Hi everyone.
I could really use your help! And I hope it’s OK to wirte it here.

I am a student at a Danish university, and I am writing a master thesis about ICO’s from a “investor” point of view. This is an exploratory research as there is a lack in academia in this area. I am looking for some persons to interview in regard to ICO’s and the experience. This will some way also relate to traditional investments and/or crowdfunding.
The interview will take approx. 30 min, it could be over Skype or something alike and I will keep your anonymity.

So, if you have participated in an ICO and you want to help me, please send a pm. It will be very much appreciated!

Thanks

That would be a nice research and very interesting to read.
I am not sure if you will find the volunteers to make a skype call interview of 30 mins. The time is kinda "too much" for someone who will not get much from this process. You should maybe make a questionnaire or a document with some questions that you would like to ask in the interview for saving some time.
Feel free to share the results of the research here. I will be happy to read them.

@LTU_b, @slocker. I would then speculate that Sebastian might make the transfer to Mercedes. However, with the new engine specifications beginning on 2021, he might be driving for only the 2nd fastest car again hehehehe.

Seb is going to make a transfer to Mercedes only if Hamilton retires. If not, the team doesn't have any benefit of having two drivers that compete for the title. It will bring only conflict.

Though, I'd like to see if Giannis could stop KD. But I think Giannis did slow down KD last time but the splash brothers did there thing. This season is quite interesting, First is that Lebron will not be playing in the PO and the teams in the East are really putting up a show.

I'm going to bet on the Bucks if they will face with the warriors in the NBA finals.
Bucks knows how to beat the warriors, and they have the best record in the league, so it's going to be a big advantage for them in terms of home court.

I hope to see Giannis playing amazingly in this match and defeat Warriors and especially KD.
It will be a difficult game because Warriors team is always a considerable rival that can cause problems. And don't forget that Bucks don't have the experience that GSW players have in difficult matches.

I think many gamblers alike will agree with me that gambling can be exciting most of the time.   The joy and satisfaction you feel when you call it right is amazing.  Its funny though that society frowns so much at gambling even though like most things in life, its just risk management.  Like any other investment type, there is potential to lose it all because in the end, it still gambling.  Just with varying risk levels.

Although a relatively new form of trading (Apparently), digital options is fast becoming popular due apparently to its simplicity.   A simple choice of choosing that a stock, commodity or currency will go high or low in its value over a specific time frame.    There is also a fast (turbo) mode with around 30 seconds expiration time with potential returns of as much as 90%.   Question is, how is that still trading if you can't be sure of what might or will happen in that short time frame?

Safe to say we humans can be very greedy  Grin.  Admittedly, increased risks come with potentially higher returns which is what attracts many of us.  Funny thing is that we all gamble one way or the other.  Some better at it than others.  Smart gamblers/traders tend to assess their losses to see how they can improve.      

IMO, digital options is a type of gambling but then again what isn't?

You are right at same point.
I remember myself when I was full on gambling and eventually lost the funds that I had for gambling, to turn to investment opportunities such as trading. For me, people will still prefer the traditional gambling because anyone can gamble. Trading needs knowledge if you want to perform efficiently.
But, yes I can agree that all digital options are a type of gambling.

I don't remember my first bet but I remember the first time that I won my bet.
It was that time of the week that I was expecting to sit in my desk read some details about matches and bet in order to relax from the hectic pace of the week.
I selected 4 matches and I was busy that I couldn't track the results at that day so I managed to see if I won my bets the day after. When I realized that I won I was so happy that I called immediately my brother to announce it.
Sadly, this was the time that I started betting and gambling more!

I saw the highlight video and this game seems very violent.
Personally, i think that there is a lot of dirt in fighting sports because they care a lot about money and most of the times they manipulate games especially in this category where it is not widely known.
4328  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: April 09, 2019, 10:04:06 AM
You know, I actually thought BVB learnt their lesson in naivety back in the Champions League, losing out to supposedly equal opposition. They lost me money on both legs of that knockout too. You go up against a giant who's down but recovering, you cover your bases, not go for an impossible kill. 4-0 at HT? Seriously, if the #2 in the league loses that badly, then Bayern probably deserve to win after all.

Less pissed about losing money on them than the scoreline. But okay, they're young. Need to learn their lessons.

Bayern were by far the better team on the reverse fixture as well even though Dortmund eventually one it. It was a great game to watch regardless. I was very disappointed by the performance of BVB on Saturday. They got absolutely tuned over and this was their chance to clinch or at least stay in the title race. I had a couple of small bets on the game but only a few dollars. Put both teams to score in each half and had both teams to score with Bayern win with Barca to win and both teams to score as a two fold. Athletico failed to score as well. Didn't watch the game but I thought  ATM would have had a bit more fight in them as this was essentially their last ditch attempt to stay in the title race also.

Bayern was better in the reverse fixture because they have quality players on the bench and the manager can make rotation.
The last match between Bayern and Dortmund doesn't depict the clear picture of the Bundesliga rally so far because Dortmund was playing really good football till now. I hope that next season will come more close to win the title.

Chelsea need a win tonight, if they have any chance of getting top 4 then this is a game that they can’t afford to drop points in.

Hazard have given then the lead already, Just after 23 minutes with a beautiful fine solo effort. More goals to come for Chelsea in this I think.
With the lead Chelsea have moved to 3rd position 2 points and 3 points ahead of Tottenham and Arsenal respectively, while both teams would have a match in hannd.

What a goal man! What a goal!
I totally support Chelsea but Hazard needs to move to a bigger club, where he will be able to win titles and play competitive football.
It is sad that Chelsea can't offer him anything more right now.
4330  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2018-2019 on: April 09, 2019, 09:12:19 AM
I think Liverpool will have an easy win today if they take this game as they should seriously.If not they risk big tonight as Porto is in great shape and this is shown by them coming up this far in the Champions League.

Tottenham and Manchester City is a difficult game to predict but Manchester City should win or at least qualify.

You should not undermine any team that has reached so far in the contest.
Porto is not easy team to win and Liverpool should respect them in the pitch. The difference between these two teams are huge, but Porto can give some hard times to Liverpool anytime.

Here is one rule to trade in profit ! Use the right trade machine and all !)
Try that software and you love it https://github.com/CryptoProfitTeam/tradelab
Works with 10 exchanges now !

I don't trust softwares for my trading decisions.
Softwares are really good for assisting by providing much data and patents but they can't consider the most significant factor in trading which is emotion and the feelings of the traders and the market.
4332  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bulls need time on: April 08, 2019, 10:05:46 AM
I wouldn't be so pessimistic at all.

If you watched charts on exchanges - especially orderbooks and candlesticks - in the past 2-3 weeks, you could see that the bears clearly lack of volume. The bulls "attack" more frequently and every several days we're seeing new highs. Sudden dumps currently only seem to occur when huge stop orders have been executed.

Quote
Finally, Relative Strength Index is a lagging indicator. So, it interprets what has already happened but not what will happen.

First time i see someone on the forum actually pointing that out! Good job.


Maybe after all this time that we were at a bear market they wouldn't make any profit from trading.
It seems like bulls are taking action slowly but steadily because they want to make some good profits after all this time that we were suffering due to the market decline.

I am thinking to buy a new computer. Fun. Wondering what you guys use?

Any special computer or just any ol' machine will do?! Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Do you have a VPN or a personal Hotspot?

What Virus Protection do you use?  How about... Mac Afee?

Mac or a DELL?Huh Cool Cool

I personally use a laptop because it is convenient for me to take it with me and make my trades when I am on the move.
The best option that I would go for, is based on the number of the screens that I would like to have. Three screens would be a good setup for me that will help me take better decisions, but due to my life pace I don't have the time to spend time on the monitors.
4334  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will bitcoin remain above $4000 this time around? on: April 08, 2019, 08:20:50 AM
Yeah sure it's not impossible, that price range can be easily attained with little time I meant it even surpassed that price range to a certain level which none would think of and the aggressive rate it has shown was not a thing that could comprehend easily. The thing is it will not settle for a price that is certain with long periods of time.
well, this time I'm also very sure that the price of bitcoin will really be above the price of $ 4000. now the price development is happening quite fast. even I feel that the price will continue to grow far above the price of $ 4000.

Price seem to have found a new stable point at above 5k. I'm not hoping for an early bull run but just for us to hold this support line and then we can move forward from there. We're slowly getting back to the point where we stayed for a long time last november  so let's get back there first eh?

I totally agree. It is ppositive to see that the market stabilizes above 5k.
It is a good level that maybe will show some resistance if the prices starts falling. I don't hope that the bull market has started yet as you do, but I am ambitious and optimistic that we are in a good way of reaching a green market.
4335  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: April 08, 2019, 07:50:36 AM
Lazio-Sasuolo  2-2  two goals in last two min
Atalanta-Inter 0-0
Serie A  @Harkorede I love that game

Both matches were expected to be tensed due what's at stake for Lazio, Atalanta and Inter...

I'm looking forward to Napoli win, it's the last game on one of my parlay bets.

Napoli played poorly, unable to defeat Genoa even though Genoa played with 10 players lol I'm sure many people are surprised



I really can't understand why Napoli plays so bad in these last matches.
They got defeated by Empoli and now they couldn't win against Genoa. Does that seem that the team is tired or they keep some power and energy for the Europa League matches?
4336  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: April 08, 2019, 07:43:52 AM
• United may sell De Gea rather than lose him for nothing in 2020
I thought that De Gea's contract expires at the end of this season. I heard rumours a few months ago that Juventus would be interested and would go for De Gea because he is free. Szczesny would be sold in that case and the money from that sale would be reinvested in another player.

De Gea is also interesting because he is from Spain and Juve is looking for more marketing and bigger share of the Spanish market.  

I think if De Gea is available for transfer then PSG will be interested. I would have said Real too but they signed Courtois & he’s pretty good too.

Not so sure. PSG have extended Buffon's contract and they've kept Areola too long now not to make him number one some day.
A GK isn't their priority. A defensive midfielder, a left back and possibly an offensive player if one of their three attackers leaves will be what they're looking for.
But De Gea would definitely be a big plus for them.

And Man United is risking losing him for free on 2020 if they don't sell him this summer.  Real has Courtios anyway, who Zidane doesn't want to play for some reason.  Get him and some cash for De Gea would be the best deal imo.

I dont think that United is so fool to leave him free agent and not making money from such a skilled player.
The unfortunate for him is that all the big clubs has already a great goalkeeper in their squad so there is no room for him. He will manage to be on the first team only if a big club sells its current main goalkeeper of swap him with Manchester United.
4337  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Are airdrops really worth it? on: April 08, 2019, 07:39:19 AM
I have participated in airdrops several times, it is indeed not difficult to do what I was told, but it is very unfortunate that what is received is not good, can be considered small. It's better to avoid following airdrops only to take your time and not be profitable, never know there are airdrops that can produce more.

These days too many people join airdrops and aside from that many of them use more than one accounts in order to receive aidrops.
This fact reduces the amount of coins that it spread between participants but actually gives more coins to the few (the ones that have the multiple accounts joined).
4338  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2018-2019 on: April 08, 2019, 07:34:53 AM
Juventus vs Liverpool or Juventus vs Barcelona final would be the best!

City vs Barcelona is my take.
Barcelona is always on the top without struggling too much. Also, Manchester City should go to the final for once and i think that this season is their chance. Guardiola can make this team to win the Champions League for the first time.

Barcelona will surely meet Liverpool, I'm a Barca supporter so of course I want to see that but even being objective you have to see how Porto can't progress and United will be too problematic with injuries and suspensions. United will try to win the first game, and depending on how it turns out, they may not even try too hard. They have a good spirit but they simply don't have the team to do it. They have 1 eye on top 4 too, and that's a better chance than winning CL.

I know we can beat Liverpool too, but it all rests on if we can win at home, and not lose away. The Reds don't play well this season, not like last season at all.

You can expect  The Reds best play in most important games
It is already super class team with fantastic coach supported by great fans
LFC can win any game ahead of  them

You said it right. They are a fantastic team, because Jurgen Klopp made them to be so good. Without this coach Lieverpool wouldn't go so far.
It is a team to be afraid of but I think that in matches with big clubs they are going to be stressed and they will not manage to compete in the 100% of their powers.
4339  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2016/17 on: April 08, 2019, 07:26:25 AM
Goal! Come on you cules! Barcelona 1 - 0 Atletico Madrid
League Secured!  Forca Barça!!!

EDIT: Guess who just made it 2 - 0, Messi did! It's all over...

Wow, now we can say that Barca is champions of 2018/19 season. I already heard Barca fans chanting ''Campeones' after Suarez and Messi goals.
Atletico defense was very solid tonight and they forced Barca to change something in their game. Tonight we saw many shots of Barca from outside the box what is not typical for them. And one shot ended with amazing Suarez goal. Despite that conceded 2 goals, Oblak was man of the game tonight in my opinion, he made so many amazing saves tonight.
And Diego Costa showed himself from ugly side again....

Now Barcelona is the real champions of this season. Kinda sad because La Liga was a championship that had a rivalry for the title till the end of the season.
Diego Costa would be a great player and can be a player of Real or Barca, and clubs in general that can make a triple ground in one season but he has so bad behavior sometimes which undermines his skills.
4340  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: April 08, 2019, 07:23:41 AM
Surprised Everton beat Arsenal, that battle for 3rd & 4th (the last 2 available CL qualification spots) is so toght. Will be really close between Man U, Chelsea, Spurs & Arsenal to see who gets them.



Yes this is indeed a surprise, but when watching the match I agreed that Everton deserved to win even win with more than one goal


I didn’t watch the Everton vs Arsenal game, I was just kind of surprised by the result. Arsenal should be winning that game if they have any serious ideas about getting CL football next season.

The most important fact for me is that now Arsenal lost the 3rd position and the rally is on fire again.
Chelsea can also make it to the 3rd position (from 5th) if they will be lucky to win all matches and Arsenal and Tottenham lose some points in the next matches.
