3241  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Altcoins worth investing at dip on: January 20, 2022, 03:27:07 PM
It is best of course to invest in top altcoins because investing in new altcoins can lead to the loss of all your investments,

Not at all, it is sometimes new altcoins are went profiting as well but you were still in the point that it was too risky investing in them and many of them are worthless.
While this dip is still on its way, it gonna be our chance to ride on it and buy more. Buying potential altcoins are a great idea but of course, investing in hypes coins is good too as for short-term investment. maybe you could try investing Metaverse as well, that seems profiting.
the comparison is very small, only a few of them get it regardless of being ogled by fomo and influencers or indeed the project is good but it is very difficult to get it.
indeed we can't deny that not all new alts are bad but indeed only 1 in a hundredth or even more to get something good like that because most of them are meme coins or shitcoins
Meme coins are not shitcoins IMO, but it depends on how you see it. It's just that meme coin is not a scam while shitcoins are obviously a scam, if they'll pump, they'll die easily unlike meme coin like DOGE and Shiba which still has good liquidity despite the market is already bearish.

If it's confirmed then please share the source of the information.

I read that they have a meeting with the president of El-Salvador but the agenda was not bitcoin or cryptocurrency.
So I would love to read the full information on where yours is coming from.

Nah, I wouldn't be too sure with that, anything could go crazy especially in the bear market, the same thing happens in a bull market, price is rising with no limit, so better prepare for a possible huge dumps that would cause the market to panic, call it a normal day in cypto.

^^ It was indeed good to see the Bulls stopping their 4 game losing streak. There are games in that 4 game that they could have won the game if now for late meltdown and defense mental lapses.

But not in this game, they go and focus on this game because they know that their top seed is on the line here. And then they have a good player who come up big in Dosunmu who has the most minutes by any Bulls and score 18 big points.

Without Lavine they won, congrats to the team and the players who lead the win,  Vucevic had 24 while DeRozan had 30. At least now they are back to start winning again, I hope Lavine will be back soon so they'll have a complete and healthy lifestyle.

DeRozan and Vucevic are once a leader back when they are both with their previous teams.

They can handle pressures and capable of bringing the hypes to lift the entire team. Now they just show it in Chicago
they both have huge contributions.

Good to see that they are now start winning game and personally I'm going to expect a good winning streak even
Lavine still resting..

I'm not, it's really different if Lavine is playing. Good thing that the Nets are also struggling as well that's why they are still at the top, but they need some consistency nnd it's hard to do that without Lavine. Next game is against the Atlanta Hawks, I think they can still handle it even on the road.
3245  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Let's pay attention to BNB? on: January 19, 2022, 12:21:22 PM
I think BNB is one of the best altcoins to invest in right now, because BNB has very strong potential and fundamentals in the market, so the demand for BNB is increasing from time to time, I think this is the right time to start buying BNB because of the price still very affordable.
In a corrected condition like now the demand has never increased sharply, you can immediately see the amount of volume in several exchanges and if at CMC it is very clear that USDT volume has started to increase again, shifting BNB to rank 4
That's a sign that people are starting to convert their altcoins to stable coins so they will not lose if the market will be bearish. BNB is still at a good ranking, it's currently number 4 now but eventually, it will pump again as the market turns bullish. What's important is that its liquidity is still good as we still have some good news circulating around.
3246  Economy / Economics / Re: 2022 Savings and investment plan on: January 19, 2022, 11:44:22 AM
In 2021 I made a lot of mistakes, namely investing in coins that pump for a moment which is in the top gainers tab coinmarketcap, now is the time to switch to investing in top coins so that I can make savings and investments in the future because I hope to be able to retire from work and enjoy vacations soon and do a hobby that I love.

Well, that's a pump and dump type of coins, you'll get good profit from it when you know how to ride and you knew what you're dealing with in a short period of time, but it bears more risks that investing into a coin that already have established their names in crypto space.
Fortunately, what you choose to be investing next really suits your plan on some early retirement to enjoy a better life without all the pressure and stress from your day job. Crypto is the real life hack.

These are only good for people who love to risk. Pump and dump are for those who understand how the market moves or let's say an expert to that. However, if you don't have that kind of skills, then maybe holding good altcoins and bitcoin will make you profitable in the future.

Investing in crypto is risky in general, that's why you need to learn how to play the game.

$1 million is a lot of money, you are already a millionaire at that stay.

I suggest you invest half which is $500k in bitcoin and the rest is for altcoins. I wouldn't recommend a particular altcoins but it's better if you invest on a legit ones, like the ones who already established their market in the space and has a high liquidity.
3248  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: January 18, 2022, 01:40:11 PM
Los Angeles Lakers played a home match against Utah Jazz this morning and it was really competitive at the same time. Lakers owe their 101-95 victory to Lebron James as always. He got 25 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists and he was close to a triple-double. Even though Jazz were in a much better condition than them, they still got an important win. Lakers are still not that great of course as they are fully depending on Lebron. They need to get better than this otherwise their work would be difficult in the playoffs.

Jazz played a back-to-back game, Lakers are fresh and they are playing at home, so it was the Lakers who are more conditioned and they beat a good team, so it's good for them as they silence those who doubted them for awhile. If they have that kind of consistency, then probably we will see them beating good teams like Jazz.
3249  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which Is The Safest Meme Coin To Invest In? on: January 14, 2022, 11:03:16 PM
If you want to be safe, don't invest in meme coins.

Sorry, I just don't see the potential of meme coins in the long run, if not for the hype of Elon Musk, we wouldn't know that meme coins do exist. Doge is the father of meme coins but I don't like the fact that it was only popular due to hype not due to the real purpose of meme coin.
3250  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Your guidance is needed on: January 14, 2022, 10:45:44 PM
Avoid Ponzi schemes. Always be doubtful when someone or some platform offers a huge return as it's a 101% scam. Learn from your mistakes, start small, and don't get too aggressive, slowly but surely, that's the way you should do.

Lastly, DYOR ( Do your own research), that's the due diligence when investing, and don't only focus on one source, you can use the forum to ask for suggestions and other popular platforms that are not biased or solely controlled by the owner.
3251  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: January 14, 2022, 10:22:04 PM

On the other hand though, if this will happen then more opportunities for other players. They don't need to wait longer just to have spots in the teams that we have right now but they will have more teams to choose with. What are the chances that this will happen? I don't know because if the PBA really wanted to expand and add more teams then they should've done it long time ago already but they aren't doing it until now.

That's right, and the salary will be more competitive as well as the competition is getting tougher. Actually, we have a lot of talented basketball players but only few of them are given the opportunity due to the limited number of big leagues, with the increasing popularity of MPBL, that gives them a good chance.

The basketball league is a business, MPBL players will only get more players if they are making good money from sponsors and from the live audience. So they need to be more popular and get good coverage in our favorite channels. Maybe a live stream on youtube and Facebook too, that would help increase their popularity.
They will also hit the mainstream soon and become the second big professional league, this is indeed a side business for those companies and they earn a lot for sure on the previous conferences, MPBL need a good exposure and hopefully to give more talented Pinoy a chance to play. Basketball is growing in our country even if there’s a pandemic, it is still living on a good position.

More exposure gives them more chances to play overseas, now that Japan is getting Filipino imports, I think it will not only limit to that country as Asia is big and surely the talents of the Pinoy players will be noticed. They work hard and they'll be rewarded, and at the same time, it will excite our fans because we are goign to see them in bigger leagues.
3252  Economy / Economics / Re: Banks will die crypto will take over in 5-10 years on: January 14, 2022, 02:26:34 PM
It is so hard to come to think that banks will die off.  Not really but it is possible cryptocurrency can be more superior than the bank time to come. The bank will still exist , many will like to invest in cryptocurrency instead saving their money in the bank for nothing which won't have any value.
I would disagree with that, although the cryptocurrency is already popular nowadays but I still believe that the fiat system is more superior, and with that said, the banking system is still intact and profitable, they collect deposits and people trust them because they offer insurance, unlike in crypto where it's a high risk.

Saving money is good for banks while investing is good for crypto, I believe that way.

Warriors are on a 2 losing streak now.

just like their previous game, they are once again getting dominated again. What do you think are the reasons for this loss? is KT can be partially be blamed for this loss? I think their chemistry was ruined a bit when he joined the team, the hype was there and we expected they'll become a stronger team, but look what is happening now.
3254  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: STAKE SCAMMED FOR $80K on: January 13, 2022, 11:03:14 PM
Will you provide proof of the accusation, like a screenshot of the conversation, I think that would help to support your accusation. You can just blur the important information though, just to convince the community that you are telling the truth.

However, if the documents you submitted do not comply with the TOS of the gambling site, then you cannot blame them, you have no choice but to produce valid documents as required.
3255  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: January 13, 2022, 10:34:16 PM
If the PBA wants to grow, they can increase the number of teams so more players with potential will have a chance to play. Some players in the B-League did not play in the PBA before they get to that league, some names are Thirdy Ravena, Kobe Paras and Dwight Ramos. So B-Leauge does not only focus their selection from the PBA, but in the entire basketball league in the Philippines.

Speaking of Dwight Ramos, seems he has built a name on his own in Japan and the way i looked at it, he is now a superstar plus the fact that his looks is not far from a Japanese actor, seems to me that we have to wait for a long time before we can see him play in the PBA. This no-nonsense kid is earning a lot so i think an offer of contract extension is likely to happen.

I just don't know why the PBA is having a hard time expanding. There are many companies years ago who have offered to enter the PBA but that didn't materialized maybe because of conflict of business interest.

When Phoenix tried to enter PBA for the first time, it was blocked by Petron. Chooks-to-go has sent an intent to join PBA but one team suddenly changed its name to Magnolia Hotshot "Ang Pambansang Manok" lol.

PBA is not for everyone, so eventually, this league will be surpassed by a better league and I guess MPBL is a close competition. I like their set up, more like an NBA set up and players are really given an opportunity. PBA will not change for sure as long as the Pangilinan and Cojuangco are the major owners of the team, they run the business and can influence the PBA management.
That's correct, PBA are only for the teams who have the money while MPBL gives access to every localities that want to participate, their set-up are way better just like in NBA and I also hope that they grow more in the future since PBA are slowly losing their integritiy, politics are too much in PBA that's why many players decided not to play on PBA and go abroad instead.

Slowly but surely, MPBL is now a pro league.
https://www.sunstar.com.ph/article/1915527/cebu/sports/mpbl-officially-now-a-pro-league

Let's continue wishing for the best as they create opportunities for players who have no chance of playing in the PBA due to high requirements, in MPBL, even actors can play like Gerald Anderson as long as they contribute to the team.

I'm one of the holders and I'm patiently waiting for KIN to grow. I didn't find a chance to sell it during the bull run because I'm thinking it could rise more, so this means another year of holding because the market is not bullish anymore, then for sure KIN will be stagnant for a while.

Also, I'm hoping soon it will be listed in Binance, which would help boost its trading volume.

3257  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Errol Spence Jr vs. Yordenis Ugas 3-Belt Welterweight Unification Match on: January 13, 2022, 08:58:27 AM

Both of them has something to proved, Spence wanted to remain on top of this division, while Ugas wanted to show that his win is no fluke against Pacman.

And this is a great style matchup, both can be aggressive and can also play defensive and then be a counter puncher so this is really a great fight in paper although Spence will be the favorite but it will be more closer that we anticipated it to be.

Spence is not as active as Ugas, that's another thing to consider also although Spence is very good on paper we upset happen like what happened with the games between Ugas and Pacman. If the odds of Ugas will be so undervalued, then I might change my mind and will put my bet on Ugas, I'm sure he will not go down easily if he losses in the fight.
Ugas is undoubtedly one of the best boxers out there, and if he has more activity for now, which in boxing this is very beneficial, on the other hand Spence is not a boxer to measure in terms of a statistic as such, Spence has A lot of skill and his training is very hard, I know that Ugas has proven to be a very strong boxer, but with Spence I think things could change, if the fight were already, I don't know which way to lean, I think I still have many doubts.


There's still time left to analyze where you will lean. Both are champions, this fight is the battle of champions but only one will win. Ugas is definitely the most active but we know Spence is the most talented, so you need to choose based on that criteria, if you believe hard work beats talent then most likely Ugas will be the right bet.
3258  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Casimero vs Butler ordered by WBO on: January 13, 2022, 08:19:02 AM
I know some but I won't mentioned the name as I don't want to hurt the fans feelings, lol.

I will mention it for you, are you referring to Floyd Mayweather?  Grin

Don't worry about that, we are in a free world, we have the freedom to criticize if we don't like the boxer, besides, they are successful because of us, we watch the fight and we pay for it. Did you know that Casimero beat Mayweather's bro? Kidding.. that was Rigo and  they have the same style.
Boxing sports does have that very main aim or goal which is to hit and not being hit even if it means dodging kind of fiighting style even most fans doesnt prefer on having this kind of fight but
it does surely counts and these boxers do retain that kind of fighting even though they do get some hate and discrimination but they do able to achieve those stats which hadnt been still
beaten up which is amazing on some point and disappointing at the same time.Its true that we could speak things freely since this is a forum after all which
it would really be understandable.

haha, yes we are in a free world and we can criticize a boxer we want to, but that is with respect. Floyd is an undefeated champion, the number 1 pound for pound during his era and beat MP, I think he already have everything, unfortunately his style is very boring.
3259  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: January 12, 2022, 11:50:20 PM
...
Reggie Jackson is very reliable, even in the playoffs last season, we saw his consistency and now with the absence of PG and Leonard, they are still competing as a team despite the fact that their ranking is going down but I still see the spirit of competitiveness and toughness in a game as they beat some good teams also.
I wouldn't say he's really reliable despite their comeback win. Eleven out of thirteen points in the fourth quarter is nice but I'm pretty sure the coach would prefer if he was more productive in both first and second half. They won but they were still lucky that almost everything is dropping for them late in the game. Kudos to their competitive spirit which allowed them to crawl back.
Exactly, if we talk about consistency, it should be from the start to finish. The Clippers are struggling now, that's just one of the games where they were lucky, however, we cannot expect too much from this team since for me they are already out in the playoff picture without their 2 best players.
3260  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: January 12, 2022, 11:19:43 PM

No, I have no idea about that. I guess if players are getting a lot of money, for sure the coaches are getting bigger, however, I don't think coach Victolero would bite the offer as he is already in a good team and good management where he can secure his retirement as long as his team will continue to be competitive.

That's new to my ears, not sure but Japan B-League is really trying to bring our talents to their country not just the players but also coaches, it's not impossible since they have all the resources and by looking with how Coach Victolero is doing right now interest is very possible to happen, he can share his views with players and he can add his talent to help any team from B-League.

But same with how you look at it, he's now with SMB corp. Long-term relationship wise, he can retire with a much more secure future.

Also, there's no assurance that he will stay longer as he is playing like an import coach where the contract could be short-term if the team does are not satisfied with his coaching performance. The bigger league has bigger competition, so it's a risk for him if he will take the offer.
