No need to think about the reason ngl. Most of the reasons you see on the internet are either FUD or just coincidences. The reason can be simply attributed to demand and supply of BTC. Just that the demand slightly fell behind the supply, making the market of BTC go lower than before by quite a lot. And how did demand and supply change? Again, cause of FUD. A lot of people were swept away by some of the latest news on going which led to them selling their coins in panic, creating the current scene right before us.
2442  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin go to $8000 soon look this fractal on: November 27, 2019, 04:56:06 PM
Could and could not happen. Can't really state something to happen since literally ANYTHING could happen. Based on what I think or what I've observed, a comeback is possible, but the bulls need something, a certain something to push the momentum they currently have. A reversal can currently take place, but if the bulls fail to take it, then bears would obtain the advantage once more.
2443  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [What IF] Part 7 on: November 27, 2019, 04:05:04 PM
Not gonna lie, is there any difference? I actually think it's the same either way. It's gambling, it's based on luck. Heck, kids are much more prone to getting into luckier events, so why not? I don't particularly deposit large amounts so I'd suppose it's not that dangerous for me to let a child play it. If by some off chance I manage to get the jackpot, ain't that worth it? And even if I didn't, well, nothing new there right?
2444  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Real reasons to Why do you gamble? on: November 27, 2019, 04:47:03 AM
Its fun, and compared to investing, id rather spend some on gambling instead. Call me selfish and all that but it is my money, I decide where i spend it. And besides, you cant even go to gambling to get a big score, you wait for it to come to you instead. Gambling aint about skill, its about luck.
2445  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Password changed / Woke up recently. Good signals to know potential scammers on: November 26, 2019, 04:50:07 PM
This is in the forum right? Hmmm, its a rather interesting idea to add on to other social media sites or forums. This could potentially be a warning sign for most users that the account might have been hacked, that is the idea behind it right? Question though, how do you get the Woke up thingy? And what does it exactly imply?
Still, that idea was great. Might use it when I make my own forum or something of the sort next time.
2446  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Just a little something about secure passwords. (Wallets & Online services) on: November 26, 2019, 04:20:18 PM
2FA is the way to go tbh. Yes, Strong passwords are essential but the combination of a strong password and 2FA is what brings out the most in your security. But in the end, passwords are strings of text that are essentially easy to remember by heart. Picking out 4 random words may prove to be harder for most users to even memorize. Companies, yes, must use these kinds of passwords since company information is a lot more important than anything else in their line of business.
2447  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bizarre crash! What cause bitcoin crash?? on: November 26, 2019, 03:51:14 PM
It is the number one. No altcoin comes close to BTC as a crypto. Its not really a crash anymore, BTC price has stayed at around 7k by almost a week now with no signs of comeback to 8k. The crash already happened when BTC dropped down to 6.5k but the bulls resisted and brought it back to 7.2k. Its a fight from now on whether BTC would continue to drop to 6k with Bears bringing the momentum back or bulls retaining the momentum and charging for 8k once again.
2448  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Top 5 Ways to Earn Crypto While You Sleep on: November 26, 2019, 02:56:27 PM
I suppose you could say lending is one of the top ways to earn, but it isn't the best, nor the most efficient, nor the safest way to earn crypto. It is way too risky after all. Trading,Open trading and Bot trading doesn't differ that much, they're still both tradings after all.  The staking is an interesting way to earn, but again, security and safety of the coin isn't guaranteed since you don't hold your coins and it is pretty much locked to their wallet.
2449  Economy / Economics / Re: The US & China Trade War is Nothing, Worry About Business and Bank Failures on: November 26, 2019, 02:18:08 PM
Considering an economic perspective, I suppose so. But in the end, China and US are still directly related to how Business and Bank Failures occur, with US being the most concerned one most of the time. Besides, if the US and China Trade war happened, remember that both of their economies would surely take a hit. And both of these countries are one of the biggest in the western and eastern side of the map, if not the biggest. Resolving both of their problems while trying to repair the mess ups of the banks of US should be a priority instead, not one being above the other in terms of importance
2450  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Are stable coins solving the problem of providing stability to our funds? on: November 25, 2019, 06:39:51 PM
Yes, stable coins were made so that people could quickly convert their BTC to that stable coin to avoid the loss of coins during dumps. However, I don't really think stable coins are doing their job right now. More like its used for transactions so that the fees could be neglected as much as possible, and just to hold coins sometimes, but not really at times of bitcoin crisis dumps. I'm not saying stable coins are bad, but they aren't noticed much because of the lack of opportunities it gives to users.
2451  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: New Intro to Bitcoin Video, Explained Simply and Quickly! :D on: November 25, 2019, 06:20:03 PM
You were kind of conflicting yourself? One moment you said discuss for another vid, the next, your discussing it. It's not wrong but the steps taken were the one thing that was wrong. You should've stated the beginners definition then followed up with " But we'll get more on to that on another video". Plus, since it seems like you're channel is for mostly informative purposes, no need to ask for subs and likes, or you can put them in the end of the video, not at the start. The Intro is pretty nice but rather long, reduce it by a bit more and it should work fine.
2452  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Cryptopia Exchange on: November 25, 2019, 06:06:00 PM
I still have a balance there after following the last snapshot process, at least I can still hope for a refund.
the last e-mail wrote that their hopes were very small because they were in a difficult legal process. I do not even want to linger with this hope, because their system is very weak and indeed damaged from the inside.

If they finally return, their reputation will be difficult to improve.
Don't expect a refund from the exchanges that have already shut downed. I don't really know how Cryptopia shut downed, but they should've warned clients about them shutting down, so you leaving balance inside the wallet proves to be your own fault and not theirs anymore. A refund only gets issued when it is their system is at fault after all. Plus, if they even get back, why would they refund someone instead of using that to improve their current system and advertise over forums?
2453  Economy / Speculation / Re: It's a BUY flag on: November 25, 2019, 04:40:39 PM
Well, seems like the market has agreed to the BUY flag. Earlier ago, BTC was sitting around 6.5k and after a few hours at the moment, standing at 7.2k. Just from this we could already see that a lot of people were waiting for the possible bottom line of BTC before starting to buy again, and the result was that it stood at 6.5k before making the people buy once more. The people who bought at 6.5k were quite gutsy and was the one who supported the push for BTC to 7.2k, which is right now.
2454  Economy / Economics / Re: Is IBM is on path to bring blockchain to the masses? on: November 25, 2019, 03:40:08 PM
Why only IBM? If you talk about affordability, even Google can afford expensive R&Ds! Facebook can do that as well! There are other cash rich companies in the world who can do the same! I seriously do not remember anything great from IBM related to blockchain technology in all these years! Funding is not an issue to many companies, but the willingness to become the frontrunner in blockchain tech is certainly lacking, at a great scale!
Well, IBM was a forerunner. FB just started with their Libra, and I haven't heard any news about blockchain with google since the most I've heard of them was their quantum supremacy. And honestly, at the time blockchain started sprouting, I think it didn't bring out much in terms of allure for these companies to jump ahead and provide an R&D and funds for it. IBM was the only one whom started funding R&D to it and well, even if they did, it didn't actually result to much. Only when BTC popped off did most companies/countries took note of what Blockchain technology is.
2455  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price drop but institutional investors on Bakkt are buying like crazy! on: November 23, 2019, 03:47:54 PM
This is the time to buy my friends and if you already own some bitcoins to hoard them. Do not fall for the Chinese fud that are being spread in the

mass media and on social media platforms, because it is just smoke & mirrors.  Angry

Have been already enlightened with the Chinese way of FUD. Announcement of bans have been ongoing for a long time now and yet nothing has happened as of yet. Although the timing of the news and the drop are quite scary, it is possibly in the end FUD that is coordinated by the Chinese. Plus, without BTC even reaching the lowest it could go possible, investing in BTC is still quite worthwhile and would last as long as it could possibly go for.
2456  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 30th South East Asian Games on: November 22, 2019, 05:50:17 PM
Real talk here, how can the Philippine athletes perform better if the government instead of cheering for them, the anti-admin is throwing mud to the admin because of corruption in building the stadium. Just check the local news in the Philippines and see whats the story about SEA games and you will find over priced stadium being investigated and over priced contract handed to a Malaysian firm. Very little mention about the athletes.

I am still hoping for Philippines to make it at least on the top 3 if they cant make it to number 1. Philippines will be represented with 1,868 athletes.

THIS. Bro the problem surrounding the cauldron of the stadium and comparing it to what Singapore did 4 years ago is kind of stupid. The President isn't even afraid of the law at this point, and even threatens the law itself. I'm still hoping for the PH athletes to bag top 3 at the least, it is our home court and well, I still have that little amount of hope that they could prove worthy of our trust and well, at the least, make it as a comeback for what the government has spent on this.
2457  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin: Long term prediction. on: November 22, 2019, 04:40:36 PM
Let's wait and see if it breaks away from the 6700$ support, which I honestly think it would do. And the price should probably drop more after the 3rd halving, is what I believe. Besides, most of us are assuming that BTC would spike AFTER the 3rd halving, so that's a natural prediction not gonna lie. The moment to enter is the hard thing to predict right now, with BTC spiking up and down repeatedly without much notion for the market's current interests.
2458  Economy / Economics / Re: New bill would make Facebook’s cryptocurrency a security under the law on: November 22, 2019, 03:55:23 PM
Well, facebook IS large after all. Letting them roam free with their Libra would most probably result in an overhaul because of facebooks' popularity. Plus, them being restricted by the Congress shows that they could still overpower Facebooks' reputation, making them seem more of an above person type of guy? The alpha wolf in a wolf pack. It's basically an investment by theirs that uses power as its source.
2459  Local / Pamilihan / Re: 🔥🔥Binance's Shanghai Office CLOSE! Kaya nga ba bumulusok si Bitcoin?🔥🔥 on: November 22, 2019, 02:50:37 PM
QUICK TAKE:
✅Binance’s Shanghai office shut its doors following a recent police raid, sources told The Block.
✅Many of the exchange’s executives and around “50-100 employees” worked at the office, said sources.
✅The Shanghai government recently conducted a probe of cryptocurrency-related activities, while Binance also made its ambition to return to the Chinese market clear in recent months.

One, Binance themselves said the raid didn't happen. Most of the exchanges there actually stated that no such shut downs have occured nor will they actually think of removing their exchanges from China and start migrating somewhere. I'm not particularly sure who's telling the truth and not, but it is for sure that China is doing a major crackdown on exchanges in their country. Plus, China is making its stand that it is pro towards Blockchain technology, but anti towards BTC, and made a clarification towards it.
2460  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you have control or not? on: November 22, 2019, 02:31:21 PM
It's one of the attitudes or characteristic a gambler should have. Learning when to take a loss or push for a win not only defines you as a gambler, but also you as how you play in gambling games. Learning when to read others, when to stop, when to push for a call, those are qualities that every gambler must have. Besides, over estimating yourself often leads to addiction since you don't really stop no matter what happens so, might as well learn how to control yourself, learn how to play how you want, and win while knowing when to quit.
