1081  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 5 Bitcoins to never gamble again. Will you take it? on: August 01, 2023, 07:10:44 PM
As for me personally, I would accept it without any hesitation since 5 BTC could enable me to start my own gambling site and potentially make a great business with it and it would lead me for sure to additional income.
Honestly, that's a small amount to start with if you want to have your own gambling site established. But yes, that amount could be enough to start with but as you progress and make the website better, you'll need more funds for it because the longer you stay, the more customers you need to cater and that's going to cost you more. As long as it grows, for sure that you'll get more additional income but it's not going to be easy as you may think. And for one to quit with that payment, it's one of the best deals that one can take. So if it ever happens, whether someone gives you a capital or not and you're able to make it happen, good luck.

Guys, have you seen the injury of Jeremiah Gray? Just looking at it makes me feel the pain. For those that have missed that, here's the news about him from spin.ph.
(https://www.spin.ph/basketball/pba/ginebra-coaches-in-hospital-to-check-on-jeremiah-gray-injury-a793-20230730)

He's shouting in pain. Hopefully, it's not a career-ending injury, same with you just, by looking you'll feel the pain. Though with the advance technology and he's still young the chance of curing that injury might still be possible, it's really unavoidable when playing, even it's just an On-Tour game, players are doing their job to entertain the fans and they are really trying to bring that enjoyment.

Looking with that play, you would think that it is just a simple miss step doing that side euro step but when he fell down and shouting with pain, that replay will let you see that it's not an ordinary mistake but his feet did not follow properly that side step that he's planning to do, ending with this hard fell and an injury.
That's really something that needs a long time for recovery. Looking at how painful it was looks like a career-ending injury. But I just wish that he gets better. This was a tough time for him and this is also a lesson learned for him.

The PBA tour is now over, so there won't be much action to witness going forward, except for the international games.

Speaking of international games, what do you think about Coach Yeng's statement?

Guiao admits tough task ahead for RoS in Jones Cup

Quote
THE pressure may be on, but Rain or Shine coach Yeng Guiao vows to bring the same gung-ho spirit the team has been known for when it represents the country in the 42nd Jones Cup.

"Tingnan natin. I feel baka maka-disgrasya tayo ng ilang teams doon," said Guiao about the Elasto Painters' campaign in the August 12-20 meet at the Taipei Heping basketball gymnasium.


By his statement, it looks like he doesn't feel that ROS will be competitive enough in the Jones Cup.
That's just Yeng being Yeng. But I am sure that he's pretty much prepared for it when it has started.

So I'm just curious, why was ROS chosen to represent our country in that league if they are not capable of winning?
Maybe because that they're just the available team to say yes? I don't know.

Primarily less than a year before Bitcoin halving as the price fluctuation indicates the time for its next all-time high. Bought 1 bitcoin now at $28K and should be able to make more than double in late 2025 usually around September to November if the pattern repeated. Time flies imperceptibly, many companies will invest in bitcoin and the price could rapidly rise more than $200K, just be patient for the time to come and secure your bitcoin.
Don't time the market and don't also expect a lot. That's much better to do than to be said but I'm also bullish although I don't want to set a lot or a huge expectation if it's about the price of Bitcoin after the halving. I do have an idea on how it goes typically and that's no secret for everybody. As for all of us including OPs plan of getting that profit during the bull run is a must and we shouldn't miss that this time. $200k is possible and could even be higher. But this time, I wouldn't expect a lot just as how many have expected that Bitcoin will reach $100k on 2021's bull run and it didn't happen.

The FTX collapse make many people lost their assets in the cryptocurrency exchange in one way or the other, which most future trader's was liquidated on the position as the market bleed heavily.
Actually, it's not just with the FTX collapse but also with other exchanges that have fallen.

Base on that, keep your crypto exchange is not really safe because anything can happen at anytime, if FTX can collapse, which other crypto platform can do that one day, and for holding a coin is good to spread your asset for a better position.
It's not advisable to keep your funds on exchanges. With FTX and other collapse, this gives the idea that we shouldn't be too confident trusting them our funds. If you're a regular user of an exchange and of course, it's no longer with FTX even if they have comeback as said in the news. You only need to deposit with the amount that you're fairly okay to lose with. But if you're an active daily trader, you know that everything can happen with your fund so, it's either you lose more or earn more. But never ever entrust them if you're thinking of keeping it in the long term.

Mag lalaunch ako ng bagong plataform, base sa token. kong walang token no transakyon. Halimbawa: kong hihiram ka ng pera at may token ka pwede ka humiram base sa token na hold mo. maglagay din ako ng website lahat ng transakyon dadaan sa website KYC. mag lagay din po ako ng gateway payment.
Ito ba yang isang project mo na naipost mo na? Kung yan pa rin yun, dami mo ng ginawang thread para dun kabayan. Pero kung ibang website at project yan, ipost mo nalang din pati yung website niya. Tingin ko ideya palang yan at gagawin mo palang no? At dahil nabanggit mo na agad yung KYC tungkol diyan, may mga users na ayaw talaga sa KYC.

iN TERMs kailangan mo ng PERA may malalapitan ka. . . pwede kayo mag comments or mag suggest.
Interesting siya kahit na madaming lending platform na nandiyan na. Ito namang idea mo kapag nag materialized ay maganda dahil may collateral ng crypto pero hindi na siya bago dahil meron na yan dito sa forum natin.

Kapag nai-post mo na publicly ang iyong email address, expect mo na maraming mag eemail sayo na kung sino sino lang na mga scammer at random attemps para lokohin ka. Tama at salamat sa paalala mo itong kabayan kasi kahit wala ka sa crypto, maaari kang mabiktima ng mga scammer na yan na nangongolekta ng mga email addresses tapos saka nila bobombahin ng mga scam emails yung mga kawawang posible nilang mabiktima. Ako dati wala pa sa crypto market at mahilig mag signup kung saan saang mga website at nagugulat nalang ako may mga random email na kesyo may pera daw silang papadala at may nawawala daw akong pera at need ko daw i-click iyong link. Naalala ko din may nireplyan pa nga ako na may milyon dollars daw ako at need ko daw mag bigay ng 50 dollars at ang sabi ko, i deduct nalang sa total amount haha. Pero sa kabutihang palad hindi pa ako nabiktima ng mga yan.

I'll never do that even if I really need money. While there will be desperate people that will do it, there are some that are even complying and sending their KYCs to unknown projects and undetermined ones if there's a future or success of it. Technology today can do anything and that's why they're asking for the iris because they have a scanner on it and they'll for sure keep a copy of it and will use it for something else. Yes, maybe AI or there could be even more but you're right OP that it's possible that they can also use it for illegal things, and what if the authorities have found out that your iris was used for one of it and you can do anything with it because you've just sold it to them through an airdrop and a few bucks. That's why it is not going to happen to me, call me paranoid or what but everyone is sharing the same sentiment regarding this thing from worldcoin. They're still in hype and popularity and that's why I think it is timely that they've announced that for more attention.
1088  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: July 31, 2023, 04:11:14 PM
Portland is holding all the cards here IMO. They are not going to do a trade unless it makes sense for them as a business. I'm sure they are keeping Dame and his wishes in the back of their minds, but unless a team sends an offer that makes sense for Portland moving forward, Dame will be a Trailblazer next year.
True, at the end of the day this is all about business and what's going to be profitable on Portland's side and what Miami sees being part of them. And if nothing happens with any deal that's being offered to Portland then Dame remains to be one of them.

Since the Denver Nuggets is the defending champion, all the NBA teams are mostly working on how to beat them and one of the contenders that will gonna surely compete with the Denver Nuggets this upcoming season is the Boston Celtics because they cannot afford to lose the chance again and again when they are few wins away to get that championship. surely they will gonna be different this upcoming season and they will gonna improve their play in order to secure every win to get back in the NBA playoffs and have a higher chance to get the NBA championship as well.
Most of them will have the need for a big man if they're looking to Nuggets. But the game isn't just all about the big men and they've just recognized how it is really a huge advantage if a team has got one. Not just about the natural height advantage but also not a sloppy one and upgraded with shooting skills.
1089  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Dogecoin (DOGE) on: July 31, 2023, 02:53:18 PM
Is DOGE Coin's Rise a Sign of the Future of Cryptocurrencies, or a Fleeting Internet Meme Phenomenon?
Crypto has risen a long time ago thanks to Bitcoin. It's not a sign of the rise of crypto but it's a sign that there are still people that believe in meme coins. Well, can say that Dogecoin could be or couldn't be an exception but since you are able to mention the fleeting meme craze then that could be it. If it's not for Dogecoin then there will be no shiba coin, pepe, and other inu coins that have been made due to the fact that many investors have followed them a lot for the bull run. Let's say that the craze was totally big during those times but it's also dried up during the bear market so many investors have lost their grip with those types of projects that have been proliferated by that season. And if there will be remaining meme coins in the market, many will not have any single doubt with the one that they're going to choose and that's Doge.

1091  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: July 30, 2023, 03:23:11 PM
It gonna be a matter of time until we see some real updates about his transfer or if there will really be a transfer being allowed by the Blazers. This is taking so long honestly.
So it's like that letting Dame give some statement and then later on, the league itself does want to fine him if he does continue to say on which team he wants to play.

Regarding about Dame's trade talks that are still going on up until this point in time, I don't think that the NBA itself is actually serious about that warning they issued towards Dame and his agent instead they are just putting some pressure to make the trade happen because it's taking too long to be honest.
Really? I don't think that they'll release some statement like that if they're not serious. Maybe you're right and they are not really serious at all and that's why they're just putting them like an expedite decision to make this trade happen as in everyone and every team is looking and giving an eye on it.

Aside from that, it got me thinking that what if the Portland Trail Blazers doesn't want the trade? That they are just assuming that they are interested towards it, like this and that, but in the first place, they are just making an announcement that Dame wants it but it is the franchise who doesn't want to let go.
We don't really know if they don't want that trade to happen since with all of the publicity stunts that they're giving about this potential trade. Possible that they just want to get rid of Dame and want to take as much as trade in return for him. Well, I've seen people that are just sick and tired of this and telling that he's overrated.
1092  Economy / Economics / Re: Should I Use Emergency funds or Sell my Assets ? on: July 30, 2023, 12:00:04 PM
Use your emergency funds that are there for this specific purpose.
Lucky or it ain't luck for those people that have planned well to have emergency funds. While many are living paycheck to paycheck, those that are able to save for emergency funds knew what they're up to and the future is unforeseen.

Because if you sell your asset at the moment when the market is not looking good, you might end up losing your potential profit in the future.
Not bad if he's in profit and he can sell those assets but it's not really a perfect timing if the market doesn't look good at all.

As far as inflation is concerned, it is hitting everyone hard and has shaken the budget of every individual.
On the other hand, it's why many sell their assets during this time because everything has went up and they're coming up with this solution because that can be the only solution they have. But as long as you have an EF, that's all you need to use until it's not enough.
1093  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Who else uses move to earn apps for the same reasons I do? on: July 30, 2023, 08:34:52 AM
I am sure that there are many that are looking forward to this concept. But, just because of those early projects that have the same concept and failed, I don't think that many don't want to dive in anymore with such projects. I also remember that project where they were selling shoes since it was required for their walk to earn algo but I think that didn't become a thing anymore because it was like NFT shoes as required. These things have been good during the hype but not anymore today. So, if there are projects like what you're optimistic about. I am just telling you that everything is possible so that it won't hurt you a lot and won't be painful if ever you see that it's not doing well.

Move 2 earn projects are still in their nascent stage. If my memory serves me right STEPN which was the birth of the concept started about two years ago with GMT making some impressive run for the early birders but it's important we understand M2E project ain't primarily focused on profit making but encouraging healthy living. Trading them could be the play or perhaps buy to hodl cos they are still nascent and needs time to fully develop and also I think more awareness is needed to also encourage adoption.
Exactly that was the name of the project that I am trying to remember, the STEPN. They've been successful not until the bear market comes. We do have the idea that whatever project that becomes successful, if the bear market arrives, they'll be stomped and will be forced to be back to their usual form.

Come on, let's hear it! Am I the only one on this wacky and wonderful adventure? 😆

Oh yeahhh I get you. Actually I really did take part in those other M2E projects you talked about but I somehow have a feeling that this could be better and this is why I think so. It is a  product of Staika which currently is having a good price trend and most especially is getting listed on Bitget. Somehow I think this will rub off positively on this particular project. Don't you think so too? Or either way I still get to keep fit even though I hate it 😂😂
I have no idea yet with it but you know what's better for you and how you do check these projects. Basically, it came from you so you have all the idea if this is going to be the good one that you're looking for since you're probably invested on it. Anyway, good luck with this project and if ever you'll venture into other m2e projects.

There is a misconception about AI because of how quickly in spreads the word through the internet, social media, messengers and etc. People do also worry that these AIs are going to replace jobs which could be true but they don't look at the part that it can also generate new opportunities and even jobs. What's scary are those movies in which people think that someday these will come robots and they'll take over the world and then they'll make us a slave. Those fantasies and disbelief have been always there thinking that everything is possible with AI. What people have to analyze and recognize is that this technology is going to make tasks easier and will make someone who uses it more productive.

And he'll get a lot of it and he needs to take a lot of time in checking each of them. Start on this section and go through them one by one.
Correct. He just had to search these forums and try one casino at a time until he could find what he wanted. If he's just asking questions and not doing research, he may end up signing up at the wrong casino or one that isn't what he's been looking for.
He's grown up, he can understand reviews and for sure that's easy for him to figure out those reviews that are legitimate and can sense those that aren't genuine.

most of the old gambling casino still has running campaign and services right here so why not try those if you get doubt with the newly casino,
This is the easiest metric for those who are having a hard time finding a casino to gamble. Those reputable ones have their respective campaigns and they won't just fund their big campaigns if they wanna waste money. And it's easier for them to get into support because the brand that they've seen advertising will have them covered so that it will reflect to them as a good casino that do cater their customers properly.

While this guy can go free and lone everywhere where he wants to go after those charges will be dropped against him. Is there any other court that will have no benefit from these people that have been giving them a favor and are for the favor of the people and its victims? And potentially when Sam and the other that's involved with this issue could just rinse and repeat the process and will just hide under someone's name trying to build a new scam exchange or project that they will work on.

According to Shams the NBA has warned Damian Lillard and his agent that if they make any more comments about Damn only wanting to play for the Miami Heat then they would be, “subject to discipline.” I think this shows that Portland isn’t exactly set on sending Dame where he wants to go. Dame ending up unhappy on an obscure team might be the surprise of the offseason.
I guess they're just tired of seeing and reading those statements that they're too vulgar on where Dame wants to go together with his agents. Honestly, these trades should have just been kept private until it's done but anyway. These are also where these personalities are earning through the info that they release to the public. It seems that this trade hasn't happened yet.
The league made Dame release a statement saying he would give any team he plays for his full effort. Know info Damian Lillard I’m sure that’s true. Still, it’s funny that he had to release a statement to avoid getting himself caught up in fines. I question whether the league will let him go to Miami. It has Chris Paul to the Lakers vibes.
It gonna be a matter of time until we see some real updates about his transfer or if there will really be a transfer being allowed by the Blazers. This is taking so long honestly.

And with that, I still think that they can make history, and we will forget that this happen to Bronny. And as per report, he was discharge already with a clean bill of health. Maybe him being still young help in the recovery very sooner than expected.
Good that he's already been discharged. Because with things happening to him, it's going to be bad thing if he don't recover too quick. His family got the money so medication isn't going to be problem until he's able to recover very well.

It seems, this year will be full of memecoins. What do you think?
Not meme coins but more with AI projects.

Why memecoin launching is increasing so much in this year?
It's because of the investors that have stuck their minds into meme coins that will skyrocket on the bull run. People can't get over with the past that most of the meme coins have made a lot of money and that's why everyone is still on it. Up to what you believe if they're still a thing this time or not but as much as you want to get into these meme coins. Be sure that you know what you're investing because most of them are plain pump and dump tokens and that's no escape if you have already bought a random meme coin in dexes and cexes that you are not aware of.
