Trading bots have been used by traders for years already. AI on the other hand has been very disruptive and is being used for different situations worldwide. From making articles, to programming, to even making some research papers.

Adding AI to these trading bots might have a significant upgrade into it, but I believe there will be some flaws into it and because of it, I don't see it as a risk like other users sees it. Market manipulation is your problem? It has been happening for a long time already, and no one can stop it (at least for now). GPT AI has a long way to go. It has been there for years, but it just went popular when ChatGPT has been released. Overall, AI might be used or integrated to these trading bots, but I don't see it as a risk either. More of a benefit I guess.

No chance for the Lakers and reunite with Lebron. He will just be benched there since they are overloaded with wing players already.
It's good that the Heat got him because they are lacking some wing defenders on their roster. At least his height will still be a big help for an additional depth of the team.

As for Westbrook signing with the Clippers, I just don't want the fact that he might be a starting point guard of the team. Of course he is a very good pass-first player, but his shooting and decision making is what makes him worse. If this will not work well with the Clippers, they will just bench him and give limited minutes and give more minutes to Mann who is their point guard before the trade happened. One thing more, I don't like to see Westbrook, PG13 and Kawhi as their new Big 3 because Westbrook isn't a reliable player. Just the duo is fine.

That KD trade really affected all the top teams in the West that they are getting players on the buyout market that will have a positive effect with the team.

Commissioner Adam Silver was asked about the shooting spree yesterday in the All-Star game, and what he said was "It's Okay".
If this All-Star game will turn out to be a shooting spree as well just like in NBA, I expect the same or at least near to that answer.

Yes they've added a new event for the PBA aside from the 3x3 which is that PBA Esports League (correct me if I'm wrong), but they forgot to change what they need to change in the All-Star game. I'm still disappointed to the fact that players who aren't deserved to play there has a spot while those who are deserve are just watching on their homes.

Well, I expect a lot of crowd with this one at least because the venue is outside of NCR, and fans can't wait to see their idols playing in front of them.

The roster for Team Scottie and Team Japeth for the All-Star game is over just hours ago.
The 2 captains drafted for their all-star players. These are the roster of each teams.

Team Scottie - Christian Standhardinger, CJ Perez, Calvin Abueva, Robert Bolick, Arvin Tolentino, Kevin Alas, Jayson Castro, Stanley Pringle, Marcio Lassiter, Mark Barroca, James Yap

Team Japeth - June Mar Fajardo, Jamie Malonzo, Chris Newsome, RR Pogoy, LA Tenorio, Mikey Williams, Paul Lee, Jeremiah Gray, Gian Mamuyac, Nards Pinto, Terrence Romeo.

If you will look at the players of both teams, 8 players came from Ginebra, 4 came from SMB and the rest from different teams already. I don't know if some here sees the same for me, but there are some players out there who aren't qualified to be in the All-Star game. They're just there just because they came from a popular team like Ginebra. There are many better players out there from independent teams who didn't enter because they just hand-picked base on who the fans voted. Which is not fair for me. Where is Teng? Maverick Ahamnisi? Tiongson? Almazan? Even Oftana & Jalalon isn't on the list as well.

I don't want to say something about how they are picking those players for the All-Star game, but there are way better players out there who aren't picked just because they aren't popular enough. Kind of disappointing.

They might've sold it the same year.
There is a high chance that those who got Bitcoins at that time doesn't know the capabilities of Bitcoin. I mean they don't have a time machine so they don't know at that time that this will be the future of Bitcoin thus, when they got the Bitcoins they might sell it a few days after.

Nevertheless, I feel a bit of regret on that one, but I guess even the organizers of that tournament don't know what will happen to Bitcoin 5-10 years from now that's why they just made it as a consolation prize. I agree with what you said though that maybe the ones who got those Bitcoins aren't involved in cryptocurrency at all, and just focused on games.

Asaang server na kayo ngayon? .

Hindi ko alam kung may nakuhang castle ang mga PHA especially yung mga G's nila pero base sa pinost ni Brother Long-gadog, mukhang wala silang nakuhang castle. Anong server kayo sumali ng Castle Siege? Mas payapa na rito sa Asia 5 kumpara noong mga nakaraang buwan. Wala na yung mga kanser dito especially sa Domination Server at parang ni-recruit sila at currently nasa Asia 6 na rin sila.

Regarding dun kay Bembol G, ang tahimik ng livestream niya kagabi . Wala siyang back-up na pwedeng tumulong sa kanila sa server kung asaan siya ngayon. Gayunpaman, sa tingin ko lalaban pa rin naman ang mga natitirang PHA hanggang sa kaya nila. Sana nga lang may dumating na dayuhan galing sa ibang continent papuntang Asia para may kaunting thrill .

Currently, I'm on a losing streak, and a few days from now, I might take some break as well to prevent further losses.

Having this kind of strategy really helped me to be disciplined, to be aware of the losses that I get. Having self-control and knowing when to stop really is a big factor when it comes to gambling. Giving yourself a break especially when you are a losing streak is needed so that you don't regret in the end because you might lose your money on the process.

I've been this using strategy for months already, and it really helped me a lot. On the other hand, I'm not only using this kind of strategy when I'm losing, but also when I'm winning. Giving myself a break also on winning would secure my winnings, and I'd do that all day than putting all of my winnings again and gamble it knowing that there is a chance that I might lose my money. It's my way of securing my winnings.

Give yourself a break both when you are losing and at the same time winning.

The more it touches that price, the higher the chance that it will surpass that price.
Bitcoin has touched $25,000 3 times already this week. I don't know, but it seems like the selling pressure at that price is really high that it can't break that price even though it is trying to go above that price.

Now Bitcoin, after that short dump a few days ago is trying to go pass that $25,000 price again and it's now $600 away from it. RSI is at 48 while MACD just crossed below 0 on the hourly chart and knowing that Bitcoin is still above the 200 EMA, the trend is now going up so there's a high chance that we might see Bitcoin go above $25,000 a few days to a few weeks from now.

I'm sure many will be happy if investors see Bitcoin go pass and stay above $25,000.

It's Dame time!!!!!.
Dame made the nail in the coffin that gave the Team Giannis the victory. Now the Lebron winning streak has ended.

It was a close one until the 3rd quarter where Mitchell, Dame and Tatum lead the way and poured some three point shots. Tatum scored 27 points in that quarter. The most number of points a player had in one quarter in NBA All-star game history. Tatum, Mitchell and Dame combined for 121 of the total 184 points by the whole team almost 2/3 of the points of the whole team came from only 3 players. That's just insane.

Anyway, both of the teams didn't play the whole game. I thought that Giannis can play even with his right hand injury, but he joined in the first 20 seconds and opted to go out and just watch. Lebron on the other hand, didn't play in the 2nd half because of an injury as well. Overall, a wonderful game to end the all-star week. Congratulations to Tatum who set a new record for most points of a player in NBA All-star history with 55 points.

With how the league is changing right now in terms of offense, I expect that this record will be broken year after year. I expect that somebody next year will break that record again.

Passive income in the Stock Market thru Dividends. That is the closest one to a real passive investing.

I mean you will only buy the stock, just hold it your broker and just wait for the dividends to come to you. Well, of course you need a huge capital in order for you to achieve the desired amount of monthly or quarterly dividends that you want, but in terms of earning passively, dividends is I believe the way to go.

Starting some projects that can bring you passive income is not passive income. When you start a project, you need to work still to maintain that project right? Unless you will give it to somebody you trust and you do nothing then you can consider it as passive investment maybe.

If you don't really want to work in the future, Stock market thru dividends is the way to go.

Currently, the players are having a warm-up, and I'm excited to watch the game on livestream (this is my first time to watch the whole all-star game which is funny ).

It seems like Giannis will play on this one even though he has a bandage on his right arm. He injured his right wrist when they played against the Bulls just days before the all-star. I don't know if how will that affects the whole Team Giannis if he will not play on this one (unfortunately). I hope that Giannis will play the whole game and will not re-injure that hand.

Let's enjoy the whole game I guess. Injuries really spoiled this all-star game. It would be more exciting to see players doing some exhibitions, but because of injuries, some of them will just be benched. I put my bet on Team Lebron Team Lebron - Team Giannis @ 1.67.

Documentaries, analogies, making it as simple as possible.

I didn't try to share my knowledge with other people until now even though I'm investing in crypto for around 4-5 years already, but I'm ready incase one person approaches me and wanted to know more about Bitcoin.

Documentaries are the ones who helped me learn Bitcoin even more. For a newbie, it's kind of overwhelming I agree, but after watching more and more documentaries, you will learn even more and more. I mean there are many documentaries in Youtube regarding the history of Bitcoin, how it works etc. I believe it will help a regular person. Analogies are I think a good way for newbies to understand it way easier. Explain it as simple as possible so that they will understand it better thus, they will be more focused on it instead of them getting overwhelmed by these terms that they just heard for the first time.

I believe there are many ways for each of us to explain Bitcoin to a newbie, but these are I think the ways for a newbie to understand it way easier.

I believe it's for the preparation of the upcoming last leg of FIBA qualifiers that's why SMB and TNT players will have a bit of a rest.
I hope that Pogoy will recover from his ankle sprain that he got against Meralco since he will also play for the last leg of FIBA qualifiers.

Lot's of fouls not being called especially for the import of TNT, and if you watched the video, he really is very frustrated that he isn't getting the calls. On the other hand, it made me curious why SMB let JMF sit on the dying seconds of the game, and because of that decision, they paid the price and let Oftana shoot on the paint. What if JMF is there instead of Brondial? It probably went to overtime right? .

Anyways, been a SMB fan, but I put my bet on TNT on that game. Just move on like @harizen said.

Ever since they changed the format from East Vs. West, Team Lebron has won all the all-star games and has a record of 4-0 currently.

Now the roster is more balanced than what it was last year, but I can't think of a way how Team Lebron will be losing this time knowing that he has the 2-Time MVP in Jokic and Doncic as well. It's sad to see Steph and Zion not playing though because of injuries. We will miss those no look three-point shots, high flying dunks this All-star game.  Anyway, lets just enjoy the game, and put our bets on it maybe. I put my bet on Team Lebron as I believe the streak continues, and has a better chance of winning (for me).

There's a lot of hype with this coin a few years ago and knowing that Telegram is the one of the most used social media platforms right now (aside from the fact that it's being used to scam investors), creating a coin that has been attach to Telegram will be a huge one.

Currently being traded at $2.34, it's price is just almost x3 to it's starting price 2 years ago and with lots of apps and services that is under TON, I guess this will have a good future. I'm a big fan of staking coins as well, so I might buy and stake TON coins this year.

I think knowing that it's attached to Telegram, it's a good coin to hold for short to mid term only (around 1-3 years maybe). DYOR still.

He just signed a 2-way contract days before the all-star game so before the dunk contest, he is officially an NBA player. 
https://www.nba.com/sixers/news/76ers-sign-mac-mcclung

I don't know if there has been a time where they are allowing G-league players to participate in the dunk contest, but as for McClung's situation, he's an NBA player already (signed by the Sixers) before the contest.

Nevertheless, he deserve that win. He's a great dunker, and I guess many are rooting him to win on that contest. Credits still though for the 3 participants who participated. They revived the "already dead" slam dunk contest because of what happened last year.

It's a bit unfortunate that the TNT lose Mikey Williams in the middle of the game.

Pogoy didn't play on that game because of ankle sprain, and now Williams didn't play as well. 2 of their main local scorers didn't play. Fortunately, they have their 3rd main local scorer in Oftana who did his heroic buzzer beater shot to win the game. Lucky for me as well, I put my bet on them @2.25.

I thought for a second that it will go to overtime knowing that their import didn't make that shot. Now the TNT are in the solo top spot with 8-1 record. The good thing about SMB is that, they managed to minimize Hollis-Jefferson's impact on the court and he only scored 19 points with 7/27 shooting. Well, we've seen quite spectacular games this weekend. From Converge-NLEX yesterday to SMB-TNT tonight. Hope everyone's happy.

Targets, priorities, mindset.
It all depends on the investor. There are investors who bought Bitcoin because they want to hold it for long term. There are investors who are buying Bitcoin because they want to use it to buy stuffs online. There are some investors who are buying Bitcoin for short-term profits. You don't get it because you are only focusing on one side.

Long-term depends on how many years is "long-term" for you.
Long term might be 3 years and with that span of time, Bitcoin experienced losses after it going up so much. Bitcoin experienced losses over the long term, but looking at its price movement for the past 14 years, it goes up, it goes down to make a huge retracement and it will go up again even higher than it's previous high. Now to answer your question, my reason why I'm holding Bitcoin is for the future and I'm holding because of trust. Trust that it will up in the future then I will sell it as it reaches my target.

For a 16 year old kiddo, that's a huge amount already, but seeing the words "I can afford to lose all of the 450$ of Bitcoin that I have", I'm assuming that you came from a rich family or a family of businessman. Am I right?

Anyway, I hope that 16 year old kids like you will think of the same here in my place. In my place, 16 year old boy or even a girl is just thinking of ways to go out, have fun, and posting some useless Tiktok videos out there instead of learning about finance. Well, I can't blame though, but it's quite unfortunate.

I guess some here gave you already some tips and tricks with your investing journey. I guess that is what I will say. It's not a tip, but good job on investing on Bitcoin at a very young age. You and me are one of the 58% of crypto holders are under 34 years of age (the number is based on this page. Just continue what you're doing and learn more.

That's always the problem when an old fighter will fight against a younger one.

Same with Pacquiao when he's at his post-prime years already. Many are thinking on how he can keep up with his younger opponents. He may not beat them by TKO, but he can still win thru decision. I will not say that Donaire is the same as Pacquiao, but I guess Donaire still have the stamina and the power to fight against younger boxers.

I can't find any highlights of his opponent on Youtube though, but with 14 KO's out of 27 wins from Santiago, I might bet that this will end up in a decision and if that happens, I just don't know if Donaire can last up to 12 rounds.
