With Bradley Beal on Suns, I think it's a pretty good match up against the Warriors. But I imagine warriors beating Suns on outside shooting if Curry plays like a point god then it is over for the Suns with their weak Center. just saying.

Suns against Nuggets is ridiculous, Jokic will eat Ayton alive. I'm still rooting for the Nuggets this year!

I'm pretty sure they have unique terms and agreements when it comes to services such as managing clients bitcoin, since we all know that crypto's prices are volatile, especially the bitcoin. They must have did it because of the less movement these days from the price of bitcoin, noticeably bitcoin is declaring its floor for the past years and that might be the very reason why this bank offered such services and they know that they are benefiting from it in the future. Also, they know how mind of millionaires are thinking when it comes to money making.

I wouldn't accept such offer if that's the case. BUT, I'll accept if there's a vesting period.

I agree, pagsalamin ito sa mahinang security ng bansa natin, pero di na rin ako nasurpresa since madami dami na din ang cases ng ganto sa Pilipinas. Ang maganda dito sa event na to ay magkakaron ng aral yung Philhealth sa cybersecurity nila, kung tutuusin maliit ang hinihinging kapalit ng Medusa Ransomware group kaya napaisip ako na baka puro public data lang ang nahawakan nila kasi kung puro pribado ang nakuha nilang info malamang sa malamang mas malaki ang hihingin nila lalo na kung may malaking tao na madadamay. Isa na rin talaga na dapat pagtuunang pansin ng gobyerno is yung pag dadagdag ng lesson sa mga kabataan lalo na yung related sa mga computers dahil alam naman natin, at nakikita na natin ang itsura ng mundo after ng ilang dekada.

Madami rin akong nababasa na kesyo inside job daw ito, or yung iba naman dahil yung IT ng mga government agencies naten ay galing lang sa mga relative na naging backer nila sa ahensya. Kayo sa tingin nyo ano ang katototohanan sa likod nito?

Paying respect for you bro. Pandemic is really a mind changing event of our life, that was a very historic moment for everyone of us, we all thought that was the beginning of a chaotic world but it is not. Then the vaccine arrive after a year, some of us are skeptical but I urge my family to have it. Then self realizations came in, if we all survive that Pandemic where millions of people have died then there's no reason to be weak in life, work harder than before, work smarter than anyone, always think about the future.

We always have the same experience, I trade too during the pandemic, make a couple of money and I can survive the whole week, and just repeated it myself.

I assume there is less than 10% of gamblers that gambles to earn money, and the rest is just for fun.

I think playing for the money is one way of losing it, once you play to earn in gambling then there's a 100% chance of losing and I am not talking about luck, I'm talking about the addicting part of it. Since gambling is all about luck, and casinos are all about business, you'll probably in a spot where it is a lose lose situation.

I gamble a lot, virtually and personally and I find it as sort of happiness, just taking your time and playing some slots, card games, etc. but I don't really have that discipline to gamble and make an out after a win. I agree, discipline is one way of avoiding such huge losses in gambling, never play out of your means as it will only lead you to downfall. I've heard/read some stories about gambling and it is very dark that some people are loaning amount that they can never pay even if they win a million in casino.

Ofc there are a lot of effects of wards, from micro to macro economically. It is more than just the economy, being in war is being all.

Yeah. Unfortunately, people faces the consequences of war and it doesn't bring any pro of being in war. Historically, war restarted the global economy, especially when it happened on two vital playing countries like USA, Russia, and European countries. Leaders won't have that time to think about the impact it will give as they do it for the pride of the country, it's all or nothing after all.

Bitcoin is a complete opposite of what is banking does, the general difference of them is bitcoin as decentralized while banking is centralized. In terms of security I must say that banking is way more secured than bitcoin's storage security like wallets and cold storage, and banking does assured its clients to take care of their money including bankruptcy security, while in bitcoin once you lost it you lost it all forever. So all in all, banks does have to prove anything against bitcoin, but the naturality of bitcoin is what makes it on a level of banking system where fees are generally low and people has its power over their assets. Banks and Bitcoin has its own importance in the society, you just need to leverage these two and get the most out of it.

Well trend and hype is what makes the crypto great right? I mean for over the past years you can't technically predict if the market will move up or down, it's all about the sentiment of the buyers. Technical Indicators are tools we could use to help us in trading, but the problem comes in when we interpret the data in front of us. If we know less about the data we have, we'll get overwhelmed with it making our emotions and impulsiveness be involve which is a bad thing. Now I see technical indicators as guide, but I don't really trust it so I make my own researches whenever I'm trading which I found very helpful on my end since technical indicator holds significantly less when whales are moving crushing what you think is going to happen and they reverse it in a minute. You're right, don't rely so much on technical indicators, use it as a guide instead.

What do you mean google is a spyware? This is such a huge accusation for google, in fact you could win a million dollars if you prove that they are a spyware. I think you've been pretty fed up with the ads that you are having while gaming on phone, or getting random emails but that doesn't mean that they are spying on us, it only means that you didn't read all the terms and put a check on every boxes they provided without reading  I don't think they are spyware, they are just opportunist.

Big yes on this, but games on play store does not guarantee any security though they pass at google. Still the developers hold 99% of what's going to happen on that game, say P2E games and NFT, they might just pass google and scam people when it gets huge enough.

I think "Early Retirement" is a very subjective matter for all of us, while most of people think of early retirement at 30 some may achieve it at 40 and others at 50 it is still depends on how you are managing yourself, your work and the value you have financially. Early retirement is 90% talking about the money or asset you possess, and the 10% is contentment in life. For poor people  they might subject early retirement at 50, middle class at 40 and above middle class at 30ish. But for me Early retirement is just about things that can sustain you, probably a business that generates you enough to live day to day. If you are working on corporate, or office you might find frequent vacation an escape and do not really want to retire early, only if you love your job.

Yeah, just live your life and do not let things let you stop even a general mindset to achieve things. Don't get bored!

This is totally different from us, our goods and services are being taxed at 12% called VAT (Value Added Tax), this is one good way to generate taxes from the masses but reflects badly on the poor. The government should start working with the taxes again, revise some tax laws because we're basically using it for a century and the world hasn't been similar for the past 100 years. I think this is also why crypto has been a thing now to the riches, they can easily dodge taxes which is comparably high to the transaction fee on blockchain. If the government impose high taxes on rich people and low taxes to poor people, this will be a new problem for the society making it unfair.

I know little about Nigeria, but I do know that they have a high inflation rate. Same with my country, people are having a hard life with less jobs and opportunities.

Low cap altcoins has its potential to grow around 10x, I have already seen that but it is not guaranteed. I think many people, especially new ones are vulnerable to these kind of coins thinking that they would make profit easily with these low cap altcoins. There are a lot of factors to consider when investing with low cap altcoins, like the project, its goal, its potential competition, etc. With the number of coins in the market right now, if you spot the best one then you'll earn, on the other hand, you'll be stuck at it forever, so I suggest stick with an average one, don't be a wishful thinker with the coins you wanna invest, be technical at least with some factors.

Transition to renewable energy would require a lot, and this is an understatement. Even without even considering if the powerful people would accept these changes. It is possible if there's only one leader on the planet by that time, and he lives up to 200 years. BUT let us say all countries agreed to transform the world to become renewable energy dependent, for sure there will be a model country, a small country that has cheap labor and materials more probably around Asia, then other countries will follow, and so on.

Would this be worth after all if we used non-renewable energy to transform into a renewable energy-dependent world? coz I think for sure that's going to be our only one option to build it.

I don't think Telegram's wallet is something else, if they made it then its conventional, an in-application wallet. Even if they disclose its full security I doubt many will use it in a day-to-day life. And yup you're right, there are a lot of hackers, scammers, shitty on telegram that will try to track it down so the wallet environment is not safe at all. If they can't secure their platform with a lot of hackers and scammers, I think there should be no debate whether their wallet is safe and secure because it is just a trend-based creation. Just have a look at your telegram, and see how many people are trying to hack you by spamming messages.

If telegram thought of crypto users will make their wallet as their asset wallet, then it's gonna be down in like a year.

Yeah, it was just all make believe by these whales. I am sure this is not just the first time it crossed over 50%, and this means nothing anymore. Before we are celebrating bitcoin dominance but because there are a lot of coins now in the market, all the money became diverse, and nothing's really surprising about it, not even a cents. Try not to look at it and you will be surprised how it moves parallel to the market situation. Bull or bullish it doesn't matter, it is and it will be always the hype, news, and just whatever and whenever they want to buy BTC.

I agree, don't make it as an indicator, again it means nothing anymore. I suggest to look out for more altcoins if you want to buy, but pay respect to BTC and get more than 30% of your portfolio of it. 

I can still remember how funny the trial/questioning to the CEO of tiktok from the senators of USA, it seems that lack of knowledge from something is chaotic when you have the power to just shut it down forever. Tiktok complied to all they need to operate in most of countries and then USA started questioning about their national security. National security over an application that lets you take a photo of yourself with a filter and record yourself dancing. just wow.

China isn't that weak to fight back against USA. I can sense that America is ready for something, like a warfare, so they just starting any conflict with countries. It is a great restart for their economy to avoid crawling against well performing country like China. 

I might disagree on this one, USD is crashing in such a way that they are controlling everything not to make it totally happen. Global economy heavily rely on US we all know that, though there are countries that might survive if it falls but generally speaking we are all connected to USD. But I agree with the 2nd sentence of yours, BTC won't 'magically' be a million dollar asset *1BTC* but with crypto sky is the limit. I'm not saying that it could be a million dollar asset, but it already happened, just think the growth of BTC compare to its early days, it's been a million times, million percentages. I'm not a BTC guy but respect on this coin who opened this industry.

While speculation might happen, risks should always be handled strategically.

Yeah It's always a question of when but for sure there will another bull running for crypto. This isn't going to be a 'stuck market', we all know it's been volatile. It reached a very impossible all time high back then, not mentioning how many economists said that it won't reach above 20K LOL. But then again we have so called factors to call in the market, crypto has never been as huge as we have it now, so taking another step would take time. If you only wait for the ride, then that won't be very easy you might need your money for personal purposes so I suggest trading crypto with reserves so you'll have rounds when we launch to the MARS.  

If if you know how it works it will not be very sketchy at all. AI is proven to be helpful, technically in everything, from finance to healthcare to transportation, etc. there is so much potential in AI but the potential threats also persists. AI could be one powerful tool in trading, I don't use it but if I were to develop one AI use-case then it's definitely worth building around crypto especially in trading where I can make money in a daily basis, I mean thousands of $ everyday.

This is a topic for a long discussion, just like everything else that gives you a step forward, if I'm benefiting from AI in trading then I won't tell to it anybody as it would only lessen my advantage with the market. Bots and AI must have in one category but I do believe there is a big difference between these 2, and I think is more comprehensive than just bots where you can just configure settings, unlike AI that it has its own reasoning and decision-making efforts.
