If you have been dca’ing since last Ath I think most people would be happy with a 4-5x which would put it around 100-125k$. I’m hoping for way more and am optimistic, wouldn’t it be amazing for it to breach 250+k$. Good luck all on your investments wherever we land  sounds really good price for even those that accumulated too late, but honestly i kept on wondering whether that price mark could truly be achieved after all if we see from the previous bullrun, how bitcoin can achieve as far as $100k which is quite massive honestly was solely for the reason of the participation of those institutional investors in which we know bringing about billions of investment into the market. thats also why bitcoin market capitalization was growing so massively back then, but i wonder if there will be second wave of such trend now that elon's company are dumping their assets to the market. but they could be making buy back in the future though, i guess it depends on just how well the market turning out to be. but if btc truly surpass $100k then that will be massive gain for most of us honestly. I think it's going to be like 6-7x, so most likely it will be around $150-$180k. Nevertheless I would say that 6 digits will be the norm in the next bull run. Of course this is just a prediction on my end, but who knows, if this happen then it could be a massive profits for anyone of us. Not sure what you meant by second wave, but there are speculations that we will have like 2 bull cycles that never happen. So with that, I don't even think of someone like Elon Musk to affect the market. It will be just the retail investors and then institutional money flowing in the ecosystem next bull run. |

Here is the highlights for Frank Martin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_oVTxr_mRgHe is good, no doubt about it and he was being trained by Derrick James. But I do think that he hasn't fought a opposition as smart as Shakur is. He is a southpaw and Shakur has a good record fighting lefty. On offense he is good but his chin was never tested and no one he fought are hard puncher All that he fought were patsies and low-level fighters Frank Martin will be in the biggest surprise of his life when suddenly he finds himself an opponent who can take a punch who can counter who can allude a punch. I don't see this fight any different from fighters Shakur fought in the past, but he needs to look impressive here if he wants Haney he will be in line for major titles even title unification if he knocks out a fighter with an impressive record, even though the record is not something you can all A level record. It's a matter of who has the better offense because Shakur isn't a big KO threat. We can expect that his opponent will survive the full 12 rounds. He only has a 50% KO rate, so I think Martin will be able to go the distance. However, I doubt if Martin can outscore Shakur since the latter boxes like Mayweather, who is hard to hit due to his quickness and high ring IQ. I guess that is the only advantage of Frank Martin because he will have a full 12-round chance because Shakur is not that type of boxer who has a devastating knockout power. After that, it falls on him alone if how will he outsmart Shakur inside the ring because if we're talking about chances, Shakur will always have an upper hand even against boxer who is a KO artist because he can think clearly what to do and uses his speed to avoid punches that could ended a fight much sooner. Yes, Shakur too is too intelligent to fall for that trick to engage Martin and fight him in his own game. I think Shakur will used his boxing skills here and it will be displayed with a total dominant win via 12 rounds. Maybe Martin will have some rounds to win with his flash skills but I doubt that it can win against the technical skills of Shakur. With that, I will vote for Shakur to win by decision as well. |

A lot of talk about Christian Wood and I agree it is a good signing, but I still don’t think he starts or even replaces Rui when it comes to minutes. Rui had a great season last year and I think Christian Wood will likely get garbage minutes in comparison. I still say he’s an insurance policy in case Anthony Davis goes down.
More of a back-up Center for AD. That's his role. When Davis is on the bench, he will be the one who will sub depending on the situations. I agree that Wood has been a great piece when he's in the Rockets many years ago, and played well there, but ever since he got traded, he became a role player, and sometimes he doesn't even play. Like what you're feeling, Rui already had a terrific season since he got traded to the Lakers. Just imagine if the Lakers' roster after the all-star is what their roster is when the season started. I doubted that they will just be at the 7th spot at the end of the season. From 13th at the start, to ended the season at 7th. I will not be surprised if this current roster of the Lakers now will be a championship contender, and as for Wood, he will be the one replacing Davis if just in case he got injured, so this might be a good thing for him to showcase his skills. I highly doubt that he would be a backup at all. AD is a natural PF, and he has talked about how much he hates playing at the Center position not because of offense, but because at Defense he has to guard really big guys and he doesn't do that well, he is a blocker, not a post-up stopper. This means that we could see Wood and AD playing together a lot of minutes. Obviously there will be moments when one of them is playing and the other is not, I do not think that they will be benched together and put to game together at the same times, but I do believe that the minutes they spend together will be more than they spend sitting down. Lakers do not have a proper C right now and Wood could fill that role very well. Maybe for that statement they get a legit center with low risk since they can wave him out easily since the given contract is low if they didn't get good chemistry with Wood. For now they already have solid roster so I guess many are convince that this is a championship team already so hopefully they will not get a huge upset and exit on early rounds since this is really embarrassing knowing that they are the one create a big trades and roster changes. Oh wait, they already have Jaxson Hayes right? I mean a young athletic guy that will play the center position. And with the acquisition of Wood which is also a pure center, then most likely AD will play the PF because that's how he is built, and maybe we can see more iso play for him in the block this season. So they are pretty solid now, they have 2 big men that can play legitimate center position, and that can shoot the ball outside. We gonna see Lakers somehow dominating the paint or in the rebounding department and then start their fast break attack. |

^^ It's no surprised that Filipino boxers spar against each other, I mean they are going to support and so we have seen two great champion in Magsayo and Tapales sparring and trying to get as much experience specially for Tapales as he might have a upcoming fight against Inoue.
Although the fight has been scheduled already, we haven't heard though the official announcement. Nevertheless it will not hurt if Marlon Tapales will also prepared or preparing because anytime, the fight could happen.
It helps to build better stamina, knowing Magsayo with really solid combinations. If they will take this sparring seriously, I think it will help a lot, as Inoue is expected to have that strong type of punches. I think it's more of how Tapales can handle power, because as you have said, Inoue is powerful that he can even go up in weight and carry it. However, Magsayo has some heavy hands too so it will be a good experience and they can see if he has the chin to handle it. I like the way Pinoy champ supporting another one, both can boost their skills from one another,
hopefully Tapales will learn things from how Magsayo play his strategy and execute his own
style of fighting.
It's deeply rooted on them, they love to help each other out so that there will be more Pinoy that can be a champion again. And for sure Manny Pacquiao might have visited them to give them the motivation to come up big in every fight. |

^We did drop to $25k again at the start of September, so yeah we might be looking for sideways pattern again as the sentiments seems to be negative. But surprised today, price going up to $26k and so with that, I haven't followed what is the news that put investors to invest some money and push the market price above it's support line of $25k.
But as you have said, oh, September is a bad month, but since it's the 'ber month, I was just thinking that investors might be preparing already for the big haul next year and prepare for the block halving. So yeah, let's see how it goes for September as we are entering the 2nd week this Monday and hopefully we can maintain $26k-$27k.

If the conversion rate is high, USD in the bank is actually better. But the choice of banks in my country that allow to deposit foreign currency is very few and I think the process is more complicated than getting local currency. I personally don't want to pursue only one characteristic benefit such as complete control while ignoring other potential disadvantages. Suppose I have to incur additional exchange fees to local fiat because, using foreign currency for spending isn't permitted in my country.
To avoid incurring excessive fees through conversion into USD in a bank deposit particularly for those in countries where the dollar can't be used or accepted locally for purchasing of goods and services the best alternative should be to hold it in stable coins retaining value for your money. All you will doing is to be abreast with the market to be in touch with current issues about such stable coin. That would still work for bitcoin as well. If you keep it in bitcoin then you could end up making a big profit when it goes up as well. If it drops, all you would lose would be 10% or so because that's how much it usually drops at most, we are at 26k or so levels, a 2.6k fall would make it go under 24k, I do not think that it will get there, which means that holding at bitcoin would be better and it could reach above 30k and if it reaches more than that and does a big bull run that is even better. That's why it is quite important to reach those levels, we should be careful about it. I get that it is not going to be that easy, but we need to be careful for sure. It is definitely something that we could do eventually. But that could be just paper lose? I mean if you are not selling it and just seeing your portfolio going down, then I guess if it still good in my opinion as everything is in paper. But the problem is that when you sell your bitcoin and then hedge it to like stable coin or withdraw it totally in USD and save it to the bank. With that, obviously it's going to be a lose for you specially if the price of bitcoin goes up in the next coming years as we all know that the catalyst for a bull run is going to happen next year (block halving). So it's not best to put it to stable coin or even USD, in my opinion. |

I would like to see Jerwin becoming champion again but I actually voted for Takuma by decision. Jerwin is going to get schooled if he is not bringing something new to his technique.
He faced two losses against the same opponent, Fernando Daniel Martinez. Given that Takumi's upcoming opponent might have a different fighting style, there might not be a pressing need for him to change his own style. Both camps will undoubtedly study their opponent and develop a strategy they believe will work best. Honestly, I haven't observed anything particularly exceptional from Takumi, and despite Jerwin facing some challenges lately, I still believe he has what it takes to be victorious in this match. It's quite too late for Jerwin Ancajas to learn a new technique just to increase his chances against Takuma Inoue and to the other guys in this weight class, as they say, you cannot teach the olds dogs to learn some new tricks. I say that Jerwin will stick to what he knows and will just study Takuma even further to increase his chances rather than perfecting a new technique that doesn't even guarantee anything, instead, it will put him to a risk because he's not even accustomed to it. I guess not new technique, but some fighting style, as we have seen him falling in love with his one punch knockout that they change the fight on his favor. But Takuma is more of a boxer, not a brawler type so it will be a contrasting clash of styles between the two. And with that, if Jerwin, will rely on his power, it might take him the full twelve rounds just to land that one solid punch. So at least adjust his style with the type of fight that Takuma will offer to him. I agree and furthermore, it's kind of risky for him too if he will use the same style which he is known for when he was still in the lower weight class as I think that it's one of the few reasons why he lost twice against Martinez because he did let himself to be an open book to the opposing camp. And in this case, we can assume already that Takuma is also working to counter those style because even if that might be predictable already but it's still deadly if he will get himself hit by it. And what Ancajas needed to do right now is to be versatile enough so that he won't be predicted that easily specially in this case where he has an advantage. Yes, I guess those two losses against Martinez is already a wake up call for Ancajas to somewhat not just rely on his power but be versatile and learn to adjust to the strengths and weakness of his opponents. If his opponents shows strength let's say in counter and in defense, then Ancajas shouldn't be the aggressive. If he found a loophole and weaknesses to his opponents then he should take advantage of it and then get the win. So for sure fans of Ancajas are very excited about this fight because they might think that he has a good chance to win against the brother of Naoya even if the fight is in Japan. |

Sad to see the United States get eliminated before even reaching the Final in the FIBA World Championships. While I don’t think these were the best players we could have sent, it seems like USA’s domination of basketball is losing its grip. They’d better send our best to win the gold at the next summer Olympic Games.
Not the strongest but I think the decent roster to fight for gold medal but they come up short and left behind by 2 points. This is huge upset to them since fans really believe that they are the one will reach up to the finals easily but the germans cut those expectation and show up some great dedication to beat up the giants then take home the win for their country. Guess this is better luck next time for team USA and for sure next world cup they might think about sending more stronger roster and also veterans that can help their world cup run. They've been losing grip though not just in this FIBA but years ago, just look at who is the last MVP in the last couple of years, it's all European or at least not-American, Giannis, Jokic and then Joel Embid. And then they sent just a decent player, there are no superstars in the line up except just players of pure hype. And so I'm not surprised if team that have been playing for so many years beat the US and Canadians for that matter. |

Betting possibly started anywhere in the world not just by the Romans. It feels like a natural human nature for people to test their predicting skills. Two kids in some settlement somewhere may have bet to outrun each other on their way to the river or something like that or people on local community games. Those other people were not just as powerful as the people who claim to have recorded it first, again "a rich man's account is what is taken over the poor man's own."
Yeah, it's more on just wanted to see how everything can be predicted and then with the involvement of money in any sports, it become so big. Nevertheless, it's good to see the history though on how it involved to the current state of sports betting. Now it's totally different, there are the basic Money Line bet, and then the spread and others like parlays and odds become computed. But obviously, the odds still favor sports bookies, but that's how it is though. They are in the business of making money and so they will have to do everything to have the advantage. |

The Lakers have signed forward Christian Wood to a 2 year deal. Christian had a decent year last year averaging 16 & 7. I’m not sure how he’ll fit into the lineup but maybe he’s a little extra insurance in case something happens to Anthony Davis. Wood did dominate the Lakers in the Christmas game last year…
Good, I thought that he will be in the Warriors, but I guess Lakers is not that bad for Wood to be a destination team. Yeah, most likely it he will be some insurance for Davis, if ever AD got injured or something, at least there will be someone to cover the Center/PF department for the Lakers unlike last year. Decent stat but he was not a impact to the Mavericks last year and I think he struggled with the rotation and chemistry with the players and it's good though that he has been released and then pick up by Lakers for a 2 year deal. Maybe he is a slight downgrade from Davis (just a bit though). I mean, both can dominate the paint and can shoot from outside, so it looks like he can fit into the chemistry needed for the Lakers team to work smoothly. Davis' minutes need to be managed, as they cannot afford to miss him in the playoffs. So, having Christian Wood, who is known for his offensive skills, I think he'll shine with the Lakers. The advantage the Lakers have is their big lineup, so the defensive and rebounding liabilities for Wood may not be as challenging. Christian Wood is not on the same level as Anthony Davis but at a minimum contract of just over $2 million next season, that's already a steal. His stats deserved a double-digit contract so this is another big achievement in terms of the Lakers' negotiating strategy. Wood is a good shooter outside and inside so he is definitely another offensive player to not take for granted. He is also in mid 20s which means he can still be developed, especially his defense. The Lakers are really doing well this off-season with very good additions. And with Bron still playing at an elite level, this team will definitely give the top favorite teams a run for their money. Yes, they are not in the same pay grade, and obviously he will be used as a back up for AD in case something happen to him. And so it was interesting to see him with the Lakers though, he didn't have a good playing time with the Dallas and really might not be a good fit for them. But I do agree, they retain some of their core, and then trade or shift others and then give way to Wood to fill the gap for them. So it will be a different Lakers and hopefully Lebron can still perform at high level at his age. |

With regards to the potential Canelo vs. Bud next year, it sounds crazy but really doable if Canelo approves it. If I were Canelo, I would take it since it is the biggest fight in boxing right now. He will be bashed a lot though if he wins and it could be worse if he loses to someone who moves up two divisions. I like Bud to win but I believe Canelo will be too much and destroy him.
No doubt, it would be the best fight ever since the guy will not hesitate to move just for the sake of beating Canelo and it will be the best opportunity for him as well because he won't need to sacrifice much since he is comfortable in their weight division, it would be best for him to accept such fight in order to fully raise their flag and we will seeing another huge fight next year once again. Yes, and it will be a big challenge on the part of Crawford though, again as we said, he will be going up in 3 weight classes and facing one of the best Super middle weight, not just in this era. But I like the what BoMac has said, he will also take this as an opportunity, on how he will outsmart Canelo's trainer which is Eddy Reynoso. So this is not like just a fight for this boxers, but for their trainer as well. BoMac outsmart Derrick James when Crawford beat Spence. And BoMac could be running for a obvious Trainer of the Year with that victory. It hasn't been done before, so for now we can say that he has 0% to win against a Canelo Alvarez at 168 lbs, his prime weight. Heck even the 154 lbs in Charlo, who talks that he can beat Canelo, might be in a big surprised to see him in the ring. He is taller, but Canelo is well built and we haven't seen anyone crack that chin. So the odds are stack up against Crawford. As for the trainer of the year, yes, back to back wins, first Crawford and then last weekend Eubank Jr over Liam Smith. Although there were news reports that BoMac was stop at the airport because the security find some guns on his luggage. |

It might a good fight in paper, but I'm seeing Stevenson winning in the hands of the judges.
Same thought here mate, Shakur is the next big name in boxing if handled properly. With this announcement, his supposed fight with Loma is off by now but the good thing with Frank Martin is that the latter has no loss on his record, this might add curiosity on some so that they will watch this fight but the truth is, this is a fight where Shakur will win no matter what as he can't afford to have a backslide on his glamorous career. I agree, he is about to hit the prime years, and we all know that high caliber athletes when they are in their prime are hard to beat. And as much as Frank Martin is good, surrounding himself with good promoter like Spence and trainer in James, it's going to be hard for him to stop Shakur and it might be a bad timing for him to face Shakur at this point. The thing with Martin is that he lack the experience, seen his highlights but there are no known boxers in his resume. While Shakur since before the lower weight has face a lot of great boxers and he all beat them technically, and some with body shots. |

It's absolutely fine to spend your coins if you are interested in buying stuff with it because that way it will help to spread the adoption at mass level apart from just holding.I know we see it as investment asset but we should not eliminate the base cause of its creation which was to make transaction.You can hold and spend at the same time if you wish to do so. Yes exactly spending bitcoin for buying other goods is a better way to spread the news and information about bitcoin but everyone does not know about bitcoin and in some counties there is a ban on bitcoin so in those areas bitcoin cannot be used for payment method. Using bitcoin as both a payment method as well as an investment method are beneficial but investment is under your control like when you want to sell and when you want to buy is your decision but in a case of payment so the seller will choose whether he accepted your bitcoin or is not familiar with it. That's how it was designed in the beginning, as a payment scheme, like to be used in online to buy things. Some people might have known bitcoin for years already, but are afraid to buy or hold because of the negative connotations that some media has portrayed it. And about buying though, one drawback that online sellers might see is how volatile it is and the price. And that's why majority now shifts their focus in the last 5 years or so in bitcoin becoming as a store of value, just like in the pandemic where it was a hedge against their wealth. And then some companies as well, putting their balance sheet into bitcoin. |

The first fight against Donaire, it was the last time that we have seen Inoue almost lost the fight. It was a hard fought give and take and he absorbs all what Donaire can bring to the point that he suffered a broken orbital bone and yet he pushes for the fight and win it.
But there are fans or even boxers who thought that Inoue lost that fight. If I'm not mistaken, Roy Jones Jr was one of them. I remember as well though, that Jone is a big fan of Donaire so he might be biased on that.
Inoue, though, has a solid chin, as he was able to withstand the hard punches he received from Donaire. Maybe Inoue was overwhelmed at that time, considering Donaire is a popular boxer and he respected his power. However, Inoue made the right adjustment, using his jab effectively to dictate the fight. In the later rounds, when Donaire got tired, Inoue hit him with his signature punch that made Donaire kneel down. It was an intense fight, but the second half was dominated by Inoue, which I think he deserved to win and become a champion in that fight. And that fight might lead Inoue to believed that he can win every fight. Sort of it motivates him, because of you look at it, if he can take the best punch of Donaire in 118 lbs and not get knockout, then for sure his next opponents can't knock him out. And true to this, after this fight, all of his wins is via knockout as no one can stood against his power punches, not even Donaire in their rematch. So Tapales will really need everything here to be able to pull an upset otherwise it will be Inoue again with his second weight class unification. |

As for me I dislike when gamblers complain of their losses, meanwhile you hear them complain when they are getting winnings.
What about you, what do you dislike ?
Same here, I dislike gamblers who are ok if they are winnings but shout scam and cheaters if the losses. We all know that gambling activity result is random and no one is certain whether they will come out with the winnings or losses. This is what I heard when I'm playing roulette, whether online or offline. In online, you will read in chats that they are screaming it's all a scam, on the contrary, maybe the next roll of the ball, they are going to win some money. and most of all, I hate gamblers that streams and influence people into believing that gambling is the easiest way to make money just to get people to be their referrals. This kind of influence streaming is somehow misleading people that can result to severe losses and emotional damage since they had been mislead by this kind of gambling influencers.
I think we can call them delusional though, we all know that gambling is not the way to make money. And even if you win some, you will eventually lose in the long end. And so those who really believed and those influencing others to gamble? I really don't know what to call them but perhaps they want to bring others to also become addict just like them. |

The current network congestion caused by the spam/dust transactions of Ordinals.
I don't know if this still exist as a problem or challenge facing the bitcoin community any longer ever since it was addressed and talked about by many, transaction fee is no more a contention for us to make a bitcoin transaction, you have many alternatives to make you avoid any exorbitant hike on transaction fee, whereas ordinals are no more that affecting the network with high transaction fee, you can also customize your fee, or look at the mempool for when it's less congested before making your transactions with lower fee rate. Few months back though, it was a huge issues, the network congestion was due to the BRC20 and Ordinals and it really took bitcoin enthusiast by storm. But lately though, at least at this point is has slow down a bit. But there is occasional spikes in the network, and just like now, I see that the fastest is around 20 sat/vB which I think it's too expensive for us average Joe and all we can do is wait for the mempool to at least clear in the next hour and see how the fees will be. |

Tapales was lucky enough to rid of Murodjon Akhmadaliev because the latter's camp hasn't had the idea to bring up a rematch clause before they draw and signed the contract of their fight. That gives me some though that perhaps it wasn't an honest mistake made by the team because they were the champion, and it was big hole that they didn't fill and so I think that they might've underestimated Tapales hence why there wasn't a rematch clause.
Yes, most likely this is the case for the camp of Murodjon Akhmadaliev. They have been the champion and to be honest, we really haven't heard of Marlon Tapales before. It was all Nonito Donaire and Casimero and other Filipino at 118-122 lbs, and Marlon is just climbing up. But it was a total surprised when Marlon pull one of the biggest upset when he beat a tough Murodjon Akhmadaliev, outboxing him very clearly and the judge was right about the score. Now Murodjon Akhmadaliev camp is going to figure it out on how to become a champion again and probably not make the same mistakes. If Tapales beats Inoue it will go down in history as the biggest upset in boxing, bigger than Douglas upsetting Mike Tyson, This fight carries a lot of pressure for Tapales at this point of Inoue's career he is invincible and keeps getting better I believe he is not yet at the peak of his power and speed, and it's hard to stop Inoue's train from moving there is no fighter in the super bantamweight that can beat him and Inoue wants challenge so I'm sure after this fight he'll go for Featherweight where there a lot of great champions to challenge. I just hope Tapales offers good resistance I don't expect too much from Tapales but a good resistance and hopefully he can expose Inoue's weakness. I agree, as this point, we really don't know if someone can beat Inoue specially at this weight class. He has proven himself at 118 already. And so moving up in weight and then beating a great champion in Fulton with a knockout, that's really impressive of him. For Tapales, I als do agree with @bisdak40, he was a nobody, not even some Filipinos who follow boxing might have known his name. It was just when he beat Murodjon Akhmadaliev, a fighter that is in line with Inoue and some says that he has a chance to beat the Monster. But Tapales out pointed him in their fight that no one really saw it. |

Suddenly I'm seeing a lot of talk about the Suns trading Bradley Beal... I don't even know if that's an option or something they would want, but I'm hearing names like Donovan Mitchell and James Harden. I doubt the Suns would be willing to take on Harden as he's a huge risk and has already said he wants to be the number one option on whatever team he lands on, but Mitchell might be a legitimate option if they were trying to flip Beal. I'd personally rather have Beal as I think he fits in better with other stars, but Mitchell is an elite player when it comes time to show it.
A lot of all-star players on one team isn't always a good thing, and I think getting Harden would have been a bad idea for the Suns. He already played with KD in the Thunder and then in the Nets. Both times, they didn't have any success. As for Mitchell, we can conclude from last season's results that he feels pretty good about the Cavs. So, his trade to the Suns is unlikely. I don't think this would happen either. The rumors may not be true, especially considering that the Suns already appear to be a super team. Trading Beal for Harden might not be a wise move since Harden isn't known for his defensive abilities. The Suns already have a lot of offensive firepower with their big three being primarily offensive players. In my opinion, if they want to win a championship together, they should focus on improving their defense. Harden might be better suited going to a team that needs his offensive skills and can provide more balance to the league. For example, a struggling team like the Clippers could potentially benefit from his services. Hopefully, if a trade does happen, it benefits both parties involved. Clippers have superstars like Kawhi (although prone to injury), and Paul George, so not sure how he will be a perfect fit either. Same with the Suns, they have a lot of great players already, including Kevin Durant. And probably that's why initially we heard that Harden might go back to Houston Rockets as they don't have any legit superstars. But it seems that news has died down already and so we don't know what teams Harden will go or who will take him. |

^^ I think it's really hard to separate animal cruelty like cockfighting to other gambling. I mean there are countries that really like cockfighting and this become part of their culture and tradition. Yeah, it's cruel, but what can we do if it is being practice for thousands or even hundreds of years?
And as for the subject matter, I'm also not familiar with casino's offering this. So this is not possible to the OP, and I do not think that casinos are going to offer this cockfighting for many reasons. To be fair, I'm also from a country that grow up seeing cockfighting becoming a tradition and sports and used it to gamble.
You are right and I completely agree with you, there are indeed some cities where cockfighting is a major game and the citizens of such City loves betting on the game, but you will agree with me that this betting has remained on a local level, and to be sincere with you, I personally do not think there is any chance that we will ever have to bet on such games in an international level, because no international casino will ever want to list such games due to animal laws governing some jurisdictions or cities in several parts of the world.. So for cities where cockfighting is a thing for them, they can go ahead and enjoy the game, but for me personally though, I do not see or find any excitement in such games. Yes, I agree, it's local level only, although if I'm not mistaken, it's a world wide sports but then again, it's all about animals so for sure there will be a lot of issues with casino that want to cover this sports as there will be animal welfare and other groups that might raise an objective. So it's going to be a bad image for this casinos that's why they are not even thinking about it. But for the country that embrace it, no doubt it's part of their tradition and no one can ban it, not ever their government or any other animal rights for that matter. We just have to respect it as it is. |
