I also like the Bucs -7 against the Chargers. Herbert had another good game, but the overall Chargers performance was not as good as against the Chiefs, which is normal when the hype has gone and there are no special circumstances (like playing your first game in your new stadium). On top of that, LA will miss important pieces of their defense with CB Harris, DE Ingram and DT Jones out for today; Bosa is not 100%.

Even though I'm a Chargers fan this is an extremely sensible pick and I'm gonna take it. I need a win after 3 losses in a row. Seems like an easy-peasy victory for Tampa Bay right here. Now that I have almost all games available on TV (Xbox rather), Sundays have been the best day of the week.
4045  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Leroy Fodor has gone Full-Delusional! StakeMiners Confirmed .100%[sic] Insolvent on: October 04, 2020, 09:16:19 AM
I think he sold his account. The real Leroy was a total narcissistic asshole, he would never beg for "love and friendship".

Having said that, I replied to him asking to unlock all his locked threads, admit being a scammer in public, unblock everyone on Facebook, and of course repay the ~120BTC. Perhaps then I would consider revising my feedback.

The real cyberpinoy is back, going full Leroy Fodor in advertising Stakeminers! I think he has big plans but for now he is busy tying up loose ends. For one, he's been replacing the text of every thread started by Arab Cyberpinoy with the following disclaimer:

This was a fake and probably false scam accusation which was made by a thief himself, not a hacker just your run  of the mill thief who stole my account when bitcointalk had one of their data breaches and all our usernames and passwords were sold on the darknet. So now that I have gotten my account back I will be deleting all his nonsense. Personally he has some balls on him, to steal peoples accounts, then go around slamming people with red trust and scam accusations like he did. So I will delete what I can and since I cant delete the whole thread itself I will move it change its title, and remove any content I posted then lock it.

He says his account was stolen and not sold - who knows what the truth actually is - but one thing for sure is he got it back somehow.

If he thinks enough time has passed to the point that all is forgiven and forgotten, well he's got another think coming. I am Bruno incarnate up in this bitch and am ready to pick up the reins of his attack goat sled from wherst they were dropped.

I don't understand why DT1s add Cobra (and satoshi for that matter) to their trust lists seeing as how they've never used the trust system. I always thought keeping banned users in your trust list was a faux pas as well.

You can sleep easy tonight - @nutildah has just voted bill gator (inactive for 97 days) down to DT2 (-1) - (default trust abuse perhaps??)

How so? You want to expand on that a bit or you just want to fire spit wads at me from a safe distance?

As I've said to you a few times already, if you say something silly to me, I in turn get to say something silly back to you:

Or you could just attempt to be the bigger man. I know its a crazy idea but give it some thought next time.



Edit: I'm gonna practice what I preach and not clutter Loyce's thread with off-topic responses, instead just add it to this post.

@Timelord2067: this is my response to your inquisition:

If bill gator came back to the forum today, he'd be eligible for DT1 next month. I excluded him because I disagree not only with several of his ratings but with the contents of his trust list as well. I don't think bill gator is DT material, thus I have excluded him.

If you're insinuating I'm suchmoon, well, that's "fascinating."

Has embellished other achievements such as his Forex trading experience. Attacks anybody who points out inconsistencies in his stories.

cyberpinoy is running a staking pool website StakeMiners.com. Just as with the above, he attacks users asking questions about this website. Deletes posts that he doesn't like from his self-moderated thread.

I hope you're not actually paying this bumping service to spam this thread for you. That's one of the telltale signs of a scam project: a project so short-sighted they can't be bothered to attempt to build their own community organically, and instead relies on hired spammers to make it appear their thread has activity.

Well, I have news for you: because of the way the forum works, me commenting in your thread will now bump it to the first page of the ANN section, for the first time possibly ever. All of these 0 or 1 merit accounts don't actually bump your thread. They don't provide anything of value to your project. As a matter of fact, they likely detract from it as anyone with half a brain can see what's going on here.

I urge you to reconsider paying these professional spammers to clutter your thread with spam for you.

Edit: turns out this project is a scam after all. Why am I not very surprised.

I took a quick look -- he refers to himself in the 3rd person a few times, but I didn't see anything that specifically connects them. Perhaps there's things you guys can connect knowing more about the situation.

But one of the things the left is fucking good at?  Rebranding.

The Democratic party has never been the Communist party. They're two entirely different things. So its not a "rebranding" of anything.

Also... in my lifetime I can't thank of may words that seem to be more incorrectly used that "fascist".

Funny, I feel the exact same way about people who over-use the word "communist."
4055  Economy / Speculation / Re: [WO] The Origins of Antifa ☭ on: October 02, 2020, 11:23:47 PM
So, yes:  Antifa are Communists.

Meh. You're talking about the original Antifa which was only in existence for about 2 years. They have technically been defunct since 1933. Modern day Antifa (as it pertains to the US) is not directly tied to any communist party, which have severely fallen out of favor starting in the mid 1940s. It's not directly tied to anything except the ideology of fighting fascism.

Not many people in the US or anywhere for that matter identify themselves as communists anymore, or even socialists. The majority of voting Antifa members are obviously going to vote for Biden and not Howie Hawkins, who is the socialist / green party candidate for this year.

Don't understand what the point of trying to pigeonhole an amorphous movement with no real leadership was.

but there still is absolutely no correlation between stock market and bitcoin.



You are absolutely wrong here and you become more wrong with each passing month that more institutional money flows into bitcoin. You've been wrong on this issue for years, you're wrong today, and you'll be even more wrong tomorrow.

This is the most recent article and definitely worth a read:

https://blockchain.news/analysis/Why-bitcoin-price-correlation-stock-market-is-high-now

what happened with Covid was not US specific (whereas Trump getting Covid is). it was global and the global economy was affected hence bitcoin was also affected.

I'm talking about the sudden drop in the US stock market that happened in March, during which bitcoin dropped right alongside it. On that day there was absolutely 100% correlation between the stock market and bitcoin: Sensing panic, Wall Street investors pulled their money out of high risk investments, one of them being bitcoin, causing the price of bitcoin to drop. It's not an extraordinarily difficult concept to grasp -- I don't understand why you are fighting it so hard.

again believe me when i say there is an entire world outside of US Cheesy

Yes and the financial health of that world is largely dependent on what happens inside of the US, just like bitcoin. Its an easily-visualized, inescapable reality.
4058  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Trump gets Covid and we Crash? on: October 02, 2020, 08:18:29 AM
Again, you completely overlook the point to avoid having to admit you've been wrong when insisting there is no correlation between BTC and traditional markets. The point isn't about how drastic BTC moves due to the stock market, its that it does move due to the stock market.
you are trying to convince me that 1% to 2% price drop which is literary the most common fluctuation size that bitcoin has almost every day and is also ignored by everyone as "drop" (or similarly rise when it goes up) is bitcoin following stock market. well i'm not convinced.
in the past week alone (starting from September 25) we've seen at least 6 similar tiny changes where price creeps up to $10900 and comes back down to $10200 and repeats this trend again and all the 1-5% drops and rises in between. which means this current "drop" has absolutely no significance. it could have if price has been stable and was going from $10500 to $10550 then back down for 2 weeks!

Now you're oversimplifying things. I did not say that every 1-2% price drop is due to what happens in the stock market. At times - if not frequently - there is no correlation between the two; after all, the U.S. stock market is only open for 8-9 hours a day. However, when something drastic or nationally newsworthy happens that makes investors worried, they dump their highest risk asset first, which is... can you guess what it is? Bitcoin! Bitcoin is the most risky asset category known to man (or Wall Street anyway).

Given what happened with the covid market crash in March, its hard to miss the fact that Wall Street now owns a decent amount of bitcoin, and its easy to understand that their frame of mind could rub off on the bitcoin market as a whole. The more institutional investors enter the scene, the clearer this correlation will become. I suspect you'll never admit to being wrong, but that's OK, there's not much more I can say to change your mind.
4059  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Trump gets Covid and we Crash? on: October 02, 2020, 07:40:12 AM
Yes, as we speak. He's talking about S&P futures which are open while the markets are closed. You can see the index fall at the exact time of Trump's
i'm not saying he is wrong, i'm saying there was already a downtrend in general going on and 1% is S&P futures is not a new thing when there were already bigger drops happening.

You responded to what he said in the negative, but OK, anyway... What I really want to know is why you insist on missing the bigger point. The long-term trend of the stock market doesn't matter because that's not relevant to this discussion. What is relevant is that the president's tweet dropped stock market futures, and bitcoin immediately followed suit.

the reality is that 1-2% drop in bitcoin market is not even close to being the same as 1-2% drop in any other market.
you could say "same thing with BTC" only if bitcoin price had dropped about 15% at least to match the scale. daily fluctuations of bitcoin price on a normal day that nothing is going on are 5% as it is!

Again, you completely overlook the point to avoid having to admit you've been wrong when insisting there is no correlation between BTC and traditional markets. The point isn't about how drastic BTC moves due to the stock market, its that it does move due to the stock market.
4060  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Trump gets Covid and we Crash? on: October 02, 2020, 07:22:23 AM
Like holy hell what a ride the past day has been with the bitmex stuff
what bitmex stuff? an exchange facing criminal charges? that is new to you, everyone already knew exchanges were shady and many of them were involved in criminal activities, mainly manipulation of the market which is illegal and has severe consequences even if it seems normal.

BitMEX isn't even an exchange. You can't actually trade anything for anything there -- you just cash in BTC for fun tokens, play the games, then cash out your remaining fun tokens for BTC. It's quite different than an actual cryptocurrency exchange, and as such, it demands a different regulatory approach. Not to mention BitMEX was knowingly servicing 80,000 US customers even though it goes against their own policies (in addition to US regulations).

and now the POTUS getting covid with the first lady (they say) Everything is taking a dump.
same. nobody cares. least of which bitcoin price. keep in mind that there is an entire world outside of US Wink

And as we speak, the S&P500 futures is down by -1.60% as of yet(of course it could still change).
not as we speak, over the past month S&P500 has gone down nearly 10% and that's huge for stock market.
meanwhile bitcoin price is stable above $10k.

Yes, as we speak. He's talking about S&P futures which are open while the markets are closed. You can see the index fall at the exact time of Trump's tweet:



Same thing with BTC, except for maybe a couple minutes behind:



Weird to see you still completely in denial of reality. There's an entire world outside of the US that depends on the health of the US financial system. This includes bitcoin. If the U.S. has a bad day, bitcoin is going to have a bad day too. This is the way it is now whether anybody likes it or not.

Because of Wall Street's increasingly hefty investment in bitcoin, the two are inexorably connected, now more than ever. I've explained to you the exact connection between the two before and provided evidence that it exists but you just shun it all in order to maintain an outdated viewpoint. Why?

I know you're going to say this is just another coincidence in a long line of previous "coincidences" that tie together the stock market and BTC, and even if it was a correlation its short term and not long term, etc. But for everybody else who isn't beholden to an outdated idea this is further evidence of a paradigm shift away from bitcoin's independence from global financial markets. It's a new paradigm (that had been in the making since 2014) where the price of BTC no longer moves independently of world markets.

To quote Trump, "It is what it is."
