I know that the judges could be traditionalist Undecided Undecided
It would be great to update this thread again after 5 months or after you've defended your thesis. Watch out for the reaction of the judges/panelist and see how their faces look like.
And you'll get to see too how many of them were already into bitcoin. Good luck, you've got a lot of suggestions for your reference.

Good news as usual. When there are some adoptions that happen in any place, let's be happy about it and think that it's becoming more known and popular these days and this is what we need to gain more adoption.
I still got no experience in using a bitcoin ATM as in my place there's not one in existence. And I'd love to use it someday so good thing for those folks that are near to this gas station and other places where there's an existing bitcoin atm.

You haven't heard of the news. By July, it's said that this upgrade is about to happen that shall eliminate the high transaction fees.
(https://finance.yahoo.com/news/ethereum-eip-1559-fee-market-154032902.html)

Yes its happen if consensus accepted that EIP, just hope that implemented will do smoothly.
The miners will fight so hard to cancel that implementation, since they receive many profit from high gas phenomena.
They don't have any force to stop it. ETH is also about to go to POS so miners have already accepted that long time ago. They're just enjoying the profits that they can make while ETH is still mineable.
Because when it's already a POS algo, they'll have to mine another coin and will just have to accept that ETH is already a staking coin.

so What now that Bitcoin had already surpassed 60,000? actually more than 61k $ now?
He's just positive that we're going to reach $100k soon as it has entered $61k.

How Long will it take to reach the 100k ? is this happening in 2021 or in the year to come?
Nobody knows when it will be hitting $100k. It could reach by the end of the year or as you say, next year. But everyone is very encouraged that we're about to see that very soon.

Most of the investors that are waiting for a coin that they invest in are looking out to dump those tokens as quickly as they can. They're all watching for it because they knew that something like dumping would actually happen in the quickest time that they can imagine.
That is the reason why many tokens upon being listed would pump as much as they can but later on, it will also dump. The strategy is that you must be active and very watchful and decisive during those moments.

We have some words from the Rookie.

Malonzo eager to prove he's an 'impact player' as mentor Seigle gives constant advice

I hope he is not only good with his words and he will work more on his actions in the ring.
The last first pick does not have the impact people are expecting, hopefully he will change it and surprise the fans.
I didn't know that Seigle is his advisor. I remember Seigle to be one of the best players in the PBA in history. I was still young by that time when I was watching him but I'm sure to remember that he's playing better than the others.
I hope that all of those advice that he has received from him will bear fruit with his career.
8408  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: March 14, 2021, 11:43:50 PM
It is exciting that most of them can be a contender to the finals.

TNT is good but they seem to have a problem with Ray Parks and that might affect their performance in the coming season.

Nope TNT is strong even if they don't have Parks in the line up and he's so selfish imagine he doesn't prove anything yet and he demand for big salary also he is so stubborn for his team so I think they should let go on him and find better player. I know his strong but for his attitude well maybe it can give a bad effect on their locker room.
I agree, even without him. We know that he's got a problem and even if he's out, they can still make it out.
About the drafts, I've seen some of the drafts from each team, and most of the people say that those drafts from Terrafirma will be soon picked by SMC again.  Tongue
8409  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Don't stay on with a wrong trade on: March 14, 2021, 10:49:03 PM
Some coin doesn't really need to do proper research before regretting the heavy loss it gives on you. Some coin would need to experience some heavy corrections to start pumping again, I discovered there is a better way to go about such situation, the best way is to increase the amount of the token by trading and building the number of token you have even in the heavy loss on you. While holding in loss, you equally increasing quantity, this can only help when market recover.
That's really what happens. When it's going through a massive correction, you're just waiting for a little bit of time for its recovery and reversal. It's the cycle of most of the coins and that's what I've observed too. And I agree about buying if it's in the correction, that's the famous quote about buying low and selling high. Upon buying during corrections, the price gets cheaper and you'll be getting more tokens or coins that you're buying during that time.

Personally, I think defi projects have been overly exaggerated, many defi projects have come out with no contribution to the crypto market.
Defi will certainly become the same past as ICOs and IEOs.
The same thoughts but they really are a thing in the market that can't be ignored. But while defis are covering the market these days with a huge volume coming from them.
There's another craze where everyone is becoming prepared and studying upon learning more from the defis. Both defi and nft are doing it altogether.
There will certainly be a consumer fever preparing to replace defi, the crypto market always needs a new trend to thrive.
Yes, I agree. There will always be a new craze that will be built up year by year. Just like the NFT which has been around I think since 2 years ago and it just got the boom just this year.
And whatever craze that the makers of these styles will do, then definitely it will be the next generation of hype based on the market's need and the community's need for another craze to see.
8411  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which coin I should investmen with 5k dollars? on: March 14, 2021, 10:04:02 PM
ADA does look like a very attractive coin for investment. Even a giant like Grayscale is open to investment in ADA.
Top 5.
An investment firm would be interested in getting coins that are at least on the top 5-10. They have been looking into its volume and liquidity but about the use case, I don't have anything to add with that.
Grayscale is investing a lot in cryptocurrencies and after buying a lot of bitcoin, they're diversifying in alts. Other than ADA, BNB is another good coin that I see with the increase that I've seen in bitcoin. It didn't go back to $300.
8412  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: March 14, 2021, 09:43:15 PM
I've missed the PBA draft a while ago. But it's a good thing that it's on YT and we can watch the recordings of it, I'll watch it later.

They are likely to win a championship again but I'm glad that other teams (although their sister teams) have also improve their line up.

SMB got CJ Perez, and probably a healthy Fajardo and Magnolia already had Calvin Abueva.
Yes, the other teams have noticeably improved their roster too. They just don't want to see other teams getting additional good players on their roster but also them. It is exciting that most of them can be a contender to the finals.
8413  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which is better, ether or bitcoin? on: March 14, 2021, 09:22:21 PM
At the moment I believe that it is better to buy etherium no bitcoin, bitcoin surely will go down soon and start correcting. Just take a look at yearly chart of bitcoin, the jump is absurd - straight up, vertical price action. ETH in the same time has been overlooked because of their transaction fees, it has more room to grow
If bitcoin goes down then Ethereum will follow its lead. Ethereum and the other altcoins are always going wherever bitcoin is going. Just as you notice, when it pumps, ETH and the others are pumping as well.
That's why whenever it's going down, you're also expecting that the other altcoins like ETH will also come down as bitcoin goes down.

it is only 400 usd over its previous cycle highs.
Well, the lowest I've seen for ETH on its last cycle during the bear market was $70-$80.
8414  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do ordinary people feel afraid of Bitcoin? on: March 14, 2021, 09:01:44 PM
Actually, what someone does not know is a not just a problem. It is a huge one! Expect ordinary people to still have fear when Bitcoin is the subject.

Personally, the time I knew nothing (or little) about Bitcoin, I never dreamt about investing in it. However, having come to know a little bit beyond just its name, is why am here.
And that's why for some, they don't want to know about bitcoin. They have no plans of investing in it. Even they knew about the existence of it when they knew the volatility of it, they might reject investing in it.

We are all ordinary people here the only difference between us bitcoin enthusiast and those who are not is that we take the risk. Because we knew there is something much deeper when we first heard the word bitcoin. And maybe some of your friends are afraid due to extreme volatility of crypto market, unlike stocks, investing is much riskier. But high risk high reward game is much more fun to play. But be sure to play with caution, backed by knowledge.
Yeah, the volatility is what they're scared of. They're not willing to take the risk of it and even they start knowing it but when they're afraid of volatility, they'll decline.

Thanks for sharing. But it is sad to see that there were transactions made and that means that there were people who have been a victim of this scam.
The total amount of bitcoin sent was 0.09BTC. That's a lot.  Undecided
The site is few months old and they have already realised this amount I think this is the perfect time to take the site offline as there are thousands of crypto newbies out there who are likely to fall because of the rise in Bitcoin.
It will only be taken down if it's reported to its web host provider. There were many of them and that's just sad to see that there's a balance on it.
The site should really be shut down to avoid more victims going on in and out on this website. With the few months of its existence, there were already few victims that have sent quite a huge amount in today's time.
8416  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: This month’s Ethereum options expiry suggests ETH’s upside is limited on: March 14, 2021, 05:33:54 PM
25% gain for less than half year it still pretty good gain as for me
The same to me. But this is crypto market that's highly volatile and many of us would think that it should be more than that. Why? because we're used to see such gains from time to time and due to its volatility.
We're now expecting a higher percentage in gains and this small gain is actually big for the normal markets like stocks. But in crypto, a gain with that percentage for Ethereum isn't that much because many would be expecting x2, x3 or more than that in gains and returns.

Just a little update on Griffin.

Blake Griffin’s timeline before making Nets debut

Quote
Blake Griffin’s much-awaited debut for the Brooklyn Nets is on the horizon. However, Nets fans will need to wait a bit longer before they see the six-time All-Star take the floor for his new team as Griffin continues to deal with conditioning issues.

According to Nets head coach Steve Nash, Griffin won’t be returning to action anytime soon (h/t Malika Andrews of ESPN):

They are preparing Blake to be fully healthy so he can be a big help in the game.
Team's not rushing him, they are enjoying what the Nets have been doing now, so there's no urgency. the only urgency is fans can't wait to see him.  Smiley
Yes and I'm one of it that can't wait for him to play. Well, if that's the decision. That's okay and they have already a strong roster and they have another one to be added which will make them stronger.
If he needs to be fully recovered first, that's okay so that they can make use of him at the best that he can in good condition.
8418  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2021 NBA Season on: March 14, 2021, 10:28:30 AM

I hope that this time that there will be less injury on their team. Many are eyeing for their team to get into the finals and that's what makes everyone interested about them.

Especially Griffin, his main reason why he signed with the Nets is to be in the Championship and to win. His playoffs experience could contribute to this team, he maybe not part of the starting line up but he will surely get good minutes if he will have a great performance in the playoffs.

These are all stars players, they are not just big 3, they now can call themselves as big 4.

Imagine these players lead their team in the early stage of their career.

1- Irving (Cavaliers)
2-Durant (OKC)
3- Harden ( Rockets)
4-Griffin (Clippers)
Uhm, yeah.
They're now the big 4 and it's really an explosive roster that has been brought to us by the Nets. Before that it was only Irving and Durant, it was already getting the news everywhere and made most of the fans jumped to their team and turns to them as playoffs to finals caliber team.

Exactly, but this could be just big 3 and Griffin needs to prove first that he can be trusted to help the team a win. Only the big 3 gets a big contract while Griffin only gets a veteran contract due to his declining performance in this previous team.
He can be trusted. Nets won't take him if they are not sure what can be the contributions that he can give to the team. A team won't expand with such contracts if they'll getting someone that cannot even help them to reach the playoffs and finals.
But we will see his games soon.

I don't know the credibility of their claims, but i have come across quite a number of games online, where you are asked to play to earn btc, lol.

Have you come across any games like that?
If so, did you really earn any btc?
What's the name of the game? It will help if you can name those games that you've come crossed with. AFAIK, there were games that paid their players but in the form of token. And the games that I know, don't really pay you in bitcoin.
But you can earn bitcoin or any form of exchange there through selling in game items and other stuffs that you can farm on the game.
