I was listening to Mr. Saylor explain as to why it's important for the founder of bitcoin not to move coins. It shows that bitcoin was never meant to be something that was built for profit. However true this is, if coins are moved what are the implications? And if one person holds coins in bitcoin before 2017 doesn't the same person hold coins in BCH? Why would Satoshi want to move coins if he could just move BCH? Asking for a friend.
If the coins were moved it would one prove satoshi is still alive but it wouldn't say anything about its creation. It's estimated that satoshi holds the keys to about 1 million bitcoin which was mine from inception. The fear of if they are moved is that 1 million of bitcoin could be dumped tanking the price I think that's the real reason. |

First off why would you want to. It's not as profitable as others and you need a good amount of the most efficient ASICS with good electricity rates to make it worth your while. And let's say you did have all of that why not just mine bitcoin?

Tomorrow we will see the game 3, let's see if they can still handle the Pacers without OG who had a huge contribution in the game 2 win before he got injured. And as per report, there's even a possibility that Bruson might not play as he was lited as questionable.
It will be a very hard task for Knicks to beat Pacers without OG and Brunson not only because of the home court advantage of Pacers but also they are already in close match when Knicks has strong line-up with the 2 players is active. I doubt that the current Knicks without Brunson can beat a solid Pacers. I think Knicks will still face a difficulty beating Pacers in home court even with OG and Brunson in the court so I think they might use game 3 and 4 for regrouping then focus on the remaining games until their starters come back. Let's wait until the actual game starts. Because I am not sure with all of these reports become a tactic for these teams to make their rival confident that if one of their stars aren't going to play, they will have an advantage. I am not really sure but it seems that it's sort of a mind game to me until the game starts and with that rumored player won't be playing actually entered to the first five.  I’m late to response here but my prediction went well about Knicks can’t keep up with Pacers even with Brunson available and OG is the only one missing. Pacers was lead by Hali properly that creates a lot of opening and at the same time score for himself. Knicks have a good run despite OG absence since DiVincenzo step up and cover for OG yet they fall short since Pacers is too consistent until the end while the Knicks is just too tired for keeping up with Pacers phase. OG will still out for tonight’s match. I’m expecting that this series will be even. I laid off betting this game thankfully. Knicks are just too hurt to keep up here. Can't expect to start precious achuiwa with no one else behind him. Losing mitch, julius and now OG is just too much front court loss. Shame because they had a great year. Health always drives this part of the year unfortunately. |

Got this email 5 days ago:  One of my friends really misses the NFL. He's really jonesing for action, even though we've still got a long ways to go. Betting it all on the Chiefs to win the SB again. /s I thought that these emails were automatically sent out by the leagues, but I guess if they are going out right now, then the league manager probably sent them out ahead of time..which is kind of funny. I can't say I totally blame them, I'm jonesing for some NFL football myself. Been a heck of an offseason for my Bears, and at least as of right now I can pretend as if nothing but great things are ahead for us! If everything falls into place they are gonna have a rocking offense in a couple of years. Can't believe they picked up Keenan Allen, dude is a reception machine. Would have been a nice pickup for the giants. Having a rookie quarterback is always fun because you don't kmwo what you are going to get could change the franchise for 15 years or be another bum lol. |

It's clear that this series is going to be very hard and very close. Again, we saw a very close game and the Thunder lost, perhaps because of their inexperience. They didn't play the right way in the final minutes, making simple turnovers and bad shot choices. Dončić did his best even though he had an injury. P.J. Washington was again the x-factor in this game. Hack-a-Lively didn't work for Thunder, he shot 8/12 from FT line. Game 4 is very important for the Thunder. If they don't win this one, the Mavericks will win the series with the momentum they gained.
I hate that strategy. As a fan it's tough to watch when teams just hack someone back and forth. I remember when they first starting using this on Shaq. Definately worked with him, dude sucked at the line. I also never got that. How can you be that bad from the free throw line when ypu.do this as a job. You literally can spend every day of your offseason practicing how don't you get better? |

Went 1-2 last night need to pocket some money here. Tonight I am taking three bets so far.
Celtics first quarter money line. Think they come out hot from that whooping they took in game 2.
Celtics -7.5, I still think Celtics are just too good for the cavs
And taking the over at 210.5. Cabs aren't all that strong defensively and I think the Celtics come out shooting. Gimme a 119-109 game here.

Another great game. Kyrie never seems to disappoint in the lights. Big game 4 if Dallas goes up 3-1 I can't see okc stringing 3 in a row. Game 4 is almost a must win for okc. Not sure what I expect in the later game here. Cabs shocked me in Boston I didn't see that coming. Got to think Celtics are gonna come out hard. Taking the Celtics money line in the first quarter  |

Early game today, what do you think about Mavs vs. Thunder?
Mavs stole one game and got the home court advantage but Thunder should react today. In Game 2, P.J. Washington played extra, someone has to play extra in this game as well. Because even though Dončić will play, he's still injured and they won't get the full benefit from him.
I'm not betting on the game either way but I'm rooting for the Thunder. I'd like to see the Thunder amd Timberwolves in the conf finals. Would be different and think it would be a great series. Not sure how bad Luka is hurt but obviously if he isn't healthy mavs gonna find it real hard to beat a young athletic okc team. Gonna be a good one either way. Playoffs hasn't dissapointed yet. |

Both series look to be going 6/7 games as both teams down 2-0 took game 3. Always like a good full series instead of a boring blowout but as a knicks fan would have been nice to steal one last night. If OG doesn't come back it's going to be tough for them to pull this series out they just don't have enough healthy bodies. Hole dudes hamstring comes through but those usually take weeks so im not holding my breath. Onto game 4!

The Pacers are currently the huge favorite to win game 3 @1.35 I also think they will win but I'm wondering by how many points? Do you think this is going to be a blowout like a double digit gap? I think the handicap is the best way to bet here and I'm looking at Pacers -7.5 @1.95
I personally like how Jalen is playing right now but I don't think he's fit enough to lead his team to another victory.
Knicks win 125-119 |

It's going to be tough for them. If you can't exchange for it a lot of people will just stay away. Put that with the fact people only are really buying the hot new thing I can't see monero staying around forever. Slowly the old momero crowd won't have any new blood and will soon wither away like a ton of other old school coins.

Took a hard hit with the Celtics, cavs surprised me last night. Tonight I got 3 bets in so far.
Knicks +7.5. I know they are hurting amd their bench is short but I think every one of these games will be close this series, that's a big spread. Taking the fellas.
Added Brunson over 34.5 points. There will be a lot of focus on him but with OG out there will be more shots to be had. He shoukd get up around 30 shots tonight I like his chances of hitting 35+ points
Wolves -3.5 I'm not entirely sold but they looked unstoppable in Denver, can't be any worse at home right? That's a tight spread. Small bet on them because I'd like to see Denver win and extend this series.
Good luck and go knicks.

I watched how he took the leadership on those games and it seems like they trust Brunson so much for every decision he is making on every game in this playoffs, since it is working and they're beating strong opponents like the Pacers, it's better be that way, let him be the leader and let him play his game on his own way but honestly, I want to see how will they manage to play against the Pacers without those two and if they still manage to win, then whoever wins from the series of Celtics and Cavs, they're on trouble with the Knicks for sure.
Brunson is definitely keeping up with the Knicks' expectations, and it would be strange if they didn't trust him and let him realize his potential on the court. However, it's worth noting that if a team relies on just one player, it's not the best strategy, and it's risky, especially in the playoffs. I mean, if Brunson gets injured, the Knicks will be a helpless team.  I mean if anytime loses their best player they pretty much are done. Dallas loses Luka, minn loses edwards, Boston with Tatum, cavs with spida, Denver jokic. All of those teams are going straight home without those players. That's not a hot take. With that being said knicks have to rely on brunson he was fourth in the league in scoring. Why would they change the way they play that got them here? |

I am not really sure but it seems that it's sort of a mind game to me until the game starts and with that rumored player won't be playing actually entered to the first five. OG is definitely out tonight but Jalen Brunson is definitely playing tonight. He finished the game 2 nights ago with 24 points in the 2nd half he is fine. NBA requires teams to list all questionable and probably due to injuries but this is the playoffs, if you can take the court you are playing. No way the Knicks sell these 2 games in Indiana to bring it back tied up. You put your foot on the pedal full bore in the playoffs. JB will likely see 40-44 minutes tonight if it's close. |

Yeah, it was Brunson who lead the team as Julius Randle is out already and who knows he might not be back in New York uniform because the team now looks solid in both offense and defense and working very hard as a team. Because when Randle is playing its more on isolation on him and then outside 3 point shot.
Brunson is really showing phenomenal results this playoffs, and it looks like this guy is in his prime right now. But why do you think Randle won't be back with the Knicks? He has at least one more season on his contract with the Knicks, and it seems to me that he can adapt to the new conditions, i.e., when Brunson is the team leader. Well although Randle has been offered great contract, but after that it was not the Julius Randle that everyone has been expecting of him. And the core team mates around him that time has been traded already and this is a new set of players now and it obvious that it evolves on Jalen Brunson as the new franchise players. So with that, maybe, just maybe the management might think of trading Randle, we have seen that he struggles though this season with the shift of focus to Jalen. And now that he is out because of his injuries, we can say that the team is doing great without him. As long as julius knows the keys of the team belong to JB I wouldn't trade julius. He's a lock for 25/9 lines each year and demands a lot of attention on the block by the defense. With a healthy team once we traded for OG we were 14-2 with the best defense in the league over that time and then julius got injured. No reason not to think that the missing piece was OG. Run it back healthy next year and see what happens. |

1-1 last night. The fellas covered against the Pacers after an injury scare with JB. The injury for a quarter and a half killed my JB points over 37.5. Dude racked up 24 points in the second half but too much time off. Tonight playing it simple
Loading up on Celtics-12.5. This should be a snooz fest until they go on the road.
Not touching the mavs game. Just gonna sit back and enjoy the game no matter who wins.
Good luck and enjoy the games everyone

Well i was expecting a little bit more by the Indiana Pacers on this first two games against New York Knights after they took down a super team like Milwaukee, but well Jalen Brunson is on fire in the New York side, and seems like the pacers needs to find a answer to that to win some game against them. when I saw the first game in which it seemed to me that it was balanced at certain times and at other times it wasn't, then I had the image that in the second game things would be very different and that the Indiana Pacers would impose themselves and come out with a victory, which would be something very good. It would be a victory away from home, but it seems that what happened in the first game only served to improve the New York Knights, who showed that playing at home they don't want to lose. and in that game, even in the first period it ended in a draw, it seemed that the Indiana Pacers would be determined to come out with a good result in this game and when I saw that in the second period they won by a difference of 10 points, I was convinced that they could win this game, but I was shocked when I saw that they lost in the third period, I wasn't watching the game, I was just following the result, so It's hard for me to understand what happened to the Indiana Pacers in the third period. because looking here:  Indiana Pacers had an average of more than 30 points scored in each period, but it was strange that in the third period they only managed to score 18 points and that was what led to them losing in that game. What happened to the Indiana Pacers attack in the third period? Tonight Thunder Mavericks, super game to see.
in my opinion the Thunder will win this game, they playing at home like they did in the first game, they will do well again Honestly it's real easy to see why. Jalen brunson went out with a couple minutes left in the first quarter up in the game. He was out for the entire 2nd quarter and that's the only reason Pacers went up 10 at half. JB came back in the 3rd quarter and it was a wrap for the Pacers. 24 points in the second half alone amd now the Pacers are down 2-0. Dude is different |

Tonight Thunder Mavericks, super game to see.
I really want to see the Dallas Mavericks move on and was a bit disappointed to see that the Thunder took game 1 so seemingly easily. Hopefully Kyrie and Luka respond by evening up the series and showing some dominance. If we end up with an NBA Finals that consists of the OKC Thunder and the NY Knicks I will be extremely disappointed and won't be able to bring myself to sit through a game. However, the success of these teams shows that having a good roster is more important than having a star player. I think the NBA has gotten so competitive that a single guy can't carry a team to the Finals anymore like a younger LeBron or prime Mike Jordan. I see what you did there 😐 JB is putting peoples feelings in a blender right now. 76ers fans still can't believe how easily he ate them up. Pacers are getting their taste now. Barkley obviously bet on the Pacers last night and was pissed after the game. People just can't figure out that he is unguardable. It's been fun to watch rather than those players the media hypes up and tends to get people who don't actually watch basketball to follow. |

He has at least one more season on his contract with the Knicks, and it seems to me that he can adapt to the new conditions, i.e., when Brunson is the team leader. Better that way if Brunson will be the team leader as they are more effective. Let him handle the ball and make the right decision as he makes everyone play their best. Though he had a lot of attempts but if you look at his stats, his FG% are very impressive for a player who takes a lot of shot, Kobe wasn't even above 40% during his prime IIRC, Brunson here does really know his spots. BTW, 61% FG percentage in game 2, pretty impressive, and in game 1, he was 53%. Pacers better find a way to minimize the production of Brunson. Pacers won't limit him, they don't prioritize defense. They just hope to outpace and outscore the other team. Problem is now OG anunoby is out now. Knicks without randle, OG, bogdanovich, mitch rovinson. They are stretching theor bench and players like Charlie brown, yeah Charlie brown might have to play. Brunson can only do so much. No guard wants to see brunson on the other side right now. Dude is getting whatever he wants. |

The Pacers and Knicks game today doesn’t excite me too much. Without a proper superstar it’s almost like watching a college game to me… Plus, I don’t really like either team’s roster now, or their franchise historically. So I’ll probably take a day off from the NBA playoffs to chase some other hobbies. I’m secretly hoping for the Pacers to win though.
People need to put respect on JB's name. LOL. He’s going to have to do more to reach star status. Congrats to Jokic winning another MVP. Almost seems dumb at this point they keep giving them to him. I think Doncic did enough to earn an MVP this season and Shaq said to Jokic that he thought SGA was more deserving of the MVP… Honestly how many games let alone playoff games does Devin Booker, lillard, etc win with a starting lineup of: OG Josh hart Divo Isiah hartenstein Bench of deuce mcbride amd previous achuiwa Dude is 4th in the league in scoring, second in points in the paint behind jokic and dude is 6'1, 1st in the playoffs. Leads all playoff scorers in 4th quarter points, clutch points. Left hurt for a quarter and a half last night comes back to drop 24 in the second half, dropped 21 points in the fourth alone in the first game. Hate all you want but you might want to catch up. I'd be interested in your take on what a star player is because if that's just an average dude in the NBA I'm missing something. |
