2221  Economy / Economics / Re: Why we need bitcoin... on: December 26, 2021, 01:58:50 PM
Nice topic, though the US assured that they'll be able to pay their debt but it's always better for us to get ready if they will default as we already know what would happen to USD. Having bitcoin in our wallet is truly a hedge for an inflation and since it's not controlled by any government, people will have a liberty to invest and consider bitcoin as a hedge which would result to increase its value due to that particular demand.

printing more is the way to go to pay the debts and the USD has so much leverage for that because it's the reserve. the more they print the lesser the debts will be but it's the people that will suffer from the inflation due to, however.

this is why a country like El Salvador will probably be the one that has the advantage in the coming years. or will we ever see another currency because a country like Myanmar shifted to Yuan (Renminbi) recently?
2222  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Thurman vs Barrios - Feb 5 on: December 26, 2021, 01:22:46 PM
I believe that Mario Barrios has a good chance to win this fight since Keith Thurman has not been in the ring for over two and a half years. That time might have taken its toll on his physical condition. Mario Barrios also has a height and arm length advantage, which might help him. It will be interesting to see this fight.

But the thing is that Barrios is the one going up in weight and we don't know if he can handle a full 147 lbs boxers. He was knockout by a midget (Tank Davis) at 140 lbs. What more of a legitimate welterweight with powers in both hands? So I doubt that he can pull an upset just because Thurman has not been in the ring for two years.

losing against Davis i think is understandable since that beast is really good, he knows he can't beat those boys. some say he is following Floyd's steps. but Barrios going up to welterweight is his best option because the guys in the welterweight have already aged including Crawford. it's his time to shine in that division. he only loses once and that's with Davis, he can box, and combined with the right time in moving up, glory days will be restored.
2223  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who’s who in the gambling subforum? on: December 26, 2021, 06:03:07 AM
I want to know who are the experts in the gambling subforum. Many of my posts are made in the threads for NFL, UFC and Boxing.
What is the point of collecting such information? Are you into kind of any survey (still not sure how it could help in any means)? (I am sorry if you have already answered for such question; I could not find the reason for this topic in OP itself hence asking).

In my wild guessing, are you going to conduct any competition or similar to anything which are based on different sport events and going to appoint those experts in sport-wise for managing/monitoring or for any type of governing?

I have already mentioned in one of my replies that the point of this collection is for community building in the gambling subforum and for helpful information sharing for sports and bets. If you have a suggestion for someone who is helpful in the gambling subforum, please share the bitcointalk username.

Also, competition for what? If you know the sport more closely, you can already determine if the person is a real follower of the sport or someone who is only in the gambling subforum because their campaigns told them to make gambling posts.

each of them has thier own expertise. if one person only bet on boxing, he would find the prediction of @Boafeng and @bisdak to be great. tips from them would be appreciated. i followed thier tips because my analysis also agreed to what they are saying.

the thread that i follow the most is tokeweed's UFC. anyone who sees the advice of users in the thread agrees to thier picks then all of us win, if the UFC fighter loses, we all lose.  Grin

i don't get why you deposit when in fact the reason you want self-exclusion is for you not to spend. yet you deposited an amount to play and lose. the moment you saw that you have deposited and saw that the amount was credited means the transaction went on. that's not a problem since the wallet doesn't know whether you are excluded.

blaming them for that and you losing that amount is not thier fault. you should have avoided visiting stake instead.

high-end VR Sex toys and a headset are a must to experience climax i love it already. i can't imagine someone really inserting his dick into the sex device and then starts using the headset. it does feel like there will be more ransom emails asking for BTC or else people will see how your face looks like in your climax videos after uploaded.
i always wanted to experience orgasm all the time, i prefer to do it with a real partner. not in the metaverse.

In this case, I found out, what is the difference between VR and metaverse if the metaverse is like VR in general ?  Huh
I don't really understand about this metaverse, but from the answer above, as well as the header that the OP put forward, my question arises as I stated above.

you are already in the metaverse. we are just forum board users this time but if they added features like face, hair, and so on combined with real-time. kinda like the avatar movie but on space only.  metaverse currencies however are just is exactly what money is. the value of real money is just imagined value anyway. this time the money only exists there in the metaverse.
2226  Economy / Gambling / Re: VR online casinos? on: December 25, 2021, 04:16:06 PM

Did some research and found PokerStars offering VR poker which might be the only other alternative in this case. There is very little demand currently for VR gambling since it's a niche and very few people would want to purchase a VR headset just for the sake of gambling.

However, I don't see why you are trying to find another VR headset that is Oculus Quest 2 goggles has the highest resolution among others, it's 1,832 by 1,920 (per eye) compared to Playstation4 and steamVR.
You misunderstood him. He meant to say that slotsmillion supports Oculus rift, but not quest 2 which is his headset.

not surprising why there are few demands for VR gambling. if it needs an expensive headset, then it's for those who can afford it. i wonder if there really are players out there and a bitcoin VR casino where possibilities are almost real, we could be wrestling there with the chat support guys if they don't allow instant withdrawal or if they caught us counting cards.  Grin

So after Barrios gets KO by Tank Davis, he decided to go up to the welterweight where in there's a lot of big puncher? The only reason I can think of is that he really is too big for 140 lbs and there's no way he can make that weight in his next fight.

For Thurman, it's been a long layoff away from boxing, but yes, probably this is a cherry pick fight for his comeback. Because admit it or not, Barrios can't take his punches so Thurman has all the advantages in this fight.

it could be an easy fight for Thurman he is already confident in such weight class even the long beauty rest. maybe moving to welterweight can be a good opportunity for Barrios too, he is still younger than those top boxers in this division such as Ugas and Spence, maybe he can beat these guys too aiming for Crawford.

beating the guys who are not in thier prime is a good strategy. Spence is just 30 though.
2228  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: December 25, 2021, 03:05:02 PM

though it's too much hype for Chimaev', he really is skillful one that can be compared to Khabib.

It's the fairest to us, but we can't really know the fine print in the championship contracts. Maybe there are some checks in place to make that impossible to happen due to whatever reasons. Anyway, I doubt things will change because this thing will not happen all that much and they won't bother to change anything. Not the most flexible company out there.

it feels wrong to really give the belt to Aljo considering how bad the acting is. but because the disqualification of yan makes him the winner, it will be considered a win which means the belt at stake will be given to him. he knows to himself he didn't win that belt the right way. it deserves a rematch.
2229  Local / Pilipinas / Re: Ang crypto after ng isang super typhoon. on: December 25, 2021, 02:41:21 PM
Isa ako sa mga survivor ng bagyong Odette at ang masasabi ko lang is walang kwenta ang crypto after mawala ang kuryente at signal sa lugar namin. Fiat padin talaga ang sakalam in terms of convenience sa bawat apektadong lugar.

I think yan lang namn ang downside sa pagamit ng crypto maliban sa mataas ang fees. Kayo, ano sa tingin nyo advantage at disadvantage ng crypto lalo na sa panahon ng krisis?

I don't think fiat din ang pinaka importante sa panahon ng krisis. I am from Mindanao too and I am close to where Odette has made a huge devastation. Alam mo ano ang pinaka importante sa lahat? Yes, hindi crypto, at hindi rin pera or fiat money kundi tubig at pagkain na hindi maaring bilhin ng pera kasi yung mga nag titinda ay kinakailangan din yung pagkain at tubig na tinitinda nila.
When we're talking about calamities, or let's say a post apocalyptic scenario, walang magagawa ang pera or any currency in terms of survival.

Let's say isa yan sa disadvantage ng crypto, pero hindi naman talaga ginagamit ang Cryptocurrency as means to provide us our daily needs kasi hindi widely accepted ang crypto sa bansa natin. Pero it is still the most profitable investment in the long term. So, bakit mo naman gagamitin ang crypto asset mo dahil affected ka sa bagyo?

kita ko rin to sa mga taga surigao. hindi ka mabubuhay kung walang tubig, pagkain at kuryente kaya dagsaan sila sa butuan ilang araw matapos and bagyo. kaya kung mangyayari man na talagang magkakagera man or may sakuna gaya ng lindol at bagyo. mas mabuti meron tubig at pagkain dahil kung meron ka mang pera pero walang mapagbilhan ay bale wala rin. mabuti na lang daw maraming mga ilog sa mindanao na malinis ang tubig. ang pinoproblema ng iba ay ung mosquito net blanket para sa pagtulog.

kita ngayon ang disadvantage kung crypto lahat ng assets mo.

whoever holds that 300+ BTC wallet really know how to hold for that long. if its satoshi, how do we know?

all there is to know is that is an old wallet which during that time, it wasn't even considered a whale, it's only considered a whale now because the value is more than $16M. maybe one day 0.001BTC will also be considered a whale but it wouldn't be satoshi. what we know is that he got a billion.

<...>

this reminds me of the old saying: "do you want to be right or do you want to make money?"
different ways to approach the world
maybe its better to approach betting as a job than as a pure entertainment activity if you want to win on the long run

It depends, I mean some of rich people would never consider betting as a job, it is just pure entertainment on them, however for those unfortunate people, they always consider betting as a job no matter how hard is it for them in winning. Your bets will never be always be right based on the information you've gathered, sometimes it is being bended by something that change everything, a win became a loss and a loss became a win, if you know what I mean.

it's upsetting when the underdog win which you hopefully will not because most of the time the analysis is that a champion will always be the favorite and the odds speaks for it. if you are going to be banking on the underdog, it could just mean that you are really a fan of that MMA fighter which could be entertainment for you. but for a broke man who wants to win big but has small capital, he meant money and might just bet his $50 to win 3x rooting for the underdog.



2232  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who’s who in the gambling subforum? on: December 24, 2021, 06:15:04 AM
Despite my admiration for some members, I have never followed anyone's hunches, I like to place my own bets without influence from others, just with my own analysis.

Agree, you don't have to follow them, just take their speculations as your reference as it is your money that you gamble but in the end, you can admire those speculators for sharing their ideas/speculations of the game and you can't notice that you already followed them.

@bbc.reporter, thanks for the mention, I never thought that someone in this forum would notice what I have speculated in boxing or in the NBA, the games which I love the most.

Following them without making an effort is a bad idea, it will not make you grow and improve as a sports bettor, it's called blindly following where your journey might stop whenever they stopped. For me, it doesn't help at all as sometimes if the person that you followed lose their pick, you might also end up blaming him for your loss.

they are giving ideas and tips on betting, it's not that we follow those popular guys in the gambling section. they are however good at what they are doing and picking which team has the higher chance of winning.

sometimes there is no schedule of fights in the sports that i follow but because i wanted to make some profit, i just pick the bets they chose because more than likely they know the sports than i do.
2233  Other / Meta / Re: Bitcointalk Youtube channel - what would you like to see? on: December 24, 2021, 05:26:39 AM
OMG, I don't usually quote images but I have to comment on this one.  Not only is it true, but the montage of thumbnails perfectly encapsulates what Youtube has become--and as I think I've mentioned in a previous post, you can find idiotic clickbait-y thumbnails like that for videos on a vast array of topics.  Youtube started as a cool, homegrown video site....and now everyone has paid sponsors and/or is paid by Youtube, and everyone is following their ever-changing and always stricter rules on the type of content that can be uploaded.  It's turned into a site where the videos are the equivalent of typing in all caps, with everyone screaming for clicks and attention.

Oh, and by the way don't forget to smash that like button and hit subscribe if you want more content like this.  It really helps out the channel....blah fucking blah blah.

I wanted info on two things today: DeFi projects and the state of ETH 2.0.  I searched Youtube and found results that look like those thumbs above and only one useful video on the latter.  This sort of makes me wonder if bitcointalk's Youtube channel is going to conform to the current standard of carbon copy videos or, if it doesn't, how in the world is it going to attract attention on a site where the worst content is the most heavily promoted.

I suppose if we ever see another video, we'll find out.

there is just no beating them today for they are like the army of memes trying to get many views for the sponsors who paid them. things change over time and while it was more decent in the past, today there is no educational value but just pure entertainment. i remember an episode of max keiser and stacy laughing at these influencers on youtube who opens thier mouth widely.

but i suppose the new generations can always look up to search andreas antonop.  they learn blockchain in school too. that's why the new traders today concentrate more on crypto through these shills on youtube. never in their lives tried gold or silver before.

if this is about you having a video jerking in front of a phone then just ignore it. there had been lots of people receiving those emails they may have even cc on it or sent to many.

why you can't report it to bitcoin? not sure what you mean by that but there is no one to report to. but tell you when you send some BTC to his wallet, you will probably receive back a meme image of the gigolo of the family guy.
2235  Economy / Gambling / Re: Casino context on: December 23, 2021, 05:50:35 PM
Could you explain the context of the context your talking about in context?

this is a legitimate question actually.

most of the time the context that will catch the attention on the casino pages are not mouthwatering though. most of it are something that will make gamblers suspicious especially the TOS. bonuses or deposit bonuses can be considered mouthwatering but this is if the casino is already trusted.
