WTF, didn't even know the fight had been called off. Error Spence sure is injury prone, jesus.

We all know that Pacman will roll through Yordenis, he's not even a top contender.

If he's not fighting a top 10 guy, then he's obviously going to blow through his opponent. To be honest, the fans that bought tickets should get a full refund... They probably paid big bucks to see a fight that could have been legendary, and now they're left with this dud?

Spence needs to be more careful, it's getting annoying with how often he's injured now.
Injuries cant really be avoided but this one raises up questions about Spence current eye injury.
https://www.spin.ph/boxing/boxing-fans-puzzled-on-whether-its-spence-s-left-or-right-eye-that-is-injured-a793-20210813

Is it really true that he's trying to duck the said fight?


The instagram photo is clearly just a mirror image. You can tell by the scar tissue above his eyebrow which is supposed to be above the right side of his head. That means if the patch is on the opposite side then it is his left eye that is injured. You can also see the Adidas logo on his shoulder is reversed in the Instagram photo.

I've switched mainly between Wasabi Wallet and Electrum. Wasabi can be great for privacy but it is missing features that I use a lot like pay-to-many. If there was a wallet that combined the best features from each of these wallets then it would be the perfect choice.

When you speed up a transaction it is like double spending bitcoin. Your wallet will submit a new transaction with the same nonce as the previous transaction but with a higher gas price. It is only possible for one of these transactions to get confirmed. The unconfirmed transaction will be forgotten and eliminated from the mempool.

There is only one country where bitcoin is legal tender. The price will not cause them to revoke it's status. Maybe another administration will come in and repeal the law because they're not a fan of bitcoin, but they will use some excuse about it being used by criminals or something like that.
1305  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casimero vs Rigondeaux this August 14, 2021 on: August 15, 2021, 05:40:25 PM

i think people enjoyed their fight. i wouldn't be surprised if there will be another. a rematch will be fun. 
if they are making money out of this match and they like the sport, there is no stopping. Rigo i think enjoyed this one too. there is nothing for casimero to do as well but to fight whoever is there available if inoue and donaire won't fight him.

congrats to Casimero!

Literally not a single person enjoyed this fight. A rematch is not necessary because nobody wants to see Rigondeaux fight again. He will stink up the place again. Bantamweight is still a loaded division and there will be other interesting opponents for Casimero.
1306  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casimero vs Rigondeaux this August 14, 2021 on: August 15, 2021, 06:54:27 AM
This is not the kind of performance that increases Casimero's value as a fighter. He arguably should have lost the fight. I don't think Inoue will be next. Inoue will fight on New Year's Day in Japan and Donaire seems to be the preferred opponent. Casimero will have to look impressive in his next fight for him to be considered for Inoue.

That's not good. Anyone affected by this?

Poly Network Suffers Record-Breaking $600.3 Million Hack
Interoperability protocol Poly Network has suffered an exploit today. The attacker has made off with at least $600.3 million in stolen funds.

"We are sorry to announce that #PolyNetwork was attacked on @BinanceChain @ethereum and @0xPolygon," the developers also stated in Poly Network's Telegram channel. "We call on miners of affected blockchain and crypto exchanges to blacklist tokens coming from the above addresses."

According to the announcement, there are currently three known addresses that allegedly belong to attackers: Ethereum (which currently holds $264.8 million worth of crypto), Binance Smart Chain ($250.8 million), and Polygon ($85 million).

As such, this is the largest cryptocurrency hack so far. The previous record was held by exchange Coincheck which lost about $530 million to hackers in January 2018.

Sos: https://decrypt.co/78163/polynetwork-suffers-record-breaking-600-3m-hack

Poly Network is a dapp that works on multiple blockchains. This is not the Polygon Network that was hacked, just a service with a confusingly similar name.

There was no controversy this time around. Franco was the clear winner. He made the adjustments he needed to make and won the decision. This would've been a great fight to bet on the underdog. People were going off the impression of the second fight where Franco did not look so good because of the eye injury but when he was in good shape in the first fight it was very close.
1309  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum and BNB on: August 14, 2021, 08:41:01 AM

I believe Binance will create own native chain for Binance Smart Chain. What do you think of BNB when native Binance Smart Chain is available?

I did not have chance to buy Bitcoin at $300. I did have chance to buy Ethereum at $300 and did bought it but I did not hold it from $300 to $3000.  Undecided

The BEP2 chain is already BNB's native chain. I'm not sure if the Smart Chain is a pegged token or they migrated some of the supply to that chain but it is working fine and it is already independent from Ethereum. Making BSC compatible with Ethereum was a good move because a lot of developers either moved over to BSC or are making cross-chain products that can be accessed by BSC supporters.
1310  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: {Boxing} Manny Pacquiao vs Yordenis Ugas on: August 14, 2021, 12:42:07 AM
Hoping that Pacquiao will get his belt again. Because it was his belt and they just sent an email to Ugas to claim that belt. Really hilarious! Pacquiao got the belt from then-unbeaten Thurman and WBA just handed the belt to Ugas just like that. How can he fight during the height of pandemic? Wishing that Pacquiao will win via TKO at early rounds so he can shove it to WBA that he is the real owner of that belt.  Grin

The WBA have demonstrated that they are the most corrupt organization in boxing. They issue more belts than anyone else and they are under threat of losing their ability to sanction fights in the United States. It would be great if some high profile fighters refused to fight for their title until they have cleaned up their act.

So about the XFUN,do the holders of FUN token in Freebitco.in receive the same amount of XFUN token 1:1 or it is just an announcement so if we like we can convert to XFUN tokens if we need to and the price starts climbing since it is going to be on Polygon/Matic L2 Network?

Its a migration to a new blockchain, so you can't have both at once with your current holdings like a fork.

XFUN is like WBTC. You can lock up BTC to mint WBTC. With FUN they have locked up all the tokens held on FreeBitco.in to create XFUN on Polygon. XFUN gets burned to unlock the native token.
1312  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Largest DeFi Hack: $611 Million Stolen from Poly Network on: August 13, 2021, 03:18:20 AM
It would have been incredibly difficult to get away with stealing half a billion dollars. Ethereum and BSC are fully transparent blockchains and there is not enough liquidity in mixers like Tornado Cash to obfuscate such a large amount. If they hadn't been so greedy and only stole enough money to live off of for a couple of years then there would not have been such an effort to track them down. They have now returned most of the funds in order to try and avoid legal consequences.
1313  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Anderson Silva vs Tito Ortiz on September 11 on: August 13, 2021, 01:41:39 AM
This seems like an obvious money grab. Both guys are really old and shouldn't be fighting anymore. Silva showed he can still compete against low level washed up fighters like Chavez Jr. but against a real contender he would get hurt badly. Tito has never boxed professionally so I am not sure what to expect from him but he can't possible be that good. If the fight was on basic cable then I might tune in but since it is on PPV I have no intention of buying it.
1314  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: {Boxing} Manny Pacquiao vs Yordenis Ugas on: August 13, 2021, 12:50:26 AM
I would still consider Ugas to be in his prime despite being 35 years old. He did good against Shawn Porter but lost a controversial decision. He is still a paper champion though and that is why he is the underdog. If he wins this fight it would be one of the biggest upsets in recent history. I think the most likely outcome is a wide decision win by Pacquiao.
1315  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence Jr - August 21 on: August 12, 2021, 08:20:50 AM
It's a big surprise that Spence Jr. back out at the last minute, there are some speculations that they just made up the torn retina just to get away with Pacquiao, we all know that even Pacquaio is 40+ years old he still has the speed and agility and the team of Spence know that.

I don't really get the conspiracy theories. This would've been by far Spence's biggest paycheck and he was favored to win. Any top welterweight would kill to be in a position to fight the current version of Pacquiao. We have already seen Spence wearing an eyepatch from having surgery on Wednesday morning. It was reported that this injury was discovered by the Nevada commission. I don't think they would allow themselves to be used as cover for Spence if he was ducking.

Poly Network Hacker Repays Millions, Says ‘Ready to Return the Fund’
"The unknown Poly Network hacker has begun returning funds stolen from yesterday’s record-breaking exploit.

The attacker responsible for yesterday’s $600 million hack of decentralized finance (DeFi) interoperability protocol Poly Network sent nearly $5 million worth of crypto back to the project."


It was mentioned that the hacker's IP address and other information had been uncovered and maybe this is what scared them into returning those funds. Every centralized exchange will be monitoring their addresses and it would be difficult for them to cash out into fiat.

The hack probably destroys any confidence in Poly Network but at least investors have a chance to recover what they lost.
1317  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence Jr - August 21 on: August 11, 2021, 11:28:06 PM
Ok here's one way Pacquiao is motivated as per Roach,

He said that Pacquiao is pissed out, because the title that he won against Thurman was handed to Ugas without due process, so he was stripped with that belt. So he might go for a knock out against Ugas here to claim that belt back. But I don't know if this is true though, we all know that Roach is the one hyping Manny's fight so take it with a grain of salt.

Roach has been promising a knockout for like the past 10 fights. Ugas has never been knocked out and Pacquiao only has 1 knockout in the past decade. I don't think Pacquiao coming off a 2 year layoff at 42 years old will be capable of getting the KO in this fight even if it is a late replacement opponent.
1318  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why be allowed to create tokens with the same names? on: August 11, 2021, 07:25:31 AM
With cryptocurrency being decentralized it is impossible to prevent this from happening. Exchanges, block explorers and wallets could implement some safeguards but since they don't control your private keys it is ultimately up to each individual to check that they are interacting with the correct token contracts. When I add a custom token on Pancakeswap there is usually a disclaimer stating that it might be a fake token and you have to check a box to continue trading. If these measures aren't sufficient and you are still falling for scams then you probably should stay out of DeFi.
1319  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence Jr - August 21 on: August 10, 2021, 11:20:22 PM
There is a tweet of Spence that he canceled the fight. This isn't confirmed yet but there is a facebook viral post about this game being canceled already. But I guess he chicken out his biggest fight here. This is a very big fight of his life where he can make a lot of money. I have no idea about what happened but the coins I allocate for this fight will be used somewhere else which is good in a way.



A retinal tear is a very serious injury and he had no choice but to pull out of the fight.

Depending on what happens with Pacquiao's political career this could be the final fight of his career. Ugas is an underrated fighter but I don't think he has what it takes to beat Pacquiao so I see Manny regaining his title. It would be great for him to retire as champion. The silver lining of this situation is that we will probably get to see Spence vs. Crawford finally. Spence needs a legacy defining fight and if Pacquiao retires then Crawford is the only option for him.

Most likely the best prize so far but I'd take 5000 satoshi rather than 50 gold tickets. The chances to win the Lambo is pretty much close to 0 even with 50 tickets and Im not really a fan of lotteries

There will be plenty of opportunities to win 5k satoshis so I would love receiving some free golden tickets in the WOF. If I don't win the lambo then at least I didn't have to risk my BTC to earn those tickets.
