341  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Wise to Cash Out 3.5 ETH For Debt Payments on: March 12, 2024, 04:38:19 AM
honestly if it could lift the burden off your minds its always worth it i mean if you are cornered and need to pay the debt off your credit card to keep that credit score from tainted then i guess go ahead.
in making decision like this honestly as many have probably stated repeatedly that you shouldn't ask some random people.
you just try to weight the advantage and disadvantage and I think thats the way.
with selling off your ETH I guess there's nothing wrong with it, ethereum already high enough anyway if you find a way of utilizing your hard earned money for betterment of your life I think that make sense.
but just don't regret if turns out ETH is the same as bitcoin surpassing its all time high faster than what many people has projected.
342  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are you still buying altcoins?? on: March 12, 2024, 01:57:56 AM
It seems bulls are busy with Bitcoin only. That's why Bitcoin keep breaking new All time high but most of top altcoins (except a few) Still straggling to cross even Half of their Ath price. So maybe altcoins season might come after btc halving. That's why many people still don't hesitate to collect altcoins. What is your opinion about this matter. Are you still buying anything or will think about it later after halving
buying altcoin is fine if its still far from All time high i think its pretty safe investment to be honest these coins are gonna be catching up eventually.
if you remember, altcoin could literally double or triple or even more of its initial capital easily I think this is the thing with altcoin the sudden pump is crazy i remember render token is pumping so hard when i thought its not gonna increase same thing with JITO its also pumping though not as hard the good trait of altcoin that are fundamentally good they gonna just follow the trend but it sometime just take sometime until they are truly kicking off and then massively sky rocketing in term of price.
if you wanna invest, then go ahead I think you haven't missed the pump yet but definitely don't take it as an advice you can be losing if things goes south personally i prefer buying when its really cheap because i don't want losing for nothing and need to wait again.
so therefore i will not invest these days im enough and contend with current investment of mine no need to accumulate.
343  Economy / Economics / Re: Recession soon? on: March 11, 2024, 03:09:34 PM
certain countries are facing difficult time with economy i think not because we are supposedly going into recession though but because some countries are just lacking innovation since they are industrial country where they produce good lacking in that sector would mean lesser annual income for the country itself I guess.
so far im not really bothered by it though I invested in bitcoin I know bitcoin could grow easily and counter the inflation even go way beyond the inflation doubling my money so instead with the bullrun of bitcoin im getting a really good time right now with my financial condition though arguably my investment is only very few its really helps a lot.
bitcoin going up at the time like this is really such a refreshing gush of wind that really spare many of us from being drowned into recession and getting our purchasing power plummeted because of it.

literally yes, there's a lot of discrimination especially here in our country, no matter how rich you are, if you don't have a diploma to present to other people, they will still say something about you. sometimes even if you have finished your studies but you don't have a good job, they will still judge you. When it comes to the corporate world, you cannot justify your experiences and your knowledge because one of the main requirements they are looking for is a diploma.
these judgemental environment just emit negative energy to be honest, these people should be supportive if im being honest, its tough to live these days so much judgement if we don't achieve something meanwhile life is not all always about who's the best and what not.
discrimination in job though about these education requirement is real, sometime some people are judged not adequate if not having diploma or bachelor degree its really painful for those that literally have no money for education and finding a job just become more harder and harder with even tighter requirements.
fortunately though nowadays there are many online degree that we can get by paying nothing at all, therefore it really helps people that are in true need of education.
345  Economy / Economics / Re: Food security might not be a priority for younger generations. (2) on: March 11, 2024, 02:45:02 PM
*Reposting this topic from my post in other forum.

There is a huge possibility of younger or new generations adopting cryptocurrency investments compared to them getting interests on farming and food related sectors. What do you think? Does it have a good or bad effects on our economy?
I don't think it will effect the economy. The younger generation is not only focused on investments like crypto. There are many young people who are exposed to technology and are dedicated to inventing and developing new technologies and machines. These innovations are aimed at making it simpler and easier for humans to do heavy work, such as farming and any food-related productions.
exactly the younger generation are definitely focusing on developing technology to grow the yield, its not like most people aren't interested in farming but people who are interested in farming nowadays are very committed one they will try to integrate technology into their farming to increase the yield.
such as utilizing drone for fertilizer for their plants and so on there are certainly many way where we can integrate technology into the agriculture and farming in general.
younger generation definitely interested more in the developing technology though since if there's technology invented then it could increase more yield and that means
much more money than previously using rather traditional method.
i've seen in various countries they even use UV light to double productivity of dragon fruit.
346  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: March 10, 2024, 05:36:08 PM
The first half has ended and Manchester City are in the lead by 1-0. This half didn't went very well for Liverpool. Manchester City started really strong and it took Liverpool some time to recover.  Sad  The goal Liverpool conceded was a really simple one by the way. They should have covered the near post much better than that.

Liverpool found some chances actually but couldn't find the target. Salah is needed on the field immediately! He can make the Liverpool attacking line much more active and dangerous. If he doesn't enter the game early I'm afraid the score gap could get bigger.  Sad

Salah in and the score is still draw now. Alvarez needs to be pulled off from the field. There must be someone who can dribbling properly like doku or bob. Manchester city is trying to perform better and finally doku in. The tempo is getting even faster since we are coming closer to the end of game.
Liverpool's subs gave impact to the performance from the club. I think that if draw may become the result from this game. These clubs are equal and there was no significant improvement in the manchester city's tempo. Liverpool was trying even harder

It's clear if there will be no more goal to happen in this match. Liverpool has been trying so hard in winning the game but we are less than 10 minutes before entering the additional time. The performance from liverpool and city are so impressive.
That makes the game was also very entertaining as well. Many bettors may be  losing their bets. Liverpool must be going all in caused by city has not quick counter attack after de bruyne was left from there.

Im sure that draw is a fair result from this match. Many big matches got draw. Diaz got many chances but he was still bottled it. Im counting if diaz got around 7 chances to score.
347  Economy / Economics / Re: Step up your game before the game steps you down. on: March 10, 2024, 03:54:52 AM
Someone said that the life we are living is like a wall clock and everyone have their timing, while waiting for the right time, work on how to make good use of that time when it comes. Planning is the lifeline of every happy home, it is the lifeline of every successful business and also the lifeline of every successful individual. Anybody that doesn't have a plan and that doesn't set their games may end up to fail because they can encounter challenging situation which they were supposed to have prepared for.
couldn't agree more with this and couldn't be more well said, planning is everything someone want to step up their game, even building financial also requires thorough planning otherwise it will be like an empty shell really fragile in their execution and could shatter easily at the very first problem they are facing.
therefore its always good to try get advantageous than anyone else learning skills and something else that at least could make better of our financial situation and then work way harder to achieve what we are targetting.
the people that are committed will definitely see result at the end of their journey.
same thing with investment, try to invest when bearish, don't get swayed even if the price fell even deeper than your expectation and then just wait.
we all know the holders that are committed always win at the end of the day.
348  Economy / Economics / Re: World changing and those who don't adopt this Will stay poor on: March 10, 2024, 02:48:14 AM
Enforcing CBDC will not change the current dynamics of economies in any way because CBDC i pegged to the value of the fiat currency so whatever system exists now in the fiat system will just carry on even if the users are forced to use CBDCs only for all the payments.

NFTs are just jokes and I don't see any potential for them in the future even with the evolution of crypto being the mainstream payment mode so you should analyze your ideology and still with Bitcoin as much as possible to get away with the crooked centralized monetary system.
well to be honest nowaday we almost never seen any kind of NFT that are being priced high just because the owner make it high, i mean most of NFT nowadays are being utilized for identifier or some kind for airdrop distribution, game item ownership and so on not really entirely useless if you ask me it serves its own purpose and the fact that it still exists mean it still has some use.
CBDC in the other hand I believe created because the government is trying to compete with stablecoin they want people of their country to use their own digitally issued currency for the sake of keeping every bits of their economy from leaving their own country I think thats the sole purpose also this might explain why china forbid their citizens from using USDT or any stablecoin outside their own if im not mistaken anyone free to correct me.
definitely not gonna be something revolutionizing its basically just a digital version of their traditional money but adopting a little bit technology of blockchain and thats it I guess.
349  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Please don't liquidated yourself on: March 10, 2024, 02:35:36 AM
thats a basic knowledge but we can agree that people are carving for more that is using high leverage to get the best maxed out result of their trading, they don't think about losing due to being liquidated when they set leverage high many of them just thinking of the multiple fold profit that they could be having.
recent flash dump is a clear indication that those that leverages too high getting liquidated and it amounts to millions, a really bad way to lost money when in bullrun supposedly if they tune down that leverage lower they'd be spared still and right now are back on the track to profit again but too many are so strong willed to be a millionaire overnight.
can't blame them though sometime the profit that we can bring home with such high leverage is simply too attracting for most of us.
350  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season on: March 09, 2024, 01:22:44 PM
I think nobody expect what we see yesterday, damn man, so many unexpected results, Bayern nearby to lose his invictus of the season against Qarabag, Rome demolishing Brighton 4-0, Liverpool destroying Prague 5-1 and ending the key in the first game of the leg.
Anyway, it shows that if zerbi was not as good as what people said. Qarabag played so well at their home, but the next game will probably be owned by Leverkusen since it's an away game for Qarabag. Getting a draw is good enough when you play in your opponent's home. The chance to win the game is getting higher when it comes to your home.
Back to Roma vs. Brighton. I was not even expecting Roma to humiliate Brighton like that. Rossi's club gave Brighton no chance to score a goal. Winning 4 goals aggregate is really positive for the second leg. Brighton's almost impossible to equalize the aggregates.
Im sure brighton will not qualify for the furhter stage. Zerbi totally failed this season, brighton is playing so awfully in all of competitions. Still waiting for the news that linked zerbi to the big club. It's totally a joke.


And for last, Marseille destroying Villarreal 4-0 all no sense.
Amazing performance from Marseille. You would never expect this French club, which is labeled as the farmer league, to destroy Villareal by a huge margin. The second leg is obviously much easier for Marseille to qualify. Im not expecting villareal to win against marseille in el madrigal.
The reason is clear marseille is far above villareal atm. Villareal gets 0 shot on target when it's playing away. Villareal is shit now. There will be no a lot of difference for the second leg.
351  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: TRC20 or BEP20? on: March 09, 2024, 12:54:40 PM
Use Bep20. These days, TRC20 network is more congested and charges more fee than Bep20. I also think the BSC network is faster than TRON network cos I've been using both and I've been getting faster Bep20 transactions.

agreed with this tron nowaday have quite many people that used it even fee in various exchange increasing nowadays it usually charges $2 if im not mistaken meanwhile BSC $1 max for many exchanges, if we are talking about stablecoin of course, but anyway exchange doesn't really care what asset we are moving anyway they'd charge sending native token or stablecoin the same.
so I agreed in this regard BSC is better.
the good thing with BSC that people sweep under the rug is probably that many of its dapps feels really familiar with the one in ethereum maybe thats just me though but I think its a good thing to have.
overall if i have the chance i will always choose BSC over tron any days.
352  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What Alts can make a possible 5x this bull season? on: March 09, 2024, 12:43:08 PM
if i were to make statement before this bull season i'd say plenty, and right now you see yourself so many coins are pumping more than 5x even 10x like RNDR for example its been pumping like crazy, and we haven't talking about the meme coins yet. but overall at the bull season you can be assured that those coin that are good fundamentally will eventually reach their all time high, its just matter of time until it reaches that because we know people are buying everything they see in sight at this bullish season thinking that it might be the next coin that gonna pump personally I think that makes a lot of sense,
but you should be on the lookout of altcoin that haven't experienced massive pump yet because speaking from experience whales always trying to find some coin that haven't reached or at least still far from its all time high, sometime its gonna be the one that pump next.
353  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: March 09, 2024, 11:39:55 AM
Aston Villa - Tottenham is such a tough game to predict as far as I can see.  Sad  Firstly Aston Villa played a Conference League game against Ajax two days ago. However Emery rotated the squad quite much for that game thinking about their Tottenham game ahead. Watkins played for 90 minutes so maybe he might be a little tired now.

Aston Villa beat Tottenham by 2-1 away before if you don't remember. At Tottenham side Richarlison and Pedro Porro's condition is not certain. Tottenham's recent form hasn't been very well honestly and I don't feel like they can win this game. But rather than betting on a side I have bet on both teams to score.  Smiley

Im almost forgetting if there will also be a battle between the number fourth and fifth in EPL. Don't you consider playing at villa park as an advantage owned by aston villa? Tottenham will always be the same, playing aggressively. Honestly, these teams have the same strategy. Villa and totenham are always playing defend and counter.
It seems like Villa will be changing its strategy a little bit for this match. I'm predicting Tottenham will use a defend-counter strategy, and Villa needs only to always be careful because we do know how quick Tottenham's counterattack is.

The odds made me feel so hard to determine the best choice for my bet.


Villa   Draw      Totenham
2.43 4.10 2.60


There will probably be more than 3 goals in this game, but the total over did not give worthy odds for bettors. Picking a winner from those clubs is much more preferable because that's the only worthy choice to bet considering the odds are very big.
Villa is on a positive trend after consistently getting 4 wins and 1 loss in the last five matches.

I do agre with what you said that this match is very hard to predict. Villa probably win this game.
354  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 09, 2024, 11:09:37 AM
OMG, it's ended
1 : 1
draw match
How pity Napoli

It's quite unfortunate to see the results. because the euphoria regarding Napoli's performance so far is still quite good. especially under their new coach. And here, Napoli really have a bigger chance to win. but why? Why?


Napoli this season has looked very bad until it has changed coaches twice. and until now Napoli has fallen behind 7 points potentially so 10 points with the current 4th place Bologna. to get a champion league ticket next season is very difficult even though the opportunity is still there.
need spaleti comeback in napoli coach

The draw against Torino has ruined Napoli's chances of at least qualifying for the europa league even though the gap is not that big but it's so hard to catch it. What is wrong with this club? People began praised Canzola as a replacement for the previous coach, but they are pointing their fingers to him. When their favorite team loses to a mediocre team, football fans often get mad at this behavior, and it's a common thing in football. It is completely unacceptable for the fans to see Napoli miss three points. The gamblers are also baffled result from this game. I believe that Napoli needs to address a number of issues available in the clubs. It's all need to get sorted out asap.

The club performed poorly in this game. The new coach did not appear to bring the amazing results that fans expected.  It missed numerous opportunities, and if Napoli continues to perform this poorly, I am sure it will affect that the prices of osimhen and kvarat to plummet significantly.
It would be prefer Napoli to sell them as soon as possible before they lose value. Bologna may be missing three points against intermilan, but I still doubt it. It's becaus bologna can still beat Intermilan in the last head to head matches. It may be eating napoli's chance to get into the europa league. Roma is now sitting at the fifth place position. 
355  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: March 09, 2024, 02:37:13 AM
Honestly after seeing the speculation that exists now it seems that Osimhen will prefer to go to PSG if next season he leaves Napoli despite the uncompetitive Ligue 1, but Osimhen will of course choose a team that can guarantee the main place in the team, besides that if he joins PSG then at least the wealth he will have will increase,  Playing in the Champions League is certainly a dream of all players included osimhen and isn't PSG more promising to appear in the Champions League every season because they do not have strong rivals in the league compared to EPL teams?
Vector Osimene will prefer to go to PSG for the reason that PSG plays more in the Uefa Champions League competition than Napoli, that is, it has played in the UCL many times and now PSG still has more potential to qualify for the UCL because PSG is in the French league. There is no other team that dominates PSG. And these are the things that I knew that Victor Osimene liked it and he wants to move to PSG for UCL. Napoli's morale has been weak in the UCL competition as compared to PSG. This is true that PSG has more chances of for qualifying but the thing is that even PSG won't be able to win the champion league. They tried to get success in UCL, but all was in vain. This means that PSG can't have competence in UCL it needs to work on the team apart from good and well-struck strikes.

You forgot to mention that Manchester United is also ready to compete with PSG to sign osimhen from Napoli. Several clubs are monitoring his performance in Napoli, but it will not be difficult for an EPL club to grab his release clause. Osimhen was a potential striker, but he was playing the wrong club. Napoli was not able utilizing his true potential. That's the main reason osimhen must leave from there.

I strongly agree with what Onyeka said in this article below.

Quote
Brentford midfielder Frank Onyeka underlined the strong mentality of Napoli star Victor Osimhen and spoke about the idea of seeing him in the Premier League this summer.
source: https://football-italia.net/onyeka-hopes-osimhen-premier-league/

Osimhen is a talented striker who needs to move to a better league to gian more experience. He will be highly motivated in the EPL because he will be competing against some of the world's best strikers, including Haaland. Osimhen has no reason not to attend the EPL league and chose french league as his next destination will be a very wrong decision.
He will receive many benefts from playing in EPL club. Napoli achieved its peak performance last season, and Osimhen should consider this as one of his best destination to continue his career.

PSG appears to be seriously interested in getting him from Napoli, but Osimhen has the power to decide on what club he will continue his career. He won't have a better career opportunity at PSG. Playing in the EPL will provide him with more benefits such as being motivated to become as good as other strikers who break or create new record. If Osimhen plays under a good coach, His potential can be fully utilized.
Clubs can begin to approach him about being their new player.

356  Economy / Economics / Re: Saving don't make wealth on: March 08, 2024, 04:22:16 AM
You are right. You cannot save yourself to wealth and no body has ever done that. If you want to be wealthy, you have to take on risks (investments). You can start off with one thing and eventually diversify so you can grow your knowledge and know more things to invest in. However, it’s okay to save (as long as you’re not hoping you’ll be rich by doing so).

Holding Bitcoin is an  investment. Imagine if you invested when it was cheaper, you’d have own private jets. Cheesy
honestly saving could still allows us to accumulate wealth good enough if our income is good in the first place like basically with salary of $200k definitely viable way to save living frugally could get us to become a millionaire within few years at least thats how it should be from theory.
but i agree though had the money saved also being reinvested even compounding investment on top of that it will become millions in no time we all know investing is a way to grow wealth now accumulate meanwhile saving is just accumulating in literal means, basically doesn't add additional wealth it just accumulate of what we should be having into one place.
meanwhile with investment we all know if we have invested in bitcoin from long ago, we probably already grow our capital to another level.
357  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Take Profits! Its important! on: March 08, 2024, 03:38:21 AM
Take profits simply because it’s everyone’s goal in the market. While hodling also serves a good option, but hey we won’t be hodling for the rest of our lives. At the end of the day, all we need are profits and not those coins who will lose eventually their value in the market.

However, know when to take profits and know when to keep hodling. But as a friendly advice, take time to sell but never sell all your coins. There’s always a lot of bull runs to come, so if you can’t maximize it this year, then prepare for the next year.
though indeed i do agree that we won't be holding for all our lives but i can see the reason why people are really eager to hold as long as they can they want to maximize their profits
frankly speaking there has been many cases where people missing out on some life changing opportunities just because they are trying to take profit too early the profit that they taken are miniscule and alter the market
pumping like crazy and they could've made some big profit but they just don't have the patience its why there's something called diamond hands.
though if im being honest determining the peak is really difficult thing to do because frankly nobody knows when we will be hitting peak.
but i think we can agree that if we reached certain target of our investment its always great to be getting out of the market and wait for another bullrun to accumulate.

world isn't always white and black and linear, its always dynamic and full of shades, same with stuff like luxurious or functional stuff, you can get windows computer as you said at cheaper price indeed, but we all know some people might also wanted something that just works don't wanna tinker around also to increase prestige.
I mean some jobs require you to look professional to do professional thing I mean imagine you brought out that gaming laptop which they say cheap but functional got all the rgbs in this world embedded to the back case of your laptop while you're trying to secure a deal, what the other party would think? is that professional enough?
same with mac from your example, if you're a dev, or at least a video editor, mac can helps a ton, its efficiency for its power currently unmatched.
I mean some people might say that mac is overpriced for no reason but actually there's a reason, thats the build quality and integrated ecosystem with their other product line to be fair.
but yeah, sometime a company can be a rip off too though.
359  Economy / Economics / Re: Insurance is important on: March 07, 2024, 08:24:35 AM
Insurance is very important nowadays. It can play a more important role especially among less developed countries. But nowadays it is seen that due to some unscrupulous people most of the people have great disbelief in this matter. They think it will not bring them any results in future. It is especially prevalent in those who live away from cities. But I think if any insurance is managed by an honest and sincere person and if it benefits people in the future then everyone will start to trust again. So those who are in charge should keep an eye on these things.
insurance are apparently frequently used more in developed country though arguably speaking they have better law that concerns about what the customers should do and what the insurance provider should do, there's a clear line of distinct between what is legal and what is illegal i guess in 3rd world countries it might differ since we know corruption rate is higher there and that also why many are unfaithful against these insurance companies since you know money rule.
but the thing is if at least it could helps us from being cornered into position where we don't have money but we also need to pay emergency bills then I still recommend to get one.
there's nothing wrong with getting one to cover healthcare maybe since it might really helps in the long run.
consequently though it requires proper financial management otherwise it might add burden to the monthly outcome of someone with minimum wages or below.
360  Economy / Economics / Re: No petrol/diesel car sales by 2035/ Reality or dream? on: March 07, 2024, 08:06:35 AM
I have seen diesel companies trying to switch to something more sustainable like biofuel. It is good that we are starting to improve on different ways to protect our environment. I have no doubt that in 10 years, we can achieve something or invent something that could change the way cars work and for the better.

Do I think it can be implemented 100%? Yes, maybe in developed countries but for third world countries, it might be hard to acquire whatever innovation there is to come.

It might take longer for third world countries to catch up and implement the innovation completely across the country. But a step is a step and I am glad we are moving forward still with mother nature in mind.
indeed biofuel is becoming a thing what im afraid though if the biofuel produced from what is considered a food then it might raise the price on food I mean if its coming from rotten palm oil or something like that then its gonna be fine but using
something that is considered food might causes food crisis but hopefully im wrong on this.
but undeniably, more and more commercial vehicles such as bus and other are trying to switch over into using electric vehicle.
what I see is that there's a pattern that if a vehicle is used based on schedule like bus it will be easier to switch over to electric vehicle because we can roughly estimates the time required for charging and at what time it should be scheduled to operate.
usually electric bus right now could sustain to be used for a whole day and be recharged when at night if im not mistaken.
that already good enough considering that we are still in early phase of switching over into something electric these days.
