing here about believing in to one thing completely; you can believe into two things completely because that will be more profitable for you. I suggest anyone to go for both investing and trading at a time because it will give you more chances to make good profits regardless of what will be the market conditions. Well, that also depends on your capability and since we know that trading could really hard if you don't have an interest about this. If I'm going to choose which once either trading or investing, I should have to choice investing since I already know myself that I'm not good in trading. Maybe I look to that someday but as I've said, that only happen if the interest still there. Because you can't underestimate trading and you can't tell that was an easy job coz mostly many were ended badly.

(b) Most times, only the rich can get richer from trading. Sounds very controversial, but think of this, if two friends follow a signal and enter a trade, one with $50 and the other with $500. If everything works out well, both will be in gains, but the profit margin of both individuals will be different. This Illustration further supports the claim that only the rich can get richer from trading.
Yes, this point is applicable for both real and virtual life. Rich men goes to richest and poor goes to more poor. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) This actually happen in trading when the lower capital trader expect bigger than what actually he should according to his capital. But the man who has a big capital his expectation is not too big according to the capital. Because when a trader with 500$ get profit 50$/10% is good for him. But if the trader with 50$ want to earn about 50$ more then he have to gain 100%. Most of case this could not happen lower capital trader lose all the fund slowly. Not only in trading but even in all aspects of business, rich people have higher opportunities to maximize their profits and make them even richer. The same thing applies in trading. But the only advantage in trading is if you know how to manage your coins and can do trading well, you can still generate good profits and makes them bigger if you apply your skills and strategies in trading without having fear of losing that may happen anytime.

Congratulations for taking a bold step to buy at that point and if you haven't sold your bitcoin till this time then you must have made enough profit, the year seems to remain bullish and the target is $100k for bitcoin which means we would continue seeing new highs after a retrace in prices. When i said bold step! truly it is a bold step, no doubt at that price many was thinking bitcoin has reach the top and might dump, many refused buying but now see where prices has fled to. You took a risk and it paid you as well kudos.
yes, not many people are as brave as Op by buying Bitcoin when the price is high enough. there is nothing wrong with buying Bitcoin at any price, for sure we have to be ready to take risks that will happen later. I would appreciate it if Op still holds his Bitcoin to this day, because the decisions he made could have had satisfying results You know buying bitcoin doesn't only mean that you have to hold it for long term or even short term because as long as you've seen growth in your investment and gives you satisfying profits, you're free to sell it and buy back again. But i think the most challenging part of buying bitcoin even in its peak price is risking to hold it for long term considering that the price would suddenly drop off and leaves you at a loss.

I really don't think that we need to argue which one is better or not because we have also a different market preference. And we know also that both coins are having an important role in crypto.
We have a choice and I think we need to choose the one that could help me a lot without considering the price and transaction fee. I choose ETH because I was confident enough to hold this coin for many years and I see such potential to rally than BSC. And the other reason is that I know more about ETH, which seems to be an advantage when you are investing in a project.

Do you think he does it because he wants to make money? Do you think he speculates with Dogecoin?
I am wondering if he will keep tweeting about after the bull market is over.
That probably a money-making deal. Elon doesn't make such an aggressive move if he can never get benefits from it. What did he do? He is just simply helping Doge to pump, he tried to manipulate it and he succeeded. I'm not sure if we have to attack and blame him because some people are also happy with what he does to Doge. But even it results positively, I'm still not going to invest in Doge, not really my type.

I think our worst experience as people who engaged in the crypto world won't be far from scammers, thieves, and hackers. But as a bounty hunter especially, I experienced many unpaid bounties, arrogance bounty managers or developers, and manipulation. However, I make it a great experience that taught me to be stronger, wiser, and more meticulous in this crypto world. We can't trust anyone here, we need to guard ourselves and learn about risk managing. I try to become more selective in any project that I took or invest although it won't be guaranteed 100% that all will be perfect but yeah, at least I try to be better.
My experiences are just quite similar to yours. But i never regret having to enter into scam projects with all my sleepless nights because i always put in my mind that being here in crypto brings all uncertainties so i should not expect profits all the time but also losses and failures too. I have been here in this crypto market for quite long and i must say, i have become wiser and smarter with all those struggles i had faced way back then.

Be careful fellas, we are in bull market and many bounty campaigns are popping up, remember that some are just here to take advantage of the bull market so look deeply before promoting any project, make sure they are that good enough to avoid bad news after months of promotion
May the hunting force be with ye🙏
Yes, the advice you express is very good and useful for those who are lazy to do research on every new campaign that has sprung up now, because scammers always take advantage of any moment to trap new people in crypto. The more the scammers come here, the smarter they are in tricking people into joining the scam project, so that both beginners and people who have been in the crypto world for a long time will also find it difficult to know which projects are scam and which are not, It would be nice, before joining the project, we did research first and I think that is important

Its a quite a hard thing in the market. If you cnat hold. You will regret for sure. So learn how to hodl. First step is not checking market more than twice a day. It will decrease your chances of selling in small corrections
Holding won't be as easy as that. It's easy to say hold your coins but definitely hard to perform most especially if you don't have funds for emergency cases. But if you aim to make a lifetime savings through holding, it's a good start but make sure to manage your funds properly so you won't end up selling your coins after few months from holding. The profit might not that big but still very useful.

the most important thing is when you start plunging into a world like this you have to be ready to lose your money. because if you are not ready you will be shocked when you know what the real facts are like ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) because when you are in the crypto world we will not always benefit, many people think that crypto is a way to get rich instantly. but in reality it is not that easy, a lot of beginner traders who immediately without thinking long plunged without knowing the basics of trading like what and as a result many complained and many lost a lot Many lost and complain because of the way they think about how crypto will make them rich instantly. I think the moment you enter into crypto investment or trading, you must be ready for losses anytime as this is the major risk anybody should deal. One thing also is being in an investment or project you don't know that much but you still take the risk because of your target for bigger profits but you only end up still in a loss because you have been scammed and fooled again.

Is Ethereum and other altcoins taking over and replacing Bitcoin? If so, how fast will this happen?
I don't think it can happen. Because bitcoin community itself is bigger and bitcoin already to be core of cryptocurrency. Not that easy to altcoins to replace bitcoin although it have more price than bitcoin. In past there are some coins which have higher price than bitcoin but never replace bitcoin. Altcoins will never be too relevant like what bitcoin do. So it will never take over bitcoin's position today nor in the years to come. Altcoins prices may be surging these days but believe me its temporary. Once the market turns into bearish, prices will drop off and even bitcoin do that. But knowing the fact that bitcoin dominates the crypto world, it will never be that easy to replace it.

How would you define what is to be "rich"? Is it about having enough for living or is there something else that you would be looking to accomplish to be rich? Is it 1 million USD? Is it 1000 bitcoin? what are your thoughts?
Having enough for living means you’re rich. If you’re going to be able to afford most of the things you’re going to be needing daily ,from basic things to things that are more advanced , then you’re already rich. Everyone has their own view of what being rich is all about. There are some of us who just wants to be able to afford the necessary things that we need in life and not be in lack of any of those things. Then there are others who needs enough money to be able to show off by buying unnecessary and costly things that money can get and just be showing off. So, people are totally different. Yes. People have different mindset on being rich and even myself, although i don't have bundles of bitcoin in my pocket but i considered myself a rich person. I know i'm rich because i'm contented enough of what i have right now and i never look for what i don't have. You know the secret to be rich is not being greedy so you can have all the wealth you desire but being a selfless person so you can be an instrument for other people to become rich too.
