Where is the rally come from? BitGeSell rallies up to 50% and HotBit exchange

BitGeSell rallies up to 50% and HotBit exchange has been back for your trading. If you have your BitGeSell coins on Hotbit, your orders were canceled by the exchange. Go ahead, remember to reset your account password and set up your new orders.

It's surprising that BGL pump when the majority of the altcoins are dumping now/.
I don't know where it's coming but I think it's not a big deal because the trading volume is still low.

I'm happy that Hotbit is already back in operation, but hopefully, BGL will earn a decent volume.

For student coin, i think in my opinion, student coin can hit $0.8-1 when the coin is release, i already have a list and take a note on this coin that this coin will become huge in the near future. I do really hope that student coin can grow and will become on of the best altcoins in 2021.
Based on their telegram May 15 is the distribution of bounty campaign payments to their participants. Is their any effect to STC market price once it is released? But I read that the people will just hodl it until it reach around $1.
Definitely, there's an effect, please don't believe that all of them will hold until that price is reached, maybe some but probably lots of bounty hunters will dump, the price will not dump if the volume is enough to carry the dump, besides it's just temporary as this project has a potential but we have to be realistic.

The Lakers were always serious, it's just that Davis was still inconsistent when he came back from injury, now, it seems like he had already adjusted and they are on a winning streak already which is a good thing. With what they have shown in the last few games, this will not force Lebron to come back soon, it will give Lebron more time to rest and be ready in the playoffs, well, top 6 is really important for them, but let's see if they'll continue to win.
I guess they don't have time for rest because there are only three games left. By the way, the Lakers will play against the Rockets tonight, and more rumors have appeared that Lebron might return in this match. So we can expect that it will be an easy win for LAL.

No, he might still not play according to this article.

LeBron James out vs. Rockets, could return Saturday
The tweet : https://twitter.com/KingJames/status/1392583560327008260

It's not necessary for him to return yet since I believe The current Lakers squad could handle a weak Rockets team.

As the altcoin season is finally here, it's expected that money will flow to altcoins but it will not live bitcoin worthless, bitcoin is still a coin to watch. The hype is so high at the moment, so FOMO is happening and whatever coin is hype, people follow it.

just like the old days, after this altcoins season, investors will slowly go back to bitcoin as it's the most stable coin in the market and the dominant rate of bitcoin will again rise to 50% to 60%.

as of this writing, the BTC dominance rate is only 42%

Fortunate enough to have ride with the Warriors last two wins against the giants in the West. Looks like the Warriors have a chance of getting into the playoffs with the way they playing as of late.
Yeah, warriors look like the old warriors.. They played with urgency and with the win against the Jazz and the Suns, I have no doubt they'll win the remaining games.




Six games for tomorrow but i have my eyes locked on the Blazers vs Jazz game. Must win for the Blazers to avoid getting drag into the number 7 spot. Would the Jazz give this game to them?  Grin

Jazz could bounce back as well, it's hard to tell, probably I would go on the total and I predict it will end as over.
3506  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casimero vs Rigondeaux this August 14, 2021 on: May 12, 2021, 11:57:16 AM

Yes, he has a shot, but Casimero will hit him and he will become defensive again, that could make the fight boring for us.

I don't think that this fight will go boring, that superb power punch and accuracy of Rigondeaux will be his weapon while Casimero has the speed and power in my opinion this is definitely a very exciting match I could not see the full depth of what may happen means it is unpredictable.

You have to check the record of Rigo, when he steps up and fights high caliber boxers, it's usually more of defense skills and UD win, against Nonito and Joseph Agbeko, and when he fought Loma he quit. His last 3 fights,

Solis with a record of 30-5-1 = SD
Ceja 32-3 = TKO
Delgado 16-8 = KO

So that's level B fighter, now he is fighting a champion, at his prime, had a great chin, so I doubt that he can knock out Casimero with his "power". He is old at 40 and when fighters are ageing, the first thing that will go is your power and speed. Could be exciting in the first couple of rounds, until Casimero takes over or chin tested him and then Casimero will go back to his defensive style, which will make this fight a snoozer.

Casimero has to destroy the defense of Rigondeaux here as for sure, we can expect that he will just run and score and he will not fight toe to toe against Casimero as he knows his power. I like to see  KO win by Casimero as that would add up to his impressive victories in gambling, but I don't know if I will see it here.

Also a good win for the Golden State Warriors, they are not hitting their three point shot in the first two quarters. But it was complete turn around as they used this weapon to beat the Phoenix Suns.


It was an entertaining game, Warriors showed that they can beat even one of the best teams and they are successful in doing that. I like the Warriors in this game, everyone is contributing and it looks like they have a good momentum going to the elimination. I'm rooting for the Warriors now to advance in the playoffs, who's with me?
3508  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: XRP is pumping now. on: May 11, 2021, 01:06:07 PM
It cannot be erased from people's minds that XRP is currently facing a lawsuit; this also poses a significant risk to consumers of the coin, as it will result in a loss of confidence if the price drops; it also poses a significant risk for large transactions; just imagine losing 20% of your money when transacting a million-dollar transaction; the risk will be enormous.Many believe that if XRP prevails in court, the price of the cryptocurrency would skyrocket. But I believe this is a very surprising development for XRP, and we will have to wait to see what happens with XRP and the SEC in the future.
There is no need to wait too long for this, because the signs of winning are already very visible on XRP, because winning or losing is not seen in terms of decreases and rising prices in the market, but through real news and not speculation, well if you are currently this still doubts the XRP token which was once ranked third in crypto, so leave it, don't waste your time on it.  Grin

XRP is not anymore rank 3rd in crypto.

you can see the updated ranking now. https://coinmarketcap.com/

XRP drop to rank 7, that's because other altcoins have perform better than XRP, and DOGE and Cardano beat XRP in ranking.

Happy Friday, gamblers Smiley

Some time ago, last October, I asked you if BTC price increase has affected your gameplay somehow. Back then, it wasn't a problem for most of the users who replied.

Well, today the BTC price is almost $50K. I was just wondering, how are things now.
Are you still playing with Bitcoin, or have you switched to another coin due to a rise?

Thanks,
Karl from Bitcasino
Lucky that i read this late now coz the transaction fee decrease a lot so My Bitcoin gambling is back to normal.

I don't need to use my altcoin now because i believe that it is valuable to hold than Bitcoin nowadays.

So i'm not affected these days but recently? yeah i use altcoins .
Even if the bitcoin transaction fee decrease, with the high price of bitcoin price, that still not recommended to use bitcoin to gamble unless you have many bitcoins that you can use for anything you want. Many of us change our coins into altcoins instead of using bitcoin because they think that bitcoin is too worthy of being used for gamble. Besides that, the gambling website has many altcoins available on their site to use altcoin instead of bitcoin to gamble.

When you are gambling, you always convert your fiat to bitcoin, so it's not a big deal even if the price of bitcoin will increase, in fact, it will favor you as your win will increase due to the increasing value of bitcoin. The mentality of a gambler and an investor is different, we gamble to win, and we use bitcoin as a payment method only, not an investment.
3510  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Shall I HODL DOGE? on: May 08, 2021, 09:19:44 PM
You don't need to sell your BTC and exchange it for Dogecoin, because currently Dogecoin price is influenced by several big businessmen who make the price even higher, but what happens if they don't support Doge anymore, the price will gradually fall.
if possible I suggest that you stick with BTC instead of converting it to Dogecoin
Nobody can tell how high DOGE could achieve, it could reach $1 soon and investors will still hype it to reach a higher price. Just imagine how big DOGE has already reached, the higher it rises, the bigger it dumps, it's normal, they are just riding with the FOMO but when it comes to decision making, we have our own because we are the one taking the risk.

Well, to minimize the risk, we need to learn how to diversify, not necessarily leave DOGE for Bitcoin or vice versa, why not invest in both?
3511  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: The bull market is back? BTC is 57k on: May 08, 2021, 08:53:51 PM
I think bull run on btc is already done when it dumped to $55k and because of it, the market started the alt coin season wherein the top alts are showing a really great trend and pattern.
Not yet. It even dumped to $42k and there were already thoughts that it has ended but it didn't and came back to $55k and now $57k.
If the market is still bullish, it will not easily dump, it always recovers if it will dump, but when correction comes, we will be in the bear season. Looks like now it's very volatile, bitcoin heading now to $60k and it's crucial if it can break the walls and make a new ATH again. The dominance rate of bitcoin has dropped, its altcoins season already, but bitcoin still has room for an increase at it always have, but the more bitcoin will pump, people will eventually shift to bitcoin again leaving the altcoins to dump.
3512  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: May 08, 2021, 08:41:14 PM
Even them losing 8 of last 10 games I believe they will end on rank.6. Blazers have harder schedule than Lakers.

We can suppose that the Blazers will lose 3 of the remaining five games. In this case, the Lakers will need to win at least four upcoming games to return to rank 6. I guess the Lakers can win the Rockets, the Pacers, and the Pelicans, but they most likely will lose the Suns and the Knicks.

Blazers are also wanting to be in the safe spot, they will play hard to win and Blazers is a healthy team now, they can beat any team, even the Clippers, Jazz, and Nuggets if Lillard and CJ are playing well. The Lakers do not deserve to be in the top 6 with the way they are playing now.
3513  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bull run is over? on: May 08, 2021, 12:01:44 PM
If we're look into this current situation (hype and trend) right now almost everyone want to jump into crypto investment,

i think this year it gonna be so long ride for bullrun, even though few month ago we had a bad news such as "Turkey exchange and Biden Tax" now we already recover from that.
If news like that can get this market into a bull market then it makes me feel really the game is over as simple as that. In general, the current situation still shows that we are not ready for a major demise, and this topic is probably up and down because this is not the time for us to talk about it.

Bitcoin again in a bullish run, it's going $60k at the moment, it has a 3% increase only, but it has affected the market a lot, especially the altcoins market.
The most surprising is DOGE, its current price at .72 USD, and I think 1 USD is real, what a crazy move.

Also, we can look at the ranking of DOGE, it has already surpassed XRP, currently at rank number 4 next to BNB and they have a little disparity only, and soon DOGE might overtake BNB.

This is the real bull run, not only for bitcoin but for altcoins as well.
3514  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Floyd Mayweather vs. Logan Paul - June 6 on: May 08, 2021, 11:12:43 AM
@OgNasty. Can Floyd be charged of assault?

I would think it’s certainly possible. I’d have to look at state laws and stuff as to whether he could be charged without Jake pressing charges, but I would think there’s probably some investigations going on by the local police. Given that Jake has some fairly serious injuries, it wouldn’t be crazy to think Mayweather is going to have to cough up a couple bucks under the table.

There were also death threats made according to some news articles. It appears the Paul brothers can use this to assure a fight organized with Jake and a rematch with Logan or assault charges will be charged hehehe. They won the lottery heheehe!

If Paul will file charges, he might win because he was injured, then he can demand big money. I hope he will not do that, it's not fun because he started it all, it was because he stole Mayweather's hat, there could have been no fight if he didn't do that.

Threats with evidence, that might put Floyd's reputation at risk and he will be sued for that, but I don't really think it will reach this level, hopefully, all of what happened is just part of the big promotional act.

One example is Banchero, he was so good with the Alaska Aces but when he played with the Hotspots, he wasn't as effective as he was with Alaska.

Agree with you, he was the star player of Alaska but he was not effective with the magnolia. There are some players that fit in a certain team but does not in the other team, so Wright has to be also careful with this, he already earn his star status with his current team, so there's no need to transfer if he has the option to choose. Having Manuel is already a big gift, that should help them in their hope to be in the PBA Finals and win.

Banchero has been traded in Phoenix for Calvin Abueva, there's no sense if they will trade Wright when they already got someone who can help Wright. Anyway, these are just rumors, let's don't take it seriously, I'm sure they need at least one season to test if their decisions were working.

Meanwhile, looks like have have some good news here.

3516  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BTC price VS gambling on: May 08, 2021, 09:55:25 AM
Maybe until now the most used in gambling is bitcoin and Ethereum is one of the coins that are popular in the community so they don't care about fees, and this is only one transaction in the deposit and withdrawal this is not done very often by their whales. with large capital so it will take a long time to play in gambling using crypto.
So it is true that this is only an option of a middle class and minimal altcoin, so that is the best alternative choice so that many people will do it as they like.
Even millions of dollars of Bitcoin will not be a problem in the future, gambling will remain on top of bitcoin with many users.
Imo people still care about the fees, you'll see users complain about it whenever casinos bump their fees to like $25-$50 per withdraw request but there are other options available aside from converting since not all casinos have a big fee like the others. Like i've said before in my other post these fee issue comes up from time to time and eventually there will be a casino that'll solve these fee issues without having to use another coin.
This will bring problems mostly during a bull run or there's congestion in the blockchain, it's normal if we have followed how the market works and we are active in crypto. We are even lucky now that we have a lot of gambling sites accepting altcoins, unlike in the past there are only limited number which are accepting altcoins.

Lakers has a chance to win this game against the Blazers.

Anthony Davis says he plans to play vs. Trail Blazers

It confirms no Lebron James, but having AD is good enough to determine the chances of the Lakers to win here.
They just have to maintain a good ball movement here and penetrate on their advantage which is the inside, I guess Drummond and Davis are strong enough to play the inside.

No SCHRODER also, time for the bench to step up.

Jalalon is a game-changer, his energy on the floor is really outstanding, and since Magnolia is a defensive team, they need someone like Jalalon who plays with good hustle in the team. Paul Lee is aging too, I doubt Phoenix will allow their main exchange to be traded with Paul which is also having some injury problems lately.

If both stars for Wright which really demanding for the said trade, Personally i'll go with it. Jalalon is a great player he can adjust though like what you have said about Lee, he's aging and prone to more injuries but he still have it.

He still got the game, if he like this trade and the value of exchange is acceptable I mean the amount of money that he'll earn from it, for sure he'll grab it.

It's all about balance and how the trade will be discuss, for now it's rumors and we will only see if things materialized after the formal aanouncement coming from both camps.

Maybe it will make the Phoenix stronger, Wright is used to playing like a one-man game, all the attention is on him but if he will play with the Hotspots, it's a different play as the coach are carefully managing the time of the players, they have a good rotation and most likely the stats of Wright will drop if he can't adjust to the team. One example is Banchero, he was so good with the Alaska Aces but when he played with the Hotspots, he wasn't as effective as he was with Alaska.
3519  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is the best Sport to bet on ? on: May 07, 2021, 08:53:38 AM
Not sure about the best one but I know the worst one.

Literally yesterday I once more swore to myself to never bet on cybersports again. It was like midnight and no big tournaments were live (in basketball, the only sport I bet on), there was a cyber match going, and one side was winning with a huge difference. The first two quarters they earned like triple more points than the opponent, I waited for the third quarter to start and see how it will go. In the 3rd quarter, the winning team started dominating again, after 4-5 minutes I made a bet for their victory at a very small odd in the third quarter. The score was like 17-5 when I put my money and ended at 19-33. The same scenario happened in the fourth quarter as well.

it's just based on your experience, it's normal that we have some bad day in gambling, regardless of what sports we are betting, as a gambler, I also experience that and it sometimes made me mad and it resulted in bigger losses as I lost control since I tried to chase my loses so I could win it all back, but just like what they said, when you lose control, you are likely to lose.

IMO, it's only worst if you yourself gamble in a gamble that you don't really understand.
3520  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Manny Pacquiao offered $10 million to fight Terence Crawford on: May 07, 2021, 08:03:09 AM
Meanwhile, Terence Crawford also has a nice reputation in boxing which makes me consider watching if ever their fight will happen in the future. Crawford is considered to be next in line with Canelo Alvarez. I think he can still demand for a higher professional fee for their match. If ever, that will be his highest pay offer during his career as a boxer. If I were him, I'll never let such opportunity slip away my hands. After all, this can also serve as their stress-reliever now that we're facing a pandemic crisis.
I doubt he will be the next if he is not fighting champions, Crawford is I think overrated, he has to fight Spence first and prove that he really is the best in his division, if he only fought Manny Pacquiao, then we might see if he can really handle a caliber fighter, but it's unfortunate it didn't happen.
