1601  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 on: June 07, 2022, 09:43:04 PM
With the limitations that Barcelona now have, Xavi will of course be extra in selecting the players that the club really needs to reduce their spending figures in buying players. Actually, there is no need to be too big in recruiting players, it's just that choosing the right players is often difficult and many even fail with fantastic transfer prices. Of course we should see Xavi's performance in bringing in players, as he did when he brought Aubameyang.
I still think that there is a good chance we could see some younger players taking over for sure. I get that maybe that is not ideal situation, and they may prefer some older players that already proved themselves, but pedri, coming back, fati, gavi, araujo, torres all of these are super young players, and them taking over the team, instead of playing mainly busquets, pique, aubameyang and what not, would be a lot better.

They could go with the youth setup and find players from there. Why do they even have la masia, the most famous youth setup, if not for times like these where they can't spend money on transfers and need to pick up players from there?
1602  Economy / Speculation / Re: One more leg down on: June 07, 2022, 09:18:03 AM

people wanted to see what they wanted to happen and if they fail they blame market so we must not give them importance in that matter.
Supposedly they blame themselves first before blaming the market. And in fact, they are not forced to invest in crypto but it was their choice.

April-May, for these two months we haven't seen any changes in price, Bitcoin is still in the range between $28k - $31k.
Do we possibly see it up at least $35k? Or is it the same trend we are still seeing?
Well, I hope this June could have seen something new and positive news but yes, we can't expect that much.
That's much better to hear if they admit that it was also their fault not only the market but like you said, we aren't forced here so the market is innocent no matter what happens to our funds. The market only displays information and it isn't the one that creates the price but it was the humans (the manipulators mostly) since they have a larger fund than the normal individual.

There are changes on the months that you mentioned most especially in April but for you maybe it was not big enough, that's why you consider it as normal. 35k is easy. We have been on this price before so expect that we can be on that price again.
1603  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What can we do to speed up Bitcoin mass adoption? on: June 06, 2022, 09:46:11 PM
The first option, I think it's a difficult thing for some of us to do because it might collide with government regulations that exist in some countries, for example in my country, the use of bitcoin is regulated only as an investment asset, whereas if I try to use it as a means of payment or receive payments from consumers then the license of my service or shop will be revoked and I get a penalty or fine from the government.

While for Option number 2, I agree with you because it is the easiest thing we can do to introduce bitcoin to our relatives and people, maybe by educating the people closest to us about the benefits of using bitcoin then we have a hand in accelerating bitcoin adoption , because in my opinion, with the right education to people, of course bitcoin information will spread more because the information chain continues to intertwine between humans.
Before we do the first option let us first check the status of bitcoin in our country if it's legal as a currency use. If not then we shouldn't made the idea public but we can still secretly accept bitcoin to our customers.

I heard many posts in regards to this where they approach the owner if they accept btc and use it instead of cash even if it wasn't displayed on the store that they accept btc payments because it was not legal in their country. Option two is straight to the point but it is also risky, I mean they can ignore btc right after away if we include the cons or the disadvantage of it upon encouraging them to join btc but it is also better to be honest so that we shouldn't be blamed later on.
1604  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bearish market continues? on: June 06, 2022, 09:10:24 PM
I don’t know how long this bearish market will continue, but I have a feeling it will be until the mtgox coins are distributed and the ETH 2.0 locked coins can move again.

One thing I will say is that most of the people I know who suddenly took an interest in “crypto” as Bitcoin was brushing up against all time highs are no longer invested. That’s a good first step in clearing out speculation and leverage so we can return to a healthy market.
My feeling is that Bitcoin will start to rise when Quantitative easing from the FED will be released. At the moment, with the falling of market, you shouldn't expect a rise of bitcoin. We should be prepared for a bear market

from here to at least the next year. Once nasdaq will start to rise thanks to grow or quantitative easing, maybe we can look at Bitcoin.
They say that the bear is caused by fed so maybe fed is also the one that can solve this problem and finally turn the market into bull. They are powerful than everyone else but we common individuals are also doing our part to help the market return to normal. Thanks for the info, yes for now we shouldn't expect any rise until the fed is done with that quantitative easing.

We are already in the bear so no worries because people aren't shocked anymore but if what you mean prepare for another drop? Well yes we will prepare for it as well. Btc is the first coin that people look for whenever there is a bear, simply because the coin is already proven for years.
1605  Economy / Economics / Re: Crashes are The Best Times to Get Rich - Robert Kiyosaki on: June 05, 2022, 09:59:10 PM
Having an optimist view despite the recent Bear trend and crashes is one of the better traits traders should have.  We have known Bitcoin to have the ability to rebound and yet many had been pessimists and lots lose hope.  We should look at this bear market in a different view rather than Bitcoin being Doom and as a matter of fact, many known billionaires gain lots of profit by investing in a crashing company or stocks but have been proven to recover.

So what do you think about Kiyosaki's point of view, is it possible that "crashes are the best time to get rich"?
His view is right but he is not the first one that says this. Words like this are always being used to encourage and motivate people to invest in crypto during the bears. He mentioned a lot of numbers there and it seems that he can not properly decide if what is the best number to use when predicting if what will be the possible bottom of btc. finally he end it out with 11k which is very low already in my opinion.

To some, the lowest that they predict for btc is 3k usd but again, I don't think this number is possible anymore. This is going to be an easy money for all of us, in the event btc goes back on this value. People would sell almost anything they got only to get their hands on a one whole bitcoin (lots of it).
1606  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will LUNA's downfall scare away investors from the crypto market? on: June 04, 2022, 04:29:52 PM
Some investors who are new to cryptocurrencies and are recommended to invest in LUNA must experience severe depression and trauma. With that incident I'm sure some of them really think cryptocurrency is a big scam. But in fact they may not have researched the big risks of investing because they were only consumed by the talk that was in LUNA who bought at the initial price.
It is hard to admit it but that is going to be the case that happens if ever the first investment that they picked up is luna or not just luna but any other cryptos that can end up on the same path as luna. We are lucky because by the time we enter here, there are still less scams and it was bitcoin is the one that we pick up first.

If ever there are crypto enthusiast around the people that invests in luna, they can give comfort and educate those people that it was possible for crypto scams to be avoided and not all cryptos are like that that can heavily collapse. Let us only hope that the second time they come back they will now choose the right coin this time because if not then they won't give cryptos a chance anymore.
1607  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Russian head of the committee on Energy about selling oil and gas in Bitcoin on: June 04, 2022, 01:20:25 PM
Good news
Russia open to the use of bitcoin and crypto for international payments - Senior Central Bank official
It will certainly benefit Russian economy  if they accept Bitcoin because they are feeling the impact of hard sanctions but their main partner is China and crypto currencies are banned there so how will it work out. The 2nd issue is volatility of Bitcoin price which is a main hurdle in my opinion to use Bitcoin as method of payment and won't be easy to manage.

It was the the high fees and the slow moving transaction is the main reason why some doubts to use or accept btc as a payment method though volatility could come next to it. So, russian country change their minds again and accepts btc and crypto this time? That's noise. This was already on their plan before but they didn't continued it and demand Russian ruble instead for other countries if they want to purchase oils and gas.

China have banned and unabanned cryptos but we are not sure maybe they now unabanned it again? But, if not then they can still use other forms of payment methods. Russia is their ally so they can accept almost anything.
1608  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What have been your crypto trading experience on: June 03, 2022, 08:55:30 PM
at least you have to minimize the loss so that it doesn't become a big loss. All traders can indeed experience losses, but the profits obtained must also be greater than the losses that have been experienced. Experience is indeed the best teacher to be able to learn better. Master the technical analysis and fundamentals, then the trade will go well and understand what to do. Never trade without having the knowledge, it will just be a waste of money.
Exactly my point, it is literally almost impossible for any successful trader to go on straight  successive trades without losses. There is bound to be lots of losses and as a matter of fact, losses are what makes trade what it is, so it is very normal, very natural and acceptable to experience down times in trade but what is not acceptable is having losses greater than your profits, it exactly means there’s something wrong about the trade which you are not applying or doing right.
1609  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Mentor experience in crypto trading. on: June 02, 2022, 06:25:48 PM
Never had one as per your definition. If reading the forum fellow members and their threads regarding trading is mentorship then yup I get it on daily basis. But part from that I never had in person mentor. May be few tips from friends but not on regular basis. This always had been the case with me. I always pulled trading tips on the forums, books, and may be some YouTube channels which explains how to do technical analysis and work with the day trade. That I am doing on the regular basis. With that said I have also not been mentor for someone. Trading is really something personal these days. Everyone wants to be perfect in it and apply their own strategies for the same.
I totally agree with what you are doing, trading becomes something that is personal, because when applying the method in trading it only feels right for us, and not necessarily suitable for other people's trading. The reason is, the portion of trading and our needs when doing analysis is something that is driven on the basis of need. Always looking for information, self-taught learning is more memorable, even though sometimes make a lot of mistakes.
Another thing to keep in mind is that the market is always changing and the trend is changing every few months and it's more evident in crypto. This shows that no matter how good your mentor is and how vast their knowledge is, you and the mentor will always have to adapt based on how the market is changing and make sure you are up to date with the latest indicators, tools and marketing strategies.

The best way to learn to trade is by following this chain: Trade --> Lose --> Rectify mistakes --> Repeat

The quicker you eliminate the mistakes and rectify them, the better trade you will turn into. Also important to make sure you are not making the same mistake by different means otherwise it will take years to rectify a single mistake.
1610  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: If Bitcoin drops to $8k on: June 02, 2022, 12:54:14 PM
My worst prediction for bitcoin is at $7,000. I am planning to start buying by tranche from $14,000 downwards. I am not selling most my current holdings. So personally I do not want bitcoin to drop that low but if it happens then we will also have the chance to buy more including altcoins. I am considering eth, bnb and then some other few coins that has very high potentials. Sys for example always made it x50 every time the market is bullish period.   
Why worst? Just because it was lower than 8k? But anyone can predict no matter how high or low it is however that's going to be a long wait for you before you buy can btc if that was only your buying point. You plan to buy when btc drops but at the same time you don't want btc to drop? That's confusing but you only need to pick one because whether you like it or not, btc can still drop or rise and also if you don't want to sell your coins, how can you invest at the dip?

But, unless maybe if you have other sources to get money. This is my first time hearing that Sys coin but that is impressive if after every bull run this coin can give you a guaranteed 50x. Eth and bnb are I think still better than sys coin though.
1611  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Doge Future after Elon Musk Buy Twitter ? on: June 02, 2022, 11:52:23 AM
Oh yeah, we all love all this speculation as far as Doge concern because of Elon Musk. Long term it might be good, but we are still not sure what will be the effect. Maybe investor are going to buy Doge again and automatically increase it price because they speculate that Elon will use Doge as tipping scheme for Twitter. Again, the future might look bright for Doge but it doesn't mean that it will enjoy a parabolic rise. It will continue to stay in the market though.
For the development of Dogecoin, it is likely to improve in the future, because the effects of the speculation caused by Elon Musk, but I am not sure that in the future Dogecoin will provide high price returns, investors are no longer interested In the future, if the demand and expenditure is unbalanced, it is certain that Dogecoin will be in the current position, there will be no major changes for Dogecoin going forward
This is quite true, people got a hype back in the day and they were interested in it, but they no longer feel interested in it because there is nothing that attracts attention anymore. Even Elon Musk can't gather enough hype anymore if you ask me, that was a one time thing and it is over now, a few tweets won't change that. Maybe if he ends up tweeting about it daily constantly for a whole month then we could go back to those days but I really doubt if he would do something like that.

This is something that will be old story and we will talk about it in the future "remember when Elon made doge go up?" in the future but that's about it, nothing more for doge in the crypto future.

Running signature campaign has nothing to do with trust/reputation, those sites who think that signature campaign will give them good reputation are absolutely wrong.
Very clear example is 1xbit, they are running signature campaign but their reputation is really bad in this forum because they have so many problems.
Signature campaign is just a way to advertise the site, while trust/reputation is related to its overall services/product and it will be given by players.
Trust is earned when the people are satisfied with your site not given in the form of signature campaigns. I think that some gambling sites think the other way because they can see that there are trusted managers here in the forum and usually when users see that a trusted manager handles a campaign, they will then check it because they also trust the manager and they will think that a manager won't accept a project that are scam because it can affect their reputation. We can see that 1xbit is not managed by any trusted manager but this site did not care about that anymore, what important for them for now is exposure in this forum.

I don't think he will get a copper account, or he will hire a designer to design his thread with all the negative feedback and red flag he is getting I don't think it will motivate him to upgrade unless he is serious about promoting his gambling site and willing to
go to criticism and change a lot on his gambling site, but I doubt he will he did not address questions and bad feedback, so this OP will not come back and just ignore this forum.
I checked his account and I don't see any negative feedback or red flags except only from this thread if that is what you mean? But if he is really serious, he can ignore all of it and prove it by redesigning his thread and then upgrading his account into a cooper member.

Again on his profile I can see that his last active was in may 26 but it's strange that he didn't make any post. It could be that he is only reading our replies here? But, that is a good sign. Maybe he will get motivated one day and start following the advice of the users here. For now, let's try to be easy on him. Further foul words can only make him upset and that can change his mind.
1614  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: June 01, 2022, 09:31:08 PM
Salah and Mane have one more season on contract until June 2023, especially Mane who is rumored to be leaving and Bayern as his best port, if Salah follows him to leave can Liverpool replace the duo with other players? I think it's really difficult to do as much as Liverpool can keep one of them, because Liverpool really rose because of the cohesiveness of their striker to become the best in the EPL.
It's hard to imagine if Salah and Mane left.
The good thing for both Salah and Mane is the fact that their contracts will end at the same time hence they can leverage their contracts that way. They will be able to say "pay us more or we both leave" and ask for a lot more. If it was just one of them, you would just keep one and send the other, but in this situation you can't lose both at the same time. So if two of them get together, they could really milk LFC a lot and get a ton of money.

Not saying that they will do that, all I am saying is that there is a chance they could do something like that if they wanted to. And that is something that LFC should fear, wouldn't wanna be like PSG and end up paying too much.
1615  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Are you using trading indicators? on: June 01, 2022, 08:26:12 PM
To be honest, I try to use as little as possible. And then, as a result, it becomes quite difficult to make a decision on your own. Cry
Not saying you should always use indicators but if you haven't tried them yet, I strongly suggest you use them if you are trading for the short term such as buying and selling the same asset within days or weeks. If you are into long term trading then just the fundamental analysis and scalability of the project should suffice.

Indicators aren't always bad as depicted by some traders. Indicators just help you understand how the market is behaving now and then it's up to the trader if they can use it to their advantage or make matters worst for themselves. I prefer indicators over those fake telegram signals.

Indicators in general are more effective and efficient in stocks market because the volatility is low and the price movement is very limited.
1616  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: If Bitcoin drops to $8k on: June 01, 2022, 07:02:17 PM
I may sell every altcoin that I have. It's an opportunity being given to ride the big boat once again and it's not every day that will happen, perhaps forever it will not happen anymore.
Many followers of the Bitcoin market have regretted selling their Bitcoin a long time ago because of the profit it brought after a pump. Now, it's filled with regret and I won't be a hypocrite saying I was not part of that because I am. I sold my Bitcoins before that were accumulated from faucets because I need the money. I don't regret it much because I can see my kids healthy and happy. Yes, used it for their milk and diapers.  Grin
True, but if Bitcoin drops down to 8k then I assume almost all the meme coins will die and even the big altcoins like ETH, BNB, etc will be crushed badly because it's a global rule; when Bitcoin drops every coin and token will drop as well no matter what the market cap is and what use cases it provides.

And it takes courage to sell known and top altcoins for low prices during those times just to buy Bitcoin. It sounds easy the brain stops working during bear runs for most people Grin.

By the way, you reminded me of faucets and man can you believe that the first-ever Bitcoin faucet used to pay out 5 Bitcoins every claim. Imagine making 10 claims those days and never having to worry about money in your life Kiss.
1617  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading Emotions on: June 01, 2022, 03:06:09 PM
I don't even see the correlation of the OP's explanation with the topic title he created.
what kind of joke does the OP want to make to get a fool to fall into his trap?
very rude way to do a magic trick. even with his new account talking bullshit.
It doesn't make sense apart from the fact that he subtly posted a crypto address and maybe some dumbs will send out donations to that address. These tricks used to work years back when crypto was new, the community was smaller and honest/true to their words.

It's quite hilarious to see so many comments on a thread that should have been reported and locked an hour after it was posted. When I first clicked the thread I felt like someone lost money because of emotional trading which is quite common in crypto but this is just some next level shit which is being trolled around now.

As hugeblack mentioned, there are scammers posting private keys publicly and wait for people to deposit some BNB or ETH and transfer it immediately.
1618  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New coins bring a lot of big profits on: June 01, 2022, 06:30:40 AM
What are your goals when investing in new coins? Did you get a huge profit from the new coins? Can you recommend a new coin worth investing besides LUNA?
Cryptocurrencies have high price volatility.  And new crypto projects of course have a higher risk.  High risk high reward.  New projects can have a profit of up to 90%.  But of course not all new projects are legit.  If you invest wrongly, of course all your money will disappear and of course it is a risk of the crypto currency itself.  I think if you are ready with all the consequences you can try to see new projects at ICO time.
Don't be shy make it a hundred percent because a new coin really can pump up like that if they are lucky to get the attention of the masses but it does not mean that this coin is legit. Most legit coins usually start slow at the beginning but in the middle of their runs, that is where they start to grow.

Sometimes it's not about investing wrongly but it was also about the timing if when to buy and when to sell. In investing, all must be ready to accept whatever outcome they have because investing do always has its own risks. You said something about ico? But, I don't think there are still ico's. What we have now are ido's and ieo's, they are more better than ico's.
1619  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Hard earned money - Busted in seconds on: May 31, 2022, 09:32:27 PM
"In gambling a winner is the one who knows when to stop". the real catch is when to stop in either case you win or lose. Normally
people keep on betting when they are losing or winning and that's where problem start. I am happy that gambling is ban in my country and I gamble rarely on crypto sites.
That means that even gambling is banned on your country, you still happen to gamble at some moments of your life during this rule of law has been implemented. Well, going with the winners who knows how to stop.
IMHO, the correct terms would be disciplined and accountable. Any gambler who's disciplined and accountable will know when it's time to give up and just stop. There will be matters that should be addressed more importantly than going on if they know that they're already defeated for that.
It's not a total loss if you happen to stop when things are not working for you like most of your bets are dropping in losses.

So you definitely do not have a gambling addiction because many people play online casinos via VPN/TOR despite the ban on gambling in their countries. In my city there are no land-based casinos that would have a license and I have to play online. It seems to me I have no gambling addiction as I can leave the gaming area at any time and try to do it immediately after winning and also can do without gambling for a month or more.
To the case of @blatchcorn online gambling may not be that strict on his country because he can still be able to play it and he also didn't mention that he use vpn or same kind of privacy tools to access them. It was the offline or real life gambling that is banned but if you are still accessing them, that is one a sign that you have developed a gambling addiction.

License is a big thing in land based casinos and without them, the place is considered illegal and playing them is a big risk. Something bad can happen to you if you got caught but I think in the online world, license aren't a priority of many gambling sites and you can still play on them legally.
1620  Economy / Speculation / Re: Between $24K and $27K on: May 31, 2022, 08:21:44 PM
No one among us wants to see bitcoin at these prices but how often we have seen the market surprises us.

The range of 24-27K is not out of the question, even though bitcoin has gone above 30K once again. I feel that in normal circumstances bitcoin should move up from these ranges but in case of any bad news (Like a prolonged war between Ukraine and Russia, bitcoin can again test these 20ish levels.
There are some people who see 38-41k period and see the 28k-31k period as the same and worry that the price could go down because of this. I believe that it will not be like that and I believe that we are going to end up with a high price, but unfortunately not everyone feels the same way.

I know that we are going to go up, and feel like it is just about time, we could reach to like 40k+ at least within the next 3 months give or take, and that is a good return if you invest right now. Hopefully people will not be too late and everyone joins in before it goes up too much and they miss out. In the end, people who take the risk and invest when its low, will be the ones who will profit when it's high.
