Well number 1 already summarizes it all.
If you just forget about the price then you wont have the feeling of sadness or whatsoever feeling that makes you feel down.

Problem here is they dont stop speculating the price.
So what? If it bulls are you selling? If it bears are you buying?
If you wont do those action, so why care with how much it is.

There is one more boring part. The non movement. Grin

I have one of that. I thought it will be an easy profit and yet when I came it suddenly just went calm.
Good thing I just bought for an average amount.

Mistakes are meant to happen though so I dont regret it. It is now a lesson.

I would rather see a bear market just like you said. There is still money there.

Can we say whoever wins the West will win the Finals.
Ahmmm.

I guess we can say that. Most of the teams on the Western Conference have their powerhouse and made their roster upgrade pretty well.

Just because of few transfers, we are now underestimating the East.  Grin

Kind of agree to the statement above but it's not underestimating. It's just that we are taking the scene into reality.

" FOR NOW" if no teams in the East will have at least a major revamp in their roster then it's more likely that a West team again will bring home the champ. Remember that LeBron James team never dethroned in Eastern Conference Finals for 8 consecutive years (yes with the help of his teammates but he is the most dominant) and struggles at some point against the Western Conference champion during finals. And now that he's on the West, Eastern contender might be a question for now. Yes there are young teams that gaves Lebron a headache but still I don't see them will take a chance against the monster on the West especially at the current champion.

Again, it's not a final verdict. Ball is round and everything can happened.

Yes it could be a big surprise that could happen.

There is still trading that happens before the All Star and that could also make a difference.

I want to see more of Philly. This team made a huge impact in the Eastern Conference.
Also Phoenix Suns might do some changes with their roster without moving their new stars.
How about Boston? They are full of injured players. Looks like it is going to be a hard fight for them.

Kyrie with knee injury. But now at camp hoping to be 100 percent. Marcus Smart who forced to play in playoffs even with straps in his hands.
Hayward is also doing some work by now.



7044  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will bitcoin fall down to 5K this month? on: August 08, 2018, 01:16:25 PM
That is just way too much.
We have all seen how it fluctuated from 6k then back to 8k for just a couple of days.
Now here we go again.
It is just going back and forth just like before.
I am looking at another increase next week although there is no basis, it is just how it moves.
7045  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto money will kill fake money on: August 07, 2018, 08:35:17 PM
Actually credit cards are being copied a long time ago and they cannot stop that.
Same with ATM or debit cards. That is why they made some adjustments with that bronze thing that is in it or they call it "smart chip".

Somehow they think it could stop the fakes that are being made or for customer security.
One of the perks of bitcoin is also to prevent that from happening over and over again. There is no fake bitcoin just copies like BCH and other altcoins but they have their own part on the blockchain.
7046  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: trading in bittrex on: August 07, 2018, 07:22:10 PM
There's no need to worry. Some people are only worried because they don't want to submit IDs on Bittrex that's why their account are not verified and unable to do withdrawals. I also submitted my passport on their KYC and I have no problems with withdrawal. Bittrex is a good exchange to trade.

Yes he is correct with this. Maybe the accounts of those who talked to you are new accounts. They will really have a problem for withdrawals since there is a limit for those.
Doing their KYC will break that limit and you can now get out. Since it is just 2k dollars, I dont think they will stop you from withdrawals.

They only do that for large amount of transactions.
7047  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Pre-Season on: August 07, 2018, 04:26:38 PM
Barring any injuries, the Warriors will defend its title once again I think. OK, Houston was close last year and Melo could turn out to be good. Lakers will be a playoff team and I think OKC will improve compared to last year- the Kiwi is a beast
Lakers will beat the OKC and once again westbrook will have an early exit in the playoffs.
Rockets are a good team but Lebron is with the lakers now, only the warriors can beat him so I think we will see most likely a Lakers vs Warriors West Finals.
This will only happen if they will have a good chemistry along the way but I have trust in Lebron. Remember when they traded most of their players last season and yet they are in 4th spot. I think the will be a playoff contender but not enough to win in the conference (own opinion).

Warriors won 2 out of three in their past three finals appearances and most people ar saying thay they will win again now that they acquired Boogie and I agree with them although as they always say "The ball is round". Lets just see their performance next season.
They have been just adding up players to create a superteam but i would still believe that Lakers would really give a good fight on West finals. Coordination would really takes time specially with Lebron and the players of Lakers but that wont really be a major issue. This year would be exciting on the west on how those superteams will clash as well into those runner-ups on the conference.

Can we say whoever wins the West will win the Finals.
Young players have been doing hard work at the east and they are also getting bigger line ups. While the best have super guards which makes a small and fast teams.
It had been a huge flip now. Before it was the West who have Giants but now it seems like the guards are the mostly seen.

Embiid should really take his game to a higher level so that centers will be seen again on the front lines.
7048  Economy / Economics / Re: What will you do with the current market? on: August 07, 2018, 01:32:13 PM
Do nothing.

It is part of the market. Just way different than commodities and currencies because of the broad fluctuation which is also not expected.
But I prefer it that way than be in a slow movement.
If that happens then I would rather pick Gold than any altcoin that is here.
7049  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Good time to invest in an ICO? on: August 06, 2018, 10:58:26 PM
With the present market conditions it is better to hold on and invest in good projects when they get on exchanges because a lot of projects drop below ICO price when listed on exchanges, and the good tokens have a good chance to go back up in the bull market.

Yeah I found that mostly on iCO's. Why the hell was that happening. Investors will stop buying tokens from ICO if this keeps on happening.
It will include the good ones which will be a waste of unique minds creating projects that will really be useful.

Even their bonuses wont fill up the loss that will come to pre ICO buyers.

I believe Ben Simmons who is teammates with Embiid has a bigger potential to be a MVP one day. He can score (even tho he lacks shooting) semi-decently and if he learns how to score properly than that part is done, he can rebound very well at his age, he will only get better, he has amazing passing, he is not a "playmaker" but a passer, just like how stockton was the best playmaker we have ever seen but magic was the best passer, ben simmons is more like magic rather than stockton in that regards. He can block thanks to his height and athleticism.

So, basically he is a younger lebron-ish guy, of course no one can be even remotely as good as lebron at that age and probably ever but the style is similar. He can reach to double double or even triple double averages if he works for in the next 10 years which can earn him an MVP.

He does need to upgrade his kind of game though.

It will be hard to be an MVP with just assist and rebounds. He should perfect that perimeter shot to be a better player.
Why? With an outside shot he can create a space for Embiid. With his new option for a perimeter shot he can now make fakes and create a score inside.
He cannot stay the way he plays last year. Although he had been good with the assist thing he needs improvement. Well, he is still young he can still do much.
7051  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why we will see $50k Bitcoin end of year on: August 06, 2018, 12:41:12 PM
It cannot even hit the 20k point again.
Why see a larger price than that? Is it really that big of a fluctuation that it can jump way high than our expectations?

I am not that optimistic about this prices and they are too much.
My shy prediction will be only back at 20k. I would rather stay with that to avoid causing mayhem.
7052  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The best altcoin 2018 for today on: August 05, 2018, 11:35:39 AM
I choose no coin from your list.

Same. No idea about those coins in his poll.
Cant vote for anything.

I will go Qtum and Aion. This two will have a big impact in the crypto world.
Qtum made a great market and they even paid well every advertising that was made for them.
You can see there already how they trusted their project to be a success.

hello! thanx for that instruction. i like the piece about using machine without anything important, it has never occured to me to work this way. all the best for you!

Yeah. This is where they got it all wrong from the start.

I guess they are too much excited to run it and never had the idea of being inflicted with a virus or anything. Worse part everything must be deleted.

They jump in and just never even think about it. Seeing how much the profits came in from other users telling stories they tend to make decisions without even thinking twice.
7054  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Which is profitable coin? on: August 04, 2018, 05:37:45 PM
I thought there will be choices before entering here.  Grin

Any coin can be profitable my friend. As long as you know what you are doing and add some luck on it. Knowledge about one coin is needed. When it will fluctuate and where? Those questions will be the keys into getting profit. Now you want short time trading and it could also be possible but you might need a long list.

You cannot stay with one token with the goal that you want for there are times it may not move. Better start now if you want it fast.
7055  Economy / Economics / Re: Crypto replacing fiat? on: August 04, 2018, 04:48:40 PM
It will be quite a very difficult thing for crypto to replace fiat. People still trust the fiat system more than cryptocurrency.
That is for now. It will happen eventually. We just cannot see it yet. Maybe we wont see it either but I have hopes my son will.


First of all, Crypto is never going to replace fiat, ever.

Second, hypothetically if this happens and Govts. are using crypto as fiat currency, then what is the difference between fiat and crypto. What would happpen with decentralization then?

They will have their own crypto. If it is digital then it is faster. There will be no more papers to bring everywhere you will go. Banks wont have to count the money they took from you. That is if they still exist.

If it is bitcoin which is going to be used then I doubt there will still be a government. If there is, then they should count on the people to pay them since everything will have privacy from then on.

One reason why they ban it also in other countries. It will stop the large amount they are taking from the people's tax.

I want to see if ever the Lakers will face the Houston.
It will be a different game in the playoffs when it is at the West. Let us see if Lebron got so much used with the East and will have a hard time in the West.
We cannot deny they lost too bad with the Warriors. They are stealing wins at the Cavs court.

With his line up others are used with how the West plays but how about Lebron. I am excited somehow.
7057  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Pre-Season on: August 03, 2018, 08:59:54 PM
Embiid has always been a bit too much type of guy but unfortunately no matter how good he gets and how awesome he plays he will never be MVP levels of good. The game just evolved away from the big guy and there is no way it comes back thanks to embiid. Embiid is a great force down in the post but the game is just too quick to allow embiid to have the time he needs to play with the ball.

Shaq had that hakeem had that all the big greats had that, they didn't had the game fire too quickly in the shot clock. We need to see a way of changing the way sixers play and whole league needs to not adapt to what sixers are doing in order to even put Embiid on the discussion. Right now we had a russell westbrook who made a second tripple double season in a row that lost to james harden on mvp race. Winning mvp is that much hard.

It sure is. It means a lot of hard work and putting your life on the line just so you could get it.
This guys almost perfected the attendance of the season for them to get that MVP.
Westbrook changing his gameplay and letting the team be better by his kind of game. Assist and Rebounds is one unique stats for a guard. Jason Kidd is well known for that and now he is a Legend. Perhaps Westbrook could get that kind of respect also once he continues playing that type of game.

What is with the Embiid hating?  Grin
7058  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What happened with coinmarketcap on: August 03, 2018, 06:31:47 PM
Coinmarketcap Huh

I think coin marketcap is going normal.
Im never look a wrong side, i don't know if i wrong.
But until now, coinmarketcap is best platform for looking a grow coin.

Seriously? Not even looking at the post of the OP?  Huh

I guess it is a glitch just like what others says here. Is that new? If you are looking at other tokens you will see this most of the time from this website.
That is why I am not using it anymore.
I would rather go directly to the exchange to see the real price of one token rather than looking at CMC.
7059  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What do you think, will BTC again jump in December? on: August 03, 2018, 04:41:35 PM
Hello Guys
I think, that will a BTC in next one or two months going down but, no so much, and then coming next jump. But this time, I think it will take longer and maybe will come also a new record resault. I will appreciate an expert comment.

I am no expert but I dont find any reasons for the bitcoin price to just go down easily in the Ber months to come. You see this months have been the most times where bitcoin grows in value.
I dont really know why but maybe this is also the time where people have more money and could add more investments if they already have the bitcoin in their hand.

Some may have been doing it yearly. Saving money from January to December then buying at the end of the year.
We could create a lot of predictions but none will be really accurate.
7060  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Pre-Season on: August 03, 2018, 02:03:53 PM
Rockets and celtics has the best shot at beating the warriors but it is still very very difficult to achieve, specially with cousins back (depends on how he comes back). Cousins can really put warriors to a level that is untouchable, kevin durant actually put them at that level first but warriors are not playing with that fire they played for the first year, they won 3 rings and kd had 2 rings with them and 2 finals mvp as well, there is really no point on playing with some motivation because everyone knows if they play they win.

Moreover, cousins didn't win anything yet and he really wants to on his one year with warriors which I believe he will leave soon, so he will want to win now. Celtics has a great young core and actually had a shot without kyrie and hayward. Rockets almost won and they didn't even had chris paul for the last games, they basically lost because they went zero from twenty seven threes. It is almost impossible to miss that many threes IN A ROW.

Hence, either cousins will lit a fire under warriors and they will win quite easily or rockets/celtics will try to overcome something realy difficult and win over warriors.

Im agree that Houston Rockets is one of the closest team that can matched the Golden State Warriors "BUT" it depends on how will they behave once season came.

Remember that Houston Rockets this upcoming season is not the Rockets last season with the same roster. They allow Trevor Ariza to accept the deal at other teams. We all know that Ariza is one of the key players why Rockets make it to the top of Western Conference Standing so now there will be a changed at players rotation. Good thing they re-signed Clint Capela which is now one of the most spectacular defender in the league.

And there are still lots of rumors rotating around the Houston Rockets about changes on their current roster. Carmelo Anthony is now closer to become a Rockets which surely will have an effect again at the current blend. And there are some players too that placed on trading rumors involving Houston Rockets. Let's see how this will goes.

Ariza. Yes, I do believe with that player. Remember Kobe?
He became the wingman of Kobe which gave him a championship. Ariza was there at the Lakers making explosions in defense and offense.
This is actually a great loss.

But there is a key factor here. D'Antoni is an offensive coach and that could be the reason behind the Carmelo rumor.
They want him to add more offense since they already have a good coach to make plays for it.
It may be a good thing but also a bad thing since they are losing a lot for defense.
Behind this must be a master plan of D'Antoni. It will be like another Phoenix Suns. (Steve Nash moments)
