5621  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Dump or HODL these coins? on: May 03, 2020, 04:54:03 AM
I wonder why you do not have any Bitcoin or Ethereum in your list?

All of these tokens and none from the top 5 listed on CMC. I am not sure what you can do about all of them but, if you are in profit on any of them by 5 percent also then I will recommend you to get rid of them. None of these tokens have any future for the long term. They are all short term quick gain tokens.

Every online platform is the same as the charges are on the higher side and you do not get a good exchange rate. I think it is better to check the local bitcoin website and find someone who can trade with you over the counter. You will be able to negate those charges and earn a decent rate.
5623  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: When to buy - question to Hodlers on: May 03, 2020, 12:59:45 AM
Hi fellow Hodlers,

I hope Im right in this subforum to ask the following question that has probably been asked plenty of times?

When do you buy or do you spread out buying Bitcoin with FIAT?

I myself buy Bitcoin every month no matter the price for a set amount from my paycheck, in hopes of averaging the price I buy for.
Before doing that Id wait and hope to catch it at a lower price but that always seemed to go in the wrong way, aka. price went up =)


Im just asking because I want to know if there is a more effective way to do it?


tl;dr When do you buy your Bitcoin?

I am also following the same routine as you have been doing. I have been investing in Bitcoin for a certain amount from my paycheck every month and things are quite down as I started doing it from 2018.

I believe in the long run it will earn us a profit. In the meantime accumulate as much as you can as with less dollar value you will be getting more satoshi.
5624  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading is better than Holding on: May 03, 2020, 12:54:34 AM
I am not a big risk-taker, therefore, I avoid trading and focus more on Holding. I have friends that do trading every day and sometimes they make money and sometimes they lose some. But, I am okay with what I have and do not want to lose anyone of those. When the time comes I will go ahead and make some good profits.

~snip~

It was mere suggestion from his side anyway. Even if such law doesn't comes in reality, PCB still need some fixing to do. for ex : boycott any players  who gets caught in match-spot fixing, no matter how talented they are. 
I understand this all but sadly we are very lazy in these things because most of politicians and related boards have links and relationship so they are eating all they never like any strong action and law for this all.
Well its not just Pakistan problem. its same everywhere but prevalent in Indian subcontinent when it comes to cricket.

Politicians comes from the society so we can't pin blame on politicians only. Sometimes society need some soul searching too.
In India they have some better system and accountability about many things just because of this now they are one of most powerful cricket board in world but in our country we have nothing just personal like and dislike which hurting many talented youngsters and blaming politicians is really never been good but its need to settle things as they came in power just for this all.

It is still there but, you have to prove your talent. There have been many instances when a player got selected because he is related to someone but if they are not able to perform they are quickly removed and the next person in the line gets the chance. Corruption and favoritism is everywhere.
5626  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: May 03, 2020, 12:44:24 AM
Here is Pakistan team for 1992 Word Cup as this was not favorite or good team at the time but they done really miracle and won this world cup
Imran Khan, Javed Miandad, Saleem Malik, Rameez Raja, Aamir Sohail, Zahid Fazal, Inzimam-ul-Haq, Ijaz Ahmed, Moin Khan, Wasim Akram, Aaqib Javed, Mushtaq Ahmed, Wasim Haider, Iqbal Sikandar, Head Coach Intikhab Alam.
Imran Khan selected a team with young players along with experienced players like Javed Miandad and i remember Inzimam-ul-Haq was the trump card as he was sent to score quick runs and even though Waqar Younis missed the tournament due to injury, Wasim Akram and Aaqib Javed spear headed the bowling department with Mushtaq Ahmed as the main spinner .

That was the best team in the history of Pakistan Cricket. On one side they had the best bowling attack and on the other side, they had the best opening pairs. The middle-order was supported by some of the best batsmen of that era. In all a perfectly balanced team with newcomers and veterans.
5627  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which of the two will you choose as a gambler? on: May 03, 2020, 12:36:57 AM
Account security and anonymity have major importance in crypto gambling industry. I will explain two authentication processes and their pros/cons that an under-development project is considering. Through this thread I want to take views/suggestions of the community on the better of the two processes. Here are the candidates:

Option 1: Email Based Authentication

Under this option, you will be asked by casino to fill username, password and email id on registration. To increase the security, you will be asked to set-up 2FA authentication. To make withdrawal, you have to confirm email id.

Pros:
Easy to use and remember system.
Easy to retrieve system if password gets compromised.

Cons:
Easy to hack and brute-force.
Identity may be linked if same email is used somewhere else on web.
Always need additional device (phone) to login (for 2FA code).


Option 2: Keys Based Authentication

Under this option, you will be asked to fill username and password on registration. Then a private code (long alphanumeric) will be generated for you and encoded with the help of password you entered in first step. Now you have to store private code somewhere safe. There onward, you have to paste private code and password to login into system.

Pros:
Complete anonymity
Highest degree of security. No one can hack or brute force your account even if database is compromised.

Cons:
Extra care needed to maintain the security of private code.
Since code is not saved anywhere on server side, losing code = losing account.
One mistake and your account is gone.
Impossible to change code. If you give away code to someone over phishing page, etc, then you cannot retrieve/secure the account again.


That's all. Which of the two systems would you prefer as a crypto gambler. Suggestions/views are welcome.


For me, option 1 is better than option 2 as I use the same email to access all my accounts and it is kind of easy to remember. I do not hold a lot in any of my accounts so in case if it gets hacked only a small amount will get stolen.
5628  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: May 03, 2020, 12:32:56 AM
Man, Just for experiment. i want to see more than 24 team in one T-20 WC, no matter if its economic disaster or not... ICC should go for it.

For Olympics T-10 seems logical to me. 

I would love to see two dozen teams in the T20 World Cup. But then, the ICC would never agree. On paper, they have 16 teams. But 8 of these teams are restricted to the first phase, and only 4 out of the 8 will advance to the proper tournament.

I am not a big fan of T10 format. It is too short for me. I watched the 2019 T10 league on TV and didn't liked it that much. It has nothing for the bowlers. Even T20 is heavily in favor of the batsmen, but T10 is just like a bowler's gas chamber. Why can't we have T20 in the Olympics?

Coming back to this T10 game format, it is surely a bowling nightmare but they should change the rules for T10. There should be only 5 batsmen allowed in T10 instead of 10 and this will bring some interest in the game and it will not be like blind hitting like in baseball.
If they think about this all then surely with current system T-10 is really good for Olympics because its really interesting and any team can produce any result surely we will able to have few big upsets going with 5 batsmen is not ideal as full team format is also not bad at all.

I actually like this format as I think it gives all teams even the lower ranked teams a chance at winning against the top teams as anything can happen in 10 overs so I really like the idea. Yes I agree that it will be tough on the bowlers but that was the same when T20 started, the good bowlers will learn to adapt to the game just like they did for T20 and in time I'm sure it will even out.

Yes, there is nothing wrong with this format. If you like big-hitting matches then this format is for you. Nowadays bowler are having tough times in one day and T20 format as well. Pitches are being made to help the batsmen more than bowlers because the crowd loves big sixes and fours.

The best thing about T10 format is that it will not consume half of your day.
5629  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: CORONAVIRUS IMPACT ON SPORTS GAMBLING on: May 03, 2020, 12:27:39 AM
Sports betting has nothing to do with the spread of this virus, it has done nothing wrong to impose their credibility, and of course, they do not. There is no real choice but to stop and continue again once everyone has returned.

There is nothing wrong with gambling gamblers trying online casino games. They may also like it and this is their first time entertaining before the situation subsides.

You are right, during this difficulty most of the people will attract to online casino games, they can spend their free time on gambling. Instead of going outside. I don't find anything negative in sports betting because now due to the situation of the Corno Virus many people are staying away from it, so people who gambled on sports betting will return once they start again.


If someone is into sports gambling then for him/her it is very hard to adjust to online gambling games. I am sure many of you here will agree. Sports gambling is a completely different niche as the outcome here is not decided by the house but the actual game.

No one knows when live sports will resume for now it has to wait as lives of people matter more than entertainment.
5630  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Which investment is a safe haven Gold or Bitcoin? on: May 02, 2020, 11:25:40 AM
Indo not understand why people have started comparing Gold with Bitcoin. Bitcoin is only a decade old and the amount of expectation from it is very high.

I prefer to invest in both. In my opinion those who do not want risk and want to cash out on their investment at any time they should go for Gold.

Those who are okay with market risk and want to earn high return they should invest in Bitcoin. The risk is significantly high to Gold but the return are also very high.
5631  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Buy Bitcoin With Credit / Debit Card. on: May 02, 2020, 11:20:32 AM
Hello anyone can recommend a good website where you can buy BTC with Credit/Debit card relatively easy?

Im running an IPTV service and want it to make it as easy as possible for clients to pay.

All websites i have found requires doucments ID and stuff, plz any suggestions?



For upto 2 Bitcoin you do not need to go through any KYC. If you require more than that, then you need to create multiple IDs and make those purchases.

In my opinion you should try Binance as it allows you to purchase in your local fiat currency using debit and credit card.
5632  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is the main purpose in gambling, always to make more money? on: May 02, 2020, 10:50:38 AM
How can you always make money from gambling?

In gambling the chance of losing money is very high to making money from it. I have seen so many gamblers in this forum saying the same. In my personal experience I have won less and lost more.

Gambling is not your regular job but a way to entertain yourself untill it becomes addiction.

5633  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Scammers in a top exchanges telegram groups on: May 02, 2020, 10:45:30 AM
This is for all newbies and those who don't know, please share among friends

Every single telegram channels or groups of crypto exchanges are tagged by scammers, be extremely careful

The moment you have a problem with an exchange you will instantly get messages from people claiming to be team of the exchange, you can get the following messages

1. How can we help you?
2. What problem are you facing on our exchange?

They will pretend to be the exchange help service and they will ask you to make deposit to get your issue resolved, honestly if you aren't familiar with scammers you can easily fall victim

Group channel of exchanges like binance, kucoin, Okex, huobi are full of scammers waiting for people that needs the team help to resolve an issue, be wise

I am fully aware of that and I keep blocking people who randomly message me, they either invite you to invest in binary or they invite you to withdraw from casinos which are all scams, and besides all group channels of projects always have a warning that they will never message first and if they do message they will announce it in their group channel better take all these advice to avoid getting scam.

I do not block them I just play around with them till they ask me to pay for their service or they will ask me to give my exchange password . Then I can't out all the good stuff in a gentle and polite manner till they block me. It has happened multiple times that telegram banned my ID for few days.
5634  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Brave Browser launches Binance Widget on: May 02, 2020, 05:45:16 AM
Good marketing strategy from Binance by getting their widget integrated with Brave browser. I am thinking how much did they pay Brave browser and how will the commission be calculated.

As per my understanding the widget service was present for website owners, where in they were paying a good commission. Are they paying the same to Brave or something different.
5635  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: US Presidential Election 2020 on: May 02, 2020, 05:36:00 AM
After looking into the present situation I believe Trump will not get reelected for a second term. I do not know what will happen in the next 3 to 4 months. But, if the current situation prevails then it is very hard for him to win the election.

Everyone in US is suffering because of the deadly virus and this situation has also crippled the economy. All of these are bad signs. If a  vaccine is out before the elections then Trump has the ability to change the mood of the nation.
5636  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If you could, would you delete every altcoin? on: May 02, 2020, 05:29:48 AM
I would. Why so many cryptocurrencies should exist? Only one, and all of us would want the same coin.

Like in the real world, we have yens, euros, dollars. Imagine having only 1 currency  Shocked

Wouldn't it be great?

In my opinion it would not delete those cryptocurrencies that have a use. Now, how to identify those cryptocurrencies?

You just need to check their marketcap and product information that should solve it.  I think only 50 percent of those listed on CMC will qualify the criteria.

The rest can be removed or deleted from the market.
5637  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: DEX's with MILLIONS in volume, COULD make you stinking rich, here's why. on: May 02, 2020, 03:05:54 AM
Actually I like DEX to succeed, but as of now, I haven't send a DEX that is successful.

I am not familiar with the real purpose of the coin, but the way describe it, it pretty looks promising, but my concern really is, is there a potential for DEX to grow in the future when regulation are getting stronger in the crypto space?

DEX's can't be regulated as they aren't owned by anyone, which is WHY they'll succeed over centralized exchanges that CAN be heavily regulated Smiley

Do you really think DEX can compete with CEX?

How many DEX do you think have the highest volume and were able to deliver thier promise.

The only benefit that I see about DEzx is that you do not need to go through KYC or registration apart from that there is zero benefits.
5638  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your Gambling Life During Quarantine on: May 02, 2020, 02:46:59 AM
It has been more than 40 days now I am under lockdown and I have not gambled yet. I did not feel like gambling in this period of uncertainty. No clue as to when things might get normal or I will have my job, too many things in my mind at the moment. Therefore did not have the urge to gamble at all.
5639  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Did gambling cause you to have difficulty in sleeping as a gambler? on: May 02, 2020, 02:34:00 AM
It is obvious that if you lose good amount of money then you will have sleepless nights. I have not experienced it yet and I do not intend to in the future. I gamble with what I can spare. I always gamble with small amount and never exceed the limit.
5640  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Satoshi Nakamoto never used Bitcointalk - new claim by Craig Wright on: May 02, 2020, 01:28:53 AM
He again? I thought his journey about bitcoin destruction is finished. Though, why he is now making a statement about Satoshi Nakamoto never used bitcointalk? Is he done impersonating him? ~
He lives with sensation, so he is always looking for ways to get other people's attention, like narcissistic symptoms, maybe. Actually we don't need to spend energy on this insignificant problem. Since the beginning Satoshi kept his identity a secret, leave it like that.

He is a joke who is trying to amuse the world and create a fake identity. Unfortunately that has gone against him and that is why he is known now as Faketoshi. I am amazed by the level of confidence this guy has, I sometimes feel he is suffering from attention seeking syndrome. As he tends to always seek attention by creating fake news.
