This is probably because they are getting bored especially with the pandemic and lesser sports event to make bets that's why they are trying to find other "new" ways of betting. Though it's just kinda getting weirder the more they include different animals in betting. Animals do nothing that they are already being the subject for betting just to satisfy people's desires.

I kinda understand how others find it entertaining making bets with other animals, but I don't get what's exciting and entertaining waiting for sharks to migrate just to see where they are going. But for me, as long it's not harming any sharks, then they can spend their money on the things they want.

You have been claiming that for a year already, and yet you failed to provide supporting statements that will clarify your idea which you see in this post. As the creator of bitcoin has remained anonymous, until now, there has been a different speculative. So, why don't you present your analysis, the documents, and articles that discuss bitcoin is created by banks? In doing so, people can validate your statements and perceive your point.

Like what others said, bitcoin is still the same and in fact, it's getting more attention in investments. Being good or not now depends on how you will handle your investments in bitcoin to earn a good profit and avoid losses. And it seems that you've been here in crypto space before so it's not new to you at all so it means that you know how the market works.

But I'm wondering what made you come back when you mentioned that you are already getting a lot of income in your current business? Does it mean that it's affected by the pandemic? Why would you invest your business in bitcoin when you have a good profit there? Maybe you can invest some, but is it necessary to invest all?

Actually, bitcoin is legit it's just that people are abusing it that's why some people still doubt Bitcoin. I don't know why you still have some doubts and still ask this kind of question when you have been active here in the forum for some time already. Also, would people like us still be into Bitcoin or even spend time here if it's not legit? While safety is already on your part, how you will secure your assets.

I would understand OP asking this question if you are new to bitcoin but since you've been here for a year now, why still ask this kind of question?

Of course, sports event organizers need to find a good way to continue leagues even with the new set-up. It's hard actually, but everyone needs to understand that there are more limitations now because of the pandemic. And yes, it's not the same as before but it's good already to see that they are also trying their best just to resume games to give fans what they want. As long as leagues were able to finish the game safely, it's already considered a success regardless of the new changes and for me, that's what matters.

When there's a recession, the major effect is on the traditional market and I think there's only a little to no effect on crypto depending on how popular crypto is on a certain country being affected. I mean most of the people are still dependent on the central authorities even with this kind of problem since only a few knew about crypto. Unless the recession is getting out of hand and is already causing a big problem, then people will find a solution or an escape, and crypto can be one of that. However, crypto should not always be seen as the solution to every problem the economy faces.

Bitcoin has different purposes and it's just up to you on what reason you will be using bitcoin. It's just evident how a lot of people see bitcoin as one of the good ways of investing that's why you will see people making it as an investment. But it's not just limited to that because as what I have said, it has different purposes like you can also use it for daily transactions and such. And to answer your question, bitcoin is not just, particularly for investors. It's up to us on how we see bitcoin works the best.

We don't have to generalize it, every coin is different from the other one. Just because they are both cryptocurrency, it does not mean that they will end up the same way. As I read the unpleasant experience of Jen McAdams, I feel that it will open the eyes of investors about trusting a stranger and believing an easy money investment. I think that it will teach an important lesson to investors that may influence them to be aware that such circumstance may happen if they easily trust a high promising profit.

Ito ang dahilan kung bakit mahalaga ang pagkakaroon ng sapat na kaalaman kung paano ito nangyayari at kung anong mga platform ang ginagamit ng mga scammers upang makapanloko ng iba. Hindi din dapat ipinagsasawalang bahala ang ganitong pangyayari lalo na at laganap ito, hindi lamang sa YouTube kundi maging sa Twitter at Telegram. Ang maaari nating gawin upang makaiwas sa ganitong klase ng scam ay ang maging mapanuri at mag conduct ng sarili nating research. Mas mabuti na maghanap pa ng ibang source na magpapatunay na legitimate yung giveaway. At, Para magkaroon kayo ng idea yung iba kung paano nila mapoprotektahan ang kanilang sarili sa iba't ibang klase ng fake giveaway scams, I suggest na basahin ito.

Target talaga nila yung may maraming subscribers para mas madaming makakita at makapanood. Gaya nitong Thai YouTuber na kamakailan lang ay na-hack ang kanyang YouTube channel at gaya nung nangyari kay Dogie, napalitan din ang pangalan nito into "Live News" at ginawang private yung mga videos para magmukhang nadelete ang mga ito. At kahit madami na kilalang personalidad na ang nag file ng complaint sa YouTube dahil sa ganitong klase ng scam ay mapapansin na patuloy pa din ang paglaganap nito.

I never really thought that this kind of betting would occur as a replacement for the lack of sports events due to the pandemic. For me, this is something new but I wonder if bettors and gamblers would find interest in this kind of betting with sharks. Unlike the usual betting, I just find it not exciting or anticipating so I'm not sure if a lot of bettors will be interested. On the other hand, it's good to know that there are also some benefits to this for the sharks, not just making money out of it.

Ans. 1. It's because I'm not the athletic type so I only have few sports that I like watching and that's basketball. I also included CSGO because I also played this one and other several e-sports. Sleeping because I would prefer to sleep than to watch other sports that I'm not a fan of.

Ans. 2.Probably no because as I mentioned above, I'm not athletic so there's no big effect on my lifestyle. Maybe for e-sports back then because when I was so into it, it affected me negatively like in my studies.

Ans. 3.Well that's something special or something to remember because opportunities like that don't usually come for all fans. So I would be happy and excited of course.

Ans. 4.There's always a possibility once you get to know more about certain sports but for now, I'm not really into other sports.

Ans. 5.Would they know if I will still keep following the sport in the future? Would someone be willing to monitor my life just to ensure that I don't follow that certain sport anymore? So I will take that 1btc.

Twitter hackers who use this kind of scheme usually target famous people with a high number of followers so they can find more victims that will fall for it. Usually, people with no enough awareness tend to believe in what these famous persons are saying on social media even without checking it. And since hackers are continuously growing, it's not new at all so people on Twitter should be careful, not only for influential people but also for regular ones because not everything they will see or encounter in Twitter or any other platforms is real especially if it involves money.

I agree with you, projects that have a promising return of investment are a sign of a red flag and most of the projects who have this kind of thing must be avoided. And a 500% ROI is huge and I think this kind of tactic helps them to attract investors to invest. But how sure are they to tell that they will gain 500% cause we all know that the market is very unpredictable and no one knows what will gonna happen? Therefore, it's not a good project to watch this year and it's better to find decent projects that have more potential and is more realistic than this one

Others already included some threads you can look at, and it may take a lot of readings and time understanding the forum rules and bitcoin in general, but if you are willing to learn, it'll be worth it.

Here they are again, using these shady tactics to draw attention. Despite seeing a significant sign, many people still assumed that this kind of investment represents an earning opportunity. However, they don't visualize the risk they may encounter. Investors should be responsible for their own money, as scams continue regardless of diverse situations. Never put your trust in an ad without confirming if it is legitimate. Always do your research.

There are significant changes in sports that need to be adopted to keep everyone safe during the pandemic and this is affecting sports events, teams, and even fans/bettors.

Since you have mentioned e-sports I think e-sports are affected positively because they are getting more attention nowadays. More people are currently staying at home and e-sports is one of the ways to entertain ourselves since there are lessen sports events.

It should not be included as an idea to gain merit in the first place. We should not even give it a thought, as people make an effort to establish a good amount of knowledge, carry out research to learn and understand various topics, so they will be able to share it with the others. You can only rely on yourself to move forward as a member of this forum. Also, based on what you have mentioned, you probably know how most users here work such as working hard, etc, so perhaps you could start applying it to yourself mate.

For me, it's okay to reply as long as you don't easily give your trust since it's a stranger you are talking to. But if that's the kind of message I will receive, No. I won't bother to reply to that and will just ignore it, I mean it's pretty obvious that it's a sort of scam trying if you will get swayed by the message. But for me, the message is not tempting at all because who would believe that some random old lady is willing to give her money to random people just because she's dying.

Somehow it's a good thing that we are seeing more emerging crypto-related projects nowadays because it just means that more people are recognizing and adopting it compared to when it was just starting. However, it's also visible that there are scam projects and like what you said, not everyone is successful. So emerging projects can be a sign of the rise of crypto but it does not mean that all projects are worth trusting so we should still be careful because scammers are just using the hype for project development to scam people.
