1001  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Sometimes betting is just ridiculous. Sometimes it is complete nonsense. on: November 30, 2023, 05:51:03 AM
I find it inappropriate to offer a betting option on the winner of a war; it's just edited, and the screenshot isn't even clear. Regarding other betting options, such as elections, Oscar winners, or music event winners, I don't see anything wrong with that, as people enjoy betting on various events.

What I believe is that a regulated casino won't joke around on serious matters, especially those that involve the lives of many.
Sure it's inappropriate but I can't see why some betting sites won't do this type of stuff, it's not that crazy of a thing to think that someone will try this anyway. Also, if you allow those other events that aren't really what someone might consider a betting worthy event then war is equally welcome as those other stuff as much as we are disgusted about it if this is a true thing and if we want to do something about it then probably we can just file some sort of complaint to the casino first and then to the regulatory commission that might have a jurisdiction on that betting site. People have been profiting out of the misery of others ever since, I don't think that this is any different from that, either we fight this or we just ignore it, that's the only way in my opinion that we can deal with this issue.

Using gambling as a way to make money is a mistake because one should think that it will never be effective, even though there may be people who can actually make money from gambling. But the difference is so great that many people who try will not be able to make money from gambling. They will only experience worse problems if they continue to gamble in order to make money from gambling, and they could even have the possibility of becoming addicted to gambling. This is what people should worry about, so they should look for other ways to make money where they can have more opportunities. Playing gambling requires self-control, while if someone has often experienced loss, his self-control can start to disappear until, finally, he will lose self-control just because he wants to get a steady income from gambling.
It totally is a mistake but the problem is that there are people out there that are able to make money in gambling and though they are not a majority, they still exist so we can't say with an absolute certainty that using gambling as a way to make money is a mistake because for the lucky few, they were able to do that very thing but I am not saying that we should consider gambling even with this stories because they're definitely an oddball, an exception to the rule if I may say. What you're saying I definitely support that because I too believe that gambling isn't the best way to make steady money, and if I may add, I think that the people that are trying to make it in gambling are lazy people that don't have any marketable skill so they want to try the hard way that's disguised as the easy way to live a life.
1003  Local / Pamilihan / Re: Katapusan na ba ng Binance dito sa Pinas? on: November 30, 2023, 03:56:21 AM
Fret not, pero sa tingin ko sa laki ng Binance ay hindi naman ata nila babalewalain ang mga Philippine users which in fact isa sa mga nangungunang crypto hub dito sa Asia. Gumagamit parin ako kay Binance at yung settlement para sa akin isang hakbang natin yun para maging agresibo na sila lalo na sa mga licences na yan.
Ang problema kasi dito ay yung iba dito ata nakalagay yung cryptocurrency nila, yung isa ko na kaibigan ngayon ay nagpapanic kasi sa Binance lang nakastore yung karamihan ng crypto niya at wala siya non-custodial wallet at wala din siyang gana na gumawa ng ganun kaya ayun nagkaroon siya ng problema regarding sa kanyang mga crypto na nakalagay sa Binance. Tingin ko hindi rin magpapatinag yung SEC pagdating sa allowance ng permit kay Binance kasi sa tingin nakisabay lang yan sila sa issue ng Binance with US at siguro ayaw din ng SEC na magkaroon ng imply na sinusuportahan ng Pilipinas ang Binace kaya ayun gumagawa sila ng action na kunwari ay ginagawa sila.

That's the typical mindset ng karamihan sa mga pinoy. Alam natin sa sarili natin na too good to be true ang inooffer, pero iisipin na maganda pasukan. Palaging umaasa sa chance na magkaroon ng profit kahit alam ang risk na haharapin. Ang malaking katanungan natin kasi dito ay paano mo masasabi kung kelan sila magiging scam at paano mo ggawing maging maingat ang sarili mo kung hindi mo hawak ang funds mo. Walang maingat sa pagpasok sa obvious scam, walang way para maiwasan kung ikaw mismo ang lalapit dito. Mas mabuting wag pasukin ang ganitong klaseng scheme para walang pagsisihan sa huli. Laging tandaan na huwag magpapasilaw sa malaking pera o sa interest na pinapakita nila dahil imbis na kumita ka, mawawalan ka lang.
Basta ako kumita ako bago mag-rugpull yung TuneGaGa tulad ng mga kakilala ko so ang point ko is hindi yan sila basta basta gagawa lang ng scam, magpapalawak yan sila ng user base at bago pa lang ata sila, hindi pa ganun kadami yung nagpapasok ng crypto sa kanila pero siyempre mas maganda pa din na huwag na nga lang subukan. I mean ako kaya ko subukan kasi hindi naman ganun kalaki yung ilalapag ko kung sakaling itry ko, kuha ko naman yung concern mo pero hindi ko naman sinabi na magstay sa pag-invest sa scam na ito, sayang din yung makukuha mo sa mga scammer na to kung sakali pero sakin lang naman yun.
1005  Local / Pamilihan / Re: Binance-Tirlu Trading on: November 30, 2023, 02:21:49 AM
Never ko narinig yan at masyadong too good to be true nga. Kapag mga ganyang offer ay parang mas maganda na iignore mo nalang. Kung effective kasi yan, mas maganda na gawin niya nalang sa sarili niya kung gumagana naman talaga at siya nalang mismo makinabang muna. Sa dami ng mga scam ngayon, ingat tayo sa mga inooffer sa atin. Pero kung nag iinsist ka naman at gusto mo itry, pera mo naman isasalang mo diyan at kung afford mong mawala yun. Mas ok talaga sa mga ganitong scheme na iwasan nalang at iwarn mo nalang ibang tao sa grupo na yan kung may kakilala ka.
Ako lang ba o parang maganda pasukan to kahit alam na too good to be true kasi kakadiscover pa lang naman sa scam na ito kaya may chance pa na pwede kang magprofit sa kanila bago sila magsimula magscam pero siyempre ingat talaga kung gagawin mo to o di naman kaya ay huwag mo nalang gawin at ignore na nga lang talaga o hindi naman kaya ay iremind mo yung mga kakilala mo regarding sa scam na ito in case na hindi pa nila ito naririnig, mabuti ng may warning na sila bago pa sila makapasok tapos hindi na makalabas kasi nahumaling na sila.

Kasi malaki yung pera na nilalabas ng mga gambling platforms para magpromote sila sa tulong ng mga influencers, may nakita nga ako na isang influencer na nagreveal ng mga Gambling game na nagpm sa kanya para magpromote ng sugal sa kanyang page, at sa pinakita niya is around 10k pesos ata ang lowest tapos kahit sa dulo mo na siya ng video na ipopost mo yung sugal na ipopromote mo tapos kahit 5 video mo lang sila imention ayos na kaya hindi na nakakapagtaka na madaming naattract na mga influencers at streamers na magpromote kasi malaki nga naman yung kinikita. Yung influencer nga pala na binabanggit ko ay si Typical Pinoy Crap.

Let them say what they have to say about bitcoin if it's changing a lot of people's lives and not them then so be it, just don't prohibit or stop your people from investing in something that they believe in and that will help them throughout their financial struggles. Those people that are worried about bitcoin are either against it because they give freedom to the people from the conventional financial institutions or that they want to create an artificial negativity in market or FUD so they can buy bitcoin at a much cheaper price since fear discourages some people from investing in bitcoin if they hear this so-called "trusted" authorities saying that investing in bitcoin is so risky that they need to get out of it if they're invested in bitcoin.
1009  Economy / Economics / Re: World economy is divided by 2 the east and west the USA and russia also Canada on: November 29, 2023, 07:05:49 AM
If you want to understand the world better and write a better "analysis" than this, you have to expand your view a lot more than this. Right now you are too focused on a very tiny portion of what is actually happening in the world which makes your view very limited.

The East vs. West is far more complicated than just Russia and US and only oil/gas. And even though there are only 4-5 actual geopolitical players, this affects the entire world and the rest are picking sides making a big bloc versus bloc.
I was like this too, it's East vs West but when you look at international news and politics, it's more than just the East trying to dominate the West, there's no countries united in destroying or one upping the other direction because there are countries in east that leans toward foreign policies and international relations that favors the west and vice versa, I mean look at Ukraine, that's a glaring example that not all of East are against West. I do agree that it's complicated as just East vs West but I believe that this is more like a Neo Cold War but with oil and global influence as a way to fight against each other, I mean Putin was mad that Russia lost a lot of land during the collapse of the USSR so in a way he's trying to start something again but it's more different now because a lot of countries have learned already about which side they're choosing.
1010  Economy / Economics / Re: Luxury and spending lifestyle fastest way to poverty rich kid on: November 29, 2023, 05:17:53 AM
If you want to be rich sell to rich kids.
This actually makes sense since spoiled brats will be the most gullible people out there when it comes to spending and they're the most likely people to be buying luxury items so it makes sense you will have them as your target market if you want to create a successful business but got to make sure that your product is something they can flex on other people and make them raise their status.
you’re saying that we should sell drugs and liquor to rich kids who are now poor because of drug addiction and alcohol abuse?

the example you used are kids partying and spending money like it’s nothing it’s true that you could have them as your target market and gain profit but this will weigh in on too much on my conscience i also don’t think we should sacrifice our own safety just to get rich

instead you’d want to sell to middle-class people sell them items that are luxury looking but are cheap i’m not saying to scam them but a lot of middle-class people buy fake goods because they want to seem rich for some reasons they’re the most expressive about their purchases
Sure the example is a bit wrong and will deliver the wrong message but if you actually use common sense, they make sense that you will have these rich kids as a customer base for your products because they don't mind spending money since they're mooching off of their parents' money. It's difficult to do the luxury looking but cheap because the looks of luxury brands are what's extensive to do and you can't do that with cheap labor and your cheap labor isn't a sweatshop somewhere in Asia.
1011  Economy / Economics / Re: How we survive food shortages on: November 29, 2023, 04:51:26 AM
There are so many solutions to the issue of food shortages that the world may be experiencing. Some of these solutions have a pragmatic approach, and some do not. Food shortages can be addressed indirectly through cryptocurrency. How so?
Cryptocurrencies can help with the provision of farm credit to poor farmers and those located in hard-to-reach areas where financial services may be nonexistent. Doing so will give them the morale to get back to the field to cultivate their crops or rear their animals.
What solution are you talking about? That's pretty generalized and vague that you didn't say any kind of solution so how can you say that some of them are pragmatic or not? Crypto isn't the solution to the woes of the farmers, poor farmers need to be able to make money out of their harvest while not worrying about the fertilizers and pesticides that they're using for their crops, what they need is infrastructure and roads that will make it easy to move their products to the market which is essentially cutting the middle man because that's what I've seen that's making it difficult for farmers to get profit out of their crops and livestocks, the middleman is what's making the most money.
1012  Economy / Economics / Re: Inventing a job is better than finding a job on: November 29, 2023, 04:20:36 AM
Let me tell you this though, there's 8 billion people in the world, if what you're trying to say is much easier, how are you exactly going to be able to invent jobs if everyone's doing it? Also, if you mean to create a business, I don't think that it's going to be for everyone to do that anyway because not everyone can be an entrepreneur and if I'm being honest, it's easier to find a job if you know where to look at, maybe it's not a job that you normally do or matches your degree but still a job is a job and there's a lot there that you can find, not everyone wants to be an entrepreneur anyway. Also if you mean inventing a job as in literally, then you will be needing a lot of money because you're planning to create something new and people aren't going to believe you at first so I don't think that inventing a job is going to be much easier.
1013  Economy / Speculation / Re: Dump market potential? on: November 29, 2023, 03:56:31 AM
For me to start worrying about a conflict causing a negative influence in the market, it's got to be super power nations that are directly in conflict and not just doing their proxy wars with other nations. That's when I'm going to be worried although I am not trying to be worried too much about conflicts as much as I can since there's only so much that I can do. And in the case that I worry about, I don't think bitcoin or crypto market dumps are going to be what I will be worrying about, super power nations at war is going to get us closer to the midnight of Doomsday clock.
1014  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Why Binance exchange delisting the crytop currencies and the sport trade pairs on: November 29, 2023, 03:25:00 AM
Binance usually keeps delisting those coins and pair which don't meet certain criteria, I have seen Binance delisting coins when they are heavily manipulated like it did with a coin named Nebilo where the price of coin were heavily manipulated as Binance cannot afford to lose out on its reputation by having projects listed in it's exchange which are very volatile and it's prices being controlled hence they removed Nebilo and I guess same logic applies to some of these coins .
Exactly, OP seems to be trying to make it look like these two events are somehow connected but Binance has been doing this even before this AML investigation has been surfacing so basically the only explanation to this is that Binance is just doing business as usual and they can't afford to stop because their CEO was replaced because he stepped down, it's just a coincidence that there's a lot of tokens that got delisted while the issue is still at it's hottest.

If op could endure to hold bitcoin from 25k till date what then stops him from not holding till bullrun, what difference does it make selling now?
Well I can't detects for op even to tell him hold on but as a bitcoiner someone who so much believe and trust bitcoin should be able to know that bitcoin is a speculative assets and for that we have just few months/days to halving and this could really fetched him something very amazing if op can just hold till the main bullrun.
Halving is estimated to be 4 to 5 months away from happening, I think that doesn't count as few months. There's going to be an opportunity for OP to buy bitcoin along those months anyway so I am sure that selling right now won't be that bad of a deal, it's not like OP is going to quit investing for good just because OP is selling. Also, there's definitely going to be a time where bitcoin price will eventually go down again before it will go up again that's why I believed that OP should go for selling since there's still that future and potential opportunity to get back at a cheaper price.

You still have to survive to be able to benefit from such a thing, and there could be a lot of battles along the way, including some people getting caught into situations in which they get their coins taken from them (or they lose them through their own inadvertences). Another thing, if you have an income that is between $800 and $2,000 per month, but your expenses are $1k per month, then surely you have to figure out how aggressive that you can be in terms of how much bitcoin you buy every month. and surely you can be more aggressive in your BTC accumulation if you have other things in place, such as enough for expenses for 6 months or longer (which would be $6k) and some emergency funds, and so many of us have to figure out ways to make sure that we can stay in the game, including being careful regarding how much BTC we store with 3rd parties (maybe not allowing any more than 20% of all your stash to be with them at any given time), but even when we engage in our own private key management, we can make mistakes by being too simple or not researching sufficiently secure systems, or we could even overly complicate matters and lose our coins that way... also how much do you talk about bitcoin with people who might end up leaking your bitcoin amounts and/or security practices..... so I am not wanting to get off of topic regarding many things that could happen along the way, and we likely want to be as aggressive as we are able to be in terms of our own BTC accumulation, but at the same time, not so aggressive that we end up losing our coins or putting ourselves in to a position in which we have4 to sell some or all of our coins at a time that is not completely of our own choosing.. and my own proposal is that no one should ever be selling all of their coins, so whatever coins they do sell would likely not be a very large percentage of their overall stash.. and of course, people differ in their opinions on the topic of BTC stash management... and/or when/if/how to cash out.
I wish I do have that kind of income stream, that would be enough for me to live comfortably in my country since the price of goods here is expensive, if the case is that I will be having to spend my bitcoin for something urgents comes, I just hope that I have other means to make money and I have saved a bit of fiat to hopefully not use my considerable bitcoin stash for those stuff, I'm still young anyway and I am not that materialistic so I know that I'm going to be just fine as long as I don't get into anything bad like disease or accident. Regarding my security, I have the most simple storage in Electrum, no need to be too complicated about those stuff and at the same time it's enough security and I don't tattle tale, maybe when they ask me, I just show them a small amount of my stash that's separate from my main stash and I lie to them that I don't have a lot and that's all that I have so they don't pry too much.
1017  Economy / Speculation / Re: If bitcoin will accepted worldwide for legal then price rising $100k?? on: November 29, 2023, 01:27:59 AM
It's going to be more than just a 100k if everyone's using bitcoin as a currency because there's only so much bitcoin out there and so many expenses, I don't know if this is accurate but I've seen that there's about 34.7 trillion USD is spent globally now if you were to divide that to 18 million bitcoins accounting for lost bitcoins, then you'll probably see that the worth of bitcoin is going to be more than just a 100k even if say bitcoin only gets to be part of that half of that spending, bitcoin will still be worth more than 100k so fingers crossed that it's going to happen in the future and that when that happens, a lot of us would be hodling large amounts of bitcoin.
1018  Economy / Speculation / Re: The low support level may still be tested during 2023. on: November 28, 2023, 10:03:32 AM
Avoid more worries by increasing your optimism about the potential for good bitcoin prices ahead of the halving. I have removed $20k from my list of risks to consider since bitcoin broke $38k, but of course I can still consider some corrections that make many traders panic like a drop below $35k or $32k.
Even still, I think that you should know that there's bound to be a black swan that will probably happen before you can finally dispel that worry because I am telling you right now that the said event hasn't happened yet and the halving hasn't arrived yet so the possibilities are endless but fear not as that event can be a good time to buy bitcoin because it's a prelude to whatever positive is happening in the bitcoin market is going to happen.

Anyone considering to buy bitcoin based on possible upside scenarios should attempt to be somewhat realistic in terms of timeline and probabilities, and surely these are quite speculative type plays.
I guess you're right, forgot about the part that you need to be practical and realistic at how you're going to envision your investment in bitcoin. Maybe I am too optimistic and too hyped about bitcoin that I see 1 sat equal to 1 dollar as a future but hey, everyone can dream even the delusional ones right? Cheesy

~
Without getting into dollar debasement so much, yet I would think that the best of scenarios would take 50 years for $1 to equal 1 sat (that means more or less in today's dollar value), but the more likely timelines would be 100 years or more, and so there could be a variety of lesser scenarios that would have to play out before getting to those higher numbers, and I would think that even the lesser scenarios justify getting some kind of a position in bitcoin, whether you are on the whimpy side, such as 1% of your investment portfolio in bitcoin or if you are on the more aggressive side and put 25% of your investment portfolio into bitcoin.
Now that you've put that realism lens to my eyes, I would say that a million for 1 bitcoin is probably not going to happen in that 50 year timeline, maybe even at a 100 years, I don't think that's a possibility, that could only happen if people all over the world and the government has accepted that bitcoin's the real deal and I don't think it's ever going to happen because resistance to change will always be present among these people that are benefiting from the traditions.
1020  Economy / Economics / Re: Imaginary Future on: November 28, 2023, 07:50:51 AM
That's why you only invest what you can afford to lose, even if bitcoin is guaranteed to make you a profit if you HODL for a really long time, you shouldn't always go all in with the investment because you besides the potential that you might need some money for unforeseen events in your life or emergencies, there's also the fact that your mental health is suffering because all you think about is money, investment and financial freedom, you never think too much about your other needs which is detrimental to your health which can only be supplemented by tending to your other needs.
