My Luck is not for Trading, I think Trading is not for Me.  I try it many time, and i understand that trade isn’t for me. Every time i lost my Satoshi on Buy/Selling,  becouse i haven’t any expression about Coin Chart, buy, sell and about more.          

Trading is not really for everyone as it's not easy to be successful in trading, sometimes it will take years before you master trading and be consistently profitable. But I admire you as you are honest with yourself, it's only you who can convince if you still continue or you end your journey, maybe you are good at something else, then just try to explore other venture where you can be effective and you'll be successful.

Good luck mate and hopefully you'll be successful in the next venture you'll try.

I don't know where TBH.

As per the article shared, it was just an opening odds, I just checked the odds again in my book and I can't find it.
The article was release prior to the covid-19 pandemic but if it will be available in sportsbook, it might change a bit since at that odds, I think people will be attracted  betting on Pulev, for those who don't know how to read the odds.

For Pulev, if you bet $100, you will get $1100 if you win.
For Joshua, you need to bet $2500 in order to win $100, I guess.

Oh well, the odds clearly show where the smart money is going  Grin

It will be stupid for the government to ban cryptocurrency, they don't have any idea how it would help their economy grow.

What they are doing is they are blocking the revolutionary technology that would change how people treat money and this will eliminate boundaries because bitcoin and its blockchain knows no boundaries. I hope they will re-evaluate this before making a decision because if other countries allows crypto then why can't they? what would be their reason?

I believe banning is bad and the fines is too harsh, government suppose to serve the people so they should listen to people before making a decision.


The thing is governments don't really agrees on bitcoin and cryptocurrencies because of its decentralization that they no one control it. They also think that bitcoin is only being used for illegal activities like scams and fraud, that is why it is hard for them to accept it as a legal currency.
Paper money or fiat can also be use in illegal activities, bitcoin is decentralized but that is only on the blockchain, but the moment it's exchange in fiat, the anonymity of the holder will be lost. What they need to do is to further study crypto and exert other measures to minimize the risk.

Banning is not the solution, that might look them incapable of regulation are revolutionary technology, as they are the government which has the power to regulate, why not just regulate exchanges and businesses that accept crypto as a payment.

They don't look on the good side of bitcoin that it could really help their economy by giving unemployed people a source of income.

That's why they need to re-evaluate and by considering all the positive and the negative and then make a final decision.

Wow, this is good but what can we expect from the chat?

There must be a chat moderator to ensure that there will be no spam of messages and referral posted. I haven't sigh up yet but based on my observation, chat is just abuse by the FUDDERS and those who like to hype to let people FOMO.

My initial statement before checking this feature, might update and will edit this post.
What we can expect is there are different discussions wherein there will be lots of information coming from other people. You can also share your thoughts anytime you want.

I am not quite sure if there is a mod but I agree to your statement. This might be abused by fudders and take advantage to the people who will fall from their trap.

I joined the Binance chat and that's my experience so I shared it here.

When the chat is open for all, different people will show different opinion, some are not even real so it's not really attractive to me, and I don't want to back read some comment especially when there's a lot of non sense comments, just like a telegram group in ICO/IEO where there's a lot of active members but only few who genuinely know about the project.

3106  Economy / Economics / Re: Covid-19 effect on your country's economy!!! on: June 16, 2020, 10:02:35 AM
There's a big effect, especially on the entertainment sector like movie industry and sports since they are not allowed to resume its operation yet.
As of now, sectors  allowed to resume fully are those who provide essential services to the people and that would mean other sector will suffer.
Transportation sector now are also struggling due to social distancing and they can't get their usual number of passengers, hence it will result to smaller profit or even a loss in operation. I don't know when this pandemic will be over and since no vaccine yet, I'm hoping our country will find a way to as a protocol to lower the risk of virus spread while the economy will continue to recover.
3107  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Binance: $BNB The Future of Exchanges. on: June 16, 2020, 09:12:06 AM
$BNB the ONLY coin where you can invest in the exchange. This will be a top coin for chinese/international traders. Eventually it will only be 100M supply.
very promising indeed if you hold the BNB, and invest since BNB was launched,
in my opinion Binance will be the best exchange platform in the future, and of course BNB prices will also rise

for now the BNB exchange is very promising and when viewed from the volume absorbed to date it is still the best of all exchangers. very sure that BNB exchange will continue to survive with the addition of renewable innovations, of course many will join because it is clearly mutually beneficial. not to mention the pretty good BNB tokens will certainly add trust.

Therefore it's nice to buy BNB at the current stage, it's still cheap although we may say that it has already increase many times but there's still more room to grow for BNB as devs are very active in developing the project. You can tell that you have a big mission and they want to spread their influence in the crypto space, in fact, even if people will say BNB is centralized, I think it has a better future than ETH.

So base on its price now which is less than 20 usd, it's not impossible for BNB to rise $100 or even $1,000 in the future.
I would say, you'll have the confidence when you are holding BNB in your wallet seeing they are working for progress.

3109  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: June 15, 2020, 11:24:23 AM
That racism issue does not only happen now, it happen in the past already and NBA is not tolerating that.
as you can see:

Clippers Owner Donald Sterling Banned for Life from NBA for Racist Remarks

That is April 2014.
Next to that is Jordan admitting he is racist at his young age.
May 2014 with the same source of article.  Grin
https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2054700-michael-jordan-admits-he-considered-himself-a-racist-as-a-child

Happens to everyone when you experience a bad behaviour from another race or color.
I don't think this can be ended since there is still hatred living on each child or each person.

They should still resume NBA and let people know that there could be peace whatever color you may be.
You could be team mates or even better, brothers.

I'm pretty sure the NBA organization wants the season to resume, players can't stop them even with these controversy now.

Actually, they have to be professional as they are "professional player" NBA organization has nothing to do with racism as the organization itself has even ban an NBA team owner for just a racist remark.

What else do they need to see?

They belong in an organization that accepts different races, in fact, NBA opens up the organization for talents from different countries, that's why we've seen a lot of international players being popular in NBA, some example are, Luka Doncic, Dirk Nowitzki, Tony Parker, Manu Ginóbili, and many more.
3110  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Home Court advantage = Not an advantage now because of no-live audience? on: June 15, 2020, 10:06:39 AM
Yeah Audience is a big factor for every Game that happened in Home court but i believe that team will still win even there are no fans shouting and cheering each game like what they use to have.
The better team will always win, home court advantage is not a factor anymore but prior to the pandemic it was a big factor that is why if different teams which are both good, the team that are playing in their home court will always be the favorites, that tells home court adds value to their chances of winning.

I have been playing basketball for lifetime now and sometimes in our Court there are few fans that attending because the opponents mostly brings their big group yet we are winning you know why?Because Our heart is Field of dedication and focus that we need to win inside our court,i think these Players will have the same views whenever the game needs to happen because of no option now but to obey the rules of social distancing and no social groupings.

As a player you can feel and experience it, so how much more in a major sports that a lot of fans attended in the venue rooting for the home team to win.
While playing at the home, it will increase their motivation to win, but as what I have said, now it's not a factor anymore.
3111  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [ POLL ]: Boxing - Anthony Joshua vs Kubrat Pulev on: June 15, 2020, 06:04:57 AM
Pulev could pull off a shock, it is a possibility that should not be discounted. The smart money is obviously on Joshua to win but if he takes his eye off the ball and gets complacent after the win over Ruiz, it might be a tough fight against Pulev.

I agree, Pulev is a live dog here, although I voted for Anthony Joshua to win, and I think there are no pressures on Pulev side, he just need to relax show his best version and test Joshua to his limit.

If Joshua came like he did against Ruiz I, too over confident, cocky and thinks he can just go fight square against Pulev, there could be a good chance for an upset here.

   I voted for Joshua, too, I think he will win. Interesting prediction from the sport news writer "Joshua will knock out
Pulev in the fourth round".
   Joshua is taller and has bigger reach, in boxing that is an advantage! If he learned his lesson against Ruiz he will
not get into fights cocky ever again.
   Odds on Joshua are low, I will not place a bet, but I will watch this fight! Agree with you JollyGood, if Pulev gets
into fight relaxed without pressure he can make a surprise here.
Definitely he learn a lot against Ruiz and he beat Ruiz convincingly in a rematch.

I think Joshua is going to use his advantage and he shouldn't be overaggressive trying to knock out his opponent in an early rounds, that's juts my expectation but of course I would like to see some real action here as his opponent IMO is better than Ruiz and this guy also has some good power although near at retirement age already. Joshua will try not to make a mistake here, otherwise it will be his 2nd defeat against an underdog fighter.
3112  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Online casino searches at "all time high" during lockdown on: June 15, 2020, 05:39:37 AM
Crypto casinos are surely gonna benefit on this, fiat gambling could be safer but they required a lot for gamblers especially the KYC and linking your payment system to their gambling site, but here in crypto everything is simple, one can gamble anonymously and moving money is very easy and it only requires one to pay a very cheap transaction fee especially if a gambler is using altcoins to gamble.

This is just my opinion as there's no data or study yet that I have read about the increase of gamblers in crypto casinos, but I certain in one way or another, crypto casinos are benefiting on this.
3113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Manny Pacquiao Might Fight Golovkin on: June 14, 2020, 01:09:33 PM
There's no odds for this fight as it's only an speculation until now, though the camp of Manny showed interest on fighting Golovkin but this fight is not yet confirmed, but in case it's going to be realize, I think Golovkin will be the favorite here.

Obviously Golovkin is going to be the favorite. What do you expect, when a middleweight fighter takes on someone from the lightweight/welterweight division? The latter will have to deal with a huge disadvantage. The only chance of Pacquiao winning the bout, is if his opponent is very incompetent. And unfortunately for him, Golovkin is the best among the middleweight boxers right now.

We never know yet, I respect both fighters, they are both good but we only need to choose one to back between the two.
I don't want to doubt Manny even if he will be fighting a bigger boxer because he has done this before, it's a very important fight for him as he is trying to break his record and making history again, and that could probably dethrone Mayweather from the number 1 list.

Golovkin  is gonna be the favorite but I would be happy with that as taking money with good betting odds would give good return if he wins.
So like most members here voted for him to win, I too hope he will win if this fight's going to happen.
3114  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Most trusted projects ruined me !! on: June 14, 2020, 12:10:45 PM
Late 2017 and early 2018 i was holding lots of coins and tokens from the ico's in that some i really trusted with solution and team (not only me most of crypto community trusted). Now this coins or token became nothing .
There's a problem with timing of accumulating a coin, you accumulated during peak which is the timing for selling. 
If you have followed a simple principle which is to "Buy at dip and sell at peak" you might have not bought at that time and you'll wait until the market dump due to correction, it was all FOMO that time that's why the price went crazy, not only in bitcoin but most altcoins as well, in fact a lot of people make good profit on altcoins as they are the most profitable that time.

But some projects i entered  to sell for small margin profit these projects given profit . So holding token or coin for long term is meaningless.

Like I said, if you were able to do it at a good timing, you'll not regret because holding is still a good strategy as long as you hold a legit coins that has a great potential to succeed in the future.

We should know about this.

3115  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Good ProjectS Review, before your investment in 2020 year on: June 14, 2020, 10:32:34 AM
Hy, If you want to invest in a project then you will need analysis about those projects before your investment. Since It is very important to keep our money safe because we do not support losses our money.


1. CEO (Of Course almost 5-10 years experience)
2. Team ( Clear they're Linkedin/Twitter profile)


I only cut the most important for me, when I research a project to invest I don't usually read everything as it consumes a lot of time, you know as a busy person I also have a lot of things to attend to, so I just look at some pointers which is what I quoted from your post.

The CEO and the team comprises the project is very important, but knowing the CEO, you'll be able to see his experience and his achievements in life, it has to be publicly published so investors will be aware, and if the CEO is something I think would lead a success to the project, then I invest. However, I don't put everything that I have to one project only, regardless on how good or reputable the CEO, I always follow my principle to always diversify the risk.

I don't believe in this article, on the exchange related example, I don't think one would pay for the bribe knowing the hackers are in control of the exchange, that's not a smart thing to do, if hackers will empty the exchange, they can do so, so why take a smaller amount when they can empty all the exchange money? doesn't make sense for me.  Roll Eyes
3117  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Home Court advantage = Not an advantage now because of no-live audience? on: June 13, 2020, 01:34:41 PM
Yes the crowd cheering is one of the key factors to boost players fighting spirit especially if they're about to lose. We've seen it in NBA team like GSW but other team does not benefit from these because it puts pressure on a player to not let down their supporters.

GSW is a good team, they have a very lively crowd as well but they are not a good team this season, so maybe we will can forget them for for a while and let Curry and Thompson fully recover from injury to bring back the old GSW whose been dominating the league for many seasons in the past.

Yes, there is no crowd anymore for NBA, and the crowd is one of the big advantage to make the players play an inspired basketball but we know what the situation is, we can't implement what is not anymore possible since it would only make the problem worst.

Get used to it, NBA players will still play while we gather in our respective home and enjoy watching a live games on TV.
3118  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Any use for failed cryptos? on: June 13, 2020, 12:52:56 PM
The question is, has it really failed already?

I am not familiar with the coin/token in the OP as I have not been following new projects lately, and have obviously have not invested as well.
With your question about it's use, I think when you call a project as a failure, it's not useful anymore as it does not have a good value and investors does not believe on the specific project.

Per https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/synereo/, there's no data yet, probably a new project?
3119  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: WTF is going on in crypto 💣 on: June 13, 2020, 11:08:17 AM
I really can't trust the market now, it seems like there's a lot of good news but knowing how the market are dominated by the whales, I can't be fully bullish although I like to see it as it will not only benefit bitcoin but the altcoins market as well.

With lack of regulation in crypto, although the fiat system will suffer, people will remain confident with the government, so crypto adoption is not gonna grow as expected, maybe we need more time and maybe if bitcoin countries will struggle, I think that is the time we can see some investment pouring in the crypto space, but this is just also my opinion.
3120  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do you make a trade or investment decision? on: June 12, 2020, 11:44:38 AM
There's a lot of resources you can check so you'll be more updated the news in crypto.

IIRC, there was an app before in my android phone that I install and there are some features on the crypto news, coinstats, blockfolio and delta.. these are the apps I installed and had input  all my asset portfolio but I am not actively checking them now as most of my assets are altcoins and they are not doing well as of now.

The more the basis the better, but make sure you get an information on the reliable sites, just to ensure you don't get mislead and you'll be able to make the best decision when trading and investing.

Popular sites now IMO is cointelegraph, coinmarketcap, and etc.
