My take is also trading xrp by buying low and selling  high infact I  just sold off my XRP yesterday and took profits and also waiting for a dip. It is indeed a very tradeable coin. BNB has been enjoying a massive pump in recent days that is best bet of coin for hodling because it might likely reach $1K before the end of the year although I will have prefer those coins with smaller values who are in top 20 in coinmarketcap e.g ADA, polkadot, XLM and chainlink
XRP can still be a good coin to trade as long as there is a good volume in the market. I think XRP can rise more than $1 this year. I am interested in ADA, DOT, XLM and chainlink because I think these coins can compete with the others and increase.

For BNB, I think it can break $1k this year but I do not know when to see that price.

I never read any news from Yahoo Finance in regards of cryptocurrency, maybe my curiosity in stock markets at the least and adoption of Bitcoin lately.
But I don't solely look into it for mainly top coins to invest.
Why look into other news if we already have CMC?
I guess that can be a comparison to us to know what is happening out there. Besides that, we can know how people react to cryptocurrency. If they can see the growth of the crypto, people will try to join with the other people who already joined before. Yes, we have CMC but knowing the news from other sources can give us additional news.
6602  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Who among these altcoins can reclaim their previous ATH? on: April 17, 2021, 08:44:55 AM
I have a good feeling about ETC, XEM, NEO, EOS and LTC. But I think the low coin price can be a hidden gem like Dogecoin, so I think it is worth investing before the price rise so high. But as usual, you need to research for more before deciding to buy any coins you want because we do not need which coin will increase later. Besides that list, I am waiting for DGB, SC, XVG back to reclaim their previous ATH because I think that coins have more chances to increase the price step by step.

Low

Average

High

$13.49 | ~ 30 secs


According to this: https://decrypt.co/66569/berlin-hard-fork-live-promises-reduce-sky-high-ethereum-fees

Promises to Reduce sky-high Gas cost my ass.
That still too high for one transaction, but if the ethereum price is very high for about $3,000 or more, the transaction may make sense. But still, that is too expensive fees that the gambler should pay for playing gambling using ethereum. They will still use the other altcoin, which has a cheap transaction fee so they can play for some time. But let's wait for the next update from them because I guess that is just too early to see the fees now.

That's true, but based on the high rollers of different gambling sites myself have asked the same question. Why these People aren't prioritising investment. We can understand it, only when we get into gambling hard. The instant return is the major factor, which we can't expect with investment. However investing from the profit of gambling is always a better perspective.
Maybe they do not become interested in the investment so they only think about playing gambling and still want to win on the gambling games. Besides that, they think that if they invest their money, they will need a long time to receive the return and do not have the patience to wait. But if they can research more about the investment, they will see that the chance to profit will be bigger from the investment side than from playing gambling games.

Except for Tether, I think that list is good to invest for people, but they must research more to find the coin and not just invest without research. I doubt Ripple, but I will use it to trade if Ripple is still good to earn profit. People who work in the Economic field should be aware of that news and find out more about cryptocurrency. Cryptocurrency will reach more new user from many countries and that will make the mass adoption grows.
XRP still good for trading, just buy and sell, you can still make some money but if your plan is to hold for how many years, that is not the best choice of coin.

BTC, ETH, BNB are the best coins that we need to choose considering that our goal is to hold for many years. Holding for 4-5years, that we expect the price will not just it doubled but a triple is possible or even more than that. But still the market now still's at high, this not the best entry time for investment. Maybe we have to wait for a little bit while when the market just has the correction.
Yes, that is what I am trying to do because I still see the potential from XRP to make a profit by buying low and selling high.

For the other coins such as BTC, ETH, BNB is the best coin to hold besides trade because with that potential giving us profit, the price gap for that coins looks good to buy low and sell high. We already have experience holding 4-5 years so I think we can hold for more in the future because we can survive by holding that coins.

So before the coins price increase so high and make us late to buy at a low price, we should analyze and select the coin that we can buy and hold.

That's great, one more casino adopting crypto! And I, personally, don't think that conversion to USD on the account balance is bad, it's actually convenient in a way. If you gamble regularly and don't instantly withdraw all your winnings - it's good to get them fixed to USD, because with rapidly changing BTC price you actually risk losing money while it's on the website.
The gambler can convert their USD into BTC and send it to the exchanges or other wallets to hold or sell at once. Having the conversion to USD will allow us to see how much money we have to make a plan about how much money we will use to gamble. But that will not work if that gambler can not manage his money. We can wait for the next update from that and hopefully, that can also attract many gamblers to back playing on that place.
6607  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Wyoming legalized online sports betting - crypto wagers allowed too on: April 16, 2021, 05:25:41 PM
As others said, that is good news for crypto users, especially for gamblers who often use crypto to gamble. I guess the government wants to know who was using crypto to gamble and make a new regulation related to that news. Maybe the government wants to control online sports betting from their State. I think a gambler needs to do KYC on the online sports betting website and I think their bank account will be monitor by the government. I wonder how much the taxes that the gambler should pay regard to that news.

They just want to benefit on the popularity of crypto, as they legalize sports betting, they know that huge money will come from crypto space, so with that, they regulate and they make money at the same time. They cant' control anything that is not owned by the state, but they can always monitor them to comply with the law, especially on correct tax remittance.
It could be like that because maybe they see that the crypto is used in gambling and it can bring them profit since the crypto becomes more accessible and acceptable in many countries. If they can regulate it and cooperate with the local banks, they will know how many of their people often used crypto to gamble, and they can implement the new regulations related to the crypto. They can apply the taxes to people who use crypto to gamble, which means they will get another income from the gambling business.

Some players also believe in systems that are doomed to fail. Like playing strategies that they believe can only win in the end. If such a strategy existed, everybody would be winning all the time, but it can even happen in roulette that "red" comes up 15 times in a row. That's when irrationality comes into play and leads to severe losses.
I have those experience in dice games in a 5-8 streak, which confused me about how it could happen to me. But then I realize that everything can be possible to happen in the gambling game, and I only need to understand that if it happens again, I need to break for a while and do not continue playing because that can lead me to get another losing streak. I am glad now that I can handle myself better than before, so I do not get the same experience and always try to control myself. So limiting in gambling will be important.

Thats how most of the gamblers lost their money they didn't realize that their money is draining little by little for trying out each game so maybe if we have less money better not to do it and stay only on some games where we plan to play, this is little discipline for ourselves to not get addicted playing these risky games.
Yes, that is an old story from the gambler since a long time ago. They didn't realize how their money was gone in the casino, but if they could be wise to manage their money for playing gambling, they would not lose all of the money without knowing. I admitted that having discipline is really hard and needs practice to have a strong discipline, as you said. But that is worth doing by us to prevent the loss and the important thing is we can prevent becoming addicted to gambling games.

in pandemic time, the government will enforce businesses to help the country stimulate the economy. Biden already calls for an increase in corporate taxes and even individuals with higher income to pay more taxes and it's for the people as well. casino businesses will have no excuse not to help after all they have been supporting the local governments for a long time. i don't know if there are still people going to vegas these days but i can see pawnstar series is running on the history channel. it must be.
I do not know what is happening with the other countries but I think the other countries do almost the same thing. Their focus now is how to reduce the number of infected people from the virus and they want to help as many people as they can and always warn their citizen who does not obey the rule. But the help needs to continue and needs more support from many companies. We do not know how many casinos still open in this pandemic and I hope the casino can still help as they can.

If numbers of legal casino is open even if pandemic still happening well provably they can help but I don't know if there are so many of them open as I see in my country until now they are closed, also government cannot rely on those casino running online since there are so many unregistered so if they can get help from the taxes maybe only low amount only although this one is quite helpful but not sustainable in the long run as there are so many people need help.

If this disease will control and casino also others are opening back it can help to revive back the economy.
I think the government will have the data about the casino in their jurisdiction to know which casino that already reopen and which is still close. The government will give easiness to the casino to operate but they must follow the health protocol for their members. The taxes from the casino really worth it, and so do the taxes from other business. It still hard to control the online casino around their country as the casino can register using the other country to avoid the tax. As long as the government can still get help from many owner businesses, that really helps them recover and help people from this pandemic.

If the price you bought is lower than the current price, you can sell it for now to take profit. But if the price still lower than the price you bought, you need to hold for more. But if you believe that the project has a bright future and can increase so high, you should hold it and make a target price you want to sell.

It is always back to your analysis about the project and does not just follow others suggestion without research because that is your coin and you need to find out yourself.
6613  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 1 Million BNB Burnt today on: April 16, 2021, 11:18:49 AM
I am curious about what happens to BNB after the burn process is finished. If that can lift the price to the high price, that will be good for the investors because they will make a big profit and sell it and get their money back. But I guess the price will not jump in a short time because the market needs to adjust the price first before the price can increase. But if the price can increase shortly, that will be the time for us to sell and take profit.

Gambling should be intendedly for the sole purpose of entertainment nothingless because if you do make this as a source of income
then you would be fucked up.

Gambling for entertainment is the worst thing to do for average or casual gamblers. The only ones who are entertained to do gambling are those high rollers.

Gambling should be treated in a way of, do our best to win. That's why we gamble right? It's not fun losing and we will say, we can afford that loss. Obviously, treating it as a source of income is a different story and shouldn't be the reason why we gamble.

When you go to a casino with many gambling machines, you will want to try one by one of those games. You do not think about winning or lose because you are curious about the game and want to know more by playing. On the next day, when you know the game, you will come back and you will say to yourself that this time you will win. For the first time, we use gambling for entertainment and curiosity, but then the next day, we use gambling to search for the winning. At this time, if you do not limit your gambling time and money, you will lose all of the money without you can control it.
6616  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Devices used for Gambling on: April 16, 2021, 06:42:23 AM
So far the devices used are the more popular desktops, but I feel that desktops and laptops might be the same device right?
Basically the two devices will definitely be used at home more often than outside, but the votes show that if laptops and mobile phones get the same vote, I thought laptops and desktops would be the same vote, but I was wrong about that.
Well however, whatever device is used depends on the situation.
A computer is a device which we use only at home. A laptop is a device that we can use both at home and out of the home. A laptop and a mobile phone are almost the same, but we need to use a power supply for the laptop because the battery can not last long compared to a mobile phone. So a computer and a laptop will be different. If a person often to go out, maybe he will use a laptop and mobile phone, but not all of them will carrying a laptop just to go somewhere which is not necessary to bring a laptop, maybe he is just want to hang around with his friends, so he does not have to had his laptop with him.
The only disadvantage of the laptop compared to the mobile phone is the size. You can carry a smartphone in your pocket without issues and very discretely, but for a laptop someone needs at least a backpack and more carefulness as it can be easily damaged or spoted by undesired attention in public places, especially if the individual is going to gamble.
Yes, that is right. If you want to have less size, you can use Tab which is not too bigger than a mobile phone. If you do not have anything to do using a laptop, you do not have to carry your laptop everywhere instead of using a mobile phone. When I use a mobile phone, I can hide what I am doing so other people will not know and they think that I am playing mobile legends Grin

Hi everybody, I have about 16,000 USD.
But I'm very new this coin market. I need advice from experienced people. Because I'm so confused  Huh
Please inform me correctly
You can buy bitcoin for $10k, ethereum for $5k, and BNB for $6k and just hold it and not use it for trading. If you can learn the trading lesson, you can try to use a small amount from $16,000 to practice trading, and I think you can use $100 as a start. Trading can be your way to increase your coins amount or make a profit in usdt, but you still hold the other coins because you only trade for a small amount to learn more about trading. But if you do not want to learn to trade, then holding the coins will be the best for you.
6618  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bloomberg predicting BTC reaching $400K in 2021 on: April 16, 2021, 05:15:16 AM
"According to Bloomberg, Bitcoin is replacing gold “more abruptly” than anticipated. Quotes a price potential of $400,000 in 2021."
Only in December did Bloomberg declare bitcoin to be in a huge bubble.
Well, I admit that Bloomberg has always made major predictions along the long haul of bitcoin.  Lol.  I am very excited about this but it looks like 150k $ will be the first destination to break for this wonderful excursion.  It's good that the best is in bitcoin's favor.  The time we hope and look forward to is approaching.
But that will not happen fast as bitcoin needs to break every higher price from now on. Bitcoin price still below $70k and it still needs more time to break the next high price. Maybe $100k will be a break on this year but no one knows about that. We still have more than 5 months this year to have a chance for bitcoin to start another rally. So you do not have to worry and do not think that bitcoin is a huge bubble. We will see how high bitcoin price will increase later.
6619  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BTC price VS gambling on: April 16, 2021, 04:03:56 AM
you should not feel that way, using bitcoin or altcoins doesn't matter anymore, you are gambling your aim is to win whatever cryptocurrency you are using. If you are more concern on the price movement, then you should not gamble, just trade instead. Gambling and investing should be treated separately, just not to mess  up what you are doing.
If he aims to win using cryptocurrency, I am afraid that he will use too many amounts because he will not stop playing gambling before he wins. That will make him have a chance to big lose in gambling but if he can be wise and think for a while, he will think to use the crypto for trade or investing and not trying to use it to gamble. Maybe both gambling and investing need allocation funds that he should use not to impact his money or saving fund.

the thing is: there's no fine line, gambling and investing are really different things and should be treated differently.

If a gambler has an investor mindset he can have chances to suceed.
but an investor with a gambler's mindset is faded to loose a lot.
It is hard to see a gambler has an investor mindset as they want to make money. But not all of them will do like that because I am still sure that some of them will not just think about winning from the gambling games. If they can have an open mind about the investment thing, they will search for how they can have the investment while playing gambling.
