6721  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin 2013 and 2018 on: November 12, 2018, 05:59:29 PM
in 2013, the bitcoin condition that affected the value of bitcoin was very good, Germany legalized bitcoin and considered "private money", zipzap services increased the volume of bitcoin for 2014, 12000 restaurants in US received transactions using bitcoin, and ebay also received services for bitcoin transactions.

and that is a positive condition that can make bitcoin have a higher value, and in reality, bitcoin creates graphics better than in 2012.

and today, we see that many positive conditions, but do not affect bitcoin to create bullish, what happens with bitcoin?

In 2013 Bitcoins was limited to certain countries it wasn't global till 2016 end where it suddenly shot up in all countries. If you say 2013 you need to remember Mt Gox event also took place then, at least we have seen nothing like that now, also it's pertinent to note there was little or no fud back then, but now each and every media, government and big business owners have made a habit of spreading fud and bashing bitcoins hence the downfall. However soon all this will fade and bitcoins shall rise once again.

where the best way to buy Bitcoin?

Hey you can buy bitcoins in this forum in the currency section, I would recommend you use an escrow and see the trader recent feedback, one trader you don't need escrow is Zargareb he's trusted and he sells you'll find him there. Then you can check local bitcoins many ways to buy bitcoins, but there're many scammers out there, so be very careful see recent trades.

One important advice any newbie or a person who's never done such a sale here approaches you avoid or insist on an escrow you'll be safe then.

We seem to have a new leader!



Less than 2 days to go...

Apq7 has taken the top spot I knew it this was always bound to happen, If Akbar decides to continue wagering, it'll spice up the contest, and if a third contender comes along it'll be huge. I have said it before and I'll repeat it all the spots are open, we saw today even the no 1 spot being changed, so if you're waiting for a sign this is it. All the best people can't wait to see the end results, preety sure the table will have many new changes at the end.

Germany is no longer good now. therefore I suggest you to bet for Germany. I lost big when the Dutch beat Germany, I think Germany was able to defeat the Netherlands, which has been inconsistent lately. currently the good ones are Spanish, English, French and Portuguese.

There's no doubt Germany has been on decline for quiet a while, and much of the blame I feel points towards Loew he's not been able to galvanise them, and find their confidence back. It's pertinent to note that Germany decline has some effect in the form of Bayern Munich players too. England is one team to keep an eye for, i feel they lack the finishing touch, if their strikers improve they'll be a team to beat.

Verstappen was leading today and had great chance to win and then this accident happened:
https://mobile.twitter.com/F1/status/1061696911617404928
Occon tried to unlap himself but he hit Verstappen. It was fault of Occon, but on the other hand Verstappen didn't left enough place for Occon.
And after race Verstappen showed very unprofessional behaviour:
https://mobile.twitter.com/F1/status/1061716317231665153

It was sheer bad luck for Verstappen these things do happen in these high tempo races, however I feel Occon should have done better. I think Verstappen behaved immaturely, and I can't believe that the crew was just standing there. I believe he would have gotten away had he just exchanged words, but he laid a hand on Occon not once but thrice, and that's not acceptable at all he'll be banned and fined.

EPL: Man City vs Man Utd 2:1


Only 20 minutes left, bring my bet home Utd! Tongue I already lost on Bournemouth vs Newcastle, maybe I'll get this one just right.

Since Sergio's out it looks like City might as well be considering paying mostly defense to try and either settle or snatch a quick counter-attack for an extra goal. Hopefully Utd will do what they do best and keep stalling with almost zero potential for a serious attempt for the rest of the game.

I believe you already lost your bet when you placed it on Manchester United today, don't you know Pep record against Mourinho, and Manchester City are a superior team to Manchester United. The third goal has been scored and it's time to accept you lost your second bet too, Manchester City were absolute class, and I feel Manchester City win have moved them one step closer to being champions again, especially after Chelsea draw today, though it's time for end result I feel top 3 spots are sealed, Manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea, now the battle begins for the fourth spot.
6727  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will we have a good Bitcoin Black Friday this year? on: November 11, 2018, 02:51:07 PM
Looking at the Bitcoin price trend this year, we might not have such a good Black Friday this year.  Roll Eyes Last year around Black Friday, we had a Bitcoin price around $8000+ and we could stock up on the Xmas gifts, but this year is a whole other story.  Roll Eyes

So what are your plans for Black Friday?

1. Will you be hoarding?
2. Will you buy goods at a discount price, at a lower Bitcoin price?
3. Doing business as usual?
4. Offering Black Friday discounts as a retailer/merchant, even if the Bitcoin price is lower than last year?

I have not seen any big announcements or planning for some major Bitcoin Black Friday specials, so I presume everyone just assume that the Bitcoin owners will be hoarding their coins.  Roll Eyes

Let's share some thought.  Grin



Hey this year I don't expect any boom in bitcoins during Black Friday I'm just holding on to my coins for now. I'll see if an favourable opportunity arises will consider buying it, will give me a good average, but those who're planning to buy now I do hope you'll understand you'll have to hodl it for the long term. I think we may see some movements later on as we get close to launch of Bakkt but in the meantime I don't expect any further rallies.
6728  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: November 11, 2018, 12:02:22 PM
Chievo are the only team in the Italian Serie A without a win this season, Bologna are also battling hard in order to stay out of the relegation zone, and these two teams will play against each other in their next upcoming match, but I still prefer to pick Bologna as the winner in this match as the defense of Chievo is just too horrible, having conceded 28 goals out of 11 matches played is definitely not a good sign for Chievo.

Chievo form has been terrible this season, and I'll agree Bologna has a better chance at victory given that Chievo defence is in absolute shambles. I'm waiting for Ac Milan vs Juventus game, as Juventus will want to move swiftly on from the mid week defeat, and Ac Milan will appear to be confident knowing a victory is very much achievable since Manchester United have beaten Juventus. This shall be a very interesting match to watch.

It's that time of the year again: Retarded noobs panic selling because they saw some irrelevant news, be it some shitcoin exchanger hacked, be it some idiot holding a lot of bitcoins and selling, or be it anything else: it's time to buy the dip.

You can thank god or whatever that we are seeing sub $10k again. Once the obligatory retardation that happens every so often it's over, we'll be back up. Remember, limited supply, permanent demand for a decentralized uncensorable digital gold = price can only go up long term against scams such as any fiat ever.

Hey this is the sad reality these days people panic every time a news hits the markets, many of them do not even bother to verify it's authenticity, and they indulge in panic sale. In my personal experience if at these current levels you get a chance to buy then, it's best to dip in, and buy cause these are really affordable prices.
I'm expecting that bitcoin shall soon rally upwards as all the negativity has began to fade away, it's only a matter of time now.
6730  Other / Archival / Re: DarkStar's Free Sports Predictions | -1.66 units | 2W-1L-0P on: November 11, 2018, 05:42:00 AM
3 bets to start off:
Hungary Soccer - Ferencvaros vs Haladas | Pick: Ferencvaros -1 AH @ 1.88 | 5U Stake [L]
Rugby Union - France vs South Africa | Pick: South Africa ML @ 1.58 | 2U Stake [W]
Handball Champions League vs Wisla Plock SSA - Elverum Handball | Pick: Elverum Handball (+4.5) @ 2.09 | 2U Stake [W]

Yesterday went somewhat decently, though my overconfident pick lost which put us at a loss with -1.66 units. Hopefully today will do better.

Serie A - AC Milan vs Juventus FC | Pick: Juventus ML @ 1.78 | 2U Stake
EPL - Liverpool FC vs Fulham FC | Pick: Both Teams to Score No @ 1.77 | 2U Stake
CS:GO WESG - Gambit Esports vs Mantegos | Pick: Gambit Esports (-1.5) @ 1.64 | 2U Stake
ATP - Anderson, Kevin vs Thiem, Dominic | Pick: Anderson, Kevin ML @ 1.91 | 2U Stake

One loss and two wins is a decent start I would say, what I like is this thread is transparent and is kept simple for all to understand. I think Ac Milan should not be discounted though their form has been sloppy, they may feel confident knowing Manchester United did beat Juventus in mid week, it should definitely add much needed spice to the match. I expect Liverpool to score lots of goals, not sure if Fulham will score, but will be interesting to see if you get it right. I'm surprised you have choosen not to play on the Manchester derby, there's yet time I do hope you'll put up a prediction for that, and good luck for your bets will keep an eye on this thread.
6731  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin will be replace by ALTS in the future? on: November 10, 2018, 02:19:06 PM
Hello guys! As usual my habit is to check this website https://coinmarketcap.com/ for crypto market price. I saw that bitcoin still dominate in the market.

Take a look in this picture.




The Bitcoin Dominance recorded is still at 52.3%


This is why Bitcoin is the most expensive crypto in the market. But, there is one thing also that struck me and that is the growing number of crypto in the market.





It was recorded at 2093 cryptocurrencies being listed in coinmarketcap and does not include some crypto that are not listed on coinmarketcap for now. So many cryptocurrency to choose from so brace yourself on what crypto will you should consider to contribute or invest.


Bitcoin vs. Altcoins



I get this graph from coinhills (https://www.coinhills.com/statistics/volume-bitcoin-altcoin/) that shows the trend chart of Bitcoin volume strength versus Altcoins. A great number of altcoins combine will soon going to surpass bitcoin and remove its dominant in the market and probably few crypto will dominate in the altcoins group in the near future.

The question is that: Is there any possibility that dominant altcoins will take over bitcoin in the ranking in the future?

No the alts will never over take from bitcoins, even with them running in hundreds they can't beat the popularity that bitcoins get. It's pertinent to remember that bitcoins prices will always recover, but once alts crash they take years to recover, for example look what happened to bitcoins cash. If you see adoption wise people prefer to have bitcoins in a trade deal, only few other alts are accepted, hence I don't believe alts will take over bitcoins.
6732  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: wondering what wallet to use?(long term) on: November 10, 2018, 12:11:05 PM
Nowadays, There are so many wallets for you to use but not all of them are safe. To what i know, hardware wallet is the safest wallet to use.

I would recommend Electrum wallet if you're not storing a major fortune, then Electrum wallet should be your first choice. In my experience I have found it simple and easy to use, it's secured and safe plus I like the fact that they have a mobile app for it to. If you're planning to store a huge volume then I would suggest a Trezor wallet it's the most secured wallet out there.

In a news related to Rafael Nadal's injury, it was reported that a exhibition match in Saudi with Novak Djovovic is cancelled because of his abdominal injury. Well his knee operations will take weeks to heal at least so there's no way for him to really attend this exhibition match anyways.

Saudi exhibition off due to Nadal injury, says Djokovic

It's sad to read all these news about Nadals injury, he's having lots of injuries issues lately, but yet he manages to come on top always I appreciate his never quit approach. I'm hoping he comes stronger, and fitter tennis just doesn't seem entertaining without him. I can't wait to see him come back against Djokovic and Fedderer those are some epic battles and makes you fall in love with tennis.
6734  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cristiano Ronaldo's next club betting on: November 10, 2018, 05:18:48 AM
oh god, I lost big. I actually thought that Ronaldo would end his career in MLS, but now he plays in Juventus.

I don't even understand why you would think he would go to MLS so early he's just 33, he's a brand and can yet score 25 - 40 goals per season. I thought he would return to Manchester United or PSG, but it's true Juventus did stun us all. I expect him to last one more season and then he'll end up in mls I'm sure it's David Beckham team that he'll join.

Get your wagers in so you can win your share of the 2 BTC prize pool!

There's been some nice movements it's nice to see Boxxob in the top 5, yet strongly feel all these spots can change, and with each passing day you're only loosing time so make your move now. I'm sure in the last 2 -3 days we should see heavy wagering, I hope some of the winners are from here, these total amount of wagers are huge by the way and it only shows how popular Bitdice is, this competition just keeps getting better and better.

there still seems to be conflicting reports , one claim his body was found, others that it wasnt ( so he would still be officially missing )

I'm not willing to believe he is dead until the police verify the body found was his," a former friend said of Creighton.  "I can see him showing up at the office tomorrow announcing he's back as if nothing ever happened.  Wishful thinking I suppose."

I really wish this quote from one of their family friend comes to be true, one quick search shows the police and family are making sure no one knows about whereabouts to his body. I can understand they're trying to understand what happened and catch the people responsible for it, there's a mention of a Porsche showing up, I'm not really sure what's that got to do with the murder, but this link says it could be his car, I don't think there's been any fresh updates since then.

Hey guys, what do you think, can we be strong, and overcome this hard times when everything is red? How soon we will finally see bitcoin growing?

This is preety normal from where I see it, what you're worried is the short term probabilities, but stick around for long and you'll understand that there's no need to worry. There's slowdown in all asset classes, stock markets, and so on it's a phase and all we need to is wait to see at what price it bottoms down too, and then you'll see quick recovery as in the long run it always recovers so simply have faith and hodl on.

The second ODI match between Australia and SA starts today. I'm interested to see if Australian can bounce back and put in a better performance then they did in the first game. This is a vital match for Australia as it could make or break the rest of the series and maybe even the upcoming test series with India. I just want to see Australia put up a fight today.

Australia in a lot of trouble right now. They are struggling at 142/4 after 29 overs. Enough of this. I believe that they should recall Warner and Smith. They were the top two players and the team is not the same without them. 

Australia struggles seem to be never ending, and there's hope, for all those who wish to see Warner and Smith back in the team asap. I had predicted that before the Indian series there will be calls for them to be included, and now it's all over in the media there's pressure on CA to recall them asap, it'll be interesting if they buckle down in pressure and get them back in the team.
6740  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2016/17 on: November 08, 2018, 05:59:48 PM
Real Madrid is not a team that has any lack of funds to improve neither, they could get the best coach and pay them handsomely and get new players and all that, they are capable of paying the most money compared to any other team in the whole world. I don't really know where all that money comes from honestly but they have been known to pay a lot of money for people.

However, seeing how Ronaldo is still playing amazingly for Juventus I tend to think someone with Ronaldo's condition maybe could have been kept for a little longer, even until retirement, I was one of the people who said they got rid of Ronaldo's contract at the right time both not having to pay him but also getting money in return which could be used for younger good players but I have seen them do nothing major so far. Zidane is missed in Real Madrid more than Ronaldo I assume.

Real Madrid president made the grave error of losing Ronaldo and Zidane in one go, then he even didn't bother getting Hazard or Neymar to help the new coach settle in. Real Madrid should have dumped Bale and Benzema and retained Ronaldo and Zidane, Bale is struggling due to his injuries, and Benzema is no longer feared anymore.

I expect them to add one or two players in January and spend heavily in the summer transfer market either Hazard or Neymar one of them is coming I'm preety confident on it.
