Just found these two impressive profiles:   Tens of thousands of bets and still in a solid profit. Have they perfected the formula? |

This definitely isn't the world's first Bitcoin watch, Franck Muller released one over a year ago; https://www.franckmuller.com/news/vanguard-encrypto-limited-editionYou can also buy it with Bitcoin if you've got several thousand dollars laying around. It's got a USB stick containing a private key inside it. There's also a Bitcoin hardware wallet watch, the BITHD 2 (second generation now); https://bithd.com/BITHD-watch-2.htmlI wouldn't recommend purchasing it though, it's basically a reskinned generic smart watch. |

Most staking cryptocurrencies are also used by scammers. Anything with more than 90% of its circulating supply staked with no real use case for the token is almost certainly going to fail.
I'd also stay away from anything offering staking rewards of more than 7-8% per annum—even this is quite high. Something like 3-4% is good, but 1-2% is ideal.
Anything yielding more than 8% or so has much too high inflation to survive as a cryptocurrency, given that the most popular cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, etc all have gradually reducing inflation (halving events).

Looks like karma caught up with these two in the end, though it's not exactly clear whether or not their death was a direct result of their involvement in the OneCoin scam, if just a coincidence (I suspect the former).
I wouldn't be surprised if something similar happens to the guy who recently hacked all those Twitter accounts—after all, Justin Sun did put a $1m bounty on his head.
That's tough justice for ya.

What a time to be a middleweight. Jeff Horn must know that he's pretty much got no chance of getting any higher than his current position at top 10? I mean who else is he going to beat among the top 10 middleweights?
Canelo? Nope.
GGG? Nope.
Charlo? Nope
Eubank? Nope.
Derbyanchenko? Nope.
Andrade? Nope.
He's taken on a lower tanked opponent in Tim, so he should win. But even once he does, he's pretty much stuck hanging off the bottom of the top 10.
Never have been a fan of Horn.

Twitter called it a "social engineering attack", which makes me think that it was something simple like: the attacker called Twitter support, said, "Hey, it's <Elon Musk / Bill Gates / etc.>. Wouldn't you know it, I lost my 2FA device and my password. Could you help me?" And then the Twitter support person was like, "Sure, just give me your birthday for verification and I'll have this fixed right away, sorry for the inconvenience!" Support people want to help the person they're talking to as quickly as possible. They're usually the weakest link, not any technical flaw. You see this same sort of social engineering used in SIM swapping attacks, common against Bitcoiners. (There's a victim of SIM swapping on the front page of /r/Bitcoin right now.) There are some rumors circulating on twitter that the scam was just a cover for something else. For example, stealing direct messages from users, destroying twitter's reputation or something like that.
The DMs from all of those people might indeed be worth more than the $100k he got from the simple doubling scam. Highly unlikely that it was a social engineering attack. The fact that they breached dozens of accounts practically simultaneously indicates this is near impossible. There's no chance you could just call up and get some of these people's accounts with SE, even a moron Twitter support guy would notice some of these names. Looks like every single account breached had a blue checkmark, so it might be a flaw in the verification system—or maybe these were just priority targets. Surprised they didn't just pump some shitcoin then go long with 100x leverage. They could have easily caused a x50 pump on something with a smallish market cap. What a moron. If they did manage to access DMs, then it's game over for Twitter. That is a devastating breach. TwitterGate coming up? |

There's no chance that Lomachenko is going to fight Lopez without an audience unless both fighters are willing to take a serious purse cut. The gate is one of the biggest revenue streams for prize fighters like Loma, and although online streams will likely make up for it somewhat, I doubt it will cover the loss.
Or unless their managers or boxing promoters are willing to take the chance to also have their profit cut in half. Everyone wants to fight Loma simply because it's a money fight, not sure Teofimo will want it given that he's not going to rack up as much cash as he would if he just delays it a few months.
He is the cash cow right now in the lower weights division. I think Loma will probably fight some scrub whose willing to take a smaller payday just to get rekt in front of no audience, and then they'll build up the hype for the Lopez fight for Q4 2020 or Q1 2021.
Loma is going to make a mockery of Lopez, but he does still have a punchers chance.
We will see, but I agree that he will toy with this kid. Trainers and promoters usually take a 10% purse cut each MAX. I think even if they earned $0, the fighters still wouldn't be looking to fight when the purse cut is likely to be around 50% or more. As far as I'm aware live tickets bring in more than half of the total revenue. Lopez better hope that Lomachenko catches COVID19 and it fucks his lung capacity, that's about the only way he stands anything more than a puncher's chance. |

To sign up to my webinar please send me a message with the subject line ‘I love Nirvana’ just so I know you’ve read my post!  What's the point of adding this line? Surely you want as many people to sign up as possible right? Can't you just post the link to the webinar here so we can join without needing to RSVP? Or is there a reason you want to keep the numbers down? |

Wow, that's some biblical level knowledge just handed down to us by @OP, I never would have worked some of these out myself.
Hardworking is the activation energy of begginers to make quality post without obstruction.
A begginer most follow the full steps of the seniors like the following @suchmoon,@ loycev,@welsh, @loyce777, @ upgrade. And other members who are highly intellectual in order to propagate.
Learn by example? Jesus, that's pretty much revolutionary... OP must surely be some sort of savant or polymath to have deduced something so elementary, yet so powerful.
What is observation? Observation is the act of watching environment or a community you find yourself and study it carefully for a period of time.
Observing means watching?! How did I get through almost 30 years of existence without knowing this! Truly, your words have opened my eyes for the first time.
what is research? Rearch is a careful study of a subject or substance in order to make new discovery or information about your objective of researching.
RESEARCH HELPS TO EXPAND KNOWLEDGE?!?! SOMEBODY GET THIS MAN A NOBEL PRIZE, HE'S CRACKED THE GOD DAMNED CODE! /s

I'd also like an easy comparison of the house edge for different game types—taking into consideration any promotions that are currently running.
Beyond this, some of the other things I can think of are;
1. Are the founders of the casino known or anonymous?
2. Which licenses do they have (if any) and do they even need licenses in their jurisdiction.
3. How many players do they have?
4. Do they regularly offer festive promotions?

Congratulations to Thomas75 for winning the last round of the Ethereum lottery! Did you guys know you can win up to 650x your bet with Crypto.Games Plinko? That's like turning $10 into $6,500! Pretty sweet.  Definitely one of my favorite games, and a must-try for those that like the Plinko arcade games: |

I doubt their accounts were hacked directly.
Somebody either breached some third-party API posting service or the cell carrier these people used, hence resetting their 2FA methods.
Logically, if something was breached on Twitter's side, they would have just shut the whole site down rather than risk the fallout that's currently occuring.
Twitter shares have down 5% ATM despite doing well earlier today, so I guess investors aren't happy either way.
A lot of unconfirmed rumors that a twitter employee with access to the user management panel was hacked. But I find that hard to believe. I guess we’ll just have to wait for official announcements. Whatever it is, it's almost certainly isolated to Twitter. If it was the cell carrier that was hacked, then we would probably be seeing similar messages posted on Instagram and other popular social media channels. Also, the fact that only certain accounts seem to be affected, indicates that the attacker is limited in whose account they can post from. For example, Barack Obama (number 1 twitter user) was hacked. But Katy Perry and Justin Bieber (number 2 and 3) were not. This indicates there is some commonalities between breached accounts. I suspect it was actually a third party API or their email provider. |

That's the sign of a bad project—blaming everything else except for their lack of performance.
If you head into any trash project Telegram group, you'll find that they are completely full of excuses—bad market, coronavirus, not enough money, the failures of their partners etc.
You will rarely find a project actually taking responsibility for their failures, admitting that the challenge was harder than they thought of they simply weren't equipped to deal with it.
I'd be more inclined to believe a project that owns up to its failures, than offloads them to others. At least they have learned their limitations.

Nobody cares about your randon stablecoin, and I'm pretty sure nobody is going to use it either.
Do you know how few people care about the stability of silver vs gold or any other commodity? Practically zero.
Plus based on how you can't even craft an interesting ANN thread and your website looks like total crap, I can already guess that your project is dead on its feet.
Can you share some usage analytics with us? e.g. total number of holders, daily transacted volume etc?

Definitely a good idea, while I have seen several people rack in incredible profits from gambling, I've also seen a similar number of people get rekt.
From what I've seen, practically every single one of the ones that got rekt did so because they couldn't properly manage their money. They'd gamble too often, too much, and make risky bets to recoup their earlier losses—and then end up further in the red.
Simply creating an account-based limit isn't enough, considering it's trivially easy to just a second account.
There needs to be a direct service like this that holds the players accountable, and provides no means to circumvent the system. Needs to be somebody extremely trustworthy though, and I'm not sure anybody would actually pay for the service, which makes it a tough sell for most people.

Looks like a decent competitor to Coinbase card, Revolut and MCO's card.
There isn't any information on whether you need to register your personal details with the exchange to use the card (e.g. complete KYC/AML check).
If not, the this could be an absolutely killer tool for us that want to make the switch to pure crypto payments.
I've registered my interest, we'll see what they want in August.

If your funds were stolen, then you should be able to share the transaction ID for the tx which saw your Bitcoin moved.
If not, then it could be possible that the latest version of the wallet simply updated to SegWit and lost legacy support, or that you just created a new seed.
Please post the transaction ID for the transfer here and we'll see if we can help, if you can't provide this because there isn't one, then your funds are likely still safe.

A nice idea, but why would anyone want to entrust their tokens to a third-party platform rather than do the staking themselves?
The idea is that they can stake their assets while gambling at the same time, providing additional value players. Plenty of people keep large sums in their casino wallets, might as well give them a way to turn a guaranteed profit on it. Anything that can add value to the players should be implemented, especially when there are plenty of third-party solutions that would make this relatively easy to integrate. |
