I think that guy is really a crazy gambler Roll Eyes, Atlanta Hawks' win that day was very uncertain, their position was not so good during the entire conference final, no one thought the Hawks would win. Most of Milwaukee's ranked players were injured, while Lou Williams and Bogdannovic played great that day, both of whom together were able to add total 41 PTS to the team. However, the series was tied at 2-2. Crazy pick to put 120ltc for Hawks...
I think dude may have lost that money back already. I do not know who he is so maybe I am wrong but that dude basically bet on the loser of the series. If he wagered only on one game then he ended up winning and that is true, but if he ended up gambling on the other two games following this game, they were both Bucks, who knows maybe he wagered on bucks this time, that would mean he won some money. However if he wagered on Hawks again twice, then he ended up losing a good chunk of that win right back in this series.

We also have finals now, there is a good chance he could lose whatever is left and then some in the finals as well, who knows? That's all sportsbook is about, we are talking about something that is basically all around win and lose, you win some and you lose some and you hope that in the end you come out on top and not have a loss overall.

I don't think it's as simple as that in reality. If you look at the FUN token price you'll see it didn't change since the beginning of this offer and is still at  49 satoshis. Usually this kind of investment is offered more to create a craze and to attract new investors than to deter previous ones from selling them.
Maybe it is too early to see the effect of this offering. Let us see maybe a week or two if there will be change in its value. But if nothing else, it is up to you if you will put your fun tokens to locked savings. There is flexible savings option so you can redeem your savings anytime you want if you don't want your tokens to be locked at a specified period of time. But you also need to check the time frame of redeeming the flexible savings.
That's correct, in the crypt world there are two stages of things like this ; beforehand priced in , afterwards impact. So let's take bitcoin halving as an example, in the march of 2020 we were under 4k for the first time in a while, and in may 2020 we had halving, the price reached to 10k during may because of halving and people bought thinking bitcoin will go up, which it didn't at that specific month right after halving, it is not an instant skyrocket of price in crypto, however it did later on went as high as 64k a year later, so slowly it grew bigger and bigger.

It means it could happen to fun tokens as well, we are growing bigger and bigger and I think it will take some time but people will see the impact of these things into fun token gradually. I understand that we are used to seeing huge moves in a day, but slow and steady wins the race.

Max won another race and this time he didn't even seen any racer behind him neither, it wasn't even remotely close, I think he pitted one more time extra just to get the fastest lap which was already his by the way, literally just showboating at that moment, and if he didn't do that he would still have the fastest lap AND he would also end up with a lot more difference in the end as well.

The "losing" person of this race was Perez, not only he didn't reached as high as he can, which could be in the top 4 for sure, Hamilton was losing pace because of some issues so he would be there fighting with Norris and Bottas for the podium, but also because of his moves to Lerclerc now there are tons of fans that hate Perez for what he did. I mean it is obvious that he shouldn't have done those two moves, he literally pushed him aside and that is not allowed. It wasn't a boring race, it wasn't the best race but it wasn't a boring one neither.
3604  Economy / Speculation / Re: Resistance and Support of BTC everyday. on: July 05, 2021, 07:41:23 PM
Bitcoin is literally under 35k right now, it is even under 33.9k right now as well. If they were really the support levels that would mean that we would crash big time under those prices but we didn't, we just blew past them without any worry, I do not get why you picked those prices and what your indicator was but I can tell you that it is not what you think it is, the price is nowhere near that for support which begs the question even if the resistance was there if you failed your support.

Long story short, once again ; do not believe the people online who tell you something because more often than not they do not even know what they are talking about, there is just one huge support level (which could be broken very easily if people start selling) and that is around 28k levels, which should crash big time near to 20k levels if we ever go below that, but even that is not guaranteed because it is crypto anything could happen, we can be 27k tomorrow and 45k next day, that is just how crypto works.
3605  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you run when you fail or loose in a trade? on: July 05, 2021, 06:56:15 PM
Good that you aren't running after having a loss in trading but I don't think many guys will admit that they stop trading after loss publicly. There is a certain guilt people feel while accepting such things but I personally acknowledged that trading a certain type of coins was not working for me at all and I am proud to say that I have stopped trading such coins, mainly pump and dump coins.

I do lose in day trading and leverage trading at times but I know it's part of the learning curve and good thing that I am not making the same mistake and every day I realize and learn something new. I never took stop-loss seriously until recently when it saved me from a pretty big loss. Losing is nothing to be worried or ashamed about, learning from the mistake is important.
For some reason there is this toxic macho attitude in the crypto trading world where saying you were wrong is seen as some weakness. I do not know why people think that way and we all know that it is not like that in the long run but unfortunately that is the case for the crypto world. Making a mistake is very human, we all make mistakes, and you said that crypto will do this but it did the opposite is the bare minimum of being a mistake, many many people make mistakes, that is why there are people who lose money to begin with, not everyone can make a profit, there are even times when most lose money like the recent crash.

However you do not see people who come out and say "I know I said it will go up, but I was wrong and it went down" because in that case everyone will mock you forever even if 100 other times you were right, and people do not like to be mocked forever as understandably so.
3606  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: is bitcoin on future market? on: July 05, 2021, 06:11:11 PM
In the long term, it is better to completely abandon any Bitcoin derivatives, be it inverse swaps, futures, options, etc. Trade real bitcoin, not its derivative, where you are given candy wrappers in the form of contracts in exchange for your real bitcoins, which you can then exchange for real bitcoins.

Derivative trading is not a profitable behavior model and will not keep you afloat for long. But in the short term, this is of course a chance to get a quick start in the form of powerful capital gains. But if we look at the reports after the powerful movements of Bitcoin, then we always see multi-billion dollar liquidations. People overwhelmingly lose their money in futures trading. Therefore, I personally will be glad if in the future this direction of trade will gradually decrease.
That is very scary truth that nobody wants to admit. Unfortunately all of these huge drops happen because of the futures market and people do not realize that. The fact that you can take out a "loan" in form of USDT by giving your btc, then short or long your position with huge leverages, then when you fail they sell your bitcoin and turn it into usdt to pay your loan back.

It means in a situation where many many people end up being wrong, that results with all the money turn into usdt and that means many btc will be sold and that causes the price to go down. Many short futures people also end up trying to sell their bitcoin all at the same time when they are whales, in order to make a huge profit, and that sometimes becomes successful as well. So there are many ways that futures ruined crypto and it will keep doing so in the long run.
3607  Economy / Economics / Re: Vietnam Becomes Latest Country to Turn to Crypto on: July 05, 2021, 03:52:02 PM
I hope that more and more places turn to crypto because that is going to be the difference between third world nations and huge nations. With the addition of bitcoin into legality you are allowing people to get paid a lot easier, which means that you can find work overseas. So someone in vitneam could be a great coder, a better coder than some person in USA (I am sure there are both good and bad in both nations) but even the best vietnamese coder do not get paid a lot, whereas the best coder in USA gets paid millions of dollars.

Thanks to accepting bitcoin and making it legal, you are allowing Vietnamese coder to get paid more from some american company that still pays him less than the american they were about to pay, this allows vietnam to get more money and this allows USA company to pay less and it balance the nations closer together in the long run. Not right away of course but 30 nations like this versus one of USA it will get closer faster.
3608  Economy / Economics / Re: What Binance Market ban is about on: July 05, 2021, 02:48:30 PM
OP is 100% right, this is not "ban" on binance at all, it is not even a punishment of sorts, it is literally just harder regulations in order to prevent bad people laundering money and that's it. Binance is already working on it and they are going to make a brand new version for UK, they are working with few countries I believe they have it in few places and that is just going to continue down the road with another one for UK as well, that is just the direction they are going, creating local exchanges so that people could withdraw fiat to their bank accounts from binance as well.

So, have one major binance, have a connection with the local binance, and then move money around between them for free and that's it, binance will be able to allow you to both use binance global and also binance local to withdraw fiat or deposit fiat using only binance. This is going to benefit binance more than anyone else.
3609  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The point of Dogecoin. on: July 04, 2021, 08:01:08 PM
Is there really any points of dogecoin other than to meme it and use it as a pump and dump?
Anyone that has the audacity to compare ETH and Cake and Uni with Doge is kidding themselves and are people who are ignorant to what is going on in the crypto world. All the other big names that have no cap are the coins that people can use for something, it is not the same as the current situation in dogecoin which went up a ton this year and only because some rich person tweeted about it and others jumped on it and that's it, nothing more to it.

I personally believe that we should focus on something that would be the difference and the difference is you can use ETH for many stuff, people keep spending ETH all the time for transactions on thousands of different projects whereas doge is only used for shits and giggles and nothing more. This is why having no cap is never the same, will never be the same and result will be horrible for doge in the long run for sure.

I agree the online gambling industry now because of the pandemic has become the largest income-generating online it's a multi-billion dollar industry, and each one wants to get the big slice, and we here on Bitcointalk obviously knows who got the big slice, those gambling sites that offer a lot of features bonuses, maintain their reputation and takes care of their players by offering them something new.
It is not even that easy, you have to keep giving more and more games to people, it doesn't have to be new game but different version of same game, think about slots for example where you could have one slot made in the website and that is fine but there are now places offering up to 1000 different slots, competing with that requires you to partner up with some third party provider. There are blacjacks now in many places there are basically all kinds of games and there are several I have never heard before as well.

It is really getting very very competitive. However you are right, there are billions of dollars made in this online crypto gambling world so each company is trying to take their own share of that, which requires you to spend a lot of money. If you are small time place with not so much funds then you have zero chance to succeed in here.
I am not sure if that is a "must". Of course adding more games and having more promotions bla bla everything extra is a great deal, we should definitely have that and there is no denying that. However I also think that if you are "nice" then people will come to you as well.

I know it is vague a bit so I will try to explain but it is not easily explained, it is like a feeling that you have to have about a casino and nobody else can explain it to you until you actually feel that for a casino. It is like a person, he is not the smartest, he is not the richest, he is not the best looking, he is basically nothing that Hollywood movies tell us about as the main character, however lately you are starting to see people who are none of these things but they are "nice", they always do the right thing, never make wrong choice and always helpful towards people around them and happy about others happiness. I don't know if that explains it, but when a casino is like that, you know you want to play there, it is a feeling.
3611  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: BTC and ETH price are too high. Better invest in alt coins like ADA, DOT, MATIC on: July 03, 2021, 09:31:22 PM
There is no such thing as "too high" in crypto, you could still buy a small portion of bitcoin and you could still easily double your profit as well. How can doubling your profit is not enough? I mean you could buy from around 30k and then sell it when it reaches 150k and you would have x5 profit from just bitcoin, ethereum is even better because it is more volatile and has lower volume so more easily moved as well, you could have 5x profit but you could even make 10x profit from ethereum.

Any person that says that they can't get rich by 10x profiting should either lower their expectations or should have a better capital to start with otherwise 10x should make everyone a ton richer. I could literally retire with 20x for example, it is THAT much profit and if you do not make that much profit then you should not look for it in other silly stuff.
3612  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Market is recovering, what steps are you taking? on: July 03, 2021, 08:51:26 PM
I personally decided to just give a bit of a break on going with the whole altcoin thing. Don't get me wrong I already have plenty of them, not a lot of money in most of them but I still have a lot in number of coins instead of amount of dollars, each with just few tens and so forth and combine doesn't even make too much.

However instead of looking into finding more and more new stuff, I just decided I am going to grow my current portfolio bigger as it is. Instead of putting that money into new stuff, I am going to invest it into the one that dropped the most, and then keep going like that until I have more of these coins instead of brand new coins. That way I do not even have to work too hard or research anything neither because I know these coins and I trust them as well, it is good enough for me so I am not going to really bother checking out new stuff.
3613  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Some BSC influencers you follow for price signals? on: July 03, 2021, 05:37:17 PM
I am not too dependent on signals or news from someone, for BSC I am always interested in the information that CEO CZ provides about what he intends to do with it.
That's right, i like the way you following CZ Binance for getting the idea or information of the trend that was going on with the market. It is important to follow the true influencer for us to lessen our effort on searching the coin to be worth invested.
I doubt that would work in the profit sense. I mean if you are following CZ actually, you know that he is not sharing stuff that are too brand new, he shares stuff usually either coming out of their own launchpad or they are already not that brand new (like even if it is a month old) which means you are not going to find gems in CZ tweets.

However there are twitter influencers that check literally every single new stuff and they even invest a bit into each of them, daily, which means thousands of dollars each month just to check out and find out stuff about them. In the end some of them are really good, they find good gems that turn into profits, and some of them are bad and find just shitcoins. Nothing wrong with trying to help people as long as you do not charge money, if it is free then they are doing it for fun and to be helpful and that's it, that's fine.
3614  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is it possible to make good profits through ICOs? on: July 02, 2021, 09:32:06 PM
It used to be very profitable to this by the way. I know many people are not understanding the point of ICO these days because it makes no sense at all in 2021, however back in late 2017 and early 2018 it was THE deal because so many people made so many profits. There was this guy I do not remember his name but it was something like goblin or something and he shared the ICO's he believed that could profit, he invested in them at the price he says available at the time so it wouldn't be fake, and then he shared the current price of the day as days gone by, so you know he was legit and that dude made a lot of money from it.

The ones that gone down would go down 50% at most, but the ones that go up would go up as much as 10x so he was making a big amount from it overall. ICO was the way to make money at the time but slowly it just became worse and worse.
3615  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin will never be gone on: July 01, 2021, 09:16:26 PM
Its been so many years since I learned of bitcoin talk.I was amaze of this kind of currency.satoshi is so bright and smart person.even though we never know him personally and where he is.the bitcoin that he made is so so amazing.thats why until now I am thinking the great things happen in our life to have bitcoin.and now bitcoin was known all over the world.and they using bitcoin already as fiat.thats why I do believe that bitcoin will never be gone anymore.bitcoin will be part of our life forever.
How about you? Do we have the same idea of bitcoin?
Yeah, I also believe the same thing that Bitcoin will not be gone . Bitcoin is here to stay and no matter how much that there are people who are fighting against it and always things to discourage other people from being part of it, I don’t think it’s all going to work. And even with the government and their tactics on trying to pull down cryptocurrency, it’s not going to stop Bitcoin. Bitcoin is going to continue and it is going to grow to a higher level than it is right now. It just takes time and before you know it , things will start going as they are meant to be.
3616  Economy / Gambling / Re: Chips.gg |🎰 100k Event | Daily New Slots | on: July 01, 2021, 08:48:46 PM
Cant agree no more when it comes to design on which this is something a bit different on some known gambling sites at the moment which is actually an advantage because design is one of the factors that do really been checked out by most gamblers.

When it comes to games offered then yes these are typical ones from dice, crash to slots are mostly common or can be seen on most sites nowadays but we know that there always gamblers whom do stick
out on a site on where they do like and suits them most.

If they would maintain on doing the right service then no doubt this one will be one on the top.
Those "little" things are what makes the casinos different from each other. When you look at it in its core all casinos are basically few games, dice, crash, slots like you named, few others as well, but they are all the same game. What makes them different from each other? To start off with there is design like we said, because design matters a ton and makes you distinguish yourself from the other places. Then there is support, when you have a better support than everywhere else that matters a lot, then there is marketing, if you do great marketing and do promotions and bonuses and so forth that helps you out a million times more as well.

Basically you take a core website that every other casino has, and everyone builds from the same ground and make different buildings on top of that same plot of land. That is how chips became so good as well, because their building is great.
3617  Economy / Gambling / Re: Chips.gg |🎰 100k Event | Daily New Slots | on: June 30, 2021, 09:53:30 PM
A long awaited update and thanks for adding Crash. It is still one of the most fun and entertaining in-house casino games; when I get home, I will test it out and try to participate in the contest to finish in the top 50.

That is difficult to play because our luck only depends on how long the rocket crashes. And this game is very thrilling when you play without using the auto crash feature. It's hard to determine when the rocket crashed but the game is very fun and entertaining.
Mitchr4 we are talking about the crash game right? The crash game is around for some time, and I guess we all know what crash game is! Of course, it's fun and entertaining, for people who like to play it!

Animation is nice, but everything else is too simple, like with dices! Simple auto betting options, without any stats... more auto betting options, some session stats at least is what I like to see... I guess I like auto betting more than manual, and for that reason, I like it when I can have fun with the setup (you need more options for that), I like to see a statistic for my session, from that depends on my next session (rising bets, or I need to change something).
I would say not bad, but it could a lot better for sure!

I started an auto betting session, we will see the results tomorrow morning! Smiley
Crash is definitely something as old as crypto casino world, bustabit is one of the earliest games after dice games popping up. However it is also difficult at the same time, for me anyway. I played with it soooooo much back in the day that nowadays I do not really like playing it, however same doesn't go for dice games, I have been gambling on dice for nearly 8 years now and I have been still having fun no matter what, it is just way too entertaining to stop.

It means there are definitely some people who like to gamble on crash even after a millionth bet as well. Chips is also very very good at design, they probably have some in-house designer in the staff taking care of all of this, they always bring it home whenever they need to create something new, codes are mostly there for these games but when it comes to making a difference with the design? Chips is one of the best.
3618  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will BTC Go for Another All Time High This Year? on: June 30, 2021, 03:40:59 PM
I am optimistic that it will go up because there's still six months or so left for the market to do it so I guess my optimism that it will reach another ATH is in parallel with how many months there's left this year.
If you remember that bitcoin took only 3 weeks of time to double in 2017 December from 10k to 19.3k then you will understand how much enough time we are still having in this current bullish cycle of bitcoin markets. I am still very much bullish toward $280k levels before end of this year. Because, instructions' and governments' funds are powerful beyond our imaginations hence they may take bitcoin anywhere near to Mars as well Wink.

Today is the last day of first half of 2021 and tomorrow we are going to enter into all new half of this year; I mean within first half, we have seen some good rally and then some bearish actions and second half will be better than the first half as investors on board are completely different among these two time phases.
3619  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why is bitcoin plunging? What is the reason for this? on: June 29, 2021, 07:49:25 PM
Many factors caused the bitcoin price to fall today, including the controversy over Elon Musk tweet, many whales selling their bitcoins and also the Chinese government current ban on crypto activities, but from some of these reasons, I think the Chinese government has banned bitcoin mining activities is the biggest cause of the current fall in the price of bitcoin, admit it or not China is one of the mecca of the world economy today, so any sentiment issued by the Chinese government will certainly have a direct impact on the world economy, including in terms of crypto.
The second possible reason that caused crypto prices to fall is because the US monetary and fiscal policies are considered more catalytic so that investors see the possibility of the US central bank, the Federal Reserve (The Fed) starting a quantitative easing program that increases liquidity.
The price is already back over 36k price, which is all that we need to know about the market. What does this tell us? Well it tells us that even when Elon tweets, even when Chinese miners close shop, even when everything seems like it is going to suck, we still end up going back up again at these prices.

I am not saying that it went to a great price, we were over 40k just two weeks ago so that drop did cause it to be overall lower than what it was, however it also showed us that even when it goes down, then it goes back up and that is what we should be looking for in the market, a failure to keep going down. So, this means that if people end up buying at near 30k levels, that is going to help them and it has already happened three times total when price reached near 30k (and even go down under 30k once) and then went near 40k levels, that is a great profit to make if you took advantage of it.

There is already a bet history, it is on the right side if you check, not yours specifically, it is everyone as far as I can see, and there is even 24 hour biggest bets as well. What I would love to have is the integration of other systems for deposit and withdraw.

What I mean is, there are erc20 tokens and BSC tokens which are very cheap to gamble with, now you may not add them, but at least making a road to that could be a lot easier and better for the future because if they keep growing at this rate they are going to be the main bread and butter for many places and you will be forced to list them as well. My suggestion would be start accepting BNB for example, it is cheap and it is easy to deposit and withdraw, while using all chains, like bep2 but also bep20 as well, when you can accept bnb at bep20 that means you can start accepting others not so difficulty after that.
