5221  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Stable coin for Every Currency on: February 23, 2020, 08:22:41 PM
I personally predict that in the future, governments in all countries in the world will make their own country's cryptocurrency.  just look at the example of China which announced that they would circulate their own country's cryptocurrency and certainly, this will be followed by many countries in the future..  I am very confident, stable coins will circulate together with fiat currency in the future or even replace fiat currencies.
This prediction seems impossible in the nearest future imo, cryptocurrencies have been used for years now, but till now how many countries have adopted their own cryptocurrency, none as of yet, China wants to, but till now that are yet to do so, government have no reason to be eager to create a national cryptocurrency, that energy would rather be employed in improving their fiat currency.

A stable coin for every currency is "asking too much", even if there are to be more stable coins they'll still be in the most popular currencies in the world and those of countries with the best economy.

Watford is getting worse and continues to suffer successive defeats, now in the relegation zone maybe next season we will not see the bitcoin logo again in EPL because Watford will go down to division 2. It's sad.
They should improve their style of play and start winning games if they are to still be considered worthy of having the bitcoin logo on their jersey, lol Grin. Well it's not over for them, there is still hope not to be relegated, for me the only team that is certainly going to be relegated is Norwich city. Watford are down in 19th position with 24 points, just one point away from safety, so hopefully you may still be seeing the bitcoin logo next season, lol.
There just isn't a more complete and crafty forward in PL.
And arguably even in the history of the EPL,  Kun is definitely up there amongst the likes of shearer, Henry etc as one of the best strikers to ever play in the EPL, one missed penalty shouldn't alter that, should it.
5223  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why are you involved with Crypto? on: February 23, 2020, 03:38:05 PM
With what I have heard and seen, crypto remains the best way to make money...
You are not so correct and it hence becomes very necessary for you to understand why you are not. The best way for you to make money is to get a job, there is no arguments about that, cryptocurrency may be one way of earning, but with the risks involved, for me it's not "the best way to make money".
Many have become rich over night with this method.
In something close to your own words: Many have also lost all their savings overnight, there is no assurance of profits exclusively as far as this network is concerned. I am very sure if you came hoping to be rich overnight as you claim many have done, be sure to be disappointed and you will be lucky not to be defrauded by scammers as a result of your desperation.
5224  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Which new exchange attract you most? on: February 23, 2020, 03:18:09 PM
No new exchange has done enough to lure me, patronizing newly launched exchanges isn't a good habit to form in this network, cultivating such habit may eventually lead to bad choices and decisions of investing in wrong coins as a result of either fake volume or phony coins being listed on them. I always stick with the older and more competent exchanges, that being said I never ever leave my funds on them.
What do you think about it? Or is there any new exchange you like?
There are a lot of them that I do find interesting and catchy, but I do not use them, what's the purpose of that much exchanges when one is sufficient enough.
5225  Economy / Speculation / Re: The bitcoin halving to increase cryptocurrencies prices. on: February 23, 2020, 09:32:23 AM
1. People already anticipating for it and they are ready to invest before the halving time.
Btc price would not increase because people are anticipating this years halving. I may be wrong, but I have this thought going on in my head that those who are too bothered about this halving and if it will increase the bitcoin price are those bitcoiners who want just a get rich quick scheme, not a network they love, admire and want to continue using for the foreseeable future.

Do not be excited because there is a halving coming soon, be happy you are privileged to witness, use and explore all bitcoin offers during your lifetime.

It's goaless at half time at the king power stadium between Leicester City and Manchester City, this one isn't as interesting as the first leg, but there were few chances at both ends though. I don't think either side would be changing any personnel(maybe a change in shape and tactics though)coming into the second half as the game is fairly balanced, the only thing I think this game needs now is a goal, a goal for any team would breathe life into this match, a draw by the way isn't a bad result for either of them.

It they win it this season I’m only guessing but I think they’d allow them to play in next seasons CL to defend tgeir title. The ban would be delayed until the following 2 seasons. Just my opinion but I think it’d go down that way.
It's not correct, no matter what happens in this seasons champions league as regards Manchester City, they wouldn't play in the next two UCL tournaments, except of course if their appeal is successful. City winning the UCL title wouldn't change this. I do not know how far their appeal case is going, but right now, it's becoming more certain that city will miss out in the next two UCL's, big, big loss for them.

I mean, if you do a good job of securing your accounts (2FA, etc) should you really be that worried that an exchange could get hacked? I use Binance, by the way.
You use Binance and I know you have the feeling that it's one of the best exchanges, which is correct by the way,  but news flash is that even Binance is not unsusceptible to cryptocurrency hacks on exchanges. And another tiny piece of information is that when your funds are on an exchange, securing your accounts isn't the issue, as you're not in total control of your funds, so once the exchange has been breached by hackers, there is a high chance you will lose your funds to them.

Will atletico quench Liverpool and edge out a win?
This is the match I'll be watching tomorrow, Diego simeone and athletico know how to play a very tight game, with little chances and few goals and I think that's how tomorrow's game is going to be(both legs even). It's almost impossible to pick who's going to qualify at the end of the tie, but whoever will go through, will do so with the tightest of margins.
Will exciting Dortmund oust psg away from the champions league?
PSG will go through for me, both legs would be easy for them, Dortmund are not an easy side, but I'm sure PSG would be too powerful a force for them to eliminate.
5231  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The Scammers behind HomeBlockCoin, CryptoAdSolution, Pagarex and other ICO's on: February 17, 2020, 06:06:50 AM
I lost too much money on this shits. I lost money on their scams, i lost money on their lies, i lost my network because of their shits. I lost too much also on consulting lawyer agencies...
How do you even trust them enough as to invest, I wouldn't say it's surprising that people still invest in ICO's, it is Infact unbelievable, if it were to be early in the days, you could be caught in two minds as there were the good and bad ones, but right now, everyone is in the know(no one can claim not to be)that they have all been created to swindle your money away, but the conundrum now is, despite this "Epic" revelation, why are users investing nonetheless.
Jinbi was a very organized scam project. It was one of those projects you could hardly believe it will be a scam.
I am not used to giving the scammers credit, was the project  organized so perfectly or were the investors just so "blind" they could not tell what the obvious culmination will be(getting scammed).
5232  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: February 16, 2020, 06:07:33 PM
Spurs won, yeah, thats three points for them and it's three really important points but this lucky wins against lower teams isn't the reason why he was signed as manager. Mou loves to win in whichever way possible, but I am sure spurs fans are used to playing the "champagne" way; I don't know how pleased they will be with this new pattern.
Pepe makes it 2. Dude's confidence keeps growing.
Arteta has rejuvenated him, he now has more confidence, playing more games and having telling contributions, I'll love to see if carries this form into next season, when Arteta would start as manager from day 1.
5233  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: First petition to lift CryptoCurrency Ban in Pakistan- your suggestions needed on: February 16, 2020, 04:35:09 PM
It's good to be honest with ourselves, we can write petitions all we want but in the end the government does what they so desire, it's very possible that this petition wouldn't even get to those in power(the decision makers).

The common man in a centralized system, doesn't really have a say in the affairs/decisions of the government, they make their decisions mostly in an arbitrary manner, I want this ban to be lifted, but I do not know if i(we)can do anything about it.
5234  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Gaming Industry and Cryptocurrency! on: February 16, 2020, 03:36:34 PM
The only problem that I see here is that a lot of kids are exposed to gaming industry as well as cryptocurrencies and that might cause certain problems and addiction too.
The "gaming" industry has existed even before cryptocurrencies, so as for the issue of addiction, some people(the young and old)have always been game addicts, so it didn't just start now, nor is it due to cryptocurrency affiliation, it's in people's nature to be addicted to what they love doing and playing games is one of them.
However, gaming industry remains one of the best promotors of cryptocurrencies.
It's impossible to contest this statement, the two industries looks to blend seamless, people all over the world love to play games, advertising through that means is a perfect way of promulagating cryptocurrency.

Kane has not recovered yet but it seems without him Tottenham was able to manage two straight wins from last two matches and one of them was against City.
Mourinho is one manager who doesn't really depend on a particular player, Harry Kane is an indispensable "talent" for spurs, but Mou being the tactician that he is, can and has coped in his absence. Mou loves to do the unexpected, I'm sure even if Kane was fit, Mou would have had tactical tweaks that would have kept him on the bench for few games.
Mikel Arteta is not good enough in his coaching unlike Lampard is good enough after becoming a Chelsea manager.
I know the game isn't patient with managers anymore, even those who have done so well with their clubs, face a sack the minute they start having real bad days. Arteta hasn't been the perfect manager thus far, but did anyone expect him to perform any magic? Arteta would not be judged, at least till the end of next season. This young managers need time.

All the symptoms, possible cure, safety/prevention methods for the corona virus are all online, it wouldn't even take a second to just research about it, email and password verification is ironically even a longer process to get information on the virus. it's really idiotic and ridiculous to give such information out on a subject that has gathered so much popularity and with all safety measures being made public on various platforms: news, internet, schools, billboards etc

Tonight Champion's League spot match between Roma and Atalanta, 2 contenders for the Champions League final spot.
It's goaless at the moment now, and it's in favor of Atalanta, as if it ends in a draw, they will be there points clear of Roma and though it's not too much of a gap, but it's a lead and something for them to hold on to.
Sad news for CR7 fans, he has not been called for the match for tomorrow, he will stay at home and rest.
Even though Juve fans mostly come out to watch Ronaldo, it's not so much of a sad news since I think he's been rested for the UCL which is their top priority.
5238  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: February 15, 2020, 04:37:11 PM
He should have started thinking about lifting a suitcase from City and heading to his home at Barcelona. What do you think, friend?

That has been my suggestion right from the onset, Pep ideology isn't impacting the team any longer therefore there isn't any need for him to stay at Manchester city for another season irrespective of the ban or not and obviously the ban will motivate his departure.
The ban yes, could well and truly mean city losing pep Guardiola and maybe even one or two key players, but don't you think people are too quick to forget about the good things pep has done in the last two seasons, he has had two terrific and superb past two seasons with city, and yes they have really messed up this season, it's still too early to say his ideology no longer works, pep is a fighter and he can always bounce back, this season could even still end in a not so terrible note for them.

There are a lot of uncertainties right now, especially due to this ban, what's next for city, what if their appeal fails, this is enough to keep city on the backfoot for seasons to come, it's a real psychological blow for them. Will pep leave, will city splash the cash this summer, etc etc.
5239  Other / Meta / Re: Do we need merit sources for low ranks? on: February 15, 2020, 02:58:30 PM
Spending smerits must be followed by normal users as well and shouldn't be limited to merit sources which isn't happening for majority of the time.
This point is really important. Since the introduction of merit sources, some users see it as just their job and theirs alone to give out smerits, so they hoard their smerits for no reason, and even if they are to come in sight with posts that even they themselves know is "up there" and needs to be merited, they do nothing, waiting for the merit sources to "come do their job". It's wrong, and I'm also thinking that if every user spent their smerits, no hoarding whatsoever, complaints would not arise and the duty of sources wouldn't even have to come under close scrutiny.

Theymos says he reserves the right to decay unused smerits in the future, that will be a really interesting implementation, it may encourage users to do more with their smerits, it would even deter those who sell merits from hoarding it for a long time to sell them eventually, so they do not lose it. Decaying hoarded smerits is what I suggest in addition to whatever has been said to improve the system.
5240  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Facts about bounties on: February 15, 2020, 02:00:34 PM
Remember that even good projects that looks promising can still fail but here is what I want you to hold on to, a single bounty project can cover for all your losses, what I meant is 1 project can give you biggest profits even when you've promoted 10 projects that gives nothing, this is why its called BOUNTY.
So rather than maybe try to build an account on the forum and try participating in Btc bounties, or get something like a job in real life that you'll be rest assured you will get paid as at when due, you expect a user to keep trying bounties in the hope that someday one will pay them, that's a limited mindset imo, users should know they can do better than that. Even if you get paid, those tokens go to zero in no time.

And FYI, if you just keep trying out bounties alone, envisioning the forum as an "ATM machine" to make money, you will never have a decent account nor will you grow in rank.
