It would be a great news especially for countries who lack good exchanges as for sure with paypal, one can buy and sell their crypto at a standard price in the market. It's a big platform that has millions of users, it might not  lead to mass adoption as it's not expected everyone would transact bitcoin using the paypal platform but it would be a great help to meet that goal in the future.

With this big news, I believe soon enough there will be bigger news that will follow.

I have seen THe compound coin have rising huge https://www.coinmarketcap.com/currencies/compound/
Why this coin has huge rise even though it doesn't have maximum coins.

No, you are wrong, It has a maximum supply, you can check on https://www.coinmarketcap.com/currencies/compound/markets

snip...


The coin is still rising up to now, current price is $310, it has a nice volume especially in MXC exchange, but not sure if this exchange is reputable or not. Per CMC, the exchange  is listed with 100% confidence.. anyone here who are using this exchange? What can you say about the exchange based on your experience?
It was in CMC and that it pertains to something that this coin has market potential and investors are taking it already. The surge makes us surprise coz we are not expecting a new coin to show an impressive uprising trend and we thought that this is just hype.

It does not automatically mean that way, if you carefully looked at all the coins listed in CMC, majority of them have already failed, they are just waiting for an exchange to delist them and they are gone as they would lose their volume which is the only reason why they are still listed in CMC.

Coin choice will matter even in long run if you consider the price of it in fiat. Imagine you are winning the investment at Yolodice but you are losing the price of your coin in fiat, so in the end, it will ended-up breakeven or a loss.

Good explanation, therefore if I have to invest, I would choose bitcoin as it's the most stable coin in the market now.
I've seen altcoins which falls even 50% or more of its value in just a short period because of FUD, so that factor can also be considered when investing.

Not saying bitcoin could not fall at that rate too, it's possible, but the difference is that bitcoin is the most dominant coin in the market, if it falls it will certainly recovers as there's a lot of interest at stake from investors in this coin.
3084  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: A trading chart does not play out to 100% on: June 22, 2020, 12:07:07 PM
70% is too high IMO, maybe 40% because this market has always been hard to predict.

I believe 60% comes from the news and the rumors, that's the bigger factor that could move the market, so this FUD and FOMO happens.
It happened in the past and it's still happening now, notice when the market move 20% to 30% in just 24 hours or less, that cannot be predicted using the chart, but if you know the rumor and the news, you might see it coming.
3085  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: June 22, 2020, 11:17:19 AM
I've stumbled upon this article on their website about the young players that will have impact whenever the season resumes. What do you say about this and I know most of us likes Luka but spare him and look for the other good young athletes.
(https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/zion-williamson-luka-doncic-lead-the-nba-players-under-25-who-will-make-a-huge-impact-when-the/)


It's Luka and Zion, both are great young players.

In the article, it mentioned about young MVP's under 25 years old, the latest was Kawhi Leonard with the spurs, a well deserved recognition that time but I don't think both Luka and Zion had a great chance of achieving that now since their respective team does not have a good ranking to win the NBA Championship this season.

That's my instinct and my opinion, though both players are exciting to watch, but their team is not a championship caliber team yet.

I hope I'm wrong as I want to see Luka to achieved another milestone of success.

Don't know about that but it's good you bring such information here, personally I'm not from Russia so I really have no idea.
Anyway, I'm talking about the overall market of chess game, they are not popular in sportsbook because it's not a kind of game that would attract a crowd.

It's the national sport of Russia they have a long line of world champion, they may not attract a lot of sites for betting, but their online chess platform has a good ranking hundreds of thousands of players meet here to play online

https://lichess.org/

https://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/lichess.org#trafficstats This site ranks: #1,164 in global internet engagement

Wow! Again sorry for underestimating this game, was just expressing my opinion that this game is not as popular compared to the games I'm betting,  didn't know it's very popular in Russia. Anyway, hopefully for the chess bettors they can bet in different gambling sites, also, I don't know if our popular sports book here are offering such kind of game and if they do, hopefully they will put a huge limit so they can accommodate gamblers especially from Russia.
3087  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Binance deserves the first Position on CMC on: June 22, 2020, 09:45:56 AM
Many people are saying that binance ranked was manipulated because they now acquired coinmarketcap, they are now rated 1st on coinmarketcap but the truth is binance exchange deserves to be ranked first, what's your take on this??


That's normal and Binance are aware about that before they acquire the exchange, however, they still continue to acquire because they believe that majority of traders and investors believe on them, so they still own their good reputation.

Actually, Binance was already one of the best exchange in the market before they acquire CMC, so it doesn't matter, it's not a big thing as even if we ask people about that, I'm sure many will say that Binance deserved the number 1. The fact that they grow the project to this big now, investors are happy with that already and in every successful company, there's always haters.

It's a boring game for those who are not good at it, I know a little about this game but I don't bother to improve and gain some skills as I'm not into this kind of games. I grow up watching my relatives playing basketball so it has been my hobby and overtime when I learn about sports betting I was tempted to starting betting in sports particular in basketball.

If we rank chess in the list of popular sports in the world, I don't where it rank.

in the top 25 popular sports I've found in the internet, chess is not included.

https://list25.com/25-most-popular-sports-in-the-world/

Yes, it is quite boring but in Russia it is very popular, it's their national sport, it's a good sport for the elders so they will not have issues about being forgetfulness and their mental health improve, with the help of the internet people from all walks of life and anywhere on the planet can battle each other, there are a lot of chess club online and offline

Don't know about that but it's good you bring such information here, personally I'm not from Russia so I really have no idea.

3090  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is KCS or kucoin share is better investment on: June 21, 2020, 07:19:44 AM
This coin has a potential, it was one of the exchange token that was successful during the last bull run, KCS dump a lot and that makes this coin at a good value now for those who wants to accumulate.

Look at the big picture : https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/kucoin-shares/

ATH was $20 usd and now only trading at less than 1usd only.

And per exchanges ranking, they still belong at the top 20 with over $41 million 24 hours trading volume.
https://coinmarketcap.com/rankings/exchanges/

I think KCS can break its ATH in time but at this price, I think it's really cheap for a legit exchange with good reputation.
3091  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What is your main goal... ? on: June 21, 2020, 05:24:34 AM
campaign which is very popular in the past.
What made me successful as while I'm earning in bounty, I treated my earning as an investment, I didn't cash them out, I learn to hold them and sold them when they price rises, and also, from that time I learn how to trade by trading my bitcoin to altcoins and even hold some of them.

When the bull run comes, I notice I held a lot that is enough for me to be satisfied when I sell it and I did and with that I achieved some properly that I never expect at my young age I'll be able to get it.

I know crypto is not forever, so I diversified my earnings by investing in  business outside crypto and until now it's still existing and I'm enjoying the profit.

BOTTOM LINE, I started with bounty campaign and I used it as my stepping stone to achieve my dreams.
3092  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Should we invest in a bitcoin exchange? on: June 20, 2020, 11:05:16 AM
Security always matters in starting an exchange, it has to be your first priority because when you start and you get your exchange hack or information are leak, your exchange is over and you will lose the money you invested.

It's a big market but with a tight competition as big exchanges are already getting big part of the market, so it's a tough challenge for a start-up but it's not impossible to succeed when you are effective in running your own exchange. IMO, exchange business  as long as you have clients/customers is more profitable than running a gambling site, so make your own decision and be realistic all the time to gauge things properly, risk and reward must be carefully evaluated.

3094  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Better trade BTC or BNB? On BINANCE on: June 20, 2020, 08:53:09 AM
You don't need to choose since both coins have good volume in Binance.

Since you are trading, your main job is just is just to trade in short-term and insuring you'll be profitable most of the time.

Actually it just depends on the traders preferences, you can make your own and you'll know that if you will experience doing it.

However, if you are talking of long-term trading or investing, I suggest you go with bitcoin as it's the most dominant coin in the market now, I'm not saying BNB is bad but if you just need to choose I'll always recommend bitcoin but overall they are both good investments for long-term as well.

His current contract with the Lakers now is only $3,500,000   .

https://www.spotrac.com/nba/los-angeles-lakers/demarcus-cousins-6886/cash-earnings/

Agree with you, his current value has already dropped as we can see in the article your shared, he is like a stocks that is dropping its value and might not recover again, but if Wizards will take chances, they'll get him with a good value as somehow he can can still contribute.

it's just unfortunate for him that he is now prone to injury, I was expecting that he will be one of the biggest stars in the NBA as he is good big man with some skills in outside shooting.

I've taken a screenshot on the article you shared so it would be visible for everyone.

3096  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [ POLL ]: Boxing - Anthony Joshua vs Kubrat Pulev on: June 19, 2020, 12:47:06 PM
We didn't get to see the fight between the two because of the covid-19 pandemic. Anthony Joshua has make his first move to challenge Tyson Fury. I see Anthony Joshua, Fury fight before this year end.
Anthony Joshua vs Kubrat Pulev has to be realized first before moving to AJ vs Fury, both fights have their own assignment that they have to solve so their fight which people think it's  a big fight will be realized too, and I don't think it will happen this year, it could be next year so they can prepare more for this big fight.

Kubrat Pulev is no match for AJ. It's a big win for AJ with a knockout, my prediction though.

That's what the odds are saying, but I might bet against your prediction as I love taking big odds.
3097  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: June 16, 2020, 11:56:11 PM
He is not the team leader on Spurs, Raptors, and Clippers but just doing his role. Kawhi is still young and he can beat the hell out of records out there, not just against Lebron but to other superstars as well.

I beg to disagree on this, Leonard might not be a Team leader on Spurs as he played most of his rookie years with the Spurs but he got his first championship with the spurs and his first Finals MVP, that says a lot to me, the only reason we don't see his leadership because he is a humble player in the court, he doesn't talk a lot, he is more action than words.  

However, with the Raptors and the Clippers, I think I saw his leadership, if you saw how he played last playoffs and NBA finals, you'll see that he is the main man in the team and he is good in getting his teammates involve so they have success together.

You might have the wrong impression of being the main man, it's not always the leader. In Raptor's case, that's not the case. The one who is making plays for them is Kyle Lowry and he is the leader, not Kawhi. Since Kawhi is the main scorer, therefore Lowry will put the center of offense to him. Kawhi is not a leader but he is just doing his job to the role assigned to him. Raptors trusted him.
I know that Lowry is the captain ball of the team, but they usually give the ball to Leonard in crucial times and it seems like it's Leonard is already manning the ball most of the time. Just like Kobe Bryant role, he is not the PG of the team but once he has the ball, he can decide to shoot it or to pass it. We may have different point of view, I respect your opinion but that is my opinion too.



However, with the Raptors and the Clippers, I think I saw his leadership, if you saw how he played last playoffs and NBA finals, you'll see that he is the main man in the team and he is good in getting his teammates involve so they have success together.
In other words. Bringing the 1st fight NBA championship of the Raptors says it all.
Yes because he is not vocal but he always prove to be one of the best in the NBA, and yet he is still underrated now.
Maybe when Lebron retires, that will be his time to shine more, but I really like his consistency and his humbleness and he keeps proving he can beat any opponent who will guard and which he will guard.

I can say as of now that they are even as in the NBA finals, When Lebron was still playing with the Heat, both met 2 times and they are 1-1 in win record.
Pretty much. However, Lebron faced a young Kawhi at that time and that's the interesting part why lots of fans love to see this rivalry.

Kawhi was still young that time but he beat Lebron in their duel.

Let's reminisce the performance of Leonard last 2014 finals when spurs won.

Now that he is playing with the Clippers, they maybe not the number 1 team but they will be a great contender comes the playoffs.
I have a feeling that since LA Clippers is just sitting next to the Lakers, if both will beat their opponents, they will meet in the West Finals and then we can prove who is the better player between the two.

I can say as of now that they are even as in the NBA finals, When Lebron was still playing with the Heat, both met 2 times and they are 1-1 in win record.
3099  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Manny Pacquiao Might Fight Golovkin on: June 16, 2020, 10:58:12 PM
I don't think GGG would say no to Manny, but they are in different weight now, so they have to agree on what weight they will fight, it's gonna be at catchweight at best. Crawford is a good fighter always, he is undefeated and he could give a good fight to Manny.
I have a feeling that GGG as well might be possible to have his last fight anytime soon and announce he's retirement. If that's the case and Manny as well is in the verge of supposed last fight--I think this fight me be happen anytime soon they talked about. Pacquiao and Coach Roach are great tandem and coach knows the best for his boxer.
GGG is a great fighter but Manny is a legend, so this fight could be a great fight as it's not a one sided fight only.
Both fighters are well respected and there are the opinion of people are divided on who will win between the two fighters, and that would make this fight very interesting, of course, there will be a possible equal flow of money from bets, so it's not hard to get a good odds whichever fighter we will bet  on.

Lastly, GGG and Manny are soon going to retire, a good paycheck in their last few fights would be a good bonus.


Any of these boxers would fight, it would be a showdown.

Manny Pacquiao - WBA Super World Welter Title
Errol Spence Jr - WBC World Welter Title
Terence Crawford- WBO World Welter Title
As I've said, it is the best second option Manny got if he wants to give this young hungry fighter an opportunity to have big fights.

I think I would agree with @harizen in his post above, GGG is better, then maybe my next option would be Errol Spence Jr.

Good advise though, I've been married with different kind of altcoins almost 4 years already, lol..
I would say I'm a bag holder of some shitcoins now but despite of that, I can still proudly say that I made a decent profit of selling some during the last bull run.

It's a gamble when holding, but as long as we know how to diversify, I guess we will still end up with a good profit.
Now, though the chance is very low to sell my altcoins, but I'm waiting for the 2nd bull run, who knows, these altcoins that I held will come alive.
