2881  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Would you try to accumulate now that there is a token pump? on: August 27, 2020, 11:47:25 PM
Let's say you have bought a token for about 1000 satoshis and weeks ago you found out the token is just about 100 satoshis. This means you already lost a lot since that time you hold it.

Now that it started to pump like from 100 sat to 150 sats, would you try to dump and wait again for its dump to at least 120 satoshis to buy back or just keep holding til you profit up to more than 1000 satoshis?
Well it depends on the situation and the reason why it get dump from 1000 to 100 within few weeks. If the reason is because of the whole market bearish status and its going with the flow then I think its understandable. My decision would be depending on the token's status if it is a good one and not the usual token with a pump and dump scheme. If there's a future then I might hold and wait otherwise I will sell and move on.
Yes. If a token has a bright future, then i will not dump it but continue holding until its price reaches another height. Holding is good if youare keeping a coin that has high potentials and will create good value in the next months or years but if the coin you are holding is not moving its value already, better sell it before its value goes to zero.

Usually big exchanges like Binance often hold trading competitions, but to be able to win rewards in trading competition is not easy.
Good knowledge and skills are needed to be able to win trading competition, because the more capital we use and the more trades
we do. So the chance to win a trading competition is quite large.
There is huge profits in trading waiting for us if we have those skills required in trading but if we are a small time traders, then it might be hard for us to excell in trading competitions. Trading can only be profitable if we take high risks in putting big capital so we can expect higher chances of winning.
2883  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How can ICOs come back in the game? on: August 27, 2020, 10:37:47 PM
IEO is now the favorite of the crypto investors because they are earning money through this because ICO is not good choice right now it's cause only losing of money of them in the past few years.

It's hard to rebuild the trust to the ICO because there is a lot of scammer there and many people for sure will never invest again to this because of that happen when they got scammed when they invest to the ICO and some of them thousands upto hundred thousands dollars lost.
If investors and users are now satisfied with how IEO works, then it will definitely be hard for ICO to come back again since investors have only lost their funds during the time of ICO because of scam projects that have become so rampant way back then. IEO might not still be perfect but this crowdfunding has already created good profits for both users and investors.

Not everyone here is from the same country and most don't give out free money.
Many struggle to feed their families, they don't have a chance to make use of this kind of opportunities.
Actually only those who had good income before this situation and they still have it can see this as opportunity. Quite a small subset of world population.
It's obvious that OP didn't think this far and unfortunately complaining even more won't help at all.

I'm sure that many of the ones who could have been using this opportunity didn't, or could have done it better, but many did use it. That's how the world is: some see the opportunity when it comes, some miss it, some don't stand a chance.
Yes. Even in my own country, i see a lot of people are struggling to survive from this pandemic not only because they have lost their full time jobs  but also they can't even think of opportunities to generate an income with this current situation. While others have used this pandemic as a good opportunity to make a living, some are also finding it hard to survive and only waits for this pandemic to just come to an end so they can go back to their own respective jobs.
2885  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin might never reach it's ATH anymore on: August 26, 2020, 11:58:24 PM
Among many improbable predictions concerning the price of Bitcoin, saying that it will never reach it's current ATH again seem to be the most improbable. It's a deflationary currency with real life use case as a store of value and still very early on its technology adoption curve. Since at this point other cryptocurrencies don't really try to replace bitcoin any more, but rather to explore other possibilities offered by blockchain technology, it seem safe to assume bitcoin would reach a new ATH sooner or later.
Instead of thinking it in a negative way, i would chose to be optimistic that one of these days bitcoin will reach another ATH  again. I think it's not impossible because the current position of bitcoin is really good and it's gaining even more interest in the crowd especially when this pandemic has started.
2886  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: looking to the future of crypto on: August 26, 2020, 11:48:44 PM
Currently, there are lots of new crypto projects that have sprung up, but of course, there are also many projects that are just scams, so, we need to be careful before investing in such projects, I think this fraudulent project is what makes investors loss off money and start to lose confidence in the world of cryptocurrency, and so, they are leaving crypto invest  so that cryptocurrency will be more and more abandoned by the people in the future, I think we also have a role to play in being able to stop the growth of fraudulent projects in the future.
Fraudulent projects will never be stopped if investors keep on choosing them for investment. Investors should be more careful particularly in new projects that have suddenly appear in the market because most of the team members on it have only intentions to steal the money and then suddenly the project disappear.
2887  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is Buy and Hold Really the Best Strategy in Crypto? on: August 26, 2020, 08:46:12 PM
------------------
Actually a very informative medium article but i would say that this is somewhat a little bit advanced for some specially if you do really read it up but for those people who do already had the grasp in trading
will really likely able to get it with no problems.

Buy low and sell high might really be that too very basic strategy but it do really works but to know that there are lots of variations on where this buy and sell should be applied and it all goes or vary
into each trader on how they do deal with volatility with corresponding strategy that they made.

It doesnt matter generally as long you do profit then thats whats important.
True. Buy and hold might be the most old and basic strategy in trading but if you are comfortable and still making profits from it, then go on. I believe some traders are just too rush and becomes greedy to make more profits in just a short period of time but still end up regretting because they all lose their capital. The result of trading depends on how a single trader manages its own strategies and works on it.
2888  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to escape loss as an altcoin trader on: August 26, 2020, 08:23:42 PM
It is important that we should learn how to take a profit and not just putting it back in any other coin at all times. I agree with OP on this, we can convert our profit to stable coin instead of putting it in bitcoin which can also dip at any time.
Yes. It's more safe to take our profits once our trading has reached a good point and then convert some of it into stable coins and keep those other profits for future use. Most of us here once we make profits, we tend to buy bitcoin even if its not at its low price and ended up lose our funds because the price suddenly goes down due to its high volatility. Patience is the best virtue in trading but not all of us here are being convinced with it.
2889  Economy / Economics / Re: Second COVID-19 wave is coming...Infinite loop? on: August 26, 2020, 08:00:00 PM
The much discussed second wave is here! While many countries e.g. Brazil and USA are still suffering from the first wave, the second wave has already arrived in Europe, after it looked like the crisis was under control for some weeks.
Everywhere in Europa are strongly increasing numbers of infections like in Spain, France, Germany or Croatia. Many areas are once again being declared risk areas. Will this be the last wave and if not, will it bring the economy to its knees with unforeseeable consequences to the world?
Was having a discussion of this Coronavirus with some people and someone said that the Coronavirus will turn out to be something normal and by then there will be a vaccine or something that will be used to control it just like vaccine is being used to control other kinds of sickness.

I do not know about that, but I really wish that there would be a way to end this Coronavirus once and for all. I don’t want it to continue to exist, I want it to end for good because it’s a serious threat Shocked. For long now I have not looked at the chart to know the number of cases in my country, I am no longer talking about it, because I hate to.
If there is really a second wave for this pandemic, then i think people are now more prepared to combat it but still it will surely take few months to end since the vaccine even in the first wave is not yet totally well developed. Stores and even big companies will be temporarily close again losing their big funds just to protect people working on them.
2890  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Google Opens The Door To Mass Cryptocurrency Adoption on: August 25, 2020, 11:58:28 PM
I would say, it is also open the door to those naive people who will be the next victim of a scam. If Google didn't filter to those who had ads to them, there are a lot of people were getting scam. Because once scam project want a cheap promotion they will choose google ads for their scam attempt.

I wouldn't trust Google on their ads, especially clicking ads. It feels like you are prone to scam if you will do that. I hope they will see this concern and fix it anytime soon.
If this will be approved, this one would be a big hit for crypto since it will be made easier for the people to access crypto transactions. But i guess this one is a fake news since a lot of false information are so rampant today. We'll just find out soon if this will be totally realized or another form of scam.
2891  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Can new crypto beat Eth in the market? on: August 25, 2020, 03:49:55 PM
As far as I know, no one has preceded the position of ETH on coinmarketcap, it's been a long time now.

However, in terms of price, of course there are other coins that are higher.
In my opinion ETH is not matched by other coins, because ETH is always used by many people in transactions, unlike other coins, even though the price is high.
Everything is possible in this crypto market but it would not happen today for sure because ethereum is still in the position next to bitcoin. Maybe few years from now there will be sudden changes when it comes to altcoins and that a new coin is already replacing ethereum or even bitcoin's position but it would not be as easy as that.
2892  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Time to call the people into crypto on: August 25, 2020, 03:21:10 PM
The world is into technological advancement with high and intelligent development of digital platforms purposely to help and make human life into a convenient world.

Today, DeFi catch the mind, heart, or possible even the pocket of interested persons to grab the opportunities to invest. DeFi or known as Decentralized Finance will change the world perspective with regards to Financial matters which every household own some money and do transactions.

Do you think now is the right time to call the people into crypto world?

I'm the kind of person that don't believe in calling people into the cryptocurrency industry. This is because of the volatility and the fact that there's a possibility for them to loose their investment. I'll rather show them the right materials to study about the industry and if they're willing to risk their funds then its their decision. After the 2018 massive dump in the value of cryptocurrencies, there was the wave of people calling cryptocurrency scam and equating the industry to ponzi scheme.
I do believe in crypto but i don't like to suggest people to come into crypto and start investing. Crypto is really a risky investment and if they will lose their funds because of investing without even gaining knowledge first, you might be the one to blame. So let them decide if they want to invest in crypto and tell them honestly that there is no easy way to gain money in crypto. Everything should be work out.
2893  Economy / Economics / Re: The number of jobless people has crossed one million in US - worrying sign? on: August 24, 2020, 11:56:06 PM
The entire world has been screwed by COVID-19 and it will take years for the economies to recover which is why the USA is not an exception just because they are the most advanced and developed country in the world.

Unemployment rates are high everywhere. World governments are trying their best to contain the spread while allowing their people to work. Trump clearly handled the situation in a horrible manner due to which the USA tops the Corona rankings.

Even if Biden wins, the unemployment rates there won't go down anytime soon. This is a long term problem which we simply need to endure.
Unemployment rate are still expected to increase due to the high number ofcorona virus victims. Even if a good vaccine will now be available, countries economy will still take long years for recovery and US is not an excemption to that. Hopefully this new normal might be the start to lessen the jobless people since some of them are already asked to go back to work having their masks and sanitizers with them all the time.
2894  Economy / Economics / Re: Our country was called Province of China. on: August 24, 2020, 11:24:27 PM
I am also worried to see countries that have debts to China. China has a desire to be the most developed and successful country than any other country. we should be able to make our own country a developed country without the help of other countries. I think China wants to colonize other countries in the economic field, if there are already many countries that owe to China then China can control the country or at least China can take over the economy of the country that owes it.
it was sad to hear a country that has a debt to the other country but that is proudful  because they do anything to help thier economy continue . we shouldnt hate china for that but we must thank them because they still have a heart that they help countries that are in need  .

 not only china but all country has an ambition to become the best  , theres no problem with that .  what i dont like is when they threaten the other  . thats not a fair competition anymore
China is said to be helpful to those countries who are badly needed particularly in money concerns but they should not be tolerated in their bad intentions to win over other country's economy. What is happening now is totally an insult to the Filipinos and hopefully this will serve a lesson for us especially the country's leaders that we should not always rely for other countries for our own country's survival but rather prove to them that we can do it on our own.
2895  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is very excited at the moment. on: August 21, 2020, 11:50:17 PM
After much speculation the value of bitcoin has been $12,000. Bitcoin is currently priced at $12,000. Bitcoin has actually been able to show that bitcoin is the king of the crypto world. As the price of bitcoin has risen, so have the prices of other cryptocurrencies. Ethereum, Litecoin etc coin prices have risen. What is going to happen in the market. What do you think about all this cryptocurrency? Let's discuss in detail.
what's going to happen in the market is that the increase in all crypto coins is bound to happen on all exchanges. This is a good moment because bitcoin has increased resulting in an excited market, volume up, buying and selling also increasing. I saw as if this market was coming back to life after a long period of death. and seeing this nice market chart movement makes the heart feel happy
If bitcoin will continie to increase its market price up to the last quarter, potential altcoins will also be affected thus increasing their prices too. This is a good time to hold our coins because even if this market will not be the same with year 2017, but definitely we will still make good profits at the end of the year.
2896  Economy / Gambling / Re: Is it necessary to create an ANN thread? on: August 21, 2020, 10:42:08 AM
The fact that they are here in the forum, we already know their purpose, and that is to promote their gambling site, it's an opportunity as it's free and if they continue to work for the improvement of the site, they should also get involve with the community and that's by listening to suggestions and feedback from bitcointalk users. I believe there's a lot of gambling sites outside the forum that are already popular, but if they can make their site more popular by using this forum, why would not take that opportunity.
2897  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: For the kind attention of the Gambling sites , a small suggestion on: August 21, 2020, 10:29:14 AM

Yes you're right, even exchanges are doing things like that, this is highly dishonest and scammy. Those casinos have to be denounced.
We need a wall of shame in the section.

I hear complaint similar to this, actually we hate that but if that is in their TOS, I guess we have no choice but to comply, otherwise,  we will lose our money. Just like in an exchange, for instance Binance exchange, we can trade without KYC  but if we hit over the limit, then we need to comply with the KYC in order to trade and withdraw our money.
2898  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: August 21, 2020, 07:56:08 AM
Now watching lakers vs portland 0-1 portland win in the first game of the playoff series. This match will probably goes to lakers they had a good cooperation and bigger guys inside the court with Howard, Davis and Lebron. Besides, lakers had also some good shooting players like Green.

What do you think the outcome of this game? Do you agree that lakers will take to win the game this time? I can't waiti to see how Lakers do their play to get tied in the series.

That was a good win by the Lakers. Won by 23 points, big win to even the series. I doubt people would still believe on the hype as they saw how the Blazers got dominated in the game. I think the best series in the West now are the Mavericks vs Clippers.

This is a great game for Lakers.

AD and KCP are on fire, especially AD. A facebook even made a photo of it calling it "Brow time", maybe a tease to Dame's Dame time. I don't know but that hype would really fell with this result still, I think Blazers can do better. We also see Damian injuring his finger with his steal on AD, will that affect the future games of the team?

Latest update on Damian Lillard.  https://www.rotoworld.com/basketball/nba/player/29806/damian-lillard


Quote

DAMIAN LILLARD
PG, PORTLAND TRAIL BLAZERS


Damian Lillard suffered a dislocated left index finger on his left (non-shooting) hand in Thursday's probable loss to the Lakers, but X-rays were negative.
Lillard threw a towel in anger on his way to the locker room, leading some to believe that he might have broken the finger, so the fact X-rays were negative is great news in the grand scheme of things.

He won't return, but is back on the bench and our guess is he'll be out there for Game 3 on Saturday. And it will probably take more than a sore finger on his non-shooting hand to slow him down in that one.

Positive news, he does not broke his finger but he might not play in game 3, but it's still a good news as the series is tied, maybe he can play in game 4 and put that Dame time show again.
2899  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Mike Tyson vs Roy Jones Junior [PPV on Nov. 28] on: August 21, 2020, 06:24:37 AM
since it is an exhibition fight, i guess they have certain limitations and agreement on both sides, whether how far they will go on each other. as the fight might have long lasting effect on their respective bodies. but interesting how this fight will gonna be inside the ring...the comeback of legends!
I hope so because if both fighters don't listen to the agreement or certain limitations, it can trigger to explore their emotions, and in the end, that can be serious fighting between them. If that happens, that will be bloody fighting for both because they are a pro fighter. I think the rounds to fight will not have takes too long because of their health, so they don't have to spend all of their power to that fight. Well, we hope that everything will be okay in the match.
Promoters set the rules of the exhibition fight but they make the rule a war between the two, so don't expect that no one will get harm. This is the rule for those who haven't read it yet. Mike Tyson vs Roy Jones Jr. To Have No Judges; Winner Only To Be Determined By Stoppage
