Correct, we havent seen anything yet! the big boys have yet to enter the scene but it wont be long before they do. https://beincrypto.com/price-prediction-bitcoin-773000/Last week, BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, announced it will offer Bitcoin trading and custody services to institutional investors through Coinbase Prime. Most people only believe in Bitcoin because of the price, well that's a wrong thought.

Yes, so many people need "proof" that Bitcoin is going to do what they read about. There will always be those who buy in at the top and sell at the bottom.

I received my copy of this DIY coin yesterday and I took some snaps below to show off the quality of the item, which is of course very very nice. I couldnt find my air blower to blow off the dust specs so rather than rubbing the surface they are left on, apologies. Everyone should hodl at least 1 1HODLCLUB collectible! ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Flh3.googleusercontent.com%2F-0XAQHaJFBSk%2FYvVPaH1VgHI%2FAAAAAAAABII%2FUlsHDXRiPIUBgvsdWoclzSZ8WSkC6aOQQCNcBGAsYHQ%2Fs1600%2F1660243813737224-0.png&t=663&c=pOjswsJ9PpYnIg)

Hi All, I have had this idea from the very start of the Bitcoin Colouring Book project andI think and hope people find it interesting and will participate apologies for all the "ands"The idea is to have a group of people around the world colour part of 1 book, lets say #50 and then raffle it off for free!
The group of people would be chosen by raffle also.
I kick it off, colour 1 page and then post to the next person who in turn colours a page of their liking and posts it on. Obviously you will incur a cost of having to post it to the next in line.
The last and 12th person in the line holds the book until the raffle is complete and then posts it to the winner.
Its supposed to be a fun project and another give back to the community and should also gain added value from being created in part by the group and potentially some legends of the Collectibles Board
So post up what you think!
Here is the list of participants from 21/08/2022
Markzellers mx12.levins xSlyy Cryptogreatdane owlcatz doblezero minerjones giammangiato MoparMiningLLC ZipReg Timelord Timelord Remsjack
Ok so this is how I see it happening:
1. One page for everyone except Timelord2067 as he would like two of his mates to colour a page each, and he bought 2 books which I guess are for those mates, I'm ok with that.[/i][/sup]
2. As mentioned above its freestyle so you can colour a printed page how you like, pencil, pen, marker*, paint, pastel**, airbrush if you have the skill or collage, but I would like if the blank pages are kept blank. Everyones ability is different, I think we all understand that, so no worries about what you can or cannot do, it has to be enjoyable.
3. You can pick whatever page is available, obviously except person #12 on the list, but those people who are the last positions on the list get to see in the flesh all of the other work!
4. We have 3 continents involved, Europe, Australia and America, I guess we send the book East, there is no point sending it to Australia to come back to Europe then on to America and back again to Europe, So I think we keep it as fluid as this:
I know doblezero is in Europe so I will lost the book there, when he/she is finished they post their work in the thread and the next European puts their hand up and doblezero posts to them. what do you all think? I have made a list predetermining the journey of the book.
5. Once the book is posted initially by myself, I wont see it again. At the end the person in 12th spot holds onto the book until the winner of the raffle/auction is decided.
6. Raffle or Auction? a free raffle for the BCT community or an Auction to be split 11 ways for all the Artists? or charity as mentioned earlier on?
* using felt tip markers with result in a lot of bleeding I'm suspecting and may not be handy in finer details
** pastels, chalk or wax, will need fixing when complete.

I watched the match between Medvedev and Kyrgios, well the last 2 sets! I thought his performance was brilliant and as one of the commentators said on his day he can beat anyone. Some of the shots he made were astounding.
I also disagree that Medvedev is not #1 material, at the moment with all that is going on the Russian players have a lot of distraction and broken schedules, these are not normal times but he definitely has all the criteria to become #1 and retain that spot for some time.

I just checked in with ROLLBIT to see if they have listed the Outrights and they do as follows for the winner: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Flh3.googleusercontent.com%2F-YkQyP_lrNHo%2FYvRsa4FBVBI%2FAAAAAAAABH4%2FjExO39d2ai8c4e_y24swj4Ie8mULlqeYQCNcBGAsYHQ%2Fs1600%2F1660185704668306-0.png&t=663&c=KC1zYp1U_OkNfQ) For this weeks round I have only 3 wagers: Panthers to beat Storm Cowboys to beat the Roosters Sharks to beat Wests Tigers

I got my copy a few weeks ago and have been meaning to snap a few photos to help out with " exposing the product to the risk of sale" This is a really different coin, different finish and different theme. The aged Copper finish is in keeping with that steampunk theme. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Flh3.googleusercontent.com%2F-ZvQ0tozJ1wY%2FYvQWbF4EpNI%2FAAAAAAAABHQ%2FJSzQYACp-vIpuU9qrD7J9-uySfHPAEWjACNcBGAsYHQ%2Fs1600%2F1660163689585553-4.png&t=663&c=pcWxjPp3-NRhDg) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Flh3.googleusercontent.com%2F-_YcM5tMYP5Q%2FYvQWcgBiqbI%2FAAAAAAAABHY%2F5zdvLsoPRjY-Co5nT7hY0pDPc0upKzLqgCNcBGAsYHQ%2Fs1600%2F1660163695625976-2.png&t=663&c=vsDEcc0BZKjfWQ) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Flh3.googleusercontent.com%2F-EW9xoy3drB4%2FYvQWb9_8U9I%2FAAAAAAAABHU%2FJckhpFgPDOQrIE19Usscqn5xIK_iBX6-ACNcBGAsYHQ%2Fs1600%2F1660163692665346-3.png&t=663&c=RQ-hkP-czVfPtg) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Flh3.googleusercontent.com%2F-x7fi-QlZS3Q%2FYvQWdfu0PRI%2FAAAAAAAABHc%2Fhw2ruTs86rgaN78T7_ewl52yTBnRnPsUwCNcBGAsYHQ%2Fs1600%2F1660163698478371-1.png&t=663&c=MjCzkFpzNDNhIQ) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Flh3.googleusercontent.com%2F-npFOVQuYCZY%2FYvQWd2cl5UI%2FAAAAAAAABHg%2FekYIPDFt4doJoE5GwuJXo8uIDAh4Xwj2wCNcBGAsYHQ%2Fs1600%2F1660163701113697-0.png&t=663&c=zDB3giwIZmU9Xg)

Looks professionally done in a lot of cases.
Easily at first glance. The AI is just having a bit of trouble with the symbols. An AI generated art and with just a few touch ups by a graphics designer(to fix the weird symbols) then there's an 80%+ chance I wouldn't be able to differentiate it from human art. Yes some of the logo attempts look under developed to a point that it you didnt know the artwork was Bitcoin themed you wouldnt get it. Then in other cases the logo looks enough developed that it is identifiable but looks like an "ancient" form of the logo and looks like it suits the mood of the "art". If you compare the life of a person studying fine art who goes through the different media like watercolour, oil, acrylic, pastels, graphite etc. and the various techniques and different surfaces over a number of years and then specialises in a particular field honing their style and individualism and compare that to a computer which can knock something like the above out in a short space of time, there is definitely a value in one but what about the other?

Nice collection!
AI technology has been grown very impressively recently. Two years ago, AI wrote high quality articles and now can draw high quality arts. In theory, many of their works are better than things created by normal people (not experts). I am not sure how they get inputs to make those arts but there are applications to create personalized avatars that I reject to use. They are risky but some people easily to accept their requirements, and upload their personal photos in order to create funny avatars. When they realize what they do are stupid, it's very late. Its actually jaw dropping the amount of art there is and the diversity of the themes. I kind of fear for the future of true human created art after seeing these. I can imagine how people would think its "kool" to upload a photo of yourself to get an AI fantasy version back, but worrying too.

^ Nice one Trofo!
Yea I have Carreno Busta for today against Rune and also De Minaur to beat Dimitrov.
So Kyrgios got the job done yesterday against Baez and today faces #1 seed Medvedev. Given Kyrgios' high performance ATM and Medvedev's lack of game time compared, does anyone give Nick a chance? ROLLBIT are being cautious and only offering up to +2.5 on Kyrgios.

Montreal started, without Nadal and Djokovic, there will a lot of interesting matches, and several players could reach final stage
for today, I will go with Cilic, Krajinovic and Berrettini, solid picks, not bad odds, Krajinovic @2.2 is a value bet, IMO Medvedev is top spot, but I do not think he will take the title
Just watching Kyrgios against Baez ATM, if Kyrgios wins this he will face Medvedev in the next round. Its the first set and Nick was 1-5 up and looked super focussed but seems to be getting a bit negative now. Its now 4-5 ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) Yea its time for her to retire, she is still super talented and that carries her so far but there are plenty of players now who can easily beat her.

To be clear, we're talking trades or swaps from one crypto to another not just cashing out.
...snip...
Isn't it insane that only in the USA, they tax trades and then expect YOU to figure out how much you "owe"??
Who is checking to see what trades you make and if what you declare is correct? Seems a bit strange that you can declare anything but then I imagine they then go and check that you are making a proper declaration. So for that reason I'm guessing over 60% have not paid taxes (I know I havent paid 1 cent in all the years buying, trading and selling, but dont tell anyone ....)

Kyrgios and most of the players have moved on to the tournament in Montreal. Nick plays Baez today, a match which he should win, hopefully he can carry his performance forward from the Citi Open.
Also Murray has to tough match today against Fritz, Fritz has has a good year but I see a chance of Murray winning this one.

Hi all, I went to the post office today with the first 4 orders but I had to take back ZipReg's parcel to repack as it was over weight.
I hope to get this repacked ans sent tomorrow along with some more orders. All orders to date will be posted by Wednesday.
Also I have updated the OP to include that all copies will be signed and dated.
Cheers, a.

Well i see the last 20 minutes when argentina was ahead and what i see was a lot of fault whistled by the referee and i really dont see any , but i think he was so fussy and charged Argentina with 8 fault in 10 minutes, however the Argentinian narrator says the Pumas was losing the discipline and commited so much fouls , so i think i was 50 % of referee and 50% of the Pumas players.
Hmm, The Pumas still have a lot of work to do to be more competitive. They are playing in a competition with 3 top teams. Rugby LeagueFrom my bets at the weekend on the Telstra Premiership down under I am 4 from 4, its been a long time since I had all winners. RUGBY LEAGUE NRL

Was out of the circulation for the last 24 hours or so, and we know that I supported Nick Kyrgios in this tournament, but damn, he really make me a believer of him right now.
He beat Ymer easy, while Rublev was crushed by Nishioka. Setting up a finals between him and Nishioka. And then winning in 2 straight sets, but I guess the best match is him against Tiafoe? what are your thoughts of his performance? is this for real moving forward?
Its really difficult to know! I would say his performance and appearance in the final at Wimbledon gave him some extra belief that he can actually win a tournament. I saw the match against Tiafoe and he did have a mini melt down when the umpire had to call a halt in his service because one of the ball kids had returned to the wrong position. Nick serves very quickly so he got really shouty about that. Otherwise he was focussed. Well done to him, its been 3 years since his last title so there is still a lot to talk about, will he continue his performance? given he doesnt play a full season, when is his next tournament and will be be focussed enough then? I see also that he won the doubles with Jack Sock too!
