I'm surprised, he didn't gamble the money he won? That's how things usually go. I highly doubt someone who was quite addicted to gambling would suddenly stop and realize that they need to save money, they'd probably straight up go to gambling again after the money has settled in. Additionally, I think the only problem here would've been if his money was manually transferred physically? I haven't tried it but I'm pretty sure there should be a possible process for you to transfer money from banks even if they're from different countries.

Not really, although he is addicted to gambling, the sum of 1 million dollars is huge and he probably thinks that is enough for him to have a comfortable life for the rest of his life, so he does not need to gamble to get rich anymore. If he still can't give up gambling, he can still play after returning home, keeping money is the most important thing at that time.
The OP's story has many unclear parts, he doesn't detail how his friend was able to convert 1 million USD into bitcoin.

Today market green and a lot of altcoins that I hold go up, I'm sure July will be the start of a market bull run, continuing to buy altcoins that have the potential to skyrocket is important, don't be pessimistic when the market is red again, it's actually an opportunity to buy at a good price cheaper.

I agree that we should not be too pessimistic about market conditions that are still in a bear market. Because in the end the bull market
will come, this is how the crypto world is, there are always bear markets and bull markets that appear alternately. What we need to do is
how to take advantage of the current bear market in order to benefit us in the future. So we should be able to see the positive side of
the current bear market, many opportunities open to being able to buy potential coins at low prices. Therefore we can start doing research
and analysis, so as not to choose the wrong coins for investment, because not all potential coins are good to buy.

Don't be pessimistic in a red market but also don't be too subjective in a green market, we've had tough days in the market since Luna crashed and now it's just a light green. While that's fine, don't be too subjective and think that the bear market is over.
If you were not afraid and bought during the days when the market fell, this is the opportunity for us to take a part of the profit, but you should not be too greedy because the market can turn unexpectedly.

Shiba seems have rough days and i don't really think New like this can have big effect, but ut still a good idea for this exchanges to announce news like this during market recovery because it can have some good effect and bring some users to their platform

It is not only Shiba that is having tough days, but the whole market as well, we are in a bear market and don't expect shiba to create hype, it will do more damage to the company rather than help it gets better.

This will be good news for users of the coins.ph platform and will not affect the price of Shiba. Shiba is currently listed on most major and reputable exchanges so news like this is nothing to behold.

The bear market is not a time to look for profits but a time for us to accumulate potential coins with high discounts. Along with that, to win and be profitable in the coming bull season, we need to have knowledge, knowledge is an indispensable weapon for us to bring victory.
The marketplace is where we focus on knowledge, learn to plan for ourselves, and develop missing skills. Be prepared for the victories in the next bull season.
2725  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The hidden gem on: July 18, 2022, 02:36:11 PM
IMO, Just, to be honest, it's not new already it's a very common comparison and claim and many previous projects have been using that method of comparison before but where they are now? most of them are claiming they are a hidden gem but the truth is they do not exist anymore and some are abandoned, the lesson to learn is don't just easily believe in a bunch of crypto pronouncements just examine it thoroughly if that was possible before getting on board to avoid any frustration in the future. but in the name of fairness let us wait how this project well performed.

I haven't come across this project yet, but I always feel allergic to any project that always compares itself to bitcoin.
Yes, you are absolutely right: there have been many claims before, projects are always comparing, trying to prove that it is superior and better than bitcoin but then what, not a single coin can survived until now. A really good coin is best you keep quiet and act to prove it to everyone, not necessarily compare with any other project.

Yah i also think that same ETH price is growing too fast i missed to grab it early in 1000$ thats a bad luck i think now it will move the next level and it will hard to take it in 1000$ again!
Why bad luck, you miss it because you don't trust the market, you fear things will go bad?
There is good news concerning ethereum, the cryptocurrency has hit some FOMO levels and I am glad that the price of ETH has risen to $1400 today. But we are not out of bear season yet and things are still uncertain even though all coins are green today. Don't get too excited when you see green, always be suspicious and careful with the market, there are always pitfalls lurking around us.
2727  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Am I doing the right thing on: July 18, 2022, 02:15:06 PM
How can a newbie invest in good altcoins? I know about BTC and ETH but I think I can make more money from altcoins instead of BTC and ETH, I did my research and I have a few projects in mind but I don't know if they are worthy..

Avalanche, Mina protocol, Phala network and Aleph Zero to name a few
I think you better have some bitcoin in your portfolio, I agree with you that altcoins are more profitable than bitcoin but the higher the return, the higher the risk so you should not invest all your money in altcoins.

Smart investment is an investment that includes: a long-term portfolio and a short-term portfolio, reasonable capital allocation and always have contingency plans (long-term investment). Investing is always risky, so please research carefully and consider before investing.
2728  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: July 18, 2022, 09:13:01 AM
Roma can steal Dybala from the hands of other interested teams any time. I'm even surprised about his waiting as free agent for this long. Roma are the most serious contender to sign him and I don't expect Dybala to create any problem about this deal. He can find a big opportunity to reshine at Roma. He is having his most productive ages in fact and he must play as much as possible to take advantage of it. He is still a quite skilled striker in the end. I will be wondering how he will react if he gets an offer from the Premier League for example as well.
If he gets an offer from a Premier League team then I think he will be more inclined to consider himself playing in the most competitive league. Especially if what is interested in him is a big team that is ready to fight for the title. He would definitely want something like that, but so far there have been no rumors that any Premier League team would be interested in using his services.
Now rumors that Paulo Dybala will return to AS Roma are very intense with the seriousness of the team from the capital city to recruit the 28-year-old Argentine player, it is not impossible that the player will choose him, if you look at the development of AS Roma's performance under the tutelage of Jose Mourinho, of course it will be a lot there are good possibilities for the future and also Paulo Dybala is a talented player who is at the best age for a footballer, last season he played quite well by being able to score 10 goals in 29 Serie A games with Juventus.
I hope he stays in Serie A and AS Roma is the best team for him in my opinion, if that happens then the competition for the Serie A teams to win the Scudetto is getting more interesting and of course making Serie A even more competitive.

Dybala has been playing in Serie A for a long time. He is well aware of the style of play in Serie A. And so I will be happy if I see Dybala in a Serie A team next season. Dybala's performance will not deteriorate in any way. Roma could be a good choice for Dybala now. Because the coach of Roma is now Mourinho. Mourinho is a very experienced coach. Dybala may become more experienced if he stays with Mourinho.

Sri Lanka is slowly moving towards big collections. They lost only 3 wickets. Opener Oshada Fernando was able to collect 64 runs. Kusal Mendis remains unbeaten on 68 runs. Sri Lanka will get a chance to play about 51 overs today. Sri Lanka will undoubtedly be able to collect more than 310 if they bat the whole day. Sri Lanka has a good chance to provide a big target and win the match.

Sri Lanka lost the seventh wicket for 235 runs. If they lose all wickets before 300 then I don't think Sri Lanka can win the match. Dinesh Chandimal and Ramesh Mendis are batting now. Chandimal is an experienced player. If he stays at the crease, Sri Lanka will be able to collect more than 300. But Pakistan's bowlers are also very experienced.
2730  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: July 17, 2022, 07:59:00 PM
Guardiola will not face any problems for Oleksandr Zinchenko, if he leaves the team. Because Oleksandr Zinchenko is not an important player for Manchester City. But I think Guardiola should strengthen his defense. While he brought in talented players like Haaland to strengthen the forwards, he did not do enough to strengthen the defense. Manchester City needs an experienced defender now.
Am surprised you did rate the Ukrainian International Oleksandr Zinchenko down this way. I consider him one of the best talents in the Manchester City squad. Let's face the fact, his got skill, speed and some shot power to support. Last season was a very hard time for him, with the on going war in his nation with Russia and the distress it would put him in, his sure not to be in his best but, his by far one of the best talents in Manchester City. Perhaps this is some deal to stimulate Arsenal to release Saka for them.
Let's not forget, R. Sterling and G. Jesus have left the team on transfer so, the options isn't as before and this could mean trouble for the bench.

Manchester City is full of great players right now and it does feel like Manchester City does not need Oleksandr Zinchenko at this moment. But I don't deny that he has got skills. His skills are really good. But that is not something that Manchester City needs right now. And if he plays for any other team he will be able to get a lot more play time compared to what he got at Manchester City.


-.-
I don't understand why he says Zinchnko is a very important player in Manchester City. I don't really understand how he measured his importance. Someone that is not a first team player cannot be that important to a club.
Saying why Guardiola is more interested in his attack than the defence could be his pattern of play. He believes that if he can score 4 - 5 goals evey match, it will be difficult for the opposition to equalize such goals. Besides while playing any club, Manchester City always has the larger possession. So Manchester City is not a defensive club.

He is a good player. Maybe he will also be a very important player in any other team but not in Manchester City right now. Because Manchester City has a lot of better players compared to him. It's all about the necessity and he is not needed in the City at this moment.  But I am sure he will be a valuable asset for other teams. And I also think that Manchester City is going to play aggressive football in the next season because that's how they are shaping the time right now.


-.-
Guardiola works very well with the squad, he has the opportunity to have several equal players in each position in the team, so yes, the departure of Zinchenko from the team will not be a big problem for Manchester City, but the departure of a player of this level will still be noticeable. In the end, there are no irreplaceable players, everyone can eventually be replaced, especially since this will not be a problem for a team with such financial capabilities as City.

I believe that Manchester City has a really good score right now and the main squad which they have is really good. But even the main squad of Manchester City can be easily rotated. So I don't think they will have to worry too much about a certain player leaving the club. Manchester City is going to play aggressive football in the upcoming season and they have the perfect squad for that in my opinion.
2731  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Luna Classic - Thoughts? on: July 17, 2022, 09:46:50 AM
I'd rather invest in a meme coin like shiba inu if those zeros are good to the eye for me than investing money on LUNC, Shiba community is stronger and people have faith in the project more than LUNC where every trust was shattered, it will be pretty tough for people to keep trusting LUNC.

If I only have 2 choices, one is to invest in lunac, the other is to invest in meme like shiba. I would also choose shiba over lunac. I don't know what the people who are investing in lunac are thinking, are they waiting for a miracle?, A gamble where you are not sure what percentage of your winnings will be, it is best not to invest in that gamble.

Shiba, it's just a meme but it's not as bad as Luna, a top coin that collapsed in just a few short days, it's worse than the meme.
2732  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: SHIB, DOGE and BabyDoge: How Do Community Favorites Perform? on: July 17, 2022, 09:38:55 AM
I don't like to play with meme coins. These pump dump schemes are not potential at all. You have seen how Elon play with Doge, it's all about just making money and filling their pocket. I don't follow such as pump dump coins. I know many people become a millionaire from these coins, but it's like a gamble where everyone's luck wouldn't the same. I always like to pick some potential coins, because I lost a lot from shit coins.

But people are into profits.  We can't deny that.  Honestly, pump and dump things are already a part of trading history, so hating it now is somehow a waste of energy.  Instead, we should take advantage of the knowledge we have, ride on the pump and dump and get a profit with it.  This is another reason why these meme cryptocurrency is thriving.
That's right, whether you invest in bitcoin or memes, what we care about is profit, so investing in memes is not necessarily bad or too bad, it's each person's choice. For safety, bitcoin is the first choice, and for the adventurous, shitcoins and memes are their choice, as long as people know what they are doing and accept the risk with their decision. Bitcoin is a long term investment, altcoins, memes will be speculation, surfing.
2733  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Advice from a stranger on: July 17, 2022, 09:28:36 AM
Is it true that new altcoins are the best to invest in right now? Someone said you can easily make better profits from new projects than investing in old altcoins that have already x their values already, what do you think? Good or bad idea.

New projects can bring huge profits even x1000, but to find it is not easy, I would say that it is almost impossible, finding the gem is like predicting the bitcoin price tomorrow. Secondly, if you invest in a new project that may have a 1000% return, you may also receive a 1000% risk return. So think carefully before deciding.
One more thing, you can ask the person who told you these things, did they make a lot of money from new projects or did they just hear from other people.

Old projects are overvalued and that is why many people are lookind for new and prospective projects. But the most important to evaluate the potential of the project to understand how useful it will be in the future like this https://my.ebinity.com/en/register

If you think old coins are overvalued then this is your chance to buy them cheap, now potential old coins have also lost more than 80% of their value compared to their ATH. On the other hand, old projects have proven that they are good and can still grow in one bear season, are resilient and achieve new ATH in the next bear season. I believe altcoins that survive the bear season will have new ATHs in the next bull season. For new projects too risky to start without any prior trust.
2734  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: July 16, 2022, 06:01:47 PM
I also predict Tottenham will not want to let Kane go in the transfer market this summer. because the contribution of kane and Son last season was extraordinary where Tottenham was able to pass arsenal at the end of the season and tottenham was able to occupy the 4th position when the competition ended. So the tottenham board members will definitely not sell their star and they will keep kane no matter what. Moreover, Conte and Kane have a pretty good harmony of course the coach will ask him to stay with Tottenham next season.
Tottenham Hotspur play on Champion League next season and they never try to sell Harry Kane as most important player under Antonio Conte era, I think he will become regular central forward for Tottenham Hotspur. I think sell Harry Kane to Bayern Munich have bad reputation and for Spurs after last season Manchester City have make fantastic values. Keep on Antonio Conte scheme why Harry Kane is not for selling until his contract over with Spurs. I think usually England player dislike have to leave primer league because all of them not reach good career when playing on other league.

Tottenham does not intend to sell Harry Kane this season. They may actually try to sell him if they cannot win the Champions League or even the English Premier League and their performance is subpar. They might also try to get another player with that money.

But right now there is no way Tottenham is planning to offload Harry Kane. If I recall correctly, they kept Harry Kane in order to have some positive results next season. So if anyone says that they are looking to sell Harry Kane, I believe it is just a baseless rumor.
2735  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: July 16, 2022, 05:17:21 PM
Oleksandr Zinchenko is on the verge of leaving Manchester city this summer after the effortless push of the Gunners for the Ukraine international. Arsenal have cover verbal agreement with the Leftback who's one key player for Pep Guardiola. Perhaps his departure won't affect the team as Pep will strive harder for his replacement which is Cucurella from Brighton. Talks in it's final stages as salary and duration of contract in active bids.

Guardiola will not face any problems for Oleksandr Zinchenko, if he leaves the team. Because Oleksandr Zinchenko is not an important player for Manchester City. But I think Guardiola should strengthen his defense. While he brought in talented players like Haaland to strengthen the forwards, he did not do enough to strengthen the defense. Manchester City needs an experienced defender now.

West Indies VS Bangladesh

Like the first two ODIs, West Indies are likely to lose the last match as well. Bangladesh won the toss and allowed West Indies to bat first. But their collection was 28/3 in 13 overs and West Indies lost 3 wickets for just 16 runs. Like today we are seeing West Indies' batting weakness. West Indies will lose all wickets before 200 runs.
After losing 3 wickets for just 16 runs, they managed to collect 79 runs in 25 overs without losing any more wickets. Nicholas pooran collected 30 and Keacy Carty is able to collect 32 runs. Although their run rate is now only 3.15. But now it is more important for them to survive at the crease than to score runs. Pooran and Carty are batting well.

With Taijul's superb bowling skills, the West Indies innings were stopped to just 178 runs. They fell behind after losing the first 3 batsmen at the beginning of the innings. However, with the help of Nicholas Pooran's 73 runs, West Indies managed to collect 178 runs. It's not enough to win. Because Bangladesh batsmen have played well in the last two matches. However, Bangladesh's performance is always unpredictable. It is not surprising that they were defeated even though the target was so low.

The price of bitcoins is not determined by the supply of bitcoins, supply is only part of those factors. It is determined by the technology behind bitcoin, and by the benefits it offers to us.

Currently, we have mined 19 million bitcoins and only 2 million bitcoins left unmined, but to mine all 21 million bitcoins we will have to 2140. That means we have 120 years left before we can mine all the bitcoin, I think that's pretty far away.

Yes, ethereum is trash. As far as I know out of all the rest of the altcoins, not a single altcoin has surpassed Ethereum in terms of dapps, market cap, investors or number of users...How does a junk coin do that?. Many ethereum killers were created over the years, but I am still disappointed that no one has done it yet. The previous ones were Sol and most recently the celo network, a known ETH killer that was down for almost 24 hours. They are confident that it is faster than ETH, gas fees are cheaper than ETH, but it keeps crashing. Laugh Grin!
2740  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bitcoin, Dogecoin Gain After Musk's Tweets, But Will There Be Another Bull Run? on: July 15, 2022, 03:22:46 PM

Bitcoin drop to $20k is an opportunity to hold because it is cheap compared to ATH, however you should not invest in bitcoin by selling a car or pledging property to invest. Bitcoin will bounce back and spike could hit new ATH but who knows when it will happen, so don't invest in such a risky way.
Doge will always be a meme so if you invest, be prepared to think about the consequences it will bring, possibly losing everything when you invest in doge.
Dogecoin is much into trading than any other usage. I believe in dogecoin, that it won't make users experience a big loss as Luna Terra or something similar. Dogecoin is one among the earliest to reach the market. It could've got out of the market if it is not prefered. Though it is a memecoin, it have survived almost every bear and bull market. Recently through Elon Musk it gained more visibility and growth.

I don't completely hate memes like doge and shiba, although they don't have any utility, they are actually listed on most major exchanges and have a huge user community. In addition, they are also used as a payment method in some places because of the low transaction fees.
But the risk here is, what if Elon announced to stop supporting and sell all of his dogecoins, doge will be in a dilemma and difficult to get up.
