That odds on Gobert though, Lol, as it was sure that he will win it again. But AD in the last couple of games specially with the Lakers in a winning streak, shows that he can change and block shots as well just like what Rudy does.


Since we are in the era where big men can shoot outside, they need someone like him who can stop those guys from sinking shots inside their range and also at the same time can decently contribute to the offense as well. This is a rare skill for a big man like him that's why he deserves that big payroll since he is showing them right now how much he is capable of. It looks like we will see more high-quality plays from him in the upcoming playoffs and the Western Conference is surely exciting this time.

You won't have such a problem if you know what you are doing because if you just invest the money you can afford to lose, the crypto market situations won't bother you and you don't really need to worry about others panicking and selling their bitcoins even at the lower price, you just simply chill out and wait for the price to recover and make another huge comeback again just like last time. You just continue with your life activities when the price is not going well and forget the crypto market for a while because looking at it almost every day will only make you depressed and sad.

Speaking of individual statistics… I just read a crazy Wemby stat… It said that he already has more career blocks than over 86% of players in NBA history. Granted a lot of smaller position players don’t get a lot of blocks naturally, but I still thought it sounded incredibly impressive. I underestimated the kid.

He may be taking his progression in terms of taking his team into the NBA title slowly but he is not slacking in terms of his records and playing like how he used to in his high school season and this is good because he is not just making good progress but he also taking care of his body to get used to playing more intense games in the future. He should be playing like this and not making his priority too high this time until he no longer has the barrier of getting injured easily and by that time, he can dominate the league like how he should be. As of now, he is just still in the adoption process while taking care of himself without getting any serious career-threatening injuries.

If most memecoins do not step up their game and do not try to include utilities and/or create unique features that could elevate their coin, then I am afraid there will not be much progress to make.


If that's the case, then their hype will soon be over because it's a never-ending loop of ideas, and investors will eventually tired of that and they will lose more sales in the future. except if they came up with some other things or unique ideas that will make their platforms more popular than others just like the other top altcoins nowadays. they were not popular at first but with continued development and support from their investors, they managed to make their community huge and their support and investors are increasing every time they introduce new updates because it successfully attracts more newcomers to buy their altcoins.

Well, you need to take some countermeasures at first because these things are inevitable even if you don't talk about them in front of them when they are young, eventually, they will find out about it and get influenced by their friends or some other people they see on the internet. By nurturing them well while they are young and still listening to you, you can just prevent them and tell them everything about it so that they are aware of everything they come across in the future. At least they already know the danger ahead of them and with consistent supervising them everyday, you can protect them easily from getting addicted with it.
246  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 🔥 Bitcoin Buy and Hold 👑 on: April 03, 2024, 09:22:48 PM
There's no doubt that people who trust bitcoins and bought them when the price was under $20k are now celebrating and also they are regretting not buying as much as they can when the price was lower. Right now those who didn't believe at all and even support those who claimed that bitcoins are done for, are even more suffering from regret because they took the wrong path instead of taking the risk of buying it while the price was affordable to them. But all those kinds of people are not too late, they can still move forward and take the risk right now or they might gonna find themselves regretting because they didn't buy when they can still afford to buy.
247  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: DO NOT BRAG ABOUT YOUR BITCOIN on: April 02, 2024, 11:43:43 PM
If I'm not mistaken there was a site that kept updating about Bitcoin crimes the main story was about people who were kidnapped and forced to take their bitcoins from them after bragging about how much they had in their wallets. these people are actually real and they will come at you as soon as they learn your place you should take necessary measures not to be like those victims who have nothing to blame but themselves, others even have some bad endings because their lives have been taken from them along with their crypto assets. So this should not be taken lightly or else you are putting your life in danger along with your families as well.
248  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Claw Machines: a category of gambling? on: April 02, 2024, 11:09:28 PM
This is actually a kind of gambling because you are buying things without any assurance of getting the items and you don't even have any consolation prize when you put your money inside the machines. Many get addicted of this because they see this kind of game in reels and short videos and once I saw someone wins some decent prizes from playing in this claw machine but they don't show how much they spend before that which make it obvious that they are just luring people to try this kind of game and get addicted by themselves.
249  Other / Politics & Society / Re: The media is greatly influenced by big business. How do we know? on: April 02, 2024, 10:29:38 PM
We need honest media which we all know doesn't exist today because of the people behind them and they only publish events that have some negative effect on their enemies such as crime rates in the government opposition territories and others. They are even using it to brainwash people and make them believe thousands of lies and also manipulate them to be busy on some unbeneficial things by sugarcoating some activities that have nothing to do with how to improve a person's lifestyle or how to make themselves a role model for his countrymen rather they promote malicious trends and hypes on the internet.
250  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Shitcoin games in exchanges on: April 02, 2024, 10:00:47 PM
This has happened before and those kinds of shitcoins are present in some of the exchanges back then and they also promoting it more than they promote legit altcoins that have some solid developers. But forum users and investors backfired against them and they lose lots of their traders and customers and also their investors declined a lot and it ended their era of fooling around with their shitcoins. But right now, they are once again resurfacing and wanted to attract more people with their high percentage ROI when buying those shitcoins they promoted which is kinda deceiving for newbies, that's why it's really good if you take a step to learn about investing first before you actually by some cryptos for investment because if not, you can be easily fooled or lured to buy those shitcoins.
251  Other / Off-topic / Re: How can we help beginners not to get addicted on: April 02, 2024, 09:27:05 PM
That's right, when you first know what you are about to do, you can pause and ponder upon yourself whether it will be beneficial in the future or not. Unlike when you are just blind following your friends whatever they do because once you get addicted, the knowledge you gather in the future concerning its negative effect will no longer be enough for you to stop because you already tied to playing everyday and also you are part of the community now. But when you have knowledge of what you are doing, you are unlikely fall into their trap and you can manage to get out from it whenever you like unless you don't even listen to yourself when things are not right anymore.
252  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Sold all my shib for litecoin on: April 02, 2024, 12:00:00 AM
Recently I bought around 1000 dollars of litecoin (I sold 1000 dollars of my bitcoin for it) and I've already made a 20% gain. I decided to buy more LTC by selling the 690 dollars of shib bringing the grand total of my litecoin to 2000 dollars USD. Is this bad or does LTC have a future? I've seen a lot about how LTC has a possible ETF in the far future. I am a long holder (5 years at least) btw.

If you already have made your own research then have pride to take the risk because it's your own money and you have the full authority where to invest it. we can only give you suggestions but if you already finalized your decision, make it happen and be one of those unique investors who whatever happens in the crypto market, you are ready to risk it all and wait for that long period to make your dream investment come true. Yes! it's not that easy because of the high risk but if they really approve it and count it as one of the possible ETFs, then you have hit the jackpot by just spending a decent amount of money on your investment.

On the other hand, I guess it's still good that the Warriors are hanging on that 10th seed, and now the gap has become larger between the Warriors and the Rockets because the Warriors won, and the Rockets lost. The Rockets are now 2 games behind the Warriors, and I'm a little bit bias here, but they will not get that play-in spot. Smiley The next games for both teams will be hard as the Warriors will face the Mavericks while the Rockets will face the Timberwolves. Like I said, all games between both of these teams are important for that final play-in spot.


That's just how it is for them and such scenarios are common when the time of NBA playoffs arrives, there are always some teams who push their way and exert all efforts to get to that spot but unfortunately for the Rockets, it's too late for them and they only hope is when the GSW will lose every game in the future and they, on the other hand, win all of their remaining games as well which we all know not gonna happen because this is when they are strong when facing such challenge and you can tell that they don't give any easy games to whatever teams they are facing in their last few games ahead.

Sa totoo lang hindi pa dahil iniiwasan ko lahat ng mga yan kasi alam ko ang takbo ng utak ng karamihan sa atin and yun yung di ko kayang e take risk dahil wala naman akong pang tapal if ever na mawala ang kanilang pera dahil sa kanilang variety of choices. yun nga yung time na meron pang mga scam investment na nagaganap dito sa lugar namin, pinagtatanong na ko kung ganon ba ang pag invest sa bitcoin, ako naman na concern sa kanila pinaliwanag ko lahat na hindi ganon iba yung bitcoin investment sa ponzi scams at higit sa lahat sinabi ko ang risk sa kanila sa mga pinaggagawa nila at ang masama pa dun ayaw nilang maniwala na scam yung mga Ponzi investment na yun.

hanggang sa tuluyan ng lumiwanag ang lahat ng mawala yung kanilang pera dahil tinakbo ng nag promote sa kanila, at least wala akong pinagsisihan dahil pinaliwanag ko naman sa kanila ang lahat.
Tingin ko Hindi ka masisisi kung wala kang ititira na crucial info katulad ng votality and security and preventive measures agaisnt scammers at hackers.
255  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The madness of gambling addicts. on: April 01, 2024, 10:30:23 PM

I came to discovered that those that are addicted to gambling are those people that take gambling as an investment because, they will be trying to put more money if they will be able to win millions or billions and, that is their thinking before it will lead them to be addicted to start selling their home things just to gamble and some habit has made some gamblers to loss their job because of too much loan they have collected from the company.

At first, they think they are just entertaining themselves when they play. Still, when they ignore the probability of becoming addicted because they know that they don't have control over themselves once it gets hyped, that's when they going to spend as if there is no tomorrow until they lose it all and what's worse is, they not gonna stop after that. They look for another way to get back what they have lost which is not recommended at all because they only make it ugly and not gonna fix the problem, They should not get into it when they realize they have uncontrollable emotions and quickly stop once their funds are already exhausted.
256  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: We should be looking only at the brighter side on: April 01, 2024, 10:07:48 PM
It makes us positive and not to worry about the future if we act that way because the only depressed investors are those who didn't follow the rules before investing which is acquiring enough knowledge before buying bitcoins and using only the capital they can afford to lose. As for those who were used to investing no matter what the situation of bitcoin price in the crypto market is, they are always positive even at the time when the bitcoin price was about to hit less than $10k last time, it didn't budge while most newbies investors get panicked and ended up making bad decisions which they regret nowadays because they can see the price has greatly increased from last time.
257  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: "Meme" coins are ruining everything on: March 31, 2024, 11:21:33 PM
Of course, the hype won't last forever it's just like the last trend which was not successful until today because all they have been doing was only hyping their investors to buy their tokens like what happened to NFTs and other altcoin projects throughout the year, they don't have long time plan and their road maps are just bait to lure some investors and it was not really good event because after that, the trust rate for altcoins and real projects has dropped dramatically and only those who have connections and already popular are making good progress since they can backup up whatever they are saying on their roadmaps.
258  Other / Off-topic / Re: Can family members help a gambling addict? on: March 31, 2024, 10:50:03 PM
Yes! They can and this is only possible because of how strong their relations are and how they were raised by their parents also countries and cultures are important as well because others are raised independently without getting any help from their siblings or any member of their families since it was not their norm and they sadly ended up homeless because asking help from their family members are impossible. But most countries are not like that like in our families where when one is in serious trouble, there is always someone who helps them from the family and no one will ever left alone no matter what he is currently going through whether drug or gambling addictions.
259  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: People who mined bitcoins between 2009 to 2012 on: March 31, 2024, 10:21:23 PM


Quote from: Upgrade00
Anyone who kept Bitcoin from 2009-12 till now and have hundreds of bitcoins will want to keep that as quiet as possible,
The real paranoid ones still have the coins but still come out and say they lost  it at MtGox or the disk.

That's right one of the huge hacking incidents that happened back then was the Mt. Gox Exchange incident where many lost their bitcoins and probably didn't get it back again since hackers back then could easily escape in the eye of the public due to the lack of resources to track them but right now, with everything is almost centralized, only the mad genius hackers are only capable of escaping without getting tracked by the authorities. as for those who successfully preserved it until they witness the great bull runs, then they are surely living their life to the fullest right now in private.
260  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Rolando Romero-Isaac Cruz to meet on March 30 in Las Vegas. on: March 31, 2024, 09:47:13 PM
Isaac is very motivated to hurt Romero right from the start because of the insult and Romero thinks that he can hurt Isaac but the Pitbull just eats up his punches.
This is the second loss of Romero and the second stoppage of his career maybe this will end his bragging and insulting his opponents.
It's just so funny that the two fighters who stop him are small guys who he insulted, I guess this is the end of the road for Romero.

When I watched it earlier, it seemed like Isaac enjoying what he was doing he was in his rhythms, and his power punches were connecting at a high percentage, which only assured that Romero was about to get knockdown because no one can take those unique power punches throughout the 12 rounds except by dodging most of it. But as for him, he took all those punches and the result was an easy win for Isaac because Romero couldn't take any more of those punches and he was good not to take any more rounds because the ending would be more uglier than that.
