The bear market is bad as BAD it's self, it's only good for new investors that are just coming in to invest but turn out to be a nightmare for old investors (hodler)

Exactly, but I have already get over it, at first it bothers me but then I realized I don't lose in overall, I still in profit as I was able to sell last bull run, so holding more coins in my wallet although most of them is not as valuable as before is something I can take to hold for long.

Let's just relax and wait for the next run, that's what I do.

3 big dogs won today.. Anyone here who were able to make some money on the 3?

Wizards +13 - won against the Denver Nuggets by 14 points.

Memphis +10 - won against the Clippers by 26 points (this one is crazy)

Charlotte +11.5  - won against the Mavericks by 3 points in OT.
That's really frustrating for the bettors who entrust their handicap for this teams especially with Clippers that huge leads by Memphis kills the parlay of 1.16 odd ML for clippers.
Adding to this, Hawks also won against the Pacers not sure the handicapped but it's also a good win to anyone who bet for this team.

Most of us bets on the favorites, and yes it would really kill those parlays as we think with that high - by the favorite team, they could easily win the game, the problem is only to cover the high spread but it was the opposite of our expectation that happens.

Next time, let's try to parlay the underdog also, they give better return though chances are low, but things like this happens a lot.
5003  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling with Fiat or Crypto? on: December 31, 2019, 01:57:57 AM
After I learned Bitcoin, I started playing gambling. So I used this currency to play comfortably compared to Fiat money.
Well for me I already gambling even before bitcoin was created but I like to gamble more when I know bitcoin because its easier compared to fiat gambling.

I don't care what's going on with the Bitcoin price at least it's still worth. It's easier to use Bitcoin because making a deposit doesn't require a personal identity. As we know we have to provide a full name and bank account to deposit on gambling sites using fiat money. The most important thing for me is to remain anonymous.
For us who just withdraw and deposit constantly, the price of bitcoin or its volatility won't matter a lot.
It's just a tool that we use to bypass KYC requirements on fiat casinos and to have a fast and cheap transaction, overall I can say that crypto gambling is always better that fiat gambling.

I also believe that its' the new format of gambling and people will continue to adopt with it leaving fiat gambling obsolete in the future if they will not adopt with crypto.

Anyway a bad news everyone, Zach Randolph announced his retirement from the league

He will be remembered, I can't forget the contribution of Randolph with the Memphis Grizzlies.

He, gasol, conley, and Allen were one of the best team, they can beat the Clippers with Griffin and Paul but things really changed and we have to accept that. his defense and offense are outstanding, at least for me.. and he is unstoppable inside the paint.

I know not everyone would agree with OP's ranking, but that's his own ranking based on factors that he is the only one who knows.
We have our favorite gambling sites, they don't need to be in the top 1 in his listing as long as we enjoy using it and we trust the site we are risking our money to gamble.

TBH, I don't know that 777 has become a sportsbook also. why it was brought out here?

I never invested in bitcoin sv and bitcoin cash because these coins are created by scammers.

Long live  BTC and we shall fight against the scammers by not supporting what they are promoting.
We need to be smart as we owe to satoshi what we have become and where we are now.
5007  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: two gambling games that are players favorite on: December 22, 2019, 07:11:27 AM
I think majority would play dice because dice does not require a big amount of minimum bet, so everyone can afford it.
However, if you look at the big picture in the gambling industry, I think majority of the bettors are putting their money on sports betting.

Card games, dice, sports betting, and ect are all popular type of games in the crypto space but there's only one that is the biggest.

there is a research saying. "US $155.49 Bn for Sports Betting Market Size 2019 Growing at 8.83% CAGR Through 2024"

https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2019/07/26/1892289/0/en/Research-US-155-49-Bn-for-Sports-Betting-Market-Size-2019-Growing-at-8-83-CAGR-Through-2024.html


And that's from the US alone.
5008  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: STPT Listed on Coinone, Price Jumps 40% Within a few Hours on: December 18, 2019, 11:57:52 PM
Is this what you have called the price jump for STPT https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/stpt/
it is very sad to see the the price of STPT is going down 30% and that means if that give a short hype while bitcoin is jumping back again to the top as the bitcoin is being manipulated by the whale. it looks like coinone listing didn't affect the price of the STPT but that a few days has already passed.


There's literally a hype, people got caught by the hype and now they have to bear with that 30% loss in just 24 hours.
When the coin dump after it pump, it would be hard for it to pump again,  at least that is just my own observation, but still good luck for this coin, I hope they'll be able to recover so investors who got caught by FOMO won't complain and call it as a "SCAM".

coinone has 58 million usd trading volume but with over $1 million liquidity. (not good).
5009  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2019-2020 betting on: December 18, 2019, 11:39:10 PM
2nd game without Doncic and Dallas now playing against one of the top teams in the East.
They are underdog but only 2 points,  can they beat a good team again?

I need your opinion, but their 8-6 wl record makes me bet on the Celtics here.
Game will start 3 hours from now, so I still have plenty of time to read your comments if you are willing to share your opinion,.

My opinion is you bet on the Celtics, you are in the right side, just because Dallas won against Bucks that doesn't prove they can beat any team they want.
It's just one game and Celtics now are playing with a complete line up, so consider that also.

Dallas might again loss at home this time IMO.

5012  Local / Pamilihan / Re: Stock market: P127B lost after Duterte hits water firms on: December 13, 2019, 11:21:21 AM
The mod has all the right reasons to lock this thread since this is not at all related to cryptocurrency. But this could very well be discussed in the off-topic thread as this is indeed a pressing issue.

yeah I know that's why I express in my post that hopefully mod will not delete since I can't find the appropriate board for my post.

My thoughts on this.

[1] This is actually more of a local issue. This is an issue that directly affects the people within Metro Manila and some nearby towns and cities, not the entire archipelago. Sometimes, I ask myself why the news on our national televisions, radio stations, and newspapers are all about this issue when the rest of Philippines is not connected to it.

I beg to disagree, for water system it is for manila only but there's a bigger issue here which is the onerous contract.
This company is charging the government billions of money and with that, we are all involved as that money come from our taxes.


Quote
[2] The contracts of the two concessionaires involved were signed in 1997 and, because of the recent cancellation, will end on 2022. There is not much to improve here because they are close to their end. There were onerous provisions but these provisions have been in effect for more than 20 years already. What is the point of changing them today when it is only a few years time before the contract will expire?
They applied for extension I guess but that's not the thing here.
The Ayalas and Pangilinans were accused by Duterte of economic sabotage and they can't do this alone, so there will be more corrupt officials that will be expose here, with the investigation by the congress all the involved in this disadvantageous contract should answer to the government accordingly and they need to be in jail if proven committed a criminal offense against the government.


Quote
[3] The two concessionaires already waived their billions of pesos in claims against the government. The extension has been canceled. What is only left unattended perhaps is the accountability of the people involved. But if the congressional hearings are all about finger-pointing, they better be kept out of the national news.
The are establishing facts, the investigation has just recently started, we have to be patient and hope that they will come up with facts on who should be held accountable for this big criminal offense.
Quote
[4] This is actually just another game among and between the few elites and the powerful. The victims, the ordinary people within the limited areas affected, are actually left out in the picture.
We know how the oligarch play, they use their money and their influence but we should be thankful we have a president who are brave to expose their anomalous contract.
5013  Local / Pamilihan / Stock market: P127B lost after Duterte hits water firms on: December 13, 2019, 06:49:46 AM
I know most of us are aware about the biggest issue in our country which is the  Manila Water Co. and Maynilad Water Services Inc. onerous contract between the government. As president Duterte is threatening these two companies for economic sabotage on the said unjust contract, this results to panic selling of the investors of the said companies.

This is a big issue of the Philippines now and I think it's just right to bring it here and let's discuss about it.
It should be People of the Philippines against these two water Concessionaires.

KABAYAN, what's your take on the latest issue?

PS. I hope mods will not delete this as it's a very important issue that involves every Filipino.
5014  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2019-2020 betting on: December 11, 2019, 08:37:30 AM
Congrats on the winners...Easy win for Blazers right?
IIRC, the odd was like x10 for Blazers to win 26+ in this particular game.

Lillard was shooting 8-12 in the 3 point territory, this helps a lot for the Blazers to have an easy win.
5015  Economy / Services / Re: [GET PAID $50) For Renting Your Facebook For 15 Days! on: December 09, 2019, 02:47:04 AM
OP should lock the thread if he already found someone who can do the job but actually it's not advisable to risk your facebook personal information for this small amount only, we don't know what the risk lies ahead on making this job done.
5016  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: December 09, 2019, 02:25:13 AM
Wow! the game between the Mavericks vs the Kings was one of the most entertaining I watch today.

I like the mavericks to win but they got dominated early but they never give up and they made a big rally in the 4th quarter, I thought they'll win but they fall short, but still that's the kind of effort I like to see to a team, they never give up, they should bring that kind of mentality as they needed that in the playoffs once they are lucky to get it.
5017  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2019-2020 betting on: December 03, 2019, 05:36:56 AM


But here we are again, moving on to another game and another opportunity.

My pick - PACERS -6.5


Winner for today, 117-14, pacers win and covered. win/loss/win/loss.. I am afraid I will loss my bet tomorrow, but hopefully now.

Lakers vs Denver, like this match up.. I will update my post soon.

Looking forward for you pick, I am afraid the pattern will not be followed, I think you will have a "W" tomorrow. Grin

5019  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Gervonta Davis vs Yuriorkis Gamboa on: November 30, 2019, 11:38:15 PM
Has not heard of Gamboa for a long time or maybe I just don't see him fight again.
Checked on his record, https://boxrec.com/en/proboxer/391770, he has won his fight against Roman Martinez and that happened this year.

I think I will be able to watch this game, thanks for bringing this event to bitcointalk, I am guessing, the last time Gamboa fought we don't have this kind of thread, right?

5020  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Tete vs Casimero on Nov 30 on: November 30, 2019, 11:07:13 PM
Yeah, congrats to everyone who ride on Casimero. I guess everyone is right about their prediction of the fight  Grin. I will keep this thread for at least 24 hours and let others give their thoughts and for sure many of us Filipinos are very happy with the result here. Congrats to Johnriel Casimero!!!

Thanks mate, I know there are still a lot of winners here who are still asleep, expect when they wake up, they will share their winning bets here, lol..
I am still for my bet to be graded... and man, I should have won x26 if I bet on round 3 knock out.  Grin Grin

My bet in Sportsbet has not been settled yet  Smiley, that's why i think the fight has not started yet lol.

same here, I'm excited to withdraw to treat my family today. haha
