2521  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Buying house with fake tokens on: August 14, 2022, 01:14:04 PM
Well, guys, I need to provide some updates according to your questions:

First of all, yes, this is real news.
First title: A scammer who bought several houses with fake cryptocurrency, and yes, that person has been arrested. It's funny Cheesy

I also read it in the newspaper. I'm sorry, but I don't have a direct link. If I find it, I will update this thread immediately.

You have edited your story but still don't have any more information to prove your story.
I am still following your story and so far you have not been able to provide details or link to us proving this is a true story. If you can't provide the link, tell us what is the name of that fake token? And how were the home sellers cheated? Is he a crypto investor?, $1.2 million is not a small amount, it is not easy for someone to be cheated with such a huge amount.
I also think the same and $1.2 million is a very large amount and the average investor who has a very large amount of money is definitely not a random person, and I'm sure he will do thorough research first before acting.
and I'm also still curious, especially for fake tokens that are not named because this incident will tarnish the name of crypto because it has something to do with crypto. And there are still many scams in the crypto world that must be minimized, don't get it wrong or make it up because it will make people afraid to get involved.

I just can't get it. What's wrong with Manchester United? Is it really related to being unlucky or is it much more than that? As far as I can see they are not in a good place as for being lucky but I don't think that's all about them. Whoever comes to manage and save the team he just fails. There must be something inside this team that is messing up all the things for them. They had better figure it out soon because it can't go on like this. A 4-0 loss in a game like this is unacceptable.
Manchester United have started their trash right from last season, the club continues the trash this season, even with Cristiano Ronaldo, Brentford won very easily with Manchester United having the ball possession but Brentford was able to penetrate and score with more shots on goal. Best not to just go for Manchester United for now, they have a lot to change about the club. Congrats to Brentford.
The humiliating result against Brentford made Ronaldo even more reluctant to stay at Manchester United, and after the game he showed feelings of disappointment and frustration.
Ronaldo refused to interact with everyone after the humiliating defeat, including the fans. Despite disrespecting Erik ten Hag, the Manchester United manager by not shaking Ten Hag's hand after the match, Ronaldo rushed into the dressing room instead.
I'm sure if in the next game he loses again Ronaldo will leave because the club he has always stayed at is not as bad as Manchester United.

Da Silva scored an interesting goal for Brentford. He made a weak shot from outside the penalty area, but De Gea missed the ball from his hands. Da Silva's goal celebration was very sympathetic. He seemed to be saying 'it's not my fault'. Manchester United may have a hard time turning the match. They don't look good.

And the match is now Brentford 2 - 0 Manchester United.
A very disappointing result for Manchester United, in the first half against Brentford trailing 2-0 through goals from Josh Dasilva in the 10th minute and Mathias Jensen in the 18th minute.
The first half is still going on and I hope Manchester United can level the score even though I find it difficult because Brentford's defense is very good, I don't really understand what Manchester United really needs, players or coaches or everything.

edit: wow... the score went 4-0 at half-time for Brentford Grin
2524  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Price Can Fail and Will Touch Be US $ 13k Dollar? on: August 13, 2022, 08:07:50 AM
Bad things can happen, I hear bitcoin because many laugh when the price of dropping from $ 1000 to under $ 120 in 2014, but the fact is bitcoin can rise, in my opinion the condition used to be more difficult than now, and now there are many developers and users so that the needs of bitcoin will be Continue to increase, if later drop $ 13k then I will buy more.
What is clear, we all miss that moment, right? But indeed, no one can guess where the movement of bitcoin is going right. Maybe we can guess that the price will increase after this, but we do not know how long the increase will occur and how long the rising moment will last. I'm sure not only you that will use the moment when bitcoin drops to $13k to buy more, but people who already know and believe in the potential of bitcoin will use that moment to increase their bitcoin count, myself included Grin
The ups and downs of the bitcoin price are caused by several factors which in my opinion bitcoin movements are not easy to predict, and many people predict the bitcoin price will go up and vice versa but sometimes it can turn things around suddenly.
I believe a lot of investors expect the bitcoin price to drop as you say to reach 13K to be able to collect more bitcoins, but in reality the bitcoin price did not reach that price and is currently holding at 23K and 24K and will even approach 25K.
doing DCA is still the best option until you feel comfortable enough and hold it in for the long term.
2525  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sources of gambling news on: August 13, 2022, 03:54:46 AM
It makes no sense to ask for gambling news sites because they are, first of all, easily accessible and easy to find, and also very regionalized. Like in the UK they will cover news about local football teams and local news about casinos openings or sites getting their license approved. You need to know what you're looking for. Also, gambling and crypto gambling are two different things. Crypto is still a niche that isn't covered by many of these sites. If you want crypto casino news you'll probably find more information here on the forum.
I was thinking the same thing, while it could make sense for a person to look at all the gambling news that they may come across, the truth is that very few people are going to be interested in all the news related to gambling, they are only going to be interested in a small amount of news to the point it is way more effective to just search for what you are looking for on the Internet and be done with it once you find it.
People look for the specific sports and find the available platforms for making the bets. Along with that, to know about the statistics about the games played by those teams and the player information we have got different websites. As said people are specific about the information and this can be accessed through one's self search.
Yes, the platforms available for making bets in my opinion are sufficient because the information provided is of little help although not satisfied, but to have a trustworthy website depends on our trust.
I mean what we think is good is not necessarily good for others and vice versa, actually a lot of looking for information and news about sports which is very easily accessible through search and depends on the needs.

Slot machines are the easiest casino games, and that's why they are the most popular games especially for beginners and you don't need any back knowledge to play slots.
because this is the easiest game and requires no skill i can't say the right time to play it, and the right time is when you have free time and use the money you can afford to lose, and play casually for fun just hoping for luck. Grin
2527  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I have started teaching Bitcoin to my Neighbors on: August 13, 2022, 01:12:12 AM
the umpteenth time you and your other friends are so impressive. I think your concern for the environment to educate them about bitcoin is very impressive. Indeed, there is no recommendation and maybe your environmental pressure and branding on social media might make them interested.
you have to be patient when maybe money management and psychology they are not used to the price fluctuations. I think you know enough about it. Your kindness and dedication are very good. I hope you are consistent and always enthusiastic about the programs you start, the spirit of educating other cryptocurrencies that you know
Having time to educate others in our own environment is a very good thing. Because not everyone has this ability at this time, especially educating people for the purpose of making money and work through cryptocurrency, it is clearly very good and cannot be denied. But as for the problem of consistency, I think it also really depends on the attitude and the person being educated, if for example their response can be very good, then the consistency of the educator will also exist.
And we as longtime bitcoin users should be able to do what the OP did because it's good for them and it can also increase users, but it's good that it happens on their own accord because bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies are high risk.
and it will be easier to understand for those of their own accord than we have invited, and they will surely appreciate and will also study earnestly when we teach them.
for the purpose of working or making money in this industry people will be excited but it all depends on their seriousness, not only relying on teaching but must have the initiative to seek further information or knowledge for themselves. Teaching, learning and understanding bitcoin requires patience for both the teacher and the person being taught to get the desired results.
2528  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: August 12, 2022, 05:09:42 PM

Only Ten Hag can not do this. He must be supported by the club from President to Sport Head Staff and Manchester United players. The club must support him to get players he need to improve weakness.

I think so far they have yet gotten success in this transfer time. Ronaldo is not happ not because he will not be able to play in Champions League but partially because he sees bad future with Manchester United transfer in this summer. No good and necessary players join, so it will be hard and mostly impossible for them to improve dramatically.


Ten Hag has get support to bring in new players, but it is difficult for United to get them because most of their targets refuse to join MU because they want to play in the UCL or for other reasons.

Regarding Ronaldo, on several occasions he issued a statement that he wanted to play in the UCL, so he said he would leave MU if they are didn't improve. ofc, this is just a rumor for now, but I'm sure it's not just bullshit. Ronaldo does not only threaten, if at the end of the season, MU fails to finish in the top 4 again. I am sure we will see Ronaldo join other clubs since his contract will expire summer 2023.
Yes, I also read that the news of Ronaldo at Manchester United is currently in the spotlight because the player is rumored to want to leave Old Trafford, and the main reason is because Manchester United does not play in the UCL.
Even if Ronaldo stays, Ten Hag must find new players whose quality of play is the same as Ronaldo's and must also get players that Manchester United desperately needs.
2529  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Problem Gambler Feels After Losing on: August 11, 2022, 05:11:09 PM
Gambling is a game of chance, most people think. Hockey betting.
if I fail to win on the first try, maybe I will succeed next time, if still lose, play again.
Then, I was very angry. I was ambitious to be able to win and giving up after losing was a coward.

This is what I like to experience, when you lose there is bound to be feelings of frustration, curiosity, emotion and ambition and I'm sure everyone has experienced it without realizing it. And I think gambling is designed that way and we should really try and learn to control ourselves.
but gradually all of that can be overcome by learning from mistakes and becoming a responsible and disciplined gambler.

Am I the only one seeing that ETH is decoupling from BTC? If this happens and Ethereum becomes a better target for institutional then it is finished, many altcoins depends on Ethereum but the whole market depends on BTC, what do you think will happen
Yes now everywhere Ethereum is trending and it's look like that many institution will adopt Ethereum like BTC but it's will he very hard to overthrow BTC . No one now that this Merge will prove positive or Negative for Ethereum. We will see Massive buy and sell. I believe the price will go up massively, especially in the long term. I think the price can go up quite a bit more in the short term as well, but it’s hard to takeover BTC.
Yes, maybe because it is a trend, and both cryptocurrencies have their respective interests with unique features, bitcoin is known as a store of value and is also very rare.
whereas ethereum is famous for its unique blockchain features, hundreds of smart contracts, dapps, tokens run on the ethereum blockchain, which makes ethereum unique. And no doubt its value will increase over time, but that doesn't mean ethereum can overtake bitcoin.
2531  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / 5 truths about bitcoin, in my opinion? on: August 11, 2022, 03:23:17 AM
1. Bitcoin will probably make a lot of people rich especially for long term holders... again
2. Bitcoin is the future and bitcoin is the medium of exchange because it is widely accepted, portable, shareable, accessible, commensurate and relatively stable. That's why it will be used as future currency.
3. Bitcoin can save the world
4. Bitcoin is not very easy to understand and there is too much misinformation about it.
5. Bitcoin has spread far, far more than most people know. There are already some of the biggest companies in the world using blockchain technology and some countries actually want to clone bitcoin, because bitcoin is so good.

It is common things many girls didn’t like gamble and They always pressure there boy friend  to stop gamble . coz they think gamble is a bad habit .but here i like gambling a lot i will never stop gamble gamble if my girl friend insists me he he
Gambling is really a bad habit . so i think it is better for everyone stop gamble . Gambling can completely end a person's life in an instant. Gambling is a bad addiction so it is best to stay away from it. i will definitely stop gambling if my girl friend insists me.
Yes, I think what you said is absolutely true. It becomes very difficult for those who gamble to find invoices. I don't know how much gambling I've lost. Instead of waiting for your girlfriend to tell you to quit gambling, quit gambling yourself. I have also thought about giving up gambling. But if I had a girlfriend like you I would never gamble again.
My purpose of gambling is not to make money. I just enjoy my free time on gambling. Gambling is not my addiction.  Gambling is my hobby. And it gives me a temporary pleasure. So I don't think I should give up gambling because of pressure from my girlfriend. If I have to give up gambling, I will give it up of my own free will.

That's when you tell this to your girlfriend, she will ask you to leave gambling as it only provides temporary pleasure while she can provide you with permanent pleasure  Wink

Better to ask her what is the exact reason she wants us to quit gambling and then we will be in a better position to respond.  Smiley
What your partner wants is for your good and that's a sign that your partner loves you very much, and if you really love him that's okay too and you follow him because he knows gambling is not good and can be detrimental.
Gambling will bring destruction to you and your partner will bring happiness and also the spirit of life to get more money than spending it on gambling, many divorce cases because they often gamble. And losing gambling can cause emotions, not caring and so on that cause fights.
2533  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: August 10, 2022, 10:52:23 AM
The first week there were some surprises that even one of the favorite teams had to accept. But it must be remembered, here it is not like the Bundesliga or other leagues which are only dominated by a few teams. We will see a surprise in a game that is still very long.
Usually in the Premier League it always takes a toll for the coach to be fired at the beginning of the competition. Will this happen now?

Of the several favorite Premier League teams, Manchester United maybe the one that gives a surprise, while Man City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Tottenham and Arsenal in normal situations.

However, Manchester United's defeat yesterday by Brighton was quite surprising, because in the hands of their new coach with some changes to important positions it is hoped that they will be able to bring about changes for Manchester United.
A lot has been said and written in the months preceding the season regarding the changes that Ten Hag was hoping to bring to the club but we saw little evidence of such in the game against Brighton as last season's defensive mishaps and incapabilities going forward appeared to remain. Manchester United struggled to play a string of passes and open up their opponents' backline. With how the first game went, I think Erik ten Hag will be hoping for a midfield reinforcement before the transfer window closes.


Manchester United's 2-1 defeat to Brighton in their inaugural EPL match became a very bitter defeat for Manchester United, because this was Erik ten Hag's debut and they played at Old Trafford.
and the high expectations from fans for Erik ten Hag to be able to bring Manchester United to be better, and against Brighton yesterday made United and Ten Hag aware that they needed new players in midfield and also lacked players in attack. And I hope Manchester United for the next game will bring good results, and if there are no changes then it will be no different from the previous Manchester United.
2534  Economy / Speculation / Re: I do believe that Bitcoin will be more scarce than gold on: August 10, 2022, 09:30:07 AM
What we have to understand is the number or stock of bitcoin is locked or fixed and cannot be added, if the number of users continues to increase it will make demand continue to increase and the price will skyrocket, many people always compare with gold, but what makes me curious is whether bitcoin is whether bitcoin whether bitcoin Can you last 50 years? While gold was used and recognized thousands of years ago.
If we think about the sustainability of gold then undoubtedly gold will be ahead of Bitcoin because gold is recognized as a valuable asset since ancient times. If we judge it based on its price or next generation adoption then Bitcoin is the best what many have repeatedly emphasized is the limited supply of Bitcoin, which has no limitation in the case of Gold. I think bitcoin is just the beginning as the population is gradually increasing. As the demand gradually increasing the importance of bitcoin will also increase from all aspects.
These two are not comparable because this is depending in which who we ask. of course if we will question this for cryptonians then Bitcoin will be the one to choose but for those who does not believe in Bitcoin? then it is Gold .
yes it is from ancient time but remember that we are in computer age now in which everything is depending in technology and almost the physical one are not that trustworthy , maybe not now but sooner in the future.
Of course yes, because gold has a source of creation but bitcoin does not, and as we all know bitcoin has a limited supply for worldwide use not today but forever.
as long as bitcoin continues to exist gradually everyone will get to know bitcoin and understand the difference between bitcoin and gold that they are ultimately interested in getting involved.
the bitcoin = gold narrative is an easy crutch because bitcoin shares many characteristics with gold. It's rare, portable, valuable, shareable, doesn't degrade over time, and has value despite having no cash flow.

It's no secret that the presence of social media in the midst of society, has also changed the lifestyle in socializing and communicating, and of course also has an impact on running a business. Because all business activities can not be separated from social interaction.
There are various types of business opportunities that arise with social media as a medium for business transactions and communication, but you still have to be careful because social media also opens up opportunities for fraudsters. So we have to be smart and also do some research before doing it.

2537  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Educating people on Bitcoin for free on: August 09, 2022, 12:13:21 PM
I have tried my best to educate people around me on the basic concept of Bitcoin and make them aware of the advantages and disadvantages of Bitcoin adoption and how best to minimize the risk associated with Bitcoin, to attain some level of self-satisfaction through Bitcoin.

I appreciate the efforts being made by you to teach bitcoin to the people near you however the title suggests that you have given this education free of cost. That is the right thing to do as it is not morally good that someone takes money in order to tell the basic things about bitcoin. The awareness about bitcoin should be created freely and it will be a more effective one.
Awareness and initiative to provide knowledge or introduce bitcoin is a very good choice and rightfully so, because bitcoin or crypto is still considered negatively by the government which is unlikely to support the way of adoption by applying subjects or the like.
bitcoin will continue to grow and become popular thanks to the old users who took the initiative to introduce bitcoin in a different way for those who don't know and understand bitcoin, for friends, family, relatives and also the generation that we must try to teach bitcoin so that they also feel the benefits of good bitcoin .
2538  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Discussion] Should Gambling be Banned? on: August 08, 2022, 04:42:03 PM
The thing is that even if gambling is banned in any country there will still be people hosting gambling activities.
So in a way, gambling cannot be banned completely so why not just regulate it in a way that people are restricted from gambling too much.
The same goes for online, there will still be accessible for them with the use of the tools like VPN. A gambler will continue what he has been doing despite the ban and no one will know about it unless there's a tracker that will figure it out who are the citizens that are accessing casinos online and violates the law.


Yeah that's right. Whether it be gambling online or offline at a physical casino, both can still be done with it has been banned by the regulatory authorities.
In fact, there are people who has found a workaround to keep the gambling business running.
In one of the cities in my country they are operating gambling casinos on ships which are on waterbodies since gambling casinos are banned in land area.
Isn't it funny and witty at the same time. Who would have taught that the government would really allow gambling in this way.
Online or offline gambling will never go away even though it is strictly prohibited or whatever, let alone traditional or real gambling because it existed before we were born even before our parents were born.
although it is strictly prohibited and all gambling sites are blocked, there is even a risk of going to jail if caught, online or offline gambling still exists and everyone will do it in any way even if they have to hide. So in my opinion gambling will continue to exist for generations even if it is prohibited or whatever.

actually easy, work is certain because we definitely get a salary every month, and some of the salary from your work you can use to form a business and if you have savings it doesn't hurt to start a business.
What I mean and what I'm doing now is, I have a steady job and also a business that has been running for a few months, my business started because I have savings and vice versa. There's nothing wrong with me planning to set aside some of my salary for working capital gradually.
Or apply for a loan as needed for your capital because you have a job that will be able to pay for it, but make sure the business is good and profitable.
back to my job and business, besides my job, I have a food stall or basic necessities from work savings. Since I have a regular job I will not be doing my own business, there is still a wife or other family member who can help or run the business and get paid.
so in my opinion both will be better and having a job is important because from work we can or are able to do anything including business, if not where will you get the capital from.

No one can predict exactly whether it will happen or not, but considering bitcoin took several years to reach its peak price. Ethereum hasn't even hit the 10k threshold yet, it's hard for me to imagine that kind of growth spurt.
bitcoin or ethereum have never been in the ranking of direct competitors, and bitcoin is understood as a payment system, whereas using tokens to implement smart contracts.
and if we talk about market cap, popularity and also can store value no doubt, bitcoin is still the king of crypto.
