521  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Crypto Market on the Rise, But Proceed with Caution! on: November 30, 2023, 11:19:50 AM
Everyone who invests in cryptocurrency does so with caution and most of the time people experience volatility, yet they don't get emotional. If the investment was emotional, then it might never have made a profit, so everyone waits for a certain period of time. And you never know by investing when the Bitcoin market will go down and when it can go up so you have to think about this decision. When you invest knowingly, you will have a confidence and plan to profit from it. But if you buy the currency when the market price is rising then it may be your mistake, but if you buy when the price is low then you have an initiative to buy at the right time. However, investing in the market need never be so volatile but invest carefully for long term, it will always give you confidence in investing.
Whether you do like it or not, as long on the time that you had considered yourself on stepping your foot into this market then it would really be that inevitably for you not to realize or learn up on how this market behaves.
Market could neither go down or up, this is why it would really be always recommended that you should really know on when to exit and when to enter and this is where technical analysis would really be that relevant.
You wont really be able to survive if you wont really be that making yourself wise when it comes to decision making on which this is something that you could really be able to learn up along the way.
Proceed always with caution specially on to those times where hypes and fuds do happen in the market on which this is usually traders or investors do mess up their portfolio.

You should be wise, you should be that patient, you should be attentive and you should really be not that emotional. You would really be finding yourself at great trouble
if you cant really be able to control yourself.
522  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sometimes betting is just ridiculous. Sometimes it is complete nonsense. on: November 29, 2023, 09:59:32 PM
This is not the first time bookies have provided a place for betting on war, as far as I know on the Ukrainian and Russian wars there were several bookies that provided bets on who would win or how many casualties would fall on either side. This is disgusting, how could someone have the heart to post a bet like this. What if this happened to them? Don't they have a little heart to grieve? or at least just ignore it if they don't think it's important.
I think the bookies should take action against this, because it's disgusting how these fools bet on something that really shouldn't be bet on.
If this isn't the first time bookies have provided slots to bet on wars, then I think this world entirely is the most atrocious place to live in... honestly. How could several sportmakers use
Its fake, so theres no point on telling or making out discussions about this. There would be no bookmakers would really be including this one out and just like the rest been saying that its never been that ethical.
Checking out previous replies as if they do really think that this one is really that real, no legit bookies will really be that making this kind of betting and it would never be.
If this one turns out to be that real then i dont see for it to be that ethical on betting on it, you are making bets on someones lives? Its never been that good in feeling.

First of, hope you do actually realize that the image was just Photoshoped and not actually real. And yeah it would be the most ridiculous thing of bookies and casinos were to make available options for player to bet on war, lol, I have never heard of anything like this and it sound kinda funny that someone's mind could even conceive such an idea. Indeed people are full of surprises lol
Totally funny and it doesnt really make any sense and in the first place, for sure lots of people had checked out and and thought that it was actually for real. Cheesy
523  Economy / Speculation / Re: What did you think will happen to Bitcoin before January? on: November 29, 2023, 08:57:36 PM
No one can accurately predict how the price of Bitcoin will move before January 2024. Currently, the bitcoin market is in a good trend where the price of bitcoin has experienced a significant increase to reach $37k. However, anything could happen at the end of this year, it could be that the price of bitcoin will be corrected again before experiencing a significant increase. Therefore, let's see how far the price of bitcoin will move at the end of this year until the beginning of next year.
Though I totally understand that the market is highly volatile and it doesn't necessarily have to move in the same way as it did in the past, I'm still pretty optimistic for an uptrend in the first couple of months of 2024 because the same happened this year and since we are in the pre-bull-run phase right now, I would expect that to happen again since after a few months in the new year, we will have the halving event which is considered to be the bull run initiator though it doesn't have to be that way all the time.

So, I'm not expecting any big corrections in December, even if it does correct itself, it won't go any lower than the $34k - $33k range and will start recovering again once we hit the new year and hopefully, by the time of the halving event, the price will be around $45k or roughly $50k, in my opinion.
The halving event is the catalyst and the beginning of a new bull season, but don't forget one thing. Historically, an uptrend will appear some time after the halving event ends, usually 6 months or 1 year. So, we should not be too optimistic that there will be no more bearishness and bitcoin will only rise and rise from now on.

I don't know why the OP is questioning the bitcoin price before January, but I believe that the bitcoin price will still decline and correct before and after the halving. We won't be entering bull season anytime soon without another correction.
Better to focus on trying out to predict on what would happen after the halving event rather than on stressing ourselves thinking before the halving. Its true that this one would be the catalyst of everything on which you did really get a point and this is the most nearest thing on which we could really be able to observed on. Somewhat its not really that bad to make some spot on in regards on potential price entries or the moment you do
make out position with the current prices. For example, we are making investment on 38k  level, then it would be so impossible that you wont really be thikning for possible dip or correction?
In every step you would make, there would really be that a specific hesitance and worry because of volatile and unpredictable prices.

In speaking about prices in January, then there's no way that we could be able to know or on whats ahead. This is why there's lots of speculations and guesses around
about the upcoming price specially on year 2024 where everything would really be looking interesting for that next year. Lets see on what would happen and it would be
wise that you should really be making your position before its too late.
524  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Inoue vs Tapales for Unified Super Bantamweight Title - December 26 on: November 29, 2023, 08:16:49 PM
I don't care about this promotional video, so it's no big deal what's in it.

What matters is that this fight will happen as scheduled. In reality, this fight doesn't need much effort to market because people will certainly watch it. More marketing might be necessary if the fight were held in neutral territory, but given that it's in Japan where Inoue is currently the best boxer, this isn't needed. People will watch and support him regardless.

And that's why promotional videos are made, because there is already a scheduled fight. If there is no promotion or marketing of this fight, we will not known about it. However, since this is going to happen again in Inoue's backyard, definitely, it won't get any from the US soil specially that he is fighting a non-US fighter.

Only hard core boxing fans are going to watch it from the States. And so it's really betting for Inoue to get out of his comfort zone and go to US as we have been saying.

So promotions are needed even if the fight is going to be in Japan just saying, boxing fans are everyone involved knows that it's needed.

And that's why there are fight that have storyline and hype to make money and let the fans knows that.
Despite of staying on Japan as his battleground and doesnt have the plans on touching up US soil then when it comes to fight revenue then expect that it would be less but since this fight isnt something that could be ignored then people would really be definitely be watching it specially into those local people on which it would really be that normal that they would be showing that support. Doesnt matter if he wont really be
trying to right into other places or country as long he's building up his career records then this is something that they would really be focusing but if they are really having plans when it comes to more
revenue or money making in each fight then it would be best that he should really be going out.

Inoue is already making a name for himself specially on boxing world. Trying out to unify the belt as of this moment with this current weigh division. POpularity would increase if he
would be doing that again on beating up Tapales but lets not remove into our minds about those probabilities considering that Tapales is also a champion so
underestimating him would really be not idea.
525  Economy / Economics / Re: Luxury and spending lifestyle fastest way to poverty rich kids on: November 29, 2023, 07:35:06 PM
If you want to be rich sell to rich kids.
Now let's talk about homeless people in USA and CANADA.
The world don't know that many of those homeless people are from the rich families.
And If they been spending years no stop then even they will get a lot money they still can lose it fast.
Once the old pals will die like joe Biden who's hard working and tough guy then their kids will go broke.
Canada and USA have the same problem and Im not just talking i know personally those kids who use to have money but now they are dead homeless or drug atticts.
This is the reason why USA and Canada native race become smaller and hard working indviduals taking over the country while native people falling.
You looking from TV and see that homeless people you think they born poor but it's not case i've met with many who use to drink and Party in Europe bahamas like 100-300k easy in one year and now they are broke.
Once the guys like joe Biden will go away their kids can't handle nothing maximum will be that they easy targets for foreign sharp minded people to take advanched of the situation.
Sons or daughters who are living on having a wealthy or rich family would be most likely be ending up on this one but actually parenting does play a great role when it comes to this matter on which your kids
wont really be ending up on a disaster if you are a parent whose really that have that kind of minding about your kids possibility of going lost of track specially if they are really that having  that too much
access on everything since you give them money.Its understandable that we do really love on giving them the most comfortable thing into their lives on which they wont really be struggling on something
but we should really be making it some moderation because if we dont then they would be possibly go into those things which arent supposed to be there like having drugs, gambling, spending carelessly.
It is really that truly a disaster if you do see your kids on such situation, therefore it would really be just that normal that if there's someone that could be blame then those parents
does have that kind of responsibilities too but of course not everything should be blamed because there are ones who are really that well trained or teaching them everything but still
it turns out to be useless or pointless.
526  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tips on staying responsible. on: November 28, 2023, 06:59:39 PM
Having that knowledge and having the right mindset when you are already inside gives you the chance to stay or to keep your composure,  as knowing the risk and still continuing your participation will give you lesser chances of becoming addicted,  if you know and understand everything,  you can control and be responsible enough to avoid addiction.
We know the basic fundamentals of the system, some of us derived joy in ruining our plans unexpectedly, when we continue to gamble without any plans for proper entry, just triggering positions because we just wany to win, we forgets that there's existence of serious hardwork, because we're easily moved by what we see, talking about what we see, I mean we're more open to gambling and it consumed the higher portions of our activities and mind. There are numerous tips to stay on the lane of been a responsible gambler in the system. We're not here to make accounts for losses, rather we're here to milk the system.
However, we must be able to be responsible and control ourselves while gambling so that we don't get addicted. Many people have lost their responsibilities while gambling until they end up gambling too often and not controlling themselves. It was a big mistake for them because they didn't remember what their purpose was in gambling and what they had to be able to gamble safely. Yes, we are easily moved and tempted by what we see, but if we have responsibility, self-control, and so on, we can definitely take good care of ourselves. We can also prevent ourselves from gambling excessively.
Regret is always at the end and if you are really that careless when it comes to things specially on decision making and the common decisions that needs to be done then you are really that susceptible into lots of errors.
This is why you should really be that sensible on whatever things that you would gonna do. Being responsible is the key, you wont really be finding yourself to be that addicted if you are just mindful with your actions.
527  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you pay for signals? And how much ? on: November 28, 2023, 06:19:56 PM
Dlyou pay for signals? And how much ?
What's your monthly expenses for trading signals? Yearly?
I don't pay but i read alot people pay for signals so how good results If this ?
Crypto price are very volatile and when a trading call is made by the so call paid signal service providers the price of that particular crypto pair must have move ahead or below the call price of course the subscriber would have enter a trade at wrong entry except if it is buy or sell limit call, thus I don't subscribe to those servics,  I have personally experience live trades and I knew how fast price of crypto moves and reverse thus paying for any signal service amount to wasting of money and most of those providers made their money from their subscribers I would have imagine that a very good and experience signal provider would have trade on their own and make massive profit instead of paid service.
You should be quick if you dont like on getting behind and this is why it would be that so crucial if we do speak about time because once you missed it then there's no way on getting back.
Some will really be just telling that the signal provider that they are paying doesnt give out efficient or something profitable without even trying to look with their mistakes then they are the ones who would really be needing to be blamed but just like on what most people been saying on here that signal providers are just speculators just like us, the things that they are providing then this is something
that we can also do but if you are that too lazy then this is where you do choose this as an option.

Paying for signals is never been worth and just a waste of money but if its free then it isnt bad but if its needing up some sub fees then i won bother on doing so.
So it would be just that better if you do make on your own and this is something much more worth or better because you could be able to
make use of your own skill in the future and as you do go ahead then you do make yourself more better.
528  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Not this guy on: November 28, 2023, 03:22:56 PM

I've get to know that not all gamblers need to be a responsible gambler, some knows, they are not hypnotized by gambling, they are fully awake and they still choose to be a reckless gambler.

You forgot to mention what’s the financial of this guy whether he is ultra rich, poor or middle class because this understandable if he has a lot of money to spare on gambling in exchange for entertainment but this is alarming if he is just poor or average wealth that has family to support.

We have different reasons on why we gamble and probably this guy has something he believes that’s why he keeps on trying. His action is really alarming for us but we don’t know the full story and his financial status to make a proper assessment on his action.
This is true, if he's still that playing until now then it do basically means that he's a rich guy on which sustaining for too long despite of losses instead of win then it is safe to assume that he do have
tons of money because if someone who do have less or not really that financially capable then it is really safe to say that someone is really just that poor or average.
Just let him be on what are the things that he would be planning to do because if we do tend to look at at it then it would really be that just that normal that its none of our business on how they would be spending their money. If they dont care about their losses then so be it.

People would usually stop on the time that they are experiencing hardship but if not then expect that they will continue as they please, as long they do have the money
that they could spend and have the funds that they could be able to make use on. People would usually be that stopping completely if they werent that
capable on doing so and this had been always the concept.
529  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Hodling vs trading on: November 26, 2023, 08:07:26 PM
Hodling and trading has always been a debate in the Bitcoin crypto space.Are they different? Of course yes.Hodling is a term used to describe owning Bitcoin in a wallet especially for a long period of time.While trading on the other hand refers to the selling and buying of Bitcoin through an exchange.
 Both Hodling and trading have some similarities such as ;

1. The use of wallets to store Bitcoin.
2. For both trading or hodling to be possible you must own Bitcoin. Although trading requires a minimum amount of coins, hodling does not.
3. Both require you to understand how to secure your coins to avoid hacks or loss of funds.

Nevertheless, despite these similarities hodling and trading are also distinct this is due to the fact that hodling is usually long termed ( hodling appreciates better during long term.) however trading returns come from short term fluctuations in the price of Bitcoin.Due to the uniqueness of Bitcoin,some  persons tend to choose hodling over trading due to some advantages such as;

1. Ease ; hodling Bitcoin saves you the stress of understanding marketing strategies and little price fluctuations As you only store the Bitcoin in your wallet without transacting.(successful trading requires constant research and experience)

2. Transaction Costs ; Hodling comes with a lower transaction cost which is from depositing the Bitcoin in your wallet. However trading incures cost due to frequent transactions especially when the network is congested.

3. Long-Term  Gains ;Over time Bitcoin  has shown promising potential in it's price.Hodling  helps you benefit from the long term potential of Which in most cases appreciates better than little price gains from trading.

4. Security; Hodling your Bitcoin gives you a better option of making use of offline wallets such as air gapped wallets or hardware wallets,As they deem more secure than online wallets
 
With all these being  said it is important to note that hodling shitcoin is not advisable due to their exponentially high volatility which may lead to severe loss if not properly managed.
Trading and hodling is always a choice as they indirectly serve as balance to the Bitcoin ecosystem.

Don't forget to keep your keys safe 😁
I think that you forgot to mention the most important thing: if you do trading, there is the possibility to lose everything. If you just hold, then there is virtually no risk. I say virtually because of course you need to know how to store your keys and keep your wallet safe, otherwise someone could steal your funds.
No matter which way you would go, there's always a risks but they do really differ on certain extent and this is why it will really be your choice and your own responsibility on how you will really be handling up yourself
into these conditions on which it is normal that mistakes and errors could happen along  the way. Holding is less risk, yes but potential on holding for more long because of market crash or bear market then this is something that people or investors do like because they will really be that needing to take for couple or 5 years almost for a cycle before they could see those price to break even and this is why not all would
be opting out on holding but instead they would be actively trading it.

Even myself do find out that im not really that having that long patience when it comes to investing, i do get easily bored when i dont able to see profits in short time
and this is why i do really make out short trades but of course im aware of the risks involved and this is something that a must thing to have on each person.
Go into things on which you do most prefer.
530  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What according to you should be the age to retire from gambling ? on: November 26, 2023, 05:46:54 PM
It's true that some elderly people may become more demanding or difficult as they age. This can be due to a number of factors, such as changes in health, cognitive decline, or social isolation. In the case of gambling, it's important to remember that it is an addictive behavior. Just like any other addiction, it can be very difficult for people to control their gambling once they've developed a problem. This is true for people of all ages, including elderly adults.

But I believe that those elderly experienced gamblers who associate gambling with entertainment and the thrill of potential winnings are people who have self-aware, caution and responsibility, because all those adrenaline turbulence in gambling wouldn't affect them.
Responsible gambling means being in control of all your gambling activities from protecting your funds to avoiding gambling addiction every detail is essential. Unfortunately most physically ill older are unable to manage their gambling activities effectively. Adult experienced gamblers have more knowledge when faced with difficult situations but they can bring everything under control so they take less risk. There are many older veterans who are self-aware but their performance declines with age so it is better not to gamble.
I have been gambling for a very long time and have been among gamblers almost my entire life. Let me tell you something, I haven't seen a gambler who gambles responsibly, at least not how the definition goes. People rage and lose more, it's very common.

But there are people who come out of the bad session and are able to focus on other things while others (addicted) just cannot forget the loss and lose interest in other things such as their job, family, etc and that's when gambling becomes a problem.

So, a more relevant question should be "Why do you want to quit gambling" rather than "when to quit".
Usually people would only quit on the time that they literally cant be able to gamble, just because they dont have the money that they could really be able to spend but on the time that they do really still have the funds
then stopping will be out of their vocabulary on which it is really just that a normal approach. Just let them be, usually gamblers are hard headed, stopping will really be always in the end of the line on which on the time that there's nothing that they could pull into their own pockets. We are just the ones who do lead up ourselves into disaster just because of our greed and being stubborn.

It isnt really on the age you do have before you should quit gambling because neither young or old, you are that susceptible to addiction on which this would really be that resulting
into that kind of situation which you would be suffering on huge losses or having that huge effect into your finances if you arent that careful.
Retiring is something that you could ask for those long time gamblers that had been playing and become that sustainable, for new ones? I dont think that it would fit out.
531  Economy / Speculation / Re: Whats your thought on: November 26, 2023, 03:58:42 PM
I believe that it is going to take some time before people could realize how terribly long time it takes for crypto to make a move like that. I know that it is not going to be easy but if we could wait for it then the supply/demand mechanics will make sure that the price will go up. Of course this won't be easy and we are going to see some things change for the better as well but we just need to realize that it is not going to be that easy.

Waiting is the hardest part for many people, but if we could make it happen then it is not going to be that impossible neither. Realizing that crypto is something that is profitable, specially bitcoin, over course of long period of time is something that takes time but everyone understands it eventually.
From what I've seen before, most people who are willing to wait longer after buying Bitcoin with the intention of investing are more likely to profit at a better moment. Although there are also those who regret being too hasty to buy at high prices and can't wait for the price to drop so they can buy at lower prices, so we also have to have a level of patience in waiting for the best to come because if we only rely on capital and courage in buying. Someone will not get a more tolerable profit if his patience is still very little.
Correct. I agree with you that in investing, especially in the crypto world, relying on capital alone is not enough if it is not accompanied by a high level of patience. Apart from that, psychological factors also influence us in investing. Sometimes people panic sell when they see market conditions experiencing a significant decline and hear negative news, which makes them make the wrong decision which ultimately results in big losses.

In this case you need to have a strategy to manage your funds if a way that it can minimize your risk in any major correction by maximizing profits. Taking financial decisions with emotion is a very bad practice a person can have even outside of crypto. Sometimes our short term financial inability forces us to sell our crypto holding even at a loss so we need to have a financial plan for both the crypto world and our real lives. Selling assets in terms of emergency needs will limit your profit in any kind of business.
Actually it is really that hard to avoid on not to make any reactions since we are just humans on which it is normal that we will be having those kind of impulsve approach because no one really likes on losing money
or seeing our portfolio which is on negative. If you cant be able to handle yourself well into this market, then it isn't bad to look for someones analysis too, not on the sense that you will be that
too depending or relying on it but snipping out some ideas which would be added up into yours will really be that ideal. Bitcoins price pump and dumps will really be that mattering on different factors but there are
indeed moments that even the market is really that too silent but still it would really be that making some random movement on which this what makes things even more harder to guess on where it would be going.

Outcome and results would really be that entirely depending on how well you do make yourself in terms with right decisions and calls. It might not be simple but doesnt
mean that it would be impossible. It is really just that matter on the actions that you are making and it would be always better that you should be that
sticking into your own plans.
532  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can a gambler be a good bitcoin trader? on: November 26, 2023, 01:41:48 PM
Aside from taking a risk, I don't see any relation between a gambler and a good bitcoin trader. So, I certainly believe that even if you are the worst gambler, you can still be a good bitcoin trader if you are inclined on trading market analysis and you have the skills and strategies to trade. Unless if you don't know what you are entering about, then you might end up gambling and not actually bitcoin trading.

However, being a gambler is not really a problem if you wish to trade bitcoin at the same time. As long as you can stop the habit of being a compulsive gambler, then you can try trading too and become a skillful and profitable trader as well.
Yes, that is right. It's only identical to the risk we are taking but the truth is gambling is riskier in my own opinion. In gambling, we tend to lose money without a fallback. In trading, we can somehow save our trades by pulling them out before it goes to zero. And we are not risking our money against the house in trading. We are trading against the flow of the market which could be unpredictable unlike in gambling where the system controls it.
They could make you lose most of the time by simply not letting you win on every bet that you will make. While in trading no one is in power to control what will happen to the market unless you are super rich to manipulate it. That is unlikely to happen because I believe retail buyers and sellers are too many than the whales. If there's anything that can move the market, it's either the hype or FUD and if a trader is updated to cryptocurrency news, he will always be ready to either buy or sell. There's a big difference between the industries that are being compared.
There's no doubt or question to that if we do compare gambling risks and trading risks but on the time that you do make out trades without having those indicators or analysis then you are just simply doing gambling.
Risk is everywhere specially if we do speak about earning money then this is something which is relevant or really in default. Gambler could be a good bitcoin trader? It does vary because there are other behaviors or factors on which it is really that needed for you to be considered to be a good trade. Risk management is really important but we know that it isnt enough on just like that, you would be needing other factors
on which it would be helpful on making yourself to be better.

Same goes into those gamblers who are strategic based on which it is really that something that you would really be needing to have that kind of skill for you to survive out.
If not then you will be just putting up yourself on a situation on which you will suffer with those losses same goes with trading too.
If you dont make yourself that wise on taking up decisions or risk factor then expect on what would be the next outcome.
533  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling with crypto because taxation makes no sense? on: November 25, 2023, 07:36:03 PM
Taxation is a topic that often comes up when it comes to someone winning anything in gambling.
The so called "nationally licensed" providers will usually automatically get a cut from anyone's winnings whenever they win anything.

And let's be realistic, we all know the drill with gambling. Most gamblers are not in the green and those that persist do it for the thrill of it, not to earn from it. So when you win, it's usually from your own bank. But whenever someone is lucky enough to catch a break, governments will slip in and take their share. Regardless if you've lost more than you've earned in total for instance. The irony on this matter is also that gambling wins are used to substitute how many taxes these state "licensed" casinos have to pay. So the whole subject of gambling taxation is unfairly structured towards the player.

Moreover, in many countries, filling out the forms to get taxed can be a nightmare. For winning 100$ for example, you will have to pay a big chunk of it to an accountant to find how it should be taxed. Bureaucracy is a whole other debacle in and of itself.

I'd imagine that many people actually chose to gamble with crypto to avoid these restrictions and bureaucratic procedures. It really makes no sense to go through all these troubles to tax a small winning amount. Still if someone happened to win a large amount on a small bet by chance, I'd imagine some people would want to tax it so they can spend it in the real economy as fast as possible.
When we do speak about taxation then expect that government would really be that attentive into that, no matter what industry you are involved into and on what things that you are dealing with.
As long you could really be able to be taxed then they would definitely do it and they dont just care. %? It would really be that totally depending on them. So far here in our country
taxation in gambling winning isnt something that happening not unless if you are really that hitting some lottery then thats a guaranteed tax but if its not or simply saying
you are playing on a physical casino then you arent obliged on paying up something.

Its true that if something becomes too strict then it would really be just that so normal that people would really be going into those options on which they could
really be able to avoid taxes. Yes, it might really be that suggested since we do know on what taxes are and its benefits but on the sense that it do really goes
to the roof then this is where things that would make out those second thoughts.

I will also advice you to get your self a source of income, do not just conclude now that you can make earnings from bitcoin so fast that you will be able to depend on it. If you think bitcoin can make you to become rich so quick I think it is another kind of gambling you are just depending  on. Their good benefits you can gain from bitcoin but I would not advice you to make it all your priority at this early stage of your journey. The market of bitcoin is unpredictable because of volatility and this should not be what people needs to put all their hopes on to make money from it by all means.
Your advice is good and I can't even believe that anyone would say they want to rely on Bitcoin alone simply because is capable of earn them money. What if anything unforeseen happens? Even though Bitcoin and its investment are good, one still has to be careful and not rely on it solely, there are times that Bitcoin would have a long-term bearish trend and that could span for years. And as we all know, it's Bitcoin investment that is easy, you can be sure of earnings when you merely HODL it even as you do nothing.

But trading Bitcoin which traders rely upon when the price of the coin is falling is not easy, which is why no one should even dare to believe they can rely on Bitcoin for their only earning means, such action could be bitterly regretted. Come to think of it, I can't for any reason think about that as an able-bodied person, such speaks of laziness, but we see much of it these days where even youths wouldn't want to work but just be spending money. If the source now cut, they become desperate and result in all sorts of bad activities. So, no right-thinking person would rely on investment alone, such a person would work to be active and build a career rather than believing they would sit down always and the money would continue to flow forever.
We all know Bitcoin is being known with this kind of information. Expecting Bitcoin to be the alternative way to earn passive money and suddenly become successful in life without knowing its real use. Especially newbies, they come and ask for advice, on how to trade, how to invest, how to earn without money, and then make a rush to learn about Bitcoin as they only know it as this is a kind of job where they can earn and disregard any other source of income. They are yet to understand the importance of having a stable source of income than relying solely on Bitcoin.


Doesnt matter whether we are talking about Bitcoin or not, as long we do make money then this is where people would flock in and wont really be minding about real use case or whatsoever because people would really be that normally be having that kind of approach when it comes to money making. Lets accept to the fact that people would really be that interested on knowing crypto just because of the money making
opportunity that it gives rather than on minding or knowing about its utility on which even myself had put my foot into this market when im still a noob just because i was really that interested on making money wayback where airdrops and faucet things are that popular into those old years on which it do really falls down into the criteria that you are really that interested on making money.
Who doesnt really want to earn money? For sure it is really that the main catalyst on where most people here on crypto space might had really start up.

Doesnt matter which kind of motive or treatment you do have, sooner or later you would really be able to learn up those basics and would really be that able to realize those utility
but still it would really be just that ending up on your second priority because what matter the most is that you could really be able to make money which is something
that someone would really be that focusing into which it isnt really that shocking imho.

I don't think so it's a good advice. Because I think gambling depends entirely on luck, it doesn't matter how much time you spend gambling. Those who gamble for this purpose, I think, have made their addiction to it largely out of greed for money. In this case, you may see some people's who spend a lot of time gambling and are winning in some cases, but if you calculate the amount of their losses, you will see that the amount of loss is more than the profit. So it is better to follow a strategy and spend a certain amount without going with this objective.

The gambling based on the luck and the tactics,sometimes your luck will bring more profit.But sometimes the tactics overcome your luck and get you some good win in the gambling sites.The convective people thing of the luck in the gambling,but the pessimistic people will target the luck using their own hard work using their own time to analysis the entire game.So such gambler will made the history by targeting the luck using their own build skills.The gambler who spend huge time and play the gambling for the huge time.He automatically get the more skills to that specific game,if the gambler had win huge game in the gambling,he only earn some dollars.But if the gambler had played many games and loss many games means he will self sufficient with the knowledge of that game.
Getting desperate? You lose!

House do always win in the end
Betting on sports does give out non assured results
Therefore it would be up to you on how you would gonna deal with the things that you are currently involved with specially with gambling.


I have not heard about this before. My gambling y friends and I that are gambling all know that the more you stay gambling the more likely you will lose more. If you gamble with a bigger amount, either you win or loss just quit for the day. But to prolong your gambling time, use small amount and enjoy but there is nothing like jackpot unless you just have the luck.
When someone gambles there is no target for time so everyone should keep a fixed budget for gambling so that the budget does not help him to gamble for a long time. Because prolonged gambling hardens a person to his deep addiction. Then he does not care about the negative effects of gambling. And thus he became a gambling addict and suffered a lot financially at one point. So I would suggest to always set a budget so that it only helps him to be entertainment and not addicted
Fixed budget is a must because if you dont put up any budget or limitation then you are really that putting yourself at great trouble and this is something that must be avoided when
you are dealing with gambling. Never make yourself that desperate or trying out to catch those losses because if you do then you are really that putting
yourself at great risks and  this is something which it isnt recommended on doing so.
536  Economy / Economics / Re: No Correlation Between Academic Success and Financial Success on: November 24, 2023, 08:55:25 PM
I agree, I've got high school classmates that were geniuses and then I don't know what they're doing right now. But I have seen some of them that didn't do good during college because they don't have money and they failed to avail scholarships. From that point, those failed classmates of mine have managed to come back because of that experience. While those geniuses that have afford to graduate and managed to be successful academically were top runners and achievers and got their employment. And those that didn't reached to college due to their unfortunate situation managed to learn the real world and life and helped them to achieved financial success through their hustles.

Well, people still believe that Academic success is a necessity if you want to get a job as a career as no company will hire you if you do not have a good academic record. This is just one side of the picture, where academic success is absolutely necessary.

On the other hand, if you need to have financial freedom, then you should start your own business, and be your own boss, and in this case, even a moderate academic success can be fair enough. Though knowledge (academic) is always good, you do not need to pressure yourself that if you fail in your academic career, you will fail in your financial life. If you are a businessman, you will know that success in business does not need success in the academic stage of your life.
I think it's fine to start with academic when you're a freshy. That's normal for most companies as they don't have a background of how to work and what fields they have been in before. The academic achievements that they have is like the basis on how hard working they are as the school works are also tough to have with and having that principle of being responsible. But that doesn't really define someone's success and as we grow older, we're seeing the other side of success that most people don't see when they're younger. What we can do is to tell the younger ones that just do good in what they do and that will define themselves when they grow older whether it's from academe or financial success.
As you grow older and you do seem that you are doing something which it isnt really that making you progressive or something that could really have that life with having a good financial status then this is where
you would really be starting to think that you should really step up your game. Its true that when we are still young then we wont really be that minding much about those future things and it turns out that
when time passes by then this is the moment that you would really be making out some realizations that you should have done something when you are still young. There's no way that we could be
able to turn back the time and its really just that normal that we should really be that attentive on whatever changes that we do really need to come up with.

Academic success doesnt automatically means that you would really be successful in life. Yes, its not everything but it is really that something more better compared into those
people who arent. You would really be having the advantage among others, further success will really be mattering on how you would work hard for it or on able to achieve
it, you wont progress if you wont really be making risks or trying to move or risks out something.
537  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why the rich win gambling more than the poor. on: November 24, 2023, 06:49:19 PM
I have observed that the rich, I mean those who are financially comfortable, win more in gambling than the poor. By poor, I mean those who do not have enough to meet all their needs. I don't know the reason for this. Could it be that the rich understand financial management more? Or could it be that the rich are less desperate to win which make them make better gambling decision? I really want to know the reason for this pattern I have observed.
We could only say that they are winning more just because they could be able to bet more on which on the time that they do make some hits or wins then it is really that big looking because of those
$$$ but if we do speak into those casual or average gamblers who do make use of small amounts then the extent on how they do bet is limited which is really just that only on few rolls
on which means that if they do lose up the entire balance then its over.Whereas into those people who are rich and having big balance then it might look like that they are winning
but actually those wins cant really be able to patch up on the losses that they had made. It might look that they are positive but actually they are on negative not unless if they are really
that lucky on hitting those big wins then its possible but doesnt mean that it cant happen on small gamblers also, it all matters with luck in the end of the day.

Totally agree on this point you had made.

Rich people might be looking that they are winning big and those are just visual illusions on making someone believe that they are on positive
and since they could make out bigger bets and longer sessions then it is really indeed true that hitting up some winning round is more evident compared into those who do have
smaller bankrolls so everytime we do make out some comparison then it is really that too obvious.

Just like the rest been saying or on most people on this thread that it would really that mostly matter with luck whether you are poor or rich because there are
poor ones who do become rich on hitting up some nasty wins on those few rolls that they had done.So there are really no evidences about into this matter because
people would really be that assuming basing up into the things that they do observed but actually it doesnt really have sense on this regard since each
person does have their own lucky moment on the time that they do gamble.
538  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you pay for signals? And how much ? on: November 23, 2023, 07:25:02 PM
Dlyou pay for signals? And how much ?
What's your monthly expenses for trading signals? Yearly?

I am not the type that uses signals, so I don’t pay any amount of money for signals. I would rather sit down, do my analysis myself, and trade. If you want to depend on trading signals, then you will be losing most of your money, because I am sure you will have fallen for lots of scam trading signals even before you discover the legitimate ones. I have been added to different groups claiming they are signal providers, but after dropping signals, you will discover that it’s just predictions that they are making, they are not making any analysis.
 
I haven’t seen any legit signal groups,  maybe they do exist, but I haven’t come across them. All the ones I have seen are just fakes, in which the owners are hungry and trying to scam people who are desperate to make money and who are not ready to learn.

I don't pay but i read alot people pay for signals so how good results If this ?

How sure are you that all the reviews you are seeing are not fake? How sure are you that they are real? There are lots of paid reviews. Don’t be surprised that some people making reviews don’t even use the signal, some of them are not even traders, so don’t be deceived by the reviews you see on the internet. You have to try them and confirm to yourself that they do work. And even if the signal works, for how long do you think it will last?
You shouldnt be in the first place because those things been shared or being tipped on are things which you could really be able to make your own.So its better or wise that you shouldn't really be joining out into those so called VIP groups because it isnt really something worth it. Why i could say so? When im still a noob then i  do get used to join up with these type of groups on which on the time that i do able to get in,
then you would really be able to see those analysis and signals are really just those typical techncical analysis kind of approach into those charts that they are giving which just like i said that
you could really be able to make it on yourself when it comes to this.

Do you pay for signals? Better not. It would rather be wise that you should really be trading on your own and never ever consider yourself to be that joining up with these groups because
it has nothing to do for you to become that a better trader. We do know that it is really that something normal that we would really be finding up ways and methods for us to
fasten up a bit when it comes to trading learnings on which joining up these groups might be your primary option but think not since its not something
that you would be needing in the first place.
539  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can money be saved in gambling sites? on: November 23, 2023, 06:06:50 PM
~snip~

OP this is equivalent to asking if you can save your carrots in a rabbit hole. What were you even thinking before coming up with this kinda crazy Idea  Cheesy. Logically it's possible to keep your funds in a reputable gambling site, but the question is, as a gambler can you resist the temptations of seeing your betting account heavily funded, because you'll definitely want to give it a try. If you've accumulated that level of self control then you can do that without the fear of loosing your fund. But for me, I'll never consider such an idea and I believe that majority of the people here would agree with me that it's a very risky method of saving up your funds. If you don't want to save your funds in fiat( which I'm highly against) and wish to save it using crypto, then their are so many better options to consider, there are several decentralized and centralized wallets and exchanges you can save up your money and still don't have to worry about your safety of the funds rather than considering this ridiculous id3a as an option. Lol
Hahaha you are right and it is indeed difficult to save some money on gambling sites because there is always the temptation to use it whether playing or betting because gamblers feel they have some money in their balance and when they see good opportunity they will definitely use it.
In addition, saving money on site is also very risky and can even cause bad things if the inappropriate site is used, but on reputable site the main obstacle is the temptation to use the money as gambling capital.
Moreover, I not sure there are gamblers who actually save large amounts of their money on gambling sites and they use this method to invest because there are lots of personal wallets that can be used if only to store investment assets.

But it is true that everyone has their own decisions and responses, perhaps OP really wants to save his money on gambling site with the aim of getting number of benefits and being able to gamble easily without having to deposit money at any time.Grin
The risks imposed on saving up money on a gambling site?

1. Temptation on spending those savings when gambling urge calls
2. Security - There's no way that it is really a wallet that you could depend on, they can ran anytime
3. Locked up potential
4. Imagine on having that 1x wagering into your deposit

I dont know on why people do think about this thing for it to be that viable or something that it is really a wise thing to be done? Are they out of their minds?
Saving up on a gambling site rather than with your own wallet or with banks. I dont know on what are the things that they've been thinking  Huh
540  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Someone just paid 83BTC for transaction fee, on: November 23, 2023, 04:59:21 PM
As we all know the transaction fee continues to get high as the mempool remains congested for almost a month now due to reoccurring ORDI tokens on the bitcoin blockchain. This has left some people a bit furious and some newbies making costly mistakes of setting high transaction fees.

A transaction that was in block 818087 had actually paid a whopping sum of 83 bitcoins as the transaction fee. I would say this is a costly mistake but for someone having that huge amount of bitcoin in their possession I don’t get it. The transaction was first broadcasted with a fee of 70 bitcoins and then later was replaced with that of 83 bitcoin as fees.

My guess is the sender was probably trying to set is fee as 70 and 83Sats/vbyte and then mistakenly set out that high fee. The block was mined by Antpool, hopefully they would treat it as mistake and return the funds.

1. TXID for the 83 bitcoin fee: b5a2af5845a8d3796308ff9840e567b14cf6bb158ff26c999e6f9a1f5448f9aa

2. The replaced transaction ID: 0c35f3c8a0c38f45629940ee9ab2b1c93d408be113845a735043261ad20f3351

Advice to newbies check properly the amount your setting as fee and make sure you are looking at the right fees estimator, use wallets that allows bumping of fees in case you set a very low one
Really that hard to believe that those people who are owning tons of Bitcoin is really considered as a newbie or someone who doesnt even know about basic operations. It is really just that impossible to believe on.

Okay lets say that someone had stored up those coins in electrum, so bumping up fee could be possible but its really that impossible that you cant really be able to read up
that sat/byte thing before you would be sending out your coins but well if this is the case then it is really just that costly mistakes but we've seen similar
situations back in the past about passing up huge amount of fee or making use of it.

Pools that had able to confirm it out or such transaction would really be that basically be returning out those things. As long this one creates too much
noise then community would really be have that normal approach and making reaction then it is normal that they would be returning it out or
even something that ethical on doing so.
