1201  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin can do 30k$ this month? on: March 27, 2023, 11:28:03 AM
Only 4 days to the end of March, and we're still at $28k, no positive news to get bitcoin moving. But I expect the remaining 4 days will have some positive news to help bitcoin reach $30k, otherwise, we will have to wait for it in April. I remain bullish on the market and believe bitcoin will continue to rise in the coming days.

And it means that we will not get closer to $30k this month because it's slowing down. But no worries, we will just have to wait (and believed), that $30k could be reached next month.

We are still in the crisis right now, and people are looking for assets to hold their wealth and bitcoin is the perfect definition of it. Although bitcoin will replace fiat might not happen, but still there are individuals who think otherwise that's why they are going to bitcoin. So yes, this is just another test for us, what lies ahead is the most important thing, look for long term prices specially in the next bull run.

Also, the promoters should rent Las Vegas Raiders' Allegiant stadium, have a big screen and let everyone pay $100 per person to watch the fight hehehe.
Well, that's a first if that indeed happens but they should swap the venue though because Allegiant Stadium can hold more people compared to T-Mobile Arena.

That's quite too much for him to say especially that he ain't got the WBA world title belt, or any of those existing belts that is now possessed by the undisputed champion, Devin Haney. And he's saying and comparing himself towards Canelo Alvarez? Grin Boy, I know you got talents but you still have a long way to go and that's for sure.

However, similar to what I have said, it can be argued that he might become the face of boxing if he wins this fight. The same argument can be created for Ryan Garcia. I also reckon that it would leave a bigger impression on the fans if Ryan Garcia is the winner. The occurrence might be compared to Muhamad Ali versus Sonny Liston where Ali was the underdog hehehe.

Either can be the face of boxing, because as far as drawing fans to their fights, it's easy for them, they have the charisma specially Ryan Garcia. For Tank Davis his trash talk and the way he demolished his opponents with highlight knockout.

Not sure if we can compare it to the great Muhammad Ali, they don't have any belts, either one of them, it's that they are the main draw in this division and not the champion in Haney.

I was only trying to make a argument of the type of storyline the sports news media might create if Ryan Garcia wins the fight. If he knocks out Tank with an unseen left hook it would certainly be written in the news as something similar to Muhammad Ali's phantom punch used against Sonny Liston hehehehe.

Ryan has the charisma and he appears to be well educated. Tank appears to be someone who is from the streets when you listen to him.

Fair enough, yeah it could be big as the Ali upset on Liston that time, and it seems that's where Ali has started his trash talking though and from what I read it was like over before the actual fight because they say that Liston is really affected on what is Ali is saying on the public against him. I mean the psyche war is already won by Ali already.

Not just that he look very educated + charisma. It maybe stem from him always praising God first during his win or when he is interviewed.

It seems that the kid is God fearing and that's where he got his strength.

The news of Damian Lillard ending the season made me a little sad. I don't want him to be injured at all, if he has a problem, it may be difficult for him next season. When such a good player deals with serious injuries, he cannot catch up with his old performance, and his age has started to progress.
Portland Trailblazers doesn't have much of a chance to be successful this year anymore. Therefore, the decision taken may be the right one
Damian Lillard is a millionaire player who has won seven NBA All-Stars and six All-NBA Team Selections.
In October 2021 Lillard was named the league's greatest player of all time.
Lillard also won a gold medal on the 2020 US Olympic team in Tokyo.
He has given a number of wins and became a core player on the Blazers team.
By deciding to end the season, the Blazers will lose strength and this will be a big loss for the Blazers because they will not have a great player like Lillard.
Maybe the Blazers have prepared another player to replace Lillard, but I'm not sure I can be as good as Lillard.
Injuries can happen to anyone including professional players like Lillard but let's hope he doesn't get hurt in the slightest.

Hey I'm a Dame fan but he isn't even in the top 10 players this year.  He isn't antlywhere near the top of the best players of all time.  He might not even be the best blazer of all time.  Clyde Drexler would give him a run.  But you are talking MJ, Lebron, kobe, bird, magic, wilt, so and and so on. 

Clyde or even a prime Walton (not the Bill Walton that the majority we have seen in 80's as a Celtics as he is already injury prone and in the tail end of his career), and Walton bring a championship to the Blazers organization. There could also be the case of Brandon Roy, but retired already at age 26 because of injuries as well.

Anyhow, yeah, just sad to see him go down again this season, it's like the Blazers are cursed with such good players but injuries slow them down or retire for good like the case of Greg Oden.
1204  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Casimero vs Nghitumbwa (May 3) on: March 26, 2023, 08:11:03 PM
Just announced a few hours ago that Johnriel Casimero will be fighting against an unknown opponent (at least to many) and his name is Fillipus Nghitumbwa. Per below boxing record, his resume is not impressive so i think this will be a walk in the park for Quadro Alas.

Yes, looking at this records, it's not that impressive.

This fight may not be so exciting to some users here but for us coming from the PH, Quadro Alas fighting in his country is a big thing as we seldom see him fight in the PH when he become a world champion.

Nghitumbwa for his part has not fought on foreign land and he got not much experience with only 13 fights but still hoping that he could give Casimero a competitive fight.

This could be the main reason why they pick Nghitumbwa in a very short notice. The fight will be in Casimero's backyard, so they have to find someone who Casimero can handle as a tune up fight and should not be a risk on him.

What do you guys think of this fight?

Casimero by a brutal knockout.
1205  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Caleb Plant vs David Benavidez on: March 26, 2023, 07:53:52 PM
Plant was starting to get cocky early in the fight. He started off great but once he felt David's power his strategy fell apart and he turned into a punching bag the entire second half of the fight. I'm impressed that it went the distance with the amount of punishment that Plant took. Benavidez is indeed a monster and this makes me much more interested in seeing him fight Canelo. He has earned that opportunity. That is a fight where either guy could win by knockout so it is going to have a lot more demand with boxing fans than Canelo against Ryder or a rematch against Bivol.

Power of David was really evident, those uppercuts, you can see Plant's head snap everytime that David will hit him. It's probably his pride that keep his standing specially in the second half of the fight.

Yeah, very impressive on how he handle himself, specially in the second half wherein he rally because he felt that he might be losing in the score card in the first fight. Let's hear it from Canelo after he defeats Ryder if he is willing to face another Mexican in Benavidez.
1206  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will the altcoin go up in price if the bitcoin price goes up? on: March 25, 2023, 09:51:38 PM
I have watched the market and the price of bitcoin is going up, and I think and also usually if bitcoin goes up then the altcoins usually go up in price, for example if btc goes up 3% then altcoins always go up in the range of 7%. but what I see this time is not like that, for example if btc goes up 7% then the altcoin goes up only 3%.
It will depend on which altcoins they are. Sometimes, when Bitcoin is going up, altcoins will fall down. But if Bitcoin price is falling down, altcoins will also be falling down. However, sometimes, if BTC is sideways, altcoins may have chances to rise up. But this scheme is also not permanent. Sometimes, when Bitcoin is stably rising up with very good news, altcoins will be also following to rise up. At least we can see most of the altcoins will be also doing so very well. In this case, we can see how long altcoins will be able to survive during this kind of market, will be able to follow up Bitcoin's increase or not.

Yeah, it's not always the case, what you have describe is the most possible scenario that we have seen in the market or Bitcoin/Altcoin relationship. But I guess the majority though is that when bitcoin is in a massive run, it trickle down to the most solid altcoins in the market, so they go up as well maybe the increased is huge as compare to bitcoin. But the point is that bitcoin is that influential to them, that a simply blip in the price will affect everyone. And it's only a small percentage that altcoin moved itself alone without the influence of bitcoin in the market, that rarely happen.
1207  Economy / Speculation / Re: Price guess for March on: March 25, 2023, 09:37:29 PM
Since the beginning of March bitcoin has experienced a significant increase in price where the price of bitcoin traded in the range of $27k- $28k. But right now the bitcoin price is still having a hard time breaking through the $30k area. However, while it is still difficult to climb into the $30k area, I don't think bitcoin price is likely to drop below $20k again.

Price had settled to $27k, so most likely this will be the price at the end of the year. Resistance is at $28k for now, sooner or later we are going to break that, but not this March. Of course if has been reached already many times, but it's not sustainable. So it's not like we break it and then we are ok with that. No, it should be a sustainable run, and in this case, it's aren't.

So for now it's could be another test for the bulls on how they are going to smash that barrier again.

Maybe the herds are just gathering for another run in March for $28k-$30k.
1208  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: March 25, 2023, 09:22:12 PM
If Benavidez beat Caleb, the super middleweight boxing will be more interesting because there is a chance that WBC might implement a mandatory title fight between Benavidez and Canelo.  I think Canelo will give in to the order and fight Benavidez.

Actually, that's really the goal of Benavidez as he stated in the interview, to somehow make Canelo accept the deal fighting him in the future. Regardless if Benavidez will have a hard time against Plant, as long as he wins, he will be eligible as a mandatory challenger for Canelo. No choice for Canelo but to accept it not unless he will still insist on his solid statement before that he won't fight fellow Mexicans unless it's really necessary.

Anyways, let's see first what will be the result of their respective upcoming fights and see what will be the post-result happenings after those.

Yes, Benavidez is already looking past Caleb and he says that they want Canelo next, and that Canelo is just hiding for an excuse not to fight another Mexican because he is going to beat Canelo Alvarez.

I don't think Canelo though is like avoiding him, it is just Benavidez at this point in his career hasn't beaten anyone to deserved a Canelo shot specially at the super middleweight wherein Canelo clean that division already. While Canelo seems to be looking to cement his legacy, Benavidez is climbing and looking for fight that will give him the biggest paycheck.

Embiid vs the Warriors was the reason why the 76ers could not win because they were very predictable. Although they dominated the paint, the Warriors' good ball movement allowed them to have a good run that became the turning point of the game. Additionally, credit should be given to Draymond Green's defense, as he was very effective and worked hard in that game.
That's the major difference between the Warriors and the 76ers - the Warriors effectively move the ball, while the 76ers heavily rely on their best player, probably due to the mismatch. You can see how the Warriors move the ball and always find an open man who has the license to take the shot.

As long as Curry is holding the ball, you can expect good things to happen.

Yep, the Sixers is very predictable with their offense, it will be Embiid holding the ball and trying to isolate himself against Green, Kuminga and Looney. While the Warriors move the ball and look for the open man.

Poole found his range and very effective for the first time since Curry went back in the lineup. Klay too has some moments when he find his rhythm.

Overall it's the Warriors strategy that gave them this big win against one of the best team from the East.
1210  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: March 25, 2023, 03:43:07 PM
And no, I may not be a fan of Canelo but I don't think that he's avoiding Benavidez. The kid is not eligible to fight him this much sooner because David doesn't have any interim belts and as Canelo said before, he should prove himself first that he truly deserves a chance to fight Canelo. Now if David can defeat Caleb with a bang, that is surely a ticket for David to fight Canelo.

Benavidez is the no. 1 in The Ring super middleweight champion ranking while John Rider as you stated is the WBO interim champion.  I disagree that Benavidez is not eligible to fight Canelo, if The Ring implements a mandatory title defense then probably Benavidez is the most legit to fight Alvarez.  Same way on John Rider being the WBO interim super middleweight champion.  Whether David Benavidez defeats Caleb with a bang or not, Benavidez is top in line to challenge Alvarez for The Ring Super middleweight championship fight.  But of course, if Benavidez losses against Caleb then,  Benavidez will be replaced by Caleb and the chance of Benavidez to fight Alvarez will be lessened.

In addition the WBC interim Super Middleweight Champion is Benavidez while The WBC World super middleweight Champion is Alvarez, if we apply your reason why John Rider has the right to fight, Alvarez i think that is the same with Benavidez for the WBC Super Middleweight world title belt.

Compared to John Ryder, David Benavidez is the better fighter, more popular, and more proven in the division. But nowadays politics played a big role in boxing. The huge amount of money involved became an important part of fighters, networks, and promoters' decisions. I am not saying Canelo is scared of Benavidez because he might deserve an easy fight after his injury. John Ryder may look easy to Canelo compared to the undefeated and dangerous Benavidez. Nonetheless, I have nothing in this fight and John Ryder might have earned his right to fight for a title after his huge upsets over Daniel Jacobs and Zach Parker. But we cannot question that David Benavidez deserves his shot at a championship belt rather than Ryder.

Styles make fights but Ryder lost already to a lot of fighters and some of them were not even championship-caliber type while Benavidez remained unbeaten and lost the WBC belt before because he was stripped.

Yes and Canelo could also dictate to the corrupt WBC who he wanted to fight next, in this case Ryder because he is not of a bigger threat as compare to the young Benavidez who also shows power. I don't think that Canelo or scared or it is the right term, but he needs to be very careful of his next fight because he is testing his hands first. So John Ryder is the best fit for that, not Mexican, but willing to travel to Mexico and face him. Good for Ryder though, in terms of experience and exposure and probably his biggest money to date as a boxer.

No need for Canelo Alvarez to make use of his affiliation towards the WBC or influence because he can always choose whom to fight because he is not yet due to any mandatory fight, but let's say that  he's due, then surely he will need to take advantage of his influence to pick a less-threat kind of boxer because of his current situation. But that's not the case this time, right? Hence why their camp chose John Ryder.

But that's how it is though, the head of WBC is Mexican and so is Canelo, so you can't discount the fact that they are giving them a lot of freebies or granting him extra entitlement. So admit it or not, there is some affiliation within their organization.

And there are mandatories that are not even followed by some boxers in WBC.

The only thing why John Ryder is an being pick because he is not a big threat to Canelo.
1211  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The future is looking good for P2e games on: March 24, 2023, 09:18:29 PM
Now I have no reason to believe that console gaming companies will let NFT and play to earn game pass by while they look and do nothing, I am sure that they are worried that play ri earn game could be the main focusing of gamers in the future, if new p2e games start offering gamers what they are been offered by console gaming companies it is over.
This is getting more interesting for play-to-earn games, it seems companies like SONY aren't ready to lose their gamers to blockchain gaming, if you believe that play to earn games aren't going to work out you are playing, and keep playing till things get serious.

I am a passionate pc gamer for many years now and as a gamer i am still not really sure what to think about NFT's and play 2 earn mechanics in a game. I have not seen a good game so far, that also had NFT's and a play 2 earn concept included and to be honest i think it is also very hard to create a game, that is fun to play for people that do not want to invest into it and that is also profitable for those "players" that are playing this game to earn money.
In order to be profitable to play i think that 90% of the playersbase need to paying those 10% of the players that are earning money and therefore the game needs to be fun to play or those 90% won't stay.

Yes, compare to pc games, P2E are way off, quality is not that good, mechanics. But let's see, if big names in the gaming industry will focus to at least developed their won P2E with the whole metaverse concept then who knows.

But for now, there's none, even Facebook who has been building a metaverse can't do it, how can the others do with just small budget.

So I don't see it being as big in the gaming industry, it will still be based on how much money players and the developers are going to earn, simply as that.

We just had a minor correction again, after bouncing back to almost as high as $28,400, price is now going down to $27,600.

Not sure what the reason, maybe we are exhausted buying bitcoin or we just hit a wall or there are news around that might affect the investors to push the sell button. And we are hoping that the price is going to break $30k or at least touch it. So we will have to wait what April is going to offer for us.

But yeah, March seems to be green and hoping for a recovery again to $28k because that seems to be our support or that's what we wanted to see.

Well, carrying out a brief analysis of what was mentioned, I also believe that the Lakers have a little hope to get a seed in these playoffs, but for that to happen they need to be impeccable in the next games, as this will be something decisive for them. ..

OKC, Timberwolves, Mavs and Jazz, these are the other teams that are in a similar situation to the Lakers, that is, it will be extremely close competition for any team to get the last remaining seeds for these playoffs.

That's the result now of the Lakers losing too many games in the early to mid-season.

Yeah, those games early in the season, when AD and Lebron was injured and WB, well not playing good as a Lakers and he has been the escape goat. So they are now trying to catch the last end of the playoffs or play in.

Aside from they really badly need to win their remaining games, they also need to depend on losing those teams above them.

If only they managed to get on a good track in their early games, they will still be in the close competition in the play-in but not in the status they are now currently that they need to depend on other teams losing their respective games just for Lakers to make a chance for a playoff spot.

They have 2 games that they could easily win. But they still have a good chance, although it might not be in their hands. All they can do is pray for those teams that they are juggling for position to lose their remaining games.

Back over months is reddish, I could hardly think about bitcoin as anything good soon but it seem like there will be positive green movement this mid of the year coming. Bitcoin can never be overrated sometimes it will destroys your feelings, sometimes it will bring excited, dudes, is been a while we reap the juicy part of bitcoin. 3 days now is looking greenish with improvement I hope the pump starts soon enough, this green looks real positive
After 3 days your thread was created, and the bitcoin price seems like a correction today, I hope you are still there, Don't panic and change your mind. Usually, when a newbie talks about optimism while prices are in positive green, he will be very scared and start thinking about selling the asset when the price dumping immediately like today. Are you okay?

We are back though, the price is again above $28k after a correction due to the Fed interest rate. But it was just short lived, and we love how the market reacted, goes down a bit and then investors doesn't care about that negative news anymore.

So yeah, the bulls is back in the market again, we have like 7 days to close March and everything is looking good.

We can only hope that $30k could still be reach at the end of the month. But again, if we are still in the bullish momentum then it will continue to grow in April.

So who do you guys think is the best team in the NBA right now? Much like college basketball and the current tournament going on, I feel like there is a great deal of parity inside the NBA.  I honestly can't say who I think has the best chance at winning it all this year, and normally it's pretty easy to at least make a couple guesses.  I guess the Phoenix Suns are one of those teams, perhaps the Milwaukee Bucks are another.  Then you've got the Celtics and teams like the 76'rs.

Really odd time in the NBA right now to be honest.  I love it though.

The balance has tip to the East right now, as you have said, Boston took the lead, and then Giannis and Bucks overtake them after the all start break. Now the Sixers is pushing as well and Joel Embiid cemented his case for the MVP race.

While on the West it's the Nuggets, but they seems to struggle in their last 10 games, Memphis? Nah, I don't think they have the guts to win with or without Ja Morant. Warriors is not the same team anymore, while Phoenix without KD can't make it to the Finals.
1218  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Errol Spence vs Keith Thurman on: March 23, 2023, 01:34:27 PM

Let's see about this one, I'm under the impression that this fight could easily be made since Crawford has no promotional ties and we have seen him and Oscar in public.
It's also a mandatory fight, so he'll have to accept the challenge, and I think there will be no problem with that even without the promoter since it's already mandatory.

So maybe he will accept this fight as compare to the Thurman vs Spence which might take some time to make as both are boxing diva and maybe wanted more money for that big fight.
it's a different to Crawford, I'm not sure what happen here but Thurman vs Spence should be an exciting fight to watch,  and when it comes to money matters, I guess Spence should be the one dictating the slice since he is the more popular fighter and a champion.

Just to be clear though, even if it is mandatory, these boxers may or may not follow the organization. There are a lot of instances already in the past, just like Spence fight, he should be fighting his mandatory but he was allowed to pick Thurman here.

It's always been money if the fight is going to be delayed, unless either one of them has back out of the fight and doesn't want it anymore. But I do agree that Spence should get the lion share here. Thurman is no longer the champion and has been out in the boxing, and his last win against Barrios in not that impressive.

I knew that something like that was going to happen, because there were to many issues already to organize that fight. Like always, it seems that it is all about money. I felt that Fury was planning to make this fight as a his last fight, so he wanted to get the biggest purse as possible. Also it looks like Fury isnt interested in boxing anymore. He has achieved a lot already. His last fight with Chisora is an indicator of my guess.

Yeah, in the beginning it was just the issue of the venue, but maybe when their Middle East contacts didn't agree with what they are asking, then Fury switch stands wanted more money and that starts the finger pointing about the contract, the purse split and other issues.

And even if they are being pushed by the boxing body, there's no clear path for this fight, all they have is a date that's it.

As the fight date gets closer and still there are no negotiations except in media, then all signs point that this fight is really on jeopardy.

Good for you if you have made profits already when the price hits $28k because it seems that we have a correction already. And so it's true, we never know the price movement. We were all hinting that the price might go to $30k for this month as this is our goal.

But when the FEDs seems to released their numbers and it's not very positive, the market reacted obviously.

However, we are still very good above $27k and I wouldn't be surprised to see the price going back to $28k++ again.

Good luck though in your goal to open a business with the profits that you are going to make in this run.
