1381  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How Early Is It Now, For Those Who Missed Bitcoin In Its Early Days? on: October 30, 2022, 11:43:01 PM
This thought is based on an experience I had with my brother yesterday, he is just joining the space, he has some money which he wished to invest in crypto, I adviced him to buy bitcoin for now, but after looking at the current price of bitcoin and comparing it to some other altcoins, and also that his money can only afford him about BTC0.07, he refused and said he would rather invest in an altcoin that it's  price is still below a dollar

I had the same problem when I first heard of Bitcoin. And I wasted 1.5 years mostly with worthless altcoins.
I was lucky and the period I've wasted matched a bear market. But will your brother be this lucky? I doubt it. 1.5 years is already after next halving.

So you better convince him to DCA instead of wasting his money in coins that now worth 1$ and in 2 years they'll worth less than 1 cent. He doesn't have to buy 1BTC, nor 0.07BTC. He can start with even 0.007BTC or less; let him start much smaller until he gets comfortable with all this. Just make sure he doesn't waste too much with various exchanges' withdrawal fees (since it can be very disappointing at small amounts).
Just tell your brother that if he wants to be a millionaire, then he should always ready to take the risk and not afraid to buy bitcoin even at its higher price. Bitcoin may be costly, but when it comes to profit making, it will also give us the huge returns more than any coins can made. Suggest him to do DCA with bitcoin, if he can’t do that, I guess he’s not destined to become a millionaire when halving finally happens.
Making yourself a millionaire or targeting out to be the one then you would be needing huge money for you to invest on and lets say you would be putting all in bitcoin then gradual buys on thousands amount

will be ideal or something realistic rather than buying yourself on hundreds and the accumulate but those amounts wont be enough for you to make a millionaire even bitcoins price would fly up so high.

Lets just make out some calculations yet 3x-10x on bitcoins price as of this current value would really be hard to consider out but since we dont know on what the future
holds or does have then it would matter on how much risks you could really put in.

^
Its still considered as a trading and we do really have that binary options trading but i do consider it as a gambling.It do look like scalping but on a very active manner since this would be talking a minute

or seconds trading which we know that there's no strategy that you could really be able to apply on a short time duration which is something that not suggested for someone to deal off with.

On the thing where people do have thoughts on making trades directly is that they do believe that they could make easy money with it but once reality
do slap into your face then you would definitely be able to realize on whats the true experience when doing up trades.
1383  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling house responisbilty to protect people data on: October 30, 2022, 08:54:18 PM
Sometimes the bettors do the publicity themselves making show of their wins around their neighbourhood. Generally a responsible and well reputable gambling house will hide the identity of their winners especially when it involves huge amount, making it public will endanger the life of the winner.  this where bettors need to read ToS before visiting a gambling site
They don't have to do that because it's on their TOS and they'll be the ones voluntarily going to choose whether they want to be exposed as a huge winner or not.
But it's a good idea that the casino may want to contact the winner as they'll just want to gain exposure with such wins. However, even if the winner doesn't want to get involved, they will make promotional materials showing that they've got someone on their platform won such amounts.
It would be just fine if they would really be showcasing that huge win from a player who do play into their platform which do able to hit and win big but the user had been identified which i do see for it to be ethical

for casinos on doing so or they should really be asking out on that certain user but if these things are stated on sites terms and conditions then as a user then you cant really make out some complaints in regarding to that.
When it comes to privacy then it should really be just right that users identity shouldnt really be that known or would be exposed but there are some who do really
been announced just for marketing purposes and boast up that win to make or create some hype.
1384  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why there is so much resistance at $23k price on: October 30, 2022, 07:57:28 PM


Investing is something that you do with the money you have, not the one you get from others. I mean I am not even supportive of borrowing from friends to do it, even though they won't be able to come get your stuff like banks if you do not pay, it would be something that would be risky for you in the long run.

I personally prefer to put your money into bitcoin up front, I have been doing that for years and it worked out well enough too, just keep on investing and force yourself. At the end of the day I won't become like Elon Musk rich, nor even a millionaire let alone anything else, so if I save good enough money, I buy some stuff, latest was a great deal importance to me, personally something I wanted for a decade, I cried when I bought it, and thats why bitcoin is so special to me, because it allows me to save, make profit and then buy things I always wanted.
This is why we do really make savings because we do really like or love to buy up something that we havent been able to buy before thats why it do really create that kind of hope and of course you should really

be that mindful on what actions should be made so that you would really be able to achieve but of course you would be needing up to risks up something for you to attain and you should bare it up when it comes
to risk because its not something that you could really make assurances in speaking of sucess.

Borrowed money for investing up on crypto isnt something suggested and with its volatility and unpredictability then its not that something you could really assure on earning on a specific time.
1385  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will the value of SANTOS token increase? on: October 28, 2022, 07:36:15 PM
Do you think the value of Santos token will increase? Since Santos is constantly listed on reputable centralized exchanges such as Binance, Gate, MEXC… it is undeniably affirming its position in the community. But after all, Fan Token is just a lottery coin created for the purpose of attracting cash flow into the market. So perhaps Santos token just serves as a refreshment for this crypto winter. If you decide to participate in Fan Token investment, then start with small capital and accept that it is possible to lose. Remember to have a plan for your investments before entering. Good luck!!!  Wink
They are able to reach that good exchanges but of course it's not guaranteed that it will rise because of that, SANTOS token this to continue to update as well and with that I believe it's more chance for this token to make a new ATH again once the whole market enters into a bull market. There's a good volume for this token and that could be a good indication that there's a demand for this token. Do some research first before you invest, know it's purpose and it's market.
This is for all projects out there which they do really have the chance on getting their prices go to the rooftop but of course, it would really be depending or varying on some factors which could really be putting them

up on such condition which is DEMAND, RECOGNITION simply in the market.No matter how shitty it is, as long it would be hyped or been bought by people or investor then it would be having the chance.

Come to mind that there are some good potential projects but ending up on having no support or having low value? Why? Because they do lack up into those factors
that i had mentioned above. When you do believe that Santos token does have the potential then go ahead and invest.
1386  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The High Rollers and The Plebs - Who Wins The Most? on: October 27, 2022, 11:24:55 PM

What does this tell you?
Does this mean that the higher the amount we wager at a go, the higher the chance of ending up profit at the end of the day?
Or do you think it is all based on luck?, that is to say that the account with $5 on it wasnt just lucky today and thereby was unable to make any profit no matter how small?

What do you think about this ?


There's no difference and since we do talk about luck based type of game then we could eventually say that $100 buck capital account is just really that lucky on that time.

Overall its not really that precise to say that the bigger capital you do have the higher chance of winning.Its a wrong mindset or belief to put it up into your mind and keep pushing yourself

that you would really be needing to have bigger bankroll for you to win.You would really be proving out and realize into yourself thats not how gambling works.
Luck would be always the major deciding factor which would always affect out the outcome.
1387  Economy / Economics / Re: Reasons you will remain broke as an adult on: October 27, 2022, 10:26:35 PM
Many people take time for granted,  they don't really value their time. What we do with our time will always speak for us in life. The time we put into our careers is very important. Successful men we see in the world made in life because they gave value to their time. Time wasting will never bring anything profitable.

Utilizing time to the maximum is the key to success in the future, when young then the best thing is to continue to invest and find a productive source of income, and most young people today only waste time with unproductive activities so that when they are old they become difficult.
They won't be minding out because they are really that still depending into their parents which it would be normal that you would really be having that kind of confidence which you don't be thinking into those investment concern until the time comes where you do need to be independent on your own and this is where realization do comes from.

As early as you can or the younger you are,then you should really obliged yourself on finding various sources or income which it could really give out advantage compared to those who doesn't really care on that regard.
1388  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Crypto agents on the increase on: October 27, 2022, 08:47:50 PM
What will you like to add  to this?

Never invest on someone that will promise a huge return.

Crypto investment schemes has becoming more rampant again in our country. I always see a lot of post on social media that offers an investment table where you can earn as much as 30% monthly of your investment. A profit like that is too big and very suspicious since they also say that the source of money comes from crypto trading. Cryptocurrencies are very volatole that it's difficult to make profit from it consistently. Investors that are not well educated yet about crypto are easily blinded because the promoters use the historical increase of bitcoin.
Never ever make yourself believe into those easy money or easy profits because it doesnt really work on that way.There's no way that you could make money on the easy way.

Anyone who do promises out on having these things then better avoid or ignore.You would definitely get scammed or would be completely be fooled and if you do make yourself believe just because you are greedy
then for sure you would really be that be losing money.
Lots of scammers and fraudsters do really take advantage of peoples greediness and this is the result on why lots had been scammed due to that mistake or error.
1389  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Countries that are Legal and Illegal in gambling on: October 27, 2022, 11:02:53 AM
Surprised to see there is no Indonesia in the list of countries where gambling is illegal. Is this even a valid source to read? It is also an old article (4 years old) and maybe there have been many update related to the law in some countries related to gambling. Cant you find the most updated list or a better source to tell us about the main topic in your thread?
Not all source links could really be that precise nor that updated which it isnt surprising that there would be lacking of those who are on the list but at least it did really give out some idea on which countries had

banned or allowed gambling even though it might not be that precise.In overall, there would really be countries which would really be that open or neutral or definitely be that prohibited due to some factors,

neither it would really be depending on religion aspect or totally that government decisions towards gambling which they dont really like for its citizens on being engage on it.
We know that there are some parts of the world that do really run off gambling as their major source of revenue or tax.
1390  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: No Alternative to Bitcoin, Your Alternative is Bitcoin. on: October 26, 2022, 11:29:12 PM
Why still hesitating about bitcoin when others were jubilating for it adoption in making difference, i have three facts to make you change your decision and start investing with this period while it is still on the bear mode just for you to set in for an opportunity.
Apart from newbies and others who are not in this forum I doubt that anyone who has really spent time here doesn't know the importance of bitcoins. In trying to be more involved in the community to learn more is why most of us have found ourselves in this forum. A good topic but I think you need to focus more of your energy and most likely share this topic to people who you know are still skeptical and have no idea about the importance of bitcoins and how there are no alternatives to it even if one decides to hold another coin in addition, bitcoin is a must-have. 
Most newbies do able to know bitcoin just because of those hyips and ponzi's around it would really be that normal that they would really be getting interested into it and later on when they had lost money then

this is where curiosity do works on and they would soon find out and learn the real things that we do have on this market.Once you do realize on whats its usage then you would truly appreciate it.

If you do know on how to spend up your money and time wisely then you could eventually take advantage and make profits and also we could make use of its utility
which does really give out big convenience when it comes to payment system.
1391  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Does new projects succeed in bear on: October 26, 2022, 10:22:02 PM
I don't mostly pay attention those bounty's that are paying with their token and i don't join any manager who is not trusted and reliable, so i only select those bounty's paid in Busd, Usdt.
Many bounty participants prioritize USDT or BUSD stable token payment bounties because of the guarantee factor for getting paid even though it is lower than the profit from token payments from potential projects, but because it is very difficult to find bounties from potential projects at this time, bounty hunters are very focused on paid bounties for USDT or BUSD because the distribution is guaranteed from the bounty manager escrow wallet.
But finding projects which do pay up stable coins or established crypto coins in the market isnt something that you could find it easily.Most of them will really be paying out their own tokens this is why its a personal

choice whether you would really be taking a risk on joining them or would really be continuing to find better ones.I dont know if bounty hunting is still sensible to do nowadays considering its bear plus having

lots of projects and scam that we do have today which its really that hard to find a good one.This is why its really a risk taking whenever you do decide to deal up with bounties.
New projects launch on bear markets? I dont think that it would be that ideal.
1392  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will This Habit Lead You To Chase Your Losses And Addictive To Gambling on: October 26, 2022, 09:31:15 PM
Do you think it's unhealthy to always post your winnings on social media and forums because this habit will lead you to chase your losses and bet more so you can post your winning, I find this habit forming and this is bad especially if people are following you and always looking forward to your winning posts.
I must be honest with you, i think this on a higher percentage depends on the individual, i for my self know that i can never chase loses for the sole purpose of have some winnings to show to my followers, i understand there are people who would go out of their way to please their followers, that is, giving them something to talk about always.
I know of someone in my area who posts fake winnings on his twitter are Instagram page, if for like two or three days he's not been able to secure any win, he will use the photoshop tool to edit his previous winnings just to have something to share with his followers, i honestly would not advice any one to go after their loses all in the name of trying to have something to share with their followers, in this process, they can end up loosing even more money.
There are people who do really love on getting praised by the people around or on social media which it do really satisfied him/her.This is why we do see that some do really eager on playing just to have some

show off into their profiles and be praised which they do really like to hear out.Some doesnt care and some do really matters, this is why it do raises up some question on why the hell they would really be doing
that which they do know that they could really be having huge losses if they do keep on playing and chasing wins?

This is indeed a habit and if you dont have that good self control and discipline then you would definitely be putting yourself into problems.
1393  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price with a 4 year cycle? on: October 25, 2022, 11:03:31 PM
by the way, about the 4 year cycle of Bitcoin it just happened by chance or it was planned by certain organizations so that they could schedule when to get bigger profits, as we know the price of Bitcoin can be easily manipulated by a group of people or an organization
If I take it personally, I think it happened by chance because at any given moment the big investors as well as the owners of well-known companies were making huge purchases. So it gives a lot of increasing effect on Bitcoin and that is a very reasonable thing in my opinion than having to accuse a group of people or organizations of trying to manipulate the price of Bitcoin. Because without an increase in the number of purchases in the market, it is clear that it will be difficult to increase the price of Bitcoin itself at any given time.
Purchases made wont really be that focusing on those fewer entities.Yes, they might that bring up some significant effect on price movement but having manipulative actions cant really be done easily considering

on how huge the cap is then it would really be that impossible on giving huge price movement.Speaking about cycles then it cant really be avoided for people to say that there would be some price increase specially

on halving times but well its not always been assured since no one could precisely predict on what would be the things could happen in future.It all matters with recognition and adoption
or simply with the community demand plus those other factors which would affect the market entirely.
1394  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: We are group of long experinced traders try our Free signals on: October 25, 2022, 10:10:29 PM
All right Im bear but i see your coin is going up.
Well doge moving now... If it can really hit 0.070 AS you said i Will join your channel and waiting for next signal.

I dont do long trading usually but i'll follow only your signals If i have to do LONG trading.
Always set out good risk management and testing out someones claims isnt really that bad but of course dont put huge funds or amounts on it because it would really be giving a  total fucked up if things goes bad.

Its good that there are ones who do offer free signals but you should really stick into your mind that no man on this world would able to predict on what are the future prices.

Always trade up with cautions and never always rely on those signals from others if you could eventually make on your own.You should always mind on how to make
yourself able to sustain into this unpredictable market.
1395  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If you win big in casino, would it be publicized? on: October 25, 2022, 09:39:29 PM
I have not paid attention much to people winning on gambling sites. I do not mean people that just win, but people that win big like over $10000 or more. All I have known is that people that won so big are publicized and people know them from there.

That is dangerous, it means no privacy and people that are known to the public can be the victim of robbers and there can be physical attacks from robbers in order to steal from the winner. That is not all, even if there is no physical threat, people like me and some other people on this forum can be afraid, feeling unsafe of attacks.

I do not expect gambling sites to be publicising this kind of news. Will gambling site ask for the permission of the winner for the winning to go public? Or the winner can just be anonymous in a way his name will not be mentioned?
I have seen that many times but all I know is that they gambling site or company always try as much to make sure that the identify of the winner is keep anonymous if possible. This is a method many gambling sites are using to attract other gamblers to see good reasons to start using there platform and this alone will give other gamblers the confidence to gamble and bet more with bigger funds. All this are strong strategies that do attract more gambler to a casino but many persons might not know how it works.
Depends on a certain platform but if we do look around or speaking about those typical lottery games that we do have specially that government-owned or something in correlate then players had win up the

jackpot isnt really be that introduced which it would really be just a careless part or dumb thing  that they would be exposing off winners identity.It is a casual thing to be done even on online

lotteries or draws that we do have in the market today.It would be just a standard thing on protect that winners identity because we know the risk when someone
hits a huge sum of money.
1396  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I made a mistake shorting BTC at 17k on: October 25, 2022, 09:10:48 PM
The OP did not write how much BTC he sold (which is not too important), but at first it seemed to me that it was a larger amount - because even if it was 1 BTC, the difference between $18k and the current price is only slightly more than $1000 - which in some smaller amounts is not a loss worth mentioning.

Yes, you are correct. Even if a mistake was made, which is what the OP claims, I do not see why that would be such a big deal. I guess I'm just not convinced that a mistake was made. There is no way to know for sure, of course, but there is also no reason to assume that this is anything more than a simple case of nonsense talk.

OP, if you really sold at $18k, and you think it was a mistake, then why not buy back and correct that mistake? Anyway, good luck with whatever you choose to do!

When it comes on dealing up with speculative market then i dont really see nor precise to have a reason on calling it a mistake.Of course we do really have our own speculation and analysis towards this market.

We would really be ending up on different decisions and steps to be made basing up on what we had analyze.Its never been surprising about these sudden price increase.
Although it is really just a small bump in price in the market but you could really have those thoughts that you had made a bad decision.

Its not too late on making up some purchase now but of course it cant be avoided that we would be thinking about the lowest price as possible.
1397  Economy / Economics / Re: MONEY IS THE MOTIVATING FACTOR, what do you think? on: October 24, 2022, 11:26:59 PM
Money is always good. In our everyday life their are things we should have done to get more money but because of the lack of money it is not just possible to achieve it. Money genates more money to people who are financially alright. Money is always important and always plays good roles.
Some people do say that money cant buy everything which is true but since the beginning of life or the time we do stand on our own then we do know on how important on having the money.
We cant survive nor do things if we do lack money.

Its not bad on making money as a motivating factor as long you dont forget on balancing everything not only focusing on money making but also into other priorities as well.

Dont make yourself get blinded with greed as these things would really be resulting into bad decisions which you would really be make you look like a fool.
We do strive on day to day living or survival but we should make balance on everything.
1398  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do You Want KYC at Crypto Casinos During Registration? on: October 24, 2022, 09:42:53 PM
If I have to do KYC without being able to skip it, then I prefer not to register, because this really disturbs my comfort, I have more respect for sites that don't require KYC, we know that there are online casino sites that don't require KYC, and provide bonus if doing kyc, then i prefer that.
It will depend on what site we are doing our kyc. It is okay if it’s a established casino already and proven to be operated legally and somehow requires KYC to keep their business registration nut jf its too new then probably will not do it even they offer bonuses. Some known casinos only requires KYC when you reached certain amount to withdraw or in their set value. So others who simply just want to play will be able to play without worrying to di KYC.
You would really be making some reconsiderations if you are old player on a site whenever they do make out some changes for all players need to submit some KYc which you could somewhat assure that you

do trust up a particular platform and not a new one which do directly make out some ask of documents or verification which is something that we dont really like on the first place.

For a new gambling site and then ask out some kyc then 100% majority of people  would really be ignoring or skipping these sites.We do have lots of options and
choices in todays market.We cant just risk up on something new and directly ask out verifications.
1399  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: The future of Axie Infinity on: October 24, 2022, 08:44:35 PM
!
There are really people whom do really still hope for some miracle when it comes to their negative investment which they do still have those perceptions and beliefs that there might be some change of trend and

interest and just been said that if they arent really finding those ways on how to improve the game or giving back the essence of an earn to play game then they wont really be still getting chance of recovery.



Well can't blame them to hope because Axie team also do some updates on the game which make more people hope again that the price of their token rise. We cannot say it will not happen again since if they are consistent to do more updates it will happen.

And its just many people now cannot afford to spend more on it because they are worried about its future and like me as I said I will not put any more there anymore since I don't want to hope again for another time.


Looking around on the marketplace then axies price arent really that expensive compared into those hype or peak days where axies do cost more that $1000 as far as i remember or even more.

Now they are cheap but i cant blame out people not to buy despite of being cheap because they arent seeing some future of this project.Its understandable that we are on a bear market but the team
are still consistently trying to upgrade and make updates which is a solid indication that they are really that dedicated.

So its up to someones preference and risk taking if they would still support or not.

Another technical analysis chart. Many times, they were never true for cryptocurrencies. Maybe once you have traded long enough in cryptocurrencies, you'll realize it's very unpredictable and unless the same thing happens twice (never) your chart is meaningless. Right now, unless good data and benchmarks for the economics and stock come out, there will be no bull here or anything near it. People can't pump your bag when they even tighten their wallets even on daily necessities thanks to inflation and the energy crisis.
They are not accurate 100 percent but despite of it many crypto traders still rely on them. For them it is better than predicting randomly and I think there are times where their analysis are close to their target and this makes them happy and motivated to analyze again.

Experienced traders are actually the ones who used TA's while new traders can just trade the basic way without doing any complicated analysis. I think once the economy and the stock market normalizes, the bear will still be here and it can last for another 2 or more year. That is what the majority is saying but at least we are going to feel some great relief. That's better than nothing.
It do always matter like a hit or miss when we do make out predictions which is really that a common thing for someone to be making which those errors or mistakes would be entirely be wiped out whenever you do

able to make a speculation which it did really happen or nearly missed which you would really be making yourself believe that you are doing pretty well.On this very speculative market then it would really be just

a hit or miss.Lets do continue on making speculations and its better rather than on having pure guess with your trading decisions.It might not be giving best results or outcome most of the time
but at least we have done our part.
