4841  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How do you feel, Looking at the Bullrun market? on: February 11, 2021, 10:40:31 AM
Are you sad to see the current market situation? YES to ME  Cry
1. Seeing insane eth gas costs, Unable to trade small amounts of tokens due to expensive shipping costs.
2. Seeing the increase in the price of BTC reaching the new ATH, I can't do much because I don't have any BTC investments or other coin investments whose prices have gone up.

Oh my GOD .. my life is very sad. I hope BTC and ETH prices drop dramatically, amen  Grin

There can't be any chance for the price to drop right now because of the non-stop good news regarding the crypto industry these few days. WIse investors are hoping to see the market drop again to buy some cryptocurrencies of their choice to join this spike but that would never happen unless some kind of negative news will drove back the price to its past which is more likely not happen. Last year was our chance when the price of BTC hits $8,000 that's when the signal tells us to invest but most of us ignore it because we wait for further fallback but it never happens. Now that the price is far away from that, the only chance right now is to take the risk to invest at the current market price.

Tyson Fury is such a unique fighter.  Every time he goes into a fight I think he's going to lose badly, but he always wins.  I saw a sports science episode on him I'll never forget.  The guy's ability to react and dodge fights is super human.  Literally, his response time is far greater than most human beings to the point it has allowed him to become an elite fighter in spite of some major flaws.  Given his appearance, I think his gifts catch opponents off guard and allow him to take advantage of their underestimation of him.  I don't think his style is a secret, so you know fighters are training for it, but seeing it in person is another story they can't really train for which is why I think it catches them off guard even when they are expecting it.

Considering his flawless record, his opponent should come out with something that would work to beat him up, or else Fury will demolish him like any other boxers he fought. I also thought that this man was close to retirement but when I say his age, he is not that old. He has some unique skills that his opponent doesn't have and also hard to punch as well. If they gonna fought in the middle east then this fight is pretty big and he should get also consider getting all of the unification heavyweight title after he wins this fight.
4843  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin Crash? on: February 11, 2021, 08:29:10 AM
Technically it is possible if we are talking about crashing to zero. It is nothing to be afraid of though, that is a typical scenario for bitcoin, remember that 2017 was considered a crash by many (I'm not sure) but look at what happened to bitcoin, it bounced back. Even if there is a possibility, trusting bitcoin is the only thing that we can do, crashes shows who is worthy of a big profit.

Yeah! considering its current situation the price right now might become permanent or not and after some time, the price will also have some chance to fall back again or crashing. When that happens, I'm sure there will be some huge reasons behind it since the price in the market right now doesn't budge if it's just some simple negative news about bitcoins. Now is the time for investing and no reasons for it to back out for now judging from its current situation. Unlike in the year 2017, people are carefully investing right now, as most of them learned from their mistakes.

2 back to back OT games between OKC and Lakers. From the looks of it, it seems like another OT win for the Lakers. LeBron's clutch 3 pointer tied the game to bring it into overtime. Dort had a free 3 for the win, but he missed it.

In the other game, Bucks trailed by 1 with 2.5 secs to go and they decided to give the ball to Giannis outside the 3point line instead of giving it to Middleton. Giannis takes a jumper and of course, misses. I don't know why Giannis is standing outside of 3 point line in the first place and what their plan was with just 2.5 secs remaining.

Edit: Lakers win 114 - 113 OKC

That 3 pointers made by Lebron in the last minute of the 4th quarter were their key to won the game as it forced them to go to the OT to compete furthermore with the young team OKC. now they finally got the 20 wins.

Honestly, if this kind of Lakers will get to the playoff without AD, I think they won't survive the 1st round since they are having a hard time getting the lead in the earliest quarter. thankfully they keep pushing and finally won this match. I wanted to see them compete with another team without AD since these last two games were only VS OKC, if they will get another win with that, then I'll change my opinion regarding playoffs.

Some NBA superstars who oppose the yearly NBA allstar because there's no fans in attendance, which really makes sense. The NBA allstar game is for the fans to entertain. LeBron, Giannis, and Kawhi just showed their lack of enthusiasm to play in the ASG to be held at Atlanta.
With their statement it seems that the ASG this year might not be as entertaining as last year.

But here's my first 5 ASG from both conferences.

West
LeBron
Jokic
Kawhi
Steph Curry
Doncic

East
Durant
Giannis
Embid
Beal
Irving


I like your selection both West and East.

LeBron leading the west while KD for the east, though just like from your statement interest coming from those superstars are not that much as this pandemic really affecting them mentally. If only the timing was perfect if there's no pandemic this battle between East and West will really bring entertainment to all the fans.

As of today, this is the player that you wanted to see playing together as a team and I wonder if Jordan Clarkson will also be in the All-Star this season because He and the Utah Jazz has to show tremendous games to first reached 20 wins in the NBA this season. Most likely this game will be the battle between KD and LBJ also I'm really excited to watch the game where Jokic and Embiid compete with each other.

The big companies are buying bitcoin and manipulating the market. one day they will start to sell all bitcoins and we will have a very big shock. imagine that you think that crypto is your enemy, if you want to destroy it, first you will buy as much as you can, you will make the market goes up, after you will sell all coins and you will destroy the market, take money of small investors and make them hate the crypto.

when i saw a company buy big amount of coin, i afraid.

Your logic is weak because those companies don't have the same strategies when it comes to their investment. of course, some will win and some will lose. you just need to choose the right timing to sell yours. You cannot stop this kind of thing from happening and most of all there's no such thing in the investment where you won't ever lose. Of course, If they wanted to hold their BTC when the price is quite high, then they are free to do so, and when they chose to hold it for long they have completely free to do so as well.
4847  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: February 10, 2021, 12:38:55 PM
Overeem had somewhat of a decent run before the loss.  He’s not over the hill yet or anything imho.  I mean he should’ve won vs Rosentruik if not for that nasty punch at the last 5 secs.  He did well vs Walt Harris.  And had a really great win vs Sakai.  But after this loss...  Dunno.  He could be near the end of his run at the UFC.


There is an unspoken rule, that Dana White fire people after 3 straight losses, if they are just a regular fighters. Overeem has only 1 loss streak so far, and he is a star. People would definitely buy tickets or PPV if they know Overeem is fighting. I think it is too early to think he will retire. Like you said, he "had a great win vs Sakai". Overeem still can an interesting fight.

Speaking about Volkov - great performance. He deserves a rematch against Derrick Lewis. Lewis is top4 (Volkov top5 now). Volkov was leading in fight against Lewis, but when there few second till the fight end, ate a heavy punch and was TKOed. If not that punch, he would have won that fight by majority decision.

This whole UFC is just run by one man and cannot manage all of their fighters because there are lots of them actually. so they need to do the cleaning process every year but of course, this is something they don't talk about because it is taboo or forbidden to talk about it in their contract. Those poor fighters, they needed to win to stay in the competition and those who will lose without having any popularity remain will be kicked out. It's the same in the NBA, right? those players that haven't show any improvement will likely go to China after their contract is finished. I wonder where those UFC fighters go when they are done in UFC?

I've been using Binance's XRP conversion before sending it to my local exchanges for my convenience and I find no problem until now. You just need to contact their official support to know the truth behind your frozen funds. You don't need to panic here, you just need to contact them as soon as possible and be prepared for anything they might ask you. Things like these are easy to fix especially with the Binance customer support service because they are not like exchanges that are slow in their customer support. Be careful not to entertain any strange emails regarding your problem because they will likely take advantage of your current situation to fool you, stick to the Binance customer support so that you can fix the problem smoothly.
4849  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Vs Future? on: February 10, 2021, 06:24:50 AM
i have been in the cryptocurrency field since 2014 and i have seen the brightest and darkest days of BTC but when i look at the current rising conditions of the bitcoin market i see that we have come a long way and most of the world is accepting the cryptocurrency payments and some lager brands are also connected to the BTC world.

but sometimes a thought crosses my mind that will these conditions last longer and better in the future?

what do you guys have to say about it?

let us know  Smiley

I think there's a higher chance that we will discuss this issue 10 years later because of the current market situation. as you can see right now, the price of BTC doesn't cease and it continues to spike or stay at that higher price for more than a month now. remember when we had such a scenario before? No! I don't cause we haven't seen like this before and that's the kind of reason that is valid for us to give an opinion that the same topic that you ask will gonna ask 10 years from now. Unless we are experiencing any drought which is not gonna happen soon because the good news is feeding the market everyday.

The New Orlean Pelicans shows some good defence in the early game which made them lead the score throughout the game. It is entertaining to watch the explosive Alley-oops by Williamson. He is just getting some improvement day by day by competing these guys. they are a few games away from getting to the top 8. they're winning straight games, I hope they can at least force they way to top 8 or 7 because playoff games are different because the game is so intense as everyone is hungry to get to the NBA Finals.

4851  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: I have been scammed 0.20 btc, what can I do? on: February 10, 2021, 02:32:58 AM
Well that, yesterday they scammed me 0.20 btc in binance

A guy by telegram gave me proof hours before the coin that was going to be pumped, which was VIB, which was the admin of BIG PUMP SIGNAL, and I paid him 0.20 btc for the information, and today he has blocked me.


I only have his Btc wallet number and his telegram nothing else.

can I do something reporting it to the police?

Will binance help me identify that person after I have sent the money?

thanks

The only thing you can do right now reports them to Binance and post here what they say about your problem because if you guys negotiate in Telegram, I doubt that Binance will take charge of your problem because there's always a warning that you need to be vigilant every time you made some transactions with the other people on the internet because most of them are just crooks and you've just fallen to his trap. Do the necessary action that kind of BTC is hard to earn nowadays.

~snip~
In the otherside, there are many people who are still leaning with luck, thinking that they'll be able to hit the winning number and change their life forever.

We can't remove that fact, lottery gives hope to those people who do believe with luck, even they'll just saying in words that they are just enjoying betting with high risk bets knowing that the winning chance is really small compared to other types of gambling but once luck permits you to win, you'll never know what you'll do with the winning money that you'll have.
That is normal if they think that they can hit the winning from their luck. But what they don't know or forget is they can't always have their luck come when they gamble, so they keep playing gambling without thinking to stop.

In many countries, the lottery is something that gives promising that makes them always buy the lottery. They rely on their luck when they buy a lottery, and even if they know the chance is not too big, they still buy the ticket and hope they can win.

With numbers of people will same mentalities, lottery is the very common hope for those who are leaning with luck. Once you hit that it will surely gives you a better life.

This hope are flowing from the minds of many people around the world, the key point is the luck that might comes your way and brings you the win that all those bettors desire.

Sure deal, even those bettors keeps losing money from each time the draw was made.

The operator of this kind of game really knows how to attract people by making the ticket cheap so that many people can afford to buy it. every day, they can earn as many as their current jackpot price. They have some unique strategy to keep the people playing and when the time when still no one wins the jackpot prize, they keep increasing it, and that kind of strategy too, keep the people from joining the draw every day.

Kung hindi na ito mababawasan at patuloy pa rin ang pagtaas ng presyo nito, siguradong dadami ang mga taong mahihikayat nito lalo na sa mga taong dati pa ay meron ng plano para mag invest sa bitcoin pero nagdadalawang isip sila. ngayon ay nakikita na nila yung kagandahang resulta ngunit kailangan nila pa rin mag-ingat and mapagmatyag dahil kung babagsak ang presyo pagkatapos nilang bumili sa ganitong halaga, malaking pera ang mababawas sa kanila. kaya dapat talaga ang pera na pag invest dito ay yung galing sa extra savings para walang talo kahit babagsak ulit ang presyo. Siguro naman sa ganyang scenario ay dadami talaga and mga investors ng BTC dahil kapag tumataas ang presyo nito na cucurious ang mga tao pati sa google nung nakaraang mga buwan ay makikita na nangunguna ang ang mga katagang bitcoin sa resulta ng most recently search word.

Good comeback by the Lakers who were down 11points at a point in the 4th qtr. LBJ with 28 points and Harrell taking advantage of OKC not having a strong center and got 21 points. Lebron got his triple double with 28points, 14 rebounds and 12 assists.

Another triple double, good for James, that will again add on his achievement and he will continue to rise in ranking.

Currently he is rank at number 5 for "Players with the most triple doubles in the NBA all-time as of January 2021" according to.

https://www.statista.com/statistics/695594/all-time-nba-triple-double-leaders/

It was a close game that leads to overtime that was a crucial game for Lebron and the others because AD was not playing today. Most of the critics think that without AD Lakers is nothing but they proved it today without a doubt they are one of the contender team even though without AD. What more if they made AD play today and the reasons they were trailing because Kuzma's shot from the ark was not successful. Thankfully the other teammates have done their job well and they are now 1 win away to 20 wins.

Los Angeles Lakers 19-6
4855  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: When will the Ethereum Gas Fee go down? on: February 09, 2021, 04:01:59 AM
It's so difficult to make a single transactions now under Ethereum blockchain. A very high gas fees are killing small investors and traders. But miners would love to see gas fees going to the moon because they benefited from it. However, this is not good for Ethereum in the long run, their users/consumers are suffering but their miners are enjoying this high gas fees.
Also, Ethereum competitors will surely grab this high gas fees opportunity. It's not good.
When will the Ethereum gas fee go down? Anyone knows?


The people who hold their ETH right now are the ones winning this bull-run and those who have some altcoins that needed to be traded using the Ethereum Network, have suffered the sudden increase of the gas fee. I'm sorry to say that this kind of scenario will last long especially when the price of ETH is high and there are lots of people currently using the network for their activities. This is a lesson for us whenever we have some tokens in our wallet, we need to stack some ETH to be used for later transactions especially when the price is high like what we are experiencing now.

As you can see, this is not pleasing to watch:

4856  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Tesla buys 1.5 BILLION worth Bitcoins !! Good or Bad ? on: February 09, 2021, 03:06:14 AM
Good news for future adoption but what happen to the market now is bad IMO as it pump so hard and it could create a huge FOMO that could possibly make other investors who ride now regret their decision. I don't blame them sharing it to the public, they buy bitcoin because they invested it and want it grow in the long run, but we should be more careful especially the people who get FOMO as there's always the other side of this bull run.

I think you're right because there are some people out there who only wait for the price to increase even more before selling their BTC and also they're holding a huge amount of BTC as well. If they happen to sell their BTC after this event then Tesla really needs to hold their BTC for a long time or after the price will greatly increase again because they bought their BTC when the price was high. There is a good thing with their decision as well because if the price will continue to increase even after this announcement, their investors' investment would be safe as well.  
4857  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Miguel Berchelt vs Oscar Valdez WBC Super-Featherweight Title on: February 09, 2021, 02:18:43 AM
They both have good winning records. Both are the same from Mexico, only different areas of birth. For the match I thought it would be fun. They are both strong. But I wanted Barchelt to win. Because Valdez just gave up his title and moved up to WBC super featherweight. Besides that Barchelt has more competitive experience it will benefit him. I heard that he will also move up to the light class at 61.2 kg if there is an attractive offer. Looks like Barchlet wants to bring good results to enter the light class.

This is like watching the Morales vs Barrera fight where both of them from the same country as well and have something to get excited for when they face each other in the ring. I think if this fight comes close or they won't knock out each other after the end of the fight, we will see them fight again. They should trash talk each other before the fight more likely in the interview so this fight will be exciting to watch. They haven't had some popularity in the other country, they really need that to increase the market if they ever want to fight again in the ring.
4858  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: February 09, 2021, 01:10:41 AM
I think that so much intensity every time he plays makes the injury more serious, if you see all his performance was out of this world, I have seen the reviews, and that put pressure on the muscle, he could have been like LeBron if he chooses plays only when needed, but what can I say he doesn't want to hold back every game and put an amazing show for us, maybe he can be an assistant coach or coach in the near future for rose?

He was that good and unstoppable before the injury has happened to him that made him a bench player nowadays. Injury after injury and they've missed the playoffs those past years. I think he needs he can have a chance again to play in the playoffs if the Knicks will hold that position right now until the playoffs. Derrick Rose has something to prove when he gives all his best in a game especially when competing with the contender teams. He jumped like there is no tomorrow that's the way he plays his game in the past.

I was reading your post and looking for words where it says cryptocurrency but no luck. Even though that kind of drug is most likely can be bought on the internet using cryptocurrencies. There is some kind of tendency that the man has not been a Bitcoiner his whole life and maybe he just got it from someone who got it from another source who doesn't even know about where the drugs came from. well if someone publishes such news and link crypto currencies to in or Bitcoin, that surely affect the image of bitcoins but nott today because most people in the world knows that this kind of has nothing to do with bitcoin like the fiat has nothing to do even though it was used for criminal activity, the word money or dollars has nothing to do with the crime.
4860  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: May-Pac 2, will it finally happen? on: February 08, 2021, 11:00:56 AM
The fight between Mayweather and Pacquiao will be a big event since they are already fighting for years and people wouldn't be satisfied if Mayweather managed to win the future fight with unanymous decision in a way of only ducking style unless he managed to knockout pacquiao. The people are getting angry on the last fight that they had because it is not a good fight and others are saying that Mayweather is such a scaredy guy while manny is charging. I hope that the future fight will be a good fight since both of them has a good experience on boxing. When that time happens, I am going to bet to pacquiao again because Filipino pride won't be easily defeated by that one single fight and we know that pacquiao always lose on first fight and wins on the rematch.

Everyone in the industry of Boxing wants to witness this fight once more and this time might be different because they are both past their retirement age on boxing which is 40 years old. There are no certain retirement age requirements but most boxers retired after reaching that age. They really need to consider making this fight happen because they might no second chance anymore they are both old by the way. But this kind of fight will not likely happen because of the money issue on both parties. If they gonna fight for glory this fight would already last up to 3rd fight like how Pacquiao usually gives his opponent satisfaction fights
