2741  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How do you feel when the market is downtrend? on: June 11, 2022, 02:14:16 AM
Of course, nobody likes to lose value of money. When there is a bear market, I am also unhappy because the arrows are pointing downwards. I get depressed for a while. I don't want to talk to anyone, I don't want to eat. But I'm recovering later. Then i want to invest continuously. I'm investing even though it's on a steady drop. This way I earn more over a long period of time.

I assume you already did your assessment before investing any of these coins.
Because as you mentioned, you got depressed for a while.
And it may happen again if you haven't achieved your targets. So be ready for that scenario.
Also, better move on if you are not happy with the results. Don't overthink this is why it is always advisable to invest what you can afford to lose.
This piece of advise is simple but a valuable one, to avoid other consequences like emotional turmoil and financial wreck.

Investing what you can afford to lose is a good word for any investment, it works not to worry too much when the market is trending down because they do it with extra money even though the worry is always there.
but mostly they don't really care about those words and invest beyond their means which will lead to depression when the market is in downtrend and i was once in their position because of ambition with big profit but all will be fine as long as patience because in the end The market will reverse direction although it will take a while, and patience is essential for any investment when the market is in a downtrend, and investing what you can afford to lose is also important to keep you cool in any market situation.
2742  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 winner - Real Madrid! on: June 10, 2022, 04:34:27 PM
Although I was among those who doubted Real Madrid in the knockout stages but honestly, those doubts disappeared when Real Madrid got to the final round. Because for me, Real Madrid's journey or process in the knockout stages is not just about luck and it's not easy, because if I consider no team can have that kind of luck. Just imagine, when Real Madrid had to get rid of big teams that were even at their best, but Real Madrid always got a comeback in the second leg. Therefore, if I compare it with Liverpool's journey or process in the knockout stages, Real Madrid is still the favorite in the final. But somehow, at that time Liverpool were the favourites and that reflected in the odds and yes, in the end Real Madrid really had quality and it wasn't just about luck.
"Real Madrid is just lucky" That's the word I've always heard, from the knock-out stage to the final. Real Madrid was lucky to beat PSG in the last 16, Real Madrid was lucky to beat Chelsea in the quarter-finals, and so on. Lol
I couldn't believe they were saying that by luck, until Real Madrid completely silenced those who doubted them.

That has been what many have been saying concerning about Real Madrid that they are lucky till they won the champions league,  Real Madrid has always have the mindset to win every of their and they work towards that . Before Real Madrid won the champions league  , Real Madrid was look in a way that it was impossible to win against Liverpool. Real Madrid team played wonderful game this season,  they  knew they can win their games.
It's all because of the experience and mentality that Real Madrid is very familiar with in every competition, especially in the UCL. If you can judge Real Madrid's performance this season, they only play waiting, focus on defending and then make a deadly counter-attack.
and those tactics and strategies make Real Madrid look not a scary team this season, but Real Madrid is able to judge the opponent's game that allows him to beat him because of his tactics.
Real Madrid can beat the big teams because he knows what to do, all opponents of Real Madrid will have an attacking ambition to score goals and Real Madrid is strengthening defense and just waiting for the momentum. and for next season maybe they will change their game to be more attacking or something.
2743  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is this a good list for longterm investment? on: June 10, 2022, 02:30:58 PM
1/6 Bitcoin (BTC)
1/6 Ethereum (ETH)
1/6 Polygon (MATIC)
1/6 ApeCoin (APE)
1/6 Aave (AAVE)
1/6 Astar (ASTR)
Bitcoin and ethereum are the top choices and before we buy crypto for long term investment, we should do some research on the crypto we are going to buy.
mainly is coin basics, usability, tangible benefits, and it is a good crypto coin choice for long term in my opinion. Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Binance (BNB), Ripple (XRP), Cardano (ADA), Polkadot (dot), Avalanche (AVAX)
2744  Economy / Speculation / Re: Would you be willing to support anyone who gives the most accurate predictions? on: June 10, 2022, 12:30:59 PM
To predict bitcoin or crypto in the future is not an easy task, and many try and many fail even those who are experts. But many of us want to know what will happen next and will go to great lengths to find out and do our own research and analysis which is sometimes more accurate or close.
and I personally don't really believe in the predictions of other people or experts because if I followed them and believed those predictions and ended up being wrong, I would definitely hate them for being wrong.
there's no need to do that and let the market move as it is, because in the long run with an indefinite period of time the market will bounce back, and it's just a matter of time and patience.
2745  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The UEFA Nations League 2020/2021 Discussion Thread on: June 09, 2022, 04:26:58 PM
It's a critical match for Spain, they absolutely need to come back with 3 points, otherwise their chances of reaching the semifinals will diminish.
I think Portugal can draw with Czech Republic. Spain drew in the last minutes.
The only match that I will not miss is the match between Portugal and the Czech Republic this week, apart from being a big match, so far both Czech and Portuguese teams are in a pretty positive trend, and they even managed to achieve the same result, namely one win and one draw  from the two matches, despite the difference in the strength of the existing squad but I think this match will be a fierce match for both teams, especially the Czechs who will indeed try hard to be able to shift Portugal from first position.
Portugal vs Czech Republic, who are currently ranked first and second in the group standings and also have the same points and this match is sure to be fierce, Cristiano Ronaldo is still a player that the visitors seem to have to watch out for.
and considering the previous three meetings, Portugal won twice and the Czechs once, so I'm still optimistic that Portugal can win this match by a narrow score.
2746  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Ryan Garcia vs Javier Fortuna - July 19 on: June 09, 2022, 04:11:12 PM
He needs to fight someone who is a threat to his current record so that he will gonna further stretch his kills to the max and upgrade his power and speed to outmatch his next opponents until he became an undisputed champion himself.
Ryan Gracia undisputed championship record will be further improved if Ryan can win a KO from the boxing fight against Fortuna, Fortuna record is also very strong with a record 26 KO wins throughout his career. So Ryan must go through boxing matches without losing or drawing, because I believe he is optimistic that he can win that fight.
I also think so, Ryan Garcia must maintain his record as a boxer who always wins by knockout against his enemy.
Ryan Garcia is a great hitter and very fast, and at his young age he can stop some top boxers with his punching speed and I'm also optimistic he can beat Javier Fortuna by knockout.
but to say the greatest boxer of all time, I mean impossible, he just started his career but it is possible and depends.
2747  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How do you educate petty traders in adopting Bitcoin? on: June 09, 2022, 03:14:51 PM
It is not easy to educate small traders except for their own awareness because they have to really understand it well which in my opinion really requires a long process so that they can understand well because of fluctuations.
Small traders or wholesalers live off fairly thin margins. Today, small fluctuations in bitcoin can become a big problem even for small merchants who profit from the shopping carts they care about.
but sooner or later they will adapt to technological advances, depending on the future progress of bitcoin and cryptocurrencies and actually there are already small shops that do that but it depends where you live because what they are afraid of is the government.
2748  Economy / Economics / Re: Food crisis coming? What's wrong about it? It could be good on: June 09, 2022, 01:22:12 PM
The food crisis will have an impact on every country that experiences it, but this is not the first problem and it must have been experienced before and the government will not remain silent so that in the end it will return to normal. And every country has a lot of good people and it doesn't have to be rich but they help each other and are not selfish.
and I think Africa is like any other continent with its fair share of poor and rich, you are ready to work then food is available. The only exception is they don't have the equivalent food stamps here.
and for some other reason every country should have very poor areas like Africa and that doesn't mean all Africans are poor, and that's because of bad governance.
2749  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How Bitcoin Nearly Bailed Me Out on: June 08, 2022, 10:51:58 AM
You are lucky because firstly some wallet it is is not possible to screenshot the seed Phrase directly from the wallet but you were able to do that. You are lucky to get access to your old wallet when you were in the tight corner of need of money.
Without a doubt the OP got lucky, how many times we have heard of similar stories in which someone needed some money and they remember they had some bitcoin only to realize the wallet where they stored those bitcoins is no longer available for some reason or they have lost their seed words?

This is a very common scenario, so while I am happy for the OP since he was able to recover that bitcoin and pay up his debts, he needs to keep track of his bitcoin otherwise he may not be as lucky the next time something like this happens to him.
Yes, the OP is very lucky and because of the debt that makes him feel called to do it and remember or wish good luck.
because when in a position of stress by debt or need, and when that happens, it comes to mind to remember some wallets that haven't been used for a long time and try to recover them, and hope There are some bitcoins left behind or forgotten. And I've been in that position before and I did but unfortunately I haven't had any luck.
2750  Economy / Gambling / Re: Online casino. What's the reliability of the technology? on: June 08, 2022, 08:21:11 AM
You can trust the casino license.

The casino does not need to cheat on slot games. If the gambler loses too quickly without ever winning, he will not play the slot again. Smiley
If you don't have a huge balance, you don't have to worry about cheating.


That's why there is a what they called Beginners Luck in which I believe that only a trap for the gambler to continue playing as they experience an early winning and this surely will lure them from here and there playing  , depositing and losing in the future.
try not to believe those promises instead learn from your own mistakes and also never believe that you can literally win in gambling  because the more you play is the more you lose so best to just play with your options and with the amount you allocate to play.

Some people really do believe in beginner's luck. Although that is just a superstition and a coincidence mixed together. But there's actually no harm in trying in believing in it. What's destructive is one's action after achieving what he want after trying. This is often the trigger to be greedy. Some people tend to want more even if it's already beyond what they can handle, hence they end up losing.

It's still a matter of discipline. Let's not blame gambling or advertisements because after all, we still have the freedom to choose.
Well if we will be talking based on our own experiences ? haven't you tried this Beginners luck? because me? yeah for couple of times and actually happens every time that i tried playing new game and bets as well, though not happen every day yet mostly it does.
but you are also correct that it is discipline that will save us from gambling and nothing more
If based on most people's experience I think all beginners or those who start from beginners will be awarded some wins which is how casinos work.
because when they receive a win, beginners will feel happy and make them keep playing which in the end will lose more than win.
So discipline and self-control are very important so that we are not provoked or carried away and must be able to manage playing time at the right time and not overdo it.
2751  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Profitable are Gambling Bots? on: June 08, 2022, 08:03:48 AM
My guess is that in the long term they're not very profitable, unless you're the one selling them Smiley

It might be true that in certain specific conditions you might end up ahead, but those are rare.

The garden variety trading bot will probably lose money in the long term.
I think the use of bots will depend on how long you can profit and if you are no longer profitable, you don't need to use them again.
I'm afraid of using bots if the bot goes beyond what we have set and even causes harm to us.
But sometimes, bots cannot make us enjoy gambling games because the playing process takes place automatically.
But we can't prohibit people who still use bots to gamble.
I agree with you, using bots is tantamount to us not being able to enjoy the pure game and like having no skill or effort to win and it's not for fun but greed and shows a less qualified gambler.
after all, successful betting bots cannot be released to the public, and you will always run the risk of your bot stopping to make a profit, although there are methods that can help the bot update itself with new information.
2752  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How often do you transact in the real world with your bitcoin or digital money? on: June 08, 2022, 03:07:54 AM
I only did it once and it happened unexpectedly and also happened at a very confusing time and bitcoin is the solution, because I made transactions using bitcoins with the right person and also at the right time which happened unexpectedly and you can see it here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5401052.0

bitcoin or other crypto is very useful when we don't have cash in situations and circumstances that we can't do due to circumstances, and other problems in the country where I live bitcoin is prohibited from being used as a type of transaction so no shop or anything is done and only allowed for investment.
but we can still use it privately or transact with fellow bitcoin users and although we can only invest due to certain factors and one day we will do it unexpectedly and this makes us love bitcoin even more because it can help us unexpectedly in chaotic situations.
2753  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 winner - Real Madrid! on: June 07, 2022, 05:42:50 PM
I think, Real Madrid managements will do everything possible to sign in potentian players that will help Real madrid to perform better in next season. I believe, that Real madrid coach will introduce more tactices that will help the both new players and old players to perform better in next season than this season. Those talented players that the management are about to approve into Real madrid, it will really help their defense to be more stronger in next season than this season that made some teams to defeated them in the first leg.

Rudiger has already been signed, and free of charge, and now the negotiations on Tchuameni are entering the final stage. Today I saw the news that the player chose Real Madrid and despite the fact that PSG offer a larger (100 millions vs 80) amount, he asks the Monaco bosses to let him go to Real Madrid. In general, a couple more targeted transfers and Real Madrid will be in the group of favorites to win the Champions League again next season.

Real Madrid has a really good amount of money right now. It is really possible for them to build a really good and strong team for the next season. They have already achieved so much without having a very strong team and I think in the next season if Benzema is in the form again, Real Madrid will be really unstoppable. Tchuimeni has taken the right decision in my opinion because Real Madrid is obviously going to play better compared to PSG in both La Liga and also the Champions League.
Tchouameni has been a bone of contention for several clubs in the top flight, but it is reported that Real Madrid are increasingly optimistic about their chances of winning the race for Tchouameni and are also prepared to shell out big bucks to get him.
Tchouameni is a very talented player and is renowned for his ability to recover and win possession and he is also technically proficient and good at handling the ball through midfield. And this will make Real Madrid even stronger in midfield.
2754  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto Price Up & Down is normal be patient All Crypto Holders on: June 06, 2022, 02:02:23 PM
That only applies to those who have been in this industry for a long time because they have the experience and also enjoy the ride they believe in and also don't care when the price drops again after going up, and they know what to do.
different from the new, because it is only tempted when many people become rich because of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies without being based on sufficient knowledge and also good analysis.
but it is a real journey and many of them hate it when they suffer losses and there are also those who are successful but whatever the reason that happens to them will add users, because the successful ones will survive, and there are also those who fail also survive. And they will learn from their previous mistakes and learn everything well.
So the new one did not make a fatal mistake even though it would affect the market, just a lack of knowledge but with events like this sooner or later it will increase users. And that's the process of becoming popular.
2755  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What can we do to speed up Bitcoin mass adoption? on: June 06, 2022, 01:29:02 PM
it may not be easy and may need total effort but at least  we will see result in goodness and that is we must spread the message of bitcoin to the world  , we all have our social media accounts in which we can use for spreading .
and our friends and family that will extend the spread to their own sets of friends and family's .
why not try extending efforts? this is the problem with most of us that seeking for mass adoption but not doing their contribution in spreading.
I agree, and what we have to do is self-awareness or initiative to spread and understand bitcoin to the closest people, family and also everyone who we think can accept it well.
but it can't be denied that actually a lot of bitcoin or other crypto users without us knowing and they do it themselves because I have found several times they accidentally get involved with bitcoin, and I think sooner or later everyone realizes it and those who haven't because of them do not understand the good use of bitcoin and the difficult problem is only the government they doubt and also fear.
2756  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar - UEFA Qualifiers on: June 05, 2022, 05:54:51 PM
After the first half, Wales wins with a score of 1-0, but it seems to me that this is far from the end and in the second half there will be more goals scored (and perhaps Ukraine will continue to score, the main thing is not to go into their own net this time  Grin ).
Quotes for the victory of Ukraine look attractive:

1.55 - 3.33 - 7.84

It may be safer to bet that Ukraine will not lose in regular time.
Wales were lucky that Yarmolenko made a mistake that the man shouldn't have, the latest news that Bale is really determined to take Wales to the world cup is likely to be successful considering the 1 goal lead at the moment gives the team confidence. Ukraine the ball possession statistics better, the match for the second half has started I wonder if there are any surprises.
But I think the opportunity to draw is currently difficult although ukrania can still attacking wales, the odds are quite tempting to bet on draw.
There seemed to be no hope for Ukraine to equalize as time was running out, it should have ended in a goalless draw had Yarmolenko not made a mistake.
and Weles were just lucky and the only goal came through a Yarmolenko own goal after mistaking Gareth Bale's free kick.
2757  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bearish market continues? on: June 05, 2022, 04:05:17 PM
~Snip
I fear that we should not be really losing hope about bitcoin, the price going down sounds like losing hope about bitcoin and it should not be like that, you should be trusting it to go up again.
Optimistic, yes we have to stay optimistic about something good on the bitcoin price. In the long term there will probably be no doubt, but some concerns are possible in the short term. I believe the price will recover and we will see a break of resistance, but it may take some time for that given that several attempts towards the $35K level still failed after dump to $26K on May 12th.

I am keeping my previous optimistic projections for the next week and think that in the very near future we could see the price pushing to $35K. But, breaking through the $30,500 resistance is the first and most critical step here. If this resistance level is broken, we can expect to see a short term rally to the $32,000 level with a lot of money flowing back into the bullish direction. Let's see where it takes us then…

Optimism will increase our confidence in bitcoin and bitcoin movement should touch the $33,500 level to start a bullish phase towards the $35,000 price which I think is still struggling to reach that price.
and if bitcoin is unable to maintain its current level or returns to a price below $30,000, it will continue its bearish period reaching $28,000. But certainly will rise again above $ 30,000 in the near future.
It is difficult to predict the bitcoin price accurately for the short term because the accurate only applies to the long term.

The accident on the first lap was spoiled, all three riders were out of the race. Then there were accidents and the number of finishers decreased. But the highlight of the day was Aleix Espargaró, who slowed down thinking the race was over. There was still one more lap in the race, but he started to take a victory lap as if the race was over. The lack of headphones for team communication in Moto GP causes such incidents. It was a tragic event. Congratulations to Fabio Quartararo, who won the race.
The collision itself started when the race was just starting Takaaki Nakagami made a mistake, and he was too fast at the first corner and made him crash into Alex Rins and Francesco Bagnaia. And it was reported that Rins and Nakagami were taken to the medical center.
Very unexpected with what happened to Aleix Espargaro and perhaps communication problems that kept him out of focus, and congratulations also to Fabio Quartararo for being the race leader in the Catalunya MotoGP.

feel free to message me or comment below  Smiley
If you want to borrow money just to bet, you should look and remember your previous footsteps when betting, do you often win or always win when betting with your own money?
and if you often lose when betting and want to apply for a loan to bet and for whatever reason it's very silly, because when you bet with your own money you always lose.
it only makes you suffer, already suffering will destroy you. Think carefully before you regret and reflect before doing it.

Robert Kiyosaki made the concept seem too easy to implement, but it wasn't.
And enough people have fallen for practicing the teachings of Robert Kiyosaki, and his teachings are not wrong, but they are incomplete and make the situation seem much simpler than it really is.
and actually the concept must be equipped with discipline and consistency and also requires strong patience to create perfect results, and many good concepts from famous people but it all depends on the person who lives it.
and entering when the market is crashing is a good option and I agree with this and also most people do this depends on their patience waiting for the market to bounce even though it takes a very long time.
