521  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Are you updated about machine learning tecniques that useful to trading? on: March 26, 2023, 02:15:53 PM
Last time I heard, machine learning was being used in "Algorithmic Trading", where trading bots follow your trading strategy religiously and execute orders for you automatically based on the rules you've programmed into the bot (e.g., volume, price, ML models).

I cannot thoroughly explain which ML algorithms out there have the most accuracy in predicting some kind of price action on the financial market, but there are some good resources that explain the use of ML, such as "Advances in Financial Machine Learning" by Marcos Lopez de Prado[1]. This book covers topics such as data structuring, ML research, supercomputing methods, and others that use data science and programming. However, the book can be difficult to understand, especially if you do not have a background in hardcore programming, data science, and statistics.

But here is the caveat: even though using ML models for trading can give you an edge over other traders, you must still remember that there is no mathematical model that can miraculously predict the price action of a certain stock or crypto. Remember that price movements largely depend on billions of individual traders happening in real-time, as well as other fundamental factors such as legal issues, media presence, or perhaps the company's financial status.

At the end of the day, algo trading or using a bot in trading is just a complementary tool that you can use to improve your current trading strategy, and it is obviously not a "cheat" to instantly grow your money. You still need to upskill your analytical and risk management skills.

523  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does your country tax your gambling winnings? on: March 26, 2023, 10:43:04 AM
Lucky for us here in the Philippines that we don't have such a law of taxing gambling winnings. If the government decides to tax our winnings then probably most of us will stop gambling or maybe corruption will arise because many will bride the tax collector just to pay small amount as tax.

In our country where cockfighting is legal and some cockfighting enthusiasts will win a couple of million of pesos within a day then that could be huge money for the government.
The taxation of gambling winnings in the Philippines is a subject of debate, as the country's tax code lacks clarity on the matter. However, it is important to acknowledge that all gambling winnings are subject to taxation, and the specific amount owed depends on the type of gambling activity and the total amount won.

As far as I know, if an individual's gambling winnings are below PHP 10,000, they will be required to pay a 10% tax on the earnings, and 20% if however, their gambling winnings exceed PHP 10,000. It's worth noting that if an individual wins at a casino, the operator is responsible for reporting the winnings to the Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR). However, it's unclear what the tax implications are for winnings obtained from offshore casinos.

It's important to mention that small-scale gambling games commonly found in local neighborhoods are exempt from taxes. These include raffles, small-scale lucky draws, and bingo or any other gambling games that can be found on the streets.

If there are any instances of tax evasion, it is likely due to the law not being restrictive enough.

hirap magpa rank up sa international boards
Almost 2 years ako naka gather ng enough merits from being "Member" to "Legendary". I am not saying na nagmamadali ka pero kasi that is normally the amount of days it would take you to rank up. Siguro gagawa ako ng post dito sa local maybe within this week(or kapag sinipag ako) about sa pointers kung paano yung atake sa pag-post sa international boards to make your post interesting to read and not some fucked-up common opinionated post na madalas ginagawa ng karamihan.

di ko nga alam kung na review ba yung sinubmit ko na posts para ma merit or sadyang hindi lang talaga pasok sa standards nila
Tinignan ko, at hindi pasok sa standards ko. Hindi porket may own thread kang ginawa, surebol na may merit kang marereceive. Just like nay other members have said from before, "merit" is subjective.

As I was saying, gagawa na lang ako ng thread dito about posting guidelines na natutunan ko in my stay here for about 5 years. Baka makatulong para maging better poster kayo sa international boards and para hindi na umasa dito sa local. Kasi tama naman talaga yung sinabi ni cabalism from before na hindi na ganon ka-active tong Pilipinas section.

our local board already became inactive, most of the users posting there are just the old ones which I don't find they need Merits and for the new ones, nah.
525  Local / Others (Pilipinas) / Re: Pilipinas Merit Cafe on: March 26, 2023, 08:51:27 AM
Na curious lang po ako sino po ba sana yung merit source natin dito dati?
Si @cabalism13.

Ito yung merit source application niya: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5136481.0
This one right here is his request na kulang yung sMerit na meron siya which is hint na accepted siya as our very first merit source: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5153158.0

And if you are wondering kung bakit siya nawala; Well according to him, there is a lack of evidence[1] as to why there are missing amount of money that have been donated to his bitcoin charity in the past[2]. Nakakapanghinayang lang kasi siya yung nilook-up kong member dito nung "Member" rank pa lang ako :v

526  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Binance suddenly haults all crypto trading services on spot! on: March 24, 2023, 01:17:09 PM
Yeah! I currently have my USDT deposit not being displayed on my spot wallet even though I have both received the in-app and email notification that the deposit has been successfully confirmed.

At first, I thought it was a stupid mistake of copying an incorrect address, and then I saw this post which I assume that it must be the cause of deposit issue.
527  Other / Meta / Re: Five legendaries you know with the highest posts/merits on: March 24, 2023, 01:06:54 PM
Check the animated chart created by @bitmover, which displays the merit earned by Bitcointalk members from 2018 until the present time. From there you can easily determine which of them belongs to the top 5 merit earners.

Posting each of their profile in the thread would be extremely cumbersome process, no?

All you need are:

- Become useful
- Only post when you have something interesting to say
- Learn any bitcoin related areas that interest you.

After that, merit will follow.

530  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Referral bonuses are waste of time on: March 23, 2023, 06:56:44 AM
Finally, a question I can answer.

In the past, when I participated in YoloDice's signature campaign, we were allowed to include our own referral code in our signature, which we could copy onto the website. After wearing the signature for a few months, I was surprised to learn that someone had used my code to create their own YoloDice account. This user happened to be a "whale," capable of betting a whole bitcoin.

To my surprise, thanks to YoloDice's referral bonuses, I was able to accumulate 0.1 BTC, which I withdrew immediately from the website. Imagine making a lot of money without making a sweat. And now I wonder how much money bitcoin gambling review sites can make out of referrals.. Shocked

Edit: @_act_. I meant 0.1 BTC
531  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Deflation in signature campaigns on: March 23, 2023, 05:05:29 AM
Apart from the implementation of the merit system, the discontinued chipmixer signature campaign just become another catalyst for other members to upskill themselves in terms of being articulate and experessing themselves more clearly. Because if not, there would be a surplus of forum members who can't earn even a single penny.

The point is, with the influx of ex-CM participants, there is an increase of pressure to maintain the quality of your post especially if you are on a campaign with a former CM participant. It just feels like you can be replaced anytime soon if you can't keep up with them and not do some legwork.
532  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are Casino Sites Cheating Us? on: March 23, 2023, 04:10:27 AM
Perhaps it has something to do with past results, especially if during the game, your previous bets resulted in consistent small wins which influenced your confidence to bet big without realizing that the house is primarily designed against you. Essentially, you are being blinded by small consecutive wins.

At the end of the day, it is still a game of chance and luck, and the only way to go is proper "risk management."

If not why are the reputable members of this forum not promoting the stake.com signature where there are always open slots in this campaign?
One reason maybe is they require a lot of post count while being underpaid in which most members disagree with.
533  Other / Meta / Re: Changing password and mail wrong thing? on: March 23, 2023, 03:08:53 AM
You can just sign a message from your previously staked address in this thread[1] if you are worried about your account being suspicious to other members (which isn't likely). Here is an example[2] of mine when I changed my email address like a few months ago.

It's pretty optional though since you don't need to prove yourself to other members especially if it is for security purposes.

534  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How do you feel when....... on: March 22, 2023, 03:22:02 PM
When you decide not to trade or invest in something that you consider to be vapourware, you acknowledge the possibility that it could appreciate in value without feeling any regrets later on.

However, if your friends call you stupid for investing in something that you lack faith in, I swear I could just curse them to lose all the money they've made from that stupid coin.  Roll Eyes

You can refer to this list:
- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5444578.0

I didn't have first hand experience in using any of these services, but from what I have read, BTCPayServer is the most popular one especially if you want to accept bitcoin and lightning payments only. There are other simple options as well like MyceliumGear[1] and OpenNode[2]. However, these are 3rd party websites that aren't privacy friendly.

Also, I just checked your website and it looks like there are missing links on the markup since I cannot go back to the "INSTRUCTIONS" page when I am on the "CART" page. Just tested it using mobile and pc, and it's the same.

That's called "netting". And from what I have remembered, this concept of netting emerged in the late 20th century to reduce financial risks. That's pretty much I know about it -- just a surface knowledge though..

537  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How many BTC needed for retirement in 10 years? on: March 22, 2023, 12:53:53 PM
I simply stack whatever amount I can on a weekly basis, which comes from signature campaigns and other work-related stuff that lets me earn cold hard cash. I plan to continue doing this for as long as I have the means to buy BTC.

It's not that I have no concrete plan for establishing a retirement fund, but perhaps I'm too lazy to think about how much bitcoin I'll need for my retirement.

But one thing is for sure: those weekly bitcoin stacks could potentially grow into millions, rather than saving it up in a bank. It may not provide the most luxurious life when I get old, but it could certainly give me decent comfortability to spend for the rest of my life.
538  Local / Others (Pilipinas) / Re: Pilipinas Merit Cafe on: March 22, 2023, 07:34:46 AM
Ey guys

Madalang yung merit sa local kasi wala naman tayong active merit source ngayon. Way back nung active pa si cabalism, maraming Pilipinas members na naging “Legendary” dahil sa mga airdrop merits niya sa mga well-written posts.

For example ito: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5237607.msg54148910#msg54148910
Saka ito: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5241704.msg54252989#msg54252989 (Majority nagbigay niyan si cabalism)

For sure kung may mag-apply man ng merit source sa atin, surebol naman akong may magbibigay. Saka hindi rin porket may merit yung mga 1 liner post sa ibang bansa eh gagayahin na rin natin. Iba tayo sa kanila haha, saka we’re better than that.

Susubukan ko rin naman na mag contribute sa merit distribution, just expect na hindi ganon ka generous.
539  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trade up capital: $200 on: March 21, 2023, 12:53:08 AM
Could this be enough to start trade?
If you lack knowledge and understanding of trading, then the answer is NO.

Remember, it's important to realize that trading isn't a straightforward process of buying low and selling high because you'll be competing with other individuals who are more intelligent, corporations that possess greater access to valuable information, and people who have more experience, connections, or wealth than you.

And if you're an average Joe with no day job and are planning to use your wife's money to trade without a clear understanding of what you're doing, it's likely that your decision will cause more harm than good.

I maybe harsh, but come on, sometimes we do need some reality check.
540  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much these features weigh most when you choose your favorite casino? on: March 20, 2023, 05:30:42 AM

I think the key takeaway here is that the most important aspect of being a good casino is how they reward their users. It's a no-brainer to provide your users with good compensation for their interest in playing on the platform. Not only does it make your customers loyal, but it can also positively affect marketing in general. I find the contests and built-in investing platform of casinos pretty attractive.

The KYC process, on the other hand, is understandable. You can't blame these platforms for continuously pushing the KYC process because, in the first place, they don't have any choice.

More importantly, having a solid community is a must. It's a self-explanatory concept wherein having a good reputation could also mean providing a sense of security for the players. It gives players peace of mind, I should say?
