Nets and Sixers game is starting in a little while on ESPN. Should be a good one to watch. I believe Harden is still out with an injury and Aldridge has a cold last time I checked, but it should be a good game nonetheless. If the Sixers can’t beat an injured Nets team now while they’re still working players into the lineup, I don’t think they have much of a chance come playoff time.

A good match up to watch for the day. There might be a spark with this game after Ben Simmons dropped some statements against the Brooklyn Nets awful defense a couple of days ago.
Let's see what the Sixers got in their tank now.
Harden ain't playing and Kyrie is questionable.
While the Sixers have their roster fully healthy. Betting line for Sixers is 6.5 to cover. Not too risky bet especially when Kyrie won't be playing today.



It's actually -8.5 for the sixers and the moneyline is 4.37 for the Nets. That's some great line here if you guys ever bet on the Sixers to win straight up. However, I doubt they'll win tonight, Sixers are motivated and they will compete with the Nets to still get the number 1 spot in the East.

Not a thing that we need to argue, we know Bitcoin is growing now, the adoptions still working, and the trust has been there already. These are the basis why I'd never think that Bitcoin will collapse and back to scratch where it started. I see nothing like that but instead of seeing Bitcoin keep rolling and stronger.

I know we are not 100% sure about its future but there is another reason. But I'd rather not think about it as we are all enjoying the moment, we don't see huge problems with Bitcoin and there is no reason why we should think about this.
2443  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: now is the right time to buy XRP on: April 13, 2021, 10:27:44 PM
of the top 5 cryptocurrency on coinmarketcap, then we will see that only the price of XRP has not risen very high and reached the new ATH price, because ATH price of XRP is $3.84 on Jan 04, 2018 (3 years ago), so I am sure if now is the right time to buy XRP, because I think the price of XRP will increase very high and create a new ATH price (such as BTC, ETH and BNB), then of course you will get a big profit from investing in XRP at this time.
Why not we don't buy this coin during the time when it was in the dip? That supposedly the best time if we are sure that XRP will have this surge and price rally after the SEC issue. But the doubts of the people remain, XRP still in question and there is a big risk when investing this coin until such a time that they are clear from their problem. That is why even XRP shows such a trend, still not to wonder why traders and investors seem still ignoring XRP because they don't find confidence in the situation that they are facing till now.  
2444  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Destroying Bitcoin on: April 11, 2021, 02:24:10 PM
The big companies are buying bitcoin and manipulating the market. one day they will start to sell all bitcoins and we will have a very big shock. imagine that you think that crypto is your enemy, if you want to destroy it, first you will buy as much as you can, you will make the market goes up, after you will sell all coins and you will destroy the market, take money of small investors and make them hate the crypto.

when i saw a company buy big amount of coin, i afraid.

I don't think there's anything to be afraid of when institutions have paid more attention to Bitcoin and the crypto market. The only negative thing about these events, in my opinion, is that ordinary investors will be able to afford less and less market shares. As the great interest of the institutions raises the price, and only they have huge capital with which to buy a large number of coins, ordinary traders with small capital will be able to buy smaller and smaller shares.
Maybe it was, but why not choose altcoins instead?
But as what OP speculates, that really be impossible. We could really feel the market manipulation but no one will think about destroying Bitcoin just for their silly ideas. I mean, no one could dare to do that like it for sure that these whales/investors are also milking crypto. Actually, they can easily make money here and that is why they will keep this alive.
2445  Economy / Economics / Re: Investing only for the rich? Think again on: April 09, 2021, 08:54:38 PM
Yeah, money will be in huge consideration when it comes to investment. Investing in crypto is just spending your spare money for possible no returns and you will never be worried of that will be gone which poor people can't afford to do that, they'll be likely are those people who want easy money, instant profit.
That is why rich people will be richer while poor people will getting poorer. Maybe it was a mistake but that is what we usually see in real-life because money is a big factor in everyone's improvement.
2446  Economy / Speculation / Re: Next big news? on: April 09, 2021, 02:24:28 PM
Bitcoin prices have been hovering below $60k for quite a while now and for it to cross the 60k+ BTC need a high profile buying and good news that will trigger heavy purchase from the general public,  I guess the next big news apart from PayPal which have already helped bitcoin to rise to 2 trillion in market capitalization is highly needed to help push the price upward.
It is really hard to keep that price $60k. Some traders are also watching the trend and sell immediately when the price shoots up, so it drops again.
Only we need to give some hope that there is new and big companies will promote Bitcoin. Miners are showing some help to encourage traders to hold but we can't stop these weak hands to prematurely sell their Bitcoins, (and for some reasons).

But, I was already satisfied with what the market had shown to us now. $50k+ is really good and that enough to send a message those people who think Bitcoin is nothing and worthless are wrong.
2447  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which coins are good for investing? on: April 09, 2021, 01:35:31 PM
Hello all,
If one wants to invest a small amount of money in the cryptocurrency, then which coins are good? I mean is something about $500. Are Tron, EOS, Ripple and Stellar good?
I have another question: Can Ripple win the court? When is the next Ripple court?

Any idea welcomed.

Thank you so much.
Try to do more research and make another choice.
Well, that is your preferred coins but I would like you to have some more digging as it for sure you can find more potentials coins in the market with high liquidity and market volume.

You might consider the top 20 altcoins in the market, I know that those coins mentioned above are also in the rally these days but could be different when you are putting your money into valuable coins.
2448  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Recovering losses on: April 09, 2021, 01:18:41 PM
It is very difficult to recover, in 2019 I put a position in LONG, the price was around 4000usd and then the result was devastating, it was when Bitcoin fell to almost 2000usd, it was not pleasant because it jumped the stop loss many times, I tried to recover later but it was impossible for me, what I did was leave in hodl and it was the best decision, but trying to recover what I did was lose more. I really don't recommend it, it's best to wait, Hodl.
If we don't plan to trade more or monitor other altcoins then do no hold altcoins too long, but when it comes in BTC buying BTC and holding it will never go wrong since the price still have more chance to increase in the future, only few were able to invest and adoption isn't that wide yet, soon more institutional companies will invest in crypto. So take this opportunity.
Actually, holding is somewhat optional. It likely had no sense if we hold crypto when it is was being dead already for many years, that only a waste of time. This gives us a realization that holding could not give us a huge benefit but sometimes it losses our opportunity. If we could recall how the last 2018 market struggles where people are so much in hopes that altcoins will continue to rally and most of the investors are in a hold but that surprises everyone when bearish had to start and never have the chance to sell at high.
2449  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum to 100k? on: April 09, 2021, 10:39:15 AM
That's already a long time frame so I believe that it isn't impossible for Ethereum to reach $100k but it still has a lot to go through just like Bitcoin. One of the common struggles of users with it is its high gas fee so if they would make more improvements and developments in the future, I'm sure that more adoptions would still happen.

Bitcoin has to reach $100k first before bitcoin will reach that price, obviously if people are following, they'll know that bitcoin is the one initiating any pump so altcoins will follow, therefore we have to wait until bitcoin break that price, but even if bitcoin will reach $100k, ETH will also not reach that price easily.

Compare btc to ETH now.

BTC is $58k, while ETH is $2k.. so ETH is only 3.44% of bitcoin price, they'll never be equal or even close to each other.
2450  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ETH and BSC on: April 09, 2021, 09:45:04 AM
One of the reasons why binance smart chain becomes this big right now is because ethereum gas fee is very high and this force some projects to switch to BSC but what do you think will happen once ethereum gas fee goes lower in near few months? Will BSC faced same fate as binance DEX? Or BSC will remain the better option over ethereum?

That's right, BSC is pumping because investors are shifting to BSC from ETH platform, soon if BNB will reach $1,000, I'm sure ETH team will panic, so they should deliver the ETH 2.0 and make the transaction cheaper, I like this way as the competition is getting better and it will make the entire ecosystem to improve more.
2451  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: April 09, 2021, 09:05:29 AM
Bubble is different from the current season of the NBA, it will never happen again, and this season, I did not see the Heat will advance in the NBA Finals. Honestly, I believe that they have not improve their line up but Nets and other teams have already improve.

Sorry for Heat fans, I'm also a fan before but trying to be honest with my opinion on their real chance this season.
That chance got lower.
Victor Oladipo right knee is hurt again. There's no update yet with their medical team but it was the same knee that made him miss a the 2019-2020 season.
They are still at number 6, all they is need is maintain that rank.
Coach Spoelstra is making changes and it can be seen in minutes per game. More for Herro less for Dragic.
Dragic is not helping much anymore, 0/4 at 3point and 5 turnovers which is the highest in the team.
Give the kid more experience and he will make buckets.  Grin

That's bad news for Miami, but in any case, they have been a solid team without Oladipo though, as long as the core is healthy like Bam and Butler. Dragic was contributing more in the playoffs, maybe coach Spo is just giving Herro his time and exposure to gain experience. But I do agree that somewhat Dragic game has fallen sharply. Maybe something is bothering him.

And if ever Herro gain that experience, it's hard to stop this kind once his outside shooting clicks. He just need to learn not to commit useless fouls though, as I have observed that he is making a lot. Specially fouling someone going into the basket and giving 2 free throws.

That's very frustrating in his part, he just came back from long recovery period because of injury, and now here it is again. Did anyone know how serious the injury is, will it made him missed another season again or will he come back soon?
2452  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Cotto vs Marquez - Exhibition match on: April 09, 2021, 04:44:14 AM


What I meant is that we as boxing fans we're robbed of this fight, they should have face each other during their prime days. And I don't know what they didn't, I'm just speculating that Cotto is a pure and natural Welterweight, while Marquez just focus on Pacquiao at the end of his career.

So now we are going to see them at least, not in their primes, but there could be some tinkering as to what's going to play out when they have fought before.


It could have been an exciting fights, if these two fighters meet in their prime, I don't know if we are going to see the styles that makes them the best fighters of their generation, Cotto has a slight advantage but this is Manuel Marquez, even in his last fight he did not show slowdown or aging, we will see a very exciting match here, even though it's an exhibition match.
if they have Meet in their Prime ? surely Marquez will Break Cotto's Bones because of His style.

and those advantage are>>>>

>> Stamina

>> Power

>> Perseverance


Those skills is what he used to become one of the finest and popular in His division .

But for this fight? I will Share with Cotto's favoritism ..

I'm not so sure about that, Cotto is a great fighter also and Marquez is not really a heavy puncher, he is just durable in the ring but I believe Cotto is smart as a boxer, and I guess they'll never meet as Cotto weight is higher compared to Marquez.

Have you seen Marquez goes up in weight to fight Mayweather?

Look what happen, he was schooled by Mayweather and the fight was not even exciting to watch. Mayweather vs Cotto was better although Mayweather still win.

These are some of the names that Cotto beat.

Sergio Martinez
Antonio Margarito
Ricardo Mayorga
Yuri Foreman
Zab Judah ( the one that almost beat Mayweather)
2453  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Online Gambling 'or' Day trading cryptos- Which one is more lucrative? on: April 08, 2021, 11:51:31 PM
It depends on your skill which one do you prefer or which one you could play right.
There are people who are more skilled in gambling compared to trading while other prefer trading because they have the skill and knowledge for it.
You just need to know which one you could do better and stick to it.
yeah, it really matters to us where we are confident of doing it and where we are more knowledgeable. Both of them can be considered lucrative but also depending on how we do it.

LUCK and Skills for Gambling
Knowledge and skills for Trading

probably, I have to choose to trade as I was more engaged with it than in gambling.
2454  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] KICKICO - PLATFORM FOR FUNDRAISING ON CRYPTOCURRENCY on: April 08, 2021, 04:41:11 PM
I still have almost 300k KICK left.  do you think the price can still do x10-x20?  in any case, I will hold on for a while.

Don't sell !! I don't know if the team will talk about this in the AMA but the frozen excess coin will be burned.

So I was told at the launch of their KickEX exchange by a chat moderator.
This coin could really fly x100 or more, it's an exchange coin (not bad as an exchange).

I have been upset about the project management for a long time and they even banned me from telegram. But I have to say that looking long term they already have a good racehorse.
Furthermore, with competition and more, they could further burn the supply.

So you are saying that those who received an airdrop of 888888 kick token will not enjoy that airdrop because it's going to be useless?
Please enlighten me a bit, people are now interested on the airdrop as the price is soaring, so they want to cash out.
2455  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Manny Pacquiao offered $10 million to fight Terence Crawford on: April 08, 2021, 04:20:03 PM
I doubt Marquez would fight Pacquiao again. He already turned down millions of dollars and closed that chapter because he felt he has nothing to prove anymore.
yeah, I guess so, just like I said earlier I'd rather see them fight younger fighters to would push them to the limit and show that they wouldn't be left behind or overpowered.

I think Fans still want a fight between Pacquiao and Marquez, it wasn't really Marquez who is better than Pacquiao because Pacquiao had more wins in their series of fights if I'm not mistaken, the problem is, Pacquiao always gives him a chance for a rematch everytime he loss but when he won, he did not want it anymore, I feel its unfair because that win wasn't even a dominant win by Marquez, some called it a lucky punch.
2456  Economy / Economics / Re: Why you can't be rich by owning crypto on: April 08, 2021, 01:39:04 PM
Why? Because it is not the reason why people are investing in crypto. Because if they are into that goal, they have to start buying Bitcoin earlier but that was not happening and we never know as well that Bitcoin will have this current value. If they just buy 100BTC when it was just $1 and just sell it right now, you can't really imagine how much they get. But no one does, and that no one will become rich because of just owning crypto.

Ok guys. I am trying to understand what is going on with this token swapping. I was airdropped 888888 Kicktokens way back but now I am trying to swap it on MEW or uniswap but it gives me an error. So I have spent $8 bucks to approve the token with metamask and now I can't sell it on the descentralized exchanges. I have read the comments above and looks like the froze the token but then why am I seeing selling activity and volume on uniswap here:

https://info.uniswap.org/token/0XC12D1C73EE7DC3615BA4E37E4ABFDBDDFA38907E

Can someone comment on this?

Hi leps, all the information that you need to know is posted by ;

There's no way you can swap the token if you cannot unfreeze it and I think they are still in ERC20 now.
2458  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: April 07, 2021, 09:56:57 PM
It's been a while and for sure a lots of fans are really missing this league.

Seeing comments on the social media in the PBA groups, pages, or basketball groups, not seeing things like that because of the current situation.

Fans don't seem to be excited about the league because they know it won't be happening soon and their mindset is now all about pandemic affecting their general lives. There are also rumors that some PBA players don't want to play next conference either in the usual or bubble setup since the virus is just around the corner.

Maybe if Ray Parks wasn't acting weird he can be save by the current situation of the PBA if he doesn't want to play since PBA might not commence anytime soon. I also like to emphasize that PBA players does not make their own decision all the time, if PBA will say there's a bubble and they have to play, they should because without some of the popular players, PBA will be boring to watch, this is business, they are needed to attract more people to watch.
2459  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Get rich, don't die trying... Best Crypto Trading Method with Proof on: April 07, 2021, 03:23:05 PM
If that strategy really works then every trader will become rich at an instant, what I mean is there’s a lot of trading strategies yet many are still losing money so I don’t think you’ll become rich by just trading.

Beside the "at an instant": it is absolutely impossible that everybody is getting rich trading. If I'm making 8R a month somebody else must have lost that amount of money.  That's the competitive nature of asset markets.
Indeed, many people got fool into the word "instant rich" and that is a big lie.

No matter how OP wanted to prove themselves that they are legit but can't neglect people to think negatively as they are also referring to their experience.
And probably OP is right, don't die trying hard to fool people (they are pointing themselves back then).
2460  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Altcoin season ending in may ? on: April 07, 2021, 02:34:33 PM
Maybe, just maybe and I will believe that if it will happen next month(May). I know that was pure speculation and that seems to be not right and definitely wrong? Have any choice?

I was thinking that it never happens for the reason that Altcoins is just started, we are not yet hitting the peak. We can see that Bitcoin still at a high price, but if we are seeing Bitcoin turning back down again in a straight line, that will seeing Altcoins will follow the trend and that bullish season is over.
