How do you like this story?

Oh so it's a transfer of account not Bitcoin more particularly a BCT account promoting Chipmixer you are talking about? In this case I don't think there is a right of succession going on when it comes to a death of a BCT user to one of his/her loved ones since Chipmixer or any signature campaign has hired that one and only user posting on that account and not you. Think about it this way if a CEO of a company dies it doesn't mean his/her children have some kind of line of succession into taking his place it doesn't work that way.

Are people gonna actually bet on this fight? Because you won't really see an equal matchup here and obviously Mayweather and Paul are doing this for money purposes and maybe added fame for Logan Paul which he actually really really like. The only way to stop this two from earning money from their useless ways of facing each other is for us to actually not watch them. I myself personally didn't knew about the Nate Robinson vs. Jake Paul match up not until I saw the vid where Robinson was put to sleep. IMO don't add to the noise people are giving for this people especially don't bet on this kind of shit.
183  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: December 12, 2020, 09:38:27 PM
I do not really find this foreign investor thing as a great idea for many football teams. The fact is that in many american sports teams you can see that owners try for two things, either make profit directly each season, or get their team worth more even if they lose money but gain overall from increase of team value.

It means they see this as a purely business deal and nothing more, they do not feel anything about the team at all, this works for other nations investing as well. For example if a team from burnley that means someone from burnley should probably own it, either born there or raise there or lives there whatever. When you have absolutely no connection at all, it becomes just a business and that may bring success but doesn't have that type of soul anymore at all.

You'll barely see any football team owners that has passion on the sport and the city or place they are representing. These guys will always see profit that's why you will see some teams when a player had a breakout season they will immediately accept a transfer because they want the huge amount some even don't care about how the season will be affected because of that transfer. Right now you really don't have to look far to see that the current situation will always be about profit and how they will be maximizing the value of their assets and that is including players.

Yeah maybe they aren't directly buying Bitcoin into an exchange platform but it is highly likely they are still buying from exchanges that have OTC option for institutional investors like Coinbase. Because I don't think we will see a lot of whales that have this kind of service where they will sell directly their Bitcoins to other people. Them going to an exchange I think will also be more simple for them legal wise buying onto a official crypto-related business rather than someone who just holds a lot of Bitcoin.

Without Ibra Milan still win when faced with Sampdoria but just make two goal only, I think if they have Ibra Milan could scoring more than two goal and now he on the first top scorer in Serie A for AC Milan. Most change without Ibra although Milan can win almost match when Ibra injury and positive covid. but Milan could make more superior when Ibra playing at the first minutes, there are not debate between Milan with Ibra or not but most effective winning if Milan can playing with Ibra. I think Milan can't be on the first position standing without have the lord Ibra because he gave many motivation for Milang young player.

With or without Ibra AC Milan hasn't been known to be outdoing things when it comes to outscoring teams against them. I barely see Milan have games where they have 4 or more goals most of them are 3 below so Ibra's presence isn't really a factor when it comes to Milan having a few goal highlights when it comes to the matches. Maybe it is one of their characteristics even if they have changes a lot of managers in a few years they haven't been known to score a lot of goals just to win games.

Dear Sir, Madam,

Thank you for the notification.

We have informed the reseller about your complaint and he will investigate this issue. If we do not receive any update from them, we will suspend the domain after 2020-12-17 12:23:09 CET and it will stop working.

Please, check this article about abuse procedure in order to know more about the responsibilities of the registrar: https://support.openprovider.eu/hc/en-us/articles/360001725008-Reporting-abuse.

Have a nice day.
Kind regards,
Abuse Team

Max day that we will see the site suspended is on December 17. So I do hope that from this time and up to December 17, no one will fall for this trap.

Wow domain hosters actually do this kind of things? Or maybe it depends on the domain hosting services that depend if they will suspend the website or not. Phishing sites or scam websites are mostly created using namecheap and I haven't seen them do any kind of action when it comes to suspending websites maybe that is why a lot of scammers are using it because aside from the accepting cryptocurrencies I think they don't care what kind of content you have in your website as long as you are paying them.

4. LaMelo Ball. So much hype because of their father's connection. I still want to see this kid's craftsmanship in the NBA first before making an assessment.  Cheesy

Hype is because he is good point guard that is 6 feet 8. That is talent than Luka Dončič. Of course he dont have Lukas strength. But still with his size he is a good rebounded. He is far from perfect and have many weaknesses, but still so good that if all will go fine will play for long time in the NBA. 

Yeah Ball is being hyped up by a lot of people but it doesn't mean because he is a good basketball player. Yeah stat-wise and his performances look good in the basketball league in Australia but it doesn't mean it will translate into NBA just like how college players failed to translate in the NBA, this is evident to a lot of kids being a bust even if a lot of players and analyst predicted them to have a good NBA career but they turned out to be a bust. Also there is a in-depth analysis on Lamelo's stats it just shows that he is a below-average player in the NBA in most stats he has.

PG13 will probably stay this time around, I can't guarantee it but I do not see anything much more marvelous in his career from here on out for the next 5 years. However clippers may decide to trade him if they can find someone to take it in the later stages of the contract. Both parties have done this before and parted ways, Clippers gave Blake Griffing a 5 year contract and then send him to detroit not even a full year later, and PG13 had a huge contract with OKC and requested trade as well, which somehow didn't even effected OKC that much because they still went to first round even without PG13 and westbrook.

So, what we have is 5 year contract but two parties that never cared for it. Let's see if things will be different this time around and will they keep their promises this time.

Paul George signing a max contract doesn't also mean that he is committed or loyal to the Clippers, it doesn't even guarantee that he will be staying with LAC for the whole 5 years. For the financial standpoint I think we can say that Paul George did this for the money, he is 30 years old that has come off from a horrific injury Clippers offered him a max contract besides all of that so Paul George took the best opportunity he have since it is a win-win for him. If things doesn't work out well with Kawhi then he can always demand a trade to another competitive team, for the Clippers they have a good trade value out of him for teams still chasing that championship.
189  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Pakistan Moves to Legalize Bitcoin as Economy Tumbles on: December 07, 2020, 06:19:17 PM
It's really good news that the Pakistan government will legalize Bitcoin in their country knowing that the majority of the population are the young ones which could be considered as another hype for mass adoption.  Legalizing Bitcoin in the country IMO could also help the economy especially if they will fund the mining industry of bitcoin whereas they will gain numerous Bitcoin which can be used and put into the circulation of their market that may lead to the growth of the economy without the needs of printing fiat money.

However, there could still be disadvantages to this movement such as the government may later gain control over Bitcoins since if it will be legalized all transactions will be subjected and abide by the laws that will be set forth by their government, and one of these laws it could break the anonymity of Bitcoin holders which is one of the ideology that Bitcoin offers us.

Legalizing cryptocurrencies is just one thing supporting the crypto industry is another, if they do really want to profit from the crypto industry what they should be doing is to attract crypto industries in their country by way of attractive taxes and other discounts that would earn them foreign investments aside from that they should have some kind of subsidy for the crypto mining sector which will obviously help them attract the mining industry. So right now there is no guarantee that legalizing Bitcoin will pave as a financial solution they should at least try to promote it by supporting it.
190  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Beware!! Libra is not Bitcoin!! Here is the difference between Libra and Bitcoin on: December 07, 2020, 04:30:47 PM
Honestly I don't see Libra as some kind of threat against Bitcoin or for any other cryptocurrencies since several countries already expressed that Libra isn't welcome in their country, with that being said the use of Lobra will only be limited too the apps controlled by FB the problem here is how will people liquidate it if countries themselves won't accept it? There will be several issues regarding this one and I think Libra won't be widely accepted as a payment method.
191  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: World Map of Bitcoin Legality on: December 07, 2020, 03:59:44 PM
I have yet to see a accurate map with regards to Bitcoin's Legality in each country and it has continue until now. Just by looking at how they counted China as "restricted" made their map inaccurate already since I think by now we can say that they are already freely using cryptocurrencies and even mining it since they have the largest mining farms in the world. You can even say that they are match with the US when it comes to regulations regarding the use of cryptocurrencies so I don't know why articles such as this one label China as some kind of heavily regulated region.

This is pulled from the Curaçao eGaming licencing page on its website:

"Anti-Fraud
Don’t fall victim to online financial and identity fraud schemes by providers of services claiming to offer our Curaçao eGaming IP licensing and operators of websites claiming to be duly licensed by Curaçao eGaming

~snip

Yeah they did claim that they have a license from Caracao

All Members

We have Curacao license.

But the problem is a lot of people are asking where is it and the OP still didn't manage to provide any kind of proof that they are a registered crypto gambling casino under Curacao. I don't think they have one at all as there is really no good reason in hiding one especially what they are doing right now just arouses more suspicion that they are indeed a scam.
193  Other / Meta / Re: Merit Source - Plagiarist on: December 07, 2020, 09:50:54 AM
Maybe the quick solution for this is besides adding the sources of the article the OP should also take not that majority of the post is "translated in English" from a particular article. I double checked the article in forklog and I can say majority of the post content also the pictures use are from that article. So maybe to avoid future debate regarding with post taken from another article you should make it clear that it is a translation from one article, with that people who think it is plagiarism will just leave you alone.
194  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread on: December 07, 2020, 08:56:44 AM
Milan did yet another good job yesterday. Sampdoria was totally crushed by the attack of the milanese team. With or without Ibrahimovic they are very strong, but they have to be careful not to fall into the Ibra addiction, given the level of the teams in the ranking.

Uhmm and this is connected to the Champions League how? Both teams aren't even in the UCL, Sampdoria isn't competing internationally while Milan is playing in Europa League. Regular Italian matches should be posted in the Serie A discussion thread since only matches or teams that are in Champions League should be posted here. Nevertheless if AC Milan will continue to surprise people with their performance I think they will qualify for the next UCL in next season because they are really shocking everyone even their own fans.
195  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Mr. Mnuchin plans to regulate non-custodial wallets. on: December 06, 2020, 11:18:43 PM
Will the current regulations now get anything worst? Because IMO custodial wallets in the US are heavily regulated. Coinbase and other custodial wallets have been handing out "random" reports  for the IRS, they have also helped to track the Twitter hack that had happened easily, they have also freeze several accounts already when it comes to illicit activities. So really what more regulations they can do for the people to experience when they already have a lot of control with custodial wallets? Are they thinking about some kind of license for us to be able to use custodial wallets or something?
196  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: December 06, 2020, 10:16:17 PM
today there was a lot of confusion after the Roma game (yet another badly played game, even if the referee made mistakes).
the fans rightly criticized the team and Pellegrini replied on twitter "you are losers, we honor the shirt". these are things that in Rome do not forgive easily, the Roman fans are very hot

Can't blame Pellegrini on defending himself and his teammates but really when it comes to situations like this where the fans are criticizing their own teams while the team itself it answering back no one will really win and it will be really a mess, I won't be surprised if Pellegrini himself wants out of Roma when this situation worsens where the fans itself still will hate him. But for me as a fan we need to understand that players still have feelings and they also have limits like us, I don't know the whole story here but sometimes really fans spill out words that are way out of line for players to take in to.
197  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 2 ledgers but different seeds? on: December 06, 2020, 08:37:36 PM
What's the purpose of having 2 hardware wallets yet having the same seed? I don't see any use for this at all since having 1 hardware is already enough for you to store the same cryptocurrencies and if you will just be having problems with regards to you having accessibility of your crypto in different locations I think that won't really be a problem if you just bring your hardware wallet when you will do a transaction.
198  Economy / Gambling / Re: WELCOME TO ANONYMOUS CASINO – BITCOIN CASINO ONLINE on: December 06, 2020, 07:19:45 PM
I have looked for the possible place where I can find this website's gaming license from the bottom of their website to their about us section yet I failed to see any proof that they operate legally, they aren't like other gambling websites where you can see their gambling license right away. No proof of a gaming license yet they ask for KYC while claiming that they promote anonymity if their customers I think that is a lot of red flags already for a new gambling site.

Don't look for it because they don't have gaming license. As others already checked and re-checked their website, there's no curacao gaming license logo. So I hope the owner will clarify this matter once and for all. If they are silent about it, then they are guilty claiming to have license which they don't have. I don't think it is safe to play on this site. Just go to reputable casinos here.

I doubt that they forgot about a gaming license for verification purposes because the first thing crypto gamblers will be looking for is it especially on obvious parts or the usual parts where other reputable gambling sites are putting it so maybe they don't have one and they are just lying about there promotion about them being a anonymous gambling site which I doubt will pass to the Curacao gambling authority.

I have a strong feeling that you're pics in your "car inventory" are just photoshopped pics that aren't actually inside your garage. It's either that one or you are just using a cheap ass camera on taking pics on such expensive cars but for me I think it is the former because I have a strong feeling that you are using fake pics from cars that are not even owned by your so-called company.

Bro, there is watermark on photo  Grin They are not even photoshopped
You can easily find original website

You mean the autoplex watermark? Yeah I notice that as well but I am waiting for the OP to have some kind of explanation for it with all the doubts he has on his business I am sure that he will have a good reply for all the fraud he has on his website. Maybe he got embarrassed that is why he isn't replying right now.

There is a match going on between Lille and Monaco now. Both teams are doing very good in this season. Lille have an advantage because they are playing in their home stadium. When we look at the statistics, we see that both of them are playing on the same level. In my opinion, this match will end in a draw and the score will be 1-1.

Lille won the match in a good way Monaco dominated the match in a way that they hold the ball most of the time but Lille actually played good offense and countering that is why they build up with those 2 early goals. They created multiple opportunities while they are holding the ball less. Also I don't think there is such thing as a home advantage anymore since games are still played on empty seats teams really don't receive any kind of fan support while playing.
