1561  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which coin do you trust, BNB or ETH? on: June 26, 2020, 04:47:25 PM
I have always trusted ETH the most in all of coins, even more than I trust bitcoin actually. However this doesn't mean that I do not trust BNB neither. ETH is a coin that even though has a project team with Vitalik and the rest is actually quite decentralized, Vitalik could create the eth 2.0 with proof of staking and many more new things but as long as people do not use that blockchain and continue to use the old one there is no way eth would be changed, which means its semi-decentralized at the very least.

BNB on the other hand is ruled by Binance and even though I love and adore Binance both the company and the exchange and I think CZ is a cool guy, its still not a decentralized currency and still controlled by a centralized organization so I couldn't say it is better than ETH (still BNB is awesome too).
1562  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Binance deserves the first Position on CMC on: June 26, 2020, 03:08:09 PM
There is really a very simple way of proving if Binance deserves their spot or not. All exchanges should make their transactions transparent.

There are exchanges with 100 million dollar volume per day where you take a look at the liquidation levels and its close to zero. People basically sell and buy from themselves to make it look like there is a volume but when you go there and try to sell something there isn't much interest in buying from you.

So, that means if any exchange that is bothered with Binance being first rank on CMC they could just come up and say that they are actually the first and prove it, not really a big deal, its data and it could be checked and if they present a data that shows that they are bigger in any aspect than binance they would be able to ask for that position eventually.
1563  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How To Spot a Shitcoin? on: June 25, 2020, 07:09:31 PM
Honestly just act in reverse of justice department and you will be fine. Instead of "innocent until proven guilty" you should instead focus on "scam until proven legit" and you will be fine. I do not have any trouble spotting a shitcoin because I simply believe every single coin is a shitcoin until I decide to like it, that way I do not have to see if it is a shitcoin or not, because I already think it is a shitcoin to begin with.

There are like maybe 15 coins I think is not a shitcoin, just 15 and all other coins in existence is a shitcoin in my mind. Some of them could have a decent followers and decent prices and all of that but that doesn't mean that I have to like them, it is a personal thing and you can call even bitcoin a shitcoin if you want to, since it is personal nobody could tell you otherwise.
1564  Economy / Economics / Re: The Covid19 Curve is Flattening on: June 25, 2020, 06:19:11 PM
While rich countries can manage too long lockdown to flatten their curve of infections some 3rd world countries are struggling to lessen the cases as government weren't able to sustain peoples need and needs the economy to keep it going. We need to be extra careful until vaccine invented and need to adjust in today's new normal.
Firstly lockdown didn't even work out, because a lot of people never still stayed indoors, despite everything they were coming outside. I don't think that people are ready to stay indoors anymore. Even if there happens to be another spread (which I don't pray to happen) I don't think that people are ready to stay on lockdown, just like I have said at first. The best we can do is to wear masks and wash hands regularly, and try as much as possible to stay safe by maintaining distance and avoiding handshakes and things that can lead to being infected by the virus.

what will happened to the global economy if there is a spike in the spread of covid19 again ?
Already there are enough warning about possible second wave of covid19 as in recent times, there were sudden cases on Beijing but fortunately as most countries have not lifted restrictions on internal travelers, I guess there could be less chances for any spike in the spread of covid19 any more. It may keep going flatten and then will fall down.
1565  Economy / Economics / Re: India-China border tensions on: June 25, 2020, 05:48:30 PM
The way the two countries are facing each other on the China-India border is creating a tense atmosphere. If the conflict escalates, I think it will have an impact on international trade and cryptocurrency, what do you think?
I don’t really know what’s going on there, but I think whatever it is their governments should look for means to end it and not create more problems for the people, especially now that there is a pandemic. This is not time to be talking about any other thing and creating headaches for the people, when they should be putting their focus on how to stop the pandemic that is still spreading and killing people every day. And as for cryptocurrency, I don’t think this will have any effect on cryptocurrency.

The way I see crytpocurremcy markets, the only serious effect the market is going to face this year, we have already seen it and that’s with the Covid-19 outbreak. The price of bitcoin seems stronger even corona outbreak is not yet settling down. Hope, total crypto space to be going stronger incoming weeks as this is time for experiencing the consequences of third halving of bitcoin.
1566  Economy / Economics / Re: An interesting case of a widespread misconception on: June 25, 2020, 05:15:51 PM
A lot of posters on the forum love to come up with figures showing how much the dollar (the American dollar, obviously) has depreciated over time, like 1 dollar in 1913 was worth 1000 dollars today (or whatever), with the general idea being that "the grass was greener and the light brighter back in the day"

However, what these forum members forget to account for is the rise in wages during the same time span. And the irony is that wages in the US have been outperforming inflation since WWII, barring a few rather short periods. It basically means that people become wealthier over years despite a declining dollar
Yes, you made a good point here. I do see those that talks about the inflation but they never consider the point you have just made here now. The wages increased and that’s the truth. If you check how much those people then we’re making for the same jobs that we have today, you will see that the amount they are being paid is also small compared to what we are being today.

Imagine that you’re a cleaner, you might be getting paid 10k today, but if you check back in those days it’s possible that the people doing same work are being paid around 1k or less. And I think life then is similar to life we have now, and they were also complaining, it’s not like everyone was living huge.
1567  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: June 24, 2020, 07:59:56 PM
I don't get how anyone think that this is a bad deal for Juventus. Arthur is a young player who is quite talented, I could say he is as talented as Pjanic right now and he is still improving as well so he might get a lot better in the end. Barça however is getting an aging star, he is not going to be playing at Barcelona at all, he is going to be a bench player for sure and why they are doing this deal I don't know.

Even Juventus is taking a "risk" because if Arthur comes to Juventus and doesn't want to play and creates troubles that could be very risky for Juve, however that has nothing to do with Barcelona, they are still getting screwed in the deal by giving a young huge potential player for an aging star. This is a very "need to win right now" move by Barcelona's part but I do not see why they would need Pjanic for that.
1568  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: June 24, 2020, 04:18:44 PM
Gobert and Mitchell had asymptomatic corona virus as well and this was during the early days of lockdown, hell they even had it when NBA was still going on. At the end of the day 30th is still quite far away and teams will fly to Orlando eventually (some time before I am sure) and everyone will be tested and they will be quarantined and they will be given whatever they need and eventually when they all get out none of them will be sick, the ones that are already healthy will be able to stay away from the virus, and the ones who are infected will be recovered as well.

However players are allowed to sit out, there is plenty of players sitting out already and I think if Jokic says he is sitting out because of this, that means good bye to Denver and their whole chance of doing anything on the playoffs this year.
1569  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Interview with Stake.com CEO Reveals Plans for Tether Betting + New Games. on: June 24, 2020, 02:53:08 PM
Stake.com already has integrated 8 cryptocurrencies now with the addition of Tether it will have 9. Since Tether is a stable coin the actual earning will be pegged to the correct dollar value. Which is good as the dollar value never remains the same when you are betting with cryptocurrencies.
I actually don't think changing and adding more crypto adds as much value as much would adding new games and new bonuses will add but yeah having more currencies is always better and they also have an in-built exchange, I am talking about Dinabot which enables immediate exchange between coins at a small fees so yeah more coins means more fun.

This month with their bonus email they mentioned that they have plans beyond imagination and they have huge changes and updates in pipe and they want to keep that as secret and I hope adding new coins isn't the only feature they are planning because I heard a new slots might be coming soon so I am looking forward to more games and features than simply just more coins being supported.
1570  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Safe with bitcoin? on: June 23, 2020, 10:02:57 PM
In some cases I think people are going out because they can’t afford to stay home and face hunger, since they are not getting the support they need from the government they have got to go out and look for a way to support themselves.

Although I don’t really think we should blame the government in cases like this, because I don’t have any idea if they can take care of everyone. And apart from that the government still have to stop some of the restrictions to be able to save the economy. Even in my country there is no enough possibilities for spending bitcoins, I somehow manage by making use of few online services to get my life's need for bitcoin payments and this way that I must admit like I am safe with bitcoins for time being.
1571  Economy / Speculation / Re: Continue to Hold your bitcoin on: June 23, 2020, 08:26:40 PM
Well, this all depends on where you are with your bitcoin and with your fiat right now. If you have more fiat than bitcoin I would say keep your distance for now, you do not have to buy anything and just wait until the price goes down, if you buy right now you are either going to lose a lot of money or you are going to just make a tiny amount of profit and it doesn't really worth it.

However if you have a lot of bitcoin and not enough fiat I would say hold it, if you hold it you are going to make even more profit and you are going to be able to sell it whenever, I don't know where you bought them at but it has to be higher than right now so you have a bigger leeway to wait and see if you would be able to profit or not profit but still wouldn't be a big loss even if the price somehow drops further down.
1572  Economy / Gambling / Re: FreeBitco.in-$200 FreeBTC⭐Win Lambo🔥0.2BTC DailyJackpot🏆$32,500 Wager Contest on: June 23, 2020, 07:33:30 PM
The site is provably fair, you can verify each bet if you think its a scam. There is a huge difference between saying this site a scam and saying this site has a high house edge

Having a higher house edge compared to most dice site isnt a scam. Sure that you will be losing alot more but its definitely not a scam and you still have a chance to win*

*P.S : Provided that you are really lucky


Could you elaborate please? How it can be a scam while being provably fair?  Huh
If you're referring to the house edge, most of gambling games aren't free IRL. You must pay something to get the right to play or the game uses a house edge, then if you're lucky you'll win otherwise you'll lose your stake, that's it.

@arallmuus that’s an eagle eyed observation and his claims won’t work, because everyone who knows about Freebitco can swear that it’s a legit site. Furthermore I feel that he may have wagered on freebitco after ages, and he may have lost a good fortune out there, and hence he decided to come out here and rant like a upset gambler would do. Lastly in my personal opinion we should ignore his rantings unless he can back them up with proof, but I’m 100% sure he has no proof to back his false claims.

For sure he is disappointed for the result that he  takes nothing for the abused he do that's why he create a noise in this thread but apparently many  people knows on how good for now is this site so for proper validation on how they wreck about their claims maybe they need a strong support for  that matters  since many people will not  believe easily for just a single bad statement thrown unto this site
Also when you calculate everything that is given with the high house edge, the whole purpose of having high house edge shows why it is not actually that high. You are getting the free lottery tickets, you are getting the reward points, you are getting the lambo ticket as well, and also you are getting interest rate on the money you leave at the website as well.

Now combine all of this there is a chance you just lose all your money for a high house edge and leave that part is correct, but think about all the people who wagered but won the lottery, people who wagered and got the lambo, people who wagered but has enough reward points to claim a brand new iphone or whatever. So, yes the 5% house edge is too high and not needed for the people who lose, but to people who win its a marvel and a great blessing.
1573  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: June 23, 2020, 06:38:48 PM
Do not doubt Juventus and their talent to get a three point out of any game. Sure this is soccer and there is always a chance to lose points in any game, do not forget that Liverpool had an undefeated season for like 30 weeks or something and then lost to Watford 3-0 a team that has a hard time not to relegate to championship.

So, Juventus goes out there on the pitch every single game they play (hell on most champions league games as well) as the favorites and a team that could win every single game they play in the league, the times they lose are usually the times they just have either a bad luck or just do not feel perfectly fine. Bologna played as well as you can hope for them to play and at the end of the day Juventus was just the better team and the goal from Dybala was fantastic, like he never got sick and put that foot on the ball with pure power.
1574  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 NBA Season on: June 23, 2020, 05:25:32 PM
Look I am not saying Denver or Dallas is bad teams but you guys have to be dreaming if you think Dallas versus Denver west finals is even possible. I do not think neither of them will go to finals, these are some other level of teams that you are talking about. Los Angeles will be the finals for sure, as long as teams are healthy it will definitely be Lakers versus Clippers, and even in a case where it is not both of them, we have Utah and Rockets that are waiting to take that spot as well.

So, for Denver and Dallas to be at west finals you have to eliminate Lakers, eliminate clipplers, eliminate Utah and eliminate Rockets. You are expecting awfully a lot from one team that never been to playoffs together and another that is basically 2-3 years in playoff adventure versus teams with multiple championship fmvp players.

JollyGood I know you have been very helpful towards the community by warning everyone about the shady business' and that is a good thing, however this feels like an empty question. Dude is saying that his investment was getting lower and lower while the profit for the casino went up, which is clearly saying there is something wrong that causes them to lose money and that is very shady sounding thing and should be suspiciously looked at.

I do not really how he would suggest the website to anyone else, he would obviously tell everyone to stay away until this is fixed or there is an explanation. Even if they somehow say that there is a very good explanation for all of this and they roll it back and give everyone their money, you are free to think they were still trying to do something shady but didn't because they got caught.

Interesting comments. I noted you also had issues withdrawing your bankroll funds before the process was completed.

What was your overall opinion and experience of participating in business with this website and its team? Would you be able to recommend it to other investors or would you advise others to stay clear?

well not all site are same . on the other there are nice offer like when your already at a higher level you can earn bonuses without even doing anything . reaching a high level is still worth it if thats the case   . smaller levels still have rakebacks , i prefer to reach at least one level to enable those rakebacks so that everytime i gamble i can earn something   . here at bitvest they say you need to be atleast level 1 to be qualified on rain , and we know rains here are nice . this can be the goal for other users on why they want to level up .
It is not really a way to earn money obviously, it is just a way people share their happiness and I like it as well. I got it only once in my life, but that is good because I think having it only once is a way to see it is fair and it is for everyone and I did it get it so I know they are not just sharing it with one of their accounts to another of their accounts, they are actually do give away to people.

This is why I think it is crucial to get it at least once so you know they are legit. You might think bitvest is a cool place that wouldn't lie about these things but I have seen so many good places turn bad I just wanted to make sure and I did thanks to this. Now I am willing to never get it, people who actually do need it could get it and play with it who otherwise couldn't.
1577  Economy / Economics / Re: Saving economy at the cost of what? on: June 23, 2020, 01:59:02 PM
Money, power and the economy is more important than the lives of many, this is the sad reality of our lives.
I disagree. Because this is not the case of most developed countries. Only on some countries, due to improper governments and its laws, they are not caring about each and every individual's life. A true republic will definitely care about their citizen the most than anything else.

The risk of getting infected is much higher when you go outside and hangout with many people, well it is still your choice especially if the Democracy is too much and abused by one individual.
I do see many government has already started allowing their people to get back to working place so that they could save their economy. Now the responsibility of protecting against pandemic just shifted to individuals that it is supposed to be government's.

The rise of every economy on its costly way, this is the new normal so you have to be healthy to survive as well.
Rising your economy must be the secondary option for most governments right now because they are right now working on saving it from not deeply falling down. Yes, people must need to adopt the "new normal" to live in social life so that they could save their lives as well as their nation's economy.
1578  Economy / Economics / Re: Covid-19 effect on your country's economy!!! on: June 22, 2020, 08:32:01 PM
I am not going to lie I was one of those people who said this wasn't that big of a deal and it wouldn't really matter in few months as well. Boy was I wrong! However to defend myself we had other viruses before, the Sars the Ebola the Swine flue and stuff like that and honestly none of them hit my nation, we didn't had any of them, and even when they eventually reached here it wasn't that much, we had only 3 people die of Ebola in the entire nation for example.

So, I thought it would be something like that and nothing more. Of course now I know that it wasn't like that and thousands of people died and we are going outside with masks and we can't even be close to each other as well. So, I would have to say the best course of action is to take defenses on things even if you think it won't hit you.
1579  Economy / Economics / Re: Current Food Shortage and Economic Decline Caused by Pandemic on: June 22, 2020, 07:22:17 PM
I think that is starting to happen everywhere. Our borders are still closed and there is no way to import any food. Right now the government has plans to give out a no-interest loans to farmers in the country so that they can start growing food, lots of it. I can’t wait to see how that goes. And I’m constantly praying for the virus to be over, it has really affected things in the way that we can’t take it.

It is very difficult to live like this. And economy of most countries keeps falling, we have no other option than to just ease the lockdown and go back to our work. Fortunately I guess the agriculture related works on my country is not getting affected hence I guess there could be less chances for food production falls below the level of scarcity. Still, the food transport might get hit worst as transport related things might get delayed or cancelled which may trigger shortage of foods even in my country.
1580  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: THE ORDER OF ALT PUMPS?? on: June 22, 2020, 05:28:38 PM
Small and micro coins could pump without reasons at all. Im not sure that there could be the right order for pumps
I think so, it's quite difficult to predict which coin that will be pumped and whales have its own criteria for a coin that will get a pump. The news can be considered as an important factor to determine the coin that will be pumped too.
The things that already explained by OP never happened.
They are just mere imagination. That is why if people ordinary make predictions, it does not happen that way.
Sometimes, they also study the movement of whales and yet they fail in their predictions. Even whales give their strategies trials if it is going to work.
Yes, OP's assumption must be an imagination but I wish if there could be some pattern on altcoin pumping then I am sure I will catch all of them easily. Unlike we do dream no market is working in an expected pattern. But, all the markets are working with a reason and if we are skilled enough to find those reasons out, then we can easily make more money with pumps more easily.

Moreover a same set of inverters will not be interested on set of marketcap coins/tokens. So, there are very less chances for what OP mentioned to be happening. Unlike we do imagine not all institutional fund management groups are working together because one group may trap another hence they do prefer working independent. So, altcoin pumps to happen on marketcap wise got very less chances. Still I am going to follow to find out any pattern like OP mentioned and for any other pattern if possible so that I may make some extra money Wink.
