The thing about EOS and Tron is that they were both once big, but today they are not anymore and they are not doing that great. I am not saying that they will stay this way but it is clear to me that we are looking at two things that could have been great and had immense potential and just screwed it.

I mean if they were really good, they would have been in the top 5 right now, because they were loved that much and the future looked that great for them. Nowadays, we see ADA without even having a proper smart contract deal above TRON and that should tell you all you need to know about it. If they keep this up, eventually they both will be out of top 100.

I don’t think so. I think that the government are starting to know that without centralised exchanges that their  power on cryptocurrency community is useless. If the government decides to ban cryptocurrency, and stop centralized exchanges it might affect the market for a short time because mostly people who are newbies in the market will be confused as to how to go about it.

Some people don’t know how to make use of decentralized exchanges, so they tend to go for centralized exchanges like coinbase.com which offers them simplicity. But, as time goes on they will get to learn how decentralized exchanges and wallets works and then they will all get back and the cryptocurrency community will start blooming again while the government is left in the dark.

And the government wouldn’t like to experience such so they will still want centralized exchanges to continue and would want everybody to make use of centralized exchanges so that they will be able to control the crypto-currency market.

I have to say if you are waiting for over 3 months on a place that is wildly talked about as "scam", then maybe it is time to give up?

Erdogan gets paid to defend this place, he has been here for many many months now and that is understandable that he will keep on defending it. You could try to argue against it, but dude literally has a negative trust because of defending here, meaning if he wants to leave here and starts promoting any other place, no other place would take him. This is why he is forced to defend this place to earn money or earn no money at all, those are the only options available for him right now.

Yes, trading and gambling can be similar in some ways but when it comes to gambling even after you have developed strategies and analyzed everything it still comes down to how much luck that you have. Gamblers mostly counts on luck and it’s not like trading where you can be able to predict the next move that the market would make and be at least certain about it to an extent. But I'm not trying to disagree with you on that.

Secondly it is very important that people learn to limit their budget when trading. Most people tend to forget that trading is a risky business and if you lose your money it is gone. Unless you are lucky enough and maybe you end up recovering what you have lost. But, what if you are affected in a way that you lost more than half of your money? That is when it becomes a problem, if you also don't have money to spare. So, it is very important that anyone who is trading puts the risk that are involved into consideration.

This is the true answer. If they are trading, and they have a small chance to achieve what they are trying to achieve, spending extra amount and time to send the money from the wallet to the exchange and then trade, and trade back and send it back again all would be too inefficient.

I do not believe that we should be putting our trading money into anywhere else, if you are a trader then just keep it in the exchange. Hell, I do not trade that much and yet I still keep all my money in Binance, I just trust them more than I trust any wallet, and it is free to use them as a wallet as well, not only it is free, you could even stake or earn interest there as well.

I agree. In my nation people and specially politicians didn't like crypto for the longest time up until 2017, from 2008 to 2017 they saw it as a bad thing and banned it. However, during the 2017 pump, things started to change and by 2018 we have it legalized and by today we have it not only legalized but supported and ads all over the television channels for the local exchanges.

From a nation that banned it, to a nation that has 1.5+ million users daily, and this is not the total user amount, this is literally the amount of people who bought or sold crypto in a single day on average. So, it is good that politicians could change their minds.

This has been the case for USDT ever since it was created, and yet people still invested heavily into it for some reason. Same goes for USDC and BUSD as well, one exchange is behind both of them (coinbase and binance) and that means if we are talking about stablecoins, we are talking about three big exchanges that are behind 150+ billion dollars worth of stablecoins total.

This is why it is very very scary to us that 3 exchanges could literally ruin all of crypto world. I am not saying that they will, why would they, they are making a lot of profit from them so they won't but the fact that they even "could" do that is scary enough for me.

The release of stress is the main reason why we all gamble, it is certainly one of the better methods to release stress. I gamble a lot on dice even after we switched over from primedice to stake years ago (well primedice is still there if you want to gamble) because that's what I got into when I first started gambling in crypto.

I do gamble sports, and I do gamble some slots but in the end I always get back to dice games for sure. And I have to say I probably lost around a few thousand dollars in total over 5+ year period, that's like 200k+ by now when you consider the increase in BTC price. However, I always say that it's small amount when you divide it per day, and I had that much fun to make it worth it.

Everyone likes to buy btc when it's cheap and not all of them are long time holders but 2x correction looks pretty brutal if we are at 60k last time and price corrected at 30k, that's only 1x correction so if it's 2x, the price will nearly go down to zero? damn. I am not sure if that can cause for people to panic buy or maybe they are going to panic literally thinking that it's now the end of bitcoin.

People have different sentiments about the war, some say wars affect the prices of the coins while others say it didn't. If you believe that wars are nothing against the price then you can trade normally. It's always better to trade with a peaceful mind.

The approach in the big nations changed as well. Plenty of big nations either banned it or did not have any laws about it. Today we have Coinbase, which is one of the biggest exchanges in the entire world, being listed on stock market of the USA, which is a big big move. People forgot about that, and did not realize how big of a deal that is.

When a company dealing in crypto gets listed in the USA stock market, that is the biggest proof you need that crypto is as legal as it gets and can't get any more legal than that. And this happened in the USA, one of the if not the richest nation in the world. So do not assume anything will go badly, it will definitely go greatly.

If you keep on staking BFG, that means you are getting more and more interest towards something that has utility. That is why people keep doing that. I am not saying that you are guaranteed to make an income from it, obviously you could lose money as well.

But, between making money from dividends, or staking, or keep using it where people end up spending it, we are talking about something that at least has some ties to real usage and that is very important in crypto. We are filled with so many terrible tokens that have absolutely no usage aside from just swapping that people are fine with biswap, babyswap or whatever else swap they could find to do BFG staking.

Isn't it so weird to see Barcelona this way. They were always a great team and nobody even imagined seeing them in the europa, everyone expected them to be out of the group stage in UCL, but with Koeman they became so bad that they really had to change so much, they are still in big financial trouble and even though they were given 70-80 or something million salary budget, they are spending 100+ million more than that.


But at the end of the day, this team recovered so amazingly, beating everyone with 4 goals so frequently that right now we are feeling like watching the old Barcelona aren't we? I mean I certainly am getting the same feeling right now.

It is the worst time for South African cricket that they are losing ODI series against Bangladesh, specially losing this last ODI by 9 wickets and 24 overs spare at home is surely one of there the worst performance in recent years. We all know how strong was South Africa few years back but now suddenly just because of internal politics and decisions which are coming just because of personal egos are hurting them very badly.

Their domestic set up is also having not good system which can bring some good and quality players because recently we have mostly average players coming which are mostly coming just because of colour without any merit is also having not good impact hopefully they will take this as wake-up call and now try to settle things in positive for Test Series.

We can stack money but its value can decline. It doesn't make sense to stack it but why not stack btc instead? because btc value cant depreciate but it only can become valuable in the long run and of course we shall spend our btc too sometimes because this is the true meaning of btc for spending but is there a hodler that hodl's forever and for what purpose they are doing it? there is some point of their lives that they will decide to sell their btc for profit or spend them on some item directly.

Spending btc can indeed help the adoption because others will get curious if you use your btc to buy stuff and they will use btc too later on but first we need to wait for our country to make btc as a legal tender.

The sad thing about betting and the real sports is that the amount watched and the amount wagered is not the same. For example, you could have tennis being watched less than X sport, but wagered a lot more. I do not know why, I do not understand how that works, but I know that people like to wager a lot more on tennis than some of the other sports that end up getting watched. Same goes for volleyball as well, gets a lot more wagering.

The rank of "most watched sports" vs "most wagered sports" is not the same. This results with polling not to be correct at all times, it results with people picking what they watch, instead of what they wager.

It was always obvious that whenever market does something to trick charts, that ends up with people getting confused about the situation for sure. I am not saying that it is a lie, obviously it is not and the price went low. But when there is a chart that shows that it could go down after x happens, those wealthy manipulators make X happen somehow and then result with increasing the price.

We should not really be expecting it to happen at anytime soon, but I believe 50k+ is coming if the wealthy started to look at it in a shining light. If they are trying to trick us to think it will go down, that means they want it to go up.

At a certain point they just found their rhythm and they have been playing well. Sometimes a team needs to click properly to make it work, even if you play the same roster and same tactic, things could change all of a sudden because team realizes how to play together better and better each game. It's experience.

The oldest problem Turkish teams always had that they barely ever played with the same eleven for years, even having like 8 players who are the same players for 5 years is something we do not see that often. This is why it took fener to get better this long, because they are not a team that gets all that much time together with the same 11 playing.

Jason Roy is surely one of the best player in short format, and he was very good in CWC in England where he destroys many bowlers with his skills, but sadly he has never been an ideal person with many controversies on and off field issues related with him in last many years.

Now, this new case is surely having something serious most chances it's not related to spot fixing or leaking information's to bookies if we have any case like this then surely ECB will give all updates about this to media so most chances it's related to some internal issue like drugs or his behavior just because of this ECB just announces some fine and nothing else. Recently we have things like these in Sri Lankan tour of England but SLCB give all details about this and then give punishment to their players but here just this statement is just wired.

I would have to say that it is clear to me we are not going to end up with a big deal out of "all" coins. I mean it is obvious that some of them will fail. Maybe it is the veteran in me, but I know that shiba and the likes will fail, the memecoin ones. How do I know this? Because if a project is basing all of the success on hype alone then it will die, hype is temporary and it will not continue.

What I believe however will happen is that we will see a lot more people making a better coin or token, where the features and the roadmap has serious stuff in it, even better there will be some new features that we haven't seen before, those will succeed.
