I do not care if Giannis is better, they should not play him at all. Think about it, they are going to have to resign Giannis this year and they are 3-1 losing right now, making him play through injury could mean he could hurt himself more, and even without injury he had to leave the court which means it is not nothing, even if a small thing it is something and they are going to end up losing anyway, no team has managed to come from 3-0 down to win a series, and Bucks do not have what it takes to be the first one neither.

So, sitting down Giannis whatever the result is a good idea. Obviously they still have to figure a lot of stuff out, why did they look so awesome but ended up losing to Miami is a big question, they should have been sweeping them when you look at the regular season situation.

Not like what happened to Durant, I hope.
Let the role players do their job.
They can play harder. It is just because Giannis is there they are pulling back their skills. We saw it, they can win it.
Middleton posed like he is a real All-Star. That should have been happening from the start and not just now.

I might bet for the Bucks without Giannis next game. I want to cheer for the Bucks roleplayers.  Cheesy
As i said earlier that lets hope that it wont really be severe just like on what happened on Durant which really make him rest for too long due to his injury.
I agree on the point about playing into their roles but i cant really blame off when other on the team would really have that kind of boost up when they do know
that they've been playing with their star player compared on having none but that game proves out that they can handle out situation even if their main player is out
of the court.This can really show-off their true performance and trying to push up their own roles.

Great example why you shouldn't let influencers influence you and your brain. Money speaks words here - they've probably been paid well enough to say "fuck it" and jump in the other team's boat.
Yeah, why not promote something you used to stand against if you get money, huh?
Its unfortunately the world we live in. Most people in the world, will blindly trust their favorite celebrity, and lose countless money because of it. I mean, just take a look at the recent Twitter compromise, and how many people blindly followed the doubling scam that occurred. Instagram, used to be the worst for these sort of trends, but it seems Twitter is now the place for posting things with political motivations. I've also noticed Youtube infulencers/creators are now getting much more comfortable with ramming sponsorships, and brand deals without doing their own research on just what they might be talking about. A few big Youtubers have been caught out promoting scams for this exact reason.

I wish people just wised up, and understood that an infulencer has a price, and they will push any agenda on you if their price is met. Of course, there are some influencer ith a bit of integrity, but they are far, and few between.
This had been the reality and it would continue to be like this yet there are really people whom do really follow blindly and when someone whom they follow do suggest a particular thing then they do
directly believe without any hesitations and in result it would really be surely a lost of money.They do only realize when its too late or the damage had already been done but for sure in next time
they would really be aware.

We know that new people do comes in to the market as adoption is on the move.When they do first encounter these investment tips then  the cycle repeats once again.
Everything can really be changed up when it comes to money, minding for their pride would surely be set aside when money is on the line.
4143  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Safety first before trading on: September 06, 2020, 11:52:00 PM
It's scary that more and more are becoming victims of scammers or hackers in the trading world. Therefore I totally agree to do it
safety first when trading, one of which is choosing popular and reliable trading platforms. Then choose potential coins for trading,
and don't buy low volume coins. The next one uses risk management so that the capital used is safer, and lastly, always use the
stop-loss feature to maintain the capital we have.


Being cautious in everything you do before you trade and while you're into trading helps keep you safe and your assets too. Do not rush into trading thinking that this is a quick rich sheme because once you're into trading, your funds will be automatically in a high risks. Choose the best trading platform once you trade and make sure you are trading those high volume coins and not those dead coins or else you will end up losing your funds.
Theres no such thing about being completely safe when it comes to investment no matter how cautious you are but somewhat this is much better compared to those people who do just make out reckless and
careless decisions towards into their investment.Of course we do mind into our investment since we do know that our money is on stake but mistakes are inevitable so you should somewhat expect that losses
cant really be avoided no matter how hard you do try on making the best strategy or analysis out there but what most important is that you do know how to handle out situation which would result for you to
end up on profits on what you've been doing.

It's not him alone, Middleton also has a a good production with 25 points so far.

Checking the stats at halftime, only Giannis scored a double-digit point with Middleton's 8 next then the rest at around 2-5 points.

The Bucks able to survived the sweep. But Giannis is now in question if he will play the next game.
That would be the question if he do able to play on next game but basing of with that left leg injury and on his facial expression and scream then we can say that its a bit severe.
Its unlikely that he would able to play on next game and that would really be a big problem on having no Giannis on the court yet game 5 would be on 9/9. 2 days wont be
enough for that kind of injury.
4145  Economy / Gambling / Re: Just Made a Neat Script for Bustadice on: September 06, 2020, 10:52:28 PM
Just be cautious here:

(1) a newbie account
(2) LOL, he modifies someones script (almost everyone can do that)
(3) He admit that he doesn't have any BTC to test, so we really don't know the success rate

There could be a better script somewhere that has been tested, just saying.

Being cautious from time to time is always been suggested but sometimes there are things which arent the same on what we do expect nor have that kind of impression.OP didnt ask out
for some money for someone to get that script and also i didnt see any wallet addresses on the code for possible scamming attempt.This do shows purely a code with a setting
and i do appreciate that disclaimer on using up 10k bits isnt really that much for you to be bothered on but i cant really blame you yet we have seen similar situations like this
after all these years.
4146  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Biggest Bitcoin giveaway scams and how can you avoid them on: September 06, 2020, 10:27:17 PM
This is the problem why newbies get scammed easily because they don't know anything yet.
Just remember this line "if it's too good to be true, then it's prolly a scam".
And also, there are no free in this world–it is either you pay or work for that something to get it.
Always do your own research, it will be very helpful in the future.
Most of the time this is actually the main reason and majority did really experience such scenario on where we do get scammed because we do believe that these things do really exist or possible.
Until we do lost up money and thats the time we do realize and learnt up things but it isnt really necessary for a newbie to experience loss before he would able to learn because if he's really that serious
on anything or do value up his money then he would definitely make up some research into things and would be aware on how things do work in crypto field.
4147  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Casimero vs Micah - Sept 26 on: September 05, 2020, 11:56:40 PM
Yes, I guess everyone is not very happy to see the Casimero and Inoue will not go and face each other this year. I mean we all have been waiting for this as it is one of the most anticipated fight. And now hearing Casimero fighting a relatively unknown fighter?

I also not familiar with Micah, records look solid in paper, so we don't know if he has the potential to make an upset. Of course, we don't have him to derail Casimero vs Inoue potential fight in 2021, and I do hope that Casimero gets this in the bag.
Might not be known but those numbers arent fake ones and as mentioned where it does have higher KO percentage and still undefeated. Casimero might be having more experienced
but this one shouldnt really be take lightly and i see this man would really be a dangerous opponent for Casimero but its sure that they are already prepared for that.
I didnt expect that Inoue and Casimero fight didnt really push through but we are still hoping that it might happen on next year maybe after these fights.

Of course, they aren't fake, still undefeated Olympian but the opposition or the fighters he fought is not even close to what Casimero has beaten in years. And yes, he shouldn't take this lightly as we don't want to see the Casimero vs Inoue derail by an unknown fighter from Ghana. The fight is on Sept 26, but it seems that Casimero is already trained enough. He might be just taking some off as he might get over trained here. Remember that he has been training for Inoue as early as this year prior to the pandemic.

It is Casimero's advantage if he has been training for quite a while already. But don't underestimate his opponent, because Micah may have other cards not seen by boxing fans. So just to be safe, train as hard as he can and treat it like the same fight with Inoue.
Fights should really be taken seriously and thats how a boxer should really see on each upcoming fight.You dont know on what your opponent is capable of and even he's not fighting Inoue then
that training that he had done wouldnt still come to waste since he would still fight into other fighter.It might not be into our expectations but this is better rather than have nothing at all.
Both have their own opponent and as a boxer, conditioning your body from time to time will really makes you ready no matter which one you would be facing off.
4148  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Fundamental Analysis or Technical Analysis - which is more important? on: September 05, 2020, 11:25:56 PM
Right now, fundamental would have helped you to realize that bitcoin could have gone down whereas TA wouldn't help you to realize that, there was too much things showing that bitcoin could be going up, even the most advanced trader was saying that $12k was a wall that we are trying to knock down and that wall can't handle to stay up forever so one day we will go up, that was the logic for a long time.

Unfortunately they were wrong, but if you worked with Fundamental instead, you could have seen that it is actually doing not that great, not as great as TA shows, there was too much pressure. All those times we tried to go over $12k and didn't? That means someone didn't want it, and buyers are not going to just keep on buying from that level to make people richer so it went down.

How would fundamentals have predicted anything? Fundamentals have very little to do with short term price action. That's why it's so commonly said that markets are irrational.

You raise a good point about trader sentiment. I'm really big on contrarian trading. When everyone is thinking the same thing, the opposite usually happens. Next time it seems like all the traders are planning on BTC going to the moon, consider trading against them. Wink

What many people don't realize is that being a good trader is all about reacting to price action, not predicting it. When we were trading at $12K, predicting whether bulls would fail or not was a gamble. Stop selling below the $11,100-$11,200 breakout zone was much more of a sure thing.
Im actually on that contrarian side where i do go to the opposite way when everyone is already on that optimist side where they are boosted out on the price increase.
I heavily agree on that price action matters yet not all do decide to be a hodler anyway which means fundamentals are somewhat irrelevant and doesnt really come out
from time to time. It doesnt matter which one you do use as long you do see for it to be effective on being profitable then better stick to that.
Its a matter on how you do make use all of the info that you can grasp on.
4149  Economy / Gambling / Re: Is it necessary to create an ANN thread? on: September 05, 2020, 10:53:15 PM
I just wanted to ask most of the users lately are asking if a certain casino is legitimate or not and some are asking why a crypto based casino does not open an Announcement thread here on the forum. Is it really necessary that a crypto casino or sports betting website needed to open an Announcement thread here?
Not that really. But it's the same as increasing your channels. Just like those companies that have several social media pages, from Facebook to Twitter to Instagram and other social media pages that they can create. Having an ann thread here is that you are recognizing the traffic that you can get from the forum and it's the most popular bitcoin forum. Traffic from here is organic and you don't have to target your market because it's already being classified as people here are aware of cryptocurrencies and gambling.

Bitcointalk is a perfect place to introduce your business if you deal in crypto. It could be an exchange, a gambling site, a bitcoin mixer service or a marketplace which deals in bitcoins. With ANN thread one can announce his business in an organized way. You will get real customers from this platform.
It is indeed.
Most of the crypto services including casinos are making their threads publish here because they do understand that this is the perfect place for their announcement. Not mentioning other platforms which they can publish any of their announcements but they can't just go without publishing it on bitcointalk.
It may not be an immediate requirement but if they have been long in the community, they will understand why it is important.
For people who do own crypto business then its not surprising that they would consider on making marketing into this place but there are some that havent seen this place or not really aware but sooner or later
they will discover it out and would immediately make out advertisements yet no one would like to miss out a place that had pure crypto traffic or audience which is really the perfect place for you to
make out exposure neither you do have a gambling site or any other crypto related services. Making ANN thread might not be necessary but if you do really like for some recognition or
awareness then this will be always a best option to take.

Every time there is a new innovation I feel that everything is very good but because there are a lot of dirty people, they managed to take advantage of this moment so that many DeFi projects were born that were of no benefit like the popular ICO time. DeFi currently only takes really expensive shipping costs.

That ideas coming from those opportunist people who loves riding with hypes, there are projects that just incorporate themselves
to DeFi, only to take advantage from people who really don't understand the system. Those who take the risk thinking that the
hypes will bring them real good benefits.
Only to realized that they are already being victimized by scammers who runaway with their money.
Have been always like this and this what happens on that ICO hype where everything do pops out where useless projects do flooded out the market.Same goes into this DeFi
where it isnt really really surprising that we would see lots of those so called opportunist to go along and do take advantage while its still hot. Lots of noob investors
will just jump in without even noticing that they are already dealing with fraud or projects that doesnt really deserve to be supported.Im not generalizing all of them but
5% would be considered legit nor does really have that actual usage or relevance and the rest are just trash.
4151  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Problem Gambling in the wake of covid-19 on: September 05, 2020, 09:47:35 PM


The covid19 causes out cities to lockdown and then companies are laying off because no employees are coming. And then because an employee would have no pay to wait they'd gonna look for ways to earn, if they find gambling online is the key then they'd be among those who gambles amidst the crisis.

Some probably just stay at home and find the casino ad on google and then eventually click out of boredom. Its a bad time to develop gambling addiction while there is covid19 crisis. So nuts though that we don't want anyone addicted yet we promoted casino on our signatures Smiley
It doesnt need for you to be an addicted gambler for you to promote a casino into your signature.Its a different story when it comes on earning thru advertising and if you do find out
that it isnt ethical for your side to promote gambling then you can freely just skip out on this job and find another one but if its just okay to be an advertiser of a casino then go ahead.
Its not really a solid criteria for you to take on neither you would take the job or not just because you do hate gambling or being addicted.
4152  Economy / Speculation / Re: This time when the stock market crashes, Bitcoin will go to moon! on: September 05, 2020, 08:59:12 PM
We sort of have a stock market decline. Not a crash but a retrace. And what happened with Bitcoin? It also lost value about the same as stocks. Bitcoin and stocks live in the same economy. Yes they go up and down differently and Bitcoin should recover faster when the actual crash happens.  But for sure Bitcoin will not ignore anything that stock market and economy do. 

Why people are really fan on making correlations between this markets not only on stocks but also in forex as well.They do presume out when stocks decline then crypto market will go up which is really a very
wrong perception for someone in terms of investment decisions.They arent correlated period but i cant blame of those people who do make use of these informations to be included into their analysis but i would
say that it doesnt really give out that kind of precision or in high chance for it to happen.People will just eventually learn that this wont really work in reality. Institutional money might be flowing into this market
but no one will surely notice it.
4153  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: All your entertainment things must have an external limiting feature, agree? on: September 05, 2020, 06:33:15 PM

So far there are no gambling sites like that and I don't think we'll have one like that it's like that they are going to limit their income, and if one gambling site does that, the gambler will just shift to a competitor gambling site he may even stop playing to a gambling site that limits his time and money that he can play with and go for a gambling site that does not implement such rule.

Exactly! No gambling business will really just set out that kind of restriction unless if they are mandated by the government to do so but doing it willingly? Its an impossible thing.
Who would be a gambling site owner will having that external limiting feature yet their revenue does depend into those people who do play into the site or on the actual physical place.
When we do talk about limits then this is already a responsibility on the gambler itself because it would really be still useless if they do impose such restriction yet
people would find a way or place on where they can play without having this kind of prohibition.

Bitcoin.

No one can beat out this coin but its not an assurance that it would hold forever though.We know that there would be always a better coin but it all matters with the demand.
We can have our own list on our preference but in the end the community would really be the one who drove those prices on where it would be heading.
Thing here is that we do know on how to utilize these movements.
4155  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is predictably a guarantee in an uncertain world on: September 04, 2020, 08:56:03 PM

I have this deep convincing believe that Bitcoin will change the future world of money for the better by giving everyone the same opportunities.

Tell those who speak about the use of Bitcoin ending soon should come to realize the fact that the rules that govern Bitcoin’s monetary policy are written in its source code and that is a phenomenal guarantee for all its users., today and in the future.

When you buy Bitcoin in 2020, you already know what to expect. You know that you will still own some Bitcoin out of every 21 million existing in 2050. If you didn't sell off for fiat. This is not same for paper money.

 It is often said that Bitcoin is a hedge against uncertainty. And that's it.
Being too optimistic isnt bad but dont let your hopes up that much or expectations to be on full extent yet no man on this world would able to know on what future lies ahead.
We might see bitcoin do really well but you cant be sure on what would happen on next years to come. Are you sure that it cant be replaced by other coins in the market or something better?
Im not on the negative side but you cant really avoid those possibilities that could happen along the way. Guarantee? theres no such thing yet everything will really matter on
community support, adoption or recognition.
4156  Economy / Gambling / Re: Casinos Withdrawal Fees Rise (!?)|| September 2020 on: September 04, 2020, 07:19:37 PM
Try using XRP on casino instead.  The fees in making transactions with XRP seem to not change.  The only that you would not like is that the price don't spike high which if you have it, its not growing.

Making transactions in BTC also takes a lot of confirmation before it goes through. The casino I'm working with even asks that if we could consider XRP as pay for promoting them. I don't mind so I also use XRP to bet.

Today I have been reviewing the Tower casino and I have noticed that it has defined three Fee models:
Fast: 0.00046 BTC
Standard: 0.00042
Slow: 0.0004 BTC

Its the first time I heard of tower.bet but I think its fair withdrawal fee. Exchanges are asking the same amount too.
unfortunately in some gambling places there is no one that does not provide a solution for withdrawing with altcoins, if at the beginning you used XRP you might be able to withdraw with XRP, but if at the beginning you made a deposit using bitcoin then how to make withdrawals with other coins because exchanges can not be made at the gambling venue.

There are several gambling sites nowadays that do really have that exchange feature ex. Crypto-games where you can possibly exchange or convert your btc on your desired altcoin and do make
withdrawal later on which i can say that it is really a nice feature to have on a gambling site specially on times like these where fees are way too high. Im not really that surprised
that there would really be a day where fee is really a burden even on trading matters which its all the same.

They will only worry after they get infected by the virus so as for now, enjoying is what matters.
Everyone will if they knew that they were already infected and becomes a carrier. What does it take to be a carrier? self quarantines, medication, expensive medication with the expensive hospital bills.

They haven't thought of it but they want to gamble in the midst of the pandemic.
They wouldnt regret nor mind it off first until they do get infected and when things gets messy specially on financial aspect because hospitalization is costly then this is where regrets do come out that they shouldnt have played nor visit out of the crowd just to fill out their gambling addiction.People are very hard headed even if they do know that virus is very highly contagious but still they do ignore just for them to play.
Im not saying that all are just like that but there are people who dont really care until they do get infected. Violation fees or penalties should really be set out high same as others been suggesting.
4159  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What I think will be the top cryptocurrencies in 2021 on: September 03, 2020, 10:26:00 PM
The hype of DeFi will die in Q3 2020 as the new year will give room for another crab to be hyped who knows maybe data or some other stuffs. Hype dies doesn't mean DeFi will stop existing though but just that the money currently flowing into that sector will move to some other sections and that'll be the new kids on the block. The likes of chainlink will be dropped out of the top 10. Bitcoin, ethereum and some other OG's like Ripple etc will still retain their spot.

I think some other stablecoins will join USDT since the volume of transaction are increasing by their numbers daily. The end point is anyone thinking some DeFi project will join the top coins as chainlink did should just give up that hopes.
Im with this sentiment which is actually the real situation that do happen from time to time on when the hype dies then we would see another thing to be hyped and money will flow once again into that particular field.
Its just really that common that new one will actually place those older ones or had been already been zipped out by those people who do play big.Talking about on whose gonna be on the top then those currently on the list will most likely to retain their positions but we cant really conclude since anything can happen but its hard to believe on that there would be a certain project would held up for that long just because its been hyped up.Demand what matter most from time to time and as i agree for those DeFi supporters out there that shouldnt really hoping that much.
