I agree with that perception but it's like you build a pond for frogs then target and kill them, to me it doesn't make sense to build a section for a particular thing if you are not even going to let them announce themselves.
The reason Investor Based Games board was created was that most of the Ponzi related things were posted in gambling section which was irritating and most of the reputed members during that period were running these shady scams especially forum donators and many reputed members during that period used to vouch for these scams claiming that they are getting money even though those were shitty scams.

Many things that were normal during those time period are frowned upon now and many users changed their opinions and views in multiple things and some were even involved in those practices are now advocating against those shady things which is good.

We should not allow Ponzi and anyone promoting those should be warned and tagged.

I'm not sure, Conor can still beat the best of them. I think in the recent Poirer fight he actually caught him a couple of nicely, and gave him a buzz. The thing is everyone knows if you weather the storm Conor is going to be gassed. He's talked about working on his fitness, but I haven't seen any massive improvements in that regard.
This is exactly what i was telling, in the Featherweight division he was able to sleep champions and other fighters with a single punch and the upper weight division fighters are not going out like Conor McGreogor or his fans are expecting and so is the reason he is loosing fights as he is not able to maintain the momentum forward.


If he stays in 155 or moves up like he has done, I think we will see him pick up a few wins here, and there, but nothing like the earlier domination simply because hes a risky type fighter, and the top guys know how to keep out of danger with him. At least to some extent.
I wont debate about Conor McGregor winning fights if he is getting the same treatment now. He was able to pick favorable match up during his rise and the UFC played along with it supporting him full handed and now they are not getting the same love and if he fights lesser competition he will win easily.

The results do make sense though I would swap DC with CSK in the finals and RCB would end up defeating CSK to win their 1st IPL trophy. Surprising part is that MI would fail to qualify for the playoffs.
The RCB fans needs to simulate the entire tournament for them to win the tournament  Cheesy, it is a sad situation for them as they never won the trophy despite having some of the best T20 players in their team and they started well in this tournament but who knows whether that form will continue till the final stages of the tournament.
I will be surprised if they reach the finals  Cheesy.
2164  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Have you heard about another meme crypto "StopElon"?? on: May 21, 2021, 07:43:49 PM
We all are aware about Musk influence on crypto market these days and he is moving the market with his tweets messing up the prices of every coin.But to counter with this situation a social community has came up with another Cryptocurrency named "StopElon".

The main objective behind this coin is stop Elon from ruining crypto market and downfall of his company Tesla.
It is funny that there are more coins coming out with Elon as the main character, i have heard about ElonDoge, Dogelon Mars and ElonGate because they are listed in CMC but StopElon is new  Cheesy.
 
I do support anyone who started this simply because he needs to stop his mockery of the cryptocurrency market even though i am aware that Elon does not even care about any of these and it is just a fuel to simply troll the market further.
2165  Economy / Speculation / Re: What Effects Did the Tether Reserves Breakdown Have on Bitcoin and The Market? on: May 21, 2021, 06:01:45 PM
Is Tether cancer we have to get rid of for bitcoin and the crypto market to have a prosperous future?
How big of an impact do you think this Tether disclosure had on the recent downtrend of bitcoin and the whole market?
Finally the magic money Tether showed what they are using as reserve and printing unlimited amount of Tether flooding the market whenever the market rallies and they were able to do that using Commercial Paper as majority reserve currency which means unsecured promissory note and what i would like to know is whether any of these are audited.

For everyone who are hearing about these unsecured promissory note for securing money, everyone needs to checkout Harshad Mehta scam where he was able to manipulate the stock market for billions of dollars using almost the same method using unsecured promissory note and the banks were happy to pass the credit without much thinking. I would advice everyone to stay away from it because you cannot predict when it will burst and it will wipe out billions from the market.

I really hope so. Honestly, I used to be a Mcgregor fan, and having a firing on all cylinders Conor brings much more depth to an already stacked division. Although, his antics recently have really bored me, and I just have got sick, and tired of him talking like he's the dog bollocks, when hes only won a fight against an aging Cerone in the last, what 3/4 years?  
I was never a Conor McGregor fan and even though i was watching his rise from the start i was skeptical about his ability to become the champion because José Aldo was that dominant until that left hand landed and i lost a huge amount of money and the very next fight i placed a bet on Conor McGregor in his very next fight against Nate Diaz thinking about recovering my loss and just two fights busted over 20BTC in multiple gambling sites during that period and hence i will never forget him Grin. The difference is that if he needs to be that dominant he needs to go down to the Featherweight division where he was undefeated and dominated everyone, upper weight division i do not see him having any opportunity to become the champion again.

Poirier does him again, and I see him just calling it a day in terms of challenging for the title. His heart hasn't been in it in a long while. I think he'll only do big fights for money, and probably have a few more boxing matches.
This is not about the heart of a champion. He needs to go down to featherweight division if he wants to win again. He dominated that division and he was confident that he could win in upper weight divisions but he was able to dominate Eddie Alvarez but when he started facing tough competition in that division his weakness was exposed.
2167  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Arbitration judge orders Fury vs Wilder 3rd fight on: May 20, 2021, 07:33:59 PM
It does look like an utter mess, but all this controversy just generates more money for the three of them in future. Joshua called Tyson a fraud today because it looks like they'll end up paying $20 million in order for Wilder to step aside, it could be one of the easiest paychecks in history! Saudi Arabia is already reported to be paying $100 million between both of them for hosting the fight, so it looks like it will either be cancelled (unlikely) or the pay off will be coming. Considering it is the most belts ever up for contest in one fight - making it one of the biggest fights in history, it looks like Wilder will get his way.
There is a timeline set for the trilogy by the arbitrator arbitrator Tyson Fury should face Deontay Wilder by September 15th and the fight between Fury and Joshua is not official yet and the reported date was August 14 and considering that there is no way Tyson Fury can have this fight and turn around and find Wilder within a month.

Either they have to pay the settlement amount or he needs to fight Wilder unless they find other solutions.

I'm afraid of the way all the crypto is reducing in price, now that i join digital cryptocurrency fully with my family and sale some of my properties to invest into crypto, it's when Elon musk will bring scandal into cryptocurrency.
The entire cryptocurrency market was rallying for months and there was a correction last time and even though i thought we would have a much bigger correction the market was able to recover. You have risked a lot and you should not invest your entire wealth in any form of investment as the risks are really high and if you cannot profit with the rally we had in the past few months i cannot understand what will  Tongue.

All they need to do now is to transport the players safely and make sure that they stick to the security protocols in the UAE bio-bubble. Am pretty sure IPL 2021 will resume after a couple of months though I am not sure about the location.
The BCCI was able to conduct the IPL successfully in the UAE bio bubble last year and we never had any issue and this year when India had its worst second wave of the pandemic the BCCI was confident that they can carry on with the tournament in India itself and they have learned their lessons the hard way, it is better for them to shift the tournament to UAE as nothing will change in the next two months as well.

I already said you delete all posts and topics so that nothing will remain.

Bitcoin has become a ponzi scheme and a scam anyway, I remember when it used to represent anonymity and freedom.
A few posts deleted and all of a sudden BTCitcoin became a ponzi and a scam  Cheesy.
BTC still represents freedom and anonymity if you know how to use them.

Do you think malevolent (male+volent) means Male Armor to come to that conclusion in your subject Tongue.

^  Chandler had him in the first round and he was pounding on Oliveira’s head but survived to see the second round.  I really thought he was wining until he got caught.  Lol.  And Chandler never came across as ‘cocky’.  At least not for me.  He’s a well spoken guy and he would’ve made a good champ imo.  A kind of person who you’d like represent the sport.
It was a really great fight, after watching the first round i thought Michael Chandler would win the belt as i thought the referee would stop the fight and some of the judges even scored the round 10- 8 but the second round was completely opposite as Charles Oliveira started attacking and he was able to land a good punch and then follow up with that until the referee stopped the fight and it is a fitting career for Charles Oliveira as he is fighting in the UFC for 10 years.

I think the Ranji Trophy was originally organized to find new talented players in India. From here, talented players are given a chance in the IPL and then the players get a chance to prepare themselves more for the national team. The Ranji Trophy is very important for India.
In the past the players were selected from their performance in the domestic circuit especially Ranji Trophy but with the introduction of IPL every team have members who scout for young talents and these scouting team will watch even club cricket to identify young talents and then pick them to help the main team as net bowlers and then pick them in the team which they are fully prepared and the IPL is really helping groom the young talents.

^^^ that is the issue exactly, if i remember correctly Dan Hardy is having some sort of heart condition and he never took any treatment for it.

Arjan Bhullar won the OneFC Heavyweight belt from Brandon Vera and he became the first Indian origin fighter to win any major MMA belt and hopefully we will see more champions from India and i was expecting Ritu Phogat to be the next champion but she lost her last fight by split decision and it will be small hurdle and hopefully come back stronger and dominate her opponents.

How about you? Do you see yourself quitting your day job after this current bullrun? I hope you make enough to start with a business of your own.
It depends upon the stress level and how much you are enjoying your job that you make decisions like these. In my position i might have quite my job and start my own company because that is what i am doing right now and anyone invested anything in the cryptocurrency market in the past one year could easily make a huge profit and start something of their own and because of these pandemic situation i started a decent medium scale farm basically for my own consumption Grin.
2175  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Two brothers who became millionaires with cryptocurrency on: May 15, 2021, 10:13:47 PM
On the morning of April 17, two brothers in Westchester, New York, woke up and realized that they had become millionaires overnight, thanks to an incredible bet on cryptocurrency, which was originally made as a joke.
They are really lucky and i will not even go near those meme tokens thinking i could make a millions dollars let alone invest a dime but this time everyone who took the risk in all the shit coin made a fortune  Grin,  apart from Doge even i started following these meme coins recently and the coin that made them the fortune is Shiba Inu (SHIB) and hopefully they could cash out their millions and never plan on holding for a long time as these shit coins will dump at any time.

I thought they enabled the services globally, US citizens can enjoy the service at the moment and these kind of adoption would be great if these big companies allows these services on a global basis. It is good to see more companies getting involved in BTCitcoin and i think the adoption by PayPal and MasterCard might have triggered the rest of the financial service companies to seriously think about BTCitcoin adoption.
2177  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: I see no difference between Elon Musk and McAfee on: May 15, 2021, 07:05:48 PM
The only difference between Mcafee and Elon is the fact that one of them is super rich and the other one is rich, plus one of them is super famous and other one is... only known by certain people who are interested in the market he is in. So long story short they have no difference in character, they are basically the same person, I wouldn't be able to pin point any difference in character if I had a gun pointed at my head, it is impossible to make that kind of difference between the two.
There is a major difference between Elon Musk and McAfee, Elon Musk is not a scammer while McAfee is a scammer who promotes scam coins and lure people into investing in those scams and i can pin point many scam projects McAfee promoted and hence you cannot compare them in that aspect.
What Elon Musk is doing is not that great either with his tweets but he never scammed anyone.
2178  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Xapo Wallet on: May 15, 2021, 12:08:14 PM
I don't remember the no fee option though, I think it was between Xapo wallets if I remember correctly.
This is correct. Zero fee transactions only apply for internal transfers between Xapo wallets. If am not wrong, they used to charge a miners fee when withdrawing to an external wallet depending on the priority level you choose.
I stopped using their services since the date they updated their privacy policy and introduced the kyc requirement besides blocking some countries.
I might be wrong but I think there aren't many users who are still interested in their services.
Xapo and coinbase never charged transaction fees until the network started to congest and if I remember correctly coinbase started charging withdrawal fees initially and then Xapo followed and coinbase changed their business model and so does xapo but one is successful in their transition while Xapo is still struggling with regulatory hurdles even though they started providing debit cards for limited countries.
2179  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Crypto-Casinos and KYC on: May 15, 2021, 06:01:13 AM
I would stay away from casino which enforces mandatory KYC especially if it is a new platform, but i do not mind providing my identity in trusted casino and infact i have verified my identity in sportsbet which they enforced to make a withdrawal after using them for many years because of network congestion one of my transactions took days to get through and the site considered that as a failed transaction and it took a few days to sort and that is when they asked to verify.
During that period i did verify my identity in stake as well even though they did not enforce.

They do it just because they can, to boost their stupid egos.
May be his ego is making him to tweet. But as you mentioned I doubt whether he is bothered if anyone follows him or not.

However, even if we're having a loss right now, more people are stronger than a few dumb billionaires and I'm sure BTC will come more powerful than before.
The market is over $50k and you think that it is not enough. It is good too see corrections once in a while and no one can manipulate the market for a much longer time.

The history won't let Mr. Snake Musk escape with zero consequences.
what do you think will be the consequences, zero as he never leaked any insider information and he was doing these sort of market influencing tweets for the past few years and now he is more tweeting about cryptocurrency market and that is the only difference.
