Hakimi definitely doesn't warrant a price like 60 million during this period, the world is in a big trouble or at least getting better nowadays and the football clubs couldn't make any money at all, there is no way any team should pay this much to get Hakimi, he is a good player and if this pandemic didn't happen and teams finished the season, some team may have paid him that much but not anymore, or at least hopefully not anymore.

However if Hakimi gets sold for 60, I am %100 sure Madrid is buying Kante with that money, he would be PERFECT for Madrid and he would definitely take them to a higher level next season. They were looking for Pogba as well if he doesn't go to Juventus, a Pogba+Kante midfield would be like a dream come true for Real Madrid and would get them so much pressure at that position against other teams.

It is a very tricky subject to go against and criticize the players as well, you can't say anything because if you do either you are a bigot who doesn't understand science or the other one is you are racist and hate blacks. For example, I would like to say something like ; these players have gone outside to protest what has happened to blacks in the nation, yet they do not want to play in NBA with a fear of getting the said sickness, if you are afraid of the sickness why did you go out to protest?

Now this doesn't say you hate blacks, this doesn't say players should play neither, this just talks about a dilemma and whenever you say something like this people blame you for being a bigot and racist, when you are the one who has supported these people for over 2 decades but nobody knows that.

There is a huge difference between betting 2 bitcoins total and betting 1.6 bitcoin all at once. Since there is no competition I am not entirely sure if HDF would try to go beyond burritodick, I mean if there was something in return maybe he would try to beat him in order to become first and get the first place prize, but since there is no competition and the leaderboard is there just as a design thing and nothing important, I believe there is really no reason for hdf to try and beat him aside from just accessory type of deal.

Maybe there could be some sort of achievements and badges what not even if no prizes, that way people would at least work for a badge, even if it worths zero and no prize, there would still be a goal. If not, I think being third is more than enough in a leaderboard with no prizes.

competitions prize are low, site is nice, i <3 plinko
Competition prizes are another reason why it looks like the website is not as awesome as it used to be but still awesome.

They used to give away 0.2 bitcoin rewards and now it is 0.03 rewards, that is really all you need to know about what happened between those days and this day. I am not saying 0.03 is bad, it is still an awesome amount, we are talking about giving away 200 dollars and that is a ton of money to give away in a competition where most likely people would gamble anyway, so it is 200 dollars extra free to people.

However we are talking about 0.1 bitcoin winning just for the first place versus 0.03 to everyone involved, you can see how they moved down a lot, just because it is awesome right now doesn't mean it was better before, and just because it used to be higher doesn't mean it is not awesome right now.
4385  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: FOMO In Crypto; How to identify It on: June 13, 2020, 06:08:55 PM
The best case is to see the price jump way too much than it should. There is really no easier method then checking the price of any coin. If you see something going up over 10% and you want to buy, that is FOMOing and you should not do it, same with going down as well, do not worry when it goes down, just buy it discounted.

People do get into bitcoin and other crypto when the price suddenly starts going up, but the reality is you should have bought before it went up. Many people keep saying "how could I know when it will go up before it does" like it is impossible to guess, but look at the price on any other day, you will see that price is not going up every single day, it is usually either going down or staying around the same prices. Buy when it is like that and only sell when it goes up.

In the past on this forum, there had been a lot of people shared about quitting trading and that this community has been always tried to convince them to learn and then to proceed their trading; not sure what has happened to them after that but there are responsible community members here who are always suggesting about learning so that people will never need to leave off crypto trading.

There cannot be anything to do when people are getting frustrated and then deciding to quit trading, other than suggesting them to take a break and then try to focus on learning part of trading.

I never agreed to the myth of trading is not for everyone. Definitely it is suitable for everyone because there are different kinds of trading approaches are available and definitely at least one type of trading will be profitable for OP as well. I'm seeing a lot of people are sharing like long-term holding of bitcoin is profitable way of trading for them; I believe it is more suitable for any trader.
4387  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: A trading chart does not play out to 100% on: June 13, 2020, 03:19:23 PM
There cannot be anything to make you sure about 100% accurate of future movements. This is because, we are all predicting the future of market based on past movements but future is simply influenced by many other factors and not just limited to past. So, there cannot be any tool/chart available to get you 100% accurate predictions.

Moreover most tools and charts are known for lagging in providing any clear signal. It means they may show you just what happened and you need to interpret what is going to happen which cannot be accurate all the times because it would be just a guess work but based on past things (and not purely 100% guess work). Also, I have seen some advanced tools are "overwriting", it means for example will show you buy signal at $10100 levels but markets is trading at $10400 levels (I tried to wait to buy at $10100 but it showed target reached at $10800).
4388  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bankera..3 years after ICO...a money grab ICO??? on: June 12, 2020, 07:42:14 PM
Yeah when it is 3 years later and there is still no change, you know it is a big scam. There is no way to actually "prove" a scam but to call it one. You can't just get all the owners and find their personal records, all their bank details and all their crypto wallets and see what they have spent the money they collected on and figure out if they actually did it for personal gain or did that for the coin. That is not the data we could reach right now so there is no way to actually "prove" it.

However, has anyone in their right mind would have any questions about a scam when for 3 years people who have collected your money did nothing at all? If someone takes 3 years to do even the simplest thing, that is not just failure, that is outright scam and there is no questions about it.
4389  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Someone just paid $2,6M in fees while sending just $133 in ETH on: June 12, 2020, 06:37:20 PM
Who ever did this is so stupid. I believe he wished he checked the network fee before he clicked the send button. May be he is so busy and doesnt care about the transaction fee because he has a lot of ETH on his wallet.
I don't know, but I think, when he did it, maybe he was drunk, because if this is a bug, I don't think it's possible, if not drunk, it might be intentional, considering that the misdirection of this fee occurred again after this incident with an almost similar amount of $ 2.5M.
Yeah that is the thing about these transactions, we really don't know why anyone would do it knowingly and why this could be anything at all, we are trying to see a reason why anyone would do this to benefit themselves and we are having hard time finding it out. Fee is something that usually goes to miners, am I missing something there? Isn't it the miners who get the fee?

If that is the case, and if that person is willing to lose that much money to miners, that means in order to profit from this, he has to make sure that he gets it back (or anyone he knows that is a miner) and how can you be so sure about mining a certain block with that money in it? Or maybe there is some other blockchain feature that I am not aware of? I really have ZERO clue about what someone could gain from doing this, no idea.
4390  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Bounty hunters United we stand on: June 12, 2020, 06:04:49 PM
You say you are standing united but at the same time whenever there is a bounty where some project gives out 10 cents for 10000 people you still all fill that bounty. I mean sure stand together and ask for better bounties but at the same time unless you start to not really show any attention to bad ones, how are you going to get their attention?

I know right now if I start a project I can just give pennies on the dollar, hell just create some fake coin myself and make you work for it as well, yet there will be thousands of people that will apply from all over the internet if I do that. So, why do you think project owners who knows this will suddenly start listening to the needs and requests of the bounty hunters who are not united and who do not posses any threat?
4391  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Any use for failed cryptos? on: June 12, 2020, 04:04:14 PM
There cannot be anything we can do out of failed cryptos. In recent times, I have seen a discussion about how to remove dead tokens from ethereum addy; I conclude that dead tokens are becoming a problem like spam thanks to ethereum and and their innovation of smart contracts. I'm not kind of person blaming technology for human's mistake but at the same time ethereum and their intensive support to host ICO definitely led to end of interest for many people here. Yes, ethereum is not the first coin to offer platform for smart contract.

The only thing you can do with failed coins and project is to learn not repeating the same mistakes for both projects and investors.
At least for the prices we had paid for those coins/tokens, we should remember those lessons. Unfortunately people are known for forgetting lessons and repeating mistakes and this is the reason for scammers are still existing.
4392  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: June 11, 2020, 04:44:57 PM
Jordan Sancho is said to be 120 million euro in value right now on transfarmarkt right now, it is really not that easy to get a player like that. Of course, he would be amazing in Liverpool but lets be honest he would probably be amazing anywhere he goes. I do not doubt his talents but I doubt if Liverpool could spend that much money during the worst financial situation of football has ever been in just to get one more player.

Liverpool is already leading the league in a record breaking point situation and I feel like maybe they would be just enough without any transfers and spending any money. That way they could just wait another year, already got the title, and just focus on next year, that way they could spend a lot less money or at least see how finances will be like.
4393  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread on: June 09, 2020, 08:32:37 PM
I do not really buy into all of this City becoming the biggest over night thing, United was big for around 3 decades, when did City moved beyond them and became the biggest right away, sure they are either the best team or second best team NOW but being a "big club" is not just past 5 years, it is not past 10 years neither, you have to look at the whole history of the teams (okay maybe after 1970's) and I feel like there are many other bigger clubs than City.

The thing about City that they spent so much money on their team to actually become good that they eventually had to break financial fair play rules to keep it up, otherwise they couldn't be this good, which is cheating and if you became good by cheating that really doesn't even count in my mind, everybody could be good by cheating.
4394  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: June 09, 2020, 07:58:15 PM
Pogba is 27 years old, there is no more "developing" for him, he needs to make as much money as he can in the next 3 years because the salary he will make will go down after that and he will retire after a while, so the next 3 years is his time to make as much money as he can.

Juventus paying him a low salary is just an assumption, if Juventus really wants him maybe they will give him not bigger amount but same amount he makes now and a 3 year deal? That way he could guarantee to play at a place he likes to play, with players like Ronaldo and Dybala and others, while also making the same amount and having a consistent income as well. It is just a 3 year same amount deal from Juve that will decide all of this. Also, it is cheaper than the transfer fee anyway, Juventus was capable of paying 100 million dollars fee for Ronaldo, I am sure they can play 15 million for 3 years for Pogba as well.
4395  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Price might drop now?! on: June 09, 2020, 06:07:59 PM
It all depends on what will happen in the future and what people will think of whats going on as well.
You have separate those two things, whats actually happening and what people think about it are two different things.

There could be something awesome going on but people may look at it and not believe it and get scared and sell when everything looks great or maybe the market is horrible but people look at it and see potential profit there and suddenly start buying as well. That is what I think happened with bitcoin in the past 3 months as well, it dropped like crazy but instead of seeing it as a scare, people saw it as a chance to make more profit and they bought a lot of it increasing the price. So we need these two data to decide, what will happen and what will people think about it.
4396  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin to $150K and Ether to $9K on: June 09, 2020, 03:04:06 PM
A long term target for bitcoins would be between $150k to $350k which may happen by end of 2021.
A short term target for bitcoins would be around $20k which may happen by end of this year.

But these are all based on the theory of history repeats itself. We had another halving hence its time for testing the current ATH. But, recession might be the unexpected factor, we are currently having which may influence bitcoin prices at any level and that may lead to changes to above speculation accordingly.

Bitcoin needs to attract more number of adopters along with institutional investors then only we can think about having new ATH. At the same time, any prices around the current ATH might lead people get attracted to bitcoin. This is how bitcoin made people to adopt it. It means bitcoin will have some huge price which will lead to hove more adopters which again lead to further huge prices but in between whales dump and buy back Cool.
4397  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Future whale wannabe on: June 08, 2020, 05:11:33 PM
By considering lots of penny valued coins available, I guess anyone can be altcoin whale but not sure about their competency against bitcoin whales. I mean what will be the guarantee for those coins to be getting higher value in near future. There will be no meaning of holding lots of shitcoins and that too in very big numbers. Its actual worth is always what we exactly need to consider.

I'm not sure for anyone to become a whale just by investing into altcoins. Because we need to consider lots of options as there are 1000s different altcoins/tokens are available in the market and we cannot be sure which is going to rise 1000x and which are going to get delisted. So, covering the right coin will be the challenge which leads to a scenario like we may need to invest with shitcoins as well.

I believe we may become rich by investing into altcoins but thinking about the level like bitcoin whales does not seem realistic in my experience. But, it is a free world anything could happen for anyone; but having an approach which is practically possible will be good always.
4398  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New projects willing choosing bad exchanges? on: June 08, 2020, 04:33:02 PM
What's up with new projects this days? Why are developers choosing p2pb2b, vindax and Latoken for there IEO nowadays? Every single IEO I see or should I say 90% of new projects are choosing these exchanges for fund raising even when they know there chance are slim....I don't just get it, are they willing choosing these exchanges?
Bad exchanges in term of what reference? We are the community we may bring changes if we all start ignoring those exchanges then devs will move to good exchanges. Moreover, small exchanges are charging small fee for conducting IEOs and this could be the reason why some devs looking for those exchanges; I'm sure when such exchanges are always accommodating scam devs then they cannot sustain into this highly competitive crypto exchange business.

Honestly I never bother about IEO and investing with them. After lots of bad experience with ICOs, I just started ignoring them. I am staying only with bitcoin which helped me save more number of bitcoin rather than collecting useless coins/tokens unlike how most other people are sharing these days.
4399  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ninety nine percent of new projects are money grabbers on: June 08, 2020, 03:57:38 PM
To me many new projects are here today just for your money, you invest in them and you make them rich, that's why we keep seeing unqualified people becoming developers, it's always about the money, I wish crypto projects are much harder to built, maybe only few scam projects will exists...... I know how easy it is to built erc20 token and website too, God have mercy on investors, I hope solution comes soon
It is not too late to realize about the fact about most of altcoins. This community has been trying to emphasis about the possible scam attempts in the name of altcoins/ICOs. But unfortunately it seemed no one was ready to listen to them. I just wonder why we need more number of altcoins when most people are still sticking only with bitcoin investment and simply ignoring any other altcoins.

We may need altcoins but definitely not a coin with the repeated concept/just with altered economy rules. Only because of we are all supporting them, new coins keep coming up.

In my opinion, etehreum and its dapps concept has already ruined lots of investors' life in the name of ICOs. Those investors should have actually invested into only bitcoins if there was no other options were available in front of them. We have supported the scammers because we were greedy to make more money by contributing into their crowdfunding. But the time proved how wrong with our expectation and due diligence capabilities.
4400  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What should we need to do for a successful ico on: June 08, 2020, 03:00:26 PM
If you are having a project which is going to deal a real-world application or you're going to focus on solving a long existing problem then you can go for ICO. Otherwise it would be much better to focus on other things except conducting ICOs. Anyhow I am sure that you are going to face very hard time to convince people to contribute in your ICO. Because, people here got complete frustration out of lots of scammy ICOs. So, there are only 25% chances for a successful ICO. I'm not here to discourage you but I am just starting the facts.

Even I am hating IEOs and I prefer only ICOs because of the welfare of people of this community espl bounty hunters, I like to suggest you to go for contacting any exchange for IEOs. Because only with IEO, there could be some chances for raising big amount of money for your project development; given that I am assuming you're working for a real project. Good luck Smiley.
