Atalanta - Ajax was a very entertaining game to watch! If Atalanta's goalie was in a better shape yesterday Atalanta could have easily won this one! Amazing game by Zapata, what a goal the second one: the Colombian picked up a Pasalic cross to burst into the area and score.

I don't like to get this into politics however ETFbitcoin correctly said this is happening because bitcoiners, especially old ones, are conservative which in my humble opinion is good

Honestly it depends on your ideology. For example, i wouldn't say conservative on Bitcoin is 100% good.


You see it's not about any ideology: the way it is now bitcoin works amazingly well. It does what it says since 11 years which is quite a great accomplishment having had to fight 24/7 from January 3rd 2009. I believe it is a robust protocol developed by some of the best minds on Earth.
Taking a conservative approach allowed the protocol and the network to grow in strength and resilience.
Whatever the word conservative means in all this I actually do not care so long as bitcoin works like this.
To conclude, I truly hope this move of sponsoring bitcoin devs it is what it is, only support nothing else.

If the Core developers believed that it was better to experiment with "features", then I believe Bitcoin would have already forked before the Bitcoin Cash scam.
I think I got your point but I fail to see how that is connected with what I wanted to point out: actually do you know what? More than developers now we need people to fight into the real world where bitcoin battles every day. We do not need more devs, we need more nodes.
The network must be able to rapidly broadcast blocks to all nodes, right? Let's sponsor them, not developers

I didn't know if we'd see JPM change their tune as long as Jamie Dimon was in charge, but it is definitely encouraging. 

Now they just need an ETF.  Everyone has had more than a decade to buy before the big boys do more, and it still isn't too late.  I told people in the fall of 2010 that they should buy some, but no one cared to listen.  I did again in 2013 (and in between and since), but only a few people did.  Now people kick themselves. 

(Just like internet domain names in 1993, 1994, and 1995 - no one would take the time to educate themselves and act and then complain later about things being "unfair".  It is about choices.  You can spend some time learning or not, but live with the consequences.)


I am totally with you on this. I started heavily accumulating (at least with what I could afford) when Bitcoin dropped in March 2020. It was a no-brainer: while all the govs were engaged (and still are) in QE inflating the money supply bitcoin looked me as the only asset to use to store and secure my wealth.
Of course I told many people to buy again but nobody bothered to listen.

Wisdom.
I also had to learn the hard way, but here I am, stronger than ever looking at how whatever I predicted years ago is coming to light. I don't answer old friends and colleagues requests about bitcoin anymore.
I gave them the truth and they couldn't bother listen to me. Now they are asking again but I am not like the Lord.
I basically taught them how bitcoin works, how to store the keys, how to buy them, how to clean them, how to avoid scams, how to avoid shitcoins.
I should actually go to them with a fu***** huge invoice they should pay me!
1426  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2020-10-21] Breaking: PayPal Goes Bitcoin, Ethereum And More on: October 27, 2020, 02:46:18 PM
Whatever you may think of PayPal, embracing bitcoin means banks and other relevant financial institutions need to adopt it as fast as possible. This is a race to deploy bitcoin on top of their current offer, can't you all see it? We don't even imagine the amount of OTC trades happening in the background (I am witnessing them for work but can't disclose anything obviously). This is an avalanche that can't be stopped and it won't stop: PayPal is only the first of its own, other will surely follow.

2 - Paid press releases from casinos - I guess you are already working on this but it looks me this could be a nice boost for your gosu revenues. You are not here for glory only, aren't you?
2) You mean offering casinos the possibility to publish press releases on the gosu in exchange for cash? Cheesy Hmmm... yeah, that's definitely true, at one point I will need to make some money, never made a secret out of that. Smiley
Yes, you can start deploying a detailed offer for casinos and other gambling sites to pay PRs on BTC GOSU. It's a win-win situation: they get some exposure and paid marketing while, of course, you get some money  Wink
There's nothing wrong about getting paid for this: your only responsibility is to not promote blatant scams and to carefully check what they write. Easy
1428  Economy / Gambling / Re: ⭐ BTCGOSU ⭐ Your Trusted Guide to the Best Bitcoin Casinos ⭐ on: October 27, 2020, 08:09:41 AM
two things from my side as I explore Gosu in details.

1 - Deposit guarantee - this is such a great service you give! Considering the huge scams and robberies we saw during the years this is a great add-on (maybe you want to have it more visible so that users are aware)

2 - Paid press releases from casinos - I guess you are already working on this but it looks me this could be a nice boost for your gosu revenues. You are not here for glory only, aren't you?

Such a contradiction: twenty-two guys can sweat, run, hug each other, breath in front of others while millions will be locked up in their houses.
This is a farce, really.
People losing their jobs, closing their shops, wasting all their savings while rich kids keep playing while still being virus carriers. I don't understand  Roll Eyes

Bitcoin was higher, appearing to hold above $13,000 for the first time since January 2018.

But the most drama in crypto markets came after an exploit of the decentralized finance protocol Harvest Finance sent the platform’s native FARM token tumbling by 65% in less than an hour.

In traditional markets, European stocks slid as Spain declared a COVID-19 state of emergency and Italians were urged to stay home. U.S. equity futures pointed to a lower open on signs of a resurgence in the coronavirus and dimming hopes for a big stimulus package prior to the election. Gold was little changed.

It feels so normal to read such news about bitcoin while if we go back in time these kind of news outlet were impossible less than 4 years ago! Bitcoin momentum is building up fast

This is a pretty detailed guide which covers most of OP doubts. Surely, whenever we die we no longer have access to our beloved keys: for this reason it is of extreme importance to make sure that somebody we love will be able to access our btc stash. If we do not make sure about this our stash is gone forever.
1432  Economy / Economics / Re: Lend at Hodl Hodl: True P2P Bitcoin lending is here on: October 27, 2020, 06:40:38 AM
I've heard about hodlhodl.com,but there aren't many reviews online about this website.
I don't want to use platforms,which don't have enough active users,hence there's not enough liquidity.
The fact that there's no KYC required doesn't mean anything to me.Sooner or later,hodlhodl.com will have to abide by the regulations and implement KYC verification,if they want to stay in business and avoid problems with the authorities.
That is your opinion and anyway as long as hodlhodl keeps operating that way is good for everyone. I am not worried because there will be a thousand hodlhodl in the near future: these are profitable businesses in the bitcoin industry hence the more will come the better.
If they will ever introduce KYC most of us will look elsewhere and as I said there will be plenty of alternatives.

Another interesting development after https://sovryn.app. The time is ripe for valid Bitcoin alternatives to the utter DeFi crap that's been upon us since last year; I have to study the platform now because I need to know how it works before trying it.

Thanks
If you get no reply in a reasonable amount of time I would go as far as opening a thread in the Scam Accusation board. Better be safe than sorry.

Meanwhile, there was a point during the match when I though Griezmann had started from the bench  Grin Barcelona should consider looking to sell him. He's never going to be good at Barcelona.

Greizmann, was purchased just for PR and in order for the board to save  face. He was suitable for the Barcelona style, and he's confidence has great diminished since he's joined the squad. I'd currently rather have Suarez up front, despite his age and injury issue than Greiizmann.
yeah, I agree. Griezmann gave up a spectacular career at Altético Madrid for becoming a star at Barca, but so far his Catalonia adventure has been a huge disaster. I mean he's a good player but he seems someone else now!
