1621  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Jamel Herring vs Carl Frampton WBO Super-featherweight Title on: March 30, 2021, 08:59:00 AM
This is a good evenly matched fight. The undercard is also interesting because we will see Donnie Nietes resume his career after years of inactivity.

I'm leaning towards Frampton beating out Herring. Herring is an awkward fighter and he will make it an ugly fight. They are both relatively old for the sport and have a lot of wear and tear. I expect Frampton to use his better skillset to win a decision.
With the mention of Donnie Nietes, I am more keen to watch the whole event because the undercards might be interesting than the main event. I would lead on to Frampton considering the stats mostly favors him against Herring, this are old tigers, they might be old but they are still dangerous and whoever comes out on top is going to be lauded in my opinion.

And if th person is lucky he might also get the other results right?
Game of luck and there's no techniques or any special strategy that will work in the long run, you just wait to whatever the outcome
the game will give to you, more on self-control and absence of any emotions might help you to get something out from this type
of gambling.
I wouldn't really rely that much on luck, I mean it is just a fancy term for coincidence and probability. If you know the odds of you winning that then you should have an idea on how low the chances of you winning the roulette. Easy to say to someone to have a self-control or anything like that but when it comes to application, it will be different.

It isn't actually unreliable tbh, but rather the concept of randomness just defeats the numbers that result in the average you would get. Just like my point earlier, a person could perfectly get a split 50/50 rewards/loss in 100 spins, but it could also happen that a person could get 100 losses in 100 spins.
But roulette probabilities aren't that good for the players so I don't think that a 50/50 split will happen, I mean you said that 100 spin can result in 100 losses so there really is no reliability that they are going to be a 50/50 split.

You might want to check out Coindesk and other crypto related news site to help you whenever you want to trade. If you plan to trade and you still think that you are newbie, try to test the waters and do trading with small amounts. Or you can also invest in gambling websites which is called bankroll investing or you can convert what you are hodling and stake it on promising tokens.
1625  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What is good amount to start day trading is 100$ enough?? on: March 30, 2021, 06:24:59 AM
Well one most not lost at first, but to avoid potential lost you need to develop a trading techniques before venturing into it to avoid making avoidable trading mistakes that often lead to loses, and the amount of capital don't really matter in lost or gain once you can properly manage the risk.
I think that the techniques might already be a given so you have to throw it out of the equation regarding this question if 100$ is enough, in my opinion considering you have the skills and you are confident with trading, I think that it will be enough but you won't get that far because you have a small amount of money and to make more you have to put in more money maybe if you don't experience any losses and you are just slowly growing it then you might be able to make more money.
1626  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Online Gambling 'or' Day trading cryptos- Which one is more lucrative? on: March 30, 2021, 05:45:44 AM
Day trading all the way, I mean any rational mind will choose day trading any time of the day against online gambling. Online gambling relies on luck and probability and those things are low when you are a player and when you lose that's about it, yes there are wins and if you know when to quit you might be able to make some profit but not everyday is a winning day for gambling and in the long term you aren't getting any growth in your money. Day trading can be a skill that you can hone through doing analysis which will make you profitable in the end, I mean you can still lose but you can choose not to sell when the prices are going down, you can hold until you can earn a profit.
1627  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you like Volatility? Debate on: March 30, 2021, 05:07:34 AM
Volatility whether they like it or not if they enter the Bitcoin market and cryptocurrencies must accept it, here in the same way there is for everyone, those who like stability, can go and buy USDT, BUSD, among others, or some Gold in the form digital if they like to follow the price of gold mixed with Blockchain technology.

Volatility for many can be a double-edged sword, just as you can have a touch of luck, it can ruin a plan causing you to lose your funds, I know many friends who before going to sleep change what they have in BTC for USDT, I respect that decision but I do not share it, I prefer to leave it in Bitcoin despite its volatility, if it falls in price, the best strategy is to wait until it recovers and rises much more.
Volatility is present in stock market too so there is no escape in that attribute, and as @LUCKMCFLY says, we just have to accept it which is the most reasonable thing to do because it is out of your control and the only way to make money out of it is to utilize that volatility in your favor because with volatility you can make more money because you know that it is going to go down anytime soon but you have to know when to buy because you might get the bad card and you will get left behind.
1628  Economy / Services / Re: Is anyone willing to use my trading bot against % of the revenue? on: March 30, 2021, 04:28:53 AM
I mean there are Open source bots out there that will be doing the same thing and there is no need for a % because you are the one who is going to tweak it to your preferences, this is a pretty suspicious one because considering the return from the capital, it is a fishy one.
1629  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING POLL ADDED] FURY vs JOSHUA: A Two Fight Deal Has Already Been Signed !! on: March 29, 2021, 10:08:34 AM
You know, a Fury's form will be an important factor in their fight. If he would be as fat as he was in November 2015, after victory over Klitschko, then he might have some troubles with Joshua.

I tried to check his form in instagram, but Fury has removed all of his pictures. Perhaps he is preparing for the fight. Perhaps not  Grin Just check how slim he is right now. Cheeks has left his face Cheesy
I think that any boxers will enter the weight loss phase every time they have an upcoming fight, we don't have to worry about Fury being fat because we know that he is going to loss that before going in and it is just a signing and there is no official date yet so there is still a lot of time to burn those.
1630  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The fine line between market investment and sports gambling on: March 29, 2021, 09:26:17 AM
I recently read that there is a similarity between sports gambling and market investment like trading. If you consider that market investors are making bets, it's already gambling with the definition of "bet" itself. Speculators on the market that try to predict where the value will go are gambling.
There is an article by Investopedia that overviews investment versus gambling and I have to say that the only similarity that they listed that I agree with is that both involves some risks but that too can differ if there is an in-depth analysis done because investing doesn't necessarily take away your money even if the company is going under or performing bad while in gambling, once you lose then that's about it, you lose the money.
1631  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Awareness and Meme Images on: March 29, 2021, 08:38:10 AM
I'm pretty sure that OP's image isn't specifically gambling, but rather just a scam image instead. The idea kind of looks similar to how gambling works, but gambling is in the end, for entertainment and we as gamblers, are aware that in the long run, casinos will still end up as winners (unlike in scams, you think you're a genius when in fact, you're an idiot). Still, I think it works if we consider how as I said, casinos win in the long run, though the image imposes more of a scam (not to mention people can hit jackpots in casinos).
If we were to expound it, I am sure that we can understand what gambling does to the greedy people in this image. This is an oversimplification of the process of how a greedy gambling addict will spiral into destituteness so there it is understandable that someone might misunderstood it.
1632  Economy / Gambling / Re: If you loose your funds don't loose the fun on: March 29, 2021, 07:42:23 AM
Glad that you have a friend that you can do that for you, but your friend can't do that to you every time you lose or fall, you must learn how to pick yourself up, in gambling, there are more instances where you lose than when you win, so if you are just going to rely on your friend to get you up everytime you lose, you will end up losing a friend, you must learn how to pick yourserlf up.
That depends on the friend, if that friend is a saint, I don't think that we should worry about that person because no matter what other people might say, that person is going to help, I mean in the core, isn't that the point of helping people? You will help them until they change and until you can. But that doesn't discount the fact that you should be responsible for your actions and as @coin-investor says, picking up yourself.
1633  Economy / Gambling / Re: 1XBIT.COM ᐉ Bet online ᐉ BTC Betting ᐉ Best odds on: March 29, 2021, 07:09:45 AM
How come they still have their thread here and I can't believe that they are still advertising their shenanigan of a website to other people to try their luck and scam other people. To those who will be reading this post, mind you that 1xbit.com is a scam gambling site and if you are a newbie, you are the likely target of this website so choose another website to do your gambling because they will lock you out of your own account for some bullshit reason.

I repeat do not go to these website, it is a scam and if you see newbies getting their problems resolved, be careful because they might be sock puppets for the website to make you let your guard down. You have been warned and if you still go on even though you have read this and you got duped, you definitely deserve getting scammed
1634  Economy / Economics / Re: America stimulus support add strength to the dollar as investment increase on: March 29, 2021, 06:29:59 AM
Have you guys ever thought that when Government gives away stimulus package then most of the people are trying to invest them into stocks to stay future ready and that actually benefits the government itself? I mean what if they already know this is the market ahead, and government opens up positions to benefit themselves?

I know this could be just overwhelming response to the current situation but with amount of money they are printing, it’s huge.
Because a lot of people on the Internet is doing the same thing and a lot of financial influencers are advocating to put their stim package on investments, this is just a herd mentality that we are witnessing and it is a double-edged sword because it can help be used for the good and for the bad, you don't really have to worry about US overprinting their fiat if you don't live in that country, I mean bitcoin is flexible and can be converted to your local fiat.
1635  Economy / Economics / Re: Our boss and employer are money on: March 29, 2021, 05:48:47 AM
Everyone also moves based on money nowadays, it's just hard to refuse that people are doing things just because or for the sake of money, but the problem is, people didn't realize that money is merely a tool and they never think of making the money works for them, most of people nowadays also really consumtive and always want to have glamorous lifestyle that further bind them to money.
Well if you don't do it then you will die of starvation and deprivation unless there is a big forest nearby you or you have your own farm, money has to be an essential for anyone else to live in this world because we are a species made of greed and we have to get something out of our services and product and bartering isn't sustainable if the population is growing. You don't have to be enslaved by money, if you can take a break then take a break, learn to say no when a side project is offered even if there is a pay in exchange for more time to rest.
1636  Economy / Economics / Re: Can the world be without poverty on: March 29, 2021, 05:12:01 AM
Either you have never visited a third world nation in your entire life, or you are living in the 1990s. There are poor people in third world nations, and there are lots of them (hundreds of millions). But there are very few who can't afford food twice a day. Times have changed and poverty is in decline, even in these third world nations. They may not be able to afford the luxuries, but at the same time most of them can afford the basic things such as food and electricity.
I think a third world country is considered as one in my opinion if the country has a high poverty rates, resource deficiency, high crime and corruption rates, wealth disparity is large and unstable finances. How can you say that poverty is declining? Are you working on surveys about the third world country to confirm that the poverty rate is declining? Why is in my country a lot of people in the poverty line can't afford those basic necessities that you are stating? Because according to this article the poverty index for two years is 9.1 to 9.4 percent which is a considerable increase compared to 9.2 percent in 2017. This study also shows that 3 billion of people lives under 2.5 USD a day so is the poverty really declining? To answer the title, I would say that it can be solved but we have to move aside our differences and remove corruption in our governments and change the mentality of the masses but given that we haven't solved poverty for a long time, I don't think that we will be able to solve it.
1637  Economy / Economics / Re: Central Banks money and blame for printing this is what I think on: March 29, 2021, 04:22:58 AM
Nobody blames banks for taking debts from people, no one gives money for nothing. We blame banks for centralization, control and printing more worthless paper money. This is what destroys the economy and makes people's lives worse.
People want financial freedom and want to preserve privacy, and this is what the bank is trying to eliminate, so you will find more people in the future leaving banks and heading towards cryptocurrencies because it gives them decentralization and privacy, in short, it gives them financial freedom.
I think that we should blame them because most loans from banks are a devil's pact in my experience and the arduous task of filing the necessary paperwork to apply for a loan also worth mentioning. No matter how much people want to have financial freedom and blaming the banks if they don't get their heads of their asses then there is a limit to what decentralization can do, put in the work, stop praying for blessing and stop blaming others for your failures are some of the good ways to start making things different.
1638  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it possible to live without banks? on: March 29, 2021, 03:39:49 AM
According to World Bank in 2017, around 1.7 billion people are unbanked which means that there isn't a lot who uses banks or any mobile money provider and they can still live which means that the question can be answered with a yes, it is possible to live without banks, even my parents do not have one and they are still doing good so I think that it is enough testimony to prove that anyone can live unbanked.

1639  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin Is Protecting Human Rights Around the World on: March 28, 2021, 08:49:32 AM
Bitcoin maximalists are the definition of cringe. Did you know bitcoin was invented to save mankind from political oppression, censorship, poverty, and dozens of other threats?  At least, that's what they'd have you believe even though literally none of that is true.  The retcon of bitcoin's origin story is too much.
Be careful what you say about them because they are going to attack you definitely and they do not want their belief challenged even in the most healthy way of discussing the short comings of their one true beloved cryptocurrency that is Bitcoin, someday we will come to a time when bitcoin becomes like Jesus Christ because of these bitcoin absurdist/maximalist. Seriously though, these types of people needs to calm their tits down and try to get some fresh air and sunlight because they clearly lack some social interactions and they have to understand that we are on a Kardashev scale, a Primitive Civilization which means that our technologies still faces limitations and bitcoin is not exempted from that limitations.
1640  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: You can now own this symbolic Charles Hoskinson NFT tweet on: March 28, 2021, 07:53:48 AM
You never know what some people can consider valuable and wouldn't mind paying a high price for it, turning tweet to ntf happens to be 'the-in-thing' of late, seem all the likes of cz and hoskinson has found a new trend Cheesy
Perhaps anyone who look up to this guys will be willing to buy irrespective of economic value or not.
The people who don't understand how others can pay this much for something that they don't find valuable has never met a lot of people or they lack the social skills of understanding others. Not to mention that rich people have a lot of money that they don't know where to spend it on and a lot of people that are promoting these kind of things are just simply stamping out values to anything that a rich person may buy.
