For those who have been in the bitcoin market, this is no secret. Take for example what happened during the initial news about Covid-19, the price plummeted to $3k, a good buying opportunity and you just have to wait for 2021 bull run.

And we can compare that scenario here, short term, is much riskier though. I would prefer to buy cheap bitcoin in bear market and again, wait for the next stage, bitcoin halving-> eventual bull run in 2024-2025.
4822  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA _ Phoenix Suns vs Dallas Mavericks - 2nd round on: May 02, 2022, 09:59:17 PM
Dallas only has one chance to win this series, and it's with a massive Luka Doncic.
And when I say this I'm not saying the one who has already been playing, although in gross statistics it seems like a phenomenon, but with a Luka who considerably improves his shooting percentage. Since he is throwing a lot and putting not so much.
Phoenix is much more of a team.
Luka is good but Dallas has also improved as a team already.

They were tested in the 1st round when Luka missed a couple of games due to injury, but the Mavericks still beat the Jazz and when Luka was back, they become a stronger team. Brunson has stepped up already, it's a great challenge for the Suns although I must say that Suns undoubtedly has the bigger chance of winning.

Yep, Brunson and Spence Dinwiddie too, but I don't think it will be enough against the Suns though. Jazz has a history of choking and losing close games. But against a strong lineup like the Suns, it will take a lot from Luka if they ever wanted to go to the finals. So this might go on a 6 games with Phoenix winning 4-2 in the series. Goodluck to everyone who are going to bet on this games/series.

Ape got hacked and many NFTs we're stolen, yet we saw many spending hundreds of dollars for gas fee to buy yacht club NFT the other day, are people dense or what? This shows how unsecured NFTs are isn't it? Other than playing all those play to earn NFT games I have no reason to be this serious with NFTs, I just feel like NFTs aren't there yet, maybe they will some day.

You can't blame them, I mean they have money to spend and they have the right to do it. It they got hack or stolen or something bad happens, then it will be an eye opener for them. And yet I don't think they will learn their lessons. Yes, there could be smart people here, but I think there could be set of investors that are still willing to play hundreds of thousands of dollars just to get on the latest NFT hype.

Warriors are not happy with Green's ejection, for me, it doesn't look like an F2 or even a flagrant foul. We know Draymond's reputation but that was a soft foul based on my evaluation, but the refs see otherwise, so this conspiracy theory will come out now again.  Sad

Anyway, Warriors still win, and that's what matters.
I hope they'll sweep this Memphis team. KIDDING!
F1 was the suggestion of commentators and they think that's the best they could give but I was shocked it went further to F2, I guess the crowd also helped by chanting to throw him out.  Grin I agree with the call though as I watched it replayed over and over, F1 for the hit in the face and another 1 to grabbing the jersey which is intentional and could lead to harm to other players. But it's Draymond, I think he can handle those types of decisions with no hard feelings. He is used to it and even went out teasing the crowd to hate him more.  Cheesy

The Bucks played great, the plan was successful to use Giannis and absorb all the defenders to leave an open shooter and Grayson Allen mostly took the credit. 24/13/12 for Giannis. Greatness.

But the referee need to do a better job, not really sure but it seems they wanted the Memphis to win the first game, hehehe. Was able to capture the games late in the 2nd quarter and was not aware that Green though was ejected, but they still manage to win, thanks to Poole's performance.

Never expect that Giannis will have this kind of game. But I do agree that he absorb all the defenders that the Celtics throw on him and they are not successful.

^
since dorsey had BTC integrated to twitter, i think musk will also add doge and probably not just doge.
not very sure if his worse critics will stay on twitter. news online are publishing articles about how to delete twitter account. just how they hate Elon for taking over thier platform that politicians that used to support Elon for this EV now want to boycott him.

Of course, he will definitely add Doge or any other crypto for that matter. He might integrate it in Twitter as tipping in which Jack started with bitcoin.

And there could be a lot of changes in the next coming month, maybe not that huge but it could shape the social media and propel Elon Musk again into the limelight even more.

Heat with a -7.5 point spread seems a little disrespectful to the 76ers. Granted they don’t have Embiid but they’re still a good team. It will be tough for them to get the win without their MVP candidate but I think they might be able to cover the spread. We’ll find out tomorrow as I don’t think their odds will get better as the series goes on. The Suns with a -5.5 point spread on the Mavericks is another tricky bet. I think I might have to sit out and see how game 1 goes before counting the Mavericks out.

I did take both of the spread though, I think if Embiid is not going to play (most likely), the Heat can take and win the game even with a double digit advantage.

I was able to go on live betting 2.07 (+1.5) for the Warriors, and it was a thriller, although Klay hit that three to give them a lead, he misses 2 free throws which could have given the win for those who take the -2.5 spread pre-game handicap.

Galing ng laro ni Giannis laban sa Celtics, sa Boston ako nitong game 1, kaya lang kinain sila ng buo ni Giannis, hindi maawat, pag sumaksak automatic na foul o counted na.

Buti nakabawi ako sa Warriors vs Memphis, nag live betting ako, 2.07 (+1.5) pa nakuha kong odds lamang ang Memphis pa nun 46-39.

Bukas Heat vs Sixers - Heat -7.5
Suns vs Dallas - Suns -5.5

Nah, I would rather stay away from those kind of groups. This is 2022 already and hopefully no one is using this kind of services specially if you are a beginner.

Even if this is free, I will still stay away from it. Better to really learn the tricks and tips in trading by yourself instead of getting trap by these pump and dump groups. On the contrary, you might lose big money joining them, just saying.
4829  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and the future of crypto 10 years from now. on: May 01, 2022, 07:37:38 PM
Bitcoin is the best coin in crypto and as the years passed by there are a lot of coins (altcoins) that is more profitable in terms of investment on both short and long term process, in you're future sights and speculation of btc based on some good promising projects that is now scattering and has a posibility to move to next level in the near future, Can there will be a coin that can manage to surpass btc 10 years from now?

If there is a chance that bitcoin can be topple, it should be it's early years because it is vulnerable to attacks like FUD. But no, not a single altcoin was able to get close to bitcoin because it's simple the prime movers. And with that said, I don't think that there will be coin in the future that can surpassed bitcoin in terms of support from investors. And from the last time we heard, there are governments who chooses to make bitcoin legal tender.
4830  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Mark Magsayo vs Rey Vargas WBC Featherweight Title (July 9) on: May 01, 2022, 06:54:46 PM
It is obvious that this is not going to be a picnic for Magsayo.

Magsayo though should include head movement in this fight. I've noticed that it was not present during the Russell match, he choses to go and bang with Gary.

But this time it will be a different fighter. Vargas is a brawler too, so Magsayo should go with the body in the beginning, side to side movement so that he will be unpredictable in this fight.
4831  Economy / Speculation / Re: [POLL] Will Bitcoin dip below $40K? on: May 01, 2022, 06:30:06 PM
Looks like people were right, Bitcoin dipped below 40k USD for many times and is still below it.

It turned out to be a very bearish market despite announcements from 2 countries to support Bitcoin as official money.
Time to go up for Bitcoin but nobody knows if and when.  Cheesy Cheesy

Because Bitcoin is a scarce asset, we should see it go up at some point.  Smiley

I guess no one can really stop the bear market, even those good news that you mentioned are not enough as we faltered again below $40k and in the danger of seeing that it can go down even further at $35k at least. Hopefully though it can bounce back to the support level of $38k and slowly gaining back that $40k again.

True is a scarce asset, but very volatile and goes into a cycle (bull and bear).
4832  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: May 01, 2022, 01:14:31 PM
I'm riding on the Celtics -4.5 against the Bucks, this series will be costly for the Bucks missing Middleton. It was not felt against the Bulls because they don't play that much defense. But with a team that a solid defense, the Bucks needs to have someone that will help them in offense and Middleton can give them 20 ppg. So it will be a big vacuum that the Celtics are going to exploit.
4833  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: It's the year 2018 over again on: May 01, 2022, 12:12:58 PM
It seems we are already in a bear market but how far can this go? A year or two just like 2018-2019? Or this is a short term bear market? MMCrypto on youtube said that 30,000$ BTC is possible, if this do happens altcoins will bleed more than ever and this will unlock the beginning of the downfall of many altcoins.
I'm sure 2018 won't happen again unless it means bitcoin and other coins are completely wiped out, because some of the communities that I follow they have experienced a long bear market in 2018 and they believe that as long as the bear market will definitely bloom again, with that they will continue to grow. activity as usual in the bear market this time as if nothing had happened and the market seems to be in a stable condition.

What you mean it won't happen again?

Bear market starts when bitcoin goes down, and that is what we are seeing right now. So altcoin market will obviously follow the pattern. So of course, there is a light at the end of the road here. But it will take some time before we experience the next bull run. Bitcoin halving is the catalyst and it will happen again in 2024. So that is like 2 years from now. It is still very far, we have 24 months to prepare and fatten our wallets and buy cheap altcoins.
4834  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Shakur Stevenson vs Oscar Valdez Title Unification Fight (April 30) on: May 01, 2022, 11:42:31 AM
Here is the video of the weigh-in.

Both fighters make the weight and they looked trim.

Oscar said that they are ready to bang if needed and well box if needed as well so I think we can witness world-class boxing a few hours from now, good luck with your bets as well.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p9f6477jNvs&ab_channel=TopRankBoxing

Yes, both make the weight, Valdez looks very serious though and tense in the weigh-in, while Shakur is all smiles and very confident about the fight.

This is going to be a good fight, and it's really hard to predict what will be the outcome. I haven't put my bet yet to be honest.

Although most of the users here have chosen Oscar Valdez to win this fight but this is a fight where I have a hard time choosing whom to bet on.

You can't hurt what you can't hit, that's what I'm thinking right now and I'm skeptical about how can Oscar Valdez could hurt Shakur in this fight but looking at the odds which is too attractive for me, I'm going for Oscar to win this fight.

Hope in the middle rounds when Shakur is already tired, Oscar can unload accurately those power punches that could end the night for the former.



That's why I chooses to skip this fight mate, not sure if Oscar can be competitive with Shakur and we have seen how he got destroyed in this fight. Shakur is too big for him, and it's really interesting how Shakur is taking Oscar best shot and then just go around. Oscar's strategy is to target the body, but Shakur is very strong and intelligent not to engage but play defense early and score points.

4836  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Celtics vs Bucks 2nd round Series. on: April 30, 2022, 06:31:12 PM
If you would based your bet off with the previous matches of this teams, then Bucks has the upper hand as they won 6 games out of their 10 matches. But if you would based off from the current situation, Celtics is indeed having the momentum here as Bucks is down with one of their great players. Even other bettors agrees that Celtics' performance is great and promising now as Jason Tatum and Jaylen Brown are their current carries. I see a Celtics win here in this series.

It’s also important to consider on what team each player beat prior to this upcoming matchup, Celtics sweep Nets which is the crowd favorite while Bucks 4-1 Bulls which is far more weaker than Nets, Nets just have a low standing because there star player just recently came back late for the regular season. Celtics is surely has the upper hand base on the stats but as usual Giannis is incredible during playoffs which might give an upset game for Celtics.

I get what you're saying but this round is different because the Celtics is up against the defending champion who's star player can really be unstoppable if he chooses it to be that way. But yes, let's consider their last opponent which was Nets for the Celtics. Gotta give that credits for the Celtics especially Tatum for stopping the unstoppable duo of the Nets but we can't forget that the Nets is very vulnerable on their defensive which gave them an advantage to pour huge scores.

All I can say was Tatum improves a lot this year. I believe they will be beaten up by Nets if they are still playing like there performance last that full arrogance and has no clutch time experience. The current Boston roster is an improved version of last year. They already gain much experience to close a series without choking. I think they have the best shot to be on finals on East rather than Bucks since Bucks is fully dependent on Giannis. It will need a full hype Giannis to beat Boston to a 7 match series.

Yeah, we have seen how the Celtics really evolved in the last 20 games of the pre-season, and they are one of the hottest team and very consistent as far as winning games. And it carry in their series against the Nets and we've seen how the team shutdown one of the best scorer we have in the league. However, not sure how they are going to stop Giannis but for sure they have a game plan on the big guy. Boston will have the momentum and we will see how the series will go but I think the Celtics will go out and win it in a tough match.
4837  Local / Pamilihan / Re: NBA discussion, betting and etc. on: April 30, 2022, 11:40:23 AM
Okay kayo to mga kabayan?



Plano kung sugalan ang Timberwolves na mananalo sa series kasi close game naman ang series na to.
Kung mananalo ang Wolves bukas, isa nalang ang kulang at since nanalo naman ang wolves sa home court ng Grizzlies, kaya posible manalo ulit sila, wag lang mag CHOKE sa huli.

x6.. di ba maganda, kahit konte lang siguro, mga 3k pesos para may pang happy happy.  Grin

Sugalan mo na ang Wolves, hehehe, naka taya na ako sa kanila ML at nakuha ko pa ng 1.96. Sigurado akong bakbakan tong laban na ato at hindi rin naman basta basta papatalo ang Wolves ngayon. Nung last game muntik na silang makasilat, at ngayon susubukan nilang improved pa ang depensa.

Kinuha ko yong may handicap, Wolves +2.5 @1.80 para kung dikitan yong laro katulad noong nakaraan ay hindi tayo kakabahan ng masyado hehe. Parang may kulang yong opensa ng Memphis kasi hindi nila matambakan yong Wolves (except on that one game) ngayong series na to at nakasilat pa yong Wolves ng panalo sa homecourt ng Grizzlies kaya tingin ko aabot to ng game 7.

Malas tayo mga kabayan, nag choke na naman ang Wolves, halos lahat ng talo nila sa 4th quarter sila tinalo. Maganda sana ang lamang nila, nasa double digit pa pero biglang humina depensa nila sa 4th quarter. Tapos na talaga ang first round, let's move on to the 2nd round.

Anak ng tokwa talaga, akala ko winner na tayo, pag pasok ng 4th quarter may iba na nang ihip pero may pag-asa pa nung last 3 minutes. Pero nung nakita ko na lumamang na ang Grizzlies, wala na d ko na pinanood at alam ko na mag choke ang team na to kasi walang experience at walang loob, parang kabado, samantalang buong buo ang loob ni Ja Morant na i lead ang team nya.
4838  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Breaks Past The $40,000 Barrier Again? on: April 29, 2022, 11:22:21 PM
The last few weeks have seen bitcoin fall after trying to break resistance around 43k. But so far nothing bad has happened. We are still at the support level. Even if the price goes down to 37k, I don't think it will be for long. I think this is a very good time to buy. If they give an opportunity to buy even cheaper it will be even better.

We are about to enter a new month, and with that we have high hopes that we can go and at least make a run to $43k. That will be the plan for now, and we don't what the price to go lower than $40k because chances are, we might see another set of selling off from those who panic seeing this price level. So hopefully everything will be good this May, so still a good time to buy and invest again below $40k, still cheap and if ever the price goes up, it will be an instant profit.
4839  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: April 29, 2022, 10:39:53 PM
^^ Those games are really interesting and it's going hard to predict.

I love the Suns vs Dallas, will be interesting how the Suns is going to stop Luka with Bridges and Jae Crowder having that task.

And then CP3 against Brunson, of course CP3 will have the advantage but I think Brunson will excel in this series.

The good thing with the Mavericks now is that they have proven that they are not just a one-man team, when Luka was out, everyone was stepping up and they beat the Jazz on some games. Though I believe that the Suns have the edge here, but I won't discount the capability of the Mavericks of beating the Suns as they are a good team for sure.

I do agree, it will not be a easy series for the Suns, although I believed that they will win against Dallas. It will still be CP3 team and he will carry Phoenix again just like what he did against the Pelicans. Might go to 6 or 7 game series but eventually I will favor the Suns. The Mavs is good with Luka but I think they still have some missing piece in order to be a great team.
4840  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: April 29, 2022, 10:06:36 PM
I'm going with the ML bet for Dallas, I don't think that the Jazz can stop Luka and it seems that they are very tired in this series. You can see that in the 4th quarter, they seems to be very tired chasing the small lineup of Mavericks.
Same, the odds on the Mavericks' are just too good @1.89 given they were close to sweeping the Jazz at their home and i've mentioned it before that they just have to hold off the Jazz in the first half like what happened last game since the Jazz likes to capitalize on early leads. If they win here they'd probably get some nice resting time while waiting for the winner of the Suns' series.



Congrats to you mate as well, Lol, Jazz wasted the series and they could have force OT but chooses to go for a win.

Memphis vs Minnesota, I like the Twolves chance to win game 6 and force a decider  Grin. The odds swell to 2.x now, it's really that attractive so I will go with them in this match.
