It is easy to say or read to just HODL your coins but the fact is that when your portfolio falls, it is very hard to bear. But one cant do nothing as this volatility cannot be controlled and one should bear it and survive it.

i do agree with you and it could be the hardest part for all the hodlers.
If this comes to me I just try to remember what a good friend always tells me. "No matter what happens you will still have the same number of bitcoin".
If you sell it then can you get it back? What if a sudden rise came. You cannot go back after that.
You wont be buying at a larger price. That is considered as loss too.
With that, I can clear my mind with doubts.

Anyone seen those bad habits of Chris Paul. He is really desperate to get that western conference finals. Referees never called even one.

Golden State taking the steal at Houston homecourt. Durant really made me Wow.

It is really different when it is at the Playoffs. Even Boston have to change the way they defend. A lot of switches justso they could match every star player.
I saw when Chris Paul was attempting to foul Durant while coming down with the ball from a rebound in his end of the court.
Didn't know he was such a dirty player.
He elbowed him while his back was turned away from him and got him in the back side then the back of his leg, which I think he was going for.
CP3 I think was hired as the muscle in which Houston was looking for.
More of an enforcer so in order to double team their opponents from what Harden is known for doing in drawing the fouls by doing questionable things during a game.

There is one more time, another elbow after the rebound I think and it was Klay who was almost reached by it. Good thing he dodged it.
Desperation can do a lot of things. But in basketball it could also lead to a game where you will lose because of that madness.

Foul troubles have been also the key in the 3rd quarter. Ariza getting 5 fouls is a loss to them. We know Ariza is one of their good defensive player with all the steals that he gets.
He came in at 4th very careful to not be fouled out. The defense became weak afterwards.

To be honest, the phillipine's community is not large, specially if we talk about cryptos, so for me, there is nothing to be worried about.
And this was a specific case, there is nothing special with it.

Yes.There are still few of the population who have known bitcoin well and those for sure were not totally affected by the reported news.Bitcoin is legit and it's never a scam for us.But for those who have heard bitcoin for the first time will make a negative impact on bitcoin thinking it would not bring any good to the economy of the Philippines.

Maybe that is because of lack of knowledge. If they do not really understand it then they wont even have a little trust with bitcoin.
I bet the Philippine Government would not even advertise this kind of currency. It will be a mess if they did and taxes that will come in will be low.

Old supporters will still continue and they could be the key into making people understand it, small or large group is a good addition to the community.

KD is the best player of the game in Game 1. KD and Thompson are on fire at the game and Curry did what he must did although the 2 did more that made them win the game. They have neutralize the three-pointers of the Rockets and didn't made that many threes compare to Warriors. Moreover, only Harden is the only player who are moving that much. The rest are just standing base on some of their possessions. They must defend KD even more so that they have the chance to win game 2.
As I have said before, Kevin Durant is a big factor and he can get early and score, there's a high chance that the Warriors will win the game. He's the only consistent player from the 1st quarter up to the last minute, hitting clutch after clutch. We all notice how tight Chris Paul is, maybe he's really desperate to impress the crowd however, they are facing the best team in the West. It's really hard to play Kevin Durant because he's tall and can shoot and penetrate as well. And you can see that when there is a rotation, Durant always took advantage by making those fade away shots.

Yes that is what I said about CP3. By impressing the crown he is also losing the game and did not even notice it. He is too hot-headed and that is not how you should play in the Finals. He should really cool down and make the plays if he really want the ring.
That steal of Game 1 makes a huge difference in the confidence of the Houston team. Game 2 might become a snatch again.
Although Curry didnt make much points, just being there gives the team a huge confidence and also he did good in the rotation. He just keeps on moving, sometimes I dont even notice he is on the other side that fast.

It sounds so bad when it is headlined as Bitcoin Scam. Why it doesnt happen with fiat?

They should change on how they make titles like that. Bitcoin is a currency so it will be regular if it will be used to different scams or hyips.
This kind of errors makes people believe when the bitcoin word is heard they will already disagree.
7407  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2018 NBA Season on: May 13, 2018, 08:25:17 PM
LeBron is on the mission again this year, and for you guys who thinks Celtics can overcome the Cavs, well sorry to say but the chances are very low without their 2 superstars. Experience has a higher winning percentage. Remember what happened with the OKC in the 2012 NBA finals? That team was stacked with young talents, but they lost because they dont have experienced the pressure and atmosphere in a playoff championship game.
It wouldve been a good competetive match up if both teams have a healthy roster.
This is like a history that is written and will just repeat itself.  I was once a fan of Boston Celtics but if we'll see and check the line up, experience and path on who's going to the right one, Cavs is the clear one that's going through. I like to assume that this can be the same as last year that Golden State Warriors and Cleveland Cavaliers will face again in the finals but this season will be for Cavs.
Lebron is very consistent in the East so I have to believe that they will easily win against the Boston this year.
If only they have Irving playing with them now, they might have a chance to win against the cavaliers as they have the home court advantage, but sadly Irving was injured so their chance of winning is very low now.
From the past round, Boston really struggles from some plays. IMO, correct that Lebron's consistency could lead them to finals. But I think Boston will put a little fight in the end of the East Finals.

But my team is Gloden States. Say Hi to the Warriors fans here. Hooooo!!!!  Roll Eyes
Ahh no. Not a Warriors fan! Embarrassed
Just kidding. Wink
I can not see them going far since they have Curry who has soft ankles and everytime I see him jumping for the ball I always see in my mind him twisting his foot again and being out for the rest of the playoffs.
We have all seen how the Warriors perform without their leader at the helm and against a healthy Cavaliers team, they do not have a chance to go on to the finals.
They already know what Stephen Curry's  injury of course. Coach Steve Kerr will prevent him to take strong from the paint. With the help of Durant and Green from their defense to Lebron, he will be immobilize in case Cavs will go to conference finals.
What I was getting at was if Stephen Curry rolls his ankle again, which could be very easy for him to do on any play being run, the Warriors are done.
They might as well kiss their chances to even get to the finals goodbye.
Curry is their team and without him not even Kevin Durant and Draymond Green can save the team from going down with depending on defense alone.
https://sports.yahoo.com/draymond-figured-knows-series-comes-184444138.html
We will need to see how he does against Capella in the Houston Rockets match up first (https://www.sfchronicle.com/warriors/article/Warriors-Rockets-matchup-to-watch-Draymond-Green-12908341.php) before talking about even meeting up with Cavailers when they run over Boston first. Wink


I dont think they will let him play without a go signal from his health team. This people are paid big time and they wont sacrifice the whole payment for just some games.
Even with the playoffs, they did not force Curry to play even with GSW getting hard times in their games.
He should be really healthy by now if they already let them go.
If there will be injuries that will happen then it can be a new one or just because of age. Grin
It will a good match up. Capella is working because of Harden. You could look at how Green defended Anthony Davis from the recent games. It is a hard job but he could somehow do some work on the inside.
7408  Economy / Speculation / Re: Reasons why Bitcoin is droping: on: May 13, 2018, 07:49:53 PM
Let's see if it's a good sign, nothing will go on forever and nothing will go down today, it's going to be the next day, believe it, it will happen, love bitcoin

Now that is one good supporter. Do not look at the present, try to look at the future. Good one my friend.

I concluded I think the bitcoin price is going down a lot because there are some new players are frightened, with bad news or fake news that can create panic so they directly sell the bitcoin owned and make the price collapsed.

Weak hands as we call them. In every altcoin there are a lot of people that are like this. They want easy money but ending up in their worse decision of their entire life.

As of the posts. That Crypto Rand doing this kind of reason are all just FUD's. I do think they create this to at least boosts their own coin, even for just a slight chance they will take it.
7409  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you trust ERC20 tokens? on: May 13, 2018, 12:54:14 PM
You could also create your ERC20 token. It is just one youtube away.
The project behind it should be what you are bashing not the contract it made.
Wrong understand of the smart contract could lead to this kind of threads.
Maybe reading more will enlighten you.
If you are with one scam token then see to it that you are in the right route of what you are trying to correct.
7410  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2018 NBA Season on: May 13, 2018, 10:26:00 AM
I still can't decide whether I should make a bet in favor of GSW for the Tuesday's game or not. They are in very god form right now, with Kevin Durant, Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson performing exceptionally well. But so is the Houston Rockets. James Harden can be a tough nut to crack for the GSW.

That is why this is going to be a good fight.
Bets will be changing every quarter and I am thinking of going live looking at it.
I am a GSW fan but this Houston team is really strong and will really make a big change when it comes to the vegas odds.
With their great offense and their record, they might become the favorite and also because of the homecourt advantage.
7411  Economy / Speculation / Re: The way of BITCOIN! 2018 on: May 12, 2018, 09:54:44 PM
Overall you just talked about prices.
There is nothing about projects or anything that will be of use of bitcoin.

Are we really that into money in this time?
How about what it eill do for the people? Only those who have bitcoin will have the fun on reaching a value that you are saying. But what those who have not yet come in?

I guess se should also deal with that. How can it be more inviting to them from hereon.
Okay I have bitcoin, and then what?
7412  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The pump and dump tactic on: May 12, 2018, 07:22:29 PM
You will have to be wise when it comes to this.
Know if it is just a hype. It is not just about whales anymore when a lot of hamsters have been pulled inside. It will also create a good hype that could make some profits. But the real question is not how but when?
When is that right time? We do not know who the whales are or the hamsters. So you will rely on your instinct or not to be greedy. Take the safest way, withdraw with small profits. Do not regret even if it goes up.
That is the real problem actually. Greed.
7413  Economy / Economics / Re: Decentralized Crypto Lending for Interest on: May 12, 2018, 07:09:27 PM
No, not yet. And even if there will be one there will still be doubts in those who will invest their money for lending purposes.
I'd rather do a fiat to fiat lending than risking it here.

If you go to the lending section here, you will see a lot of requirements just so they could give you that specific amount and it is not always a success. That is one good example already of how lenders needs to be 100 percent sure to where they will provide the coin.
ICO's like this one tend to be buried in just a manner of time. I do think that is one of the reason.
7414  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2018 NBA Season on: May 12, 2018, 05:02:14 PM

Celtics vs Cavs on Monday. Anyone that has insider if one from the team can't play or all of them are capable?

Cleveland Cavaliers squad are all capable to play.

For Boston Celtics, aside some of their players who are rested for rest of the season/playoffs, the recent one who got injured is Shane Larkin on their Game 4 matched between the Philadelphia 76ers. Although at some point that this guy really helps on defense, his average stats is low so I think his absence can't really bring a bad impact from the whole Boston Celtics squad.

Don't worry about Cleveland Cavaliers and Lebron James because they can't even make any win with in their match between Boston Celtics. They will not go to Finals! Boston in 4. Thoughts? 

I don't know if you really following NBA but even for a 100% Lebron James haters can't ever think of that. Smiley Although it has chances, it's difficult to imagined that Cavaliers will take a rest without any win if ever Celtics will got the series.

I think the majority of Celtics fans will say Boston in 6 but not Boston in 4.

So it's like you saying 0.001% to sweep the Cavs by Celtics. I know cavs sweep raptors but. Let see what will happen for cavs now. I really trust this young Celtics to do that on LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers. It's gonna be Rockets vs Celtics in 2018 NBA Finals.

I am an underdog fan and it looks like this is what will be happening in bets. They will be giving away money for those who will risk it.
I might do that if only Philly is the one who will be facing that Lebron James team.
But for the Celtics I am in doubt because of the match ups. Somehow I see Philly as a defensive team and might get a chance to face Cleveland. But will Celtics, look at how they won with 76ers, all are almost a steal to them and some are just pure luck or because of the not careful game plan of 76ers which could really happen because of their young line up.
Same with the Boston.

7416  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is it safe to trade through a Broker on: May 11, 2018, 08:19:39 PM
Hi community,

A broker contact me online and asked me whether I am interested in trading online. He will manage my account and put his knowledge to make me profit but in return I have to send me 25% of profit that he made.

He suggested me to activate 2FA. and provide him username + password of exchange (for example bitfinex). Due to 2 factor authentication (2FA) he will not be able to withdraw fund he will be able to place buy/sell orders only.

Please share guys what is your opinion, It is same to play like this? or Is there any trick of capturing fund behind this scheme?



He will use his knowledge? Wow. Is he seeing the future now?  Grin
I don't think there is one who could do that. Be careful with this kind of services. First of all, why the hell would he come to you? Did he see the funds that you have? Be careful, you might be a target.

If I were you, I would just do it myself. Plus, bots are all over now. You can create one method of yours then maybe you will just have the same as your broker says it.  Grin

 Grin Mamba is Kobe so he sure does hate Lebron. I am one also but let us just get real here. Just like harizen tells it, it is hard to imagine Cavaliers losing with those newbies.  Grin He will sure do anything on his power to lift up the Cavaliers.
He got some good helpers too so the game plan will be easier for him.
It might be a sweep but Celtics will give them a hard time and might take a steal even for just 1 game.
7418  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoin is for day trading on: May 11, 2018, 05:51:46 PM
in my opinion, the best currency pair is BTC and ETH, as there you can get a larger percentage, and these coins are more predictable and proven.

Yes that is the easy way and there is so much movement with both.

I also prefer USDT to BTC and USDT to ETH. This two will fluctuate most likely and could give a larger profit in just a manner of time.
They are all using that Tether so why not just go with the flow while it is still there. Make profits out of it before they shut it down.  Grin
7419  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin. Time is running out on: May 11, 2018, 04:09:23 PM
In truth, there is another undervalued coin with a lot of potential. It's Waves. Already, it is technologically better than Etherium, but the promotion and marketing of this coin simply kills all its advantages. Now, even no one knows what this coin is.

True. Why does everyone doesn't see this?

I have seen how good Waves. It is almost like ethereum but with everything in their website. Wallet and a trading website. You even look for more are that could take out the risk of being hacked from too many sites that you are entering just so you can trade different coins or tokens.

If only it was supported during its campaign. But due to the hype there are also FUD's that came out which made it unpopular anymore.
7420  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2018 NBA Season on: May 11, 2018, 02:11:36 PM

I am having some discussion about this with a friend and trying to sum up who will defend the king and vice versa who will defend Tatum as he is a good offensive player also.

Smart is still healing with an injury on his palm that could get worse if forced. He is only the one I can think of that is buffed and with agility that could defend Lebron.
Cavaliers have some agile players also that could defend Tatum but they will be leaving Brown and Rozier on the outside who could shoot some 3's.

This is going to be a hard part for the Celtics since Smart could be looking at a foul trouble while defending Lebron. Who will be next in line after that?
Smart is overrated and can not defend Simmons, McConnell or Saric. What hope does he have in defending Thompson, Hill, Smith or even a Lebron for that matter.
They are toast in the next 4 games. And I do not think Kyrie is making an appearance this years playoffs so the Celtics have no hope in going against the Cavs when they are rolling over first seed teams like they are high school Bball teams.
There is another week until the next conference finals start so there is alot of time to think how these matchups will end.
Until then there is little more to talk about on this years playoffs.

That is why I am having some hard time thinking of the match-ups. Lebron is just too much with his buff body he can still run like a cheetah.
Smart have good defense with the Philadelphia and some of those are really life saving for the Boston.

Morris and Ojeleye are the only left PF to have some slight speed that could somehow run with Lebron.
I think this will be about the rotation, if they can do this perfectly then they might steal some game. They cannot rest for a second or even blink.
