2621  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: TRX to $1? on: October 02, 2021, 07:27:03 PM
Most of the investor think that Tron is one of the projects that is quite potential but they are not satisfied with the development on it for this reason many of us think that $1 usd is very difficult for Tron. But recently we get a warming news form tron that is VanEck, the global investment manager, outlined earlier this week that it had three new ETNs launched on Germany’s Xetra exchange among them one is TRON. Justin Sun also express that TRX ETN continues to be favored and supported by the global mainstream market. I think it’s great news form Tron and we will see the $1 or $2 shortly.

Tron development is ongoing very nicely, I like the Tron project. I also support what Justin sun doing for the TRON project. There are tons of updates available on the official Twitter page of TRON. I am a bag holder of Tron coin, Bought at the dipping price. I am just waiting for the ATH price. I know Tron's price will raise more. But I will be very happy if it just hit the previous all-time high range price.
I don't know why people hate this project, also they called there is no development! but I see a lot of development and the user of Tron and transaction also increasing day by day. It's a good sign for the Tron blockcahin. My long-term target is $1 per ton. So why I am buying in every dip and storing in my personal wallet.
it's clear that people's beliefs can't be anyone to intervene, neither is your belief in tron. I also admit that they have tried to develop well and many ways have been done but it doesn't seem that there are many investors who are interested in investing in it.

indeed ATH $0.231673 - Jan 05, 2018 has been going on for quite a while and after that the movement was quite down and stable below $0.05 for quite a long time, but in April 2021 it rose to $0.15 and fell again after bitcoin experienced a decline.

there is still a chance for tron to increase by the end of this year if indeed bitcoin will reach renewable ATH, because all altcoins that are still developing will be affected by the increase.

It's a chance but there's no assurance that TRX will reach a new ATH again if that will happen since bitcoin has already reached an ATH this year and yet TRX still struggles to break its current ATH which was achieved over 3 years ago. The more the market will be bullish, the more chances TRX will rise, and if the time will come it will break its current ATH, the probably it will boost the confidence of the investors.
2622  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Most Bullish Altcoin of the moment on: October 02, 2021, 02:17:41 PM
but there is a difference with last year's bulls, namely some coins go up alternately and not simultaneously, whether from now onwards this cycle will continue to occur or will it continue to change.
The bull run last year started in the past quarter of the year and it continues until this year, but, we cannot expect a bull run all throughout the year as it does not happen in the crypto space, correction always happen every time there's a bull run and that correction I'm saying was not seen yet.

This year, a big correction is likely to occur than a new bull run, that's my prediction.
Every bullrun and after it there will definitely be a correction, this has often been repeated several times in large or small bullruns, but corrections will definitely exist, but the altcoin season is always unable to differentiate from the previous year and now we are more inclined to follow the current trend where altcoins can become bullish at the beginning and after that altcoins will keep trying to rise but what I think now is that this year is much more bullish, what I hold of past tokens is much better than now.
We will never know if this year is more bullish compared to last year's bull market.

The year is not over yet, and we know that in crypto, even in just a very short period of time, things could change abruptly like bitcoin gonna dump 50% in a week. We just have to be more open with that kind of scenario and it happened in the past and therefore it would probably happen again, at least we prepare our strategy to make the right decision.

In addition, Coach Vogel said AD will only play in the first quarter. On the other hand, it's not certain as well whether the Nets big 3 will play more minutes in the pre season.

Maybe that was just what Vogel said but in the actual game, there will be changes.

That was different last year where the Lakers all starters played good minutes against the Phoenix Suns. Anthony Davis and Lebron James combined for 55 points for 30 mins and 25 mins of playing time respectively.

But even with limited minutes for Lakers and Nets superstars, still interested to watch as these 2 teams are again the favorites to win the championship for the upcoming season. What's the news for Irving by the way? I doubt we will see him in the pre-season games or even in the first weeks of the NBA season.

This is preseason, their presence is highly appreciated already as the fans understand they will not play harder as they might get injured. Seeing Davis in the full 1st quarter, that's more than a gift for the fans because we will again see Davis healthy again. I would still consider him very fragile, so hopefully, the Lakers coaching staff learn last season and put a minute restriction for Davis, or a load management type.

This young fighter will only learn once they experience getting KO.
Possible because they have the power to KO their opponent, so hopefully the promoter will put a rematch clause as it's good to watch two fighters who are willing to give everything just to make the fight interesting.
They are not champions like Wilder and Fury, so most likely there's no rematch clause in this fight, but depending on what they will show in the ring, if the fight ended in a controversial manner, then probably the promoter could set up a rematch if both fighters will agree on the terms.

Meralco should bounce back from a 1 point loss, it's their time now so they will not be eliminated.
In this conference Meralco was doing well, but NLEX is more remarkable as they improve even without Ravena.
I can still watch this game as it will start at 6:AM in our timezone, I also like to see how they will bounce back after a bad loss in the first game, and probably the game will still be low scoring game and Meralco will win, probably in single-digit only as NLEX is also doing well.

This is what you called "bigayan" as NLEX is a sister team of Meralco if I'm not mistaken.

Yes, they are a sister team as NLEX is own by Pangilinan who is also the owner of Meralco. The odds is still -4.5, that's too high for a team that they previously beat in the previous game, so most likely the odds are telling that Meralco would win this by a decent margin.

There is a line movement, Meralco Bolts now is up to -5.5 (https://sportsbet.io/sports/basketball/philippines/pba-philippine-cup/matches).
bisdak40 was lucky he was able to bet on the -4.5 lower by one point.

Anyway, if Bolts would really bounce back, I guess they will play harder and will not allow NLEX to get close in this game as they don't want to get eliminated. Oftana will be a marked man in this game as he hits the game-winner last game.

Another win by bisdak40, congrats blue, you guess it right, Bolts have even the series, and they won by 11 points, which means the spread is covered and you win. However, I think some of you here bet on the under which you might lose your bet as the total score is 183 which I'm sure the total (over/under) is lower than that.

Carmelo is already 37 years old. I doubt he has only 2 or 3 seasons at most left in his career if he still performs well enough. But it will be hard for him to get the minutes with the likes of really good players in the squad. Lakers already have Lebron and Anthony Davis in PF position, so Melo won't be getting the minutes as he used to get in the p[ast. But whenever he gets those minutes, he will convert them into scores and assists.
Second stringers usually play 20-25 minutes and it's not that bad. The Lakers need him as they lack shooters so he better make the most out of it.
There's also a chance this could be his last year if they will ever get a championship. All that's left will be CP3 in their circle of friends who will also push this season to grab the ring. The only good part is CP3 has a humongous long contract which means he can still try next year while Melo only signed 1 year for $2.5M.
Probably CP3 and his team will have a lot of challenges in this season, the teams are back healthy and teams like the Lakers and Nets had improve their lineup. honestly, I don't see them winning a championship with the same lineup, so I expect that CP3 will be traded after this season.

https://www.nba.com/news/report-nba-reaches-95-vaccination-rate-among-players
Report: NBA reaches 95% vaccination rate among players
It's going smooth despite the noise made by several players especially Kyrie Irving. It's a good sign.

Good sign and that's also a sign that most of the NBA players believe that the vaccine has no negative effect on our body.

IMO, this series between SMB and TNT is the championship series of the conference as whoever wins this one will be the eventual AFC champion  Smiley.
Since no more Ginkings then this is going to be the usual match-up every final. It's hard to decide on which side I'll be going with but there's a bigger feeling that I'll be with the SMB while my father is always a fan of TNT.
I believe it's easy to decide because SMB is always more dominant than the Gin Kings.

Look at the current roster of the SMB now, they have an improved roster by adding CJ Perez, and this guy does not play the VIP role but is willing to explode every time his service is needed. I don't know if there's any team now that could stop the guards of the SMB, they have a lot of options and they will not worry anymore since JFM is always there to grab the offensive rebound using his size advantage.

Good for us as best of 7 games means there will be more excitement and I'm hoping to see a game 7 between the TNT and SMB.

That's good that it's a best of 7 series. Maybe we can again set up a series of betting here as these two teams really match up against each other. Anyone here likes to make a series bet? I'm willing to risk at least 0.003 BTC for the series game, and my bet is SMB to win the series.

Just send me a PM or post it here.

That's a nice challenge though, but sorry I can't accept that as I also back the SMB to win in the semi-finals. I am not sure if there's someone here who would bet on the TNT to win, looks like all of us here are SMB fan and will support SMB all the way to win the championship.
2630  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: GAMBLING: Skill-based vs. Chance-based on: September 30, 2021, 01:02:10 PM
I prefer to play on skill-based gambling, because it entertains mo more and in that way I enjoy playing it and I also get to exercise my mind than doing nothing other waiting for the results of your bet and it bores me.

But I don't usually participate in gambling activities, depending on my mood wether I'll play or not. Still luck always play a huge role whatever gambling activities you're into, you can't always win even if your knowledge and skills are high. Eventually, the owner will always win.

I guess you should try participating or gambling in a skill-based game as it brings different feelings when you are already playing, who knows, you might be one of the most successful gamblers in the world, that possibility would not happen if you will not try.
2631  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING] Jonas Sultan vs Carlos Caraballo - October 30, 2021 on: September 29, 2021, 08:28:27 PM


Until they start throwing punches we can't tell who's really better between the two, as even thereare available data but fighters

always have surprises when already inside the ring.

I agree if Sultan can take Caraballo's punch and frustrate him just like what he did to Casimero, Caraballo is in big trouble, I consider Sultan to be a more technical fighter he is always not in a hurry to knock out his opponent always patient and wait for the right moment to deliver his big punches, I'm on Sultan on this fight.

A good strategy that most champs have, observing the opponent's attacks and try to see if they can take solid punches and if does, they will begin to counter and start attacking. If Sultan sees that way, Caraballo is not in the good place, though it's been a long while when Sultan beats Casimero, but the confidence that you can repeat the same win over and over already inside him.

Can't wait for the betting odds for this. I'll be more on Sultan's side.

I hope that Sultan will be the underdog so I can bet more on him. He is an underrated fighter and I know he has improved a lot under MP promotion, so that's the reason I like him if he will be listed as the underdog in this fight, if not, then I might just sit this one and just watch the fight without a bet.

He will be the underdog because he is not the champion and his opponent is undefeated.

What I only like to see is the odds will be available early although the fight is one month from now, at least when the odds are available early, we can bet on Sultan and we might have the best value of odds.

Sultan coming from a big KO win against Carter, I guess that would help boost his confidence.
2632  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: TRX to $1? on: September 29, 2021, 08:08:45 PM
If you are unwilling to wait for longer time frame, best to be more realistic, buying at this point and wait till the last ath being reached is more possible than waiting for 5 years which no one knows what will happen to this asset.

Sometimes it's better to look at your capabilities unless you are willing to spare your money and treat it as a retirement fund.

It's on your own perceptions and how well you understand the project. TRX is promising, but the competitions all around also influenced.
the success of this asset in reaching $1.

We're going to have to wait a long time before TRX hits $1. It's still struggling to get past $0.10 per coin. There are many competitors on the market with a stronger marketing/promotion strategy and attractive features. If the project's team wants TRX to reach new ATHs, they're going to need to make some improvements. Something like reducing the coin's total supply, or simply ramping up their marketing/promotion tactics to attract developers into making dApps for the TRON blockchain will do the trick.

I'm fine with TRX being cheap as long as it works as intended. Fast speeds and ultra-low transfers makes "De-Fi" extremely practical on the TRON blockchain. Utility is what matters above all else. People will ultimately decide which smart contract platform to support from the other. With or without $1, TRX will be here to stay. Just my opinion Smiley

I guess they should focus more on the marketing side or improvement of the project rather than decreasing its supply. I believe that the high supply is not a major problem of TRX on why it has not made a new ATH yet. Carado and XRP both has billions of supply, but they reach over $1, so I guess TRX can reach the same price as well in the long run.
2633  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Canelo Alvarez vs Caleb Plant on: September 28, 2021, 12:23:01 PM
Now I am 100% sure that all of this is scripted. Caleb hasn't abused anyone like this in any of his previous fights. If he is deviating from his normal behavior, then it is either resulting from the directives given by the organizers (to increase the viewership count and publicity), or as a result of a plan being drafted by his team in order to provoke Canelo. Either way, I don't disapprove of these cheap tactics. This is not the right way to attract more viewership and interest. And when you have a legend like Canelo at one end, you definitely don't need this.

I'm thinking the opposite of what you think hehe. If they have that act scripted, then there should not be hurting physically, verbal spat should be okay and if ever that act was scripted then they deserve an Oscars lol.

Yeah, you have a point that there's no need for that scuffle if an increase in viewership is what they need as Canelo is already a crowd drawer. Caleb Plant is trying to get under the skin of Canelo in order for him to lose focus as revenge will be the only thing in his mind thus setting aside their pre-fight plan.



We will know in their coming fight if Caleb Plant's strategy is working, but I really doubt that because we know how smart Canelo is, he might show some weakness of not being able to control his emotion but you can see in his eyes how focus he is in the ring.
2634  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: September 26, 2021, 09:26:39 PM
What a ballgame.

I thought that Northport would win the game after Bollick a long 3 point shot, da*mn, Cabagnot was there to save the SMB, and take note, it's the first game of Cabagnot after suffering from an injury, that guy was clutch, he is born in that kind of situation.

Last game it was Marcio that hit the game winner, now it's Cabagnot.

Mr. Clutch is back, damn that was not an easy shot at all. Drive then faded away for that cold-blooded dagger to win the first game of the series for them, that's awesome. But before that, kudos to NorthPort for not giving up, they have a good run in the last minute of the game until they took the lead via that long shot by Bolick.

Lost my bet on that ballgame but the consolation for me was that I enjoyed watching until the end. The next game would be interesting to watch, let us see if the Batang Pier could bounce back on that heartbreaking loss.

The cool thing when you combine gambling and entertainment. Losing is not a big deal when you enjoy watching the game, SMB is one game ahead now the lucky charmed was back and he really made his statement, earning 20 points in your first day of duty, bringing the old team in shape showing that competitiveness again.

I can't wait to see him playing again with Romeo but this time they added Perez who really needs to learn a lot from him, if CJ will see and acknowledge how Cabagnot change the way Romeo playing the game, he will benefits a lot from this old veteran.

It won't be long before Romeo will rejoin the team again, and speaking of CJ Perez, I think there's no problem with him as he is a good team player. Just remember the game of SMB against Alaska who is now eliminated, in the last seconds, it was a broken play and CJ has a chance to shoot the ball but he chose to pass it to Lassiter because he trusts his teammate and believes that Lassiter's 3 point shooting is better than him and it turns out the right decision to make.
2635  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: September 26, 2021, 08:39:51 PM
I'm pretty sure that he knows about the virus and the lockdown situation and the bubble last year. But he is playing the religion card here, so what can we do? If he chooses to ignore the NBA then this will be another situation and drama prior to the start of the season. So I would say that this is really a stupid move from Wiggins, this virus knows no boundaries and worst he can be infected and he can be a carrier in the NBA wherein they are trying to clear and be back to "normal".

You cannot make these kinds of decisions in these crucial deadly times. I feel that he should be penalized for this type of conduct. He is both risking his, his teammates, and his organization's matches and health in jeopardy. This cannot happen. Otherwise, he gets vaccinated, the Warriors won't play him from what I'm understanding and that will hamper their gameplay every week. He has been a very consistent SF for the Warriors by scoring about 19 points a game and getting 5 rebounds a game last season. Not to forget about the 2.4 assists he provided on average per game. Let's see what decisions the management takes after this.

The decision is already final, there's a rule and there's no exemption to the rule, either he gets vaccinated or he is not allowed to play, and if he will not play, he would not get paid and it will have a big effect on the performance of the team knowing that Klay Thompson is still not available until December this year per report.

and also this is the same reason why they are dealing rightful in withdrawal to maintain the good reputation of the BetBTC gambling site so if ever there is buyer at least theil inherit the good name .
^ 10 BTC is quite high to invest and probably it takes time to find the right buyer but if the casino that has a reputable name like this since the start, it is worth it to buy that is why they do their best and release all funds as long as possible to maintain their reputation at in a good brand name. Probably even there are some users who were late claiming their fund they still give it.


I guess only the buyer could evaluate if the price is high or not, for a gambling site that has maintain its good reputation since 2014, I think they deserved to get good offers, and since the site has already build a name, the new owner would not be able to spent a lot on advertising to promote the site, that's the advantage.

Quote
I hope BetBTC will change their mind not to sell this casino and besides they will continue their legacy as a reputable casino. However, we don't know what is the real reason why the owner stop their operation and selling this, they probably had another good business than this.
That would be unprofessional if they will change their mind after making a decision to close the business.

As of now the best ways cryptocurrencies assist in strengthening the integrity and longevity of sports is through sponsorships and salary/compensations.
We also see various sponsorships, brand deals and partnerships coming from crypto bookies so that's the extent that these sports are coming up. But there are also some countries that are not agree with this so they're becoming strict with their implementation about rules that tackles gambling even if it's their country team that will benefit from it.

And for those teams or companies, they can also strengthen through their own adoption through selling merch and accept payments in crypto.
Sponsorships or something correlated to it had been already targetted out which does means that this method is already still a no-go.So it would vary totally with the government.
https://www.gamblinginsider.com/news/12366/gambling-sponsorship-in-sport-declines-ahead-of-potential-ban
https://www.thedrum.com/news/2021/02/01/football-clubs-face-government-ban-betting-brand-shirt-sponsorship

I dont see up about been strengthen with crypto because its just too impossible that it cant really be noticed if ever there are imposed restrictions.

Restrictions are normal, but if the government will accept crypto gambling and regulate it fairly then that would strengthen the future of sports gambling which would gain a massive amount of money as bettors love to use crypto coins for gambling, the most popular coin use in gambling is bitcoin.

Massive adoption is on different kinds of usage, and gambling industry as a huge contribution on that, so it should be viewed as a tax revenue opportunity by the government.

I'm surprised to see an abandoned coin like Dogecoin surging in price like crazy. People are overestimating Dogecoin without realizing that it was never meant to be taken seriously. The huge supply of DOGE in circulation, along with abandoned development and innovation, tells me that it should be less valuable than what it is right now (please correct me if I'm wrong).

What are your thoughts? Do you think Dogecoin is overpriced? If not, why? Your input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Smiley
In my opinion, what happened to Dogecoin in February is difficult to repeat. Back then it was too expensive in my opinion but not for those who look at Dogecoin from a different perspective. Today we can see where Dogecoin is and its price is $0.2
Doge was just in the corner, no one touching it as they know Doge is just a meme coin that is not good for investment if we are looking for a big return, but it was a surprise that Elon shills this coin, and he literally brings it to the moon, and FOMO created so investors money now are stuck with DOGE.
2640  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: September 26, 2021, 06:25:25 AM
Anyway, we have 2 games today.

Magnolia vs Rain or shine (2.34)
SMB vs North Port (2.49)

Greg vs Junemar is an exciting matchup and defense-wise the former got the advantage but SMB's death five is so lethal against the young Bolick and company so I think SMB will clinch this one.

Pick for today:

Magnolia -3.5 @1.86
SMB -4.5 @1.96

Good luck to us all.

SMB at -4.5, I think this is a good odds considering that SMB is really good in this kind of situation. Greg has been steller in the past few games, but JMF is here to limit him and therefore the offense of the NP will be limited to Bollick only, and I also have a feeling that Ross will put a high-pressure defense of Bollick as this is a must-win for them.

About Malonzo, I guess he will continue to score but as a Rookie, too much pressure for him so he will not be consistent.

The game between Hotshots and ROS has already started, unfortunately, I can't focus watching it as I'm a little busy, I'm just monitoring the score now and Magnolia has a 3 points lead now after the 1st quarter. It's still a low-scoring game, so I guess those who bet on the under here might win, good luck!
