Haha, if there are people who can predict the future, of course they will use it for their own interests rather than looking for clients. Why in modern times like today there are still people who believe in such things. Btw, suppose we are sure there is a person with the ability to predict the future 100% accurate, the effort to find such person can be very long or even until we die will not necessarily be met.
Of course, I'll keep it on my own. Though it looks too greedy and nobody will believe you if you will say that you know everything that is coming, better to keep it by my self than to look stupid.
Nothing to be sure and 100% guaranteed for market returns, only we gonna be sure and 100% that we will experience losses. Cheesy

Sometimes it is not always possible to see in advance all the vulnerabilities in your system. You offer exchanges to act more unpredictably, but with every new update of this type there is a risk that a new vulnerability will appear in the security system. At the same time, it’s much easier to get rid of vulnerabilities that are revealed after a hacker attack.
No exchange could guarantee that they are a hack proof site, vulnerability is always their and smart hackers can find it.
That is why it's necessary for them to focus on the security of the exchange as once it's breach, their reputation will be affected and that could be the reason for them to loss their business. Binance was just lucky to have a SAFU funds, but if they'll not improve, next hack might be bigger that could possibly result to a close shop.
4143  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Do you always invest in top ranked coins? on: August 22, 2019, 11:00:43 AM
80% of my innvestments are in top coins and other investment in good projects where team is working on there product , i am doing like this only i think this is the safest way rather then investing everything in new coins and ipo and risking entire capital
When you hold more stable coin, that's more safer, but you are not exempted when there is a market dump, you have to bear with it, the good thing with holding top coins is they don't easily loss investors, unless there is a serious problem.

With good liquidity, this is a sign that it's good for long term because big exchanges themselves would not list a coin that they believe won't attract trades.
Commission is their main income, more traders means their business will be profitable.
4144  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Sometimes its always the investors fault on: August 21, 2019, 11:26:08 PM
Always need to study the projects before to enter into it , since so many scams , but with the advent of ieo many scams are gone , and a we value our reputation and take only those projects that proves to be good.
To come into the realization that crypto market really needs time to correlate more ideas before making steps inside. The common fault of many (not only for investors) is that they know nothing, they never look around and observe the market behavior. They'll the taking the risk without back-up knowledge to help it out from losing.
4145  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is the future for crypto exchanges? on: August 21, 2019, 11:03:57 PM
I dont know why people are not using DEX. They are secure enough and transparent . Yet most of the people prefer centralized exchanges. There are a lot of dex in the market. Its time for people to turn towards DEX. I dont know when all are going to learn. Its a fact that centralized exchanges are prone to attack and hack.
DEX is what people are using right now, in fact, DEX has the best place to stay as the price seems to be not controlled by anyone nor the whales can do so.
What we are looking into some DEX doesn't have big market volumes causing them to fall down as most users and traders as preferable for the high volume exchanges. Not only of its transparency but considering also the fees and market value.
4146  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: With Bitcoin, a future is not clear on: August 21, 2019, 10:40:53 PM
It is hard to predict but a good thing to believe and hope for better days ahead. Bitcoin and any other altcoin are subjected to high volatility. Hence at the end of the day, is either you lose big or make some high profit as you desire.  Anticipating for a year for BTC to hit $20K is very feasible.
It sometimes to be doubtful but can't make a way to think that Bitcoin still unstoppable and could conquer the challenge with.
Though it looks different today and it is riskier than of before but we can't disclose our chances to become more profitable.
Reaching for another $20k this year is a big thing to challenge and still not guarantee to make it.
4147  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The secret of gambling? on: August 21, 2019, 01:59:32 PM
One of the best secrets is just getting all the money you want to bet together and just placing one big bet.  IF you win just walk away, over time the more you gamble the closer you will be to the expected odds which means losing money.
If we get luck in the first bet or still be losing in the 2nd and 3rd bets closely losing everything we have in that day. I'm afraid I could just lost in a single bet if I will bring it on,  I preferred to put into small odds before having a final bet and then leave. Losing 2 bets out of 5, still be good and enough for me for that day and I will no longer to place bets after.
4148  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoins should focus more on technology on: August 20, 2019, 11:04:26 PM
i think altcoins should focus more on technology sector of the economy, with this they will attract more investors and users
They are certainly doing that as a real profit will always work to deliver and they understands that when they show results the price will follow.
However, it's the nature of the market that people love to speculate, not only the development of the project would make the price to increase but the team should also learn to make some hype to attract investor, and they should be smart enough to do everything based on timing.

For example, this year, when altcoins is not progressive, making good announcement regarding project's development is not always attractive because investors still has the fear in putting their money and they'll rather put it in BTC when the overall altcoins market performance is poor.
4149  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Trust the process on: August 20, 2019, 10:36:58 PM
Definitely you have to, if you are a trader and a bounty hunter and the same time, that makes you understand more the market situation.

I'm not saying that it's bad to work for bounty now because the market is bad for altcoins, if you have a mind of a trader, you understands that this market is temporary and there will be great recovery in the future, and with that, you will also see bounty hunting is an opportunity for you to accumulate more coins now without spending money to acquire it and you can hold it together with your coins that you bought and just hope this drought will be soon so we can monetize our reward at the right time, and we can prove that patience will really pays off.
4150  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Too late too buy BNB?? on: August 20, 2019, 10:22:18 PM
Binance token was able to grow because of the launching of IEO on the binance exchange which has been successful all along but i dont think its too late to buy bnb token,in january 2017 many thought its too late to invest in bitcoin at 1,500$ and see how far bitcoin have come,im not saying bnb can see four digit increase but im sure it can get to three digit easily
People who thought it's too late does not understand the potential of IEO in Binance.
IEO is just starting and I believe for many years to come IEO will be the trend, hence it will grow and will increase the demand of BNB if Binance will still lead in the market which based on its performance now is most likely will continue to dominate in the future.

It's never too late because Binance will continue to be develop and as the demand rises, obviously it will reflect to its value.
4151  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why are investors still complaining? on: August 20, 2019, 10:08:36 PM
This has become their risk when investing. there is no safe here even guarantees only a bulshit. it's better if you really don't like a big enough risk to switch to other investments that are indeed more attractive to invest in the category you're looking for that is safe
Usually those other investments that are safe offers only small profit, and investors that does not have decent amount to invest would not be satisfy with small profit only, that's why they are here because crypto is believe to give the best return based on its history, however they only see the profit side and don't see that investors hold long enough in order for them to enjoy the profit they get last year.

In addition, the trend of crypto does not automatically happen in the future as well because as they said, crypto is very unpredictable, and it could change any time.
4152  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Just got into BTC on: August 19, 2019, 05:04:17 AM
Hello boys, I received a big amount of money in BTC & decided to keep it instead of putting it into my bank directly.

I'm really stressed about BTC, I don't wanna lose all this money because it's a big amount for me.

I don't know what to do anymore, wether holding or getting it into tether. Help

How much Bitcoin did you receive and from where ? Also in which wallet are you holding the bitcoins ? Do you have the private key of that wallet or password of coinbase etc ?
You need to answer all these questions and if you have full control over your bitcoin, you can keep them for long term.

I don't think OP would tell the exact amount, because if he wants, he would have include that in his post.
That's a big amount for him and therefore it should be taken cared of and he need our advise.

For me, since it seems OP is not well verse with BTC yet, does not want to loss that big amount, I suggest him to stay safe, covert it, and put it in the bank as that's the only way it will be safe.

He might be holding for example 1 whole BTC, of course if he holds it will still be the same 1 BTC in the future but it's value, that's uncertain.
4153  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does bitcoin need to be a currency? on: August 19, 2019, 04:45:43 AM
It needs to be a currency in order to be a good investment, that is for long term, though it's already good now but price just rise because people speculate and they believe that bitcoin is gonna be mainstream in the future, if that will not happen, then BTC will not be a good investment as no demand means no price increase.
4154  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why are investors still complaining? on: August 19, 2019, 03:24:24 AM
Even at times when the market was still good, there are still investors who are complaining.
That's pretty normal in the crypto space as not everyone are profit when it comes to investing.

It's easy to say that they should invest in big exchanges for IEO but big exchanges are always for big investors only, small investors has no choice but to wait until the coin from big exchange will be live in exchange and even if they can be profitable but they will not be able to maximize their profit, in short, those who invested in good IEO are ensured profit already.
4155  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling as a profession: there's people who live out of gambling? on: August 17, 2019, 02:49:58 AM
Just curious here.
I know there are tons of way to live.

but is there such a thing as professional gamblers?

people who make a living onlyout of gambling (online or on rl)?

resources and comments on that are really welcome.

I am sure there are people who rely on gambling to meet their needs, but it will have a great risk that can ruin the whole life because gambling will depend on luck that unfortunately does not always come. Professional gamblers mostly need good money management tho.
You can't call yourself as professional if you don't possess all the necessary skills to do well in gambling, professional gamblers also does not rely on luck, it's their job so they need consistency in order for them to be profitable in the long run.

This is not easy for us  but they made a success because they spend time to study and develop themselves in gambling, how I wish I will become a professional gambler but you know when you don't have the talent, you can't force yourself to be one.

I can help with sending the BTC to @Kasabus native segwit address, just include a tiny bit extra for a transaction fee. Around 10k satoshi should be fine, maybe even less if @Kasabus isn't in a rush/fees stay low.

Not in a rush, I can wait a whole day to confirm the deposit. Thanks both of you guys, I will just wait until my winnings will arrive.
Until the next conference, let's still do the better here for PBA finals,  Grin

@bisdak40

Deal. Cool

My wallet will surely hurt later on lol.  Cheesy

Goodluck to us.

This is great, everybody's happy now, good luck too harizen.
4158  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Philippine Basketball Association Finals Discussion on: August 16, 2019, 03:14:26 AM
I will change it a bit. I will bet for TNT to win the series for BTC0.01. If you pick SMB you will win the same amount. Yes, that was a risk for me knowing TNT are down by 1. If SMB won tonight, you win, if SMB loses, you still have a chance at Game 7. What an advantage.

19:00 is game time. This offers valid only until 17:00, August 16, PHP time.
Would you accept ETH if someone is willing to take your tempting offer?

Yes, I'm open to that for this just to happen. Smiley

However, I currently have few portions of ETH on-hand at the moment and don't want to withdraw some on exchange. I will still pay with BTC if I lose, BTC0.01 fixed. If I won, someone will pay me the equivalent value of it to ETH. I'm just thinking about what time should I based the snapshot.
@Harizen, i'll take the deal if it still open and no need to convert to ETH. Will pay you in BTC if SMB will lose.

LOL, I guess there's 3 of us already who accepted the offer, I hope Harizen can accommodate all of us, and if he can only accept one then since I'm the one who first accepted this offer, I hope he will close the deal with me.
4159  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETH price struggling on: August 16, 2019, 03:03:45 AM
it's been a steady price for Ethereum since the begining of this month, still moving within 200 - 240$ Usd , do you think this is a bad sign for ETH?

Its really not a good sign of performance in which Ethereum price is in dip again below $200 now. This shows that we are still in bearish trend because not only the Ethereum but the whole market is still in difficult performance but hopefully they will bounce back before this year would end.
Why not just relax, ETH could drop below $200 but it could easily rise to $200, however, it's not what we are looking for, we like to see more consistency from ETH which we haven't seen this year so far.

Now that BTC is back over $10,000 after shaking the market for hours, I think this is a bullish sign and would help eth to be back again if BTC will continue.
4160  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Bounty Question on: August 16, 2019, 02:40:52 AM
This is just flimsy and irrelevant excuses to deny bounty hunters of their reward. To me, a bounty manager should be held liable if and when the project team fails to deliver on the bounty promises.
If that's the case, that would reduce the number of bounty managers in the space because one mistake they might loss their reputation or worse their account in bitcointalk might get red tag. I think we should not totally rely on the bounty manager, we should also make our own research about the project we are promoting, function of the bounty managers are more like to compute the job done or relay information from the team. to the bounty hunters.
