Improved performance began to appear in the last three matches, Chelsea managed to win over Fulham and Burnley, in their last game they also managed to force Arsenal to share the points. The positive record in the last three games will be motivation for Chelsea when facing Brentford, victory is their main target to improve their ranking in the standings. Chelsea must maintain its performance to reach a better position. I am still skeptical that Chelsea will be able to align themselves with the teams in the top four because the competition in the EPL is increasingly competitive, but Chelsea still has the opportunity to reach the Big Six position if it is able to maintain its performance.

The fans not me are overwhelmed with Chelsea October performance, they have so far draw 1 win 2 which is great, if they have the same momentum in them Brentford should not be a big task for them to accomplish, they should use this match as a compensation for drawing against Arsenal instead of them to keep tight to win them, it will be great having +3 because it will boots them directly to top 6.

Pochettino should use the same formation he used for Chelsea against Arsenal in Brentford, in all the matches they have played, this is the only match they had more short on targets, all were from the striker and the midfielders and they foul less, unlike my Arsenal that were fouling all around. This might not be the complete remedy to win Brentford but I love the way they were prepared for Arsenal match, they can equally do the same to win Brentford with clean sheet.

could you ever bet millions if you had it?
No.

I honestly do not risk too much into bets when I gamble. It's something I do for fun to test my proficiency in predicting a sport I love to watch, staking excessively will take away a chunk of the fun. I'll rather stake low with the chance to win a low reward, than risk a ridiculous amount.

- Jay -

I lost my cool yesterday as Newcastle spoilt my plan, entire ticket was loss because they couldn't get a single goal yesterday and then for a minute, I paused and I was like, how much did you bet on stake? That's when I realized I was reacting. Grin Now, imagine if u stake a large amount of money, no matter how hard I try not to lose my cool, I wouldn't be able to hide it, now I wonder how this man has the courage to bet a fortune, this is gambling abuse.  Undecided

Unless the guy launder money through gambling, I don't think any sensible person will bet $10M on a game, it doesn't make sense. Why has he not been trending like drake because anytime that guy stake 800k to 1M, the internet especially the netizens go high and says a lot of things that he will go broke, this and that's but this guy don't, or maybe because he is na celebrity.

I don't know how big money is to some people but to be honest, $10M is too big to be use for gambling, amount that can buy a startup company, I don't want to say how much that amount is in my local currency but if I have such amount and I decide not to work for 40 years, I will live good life. But MR.man lost everything to gambling, lord have mercy.

I must be honest if emery is far better than pochettino in this case. He was able building a great club with limited budget unlike chelsea's coach which has spent billions for nothing.

I am also disappointed with the results obtained by Chelsea. Maybe the Chelsea scouting team thought that Pocchettino had experience coaching big clubs and that was what made them trust him. This is the fault of the Chelsea scouting team because I think they don't really do their job well.

I was happy at the end that Arsenal put a good fight and equalizes at the end of the matche, Chelsea slack in the second half but please give Pochettino some breathing space. It's not easy to play against a team like Arsenal to lead with two goals, I expected Arsenal to flog them by a wide margin but regrettably, Chelsea were in place and every player did a team work contributions and that's why they had two goals earlier in the first half.

Pochettino might leave Chelsea sooner or later because I don't think he is in full mode to give Chelsea what they need of him. The entire team, the assistant manager and coaches, and the manager need to be replaced. The mistake Pochettino did during the transfer window was keeping some of the new signing thinking they are going to do a better job but theynare just bunch of garbages that were very price because of World Cup performance, Enzo in particular.

They do insist on the same names way too often when they shouldn't and that's the problem with Erik Tan Hag. That dude has his " favorites" in the club and keeps playing those players and he had some players that he wanted to buy as well and he did that, on top of that no matter how good you may look or how good you may play during training, you are not going to get that chance. Thats their problem, the manager doesn't care how good you are or how well you can be, he has his 11 in mind and as long as they are all healthy, he will keep on playing that 11 no matter what. This of course sometimes causes them to not play with the best 11 they have, and end up with a bad result.

IMO, this happens in every teams but I think Ten Hag options are too obvious that he is been selective when it comes to choosen of players, if Maguire happens to be in another team I'm not sure if he is going to be given second chance the way he had it with Ten Hag, but I'm impressed for how he turned out still.

Ten Hag need to work on his relationship, he can't hate all the players and be picky when it time for selection. For instance, look at Sancho situation nothing positive have been out from the day they started the misunderstanding, there are players but the available ones relationship is not solid but they don't point this out any time the team lose match.

Thinking about De Gea and Manchester United I think Manchester United made a huge mistake by releasing De Gea because he is a coach who achieved many titles with Manchester United and I think instead of going for other players.
I think there is a high chance for Manchester United to send an offer for De Gea again but the best he can do is to reject the offer.

De Gea contract was over and I don't think there is nothing absolutely wrong in letting go of De Gea but the mistake I thought they had some weeks back is the replacement, I wasn't too confident about their choice with Onana as the new lead goalkeeper but looking at their last two matches, I daft my hatt for him because Ten Hag said he needs some improvement and he actually did improve and help the team.

I think there are 2 reasons rich people gamble, first they gamble for fun or they are endorsed by the casino platform. For E money, I think he is doing endorsements to encourage people to gamble on the gambling platform he uses. You can see how eccentric and flashy his clothing style is, it really describes an influencer who endorses a product. He even dressed like a Muslim, which I thought was quite funny because in Muslims it is not acceptable to gamble.

The fun part is what I think of them, majority of big men gamble for the fun of it and most of the time is when they hangout, you see them around table playing blackjack because it's a casino game for the mature and not all these Dice machine, they see that as kids stuff. Whereas for Emoney, he just decide to do sports match using Arsenal for attention.

If this is not endorsement, there is nothing closer to it because I know his is an influencial person, people will does as he said. If indeed he is trying to show his bet for Arsenal, he can juts simply cutout the place that display the sporty bet name but he didn't, if people or the fans should see the name, they will certainly want to use the platform, hence the power of influence is working, this is nothing but promotion.
 
Lemme assume the game hasn't been played yet .. he's not being confident cus he's staked that high - that hasn't proved any confidence one bit... He's only staking high cus he's so fucking rich and there's a little to what he's gonna lose if it doesn't cut...
Mind you, that might also be a way to promote the casino since he's actually a celebrity... If not, why's he asking everyone to bet alongside?... I wouldn't feel any different assuming I was active when this was posted.

Sandra 🧑‍🦰

You mean that amount is high? I don't think so. There are sporty bettors I know since day one that gamble more than that amount and business wise, they are not half wealthy as emoney is today but they gamble everyday and makes life though gambling. Perhaps you can say that was the amount he was allowed to be used for promotion just to bring people into the platform and also send message of betting responsibly.
706  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: He Used Our Wedding Savings to Play Bet on: October 26, 2023, 06:04:04 PM
  Hi guys and ladies, here comes a very sad and heart-breaking story (true life confession) of a young lady who was contributing money (saving money) together with her husband-to-be (fiancée) in preparation for their wedding. The story in quote ..
Even though i don't know this young lady in question personally, i felt true pity for her after coming across and reading her confession, i know how important weddings are to women and for the fact that she herself joined the man in saving, and even contributed about 60% of the entire funds they managed to save, shows or showed how committed she was to see that their wedding takes place, but unfortunately, the man gambled the money away, what could be more heart breaking than this?

I have had to laugh out loud seeing the headline but on a second thought, this is not funny. This is nothing but a pure wickedness, a man that doesn't have a lovely heart, a man that doesn't care how others feel about him is the only person capable of this stunt. This is cheating and stealing because if really the lady contributed 60% and the man had the audacity to used the money to bet, common this is bad.

Another thing is that, the woman is having the desire to get married on time because she donateed more than half of the money, where I comes from even if the lady is the one trying to get married on time, the bill and responsibilities of the wedding lies on the man and not on the woman but here reverse is the case.

She better thanks the man foolishness for using the money to bet, because if in the end they get married, the marriage might not last, the man will gamble all the money in their saves and they will drag and drag eachother and later divorce. It's sad but better this way.

Most of the grown up people do not live with parents. At such, the parents are not aware about the interests and habits of individuals. Do you parents know that you gamble ? What was their first reaction towards your gambling habit ?

Just last week here, when I went to a grocery store to buy things. I was hearing a grown up man was mad on his call and from the conversations, seems the money he use to sent to his son finish even before the month end and from calculation the upkeep should be enough to last him for a month despite the high cost of living. The money should be manageable for two people talk more of him that stays alone in school. After a while, the dad called back and say he knows that he also gamble, his sure that some of his money always go to betting.

These are part of challenges that parent face with their children that are not working class. How can you be gambling when you don't have a source of income while having school responsibilities, it's very bad of them. I'm not an addict that gambles all the time and I don't inform my parent as well because I'm not a kid and I'm not under anyone's roof. I believe if you don't ask anyone for money, they don't have the right to poke nose into your private life affairs but when you are under them, then they need to know.
708  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: October 25, 2023, 11:36:04 AM
Previously we could have predicted the direction of the game, Real Madrid would win at Braga headquarters based on experience in the UCL and the quality of the two very different teams. In this match, Vinicius performed well and was the mastermind of Real Madrid attacks. Even though he didn't score, Vinicius contributed greatly to the two goals scored by Real Madrid.
Bellingham also played well, he began to find his sharpness after not scoring a goal when Real Madrid were held to a draw by Sevilla. This victory gives Real Madrid a great chance of becoming Group C champions and will potentially have easier opponents in the round of 16.

Champions League alone is an avenue for some clubs to be known, if not for the League I might not have heard of Braga for once. Experience matters a lot, Napoli has been there, Real Madrid has been there, Union Berlin were there too but Braga has never and as first time, it will be difficult job for them to escape this group stage, most likely they will not. The two teams I'm looking upto to graduate from this group are Real Madrid and Napoli to the group of 16.

Some club signing happen like magic and luck. Who would have thought Bellingham is going to be a beast for the club, higstest goal scorer in Real Madrid domestic League and still dominate the Champions League for the club but he is worth  the amount he was bought because Dortmund are very good in rasing good players. Haaland was the same last time and he did extraordinary for Manchester City.

These two players were the ones who managed to save Manchester United from bad results and I think that even though up to now both of them have often received criticism from fans. Thanks to the extraordinary performance of these two which was the key to victory for the Red Devils, at least it was able to reduce all the ridicule thrown at them. We know that as the home team, Manchester United is having difficulty scoring goals and I am quite pessimistic about whether last night Manchester United would fail to secure another point. But who would have thought that the hero would come with a header using an assist from Eriksen and he was the former Red Devils captain, Harry Maguire. Suddenly the supporters complained about his name and because of that, Manchester United would no longer be embarrassed at home.


No amount of pressure should change your goals and plans, this is what Maguire and Onana has displayed in the past few weeks. Onana in particular, some United fans were so disappointed in Erik Hag because they want to see result quickly, not knowing that sometimes, good things take time. I'm not even sure if they remember the team was like that last season but they forget how he transformed them quickly. They will do better and I'm glad to see Maguire respect is coming back gradually, maybe they will not sell him again if he continues to help tackle the team defense system.

I think the competition for golden boot this season will be tougher as Erling Haaland is yet to score the number of goals he already had by this time last season. Yes we all know the impact KDB brings to the squad but in his absence Haaland will have to find his way around if he want to be in the golden boot contest, Son of Spurs is already proving to be a competition for Haaland this season.

Haaland PR don't have time to ginger the Premier League, they are more focus now on the Balon D'or they know he will not win but they must push, by the time they see the end that he comes second after Messi, they will come back and push him again to tap in. Grin

Honestly, I can't feel his energy like last season, man was here and there making ways for Manchester City but it seems Son and Moh Salah are ready to take this lead together with him this time around. I'm interested in how Son will go far because him and Salah has the same 7 points, but he is the best 3 that has not scored a single goal from penalty. That's how you know play makers and those who loves taping.


De Bruyne got injured after playing the first game in the Premier League. Since then Haaland has scored 7 goals in 7 games. He even made a hat-trick in one of those games. Therefore I can't say Haaland has been having scoring issues. People must be expecting to see the same Haaland from the previous season I assume.

But to get that version of Haaland indeed De Bruyne is needed. They have had a wonderful chemistry that Haaland scores even more in his presence. But even for now I can say Haaland is doing quite well. I expect him to score against Manchester United at the weekend.

Haaland actually had 9 goals in 9 matches with 1 assist so far in the Premier League alone. But there is a problem in his consistency. His relationship with De Bruyne is out of this world because as a midfielder, he makes sure Haaland is never out of ball, Bruyne is very good and reliable that's why Haaland had more his goals in the last season but now it seems the absence is not only stop De Bruyne from playing, it's also stopping him from having more goals. I hope he recovers cover quickly.

James Maddison enjoying life with Tottenham and is enjoying the way he plays on the field  for Tottenham.  It was a good decision to leave relegated Leicester City for a much better club.
He should have moved to a bigger side though,  how many years will he be playing for Tottenham and how many trophies can.be won by Tottenham.  He should have moved to a higher club. The money used to get Kai Havertz should have been used to get James Maddison.
The same with Man City, money used for signing up Kovacic  should have been used to sign Maddison. The both club have been good and adding a talent like Maddison would be big.

Leicester city might be a unlucky to be relegated out of the Premier League but it cannot be deny that Leicester City brought Madison to lime light, it was because of the club contributions he was able to marinate and shows his capacity, that's why they were able to buy him from Norwich City £23 and sold for £46 even after using him for 5 years.

He has done well to sincere, 5 assist and 3 goals is a lot for a starter in a club, no wonder Tottenham are everywhere jubilating like they have won the Premier League already. This was how Arsenal took the bull by horn last season to surprise everyone until they later end up in the second place, maybe Tottenham hotspur will do more better this time as they already occupied the first place.

Actually it's possible. Take a look with Ronaldo who left Manchester United, Manchester United become a bad team like Chelsea. Ronaldo joining Al Nassr, he make Saudi Pro League become bigger and keep being discussed by many people.

Messi left PSG and it make PSG's social media lose a lot followers. PSG only have Mbappe right now, if he leave, PSG is nothing different like FC Porto, mostly dominated in domestic league and has no chance to become a champion in Champions League.

I am not sure what you imply by Ronaldo leaving the club and Manchester United turned to a bad club, wasn't it after he left Rashford change his winning mentality or you just want to give all the credit to Ronaldo? He wasn't having it cool with Erik and that's why he terminated his contract peacefully. He even knew it was the end the moment he grant that interview to ridicule Manchester United of their bad state of Gym and the likes.

This have been discussed few times before and someone have to do it again maybe often, for those of you looking to become a gambler what is your motives behind it? To make money? Or to have some fun? Here is my advice to everyone of you.

Why not treat casinos the same ways like you are going to the movies or bowling? You are simply paying for the experience and the entertainment, it's either you enjoy it or you may not, can you feel me? You don't know how bad a movie can be until you watched it, so....

Casinos, either online or offline, isn't a place to win money for the 99% of people, but this same group of people want to confused or already confused themselves that they can make money gambling, this isn't the proper way. It's meant to be for fun and not so serious like your life depends on it.

If you want your life to goes on with ease, learn to be a fun gambler and not too dependent on gambling, this is what gets people f**ked, the reality of gambling is you win when it's not even expected, be a responsible gambler.


I beg to differ.
They are both fun but one is more social friendly than the other, no matter how you put it, casino is a place where people hang out to make some money while movies is pure social hangout where nobody will ever complain of what you come to do.

When I went to watch match, the way I get to entertain myself in a movie night is different from the I get entertainment in playing bet. Haven't been to any casino before but I have visit bet shops back then when gambling weren't really online, the likes of Betnaija and Nairabet in those days where fun to do. The feelings I have experienced over their actually is different from the fun of movie night.

I hope you do know that you can take your babe along for a movie night bit you can't do that when it comes to gambling like casino. If you go to play in a casino house, all your attention is going to be there unless you are a professional gambler but in a movie night, the atmosphere will be quiet, when you have pop corn and Pepsi, you forget about making money but in gambling, no matter how you try to swerve from the money aspect, you will want to make some money, give or take your attention will be there.
712  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will Bitcoin EFT income reach BTC 100 thousand dollars? on: October 22, 2023, 07:31:31 PM

In the early days of September, well-known cryptocurrency expert Lark Davis commented that the approval of the spot Bitcoin ETF could increase the price by 350%. Matrixport, the cryptocurrency platform of Chinese billionaire Jihan Wu, compared Bitcoin to gold and predicted that the ETF approval would trigger a serious increase in value.

Is ETF Approval Already Priced in?

Analyst Joe Edwards from Enigma Securities stated that if ETF approval comes, this will only bring a short-term increase in value and then the Bitcoin price will fall. Edwards stated that the recent fake spot Bitcoin ETF approval news gives important clues about how the market will react in the event of a real approval.

 Analysts at K33 Research are of the opinion that in the event of a real confirmation, there could be an increase much higher than the reaction seen after fake news. However, they added that they expect a serious decline if spot Bitcoin ETF applications are rejected.

Do you think it will really be 100 thousand dollars? What happens if it is?


Blackrock controls more than all the top stock and shares in the world today including Vanguard and if Bitcoin spot  ETF eventually get approved, it will become more speculative than before and more elite clubs will want to take over bitcoin as well. There is nothing bad in that but I see this as more centralization coming to bitcoin if bitcoin supply is trapped under Blackrock.

Again, because they are prominent and big organization with large share holding doesn't mean we should expect more from them. We should not forget that the same Elon that bitcoin price to 58k sold some at some point to raise some emergency fund. Don't be surprised if blackrock pull stunt in the future, so your price is possible but what is the degree of pushing price that much only for it to fall later, hmmm.

As a holder of bitcoin, it's your expectations to see it grow to anything in value but having a specific price in mind can be disappointing. Don't listen to anyone predicting this imaginary price of bitcoin because if it doesn't later happen, you may hate yourself.

If we know for ourselves that we can get a profit from it and that it helps our lives and supports our family, I think even if we get tired of it, there is no reason to stop it. Why should I stop if this is becoming an instrument for me to live and be able to provide everything I need?

There are many reasons why other traders can't just leave it because of the decentralization that really exists here, and it's actually an opportunity. Also, if you have a deep understanding of trading, you won't be bored in the end, even if we say that sometimes we feel tired.

No man ever get tired or bored of a place that embodied money. There is this spirit money has, so long people go there and make more money from it, the same people will go and they will still come and with time, more people will troop into it because a soldier leave, another comes the barrack remain the same the way it is, there is no change in it.

Look at Warren Buffet and his billions, man is retire but he is not, by that he may be physically empty without strength but he has a team that does the chase for him, he had a team that continue to hunt for money just to complete his aim despite all the billions he has gathered all this year.

Trading is not boring, also is bitcoin. Just last week, there false rumour of Blackrock having it's ETF approved and then bitcoin shoot up, lots of market lonher lost money and shorters made money but today, it's the reverse and that's how everyone makes money from every opportunity because it is non ending activity.
714  Economy / Economics / Re: Is the fall of Elon Musk's empire imminent? on: October 22, 2023, 06:53:43 PM
There's a lot of talk that Elon Musk taking on huge loans to buy Twitter could backfire massively on him as Twitter keeps losing value. Essentially what Elon Musk did was to use up most of his assets in terms of stock like Tesla and SpaceX to try and secure assets for his twitter loan. He's now so tied up in this Twitter debt, that if something goes wrong it could trigger a domino of effects. 

So he essentially already pledged tons of money to secure loans to buy Twitter, but his executive decisions lead to massive drops in value. Late last year he posted a lot of Tesla shares to avoid a margin call from banks that had loaned him to buy Twitter but this could potentially mean that if Tesla shares fall in price also, Musk could be losing his empire... Eventually, and potentially if things go wrong, losing his position as CEO in both Twitter as well as Tesla.

What are your thoughts on this? Is Musk about to lose it all?

I think it's okay to say that Elon Musk is at a level where Tesla stock has achieved a maximum satisfaction for it's some of his shareholders, maybe most of them. I remember how back then when Tesla stock becomes the new trend in town and most discussed assets as he quickly become too richest person in the world. The growth looks too pump and now the stock is experiencing a decline or better as economics refers to retracement and correction.

One of the place I think he made a mistake or should I say over confidence is over relying on Tesla stock to grow more just as he was doing back then and using that as a collateral the loan he secured was really at a bad state of health. Despite selling some for cash, it would have been better if it was another asset entirely.

X is now at the stage of new development and that's because he is doing anything to remove bots activity to the bearest minimum, so expect some ups and downs with the growth but for I don't really think X is going to be a problem under his care, he will sort it out as he did when Tesla was facing challenges back in the days.

Nigeria as a country depends too much on importation and that is why they're always affected by any little spike in the dollar. Anything that affects the dollar, affects the naira.
If they can be able to produce most of the things they consume then the dollar won't have the same effect it has now on their currency.

Aside from that, the demand for Naira is very low and that can reduce the price of a currency.
Foreign investors do not feel safe investing in a country with very high government debt as is the case with Nigeria.
The increase in the inflation rate is also another factor that devalues the currency.
Then there is the political instability of the country which has always been present but got worse since the election they had this year.
All these are a few factors that have made the Nigerian currency drop and at this rate, it will keep dropping against the dollar.

Nigerians doesn't just depend on importation that is making the naira currency to lose its value, it's because Nigerians in general all want to hold dollar to hedge against the growing inflation the economy is printing everyday. Just October here, on 4th to be precise, Naira to a doallr was trading around ₦994 to ₦1005 but I was able to buy some ₦995, it wasn't much but I did have a profit on it because if you have have bought ₦1,000,000 of dollars, you should have around + or - $1000 and if you are to sell that back into naira today, you should have roughly ₦170,000 profit. Isn't that amazing and sad? This is what everyone in nigeria are doing to survive, everyone are trying to preserve the value of their currencies with dollar because nobody knows when this madness is going to stop.

When people don't believe and trust the government, you continue to have unstable economy and that's the situation of the country, we are battling with food security, human security, no employment. All these problems will continue to show negative growth of the country and negative growth means weak economy and weak economy means less valued currency.
716  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: KuCoin Launches Futures 2.0 on: October 21, 2023, 01:15:35 PM
I would not get excited with the announcement and wait for the user experience to happen first. There had been many such false claims by other companies in past and they all proved to be futile. So, we can not say that this time also the exchange will live up to the expectations based on the declaration they have made.

Even, if we see based on the popularity of exchanges, there are many other better options like binance which have proved themselves to much secure and practical for crypto users.

If you are indeed waiting for users experience, you may have to wait till next year when halving begins. The reason is that even if users were to use this new features, it wouldn't make any difference between this and the old one because the workload is the same, the same users and the same coin, little to no stress. The only way you can determine all the features listed above is when the traders stressed the future exchange and that cannot happen now in bear market, we have to wait for bull run to test the scalability.

I would admit that this thread is supposed to be on exchanges board for proper discussion since kucoin itself is an exchange, i don't use the exchange but if the improvements aimed were fully implemented accordingly, then this is going to bring for more use of this exchange from the crypto communities, what the people want are improved services over time, and with these nee features, they are going to also record some recent changes as improvement towards the use of their exchange.

I'm of the suggestion that it should be move to trading discussion, as the discussion is more specific on the future trading but anyone the OP decide is fine.
Kucoin use to be every trader favorite because of altcoins they listed, big exchange like Binance and Okx don't give this opportunity to retail traders and small money bag but the mandatory verification sent lots of traders packing to another exchange. The good thing about the future is down is very difficult to see people complain about their downtime in futures. Binance literally had downtime many time when they launch their futures but kucoin hasn't for ones that I can remember.

I don't know why they updated this now, or probably they are getting ready for bull run, who knows if they are expecting twice number of users from the last bull run.
717  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which old coin do you prefer? Litecoin or Dogecoin? on: October 21, 2023, 12:42:59 PM
Among the good-old coins listed on the market today, which one do you prefer the most? Litecoin or Dogecoin? The former is often used for serious cross-border payments at a fraction of the cost, while the latter is used more for micropayments/tipping. Despite these differences, it's no secret that DOGE is faster and cheaper to use than LTC itself (Dogecoin's block time is lower than Litecoin's, while market prices are cheaper). I'd choose both as they're tried-and-tested blockchain networks with decentralization and security/reliability in mind.

What would be your pick? And why did you choose that coin in the first place? Your input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Smiley

The two aren't good choice of selection. One is old freight people are halving to revive it's price since after it's first all time high while the second is been pump by Elon influence. Even when he just sneeze and mention the name, the bag holders will use that as advantage to pump the price for their own advantage.

Litecoin is deflated a car that need bitcoin infleuce to ride. They just completed it's halving about a month a go but it seems the coin hasn't been itself because lots of people that bought before the halving sold few days before the halving and immediately after the halving, that means there is no strong believe in the project. If the halving is really significant, they should be up by now and not below whereit is been traded before the halving. It can go up when bitcoin halving approached, your best choice is now.

Dogecoin, the master of memes of all. The propaganda coin that need hype to grow. I'm not sure what is going to be the new wave of his growth but the whales behind this coin always find something to push the price. You can buy this and join the speculative environment of Tesla, they always believe doge and Telsa will have a great relationship in the future. Grin

It must be noted that if this coin has been making a big event for airdrop hunters yet the airdrop reward has not been distributed. It's caused by there was also vesting period implemented by the developers. The price is slowly going down again after it was getting massive pump.
I have some friends who participated in this airdrop and they were being eligible for around 1k ISLM coin. Im sure that the price will be dumped so hard once the unlocked token will available to be sold by the hunters.
I remind you that if the supply of this coin is also really big at this moment. It can also become another factor why this coin will be dumping in the future.

There are still many tokens locked this time but as per the schedule if the more tokens to be unlocked gradually.

I was so pissed to a point that I thought ISLM marketing was turning to daily spam, my twitter, my instagram and facebook, they literally occupied everywhere but look at their price today, they seems like the usuall ICO token that promises heaven and earth in another life but when you look deeply, they are just another typical ERC-20 usual token that are launch everyday on Ethereum and BSC.

It seems there has also been a lawsuit that was file a week ago by Dubai virtual asset regulatory that they don't know and don't have any relationship with ISLM. It seems that the teams were using Dubai residents and prominents people to push the token for marketing before the launch and trading which was misleading because that is impersonation that could even bring down the project in the future if the team were to be investigated, no wonder the price has been crashing.

In addition, the token is basically listed on 4 exchange, $2M volume with a fully dilluted valuation of $4B, if tokens were to be unluck, I doubt if the two exchanges are going to able to handle that supply, the price will further slide down.
719  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Correlation between buying and selling of bitcoin: Is it a technical methodology on: October 21, 2023, 12:01:45 PM
For the time being I have joined bitcointalk and also the bitcoin market. I always hear that, when the market is buying there will be an increase in price of bitcoin and when it is selling there will be a decrease in the price.
My question is that, what makes the price go up as people are buying and the price goes down as people are selling because what I understand is that this action cannot increase or reduce the quantity of bitcoin available, so what action actually makes it to increase or reduce in price, is it the marketers, miners or who does that? Is there any technical reason behind that actually?
More clarification on this will be appreciated.

Miners don't determine the price of bitcoin nor the marketers, it all about the demand of bitcoin and the available supply of bitcoin.

You need first understand that the bitcoin maximum supply will not exceed 21 million, that's has been the basis of the supply of bitcoin and out of that supply, only few about 19 million are in circulating supply. In that circulating supply, there are many that has been lost and by that I mean the private keys to unlock this coins are lost, that means the bitcoin on this wallet can not be accessible, they are gone and los forever, there are many that have not been move for the past 10 years in legacy wallet, the owners have left them idle which people most time refer to as rich list. The rest are been held in exchanges and individuals and I don't that number can account for 50% of the circulating supply, that said.

Now, the bitcoin market is dependent on supply and demand; the remaining bitcoin are been traded on exchange , when a buyer need a bitcoin, he has to agreed to buy on the seller prices, so technically the supply of bitcoin is low and now imagine everyone around the world want to buy bitcoin and there is few bitcoin available, everyone will rushing to buy and the sellers will keep adjusting their sale price and the buyers will also continue to shift their own price as well just to close the spread and have there coin purchase. This is how the price is move and increase and similarly lower when there is fear uncertainty and doubt.
