LeBron James is the oldest player to record 3 consecutive games with 30+ points since Michael Jordan (2002).

Okay I get it, but isn't that so significant? Actually, fans would appreciate or notice it if the Lakers are winning. Nowadays, it's easy to drop 30+ points compared in the past, and since Lebron's team are struggling, so that's what people sees more, not his personal achievement on stats.

1. The obvious ones which are almost always hyped: BTC, ETH, BNB, Doge, Matic and ADA. We all know about them, so let's focus mostly on the others.
2. Polkadot (DOT)
3. ApeCoin (APE)
4. Dash 2 Trade (D2T): This one's not still in exchanges, but supposedly it's a strong crypto platform, and hyped.
5. The Graph (GRT)
6. NEAR Protocol (NEAR)
7. Decentraland (MANA)

So which one of them do you think will perform better in future? If you have any opinion for (or against) anyone of those, I'll be glad to hear it.

NEAR and MANA are getting active now, many speculations arise that these projects will show interesting growth once the market recovers. If we do research on the internet, all we can see is always positive. Though we have no clue among these hyped coins to survive the huge drop, may choosing any of them is very risky. But I don't think it was a wrong idea of putting a few bucks into any of them as long as you can accept losses. So, its up to us to take the risk or just choose Bitcoin.

The current price of Bitcoin is hovering around $18000. Just pumped a bit today. Bitcoin price has been using $1700 as support for the past few days.
Could the price of Bitcoin fall further?
What do you think about this?

the bottom price will likely still occur later in 2023 when the recession continues. but we all can't predict at what price bitcoin will drop in price for a deeper or only a few %.
some people are too busy thinking and predicting bitcoin prices without starting to buy little by little for fear of a bottom price. if we are aware from today including a lower price compared to the previous ATH price and our opportunity to buy and collect for the long term waiting for the bulls to arrive.
I'm not suggesting or forcing anyone to buy now, but it's better to start now than never and be late to the ATH party

Long-term investors are seldom to make predictions but just rather wait for the right time to sell their Bitcoin. We can't expect this bear season will end up to fast, and the bottom price may come unexpectedly but I think, we don't need to bother and stress ourselves waiting for that. Because the more we think about it the more our emotions got influenced. But I think 2023 is somewhat of a good year in crypto, recoveries may be started, and ready for the halving.

Well, it’s everyone’s choice either to entrust their seed phrase to their husband or wife, or they have to deal it on their own for more security purposes. But either way, security is not assured if one is to act careless and is not responsible of keeping safe his seed phrase. The reason why keeping a seed phrase needs a responsible owner, one that will not expose it nor share it to his love ones, but keep it completely on his own self alone.

I do also have that kind of mindset on which it is much more better if im the one who do keep those privatekeys for the best rather than on letting my wife do know about it and store for herself and i cant really just

make myself that confident nor getting relaxed on this situation which i do know that there are possibilities or probabilities of getting hacked due to improper handling out of those PK's.
Im not making myself that too selfish or hiding up some secrets but it would really be better this way. They are still the ones who do benefit out
with these things or crypto savings since from the start.

It is also important to consider the risk of telling our husband/wife if they really can be trusted and can manage to keep it secrete as we don't want to compromise the security of our funds. Because a single mistake can never be back again.
Maybe the best thing to do first is to educate them and gives some overview about the risk of losing our keys and passwords. We should emphasize to them how important it was otherwise, both of us will suffer the consequences. If we can see that our partner fully understands about it, I guess that was the perfect time to tell and show him/her all the credentials we have.

Ja Morant though, now becoming so brandish, but as you can see, they haven't proven anything yet and now he says in an interview that he is "fine" in the West, LMAO. They shouldn't talk trash when they can't back it up specially against the depending champion.

He is good because of his athleticism but he does not have the championship DNA like Curry and Thompson. He is still young though, there's plenty of time for him to prove that he should belong to the greatest players in the NBA once he retires, and until that time will happen, maybe he should not take too much, instead, do it in action and help improve his team, not himself alone.

Klay reserving one of his best game for Christmas against Memphis, hehehe.

Yes, because these two have a rivalry, they had a decent playoff series last season, maybe if Morant wasn't injured, the outcome could be different.

Perhaps, crypto signals had come free at first but later on, they will collect some money in exchange for their (fake) signals.

I'm not sure if you are here just to spread that website OP, I hope you will not cause you will just fail to get our trust. If I were, stop looking for trading signals but instead, continue mining and enjoy it or/ do trading by having your own signals and analysis. In fact, you are right many people give their crypto signals and they all are wrong. You can never expect something will change as it even go worse now.

And we know how powerful playing in homecourt, and the cheers of the crowd is. Anyway, I think that talent-wise, Ginebra and Dragons are not that far apart. If the crowd can boost the confidence of Ginebra in the game, it will be an even match.

Wait, what are you saying? you think that Bay Area is the favorite to win and Ginebra needs the crowd to win? man, sorry but I disagree with you, I think Ginebra has the upper hard, remember the last time they met? Ginebra won by a huge margine, same import, so I don't see anything new from them against Ginebra.

The top coins are only meant as a basis for where you should start your research on altcoins imo. It was never a guaranteed option until you've furthered your study in their markets. A lot of altcoins out there are sht, it wouldn't be exaggerated to say 99% of them are, but there are some good ones that pop out every now and then (although some just fall off and never be heard of from again), but nevertheless, they're good investments in that certain period of time.

A choice of altcoins from the top is certainly a good decision. Even though we can say it never gives us assurance, however, if we think about recovery, we can tell that they are possible to have it than those on the bottom. I couldn't agree that 99% are shitcoins, maybe at least 95% sounds realistic. Many projects actually have a good market intention but because of a lack of support and investors, they'll turn down and believe to be scams as the developer left for no chance to uplift their status.

There is no specific thing forcing me to sell Bitcoin until now (and hopefully never), because I still have a main job besides Bitcoin world.

Perhaps, you have a reason to hold and never touch your Bitcoin if possible as you have other sources of income. For those who have not and just relying solely on their crypto investment, in times of emergencies they have no option but to sell their holdings.
Basically, the reason why many people come here is to earn money in order to support their needs and other finances. In fact, investing is not all about holdings forever, there are times that we need so sell them whether it was for emergencies or for another investment.

I do love the engagement I'm getting so far on this thread and I'm happy seeing alot of people making meaningful contributions to a topic and also helping solve problems.

I also realized that one if the major reasons people shouldn't relate demo account to real account is the much expectations attactched to trading real account with real money.
To further explain this, most people after practicing on a demo account, move straight to real account with all the hopes of making millions or possibly making twice their capital and when that fails, they start revenge trading and end up blowing their account.

Unfortunately, many traders failed because of their ambitious thinking like earning money too fast by putting in huge capital. They neglect to see the risk as what is in their mind is to become millionaires in what they see and hear from social media. A person who thinks like this will easily get slip and lose hope.
The expectation is different from reality. Many people had think that trading could give them a better life but never know this will give them pressure and stress.

That was an intense game, if CJ's 3 point shot went in, things could be different and we might see a game 5 for this series.

Prior to CJ Perez's attempt to snatch a win, there are lots of open shots on SMB that they didn't manage to went in especially those missed free throws of their import Scott although overall he has a great performance in that game. Also, that wide-open 3-point shot attempt by Marcio Lassiter courtesy of Fajardo's rebound also missed.

The whole 4th quarter is intense and both teams are changing leads. But damn Dragons they are really dangerous in a 3-point area that even contested and defended well, they can still shoot the ball. Kobe Lam is insane and has shot shooting in the rainbow area.

I'm open for local betting in the Finals and will side with Ginebra. But is there anyone who will bet for Dragons here?

If only other teams except Ginebra will face the Dragons, I will pick Dragons instead. Cheesy

It's the 3 point shooting of Bay Area that save them against SMB. If only SMB has some good outside shooters, things could be different as they control the inside which makes them unpredictable. Unfortunately, only CJ is doing his job, he seemed to be the import of the team as he is the most productive player in that game.

There is no hype and there is no push from the Influencers. This keeps the dogecoin market stable without much of bullish move. Expectations over dogecoin won't end with success all the time. Right now it is time to hold, if not the better option is to move the funds towards somthing on the top list to experience the return at the shortest as we're nearing the year end.

Having Dogecoin stayed for many years and also many negative discussions, I think they are already at success. Though I can't see how long this project will stay and be supported by the community, I know many people still use this coin for some reasons. It was not a reason because no Elon Musk it will die, it was not the reason we think it soon dies because of a declining value. It will just die if nobody will value this coin and all investors will dump together and reject it. Dogecoin is not literally a good choice of coin to hold but at least, it can be useful to some other ways.

Congratulations Bay Area Dragons, they beat the SMB 3-1.

That was an intense game, if CJ's 3 point shot went in, things could be different and we might see a game 5 for this series.
But hey! it's all over, series over for both semi Finals and we will now see the Ginebra vs Bay Area.

So let the betting begins.

But I'm taking the Knicks. Since thibs has changed the rotation knicks defense has been great and won the last 7 in a row. If golden state was healthy I'd think otherwise but west coast trip coming east is not the easiest travel especially them they aren't that good on the road at full strength. Think knicms win by 10 here

Same, Even without Curry and Wiggins, the Warriors can still be a threat but at the same time, I don't think Poole would drop another 40 points which made me take the Knicks -4.5 spread. The Knicks aren't not that great at home that's why the odds are this close but their last few wins at home have been within 10 points or more which is a good sign that they can cover the spread comfortably.

Congratulations mate because it turns out an easy win for the Nets. Warriors are very unpredictable, one day they'll beat a good team by a huge margin but the next day they lose by a huge margin. The struggle of the Warriors will continue once they missed their star players especially Curry. Poole was already playing the way he was expected to play, he just need the superstars to support him.

$70,000, $50,000 - honestly, it was really expensive that normal investors can't make it and they fall into investing shitcoins. Though DCA can be applied, however, the price is still high and OP was right, it was not a fair price anymore. As we drop down to $17,000, many people got happy but can't hide the fact that many were also disappointed because they are buying high and expecting a price increase after buying.

That is why we should never lose this opportunity as this never takes so long to stay, many speculations for the price surge in the coming years and we have to anticipate that moment before it comes.

Most people don't see the risk of storing their coins in an exchange wallet.
Most people disregard the possibility of losing control of their money if there is something will happen to the exchanges they used.
Panic has been growing after the FTX issue come out and people are withdrawing their funds from exchanges.

What happened to FTX gives a lesson to those holders who still using exchanges wallet. And you are right OP, lack of knowledge is one reason why people had lose their money. Therefore, it is an urge to have a huge understanding and invest time learning about the crypto market.

He almost brings the old glory back to Chicago after Jordan's era, become the youngest player to win the MVP award. It is something
that Chicago should give him that privilege of hanging his jersey with the team.

Still fresh in my memory how careless the coach back then, it was a blowout win already and DRose is no longer needed inside
the court.

But an accident really happened, and that injury bring the huge nightmare to DRose career. I'm also one of those fans who are looking
to see him wearing the Bulls uniform.

Can't change the past, maybe his time is just too short in NBA but we will never forget how he makes NBA more exciting to watch that time. He even gains lots of contracts outside the NBA, and that reward his greatness in basketball. Now, he is only a role player and we will never see the old DRose again.

If the old coach of the Bulls will come back, then most likely there's a good chance that he can convince DRose to come back.

Even if Tank Davis won't have a tune-up fight, I reckon that he still will be the favorite from the sports bookies lists.

I might have an idea why Ryan Garcia and his camp didn't push through their own tune-up fight, this is just a wild guess and I might be wrong about this but I'm thinking that they are refraining from doing the fight before Ryan fight Davis so that he won't be that predictable especially after the fact that Mercito Gesta moves like Davis. So, somehow, it's like giving Tank's camp some idea how they will be dealing with Tank. Although, as much as it will be an advantage, it's also an advantage because it's a good chance for Ryan Garcia to practice with Gesta because he's like Tank already.

This might be the case and it makes sense. Ryan Garcia is too confident that he can knock out Davis in two rounds so probably he has been preparing for some surprises. The fight with Gesta might spoil it and get revealed so he(Garcia) opts not to fight this Jan. even though it was announced as a signed contract. I wonder what is the reaction of Gesta about this backing out of Ryan Garcia. I haven't read any article or heard about the reaction of Gesta. The last thing I read is that Gesta is fully preparing for his fight against Ryan Garcia which is somehow impossible now.

He's like Romero before he fought Tank he is very confident that he can knock out Tank until he gets punched in the face, Ryan may have all the plans in the world to beat Tank but it will be thrown out the window once he tasted Tank's punches, he is to brazen he is not fighting a weak fighter this is the guy that keeps knocking out champions, I don't know why he is too confident of knocking out Tank in 2 rounds the guy has a good defense and is a good counter puncher.

I like the kind of mentality of Garcia, he is convincing himself that he can beat Tank Davis, but it's also necessary that he will not take him for granted, hard training is very important and hopefully, he will do good during the fight. I don't know who will win here because it's very obvious that it's a 50/50 fight although bookies listed Davis as a slight favorite.

...
So in conclusion: Bitcoin is the blanket cover for what cryptcucrency and digital currency stand for and only those that hold Bitcoin should be seen as the smart people, not those holding and gambling with shitcoins.

You can be right but many people don't just look for a long-term investment instead, they are looking for instant profit which sends them to investing shitcoins or hypes projects who promise them huge rewards. It is actually mind-changing, a huge offer could divert their minds and neglected to see the most reliable coin Bitcoin. I can't blame them either as it was their choice but for sure, they will realize their wrongdoings after suffering losses and then invest in Bitcoin.

Game 4 for both teams on Wednesday. I'll predict that the Dragons will finish it on Wednesday and will win against the Beermen. On the other match-up, if Lee will not play again, (because of injury or health issues) it will be over for the Hotshots. I mean he didn't play yesterday, and we saw how Ginebra demolished them so we might see the same result if Lee will not play.

There's a chance that Bay Area will win because they'll bounce back from a lose. And about Paul Lee, I think he can play because he only had a fever last night which I'm pretty sure he will be fine next game, however, Ginebra had the momentum and I think they also are the better team, so they might end the series as well. As what we've seen last night, Brownlee is unstoppable, so as long as no one can stop him, things will be tough for Magnolia

Even with a healthy and complete Magnolia, there's no way they can defeat the Ginebra Kings. if they can even the series in game 4, I believe the last laugh will still belong to the Gin Kings. What they showed in game 3 was complete dominance, their defense is very impressive, so I think they'll be a great match up with Bay Area.
