581  Economy / Speculation / Re: Share your opinion on the market. on: October 11, 2023, 08:44:26 PM
I support your statement that Bitcoin should be able to recover this month. As for the $28k support price being strong this month, I don't doubt that hope about the best price — at least the $30k price can break through and $30k will become the new support price.
That's just a prediction that won't be accurate without high bitcoin demand relative to selling interest - but there's still good hope considering October is only in its first week. I'll be watching to see whether we test new resistance or whether new support will be tested - but I'm still optimistic about being bullish this October.

Should we fasten our seat belts this October?
That's my question regarding our optimistic attitude that this October there will be big movements even though we are only a speculator.
I have my own observations if a big movement will occur this month. Maybe at the end of October there will be some event that can encourage positive changes for the price of bitcoin.

I'm still very young at speculating on the state of the market, but this picture makes a strong case that October is off to a happy start.
hopefully this is true, if in this october there will be significant change towards the trend in which gonna be continued to the end of the year it will be massive.
but I think bullish will only occurred in the next year, i just have feeling that this year around would just be price swing.
we are not looking for Bullish this year even in last quarter but what we are at least seeking for good refuge because the whole 2023 seems to be a bad days for all bitcoin supporters.
I even believe that 30k is our maintaining value but look at it now, staying low the whole year.
yeah we broke once 30k but drops again and never made it back.
The market price is becoming more healthier by the day, the month of October is going to yield something great with the market price @$27k and I believe this current price is not ready to flop or should I say go back to $26k.
I just feel $28k is warming up and this is where investors are expecting something higher than what we're seeing at this point in time.
No blogger or any of these analyst that can use their predictions to cage the minds of traders or investors into believing that this month is going to end the way September ended with a lower price of Bitcoin.
healthier just because we tasted 27-28k? but we have 30k in the recent month so what are the difference from this month?

You know people would really be having those bullish sentiment on the time that the price would be moving +2k into its previous price on which they would really be having those impression that this might be start of the
bull run or would really be talking about price increase rally but same as you said there's no such difference with those movements considering on the price or value that we are still hovering which is on 27k playing around. It did really just make out some movements but arent something that specicial because we cant really been able to break that 30k barrier on which we had thought that it was going to happen in previous months but look at on where we are now?

We are still that hovering into these levels moving back and forth. No sentiments or news around on which it is really that hard to make out some analysis because the volatility or movement could easily
fucked up those analysis been made out and this what makes that so hard to tell on where prices could actually go next. So far we are still looking good at the current market condition
but we dont really actually know on when it would really be starting to kick in.

Just been said that price might be moving into those significant levels on the time that halving event is really that nearly fast approaching. This is the only sentiment which i do see that
it might be the catalyst for a complete market reversal.
582  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sustainable Approach For Your Earnings in Gambling on: October 11, 2023, 07:38:31 PM
When it comes to gambling; only one thing sets apart gamblers from one another and this is the next step after winning. For me, i follow this simple strategy.

  • I have a go to plans, budget and i bet accordingly to that budget and plan
  • Immediately i win a bet; i go on a 3-4 days betting strike, why? I use this time to spend my earnings as already scheduled
  • For every bet earnings, i immediately withdraw 80% to my account for my scheduled plans; 5% for personal flaunts (You can call it enjoyment haha) and then i leave the remaining 15% to continue gambling into the next win.

With this approach, you will lead a successful gambling life, you will not spend all your winnings on "betting" and you will be able to point to one or two things in your life that you got with betting or gambling proceeds.

Do you think this is a good idea? Do you have a better idea?
Lets have it!
Easy to say but really that hard to be done when you are already there or simply on the time or moment that you are really that making some money with your gambling session on which it would really be creating out that kind of impulsive emotion or approach on which you would really be thinking that playing even more would really might be giving that more chance for you to make money or winnings and this what urges you to play even more and then losing those winning amounts back at the casino.Its good that you do really have that kind of self control since not all would really be having that kind of tolerance when it comes to things because if you do really find yourself that not setting out some goals then most likely you would really be just playing until you do bust all of your bankroll which this is always the case.

Its true that moderation is really that something needed when dealing up with gambling because if you do find yourself to be that impulsive then it would really be that impossible for someone to follow up
this kind of routing specially pulling 80% of winnings and intended for the next day gambling session and remain some 15% and then 5% your own spending or reward.
I could say its a good allocation but not all people would really be able to do or follow this one. Most of them will surely fail.
583  Economy / Economics / Re: Marriage mean double your passive income, rental property mean double your passi on: October 10, 2023, 09:59:57 PM
"First rental property would fund your travel expense
Second rental fund your sport car
Third rental fund your private jet
Fourth rental fund your yacht
Fifth rental fund your private island
... and so on"

Going blind into rental properties isn't the answer. You have to consider a number of things before you waste your money on a house.
if only its all that rainbow with rental properties, the truth is, as a landlord someone would also need to think to mantain building if they rented a house to someone.
also the fact that there's no guarantee there's gonna be someone renting our house if we have the property. there are so many people with the same thoughts process, the only benefit is if we become landlord in a country with unaffordable housings like what happened in canada then it will be beneficial. because the economics seem to side on the landlords.
otherwise, despite the profit, sometime, there's just many problems needs to be solved.
I was waiting for someone to mention this and there you finally are. I completely agree with you regarding this and perhaps OP forgot this part of rental properties and reality in general. No business or investment goes well without effort and maintenance. Earning a lot of property means higher taxes, bigger responsibility, and a lot more money needed for the maintenance of each house or rental property. Perhaps this is why a lot of rental properties are now transitioning to short-term rentals or even Airbnb, the maintenance can be too much as tenants move in and out frequently which in turn guarantees lesser wear and tear on the property.

Nevertheless, it is obvious that OP is only focusing on the excessive positive side of rental properties and has lost ground on reality.
Married life does mean that you should need to find and sustain yourself specially on providing the needs of your family. When it comes to passive income then nothing beats out when it comes to real estate.
We do know on what are really that advantages on having properties on which you could really be able to flip out buy and sell or would really be having those kind of rents and this is something that would really be that ideal but ofcourse we do know that the capital needed for this kind of venture is never been cheap and this is why even how much we do really like this kind of idea or business then due to cost or value then not all would really be having the chance on doing so.


Love is the foundation but that foundation would become that weak and broken if finances arent managed well and thats the truth nowadays. Love would be nothing if you cant provide shelter and food or doesnt been able to provide those basic needs which for your family to be able to live. Sooner or later then your wife would definitely leave you if you couldnt really be able to support those things.

If foundation becomes weak because of other factors, maybe it wasn't a good foundation at all. Foundation, by definition, is supposed to be something solid and should keep all other things together.
"Falling in love" is probably the worst reason to get married, as that feeling will wear off over time and you might find yourself sharing life with someone with completely different core values and goals. Real love is developed over time and is not based solely on sexual attraction.
If your relationship is built on strong, common values and on mature love rather than on the teenagers' idea of it, then it's not going to fall apart upon hitting financial difficulties, but quite the opposite, it will make both sides more determined to sort-out the problem.
Yes, you are right but we know in todays society on which love could really be learnt up and would really be that be able to learn to love someone as long they do have the money or finances.
Yes, is not a true love but when it comes to other womens mindset on which its better to have a secure future rather than on minding their feelings which i could say that i've known some
of my friends  which is like this which it is really just that a shame on having that kind of standard or ways of living or on how they do treat up themselves.
584  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Relying on gamble wins is dangerous to mental health on: October 10, 2023, 09:31:00 PM
I met a friend who used about $1 to play gamble to win about $2500 in a game of different matches, all the early games went well but the last game cut which made him loose the game.  This lose made him to be sick for 3 days, the reason for his reaction was not because of the money he used to bet but he felt so bad because he has already put all his hope on the money he would have won.

People needs not to put all their hope in games they are not sure of winning, because relying on it can be very dangerous to the mental health. Play gamble and remove your mind from the money that will be gained till it is achieved.
Dont make yourself that already anticipating or making out that conclusive approach until the match is over. I could really be able to tell about the feeling about winning a particular parlay on which your last match is really that giving off that kind of thrill and excitement at the same time specially if its a close match on which you cant really be able to determine on whose gonna win. You cant really be making yourself that able to avoid on not to chuckle with every score that would be made in both teams. If you are anticipating for a sure win but ending up on a loss then it would really be greatly affecting your mental state but of course not all would really be that too sensitive when it comes to gambling results or outcomes. There are really just those moments on which you cant really be able to avoid not to think off specially if the said profit is really that high then it would really be a normal reaction but just been said that dont celebrate it yet until its over because as long that timer doesnt comes to zero then it isnt over and there's always those things that could happen which might be resulting into a loss.

This is why as a gambler or a bettor then you should really that make yourself getting prepared on whatever circumstances or things that might happen along the way. Gambling does really have that luck
factor on which it could be turning upside down on which you do see a one side kind of game but ended up differently.
585  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading on your own vs social trading and copy trading on: October 10, 2023, 07:59:24 PM
You should have to use the mixture of these things because at start a person have no idea that what to do and what is important for getting profit so he will must follow trading signals. If you don't have knowledge then surely you will be overtrading as you will have hope that sometimes time will heals you but its not true because without knowing the basics you cannot achieve for what you are entered into crypto.

Just follow signals from experts for sometimes and when you learn the facts then leave to follow it because its upto you that what you are doing in order to maximize your profit. You can only trade by yourself if you get the experience otherwise you will just loss your money so don't be a part of overtrading and just spend that amount which you can.
When you are a complete newbie then it wont really be that so bad on seeking out with some help or really that going to tend on dealing on following someone with their trades. The only mistake on here is that newbies are really that heavily reliant on the time that they do engage into it and doesnt really mind anymore in speaking about progress and learning because they are really that depending on the source that they do have and this is what it isnt really that recommended on doing so. This is why you should really be that sensible in speaking about taking such step on trading because its not something that is really that recommendable that you should really be making acts or steps on which you had made on your own analysis. Snipping out some ideas into other trades is ideal as long you do know that you could really be able to apply and integrate into your own analysis then it would really be a good add up. Never ever make yourself that easily get fooled or really that get hooked for those people who do have those common lines that these are indeed precise chart analysis on which it is really just that not shocking if those things turns out to be shit afterwards.
Stick with your own and never make yourself that relying into other trading analysis because we are all predictors or speculators on this market which same as you said.Therefore, no one would really be able to get the right formula on how to deal up with this volatile market. Lots of streamers out there who do share up with their trading analysis and then later on once they had made out a right position and profitable trade then they would really be boasting that they are really that good and now they are offering those VIP groups which it would really be requiring for you to pay up some vip fee or some sort of like that on which its never been that worth.
You are really just indeed wasting your money and its not something that would really be that good on paying up something on which you can make with your own.


Following signals from influencers too can be very risky too because the market is basically on predictions and analysis. One thing I have understood about the market is that different influencers have there own market predictions and most time they are different from each other. Some influencers just want to make money money and gain more followers that is why we do have see them doing things that would attract more novice to be following and adhering to there instructions. We need to make sure we learn on our own rather than going from one influencer to another to seek for a 90% winning signals which be difficult and inconsistent.
We are all speculators here on this market and there's no way that those people would really be having that kind of precise predictions on how this market moves.
This is why its always that recommendable on having that realist approach or else then you would really be having that kind of action which you would really be that
a fan on trying out to follow them no matter what without realizing that it is really just that still a speculative approach.
586  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The International 12 [Dota 2, eSport] discussion thread on: October 10, 2023, 06:57:40 PM
Not really a fan of that prize pool, but it is what it is. Valve inching away from the grandest prize pools in the eSports industry is something you would not expect from them, especially since League is faring better in the tournament format and viewership albeit the lower prize pools as well. Perhaps this will be the first TI that I'm not hyped at all, since I believe that teams will no longer try hard to win given that the same prize pools can be had on future majors.

Why not be excited about the best teams competing in the largest Dota 2 tournament instead of fixating on a number. The games are still going to amazing and the prize pool is still big enough to make it worth it for all of the teams involved. (Valves contribution has not changed i believe)
The main culprit behind the lower start to the prize pool is the compendium changes.

I just feel like it's not the same anymore. As a supporter of the battle pass since its inception, and skipping this one, I feel like Valve has to do more and cater to the teams and the fans that has stuck with them throughout these years. With the lackluster content of the compendium, plus the decreased prize pool, I feel like teams won't be tryharding as much, as they can place okay-ish in TI and just get most of their wins in the next tournaments.

A lot have already expressed their disappointments with this year's tournament and format. I'd probably watch it still though I'm sure I'll not be buying the compendium at all.
Buying up that compendium is shit and not really worth. You would really be only getting those shiny stickers and some chatwheel. Yes, its cheap but not really that liking to buy but some of my friends did really purchase
that level 1 and trying out to grind their level until they would really be able to reach out that level 300 which you could have that plaque of Aegis which it isnt really that bad to be some sort of collectors item.
Even myself did really get disappointed that we havent seen those shiny and glorious arcanas that we do have on last years or in previous Battle pass but now this year do really sucks.
Some said that arcana and battle pass would really be after of this tournament. So whats the point on launching it late?  Lots of people do really get disappointed on this one including myself.
We've been waitng for a whole year and since pandemic has been lift up then we are expecting that huge crowd on this years TI but turns out to be a huge disappointment.
587  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: DOTA 2- TI12 Prizepool on: October 10, 2023, 05:45:24 PM
=====
$85,000 more for it to make it to the $3M prize pool. Very low and this is like the prize pool since TI3 which was $2.8M. But we're going to see the match happens within the next 2 days. I'll just leave it there and forget about the prize pool as the most actions are still going to be serious for this tournament for the pride of getting this year's AEGIS. That's for sure and teams are still going to push harder on this one as it's like an achievement that everyone is knocking to get despite the prize pool is low this time. Anyway mate, there are already two esports threads that has discussions about Dota 2/TI.

1. ESports betting -CS:GO, DOTA 2, LOL, Valorant
2. Esports Prediction & Discussion Thread
You cant really say that it is something that should really be forgotten because knowing TI which is the biggest event or yearly thing on Dota 2 on which every team on this esport would really be thriving and doing their very best for them to get qualified of this competition because we know that prize pool is really that something life changing comparing into the current pool which it isnt really that worth to fight for but still not that a bad amount but not really something that could really motivate you on playing your best. It is really just that like rather on being that a typical regional major event of it which Riyadh masters is really have that much bigger prize pool.
We cant really be that able to avoid on pointing out our fingers on the current numbers knowing that its never been that the same comparing into those previous TI. This is really that a huge step down
and i could say that players are really that disappointed too because prize pool isnt really that high to compete on which it isnt the same or i had been anticipating that it would really be that similar on year 2021
where pool is really that huge and something that worth to be that fighting for and not something like this which we are accumulating just that very low.
588  Economy / Economics / Re: Marriage mean double your passive income, rental property mean double your passi on: October 09, 2023, 08:59:56 PM
Marrying for financial gain ignores the importance of love and companionship, which can lead to disappointment. Comparing marriage to home ownership simplifies their distinct values. For a more happy existence, it is critical to value real connections above money exploitation and to combine financial objectives with personal contentment.
Looking into the Financial aspect chateria in marriage does not mean one is just focusing on money alone.  Apart from love their ate other things people desire in marriage like respect, some physical qualities which can be beauty or handsomeness and other  things and I don't think if one puts Finance as a desire in marriage I don't see it to be bad and it doesn't mean their is no love too. Everyone wants a good life and if people will choose Financial stability as one of their requirements in marriage or getting a partner their is nothing wrong about it, we all know what we want.
Outside of the original post, I generally agree with you. Marriage these days shouldn't be compared to back then when everything is about love. These days we have to use both our mind and heart. Despite needing feelings and emotional connection with the significant other to maintain commitment and a harmoinous relationship, we cannot ignore the fact that we also require or look for other things. Moreover, these days with the state of the economy and just how important financial stability is, it isn't bad for an individual to look for a significant other who either have an already established financial stability or is already on the way there as it ensures them that they will have a good future together, including their future family. Being a gold digger and being practical have a distinct line that separates them from each other.
Love is the foundation but that foundation would become that weak and broken if finances arent managed well and thats the truth nowadays. Love would be nothing if you cant provide shelter and food or doesnt been able to provide those basic needs which for your family to be able to live. Sooner or later then your wife would definitely leave you if you couldnt really be able to support those things. Women nowadays becomes already that smart on which one of their main criterias on choosing someone to marry with is into those people who could really be able to make them give a good life in terms of finances. Love would really be second priority but somewhat im not really that generalizing all since not all women does really always check out about this stuff and there are ones who are really that getting inlove and doesnt prioritize about mans richness but in todays society then those numbers are really just less.

If you are a family guy and able to see and notice that your earnings arent really that enough anymore or something short then it would really be just that fine that you should really be finding to need
some extra income to support on what your family needs because marriage life and having kids needs to raise is never been easy and a life time commitment on which means that
being smart on finding other source is something that would really be that recommended on doing so.

Dota2 players/fan out there.
What can you say about the current Prize pool of The international 12?
Why its too damn low compared into previous years on which it supposed to be that much bigger?
Whats Gaben plan behind in all of this?


TI12 would be starting on;
Group Stage - October 12 - October 15, 2023
Main Event - October 20 - October 22 (Playoffs Weekend) & October 27 - October 29 (Finals Weekend), 2023
Link

Current prize pool.
Base Prize Pool   
$1,600,000

Contributed Prize Pool
$1,309,865

Total Prize Pool
$2,909,865


These numbers are really that low. If they had just released those Skins,Immortals,Arcanas instead of Compedium.
Then we might be seeing huge numbers on here. So sad to see this current year of The international.
590  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The most risky adventure you must avoid on: October 09, 2023, 06:59:10 PM
Boom, the headline cut your attention right? That's perfect . There are lots of risks in business, investment and trading which is not new to anyone. They have become a common life phenomenal.
 However, the worst risk in the world which I am here to advice everyone at this moment is that it is MOST RISKY  not to take risk.
All great men of our time, have taken one risk and the other, break the barricade of fears and venture into the uncertainty as you uncover your potential.

Well to be sincere with you, everyone who had taken risk and had come with a success story have one common line of story to tell us all that they have taken a calculated risk. Every investor, trader and the rest should learn to take a well calculated risk.

 To know more and gain more experience requires taking some risk that will help you learn. As a trader, just reading without practicing what you have learnt which involve some level of risk does you no good than having an ordinary head knowledge.
 Don't forget that risk is venturing into the uncertainty, so endeavor to keep it a calculated risk before diving into the final decision.

This is not just about trading, this is about anything connecting to human life. Let this words be taken beyond the four walls of trading to every aspect of human life and see the result thereafter. Most important message here is to take a calculated risk


The greatest RISK is not really getting any RISK on which this turns out to be a known word and something that not all really that bothered on following into and really just going into the safe side but in exchange then they didnt really make out any progress in their life and this is why we do really see different situations and conditions comparing into those people who do take risks and to those who didnt. Yes, its recommendable because we wont really be that progressive if we wont really be taking up some step further. The issue on here is that not all would really be having that courage on doing such thing and this is why they have decided that they would really be contented on what they do currently have on which its not bad because we cant really be able to force them on what are the things that they should do since its their own lives then it would really be just that their right on what are the things that they would really be involving. It is really just that depending on you which things you would really be tending to get involved with. If you do love a life on having that kind of situation on which you could really be able to buy that you do want then you should really make yourself that do extra work and extra risks because if not then you wont really be seeing yourself anytime soon.
591  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Betting significant amount on: October 09, 2023, 06:12:17 PM
I'm always betting significant amount when I'm in the losing streak, Let's say only 30% left from my original bankroll after playing 1hr to 4hrs of non-stop Blackjack.

I always bet all-in which is my remaining bankroll that is significant amount for me on a 25% win chance rate bet on dice game. My heart palpitates during this bet and I really love the intense feeling. Most of the time I lose on this but it's really worth it if I win since I recover my original bankroll plus sweet profit of 20% of my bankroll.

I'm always doing this whenever I'm down after long gambling session just to finish with a big bang of surprise. When I lose at least I experience the thrill same with win since I have profit.

Are you doing this intense gambling experience by betting significant amount of your bankroll? This is insane but worth it if you are a thrill seeker for entertainment.
Trying to jump with other game types is never been my forte because if i do decide to play a certain gambling game on a particular gambling bankroll then i do really stick into it until the very end on which means that
jumping from Blackjack to dice isnt something that i would really do but since each person does have their own ways on enjoying or entertaining themselves then it would really be that depending on a certain individual.
Its true that gambling should really be played for fun and thrill on which it would really be just that normal that you would neither be playing different types or playing on a single one which would really be just that according into your mood since not all would really be that having on the same interest on the game that they do play.

Betting significant amount then its not something that i would do because being that impulsive is never be giving out anything something good for me but rather i would really be playing a single
game entire balance and wont really be jumping anytime soon. Im not anticipating for some breakeven when im already on that depleting balance. I would make most out of it on the
game type i've been sticking all the time until the very end.
592  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Reckless gambling starts after a win round. on: October 06, 2023, 01:57:16 AM
Stories like that are very common and I agree with the OP on their theory, if a person only lost money when they gambled then it would be very difficult to get addicted to an activity that was always punishing them in such a relentless manner, however if you happen to win then you will begin to chase those profits and that feeling, and while there is nothing wrong to do this with moderation, this could eventually lead a person to develop a gambling addiction if they cannot control themselves.
People tend to be moderate with their gambling activities initially after they get some wins in their very first gambling session, but they start losing control as they start going deeper into the well of gambling addiction. If they go gambling for the second time after winning in the first session and then they lose some money, they might not be that much interested in gambling, but if they manage to win more in the second session, that makes it more difficult for them to stay away.

So, the first few gambling sessions are basically the deciders of what a person would become in the gambling industry, whether they will stop gambling, will become a gambling addict, or will become a responsible gambler and only use a limited amount of time and money on their gambling activities.
Something very similar happens with trading as well, in which if a person invest in shitcoins and they happen to earn money then they think that trading and investing is nowhere near as hard as they were told and they are incredible at it, then they keep investing pursuing those easy profits until they begin to lose, then they refuse to accept that they were lucky at the beginning of their journey and they spend the rest of their lives trying to recreate that early success they got.
Yes, you could really be having on the same emotion and impression on the time that you are consecutively making up some profitable trades on which it would really be that creating that sort of confidence on which it would really be that resulting on being that too careless which would really be resulting into different outcome or situation later on. This is where self control and moderation would really be that relevant on which you could really be able to handle yourself on different situations and do stick into your earlier plans and limits then you should really be just that fine. There are really just that people who do forgot on what they had set earlier and would really be making out some later regrets and telling this,those and that. This is why it would really be that always be considerable that taking or having a control would be always that relevant or something recommendable to do so. If you wont really be that mindful about this then expect on what are those consequences.

Im already that numb when it comes to these predictions on which they could say all the numbers that they do want but im not really that making myself that believing that it could really happen.
Lets stick into that realistic side of things that we do even have a hard time on breaking 30k. How much more into that previous ATH that it does have which is $69k. Lets talk about $100k first
before speaking about +100k increments overtime. Well, everything could really happen considering that there are still tons of various source of money could flow to crypto. It is really just that there's no way that it could really be known or predicted on when it would really be that going down the stream.

$100k is already a struggle is should say but well we are still on pre-halving season or time on which there's still lots of room for the price to rise up.It is really just that recommended or right on investors or traders perspective that we should really be having that realistic approach at least so that we arent that anticipating that much about into those numbers been mentioned. Lastly, it seems like those fellas
had already filled up their bags and now trying out to make some bullish sentiment and just trying to drive the market up.

Totally odd that they didnt launch up battle pass for this year but instead they do have that compedium which we know that in every year approaches then people are really that anticipating for battle pass on which it would really be giving out that chance on getting those exclusive sets and whatever inclusive to it and not on what we are currently seeing now.

There is nothing odd with that. We all know that Valve have been pretty greedy and they think that the entire community will keep on funding the TI prizepool even if they put up shit to sale this year. Valve reap what they sow with this compedium and they would have better learn from this mistake otherwise we will have another TI next year with less than $3M prizepool

At this rate, Im not sure if we are even going to pass $3M prizepool mark



Betting on BIG to win tomorrow, not sure if this is actually worth it to bet but there isnt anything until TI
--
Valve probably didn't expect a compendium without items to be so unsuccessful. If we take the growth rate of prize money, it is very similar to TI4. On the other hand, I would like to ask the question: are they really so short-sighted as to make such ambiguous decisions? I’m starting to think that they have thought out a plan to reduce prize money, but I also don’t understand why they need this. In general, we took a big step back. Personally, I miss new items, leveling up, and music that immerses me in this magical atmosphere of TI. It was like I was part of it when I watched the broadcasts, now I won’t have that TI spirit, at least this year.
Totally a boring TI isnt it?

As a Dota player then TI is the most awaited time or moment or event to happen. Im really that eyeing or waiting for those immortal or arcana sets which i could purchase on
which same goes with those weather effects and some icons which it would bring out that different experience and same as yours on which music packs does really matter
but now on that compedium we are really just getting those stickers with ambient effects. The only thing which is interesting is that Aegis plaque that you could get physically
on which hitting up level 300 on compedium.

In regarding on betting, then i dont bet on groupstages but im much more having the thrill on betting when playoffs start. This is where the fun do really begins.
595  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Earn an apartment in a bear market on: October 05, 2023, 08:59:20 PM
Hi all.
I decided to set myself a goal - to save money for an apartment with the help of cryptocurrency. The cost of the apartment is $130,000.
At the moment there are 6000$ in cryptocurrency
My portfolio consists of BTC,ETH,XRP,SOL,DOT,XLM,ADA

Ready to invest $500 per month.
Advise on the best way to fix profits and what kind of cryptocurrency to buy. Now the markets have fallen - it's time to buy.
So you do have currently 6k usd in your crypto or still in fiat form? If those total in 6k then you would really be having no choice but to hold it up specially those coins mentioned are top layer 1 coins in the market.
The only issue on here is that there's no way on telling on which coins would really be pumping on upcoming bull run. There's no way on knowing on what the future holds. Basing up on your target which is
$160k which is really that still needing that x22 of your current portfolio value then i must say that it is really that still too far stretch off. Somewhat we dont really know on how many X or multipliers which those coins would really be able to reach out on upcoming bullrun. Dont alter out with those coins you've selected into some shitcoins in the market just to make yourself be able to reach out that goal. Be patient and lets see on how
this upcoming bullrun would stretched out.


Those that are on the OPs portfolio are not really that bad alts, those were the kind of alts that follow suit during bitcoin will have a run. So, most probably it's going to after the halving where bitcoin tends to make a bullrun that could potentially break another ATH, these alts would follow as well. Though adding more bitcoin to your portfolio is a bit of a safer choice than continue diversifying with alts these days, but still it depends on your preferences as we are all trying to maximize the opportunity to earn more during bull season.

Totally not a bad choice and even myself on having a capital or money to be spent then i would definitely be going with these top coins and a little bit mix of some new coins
that had really some potential on which i could say that it isnt really that a bad bag that you've been holding. Better to get less risky action or movement rather than
on making yourself bagholding some shit or meme coins for long term .lol

~snip~
oh, that's interesting
didn't know about the go AIs, heard about it but just really little in the past

what we are seeing in art with AI is really cool too, many breakthroughs happening
we're hitting acceleration point now.

Yes, I think we are starting to enter the phase where human minds and AI minds work together to create new things.

This will be an inflection point in history, similar to how the Internet changed everything.

Not sure if I would call this phase of the technological era to be an inflection point, because even though we can be pretty much amazed about what it was been reached with Artificial intelligence, there is still a long path forward before developers and even politicians who need to regulate the ethical questions behind AI.

Rather than being a tool for people to be more productive, I am afraid big companies will seek to replace much of their personnel by robots or machines powered with AI, in the case of casinos, they could try to replace costumer service with Artificial Intelligence in the Future, not for now though, since managing accounts where money is deposited requires human common sense.

I don't really think we'll have the time for regulators to adapt
we can see it with crypto, many are creating laws about things they don't even understand and the few who do are stuck in a system that is too slow to adapt.

Regarding replacing costumer service for AIs, you can fight that by creating an AI to contact costumer support for you as well.

Every knife cuts for the two sides in these cases.
-
AI in these cases can be Useful , but for more Advanced, more Complicated things, it Could be Useful in Certain tools, of course not That it is always superior to a human, but it can help a lot, in the games of chance those who are training their robot is Quite difficult for them to be able to beat the seven of a casino, I don't see it as viable, because the Development is quite strong, the way I see it is for it to reach a good level of Development Well, I See it going hard , at Least for this 2023 I Don't see that it could be something that could be Threatening for any casino , but if they go at the speed they are Going, then it is possible that in 2 or 3 more years the AI will be a Little more Perfect And if you can threaten a casino System , that's why casinos now have Plenty of Security Sources.


Not 2 or 3 years. If I had to guess on the time before Artificial intelligence can be considering threatening towards the industry, it would take a combination of AI and also quantum computing, so an algorithm could somehow break the process behind provably fair gambling games.

Because, in the end it would not matter how powerful an AI is, because it would not have access to privileged information (protected by cryptographic keys) which are used to avoid bad actors to influence the outcome of the spins and rolls of dices in casinos.

Or at least, that is how I understand it is supposed to work, I am not necessarily the most illustrated person when comes to security software.  Tongue
Techonoligical advancement is something that inevitable but we shouldn't really be that hope for those things to happen soon yet there  would really be tons or industries that would really be mainly be affected once quantum computing would really be already that available or has been created. We know that the current ChatGPT did really make that entrance on which it did really hype up the entire world about its usage and relevance but of course there would really be those assumptions that had been made on.

Yeah, the generation of media from an AI has exploded lately.

We now have music, videos, images, and text generated by an AI that can be as good as what a human can make.

And the cool thing is that it is just getting better every month and year
It would becoming more better and better as the years passing by on which advancement would really be  there and its something inevitable.
We dont know on how far iwould really be able to reach out but we know that as long that it would really be continually to be developed then expect
that it could really be able to be more useful to humanity but the fact that there would really be some cons on some corners or things but doesnt matter
which as long it would really be outweighing those risks by its utility then this what matter the most.
597  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Trading on your own vs social trading and copy trading on: October 05, 2023, 06:59:21 PM
I think that by trading on my own I am just overtrading...I am looking for options to get trading ideas/trading signals etc to analyze those ideas and select only the best ones.
What options does one have to view trading ideas/signals from other professional traders?

Instead of seeking for shortcuts to make money in trading, why not try investing in Bitcoin for the time being and then taking your time learning how to trade on your own?

Some trading professionals who provide trading signals are very good and are worth following for good trading tips and ideas, but keep in mind that they also took their time to learn and become this successful; you can start learning from them and getting some ideas to add to your own initial idea so that you do not copy their trading, but instead use the idea to get a good trading strategy for yourself.
If you do take shortcuts then it would really be normal that you would really be ending up with these kind of considerations or things that you would really be having in mind on which instead on bring up some usefulness
into you which it would really be rather be putting you up on harm instead and this is something that we should really be that minding because if you are really that having that kind of desperation on trying out to speed things up then this is where error and mistakes do usually happen and this is something that we must avoid in the first place. Nothing beats out if you do really make your own trades rather than on following someones
because we are all speculators on here on this market.

Trading signals don't take each subsciber's risk tolerance into account, it simply takes an average of the values that everyone considers they can afford to lose.
Trading isn't just about near-accurate analysis, it is also about management. Sometimes, excessive trading signals can throw you off your trading plan.
Even trading signals do not care about anyone, they are only made to benefit the signal maker.
A signal that is just a number without any chart analysis is just a fake signal, no one can be trusted.

Then tarding yourself by analyzing independently will be better.
It makes us learn how to analyze, and predict prices that will occur.

Trading is not only about analysis but also about management.
Without doing good management, the trading plan that was originally a good plan will turn into a bad plan.

Yes, they are really that sharing up those trading tips just for having that kind of possible benefit on which it would really be gained by them which turns out to be an
extra income for them specially if there would really be some sub fees. We do know that there would really be those VIP fees or whatsoever if you do really tend to join up
on a particular group.Somewhat if you do see about being profitable type of trader then making some following wont be bad but i should say that spending some bucks
for that kind of opportunity is never been worth. Better to trade with your own and never consider out this stuff.
598  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you manage greed to place your bet on: October 04, 2023, 09:54:26 PM
For much long now I have never place bet with a higher amount but there was a bet i placed few days ago and i was tempted to increase my wager from what it should be before, Let say i often gamble with at least 200 Naira and maximum is 2,000 for a multiple bets But recently something came into me to start increasing my wager above my limits due to a game that was predicts to me it gives me all possibilities that I could cash out big time. This now made me to come here to asked how do you control your greed with your bet amount, do you go ahead placing the bet as your minds speaks or do only maintain to your limits whether it plays or not doesn't matter.

Again why do you regret after putting smaller amounts and it happens the games went as planned and starts blaming yourself for not increasing your bet amount, maybe by now you could have cashed out big time. How do you control this thought over your ends do you keep to your regulations of always placing bets with some limits or you place bet according to your mind and regrets after losing that amount for not following your limits?

Lets discuss wisely and if something related to this post please point it out.. Maybe would devote time to study what has been written over there.
You would be only making that realization on the time that you had made out such mistake or errors. People would really be changing up on the time that they do have those lesson learned scenarios.  Cool
How to manage greed? It would depend on someones self control and  each person does have that different threshold or level of tolerance when it comes to risks factor on which some would really be
that mindful and some wont really be caring at all as long they could play and satisfy themselves then this what matter the most.

In gambling where most of us see it as a source of profits more than fun and entertainment, greed will always be present. As long as there is motivation to earn, there is also amount of greed that we can't deny. But we all know how greed can be destructive at some point. That's the reason why instead of tolerating our greed, it's safer if we can only gamble at an amount that we can easily manage to lose. By establishing our budget funds that are intended in gambling, that will help us not to fall into greed and just bet without crossing our limits.

It should be for fun but we know that majority of us gamblers do see the different thing around on which we are really that focusing much in speaking on making money and this is why it would really be that resulting
into those actions which its not new anymore. For those people who do have good control then they are the ones who would really be saved from addiction but for those people who do treat up gambling as a source of income and making themselves that hella of a greedy person then this is where disaster happens. Dont let yourself comes into a point that you would really be suffering those consequences.
599  Economy / Economics / Re: Recession? How to face It? on: October 04, 2023, 08:50:27 PM
Everyone is of course very worried if this condition occurs in the country they live in, but in my opinion life will continue as it should and we must be able to survive whatever the conditions are. I agree with you, we must be able to overcome it by looking for various solutions to overcome the recession the most important thing is that we must still be able to meet the needs of our families.

Exactly. Whatever happens, things will never get as bad as in the past, say, during the great depression in the 1930s, when even people in developed countries were becoming homeless en masse or even starved to death.

But still, it is better to be prepared than sorry. Moving some of your wealth into more recession-resistant assets is probably a good move. Whether Bitcoin is one of those assets - time will tell.
Not only really just that limited to Bitcoin but also in other business or investment as well like real estate or whatever business that you could really be able to done with. Making no move
or having no plans on trying out to back up your financial and just simply keeping your money at the banks would never do good for you specially on running years to come. We do know on how
inflation works and on the time that recession happens then for sure you are fucked up.This is why it would really be always that ideal and wise thing to be done that you do need to root yourself
and make out those sensible decisions which you do look that it would really be beneficial for you once things do happen.

It's important to know what to do and prepare ahead of it, but knowing hard times does not last forever.
Just like what you mentioned, people in this situation should stop living luxury life and accept the situation at hand although most people can't just stop leaving their normal lives in situation like this. But in my own opinion people facing challenges like inflation should be more productive, learning skills to advance their career such as web development, software development.

Might not last forever but it do becomes worst over the years passing by.  Wink
This is why it would be wise that you should not make yourself get caught into the situation that you would really be struggling in terms of finances.
This is why back up plans would really be crucial most of the time.

After we saw the SlapFight Championship which had a lot of buzz on social media and also raised concerns about the safety of fighters or in a better term: slappers, it was a known topic of discussion between both supporters and others against it. Today, while I was surfing and watching some videos I came across a video of pillow fighting between two tough guys in a ring the thing that made me search for more information. Surprisingly, I found out that they also have a championship and there's already the first professional international pillow fighting sports association which means it’s officially a sport.
I don't see it as bad as slapping but it might be a bit boring for us to watch because it seems nearly impossible to knock your opponent out or for judges to determine a winner unless they decide to put rocks inside the pillows (just kidding).

What are your thoughts on this new sport, Do you think we might see it in sportsbooks anytime soon?
We know that we do live on this world on which human beings could really make out some announcement or making some things official and doesnt matter if it might look dumb to be called a sport then it is what it is.
Now that pillow fighting is something that cant really hurt out a certain person then people would be making out those kind of reactions or words telling and puzzling out their minds on how someone could knock
down a person on just using a pillow? Now its not really shocking that people would really be always having to say and its not really that shocking anymore. Scoring through hits or making points is a common sense
thing if we do speak about on how to win the game or sport. I havent seen this one though but since you had mentioned it out then i might be making some search first and sees on how the game
though having some mechanics and on just hearing out then i must admit that it is really that a pretty boring game or something not that interesting. Frankly speaking, i would really be better to
get entertained on watching those slapping big dudes rather than on a girly pillow fight.  Grin
Want to watch directly? So here's some link on how it looks like.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBbBOgQnp9M
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FG4HO_jv7Q

So watching out the video did really make me chuckle. What the heck this sports which using up a boxing ring and having those typical MMA movements but
handling out a pillow aiming for the head but are those things do actually make someone that to be knocked down?

On thing i had observed too that seeing on the crowd on which there are really lots of people who do watch this one which means
that demand and recognition about this sport is real. hahaha
