2581  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: is right time for investment ? on: June 25, 2022, 11:15:40 PM
Hi everyone hope you guys are doing great i just want to ask a quick question in last days Elon musk tweeted about the meme token doge and after that the meme tokens are trending so i found one good project named Hippoinu.io the first web 3.0 aggregator where user can earn rewards in all meme tokens and i think investing in this project is legit and they have a presale on pinksale on 26th june 14:00 UTC i am thinking to take part in the presale but i am scared of losing money so i need suggestions from you guys should i invest in it or not.

We are in a bear market at the moment and therefore all projects, even the good and established ones have significantly lost value. This is a sad thing of course for everyone that is interested or invested in cryptos. The bright side of this though is that now you have a chance to buy good and established crypto project for a fraction of the price that you would have paid a year ago or so.
The meme-coin hype is over and the tweets of Elon Musk have little or even no effect anymore because people are used to it. I think that meme-coins will sloly but surely die out. The biggest ones will maybe remain in the top 50 but that is it. So i would definitely not invest into shit-coins.
It is important that traders and investors adjust their behavior according to the circumstances of the market, when every single asset in the market is going up then it makes sense to take some additional risk as even coins which are undeserving of the attention go up in value.

But when we are in a bear market and even the best coin we have available goes down in a dramatic fashion then it is better to not take additional risk with unknown coins, as the risk of collapse is too high when the market is under the current conditions.
Thats what make things even more harder on a bear market on which even great or good projects do really comes down in terms of value and even if you do know it does have potential then you would really be still hesitating

on investing because of the fear that the project might end up dead or bottom priced on this bear market but for those who do have the courage and trust on certain projects then they dont really tend out to die even on what market conditions is experiencing on.

Making or takin decisions on times like this is the hardest part of being a crypto investor on which there's no assurance on what would gonna happen on upcoming years or days to come at least
but as long you dont go all in or something like that then i dont see any wrong things about it.

We all know Bitcoin in the long term is only going one way
No way. Sure thing that btc can go up but there's always a way that the price can nose dive like on what we witnessed on the 2017-2018, and also on 2021 and from this current year where the price supposed to be at 69k but now it fell to 20k. The same thing can also happen in the future.

Before, on the 2018 bear, many people didn't take the opportunity because they are still new to it and I think that was the first big crash ever recorded in the history of cryptos so people are too sceptical that time if btc will recover or its already the end of it but now that they figured out that btc kina undying or immortal, old timers won't miss any opportunities anymore.
There's no such thing about forever but we know that bitcoin is something that cant just die easily or getting been replaced by some altcoins in the market but we know that probabilities would really be there thats why we cant really

assure on what would be the future looks like.For those who hesitated then they had missed out the opportunity but for those whom do still trust that the market would be giving out another good pump or ATH

then they are the ones who do make out profits but as expected where corrections could really happen.It might not happened directly or instantly but there are really days or season where market is really heading to the floor
which is something that we arent really anticipating for it to happen or we do anticipate but we didnt really expect that it would really be going that too low.

Gamble on the amount which you can afford to lose which is the main rule when you do gamble or even on investments too where you cant really just make out some reckless decisions because you would really affecting in overall.

Honestly, there's nothing wrong to gamble on the amount beyond anyone's limit or afford to lose as long as these people know what they are dealing with and the possible consequences that they might face later on. I don't really have that kind of mindset as that will just ruin my focus. My main goal is how to increase my chances of winning no matter what. I'm talking about betting on sports betting in which we are not just relying on luck to win.

Anyways, this statement of mind is not applicable if a person is playing luck-based gambling games. Here, gambling with the amount they afford to lose should be applied no matter what as in gambling, we should not just rely on luck to win.
This is the difference when you do neither deal with strategic gambling games like sports betting or luck based ones which is preferring to dice/slots/roulletes etc.I do agree into your point that its not bad to gamble beyond limits but

be sure that you do know on what you are doing and you wont really go into those heights or something which would really be causing some disaster later on when it comes to your finances.
Spend only on the amount which you can afford to lose as the primary rule not only on gambling but also in investment.

Trends would continue and we are really expecting something that is new into the market which we could able to play whether its strategic or luck based.
2584  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online Casino Trends For 2022 on: June 24, 2022, 11:14:03 PM
The drop for land based casinos did in fruition started at the start of the pandemic, it had made people to stay at homes while the online casinos continued to operate.

As a matter of fact, there's a news again in Macau that there's a spike of covid-19 cases and that can result in another implementation of lock down in some of their streets and likely gambling houses.

I'm waiting for one more thing in these physical casinos that will be a big trend for sure, acceptance of cryptocurrencies.
Now as the Covid has brought the whole world online there are new trends and techniques - people have learned the online gambling and that is how many people who live in the areas where gambling is ban are enjoying gambling and are menting money. There are pros and cons. Ofcourse!
It became like a pastime because we're all at our homes.

But it's now up to those who have discovered crypto gambling to leave it or not. Because it seems that there are many of those who have tried it became addicted to it or hooked into it.

The side effects are there and they have to take accountability for their own actions just like us. We know who we are and what will be our reactions as we gamble and those that gambled so much ended up addicted.
Gamble on the amount which you can afford to lose which is the main rule when you do gamble or even on investments too where you cant really just make out some reckless decisions because you would really affecting in overall.

Speaking of casino trends then it would be continuous and we might see something new which we havent seen on this market before but as far as we can see it is really just the same.The numbers of houses or platforms
is increasing yet the demand is increasing too.

Addiction is a common problem but also the thing that fuels out for this business to be profitable.
2585  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Every "Bitcoin is Dead Headline" is a Buying Opportunity on: June 24, 2022, 10:27:11 PM
Yes, that's absolutely the signal whenever the media tells us that bitcoin is dead and it has been said 400+ times. There's nothing new to say from them because that's the pattern that they've said to do.
And we know that every cycle, there's a big correction that happens and when that comes in, you know what you're up to and that's the time that you should be buying whether you DCA, a big purchase, or when it's about to rise again. Just buy.

with more than decade-long existence of BTC, we really have heard, read countless times BTC gone dead. and yet, BTC remains to be at the top position of this market. and i am not seeing that this will be gone soon. at least, with my opinion on this market.
if you do believe that this market will stay and further increase in the future, why not get some while we are in this bearish period? but up to your financial capability here. as we have no idea what we will encounter in the next years to come, you should assess your financials before plunging in.
Yeah, the bear market is still there and yet bitcoin remains to stay at $20k despite it going low to $17k. The $17k is still a high price if you've been staying here for so long. But for a newbie, of course, it's not, especially if they've both at the top of the market when everyone is FOMOing.
With uncertainty that's dealing the world right now, it's best to diversify or get into investments for us to have something to pull in the plug whenever the worse case scenario comes in the financial world and everyone is devastated except those invested and prepared.
On the time that you had step your foot into this market then you should really make yourself prepared in terms of volatility on which there are really those times where the market is really on deep reds or really that bearish.If you are

noob and able to enter into the market where everything is on its peak or ATH then its not really something that could really be blamed on why they do really have these kind of reactions on which they have come into the peak
and due to lack of experience and awareness then these are just common reactions on where they do panic and freak out because of whats happening in the market.

If you've been here on this market and been aware on how things works and behaves then you would really be just treating this just like an ordinary day.

~ Addiction could be molded out easily when you do really have that kind of intent in mind on how to make quick bucks without putting much effort on it.

Indeed those are dangerous thoughts that always lead to problems, and not only financial ones.

Gambling isn't there to make quick bucks, it's for entertainment and relaxation. Even poker and sports betting should not be considered as a money making process, let alone purely luck based games like slots.

Yes, slots are addictive because it's fun to play them, and there are so many of them that you can always find a perfect one to your liking. And that's a good thing in general, but don't turn it into something more serious than entertainment.
But we are seeing the different scenario yet considering on how big gambling industry had become over the past years until into the present which do really shows that people do really end up on going into that path.
which they do become impulsive and doesnt matter whether they are into slots,sports betting or poker it would really be just ending on the same intent which is to make money and some do still try on pursuing the impossible.

I know there are people who do able to sustain theirselves on playing for long term and able to make a living with gambling even though its sounds impossible but it did really happen.
All gambling games do poses such risk about those common problems specially when you are addicted, from financial till to relational type of problems which been commonly experienced.
2587  Economy / Economics / Re: Where to invest everything looking bearish on: June 23, 2022, 11:59:42 PM
But this only applies to Altcoin investment.
For Bitcoin investment, I don't think putting all money there is the wrong way (especially for the long-term investment). There are many people only investing in Bitcoin and they can prove that nothing wrong with a single investment in BTC only. However, to optimize the profits, I do agree that diversifying assets is the best option.


A good piece of advice is always a great relief for investment.
most of the time people dont know how to invest their money. And they end up in trouble. . Also keeping a close look on the local investment opportunity is also a good option.
If you dont have any idea on where to invest then reading and researching would be the best way for you on at least getting some idea on what are the things you should gonna do.Making out some research even into this forum alone

would really be that sufficient or helpful which does simply implies that making yourself familiar and snipping out some ideas is the real deal plus having your own personal learnings from various sources will really be helpful.

Anything you do need could really be found online or simply in google and the rest of learning could be acquired through real experience.
2588  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Slots is More Likely to Cause Gambling Problem on: June 23, 2022, 10:57:37 PM
Well, there are lots of activities that can trigger dopamine release: listening to your favourite band, making love, shopping, smelling cookies baking in the oven even. So, you basically switch to one of those, and you are fine. That's what I do, anyway.

I agree, that is why I divert myself to other dopamine-producing activities such as playing games when I feel that I am too hooked on my gambling activities.

Yeah, games. Great example. I forgot about it because I myself don't play video games, maybe because no dopamine release is triggered when I play, but, of course, for people who enjoy it, that would be a good substitution.

Usually I don't really believe anytime or something I do read up on internet which do tell something which is out or doesn't have sense nor correlating or being realistic.15 months is too long yet addiction to gambling could even happen immediately.  Cheesy

Idk, maybe they are talking about some severe addiction, and for that kind of addiction to develop it takes 15 months, but from my experience 3-4 weeks is enough for finding yourself in a situation when you start thinking, "Am I addicted?" 
Addiction could neither be mild to severe and it do really depends on how many weeks or months you would really be having those own questions in mind that if you are addicted.Its really impossible that you wont really be

having those kind of questions in regarding with your actions which its impossible that you would simply be ignoring if ever you do find out that you are doing too much and not really that good already into your finances.

Addiction could be molded out easily when you do really have that kind of intent in mind on how to make quick bucks without putting much effort on it.
2589  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which stablecoin do you "trust" the most? on: June 23, 2022, 09:57:36 PM
At the moment, I completely refused to keep my money in decentralized algorithmic stablecoins, since most of them have lost their binding to the dollar. USDC is more attractive for saving your funds, since this stablecoin is fully backed by the fiat dollar, but at the same time the risk of blocking increases for those who may fall under sanctions, since it is centralized.
Stable coins are a very important dude in light of price fluctuations in the crypto market, so freezing your money is the definitive solution to not lose it, Do not worry, these stable coins have proven their worth for many years and are central in the opinion that there is no problem in that, as there is no specific party that has banned them or punished their officials to this day, I have been holding USDT and USDC for years and I have not found anything that caused my money to be lost.
Even do have lots of criticisms out of these stable coins but i do still make use of USDT on securing out my profits or saving out myself in volatile market where uneasiness and non sure situations which ive been doing these things

through couple of years already.Im not really into those technical and regulation or something in relate with those situations or issues but one thing i do need is to have that benefit
whenever i do face up certain conditions in the market or some conversions which i do need for me to able on making up some switching.
2590  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: If Bitcoin drops to $8k on: June 23, 2022, 08:36:46 PM
And all of people say that them bitcoin has no future. But i will say bitcoin is the next Economically weapons.
People will say "Bitcoin is dead, Bitcoin has no future anymore and etc etc". People will definitely use these phrases just to bait people to sell more and make people panic because of these words. If you are brave enough, I would prefer to just buy it when it would ever hit $8k and check if it's a good price to stay on, otherwise I would wait more if the price would ever continuously dipping.
Expect those lines whenever we do hit bear market on which there are ones who do really say those negativities around and on the time that bitcoin do able to climb or recover once again then those negative words would turn into

positive ones  which is really a very common behavior or reaction that you could really see into this market or simply being that situational thats why you should really get used to those words and sentiments.One thing is important is

that you should really make yourself get prepared on any possible situations that might be faced up ahead since you wont know on what would be happening on next minute/hour/day/week or month.

2592  Economy / Economics / Re: Can Central Bank Digital Currencies Kill Cryptocurrencies ? on: June 22, 2022, 11:58:57 AM
Central Bank Digital Currencies and Bitcoin offers different services. Central Bank currencies are centralized and controlled by government. They are digitalized fiat created to compete with Bitcoin to make their citizens loose interest in Bitcoin. While Bitcoin holds the key to privacy and freedom. Smart people would always know the difference and the advantage of Bitcoin over these CBDCs and would definitely choose the former. The relatively low transaction fees of Bitcoin would forever make Bitcoin the preferred choice. My insinuation is that both CBDC and Bitcoin would continue to exist. If any one would kill each other, my guess is that Bitcoin would kill them all.     
The problem is that on average people do not want to bother about learning the differences between the two, which means they will believe whatever they are told by the government, and if they are told that CBDCs are better than bitcoin then they will believe it, and even if we got to see a massive crisis in the future and people had to learn the hard way about how bad the fiat system is for them, I am sure that just a few years after it they will forget about it and the governments will begin to push for their fiat and CBDCs again.
If you are illeterate then you would really be having this kind of problem in differentiation in between cbdc and cryptocurrencies and on the question if cbdc can kill crypto? No it can't because it's a different market which simply means
That people would really be still supporting crypto since we do know the benefits in terms of utility plus having the opportunity for you to make profits or money or in terms of investment.
2593  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Canelo vs Golovkin 3 (September 17) on: June 22, 2022, 09:43:39 AM
^^ He is young and very ambitious, tall and has the advantage on Canelo (reach and height). And he has a good power too, so it's a perfect match for Canelo. But so far he is not on the radar of his team, after GGG maybe they will have to think if they will go for rematch with Bivol. Beterviev is out of the equation for him. There could still be some boxers in 168 lbs that could be safe fight for Canelo. Maybe one try at light heavy weight with Bivol and that's it, regardless of the outcome.

And that certainly gives him edge against Canelo Alvarez who recently suffered loss from the LHW champion Dmitrii Bivol, Benavidez has a pretty rap sheet and bigger KO rate than Canelo. But, wee don't know for sure as we're still giving some early speculation about Canelo's 3rd fight this year, that said, they're still on the 2nd phase now which is fighting GGG for the 3rd time.
I don't really have doubts that Bivol could beat up Canelo basing on stats and paper but beaten up by ggg on trilogy then  I could see the possibility that ggg might get this one and possibly have a good fight or win before he retires.We are fast approaching on the said date which should be enough for both fighters to have ample time on preparation for closing this rival on this trilogy.
2594  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How long do you think the market will take to recover? on: June 22, 2022, 02:01:09 AM
We are still in bear and this is my opinion. So it's better to thread with caution and see how things unfold. Don't be in a hurry to buy so that you won't exhaust your funds even if you want to DCA before market finally reverses.
Reversal is inevitable thats why it's really important that you should really make yourself do take risk if you do intend to take some step on this bear market or would wait even more further since you do believe that it might plunge even way more lower.

There's no assurance though but people who do take risk are the ones who would benefit out once this market reverses and the question will be always on when?

@ 5. Play with Real Money. To make money, bet real money.
@ 6. Play Slots.

LOL wtf am i reading?
In general, in the rest of the tips there is a small grain of truth or something worth thinking about, then these tips are frankly dangerous. I would say that this article is unlikely to convince someone smart/experienced to start gambling, but I'm sure that some newbie can be misled by these tips and learn a bitter lesson (that you can not trust other people's advice, but think with your head). If I were you, I would be more careful with the dissemination of such information.

You are right on these two points it has nothing to do with tips on how to win, playing slots is one of the hardest luck-based games I've played, and even employing the best tips on playing slots is not a guarantee that you can win here the author for a lack of something to add more on his so-called tips to win gambling have added questionable tips, its better to enjoy playing and if you're positive you can invite luck and win.
Not really a tip I would say but rather a typical thing that someone would do when they do gamble.Slots is one of the highest HE that a gambling game type could have and there's no way on bestig these things and milking out to make profits which we know that it is impossible.Winning is something talks about getting your goalnot by means on making money but rather talking about enjoyment and entertainment that you could get from gambling.

Just yo raise some discussion, could this be a psychological related issues or is just a normal thing?
Also, have you come across such persons and what was your expression?
Depends on a certain person because there are really people whose mindsets are already fixed and can't really be changed yet we know that losing is never been enjoying or entertaining or could make you happy.Getting stressed converted to leisure won't be something simple to be done yet you would really be needing that kind of mind which is already fixed in terms of impression towards gambling.I don't see for any abnormalities about this kind of condition yet people do really have this kind of behavior if they are really sticking into their principles and impressions towards something.
2597  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is this the end for NFTs? on: June 18, 2022, 07:07:19 PM
From your point, NFT buyers can be two kind of people:
Real people want to buy the thing because of greed, thought they could sell it back to other at higher price.
Fake people exist to create a fake demand for NFT, to lure in real people so they can sell their overpriced, worthless NFT.
Truly, the worse kind of scheme exists to pump and dump their stuff since exchange at least provides a form of liquidation and real trade volume if that exchange is reputation enough. This is not the same for NFT cause they value it on the rare, only 1 of the kind bullcrap.
But in fact, we see that is no longer applicable in the market. In other words, NFT will only confuse you to resell it. At least set the lowest price because your purchases have dropped and anyone would avoid such NFT schemes. Nothing looks promising other than the NFT that the artists have. And our role is difficult to reach sales promotion even when the Hype is peaking.
One of the most common mistake of someone is to believe that they could make easy money with just those simple artworks and styles and that's why we've been flooded by hundred thousands of it and turns out that this is something which isn't that worth anymore when it comes on making it as an investment or for long term holds.They do know that they could potentially make money if ever it gets hyped or there sudden interest of the art but as expected on where trends do really have an endline or being over which means never make yourself comfortable on everything you do encounter as an investor.
2598  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Japanese man gambled away a huge Covid-19 relief funds mistakenly sent to him on: June 18, 2022, 05:20:54 PM

now, I have a question, do you think the man is entirely at fault or someone should also be responsible?

Sounds like he knew something was wrong, because why did he make the same size withdrawals and gambled it all away in a few weeks? If he is addicted to gambling and has no more control over his finances than it's understandable, otherwise I think it's wrong. If I would ever get a large bank transfer by mistake I would never think about starting to gamble with it heavily. Even if the law wouldn't be clear on that and there could be a chance that I can keep the money. What if the money was send by mistake by some criminals and they find out my name and adress? I am sure they wouldn't be so understanding and accept an apology. And what if the judge orders him to repay all the money, including the one he has lost? It could ruin him financially forever.


If you are someone who doesn't really like to get involved with some possible risk of getting yourself fucked up on the future then it's just sensible that you shouldn't spend the money which aren't yours so that you won't really be having problems later on because even if you do put up into your mind that it isn't your fault but still you would really be finding yourself in big trouble on spending money or funds which aren yours.

You aren't that dumb that it wasn't wrong in the first place because who would be the one on expecting to get big cash or funds directly into his account without any possible source?

How do I feel OP?
At first, I was been like in doom see my wallet lower its value. It is certainly a little bit hard to accept that thing but
somehow, we need to do it as we can't do anything about it aside from accepting the reality. Of course, I'd never sell my coins, but I do hold coz I believe that this situation will be getting over soon.

Despite this unpredictable change, I realized that it was really a need for everyone to be prepared. Putting money in crypto has no assurance and if we let our emotions decide for us, it certainly will bring us losses.
There's no assurance thats why its really that always recommended that you shouldnt make yourself to be that hopeful on becoming rich or generate huge profits or income in crypto space.

Well, we are just humans and its normal that we do have that kind of intent but always manage out good risk management because nothing is assured into this market.

Whether you could earn much or would lose much thats why earning and investing on the money which you can afford to lose will always be the key.

Campaign that has their pay in USD, their participants will benefits more in this bear market  where Bitcoin had fallen to $22K within the period of 3 days now. It will be a hard time to those campaign participants that are paid in Bitcoin rate. The worth of the Bitcoin in US dollar will fall drastically because of the current price of Bitcoin. It will mostly affect escrowed payment in Bitcoin and the campaign manager will have a tough time where distributing payment.

Managers would just simply request if ever the team had give out the overall payment or budget and its up to the team whether they would compensate or would simply stop the campaign.
Most of the campaigns that we do have today do always vary in USD value which means even if drops then the amount of bitcoins or altcoins would simply adjust which means on a dumping
market then the coins would be earned would be more.

So i dont see any difference or for people who do join up campaign to be worried unless if their campaign do pay satoshi/post then it would really
be a great effect into this current market condition.
