Denver Nuggets should offer this guy some good money. He is the only consistent player in their roster when it comes to defense and it affect them so bad on the defensive end once he is gone.
They already let Bruce Brown go, they should not make one more mistake by letting KCP be snatched by other team because once he becomes their opponent, Murray will be stopped by him without any doubt.
Not that I am underestimating Murray but since KCP is already a good defensive player and the plus was he know Murray now as a teammate. His habits will be so visible to KCP.

I am having a hard time to find a news article that would tell the truth. It seems like most news outlets have a side and honestly some news are biased.

Anyway, I found this one.
Trump brags about debate performance while New York Times calls for Biden to drop out: Live
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-biden-presidential-debate-highlights-results-rally-b2571119.html?page=4
Biased or not?
Concerns flows about the age of Joe Biden and it's showing, honestly. I guess that debate made him lose some points. He is slower and sick while Trump still moves his lips like an Armalite.

Have you guys seen this?
Just for clarification.

Both meme coins plunged down after the debate. But I don't think that's all the reason behind it. It's meme coin, it should be worthless.

Did they talk about DPR? I might've missed it.

This is a cool thread and I think it's important that we talk about it. Gambling taxation is one of the largest money that comes in for one country's government and I think we should be optimistic about it. As long as the government are using it in the right way and not in their pockets.
Look at Vegas, full of lights, full of life, and of the best place for entertainment in the world. I think all that came from the taxes that the government received from them and we don't even know if these business owners are also contributing for the place to be safer and more accommodating.

That's one of the benefits of gambling that cannot be seen in plain view and yet we can still see many who are cursing them for ruining lives. It's on us as gamblers not on them.

Yes, and since he cannot join the group of those two running for President, he needs to act that is also about cryptocurrencies.
Here he goes.
Biden administration brings back past crypto adviser Carole House

Again, the same question. Why now? These guys, they are all funny.

It looks like the candidates for President are all targeting about cryptocurrencies because they know the people are hooked there so they are using this strategy to get their votes. I don't even know if it's working. People are wiser now especially those who are into crypto. Because you need to be wise or else you will be scammed or rug pulled.

I guess it's all about cryptocurrencies now and it's just normal that a new president should know something about it too.

Real winners knows when to withdraw, know when to give up, and knows when to say he had enough and let it go.
I've heard it many times before that there's only one way to be a winner in gambling. Once you win a large amount, walk away, never come back, not even a penny or a dollar spent in gambling again. That's a winner.

But I doubt that's easy to do. We always comes back because we are trying to repeat what happened to us but it just doesn't go that way for most gambler who are testing their luck.

Chair of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Gary Gensler sit with Bloomberg for 20 minutes to answer some deep questions.

SEC’s Gensler on the 2024 Agenda

"We do everything within the law."
Alright, in your own point of view. There's obviously some attacks that doesn't look right because he keeps on digging against them even though it's clear that there's nothing harm that was done.

Like what one of the comments in that link said, it could've been better if the interviewer ask questions that's a bit hard hitting questions.

Annmarie: Does it feel political to you?
Gary: Well, (chuckle).

I don't know who he is looking at his left side but he takes a lot of time there. I think the helper is there whenever he pauses and can't think of an answer.

Why now? Not when he is running for President last time and he won. Is it because of the hype and popularity of Bitcoin especially when the ETF was approved? Yes, there's no other reason for doing this.

I think Trump is trying to get the votes of all the Bitcoin maximalist and the supporters of Ross. And this is another way to bring down his opponent Biden because of the bad image of him in the cryptocurrency community.
But here is the problem, Trump is not so clean too, he was also against cryptocurrencies and just saying he has a change of heart. Well yeah, you will change your heart if you are running for president and trying to get more supporters. They made this politics like Hollywood, all fake, all drama, all scripted, and it's all to manipulate the votes.
Let's say he wins and release him, what's next?
Oh, and RFK Jr. said the same thing.

To quit when winning. When you are satisfied with the amount that you won, it's easier to cash it all out without feeling any regret. That's my opinion on that matter. While when we are losing it's gets harder and harder to stop because you are going for revenge and you want your money back at any way possible. This is actually where it all goes wrong when a gambler tries to chase his losses, he won't stop until he either get back all the losses or he want more win after he acquired the losses back.
Some winners might be greedy but if we have a bracket of when to withdraw then I think we will exit without any trouble.

Anything that is abused is wrong. That's why people are calling it an evil habit because there are those who abused it and never recovered. It's not far from drugs and alcohol where people becomes addicted to and was not able to stop it anymore without the help of a rehabilitation or a therapist.
What the man said was only right when he identifies the gambler who is addicted to it. But to just gamble looking for a bit of fun to get away from boredom is not evil at all. It's an escape from doing nothing the whole day especially those who want to take a rest and enjoy their weekends.

This is a problem that only the lottery outlet could answer. Also, I don't think there's an expiration date on the ticket. As long as the ticket is not damaged or anything, the winner could still claim his prize.
There are circumstances where a winner don't want to claim it yet for his own security. As I look at the link provided, the winning prize is not that much but I don't know why the lottery is not giving it to him. Only them could check the legitimacy of the ticket and I think they should've given it and didn't let the news came out. That's just stupid.

Holy mother of everything!
Who Pushed the SEC to Drop the Ethereum Lawsuit, and Why Is Gary Gensler Still Targeting Ripple (XRP)?

SEC Ends Ethereum 2.0 Investigation

https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/who-pushed-the-sec-to-drop-the-ethereum-lawsuit-and-why-is-gary-gensler-still-targeting-ripple-xrp/
But it has not reflected with the value of Ethereum yet.

Ripple Labs is not happy though. They have been fighting against SEC for a long time and this probably hurts the feelings of those who are supporting them.
But I think this is still a great news. Perhaps the chance for SEC dropping the cases of XRP is near too and that will be the time to celebrate.
But who knows, if it's Gary Gensler, there's uncertainty with his decisions and if he really have a beef with XRP, it will take a long time unless someone fires that guy.

I found this today. Mark Cuban might be right about this one.

Gary Gensler could ‘literally cost Joe Biden the election’ — Mark Cuban


https://cointelegraph.com/news/gary-gensler-could-literally-cost-joe-biden-cryptocurrency-us-presidential-election-mark-cuban

Crypto voters will be heard. Yes, I am sure of that.
And while Gary Gensler is so busy attacking crypto influencers, big crypto trading companies, and other that have something to do with cryptocurrencies in the US it will get a bad vibes to Joe Biden.
But it is said that Biden is looking for a way to use cryptocurrencies as means for donation in his campaign. I doubt many will be offering their help.

I usually ignore this type of accusations especially from new users here in forum. I don't want to read it because if you are brave enough you should be using your main account to face the problem. Not doing it on another account which will probably have less believers in it.

I've seen some who would come forward and tell their experience and it can easily be noticed and supported thanks to the courage he shown. It's true, we must not just believe any accusations that comes out because there are times they are just angry from the losses they experienced.

Thank you for that Dave.

Robinhood to buy crypto exchange Bitstamp for $200 million: CNBC Crypto World
"Expand it's global footprint."
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6jap6LtCb4

This is a damn big move.

"A good sign for the crypto industry."
Let's hear it from Elliott Chun of the Architect Partners.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7VzA_Y0euU
Jump to 4:00.


Is Robinhood also trying to get away from SEC? I think that's my question here. They are being cornered and politically attacked and I think they just said to themselves, "It's enough. We are buying something that moves outside US and you cannot touch us anymore." Something like that.

I like that the officials are not calling weak fouls but it must not wreck the game when there's a foul that needed to be called especially when the offensive player was forced to change his shooting form because of it.
I think the officials did not do great today, there's so many bad calls that should've been a let go, then there are weak calls that was called.
Consistency, that's their problem.
The Celtics might sweep the Mavericks this series but I hope the official will have a long meeting about all these questionable calls.

I don't think it's about the AI or anything, it's about the business, he is doing this to take out the competition and he want his own project to be the one injected on their products. That's one way on how to stop something to make a move, a threat.

It will. But what else is his option here in case Apple continue to use the said AI? I think he will have a hard time finding an equipment as good as Apple and it will probably just be a waste of resources if he continue to do so. That's an unwise move as a businessman just because of this kind of update.
If Apple will weigh the number of buyers of their product against the whole company of Elon, well I think there's more buyer outside that one company only.
It's his posts that is trying to stain the name of them which I think will hurt them becuase of the number of Elon's followers who might do the same.

Holy crap!
Elon Musk threatens to ban Apple devices from his companies
https://www.msn.com/en-sg/news/other/elon-musk-threatens-to-ban-apple-devices-from-his-companies/ss-BB1o0oES?ocid=BingNewsSerp#image=1

https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1800265431078551973

This is big coming from him. It could make an impact to the market of Apple because I bet most of their equipment are using an Apple brand but it's also going to hit him with his financials if ever he takes this leap. Changing all those equipment because of this will be a lot of money spending.
Again, the power of his words against a big company. This will be a big fight.

This is also where I side with them. Keeping the cryptocurrency community clean not taking everything down.
Scams, rug pull projects, and more are happening in the crypto space and they are not seen because they are just small projects. Yet, these developers are still making a ton because they keep on pulling the plug whenever they got the money and then make another to do it over and over again.
In this case, a celebrity advertised it so it was seen. What about the victims with average investments that becomes victim of low key projects that ain't seen on the spotlight? I think SEC's actions should be on this matter and not trying to break down legitimate projects that already  made their roots in the industry.

You need money, that's for sure. I cannot think of anything that cannot be done by money. It's always about it.
It's a good choice if you ask me. An online gambling casino is probably the best industry to make a lot of profits nowadays. I have even seen a lot of Vegas physical casinos that are switching to online gambling because of how they can reach more people without the need to go to their business place.
I think it's worth a lot of money but the returns will probably be good too because they won't be risking it if they don't think so.

Dude, that's the target on why he is boosting it. To make more money. I thought that was pretty obvious. Imagine doing it for no good reason. Just for fun. That will be the stupidest thing that he would do as one of the popular names in the world.

He didn't just talk bad, he sold a huge chunk of his investment, that is why.
Regarding his ego, well he is rich, most rich people have lots of that. But I don't think we can go against it because he has the brain, history, and business to back it up. All we could do is criticize him but if you are not a popular person, that won't matter to them.

Attention. He badly needs that. For a business to grow you must always be on the hype. What he is doing is trying to be on top of that hype so that his expensive products can be bought and it will grow more to more expensive items.

I am neutral when it comes to him. I think he is good for the world and yet can cause chaos too if not controlled right.
