What's good about the Pistons is that they have lots of players who can step up on offense if their all-star player doesn't have a good night or if their all-star player/s is/are out.

Robinson, Harris, Thompson, and even some of the bench are helping on offense as well. Also that Daniss Jenkins is also stepping up as well, and having some career-high games as well with Cade being out because of an injury. Overall, the future of the team is good, and I would also say that they're the team that can compete against the likes of Boston, Cleveland, and the Knicks. They just need to develop their players, and gain some playoff experience, and they're good to go.

Nobody's talking about this, but are there anybody here that are surprised about how the Raptors are playing this regular season? I mean I didn't expect them to be at the top 6 of the standings right now after an awful performance last year. If you will ask me which Eastern team surprised me the most, I'll pick the Raptors because of how good they are this year compared to last year.

Safe haven asset = Store of Value right now? It might be connected, but it's 2 completely different things.

Gold is a safe Haven asset, while Bitcoin? It's going there, but not right now. Also, that small data isn't enough to say that Bitcoin can be the safe haven asset now - and even better than Gold. Let's also not forget the fact that Bitcoin went down from $126,000 to as low as $59,000 in just a few months while Gold on the other hand continuously went up to as high as $5,000. How will you argue with that then?

You're just looking at the performance of both assets in just a span of one month. Gold's price went down only because sellers need to sell their holdings. Simple as that. Let's say that there are many people who want to accumulate Bitcoin because they believe that it's already at the bottom, and they believe that 2029 will be the start of the new bull market hence, buying it now and storing it for the future.

Is Bitcoin a safe-haven asset then? Not this time, and with what happened with Gold, even many are saying that it's a safe haven asset, I don't consider it as well.

Both. It gave me stress, but at the same time, it improved my life MASSIVELY.

For me, my life would be different now if I'm not into crypto. If I didn't involve myself into crypto, I might be an employee out there working for 8 hours just for the minimum wage, and kind of struggling in life. I'm not saying that I'm not struggling right now despite of me being into crypto, but my life would be more miserable. The stress is worth the benefits I would definitely say that. Crypto opened a lot of opportunities to me, and because of that, I made money that I couldn't do if I work as an employee for around 2-3 years

I experienced stress of course especially when I lose money because of trading, and because of my mistakes when it comes to buying the coins that I want to hold, but overall, cryptocurrency made my life way better.

Correct me on this one, but I haven't see any illegal gambling website that accepts cryptocurrencies that are being used in our country. Most of them are depositing using our local wallets like GCash and Maya and even though they've removed it already, there's still a way to deposit using these wallets, and that's thru agents inside that are acting as a third party.

I hate to say this, but the number of gamblers getting addicted to gambling is increasing rapidly, and it's affecting many people in a negative way. I'm not against gambling in general, but always, always gamble responsibly. Illegal gambling websites will always pop up no matter what happens, and we've already seen some online influencers promoting them despite the fact that the authorities are trying to ban them. The best thing that they can do is to just warn other people about these influencers promoting illegal gambling websites. As for the impact, I don't think that it's that huge because let's face it. Those legal gambling sites are still earning way more compared to these illegal gambling websites.

Height and reach advantage matters in this fight... at least for me, and Fundora isn't just a normal boxer that's amateur. Yes, Thurman can be considered a great fighter, but Fundora is as well that's why he's a title holder, and he's holding it for a reason - he can fight toe-to-toe with his opponents. He's not some kind of title holders like Barrios where he's too weak to hold a title for very long.

I'm also leaning on Fundora to defend his title on this one. It's a bit unfortunate that this didn't create that much noise online... or maybe it's just me who felt it that way.

It will just be the same as to what happened with NFTs. Also, with how easy it is to generate AI pictures nowadays, people can just generate pictures here and there, register it as an NFT and then sell it. It will be oversaturated that majority of them don't have any value at all. A person can just generate a thousand AI pictures, register it as an NFT then sell it.

Some might have a value, but most will not. If this happen, this will be what I call as "Meme coin Mania 2.0" where anybody can just generate their own picture and sell, same thing when anybody can just create their own meme coin then market it to have investor to sell it. Will it become viral? It will be, but for just a short amount of time because let's face it. There will still be investors that will try and buy those AI-generated NFTs for them to resell it, and that's why many investors are losing their money.

Overall, I will not be surprised if there will be people that will try and do this, but I don't think that it will become a mainstream media just like what happened with meme coins when pump.fun became popular.

They said it to Binance, and they did, but those who are a bit techy know some loopholes, and they can still access it. Same with MEXC. I'm not saying that it's the same, but techy people will always find a way to access something, and this isn't different at all.

While I don't believe that they'll completely ban Roblox on April 3rd, I still believe that this will have a big help towards the parents of the kids because majority of them might not even know the loopholes that they can do to still have access to the game. Downloading APKs will help them gain access still, right? This move by them targets those kids out there who are being exploited and some are even going into some sexual things and if you're the parent, you will find it very disturbing. We've seen some news of kids raging because of some games that even parents are having a hard time stopping them.

I'm not sure though if how the games resembles gambling, or will the government ban it because of gambling-related issues? I haven't heard one TBH.

Kung isa ka sa mga naunang mag-invest or yung tinatawag nilang "PIONEER" talagang mababawi mo yung pera mo sa loob ng maikling panahon. Ang mahihirapan eh yung mga huling magbabayad. Alam na natin to. Typical ponzi scheme at inaattract lang ang mga investors sa mga GUARANTEED payments at wins.

Normal lang na may mag-defend dahil umaasa silang may makukuha silang payouts. Nakita na natin to noon pa. Mga investment opportunities na nang-aakit ng mga kababayan natin tapos may mga mag-dedefend at sasabihin na hindi ito scam blah blah blah pero magugulat na lang sila na at one point, wala na yung mga pera nila. Kaya tayo ang gustong gusto targetin ng mga scammers dahil napakababa ng financial literacy natin at hindi alam ng karamihan kung ano ang scam sa hindi.

Wag na lang nating silang pakealam or wag tayong magcomment ng against sa pinaglalaban nila. At the end of the day, matatalino tayong tao dito at alam natin na scam yan. Fortunately, wala akong kakilala na nag-invest jan at TBH, hindi ko pa nga naririnig yang investment na yan, pero kahit narinig ko di rin naman ako mag-iinvest. Hintayin na lang natin na maglabas ang SEC patungkol jan at pag nangyari yun, bilang na ang araw ng investment na yan dahil weeks pagkatapos, baka sarado na yan.

Sometimes, the chemistry just doesn't work between the import and other players thus, losing streak happens, and we know that this isn't new when it comes to conferences that has imports like what we have right now.

Looking at the standings, I'm also leaning towards the fact that Converge might also change their import if they will not wins. I mean they're 1-3 right now, and with how star-studded their team is right now, it seems like their performance as a whole isn't what many are expecting. They have a good roster and probably way better than most teams out there. I wonder if their import has a problem as well but going back to Magnolia, it's good that they changed their import already so they can try and at least get a spot on the playoffs. The guest team hasn't won a game as well, so I wonder how this will affect them in their future games.
