The key thing that Warriors did was the fact that they have been basically a method of ball movement in the last 5 or so years and kept that going with Klay coming back. I mean Curry is a superstar, probably getting to that top 10 ever list soon, maybe in someone's top 10 already, but they do not just give the ball to him and let him score, they pass the ball around, and others score as well.

This is why it was so easy for them to beat Mavs who relied on Doncic a lot, even when Dinwiddie ended up helping so much, it was clear that they were not really doing anything that would contribute as a team. If Curry wins a ring again and he is FMVP again, I say he is top 10 of all time.

This is actually working out well for USDT as well and Tether company. You know why? Because investors withdrew all that much money, and they were capable of withdrawing that much money without the price moving at all. There are so many projects where if you withdraw 10 billion dollars, they would either not be able to pay it, or they would have a problem in the long run.

This is something we need to care about a lot, if Tether is capable of paying this much, then it is going to end up with a good result in the long run. They are gaining a lot of trust with this move, and people will trust a lot more money to them when the bull market comes by looking at this move.
2663  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Are you using trading indicators? on: May 27, 2022, 04:54:28 PM
I used to use them a lot, now I just use indicators to see where the market "should" go, and not trade only looking at them. Of course that is a good thing but it is not enough. I have seen a good explanation for this, the north star will show you where the north is, but it will not show you the obstacles along the way, you may go left and right time to time before you continue go towards north, and indicators only show you north, and not show you those obstacles.

If you consider that during trading and make sure that you are looking at the right direction but take the path with least resistance, then you will be profiting a lot more.
2664  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Altcoin investments have become risky this day. on: May 27, 2022, 10:11:39 AM
Now the bear market we are going through and bitcoin has declined so sharply, then to invest is certainly very risky especially in new altcoins and cannot face the situation as it is today, Many of us are currently feeling panic because we have held several coins but until now there has not been the slightest profit even we have suffered losses let alone investors who hold luna coins are certainly very hit by the current situation, I don't think this is the time to invest.
What are you talking about? Price going down is the least riskiest moment to buy something. I am not talking about go ahead and buy luna because it dropped so much, of course do not invest into anything that will make you lose money, but at the end of the day Bitcoin is a marvellous and amazing project and it will recover and you are going to make a lot of money.

This is why people should be investing into bitcoin when it goes down. Same goes for most major stocks as well, like if google or apple goes down, you end up buying it because you know that in the long term those companies will make you money and they will go up, because they are great in its core it is just the market that's shit at that point.
2665  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: OneCoin Founder Added to Europes Most Wanted People on: May 27, 2022, 07:25:52 AM
In today's age and time, I do not believe that people could be hiding and nobody could find them. The only reason people may not be found is the fact that they are not looked for that carefully. USA literally found a guy in a dirt in the ground in the other side of the world. Finding some coin scammer would be fairly simple compared to that if they are looking for her.

Right now, it became a bit easier because Most Wanted list means that she will be looked for in the long run and will be using a lot more resource to find her. What was the point of it all? You could have 100+ billion dollars, if you can't spend it and live a great life, then why would you get it?
2666  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is this the end or only the beginning on: May 27, 2022, 05:29:00 AM
I am not sure if there will be tons of other ones but I am sure that it won't be as much as people think it will be. I know that it will be a bit of a problem at some time but it will be just like 2021 and 2020 and the same. I just think that wee should not be considering the rug pull projects as a problem. They have been here for many years and they will continue to be here and everything will be the same.

We haven't gone down this much from any other rug pull before, Luna caused the whole market to go down and that is a rare situation but I am sure that no matter what happens with the rug pulls, the bitcoin long term trajectory is great.
2667  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Your recent altcoin investment and why? on: May 26, 2022, 09:36:44 PM
I have been eyeing Wave again as well. It hasn't been high recently and the drop has been a very serious and it is not really that much of a big deal and I understand that it is not going to be that easy. However, we are talking about a coin that has been doing things that these new popular ones have been doing for a long time, that should be good enough reason to make me think that it is going to be quite popular one day again.

I am not investing a lot because it has been popular once and I haven't seen many coins become popular, drop off the radar, and become popular again but there is a good chance that this would at least not keep going down and that would be great.
2668  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: May 26, 2022, 08:39:44 PM
Back in the day of 2004, Detroit Pistons built a team of players that were not seen as great players neither, Ben Wallace was undrafted as well, and many other players were drafted low too, and yet they achieved a championship.

It is not impossible, it is not like you need to have superstars in your team on each position, but it is quite difficult to do that. Like for example 2011 had Dirk, and nobody else played in the all-star game if I am not wrong. This type of situation is happening again to Mavs, and it is a very tough thing. I am not saying that they won't become good, they may, but it is going to be very tough to get that good.
2669  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which Altcoins did you have (All time in your protofilo) on: May 26, 2022, 11:21:45 AM
I know this is boring but having ETH, BNB, LTC are the most proud ones that I have. I have a smaller amount of matic, avax, dot as well and a tiny bit of sxp as well which I still regret buying because it doesn't look like it will recover, but that seemed like a good idea at the time.

I know that it's going to be a big problem not to diversify and that is one of the issues that I have, majority of my money is in bitcoin, ethereum, litecoin and bnb which means that if one of them goes down for a reason then I will be in trouble but I believe them long enough that I think that they will be good without ever having any problem at all.
2670  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: NFTs new features on the market on: May 26, 2022, 09:49:56 AM
Utility is the only thing that makes any NFT worth anything if you ask me, other than that they will never mean anything at all. I get that some people may have met it recently but we have seen NFT mindset with cryptokitties maybe like 5 years ago or so, which is why it is not a new thing to us.

Maybe NFT craze happened in the past 1 year, and that is why there are so many people so much money, but why would veterans do that when we all know what happened to cryptokitties after a while? Same happened to axie now as well, things that worth 300+ dollars a piece for a while, went down south so quickly. Even utility may not save them at some points.
2671  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Should I buy BTC or DCA other coins? on: May 26, 2022, 07:22:04 AM
How about combine the two and DCA bitcoin? That is what I am doing and I am quite happy about it as well. There is nothing wrong in doing it like this, you could make a profit by DCA your way into bitcoin, and even do instalments. I had a friend who put order on his credit card to withdraw $500 worth and buy bitcoin with it, I think it was from coinbase? Not sure which exchange but it withdrew $500 automatically on 2nd of each month, and bought bitcoin with it at whatever the price was at that point. He has been doing this for around 7 years now, he has SO MUCH money, did some other trades too of course, but it made him a wealthy person.

We all "probably" could afford that, would be hard, but could have tried it, if it meant 1+ million dollars today, but we didn't had the courage.
2672  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: May 26, 2022, 05:49:44 AM
I am not sure if these two teams will provide anything big. The teams that go from bundesliga 2 to bundesliga 1 usually end up at around mid table and that would be the best they will do for a while. There is a reason why they dropped and there is a reason why they won't be good and they are the same reasons. When a team is not managed properly, it is usually quite normal for people to not find anything decent in those teams because it is rare for them to do better.

I guess that management will do the same mistakes, the team will not be getting richer and not going to find amazing players and we are going to end up with them being bad in a few seasons again.
2673  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETH Is A Scam Like Terra Luna And Only Makes Millionaires Rich Who Hold 1000ETH on: May 26, 2022, 04:58:22 AM
Why focus just on the fact that you could become a billionaire with it? I mean what if I am just looking for an early retirement? First of all, I believe that bitcoin and eth and similar high stuff could still go x10, which means that there is still time to get rich from them as well.

ETH around 20k is not something unexpected, hell it could even break current bitcoin ATH as well, which is 68k, but in 10-20 years. So that means if I buy eth a bit every month, then keep doing it for 20 years, then we are going to be making a good amount of money and retire early and will be happy. Hence, stop caring about just putting 100 bucks in and make 10 million from it.
2674  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price with a 4 year cycle? on: May 25, 2022, 09:30:22 PM
Halving is something that we keep on hoping all the time but to be fair I do not think that we need to wait for the halving for the next ATH. I think the next one is 2024 right? Maybe before that happens we are going to reach 68k+ price and break the ATH price. That would be something we need to work for though, it is not going to be something easy and we are not going to be making a ton of money easily by just waiting.

We need to get in, we need to buy more, if not you then the person next to you, without the market buying more bitcoin then how could it go up? So, in the end, someone needs to buy and we need to convince those people to do it now and not a few months later.
2675  Economy / Economics / Re: Covid omicron version 2.0 monkeypox coming and markets on: May 25, 2022, 08:08:06 AM
I am sick and tired of this just like billions in the world. I do not think that we would have lockdowns again, and I believe that world is at a place where we would literally prefer to die instead of going back to pandemic methods until it's too late.

World has lived through some horrible years, I made less last year and making double right now and still not living easily because economy is so screwed and so terrible. This should be even worse, inflation may cause us to earn a lot more but living is a lot harder these days. I am barely living by, it is getting worse each and every month and I do not know what to do. If there is another thing like this, I do not think that I can survive it.
2676  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How centralized stablecoins keeps their value? on: May 25, 2022, 05:08:22 AM
Reality is that Tether company says that they are willing to buy it back from you. Which makes some people know this, even test it at times, and since it has been proven to be true so far, if it ever goes under 1 dollar, so like becomes 97 cents, then these people pay bitcoin to get it, and make it higher, because they trust the system and think it will be 1 dollar and they can get 1 dollar from tether.

So, if there is a big drop, many will spend billions to get it back to 1 again so that they could return it to tether if they have to and get it. This chain would be broken in a second and USDT could worth zero the moment Tether doesn't pay up when asked.
2677  Economy / Exchanges / Re: New bitcoin fork on Yobit? This is another shitcoin on: May 25, 2022, 04:32:26 AM
I agree that nobody should be considering even a small amount of respect towards that platform. I mean they have been ousted as a shit exchange that scams people and there were too many people that lost their money there and didn't get it back. When they had signature campaign here, they paid so much money and many people participated and that was a big discussion, heated arguments ensued and many people got neg trust because of it as well.

There is no reason to follow up on what they are doing, I am not even talking about participating or buying or hold, I mean not even being aware of them and what they are doing because that is how shitty they are.
2678  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Terra can Wipe All (Crime) Records? | Kill Switch | Protocol Armageddon on: May 25, 2022, 12:58:21 AM
I have no idea if they will do that, because if they did, they should have done that with Terra one, the one that crashed, take all the money and hit the kill switch and run away with all of the money they had. Instead of trying to recover. What they will go down as will not be a scam, many people will call it a scam without realizing what happened because for many people everything they lose money on is a scam.

It could be a casino they gamble and lose and will call it a scam, it could be an exchange that gets hacked for real and it will be a scam, it could be anything and they will consider it a scam. Reality is, Luna is a terribly managed bad project they invested and lost money, that's it, no complex story behind it.
2679  Economy / Economics / Re: Countries with the most expensive fuel | Greece's case study on: May 24, 2022, 11:56:26 PM
I have to say it's all about politicians and how people elect the right people. Places near that east Europe block, do not have politicians that are decent, and using that indecent methods to keep staying in power. Greece may be seen as a place that has decent people, but their ruling parties has always been terrible and never managed the nation properly. Whereas people in Norway, Finland, Sweden and all of that has been shown as an example of how great a nation could be ruled.

The biggest power any citizen has is their vote, and unfortunately many nations have citizens voting for the "most powerful person" by their logic, not the one that will rule the nation best.
2680  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Euroleague 2021/22 Season on: May 24, 2022, 01:30:14 AM
I am shocked about the game score though. 58-57 right? That is one of the lowest scoring finals I have ever seen in a while. Even though I do not watch too many euroleague finals, I can say that scores are usually not that this low. Both teams tried their best to slow the game down as much as possible, like use the whole 24 seconds, and if you score then you score.

Compared to amazingly fast pace used both in NBA and also in most situations for euroleague, this game has been a big shock. Kudos to both managers for being ready for such a slow pace, it is not easy to keep giving half court sets at all times to get scores out of it. Specially the last 30 seconds or so was a big shock, without proper timing for fouls decided the game.
