4281  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: When do you expect the Altcoin rally? on: March 08, 2021, 11:12:11 PM
Altcoin rally happens by itself for now I see altcoins can go up by themselves without the need for full btc help I know the price of btc will affect altcoins but not entirely.
Altcoin rally doesn't happen by itself cause it precisely happens footing market (traders/investors) decision and this current altcoin rally happen through the help of Bitcoin cause Bitcoin market usually help cryptocurrency market to gain outstanding traffic whenever it halving. However, the momentum and greenish price of Bitcoin during the total lockdown when every market setting was experiencing a dump in price is the reason why most altcoins gained institutional investor's affection.
It all lies in the hands of investors, if they don't have a huge interest in altcoins, we don't expect to see Altcoins will have the rally.

As for now, investors are investing more in Bitcoin a reason why the price remains high while altcoins still at low. But I was not hopeless not to think that altcoins will have some rise. Patience, coz I know that someday these investors will soon consider and sees altcoins potentials. It is just a matter of time that Bitcoin is really hot, a lot of people expecting then than altcoins.

We should be wise and just follow those who could influence people to invest in a good coin not just for their own motive.


The challenge is that most times investors don't follow top coins because of the price. Example bnb coin that went high wasn't really that as people weren't hodling it but trading it until it went this high. Stellar too is of good value but is not being used. This is how opportunities are lost but shit coins are invested on because of cheap publicity on media especially from owners and team faking figures to attract investors.
Because in their minds is that they can be more profitable if they bought coins that are at cheap prices. They are thinking that this coin will be in hypes someday and doubled their investment. But I'm not sure if this still works because, at this time, there are no such hypes happening in the crypto market.

Social media is very influential to the market, Elon Musk did the tweet, people are to follow then. But if we look at how Doge been promoted by Elon, I see no big change in the price, still below $1. This means that even social media and know personality can't really give a huge influence on the market as the people had already learned from the past.

Lol, it looks like the rumors are true.

Sorry, TnT. Ray Parks' number cannot be reached at this time

May Parks is too spoiled, he might have loss his interest playing in the PBA as he believe he can play with other leagues.
he cannot be contacted, that means he is not being professional, and he doesn't deserve to be in the business.

Give that spot to a more deserving player, many players are dying to play in the PBA.

Yeah, you are right mate, Ray Parks who doesn't have achievements yet in the PBA is playing hard to get and it seems that he thinks he could get whatever he wanted but that's not the way things should work.

He should honor the contract he has signed with the Katropa or else faced the consequences of his action. Last time I've heard that TnT management is planning to file legal action against Parks for what he has done.

It's a good thing that they will bring this matter to the court to serve as a warning for those who are planning to do the same.



I hope the TNT management will be serious with that so he will learn his lesson. Why can't he just follow Fajardo who remains humble and professional to his job even over achieving in the PBA already. Looks like Ray Parks will not last in the PBA.

Anyone here bet on Giannis Antetokounmpo to win the MVP?

I looked at the odds and he was +650... That was a very generous odds if one were able to put a bet on him.

Giannis is no doubt a good player but compared to all other player like KD and LBJ, he is just a powerful forward that good on scoring by himself. The criteria of being an MVP doesn't suit him well on an All-star tournament. The odds simply shows how tough other players as contender for the title.

Giannis might someday won a championship, then he will get the respect he deserve.
He is a talented player and Lebron was too start drafting Giannis. if it's the East vs West (old format), it should be a fair match.

As we can see, the Team Lebron is obviously too much for Team Durant, and since Lebron is not too aggressive and looks like he doesn't want to force winning an MVP, so Giannis gets the benefit as he is strong in side the paint.
4285  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How To Protect Yourself In This Situation on: March 06, 2021, 10:34:57 PM
Well, I think you can't protect yourself in this situation. BTC price volatility is jumping through thousands. Maybe you will have more grains if you will make bigger interval between buy/sell orders but no one can guarantee you that price will go down and down instead of up and vice versa.
SECURITY is a big challenge for us especially when we are buying Bitcoin during the Bullrun and even holding couldn't guarantee that it keeps our fund safely, unless if we are buying during the bear season that most likely the price will move high than during this time.

In the current situation and the high volatility risk of the market, we need not emotionally affected by a few market corrections. We need to stand for what we believe but for me, I'll take every opportunity I saw and I don't hesitate to sell then if there is a chance. We have to play the market wisely.
4286  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Learning is better than Following on: March 05, 2021, 10:41:59 PM
I'd mentor one person before and I take that opportunity to learn more. This is a process, even you learn from youtube but you are still following someone, do the subscriptions and follow what they say.

It finds no wrong for me, that is how we develop our knowledge but of course, we have not to keep relying on them. It is a need for us to make our own and trust ourselves. This is a way to test ourselves if we are truly enough to take the challenge and stand our own feet using the learning that we have.
4287  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: DeFi hacks is becoming a joke on: March 05, 2021, 10:20:04 PM

I would have to stay firm on my beliefs that this project went to reality, sometimes it's gonna be exhausting to Wait for further updates but I am still hoping to see more positive updates on this. Let's see in the upcoming months what's going to be initiated next, for now let's chill and be patient while DeFi hasn't yet come to success.
I don't think that someone just keeps relaxing and calm because that was alarming for me, though. If we can remember ICO/IEO before, they're doing this as a way to make an easy exit while carrying the money if their investors and gone, no updates after that. I suspected this as a sort of exit scam Defi projects, they are exactly be doing the same again and again.

This is not a road to success but it leads to common losses and failures.
4288  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: WHAT happened to goosebet.io on: March 05, 2021, 02:28:24 PM
As I see they are closing now? I thought this project will stay long the good thing is that they allow players to withdraw some projects just go away without any notice with the player's fund. Well let's hope to see new upcoming gambling sites here in the forum.

I'm not sure if that is true, because the main purpose of this thread is to tell the community that this site is not anymore allowing a withdrawal or some accounts are freeze by the site. So probably there are gamblers also that are scam by this site.
4289  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Canelo Alvarez vs Billy Joe Saunders - May 8 on: March 05, 2021, 02:17:46 PM
Saunders trainers has speak up:

Quote
Mark Tibbs, head trainer for WBO super middleweight champion Billy Joe Saunders, feels confident that his boxer can pull off a major upset when he faces WBC, WBA champion Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez.

The two boxers are scheduled to collide on May 8th, with the location to be determined.

https://www.boxingscene.com/saunders-trainer-confident-perfect-game-plan-derail-canelo--155903

So I don't know what will be the perfect game plan to beat a fighter like Canelo's caliber at 168 lbs. With no known weaknesses at his armor, it's going to be very hard for Saunders to overcome Canelo, probably a lucky punch can Canelo didn't see coming.


It was Mike Tyson who says that everybody has a plan until they get hit in the face, they can have the best plan in the world, but if their boxer cannot take a punch then they better bid goodbye to that plan, the best plan is to have an iron chin and a big punch, I'm excited on the match after Saunders maybe the Charlo brothers will come next.

If a fighter is hit and he think he can't take the hit anymore, he will change his plan, instead of winning he will change it to surviving. I've seen a lot of fights in the past already that a cocky boxer trying to intimidate the champion but when he taste the punch, he change his style and just try to survive the 12 rounds.
4290  Economy / Speculation / Re: btc dump today and yesterday on: March 05, 2021, 02:03:02 PM

snipped~

Normal, this dump is not quite bigger, but this natural and easy to get back. I mean if Bitcoin dump you will do cutloss on other side you know that your money will back. Hold your Bitcoin and if dump buying more. No scare about dump if you HOLD Bitcoin. Except after huge pump like in 2017
Bitcoin has pumped a lot compared to 2017 and will not go down as much as it went down. Bitcoin has broken all its records there is nothing to be disappointed about even if dumped bitcoin will come back to its maximum speed again the price of bitcoin has risen a little compared to a few days ago. Holding on will make traders profitable and market volatility will increase again.
2021 shows the continuous market gain, we have some corrections but it rallies back shortly. This means that it has positive looks that we never see before. During the last 2017 Bullrun, Bitcoin and cryptocurrency are so hot in the news, business groups, social media but none had pushed more to step beyond $20k, but last year, we easily break the last ATH and it was double this time.

And this makes me think about the next halving, and that $100k is quite possible to reach if the same scenario will happen 3-4 years from now.
4291  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Crypto trading signal work or not? on: March 05, 2021, 01:39:22 PM
I just want to join paid crypto trading group..anyone pls tell me ,this type of group doing scam or not? and does it work?
I would like to say is that you just be careful. I don't want to draw a conclusion that crypto trading groups are scammy or it never works. I don't have any experience with them because there are so many groups like this but as we heard most, they can't be trusted nor their trading signals is effective.

But it's up to you to try then, that gonna be a sort of experience and so it helps your awareness. But for me, I have to use my own TA, because the reality is that, no one could predict right for the future happening. All these signal are just the same if we do ourselves, it can be right or even wrong. 
4292  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: After Tesla, others began to pay attention to Bitcoin. Is this the future trend on: March 05, 2021, 06:12:26 AM
BlackRock executives: We have begun to get involved in Bitcoin

Global asset management giant BlackRock fixed income chief investment officer Rick Rieder revealed in the SquawkBox financial plan that the company has begun to get involved in Bitcoin.

Now, the big bosses have begun to take action.
We are going to expect more changes as Bitcoin becomes trending. Not only rich people and big companies had been in talks about Bitcoin, small businesses, lower and the middle class have also shown interest. Maybe we could ask why?

Market innovations seem to work so well, we expecting Bitcoin will give us the hassle's free life, and yes, we are not disappointed. But as the market becomes bigger and wider, fees are hanging terrible and sad to say that it is a really unfavorable condition if this will be going to continue. Plus, long delays on blockchain confirmation which could possibly give an option for some to loss their interest.
4293  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin, I salute your final ATH. on: March 04, 2021, 11:28:46 PM
Whoo, I impress Bitcoin since I join in crypto, and it was not deniable that everything could be possible in Bitcoin. Rich people had come, known and big companies are also coming, pushing the price high. Some say $1000 is not achievable, it just likes to say $50k is too far when we are at $5k.

Every person had their own predictions over a price.It may be high or low,it only  based on the market flow,demand.The price crossed the new time high of 50k$ and make a new people to get into the bitcoin.It's a solid project and it holding will give you a more profit.
We've been solid since before, people did not notice that because of their negative thoughts, they are ignoring Bitcoin but now, they got crazy looking at the price surging high, making another ATH.
4294  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: HoDL Pays Off Finally on: March 04, 2021, 11:05:15 PM
This is absolutely true for the coins you mentioned and for other top 10 to 20 coins. Patience is a virtue and that pays off. Always long-term investments are preferable which gives low risk with maximum returns.
When it comes to investment, the long-term goal will really at work. People who are disappointed because they never reach their goal are also because they are not willing to wait, they wanted instant, and that they were given just only a small chunk while the other is taken the more than of what they think.

We are definitely be hearing regrets why they never hold their Bitcoin and their altcoins. But first, we have to ask ourselves why we don't have the courage and faith towards crypto? Why we listen to the FUDs? This is why only a few people did this while the majority are already in the selling since last year as the price reaches $20k plus.
4295  Economy / Speculation / Re: For all of you scared of the current dip on: March 04, 2021, 02:56:26 PM

At some point i do understand why they have felt that way, why they have this urgency to take all the profit that they think they can take, why they just panic that way to sell their let say bitcoin because it is way better to sold it in a $45k than the much lower than it, or should i say they have their most reason. But on the other hand, i could say that i hope they did left or saved a bitcoin for them that they can used to trade again when the market gets in bull again because its better to save it there than buying again for a much higher value than the value you have sold it when bear market. Yeah, their emotions dominates most with this aspect.
Emotions is quite hard to break when an opportunity tempts us when it talks about money. Other people would quickly decide once there's chance to earn profit instead of having zero in the end of their trades. If could turn back time, maybe if I saved all of those btc I had during those days that it's so cheap at price below $1k. This year 2021 I would be one of those millionaires in crypto, but unfortunately it didn't happen.
We have been brag by ourselves and that temptation is really affecting our minds but we can't deny also sometimes have been lucky. Well, for me, selling at this time is not the wrong decision. because if you are an opportunist person, you will certainly grab the chance and you will be selling by now.

I give respect to these people, they are doing right, they are profiting, and that was great. But why some people disagree with these doings is that they would like to hold longer but these panic sellers are not. And they will treat the market differently compared to long-term holder investors.

Toronto Raptors @ Boston Celtics.

The betting spread is +8.5 for Raptors, I love the Raptors but why the line seems so unbelievable?
Does anyone here have an idea about the current line, why too easy for the Raptors?
4297  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: March 04, 2021, 12:25:14 PM
This run by harden has been awesome.  I know he had a trip d last night but the most impressive thing to me is his efficiency.  29 points on 15 fg attempts.  He was known as a chucker in Houston but possibly what you were seeing is him doing what he needed to do on that team.  He looks way more comfortable on this team and looks like a league mvp playing out there.



Exactly, lots of speculation when Harden was traded, some people think there will be a chemistry issue but we did not see it, Irving and him are trusting each other, they can both score when necessary and most importantly the ball movement was very efficient, hence resulting to a better FG for not only Harden and Irving but the entire team.
4298  Economy / Speculation / Re: FUDs be damned - BTC moving up again on: March 03, 2021, 02:07:08 PM
$43k was the bottom and now Bitcoin is heading back up. Expect new ATHs later this month. Maybe we get next correction at $80k?
I have noticed that in every price correction there will have a strong spike on the market. I couldn't think it was the FUD's helping people to be more aggressive in buying back or the FOMOeng is really making the possible.  
Quote
Maybe we get next correction at $80k?
Yep, maybe. But that was close to possibility than overly thinking about $100k within this year.
$100k is really high, I can't tell if people will still have the courage to take the risk or just to find another form of investment.  
4299  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Huge profit but how to withdraw on: March 03, 2021, 01:25:57 PM
the solutions are many and just as easy, first leave them in the usdt and get a wirex-type card and change a little just for use, second use hand swaps/change or ATMs, third make transfers through exchanges

Or better yet, if he has a friend, relative or anyone that he can trust outside of his country, who is residing in a crypto-friendly area, he can ask a favor to convert his crypto into fiat. And then send the fiat to him, of course just pay his friend for the trouble. Also, hope that he can find a friend who is familiar in dealing with crypto.
That could be the best option, otherwise, OP has to wait until the time that crypto is welcome in their country.

Banning, not allowing people to use and trade their cryptos, are some reason why some people are not quite interested in crypto anymore. How could have the sense if we just ended like this, unable to withdraw. It just like we are throwing our money outside.

I can imagine how OP is mad for his situation. May He have friends outside his country to make a favor so he can also benefit from the hard work he put on his investment.

We have some big game tomorrow.

Jazz vs 76ers.
 
Jazz playing the best season but 76ers is also a tough team.
Per betting odds, Jazz is the favorite, which team do you think will win, and why?

Please share some thoughts.

76ers will win this game as they are playing on their home court. Jazz is good but I like to cheer on the 76ers as Embiid is playing and he will have a good night. I am just assuming though because I know Embiid is unstoppable even with Gobert's long arms.
