841  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Does altcoins actually have the potentials of generating benefits to investors? on: October 28, 2022, 06:19:34 AM
As a beginner, altcoins are literally you way to finding wealth in crypto, all this major coins can't give you x100 again because they've done everything already, DYOR well and you're good to go
But 99.99 percent of those you called major coins are also an altcoin and it does not mean that if they already reach x100 they can't do it again, I've seen a lot of major alts who still can pump again. It only needs patience since it's also not easy for them to reach that kind of gains but at least they are more safer than those who were completely new on here.

Maybe once they reach that x100, they will only dump and dump with no signs of recovery. Beginners, must focus first on the one that is safe but of course not all the time it is followed. So many beginners immediately want huge profit so they go for the risky coins but most of them fail to get what they want.
842  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: October 27, 2022, 09:48:20 PM
Union Berlin actually won against Braga in the Europa League. I had not expected that. The win even gives them a chance to finish the group stage at place 2. This victory was very important for their self-confidence. I hope for the team that they take the good feeling with them into the next game against Mönchengladbach at Sunday and will get 3 points.
With this win now they are still in trouble because if they want to go into next round then they have to beat leaders Royale Union which is not easy because they are leaders and not lost any match in this group and Braga is going to host Malmö which not won any match and this is giving good edge to them for qualifying into next round.

Here in Bundesliga now their lead is also reducing from second spotted 1 point which is clearly concern for them because now it's time for them to improve performance and have good results in coming matches with next match is against Mönchengladbach which is currently not good and their away record is also worst as they not win any game in this season on road, so this could be good chance for home side to improve their lead against other teams in league table.
843  Economy / Economics / Re: Almost 50% of Gen Z and Millennials want crypto in retirement funds: Survey on: October 27, 2022, 09:24:41 PM
In retirement want to see their balance in crypto? with high volatility and risk? I don't think they know anything about how crypto works when it comes to retirement and their benefits for the long term. I think for them in their old age there is health insurance and hospital provision. Then the provision to enjoy old age is to have real assets that they can pass on to their grandchildren and children / Property, gold, land, and of course adequate education funds.
What you said is true. Cryptos are full of risk due to their high volatile state but as long as they pick up the right set of coins like for example bitcoin and ethereum, then I think they can easily secure their future with it since btc and eth value will always grow more in the future no matter how low their value right now or in the next day.

Those people can also convert the profit that they got from selling every bull run into stable coins or fiat so that they can retain the amount and won't be affected anymore by volatility. Some of them are young and they still lack of understanding when it comes to crypto and retirement but they can always adjust or learn more of it the older they get. There is no need to rush.
844  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Don't invest Heavily ALT now on: October 27, 2022, 09:08:11 PM
Every time is a good time to invest, what you should do is watch what type of investment you join in crypto currency today so you can avoid the fake projects. What to do after checking whitepaper and token product? check the token address basic information with @CheckMyTokenBot on telegram. That way you are able to identify all about the token contract
I don't know if you created that bot and you are now shilling it here but even if not, I think people are still going be cautious with that because they know that telegram is a den of scammers. It is still possible for us to tell if the token address is legit or not even without going to telegram but we will only search the real token and then compare it on what we have found.

Every time is not a good time to invest because not all times the value of the coins are low but sometimes their value are at their highest peak. Now tell me if you have tried investing during that scenario? I believe you haven't because you are afraid of what can happen next.
845  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is the Best gambling Token 2022? on: October 27, 2022, 08:15:22 PM
Currently, gaming tokens are not performing well due to market decline. Because if the market condition is not good then gaming or online casino games can never come back in good form. Gaming has performed well due to good market in the past. But as new generation gaming tokens are very few in the market now.Therefore, we should assume that when the market is good, gaming tech can return to good form.
We all know that gambling industry are so active despite of the bear and the crisis which are happening outside so I think there must be gambling tokens who are not affected of the decline because they are gambling tokens anyway, not a common crypto coin which are only dependent on the btc movement and on the news but I think it will also depend on the utility of that gambling token.

If it has a less utility and it can't be used inside the gambling platform then gamblers won't be force to own it so its value can't also increase fast but if that gambling token is required to optimize the gamblers experience then it will be in demand.
846  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Effective strategy to get crypto news. on: October 27, 2022, 02:54:20 AM
I guess, many crypto users used Bitcointalk to get effective strategy to get crypto news in the community to trade their coins, which is the best platform that is tested and trusted by many people to get genuine information from. Since people used crypto market information to know if there is a bear season or bull season in the community before they can sell or buy coins, because that is the best place many potential traders use to get their news from to carry out their trade to ensure they achieve something good at the end of the market.
Not many users in this forum are really discuss and share an important thing about altcoins, because most of users on altcoins section are spammers and only shills their shitcoins project. Usually they will create a thread where they say X coin will overtake Bitcoin, X coin will pump and the price will hit new ATH before Y date etc. If you're trade Bitcoin, then you will see many people are posting good price speculation and hot topic news on press board.
Not only in this forum but there are paid influencers in twitter and on youtube who do the same thing. There is also on telegram but it's possible to detect them if you already have some experience here in crypto. There are still lots of valuable threads in our forum but maybe not all information can be found here. Doing some searching outside is also a good thing to do.

I know there are now bots and groups which can send us signals, I think this was the same to what the op is looking for but he can still pursue his plans since he is a developer. He knows what he is looking for so he can tailor the program according to his own needs.
847  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Crypto-assets can have significant environmental impacts on: October 26, 2022, 06:46:50 PM
Of course it requires energy but the energy that it requires to mine Bitcoin in the world is really little,less than 1% and maybe now even less than that because many people have shut down their rigs because of them becoming unprofitable at the moment.

This news circulates in the media by people who do not love crypto and by doing so they want to scare away new people from coming into crypto but as many people say "You cannot stop an idea whose time has just come" so their tries will continue to go in vain like they have gone up until now.
It was 0.55 percent according to my research. That number look so small but some people are over acting and they think btc is consuming all the power in the world when in fact the factories and other large companies consumes more energy than it and they can emit more pollution which are harmful to the environment but it's surprising that they are hardly been criticize.

I guess those companies gave them some cash and maybe they are expecting the same thing for the crypto miners? This issue isn't new. Some got successful to shutdown crypto mining but crypto mining is still fully legal on most part of the world. They can not totally stop it.
848  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Alters for Next Bull Market on: October 26, 2022, 02:41:59 PM
Focusing on the top 300 coins list will certainly be very confusing because it will take a long time to find potential coins. Maybe you can focus on the top 50-100 list of potential coins so that you will have enough time to analyze them one by one and find the right coin for your investment. Or maybe you can look for cheap coins on the top 100 coins list. But don't forget to invest in bitcoin if you want to get big profits in the future and invest in altcoins only for the short term.
He didn't say that we need to invest all of them but then we need to analyse them before we invest. Maybe there is some tools online which we can use to filter out the key functions that we mainly look for. A few of those factors are already mentioned by the OP. That should eliminate most of those coins in the top 300.

Coins higher than on top 300 might not be a gem anymore because they are done doing a great increase with their value and that is the reason why the climb up the ranks. There's only less to expect on them. Hidden gems can also come on those newly released coins and they are better since we can get them cheap and the private sale but btc must be our base since it is more guaranteed than the rest.
849  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Faucet and Bonus Farming on: October 26, 2022, 06:21:22 AM
I am not in a casino nor do I register to playing the faucets, they do not interest me.

 They are an old retrograde system that has to disappear or evolve as a royalty system, they also create false traffic to certain casinos, in fact a user who goes to a casino by faucet alone ends up being a "bot" of the casino.

 There are the ToC, ir easy simply read them and stick to them.
Casino is for having fun and trying our luck to win a profit. It wasn't built for faucets. If we don't have the money or we don't want to gamble but we want to try faucets then we need to go on a real faucet sites. There are lots of them and they are less strict.

Faucets are put by a casino for some reasons like players can use it to test the games but there are still some players who use their faucet claims as their main capital and they don't deposit anymore. This is wrong and against the rules. When it comes to traffic. Casino likes it if they have more traffic and maybe the faucet is one of their asset to attract people to come on them. Bots cant abuse it because there are captchas.
850  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How would the world be if Bitcoin wasn't created on: October 25, 2022, 09:18:04 PM
Without bitcoin, the world will continue to run, the world economy will continue to spin, and human life will remain as usual, but if bitcoin is not created, there will certainly never be new challenges in the assets that we hold and control ourselves, basically there is no one. no one knows what was in the mind of Satoshi Nakamoto at that time, the originator of bitcoin whose name is known throughout the country, but until now no one has been able to reveal the true identity of Satoshi.
I agree, if bitcoin doesn't exist at all I will be still keeping my money in the banks even though the interest doesn't change and it is very small compared to the interest you will get when you save your money in Binance. If bitcoin doesn't exist and created I will not be able to be in this life I am living right now, thanks to crypto I can earn much more than my full time job, I am able to survive in pandemic and inflation as well.
I think the primary purpose of banks is for people to safe guard their money and they can only dispense sufficient amount anytime they need it. Even btc is here, and there are now binance, you can always keep your money in the banks. There are no btc's on the past but why its possible for others to change their lives from poor to rich? If they can do that then you can also do it even without the help of btc.

There will still be forex, stocks and other markets where you can do trade and invest. The only main advantage of btc is it is decentralized and there are people who are always looking forward about it where they won't depend on fiat money anymore.
851  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Two Gambling Stories on: October 25, 2022, 08:26:32 PM
The guy doesn't owe this girl anything except $10,000, which he stole from her. If I were her, I would stop communicating with a man who steals money altogether. But most likely she is mercenary and the money can turn her blind eye to her boyfriend's illegal actions. I think their story will end when the guy runs out of money, and he will run out quickly if he's already gambling with other people's money.
$10k is a big amount already and the guy steals it without the girl knowing it and what if the guy lose it all? Do you think he can be able to pay that easily? No I don't think so, that is why the girl has the rights to demand that high. If not then the girl can take this case in the court just like some of the users in this thread said. All person can change so why not give this guy a second chance?

And I don't think he will ever steal money again judging on the amount that he won. It will take him ages to spend that all. What about the second story? Won't you give your own argument with it? But for me, the player there was lucky that his boss is kind and only demands 50 percent. Some boss will demand more than that. I won't think twice anymore but I'll share the winnings immediately before my boss change his mind.

I can guarantee we'll hear about at least a few cases of people deported or thrown in jail...
Adultery is punishable by death in Qatar (same with homosexuality as well). Theoretically any of the unmarried couples can be arrested and sentenced to death. However, this law is not very strictly implemented, especially for Western tourists. However, such couples may face difficulties, in case they need to access medical services or health insurance. A few years back, one woman was arrested after she got pregnant, since she was not married at that time. Anyway, all I am saying is that Westerners need to be careful while being in Qatar.
Now we have less than one month and still too many rumors and confusion is around with this we need to be had some rules in FIFA about these events if any country want to host then surely he needs to have strictly few things allowed for fans which surely accepted even any country because right now as laws and news coming nothing is clear, and we can't talk about this what will happen and how things will be manageable for both parties like FIFA and Qatar authorities.

But, as you mentioning Westerners I am not worrying about them because I have experience of Gulf region their mostly laws are stick just for Third World countries like Bangladesh, India and Pakistan with few more like these but for Westerners they are having exemptions because they also understand they have to live with them and their technology in this hell.
853  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Polygon (MATIC) to $20? on: October 25, 2022, 06:16:24 AM
I am optimistic that matic is a big project that will skyrocket in the future, at this time the price of matic is around 78 cents and I suggest to buy more, I once invest matic when the highest price is $ 2.75 and I sell when I really need money, but I made it Matic as the main asset.
Lol you have sold when you need money , the question now is that have you buy back again? or just trying to tell us buying but you are not?
I will only buy a coin that I fully trust but suddenly Matic isn't in my list so far.
I don't know if what's funny with that. If that same scenario happened to you, will you choose to resist the temptation or the feeling when you know that you still have a money that you can get in your crypto investment? If he can buy at the pump then I believe he can also buy when he found out that matic dips a lot plus he said it was his main asset so definitely did. Most of us made btc as our main asset but I won't hate him for that.

There are only people who think already late in btc because its value is already high while some top coins are still cheap and they can always buy a whole of it in multiple quantities. Why don't you try it huh @chato1977, if you haven't yet? Matic is a trusted coin so don't be afraid.
854  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2022/23 Season on: October 24, 2022, 05:11:41 AM
Arsenal this season has been extraordinary, because in the English Premier League Arsenal have only lost one game and one draw. On average, all other matches end in wins, so this can be a bit of an early conclusion that Arsenal will also dominate the Europa League this season until they reach the final. Due to the fact that it has been seen so far Arsenal are clearly very strong in all matches even though the match played today in the Premier League ended in a draw.
Arsenal are in very good form now and their players are very confident in every match. And so now Arsenal team is very difficult to beat against any strong team. They will continue their winning streak in the Europa League. And I think they will be able to reach the semi-finals without a hitch. But becoming champions will not be easy. The Europa League also has several strong teams.
Right now, there is no doubt about their quality and mentality but still they need to improve on away games because they are having issues which needs to fixed before big stage which is important if they want to keep this success until end of this season if they fail to fix their issues then surely they can face consequences as today they ended with draw against a team which are fighting hard for coming out of relegation zone so in next round surely they are going to face quality teams which can create more problems for them.

Here if they want to keep going as leaders then surely give no room to any opponent which give them shock or steal their this lead and win streak in last match against PSV they were playing relaxed so just because of this ended with the score of just 1 - 0.

It's only a matter of time if it is necessary the marketing team will do it and we don't know if they have the budget for it
Last week I saw Berfury twitter post a streamer, have they worked with some streamers? if yes, it means they know the best way to promote
Because collaborating with streamers is the most used way crypto casinos for promotion right now.
Betfury held a Twitch streamer competition in August, and the winner of this competition got a contract with Betfury and brand ambassador status. I agree that streaming is one of the best ways to attract new audiences. However, it's worth noting that Twitch has recently changed its gambling policy. Since October 18, this streaming platform has started to ban the streaming of gambling sites without an appropriate license. As far as I know, Betfury already has a Curacao license, but I don't know if having this license is enough to avoid new Twitch restrictions.
The hunt for the streamer happened on august but the new policy on twitch happened on october. It's clear that betfury didn't expect this. I feel sorry for the chosen streamer because they tried their best only to be chosen and what if twitch remove betfury like what it did with other casinos?

There are still other ways for betfury to do a promotion but maybe they will just provide some cash assistance to the streamer in case the unfortunate things happened. Other sites which have removed by twitch do also have a curacao license so it wasn't the appropriate license twitch are looking for but let see if what can happen in this coming days/weeks.
856  Economy / Economics / Re: Decentralised autonomous global government on: October 23, 2022, 07:28:21 PM
When satoshi thought of a decentralised currency many must have proposed discouragement but today it is a big reality. There is no topic that isn't researchable. It is better to try an idea and fail than never trying it out at all.

A decentralised autonomous global governance where every activity is public and append only can be a reality but it will be fought against by many corrupt nations that still enjoys dictatorship.

If this will work then a consensus mechanism will be put in place. Something more advanced than PoW and PoS which may include  a reward system to keep participants in the network committed to been incorruptible. This is a nice research that can have good proceed if looked into.

This way every government agency will have a unique identifier that keeps track of their activities. A decentralised funding system that will ensure the funds are properly allocated and monitored to see it serves its purpose
I bet those people who shows discouragement are from the corrupt government or from the banks but the rest of the normal individuals are supporting the project proposed by Satoshi Nakamoto, that is why it became successful and still relevant up until now.

A decentralized autonomous global governance can only be good as a plan for now and it is hard for it to become a reality because other governments won't just agree and the number one reason is that they are shady and can be corrupt. If there is a new consensus mechanism that will be made out of this then I think it will be PoH or can be PoT which means proof of honesty and proof of transparency.
857  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Mnemonic is no longer safe? on: October 22, 2022, 08:24:22 PM
I never heard of Coin98 Wallet, and upon checking it out, it seems there is no source code available. Its availability is also only on Chrome.

Mnemonic code generation by a popular and trusted wallet is fine. The seed generation process is secure as it widely can be viewed by those who understand. Until this time, A popular wallet user is safe from any mnemonic code vulnerability that I'm aware of.

The possibility of your friend getting hacked due to personal security issues is more likely than a standard process of mnemonic code generation and potential collision. So without knowing your friend's digital hygiene, it is hard to seek the actual reason for it getting hacked.
Coins98 was once in binance and then later on I just saw they have their own wallet. They are not new though so I think it's kinda trusted. I even created one in my browser extension only for airdrop purposes but I never received my coin on that airdrop that I join but I know it wasn't the fault of coins98. Maybe I am just unlucky.

OP said that malware is the primary suspect for the hack so by there, I think his friends so called "digital hygiene" are not that clean enough and maybe he likes to visit random websites and connect his wallet there. It's also possible that he downloaded the fake version of the wallet since this wallet isn't that popular as the other so the original version may not have that small blue check yet.
858  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar - UEFA Qualifiers on: October 21, 2022, 06:42:31 PM
If Qatar doesn't go to the next stage it would be the first time in history that such event happens.

I think it's quite possible though... we'll have to wait and see.
Not really, South Africa failed to qualify to the knockout round in 2010. They finished 3rd, on equal points with Mexico who progressed due to a better goal difference.
South Africa did overperform though, they collected 4 points in a really difficult group and finished above France, who they also won against.

This time, I feel that the host team will be totally humiliated. Qatar is simply a horrible team.
Here I completely agreed with you about Qatar chances and quality of their game which is surely not good even they are spending good money for increasing quality and skills but still they need good time and experience for this all and most chances they could be ended at third or fourth spot in their group because they have top quality Netherlands, African Champions Senegal and then Ecuador from these only they have fair chance against Ecuador which is tough team but can give them some space just because of Qatar is playing at home and in this big event they will try their best for having positive result against them.

Other teams are surely on high run and not going to give any chance for points, with the Netherlands and Senegal can go through into next round in presence of top players and high quality.

The value and football that Jorge jesus has brought to fenerbahçe is really incredible. I really want to know the underlying problems of an offensive manager coming so late. I enjoy watching Fenerbahce play now. I have been longing to watch such quality and enjoyable matches for a long time. I hope they will continue this football without spoiling and spoiling themselves.
There is no doubt about quality of Fenerbahçe as they are playing with this most chances they could be ended with title Jorge Jesus is doing good job and having good strategy which is helping them for having good results in Turkish League, and they are also at their best in Europa Cup where now they are going to host Rennes on 27th October after playing 2 - 2 draw against them in away game they have good chance for win and staying as group leader.

Right now, we have one match which is playing between the low spotted teams as both looking for safe zone Antalyaspor playing at home and already have disallowed goal through VAR offside but most chances they could be winner as they have good start of this game and their aggressive play can give them benefit and full three points which will bring them out of relegation zone Istanbulspor they could be more down.
860  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Pump and dump for people with small amount of money (Theory) on: October 21, 2022, 03:02:23 PM
As investors we have to be patient waiting for the moment to sell, I have also bought a lot of coins but at an expensive price, the last BNB I bought when the price is around $ 320, then the ETH is around $ 1700, if I sell it now, of course it will lose money, it's better to hold it when the market is currently dump.
what are you talking? you bought BNB at 320? just recently? then yeah you are at loss now so better keep it or change to other altcoins.
but for me BNB is one of the best asset we can keep for safer investments.
Ethereum on the Other hand fails this year about the merging so best to keep it as well for a while or at least till next Bull.
If he bought it recently then that was fine because we are still in a bear but it is not acceptable if he bought it at the bull run. He only think it's expensive maybe because he bought the whole coin. In crypto investing, it's not necessary to buy a 1 whole coin but a portion of the coin can work wonders too. You said bnb is one of the best but why you are suggesting him to switch out to other altcoins?

What if he picked up a bad altcoin during the process? I know you don't want to be blamed. Eth didn't fail about it's merge but it was a successful event. Eth is now POS but people like you, think it was a failure only because it's value got left behind.
