It is all down to interests. There is usually no purpose for a user to want to join a discussion of a local group who are living a different reality from his and speaking the same language. If you happen to be living in the country and cannot yet speak the language you have some interest in the discussions and can technically be allowed to communicate there, it'll also be a tool to learn the language quicker.

But someone who has no interest in that region, wasn't mentioned or quoted in a conversation and cannot speak the language should not join discussions there.

A good tool in the wrong hand will be useless.
The officiating in the EPL is just poor all round with or without VAR. Simple decisions made during the games which the technology does not get involved in gets called wrongly way too often. Referees officiate based on their moods and not the rules, they can decide to not be in the mood to give yellow cards and start overlooking clear bookable offences till the game spirals out of their control.

I can't say if it's the training or the management and supervision, but something needs to be fixed.

From your post history you are having problems withdrawing your funds from at least 3 different casinos bit you somehow want to help someone else to recover theirs from Bc game.

Do not contact this user or anyone over telegram if you are having problem with a platform, keep all communications public and avoid them if you can.

Really unfortunate the injury to Frankie De Jong just before half time. He has struggled with injuries a lot having just returned from an ankle injury this month and finding a bit of form. He looked to twist his ankle again and was completely distraught as he was stretchered off the pitch. Great sportsmanship from the Madrid fans.

Besides that incident it has been a great game, Barcelona look better in possession and threatening in corners, Madrid look sharp on the break but may be suffering some fatigue from Wednesday match with City.

Scammers go out of their way to find places they can easily find victims and make money. There are occasional ones who find themselves in a situation that presents an opportunity and take it, without having the intention to scam when they joined. But they mostly seek out were they will hit less resistance, a quickly rising asset with the impression that it is making people wealthy quickly is a great environment.

Someone else could say 'those who were scammed were mostly greedy', but that is not a blanket that fits everyone.

Sure there is a talked about group of death, not so an easy group. And it is a straw man's argument to try to use that to cheapen a club's run in the competition. The club does not decide the draws, we experience it.
You have seen Liverpool and City talk a lot, there just seems to be an agenda with trying to dictate how we celebrate our success, we go top and have fun with an Elephant, that is not even trolling. Ødegaard takes a picture of a long time fan and mascot, pundits get a meltdown.

Pep was speaking for all managers during his post match interview. Arsenal also played on Wednesday, yesterday and again on Tuesday. Villa, WestHam and Liverpool played on Thursday, Villa went the 120 minutes and penalties, but they all play today and Liverpool go again on Wednesday.
I understand that they could not push City's match to Sunday cause Chelsea play on Tuesday, but the fixture line up for the clubs are crazy and it will get crazier with the new UCL format and New Club World cup format (for those participating). Removing replays from F.A Cup helps but the top clubs rarely feature in play-offs.

And does not need it. This HYIP feeds of hype, like a hit and grab. They make it look all very attractive to investors, easy money, real use case of bitcoin or any other bs they are selling. People catch on after a while and they lose the market.

Bitcoin has survived this far and thrived this much without ads. The real ones find their way around.

That website was launched in 2018 just after bitcoin hit $20k in December 2017 and ICO projects were springing up from all corners and would have been using the forum as a platform to advertise themselves. It is not a surprise that the activity then is way higher than it is now, we have not had that type of hype since then.

The admin has never tried to affect the ranking on search engines, all the activity here is organic.

Your link appears to be broken from my end, here is an alternate link to that txid^[1]. It shows it includes OP_RETURN and it is also a CPFP transaction. To be fair there are crazier transactions which have been sent in the last 80 blocks since the halving.

Being a source is voluntary work, meaning there is no actual contract between them and theymos, but some are designated to boards (which they applied to) to improve the flow of merit there, we have merit sources for local boards. It is not a rigid arrangement and the user can merit outside the local board too but have an obligation to merit in that board.
It goes without saying that users only apply to be a source for a board they frequent.

You are missing my point. If theymos asks for application from users who visit the gambling board or altcoin section and want to be sources, he is not forcing users to read the entire forum, just were they spend most of their time and help increase the flow of merit there.

- Jay -

This will be the best solution. It is easy to say there are only low quality posts in a particular section and not visit that part of the forum at all contributing to the low quality there. Merit sources do not visit those boards and are not obligated to if they are not designated to that board. Some have those boards on ignore so any quality post there will not get noticed and there is no incentive for users to put in any effort to contribute constructively.

Or I am the hopeful one and those boards are lost causes.

If history is anything to go by there will be no effect on the price for some time. The real impact of the drop in supply injection into the market should be felt early next year to late 2025. I am expecting a price of $125,000+

It is just a halving, it does not change anything on the network.

Halving did not lead to this, the developers just choose block number 840000 as their launch time. It has no relationship with the halving.

The mining sector is centralized now with almost all the hashpower in the hands of a few big pools. There are very few miners or solo miners due to the level of competition in the industry. It is what the whale miners do that is of consequence to the entire industry and it should be more of the same they have been doing already - try to consolidate more hashrate and get more blocks/profits. It is a company and they function as such with sectors allocated for keeping the miners running and adjusting to changes in the coinbase reward.

For those who started very early on, they lacked a rule book to guide them on what the do's and don'ts are. It was like starting on a fresh slate and learning as you go along with nothing but expectations from this asset you have recognized with potential.

Even simple exchanges which people can do now within seconds used to take whole lot more than that.

---

It sucks to make mistakes that looks to cost us more as the asset continues to rise but for the user to only be scrutinizing a 100BTC transaction now after 10+ years, I will say they still made a lot out of it.

- Jay -

It depends on why you are trying to blur the trace. If you are a regular person and want regular people not to be able to trace your funds, for example, if you do not want forum members to trace your funds, you can use an exchange to do that and trade amounts that do not require KYC.

Regular people cannot request an exchange to give up any information they have on you, that is only what government agencies can do.

A real football fan knows there is nothing like the easiest or hardest group. You have to step into the pitch and actually step into the pitch and fight it out for 90 minutes. Look at how you are doing in the league against teams that will be considered an "walk over" group.
Hashtags? Every club banters, many do it for engagement on X. No actual football fan actually hinges on that either.

A range is not an average age, stop trying to drop the numbers as low as possible.

I hope you do, it is your best shot at getting into any European comp for next season.

It does not look like an exchange address based on the transaction flow on it, and the funds were spent the very same day it was received. Could be a scammer but there is no way to be sure with the limited information available, only you can know the purpose for sending that amount of bitcoin, all we can see is transaction flow on the chain.

I tried to run the address for any high profile scams, but did not return any results.

Bitmax is an exchange which had a bad reputation. I do not know if they are still functional.

- Jay -

If it is an exchange wallet as you said you do not have a seedphrase that the friend can steal. You probably copied the wrong wallet address among the options and needed to make an internal transfer to your funding wallet. All the friend would have been able to do is to take you email address and try to guess your password and gain access to your account or to send you a phishing link were you will enter your log in details.

Always stay vigilant.

- Jay -

There is a reason CEX are effective mixers, it is not a public ledger like the bitcoin on chain network is. You can see when a UTXO goes in or comes out, but you cannot track what happens on the exchange and who is sending what in or withdrawing what out. If someone withdrew a sum of money from bitcoin to fiat and bought at a later time, you cannot know what he did with the fiat from when he withdrew.

I am curious to know what a "good address" is in your opinion.

- Jay -

This is not new, scammers have for a very long time been using this as a means to get unsuspecting users to slip up and grant them access. This is why you should always stay calm in any situation. Panic is the top tool that scammers rely on. Do not also allow easy access to your contact details, if they do not have those details, scammers have no way of sending you phishing links.
