2401  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Be Cautious and take Caution. on: April 23, 2022, 10:36:02 PM
This is nothing new. Scammers will take advantage of any situation to make money. There is a lot of stuff in the media people asking for money to help them escape the crisis. I have come across some on my facebook feed, pictures of women and children in distress. There is usually a writeup that they need money to save themselves. Anyone who falls for this scam has themselves to blame. I believe there is a official Ukraine Bitcoin address for donations if you're feeling generous.
Ukrainian Scam Donation Posts and Users
This is the sad reality that we should be more aware of. Whenever disasters or tragedies happen, the first thing to do is to offer help and assistance, and the scammers out there are also acting victims so they can take advantage of the situation. While this has been becoming more rampant, i even think its more inevitable. So i guess its only up to us how to take caution and be more wiser not to be scammed, always take time to research first to end up donating in an official and legit wallet address.
2402  Economy / Economics / Re: Im ready to adond all banks and my friends also dont need banks anymore on: April 23, 2022, 10:01:40 PM
There is no difference between a bank and a crypto exchange with a payment card and an ATM. Both are custodians that see all your transactions that you conduct with them, have your KYC information, potentially sell your private information to third parties, can freeze your account or transactions, and will work with government agencies against you. Exchanges are becoming more and more like "crypto banks". And stablecoins are the new bank notes.
As long as they are centralized, all the transactions are still monitored and can even controlled by a group or entity. So they still look the same. And since majority still look up to banks, then it would not be easy to replace and i even think that traditional banks will stay for good. After all, crypto exchanges are becoming more centralized so most likely, traditional banks and crypto exchanges are bound not to compete but to integrate crypto in fiat banks in the future.

How to determine the trend for bitcoin?

Share tools or your opinion on determining the turn for bitcoin.

The topic is interesting because correct knowledge of the Bitcoin trend will help predict the direction for 98% of altcoins according to my observations.
If it's about the trend, I'm into the news.

Together with the chart, if there's a sudden increase. I'm quickly looking if there's any good reason for the pump and a news that's related to it. But if there's none.

I'm waiting for a few hours until a news comes out. And if you're good in technical analysis, you'll just have to check and see if there's a pattern or trend that's being formed based on its chart.
By keeping updated of the current news and events, then you are also going to learn what's the trend. And if you will look for the trend for bitcoin, always monitor its chart and stay active on the social platform. And through visiting sites that create bitcoin predictions, you will also learn the latest trend in bitcoin. Most especially, if you engage yourself in bitcoin blogs or watch some of them, they'll bring out the trends in bitcoin.
2404  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Why some promising newbies fail in the forum. on: April 23, 2022, 08:45:07 PM
Under the point called under-meriting is because some newbies didn't post constructive that won't be merited for that reason and some didn't get merited even if the post is merit worthy. I have said in my other post that I know someone who is a  newbie and are introduced in Bitcointalk correctly but still he did do a plagiarism which gets him banned even though I told him about the forum rules. Some knows about Bitcointalk the wrong way so those newbies will surely quit.
I guess that is expected for most of the newbies that they are not yet capable to make constructive post since they still lack the knowledge and experience, unless you're a professional newbie. And yeah, i do really believe that there are boards here in the forum that are often to receive mostly the merits compared to the other boards, but maybe because some of them are certainly quality posters so they deserve the merit. However, when it comes to plagiarism, that is a big violation in the forum and will definitely make the owner of that account permanently banned.
2405  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is there any altcoin to be millionere by holding up to 5 years from now ? on: April 23, 2022, 08:19:01 PM
So far, I can only suggest to hold popular Altcoin such as Ethereum, and BNB is what might be able to benefit the next 5 years. We don't know what the other altcoin is like, but now the two coins are the top altcoin at the moment, and I think it will continue to be like that. If the development of Crypto prices occurs rapidly in vulnerable to 5 years, then these two coins will also be included in it. DWYOR.
For now, ethereum and BNB are the most profitable altcoins that have high potentials to grow their value in the future. So long term hodling may work for them and just set a target price when to sell, but making you a millionaire by then is still very hard to predict. However, if you prioritize bitcoin over altcoins, i guess there is more chances that you will be a millionaire in the future. Save a good number of bitcoin, definitely that will eventually make you rich 10 or 20 years from now.
2406  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are new bitcoin users early or late to the party? on: April 22, 2022, 10:42:44 PM
I feel like I'm too late and the btc price is literally just gonna go sideways forever. Or maybe a slow gradual push up. Maybe in 20 years it will be worth half a mil.

I dont think we're gonna see anymore gains like people of the 2010s and 13s experienced. and even 2017...|

Will btc ever hit a million? Or hundred million?

I kick myself so hard every night going to sleep that I didn't get in earlier. Liek I'll literally have dreams of being in 2013 when I first heard about it and buying some... T_T
If you know bitcoin well, you will never have to think whether you are too early or too late to invest. Bitcoin will always be a profitable investment because of its appreciating value, its just that you have to take the risk and be more patient from long term hodling while waiting for the best time to sell. I suggest have a positive mindset so you can start your move now and be profitable in the future.
2407  Economy / Economics / Re: What should be a good ROI for a startup? on: April 22, 2022, 10:26:58 PM
Entrepreneurs struggle with their ROI on businesses. Starting a business is not a difficult task but sustaining it becomes challenging. I've seen a numerous companies go bankrupt after good years of sales. Knowing the reason behind is lack of future projections.

According to you, what should be the ROI for newly launched startups?

My views are around 15% per annum but it would take around 6.6 years to earn the initial amount back. Would it be a bad decision?

If you were a student of business studies, you wouldn't have asked this question. You should know that there is no fixed ROI for sustainability of a business. Sustainability of a business depends on numerous factors and future projection is just one of those factors.

Do a market research on your competitors. Use websites like Statista to gain insights. See what is the average ROI in your field of business and now see prepare a business forecast to see if you beat the average ROI.
Precisely. You can't expect a fixed ROI because the market situation too may differ in some ways. But as long as you hit the average ROI for a certain business, i guess you will see consistency in making profits. Same as you can't guarantee as to how long your business will stay competitive in the market.

What is the sign of bull market start
You will only know when the real bull market is here if bitcoin is consistently showing a good price increase and afterwards, altcoins will also be seeing in positive prices. Certainly, when there is 20% price increase in the market, that may be a good sign for a bull market. As its easy to identify a bear market when there is also a 20% price decline happening in the market.
2409  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Copy Trading - experience and tipps on: April 22, 2022, 08:33:04 PM
Hi guys,

does anybody had some success with copy trading?
Would be very interested if someone has some experience to share.

Thank you already!

Kind regards
AD
You only need to think a little bit to know this is not a good option, if you have a successful strategy that you have developed on your own will you share that with everyone for no cost at all? What if one of the persons which is copying your trades is then able to realize how are you making your money and then tells to more people making your strategy way less effective? The risks are simply too high with no benefits, so most of those that allow themselves to be copied do not really have a reliable strategy at all.
Certainly the worst case, copying some unprofitable strategies that will only bring more losses on your part. Its always better to develop your own thing, the strategy that you think will perfectly work on you. Well, there's no really wrong from copy trading, but just prepare yourself for some losses than gains as most likely, other traders are sharing it to you because they are not benefiting from it already.

Is Bitcoin the best investment at the moment?I've been trading options on BTC for about three years now, and I've made significant gains, how does everyone invest?
For me, it varies. If you are making huge profits from bitcoin today, then you will always justify that its the best investment for you. However, for some that are losing in the same kind of investment, they will never say that its definitely bitcoin. Bitcoin will always be the best investment if you are making maximum profits from it, but others chose to invest in some potential altcoins because they made the biggest profits from it compared to bitcoin, even if its only for short term profitability.
2411  Economy / Economics / Re: Inflation and investment on: April 21, 2022, 09:46:18 PM
We all know that almost the entire world is currently experiencing variable inflation, and my country is no exception. Almost all goods prices have gone up, financial stability has been disrupted and most of us have had to incur additional costs to pay our bills due to rising tariffs and taxes.

At the same time I am still thinking about investing even though I am really having a hard time achieving financial stability at the moment. If previously I could save 50% of my total income for investment then for now only 25% seems difficult. If you are also experiencing this condition, then I have a few questions to answer.

  • Will you continue to invest even if it is only 10%-20% of your total monthly income?
  • How do you achieve financial stability during this inflation?

Share some of your thoughts, I think it would be good to consider especially as long as this kind of condition persists for a long time.
The only way to increase financial stability in this time is by either increasing your income from the source that you are making or increase the number of income sources that you have, apart from that there is no 3rd way, i feel it's unfortunate to see how inflation has panned out in recent times and is clutching savings almost entirely. I feel no matter how much you crib about it eventually there is nothing you can do about it, you'll have to surrender youself against inflation and remain financially stable by increasing sources of income.
I guess inflation is here to stay so we can't do nothing about it but accept and defeat it through engaging ourselves into potential investments. Even if the capital is small, but as long as you have the knowledge and motivation to make it grow, then eventually your investment will boom once it succeeded. And when you are already making good profits from it, then the next goal is to be financially stable and you can only attain it if you use your profits to invest again into another potential investment, thus making yourself creating a multi sources of income.
2412  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Long Term Holders - When Do You Plan To Cash Out? on: April 21, 2022, 09:16:59 PM
Everybody is in a different situation. Anybody who bought pre 2017 should probably have taken some pressure off their lives by buying a house or something. Never sell all your bitcoin, hell don’t sell over 50% but it’s a good idea to sell some to make significant positive changes to make your life better.
They say long term hodling will bring you big fortune in the future, but how long will you have to keep and hold it? I guess the very reason why we started investing is to create profits so we can make significant changes in our lives. So i will always stick to it. I try to cash out every time i made a project that needs more funds and when i ran out of budget for my family. But i always see to it that there's more left for my future profits. It's good to spend some of it but make sure you spend your hard earned money not only for fun, but also for valuable purposes too.
2413  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Can newbie become rich with trading on: April 18, 2022, 09:55:08 PM
Trading look like a hard to understand game and for any new person in trading making profits is always hard that is why am here to ask how can a newbie make profit trading coins and what manual can be followed.
If you enter trading without prior knowledge and skills, literally it will always be hard. This is why one should never do trading unless he is knowledgeable and capable. Otherwise, you will end up in a mess if you insist to trade. Newbies are always bound to lose in trading, they will only start to make profits in trading once they gained the knowledge, experience and skills. And generally, no newbies will make it big in trading. But most of the legends do.
2414  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA 2022 world cup on: April 18, 2022, 09:26:25 PM
we will have at least 4-5 national teams coming as favorites for the title, such as France, England, Spain, Germany, Argentina etc.
Portugal was unconvincing in the European qualifiers and would not place them in this group of favorites for the title but they remain a dangerous team for everyone.

I'd agree that Portugal shouldn't be amongst the favourites, but are still quite dangerous.
But I'd disagree that England or Germany are likely winners. I am from England, but I think our team is consistently over-rated and is not as good as some of the others. Germany are always a threat, true, but they just don't have the strength that they used to have - they are a bit uninspiring.
Well, i respect your opinion but i think most of the FIFA audience have high hopes that England and Germany have the impressive odds that included them as the team favorites. Sometimes what we think and see may be different from others, but i guess that happens to all of us. However, i am more certain that Brazil takes the lead and is more advanced than those countries you've said. So maybe that's a plus point for Brazil.
2415  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🏆 The Emirates FA Cup - Season 2021/2022 on: April 18, 2022, 08:43:17 PM
When a team with an extraordinary coach competes, of course the gameplay presented is very charming, I am very happy to see last night's match which was won by Liverpool. I personally do not side with any of these teams, because they are currently a football team that is at the highest level in the world I think. It's not because they have star players like PSG, but it's purely because of the teamwork and application of great strategy and tactics made by Pep and Klopp. Congratulations once again to Liverpool for qualifying for the final, and it looks like the most likely opponent to face is Chelsea.
Team wins not because there are star players, a great coach, but definitely its the team themselves that share the common goal and commitment. Kudos to all the hardwork and efforts of the team. Liverpool will be competing against Chelsea in the final, and whoever will win, definitely its always the best team who will bring home the bacon.
2416  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: sports betting sites that return your money when you lose. on: April 18, 2022, 08:10:33 PM
That's not sports betting at all because terms like that in real sports betting do not exist.

When they return your money when you lose, they are like giving you free money. I'm sorry, but it sounds like a Ponzi scheme to me, and I also have some friends who market that to me but I never check the details of the site since the offer alone is too good to be true.
If the site is just giving free money, i don't think if its legit anymore. Don't be too greedy with the offer, always look for a red flag that will eventually tell you that all are just a scam. Once you gamble, there is always high probability that the house will always win, and not the players. But in this case, it seems that the players are not really in a loss, so definitely a big ponzi scheme.
2417  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which sports betting picks and prediction channel you watch? on: April 18, 2022, 09:07:25 AM
Just always be updated with the news for the match that you're about to bet. That's the easiest thing that you can do to see who are the players that are going to play and who's out.
That's very common in NBA since it's a physical game and a player's absence is a factor for them to lose. It is why before you bet, you don't actually need those prediction channels but only your time to research.
Watching and simply relying your bets to some prediction channels will not be really helpful at all, in fact it will only make you a little bit confused. Stick to your own bet by making a good research and keep updated with the latest events regarding on the match that you're supposed to bet. However, if you are not so sure on your own bet, then just put a small amount so you won't lose that much once your bet did not win.
2418  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: April 18, 2022, 08:39:34 AM
Broad and Anderson must retire as they have played enough cricket and should give chance to new talent. England team is just like Mumbai Indian they have a good captain like Root but no team. It will now take some years before England can have strong test team.

I disagree. Age should not be a factor here. If the younger bowlers like Woakes, Robinson, Overton, Mahmood and Wood have the ability to replace Broad or Anderson on merit, then I don't have a problem in dropping these two senior bowlers. But it looks as if that is not the case. The ECB doesn't have any real excuse to drop them, apart from the age factor. And trust me, if any of the younger bowlers I mentioned earlier had at least 50% of the capability of James Anderson, I would have supported the decision from the ECB.
I don't think their present ages could be a hindrance for the success of the team. As long as they are fit and still capable being fast bowlers, they should not be dropped from the team as easy as that. Looks like they follow the same route with Ashley Giles, Chris Silverwood, and Graham Thorpe from losing their jobs unreasonably. But i guess, there's nothing we can do with that. ECB director has already said his firm decision.

The bowling correction is very common with all levels of bowlers from all countries. There is nothing as the bowlers from specific countries weren't reported. Even before entering the international cricket career players were corrected for the bowling action. The latest bowler from India to have bowling correction after suspect action is Natarajan.
Natarajan corrected his action to save career
Natarajan is certainly the yorker king in India and is one of the most successful bowlers in his time. And with his humble beginnings, Natarajan becomes an inspiration for poor people which made him more focused and become more skilled in his bowling career. There are a lot of cricket players that have become exceptionally good in their performances but i think Natarajan itself will always be a legend in his bowling expertise.

Well, this is subjective and will depend on the opinion of everyone so the majority will say what's the best for them.

Have you tried playing in on bk8? If you haven't, you can take time and play with them to check it out. The two bookies that you've mentioned are also known.

But if there's someone who wants to check the other bookies, this is what's good in this community. There's a lot of choice that you can spend your time with to test almost all of them if you want to.
You should not only rely based on the ideas of other members, as simply they have their all time favorite that makes them work for them. But there are a lot of best online sportsbooks that you have to choose, and you can only tell which one will fit for you if you start exploring and making experience with them. Each sportsbook has its own great offers and bonuses, so try it with yourself and only by then, you will have an idea which works best for you.
