Ne, nije ih bilo previse. Ali sada kada nakon 5 sezona, tisucama boraca, stotinama grofova, desetinak kraljeva i koji car dodje do jednog crnog grofa (i to jos zena, mozes mislit) ovde se reagira ko da je kraj sveta...
Nije kraj svijet, ali ovdje se to ne radi iz umjetnickih razloga nego iz ocite agende koju Netflix odavno gura. Meni uopce ne smetaju jaki zenski likovi (Ripley iz Aliena mi je jedan od najdrazih filmskih likova uopce i savrsen primjer kako se da napraviti jak zenski lik bez forsiranja) ali smetaju mi ovakve pizdarije.

Daj zamisli neku Netflix seriju o plemenu Apacha iz 16 stoljeca, i onda da se svide vecem krugu ljudi, ubace neku bljedoliku zensku plave kose kao poglavicu plemena, a back story je da su joj kao dijetetu pobili familiju, i uzeli za roblje, a ona se eto uzdigla i sada komandira cijelom plemenu. Pa to bi bila sprdnja na kvadrat.

Ista stvar je i u Dune; Denis Villeneuve je samoproglaseni feminist (lol) tako da ne cudi da je za ulogu Liet Kynes uzeo crnkinju, dok je svakome tko je ikad procitao knjigu jasno da je Liet opisan dijematralno suprotno ( visoki mrsavi muskarac svijetle kose, sa bradom). U Lynchovoj verziji ga je glumio Max Von Sydow a u ovoj novoj Sharon Duncan-Brewster, guglajte da vidite razliku. Cheesy



Sada se ide praviti film sa nepoznatim glumcima sto je ok, novi su, svi su jednom bili novi, ali ih se dijeli na boju koze tocnije prisiljava se kompaniju da uzmu nekoga iz manjine, kako je to posteno neznam ni je, a sumnjam da i oni znaju, tako imate jednu tuku, onu lupitu, zenska u 5 filmova dobije 108 nominacija i 98 nagrada.
Situacija po tom pitanju ce biti samo gora. Kad mislis da ne moze gore nego sto je sada, Akademija je stisnula gas i ovo ce od 2025 biti uvjeti za dobiti nominaciju za najbolji film. Totalno suludo, sto ce naravno dovesti do dodatnog snizavanja kvalitete filmova.

Ti znaš da je CZ Binance skoro pa suvlasnik i davno je uložio u FTX, tako da će to biti nešto slično kao u Binance, možda isti provajder kartica.
Naravno da znam, ali prije cca godinu dana je Sam Bankman-Fried otkupio nazad dionice FTXa od Binanca tako da su se oni razdvojili. A da ce biti nesto slicno, to svakako, nema tu neke mudrosti i izmisljanja tople vode.


Razlika može biti da se koristi njihov FTX token ili neki njihov stable coin, ali prednost FTX-a su dosta manje ili čak besplatne naknade za neke coine.
 
A biti ce sigurno tako neka fora, hodlanje njihovog tokena da se ostvari cashback. Kao sto rekoh, sto vise konkurencije to bolje za nas korisnike, nek samo dolaze.
3803  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: SAFFU SCAM! Team changed tokens amount at the middle of the bounty campaign on: March 09, 2022, 12:24:55 PM

Update : SAFUU update contact them directly we transferred the spreadsheet to them. We are no longer running that bounty.
If you and your team did a proper research on SAFUU CEO, you would never even even accept to run their bounty so all this mess could have been avoided.

So, person behind Safuu is Bryan Legend, but his real name is Bryan Seiler and he is a serial scammer, so this is not his first rodeo. Before Safuu, he had 3 projects that failed miserably: Fitrova, Tagz and Clever DeFi. Feel free to google his name and the projects he was behind. As a matter of fact, there is even a scam accustaion thread here on bitcointalk, that mentions him  and his previous endevours TAGZ is a SCAM


all of a sudden they changed the bounty pool to 2000 tokens.
By the time they finish with this, these 2000 tokens will be worthless. They might have as well keep it at 20000 as in the end its going to be the same thing.



Well, the project were offering a grand 382,945.41% APY in 12 months, that's 3,829 times of your initial investment in one year, I wouldn't be so surpised if they have something fishy like a rug-pull build up being cooked in their kitchen.
This will of course end up badly, how can someone believe that kind of APY is sustainable in any longer period than a couple of weeks/months. This has scam written all over it and I am surprised to see experienced bounty managers being part of a shitty project like this.

Razumijem da mozda iz "Hrvatske" perspektive je malo cudno vidjeti crnkinju kao vladara Kattegata, ali iz "Severo-Zapadne" perspektive absolutno nije.
E pa upravo se o tome radi, gura se agenda koja prolazi upravo u tom krugu, koji je pun woke/sjw/soyboy ekipe koja brije na te inclusive spike, na ustrb logike i zdravog razuma. Sanse da crnkinja bude Jarl tom vremenskom periodu i na tim prostorima su nikakve, ali koga boli briga za povijest i zdrav razum dok god se nitko ne osjeca zakinut. U slijedecem spinoffu ocekujem azijske transgender nonbinary pansexual vikinge kad se Netflix bude sirio na kinesko trziste.

Da se razumijemo, jednako bi mi smetalo da gledam seriju o Zulu ratnicima pa da vidim neku plavusu nordijskog tipa kako je tamo neki vodja.

S ozbirom da sam i originalne Vikinge prestao gledati nekad pocetkom 5 sezone jer je serija osla ukurac, mislim da cu i ovo preskociti jer iz iskustva (cast spinoff iznimkama) moze biti samo gore.

Evo i FTX napokon odlucio da izdaje svoju kripto debitnu karticu, informacija za sada ima jako malo.

https://card.ftx.com/

S obzirom da  Binance karticu koristim skoro na dnevnoj bazi i radi dosta dobro, jako me zanima na koji nacin FTX planira "navuci" ljude da umjesto Crypt0.com/ Coinbase/Binance kartice koriste njihovu. Morat ce tu biti dobar cashback u pitanju te visoki limiti za potrosnju jer je Binnace kartica dosta dobra po tom pitanju: za prilicno solidnih 2% cashbacka moras imati 1 BNB sto je sica a dnevni limit za potrosnju je 8700 eura. Najveci minus Binance kartice je mali ATM limit od samo 290 eura dnevno te se nadam da ce FTX tu biti dosta konkurentniji.

It was one important missing bit in the competition against Binance. Now their offers are (at least in my eyes/on what interests me) on similar level.
Same thing here, I was waiting for FTX to finally release their card as that is the only thing that keeps me using Binance.


I'll follow the FTX card story, I'm very curious if they can make it better and more reliable than Binance's, while keeping it (almost) for free. It is possible.
To be honest, they will have to offer quite a lot of things to make people leave Binance card as at the moment it's pretty reliable. The biggest issue for me when it comes to Binance card is daily ATM withdrawal limit, 290 euro just ain't enough. If FTX increases that, offer cashback that's easy to obain (1-2 % would be good enough for me) and be as reliable as Binance card is, it will be a no brainer for me. Either way, it's definitely good news as competition is good for us users.

That's a great find, Rikafip. I'm sure this will impact their plans at least a little.
Well, I do hope that I at least messed up their plans about having bounty campaign here as I am pretty sure that no decent manager with touch this with a ten foot pole. They might find someone willing to do the job nevertheless as forum doesn't lack those willing to promote scams in exchange for a couple of $.


They did act in line with their name, after all, their ticker was named "CLON".  Grin
Haha my thought exactly when I saw that they took some stuff from Mintdice.


Regarding their team, I believe you're right. Neither Google, nor Facebook, nor Twitter, nor LinkedIn find anyone named "Mark Deltan". I have yet to meet a CEO of a company who hasn't left a digital footprint online. No matter how small. Even if he lived under the rock all this time, there would have been mentions of it somewhere.
Yeah, names do sound too generic and as I said, that was the the first suspicious thing that I noticed, that made me check it a little bit deeper. Regarding CEO, his Instagram account is private and I don't plan to create the account and follow him just so I am sure whether he is real or not as at this moment it wouldn't change anything even if he  exists.

Coingecko je po meni najbolji od svih alternativa i ne dobija novac od CZ Binance kao CMC.
Meni je Coingecko u svakom slucaju bolji nego CMC i prvi mi je izbor kad idem provjeravati cijene, ali ako cemo iskreno, CMC je bolji od kad ga je preuzeo Binance, barem kad je u pitanju ranking mjenjacnica. Prije preuzimanja, na vrhu su redovno bili smeca tipa HitBTC i P2PB2B dok sada takvi ne mogu ni prismrditi vrhu sto je ipak pozitivna promjena, manje ljudi ce najebati.

What happened; as the title says, Cashlon took content from s everal different sources (MintDice, Fasttoken, Investopedia) without adding it to the reference. While it's trie that they did include some less important ones, they decided not to include rest of it as it would be obvious that they written very little by themselves and that majority of their whitepaper material is taken from others.

So, lets start with some proof from their whitepaper. On the left side you can see Cashlon WP and on the right side content from Mintdice blog






Screenshot on the left is comparison between Cashlon and Fasttoken medium article. As you can see, they are unable to write even this kind of project explanation and have to take it from someone else.




There is bunch of other copy/paste examples, especially from Investopedia that weren't referenced at all. Here are few exampes:

There’s one certainty in gambling—nothing is left to chance. The house always comes out the winner in the end. A casino is a business, not a charitable organization throwing free money away. Like any other business, it has a business model in place designed to ensure its profitability. No matter what game you choose to play, the odds of the casino winning your money are greater than the odds of you winning the casino’s money. That’s because all casino games are designed to provide the house with a built-in edge, diminishing the chances and size of potential payouts.

Many people who are aware of the house edge still don’t really grasp its implications for their bankrolls. They believe that the roughly 5% edge the house has at the roulette table means that they can reasonably expect to sit down with $100, gamble for a few hours, and the odds are that they will only lose about $5. They fail to understand that the house edge doesn’t apply to their starting bankroll, but to the total amount they wager. The longer you play, the greater the odds are that the result of your play will match up with the house edge. A player may well be ahead in the short term, but over the long haul the house edge will eventually grind them down into unprofitability.

But all this really started when I check their website and saw their team. I've busted quite a few scams and saw enough fake team members so I can regognise when something fishy is going on. Maybe I am just too paranoid, but all these names sound to me like they were taken from some name generator. Add on that no social media profiles (all they have really are links to their Tg profiles, expect CEO who has Instagram account as well).





Given the evidence, I think it's pretty much obvious what is going on here; another lazy scammy altcoin project. Looking at the comment made by OP (@julerz12) they planned to have a bounty campaign as well to spread this scam further which I  kinda doubt it will happen now.

Yet another scammer attempting to profit from this ongoing situation by creating an useless token that will allegedly be used to help the people but we all know that he will only help himself with donated money. They invested a little bit more effort though than a regular scammer just sharing address as they launched the website as well, to appear more legit.

So you mean that this scam exchange is developed by him ?
Yep, its the same group of people that are behind that website and those that are advertising it.


Not many people are that much capable. Even i don't know how to make an exchange website. If he had so much talent that he can develop his own exchange, why not he use his skills in positive manner  Huh
What you have to understand is that this Top-Trade-X is not an exchange but just a scammy website, which is immensely easier to create than an actual exchange. The sole purpose of that website is to lure you into depositing your own money (after they send some numbers to your account) it usually doesn't have any other typical exchange functionality like exchanging currencies, trading etc. Another thing that they might do is to ask you for KYC and that way they can use your documents for scamming others.
3813  Economy / Services / Re: ✅✅✅Easy job! Urgently need a person to work.✅✅✅ on: March 08, 2022, 07:16:51 AM
He didn't ask me to deposit anything but i did not agree to work from him.
No worries, once you try to withdraw the money from that scam exchange, then they would ask you to deposit something in order to confirm your legitimacy, or whatever bullshit reason they come up with.


What if he had that hacked account and he wanted to transfer the fund to me and i may get into trouble  Huh
What you have to understand is that there are no funds there, its a scam and he is behind that "ëxchange" so all he would do is transfer some numbers to your account.

I would probably get on the nearest plane and fly to the main office of the exchange, because the amount is quite large, if the correspondence does not work out, then there are lawyers who can help, consult a good lawyer and everything will work out.
Heh, it's no so easy as you may think. Exchanges have TOS written in a way that they can always find some bullshit reason why they take your money so good luck with  getting your money back via lawsuit, in a foreign country. By the way, I am not saying that people shouldn't fight if they are 100% certain that they haven't done anything wrong and can afford it, but in vast majority of cases you will just end up wasting even more money.


This case just surprises me.
Surprising? Not at all. I would say business as usual when it comes to leaving large amount of money on centralized exchange.

To refine what I meant, I was trying to say I think Dune is more of a technical win candidate then an overall winner on the acting or story side of the Oscars.  Sometimes they win both but this time I think we could see more of a split
Yeah I don't expect Dune to win may Oscars (of any) outside tehnical ones. Unfortunately that's how it goes when it comes to sci-fi movies.


We have come a long way in budgets, I remember Titanic was gigantically expensive at 200m. 
Titanic was the most expensive movie for something like 10 years and it really stood out back in those days. It paid off though as it was the highest grossing movie until Avatar came.


 I always look at the ratio of the rough return they got, this doesn't exclude extra such as franchise rights for models/toys possibly etc. which can be massive.
Of course, there is a lot of money to be made from dvds, blurays, streaming rights, toys etc. One thing to keep in mind is that when we see that some movie grossed let's say $500 million, that doesn't mean that all that money goes to them as you have to deduct percentage that cinemas take and others in that chain so realistically what's left is maybe 50% of the box office, at best.

You can simply have binance card or other alt project based CC to make the payments. I don’t know what difference it would make after they launch their own acceptance criteria.
Well, there is a difference: in case of using Binance card, you have to have funds on Binance meaning you are not in the real control of your crypto, no matter how reliable/reputable Binance is. Don't get me wrong, I like their card and I am using it on the regular basis, but I would prefer if there is some better way to sepend my crypto without keeping my crypto in other man's hands.


How does this gonna work? You're still required to have some FIAT in case of returns, defects and etc.
Yeah that's a good question. People like eBay as they have good customer support & they feel safe buying there so would be interesting it to see how would they solve that issue. Honestly, I don't accept eBay accepting BTC directly peer to peer anytime soon. If/when it happens, first it will be through some 3rd party payment processor.

Currently, BTC has 719% APY (https://wowswap.io/earn) which makes it a very attractive proposition to lend especially in the current volatile markets.

You might have created wowswap thread in the altcoin section instead as point of this thread is obviously to promote than altcoin project and not to look for the best place earn BTC passively. But let's say that you really want to give someone else your BTC and earn passive income from it, probably the safest option (more precisely least risky) is Celsius with ~5% APY on BTC. I know couple of people that are using it and are quite satisfied with it but I personally wouldn't trust them with my BTC.

Anyway, expect your thread to be moved to altcoin section where it belongs.

i can say Dune has been done good as i watched this movie also. the producers of this movie are not stingy to create a good film
Dune's budget has been 165 million dollars which sound a lot at first, but in reality it's not even among top 100 most expensive movies of all time so kudos to Denis Villeneuve for making a movie that looks way more expensive than it was. So far Dune grossed approximately 400 million dollars which is a decent number. If there as no covid, I am sure that number would be at least 50% higher, but even this is enough to get a sequel which is already in production and should be released next year.


Dune could win the production oscars for professionalism but I think Belfast will have the better chance of best film, direction which are considered the bigger categories overall.   Im not sure we have one film which sweeps the board as sometimes happens, I see more fragmentation this time around.
There is no  "production oscars for professionalism". When it comes to producers, they get Best Picture Oscar.
