May iba pang paraan para sa bagong outfit para makakuha nung ticket or cash lang talaga? Grabe sa ganda.
Kung bibilhin lahat thru cash $50. Rawr.

Ipon Gold, benta thru cash tapos bilhin ung outfit. Mindset, mindset Cheesy.

Sa totoo lang, natetempt akong bilhin ung outfit dahil sobrang ganya niya. Ayoko namang gumastos ng ganyan kalaki para lang sa outfit. Minsan nga iniisip ko na lang na magtitiis na lang ako sa default outfit or dun sa 400 gold.

Pelicans ready for a deep run this season ? I hope so...because the hype around this team floats in the air for some years now and we haven't saw anything great from them so far.

They are more confident now, you can tell with the way they played, they didn't get intimated by the Nets although that team was a good team having Durant and Irving. With a healthy Zion, I think they will be a tough team to crack as they can attack inside and they have the height to grab that offensive rebounds if they'll miss. Just imagine, Zion using his body to get inside and they also have a Ingram who is a great perimeter shooter.
That's why I said in my previous post that the Pelicans are the "dark horse" right now in the NBA.
They are the team to watch with as they are packed with talented and efficient players.

A big three of Zion, Ingram and a veteran McCollum, a legit big in Valanciunas and Hayes as their 2nd option, a defensive player like Jones and very good bench players. Just by looking how they played against the Nets on their first game is already a sign that we might see them performing even better than the previous season. If they will not get injured, they might end up in the top 4 of the West. Might be too high but that's my expectations with them.

2017 is the year where Bitcoin went up massively and then the year after that, it went down massively causing investors to lose huge amount of money. I call 2018 the "year of hell".

2021 is also the year where Bitcoin reached its new ATH of around $69,000. Now year 2022, we are again in a bear market. See the cycle? It's the 4-year cycle and I believe that it is happening again, and it will happen in the years 2025 and 2026. Now to answer your question, yes, I believe that Bitcoin will repeat history but let's not remove the fact that it might not happen as well but just looking at the history, we can see that history repeat's itself.

Where do you see Bitcoin in coming 2023,
It's either it will remain sideways at the range that where it is right now or worse, it might go even lower. No signs of it going up right now as the whole world is suffering from very high inflation.

1) Do you believe it will be at approx. same price or will it go up or down, its better if u share some insights in support of your opinion

2) Do you think due to Bitcoin , the other altcoins may lose its charm , and go nearly dead, such as BCH ..

3) Do you believe only the mass Bitcoin Adoption by more countries can bring a bull market..

4) Do u Think it has something to do with global Inflation, where even stock market is on ventilators..
1. When Bull run starts, it will always surpass the old ATH so I expect a new ATH when the bull run starts.
2. It wasn't Bitcoin that is the reason why some altcoins are dead right now. It's the community of the coin because some projects lose its community for some reasons, but the most common reasons are either it was hacked, or the trust is gone.
3. It might contribute, but that isn't only the reason. I still believe in cycles and that is also the reason why crypto goes into bull market.
4. Yes, it is. Stocks, Bonds, Crypto, Real Estate. All of the assets are down right now and there is no sign that it will reverse so I expect the same situation until 2023.

Lately it seems that Pi network is growing day by day.  Who can touch Bitcoin on the Pi network?  Many say that the Pi Network will overtake Bitcoin.  I had a bit of a laugh when I heard about the Bitcoin leak.  Bitcoin is the number one coin in cryptocurrency.  I don't think comparing any coin to Bitcoin is anything but silly.  But what is your opinion?  If anyone has an idea about pi network, please let me know.
Threads regarding Pi Network always pop if not weekly, monthly. Growing day by day? You're joking right?

I also always see posts in Facebook regarding Pi Network and just a few days ago, I saw a post regarding him and CZ of Binance, and he added Pi Network to the caption saying that you must bought Pi Network now that he and CZ got a picture already. That poster has a shirt with the logo of Pi as well. I mean WTF!! Is this how desperate the Pi Network supporters now.

One of the most laughable phrases that I always heard is that "Coin X will overcome Bitcoin" blah blah blah. When I always hear this, I immediately reject that project and will not make research of it. I mean for how many years, there are many altcoins saying that they will overcome Bitcoin, but no one can ever do it. My idea about Pi Network? It's a project that I will not touch even though it has a large community of stupid investors.

The game between Meralco and Phoenix, it was Phoenix who are controlling the game so far.
~
The Phoenix win against the Meralco 89-82.
To sum it up, NLEX also won against their sister team, TNT.

I will not be surprised if Meralco will change imports right now because it seems like O'Bryant is not that efficient. He only got 7 points and 16 rebounds in 46 minutes of playing and only 2/17 shooting. For an import, it's an awful performance and for sure many fans will agree with that. Now the Meralco are at the bottom of the standings right now and if I'm Coach Norman Black, I'll be thinking of replacing O'Bryant and find another import.

Just be mindful since anything can happen just like how bossing upset SMB, who knows, maybe the next thing we see it's DYIP time to upset a super team..
I still remember how Blackwater got their first win after 29 game losing streak. It was against Magnolia on their last game as well in that conference and they won by just a point.

Anything can happen in basketball. Who would've thought that Ginebra lost twice against independent teams right now. Who would've thought that Blackwater will win against SMB. I mean let's expect the unexpected like how crypto is moving Cheesy. I just hope that TerraFirma will at least get one win this conference and not break the losing streak of BlackWater.
2627  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: October 20, 2022, 05:24:07 AM
Brooklyn Nets were blown out by the New Orleans Pelicans. 108-130
Ben Simmons 4/5/5 stats. Ergh! I am expecting more in the rebounding and assist section.
And he got fouled out playing only 23 minutes.
Overall, I don't want to judge him based on one game. Maybe he only has a bad night in his debut game after not playing for more than a year. Let's see how he will play after maybe 3-5 games but TBH, the thing that I didn't expect from him is to get fouled by playing only 23 minutes.

For me, the Pelicans are the "dark horse" team right now.
They played well last season against the Suns but fell short. Take note that it's the number 1 seed and they gave them a hard fight and that is without Zion as well. Now they got him aside from Ingram and McCollum who will help the team. This is the team to watch out I guess and the Hawks as well.
2628  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: October 19, 2022, 03:15:49 AM
Terrafirma Dyip looks like the new Bossing BlackWater. They seem to have no intention and plans of winning and will be bashed continuously as a farm team.
Well, honestly, I like the energy of their import, Lester Prosper. The guy is very much active on social media and trying to learn more tagalog words as he tries to increase his followers.
The current losing streak of TerraFirma is 25 and the longest is 29 by Blackwater bossing.

The next 3 games of TerraFirma are against Bay Area, Ginebra and TNT. I'm pretty sure that they will not win against Bay Area (and many will agree with me). TNT? I don't think so as well, but they might against Ginebra who lost twice against ROS and Phoenix which are both independent teams but if they lose, the streak will continue, and it will be 28 after that.

After that, it will be NorthPort, NLEX, SMB and their final game is against Phoenix. TBH, it's hard to imagine which team where TerraFirma has a chance to win after how they are playing this conference. Yes, Prosper is a legit import but the problem is the local players. There is lack of support coming from them even though Prosper is getting at least 20-20 per game. I agree with you that it's good to see a foreigner like him trying to learn Tagalog words and supporting other players like Kai Sotto. I might watch his video if he will try to eat some exotic PH foods like "balut" for example Cheesy.

76ers/Warriors for the bettors. Smiley
If you bet on the 76ers, you lose because the Celtics won by 9 points.
Tatum and Brown scored both 35 points while the trio of Harden, Embiid and Maxey scored 35, 26 and 21 respectively.

I did a quick look on the NBA website, and I saw that all of 76er's starters played at least 33 minutes. I don't know if it's just me, but Coach Doc didn't utilize those bench players that much in this game. Joe Mazulla now got his first win as a head coach and it's a good start for them.

Still waiting for GSW-Lakers. I just hope that Westbrook will not get any bash after this game Cheesy.

Next project to kill Chainlink and IC for ecample is ModeFi. And you can make x1000.
~
I wanted to read the whole thread that you've created but when I saw the name of the project and the OP who did this thread. I didn't continue reading it.
After all, you are just spitting some words but the whole point of this thread is to promote that project ModeFi. X1000? It might be and it might be not.

To answer your question, those investors who bought Bitcoin in 2018 and sold at near its peak can be considered millionaires right now depending on how much they've invested. Those who bought Ethereum are now millionaires depending on the money they've invested. Point is, it all depends on different factors but saying that is irrelevant and a complete mistake. I'm only buying coins at the top 50 right now and sure it will take longer time to profit but it's safer compared to investing into a new project that yes it can give you X100 or X1000, but at the same time can make your money *poof* in an instant.

Kamusta na yung mga player dito ng axie may nag lalaro paba at paldo padin ba kitaan or just stress to play nalang nangyayari because with the market crash?. If profitable padin ba sya laruin guys kasi dati oo eh ngayon nag benta nako ng mga axie ko and i dont know if still ideal padin ba mag laro ng axie pero if oo naman anyone can suggest the new meta of the game?.
Profits wise, hindi malaki ang kitaan compare sa gagastusin mo para sa mga runes and charms pero kapag swerte ka sa crafting, pwede ka pa ring kumita. Compare naman sa V2, mas stressful pa rin ung V2 para sa akin dahil sa mga Critical Strikes na yan Cheesy. Regarding sa paglalaro, base sa napanood kong video sa Facebook, nasa around 700K+ pa rin ang naglalaro.

Nakapaglaro ako ng Season 0 pero di ako nasa top 1000 at hindi ganun kalaki ung nakuha kong AXS compare sa nagastos ko sa runes and charms pero overall, may profit pa rin di nga lang ganun kalaki. Ngayon sa tanong na kung profitable pa rin ba or hindi, yes if mataas ang ranks mo sa leaderboards after ng season. Para sa akin, parang more on Pay2Win na ung laro pero ang kaibahan lang sa mga traditional games ngayon na Pay2Win ay meron kang reward in the form of AXS.

Ideal pa rin maglaro ng Axie ngayon para sa akin pero kung maglalaro ka lang for fun, unless gusto mo ung gameplay walang problema pero mas maraming pang games jan na mas enjoyable kaysa sa axie.

2022 is going to be the worst year for crypto investors. Any thoughts guys?
It might be for some especially to those who are newbies, ignorant investors and those who are always following the herd, but for some, they see this as an opportunity for them.
You see the year 2022 as the worst year for crypto investors? I see 2022 as a perfect opportunity to invest. Opportunities like this only come one every 4 years base on the cycle.

As you see, there is a 4-year cycle when it comes to the price movement of cryptocurrency, and we've seen 2018 and 2022 as a year where bear market started. In the next years, it will recover and those who bought this year will be the ones who will earn more money than those who waited longer before they buy. This year is only bad for those investors who bought at the peak and didn't sell their tokens and for those who panicked and sold at a loss.
2633  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: October 18, 2022, 02:56:53 AM
Will they meet again? Sorry for asking but I don't know if the guest team is qualified to be the champion at this conference.
In one article that has been posted by Rappler (even though I hate them for how bias they are), Kume Marcial already said that:
Quote
Marcial said Bay Area will be eligible to win the Governors’ Cup championship.
The one thing that the Dragons are ineligible are the individual awards, I guess.

I'm a bit disappointed with the Beermen, but yeah, without JMF they will have a hard time winning games. I thought that it's going to be close but they were blown away by the Bay Area Dragons.

And it just shows the JMF is still the heart and soul of the team, without him, they will be struggling. The good news is that he might be back before playoff but they still need to win some games without JMF.

A bit disappointed but at the same time, they have been exposed by the Dragons.

I don't want to judge just because of one game but it only shows that not having Fajardo playing have a huge impact towards the performance of the whole team. Now with Stone being replaced by a new import, Scott, I don't know how will the Beermen play on their next game because aside from JMF not playing, the chemistry might be affected because of this new import but nevertheless, it's a good move by them because Stone didn't play well on their last game though he played well in the last 2.

Adjustments will be made by the Beermen that's for sure. Coach Leo is a very good coach, and he also has very good players. Now that Fajardo expects to come back in the playoffs, this might affect their standings in the elimination. I just hope that even though JMF will not play, they will end up in the top 4 spot.
2634  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Dogecoin to be used for micropayments on Twitter? on: October 18, 2022, 02:40:50 AM
Knowing that the billionaire is a huge fan of Dogecoin, it's possible he will integrate the cryptocurrency into the platform for micropayments (micro-tipping).
On one website, I saw what the use case of DOGE and this is one:
Quote
Perhaps one of the most initial use cases of Doge was as an online tipping coin. Using the coin, social media users could tip others for their content.
One of the use case of DOGE is for online tipping. Now, DOGE is a few steps away from reaching that use case with the help of Elon Musk. Now the only question is, will he really integrate crypto online tipping in Twitter if incase he will be the new owner of Twitter.

I'm wondering what effect will this have into DOGE's price if successfully implemented? Will DOGE be able to finally get past $1 per coin? Or will it never happen? Also, I fail to see how DOGE would be used massively on Twitter when the cryptocurrency doesn't have enough transaction capacity to serve millions of users around the world. There's no LN or on-chain scaling solution yet, so developers are going to have to work on something if they want DOGE to be widely adopted worldwide. What are your thoughts? Huh
There is a possibility.
Possibility that DOGE pump but I don't see it reaching to a dollar knowing that one feature of the coin is it has an unlimited amount of supply. TBH it's hard and I don't expect it to go 1$ but maybe with the help of Elon and Twitter, the impossible might be possible.
2635  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: October 18, 2022, 02:19:42 AM
So both Andrew Wiggins and Jordan Poole got 4-year deals in their new contracts. But Wiggins got only $109 million in his deal while Poole secured a $140 million contract. Wiggins though admitted that he is very happy at GSW so he was willing to take the pay cut in order to keep the team's core roster. Pretty sure Wiggins could've secured a more expensive contract than Poole following his solid performance last season. I'm just glad that he finally finds peace and happiness at GSW. He was once dubbed a failure after being drafted at pick 1. Jordan Poole on the other hand is now feeling better and is all in for the team this coming season. I wonder what's on Green's mind now? Green should be lucky enough to get a Wiggins-type deal because his numbers are decreasing and he is also becoming older to deserve long contracts.

I guess if we look at NBA's history in recent years, team owners would rather invest on young players. Just like in the case of Poole and Wiggins, they see the this 2 might be their future superstar and that it could bring them more championship, so it's a no brainer to offer them good contracts.

We can't read Green's mind but for sure, he either appreciate and very happy for the 2 or he just wish that the Warriors are going to offer him a good contract as well, so will see.
Now that the young players Poole and Wiggins' contracts are now extended, both Green and Klay are in the hot seat right now.
They still have a guaranteed one-year deal, but will the Warriors management try to extend it? That's a big question.

Let's forget the Poole-Green incident because they are in good terms already. Poole's contract is higher than Wiggins but nevertheless, seeing both of them having a 4-year contract with the GSW is already a good thing or maybe age does a big factor in this one.

I don't know if Green and Klay's contract will be extended, and it must've been hard for GM Bob Myers to make a decision knowing that both of them are a huge part of the past dynasty that gave them 3 titles. Let's just hope that they will be given at least 1–2-year contract maybe.

Take it as a constructive criticism and not on a negative way. That's the way for you to increase your rank.

You want to present your knowledge; you might want to make research as always. What I did when I was a newbie is I'm watching documentaries with regards to cryptocurrencies and Bitcoin in particular on YouTube. There are some ways for you to learn. There's information on the internet already and what you only need to do is to make a quick search.

I was not able to watch the game but it was really upsetting and very unlikely of Ginebra. Are we being played by these teams? Are they also betting on online casinos, and they choose to win big than win on the game.

Phoenix Fuelmasters just played well on that night. Not because it's Ginebra, they will automatically win the game. Don't underestimate the Phoenix and just because they win there's already magic done on that game. The Phoenix rookie even destroys the momentum of Justin Brownlee.

Brownlee is seen first time getting frustrated when someone is defending him. That Phoenix rookie did a good job on that.
As always, seeing either MVP or SMC team being defeated by an independent team makes me happy Smiley. Even the Bossing when they defeated the SMB, I was quite happy even though I'm a SMB fan because it shows that in this unbalanced league, there are still independent/farm teams that are still winning against these giant companies.

Fuelmasters have underrated players that they can developed and help the team. Tio, the second pick Serrano and even those veterans like Anthony, Azul and also Mocon who has 4 20+ point games already in this conference. The sad part only is the team will be sold soon.

The Ginebra already lost twice to independent teams and congratulations to the Phoenix as they already beat NLEX (MVP team) and Ginebra (SMC team).

Breaking news about Jason Castro, he signed a three-year contract extension for TNT.
(https://www.spin.ph/basketball/pba/jayson-castro-signs-three-year-tnt-extension-through-2025-a1374-20221013)
He deserves it and probably he's seeing himself retiring for TNT and hopefully TNT will give him another opportunity after that, if ever he decides to retire.
Well-deserved contract extension after how he played in the PBA Finals despite of having an injury.
I mean he is the captain of the TNT, and he is like the centerpiece of the team. Without him, the team will be completely different.

I guess he will retire as a TNT player. He will be 39 years old after the contract and maybe he can still play one more year after retiring or he might be given a contract but now under the coaching staff. Who knows but I still see him as a good player still until now. I just hope that in these 3 years, he will get another title.
2640  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is It An Easy Transition From Gamer To Gambler In Casino. on: October 14, 2022, 03:48:27 AM
I always consider gaming as gambling I have seen many gamblers spend a lot of money for their character and to level up their account for future profit, like selling their stuff and their character.
That isn't the case for some including me.

I already played many games and spent money on all of it especially the one that I last played before the game that I'm playing right now. I'm spending money into it but in the end, I couldn't get anything in return because I didn't sell my account just for the reason of, I'm using my personal Gmail into it, and I can't give it to the buyer. I didn't get any profit into it. We have different perspective with regards to the 2 because I don't see gaming as gambling. Maybe in those Gacha games you can say but, in some games, it doesn't.

If you're a gamer or someone is a gamer and would like to try to gamble in online casinos will it become an easy transition as all the elements of gambling are present when you're a gamer, or does a gamer have to start all over again, and have a different motivation and mindset?
There are certain things that you can learn when you are playing online games for quite some time that can be applied into gambling. I don't know the exact things but for sure, there are strategies and techniques that a gamer can apply when they are gambling, so I guess it's not that hard to make a transition IMO.
