4161  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Giving bitcoins as a gift? on: April 09, 2021, 02:53:55 PM
There's nothing wrong with that because you owe to that woman but I think it's only become worthy if you give them the readily converted amount of the bitcoin rather than giving the bitcoin itself it's already pandemic it's hard to earn money and again that woman does not too much interest with the bitcoin it's all gone and will be forgotten your give sooner because they don't know the bitcoin.
As long as there is no string attached that will be fine. I hope this never gives negative intention or that woman will think differently for such a huge surprise gift. Bitcoin is not a common gift, I don't receive any...so if there is someone who will give some of it, I have to accept it, and that for sure the woman won't decline such offer/gift if ever that really happens IRL. But be sure, he needs to clarify first the intention of sending it otherwise, one party will think as cheating... Grin
4162  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price fall to Zero? Possible or not? on: April 09, 2021, 01:47:10 PM
If we think that Bitcoin will able to reach $100,000 in the future, then we could say that Bitcoin will never fall and back to zero in value.

ZERO means nothing and it means people are not investing/holding any crypto at all. Is this be possible? No direct answer for this but as usual, people are asking and hoping that this crypto could last longer and so latecomers still have the chance to enjoy their life having Bitcoin.  

No, this is not possible in the next 10 years, because a lot of money has been invested in bitcoin. But the price may return to $3.5k
What will happen in the next 10 years? Have you seen it already? I hope I could believe that but it can't and I was believing nothing it happens like that.

4163  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which NFTs are worth the investment? on: April 09, 2021, 01:28:53 PM
NFT's might hit the market but for now, it never gives me the interest to invest in any one of them and we can't tell which one of them worth to invest. That is too early to make this speculation but as Defi gives some market change, these NFT tokens will possibly doing the same.

Maybe this could help to find which one...
https://www.okex.com/academy/en/top-nft-projects-and-use-cases

But, as I've said, it is too risky to start investing in new projects in which the demand isn't stable enough. Maybe we have to wait to see results for early NFT projects progress and evaluate if they could really be profitable or not.
4164  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Altcoin season ending in may ? on: April 09, 2021, 04:01:05 AM
Well, that will be a wild guess, I think. And I don't think that because you see XRP shooting out as an example you will say that altcoin season will end next month. No. it wasn't look like that and altcoin season will continue or even to stop without XRP price change.

Anyway, I was expecting like this, speculation, price prediction will seems not guaranteed it will happen. As long as the market remains decentralized (as it was, not XRP) will remain unpredictable.
4165  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: April 08, 2021, 04:57:54 PM
Early pick.

Game : Jazz vs TrailBlazers.

Jazz are on a 2 losing streak, they will play against the TrailBlazers and this is their back to back game after losing against the Suns. Maybe not a good spot for the Jazz because fatigue factor could play, but this is a must win by them or else they'll extend their losing streak to 3.

Thefore my pick is Jazz -6. Good luck everyone.

Another value pick from you! Jazz might have some fatigue now but it's also important to them

to stop their losing streak, third in a row might not be good for the top seed franchise, Good luck everyone!

That's a great call, but Jazz could end their losing streak and not covering the spread, that's the risk as the spread is quite high knowing Trail Blazers is also a good team. Anyway I like to say good luck but I'm not betting on this game, nor follow anyone's pick just in this particular game.
4166  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: April 08, 2021, 04:46:31 PM
I know I'm a little late on this, but I am curious what you guys thought of the huge Bulls trade getting Nikola Vucevic and sending of a couple first rounders to the Magic for him.  As a life long Bulls fan, I am personally just happy that they are making moves and not trying to sit on players they plan to "develop" for years on end that never end up panning out.  I am pumped that we finally have what seems to be a competent management team..finally ( Gar/Pax were a nightmare).
This depends on their performance, and so far, I think Bulls are impoving and Nikola Vucevic seemed fit playing with the Bulls type of play.  Actually I'm happy they won their last 2 games, and they are slowly going up to playoff standing. Current rank at number 10, if they'll maintain that, they have a chance to fight for a playoff spot.
4167  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Could Be Chinese ‘Weapon’ on: April 08, 2021, 01:51:24 PM
I don't think that China will have such endeavor. It is one of the countries which is thinking totally negatively about Bitcoin. I don't see any reason for the government to change their minds suddenly and try to use Bitcoin as some kind of a weapon. Besides, they are working on their digital yuan right now.
But you can't be sure about that. That that said weapon is not a literal word meaning weapon to kill people, it is all about financial competition and we know how ambitious they are. Nevertheless, China won't probably talk about that in public, that gonna be their secret.

If that is true, why they ban Bitcoin in the first place. This remained uncertain, or maybe this is just an assumption to create another market drama and change the direction for trend. Because that is really not the thing that we are expected to see in the future.  
4168  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do not hide your hard feelings about trading; share the experiences on: April 08, 2021, 01:26:19 PM
Most newbies in the crypto currency space who are just learning trading are most times only fed with the profit side of crypto; once such newbie experience loss on trades; they get disappointed. The best thing while teaching newbies about trading is to educate them about the profits and loss side; so that when they are in profit they are grateful; when they are in loss; they know they will make the funds back.

What suggestions do you have ? how do you guide your newbie traders under your tutorship? do explain below lets learn.
Trading can't be all in profit, losing is a part of it but why it is mostly happens to newbies, they are probably have less experience. Yep, become disappointed when we lose is a natural feeling and we can't hide that.

But if we wanted to have a positive result from our trades, we have to keep going despite the losses we experience. Quitting could only be the last option if we find it hopeless and see no improvement of our traders even though we spend a lot of our efforts. This means that trading isn't really for us and we need to force ourselves to believe then. That just a suicide.
4169  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: XRP is Back on: April 08, 2021, 04:48:27 AM
XRP will never lose its reputation despite of the said lawsuit case. The developer/s of this coin will find its way to remains XRP on the market which I think that is what it's happen now. It gradually having a rally but that was not because people are investing this which increases the demand, it could be just the market is in hypes and XRP price manipulation takes place. So if we are investing this coin (in particular), neither to expect that  it becomes x5, x10 just like the others, that is because it is centralize project and it never happens ever since that it having like than.

Which other bookies have a cashout option and support btc?
Sportsbet.io

Sites please with a good reputation, not something like this https://www.trustpilot.com/review/sportsbet.io .

Check the forum review not a site that could be bias.

Here, reviews are more transparent because people are honest with their review, and sportsbet.io is one of the best sportsbook with good reputation in the forum. Yes, they have the what you are looking for, but if you don't trust the site, everything is useless.

I'm not promoting them, was saying only based on my experience. (disclaimer)

The number 1 and 2 teams in the west are playing tonight, it's a great game that everyone should watch. NBA Fans where, what team do you think will win. Me, I favored the Suns here beacuse they are the home team.  Grin

4172  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC was a lifetime chance and I don't think we will see a similar opportunity on: April 07, 2021, 03:16:47 PM
That is why there are some people blaming themselves why they never trust Bitcoin earlier and why they just ignore it? This means that not all of us are seeing Bitcoin as a great opportunity, not all of us thinking that it have a bright future. Because if we only know that this will be the situation, I'm for sure that many were getting crazy to invest Bitcoin at the start. But unfortunately, we can no longer be getting back to the time it starts. But anyway, we are not too late then, Bitcoin still in the growing phase and so we still have a chance. Better too late than never.
4173  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: XRP is pumping now. on: April 07, 2021, 02:13:00 PM
I am really optimistic now and actually even before, that Ripple will pump hard one day once everything is under control. Sadly, at the early stage I sold my Ripple when it was $0.45. Surprisingly, Ripple pump hard and just few cents to hit $1. I know it will happen but I sold all of my Ripple. I am in regret but choose to accept the fact that I must move on.
I don't think you are alone. because what has happened to XRP certainly makes many investors move their money from XRP.
the fact is that now luck rests with those who persevere and believe. although this situation could change very quickly when defeat was on the part of Ripple.
The trend had turned bright for XRP and it brings happiness to its holders. But it was not a surprise why many people had to look bad for XRP when the issues of SEC had come out and causing XRP to drop more leaving its position next to ETH. But for now, it gives some hope for a solid supporter for this coin and has patience for this time to arrive.

I will say that I was guilty of this and not believing XRP's potential after having a lawsuit case with SEC. But somehow it was proven that they could still compete with others, it might be mind-changing for all of us but can't just disclose directly the issue they had till now. Doubts are still there.
4174  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What are some good crypto trading apps on Android? on: April 07, 2021, 04:52:01 AM
Currently I used Binance exchange for my phone for trading but it often make mistakes that is different you are seeing the screen in whole. Well, the advantage is that you can easily make a trade wherever you are but that it is not seems to be comfortable with. I'd preferred to use PC or laptop for better analysis and less mistakes.

But if you are a full-time trader, making use of our phone for trade is highly discourage. Maybe could use only for monitoring services but not where it use for trading.
4175  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: April 06, 2021, 10:17:09 PM
After my losses two days ago, I'm back with my picks.

I'm going with the Bucks -5.5 vs  Warriors. Warriors are in a series losses but I think their woes will continues and this should be an easy one.

I've also gotten a players' props betbuilder on Raptors vs Lakers
https://i.imgur.com/iKfYIc3.png


Warriors in 3 straight loses, their first time playing back at home, I don't know if they can at least give a good game against the Bucks here but we know how dominant the bucks, so I believe the pick is just right, was it an opening line? because the line now is already at -6.5 for Bucks.
4176  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Cotto vs Marquez - Exhibition match on: April 06, 2021, 09:58:15 PM
But lets just see this fight for sure will give a time to watch this bout since this two fighter are quite good opponent of Pacman.

Fans would easily remember these two fighters as two great opponent of Pacman, particularly Marquez where he fought a series of fight but in the end it was Marquez who won but just due to a lucky punch, a one time punch KO. Some even say that Marquez is a coward for not giving Pacman a chance for a rematch even if he was offered with big money.

4177  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price has reached new high price near 59K on: April 06, 2021, 02:24:45 PM
Together they move high, Bitcoin and Altcoins. Bitcoin dominance isn't strong this time as many investors trying to catch some good times in altcoins pumps and take advantage of it but we can never see a huge impact on Bitcoin instead, it keeps rolling high as close to $60k. This is likely to see that investors now are not only focusing on altcoins but they also make share with Bitcoin.

50/50 market share drives the market to move not in a sideways but having them all moving high together. This gonna be the bullish season that we are waiting for and as we can see, those coins that have been dead for many years are also kicking and alive.
4178  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: XRP is pumping now. on: April 06, 2021, 01:44:39 PM
XRP is very famous for these type of bear traps. I am witnessing this pattern for many years now, with Ripple. A lot of investors get fooled and they lose their money after assuming that XRP is making a recovery. The ground situation remains unchanged for XRP. It has lost a large part of the user base and the acceptability has gone down due to the issues with SEC. Now they seems to have sorted out the issues with the SEC, but the investors are never going to trust them. So think twice before making investment with this coin.
So this means that the current short pumps are just a trap? If that so, then everything it happens to the market is also a trap? Maybe not, even XRP never wins and lifted their lawsuit case but I do believe that XRP couldn't be just a trap but this actually a natural market change. We are in the bullish season and we can therefore expect also that XRP will do the rally as well.

May choosing XRP is not really a good choice as it was a centralized coin and the ROI is low but it can't deny that XRP is been here for many years, and really can be trusted.
4179  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will crypto sportsbook replace fiat sportsbook in the future? on: April 05, 2021, 10:02:20 PM
It is just a matter of time the popular crypto sportsbooks will replace the traditional sports bookies, the time will change everything included our habits as gamblers. The biggest disadvantage of crypto bookies is the lack of necessary features that adds more fun in the process but the mentioned features are widely used by fiat sports bookies. Currently, Stake and Bitsler are my preferences as crypto sports bookies but both options don't cover my expectations TBH.

I don't think that time will come, crypto sportsbook is not as big as the fiat sportsbook. In fiat sportsbook, there are gamblers who are confident betting millions in one bet while in crypto sportsbook, whales are a bit worried that the site might go scam, and crypto sportsbook actually has lower limit compared to fiat sportsbook, so you can tell how big their exposure is based on the limit.

As expected.

PBA board considering another 'bubble season' in wake of delays

Another bubble means daily games to witnessed, that's the benefit for us who like to gamble on PBA because we will have more chance to gamble daily unlike in regular scheduled where games are only in Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
That's our speculation last time so they have no choice. Increased covid cases, possible more lockdowns again in the future, they will be coming up with a solution just for this season to continue.
Although this may seem to be the last week of this lockdown yet they really have to consider the bubble.

In preparations of more worse thing to happened, they needed to comes up with temporary solutions.

Bubble like what have mentioned above you, favors the gamblers as we can place our bets in the daily process, more odds more
ways of placing our bets and aimed for some  good luck to grow our capital.

New normal way still far as the covid cases still rising PBA boards together with the team owners
see this as their last resort.

At least they are ready and they have this plan in place.. so this is it, we are seeing a bubble again. Actually for me it's alright since I can watch them live and I can bet at the same time, maybe bad for PBA as their revenue expectation will not be meet but this is just part of the challenge.
