The Dallas Mavericks switched gears in the 3rd quarter and started spanking the 76ers. Kyrie and Luka have more than 60 points combined and there’s still time to go in the 3rd quarter. Luka has started bombing long distance threes as a heat check. This is the best showing of what Kyrie and Luka could be capable of doing together yet.

Yeah, they won already, I thought it's going to be closer than the score that's why I have the Sixers on the + side live betting.

How about the Warriors as well switching gear in the 3rd quarter, outscoring the Clippers 42-16 and then somewhat let go of the pedal but still a decent win in the 4th, 28-19. And so the Clippers is still win less when the acquire Westbrook.

I'm taking the Hornets live betting at 18.5 at 1.95 odds. Phoenix and specially Durant is making a killing out of this helpless Hornets.

But maybe there could be garbage time leader and hopefully they can manage and squeeze in some points to make the score close and not let their fans disappointed with a blow up lost again.

Nice bet there mate, It was close in the end but Phoenix were already comfortable, and Durant still put up some show despite just returning after a long time being out, although it still doesn't suggest that Phoenix Suns would have it any easy down the stretch or during the post season, this Charlotte Hornets team are barely a team that's worth considering the decent test for the Suns.

Thanks mate, and that's what happen here, garbage time for the Hornets, although they really try to make it very close throughout the game, but too much Devin Booker.

Sixers +1.5 against the Dallas live betting. The game is pretty much close at this point and it can go either way. But I'm looking at Sixers to even steal one at Mavs homecourt.
1403  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you still hunt for airdrops? on: March 02, 2023, 02:01:58 AM
Airdrop hunting is no longer lucrative and I'll consider it as a waste of time and effort. Secondly, there's a risk of loosing your information to the wrong person's as those information could serve as a tool for hacking or luring you to be hacked. I'll prefer to stay away from airdrops as they no longer worth the time, effort, and risk.
Season of earning massive profits via airdrop is gone and I don't think such an opportunity would unveil itself again, then most of the new projects distribute their tokens reaned via airdrops apart from tokens earned from bounty hunting once those  tokens got listed in exchange definitely there are reasonable and valuable rewards for the holders, but now 99% of airdrops is worthless and waste of time as matter of fact some developers require some ETH in exchange for airdrop token, personally I had diverted my attention to other ventures.

Right, late 2017 if I remember it correctly and then first quarter of 2018, but after that airdrops are that worth anymore. Projects decided to just gave small amounts as compare to before and then there are a lot of bounty cheaters that force project to be really on the look out for this kind of indivuals.

And then there are projects that blatantly scams too, saying that they will give this amount of bounties and then chance it in the last minute.

Also projects that ask for private keys or some form of money just to give their airdrops, Lol, that is scam by itself.

Yes, this is the one of the oldest trick in the book. Funny thing is that even if I don't own a Trezor right now, but for sure even those who don't know are getting this kind of text message so it's an obvious scam.

And as per Trezor itself:

-We will never contact you via calls or SMS.

When it comes to greed, what I know is that humans are never enough. They'll place regret in any situation.

This is the truth, our greed never bottoms, when there is nothing, we think 0.1 BTC is huge, but when it is achieved, it is not enough, and wants to get a larger number. I also dreamed of 0.1 BTC, but when I got it, I wanted 1 BTC, and I still haven't stopped my goal. Depending on each person's economic situation, we can set different goals, no need to follow others. 0.1 btc is sometimes nothing to the rich, but it is already a huge asset to the poor.

Yes, and you can achieved that 0.1 BTC maybe in 6 months or less if you dedicated yourself to invest small amounts every week.

And then when you reaches that goal, then start all over again, the halving is like more than a year from today, a lot of times to purchase at the current price, still very cheap in my opinion. And then we continue to save again and again, and this cycle should continue so that like the rest of us, we want to be financially stable and have that freedom and make our life easier because of our bitcoin investment.
1407  Economy / Economics / Re: Untouchable Savings: Do you have it? on: March 01, 2023, 08:36:17 AM
If insurance can be classified on untouchable savings, then yeah I have that, health insurance to be more precise. That can't be spent on other emergency needs right?

One should not place too much worry on anything far away, limit it to today and the next few days. The economy will always be a matter of life at every level, people have their own problems, and in fact they'll find solutions slowly when adapting to them. That doesn't mean you don't have a financial plan either.

Yeah, I don't think that count as a untouchable savings as for me it's some money, a buffer that you have in your wallet that you can tap immediately if there is some emergency in your end.

And this bucket should be at least 6 months or so, and that in cases of some extremes happen in your life, you can still sustain it without having to go through a lot of and you still have some money to bring food in the table for your family.

And who knows, maybe this is the start of Floyd's career in exhibitions fight coming to an end.
His exhibition career was already end when he done fight with Logan Paul, after that he have next 4 exhibitions fights with Don Moore, Mikuru Asakura, Deji Olatunji, and Aaron Chalmers. But I don't see any hype, his appearance doesn't enough to bring the crowd. Maybe if he fight with McGregor or Jake Paul, it would be different. But McGregor want to comeback in UFC, while Jake Paul only want to fight in a professional career, Mayweather will not want since he is really care with his undefeated record.

But definitely, Floyd is still bringing money when he had his exhibitions fights, just a fight in Japan this December again could yield him easy cool $10 M or higher.

However, he is aged already, lots of money and doesn't need to fight even for exhibition fight to remain relevant in boxing. He can just simply find talents like what he did against Gervonta Davis and guide them on how to become boxing's cash cow.
1409  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: March 01, 2023, 01:47:23 AM
Any surprise by the Lakers taking the halftime lead?

Or anyone here willing to make a bet for them at ML currently at 2.60?

And also the Nets taking a 10 point lead against Giannis lead Bucks and the winning streak is on the line tonight against a new Brooklyn team.
1410  Economy / Speculation / Re: Expectations for March?! on: February 28, 2023, 12:37:55 PM
In March, I think Bitcoin can increase to $ 25K or even more but the price can also go back down to under $ 23K. The market trend at the end of February shows a downward movement after the price of Bitcoin is unable to increase again and like there is something that inhibits Bitcoin from increasing and being at $ 24K.

Yes, this is our goal: $25k or more this March. We had the opportunities to see this price, but speculators are selling. Now we are still under $24k and the resistance is $25k

But it will all change and Bitcoin will have more opportunities to increase. Meanwhile, I am still waiting, seeing where the market will move, and trying to buy Bitcoin.

We will wait for a positive news though. The market is not moving at all, $22k-23k range, and that's why if we wanted to see $25k, there should be like good news from US or something that will turn the market again to be very bullish.
1411  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: February 28, 2023, 12:14:58 PM

They really change a lot when their rooster changed, it seems their trades are pretty much effective because they overhaul their rooster and get a good supporting cast to help them on their important run to reach their target. Its good to see them to reach on playoffs since this current rooster is now what we can say a title contender compare before.

Now the curse is on the Clippers because they have Westbrook. Two consecutive losses in overtime - that hurts. I guess the most important thing is the plays in the dying minutes; it looks like they are struggling in those moments. They should improve in that area, otherwise their ranking will slide down.

I don't call Westbrook as a curse he still give solid contribution to Clippers. Maybe they are just finding ways to create good chemistry and if Westbrook got his confidence back which has been broken on Lakers provably we can see him back on his old form. They really need to find ways to win on crunch time because they always get upset there, also for Westbrook he needs to be more careful on turnovers and taking unnecessary fouls so that he can help the team on 4th quarter or even on overtime.

Lol, we don't believed such curse though, perhaps it just a coincidence that they lost again. But as you have said, the did contribute to the Clippers just unfortunately that they just fall short. On critics will find a way to blame Westbrook for their lost.

Lakers though, was surprised that they make a good comeback. For he they beat a good them in Mavericks with Luka and Irving both playing, and they beat them at their home court no less.
1412  Economy / Gambling / Re: NAKAMOTO ROULETTE launched today on: February 25, 2023, 09:16:39 AM
I did try your free roulette, live bikini dealer, Lol, I have won some, but still though it's free money so no money for me.

But I just wanted to see the speed and it seems to be decent, just minor lags but still manageable and I was able to see where the ball landed. Wish you that there is a button that I can push to double my bet. I mean an immediately button to where I can increased the bet quickly and not to go one by one to bet again, just saying.
1413  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Question about token holders for a specific projet on: February 25, 2023, 07:45:01 AM
Yeah, it's a big red flag already as others have said.

Doesn't make sense that the project will huge such huge amount on only 1 wallet, because it's either

1. they can manipulate the price
2. they can dump the tokens and make profits instantly.

So for me, it's better to stay away from this kind of project.
1414  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin is getting ready for $25K, How? on: February 25, 2023, 06:50:53 AM
Unfortunately, there's no $25k for us this month, or at least a sustainable run at that price. There's negative news about the US inflation and Feds might increase the rate for the next couple of months.

And with that, it had adverse effect to us and other financials like stocks as they also goes down in the last couple of days.

So we might as well wait for next month and hopefully everything will settle down a bit and we can target $25k again.
1415  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: February 25, 2023, 06:30:43 AM
Anyone still watching the Clippers vs Sacramento?

Double OT, Clippers leading in the 4th quarter but then Sacramento came back and force OT the first time.

Lucky for those who beat on the over, as the game was 176-175 score, huge scores.

Spoiled Westbrook playing with the Clippers.
1416  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I have bitcoin, what do you guys recommend I buy as well on: February 24, 2023, 08:27:16 AM
I have a good amount of btc that I'm very pleased with. I love btc. Are there any other coins you guys could recommend I buy next? (none of your comments count as financial advice)

I have ETH, BNB and ADA on my list.

Other's might recommend low cap coins as a good buy, but for me, those are solid projects to begin with, they might not give a huge returns as compare to others, but still the risk is not that big and but on their past performance, they will be one of those solid project that will make a new all time high when we hit the bull run next year in my opinion.
1417  Economy / Speculation / Re: why Bitcoin Dumping ? on: February 24, 2023, 08:12:48 AM
It's not dump maybe we could call it market correction looking from the last ATH is still on buying position. Presently now is at +23k so I don't think we may see 17k this month again maybe from next month but which I can't say with any assurance concerning the price. It's very hard to detect what may come of next in the entire cryptocurrency market.

Calm down, bitcoin is not doing anything strange or unexpected.

A large part of every bitcoin move is stock traders rushing in by looking at the FED predictions, CPI and all other global factors. They bought some because the FED was looking to slow down their rate hikes and now Biden came  to Ukraine and promised help and Putin threatened with their continuation of nuclear tests, so the war is going to continue, nobody is looking to stop. That's bad for the markets because war means inflation. US stocks were falling for the last 2 days and bitcoin is reacting to this.

Yes and even with those threats and the war is still behind us, the market didn't do something worst, we are still around in the $23k'ish. And so I say that there is no effect on that statement whatsoever.

Maybe others sell and panic, but there are more buyers obviously to make it even right now.

So yeah, we just need to calm down and if we have capital, just continue to buy and accumulate, simply as that.
1418  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: February 24, 2023, 02:45:05 AM
Plenty of reports that are saying we won’t see Durant on the floor for the Suns until at least Sunday, with a debut next Wednesday even a possibility. I want to see them in action, but with Booker just back in the lineup I can understand why they want to take it slow. I’m glad I’ll be able to see Durant play a lot more. Maybe even in person.

Yes, I also checked it out and indeed, Kevin Durant is reportedly set to make make Suns debut on March 1.. Fans are waiting patiently what would be the outcome of Durant's trade to the Valley of Suns and fortunately, we already have a date about it as he will likely make his debut on the road versus Charlotte Hornets.

Currently, the Suns is on the 5th seed of the West and just a game away from the 4th seed which is occupied by the LA Clippers. The next couple of weeks will be fun as the West is starting to get tighter because of the recent trade.

It's gonna be a wild wild west again this time. Everyone for sure have eyes on the Western conference. The Suns may never make a huge impact on Durant acquisition for the remainder of the season, but come playoffs, they will definitely be one of the hardest if not the hardest team to beat in the West.
Imo, they are not just really strong on papers, but they could make it work this time, most probably.

I think having Durant, no doubt will boost their chances in the West, but still we wanted how they are going to fair with other strong teams in their division specially the Nuggets.

The match up will be great, Gordon could either work on Booker or Durant and then Murray against CP3.

Hopefully as this could be the last chance of CP3, things c an work this time.
1419  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: [Warning]: Stealc Info stealer on: February 24, 2023, 12:45:02 AM
A new info stealer dubbed as "Stealc" has been discovered, which is similar to Vidar and Raccoon malware.
Can you tell me how to install this scary Stealc malware to Linux operating system, I am asking for a friend? Wink

Most of this malicious software is made for wiNd0ws OS, so best protection is not with installing bunch of antivirus programs, but it is in switching to good Linux OS.
All bitcoin wallets work perfectly fine on Linux, and you don't have to pay anything to someone who is spying and monitoring you 24/7.
I am recommending Fedora or Debina, but newbies can also try Linux Mint or Zorin OS, if they want gradual transition.

As far as I know it's only on Windows based OS so you are right.

I agree though, I haven't used Fedora or Debina, but I have been using Linux Mint on an old laptop of mine. I just used it for my crypto related activity for 2 years now.

99% of the time you can only get cracked software through torrents, not by downloading them from shady sites. And this has been true for a very long time.

But I'd imagine that Youtube would take down those videos and hacked accounts not because they were hacked, but because of their copyright policy instead.

Or we can report youtube channels if we suspect it as being a hacked account. I remember in 2018 wherein there is a huge spike in youtube accounts for this same purposes and probably it is continuing up to this day.
1420  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: February 23, 2023, 10:13:41 AM
LOL! Do people really believe that the Clippers will not benefit from acquiring Westbrook, and instead will struggle?

The odds should increase, not decline, but from what we are seeing, it seems like the bettors do not appreciate the decision of the Clippers to acquire Westbrook. Well, it's too early to conclude just yet. Let him play first, and then we will decide. As for me, I have a feeling that Westbrook will not be criticized with the Clippers; the opposite may happen.

Perhaps it was due to him becoming a "journey man", yes, I know it's a harsh term for Russ but that's how his career turn out to be after OKC. For sure, many bettors think that it was a bad decision and same here in the community.

We can't conclude yet until we see him play and see how the Clippers will do in the remaining games.

But let's put it this way, they are in the 4th position right now, so let's wait till the regular season and see what spot they ended with Westbrook on their lineup.
