Good to see your new update. I remember that I still have some Ohm and satoshi, which is not what I used to bet. But as I check my account again, I see I already bet on 3 events but that bet will announce the result in the next year if I am not mistaken.

I tried to check on sports betting, but I think that is not easy to predict because some bets predict the score for both teams or are there a penalty shootout that I am not sure if I can predict correctly.

Going to other countries is somewhat a hassle thing to be done by a business owner considering on overall expense that you would need then that would really be a headache

unless if your business is already too big and you can support all the possible expenses then its your choice but i would say that it is much better to deal with higher tax instead.

If you do saw your business can still sustain despite of additional tax then i dont see the worth of transferring to other countries just for that sole reason.
If they do not mind to moves to other countries because they do not want to pay high taxes, they will do that because the business owner will do many things to have less expense. But if they can sustain with all things and even get a profit, they will not do that.

But before the business owner opens their business, they already have to know how much their expenses every month. Maybe it's not about the right amount, but they have the calculation about that. They also discuss that with their consultant so the business owner can get help from them.
5983  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Terms and condition a must read before signing up any online gambling site on: July 07, 2021, 04:06:45 PM
Reading up terms is a must but if you are really get bored on doing that then always seek just on the highlights or most important details.
It will be the important thing that gamblers must know before they end up gambling. If they can not withdraw because of a little mistake, that will make them regret it. Besides that, if they already read about the other gamblers mistakes, I think they will try to avoid that and make sure that they will not break the rules. Maybe the casino will change some rules based on the conditions, but the gamblers must follow every rule from the casino.
People don't realize that agreeing to some online casino's Terms & Conditions is the same as signing a piece of paper without reading what was written on it. I hope we all understand and realize how dangerous it could be signing a paper without reading, equally if not more risky is signing up to a casino without actually reading everything the casino has in their Terms & Conditions.

It takes hardly 15-20 mins to read all the Terms & Conditions roughly and if some point you feel has a trick or some kind of error which might trouble you later, take more time and read it carefully. It's your money and you cannot do much if you agreed to some exploitative conditions while signing up o the casino.
Maybe that is because they do not think that they will deposit more money to gamble so they do not read the Terms & Conditions. If they do not have a problem, they will not read until they get a problem and realize that they break the rules. Unless you do not deposit too big and not playing gambling too often like the other player, you do not have to read that.

Spending 15-20 mins is too long for them but maybe they will just read the point and continue playing gambling. I hope we read all the Terms & Conditions or at least, we can do that when we take a break to know the main rules.
5984  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How to distribute 21 million Bitcoins for a population of 7.8 billion? on: July 07, 2021, 03:04:15 PM
I do not think all people in this world will have bitcoin because many people will not want to use bitcoin. The amount of bitcoin that people have will be different because we know some people already joined in bitcoin from a long time ago and they still have a large amount of bitcoin. But as bitcoin price still not increase too high, it will give more chances to people to buy bitcoin as many as they can because someday, when bitcoin price increase so high, they will not have a chance to buy bitcoin in a big amount.

Welcome to the forum.

This is my first time to hear about nexget.io. You can add a black interface for your website or use an option to choose the color for the site because white is too shiny Grin

As long as you can maintain your site and working hard to promote the site, I am sure your site will grow and have a chance to compete with the other exchanges. But as we are concern with our identity, I hope you do not ask for KYC to your members but you can ask KYC for the member who wants to withdraw more than 1 BTC at once. You can compare with Binance because Binance allows its members to withdraw 1 BTC.

I do not register as a member, but maybe I will try to register and see how it looks inside the dashboard.
5986  Economy / Speculation / Re: The market is full of opportunities to come on: July 07, 2021, 01:08:02 PM
It is possibly happening right now actually. I mean,,, every time I see Bitcoin hit support and go back up, I feel like it is another moment that the bulls could decide, okay this is it, we are ready to buy more. And then when one or two or three big buys trigger, it leads everyone else waiting to also lock in their buys. Plus,,, this is second half of 2021 now so a lot of companies will already be executing new budgets:)
But after the moment that the bulls come is not still increase instead go down again and that happens many times. I mean about the market will rebound up and down, but this hour, I see the change for bitcoin price to break $35k as the price now increases to $34,9xx. Hopefully, this week will be a good week for bitcoin to break the high price.

the "rebound" is going to be IT though. when the price starts rising you will quickly realize that we are in a massive momentum that nothing can stop and price will suddenly be so much higher than this. we have seen this many times too. if you zoom out and look at any flat line on the bitcoin charts you will ALWAYS see them followed immediately by a huge jump up specially if they lasted a very long time like this one.
Unfortunately, that will be a bit late for us to follow the price because we will not realize the price can do that. Sometimes, I feel that we have been tricky by the price because we just wait and analyze but we are not sure if the price can go somewhere, but after the price moves, we realize that we miss something. But that is what happens and having an experience for this will solve our problem.

A rebound is guaranteed to happen because isn't that what bitcoin does best? It had the 2018 crash as an example so I don't really understand why some people think that bitcoin won't rebound this time even though the prices are in a much better position than the past market price positions.
We see the rebound is coming now as the price starts to increase. But there is no sign for us to see bitcoin can break $35k. But if the price really breaks $35k, then maybe the price can increase more than before and we can hope that the price can have a pump to the next high price.
5987  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Be a Responsible Gambler on: July 07, 2021, 12:10:08 PM
Some just learned the hard way, while some are really responsible enough  to understand the risk in gambling, they also understand their real chance of winning so they will not try to be ambitious to consider gambling as a source of income, instead they'll consider it as a way to entertain themselves.
Indeed. It is difficult if we become ambitious to win, especially if we do not see our chance of winning because that will make us unable to see enough. Gambling is part of entertainment so we should use gambling like that and not use gambling as a source of income. By doing that, that is a small part of being responsible for ourselves in gambling.



It is better to use the money from the loan to create a business because you will have a chance to make money from that
Basically, to loan money both for gambling and a business in real life isn't recommended. You are better to wait for having sufficient money to start a business. Especially for gambling, it is better to avoid. There is no guarantee of success, instead of high risk to lose big money. We don't need to force ourselves to gamble or start a business if we have no enough money yet.
That is the right thing that we should do. But the fact is people do not have patience and borrow money from banks to create a business. But for playing gambling, it is not recommended to borrow money, no matter what the reason is. Usually, when people borrow money from the banks, they already plan what they will do for that money to stick to that. But for people who borrow money for gambling, they will not ask the bank instead, they will try to borrow the money from somebody else.

Being a responsible gambler needs more effort and I am sure that we can do that, although it is not easy to start.
A strong intention is the first thing to have if we want to be responsible gamblers. Then, surely we need to try constantly although it requires big efforts. When we can discipline and commit to our goal to be responsible gamblers, we will be successful to change our habits to be more responsible in the end.
If we can do that, it will be a matter of time for us to become responsible gamblers, and when we play gambling, we can use gambling to entertain ourselves. And we can stop gambling anytime we want because of our reason for playing gambling because of having fun.
5988  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Taking Profits on Altcoins Strategy on: July 06, 2021, 05:34:15 PM
5. After the bull run should I just put my stablecoins in something like Blockfi during the bear market? Or is cashing out to dollars and investing in something like real estate a good way to defer capital gains taxes?

after the bull, and you get a profit from the investment you make it would be better to keep it in a stable coin and you can stop for a while to enjoy it.
usually, I do that when I get a big profit from the bull run. like this year because I came out of the market at the right time.

After the correction, I bought some for potential altcoins in the market improvement, but this is not for the long term because the potential for the down market is still very large. so when we get a profit we can get out of the market quickly. don't ever think the bulls brought the asset to break the ATH in such a short time.
With convert it into a stable coin, he can buy again when the price is down or he can select the other coin which will have potential and have a chance to increase later. As long as we know when we should sell and take profit, we can sell it and do not wait for more or become greed because we will be too late to sell at a high price. We should use the chance to make a profit while we see it. Otherwise, we will regret not selling at a high price because the price will not stay at a high price for a long time.
5989  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What are the reasons for entering the crypto market? on: July 06, 2021, 04:17:42 PM
I join the crypto world because I see a chance to make money. I start investing in bitcoin and many more while the price is at the lowest price, and from that, I make a big profit in 2017 and this year. That makes me believe that crypto has a bright future, and crypto can help me make more money if I can invest more. But investing in crypto needs to be careful because cryptocurrency has high volatility and the price always change so if you do not know when you should enter and leave, you will hard to make a profit.
5990  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What do you think about Baby Doge? on: July 06, 2021, 03:11:30 PM
Yesterday, as always, Elon Musk tweets again about a coin called Baby Doge coin. We saw earlier that he tweeted about Shib token and we can see SHIB is now  in 28 number position of coinmarketcap. What do you think about Baby Doge coin?  Will it be in a better position like Doge and SHIB? Does will Binance also list Baby Doge?

Elon Musk Tweet - https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1410529698497630212?s=19

I think Baby Doge is a good token for short time. It must be admitted that Elon Musk has magic, with more than 57 million twitter followers making whatever he says is trending, including the Baby Doge who skyrocketed even though it is now dropping again.
If you want to follow Elon tweet, you need to be careful because you do not know if that tweet really works or it is just to trick people into getting their money. If you already buy that Baby Doge, you can hope that token can increase like Doge and Shiba, but I am not sure if that can increase in a short time unless for a pump and dump only. I do not expect those meme coins except Dogecoin because Dogecoin is different from the other meme coins. Besides that, Dogecoin already has a long time history and although Dogecoin is a meme coin, it can give us a big profit in the future.
5991  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will BTC Go for Another All Time High This Year? on: July 06, 2021, 02:02:46 PM
The sentiment around here seems kinda mixed.  WO thread seems slightly bearish but I see people in other threads that are slightly bullish.  So..  for the bulls out there, do you guys think BTC will break out of its recent high of 65k USD this year?  If yes, please explain why.

I think that we will have another ATH this year.  As far as  I can remember the ATH last 2017 were recorded somewhere around Sept.  so I think history will repeat itself.  Aside from that the current dip is just some sort of retracement, eliminating weak hands in order to prepare BTC for another rally to hit another ATH before the bear season comes.
Hopefully, that can happen soon in a few months later, before the end of this year. If there is the next ATH, the price will be more than $64k and maybe that will be at somewhere in $75k-$85k. But it is hard to predict that since the bitcoin price does not break $40k and needs more time to wait for the price to start the rally. I consider that this bearish is the calm down moment because the bitcoin price is not rising too high or too low. The good news is we can still make a profit from the situation, although we are hard to analyze the time to enter the market.
5992  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Question for bitcoin traders !!! on: July 06, 2021, 12:40:18 PM
I like that quote and I agree with that. That is a psychological factor that makes us watch the price moves, which is happening to many people. But in this matter, we can learn how to manage that factor and calm down to see the volatility of bitcoin prices. Every investment has a target goal that we can achieve but if we do not have a goal to sell bitcoin, we will not make a profit. The bitcoin amount we have will still be in the bitcoin form, but you can make a profit and enjoy your profit if you have a target price to sell.

I will not always check the price but I will do periodically and if I see the price is good and I am okay with the profit that I will get, I will sell it and not trying to wait for more because there is no guarantee the price can still increase. If we can manage ourselves in trading or investment, we can feel satisfied with the profit.
5993  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Be a Responsible Gambler on: July 06, 2021, 11:39:39 AM
Sorry for your story man, gambling is not a guaranteed profitable activity, it is only an entertainment area !! I advise you to stay away from gambling activities and try to find work. Make a plan for your life again. Don't think about getting more loans, but try to count on yourself and work hard.
That's true it is really hard to earn money from gambling, a lot of people says that it has a 50% win rate percentage but for me you can only have 10% win rate, I never earn money from gambling so I have already done with it, gambling is only an entertainment purpose so the best thing for you to do is to focus on doing other things to make you money and stop relying your earnings in gambling because you will end up empty on it.
Many people realize that gambling is not a place to make money because they already lose their money to playing gambling. The chance for every people to lose will be different but losing the money will be the same. It is better to use the money from the loan to create a business because you will have a chance to make money from that but you need to pay the borrows money. Being a responsible gambler needs more effort and I am sure that we can do that, although it is not easy to start.
5994  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETH to $10K? on: July 06, 2021, 10:36:14 AM
I think that ethereum can reach that price. in fact, we've seen the price of ethereum reached half of it when the bull run occurred. anyway, I quite believe that Vitalik will do his best to develop ethereum at this time. it will certainly have an effect in the future. enough coins want to drop ethereum, it will push ethereum even stronger.
$1000 is not a hard price for ETH, maybe many people at this point think that thinking is crazy when the market is getting worse.
But what we should be looking at it is its potential and its importance, and I think if we were living in 2025 we would say it's an approximation.
You miss one zero because @OP saying about $10,000, but you write $1,000 Grin

Ethereum can increase to $10k, but breaking $5,000 will not easy as the highest price before still below $5,000. But if this year still has another bull run, it could trigger the price to reach $3,000 and so on. In the next 5 years, I can not imagine how high the ethereum price will increase because maybe the price will be more than $10k. My prediction for ethereum in the next 5 years will be at more than $7,500.
Yes mate!
For me if you look at what ETH has built in the crypto market it is really impressive, we have been following and accompanying it since the early days and now as we are moving to the new stage of the market. Our faith in ETH is very strong, to be more precise I feel that authority is sometimes better than bitcoin.
Until bitcoin can back to $40k, ethereum will not moves to the high price and will remain at that price but not increase or decrease too high or too low. Many investors still trust ethereum besides bitcoin and they are buying ethereum every time the price reaches the lower price. They are waiting for the next bull run for the altcoin because ethereum will also have a chance to increase if that happens.

I am a gambler in the past, but I am trying to reduce my time to gamble because I realize that does not give me a good thing instead of a loss of money. I do not want to become addicted person to gamble because that will be hard for me to solve the problem. I still gamble but not too often like before and just to fills my free time. Gamble or not, that will depend on ourselves. If we want to gamble, we can gamble without telling others. But if we have information that might be useful for others, we can share it with them to learn together what is necessary and what to avoid.
5996  Economy / Speculation / Re: The market is full of opportunities to come on: July 06, 2021, 08:33:01 AM
I still think that a rebound will happen to the market, but we are hard to predict when that will happen. The bitcoin price is down again this day, and it is back to the $34k level, which can lead to the other lower price. But if there a good news release, it can impact the price to go to the high price. This month is still not easy to predict where the bitcoin price will move, but we hope that this month will be better than before.

If you can use the market, you will have a chance to make a profit. Otherwise, you can just wait for that rebound so you can sell your bitcoin at the next high price.
5997  Economy / Economics / Re: The slave does not dream of freedom, but of being the slave-master on: July 06, 2021, 07:46:37 AM
We use cryptocurrency means, we have full control for our crypto and we will decide when we should sell or buy or hold or whatever we want. We become our own masters because we can manage it for our life. But unfortunately, right now, we can not do that because that will depend on the government regulations and they will not easily accept crypto because they can not fully control the crypto. But we have the power to control our crypto and as long as we can send our crypto to other people, we still are our own masters.
I think you misunderstood the question or maybe I misunderstood. I think the point made in OP was that, we see so many cryptocurrencies right now because people want to feel like the owner of the coin than the user of it. There are so many coins and nearly all of them serve the same purpose so why do we have them? I think one reason might be as discussed in OP that people want more power but the other basic reason is that people want more money and it's not possible to make the biggest amounts with other coins so everyone creates their own coin.

People love bitcoin for the same reason, they feel like the rightful owner when they have a decentralized currency. The same feeling cannot be achieved from a centralized dollar or any fiat for that matter.
Let's say I am misunderstood at this point. If that is so, maybe people want to have more money, and by having so many coins on the crypto, especially potential coins, they will have a chance to achieve their goals. Once they can achieve, they will feel become a master for their life.

We created our cryptocurrency to become a master for our currency because if we can use our crypto, we are not dependent on the other third party such as the government, which always wants to control many things. But unfortunately, the government still involved in this matter, so the crypto needs them to approve crypto.

We still become slaves because we can not use crypto to buy a product, service, or others without approval from the government.

By the way, after doing a little research, I got a few pages about that quote:

I guess the pandemic is still the number one issue among the other issues because it happens in most countries. But poverty is an issue that every country needs to solve. The pandemic makes many people lost their jobs and hard to survive to live. If people can not solve their financial problems, it can increase the criminal's percentage in all countries. But I think the government will figure out the problem and search for the solution.

The point is to be ready for anything that can happen later and if you want to follow your government, you should concern with your health by vaccinated. We all will die tomorrow or someday, but we do not need to worry because we can rest in peace in our graveyard as long as we can live better.

This pandemic will end soon and we still need to survive and to struggle as you say. If we still search for how to survive, we will get that way and will have lived until the pandemic ends.

I'm doubting an exchange if they are closing withdrawal and transfer in a long time because that is the time that they can manipulate the market.
Even this exchange is already last long in crypto market, i think right now there are a lot better exchange, just IMO
Although they do not close withdrawal and transfer, they can use maintenance for the wallet, which is a cliche. If they are really close to that, I think they will not really close it because almost all exchanges have Dogecoin pair usdt and btc and else, so they will not do that.

Sometimes, this attracts greediness from gamblers become bigger because they see the gap price is too big and they see the chance to make a profit there. But then, after they do something, they realize something wrong happen and they can not do anything unless just waiting for more and hope that everything will be okay.
