4581  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin long-term holders continuing to ‘soak up supply’ around $30K on: May 31, 2022, 10:10:00 AM
I wonder if it's the same in the stock markets really. Big tech ones like Mr Musk's own is still down more than 50% from ATH (same as Bitcoin really) and if there are stubborn long-termer Bitcoiners soaking up all the sell orders, I suspect the same is happening elsewhere across the board with global markets. Forex, stocks, commodities. Just believers biting down hard and coping.

Didn't mean to sound like a dampened blanket, just wondering if/when Bitcoin will shrug off the correlation this year.

I thought it has de-coupled a week ago, when bitcoin goes ~$30k, stocks soars. But this is just short lived though as both market finally have a good break out run.

But yeah, bitcoin long term holders will always take advantage and whenever they can, will build their wallets again with this cheap bitcoins from those panic sellers. And so let's see if we can get the numbers at least $32k at the end of the week.

Ryan Garcia vs Javier Fortuna July 16 at Crypto.com


This two is supposed to fight same month last year, but Ryan has to pull out because of his mental health issues.

Ryan was offered to fight Isaac Cruz as ordered by the WBC as a title eliminator, unfortunately, Golden Boy says no to the fight.

Anyhow, this is still a good tune up fight for Ryan before he go with Davis (that is if he will GBP will allow it)

Great game 7 between the Celtics and Heat. I was a little worried at the end there but the Celtics came through. A great game by Jimmy Butler, but he was one shot away from being a hero at the end when he missed that three. Still, the Heat had a great season they can be proud of. Now we’re set for the Finals between the Warriors and the Celtics.
Still kudos to Jimmy Butler, as his team won't go this far without his brilliant performance and that made this season something memorable and something that they can be proud of. Now, Celtics are off to the finals which will give them a big break if they can beat the battle tested Warriors. These two teams deserve a good fight, so i just hope that there will be no serious injuries that's going to happen in the finals. But expect that there will be unexpected twists that will surprise everyone.

Still kudos to him even though the last sequence of the game is annoying but still I understand why he drop that decision to shot at 3 point area because if he can able to shot that he's team will win. But we cannot blame that their are fans got dismayed for that because if Jimmy drive and shot that ball maybe he can shot it or get a foul then go to over time. But things are done and this season is not really meant for them so maybe next season they will bounce back.

No doubt that there are fans and gamblers who got dismay with his action. It so happens that he decides to take that big risk shooting

that ball. If he made it, the chance of winning will favor them, but things did not happen according to how he think it might be and the outcome

favor Boston, Butler and the rest of the Heat. If all is healthy next year, we will see them as again a good contender in the east side.

Fans knows that he is not a 3 pt shooter that's why its really disappointing to see that last sequence of the game and for sure Jimmy think about that after the game end since if he just  drive that ball which is he's strength for sure we can see a different result compare to what action he do at that game. But as stated the game is already over the luck is not on Heat side so time to move on for fans and now time to speculate or discuss about GSW vs Celtics now.

He said that his mindset was to go for the win, so he take that big risk of taking the 3 pt shoot, unfortunately, it didn't went it.

But imagine if he made that shot?, he is not a good 3 pt shooter, but as a big time player, sometimes they have to take that big risk and then suffer the consequences later, be it good or bad for them.

So the table is set already, GSW vs Celtics. For me it will be the Warriors but it's going to be a long series.

I was deeply involved with ICO back in the day but these days, I'm not much active and I really don't have much idea which site provides better insights though I know most sites are biased and paid. Still, I believe there will be a few sites which worth to have a look on. Suggest me some ICO tracking sites please.

Yeah, same here, way back 2018 I followed a lot of ICO websites but it just fell on the radar for me. I'm not sure if ICO though is still the thing this 2022, as obviously they've lost the hype already as new project emerges with different methods to attract investors. Unfortunately, I can't recall those websites anymore but for sure there could be some that survived and most likely doing still doing their thing, providing investors which some good (and bad) ICO projects.

We're back above $30k (as expected on Monday), but once more failing to find much footing there. It'll be an achievement if we hold above this for a full 24 hours...

Hah, haven't check the price this past 24 hours and surprised, surprised, we are back in the $30k'ish. But nothing to celebrate here, perhaps investors put their money, or shall I say short day traders and speculators, trying to squeeze some profit at this bear market.

As for the DCA, yeah, it's proven strategy already, it has been advised many times and so far no can argue against this time and proven method.

And we've moved to $31k, and probably might attempt to get into the $32k and most likely will end what the week with 9th consecutive candles? If that happens then maybe, June might be a good month after all as we have a break out run then.

That's just bitcoin proving it's resiliency, we might be in a bear market, but from time to time we will see some good bounce back,

Good luck kabayan, basta unstoppable pa rin si Butler, malaking chance na manalo ang Heat. Saka dapat maganda rin ang defense ng Heat, otherwise, yung 3 points ng mga Celtics ay madaling papasok, alam naman natin ng 3 point shooters ang team na ito.



Basta tulong tulong ulit ang miami malaki ang chance nilang manalo, pero sa series na to talagang ang hirap magpredict, akalain mo ba naman na biglang magbabago yung momentum at ngayon nasa homecourt na ulit ng miami at posibleng masungkit pa nila ang East finals kung magiging pareho ang magiging laro nila nung game 6.

Pero expect na may adjustment din sa Celtics at alam naman natin na nadale nila ang Nets at ang last year champ baka explosive
nanaman yung dalawang main scorers nila.

Kinapos ang Heat, sabi ko wag lang talagang magpapatambak sa first quarter eh. Kaya lang ang sama na naman ng umpisa nila kaya ayun hirap na hirap sa pag habol at kung kelan maganda na ang habol nila aarangkada ang Celtics. Ang ganda ng ginawa ng tatlo, Tatum, Brown at si Marcus Smart.

2 points na lang ang lamang, seconds to go, tumira si Jimmy ng tres, hehehe. Respect, pero kung pumasok yun.....

Maganda ganda ang NBA finals, offense ng GSW at defense ng Celtics.
4588  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Dumb plan? on: May 29, 2022, 10:22:35 PM
It seems that every three to four years cycle new altcoins always takes a position in top 20 list on coinmarketcap, those who are leading the top 20 of 2017 are done for right now, only very few remains, now it seems this is what's going to happen in 2024-2025 too, now tell me why investing in a new project a bad idea? Cos I plan to look into new projects for the future instead, what do you think?

You have to ask yourself, short or long term?

Because the way you saw it, seems that the good strategy is too invest on short term on the top 10-20 coins and then get out when you have profited already.

So it's not a dumb plan, it's just that you should learn from what you seen and take advantage of that kind of situation. And if you succeeded then just rinse and repeat till the next bull and bear season.
4589  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Eastern Conference Finals (Heat vs Celtics) on: May 29, 2022, 10:01:03 PM

They are professionals, I'm pretty sure they know how to manage themselves. Yes, Warriors are now resting because the series is over, but that doesn't mean tha they will easily beat the winner of Celtics/Heat series. I still think that the better team will win and personally I think Warriors are the better team but I would  not underestimate the heat or Celtics.
It's always the better team that wins and that's why at the end they're proclaimed as the champions of the season per se. The crowd is thinking about Warriors to be getting this year's ring but we don't know, let's just wait and see.

Warriors are showing their championship form, they always bounce back after every lose and have dominated their opponents.

1st round = 4-1
2nd round = 4-2
WCF = 4-1

That numbers are very scary, they may not be the old team but I think they are better now.
With Curry who still is very consistent, and Thompson found his rhythm again, I guess they would give a problem to their opponent.

But all of that will be erased once we are in the NBA Finals.

The good thing in this coming NBA Finals is that we have a balance between two teams, what I mean is there's no team that is heavily favored to win, so bettors can choose between the two and still believe that what team they'll choose will have a great chance of winning.

Still a good numbers though, a gauge on how good the Warriors is on this playoff so this could have a carry over, as sort of momentum in the finals regardless on how they are going to face.

I doubt that, Warriors will be heavy favored in the first 2 games, even at the who is going to win the NBA finals, they are a huge favorite against the Heat and the Celtics.

As for this, I like the chances of Heat to win in this game 7.
4590  Economy / Speculation / Re: 🪄✨Crypto is rising on: May 29, 2022, 09:33:47 PM
From $29k to $30k is not a rise it's just price fluctuation.  There is no indication there will be a rise any time soon. For me this is the best time to pay closer attention to the market to decide when to sell and wait for the next market move because from more technical reviews we might still face more dips if the price keeps hovering around $28k
What did you think is rise, Bitcoin fall to 25k and get rise to 28k and 30k and you are not appreciating the rising of bitcoin, if some body utilize the opportunity of buying at time the price is low in 25k and it rise to 30k the person that buy when is 28 have make profit, and it depends on the amount you put will give you big profit

Pretty obvious that maybe he just read this one from some site and think that it's accurate.

As others said, no bull run, we will continue to trade sideways at the end of this month and probably another red candle too, setting a new record. Best time for the price to go up again is likely after the halving so it means  we will have to endure the bear  cycle once more. So possible that the price might go down to $24k and that will be the perfect price at least for me to fill my wallets.
4591  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: May 29, 2022, 02:04:08 PM
I will root for Miami tonight as I will keep my vouch and support the same teams that I said I will from the start. One went out against GSW and I can't blame Mavs as they already did a fantastic season but on MIami , I'm still waiting for that massive game where all the players will play good not just Jimmy buckets.

Will be rooting for the Miami Heat as well at +2.5, yes it's really hard to predict, but I will bank on the experience of the team. Butler, Bam and Tucker or Lowry has the experience to go to the finals already and they have the the young guys to help them out. And they have the home court advantage which is very important in a game 7 close out game. And if I'm not mistaken, the numbers are in the favor of Heat.
4592  Local / Pamilihan / Re: NBA discussion, betting and etc. on: May 29, 2022, 11:17:46 AM
Grabe talaga si Butler sobrang buhat ang ginawa nya pero hindi gaya ni Luka na kapos sa saklolo, si Butler may Bam at Tucker na

defensive stopper at may Lowry at Strus na katulong nya sa opensa, nakasagad pa sila ng game 7 at uuwi sila sa homecourt nila

kung maka Miami ka magandang tayaan yung ML nila. Magkakaalaman na kung sino ang makakaharap ng Warriors sa finals, kung sino

ang mas uhaw sigurado sya ang mananalo..

Kung kailan natin inakala na tapos na itong si Butler dahil sa mga injuries nya ay doon pa siya nagpakita ng mapakagandang laro kung saan ang buong team ay nakaasa sa kanya. Grabeng performance yon na kahit matalo sila sa game7 ay parang hindi mo na siya sisihin hehe, 47 points, 9 rebounds at 8 assists lang naman ang kinamada nya.

Game7 at nasa homecourt ng Miami, magandang laban to at sa pagkakataong ito ay hindi na gaano ka-dehado yong Miami at yong handicap ay nasa +2.5 nalang.

Oo nga nabuhay pa ang Heat hehehe.

Dehado parin sila kasi ang daming na report na injuries sa kanila. Sayang lang ang pinundar nila para makamit ang game 7 tapos baka matalo dahil sa injuries.

Pero sa Heat parin ako kahit anong mangyari so maganda nga yang handicap na +2.5 sa kanila.

Mukhang close game ito tomorrow, so kahit pa matalo ang Heat, malaking tulong na yang +2.5 dahil baka naman mag cover pa ang spread nila. Ako rin, mukhang gusto ko ang Heat +2.5, nasa kanila ang momentum tapos home court pa nila.

Kinuha ko na ang +2.5 sa Heat wala nang atrasan hehehe, 2.05 pa sya dahil boosted.

Malaki talaga tsansa nila na manalo rin dahil nasa kanila ang momentum ngayon. Basta wag lang talaga sila magpapaiwan sa first quarter, kailangan dikit lang ang score o kaya lamang sila ng konti para maganda ang datingan sa 4th quarter. So goodluck sa ting mga tataya sa laban na to.

These privacy coins become less popular for me after 2017-2018.

I think when crypto enthusiast realized that government will still continue to track and hunt them down even if they uses privacy coins. And perhaps this is one reason why the sudden decline except maybe Monero but still they are still far cry from what they are used to be back them.

I know that maybe some here are private person and wanted to be anonymous. However, the trend is changing and we need to embrace the notion that  we can be traced even if we used these so called privacy coins.
4594  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Davis vs Romero: May 28 on: May 29, 2022, 09:08:56 AM
Yes, I witnessed this incident directly on the live broadcast. The tank pushed him there, but the thought seemed a little taken aback. He later said that he deserved it because he talked too much. Romero has strong hits as you said, it can be dangerous if he catches Tank, but I think Tank will win this fight no matter what. This match will definitely be KO.

Again, part of the marketing as usual lol. That's Romero's strength, trash-talking his opponents but in the few hours it will be just the two of them and even the trash-talk won't help him against Davis. Bookies predict this fight to end via KO in favor of Davis but for me, the odds are not worth it so I still bet for Davis to win but via decision for that 5.4 odds. We may see lots of hugging in this fight and Romero will use hid bicycle once he tastes that Davis power punches.



I went on the KO mate,  Grin



Just don't like that Davis started very slow in this fight. Maybe he just want to figure out Rolly, but that guy is just one sided, he just bring power in the table. But he has improved a lot from the last fight that I've seen him and he looks really prepared but caught by a perfect left.

This will be the true value of it, gonna be less as what everyone expected because Luna doesn't have the support of the community after what they have done with Luna 1.0, sorry to burst the bubble specially for those who think that it will just go back to it's previous price.
4596  Local / Pilipinas / Re: Report: PH ranks 2nd in ‘ownership of cryptocurrency’ on: May 28, 2022, 11:32:21 PM
Maganda din sana malaman kung anong klaseng crypto ang hawak. Baka kasi yung iba eh mga walang kwenta tapos sasagot sila ng 'yes' sa survey form.

Yes, interesado rin akong malaman, pero sa speculasyon ko, either bitcoin or yung AXS nga. Dahil katulad ng sinabi ko, sumikat to ng husto sa Pilipinas lalo na nung may covid-19 lockdown at walang ginawa ang tao kundi maglaro nito.

Although may numbers na lumabas parang sa tingin ko at katulad nang nasilip mo may sablay ng konti.

Sa experience ko naman, siguro may mga 5 taong nagtanong sakin tungkol sa crypto, at 4 nito ay patungkol sa bitcoin at isa sa AXS.

Sa katunayan, at kung hindi ako nagkakamali, isa sa mga unang thread dito sa local natin tungkol sa AXIE nung hindi pa masyado putok, The NFT Game That Makes Cents for Filipinos During COVID. 2 pages lang ang inabot ng diskusyon pero tiyak maraming naglaro nito at kumita ng malaki para sa tin ng nalaman to.  Grin

Pero bakit marami parin sa ating ang hirap magpayaman o sabihin gamitin sa tama gamit ang crypto currency na hawak ng isang Pilipino?

Dahil marami sa ating kababayan ang mahilig sa get-rich-quick schemes at "easy money". Un rin ung rason kung bakit sobrang hit na hit saatin dito ung e-sabong at pagsugal in general; pati na rin ung dami ng taong napapaloko sa mga pyramid schemes.

Tama, at masasabi ko na malamang walang tyagang mag hold o alamin talaga ang crypto, basta alam nila yayaman agad. At mas gugustuhin ang mag sugal na mas mataas ang risk o yung mga taong one day millionaire.
4597  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Breaks Bullish Trend Line? on: May 28, 2022, 10:56:44 PM
I think those are levels that are going to be difficult to be reached even during this bear market, we will need another Luna crashing all the way to zero for such a scenario to happen, and while we could imagine different scenarios in which something like this would be possible the chances that we see back to back crashes like that seem to be on the low side to me, still it is important to remain vigilant and keep our eyes open in the case the price of bitcoin drops once again as we may have the opportunity to buy bitcoin for a price even cheaper than the current one.
This is crypto world and I wouldn't be shocked if we end up with something like that, those things happen all the time and we could have another crash or another bad news that makes it go down. Do I expect it to happen? Of course not, I am expecting it to go back up, and that is probably what we are going to have and that is the thing that we should be focusing on, how we could go back up.

Just because there is a possibility that it could go down some more if something major happens doesn't change that unless something unexpected happens we would be going up again. So, just focus on the fact that we could profit very soon and make your moves accordingly.
Obviously everything is possible, however if another coin in the top 10 collapsed in less than a month then I would begin to be suspicious about the timing of the whole thing, after all we know that altcoins are incredibly risky investment and they can collapse at any time, and in fact this is something that we see all the time, but if we got two crashes so close to each other then I think I will be very suspicious about the timing as it would seem as if someone was behind the crashes to try to discredit this market.

Altcoin collapsing like Luna? yes it could happen even if it is on the top 10 or top 20. They are so risky riht now specially with how Luna bring the market down.

So it's better to just move to bitcoin for now until the altcoin market calms. If bitcoin goes down though, it will not have that huge dump, smart investors knows when to buy and fill their bags. That is when the price goes down hard, so let's say by chance the price dips to $25k, for sure it will recover because that is a golden opportunity to buy bitcoin at a discounted rate.

Anyone has seen the video of Tank shoving Romero out of the stage that nearly started a brawl, Romero tried to bully Tank and Tank gets back by pushing Romero out of the stage when he turn his back, and both fighters heat up after the weigh-in and this is brewing to be a very exciting and interesting fight, I still have Tank winning the fight but still considering that an upset can happen, Romero is not a weak fighter if he landed his punches, Tank will be in trouble but so is Romero if Tank hit him first, it will go down on who can hit first.

Tank Davis Pushes Rolly Romero Off Stage At Weigh-In, Brawl Nearly Erupts

Yeah, thanks for this, I was about to post this video as well.

Good thing is that Romero was able to catch his balance while falling from the stage, because if it didn't and he gets injured because of the push, this fight might be postponed again and maybe Davis will get some penalty as far as money goes. So we will see, this push might motivate Romero even more to score an upset. Goodluck to all bettors.

I still think Warriors will dominate in the finals no matter who the opponent is.

I do believe that as well, that's why I'm so happy when they advance in the NBA Finals because I booked an 8.15 odds for them to win before.
You can see on my thread - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5395393.msg59917438#msg59917438

Seriously, no one has expected that the Warriors will participate again in the NBA Finals this season because they are having some trouble in the regular games especially when Klay Thompson have returned from the injury he sustained and aside from that, they are having some hard time synchronizing and finding the right rhythm while the others are also inconsistent.

1 month ago, you made a tough choice and chose to bet on the Warriors with 8.15 odds. That's great! You're now close from finding out if that bet of yours is right.

Well it's because in the beginning, Klay was not available and if I'm not mistaken, he started to play this January, so he missed a lot of games during regular season. But now it's obvious that he is back, his deadly shooting form is on target.

So now they are the favorite at 1.52 as per sport bookies. And that is huge already, lucky for those who have bet on them early because of the very attractive odds. But nevertheless, regardless of what will be the series score, the current odd is still good to bet on them.
