One month from now we will already enjoy the PBA.

This is the latest news regarding the opening of the game.

https://www.spin.ph/basketball/pba/pba-to-move-opening-date-of-2021-season-eyes-ynares-center-as-venue-a795-20210316?ref=feed_1_section

Quote
WITH the rise of COVID-19 cases in the country, the PBA is now looking at playing its games at the Ynares Center in Antipolo City while moving back the planned opener of the 2021 season to April 18.

It was move but it's still on the same month, I'm still okay with that because soon we will be able to see the PBA that we have been waiting for. The covid-19 cases in the Philippines has become worst, everyone should have their vaccine the soonest so we can protect ourselves.

Indeed the lockdown in some parts of Metro Manila has affected every small and big industry and the PBA is affected as well if the cases of COVID-19 will do not subside next month. But thankfully, unlike last year, they have some alternatives now to open the 2021 season this year and that will not affect those players in any circumstances since the only thing they need is their own skill and health wherever they play the game.

The more we stay in this industry the more we witnessed its history and the only people can really tell the true stories to later generations, is the one who truly witnessed it in their time. There are more great things to happen with Bitcoin God willing. Today we just hit a new ATH and I keep saying it, still, we don't know if this will push through 100K by the end of the first half of 2021. Things are getting better every day there is no bad news or whatsoever and everything about Bitcoin is going positive I can't really estimate up how much the price will increase this year.

When the Cavs got Jarrett Allen and we know him as a legit great center, McGee and Drummond doesn't have enough time to play already and they have too many bigs already. Its time for them to at least trade it and get some smaller players. What I'm waiting is where will Beal, Lowry, Love, Porzingis and Whiteside go especially with Beal which we know want to be traded already because of too much drama from the start of the season.

I think there will trade those players who wanted to get to another team if they get some good offer but I think the others will stay since there is no rumor regarding their trade. These guys in the Trade option are some good players if they were just on the free agency I think each one of those guys was already signed to some contender teams. Especially the Los Angeles Lakers who badly need some supportive big man.

2 minutes to go before the game and this is something you won't gonna witness in your everyday life. I see a lot of their highlight on Youtube but I never had a time watching live events especially when they all gather in one place such as this one. Most of the spectators are Russian I think most of the rosters are from their country they're rooting for their man. See you their guys the link is in the OP if you want to watch.
4705  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will the Lightning Network challenge VISA someday? on: March 17, 2021, 05:15:32 AM
We should probably ask first if Lightning Network will be mass adopted before talking about challenging VISA. How do you expect it to challenge other platforms when the majority of the Bitcoin community do not even support it?

Those who are into altcoins with cheaper fees and fast transaction won't bother spending sats for opening channels.

Yeah! the problem about it is the service that offers lightning network is not yet fully known to most of the holders out there especially those new to the industry. We still have so much issue regarding its usage only some advance users who can use the service well. If it's fully developed and everything is going smooth as they planned, then that would be useful especially when the price reached its highest peak these coming years.
4706  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What Are The Top Altcoins For Investments In 2021 on: March 16, 2021, 02:01:01 PM
Seems like NFT hype not over yet, so investment on it could life changing opportunity. I’m still waiting the perfect moments the boom session of altcoins and everything drives up prices surely. Until then we can wait and see if this is true. As soon as ETH stable everyone is driving altcoins to rockets.

Altcoins are not the same when it comes to their hype because what is happening right now might not happen in the next time the price will go down. Unlike Bitcoin, the chances of Altcoins to regain their ATH is quite low and it took some years just to get it back just like what happened to ETH. Also, it takes lots of promotion from its developer to gather as many investors as they could. In other words, if you don't invest now and wait for the price to sink, it might not get back again due to high competition in the crypto market.

Old man James with a triple double tonight against the Golden State Warriors to help his Lakers pull out the win. It’s funny that people are talking about Steph coming to the Lakers now... Personally I think that’s crazy talk and he’ll retire with Golden State, but even the great Kobe Bryant once requested a trade so you never know...
First time to hear that talk from the other fans. I've never thought that Steph would do such a desperate move. He has his own home and I think that he'll not go to another team as he has achieved a lot with GSW.
I also think that until his retirement, he'll remain in the dub nation.

That would never happen in my opinion because this guy has their own commitment to their team just like the other players in the past. Stephen Curry is currently on the list of NBA players who have spent their entire career with one franchise. I doubt that he will throw such a title just for money. He has a chance to be next to Dirk Nowitski if he stays on GSW or even becomes the top 1 if he successfully stays there longer than the others on the list.

Proof of stake coins is also the target of the scammers when they want to fool people because they can use it to lure them into thinking that the coins their using will become big time in the future like any other coins in the top list of the crypto market. The victims will only need to buy a certain amount of coins and they now have some stake that will increase every time it hits a certain transactions numbers. All they need to have is hold some of those coins. but mostly scammers create POS coins just too used for pump and dump in the market which most of their investors believe that the coin will recover after it sinks to the bottom. There are lots of people who get attracted because of its convenience but the risk is so high because you could be holding POS coins that have no value in the market after the people who made it has already made their exit.
4709  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which cryptocurrencies will be around in 10 years and why? on: March 16, 2021, 03:28:47 AM
Why XRP bro? It is already a dying coin people ever want to hold them for longer like 10 years?

Even the people who are holding XRP is waiting for the right time to exit and move to other coins because its already facing legal issues with SEC and moreover its centralized so not really a crypto.

That's right but if they can find some excuse about the SEC claim, XRP will be back on track again since its price is not fully down yet. it means the chance is still there and it could be changed as well after 10 years from now. I think the other top coins two will make some huge changes in the years to come as well. But if this the end of the era of XRP we will see it in the upcoming days that the price will continue to sink until it no longer available in any of the exchanges. That's the reality of the coins that lost their value.

They need to start winning some other games that they are underdogs in...like tonight's game.  Yeah they shouldn't win but that doesn't stop 7-8 point underdogs lose everytime.  Looking for at least a dog fight in this game and not a blowout like the Bucks game.

We had a preview of what might playoff games if the Nets and Knicks will face somewhere in the NBA playoffs but the combined skill of Kyrie Irving and James Harden is hard to beat especially when they are still at the peak of their career. they just got a sneak win today and James Harden got a Tripple-Double. This will be the scene in the playoffs if they still manage to preserve the kind of play they're doing today. The Brooklyn Nets beat the New York Knicks 117-112.
4711  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Sold my first Bitcoin and am happy on: March 16, 2021, 02:25:20 AM
I see that you are into long-time holder base on the amount you just sold anyway congrats cause you deserve it you are one of the reasons why we still holding at the current price. Because there are lots of people like you who wanted to support bitcoins by holding as long as you can. Anyway, the price still increasing and no one really knows when will it stop the only thing you can see are the good news that pushes the price to the new ATH. I believe this is the main reason why the OP didn't sell as much as he can since the price does not fully manage to climb as high as it could be.
4712  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Longtime bitcoin holder starting to question the future on: March 15, 2021, 12:44:12 PM
That is what you call a hindsight, he could've bought more but he didn't so there is no point regretting what you didn't do in the past, the important thing is that you bought bitcoin and you earn a lot of money because you have faith that it will grow more than just its current amount at that time.

Past has nothing to do with us today we skip it because that's how our destiny would be. Even though in some aspect of our life we have so many things we wished we have done or things that we wish we didn't do. That's the same with bitcoins and the other altcoins which we see in the market that are on the top list. If we have to get something right now, we need to do our own investigation about certain coins, and if we want we can still stick to BTC if we really want something to invest on some high assurance that our money will not lose. unlike the investment on some other altcoins where their price will not recover when it falls.
4713  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: March 15, 2021, 11:51:57 AM
I see a lot of future for Wiseman, he just needs more experience to see it.
That's for sure but I doubt if he can grab that ROTY award as I see it will be for Ball or for Edwards this season though the list of the favorite wasn't that far in terms of stats. He can dominate the paint and far more than that he has shooting advantage as I see him like an Anthony Davis caliber in the long run.

Ball has a higher chance to get that title everyone talks about him he can also shoot some threes with no problem. Their team is also competing to keep their spot in the NBA playoffs. This will be something huge if he gets their team into the NBA Finals. Just like what happened in the NBA finals last year When Jimmy and his teammates beat the expected teams to get to the finals last year. They can do it too if they show some miracles in the NBA playoffs games.
4714  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Knowing when to trade altcoins with btc vs fiat/stablecoins on: March 15, 2021, 07:12:02 AM
Altcoin to fiat seems the easy way and if you are used to trading with that, you can try the ETH to another Altcoins or BTC to another altcoins method. There is also some altcoin trading method that only those professional traders know because they made that method and when it works for themselves, they rarely share it with the others so you need to find your own phase because in your personal experience you will gain some skills that other won't talk about it and just start with small capital for trying your way of trading.
4715  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I have concluded that all governments together can't stop bitcoin on: March 15, 2021, 06:09:59 AM
Governments all over the world won’t unite just to ban Bitcoin, they have different understanding about it. If they had plan to kill it they should’ve planned it earlier, now its harder to kill because it is backed by millions of people and institutions around the globe believing in its value.

They already failed when they used the mainstream media to bad-mouth Bitcoin and the result was not good for them as the people wanted to know more about it after hearing it from them. All they can do now is put some taxes on the holders especially those exchanges located in their countries. Those holders who have lots of Bitcoin in their wallets won't get any damage from government threats unless they move their BTC to the exchanges. As long as it stays on their hard wallet no one will know about it.
4716  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do I need to pay Tax on my Crypto Gambling Winnings? A guide on: March 15, 2021, 05:02:20 AM

Indeed. We do not want to make our bank suspicious and ask us about the money, so we need to prevent withdrawing in a large amount. If you really need big money, maybe you can search for help from the local seller, so they will send the money to your bank account, which can avoid the bank's suspicion. Even if we need to pay the taxes, I think the taxes will apply to us at the end of the month and not every time we make a transaction.

I hate it when the Banks interrogated me about my own money, they will ask you questions that already been asked before just to make sure that you're telling them the truth about your money source. Banks are tricky that's why if you have a huge amount of money in your wallet, you should know how to withdraw them separately once you withdraw them at once things will not look good especially when you don't have any documents to show them.
4717  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Jake Paul vs Ben Askren on April 17 on: March 15, 2021, 04:10:19 AM
Rapper Snoop Dogg has challenged uncle Dana for a bet of $2 million hehehe. I speculate that Dana might be betting on the loser for this fight. Ben Askren’s punches appeared to be one of the slowest in MMA.

“Hey Dana White, I see you got faith in your boy right? Going up against my guy Jake,” Snoop said per TMZ. “You say you got a million? You’re the CEO of UFC. You got more than a million. Put up TWO. Put up $2 million and we’ll match it.”

https://www.complex.com/sports/snoop-dogg-dana-white-2-million-bet-jake-paul-ben-askren-fight

In anycase, Ben Askren is training with Freddy Roach hehehehehe. There might be hope for this kid.

Boxing legend Freddie Roach is a busy man, and his next mixed martial arts fighter to train is Ben Askren in preparation for his big fight with Jake Paul.

Source https://www.mmanews.com/2021/03/ben-askren-recruits-boxing-legend-freddie-roach-to-train-for-jake-paul-2/

This kind of scene most likely happens when the fight is close and only a few people talk about it. they need to create something both the boxing and MMA fans want. In short, this is just for hype because maybe the fight won't attract as many audiences as they expected before. Man, we need to know that these guys are just doing their own business and by doing so they also need some huge capital like what we have seen in this so-called offer.
4718  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Simple Question - Your investing Strategy on: March 15, 2021, 03:24:23 AM
It's easy but a little bit tricky because everyone is promoting their coins through their own way but if you already know who telling the truth or not and you will have an idea about the probability of certain coins increasing their price, you will have a higher chance to choose the coins which will give you some profit in the future. I assume that you are referring to the long-term holder right? then the chances are so high because the choice is like a vast ocean list of coins but because of your experience, you will somehow found the right one. Just do your own research and don't follow people's opinions regarding certain coins.
4719  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is for Holders! on: March 14, 2021, 12:52:44 PM
That is true Bitcoin is the person who have capability to hold long-term , the more Bitcoin holders the possibility to increase the price more is high. I hope those holders will hold their coin so we can finally see the price of this coin to reach $100k and I think it will happen in 2021.

The person who was holding their coin and didn't sell it when the price has already reached $50,000 this year is a true legend. They don't bother with the people who already sold their BTC when the price has spiked this year. Now their time has finally come and because of those guys, we are experiencing some tendency that we will reach another ATH this year. Man, this year is all about bitcoins price, and the year 2021 is something we cannot forget in the upcoming year because this is the time when the major wall has been breakthrough and still going on, only God knows when will it stop hopefully it won't stop this year.
4720  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: March 14, 2021, 06:15:05 AM
Randle and the New York Knicks continue their domination in the NBA game so far and if they can this kind of game up, they will gonna be torn for whoever they will face in the NBA playoffs. That if they continue to get such win like this in their upcoming games and they really need to stay on their current spot or they might want to continue winning to secure a spot on top 4-6 because behind them are the teams who are expected to go to the NBA Playoffs.
