There is like three teams or so that can do it, Orlando and Miami and one more I am forgetting that is not really all that inclusive. Sure maybe those teams could start practicing but I think it would still be a safe distance between each other Cheesy. I doubt anyone would want to work on their post up during this pandemic Cheesy.

I would have advise only to come back to team training when all teams are allowed by the government, if only a few of them can do it doesn't it create some disadvantage to other teams when they get back, few teams will be basically fully ready and doing 5 on 5 practices yet some teams will basically fish out of water and that is why I do not really think it would be fair. In the end we have only 20 games left, and being out of shape would really hurt everyone involved.

China is not on lockdown because if they are that means it would look like they are still carrying the virus and that would prevent them from selling stuff which they have to do in order to keep feeding billions of people, so they are making it look like everything is doing great in order sell stuff.

We all know wet market is real, there is also genocide going on, and saying something bad about the government will get you and your family killed, a ton of stuff are hushed hushed in China that the world is not speaking, not much you can do about it when politicians let it be to not anger their Chinese rich friends who provide them with cheap stuff.

Moreover people are idiots, that is why lockdowns are getting more relaxed, and I actually support it, idiots who will go outside will die, smart people who stay inside will live, Darwinism wins in the end.
3563  Economy / Economics / Re: Nobel Laureate asked India to print more money and not to worry about inflation on: April 26, 2020, 04:05:00 PM
There are levels between being like USA and being like Zimbabwe, if your money doesn't worth anything you could be like Zimbabwe and I realize that but Indian money is not worthless neither, people actually use it around the world for either purchasing something from India, or tourism to go there and vacation (and I think it is an amazing place to visit) and most importantly people give their own money to buy Indian labor from the people and get service in return, which those people turn into Indian fiat and use in their regular lives.

So, India may not be like USA at all, nobody is like USA they are maybe rivaled by only China and nobody else, however that doesn't mean that Indian economy is not strong around the world neither, they are doing pretty fine, not awesome but decent enough.
3564  Economy / Economics / Re: How many people have been panic selling? I didn't. on: April 26, 2020, 03:22:17 PM
Lol imagine those that sold when the price was down then? They will be regretting that they took that decision. Some people are always too fast, they don’t have any patience. Anyone who is investing their money in cryptocurrency really has to learn how to have patience. If you’re always in a rush you will keep on missing out on a lot of things.

So, it is very important to have patience and not to be in a hurry whether you’re buying or selling. Before you take any action in the market you should first of all sit down and take the time to do proper research and know where the market is really heading to before you start investing or selling.

I think 2.5 bucks for a withdrawal is not really that bad neither, if that is the max cap I would totally agree that it should be around that level, anything substantial that should be sent very quickly will take a bit of time. Plus they probably do this with a lot of withdrawals as well at any time which makes their transactions bigger and bigger, which costs a lot more for the top heavy and a lot less for the smaller transactions.

However if this is not the max and it could be more than 2.5 dollars, that starts to go into levels of danger, I wouldn't suggest them to have like 10 bucks per withdrawal thing no matter how much someone withdraws, even if it is thousands of dollars it should be at max 3 bucks or so, bitcoin is not really that expensive to send or receive.

Looks like we have some pretty good pickers in NFL. I didn't realize so many people were actually quite familiar with the game and names! I tried to follow online news but very hard to use google the results are very bad haha.

Anyone here did random picks and did well?
For people who are really interested in NFL that would be sad and they would hope to get some right, I would be upset if I had something like this for NBA and wasn't doing alright.

However for the rest of us who never watched (or just watched the Super Bowl) this is not really all that clear so I would really understand if you sucked at it so far, I haven't even tried, that is how much I do not trust myself, why would I think I have any chance at all when I can't name 5 Quarterbacks in the league right now, there is like 3 and one of them is Kap because he took a knee, so its more trend topic than QB for me Cheesy which is why to people who are not really doing well but not fan of NFL, do not really worry, you have done better than you can hope for even if you got one right.
3567  Economy / Exchanges / Re: What is the best crypto exchange? on: April 25, 2020, 08:55:30 AM
I don’t see how it’s hard to find a good exchange. There is Google and you can make use of Google to search for the best exchanges , there are already lots of articles that talks about this and to be sincere I’m always surprised when I see newbies saying that they invested on an exchange and it turned out to be a scam exchange.

Is it that they don’t do their research first before they start making use of an exchange? Sometimes they will mention and exchange that I have never heard or seen all my life lol, and I wonder how they came across those kind of exchanges. If you search for the best cryptocurrency exchanges on Google, the search will bring up the most popular exchange such as Coinbase, Binance and others. People shouldn’t be making these mistakes.

If you're a well known and successful trader, there are many ways to make a side earning other than trading. For example, you can try to open class for teaching other newbie traders and share tips about trading as well. Remember, knowledge is a valuable tool for you and others too.
Yeah, if you are hard working enough there are plenty of stuff that you can make money from crypto, from signature campaigns to bounties to airdrops to many other stuff, there is also plenty of regular jobs as well, community manager, brand manager, campaign manager, content writer, designer, coder and plenty more that could make money on crypto world.

Long story short if you really want to have a pure crypto income, and if you start early and keep working for months, even years, eventually you do reach to a point where all of your income is pure bitcoin. I know it because I have done it myself, haven't worked for fiat in over 4 years, been purely crypto. Of course when I need to spend it, I cash out to fiat because there is not really all that much I can pay with crypto just yet (hopefully one day).
3569  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How much does the community trust crypto banks on: April 24, 2020, 03:59:41 PM
How much does the community trust crypto banks? Since if we look at many people use P2P exchangers and through different ways to withdraw to Fiat , but could use a Bank account and buy and sell through a cryptobank
Crypto bank or crypto exchange, you may call them however you prefer but trusting them should be done only if you are able to file a complain against them in case of a dispute. It means a crypto bank should be legally bind with your geographical location and they must disclose all their physical administrative location along with registration/licence details.

Simply, if you are able to find crypto bank which acts exact similar to your traditional banking and additionally accepting crypto deposit/withdraw then what will be blocking you from trusting that services?

when do you think people will abandon the exchangers in favor of cryptobanks?
There will be no big differences between exchangers and cryptobanks. I guess people will not abandon one for another. Probably all crypto exchangers will upgrade themselves as a cryptobanks in near future given that after governments will legalize adoption of  cryptos.
3570  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What does success mean? on: April 24, 2020, 02:46:47 PM
Nah, I don’t agree with you. When a project's ideas and goals are realized , it doesn’t mean that it has become successful. Its goals and ideas can be realized, but still it wouldn’t be successful. When a project is being successful, it needs to be work and operate with other successful and bigger platforms to help it stand firmly, if not, then it might fall back if it chooses to operate with low standards and failures.

So, I am not going to blame people that wants the tokens and coins they are investing in to be listed on top exchanges , it’s because they know that the project is likely to fail otherwise. And I also understand that it is not easy for most teams to fulfill, this is why it’s important for a team to make sure that they are financially fit before embarking on this journey.
3571  Economy / Economics / Re: Corona has killed economy of many businesses on: April 24, 2020, 10:15:06 AM
The only business that are standing are the ones that I am thinking about investing into. Think about it if this company that was doing alright before the virus started to make even more profits during a pandemic that is at a global threat level, that means that company can rarely ever bankrupt unless they are managed horribly as well.

It means you have two options, if they are on stock markets that is, check out the ownership stock ratio, if the ownership has a lot of stocks that means they will be capable of doing whatever they want including bankrupting company with bad management as well, however if owners are not really high on the stock ratio that means there are tons of shareholders and there could be some sort of "fire the owners, hire a ceo" type of situation which I trust a lot more.
3572  Economy / Economics / Re: We need a economic revolution right now . on: April 24, 2020, 09:10:29 AM
Not even USA can support their people this way for too long let alone other nations, the only place that can do it right now is Europe because they are somehow doing very well in profits before all of this started and they are just using up all of that right now to recover from it, but that can't be too long neither because they can't sustain it neither.

I am seeing some printing of money in all of nations and all governments if this continues too long. I know there will be a vaccine one day, I know the number of infected goes down right now, and I know there are less and less people dying thanks to scientists figuring out a way to slow down the affects of the virus and help people recover faster (even if not a cure, at least a way to slow down is good) but in the end we need to make sure it is totally over before we can recover totally, like go outside however you want without a worry level of recovering.
3573  Economy / Economics / Re: China’s second corona wave can it crush it’s economy? on: April 24, 2020, 08:18:50 AM
Looking at the numbers around the world, china has gone through this a lot earlier than anyone else and it is normal that they are done with it by now however we do not have any sort of vaccine or a cure for corona which means we will never really be done with is it? I mean think about it, how could we really get rid of totally if anyone could have corona and not realize they have it inside a 14 day isolation period.

I had to go outside and work for a while and now we have separated rooms with my wife for the past 14 days, tomorrow will be my last day so we can finally get together, if I am so scared and if my wife is scared of me, how could we really expect people to go back to regular world and look at each other safely? I would assume anyone I meet would have corona until there is a cure for it.
3574  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is getting more adopted in my Country on: April 23, 2020, 07:16:00 PM
I feel very inspired right now. I just came across a video in which there's a Bitcoin ATM in the country! I feel so glad to see how Bitcoin is getting adopted. This proves that after all, our promotion of bitcoin is helping in spreading the news. And we aren't planning to stop the promotion anytime; we're even planning to hold more seminars to help people know about bitcoin. Now, one of the advantages of this Bitcoin ATM is that anyone who doesn't know what Bitcoin is and sees it would ask what the machine is used for, and from there, it just keeps spreading!!! Watch the video here to see how it works. BTW, What progress is happening in your country? If none then try doing more in favour of bitcoin (for countries that find bitcoin legal).
This might not be a sign of adoption, but it is a very good move by Nigerians. Imagine that a lot of people come across the Bitcoin ATM, they are probably going to ask about it just like you have said. And it’s not just that, the news will be trending, which I am very sure that it is already, because I have already seen someone mention this here in this forum and I have also seen it on Google news that an ATM was launched by an exchange in Nigeria.

When the news continues to trend like this, a lot of people who are not yet into Bitcoin will come across it and will be interested in know what Bitcoin is all about. By the time they some research about it, they will likely become part of it. And if they used Google in searching about it, it will be a personalized topic for them and will always show up on their Google News if that’s what they use.
3575  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is Covid-19 a cause for BTC price drops? on: April 23, 2020, 05:13:37 PM
I don’t know how it’s been in other countries, but the case keeps on increasing where I live everyday. I am not really worried about it though, I have tried to keep myself busy on things that matter and forget about everything that has been happening. Seriously, if you keep thinking about things like these you might just end up losing it or dying out of fear lol. So it’s best to always focus on things that will make you happy and forget about this.

The Coronavirus is for sure, part of the things that led to fall of bitcoin price (I said things, because to me, it doesn’t seem to be the only thing that caused it). I have also been suspecting that the oil has affected the price of Bitcoin in some ways. And just like you have said, a lot of people are more worried about survival than investment. People need food right now, and not where to invest their money, so some will even sell assets they have to use the money more important things.
3576  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to escape loss as an altcoin trader on: April 23, 2020, 04:28:27 PM
Well, you’re right about that, though this is not a new idea, it’s really old and many people have said it here and also many people are already doing it. Anyone that wants to save their money from being lost from the wild price movement of Bitcoin and other volatile cryptocurrencies should be using stable coins such as Dai, USDT, TUSD, and other stable coins there is in the market.

If you’re trading with Luno exchange (my favorite platform), you can exchange it to real USD and that way you will be safe and the money will still be in your wallet. One simple way to escape from altcoin trading is, choosing only 3 or more years old coins only for trading and that type of coins are always good for holding too (holding will not let traders to face losses).
3577  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: WHY THE BLAME ON BOUNTY HUNTERS FOR SHITCOINS? on: April 23, 2020, 03:44:25 PM
 It all depends on what the bounty hunters are aware of or not, that is the important topic here. If the bounty hunter is aware that they are doing something wrong and their coin that they are promoting is a bad one and basically they are moving people towards losing their money just so that they could make a profit, that means that bounty hunter is a bad person and should not be trusted ever again.

However if Bounty hunter is unaware of the situation as the investors, they have zero responsibility because they are not doing anything wrong at all, they are still doing the job they always do but this time around it turns out they were wrong, not a big deal if you ask me. So what they do is not important because they always do the same, their awareness matters most.
3578  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is USDT trusted to use? on: April 23, 2020, 03:09:32 PM
Tether literally printed out 600 MILLION DOLLARS worth of tether, we are talking about SIX HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS!
Are you aware how much that money is? They literally sold over 6 billion dollars worth of tether to public so far, I can not believe there are so many people who are willing to buy something that has zero value and make it such a big thing, over 6 billion dollars just given away to these people for no reason at all, they have used it for all their expenses.

What is next? They are going to start charging taxes on what you spend your tether on? They are literally doing what the government has done with fiat for centuries and they are doing it illegally as well. I have done my warning a million times, anyone who gets their money stolen when tether runs away is an idiot who never listened to me.
3579  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is Bitcoin creating panic again? on: April 22, 2020, 07:48:10 PM
It is literally around the price that we started the year with, I don't know if people are somehow scared and panicking because we once saw 10k+ in the year 2020 and that means we are lower compared to that, but even with that logic we have also seen under 4k just a month ago and we have spent a lot of time under 5k and even under 6k as well, right now it is over 6k and around 7k precisely which means we did moved from 7k to 10k so it is sad that we are at 7k but at the same time how about looking at the fact that we recovered from under 4k as well?

I don't see a reason to panic right now, bitcoin is doing awesome and to me right now it is creating hype around it to increase once again, without the increase I would have agreed but the latest thing bitcoin did was increasing.
3580  Economy / Speculation / Re: Should I sell bitcoin now? on: April 22, 2020, 07:13:11 PM
You know what is great about bitcoin not being so mainstream just yet? We are not really big enough to be the thing people sell when they are in financial trouble because not a lot of people has it neither. Think of how many people and more importantly how much money is involved in stock markets and compare that to bitcoin markets, even if you involve ALL crypto, I mean stable ones and altcoins and such, the whole market still doesn't really worth that much at all.

So right now if the things go bad because of corona, that still wouldn't hurt bitcoin as much as it hurts other stuff. So, that will probably result with a lower fall on bitcoin than other places falling and "a smaller fall compared to others" is still a store of value if you ask me.
