1421  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Bitcoin mixer Bitwhisk.io seized by the FBI on: October 18, 2021, 05:51:30 AM
@leea

When they make an announcement, it's too late. They have already everything they need including the servers and its data (that's mean customers IPs and much more)

When Bestmixer has been seized in 2019, they started to investigate 1 year before. In fact, it started 1 month after the launch of the mixer. So we can say since the begining. They collected 1 year of email support, BTC addresses, IPs, transaction details,...
I remember months later they arrested a guy with a ton of cash, BTC wallets, luxury watches, and IICRC gold

Yes,,, I see now. So they already did everything they needed to obtain the information, but still it does not make sense for them to announce the seizure if they can continue to catch and collect.

Or perhaps they only do it when they need to close the case and move on. But I always feel like the enforcement seem to think too short term and announcing such things lengthens the work they need o do later on.

Yeah in qualifying organizations, I would imagine it would be up to the president of the UFC which is Dana White to decide which ones those are.
And to your second question, no. I don't believe there is such a competition for those in the same organization to rank up like that.

Good luck with your selections in the Vegas 40 competition.
I am backing Ladd to win in the main card.

Thanks for the info, it's very much for me like a shadow organization as they say,,, hard to see what happens and harder to see who makes it happens. Which is quite strange but for a new type of sport I guess it always starts in this way. I also took up Ladd to win the main fight but most of us did so we got knocked out by that first one!

I only got 4 right in this round, so bad!   Lips sealed

@vd309 welcome! This thread publishes and keeps track of all the past editions so you can check stats and bet on the game directly. Do you bet on every game? Now we have 2 every day Smiley I try to edit post to add the second game later.
Thanks, mate. No, I didn't bet on every game so far, but I might start doing it after this good strike.

I used to bet every game if I could catch but I am more careful now but the interesting statistic so far in over 200 games now is if you bet the maximum on every single game since the first edition, you would never have at any point been in a loss in between Blackjack hits. To explain, because odds of winning is 21x, you must lose 21 times in between a Blackjack to be in a loss. This has never happened Smiley

Opps pressed enter too fast.

1425  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: October 15, 2021, 01:59:33 PM
I'm expecting a very enjoyable and aggressive match between two of the best teams in Italy. No doubt that both the teams will be hungry for the win. Inter seems like they don't even feel the vacancy of Lukaku after he left as scoring goals doesn't seem like a problem for them. Although Lazio is also a tough competitor in this one but I think Inter might have a slight edge over Lazio in this one.

Inter was not just a team all about Lukaku that is why. Remember the brains behind them, and that brought the best out of Lukaku. I think though they are definitely more vulnerable but then again so are Lazio. Bookies have slight advantage for the home team here.

I love international matches, but I do not like officials who, pursuing their own interests, rape the football calendar with their innovations. For example, I do not understand the meaning of the existence of the League of Nations and the League of Conferences. I think these are temporary tournaments that will die out in a couple of cycles.

Money,,, nothing else about it. But to be perfectly fair also things like Conference League is something smaller countries and clubs also want, and since it involves mostly the smaller teams that have no chance to even hope for Champions League, I think it can be a good thing. Or are you talking about some other international country tournament? If so,,, I never heard of it.
1426  Economy / Speculation / Re: Next stop $85K for Bitcoin on: October 15, 2021, 12:38:43 PM
yes now the price of btc has indeed increased to a price of $58K, but whether this increase can last long or not, of course it is not certain because now the bitcoin price movement is too very slow and when there is some negative sentiment in the market it will make the bitcoin price go down and fail breaking the next price resistance, I personally really hope this week bitcoin will be able to pass the $60K price so that the bitcoin price will be able to rise even higher.

I do not feel like it is really slow though. I mean is 3-5% not fast enough growth in a day for you? Because most stocks would kill to have this kind of daily growth over a week. Do not forget only in September a month ago we were worried about going below $40k and now we are on the literal brink of $60000!

Anyway, negative sentiment is good for sustainability. I hate it more when there is nothing but good feel shills everywhere Smiley

Sorry if this sounds like a stupid question (I feel stupid for asking) but what does the FBI have to gain by seizing a dead website and also then announcing it? Would it not be better to seize it quietly and then collect all the data of people trying to still scam from it,,, or am I missing out the big picture from all of this police work? Smiley
1428  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UFC Fight Night & Main Event: Sportsbet.io Predictions & discussion on: October 15, 2021, 10:38:41 AM
Most of these fighters who have a flawless record in winning are from the contender series and them fighting in other organizations.
So I wouldn't go by their records alone but by their winning streaks in the UFC for their past fights.
Anyways, the next Vegas bouts should be easier to select. Just pick the favorites to win and put them on a multi betslip for this weekend.

Here is the multimasters for Vegas 40 for you to enter and once again it is free to do so:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5365536.0

So UFC is like a grand competition stage for fighters from all other organizations,,, okay I did not know that. And is there a qualifying type of competition like in martial arts you must fight people from the same organization, and in ranked competition, to upgrade. And then must fight minimum period or it expires.

I am also now entering my next predictions for Vegas 40! Thank you.
1429  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🚀-Sportsbet.io-🚀 - Main sponsor of Southampton FC 👋👋 on: October 15, 2021, 10:02:55 AM
- And my last choice is both teams to score in the Lazio - Inter game. I watched the Lazio - Roma game which ended by 3-2. And I expect a similar game to it this time too. Maybe we won't see 5 goals but both of these teams are very likely to score in this one too. And their last head-to-head game here ended by 1-1.

Nice bet for you, and good luck, I am not sure about Chelsea because Brentford plays like a demon when against the big teams! And the payout is amazing too,,, honestly I do not know any sportsbook giving away every week so many freebets and each is worth over $60 or even more thanks to BTC climbing up so high now  Shocked

I also saw there will be a news, if you are going to do it, then do it more publicly and share it here with the link of it. Like if it is actually huge, you guys are capable of hiring some famous celeb to make it happen for example, do it like that and share us the link with the text of it underneath. Cameo type of websites are very good for doing something like that.

He already did it,,, check out this post: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1458034.msg58178118#msg58178118

After bitcoin failure to break through the $58k price resistance yesterday, to be honest I'm also a little doubtful if bitcoin will be able to reach the price of $100K by the end of the year, I think bitcoin needs a strong push to be able to reach the price of $100K, and maybe we will be able to see the price bitcoin is around $80K-$90K at the end of this year and even then if bitcoin is able to maintain its momentum like a few days ago.

But you do know that as of right now, as of this writing,,, like exactly when you posted, Bitcoin is literally not failing at 58k and already broke to it now checking out 60k?

In fact, the daily high so far is 59961 and currently at 59k, so the next few hours if 60k breaks I think we already see a new ATH this weekend, if not even sooner depending on what whales do.
1431  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: October 15, 2021, 08:25:23 AM
There are less than two days left for the Lazio - Inter game. This might be the game that Inter will get their first ever loss this season in the Serie A. So far they won five games and drew with their competitors two times. Lazio are a very tough competitor and they beat Roma with a 3-2 result. Inter must be really really careful if they want to win. Because Lazio are playing much better at home. The safest bet options seems like both teams to score.
Lazio has been exciting this 2021/2022 season, and players like pedro who jose morinho threw-off the bus has reignited his Barcelona playing days, I think after inter milan in terms of winning by dominating their opponent lazio comes next for me in the Italian Seria A 2021/2022 season.
But I don't think they -Lazio- will give Inter milan their first lost this season, Lazio wants to play like inter milan this season and I think inter is better than then in that pattern of football so I predict loss for lazio.

Well to be fair he also took other players thrown off the bus and no one in the team displays it more than Tammy Abraham,,, who did so well under Lampard and saved Chelsea so many times,,, only to be ignored for the following season after they got their new coach and new international talents.

So Mou seems to do well with some and not with others,,, and on and off with guys like Dele Alli hehe!

But let us both enjoy the markets as they are and agree it is very much in the recovery and bull run now.
Technically is there something on earth that has no room for error but you still seem not to understand my point when said some prediction gives 100% result at some point which means the result was as predicted.
Having said that, if the market continues with the old trend the bear trend can happen anytime and once it starts we should expect blood bath market season.
[/quote]

Predictions are either right or wrong, there is no percentage (you cannot be 90% right or 50% right). 100% accuracy, as we first discussed or as you first actually mentioned, is also impossible because this means the prediction must predict exact price, exact time, exact volume, exact everything. So again, think about what 100% means,,, Smiley

But as I said, please let us not argue because clearly we both understand differently what is the meaning of "100%"  Grin

Small fees is always good sounding until something bad with network security undoes it all.
No, I'd never see a huge difference in fees before and after the hard fork as for me, the fees still aren't worthy for that. We're hoping that the hard fork will be the solution to this problem but too sad it fails and we become hopeless. Maybe we can see it was not a problem for those who transfer huge amounts of ERC-20 tokens but for those who are in bounty campaigns and wanted to sell the reward that is clearly a burden to them. That is why I understand their situation and I believe we have that kind of feelings.

I did see the difference at first, and actually if you look it up on block explorer also you can see much more easily what actual fees are (and you can objectively see that there is a very slight improvement in how much people pay on average,,,

Yes it is still very high there is no argument about that but it could be much higher.

Bounty campaigners,,, stop looking for tokens and start getting paid in real crypto then Smiley
1437  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: October 14, 2021, 06:18:48 PM
I have nothing against historical statistics, but it has very little relation to the current state of affairs. Verona is playing very weak away this season. Losing to Bologna 1-0, 2-2 with Salertiniana (at that time the last team in the table), 3-3 with Genoa - very weak results when playing with weak teams. I think that with Milan, which is now in second place and scored 19 points out of 21 possible, the result will be even worse.

Agree in a way but I am actually thinking also now that current state of affairs is always an unknown factor immediately after international playing. Every team has their form interrupted,,, and players are either better morally or low on morale, depending on how they played for their teams during the World Cup.

Which is why I really do not like internationals Smiley

Thanks for pointing out the update rdbase from your discussion thread Smiley

So I guess most of us are in the running for this competition now,,, the only problem maybe a lot of us cannot travel because of youknowwhat right? Like for me,,, travel is possible but must make full PCR tests yada yada,,, and if somehow you are positive (which is possible even with vaccine or worse, false positive) then you get quarantine for 2 weeks and your work is so not going to compensate you  Embarrassed So it is for sure out for me as option this year.

But for rest of you, good luck!!!
1439  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin on a recovery mode on: October 14, 2021, 04:19:39 PM
First, I believe your impression about the market was based on it been volatile in nature but you forget that the market usually replicates some previous price momentum at some point which Bitcoin halving effect is a perfect example.
Second, this is an issue to brag on but if you dive into crypto trading very well you'll know analysis market prediction at some point will give them 100% result. Don't misunderstand what I said.

OK we do not need to argue,,, but still 100% means no room for error and trading has no such thing as a guarantee, not even the most stable markets of real estate of precious metals Smiley

If "at some point" gives you 100%, then at other points it does not,,, this is not 100% Smiley

But let us both enjoy the markets as they are and agree it is very much in the recovery and bull run now.
1440  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Binance's 'Un-Ethical' changes. on: October 14, 2021, 04:03:07 PM
Yes,,, I was explaining how it was in the past but mandatory is the only way for them to survive now. Binance knows it is losing customers like this,,, but they also know if they want to gain more customers and operate properly in Europe again they have to do this.

What always made me curious is why they left Africa when KYC there is not mandatory.

More like they just want to get the authorities out of their asses. Being registered in the Cayman Islands do help a lot escape regulatory pressure, but based on how exchanges in general have been acting recently, it's only a temporary and definitely not a fix-all solution.

The exchanges still left in Africa are no precisely more compliant with authorities than Binance though and all of this exiting from Africa actually happened before all this news about the being closed out in Europe,,, although perhaps there were silent challenges that we as the ex-Africa audience are not able to read. Just like how we do not know 100% of what goes on in China.

Also all these offshore places are being clamped down by the world authorities so much so in future now to do business anywhere having a registration in a place like Cayman Islands will exclude you from licenses.
