I'd find it necessary as we know that our kids have been already exposed to social media and online activities. It was very important to have at least some knowledge about cyber security in order to protect themselves. But what we need is gradual teaching and of course, some limitations such as putting stress on their mind make it useless and probably it never works.

And maybe having this as a part of the discussion in school helps them to understand and give more importance to why it is a need.

I am looking for new NFT project that has very good utility Do you have any project in mind that can be as good as APE NFT in future? What new NFT project you are presently into? Bored Ape Yacht NFT and other are just way too overpriced.
I follow new project which has really nice features and also their media coverage is growing every day, btw its p2e nft "reptile chronicles" im more than sure that you heard about it, but im so obsessed with their arts and novel, tbh its the best one nft which I know
Wish you, good luck mate.
Probably I wasn't really obsessed about NFT that is why I mostly ignored them because of my bad experience with them. If you see this project worth it, why not? It is a matter of choice and our assessment, I can't judge this either as I don't know more about the project. Since you've done the research and assessment, then that's it. All I can say is that "don't put a huge amount of money in them as they are not really a good investment". Coz even though we think they are good but look, they are too many projects that have a good market view, however, they lose their value in the long run.

I won't disagree with the intention to educate them early but I think we shouldn't have to urge them to do this but instead, give them time to take responsibility when they are ready enough to handle things like this. Because for me, I'd rather make them enjoy themselves playing around and their childhood days as these things about security and cyber education is a serious matter which is highly recommended for young adults at least, not these kids.

Honestly, we are putting more pressure on them.

The NBA finals this year are going to be very interesting. I admit that it's hard for me to name a favorite. The greatest strength of the Warriors is the offensive. When they have their day, they can destroy any rival. Experience will also be their advantage. This is the sixth Warriors Final in the last eight seasons. Boston is a team that has undergone a huge metamorphosis over the course of the season. They are very strong on defense. I think the fate of the finals will depend mainly on the young stars of Boston, Tatum and Brown. If young leaders bear the pressure, Boston stands a chance of regaining the championship after 14 years.
People are hyping the Celtics a lot but in reality, Warriors are actually the team that has a huge chance to win here. They are not new to the NBA Finals, and their chemistry is really superb, I'm sorry but it looks like Warriors are gonna smart the Celtics in game 1 to make a statement that Celtics are not yet a championshp caliber team.
That's your personal opinion only, Celtics are also a good team, the reason why they are in the NBA Finals. However, in terms of expereince, the Warriors have the advantage and since Curry is the greatest shooter in the history of NBA, Celtics has to do a great job on him so their chance to win will improve.

If Curry could score 25+ points per game, that means Warriors will dominate but if Celtics could limit the Warriors by less than 100 points, that means their defense are effective.
2625  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season - Finals on: June 02, 2022, 01:00:13 PM
But it might be different here as they have a great center as well in Horford and Williams. But it doesn't matter as the Warriors will surely adjust again.
Warriors also have a great center, Looney is just so underrated but this guy had some pretty double double in the last series or the WCF. They are a team that are good in making the adjustment, so I don't think they'll have some trouble with the defense of the Celtics or even on their advantage in the center position.

Yeah Looney is strong if he keeps a cool minded head. He was early exit in there games with Grizzlies due to his foul trouble a lot of error. Sometimes he is not giving a great performance that same with what he show us on the last match against Mavs.

Boston has good center too like Al Horford and Theis which is a good match up against warriors. I think Boston can overwhelm warriors if they can use there big man properly.

They also have Williams who are a great shot defender, however, as a team, the Warriors have more weapons compared to the Celtics. I am not saying that the Warriors will have an easy job in the NBA Finals, but I believe they will win in the series.

Can't wait, this game will start tomorrow at 9:00 AM in the morning, so I will not miss the chance to put my bet.

Do we need to wait more 1- 2 years then buy alts now before right before bull market kick in?
Not necessarily do we need to wait for the market and the altcoins to start their recovery before going to invest but instead, take this current situation as an opportunity. Only you need is to choose coins wisely and that must be on the top listed coins according to the CMC ranking. As they are at the top we know that these coins have a huge potential to recover, unlike those on the bottom ranks. But, of course, after accumulating some of these coins, we also have to learn how to hold them as we really be needing them knowing that they won't rise instantly nor it does after we buy them.
2627  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The Legendary Forumla of Dip = Opportunity on: June 01, 2022, 09:48:25 PM
Haha this is so true and I can relate to some of the points mentioned in the OP

When the price is down we are always telling ourselves that no matter what, I am going to buy when a dip happens. But once the price starts to drop the confidence is gone and we actually find it hard to hold onto the assets we have rather than buying Bitcoins or any other coins.

This is never going to change no matter how much experience or self-confidence you have because when the price drops, the market has a negative sentiment. You will not find many positive articles and the tweets all over Twitter are also negative.
The mindset of some people had changed as the market trend changed as well. That is why we heard a lot being negative during the bear season and then turning optimistic during the bull market. And this is because we have been influenced by our emotions and mind. And the more got to check the market, and listen to/read the news and social media discussion, the more we lose our confidence.

That I suggest to everyone to keep positive despite the market dip and corrections. We have been tested for such things several times and I think it was enough to still believe in the bright future of the market.
2628  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: June 01, 2022, 01:02:05 PM

Yeah, something like that. Or the Celtics steal one at Chaste Center, win both at TD Garden, and end it at Chaste. Ouch! Just kidding.  Cheesy
I just took it while the profit was fat. Because once GSW won one game that may change substantially downward. It's just a prediction and I am not saying it will happen accurately as the Celtics are not to be underestimated.

That's still possible, however, I would trust the record of the Warriors in the finals appearance, they have more wins than losses and the last time I remember they lose in the Finals was against the Cavaliers in game 7, so no way they'll be lose by 4-1 record.
2629  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA Finals 2022 - Warriors vs Celtics. on: June 01, 2022, 12:41:12 PM
This is just more on opinion but I think the Celtics roster is an underdog team and not the heavy favorite to win the series and that's what I like, the underdogs that may thrive until they do their hardest. Play will tell on who will won this year but rooting for the Celtics new generation to win it and hoping to all players that no worst thing may happen.
This is what I'm thinking too and typically those underdogs that beat all the odds to be on the finals manage to take down a strong opponent. I watch many Boston Celtics games in the past and I like there performance during there match against Bucks and Heat which shows how resilient they are when facing strong enemy.  They have a good chance to defeat GSW if they maintain the same level of performance to counter GSW aggression. We witnessed already how GSW choke in the past if there splash brother didn't have a good shooting accuracy. This might occur when Boston tighten there security against this heavy scorer team.
But someone could argue since there's no team that can compare to GSW in the Eastern Conference, with that kind of offense they have. It will be a huge feat for them to beat someone like Warrior that can shoot every corner of the court, a healthy Warrior roster is a disaster for them.

This will be a big challenge for Boston since if they can able to win with this current healthy GSW line up for sure this is the most sweeties victory they might get for their franchise but I don't think that might happen knowing that there are so many options for Warriors if we talk about offensive settings also they have people who can also be dangerous on defensive end so It's more exciting to see the game 1 of this series since this will might be the little indicator for the audience if Boston can able to survive on Finals.

They are already here in the NBA Finals, so it's really their big chance to prove that they are the better team than the Warriors, and winning the championship will be a big success for Tatum and Brown who are still very young. I like to see them fighting on the challenge, they are the underdog, so they have to play harder to defeat the Warriors on the road.
2630  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Learning from the dip on: May 31, 2022, 10:36:27 PM
I bought some coin recently believing I’m buying from the dip but to my surprise this just keep dipping. MY DIP HAS TURNED TO THE DIPPER, EVEN THE DIPPEST.


That really be surprised if you are expecting a rise and market profit after buying. I'd hear many complaints like this but as to know that during this bear season, we can't really be expecting that. We are supposed to think that there are only two possible things that happen after buying and that is whether the price dump or pump.

 - if we know how to hold, that is not a problem provided that we just acquire potential coins
 - we need to exercise our patience, something are really be needed during the bear season
2631  Economy / Speculation / Re: Sideways huh! on: May 31, 2022, 10:12:22 PM
So $25k-$30 will likely be the range, of course we wanted to see we maintain the upper bound of $30k'ish but we will see.
At least in the last 7 days, bitcoin more than 8%, so that's a significant increased already and the upper bound that you mentioned has been over come. We are now back to $32k, so if anyone has bought it when the price is trading sideways, this could be a great time to check your portfolio and see some growth. So this June might be different, but we shouldn't celebrate yet. Let us wait if we can break into $35k. That will be a huge accomplishment and at least short term the price has rebounded and maybe we can forgot about the Luna effect.
We're still moving in the sideways, that is what I see. We got a few pumps but look, the price of Bitcoin just then is about to dump. The market as a whole is still living in uncertainty, with no definite direction to see. But, I think it was not a big problem, we can hold anyway of the situation is about to continue (that really be sure).

Well, it is just to hope that this June give shows some significant changes but still we can't be sure of that since we never hear any news that could affect and give impact on the market trend.

So what Ravena is trying to do here?

Is he playing safe but in the end will put NLEX hanging when he got his contract renewed?
I don't like that, he was thinking that he is a valuable piece of superstar and that the team would go after him, maybe as a sign of respect, he must make his decision final before reaching out the NLEX.

As far as my knowledge about that is concerned, Kiefer Ravena can manage to play at the "whole" PBA All-Filipino Cup Conference that's why even though there's a new contract offered to him in Japan B-league, he can still help NLEX this upcoming conference on their rally. NLEX has no choice though as they are not even active in the trading market if there's a possibility to totally trade Ravena. Even Coach Yeng is interested in keeping him for the team.

We can call it disrespectful if, in the middle of the conference, he left out for the team just to accept the new offer to play in Japan.

Yeah, sounds special, and seems K. Ravena is overrated to me but that's what the agreement they have signed up.

Ravena is really overrated, he has the talent but he is not the type of player that could carry the team in the Finals. NLEX is still not a championship team even with Ravena playing, that's the reality, so maybe they'll improve a bit but they'll never be in the Finals.
2633  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season - Finals on: May 31, 2022, 11:29:40 AM
The Celtics are in the NBA finals after 12 years. Wonderful. Good Job Celtics and Good luck in the finals. Such a slow start to the season and outa no where they became number two seed, and easily had the hardest playoff schedule. All respects to them. I love all the players in both the Celtics and Warriors but I'm rooting for the Celtics because I want to see the two Jays get their ring.

Good luck, but I don't think it will easily happen. It's their first time in the NBA Finals, so I will go with the team which has the best experience already. Celtics are good, but Warriors are a championship-caliber team, they will take the challenge and will always play like they usually do.

They move the ball and find the open shooters, easy strategy but very effective.
2634  Economy / Speculation / Re: Reason why I put all my money in Bitcoin as a newbie on: May 30, 2022, 10:10:12 PM
Am still new in this space both in cryptocurrency and in this forum and seeing what is happening even to stable coins lately make me decide to put all my investment funds into Bitcoin since Bitcoin has never crashed
Never crashed? In fact, this is what we see nowadays, we are in a market crash situation where the entire market is affected including Bitcoin.

If you think that Bitcoin is immune to this, you can be wrong and I will advise you not to focus on Bitcoin investment alone but rather to split it. There are a lot of investment opportunities in your local (that are surely possible), you can invest them as well to back up your Bitcoin investment as this was a smart and wise idea.
2635  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA Finals 2022 - Warriors vs Celtics. on: May 30, 2022, 03:40:36 PM
Lets discuss game 1.

Current point spread now is -3.5 for the Warriors, they are playing at home and have never lost a single game. I think it's an easy call, even if they are the public play, I still think they'll win this game.

Also, the total is only 211, over is easy here, hopefully not a trap.

It should be an easy win by the goldenstate Warriors at home but Boston Celitcs have already won several times at away games in the playoff series so i wouldnt be surprised much if they won again.
This is game 1, Celtics has not won a game 1 on the road IIRC, and the Warriors has never lost a game at home.
I will stick with what I believe, I understand that Celtics are a good team but I'd go with the trend until it gets broken.

Also that line for over/under will be rough. Celtics are good at defence while Warriors are deadly in attack
Yeah, but even in the series of Boston/Heat, in 7 games, the result was 4 overs and 3 unders.

2637  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: should I be concerned about the history of bitcoins when buying them ? on: May 29, 2022, 10:24:20 PM
If I purchase bitcoins via p2p, can I get some problems if the bitcoins I get were involved in some criminal activity ? If yes then how do I avoid such situation ?
The best way to avoid such issues is to buy bitcoin from an exchange rather than buying it from or through peer to peer, For so many years I have bought my bitcoin from an exchange that is decentralized without any issues but with exchanges going centralized this causes a major confusion, but regardless the issue of who should be added to the rebuilding and the rescue show be selected evenly
Well, if we talk about the safe place to buy Bitcoin, the use of exchange is highly advisable compared to P2P transactions. However, even if we do P2P transactions, nothing will know it was illegal and simply it can be denied by the seller that it was coming from illegal and much more if they use mixing services.

But yes, as for the comfort and to give peace of mind to OP, it was secure and to have unquestionable transactions if they use an exchange.
2638  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What happened to XMR and other privacy coins on: May 29, 2022, 09:52:24 PM
The less performing top alt to me is Monero, what the hell happened to all privacy coins out there? They dont surge as good as any other altcoins, are people not interested in privacy coins anymore? Or it's the world that doesn't need the idea.
Investors will likely ignore them and give no interest on those coins that won't give them profit. I don't wonder why this will happen, in fact, even in the past years, they don't make any hype that could gain attention.

Even for me, I'd rather invest in volatile coins even though the risk is too high knowing the fact that this becomes a reason why people make money from the market. Buy low and sell high...this is unlikely to happen in privacy coins.

I love Satoshi because he was a great mentor i have never see in the whole world, for building a great family like this, that will produce future president's of different countries and senators that will make this decentralized currency fully legalized in the whole world.
Satoshi did nothing to you nor did he/she teaches you how to trade. You'd rather say thank you for your bad experience as in that way you had learned and acquired someone who will teach and guide you on the right path.

I was just amazed by your optimism and strong personality to carry over those huge losses and still have the courage to continue trading as it happened to me, I certainly quit.

If you have anything to contribute, please do so. Let us assist one another.
It was being said that once you don't clearly understand what you are doing, you'll just end up nothing.
Investing comes with a certain preparation;
 - money as for capital ( borrowed or personal money)
 - knowledge and skill ( includes strategies)
 - time
 - gameplan

A failure to acquire these things will never succeed. I haven't found a perfect way to do trading but what I've mentioned above will certainly help to avoid big losses.
