2421  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Scam Coin On PANCAKESWAP on: August 14, 2021, 08:35:15 PM

Are there any scam coins on this site? Did anybody face any scam coins there before?
This was not new to the market, scam projects are spread around and they are targeting more on the new exchanges.
Yeah, I admit that I'm holding some scam coins but I manage to sell them to not known exchanges like I even converted it using swap exchange. But honestly, these coins could sometimes give you a huge profit if we are lucky, yeah, and I did some. I'd never hesitated to sell them once I've seen that they already listed to any exchanges, I certainly don't lose any opportunity as this shit/scam coins can be totally dead soon.
2422  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Does matic (polygon) worth to invest? on: August 14, 2021, 08:07:57 PM
Though I trust in dogecoin, I will confidently invest in Matic man. I have been seeing its growth since it came in. I have invested in it already, still i would add up more if i have enough budget. The team is really awesome and yes man its network is really welcomed by all here. The work behind its growth is really seen through its progress in its value. Matic is going reach it height very soon. It must reach minum $5 if BTC reaches $80k to $90k. One of the best coin to invest in.
Investing sometimes comes from trust, not literally coming from its prices. I look forward that this project will grow as well but for now, it wasn't my very choice as I already spend on the other project. The Matic project gives some hope for their investors and how these developers work on this project it is seemingly they can drive Matic to have fortune. That of course, it takes time to bring their at the highest, maybe it is the hypes could help and much more if someone could shill it like Doge.
2423  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence Jr - August 21 on: August 14, 2021, 06:35:52 PM
This is understandable. Spence is a young undefeated boxer and a clear contender to dominate over the years. Yordenis Ugas is a slightly younger boxer than Pacquiao with an impressive record of defeats and does not claim to be a milestone in boxing history. It is possible that the upcoming fight will be easy for Pacquiao, I think if it happens this way, everyone will be disappointed.

I'm watching his fight against Shawn Porter where he lost via SD, I think he is just too slow compared to Pacquiao and I can see an easy win by Pacquiao if he will just always be careful. This is the video of the full fight, courtesy of Premier Boxing Champions (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAwDc3BgZpk)

Yes, I saw this fight, Ugas was experiencing big problems throughout the fight due to the fact that he lagged behind in speed. By the way, I still don't understand why one of the judges gave the victory to Ugas - Porter was in the lead in shots and, therefore, points in almost every round.
It turns out that Ugas has only one hope - a knockout victory; in terms of points, he is unlikely to be able to defeat the faster Pacquiao.

Ugas does not have the speed and probably the power to defeat Pacquiao, he is just like a counter puncher but with the style of boxing of Pacquiao which is in and out, we might probably see a scenario like Pacquiao vs Clottey here whom Pacquiao's opponent is just fighting to survive, not to win.

Bring Lance Stephenson back to NBA! Cool
That would be fun hehe. I would like to see him in a Bucks or Nets uniform.

I like him to wear a Nets uniform, he is good at guarding Lebron James, though they were teammates before I think he can still do the job and be a good defender, the Nets probably need some players who have some swag to spice up the team. Also, this might be his chance to win a championship before he retires or leaves NBA.

Learn the ropes first, you come off like someone who's into crypto for a quick money and trading isn't the right place to get that money if that's really your intention. First you said that you're a newbie into crypto and then you suddenly want to trade? That's disrespectful to the long time traders because you think that trading's easy and to yourself, you will suffer losses all the time.
I don't think that was respectful mate. It was just his desire to trade and also wanted to learn trading that is why he is asking some guidance from us. I don't find anything wrong with such a thing unless he got so confident with himself despite that he was a newbie only.

Quote
Learn stuff first and accumulate knowledge and accumulate experience, there are demo trading sites that you can use to practice trading.
It was a must especially for the beginners and OP has no escaped from this if he wanted to survive from trading, otherwise, it ends up him so easily.
And aside from having all this stuff, having a mentor like a friend of yours could eventually give a huge help.
2426  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Altcoin - bull run? on: August 14, 2021, 03:17:39 PM
Either we call it a Bullrun or not, I'm really happy with the situation.
Well, I don't just look on the altcoins coins alone but taking some sight on Bitcoin will clearly give us some understanding that these altcoins have their surge as Bitcoin moves also high. They are following the same path, it was really amazing but to ask a question how long could this surge will stop?

Although we saw such an impressive pump these days, we can't have to ignore the chance of its dumps. No, we should be still preparing for that instances as that surely will come surprisingly.
2427  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Taxes on gambling send the right message? on: August 13, 2021, 08:46:01 PM
If you keep the tax on gambling low, more people will properly declare it and pay the tax. There are countries where you have to pay really ridiculously high taxes. And there is virtually no supervision of such practices. So completely pointless. maybe some countries not even charge any money at all as tax.

This depends actually on how the government enforce its taxing power.

Regardless if the tax is high or not, the government can properly monitor on which establishments pay their taxes regularly. The reason on why the government increases the tax is in order to increase their government expenditure. Since taxes are what provide the government the fund to create projects, having a high tax can simply fund their expenditures that will benefit the general public.

Like what I previously mentioned, the power to tax has this implied power of destroying the establishment. It convinces some business owners to close down their businesses due to the high amount of taxes they pay.

But isn't it the right way to do to force the business to close? Why not just ban the business directly so it would send a direct message that the government does not allow gambling operators to do their business anymore, I guess it's a coward way of sending message to gambling operators.
2428  Economy / Economics / Re: If you can get paid through cryptocurrency, do you still choose fiat currency? on: August 13, 2021, 05:01:29 PM
it was already more than 10 years that been receiving fiat money for my salary, and maybe it was time to get paid with crypto instead of fiat but it was all just a dream as it was impossible for now since this was not already introduced to our government concerning with that system. Until there is no support from the employers and the government, this couldn't come into reality. Maybe this could work several years from now but I'm not sure if I'm still working or already passed away.
2429  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: 90% chances if a coin is listed in Binance it has a good potential on: August 13, 2021, 02:29:56 PM
I'm just thinking, what if we will just invest blindly in the new coins that are listed in Binance, in that matter, we will be able to get them at the cheapest price, we just have to trust Binance to do the research and just take the opportunity to be one of the early investors.

What do you think about this strategy? Is it foolish, or it could be effective?
2430  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you still have thoughts of picking Gold over Bitcoin, read this. on: August 12, 2021, 10:09:41 PM
The thought of investing in gold before getting to know Bitcoin, I believe many people out there also invest in gold because they don't know Bitcoin or don't understand and know how the benefits will be if investing in Bitcoin. if there are still people who still choose to invest in gold, those are people who don't want to take risks in their investments of course as you said, the higher the risk, the greater the opportunity for profit, meaning if there are still people who don't want to take risks, it means they don't want to lose their assets even if no profit is made.
There are still many out there who don't want to take any risks...

It's true that investing in bitcoin is full of risks, but the profit that can be obtained is very much in accordance with the amount of risk that may be obtained. those who only believe in gold and don't choose bitcoin are definitely not people who dare to take risks.
I understand the capabilities and market understanding will serve as the hindrance of having an interest in Bitcoin investment. I don't blame them if not investing in Bitcoin as they have the choice of what they will prioritize and sad to say that poor people are less fortunate. If we all just have the capacity to invest, I think that the 21mil Bitcoin market supply has already been reached or the value of Bitcoin is higher than its current price.
2431  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What are some long term projects for holding? on: August 12, 2021, 09:19:49 PM
Choosing projects to invest in long-term was not a hard thing to do if you have the knowledge in the market. You don't need to dig deeper and even spend the whole day searching as the top leading coins in CMC are the best coins to invest in. I know they can't give you the 100% assurance profit as it will also depend on you but what it needs is to give some trust to them.

Well, I hope that OP gets some idea. But first, you need to familiarize yourself and study the market so well.
2432  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: not paying? You should unlearn then relearn on: August 11, 2021, 11:41:34 PM
Or better yet,  don't rely on one method of trading, if method is nit given you profit or making you lose money instead of gaining,  it is better to discard that method and find something new, there are many trading tips on Youtube to learn from until you find what works for you, you can even combine and see how it plays out, some people have put years in practicing trading before they become good at it, for anyone to be successful in trading, they must put a lot of effort.
This is only true for those that have great skills when it comes to trading, after all the majority of traders out there do not even have one winning strategy so it is too much to ask for them to develop several and be incredibly flexible in the way they trade.

However an interesting thing I noticed is that once you develop a successful strategy then you are going to be able to develop several of them and then you can decide to use not only the one that gives you the most profits but also the one that fits you as a trader the best.
it really needs to changes as we are adopting the market trend. Having multiple strategies could help it as possible that some strategies might not work or it is not applicable. Thus, if we keep on learning that enhances our knowledge and skill, and as a result of this, it gives positive outcomes.

As a trader, we need to be flexible and we never have to be contented of what we have learned today. As we are aiming to become better and successful, then that will be going to do ourselves.
2433  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading bot vs. you -> who's better? on: August 11, 2021, 11:03:58 PM
Personally, I see bots as useful to me. Because not every time I will be active on markets to trade and earn a profit, but using a bot it will be easy for me not to miss much. Profit from a bot depends on the capital, I will just set a selling point that is not less than 5% if my capital is more than $1000 [just an example]. But I will also set a selling point to also avoid huge losses because we are aware that crypto markets are very volatile. So that's it, a trading bot is useful to me because it helps me to trade when I'm busy! But I am better than it.
That will be some advantage of having a bot and it can runs 24/7 which is much helpful to all who have only limited time to spend in trading.

But to ask which is one better? Knowing that it was you who send the command, then it was clear that YOU are better. Whatever the results from your trades the bot can neither to blame but it was you alone. The bot is just performing what we have said so literally, it acted as what the bot receives.
2434  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Taxes on gambling send the right message? on: August 11, 2021, 12:27:57 PM
This proves that government never care about the people, they only care about how much revenue they make for example smoking is injurious to health but government decided to restrict people from doing it so they increase tax so that no one is going to buy it but surprisingly the cigarette is the world's top selling products in numbers as per the stats so they keep on increasing tax while saying that you should avoid using it.

Smoking, drinking.etc are personal choice and if you are living in a democratic country then there is not much the government can do about it. They can increase the taxes (not to receive more revenue, but to discourage people from indulging in these habits), but that is it. And I disagree with your argument. If profit making was the only concern here, then the government could have legalized cocaine, magic mushrooms, methamphetamine, heroin and fentanyl. That would provide them manytimes the profit that they are receiving now.
If they legalize other products then consumption of alcohol and cigarettes will be down so those companies will be in loss that is why they influence government to ban others and keep cigarettes as legal products, it may look like a conspiracy but thats what I feel about increase taxes.
Cigars and liquor maybe harmful to our body, but with control, it will not lead to a big problem, while illegal drugs is does really have a bad effect as we all know what people would do if he is under the influence of illegal drugs, they are not in a clear state of mind if they are taking illegal drugs but people who drink alcohol and take cigars, they can think normally.
2435  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Why shiba inu not come 1$ on: August 10, 2021, 11:40:37 PM
Yes total circulating supply really matters the most. Token price really depends on the number of the investors and it's circulating supply, because even if the token has a lot of investors or demand and the total supply is big then still the price will not going to rise at all because of the big supply.
Yes.
Shiba inu got too many supply and it is a problem that most investors sees on it. That won't change and it should be understandable why it won't hit $1.
Burning some of their total supply could help but this will not be enough to push the price to move high, it was totally it came from the support of the community but sadly, it was not what I'm seeing right now. I mean, many investors aren't seeing the value of this project that is why they just skip and ignore it. It is somewhat they are looking at those projects that haven't just to pump because of the shilling, they are looking at those projects that have market profitability.
2436  Economy / Speculation / Re: It's not the end, $60k again on: August 10, 2021, 11:18:13 PM
It's never the end. Bitcoin price dumped to $30k. And many people were expecting the price to go down to even lower levels.
I'm guilty of this thinking and I was wrong...

Quote
But it didn't happen and it has started to recover lately. It reached $46k today. And it is closing in to $60k again gradually. So, we shouldn't keep our hopes down. It's just time we need.
That means the market is truly unpredictable. We are currently at $45k, still far from $60k and we still have 4 months to go before we end this year that seems not impossible if people don't just give up when hearing any FUDs as this will affect the momentum. I just hold my Bitcoin for now and wait for the best price to sell.

2437  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence Jr - August 21 on: August 10, 2021, 12:42:03 PM
Anyone here already pull the trigger on Manny? hehehehe



I don't think it will get any higher than the current odds though, so I decided to put my bet on him and just wait for the actual fight. Goodluck to those early bettors though, ML is really very attractive, so it's better to bet early.

I have not pulled the trigger yet, but I think there's no more reason to wait for the better odds as most likely the odds will only drop as the fight is approaching. I will probably pull the trigger once I have the money I need to put on this bet as this does not happen all the time, I make sure I put a bigger bet.
2438  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why Elon Interested in Dogecoin? on: August 10, 2021, 12:16:29 PM
The main reason why he is interested in dogecoin is that he can use it as a tool of manipulation the market and use it as speculation instrument. He can’t raise Bitcoin or Ethereum by 100 times using just his twitter, nevertheless he can do it with shitcoin, so he uses this strategy to make money. Some people will object that he is too rich to do so, but can money be superfluous?

He already made a lot of money shilling DOGE, the money he made, he can use it for his business or invest it in bitcoin, so whatever happen to bitcoin, he will not lose anything as his investment is coming from the profit of shilling DOGE, it's an easy money for him, and that's how smart he is.
2439  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will bitcoin go down below $20,000. on: August 09, 2021, 11:36:27 PM
Everything can be, I will not be surprised at anything, because bitcoin fell to $ 3,500 in 2018, everyone said scams , and now it costs almost 45 thousand, so you can expect everything from bitcoin, both ups and sharp falls.
Well, it doesn't matter if that anything is possible or not but what I'm seeing now is what happens last 2018 is impossible to happen again. Do some people say history repeats itself? Well, they have an opinion base on their experience but if we analyze the market now, that it looks like the chances are very slim. Look, the price is still high a few months after the ATH and if we compared last 2017, drops had come fast and it reaches straight to the bottom unlike what we have seen this time.
2440  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence Jr - August 21 on: August 08, 2021, 10:57:57 AM
Yes, but for now, Pacquiao and his team shouldn't bother themselves with that lawsuit. They need to focus on this big fight on the table, just a week from now, everything should be perfect, training should be unwinding by now as he don't want to overtrain himself and then followed by a strict nutritional diet to make the weight in the weigh-in Saturday.

All that's bothering Pacquiao have stopped the lawsuits the political squabbling, so much at stake here for Pacquiao, if he wins it will have a huge impact on his political ambition, this could well be his last fight as he is not getting younger and he has other goals outside of boxing, I'm hoping he'll win this fight and not get hurt, there's still so much left for Pacquiao in other fields where his country can benefit, whatever the outcome Pacquiao is a rare breed in boxing.
Speaking of Pacquiao to be a rare breed in boxing, it something  every boxing fans understand and that's the reason why Logan said hes happy that he choose Mayweather not Pacman.
With his unique breed in boxing I don't see this fight to be his last and I watch a video of his sparring outdoor in front If his fans it shows he's still pretty good and in shape.

Yeah he is still in good shape, but I read that there are haters saying that his abs is not as visible, Lol. That's their latest argument against him that he has really age and that he did take PEDS years ago.

But I'm one of those that believed Manny is clean and didn't use enhancement performance drug during his prime. It's natural talent and as you have said, just rare breed that we will only witness once in our lifetime. And he continue to amaze us with his fights with the young talents that we have right now.

I will fully agree with that as even before he got popular, he was already a heavy hitter and he has a lot of good fights. Manny is really gifted, no science could explain that, that's why even he is already 42 now, he still look young and sharp.
