Well, they may not have those star players but these players are still NBA players. Getting into the league is like a lottery because out of the many talented basketball players in the world, they are the chosen few so can be said that it's still a strong team but can be stronger with the stars.
Looking at your comment and analyzing the US basketball team, they're still an excellent team, even not with their star players but with a second unit (2nd team) or even a third unit (3rd team), they are a dangerous team and have chances to be the champions of this world cup...
No doubt that the US has always been a contender in the FIBA world cup regardless of the roster they're sending. I agree that whether they're a major pick or 2nd pick or so, they're still great players. They also have a great coaching staff so that shouldn't be no problem for them as the players just need to play the game and basketball and no need to think about coaches, unlike our national team.  Undecided

although, there are still other teams that are playing extremely good and that will be a great opponent for the US, mainly Canada!
Yes, Canada is no doubt another contender.

There are no experience mate Grin you lose  as a beginner to become a stronger trader  Smiley so for everyone out there thinking of QUITTING QUITTING is not the option here just keep learning  till you  can say "Gone are those days " Grin
It's okay to quit because if trading isn't for you, you know it. In fact, most of the traders are even losing and this isn't just for those folks thinking that they can quickly cash money unless they've been here for so long and are already experienced. But honestly speaking, those beginners that are starting to trade, if you're thinking of doing this as a business, you'll have to go through a lot of losses before you'll actually start making money. It may be harsh and hard but that's really the process of trading don't be too gullible with those people sharing their wins if they are not even sharing their losses.

Most of these big companies want to acquire cheap Bitcoins before any possible take off. That's what usually is the news before the bull run but don't get distracted by them, buy bitcoin, and don't depend on them. Look at how they desire to collect as much Bitcoin as possible. We as individual investors, have to do and execute our plans, and let's just news these rumors and news to be favorable to us based on the actions that we're going to do. It may be good or bad news but if you're for the long term, there is nothing to get worried with.

Pa share ng experience kabayan pag ma try mo, hehe.. Medyo malayo ako sa lugar na sinasabi, kaya no choice online transaction nalang ako.
Kapag ma try ko, sa ngayon wala pa at hindi ko pa alam kung kailan ako makakapag trade sa mismong OTC dito sa bansa natin. Okay lang naman kung online transaction dahil mas safe din naman yan at kung walang OTC sa lugar ninyo, mas mabuti nang gawin lahat ng transactions online.

Maliban sa coins.ph, madali rin namang gamiting ang p2p ng Binance.
Ok din naman ang Binance P2P basta kung saan tayo mas comfortable magtrade at tingin natin ay sulit na sulit ang exchange, doon tayo. Ang kinagandahan lang ngayon, madami dami na tayong mga choices sa mga local exchanges at ganun din sa mga hindi based dito sa bansa natin.

Dito ako bumili ng Ledger at Keep Key na gamit ko now. Trusted seller ito dahil matagal ko ng gamit hardware wallet ko at listed as official distributor sya.
Ibig sabihin authorized talaga sila, hindi lang pala ng Trezor kundi pati ng iba pang mga hardware wallets din na kilala.

Yung tiwalang-tiwala ka na ikaw lang nakakaalam ng seed phrase mo at password at iba pa tapos sa huli hindi pala. Kaya kung minsan ang hirap ng maniwala at malaman kung ano ba talaga yung lehitimo na ligtas gamitin na hardware wallet.

Kaya kailangan talaga ng masusing pananaliksik sa pagbili ng Hw, ang maganda ngayon may ideya at opition si OP kung ano dapat nyang gawin sa mga recommendation na binigay sa kanya. Ako nga gusto din magkaroon ng hardware wallet kaya lang laging kulang sa budget kaya hindi qu maprioritize sa ngayon.
Dati yung Ledger, madaming may gustong gusto pero simula nung maintroduce na nila yan. Parang pumangit na tuloy ang reputasyon nila dahil nga akala natin tayo lang may hawak ng seed phrase natin, pati rin pala sila puwede nilang malaman.

There has been a lot of critics, bashing, and all sorts of negative narrative towards the head coach of the PH team, but these all are actually true. We can blame how the coach handle his team by not being able to maximize the minutes of the players that supposed to be contributing the most to at least get a win out of the 3 games. Secondly, the PH team really has a lack of talent when it comes to the international stage. Kai is clearly over hyped as he was not able to meet the fans' expectation to be competitive.
But, still good job for the PH team for being so competitive despite of all the team issues even before the FIBA have started.
If it's against the people of the nation then there must be really something new. It's all about his coaching style and words that were expressed on media on how to win. He's always justifying that they don't have to win but to have a learning experience and should also be dependent on other teams to get beaten so that they get the qualifying round base on scoring system. The thing is, they have to win all the games that they play and that's simply as that. His mindset is too poor. He don't have the winning mindset and mentality.

These guys are getting paid?
In other countries it’s an honor to play for your national team, there would never be any payment. Of course there would be some sort of bonus if you win a medal or something, as a motivation, and the federation pays for insurance ( as requested for example by the NBA) but other than that there is no money involved.

It’s really sad to see that this is actually happening and I guess some other small basketball nations have a similar approach to motivate their stars to play.
Yeah, they're paid to play and that's likely what it is. I do understand if they get paid little and they agree to play for the honor. There's like a little amount that even you're not offered to get paid but like a honorarium. But those figures that I have mentioned for our two national players were actually published in a lot of posts in social medias.

Financial problems can be overcome by managing financial management, need to balance expenses with income and set aside desires that can absorb excessive spending.
You simply need to live within your means. Because most people that are having personal problem with their finance are spending more than what they're earning.

managing finances needs to be done to avoid financial problems, you must be able to control yourself to buy something that can drain larger expenses in order to achieve financial goals. You have to find a solution to make progress in business by increasing skills in the business you are starting. Find out where the mistake lies, then you can fix it slowly in order to achieve the goal of getting out of financial problems.
Before spending huge amounts, you need to think of it so many times if you really need it. If you don't need it, much better not to avail it and if it is just categorized as your wants and not your needs. In these times, when almost everything is soaring, we have to be the wisest person in the world and be critical and active with our spending habits.

The Philippines mounted a remarkable comeback, showing their strength in the 4th quarter. However, they couldn't overcome Italy's strong 3-point shooting, and fell slightly short. Personally, I find their effort commendable, especially since I placed a bet on them with a +12 handicap – which worked out well. With their journey now concluded, it's time for the team to relax and embrace an early vacation.

FINAL SCORE  83-90
That's the end of the hope for the 2024 Paris Olympics. This is where the hate is going to come out again, whenever the team losses, we're looking for someone to be blamed. And it is timely that whoever released these talent fees for Kai and Clarkson, I don't know if has got good or bad intentions. I've seen on how much they're paid to play for the national team.
Jordan Clarkson = $1M
Kai = $400k

i remember my friend a few months ago i told him about btc and i explained about the risks of investing in btc and the benefits of investing in btc, and my goal was to tell him about btc because he asked me about btc and what is btc? then I explained the advantages, but he was not interested because he saw that investing in btc was very risky.

but one last Sunday he came to me and said that he had learned a lot from the internet about btc and finally he decided to invest in btc, and he was also very happy when I told him that in 2024 there will be a btc halving.

so your experience is very good so i think we can tell someone about btc, as long as we have to explain about the risks of investing in btc and the benefits of investing in btc.
We can tell our experiences and stories to anybody that we know. But only tell it to the people that you really know and not to the random people out there. Because still, you need to be careful to whom you're telling your personal story about bitcoin to avoid the personal attack. Yes, we're optimistic to tell our great bitcoin experience and stories to anybody but don't forget about news like this.

He'll have someone who can he rely to and there's no doubt with that. Both have their own championship experiences and became champions so a combination of that and relying to each other's strength will definitely something big to get troubled with by other teams.

This is what everyone was talking about when Giannis expresses his thoughts regarding his relationship with the Bucks. Everybody wants to see Giannis and Curry play together. To be honest, Giannis addition to the GSW will automatically buy them a ticket at the finals and the Warriors will become relevant again. Could this be better than when KD was with the Warriors? That's what I was thinking about. Though for sure, this will open up a lot of wide open threes for Curry as Giannis can't be stop with 1 man defending the paint.
That will be one of the clutch transfers that will happen for this era, yeah, it's an era because these two are part of this great era. Many would love to see them play together and win games together. I know that this could also be hype but we know how these two are individually playing and have brought themselves up with the team that they've been with for a very long time. It's Giannis who seems to be letting go from his team franchise where he'd stayed for a very long time. I think that Steph will always be a Warrior.

There's shooting outside and take it inside for Giannis, this is a monster duo, to be honest. So with all the rumors rotating that Giannis has some plans to exit the Bucks are going to be a pain in the ass of the team. His being an asset to the team would hardly be replaced by any other star. These two are always hungry to take the title for every season and that will push them for more.
I have been a Warrior fan ever since their dynasty started way back when they and the Cavaliers with Lebron are facing the NBA Finals 4x.

Regarding this scenario, it will never happen. Like I said, the Warriors don't have assets that are worthy to be traded in exchange for Giannis. Come to think of it. Who will be the players that will the Warriors will give just to get Giannis? Another one is that, will the Bucks want those players? The Warriors having Giannis is a dream come true for the Warriors fans because just think of how Steph and Giannis would be together, but in reality, this will stay as as dream because it will not happen.

Take note as well that the Warriors don't have cap space to sign him. Unless Giannis is willing to take a low salary for the sake of a championship (which is for me will not happen), then that's the only way for him to be going to the Warriors.
It's gonna be a mutual agreement but if it seems impossible to happen right now. If it's Giannis that has expressed his desire to get out of the team and wishes to get traded on his desired team, then it's up to the management if they think that it's gonna worth it. And it's all just about buying out the contract if he's still in contract with him, well, money talks if it's about these deals. But this is still a developing story of this trade and rumor, so we'll not know unless it comes.

Malaking bagay ang OTC lalo na sa ayaw makipag transact online. Kahit sa ibang bansa may mga OTC exchanges at ang kaibahan lang naman nila ay present ka kapag magte-trade ka. Matagal ko na yang ginagamit yang moneybees na partner ng Tivoli pero madalas bumabalik balik na ako sa coins.ph. Mas magandang option lang din kasi yan kung prefer mo na pupunta ka mismo sa lugar at gusto mo on the spot na exchange. Pero parang pwede din ata mag book ng ganyan, di ko pa kasi natry yan pero ita-try ko yan gusto ko yung branch nila sa Trinoma or sa City of Dreams ba yun basta malapit dun.

Balak ko kasi bumili ng bagong hardware wallet since ayaw ko ng gamitin ang Ledger X ko dahil sa issue nila recently. Wala akong idea kung anong magandang brand ang bilhin na available sa country natin dahil limited lang ang available sa shopee at lazada na mga authorized resellers.

Any suggestion kung anong best hardware wallet na available sa atin? Balak ko sana mag preorder ng Keystone 3 pro kaso November 2023 pa available yung next batch.
Trezor ang best option mo dahil yun naman talaga ang next sa Ledger. Meron silang authorized resellers na naka publish mismo sa website nila.

Curry and Giannis would definitely pose a threat to other superteams. Even the Suns, I don't think, could defeat the Warriors in the playoffs. Giannis improves when the players around him contribute to securing a win.
There's shooting outside and take it inside for Giannis, this is a monster duo, to be honest. So with all the rumors rotating that Giannis has some plans to exit the Bucks are going to be a pain in the ass of the team. His being an asset to the team would hardly be replaced by any other star. These two are always hungry to take the title for every season and that will push them for more.

He will have less weight on his shoulders, as Curry, an MVP himself, can also carry the team. I would like to see this happen, as it would bring back the unstoppable Warriors.
He'll have someone who can he rely to and there's no doubt with that. Both have their own championship experiences and became champions so a combination of that and relying to each other's strength will definitely something big to get troubled with by other teams.
894  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Trump turns himself in at Fulton County Jail on: August 28, 2023, 05:23:57 PM
That mugshot of his is classic. Based on the article, 13 felony counts were charged against him. In our country, the Philippines, this isn't something new. There have been ex-presidents that have been detained due to their past administration but yeah, this isn't about our country.
Anyway, based on what I've searched about Trump's case. A felony charge could go behind bars for a year so x13 with that, 13 years? Is that right? But with bail, anything is possible. I'm just confused a website says as per google said it's not baliable, but some says it is.

Yes. It will be really funny if Trump is found guilty and is elected at the same time (2024). His guilt won't stop him from being president. It can't.
Yeah. He's got plans to run again next year and many are saying that this could be a tactic from his opponents (whoever they are) to discourage people from voting for him. But AFAIK, an elected official has got immunity from this type of case, right?

It would be an interference in government. Maybe White House arrest, and out for work to the Capitol on the Huber laws.

Cool
If that's possible through that law, yeah, we'll see on 2024.

As for Team USA, that stack probably should be enough. Yet, they've got one of the best and championship coach which is Kerr and assistant coach, Erik Spoelstra.

With the match between Angola and the Philippines a while ago, I thought that Gilas would be able to beat Angola but Angola is the stronger team. I don't want to blame the coach despite being booed when shown on the screen in the arena. While most of our countrymen's sentiment is about the system and the coach. Anyway, full hate has always been given to Coach Chot as usual when they're beaten, can't blame the fans though.
Too bad for the Team Philippines are they are close enough to take the win and yet, they fall behind on their most important game to get a win, there is so much hate with the coaching staff since then, its too bad for the players to hear such cheer from the crowd, its not motivating at all.
The first and second game were really close and honestly I thought that they'll be able to make it despite all of the opinions of many that they'll have the hardest time to beat them. I mean that they were right that the Gilas have the hardest time to beat both of them because they haven't won any single match against them. It's the nation that calls for the coach to step down and this isn't just this time but even for a long time when he's handled the national team. Upon hearing that, yeah, it's not really motivating at all but they know why the crowd reacts like that.

With regards to the USA team despite of not being dominant and don't have their NBA star players they still manage to get a win and that could be a good sign for a younger generation to make their own name, and this is a big opportunity for them.
Well, they may not have those star players but these players are still NBA players. Getting into the league is like a lottery because out of the many talented basketball players in the world, they are the chosen few so can be said that it's still a strong team but can be stronger with the stars.

From the time that he acquired it and did a lot of talk about it publicly, that's when he started doing wrong about it. And with all of the adjustments, layoffs, and humiliating them publicly, that's the continuation of it. This gives the chills that whatever you do to others, it will also be back to you.
true with the massive layoffs that elon is doing, quite literally he did massive layoff without any delay I guess karma bites him but right now though it seemed that he's already found a strategy to get back all that money he previously spent in acquiring twitter though its at the cost of losing twitter users but the blue ticks and gold ticks badge has proven to be quite effective strategy that its even getting replicated by instagram.
in this regard I understand elon frustation about meta trying right and left copying whatever he has right now that even he tried to have fight in cage.
though right now thread, the imitation of twitter has never being discussed anymore the trend was rather shortlived honestly and maybe its just gonna be failing and people would latch onto twitter again like before.
after all people are already more familiar with it.
We can say that it's actually karma for him but even with that, he's still a rich guy that can do pretty much everything crazy that he wants. I remember when he fired one of his software engineers and then later on, he needed him back again so he offered him the job again. I don't know what would happen if the SE accepted the job again or put him on his ignore list. If he's willing to sell it lower than the acquisition amount, he's not really doing business on it and just wants to liquidate it because of frustrations through his mishandling and mismanagement. But I doubt it that he'd take a lot of loss and will just allow it to happen or maybe he's too desperate to do that.

Nobody really cares about that, and we just have to avoid him if we don't want to be in the loop of the game he often engages in.

Tornado Cash founder , Roman Storm, has been released on bail. He was charged on a money laundering case of $1 billion by US department of Justice. At least, him being charged is a good sign that it is not easy to get away with crypto scams now.
The news was made yesterday so for the record and reference.
(https://dailyhodl.com/2023/08/27/us-releases-tornado-cash-founder-on-bail-after-1000000000-money-laundering-charge/)

Wow a billion dollars!!! This is a very large amount in cryptocurrency,
CMIIW, the charge was $1B but that doesn't mean it was the price that he's paid for the bail.

where did he get all this money that he laundered in the first place?
It's a mixing service but in ETH just like the Bitcoin mixing service that we knew here in the forum.
899  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Glitches still affects online casinos? Or it's the casinos that sucks on: August 28, 2023, 10:10:25 AM
I don't know if anyone have come across such fate when gambling online before, imagine playing a game and the game start freezing after few successful trials, the game just crashes on you and you lose money? Anyone?

Now who is to blame for this? The casino or your internet connection or something else? I've asked this on Twitter and some said it's technical glitches, that's acceptable, but if this costs you some money, all because of technical glitches who is responsible for your loss? What will you do about this?
You have to check it out on which part has the fault of it. If it's your internet connection then it is your ISP that has the fault for your loss. But if it's an actual glitch or bug from the casino then report it to them. You're helping them to find the fault but I don't know if they're going to reward you with that or give some refund about your loss. Usually, maybe they won't.

It's a shame that technical glitches and server errors still happen on some online casinos, games that aren't even graphically intense, they aren't even using lots of data resources to run e.g upload and download speed.
Well, that's a shame but there is no perfect system and that's why this could happen for a few times.

This doesn't happen to me but my very close friend and he is at a loss because of it, im just wondering what I would have done if it happened to me?
Just accept it IMO, there's nothing much you can do and if it's a loss then it is what it is.

Videos about wealth and finance are always recommended on my feed and that's the algorithm goes for these social media platforms. Honestly, most of them are just telling the same things but I like it whenever I watch almost the same content every day. It's like they're being fed to me to keep me reminded of what I must do and that I have to watch myself every time I do some unnecessary spending. That suggestion will keep us motivated when we feel demotivated or when we think that there's no way that we'll get out of the rat race.

[c.] Watch videos that can give you inspiration to become better. And mingle with people who have a positive outlook on life.

Most of the motivational content and videos about financial freedom always have the same content who's just trying to monetize their channel as well. It's actually too generic to learn something from these content creator. I think it's better to just read books about finances rather than watching those videos that the algorithm in the social media has been feeding us. Books are too specific and broad on how you improve your financial stability according to your lifestyle, income, and other stuff in line with this. Most videos in the internet always gives you suggestion to become an entrepreneur or a business man, well that's not actually a bad suggestion, but it's not for everyone actually.
Yes, they're just the same but I wouldn't look disappointed by looking and watching them again and again. They're serving me like reminders for most of the time and that's helping me to keep motivated and focused on the goals that I am setting. Well, you're right that most of what they're saying are generic and it's like all recycled ideas and tips for those that have known what they're saying. But to those that are new to the financial education, they can extract those and just keep themselves reminded that it's going to be helpful if they start thinking of how they're going to be well in finance. That's why just take those free contents, read or watch them and if there are something else which are better then it's best to take them.
