2441  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Shiba Inu's future on: July 21, 2022, 11:41:14 PM
According to my observations I think that this coin will grow but not really sure whether i should try to buy and hold some or try micro trading. I'm sure that there're lots of experienced traders who can give me an advice
If we take a look at Dogecoin, that might happen to Shiba Inu. I don't expect much for these meme coins, though I see it has some potential but I really don't have the guts to trust this and become my long-term asset. They are just preferred for short-term investment and a good choice during the Bull market. But if we think about it many years from now, that seems so hard to speculate it and probably we just got wrong (which in fact, it is always).
2442  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Hold your bag when you can on: July 21, 2022, 02:15:10 PM

Yeah I am proud of holding my Bitcoin right now as I am doing DCA (dollar cost averaging) every month. I am in a profit for the BTC I’ve bought for June and July. But for May, I am still at a loss because I bought it when the price was more than $30k. I just simply stored it in a hardware wallet and not in a centralized exchange or wallet.
As it was proven that those who are able to hold Bitcoin will have a great end.
And besides, even if you are a trader, you also have to know how to hold and learn for that because of the market situation. We can just buy and then sell, NO, we still need to hold for a while and wait for the perfect time to sell. But yes, we need to be careful and find a good place to keep safe of our Bitcoin, or else, instead of being happy waiting for the Bullrun, might be replaced in regret for losing them all due to a hacking incident.
2443  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The right time to invest on: July 21, 2022, 01:43:42 PM
As a newbie one finds it difficult to know the right time to invest. I really want to know if I can actually invest into Bitcoin at this moment.
Actually, it was not all about finding the right time to invest as we never can find it. What is important is that we never miss this great opportunity to buy potential coins at a low price. It will soon rise, the market went high again and we already had some ready for that moment.
Whether today is the right/perfect time to invest, or not but at least we did what is best for our future and we make an investment despite the situation as soon as we can make some profit from them.
2444  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: July 21, 2022, 12:05:58 PM
Meanwhile in Philadelphia, seems that James Harden is really inclined to have his first ring this coming season because he's really trying to bring all the assets that the team needs to enhance their chances this time.
He said in a statement that he's not the same James Harden anymore, he's completely new and different. There's something with those words and he's really gonna be focusing on taking this season's ring. No offense to him as he's an MVP before but other teams are also strong and have the same goal as him.
Just as they say, "may the best team win".

Yes, the teams in the NBA now are quite packed with talented young athletes which will be also the next face in the NBA in the few years to come when LBJ and other players of the same age will start retiring.

James Harden still has a chance because he's still approaching his mid-30s and he got more edge than the younger teams because he got more experience. He should also improve his performance this coming season and bring into action what he said so that Embiid and Maxey's talent won't be in vain.

If he will not choke he has a chance. Look at their performance against the Heat, 2 MVPs playing on the same team but they cannot beat the Heat. They won't go anywhere if they will not improve their line up, and if Harden will not average close to his average when he was still with the Rockets.

That's the problem with Harden, he is not a clutch player like Curry who gets better when the team needs a win. Harden now is in a better team, he does not have to carry his team alone as there's Embiid who can also do that, all they have to do is just to help each other and build a good chemistry among their teammates.

We have Phoniex vs Ginebra today.

I believe Wright is not available, so do you think that Phoenix will have a chance of winning this game, or at least cover the handicap?
This game will start soon, so guys, good luck!

I will go with ROS 8.5 @1.87


Bad bet, looks like ROS is not into the game, they lost by a huge margin to the Magnolia Hotshots.

118-87, Magnolia well covered the spread here.
Congrats to those who pick the heavy favorite, it was -7.5 I believe.

It was a team effort, seeing the boxscore, you can see there's plenty of players that tallied a double digit contribution.

another 10 years, or 50 years, are certainly possible as long as people value this project and the blockchain technology. Perhaps, huge investors have a long-term vision of the market and are too positive about it, the reason why they are willing to risk huge amounts. In fact, we have seen the market continue to grow and with the help of crypto adoption and bringing Bitcoin to legality helps to develop trust and able to maintain higher demand which we could really think that will exist for many years.
2448  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Canelo vs Golovkin 3 (September 17) on: July 20, 2022, 11:58:27 AM

So win or lose, I doubt that GGG will be force somewhat to fight his mandatory or whatever they call it to have one champion. The focus for him right now is Canelo and that's what he is going to concentrate whatever WBA orders him, it doesn't matter for now.

It's a rivalry that he is really eager to win. There's nothing else that is important for him aside from taking down

Canelo and prove that he really deserves the win, a personal matter he is not after to whoever
the organization is requiring him.

It's a must fight for GGG and since both camps are ready now and they are really hyping these upcoming trilogy.

It's already hype, both will enjoy a decent payday in this fight as PPV will surely hit a decent number. People are anticipating for this fight, and now that it's already announce, they will surely pay for the PPV and some would go to the arena to witness it in person.
2449  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why are people still buying XRP? on: July 20, 2022, 11:35:45 AM
Over the years, there are always issue with Ripple (XRP). For me, these recent pumps and dumps on XRP are caused by manipulation.
I don't trust Ripple, especially with the issue they had with some lawsuits.
For me, people who are buying Ripple are most newbies or people who are lured by the hypes especially some influencers who are just being paid to advertise.
Maybe it does but with those issues with the SEC, I don't think this could have an end.
Though I don't invest Ripple fortunately, I'd use this for my withdrawal transaction because of its low fees. This it bought into my mind that even a lot of people hated this project but can't deny somehow that it also had some role in the market which is traders are still using this despite the said issue.

This is not typical coin for invest honestly but somehow good in another area.
2450  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are you bothered about what happens to your Bitcoin when you are no more? on: July 19, 2022, 11:18:20 PM
"Just enjoy your wealth and your life while you are still alive" so the time has come (surprise) that you are not able to do things anymore, but you don't have any regrets. This is what I did.

 We can't just get crazy about money, about Bitcoin, in fact, we can share them with our families who we left. That is why we don't need to keep it alone, make sure that there is someone who knows about our Bitcoin address and access so they can still make use of it if there is something happen to us.
2451  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to know a good bounty on: July 19, 2022, 10:31:54 PM
However bounty managers still can play a small role and be a guarantee of distribution or success. Managers than escrow rewards have a bit higher success rate, yet escrow is not a real solution, as projects are ready to send reward to bounty manager, but often dont send him funds for distribution.
That is perhaps what they are doing and they report projects that are likely to scam (any members can do as well). Their participation is very important knowing that they know more about the developer before deciding to run and manage the campaign.

Quote
I would suggest not expect much from bounty participation. Consider it as getting a food sample in shop before buying a product. You can try, but you cant beat hunger with food samples. Participate, but dont expect a tiny reward.
Bounty is likely a dying market promotion, only a few people and most newbies are participating in this which is not really effective.
Just like the other said that participating bounties are just a waste of time and you have no assurance of getting rewards after. Of if there is but unfortunately, it just got stuck on your wallet because it can't be traded.
2452  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Teofimo Lopez vs Pedro Campa - Aug 13 on: July 19, 2022, 12:18:33 PM
So Teo Lopez is back, after the humiliating lost against George Kambosos, he is making his comeback, but this time he has move up in weight. He will be fighting a dangerous and experience boxer in Campa next month.
Teofimo lost that fight because he was fighting like crazy, but the Teofimo who fought with Loma and previous rivals, would have clearly beaten Kambosos. Another reason was his health challenge. According to reports, he had air around his heart that made it difficult for him to breathe properly. The doctors confirmed it. López will make history again in the 140. Canpa doesn't even stand a chance.

Good thing we will see him soon taking another challenge to prove himself once again because when boxers suffer some serious injuries, they sideline and they will not be the same as they were before especially when it comes to dominating their opponents. Let's just hope he really will dominate Campa in the early rounds until he knocks him out because taking the fight to the last round will be risky for him since he is just getting back to fight after he hid first lost.

It's nice if he will win via KO so promoters will be interested in getting him a big fight. Just like what Ryan Garcia did, he knockout his opponent so I'm pretty sure that promoters now are happy on giving him the fight he was asking, and that is against Davis.
I have no doubt about that, Lopez is a rising superstar and he is still young, so I expect him to be aggressive like he always does. Campa is a huge underdog for a reason, so I wouldn't be surprise if Lopez will have a very impressive win since he is in a new division where he believe he would fit very well.

Who do we got here?

Philipines has a very tempting odds with 6.81, what do you think, should we go with the ML or the handicap.

Here's the spread

Philippines +13.5
Japan -13.5

over/under 170.5

2454  Economy / Economics / Re: Fashion Brands uses Blockchain Technology on: July 18, 2022, 11:06:35 PM
It is just about to say that blockchain technology doesn't just evolve in the cryptocurrency alone but it is somehow valuable and helpful in other areas as even shipping companies are already adapting to this.

With this integration, we come to think that it takes time for people to understand how it works and the time has come it was then appreciated and it works great. Fashion industry is huge which means that this could give a huge impact on blockchain and even encourgae others to try using this application.
2455  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ETH is leading the market to a monthly high... on: July 18, 2022, 10:43:39 PM
ETH is leading the market to a monthly high, while BTC dominance has dropped to its lowest level in two months.
Well, I don't worry about that as I know that Bitcoin will just be about to rise soon after this dip. I've got some patience and willingness to wait for that moment as for sure this can't be forever.
Quote
As the ETH merge was confirmed by developers for September of this year, the price of ETH increased by nearly 13% (to around 1360$). BTC increased by more than 3%. As a result, Bitcoin's dominance has plummeted to its lowest level in more than two months. We should wait and see how the merger affects the market in the future.


Well, everyone is just hoping for the best in the market whether it was for Ethereum or Bitcoin as people are investing in them. However, I don't expect a huge increase for as long as the bear dominates the market, that seems impossible to see big rallies in prices unless we are into Bullrun. In fact, expecting 3% increase is very small and even can't feel it as after that drop may follow.
2456  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Kazuto Ioka vs Donnie Nietes II on: July 18, 2022, 08:44:45 AM
As a boxer gets older, their body depreciates as well, and it was very evident in his last fight.

That's why Manny Pacquiao retired when he got beaten by Ugas. he was the heavy favorite in the fight and yet we didn't see the old Pacman, so after the fight, he realized that his time is over and has to retire for good. We have no Filipino champion now I guess, so it's not good for the boxing community as we don't have a boxers that we will follow.
2457  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: July 18, 2022, 08:25:10 AM

One example is Ray Parks, IIRC, his reason for leaving the TNT is because he wants to take care of his sick mother, but look where he is now, he is already playing with the B League.

He was caught lying because of the picture circulating that he was in the Philippines at that time. He left TNT, not in good faith, so probably he will not be able to come back in the PBA again, he needs to play well so his contract in a team that he is playing with in B League will last longer.

And look at him now, representing our country playing with the head coach of TNT, h's part of our national and I don't know if the issue with him and the TNT is already resolve and I'm also not sure but maybe chot is not the coach when he left but the influence of chot even he's not the one who's taking care of the team is always high.

Maybe just "maybe", the interest of playing inside PBA is still there for Parks Jr, who knows SMB will offer him something that decent enough to make him comeback, remember he's also with the SMB he lead the SMB Alab pilipinas at ABL.

Yes, I think SMB is the right team for him, TNT already has Mikey Williams, so SMB is the team to play for him. His consistency is always present because Ray Parks are both good offensively and defensively. Also, his experience playing in B League could help him improve in the PBA.
2458  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The number of hodlers on: July 17, 2022, 11:42:27 PM

those are crypto users who have strong belief that bitcoin has good future. most of them i believe, have seen the countless up and down movements of btc throughout the years. so for them, this period is one of the good opportunities to accumulate more before it goes up again. this is the good thing in this market, we all have our freedom how to put our game plan in order to improve out portfolio.
It is vital for us to learn to ignore these dumps and consider holding and buying more. Real investors won't just look at the daily market changes as it is really a big factor that could their minds but what they do is focus on the long-term possible reach of the market believing that it grow further. In fact, as we can see institutional investors and whales are still accumulating more potential coins as they are sure about the future of the market.

We are in fact so thankful that many people had learned to hold despite the situation as this even help not to worsen the market drop.
2459  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Am I doing the right thing on: July 15, 2022, 09:48:50 PM
How can a newbie invest in good altcoins? I know about BTC and ETH but I think I can make more money from altcoins instead of BTC and ETH, I did my research and I have a few projects in mind but I don't know if they are worthy..

Avalanche, Mina protocol, Phala network and Aleph Zero to name a few
Good altcoins or potential altcoins will give you market fulfillment and huge profit if you learn how to hold and are able to wait the right time to sell. Some got wrong in the time of buying and selling which sometimes cause them losses.

But what I understand OP is you want easy money and instant profit which is likely impossible in this bearish time. Even if you are going to choose new projects, doubted if you can still make it.
2460  Economy / Economics / Re: How Will Investing Help the Economy of a Country on: July 15, 2022, 09:01:29 PM
It indeed helping us personally but not it has a huge impact to the country. As people are investing and have sources of income we can say that the country is healthy, their economic system is good.

But I suggest that people shouldn't just rely upon on crypto investment, if we could have a stable job is much better or to run business. Having a passive income is much needed and most of all, this could help the economy of the country by paying taxes.
