Thanks for the quick summary though I watched the race from a live coverage I received.

Though what baffled me was that, Lewis was marching and blazing through the laps. Even if Verstappen had the soft tyres and pitted twice, Lewis managed to kept his hard tyres with around a +16s gap at lap 54. I was so sure that he was going to win his 8th title but the crash from Latifi resulted to a safety car. The question is, do you think it is just that Verstappen overtook 3 cars when the safety car was deployed?

If you happen to die without sharing your private key/wallet to someone else or to your family members, then they will be lost forever or just stuck there- thus contributing to its inflation in the future. Just to give you an example, Satoshi Nakamoto owns around 750,000-1,000,000 BTCs in his wallet but they remained to be untouched. This is why some speculated that he may be dead due to the lack of movement from his address.

That is why, it is somehow advisable that you store your BTCs in a hardware wallet and brief your wife/family members about its existence in the event that you unexpectedly die. In this way, they will be able to reap the benefits you left compared to it being stuck forever.

This is definitely superb news kabayan!

As someone who lacks a bank account, the convenience of GCASH providing stock investment opportunities and cryptocurrencies ay sobrang helpful talaga lalo na't iisang platform na lang ang kailangan. Parang yung ginawa ni BDO, gumawa din sila ng sarili nilang stock platform within their banking application. Ngayon at GCASH naman ang gagawa nito, mas madaming tao ang mahihikayat na mag invest at mag try din ng stocks at the same time. Hopefully, mag come into fruition itong idea as soon as possible!

Playing the slot machine is like rolling the dice- no matter how hard you try, it all relies on pure luck.

I doubt that there are slot machines that are programmed to show a specified result after pulling its lever. I also doubt that there are any present techniques or tips on how to at least minimize the risks of losing since a person relies purely on luck in this type of gambling. Unlike poker or any card games where it involves an element of skill, slot machines are heavily based on luck that require no skill nor thought. If such skill is existing, then slot machines would be irrelevant and obsolete by now.

Over the past years, new investment methods have been introduced into the world with people exploring different ideas and ways to earn money. After the rise of cryptocurrencies, mine coins have started to rise resulting into a 'pay-2-play' system (e.g. Axie Infinity) where people invest before they could earn money.

It is but obvious that people under the generation Z are exposed to the innovative ways of earning investments in this day and age. Who knows that maybe in the next 5-10 years from now, another innovative method would be introduced that is also highly effective in rendering millions in profit depending on their investments.

The point is, crypto was introduced in the height of the internet where people are slowly exposed to its long-term effects.

You are definitely correct. HODLing is by far the most convenient way of investing your BTCs for long-term investment. By basing one's decision purely on the price history of bitcoin, one can have this reassurance and hope that its price would skyrocket 3-4 years from now or from the next fork.

Personally, if I could have saved majority of my BTCs that I earned last 2017, I would have re-invested it and probably purchase more on the process. That is why, I adopt HODLing as my primary source of investment method rather than risking it through gambling, trading, etc.

Please move your thread to this board: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=65.0 as there is a specific lending section where people request for such.

You are a newbie asking for a non-collateral loan- I doubt that anyone would risk their BTCs to your contingent offer, specifically that you mentioned on your own words that I will pay back once I get my profit. which is highly dependent upon you receiving profit from trading which is a highly-risked environment.
Lastly, try to provide any collateral that can be equated to the amount that you are asking.

Hmm this is an interesting concept especially when you consider the computation of the algorithms which look for the most probable move but I doubt that it may be able to predict accurately the price of BTC.

Remember that the price of cryptocurrencies derive from several external and internal factors that can be outside the control of anyone. Even if machines take it into consideration, there will always be that +/- variable which can either make or break one's investment.

Can someone explain to me what happened ever since Latifi crashed? I think Lewis deserves this win so much. Mercedes took the risk of pitting once with those hard tyres and Lewis drove exceptionally throughout the entire race. After the crash at lap 54, what the hell happened after? I was so sure that Lewis got this in the bag with his consistent form and driving but what just happened after the safety car at lap 57?

Well nevertheless, congratulations for Max Verstappen for winning this race! The last lap was just the most nerve-wrecking lap that I have witnessed!

There are certain exchanges that offer a relatively low percentage per trade- you could probably search this on the internet but I highly recommend using binance as your main exchange platform if you plan on day-trading.

As per your knowledge that day traders do about "100+ trades a day", it is somehow worrying to have this kind of mentality especially that you are just starting as a beginner. My advice would be to trade as little amount as possible in order you could gain the experience of trading. Just like in driving, no matter how you read tips and guides about it, the only way to learn is through actual experience.

This season is definitely one of the best seasons yet! It reminded me of the 2010 season where the world champion is decided on the last circuit (this is where Seb won and was declared the youngest world champion). What are your thoughts on the qualifying race? Max was able to snatch pole position which will ultimately affect his place on the grid- I just hope that we will have a clean race this last circuit to avoid any mishaps and damage.

Though Max was able to get pole, I still feel that Hamilton will able to push his limits and snatch his 8th championship title.

Unfortunately, some members and newbies fail to utilize the 'search bar' function on the forum which results to a duplicated and repeated topic that had been answered way back. Another thing, there are also users who create similar threads in order to reach the quota of campaign signatures, which results also to shitposts and spams on the forum.

But judging from the recent development of cryptocurrencies over the years, I doubt that there will be no more topics to write about. There will always be new innovations being introduced and developments that will soon shock the cryptocurrency world.

Do remember that majority of the people still lack the proper knowledge of understanding cryptocurrencies which hinder the further recognition from it. Given also that fiat is the main currency of exchange around the world, it is obvious that most people would trust USD (or fiat in general) than cryptocurrencies.

While cryptocurrencies have no hindrance in terms of exchanges as it is considered financial freedom, the lack of regulation makes it difficult for its recognition around the world. Also do note that cryptocurrencies can be relatively difficult if you view them primarily as currency.

I think the only problem with the advertisement of 1XBIT campaign are the boards that do not reveal the trust rating of users. It has that possibility of attracting persons or newbies in the forum given the amount of people they hire for their advertisements.

Fortunately for members here in the forum, almost everyone knows the reputation of 1XBIT as a fraudulent gambling website due to its numerous cases of scams and shenanigans. I just hope that before a person attempts to gamble at that website, he/she must search for its reputation here in the forum as lots of threads have been created against that gambling website.

I think it was the time when I bought something using bitcoin via p2p exchanges. I mean, some people do treat BTC as a form of asset or currency but the restrictions imposed on banking (like the one you mentioned on your example) makes it more difficult to experience financial freedom.

I remember back in 2018, my friend referred me someone who was looking for BTC in exchange for his products and electronics. I quickly grab the opportunity since he was selling it at a discounted price. After our transaction, it made me realize that what nothing was hindering us from exchanging.

Back in 2017, I stumbled upon a friend who somehow compelled me to invest into USI-Tech, a ponzi-scheme, showing me his results after six (6) months of investing 20 BTCs in his wallet. I was amazed on how the returns were promised (60% after 6 months) and my friend further told me about his experience on investing into such.

After the fifth (5th) month of the investment, the website crashed and all the BTCs I invested were gone! Moral of the story: never trust ponzi-schemes in any manner. While most of us have their respective experiences, generally, ponzi-schemes will definitely steal your investments.

As someone who is a big fan of Magnus, I am personally saddened by the state of Nepo in the WC 2021. After game 6, he somehow went downhill especially that in yesterday's games, he blundered which gave Magnus a +4.6 advantage which he slowly raked through the game and converted it to a win!

Magnus retained his 5th WC title but props to Nepo for the brilliant games he played. He definitely challenged Magnus and put up a good fight but at the end, the champion still reigned.

Before someone gambles, it is essential that you read their TOS in order to avoid any further conflict and issues while playing. If you think that you do not agree with a certain rule mentioned in their TOS, I think it is best if you just avoid the gambling website than to push further- prevention is always better than cure.

As far as I know, the forum had already experienced some players who had issues with specific TOS of gambling websites but in the end, the latter won due to its aleatory contractual nature where they are bound with the agreements once the players agree to it.

HODL is one of those strategies that will net you income for long-term purposes. Personally, I consider this strategy as one of the safest  and most effective in terms of earning cryptocurrencies hassle free. You just purchase bitcoins during the bear market and HODL it for long-term; you may cash it out depending on your goal or once it reaches the price that you are comfortable with.

Given by the fact that forks do happen, it is inevitable for the denominations of the release of BTC as a reward for miners be reduced. This results to its price increasing in the future which makes this strategy effective for long-term.

A technique in dice games? This is something that I have not heard of since throwing the dice simply means relying purely on luck on the odds on what number it will fall on. I doubt that there are any specific techniques that a player might integrate into throwing a dice since everything is just purely on luck. Even if a person does have a technique, I doubt that it will change or be game-breaking to the point that he may be able to predict which number it would fall on.

Like what most people have mentioned, I do avoid dice games due to its reliance purely on luck.
