There's not much worthy updates in the world of proof of work altcoins lately.  If I have missed anything at all don't hesitate to post them and please include the link of the source.

I will remove Namecoin and add Zcash this weekend.  There's not much development going on with NMC while there's lot's of drama behind Zcash.  That should be entertaining to follow.  Grin

As a kid I used to be addicted to Starcraft/Broodwar.  If you haven't played it or haven't seen the game in action, I suggest for you to go see it!  It's by far the best RTS game out there.  And the fact that it was created way back in 1998 makes it more astonishing.

I made an info and prediction thread for the Afreeca Starleague, Starcraft/Broodwar Tournamenthttps://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1732205.0

Watching it being played at a high level is quite entertaining.  Please go see it.

Chelsea to win - 2.9
Real Madrid to win - 1.55

bet 0.05 to win 0.2

Not exactly a Premier League tip but this is my prediction for today. good luck.
Nice odds especially in Chelsea , but it's difficult to win in White Heart Lane ! in my opinion the best bet is to put over 2.5 in this game .
for Real madrid i'm with you to put real madrid to win

With Kante and Matic chosen to start, you'd expect a defensive approach from Conte. Not really sure about the over 2.5 goals.
now the score is 2-0 in 81' min , still one more goal !

Hazard needs to be on the ball more often, nothing creative happens for us otherwise


The defensive pressure Tottenham were giving Chelsea makes Hazard ineffective with the ball.  And even Kante for that matter.  Did you see the times Wanyama keep neutralizing him given the chance?  It's a master class performance by Pochettino, with the relentless pressure preventing Chelsea from playing their game despite their physical dynamism.  As someone mentioned, they did the same with Man City.

I'm looking for something with a good amount of players that is trusted. Nitrogen sports seems ok but the blinds are like 10/20 cents or 10/20 dollars and thats really annoying
there is top 3 bitcoin poker room , after fortunejack and nitrogensports there is betcoin.ag.

they have several problem in the past with forum member , but so far they always pay you out . you need to download their software which based on my experience it is good software to play , comfortable and a lot of high rolle there.

Traffic is very low in all those sites.  Ever since Micon, owner of Seals with Clubs got busted by the feds, Bitcoin poker has never been the same.  SWC was the best Bitcoin poker site a few years ago and if it weren't for that incident it would have continued to maybe at least get a decent level of regular traffic.

It's nice to have some small updates from the different projects around the space from time to time.  There was a point when I thought we were being overloaded with too much info, shoving them in our throats.  Now that there's not a lot, I kinda miss it.

Anyway what's up with Synereo?  There are some people in their Reddit that are saying that they feel that they were scammed.  It's probably the people who bought their ICO at .0003 BTC per AMP?  That was a poorly run ICO.  They were offering them at an ICO price of .0003 BTC a piece when Poloniex had it traded at a price lower than that.

REP/BTC:  Is it Poised for a Breakout?



We've seen this pattern before.  Sometimes it's a sign that it's nearing a breakout, so it might be a good idea to buy a few and maybe add more if it really does surge higher.  What really puzzles me is the whole market is moving differently than in the past.  Could we also be entering the much desired cryptocurrency bull rush?

11328  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: January 04, 2017, 09:11:30 PM
There's a lot of people in the thread who might lose money betting on Chelsea, or maybe not since it's hard to tell who's telling the truth.  Anyway this is a spectacular game even if there's only a couple (or less) shots on target.  The Spurs fans must be going crazy right now chanting and singing Delle Ali songs.

Time to place your bets gentlemen! Grin
Put Chelsea to win at highest odds of 8.2 for an ML win!

I like the bet if Chelsea is at home.  Never underestimate the influence of the home crowd during a match.  They really affect the way players perform in important games like this one.

Leicester have agreed the signing of Wilfred Ndidi from Genk. Ndidi has passed a medical and agreed a five-and-a-half-year contract.

It looks like Ranieri isn't giving up in looking for Kante's replacement.  Grin  But how does Ndidi play compared to Kante?  It's my first time hearing his name tbh.  Does he have a high ball recovery rate and a high success rate for tackles?
11330  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UFC 207: Rousey vs Nunes Prediction and Info Thread on: January 04, 2017, 08:34:43 AM
I think Rousey's problem is more mental than technical.  We can all blame her coach, her whole team or whoever.  But bottom line she shouldn't have taken this fight.  Nunes is expected to be a high level fighter, so Rousey should have had a tune up fight first before going for the championship.  It would be better for her mentally and her confidence.
11331  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: January 04, 2017, 08:26:09 AM

This guy have his scoring form again, one more spectacular goal from him, just few days after the unbelievable scorpion goal. Arsenal may have comeback from 3 goals, but don't let that distract the fact that Arsenal was awful, they could've won the game if they play like 2nd half. Little bit curious why Wenger always prefer Alex Iwobi other than many good players in the bench.
I also Arsenal fans, despite never lifting the champions League, but the game is fascinating and highly entertaining is the thing that exceeds anything than just the trophies. Talents that never existed the demise, a very enthusiastic audience was amazing and made me stay faithful with Arsenal. I always trust with Prof. Arsene Wenger.

Yup you can trust him to have an empty trophy cabinet for 20 years.  Just because they tied the game from behind doesn't change the fact that Arsenal under Wenger have no ambition at all.  Look where they are at the table.  They're in danger of getting off the top 4 by United and the Spurs.  Oh and the game was vs Bournemouth, a club who they shouldn't have conceded three goals in the first place.

Match Day 2 of the Afreeca Starleague is upon us.  Today's match is between Hero (ML odds - 1.392) and Best (ML odds - 2.884).  I have no deep knowledge of these players, but it seems Hero is the favorite.  And he plays Zerg, so yeah, he should have an easy time playing against a Protoss player in Best.


Edit:  Here's the link to the live stream which will start in a few minutes!  https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=D5o70IqEwG0

Update:  Best won 3 - 1.  Another underdog won easily.  There seems to be a serious inefficiency in the SC/BW betting market.

I know it's just a gameweek 2O, there is 18 games till the end of the season, but I think Liverpool have no chance to win the league this season. It's good to see Liverpool beat a big club, But sadly they are poor if played against a bottom club. Yesterday they draw against sunderland, Shows that they don't have a champions mentality. In fact Chelsea is superior this season. So hard to take them down.

Lol at your comment.  They don't have a champion's mentality?  What are you talking about?  They have shown more heart than most of the teams in the EPL this season.  This is what I said at the beginning of the season, Liverpool can't maintain their high intensity style for so long.  Sooner or later the fatigue will set in and it might even cause some players getting injured.  Remember the EPL has no winter break unlike Germany which I think has the longest winter break.

11334  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Soccer Transfer Market 2016/2017 ! on: January 03, 2017, 06:14:01 AM
I'd rather see the star players transfer to the MLS than see them go for big money transfer moves to China.  Promoting the sport in the US would have a better effect for football worldwide imho.  I'm not saying that it won't in China, it's just my first impression that if the MLS get their level of football up, it would generally be better.

Yeah I feel iffy accumulating a lot of ETC though, it just feels wrong for as long as BTC is staying the course with its current trend, that is.  A majority of what we should all be holding should be in BTC right now, with a little XMR and ETC imho.  The rest look like crap or something I wouldn't to hold even if they are looking to reverse in trend like REP.

needless to say i accumulate quite a bit in comparaison of my poloniex account, but those are not a lot compared to my whole crypto portfolio Smiley

Yeah the wiser choice is to hold Bitcoin right now.  There's also a case in arguing for holding XMR too, since it's rising in Bitcoin value.  With ETC, sure I'll bite but more of a nibble than a bite just to satisfy my urge to gamble.  Wink
11336  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: January 03, 2017, 04:59:21 AM
Manchester United won the match against West Ham United with the goals of Mata and Ibrahimovic and the youngster Marcus Rashford who came in as a substitute played really well and with this win Manchester United leveled on points with fifth-placed Tottenham and with this win Manchester United is undefeated in the past 13 matches.

Yup, Rashford was the game changer.  Just a few minutes in and he was basically the catalyst of the first United goal.  I wonder why Mourninho keeps starting Lingaard or Martial at the left, Rashford could play better in that role, especially when Ibra pulls back a bit, Rash could move to the middle and take the striker position in the attack.

And go see the Aguero goal in the City game.  It was so good.

Wow. Another round of fixtures again today.  Who says the EPL isn't a tough league?  I'm pretty sure this affects the English teams performance in the CL.  No wonder they have a hard time getting to the semis.  Not to mention the EPL is the toughest league in football.
11339  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UFC 207: Rousey vs Nunes Prediction and Info Thread on: January 02, 2017, 06:00:31 AM
Watch the post fight conference.  I think Dominick Cruz is still the boss even after his recent loss against Cody Garbradnt.  He took the loss well and I'm excited on what his next move will be.  But I hope TJ Dillashaw will get a title shot first though.  That will be an exciting bout as well. 
It was a really good fight and i really liked how Cody Garbradnt fought the ever elusive Dominick Cruz and in my opinion Dominick Cruz is the best counter strikers in the world and he used to win all the matches with his movement and counter striking but Cody took him out in this match with his own counter strikes and knocked him a couple of times but Dominick showed his class and made him fight the entire time. TJ Dillashaw will be getting the next title shot as they have an history which is to be settled and its a good story to sell  Grin.

I feel that what you say about Cruz isn't true anymore.  Garbrandt just showed that Cruz isn't really that good vs a fighter with good basic boxing.  Everyone hyped what Cruz was capable of doing and the media gave him an aura of indecipherability, when the solution to the 'puzzle' was to go back to the basics.  And of course the threat of a KO helped Garbrandt too.  There was nothing spectacular in the way he fights.  He had power, good head movement and used smart boxing.
