Which also makes it profitable in some way.
How about we call it a combined investment and gambling.

The house will win. No doubt.
So, I think there is always the larger chance for profit than losing when compared with other investments.

If you have the luxury of spending time doing analysis, chart checking and monitoring then go for trading.
But if you don't then just leave it be. 

I am a holder of different coin.
Not much of stress for that. If you have a good job then stay with it.
If you do trade, it will eat some of your time in which you should be resting already.

First, thank you, that is a good way to remember people especially Kobe.
But please....
Don't forget about JJ Redick. 
This is his first miss of the playoffs since he was a rookie.

Damn! That was some achievement. Is he lucky or what? Like a Robert Horry charm.

I doubt that.
It's not just about loans and savings.

Acceptance by the public is also a must.
And then, there is the government and of course, banks will fight bank.
Creating their own, de-fi or maybe just digital cash which they already have with their plastic cards.
Which continues to another things.
Shops acceptance. Yes I am now banked because of De-Fi but how will I use it without shops accepting whatever they will use. i.e. QR code or still plastic cards. 

I took the 3.43 ML. That is enough for me.
Not that I don't like the Trail Blazers.
Will the Grizzlies shock them with a powerful game that will look like a playoffs or a Finals game.
Yeah, I will definitely watch this one.

Oh, I really hope I have huge amount of merits for this one.
After reading the OP all I can think about is to say "stay away from it if you don't like it".
Well, pooya87 already got it covered.

The control of privacy is still on you. You decide, your choice. Why go for an exchange? I bet you have a different purpose.

Oh yeah! I'm on a streak again.
Losing streak!!! 

Blazers against Grizzlies later.
Which are you betting for?
I'll bet for Grizzlies this first game. It's time for revenge from the stolen spot. Odds of winning are for the Blazers which is good. But this might change a lot later.

Could it also mean that Ethereum 2.0 is really near?
Any source so we could read the proof?
I mean, we can't just blindly follow what you said right?
We want a little assurance. Maybe the conversation or a recording of how you talked to them?

If I am to bet with one of them. I'll go Grizzlies.
My instincts tells me (no I am not Spiderman) that Grizzlies is now pumped up.
They want that position back. They need it.
Even if it will be Lakers on the other side of it when they won, playoffs time is still a huge achievement.
Plus, it will be good for additional experience with the Grizzlies team especially Ja.
A rookie in playoffs with a chance to upset the Lakers. One hell of a news.

Goosebumps!
I just remembered the "HODL" hype.
Some may not understand it in this era anymore. Thinking it is just a word that had been slanged or misspelled.
I don't know if this is real but his statements are funny.

"Not HODDLE but HODL."
"Traders as traitors".  

Down the comment section they are fighting on how it should be pronounced! What the heck! Just fucking buy the damn bitcoin!  

I don't  know about the rules but looking at the record it is really unfair for the Suns.
They don't even have the chance to defend themselves there.
Let them have one more game to see who should really have that head to head with the 8th rank. (Blazers)
Make it a game against the Grizzlies so we will all know what team deserves it.

Anyway, the bets must go on. 

I also believe in my instinct but that should not be enough.
Look for a better reason into why you are buying it.

Ethereum had grown rapidly before going to $1000+ in price.
Vitalik even told in social media that it won't happen again but there is so much hype in Ethereum 2.0 which could be the reason for the pump.
Please do better find another meaning of buying it so you won't regret it later on.

Ergh just 3 more points and my streak could have continued.
Again with the upsets. Kings, Orlando, and Grizzlies.

Suns won perfect 8-0 but still, it will be the Trail Blazers against the Grizzlies who will play head to head.
Monty Williams speech is a good morale booster but why I do I felt sadness.
They did great. Should've given a chance for a tiebreaker against the Grizzlies first.

Yeah, and we will feel the shake if he comes back.
Either we go up for another 50-100k satoshis or down.  

He may have stayed calm for now. The beast also needs a rest.
5-7k satoshis is the movement I see for 2 days. He may still be in hibernation.  

Is this also a form of FUD?
Or this is real FUD?  

I mean, I don't really know where you are getting at.
Is it a warning for hacking prevention (sadly, I didn't see anything on how to prevent it), or is it just to scare off some newbies?

The easiest explanation out there.
Thank you Sir.

You picked my wallet but the money is still there.
Bitcoin is still there.

Now that's bad news.
I would not risk this one too.
Actually, something is whispering to me to bet with the Nets once again.
Maybe, I will do it later.

For now, I'd stick with my regular over and under scheme.   I am 50-50 here unlike yesterday.

Edit: Crap! Lakers vs Sacramento suddenly changed to 223.5. Ouch!

Thanks, man!
Difficulty of choosing for teams to bet for sometimes is a lucky charm.
Thankfully, there are other ways to bet.  
Congratulations.

So Grizzlies, Suns and Trail Blazers all need the win.
Will there be an upset that will happen?

Bets later, others are still locked.

Didn't we see this before.
Hypes in the new projects. Iirc in 2016 and 2017 it was the ICOs who had that kind of run and now they seemed to calm down because people consumed a lot of knowledge.

Now this, they are still "virgin" and yet they want to be fucked without marriage.

So it was 2 days ago already.
I haven't checked it lately since I had been busy every day.

What!  
Yeah, that proves I am not updated anymore.
I bet he will be back for his revenge. It will be sweeter if he gets it back in an instant with high amounts. Or not.  

Anyway, I appreciate how you two updates this thread. Thank you. Keep it up!

Whoa! Easy tiger!  
I might, with good numbers in the money line. Yeah! I'll take it.

So games today is not that exciting. All of them are from the secured bracket which means it's like a no bearing game.  
It's difficult to decide where to put bets so I just went for over and under again.



Edit: I'm sorry this may not be a non bearing game but a tactic.
OKC could intentionally lose 2 more games to avoid playing against Houston in the playoffs and instead play against Denver. It's a good match since they can use Adams against Jokic which cannot be done against Houston because of speed.

Record:
43-27 OKC - 2 more games
43-28 Jazz - 1 more game

What is the rule when they tied? Toss coin?
