Sorry man i do not believe new exchange because i am always happy in old exchange like binance kucoin and gate. Personally i am very impressed binance exchange because they have more high secority with big market place.

People are sceptical to go for the new exchanges unless it is known or backed by some of the big players. We have seen in the past how exchanges have lost coins either due to lack of security or in name of scam have made people poorer as they have lost the hard-earned coins in such exchanges. So always better to trade or keep it in safe exchanges for the ones which existed now from the long-time and also have a good review.
622  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What would make you stop gambling? on: March 21, 2020, 11:37:19 AM
For me, gambling is not an option for making money, so only things related to my core values can stop me.
If for some reason gambling can interfere with my life, my family or my health, then I will stop immediately.

This is really so sagacious of you that you are aware of what is good and bad for you. We need such more gamblers in the market who play it as a game not as a sole source of income ruining their lives. Indeed, these things that you mentioned shall be priority of everyone and they shall not be risk at all.

Greed is something which will make people do anything in spite of knowing what is good and bad. Only people with good will power and self discipline can contain themselves from falling under such situations where it will not be difficult for the people to put stop when the need be unlike those who get addicted and find it difficult to stop or just cannot stop and lose out a lot of things including money, health , relationship etc.
623  Economy / Economics / Re: Can corona virus or any other epidemic disease can collapse Banking? on: March 21, 2020, 06:53:34 AM
I doubt it very much.
The fact is that if it were a banking system exclusively in the physical world, then perhaps a reduced number of contacts from the system could somehow affect its operation.

However, now we can see that almost the entire banking system goes digital.

From this we can conclude that an epidemic of this kind will only accelerate the transition of financial systems to the digital environment.


The future is digital and not all counties have the facilities and infrastructure setup for going digital . In fact in rural areas of many countries still lack basic facilities and internet not their . Only developed countries has this and may be developing ones have to an extent rest still people have to go to banks to withdraw or deposit and for other transactions. Hopefully it would change in due course .
624  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Physically vs Gambling Online Using Crypto on: March 21, 2020, 06:27:55 AM
Gambling physically can be lots of fun. Most casinos I know serve you free food and drinks while you play which makes you play even more. Seeing hot girls around makes it better too. You don't have that kind of traits with online gambling. Sad

Maybe the excitement is because we can meet many people in one room, and we can talk with them while we play. I watch that on the movie, but I never try by myself Grin

While you drink and eat, that can trigger you to become drunk, and you can lose control of yourself, and that can lead you to lose your money too. So be careful.

If people love to be alone or do not like to meet and talk to people then for them it is going to be online casinos as it is best for them as they can do it from anyplace at anytime . On other hand if you like to interact with new people and enjoy the ambience and with friends then casinos are the best place where you can enjoy the game along with drinks and some beverages as well .
625  Economy / Economics / Re: Which Asian countries have the greatest influence on bitcoin? on: March 20, 2020, 05:14:54 PM
Japan and South Korea, as far as I know, is a country that has the greatest influence on Bitcoin, these two countries have an influence on the development of Bitcoin and Altcoin... while India, China, and Indonesia, as far as I know, are the countries with the most Bitcoin and Altcoin transactions.

Japan could be a leader because it was one of the few countries which very early had adopted bitcoin and had made it legal in their country. this has definitely made other countries to think about it and how best it can be utilized for their country and among the people. Also, countries would be looking to check how it can help the economy and banking services etc


626  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is like day trading ? on: March 20, 2020, 05:11:46 PM
I assume that gambling and daily trading are different things. Because in gambling can sometimes spend money faster, different from daily trading for example. Because we can control the trade and in that case can also benefit. I play gambling, mostly losing compared to winning.

For me both are different because in trading you analyse both technical and fundaments and then accordingly can place the trades on but in gambling you do not have such options as many would be your luck-based games. Also trading requires skills which not everyone can have it just like skills required in card games. Gambling would not be approved in all countries, but trading is legal in all countries then be it stocks, commodities etch.

627  Economy / Economics / Re: a disease or a virus or is there business in it? on: March 20, 2020, 09:57:10 AM
at this time many entrepreneurs are experiencing losses. but indeed not a few people who can use this condition to reap profits. we can see health equipment such as masks and hand sanitizers that most people hunt for, even basic needs are being bought in to anticipate the worst. many opinions about the antidote, but there is no valid and recognized by the world

If considered most people who run businesses, or anything related to it are affected due to this virus spread and due to closure of their city or being lockdown. The demand will definitely be going down in coming time a swell since quite of few people in job would be hit due to this slowness. Also share markets have fallen badly and people might have ended in a heavy loss if they have sold their stocks. Only handful of people who are in business related to such health services may be gaining it rest it’s a sad story.
628  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: March 20, 2020, 09:53:00 AM
hopefully we will have IPL in June if this is possible any comment about this from any Indian?

Not possible...

Or at least tough call as almost every team has packed schedule after May so i don't see how BCCI could do that. Aus, England, SA, Windies all playing international cricket so it doesn't make sense.

Reading the situation till now and aftereffects it seems that IPL may be cancelled as scheduling later in the year would be not really a feasible as other countries have their already scheduled tournaments. So they would not be cancelling it because of IPL. Now if they still want to go ahead then quite possible that few good players may not be available if they are already playing some matches with other international team during that course of time. Or else IPL may be just of shorter version where only 1 round happens instead of 2 and finish it quickly by keeping daily 2 matches.
629  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: March 19, 2020, 05:03:38 PM
I think I need to start downloading all the movies those I were planning to watch from long time and fill up few terabytes of external hard drives with the downloaded movies.
I suggest binge watching TV shows on Netflix and Prime instead like me in recent times. These are the shows that I have binged recently:

- The Witcher TV show
- Elite
- Sex Education(Twice)
- You
- Umbrella Academy(Currently watching it) etc

Netflix and Prime are enough even during an apocalypse in my opinion.
You have many choices sadly I have to concentrate on very few things for time pass as these are not available here Sad

People will find it difficult in this phase as many things are shut and all gaming events are being cancelled or moved for a later date. Also many are lock down so finally everything needs to be done at home. This is a good time where one can introspect and spend time on them self to see what they want to do ahead and spend some quality time with family members and children. Can speak to all the friends and family members from whom you may not be in touch on regular basis. Learn some cooking or so if one does not know.
630  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Things you shouldn't do when gambling at casino this time... on: March 19, 2020, 10:47:19 AM
~snip

Sadly, I can't really do this on casinos since all of the casinos and other places like malls, and even some restaurants are closed because of the pandemic that is happening. I don't know if the governments in your country already ban casinos or other places because of the pandemic but it is for the good of the people. Though it is really boring working at home, we can't really do anything about it.

I think majorly in all countries they have started or already barred the people from the entry in order to avoid meeting many people. So many palaces the casinos would be already shut and people cannot go there. Places where it is open, people should be avoiding at this time and stay away and try to follow the basic like taking precaution while sneezing, no handshakes, clean your hands regularly etc.
631  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: If Coronavirus never happened on: March 19, 2020, 10:30:19 AM
What will be happening right now if Coronavirus never took place to drag down cryto market due to economic affection? Still down thread or bullrun will still be kicking
I think the market price will be stable. The cause of the price drop is the said virus. It makes the people to sell their digital currencies including bitcoin that is why sudden dump happens. They need a money for them to be able to sustain their needs because they are being quarantined and the work stopped.

The prices would have not fallen to this level and would have traded at around 9k levels or so which it was trading before the fall. Also, this is an opportunity for people who always wanted to invest or keep on investing regularly to buy during the dips time as in future it is going to rise back again, and people would make money if done the investment during the fallen markets.
632  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: CORONAVIRUS IMPACT ON SPORTS GAMBLING on: March 19, 2020, 08:13:55 AM
Of course this CoronaVirus has a huge impact to the sports gambling because as we can see that almost all of the games in sports including the NBA was cancelled and that means that the nba gambling will also have an cancelled because of this happening so there is really a huge impact to the gambling sports so all of us gamblers are hoping that this corona virus may end as soon as possible.

This has a tremendous effect on all the business including on gambling. Also, people would be little bored now for those who are student or now working because they used to watch the sports or gamble on any sports event which now would be very limited only. As majorly all the big sporting events has been cancelled or postponed and nothing much left for the viewers to get entertained watching those sports and now they cannot even bets on such games.

633  Economy / Speculation / Re: Notorious Bear Tone Vays: 90% chance $3,800 was the low on: March 18, 2020, 11:21:17 AM
If the coronovarius is going to keep warranting serious responses such as limited social contact and going out only to buy food then most worldwide stock markets will keep on crashing (and what we've witnessed in the past week was just the beginning), and they will take Bitcoin with them. Maybe the halving will be a fuel for a little bit of optimism but I'd be prepared for the worst.

Corona is only delaying the growth of bitcoin by a month or two.



The things may more get worst as now in this week there are many countries which have started to report the cases more significant and fastly then the previous weeks. Also, in coming weeks this numbers may just multiply if proper care or vaccine not found quickly and we may see more and more panic selling happening considering the past as how market reacts to some news etc. But it is always a good time to buy on the dips and it would be resolved in coming time as not here to stay permanent.

634  Economy / Economics / Re: Corona has killed economy of many businesses on: March 18, 2020, 09:24:40 AM
In fact, the situation is very funny and paradoxical. Typical mass hysteria organized by government apparatuses of all countries.
Mortality from the coronavirus is only 1%, but already a large number of countries have closed their borders from each other. This will primarily hit the pocket of ordinary citizens

The difference between the previous virus and this is that previously the viruses were not spreading from human to human as far as I have read and heard. And this virus is different because it spread from person to person which is more dangerous and that is why it has being put under pandemic. This is really getting serious as many cities are getting lock down and due to which majorly all business worldwide has taken hit already.
635  Economy / Economics / Re: Start investing so you can quit your job and retire early. on: March 16, 2020, 05:30:11 PM
In order to invest you need certain preparation an education on what to invest and how to invest, you can not start investing just like that.
You need to plan out everything before investing because in just a snap, your money might be gone if you put it into a wrong investment. You can also try to seek the help of the experts and try to ask them about the factors that you should consider before investing.

It is very vital for everyone who want to invest first to understand the business mode in which want to invest the money . Secondly always have a backup ready so that you have an exit way ready if the need be . Thirdly allocate properly so that you do not put all your eggs under one basket . Fourth start at the time when market is down which is the best time to invest when others are fearful .
636  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why there are so many people who get addicted on gambling? on: March 16, 2020, 05:12:56 PM
There are so many reason why a person would get addicted to gambling.
We have those who gets thrilled and those who sees it as an easy way to get a big amount of money,
We also have those who gamble to escape some problems.

One major factor that causes the addition to people is beacuse of the greedy behaviour as everyone wants more and easy money . Gambling is such thing which they think can help in achieving the quick money but chances of making such money is not that easy and in order to make such money they keep playing under assumption that sometime they will make big money and in process they get addicted to it and cannot leave it when they wish too .
637  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ways to recover from being addicted in gambling. on: March 16, 2020, 07:11:54 AM
Addiction is a disease and should be treated with serious caution.
Definitely. It is a serious problem among gamblers. Every party should contribute to support the way to recover the addicted gamblers. Not only their family but they also need helps from their close friends, experts, and neighborhood. If the addicted gamblers have been at a severe level, they must visit professionals or experts of mental health regularly.

If the person is genuinely want to get away with this then I think everybody will support him/her as nobody would like their own person to get into gambling and spoil their own life. Only thing is that one should not be cheating that on one side show as if not into gambling anymore and on other side continue to gambling beacuse once this is known then no one will believe that person and no one will even care to help out to overcome from such addiction .
638  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you stop gambling in a time of crisis? on: March 16, 2020, 07:08:03 AM
Indeed, we should tighten up our belts and restrict ourselves on buying unnecessary things (at least for now) because we can't predict what will hapoen on next couple of weeks or months. Good for us if the virus will be eradicated faster but what if the scenario gets even worse? We will have a fund shortage if that time comes. This time, whether we like it or not, we should disciplined ourselves and set aside our addiction. But to be honest my hands are getting itchy now Grin, I might say that I will make a deal if one of my friends ask for a friendly bet lol.

This is a time for us to be little cautious as world economy is in turn moil and it will have a ripple effects in coming time . So each cent saved now is each cent earned and this would be useful during the time of requirement . Anyways casinos now are out of question as to avoid public places so it’s only online which people just have to avoid it and this would be also useful for those addicted people who wanted a reason to either curb gambling or want to reduce the frequency .

The way Watson and Manzoor batted it took away the game from Karachi Kings as match started to become one sided after each over. In the end they registered the very easy win by 5 wickets and 22 balls to spare. Nice to see that Watson is still capable of playing a match winning innings and has some cricketing skills still left in him.
640  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: March 15, 2020, 01:14:17 PM
I am a bit worried about the new schedule of the IPL. Mid-April to May looks fine, but if it gets delayed any further, then we'll be in trouble. Because the monsoon starts by the last week of May in South India (Chennai, Bangalore.etc). There is a very good chance that the tournament will get delayed further. And if that happens, the BCCI will be forced to shift it to UAE or South Africa, as it is not possible to conduct the IPL during monsoon season.

BTW, I was told that there have been a lot of sudden interest coming from the gamblers in the Namibian franchise T20 tournament (Richelieu Franchise T20). Apart from the Pakistan Super League, it is the only cricket tournament ongoing now, and as a result a lot of the cricket gamblers are making their bets on these matches. The Namibian officials are really surprised, as the tournament was virtually unknown outside the country until a few days back.

One thing we may have to understand here that before devising the IPL matches the safety would eb considered as a top priority of players and all those coaching staff etc who is directly or indirectly involved during such big leagues. So considering the things have started to rise in Asian regions it is quite possible that it may not even be delayed overall it could get cancelled because hosting in another country could only be possible where their is 100% surety that their is no COVID cases which is not the scene unless in between we have anti dot available and the pandemic suddenly sops then only we could see some light.
