861  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: chart reading and prediction on: September 24, 2023, 10:36:00 PM
everyone on twitter, insta reel and youtube is making prediction related to different cryptos based on chart lines. Do you still believe these chart reading?
Would you rather believe in your guts or expectations and just jump on a trade without having any logical explanation as to why?

The charts is what we’ve got. Getting to define those support level and resistance level to the candles, using your trend line and RSI to determine direction and strength of the persistent side in the market (bulls or bears). At least, it makes more sense than just jumping in and placing trades based on sentiments.

I don't understand how there are people who follow these analyzes without them learning/understanding it first.
Being able to deduct the codings in an analysis simply means you understand it. At least to some level but, the point should be, you having to be the one that comes up with the analysis.
Those that might just follow without understanding are traders and it could easily be an issue of the blind, leading the blind.

Please take the time to look around the forum for answers before making a thread for each question you might have or at least put all your questions in 1 thread.

Your merit question has been answered.
I didn’t want to respond to this thread as I feel no further value could be added to what is already said but,

Your sense of politeness or approach to the behavior and thread is something worth noting or commending.
As a legendary, while most would just be direct in response to the matter, you took a rather gentle approach and seal the deal.

I hope the deal is sealed though and OP understands what needs to be done in other situations rather than creating threads for just a single line question.

Be curious and sort means to satisfy your curiosity but, don’t abuse privileges. In essence, be creative with your approach @OP.

Took -12 hits to have a dream team! What's stopping this team from 80 points this weekend?


I had to trip back to look at this again and now I think I have the answers,
Douglas Luiz, Marcus Rashford, J. Rashford and Raheem Sterling. They all did justice to your wet dreams 80 points, lol!

Shared in your faith with J. Alvarez and I can’t stop looking at Rodri with a bombastic side eye.

You know, I sort of took you up in what you said about Isak. Well, it was almost true that he was to catch the bench for the entire game but, since Sheffield United was sharing goals today, it was only right for the striker to come in and make one count for him. Some plus on the bench!

Speaking of which, A. Ramsdale did zero out on my team and so was my second choice goalkeeper yet, I’ve got Isak and Tarkowski on the bench with some good points. Do I expect either of them to count in place as it’s done with other positions on the team or the choices for goalkeepers are left with goalkeepers. I really do need that 14 points for catch ups.
864  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Elon Musk keep what he said or not? on: September 24, 2023, 08:24:34 PM
But now, because of this article from 5 days ago, over 50% of the energy used for Bitcoin mining now comes from renewable sources. Because Elon Musk mentioned in 2021 that they will only accept bitcoin for payment again "once miners were using roughly 50% energy sources" with a positive future trend.

That said, Bloomberg analyst Jamie Coutts, CMT,
I wonder why this article to have been published just 5days ago from thread creation to have been so when, we are expecting a halving in months.
What could have been the plan? If any.

Well, I think anyone in the cryptospace wouldn’t look towards what Elon Musk has yo say or not. He might be the world’s richest man for his ideas and choices of investments but, having to follow him up on every shit he flushed down the toilet isn’t what any wise person would be doing after his scandal at the time.

He’s a business man and as such, you could expect him to create wealth using whatever means, even as statements and truths be told, he could as well withdraw his statements and nothing would change for him.

Don’t be hinged on that and have no expectations from Musk.
865  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why Is Bitcoin Price Increasing? on: September 24, 2023, 05:27:36 PM
There are a lot of people who are waiting for the Bitcoin halving next year, so it would be very reasonable to expect a price drop if there is an intention from many people to buy more Bitcoin.
How is that any reasonable expectation on…
That an expectation of a halving to account for a price drop? The opposite is usually the case and what should be expected. Halving counts towards reduction of block reward to miners, Bitcoin investors tend to hoard at this time by hodling on wallets in airgapped device and many other means to hodling, hodling leads to scarcity and scarcity leads to buy pressure on bitcoin. That becomes relative to altcoins as well so,
How should we expect a price drop again…?

Quote
But personally, I just don't want to see more price drops in Bitcoin because some people only talk about wanting to buy more Bitcoin when the price drops, but in reality there are still people who are afraid to buy when they see another price drop in Bitcoin. But if it's only a drop of $25K, that's still pretty good because it's not too different from the current price.
Yeah. The idea would be a price drop to open up a buying opportunity but people always anticipate for further dumps and tends to wait but what happens, price pushes back up and in there continued anticipation on further dumps, they miss what they had been waiting on.
That’s why, yo DCA when you have the funds to invest is always a more acceptable option.
866  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: My first knowledge in Bitcoin/Bitcointalk on: September 24, 2023, 05:12:30 PM
So if I make any mistake in any of my writing, please correct me. I am open to correction.

It’s Bitcoin not bitcion same goes for Bitcointalk not Bitciontalk.
These are mere misconceptions and typographical errors. In terms of corrections such as the first case involving Bitcoin with an upper case ‘B’ and that of bitcoin with a lower case ‘b’, pointing out the difference would do more clarification to what’s wrong with it and in turn, bring about the consciousness for OP and users when they come across or what to say the word than just laying it out there.

It’s a common mistake and even I could make such mistakes but, if I would like to say something to OP on typos, I’ll say, you should do a run down on your composure after writing and you might see a few things to correct.

when someone send bitcion to a recipient, a minor must mine the cions in the blockchain before the recipient will receive the coin.
A little something here. Miners don’t get to mine already mined bitcoins. Like, just how does that happens or sounds to you. Like these coins are already in circulation and what happens yo initiated transactions is a confirmation on them into the blockchain. No further mining is required.
867  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [banned mixer] 🦁 Fantasy Premier League Pool ⚽ Discussion Thread on: September 24, 2023, 04:52:20 PM
I wanted to go for Son, but my friend who really follows football and knows what he's talking about told me that he thinks Rashford will be in top 3 league's goalscorers.
Therefore I chose him instead of Son - but to be honest neither one of them is worth 9 points. The problem is that Son at least got the price upgrade, while Rashford went the other way.
Rashford only found his way into my team because of the health challenge on Bowen. Saw that he was will and Rashford felt like the next best option but, I was surprised Bowen actually featured for the West Ham United game and even got more points than i can say for Rashford.
Son was on the list of options but, mixed feelings and price difference didn’t let me make the pick.

Nobody rates Rashford except the English media. I remember him scoring 30 goals last season and the media comparing him to Mbappe, and then he started ghosting in games for months.
One word on the ratings, ‘England’. Like I can’t even imagine how they would come to that comparison. On how one man can and that’s Mbappe could carry a whole country (France and PSG) and the weight doesn’t seem too weighty for him and you compare that individual with Rashford!

Rashford's selfish behaviour in the 18 yard box makes it difficult for him to have a clear chance for goal, always trying to run in-between tight spaces instead of playing with his teammates. I'm keeping close tap on him.
I don’t blame him for that, he’s been top dog for his team through last season and it’s only natural to have him have much expectations on himself, trying to repeat the same thing this season but, at the expense of his team not making there chances count.
868  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Could Satoshi have known? on: September 23, 2023, 11:28:51 PM
Maybe we are wrong to think that Satoshi never had the thought that bitcoin was going to become very volatile and people were going to be able to make money from how the  price of bitcoins changes easily. Satoshi is someone that has insight and was able to make this system that has been able to survive and is doing well after a long time of creation, do you think that it never occurred to him that people may start investing in bitcoins instead of really using it for buying and selling?
To infer into what Satoshi Nakamoto is thinking or could have thought at the genesis age of bitcoin would be to ask the shapeless or formless figure.
You’ve already said it yourself, Satoshi Nakamoto had a long insight and the bitcoin innovation and all that is happening now could have been considered. I mean, economics and statistics has been around and having to create a limited 21million bitcoin for a world population without putting a price mark on it,,,
Satoshi Nakamoto has got to understand that the innovation would choose the way it would go until it attains some worth price that could serve a world population and even then, the volatile nature, the fluctuation in its price would not be totally vanquished.

Investors might do as they please but, this isn’t any disappointment and people are out there using bitcoin as they please.
869  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Gives the poor an Opportunity. on: September 23, 2023, 11:18:53 PM
Opportunity to earn? Yes, but it has limitations. With Bitcoin as an investment, obviously you’ll need money to earn by holding and waiting for its market price to increase. Indeed there are ways to earn from this industry in particular with services or projects but there are also limitations in particular with requirements to participate. Maybe if it was 4 years ago, there were so many options and requirements weren’t that hard to comply. I remember the first projects I have worked and participated with which really have helped me to make a start in this industry.
Opportunity to earn are everywhere and you remain qualified when you’ve got a skill set to offer. Bitcoin just veined an addition to the lots of varieties that exists in our world. Even writing in itself is a skill and that some of the most exploited on the forum, writing!

For one to be able to make some good profit from bitcoin, you must have either the finance to invest by buying and hodling for a long term which is something most of the people we regard as poor (practically those who feed from hand to mouth if you know what I mean; having to live day to day) can’t do.
Just how do they get that spare cash to invest when that’s fund to feed with for the day!

When you have a skill set of value and could be hired for it, then that’s a different story. Even then, you need other resources like technology to meet up the ends.
It’s not a complete haven that doesn’t asks nothing of you, you’ve got to have some level of resource and what to offer.
870  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What was the idea behind the creation of Bitcoin? on: September 23, 2023, 11:08:44 PM
I don't think people are still don't understand what is Bitcoin and the use cases, after all you're keep repeating a common discussion over and over.
At the level of you ‘not having to think’, the statement is indeed valid but then, maybe you, I and the host of other experienced forum users that shares this space don’t care much about this piece of information but, with the number of users that registers in the forum everyday, the info could prove useful to them and it obviously opens the thread up to new replies as not very often are old threads being bumped for update.

We’ve been seeing threads like this and we just might have to be accustomed to seeing some more because, it ain’t stopping soon. You can always expect users to act their level of understanding as to what is perceived to be necessary or not.

32 posts you posted in this forum are consist of 22 threads and 10 replies, there's no one force you to keep creating a new thread.
This part to your comment got me diving into OP’s post history to see what’s been going on and his got some good threads to show for it. Like the one that talks about Airgapping an old desktop device. His merit to post ratio don’t make him exactly a bad poster and you aren’t saying that either but, I’ll understand with you on OP having to reduce the way he or she creates thread and try searching out informations on the forum as well.
871  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Earnings on: September 23, 2023, 10:53:07 PM
I am a newbie in bitcoin I want to learn a lot about bitcoin I want to do marketing and trading with bitcoin if any of you are expert or if someone is more skilled please give me some suggestion so that I can do something good and my future is good.  can shine through bitcoin and i can stay away from casino and gambling games and without these two means i can earn money in my life and i can work hard to earn bitcoin everyone.
Bitcoin or cryptocurrencies don’t assure you of a future, your skills and how you apply them is what gives you that assurance. It’s a good thing you wish to learn with hopes of earning from cryptocurrency and I’ll urge you to stay the path, acquiring as much knowledge as you can and develop schemes that would aid you in archiving your goal.

Know that bitcoin is a currency and not entirely an investment although, it’s volatile nature is one that provides its hodlers with some profit for hodling over time, it is in itself a currency still.

I would also like to advise that you keep off trading in your early days and interactions with the cryptospace. It’s a highly sophisticated space that doesn’t recognize beginners and have a very unfriendly environment.
Instead of trading at the moment or seeking that for a goal, be focused on learning about bitcoin and its technology, how it operates, what moves it, how to analyze its market conditions and how you could use it safely and securely.

When your grounded in these, then you could move on to practicing trading and be ready for some disappointments before the wins.
872  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season on: September 23, 2023, 09:32:01 PM
Liverpool has been the bone of contention on this thread as they stand to be the favorite for almost everyone, but then let's not forget that Liverpool is also participating in the premier league and the Europa at same time although they failed to qualify for the UCL they are still hopeful they will next season.participating in this two leagues could be tasking at some point.
As far as we would like to look at the EPL as one (if not) the toughest league on the planet, I would like to add that it is so because of the type of teams that is present in the league of which, Liverpool is by far one of the very best. Now, coming to Europa which happens to be what they’ve got for now in the absence of the UCL, it’s only natural that we have a lot of expectations on them.

I expect of them to have easy games and easy wins in this Europa but, no. What we see is a struggling Liverpool, even with the top coach and world class players.
Put Manchester City in same situation and you would see a second 11 coming on the pitch yo make a huge difference. We aren’t placing expectations that is more than Liverpool can handle on them, we are simply asking them to show there worth and quality.

"Perfect" FPL day, everybody brings in Alvarez he gets one pointer. Now it is time for Jackson to haul. My transfers Edouard, Botman and Mbuemo also look like total miss. Botman is probably even injured and that also means Chilwell will haul tomorrow.
He’s been on my team for a while now but, it’s really disappoint what how Rodri got to mess the whole game plan up today. I was already expecting an over 4.5 goals in this game judging from the way it started, with Foden and the early goal, E. Haaland did good to extend the lead and Nottingham Forest playing like scared little girls but, just seconds into the second half, Rodri thought it was wise to over react and caught a straight red! Like, it was an out of the blue reaction and just like that, the whole game was messed up, Manchester City came under pressure, Pep had to sort for a more defensive approach and there was my dear Alvarez having yo pay the price on the bench.
Rodri did this one today!

hope to see Botman on the bench tomorrow
have Jensen and Tarkowski on my bench, and hope to see two players from my line-up on bench, Botman is first pick, Gusto second pick
I so much don’t wish to see Lamptey on the pitch for Brighton tomorrow. Just how did I get to get Tarkowski off the pitch to the bench and brought Lamptey in at the least minute! Like, how am I doing this to 11 points that could have easily gone to the bag.
Lamptey better does something more or close tomorrow or better still, catches the bench and zero out.
874  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A Bug or Fat Finger Reason for the Bitcoin’s 87% Drop in 2021 on: September 22, 2023, 05:51:31 PM
According to the reports an EX-employee reported inside news that actually it was a fat finger act where by mistake the order was misplaced by the decimal point error. Sam Bankman-Fried's Alameda caused this drop. Obviously, Baradwaj said Alameda lost $millions. 

A Second question did Alameda offer a refund?

To follow more on the story you can have a look here

I mean, why shouldn’t they?
It was an honest mistake and was followed by honest trades by several traders who have spent time on the market looking for opportunities and this one opened up for them so legally, traders who took opportunity of this drop did no flaws. I can’t say for sure but, based on the quote below,
Quote
But because it had been an honest mistake, there wasn't much to do except to implement additional sanity checks for manual trades,” Baradwaj added.
It’s seems all was in agreement for them to have their withdrawals in peace as should be the case. What seemed to have been done is an improvement on the means of placing orders in the market. Thanks yo there honest mistakes, mistakes such as that would be uncommon. A prices mistake indeed but, it’s the cryptospace and such a had thing for the organization to deal with but, they’ll deal with it.

What’s the conversation rate for 700,000baht against the USD? Can somebody do that for me?

Meanwhile, I went through the whole story with the provided link and it wasn’t really about bitcoins but, it’s been staged as the excuse here. I think bitcoin is being victimized in this whole dispute as, it was already a failed relationship between them both else, why would a couple live apart and why was the supposed husband scared the said wife would cheat on him.

The husband went too far and was really in on having the divorce option off the table for them but, the length he went is one that doesn’t fix any problems but instead, destroys the possibility of any further relations.

Living someone so much shouldn’t be showed in your quest to take their life rather than have anyone else have them but, in the sacrifices you could endure to enable them have there best and you share in there joys in life.
876  Economy / Economics / Re: Free Investment tips on: September 22, 2023, 05:10:03 PM
While free education is readily available on the internet, I believe that those willing to invest a bit of money in their education take a step forward. Self-learning indeed comes with the advantage of freedom, but it is not necessarily more effective than having a teacher.

Certainly, this is an option, whether to opt for paid education or free education. In my opinion, there's no loss in spending money to enhance the quality of one's mind and self.
When you spend money to educate yourself and you don’t get to talk about loses even with you not using whatever certification or benefiting directly from the studies, there’s always benefit in having to expand your scope about a field. Knowledge is application and application doesn’t mean it’s going to remain within that scope of specialty, you could relate to other fields and still benefit off it.

Free learning have got lots of limitations on it and most times, what’s been offered it’s just at the surface and more like a teaser, an enlightenment to make you seek more. It’s limited.

While there might be free education and self education, in order to do exploit, having a teacher brings you closer to your goal. You not only learn from there experiences and expertise, you get to upgrade on it.
877  Economy / Economics / Re: Small Scale Business Ideas on: September 22, 2023, 03:52:47 PM
Do you have a small business idea? or business experience? I want to hear it
It almost feels as though your asking for proposals of which you would like to invest in when you say, you’ll like to hear it.

Anyway, you have to understand that business ideas do thrive in one region more than the other which depends on the available resources and if the services to be provided is a much need one. In the search for ideas, you could do a survey within your locality, search within yourself to determine what service your not sufficiently getting and what it takes you to satisfy such service.
Then you can do a survey on it and keep options open for more ideas.

One business that has proven to stand through time is the good business. Humans can’t do without food and as such, your sure to sell. You could as well provided what is more common in an area within an area of scarcity. Local importation and make money off it.

You mustn’t always need your own capital to start but, if you do, then it’s okay. You can serve as an intermediary but, never connecting your buyers with your supplier. You make the connections by becoming the chain link and make money off it. It’s not that simple as presented but, it’s achievable.
878  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Warning] Don't share your casino account! on: September 22, 2023, 01:21:33 PM
I have a very bad experience in regards to being connected to a launderer due to P2P on the exchange so I decided to create this warning thread for the fellow gambler. Never share your casino account to anyone here especially those so-called whale bettors because you might be connected to whatever shit they are doing illegally.
I haven’t really thought of it that way as, a bet fixing syndicate but, that could easily be the case with whale gamblers. I mean, my ideas has always limited me to what damage they could do with your account, having it blocked and funds confiscated and all that but, it’s interesting to know how wide it gets.

I am curious though,
What was your experience with on the situation, how damaging was it? Without making speculations, I’ll like to see what it was.

While most would be skeptical of this offer, there are some greedy gamblers that would easily play into there part. One time last year, I saw a user create a thread with this sort of offer.
Don’t forget, it’s against betting company policies that, you take bets for another user or bet unbehalf of or any form or representation gambling. We all know what happens when this is found out and so, which ever way you might reason it, it’s not a chastised practice and should be avoided.
879  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: September 22, 2023, 01:09:45 PM
I think this pressure is one reason for Onana to make mistakes like we saw in the game against Bayern Munich from this goalkeeper.
He even said he disappointed the whole team because of that bad performance he had.
Can’t say I like to see him this way but yeah, the pressure and expectations on him is gradually getting to him but, the interesting thing about him is, he’s able to realize his role in the defeat and that is the first step to getting better. He was unusually nervous and that foul produced a lot of mistakes. The first goal which ought to have been an easy save did set him up on trying to avoid more mistakes as he had to try and overdo himself to avoid more goals but, that wasn’t the case. I don’t blame him very much on the second goal, he was already cornered in trying to prevent Jamal Musiala from having a good sight at the goal and eventually, left the post open for Serge Gnabry who wasn’t going to miss such a graced chance. Manchester United was just off but, we can expect more from there next encounter if they could manage it.

Manchester United problem is a coaching problem and a tactical problem and the coach Erik Ten Hag needs to change his approach to games; and make tactical changes to change the face of the team.

One thing is certain; if poor performances persist; the coach job is on the line.
Eric Ten Hag prioritizes discipline in his team and I can’t say he isn’t doing enough for Manchester United. He’s been doing the most for this team but, it’s a matter of time before the team picks up. Don’t forget, the team was in much disarray when he took up the job and has done greatly with the team ever since, even getting them to the UCL.
