941  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Time for bounties and airdrops as we near bull season on: July 20, 2023, 07:06:06 PM
I dont understand why people still expect to get something from bounties and airdrops (except retrodrops)? First of all, who has said that bull season is near. From the beginning of 2023, Bitcoin price has increased from $15k to $30k, as well as many altcoins gained a lot. During that period, we did not have increased amount of bounties on the forum. So why during bull season there will be any difference? There will be only increase of scam during upcoming bull season, that is for sure.
It's not about the quantity of the bounties and airdrops during or around the bull run, but it is about the quality and value they will provide during that time. A bounty that you are part of at this time might not give you results as good as a bounty that you will be a part of during the bull run, the reason for that is too obvious, the whole market goes up when there is a bull season, so all these tokens given in bounties will also gain significant value for their collectors.

So, there are people who are bounty hunters which means they have knowledge and information about which ones are the best and when they should join one, and how they should manage all the tasks and stuff, and these are the people who consider things like these where they wait patiently for the bull run to join some bounties to have more money through them.

This is just a mind game. We go to picnic, we spend money on entertainment, we spend money on movies & food and after enjoying we never regret that we have spent our money. I understand that most people think of Online gambling as a money making thing and not entertainment.

However, I see people going with friends to physical casinos in order to gamble and have fun but they came out sad if they have lost in gambling. Why is it so? Why the fun in gambling is associated with win in gambling? Why people do not think that they are spending money in gambling for fun and not for earning money only?
Mind games are like skill-based games but even if what we are playing is a luck-based game, we still need to have a healthy mind in order to easily go out of the gambling place. Some things in life are not free but it's possible to play gambling even if we don't have a money. This isn't for all though because some people will feel bored if there is no real money involved.

If you play for profit, this is where regrets can come once we lose even if we know to our selves that we do have fun in the process. It is still possible to socialize in a online casino because some has a chatbox, private message feature and a forum but maybe some still prefer the classic offline casino vibe.

After Bull session in 2021 meme coin hugely dumped. That's time was golden time for meme coin. Mainly doge and shib coin pumped then. Many investors changed their life through meme coin. Then who are invested on meme coin they are profited 10x-20x. A am also profited from doge coin. My investment was $1k and my profit was $1330. I think if future it will happen again.

Now meme coin price is very low. I think this is best time to invest on meme token. Because when bull market will come again then it’s price will go more up. And who are already invested on meme coin they need to hold. Dont sell now. In future meme coin will huge dump i believe it.
Not just meme coins but the great coins experience the same thing. It is because the bear market takes place after it. So let us see if the meme coins will also return once another bull market arrives. Meme coins are a risky kind of asset. I don't think there's a lot of people who make a good fortune out of them but I believe there are many of them who lost most of their money.

We are still halfway through the bull so almost all coins are still ideal to invest on. Just invest only a small portion in meme coins only to test your luck while the rest of your money must go on the greatest coins because they are the ones that usually gives you a guaranteed profit.

It's unclear why Diego Simeone doesn't get along with Felix. But it looks like this happened after a defeat in a heated match against Real Madrid in 2022. Simeone was disappointed with the team's performance. In addition, Simeone seemed to feel a physical decline so he put Felix on the bench.
Atletico Madrid decided to spend very big budget to buy Joao Felix after some successful seasons in La Liga and Champions League. They repeated faults of many clubs as after overspending money, their performance became worse and affected their club finance. Worse performance, less income, more outcome from player transfer and salary, it's hard to maintain their healthy finance.

From Joao Felix side, he was too young when his record transfer happened and it's not strange to see he failed to cope with such high pressure from the transfer record, expectation from the club and fans.
He is just 23 and mostly were feeling his tenure at Chelsea is going to be had big change on his career, but this failure creates more problems for him with his parent club is not happy and want to sell him which is surely going to happen in this summer with most chances his personal dream is Barcelona but right now Arsenal is also looking for the right sided forward with if Barcelona give him green signal then he could be at NOU Camp, but their finances are also issued for them and having this well skilled forward and after having is interested in Barcelona, Arsenal will be also tried to have something else all is surely going to happen in coming days but here he needs to change is way of play as well if he wants to have better future at the top level.

Embiid has not shown any interest in leaving the team thus far, but there are rumors of his teammates, like James Harden, wanting a trade. In this situation, it might be worth considering trading Harden, as he hasn't performed at his best with the team. Embiid is the franchise player and team captain, so the focus should be on surrounding him with capable players who will commit to the system. Additionally, having a coach with a championship mentality is crucial for their success.
He might not shown his intentions directly, but thru his words, you can clearly that he is willing to get out of Philly and go to a championship contender team. Philly though has surrounded him with good players like a prime Ben, before the breakdown, and we have seen them getting closer, if not for that heart breaking lost to the Raptors lead by Kawhi. And now that Harden's want to leave, then it will be Embiid job again and it might be very difficult to him because he need another good A-caliber player to help him.
Embiid looks quite happy where he is, even if they do not end up getting a championship, that doesn't mean he has to be upset there, sure he will of course want to be a big star there but that doesn't mean that he is going to ask for a trade.

We need to wait and see, if he does want to get traded, there aren't that many teams that lack center position and could content, because last years finalists had Jokic and Adebayo, and they won't give those players up, which leaves like maybe Lakers and maybe Warriors, those are the only ones I can see at the moment that could want him there and it should not be that weird for them to get him, but who are they going to trade for in that case? Sixers can't get anyone in that case.
946  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How was your first experience with gambling? on: July 18, 2023, 04:35:39 PM
Gambling using limits can save us from problems that can arise after we finish playing gambling. And with those limitations, you can control yourself from emotions, which can also increase drastically so that you won't lose too much money. Our first experience playing gambling is varied and different, especially when the situations we experience are also different, so after getting that first experience, we must learn what we need to have so we don't become addicted. But most people will return to gambling after their first experience because they get a different sensation that they never got before. And only limits and self-control can help him not get too deep into gambling.
Yes, but still in the end they will be carried away by the situation itself, meaning that unconsciously they will be carried away by their own desires without thinking that they are using money to bet on this game. When they are in a game, they probably won't really care about their fate if they lose in the end. It is indeed very difficult to be able to control yourself in gambling because the hope of victory seems to be right in front of your eyes. Someone's level of happiness about a win is very different and I think the sensation is the main factor that really influences them, as you said that everyone has different sensations in every game. To be honest, before I had almost stopped gambling because I was bored with some games, but when my friend introduced me to a game that I just found out about there, I started to get back into it because the game was really fun and had an extraordinary sensation. It seems that one day I will be able to stop gambling when I am really bored in several games.
How come when they are already limiting their selves? If they still can't follow it, they will realize that there is something wrong with them and maybe they will seek for a professional help this time. When we gamble we do use a money but it is also possible to play using fake money although there is no thrill on it anymore.

The right way to gamble is like that or to not care whatever the results you will get. This makes you move on easily. You already stopped gambling before so I believe you can do it again. You should believe on your self too. Meanwhile, just continue following the tips that you saw or hear along with your own ways. Good luck!

I haven't seen a lot of people making tons of money through by getting lucky while gambling. To earn money you need to work hard and hard work nevel fails anyone. Gambling cannot be considered as a source of income, it is a source of entertainment. You can only earn money when you learn those skills that you wrote and work hard on achieving your goal. When you get bored do something that you love or gamble online.
But indeed in gambling, luck is the main factor that can make gamblers win, whether it's a big win or just a small win.
Without luck you will only be a gambler who always deposits money without winning.
In gambling what kind of hard work do you mean?
Nobody works hard in gambling to make some money except for casino managers.
By hard work I meant a day job as only through job you can have a steady income. Gambling doesn't require hard work, it does need strategy, discipline and luck. You cannot control luck but you can work on the strategy & discipline part. Once in a while after losing a good amount you luck would strike. At that time you might be able to cover you past losses or you might make it big.
If you believe that gambling needs a strategy and discipline, then why won't you believe that it requires a hard work when both of them defines it? If you play randomly straight away, that makes gambling effortless. You didn't put hard work there.

The only difference is that no matter how hard the effort you put in, winning won't still come at 100 percent rate, so you're right that it's better to exert it on something that is more guaranteed such as working on a real job. Sometimes that is how gambling works, where you need to feed the machine first before it gives you money. Some gamblers use fake money or no bets involved as their strategy, only to pre-heat the system.
948  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Appropriate percentage of income for gambling on: July 18, 2023, 01:52:10 PM
I use 5% of my weekly income to gamble and I can not go more than that. Sometimes I can be busy and I can spend less. If a week favours me, I will save my profit and the remaining (5% last week income) for next week gambling. According to what I heard, people spend up to 12% of their weekly income on gamble. I think it is not bad but that gives me the thinking to make a post like this on this forum. What percentage of weekly income do you think is right for gambling?
Are we talking about income on signature campaign that pays in BTC? Though there are other jobs which also pays weekly but most of them pays every 15th and 30th day. I don't know if what was your weekly salary OP but 5 percent can be huge or small depending on how much we are earning per week. I earn like $70 per week so for me a less than 10 percent of it is already a good amount to gamble. It's not that high or too low.

It's just enough to make a good number of rolls and earn something decent once I get lucky. There is no fixed percentage, if that is what you want to know because not all people have the same capacity.
949  Economy / Economics / Re: How is financial stability defined for you? on: July 18, 2023, 02:53:23 AM
Financial stability of a person is a state that you can get whatever you want not only that but when large investment has been made which serves as a means of your income you won't even think about the price of the things you want to buy if it is costly or not because the money is there. Being stable financially means haven enough of the usual a person of such level is expected to be balanced and this is achieved through hard work
All success is achieved from hard work in other to maintain it and make it stable we invest largely
Well, not everyone gets financial stability by working hard, though it does work out most of the time when you work really hard, it often doesn't work out and you stay where you are even after working hard for so much time because your destiny also plays a great role in that. If someone isn't destined to happen with you, it wouldn't, so just like that, when you are not destined to become successful and have financial stability, no matter how hard you work, you won't be able to achieve that.

And some people tend to get financial stability without doing anything, it is simply inherited by them and these are the luckiest people in the world because they would never in their lives have to work hard to get anything as they already have great wealth and businesses and stuff running already.

Barcelona's current club concern right now shouldn't be about signing a high profile players like Kylian Mbappe when the club's financial strength is on the decline.
They have a manager in Xavi Hernandez who believes so much in his young team to deliver spectacular performances just like they've been doing since his arrival as the club manager. Barcelona should critically look in to what they can do as a club to help their and recover from their financial ruins
Barcelona is in current times one of the best club in Spain with quality and performance both are improving in last season, but sadly their finances are creating problems for them which needs to be settled and right now situation is not clear how things will be settled in this season as well because if they are able to repeat their performance like last season then surely they could be having some good funds.

But, these are still not enough for having settled their debit for this needs big contracts and increased into their media rights which are already sold due to internal issues recently they cut their salary budget as well which is also good way of cutting expenses hopefully with the better strategy and having good performance in coming season in both La Liga and Champions League they will be able to have good changes for the improved finances.
951  Economy / Gambling / Re: Is Stake.com allowed to lock account with $6,000 untill I lose it all? on: July 16, 2023, 06:15:49 PM
There are a few casinos which I will put at the very top when it comes to offering everything or almost everything a gambler may want, and stake is on that short list.

However the issue the OP faced is something many gamblers like him have faced before, after all the reasons why their documents were rejected seem to have been very clear, so they only needed to correct those issues, get verified and then make a withdrawal, however during that process they decided to gamble and they accepted the risk that they could lose their money, and now they have lost it they are mad this happened, so I do not see they have too much of a case against stake at all.
I'm not sure if a casino can also block the ability for a gambler to make bets when they lock an account because they failed KYC verification, but I also agree that it's not their issue if the gambler was able to gamble and he did that and lost everything instead of trying and completing their KYC verification first and then trying to withdraw again, the casino didn't ask OP to play or gamble more, but they did it themselves so it's their own mistake.

And it happens sometimes when a platform doesn't accept the documents of a player and asks for reiterations and it's a normal thing, a player needs to reconsider their submitted documents, check for errors and mistakes, and then resubmit them again or simply submit another document for it.
952  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Between futures trading and gambling on: July 16, 2023, 05:19:43 PM
Especially in my case I would prefer a casino or gambling game. Because I can start gambling on any match or casino but I will have a hope which site will win. But in the case of a futures trading, it is never possible to predict when the market momentum may reverse. In some cases the money is life changing so I think casino is the best way to make money which is less risky than futures trading. Futures trading can kill people's lives within moments which is very risky. But I had a lot of fun making money from the casino but it seems pretty safe.
Lol, there's not possible to predict and hope which one will win because players always changed, they get older, shit can happen etc. While futures trading, you're need to learn about candle stick and how to scalp, with a big experience you got from trial and error, it's technically possible you can make money in futures trading.

Casino is a luck based game, even though you're playing sport, poker etc, you still need luck.
Some people basically don't understand that even sports betting and poker require luck for you to win because they are also parts of gambling, even if you have a lot of experience and knowledge about both poker and sports betting, you can still lose a bet even if you think that it's a sure win and there is basically no chance for you to lose it, and it often happens in sports betting where you bet on the stronger team thinking of an easy win but still lose.

So basically, no prediction has a 100% possibility of being accurate, there is always a chance of a prediction being wrong, especially when it comes to gambling because in gambling, there is no sure bet because every single bet has some possibility of going against you.
953  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Trump Coin ($dtc) is starting to move. on: July 15, 2023, 07:06:50 PM
This currency is not an official coin announced by Trump. I believe that this currency is just a scam because they only claim that they have their own initiative and have the support of some big investors. My advice, it's always better to be wary of exaggerated claims and don't risk more than you can afford to lose. do more research and read reliable sources of information before making an investment decision.
What you think is right, this is likely a big scam. Usually, scammers will use known personalities and make a project under that name because it was attractive and appealing to the public. They'll hype the project, keep promoting it, and sometimes they use social media influencers to spread the information. And this Trump Coin is not far from being one of them, in fact, if we really have to think deeply, Trump will never do this but unfortunately, scammers do it and ruin the reputation of other personalities.
Maybe not totally a scam but only just another meme coin and people can still benefit with it as long as the project or them get lucky. That is the difference from a complete scam where you can only lose your invested money instantly. Maybe a scammer can impersonate but it's natural for a meme coin to carry the name of a popular brand or personality. That is why they are being called as a meme.

Not all are appealing of course but some of them are only annoying although those who are serious on earning a profit out of them won't even care about that fact. Marketing is important so all sorts of it are going to be ventured by them as long as they have a budget.
954  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Thoughts on the Next Crypto Opportunity on: July 15, 2023, 06:20:50 PM
So many projects seems to be popping up these days with actual some or even worst use-case as a working project and they end up dead or buried because they failed to innovate their ideas as upgrade to the existing project If you are going to create a bad uniswap clone why not just use uniswap or pancake But look at project like maverick Same as uniswap but with innovative tech and better iteration Thats how you do it
Why create a clone in the first place? Why not think of something totally unique that hasn't been used by any other project so far? Things that have already been used by people in a different project won't be liked in a new project because they know they have been using the same features and functions and use cases in a project that has been around for years already, and that will make the project fail because users will stop using their services.

So a team that can come up with something totally unique and unused, tends to get success in this universe because they won't need to innovate something new into a clone of an existing project but they will simply need to create the systems and functions of their own app.
955  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Advice when you are going a bit far in gaming and betting on: July 15, 2023, 05:36:25 PM
It keeps on repeating itself and without end. Borrowing money just to play at gambling and in the end lose and new problems will continue to appear with increasingly large bills. Expecting to win big at gambling, but instead getting into more debt, that would not be good and there would be no more fun in gambling. People who do things like that are just people who are already addicted to gambling and continue to do it even though they have no money. It will be harmful to mental health and the economy. There needs to be control or reminders not to do that.
For some maybe but there are also people who learn quickly. Borrowing money isn't bad as long as it will be used on the right stuffs. Obviously, gambling is not among with it. Taking loans doesn't increase our winning chance but the loaner only hopes that they can now this time. Loaning money to gamble will kill the fun and it's now being replaced by fear because once we lose, another problem is going to be added. Addiction is harmful not only in the mind but also physically.

I'm only curious on why you say it's damaging to the economy? In what way? Not all are addicted to gambling anyway. It's only easy for you to say to control an addiction but it's hard for those who suffer with this condition. A simple reminder won't work but forcing them would be necessary.
956  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever felt remorse after gambling? on: July 14, 2023, 06:14:16 PM
In gambling activities, defeat is certain, victory is a hope. Many cases have been experienced by gamblers who often suffer defeats rather than wins. Even though most of them regretted having spent money that could have been used for other purposes, this did not stop them from continuing to gamble.
Heartache is only limited to disappointment due to having just experienced defeat, but that feeling of disappointment or whatever will soon disappear when you have enough money to return to gambling. Losing and winning are part of the game, there's nothing to regret when you're losing because it's an unavoidable law of a game.
Feeling disappointed because you lost a bet is common, and of course the average gambler has experienced it. I, you and every other gambler have experienced it but each with a different amount to lose. Of course I don't mind the loss, it's a consequence and shouldn't dwell on it for too long. It's true that winning and losing are part of the game, but when they can't control their emotions, of course there will be many problems due to defeat.

Set a budget limit for gambling so that when you lose you are not too disappointed. You would be fine if you gambled for fun, but not many gamblers gamble for fun including myself and many others.
A person who enters a casino with funds at hand and comes out with empty hands will definitely have remorse and they can't help it because losing is not fun, even if you are gambling just for fun, you will still have remorse for losing whatever you have lost in gambling because you didn't want your session to end if you were having fun and fun in gambling is in winning but not in losing, those who gamble for fun are also afraid of losses.

So it's definitely common to feel bad for losing a bet because these bets make a difference when combined and you will eventually lose your bankroll if you keep losing, so it's better if you remorse on time and stop gambling further at that right moment.
957  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin: risk nothing, you're risking more on: July 14, 2023, 09:48:15 AM
Welcome to the platform and i do hope you find what you are looking for.
You are very correct about risking more when you don't take risk. Like someone said, 'it is risky when risk is not taken'.
However, we must be very careful with the risk we take, so we don't end up regretting.
Risk should be calculated and not blind.
Huh? Sorry but I don't get the point. When you don't take risk, you will stay the same. There is no harm on it. Now about taking a risk, it can come in different intensity or level, namely low, medium and high. The higher the risk, the higher the reward we can also get. Regrets are always there even if you don't take a risk.

There are so many people who are like that who only regret later on saying that they already waste so much time doing nothing to improve their life while there are also people who regret because they took a risk and their life have become more miserable. This is why is its important to be careful and decide properly before doing an action.

Kylian Mbappé will be more interested for discussing by all media or journalist have speculated about his future keep stay and extend contract with PSG or he won't extend his contract and automatically PSG will put in the transfer name list. PSG can't mange well controlling about Kylian Mbappé future until right now not have done deal for extending his contract will expiry next season, dilemma for PSG because they want for Mbappe renew contract two until three years later.

Champion League tittle is dreaming from Kylian Mbappé, he has bigger ambition for winning Champion League and seems difficult with PSG after spent several years always failure, best achievement managed until final stage but defeated by Bayern Munich.
If you are in soccer for the long time then surely it's nothing new because in every transfer window we have things like these as media create good drama and then all window run this all with their own view which is also good way of having intention from the soccer fans around the world but as expected we have already few good deals which happen in Premier League and now mostly peoples are waiting for the two deals which are surely biggest in this transfer window first is related to Mbappé which is on selling list of the PSG after refusing his contract extension and second is Harry Kane which is under radar of Bayern Munich most chances we will have things as planned but before this all drama and media attention could be at his peak because without this nothing is going to have entertaining for the soccer community.
959  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: July 14, 2023, 04:25:09 AM
There is currently no way for the Saudi Professional League to make a profit of course their expenses are much greater only in that way they can attract the world's attention, so far we don't know for sure what their purpose is we can only guess. Do you think they want to compete with popular leagues like the Premier League or Serie A? I think not, because there is no way to compete with them. One thing that makes me curious is, how long this League will last with top players because I don't think they're in the football business.
No one knows how long they'll last, but at the rate they're going, if they can stay up, I'm confident they'll last a very long time with this. You might think they weren't in the football business before now, but I believe they know what they're after and are searching for any and all means to get there, which could be why they're so interested in European players and enticing some of them with big money. If they keep this up and sign more good European players, the league may be able to compete with the Premier League and other European domestic leagues.
Now, their vision is clear as they are doing their best for having good intention from the soccer world as they are having bid for the 2030 world cup in case of failure they will go through for the next one 2034 it means they are going to stay for the long time because last world cup which held in Qatar was having investment of $200 billion and Saudi Arab can invest more than this amount just with these figures you can imagine how things are going for this league in near future because they are having enough oil reserves which are going back them for their campaign and this league is surely going to have no profit in early years but as things turn into better way this could be all bonus for them and their organizers.

European leagues surely having some disturbance with this all but most chances things will be stayed at same level for them, and they will be keep going like they were doing in past alone this league is not going to hurt them but their many players which are near retirement going to have good lifetime packages near their career end.

There will be so many "NEXT" Pepe coins in the future, so the best time to buy meme coins is when everyone still don't know about it and no one talked about it because when everyone already talked about this then i can say we already to late into the party.
Literally, there are lots of them that have come out with almost the same name and logo as the original Pepe coins. Some might be lucky to gain an investor but they still can't get on the level of the original Pepe. The only meme coin that are successful to copy the success of another meme coin would be Shiba inu. Its theme ( dog ) was derived from Dogecoin. Your given tip is bizarre.

How will we know that the meme coin exists if none knows about it? The better tip would be to join the project when it was still early and only less people talked about it because it still has a big chance to boom. We should only prepare to lose because scams are rampant here.
