4721  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin reaches maximum, target $80K BTC on: April 25, 2022, 02:00:41 PM
Looks like bitcoin is having a hard time hitting its $80k price target this year. Moreover, until now the price of bitcoin has not been able to reach the $50k area. Therefore I think it's too early to say if the bitcoin price will reach $80k even reaching a price above $50k is still difficult.

We can just throw in random numbers and say that this will be the max price for this year. But we all know that we are in a bear market, so the price could not just literally set up and have a new all time high at the end of the year.

So we will have to wait for $80k, we might be talking about the price still going down again and maybe touching the last all time high we had in 2017, and that could be the worst scenario in this bear market.

Unpredictable mga games hehehe, paisa isa lang ang tama natin.

Bukas ang napupusuan ko ay:

Celtics vs Nets - dehado ang Celtics so ML or +1.86
Sixers vs Raptors - Raptors +7.5
Jazz vs Mavs - Mavs -3.5

Guys... how are you dealing with this first round of the playoffs!!?

In my opinion, I believe that some games are totally unpredictable.

Boston vs Nets (3-1 Boston)
Grizillies vs Timberwolves - (tie)
Suns vs Pelicans (tie)

What do you think of this!!?

Right, just a correction though, Boston vs Nets is 3-0 and this could be a clean sweep by the Celtics if Nets will continue to play bad.

Grizzlies vs Wolves - very hard to predict, the second seed has a hard time against the Wolves and Ja Morant has been hounded in this series.

Same with the Suns vs Pelicans, but I think the Suns will win this series in a hard 6 or 7 game.

There were enough reports that they have move to China or routing everything just to get away or bypass sanctions.

Or even bolder approach, turning crypto into gold. So they are getting bolder and sophisticated on their approach. Maybe the Russian government really did prepare for a long war or even anticipated sanctions will come on all front and could have also laid out to circumvent it.

Just to let you guys know, there will be a rematch clause according to this article:

Quote
The 23-year-old Haney’s legitimate ambition led to him signing contracts for what could be back-to-back fights against Australia’s Kambosos in his home country.

https://www.boxingscene.com/haney-i-inspire-young-old-guys-other-side-street-stuff-out-window--165748

So that's how confident in this fight, if he beats Kambosos, he will more willing to fight him again in his own soil and beat him the second time.

This ain't good sight for every Bitcoin investors. I don't like it but I accepted it.
Remember the past. That's what always comes out of my mind whenever a bear happens. Before, there's not even a single light in the darkness. We don't expect much. We are not spoiled brats.
But fuck me, ever since the $60k mark was reached we are all expecting higher number. Ain't we fucking greedy human beings? I like this number, and I don't expect more. Maybe it's not yet time for a new bottom. If $35k or $30k is the new one then so be it, it's still better than last year.

Yeah, it's the cycle that we need to understand, conformed and adjust. No body wants to see the price going down hard in the next 2 years or so, but for those who have seen in before, it will be a long and hard.

So the best thing to do is really have that patience, again if we have experience it, then we know what to do during this bear market.

This season's playoff games are so unpredictable at least for me.
Unpredictable. Correct. And that's the way it should be.
I may lose my bets but I am glad I will become a part of it even just on the betting side.  Grin
4 games baby.

Phoenix Suns -3.5.
Miami Heat -2.5
Nuggets +5.5 - Just to not make this look bad and for entertainment purposes. Prolong the games for ticket sales.
Chicago Bulls +4.5 will begin in 50 minutes as of writing. Good luck.

Yeah, only just a few games that is predictable, but then the defense was different in the last 2 games of the series so it's really very unpredictable.

I got the same bet with the Bulls +4.5 - I think they will have to bounce back from a poor performance from the last game.
4728  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: April 24, 2022, 04:14:25 PM
Bulls cannot win the series anymore.

I also do believe that Bulls won't win the next game either as this was the best change they had to take the lead of series and they failed. Bucks is clearly a better team who knows how to deal with important play-off games when Bulls rarely played in play-offs in the last years so this is another big factor that will make Bucks take the series.
Many have already said it already even before the playoffs has started.
And knowing that their first opponent this playoffs are the defending champions, they surely will lose this first round for sure.

From a career playoff high 41 pts in 16/31 shooting to now 11 points only with 4/9 shooting. That was a huge difference and it just shows how the Bucks can adjust quickly and be effective on it. Giannis didn't dominate and scored that much like what it used to be but all has contributed offensively with 5 players in double digits. If the Bulls will not adjust in Game 4, they might get eliminated in 5 games for some obvious reasons.

I know , but some of us dreamed and hoped until the end. Anyway, it's good for Bulls that they have a team who could stand and face the NBA champs as not a lot of teams can say that right now.


Regarding last night, I think Celtics is having a super solid team with a very smart coach that knows his players and their talents very well. Nets ...simply awful , having only 3 important players who could really play the ball and score points. I'm afraid the dream of a super team in Brooklyn is about to be over after this year Sad.

I also think that the Celtics can go on the finals in the East, they can even defeat the Bucks in they are going to face in the finals, in my opinion.

They are a solid team and seems to be not a weakest link. Defense is solid an they have Tatum now who is one of the best players in the league right now. Just sad that Durant leaves the Warrior formed his own super team but can't even reach the finals.
4729  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Sultan vs Butler - WBO Bantamweight Interim title fight. on: April 23, 2022, 10:53:41 PM
Locking the thread now.

For the majority of us, it was sad that Casimero wasn't able to fight Butler as we all have been speculating that the weight issue could have been resolved by hiring a very highly known dietitian to help him. Hoping that he can go back and bounce back

So come Jonas Sultan to cover for his fellow Pinoy, but he seems to be not ready as well. He will just there so that the fight could happened.
4730  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: April 23, 2022, 01:12:24 PM
A comeback from the Chicago Bulls won't likely happen. They are now being massacred by the Milwaukee Bucks since the start of the game.

On top of that, Giannis Antetokounmpo is even on below 20+ points and just played 24 minutes as of I'm typing this but they are leading with 20+ points already and able to maintain it while the 4th quarter is approaching.

But until the final buzzer, the game is not yet finished.

Yeah. Bulls can’t fight back to the aggression of Bucks especially the bench players. A lot of players on Bucks is on fire and easily replace middleton role. I thought that this game will be easy for bulls because they have all the advantage including home court and complete f5 line up. Bucks become much stronger without Middleton.  Grin

I don't want to take any credit away from the Bucks for making Middleton's absence not felt but, It's mostly due to Chicago Bulls not making decisive plays, and lost the game from the very first quarter, this game was never a contest to be honest.

And we all fall for the Bulls trap, hehehe, +3.5 to +5.5 is a good bet to he honest, but we all got destroyed when the Bucks very well and the Bulls as you have said, didn't play defense and allowing easy points for the Bucks tonight. This is playoffs and we have seen huge comeback like last night, but the Bulls just really let us all down.

I'm picking the Sixers against the Raptors -3.5, and sweep the series.
4731  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Sentiment Poll for April on: April 23, 2022, 12:18:26 PM
Anyway, check out the price...  And just like that BTC was breaking above 42k with 45k looking to be a sure thing then out from nowhere somebody pushes it back down to 40k.  Market is spooked and down it goes some more to 39k with 38k looking very likely.  :/

Yeah mentioned yesterday these last few 40k breaks have puzzles me as have been expecting 38k and below to be easily done with repeated failure of 40k as support -- BUT we could also be underestimating the desire of bulls to be tested and relinquish 40k temporarily. One of the tightest ranges over one of the longest periods (relatively) this year so far, that's a proper tug of war but one guy just needs to lose their footing Wink

Let's see if the bulls can defend the $40k again, as you have said the supports seems to be very tight and we even have some movement above that support line and I thought that we can go to the next, at least $45. So there is a battle on the floor, bulls and bears trying to get the advantage in this race up to the end of the month at least. So it's going to be $40k++ or a minor divergence again to $38k.
4732  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: April 23, 2022, 11:52:45 AM
It looks like the Milwaukee Bucks - Chicago Bulls matchup won't be ending very quickly. Because Bulls managed to get a win away against Bucks the last time and brought the series to 1-1 already. And tonight, Bulls are hosting them. Bookmakers are still favouring Bucks to win here of course but I think that Bulls might use the momentum and get 2-1 ahead in this series too. I really loved their last performance against Bucks. As long as they carry that to this game, they are my favourite.

Well the reason that the Bulls can get a 2-1 lead is because one of the key players of Milwaukee is down and out with a injury. So it will be Giannis all over again. And with that lost in game 2, for sure it will be the Bulls who will have the momentum but it's not an assurance even if they will host the Bucks at United Center. It will take a perfect defense on Giannis to stop them and then at least either DeRozan and Lavine taking over for the Bulls.

Not going to happen, Bucks is comfortable right now with a huge lead. The Bulls plays luckluster in their own homecourt. While the Bucks is tearing them down inside and outside. It's going to be a painful exit for the Bulls if they can't comeback on the next game. I don't think that anyone see this coming, specially the way Bulls play in game 2. DeRozan and Lavine just scored 11 and 15.

Unfortunately, they choke, specially DeRozan. He seems to be back after that performance in game 2. Good counter by coach Mike Budenholzer in the absence of Middleton, Portis and Allen played very well. Giannis almost got a triple double.

Now, we shall see if the Bulls can recover from this huge lost, otherwise the Bucks advancing in the next round for me.
4733  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Honduras SEZ accepting Bitcoin as legal tender. What could be the benifits? on: April 23, 2022, 11:24:33 AM
Like El Salvador, "Honduras Prospera" an SEZ of Honduras has now legalized bitcoin.
I was thinking what could be the possible benifits of bitcoin to the economy of El salvador and Hondurus.
One good article I found is here https://www.borgenmagazine.com/bitcoin-in-el-salvador/
It argues that bitcoin can reduce poverty.
What could be the other possible benifits of legalizing bitcoin

I guess it's an exaggeration to say that bitcoin will reduce poverty, it's not a magic bean that will solve every human problems we have.

I guess it will be more beneficial if countries are willing to trade with them in their SEZ with bitcoin as well and not fiat. Obviously they are going to accept it, but is the other side willing to used bitcoin to transact with them?

Warriors perfect record pa rin, sa 3 games nila nag cover sila, kaya lang natalo ako kahapon kasi kinuha ko pa ang live betting na -9.5 sa Warriors, di ko akalaing babalik ang Nuggets sa 3rd quarter at lumamang pa sila.  Sad

Anyway, bawi tayo ngayon, parang maganda i parlay ang mga underdogs.

Hawks + Bulls + Pelicans.

Gusto ko tong parlay mo, puro underdogs at dahil na rin sa home court advantage nila.

Nakakatakot nga lang yung Hawks vs Miami, close game to baka maganda mag handicap siguro.

Same sa Phoenix at Pelicans, baka may mag step up sa Phoenix dahil hindi naman ito 1st time na nangyari sa kanila na nawala si Booker sa lineup.

So masid masid na lang tayo sa live betting para mas masaya ang tamaan baka madale tayo ng OT pay hehehehe.

Twolves completely dominating the Grizzlies in the 3rd. It was a battle of the spurt, Twolves put a good lead in the first quarter, but then the Grizzlies cut in in 7 at the end of the first half. Now Twolves on a run, increasing the lead to 20 points.

Don't know if the Grizzlies still has legs to make a comeback in the last 1 and 1/2 quarter. Ja Morant doesn't have his usual game, but it's up to the others to help him out in they don't want to be down in this series again. And lucky for those who bet on the underdog Twolves because the chance for them to win is high with how the game is turning out to be.

Well was rough to watch butemphis covered lol.  Only took a 21-0 run to tie the game up in the 4th quarter lol.  Wolves were too worried about gloating that they forgot the game wasn't over.  They played like complete garbage in the 4th quarter, thank you. 😊

Exactly, not sure if this is the first time that we have seen a team blew not just one 25 point lead, but twice.

Anyhow, we have to thank them for doing us, otherwise we will not hit our winnings on the - handicap for the Memphis team. Sorry for the Wolves fans.

Let me quote Charles Barkley, “The Minnesota Timberwolves… They’re dumber than rocks.”

I feel like I'm too late and the btc price is literally just gonna go sideways forever. Or maybe a slow gradual push up. Maybe in 20 years it will be worth half a mil.

That's all speculation, do you want to be the person way back in 2010 that didn't believed in bitcoin and then start to kick themselves when the price goes to almost $70k last year?

Or you want to get into the market right now, try to get a feel and who knows, maybe it will be worth half a mil or even a million or worst 0 in the next 20 years?  Grin

I just updated the title of this thread. Very unfortunate news for Casimero but he will be covered by Jonas Sultan, another great Filipino boxer and hopefully he can still bring the title to the Philippines.

I will favor Sultan here either by a TKO/KO late in the fight.

Itong dalawa muna ang tatayaan ko dahil kabado pa ako doon sa Mavs vs Jazz, tingnan ko muna kung maglalaro na si Luka.

Tempting kabayan iyong sa Mavericks at Jazz kahit di maglaro si Luka Doncic.

Tingin ko may bounce back na mangyayari at di hahayaan ng Mavericks na maka-isa pa ang Utah Jazz.

Tiwala ako na makukuha nila ang Game 2. Nakataya na kasi ako sa Mavericks sa series na to kaya disregard ko ang mga negative na nangyayari sa team na ito.

Ang galing mo, kuha nga ng Mavs ang game 2 ang hirap ng balik na ginawa nila. Parang ang Jazz talaga kapos sa huli.

At bwenas parin tayo kahit paano 3 out of 3 at isang parlay ulit na 4.41 ang odds.

Bukas naman,

Heat vs Hawks - sa Heat parin ako -7.5
Memphis vs Wolves - tricky tong match na to, pero hindi papayagan ng Memphis na ma 0-2 down sila, kaya -7.5 pa kaya nila to.
Suns vs NOP - Suns parin, -9.5.

It's how you get yourself affected by this so called news to be honest. If you are a person that easily believe in everything you read in the Internet, then you need to be careful. Because not all information are true and validated, we are in an era wherein anyone can write anything. That's why we need to be intelligent and not assumed it is true. This could be FUD to discredit bitcoin or news that is exaggerated or astonished you to the point that you will accept it.
