Blackwater Bossings -2.5
Magnolia Hotshots -15.5

Maganda nilalaro ng Blackwater ngayong conference kaya sa tingin ko macocover nito ung -2.5 laban sa Phoenix. Sa Magnolia naman, wala nang eksplanasyon jan basta pakiramdam ko macocover nila ung spread Smiley.
2982  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Would you guys invest meme coins now? on: July 08, 2022, 06:47:46 AM
What would you guys do about this meme coins project? are you guys ok to invest in these coins or rather not invest this time? because most famous coins like shib, and doge are now in the dip as we can see.
Right now I'm not and if there will be a time that I will invest into meme coins, I will only buy DOGE and nothing more.
Tried to invest a few dollars into one meme coin and it turned out to be a fail investment because I lost most of my money there.

There are many coins out there that are far better than meme coins. Why thinking of investing into it? There are many coins out there which are safer to invest with than meme coins. Maybe you can try and buy some DOGE and SHIB because like you said it is down already but for me, meme coins are just for short term profits and not a good long term coin to hold.

If you were the casino manager would you fire the casino worker for interfering with your business or would you ban the gambler from visiting the casino?
Nope. It's called empathy.

The worker is just aware on what is happening on the gambler thus, he is helping him to prevent losing even more money. Maybe it's still ok to gamble despite losing so much as long as you aren't affecting anybody but in this case, it's his wife and the twins that are affected. The money that is supposedly to be used for the newborn twins are going to the casino.

The question is kinda subjective in a way because not all managers are different. Some managers might see this as a bad thing because it affects the revenue of the casino but on the other hand, some managers have a good heart. Banning the gambler? I don't think so if I'm the manager but maybe I will just continue to give some advice to him especially in his current situation that he has 2 babies.

This is probably the worse game of Mikey Williams, looks like SMB really did a great job on defending him because he is still not in double-digit as of now. Well, the game is not over yet, let's see if he will explode in the last and final quarter.

Unusual to see Mikey Williams having that off-night performance. It looks like SMB really goes hard on him.

The scoring machine guy from TNT was able to stop by the SMB and successfully manage to limit his usual average.

SMB is now returning again to their fierce performance now especially that JMF is now doing his usual JMF thing like before.
Williams got 11 points only with 3-14 shooting.
I don't know if Williams only has a bad night or the TNT was just exposed with this one.

If this is only a bad night for Williams then he must step up and recover himself in their next game against the 2nd seeded Brgy. Ginebra San Miguel. Now there might be a chance that SMB exposed them because aside from Williams, no one can step up offensively and carry his team to victory. Either way, SMB is now at the top spot again and it looks like they are starting to get along with each other. JMF back in his MVP numbers and the acquisition of Cruz and Enciso really helped the team because we know how good these 2 are in three-point shooting.

May bear market thread tayo pero on this thread gusto ko malaman ang mga ways niyo to survive this season. Para din mag ka idea at magabayan ang mga baguhan na makakaexperience ng bear market season.
Nakahold, nakastake at patuloy lang sa pag-work para may pambili ng Bitcoin.

Nakahold lang ako sa mga Bitcoins ko sa Electrum at hindi ko gagalawin un ng at least 3 years siguro.
Bukod sa paghohold ng Bitcoins, gustong gusto ko rin mag hold ng mga staking coins kaya ngayong bear market ay nakahold lang rin ako sa mga staking coins ko gaya ng ADA, CRO, CAKE, AXS. Sa ganung paraan, hindi lang siya nakastore sa wallet pero dumarami rin ang amount ng coins na hawak ko thru staking.
Habang nangyayari tong 2 na ito, patuloy pa rin ako sa pag-work at nagtatabi ako ng portion ng monthly income ko pambili ng Bitcoin at Ethereum.

There is a rumor that Pacers are interested on the services of DeAndre Ayton. They are negotiating a sign and trade centered on Miles Turner.

However, we have heard that Phoenix is also interested on KD. If they push this one, they might be erasing their chances to land the KD sweepstakes. Or it might take more players from them, maybe they will have to include Booker now or Crowder and Bridges.
Now, speaking of KD, I've seen a proposed trade on Facebook (NBA Buzz) between the Timberwolves and the Nets.

The Nets wanted KAT, Edwards and 4 first round picks in exchange for Durant. Well, the Timberwolves declined on it and I think it is a good choice knowing that KAT and Edwards are still young and talented as well. The Wolves' management don't want to give these young players to KD.

With regard to KD going to Phoenix, I don't know what will the Nets try to get in exchange for him but just basing on what the Nets asked with the Timberwolves, there is a chance that they might try to get Booker and/or Ayton and some first round picks in exchange for KD.

We won’t even know how he found out about this scam gambling site until he let us know. He may just be a victim of its scattered advertisements in various corners where it can be placed just like the aforementioned explorers. He may also have just been drawn to fake reviews or highlight promotions without first knowing the overall background of this site. They probably have a lot of money from what they stole and they are stealing. Even if they end up shutting down their website, they won't lose the way to create a new one.

That is what is happened to those who are in a hurry and do not practice first or even find out if it is trustworthy or if there is no trace of fraud.
Maybe because of the explosive advertisements of 1xbit to different platforms such as youtube. There is many youtubers who have a good amount of subscribers who where sponsored by this 1xbit casino. Some of those youtubers really push people to deposit by giving them referrals and to good to be true bonuses. This is why I push myself to comment on every video where I can see 1xbit casino promotion. We can't do anything about victims ignorance in searching if a casino is reputable, Information is available in the internet  Roll Eyes There are hundreds of victims of that casino right now and we currently have others who's case aren't being resolve or 1xbit doesn't want to resolve because of it's nature in scamming.

And the sad part, they will only come here once screwed by the site.
But that's an expensive lesson for anyone. I don't think he will make the same mistake again.
Now that the OP is here in the forum, he can find a lot more reputable casinos in the gambling board.
I believe 1xbit really does have a lot of ads outside this forum, even most of the review sites are giving them a good rating.
There is a high chance that those reviews as well are paid just to make 1xbit clean.
Sorry for the loss OP, but now that you are here already, you can find many and more reputable gambling sites here. 1xbit really is an expert when it comes to scamming gamblers and still, there are many who are trying to bet on their platform which is unfortunate, but there is nothing we can do. There are numerous warnings here already, but the problem is it is only here, and you always see the advertisements of 1xbit everywhere outside Bitcointalk. Many more will be scammed by this scam site in the future for sure.

Anyway, HEX is a shitcoin and it has been promoted many times here already in the past. You made profit from it? Congratulations Smiley. Profit is profit whatever it is.

As for me, I'm not expecting myself to be a millionaire for a short amount of time. I'm slowly accumulating until I reach the point that all of my assets will reach a million whether it is from crypto or from stock market. Right now, I'm far from it and my profits got disappeared because of what happened in the market as well.

2989  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: July 07, 2022, 07:19:36 AM
Durant wants to play in a team where there is at least 2 all-star players on it because that is his only way to get a ring and lets face it, that's one of the main priorities if you really want to win a title. You need at least 2 all-star players in a team. Him staying in the Nets is possible as well but I don't think that he will be that productive if he will stay because he really wants to be out with the Nets and find another team. Another thing as well is that, KD will not be motivated because he will be surrounded by a bunch of average players. Kyrie wants to be out and you can't rely on Simmons anymore after what happened to him.
I don't like this idea of combining Durant with 2 stars again. The Nets team already proved it doesn't work. The Miami Heat with Wade, Lebron, Bosh, and Allen is also a proof of it. They didn't win the 1st year and was defeated by the Mavs. It's only the 2nd year where they make it work.
If I were Durant, I'd rather pick a team where I would lead. Like Charlotte Hornets for example but I doubt they can afford him or they have nothing much to offer for the trade.
The other choice is like what other members said, stay with the Nets. Let them decide to trade Kyrie instead of him.
The thing is Durant can't lead a team that is why he wants to join a team that has at least 2 superstars and with the current era, you need at least 2 superstars in order for you to win a title. Just see the past champions. They have at least 2 superstars. I'd like to see Durant lead a team as well but he can't. He just can't.

He went to the Warriors because he knows that Klay and Steph can help him get his first title and he got 2 there. Now after getting injured, he thought that he wants to be a leader with his own team thus, he requested a trade and went with the Knicks with Kyrie and Harden. Obviously, it didn't work that well after 3 years because Durant can't be a leader to his team and Kyrie can't do it either.

Bradley Beal has negotiated in a 251 million 5 year deal and has a no trade clause in the contract. He is the only player in the league who has a true no trade clause in the contract. Beal is very very lucky to have earned a contract like that to be honest. From my point of view. Its definitely not worth it for the organisation. Beal is a good player but I don't consider him a superstar to be earning such contracts.
Instead of him going to other teams and search for his first championship, he chooses to stay with a team where he can't win a title. Beal has no future with the Wizards and he can't get a title there unless he will be accompanied with another superstar that will help him. Beal is a talented player and a good scorer. I just don't know why he chooses to stay in Washington. Loyalty? Even though he can't get a championship there.
2990  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Roller coasters!!! on: July 07, 2022, 06:31:02 AM
The market is very volatile in this month like a roller coaster movement, Is the roller coaster movement in the money market both the price of bitcoin & ethereum whale controlling it?
Ohhh I thought that the word "whale" will not be used now as I've not heard that term anymore.
Well, lets not blame the whales here or those large traders and institutions.

However, I know that the market is volatile in nature but right now, I don't see any roller coaster movement especially with Bitcoin who is right now sitting at around the $19,000-$20,000 price range. It is moving sideways for about a week already and I'm curious into which direction will it go but with what is happening worldwide, there is a chance that it might go down even lower than $17,000 which is the recent lows.

i mean what if bitcoin isn't exist , what if bitcoin wasn't created.
If it wasn't created, then we will still be in a same financial system where everything will be paid using fiat currency. We will still be in a financial system where the value of the currency we have is slowly decreasing and there is nothing we can do about it because it is the only currency that we have.
If Bitcoin didn't created or existed then it didn't existed or created. Is there any answer to it?

Re: What If Bitcoin Fall??
If Bitcoin falls then you said it already, people will buy but unfortunately, that isn't the case for most of the investors. Investors tend to be more scary and panicking right now instead of taking the opportunity to buy and accumulate Bitcoins at a cheaper price. Who are the ones that are buying right now? Large institutions, intelligent investors and those who are taking the opportunity right now.

[1] ROS Elastopainters +4.5
[2] Terraferma Dyip +14.5

Mukhang di ko gusto ang pick ko, hehe.. pero doon nalang ako sa opposite baka malasin ang favorites at mag cover ang mga underdog.
Ito narin ang magandang way siguro na para makahabol, good luck nalang sa atin guys.

Parepareho tayong tabla hahaha, alanghiyang Bolts yan hindi pa na cover yung -4.5, apat lang inilamang pero ganda ng dikit na laban kahit kelan talaga tong ROS pag kinokontra ko palagi na lang naka cover ng handicap, parang nung last time lamang ng 9 points yung kalaban bigla pang naka pasok ng tres eh -7 ung handicap alat lang talaga, buti ngayon hindi pinatawad ng Ginebra ung terra grabe yung lagtaw ng lamang..
Kung naipasok lang ni Quinto ung last free throw niya noon, covered sana ung -4.5 kaso sinadya niyang i-mintis kasi nag aalangan sila sa maaaring gawin ng ROS. Ung Ginebra-TerraFirma, mejo expected na ung outcome sa akin pero ang di ko lang inexpect is ung kalamangan ng Dyip papasok ng halftime. Ang inexpect ko is malayo na kaagad ung lamang simula pa lang pero lumaban ang Dyip. Gayunpaman, natalo pa rin sila at nananatiling walang panalo sa ngayon.

NLEX Road Warriors -4.5
TNT Tropang Giga +1.5

Maganda ang pinakita ng NLEX kontra sa Magnolia nung huling laban nila kaso nga lang naubusan sila ng lakas pagdating ng 2nd half kaya natalo at natambakan sila pero sila ang pipiliin ko.

Sa kabila naman, napakahirap pumili sa totoo lang kasi nasa 3 game winning streak ang SMB at 5 game winning streak naman ang TNT. SMB fan ako pero sa tingin ko, tatalunin ng TNT to sa tulong ni Mikey Williams. Manonood rin ako nito sa TV Cheesy.
2993  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: July 07, 2022, 05:26:47 AM
The Nets are looking for something worthy of the trade. That's a fact.

Brooklyn Nets are waiting for a big offer for sure. Durant has no choice but to wait.

Besides, the Nets don't need to take rush action until no big offer came.

Unfortunately for Kevin Durant, his preferred team, Miami Heat and Phoenix Suns won't likely sign him as getting him means sacrificing the main and key players of those teams. It's not good to keep a player like Durant that is not interested anymore to play with the team but for me, maybe Durant just feels disappointed with what happened to his teammates that supposed to help him. The best move for me is, to stay with Brooklyn Nets and try to see what the team will do to enhance their overall roster next season.

Won't be harmful to test another year out of his 4 years big contract remaining for the Nets to see for some improvements. The Nets experienced some key injuries and drama last season and hopefully, no such thing will happen next season.
There is low to no chance that either the Suns or the Heat will get Durant for some reasons.
As for the Nets, they are just waiting for a good trade package deal for them. I watched a video on Youtube hours ago and if I remember correctly, what the Nets wanted for Durant is an all-star also as well as some draft picks.

Durant wants to play in a team where there is at least 2 all-star players on it because that is his only way to get a ring and lets face it, that's one of the main priorities if you really want to win a title. You need at least 2 all-star players in a team. Him staying in the Nets is possible as well but I don't think that he will be that productive if he will stay because he really wants to be out with the Nets and find another team.

2994  Economy / Speculation / Re: Have we reached a bottom price for BTC? on: July 06, 2022, 08:29:41 AM
Bitcoin seems to be struggling to get past $20k - $21k over the past days. There's a possibility it could go further down the drain due to the worsening of the global economy. Some say BTC will go all the way down to $15k within a matter of months, while others say BTC will be worth less than $10k soon. The market is extremely unpredictable right now, so it's hard to tell if BTC has reached the bottom, or if there's still room for a further downtrend in price. I'd be surprised if BTC continues to fall down in price all the way to $8k and below. Our only hope would be the next BTC halving and a swift recovery of the global economy.

What do you think? Has BTC reached the bottom? Will you buy more regardless of BTC's current market price? Your input will be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much. Smiley
Right now, $20,000-$21,000 is the current resistance and we are seeing it already because whenever Bitcoin goes above it, it immediately goes below it.
$15,000? It might happen since there are no changes to what is happening globally. Economy of every country is at it's worst, inflation is increasing and interest rates as well. I don't see Bitcoin going below $10,000 though.

In my opinion, Bitcoin is going sideways right now so I might say that $17,000 is the bottom already though anything can still happen. Right now, every time I have spare money, I'm saving it to buy Bitcoin instead of spending it to some useless things or anything that I want.
2995  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are bounty programs or airdrops more profitable to participate in? on: July 06, 2022, 04:15:09 AM
Can you make more money participating in bounties or airdrops? I made the most money doing airdops so far, like the one from Uniswap, but long term, I think bounties like the one from candlelabsdotorg will pay off better. What do you think? Which of these methods of earning free crypto should I pursue?
A few years ago, you might make money with bounties and airdrops and I experienced it so I can say it.
Now, I'm not into it anymore but I think bounties and airdrops right now are just a waste of time. I just don't know why there are still some people who are spending their time on bounty campaigns knowing that their chance of being paid is very low to close to zero.

Uniswap is an exception because it became successful after the airdrop and there are some airdrops in the past that became successful as well but most of the projects are ending up being an abandoned or a dead project.

What do I think? Nahh just find another job and spend it there and not on bounty campaigns and airdrops which will give you nothing but shitcoins. Methods of earning free crypto? I'm not sure TBH. Maybe faucets is the way or staking but you need initial capital to do it.

BTW, we have games tomorrow after that Sunday break.

ROS vs Bolts
Dyip vs Gin Kings

Will the Dyip continue running with their losing streak on?  Grin
Dyip is the new Blackwater right now Cheesy.
Well, if only they will not made some useless trades in the past then they must've created a good team that can compete with other teams right now but.. it is what it is.
The streak continues especially that they are facing the top team Ginebra San Miguel and they will get a playoff spot with their win.

Bolts Vs. ROS. Both are struggling teams right now but ROS is at the bottom with only 1 win compare to Bolts' 3 so maybe I will go with Meralco with this one.

In light of recent events, do we seem to be entering the longest crypto winter in the history industry crypto.?
Why are we basing the next moves of the companies base on mere deletion of tweets only?
These are companies and for sure they will come back again sooner. They just didn't expect what happened maybe that's why they lost funds and there are many companies who lost funds in crypto as well so all of us are lost Cheesy. They aren't bankrupt as of now so there is a chance that they will recover and come back.

With regards to your last question, we might enter the longest crypto winter or we might now but one thing is for sure though, that we are already in a situation where those who has cash left on their hand will be the ones who will get wealth after this bear market. We are in a survival mode for now and even those companies are. Companies going bankrupt, CEX halting withdrawals etc.

Meralco Bolts -4.5
Barangay Ginebra Kings -14.5

Nasa bottom part ang ROS at hindi maganda ang nilalaro ngayon kaya sa tingin ko macocover ng Meralco ung -4.5
Must win naman para sa Ginebra dahil makakakuha na sila ng playoff spot kapag nanalo sila rito kaya gagawin nila lahat.

2999  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: July 06, 2022, 02:09:12 AM
For sure they will never try to get durant back as the Nets ask those young guys of Warriors which can help then in future, If they trade them for Durant its like they are risking their future to a injury prone guy and proven that he can't lift a team so its good that they retain their young core and develop more other rookies rather than breaking it and get a problem which they already get rid.

No worries, that's unlikely won't happen. Just imagined how much the Warriors will spend to get Durant to re-sign to them. Not a good idea to get Durant involved in their Championship lineup. It's not that they don't need Durant, but salary-cap wisely, there's no need to spend more for another superstar.

They can use their remaining cap to acquire role players that can improve their second squad.

Lots of good prospects at the free agency that they can target instead of getting Kevin Durant's service that's now entering his post-prime period.
If that's the case, then it's a good decision for the Warriors management.
I mean, I'd rather have some younger and talented players than a player who is almost entering his post-prime period like you said. The Warriors can use Poole and Wiggins for a longer period of time, and they might be the new face of the franchise if the Big 3 will step down on their performance.

Well, I just read that article that the Warriors are interested in getting Durant, but personally I don't want it either, especially with the beef between him and Green in the past. Utilizing their younger players would be better for the Warriors. Developing Kuminga, Moody and their recent draft pick if it fits to the system. Getting role players right now would be better, especially with Payton II leaving the team, they really need another good defender right now. I'm a bit curious on which players will they get, especially a defensive player.

With the continuous downslide of the Bitcoin and the crypto market at large, is it too soon to say that we might likely be witnessing the end of it all?
Hell NO!!!!
These also happened in the past but Bitcoin is still there. There are many saying that Bitcoin is dead blah blah but it is still here. Just because of institutions making bad decisions that you will say that Bitcoin will end? Maybe it's your first time to see Bitcoin moving like this that's why you are like others who are panicking right now saying that Bitcoin is dead or Bitcoin will end here or any shit that you can say to it.

Bitcoin will stay as long as there are supporters of it and right now, adoption is still increasing despite the bear market. People getting involved into crypto are increasing. Don't say that it will end just because of some news out there.

but something else takes the top spot.
Who will take the top spot if I may ask? Smiley
