It is easy to remember when we know Bitcoin but the problem is that it was too late we realized how valuable is this as we are too negative about it on the day we heard about this. Maybe, if during that time the first time we encounter the name Bitcoin and started to buy this, I can't really imagine what gonna happen to us after. It is just remembering the past how we make the wrong decision like ignoring Bitcoin but of course, I feel no regrets because that is really how we deal with new things.

Well, I see nothing. It will just affect on Twitter management, not the crypto market.

Oh, I really see how social media influence the market trend but never I think this would touch crypto. I couldn't think how Elon Musk use this to manipulate the market and the minds of crypto investors. If there is a pump or dump happen in Bitcoin a few days from now, I'm sure this is not because of this but something which really connected to the market.

i'm rooting for Chocolatito to win, I think he is more technical so he will likely win this fight. it's a trilogy that but I'm not so excited on this one as it's not the same as the other trilogy where the fight was really close. Well, I might be wrong, but I see this fight to end up a one sided fight only, that's in favor to Chocolatito.

The majority of us here picked Chocolatito, but it could be a new fight if one of them shows something new here, the first two-fight was dominated by Chocolatito many thought he wins the match, this is what happen the fight was left in the hands of the judges, I have seen so many controversial fights and this one is included, I hope this time they picked the right judges and the winner deserves his win, there could be no fourth fight between the two, they just need to pick the right set of judges
Yeah, there will be no 4th fight if Chocolatito will win this fight, it's better if he could just KO Estrada so judges decision is not anymore necessary. Estrada is a very aggressive fighter, with a great timing, I think Chocolatito could finish him. Lots of good fights this coming December, hopefully I'm wrong with my prediction so somehow could I could enjoy this fight.

They are both important in the market (just for me).
If you just think that both of them give us the opportunity...
 - Bear market - accumulation period
 - Bull market - selling period

They actually exist on the market and this is how the market looks like. In fact, this is not only happening in the crypto market but also in others like in the stock market.
1566  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Fernando Martinez vs Jerwin Ancajas rematch - Oct.8 on: October 03, 2022, 11:49:01 AM
Looking forward to Jerwin Ancajas being in good condition in this fight. The preparation time is well enough for him to be in a state like that. Martinez on the other hand is also the same. He already knows the drill and he will just do the same strategy against Ancajas.

If Ancajas will lose this rematch, it's clear that he really can't come close to the power of Martinez.

But he was able to deal with Martinez power in the first fight, it's that he was really outgun by looking at the numbers. Which mean he didn't let his hands go and allow Martinez to control the fight. So I will say that Ancajas has more power than Martinez, but he needs to land that and not just hesitant to pull the trigger.

But in any case they have seen their mistakes that's why they activated the rematch clause already, expect a different Jerwin to really push Martinez and I wouldn't be surprised if he is successful this time.

I don't know if he has more power than Martinez because he was the one who was so tired in that fight, and he was not able to hit Martinez with the heavy shots. He lose his stamina in short, that cannot happen again if he wants to win, as he needs to convince the judgest that he was the one controlling the fight.

Adelaide 36ers won against the Phoenix Suns in their first preseason.
Wow! Craig Randall II scored an enormous 35 points showing some great skills to the crowd.

What a shame for a title contender to be defeated on that match but this will be good to their organization to know their lapses because having that bad run together with team outside NBA is needed to be correct by their management.

There is nothing to be ashamed of. It is only a preseason game. At most, it is just a warm-up and to see how the new members of the roster will play and iron kinks in their play before the regular season starts.

Exactly, it's not a serious one, it's just an exhibition game.

I also love how Sotto played, he scored a double-digit and was effective on the court.
Well, actually 39ers played with good teamwork compared to the Sun, so they deserved that win, but then again, it's just preseason, not a serious game.
1568  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: October 03, 2022, 09:48:15 AM

Yeah, good job on how he performed. Ginebra is using him just the way that he has been taken by them, a good catch as usual by Ginebra. On Wednesday, it's exciting, Bay Area Dragons versus SMB.

Finally, let see if how the defending champ will take pride against the visiting team. Though it's just the meeting but if I remember it right the format is a single round so it's a must win for them, I would love to see how my favorite team will impress us, the fans are surely waiting for this moment to see if the Dragon is really tough as they are showing according in their current standing.

It's SMB debut so expect to see exciting flows coming from the heavyweights, joking here. It's the PH team against China hahaha..

It is SMB's first game of the conference. They will be a bit rusty coming from a long break. Other teams also started rusty.

It will be a challenge starting the conference with the unbeaten Bay Area Dragons. But since they are coming from a championship, they will be up for the challenge. They also have a few games to properly scout the Dragons. That is their distinctive advantage over the Dragons. They should be able to capitalize on that.

There are no odds out yet, but I am guessing the Dragons are slightly favored in this match up. No matter what, I will be taking the side of SMB though. I trust them to pull a win on this one.

It's a big challenge for the SMB, if I will see a good odds for Bay Area Dragons, I might bet on this team.  If SMB has Fajardo, this Bay Area Dragons team also has a big which is even taller than Fajardo. I like to see a competitive game, but if Bay Area Dragons will only be a favorite by -3.5, I might take that.

Here we go, we will not see the last game of the day.

Ginebra vs Ginebra, both teams lose in their previous matches, but I'm seeing here that Ginebra is going to bounce back strong, so I'm backing them to win. Right now, they are -3.5 to win, and since it's Sunday, I hope the crowd will be able to help them.

Brownlee vs O'bryant, it's a great matchup, A bigger O'bryant vs Brownlee, but for sure Brownlee will not back down. It's nice seeing this competitive teams playing against each other. Ginebra had a good lead early but Meralco is catching up I think it's going to be a close game.

Anyway, good luck on your bet, that's doable.

I'm watching the game now, it's very entertaining and I'm liking it because Ginebra is still ahead. I know it's going to be a close game but all I like is for Ginebra to win by at least 4 points. Grin....

Waiting also in live, if Ginebra will be down by many points, I might take the ML as long as it's 3.00 and above.

This is a common thing, where scammers take advantage of the big and long-awaited moment to take advantage of the excitement of others and try to drain their wallets with the lure of giving big prizes. They try to imitate as much as possible to how to reply so that others do not suspect.
However, for people who are quite thorough with this will quickly realize that it is something deceptive, especially if the person is looking for information about the information in depth. Well, no wonder scammers try to imitate famous people out there to deceive others.
Perhaps, it was a very common and known trick but unfortunately, many people are still believing this one. Not that I see people are learning about scams even though it was already published online and spreading awareness. What I think is that they are still deceived by these scammers and all of those warnings are just absolutely gone once hearing things like this (huge giveaways).

100,000 ETH - you will be wondering why it happens and could ask yourself "if this is true? And then think about a possible scam.
1572  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do you use crypto trading robots? on: October 02, 2022, 07:29:33 AM
^Definitely right.
I don't know why people think that the automated trading bots made them a passive income which I think is only a tool that can be used in trading while you are away. The automated trading bot will not work without your proper command so if you don't have knowledge of trading, your bot is nothing.
On my own, I don't see any benefit of these automated trading bots, it is just wasting of money and additional cost which is it is good if you will put on your capital. If you are far away why not have a break in trading or spot trading much better for those traders who don't have enough time.
Bot have their own default settings which also states the previous success rate of that bot setting, probably this is one of the reason why many chooses Bot. We can't totally say it's useless or not effective not unless we already experience it, if we see at the top site that offers Bot trading, we can still a good numbers of users which we can conclude that it's effective and it's working based on their purpose. Trading bot might not be ok to us, but to some it works good for them.
I agree with that but I don't suggest this for newbies whose knowledge about crypto trading in not already good. I could say that those who found trading bots working are those who have a long experience in trading as well for they know how to set the buy and sell options and literally familiar with the market trend. It is very unlikely when you are new to this and have no experience in trading for certainly it really hard to do it. Learning the basics is not enough now, it needs something more than that.
1573  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Can whitepaper still shows the weakness of a project and their team on: October 01, 2022, 11:21:29 PM
Well OP, not totally the basis to say if that project or that whitepaper itself is the basis to say it was a scam project but if we can find out that is was a copy from other projects, it is pretty obvious that was a scam. But why there are so many people into scam projects? And that is because we all not bothered to read each whitepaper of all projects, that is why we don't know if that is a copy or not, or if there is a part of it that wasn't easy to remember.

It was not a weakness of the project but this serves us a hint that this project can't be trusted nor is worth trying for this is an indication of a questionable project.
1574  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will BTC reach 45k before this year ends. on: October 01, 2022, 02:05:45 PM
It is now the last quarter of 2022 , still Bitcoin is maintaining its position that is 19-20k .

what I wanna see now is that the small increase from October and till December .

and also I wanted to find profit before the year ends ? at least 30k the most.
In the 3 months left before the year-end, though it was not hopeless to see the price of Bitcoin reaching back to $45k and the chances are very slim. I'm not even thinking about it nor expecting a huge profit this year but at least I have some that I think it was good enough for this bear season. As I could see that is likely possible that we just end up this year at below $30k  as I was expecting some surge during the Christmas season but never this could totally uplift the price to the highest level. 
1575  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: October 01, 2022, 01:32:26 PM
The Lakers reported that they are still open to trade their future first round picks but they want long term returns. We are referring to their 2027 and 2029 future first round draft picks. The Lakers are giving a sign that they want a young high potential player that can carry the team when Bron and Davis are gone or old. No wonder all their previous talks to unload Russ and acquire any players from Kyrie, Clarkson, Hield, Turner and Bogdanovich ended in failures.

Does the Lakers 2027, 2029 first round drafts and Russ' $47 million payrate enough to acquire a young star potential like Mitchell?

Well that's why they are future picks, because we don't know if they are going to be a great player in the NBA. But it's risk that any team are willing to take though or maybe they have scouting teams as well looking for the next prospect in high school that will be the potential picks. So we will see, Russ is still a big problem in their shoulder right now, but they can't do anything about that huge contract and they might be willing to let Russ play this season.

He is not a big problem if the coach knows how to handle his players. Westbrook has been proven a superstar, he won an MVP award and was once a triple-double machine, and I don't think he already pass his prime, so let's give him a chance.
1576  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: October 01, 2022, 01:03:36 PM
PBA, where amazing rigging happens .  Grin
~snip~
Another day another 6min no score 0:17 run after controlling the game for 18min.

Lol, basketball is a game of runs and momentums, we should know that, and that 0:17 run happens almost in every league around the world not just in the PBA. I'm not convinced that PBA is rigged as there are no solid proofs of this accusation, all they have are hearsays.

47 to 51 is the score at the moment in favor of the guest team Bay Area Dragons, I think this will be close until the end so I'm going to take this option of Phoenix Fuel Masters +14.5 @1.8 now.


They do happen in every league, but in PBA they happen in almost every game, thats the difference.

PBA is where amazing happens, you should not be surprised, and you should not complain.. hehe.. just accept the fact that basketball is a game of run, and manipulation could happen anytime. As a bettor, our purpose is just to win our bet, so be smart in choosing which team will win.
1577  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Do Your Own Research - What Does it really mean on: September 30, 2022, 09:32:50 PM
Going back a bit, I once asked my professor what 'do your own research' meant and I got a pretty simple answer that made me think a little hard; it is "never invest in a business, but invest in the person/group that runs the business".
Here I understand that no matter how good and potential the business is, if those who manage it are not competent, the results will be bad. you also mention about community and that I think is true. a competent developer must be able to balance the community they work with and behave as professionally as possible.
Well, it was a part of the research and this is very important to verify the potentiality of the project before risking some amounts in it for this will give us some assurance. Like what you did is just simply knowing more about the project and this is how to asses if this project can be trusted or not. We are doing DYOR for the sake of not blaming others but just ourselves in case we fail. Because it is our money and therefore, we also know how to decide our own, not relying on other people.
1578  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Crawford vs Spence on: September 30, 2022, 12:30:11 PM
Nevertheless we have our own opinion and even if the odds are in Crawford's way, for sure there are bettors here who are going for Spence Jr because he has a good resume and tougher opponents.

I'm sure with that, I'm also thinking of a "DRAW", as both fighters are willing to win, they might be so good that they could stand until the end of 12 rounds. I'm thinking, maybe it will be the same scenario with Canelo vs GGG on their first fight, what do you think?
1579  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2020 Philippine Basketball Association betting discussion on: September 30, 2022, 12:04:11 PM
I'm sure they are already alarmed with what is happening, slowly the star players of the PBA are getting recruited outside, so if they will not act, they will be short of star players that would make the league exciting and that would help to represent the country in international games.
They are alarmed but they lack action to solve the problem they are facing. They are complaining that their players are being poached by other leagues, but they still continue the biased trading and favoring SMC or MVP teams.

Maybe they are not really afraid because PBA is still the most famous league in our country, and they do not have real competition yet. Maybe, when viewership of other leagues get stronger, then they will act on this problem. But by then, it might be too late for PBA.

What they are doing is the recipe for disaster, it's very obvious that these big team owners are controlling the league but the commissioner is not doing anything to stop it, why? because the commissioner is probably just a puppet of the big team owners.
1580  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: My thoughts and now my experience. on: September 30, 2022, 11:51:23 AM
Unfortunately, losses will always be inevitable in crypto, regardless of how high your experiences are. Good thing is every losses comes with a great lesson too, so we should still look at it with positivity. However, knowing that crypto is highly risky, then we should exert more effort to DYOR as it’s the best way to lessen the risk  and increase the chance to earn profits.

Realization is big factor for us to learn something from the mistake we do before we lose our money. And even if you are veteran on the industry still you are prone to lose because at the end no one can really actually point out accurately what will happen but for sure for the events goes and we meet it again for sure we can counter those loses and think about good things that can help us to earn or recover.
That is why instead of blaming ourselves due to our losses and for our mistakes, we make a habit to consider this as a way to improve ourselves. Because in reality, no one is perfect and you're right, even experts suffer losses for not all the time we made the right decisions. This is how the market looks like, people will just be about to commit mistakes in order to know that our strategies are wrong and take action for not occurring again but too unfortunate that it can't be perfect no matter what we do.
