I think the hiring process for traditional casinos is prettt intense to make sure that they get trustworthy and competent help. With online casinos they probably mostly look for people who are available and work cheap, as they don’t have to trust them as much as physical casino employees, so it’s likely that they aren’t hiring the best help money can find.

I can’t say I see a lot of correlation between money and romance. Usually it seems like the opposite. Men with a ton of money are typically obsessed with their work or investments and don’t show women the proper attention, whereas broke guys who spend their days and nights chasing women typically seem to do pretty well regardless of their net worth.

First video I’ve seen of the Cybertruck hailing a trailer. Check it out on X (twitter):

You can really judge too much from a video of a Cybertruck flying by hauling a trailer, but it does appear to be casually pulling the trailer, likely for some sort of range test while pulling a load.

It’s a gift for those stacking BTC. My advice would be to grab as much BTC as you can between now and Halloween. I suspect by then the market will be sitting on a powder keg playing with matches. Those who sell now are going to be very happy in the short term and then very sad a year from now. Don’t be sad.

Nice.  A 20% discount puts it around $120 a night.  Not a bad price at all, especially for the amount of rooms.  I didn't look too much into the location and the yard isn't going to host a rager, but still cool to think that you can get a house in Vegas for the night for some sats.  Thanks for posting this here.  If I'm ever in need of a place to stay in Vegas for the night I'll try to remember to keep you in mind.  Would be great if you could list that Bitcoin was accepted on AirBNB.

The great thing about crypto is that it shouldn't matter.  I guess if you're constantly moving money back and forth it might be a big deal, but even then I'm sure you could find the right bank that would be willing to work with you.  If you're just using crypto though, it shouldn't matter if banks cut off your casino.  It could be a problem if they close your account, but like I said, someone will always be willing to provide you the service you need so long as everything you're doing is legal.  At some point banks won't be needed at all...

We may see a slow grind for a bit but it's all just waiting on the inevitable.  With the halving quickly approaching at some point the mood will flip and people will go into heavy accumulation mode.  The amount of demand the market is seeing now even without an ETF is enough to overwhelm sellers once the halving hits.  If an ETF spikes demand on top of that, we're going to see another bubble.  I don't even think the mtgox coins will be enough to hold it down, although that is the last real concern the market has before the perfect storm arrives.

Suddenly I'm seeing a lot of talk about the Suns trading Bradley Beal...  I don't even know if that's an option or something they would want, but I'm hearing names like Donovan Mitchell and James Harden.  I doubt the Suns would be willing to take on Harden as he's a huge risk and has already said he wants to be the number one option on whatever team he lands on, but Mitchell might be a legitimate option if they were trying to flip Beal.  I'd personally rather have Beal as I think he fits in better with other stars, but Mitchell is an elite player when it comes time to show it.

I dislike it when gamblers complain about having an addiction and the things they do to circumvent casino's attempts at helping them, while simultaneously complaining about the casino.  Not just that, but I see a lot of gamblers blaming others for their losses.  It seems like a lot of people think they're going to be the one that beats the system and gets rich while taking ridiculous risks then they blame anyone they can when things don't work out like they thought they would.

Steve Kerr is stirring the pot by saying that he would love to coach Giannis, saying he’s not only a great player but also a great person. I think that’s probably as much as he can say without getting fined for tampering, but it’s pretty clear that Golden State is going to do everything they can to try and sign Giannis when the time comes.

I don’t know who makes those odds or where they’re getting their info from, but to me it’s always been a question of when and not if. It’s been clear for quite some time now that crypto is going to stick around as a new asset class and investors have been hungry for ways to gain exposure in their portfolios. I think it happens before next summer almost certainly.

Word has it that JaVale McGee is going to sign with the Sacramento Kings. I think he’s a great pickup for anyone, but will certainly help the Kings off the bench. Any big bodies to help beat up opposing teams when Sabonis is on the bench will be a welcomed addition in Sacramento. The most exciting gimmick in sports, the beam, will be on full display next season.

I’ve got one in excellent condition. The question is always how much are you willing to pay. At least a ballpark figure might be helpful for others who own one of these. I’m sure everyone would like to buy or sell at some price, so having an idea of what yours is will certainly assist in making a deal come to fruition.

I don’t think the ETF approval will be a case of buy the rumor sell the news. The ETF approvals will open the floodgates for new investors and allow funds that may have otherwise not been able to buy BTC to get involved. While there may be some profit taking by traders initially, an ETF approval is a pretty bullish thing that will likely propel the market for a period of years, not days.

It is funny to read back and get a reminder what the market was 10 years ago. I remember people saying when Bitcoin hit $1,000 they’d be having massive parties and flying people in from all over the world. Amazing that most people sold and disappeared instead of taking the ride. While a $1K BTC seemed far fetched then, a million dollar BTC doesn’t seem out of the question now…

It is suspected that the Cybertruck Release Candidate is out on the streets! This is pretty big news. It means they have finalized a model and are ready to send it to mass production! It won’t be long now. You can see pictures of the release candidate that were posted on Twitter (x) a couple hours ago in the below link.

Now is the time to stack in silence and wait. When mining isn’t profitable has historically been the best time to be mining. By the time it’s profitable that means the price has already risen and everybody is fighting to get as much hashrate as possible. By then it’s too late. If you are able, just mine coins and wait until the market comes back to sell.

Even Dana White has said he has, “no clue” if Conor McGregor is going to be able to fight in December or not. He confirmed that the UFC has no plans for him to fight at this time and no knowledge if he’ll be able to fight or not. I guess the rumor is going around because of an AI generated advertisement and has no basis in reality.

I’m not sure how true all of those ways are changing the game. For example, I’m not sure that using Bitcoin gives people any more privacy than before. Sure, maybe you have an easier chance of submitting fake documents or something because you don’t have to connect a bank to make deposits, but KYC is still a very real thing.

The single best thing a crypto casino could do in my opinion is not have deposits available. Do all the bets on chain and suffer through the fees. That would make everything transparent, would eliminate a large attack vector with hackers trying to steal deposited coins, and would eliminate a lot of customer service issues.
