7581  Local / Pilipinas / Re: Ang nawawalang Resibo at ang Blockchain. on: June 15, 2021, 09:33:55 AM
Naalala ko nung college na nakaipit lahat ng resibo ko sa notebook ko para meron akong proof palagi na bayad na ako. Kasi may mga pagkakataon na hindi nagre-reflect sa record ng mismong admin office o main system na bayad ka na recently. Merong record sa cashier pero hindi ko maintindihan bakit hindi nagre-reflect agad agad sa mismong database nila. Siguro nga yung school ko kasi dati hindi pa naman ganun kakilala din talaga at parang nag sisimula palang sila mag integrate ng system. Pero agree ako na kahit wala naman na ang blockchain sa ganitong system pero mas ok din naman na meron kasi makikita din sa system. Ang kaso lang, meron din namang database din ang bawat school sa mga admissions at payments kaya tingin ko upgraded na din naman lahat.
7582  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: There must not be more penny coins like Safemoon or Shib on: June 14, 2021, 11:40:45 PM
Thailand has stepped on this issue and I think if other countries will do the same, we're going to see most of these meme/penny coins be out of the market until they're only listed to a few exchange. But I don't think that other countries will follow the same decision as what Thailand did to get rid of these coins.
This is the link for that news. (https://www.engadget.com/thailand-bans-meme-coins-nft-113518980.html)

I don't think it can harm bitcoin because since then a lot of shitcoins already came into this market and none of them harm Bitcoin because they are just here to scam people. Bitcoin is already an established coin and scam projects wont hurt the market anymore not unless we hear so many hacking incidents. Those penny tokens are made a lot of good runs in the past months and many of my friends made a lot of money from that, I cannot blame them for joining the hype because they know what they are doing.
It cannot harm bitcoin but it can harm a lot of newbie investors that just got in to the market. They're thinking that these coins are the future specially if the person introduced it to them is a bag holder.

Stake came into gambling service as a key platform for casino games. Later it started its sportsbook. Right now it is completely power-packed with the availability of all form of games. The sports betting platform is being popularised than the traditional ones through large number of sports players as ambassadors which is the unique thing of Stake against other gambling platforms.
That's true and that's what we call branding. Stake did it really well and they know how to make their brand known not just in the crypto communities but as well as in the mainstream with the help of the ambassadors having that exposure to their fans and other audiences who have been following them. This is a natural growth that we cannot ignore and can be said that stake did really an amazing job to inform the world that they're one of the best fullypacked casino.

Just don't be confident with everything you have read. It could be just another rumor or just someone who wants to play with the readers feeling. But if that so happen that it is for real then prepare for your position and just enjoy this comeback that bitcoin is doing. With too much thinking, it's just going to put much pressure on you and will probably result to you that you're going to sell earlier and then if another pump happens, you'll have that thought that you should haven't sold earlier. That's why it's better to relax with these runs and think of a better plan.
7585  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Meme coins have no use case on: June 14, 2021, 03:15:52 PM
Thailand has a say about the meme coins and I think they're the first one to remove them from exchanges outrightly.
(https://www.engadget.com/thailand-bans-meme-coins-nft-113518980.html)
Other than meme coins, they've also commanded to remove NFTs and other exchange tokens. With that law that they've made, they're trying to remove the manipulation that might put their citizens into it.
7586  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Man lost £20,000 in one night after becoming addicted to online gambling! on: June 14, 2021, 01:30:44 PM
Truth about gambling addiction as you have rightly said. But for a man to have lost £20000 it's way beyond addiction has you have pointed out.  After now what's the possibility of the victim to avoid gambling (self exclusion) because addiction is very difficult to stop and how do we advice victims of gambling addiction to help reduce their losses and also help then build a better money management format.
There are gamblers that are even losing more than that amount. But with such amounts, that only indicates how can one is willing to gamble with and lose it eventually and then will go back to their normal thinking that they should haven't lose that amount.
That's when the reality knocks that they've lost a lot and if they've won huge amounts, they're not going to realize how lucky they are for winning that amount. Because instead of securing those profits, they're putting it again on the line and then that's when they eventually lose it.
7587  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Big companies finally had enough of the excessive tax on: June 14, 2021, 08:56:20 AM
They really have to reconsider this high taxation that they're imposing to casinos or gambling related companies. 20% is such a huge amount for a tax to pay but I think that they have to hear the concern of these companies and look out for a possibility that they're going to transfer their main operations. If that happens, then there's no longer tax to pay for them because they've never open their ears to hear their concern. It's going to be a loss for the government if they won't have any dialogue with them. If they see that there's such a huge money going in and out to these companies, it's because they're on the right niche and adding some taxation, that's really out of hand, they should've at least consult first what these companies think.
7588  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: June 14, 2021, 07:52:52 AM
I can't believe it... I'm surprised, I would never have imagined the Suns would beat Nuggets in 4-0.... and a few days ago, the Suns eliminate the Lakers who were one of the favorites teams to win this championship
CP3 and Booker scored over 70 points together. Shocked

Will the Suns have a chance of beating the Clippers or Jazz?

If they reach the conference finals, the Suns can make history, because Phoenix has only played 2 conference finals (correct me if I'm wrong)
They have. Those surprising beating that they've made are enough to remove our doubts with them. They've proved themselves enough and that's why I don't have my doubts with them anymore beating two good teams and I think they'll be giving any of those teams a hard time to win against them. A surprising sweep that they've made against Nuggest with the MVP on that team. Well, this is really surprising but they've just shown everyone what they can do and what we can expect with them. Whilst the other teams, Brooklyn and Bucks, they're now tied with a standing of 2-2.
7589  Economy / Speculation / Re: ✅ We are currently in a year where the trend for Bitcoin on: June 13, 2021, 11:58:55 PM
Bitcoin is huge growth, a big price correction in that year is not without predecent (ie 2013).
BTC still primed to go to 100k by EOY 🚀
When I was browsing, I've found people find it funny that they've seen predictions like bitcoin hitting $100k at the end of this year. But they don't find it funny when the fact that bitcoin has dropped half and then suddenly it's starting to recover. I don't know what's the matter with these people finding it funny to see such predictions. They didn't know even there were crazier predictions in the past and they've laughed when someone has said that bitcoin might surpass its past ATH @ $20k and it did. The discouragement that these corrections are bringing are really bringing them down and losing hope.

I just sign up and explore the website, the dark theme set by default but I can't find the button to change to light.
I explored the website as well but I didn't have to register myself but as I see, I like the dark theme that they have by default. And you can adjust it into light by looking at the left side bottom side under help which has a label of "AM-PM".
You can press the sliding button to change the theme at your will.
7591  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Have you received a call/text recently from a friend/fam asking about Bitcoin? on: June 13, 2021, 09:59:05 PM
Good thing, there's no one bothers me anymore unlike the 2017 craze. The early of this year has been the best run so far and still, no one has asked me about it or got a random call from any of those connections. Well, when someone approached me a few months ago asking that he knows someone who has purchased luxury things because of bitcoin. I just thought of it that someone has already told him that I'm an investor probably that someone was a friend of mine that I've told how to invest in bitcoin. Well, I've immediately thought that it's best to keep it to myself and no more explaining in person even if somebody is trying to open a topic about it just to be safe from a possible wrench attack.
7592  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BTC price VS gambling on: June 13, 2021, 08:59:04 PM
What I noticed is that the minimum withdrawal amount goes up with the bitcoin price but never really goes down anymore. We are 50%below the ATH and it doesn't seem like the next rally will come any time soon, maybe it would be better for casinos to change their requirements again.
In stake, I've noticed the adjustment of the withdrawal when bitcoin's price has been up and that's what I think the same for the other casinos. But if they happen to have some fixed amount for minimum withdrawal, I think you can demand that to where you've been gambling with and ask them to lower the minimum amount since the price of bitcoin has been up. But just as what I'm thinking, the price went half from the all-time high and they can adjust it without any demand from their players to have it raise again or just stay to the fixed amount that they've been doing all of this time.

For me it is better to gamble with bitcoins when the volatility is lower. When there are no big price jumps it's easier to leave some coins at the casino.
The volatility of bitcoin won't change but sometimes it becomes stable and if you're fine with that price and the current fee it shows, that's the right time for you to transfer or deposit.
7593  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How about the future of the market? on: June 13, 2021, 07:58:08 PM
I think this drop is completely normal in the crypto market. We have seen the market have a very high gain in April, clearly the market needs a small correction to be able to continue growing.
Yes, the drop is basically a normal thing in cryptocurrencies. We saw this so many times. The future of cryptos lies in itself. There will be sets of new types of investment that will also surround the cryptocurrencies but there's only one thing that's for sure. The best of the best of cryptocurrencies will stay and those established ones like Bitcoin and Ethereum and other established altcoins shall stay for the future.
7594  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: I might have made the worst/best first investment on: June 13, 2021, 08:25:51 AM
I have my doubt that OP is really an investor for that project. What's likely is that he's part of the main team or the marketing team and has to give exposure for this project. Well, what a nice story.
But if it happens that he's really an investor on this project, I wish him luck but such projects aren't really that popular and usually, you know what you shall expect with that type of project.
7595  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: British Man Duped out of $282,000 in Brutal Crypto Scam on: June 13, 2021, 07:12:37 AM
It's sad to see when news like this comes out. Newbies really will fall for such scams because they think those sweet words of guaranteed profits will make them well off during this pandemic crisis. And as usual, these scammers will use cryptocurrencies so that they won't be tracked by the authorities not unless they fall for the trap of probably making their own mixers and will save their addresses. As a result, people will again look again at cryptocurrencies as if it is the culprit and not those scammers that tricked them.
7596  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BTC price VS gambling on: June 13, 2021, 06:02:45 AM
It's not about how big the profit might give but it's about the quantity and the little that they can gamble due to the high price of bitcoin. For example, when the price is at the peak, you can actually gamble with a few decimals and that valuation for that quantity is already quite good enough. That's the reason why if the price of bitcoin is high, there are gamblers that are choosing to gamble with bitcoin for such an amount. Because the advantage is if they've been holding bitcoin for so long, they have little to spend for gambling and it won't lessen a lot with their holdings.
It would've been nice if this was the case but unfortunately it's not, i've only seen a handful of casinos that change their minimums (deposit/withdrawal) based on significant price changes and the rest are always fixed to 1mbtc and above. Overall you're still forced to play with the same value unless you're okay playing with alts which usually have lower minimums.
Oh yeah, I forgot about the set minimum amount for deposit but for withdrawals. I've seen some casinos that have changed it because in the valuation if the price of bitcoin is high, it's considered quite expensive if the price of bitcoin is high and they won't change the minimum withdrawal. But yeah, it's a case-to-case basis and in some manner, it's not usually the case for most gamblers. It just so happens that some have to experience it and the market was quite good before but now, it has changed and we're looking at the market and seems back to the bearish trend.
7597  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Best place for staking or yield farming on: June 13, 2021, 04:52:50 AM
Hardware wallet or desktop/app multi-wallet. For hardware wallet, Ledger live has the feature of staking for few altcoins. (https://www.ledger.com/staking)
For the desktop or multi-wallet apps, you can choose with sets of them. From Atomic(https://atomicwallet.io/staking), Trust(https://trustwallet.com/staking/), Imtoken(https://token.im/staking), and many more. They're just examples where you can stake.

7598  Economy / Economics / Re: Are you investing in crypto currency alone? on: June 12, 2021, 11:45:35 PM
Not many countries have made available stimulus package for its citizens to help soften the economic effects of the pandemic.
With many nations of the world still recovering from the economic realities caused by the pandemic, how will you describe the economic situation in your country at the moment?
It's recovering and the borders are starting to open but health protocols are still being followed strictly. Hopefully, I'm waiting for that day that our government will start to announce that we're free from covid-19 and we can now go everywhere without having the need to wear masks and face shields. And most of those people that have been affected by lay offs can now go back to their old jobs and can start their lives again smoothly.

I am curious, Apart from your crypto Holdings, what other investments do you have? Or are you investing in crypto alone?
I've got a huge part of my investment in cryptocurrencies but it's also important to invest outside of it like real estate. That's why years ago, I already have it and still plans to use a part of my profit to buy the next property that I will have.
7599  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BTC price VS gambling on: June 12, 2021, 10:54:09 PM
This is true. The volatility we've seen since this thread was originally posted is a prime example why Bitcoin should not really be used for gambling unless you happen to think it will go up from the current price. There are many reasons, like if you're buying Bitcoin purely for this purpose your "money" value has dropped in half since February. Alternatively you would have been better off cashing out if you had funded a casino account in the huge run up to $65k, it probably would have given you a much better return on your assets - if not the same level of fun. Fiat money which is relatively stable is a much better way to gamble because you don't have to make a layer of secondary valuation calculations due to daily swings in price.
Yes, that's one consideration that a gambler has to take. But if his bitcoins came from holding since a year or two ago, that's just fine to gamble at this rate because it won't be hurting him much if he bought it at a rate that's quite low. But if someone who's too sensitive with the price swings, I would agree that aside from using altcoins to gamble, he can fund his account with fiat and just use it to gamble so that there's no pressure and no need to think of how much he's going to win or lose in terms of bitcoin's value.

Sometimes we have to take gambling seriously if we want to ensure profit, for sports bettors or those who are playing games that they are believing they can use their skills, they can trade their bitcoin into stable coin, using TRC-20 transaction for fast and cheap transaction fee, then you'll not anymore worry on the volatility, prbolem solve and we will also not gonna take about the high fees anymore.
Well, that's for sure. Most gamblers who want to win have secure profit but that won't happen in an instant. There has to be a process and choosing which coin to gamble is what they've to consider but it has nothing to do with their wins and the strategy. It's just about how to start and which coin is you're comfortable to gamble and for you to save fees. TRC20 is really cheap and since the price of bitcoin has been stabled and not that expensive for the others anymore, spending bitcoin will be more if you've bought at high then you have to start choosing these altcoins where you can save more fees.
7600  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Should I sell or hold on my bitcoin? on: June 12, 2021, 09:57:06 PM
Here is my advice don't sell for lower price at least if you had bought higher price. Although if do you have bought btc in cheap price under $20k then welcome to sell and take your profits now. Actually btc ATH good move everyday so if you can take long time holding then you will receive good profits. Even you should analysis first then we will find a best decision. Otherwise if you would like important our decision then you can't make profits from crypto market.
That mistake of selling at a lower price had been done by too many panic sellers. They have been taken for granted because they rely on their emotion. They've thought that it's not going to last anymore and the favor is not with them. If they don't have to sell, they can hold until they can because that's the only thing that they have to do. You don't sell at loss and if you're at loss and you can see it with the value of bitcoin that you're holding, you only have to hold.
