3401  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Investors desire on meme coins are insane on: November 01, 2021, 11:51:55 PM
This is probably what many don't want to hear right now but I'm just trying to share what I've achieved so far since the last three months, I'm made more money from meme coins than every other bigger coins I have in my portfolio, not even BTC and ETH where able to give me that much insane profits in a short term, since I've been here on this forum I've never seen my portfolio surging high like this, meme coins are dangerous but their rewards are insane

Not a financial advice, what have your own experience been like with meme coins?
I couldn't just put the blame and never think that they are wrong as I strongly believe that they have thought it many times before placing a buy order. Maybe some are invested the wrong coins but some did it right, and looks, some are getting rich for a short period of time due to the price surge. If they got it at a cheaper price, they'll talk you back that you are wrong and they are right.

It is a matter of choice because even choosing Bitcoin can't just say that they will gain profit as it possible they even mismanage it and sell them during the market crash. It can be just insane if we do nothing but I guess not, and we have the reason of choosing meme coins over the others.
3402  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: November 01, 2021, 09:28:55 AM
People really going nuts for lamarcus aldridge right now.  He's having a great season so far and just joined the 20K point club.  A great comeback after retiring due to an irregular heartbeat scare last year.  I'm seeing people saying if he wouldn't have retired then the Nets would have won last year, and I think that's a valid argument considering they were a 1/2 a Durant shoe size away from likely taking it home without him.  Maybe in the playoffs he'll be able to step up and fill the hole left by no dominant true center on the roster...  We'll see...

He's actually one of the more actively and consistent contributors on the Nets which is a big surprise... Kudos to him.

I would have thought honestly that his game was outdated and a bit slow but he actually looks a lot more agile than on the Spurs.

The year off must have been good for him physically and mentally. And honestly, he's healthy which is the most important thing above all else.

I have to admit, I'm one of the fans who underestimated Aldridge, I was thinking that he'll be limited and his production would go down, but no, I was wrong, look at him now, it's like we are seeing an old Aldridge that dominates, and his shooting percentage is almost perfect.

In their game against the Pistons, he made 16 points but from a 7 of 8 shooting, how consistent is that?
I still remember when Aldridge and Roy are the top players back when they are still in Portland. Its just sad that Roy retired very early that time.

Now he proving that he can still help the team as long as he will be given enough minutes. He played 21 minutes with 16 points. His perimeter shooting + his ability to handle ball are still there like he is playing on his prime. He isn't as quick as he is years ago and its understandable but his perimeter shooting is his bread and butter. I hope that he will be healthy all through out the season because he will be a big help to the Nets both offensively and defensively.

Yeah, lest we forget, him and Dame after Roy left. I think he can still very productive and we can see glimpse of him during his prime years at Portland and even San Antonio. But I'm not going sure if he will be consistently there, maybe there will be games that he will score more like in the Pistons games. And then games that he need to sit out and let Blake do his thing or Durant. But my point is that he can still contribute when needed.

LA's best seasons are with the Trail Blazers, unfortunately, they never reach the NBA Finals so the team was dismantled and it's Dame who is now their leader and with the same result, the team still struggles in the playoffs. I'm not sure but I think the old Blazers (with ROY and LA) are better than the current roster.
3403  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING] Jonas Sultan vs Carlos Caraballo - October 30, 2021 on: November 01, 2021, 09:02:14 AM
And Jonas Sultan reminds me of Pacquiao, I mean in the way he was also plummeted by Caraballo. And it's amazing that he can take all that punches and didn't go down hard. Well, he was battle tested against Casimero and won against him so that enough said how durable Sultan is and it proved in this game. Durable chin against a knock out artist who has weak chin. Caraballo might bounce back, but if he ever faces another touch fighter then probably he will lost by knock out here.

He is really strong, Carballo is a power puncher and all his previous wins are in KO, that record is scary already but Sultan was able to deliver, giving him a tougher competition that he has not tasted before. It's his first loss and it's good if he will learn from his mistakes and develop his weakness.

There's no room in boxing if you have a weak chin, you'll never be a champ.

Sultan reminds me of Porter,
3404  Economy / Speculation / Re: How far can bitcoin price correction go? on: October 31, 2021, 11:36:01 PM
We can all notice the ongoing price correction of Bitcoin and the fact that price does not continue in a straight line. What do you think Bitcoin's Price could be corrected to? I mean, what do you think would be the minimum price Bitcoin gets to, before going back to $52k price again?
I doubt that we would ever go to a level where we reach under 50k. Even on the worst cases right now, I do not see us go under 50k, there is a very good support there and it will probably hold off any falls. Obviously this is crypto, we have seen from 64k to under 30k in a month just recently during May-June period and that means it is not impossible for us to go down even more. However just because something happened once doesn't mean that it will happen again.

I hope that we end up with something that is decent and I hope that we will not have to worry about what the bottom could be in worst cases. We could see 70k as much as we could see 50k, and that version is something I rather see.
With price correction that is inevitable, I think reaching below $50k is still possible once the market hits another deep crash that will create significant dump in the market. However, with the big institutions that have backed up right now,there are more chances of reaching another heights than seeing it falling its price. Indeed, $70k is very possible before this year ends and same $100k in the next year.
It-dumps and it rises back strong as it was shown in the previous hypes. Nothing to expect like this but that seems impossible as we are testing the market several times with the same trend. And as the market making it slow recovery at this time, we can be hopeful at it reaches back above $60k which is possible to make another new ATH record this year.

$70k is quite possible but I don't agree with some people saying $100k, that might it happen possibly next year.
3405  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which altcoins have the potential for growth? on: October 31, 2021, 10:44:39 PM
By and large, every altcoin created has potential, the only question is whether he will be able to realize it or not. I remember how on forever blast I read about SHIBA INU and Squid Game Token and thought it was total nonsense. But as you can see, they are growing every day. I already started thinking about buying FEB token, maybe I'll be lucky to own token which has 1000% growth potential
This will be a good example that we can't speculate right about the project and in fact, the majority had thought that they are worthless. Well, I don't know but this huge pump is literally a form of hypes and I don't think they could be able to sustain once this is done and to see the real value of these projects.

Yes, we have so many crypto projects that exist but not all of them have the use-case that could carry them to a better future which is a thing we should have to look for as they have the potential gain. While these coins that prompted because of hypes, they soon reveal the truth and only valuable projects remain standing.
3406  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What's your strategy to carry on making money when Bitcoin turns bearish on: October 29, 2021, 07:59:01 PM
Hi, I'm just trying to plan ahead here and assuming that we are going to have a bear market at some point in the next couple of years, I would like to try to put my bull market profits to good use. I was wondering what is your strategy to continue making money when things turn bearish?

Whether it's shorting, leveraging, trading, earning interest, finding hidden gems, longing coins that perform well in a bear market, investing in gold or the stock market or anything else, I'm interested to hear what strategies you are planning to use and how you are planning to execute them in order to continue making money. If you made money during the last bear market I would be interested to hear how you did that as well.

Thanks.
To hold and stake my coins in reputable exchanges is the 1st option I'd plan and the next will be selling and investing the money outside crypto or having my own business, and 3rd one is to buy more. Trading is very challenging in the time of the bearish season, so this option is somewhat beating us especially when we are not totally good at this.

That you are right, it is a need to plan ahead of time and anticipate the market for what is possible it comes. For staying in the market for many years, although we can't say that history repeats itself, we will still be experiencing such scenarios. And much better to be prepared for those things as the execution went so smooth.
3407  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Slovenia getting ready to tax crypto. Will others follow? on: October 29, 2021, 02:25:51 PM
The government had imposed taxes on these legit exchanges and the way to cover up those taxes they pay for them, that they have to ask for a share from their clients/users and traders. That is why we should have not wondered why these exchanges will ask for huge fees or commissions when having used them. I think some people don't feel it as it seems to be normal but I think this is what really happens and we as users had suffered most than these exchanges.
3408  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING] Logan Paul vs Mike Tyson on: October 29, 2021, 10:53:24 AM
If this was a real fight, then I'm sure that Paul's task would have been just to run the first 5 (for reliability) rounds without giving Tyson an opportunity to approach at attack distance. Even in his best years, 90% of Tyson's knockout wins came in the first rounds, now he is 55 and I doubt that his physical form will allow him to compete with a young (albeit much less skilled) opponent in the late stages of the fight.
If this one is indeed a real fight then even Paul would be running around like chicken and if Tyson is still on that old age or the current one if he intends to be a serious one then i dont think for it to be that simple for Paul to ran away around.Stamina is indeed a big factor or might a big problem but still pretty sure that Tyson does have it on early rounds.

You could really still feel off those possible solid punches that he do still have despite of being an aged or old person.

I can't say anything definite about Tyson's athletic form (after all, he is 55 years old), but in my opinion Paul, having an advantage in height, choosing the chicken tactics will feel quite comfortable  Grin If he is careful enough, he can wait for the moment when Tyson gets tired and is not dangerous.

Since Mike Tyson is old, I think the fight will not be in a 12 rounds format, maybe 6 rounds at max to make it fair. Therefore, if that's the rule, Logan Paul cannot wait until Mike gets tired as he can surely fight in 6 rounds and will not be tired if he doesn't receive punches from his opponent.

But the audience is unlikely to be happy with such a show, so most likely we will see a different scenario.
This is another thing, it's an exhibition fight and they have to ensure it's entertaining.
3409  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: October 29, 2021, 09:45:50 AM
We can start putting our bet now, the early we bet the better as TNT had the momentum and they'll make sure to finish the series tomorrow.

The early spread is TNT kaTropa at -3.5, I'll take it as Magnolia has no answer on Williams.
https://sportsbet.io/sports/basketball/philippines/pba-philippine-cup/matches
Take it. Base on the wins of both teams, the wins of TNT are by double digits while on the 1 win on MAG it only a single digit so getting a -3.5 spread for TNT is almost a sure win if they will win today and finish the series.
Kinda risky still since many are still expecting for MAG to at least extend the series to 6 games. There are 3 things that they need to do in order for them to win.
1. Stop Mikey Williams or at least lessen his points.
2. Defend the three point area.
3. Lessen the turnovers.

As for me, I think too that TNT will finish this series today but still nothing is certain until the final buzzer sounds Smiley. Good luck for those who will bet on TNT.

The game starts at 6:00 PM Philippine time, make sure you already put your bet so you will not miss the excitement.

No movement of the handicap now, for Magnolia, you can take them at +4 and you'll still get good odds, however, with how they play, I don't think it's still right to trust them to cover the spread or win the game tonight.
3410  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: October 29, 2021, 09:15:17 AM
Betting on the last game tonight

GSW is still perfect as of now but I like the Memphis to play harder here to give them their first lose.
They came form a blowout loss against the Blazers but I would close my eyes on that one and still believe they'll bounce back for a win.

My pick : Memphis + and ML.
btw, my streak is over.

Looks like Memphis has a problem here.

First-quarter is over and GSW is already with 17 points lead, I'm not sure if they'll be able to come back anymore as GSW is having a great game and they have not experienced a loss in this season yet. But anyway, good luck, and may your pick will cover, but Memphis to win, that's 10% to 20% chance for now.

Memphis won already, it the game went into OT, I have Memphis at ML as well @3.00 so it's a good win for us. Ja Morant has 30 points in this game, Steph has 36 points and as the preview of game, it will be a scoring game between the two and that is the story.

It seems this is the story right now in the NBA, teams having huge lead and then for some strange reasons they can't hold on it, just like in the Lakers lost to OKC. Sixers also lost this game that way too. They are leading 3/4 of the game then suddenly Pistons went alive and hit three to bring down the lead to 5 points.

That was another turnaround, you can never tell the game is over until it's over, Though GSW build a big lead at the very start Memphis being a tough competitor were able to come back and win the game. They had a playoffs history and they beat the GSW.

Solona will become 4st crypto in 1 week this is my prediction.
You wll see I am right it will go above  cardano and thether marketcap you see how good my predictions are.
For one week?
I might be on your side if you are one of those whales who really have the influence to move a project to skyrocket. But because of not knowing you, that seems impossible. I'm not going to think this but it looks like you're just making fun. Honestly, although Solana has that potential to be one of the promising coins that won't make it a shorter time to recognize, yes, it takes not just days, weeks, or even months, maybe next year's rally we could see Solana is one of the top 10 coins in the market.
3412  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Help me understand BTC pricing on: October 28, 2021, 10:41:03 PM
If everyone is buying at a high price, since the supply is constant it is pretty obvious that the price will also increase. And this is happening now in real life. The more adoption has to come, the more we expect that the price of Bitcoin (as an example) will literally be moving high as well.

That is the law of demand and supply, it was not hard to understand it because we can also compare it to many things like in our local market. But as we can see, the price fluctuation has still able to experience because not all the time people are consistently buying, many were still selling and this is why it has become volatile and we can't control this thing.
3413  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Traders always learn to leave when the ovation is loudest on: October 28, 2021, 10:08:15 PM

In relation ton trading too , when you are at the top of your profit and you are not sure or certain of the next market spike or movement, instead you waiting for take profit you can exit the market and go with happiness with what you made already before price crash because most times when ovaction is laudest, some audience might start "criticizing and you get a wipe"  Grin
If you were are a smart trader, you will probably be making some breaks. Trading is not all about risk-taking, we should also have to think that there is a time the market will dump and before it happens, we have to anticipate it. We should have to control our greediness because it was usual behavior that most people are getting not contented and not know the word enough. This is the reason why many traders just fail because of aiming too high and then, they blame the market for their fault.
3414  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: October 28, 2021, 06:26:19 AM
^ The most embarrassing quadruple double of all. This is why some people question his ability as a point guard. Up by as many as 26 points and still losing the game with those stats, this is probably the most embarrassing loss in his career. At least he's part of another history now Grin

I agree, what a way to make a quadruple double, LOL.

It is such an embarrassing moment that I think it will stick on Westbrook for a while this season.

And damn up by a close to 30 points at one point and then suddenly lost everything. I guess everyone  knows that it's a recipe for a disaster having a lot of superstars in one team and the coach can't figure it out whose going to stay in the game and who's going out.

They will learn from their mistakes, that's a classic Westbrook style but you can't blame him for the loss, it's the entire team and the coaching staff who should be blamed. What's important is that Westbrook had already found the offense of the Lakers and he is producing his extraordinary numbers for the team. As the season goes on, they will continue to make an adjustment until they can fully polish everything and they'll work as a team.
3415  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: October 28, 2021, 05:20:43 AM

I'm expecting a close game on Game 4 but it turned out not. TNT is really too much to handle. Magnolia should at least give TNT a hard way to the championship. The way they played, they are already out of the will to win. Advanced congratulations to the comeback of Coach Chot Reyes in the PBA.

It's now turned to the championship of TNT Katropa at this conference. I don't see them losing 3 in a row.

It turns out coach Chot is the solution to their problem, now they are close to winning a championship and if it's still handled by another coach, they might not be this dominant. I think Coach Chot has sent a statement that he is here to stay and I'm sure TNT will not let him go anymore.

They make this scamming as their profession and continue this daily as we do our normal job in real life for our livelihood. So they never get tired. I got such mail and i always ignore it cause pancakeswap doesn’t know ny mail. Lol. But not Only mail but also they sent fake token on your wallet! Thats valueless on bsc blockchain but it show value on pancakeswap! They ask bnb to as fee, for add those dollars on Your balance! And some people do that, lol. Should be careful
Apparently, this has been their source of living. As these people grow and know how to scam, they'll keep scamming. It is a big shame for them but I don't know if they still feel that thing or are paranoid about it.

Scamming is the easiest way to collect money from no-how people, from greedy people. As this strategy still working, we can't stop scamming and scammers will continue their doings until they got caught by the authorities. That is why we should have to protect our wallets and don't let these people will control our keys.
3417  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: We enter a new era of heavy regulations on: October 27, 2021, 10:26:37 PM
these are already happening around the world many exchanges currently disabling accounts and few are temporarily banned or sending emails about withdraw your funds or complete your KYC as I already have this issue and my few accounts under temporarily banned situation because they have very strict policy now.

Even Binance is also going very stick with this all in near future we will not able to have any safe heaven for our adventure in this crypto world because day by day regulations are coming for many companies, and they have no choice just accept and banned peoples those don't like this KYC.
In every situation people always find a way out. I don’t know for sure if there’s going to be a time when regulation is going to be too heavy to the extent that people won’t be able to maintain their privacy through making use of cryptocurrency. But, if that should happen in the future, I think there will still be people who would continue making use of peer to peer methods, and there are also decentralized exchanges these days, and there are so many of them that we can find this time around in the cryptocurrency community.

So, maybe when that kind of time comes, this platforms are going to be of help to us. But if not possible, then we'll have to follow whatever the government says we should do, Since we have no other option.
I guess we should have to follow the rules and regulations that they implemented or else, we do against them and the chance is they will seize our crypto, that seems the worst thing to happen. It was expected to have this scenario and in fact, this has been a plan by the government to take control of the use of crypto and make it legalized. However, it takes so many years before it becomes official and that it comes, we have to do nothing but to abide the rules. That seems no problem anyway if they are just fair to all of us.

Well, I don't blame their innocent as they are still learning and experiencing how to be disappointed.

I personally have not been participating that much in it because a couple of it I tried was scam or they will end up not giving me. But I noticed some of them are real and people benefit from them.
Yeah, 0/10 or 1/100. If you got lucky to find and participate in those projects, then you got your benefits but if not, that is just a waste fo time and frustration. That you don't you don't have to expect any from them so it will still be play of you get scam.

Oh common please, this will be one more stupid circus fight between 55 years old Tyson and Logal Paul that is 26 years old, almost 30 years younger guy.
When you see something like this you know that we live in fucked up clown world that has everything faked including fights that looks more like WWE.
I understand they all want to earn more money but this is not the way to do it.

He might be old but he could fucked up a 26 years old guy who doesnt have much experience nor have boxing type or build and imagine on how those
hard punches would go pass through on Logans body? Even we do say that his old but the power wont really be that easily fades up unless if he would
set up a 70% punching power or something that kind of act for them to last the fight then Tyson might do it and its true that this one is hell of a circus
type of fight.
Logan Paul may not have experience in professional boxing but he is a trained boxer, I mean he has been fighting exhibition fights so we can assume that he has been training, which tells that he could absorb punches from an old man. I like reading this kind of argument as that would also say that based on how fans see it, it's not gonna be a one-sided fight.

What happened now to Jackson Corpuz? Cleared to play the next game or not?

He is available next game as no announcement that he is suspended in game 3.

However, the news came out that he was fined Php 20,000 as the foul was upgraded to flagrant foul penalty 2.
I think the PBA really made a close investigation on what happened and I guess this fine is not enough, at least a suspension of 1 game since Rosario might not be able to play for the remaining games due to the injury he suffered from the dirty act of Jackson Corpuz.

Jackson Corpuz was mitted with a stiff penalty, 20k Php is stiff lol. At least the PBA had some explanations on that action of Corpuz of bumping Rosario airborne. The article says that Rosario is doubtful to play on game 4 so I think he is still in this series and he might rest for tomorrow's game and come back in game 5.

Even though Rosario might not play, the Katropa have Mickey Williams who played like an import, seems that magnolia has a hard time stopping him.

TNT -2.5 @1.97, I think this is a good bet. TNT should not let Magnolia equalize the series that might boost their confidence going into gme5.



You can take TNT -2.5 at 2.06, this is hinting something, maybe the rig is gonna happen again so the series will be even. Though Troy Rosario's stats were not so impressive in the finals his impact on the floor is huge for the team, so his loss is also huge. Good luck with your bet man, may you win it tonight.
