Exactly.

If it's possible, the only way to remove gambling addiction is to ban all of the gambling platforms, physical casinos, lotteries, and other form of gambling. Nonetheless, since it is business, there's no way it would happen. Business earns money through people's desires, and it's a cycle. The Government earn taxes from gambling, the gambling businesses earn money from gamblers, and gamblers earn money from gambling, however, not all gamblers are earning money from it.

The cycles got one common thing, it's all about the money.
Gamblers play in hope to win money, while casino owners are taking advantage knowing that from this misconception they will earn from their patrons, while in the other side, government are getting money with the implemented taxes and some casino workers are also earning money from their salaries.

We will keep seeing this cycle the only solution is to ban if the government is serious about taking good care of this problem, restriction about ages or wages will not work as there are always possible ways to bypass or tweak these informations.

There are many reasons for newcomers to Bitcoin losses which if not followed properly can lead to huge losses. The reasons are mentioned below.

Excessive greedyness
Lack of enough knowledge about market and cryptos
Lack of patience in trading
Invest on shit project.

There are many reasons newbies lose, and I've experienced all of the above, but the more I hear and read the more I understand the best strategy to be profitable in crypto, when I first got to know crypto I was greedy because I hoped for big profits from projects that promised big profits , finally I got scammed and this makes me excited to keep learning.

Experienced mostly the best learning process, indeed many newcomers losses their money after investing in this market.

There are many factors, but the main thing is the lack of information about the business that they are entering.
but along the way, after many struggles, they will learn and, after that, they enjoy the good benefits of investing
using bitcoin or any alts that they used as a token of their investment.

Most of the people who are new in this platform make some common mistakes which can lead to big losses. For example, many people invest a large number of amount once in the hope of making more profit without realizing it. There are so many rumors on going around the world. Here newbies are Victims of fraud.
Newbies, mostly the victims, in any trading business expect that whales are present. Without any knowledge of their existence,

you are gambling with your money, make sure to know how to handle this kind of investors, know how to work well with any possible manipulation that's mostly present in the market.

I'm not sure if the Lakers will focus on 3 point shooting, I guess with the current lineup, they will take advantage of their size and they will bring the ball inside where the big 3 can drive. I know they have 3 point shooters too but are they consistent enough, or can be trusted to produce a good percentage of shot?
Yes, they might become an inside attacking team.
Regarding the outside shooting, they have Melo, Lebron, and AD. Rondo is also doing pretty well with his outside shots so I think they can use them for spacing.
We might not see much of how effective it will be for their first few games but with adjustments, it might work.


They will be more effective if they will use their size, but for me a combination is also good for this kind of squad.

WB or LeBron to attack, drop out the ball if Melo or any other open man is on the arc, they can always battle for the offensive rebound since they have size inside. Is more on how the team will blend together, a good chemistry that will allow each other to trust and win together as a team.

On the other hand, Brooklyn Nets is more focused on outside shots, I guess that's also why a hype is happening on what if both teams meet, who will win.
I am kind of excited too.



If no major injuries will happen again with this both teams, the possibilities are higher seeing them meeting in the finals.

Too early, but I'm also excited to see if how pride will win a title.

It is expected. Westbrook will most probably lose his triple double stats consistency, because he joined a super team where more than 2 players could dish like a pass-first point guard and another 2 who can dominantly grab rebounds.
The best thing Westbrook can do is to continue being an explosive point guard. Drive the lane and draw defenders and dish out to the spot up shooters.
If he can perfectly compliment LeBron and AD's style of play, they'll be a tough team to beat in the playoffs.
Yes! he might lose that stats knowing that he's now playing with both LeBron and Davis, who are always capable in producing that stats.
But for sure, if the right blend will be developed between these 3 stars, then adding up the spice by bringing Melo and Howard.
It's Excite me to see if how good Lakers stars in terms of adjusting in every position that they'll going to play.

They are not in their prime but by experienced, they are still capable of beating any teams from this league. Just my personal opinion.
2685  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🔮 Futuur - Predict the Future! 🔮 on: September 12, 2021, 02:50:36 PM
I believe people are just disappointed that futuur team is not very active in promoting their site here.
They had a good start when they still had this sig campaign because people are quite active also.
But when they slow down their presence here, people become skeptical, which is normal, because we've seen a lot of platforms that did exit without warning.
Indeed, the signature campaign helps Futuur to gather more interest from this forum, participants
Creates good responds from forum members. But right now seems after the campaign OP or anyone
from the team is not doing anything to continue such interest. Wondering what happened to the team who are responsible here?,
since the site is up and running actively.

However, the good thing on this betting platform is so far, there are no complaints regarding unresolved withdrawals.
But for them to keep this business, they really need to step up when it comes to their promotional programs.

A good consolation for gamblers who are still using this platform, even they are no longer actively promoting the business here,
they don't have any complain as you said about withdrawing gamblers funds.

How crypto currency change your life?

For me, When I was started it seems that in crypto world is not an easy way to have profits because of an online procedure and no controls. But then again when I know how to handle specially on Trading or in bounty program and that's the reason I started  to earn.
Cryptocurrency is not easy for new users, mastery of cryptocurrency requires a lot of learning. I spend my time trading and working on prizes for one reason, which is to make money, this is the same reason as you. Only people who are patient and unemotional in trading will have a chance to be successful in crypto. Crypto technology becomes complicated if don't learn it.

We usually see or read those success stories coming from influencers or someone who wanted to invite us into this trading business.

Without doing your good research and a relative background check about the venue of business, most of the time you'll going to fail and lose your invested money. It's not easy the way those influencers portray how they manage to gain just by clicking buy and the sell button. You needed to spare your time and continuously learn how to make the process work for you.

crypto trading is a life changer in terms of potential profits that you may have if you do things the right way.

I think so too, their parents are surely so proud of the accomplishment of Paul and Mark in the NBA,
Indeed, they brought Europeans proud of how they achieved, in which most players around the world's desire to have during

their stay from this league, the parents, together with all friends and relatives, are proud of what they both achieved.

and I think with the news that he will stay with Spain, we might not be able to see Mark again playing in the NBA as he is done with his journey here and he is also close to retirement,
He can choose to do that. Maybe the pandemic also influenced his decision to stay close to his family.

well, actually consider this as a retirement already as he stays in Spain, probably for good.
Most probably, unless there's still pressure for him to go back, which maybe has a lesser chance to happen.
2688  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading is not a Game . on: September 11, 2021, 11:51:55 PM
I had the same thought, I never once considered trading like a game. Because I do not trade for entertainment, but to make money like we work.
Treating this venue as a good source of income will let you find better ways to execute your trading pairs.

It's not a game or a gambling alike business, but with a good source of information, you can earn decently from this field of investment.

So I'm always careful when making decisions when trading, because I don't want my capital to be wasted.
Aside from your capital, which very important, but you also consuming your time and efforts,

in order not to waste it all, better to focus and seriously taking all the data that you need to make things favorable to your investment.

Trade as best as possible by analyzing first, then controlling emotions when trading, so that it is easier for us to make profits.
Combining these two will give you a better chance of making good winning trades, it's very important to have it.
2689  Economy / Speculation / Re: Dream Bitcoin 100k on: September 11, 2021, 07:06:56 PM
it was very difficult to break through $50k, only a few days bitcoin was above $50k and after that bitcoin was thrown quite deep. The end of the year is approaching and this situation can certainly dispel the optimism of many people that the bitcoin price will reach $100k before the end of the year. if market conditions do not recover quickly of course the chances of reaching $100k before the end of the year will be smaller.

Don't despair. There is no reason Bitcoin cannot repeat this move again after doing so on several occasions already.

Bitcoin price in September 2012 (a year after the first halving) ~ $ 130, jumped to $1,150 in December.
Bitcoin price in September 2017 (a year after the second halving) ~ $ 4,900, jumped to $ 19,000 in December.
Bitcoin price in September 2021 (a year after the third halving) ~ $ 45,000, jumped to Huh in December.



Very interesting, if the same thing happens we will never know if how many fold bitcoin will jump.

A matter of how well you anticipate, there's no clear or any accurate point as all are a base from own speculation and opinion,
This information about Bitcoin movement every after halving that takes place, will give us a good glimpse. if history will repeat itself
we might not see $100K but possible to reach more than that level.

With early introduction about the value of money, they will understand how they can apply it to improve their financial capability in the near future.
Indeed, with this knowledge that they've got from their young stage, it's more easy for them to work it out and

Treat it as an advantage when they grow up. They can expedite and explore for more open opportunities for the betterment of their lives.

They will understand how hard it is to find and earn money, and so they will appreciate what their parents are doing to provide for the family.
It will open their minds and teach them to be more practical in life, valuing what the parents did for them to secure their future.

Most kids who understand such financial situation tend to be responsible also, which is a very good training growing up.
Nothing but to agree, let your children grow understanding the value of securing their future, a good custom that they can bring when
it's time for them to raise their own families.
2691  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [WARNING!] For gamblers using coins.ph on: September 11, 2021, 05:34:26 PM
Coins.ph is losing customers because of their strict rules but members failed to realize that it's the AMLA the money laundering council and BSP are the ones that laid down the rules and they just follow what on the rules because they are compliant, so it's better to monitor your transactions and follow what Coins.ph tells its members because it's still the number exchange in the country.

there is no but coins.ph for Filipinos. abra i think will also have the same rules too. i'm also cautious in using my coins.ph wallet that i have to send coins from casino going to an exchange before sending it to coins.ph that would be another costly transaction fee.

i wonder if anyone's account has been blocked and was unblocked after an explanation. let's say i explain to them i'm sending coins from a casino wallet but this is my fee from a signature campaign?  Grin

It's been answered


I've already discussed it with coins.ph, if they have an exception (signature campaign) but a gambling based one, and the answer is they don't allow it.
From my understanding, there's no exemption according to this reply.

And it's always better to be on the safe side not using Coins.ph for your gambling activities. Using separate non custodial wallet to ensure your funds, it might hurt you a little because of the fees, but better than having those worries each time you send and withdraw your money from your chosen casino website.
2692  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: September 11, 2021, 04:30:04 PM
I think its the right decision for him to go back and play in his native country if no teams are going to pick him up. He has been in the NBA with his brothers for many years, maybe it's time for him to retire.

He will contribute a lot to Spain, not just by playing but he could be a mentor as well.

There's still no confirmation if he will play for the Spain basketball team. Reports just said that Marc Gasol wants to stay with his family.

Either way, there's no need for him to play but rather be part of the coaching staff or mentoring team instead. He will be a good addition to the staff team as he knows well his national team. Unless there's a call of duty, that's the time he needs to consider playing back.


Reading this, I remember how Luc Longley returned to his basketball career not as a player but part of the coaching staff of Australian National team.

off topic, but just like how old guys contribute with their favorite sport, Gasol can join the national as he's always part of their Olympic Team, he can develop more talents and build a good foundation for team Spain.

No need for him to play as he doesn't need to prove anything, just like with his older brother. Mark also won an NBA title, a good part
of Raptors missing pieces to win the 2018-19 title.
2693  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: September 10, 2021, 02:31:43 PM
My top 5 best players in the 2021 – 2022 NBA season in no order are Kevin Durant, Lebron James, Kawhi Leonard, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Steph Curry.
I like your ranking, based on this article, 4 of the names are in the top 5 (https://www.persources.com/ranking-the-top-20-nba-players-2021/), but Leonard was not rank in the top 5, I think Leonard is just underrated where in reality, I see that he can carry a team and if he was not only injured during the NBA WCF, they could have gone to the NBA Finals by beating the Suns.

No doubt if he's not injured during that final against Suns, the chance of winning the series is very possible.

Quitely taking over when the team needs him, Kawhai has that capability to change the tempo of the game when the call
for him to work it up, he also a complete package can work both ways good offensive score and yet a good defender. I see
A MJ and Kobe type of caliber aside from babying his injury. That's the only thing that I don't like about him! (No offense)
2694  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [WARNING!] For gamblers using coins.ph on: September 10, 2021, 01:50:33 PM
It's not the safest if you don't want to get linked, at least that's the way to mask your real transaction a bit so no questions will be thrown to you. Yes, the fees now are very cheap, you can make transactions more if you want. For gamblers who really want to ensure their privacy or hide the origin of transactions, then it's wise to use a bitcoin mixer, I'm sure the regulators will have a hard time tracing your transactions if you ever get investigated.

Well, most gamblers these days who're concerned about privacy will just use anon-casinos or just spread their betting on a lot of places.

Mixers are always good for privacy, but also depending on the size and tech of the mixer. Currently I think only chipmixer is the one that has the best privacy but personally never tried it as well.

For me though if you gamble and owe taxes, better to pay up.
Mixers help gamblers to hide their identities and I agree with you, depends on how big the amount you need to mix.

small time gamblers will choose non-custodial wallet if they are just using a small amount of money, while whales who's trying to hide
everything will have no problem using a mixer or hardware wallet, which much safer even there's good cost to have one. It fell to your
needs and your capabilities to choose your options.
2695  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Notice your emotion on: September 10, 2021, 12:50:47 PM
That's true but there are some principle I have been applying recently that made me overcome fear while making investment.
Now this is how I does it; I create another new wallet, move out all my currencies which I planned to hold for long term. I print out my wallets public and secret keys and store most of them in my flash or external disk, then I will delete the wallet from being visible to me till the month or weeks I wish to look back to currencies I m holding.
By this you will overcome fear because you don't always view your wallets.


Good share in terms of minimizing your fear and panic won't push you to sell your asset during the dump session.

It will create more trust with your investment, and just adding, better also not to look to any exchange or any news site not
to be aware yourself of any updates from the market. With this kind of attitude, you'll be able to move forward.
Better to find other things to divert your attention and allow the cycle from market move on and passed the dumping season.
2696  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: XRP is pumping now. on: September 10, 2021, 12:11:47 PM
All investors hold on to the currency for a good pump the market is slowly rising and new currencies and projects are being added to the crypto space with the rise in the price of bitcoin ethereum. For which the price of other altcoin is increasing and crypto is becoming popular.
It is also based on the large number of enthusiasts in a particular currency, because investors also see all the currencies and cryptocurrencies that are most liked by people in the crypto space, so they obviously will not be careless in their choice.

It's always that way, when there is good support, the value of coin will increase.

XRP even it's moving down from the tops spot, there are still supporters who believes that this asset can still perform in the long run,
Believers and whales are playing and influenced the supply and demand. With the market slowly moving up, the chance that XRP will
receive decent value.

And if Simmons are not traded, for sure he will sit out the rest of the season, maybe we will see a Kawhi situation all over again. He has statement that he doesn't want to play with the Sixers, however, there are no teams that can be traded for him. And probably teams are willing but at what expense? We can all call now that Ben is over rated player? Just passing skills and then no shooting?

Better to adjust to what you are asking for the value of Ben instead of sitting him for the entire season,

Letting him go and get what other teams have to offer, the value of Ben for this upcoming season may help Sixers to regroup once they already send him out, else, they are willing to let him watch the game for the entire season or wait for any available stars that will ask to be transferred. For now, there's no development as Pres. Morey is not lowering his demands for Simmons.
2698  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Be a Responsible Gambler on: September 08, 2021, 04:00:50 PM
No one will want to blame, no matter what they did, because they could think that what they did is what they wanted.
It should be that way, it's your choice. There's should no one to be blame for whatever path you take.

Gambling is a high-risk vice if you suffer from heavy addictions. You need to help yourself and stand against this problem.

Maybe if we can be aware of what we did and realize that it is not good or wrong for us, that will give us to admit that we did something wrong and want to fix the problem.

Everything will start inside you, when you already realize the problem. Finding the suite solution should be the next thing to do.

Learning other people's mistakes will be good for us because at least we know how not to make the same mistake and how to avoid that.

From that perception, it least to experience the same mistake if you know what would be the possible outcome.

Being a responsible gambler is a must and never be too late to learn about having responsibility when playing gambling before it is too late to realize.
Being responsible is knowing how to control, limiting yourself and not to push anything to exceed is the best strategy to avoid any harm happened to your finances.
2699  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: September 05, 2021, 04:25:41 AM
So I doubt that he can improved as well in the Lakers since Dwight will be the main center for the team.

I agree with this. DeAndre Jordan is just a name now. The average playing time will be around 10 minutes per game.

Backup for Davis or Howard if they are injured? I doubt. Lakers are playing with no center always. They can do it without a center.

Kendrick Nunn is the best additional player for the Lakers bench. A young player with good 3 points shooting percentage and not even fit as a part of the second squad. He can be a starter too.

Jordan may give some quality minutes coming from the bench, but I believe that it's mostly Howard to play as Center.

The Lakers system is no longer new to Howard he can easily play alongside with Davis and Bron playing with catch and dunk.

And with Rondo, it's more likely that they will use those effective game plays, which are easy for them to execute.
They can let those newcomers to watch and learn, play attention to the rotations and make themselves fit into the system.
2700  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Inoue vs Donaire II discussion on: September 04, 2021, 03:10:43 PM
Well, that's your personal opinion and I respect that. What I want to say is that currently, there's no other popular champion in Japan, they only have Inoue so the support is on him, just like the Philippines they have no other boxer but Manny Pacquioa.

Honestly, for me, I don't know any boxer in Japan who is popular except Inoue, so I'm thinking that since he was compared to Manny Pacquiao, then probably he is going on a journey that will make him the greatest boxer in Japan. Still a long way to go, he has to beat the challenge like Casimero who is on his way so he can continue his wonderful journey.

Me too, I don't know any Japanese boxer aside from Inoue but same a like Inoue needs to work harder if he wanted
to gained the popularity as how Manny Pacquiao made his name to this sport.

Beating Casimero will add up to his resume as this young fighter is also creating his name inside
the same division as where he's dominating this sport.

Let see how things will work after the finalization to whoever the promoters choose Inoue's way.
