We have a new kid on the block!



Everyone welcome VeChain, a new UFC sponsor Cheesy UFC and VeChain Announce Historic Global Marketing Partnership - VeChain Becomes First Official Layer 1 Blockchain Partner of UFC — VeChain to Receive Unprecedented Integration into UFC Assets. First appearance will happen already this weekend, during Teixera vs Prochazka event.

This is the second cryptocurrency integration with out bellowed sport. Can we call another step of crypto adoption? I think we can.



Vechain?  Why do I suddenly feel like I'm in 2017?  Cheesy  Isn't that project dead?

Zhang seem not learning what she got though. She relied mostly to her strength, there is no doubt she is strong but with versatile Namajunas, Zhang doesn't know how to deal.




First match he got caught by surprise with the head kick, second fight she trained with Fight Ready MMA with Eddie Cha and Henry Cejudo.  I think training with them made Zhang Weili a tad restrained with the striking to accomodate more wrestling in her game which isn't her.  Dunno...  But in that second fight she didn't look like she can crack like she did vs JJ during their first match.

But it looks like she left Fight Ready to train at Thailand tho from what I saw at Embedded.  Prolly at Tiger?

1st hour completed, to mee it seems that RBR wil lhave no opponents this weekend.

I'm back and forth for this GP.  Lol.  The books has Verstappen as the favorite but we know the best car out there with the best power unit are the Ferraris.  And Leclerc is a good driver.  And on the other hand, there's Perez, who seems to do well in this circuit as said in my post prior.  Let's see what happens by FP3.  It's Leclerc then Perez 1 - 2 after 15 mins at FP2...  Can't wait for the results in this one.

From what I can remember Verstappen to win is at 2.10, Leclerc at 2.75 and Perez at 6.25 or something.  And it's looking like he's flipping the script on Verstappen.  Cheesy

I just saw a post about Lewandowski whose club information is currently Manchester United (but unfortunately, the post seems to have been deleted by the account owner)



https://id.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Lewandowski


 Is Wikipedia wrong in writing it ..? I searched for info about this truth but couldn't find. Looks like Wikipedia gave the wrong club info on Lewandowski's profile page. because so far it's been news circulating that Lewandowski will go from Bayern Munich to Barcelona and Barcelona is only what Lewandowski wants next. I will continue to monitor this development looks like a big surprise will happen

Well, I noticed that there were a lot of incorrectly informed data from this case, such as Lewandowski's nationality and the current status of the club. was wikipedia hacked.?


If ever you don't know where exactly a player is going for his next club then it's always good to check what the books are saying.  Check the lines at Oddschecker...

https://www.oddschecker.com/football/football-specials/robert-lewandowski/club-after-summer-transfer-window

The books have more inside info of what's really going on behind the scenes than any of us.  So yeah, looking at the odds, the best line is 1.50 that he's going to Barca next.  United is lined at 19.  Could be worth a fiver cos who knows.  Grin  And I don't mind seeing him at United tho.  Seems like a good fit.

Looks like BTC could start selling down but check this chart out...  If that range right now for support doesn't look solid, I don't know what is.  I mean sellers have prolly run out of coins to sell by now.  Tney've been selling since November and shorters shorting the bottom would be like the dumbest thing to do ever rn.  Would it?  

I'm thinking it could range a bit between 27k - 28k and 40k - 45k for a year or so before bull mode.

Ropsten testnet has successfully merged to the beacon chain and it has now transitioned to proof of work.  So yeah...  A couple of testnets more then mainnet is next.

As for how the ETH market reacted on the testnet merge, nothing much.  I think the mainnet merge is too far off for the market to ger hyped for it and start buying up.  We'll see by the third testnet merge.  That should happen in around three months with mainnet merge around December?



2626  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Motosport General discussion tread --- Formula1, MotoGP, WTCC, ETCC, DTM..... on: June 09, 2022, 01:39:30 PM
^  But remember, at Monaco Verstappen was worse than Perez at FP1, FP2, FP3, qualifying and the race.  Perez on the other hand has had decent results at Azerbaijan with having a couple of podiums when he was at Force India and on top of my head, a win last year with his current team.  So thinking about it, Perez could still the show again.

But then again Ferrari should be fighting back here.  And it was partly the wet track that messed up their weekend.  If it was  under dry conditions, Leclerc would've won it easy.

^  Yeah it's in UFC Fight Pass if you have a subscription.  I got mine cancelled just a couple of months ago as I couldn't watch the events live lately.  Just some irl stuff going on that's making me a tad busy.  You could find live streams at Reddit tho if you don't want to get a subscription.  Lol.

And the prelims at least have a betting market for us to drop some bets on.  The Road to the UFC events are just for watching.  Alone it's meh but watching it with friends over beers could be fun.
2628  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETH Sentiment Poll for June on: June 08, 2022, 02:38:24 PM
^  Yup, I or anybody really can't say you're wrong there.  But the 1700 - 1800 range has been holding well so far as support.  But for how long and how strong...  Nobody really knows.  One thing I could say is if the merge happens and nothing goes wrong, I think we'll start seeing ETH staying above 2000 or even 3000 and not go back down.

And btw, the first test for the merge is happening in 30 mins!

https://wenmerge.com/#ROPSTEN

Cross your fingers and hope nothing goes wrong so we get to be a step closer for the real merge by year end.

This looks cool..  Since UFC 275 is going to be in Singapore, the UFC organized a couple of tournaments for fighters located around Asia.  The winner of each tourney gets a contract in the UFC.

Here are the Tapology pages for the opening rounds.  These are prolly some of the best MMA fighters in Asia?  I'll def try to watch these if I have some spare time.

^  I think Prochazka should get the 'W' but yeah, the line could be off.  I know Prochzka is really fast for his weight class and he's very athletic.  But he could get hit.  And I do mean get hit.  Watch his past two fights at MMACore vs Reyes and Oezdemir.  So yeah I pick Prochazka for the multi master and pick Teixeira for my lottery ticket.  Lower tier tho.

Choi - Allen
Kape - Fialho
Edwards - Garcia - Madalena
Juarez - JJ - Teixeira
Kang - Shev

^  Placed Shev at the lowest ticket as she doesn't add much value and she could be the one spoiling everything if I put her on top.

Here's jeremypwr's multi master for 275.

June hasn't actually started any badly, has it, thus i expect us to finish as strongly as the month has started, lol, not too high though, but something within the range of 35k, or maybe even higher, who knows. But i just have this hunch that we wouldn't be going too down this month, or maybe even for the rest of the year. Bitcoin is still at a good price to accumulate more Cool, not that there is ever a bad time to purchase some Bitcoins anyway.

27k-28k looks to me like the "lowest of the lows" we can get this year, that is what i think.
Im not expecting that much on which i do even see that the price is still moving just on the same behavior when it was still on May.We arent making such significant movements in towards it price thats why im not really making

myself that hopeful for some bullish run for this month so that you wont really get yourself to be that frustrated and there's no way that someone could predict on what would be happening in June but there's
always a possibility or probability that we might be seeing some significant movement or rise yet we've been moving sideways for a while now.

A 'bullish month' would be a tall order for BTC or any other coin.  The best we can hope for is support holds, I don't care how long it staya there as long as it holds.  But then again, strong support that keeps on getting tested makes for a nice set up for shorting if it breaks down or so I've heard...  Lol.  Stay safe out there guys.

But all in all, it still looks like it's holding well.  I mean who would be dumb enough to sell now if you held all this time?
2633  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Motosport General discussion tread --- Formula1, MotoGP, WTCC, ETCC, DTM..... on: June 07, 2022, 03:25:28 PM
Mmmm..  I'd like to see him at Aston Martin for a couple more years tbh.  It hasn't really been great since the rebrand from pink to green but I have a feeling they'll get it right next year.  The revised 2022 specs wasn't really good timing for them.  But think about it, just a couple of years before the rebrand, they were a midtable team who was always fighting for the top spots outside Reb Bull and Mercedes.

But yeah, my guess is it's over for Vettel.  He'll retire after this season as his contract ends this year.

I suppose it seems quite likely he'll go, but it just depends on his mindset. Some drivers, notably Raikkonen, just carry on for years even though they're not going to win races any more. Vettel still performs at a decent level, and I'm sure there will be a drive for him somewhere if he wants it, although maybe not on a mega-salary. Basically it's in his hands, if he has the hunger and will to carry on, he will. If he wants to leave F1 and pursue other stuff, he'll do that instead. But I think it will be his decision, he won't be forced out.

Yeah, more likely he is.  But not because I think he isn't in a good mindset.  It's just because he and Aston Martin hasn't come to an agreement for a new contract.  So it will be a seperation by mutual agreement.  Vettel thought Aston Martin could give him a car to somewhat challenge for GP's and the team prolly expected somewhat a tad more from Vettel. 

Anyway, who you guys got at Azerbaijan?  I feel like Leclerc will get one back.  He'll be first in FP1 thru FP3, quali and the race.

^  It would be cool if there was like an RLB store where you can buy Rollbit merch, convert it to non withdrawable cash bets for the site or even giving it the ability to bid for NFT's that were minted in house at Rollbit...  Pokerstars had a cool points system and frequent player points store back in the day that made those FPP's good as cash as you can convert them to tournament tickets, cool items in the store like travel tickets from Expedia and even a Porsche.  I have yet to see another gambling site have something as good be it fiat or crypto.
2635  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Motosport General discussion tread --- Formula1, MotoGP, WTCC, ETCC, DTM..... on: June 07, 2022, 01:40:11 PM
Alex Albon bringing the only points to a Williams car in many years, even in a car that is so bad that they had to give Latifi a place in order to get some money, is the epitome of talent. Dude deserved to keep that RBR seat, but I get it, he doesn't bring in that much money, maybe Perez doesn't neither but Perez is a great defender whereas Albon was a bit more attacking and they already had Max, so they didn't needed another offensive minded racer, but needed a second that would help Max, not force him or risk him.

But, Albon should get a decent ride again, maybe Mclaren after Daniel leaves, which I am assuming shouldn't be really too far off by the looks of it.

Yup Ricciardo is at high risk of losing his seat.

In the list of leaving F1 drivers, we also have Vettel (he wanted to retire this yeah but after that idea, he looked at his salary...)

What do you mean 'he looked at his salary'?  You saying Vettel is one greedy sob who only cares about money?  Didn't he accept a pay cut to be with Aston Martin?  And if you mean he needs more money then nope.  I think after signing multiple lucrative contracts with Red Bull and with Ferrari, I don't think he needs more money.  He's doing it for the love of being an F1 driver.  I wouldn't be surprised if he takes another pay cut to slide in Ricciardo's spot at McLaren.  And I hope he does...  

And how come Verstappen is slight favorite to win at Azerbaijan?  He's lined at 2.10 and Leclerc is at 2.75?  I think the books have it wrong and they're suffering from recency bias.

Ah how I wish he would come to McLaren,would love to see a great driver,a 4 times world Champion joining McLaren which although it doesn't look like they are in great shape,it is only the first year with the new regulations and maybe they will improve dramatically for the next year.I have always loved to see a classy driver like Vettel is to race for McLaren.

No the bookies are not wrong,Redbull has great power at full speed and as far as I know the Baku circuit is a fast track.I would normally rate both drivers with the same odd as it will be only their bravery who will decide for who will be the winner,both Ferrari and Redbull as cars are great and in this track I think their performance to be nearly the same,for this we have to wait on Friday.

Mmmm..  I'd like to see him at Aston Martin for a couple more years tbh.  It hasn't really been great since the rebrand from pink to green but I have a feeling they'll get it right next year.  The revised 2022 specs wasn't really good timing for them.  But think about it, just a couple of years before the rebrand, they were a midtable team who was always fighting for the top spots outside Reb Bull and Mercedes.

Decent PPV event this coming weekend. I'm not too excited about it for a PPV but still good as there are nice match ups outside the main and the co main.  Watch out for Bontorin vs Kape, rematch between Zhang Weili and JJ and Choi vs Culibao...  Kang vs Batgerel should be good too for a low level match up.

With the cancellation of Whitaker and vetorri for this up coming Saturday not the most exciting ppv you are right. In recent months fights that have headlined women have been a bit of a disappointment. This is nothing against women or the fighters themselves, just not really living up the hype, think Dana must have noticed this and with the return of his favorite shevshenko she is sure to put some oomf back into women's MMA. I expect a new champion with the Czech monster showing dominance of the old Brazilian.

Oooh right!  That match up would've been more exciting than the main event imho.  But I think it's too early for Whitaker to take on another high level fighter after taking on Adesnya just a couple of months or so ago.  And he took on good fighters before the rematch before Adesanya too.  Till, Cannonier and a depleted Gastelum.  That's an impressive run.  And I guess who's going for it again by going thru Vettori, Costa and maybe Brunson?

Anyway, who do you guys got for the main event?  I'm thinking Prochazka for my mulit master and Teixeira in the low tier of my lottery ticket for value.

^  Yeah...  And you mostly win back the money you pay for those loot boxes in RLB tho.  Which is pretty good since you can stake them in the 'lottery' which is another good way of putting it.  And smart tbh.  

And this is just me, but I think with how good the site is, RLB could be one undervalued token.  It could be a good idea to start acquiring some during the bear market.  The chart doesn't really look good atm but give it a few months or so...  Don't fade.
