That is awesome to hear that you nailed a scammer but what i did not understand is that how you got scammed and how he got the coins from escrow. I understand that you were using localbitcoins and how come you got scammed when the coins will be sent as an escrow and until you say that you got the funds how come he was able to convince you to complete the trade.

This is not even a big surprise as prime dice always attracts huge rollers all the time, even when the price of BTCitcoin was hovering at an all time high valuation you would see hundreds of coins waged.

And to give a sneak peak of the past



These are two rollers one is wagging 40BTC taken on February 2017 and one lost 100BTC January 2017 in a matter of minutes, i have a ton of screen captures i took while i was very much active and was rolling heavily and these are my memories and a curse as i too lost a ton of coins during that period . It was fun while it lasted and happy to see changes and new players.

When India was able to score close to 350 runs i thought it will be a tough chase in the absence of Kane Williamson and yet they were able to chase the score easily even though they lost some wickets during the final few overs, it is good to see these kind of performance because the odds were getting lower for India as they were dominating and this defeat will have some good odds in the next match by the book makers .

This is the issue with the opponent, he is an up coming talent and Teofimo Lopez never faced any worthy contenders and now he is booked against arguably the best boxers in the world and i hope they will change their plans and rather build the young fighter rather than feeding to Vasyl Lomachenko.

Vasyl Lomachenko will be the betting favorite and the odds will be heavily lopsided and hopefully they will book another fight rather than going with the youngster.

The UFC is pushing for the rematch against Khabib and i am sure Dana White and company will come up with something to satisfy Khabib and take the rematch. The main reason Khabib is refusing to rematch is because of the huge drama and the negativity surrounding the pre fight drama Conor might create.

Realistic possibility for Conor McGregor is that he will be going against Nate Diaz for the trilogy and that will be another huge pay per day for Conor.

If you are following the news then you will understand why the analyst came up with the verdict, the US government is auctioning off 4000BTCitcoin which is worth more than $37 million on February 18 and if that happens then we might see a hard dump in the market and considering the date is public many people might sell off their coins thinking to get back in when the market goes down and if that happens then the market could go down.

The expectation was that Hardik Pandya will be selected for the Test series in New Zealand but now it is clear that he is not fully fit and the selectors does not want to rush him back as he might injure himself again and that is a good decision as he is still recovering from his back surgery and the IPL will give a good platform to prepare for the World Cup and even i wont be surprised if he will wait till the IPL to return to competitive cricket.

The best bowling India can have is Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammed Shami and Jasprit Bumrah and since Jadeja is in the squad we might not see the Kuldeep Chahal combination and if Hardik Pandya comes back then they might drop Bhuvneshwar Kumar and add an all rounder.

It was a complete change in attitude in the shorter format and they were able to chase the score with the help of inform batsman Quinton de Kock and Bavuma missed his century by 2 runs and as long as the top order scores they are a formidable team in the shorter format.

India is playing really well and KL Rahul and Shreyas Iyer in the crease and India will be looking to post over 300 runs and New Zealand is dropping catches in the outfield which will not help them in any way. Kane Williamson is not playing for New Zealand and hence it will be difficult for them to chase a huge total, hopefully it will be an interesting match till the end.

I am really surprised to see England struggle against South Africa as they lost 6 wickets for 170 runs and Shamsi bowled a really economic spell and picked up 3 crucial wickets, i was expecting England to dominate the match but South Africa bowled really well and if they could pick up the rest of the wickets and fold them to a low score then South Africa can win the match.

Loosing Rohit Sharma is a big blow but they can now give opportunities to other players and Prithvi Shaw might replace Rohit Sharma along with KL Rahul. Just two ODI and i am expecting a much better performance from New Zealand and hopefully they will challenge in the longer format.

Sharmaji plays the shots effortlessly and he can score huge sixes with ease but not sure about the cute part   .

I was amused by your theory, how you are certain that the value of FIAT currency will decrease while the price of crypto will increase. I would like to know your theory which has no logic economically and financially we will see how the market will get impacted when countries start implementing rules and regulations for the crypto market space and how our privacy is at stake while the authorities will shut down anything that gives the users privacy, so there is a big juggle coming up and here you are thinking that fiat value will decrease  .

Jon Jones have the biggest advantage against all the fighters with his 84.5 inch reach which is really huge and only Stefan Struve who is 7 feet tall have that reach and when you have that kind of reach advantage against every opponent he has the luxury to measure the range and that usually ends up in eye pokes and one of the biggest advantage of Jon Jones is how he is able to measure the opponent and these eye pokes happen in the first round most of the time because he is studying the opponent in the first round and when he measures and understands the opponent then there is literally nothing you can do against Jon Jones. Dominick Reyes is a fast starter and he will flurry the moment the bell rings and that is the only opportunity he has to win against Jon Jones.

The main issue in this series for New Zealand is that the middle order is failing to produce runs, the openers always gave them a solid quick start but they fail to capitalize on that start and score a huge total and on one time they were able to score above 200 runs they were short of runs considering the way in which they started the innings and in that match India chased that total and if they want to pose any challenge they need to post a score above 200 runs and since they are experimenting with the bench strength they might win the match and save face to avoid the white wash.

Even i do not under estimate any prediction as i did not anticipate a rally like that when the market soared to almost $20k and this is the only realistic prediction i have seen till now as the rest of the prediction says that the market will soar to unimaginable heights which i am not expecting anytime soon but i will wait and see how long the market could rally before booking my profit .

When they saw Test matches ending in three days the ICC board thought that having a 4 day match would be great rather than having the regular 5 days and after the proposal many matches ended in the final day and some of the matches that would have ended in a draw had results and with this in mind i am sure they will rethink about that proposal and they should plan to make more day night Test matches rather than reducing the days.

Jon Jones introduced oblique kick to MMA which will hyper extend the opponents knee and hence the opponent will think twice will making an attack, his fight IQ is really high, all the opponents freezes when they enter the cage with him simply because he will not allow the opponent to think, if you look at his past fights you will see when the opponent makes a move forward he will start the attack and that will make the opponent neutralize their attack and that is the brilliance of Jon Jones.

Even in the last fight against Thiago Santos he refused to take the opponent down and finish the fight even when his corner was pleading with him to take him down during the fight, not sure about his mentality on why he wants to beat the opponent on their game and the judges gave him a split decision because of that mentality.

In the Heavyweight division he might face the real challenge against big punchers like Francis Ngannou and that will be a huge fight or even Stipe Miocic and Daniel Cormier is a huge challenge in the Heavyweight division.

Again the final over jitters for New Zealand, 7 runs to win in the final over and the first ball they lost the wicket of Ross Taylor, if we see a tie in this and another super over it would be fun, New Zealand can still win the match as they have the batsman to finish the match and register the first win of the series.
The next ball they scored a boundary, now 3 runs of 4 balls.

Update: Another run out, now 3 balls 3 runs. India is fighting for the win. It is incredible.
Another wicket gone, now 2 runs to win in the last ball  .

Damn another super over. What is New Zealand doing   .

Super over:
India already dropped 2 catches which is terrible but both were difficult chances and now they lost one wicket.

Update: India need 14 runs to win the super over.

Since there is a trade war going on it is possible that they will do things like that but this is not a huge stash of counterfeit currency and the best part is that they were able to seize it before distribution and these small denomination will always pass through once it starts circulating and may be that is the reason they counterfeited the lowest denomination.

If you are looking for conspiracy theories Russia is accusing the US even for the new outbreak of Corona virus and they call it the new bio warfare to destabilize the economy which is already hammered by trade restrictions and sanctions and $900K seized is not a huge amount to destabilize the US economy and since they were able to identify counterfeit currencies they will be vigilant .

As i said for earlier it is easier for circulation as people will not carefully scrutinize a dollar bill but if the denomination is higher then the chances of getting identified is easier.

The problem with Tim Southee is that he is not varying his pace and not experimenting with his bowling as he always stick to his stock ball and in the shorter formats if you need to be successful you need to have some variety with varying pace

Shreyas Iyer and even Shivam Dube can clear the ropes but to go out to bat and start swinging is a difficult task and even Rohit Sharma was not able to time the ball when he faced but the last two balls he got it covered. Super over is a tricky one and that is the reason i said India was lucky that New Zealand missed the run out chance of Rohit Sharma in the super over and hence they lost. If they lost one wicket then the complete equation changes.

It is not that amusing as the virus that started in China has already spread to over 18 countries and it is a deadly virus and if it is not controlled properly it will reach your neighborhood sooner than you can expect and it is a global emergency right now and if something like that happens that threatens everyone then the economics will get affected and that will reflect in the stock market. The drop in the US market was recovered in the end but these types of global Pandemic will have an affect on the market and there is no cover up .
