8501  Economy / Speculation / Re: What will governments do next to manipulate Bitcoin? on: July 01, 2020, 04:29:16 AM
In my opinion, governments already have done everything that they could against bitcoin. So They don't have any way to down bitcoin again. Now if they are really interested about bitcoin & want to do something, then that will "Remove A Ban On Bitcoin & promote it". And That will be a good sign for bitcoin. Without this, they don't have anything to do
Or they are trying to search another way to manipulate bitcoin or spreads about the fake news related to bitcoin. We don't know what they already did because they will not tell the public, and they are using a secret way, which makes us guess. If they don't do anything and don't spread the negative side of bitcoin, I think that will be a good thing for bitcoin because that means bitcoin can spread among the people can use bitcoin without any worry of the government.

I started practicing cigarettes since I was 9 years old. Regular smoking starts from the age of 12. Now I am 26 years old, I'm trying hard to give up smoking, but can not do  not? Can someone give me some good advice to quit smoking?
O my gosh!! You are practicing cigarettes from when you were only 9 years old!!! Seriously?   Huh I'm sure, then it's already a part & parcel in your life. Well it's not possible to quit it easily. Try to quit 2/3 Ciggarate in a week. I think thus you can control yourself and easily quit Ciggarate
In some country, it is normal to see a child smoke, and they took their daddy cigarettes Grin

We don't know why their parents allow them to smoke, but hm maybe it's because their habit in that society, so we will feel that it is strange and weird to see a child less than 10 years old are smoke in front of adult people.
8503  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Shitcoins unite! on: July 01, 2020, 03:32:46 AM
It is difficult to unite the shitcoins or altcoin because each project will have its own purposes why they create the project. Each project will not have the same vision, but many projects will have the same reason to make money from the crypto world. It is better to let the project run for their purposes, and meanwhile, we can try to make money from each project. But I wonder why the OP doesn't want to explain what he means, so we do not only guess of what he wants.
8504  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is it just me or there are others who have same thoughts? on: July 01, 2020, 03:04:51 AM
If the new project listed on the exchange, the dump will coming for the new token/coin because the investors and the bounty hunters want to make money from the project. It is normal to see what will happen in many new projects, but maybe the developer can prevent the dump or join with the dump, which means the developer can sell their token at a price. But some new token will get a pump for a second after the new token listed on the exchange, so I think the developer can sell their token at the high price.
8505  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker games that are providing free plays to earn real money on: July 01, 2020, 02:41:25 AM
It seems to me when the stakes are not high enough you will not take the game seriously, and it will not bring you proper pleasure.
But the disappointment that you spent a lot of time and as a result did not work out, can ruin your day.

In any case, I speak to myself. I am sure there are people who get true satisfaction from the poker game itself, even treating free tournaments with full responsibility.
If the stakes are too high and that person can feel seriously about the game, I think he is a risk-taker because he only becomes serious if the stakes are high. It is not good if we are too serious with the game because that can make us forget another thing that we need to do, for example, we need to stop the game at the right time before we lose more money. But it is difficult to find free tournaments out there, and if it's available, maybe the tournaments will be at the online gambling website.
8506  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FOX prepared to add virtual fans and crowd noise to NFL broadcasts on: July 01, 2020, 02:04:56 AM
It's temporary so the players will still get the feel and motivated to win their games maybe a year from now, all of these will just become a memory, we all want to get to normal and see and feel what we all missed but for now, we have to find a way to enjoy what we want to enjoy while keeping ourselves and our fans safe, and this is a very innovative idea.

I think it's not for a player's motivation as they are always motivated and giving their best to the game.

FOX just thinks of a way to still carry the presence of being in the usual event even in reality there is no live audience.

They say "broadcast" so it meant to the television viewers.
When they win, they will be always motivated to win more. But I don't think that will happen with the teams who lose because their spirit will go down because of the high tension and they will feel it is not easy to get motivated. The audience's presence can bring their motivation back to the stadium, so they will rise and try to survive and even try to win. But it is a beginning from FOX, and I am sure that if everything is under control, FOX will think the other way to bring the audience to the stadium.
8507  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What is the best welcome offer for you? on: July 01, 2020, 01:39:02 AM
agree with your view..  sometimes the "welcome" bonus is often used (HIT & RUN) and IMO is not very effective in increasing the interest of newcomers to stay on the site for a long time.  bonuses for players who are the most active or play the most types of games can be an effective way to stimulate old players to stay afloat or make outsiders glance to join in..
Hit & Run for the gambler? I don't think that will work every time they try the new gambling site because it depends on the luck itself. If you are lucky, then yes, you can withdraw that money by winning some gambling games. But if not, you need to deposit more money and play more round, but that will be back to your luck again. The bonuses will be good marketing to invite more people to come, but sometimes, if people see that the bonuses are not good enough to attract them, they will not visit that website.

It seems to me that a similar strategy Hit and Run will use professional bonus abusers. Indeed, for beginners, the first victory, as a rule, only kindles the taste of the game.
But even instant luck will not allow you to withdraw bonus money, they will have to win back for some time, that's how casino bonuses are arranged. Otherwise, there would be significantly more abusers.
I do not mind wagering bonuses for a long time, but I would prefer that these bonuses be the more the longer I play, and not vice versa.
When beginners can get their first winning, they will have two options, which is to stop playing gambling or continue playing gambling. They will feel that gambling is attractive and can give some money to them. While they can not withdraw the bonus money, they will play more rounds because they think that if they can win in the next few rounds, they will have a chance to withdraw the money. I think that is not worth it because they don't have too big chance to win.
8508  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin trading in India is on fire on: July 01, 2020, 12:52:40 AM
It will certainly be after a court ruled in India that the use of cryptocurrencies have been legalized. I believe there were investors in India that wanted to invest in cryptocurrencies but they feared the rules but now that all these rules have been lifted they are at liberty to do of their own volition.
I guess some of them already invest in cryptocurrencies by secretly. They don't say to anybody except their closest friends or family because they don't want to break the rules. If the Indian government can lift the rules, I think that can encourage people to use crypto as their investment, and even they will try to get involved in the blockchain technology as other people. But I guess the rule is not to stay for a long time, and someday, the rule will be changed, so people can invest in cryptocurrency by free.

That's very possible as this forum alone has Indian local section and you can see that they have been here long time already. So of course, the time that it was not yet accepted by the government, they were very careful in disclosing their crypto activities to avoid such punishment. But since it is already legalized, it means, they are now free to deal with crypto and not be frightened for what may happen to them.
If everything can be legalized, it will make people free to use crypto, and people will try to obey the rule. But if something has a positive thing for people, but they can not use it because of the license, people will still try to use by secretly. They will try to prevent tracking from the government, and they don't want to make a deal with their government. Maybe that is happening in the country in which crypto is not yet legalized.
8509  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Always consider and be a wise investor! on: June 30, 2020, 07:33:50 AM
the point is if you want to invest in any project, the first thing you need to do is research more about the project, then continue about what products they want to offer to the market and ensure as much as possible about them be it the developer and team background, the product , investors, project partners and the communities in it.
Crypto projects are most times unpredictable, I have seen projects that offers good services and have good background, better use case and partnerships too and the project died two years later, research is a part but won't safe your ass every time, only investing what you can afford to lose will safe you.
That is because the team can not survive in a hard situation or they have an intern problem between each member of the teams. Many possibilities might happen to that project, and I think they will not tell the public because that can make the project lose investors' trust. But they already lost the trust if they don't want to transparent to their investor. The teams need to ensure that the project can survive by doing anything as they can to pass the hard situations because they are solid teams, but the fact is they can not show that to the public.

8511  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will a BTC bull market begin in July? on: June 30, 2020, 06:30:00 AM
based on what usually happens at the beginning of the month, prices usually go up high. usually, the price will pump close to the price of $ 10k or even up to that price. For July, I want to believe that high pump prices will start that month. Well, this is still uncertain, but the hope for a new month is still great.
Tomorrow will be the first day in July, so we can see what will happen. If the price can get a high pump, then the price will break $9,200 and keep increase. Otherwise, the price will be staying at a price now, or even the price will be down for more. We don't expect the price to go down below $9k, but if that is what happens, there is nothing we can do. But we have a good time to buy bitcoin at a low price.
8512  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Is it possible to retrieve my invested BTC from Plustoken? on: June 30, 2020, 05:48:29 AM
Once you send your bitcoin to any investment program out there such as Plustoken or another platform, you can not withdraw your money, plus you can not get any profit because your money is long gone before you realize. If you already have bitcoin, that will be the investment itself, and you don't need to use any other investment type, no matter what the name is. So there is nothing you can do right now except to accept what happens to you. Next time, don't use the other investment just to expect to make more bitcoin because that will be impossible.
8513  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: "Poker Tournaments" are reopening little by little. on: June 30, 2020, 04:27:46 AM
My newsfeed is mostly composed of previous poker games and some with celebrity poker game tournaments for A cause or something. I must say that I miss watching live poker competitions for educational and entertainment purposes, of course.

I like what Ryker1 posted, and I saw that as about that facemask as well. It's quite expensive for a facemask, but it should be required if playing in poker to see the expressions or something.

There is no need in such masks, as long it is arranged as in the pictures in this thread. The plexiglass dividers at the tables between players are much more effective than those expensive masks and no dividers, that's why they(in casino) have chosen this option.
They still need to wear masks because after they stop playing gambling and want to go out of that place, they should wear masks. The masks will be other protocols that they should use to obey the government's rule when they are in the public area. That plexiglass dividers can be applied in the poker games, but it will better if they can wear a mask too.
8514  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Poker games that are providing free plays to earn real money on: June 30, 2020, 04:04:41 AM
In fact we can still see many people are playing even with faucet only, those people are trying so hard to build up balance my playing with few satoshi in a hope to win more. Without a doubt they need to spend some hours to play with pennies, but they still do it. They must have at least a reason why they do something for pennies or even for nothing. In case of playing poker, it is better if they are enjoying the game without caring about the prize. It is even better than just playing poker game on free software that gives them nothing. So it can be related to "fun play".
Maybe the fun play fact will be their reason to use the faucet to playing gambling instead of depositing some money because they think that they don't need to deposit money if they only search the fun thing. In that way, they don't even think about the prize because they realize that they can not make a big win with little money, so they play without heart feeling. And if somehow, they lose, they can use the faucet to get a free coin and continue to play other gambling games.

8516  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FOX prepared to add virtual fans and crowd noise to NFL broadcasts on: June 30, 2020, 02:58:11 AM
I can understand if they’ll introduce it into broadcast matches from TV screens to increase the interest of the audience, but I don’t understand what is the point of introducing this directly into the matches themselves. After all, someone will have to sit and press buttons for various gaming moments, thereby creating artificial noise. Obviously, the AI will not cope with this, which means that the role of the "crowd" will be played by one or a group of people. This is comparable to the artificial applause played from a tape recorder.
I think the sound will be like at the game Soccer, which we can hear the sound of the virtual audience if we can make a goal. That person will have a job to push the buttons for any bad or good moments, but the commentator will still be used to the match. I think the AI is not too necessary because they can record the sound from the game or the other sources. But it will not be as good as the real audience who come and watch the match.

It would be nice to somehow implement the idea when the voice of a person sitting at home was transmitted through a microphone to the stadium, but I'm afraid it is technically too difficult to implement.
I think the biggest work is now assigned to the commentator, because it will be he who will crush the intensity of emotions during the match, which means that the noise of the stands will be adjusted for him.
I don't think it will be easy to use a microphone at home to be transmitted in the stadium because that needs more work to see. Besides that, I can not imagine how it will be if many microphones transmitted at the same time in the stadium. It is better to use the commentator in the stadium, which explains what is happening in the field while we can watch the match at our home.
8517  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: DO NOT TRUST TO TETHER on: June 30, 2020, 02:26:18 AM
how about other Stablecoin, tether are audited by regulator and managed by big company, i don't think you're argue is valid
Some people may not believe it again after tether has stated if they were not fully backed by the dollars. I know even some people were accusing this has a backdoor to frozen the user's amount.
This is more than a year i have been using tether and so far i never encounter any problem even i leave it on my cold wallet.
People can do as you do, and I think that can save the value of the money in the crypto. With the volatility of the crypto price itself, Tether can be a way for us to keep the amount of money that we have, while we can directly buy any coins at the market, especially if we can see the price drops too deep. Maybe people don't like to hold Tether for a while because they can not make a nice profit, but Tether itself can save them from the dump for the coin.
8518  Economy / Economics / Re: China economy and how they handle Covid-19. on: June 30, 2020, 01:40:57 AM
The news can be turned over to be fake while we don't know the truth. I think there is a secret conspiracy among the government which wants to test the biological weapon, and they don't think that the effect will be like this. If this pandemic is really from Wuhan, and it is happening because of intentional factors, then they need to respond to what happened to many countries, which got the impact of Covid-19. We don't want to see this is happening again in the future, and we need to remind them that it is enough to see how people died in the hospital.

Though I am not in the conspiracy side, but I believe Chinese government had some sort of concealment regarding the true number of their Covid deaths. I have read several articles months ago that in China, a lot of those relatives who died from this disease were not included in the tally or they died at home owed to crowding in hospitals. So we don't know the real number of death cases they have and the ongoing stats.
Yes, I agree about that. I think they don't tell the truth about the Covid-19 itself, the number of people who died because of Covid-19. So it is a bit impossible if they say that they can cure people in a short time as we see in the news. I think that is included in the conspiracy theory because they don't want all of the government to know the truth. But there is another theory which tells that the virus has been developed in China, and they want to see what is the impact on people or the virus itself is leak by some coincidence thing that happens in the lab. I don't know, and I don't overthink that, better to keep healthy right now.

It is really difficult to stay positive in this pandemic because we need to think about how to survive and still earn money like other people. But if we can remember that many people that are not as lucky as us, we can feel that we are a lucky person who can still survive until now. The important thing here is we can have grateful that we can pass every day, every hard moment in our life, and we still have a good future like others. Well, we need to remind that need to wash our hand and keep healthy.
