2741  Economy / Speculation / Re: I hope this Bitcoin dip won't be deeper? on: November 10, 2022, 01:37:45 PM
If the situation continues, we cannot prevent such thing to happen. Some people say it has something to do with economic crisis we are all experiencing at the moment wherein investors are not as enthusiastic as before because they are worried of their daily living;leaving no money to invest, which is possible. So if you have an extra money, investing while its price is still 'deep' would be a good idea. But I won't suggest doing the same thing if you are struggling with basic needs.

2022 is not over yet so we can't say for sure that this year is bitcoin's worst year, because in reality bitcoin continues to struggle to restore value even though it is very difficult and not as fast as when it was hype in 2020 yesterday,
when you enter and invest you should know the biggest risk of this investment, with patience and persistence you will definitely get a profit
so don't worry about the decline because the bitcoin cycle has been confirmed for 4 years
Worst year? I doubt. Have you seen how low it became way back 2018? That was almost 2years of no movement in this market before it came back last year. Let us hope that this won't stay for that long. If you have assets decide which is to hold thriugh ups and downs because your decision would be crucial. If you're used of this kind of market nature (which we've experienced countless times) you know what to do.
2742  Economy / Economics / Re: Will you further your degree from school, or learn a new skill after college? on: November 10, 2022, 12:55:14 PM
Using what you've practiced and learn at school is just fine. Extending your capabilities and learning on other fields of interest is better. But either of the two would be fine. We're all different; some are school or book smart, and some are into skills or 'street smart'. What's important is how will you utilize it as an individual if you are seeking for success.
I believe it all depends on where you land after college.  If you are making a decent salary in your field, enjoy it, and getting an advanced degree will significantly increase your earning potential, then yes, I could see one further their degree from school.  If you aren't making money in your field and hate it, then I could see one learning a new skill.
What I have seen so far in my place is very few people who hate the field of lectures or schools they take when they want to go to college or school. Because it has been carefully considered the field they will take and they like before they apply to a particular campus or university or to a particular school. So there is no hate when someone has graduated in the field they have applied for before, although not all of them can immediately get a job after graduating from university or school.

I would say every place is different as from what I've seen over here are plenty of people that really hate their field that they went to college for, not all but quite a lot; culture can also play a role in this as well.

Many college graduates now find jobs unrelated to their courses; I believe this is due to the pandemic, and they desperately need to find work to help their parents.
Possible but my take on this is lack of experience with their chosen field. Indeed they have a degree, but there are just companies who are requiring years of experience. This pushes graduates to move in other fileds who will accept and trust them despite of having no experience at all. But that is indeed true;urgency to get a job because they're breadwinners. That's just how tough living is, nowadays. Pride would be swallowed dometimes in order to fill the tummy.
2743  Economy / Gambling / Re: The most trusted casinos on BTalk on: November 10, 2022, 10:26:08 AM
There's many trusted casinos in this forum, I would consider a trusted casino if they launch long term campaign, has a lot promotion, has active support and always solve any complaints, also the representative account in this forum didn't receive any red tag or flag.

So it will be Duelbits, Roobet, Rollbit, Sportsbet, Bitcasino, Trustdice, Fortunejack, BK8, Freebitco, Betcoin.ag and many more. I have try those webistes and their customer service is really great when I have a question or something that I want to ask.
I agree. Some people would say" platforms with have issues are not trusted" and such. Problems are innevitable that is there is always a room for improvement to almost everything. What would matter is how will the team or management react if there is something wrong or if there are complaints on their gambling site? Popularity and integrity are two different things. Some projects which are popular  does not last that long especially if they are not addressing problems or simply they are contented with popularity alone. What would make players stay, is the way they are being served for what they have paid for.

'coz if it is comparing different gambling site? There are many to choose from. But surely, only a few gives the quality such as solving UI, and lagging issues, Responding to problems regarding delayed transactions. These are definitely the best.
2744  Economy / Gambling / Re: What else should an established crypto casino add? on: November 10, 2022, 04:52:54 AM
So many coins already mentioned but I personally prefer adding two or three of the old coins like Doge and LTC. Why not do an initial poll in your community? Pick five of the top requested and have another round of voting. Maybe you could also make improvements on your reward structure to better serve both new and loyal players.
List of coins to be accepted in an established online casino is indeed a factor but there are others which are more important such as registration for it to be acknowledge not only by players but also non-gamblers. It would give credential to a gambling platform to support the label of being "established". This would be followed by the general security of online casino. Why haven't I mentioned about reqards, bonuses, and games being offered? 'coz that's the bare minimum and all of the online gambling casinos already have that. An established gambling platform would focus to important things other than those which are pleasing to the eyes of the gamblers, and that includes internal sectors of a platform.

What extra do you expect from a (somewhat established) crypto casino? A few aspects we can think of include:
- More crypto original games. Minesweeper and plinko, so we've heard, are getting trendy. Any more thoughts and would these interest you?
- More cryptos accepted as payment options. We currently support BTC, ETH, EOS, USDT and USDC. More has been requested - but will it make depositing easier for you? And which cryptos should we add, in your opinion?
- Additional features for our chat room?
And feel free to tell us anything else you really want!

Just push those aspects that the team thinks of and see the result for yourselves.

I believed being in the crypto-gambling industry for a long, you should already know what gamblers prefer, at least.

As long as you keep the service healthy and fair as the priority, that's what matters.


Being on this industry for a long period of time won't make you safe of shortcomings to the platform itself. Asking for opinions would be necessary in order to come up with a more diversed attack regarding improvement of the project or the gambling platform being talked about in this topic.
2745  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who are those people that you don't want them to know you are a gambler on: November 10, 2022, 04:25:31 AM
Everyone except for my fellow players simply because other people has nothing to do with this activity. If they will know, they would either assume things from me and make impressions on them such as I don't handle my money well. Some people might ask for things such as why, how and the likes which would cost me time explaining. The more you limit something, the better. Only gamblers would understand what you are doing in this industry.

Some gamblers keep their gambling activities secrete from people they have close relationship with. Having it in mind that if these people know they are gamblers,it might bring down their reputation or make them look wasteful. I hide my gambling activities from my Mom the reason is that she hates gamblers and calls them irresponsible people from her own perspective.

When we talk about gambling, casinos, or betting, people's first impression is that you are losing a lot of money, in debt, and addicted to it. I think it's because this is the news they usually see on TV about gambling. The reputation of a gambler is very unpleasant to those who don't understand it and only know the negative aspects of it. Also, mostly in religious countries, it is a sin to them, and I don't have any opinion. We respect that kind of tradition. For me, it is better to hide it than be criticized by others, and you can still share it with those who gamble, as they will understand us.
In my end, it is just an insult to explain myself from others because in the first place I'm not required to do so. People will just throw judgements right off the bat. Although there will be people who'll understand this activity, but seeking for them would be a different kind of story.
2746  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Lost today 2000 usd and quit gambling + lesson i learnt on: November 09, 2022, 02:24:45 PM
Well I don't think a real gambler will quit after he got a big winning, if your main intention to make money through gambling, you should learn gambling is only for fun. If you keep chasing money, you will either become an addict or an abuser since you're want to maximize anything to make profit. I've learn this after I got a good lesson where I become mad and don't want to interact with any people, when I become matured, I know gambling is for fun only,
It depends on what kind of a player you are. Like on my case, I do tend to take a pause after winning than to be carried away by emotion and eventually become greedy of winning more. But I agree, most of us won't quit right after winning because victory is often understood as possibility to again win, in this industry. Gambling is for fun? that is ideal but I'd bet 90% of the players are here to make profit, it is just that we have our own way of securing profit.
I agree with the OP, and if you leave and never come back after a few wins you got from a game of roulette, and I really admire you and if that happens for now or in the future.
because what I know is that the plan only happens for a moment or a few months, because most of them will play again after their winnings run low. And it is indeed the right decision to stop when you get a big win because there is still a lot of winning money, and over time the money will run out, unless you use it for business, investment or other things that make your money work
Taking a rest would be possible but totally quitting is not. Compare it to a vice (both are addictive). Although there are people who managed to quit instantly, for sure they had a hard time. And in most cases, as long as you deprive yourself of something, the more you'd crave or be hungry of it, and that is absolutely present in gambling industry as well.

Easy to say but hard to do.

Would be really tough once you are dragged into such addictive activity unless you'd desire of quitting and actually taking an action to stop that behavior.
2747  Economy / Economics / Re: friend I want to invest short term in bitcoin and crypto. to meet their living a on: November 09, 2022, 11:28:21 AM
Yes, but now's not the time because of the market behavior if OP and his friends are still new in this industry. Short term investments could be thru trading. There are sites and wallets wherein investors could earn profit by making technical analysis whether the price would fall or go up which generates profit on a daily basis but requires talent and hardwork on learning patterns. To sum it up, yes investing in short term is possible.


a friend of mine came to me and he asked, is it possible to invest in bitcoin and crypto for the short term,? which is to meet daily needs, and I am confused to answer because I am still a beginner in bitcoin and crypto. and I want to ask everyone about it?
So your friend asking out on investing on bitcoin and believe that he could get daily income or profit with it? The answer could be neither Yes or No.

Yes, on the sense that you could really make profits but you would be needing for you to be a day trader.Being profitable or being constant? This is where most people do try to do but majority
had been failed but there are actually people who do able to do so but of course only on few counts.

No, market is way too volatile and making yourself highly dependent on it would really be just creating that kind of desperation which is really
a very bad move to make.

Day trading makes a profit but not every day, I have never seen anyone who can consistently win in the market without losing even for top traders. Professional traders are just that their win rate is higher than their loss rate and as a result they are still profitable, but not every day they are profitable.
In this case, my advice would be no: don't view investing or trading as a job that can bring you a daily income even if you are a good trader. Be a person with a stable job and income before thinking about investing in bitcoin.
Losing is part of the process but that is correct;even big time traders suffer loss from day trading because the market price behavior itself is way too unpredictable. TAs are just guide but won't assure a constant movement. To people who aspire to be one of traders, invest in knowledge first in order to lessen the risk of losing or wait for a clear trend line on cryptos' market value or maket in general.
2748  Economy / Economics / Re: Always ask bargain for prices never pay full specially now on: November 09, 2022, 10:23:25 AM
Now it's time to ask prices to go Lower.
Times like this i go shop or anywhere i always say' it's economic down turn can i get cheaper price.
I allready called to my landlord to make my rent much cheaper.
It's times of economic bad times so now you can ask cheaper prices of anything always.

Not necessary to all of the things and also depends on your approach to them If you have a work, then your boss paid you less than you want your salary be, what would you feel? We are all fighting to survive, be fair. Indeed, if you would be able to buy something cheaper than thr amount it was introduced, it would be better but atleast, ask for it politely and don't demand them to decrease the price as if they are required to do so.

Now it's time to ask prices to go Lower.
Times like this i go shop or anywhere i always say' it's economic down turn can i get cheaper price.
I allready called to my landlord to make my rent much cheaper.
It's times of economic bad times so now you can ask cheaper prices of anything always.


I disagree with the word anything because you can't, yes some places you can negotiate and reduce the price but most of the basic needs like groceries, veggies, meat are fixed price everywhere even if its a roadside shop the price is fixed.
Yes , and these fixed prices has something to do eith utilities, rent of the building where market is placed, electricity they are using to make customers comfortable, while they are busy bargaining. Things has state of appropriateness do let us all be mindful.

If you guys are not that needy, just buy that thing in particular as it is. Let those who are in need to bargain for it.

Years pass, cycles pass, but nothing changes. Cheesy


I wonder how much longer it will take for people to realize that low prices are a CHANCE to buy, not some kind of disappointment. Instead of taking this chance, they are burying bitcoin. Instead of taking profits or enjoying an increase in the value of their assets, they start buying. They buy at the top of the market, and then they say that bitcoin is a pyramid scheme and a scam. Now I am talking to some people IRL, who are also interested in cryptocurrencies.

I ask: Have you already bought bitcoin?
Answer: No. I'll wait until he recovers.
Those people are basically in doubt and are not sure of its capabilities, but that's just fine. Your task is to share your knowledge about it and avoid forcing him to do so because he/she will just be pressured. That is only if that person you want to invest in Bitcoin, is important to you but if not just let them be because you'll take the blame everytime the market value falls. Same thing happened to me way back 2017 wherein a friend of mine asked where I invested my money then I shared this technology towards him. I also discussed the risked but what he saw only is profit; he disregarded possibilities of losing. When thr market crashed he was mad at me because he thought that I fooled him. We never spoke to each other again. He also chose to liquidate.

Last year when its msrket value broke the ceiling, I saw him posting stuffs LOL.
2750  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will cryptocurrency replace other currencies? on: November 09, 2022, 08:53:27 AM
Impossible on my point of view. Cryptocurrencies are not even widely accepted around the globe as a mode of payment. Also, it is decentralized and free of taxation and it happened that most  of the governments are not into these characteristics edpecially for a currency. Using Third party wallet would still use fiat which means that it won't be totally replaced by this technology.  Also, the market value of cryptos are naturally volatile which is a downside especially for non-investors. There's even a higher tendency for these two systems of currencies to co-exist with one another.

I have no idea if FMCpay will be popular or can replace other dominating currencies, but I do believe that a new promising cryptocurrency that delivers have high possibility to replace other cryptocurrencies of their ranking and functionality.  Besides, the cryptocurrency industry is like a battle or competition where the fittest survive.

If that happens I think the process is also not easy and will take a very long time,
but I still have the opinion that crypto can't replace the current currency,
we'll see what the future will be like because we certainly don't know what will happen next

Not really a long time, the cryptocurrency market and ranking as of to date aren't that stable, meaning it isn't set in stone that is hard to change or modify.  It is all about market performance and community building.  If the new cryptocurrency has the capability then it will obviously replace other cryptocurrencies even in a short span of time.

Cryptocurrency cannot replace fiat, even if it could. Fiat belongs to the states, and in the states there are a lot of ways to protect their currency from any encroachment. Therefore, as long as states exist, their national currency will also exist. Cryptocurrency should strive to occupy its niche in the global financial system and coexist peacefully with fiat states. That's the only way she can survive.

True that, and that is the reason why cryptocurrency aim is to be an alternative option.  But somehow, if all the countries recognize Bitcoin as a legal tender then it can possibly compete against state currency.

But how would it be possible and is it even competing included on its ourpose? It is enough to use it as an alternative and using it as an investment is huge bonus.



2751  Economy / Economics / Re: Do your work. on: November 09, 2022, 08:21:27 AM
This is what I recently discovered unfortunately, all these years working and I couldn't get savings to serve me on retirement, I was working as an employee in a government company with a paltry salary, so after I started working on Crypto I quit my government job, I am now working my own business and doing By investing in cryptocurrencies and when I get good profits I buy and store gold, paper money loses its value every day so I keep my assets in the form of cryptocurrencies and gold because their value increases over time.
Good for you then. But keep in mind we have different  circumstances or situations in our lives. Some people in my country have already a family at an early age which deprives them from making selfish and risky decisions. Reponsibility slows down an individual from unleashing his/her potential but that responsibility as well pushes him/her to continue whenever one is exhausted so it is not actually a real thing. I'm not saying that once you have a family, that's the end already. No. You will just be limited in resources in some instances, so if you really want to do something, you'd really invest more time to get it without disregarding your responsibilities.

And for those who has privilege and those who are still young, be mindful. Be mindful of your potential and maximize it as long as you have the time still, 'coz as you grow older opportunities would be smaller and harder to reach.
2752  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Importance of not letting others know about your crypto holdings on: November 09, 2022, 07:16:57 AM
You may share it to those people who you really want to share it with ,that's just simple but avoid sharing your 100% asset. There's no need to show everything because it will just put you at risk; of being borrowed from or killed. These possibilities are no joke and has tendency of occuring especially if that's the wrong person whom you shared it with. Keep in mind that money talks and money is a powerful piece of paper. Just know the limits or lose everything, you choose.

The rules of the game are quite clear in this space, "you're the sole determinant of the extent to which your privacy is maintained". However, because some people think that wealth is a pride that must be shown, they don't pay much attention to it, especially since the crime rate isn't too high in their area.
They know their thing. If they really want to brag it they might be expecting something from other people which is for others to envy him/her(just an example, it could also be an inspiration but this is more likely to happen). If there is awareness on the risks, then he must be okay with consequences.
2753  Economy / Economics / Re: Do you like commission job or salary base job? on: November 09, 2022, 06:21:18 AM
Depends on your needs as an individual. If you are into stable income then go with salary baded job and if not, go olthe other way around. Commission-based job would really give you huge amount of money but the problem is; you won't get commission on a daily basis. Perhaps on apratments; an gent could get a commission each time a new tenant will rent the facility but it won't happen on a daily basis right? And there are time that no outputs are tasked to you which means you will not earn any commission for that day/month. On the other hand, salary based won't be that huge but constantly going to your account which would lessen your worry in times of emergency.

Commission jobs really pays well over most of salary base job especially if the work is continusly and projects are always on long-term based. But the reality here is, only those who acquired a good portfolio and skills are those who actually feel the big benefits of doing a commission job.

On the other hand, salary based job are mostly pays with average salary. Only professionals with such good skills are bound to be eligible on a much higher salary rate.

We really need to work wise and hard to achieve that high paying salary.

You are right, but in a commission job, you just need to be persuasive enough for customers to make a purchase from you, and you can also earn more from it than a salary-based job. Usually, in a commission job, they can earn enough money to last three months, which is good, but the problem is that it is not always the case because there are months when you have no earnings, so it is not secure, unlike a salary base, where you are already sure that you'll get a salary by the end of the month, but again, it is extremely difficult to get an increase because you need more experience or spend more years to get a promotion.
if we want to grow financially, then I think the commission system work will be better done. let's say we are marketing properties, the more properties we can sell, the higher our income will be, and that means our hard work is in accordance with the pay we get. if we are employees with a salary system, then we have to work hard but the salary remains stagnant, although sometimes many give company bonuses
Sales industry is not that easy. You need to work with your 'networks and connection' as an agent. Many people got rich because of this so called commission based jobs, but keep in mind that many people quit because of a reason. Figure it out.
2754  Economy / Gambling / Re: Poker tournaments why tournaments in other games on: November 09, 2022, 05:18:31 AM
A lot of poker game tournaments have been announced on this board over time, and am I kind of wondering what makes poker games so inclined to the tournament and we don't see such competitions being announced for other games?

The reason is simple. Poker is a game that is perfectly suited for tournaments and given that there are millions and millions of players around the world it is normal to find a lot of Poker tournaments in different operators. Moreover, Poker is perhaps the game that you will most of the times find in any casino and due to the seeh number of players operators can earn a lot from tournaments.

Well any game could be used in a tournament. The reason why OP is often seeing poker related tournaments is simply because more people are demanding for it or a casino initiated it which became a trend;happens often such as nowadays wherein sportsbetting is quite having a voice in terms of popularity. Poker tournaments are really 'something' for the fanatics of it but to those who are not into poker, it will be like normal poker game.

Some people are not into such game including me because it id quite boring (only on my perspectives 'coz the game takes long to finish and settings are often silent). I tried playing it but it is somehow hard for me to understand which is why I stopped and explored other gambling acitivities and games.
2755  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Real most rewarding Crypto Casino? on: November 09, 2022, 03:46:00 AM
Well, I have always said something, the referral system is something that can be very relative, there are bonus programs where they tell you that you should look for many referrals to earn more money, but they do not say the terms and conditions and among those conditions is that each referral must make their registration that meets their KYC requirement and apart from making deposits or something, and most referrals are people who also want to enter to win, when they tell them what they have to deposit or something like that, the safest thing is that they disappointed or something

That is why I see referrals as a double-edged sword, because if the referrals leave there is no profit for those who seek them, and this causes them to lose, so it is better to read before looking for them, or when looking for them, tell them the conditions.


Even without promos, referrals can "die" if the links are promoted inefficiently.

Honestly not so sure why do they'd join in the first place if they simply plan to bail before making some deposit.


Referrals are simply a 'chance' to earn profit without investing anything other than time convincing people to click or register to something OR getting discount on that platform you are currently playing at; depends on your motive. On the other hand, some people will join because of various reasons; they know you so they just followed your request or they are also interested with what you are offering to them (for example:split on the referral), so I see no problem at all with these referrals.

Rewards are usually for those who are actually playing which are often in form of milestone (playing 5consecutive days etc) or playing again after an interval of not doing so. It could also be in line with a particular event such as with what we've seen on recent Holloween. Point here is that majority of casinos especially online platforms will use any of there reasons not solely to give money on their players but to attract them towards playing more

2756  Economy / Gambling / Re: The History of Poker on: November 09, 2022, 01:39:18 AM
And we have heard the term 'bluff' from poker itself.
sometimes when we have a large amount of money or chips we are able to make a bluff to make people not follow our game, but that does not apply to those who have little money or chips can only hope for luck at the table when their cards come out, usually like this the cards can be easier to read if we play long at that table
Bluffing is a kind of strategy simply to decieve the opponents but it is risky sometimes. Imagine betting really huge to convince your opponents that you have your ace up on your sleeves, but ended up losing that bet because your opponent fought it out. To be decieve is somehow subjective especially in gambling because there are players who have bigger and wider gambling experience. Sometimes it would work, and sometimes it won't. The best thing to do is to gauge the odds of throwing your 'bluff' because it could be two-sided, it required huge confidence to pull it off effectively.
Of all the games in a casino, the only one I actually enjoy is Poker. "Poque" is one of the most popular games in the gambling industry. It has been around as we know it for around 100 years. It is said to have been brought from Eastern Europe onto the Americas by New World immigrants and since then has suffered several mutations; nowadays it has evolved into dozens of other gambling options and it is probably the most played online casino game in the world. Its history is quite interesting!

It is always interesting to read about the historical development of anything. It helps to give one good foundational knowledge and also gives the proper recognition to the founders of such things. I was very surprised to read that the almighty Poker game did not originate from America, but from Europe, the Middle East, and China. It was also nice to read about the transnational stages of this game to what we all enjoy now in various offline and online casinos. These changes got me thinking of how the Poker game would be played in the future.
Also, histories have loopholes. There are times whereinhistory itself is not accurate especially with the context of origin. Perhaps there were earlier ideas of card games which are similar to poker, but it happened that it was just not broadcasted and known by other countries. But good thing is that, some history books were being updated because of continuous studies. So likewise with poker, there are different versions of its origin.
2757  Economy / Economics / Re: House is a forced saving on: November 08, 2022, 02:45:36 PM
As an user mentioned owning a house have turned to be a source of pride. Constructing a house for our long need is different, but constructing a house for pride with loans is bad decision. When it is applied to commercial purpose, atleast it'll bring some revenue. In third world countries people having a good house is rich and that too a reason why people prefer on house over stocks and other forms of investment.

The purpose of owning a house is of course to educate and as an asset in the future, a house is certainly more profitable than stocks, property prices will continue to rise and can keep pace with inflation so that it is more worthy of us to make it a priority, it is a big mistake if someone holds shares but he has to pay annual house rent .
An asset, yes. But the amount of money you would invest into a house could also be an amount which would give you bigger income. You may invest that money into business, then once you're having stable profit, that would be the time you will build your dream house. The market value of a house and lot property would indeed increase as years go by butthere are other assets which could give you bigger and faster interest. Perhaps apartment; could be invested equally with a dream house because a house would be more detailed than apartment units whcih would cost less but will generate multiple profits if you'd have several units.

Or try making it a commercialized space wherein it would be bossted in many aspects, you may offer it to tenants or you yourself could use it for your desired business. Spend your money wisely.

Majority will choose its market value over its purpose simply because that is more beneficial to them/us especially as investors. Also, it is not yet accepted to most of the countries. Lastly, its volatile market value is quite of a problem on using it as a medium because there are times its value is high, and times wherein it is low. Would you wait for its msrket price to go up before you buy something? Ofcourse not, you'd be guilty by doing such 'coz you'd rather use money from your pocket. If you'd use it to buy things, you'd lose the chance to earn bigger profit, that's how simple it is, and the reason why people are mostly avoiding to use it as a medium for transactions.

But in the future, once more countries allowed it and somehow made its value less volatile, then that would be the time where the advantages of this technology will be maximized.

Depends on the project but yes, most of it are fraud especially those which popped up out of nowhere.It is for me a gamble to invest in NFT (well, in any investment, risk is present) which has higher risk than other crypto investments simply because it is solely controlled by demand while perhaps project tokens most of the time has utilities wherein an investor could use it. Also, it is harder to predict an NFTs direction. I have seen various NFT projects earning hype before the release and falling during the public sale. While there are those unexpected projects which 'explodes' after a month of being released.
Those people who are making NFT projects but don't know what NFT is and even trying to promote this thing is what makes NFT to dead. You can actually see lot of artists and influencers out there who jumped into NFT but they don't know how to actually working with NFT in their life, this also makes people are less interested into this type of project because that's what stereotype people getting when hear NFT.
Well, they are just doing their job. Promoting is one's way of helping their output to be recognized. Also we cannot blame those artists who engaged to NFTs simply because there is a higher chance for their artworks to be valued both monetary and visually. Therefore it is a higher ground to some artist which is why it is not surprising why their attentions are into NFT industry.

15 games, 1 win, 4 team bet losses, and 1 parlay loss. Does someone have some medicine for this kind of heartache?  Cheesy
I'll just share my one win in live betting.


I guess I also need that one-day rest just to clear my head.
Do you guys believe that the games this season is more unpredictable than last year? More like a balanced one? Bucks exempted.  Grin

Unpredictable indeed. Super teams are even struggling to win over the underrated teams. Also, newly drafted players has odd skillsets e.g. 7' up player banging threes. I became not so active with watching basketball when Lebron created a superteam because it made the league boring. But this year's roster is something so I'm now making time to watch games of my prospects and ofcourse to make money out of it before playoffs end. Jazz is quite having a good start as well as pheonix and these teams weren't expected by many fans for sure. Things might change; still a long way in the first place so I'm taking advantage of this period to observe teams I'm betting for this season.

But as of the moment, I guess bucks would make it to the finals, still standing strong.
