3321  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Market is recovering, what steps are you taking? on: July 05, 2021, 04:05:12 PM
what are the decisions you're making now, will you wait for this new market development not to be a trap before investing again or you'll risked it and buy more coins?

If I am for a long run then definitely I will accumulate  while the market is recovering.  This means I am able to buy at a discount since it was way too cheaper than its peak price.  It would be a sad thing to just watch and see the possible profit pass by.  So as long as I have free money I will definitely buy more until the time I think I am stashing enough.

Good thing to do if you are into investment, buying while the value still cheap is the best thing to do. Using your spare money and treat things for long term goals gives you that comfort that in anyhow the market will start to recover and brings you decent amount of profits.

Make sure though to set your target and have that willingness to wait till the time come and hit your goals.
3322  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why the martingale system sucks! (doubling down on losses) on: July 05, 2021, 03:43:10 PM
Imagining and considering the house edge then you would really be on the risk on busting out in no time.Its just really hard to prolonging the game on just depending with this common strategy.
I doubt whether any of the strategy will work in the long run, when i started betting i thought it was easy to win as i was winning most of the time and when time went on, the strategy started backfiring and it is hard to predict.

 Usually in the past i had a routine, before rolling big i would roll with small bets for a while and analyze how my seed is and then start increasing my bet amount and for a while it was successful but then you will end up loosing, you need to be really lucky to win in the long run.

You need to have that luck and quit while you still have that chance, if you stay longer then expect that the outcome will turned against you.

Lots of gamblers do have the same experienced thinking that they've got that better  chance and luck is already behind them,
but when losing strict start to show up all those early gains together with their bankroll are being suck up.

Martingale will leave you nothing if you'll use it without any good control with both emotions and your balance.
3323  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The First Bank In Mexico Is About to Start Accepting Bitcoin on: July 05, 2021, 02:42:48 PM
I think this is good news for all crypto lovers of mexico and whole world also. When a bank owner give such kind of announcement we can be hopeful where too many negative news around us like China not accepting crypto recent days. I think Ricardo Salinas Pliego has realize the importance of BTC for future days and hope another bank owners will follow him.

If domino effects take place with this decision, it will surely brings positive impact to this entire industry.

Bitcoin already have supporters and with the addition of more  institutional business it will attract more and more people to also use this system.

Positive news is better today since those negative are dominating especially the news from China's ban.
3324  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: To what extent can sport be strengthened with cryptocurrencies on: July 04, 2021, 03:40:33 PM
we are in times when the blockchain through cryptocurrencies is entering a new moment for sports, before which and how far will we advance in this new scenario?

We are in the adoption and integration period and so far it is doing well in integration, we have seen a UFC Champions becoming their ambassador, in the future, the sporting industry will acknowledge the contribution of Cryptocurrency and they will co-exist and adapt to each other, to strengthen both communities, both will have advantages on having each other.

The collaborations is really doing well, and with that example about UFC as ambassador it will be noticed by more sports,
the adoptions are growing and it really helps both ends.

The acknowledgement will soon reached more market and it will embrace each other for more progress and developments,

for now those sponsorships and advertisements coming from crypto related casinos are making its way.

3325  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Fully vaccinated individuals now spared of masks in the casinos in Vegas on: July 04, 2021, 03:20:14 PM

You are absolutely right. It is still too little time before we can draw proper conclusions about the effectiveness of vaccines, so wearing a mask in public places is a very important measure to contain the spread of coronavirus. The more people understand this and comply with it, the better for all of us.

For most people who are really concern about their health,

putting those mask and shield still the best practice to lessen the chance of getting infected,

not because you are already vaccinated, still not being proven that you are free or you can't carry this and spread the virus with your love ones,

Still better to continue doing those safety protocols even you are already annoyed using it in your everyday life.
3326  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Fate or lack of control - Gambling on: July 04, 2021, 02:56:36 PM

Even I think most of the gamblers are not responsible because I have seen many people complaining about their losses in gambling.
Many gamblers are not able to control their emotions and end up in huge losses.
While some gamblers play only for fun the others are gambling to make a quick buck.
Lack of control is what makes many gamblers lose money.

If not most for sure we won't see more and more casinos around, it's very likely that there more gamblers who can't control themselves while playing.

Some thinks that they are just having some fun and continue to bring more money to their bankroll exceeding from what should they'll be using for their gambling sessions.

Lack of control which really kills all those those deposited funds from gamblers and continue depositing to casino owner's paychecks!
3327  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Ethereum going to Die? on: July 04, 2021, 02:39:20 PM
Even though at the moment dapps are moving to bsc or trim from eth platform, due to its huge transaction fee, I don't think it will be completely out. I am sure soon the issue of high fees will be resolved. ETH is very attractive to dapps due to its scalability, compatibility and ease of use. So the glory will be back.

Somehow, ETH already lessen the fees and by that move from the team, those who are still planning to build their
new project will consider to use ETH as it's really good fit for every developers.

Aside from that the incoming updates will also brings more investors and traders to buy and hold this asset,
the staking offers might trigger more interest for investors to hold more of this asset.

For sure it won't end and it will continue to succeed, long term investors will buy and keep this coin for retirement investment.
3328  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What goes up must come down on: July 04, 2021, 02:19:42 PM
The nature of cryptocurrency, there's always where the price has to be corrected, it's a natural thing, there's nothing to worry about, just waiting for the right moment to sell it, and so is to buy, definitely and the moment where it's all going down.
in fact, even USD has a different value in each country. well, what I want to say is, cryptocurrencies are very volatile coins. up and down very quickly depending on the needs and circumstances. what goes up, can come back down, and vice versa. However, one thing is certain in this regard, namely that the price of bitcoin is always increasing, and that affects altcoins. So, I thought of holding back depending on the circumstances I was in.

Yes! what you see from the market is a normal cycle, those coins who received good appreciation from the market experienced
increase in value but for sure afterwards it will experienced corrections and the value will begin to fall down.

The best thing to do is always have your position both upwards and downwards those who managed to invest in much earlier
period always gained decent compensations,

while those who are been moved by fomos and fuds are those who lose from this market, be aware that timing is very important,
always set your goals and make sure to review how the market for certain coins move to anticipate and earn from your investment.

SEMI-BUBBLE SETUP

What does this mean?

- Do players will stay there for the rest of the season as a bubble can't be called a bubble if players and people inside will regularly go in and out of the venue.
- Do players allows to go out after each game but need to do regular checking every time they will enter the venue. It will be expensive.

There's no possible bubble area around Ynares for players to check in compare to Clark where the venue and court are within a single area. Outside Ynares, it's a busy city so I don't know how a semi-bubble setup will look like.

What do you think guys?

The very reason why PBA still working things out from the government, If I remember it correctly
Senate president Sotto ask about it, those who already fully vaccinated should no longer required of taking swab test.

Not sure though if that is already been implemented, if does, players can go home after each games and they don't
need to undergo with swab from time to time which is really expensive.

We don't have any idea yet unless PBA provide public announcement in regard to this set up.
3330  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: July 03, 2021, 01:54:46 PM

If that's the script, then let it bet.

It's just hard to predict who will win in game 6, because even if the Hawks are playing at home, what the Bucks did to them in game 5 is still fresh in our mind. What if Lopez will explode again, that would be a plus factor that will increase their chance of winning.

bet on the bucks if you believe they will win, and double them in game 7 if they lose in game 6.

Fans will surely continue betting for the Bucks after that explosions from everyone inside the court not just
Lopez  but the call for Portis and with how Holiday and Middleton take the challenge.

I also looking for more on Tucker defense if he will continue to focus on doing this role instead of helping the team for their offense. He really brings big help for the bucks after they acquire him together with Holiday their arrivals makes them more competitive from both defense and offense.

Betting for them or wait till the live game is ongoing, fans will always support their favorite team.
3331  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Forex Trading is Profitable? on: July 02, 2021, 05:18:45 AM
Way back 2017 trading Forex was very trending by that time, and I am not that mature enough here in cryptocurrency industry even
in Forex trading as well. While in the end I found out that in Forex trading everyone can able to get earn to this methods but the risk is too high, only the expert one can able to do that base on my understanding.
When it comes to risk then I don't believe that Forex is way more riskier than with Cryptocurrencies because if we do really try to compare when it comes to volatility then I would really say that crypto market is way too risky to take but somehow in return it is way more profitable.

Im a forex trader and I do have friends tooo which are trader in forex and eventually transfer in crypto because of that particular reward thing despite of the higher risk.

Even myself had made out the same decision too because in forex you would really be gaining small percentage in a month or year which you can eventually get in crypto within a day
if you are active and good enough.

If you focus and with knowledge and skills from your forex experienced, crypto market can bring more potentials.

Though it's really hard embracing how you lose your money when manipulation take place, but riding with the right assets may give you
decent amount of profits.

Just the same emotions when your forex position didn't materialize and instead of moving to your direction it did against you and your cut loss
got triggered, you need to comes up with much deeper study to anticipate much appropriately!

Gilas Pilipinas eliminated from FIBA Olympic Qualifying Tournament by Dominican Republic

A tough path for Gilas but they already prove that even with a young lineup, they have that power to compete.

I thought the game will be close throughout the game as entering the 3rd quarter, the score is close but the Dominicans showed what really they are.

Congratulations to them and goodluck on their future games.

In our pinoy terms "Minama"  they (Dominican Republic) put so much pressures after first half.
They manage not to give any good space and looks for the Gilas while in their offensive strike they really bring the hypes!

It's okay for now, such appearance from this young rising stars proves that we already improve our basketball skills and talents,
imagine if there's veterans stars playing alongside with this young players.

Someone who can live with the pressures, it's really different if all players are young playing against international teams.
All in all still proud for this selection, See you again guys!
3333  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: July 02, 2021, 04:24:19 AM

And now it's down to 9 points lead, the Hawks has a good run in the last couple of minutes. I think Atlanta is still into this game. Even though the Bucks built a good lead, they  are still fighting even without Trae Young.

The 2nd quarter is almost done, down to 2 minutes, so at least it was not a blow out game. For sure both teams are going to come back strong in the 3rd as this is crucial. If Bucks continue on the momentum and build a solid 10 point cushion, they have a good chance of winning and the point spread are going to be covered by the Bucks.

Hawks managed to cut the lead but Bucks continue to dominate inside, Brook Lopez made his appearance being felt
No Giannis no problem let Lopez make the damage.

Good pick for coach Mike Budenholzer bringing Portis in replace for Giannis as he really contribute well and made he's appearance being notice.

One more game for the Bucks before they'll going to meet Suns in the finals, they need to continue playing aggressive like this.
3334  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is there a pattern when there is a dump like this? on: July 01, 2021, 05:56:11 PM
Hard to say, but based on what I have been observing since I joined the market, there is no pattern. But the market reacts to every news so that's the first thing that you can look at. But the first thing I do is check on crypto related websites and see if there is any that could have affected the market.

If none, then obviously, maybe speculators are cashing out and taking profits and then it will be followed by weak hands selling because they panic when seeing their portfolio going down.
This is what those that follow patterns do not seem to understand, no asset follows patterns perfectly, now if you take a look at the past some patterns may seem to emerge from time to time but this does not mean that the next time there is an important movement in the price we will follow those patterns.

This is why people lose money, they buy or sell thinking the price will go up or down at a particular time based on those patterns and bitcoin instead does nothing or even does the opposite, this means that even if the overall shape of the pattern did in fact appeared in the market it is not going to be the same and you will be unable to obtain profits by following those patters that you observed during the time you observed the market.

Patterns may help you to analyze and anticipate but like what you have said, there's no certainty that it will
happen again or it will follow the same directions, there are lots of investors who lose money following this analysis blindly,

you need to work it out and be willing to adjust, either you do have sets of back up plans if you failed with your first attempts
or you have system that you use monitoring all the potential next movements,

Very important to set your target and deal with good adjustments if in case things didn't materialize accordingly.
3335  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Vegas Casinos to allow Cannabis Lounges. on: July 01, 2021, 05:21:26 PM
With the cannabis lounges on casinos we can see more people enjoy gambling without frustration. When one has consumed cannabis, automatically he/she will feel free and relieved even when they keep on losing. Because, they won't be having the normal mindset. Governments and casino will make good revenue, and there is need of more security on those casinos.

The side with more securities is for real, those gamblers who enjoyed taking cannabis might do something unusual,

adding securities to avoid problems with those people, but it's also true that the chance of gaining more money with those gamblers who played with
uncontrol mindsets and emotions, they feel good as it's a common side effects of the  cannabis.

Even they are losing they keep pushing and some might aggressively trying to bet more!
3336  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you recommend staking? on: July 01, 2021, 04:13:22 PM
I think staking is very good when you still have capital and of course you apply it for long-term investment, because the results of staking will look longer than trading, do staking in a safe place and don't let you lose access to the assets you use for stake.
And there are exchanges that offers staking and this is being chosen by many investors. It's fine on their end but they don't realize that they're not holding the private keys for those coins that they've put into staking into an exchange.
We've got a lot of options if we want to stake our coins. I get the idea that since we're just holding it, it's also better to put it into staking but make sure you hold private keys but for me, it won't matter and I'll choose to hold.

A need of deeper research to entrust your money to the exchange, for sure many are using
Binance due to it's popularity and if you really going to invest not only your money but also your time,

there are good potential that you'll be able to catch up the right project to stake your money, passive income if you pick the right asset to support.

more on taking focusing with what the project is offering and how the development progress and attract the investors.
3337  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: July 01, 2021, 03:54:29 PM
Do you think it's possible the Bucks will win in game 5 even with the Hawks getting back Trae Young in the ling up?

I think the odds will change if Trae Young will announce playing in game 5.
Hawks is a slight underdog now, but they might be the favorite after that announcement.

So for bucks fans, I think it's wise to wait that announcement to get a better odds.

If you mean about chances that the odd will increase if Young will play, and yes its better to wait for that.

I like to see how Bucks will adjust from that last game after that loss they needed to win this game it's very important as they'll going to have
that advantage, and a possible chance to finish this series in game 6.

ML for Bucks @ 1.71 not bad for those who wants to bet much earlier especially those Avid fans..

3338  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What Do You Guys Think About So-Called "Shit-coin" ? on: July 01, 2021, 02:57:03 PM
If usages is for real then the future of such project will sure bring something good both with your investment and the services itself,
it can classify as good project that will gained support in the long run.

You need to keep yourself in-hand with assets that you are planning to use both for investment or for transactions,
same a like with Bitcoin which we already seen those usages that we are enjoying.

In the other side, shit coins mostly are those projects who obviously alluring investors with good promises to gain quick profits..

Whether an altcoin is a shitcoin is purely subjective, so there will be no consensus about the definition and stuff. For Bitcoin maximalist, there is only Bitcoin, and the rest is altcoin/shitcoin, it's pretty much the same. However, for me, I have to try it first. If it works and I have a good experience using the particular coin (to buy goods and services), I won't call it shitcoin.
3339  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: June 30, 2021, 04:16:22 PM
Most of us must have lost that Bucks game versus the Hawks and I think it's not just us but a lot more gamblers out there.
That's like -20 points without Trae but when Giannis fell when it was just a 7 point lead at 3rd quarter I knew the Bucks will be deep on losing it.
Thinking that it's already a blowout  Grin Roll Eyes But everything went well with the Hawks, they prevent losing and managed to tie the series.

Quote
Gotta win this next game. Clippers versus Suns. Clippers homecourt advantage and if they can play well without Zubac slowing them down then it could be a win. (questionable)
Clippers -1.5 Over 214.5 Will put a little bet for an overtime.  Wink Cheers.
Let Batum and Morris to  take care inside and the usual set up of Beverly/Mann, PG and Jackson.
Playing at home they need to start strong and prevent CP3 and Booker to play big.

Clippers fans needs to help bringing the noise at home and do every possible ways to destruct Suns offensive attempts..
3340  Economy / Economics / Re: Can the world be without poverty on: June 30, 2021, 03:56:04 PM
Education is a great factor why poverty is still rising; if people are educated enough, they could get away from poverty.
The problem is, education is privileged; it is not free at all. Lack of resources could potentially make you lose interest in anything.
If only the government could provide free education and support, people could help build a better community.
More opportunities will come for the next generation.

Education influenced the way you think and the way you choose to live, without proper one the chance of continuing the cycle from where you belong is very possible, those who are inside third world country mostly lack of proper education.

Most of them are being force to adopt childhood labor since the family needs them, they don't have time to study.

First, they don't have budget to proceed and most of the time the person itself choose not to continue since they've seen the big needs of their family and nature call to stand as early as it is to help and survive.
