It's sad that the Jazz is out for good. But it was a good season for them in spite of being branded as a rebuilding team. The team has too many future draft picks in the coming years. Lauri Markkanen showed star potential and hopefully, the management will try to start making the team competitive otherwise he is wasting his stay in Utah.

I want to see Dallas enter the play-ins rather than OKC. The Pelicans without Zion and the Timberwolves are inconsistent teams and are still beatable especially since Dallas has more playoff runs than these teams. I am not sure what happens if in case of a tie. Is head-to-head the first option? OKC is 2-1 against the Mavs so they are most likely to qualify then.

If you are holding real bitcoins and not contracts from leverage trading, why not just hold your bitcoins long term? But if you are feeling 50/50 and uneasy, you can sell half of your holdings. Or you can even sell your capital and HOLD your profit. I am sure you will be feeling relieved of the stress if your capital is already safe from possible losses.

$50k is possible but I won't bet that it happens this year. Next year and 2025 are the earliest times I am confident that bitcoin won't just reach $50k but $100k or even more.

If bitcoin reaches $35k within this month, I am still doubtful that it starts the real bull run that everyone is anticipating. There will be corrections all the way. Bitcoin may reach $45k this year but I am not sure if it can stay that high. I am more confident that a bull run occurs next year due to bitcoin halving. Now I will just continue my DCA. I still think that $20k is possible in the next months to come depending on how high bitcoin will pump this year. If bitcoin can reach $35k this month, the correction might happen in the following month at $25k something.

In terms of a big disaster like a nuclear war or a big calamity that destroyed the internet and electricity, things will obviously return back to the old days like the barter exchange. If you want a sack of potatoes and there are no more governments running effectively and there is destruction everywhere, I will not accept your dollar for sure. You need to pay for the goods with something valuable as well, maybe gold or other goods like chickens as you mentioned. I am not sure how bitcoin survives without internet. But I have a feeling that soon, all parts of the earth will be covered by internet even during huge disasters, the use of satellites will be further enhanced. Bitcoin will become more valuable by then even if the US dollar becomes worthless or with very low value.

When I first heard this, I was laughing because this seems like an inexperienced fighter with a good record in order to hype the fight. But at the same time, it is fine because I do not want to see Casimero becoming inactive if he is really serious about becoming a world champion again. And then I checked the 4 sanctioning bodies of boxing, the WBO is actually ranking Filipus Nghitumbwa as #10 which means this is an opportunity for Casimero to move up in rankings especially in the WBO if he is able to dispose of this Namibian in an impressive fashion.

So far Casimero is ranked WBO #5, WBC #8, and IBF #14. Nghitumbwa is WBO #10 and WBC #25. If all goes well, Casimero should be able to get his title shot next year for a chance to become a 4 division champion.

By the way, guys, WBA and IBF champion Murdojon Akhmadaliev will defend his belts this weekend on DAZN against Marlon Tapales. Casimero might face the winner of this fight or the Inoue-Fulton winner by next year.
 

I don't know why some people will consider bitcoin as the preferred money in criminal activities. If criminals are able to utilize bitcoin for over a billion dollars of transactions, then how much more criminals were able to transact using fiat money. At least bitcoin transactions are trackable thru an honest blockchain whereas fiat transactions especially cash aren't trackable at all. Billionaires, millionaires, businessmen, politicians, and companies can use as dummies to transact illegal transactions.

All things created with good intentions can be used for criminal activities as well. Pencils are made for writing and drawings but someone can use them to kill someone.

Congratulations mate! That was a solid 3-0. Thanks as well for sharing your tips here. I am tailing again but only the Philadelphia 76ers vs Miami Heat this time. It seems like the oddsmakers just realized Jazz vs Thunder over 234.5 is a steal. I only have 236.5, 237.5, and 238.50 here. GLHF for these games.

Standing: 3-0
Gains(+)/Losses(-): +2.66

It is up to you if you include the units in your tracks mate. And with regards to the same thread that is already existing, to avoid possible deletion from an admin, maybe you just simply change the title of the thread to "ElectraBets NBA unders/overs tips". This would clearly distinguish your thread from the other existing thread.

Lol! To be honest, I have the same choice as you, if I were to decide which direction bitcoin is headed. I mean, it is more profitable to us if bitcoin dips since it will lower down our average price. My conservative assumption on the bitcoin price this coming 2025 is $100k minimum. This means if I continue to purchase bitcoin at $28k above, I might not be able to x4 my ROI with my conservative target. Anyways, maybe I'll just compensate for it with my altcoins which I also expect to grow a lot during a bull run.

Anyways, at least we are free from anxiety about the bitcoin price whether it goes up or down.

I also see the Sacramento Kings as the weakest of the top 4 in the western conference. There are still 2 to 3 games remaining but the Kings will probably remain in the 3rd spot. But it won't be easy for these low-ranked teams to position themselves as 6th since these teams are too tight with each other. The Lakers cannot relax either as losing the last 2 games might drop them to rank 9 which is very difficult. The Lakers will enjoy home games in its last 2 games but it is facing the Suns and the Jazz. The Suns might take the game seriously in order to retain its 4th spot which is a home-court advantage during the playoffs. The Jazz on the other hand is still alive and it needs to win 2 or 3 of its last remaining games for a chance to enter the play-ins.

The presence of DAZN, Showtime, and ESPN where each of these networks has exclusive deals with various promoters somehow affected big fights and supposed mandatories. Although they did create a lot of opportunities in general as these networks established their own superstars. But fighters from different networks especially the big names have difficulties making fights because of the exclusive deals. Unlike before when HBO and Showtime are open to any promoters and fighters. The 4 sanctioning bodies especially the WBA and WBC are more into business as we rarely see these organizations issue a mandatory from different networks to avoid possible issues.

I just checked my crypto portfolio (excluding stable coins) and I noticed bitcoin is already 62% of my whole portfolio. I am now making a weekly and a monthly DCA on bitcoin and it will continue for at least this whole year. I am also starting to accumulate altcoins slowly as I felt like they are already on the move. I am very conservative when it comes to predictions, especially on bitcoin. Bitcoin is probably at least $100k in 2025 so it's like 400%. Altcoins however are the ones to soar very high during big bull runs. I expect my altcoins to be more than 50% of my portfolio come the year 2025.

By the way, I am observing and waiting for the Shanghai upgrade of Ethereum. There is a big chance that it will drop in price and it is a great opportunity to buy more if it happens. My Eth prediction in 2025 is $10k.

I am not that affected by the swings of bitcoin nowadays. I just started another DCA last December and it is doing good so far. If bitcoin drops, I am happy because my next buy will be cheaper which means lowering my average cost. And if bitcoin increases, I am seeing the green gains in my portfolio tracker and it feels good. Bitcoin will continue to have swings and some of them might be big swings but still, I am optimistic that its price will be better than last year. Halving is coming, so we expect a better year.

These newbies are always the ones that will get hurt when bitcoin takes a little dip and they are also the ones that wanted to buy bitcoin cheaply. I know some newbies are still waiting for bitcoin to drop to $12k or something and it most likely not happening. Now bitcoin is at $28k and it might continue to increase slowly in the next months to come. So for the newbies out there that are waiting to buy bitcoins cheap, you better start your won DCA right now while we are still a year away from the halving.

Since it's been over a week already that I haven't had a bet, I will copy your 3 picks. Good luck with the bets.

By the way, it would be better if you also add the odds gained/lost. Because tracking your win-loss at 4-2 alone does not reflect your gains and losses due to the house edge. Let's say the odds of your previous bets were at 1.85 then it means you are at a profit of 1.40 odds/points. This is just a suggestion so no pressure anyways as you might also have different amounts per bet.

0.85*4=3.40 winnings
1*2=2 losses
3.40-2 =1.40 net gain.

I know there are still a lot of people that are skeptical about bitcoin but I don't think I need to convince them. For what? A lot of my family members and friends talked to me about bitcoin and crypto as a whole, especially in the past years. I can only explain to them the basics regarding its decentralized manner and its blockchain, I do not have to go further because it is up to them if they were interested to go deeper, the internet is available everywhere. I don't want people to blame me if ever their investments fail. Because whether we like it or not, most of them are only interested in the profit side.

Nako malabo ako ma-approved nun dahil di nadin ako ganun ka active dito sa lokal kabayan. Yung totoong active dapat para mataas ang chance makalusot.

Nung nakita ko naging spammer mga hindi spammers di ko na rin nilaro yung game.

Yung isang prank parang di nalagay sa tama IMO. Nagpasa na din ako nun later at baka nga naman totoo.

Meanwhile, Josh Taylor's rival Jack Catterall just signed with Matchroom Boxing. He is looking forward to shaking the dust off being also inactive for a year after delayed negotiations and cancellations to the supposed rematch with Josh Taylor. He also believed Teofimo Lopez will win over Josh. Although his prediction might be biased, he might be annoyed with Josh knowing most of the public thought he won the belts and then comes his inactivity after hoping for the rematch to happen.

Josh Taylor on the other hand seemed to be too confident despite his inactivity and poor performance in his last fight against Catterall. I can feel that he is belittling Teofimo Lopez's ability to win as he is predicting the big possibility of him taking out Teofimo in the early rounds.

Arbitrum is already a promising project worth a billion or billions soon. I actually thought the price of ARB to be like cents 75 once the dumplings are done so I can buy and then sell at a projected $1 to $2 short term. I did not expect the price to remain solid at $1+ but maybe it will drop once the crypto market becomes bearish. About its long-term price, ARB will be worth billions by 2025. Maybe a $5 minimum, but of course, it will also depend on how the team will use and dispose of the treasury funds which is more than 4 billion ARBs.

I also want Ryan to win an upset. He is a product of careful matchmaking by GBP and he just blew it all by being inactive and agreeing to all of Tank's Mayweatherish demands. I doubt the Haney-Loma winner or any of the champions at 140 will offer him a fight if he losses this one badly and of course, he won't be getting a million too. He needs to get back in the win column if he wants to get his first title shot.
 
We can only speculate unless we can see the actual results. But I will bet that if Garcia will be badly outclassed and gets KO'd by Tank, he will be out of boxing. Maybe he will consider returning in a year or two return if he becomes financially broke otherwise he is good to go.

In a PPV fight, there are no facts unless all buys are accounted for. Ryan is popular even outside of boxing and Tank has followers from the PBC hood. So I guess Ryan can easily bank a minimum of $5 million here.
