You could see the Suns give up half way through the second quarter. I think Ayton being out mentally messed them up before the game even started. This has been one of the harder games to watch in recent memory. The Suns were hard fouling and talking trash… I feel like they’re poor sports when things don’t go their way.
We've seen that many times. Trash talk, and hard fouls, mostly coming from Booker and Cam Payne. Much worst when Mikal Bridges was still there. It's actually difficult to watch the entire 2nd half of the game. When I saw the Nuggets making 81 points in the first half, I say the Suns are really not playing defense and it will be contagious until the next half of the game and so it did. IIRC, the lowest they got was 19 points deficit and it didn't go below that until Jokic came back and made it 30 again. There's no point in what KD is trying to achieve, he is the only one having the will to try and cut it but without help, there's just nothing he could do. Tomorrow, we have games that will be electrifying. Both the Knicks and Warriors trying to survive their series and I am hoping they win so we could see three sets of Game 7's.  That will be awesome to watch. And the thing is, those trash talking really back fired on them big time, just like last year when they trash talk Luka and the rest of the Mavs. And the result? Booker and the Suns got eliminated worst than what the Nuggets did them here, but the numbers of Jokic though this series is astonishing as no one can really stop him, averaging triple double. Ayton? not sure what the future of him with Phoenix. And with this lost, the saga of CP3 still continues and we don't know if he can still keep up with his injuries next season with Durant. |

I'm not surprised by this because this has happened in the past. Despite the increase in fees, bitcoin continues to thrive despite the difficulties at this time when transaction fees are high. What we still need is to believe in the efforts of bitcoin and push the bitcoin community more strongly. So just expect Bitcoin to work again and move forward optimizing the Bitcoin network, improving the user experience, and maintaining its position as the leading digital currency.
This high fees might be temporary though, we have seen already that the developers are already looking at it, and who knows, they might come up with a good plan, (not necessarily soft fork), to combat the whole spamming of the network. And bitcoin will continue to survived despite all of this attacks, although the price is going down this month due to this whole network congestion. We still have the bitcoin halving coming up next year that we all have been waiting for as the catalyst for a bull run. So adoption will definitely grow, this will not delay anything on the horizon. |

In deed we understand that things are now changing,technology is now eating so wild on the system of things in the world,and i wanna ask if it will not going to affect some countris currency,we have come to see the digital currencies how is growing and is expanding the coast of geting richer every day,do you think that one day this digital currencies will not dominate some country currency like ours,
Yet to be seen, for now we have CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency) or the like of digital Yuan and others. But we still don't know if they are going to take over or if even traditional currencies will one day be the reserved currency like the US dollar that we have right now. No worries though, if that is the case then we are already ahead of the game, we've seen in crypto for years now and before the population can caught up, we are in top of the food chain so to speak. |

Halvening is still 1 year away, until then it will most likely be the sideways market, judging by the past markets. Now is a good time to buy if you can 100% afford to wait 2+ years. The short term remains highly unpredictable as always, so it's highly risky to do any short-term trades, because Bitcoin can go up or down by a lot very easily and very quickly.
I agree, it's just better to just buy at this point, no need to speculate if we are going to be $30k this month of May or remain at $27k and be sideways. And doesn't make sense to sell as well for short term profit, of course no one can stop someone from selling and make some profit margin. But if you look at it, after halving a bull run will have to happen eventually. So it's better to just accumulate at this point, practice DCA and just be mentally tough not to sell and keep stacking sats till next year. |

A boxer's life is always on the line.
4 days ago, a young boxer Kenneth Egano from General Santos City, Philippines won a fight against Jason Facularin in Imus, Cavite Philippines. Upon winning, he didn't even have the energy to be on the referee's side to raise his hands or even heard the announcer that he won the fight because he was already in the corner collapsed, and being tended by his team.
He was rushed to the hospital and was in a coma for 4 days before he died today. 22 years old. So young and has so much future ahead of him.
Manny Pacquiao covered all the expenses for his recovery but there was nothing they could do to save him. Another sad day for Philippine boxing.
This is a reminder that we cannot just underestimate what the boxers are risking when they step on the ring.
Yes, I read about that event, and it's really sad to hear someone died inside the ring and at a very young age of 22 years. We didn't see the full potential of this boxer, but it's an accident that no one saw coming, this is not his first fight. But it's good that the legendary boxer, Manny Pacquiao who is the even organizer did everything he can here. And it's true, every time they step in the right, half of their feet is already 6th feet under and that's why there are boxers like Floyd who played defense and doesn't like to be hit or boxers asking big money because they know that it could be their last one. |

The Warriors won by 15 points. That was awesome, and now the series is 3-2. They will still be on the edge in every game, but they have a chance to win the series, especially if they win on the road, which is difficult.
Green and Wiggins made great contributions, but Thompson hasn't found his rhythm yet after having a great Game 2 performance.
The top performers for the Warriors were:
Curry: 27 points
Wiggins: 25 points
Green: 20 points
Yes, and it might be scary because we might see Game 6 Klay at Crypto.com? And I think it's the contribution of Green who really covered what the Warriors is missing on Thompson right now. Although there are reports that AD might not play in Game 6 because of concussions, but I think he will though, he just need to take a rest. Now the Warriors won on a must win at home, can they do a must win in the road or as the predictions of 6 games for the Lakers will happen next game? Lakers now, opening at -1.5 at home as favorite. |

On the contrary, it was Moloney who says that Vincent and his team thought that he is an easier fight for Astrolabio, as compare to Emmanuel Rodriguez and that's why they go that route.
Rodriguez beat Moloney before, and this according to Jason could be the reason why Vincent Astrolabio and his camp chooses him instead of Rodriguez. But in any case, Moloney is the slight favorite so it's not a easier fight for Vincent here. This fight is going to happen this weekend, so another good one store for us and we will see a new champion after this fight.

Have you observed the significant number of project launches featuring the name "PEPE"? If you check the recently added list on CoinMarketCap, you'll notice that approximately 90% of the project names include "pepe." Lately, meme coins have been experiencing a remarkable surge in market capitalization. What are your thoughts on meme coins and the prevailing trend of pepe-related projects? Personally, I wasn't initially a fan of meme coins, but it appears that they have gained considerable hype. I'm curious to know your opinion on meme coins as well. Have you invested in any of them?
No, I just invested on solid altcoins, like ETH, BNB, ADA and a couple. I'm not into this whole meme coins or those who are purely for hype, pump and dump. I have nothing against those who like to play with their money on this kind of projects. But not me, I prefer stable and solid investment of money. I might not be risking here, but it's too much for me to hunt this meme coins and then join the bandwagon for the money. And for those who are into "pepe" right now and making money, then good for you. But hopefully you also know that you are taking a big risk as I have read that a lot of investors are losing money specially if you have invested on top. |

Although I'm not very familiar with these boxers, I believe that they have almost equal skills based on the betting odds. The name Moloney rings a bell for me because he was supposed to fight Donaire, but he backed out and chose another opponent instead.
I think Moloney is afraid of Donaire. He was probably looking for an easier way to become a champion, and maybe he thinks that Astrolabio is not as good as Donaire. I'm also interested in watching this fight, which will be in less than a week. Hopefully, someone here will share a free live streaming link. After losing to Inoue I don't think he is ready to face Donaire who although also lose his match against Inoue is still dangerous, so he goes the easy way by fighting the unpopular but dangerous Astrolabio who can perform better than Donaire because he is coming from winning streak, I'd like to see their face off and weigh in, which is going to happen next week. There's a big possibility that the 118 lbs will have two champions because this is a known territory of the Filipinos after Inoue conquer all the titles. Asian in general, because this is where they really excel and compare to bigger weights wherein it was American and Mexicans. So in any case, it's good for Filipinos though, we have Astrolabio, and then Donaire and Gaballo if I'm not mistaken, campaigning in this division and has a chance as well for the belt in one of those divisions. Moloney shouldn't underestimate Astrolabio here, his records might not be good, but I think Vincent has learn from his early defeats that why he is not on the brink on winning a belt. It's not how you start, it's how you going to finished your career and for me Vincent is just about to his his peak. |

Home team still perfect in the Suns/Nuggets series. Phoenix just looked like shit tonight. Made a nice run to only be down by 3 at halftime. Really want to see the Suns win it all, but Denver has the home court advantage and apparently that's been huge for the series.
And it's only Booker and Durant who is carrying the team right now, Ayton for me is a non-factor in this series. Something is off with DA here, not sure what is that but perhaps he is too intimidated facing Jokic. While the Nuggets have a secret weapon in this game, which is Bruce Brown who scored 25 points. And Jokic, having a triple double, so it's 3-2 now and the Suns on the brink of elimination. |

BTCI have the ability and understanding of the cryptocurrency ecosystem to create a platform like TORNADO CASH but with bitcoin, i know that this is not very well received by users since people are not very open to using crypto projects, and if something that has to do with crypto does not generate gigantic money profits, they do not care.
The only one that doesn't received mixer is obviously the 3 letter agencies in the US. As it is being picture as mixer being used by criminals, i.e. terrorists, gun smugglers, narcos and drug organization etc. What drives the use of cryptocurrencies are the cool projects that can be done with them and that is why i am proposing to the table to create this open source platform so that the BTC community can use it if it is willing.
It offers a service that mixes potentially identifiable or "tainted" cryptocurrency funds with others, so as to obscure the trail back to the fund's original source anonymize where the BTC comes from since bitcoin is not completely anonymous but pseudonymous.
If you have proposals on how the creation of the platform should be for greater security or greater trust, I would love to read them to be able to satisfy your demands.BTC
We already have a a lot that right now, as you can see when Chipmixer was taken down, a lot of crypto mixers have appeared and try to vie for the coveted market. So I'm not sure if you will hear proposals here, the infrastructure is already set up for us, we just have to use the mixers and then see how it goes. |

The screenshot shows that you played live games according to a dishonest scheme, using a second account in another casino. If this is true, you have no chance of getting your money back. I read about such a scheme 3 years ago. Evolution exposes this easily.
It's too bad you lost
they are scammers if they can provide proof then i won't say more but i guarantee i have not violated Usually though, casinos are not going to provide that proof, on the way they find scammers because they won't want it to be exposed in public because there are risk that criminals and scammers might find a way to exploit their system if they found out how they are doing it. The only thing that they will show proof is through a 3rd party arbitration. So it's up to you whether to open up accusations against them. |

I stopped my crypto journey way back last year because of so many losses and got busy with my school works, it was last year in February when I lost a huge amount of my money investing in altcoin and got rugged, I was depressed that time and sad because I lost a huge amount of money which makes me stop my crypto journey and just focus on my study.
Two weeks ago I saw my friend on Facebook posting such luxury and cars he already has and I know that person is into cryptocurrency so I know that he got all those things because of cryptocurrency that inspires me now to continue my crypto journey and I will start it with this forum as I know I can have a lot of lessons and advice here.
I just realized how risky cryptocurrency is, especially for those people who have not yet have good knowledge about it, I've learned from my mistakes last year and j am now here exploring again and will be careful this time.
I do hope that you have learn your lessons very well the first time. We might have different path, but the end result should be the same. Earn and make profits through our journey in crypto currency. And I guess it's good for you to stop your initial crypto journey because it didn't end well and you focus on your studies. Yes, crypto investment/trading is very risky, if you don't have the experience, you will definitely lose big money here. And as I have said, it's a expensive lessons to learn and so with that already under your belt, it might be a different result this time. So good luck in your journey. |

I wonder how much more should we wait to stop this attack? The fees are ridiculous, 100sat/vbyte is a reality already now (if you want reasonable transaction times). I'm waiting for the core devs to respond to this hostile action against Bitcoin. Taproot bug must be fixed.
I think we should only wait for the hype to die down. Degen peoples are increasing the trading of those so called ordinals. Its true this will affect regular business or merchants that use of bitcoin for transaction. But does this action by the creatoe who established this new tech of ordinals is illegal? I mean does core devs can somehow fix this? Since the creator choose to use a decentralized platform for this idea. As far as I know there's nothing illegal here, the creator of BRC-20 token was able to find a loophole in Bitcoin’s 2021 Taproot upgrade and then that's it. It's the start of this 'inscription'. But this is an attack to bitcoin's fungibility and I don't think that the community is divided, majority doesn't support BRC-20. In any case, this is hype and we all know how fast this kind of fad is going to die down. |

I think the team should trade Jordan Poole since he hasn't been as useful as he was during the last playoffs. I'm not sure what happened to him, but since receiving a huge contract, his stats have dropped significantly.
If the Warriors fall to the Lakers, there will be no more opportunity for Jordan Poole to prove himself. He has been inconsistent, especially in the postseason, and it's unlikely that the team will still consider him as a player to grow with. I'm not sure if the Warriors made a mistake by giving him a max contract instead of Draymond, but I think they may be regretting that decision now. Well the Warriors has a bad start, even before the start of the season, Poole and Green was in a altercation. And now coming into the playoffs, we here him and Kuminga not happy with the playing time they got from Steve Kerr. So not sure if the Warriors are going to kept him last you said, he just sign him a good contract but so far his numbers are not up to par like last year. And probably this is the final straw for the Warriors. I believed they can still win the next game, but it will be over in 6 and Lakers moving on the next round. I think they should sit Poole for the remainder of the postseason. He has been a liability to the team already, and it might hurt his ego, but the coaching staff has to find a way to win. The lineup in game 4 was good; it's just that the Lakers had a strong 4th quarter, which is why they won. Overall, the Warriors have a good chance of winning the next game at home and extending the series. It's just too bad to see Jordan Poole performed way below the level that the team is expecting him, I guess it's his ego that really take over himself. I agree that the Warriors coaching staff might have been losing faith in him and it's time for Kerr to sit up if needed. That is a winnable game for the Warriors and they let this one go away. It's crucial as the series might be tied and they will have the home court as game 5 will be at Chase Center. Now it's a must win for them. |

As for the Haney vs Loma fight, the odds hasn't move a bit, Loma is still a 3:1 underdog.
As expected, Loma is still the big underdog here. Everyone is likely rooting for Haney to get an easy win because he is the younger and stronger fighter, so there should be no problem winning. However, I love surprises, so I want Loma to shock Haney and prove to him that he hasn't fought a technically skilled fighter as good as him. Is 'shock' really the appropriate term? LOL. I think that word is used when one is not expected to win, and although Loma is quite the underdog here, he is capable of winning. Perhaps he will surprise the doubters, but the believers won't be shocked because they trust Loma to bring his A-game in the biggest fight of his career this year. Perhaps it could be the right term, I mean beating a 3:1 underdog and then winning it, should be shocking right? the thing is that Loma is a live underdog that's why we thought that the odd is not that fair. Similar to Ryan Garcia who is also the same underdog odds with Tank, if he wins the fight will it be shocking? Of course yes, as bettors and handicappers thinks that he has a small chance of winning. So we will see how this game will play out, will it be the underdog Loma here and then he become the undisputed or Haney continue on his winning streak and cementing his legacy. Can't blame them if they listed Loma as slight 3:1 underdog because his past form wasn't seen in his recent fight against Jamaine Ortiz, I mean he was still flexible and hard to predict even after his lost against Teo where he fought two boxers, Nakatani and Commey, respectively but that was before his inactivity because of the Russian-Ukraine war where he had to sacrifice his career to help the troops defend Ukraine. I sure do hope that we will still see the old Loma, so that he can give Haney a good fight and might dethrone him from being the undisputed champion in this division. But if not, I'm confident to say that it will be like a walk in the park Devin Haney. Boxers are quite complimentary of themselves, but I can't deny that in this case they are underestimating Loma a lot, I don't have to Deny that Haney is one of the best I've Seen in action, but I also can't deny that Loma has a classic style , like from the old school and it is the same one that everyone wants to have in a fight, for me this is Something that will always be the best,but it is good that I know this type of fight, the good thing is that the bets will Always have an impact what we think about what we get right, that's why this is still relevant. Because Haney thought that he will have all the advantage, actually the bookies believed that, that's why he is the favorite in this fight. One thing though is that Haney doesn't have power behind his punches and Loma knows this and he should be walking him and try to be the aggressor in the early rounds to test what Haney is made of. If not then since we said that they have boxing IQ, maybe they will have another plan to counter the other. So yeah, this is a great fight to watch specially for fans on how to play defense as it will be the key here in this fight. |

This should be in Speculation board.
In any case, we have seen the worst already, so whether we will see another downtrend or going down to the next support of $25k, it's up to us whether to take advantage of the situation by accumulating more or just push the sell button.
Yeah, we all know that the network has been congested due to ordinal inscriptions and BRC-20 Tokens. But I don't think it will be enough to cause massive panic amongst investors. Sooner or later this will settle down and maybe we can see the fees going back to normal.

^^ Yeah, he shouldn't have any problems making 122 lbs, it could really be his walking weight after all. Although boxers tend to gain more lbs during their off season, but at least Casimero doesn't need to shred more pounds unlike in 118 lbs wherein he really struggle in the last couple of years to make the weight and even lose the belt in the scale.
And in the Akaho fight, he make the weight without any issues so he will be fine now. It's just how he is going to be in this fight as everyone is expecting that he will score a knockout victory here.

Bitcoin goes down today , But going up tomorrow so what alarms you now mate? and besides are you really investing on this ?or just fudding around?
you are creating thread that cannot be supported nor even you so why would people here needs to believe in what you are speculating ?
common man, be a good person here and not just telling lies that you don't even understand.
It seems that the price is difficult to go up when it passes $ 30k, many people sell because they think that the market will red again, I think the most important thing that makes the price crash is FUDs on social media, according to social media experts FUDs that are spread are structured because they are funded by haters who don't like bitcoins. That's what we call resistance level, so for now it's $30k and usually it happen during those round numbers. And as we can see it's trending sideways, the positive thing is that it's around $29ki'ish level so that is a good sign in my opinion. Just the start of the week for May though, anything can happen, including a break out run that will put the price to $30k and up. Or another sideways or worst is that we will have another correction to $25k. So we still need to be very careful, adjust our plans based on the movement of the price. |

I feel like we’re going to see Philadelphia continue to struggle against the Sixers. We’ve got about an hour until tip-off but I’m expecting to see a Boston victory. The second game between the Nuggets and the Suns will be interesting, as it is a must win game for Phoenix. With their season on the line tonight (3-0 would be a death knell) I think we might see them come out victorious, but I think they’re going to lose this series.
You got it mate, Philly specially Harden did struggle in this game, while the Celtics was hot early on three's and they keep the momentum throughout the game even though Sixers manage to cut the lead in the last 5 minutes of the game. So Harden just decided to be the passer, and then Celtics double and triple team Joel Embiid every time he got the ball. They even play small most of the game, and sometimes it will be Tatum or Jaylen Brown guarding Joel. But in the other end, if they are on the defense, those two are just going one on one against Embiid and taking advantage of their quickness to score against the big man. |
