I definitely agree with you.

If finding an online job is a straight line, then many would have attempted and be successful on their first try. Unfortunately with the pandemic affecting most of the livelihood of people, the competition gets tougher along with a massive pool of applicants. If I were a businessman, I would hire the best of the best employee to do his work.

Though I do agree with you that people should take advantage of this opportunity. While the pandemic might be considered the 'new normal', people must adapt and adopt new skillsets that would garner them the edge in earning more online.

Everyone believes that BTC is overpriced, yet people kept on buying and purchasing it as an investment mechanism. The problem with investment firms such as JP Morgan, they have an underlying conflict of interest with BTC that makes them oppose to such view. Remember that these firms have one thing in common- to earn money. Anything that hinders their growth will create this sort of statements against such.

To be honest, the value of BTC is derived from the law of supply and demand. Since people are willing to acquire BTC at such price, it is obvious that its price would increase.

Watched the game between GSW vs Hornets and I was literally blown away by the team chemistry of the former. During the whole game, it slightly reminded me of Spurs basketball in 2014 where they were so liquid in their passes. Like every player stepped-up especially Jordan Poole and his confidence in his shooting. If Klay and Wiseman were to come back, they will surely be a threat to every team.

In addition, the Nets played so well earlier considering that James Harden made 10+ assists. He showed his playmaking and unselfishness on the court with his IQ and vision. When he needs to score (especially on the 3rd quarter where they were tied 75-75), he will step-up and assist Durant!

Bitcoin does NOT have any extrinsic value since its nature exist on the internet. Unlike gold, real estate, or precious metals, they have extrinsic value because of their nature being tangible. But what separates BTC to other investment is its use being as a currency under the blockchain technology where you could transact with anonymity.

The value of BTC derives from the law of supply and demand. Since people are willing to pay for it at such price, it is obvious that its price would continue to increase in the market. Not to mention, it only has a 21 million supply that can cause inflation in the long-run.

Unlike most of the gambling activities present in casinos, poker is one of the few exceptions to the game of luck. Though poker may seem to be reliant on luck, it also involves a game of technique and skill in predicting the cards of your opponents (relying on probability) and bluffing. The art of bluffing is a very complicated technique that all factors must be considered before the player can accurately use it to his advantage. However, it may backfire depending on how often a player uses it.


Daniel Negreanu- considered to be one of the best players in poker! Remember that the art of bluffing is a very complicated technique where a hard and absolute rule does not exist. It must be studied and used on a case-to-case basis as it depends on how your opponents react to other people's bluffs too.

These are just very unfortunate statistics and they reflect the impact of the current situation of COVID and gambling.

With more people inclined to stay on their houses, most are influenced by the sheer amount of ads on the internet which increases the chances of them being engaged into online gambling. The data shows concrete proof on how gambling has significantly increased and its popularity slightly increasing throughout the years. Despite the absence or loss of laws with regard to gambling, it continued to remain dominant in most areas.

To be honest, with everyone adjusting to this new normal, I do think that there will be a massive shift to a digitalized era where we would do almost everything on the internet space.

Whoah this actually exceeded my expectations especially that this came from a gambling establishment.

Almost all businesses that I know derive their goal from profit alone. Even with their efforts of lowering their prices or offering free promos, they only have one thing in mind- which is to earn money and profit on the end. But the fact that this casino was awarded for their safer betting standards mean that they do care for the enjoyment, safety, and convenience of its players and users.

In the Philippines, BTC was categorized as neither legal nor illegal but it is subject to the regulation of our Securities and Exchange Commission. However, our Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP). One of the famous cryptocurrencies here called 'Axie Infinity' (Mine coin) was strictly regulated by the SEC as it did not consider the popular Axie Infinity as a virtual asset service provider (VASP) and is critically monitoring how players are using and exchanging tokens or cryptocurrency assets known as Smooth Love Potion (SLP) as a form of payment and the extent of its merchant network. ¹

In addition, BTC has been regulated strictly by our local exchange where large transactions have been closely monitored. There have been reports of some accounts getting flagged by our local exchange- that is why I am somehow nervous to withdraw my coins and convert it to fiat.

I do think that it all boils down to the person's capital and the amount that he is willing to bet. Personally, I bet on the 'underdog' on games or sports that I know nothing about. If I know something about a particular game and their teams (e.g. Dota 2 teams, etc.), I would be more inclined to bet against the underdog and bet on the more popular team since I have personal knowledge of their statistics, data, etc.

Betting on the underdog can be really fun especially if they get to win. For example, in the latest Dota 2 International, the team that won was considered as an 'underdog' though I betted against them and lost like 30$.

I think you are implying that people who got scammed are borderline 'stupid', which is not a good thing to generalize people of. Instead of seeing them as such, it is more appropriate if you could refer to them as 'misinformed'. Remember that all of us were once newbies. Though not all of us experienced getting scammed, there is at least one point in our careers that we made mistakes along the way.

With this kind of setting, scammers would always choose to take advantage of the people who are misinformed. They tend to create fake giveaways that are pleasing to the eye, fake accounts, etc. Though this may seem obvious to experienced users like us, it may not to newbies.

First of all, I am very sorry for such an unfortunate event to happen on your end. Unfortunately, your cousin fall into a ponzi-scheme which ultimately deceived her during the process.

On your situation, this would depend on a number of factors. First, you may contact the exchange IF the scammer deposited his funds in such exchange, though I highly doubt that they would do this. There are also lots of mixers that could make their transactions more anonymous and secretive. In addition, you may also talk to the exchange but your cousin must be the one to contact them directly.

I remember there was a case of loan fraud which happened quite recently but I doubt that the loanshark was able to recover his money. Best of luck though!

While I do agree that the shift to a digital era/currency is inevitable and is bound to happen in the near future, I doubt that the world will replace the traditional fiat with cryptocurrencies. Remember that cryptocurrencies (specifically BTC), has a limited number of supply in which inflation is bound to happen. Imagine having a currency in which its value changes every day will make prices in the market be volatile also.

While the digital era may is fast approaching, I still have some reservations as to the shift to a decentralized currency around the world though.

The game between the Warriors and OKC showed the overall developments of the players on the former. It was so great to see Wiggins working on his shots as he was draining threes throughout the game. Curry showed on why he is the most dangerous player on the field because if you gave him enough space, he would either drive the ball or shoot a 3 or a midrange in front of your face. Draymond Green is what glues the players on the field on his playmaking skills.

I am so excited to see Wiseman and Klay back on the game. If they develop more their chemistry, they would be a major threat on the playoffs throughout this year!

In general, this is what exhibition matches are known for since it is not subject to strict regulations and preparations. But imagine being punched to the face by someone, adrenaline will definitely start to hit you prompting you to be serious at one point.

Regardless if the match between Tyson and Logan Paul is half-baked, it is definitely a privilege to witness one of the all-time greats to perform once again inside the boxing ring. In addition, regardless also of the result, I just want to see Tyson perform his 'one-punch' power like he used to do back in his prime. Like what my father just mentioned, Tyson in the ring is a lion waiting.

Everything revolves around money since such can be acquired through currency. Everyone, what is the reason on why you guys invested into BTC in the first place?
Though some people living in first-world countries use BTC as a form of currency to maximize anonymity, most people who live in a third-world country view BTC as a form of short or long-term investment primarily for profit.

Unfortunately, if people see BTC as a thing that controls their very nature and character, that would be the start of their downfall. Everything must have a limit and control as without such would lead to detrimental effects.

Oops be careful with that kind of mindset. You are right that adoption is indeed higher but this also gives the opportunity for scammers to conceal themselves and cause it appear that they legit/genuine, but which is not. Remember that the more BTC adoption goes recognized, the more reason for scammers to take advantage of such situation.

Proper research is always the key in order to avoid any scams in dealing with an exchange. Remember also that prevention is always better than cure- that is why always read reviews and feedbacks in order to strengthen the security.

Very accurate.

It is considered as receivables in way that the fruition of profit will only materialize upon the withdrawing/encashment of their BTCs to cash. Until it remains as BTC, it will be unrealized profit just like what you mentioned.

Same as stocks or any receivables- until they are received as cash then it cannot be considered as profit as they will still be recognized as investments or as an asset. Regardless, however, the fact that Tesla has remained faithful in HODLing their BTCs means a lot for the future of cryptocurrencies.

Hi upon checking the content of your website, I observed that you lacked the necessary information to sell your coin. In addition, the website contained no whitepaper as the link posted was broken/not working.
Before posting your website, make sure that you complete all the information needed for everyone to see. Please refer to the reference below, thank you!

I highly agree.

The problem with BTC stems from its inherent supply of 21 million in which it will inevitably yield to inflation in the following years. Though El Salvador has accepted and viewed it as legal tender, I highly doubt that countries would shift to cryptocurrency as a form of legal tender ALONE. Fiat will always be the currency that all countries would use even in the far future.

I think most people took for granted the reason on why BTC was created. The power and innovation brought about by the blockchain technology is the star of the show as it removes the traditional third-party consensus in transactions. Bitcoin, on the other hand, is the currency which is used in circulation through the blockchain.

But if you were in his shoes, you would probably see BTC as a form of investment due to its trend that its price go higher as years passed by. Personally, I see BTC as an opportunity for long-term HODLing and as a short-term investment.
