501  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin Become Negative in Value? on: April 26, 2020, 04:57:36 PM
That’s the worst thing that can happen to bitcoin and we all know that any country can make such move to ban bitcoin, and create chaos to cryptoworld. If bitcoin becomes negative, then we are all stuck to the system of our government who always print money. Well, its good to have gold as well so when bitcoin dumps, you still have the gold.

I do not think it can become negative because it means that somebody will pay you if you own btc rather than we paying it currently to buy bitcoin. Also one of the case I think just if needs to happen would be only if a country makes it legal currency of their country and when people do not want to have btc then just in case govt may give money to people to have it and use.

$ 100,000 is too much in my opinion to predict at this time, it's true that the price of Bitcoin can go up after halving,
but remember you can get people exposed to FOMO and eventually people buy at high prices, and end up stuck for a long time

Everyone would be very happy with this if it happens or even if it reaches 50% of the said value all will be happy because there is definitely a certain trigger point after which it will fall the curve and we are not sure at this time. Like last time around 18- 19k it has started to fall, and we know how badly it has fallen from that though it will rise back again to those levels in coming time.

Covid 19 teaches us that we are all equal, no one is exempted when this virus hit a person. This only means that even how rich you are and virus hit you very bad you money cant do anything to heal you.

This is really true fact that irrespective whatever the status be, the religion, caste, creed, country etc all humans can get effected by it and one should always remain safeguarded against it in order to avoid Corona. Also many things will change after this virus the way we work from offices, way we do class room training, meetings, travelling for work to offices, business meeting internationally etc.

We are now seeing btc prices is started to pull back up now with each passing days. Compared to last week the movement is shifting up and what I think is that many big investors or even country may start investing in this crypto considering that stock markets will continue to bleed in coming time as well. Crypto may their investment which could give them positive returns even in this dropping GDP of the world.

So,...
-how's it going when it goes to your daily life?
-how's it going when it comes to your social life?
And lastly...
-how's it going when it comes to your gambling life?

All of this will be based only on what you have done in this past month of Quarantine. Although it is very common that we can't see any games in relation to sports, even so there are quite a number of shareable experiences that you might have done in this past month that you have never done in the past years.

So what do you think? Do it really had a big difference?

The quarantine made a really difficult time for us gamblers as we are far from what we used to - playing at casinos while socializing. Yet the lesson behind this all is that we must take an attention to online gambling and platforms in which has a good opportunity in times like this.

There are many learning during this lockdown including in gambling and it is that we can stay away or try to get our self in such a situation that we only gamble when we need to and say no when we do not need to. That much self-discipline if we can get it we will be sure not get addicted in future anytime. Also it gives us time to take break and explore something different which in our normal life we live a routine life. So a great chance to develops new skills too.
506  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Userfriendly Exchange in Cryto industry on: April 26, 2020, 06:01:59 AM
Livecoin is a scam exchange and oceanex is bad too, I think the most userfriendly exchange is still binance if you are using the app on your smartphones it's a easy as ABC, stay away from exchanges with lots of negative comments from users

One should generally be using exchanges which has some historically past and has being operating from some time and has good reviews from the users as well. Also speaking about binance this is one of the good exchanges as it has very good user interface and easy to use and understand as well. Also the trading fees is less and if used their coin for trading it become more less. Also it has some good security features as well.

507  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: April 26, 2020, 05:54:09 AM
After almost two months, watched a live cricket match today. Fancode mobile app did broadcast some matches from the Taipei T10 League. Don't ask me much about the quality, because you know the answer.  Grin But still I was really happy to watch some live action. And as expected, this so called "Taipei League" don't have a single Taiwanese player. All of them are expats.

This is something like finding a jewel in the coal. Anything at this point of time when there are no matches for coming time as well it seems and in between if we can find any of the match of any local team playing anywhere would also be of the highest regard as per me. Also can you share the link and hope the match was little interesting if not that exciting.


508  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What does success mean? on: April 25, 2020, 03:58:19 PM
If success is defined in the investment world, of course the large percentage of profit becomes a measure for the success of an investor or trader. In the crypto market, I think many people are successful and able to make big profits from both long-term and short-term investments

Success means different things to different people. If for me if I am able to achieve the goal in the set time frame, then I think that I am successful as I managed to do the things in aright way in order to achieve my goals. Things would differ for each person on the case basis.
509  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did gambling cause you to have difficulty in sleeping as a gambler? on: April 25, 2020, 03:48:23 PM
Based on my experience, i don't have difficulty in sleeping as a gambler because i can have a good sleep, even i experiences losses in gambling. I just don't sleep early because i always play gambling in the midnight or very late that i will only get myself into sleep in the morning, and i think it is really normal for gamblers to play late at night time.

For people who play for fun or to entrain themselves would be fine as they play to enjoy and would not be tensed even if they lose a bit of money. But for those who depends upon the gambling income only or just who make income from gambling would be worried if they lose money and may find difficult to sleep on the days when they lose money.

Next match to be on air on Retrolive on 24th April. I am sure unlike previous matches no one knows what happened in this match, you need to google it to find all about this match or watch it on 24th   Wink

This match is over now on Retrolive but if anyone missed the match or wanted to see it again, then you catch it at the below link.

THE COCA COLA CUP FINAL 1998 HIGHLIGHTS

I remember this match and also had seen this as one of the most famous matches in which India has played some magnificent cricket and match as well. It was all dominated by Australia and India during that time was not that strong team India came back strongly and Sachin lead it from front and played shorts all over the ground.

Nice tweet!

I am waiting for history to again repeat itself.

Chernobyl happened on 26 April 1986

USSR dissolution happened on 26 December 1991

It took just 5 years and  8 months.

Covid 19 outbreak happened in December of 2019 exact date I am not sure.. so if history repeats it would be 2024 and April should be the month.

Are you comparing USSR dissolution time to covid-19 ? That's ridiculous. Covid -19 will not follow any timeline nor it will follow the 4 years patterns of bitcoin halving & bull run  Cool 
Covid-19 will only disappear once a proper vaccine is made for it and no one knows how much time it will take for the vaccine to be developed in laboratories.

As soon as the vaccine out then we can do the counting for CCP. Most probably a vaccine should be out within 12 to 18 months.

I doubt it will take too long because all countries are trying it and should be there in next couple of months or may be before that also possible. There are quite a few trials already underway and if gets a good result the vaccine could be out soon as well. Only thing for now people should stay at homes in order to avoid spreading it further.
512  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: This guy gambles and wins a total amount of £400,000 and quits while ahead. on: April 25, 2020, 05:57:19 AM
I admire him for quitting gambling after winning a lot of money.

Some people will still continue gambling and spend all of those huge pots until their last paper. This should serve as a lesson for some people that are always being greedy. Now, due to his act, he can now build a business or make his own small casino house. It's rare for a gambler to quit after gaining a lot that will change his lives 'cause some thought of trying to bet again hoping for another pot.

One of the issues that a person become additive is the greed because more and more money they want to make it and their is no end to it. So people who are really strong or have the self discipline like this guy has it you quit the time you want to do it and only gamble when you want to have fun and not otherwise.
513  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your Gambling Life During Quarantine on: April 25, 2020, 05:52:00 AM
It kinda has. Before lockdown, I used to gamble only in the spare time. It was like a way to get out of routine. In the intital days of the quarantine, I gambled a lot and then I realized if I continued I would go bankrupt! Hence I locked my coins for weeks now Cheesy

Its being a opposite for me as I have tried to explore many other options and finding this lockdown to connect to people, explore more and more of my passions and learn and re-learn many things. Learn cooking and read books etc. This does not happen during the normal routine if life.

514  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: April 24, 2020, 05:24:27 PM
As you can see most of the users including me are saying that option no 3 is the best but if the ICC wants to implement rule no 2, this would mean they have some other intentions and they have a look at the bigger picture for the players interest too and also what is best for making more money. If IPL is rescheduled to some other months other than Mar/Apr 2021 it will not be good for the game.
Postponing the tournament by two years is not possible. If they do that, then the ICC may suffer a lot of financial damage. On average, ICC conducts one major tournament per year, and most of their revenues come from these tournaments. In the end, the annual contribution for various national boards may take a hit and the nations outside the big 3 will get impacted.
It all depends on the availability of the vaccine to cure this dreadful disease. Practically it is not possible to again reschedule the tournament again in next if the virus is still a five in 2021. I think they should wait and watch the situation. They cannot come into any conclusion within few months.

If the coronavirus epidemic will not subside quickly, most provably ICC will change their schedule, but till now they don't want to change the schedule. You know, most of the ICC-Money is earned through this tournament, so postponing the tournament means their financial loss. That's why ICC will wait until the last moment. If they could, they wouldn't change the schedule of the tournament. so, they will have to wait some more time to reach the conclusion.

This is well said and ICC will continue to monitor and see how much less adjustment they have to made it will eb the best for them. Mostly for them the pain would be for coming couple of months as tournaments schedule for this might get cancelled as specific country them self would not prefer to play during such times if things does not fully get under control. Only vaccines could solve now it seems.

515  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bloomberg report Bull run on: April 24, 2020, 05:21:18 PM
I also look to see the bull run. From indication so far, the cryptocurrency is doing good despite prediction of fall it has been more strong indication for bull. It has the possibility as covid-19 incident starts going down in Europe. Is time for buying more.


This is really a good news as more and more such affirmed news if comes in the market during this turmoil time many big investors will switch to crypto and will buy it results in higher demand and prices will start to pick up again. Hoping that people are buying before it becomes late for them and prices reach new levels.
516  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Has this period killed your desire or exited it on: April 24, 2020, 11:03:13 AM
I have been in lockdown for 30 days now. I am so much frustrated for not being able to watch any games and enjoy a single day.by going out with my friends and family.

In situation like this how can I enjoy gambling therefore I am not gambling at the moment.
Boredom will make you to gamble, and if you have gambling habit then you can't stop it in lockdown days but we can say everyone in this world is gambling so if you only get fun by watching the games then you are not a gambler, its more like a spectator.

Being in lockdown if someone looks from different angle there are so many things we have learn and become resilience to. Like we have got connected to all the old friends and families. We have been doing video calls and getting connected this day. So many online learning courses are available for all range of people who are ready to take knowledge. Also got time to spent with family and have time to take rest and give break to yourself. Those who want to gamble in free times can also do it now.
517  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Analyst: "Covid-19 Could Spur More States to Legalize Online Casino" on: April 24, 2020, 10:59:52 AM
Don't know about governments asking it's people to gamble but people would certainly be much more attracted to online gambling in such circumstances. There are no clear future and people have very less thing to keep them entertained. Both of which makes gambling less risky and preferable.

For countries where gambling is illegal would continue the same way and do not think could bring any change because then it would be like when online is legal so why not make it legal for casinos to operate as well. And for countries where it is legal and if online is not legal those can think of making it legal as it would generate revenue for the government at this point of time.

518  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: April 23, 2020, 11:07:52 AM
World test championship is messed up completely. Ideally ICC should move dates of WTC final to 2022 as few teams already cancelled their tours and they are not sure - how to distribute match points- yet.

ICC to distribute the points..... Oh no...Not again  Roll Eyes

India and Australia are clearly the top two teams in the World Test Championship and no other team can match them.
This is not right England can also do some good in this season if they able to hold series and New Zealand is also in good position still many things to come for this Test Championship and they will no distribute points as they can go 2022 for complete this all.

This needs to be looked and addressed as well. Also, they have played quite a few games and due to which they are on top as well. So I think whenever the ICC has to decide the final etc they need to ensure that each team has exactly played same number of matches and then only the comparison is done else one country plays  say 10 and other 15 so it would not be correct as per me. May be ICC needs to get it extended which looks a better option now.

It is possible specially that physical money are worthless right now due to crisis that the world is facing. But I guess maybe soon enough where the world regulate crypto.

Crypto is future and will have much more value than its present value. Buy not sure that anything can be so expensive which just does not add much rationale to me. Anything every person has their own perspective and one should identify where they see the value of a coin and how is the future shaped for it. If it looks good one should stay invested and keep buying at lows.

520  Economy / Speculation / Re: Should I sell bitcoin now? on: April 22, 2020, 09:17:35 AM
It is quite clear that the price will go low due to COVID and the need for some physical cash. I personally believe that after this crisis, bitcoin will rise as it should be.

If people require money, then they would have to sell the coins r other shares if invest din stick markets etc in order to survive. But if people have some extra liquidity then it is also a good time to invest in good crypto coins as whenever market recovers it is going be a upside in a short time. The rally could be very quick and only beneficial for those who stay invested in it and have some coins in with them.
