Nice vid.

Not a big deal but you can also consider including an English subtitle embedded directly at the video (not via caption or subtitle option on the YT) since it's more organized compared to the default subtitle view in Youtube. Almost most of the information video especially on what we have seen nowadays do have that.

There are newbies who are having a hard time catching up on what the author or speakers says especially for a video with a direct speaker.

Just a suggestion but not necessary to have it. Smiley

Sports bettor ako pero para sa akin mahirap to pero nakakatempt iyong jackpot at weekly basis pa yan. Whole season naman to and puwede ako maglaan ng pondo exclusively para dito. Kahit naman mag-mintis ng araw puwede pero sa dami ng kasali at weekly basis lang siya, every days count and matters. Sa ngayon kasi iyong sa Nitrogensports ang pinag-iisapan kong salihan e.

Place as many bets as you can across any NBA (including preseason), NFL and NHL matches with minimum odds of 1.50.

Kaya yang 10 winning streak kaya lang ang dapat ang tayaan is minimum odds @1.5 na nagpadagdag ng difficulty para maka-streak. Sakop ng fair odds yan meaning nasa 50-60% ang chance of winning (based on my own numbers). Mahirap din yan Cheesy . Sa 5 streak nga honestly hirap ako e pero interesting odds naman yan between @1.8 - @2.1 depende pa if may makita akong high odds na worth tayaan.

If you lose a bet your counter will reset to zero and you can try again!

Ito pa pahirap dyan. Pero advantage sa mga naghahabol kasi iyong mga nasa top eh pede lumagapak.

Doon kasi sa palaro ni @inthelongrun walang amount risks kaya more on random bets ang nangyayari at minsan kahit di sure, lapag lang ng lapag gaya ko sa ibang mga games.

Isa ako doon lol. Pero kung may risk amount ako kada lapag ng predictions siguro makita mo mga nilalapag ko mga 2-3 games lang tatayaan kada round.



Iba tong Sportsbet. Ginawa nilang abot-kamay ang pagsali sa competition with a decent amount as reward in return. Pero dadaan talaga sa matinding challenge bago makapasok sa Top 10. Para syang trap na worth magpahuli lol.

Who risks nothing has nothing. It could happen again be ready or not.

It can't applied to all the people in society. We are living in different standards.

Taking the risk is not a joke for an average guy who just earned enough for daily living. The risks of hodling will take several years in the process so basically, the amount that will put in BTC should consider as a loss since it will be idle for a long time.

As much as possible, I never suggest to anyone, especially those who don't have knowledge about bitcoin, to buy bitcoin and someday they will have a good profit in return. It's kind of, forcing them into something that might put them instead into depression once they can't handle the risks of hodling.

Of course, I like everyone, at least, to take part in accumulating BTC no matter the standard of their life. However, it's not as easy as what we think even how positive we are in the future of BTC. Instead, I will try my best to educate them if ever they ask for some guidance so that they can think outside the box on how they can save little by little so that they will see from themselves if BTC1 can actually change their life in the future.

The last time PH was the host, they ranked 1. It's really a big impact on every country as a host since it will boost the player's morale. Although on the following SEAG event, the PH rally isn't impressive. So hopefully, with the big preparation they did this year, they could snatch again the Top 1.

Thailand as always is very consistent in finishing a good rally in the past SEAG. Since 1993, they always end up at either Top 1 and 2. Will not speculate for now who will have the most gold medal on this event.

In this year's SEAG, they will also feature the ESPORTS. This is the first time I think in a medal event competition.

As for the crypto sports betting sites, if I recall correctly, Cloudbet and Nitrogensports opened a bet for this event last 2017. Or for a quick response, we can ask the question directly at their ANN thread.

Seems like hardcore fans of GSW is too quiet now. Cheesy

Let them take a break for now. And besides, for me, it's not surprising after all if the Warriors ended up on the bottom since we all know what happens.

What's more surprising to me is those who are in the bottom last season are now in the Top 8 on the West. So unusual to see the likes of San Antonio Spurs and Portland Trail Blazers at the bottom since they are used to seen always in Top 8 even at the early phase of the season.

Anyways, we are not even yet on half of the season so expect that changes will surely happen. The gap between W/L is not that large. The competition is really tough as always in the West so every win matters.

hello, i have some btc that i want to get fiat quick without any KYC hasstle.  Any suggestions?

Since you have mentioned "without KYC", expect that you will have a hard time founding a legit service. Person to person direct trade is the most convenient way to stay away from KYC although the risks here are, to whom will you trust.

The most convenient way I knew although it needs KYC is via your local crypto exchanges if there's any. Withdraw your funds from Paypal and deposit it from your local exchange. In most of the cases, the local crypto exchange does have access or partners at the most payment processors in your country, therefore, depositing your fiat to them is convenient and less hassle. Then from there, you may now buy bitcoin.

5428  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Some problematic things about Coinbase on: November 21, 2019, 09:59:12 PM

Not a supporter of Coinbase but these problems you have mentioned are also applicable to the majority of centralized exchanges around. It's even better to pick Coinbase over those small exchanges.*. Even using the most trading platform like Binance also has some risks.

It's a general rule of thumb that when it comes to exchanges, just only use their service and not to act as a primary store wallet. We can't hide the fact that for others, especially in their supported countries, it's convenient to do buy, sell and withdrawing their funds at Coinbase so even we throw our negative experience about this exchange, others will still continue to use their service.

So for new users, always conduct research about choosing an online exchange service.

So don't store your hard earned/invested money in Coinbase. If you can afford, buy a hardware wallet. If you can't, use something like Electrum and store your seeds and/or passwords on paper and keep them somewhere more secure.
Good luck guys. Smiley

As I have mentioned, for storing purposes, don't use an online wallet. It's quite basic and even newbies nowadays know this once they study the basics. Disregarding Coinbase, there are really times we need exchange services on either buying, selling, converting BTC to fiat and withdraw. Unless you are bound to hold your coins forever until the price hits at $50,000 or $100,000, then don't use any online services.
5429  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What will be Gift of Santa Claus in this Christmas for Bitcoin Hodlers? on: November 21, 2019, 11:33:32 AM
Now, I think the last 1 year is not good for the BTC hodlers. So, I just ask Gift of Santa Claus this Christmas for Bitcoin Hodlers?

Look at the bigger picture.

2018 might be painful to some but look at the progress this year. During that year, some even say that BTC will stay at its recorded price low for about 2 to 3 years. What happened this year is already a big leap coming from a blood market that lasts for almost a year. The recovery just took several months in the making and even breaching the $12,000 level.

Now for Santa, he doesn't need to do anything because hodlers will remain hodlers even Christmas or so. Maybe you can request for some for a few BTC as a gift instead rather than expect a big price leap. Smiley

Again, let's do the talk after several games. Their next game is against the Milwaukee Bucks. One of the tough teams in the league that needed a serious approach in terms of defense. Let's see how Melo will deal on this.

I think its better this way that people are criticizing him so he will be challenge to produce what his left in the tank..

The fact that:
 
-no team has shown interest to him during the off-season until just recently despite the massive call from NBA superstars, players and former players
-he was being rejected in Team USA because they think that he might destroy the momentum of those young guns
-he is questioned about his behaviour
-he is known for having a poor defence
-he is now willing to take any role, even a bench warmer, towel boy, cheering squad, in the desire of coming back to the league

... isn't this enough loads already for him not to challenge himself on becoming a more matured player?

He is currently on the process. Again, let's do the talk after several games. Remember that his journey to Blazers is until January only and if no improvement was made, he will surely be out.

Sino pwede mag pautang dito kailangan ko lang ng 0.025 for a month at babayaran ko rin bago mag december 20 ng 0.027BTC.

Kung gusto nyo ng collateral pwede ko munang ipasa sa inyo yung PGN coin ko pero sa mga trusted members lang muna ayaw ko kasing benta tong coin na to tumataas na rin kasi ang presyo.

Pero kung walang collateral sana pag katiwalaan nyo ko almost 4 years na rin ako rito sa forum. need ko lang kasi ngayon ayaw ko mag benta ng mga coins na hawak ko dahil talo pa ko sa pag mina nito binabayaran ko na ang kuryente ngayon di gaya nung nakikabit ako sa may jumper ngayon wala na umaasa lang ako na tumalon ang mga presyo ng mga altcoin ngayon.

Sure bro. Dami na rin ba competition sa CP repair business?

No collateral. Just keep it to yours at baka mabenta ko pa yan pag bumaba ang price. Cheesy

Make the proper loan format.

You have a point mate but do you really think Melo got no problem at all? I don't think so. Okay let's disregard first the critics from the crowd. Melo did a 4/14 FG, turnovers and 2 offensive fouls (according to the post above). See? He is inefficient at the moment, so I think it is fair to conclude that he served more of a burden rather a relief for their team.

The discussion about Melo's evaluation should be after his tenure in the Blazers. We are talking about the average here.

He is currently adjusting to the phase with a new team, new teammates, a new environment and coming from a long hiatus and drama in the real action on the court.  Just imagine how much pressure he is currently dealing with as everyone is expecting him to show good performance at every game. This is his last opportunity so I believed he is working really hard for that.

Again, let's do the talk after several games. Their next game is against the Milwaukee Bucks. One of the tough teams in the league that needed a serious approach in terms of defense. Let's see how Melo will deal on this.
5434  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Anyone use UltraMixer dot net? on: November 20, 2019, 10:34:47 PM
Just confused why people do still make use or find these shady mixers out there if there's a reputable and mainly suggested one? Huh

In some of the cases, there isn't really a problem or concern with the site. They are just shilling it here or on any platform to an attempt of making a noise.

Can't believe they are throwing away money for a site that doesn't even have reputable reviews around. They do trust easily what they saw in search engine results. We didn't even know where did they find those sites aside from search engines. So either they are completely n**b or just shilling the site to gather users.

For OP, charge this to your experience. I hope the amount involved you have deposited is not that "decent".
5435  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What online gambling should take care with bitcoin payments ? on: November 20, 2019, 10:11:07 PM
I am developing a casino review webste where we are looking to add some casinos with bitcoin payments and i am looking for experts to help a bit with what exactly we should consentrate our reviews ?

So you are in search of crypto gambling sites especially those with a casino feature.

A quick way is by hitting your favorite search engine with a keyword "bitcoin gambling sites" and you will see some.

Surely, you will see a long list of crypto gambling sites but we all don't know how reputable they are in the world of crypto so your task is to check them. For the reviews, you can visit each site's discussion thread, if any, either here at the forum or in any platforms or you may think outside the box how to gather Infos at those sites.
5436  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Reputation at stake will you stop gambling on: November 20, 2019, 12:38:48 AM
Ok you are gambling just for fun, your friends and neighbors knows that and a friend invited you to his party to be one of the candidates as a councilor and campaign will start in 6 months, now, of course, you need to have a good reputation, will you stop gambling just to have a good image this coming campaign and how will you defend yourself if accused as a gambler. 

Honestly, this problem will just affect those new candidates that are not recognized by the people or not having a good background outside the political world. They should consider refraining from doing gambling for people not to think that the people's funds might be at risk although they have no intention of doing sh*t once elected.

If a certain candidate is known to have a good track record, don't have any issues involving corruption, known as a good politician throughout their tenure and can comply with all political works, then it shouldn't be a problem if they will continue to do gambling. I mean, why should they stop if they can cope up their role as a politician. It will not raise an issue about the possible corruption because of good history as being a politician and people knows that the money used in gambling is clean.

Although my statement is only possible if there's a politician like that as nowadays, it's really hard to find a politician that is 100% clean from corruption.
5437  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Would You Pay for Odd Jobs With Bitcoin? on: November 20, 2019, 12:16:08 AM
An unemployed dude comes to your house to ask for off jobs, say to throw away your thrash and mow the lawn. You had no cash but he owns a bitcoin wallet and asks to be paid in bitcoins. Would you pay in bitcoin?

In the first place, for a work like that, I will not hire anyone to do the work for me if I currently don't have money on hand.

And I just want to save him from a hassle way of converting BTC into fiat. The fact that he is accepting a work like that means he is using BTC as a source of income so much better to have a fiat payment for that kind of work.

Anyhow if he is really an BTC enthusiast and pushed for a BTC payment instead, still I will only deal with fiat - hand to hand.

Others are already aware of this scheme. However, since the amount to risks is somehow can afford to lose, they will still test the waters. These sh*t sites, although their attempt is somehow obvious, they can still play and take over with the mindset of those greedy and desperate people.

People will really never learn until they realized how big their losses are.
5439  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Altcoins or Bitcoin? on: November 19, 2019, 10:46:00 PM
The fact that altcoins like ETH, BCH and others are slowly gaining more use has made me thinking. If somebody were to HODL one currency, what could it be?
A 100% altcoin portfolio? Or a 100% bitcoin portfolio?
Or do you support holding multiple crypto coin holding?

You need to conduct your own research about this as statements here are purely based on people's different views and preferences. You might see others having a good run on a certain strategy but it doesn't mean you will have the same result.

Diversifying is always an option but why others still don't see it as an effective way? That's because our strategies vary at each other. Some became a success at diversifying and some are not.

Try to know what fits you.
5440  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: November 19, 2019, 10:23:32 PM
Looking at standing of the teams now, I guess many GSW fans are disappointed on how the team's run currently. I'm not a fan of them but sadly, they are at the last standing on the Western conference.

That is expected so nothing unusual nor surprising. If those fans are disappointed, they don't understand the whole Warriors situation. They aren't really a fan. Some fans even accept that Warriors will not shine this season right back directly before NBA season-opener.

But honestly, being currently on the bottom does have an advantage to them. Lots of time for their main core to get back on shape for the next season and they will surely have a good ticket on the next year's draft pick. Give up the goal this season and those remaining Warriors should use this opportunity to somehow be used on following Kerr's system.



Everyone kept saying how it will be hard for him to mesh with Westbrook and they will have hard time and guys are second seed in west and Harden is averaging 40 ppg so everyone was wrong.

I'm one of the people here who says that WB and Harden's duo might become effective in the long run even the majority knows that these players are ball-hoggers. The reason I say that before is because these 2 know each other very well and that was one of the factors for an effective chemistry build-up.

However, I don't want to speculate early that their duo will become a success in the long run since we are just in the first phase of the season. More importantly, the way they are showing right now on those all games they played this season, there is no question raised about chemistry problems between them.



Will Melo be able to sign this year? As for me, YES. I pick YES because I think no one will bet for it based on the current Melo's situation that is almost no development or progress if some teams will still show interest to sign him. So basically, I'm the one who has the most risks here. Smiley

BTC0.005 each for first 2 who will take the bet.
This is very interesting, so this means we will know who will win by January 1, 2020?  I like to reserve that first slot then if the answer to my question is yes. I will bet against you.  Grin

DEAL. Quoted for reference.

My chances are until December 31, 2019: 23:59. Let's follow the BITCOINTALK FORUM TIME.

1 more taker open.

Hey mate. Looks like I have won. Smiley A sign, whatever the offer, is still a sign.

Carmelo Anthony to sign with Portland Trail Blazers

Anyways, we can wait until we see Melo playing actually on the court before we finished this deal so these reports and agreements are not just a pure statement.
