3121  Economy / Speculation / Re: 60k price recovery achieved on: November 12, 2021, 08:05:56 PM
Ever since the Bitcoin all-time high price of 64k in April 2021 before it drops below 30k before recovering gradually and today another landscape was achieved with Bitcoin now selling for $60,234 this price indicates another exciting bull season before the end of the year 2021.
Since the bitcoin price managed to break the new ATH record it reached a few days ago, the upward trend in the price will continue in the rest of 2021. Even after the bitcoin ATH break a few days ago, many analysts predict the bitcoin price towards $100k early next year. Therefore, if you are a long-term investor, don't worry when the Bitcoin price drops slightly, take this opportunity to buy.
Hopefully, that can happen before the end of this year so we can celebrate the highest price of bitcoin by selling some bitcoin to make a big profit. And when the price drops again, that will be your good time to buy more bitcoin at a low price so you only need to hold with the other amounts of bitcoin that you already have. The last ATH can be broken in the future because bitcoin price can go towards the next highest price so we should have more patience to wait for that time.
Yes, most people predict that by the end of this year, the end of December to be exact, the bitcoin price is predicted to hit 100K and there are still a few more weeks to get there.
and I am still optimistic that it will happen and the current decline is the right time to buy bitcoin, and every time there is a new ATH there will be a decline or correction and after that it will rise again and exceed the previous ATH, so this decline is the right time to grow ownership because the new ATH will exist again and continue like that.
Another great opportunity to buy back at it is very cheap again. Yes, we still have a full month of December to really push the price to 6 digits, but we need some news to sell it to investors, a FOMO. Not sure what news it was or probably another ETF approved.

But I still positive that we are still very much in the bull run session, it's that that we need to stop this herd from running, refuel and give some breather. Because once again, if this bull continue to run up to December it will be hard to stop.

^^ I have them -2.5 though, it's the opposite beat but the result is the same.

It was a tight battle, Clippers took a good lead but the Miami Heat is not going away without a fight. 4 clutch FT though by Reggie Jackson seal the win for the Clippers. I thought though that there was a foul in the last play, but lucky for you the referee didn't make a call. So congrats as well.
3123  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: November 12, 2021, 10:19:16 AM
The Drummond block was questionable though. It could have been a 76ers possession but the referee failed to call it right and whistled for a foul.
They should've given the possession for 76ers instead since someone actually rebounded the ball or the other team should not have the choice for who will jump if ever a jump ball was called.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wkvvjKpvc9k

Gobert and Turner has this scuffle with multiple ejections. Just a couple of days ago we have the Jokic vs Morris incident and now this one.
Gobert don't usually fight even if he was beaten up below the rim but this one is different when Turner intentionally used his shoulder while running down.
Mitchell should also not overreact for those kind of fights that will cost them the entire game. There's still a lot of time there and its a waste for them to lose just because of that.
Regarding the jump ball, Drummond should have the advantage on that, however, they failed to capitalized and let the Raptors get the possession.

I've seen Gobert getting frustrated or irritated from time to time. Maybe Turner just got into his skin because in this game there are times that Gobert was covered during a alley-oop.

Yeah, some when Jimmy Butler wanted to take the whole Nuggets team. Maybe Mitchell just wanted to be the leader of this Utah team and send the message that if they messed with Utah, he will be the first one to go after them.
3124  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Lomachenko vs Commey - December 11 on: November 12, 2021, 08:45:05 AM
I am definitely rooting for Vasyl Lomachenko as I believe that Richard Commey will not be able to stand all the rounds against him. In my opinion this fight is a guaranteed way to increase my deposit. It is a pity that the bookmakers are giving too low odds to win Lomachenko.  

Well, the bookies need to make the money and they know for a fact that Loma is the favorite of this bout so what better thing to do than lower the odds on Lomachenko so they can secure large sums of profit. Lomachenko is way ahead against Commey so I don't see how Commey can get a win against Lomachenko. Maybe sheer determination or something like that.
Bookies have punters to make the odds for them, they can't simply manipulate it to be in their favor. From Vegas to fiat bookies to illegal bookies, everything should be in the norm. Otherwise it will raise a red flag and it might be a reason for investigations, although for crypto bookies we don't know who will do it but so far all reputable sports bookies doesn't have this case of manipulating the odds or something like that. They can make some adjustments, but if you are going to compare them to any other sports bookies the odds are going to be close enough.
3125  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Nonito Donaire vs Reymart Gaballo (WBC bantamweight) on: November 11, 2021, 10:59:24 PM
~snip~
Gaballo could introduce himself to the world if he wins in this match.
^ The chances that he could be a win is just a little and it is probably the odds are on the Donaire side.
I have felt that Gaballo will not able to win this fight since I know Donaire has been more experienced than Gaballo. However, I am baseless here when it comes to technical analysis because if luck is on Gaballo he could be able to introduce his name to the public.
Nevertheless, as I say, I don't want to guess and baseless point, let us see the fight if who will be gonna win.
His chance might be slim against Donaire, but he has to give his 100% in this fight. He respected Donaire and call him his idol. But when the bell rings, it's just the two of them and for sure he will fight to the 'death' because everything is on the line here. Because he knows if he win, then more fights for him in the future, means more money. And that's what most Filipinos are targeting, Manny Pacquiao did open the doors for them and many are trying to follow his footsteps, specially fame and glory and money.

I just find out that it's not easy to win going coinomi airdrops, I've participated in 10 different airdrops and never get paid at all so when I rechecked I always see like only 1000 people selected out of 300k or more, why airdrop in the first place when only few people will be selected ?
Now, airdrop is becoming a lottery? Lol, I haven't joined any airdrops since 2018 to be honest, so I don't know the landscape of it.

And it's pretty obvious that the airdrops you choose is somewhat reputable, - Coinomi and that's why it is limited to 1000 people alone. And as I have said, it's lottery so you need to get a lot of luck just to be able to get your name pick up. In any case, I'm sure majority of us here is done with airdrops anyways, not gonna waste my time on that. So I wish you good luck joining airdrops.
3127  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Lopez vs Kambosos - November 27 on: November 11, 2021, 09:15:23 PM

It's more on business than pride. I'm sure that Lopez would just fight whenever there's huge money involved. Most boxers focus on earnings than creating a name because some of them consider this field as a business and not a profession to pursue. However, I'm still hoping that they could make this match more exciting.

Yeah! more likely it's all about the money in the end just like when Casimero asked if he was willing to fight Inoue without any payment, he answered: "that cannot happen, money should be there of course". Most of the boxers just make it more exciting when they trash talk each other before the fight to sell as much pay per view. This is how the true nature of boxing where real cares are on the payment they could get on the fight, that's why we always see a long negotiation when huge money is on the table.

Of course it's business now, and this is 'professional prize fighting', it's their job to make money out of it. And if they can extend it to get more through trash talking for more attraction in PPV then they will do it. Only in the Olympic boxing wherein you will see the pride of a certain boxer. But in pro-fights, it's all for the money baby as Floyd said.
3128  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: November 11, 2021, 08:35:50 PM
I predicted the result of Lakers - Heat game wrongly as Lakers were the winning team by 120-117. But Heat played as good as them that Lakers were able to win this game after overtime. Lakers succeeded in beating them even in the absence of Lebron which is a good sign for them. Because this season, it is really hard to beat Miami Heat as they are quite solid so far.

With Lebron James not playing and Jimmy Butler having only ended up playing like 12mns before exiting with an injury, this game tells us next to nothing about these two teams and their future this year.  Missing these two players changes the entire dynamic of the teams.  I think the Lakers will only continue to get better and better and with both squads being fully healthy I'll take the Lake Show.
It just shows that the Lakers still need Lebron James to close the game and become the Lakers show.

Big factor when Jimmy Butler gets injured, otherwise, the Lakers could have a difficult time in this game and they could have lost against the Heat.

I agree that Miami Heat looks solid this year again, just like during the bubble when they reach the finals against the Lakers.

@Natalim. We do share our picks before the game and most of the time it's really early like 8 hours before it starts or maybe more.
Whether following them or not is up to you. We just don't want to be blamed in the end.  Roll Eyes
Your pick looks good but I am against the Clippers today. Miami Heat might be seeking revenge even if they are exhausted and the best way to show it is up against another Los Angeles.
My pick is Miami Heat +3.5. Just to be sure. Betting for the 76ers versus the Raptors might also be a good idea. If Green and Seth (questionable) will light up their 3 points shooting early then a win is easy to reach. The Raptors also just played yesterday.
I'll go with the Raptors, +2.5 here, and even if they are in a back to back games, they are the more healthier of the two teams here. Sixers are going to missed their key players so it's going to be difficult for them to sustain the full game.

Clippers for me vs Heat, -2.5. They have a big win against the Portland team, and PG13 is really playing like a MVP candidate again.
3130  Economy / Speculation / Re: New All Time High Baby! - $68,742.31 on: November 11, 2021, 12:22:04 PM
And the cycle continues, after hitting a new all time high, the market didn't sustained it's run to $70k at least. We've seen another correction (which is normal), 3% down now and counting.

So again, if the cycle continues then we have to wait for it to have a good bounce back after a week or two or at least leading to the actual date of the Taproot activation.

A small correction is alright, that's what strengthens the growth, and as long as the market is still bullish, there's nothing to worry about as bounce back after correction is likely to happen and at the same time we can always be optimistic that a new ATH will be achieved soon. I'm already thinking of the $70k price, once we hit that price, I expect the pump will continue and it's possible that $100k will likely come before the end of the year.

Keep believing as nothing is impossible in a bull market.
Yeah, it remain on that 3% range and it didn't go down hard. Just a natural reaction again to reaching new all time high, investors are selling for their profits.

And we still have a long way to go, it's just the second week of November and there could be surprises againsthat will push the price to $70k or even higher. Let's see how it goes, still a good and bright future ahead of us.
3131  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Casimero vs Butler ordered by WBO on: November 10, 2021, 11:35:58 PM
So within a Month time now Middle East is the place ? now Casimero must Show how tough His Hands than His Mouth after delivering too much Badmouthing the past months .

Though I am aiming for Him to Win over Butler because i also wanted Him to face Inoue to see if he can take the Monster that Donaire did not achieve in His first try.

Yup, Dubai is the place.

Don't worry, Casimero can back the talk  Grin. Trash-talking seems to be part of the strategy to sell fight and often times it is effective and sometimes not. In boxing, they said that there is no such thing as an easy fight but this Butler fight is just a warm-up fight for bigger things to come for Casimero considering that he won't let his guards down IMO.

Yep, that's one thing about Casimero though, he is so much brandish and talk talking seem to be the norm of his. But he can back it up but knocking down his opponents in fashion. Just look at what happen to Duke Micah in their last fight. Duke trying to bring the fight to John Riel, hitting him hard, but Casimero response back with a good knock down and Micah didn't recover after that. His face but bang up by Casimero's punches.

a very good move to team up with Torben Beltz.

Emma Raducanu has confirmed that Torben Beltz, the former long-time coach of Angelique Kerber,
will be her new coach as she prepares for her first full season on tour in 2022

Hopefully we will see her game develop in 2022 with some consistent wins and a good
development of her skills.
Yes, let's give her a chance in 2022, it was really big winning the US open and there could be huge pressure for this kid, not just to her, but to Fernandez too.

And with a new coach around, maybe we can see big improvement on her, specially the mental aspects of the game because that's what important as well. You can have all the talent in the world, but if your mind is not that strong or well trained, you can easily lose to anyone.
3133  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Lomachenko vs Commey - December 11 on: November 10, 2021, 06:44:38 PM
^ He only said that because he beats Loma already. And if we go with that argument of his, then he is the best lightweight right? So no surprised about his statement and there are no respect there.

He should really give Loma a deserving rematch next year because thinking of jumping to 140 lbs division. At least we can settle all the arguments as who is the best lightweight.

Maybe Lopez is waiting for Loma to age, he is already 33 years old, others may say that this is the age wherein boxers started to decline, but there could be argument that he is still in his prime.

So Lopez might be looking at Loma's performance against Commey here, if he sees that Loma is no longer at his peak then maybe he will give him a rematch. Unless the government bodies are going to force Lopez to defend against his mandatory Loma or be strip or his belt.
Nah, I think Loma is still in the best years of his boxing career, no way that he is not his prime despite being 33 years old. At that age, Manny Pacquiao is still destroying anyone from 147 lbs.

He just doesn't want to give Loma a rematch, simply at that. Maybe because he is afraid that he will lose this time when Loma is healthy.
3134  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: November 10, 2021, 06:07:03 PM
Hehe Morris acting like he was run over by a truck after giving a hard foul. He could have sent someone flying if it was someone smaller and not a bigger guy in Jokic. Call it cheap shot but I think what Jokic did was fine to send a message that he's not to be taken lightly. It would have been better if it was a push but Morris would have acted the same way.

That is something we normally see in the 90's era, but the difference is, they keep the intensity of the rivalry inside the court. Unlike what happened to this brothers who took the everything even in the social media. They kinda acting like kids quarreling in the social media lol.

However, I don't know why Jimmy Butler was so mad about it that he was willing to put his career on the line just to have a brawl with the whole Nuggets team lol.

What can you say about the Hawks slump though? they have been in the Eastern Conference finals last year and now they in a 5 game losing streak.
Probably with most of the teams have upgraded their roster, the Hawks have difficulty now to beat any team. Plus, Trae Young is not that effective as compare to last year, maybe because of the new rule. But I've notice is that he is not that aggressive compare to last year though. Collins, Bogdan and Gallinari should step up and help Trae in offense. They can match any team up to the 3rd quarter. But entering the last quarter, they seems to falter out.
3135  Economy / Speculation / Re: New All Time High Baby! - $66,974.77 on: November 10, 2021, 05:35:45 PM
Bump
-snip-
It looks like the high might currently be from KrakenUS at $67,777.70. I expect this will likely be a moving target for a little while now that we are into price discovery territory. Most people seem to think we could get up into the $80Ks  before we see the next large correction. I’m starting to wish I had a Bitcoin ticker for moments like this.

If Coinmarketcap.com is the benchmark though, it looks like the ATH is $67,673.74 according to their site: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/

I'm happy to use that as a consensus unless there's a more standard way.
I think it would be better to use it for now unless someone has a good alternative. Price in exchanges isn't a reference imo. Besides, tracking ATH in CMC is a lot easier Smiley
So far the price is hovering around $67.8k, hopefully we can see $80k soon!
The OP has updated the title of his thread with a new ATH already. So we don't need to argue as what is the current ATH as for sure it will be reset again in this month.

But I think we can't argue that it's good to see the price hitting ATH after last month. Strong hands are rejoicing for holding, while those weak hands who sold early are trying to get back in the market again.

$80k is not that easy goal, but for sure we can take it slowly.
3136  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: November 09, 2021, 10:36:24 PM
Curry still doing his thing and the GSW strength in numbers, what a performance from him tbh, it's totally the Curry we always wanted to see.

By the way, I think Markieff deserves that shouldered from Jokic, I mean he shouldn't have reacted it that way when there's no clearly foul when  Jokic got that ball, he should have his cool. Jokic as far as I can see played a good defense there and Markieff after that shove looks like was just acting, any thoughts? That was hilarious from Jimmy Butler that "Let's fight in the back".

I think there is absolutely no place for what Jokic did, with Markieff having his back turned and all, it could have been way worse and Morris could have suffered a more serious injury looking at the weight of Jokic and Morris being literally unaware of what was coming. Jokic will most likely be suspended for multiple games, I think.

And be fine too, I know that Jokic is disappointed with the performance of his team right now, and he is the reigning MVP. But what he did was not acceptable, it's a cheap shot. Sure Morris had foul him hard to stop them, but the way he responded blind sided a guy.

Acting or not, Jokic has the bad intention to bring the guy down. For sure the NBA are going to look at this issue, regardless if you are the reigning MVP of the league.

As the commentator said, Jokic has a history with the Morris brother, what Jokic did here was not cool but Markieff started it and you can tell that Jokic was just reacting, he maybe cannot control his emotion anymore but I think Markieff deserved that.

And the sad part is that it was Jokic was is caught again, Lol.

Yes, suspensions + fine, lots of emotions on that game. And that's Jimmy Butler for you, trying to protect his team mates.

For sure there could be more after this, we all know that this brothers are not going to settle down like this.

3138  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tennis League All Thread on: November 09, 2021, 11:09:30 AM
I don't watch until the end, just on leg 1 when he loses (4-6), I think the situation will the same as US open when he loses (4-6,4-6,4-6), yes the same number as I can see Deja Vu because of that I'm going to sleep. Surprised me, when I look at the result, he turns things around, Lucky him not going lost for 4, just stop to 3. (4-6,6-3,6-3). Congrat for Jokovic and congrats for keeping as no.1 until this year.

I didn't watch it because a Djokovic match is usually quite boring, he is so much better than everyone else and always wins. The US Open was an anomaly because of the immense pressure he put himself under going for the 4x slams... he is a much better player than Medvedev.

Djokovic does seem to quite often lose the first set against opponents, but you always know he win come back and win, even when it's only a first to two sets match. The only time he's really going to have an opponent at his level is against Nadal on clay. Let's hope Nadal is fully fit in Paris next year!
Medvedev is at Novak's level for me, losing against him in Paris doesn't mean anything, also don't forget he beat him 3-0 in the US Open not that long ago.
And about Nadal, It's a little bit concerning how long he has been out of competition this year, I hope he doesn't come back out of shape, which was not a problem since he took longer breaks even from and he came back strong,
Of course, he beat Djokovic in US Open, and there head to head are close as well, 6-4.

Medvedev even acknowledge Djokovic's accomplishment.

However, I think Djokovic still possesses that hunger and dedication inside of him. That's why even at his age, he can compete with this young guns and continue to win big tournaments.



Murray is the outstanding favorite, but his opponent is relatively unknown.
3139  Other / Off-topic / Re: Deron Williams to fight in an undercard on Tommy Fury vs Jake Paul fight. on: November 09, 2021, 09:23:54 AM

Maybe the one that drove Deron Williams to enter exhibition matches is his interest in boxing and MMA for a long. It was reported that he owned a stake in Fortis MMA, a Mixed Martial Arts facility that trained MMA fighters.

And there might be a misunderstanding to others as Deron Williams will not fight Jake Paul. He is just on the undercard, as clearly stated on the subject and up to now, there's no official opponent.
Yep this could be one reason why he wanted to be in the 'scene', sort of. And he used to be a wrestling as well while he was in college. So maybe he could have the discipline and train to fight in the Fury vs Paul fight.

He needs to scratch that itch so to speak and that's why he is a willing participant and will make his boxing debut in the card.

I also saw the price hitting $68k and I check cmc it's say $68,500 so indeed a new all time high for us.

Of course this is just in preparation for the $100k that we all expected to happen in December.

So we need to just stay relatively calm for this current upsurge. It's surely makes everyone happy, but the end goal for all of us is that 6 digits so better not push that sell button for now.
