I don't think that NFTs are real store of value because they have no liquidity and volume, how can one say that NFT is a real store of value when you can only sell if anyone is willing to buy,
Who said NFTs are a real store of value to begin with?
NFTs are just another phase of hyped shitcoins that will die out with time and when this happens, people will realize how silly they way to waste valuable ETH or BNB to buy this NFTs

Agreed.  The fact that pictures of apes that take 5 minutes to make sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars should be a top signal.  They are worthless and serve no purpose.  Stop it with the art claim.  All of this nft stuff is about getting someone else to pay more for it then you did.  Its a classic pyramid scheme.  And once the slide starts it will end of being like a bank run where no one will be able to cash out.  Gonna get ugly soon.

Great another useless token based on a dog.  Who would be stupid enough to even throw a single dime on this dumpster fire?  What's next bill gates cow coin, Zuckerberg rabbit coin.  Rediculous how all this is going, sad really.

Suddenly made me wonder what the Trail Blazers are trying to achieve in this trade.
Acquiring Eric Bledsoe, Justise Winslow, Keon Johnson and a 2025 second-round draft pick isn't too bad of a deal. If they couldn't maximize Powell's output for the team, why not try something new? That trade also made Blazers under the luxury tax threshold. The new players that will most likely be used for rotation might be a gamble but that was still a good business move.

I think it's mostly to clear the luxury tax threshold and probably get another player. For now we can't say who wins in this trade. But if Clippers can maximize Powell right away then we can say that it was a good trade for them. Portland is on the 10th, with a losing streak, so they are in the borderline to not make the playoffs and most likely going to look for the next season for another rebuild and hopefully convince Lillard to stay with them.

That's the scenario I'm seeing, they will probably rebuild and I think it will be best possible if they will let go of Lillard, try to experiment with a new player that could lead the team, Lillard is the most valuable asset of the team, for sure they can acquire someone that is as good or better than him in a trade, and probably that will solve the problem with chemistry or whatever it is.

I agree they need to can the whole thing and start over but they made it clear they want to still build around him.  Possible the Blazers are trying to clear cap to bring in a star player in the off-season who knows.  The way they are structured they need to nail the draft and get a superstar that way.

I couldn't watch those games, but... with the return of AD I believe the Lakers improved a lot.
Anthony Davis got 17 rebounds and Monk scored 29 points!
I believe that if the Lakers continue with this performance, I think they can go to the playoffs easily!
But first we will need to analyze whether they will maintain this consistency.


It was also due to the return of Lebron James, it's his first game after missing some games and he really showed his leadership in this game. Though they could not dominate the Knicks, what's important is they won during the crucial time in the OT and that's what they need to maintain and put do some consistency as they'll have more close games in the future for sure.

They beat a terrible knicks team at home.  Took a comeback and overtime to win.  The Knicks are 12th in the East right now.  The Lakers are going to get routed if they make the playoffs.  No way can they beat top teams throwing that garbage on the court.  Russ needs to be benched immediately.  He is single handedly losing games for the Lakers.  They were only favored by 4 at home to a terrible knicks team and barely covered thanks to OT.

As the year 2021 is coming to an end what is the future for the new rave of the moment NFTs which seems to have taken over the cryptocurrency market in 2021 as the new year 2022 is coming and a lot of projects coming up what do we expect to see in the coming year will NFTs continue to drive or a new wave is coming?

Tons of more scams and terrible "art" that is hype inflated.  And then at a certain point most people will lose their "money" as the bottom falls out.  The art that is out there in nft land is awful.  Few and far between with people who actually spend time.  It's a cash grab fad, that's it.

Poverty is here around the world:
Solution is new currency as old currencies dont serve us anymore.
There is not enough dollars or other fiat currencies or not enough ways to get your hands on currency problem is those only have who born in some wealthy noble family they only have and their kids with inheritance instagram kind of kids who just knows how to spend money but thats it but there is many hardworking people who can do better with money other then just spend on useless things.
The dollars are printed alot but in your hands or my hands.
Only solution can be let them keep their useless euros or dollars and we will have new currency.

Real solution is new currency urgently but not btc as limited supply will create more wealth gaps.

Xlm stellar could be good one

Limited supply?  Supply is one of those most misconstrued thing in crypto.  It's divisible!  You don't need to have 1 whole bitcoin.  As prices go up fractions of a coin will assume wealth.  Iran if all you are looking at is supply someone can clone bitcoin or really any coin in less than a day that would have an insane amount of supply.  What does that do though.  What's the point lom.

1 week left until trade deadline.  Clippers just scooped up Norman Powell great move on their end.  Once kawhi and PG are back Norman will provide a good scoring punch.  And sadly I think the Knicks need to break up the team.  Get what they can for some of the vets.  Give the young guys some run and try to hit the draft and free agency hard over the next couple years.  Lost season...

Fantastic move.

Bledsoe has an expiring contract and is not a great fit for any team due to his inefficient play. Powell and Covington are great 3-point shooters, and are way better than any of the players the Clippers gave up.

I saw a lot of trade grades for this particular transaction and everyone has gave the Clips an A. Jerry West strikes again with his genius.

Yeah I'm a big fan of Norman Powell, excited to see what he can do in the playoffs.  Clips struck gold on this trade.  These are the types of trades the Knicks have to make.  Nothing crazy or splashy but moves that insta upgrade your team.

Wasn't there like 3 years left on Powell's contract as well? Crazy how well the Clips did.

I'm just not sure exactly what Portland is trying to do now though because it seems like they are really lost. They've traded away their best player outside of Lillard and McCollum as well as a centrepiece to their defense. What's next?

Are they just trying to save money from exceeding the cap? If so, I think this is a terrible move.

Seems as though this was a move to set up another.  They want to resign Simmons and they get a rookie contract in Keon joglhnson hoping he hits I guess.  Portland needs to do something like right now for Dame.  Dude has been wasted out in Portland his whole career.  Wish they would ship him to the Knicks 😅
3228  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2020-2021 betting on: February 05, 2022, 10:05:36 PM
The Lakers will also play tomorrow on their home against the NY Knicks, seems like they're the underdog this time but I'd rather let this game slide as they're really struggling now especially without LBJ.
Can't trust the Lakers without Lebron, they only won once ever since Lebron was out IIRC. I know the Knicks are struggling as well, but the Lakers looks like more troubled that them so if I will choose, I would go with the Knicks, they are better than the Lakers IMO.
I would rather not gonna touch this game, both are unpredictable and it could end either way. The thing with the Knicks is on their last 3 road games, they lose all 3, so most probably the result will be an "L" too. By the way, seems like there's a line movement of this game, from LA -2, now already at -4, wondering what's the reason behind.

I'm taking the under on this game.  This one has both teams under a hundo written all over it.  Both teams struggle to score and can't score in transition either.  Next I'm taking Bucks-10.5.  The Blazers just stripped some remaining usefull players off their squad they are gon a get crushed tonight.

And last...going hard on okc on the road.  +8 and Sacramento playing without fox.  Sac will probably win but I expect okc to fight this team

Seeing reports today that the Nets have started putting together a trade package for Ben Simmons. Given Harden is sick of the Kyrie situation already and the rules change is killing his career, he’s very motivated to get to Philadelphia where he has lots of close personal ties with ownership and local celebrities. I don’t know how motivated he will be to play basketball in Philadelphia, but he can’t play less than Ben Simmons. I like the trade for Philadelphia. I don’t think they’ll be able to do better than Harden for Simmons.

Well if he get's traded to a city wherein he has a lot of ties then for sure he can play like his days in Houston. But he has to understand that there is also Joel in the Sixers team and he can't be the Alpha in this team. Trae Young and Steph Curry has adjusted to the new rules and even Chris Paul, so I don't think that Harden can't adjust as well. It's that he is not motivated with the Nets right now, specially that they are in a losing streak with KD and the Kyrie situation.

Ofcourse! Who would be happy about that, KD is injured while Irving can only play road games and they lost 7 games in a row while other players aren't consistent. James Harden should make amends so that he could go to the 76ers as it could benefit him and the 76ers because if he continue to play for the Nets then I think he should also give up his dream to win the Finals for the 1st time, also he's aging.
Harden will fit just right, just like CP3.

Would be a terrible trade imo for the Nets.  After next year they can move on from Harden as he only has 1 year left on his contract after this year.  Anyone taking on Simmons is getting locked into what can end up being a terrible contract for 3 plus years.  Given his head space I'm not taking on someone and locking in one of my max spots for someone who just might not want to play ona. Given day/year.  No thanks.

No.  These are all just scams and a way for "developers" take more bitcoin and eth by dropping it on people.  Look at all these coins spikes and then insta dumps.  They are using hype to get people to put money in.  Hitting a 1000x is like hitting the lottery.  Ypu are more than likely to lose your money.  What a terrible name too, Scott token lol.

In the future maybe 2025 the next big thing in crypto won't be what we've make lots of money from like the metaverse, Play2earn NFTS, they will be around but won't be the main focus, it might be web3.0 and other that's not even been acknowledged yet, just saying this because some people are already planning to pack many meme coins and other for the future your expectations might not come true

If you are putting serious money into memes people will eventually lose it all.  They are memes, jokes, even coins like doge will eventually fade away once it stops being "fun" and people move onto some other fad.  Can't believe people actually put money into memecoins honestly.

The XÆA-XII Token (Son of Elon) will be the foundation for investors to buy, sell, and stake NFT's. The XÆA-XII Token will be listed on multiple exchanges for simple transactions and is the genesis for X-Mask Wallet (which will store Tokens and NFT's) and the entire XÆA-XII NFT Platform ecosystem.

Got 3 picks tonight cavs -5.5 on the road think they bounce back after an ugly loss.  Then gimme sixers -1.5 on the road against Dallas.  Embid is levels above everyone right now and I'm riding him.  Then lastly...

Taking the bulls -2.5 hard.  Pacers are without sabonis and broaden.  Watching the injury report but if they are out heavy on the bulls tonight.

I'm really not fascinated by any of the match ups for tonight, but I'm really interested in seeing Ja Morant put up a show at Madison Square Garden, he's scored at least 30 points in each of his last 7 games, so I'm trusting him to get those numbers again tonight.

My Bet: J12 Over 29.5 Points @ 2.15 🥷

gl guys!

Knicks defense sucks tonight so it might happen.  The problem with this bet is the Knicks do play double team defense on him so someone else might blow up.  Also they might blow out the Knicks early which would limit the need for him.  Fournier and big mitch are keeping them barely in it.
3237  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 NBA Season on: February 03, 2022, 12:15:14 AM
Been enjoying watching the young Memphis team play with swagger all year.  Ja is going to be the face of the nba soon enough (pissed the Knicks were one pick short of ja Sad)

Tonight Memphis comes to MSG, would like to see the Knicks stopping messing around and play some inspired basketball.  Winning tonight would go a long way to changing the course of the season.  RJ better be up for this game.  Wild card is quentin grimes keeping Bane and/or ja in check.  Hope thibs starts grimes need his d out there tonight.

I just got done watching some Ja highlights.  I'm really upset that I never went to watch him play vs my alma.  The highlights I was watching was of him tearing my school up - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w5VyE3n3thU .   Dude is such a stud and without question the future of the NBA.  I'm pretty sure at one point I saw that Memphis fans were booing him for going through a rough patch of some sort?! lol...fools.

Hopefully Tommy T and your boys will be able to put up a W for you vs the grizz.  The Knicks are just an odd group.  Look amazing one night and shat the other. 

Yeah they need to bust the team up.  No way they can construct a premium team with a few tweaks.  Julius needs to go as much as I love his toughness.  I super bullish on quentin grimes.  He can guard 4 positions and has a sweet stroke.  Last 10 or so games showing some prowess driving too.  I don't like rj.  He is highly inefficient.  Needs to shoot 20-25 times to score 20 points.  Knicks 1 spot short of ja and even worse 1 spot short of steph Curry his draft year.  Day late dolla short...

At least the giants aren't in hot water... oh wait..

Nevertheless, I'm pretty excited for Superbowl LVI: Cincinnati Bengals vs. Los Angeles Rams. Doesn't that sound great? Even though probably nobody expected this matchup to happen.
It will be an interesting SB no matter how we look at it, both teams have completely different philosophies, the Rams are a win now team, they have mortgaged their future so they could win a SB by trading their first round picks for veteran players which they need to pay now, while the Bengals are a young team with potential to be a contender for years, so lets see which philosophy wins out at the end.


I just saw his tweet, I guess that's all she wrote.  What an amazing, historic career, I'm glad I was around to witness it.
Brady’s reign of terror historical career is finally over, without a doubt as long as football is played he is going to be a point of reference for the sport, he is that important, however now I wonder will the HOF really make him wait for 5 years to get inducted? They need to make an exception and get him on the hall immediately.

Reign of terror lol.  For everyone except the nfc east! Lol.  Go figure crappies division by a long shot.  He beat so many good teams and lost multiple times to the giants and the eagles.  In all honesty I don't know if we will see someone so dominant in that position again in lifetime.  With rules favoring offense and protecting the qb it might be easier but his grip on the position and competitiveness were/are amazing.  Glad to see him go though lol.

That was something that I was wondering myself, if we’ll ever see another Brady. If there is anyone who could match his ridiculous career obviously that’s going to be Patrick Mahomes. Not sure if he can reach 7 super bowl wins though. Brady had more Super Bowls than any franchise, that’s just crazy lol

Yeah I mean records are meant to be broken so I guess we will.  Seems we are going to run into a qb heavy decade with some good young qbs.  The problem is team consistency and health which gets a lot of players especially in football.  The good thing they have going for them is in 5 years there will only be a 3 inch window that you can actually hit the qbs in.  Maybe they will be wearing the red jerseys on GameDay and we get an average of 500 yards a game passing lol.
