As for this match, I can't pick because they are legends. But I would say that Cotto will have a slight advantage against Marquez here. And we all know that this is just an exhibition though, friendly fight for this two great boxers of our generations.

You should make a pick if you are betting on this fight, just for fun, you can put a little bet so you'll enjoy more this fight. Cotto as per majority here is the favorite, but we don'y really know what would happen in the actual fight, it could be Marquez who will win, we never know that's why we make a guess and bet on the fighter that we think will win.

I want the Haney and Garcia fight but will not accept that they go to the fight because there is an intervention like rigging a fight

Where did you hear that speculation? rigging a fight is a big accusation, and these are champions of their own division, I don't think they'll ruined their reputation by just rigging a fight, no, it's not gonna happen, if they have plans, we will never know.

I'm currently checking these games.

Dallas vs LA Lakers
Toronto vs NYK
76ers vs Bucks.

I would just pick one, I will share my pick as soon as I will finalize my pick.

I hope you will be picking the Dallas vs Lakers game and give you analysis on that one.

I bet for the Mavs last time as i though that AD would not play, luckily the Mavs won but i think the output would be different this time with Davis playing more minutes.

He will be playing more minutes while KP is still questionable in this game, might as well wait until there's a formal announcement if KP will play, that would add some good value on the Mavericks if he will play.

FOMO is one of the big enemy that needs to be conquered if you want to succeed in trading and investing. alot of people usually neglect investing at the early stage but only wake up to join the train when its halfway or near the destination. the oppression from friends and mates is also one of the things that make people fomo. thats why its always important to keep your emotions under control. dont be oppressed by anyones profit, you will make your own if you do the right thing. i read comments from lots of traders that are lamenting of their loss because of fomoing to buy the top. one important thing to always remember is that there are alot of opportunity, all you have to do is to find them early and buy into them.
Have a plan, go straight on it, and reach our goal.

Because no matter what your friend had said, even you heard FUD's, it certainly won't affect your decision as you are heading straight to your target goal. Accepting other ideas, becoming an open-minded is something could help but as you who hold the future of your investment will have the right position to decide what you want. And it is you also who analyze what people says if that is wrong or really reasonable right but we shouldn't have to forget what we aim for. FOMOing is a challenge and many we're not able to survive.

Losses are just normal to traders, not all the time you wre gaining,there are times that your investment will get low as you go by trading, learning in your losses is just normal for us traders, sometimes we are frustrated about wrong coin choices and we tend to lose hope but just kwwp pushing in trading and be wise in buying alt coin pairs.
But sometimes it never makes sense pushing ourselves to a thing that we are not fit into coz it is just like we are throwing our money so easy. If feel disappointed and frustrated in trading the more it becomes worse and we ends losing everything we have. It is neither to choose another opportunity rather that staying to trading that seems are not meant for us. We better have a clear understanding towards ourselves and trading in order not to hurt ourselves in the end.

Well, it guaranteed less, but at least people are enjoying the market rallies and hypes which is what we mostly asking and finally has arrived. But I don't think that this last for  a longer time, and better to take this as an opportunity to make some good money rather than to keep holding.
In fact, as we can see now, Bitcoin is started to show some declines. Well, that to think just a market corrections but can't just be confident enough even we have a huge trust to Bitcoin as mostly it happens that altcoins will also have to follow once BTC price drop.
3647  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will stablecoins replace Fiat currencies in the future? on: April 23, 2021, 11:52:22 PM

This makes me wonder, will stablecoins replace Fiat currencies in the future? If not, why? Is there a possibility governments will adopt stablecoins as their own instead of launching digital currencies from scratch? Your input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Smiley
As the market continues to show its changes, I could say that it can't be impossible. It is a choice of the people to let that thing happen in the future. Because if that only the best solution to help this volatility stopped and continue to adopt the world of digitalization market, that it looks very acceptable to the people. But it finds more in government control on the market the same as how the fiat currencies run through.
3648  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Floyd Mayweather vs. Logan Paul - June 5 on: April 23, 2021, 12:49:16 PM
I won't put money on Logan Paul.

Before Jake Paul fight against Ben Askren, nobody believed that the kid could win a formal UFC fighter or at least pro athlete. People only talked how a person that trained martial arts for his entire life would beat a youtube parrot. Then happened what nobody expected. Not only Jake won, but he TKOed Askren Cheesy I would not bet on Logan winning, but would consider betting on a draw or no contest.

I beg to disagree, the betting line says Jake Paul is a heavy favorite, so fans knows that Jake Paul is the better fighter compared to Ben Askren, and they are correct because Jake Paul end the fight in just round one. However, we are talking of his brother here, which has not won a single fight yet and are now trying to square up with the best figher in the world.

definitely, as I said before they will restrict Anthony Davis minutes and he will not perform well in his return because he will, measure or check if there is still pain, he needs a couple of games to bring back to the original shape, Boston players are really improving especially Jason Tatum he will be a franchise player for them, he is still young and more room for growth can't wait to see how he will perform in his prime.
Davis had some limited production due to limited minutes, but I think he is pissed with that limit and Lebron laught at him.

I saw this video in youtube, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RvwOB80RFso... our guy Davis still want to play but has to follow the minute restriction.

Let's understand his emotion, he just want his team to win because their standing is going down. Give him few games and he will not be restricted again, just like Kevin Durant when he got back from injury, he was only given with limited minutes but eventually got off from restriction and played the maximum minutes, unfortunate for him he was injured again, so probably Lakers managemnet are just being careful as they know how valuable Davis in the playoffs.

That's right the guy has just returned after suffered some injuries that cause him to be absent in the court for months and now he's back. Although the game was not that good for them, they still at their good spot and will continue to be there when he gives all his best and when Lebron James returned too, they will play like they were in the NBA finals last year. now that they have Andrew in the line big man roles in the court will be easy for them at this time.

I don't think it will be easier for them this NBA Finals if indeed they will make it again, why? because the Nets are a strong team, they could dominate in the East once they are all healthy. Drummond is strong but Nets have also upgraded their line up, and that is to beat the Lakers.

This NBA Finals will be a fair match up, unlike before where Heat was a real underdog.

It has been carried by their own opinion, two different opinions. They have been in the business field where we suppose to think that they are more knowledgeable than us, compared to a normal people.

Of what Gates have said is the thing that he able to see in the future its either be right or wrong. It is just also the same as what Elon did. We find it that they opposing each other and see's that Elon Musk is closer to reality but we can't say that Gates is wrong. We can't prove it now until such time that he accept his losses.

That can totally change your life but not that you've lost your private keys, you have to move on and keep dreaming again until you reach that goal. This is life, we learn from our expensive experience but know that this is not the end of your life and you can always have bitcoin. Don't use any wallet if you don't know how to keep your private keys, this must be your top priority before anything else. Bitcoin can still make you rich, start over again.
But that is much and it is really hard to accept it.

I just hope that OP still has the strength to start trading again and leave this thing as a memory to make his life going better. And this could give somewhat a lesson to everyone remembering that we have to secure our keys and that be sure that we are the one who controls our wallet, not the other person or third party services.

But based on his statement: “No specifics as the bubble isn’t the first option,”. If that's the case then there's no point in waiting on the vaccine if they will decide on a bubble setup. They can do the opening even next month.

But the league voiced out concerns about the cost of setting up a bubble so why all of a sudden, they will shift into a bubble. They are already waiting for a long so why postponed the first schedule if, in the end, the bubble will be the option.

They just want to start a the reason, that's it, they didn't see it coming that new restrictions will be impose so suddenly a change of plan was made. Bubble or regular set up, let's leave that up to them, they know what they are doing, even if its costly, as long as the new season will start, that would already satsify us.

It will cost them big, cost of vaccines + cost of bubble which is Php 60M last year.
Where did you get this figure? did you read it somewhere? share some source.

Its unfortunate night for trae young and it gives a confident to knicks since their star is not on the court and hawks really feels what they missed in trae's absence. Hopefully its not a serious injury and he can able to step back as soon as possible.

But still kodus to D.Rose and Randle for stepping up since they show knicks could possibly dominate in play offs if their rooster is all healthy.
Don't worry about it, it's not serious according to the news, so that means he will be back in this season, if not in the regular season then probably in the playoffs.

Trae Young Ankle Injury X-Rays Negative After Being Helped off Court
Regular season is weird, some teams are playing much better than they normally are, and some teams are playing much worse than what they really are. Look at Suns, Utah, New York and you will see teams that are good in the regular season. However when the playoffs come, there won't be any of that, teams like Bucks, Sixers, Lakers, Clippers and the likes will be fighting for a finals chance, at the finals anything could happen but at the first round I am sure that all these overachieving teams will try very hard to go to second round, most will not be even able to.

This is why everyone should ignore the regular season standings, it may show a story, but the reality is very much different than the story regular standings tell. I do not know if Lebron or AD will come back for playoffs but you really think Lakers are as bad as the standings say? That's just one example.

Sus and New York has not been in the playoffs for a while, so we can't make a conclusion that they will not play well in the playoffs, but it's better because we have less expectation to the team that they will make it, but getting into the playoffs is a big success already, all they have to do is to improve every season until they'll curve their way to the playoffs and make a reputation.
3654  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Gifting my little sister with Ethereum for her birthday on: April 21, 2021, 10:53:58 PM
Her birthday was just a few days ago, and I was thinking in doing something different. She already knows that I am into cryptocurrency for a long while, and she was also exploring it recently. I was asking her if she would like some Ethereum as a gift for her birthday, and she never hesitated to say yes! However, she didn't expect the amount that I've sent her.

She was expecting way less, but I sent her $100 worth of Ethereum (+$6 in gas fees) and she was all smiles thanking me for it. For me, it's such a great feeling to give her something like that, as I love her very much.
It surely surprises her and appreciate it that much. It is a rare gift (for now)but soon this becoming common if we are fully engaged in crypto and when we can spend crypto anywhere. I have a plan to do that as well but I realize that person that we're going to receive has no knowledge about crypto, so it is possible that she will not be going to happy.

Sending a gift to someone we love and sees that he/she is happy, is really a great pleasure.

BNB coin will remain valuable as long as Binance exchange still exists. We saw how it struggling hard to keep the momentum until it reaches this ultimate high and even to surpass those coins that are already in the market for so long. As for it was protected by the developers and Binance, that will be going to happen forever. I called BNB as a signature coin representing Binance exchange.

there's an update regarding the rules on the VisMin Cup that forces the teams to surrender their phones before the games to the technical group of VisMin Cup with the coordination of the PNP officials(Philippine National Police). this was their solution to prevent or deter any future game-fixing in the game.

also, I am glad that VisMin Cup organizers have decided to ban the members of siquijor team and a suspension and penalties to the players of Lapu-Lapu team.

https://www.spin.ph/basketball/vismin-cup-orders-teams-to-surrender-mobile-phones-before-games-a795-20210420

Surrender the phone? what for?

I did not like the solution, it seems its not hitting the real problem here, these players who are into sports rigging are not stupid, now that they know the rules, they can still find a ways to rig games, some already have a plan on how to rig before the start of the game.
3657  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BTC price VS gambling on: April 21, 2021, 12:59:27 PM
Why I don’t gamble with Bitcoin is because of the recent rise in the cause of transaction, I am more comfortable holding my Bitcoin and gamble with other coins must especially if the gambling site allows deposits of altcoins that are stable in price.
There's no altcoins that are stable, unless you are using stable coin itself, the popular stable coin is USDT and it's still high in transaction so you can use it in gambling as i think there are also few sites who are accepting usdt.
3658  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: My trading strategies on: April 20, 2021, 09:57:13 PM
First am not a pro trader, but my trading techniques have proven fundamentals. I recycled around Bitcoin and some handful of good altcoins; I trade with a hand full of funds since altcoins and the bitcoin market move in the opposite direction; I fill my bags with altcoins when the alt markets are down against Bitcoin and sell them when the market is on the rise to buy bitcoin which will be on a downtrend at that moment.

This technique has worked for me over the years.

You're not in trading, honestly. You are just an investor. These two are different, you'd find it wrong to call yourself.

Anyway, never mind it. Your strategy had been a practice for a long time ago and it still exists until the present times. This is simply to say that this strategy is really working and you have proved it. Nevertheless, choosing the coins to buy is somewhat important and it should be those coins that are more volatile considering that the price keeps moving up and down.

Nuggets vs Grizzlies double overtime. What a game! That was indeed exciting.
They just went back and forth with the lead. Jokic exhausted but still making great shots for the team. 47 points 16 rebounds. 45 minutes of game time.

Facu did pretty well stopping Ja. Barton with big shots and Dozier locking the win with his 2 high pressure free throws.
Great night for the Nuggets fan. That was worth every dollar for the ticket.  Cheesy

Nuggets knows how to win, they are behind most of the time in this game but they did come back. I am also impressed with the Grizzlies because they have been winning more games lately and despite they are playing on the road, they still have a good win rate record. I think I'm already seeing a potential playoff match up.

Have you guys knew that Mickey Williams is still not officially a Katropa?

Yes, according to news on social media that Williams wants to be paid equal to his salary in his MPBL days which is Php300K in which many doubted it was true because no MPBL teams is rich enough to pay that kind of amount.

The maximum rookie salary is Php200K and considering you are a rookie i think this is enough and not agreeing to that might give the team an impression that you have a problem attitude because you are deviating to standards.

What do you think of this case?

I read some article regarding that, at least his asking price is justifiable, and since the PBA salary cap is not actually followed, then why TNT can give that to him? It look TNT is the problem here, some of the star players have contract problem, to name players I knew, Ray Parks and Terrence Romeo, what Romeo did was just a success because he got traded to the SMB but Ray Parks was a failure.

Bottom line, it's time for the PBA to upgrade their salary structure if they want to stay at the top.
