@Saint-loup. Thank you for the correction. However, yes a Canadian with French ancestors. This is still the French in him that have made him create very good movies, I reckon. It is very head scratching for me that you mentioned you do not like his style. Sicario and Arrival are very good movies with very good sound, cinematography and the feeling being given to the person is very capturing of the attention. I will watch Dune 2 again hehehehe.

On Dune 3, he has already mentioned that the script is ready, however, he also mentioned that he wants to rest from the Dune universe and make another type movie. I speculate this to be Sicario 2. I also very much like to see this hehehe. I predict Dune 3 might arrive in 5 years.

Tyson is having a snap press conference soon at 12:30 GMT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40ZkLdYVtJ4



Apparently he's doing it by himself. Bit bizarre announcing a shock press conference within 24 hours. I've got a feeling this isn't going to be good news. Retirement, postponement, failed a drug test???

It appears that Tyson Fury might have made this decision to have a snap press conference because he wants to promote the fight, however,he also wants to promote this under his own schedule. I will not be shocked if he is not present on 1 or 2 official press conferences. He will be busy training hehehe.

On the press conference, Tyson Fury has certainly made a very good argument on size and why being bigger is certainly always better in boxing if the fight is between fighters of similar measure of capabilities.
303  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Biden resurrects 30% crypto mining tax in new budget proposal on: April 11, 2024, 01:36:23 AM

Lets just admit it. Biden is never going to try and stop taxing people involved in bitcoin.  Shocked

He knows or the government sees how impactful bitcoin has been to the individual livelihood of their citizens. America has one of the most bitcoin transactions in the world and we don’t even have the exact number of bitcoin owners in the country.

Of course the government needs to capitalize on that. Quite a bad news for american investors.

Similar to what was being mentioned and argued before, the American government will use regulation and taxation to control different types of industries that are under their jurisdiction. This is not only about bitcoin. However, also similar to what @pooya87 has mentioned, the American government has no choice but to increase taxes everywhere. Their national debt is very enormous and much of the monthly interest payment for this will be coming from taxes.

I looked at the UFC 300 card and I was a bit unimpressed to be honest.  I really wanted to see Conor McGregor make a comeback but it looks now like that will never happen.  I did toss a couple bets out there though even though I'm a bad UFC fan (a casual admittedly).  I like Sterling and think he's going to win.  Looks like the oddsmakers agree with me.  I also don't think Holly Holm has enough left in the tank to beat Kayla Harrison.  Holly is just too old now.  She is a great fighter, but I think she's nearing the retirement age.  I think at 42 years old, a 33 year old will probably clean her clock...  That being said, I still want Tyson to beat Jake Paul so who knows...


Calvin Kattar  vs.  A. Sterling
Holly Holm  vs.  Kayla Harrison


I very much agree on your prediction. This Kayla Harrison's arms appear to be very strong to wrap Holly Holm with a stretcher and throw this outside of the octagon. If you are shaking your head because you do not believe me, this is her picture. This manly fighting pitbull will become a champion in the women's bantamweight division and women's featherweight division. I predict that she will cause Amanda Nuñes to fight again and prove who is the more manly woman in the UFC hehehehehe. I might be joking, however, I am also serious.

However, Tyson Fury presently has been training 24 hours a day without a rest. He uploaded his latest picture on social media. You will notice the very big difference.



Wow, The Rock Dwayne Johnson is in great shape. However, if Fury considers himself to be one, then most likely he does not train 24/7 but is again experiencing mental problems due to cocaine and nandrolone  Grin

Quotes haunt me - at the moment on sportsbet.io it’s literally 1.85 to 1.85. In theory, such a dramatic change is a sure sign that you should bet against the former favorite. But 1.85 doesn't seem like good compensation for the risk.

However, if Tyson Fury trained for the fight against Francis Ngannou and punched Francis straight to the stretcher and carried out by Mike Tyson, would the odds on Fury be 1.85? It will certainly be very much lower, I reckon. This is the picture mentioned that was being compared by the fans to the Rock.

Also, what is this nondrolone? This is my first time knowing this ehehe. Is this good? Will this drug cause Fury to imagine and invent a new punch heheheh.

I predict that if the Donald Trump will win the presidency of America, his administration will certainly treat the cryptospace much better than the Biden administration has treated this. The Donald will want to regulate this, however, it will not be similar to how uncle Gary has done where he is doing regulation through enforcement. The Donald's tactic of regulating the cryptospace will be more diplomatic and fair. We can be quite sure of this.
Whoever takes the office will face the same budget deficits, ginormous expenses, $35 trillion national debt, global dedollarisation, and a lot more issues. They'll have to pretty much increase taxes, increase interest rates, print trillions of dollars, and a lot more to get out of the mess that has been building up for the past 20+ years...

You have made a very good argument. It appears this Cointelegraph is again only creating another fud for our clicks and engagement hehehe.

In any case, the outcome from this will be similar. Some of these miners under the jurisdiction of America will begin to be not be profitable enough to maintain their mining farms and they will start to migrate to other countries. However, the new mayor of bitcoin might have something to do about this. He does not want his investment bothered by puppets heheheee.
307  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: US Department of Justice vs KuCoin on: April 10, 2024, 02:26:37 AM
The main gist of the allegations is that the exchange did not have KYC until mid-2023.

And what will happen to those exchanges, which even now do not have KYC?


If the American government can harass Binance and for force their CEO to retire and pay billions in settlement, they can also do this against Kucoin or any of the regulated exchange presently operating in the cryptospace.

On the exchanges that are unregulated, have never imposed KYC and that have an anonymous development team, the American government can seize their domain similar to what we have witnessed being done on bitcoin mixers.
308  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Inoue vs Nery For Undisputed 122lbs Title - May on: April 09, 2024, 06:23:16 AM
@Baofeng. I reckon Inoue should not fight against someone without a big name. This thread is only 4 pages, however, the scam ICO fight of Mike Tyson and Jake Paul is more than 5 pages already hehehe. Why is this? This certainly implies that Inoue has not yet reached the same type of popularity like Pacman. Also, Inoue's fight is in Japan? He should begin to fight his championship defenses in as Vegas the fight capital of the world. There will also be more money in his purse if he will fight in Las Vegas.

Finally there is a video from Usyk, it took a long time. The problem is the amount of talk there is going on in the media. Fury is keeping a low profile with the exception of his recent sparring video and we are scratching our heads wondering where the promotion is. Where is the media hype?

Could it really be a case of both boxers simply being focused on their training to the extent they have almost closed themselves off from the outside world media?

Well for those who wanted to see some kind of promotion, here is a video of Usyk

https://twitter.com/MichaelBensonn/status/1777428051938210132

Not that much, and there are another video of him hurting his sparring partner with a quick over hand left. We will probably see a video of Fury then next trying to trash talk Usyk with those videos that he released.

I speculate that if Tyson Fury is very quiet, this is where he might be spending all of his time only on training and creating new tactics with his father. I reckon that it should be very clear that the Fury we have witnessed against Francis Ngannou did not train. He was eating, drinking and watching his cartoon shows while Francis was in the gym hehehe.

However, Tyson Fury presently has been training 24 hours a day without a rest. He uploaded his latest picture on social media. You will notice the very big difference.

310  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC Sentiment Poll for April on: April 09, 2024, 04:37:46 AM
I voted yes because I cannot vote for I do not know. Similar to the concerns from many people, the American government made a test transaction of $69 to Coinbase. The person who sent this amount has a sense of humor hehehee. However, there is a speculated amount of another 30,000 coins to be sent and this might be dumped on our faces with mouths open. However again, the halving will be on April 18 which might cause a pump. This will be a head scratching market.
311  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: SEC vs Coinbase on: April 09, 2024, 03:06:55 AM
bbc.reporter,a conspiracy theory must remain a conspiracy theory, or conspiracy theorists will have no jobs Smiley

Sometimes it looks funny and absurd when the rulers cannot agree among themselves and a big circus begins.
Look at the behavior of the current US President, he confuses the names of people, countries, forgets what laws he recently signed, talks and greets fictitious people on camera, falls asleep at events, and yet he will run for a new term. How does it work?

Joe Biden is an old man being controlled by the real rulers of America. I reckon much of the politicians are not 100% in control of what they do in government. They already have made deals and negotitations with their backers before they have been voted into office. Do not listen to their speeches and their promises.

On this only being a conspiracy theory, this is very much certainly more the reality than the conspiracy theory that the moon landings were fake.
312  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2024 Oscar Awards bets and discussions on: April 08, 2024, 04:29:00 AM
@Saint-loup. Yes, I would very much recommend to watch Dune 2 in a theatre alone with all of your snacks ready and going to toilet before it begins to make it certain that you will not go to toilet during the movie hehehehe. I have seen the movie 3 times. The 3rd time was only at home with a clear enough copy on tv. It was a different experience on tv. In the theatre, the movie gave me much more emotion and excitement. I will not spoil it, however, the ending of this movie is the most very perfect ending for a movie. This frenchman has raised the standard for directing movies, I reckon
313  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Two Kucoin Founders accused of violating anti-laundering laws etc. on: April 08, 2024, 03:40:14 AM
I very much agree! Use DeFi if you want to trade or swap cryptocoins and tokens.

On the question if Kucoin will collapse or not, I speculate that it might occur very much similar to Binance where they are forced by regulators in each jurisdiction to cooperate. Also if their founders will become targets of the American government, they might also be forced to pay a large settlement fee hehehe. However, this is not like a similar case to CZ and Binance. CZ has only become a target because he was the trigger on FTX's collapse. Kucoin might pay only a small fee heheheeh.
Now that DeFi is more widespread, maybe it is highly recommended.

It is the same speculation that the case of Kucoin is almost similar to Binance but the pressure of Kucoin will not be so big because the owner only violates what has been stated by the US government.
Until now I have not seen how much the fine will be imposed on the founder of Kucoin maybe this is still a stage process where the US government will announce it soon.

This is only in the beginning stages of the case heheeh. We are presently witnessing what was being argued last year in the forum. This argument was if the American government can force CZ to retire as CEO of Binance and can also force him to pay billions in settlement, it might also do it against any exchange that are offering their services in America. Political connections will be important to have for these exchanges.
314  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Exodus + n.exchange = SCAM! 1 BTC Stolen! on: April 08, 2024, 02:40:07 AM
It appears that this is a similar situation with casinos and sportsbooks where we should go through KYC first to know if our identification cards and documents are accepted by the service before making our first deposit. This will be certainly true if the exchange is something not very familiar to the community. What is this n.exchange? I have not heard of this.
315  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ripple, Developer Behind XRP Ledger, Enters Stablecoin Fray vs. Tether, USDC on: April 08, 2024, 01:08:53 AM
It's not just the ETH blockchain from what the article says they will be on the XRP chain too.
I can see that working for them due to fact that a lot of people have one or the other. Not sure how many users have both, so it might get their stablecoin in more hands.
As to it being NEEDED, do we really need another stable coin? I just don't see it.

-Dave

They won't stop, soon crypto will lose its meaning as stable coins take over everything unless, someone does something to stop this mad shit. There are 2 stable coins in the list of 10 biggest coins by market cap on CMC. (USDT and USDC) and I believe BUSD (binance USD) was there too before binance decided to shut it down (which was very good news, thanks to the SEC I guess)

XRP itself is shady as fuck, and why would anyone get any of their filthy product is beyond my understanding. Is XRP even crypto? Wasn't it a premined centralized database?

And you say it will be available on the XRP chain, mind blowning. Scamscamscam

I very much disagree because stablecoins are not the cryptocoins that represent the whole cryptospace. Also, if that is your argument on crypto losing its meaning, I reckon that there might be a more dangerous example of this. The bitcoin spot ETF and the new mayor of bitcoin might be the one to make everyone witness that crypto is losing its meaning. It will not be anymore living under the principles from which it was created and developed. It will be more about the market and speculation.
316  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Jake Paul to Fight Mike Tyson in Live Netflix Boxing Event - July 20 on: April 07, 2024, 04:36:05 AM
This is the latest interview of Mike Tyson regarding his fight,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3xInUaRVhY

And he said that this is a real fight, he said that he is scared to death fighting, but he puts it like something that he uses this as motivation, his fear. Yeah, we might find it weird, but there are individuals who thrive in this kind of fear environment.

He is very much different from the younger Tyson that the older fans have witnessed where he will say during interviews that he will eat the babies of his opponents hehehe. This was his young self who was trying to avoid the fear before the fight. Also, there was another fear that he was mentioned in an interview with Joe Rogan. He said that he is also scared of letting out his animal self. He does not want to be this person that his original trainer Cus D'amato put inside of him. He was trained to become something similar to a killer.



A throwback video of Mike Tyson has emerged. Tyson is seen throwing vicious combinations under the tutelage of legendary trainer Cus D’Amato. Cus, considered by Tyson as a father figure, was instrumental in ‘Iron’ Mike’s career. Tyson, renowned for his insane power and combinations, is set to make a return after nearly 15 years out.

"I was petrified when I was alone with him. If he called me – ‘Mike, I need to talk to you’ – I didn’t feel good going over to him. That’s when he’d start giving me his detailed criticisms of my fights. My knockout ability is through Cus D’Amato telling me repetitiously over and over again to do this movement and to punch with this type of bad intentions. And just to have ferociousness and mean intentions whenever you throw punches and stuff. And try and punch through your opponent, not at him. It was some nasty stuff that I would never tell my kids to do”. Said Mike Tyson to Gq magazine.


Source https://www.essentiallysports.com/boxing-news-it-was-some-nasty-stuff-i-wouldnt-tell-my-kids-to-do-mike-tyson/

Mike Tyson today is apparently a calmer and more human person, nothing like that Mike of the past, has age and life experience done him any good?

Generally, when time passes, people start to value other things, they start to think about a better future, being a better person... It seems that Mike went down that path... That's good.

Yes, is not the young Mike Tyson anymore, however, in his interview with Joe Rogan he implied that if he trains in boxing seriously, this bad person in him who wants to eat his opponents babies will come out. He was also telling Joe Rogan that there might be something wrong with him because in the boxing ring he said that his penis becomes hard if he is punching his opponents. This might imply that there is too much testosterone in his body because he might be using steroids or a psychological disorder. I wish we witness the bad person come out against Jake Paul heheehhe.
317  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Two Kucoin Founders accused of violating anti-laundering laws etc. on: April 07, 2024, 03:54:13 AM
This is actually an indication of not using centralised exchanges. Because that's how exchanges anytime would collapse. They have to deal with different kinds of funds, so accusing an exchange for money laundering is pretty easy. However, though Kucoin said funds are safe and do not impact exchanges, there is still risk. I have actually withdrawn all the funds from Kucoin. I'm not going to use any big funds on Kucoin anymore until they fix everything normal.

I very much agree! Use DeFi if you want to trade or swap cryptocoins and tokens.

On the question if Kucoin will collapse or not, I speculate that it might occur very much similar to Binance where they are forced by regulators in each jurisdiction to cooperate. Also if their founders will become targets of the American government, they might also be forced to pay a large settlement fee hehehe. However, this is not like a similar case to CZ and Binance.

318  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Devin Haney vs Ryan Garcia on April 20 on: April 06, 2024, 04:19:52 AM
This is not about Pitbull being afraid. This is about Pitbull challenging Ryan Garcia, however, what is this challenge about? Is this about money and popularity? Ryan Garcia is not a champion hehehe. King Ry should be the boxer who is issuing these challenges but why is Pitbull treating King Ry like a champion? Pitbull should challenge Teofimo Lopez or Subriel Matías, I reckon.

In any case, on Haney vs. King Ry, I predict that this might not go to the decision. Haney is very much stronger in this higher weight division. King Ry with his mental instability might surrender before round 9.

I guess so, despite Ryan not anymore a champion but his popularity still stay. Every champion wants to fight him to gain more money and I'm sure the same thing happened in the mind of Pitbull. But before that will happen, maybe let's wait for the outcome of the fight (Garcia vs Haney), because if haney will win, what Pitbull wants might be given but if Ryan will wn, you know this guy would ask more and will challenge a fighter that could help him a bigger paycheck, I'm think Ryan vs Tank II, is it possible?

However, how long can King Ry stay very popular? I reckon after more losses, he will not be a good choice as an opponent for boxers who want to become big names in the sport.

On King Ry being a champion vs. Tank Davis 2, I agree! However, King Ry should not make a stupid agreement with a hustler like Tank Davis. Also King Ry will not win vs. Haney. It should be Devin Haney vs. Tank heheheh.

@Rampagoe004. However, similar to what @Cointrader has mentioned, uncle Dana is a professional blackjack player. He earned the millions that he lost on the blackjack games he has played. This is not something similar to someone who took money from his company to lose everything in the casino hehehehe. If he is very good in blackjack, we can also be quite certain that he has earned back the money and earned more after this. You reckon he should support and donate to fighters from his blackjack earnings hehehehe?

@zasad@. On the rulers who are using their political connections to put their people into certain government positions is not a conspiracy theory. This is reality.

On uncle Gary's retirement on 2026 as SEC chairman, this is also not a conspiracy theory. His term will end on 2026. However, on Larry Fink on suggesting his candidate for uncle Gary's replacement, this is speculation. His candidate may or may not be chosen but we can be quite certain there will be rulers who will suggest their candidates hehehehe.
