1401  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Dilemma between focusing on B@bitcointalk and my current paid employment on: March 20, 2023, 09:48:16 PM
If I would be you, I'd stay at your current job. Maybe your job isn't high paying, but it's guaranted and stable income. What would you have if you would leave it? If it's your main account, I don't see how you can earn something significant now. Your rank is low and it's quite long way until you will able to earn money using. But even with high rank account I wouldn't not rely on income from Bitcointalk. Ok, maybe one month you will get good money, but nobody knows what will happen next. Maybe you won't be accepted into signature campaign or you will get scammed. What would you do then without income?
And as already said above, Bitcointalk shouldn't be considered as place to make money, it's more about getting some extra income while doing things that you like. Well, unless you're doing business here like selling various your services.

Feel so relieved all of us didn't jinx Barca, but maybe Trofo jinxed Real this time back in our favor.
Well, I jinxed that Real will score from open play. Actually, Araujo scored it, really bad luck for him.

Well i see the last 20 minutes of Barca Real, and Real was way better, in fact they disallowed a goal from Real Madrid for milimeters, and Barca ending wining like Madrid in UCL.

I went with a bold 2-1 from Real Madrid, so it really hurt.

And now..... a boring national team break.
I agree that Real was better in 2nd half and it looked that Barca would accept draw. And that Asensio goal - without watching replay I couldn't even think that it could be offside.
International break now, so we can continue discussing inflation rates around the world there Cheesy.

That is stupid and intentional,first of all how did they know that they didn't touch the car to become ready and not to gain an advantage but they read it as gaining an advantage which was not the case and this clearly shows the impact that the Mercedes team still has on the FIA together with Redbull who got a Safety Car for nothing,they even justified it that it was because of the GPS saying Stroll parked the car on track,ridiculous decisions during this race which impacted the race for the worse,I think that Alonso fully deserved the podium but that is racing.
So, FIA returned 3rd place to Alonso after Aston Martin made protest:
https://twitter.com/F1/status/1637576746324094976
It means that they investigated that moment for 35 laps and award ceremony - it's more than enough time to make detailed investigation and make right decision. But after protest and another investigation they decided to change decision. It would be very interesting to read explanation from FIA because what they did today is more than ridiculous.

Russia claims to have destroyed more HIMARS than Ukraine actually, but HIMARS continue their job silently, killing Russians and destroying their equipment every day.
Even old good TB2 Bayraktar seems to be still in action, despite that Russian already destroyed all Bayraktars that Ukraine had:

Main game of round between Braga and Porto ended 0:0. Difficult to comment without watching full game, but from what I saw, equal result reflects game. Benfica and Sporting benefit most from this result. Benfica extend their lead to 10 points and I have no idea what need to happen that they would waste such lead, especially when you see how they play.
Sporting meanwhile is getting closer to Braga and spot in CL qualification. If they will win rescheduled game, gap to Braga will be just 3 points.

You know what happens tonight after you wrote this post, don't you? Real will get at least one penalty and maybe even two, feel like Barca can't win tonight for La Liga to stay competitive until the end and to break their dominion over Real in last couple of games. In fact I am going to go and place a bet on Real penalty, just think they may be getting some soft calls today cause of the above and Barca ref scandal.
Yeah, I know that I probably jinxed with this post Cheesy. But I expect that they will score from open play, not penalty.
BTW, I just realised that's last game before long awaited international break...
1407  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Motosport General discussion tread --- Formula1, MotoGP, WTCC, ETCC, DTM..... on: March 19, 2023, 06:58:29 PM
It's ridiculous, Alonso got 10 second time penalty for not serving penalty correctly. Ok, rules are rules, but why did they waited so long to make decision and announced it after podium? So, now Russel becomes 3rd.
Perez is doing great in city circuits, it's his 5th win, 4 of them were achieved in street circuits.

Don't know why they even called this a safety car.
Stroll was outside the track, now Max got an huge advantage and he will probably win.
For me it also looked strange. Virtual Safety car or even yellow flag would be enough. It helped a lot for Max and with fastest lap he keeps 1st place in championship.

Winning La Liga in the middle of March sounds too good, but why not? Smiley. Backing Barca too. For me it's unbeleavable that after 12 games at home Barca is yet to concede goal from open play. Only their conceded goal was penalty.
Not very fun to read about Barca's involvement with refs, very shameful if it's true, but not surprising after all the hell our club has been through. I have to say as a fan I hope we pay for crimes, too bad the criminals are the people on top, and the whole club must pay, but I hope any punishment happens next season.
If everything will be proven to be right, I can't imagine how terrible outcome of it would be. We're talking about period of almost 20 years. It would be much bigger scandal than Calciapoli was.
But it doesn't looks that these payments helped much for Barca. I remember how many times Barca was robbed by referees, especially before VAR era.
1409  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Eredivisie 22/23 - discussion thread on: March 19, 2023, 03:32:09 PM
Feyenoord made serious statement for Eredivisie title by beating Ajax in Amsterdam 2:3. They already have 6 points ahead of Ajax with 10 rounds remaining. Ajax looked solid in 1st half, but in 2nd they performed very weak, what let Feyenoord to win. Betting on BTTS and over 2.5 in De Klassieker was such easy money.
Later today we have Vitesse - PSV and very interesting game between Twente and AZ where AZ won't be favorites. If AZ will fail to win it, their situation innfight for title will become very complicated
1410  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Conference League Discussion Thread -- 2022/23 | Round of 16 on: March 18, 2023, 07:11:51 PM
When I look at the matches I think it was a good draw, Fiorentina picked one of the easiest opponents. I see Fiorentina as the most comfortable team among these teams. The other matches will be closer to each other. I will be waiting for Nice to advance in the Basel-Nice match. nice is one step ahead in my eyes. Anderlecht - az alkmaar is a very obvious match. Both teams have eliminated strong opponents. But az alkmaar seems to be one step better. They could be the ones to advance. In the last match, I think that west ham will be the side that goes through, even if it is difficult.
I wouldn't be so positive about Fiorentina.. Maybe they got lucky with draw, but they're not playing best football themselves. Lech probably shouldn't make problems for them, but Nice is semifinals can be very difficult.
For me now AZ looks like main favorite to win tournament. They're playing best football from all remaining teams, after all they're fighting for title in Eredivisie. Potential semifinal with West Ham is probably final worthy game.
1411  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Europa League Discussion Thread -- 2022/23 | Last 16 on: March 18, 2023, 06:59:11 PM

That moment when MU have to travel to same city second round in a row and so far they faced only Spanish teams. As much as I would like to be wrong, I must admit that MU is main favorite now to win trophy. Europa league is Sevilla favorite tournamnet, but I doubt that they can make big problems for Red Devils.
Juventus - Sporting is 50/50 pair. And I got impression that in recent season Italian teams have lot of difficulties with Portuguese teams.
Feyenoord - Roma. Repeat of last season Conference league final. Now I would give advantage for Feyenoord, but you can't understimate Mourinho in knockout stages.
And Bayer - Union SG. Difficult to predict something here because you simply don't know what to expect from Union.
1412  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🦊 Betnomi.com | Champions League Pool ⚽️ Discussion Thread on: March 18, 2023, 06:40:23 PM
I agree with other tha's unfair that City and Bayern will face in 1/4 final already and that one side of bracket is significantly stronger than other. One of underdogs have great chance to reach final, though, probably it's not right to call Napoli or Benfica as underdogs when you see how they play.
Despite that I still would rule out Benfica from list of contenders. Guttmann curse is still alive

3 italian clubs in the QF - we haven't seen that one in a long time Grin
To be precise, it happened after 17 years.
1413  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Conference League Discussion Thread -- 2022/23 | Round of 16 on: March 17, 2023, 12:16:04 AM
Arsenal - Sporting, I think it's not big surprise that this game went to extra time and penalties. 2 same level teams and it's sad that one of them already got eliminated in 1/8 final. What a goal of Goncalves from the middle. He caught Ramsdale not ready and made just perfect shot. Penalties usually is more or less lottery and this time luck was in Sporting side.
I'm not sure what happened to Union Berlin. They got simply destroyed by Union Roayle. Didn't saw match in full, but it seems that Berlin basically didn't had chances in whole game.
Feyenoord 7:1 Shakhtar. Before game I expected confident Feyenoord win, but 7:1 is just brutal. Interesting thing that despite scoring 7 goals, their xG is just 1.71, I don't know how to comment it.

Villarreal getting eliminated by Anderlecht is biggest upset. I saw them as serious contender to win trophy, but when you lose against Anderlecht at home, about what we can talk? Very solid AZ Alkmaar performance against Lazio nad deserved win.
So, I think now we have 4 contenders - West Ham, AZ, Fiorentina and Nice without clear favorite and draw tomorrow will be very big factor.

Or, there's one guy taking the fall now. I always thought that CM had deep pockets from the start, and that doesn't sound like a single guy from Vietnam.
I thought about it too. I think it's quite common practice when business hire some random dude to be their public person. His name is used for things like hosting, bank payments, communication and etc, while real work is done by other people who remain behind the curtains.
1416  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: 📝[Discussion topic] Overview of Bitcointalk Signature-Ad Campaigns📝 on: March 16, 2023, 11:44:41 PM
Increasing budgets maybe in terms of increasing number of slots, but increasing pay rates because new members from a previous campaign are available? I doubt. I don't think they can do that. In fact, some members have already been taken up with the current rates.
I had increasing number of slots a bit in my mind. I think it's not worth to expect that someone can offer similar rates like Chipmixer had. Though, I'm not sure how likely to expect campaigns opening extra slots. Business is planning their budgets for longer therm and such decision would be not planned extra expenses.

didn't saw it coming, but Partizan won over Efes, and it is now on 16-13, at position 6, one win over position 8 and 9, solid for top8
Efes is on 15 loses and pretty much have hard task to get back into top8 position

Olympiakos made us a favor winning over Zalgiris, while Maccabi won over Baskonia in a direct top8 position fight
Efes improved their chances after win against Real, but now their situation is very complicated. What kind of level Euroleague we have if reigning back-to-back champions will not get into playoffs. While Olympiacos becomes firsty team which already have guaranted spot in playoffs. I looked at upcoming Zalgiris schedule, it's not easy, but when I looked at upcoming Partizan opponents - Oly, Barca, Real, Monaco and only PAO can be cosnidered as easy. Maccabi or Bakonia have mych better remaining schedule.

Leclerc will get 10 place grid penalty in Saudi Arabia race. It's only allowed to use 2 power unit control electronics components per season and Ferrari already done it 3 times. It's second race of season and Ferrari is starting to get penalties, it's just ridiculous.

It's really unfortunate to see Chipmixer campaign was ended, I think almost user in this forum have a dream to become a Chipmixer participant. However we've already see few mixer services got seized in the past, but now it's Chipmixer turn. But I will not be surprised if we will see a new mixer comes up sooner or later, it's might created by the same owner of Chipmixer.

However it's a good time for the other campaign to add Hero/Legendary rank slots because all of Chipmixer participants are high quality posters.
End of Chipmixer campaign is just consequences. It's more sad that to see what feds have done with Chipmixer. When they can take down biggest player in market, remaining mixers can't feel safe.
I don't know how many participants Chipmixer campaign had, but it was quite big campaign. And probably most of active campaigns would like to see Chipmixer participants wearing their signatures. So, they would need to raise their budget a bit if they want some quality advertising.

That's very sad day for crypto, but probably it doesn't comes as big surprise, considering narrative that mixers is used for money laundering. Yes it's used, same as many classic fiat money laundering schemes like offshore companies for example, but they aren't doing anything against it. And as someone noticed in Chipmixer thread, Feds chosen interesting timining to announce seizure of Chipmixer - bank crisis that's going on in US now.
I skimmed through investigation, but haven't checked all in detail. It's very detailed, 60 pages of information and for me it's interesting that they show everything in public. It's like a message for remaining mixers in market - we're watching you..
From what I understand, there is just one man behind Chipmixer and as I understand, he didn't got arrested. It seems that NGUYEN worked really hard to hide his identity, but still he got caught by using PayPal...

Any solid reason for them to seize bitcointalk.org?
I think it would be too much. Bitcointalk, same like Reddit was only used as platform to promote business, but it didn't got involved in money laundering
