501  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin class with my students. on: February 19, 2023, 06:44:41 PM
I agree with your idea that they should learn the basic economic too since this will help them to understand why Bitcoin price moves a lot.
But I feel like that what can we expect on high school students? I think it's normal for them to not know Bitcoin because they are busy with their lifestyle. You know, going to school, doing homeworks. If they have some time left, they will probably use it to entertain themselves by playing video games or browsing social media sites. They aren't like to us adults who are now looking forward on ways to improve our life and that is we came across Bitcoin.

Still, OP is doing a good job there and it's great that most of them are interested about it. For now maybe they should try to save Bitcoin or make it as an investment because this is more on a passive side and it's also easy to do than any other Bitcoin activities.

Really sad to see that the cryptocurrency market fell from 2.8 trillion to only 760 billion!!! This is a really big drop!! But it is within acceptable limits so far and is continuously recovering.

This market has experienced many mishaps that led to its market value dropping in such a way, but we are still in the beginning, this market is only a little more than ten years old, so if we look at the matter from this angle, we will see that what we have achieved during this period is something important.

With the continued inflation in fiat, it will not be difficult for bitcoin to reach a million dollars, but the purchasing power at that time will be parallel to the price of bitcoin at 70-100k$ at most. This is why many people have come to view bitcoin like gold as a safe haven against inflation.
It's indeed a big drop and it wasn't acceptable but what can we do? The worse has already happened but instead of focusing too much on the negatives, why can we just focus on the positive instead? It was still not the end because as we can see it is still recovering.

A drop in market cap means a drop in the price and this means people can invest more. We are not in the beginning anymore because like I said earlier, we are now recovering but if you mean the age of the market then it wasn't really new. Bitcoin the first crypto started in 2009. If fiat continues to inflate then I think it will affect BTC in a negative way because it's now difficult for them to invest here.
503  Economy / Gambling / Re: What sort of Weekly & Monthly Bonuses do Bitcointalk members want? on: February 18, 2023, 07:19:50 PM
When it comes to something on getting back even on small amounts then people would really be seeing this as a good feature on which it would really boosted up some emotions on playing on a certain site
because they do know that they would really be getting something back even if they do lose.It might not be big but at least people would really be able to get some peanuts and its better
rather than having nothing at all.

I agree on what most people been saying on here that bonuses arent really that much interesting due to those wagering requirement but this had been a default part thing when you do gamble
out on which each platforms do really have this kind of promotion and marketing ways on hooking up people to play.
I agree that people always love freebies and it really doesn't matter how big it would be. Because when a gambler is getting into frustrating moment and you are finding some free money to continue your gambling then definitely that will be somehow consoling you against your frustration. This is the reason famous casinos are always providing time to time bonus to keep their regular gamblers to board always.

If the wagering conditions and requirements are practical and achievable then I believe there will be no concern about availing bonuses from any gambler. Unfortunately most casino are keeping the wagering requirements dramatic which is the reason people are simply skipping it.
504  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do You trust Tether (USDT) Stablecoin? on: February 17, 2023, 09:09:45 PM
I'm in crypo world since 2021 only and since then I've noticed a lot of folks talking about Tether as being a potentional scam that may crash the markets one day and I've watched videos from crypto detectives/scam busters such as Coffeezilla and he makes some pretty fair points about Tether being the cryptos biggest scam.

I wanna personally know from people who have been in crypto for little longer than I have and maybe know a few things more or could share their personal view on Tether.

My side question to this would also be: Which type of stablecoin do You find the most credible in the Crypto space?

Thanks in advance for more experienced folks for sharing their insight!
This has been asked so many times and for a millionth time I have to say no. Why do people want to trust these stablecoins? What is the purpose of "trusting them? I understand that you want to move your money to fiat and not be in crypto for a while, but why not do it with fiat directly and prefer to go with stablecoins?

I get that there are some pairs and futures and all that which you can't do with fiat, but just don't do them as a solution? I have my money in either fiat or in crypto and that's it, no stablecoins what's so ever. Never trust stablecoins, you never need to, let them keep proving they are trustworthy over and over again and yet still don't trust them, because why would you ever need to?
505  Economy / Economics / Re: BTC Silver and Gold on: February 17, 2023, 08:29:19 PM
I am curious. How many of you also stack gold and silver in addition to BTC as a hedge for inflation?
We are in bitcointalk, not goldtalk, not silvertalk, not even preciousmetalstalk, we are in bitcointalk. This is why it is normal for people here to say that they are a lot more interested in bitcoin than other things, doesn't matter if it is stocks, gold, silver, ruby, oil, futures, whatever it is, we will prefer bitcoin over any of the others because this is the place for bitcoin and will stay like that.

I think it is quite important that we focus on how we could make money from bitcoin, the thing we know and love, over any other because that would be a whole new ball game and we would need to learn a lot of new things to move from here to there, which is why learning more about bitcoin is easier.

staking since almost 2 years and my total amount has not changed that much. I earned most of my tokens with the bounty campaign and wagered more in the beginning; right now I have about 4400 tokens. Give me some time and I should be able to pull up some data!
Here we go. If you don't mind i would love to get some stats. You don't need to reveal what you own and i wouldn't advice that, just divide or multiply both hodled bfg amount and rewards with a number of your choice and don't let us know what the number is. As long as the ratio is same it doesn't matter.
I think that is the whole point, even if it is trolling and saying "bfg is a better investment than bitcoin" may sound silly, there is a mathematical truth that it hasn't gone down as much as bitcoin did, did it? If that case stands then we have to say that it is not going to be that much of a big problem and we should be quite happy about the fact that we get to invest into something that hasn't gone down that much.

Of course this is not true if you bought at release because release day drop was very sharp, I think you need to take it like just pure 2022 year and all that, which would give bfg a bit more chance to actually look a bit better than others.
507  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Be careful Many New Tokens on Coinmarketcap are on: February 17, 2023, 07:14:31 PM
I noticed that Recently CoinMarketCap website has been adding new Tokens without verifying the Token team,goals, and if it's legit.
Most of these currencies collapse during the first weeks of its launch.
i Remember that the website used to check every Token before publishing it to the public.
Has anyone noticed that as well?
I think this is not a new issue anymore. Not all coins that they list do always gets successful but tons of them have failed easily. It's only sad to know that a well-known platform like them are only prioritizing the money more than anything else or the safety of the public. This is why many of us don't rely on them anymore when it comes to crypto information or tools but we only use coingeko.

Right now, coingecko is known when it comes to finding gem tokens. We need to have a new leader in the market and we shouldn't let binance monopolize because they owned CMC. I think even binance right now isn't also great when it comes to coin listing.
508  Economy / Speculation / Re: How was your belief formed? on: February 16, 2023, 05:54:42 PM
While it's still a long way from the $69K price Bitcoin once reached, the price rally is now also very good and is even closer to $25K again. Hopefully this good thing can continue past $69K so another ATH can build up very neatly in Bitcoin. Personally, I am also very optimistic that the increase in the price of Bitcoin will continue well this year and everyone will be happy when they see another increase in the price in these two days.
I have faith like you too friend. The best decision I ever made in my life was investing in the crypto market in the last few months. I Trust you guys, it really pays off a lot for the next few years.
We won't be here if we don't have a faith in Bitcoin. If we don't lose our faith when BTC is dumping hard last year then how much now when what we are witnessing are mostly increases and recoveries? I think many people now are more encouraged to buy and HODL than to sell compared to when we are on the bear market where most people are selling at a loss and then scared to buy more coins.

Each of us has a different belief in Bitcoin when we first start and not all are positive but there are also negative or also called as disbelief. We are still thankful that the disbelief that we feel are once again replaced by a belief after knowing more about Bitcoins.
509  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Betting strategy question on: February 16, 2023, 04:58:02 PM
We can agree that there's no winning strategy for any games with a mathematical edge not being on your side (negative EV).
But if you still want to gamble on such, then martingale is just as good, or just as bad as any other betting style. You're just betting on not having a losing streak exceeding your bankroll.
^Definitely right that is the fact that there is no strategy in any games and I agree that martingale is one of the best options that you will quickly get your profit and your capital by folding the amount of your loss to place a bet. It is terrible if you don't have enough funds to sustain and cover losses because this strategy needs a very huge funds. It is impossible if you don't win after how many loss streaks you have and then quit when you have your profit or even win at once, that you surely recovered your losses and already have gained.
Some games doesn't need a strategy but some has it although it will still depend on the player. If they don't want any gimmicks and they want to play the game straight to the point then just go on. Like the majority said, martingale is not a good strategy. If there is one quick thing that you can get at it, then that is only losses and not a profit because you are going to double your bets each time you lose your bet.

Even if you have a huge funds, you will still lose in the long run. The only way for the martingale to work is when you have an unlimited amount of funds but what is the point of playing a gambling if you already have that? Even if you do, casino will still set a limit to counter it.

What is this thread, a 31-page monologue about Ronaldo?  Cheesy
I think the same - only people are talking about Ronaldo and nothing else.
However I read a news where it is stated that Saudi Arabia will be hosting Club Football world cup.. I think their ultimate plan will come to reality soon.
No doubt peoples are talking about Ronaldo because Saudis invested big amount just because of this talk around the world as recently they are opening their way for the exposure and having results like Dubai and Qatar which is just because if they have things like these even it's never been easy but now after investing funds like these surely they are on track for this now they are having launch their campaign for the hosting soccer world cup 2030 as co-host other countries are Egypt and Greece which is surely big, but things are still under development because we are going to have big changes in the Middle East with this all peoples are looking for peace and better environment after long conflicts in this region.

Ronaldo is surely the person who is leading from the front after having one of the biggest contract in soccer history, hopefully someone will join him in near future as well for better and fast changes.
511  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Tip and Tricks about when to buy or when to sell? on: February 15, 2023, 12:21:50 PM
Hello,
I know that trading requires knowledge, but any tricks for newbies about when to buy or sell? For example, looking at the volume, looking at the queue for buying and selling and etc.
Sorry if my question is not a good question.
There is no such thing as a bad question so don't hesitate to ask here. I am also not an experienced day-trader or something like that so for me it is also pretty hard to tell when the perfect time is to invest into a project, but i would also guess that no one really knows the perfect time for that. All we can do is guess. There are a few indicators though, that can give you at least an indication where the price of a project might go soon. You can look at the order book for example when you are using centralized exchanges like Binance, Kucoin and so on. If the buy side is way bigger than the sell side, then it is very likely that the sell resistance will be broken soon and that the price will rise.
Of course there is a bad question but that isn't the one that has been asked by the OP. Experienced or not, we all have a difficulty when deciding to sell and buy but there is a general rule that everyone is following and that is to buy low and sell high. This is easy to do and this doesn't require a good knowledge but a simple common sense can be enough already.

You said you are not an experienced trader but I see that you gave a pro tip there. This and the other tips that users gave on this thread are surely going to be useful for the OP. Not sure if this is already given but another tip that I know is to buy the rumours and sell the news. It's name says it all, on how to initiate it but the OP can research further about it.
512  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🟡 SLM.Games | Deposits&Withdrawals On-Chain ⛓ | Daily Promocodes 💰 on: February 15, 2023, 11:35:10 AM
Indeed, you are correct. The NFTs can be traded in our built-in market. https://slm.games/market
Typically, the NFTs in the market are self-listed by the players, and there is no significant risk involved for us.
In SLM marketplace, lot of NFTs are for sale and there are so many payment methods: BTC, ETH, SML, EOS, USDT, USDC, BNB. Impressive.
Not many gambling site has an NFT involvement even up to this point where NFT's aren't a new thing anymore so it's great to see a number of them arising. This a cool way to use NFT than merely for collecting and displaying purposes only. At least they have found a utility now and maybe many people won't bash them heavily anymore. This was also my first time to hear that a VIP membership can be transferred to the other player.

I think that was a pretty cool feature as well. Useful if one is going to retire from gambling and he don't want his account go to waste. Usually, VIP can be earned when one wagers so yes they should check the users history of gambling if he is active before the VIP membership will be awarded.
513  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: February 14, 2023, 08:22:51 PM
@pakhittheboss I doubt that this would be allowed for any Pakistan cricketer as BCCI would have rejected this, due to the political tensions between these two countries.
BCCI did allow Azhar Mahmood till 2015. I read it in the article itself. Quoting it below.
Quote
Pakistan's total absence from the WPL aligns with their male counterparts' absence from the IPL. Aside from the inaugural season in 2008, which took place during a brief political detente between India and Pakistan, no player representing Pakistan has taken part in the IPL. Azhar Mahmood played in 2012, 2013 and 2015, but by then he held a UK passport, and had registered himself for the league as a British citizen.
Azhar Mahmood was the quality all-rounder, and then he has done rightly job for having English Passport which is also not easy but for me right now no Pakistani Woman will be having quality for having luxury like this and hopefully as right now PSL is doing good job we will have WPSL as well even this could not good like WPL but still a good start for them with hopefully few foreigners will also join this all process because after watching first match of ICC Women's T20 World Cup match between India vs Pakistan I can say they are increasing quality and performance level which is good sign and things can take big break through for them in this game as well because now many countries are taking good decisions for having better things for the women's and here change is also possible.
514  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Want to invest on: February 14, 2023, 05:45:22 PM
Since you are willing to invest I think you should invest in bitcoins. You are not sure that the tokens you are talking about will increase in price in the future. If you hold these tokens, you are likely to face big losses in the future. So I suggest you to invest in bitcoin invest in bitcoin then you will be able to earn good in future.
you are very right, friend, bitcoin is a very promising investment for the holder, although it must be admitted that investment in bitcoin must be patient and this is a safe and long-term investment, although some are able to do it in the short term, but those who do short term have already know and get used to it.
but do not rule out the possibility to also invest in altcoins, because there are many who also have potential and what is certain is ethereum, BNB or can search and analyze at CMC, because there are quite a lot of choices available.
So many projects who claims to be that they are promising but they are only good at this part. They can't take real actions to prove it. This is how Bitcoin differs from them. We already see how Bitcoin move through the years. Started from a mere currency and eventually from becoming an asset which has a short and long term potential.

With that said, if one is impatient enough they can always go for short term investing or do Bitcoin trading until they develop a solid patience and that must be the time for them to do long term investing. They say that putting eggs in one basket is too risky, this is why we have altcoins on the side where we can be able to diversify our funds. Binance coin or ethereum can always come first when we are talking about altcoins. They are like the equivalent of BTC.
515  Economy / Gambling / Re: Bitnity.com - a community-driven gambling platform on: February 13, 2023, 07:41:43 PM
Ok I have two casino-based tokens in my portfolio and I'm looking at the potential of your token, there are many cons and pros to holding casino-based tokens, but as always I love its staking features, one of the things that will make me add this token to my portfolio is the community support and how they present their platform in the gambling community.
So I would like to advise hiring a good thread designer and if possible launching a marketing campaign, I hope you can keep up with 70% of your monthly profit to stalkers.
Not sure if you already saw the issue about staking. It is said that SEC is after it. I think for our safety it will be better to avoid them for a while until the issue subsided or have been cleared out that staking is allowed again. The are still other community-driven casinos out there which you can invest in their bankroll but has no staking features. Casinos like bitvest and cryptogames for example.

It is said that the casino is still in testing phase so I don't think they will do a marketing campaign now but maybe soon once testing has been completed. It would be better if they can also add more games because dice is now pretty common these days. Dice games are only good if they are one of the early crypto casino.

Win 3:1 against Waalwijk wasn't that easy as it looks in final score. They let opponents to score first and only took a lead in final 15 minutes game. I still wouldn't make conclusions about Heitinga, as they haven't faced strong opponents yet. Yeah, they won against Twente in cup, but cup games isn't best indicator. Let's see how they will look in Europa league playoffs against Union.
Ajax won the game with a strong finish, and it was deserved, Ajax had 74% possession but possession alone does not decide a game.

The TOP5 won all their games, Ajax got back on track after many draws and unlike the others won the last 3 games and are now back in the title race. Feyenoord has a very difficult match against AZ in the next round, the current table.

After 21 rounds now we have interesting change of momentum in Eredivisie as top four teams having just 4 points difference which is interesting now in 22nd round we will have good change at top with Feyenoord is going to AZ Alkmaar which is going to be helpful for the third and fourth spotted teams Ajax and PSV because in case of lost AZ Alkmaar will be at fourth and in case of draw still they will have chance for the having drop of their spot which is entertaining because we will have top teams at top spots and things could be interesting for the end of this season which will have three same quality teams at top with level in performance will fight for the title race, but AZ Alkmaar still have chance to stay in hunt behind them and take their chance for the title or higher rank as well.

after winning yesterday I tried to spin again with a budget of $20 at Moon Princess. but unfortunately maybe I'm just unlucky not to get a good multiplier without getting a trinity. maybe the Moon Princess is tired  Cheesy

everything you say, I will definitely try it, Tome Of Madness is a game from Play N Go that I must try. although I have never tried before, but I have a hunch that I will get a good multiplier in Tome Of Madness. I hope my hunch brings good luck  Grin

for Troll Hunter and Golden Ticket I'm a bit less interested. because usually before betting using real money I try to use fake money first to try and it seems that in both games it is difficult to get a good multiplier. but maybe if this later I get a good multiplier from Tome Of Madness, I'll still try Troll Hunter and Golden Ticket. pray for me mate  Wink

anyway, thanks you @lionheart78 @famososMuertos
As for me I never play with fake money first because I am afraid that I will get a good win and then when I play on the real thing I will never win anymore or I will only get a small win. That's an easy way for me to get disappointed but results for the both of them are not always the same, so if you think you are unlucky on the demo mode, you still have a chance to get lucky on the real game. It's also normal that good multipliers are hard to get because this is how the casino is designed. They ensure that they will mostly win and not the players.
518  Economy / Gambling / Re: Freebitco.in - FUN Token Investment Experiment on: February 12, 2023, 08:23:59 PM
Free spins don't have expiration. In my case, I used to keep my free spins because i'm lazy to play it everyday so I decided to just let it there. I have 3k plus FUN (originally it's only 2500 when I bought my tokens but I gained interest for locking it few times both short and the maximum period).

I can't remember the last time I use my free spins, then last week I play it all, a total of 1300 plus spins. I think it's been a year or more since the last time I play it and it took me few hours to claim it all. After claiming I already sell my FUN to use to gamble but unfortunately it didn't turned out well. Obviously it's not a good decision so i'm planning to buy again while the price is still cheap.
Maybe you are a busy person? But for someone who is not in a hurry and they are also bored, they will like to play their spins slowly. Not only per day but they will also spin it one by one. There must be a different kind of thrill of doing it and I think I can get a better prize this way than if I spin them all together.

If your last claim is last year then I can't imagine the amount of free spins you are having now. That must be huge? And you see, it takes time for you to collect them all but if I were you, I will just sit my fun tokens there to earn passive returns and exciting rewards than gambling them because you can surely lose them quickly.

Ronaldo has nothing to prove again, he's a player that can deliver and play in any team and still shine. People thought that he has finished but is see Ronaldo playing one more season in Europe after his contract in Asia. Ronaldo is exceptional he speed and shot accuracy still the same, what a player, I'm sure he will be top scorer of the league.
Ronaldo is indeed a strong player. he played well in all competitions and any club. but to compete with the others from mid-season. it will be quite difficult for Ronaldo to score goals. now he scored 5 goals for Al Nassr. and the top scorer is currently still held by his teammate at Al Nassr. maybe he can compete next season with a good start and also the backing of a decent team. now the focus should be on helping Al Nassr to get the trophy.
There is no doubt about Cristiano Ronaldo quality and strength he was facing some issues just because of change of conditions and league as well but now after few matches things are going to be normal, and he is started to give his best with 5 goals and at the top of league Talisca is having 13 goals we have 14 matches left in this season mean still Ronald having chance to compete with his teammate for the top scorer because now as he has done four goals in one match just need one or two matches like this and all things going to his favour with chance to stay at the top as well with now most chances Al Nassr is going to win the title as well which is surely good stuff for the both parties in first season after having collaboration.
520  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Learn from a brother's mistake on: February 11, 2023, 05:00:50 PM
It was a painful experience for your brother, I think that he had this experience early, and I think he will not repeat this mistake, which will be positive in the future. In a way, it might even be better to learn whether to trust altcoins that much or not to invest in this way, it is necessary to look at the full side.
It is a big mistake and regrets but I think, this will help his brother to open his eyes and don't be easy with the market.
Perhaps, investing in new projects without working products is too risky, we are just lucky if they will succeed because most of them had failed and gone carrying the money of their investors.

This is to imply the importance of having research and deep knowledge of the project before investing as this will give us an idea if this is worth investing or a possible scam.
If it was his first then there are still chances that he can repeat the same mistakes again even though the mistake that he get recently is not small but he should try to avoid it as much as possible or use only a small amount this time so that the impact will only get lesser in case he failed again. Projects without a utility never succeeds.

The pump that they can possibly get is only artificial and it was created to manipulate investors, so never mistaken it as a success when it will just disappear later on. Many people are afraid to do a research because they are a newbie but they end up relying on someone else and they can fall on the wrong people or place but If only they seek advice here in the forum then it would have been better.
