3561  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If China is so bad for miners, why aren't they moving? on: June 24, 2021, 11:14:14 PM
There would be lots of considerations to be taken first before moving out into other country just for the sake of mining.

1. Passport/Visa
2. Adaptation on new surroundings
3. Some legal reasons
4. Not all are that financially capabled.
5. Lots of adjustments and arrangements to be done.

This is why some of them opt out on selling their rigs instead of going all of the hassle that they would experienced on making such decision.
So it isn't really simple as it sounds honestly.
3562  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why the martingale system sucks! (doubling down on losses) on: June 24, 2021, 10:20:07 PM
The belief in the system is that when you do it, you basically win back all your losses from previous matches so you are basically trying to gamble by just breaking even. That's what I don't get in this system, besides doubling down on losses, you only have one way in this system and that is as I have said, breakeven.

The system is not created for you to break even, you started an exact amount then double it if you lose until you win, that's the only process you have to do and you don't use any kind of system as the system itself is very simple to follow. However, is it effective? the answer is yes if you have an unlimited bankroll.
But unlimited bankroll does only exist on dreams and not on real life.No matter how rich you are you would easily get wiped out when using up martingale.
This is why its never been suggested on relying with this kind of strategy because the more losing streak you would have the more deeper losses you would make and that wont really be sustainable as long the game would run plus imagine about doubling losses everytime then having a long streak will surely
blow up your account and this is why this strategy sucks but if you do know how to control yourself on getting out when you are in greens then that would
be a good news.

Heard of those a lot in here back in 2017, but it was always a "meh" for me even when I was still a newbie back then.
Imagine why do people still work a lot when there's possibility that doublers even exist in the first place.
From that mindset, I never believed in any of these doublers.
With just your own common sense then you could really tell it on the first place that those are just indeed obvious scams or money grabbers.
I wont deny that when im still a noob you would really get easily hooked up with these things on where you do really believe that you could
really make yourself rich in no time if these things would really continue to exist on the first place but if you do really make out some realizations
then you would eventually find out that these are just obvious scammers whom do really take advantage of those newbie minds.
3564  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does implementing a tax on a gambling platform really help a country? on: June 24, 2021, 08:06:09 PM
That's normal for them because greed is what makes them going on. And once they've already gathered a lot of money from their corrupt activities, that's making them hard to stop because it's becoming a habit of theirs.
I see that is normal to them, but if they can think about what will going to happen to them and their family, I am sure they will not want doing that because they will in the danger situations in the future. Yes, greediness will be the part of that and it needs to say NO to join in the corrupt officials but that will hard to avoid it if we do not have a control for ourselves.
It's just all about the money and business. They don't think of what's near to them as long as they're aiming for the bigger bucks that they can take as they corrupt.
Well, in different countries it became their habit and even the citizens know, it's hard to prove it unless there's really someone who's going to fight for them.
Tend to disagree on some words because not all on aiming big does mean that that theyre corrupt.Of course they would really be aiming on something more beneficial for them which is on a bit common and we shouldn't really be that directly be judgemental that majority of the government in the world is corrupt.
There would be still into those who are really in concern into their governing vicinity and that's why they would really be mindful on things which
that could be possibly be taxed and would really be added up on the pot for those kind of usage which is understandable.
3565  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Can the market build an immune system against meddling from influencer like Musk on: June 23, 2021, 11:42:42 PM
There nothing we can do about what Elon Musk is going to say about his twits, because he's a prominent person in terms of wealth. His popularity made him so famous here un cryptocurrency, and in fact most traders and business personalities made him a role model of success. Even though his throwing a serious and aggressive thoughts against bitcoin; that words coming from his is very iconic.
So don't really rely on that immune system, because this isn't a virus but an emotional battle thay we're facing nowadays.

Its a virus in my perspective, when people rely their investment decision based on a single person tweet.
In the future this thing couldnt happen anymore, people would realize how to invest on the proper way.
lack of knowledge is one of the reason why people are investing based on someone's tweet or advice without realizing that they are putting themselves into bigger risk of losing money. We can't control this one and the only thing that we can do is to spread awareness and to educate people. Influencer are being paid to hype a project, we should know this one and even Elon, I'm pretty sure he's working on some hidden agenda and that's why he continue to hype DOGE.
Not all the time because even myself is much fully aware on how this market moves and how those people get involved do make use of their popularity for the sake of their own shilling out on some coins in the market and for their own benefit which isn't something new into this market.Even you are fully aware
then there are really times which you cant just resist on not to get some involvement specially that you do know that you can really make out of it
even though its risky but it is really worth to try if you are really intently to take or rake out some profits once those movements do start to show off.
3566  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: YOUR FAVORITE GAMBLING? on: June 23, 2021, 11:07:49 PM
Nothing wrong with that, people just have different preferences, in my case I prefer games in which I have to think because that to me makes the games more entertaining, however games in which I cannot do that are games that are really boring to me and when we take into account the huge house edge that we see in slots then this is one of the games that I do not like at all, but I can see why some other people may in fact like it and decide to focus on it.
maybe some people will disagree with you, because basically the purpose of someone playing gambling games is to win money, and slots are one of the games that can be used as a reference for this because they do not have special tricks in the game, but if the game relies on tricks ( brain) of course our chances of getting a win are very small if our opponent is smarter and vice versa. just like you, I also make poker a game to get rid of boredom but of course I will also play as patiently as possible to be able to benefit in the game Grin

Each individual has a different assessment of gambling itself so, agree or disagree about someone's opinion of course it will also not be a problem. Because after all, we're also only going to gamble on the games we like so regardless of the type of game as long as they feel comfortable doing it, then they have many goals and it's not just about fun and making a profit.
Each person is indeed different and of course when it comes to interest and things we do like then people would have different selections and preference when it comes to gambling games that they do like which it isn't surprising that we would see different mentions and selections into the games that we do commonly see in gambling field.Some would like dice but some would really be sticking with sports betting which isn't something new because there are gamblers or people whom do really like to play basing up into their mood and emotions on that time.

If we do consider on how many times bitcoin had died then these plunging is something
to be part or casual events on this market.

3568  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence Jr - August 21 on: June 23, 2021, 10:09:28 PM
Anyway, back to the topic, Manny's age made him smarter, he understand that winning in boxing does not mean to KO your opponent, it should be done in a strategic way and that's why he is doing now.
True, it's because of the experience that he has gained with all of his matches. He's still pushing for a KO but that's hard enough for him if the opponent is also strong and tough. There's the respect that he's giving to his opponents, despite the highly talks that sometimes he makes during press conferences but it's part of gaining his confidence and not degrading himself. Sometimes it's just a lucky punch that's needed to KO someone but to end the match smoothly through points, he knows how to do it and that made him won with his other fights.

He is taking it slowly now, but in a consistent manner, if his opponent can't last long, that's where we will see a KO win by Manny, but I believe that is not his main focus, his focus is to win convincingly and to make himself safe at all times by not being careless.
Of course he would really be aiming to win and adding up the glory that he had currently and who knows that this might be the last fight that he would take before he decide to take out and hang his gloves and retire but it seems it is still too early for him to do so but with this upcoming fight Im much confident
that Manny Pacquiao would able to beat up Spence but he shouldn't really be careless when it comes to his defenses because Spence is still
young and into his prime where its too dangerous if he do let slip some chance for some solid lucky punch.
3569  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How do you know when to sell? on: June 23, 2021, 09:52:26 PM
You need to analyze the market and choose a convenient time to sell cryptocurrency, but not everyone can do this without special skills. There are also daily price prediction reviews from experienced traders, such as these.
You don't need special skills.

You have to understand when is the right time of selling, I agree on you with that. Because there's more to know and you can learn that later on when you have proper knowledge and experience already.

Do not go with the flow of the crowd because you'll just sell in FOMO.
This is actually true on where you don't really need any special skills but doesn't mean that it would really be simple because taking out simple decisions like
selling for profit is something that someone cant really just make out easily so its really understandable on why there are people who do really have a hard
time on making one even other peoples been saying that it was so simple but when they are on the actual situation then this is something that you cant
just do without proper knowledge and experience in the market. Taking profits is something that do talk about gains but each of us does have different targets an aim or goals.
3570  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Where to seek help if you need; concerned with gambling addiction. on: June 22, 2021, 11:31:27 PM
...

Having a addiction is not really bad but it based on the kind of addiction you have whether is a positive or negative addiction. Having a gambling addiction can also be said as positive if there is an achievement it brings to a person. Just like sports gambling, a lot of persons has become very rich with it making them popular. Although the beginning might be tedious be once mastery is gained,  then more money can be achieved.
It's true that many gambling addicts have become rich from gambling but will it last long?

most of them will only fall back into poverty because of their lack of control over themselves so they think that the money they win must be played back so that more and more. this is the reason why gambling addiction will never produce anything.
Gambling addicts wont stop as long they do have money or something that they can spend on their gambling activity and they wont really realize until its too late and this had been a common behavior of most gambling addicted who do wreck out themselves before they do make out some self realizations.Majority of them would really be that shy on sharing up their problem or simply tell or confess it into their loved ones which would really result on self stress and minding their own problem until it would be busted out or when they cant already take it anymore.
3571  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can we get another golden oppurtunity to buy? on: June 22, 2021, 10:43:31 PM
Nah, i think this is the perfect time to buy more bitcoin. Or you can wait untill bitcoin drop below than $30k.

There so many prediction bitcoin will drop until $24k, but if you think to invest for long term i think buy now is good too.
When we are aiming for long term then anytime would really be a good buy price but if you do mind that much on entering on possible bottom as possible then you would really be mindful on when you should enter and this is where entry do really vary into each person because we do have different knowledge and takings on things and when it comes to market price so we would really be seeing different decisions. Can we get another golden opportunity? of course we can and you should be wise on when it would happen and when you would
make out some action.

It's right fiulpro, such a step will only make things worse for a gambler who is addicted to both, drugs and gambling because intoxication is intoxication and in any way, if high dose is taken, then it can be very drastic for such gambler as he might not only lose his lifetime savings but his life too if he smokes too much weed there. These type of governments must be thought of as greedy and careless about their citizens.
Thinking off the same that they are just too loose when it comes to these things where it is a bit far on extent that they do come up into this idea where it is basically obvious on where they are involving weed now just for the benefit on retaining their players and make out play in the influence of weed which would really be normally resulted into those losing money scenarios yet who would be the one would able to
play well if they are smoked out? You can really see the desperation and dedication to make more money on here.
3573  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is there a pattern when there is a dump like this? on: June 22, 2021, 08:50:49 PM
You can see some patterns but doesnt mean that those things that we had seen in the past would definitely happen up in the future and this is what makes the situation even more harder for us to make out predictions and the market had always been like this.There's no way that you can determine for possible dumps that might happen ahead because if theres someone who can able to secure himself before the dump then he's already rich but we know its an impossible stuff. We are all speculators on here so better to take some action before its too late.
3574  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Breaking : Donaire Versus Casimero on: June 22, 2021, 07:53:28 PM
Donaire is kinda old in boxing terms, though can still perform well on the ring and have Casimero wanting to get that win so bad. Both have explosive power and good footwork that can accompany their pacing and the way they move around the ring. It can be hard to decide which of these two will be the better fighter on that ring, but nonetheless boxing fans are in for a treat, that's for sure. I'm leaning on the experience, power, and techniques of Donaire, but Casimero can still match some of that in the power department.
Speed!

They would really be having notable differences when it comes to this key area yet i have seen on how Casimero fights and yes he had that exploding power but when it comes to footwork and jab speeds then i would hands down to Donaire.

Even if he's old and past to his prime but still i wont be surprised if he would be taking down Casimero and this is why he should be still be careful even fighting an old man. Donaire is fast and very good on counterpunching so he better watch out.
3575  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Reminder for crypto newbies, traders. Be cautious with new exchanges on: June 19, 2021, 09:35:49 PM
Sometimes the newbies (even veteran members too) are pushed to do it when project's they've run bounties for give that as a condition for receiving reward worked for. I found myself in that situation in the recent past. After several weeks of bounty advertisement, the project team asked everyone to open account with an exchange which they controlled. In fact, it was an exchange the project just created once the bounty was drawing to an end. We all did. Rewards were transferred to the exchange to everyone's accounts but locked up. That project never made it. After listing it expectedly died off an an exit scam. I believe this can be one of the reasons for opening accounts with new exchanges.
The bounty that you follow is a bounty that is designed to trap everyone who follows it, in fact apart from having to open an account on the new exchange they created, they also require to make a deposit with a fairly large minimum amount. Those are the traits of an exchange that will fool beginners.
I am also part of a bounty that does the same thing and there are many other bounties.
For now the practice is no longer practiced, new methods have been used, scammers continue to grow.
and last but not least the safest exchanges are popular exchanges like Binance.

I havent encountered that kind of modus yet but it isnt surprising that they do really came up with that idea as long they would able to convinced out people to make out some deposits into a scammy exchange and this is why its really important that you should really be always vigilant and be alert on things around you and dont get easily fooled and just avoid when it seems becomes too shady or a bit suspicious because our own common sense
will able to tell us which one should be avoided and which one should be engaged on.
3576  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Is Binance too big to fail? on: June 19, 2021, 08:38:02 PM


People believe its not and have possibility theres too many fake transaction to increase the daily volume transactions. Market are full of manipulation and fake things, so the data is not really accurate bro.
Yeah right, there are many fake transaction still and traders and investors are aware now.

But given that fact Binance continue to take the first spot and still have many supporters and end users, the dominance still
on it and for now, this business are continuing to estabslish the  long term progress, too big to break and fail as for my personal opinion.

Yeah, but if Binance have any law problem regarding any market manipulation or fake transaction. I think US can shutdown Binance, however its just a very worst case.

They wont really be making such mistake because if we do consider on how big already Binance is then they wont really be letting the business go down just because of those scenario. There might be some issues but that would be only small and can be resolved or be handled and considering on how big it is on today compared into those previous years then we can really see that they did really succeed into this industry and they do really know on how to handle and run a business but somehow nothing do last forever but basing on the performance and things that they've been doing then for sure they will stay for a while.

~ And it's good that you have a faucet.
I've compared your odds with those of another sportsbook on a couple of games, and yours are indeed slightly better. However, it doesn't matter if you're actually charging $30 for withdrawal because then those small differences in odds don't make your casino better for gamblers anyway. I've also noticed that the withdrawal fee remark came up a few times in the thread, and yet you're not commenting on that.
Previously they have responded about the withdrawal fee issue, maybe you have missed the part. See it here. I just checked their withdrawal page and found that they are charging $10 for withdrawal on erc-20 network. The faucet will attract bettors to test the platform. I have claimed their faucet and placed a bet (on lower odds) but while I tried to claim the faucet again I got an error message. It's a good way to prevent faucet abusers

~
Of course any gambling site or business would do that and these arent charity so its just normal that they would really be having limitation and restrictions towards their faucet and when it comes to their fees then it would be understandable but it would be better to have dynamic ones
rather than on static since price could changed up from time to time. Ex. BTC min wid. 0.00020000 thats 7 usd as of this moment.
3578  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: You could die from trading. on: June 19, 2021, 06:32:19 PM
I don't think so that you could die through Forex Trading, but you could be losing tremendous money if you would enter the market, without any prior knowledge of the same.
yes I agree, they will not die if their condition is always good because their minds are still healthy. Indirectly , health is also good because a healthy person starts with a healthy mind . Different again with people who fail in trading, big losses even those who worry about their capital from debt. That I'm sure their minds are not healthy automatically their health is disturbed, especially mental
Yes, there are many in my country like this. They play trading with ambitious , trading skills are still beginners but brave and desperate to play trading . When they fail they are not mentally ready. Many commit suicide, crazy just because they fail in trading. It's really a shame, especially since the money used is not cold money, but the money used should be for other needs.
There are really people who are really anticipating and expecting too much that they could able to pull it off easily as they can see into other traders where making profits seems to be easy but without knowing or realizing on what are the things that they do experience first before they do able to experience on profiting which isnt really an easy one but newbies do always had that kind of bad presumption which do really end up on frustration and stress which would really result into self pity and anxiety until the time comes that they wont able to handle their emotions and commit suicide afterwards.
3579  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ohio offering lottery prize worth one million for those that get the COVID shot on: June 19, 2021, 05:36:26 PM
That would be an interesting question however I think it had an impact, there was a slowdown on the rate at which people were being vaccinated and when this was announced the vaccination program caught speed again which will most likely indicate it had a positive effect among those which were doubtful.

Also here it is the fourth winners of the lottery, just one more to go for this to be over.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/week-4-vax-a-million-winners-set-to-speak-with-ohio-gov-dewine-thursday-morning/ar-AAL9l0V
This made an impact.

And I think other cities had also made their own offers so that the people will be encouraged to take the vaccine.

It boosted confidence of the people and those that only wants to have a lottery ticket and other possible prizes, they've just taken the vaccine because of it. But well, they've been vaccinated no matter what, win or no announcement, it's still a win for their local.
Wouldnt matter on what are the situation as long they would be vaccinated then thats what government is been aiming on since from the start and it is just great that at least their government is showing off some concern into its citizens to take the shot and wont really be having those kind of hesitance and this is why these kind of ideas do come out because there are people who cant really be forced on doing so. One million prize for possible hit on lottery when you do take a shot but it would be better if they had divided  the prize into smaller parts at least lots would really benefit out and not just single entity and at least that will help them amidst of this pandemic.

Any one with price prediction?
Good thing that you do able to sell out for that price as it didnt turns out for you a waiting game since the price had decreased for how many months and we've been playing around 30k+ price and it does even had the hard time on on breaking 40k resistance but doesnt mean that we wont really breaking that line anytime soon.In regards with price movement then its never been predictable and no one can give out on what would be the possible
bottom would be on this market. The market does have lots of rumors and hearings about drop in prices but the price doesnt really show any relevance
towards those claims so better watch out.
