In all honesty, as the way the situation currently stands, it is impractical to use Bitcoin for everyday transactions simply because of the associated transaction fees. I am still waiting for the OP to explain a little about his personal circumstances which would have been pivotal in his thinking when he decided to create this thread.

Here are the full results for the quarter-finals:

Wednesday 17th April
Bayern Munich 1-0 Arsenal
Agg: 3-2

Manchester City 1-1 Real Madrid
Agg: 4-4
Real Madrid win 4-3 on penalties

Tuesday 16th April
Barcelona 1-4 Paris Saint-Germain
Agg: 4-6

Borussia Dortmund 4-2 Atletico Madrid
Agg: 5-4


Both remaining English teams were knocked out on  the same night (last night).

Congratulations to Real Madrid on getting past Manchester City in a thrilling game. PSG stepped up their game to sweep past Barcelona. Bayern Munich knocked out Arsenal. Borussia Dortmund scraped past Atletico Madrid.

Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, PSG and Borussia Dortmund are through to the semi-finals.

I tried to find a specific post where Jambler was mentioned but I guess that does not matter now. Jambler has been disallowed, that is the end of the matter.

As for your losses or potential losses, I have read several posts about the numbers you point to and I genuinely feel sorry about that. That bespoke signature arrangement you had was quite some deal. I have no idea about US laws and how they affected your income and associated tax but I hope you find other revenue streams soon.

If they are facing issue in a number of countries after the drama between them and the SEC, they will not have an easy ride. There are too many countries, each with their own rules/regulations that I think Binance is not respected and trusted as much as the owners believe it is and it clearly has very little clout when it comes to those making the political decisions.

Other exchanges should keep an eye on the situation because of it is Binance under the microscope today, it could be their exchange being scrutinised tomorrow.

Well, for neutrals the best thing that could happen (in order to keep the excitement factor going) is for Manchester City to drop points in their next game and for Liverpool and Arsenal to win their games. It would an anti-climax to the end of the season if any one team broke free and raced to the title without being chased.

There are still a lot of points to be won and lost both at the top and bottom of the Premier League table.

I am highly sceptical when reading these types of posts from newbie accounts. I see them as nothing more than attempts at trying to fish for merits but that is another matter.

Tell us about you since you are concerned enough with embracing sats for everyday transactions. How often do you use Bitcoin? How will your usage affect your transaction fees when spending?

The thread will always be an active reference points but sufficient time must have passed by now for the message to have filtered through therefore the thread might better be served if it is locked. Several recent posts here certainly should not have been allowed to remain. The quality of some of the posts are of a sub-standard enough level to be called in to question.

You have captured the sentiment aptly. For some of the members here in the forum, it seems clear there are no limits to their depravity (and displaying any qualities of human morality would be the furthest thing from their mind as they try to get merits in their quest to join campaigns and add to their farmed accounts).

People would have thought it does some skill to carve pumpkins and bake pizzas but some members here have displayed unbelievable talent.

The pizza competition as well as the other events have been abused on multiple occasions. If I am able to I will keep an eye on those threads and if necessary will give relevant tags but that is another issue for another day. As for the current, I am glad the Elissa~sH was caught out.

The disgusting gutter level lows that some people will go in order to seek merits has never surprised me but watching two accounts that were relative newbies at the time creating absolutely unnecessary threads about forum members (one deceased and one dying), was an eye opener. I find their behaviour repulsive.

One of those threads was created by the Elissa~sH account and I posted my disappointment on 10th March 2024:  o_e_l_e_o Such a life you will build/Laugh at death You will cry.

I do not believe this is a case of a single alt-account, The Elissa~sH account displayed key components of behaviour that showed with reasonable it is part of an account farming business.

Unfortunately, you were not the owner of Bustabit when the 2 BTC was paid for the licence but are having to deal with something from the legacy. It is very good to see you are continuing a high level of customer services in the same manner that the previous owner/operator did.

Keeping that aside, I have some reservations about the claim being made about the licence. Regardless of the background issues he states he is going through, it seems the claim is being made because he wants to re-sell the licence back and receive the same payment (in BTC) that it was purchased for. Failing that, the secondary plan to validate the licence is the next best thing. By not having a written contract clearly stating the definitions, it was probably going to cause issues later one day.

It will be interesting to see the next update.

The post below was deleted but archived in the #2 post in this thread.

What message are Liverpool and Arsenal sending out when they lost their games one day after Manchester City had an emphatic 5-1 win over Luton Town? What is even more surprising is that both teams were playing their games at home therefore had the backing of home fans. Though Manchester City are now favourites by most to win the title, there are seven games to go and still many things could change.

It is not over yet, the title race is still open. If Manchester City drop points, I am sure Liverpool and/or Arsenal will take an opportunity to close the gap at the top.

If the title of the thread is something that can be repeated and rinsed (admittedly this is not my only post here), then I have to state I am not surprised to see Bitcoin fall. It will of course eventually reach that all-important $100,00 milestone one day but for now the dip is in process. Considering it was above $70,000 but is now at $62,500, I would be inclined to think this is an ongoing dip.

One of the things Wilder complained about during their trilogy was that Fury was lean on to him and by using his weight he forced Wilder to use energy to try to push back. I am unsure how Usyk would handle that tactic if it were employed by Fury but he was successful when he shrugged off Joshua when he was clinging on in their fights.

It is good to read the activity in the thread but unfortunately no names have been added to the mix. Hopefully members will add a name or two and allows to read what they are doing and if it even warrants the amount of pay they are receiving from campaigns as they spam their way to meeting their signature quota.

Hopefully some names might be added to further the discussion.

These are all of the results since my last post:

Monday 15th April
Chelsea 6-0 Everton

Sunday 14th April
Liverpool 0-1 Crystal Palace
West Ham United 0-2 Fulham
Arsenal 0-2 Aston Villa

Saturday 13th April
Newcastle United 4-0 Tottenham Hotspur
Brentford 2-0 Sheffield United
Burnley 1-1 Brighton and Hove Albion
Manchester City 5-1 Luton Town
Nottingham Forest 2-2 Wolverhampton Wanderers
Bournemouth 2-2 Manchester United

Sunday 7th April
Manchester United 2-2 Liverpool
Sheffield United 2-2 Chelsea
Tottenham Hotspur 3-1 Nottingham Forest

What a turnaround of events that have taken Manchester City to the top of the Premier League table with a two point lead as Arsenal and Liverpool suffered defeats.

Tuesday 16th April
Barcelona vs Paris Saint-Germain
Agg:3-2

Borussia Dortmund vs Atletico Madrid
Agg:1-2

Wednesday 17th April
Bayern Munich vs Arsenal
Agg:2-2

Manchester City vs Real Madrid
Agg:3-3

Well, the first legs were played and the results were a mixed bag. The 3-3 was a surprise, I did not anticipate Manchester City would take the lead or even score three goals therefore I believe anything is possible in the return leg. Overall, I still am very confident Real Madrid will go through to semi-finals and Manchester City knocked out.

The names that are supporting the flag are seasoned forum members therefore clearly there is consensus on this particular individual. Apart from himself, he has no member supporting him and that speaks volumes for his character.

Personally, I would have expected to have seen more members supporting the flag but at the same time I would have expected to see a few newbie accounts (or those with red tags that are probably farmed account that were caught out) opposing the flag.

Filling Only For Fun ?

Joshua had a fantastic win over Ngannou and we were all surprised to see how he completely dominated the fight. The ending was a sad thing to watch as Ngannou required medical attention. Having said that, I believe Parker will beat Joshua. It went to the judges scorecard the first time they met in 2018 but if they were to meet today, I am confident Parker will defeat Joshua.
