Definitely not! It is just because altcoins are just relying upon Bitcoin performance. It is just to see that Bitcoin never good as well and its turning slow-moving. However, Bitcoin can manage to hold at $10k range since the 2nd quarter which is good enough to hold the entire market for not drowning hard.
I have noticed that XRP has a good rallying price in a few days past but do we expect that it is competing for Bitcoin? Or it is just another hype bringing XRP alive? Nothing has to expect great for XRP and much more to see it moving in the top.

That's pretty doable this year, $20,000 in the past quarter sound hard but its not impossible.
People can spread what they want actually, this is a free market, and we can see more people like him, not because we are in the forum we all have the same prediction, if they believe it will dump to $2,000, that's their own prediction, besides the market is so unpredictable so we cannot control it to happen.

When people spread FUD, it will result to a healthy market, because when they fear, the smart will take over and will buy their dumps, and eventually we don't know we are creating a stronger community that are willing to hold and wait, and that would make bitcoin stronger in the long run.

So this we can say that Melo's career in the NBA is over?
He will be remembered of course, its just that his style and his personality is not attractive to any team, they still see him as an NBA star that wants to have a big role in a team that he wants to play, and for a player like Melo, it's hard to give up his ego or his pride so that might cause trouble to the team, maybe that's the reason why they are getting rid of him even at a minimum contract.

We cannot ascertain that we will also stop at the right stop, this is gambling where there's a high risk of losing that winning, and with dice, we can only win if we are lucky and based on what I read, it says that, the longer we play in dice, the more we will lose as everytime you roll that dice regardless of the multiplier, the house always has the advantage.

That kind of strategy is not proven successful, most of the successful casinos now are just using the traditional style where they accept major coins and altcoins. Maybe gamblers are not trusting too much on gambling sites that use their altcoins because anytime the value could drop since their liquidity is not that good, unlike with BTC and ETH where you can trade them at any trading sites in the space.

This is the list of gambling sites that uses ICO, I'm familiar with some of them but I know they are smaller compared to the popular gambling sites here accepting bitcoin and altcoins.

To be honest, when I bet on sports, I don't think of the EV analysis anymore, as most of the time I bet on odds that is higher than 100% of return.
Odds changes depending on what I see that could give me a good chance of winning so those analysis are not really important to me, in addition, I am not a kind of gambler who are very serious with what i'm doing, I just gamble, if I loss, I forget it, if I win, I enjoyed it.

This kind of analysis I think are only more important to those who like to take sports betting a serious venture and a long journey.

It's not a serious dump, bitcoin is not strong and stable I guess since if it will dump, it will not dump below $9K and it could easily recover.
There's still 3 months left in this year, and that's plenty of time to make a good run and if bitcoin will just end over $10k this year, that's already a great achievement as we were just at over $3K at the start of the year, its more or less 200% in a year, not bad..

$20,000 is a big dream now, but I'm not saying it's impossible as during the last bull run, btc make a an ATH in less than 3 months, so we need a history to repeat itself to make it possible.

As if there is something significant happened in the market, I get it, price dumped below $10K but it's been the normal movement this month, that's only a sideways movement and that is something we should worry. In fact, I believe this is a positive news and I am now confident that even if the price will dump it will recover since we already have big players in the market.

Just relax, because the effect of this is long term, the market for now is not so stable but eventually the market will start to rally and that will surprise us, either in the last quarter or probably next year before the halving schedule.

Exactly, the management would be fool enough if they cannot protect their investment.
They will clear Durant to play but it's not only up to them since Durant knows how he feel so they will consult Durant if he is already willing to play again.

Durant is a star and we saw his dedication in this sport, so I think he is a warriors that would not feel a small pain to stop him, for sure we will see him playing again next season, prepare for that while we hope and pray that he will not be injured again, it's hard to witness a star player retire early because of major injury.

It's expect as not everyone has the same understand on the potential of Libra, not even all knew that Libra is a stable coin.
For me, I'm very positive that Libra will bring positive result to the future of crypto, though it's a stable coin but it's effect on bitcoin and altcoins is gonna be enormous, imagine if it's able to have at least 50% of facebook users to use the platform, maybe we can get 10% of them to be curious and eventually discover the potential of crypto in general.

That's a good news, let me check the line for NBA futures now if its still available. ...

yeah, it's still up, Brooklyn Nets is 24.50 to win the championship, I think this is a good odds.

Like every player who came from serious injury, they will not easily get back to normal, and in addition, he is playing in a different team, so let's hope he will be okay and can still play on his MVP form.

There's no reason for us to dump if we were able to hold this long, that means we are a real believer and we are optimistic about the future of altcoins.
Altcoin season will eventually come, it maybe not happen this year, but expect it will happen in the following years.

If we like to make it easy for us to monitor, consider bitcoin as our basis, and we always believe that bitcoin will not just stuck at this price, it will rise in the future and will probably make a new ATH, when that situation comes, expect that altcoins will bounce back hard and we might see a new bull run again.

That's it, and gambling sites do understands that, even exchange like Binance which is one of the most popular exchange in the space is not so strict with KYC.

They allow traders to use their platform without KYC up to a certain limit or condition, because they see the possibility that they would loss clients if they will be very strict, same with gambling site of course, less complicated will give more comfort to gamblers and they will choose a gambling sites that gives them that comfort, people does not care much about the license of the gambling operators, they cares more on the reputation.

Yes. Coinmarket.com is also a good site to visit aside from cryptocompare but i think we have to study more on ourselves on the different altcoins in the market and after we conduct series of comparison between them, we can finally say that this certain altcoin has really an edge from the others. For me, ethereum still top them all and still gained the trust by most of the investors.

Pardon my interference but it's not a wrong idea, people can win in gambling and they also have a chance to make gambling as a source of income.
But this is the requirement, provided they have the skills to do it, because it's not impossible to make money in gambling.


Gambler who doesn't have the skills should consider gambling for fun only, they will never earn but they will continue to spend.
Having fun is our aim but our main purpose is to win, but even if we loss as long as we stay discipline, it will never change us into an addicted gambler which could make a bad decision ruining their lives.

The secret is you don't play a game that has a house edge as you can never have a chance to win consistently when you focus on that.
If we will just look and be smart, we can find a lot of games that has not house edge, like Poker or even sports betting, that's really up to us if we will push ourselves to try that journey, and as long as we take the right game for us, we always have a chance although in reality, the chance of winning in gambling is very slim.

For him to be rank number 1 again, he needs to beat the best teams in the west, and they will clash with Giannis which I believe he and his team will easily win the fight. Giannis though has become an MVP but he will never wins a finals MVP aware because he cannot take his team to the Finals, the management still rely on him this coming season so let's see how far the Bucks can go, I know it has an easier journey this coming season as he will not have to face Leonard again, and Durant is out for the nets.

If you will allow this people to judge you, you will feel bad.
First, it will start from your own belief, if you think gambling is bad, then you should not gamble at all, otherwise you are violating your own principle.

Gambling is not a sin but people can think whatever they want based on what they see, and you don't have to waste your time explaining to them.
It doesn't matter if they'll judge, just continue to live your life and be a good citizen, being a gambler should not affect your personal image badly.

Czech Republic and  Greece are now playing, I already put my bet on Czech Republic to win by 6+ with a good odds, let's see if I'm lucky today.
In the early first quarter, it's the Greece who are dominating, current 10-2 so far, but this is still early, I'm still optimistic that Czech Republic will upset Greece here.

They have an easier journey because they are in the east, so if they will improve this season, they might be in the playoffs, but I'm sure if they are lucky to be in playoffs, they might do a first round exit with the young talent they have, regular season is pretty different compared the playoffs.

They finished last during the last season with only 17 wins and 65 losses, they are actually the worst in the NBA.
