I thought that the project doesn't have any updates anymore, but thanks to this.

I bought ADA when it was at around $0.13, and from that, I staked it, and still staking until now. The only problem with Cardano is that, their upgrades to their project takes a very long time, but when they release it, they are making sure that there will be no problems whatsoever. Charles Hoskinson is constantly promoting his project in different social media platforms, and is very active to the project. Currently, it is still on the top when it comes to market cap, and that shows that it still has community behind it, but I'm already thinking of selling all of my ADA holdings, and will buy Ethereum instead. After all, those who are at the top this time will not be at the top forever.

I mean, Ethereum already has a lower gas fees now, and what Cardano has is already in Ethereum. Cardano is one of the coins that they called "Ethereum Killers", but they can't just take down Ethereum, and they mostly will not succeed into it especially now that it already changed from POW to POS.

Staking thru your computer is always the safest option.
If you can't use your computer because you're away from months, I guess staking thru your phone isn't a good choice.

On the other hand, why choosing to stake thru your mobile phone if you can do it in your computer, and even though you will not have an access to your computer, you can just stake your coins into the platform that's supported by that coin, and let it grow. I mean you don't need to see it very often. Just put your coins there, and let it sit. I don't know if I will agree with you in the part where not monitoring isn't the safest option. I'm currently staking ADA coins, and there was a time where I can't visit their decentralized platform where I put my coins for I think 6 months because of lack of space in my computer (Daedalus is eating lots of space in my disk drive), and because of that, I saved some money to upgrade, and bought a SSD with more space. I opened it after 6 months, and nothing changed aside from the fact that I got more ADA now because I staked it there.

Not having an access to your computer isn't mean you need to convert, and use your mobile phone and stake. Safety is the primary option still, and you don't need to constantly visit your computer if you are staking. I rarely open my Daedalus software (where I stake my ADA). I think once every 2-3 months just to visit whether my coins are still there, and earning or not anymore.

I know the feeling when you bought your Bitcoin for the first time.
I can also feel the excitement from you because I also felt that way when I bought Bitcoin for the first time around 5 years ago.

You did your first step towards your crypto journey. Now maybe it's time to lock the thread now. It's good that you bought Bitcoin, but it wasn't necessary to create a thread against it. If this trend will continue, more and more users here will post their own threads regarding this one, and at the same time, we don't know if these are true or just a made-up so that they can just create their own thread.

Congratulations, I guess, but lock the thread now. Focus on learning more.

With that loss, the Mavericks are officially eliminated from the tournament already.


Kyrie didn't play because of foot injury, and at the same time, Hardaway Jr. didn't play because of ankle injuries. Their 2 bigs Kleber, and Wood didn't play as well. What do you expect from the Mavericks if they ruled out their main role players. It's a bit surprising that they only lost by 3 points against the Bulls without DeRozan, and Lavine.

After having a very good playoff run, the Mavericks didn't even clinch the play-in position. I wonder what will the Mavericks front office will do in the off-season. Will they pursue Irving, and build a team around both him and Luka? Will they get better role players? Will Luka request a trade?

The Eastern Conference standings is set already.



I guess there might be some changes on this one in the 8th-10th seed, but the top 6 seeds are in tact and will not change anymore. With the loss of the Heat against the Wizards, and Nets winning against the Magic, that sealed which team will be the 6th and 7th seed between the two. As for the 8th-10th seed, I guess that will not change anymore regardless of what will happen isn't it?

Many are still waiting for the results in the West, and because it's that tight, it's still hard to know which teams will enter the playoffs, and the play-ins.

Bitcoin is for everyone, but not everyone wants Bitcoin.

A sceptical person will always be a scepical person especially when it comes to investing. A person who don't have any experiences when it comes to investing will be sceptical into it. TBH, I will only spend my time teaching Bitcoin into a person whose interested in learning it, and not to a person who thinks that Bitcoin is a bad thing, or a bad investment whatsoever.

Convincing people to invest into Bitcoin is almost the same as those people in the mall who are convincing the mallgoers to buy their product or insurance. If they really like the product, they will be interested into it, and it's the same with Bitcoin. If a person really wants to learn Bitcoin, they will be the ones who will urge you to teach them. They will be the ones who will do the initiative, do some researches, and find ways to learn it.

Do we need a news regarding that? Of course Elon is just playing with the investors again, and look what happened to the price of DOGE a few hours after he changed the logo of Twitter to logo of DOGE.

Currently, the price of DOGE is going down already, and it just shows that Elon is still capable of tricking newbie investors with regards to DOGE. He is making fun of his newly acquired social media platform, the coin itself, and the investors themselves. I still can't forget a meme (I think) where it says there "Let that SINK in." a few hours after he acquired Twitter, and in that picture, he is going to his office holding a real sink.

Elon's mind really isn't the same as other rich businessmen out there. Well, at least he has a humor unlike others.

There is a famous quote when it comes to trading, and that is "The Trend if your Friend."
Well, we have futures already, so betting against the trend is still a good thing if you are a good futures trader. Overall, following the market will give you profits especially when you are doing spot trading. As for futures trading, you can still get profit even though you go against the trend, but it would be better to follow it.

"Stick to 1 strategy."
Always, always stick to only one strategy that will help you get profits. I mean having more than 1 strategy would be better, but as for me, I don't want to complicate things because that will make me stressed while trading, and that might lead to some unnecessary decisions that can make me loss money that's why I always go to only 1 strategy that I know will help me get those profits.

TBH, I didn't ever tried using bots when I'm trading, but I've heard some good and some bad comments from it.
Overall, I still prefer going for manual trading instead of using bots.

If they're shilling a coin or a project that you don't know yourself, don't follow what they are saying, and do your own research.
There's nothing in following these influencers because after all, they are contributing, and sharing some knowledge to the newbies, and to us as well. I've been following some crypto influencers for years already, but they're not shilling any new project or coin at all.

Stop-loss and take profit are very important when it comes to trading.
Always set a percentage where you will take profit at this particular percentage, but at the same time, also put a stop loss. Whenever I'm trading, I always put a stop loss, and take profit right after I enter (futures trading).

Making things complicated will make you overwhelm during the process, and that can make you do some bad decisions along the way, and if that happens, you have a high chance of getting lost. Overall, just pick one strategy that will help you along the way. Always keep it simple because you can think way better if you do it that way rather than thinking many things that will affect your performance in trading.

I think Danny Ainge really isn't thinking of the playoffs like it's his priority. I mean he has young players, and lots of draft picks on their roster. I believe that they will be using it to get some better role players in the off-season.

As for the Mavericks, the door is still not closed for them, but it's hard that your are relying on other teams just for you to get the 10th spot. I mean if Thunder will lose against the Grizzlies, and Mavericks somehow manage to win those 2 remaining games, they will get the 10th spot. If the Thunder manages to win against the Grizzlies, and the Mavericks lost one game of their remaining 2 games, they're out of the league already. Now if the Thunder, and the Mavericks manage to win on their remaining games, we will see a tiebreaker between the 2 teams, and whoever wins will get the 10th spot.

TBH, I would love to see the Mavericks getting that 10th seed rather than the Thunder, and they won against the Kings, so maybe that built a bit of momentum for the team. The remaining 2 games of Mavericks isn't that hard because it's against the Bulls who are already in the play-in tournament, and against the Spurs who are already eliminated. Still, anything can happen and Mavericks can still lose to either one of them. Either way, the Mavericks are in a tough situation right now.

Experience is the most important thing when it comes to trading (for me) because if you doesn't have any experience in trading, you cannot train yourself on how to be emotionless when trading.

When I'm starting to trade, I can't control my emotions that's why I ended up getting FOMO'ed twice at that time. I experienced having my capital wiped out because of wrong entry in the futures. All of the failures that I experienced back when I was a newbie really helped me to what I'm doing in trading now. I don't have 100% win rate as of this moment, but I can say that I have more wins than losses now when it comes to trading.

As for the newbies, I believe that lack of experience really is one of the reason why newbie traders are losing. They don't know the feeling of entering and exiting, they don't know what they will do if suddenly the price of the coin went below their entry point. Experience is a big role in trading, and newbies loss more often because of lack of experience. What's good is that, there are some newbies who doesn't stop when they got losses in trading, and instead they're learning from it, adjusting from their mistakes, and will try their best not to do it again.

Overall, experience in both winning, and losing is a big help for a trader to become emotionless when it comes to trading.

You're in need, eh?

You're tagged because you are promoting a scam site, and that negative trust that you got doesn't mean that you will be having a consideration. Another thing is that, it already stated in the first post that "No negative trust by the time of joining." You are trying your chances?

I wonder how will this scam campaign have applicants that don't have any negative trust by the time their applying. Or the campaign manager will have no choice, and just choose those who have negative trust because in the end, nobody that don't have a negative trust is willing to apply on a scam campaign like this.

Well, the Warriors only has 2 games left on the regular season, so I guess it will just be a good time for them to just let Wiggins sit, train, make some shots, and practice.

Their remaining 2 games are against the Kings, and Blazers, and both are on the road. I don't know what will be the result of the Warriors-Kings, but since we've seen Warriors played awful on the road, and it's the Kings that they're facing, there's a chance that they might lose to them. As for the Blazers-Warriors, I think the Warriors can get that win even on the road since the Blazers doesn't let Lillard play anymore this season.

I think this is a strategy for the Warriors so that they can retain that 6th seed, but it's very risky knowing that the standings on the 5th-9th are very close to each other. I guess let's just hope for Wiggins to come back on the playoffs, and be a big help for the team. Maybe this is their way also to prevent their all-star player from getting injured like many other teams who already have a spot in the playoffs are doing.

It's a bit ironic that Bill Gates is even putting billions of dollars into OpenAI to fund them on developing ChatGPT,  but he himself is also concerned on the possible risks of AI.

With AI being that early, I don't know if what will be the future of it. I mean AI has many positives that can give to every person, but there are also negative that it can also give to us. I mean one positive is that, we can make our jobs online in a shorter amount of time. Aside from that, we can also answer questions that we are having a hard time answering it. AI makes people more efficient than ever. Now on the other hand, because of AI, there is a huge possibilities that there will be employees or people who will not have any job anymore in the future. Because of AI, we are already seeing pictures that are very inappropriate (like what they did our Pope where there are pictures of him that has clothes that doesn't usually being wore by a Pope).

There are some countries that are already against into it, and we've seen AI for months only. We don't know what AI can bring to humans in the future, and what will it be. Will it be beneficial to us? Or will it be harmful. Probably both.

It might be too early, but the regular season is almost over, so I guess it's a good time to predict who will be the NBA Champions.
As for me, I already did my bet since March 30. I already put my bet on the Warriors because I think they are still capable of winning the title again.


They might be playing very awful on the road which is kind of a question mark for me, and to others as well knowing that they are performing very well on their home. They're playing very great on their home while it's a complete opposite on the road. However, if the whole roster of the Warriors will come back, and will play better on the road like what they did last year, I think they're still capable of winning it.

They have the pieces. Splash Brothers + Poole Party + DiVincenzo on the offense, Looney, Green, Kuminga, GPII, and even Moody on the defense, and rebounds. When Wiggins come back, I'm not really expecting too much on his comeback on the first games, but we know how he played last playoffs, and how he has been a big factor on their title run. I believe that he can do it again because he isn't injured at all. I pick the Warriors to get the title again.

I also thought that when they're down double digits in the first half, they will make a comeback at the 2nd half. I didn't watch the whole game (since I'm busy doing something), but I managed to put a +8.5 bet on the Lakers, and somehow it got covered.

With the result of this game, the Clippers are again in the 5th spot, the Lakers are now at the 7th spot, and currently tied with the Pelicans, and the Warriors are now in the spot that they wanted to which is the 6th spot. The Eastern Conference standings is set already aside from 6th (Nets) and 7th (Heat) spot. As for the Western Conference, many things can still happen in the remaining games of each teams especially the 5th-9th seed. With the win of the Mavericks, they still have a chance to get that 10th spot depending on the performance of the Thunder in their remaining games. The remaining games in the West will be crucial for teams who are buying for either a playoff or a play-in spot.

Fatigue is the factor why they played that way. Playing back-to-back games is very hard, and the Lakers did experienced that. Nevertheless, it's a good game still for both teams.

I almost did this back when I saw that I'm profitable into trading a few years ago. It also come to a point where the profit that I'm gaining in trading is way more than my monthly salary on my current job at that time. I've been consistent in trading at that time, and I don't get much losses, and most of the time I'm winning. I'm trading futures at that time BTW.

They suddenly, Bitcoin went down massively, and I entered in a wrong position. To cut the story short, I got liquidated at that time, but the good thing is that, I already withdrew most of my profits at that time, so I only lost a little, but that liquidation that I got served as a lesson for me. It says that whenever you are winning consecutive times, there will still be a time where you will get liquidated because of entering at a wrong position. I didn't put a stop loss at that time which is my mistake too because I didn't expect for Bitcoin to go down massively at that time.

Overall, you can still do your job, but at the same time, trade. You aren't looking at the charts 24/7, and having multiple sources of income is always a good thing. Don't quit to your current job and focus on trading, because you will not know when you will lose your capital because of wrong entries. Like OP said, get a reliable and stable source of income, and then try to do trading, and after that, do it both at the same time.

It's in the morning for me.

Since I'm mostly betting on sports games (most of the time in the NBA), and NBA games here in our country happens in the morning, that's the best time for me to gamble. A bit of analysis on which teams will face each other, see who will play or not, then I'll put which team will I think is the winner. I also like to put my bets in the morning when I just wake up. I don't know if it's only me, but I see it better for me to gamble when I just wake up than spending hours doing something then I gamble.

We have different time of gambling. Some gamble on the afternoon because that's their free time. Some also gamble in the evening because it's their relaxation time, and their way of getting relaxed is thru gambling. There are also some who are gambling in the morning because for them, they are feel more comfortable when they bet in the morning. One piece of advice is that, whatever your gambling time is, just remember not to get addicted into gambling.

A few weeks ago, I already put a bet on Embiid on winning the MVP, and I guess he deserves to spoil the back-to-back-to-back MVP titles of Jokic because he deserves to be the MVP this season.

With how he carries the whole Sixers team right now, even some of the analysts are rooting on Embiid to win it as well. It's Jokic in the start to mid season, but coming into the final stretch of the regular season, Embiid played better than Jokic already. Though I don't know if the voters will pick Embiid on this one over Jokic because it's still hard to choose and bet which one will win. As for Coach "Choke" Rivers proclaiming that Embiid will be the MVP, of course he will say that because he is the coach of the Sixers where Embiid is playing currently.

I guess I don't want to assume that Embiid will be the MVP this season until they will say that he is, and if he is then my bet won.

I don't know if it's only me, but right now, I don't think that reading a whitepaper is still an important one whether you will invest into that project or not.

In the past, yes Whitepaper is a big factor because you will see everything about the project there. Their tokenomics, the roadmap of the project, the team behind it, the possible upgrades of it etc. etc. Now on the other hand, I've also seen Whitepapers who is very alluring and very attractive to investors, but they ended up scamming others. I've read some good whitepapers which if you read it, you will think that "The whitepaper is good, I will invest into it." especially if you are a newbie investor, but they ended up as an abandoned project.

I'm not investing into new projects in the past, and until now, but I've read some whitepapers already, and the ones that I've read ended up either as an abandoned coin (most of the time) or a scam coin. Like others here, I know that reading whitepapers isn't essential anymore. Reading whitepapers is just a waste of time for others. Some might disagree with me, but that's what I observe base on my experiences in the past. As for the OP (if he will read this), it would be better if you will just pick and invest into the top coins instead of spending your time reading whitepapers that will end up as a fail project.

This is the main reason why I'm hesitant to enter such airdrops.
It's because there's a chance that you might click a wrong link, connected the wallet there and *POOF!!!*. MONEY GONE in an instant. I also didn't enter the Arbitrum airdrop, but no regrets on my side.

Phishing links has been one of the most effective ways of the scammers to scam people. Newbie, ignorant, and sometimes the lazy investors who are just lazy enough not to read what must be read are the ones who are most likely to be falling into these kind of scams. Many said this quote, but I will say it again. "Always be vigilant". Always be vigilant especially in airdrops. Yes Arbitrum airdrop came up as a successful airdrop, but many scammers and hackers are using that as their advantage to lure and attract those newbie and ignorant investors.

I know that there are some including the OP who has shared their own tips already here, but I'll share mine as well.

1. Always double or triple check the website you are entering. Make sure that's the official website you are using with. Whenever I go to a new website, I always go to Youtube, pick the most trusted influencer that I know (though I don't trust them at all), see the description and sometimes, there are some official links there. Just be careful because they might still give you a wrong or a phishing link. Maybe picking an influencer that has many subscribers might help. Still, don't trust them.
2. As much as possible, use a separate wallet if you are going for an airdrop. In that way, it will reduce your chances of getting hacked or scammed.
3. If you can, just don't participate into airdrops at all. In this way, you are 100% safe from getting hacked or scammed.
