The data that you could definitely go look for would be the minimum salary and car prices and house prices and school prices. If you look at food prices they are somehow better, they grew lesser than the inflation so right now buying a gallon of milk today is cheaper than buying a gallong of milk 50 years ago, maybe not in price but it is definitely better versus inflation.

However if you look at someone who worked a minimum salary regular mcdonalds work, look at a house 50 years ago and today, look at a brand new car price and today, and look at how much college cost 50 years ago and today, you can see the differences in these things that basically doesn't even come close to inflation rates that was given. Drop these into understandable levels, just these three (house+car+school) and you get yourself a better world. Healthcare was always expensive, that needs something else, I wouldn't know what but something else.
4062  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BNB Holders - What do you do with your BNB? on: November 05, 2020, 08:59:06 PM
Do you guys all buy it because you think it will have a great future? I mean sure we are talking about "holders" but isn't the question a bit weird with first half and then the second half? If you are a bnb "holder" that means you are holding your bnb for a future profit, that is literally what a holder is, if you are asking "what do you do with your bnb" that means you have to do something with it and if you are doing something with it that means you can't hold it but can only use it or trade it.

This is the reason why I am not sure who this question goes to, if you are asking about the holders they are holding but if you asking to people who use it, we use it. I personally buy BNB time to time in order to cover my trading fee's, it is helpful that it is cheaper to use bnb if I want to.

I think it is not about "getting close" or anything like that, people who got excited about this news (including me) didn't get excited because we think 2.0 will be tomorrow, we know that it could take a long time, it could be as much as 2022 before it happens which means we are going to have to wait a loooong time before 2.0 is a reality and we know that.

What made everyone involved so excited was not the time period and getting closer deal, it was the fact that it is worked on and reached to a new level, that means we are done with major parts of the upgrade and that excites us, obviously we are going to wait awhile but that doesn't change the fact that we are now one step closer and that means something to us. Every single improvement matters right now in something that we have waited for years, even a slight light on it would make us feel at more ease at this point.

^The funny part about what Trump was trying to do ; he tried to stop Michigan count because "voter fraud!!" but he wanted Arizona and Nevada to be keep counted. If everything ends like this, he loses, if there is continuation, he loses, there is no scenario where he can win anymore.

Plus, no matter how many times you count the ballots again and again, you are not closing that gap, which means either he wins with the late arrival ballots becoming in favor of him in one state, or he loses, there is no path to victory on the finished states. In any case, the real trouble begins when everything is settled and Trump goes to supreme court, dude literally appointed his own puppets there and even if it is something illegal thing to do, when supreme courts deems it legal, they could do anything that would help them win.

We obviously have to wait until the result is finalised before we can pay it out. Otherwise, if the result was overturned we would have to pay out twice.
If I remember correctly, 2000 elections were decided officially in like ... December? So, it can take a whole lot of while before it could be decided, I would say people who wagered on this election should be patient because even if we do know the unofficial results give or take and even if it takes a while for just the unofficial ones are decided (looking at you Nevada) we will probably not get an official one anytime soon.

Since the results will "most probably" be like 270-268 and very close, there will be a lot of recounts, lawsuits and many other things thrown by the Trump team, and there is a big possibility that nothing will change in the end and still will lead to same results but until the courts take the case and makes a decision it will be at least another month of waiting for the official results.
4066  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Do not trade Alts with BTC these days, You will just lose on: November 05, 2020, 08:02:44 AM
As BTC hitting its ATH, the prices of alts are dumping even if it is BNB or any other coin whichever was stable in the last months.
This is not something new, we are experiencing for the first time; if you have enough experienced then this must be the right time to go for shorting altcoins against BTC; but unfortunately most exchanges are not supporting that kind of trading still you need to do it on your own like you may sell your altcoins stash and then need to buy back at lower price levels.

I believe when bitcoin goes on a bull trend, altcoins will follow so trading with altcoins can still be profitable but yes make sure you have Bitcoin on your holdings.
Yeah, it will take time for altcoins to follow bitcoin's trend but immediately when bitcoin is entering into bull mode, usually altcoins face downfall to maintain equivalent USD value. Yes, if you have enough BTCs then you may buy altcoins at its every support levels.

I'd say now would be a pretty smart time to be buying those good ones, i.e., while their price is relatively low.
This needs intensive analysis so that you can easily multiply your BTCs in comparatively more quicker time. I do buy reputed altcoins at every resistance levels of bitcoins; one simple trick I do follow to maximize my BTC holding.
4067  Economy / Exchanges / Re: What is the best cryptocurrency exchange for beginners on: November 04, 2020, 07:28:56 PM
There cannot be any big differences for beginners from rest of crypto people hence all the best exchanges are good to go with even in the beginning days. I have not come across an exchange which is built for beginners of crypto space. All the exchanges are being built for traders and the features are usually focusing the ease-to-use for a trader's perspective.

Moreover, there cannot be any safe-heaven like exchange which will never let you commit a mistake because you are just a beginner in the crypto space. You must feel your responsibilities when you are touching a crypto exchange. If you feel that you are not having enough experience for an exchange then you must wait until you gain knowledge and experiences.

All I mean, there cannot a newbie-friendly exchange for problem-free trading or built by having newbies in mind. When you come to trading, your experience is least bothered.

Even if you want to earn daily, you could still hold your bitcoin, you could hold it on places that gives you interest.

Obviously some places give insane returns that looks fake and I do not believe them, but there are also legit places that gives a proper return as well. I for one love freebitco.in which gives a steady return of yearly 4% for your bitcoin which is a lot, and I think that is quite great that they allow you to make it on bitcoin and not dollars.

This is the reason why I think it is quite important that we end up with picking the right one and not one of those scammy looking ones. After that, your path to daily income is simple, just collect that if you want to, or just ignore it and let it grow even bigger because the longer you keep it there the more interest you get with the earnings.
4069  Economy / Speculation / Re: history loves repeating itself. the only question is when! on: November 04, 2020, 09:35:49 AM
2021 suppose to be the year where everything great happens, it was like that way before the pandemic and it was seen like that even before there was any economical downfall in the world. The reason why it was seen like that was the 4 year cycle deal, during 2013 it was lower a bit, on 2014 it went up, in 2015 it crashed in 2016 it went stable and a bit up, in 2017 it was normal actually but on the last days it went up, and we did the same thing now for the past 3 years once again.

This means either by the end of this year like 2017 suggested or maybe start of 2018 with the halving and all and the cycle, we should be basically going up, that is at least what the history tells us, will it happen? I wouldn't know but it definitely does look like that for time being.
4070  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is bitcoin cross $15k in end of 2020 on: November 04, 2020, 08:26:34 AM
We are not looking awesome right now, we tried to break over $14k and managed it for a tiny period and went down, I was happy with the $13.8k or even $13.6k levels but we are now at $13.4k, which is a bit worrying to me. If the price reached to $14k and broke over it and corrected itself to $13.4k that would have been normal, because there needs to be a correction whenever we reach to a new high for a period and $14k was a new high for like past 2.5 years or so, which is why going down was something I totally understand.

However what I do not understand properly was the fact that bitcoin went back to $13.8k first and not $13.4k , after that it went down a bit more and a bit more and basically just slowly went down instead of correcting right away. Does that mean we stop now, or will it continue to slowly go down?
4071  Economy / Gambling / Re: ♨️🎲 WINDICE.io 🎲 Contests 🏆 TvT 🔰 Progressive Faucet💰 Jackpots 🎁❤ on: November 04, 2020, 06:48:24 AM
As it appears, you can buy them when you go to "shop" (hover cursor to your profile to see it) with BTC. You can also use them to buy experience points to rank up or to change your windice nickname.
Back in the day most casinos had faucets and they were giving that away so that you could gamble on their websites a bit and when you lose that money you would deposit some more from your own money in order to make more wagers and have fun.

Nowadays that is gone and casinos just print their own coins, sure there are some with faucets as we know but the coin that casinos build are basically the same reason why casinos had faucets 5 years ago. You come in, you do not know the website, you want to check it out but you do not want to deposit anything just yet, so you end up with just using their own created coins to test and see what you can do in the website and if you like the demo tour with those coins you end up with depositing real money as well. Sort of like a test run deal for casinos.

^I would like to point out that Trump managed something that nobody assumed he would, he won at the swing states by a big margin and not within margin of error and that is the difference between 2016 and today. People keep saying that this resembles 2016 where people assumed Hillary would won but Trump won, first of all this time around Trump had a bigger loss possibility in almost all polls, from +4 or so on Hillary last time, we have moved as much as +12 to Biden (and around +8 or so on last days) which means everyone assumed Hillary could have lost, that was a possibility and difference wasn't major, however when it comes down to Biden everyone assumed it was either a regular win for Biden or a landslide win for Biden, yet Trump not only leads those swing states, but also has a HUGE lead in them as well.
4073  Economy / Speculation / Re: Analysis of recent Bitcoin fluctuations on: November 03, 2020, 03:26:15 PM
Day trading never works well, I’ve seen so many of that type come & go after getting REKT over the years.
Just HODL your bitcoin’s at least until the end of next year, I guarantee you’ll make far more $ doing that than trying to trade.

Day trading is also making some other traders good profit. These all depends on the pattern of the way you learn it. Day trading is for traders who enjoy being on the system and have the time to monitor the running trade to know the profit time. Hodling also is good but for a long time.
Day trading "never" works well is a bit stretch. Of course it could work well depending on the situation, there are tons of people who make their profit from day trading too, you could pick any few coins you want and you can master the prices of those coins and instead of trying to profit from ups and downs you could just focus on the spread and trying to make profit from that alone and still come out profitable.

However I can't say it is "always" profitable neither, it is not always profitable and you could end up losing money as well, you could get in with the hopes of getting out in minutes and it could crash so the price will be lower. So, there is nothing you can do to keep focusing on the one way or another, it could be profitable some times and it could be losing some other times, it always changes from situation to situation.
4074  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is Ethereum Classic undervalued? on: November 02, 2020, 09:28:15 PM
Unfortunately we could consider it as much gone as possible, I know people think that it is possible for ETC to make a comeback but like you guys said it is impossible after all these 51% attacks. It is great that you changed your mind abiky because the price is not going anywhere, normally I understand the logic but it doesn't apply here.

If I saw a coin have a problem and if I see it as a onetime thing and not a long term problem and the price plummets a lot, I would get in as well thinking it is undervalued since it was a onetime problem and it will recover and go back to old days. This idea doesn't work in ETC because it doesn't have a path to recovery, sure some people may work on it but it is an abondened project that is destined for more 51% attacks in the future.
4075  Economy / Speculation / Re: Top 5 reasons I see $100k in next 2 years on: November 02, 2020, 10:00:10 AM
100k itself is very high price and surely it will fall many times reaching their if it ever reaches at that price. Because 2017 after reaching around 20k and then the way it crashed and took years before reaching 14k and now let us see when it can reach 20k next and from top when it happens to fall then how much time it will take to recovery will give us an idea if we can see price above 50k as well o not.
The price doesn't need to crash all that easily next time it reaches 20k, it was just that one time and I am sure next time will not be the same. What people do not consider when talking about the ATH price is the fact that just a few months ago price was 1-3k range, the year started with 700 dollars per bitcoin, literally under 1k and at the peak it was 20k.

This caused a lot of people to have a lot of money, there were millions of people all around the world who got bitcoin under 10k and sold it above 15k in just few months, there was a rush towards selling everyone's bitcoin whenever they can. The difference today is that we have been at these prices for a long time, people who wants to buy already bought and people who wants to sell already sold, going to 20k wouldn't be a sudden shock to us anymore.
4076  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: During Bitcoin Block Halving Cryptocurrency Prices are expected to be.. on: October 31, 2020, 06:28:14 PM
We already had the halving? Why are we talking about halving like it is something that will happen and not something that has already happened? Did I see a dream? Didn't halving happened in may? Something like 10th if I am not wrong? I do not get why we are talking about halving and what is going to happen with the altcoins after the halving like we are not already 6 months into the halving already?

Sure it could still have some impact, after all there is a 12 million dollars PER DAY not mined and that is something great but it is really not like it is going skyrocket or plummet at this point, whatever happened already happened and all the price is calculated into it, from now on it could only have a gradual affect and not something that would be sudden and shocking at all.
4077  Economy / Speculation / Re: What will happen next if the resistance breaks? on: October 31, 2020, 04:42:46 PM
The only reason why bitcoin goes up is literally demand, we are not producing anything, we are not used in anything neither, we are just a currency and that's it, it is not a product.

So, the only way bitcoin could ever come up is if there is more bitcoins bought on the market than sold, which causes people to buy more expensive increasing the price since the sellers are not willing to sell any cheaper, that is supply/demand 101 and that is the only thing in crypto market that drives the price; which means with all these paypal and all these other stuff that happened this week, price went up because there were more people who wanted to buy than who wanted to sell.

Resistance points are there to show people where the common "this is good enough to take out my profit" levels are but when you break over them, it is easy to go higher and higher.

Better put the focus the development on their current games.

Considering adding sportsbetting will have a time soon.
I never intended to mean it like never look at sportsbooks neither, if wolf.bet wants to add anything they could add anything in the future, or tomorrow if they feel like they are ready, it is all depending on when they want to.

I just wanted to mean, they have an AMAZING name, wolf.bet is a unique and cool looking name with absolutely no connection to any game at all, many places have names like somethingdice.com thisisdice.com and stuff like that where it has dice in it and they still add other games anyway, wolf.bet is a name that could have ALL casino games you can imagine from simplest dice to most complex games.

All I am saying is, when you are a casino it takes a while to adjust everything, there are whales who lose big but there are ones who win big, it is not a steady stream of income, but when you have that base, they could slowly work over a decade to add games, there is no rush.
4079  Economy / Economics / Re: Iran accepting cryptocurrencies to avoid US Dollar on: October 31, 2020, 02:40:06 PM
It is not shocking that crypto could be used for legal loopholes like this. Humanity started using bitcoin for drug dealing looong before they did anything else with it, you could have bought weed with bitcoin and ship it anywhere in the world inside a book for years before people looked at bitcoin and said "maybe I should buy and hold this to make a profit".

Iran is doing national level of this, they are not doing anything illegal in the sense of drug dealing, but sanctions by USA is something they can't overcome with dollars or anything else, so instead they could use crypto to overcome that and not like USA could sanction crypto, it has no nationality which shows the world that small time drug dealers could use it for illegal stuff but as you can see whole governments can do that too.
4080  Economy / Economics / Re: Better Days ahead for the economy of developing countries in Africa on: October 31, 2020, 12:31:20 PM
There is a lot more for Africa to recover from compared to just money. The sad part about Africa (and not just Nigeria, I mean all of Africa) is that you can spend 10 trillion dollars tomorrow and you are not going to suddenly make it like Europe, you can spend 100 trillion or even more and you won't have that, what they need is not sudden influx of money but more about building from what they have into something much bigger over long period of time and not just financially neither.

It is a continent ridden with dictators in the past (and maybe even today) that has been struck by a lot of trouble environmentally as well with drought as well, so it is going to take a loooong time before they can recover, you can have president of everything be African and it will still take decades of carefully planned improvement in the region to get it to a higher standard of living.
