I never thought that only strong people could play Roulette.  Perhaps if someone feels and more fortunate, he will have confidence in his own strength. In any case, each of us, if he loses, never retreats, but thinks over his mistakes and tries to repeat once again with the best results.  Perhaps this is called excitement in the very birth of each individual.
Excitement for people who can control and not to fall into addictions, if you can continue relaxing your minds and enjoy your game being positive will
help you out to think more optimistic and your calm minds can lead you up to think much clearer for much safer gambling.

It's the positive thinking  inside your brain that will allow you to keep enjoying and feel the excitement of winning.
62  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: The best investment prediction for 2019? on: July 02, 2019, 03:33:55 AM
The post created in the last of 2018, and I think at this time, the Bitcoin still be the best crypto for long-time investment if you have more money to invest in. Otherwise, BTC and EOS will be the best altcoins to invest, but that altcoins still suitable with short-term investment.
since long ago, bitcoin has always been the best investment. it's just that the price is too high, making people look for alternatives to it, and I think many altcoins have good potential in this matter. maybe ETH can be a good investment this year.
one of those factors why investors move to Alts due to the current high valuation of Bitcoin, they move and look for other alternative which also have same potentials, it's all about getting benefits and make some good earnings while you are still working with your opportunities inside the market.

Even tho I think Iggy is just fine with it he might be on his few years of his career and trading him into Memphis with a higher payout is just considerate in my opinion considering also the fact that we actually do not know how things would work for the GSW having D'Angelo Russell on their team.

He signed a 3-year contract during 2017 summer. He should be in his final contract with the Warriors next season but they need to dump a salary in a sign-and-trade with the Brooklyn Nets. In other words, Iggy is the only tradeable valued player in the Warriors.

But watch out for the twist that might surprise us again! He might not end up in Memphis Grizzlies but in.....

Wait for it...

Lakers? Lol.

I read that LA is very keen and interested on getting his services. So there might be few movements around Memphis-Lakers right now that will send Iggy with Lebron and AD in the gold and purple jersey next season, so it's going to be interesting if that turns out to be true.
Wow, read that Twitter joke when he say something about KD's trade, not realizing that he will be a part of that but I'm positive if he will land to Lakers as he will play with AD and LeBron his talents will be test adjusting with this two superstars.

Don't know how the twist will be but anticipating while the season is not yet been started can be done by anyone right now it's still rumors that's needed to be waited.

You should know that alt coin is a very risky investment, and its only being used for speculation and trading,eventually the investors will dump alt coin and back to bitcoin, if you see the market is not too good for alt just cutloss, because once it goes down it will be hard to bouncrle back, and stop playing with alt if you dont have the basic knowledge about crypto
Stop playing when you are not fully equipped as this market is really risky for impatient traders, you'll lose your money if you don't mind looking for a good reason why you are here and continue your investment, you have to be specific when placing your money.

Bounce back will be there when  you are willing to wait for the market to bring you the rewards that you expect.
65  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to keep your funds secured? on: July 01, 2019, 07:03:13 AM
Im quite new to crypto so i wanted to know what exchanges do you use and i'd be grateful for advises on security. I currently keep my crypto on localbitcoins but it recently got hacked to im concerned for my money. I want to move it somewhere safe but still be able to make trades without much fuss. Im still learning to trade but im pretty serious about it. Can you recommend me a good exchange that hasn't been hacked yet?

Keeping your coins in exchanges is the worst thing to do. You never know when these exchanges go down. It has occurred quite frequently, starting with Mt Gox in 2014, to the recent hacks of Bitfinex and Cryptopia. Why do you want to keep your coins in exchanges, when free online wallets such as Blockchain.com are available? If you don't mind spending $100, then you can go for a hardware wallet as well.
If you can get a hardware wallet then go for it, storing your assets inside the exchange will always worry you for potential of losing your investment, always think before you go to any decisions in regards of securing your money inside this industry, remember that it's your money that you are securing.
66  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Pundi X - Any store can buy, sell and accept Cryptocurrency on: July 01, 2019, 06:30:28 AM

I think there are altcoins with new concepts and innovations that can be even more profitable. 

That will be possible if the project is hype, people look for success in short term also so they will buy a hype project.
Ideas on a project can easily imitated, and even if a certain project have launch it first but they are not guaranteed they will be successful.

PundiX is a good project, I don't see any similar project with a big vision like PundiX, however, we cannot force the kind of success that we have in our mind when the project has not matured yet.
Talking about PundiX certainly doesn't need to be doubted because it is a project that can be said to have a bright future but indeed we have to wait for the project to be truly successful
Always need a lots of patience with how the market for this coin is showing right now, it's need to have more investors and more supporters to lift the price up, without any support the value will keep this level and interest from newer investors will be delayed, there's a need for the team to work things out so while doing the progress they will also attract more investors to help.
67  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Where to invest my $1300 USD? on: July 01, 2019, 06:09:57 AM
If you pay attention to the price level in the spring of 2018, that Bitcoin reached 12,000 dollars, and ethereum 800 dollars.  If we compare those figures with the current period, Bitcoin has almost already exceeded that line, and now it’s a turn for ethereum.  But the ethereum today is still hovering around $ 300, and if you now invest in the ethereum, then perhaps the price will soon be worth more.
I also think like that. in fact I also collected more ETH than other assets. indeed there is a possibility that the ETH price will rise again. even a price increase of up to $ 700 will make the holder really benefit. I am sure this will happen this year.
Yeah right if you have a good look with this coin then investing will be rewarding after some months of holding, ETH will soon to pumped higher than that since the last time high is really gives a lots of profits from those traders who manage to invest in and trust this project, taking the risk and wait will bring a best chance to earned decent rewards.
68  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin ATM malware on: July 01, 2019, 05:54:28 AM
Probably that's a scam, there is no reason to believe that it's legit since I don't hear any news yet that ATM machines can be infected with malware.
If you guys hear any news regarding this, correct me and educate me please.
The sale thing is a scam don't know if the atm machine do as well but buying around dark net chances will be a lot bigger to be prone being victimized, best to stay away from this types of offers it will be a waste of  money. Though there's always possibilities also that malware can be injected but it's still best to stay safe from this.
69  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: LTC halving on: July 01, 2019, 05:41:40 AM
At the beginning of August, there is LTC halving. Does Btc and ltc move together or does ltc increase independently?

I still do not feel any frenzy about the Litecoin halving and its looking a bit dissimilar to what it was the past time. Or maybe it's too early to judge. Secondly, both btc and ltc are quite independent despite the fact that ltc traces back to btc but then it's still an altcoin

Too early to judge, in my opinion. Although past performance does nor equate to a success in the future, but judging from its past halving, LTC did quite good, to be honest. Other's have said that LTC is going to die, guinea pig for its big brother BTC, but so far it is holding on its own. So personally, I think something big will happen after the halving and it might go near or even top its previous all-time-high.
Hard to say whether the market will be boomed away after the halving but like what you've said there's always chances there's supporters who wanted to take the advantage and take the risk of investing,  there's an open opportunities you need to make your move and take the step bringing good value to your invested money.

Dallas Mavericks fans out there;

Porzingis signs max deal with Dallas
As expected, 7-foot-2 unicorn Kristaps Porzingis agreed to sign a five-year, $158 million max deal with the Dallas Mavericks. The Mavs traded for the big man from the Knicks before last season's deadline.

The considered Dirk Nowitzki 2.0 will now be alongside with young Luka Doncic. I'm hoping for several seasons now that someday I will see them back in Playoffs.

This is good decision by the MAVS, they are building young talents to lead the future of the team.
I believe they have a good future together but I cannot assure they will enter in the playoffs next season as they are still young and experience is a must.
The next season will be the best trial period for this two young bloods whether they have a good bonds playing alongside, Luka have the qualities being a star he can bring the team to the next level as long as he will play and dictates inside the court, together with Porzingis Mavs have a good chance if they will create good backups for this two Stars.
71  Economy / Economics / Re: Is cryptocurrency help to expand the world business? on: June 30, 2019, 12:58:40 PM
I would not mind seeing the interest of heavy industry in Bitcoin transactions.  The price of Bitcoin today really would give the opportunity to transfer large sums of money in a big business and, moreover, the speed of transactions would be much better and higher than bank transfers.

If a lot of companies would be willing to accept it, that would be nice.

Fast transactions can be done with some fees and that would be great since there will be no third parties involved like banks. Just imagine these companies having quick transactions making their jobs more efficient. But if that is the case then they might have a salary using BTC, and I don't think some of their employees would like that.
well, fast transactions will make work easier, and of course developments can be looked forward to because of this. many ways to do that. many people use bitcoin, or altcoin to expand their business. well, the example that can be taken is Facebook, which will soon release Libra coins.

That participation will bring more use of this crypto industry, as many businesses will see the benefits of this system and will also consider to adopt for widely used around their business, if being used and widely being recognized many more new additions to this market will also be attracted and also take the steps adopting crypto for their own benefits.
72  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Lesson from bear market on: June 30, 2019, 12:42:10 PM
A bull market is very popular because it does not have identical zones, it changes very often and quickly.  and if you bought last time during this period, you should think about this period.  Is it worth doing?  because the market is changing at the speed of light, because you always need to be safe and think ahead.
If you want to be safe and not think about how quickly the market is changing you just need to buy bitcoin and hodl it.
A very easy and convenient way to invest and not to have any stress with this industry, you'll  be able to lessen or avoid risking your money if you can just buy and hold Bitcoin or other Alts that you really believing that growth will happen after some time of keeping it inside your wallet.

73  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Season on: June 30, 2019, 12:22:54 PM
If they get Kawhi the championship is a lock for the Lakers.  The superteams never end Shocked
Whaaat? so this rumor is becoming of the buzz now. Super team but it doesn't mean that they are too good enough to become the champ for this season. An example is Houston Rockets, they are considered as super team last season.
There's a huge difference between the Rockets and the Lakers superteam (if Kahwi joins). That Lakers line up plays hard on both ends of the floor and can move the ball well unlike that of the Rockets.

It also boils down to the coach itself, Mike D'Antoni is know for his offense as well, that's why we could say that defense just take a back sit from Houston's page. And that is why James Harden has been called for years for being a mediocre defense himself because of the system built around Houston.

And that is also why they cannot win the a NBA Finals.
That kind of strategy of Mike D'Antoni never worked. He had done it with the Phoenix Suns using Steve Nash as like the James Harden by now.
They went to Finals and Steve got 2 season MVP's but yet still short. Why? Defense.
Defense wins a game.
Leonard have defense.
Draymond Green have defense.
The San Antonio trio is almost a pure defensive team add up when they had Bruce Bowen on their team.
The Pistons won a championship also because of defense. I remember back then when the Pistons play. If the score doesnt go beyond 100 points then it will be a Pistons win. Grin
A very good example is Michael Jordan. He took that Most Defensive Player as if telling all the players that it is their defense which made them win a lot of times.

A pure offensive team cannot win a championship even if they put all the shooters there.

I'd pick Patrick Beverley, Bruce Bowen, Draymond Green, Kawhi Leonard and Ben Wallace rather than: Steph Curry, Klay Thompson and add all the shooters here.
You just mentioned MJ the very man who's been hailed for being the very best player of all time, he's not only after for scoring but he also showed that in this sports both sides needs to be evaluated, he can score at you most of the time and he will also be there to give a good stop defending you to score back.
74  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What's bitcoin worst case scenario if Libra will be successful? on: June 30, 2019, 11:47:16 AM
No it won't destroy btc, bitcoin is a decentralised coin people loves to invest in decentralised coin, although the popularity of libra claimed to be big but we can't be sure it can beat bitcoin, for me the existence of libra will light up the crypto competition which will be good for the users
No it wont. May be facebook credits become a popular service it can live side by side. Overall it brings more curious minds into the crypto space.
It will open up the minds of those people who are not yet been inside, Bitcoin will continue to be the number one crypto not even Libra can penetrate and remove that, though there's also space for this new project to be successful since it will cater those who's not really familiar with crypto currency.

Libra is for centralized while Bitcoin will continue being decentralized and be used by people who are well aware with how crypto really works.
75  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bull run 2019-2020 on: June 30, 2019, 11:20:21 AM
This, in my opinion sucker's rally is taking much longer then I had anticipated. If it won't fall any lower then a 50% correction from here, it will be my loss.. I sold at 7k after buying BTC in december. I still hold half of what I bought, but I'm handpalming every day I look at the charts. The grow is too quick for it to be substantial in my eyes.. But the bull run is near or, but not likely it's already here..
The rise that happened so quick and the market still on it's state of getting higher attention from the wide masses making it's way to be well recognize and be supported by bigger businesses that will also caters and invest inside the market.

Bull run for investors who able to catch the price in the beginning of this year and still holding and trying to maximize thier profits.
76  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Not all bounty hunters do research on projects on: June 30, 2019, 11:02:00 AM
Not all bounty hunters are reward-oriented and follow without do a research to the projects they follow are legit or not. because the users who always do a research before joining campaign are not oriented to the reward value but the success of the project.
Those are very wise as they are not after for quick reply profits but for the long term benefits that the project will bring them after the project being released, though there's a lots of bounty hunters who are not paying attention with this and always aiming for quick benefits and in the end of the projects most of them get nothing.

Do your research and make good assessment with every projects that you'll going to support and invest your time.
77  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What is going on in the market? on: June 30, 2019, 10:54:25 AM
In my point of view, market is going to be stable and the price is increasing little by little. The price of bitcoin is touching $8721. These price increased pretty good in past few months.
almost the last two months were the most active in the cryptocurrency market, since during this period the prices for the rating of a new cryptocurrency almost doubled.  I mean Ethereum and Bitcoin.

That means there is a progress, for me to keep track the real progress this year, I would consider the start of the month as the basis.
Based on my computation, bitcoin and ETH had already triple its price this year (correct me if Im wrong), and I don't see it will stop here, I believe more surprises will come as we enter in the 2nd half of the year.
If we are speaking about the pumped this current year yes mate the value rises up to that level and if that will continue then expect to have more come in terms of price high, market is really moving upwards even there's some sway you just need to work on it and keep tracking for best outcome.
78  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is Investment better or saving? on: June 29, 2019, 04:18:05 PM
Investment is better if you know what you are investing than saving since your money won't move if you will just gonna save it. Investment may be risky but if you know how to handle the risk, the outcome would be great in no time.

Rules number 1: Never ever invest in something that you don't understand even if it's too good to be true. Understanding the basics is important because when things get ugly you know how to deal with it.
Even saving up money doesn't really free you out from certain risk and as being mentioned you can potentially be hit up by inflation.

In result it would put your fiat savings into useless one.Diversify everything if you do have the chance but all things should really be done on a
systematic way.
Should be done with good understanding so it will be beneficial for your save money expecting to have good growth when you will do it with good efforts and knowledge.

It's good to invest instead of saving your money from the bank and let the company enjoy with your savings, but it's needed to have a good overview of your target investment, plan well and expect to succeed.
79  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: bitcoin and alts on: June 29, 2019, 04:12:39 PM
the alt storyline is different from last 2016, right now alt looks that much trouble in balancing bitcoin price movements, I think this is a difficult situation for alt. alt struggles harder to compensate for bitcoin and this takes time.
this time will come. I think that at the end of the summer we will see a strong movement in the market of altcoins and everyone who now holds their own altcoins and don't want to sell them - will earn a lot of money
Chances to earn is always there for investors who can wait and hold their assets, the timing should be according to the best value of the Alts or also bitcoin that they're holding, you can keep investing keep adding more and more while waiting for the good time to harvest your profits.
80  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: should i continue trading ? on: June 29, 2019, 03:59:26 PM
I think you just need lots and lots of practice, trading can be very stressful and hard but with the right knowledge then you’ll be able to gain profits. If you have to research again ask advise from professional traders then do it, don’t let your experience now make you stop, just continue to learn and you’ll be good soon, just apply all that you learned.
It's a rollercoaster ride you'll enjoy it when you already have a good understanding, but if you are still finding the right combinations of strategy it will be hard and a rough journey to travel, you can keep trying if you still have the desire achieving success but if you think that you've done enough maybe it's the best time to look at the other side of the this business, it's not for everyone.
