Corona Virus effect more than 200 country economies  and also effect crypto industry. prices of coins dump quickly its a chance for new users.
The dump is already over, bitcoin is now starting to rise, its' been consistent for 2 days already I guess, and good news is that bitcoin already hit $7000 today. what's next? of course people will expect another pump as most eyes are in crypto now since stocks are falling.

Quote
i think crypto industry grow upward quickly.
It's good to see it slowly but having a consistent growth, that way we can avoid seeing another big dump.

Yes, what you're saying is right. I agree that but at least we can try to get immunity from consuming healthy food and live healthy so the virus cannot break into our body. By staying at home can help us to prevent the spreading of the virus, and I think every people in every country can do that.
We can do that but with the support of our government, if they can provide everything that we need, then that strategy would be helpful.
this is the time also to see if the government we have is corrupt or not, because if not, they should not be having a difficulty in providing our needs on a timely manner.

We help ourselves, the doctor help the patient, and we can reduce the infected people by the virus. We also forced by nature to live healthy by this virus because if we see in the big cities and growing cities, healthy lives do not become the main thing.

All of this will fall on how our leader will manage the situation, that's why we choose a leader because we believe in him or his administration.
We can do our little contribution but it's still better if the rules will be strict so violators will be reduce.
4103  Economy / Speculation / Re: COVID-19 - The major reason for the current fall of Bitcoin on: April 03, 2020, 11:16:32 AM
you have already pointed everything that connect from Corona pandemic to the falling market because i can feel what you have said.

i also sold some Bitcoin recently but not because of panic instead because of short income because now i cannot accept sidelines to make extra income.
In order to survive, you have to do everything but not all people are doing the same, big portion of the investors are here for real business, they don't mix their personal from their investment, so they can withstand even if the market will dump temporarily.

the family is spending more now as all is staying in house and doing nothing but spending.
I think it's the opposite, based on my experience, I have less expenses now as I gamble less and I could not go outside to entertain myself and every time I like to entertainment, I spend money. At home now, all we will take care is only our needs.
4104  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: April 03, 2020, 10:59:35 AM
As of now, US have 245000 people infected with covid, do you think it's still right to continue the entertainment while people are suffering?
The answer is simple. Stop and focus on healing and lowering the case. Their not gonna benefit out of this.
Hopefully NBA will not give any hope that they'll resume the season so people will not expect and people will think they sympathize on the situation.


On the other hand,

The uprise of players and NBA personnel has growing immensely too. Latest addition was James Dolan that has been confirmed positive on Corona virus. Totalling of 14 confirmed cases. Wow such high numbers would just means a long gap for another season.


The coronavirus pandemic has made its way through the NBA, with 14 confirmed cases and five players announcing their positive COVID-19 tests. On Saturday, the New York Knicks added to the NBA tally by confirming that Madison Square Garden Company Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer James Dolan has contracted the coronavirus.

Some of the players and even coaches and staff should really observed social distancin to avoid such addition to the currenr confirm figures.

This is now the logo of NBA.. (captured from: Facebook)



With the big number of people infected in US, it's not impossible that it will increase more, but these people can afford good medication, so just like the NBA players who were cured, they will surely be cured soon too.
4105  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: April 03, 2020, 10:32:06 AM

When you are putting players in Las Vegas and making them play there to finish the league, you are not just putting players there, you are putting coaches, assistant coaches, floor moppers, broadcasters, doctors and many other people there as well, even if there is nobody watching live there in the arena. This is why I think it is quite risky. Could it be done? Sure it could be, but is it really the solution we are looking for? It feels like it wouldn't be fun at all and just would be "lets get this over with already" type of situation which doesn't really worth all the risks involved if you ask me.


Exactly, the kind of analogy I'm looking for. Just like what I have mentioned in my previous comment in this thread, I'm thinking resuming with their business ain't a good idea.
Doctors are essentially needed to the public to combat the virus, than being in a business in this dire situation.
This might be labeled as a selfish act from the NBA by holding some medical experts to continue their business amidst the growing number of covid cases in america.
Yeah right, those doctors and nurses shouldn't be privatize more people are in need of those services and if NBA will drag them since they will
reopen the season it's not appropriate.
Every help for the people should be provided as it can bring life to every people around..

It's a matter of priority now, and the US are surely in need of doctor and nurses to fight the covid-19.
They have no assurance as to when the increase of infection will stop, why would the private organization would not understand that, instead of helping the government, they are just thinking of their personal interest. As of now, US have 245000 people infected with covid, do you think it's still right to continue the entertainment while people are suffering?
4106  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How can I earn money during coronavirus? Is it possible by crypto coins? on: April 03, 2020, 07:13:22 AM
Earning online in Crypto market is possible in all situation the one and major condition is you have an Internet connection and you have time and the most important you are healthy. Then make a plan and do a task like bounties, trading in good coins and increase your social media.
When we say earn, most of the time we try to work online, and this is possible even if we are quarantine at home.
In this crypto market, it's getting bigger and there are still a lot of opportunities here, and even this forum, you can use this as your way to find that opportunity to earn, just make things very simple, learn from it and be a crypto enthusiast.

Bounty campaign are divided in different task, you can try to explore what task you can do and you are comfortable of doing, sometimes you can find a good campaign that will give you a good reward.
4107  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading on DEX's - What's your experience? on: April 03, 2020, 06:41:02 AM
I have not been trading with DEX for awhile now, I was only active during the time when the market is bullish or prior to that, 2017 and before to be exact. My favorite was Etherdelata, then when the site was compromise, I shift to IDEX and I love it even more, the only problem now is there are very low volume in DEX so I'll just have to wait for another altcoins season.
4108  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Have you received coins or tokens that you forgot that you promoted on: April 03, 2020, 05:55:50 AM
OP we're opposite, I can still remember where I got my tokens but I choose to forget them lol. For me they are all sh*tcoins that's why I choose to forget them for good. But ahh! I remember something Grin. As far as I remember, I think I left few Clams on my Coinomi account but I'm still wondering where did I get it Huh. Nah! They are useless anyway so I don't mind.

Of the number of bounty campaign we have participated in the past and some of them delay the distribution, it's possible that we will receive a token that from a project that we already have forgotten, some of us just stop looking at our portfolio and update on the bounty campaign we have participated in the past, so its possible, but the thing is though we have the token, we still can't sell it at a good price.
4109  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETH might go down below 80$ on: April 03, 2020, 05:17:50 AM
for today ETH has grown more than 10%.

I'm thinking this could be because of the stimulus package that is being given by governments to her citizens, maybe some are investing into their hodling. I guess it shows more confidence that things are starting to take normal shape.

The market is in a good shape now, but there is always that threat that anytime it could dump since we know what is going on to the world now.
I hope crypto will not really be affected and it will not be fully corrected with the struggle the overall market is experiencing now.
4110  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is gambling a threat or fun? on: April 02, 2020, 12:41:21 PM
Because I like to play gambling, I have entered several sites. And gambling is fun in personal experience, because by gambling I can make money with the victory that I experienced. Although sometimes losing more than winning, it's really fun.
Gambling is really entertaining plus the fact that there's a money involve makes it more exciting.
It's not a plush as we don't call it gambling if there is no money involve, you risk your money and your could either win or lose, there is a risk.

However not all gamblers are treating it the way it supposed to be because some people are playing to double their money or to become rich. Gambling can be a good way to entertain ourselves but it can also ruin someone's lives if the particular gambler became addicted.
To expect or to hope to become rich is not a bad thing, but gamblers needs to understand that it's not easy as they think, they need to be realistic and beat the percentage that only few of the gambler who aim to be rich became successful.

Choosing the game is vital, if you are fan with sports, you do sports betting and your aim is to grow by improving your skills and consider it as your passion, that way you'll always love what you do and you'll be inspired.
4111  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling and health 🤕symptoms on: April 02, 2020, 12:29:57 PM
People always relate gambling and addiction, wherein not all gamblers are addicts, and not all addicts are gamblers, ad hominem mates.
That's what people think who have no idea what really is gambling.
it's like banning gambling in general because it makes people addicted, where infact only few gamblers are addicted.
They are eliminating the opportunity of the responsible gamblers who are having fun and the business to grow.

If the person is having a health issues that can possibly affected by his  gambling addiction well in that case, that gambler is addict in terms of playing he needed to be rehab and get consult from the psych so that his mindset will be corrected and also, he can play again with a healthy body and mind.
Gambling addict could possibly destroy their body and their mind, that's one of the biggest risk, some people die due to lack of sleep and has no peace of mind.
4112  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why people are calling projects as scam when they are in a bear market? on: April 02, 2020, 12:00:25 PM
Different strokes for different folks unfortunately, while some people can handle the period of bear market others can not, that is why we have different view and opinion,
Talking about the different strokes and folks. There are some people in the crypto sphere who'll never understand how crypto works and the characteristics that affect the price of the market because they are always after profit not been bother about the scheme itself. However, we also have something where the matter are raised by the bounty hunters cause the project team are not been honest.
We can't expect that all of them will understand, of course there are people who enter here without enough knowledge and they usually are the ones who loss money for the knowledgeable to be profitable, that's normal, it's a fair life in crypto, but eventually they'll learn, we feel them when we are still a newbie and we got to aggressive investing in crypto thinking things are just simple and easy.
4113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling sports predictions on: April 02, 2020, 11:38:26 AM
Im afraid it's the only strategy you could do and that's researching the team past gameplays and history. But you could innovate it, like for example programming an AI or Bot to make calculated guess where the program itself will do the grunt work for you to find the best pick in Sports bet. I've seen this done by a programmer in youtube.
Sports betting when capping games needs your personal analysis, and you can't design a system that will just analysis the limited information you will feed, it's important to also understand on what team will get the public bet and the sharp money as that is very important in determining who will win and if games will be rig or not,.. yes, you read it right, I believe sports can be rig and you can't make a automatic system to determine which team do you think will win.
Because Sports betting needs bettors to be Knowledgeable to succeed.

Of course some gamblers will say it is about Luck but if you Know that team and how they Played?this is more advantage to take a win each game.
First they need to understand the game, and to understand that knowing the game is not enough to win, they should dig dipper to improve their strategy, they can't be too complacent and feel they figure out how to win as they need to be updated and improve with the new strategy as necessary.


actually since the time i starts betting in sports i concentrate to understand how  the game goes and how each players of the team manage to play together winning the games.

You'll feel the entertainment more when you are loving what you are doing and you think you have a chance win consistently in the long run.
4114  Economy / Speculation / Re: HODL HODL HODL...AND BUY MORE on: April 01, 2020, 11:35:05 AM

I myself will always grab the bitcoins and other some altcoin whenever the price drops and selling them at higher prices. Holding long term is always the best option because it might give higher profits.
When we say long term, it's not forever, we have to set a specific period or a time range.
well depends on the HODLERS mate because like those early adopters that holds their currency until 2017,yeah that is not forever but at least longer than what we can do now.

putting specific period of time is for me a NO mate because the volatile market will not be friendly at all time,better Put specific target price so maybe thats the safest we can do.

Putting a target seems more doable, as you can really sell with a profit, but the question here is when will your target will be seen.
First thing that needs to be done in setting a target is a target should be realistic, otherwise, this would be tantamount to holding forever as well.

I was surprise paper token surpass bitcoin in the number 1 ranking. lol..
Happy April fools day everyone, it seems like our April fools day now is not as fan as the last year, covid-19 did that to us, blame it to the virus.
4117  Economy / Speculation / Re: HODL HODL HODL...AND BUY MORE on: April 01, 2020, 07:47:56 AM
Well, I don't like telling other people what to.do, everyone needs to make decision for himself.
Different people have different goals with Bitcoin, everyone of them made purchase in different time, maybe someone needs money or other plans.
That's somehow true, but for me as an investor, I would advise everyone to hold bitcoin for long term, and other good altcoins.
Also, for me, I believe that we should have investment for short term and long term, so we will not be bored and we can take profit at a short period of time also.

For me the key is balance between holding and spending, I don't see much sense for Bitcoin just to sit idle in some wallet, endlessly. And of course, every situation when the price is favourable is the good opportunity to enlarge your portfolio.
Spending means not investing to me, so I don't consider it as part of the strategy to invest or to trade.
Those two should be separated so it will not affect each other.
4118  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum in 5 years on: April 01, 2020, 07:16:12 AM
...and this time around people will be more matured so they'll not dump right away ...

Haha! That's a good one!

This is going to happen, so if we ever think that once there is bull run and we dump again, forget that, instead, trust the process as soon we will be going to a bullish market, this pandemic will end and crypto will start to boom, bitcoin will rise, ETH will follow, that's the usual trend, nothing could break that.
4119  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: COVID-19 and its effect in Gambling World on: April 01, 2020, 04:35:24 AM
However, far from all countries, people adhere not only to recommendations but also do not comply with quarantine.

There are many people around the world who believe that covid-19 is a made virus.
Having aid that, they think that their freedom is violated by those measures without any reason so they do not comply to those rules on purpose. They want to be free and not quarantined.

We don't know the truth. Politicians can say that but what is the crucial thing here is we need to focus on helping people who already infected so they can get cured as soon as possible. Although until right now, the doctor has not found the right medicine, as long as the infected people can increase their immune, that can help them to survive and cured by itself. Many things or almost all things in real life has been effect by the Covid-19, but we don't need to give up because we still have more time to heal those people.

In poor countries where hospitalization is a very expensive thing, I'm sure there will be more people that will be taken by the virus.
Everyone will try to improve their immune system as good as they can but the risk is still high since this virus is not only targeting our body but our mental health also, when you see a lot of people especially in your country or within the city you live, you will also feel weak.
