661  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Spot trading or future trading which trading is best for beginers? on: October 03, 2023, 06:31:59 PM
-snip-
Better to start with spot and this is something more simple because you arent making use of higher leverage because the higher it would be the higher the risks that you would really be needing to face
up and this isnt something newbie-friendly and this is why it would really be that better on taking up such decision.
Spot trading will seem slower for those who are impatient, and Beginners who have not gained full knowledge of crypto trading will choose Futures trading with high leverage to get more profits, but they don't know that the decision will make them lose instantly or get liquidated due to the use of high leverage.

The use of leverage must be very wise and one must think about the risks that will be experienced when the price prediction is wrong.
and backup funds are also important to have.

Basic knowledge in any trade is very important to learn to avoid the risk of loss so as not to create a negative stigma about crypto.
Totally true and this is really just that based up on real experience on which if you do find yourself that being in a rush on making up some money then spot trading would really be just that giving out that so slow kind of
showing those outcomes or results on which it would really be resulting that you might be ending up on being impatient and being impulsive in towards your trading position on which it might causes for you to rush up
your decisions and make out alterations not on the right time on which it would definitely be resulting on messing up your trading analysis that had been made earlier on which we know that its not something that recommendable. When you are just that trying out to touch up this kind of career then it would really be just that ideal that you should be sticking on something that less risky and comparing out spot to futures then it would really be just that so normal that dealing with spot would be the best choice. Come to think that even on veterans or older ones which futures isnt something that so easy to be handled out because dealing
up with higher leverage does really impose bigger risks and this is something that they should really be avoiding.

Are you trying to hide the name of the casino, OP? Why is that? Are you afraid of being targeted by their staff?
We can do honest reviews here, but I understand if you want to keep playing there despite these restrictions and don't want to reveal the name for that reason.

Is coins.game the site we're talking about here?

IMO it's very strange for a casino to not accuse a player of illicit behavior and restrict him without any reason.
Better to tell the name of the platform so that at least the community does know on which site does have that kind of behavior and must be avoided but its true that it is really that unlikely
for a casino to make out restrictions on someone or into their players unless if there would be some issues or violations then most likely this one would be applied but if there's none then its
odd on taking up such decision. It would really be that  good if the casino name would really be that mentioned so that the community would be wary that this is what their standard is
on the time that you do have some good winning rate and able to take advantage with their bonuses.
663  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin October Month Performance on: October 02, 2023, 08:48:37 PM
I believe October will runup much like it did in 2015. That was a 33% jump which would mean we would be close to 35-40k by months end.

On march 31  2023 or April 15 2023 the ˝ ing happens. At current difficulty price needs to be over 48k by then or a mining collapse will happen.

I am pretty sure we will mirror 2015-2016 runup leading into the ˝ ing

so a 33% jump in Oct 2023 seems to be a good guess.
So what are your basis on trying to mimic out or having those similarities on 2015'ish kind of situation on trying out to mirror on what would happen for this month?

We know that market cant really be that read out even if there would really be those sentiments around on which we could see and tell that it is really that relevant
specially on fundamentals which might really be that could greatly affect. The only thing that i do accept or having that relevance on which price should hit
48k and tying it up with miners then it is really that something a good approach or convincing.

33% jump for this month is something that too much basing up on Sept. movements which we are really that moving sideways. Wont be shocking if we do
still stay below 30k for this month of OCT.
664  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can money be saved in gambling sites? on: October 02, 2023, 07:59:29 PM
`

True but people are lazy enough in doing it. They were not even willing to spend a few minutes on that thing. let's say their money will be much safer once they will able to send their money to their cold wallet.
I think that was not a difficult task but anyone has different opinion regarding. Some said a few minutes are still worthy time and that's the reason they were not willing to send back their money used for gambling to their cold wallet.
I meant if they were storing in a legit gambling site and that's not a problem at all but the main problem if the site can sometime change its TOS which will be also affecting the balance owned by the users.
Anyone was not willing to see that happen their money trapped into the site. Thats better to spend a few minutes but we can secure a lot of our money. Its still worthy with the time as long as we will always having our money in our wallet.
It only takes a few minutes to secure your money, right? People should take their time. Yes, a tiny time investment pays you in security and comfort of mind. Priorities matter, right? We all make time for important things.

What if your Internet is slow and it takes more than a few minutes? But wait, is that really a bigger issue than securing your funds?

Gambling is fun, but keeping money on a site is like keeping eggs in a basket on a very loose hook. It may hold or fall and break them all. Terms and restrictions can change, leaving you and your funds out of luck. Pause, safeguard your money, and gamble what you can afford to lose. Is it worthwhile?

Laziness or really just that confident or simply they had already just accepted their fate on losing all of those funds later on? No matter what we do then people does have that different kind of mindset when it comes to things but it is really that something that too absurd on leaving that significant amount of money in a place on which you dont really possess its keys on which it is really that imposing risks on which we should really be mindful and its true that terms and conditions or whatever changes that could happen along the way on which it might really be resulting for that fund lock and this is something that we dont really like to experience.
There's no sense on making it as your main wallet but if you are really that someone who do really actively plays on a certain platform and doesnt really like the hassle on making up some withdrawal and then deposit
afterwards then its your choice to take up this option but just as been said that it is really that imposing risks on which you might be ending up on facing those common problems.

If you dont like on facing those possibilities then spending a few cent or bucks would really be just making yourself that safe on possible trouble. It doesnt really cost you an arm and leg
for you to pull out those funds and you could really sleep that well.
665  Economy / Economics / Re: Ideas without action: An overview of a successful entrepreneur and a dreamer. on: October 02, 2023, 07:35:17 PM
I want to add one more really point into that.

Fear of losing their family while pursuing dream

Yeah, it may look add from others but still, it is one of the reasons why the majority of the ones who are filled with ideas can't afford to chase their dreams cause they might be the only person who can feed the family, or thousand other reasons like that which we may experience/ passed/heard is also stop them from doing what they can potentially do because they may not have the financial stability to run the family if there is no income generated from that person so they all keep doing even if they wish they could do something better.
If you are a breadwinner into your family then you would really be needing on taking up those sacrifices but we know that it isnt something a very easy decision to be made considering that you are really that risking
your families condition but if you are really that doing something for much better thing or for better good then its not bad to consider on going into that path. Ideas without having any action would really be just pointless or useless. No matter how great the idea is on what you do have in mind but if it wont come into fruition just because you didnt make out any action then it would really be just remaining to be a dream like forever and this is something that a must avoided thing if you dont really like on finding yourself that having no progress at all. To those who do made out some act and hard work on trying out to achieve their dreams are the ones having the chance or the opportunity on which they could really be able to have those kind of those possible change if they have done it right and having a little bit mix of luck which we know that there are really things
in life that no matter how hard you do work but having no mix of a little luck then it would really be still leading you nowhere.
666  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ban from a Casino for Nothing Other Than Winning Too Much Money on: October 01, 2023, 08:59:28 PM
Let's take a moment to think about this and tell me if I am correct. All of the people whom I have observed getting banned from gambling at casinos by the casino management, aside from misconduct and other offenses, are individuals who keep winning significant amounts of money. For instance, consider Dana White.  
Quote
He has been prohibited from playing at some of the city’s best casinos, including the Wynn and the Palms, due to his high-stakes gambling habits.  The UFC president is an avid gambler who has won substantial sums of money while spending hours at the tables in his chosen state of Nevada. But after some of his spectacular winning streaks, large hotel and casino locations like the Wynn have previously given him trouble. https://www.insidesport.in/accused-of-bankrupting-hotel-dana-white-explains-getting-banned-racking-up/#:~:text=He%20has%20been%20prohibited%20from,his%20chosen%20state%20of%20Nevada.

The way I perceive it is that if a person who is not cheating or engaging in illegal gambling activities consistently wins, the casino is highly likely to ban that person, just as they did with Dana White.
Very normal approach on which business something like this doesnt really like into those people who do constantly win or have that huge winning gambling profit and as a business-owner then you would really be definitely
trying to get rid of that person no matter how influential or popular you are on which you would really be still be banned no matter what. They are running a business and it would really be just that a common impression that if a certain gambler that constantly wins or making huge revenue impact then its a normal thing to be done or approach that they would really be needing to deal with.

If we do talk about sports betting then they cant really be able to throw about cheating or whatsoever issues correlated to it but if we do speak about those casino slots and other gaming
then it might be potentially be accused that you had been affected with some bugs on the machine that been used or card counting when you do deal up with some card games or whatsoever.
Its not really that new anymore and there's nothing you can do once they do make out such decision.
667  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: trade without fees? on: October 01, 2023, 07:56:02 PM
Commission fees are one of the revenue items of both exchanges and miners. Therefore, trading without commission is a temporary marketing move, nothing more, to attract new traders. Of course, we would like this world to be more perfect, but it is impossible. Earnings come first here
And this is how business works, they might be having pairs that having zero fees but just like been said that those things would really be just that temporal.  Cheesy Business is business and there's no such thing to be like forever and this is why there would really be trading pairs on which it would really be just that having those zero maker/taker fees and it is really that something useful in speaking about taking advantage and make most of your trading journey but expect that it would be changed later on and that would really be entirely be depending on them. If you do find yourself that getting comfortable on the current exchange that you are dealing with
then it is really just that depending into your preference. Speaking about those platforms then it wouldnt be necessary for me to say up on the same thing or names on which it had been mentioned by other
members on early page or replies which i would really be definitely be suggesting or telling on the same thing.
668  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Answer this Question on Credits Left on a Slot Machine by Someone Else on: October 01, 2023, 06:40:25 PM
There is a general rule in land based casinos that a gambler shouldn't take credits left on a slot machine by someone else. Basically, from what I understand, if there is still credit showing on a slot machine. Don't cash out or add to your money you put into the machine. Right? The question is if you find a cash out voucher resting on the machine itself or on the seat, can you legally use it?

I think legally not as there is cash in there,however I have seen people leaving only dust amounts like 0.10 to 0.20 dollars which they got mad and left the game not giving a damn about such low amount in such cases other people have put money of their own and kept playing,the person who left did not turn back so nothing wrong here.

However personally I would never do that as I have seen when I was working in a casino in the 2000-2005 years that some people that played with max bet left money intentionally in there and told the casino people to not let anyone to play that slot as they were going home to get money and coming back again,no one touched such slot machines.
So it would really be on case to case basis on which it would really be just that depending if there are rules or not but just simply with that common sense then its not really just that right to continue if ever there are credits
or funds that had been still sitting there because you dont know whether those bettors or gamblers had just left out temporarily or would really be coming back but there are indeed some situations on which leaving up some dust amounts and not something that you should bother yourself. We do know that there are really that people who do really leave out due to frustration on which your common sense will tell you that it isnt bad to finish
on what he had started and this is the time that you would really be adding up your own. If the amount involved is big then it would really be just that right that you should really be that stopping on making use of it,
if ever you had continued it and someone do make out some complaints then it would really be definitely be starting up some serious argumentation or complaints basing up on what you have done and this is something
that we dont really like to happen right?
669  Economy / Speculation / Re: Impact of bitcoin price speculations on individual bitcoin holding on: September 30, 2023, 08:34:44 PM
When you see one, you are not entirely sure if it is a good one or a fake one. If you think it is a good one and it turns out to be a terrible then you lose money, if you think it is terrible and it turns to be good, the worst that could happen is missing a profit chance.

When you compare "losing money" vs "not making money", people would prefer not making money, in one you are still holding the same amount, in the other you are losing more than you bargained for. This is why it is quite important to realize that you are going to end up making a profit if you are careful about it and that should be an alright situation without a doubt, I have been in favor of that forever.
Which is why it is important to try to find our tolerance to risk before we choose a strategy, after all someone could have access to the most profitable strategy all around the world and it will be for nothing if they cannot execute the strategy properly as they are afraid about making a mistake or losing too much money, and in that case it would be better to use a strategy that might not be as profitable but that limited their potential losses at the minimum.
There's no such thing about strategy or something that do talks about assurance on making money within this market and this is why people would really be trying out to stick and finding those possible analysis on which they could mold on different methods that they would know because we know that this market is really that unpredictable and no matter how sure you are with your analysis but if the market movement and other factors or sentiments would really be that bitter and go oppose on what you had predicted then it would really be going south and there's nothing you can do about it and this had been always the case or possibles scenario on which
you could really be able to encounter.

If you are a holder then it might sounds easy but its not.Im holder myself but i have been able to pass up different conditions or situations on which it would really be testing you out into your limit on which you might
really be ending up on selling your assets or coins on the time that you do see that the market condition is really at its worst + into those negative sentiments and speculations that you would really be able to read
around. You would really be that definitely having those second thoughts and hesitance whether you should pursue on holding for long or you would really be making out some cut losses
on which your mind and emotion would really be your main enemy on here.
670  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Inoue vs Tapales for Unified Super Bantamweight Title - November on: September 30, 2023, 07:59:21 PM
^^ It will be huge if suddenly Inoue decided to fight Casimero instead of unifying all the belts against Tapales. However, it will really be a big reason for Inoue to go for Casimero first. There should be somewhat that evoke Inoue, maybe he just want to shut the mouth of Casimero for good or just let Tapales fight for the mandatory first and then see how it goes for Marlon. And then after he disposed of John Riel then they will go after Tapales next. But let's see, I'm also on the side of Inoue vs Tapales happening maybe November-December, or at least this year and then Inoue unifying the belts in the bantamweight/super bantamweight in the modern era so that is another history for the Japanese.
That's just the second option. Inoue has a bigger chance of winning against Tapales than against Casimero, so he would not choose a hard battle with less reward. If he beats Tapales, he will be holding all the belts, and in that position, he can choose to fight any fighter he wants. Maybe Casimero's name will come up, maybe...

Right now, we should remain optimistic that this fight will happen, despite there being some rumors that it might not happen. The longer they prolong this, the more the excitement will die.

I'm saying if it's not possible this year, make it early next year. I think that's reasonable already.

That is the best thing that we can do right now, hope that we can see this fight at least happening this year. It was touted to be in November, but so far there's no update, we just know that the fight will be in Japan and pegged the month as November.

Inoue was not badly damage against Fulton, so maybe he just need a couple of weeks rest and he is back again. We've seen videos of him and his brother sparring, as Takuma will have to defend his belt against another Fiipino. So maybe Naoya Inoue is already cleared to fight, but it's just a matter of negotiating with team Tapales and for the to be ok with the purse split.
Are they still with that purse split? Its true that as long we arent making or seeing some updates or news in regarding with those kind of issues and havent seen any announcement or words from them then it would really be safe to assume out that it is really that still on or really that still in track for it to happen. We do still have that a month+ to wait up but we know that fights could really be postpone immediate if there would really be some sudden news or announcement in regarding about those disagreements in between parties on which it is really just that normal that Tapales team would definitely be asking for their fair share or slice
when it comes to that purse issue and Inoue's team is really just that too demanding a bigger slice considering that the other half or team are also a champion. They shouldn't really be taking up their heads too big
just because they are really that being popular or known but doesnt mean that they should really be giving out the priority. Everything should really be fair and square.

Possible upset for this year?
https://news.abs-cbn.com/sports/08/03/23/boxings-biggest-upset-this-year-if-tapales-beats-inoue-analyst

If Tapales would be able to beat up Inoue then for sure it would really be the biggest paycheck on his career and at the same time it would really be a big boost up
into his popularity if he could really be able to pull this upset knowing on how heavily favorite Inoue is.
671  Economy / Economics / Re: Building wealth it's not just one time Luck on: September 29, 2023, 08:52:49 PM
Yes, it's important to emphasise wise spending and investment. I've heard several stories of sudden wealth that vanishes rapidly. One of the biggest issues is ignorance about finances. When people get their hands on a significant money, they often assume it will last them a lifetime. They spend mindlessly. And where does it leave them? Broke, stressed, and in debt

I believe wise, intentional investing is necessary to maintain and grow wealth. Investing in equities or Bitcoin has power. I see it as a way to diversify and possibly create wealth, despite the risks and volatility debate. Again, a plan and knowledge are crucial. Wealth is money management, not just money
Indeed, it would be better if we could manage our spending on investing. If we cannot control our spending on investing, it will be very detrimental if we experience losses and don't have any money left so we can't meet our needs. If they spend money without thinking, of course they have never experienced the difficulty of earning money, so when they use their money they don't think about anything.

I really agree with you that in investing we really need to understand it well, not just have money and then invest, we need to understand it well so that we can overcome obstacles if there are obstacles in investing. For those who can manage their finances well, of course they will become rich with their money and for those who can't, of course they will never be able to because they keep spending their money and only realize it when there is no more left.
Invest what we can; risk what we can afford to lose. We tend to forget that not every investment can promise profit, there are time that we will experience losses like any other transactions that involves money. Hence, by forgetting that we go way out of line by putting everything we have to investing, getting to carried out that we forget how vital it is to ensure that we still keep something for ourselves in case of unforseen circumstances. We need to learn how to divide our income for our daily spendings, investments, and savings. As much as investing have a great number of benefits for us, we still need to set a limit.
If you do like for your life to have some progress or really have those kind of targets or goals then it would really be just that normal that you should need to work hard for it and make out some sacrifices or simply taking up
some risks because you cant really be that able to progress or changed up your life if you wont really be taking up such path. Dont believe or put up into your mind into those successful people or rich ones hadnt been able to pass up these kind of challenges in life. There's no easy way on acquiring richness without passing all those challenges on which you would commonly be able to experience.Building wealth though does really have some sort of mix of luck on the time that you are dealing something because despite on putting  those hard work and whatever sacrifices you had made but if there's no luck mixed with it then you would really be still able to fail.

Note on here is that  you should not make yourself in a rush because this is where mistakes do happen.Set your priorities and set your plans and work hard for it.
Dont rely on luck because without hard work and some wise approach on decision making then it would really be that useless.

Who are Puppey and M_C fans here? There's a rumor that they might be seen in TI12 and might play as standins for the Team SMG.

Why? Again, just like the other problems in the past for their TI participation and it's all about the biggest and strongest opponent of most of them, VISA.

News:
MinD ContRoL Can Go To TI12 With Team SMG
Rumors: Puppey to play for SMG at The International 2023

Again these are still all rumors.

And apart from that, it seems that we've got lesser time to see a huge prize pool for this TI. It seems that Valve shortened the time for the collection of 25% sales of the new compendium. Based from what I have seen, the current prize pool for this is around $2.5M as for the collection as of typing this but this can still grow and more. We still got around 2 more weeks for the start of the TI.
Not really new anymore on which tons of dota players or professionals wasnt able to attend whether on TI or even with those Majors or other tourneys just because of VISA problems.
This is indeed their strongest opponent i should say.  Grin Once your declined or having issues then for sure you wont really be able to play together with your team and
this is where stand-in do begins. Puppey and M_C? Well having these veteran players playing on a team then you cant go wrong with them though and lets see on how
far that SMG could be able to reach out.

Speaking about TI prize pool then its already that not shocking that they wont really be getting that bigger prize pool for this year. Why? they didnt really able to release that Battle pass earlier
but instead they are focusing on compedium and we know that TI date is fast approaching. There's no much time for the pool to make it big and also
with those stuffs given or could be acquired then its total shit. We do lots Arcanas and Immortals baby.

Everyone knows that we can learn from the past to correct mistakes.
As a result, many economists attempt to predict the future through history.

We also have a known fact from the past.
The "Bitcoin halving" is correlated with price increases.

I'd like to pose a new question here.
What are your thoughts on using past charts(candlesticks) that similar current ongoing charts(candlesticks) to make price predictions?

When asked this question to many professors and investors, a common response is, "Candlesticks reflect the psychology of investors."

What are your thoughts on this matter?
When it comes to type of analysis that could deal with then it would really be just on this two;

1. Fundamental
2. Technical

Fundamentals talking about news and events on the market neither it would really be correlated with those typical economic news and other markets which it do really correlates and connects out on crypto
space or not because having those kind of sentiments could neither be that affecting or not this space on which assuming out that this is really that correlates or connect then it is really that
safe to presume that it wont really be that a bad idea on trying to check out and consider on applying it into your analysis.This is why as a trader or a investor then you would really be needing
to be that versatile.

Now, speaking about TA's? We know that not all the time this market would really be having those kind of news and this is where making use of these tools or indicators would
really be that relevant or something that it is really that recommended on doing so.
674  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Youth Gambling on: September 28, 2023, 09:56:20 PM
Among young people is a result of the availability of gambling alternatives, such as sports betting and online gambling. Gambling disorders can have long-term effects on a person's ability to complete their education and choose their future, and young individuals may be particularly susceptible to acquiring these illnesses
Too much of everything is bad, and gambling is no exception to that, which is why when people gamble, its advisable people gamble responsibly, and not make it a do-or-die affair, as that's where the spirit of being an addict starts from (i.e. when a teenager sees gambling as his only source of income and last hope for life). However, taking a look at this image below, one can easily understand that the age bracket of people said to be gambling addicts are those of age bracket 18yrs to 24yrs,  followed by those of age bracket 25yrs to 35yrs. Which means these are potential gambling addict, and as such, it will be wise if anyone gamble responsibly.


Link: https://quitgamble.com/gambling-addiction-statistics-and-facts/

This is the highest number of possibility on which this age bracket could be potentially become and addict.

Gambling when drunk or high can be costly for anyone, but especially for those between the ages of 18-24 who are at the highest risk of experiencing harms from gambling.
https://www.responsiblegambling.org/for-the-public/safer-play/gambling-and-young-adults/

Numbers cant really be that precised but we do know that if you do start up on young with gambling engagement then most likely you would really be growing up with that kind of habit
on which later on you would really be affecting yourself but on the time that you are still that dependent from your parents when it comes to finances then it would really be hindering
you on playing since you dont have the funds that much and when addiction is severe then this where illegal doings would kick in on which it is really just that sad
if you do really come into this point.
675  Economy / Speculation / Re: Michael Saylor predicts Bitcoin can go to $5 million? on: September 28, 2023, 08:53:23 PM
The point is: in 2023, I have seen a lot of speculation and predictions expressed by many people, not only Michael Saylor, many other users are saying what Saylor said, What's worse is that they speculate more than $5 million on the future price of Bitcoin, some people think it's excessive and some people think there is nothing impossible that anything could happen to Bitcoin.

However, to be honest, for myself, at least I have separate speculation for Bitcoin in the future, the highest is between $100k - $200k, it seems that $5 million will take a long time to achieve, even though we never know the real crypto market and Bitcoin's next direction.

There is no way we can predict future price of Bitcoin. Majority of speculations and predictions about Bitcoin price went wrong. As far as this 5 Million price prediction is concerned, I think its exaggerated figure. Right now everyone eyes are whether Bitcoin can go and surpass 100,000 $ or not. Next year halving is also a much awaited figure and will give a good hint about future price of Bitcoin.

They can make any prediction they want, but if they want to convince others, they must at least show what evidence or documents they rely on to make that statement.  but most are just spontaneous speculations, saying whatever they think without any evidence.  so these numbers are greatly exaggerated. 
You're right, we haven't even crossed $100k yet, so thinking of higher goals is wild.  five million USD per bitcoin is a really attractive number but too illusory and exaggerated beyond necessary.
Even if they would really be presenting any documents or whatsoever which it wont really be that still different because everything would really be remain as speculative approach on which it is really that actually free or could really be say by everyone which it doesnt matter if you are just an average joe or known people here in this market or space. We can really be able to make our own numbers on which it would really be just that
depending on how positive or being optimistic you are in towards bitcoins potential. It is really just there are really some numbers turns out to be non-realistic already. Yes, its not bad on being realistic but we know that if you are a person who do have that reputation and popularity, then whatever speculations that you would really be saying which it might really be affecting someones views and decisions specially newbie ones on which they are usually that get easily affected whenever we do see these kind of price calls and speculations which on the time that they do read up then this is the time that they would really be able to make out some conclusions that they should go all in just because they are already imaging on the profits that they could make if that prediction or price speculation did really happen.

This is officially the worst sales start in the history of compendiums/battle passes since 2015.

Totally expected this to happen since last year. We cant keep this TI prizepool to be that huge anymore. Most of us that play regularly or follow this game's update has been growing older. Some of us even had family now compared to like 5-8 years ago so yeah no wonder that we will be getting lower prizepool for TI even if those compendiums stuff are good

After such words, the desire to buy it disappears.

Well I might buy some just to support this old timer game but yeah I dont even play it anymore since few years LOL
Cant really still make out those conclusions though because we know that dota players on this generation do still continually to add up but i do agree on some points that to those people who are really that still playing until now which we do really have our own family. Just like me on which i've been playing ever since when im in highschool on which now that im already 32 of age and having my own family then you would of course be
prioritizing your family needs on which it would be resulting on having that lesser expense on buying up that Battle pass compared into those days which im not still married on where i do always love to buy
BP on huge or big levels or simply spending up that much.

Honestly, i was really that totally disappointed with the Compendium update recently, those are just skins and some wheel chats and i was expecting for some Immos or arcana
but we do fail on such expectation but i have seen somewhere that they would be adding out later on?

Snip.
The concept of a state is very complicated if the resources it has are inadequate. The United States is a large country that controls many things and perhaps the comparison of the United States with a country that is experiencing bankruptcy is not balanced. Sri Lanka, which is located on the Asian continent, for example, is in huge debt with China and is almost unable to pay now, there are many factors that have brought this country into big problems after being in debt. The concept of a state is not easy, especially if they rely on debt to build infrastructure.

Printing more money is also not a solution because it will suppress inflation and if the reason for printing more money was a solution for all countries, then it would be quite easy for countries to get out of debt. In reality, it is not as easy as imagined and countries that do not have a clear vision with the support of certain sectors will actually make them more problematic. It is difficult to reach the stage that the United States has done because not many countries are able to do what they have done.
I think it's a little strange that a superpower country like the United States is included in the list of countries that have debt. The United States has everything and is one of the developing countries, very different compared to Sri Lanka and other small countries. America's income per year is very large, many of their products are imported abroad, they should be free from debt if you look at their annual income from various sources.

Printing more money will further increase the problem, the amount of money printed exceeding market needs will cause very high inflation, the prices of goods and services will increase, resulting in people's lives becoming increasingly squeezed. The government needs to reorganize the way finances are managed, in fact they can reduce the amount of debt if annual spending is on target. State officials must also be honest and free from corruption to save the country from the threat of increasing debt.
Here's some similar question and this would be the most realistic approach or response to that.

Why do rich nations continue to borrow even if they have the money? An advanced country may obtain debt to give its slowing economy an adrenaline shot. This allows for the continuity of government programs despite the decline in tax revenue due to recession.

As much as possible on which they would really be making use of those cash reserves to expand more on different industries on which means that if they do have the power on cashing everything or paying up
if they do have the plans but we know that there's no such thing about unlimited funds on which there's always that border line. For them to be able to expand then taking up some loan would be the key
on which country leaders wont really be that so dumb for them not to know about those basic things.

But this is not only the contributing factor to such early involvement in gambling but also if the kids find themselves or are exposed to a gambling environment, for instance, there was this lodge where I lived during my days at the University where there was this betting shop stationed in the front of the lodge, most of the growing kids around that area used to enter the shop to play visual games and that how the environment can influence kids too even without having their parents be a gambler.
Yes, it true that the environment a kid finds himself has a role to play in the formation of whichever lifestyle he finally adopts as he grows up, but yet that doesn't mean the influence a kid will get from the environment could be compared to that which he/she could get from his/her immediate parent he/she is staying with and looks up to daily, which is the main reason why thou other factors could have a role to getting a kid addicted to gambling, but he learning it from his parents will end up creating a Pro addicted gambler, and as such should be discourage.
What both of have said is very correct because at some point,  one can easily influence any little kids that fine themselves around us have hard a personal experiences of this on several occasions,  one was when my little elder brother son bath the way I use to bath simply because I use to bath together with the boy just for fun,  not knowing that the little one is gradually learning that from me,  I was surprise when one day I discovered that pattern from him.

So since that incident, I become very concerned about what I do when kids are around,  so gambling in front of the kids is what I will never do in no condition,  so we have to take a lot of consideration for this discussion because just like I mentioned in my earlier comment,  we can be right sure that some activities and games we play as family also unknowingly will be introducing gambling to the kids although on a low key level.
Everything that been seen by our kids specially to the things that we are really doing then it would really be considered to be right or something that it is really that will be put up into their minds that it is really just that fine that they would really be also doing it since they have seen that their parents are really doing that also. We do know that there are really things which arent supposed to be seen by our children specially that they do easily be able to adapt on things on what they are seeing and it would really be a risky thing if they have seen about gambling then this is where curiosity will kick in and might be resulting into those hidden access even if you arent that around and this is why it would be important that there should really be a private time on the moment you are making or doing gambling because its never been that good to look at if children would really be expose to it. If ever you get caught on such scenario then explaining to them on what you have done and making out some advises that you shouldnt really be doing on what you are doing or making up some warnings
that dealing with it is never been that safe. Just make sure that it do only happen one time and wont really be ending up on a rampant manner because advises would really be that useless if they do still continuing
on seeing on what you are really doing.
679  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading or investment! What's your take? on: September 27, 2023, 08:50:51 PM
I am not good at anything but I have just learned through experience and stay on the market.

Trading is a difficult task, and only a well-experienced trader can do it, so people who do not have experience and knowledge should prefer investing over trading.
And those people that have done trading but they think that they can't do it and they're just making losses instead of profit should prefer investing. It's not a problem if you're not good in trading when you're making profits but it's not a temporary problem that will be made. You'll have that time that you will see yourself that you're going to loss and you'll have that tough time to recover when you're not good at it. So much better to put that money into investing and let it grow on its own over the period of time.
Indeed, by investing it will be easier to do so, but for those who want to do trading as their main job there is nothing wrong, but you need to know that you can learn until you have good knowledge about trading. Trading has a greater level of risk than investing, therefore we should not only judge it in terms of profits, but we must also consider the risks so that we don't regret it later.
According to the market you have to decide whether you will trade or invest. We need to have a good understanding of both trading and investing so that we can do the right thing at the right time according to the market. Whenever you feel that long term investing is better than trading then you should definitely invest instead of trading. Again trading is a better decision than investing when the market fluctuates naturally so you must be more focused on trading at that time. 

If you think you will do investment and trading together then that is totally up to you which needs good amount of financial support. If there is good financial support you can invest in any one coin for a long time and carry out your own trading activities in all other coins.

In my opinion investing is not difficult for a newbie, just a little knowledge about market and coins is required. If one only knows what is bear season and bull season. Even if a newbie doesn't know about a good and strong project, he can choose a few good coins from the top 100 coins in the market.

While this is not the case in trading.Trading cannot be done with one or two years of experience or by watching various YouTube videos or getting information from social media platforms. Trading requires a lot of experience. You need at least 7 to 10 years of experience in my opinion. Investment and trading, they are two different things with different requirements.As easy as you think investment and trading are the same, it is not so easy.

In my opinion, for long-term investment, instead of one coin, your capital should be divided into different coins, so that the loss rate can be minimized.
7-10 years is already that too exagerrated on which i would really be definitely be saying that 1-2 years should be an enough window for you to be able to have that right experience towards this market and it would really be depending or varying on how serious and how many hours you've been dealing with trading and its true that learning could really be acquired through real experience and not just on reading up some books or seeing some youtube video or simply it is something that you could really only gain with your own experience towards it. Somewhat having that a decade kind of engagement is really just that too much of a standard. If you do last up that long then this do indicates that you are really that doing well with trading because you wont really be lasting up for couple of years if you arent seeing something progressive towards your career path.
Trading or investment? It would really be your choice to make but if you could really be able to handle both then why not as long you do know on how to manage your finances and could be able to sustain
for long then it would really be an advantage for you to deal up both things which we know that it could potentially bring up profits and income if you do it well.
680  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casino features you like and Don't like but you don't mind on: September 27, 2023, 07:53:31 PM
So you have been a gambler for at least 1year. Before Covid, you were a regular at the physical casino in your locality. You gambled with fiat. But when Covid hit, you discovered online casinos. You didn't need to gamble with fiat anymore but with cryptocurrencies. You tried out many online casinos but finally settled for one or two. There's no perfect casinos but you have stuck with this one occasionally trying out new casinos as advertised on the forum or out there but you still return to your favorite casinos. What are the features in your favorite casinos that you like that makes you keep going back and what are the features that you don't like at your favorite casino but you overlook them and still play there?
The reasons are;

- Good variety of games offered
- I do have the chance on editing their withdrawal fee
- Good and active support
- Tons of promotions and bonuses
- Site design
- Overall ambiance even if we do speak about online casinos

Each person does have their own preference because not all would be sharing up with the same sentiment basing up on what things they are currently involved with.
Some may like on what you like but some wouldn't and this is where we could really be able to see that choices would really differ on each other.
Speaking about lapses or those con's then i dont mind much as long i do able to play and having that smooth experience then this what matter the most.
I might be testing up some new sites if it do looks catchy but staying up right away is unlikely, there would be still lots of factors and considerations which
needs to be checked out first.
