I hope that this time that there will be less injury on their team. Many are eyeing for their team to get into the finals and that's what makes everyone interested about them.

Especially Griffin, his main reason why he signed with the Nets is to be in the Championship and to win. His playoffs experience could contribute to this team, he maybe not part of the starting line up but he will surely get good minutes if he will have a great performance in the playoffs.

These are all stars players, they are not just big 3, they now can call themselves as big 4.

Imagine these players lead their team in the early stage of their career.

1- Irving (Cavaliers)
2-Durant (OKC)
3- Harden ( Rockets)
4-Griffin (Clippers)
Uhm, yeah.
They're now the big 4 and it's really an explosive roster that has been brought to us by the Nets. Before that it was only Irving and Durant, it was already getting the news everywhere and made most of the fans jumped to their team and turns to them as playoffs to finals caliber team.

Exactly, but this could be just big 3 and Griffin needs to prove first that he can be trusted to help the team a win. Only the big 3 gets a big contract while Griffin only gets a veteran contract due to his declining performance in this previous team.

Bitcoin start the year with $28,800 and now it as doubled in value $58,300 late last month, since the correction, it rebounded, now threatening to break another all time high
Just prepare for the big day as is not yet come. Maybe some experts are not wrong talking about $100k and we are going that way.
Just this time I post, the current price is now at $61, 600, it keeps moving and getting strong. This shakes again the holders and makes them happy.

We can truly say that everything is possible in Bitcoin. The demand surging high, price rallying as well, but the risk is also getting high. And for now, I can't make myself very comfortable with it or make the decision to sell now. 
3083  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is for Holders! on: March 13, 2021, 02:36:51 PM
Bitcoin is for everyone. Anyone can hold and sell it at their will. Anyone who owns it has the full authority whether to sell it or hold it for long term just as what we do, we hold it.

But that doesn't mean that it is only specific for holders. It is free to be held and owned by anyone regardless of the plan he has while owning it.
No, not for everyone because if that is the reality, all of us now are holding Bitcoin but the majority are still ignoring Bitcoin and calling it a scam. And you can't tell that those poor people will have to risk their money here because it surely they don't.

And not all who knows Bitcoin also are holders, they often dump sell their Bitcoin once the price goes down.

For me, Bitcoin is only for the risk-takers either be a holder or not. We have the freedom to hold or to sell it, it is our own investment, we can do anything if we want to.

Congrats guys on your win.

I'm posting the game available later.

https://www.covers.com/sports/nba/matchups?selectedDate=2021-03-13
1-New York at Oklahoma City
2-Detroit at Brooklyn
3- Toronto at Charlotte
4- Milwaukee at Washington
5- Sacramento at Atlanta
6- Portland at Minnesota
7- Dallas at Denver
8- Indiana at Phoenix

Which of the games do you find interesting to bet?

Me, I guess I'll have to try my luck with the Washington Wizards against Giannis, Washing loss 2 straight already so I'm thinking maybe they will work hard to win in this game. The most attractive is the line which is +10.5 for the Wizards but I will not bet on that, instead I'll take the moneyline which is 5.86.

It's not over yet, we are going to see a new ATH soon, bitcoin heading to $60k and that would be a great starting point for a greater pump. Good luck to us and hopefully we can enjoy this bull run and we should not be greedy as opportunity to sell is here again.

I had timing it right, we are at $60k now.

And if they get another championship, they would really not hesitate to give him another one once it ends.

They might get another championship again, they are already seasoned as a team and getting C. Stand is a huge help for that campaign. Thompson really excel in rebounding for a small guy and that also provide some energy for the team which makes them a better team.

This season to come (next month), I think Ginebra has a better chance of winning that championship again.

He also improved his long-range shots, a good quality of a player to keep improving from time to time. He deserve the Max contract as for sure aside from that legal one there's are other added benefits for him.The very reason most players wanted to play with SMC franchise as they truly value the player by providing very competitive contract. They know how to keep players who deserve to play with them.

Having C.Stand and with the blended selections of coach Tim, the chance for winning another title is very possible, they've got all covered from small to big men inside the court with also a good role players to back them up.

He made some winning shot during the bubble and that was during the playoffs IIRC.. He is really improving and I'm happy that he is healthy and playing consistent games with the Ginebra, maybe he learn some technique from LA Tenorio on how to stay healthy as you can always see Tenorio available on the floor.

3088  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Taking a loan to buy Bitcoin? on: March 12, 2021, 09:56:19 PM
I have been thinking about it too, it sounds pretty interesting to take a loan to buy BTC I guess.. But I might be too late already
You're not late to buy bitcoin. You can buy bitcoin at any price that you desire and if you have plans of looking forward on it in the future.

But the idea of taking loan for bitcoin. You shouldn't give it a try, it might give you bigger problems if you're going to do it. That's why it's better to invest in bitcoin with your own money.

Yeah, coming from your own pocket.
Making out loans will really be meaning out that you would really be repaying something which means if you do really rely on it then you would really be having a problem.

Taking a loan isnt always ideal even on just those normal days of living where taking loan for something it would really be that recommendable.If you could able to  pay it up then
its fine but if you are relying on profits then that would risky.
This is why having a savings intended for future purposes can be also used for investment too if youd like.

It's a risky move but if you know how to calculate the risk you might be successful.

When you can borrow with a low interest, I guess it's worth risking as long as you have the capacity to pay the loan.
A 1% or even 2% per month loan is okay because of the market volatility, price can rise higher than 100% just one month and that would already double your money which means you will be able to pay your loan and take the profit as your capital for trading.

I'm not saying it works all the time, but it could work or fail, and this is only for big risk takers.

3090  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: BNB reached $200 on: March 12, 2021, 03:17:04 PM
As for today BNB already reached $310, what an amazing development from Binance, it's likely possible that BNB can reach $500 in this year,
i do really hope that BNB can keep growing and increasing, i think this year is the year of BNB.
Just wait there will be more announcement from the CEO of Binance.


The maximum rise of BNB is around 313$.Which is a cross of 300$,it was expected one.You should have a look of 24 hours trade of BNB,it was awesome.May be it near the value ETH transfer in 24 hours trade.I think,for this reason BNB had scored the third place in the crypptocurrency market.

Always recommended users here to invest in BNB and one of the good projects which I liked it and in recent past the price surge has proved that it is just a beginning of this and it can make us multiple times from the present value as well. It will grow and could be the next big coin in the market and staying invested just like ETH should be the done with this too.

People had made this rally, they invest in BNB for the reason that they believe that it will bring them profit back and they are not wrong. BNB makes an extra mile already, it is proven already enough to make this huge change, and those who bought this coin in the last 2 years or even last year are too grateful for their experience and gain.

$200 is not impossible as I was thinking for $500 within this year. I hope my prediction is close to it.
3091  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: WHAT happened to goosebet.io on: March 11, 2021, 10:19:32 PM
Im not really a fan on supporting those gambling tokens out there because it hasnt really giving out any benefits at all other than on using it on the site itself.
I do much prefer on using bitcoin or other top altcoins in the market.So far there are no further words came from goosebet and hope that there would
be no people who would keep depositing into this shady site.
This is true for most altcoins anyway, whenever I see that some people are taking about a new coin the first thing that comes to my mind is why we need yet another new coin in the market? Why do they need to create their own when bitcoin is there to be used and it has more than one hundred millions users? And at the end I cannot find any technical reason for most coins to exist, the real reason for those coins to exist is to enrich the owners of those coins and to create a speculative vehicle and nothing more.
Some are created that way but there are some that are legit and want to grow the project not only to benefit them but mostly the investors. However, for business that has raise funds through crowdsale, the risk is always on the investors as most of the time the team does not invest money at all or if they do it's just a small amount but they are already guaranteed a number of shares of the project, so they have no risk.
The wise investor will not just invest in that crowdsale, even if they see a calculation of making a big profit for some time. The token does not exist on the market, but if the team serious with the project on their site, they will try to contact the exchange to add their token to their list. They made their own token to be used for their members to gamble instead of using bitcoin or the other altcoins, and I think their members can buy that token in the exchange or inside the gambling site. And with the low price of the token, their members do not have to spend too big satoshi or altcoins to buy the token, so they can start playing gambling.

I think there are only few gambling platforms who are successful in using their own token, I know some platform that has their ICO and issued tokens for gambling but it seems the more popular now is still the gambling site that just accept major coins (altcoins and bitcoin).

Some of the sites I know are the follow.

1. Funfair
2. Edgeless
3. bitdice..

There tokens are not popular in the market.
3092  Economy / Economics / Re: Why should i invest in bitcoin or other cryptos ? on: March 10, 2021, 01:47:30 PM
We neither to expect from someone who doesn't have the interest of Bitcoin will say good but we obviously hearing bad. Besides, people are not forced to invest in Bitcoin and maybe we have to understand that this is only for the risk-takers who are willing to lose and much more to improve their living.

Asking why these people never invest in lands, stock market, bonds and etc...but they are preferred for crypto is because they know their big chances in here and they are hoping to succeed.
3093  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Atari Set to Launch Cryptocurrency Casino Featuring Atari-themed Games and NFTs on: March 09, 2021, 10:42:12 PM
Atari, the legendary entertainment company behind Pacman,


At first glance I thought it's referring to Manny Pacquiao but I realize it's the game itself which is the Pacman that I have played when I was a kind when family computer ( if that's what its called) was still very popular, yeah, the word "ATARI" I still remember.

Well, I think this is a good news that they are entering in the crypto space, should help them improve as this market is getting bigger and players will benefit on that success.
3094  Other / Archival / Re: DeFi hyip is over? on: March 09, 2021, 10:25:17 PM
Right now I'm truly cheerful about the way that the whole hype about it is finished and as it settles compeltely we will see all activities that surfaced to capitalize on the promotion will vanish so just certifiable undertakings with strong solid projects that will thrive and that is the thing that we need to see this market improving and pushing ahead. We need quality than amount and solid rivalry among too projects.

In overall, doesn't look like that way, we can see in the total list at https://coinmarketcap.com/defi/



Maybe the hype for new project is already over but there are projects (old) that are still bullish at the moment.
3095  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Could DOGE could reach 1$...? on: March 08, 2021, 01:26:53 PM
I think Dogecoin is an altcoin that has great potential and is one of the best altcoins that remain among the top 20 altcoins, but I don't think if the DOGE coin will hit $ 1 this year,
I would not like to call doge as a coin with great potential. Dogecoin offers nothing. The micropayment system can't be labelled to the doge coin again consider the price increase has been making the surge on the doge fees to.
You need a few cents to send your doge coins right now and it's too expensive compared with another new scalable coin like DOT.
$1 is a an impossible thing to be achieved by doge soon.
Very unfortunate how Doge won't able to have a huge spike despite that EM did the tweet. This it means that no matter an influential person helping a certain coin but if they know isn't worthy enough to make an investment, they still ignore it, just like what they do towards Doge.

$1 is already overvalued, no, Doge won't worth that. That was very acceptable than we think it reaches $1 because someone did the hype, that absolutely a trap.
3096  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: "People who have invested on ETH soon will be poor", said CZ #BSC on: March 07, 2021, 01:51:56 PM
He just lost respect from people, he should respect ETH as BNB started from ETH network, not he think that BNB can overtake ETH and like to destroy it with his words, I think that's not what people are expecting to come out from his mouth.

He should change his strategy, it's better the old way, less talk more work or development.
Nah, there's a little misunderstanding here because he never meant to shame people who are buying ETH it's the gas fees for ETH.
So basically, he was saying rich people will be poor because the high gas fees just for transferring any amount small amount of ETH to other wallet.
Maybe ETH 2.0 will give the solution for this but it seems that ETH has a lot of users so it might take some time for a while.
Maybe it was but it sounds like that BNB is trying to ruin ETH and taking the position. I hope I was wrong but I believe that Mr. Vitalik will do something to fasten the development in regards to the ETH2.0 launching period in order to give a reason for all ETH holders to keep calm. If BNB will have the solution and help users to lessen their fees, that will be beneficial for both.

I think the competition is so harsh to see now.

It's nice that you found what you really like though it can be risky since trading is not always have a positive outcome especially the market is volatile.
It is nice but to everyone who reads this and is also naïve to think that they can do it too, heed my warning, everyone has different circumstances and you can't have the same results as OP.
Yeah, that's right. Not all meant to become a trader, not all have been successful in this field, and many had also suffered losses as they are underestimating trading is very easy. Quite they know how hard is that especially when the bearish season comes.

If OP has to decide to leave his job for this, that gonna be a tough decision but this actually how we find better opportunities, and we need to sacrifice. Well, I hope he is not wrong, and never blames himself in the end coz many did this.

The percentage that you've given for someone skilled is good. I agree that luck is needed but for skilled based games, it all depends to the players of that game you bet on.
You can't dictate the players on what to do as you are only betting on them, it always depends on your pick, you analyze by looking at the team and its players, and you choose a team that you believe will win because you trust their players, that's it.

As a gambler, you can't blame a player or a team but yourself as you are the one choosing, they will play their usual and if your prediction or expectation is correct then you win.

That's why analyzing it is a skill that you can do and improve to make yourself better from it.
It's necessary to analyze the game but a skill is something that could give you more wins than loses.

If Bitcoin price had not crashed in 2018, I would become a millionaire right now.  Grin  I was holding a good amount of BTC and it was worth really great.  Grin  But the price crashed and I lost a great deal of my profits. After that, I decided to HODL for a long time and I made a really good profit. But this time, I decided to withdraw early as I was thinking that the price could crash again but it went the opposite way. I've been really unlucky and I hope that I could break my bad luck.  Grin
If not even the price had dropped last 2018, I'm also doubtful if you were able to hold it until now. In fact, you do the sell earlier, and that means that you are one of those emotional holders.

One reason why we have sometimes to regret what we do in the past is that was a normal happening. We can't be perfect and having Bitcoin isn't a lifetime holding and that is sometimes we have to sell it.
If I didn't sell my Bitcoin and keep holding, I become a millionaire, maybe it's true but we forget to think what if the market still not moving this high?
Holding is not a guarantee that we become millionaires, it is just in time we have this new ATH and that is why we think about it.
