I thought more members of the forum would have made some donations.

Obviously there is no obligation to do so but $5's here and $10's there is not
much but it can accumulate to something substantial potentially.

Ok I'll give you 6 from 6 - nice one!

Yea The raiders did the job and checking the ladder now they are in 8th spot, well done to them.

I had the Cowboys backed to beat the Rabbitohs, it was close. I only did 2 bets this weekend
so I'm 1 from 2.

FINALS UP NEXT


I thought there was only 24 rounds in the Telstra Premiership but realise now there
are 25, starting tomorrow.

I find it hard to do some picks this round, 5 plays 4, 6 plays 7 and 3 plays 1, there are not so
many value bets either, maybe the Raiders to win @ 1.21?

Rugby Union Rugby Championship

Can Argentina backup their win last week of New Zealand? the punters still dont think
so but still Argentina with better odds this week at 6.2, New Zealand 1.1 - I might spend some
of my winnings from last week on The Pumas!

Australia close favourites to do the business again against the Springbok's.

Thank you doblezero for running this raffle - details sent!

Really difficult to find value in this early rounds. I checked the markets today and nothing looks amazing.

Maybe Korda to win against Paul and make it 4. win in 4 matches? Odds are good.

Wolf should win quite easy against Tabilo, I am on -1.5 set handicaps here.

Kyrgios should win 3:0 but I said to myself that I am never placing a bet on this particular @#@#!& So skipping it

Yes I agree, its hard to find value, my nice bet on Baez yesterday got cancelled when
he pulled out, I had a +8.5 handicap on him @2.13 and he was down 2 sets 6-4, 6-4 and
was looking like delivering my bet.



Just tuned into the Murray v Nava match and Murray is down 1 set already, Murrays odds
are 1.32 now, Nava's 3.4, I feel like doing something but dont know what ...

Very bold move by Die_empty and quite amazing that they got to meet face to face with
the government representative and kudos to that representative to make the meeting
happen. There must be an appetite among some people in government to review the central
bank bill.

It will be quite something if it gets reviewed and then overturned in favour of allowing
people the choice of getting involved with Bitcoin.

Best of luck to Die_empty

Tsitsipas loses his match against Galan in 4 sets. Lost the first set 6-0! What's going on with Tsitsipas? he was one of the favs to win the tournament and he goes down to world no. 94 in the opening round. Halep lost in the opening round as well. Quite a few upsets on Day 1.

Wow, I really expected wins by both Tsitsipas and Halep, Tsitsipas reaching the final of Cincinnati,
we would have expected the form to continue,  Same with Halep, winning the Canadian Open this
month we would have expected at the very least a first round win.

Luckily I didnt bet on them
At times matches go completely against the expectation. Tsitsipas is on a winning track and everyone believed he would make good progress. Rather than any other sports, it is good to make bets against the odds suggested by the gambling houses. There is more chance of making a win, because many match results will have similar outcomes in the upcoming days.

@romero121 I kinda agree to your statement, because in the past we knew that Federer would win, then came Nadal and Djokovic era where they would win most of their matches and thus wagering on Tennis matches were easy to do, however the current generation is very unpredictable and wagering small amounts against them is not a bad suggestion.

However people should not wager big on unknown player’s to cause upsets, and they should apply the basic rule i.e. to study both the opponent and see if the underdog has any potential of causing an upset like we witnessed in Tsitsipas match.

I agree somewhat but its very difficult to forsee these upsets although I think it happened
before to me with Sinner and probably Tsitsipas last year at some stage and I learned my
lesson then!



Alcaraz plays today against Baez and obviously its not worth betting on Alcaraz as the odds
are so low, I can take Baez +8.5 which is appealing @2.13, Alcaraz can have lull's in matches so
it might be worth a bet.

Very nice to see images of him again.

He was such an influence in the cryptography space and obviously had an influence
on Satoshi's work to create Bitcoin before launch while he was a 'member' of the cypherpunks.

What a legend

This Grand Slam marks the end of an era for one of the biggest stars in Tennis, Serena Williams
is playing her last tournament and is on court in a couple of hours against Danka Kovinic.

Its sad in a way but nothing lasts forever except her legacy, soon it will be turn of Nadal, Murray,
Djokovic and officially Federer.

I wonder how far Serena will be able to get. If she manages to survive a couple of rounds and can play her last match against one of the new top young players, it would be a nice goodbye. It would be a bit sad to see her loose against a "nobody".

Well she won that match anyway in 2 sets 6-3, 6-3 as expected probably.

Tsitsipas loses his match against Galan in 4 sets. Lost the first set 6-0! What's going on with Tsitsipas? he was one of the favs to win the tournament and he goes down to world no. 94 in the opening round. Halep lost in the opening round as well. Quite a few upsets on Day 1.

Thanks guys. Be on the look out for lealana video this week. I consider this one the most important video to date. My number one goal is to get the trust of the forum that im accurately representing what we do. I wont rest till all coins and collectables are represented and every house has a real world bitcoin in the safe. Watch out for your shout outs coming

Dane, thank you for the shout out in the Cardsniths Currency Review episode,
that was a bit of a surprise and definitely pit a smile on my face.  

So I guess everyone will be getting a shout out but there are way more makers worthy
of a spot ahead of me. Thank you again.

I wasnt aware that this was discussed before on the forum!

Anyway, yes I would be in favour of a child board of the Goods board just like the
Collectibles Child board. The two boards would be interlinked, many physical
items are loaded with NFT's.

@sweeteye created a thread recently about this topic in the Collectibles board >
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5411201.msg60825838#msg60825838

Hey all,

Would love your opinion on this.
I'm spending an increasing amount of time in the counterparty/XCP (bitcoin blockchain) collectible space and while there are channels and web marketplaces for artist's to sell their physical work, I think that this may also be a place given some of our past sales history and our collective community proclivity.

Several of the XCP artists I'm in touch with may be interested in listing their physical work here - an original painting, drawing or rendering of their NFT, or of other artists work that they've been gifted, bought or traded for - all XCP/BTC project based, and in my estimation, all collectible.

As my first love (and collection) is art, I'm compelled to support some of these artists here if there's a market and interest from our community.

Would love opinions and am open to suggestions as well.

Thanks.

sweeteye

From the thread its clear that there is a massive community of makers and collectors
of NFT's out there and while the space may be in decline I would guess its finding its realistic level
while speculation levels out and
the real collectors stay.

Just my 2 sats

Whatever about filing legal claims against individuals like Hodlonaut, taking on Coinbase
and Kraken is a real game changer IMO.

We all hope Hodlonaut is able to wound CSW but I would imagine its the might of Coinbase
which could end CSW's persistent claims?

He really has a neck like a jockeys ar$e, but I would say he has a false sense of success. Hopefully
Hodlonaut can cause the first wound and Coinbase finish the job and Kraken to bury it.

Yes I think so too. Maybe the top 6 players could eventually be quite close and
players performing better on one surface more than others, it will just remain to be seen.

In terms of a sport being dominated by a very minority group of players I can give
the example in my own case of Forumla 1 and Michael Schumacher, it was great at
the start but a few seasons in and he is winning everything I switched off
and lost interest, there was no competition.
You can't really compare F1 with tennis. That Schumacher titles were influenced big time by the best car he drove and team strategy where he was first driver. Tennis is just about player himself and that is why mental component is so important, you are alone on the pitch and have nobody to cover for you if you have bad day. That is where Djoković and Nadal made their success, they are just so consistent and will find ways to win even when it isn't their best day.


Yes, I get it but I was only commenting from a spectators point of view and my experience
of watching pretty much the same result unfolding race after race, as a neutral I lost
interest.

A bigger number of tennis players with similar capabilities and are at the top of the game,
each competing for wins is far more interesting than 3!

Tomorrow Murray will be facing the Argentinian player Cerundolo, and the odds for Murray to win are pretty good, from what I have noticed, Cerundolo plays better on clay and hard court is not one of his expertise, so I think the odds of Murray to win are pretty good, 1.66 is not something  I would miss to put on a parlay.
Indeed, good odds on Murray. Cerundolo is really good on clay and keep the rally going on hard court. It will come down to match fitness, in the end. Is Murray fit enough to last potentially 5 sets? if the answer is yes, then I think he's got the quality to get past Cerundolo.

I agree that Cerundolo is a decent player but Murray's skill levels are still fairly sharp and
they have made the difference in matches for him when his fitness levels have started
to wane. There are good odds on him still alright.

congratulations for the idea and for the final result!
I also like the collection behind you, really a great example for anyone starting out in this world.
In any collector's niche YT views are just small number but your video could reach a bigger audience. It's just matter of time but I think more and more collectors will join this field.

I would like to tell you this topic [Interviews] with crypto Collectors / Artists
 where I "made" some interviews with collectors and creators, feel free to take inspiration Wink and of course to take part and release your INTERVIEW Tongue

Yes interesting art pieces behind you dane, and looks like there are more out of shot, it
might be an idea to swap them about from episode to episode, although you have
probably started already ...

Anyway this is great, great start, great idea and very interesting. it means for us who
are not well educated in the top collectibles we dont have to thrawl through threads and
websites looking for info, YOU ARE GOING TO DO IT FOR US - nice!

Interesting Timelord, even last year I didnt look into the Womens NRL and will check out
some highlights over the week.

The results look like the games will be closer affairs than the mens.

Rollbit dont have the games listed (yet perhaps)

But

They do have the Womens Rugby League World Cup outrights listed which led
me to check that out. It starts in October!!
