4241  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: I Predict $20,000 for dogecoin in 5years time on: June 17, 2021, 03:20:57 AM
Dogecoin has been different kinds of low level names in the past and in the present but the altccoin seem to have woken up to prominence and maybe it could keep sustaining the move as some altccoins like bnb, xrp, Ada, ethereum have done. Despite the name calling, the growth of dogecoin has really gone pass many so called promising coins and it is now at the 7th spot in crypto ranking.


Therefore, maybe dogecoin can get to $20,000 and above in 5 years time  Grin Grin just like this user predicted the price of bitcoin in the beginning

I think Degecoin will overtake Bitcoin Grin haha, Even though that's sound really ridiculous to knowing your future dream with Dogecoin, If such an incredible thing happens in the next 5 years, then we will see many billionaires in crypto market. Now you can hold tightly and wait for this day till come.

There are people who are really wishing that much without even realizing on what those numbers means and basing with the supply alone then its impossible even just reaching $10 then 5 years time how much more in 20k?

Even in wildest dreams where these numbers wont really tend to happen.Its impossible on the impossible and if you dont make yourself get frustrated
then its better not to expect that much.

Just hold your current DOGE coin but dont expect with those numbers and also theres no such way for DOGE to overtake Bitcoin no matter what.

Yeah honestly I see people saying hey bitcoin got to $20,000.  It's crazy that people have zero clue about supply.  I really hope people don't think that supply has no bearing on the value of a coin 😂
4242  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Polkadot [DOT] is a bad investment because it has unlimited inflation! on: June 17, 2021, 03:14:07 AM
I see Polkadot often mentioned as a good coin when people are asking for DeFi plaforms. But Polkadot is not a good coin, I found out after some research.
Please be caution, when you buy coins because coins are often praised and not mentioned about disadvantages.


Here is why Polkadot is a bad coin for an investment:

- Polkadot hat unlimited inflation, means, Polkadot has not a fixed supply where we know how many coins will be produced.


Proof:


https://bisontrails.co/polkadot-token-economics/


What is inflation any why is inflation so bad?

Inflation is produced if always new coins or monetary supply is created. Everyone's coins or money will lose value because more coins are created.
It is what is happening in Turkey, in Argentina or in Venezuela, when money is printed. All circulating money is losing value when new monetary supply is printed.
Inflation is a big reason why Bitcoin exists and is so successful! Bitcoin will always have 21 Millions of coins, even in 50 or 100 years. Bitcoin is a great store of value!  

Polkadot is opposite, it's a coin of inflation (proof: see picture above). It has no limited supply and every year, always more coins will come into circulation. magine what happens in 50 or 100 years? Polkadot will have a huge inflation
People will know more about inflation coins, when time passes but we can see it already here today if we are wise: some coins are a very good store of value (Bitcoin) and some coins are a very bad store of value (Polkadot).
When Polkadot is always mentioned, marketing persons who are pushing Polkadot are never mentioned about Polkadot's inflation!


But which coin can we buy instead of Polkadot?

What should we invest instead if we want a DeFi coin but want to avoid Polkadot, because it's not a store of value?
We can choose Avalanche [AVAX]. It is also a DeFi coin but has a capped supply of 720 Million coins:


https://medium.com/avalanche-hub/comparison-between-avalanche-cosmos-and-polkadot-a2a98f46c03b

Keep in mind when you buy a coin! Always research about inflation or if it's a store of value!
Even Dogecoin has huge inflation! Dogecoin is also not a store of value.

I tend to agree with the op here.  Endless supply and no max is bad for crypto.  Bitcoin was created to eliminate money printing which endless block rewards or inflation still is.

Brutal way to lose dough on the Philly game.  I mean up 26 that game was pretty much a lock.  Bet some people turned off the game thinking sure money only to wake up and fund out nope
4244  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: June 17, 2021, 03:09:50 AM
Unbelievable game between the Sixers and the Hawks. Atlanta down 26 points, but then Lou Williams and Trae Young combine bring the team to a comeback and now they've taken a one point lead with 1:26 left.

I can't fathom Sixers can't even score a basket in the last 7 minutes of the game. And if they loss this game, I think they are done in the series. Because they have been broken mentally specially that this game is in their homecourt.

What can we say, it was a complete collapse from the 76'ers, it was a great comeback. One of the best comeback in this year's playoff. The Nets starring Durant came back from 16 points down. Now, Trae Young and the Hawks down 26, trim down the lead in the third and then shutdowns the Philly with tough defense.

One of the best playoff games with a comeback is Lakers vs Portland. I can't remember what year it was, but it is where Kobe lob pass to Shaq.

Yeah that was insane.  Not only did they come back from 26 down but they were down 18 to kick off the 4th quarter.  You have to shave off a 1.5 points every minute just to tie it up.  Besides embid and Seth the rest of the team flopped.  Seth was on fire.  Game wasted now they have to win on the road to force a game 7. 
4245  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: June 14, 2021, 06:27:24 PM


I recently saw that Bucks defeated Nets to tie the series. I'm so close to win my parlay. I never thought that Bucks will get the momentum of this series and Nets is now struggling to control bucks especially Giannis. Most of the first 5 of nets is not performing well since game 3. Game 5 will be do or die for nets.

The nets could have given the Bucks a good game if Irving was not injured, after he had a bad fall in the 2nd quarter, everything change in favor of the Bucks. We don't know the status of Irving yet but hopefully, Harden will come back in game 5 as that's a very important game for them.

Crucial game and crucial decision for the Nets team. They needed either Harden or Irving to play next game because their chances are slim against the Bucks, which has all the momentum right now. Durant can't do it alone, Joe Harris and Blake Griffin are not providing any scoring help in the last 2 games. And the betting public knows that as the line might open as Bucks being the favourite game 5.

Joe Harris can't score well without a good point guard, he was only effective to the team because he has a lot of open looks, but without Irving and Harden, that would be difficult for the Nets. The inside game is dominated by the Bucks,  if Nets are not shooting well in the outside, then for sure Bucks would kill them in the boards and outside shooting.
That's one thing that goes against Joe Harris, yes he is the highest shooting percentage player, but he can't create his shot. He needs someone like Irving and Harden and a good screen to free him up. So in the first 2 games, the Nets did that exactly, so they didn't missed the services of Harden.

But now that they have lost 2 games in a row and probably Irving, I would say that maybe the Nets are in the panic mode right now. Probably they will see how game 5 will look like. If Irving didn't play and they lose, they there's no choice but either allow Irving to play even if he is not 100%.

Yeah Nets bowing out in the second round is not why they picked up these 3.  Shame they all can't stay on the court together because they would run almost any team off the court.  Kevin might be able to actually pull them through but if Harden and Kylie can't get back to normal they won't go to far that's for sure.
4246  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: bull market end on: June 14, 2021, 02:16:49 PM
so when do you guys think this bull market is going to end.  I'm kinda balls deep in crypto, and I've make some pretty amazing returns.  But im just wondering if any of you guys think this bull run will end anytime soon.

The million dollar question we all want to know, where is the top.  With this historic run up I'd say we are In line for a retrace here soon.  Who knows though this can bust right out upwards again soon.  My money is on some sideways trading for awhile.  Then people will get "bored" and then we will see a drop.
4247  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: When will be bearish market over?? on: June 14, 2021, 01:43:52 PM
In recent  previous days we had explore and observe market, and in the end we got that market are moving like zigzag mean its constantly moving in small zone , without going too upward or too downward. What's the reason behind it??
I am unhappy because it didn't even show any green signal.
So can any told me his opinion about this situation of market. Because I am tired of this😥😥


Why because it doesn't just shoot straight up and make everyone infinitely rich?  Do you really think markets will just shoot straight up and never go sideways or down.  If you can't handle a coue sideways weeks crypto isn't for you, or any investment really.
4248  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Have you given up on airdrop? on: June 14, 2021, 01:40:19 PM
There isn’t anything on the space, nothing, except scam, have you given up or do you still cope and looking for airdrop?

Airdrop participated: 20
Airdrop received to this day: 0
Yes, you heard me, nothing at all, not even one airdrop, that’s how red pilled the space.

As the saying goes it something seems too good to be true it is.  I've never bothered with air drops because of this reason.  99% of the time its a scam or crap or just data collecting. 
4249  Economy / Collectibles / Re: [Question] Where to find holograms for aluminum Casascius coins? on: June 13, 2021, 02:41:21 PM
Hmm he didn't take them down from the webpage, i thought price would adjust but seems they still for sale at .39 btc batch of 500
thought they still for sale but i wouldn't really try.

Yeah wierd I would think he would have taken them down if he wasn't going to still be selling them. 

OP just go on ebay and find stickers that you like.  You won't be getting any casascius holograms to apply on them.
4250  Economy / Collectibles / Re: (Want to share) Beautiful A&G Crypto cello pack PSA 10 on: June 13, 2021, 02:03:35 PM
Congrats on the pack grade.  i haven't seen those value packs for sale at all, so there may not be many more compared to other rarities of cards where packs are still floating around.

if i'm correct, the population count is 5 which puts it in rare air.

i love the unique sized slab on these as well.  it really feels substantial in hand.

when did you send it to psa?  maybe high school graduation and getting it now as an adult?

You are correct, only five total PSA 10  and one PSA 9 exist.  Wasn't a simple task for sure,  but it took 75 days total which was the speed of light at PSA for packs.  

What service level did you choose not value that is like 3 years at this point.  They are 10 months behind on value but takes them a couple days to get through a day's worth of submissions.  I'll feel like I will never see my cards come out of grading at this point lol.  BTW nice score!!
4251  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: DogeCoin will Flip Bitcoin on: June 10, 2021, 11:00:41 PM
If Mcdonalds and  Stabucks start to accept Dogecoin and present it throughout all their shops worldwide. Would it flip Bitcoin?
I think yes because after it tons of other merchans will accept doge and it can easily flip bitocin.

Also if you look at the last 7 days Dogecoin is stable on the 0.5.
It became a stable coin. Elon musks says he woks with dev to impove it.
Bitcoin electricity/techonlogy sucks.

I can see Dogecoin the meme coin flips BTC.

Lol there is no way mcdonalds or Starbucks accepts doge before they do bitcoin.  Everyone is kidding themselves if they think that bitcoin isn't forging ahead with adoption.  Why in bull runs do people completely overlook bitcoin and think (insert coin name) is the next bitcoin.  Buy bitcoin that will get adopted well before something like doge does lol.

The clippers will not be swept by the Jazz,  let's be smart and knows how this playoff goes.

Bet on the Clippers now, double it in game 3 if they'll lose.

This is the best scenario that a martingale method will work, just trust the team, they'll never be like the fate of the Miami Heat.

I wish it was that easy but the jazz have the fire power and really the inside presence with gobert take a sweep happen then you are insanely burnt.  Best case scenerio if the lose this next game is you sweat bullets hoping to break even.  Never chase bets it's a losing strategy.
4253  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: June 10, 2021, 08:34:37 PM
Nuggets never really had a chance during this playoffs without Murray, that dude is their second best player and even though MPJ stepped up and played decently, he is not at playoff level right now, so they needed Murray. It is great that they moved to second round, but I wouldn't be shocked if they get swept here, Jokic is MVP and certainly carrying the team very well but without your second player you are not going to be playing that well.

I personally care about the other side a lot more, Jazz versus Clippers, that is a very good series and I wonder what is going to happen there, we haven't seen anything that would dictate which team will win, sure Jazz won but I think it could turn around as well it wasn't that far off, without one block from Gobert we could have talked differently.

I wouldn't be surprised either if they get swept.  Any team losing your point guard is going to hurt.  Floor general most of times and without your starter the teams flow will never be the same.  I'd like to see them win one in Denver.  But I do hope to see jazz and Suns collide

So I suppose we are +3 +4 for a live draft, 0 against it and 5 4 undecided so far.

I'm ok with a live draft. Dibs on Tim Tebow.

That's a solid pick at kicker
4255  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What do you think are the most promising long term coins on Coinbase right now? on: June 10, 2021, 06:39:52 PM
Only interested in coins available on Coinbase Pro. Don't bother shilling altcoins not on there.

Actually let me just make a list of the coins I could be interested in stacking long term (I'm not including LINK because I already hold it long term):

MKR, XLM, ATOM, XTZ, ZEC, ALGO, KNC, COMP, BAND, YFI, UNI, REN, BAL, FIL, AAVE, GRT, BNT, SNX

Out of those which do you think have legitimately the best chance at long term high adoption and therefore price explosion?

Currently I'm leaning towards ATOM, ALGO, GRT, and BNT as my favs, but just wanted to see what people think who might have done more research on these coins.

I do some trading so I have some of these coins currently but just thinking about holding a few long term.

Thanks Smiley


Uhhhh so where's bitcoin?  All those coins and not one mention of bitcoin.  The best coin for adoption and therefore price explosion is....bitcoin.  sure if you want to gamble on that list go ahead but why not start with the best of all of them?
4256  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Did you fall for the current dip and sell off on: June 10, 2021, 06:36:49 PM
Honestly wanted to ask and to discovered the newbies among us. i though of creating a vote but it is not Necessary.  i really wanted to ask if there are members of this community that sold off during the last dip thinking that the market has crashed. alot of friends kept complaining that bitcoin and alts will go deep down and it will take months before coming back.

Really wanted to find out people that lost their grip and sold off. what really was your main reason for NOT holding...

There plenty of reasons for not holding. Risk aversion, profit taking, etc.  Not saying we are going to go full bear but what's to say that wasn't the first dip.  Easily can.  Crypto has had its share of bears throughout the last 12 years, it isn't a linear line straight up the chart.
4257  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🏈🏈 The American Football Discussion Thread 🏈🏈 on: June 10, 2021, 06:34:42 PM
Definitely like the live drafts.  I've never done an espn one always on the yahoo leagues.  Live drafting is half the fun and half the challenge of getting your team made up.
4258  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: June 10, 2021, 06:32:34 PM
One thing more is that they don't have anything to stop Booker. Nuggets will adjust in their home for sure so lets wait for it Smiley.
Booker scored only 18 points, and he hasn't looked so active in this match as usual. So the Nuggets also need to find a way to stop Paul and Ayton in upcoming matches. Anyway, I guess that the Nuggets will be able to win only one or two games in this series.

Because I think booker hasn't had to do much more.  If they were stopping Paul and the others I'm sure booker would alter his game.  I think the Suns are just too much for the Nuggets.  I would love to see a jazz/Suns west conference final that would be a fun watch.
4259  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: I have 1000 usd , where to invest , on: June 09, 2021, 10:02:27 PM
$999 in bitcoin and the rest of your $1 spread into whatever alts you want lol.  No really focus on big supported coins if anything.  Small cap coins are a wind blow away from being worth nothing unless you are willing to gamble your $1k knowing it will most likely be wiped.
4260  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Dogecoin listed on Coinbase pro on: June 09, 2021, 10:00:43 PM
I fear that coinbase's reputation will suffer from doge. It seems to me that it is not acceptable to promote such coins on serious exchanges.
Such jokes will not end well.  It will all end with the crying of hamsters.

HA! They listed bitcoin cash, what's the difference.  Might as well open the floodgates and let them in.  The real news would(will) be when they open doge up on the retail side and really open the floodgates.  Think it will get a decent push when that happens
