3081  Economy / Economics / Re: Which is better, staking or investing? on: June 22, 2020, 11:59:50 PM
With staking, you lock your asset for a certain period and you cannot immediate withdrawal. Some take 7 days after you initiate the request, while some take two weeks. With the investment, you are in control, when you see a nice price movement, you can sell immediately and look another way to invest.
Staking is somewhat has a broad meaning which is closely similar to investing because capital is still needed for it. Better to understand more about staking so you can decide which is the best way to do. Investing is what most of the people do here because they can totally control it especially when they are at losing times.

Matching the first deposit with a bonus amount would be a nice welcome offer, if let's say I will deposited $200 usd and they'll match that with bonus then for sure gamblers will try their luck to win although I know there are some conditions before you can cash out that money in case you win, one popular condition was the rollover requirement but most sites has a very hard requirement on that so it's hard to win.

Oladipo could be helping the team but could also very well might hurt the team as well. Remember when Utah didn't had Mike Conley and they played better? Sometimes just because you are a great player or maybe even the best player on the team that doesn't really mean the team will do better. The reason for this is when you are playing as a whole team you get to be a lot more tough to defend, everyone attacks the basket and you have 5 people to guard and if you miss one of them they will score however when you have one super star you have to focus on them

One of the main reasons why Lebron wanted to play with other stars all his career, because if you are playing against just Lebron lead team with no other star, all you have to do is stop him, or slow him down. Hence why having Oladipo could be an amazing improvement or maybe wouldn't be that big of a deal.

Are you forgetting that Oladipo was coming out of a injury when he played this season? Of course he will fail to do impressive numbers right now since his play time is limited and his cohesion with the team  won't be that good. If you are judging him now and how he doesn't contribute well to the team it's because of that, I even doubt that the Pacers will become competitive again without him so he was really that unwanted star that can shine for them. You'll see what I mean if he won't be playing with the Pacers and the team won't have any replacement for him, they'll basically be trash even if Turner is around.

He's body is recovering for sure he will struggle plus you can add the emotional stress for that since for sure he will be careful so that he will not be injured again, I think he will struggle to get his numbers back since he encounter a gruesome injury. But I think pacer still a big team since they still have plenty of potential young legs and they should look for temporary replacement to cope up their need inside the court.

The decision depends on the coach, they can still give him a playing time but he might only play a limited minutes.
His contribution in the past was appreciated for sure, but if he can't contribute the same this playoffs, well, of course the coach will have to adjust.
Actually, I haven't seen Oladipo already back in his old self, it might still take time before he can fully regain his full confidence.

The problem is not only luck. But often the problem is in your character. Not everyone is able to wait or make decisions quickly. In addition, trading is quite a nervous activity.
Trading is not all about luck but we will have to true our skills too. In trading, I have seen so many people who lose hope just because they feel unlucky in trading and they stop trading so better believe your skills and keep trading so I am not asking you to chase your losses or lose hope but keep trading with your own new strategies and increased your knowledge as much as you can.
Do not be easily discouraged if you keep on committing losses as everyone here has experienced that too. Trading is a long process of learning and there is no shortcut about it. Mistakes are part of trading so it should still be faced positively because it will be the best motivation we have for us to improve our skills and strategies in trading. If you are not happy with the results of short term trading, try also the long term one. It is less risky and you still have more chances to earn profits from holding bitcoin for a long period and sell it when the price is already in peak.
3085  Economy / Economics / Re: Current Food Shortage and Economic Decline Caused by Pandemic on: June 19, 2020, 10:11:24 PM
So that we can help our government, we must take care of ourselves and other people around us. Measures must be taken to protect against the virus in order to stop its spread. I think this virus can only be defeated together. Together we can create conditions for a stable situation and after that it will be possible to implement measures to overcome the crisis. We must support local producers and look for new markets for products. You may have to give up some habitual things.
To be honest, it is really hard to overcome the current situation of the pandemic of the corona virus because even our governments don't know how to take care of it, and they don't know how to deal with people who are starving. Collaborating with our government is one of the good way for us not to suffer for long, even there are a lot of things that we don't want in our government on how they lead because collaborating with them could help to lessen the virus cases and for us not to starve to death.
There is no other way to help our own country but to follow the protocols of our government because in the end, it will be for our own welfare. Bitcoin is not the solution of this problem. We should be more united in this time of pandemic and help one another particularly those poorest of the poor who are mostly affected. And hopefully we can come up with a vaccine in the next days so that this corona virus will now be stopped.
3086  Economy / Economics / Re: What is the cause of economy rise and fall. on: June 19, 2020, 09:52:54 PM
I think it all depends on the government of the country, on the general ideology. Let's look at Norway. Stable stable growth. Or Nepal - stably bad. Well, Norway has oil. But Russia also has oil. In which country is the economic situation better?

Apart from what countries have, it also depends on those who controls those resources or means of production. That is the leadership of the country or the decision takers. If the people's hands are corrupt, they may still not do fine despite the huge resources the country has.
I must agree. The people and the government should work hand in hand so that the economy of such country will prosper. Big factor of which is also the leadership of the officials in the government. If they are capable with their different posistions, they will be able to produce more projects for the economy which will be totally benefited also by the citizens living in it. More projects means more benefits for the people.
3087  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Manny Pacquiao Might Fight Golovkin on: June 19, 2020, 10:21:29 AM

Yeah, I agree.

1. Pacquiao vs Spence
2. Pacquaio vs Crawford

Manny is not calling GGG as far as I know, and the only boxer that I recall Manny calling is Floyd. And it's the other way around, boxers are calling Manny because of the sweepstakes, just like what Thurman got, biggest payday of his career.

And calling GGG is the brainchild of Roach, similar to when they call Oscar back then. Manny just say yes as a boxer.

The chance of fighting Manny is a good stepping stone to every boxers who still seeking for more stardom, Manny's charmed from this
boxing world already established whoever he fight it will bring good reflection to the fighter.
Win or lose the fighter will have a good share both money and fame.

Manny will fight as he's still active and he wanted to continue his legacy,.

That's the thing we have to wait and see, if this fight happen, it should be the best fight of Manny after the Manny vs Mayweather fight, probably the biggest fight of GGG too, that would give him a good payday, the hype is rising, so people really wanting this to realize too.

I think we are overrating this possible fight.

Manny has a lot of best fights and I don't think Manny vs. Mayweather is the top of it. I think if we will be talking about the most earned fight of his, I guess I will be taking it. There is a lot of fights that we can tell that can be the best, and in my opinion, I would go with Manny's fight and Miguels Cotto. There are articles that say that Dela Hoya Vs. Pacquiao is great but I think his fight with Cotto is also amazing.

I'm sure that is not the best fight of Manny because he lose in that fight and he made an excuse saying he got an injury during the training.
It was called as the fight of the century but definitely that is not the best fight of Manny.

Best fights of Manny per my own opinion.

Manny vs Diaz
Manny vs Cotto
Manny vs De lahoya
Manny vs Hatton

Manny vs Morales (all fights)
Manny vs Marquez (all fights)

These fight where he got the most of  his high caliber highlights so I will agree with you that the bout between mayweather is not the best one for him since I don't know if I'm impressed  for seeing that match although the fight their fight is quite interesting still it doesn't give any convincing angle that that fight is the best, mayweather is just running around the canvass and I'm not enjoying seeing that one.

Maybe we can say that they did really well in marketing the fight, it was so hype so it attract a lot of viewers both in PVV and those who went into the arena. It's the biggest fight of Manny as he made over $100 million in that fight, it was boring, yes I agree with that as Manny can't hit Mayweather with a clean shot but if Manny were able to knock out Mayweather them probably we can call this the best and the biggest fight of Manny, well deserved to be a sold out fight.

3089  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Las Vegas Casinos are open - end of the Pandemic era. on: June 19, 2020, 09:28:24 AM
Looks like Las Vegas are heading for a second wave.

If the incubation time is around 14 days and they just re-opened last week, then we should start seeing a new wave emerging in the next few days.

I don't really get how you could possibly implement safety measures in a place like this. People seem to forget that you don't actually need to be near someone who has the virus to contract it. You just need to be in close proximity to the objects and places they were in contact with—e.g. the table or slot machine they were playing at.

If people want to go there and risk death, then good riddance, people are dumb af.
the second wave is the most worried...
On my social media homepage, a lot of news emerged that raised the issue of Beijing City again to lockdown due to the second wave of corona outbreaks. our concern is the most important thing right now, casinos can become one of the dens of the spread of corona disease if casino owners do not pay attention to health protocols set by the government.

Remove the if and things will be better, we can't always live in feat, there's always a risk but we just have to believe that our government and these businesses will comply with the protocol, otherwise things will be worst even if we just hide since there's no way the economy can sustain until next year with limited activities on the business sectors.

3091  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will Ethereum Big PUMP.? on: June 18, 2020, 11:55:38 PM
I believe ethereum will pump but I don't know when, only the event can trigger ethereum to pump maybe the eth 2.0, so let's see, profit for sure. Grin   
With the updated ethereum 2.0, it is very possible that this coin will make a good pump slowly  recovering its price. But i don't think it will make a huge pump this year because we are already in midyear and ethereum is still showing a slowly process of recovery. Ethereum may be very profitable but the chances of seeing it this year is still very small.
3092  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Can Signal Trading work for Cryptocurrencies on: June 18, 2020, 11:45:01 PM
It works, well sometimes. There are decent Signal groups out there that is managed by expert traders. But of course, When you trade you must not always trust other's opinion at all times. Because how can you become independent if you rely on their signals? Make the signal something you do after making a speculation on the market just to double check your decision.
For me, i don't prefer using signals even from the start because we can still make our trading successful with our own efforts. Trading with paid signals may be less risky but it won't make you a good trader in the making if you completely depend on it. Study on your own and with experiences you will gain, it will make you a better trader eventually.
3093  Economy / Economics / Re: Very strange most people like to buy with bitcoin , but using altcoins very few on: June 18, 2020, 09:42:43 PM
Not a surprise but bitcoin has the most share in cryptocurrencies so that's why your clients prefer to have it. Maybe you haven't seen the client that you'll deal with preferring to pay with altcoins.

65% is the dominance for bitcoin and that's not new if most clients like to take it with bitcoin. You'll get to be surprised if somebody asks you to deal with uncommon altcoins, those altcoins that you haven't mentioned and new to you.
Bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency that has build trust and support from its users and investors so it is not surprising that most of the clients are eager to have bitcoin rather than those few altcoins that have less importance than bitcoin. Altcoins may be useful in their own ways but bitcoin will always take the lead as most of the establishments today prefer to accept bitcoin as a payment rather than altcoins.
3094  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The Future of Crytopcurrency on: June 18, 2020, 09:08:47 PM
the adoption of crypto has a strong influence especially for the cryptoqurrency industry, the more public support the better especially for the crypto market situation. the future of the coin depends on demand or supply on the coin itself. on the other hand as we know that the blockchain industry is a sophisticated technology, I observe that many companies have begun to adopt cryptoqurrency. I believe crypto will be needed in the future.
The advantages of crypto has already been taking place right now since pandemic has started and a lot of people are advised to stay indoors. People are starting to adopt and invest in cryptocurrency and with good support from the government in the years to come, crypto will create a bright future ahead. The old fiat system will not be gone within the years to come but crypto will be more useful that time.
3095  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: FOMO In Crypto; How to identify It on: June 18, 2020, 08:41:01 PM
FOMO often happens for those who do not do their own research or analysis on coins to be traded. But for those who always do analysis first, we can prevent FOMO by not being careless or in a hurry. In trading, you need to be relaxed and calm, don't panic.
FOMO are mostly happening in newbies because they can be easily lured by those coins that have made significant surge even in a short period of time and without doing proper analysis. Emotions are our best enemy in trading and if we do controlled by it, we cannot do anything good in trading but mostly fall into losses.
3096  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What future is expected for new altcoins? on: June 17, 2020, 11:52:41 PM
l think that some of them have really good potential to be one of the bests, but it is not the same for all. That is why most of them are really useless, and absolutely wasting of time. Most investors are not interested in such projects, and cause of that most of them don't have a good future in my view.
Very few will still succeed simply because they are real and offers a good product/services but since the investor already have a trust issue with a new altcoins, it will be hard for them to invest on a new project same as me. Yes, most of the new altcoins are useless and they are here to collect money from people and become a scam later on, look for everything before you invest to avoid any problem in the future.
New altcoins might only end up dying if they cannot gain trust and support from the investors. 2017 has been very profitable for altcoins but within its next years, everything has changed. We can only trust investing in bitcoin today because even if its highly volatile, it will always have time to recover and reach another all time high price again.
3097  Economy / Economics / Re: What brings economy of a country down. on: June 17, 2020, 11:25:53 PM
If there are no recession or virus situations like now, I think yes, the government can diversify the economy to many sectors, so that can prevent the economy from fall down. But if we are in these situations, while people can not go out and stay at home, it will be difficult to diversify the economy to many sectors. But luckily, right now, we have an internet connection which can help people to keep survive in this pandemic. I see that company has moved their concept into an online store where they now accept the online order which they never touch it before.
It's good that government should learn to diversify their economy through their different sources of revenue like tourism, export goods and even oil production in some countries so that economy won't continue to fall particularly in this pandemic days. But we can't expect nowadays that everything will be back to normal as this pandemic case still continue to grow knowing there's no vaccine yet to stop the virus.
3098  Economy / Economics / Re: Covid-19 effect on your country's economy!!! on: June 17, 2020, 10:58:18 PM
So far it isn't that bad, or at least we still don't feel the crisis in full ranfege, but it will get worse
My country will feel all the bad consequences in the fall because our economy depends great deal on tourism and the season is going to be very bad.
At the moment government is trying to compesate losses to most affected businesses but they don't have unlimited funds either and many are expecting help.
As individuals we can't do much except try to take care on ourselves, try not to lose job and save as much as we can. Including in cryptocurrencies.
Right now, most of the countries are already facing general community quarantine and this new normal allows people now to go back to their jobs and earn an income because the government itself cannot sustain anymore the basic needs of their people. But even if this new normal is already out, people should still take precautionary measures not to be infected by the virus.

Well i know cryptocurrency a little bit grow up because everyone is not doing anything in home, and trading maybe be their choose for Work From Home.
All of people are feeling unhappy caused by covid has changed our life  and this is the fact but when you were crypto traders and the existence of covid was bringing so many new demands to the market to provide more liquidity.

You're right, all of us are unhappy with what the covid brought, but it also brought a shock to the crypto market which held up very well. The crypto market is the future and now we have the demonstration
If this pandemic will still continue in the coming months or years, this will eventually open the world of crypto to millions of people who have lost their jobs or those people who are looking for investments that will create huge returns after a year or two. And since digital currency is our future, then it will be a great interest for people to start studying about crypto and learned from it.

Your motivation is strong, my friend and I admired your cause to lift others to continue working. But as we all know how the crypto industry works. It was hostile to those who are not working hard to earn knowledge about what he/she was doing. thats, why many are just leaving in this industry because they can't do it further. 
We all have different sad stories here in crypto space but if we are open to losses knowing the fact that crypto investment has no guaranteed profits most of the time, then we will not be easily discouraged and lost hopes. Investing in crypto is very risky so we should know how to invest wisely and invest only what we can afford to lose.
