3081  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: we can still rely on the bounty.. on: January 28, 2022, 11:27:55 AM
Every opportunities in crypto space is worth seizing, I'm here today in a very happy shape because I always take chances with crypto I've joined over 500 airdrops since 2017 and few gives good rewards while many failed or refuse to pay up and bounty is even better it's just that not every projects have good team some will keep their promises while some won't, bounties and airdrops should be taken lightly because good results isn't guaranteed
I can't imagine joining 500 airdrops... But, it was a little bit interesting to know how much you get from them?

Anyways, 2017 is a great year for airdrops, I did some participation during those days and seems I was too lucky to have some coins with unexpected high market value. But for now, I'm not sure if there are still valuable airdrops that we could find. As even joining 500 airdrops, maybe only less than 1% could give you a few bucks while the rest are worthless and shitcoins.
3082  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Show a newbie the way on: January 28, 2022, 10:59:15 AM
Now that bear market is slowly taking over the market what can a newbie do to make money in a bear market? Staking is a bad idea in bear market I heard, even mining coins are not profitable in bear market too so what's the way forward?
There is no other way to make a profit during the bear market and that is to buy more (depending on your capabilities), hold, and then wait for the bullish market. That probably takes months ( or even years) to wait for the next Bullrun but we can assure you that investing the right coins is in no doubt for profitable results.

I'm not sure if newbies could easily adopt the changes but if they got enlightened by what they have heard and seen the market history, it is likely it could encourage them to make steps.

If it doesn't work out In a single trade take a rest and try again some other day.
Agree with you, don't force ourselves in trading. If it seems to not work well and the market situation is not friendly enough, it is better to stop trading temporarily.

This is the common reason why people had failed and lose their money. There is so much pressure from themselves to learn trading which wasn't the thing to do. And in fact, many people wanted to take the shortcut but somehow, they don't find any. We simply can't just underestimate the market nor we can even be wiser as it was because nobody can predict what will happen next. And this is a reason why traders especially newbies suffer losses before they learn more and become experts.

Honestly, nobody had become wiser than the market even trading experts can't compare to it.

Well, forget all of them OP as they are not the cause for Bitcoin becoming valuable.

It is simple, people will invest in Bitcoin for some reason but the top of it is to gain profit. We can't assume that those people who no interest in Bitcoin will invest, definitely no and they keep rejecting this opportunity rather than risking their money. As for them, they will enjoy other stuff as you have mentioned rather than talking and searching about crypto.
3085  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Thurman vs Barrios - Feb 5 on: January 27, 2022, 12:20:36 PM

Mostly, the popular boxer will get the better odds or the favorite to win the fight, in this fight, we know who is the popular boxer although no one of the two is a champion. We stick with what we think and bet on the boxer we believe will get a win on this fight. Thurman has been so successful in the past (less Pacman fight), so I think he is still on his prime and could still win a battle.

I agree, especially with this division like what I have said the trainings and drills to condition his body is not hard for him to achieved,

temporary absence but for sure he still doing some daily routine to make sure that his body is still fit and once this kind of opportunities

knocks, he's willing and ready to take another shot.

The only thing right now is the assumptions of every fan. We can point out our opinions, but the outcome still depends when the fight takes place.

No one could really ascertain the result of this fight, whether it could be Thurman or Barrios will come out as a winner, but knowing how aggressive boh fighters are, I like to expect that we will see a great fight where no one will back down until the end, however, we have our own choice and as for me, it's always Thurman from the start.

But we are certain if we place our bet, we have our own prediction and we are confident that we will win, that's what gambling is, we don't think of losing that's why sometimes if we lose we cannot accept the result. This fight, win or lose, my bet will go to Thurman as well.

Cavs had a good second half and kept the Buck only at 42 points. But also I would like to point out the second quarter. Kevin Love and Cedi Osman didn't start in first 5 but they got in at the 2nd quarter and they were the big factors in the 39-22 second quarter run. And then Cavs kept the defence strong and Bucks couldn't catch up with them. Their getting the Rondo from Lakers move is proving to be quite beneficial, even though he is not playing so many minutes. Nevertheless, his contribution was well enough to get them ahead. I wonder if they can show enough performance to go far on the playoffs.

I think it was really Kevin Love who glue the team together this season. I mean there are talks that he wants to be traded at the beginning, but it didn't push through. Luckily for him and the Cavs, he did stay and then they become a stronger team. Definitely they are going to the playoffs this year and then could pull surprises or at least push other teams to even 7 games and win the series against top teams.

They could be in the playoffs but I doubt they'll pass the round one, with a team that lacks experience in the playoffs, I don't expect them to succeed right away. It's already a good improvement for them to make it to the playoffs, and I think that's enough for this season, just learn the experience and improve by next season.
3087  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who creates more impact in bitcoin price the Hodlers or Investors? on: January 26, 2022, 11:03:43 PM
The two main factors of bitcoin market hodlers and the investors sometimes I query myself about how much impact they have made in the price of bitcoin.

Note: The hodlers are early abductors of bitcoin that held their funds till date
         The investors are the early abductors that sold and invested into their business then later invested their profits into bitcoin. E.g Michael Saylor or Elon Musk.
If one of them is manipulating the market, then one of them is having a huge influence on the price but there is none, they can be both of the same influence on the market trend. Investors are also Holders, even trading can be also considered as holders(sometimes). They have different market plays, buying, holding... all the time the market price moves, not just because all people are holding nor they are buying but as these people went so active, up and down is most likely what we see.

Knowledge is always a big factor when doing your investment, if you know how to handle things around your chance of succeeding is good, those mentioned coins have their different characteristics, doing your deeper research will allow you to understand how things work and how will you able to gain decent compensations.

Know to value the project and the progress that the team continues to develop, they are the key contributors to the success of each project.

Do your homework to avoid losing your money..
HOW?
This is a simple question that people are asking and it was too hard to answer. And why? it is because we don't know what will gonna happen next and even TA or whatever it is isn't enough nor is it guaranteed for something like that. And this is the reason why many people still fall into shitcoins and they believe and think that these coins will grow and make them profitable.

It is really hard to pinpoint which one is a really profitable coin but for me, I'd choose those coins that have a huge market volume and are listed to known exchanges as that will be our assurance to earn profit.

Lakers winning is a great thing for them, with AD back and all they will need a few more wins, but looking at the 6th spot, Denver is a lot more ahead and I do not think that Lakers could be there anymore. It is either 8th or 7th for Lakers if you ask me, and that is "usually" means first round exit.
There are still plenty of games and the competition is very tight, so even if the Lakers now do not have a good standing, with consistency in winning, they could be in the top 4. As long as AD also remains healthy, they are a stronger team as Lebron does not have to carry the burden every time they have a game. AD might not be in his full capacity but his presence is merely enough to give the team the energy they needed to win.

NLEX and Gin kings are hot, but we know both TNT and SMB are both capable of chasing the title.

We will see which team will excel and advance to the next round.. Tongue Roll Eyes


We will know in the elimination, most likely the NLEX will get a twice-to-beat advantage, and against a lower seed team, they will probably succeed.  The rule of the import in this conference is very vital, and NLEX are lucky to have a great import that could compete with the best import like Brownlee.
3091  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is El Salvador in debt because of the bitcoin price drop? on: January 25, 2022, 10:59:19 PM
no one can answer whether there is a debt or not el salvador at this time because only bukele knows,
in bitcoin ownership i think everyone is losing a huge amount due to the current price drop,
But since the purpose of abitcoin in this country is to use Bitcoin as a currency and coins bought by countries exist to support/help the flow of money, I don't think there's a downside there.
They are in debt but not only because of Bitcoin. That is why I don't agree with OP stating that way as it can't be particular which and where El Salvador got that huge debt. Perhaps, the country itself isn't focusing on Bitcoin alone, there are many things that went busy and they also spend money for that.

As we know that Bitcoin price is unstable, losses can also be expected if we sell them during corrections. But I think Mr. Bukele didn't do it but instead of keeping it.
3092  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Start In Crypto Without Investment on: January 25, 2022, 10:34:36 PM
On this forum, if you have the ability then there are many things that you can do to start crypto without having to invest first. The good information, will help members here who really want to do it. Please note that getting crypto cannot be free, we must first try to do something before we will get crypto because there is no crypto that can be obtained for free. If anyone offers crypto that can be obtained that easily without trying then it could be a scam. So be wiser and be careful in utilizing the crypto world.

Time and Effort could be considered as an investment, not only money. In fact, what we do for now like doing signature campaigns is simply we are making an investment as well. We don't look for free anymore as this never exists in real life and indeed you're right, it was a scam thing that offers free like airdrops.

If we could spend money and time hanging outside, I think we can spare a few bucks and time into investing crypto as well. In fact, we are looking for a better future and this possibly will give us.

Cleveland against the Knicks, I will put my money on Cavs -5.5.

i go with Knicks ML because its destiny in my opinion



Destiny for them to lose, lol. bad pick man, better luck next time. If you get the handicap, you could have won the game, but like I said, better luck next time, I hope you'll win.

lol thats ok

back to biz with wizards ... WAS-LAC
its scary to bet on winner this match
bet on Kuzma 27.5 /pts/reb/assists/


Wow, that seems interesting, what's the odds for that one?

Last game on the same player prop, Kuzma only manage to make 20 because he only score 12 points on their loss, but it was a slow scoring game and they only scored 87 points against the 116 of the Celtics.

When he plays bad, the coach should not allow him to continue messing up, that's the role of the coach, put the players who contribute and not to mess with the team. If the coach was Greg Popovich, he would certainly bench Westbrook if he is shooting bricks.
Exactly, it's on the coach responsibility to act what's good for the whole team, there are other point guard that can play that role even LBJ can do that, though I doubt it this time around. Good thing it's just Vogel and not Pop and I think the notion to replace Vogel was the better decision the Lakers management may do, just an opinion.
start with the coach as it's easier to find a coach, if the new coach still could not handle the job effectively, then they should try to destroy the roster and that is by trading some high paid players, first in the list should be Westbrook, sorry for that. haha

Perhaps they just got Westbrook wherein he might be starting to decline as far as game play is concern. He is committing a lot of turn-overs, then bad shot after bad shot. When he drive and go for a dunk sometimes he is even block. Unlike during his prime wherein no one can go toe to toe with him when he is airborne. So yeah, it might be a good idea to trade and get other players that will jive with Lebron.

Westbrook seemed to forget that it's not his team, he is playing with Lebron and still Lebron is the leader of the team. Westbrook does not need to play his usual like when he was still with OKC as stat padding would never work with the Lakers since there's no big one, but a big 3.

snip~
This is a great news and another win for all of crypto people. It very interesting how south American countries continues to accept and adopt crypto, this for me should be a wake up call for other countries and Continent to key into this stream because crypto is the future.

It is also important that measures are put in place so that hackers and scammers don't take advantage of this highly demanded initiative of crypto community.
Indeed. Having another South American country to adopt bitcoin and install its first bitcoin atm machine is another good achievement for bitcoin. Hopefully, as this country will continue to prosper with bitcoin having as a new currency, it will also create a good remarks on other countries to do the same thing for their country and start to adopt bitcoin too.

However, this bearish season might be somewhat a barrier as the price of bitcoin continues to decline but if they will start to study and go deeper with bitcoin, they will come to realize that this is the best time to enter the market and start buying.
Well, it is going to believe that they are more aggressive in terms of development. Cryptocurrencies are now the way to give convenience to the people around and having this strategy helps to convince people that this is not just only a talk and rumors but this could be proven to be a reality, not a scam.

They're could be more to install and this going to spread across the globe, just it takes times but at least we're seeing these improvements.

Hi crew. Hope you are all well in new 2022. Good moment to buy btc or eth?
If you want to buy it wait for it a bit stable first, I'm afraid the market will go down continuously. If you got a lot of money you can buy the top ten from coinmarketcap, many people will panic sell and watch the movement from the market waiting for a good opportunity to buy the dip. It's now or never to me.
That's what most people say these days that cryptos can decline even further so not hurrying up can be a good thing. Another thing I heard is eth could perform better this year so it will be good if we pay attention to that.
In that case, we should buy ETH now. However, I can't just think that ETH will recover first than Bitcoin. As for many years has been in the market, this project still relies upon Bitcoin and that up can be seen once Bitcoin had recovered as well.

Quote
To have a lot of money or not , we can still be able to buy coins from the top as long as we know how to divide the funds properly  there is also non top coins or undervalued coins that can potentially pump so I wont disregard them. Sure there are panic sellers but I do not think they are the ones that will monitor the market closely and buys at the dip, that is not the trait of a panic seller but that is the trait of a professional crypto trader  .
It was more advantageous when you have a lot of money. Like seeing rich people can buy anything they want and if that brings it here if you have huge capital you can buy more Bitcoin. Perhaps, they'll do and for sure everyone has a chance but the question is what are they gonna do when the market continue to drop? I hope they will just hold, not panic selling.
3098  Economy / Economics / Re: Buy Crypto Or Have Fun Staying Poor! on: January 23, 2022, 10:08:53 PM
poor people do not really feel the impact of inflation from their finances. For me, the word poor is for people who do not have income or their daily needs are not met maybe the only thing they will feel is the price will become more expensive than before. but the middle class and above will feel it.holding flat only without choosing any investment will definetelly decrease value our saving in the future.


Poor people are the one who are been much affected on inflation knowing there small amount of money can only bring few goods and imagine it what happen on the next day for sure they will struggle to buy again since they don't have enough money to spend on. Also middle class guys or at rich level are not much gonna feel it if we talk about on spending but maybe if we talk about investment maybe there are certain area that they will be hurt on what they have put up.
Studies around the topic of inflation have shown that the most affected by it are the middle class, the rich have no problem dealing with it because most of their fortune is not in fiat but in hard assets, like real estate, precious metals, art or their own companies, the poor do in fact suffer because of inflation but since the amount of money they have is low they are not affected as much either, the ones that suffers the most is the middle class, as most of their net worth is in their house which they owe and with inflation the interest rates go higher and they cannot pay their house until they lose it, becoming poor in the process.
That is a little bit desperate seeing these poor people lose more opportunities while these rich people have plenty. It is somehow a real talk but I don't think that would stop them to invest and let their life live being poor forever as there are so many ways to change it, and first is our mindset. If they keep being negative, being doubtful, and doing nothing, they will never change their lives but stay poor.

For almost 4 years been using a crypto wallet (3rd party/non-custodial), it is all just fine, never encounter troubles unlike the other platforms. But, I wasn't holding and stocking huge amounts in there as we know that it was not a safe wallet, and to anticipate hacking that can be possible. The good thing about this is we can make transactions anytime, less hassle.

Only the thing we need to do is to keep our phone untouchable to others as this might lead to some leaks especially when they access sites that contain viruses.

I just look at how tough would be for the market facing another bear sign. But why we should be panicking? This is not the first we experience this, so Hold, keep calm, and buy more (if we still have the money).

Well, I can picture out the feeling those who buy last week, many of them are in trouble this time or might they are selling now.
Bitcoin had continued to drop, we don't know and find no big reason for this that is why I could say this will take so long and this correction will just stop. But I think, we even going to drop more and reach $35k before the recovery starts.
