Melo didn't start that well not only on offense but on defense neither. He hasn't played a "real" game for the past year so it was expected of him to go 4/14 from the floor, that is not even that bad when you look at it like that.

However, dude didn't even guarded his man one on one let alone really go after boards that hard and wasn't really paying attention to other teams offensive scheme that much.

You know why players like Lebron will never be out of work? Those guys could be 50 years old and if they want to they will still get a contract. Why? Because, if you give them 1 year absence, they will watch and memorize every single play and system on each team and when they come back they will be prepared for anything. Melo probably just shot balls all year while waiting.
4882  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What's up with Ethereum? on: November 20, 2019, 09:56:33 AM
I think almost all altcoin is experiencing a decline like eth. since the first quarter of 2018 the bitcoin market has declined and this has had an impact on the altcoin market. plus the many cases of ICO scams make eth values increasingly fall. because some ICOs use eth. if there are currently very few ICO projects, then eth demand is also greatly reduced. I think this is one of the reasons eth prices continue to decline. I hope that when Bictoin splits in the next year the eth value will increase.
I am sure that Ethereum too knows that they are being affected by this and they need to do something about it since the only real use case that they have right now is still their china, except maybe the futures they want to introduce in their next upgrade which I don’t see as a product that will really drive the market as much as ICO did.

Their chain service for ICO is still a very good product at any time, but there is lots of limitation on it and this limitation is what they really need to first of all take out of their way first if they really want to have more growth in the value of their coin, because if they dint do something about it, they might eventually be losing their dominance to bitcoin and may get to a point where bitcoin increase will not affect them again.

I have a friend who bought xem when it cost very very little and earned more than $ 100K on growth, I think that now there will be such coins that our pockets can make rich, you just need to know which projects have a chance, so let's offer each other options Smiley
You already have an answer there my friend as it will be very hard for you to see such coin again, I am sure that the time your friendly got lucky about that project was probably the time that the hype of altcoins was still high and we still have very much interest of investor in most altcoins, but know now that it is very hard to get the trust of investor again on these coins because they feel lots of projects that we have now are shit project and it will take lots of strength and lot of new idea before investor can be revived again, which I thought that IEO was going to do and talking of IEO, I think that IEO can actually do this for you, when you make investment in projects that are being released under IEO platform on an exchange platform like that of binance.

you will see some people here who will suggest projects that they've just invested and won't be able to justify why they've invested on it.
That is how most helpful and informative threads are being detailed across this forum. We cannot do anything about the people who spam or doing paid reviews. But, when we watch closely we may easily filter out them. So, I mean to say this types of threads with real life experience and knowledge will be definite asset for all of us.
4884  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: majority of blockchain project has lost focus on: November 19, 2019, 05:30:19 PM
Blockchain is open for all and free from censorship and regulations. Although blockchain is revolutionary technology scammers are taking full advantage of anonymity. This is the main reason why investors are taking less interest in ICOs but IEO is the solution for this.
Then please tell me how IEO has been a solution to these also because most of the people that are in charge of the IEO are also scammers as what they are after is thee money that the projects will use to register for the IEO and not after the project itself, it is only few exchanges like Binance and some other top exchange that are still doing their due diligent on a project before they release it, other exchange that I have seen are scams.

The regulation that we are all shying away from is actually the real solution to stopping some of the bad blockchain projects, because most of the project that we have don’t even know how to apply the blockchain technology, as what they just do is to hire an expert who would not follow through because of other project to help them develop something presently which they are not capable of carrying through.

Once again just 3 people who have their names open in the top 10, whats the point of having this marketing I will never know, maybe they are not even real people, as long as I don't see 5+ people on each of them I feel like this is marketing for no purposes at all.

Still, wagering numbers are increasing and people are gambling more here but is it really just because of the contest? Is it really growing just because of the race here? I doubt people are working that hard and collectively coming here just to gamble for the 1000 daily race that is not really even 1000 for the winner? I think this website just grew organically and people do gamble and some do care about the race but usually because of all these "hidden" stuff not that many really want to gamble here just because of the race.

blackjack is probably going to make earnbet better. Is that going to be the 21?
Blackjack could be really good addition if they end up doing it but the team really sucks and they do absolutely nothing for the website aside from working behind the curtains to make themselves more money.

When it is adding a new game or adding a new coin or whatever they take ages to do that but when it is about working with binance and putting the token up there they work like hell, so that means they don't care about the gambler, they care about how much money they will make, that is not bad for the investors and investors should be happy because whatever makes the team money also makes money for you (dividends and so forth) but for gamblers this website has been gone for months now, nobody would be willing to play in a place where they know they will not be cared for.

Well, euro 2020 qualifiers looks to be done, there has been a decent amount of big wins from England side, they beat Bulgaria 6-0 and Montenegro 7-0 and now Kosovo 4-0, they played some great games and showcased how they are ready for the euro 2020, will they be actually pulling a shock and get the cup when it matters? I wasn't expecting Ukraine to be this good, honestly it is my own fault because I don't really know the Ukrainian players, but they seem really good as well.

Turkey seemed to play amazingly as well, they ended up finishing the group at second place but they played 10 games and only conceded 3 goals while scoring 18 goals, that looks like a team that is miles better than the team that missed the world cup, surely they will have big goals as well.
4888  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Be careful with margin trading. (story) on: November 18, 2019, 08:20:50 PM
I also do not advise anyone to use margin trading. This can only be done by real professionals who have worked more than 10 years in the market. Because margin trading for newcomers is a common lottery in which new traders always lose.
If you yourself do not know how to trade, then read more articles. For example, I use the Neironix because there every day there is a quality technical analysis and market review. Yes, and on the news there you can trade
It is not even about being a professional trader, margin trade is generally a risky trade and I would not advise someone to go for it, although we have so many people that are in experience about this, so they will not understand this until they try it themselves and then fail, maybe then, they will learn from their mistake.

I remember that I never listened to people’s advice about going for margin trade and the worst thing about mine is that I was even greedy about my own leverage which I really leveraged high till I lost thousands of money to Forex trading and when I heard that they introduced margin trade to cryptocurrency also, I ran away from it like my dear life was at stake because I knew the experience I had passed through in Forex.
4889  Economy / Economics / Re: At which price will loose Bitcoin the dominance in the Crypto Market? on: November 18, 2019, 05:44:33 PM
While I have always thought that at some point investors will get tired of investing in icos and losing all their money I am still surprised it has happened already.

The bitcoin dominance is still above 65% and it seems that it does not matter what happens that number does not drop, ethereum and the other altcoins will need to get the attention of investors with something big because if they do not and we are close to those levels when the next halving happens it will not be strange if we saw a bitcoin dominance above 80% after the halving.
No matter what altcoin does, bitcoin will always have dominance more than them because if you take a look at bitcoin now, I think that it is the only coin that has not disappointed people while other coin and even the Ethereum has disappointed people, so if Ethereum even start rising now, I think that there will still be more activities surrounding bitcoin more that will always lead to the dominance of bitcoin every time.

For bitcoin dominance to reduce, altcoins will really have to work so hard which I must tell you that I have even not seen anything that much that will make altcoins to have a higher dominance than bitcoin, because investor are very much interested in bitcoin right now than they are interested in altcoins. All the altcoins projects they have had is nothing to speak about.
4890  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin cannot be banned on: November 18, 2019, 04:02:16 PM
Bitcoin is decentralized and it can never be ceased.
However, government can apply strong negative force on it and ban it indirectly. They can regulate mining or other activities that are vital for Bitcoin and paralyzed the network easily.
The power that they have over the bitcoin is that they can regulate it but they can never ban it or even be able to control it because of its locked system. When we even talk of regulating it, they can only regulate it by manipulating it the way that china is doing so that people can get discouraged about it, and still at that, people can get discourage about using it as digital asset but can never get discouraged about using it as means of payment.

This is still the easiest means of making payment across the bother that I have ever seen and this is also one of the benefit that some countries that have adopted it have seen that is making them give full support and even if countries like china ban mining, there will still be some countries that will be opened to accepting.

Finals will be the hardest for Lakers, even harder than actually beating whoever comes from finals. Celtics are once again very good because they got rid of Kyrie Irving who was creating problems and got Kemba instead who is amazingly happy to be in a good team but no matter who comes from East I feel like unless there are injuries like last year the team that comes from west will win it all.

Clippers is still awesome but they are not playing "awesome" so far or at least not as well as they could, we haven't seen a 100% healthy clippers all year. Lakers versus Clippers with no injuries on both sides for 7 games in a row would be the most fun series we had in years. Hopefully, both teams could handle the load management and get their teams healthy into playoffs.

Congratz on the gamblers who won something from the race rewards, I hope you guys made some of the money back thanks to rewards or already ended up winning something in the first place from gambling. It is not easy to be in the top 10 and takes a lot of money and courage to be there so whoever ended up there, you guys manage to win something that many people wouldn't even have the courage to try to win let alone actually win.

For the sportsbook, it is disingenuous to say "we still have 12 days to go" because when you say November release nobody really expects November 30th, everyone expects either early on or at least on second week, even third week is a bit stretch but that is fine, nobody assumes it will be on the last week, if it is on the last week they should have put a disclaimer on "when" in November.
4893  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bull Run is coming! on: November 17, 2019, 08:44:54 PM
Do you think he accepts btc as payment? ROFL
Doctor should better not watch the value of bitcoin sometimes when it does bearish so that he will not put the cutter where he is not supposed to put it out of panic lol. Bitcoin is really gaining so much attention now, that even in my country, you could see children now talking of bitcoin now, while the funny thing is that some churches that are very dogmatic about their own religion are beginning to even see it as a sign of the Antichrist and they think that it is the one single currency that Is being spoken of in the bible.

That is not even my own concern now, the major point that I am trying to drive at is that very soon, we will start seeing the logo of bitcoin on our TV stations and even on every one of the news that we read on our newspaper too, it is getting to that stage already in my country.
4894  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Why Verge/XVG & Vechain/VET High 24 % On CMC on: November 17, 2019, 05:23:54 PM
Right, Now I'm seeing the 24 hours Graph of Coinmarketcap the Two potential Coin Verge/XVG & Vechain/VET Increase approx 24%. Any Good news for Both?
Well, I think that the good news is that altcoin season is gradually approaching because if you look at the market condition, you will see that some old coins are beginning to rise up in value which some of them are the coin I never imagine would rise again, so this is a very big sign for us that the altcoin season is fast approaching and we should start getting prepared for it.

These two coins that have started surging in value are one of the coins that I consider to be great coins that will give us up to 10x when the bull run for altcoins starts, especially this verge coin, because they have a real working project and they have a very good platform that ill attract new people, since new people will definitely out of fomo come to the market when the altcoins season starts.
4895  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: WILL YOU STILL INVEST IN CRYPTO ? on: November 17, 2019, 04:06:01 PM
The only luck that ICO still has left are bounty hunters, and they are still joking with them, because if not for hunters who are still promoting these projects believe me that no one would have still paid any interest at all to ICO which will make even the genuine projects to suffer also, but we still have some hunters that have not given up on ICO, and they are still advertising them which In the process of making the advertisement, lots of people that have not known about ICO challenges yet will rush into buying the tokens, which is why many people ask that amidst all these cryptocurrency tension, there are still many people that are investing in cryptocurrency every day and getting dupe.

Luck may run out on ICO if hunters too refuse to advertise them again.
I totally understand what you have written here, but still don't forget that we have many people that are not aware of cryptocurrency yet and until, they have made some investment before they start knowing or hearing about some of these scam projects. The percentage of cryptocurrency adopters is still very low compared to what it should be, and projects like Facebook and the rest are beginning to create awareness for cryptocurrency because of their intention to join the cryptocurrency sphere.

My old folks whom I have never for once told about cryptocurrency recently once approached mw that they are hearing that Facebook want to launch a coin that they would like to invest in, it was then I started explaining things to them about the whole cryptocurrency and even at that, they were still willing to take some risks.
4896  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin Whales Are Selling BTC Before Market Crash: Peter Schiff on: November 17, 2019, 02:17:16 PM
Every investor counts and holds its own role. The impact of those who buy or sell big amounts is indeed greater than those who play in points but still if a lot of small investors will sell out, it is going to leave same impression on market value of the coin as that done by a big whale. Moreover, it is not only whales or investors that are only factor. The market depends on government movements too

There is even a theory that there are no whales (only big holders who are not trading)

And thus there are no market manipulations either, so all price movements are only caused by changes in aggregate demand as well as supply. Personally, I'm not very much sold on this theory, but that's not my point here. The main problem with the current market is that even relatively small investors and traders can move the market on their own (i.e. not collectively). In this way, they are the new whales, with truly big whales hiding deep under the surface
Anyone that has large amount of money to move in and out of the market at the shortest possible time is to me termed as a whale whether they are individual or group of people, so whales actually do exist and they started too when the wall street entered the market, it was from there that the manipulation of this bitcoin started.

Also, it is not every time like you said we see all forms of dip and rise of bitcoin as manipulation, some are definitely caused by the activities of people which sometime depend on the way they place demand and supply for these coins. Sometimes, many of these people claiming that whale will be crashing the market is just because they are also looking for the best spot to buy at a very cheaper rate so they can only join the market manipulation by buying the coin at a very cheap rate after creating panic for some investors.
4897  Economy / Economics / Re: Inflating Crypto and Inflating Fiat on: November 17, 2019, 01:30:57 PM
Fiat currency have big chance to inflation than using bitcoin as currency payment, many people keep use cash money or fiat currency because only available payment right now, when they are trying with bitcoin and altcoin they will really know how bitcoin as currency payment can increase their money assets without have inflation.
Everyone is beginning to understand that fiat has been the real problem of inflation and not only inflation alone, the main payment system that has really made a lot of people not to have control and freedom over their own money, but as time passes by, they will learn to also start understand why they should use bitcoin, and how bitcoin can solve the inflation problem, both the government and individual users and even financial institutions.

For the asset aspect, I think that people understand this more than you can imagine and that is why you see those that already knows about bitcoin begin to hold bitcoin in their wallet with the believe that it could increase their holding, which I think that there is no balance yet between holding it as asset and using it as payment.
4898  Economy / Economics / Re: How many bitcoiners on here have actually used bitcoin/crypto for commerce? on: November 16, 2019, 05:03:03 PM
most if us have not used crypto for shopping and I am finding it difficult to find a reliable site to purchase goods as most of the sites which accepts crypto are either shady or Grey sites. But there are some e-commerce projects based on crypto which will give a push to crypto usage in terms of shopping.
Before we even come down to the issue of having a reliable site that are accepting cryptocurrency or bitcoin, I don’t think that I have even seen up to 10 companies that are accepting bitcoin out of the millions of companies that we have.

I understand that adoption rate is still very low, but even with the low rate of adoption, there are so many companies that are holding cryptocurrency here today for the purpose of bull run, and I think that it is high time that many people start introducing bitcoin into their own platform for payment and not just buying bitcoin alone and expecting that it will rise without adoption. What will create adoption more is when there are places where we can spend our cryptocurrency. It is only in the gambling section that I can say that they are trying.

--snip

This sounds like a really bad strategy to me,,, especially if you play a lot you know that the previous bet or bets has no effect on your next bet.

So in your strategy, it says if I lose at 99%, then my next bet means I can win at 10% chance? It will set you up for big losses very fast.

JP gambling is a strat too actually,,, and a lot of people try it;)
Usually I do not care what type of strategy you find, in the end there is a house edge and that equals to you losing all your money. You can gamble anyway you want, it is not going to work. The only good part of this website that doesn't really require any sort of strategy is the jackpot.

If you win the jackpot that means there is nothing else you need to do and I am very glad for it because you can just gamble with the basic minimum and do your casual martingale or whatever and in the end even if you lose too many times in a row you could actually get your money back from the jackpot, yes it is just luck and you may never get it but it drops the house edge to a lot lower when you are always gambling. I am sure someone will even make a bot for this website to chase the jackpots one day.
4900  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Addiction at its Worst! on: November 16, 2019, 02:22:43 PM
That's one of the most craziest thing that I've heard about gambling addiction. I meant it can be so dangerous to even let people kill themselves. Hopefully, I'm not addicted to gambling, I mean a few months ago I was gambling regularly, but I was at the point to get addicted to be honest, but I just controlled myself because it could be even worse later. Addicted people should start to stay away from gambling slowly and trying to quit this field as soon as possible. It's not even a good field to earn money, because it's all about luck.
I have seen worse scenario. Addicted gamblers in my opinion should be seen as mentally unstable patients and their actions can be frightening. Sometime back I heard the story of a man that killed himself, wife and kids because he lost a game and felt terrible,didn’t know how to stand the shame and loss and the best he felt he could do was to eradicate his total family, it’s that Bad.

If there is anything we can do to safe ourselves from becoming victims is for us to be careful on how much time we spend on gambling since by research any gambler has a tendency of falling into addiction as long as they spend a lot of time gambling. This is the reason I try to pick the days I play games. I have successfully trained myself that I do not visit a casino house more than 2 times in a week. Those suffering from addiction today never envisaged they would become that. Being careful is absolutely very important.
