The Australia team can win today T20 match? Because the Australia need 89 runs in 74 balls with 6 wkts remaining but my guess is the Pakistan going to win match because the Pakistan doing great bowling attack let's see what will happen in end.

Pakistan won the match by 33 runs and won the series with 3-0. This is amazing, tenth consecutive T20 series win; the last time Pakistani team lost any T20 series, it was in Shahid Afridi's captaincy, it's been a long time since then.

Sarfaraz Ahmed is a lucky, successful captain!

The last match of the T20 series between Australia and Pakistan is starting to get very interesting. Australia has lost 3 wickets till now, but still, they're managing to maintain the good run-rate of around 9 runs per over.

I'm guessing Pakistan will complete the T20 series clean sweep by winning again. This will be the 10th consecutive T20 series win for Pakistan.

I wasn't aware that you had such a bad experience with them; I thought you were just shouting at them because they're not "that popular".

From what I've personally experienced, TradeSatoshi is a fine exchange, you may deposit, trade and withdraw; however, holding your funds within the exchange is not something I'd recommend after reading through your experience.

If TradeSatoshi is fine so why it has so low trading volumes? It's enough old exchange. I don't know any coin which grew by TradeSatoshi. It's maybe good for the very beggining of coin trading and no more. Hope Cryptopia will open HUSH market soon

Due to the bad user interface, inability to handle huge traffic and bad support; however, none of these make it a scam (similar to Cryptopia IMO). I've been using Cryptopia for ages, they've undoubtedly one of the worst support teams ever, but they're honest and have no intention of scamming. At Cryptopia, if you get any issue with a withdrawal, they take like 2 weeks to fix it, but in the end, they actually do fix it for you!

Anyways, this is getting off-topic. Let's only talk about HUSH here.

This is very interesting - even the top news outlets like NewsBTC and Bitcoinist can publish & promote anything you want for some 'extra' money.



Personally, I'd only trust CoinDesk and CoinTelegraph with news updates related to crypto. EDIT: I should've used the words "better than most" instead of "trust".

I've been following the updates and announcements of Nexo for a while, but I've got a feeling that Nexo will eventually go completely bankrupt:

Nexo provides mostly upto 50% fiat-value of the deposited crypto; imagine the worth of deposited crypto goes down by 50% - that'll leave Nexo with a loss. Imagine that this continues for a while, Nexo will eventually be left with no cent in their bank and get bankrupt. Risky.

I'm amazed that I didn't talk about "diversification" in all these months; a very important point indeed.

What in the world is happening in UAE right now? 22 for 6 for Australia. Shocked

This one is probably going to be an easy win for Pakistanis.

I am surprised by the way Australia surrendered the match, I feel they're in a crisis mode and need to get Smith and Warner back asap, the team is falling apart and these two can lift it back single handedly.

At one point, it seemed like Australia would get all-out within 50 runs. 89 is Australia's third-lowest T20 score ever, and the lowest is 66; Pakistani team could've made a better record by restricting Australia within the boundary of 65 runs.

It's useless to post here - people who're not wearing hats aren't taken seriously here. I stopped posting here when the first hat of the thread was designed. I've no plans of quitting FJ's generous signature campaign for a hat. Roll Eyes

More hats = less volatility (The Past Month, Bitcoin Has Been Less Volatile Than NASDAQ, DOW and S&P 500)

Coins pump really hard after they get listed on Bittrex, PumaPay did 500% jump after it got listed on Bittrex :O



It happened because PumaPay's marketcap before the listing was only US$4 million, and it's a sort-of first major exchange for PumaPay.

Recently, DATA (DTA) hardly did a 2x after listing at Bittrex because it was already being traded at a few major exchanges before listing.

Maybe if you read this article, you will uunderstand better that there is a huge difference between USDT and TUSD, when it comes to trust and the two should not even be compared at all.
https://medium.com/faast/trueusd-vs-tether-which-crypto-dollar-is-worth-your-dollars-115bf30787e0

I hope you know the issue that has been going on with tether for a while now in terms of not being backed by real cash, and just being printed out of the blue, as well as the team not even being transparent enough to allow auditing. These are some of the things that TUSD has solved and for what it is worth, a lot of people looking to hedge their funds already have ended up losing trust in USDT and now have to look for a better alternative.
Based on the article;
Quote
Each TrueUSD token is backed up 1-to-1 with real US dollars. However, TrustToken does not actually hold any USD reserves themselves. Instead, they have partnered with legally registered banks and fiduciary institutions which hold the dollars in escrow — a time-tested and widely understood legal framework which has been in use for generations.
I guess that explains the difference you need.

I did read that before making this thread, but what I'm trying to focus here is the "background" of the company we're relying on. A few months back, FSS report did tell that all of USDTs are backed by a dollar, but that can't assure that it'll continue to be backed by a dollar. However, in the cases of Gemini, Circle, and Coinbase, we do know about most of the background of these companies and they're much more reliable than TUSD or USDT.

In the discord channel Duke Leto writes that he is already testing a new build HUSH 2.0. So in the near future we may expect a new pump after updating the software on Cryptopia.

That coin is eating the floor while you are thumb sucking.

Notice. It is still being traded on tradesatoshi. Perhaps you should head for more non-legit exchanges.

BTW, TradeSatoshi isn't that bad. You can't just go on and call it a "non-legit exchange". Roll Eyes

I only got 100 doges stolen on there. Petty theft.

That was in the days when they turned 2fa on and of constantly while the manager was acting like a moron in the chat.

After that i chickened out. Thieves are gonna burn in hell and i don't wanna be anywhere near when that happens.

PS: May you find peace with your maker.

I don't understand why they chose Ethereum considering its occasional seizures and fee explosions but they're better qualified than I am to decide. ETC makes more sense as it's quieter but maybe the whiff of decentralisation is enough to scare them away.

And on the long term the winner could be ... Ethereum, since it seems to be the transport layer of choice.

Long-term winner? It's looking more like a long-term loser to me. Ethereum developers are unable to find a possible scaling solution (they're making promises regarding sharding update like every month, but unable to produce anything at all), and this USDC can prove to be yet another CryptoKitties-type thing for Ethereum.

@gentlemand Maybe Coinbase wants to prove that Ethereum is a failure and then move USDC to Ethereum Classic? Grin



Man, if only Cardano's ecosystem was 100% ready to face it all up, it'd have easily filled up this "vacuum". I'm afraid this vacuum will be filled by someone else by the time Cardano gets fully ready-to-go.

Get ready Ethereum, a lot more traffic is about to arrive! USDC is Ethereum-based token!

Quote
A USDC follows the ERC20 standard, which means it can be used with any app that accepts tokens based on that standard. The USDC can thus be used as a stable digital dollar to buy items in the crypto ecosystem, from Cryptokitties to tickets for blockchain-based games.

The underlying technology behind the USDC was developed collaboratively between Coinbase and Circle, in our capacity as partners and co-founders of the new CENTRE Consortium.

Today’s launch is made possible by the collaboration between Coinbase and Circle, as co-founders of the new CENTRE Consortium. Both Coinbase and Circle operate with a compliance-first approach and a track record of security. That’s why we believe CENTRE is uniquely positioned to offer USDC to people who want to take advantage of the benefits of stablecoins.

Well, Coinbase sort-of developed it along with Circle, both would be equally responsible for anything that goes wrong with it. Roll Eyes
