since cash is king at these situations.Or better just HODL as bitcoin if you don't have any reason to spend it in this lockdown conditions.
Cash/Fiat currency is never a king and if it were Satishi won't have implemented bitcoin. However, USDT and Cash are almost the samething buddy.
Meanwhile, fiat is totally one of the worse option to be use in this present situation which affected the global economic and every market settings. Besides, dollars and others currency are devaluing.
But at the end of the day we are speculating the price of bitcoin not its potential, bitcoin also fell 30 - 40% due to this economic crash that is why cash remains king at this situation but its doesn't mean you should hold fiat cash forever because I know it is the stupidity at its worse.Just buy bitcoins or other assets using the same fiat when the prices hit the bottom by this we can get the benefits from this market crash.
You're right and thats the reason why i mentioned the current situation affected every market setting. Despite, the 30-45% dump in price of bitcoin this current down trend market is the best time to accumulate more coin at cheap rate. Besides, it better to exchange all ones holding into stablecoin  rather than selling it for fiat as you said.
With that been said, i believe you dont have much experience as crypto trading is concern and i don't see any point in me explain to you how crypto works in terms of volatility since you have judge the market through the current state but i hope you choose fiat as you claim cause I'm sure you'll wish you're holding stablecoin while you seize the opportunity of the market downtrend in the future.

Every dip would really be an opportunity to accumulate coins while its cheap but this isnt applicable to all because not all people would have the same mindset and feelings into this kind of situation.
For sure there would be the ones who would really be on hesitance to buy up again yet they've been thinking for further dip down of markets rather than considering to have a recovery later on.
Profitability will always depend or vary on how much risk you do put on into your investment decisions.If you can risk out then it will either succeed or not.

4425  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is not as risky as many think. on: March 25, 2020, 07:51:03 PM
One of the main points many Bitcoin naysayers are quick to bring up whenever you question them on why they are so anti bitcoin is that bitcoin is ‘volatile and risky’. The truth is that Bitcoin is no riskier than any other asset and it may even be safer.

Here’s why Bitcoin is safer than most assets: https://www.cryptopolitan.com/bitcoin-is-safer-than-most-assets-stop-treating-it-as-risky/

What are your thoughts?


Nothing is safe and i cant say that this one is much more safer or less riskier compared on traditional investments like forex and stocks.We know that this one is a speculative market
which isnt even regulated nor cant be controlled.Level of volatility would either fuck you up or would give your riches and we know that the higher the risk
the greater reward but well we know that people are natural gamblers.  Wink
4426  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Physically vs Gambling Online Using Crypto on: March 25, 2020, 04:05:45 PM
   Now when all casinos are closed because of the virus, online gambling is having a good moment. Generally I think online gambling
is becoming more popular these days, but I am not sure about do they gamble in fiat or crypto casinos. I would like to think that
crypto-gambling is the first choice for many people, but who knows.
   I gamble with crypto-currencies almost a year. In this situation now I am happy I chose to gamble with crypto-currencies instead
with fiat.

We can hope that we can bring more people to come to the crypto world. Although they will know crypto from gambling, that will make them will learn more about crypto, so they will see that cryptocurrency is not just for playing gambling. The crypto can be another solution for payment methods. And if more people will come to the crypto, that will help crypto to become more popular than today, and if their government can know that their people using crypto, they will think about using crypto for the payment too.

Perhaps, we will see a new era in which the traditional payment will transform into digital payment. In this matter, the crypto will be used for the payment besides the existing digital payment that people know.
Curiosity would really be there and it would depend on a certain person if he would go deep or would just simply go back to traditional gambling once the current problem had already been resolved
but i do believe that once they do able to have the slightest idea about crypto they would really have that curiosity in mind for sure and would learn even more about it.This is a good opportunity for
possible adoption but hopefully we should see it on other way around rather than on a pandemic situation.Adoption is on progress but i dont expect too much that it would become mainstream since
we know that traditional fiat have been long time having online transaction which most people do prefer.

If you feel bored while doing social distancing at home, voting on this poll might relieve your pain a bit.

Also don't forget to put some rationale behind your decision. Thanks!

3rd quarter of this year or 4th but it depends on the progress on finding  the vaccine because thats the only thing that would resolved out this pandemic.
Some said that they are studying it and asking for a year and half duration which is already too long.Im seeing lots of fake news in Facebook telling about
the cure but no one had proven it out.

Im hopeful for this one though: https://time.com/5807669/coronavirus-vaccine-moderna/
4428  Economy / Economics / Re: a disease or a virus or is there business in it? on: March 25, 2020, 02:59:14 PM
Is there any chance that when the corona virus appears, some scientists have discovered the antidote of the virus itself so that there is an element of intention regarding the spread of the corona virus because there is a business element in it so that the antidote for the corona virus is sought after by many people, this is like a film about spreading viruses that can kill and destroy the economy globally. what do you think about this?

It does exist but on the current situation we cant point out fingers if this one is really made up intentionally on a lab and release it to public to scatter it out.
For people who do just mind on making money where risking many lives globally doesnt really have a soul.So i dont believe much that it is totally intentional or just been drama.
Just like for example where war is a business yet we know that firearms are being bought and other related stuff https://www.quora.com/Why-is-war-such-a-big-business-How-do-countries-profit-from-it

Hey, I just want to ask help on verifying this trading platform umarkets.com

Someone sends me a recommendation thru messages on Facebook after having a little conversation she recommend me her using trading platform.

But I'm not sure if it is worth to deposit $500 (minimum deposit)

Is there anyone who's familiar with this?

umarkets.com

Someone sends you randomly with some recommendation or suggestion to deposit on a forex broker? with that alone you can already sense that somethings fishy unless if you do let yourself
being controlled by greed because that person offer you some good returns when you do make a deposit.

Theres no such thing about easy money and yet making a simple search in google wont cost you an arm and leg. Forex trading isnt easy and even fund handlers or management isnt even recommended.
Stay away with this one if you dont like to lose that 500 bucks.
4431  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: CORONAVIRUS IMPACT ON SPORTS GAMBLING on: March 25, 2020, 12:22:53 PM
That's a very clear explanation, I get your point, I realize that most of the tournaments are done through LAN so that means they are not allowed anymore under a more strict policy of lock down, and we are left with less interesting games to bet on if in case it's still available.

Thanks for that and that is so true.

Most of the games right now are not that good to bet on except for the ESL Pro League CSGO is having right now. I am still betting on it since the games are really great, I'me with Na'Vi and Vitality right now but I'm a bit disappointed with Na'Vi losing to a lower-tier team even with simple getting 81 kills in the series. That tournament is still ongoing right now so better bet while it lasts.

Things are really unpredictable yet anytime where events would really turn the table upside down.Underdogs do really have always the possibility on beating a top tier team.
Not only on the current ESL pro but also in Dec 17th - Dec 22nd 2019 ESL which Vitality won that tourney. They might be top #10 at the moment but they are a strong team.

big majority of good casinos are on quarantine  now till the april so I'm waiting until they open
It would vary on the condition of covid-19 on a certain place.It isnt a sure thing that 1 month would be enough and it might be extended.

and also im bit suspicious about that further verification thing.  Shocked
4433  Economy / Speculation / Re: What do you think? on: March 24, 2020, 11:00:06 PM
The price did not collapse because of the classification of the virus as a pandemic, but a collapse occurred because of "unknown" felling about will happen after that classification, as panic prevailed on many citizens and started to withdraw their investments in the hope of buying some of the basics of life.
In short, the link between the two is not straightforward, but there are reasons associated with these two things that have caused price changes.

Thus linking that the interaction between them and the recovery of the market will not be correct.

Generally, no one can tell you anything, but Bitcoin remains the best asset for doubling the capital, whether investing or speculating.
Agree to this sentiment but you cant really stop people on not to think up this way specially on a very speculative type of market where any news no matter how simple or crucial it is, it would surely be correlated.
Im not saying that the pandemic doesnt have correlation but due to other factors which mainly affect investors mind on indeed cashing out their investments not only on crypto space but also on other traditional investments we've known.

Im not really keen on following up the price due to news because this market had always been unpredictable since from the start.We might connect some events but cant still be sure if it is indeed the precise reason
why this market dump that hard but now we are seeing recovery atm.
4434  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: If we have great ability, is capital from bank loans safe for us to use trade? on: March 24, 2020, 10:06:01 PM
Don't ever take out a loan to trade or gamble. I know people personally who have done this and they are in debt because of this.

I had a friend who was broke, could only trade with like $3000. And he turned $3000 into like $9000 and then lost like half of it. So he assumed he knew what he was doing and borrowed like $10000 from a credit card because you knew he could pay it off soon. Long story short, he lost the entire account within a few weeks and had to pay off the credit card with its 20% APR interest. Worst financial decision of his life.

This is why credit cards actually stopped processing crypto exchange deposits back in 2018 because people could fall into debt if BTC crashed which is exactly what happened. And many people got burned and still owe the debt that they took out.

So never gamble with a loan.
Indeed, the desire to seek more profits is something that everyone wants to gain from trading but do not let that profit make us forget the nature of risk when we conduct trading, we don't need to talk about bank loans, trading margin loans are also an experience for us, the loan amount may be very high but it always comes with special conditions, risks and fees. A lot of people are proud of their skills in margin but the battle is at the end, the number of people smiling is still too small, while the crying is more than ever

I agree with @Gheka here. Despite loans availability I always advise people not to take loans out simply for the purpose of trading. This is because like its said above, the risks are so much higher and you're not guaranteed profit even if you pride yourself as a good trader. Plus, the complication you'd get yourself into with paying interest rate on the loan is another reason not to assume profit and to just trade with only what extra $$$ you got!

It isnt worth the risk imho and aside from no guarantees on making profit you are indeed also being stressed too much that you should able to repay the loan which would really be a main distraction
towards your trading activity.Over confidence is one of the problems too yet even how good you are, you cant be sure if you would make money on a particular day,week or month.
So i wont take a risk on things which im aint sure that i can repay on said due date but if you we are somewhat sure on our skills then your choice but always think twice
on the consequences in case you do fail into your expectation.
4435  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which cryptocurrency do you use for gambling frequently? on: March 24, 2020, 09:29:29 PM
   Doge is my favorite alt-coin for gambling. Low value, very low minimal bets, I don't risk much! For betting on sport usually I bet with
Bitcoin! I tried some other alt-coins for playing dices and other lucky games, but Doge is the best for me! I wanted to try gambling
with Tron, but minimal bets there are like 10 TRX, more or less, it's expensive for me and I can't gamble relaxed!

Which platform are u using for gambling with Doge? There is not much choices gambling with Dogecoin.
Usually you can BTC and ETH in gambling platforms.

   Fortune Jack and Stake.com, both are good. With a search in the google you will find many casinos that accept Doge.
I know that with Bitcoin and Ethereum you have more choices, more casinos and more games to play, but I don't like to
spend BTC and ETH on gambling, with Doge I just have fun and I enjoy playing dices occasionally!
You can also able to play using DOGE on bitdice.me  Wink

Its just a matter of preference on what a gambler gonna use.Some may like to use btc directly since we know its value and some would prefer
on using ex. doge to prolong their time on doing gambling.It does really depend on interest or preference.

hay everyone  Smiley
are you ready to see BTC hit 100k$ this year??
i believe after covid 19 is end all stock markets will be green and BTC will going strong bull run.
at the moment "worldwide" investors is loss and needed short recovery after covid19 is end.
BTC is perfect currency for recovery crisis monetary in the short term caused by covid19
Then let me ask you this, what are you basis or where you do get that confidence that traditional investors would pour out their money into crypto?
Yes, stocks/forex are declining but doesnt mean that it would be the end of it.Its just part or normal on a market to have these kind of situations.
It isnt bad to be optimistic but dont expect too much on the things that is inside your mind. $100k is too much on 2021. Its better to mind
first on how we gonna break that previous ATH. lol

Are you trying to say that you're a gambling addict and you're looking at trying to get over your addiction during this time? Or that this is a good time for others to overcome their addiction? Everything in moderation, my friend. If you can't afford to lose the money, then please don't bet it. Otherwise, there are plenty of crypto-friendly betting sites you could visit if you're just bored. Smiley
I think now a days gambling addict was never leave the platform, because once it was interesting the gambling games automatically everyone continuously stay in a traffic sites. But every play games was bored once it will loose constantly all the gamblers left and move to some other interesting sites. I hope those are loose the entire money in gambling surely come out of addiction.
Its always been like that on where people do completely stop if they dont have money to spend on doing gambling because as long they do have still money into their pocket they would surely play no matter what.
Addiction is really a hard thing to be completely stopped as long you dont set your mind on serious stopping.No matter situation we are in either theres a pandemic or global crisis or whatsoever it doesnt really matter
because gambler will surely play in spite of the condition.Im not generalizing all people but most likely the case this had been the reality.

Airdrops are totally a waste of time but there were still people who do tend to waste up their time on joining to these things where they do commonly hope that the said shitcoins would able to be listed on an exchange and might have some pump and able to make money out of it (very very rare case).Going back in 2017 where some airdrops are really worth to join on when market is mooning
but those golden days were long time gone and always remember that everything ask out for some funds just for a particular reason then its 101% scam.
4439  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you gamble right after coronavirus outbreaks? on: March 24, 2020, 07:18:57 PM
I may not plan for visiting casinos even after the outbreaks of corona will be settled down. Because, it is not advisable to visit crowded places immediately even after any kind of vaccination will be invented. There will be no harm if we take time before everything will be alright to visit a place just for the reason of entertainment; I mean a casino is not an inevitable place unlike what we need to be there for fulfilling our responsibilities without fail.

I like to suggest everyone to take time before planning about visiting casinos and any other crowded places too. Because, we are at the highest emergency situation of our lifetime hence we should not immediately believe into any type of curing process will be declared for making places safe to visit.
Even vaccines would already be available i wont surely still visit out those places and as said we cant still be sure if its totally safe.Frankly speaking that hospitalization is expensive and im not that
rich enough to pay up hospital bills.It would be better to stay home and avoid for how many months or years before tending to go back to normal.Just make it sure that everything is cleared out - means no
more incidents or counting of new infected ones even theres a cure or vaccine its still dangerous for you to go along with the crowd.

I cant deny the benefit of people who do able to take this opportunity here on cryptospace.During lockdown where everybody is having a problem with income since they are relying with their day jobs.
Im somewhat thankful that earning some btc online not only on campaigns but on other task as well does really give out advantage since you are still earning while you are in home.
We cant do anything for those people who have been affected because they dont have any income but somewhat you can make donations or do help where giving out a small portion of
your earnings.

Also i can sent out money via 3rd party providers to my loved ones who are in distant place without the need on handling some cash or go personally.
