No matter how high crypto coins go bear market is unavoidable it's just the way the market survives, many people are brainwashed with present market condition that they already forget what bear market is, no amount of money can stop bear market from happening, don't say I don't warn you be prepared.
If you are investing for a short amount of time then this might be a big help for you.
If you are investing for quite some time already, this kind of advice is very common already.

As for me who is investing for some time, I've heard this numerous time already and I know already that its not only in crypto that has bear market. Even though in stock market there is a bear market. Bear markets in every markets are inevitable. Just be ready if a bear market is happening and you're good to go.

I think they already know that sanctions will be imposed to them by other countries especially NATO countries so I guess they already have a solution with it. They might survive for a few more months but if this will last for years then I don't think they will survive.

Well, the war is over already since there is peace talks happening between the 2 countries and Ukraine is applying in the European Union. Now that the war is over, can I ask here if the sanctions are still in effect even though the 2 countries are in peace talks already? I'm curious so.. yeah Smiley. Thanks

On the other hand though, its quite shameful to the team if they will lose to the Blackwater team so I guess the streak continues Cheesy.

I think losing is just normal, and eventually, Blackwater will win because they are so desperate for a win, they will work every game to improve their chances of winning. I don't know when the streak will be over but I know them being winless will not be forever.

Northport vs Blackwater, the hottest team vs the coldest team in the PBA.  Smiley
Yes they will win I believe on them but not this season I guess. They will continue their losing streak until next season.
I just hope that they will get a very good player coming draft pick and let it stay with the team. If the owner really wants to continue his stint in the PBA then at least build a team that can at least enter the playoffs.

NorthPort vs. BlackWater. I will bet for Blackwater with this one Cheesy. JK JK!!

That footage of Jeanie Buss walking out of the Pelicans vs Lakers game seemed to sum up how upset management is that they keep surrounding LeBron with stars but can’t seem to win a game. Russ has been playing terrible and it seems like LeBron is starting to feel the fatigue. With AD out again for several weeks, you have to wonder if this team will even make the playoffs.
Didn't see the footage but with what is happening right now with the team, maybe the highest position that they can join is in the play-in tournament already and I don't expect them to enter the playoffs as well. If that will happen then his 15 consecutive times of entering the playoffs will be broken.
Ninja Turtle (Westbrook) doesn't play the way they wanted to be. AD will miss again for several weeks. No one can step up and carry the team aside from Lebron. We are almost at the 3/4's of the season already and the playoffs will start in a few weeks. The chances of them entering the playoffs with how they are playing is very low and if they will, they will be eliminated again in the first round.

As for the Harden and Embiid pairing, it seems to be going better than expected. I can’t wait to see if the same fate awaits the Nets. It seems like that trade may end up being a win for both teams.
The Nets-Sixers trade is a win-win for both of the teams but Nets won the trade if you will just base on the players involved in the trade.
Harden made the Sixers strong since they aren't using Simmons anyway but Nets are stronger with their new players. Its just that their new big 3 isn't playing as usual. Lets wait for them to come back and play again. Many are still thinking for the Nets to win the championship this year.

Almost everyone I knew now creates their own tokens  Grin these guys aren't even crypto developers to begin with, they have no coding experience or knowledge now this makes me worry, imagine how many crypto tokens that are created by inexperienced personal, I think we need to buckle up for there will be huge rain of scam tokens upon us than what we've seen before...... Sigh! I wish that only few qualified people knew how to build blockchain projects.
I think you're already late to the party Cheesy.
There are many projects already that have been emerged where the main reason is to just scam people. There are many tokens that have been created by creators who don't even know how to use any programming language. That is because creating tokens now can be done by everybody. Creating tokens now are easier that what is in the past. Just a few clicks and "voila", you already have a token Cheesy.

As for me, no need to buckle up as I'm just focusing on buying top tokens rather than risking my money buying those new and low market cap tokens. Maybe its better too if that is what you will be focusing with especially if you only have low budget to use in investing like me.
3886  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Canelo Alvarez vs Dmitry Bivol - May 7 on: February 28, 2022, 12:08:09 PM
Canelo has been thru many weight divisions in his career and now he will go up again and face another title holder though he isn't popular isn't he?
Anyway, Canelo as usual is the pick to win in this fight but there is still a chance for Bivol to win (quite low though maybe around 1-5%).

Watched Bivol's highlights on Youtube and he is an offensive boxer but I don't think he can defeat Canelo. Canelo will just turn into a defensive boxer and do counter punching until it turn upside down then he will go offensive. Well, a trilogy of the GGG Vs. Canelo fight and I'm pretty sure GGG really wants to get his revenge against Canelo since he gave him his first defeat.

Still, I'm waiting for which team will lose to this Blackwater team. I'm very excited to see it Cheesy.

No team will lose in Blackwater. Blackwater is doing great in maintaining the hardest record in the PBA and the whole world. I believed they are dedicated to maintaining and improving that record.

There will be more losses to come at this team. No one can change it.

Go BlackWater!

If the team will be defeated by Blackwater I think they give a chance to a black water team:Smiley cause in what blackwater experiences right now is the hardest situation by a team even a single win they not got but in there all game has a loss.
I think that's the climax of the story of black water if they win against their future games but if they will still loss and no single win in the whole conference I think they build an history in the world of PBA.

As I said before, BlackWater will maintain their biggest record this season.

Seriously, the only time they will get a win is if they won't give up their good role players that showing some improvement now. Being in the lowest standing, they will also have a ticket in getting a good first-round pick every draft period.

They should also involved in big trades although it needs big money.
Well, I'm thinking the same as you and seeing the last 3 games of Blackwater which is is against Magnolia, TNT and NorthPort I don't think that they can defeat at least one of them.

They will get a good pick in the upcoming draft pick but as always, either MVP or SMC will get them again. That is the vicious cycle that is still happening and will happen for many more years. Now they got Rey Suerte which might be a good player and if other teams see him improving every season, they will get him again thru free agency or trade.

On the other hand though, its quite shameful to the team if they will lose to the Blackwater team so I guess the streak continues Cheesy.
3888  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: February 28, 2022, 10:07:58 AM

 The talk around the league is that Lebron is unhappy with the current situation. He told the management they should not get Westbrook and get some shooters, but they saw a superstar and took him anyway. It resulted with the team being bad, and now that they also didn't send him away for a better fit player until the deadline, its obvious they are not going to be great this year. With AD missing 4-5 more weeks on to pof all the games he missed, they are going to suck this year for sure. Lebron is furious that his last years is passing without getting some more rings and he may actually end up leaving. His contract is getting over and he could just do 1 year rental in any place until his son joins the league and just go join that team before he retires. Its a real valid possibility.

If I'm not mistaken, he was the one instrumental of getting Westbrook to the Lakers. He even defending the team in the beginning from the haters. Of course who wouldn't be happy with how the team turns out to be with all the superstars around. There were talks of John Wall - Russ Westbrook before the deadline but the Lakers doesn't want to because Houston is asking for more players. It's up for Lebron to leave Lakers, he might transfer to other teams will waiting for his son to play in the NBA.
I think this might be his last year with the Lakers and after that, he will request a trade for sure and there will be some teams who will be interested with him still.
I don't think that he can still afford to stay on the Lakers one more year with what is happening. Yes he is one of the defenders of Westbrook against bashers but it looks like it didn't work the way he wanted to be. He thought that they can still be a championship contender but they aren't.

Now with what is happening with the Lakers, it seems like their chances of entering the playoffs is going down. Now even the Laker fans aren't like them anymore and they are chanting boo's with the team already. Its understandable though that Lebron aren't the same as he was a few years ago because of his age but the problem is if he isn't playing, the team isn't playing well. AD is injured as well and Westbrook?? No comment for him anymore Smiley.
3889  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: You Must be Over 18 years on: February 26, 2022, 02:20:42 PM
I read every Internet gambling had requirements that must be over 18 years. if a child is under that age, how did the website owner know that child was enough to age?. Because I was explored every Internet gambling here that almost didn't require uploading an ID card. A child could be lying by clicking correct sign under the register box.
Have tried this when I'm still young. Not in a gambling website though but in a specific website where you will just put a check saying that you are 18 years old and then you can register now.
Internet is full of lies and so is that thing as well. You might see kids gambling already online and most of the gambling websites right now doesn't require KYC especially in crypto-based gambling sites though there are some gambling sites that are in your country that will require KYC. The website owner only knows that you are 18 or above if they will require KYC to you as a user.
3890  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: February 26, 2022, 02:00:07 PM
He is not an NBA player anymore and though he played many seasons in the NBA but his stats is not something be worried of if you are on the other teams.
We can check his entire basketball record ; https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/m/muhamsh01.html

I need to see his first game to decide and conclude if he can really be a big thing for the team.

For sure, SMB are happy but what is written in the paper could be different in the actual game, so let's see.
I'm a SMB fan but I don't know what to say with the import exchange that they did. Not happy though.
Johnson played well in their last games and he put up huge points in their wins so I don't know the reason why they need to change imports where the chemistry is already there. Just because he is an ex-NBA player that's why they changed Johnson?

I agree with what you said that lets see how he will perform in maybe his first 2 games before judging if he is a good fit for the team or not. Lets not set aside too that he also got an ACL tear in 2019 causing him to be waived in the CBA. I'm not saying that he might get it again but there is still a chance (hope not though). I'll watch his debut game tomorrow against the top-seeded Magnolia. If they defeated them then maybe we can say that he is better than Johnson. He is a legitimate scorer when he is playing in CBA though and there is one season where he averages almost 30 PPG.

Hello i had bought link for 1400euros for price about 31euros per link and now its about 10 euros per link
i wonder should i buy more link or should i go to a safer choise like bitcoin ? or get some ada with 0.67euro per ada ? ada price ATH ada was like 2.5 euro per ada ...

every though is welcome!!! i just wonder what is the wiser choise of these 3 coins ada link and btc
Just buy other coins like Bitcoin or Cardano or Ethereum or even Binance Coin. Anything that is on the top right now is a good coin to buy.

There is nothing wrong in putting your eggs in one basket but it is more risky than diversifying your funds. I've experienced that as well. I bought a coin and suddenly it went down and my initial investment on that coin went down at least 50%. I just held it and kept buying other coins because I believe in diversification. After some time holding it, it managed to go up again and luckily I sold it in profit though I held it for a long time though. Still, I would prefer buying other coins than putting your money into a single coin only.
3892  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: February 26, 2022, 07:32:04 AM
^ Harden lacking two rebounds for a triple double but yeah, his debut game as a Sixer was more than I expected. I also did not expect Doc to give him a lot of playing time especially after coming from an injury. Anyway, I'm glad it turned out good for them. They will most likely win again in their next game against the Knicks and cover spreads like -10.5.
That was a good debut of James Harden, he is in a double-double and very efficient with 7/12 shooting, I guess Harden could really be a great partner of Embiid and hopefully, they'll continue to create good chemistry for consistency. Didn't expect that from Harden to be honest.
One game isn't enough to say that he is a great partner to Embiid but his debut game is an impressive one.
Almost a triple double. Its almost the same stats as when he is still in Brooklyn. He isn't only focusing on scoring anymore but more on passing as well.

Well, hoping for Harden for the best and not to re-injure his hamstring again because playoffs are near already. The 76ers really is a strong team when Harden is playing but without him, I think they will be having a hard time when playoff comes.

January 9th. That was the last time the Phoenix Suns lost in their home and now against the Pelicans. Not having Chris Paul put a big toll on them.
With no one to bring back their composure at both ends of the floor, they will be having a difficult time winning their games.
Booker is trying too much, I think he needs to trust his teammates more like what CP3 does. "Ball hog" that's what I saw as I watched the game and they are not that type of a team because they mostly rely on rotation and transition plays. The number of fouls should also be controlled.
33/41 Free throws made by the Pelicans because of the high number of fouls made by the Suns.


Just remember that it was CP3 who made the team better, without him the team will really struggle. Give them time to reflect on their mistakes, for sure they'll bounce back in their next game as the Suns overall are still a great team, fun to watch and my 2nd favorite in the West.
This has been the problem of CP3 ever since. When they needed him the most, he gets injured.
Well, they are in a good spot still since they are at the top but I don't think that they can hold it even though they are 6 games above the Warriors. Fulfilling what Paul is doing will be hard. You don't have a passer, a floor general and a great shooter as well. I agree though that lets give them some time to adjust with this. I don't think that the Suns will just take this loss for granted and will not adjust things.
3893  Economy / Economics / Re: Russia - Ukraine | War imminent? on: February 26, 2022, 03:57:41 AM
As at recent, i heard the US sent about 7000 soldiers and am sure its has nothing to impact on the 100,000 soldiers Russia has mounted while the NATO combined forces too can sound a little significant but only if China could join the war against Russia is when i think more hope can be emancipated, but even as at now, China remain mute about the issue. I hope at the end it will cost Russia than it will pays them for haven taken such a move.
I actually hope that both countries can contain their emotions more to avoid a lot of destruction on both sides, from some media that I read, now more than 300 people have become victims of the Russian invasion and most of them are civilians. I think if NATO also joins ukraine of course the war will get worse in my opinion, even though nato has a desire to help ukraine but still i doubt if they do not have their own interests in this matter, I think it is time for the UN to act to establish dialogue between the two countries and at least the UN can stop a bigger war from happening.

Correct me but I don't think that NATO will interfere with what is happening right now because they aren't in a position to do it.
Ukraine isn't a member of NATO so why they will try to help them? I mean I don't understand why will they help a country that they aren't allied at first place.

I've watched a video saying that US will not interfere with what is happening but they already gave sanctions to Russia. If NATO will involve themselves in this war, then it will be a disaster because more countries will try and join the war and we know what will happen next after it so its better if they will just remain silent. We already know what will happen. We know what are the capabilities of Russians with regards to war. They are one of the top if not the top in terms of military forces. Still, its very sad to see that people whether civilians or soldiers are dying because of war. In a war, death is inevitable that is why there are no benefits in a war  Cry.

Blackwater losing streak is not good at all, it will hard to get sponsors for them because of their bad records and if the owners is experiencing a big loss, selling the team should be the last option. They must reset their whole system and look for a better strategy, 26 losing streak could be worst in PBA history, they are already holding this title.
Their losing streak will probably a streak that no one can ever break maybe in the next decades.
Who in the hell wants to have a lose more than at least 20+ for example? No one wants to have that losing streak. They tried to sell their franchise in 2020 but because it was the start of the pandemic, nobody tried to buy it but maybe they will try and sell it again after this season. Yes their past bad records is a hinder for them to sell the franchise that easy but if they don't really like joining the PBA already then they have no choice.

They have a good players as well but I don't understand why they are not working as a team, they can win a game against the other team, maybe they are luck of confidence though the skills are there but still they need to work on that problem and focus on every game one at a time.
They maybe have good players but not enough to get at least one win.
Who are the good players in their team? Most of them are just average players and some are old ones. Its just very sad to see that a team are continuously losing consecutive times but maybe this just shows that the team doesn't have any interest in the league anymore. They've shown it already when the owner announced that he wants to sell it. That alone is enough to say that the interest isn't there anymore. I'm pretty sure that they will sell their franchise after this season or maybe after next season.

Still, I'm waiting for which team will lost to this Blackwater team. I'm very excited to see it Cheesy.
3895  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: February 25, 2022, 12:10:18 PM
Looks like Blackwater's losing streak will still be active tonight, they are currently playing against Ginebra and the lead of Ginebra is very huge, for sure Blackwater won't be able to have a huge comeback in the 4th quarter.

Anyone knows the total losing streak of Blackwater already?
They're sitting at 26 as of this moment and with the game already over against Ginebra, it already is 27.

Well, other teams don't want to get defeated by Blackwater because it might be shameful for them for some reasons. Now the Blackwater are 0-8 after this game and they only have 3 games left this season. I don't think that the Blackwater will get at least one win again against other teams with how they are playing right now and their current roster. I'm thinking maybe they will be the next one to leave the league after Alaska don't they?  Huh Huh

No doubtful, bounty campaigns draws a ton of attention to your community and enlighten potential investors about your project. But at the long run, is this development sustainable? Is it reliable enough to grow your project?
It isn't as reliable as what you and others are thinking but it is one of the cheapest form of advertising your projects.
I've seen many bounty campaigns here already and some of them became successful because of it or well it is one of the reasons why they become successful. Although there are some who are successful, most of them didn't end up well for some reasons.

Relying on bounty campaign alone in growing up your community isn't good. In the end, even though you have a successful bounty campaign it will still depend on how the people and investors sees the project. If they see it helpful to them then they will be interested, curious and might invest into it. If people sees that there are some developments into the project then they will invest into it. Growing a community is one of the hardest parts of starting a new project.

If the United States goes to war with Russia, more allies like China and Iran will definitely come to Russia's aid, and that means starting a world war! Bitcoin has never been in a world war and we do not know how it will react to this situation!
That is what I'm curious about it but if we will base on the second World War, the stocks at that time made a huge drop and there is a chance that it might happen again this time if a world war happens again (hope not) and since the price movement of stocks and crypto are correlated with each other then we might assume that crypto alongside stocks will go down as well.

Now with regards to a possible WWIII, I don't think that it will happen and I don't think that other countries will try and help Ukraine since they aren't a member of NATO.

Well, hours just after Putin declared war on Ukraine everything dropped including the crypto market and it went down as low as $35,000.
It went below that price but went back above it a few hours after and now recovered from the price where it was before the announcement has said.

With what happened, I'm not expecting Bitcoin to go $30,000 at least in the short term unless this Russia-Ukraine war will stay for a longer period of time. This war might cause a domino effect negatively. Other countries will respond to what is happening and it might affect the prices of different markets including crypto.

Just do DCA and you're done.

Why create NFT's? Why build DAPPS? Why create tokens? Why doing all of it when you can just buy a token at the top most likely and then hold it and do nothing. Why giving yourself a hard time doing this things when there are some other ways to get profit when everything is at its lowest point?
3900  Economy / Speculation / Re: Crypto prices crash as threat of war looms on: February 25, 2022, 06:50:47 AM
The war has already begun. Today at 4-30 Putin announced an attack on Ukraine. Ukraine is attacked not only from the border of Russia, but also of Belarus. Lukashenka completely fell under Putin. Explosions are heard in many cities of Ukraine, airfields are burning. Five Russian planes and a helicopter have already been reported shot down. The armed forces of Ukraine are already well armed and motivated. This will be the beginning of the end of the Putin regime. He breaks his teeth about Ukraine.
Yes, the cryptocurrency has fallen in price a lot now.
The Russians attack Ukraine already. I don't know what will the US and other countries will be doing with this but.. I just hope for the Ukrainian people to be safe.
Just finished reading the news. But upon reading it all from different sources why do I feel like someone is aggregating it more. It even gave me the idea that Ukrainian foreign minister is feeding lies. I don't know. Must be my own imaginative theory.
Stocks are down, Dollar went up and so does gold. What the heck is happening? Anyway, recent news came out about triggering of Article 4. Here it is.
Quote
“The Parties will consult together whenever, in the opinion of any of them, the territorial integrity, political independence or security of any of the Parties is threatened,” Article 4 of The North Atlantic Treaty says.
Some of NATO's eastern countries have trigged Article 4
I wish this will end in a peaceful way.

We all want to end this peacefully because we are still in pandemic and many people are still having problem with other important things to survive like food and job. And now, this war will add to the burden of their people. Is it the 'amour propre' that led Putin to resort to this decision? Why is Putin so sensitive with Ukraine's decision when it comes to participation in NATO? He has his own country to take care of, don't meddle in someone else's country's decisions.
Correct me but Putin doesn't want NATO at all and if Ukraine will join the NATO, they can easily strike the Russia since it is only a few miles away from their country.
Another reason that I think is that Putin doesn't want Ukraine to join NATO because he wants Ukraine to be under him. Well, nothing new when it comes to a dictator like him. Russia will benefit more from Ukraine that is why he wants Ukraine to be under him but Ukraine doesn't want it and want to be a democratic country.
