241  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: BetCoin.ag closed account and stole around 1 BTC on: November 11, 2020, 03:23:27 PM
i have just updated my thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5285526.0) with this screenshot



i made sbr report on October 26 and since that day i have not heard a word


Do you guys feel this is a normal situation?
It sad that you made that losses but we the bitcointalk community could not help i your situation but only to discuss matter with you and get the attention of the forum representative for Betcoin.ag for you to resolve your issues or discuss with. In my part, I do believe that there is just a miscommunication between both parties and that could be resolved. If not then I guess you need to move o  OP and find a better platform instead. Do not forget to read the Terms and Agreement of the platform you will be joining.
242  Economy / Scam Accusations / Cryptoclub300 uses bitcoin as an option to withdraw money, A ponzi platform! on: November 11, 2020, 02:36:58 PM
Another ponzi scheme that is rampant here in our place. My friend ask me to join and invited into crypto investment (crypto trading platform). The process is that you will going to link your btc wallet and buy crypto pack in the platform. Little by little you have to sell your crypto pack until such you will get a 150% total accumulated from the money you invested.

However, you need to be quick to sell not getting your money stuck that can happen during their reset of their platform. All unclaim money will be given to you little by little over a longer period of days like it takes a year to accumulate the money that was not claim or withdrawn during the reset by deligently claim it in daily basis.

Of course if you are new and able to join this platform you will not be told and most likely everyone will going to lose first in the process of earning profit in the later part of the investment. I do believe that it will going to collapse sooner or later.

Wow, they sure to have a great money receive in their winnings. If I am not mistaken if that money will be converted to our fiat currency that could buy house and lot, apartment, good cars, can live in a luxury life and and make girls fall in love with that money they win. Well, life is very short to live after all. We should be happy right now that we are healthy and away from sickness. Winning that big amount of money to lotteries are just a bonus. Anyway, congratulations to the lucky ones.
244  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How long until we can bet with bitcoin in real life casinos? on: November 11, 2020, 01:30:58 PM
why so excited? Do you have lots of BTC? Well I can also say that betting with BTC is good to.keep yourself from being private especially when you like to bet huge. Most likely spectators are always fan of watching gamblers with huge bet. That usually happens in the casino and a gambler may not able to concentrate on betting. And with bitcoin I think everything will be possible and with optimum comfort when betting to a casino wanting to get privacy.

Please do not be offended but this whole post is just a recap of what this board is all about and it is useless to create such a topic when we have a dedicated board.

I am not sure what made you create this topic?

Things are very different now to what it was two years ago, earlier newbies never understood cryptocurrency and how it worked now most of them are. Still, it is a good topic but very late to write it.


There is never late to discuss anything. If you had just read the tips that I am providing then probably you can think of that it could be helpful to newbie. In you case it wouldn't be helpful because you know about this and it does not excite you. But what about those newbie users here coming asking for best bitcoin wallet?, what to do in the forum? I am just new here what to do? How to earn in cryptocurrency? These are the type questions that is visible in this section that happens to be seeing your reply as well to those clueless newbies that are here around. Later or sooner this thread will.be buried over other threads and it can't reach to the future newbie as well so what can we do is to continue spread awareness by bumping old threads but has not been updated or create new thread with new trends, current events and things tha happen around.

Of course, before posting one must think what is needed to address the problem of the community. Now, the new trend in investing and that is why we can see visibly the bitcoin market. To encourage more to invest or to be aware of what to do posting like this for me is an ideal thing.

Do not get offended too with my reply for I am also trying to be helpful regardless of what others say but my intention is for the good.
246  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BUY 32 ETH on: November 10, 2020, 01:37:14 PM
For them it will be possible because they had such money that can afford to buy 32 Eth. This is only to show support with the current upgrade of the crypto. I do believe that the new ETH 2.0 had brought so much good for the community. I think the network for ETH was the main reaosn for the upgrade. We know that there are many projects that are actually using the ETH platform.or network so it is time for ETH to showcase on what really the upgrade was all about.
247  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will YFI go down again? on: November 10, 2020, 01:18:34 PM
I do not know of much about this coin but it did beat bitcoin in terms of market price where it even surpasses bitcoin market price after recorded 30K $ per coin. I do not know if this coin is good to invest but for now my advise if you want to get optimum profit will not be good to invest. All crypto now are positive because it all influence with bitcoin market. If I were you then wait for bitcoin market to fall down or it crashes then invest the crypto yoi wanted to obtain. I think that would be ideal.
248  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto Scam? ICO Scam? IEO Scam and Now DeFi Scam? on: November 10, 2020, 12:58:43 PM
It is not all about the crowdfunding activity rather it is all about the scammers that are fan of copying or taking advantage on the HYIP or FOMO in project investment. We know how good DEFI projects are but are now slowly degrading after some DEFI look alike crowdfunding projects that are only after for scamming. We could not avoid this because they are good in scamming and are free to do so. The best thing to do here is to always be aware and get inform in every project that will be reported in the scam and reputation board.
249  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is an entertainment? on: November 10, 2020, 12:38:45 PM
Of course, gambling is an entertainment. Only because of the psychological disorders that are observed in some people gambling can turn into a strong dependence, which can eventually lead to very unfortunate consequences. If you notice that one of your relatives becomes dependent on gambling, it is better to consult with health professionals.
Maybe because when you gamble you are getting fun and excitement through betting. But to few gambling is not only entertainment but also a business to get profit or living for those who are working in a gambling casino. I know few of those who get gambling as their means of living like those personnel and staff working in gambling casino or even the able services that are always keeping the floor clean. They always shared their story that they are only getting or receiving little salary but they keep up because other gamblers are generous to them giving them always a tip especially when they win.
250  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: PRIZE OF FIGHTING Boxing’s biggest contracts revealed on: November 10, 2020, 12:21:57 PM
im looking for a few names but they arent included on the list . those that are on the list are mostly boxers that i dont know but the money that they obtain upon thier contract are freakin huge but i already know that boxing is a high paying sport more than others . the pay was huge because its entertaining and most of all its because there is a danger that accompanies to the boxer every time they step on that square shaped ring . for thier investment , i heard a few boxer that are not on the list that invest on cryptos but most of them invest on stocks and non decentralized assets
Yeah I agree with you there are many boxers offers or had sign a big money involve contract but are not in the list. Of course, probably they just wanted to get privacy from their earnings being made. I bet also when publshing something like this it should be ask by the people involve itself as a sign of respect to that person before any conflict that could arise if publishing article for them without asking for permission.

I wish too more merit source to be accepted to get a better chance in getting merit. The more merit source the merrier could it be because they can be a great help in spotting good posta which are relatively could be overlook with few merit source. Besides, not all merit source are always online if course they also need rest and the merit source designation is only an extra baggage for them in here getting free of payment to rewards and look for deserving posts to be merited.
252  Other / Beginners & Help / Tips to overcome fear crypto investment and reason to invest for newbies on: November 10, 2020, 06:57:07 AM
We all know that most of us failed in some of our investment may it small or big form of investment. Failing is part of becoming successful that we can be proud of one day. Failure is inevitable in the process of learning but do we need to fear of something when we fail? I guess we have the same answer and that is definitely we will not fear to get lose because that is part of learning.  

However, there are instances that we our fear conquers our intention to pursue in what we do like investing wherein this is something that we always wanted to get a good return. Right?

Introduction to Cryptocurrency Investment
Cryptocurrency has a broad application in our daily life. It is not only focus as a digital currency for it depend on the crypto for its utilization. Others consider crypto like bitcoin as an investment or an asset where one could store bitcoin in cold storage for safety keeping making it as a reserve money like gold. So, if you wanted to invest, or think of crypto as an asset or something to which you are not sure then follow these simple tips below,

Tips to get the fear out when investing cryptocurrency based on my own simple analysis and what I have also learn in this forum.

1. Learn first the basic of creating wallet, transferring coins or buying crypto on exchange.
Chose the best wallet and exchange in your place or in your country. Try your first purchase or trade with small amount of money to test out the process. You can learn it by searching tutorials like in youtube or google on how to do it or better ask someone you know that could help you with the process.
2. Know when is the best time to invest in cryptocurrency.
Definitely you can observe it for crypto market is sometimes crashing or sometimes doing well. This is for the optimum profit you can get when buy cheap and sell when market is high or crypto became expensive.
3. Do your own research.
Before you invest it is ideal to conduct a good research. For me ideally when it comes to invest only bitcoin and other establish altcoins could do better in cryptocurrency investment like ETH and XRP.
4. Invest only money that you can afford to lose.
Never be afraid to invest but never also compromised the priorities you have in your life especially if you are a breadwinner in the family.
5. Hold or HODL,
This when market seem so bad after you invested do not get emotional with your money that are making potential losses. Remember that when you sell it out then you will lose not only with your money but the ability to enjoy the new trend or this technology that has to offer in you.
6. Do not be greedy,
If you feel like investing more then that could be a sign of greed but it is alright to invest more when you wanted. Just remember the the tip # 3 to only invest only the money you can afford to lose.
7. Fear Of Missing Out (FOMO)
This is related to being greedy but sometimes it is better not to believe on everyone here when they say about things that they claim they are sure to happen. You can get a FOMO in that lead you to bad decision making.
8. High Yield Investment Program
There are many members especially if you have social media platform like facebook, twitter, telegram and etc. making a private message with you discussing about a certain program you can invest or project that yield high returns. More of it are scam so one must be careful not to engaged in any of them inviting you to invest.
9. Scam, Never trust anyone with your money.
Free giveaways, from fake people using the names and pictures of high profiles in cryptocurrency about a certain giveaways like if you give me 2 ETH i will send you 4ETH that will not going to happen and that is a scam.
10. Be careful with fake sites,
Fake sites could lead your important details of wallet to be compromised so whenever you will visit a certain site make sure that it is right or correct site. Others are bookmarking legit site in their browser for easy access and for security purposes.

Lastly, Do not forget to sell when market for crypto is good.


What is a good reason to join cryptocurrency investment

For me, cryptocurrency is like a financial literacy, an access for Financial Freedom away from the inflation rate that could hit the fiat currency. If you do not believe then try to assess the value of fiat currency now and before,

Comparison
|
Currency(peso)
|
before 10 years ago
|
now(present)
|
|
goody2x snack and ice cold watee
|
1 peso
|
5 pesos
|
|
transportation fare going to wet market
|
3.50 pesos
|
10 pesos
|
|
money I gave to homeless in the street
|
3 pesos
|
20 pesos
|
|
money I gave to my nephew
|
1 peso
|
5 pesos
|
|
cheap in during night life drinking sessions (tanduay)
|
20 pesos
|
50 pesos
|

See, these are only a few of example that all or mostly fiat currency are hitting with inflation rate a complete opposite when you get bitcoin as your asset or investment.

What do you think?
253  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Be a wise investor on: November 09, 2020, 03:38:47 PM
Yes of course, if now bitcoin will going to have a  bullrun this year then I can say that by the time that bitcoin market falls that would be the best time to invest in bitcoin. For now, it would be alright to invest considering that bitcoin market always goes up because more and more people will going to make use of bitcoin and that will determine the bitcoin market price in the future. Bitcoin can reach probably up to 50k$ in the future. Bitcoin is unpredictable so who knows it can really achieve that great.
254  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin reach $20K soon? on: November 09, 2020, 03:11:21 PM
Within couple of days Bitcoin went bullish with newest peak of $15,596 last Friday. Analysts have already started predicting the next big move that could possibly push Bitcoin above its all-time high of $20,000. Will that happen before this year ends?

Read article:

Bitcoin (BTC) Smashes Past $15,500 With Ethereum (ETH) Leading The Altcoins Party

Crypto market was rapidly growing well, So end of the year we expect the 20k USD on BTC. We know already market is boom so we can expect the further growth in Bitcoin. Decentralized platform was more comfortable to invest for everyone because it will grow unexpectedly so peoples are ready buy huge volume coin. I think we never see this link because we know the each and every growth of Bitcoin.
Well, high chance it could reach to that point or even more. However, if you are new in bitcoin investments better not get too hype with other members around talking about the bull run. Yeah it may going to happen but still manage the financial aspect and invest only the money yoi can afford to lose. This is a very simple.advise and hopefully not many will going to.make losses in the process of bitcoin market sudden market price surge. Anyway, good luck to all bitcoin holders. It seems that this year is the year for bitcoin bull run.
255  Economy / Gambling discussion / PRIZE OF FIGHTING Boxing’s biggest contracts revealed on: November 09, 2020, 02:26:55 PM
Some of the sport's top attractions have been given eye-watering guarantees when signing on the dotted line.

Canelo Alvarez - £278m
The Mexican star signed sport's most lucrative deal ever in 2018, when he penned an 11-fight DAZN agreement worth £278m ($365) spanning over five years.
But just three bouts and two years into the contract and Alvarez requested it be terminated as he split with DAZN and Golden Boy Promotions.
He still banked around £64.6m as a result of beating Rocky Fielding, Daniel Jacobs and Sergey Kovalev.
Canelo, 30, is now set to control his own career and return as a box office fighter, opposed to DAZN's streaming platform.
image loading...


Floyd Mayweather - £150m
When Mayweather came out of prison in 2012, he signed an exclusive six-fight PPV deal with Showtime a year later worth £150m.
But the American legend ended up taking home £340m thanks to the box office success of his fights against Canelo and Manny Pacquiao.
Mayweather, 43, retired after beating Andre Berto in 2015, but returned in 2017 to face UFC star Conor McGregor in a lucrative crossover event.
It was not included in his initial contract, meaning the £300m he banked after stopping McGregor in ten rounds means he earned about £640m while boxing on Showtime.
image loading...


Anthony Joshua - £100m
Joshua penned a new three-year contract with Matchroom Boxing in 2018, worth £100m, SunSport reported at the time.
Since then, Eddie Hearn's Matchroom signed a £760m deal with DAZN, who broadcast AJ's fights Stateside.
Joshua landed himself a career high payday last December, after pocketing £66m after outpointing Andy Ruiz Jr in their Saudi Arabia rematch.
The 31-year-old's net worth is now estimated to be around £90m, according to Sportekz.
image loading...


Mike Tyson - £90m
Promoter Don King claimed in 1990 that Tyson had a contract with Showtime that guaranteed him £90m ($120m).
His last fight on HBO was against Alex Stewart, before he had two wins against Donovan Ruddock as part of his fresh Showtime agreement.
But Tyson was jailed in 1992 after being convicted of rape and spent three years behind bars before returning to the ring in 1995.
Iron Mike, now 54, would re-sign with Showtime after his prison release, making around £215m more before retiring in 2005.
image loading...


Tyson Fury - £90m
In early 2019, Fury made the shock decision to postpone his rematch with Deontay Wilder to instead sign a deal with Top Rank and ESPN.
The contract was widely reported to be worth £80m as the Gypsy King had two tune up fights in the US before facing Wilder again.
He emphatically stopped the Bronze Bomber in seven rounds in a PPV which sold over 1 million buys in America and the UK combined.
Fury, 32, has two fights left on his current contract.

What do you think of these pro boxers with biggest contracts?
Where could they invest their money now?

256  Other / Politics & Society / Retirement! on: November 09, 2020, 01:34:14 PM
Retirement

1. one day you will retire. You won't be going to work. You won’t have office power any more. No influence or at best, a reduced influence. Your cash flow will also reduce.! Check retirement date on your payslip.

2. Always  go for your 30days annual leave. Whatever you do during your leave, is what you will be doing when you retire. If all you do is to sleep or watch TV, then that’s what you are likely do do in your retirement. Remember the book of Proverbs. A little sleep and a little slumber, so shall your poverty multiply.
Watching Big Brother Naija will not save you heartache in retirement. Learn a trade or a skill during your leave. It will come handy. Spend your after-office hours learning something. Don’t spend it sleeping, Gossiping, watching TV!! Same goes for your weekend. Make them productive. You will thank yourself for spending your time productively.

3. Invest for your retirement... your children are not retirement investment. Don’t bank on your children’s support or the support of friends or relations. That’s a BIG risk. It may not happen. Be ready to take care of yourself!! Everyone has his own responsibilities. They won’t be able to help you that much. You will also lose your dignity and respect if you adopt a life of begging.

4. Start a hobby early in your working days to take you along when you retire. Rearing chicken, farming or own a shop. Acquire marketable skills ( not useless paper certificates) Etc

5. Where shall you retire. Build yourself a home. Don't retire and start to rent a house or refuse to vacate government house. You will be at the mercy of your landlord at a time when your cash flow is not only reduced but unpredictable!!

6. Who shall be your dependants. By the time you retire, your children should be above 18, and self reliant.

7. Don't retire and stay in a big city unless you can TRULY afford it. You can't continue living in a big city after 60 with limited financial resources. The language and the hustle will be hard for you. Where possible, Relocate to a less expensive town where your reduced take home (pension) can go further.

8. Have property which can be rented or converted into cash. Have shares that pay good dividends. Plant cash trees. Rear goats, cultivate vegetables etc. these activities will not only give you income but will also keep you healthy.

9. Live a simple life. If you never built a house at your rural home, dont use your retirement package to build. It is unwise unless you plan to live there on a permanent basis or you are super rich and therefore can afford the luxury. The choice is yours.

Note that many of retirees die early because of the following:

1. They are Not mentally prepared to retire.
2. Lack of finances
3. They Lapse into Depression
4 They develop Hypertension/ Diabetes because of worries, anxiety and uncertainty "and financial pressures.

YOUR DESK AT YOUR WORK PLACE IS NOT PERMANENT. PLAN  FOR YOUR RETIREMENT.

I will be counting on your project. I know that you are one reputable bounty manger here in the forum so I guess I can expect a good bounty project coming from you. Base also in your previous projects that are successful and bounty hunters were able to benefit the rewards as profits. Hopefully OP you will going to continue and share bounty projects that can help many here in the forum. Most likely only few are reputable bounty managers and you OP belong to the group of good bounty managers.

Well, another lesson to learn. In the world of cryptocurrency where there is a full of treat one must be creative when storing crypto and should not believe anything that has been sent to your email or something. Usually it is a trap and that one should avoid in getting to it. I suggest that whenever you wanted to invest in cryptocurrency is to make it offline and never let someone access it through the internet. Meaning to say that you should remain to store your crypto offline. The rest is that you need to be careful not to get affected by scam attempt using email with their trap being set up for you.
