1801  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is Bitcoin bounce back to 60k in this year? on: April 01, 2022, 02:17:08 PM
According to my analysis, technical analysis of BTC has started to show its growth, maybe it will test the resistance level at 50K first before continuing or breaking above 50K. Fundamentally BTC is also starting to be positive.
We're moving down at this moment, we're turning back to $45k quiet to see the resistance didn't yet get the rising momentum and just it moves in sideways again.

However, I was still very much positive about the market and I don't have to consider this correction could make everyone going to panic. I'd consider this as an accumulation phase as it really possible that after this correction huge pumps can be happening next. We have to anticipate the market before it was going too late.
This seems the market play, nobody could even predict it right, and most of the time it went wrong. Reaching back to $60k is not impossible however it was just a matter of time, and this year might be difficult. Looking at the price trend, it is quite not to see the uprising momentum keep going, dumps still visible, and this is what we have now.
Though I was positive and very optimistic about the future of Bitcoin, I'd just think also that not all the time we went bullish. We are once done last year and I think this year seems impossible to make it again.
1802  Economy / Speculation / Re: How come BTC is not at least $75,000 yet? on: April 01, 2022, 11:07:03 AM
We have to be patient and don't be in a hurry, we have to reflect on 10 years ago, where bitcoin had absolutely no value, even most people hesitate to enter the world of bitcoin, for fear of new things, because most people think this is a scam, but as time goes by the price of bitcoin is increasing, and everyone is flocking to the world of bitcoin, even last february the price of bitcoin broke through $ 58,000, so if you ask why the price of bitcoin bitcoin has not penetrated the $ 75,000 mark, maybe my answer is because people still doubt about bitcoin, and people are still looking for a safe place, and still choosing banks as a safe place for them to keep their money.
You are right, also that for us to see BTC at $75k it can happen at any time, I dare to say that we have not touched that price range for the simple fact that it is the fundamental of the war, and I think that until it is normalize the situation or at least not reach a diplomatic agreement between the countries will have a slowing effect of the price of BTC going up as we are expecting it, in fact I think that when it goes up, $75k will not be the limit, it will be much more of it , maybe close to $100k. Of course this is just speculation, but it is no secret to anyone that anything can happen in this world situation, and the market moves according to many things, but one of the most influential is emotions.


From what I noticed in the past when people are not thinking of a bull run because they are tired of waiting and have been victims of many bull traps, that's the time when the bull run will come. If you remember the bull run in 2021, I'm pretty sure most of us did not expect that to happen because that was the time when people are struggling financially due to the pandemic.
1803  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING]: RYAN GARCIA vs EMMANUEL TAGOE - April 9 on: April 01, 2022, 10:43:41 AM

For Tagoe it could be a great surprise that he can win, in fact it is a great advantage that Tagoe can take advantage of in the fight, although it is not the idea and it would be a somewhat dirty strategy, I hope that they only limit themselves to giving a fight based on sports .


The mental problem has been existing for quite a while for Garcia. He rest for a while to solve that problem, and now on his come back, I'm sure that problem is already gone, or it that still remains at least he knows how to manage himself since he already submitted himself for healing.

I expect a more dangerous Ryan Garcia after a layoff in boxing to focus on solving his problem.

I never know Garcia had depression problems until I have read your discussions about his mental health.
Well, that's kinda serious mental disease, many have took their lives and Garcia also confess that he tried to kill himself before.
Anyway, that's not easy to overcome, I hope his training and passion to the sport makes him forget about that kind of mental disease.
This doesn't change the odds anyway, Garcia will still be the favourite.

The mental problem has been cured already, that's why he is now back in boxing because he is ready to face the big challenges. And of course, he has to start fighting an unknown fighter because he was out for a while and he just want to ensure he is really ready for a big fight.

~snip~
Almost lost my voice in the last minutes of the game. Durant didn't see a big window for a higher chance to score. Goran Dragic. He was free near the basket with some spare time. He could release it very quickly after the pass. Bucks knew their play, he should've used that to become a decoy.
Dragic was actually expecting it if ever KD will pass.



That's the role most of the superstars that fans expect and loves to see and that's almost automatic down the stretch. It's always expected that the recipient to finish the game would always be the superstar.
I bet If that was LeBron, he could've seen him wide open for the three and pass it to him for sure. But then again, the narrative would be different when it comes to LeBron passing the ball during the dying seconds of the game.
Well, we knew KD is always gonna be the finisher and most likely not to pass when the game is on the line.
That's what KD is built for, he would always take the last shot, unlike Lebron who is afraid of taking the last shot. I didn't see this game but judging by the scorecards, I'm sure it was an exciting game and therefore I would not miss the highlights.
1805  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto Scams now the second largest in the world on: March 31, 2022, 10:20:55 PM
snipped...
Let us hope that your friend listened to your advice, however I am always surprised by the lack of common sense of most people, one of the most famous slogans of this market is that bitcoin allows you to be your own bank, and while that comes with a set of benefits and freedoms it also brings new responsibilities.

This means that we are directly responsible for anything that happens to our coins, so if we happen to make a good investment and we earn money then it was due to our own merits, but if we happen to lose that money then it is our fault regardless of how it happened, this means that even if scammers are directly responsible for the loss of coins that a great deal of people experiment in this market, at the end they are at fault too as they are the ones that decided to give their money to the scammers in the first place.
Yes, scammers will never win if we don't let them win also. They just survive and continue their doings because we also give them the chance to do it. Definitely, we don't have to blame others even these scammers because we make decisions individually, unfortunately, some people did stupid decision due to their greediness. It is our responsibility to take care of our funds and to be aware and knowledgeable about these scams strick as this helps us not to fall in them. We have to be more vigilant and take actions responsibly.
1806  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: who is behind shiba inu on: March 31, 2022, 01:03:06 PM
Whoever is behind this current surge of Shiba Inu, it does not important to know as for sure, he didn't want to tell the public. But there are some factors that could affect its trend, not just because someone else is manipulating the market or doing the shilling like Dige before...
But being listed on Binance is considered to create a bragging effect on the investors. Such a reliable and one of the trusted exchanges in the crypto market, makes them trust and believe that this project has a fortune.
1807  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Inoue vs Donaire II discussion on: March 31, 2022, 04:17:55 AM
Finally, it's been announced that the two will once again face each other. I think this is already official. Even Inoue has already confirmed the fight and the fight details on social media. The date is set on June 7, 2022 and the venue will be in Saitama, Japan.

I am once again excited because I know the two will give us an explosive fight. The last time they met, in 2019, the two made a fight of the year.  I am looking forward to the same level of energy in this rematch.

After long speculation, finally, it will happen.

This fight is going to be one of the best fights this year, and the best in the bantam weight division.
Hopefully, Casimero would win against Butler, so he can have a chance to fight the winner of this bout.

It's even earlier than we expected. This would be more than a month from now, and I'm pretty sure both boxers are already preparing now for this big fight. While Casimeor is having trouble with his upcoming fight, this fight just gives the fans a lot of excitement and personally, I cannot wait to see this.
1808  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: March 31, 2022, 03:21:44 AM
Lakers are at risk of not qualifying even in the play-in tournament.

They are ranked number 10 now and the Spurs have a great chance to replace them.
What are your thoughts about their situation guys? Looks like they are a complete failure already.
What worse with them is that, their 7 games will be one of the hardest and the deciding factor as well whether they will enter the play-in tournament or not. Just see their remaining games and 5 of them are from the top teams right now.

With regards to them being a failure, its pretty obvious that they are. Many are expecting that they will at least win the championship but now look what is happening with them. There is also a chance that they can't even enter the play-in since they are 11th if they will continue to play like this. I think I will agree with what others is saying here that they will not enter the play-in because of their schedule and the absence of their players when they need them the most. Lets move on with them I think and talk with other teams as well. Many are talking about the Lakers too much that we forgot other teams already. Smiley

They are already out of the playoff picture, currently ranked at number 11 but tied with a win-loss record with the spurs.
Spurs are playing with Memphis now, they were down but now in the 4th quarter, they played better and were able to make this a very close game.

2 points lead by Memphis only, I would expect that they'll win this game and make the home crowd happy.

Yes, but the Spurs lost to Memphis, so Lakers are now back in the play-in picture.

Lakers need to win their next game so they would go ahead of the Spurs, right now, they are still in danger of losing the opportunity to play in the play-in tournament. Lakers next game is against the Jazz, this is a tough game for them, but they need to win.
1809  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: March 31, 2022, 02:20:49 AM
Pulled the trigger on the Suns -4.5 @1.92, I expect the Warriors losing streak to continue but at the same time they might be pressured to snap their losing streak as they're only a few losses away from dropping their position in the standings now that the Mavs are closing in on them. Also, Curry is still out on the side of the Warriors even though the odds suggest they have a decent chance I just think it's hard to pass up the odds on the Suns knowing they have the better form.

Good luck on that, Warriors may continue to struggle and Suns will extend their winning streak to 9.

By way, I like to say congratulations to those who put their money on the Miami Heat, that ML is very sweet because they beat the Celtics in their home.
Congrats also to those who take the handicap, you like to be on the safe side but you still win your bet.
1810  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How safe it is to invest in cryptocurrency on: March 30, 2022, 10:14:11 PM

So far, Bitcoin has received the title of the best investment, which is able to provide returns of tens of thousands of percent in a matter of years. Whether or not it is safe to invest in Bitcoin depends on how we store our bitcoins.
AFAIK, it said was one of the growing investments but it is also one of the riskiest investments. Well, we know the risk in investing but crypto is quite different and we consider the scam issue that changes and ruin its reputation.
if we only just talking about Bitcoin, therefore, it was obviously the best but since OP is mentioning cryptocurrency, in general, which is literally a risky investment.

Live match now between Magnolia Hotshots vs Meralco Bolts, do you think they would beat the lead team Magnolia Hotshots? I am not really familiar with the current players of the PBA but right now it is the only available live match in Stake.com I placed bet with the Magnolia based from the previous matches and their current standing which is 9-2

Meralco is on decent spot in standing also they have high caliber players so we can say that they have good chances to defeat Magnolia in this game. But we can really say that its a tough match for them as they are playing with the number 1 seed and as we know the confidence level is so high and that might give them a win then continue to extend their winning record.

Looking at the game now looks like we are going to see a do-or-die game between these two teams.

1st half is over and Magnolia has a very comfortable lead, 42-30 is the current score, it's a low-scoring game so you can tell how Magnolia played their defense in this game as they don't want to go home.

It's not over yet, but I agree that the Magnolia has a comfortable lead and they might even the series tonight. End of 3rd quarter already and they were able to maintain their double-digit lead, let's see if they close well and win this game.

Paul Lee is still struggling with 4-14 shooting so far, good thing their import is having a good game tonight.


There's still time, Meralco is capable of getting a big run, in fact, they are now trailing by a single digit only, so I think Magnolia fans should not celebrate early as this could also be their last game.  Smiley Anyway.. good luck, game 5 makes the series more interesting though but if Meralco will end the series tonight, I'm okay with that.

The game is over, there will be game 5 of this series.

Final score: 94-73, Magnolia wins.

Harris with 34 points and was named as the best player of the game.

See you in game 5,  choose wisely as I'm sure it will be a very close series.
1812  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: GGG vs Murata - Reschedule on: March 30, 2022, 12:13:20 PM

And maybe this is the big reason why Canelo agreed now, because he was totally against the 3rd fight because there is nothing to proved as he beat GGG already.

But as he mature and maybe by some advise of his close families and confidante, now it make sense because of the money and for his legacy.

Money is the most legacy he doesn't need to prove since he is the one who won the fight after that draw.

As he matures, he understands the value of money and how he can make more by following the fans.. hahaha
let see if GGG will win this fight against Murata.

If both win from their respective fights, that will be the best time to discuss or to open the talk in regards
between GGG and Alvarez trilogy.

The reason why that discussion came up is because we are confident that they will win in their respective fight.  We all know how heavy favorite they are, so their win will certainly open doors for the biggest fight this year which is the GGG vs Canelo Trilogy.

1814  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Tips and tricks for day trading on: March 29, 2022, 01:27:47 PM
There are several strategies in day trading and you can choose them according to your plan in the future and also convenience. To do day trading is a bit tiring because our focus will be divided and we also have to move quickly to make sure we get the right moment in a short time, even a matter of minutes. it will be a little troublesome for beginners but if indeed you are interested in trying it then that's good.
This will not be the behavior of a trade that wants to succeed. It needs passion and a sort of dedication. Pursuing a dream is not easy, time, effort, and we never have to feel tired or else, we only just fail. What I am trying to say is that we have to be strong and positive. We have to neglect/ignore negative things around us as this will be the reason for our failure.

- keep moving forward
- focus on the thing we need to accomplish
- must wear positivity in mind

Hope i will able to make a good place for my future .
You can for as long as you have the trust and confidence in what you are doing now. Bitcoin is really profitable, however, many had also lost their hopes because of their mistakes. Thus, if you think investing is a good opportunity to earn money, then you'd rather have to take it seriously and act wisely. This somehow gives you a light for a better future that is why you have to protect and continue to learn.

Lastly, forget about gambling and never comeback, this never give you fortune, otherwise. 
1816  Economy / Economics / Re: Regulation seem like the only option left on: March 28, 2022, 01:13:21 PM
Regulation tends to kill innovation, therefore it's not good at all. Increasing regulation kills also decentralization and privacy. Cryto community somewhat self regulated early years, of course there's no way back to it... but towards tightening laws, which leads ultimately as tight regulations as with banks. That is absolutely bad thing. It puts power on the few hands of the few bureaucrats, and leaves no room for small actors or individuals to enter the ecosystem with innovative solutions nor copy & paste tokens.
We actually look it good being unregulated and controlled by the government but it was so sad that some opportunist people like scammers take advantage of this as they can just play the market freely without worrying they got caught. Though I wasn't in favor of the government making a step with this and promoting regulation, however, I think this will give help stop the scam activities and lower the chances to get scammed.
This is just not meant for innovation control, this will help to improve the image of crypto instead which is somehow ruined by these scammers.
1817  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Errol Spence Jr vs. Yordenis Ugas 3-Belt Welterweight Unification Match on: March 25, 2022, 09:05:08 PM

The adjustment from Ugas will be the exciting thing that may happen here, if he can take those solid punches and throw also a good heavy counter to bring Spence down..

That's what I like to see from him, however, I think the chance is very low because his counter punch is not to damage the opponent but for him to only score and win the fight. If his counter is solid, he could have knock-out Pacman in his last fight when the legend could not even move like his usual.
1818  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is this true? on: March 25, 2022, 02:03:46 PM
Altcoins that are released in the bear market have a high chance of bringing good returns than those that have already surged high in a bull market, this is what a friend told me this morning, do you think this is true? He used Vulcan forged as an example

Yes, that's true because most of the altcoins released in the bear season become undervalued, I'm talking about the legit coins, not the hype ones that have no potential in the future. If you see some coins that you think has a great potential, better buy it during the bear season as they say, bear season is the right opportunity to buy and bull season is the right opportunity to sell.
1819  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Russian head of the committee on Energy about selling oil and gas in Bitcoin on: March 25, 2022, 01:40:39 PM
This would benefit them because their fiat (Ruble ) has dropped in value.

With Bitcoin, they can still sell their oil at a competitive price, and that is also to prevent the economic sanctions implemented unto them from the countries that condemn their actions. As they make this smart move, this would also give a very big and positive impact to the crypto market.
1820  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Comparing the previous bear run of Market on: March 25, 2022, 12:59:47 PM
I wouldn't compare the two because there's at least as many differences as similarities.
You have different volumes, cycle time, percentage gain, number of tops with the second ATH being only a few percent higher than the last which never happened before. Then you have a drop that wasn't really steep actually it was the same drop as we had in 2021 after the first ATH. This is also the first time that bitcoin gained a high, corrected and went to a new high followed with almost the same correction. I feel like we are still in a bull market just a corrective phase of it.
The market changes a lot after the last ATH and it was growing more. So if we compare the past in today's situation, it certainly has a huge difference and fewer similarities.
* trading volume - that absolutely improving and this because many had known already about trading.
* the number of traders are growing pushing the price move high, not going down.
* majority had able to control themselves and even hold during the dip. A change in minds that we mostly notice this time, we never see panic selling like what we saw in the past.

Corrections can be happening but not similar to the past where the price badly turn difficult and hard down.
