The rugpull scheme often happens on new meme coins, so we must be careful to join new meme coins. However, it mostly happens when meme coins was hype, it was the time when Elon Musk often tweeted about Dogecoin in the last bullrun season. It is no longer a trend of meme coins, so people are rarely talking about meme coins anymore nowadays.

If there are people who still experienced losing money because of rugpull on new meme coins, it means those people never learned or never got the lessons from previous rugpull cases. It is clear that meme coins don't deserve to invest, they have no clear future and most of them are scams only.

Do you think the collapse of some banks was planned already?  
I don't know how many banks are needed, not sure if we should have fewer banks only. However, more banks mean competition, that's leads to better service/quality for the banks because they want to be the best. If we have fewer banks, there will be higher domination or a monopoly of a  few banks for the customers in certain areas. I don't think it will be a good sign for the future of banks.

Indeed. Hazard was a Chelsea superstar, he contributed many assists and goals for Chelsea in his era. His career was rising quickly and significantly in Chelsea, which made Real Madrid sign him at that time. Hazard also wanted to play at the highest level of football with more superstars like Ronaldo and Bale in Real Madrid. Sadly, Hazard often got injured and he failed to play with his best form again after he arrived in Real Madrid. I don't know what makes him drop severely his fitness and his performance. He may not fit to play with Real Madrid squad, or not suitable to play in La Liga. He must be very disappointed with his situation in Real Madrid, surely he also must regret his decision to move from Chelsea.

He decided the right way, it is not a good age anymore to play as a footballer. Recently, he was busy with his injury problem. So finally he realized that he is unable to play a longer time as a professional player. I'm sure Ibrahimovic will begin his journey as a coach soon. He seems still interested in football, he will be still involved in football field.

It is only his speculation, Bitcoin will stay as long as we have crypto market. Bitcoin cannot be separated from crypto world because it is the main coin. I believe crypto may disappear if we have no more Bitcoin. It is like the soul of all crypto coins, not only as the mother of crypto coins. Just imagine, who will trust other crypto coins if the main coin (BTC) dies?

Regarding the transfer fees, I know it is increasing but it still can be acceptable. I'm sure the transfer fees will be decreasing in the future, just keep patient until it decreases. In my opinion, OP thinks BTC will die because the price seems difficult to increase now, it is not about the transfer fees. I don't know how OP is really sure about that, he probably doesn't understand about the bearish-bullish season. He is not aware that we are still in the bearish season, that's why the price still can't increase quickly and significantly.

Not only about emotion, but he must also get a big lesson to avoid being greedy. He actually won $90,000 and he has an opportunity to stop betting temporarily. Ideally, he must enjoy more than 75% of the money and only bet again less than 25% of $90,000. Or he can start betting again with $5,000 - $10,000. I think it is enough to allocate for his next betting.

Another thing, OP has a lack of experience in managing his money. It is very risky for a gambler who has no ability to manage his money. A gambler can end up losing everything if never learn how to manage money.

Yep. God already gave him big money. He should thanks to God and stop playing temporarily. But he became greedy, he forget that luck won't come every time.  

Why do you prefer to support Gold only? Don't you want to support Satoshi's goal to make BTC as global electric cash (digital currency)?
I think BTC deserves to be a global reserve currency, it is already widely spreading around the world. Most people are familiar enough with Bitcoin, it is no longer something new. We must know that Bitcoin is already more than 10 years exists. But it cannot be a single global currency, the world also needs physical currency which can be a second option when people have no ability to use digital currency. I think we can support both BTC and Gold to be global reserve currencies.

Do you think BTC can't solve the debt issue? I think both Gold and BTC have the chance to solve it. BTC is volatile now, but the value may be more stable if it can be a global reserve currency.

Thanks for your appreciation, mate.  
The taste isn't too bad even though it's a little tough.
I think there is something lacking in the dough. Or it may be overcooked.
However, you are right that the shape is okay. It looks like a Pizza.  

I think it is just about fun, don't take it too seriously. Even if we don't win the prize, we already celebrate the event together at least. I think it is the point of this event. For a person like me, the chance to win is impossible, so no problem at all if my Pizza doesn't count as the participants for the winning candidates.  

To Be Honest, I don't have a Discord account. I may try to create it first if it is really needed.

It is not your prediction but it is the fact that often happens related to Bitcoin halving. 
In theory, the price increases because Bitcoin circulating supply will decrease during the halving process. So, we have a bigger demand, it exactly triggers the price to increase significantly. Well, it is a common theory that people often said: supply-demand on economic theory related to price movement. You must be familiar with that theory, right?

People do panic buying because they don't want to miss the chance to earn profits. The hype of bullish season makes people optimistic to buy more after halving. Everyone understands that halving is a sign of the green market season.

Even if the price reaches $50k in Q4 of this year, it doesn't automatically achieve $150k in 2024 or 2025. We must be careful if there is bad news coming, it may ruin the bullish season. So, the price can't increase as expected.

It is gambling, there is no way to determine how often to get the chance for winning. Luck is one of the big factors in gambling besides the system has been set by the owners to make people hard to win. Because of this matter, we have no way to get the chance to earn money regularly. So, how can someone expect to earn $100 daily? Not sure how OP can assume about earning $100 daily, he may be a new gambler and not really understand how gambling works. If OP is an experienced gambler, he must know that earning daily is a bit impossible. Moreover, if he expects to get money of a certain amount every day.

But not everyone can be the owner of a casino. Building a casino requires big money and not every casino can be successful. I assume people won't see this as an alternative, most people only want to earn money instantly. Building a casino will take time, hard effort, good management skills, and big money. Only a few people have the ability to build casinos, most of them never think to do this.  

I guess most gamblers who try to catch a steady income in gambling will end up with addiction. The dream of a steady income will trigger them to gamble more and more. They think they will earn more if they do more attempts but it even leads to more losses. Finally, they will try to get back the losses by playing more often. They are not aware that they are already addicted to gambling.

Controlling emotion is a must, a trader has no ability to deal with the market situation if he can't control emotion. Crypto market is unpredictable, it can easily change in a short time. Not everyday crypto market is green, sometimes it turns into a red market. If someone trades with emotion, he probably easily sells for losses. When the market trends change, he will panic selling.

It is true that there are many successful traders but it doesn't automatically make us succeed as well. However, we can make it as our inspiration to do harder efforts. It also ideally triggers us to believe that there is a real chance for making profits through trading.

Agree. We can't rely on 1 trading strategy only. 1 strategy may not be suitable for a different market condition. When the market is green, I prefer to use day trading. While the market is red, I prefer to use scalping trading. This is just 1 example of using a different strategy in a different market situation.  

Does China already change its regulation related to the ban on crypto? If they don't change it, it is clear that China only plays with us. It is difficult to trust China, they only take advantage of the situation. Not sure what they plan by trying to support some crypto projects, but it won't be a big step to beat the US in crypto field. If China is serious to support crypto again, they won't support some crypto projects only but they will revoke the ban status. Considering this matter, I also doubt if China really begins to support crypto. Although I guess there are many China people who are still involved in crypto, the government seems hard to change the ban. China is not a democratic country, the government doesn't easily accept people's proposals.

Saya baru join, tapi Pizza sangat sederhana yang penting ikut.
Minder kalau lihat hasil kreasi yang lain, saya hanya tim hore.

Itu wajib post ke Discord?
Atau kalau cuman mau meramaikan tidak post di sana tidak apa2 kan.

Betul. Ada baiknya yang thread ini dilock karena ini kontes tahun sebelumnya. Post-post terkait kontes Pizza day 2023 bisa dipindah ke threadnya bayu7adi. Tapi tunggu dulu konfirmasi persetujuan agan Chikito.

Happy pizza day everyone. I hope I'm not too late to join this fun contest.  

This is a very simple Pizza only, sorry it is not a very familiar food in my town.

I'm trying my best to join this contest. I know I have no skills to make a Pizza, forgive me if it is not a great Pizza.

You are right. Investing in meme coins is riskier, the chance for profits is too small. There are already many failed meme coins, they have no clear future and grow only with the hype. Although Dogecoin and Shiba Inu can be popular for a long time, they may disappear at any time if there is no hype for meme coins anymore. It is the same as pepecoin, it may be hype now but no one guarantees how long it will last in the future. Even worse the PEPEWX, it is just like another form of pepecoin. No reason for this coin to survive a long time, it won't ever be bigger than pepecoin.

It becomes interesting that there are 3 top clubs joining the race for Vlahovic. I think there will be more clubs to try negotiating with Juventus for Vlahovic as well. But if Bayern Munich offers a good price and they are serious to sign Vlahovic as their main striker, I'm sure Vlahovic probably chooses Bayern Munich. Every player wants to join a champion club as Bayern Munich, Vlahovic must dream of it also. Moreover, if Vlahovic can get a regular position as a striker there. He must be eager to move to Bayern Munich in the next transfer window. I doubt if Vlahovic wants to move to Chelsea, he seems to feel worried about winning any trophy there. While Man United may target more top strikers, Vlahovic may not be the main player there.

Yep. ATH mostly reaches after BTC halving, ideally everyone must understand that it is unlikely to happen this year. But it is difficult to predict the maximum or minimum price to achieve this year, we don't know what to happen in the next few months. However, since there is still a lot of time before the end of the year, it is very possible that the price will rise above $50k. I only expect that the sideways won't last a very long time and there is no huge dump anymore. If there is more positive news in the next months, we may reach $50k sooner. 

Fear is normal, everyone must ever feel that feeling for the first time investing in crypto. I also feel it when I was a beginner, I ever feel that how if the crypto disappears after I spend money on some crypto coins. Moreover, I read some cases about many people getting losses with huge money at that time. But after a few years in crypto, I realize that it was just  FUDs. There are people who want we sell crypto with cheap prices, then they will take an advantage if crypto coins drop the prices drastically. You must understand that this way is used by whales to manipulate crypto market. 

For Bitcoin, it is not really proper for a short-term investment, you need to hold for at least 4 years for bigger profits. Unless you have big capital, you can get enough profits by holding it for months. If it is for the short term, I prefer to choose altcoins. They have higher volatility, so we have the potential for bigger profits in a short time.

Why don't you choose other top altcoins? You already have ETH and BNB, right? Aren't you interested in ADA, MATIC, SOL, DOT, and TRX? I think these altcoins are also potential altcoins and they look strong & safe enough because they have big market caps already. Instead of buying new altcoins, I think it is better to choose the top altcoins.

Among those altcoins, I only know ARB which has a good potential for the future. This project has a good product, they offer the same quality as Ethereum. We can speculate that this project can be the competitor of Ethereum and other top projects in the future. If we consider its price, it is also at a lower price now. After it reached its ATH on Mar 23, 2023 ($8,67), it drops to $1,22 now. It is a great opportunity to buy this coin at a lower price again. It probably skyrockets again in the next altcoins season. However, it is just my humble speculation, just ignore it if you don't agree with me.

More skills and playing style won't guarantee Messi to have a longer career than Ronaldo. What if he is getting often to be injured? In many cases, fitness makes a player retire sooner. If you compare Messi and Ronaldo, it is clear that Ronaldo has better fitness although he is older. Ronaldo seems to continue his career above 40 years old. While Messi, I'm not sure he can play more than 5 years from now.

Indeed. Some top clubs in Saudi are interested to sign Messi and they can make offers with huge money. However, we don't know whether it makes Messi interested or not. Not every player wants to play in Saudi Pro League and money isn't everything for a rich player like Messi. Messi has the option to move to another club in Europa or return to his country.
