That I have to agree with you but you cannot really generalize all Italian teams being left behind by their other European counterparts. Some of the top teams have really good training facilities and they have one of the most world class youth development facilities to date. And since I know A.C. Milan more I'll be talking about their recent moves with regards to their infrastructure. Aside from A.C. Milan having Casa Milan as their training facility Milan and Inter both agreed that they'll be constructing a new stadium to replace San Siro as their Home and I think that's a big start for two Serie A teams in the league.

Do you know, it's called San Siro when AC Milan play, next week, when Inter come here, the same stadium was called Giuseppe Meazza. So, two clubs, same field and two names. Is it normal? Just think what it will be if Man. United and Man. City play on the same ground or Liverpool and Everton to share one stadium. No way.

Like I said I am a Milan fan and this kind of little detail is not left unnoticed yes I know they play home and away and vice versa at one stadium that's why they call it Derby di Milano every time they face each other San Siro for Milan fans and Giuseppe Meazza for Inter fans. On the rumors of the new stadium it was first reported that Milan (not Inter) will be leaving San Siro but with the recent news it looks like Inter have agreed that they'll be also sharing the same stadium as Milan again maybe because of financial reasons so still in the future Derby de Milano will be played in one Milan stadium again.

That would be the ultimate FUD we will have even bigger than what we had last time, worst case scenario is this might be the bear market we may never recover. Satoshi offloading his entire portfolio would just be like an owner of a company selling his own shares which would have the same effect in the market. Not only it affects the demand and supply it also decreasese any kind of confidence in the market.

You forgot to mention that Sirius/Martti Malmi also owns the domain name of Bitcointalk which he pretty much is the owner of the website, theymos even mentioned it himself. Sirius owns the domain but from how I understand it Cøbra and theymos are the ones who are running it now on the background though Cøbra is not active here in the forum anymore he is the one who have the ultimate control over Bitcointalk's domain name and its settings.

It still baffles me why Facebook will allow the creation of fake/scam accounts even for established companies without asking for some sort of documentation to ascertain authenticity. As a rule of thumb,the account with higher subscribers is likely to be the real account

If people now are complaining KYC requirements on crypto wallets, exchanges, and gambling sites what more will they say if FB (and maybe Instagram) ask KYC for verification? Facebook won't do it on their own not until its some kind of law for them to follow, its like they are limiting their own products (which is us the users) for nothing in return. Aside from that this is also an issue of privacy for the real users, social media websites are used for entertainment purposes wth would they need to verify their accounts if its not yet financially related?
1625  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: [BEWARE] Facebook Fake/Scam Giveaways! on: July 14, 2019, 08:32:13 PM
Apparently Cointelegraph's Official FB page is aware of this situation and they pinned the post about it. The problem I see here is even Cointelegraph's official fb page doesn't have any  verified badge under their profile so any scammers can just copy their page and comment on all of their posts and pretend that they are the ones commenting for a promo. This scams in FB or in any social media won't stop and reporting them is not a permanent solution so really being vigilant is your way to avoid this scams.

The problems with Italian football are present not just because of their defensive mentality. I don't think that mentality will ever change, that is what makes them what they are.
The problems are in the infrastructure and the stadiums. Italian stadiums are old and unattractive. They look like huge concrete prisons and not a place where you want to bring your family to enjoy a football match. Italian clubs don't own their stadiums, except Juventus. They rent them from the city.

Then there is the problem with fake merchandise that is being sold close to the stadiums which is actually unbelievable in the first place.
The President of Napoli talked about this when fans asked him why he doesn't invest more like Juventus does with Ronaldo. He told the fans they need to change their 'cheating' mentality and support the club instead. Stop manufacturing and distributing fake Napoli shirts and instead buy the official merchandise from the club. He also mentioned that Napoli fans are paying off the stewards who are checking the tickets to let them in for free.

There are so many things that need to change for Italian football to again be competitive. 

That I have to agree with you but you cannot really generalize all Italian teams being left behind by their other European counterparts. Some of the top teams have really good training facilities and they have one of the most world class youth development facilities to date. And since I know A.C.

18. Having multiple accounts and account sales are allowed, but account sales are discouraged.
Why not give him a chance for this one time to really see if he is worthy to have an untainted account?
Theres no such thing as second chance with these abusers,he knew that multi accounts are allowed until you are proven using those to bounties.

He didn't knew anything, like most newbies here who got banned from plagiarism, ask loans without collateral, and even attempt to buy another account they don't exactly know the rules as they don't even read it. Let's go back to my first point that we don't actually know if he had bought the account we just know he attempted to buy one so the way I see it he ain't actually guilty of buying an account.

I guess when you are talking about “not so obvoius” reasons you are not expecting talks woth regards to overprinting money, inflation, and supply and demand but I still think this are the ones who hit the economy hard. So I'll give you the answer that one of the economy killers right now are high rates of people not meeting their basic needa such as food, water, and a home. Without the most basic of needs then other things such as going to school, working, and other means to earn money is lost  because it simply makes them impossible to achieve them.

Saw the thread created in the meta section first by one of the members who got painted red by you so I'm just putting my own opinion here. I'm sure you already know the rule that I quoted above but I'm just putting it for others to have a reference. Although I'll say right away to crypto|george that it wasn't ThePharmacist's fault that you aren't reading rules the red tag he received for was not directly a rule violation as stated above. Like what the rule have said it's just discouraged and even though he showed interest in buying an account there's really no proof that he have bought the account more so now that he is wanting to remove his Newbie ranking account shows that he is still using this account. Why not give him a chance for this one time to really see if he is worthy to have an untainted account?

You ask it as if it's some kind of mystery on why Bitcoin does that in the market. Aren't you aware that Bitcoin since going up back above 10,000$ a lot of people's target price are already set in place for profit taking? In case you haven't figure it out already most cryptocurrencies aren't your normal asset that can go for a steady growth for about for years, most of the time its waves of upwards and downwards movement brought to either the buying and selling of people taking advantage of the market's movement. Even if it is the bear market you will see the same thing, nothing has really change except for it moving on a wider range.
1631  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: International regulation of cryptocurrencies on: July 11, 2019, 07:25:52 PM
I believe you are using the word "international" in a wrong way. If you are only talking about crypto laws in each country than you can't call it international since they are just the domestic laws for that country. You might have to change your title into an accurate one such as "Domestic Crypto Laws Known in Countries" or "Crypto Laws Internationally" because really "International Regulation" isn't really the sentence for it since we really don't have one to begin with.

P.S.

Since we are talking about legal issues here why not put some reference link for your borrowed pictures in your written article for you to set up a good example to others.

Guys ang wayback machine ay hindi lang gamit sa pag-archive ng mga webpage hah yung buong website na yan naka store lahat ng websites na pina-archive sa kanila kaya makikita mo mga historical saves na pinagamitan yung website nila. Maayos nga sya dahil makikita mo yung mga dates kung kailan na save yung website kaya makikita mo yung changes. Madami na din naitulong yan mapa-scam ba yan or mga deleted content like articles and other info na pwede niyong mabasa ulit.

I think you are overplaying it's “usefulness” towards its contribution to BTC's value. Because still at the present date Bitcoin as a payment method is hardly seen on any establishment especially when you are living on a country who isn't crypto friendly. Its use as a currency plays very little towards its price increase as demand, FOMO, and whales pumping it is the main reason why it is increaaing.
1634  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Defending against the accusation of gambling on: July 10, 2019, 08:18:36 PM
I like to point out that derivatives and leverage trading is not the only thing they are planning on banning in the UK. They are also planning to ban the most basic trading in the market which is retail investing. What they mean by retail investing is us the basic consumers who are planning to participate in any exchange to trade. If they go ahead with this direction they will be no different than what India has done to their crypto industry, they even have the guts to slap it in their face when they plan to release their own government sanctioned crypto.
1635  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Important terms that are frequently confused. on: July 10, 2019, 06:50:32 PM
I haven't seen any confusion here with the terms wallet,address, and wallet address based from what I see in the forum. I see some newbies here even mixed up the terms from wallet address/bitcoin address/bitcoin wallet address and from what I see they know what they are talking about or at least still make some sense with their post. These maybe brought up by what they read in and outside the forum since even articles use the term "wallet address" when they are referring to the address of your wallet. We in the crypto industry really didn't have a proper education with regards to a lot of things so I think some popular phrases such as wallet address should be acceptable and understandable by everyone.
1636  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2019-07-10]LG Applies for Patent to Launch Crypto Wallet App on Mobile Devices on: July 10, 2019, 06:16:33 PM
Is LG planning to hijack the crypto-wallet/phone brand industry with this patent? Because they aren't even the ones who pioneered it when Samsung has launched it with their Galaxy S10 devices last March. I don't think that they need to be greedy with this technology especially if they aren't the ones who even applied it with their phones in the first place, now if they are successful with their patent phone brands will come scrambling on how they will have a unique crypto wallet on their own without copying what LG has to offer.

~snip~

Hopefully russ and towns will click. Considering that they're in a very stacked western conference, they may have no choice or we'll see another big time player move out at the end of the season. Westbrook i think is more of a stat-padding type of player. You need to have efficient role players to make his style work, like the kind james harden has with the rockets. I hopenhe doesn't end up like another melo.


Another thing that I really don't like about this trade is if Jimmy Butler didn't workout for the Timberwolves well what made them think that Russell Westbrook is a different guy? They have the same locker room mentality and is toxic offcourt which lead to them having a bad relationship. Look at Boogie Cousins now with his short temper and wrong attitude no serious teams are taking him anymore, he's lucky that he even have a 1 year contract with the Lakers now.
1638  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: "we wont let crypto become the next numbered anonymous swiss bank account" on: July 09, 2019, 06:04:20 PM
I don't think those 6/4 countries will let this other countries bully then whe  obviously their crypto industry works well with their system.

All I really see them doing is heightening the level of implementation of existing KYC rules. This doesn't necessarily mean that the crypto industry will stop performing well, just that compliance is going to be more troublesome than it already is. There's no bullying happening, or at least among the states involved.

Yeah that's probably be it but when I say “bullying” it will be a series of talks and debates before this imrpoved KYC enforcement happen. With various international oganizations tackling the topic of crypto I don't expect the FATF will be a walk in the park for the countries involve. They'll probably talk about bans and restrictions but I know not all vountries part of it will follow what the group wants.
1639  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Season on: July 09, 2019, 02:54:14 PM
Looks like my Timberwolves team is one of the frontrunners to land Russell Westbrook and the media is not quiet about it. To be honest it's the first time that I'm not happy they will be receiving a superstar if this happened. Westbrook for me is not a long-term solution for the team yes he can contribute right away and help KAT but will he be here after the end of the season or the next one after that? I don't think so, I'll be glas if Rosas didn't push thisbtrade through.
1640  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Russia, Philippines, Indonesia and India support crypto the most on: July 09, 2019, 01:28:35 PM
Lol did this EVEN Foundation conduct their survey within BCT members? Because the survey toppers are also the ones who have the most active local board here in the forum. In terms of online activity when it comes to bounties, hyips, and other methods of earning crypto outside the scope of it (mining, trading) then there is no doubt that these countries would be leading the race. But in terms of countries having a crypto-friendly government with regulations in place we might see other countries appearing in that survey.
