3361  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Where comes and how exchanges gets the bitcoins that I buy? on: February 13, 2022, 03:16:29 AM
Maybe someone who asks this question should be avoiding getting into crypto right away? I would highly suggest to advice OP to stay away from crypto until he learns more about it. We promote learning how to trade, whereas we are telling a person where money in the trading comes from, in TRADING. With maybe like a year worth of hardcore studying, even OP could become a great trader in crypto, you could start earlier but it takes time to be great.

However, that is not right now, anyone who asks such a simple question should stop everything and start learning how trading works and when to buy and when to sell type of things in very in depth details before they start.

If the team behind coinmarketcap could always review the altcoins that they gonna list it’s gonna be great, I figured out that coinmarketcap frequently listing some shitcoins just because they exists and this could cause lose of investment by many newbies in investing.
I think coinmarketcap is also a company owned by binance, if they could make some review just like exactly binance is doing with the projects that they gonna be carrying out, it could significantly reduce the amount of investment loss because of scams projects.
I really wish that they could make this filtering of scams projects comes true because it could literally save many lives and money.
First of all you have to know that this is not their duty, they have one duty which is just to list all the coins that are available in the market, and not to go round checking whether they are scam or not. These people list a lot of coins in a week, and I don’t think they will have that kind of time to start checking which project is a legit one or the ones that are owned by scammers.

Furthermore, when you want to trade these coins, where you usually go to is exchanges like binance.com, and coinbase.com, or any other exchange in the market, and you don’t go to coinmarketcap.com or coingecko.com to sell these coins.

Maybe if you have said that exchanges should start doing this particular thing, then I would say you are right. Because exchanges, especially the centralized exchanges should be the ones checking whether a project is legit or not, this is not something that should be meant for Coinmarketcap to do.
3363  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Uniswap Token to $50? on: February 12, 2022, 09:43:16 AM
For sure, when there is any update in the token, there is always hype, and the price increases. However, we need to see the overall structure of the crypto market at that time. Sometimes the project updates are released at a time when bitcoin is in bearish mode. In those times, even these events fail to make the coin pump. Therefore we should only invest in coins for an only certain amount and do not allocate the whole portfolio in one coin because of the event.
That is also the times when new projects fail to get picked up and since the early days are very important for most of them, we have to see some good projects die without even starting properly. I mean you can be as great as it gets, the next big name, and if you start at a very bearish period then you will be losing left and right during that period and never make it big.

If you insist and stay around for years, then maybe you can, but it is a hard job. Remember how in 2018 many many projects got destroyed? Mainly from the bear market. That is what new projects are looking at right now, and for the past few months, but during 2021? Most of them got more money than they deserved.
3364  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Future of blockchain gaming on: February 12, 2022, 05:31:12 AM
What do you think about the future of blockchain games? Do you think they will work out? There is difference in playing game for the fun of it and playing games to earn money which is why I think that if Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft don't support blockchain games then it will sucks, consoles have the best games and gamers don't care wasting lots of time on them just for fun.. my point is if these top three gaming companies don't get into blockchain gaming I don't think I will ever be hooked with Play2earn games anyways, what about you?
That is the same feeling that most of us do get. I have tried all these play to earn games on blockchain, but as time goes on it starts to get very boring. That is the case with most of them, they are so boring and they are not high end games like you would see on Microsoft Xbox and Sony PlayStation games.

They are really boring, and most people who will try it out, at some point they will just get tired, and adding up the frustration that comes with all these play to earn games, most will usually give up and look for something else to do. It is usually not easy because it is not fun to play, and at the same time it is also going to frustrate you at some point, so you are definitely going to drop out.
3365  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How do you know when to sell? on: February 12, 2022, 03:56:51 AM
I think it all goes down to what you are really after. If you are someone who is into long term investment, then it would be a different case. And if you are someone who is into short term investment, I think you would have to be relying on making use of charts with the help of technical analysis to be able to predict where the market will be going to within the next few minutes or so.

Because, if you are into short term investments or trading, and you’re not making use of technical analysis, then your success in this type of investment would be quite hard. But for someone who is into long term investment, they can rely on news and fundamental analysis. technical analysis as well can be helpful. They can also decide to make their decisions based on the past history of the coin that they have invested in.
3366  Economy / Economics / Re: Just my own thoughts on: February 11, 2022, 10:59:53 AM
Bitcoin is fully decentralized which is why I think it doesn't have to compete with Fiat at all, those who needs the decentralized idea should just keep using BTC as it is, we all know that CBDC will run on the blockchain too but in centralised form so where thus this leave Bitcoin?
Like you have said, both are different, those who wishes to make use of a decentralized currency would continue making use of Bitcoin, and those who likes Fiat or feels like making use of the central bank’s digital currency would go for what it offers them.

Between CBDC and Bitcoin, I would say that the central bank digital currency even has a lesser chance of survival than Bitcoin. Bitcoin would continue no matter what, but all these digital currencies that are being released by central banks might not be heading to anywhere at all, because so far most of them that I have seen  are not really a success. So, they are not a threat to Bitcoin at all.

The match between Southampton and Tottenham is now being held. I look forward to Tottenham's victory in this match. I bet today for their victory. If Son and Kane can play well, it will not be difficult for Tottenham to win. Tottenham will be able to score at least 2 goals today and they will win the match 2-1.
I was also expecting some good game between these two clubs Southampton is currently in bad shape but still a very difficult team to beat start was not good for visitors as they concede an own goal by Bednarek, but good thing happened and after few minutes Broja also done a goal for them and now after 30 minutes match is at score of 1 - 1 hopefully we will have some good number of goals in this match.

In another match Norwich done very good job and have very early lead against Crystal Palace which is going to be very interesting because few weeks back they were at bottom, but recent two wins from two matches give them some better encouragement so now today they are again in lead, and they can do this 3 out of 3 which could be very good for them if they were able to win surely they are going out of relegation zone for some time.

Red Bull Racing have announced that they are going to reveal the RB18 today at 5 pm CET. It is really exciting to witness the teams launching their new cars one by one these days. And the ones that I have been curious about the most are Ferrari, Mercedes and Red Bull's cars. There is still some time to see Ferrari and Mercedes' cars now. Ferrari are going to reveal it on February 17 and Mercedes are going to do it one day after them. We are getting close to the new season quickly now and the excitement level is rising.
It does look great. I thought it would be a bit more light colours, but they have seemed to pick a darker colour of their product. We all need to remember that these companies are investing into these cars because their main thing is sponsorship.

You do not have to make money or profit from it, companies will end up paying for the difference and Red Bull is not different from others. Which means that how it looks changes so much. I actually did purchase red bull a few times literally because I saw it so much on TV when I was watching. Not like some sort of "support" because they are billion dollars worth companies and do not need me but I said red bull too much in a season and sometimes it just makes you want to drink some.
3370  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which altcoin to buy? on: February 09, 2022, 10:19:44 AM
Although projects like neo and eos received huge investments, they could not develop themselves at all, yes you are right, they were very uninspired, I don't think they will be very active in this rising season. Web 3 seems to continue to be an emerging trend, but also the need for me, the need will be an inevitable occurrence in it. I am impatiently following the evolutions of these defi,nft, metaverse technologies you mentioned.
I do not believe that their problem was that they were not good enough, it was that they did not catch up with the times. Right now the crypto world is so beyond them but they were the biggest names for a while. EOS for example got rated highest and best in blockchain for a while, early when they actually did something, so it is not that they are bad, they were never bad. The problem is we have so many new projects which are much better and EOS never improved itself.

This is the key to most projects fall, if you do not improve with the times then you are not going to be at a high level, only bitcoin could stay the same and still be ranked higher and even bitcoin is improving their blockchain to make it as cheap as possible, still not cheap but at least it is trying. This is why NEO and EOS could still get super popular only if they improved, but as it seems, they won't.
3371  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin thief on Bitfinex exchange caught? on: February 09, 2022, 09:24:47 AM
I am not in favor of the couple's activities here, but keys storing online? You are right, that's not a very safe way to store private keys. They should know better. Because if the agents haven't found those keys and they will make a stand that they lost the keys (but will get it once they are out of prison - just giving one scenario), they can still be rich after their sentence. But anyway, on the thought that FBI got a hold of multi-billion dollar heist is great! I don't know if Bitfinex already refunded their customers but if not, they have hope now to get it back.
Let’s just hope that the FBI would be returning the coins to the rightful owners and not keep it. Then As for the case of storing keys online, well they have been storing it online for so many years now, five years like the op has said? And no one has had access to it, except that the FBI took permission from court to be able to access their online Accounts and recover the private keys. If it wasn’t like that, then those keys would have been there and no one would have known about it.

Even if you decide to store your keys offline, there are still some risks that can be involved, you can even lose the paper where it is written or something might happened to the storage where you have stored it. So there isn’t really 100% safe option, it’s all about you knowing how to handle whatever option you take .
3372  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Getting Used to The Market Situation is The Key to Becoming a Reliable Trader. on: February 09, 2022, 05:42:19 AM
What you have said is true if you are going to be a good or reliable trader you should know what the market situation and you are aware of what is going on since with that situation you are going to make a strategy and if you are not aware with it or you don't know what's going on in the market I think you can't be a good trader. So yes understanding and having experience to different market situation is one of the key to become a good trader.
It is an easy thing to say but a hard thing to do. Being a reliable trader who knows how to act in what type of markets have been a difficult thing. I know that most people have some sort of strategy that they follow, and that is why they are not really doing a proper job but at the end of the day if you have a strategy and you are sure that it would work even a bigger risk is to get out of your strategy.

Finding a new one would be fine, that is not a problem, we could always have a new one and we could always use that but we need to make sure that we follow it, because if we do not follow our strategy and not just change it, but just not follow it and do some silly reactionary thing then we would lose all of our money.
3373  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: February 09, 2022, 02:49:47 AM
Finally, we have seen a move from Dortmund for their defense. They have officially signed Niklas Süle and it is a free transfer which is another great news for them. As Bayern Munich didn't extend his contract, he had six months left on his contract and was open to contract offers from other teams. Dortmund were the fastest club to do so. They have signed a 4-year deal with him. Süle was speculated to join some other teams in different leagues too but he is staying in the Bundesliga.
https://www.transfermarkt.com/done-deal-sule-joins-borussia-dortmund-8th-transfer-from-bayern-munich-to-bvb/view/news/399840
This is a good decision for Dortmund. They needed experienced defenders. They are behind Bayern Munich in the title fight only because of their weak defense. They may have scored a lot of goals, but they have conceded a lot of goals due to weak defense. They have conceded 36 goals in 21 matches. But now it remains to be seen how Niklas Süle will perform with the Dortmund team. Hopefully he will be able to adapt to the team very quickly.
Honestly? Haaland scores so much, other amazing offensive players scores so much and at the same game Dortmund defence gets scored all the time. I have seen it too many times, it has been a thing for a while now and not just this season neither. Like last season they still lost a lot of games or got a draw just because their defence sucked big time. I have to guess that there is a good case to be made about how they could get some defensive midfielders or even more athletic backs so they could go up and come back.

But, no matter what they decide, the defence is the number one priority for them. If they just agreed to sell Haaland, even if for 200 million which I am sure someone would pay, then they could use that to buy 4 AMAZING players, 50 million each, get 1-2 defenders and another striker and anything else you want, the solution is so obvious.
3374  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: February 09, 2022, 02:29:47 AM
It was a great joy to watch PSG against Lille. This result was more than I expected from PSG. Lille were not even close to their look in the previous season maybe but I still didn't expect them to get a this much embarrassing result. They really don't seem like the last champions in the league. I get that this kind of teams don't have the chance to get even close to the championship very often. But they could have still done better than this. And PSG are continuing to literally own the league.
I think that PSG getting that win was obviously important but Messi getting along with Mbappe and both of them scoring was a bigger impact deal. With this game, maybe they will get to play a lot better together? I mean the league is easy, they will win the title without a doubt and it is not even a thing anymore, there are bookies paying that out already, and have been for a few weeks. The deal is that, they really need an UCL, if not then this team will have a hard time, plays may leave, Messi getting older, you can't really just hope for the best with the old team they will be left with. I hope that they can get what they want or if not then at the very least keep it steady to try it again next year.
3375  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Time to reinvest into Altcoins? on: February 08, 2022, 04:55:28 AM
The market continues to grow and this is a positive sign that a bull run is imminent, reinvesting again is the right decision, and this makes me happy because many of my assets have returned to normal, I hope April can skyrocket again like 2021 so we have to hurry buy from now.
Yeah it is and I hope that a green candle all over will continue and finally cryptocurrencies like altcoins recovered finally from a recent market price correction. This time is a good sign that would going to give a positive hope to every altcoin hodlers who used to invest in altcoins and yes definitely this is also a good time to reinvest. But of course, still be careful which one would you like to reinvest and still perform your own research about it.
If the green candle hits all of it at the same time, then we are in a good luck and that period is usually called a bull run and being in a bull run is a blissful feeling. I can't say if it will be like that right now, but I can say that it is looking like there is a good chance we could have that sometime soon. I just hope that people who see it going up wouldn't end up selling and taking their profits out.

There have been a lot of people who sold as soon as they saw profits before, and same type of people may end up doing it again. There is no guarantee if we will go to 50k or if we will go back to 30k levels, which makes this period a bit more scary for most people.
3376  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: February 07, 2022, 07:43:20 PM
This is what happens when you are not smart. Gavi should be one of the players Barcelona should be building their future around, yet they cannot pay him because they bring an overpriced old striker as a panic signing on the last day of the transfer window.

I feel Gavi will extend but the point remains the same. Barcelona is in all these problems because they weren't careful with money and they still didn't learn anything from it.
Wouldn't it be much more advantageous for Gavi to remain in barcelona until his name and reputation were higher so that his marked value would also be higher or would leaving barcelona be more advantageous for him at that moment?
Not like he would be going to 15th league team type of deal, this dude is a good player and he could leave for a good club, or even maybe a better club. Since Pep loves graduates of La Masia, he would be able to offer some decent amount as well, even if he was a bench player getting paid more, he could show himself during some league games and cup games and being subbed in the game in some games all comes down to actually playing 20+ games a season, and in EPL as well.

So, I would say that it is possible for him to leave, but Barcelona probably just needs time from him, like offer him a great contract 2 years later, like the type of amount he doesn't even deserve yet, but pay him max they can for now. All those super old players getting money is the real problem for Barcelona, Busquets making 22 million a year? Pique making 10?

These do not make sense, send them off and you gain 30+ million dollars, pay that to fati+gavi+pedro and you have 3 players who could make a chance for the club AND you will have some money left which you can use for another young player.

you have summed it correctly because it seems that users are not appreciating the freebies given by Stake, and if they want VIP benefits simply wager like those high rollers do, because I don’t really expect Stake to change their model to satisfy few user’s.
The VIP's getting more attention is not really something unique for stake neither. All casinos in the world would do something like that. If a person who wagered over a million dollars in a single month comes out and says that they are facing a problem, you wouldn't care about the guy who lost 105 bucks in gambling, you would ignore that for a second and take care of the rich one first. That is how business' stay afloat.

I would love to see a world where we all have enough help and nobody gets priority help compared to other people. However, we do not live in that world and it is normal for some people to get the attention of a company more than the other people.
3378  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Africa Football Discussion Thread || Current discussion: AFCON - Finals. on: February 06, 2022, 04:35:46 PM
Later today Senegal will face Egypt in the Afcon final. I think this is the second AFCON final for both Sadio Mane & Mohamed Salah. And both of them would want to go home with the trophy tonight. The Senegal team is solid than that of Egypt, but let’s see what happens, football is full of surprises. I will love for Senegal to win the trophy but it's unfortunate that's not going to happen because it looks like destiny has already decided the outcome. Imagine they have already eaten a lion, elephant and an eagle. Whom are they to fear? You can't knock out African great like Morocco, Ivory coast and Cameroon and go home without the trophy. Egypt will win the trophy.
I believe that Senegal has a better chance if you ask me. Not because Egypt is bad, obviously we all know how great they are, these both teams are in the finals so it is obvious that they are all great, but that doesn't change the fact that Senegal is usually tbe better team.

Mane is a great player and we all know about him and Salah, so it is going to be basically just a showcase of which African player of Liverpool is the better one Cheesy All jokes aside just because one team wins doesn't mean that that player will be better compared of the two Cheesy. So, this is going to be actually fun to watch, we have very time left, lets see what happens.
3379  Economy / Economics / Re: PEOPLE DURING THE PANDEMIC. on: February 06, 2022, 01:33:56 PM
We can invest in crypto if we have extra money, if our income is only enough to buy daily needs, investing in crypto is not the best solution we can do in a pandemic situation. What must be done first is that we must work hard to find additional income that can increase our income.
If we diligently look for information on the internet, there are actually quite a lot of jobs that we can do to increase our income. After our income increases, we can invest in crypto, that's what we should do. I believe as long as we work hard, the results we get will not disappoint.
Especially in a pandemic situation, the efforts we make must be harder, don't give up if we encounter difficulties. Because people who never give up are one of the characteristics of successful people, so do your best, success will follow and all problems can be solved.
The difference between you, me and the others here versus the really wealthy people that they let their money work for them instead of working themselves and that is how they become rich. The moment you do not have to go to work and you have assets that brings you money, and that is how you start to live, then you will be doing fine.

Do you really think that wealthy people go to work every single day? They do not, they end up working either in bigger and bigger business ideas to get even richer, or they just end up not working at all and having fun after a while. This is why investing into crypto and living with it is totally possible, only if you are rich.

If I invest 100 million dollars into crypto and spread it into 30-40 different big names, but most of it going to bitcoin, and create some type of passive income from them, then I would be gladly living easily. This means we just do not have enough money to do it.
3380  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: February 05, 2022, 09:20:15 PM
Today's match between Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig looks very promising. Of course, as in every Bundesliga game, Bayern is the clear favorite. The visitors had a poor start to the season and were positioned much lower in the table than expected. In recent matches, however, they showed an improvement in form. I hope that they will take some points away from Bayern today, because it will make the fight for the Bundesliga championship more interesting.
All is possible today even Bayern Munich are the favorite in this game against Leipzig and that they normaly should be win this match.
But its always hard to play against Leipzig and if they have a good day they can win also about Bayern.
Will place my bet on this match for a win for Munich this time , but hope im wrong and Munich will lose  Kiss
The break took so long that people are unsure about whats going to happen. That is the situation, yes we have seen Bayern dominating the league for years now, and hat is why we should not really doubt them in any game at all, yes they lose rarely and they have draws rarely but that happens as well. So, when you combine a huge break plus a rare chance of not winning becomes something to doubt.

Nobody really thinks they will surely lose, right? We just have "doubts" about them winning so easily. Maybe they will beat Leipzig 5-0, or maybe they will lose to them, we really do not know how players will come back from this break and how they will be like, if they are marvellous then they will be doing fine, if they are not great and they have some match shape issues then they may end up being a bit worse, it all depends on the form of the players.
