^I don't understand why SugaSean wants to jump into boxing and challenge Tank Davis. Yes, he has a strong punching ability but that doesn't mean it's as strong as the boxers who always train their fists. And, he is still building his career in MMA. He may have won the title against Sterling but he needs to prove that he can keep it first. There are still strong fighters out there in UFC so the competition will not stop yet. Defending the belt will be a big trial for him. Hungry fighters will come and he should stay ready because there might be someone else already eyeing to challenge him.

Possible that he loves watching McGregor or idolizing him or he might want to have that luxurious money that McGregor receives after fighting Mayweather, as we all know that the revenue with Tank vs Ryan was a big success.

If he can hype that challenge and promoters will arrange the negotiation, we never know if how much money both
camps will earn if the fight takes place.

Just my opinion and whatever the reason for Sean to call and challenge Tank more on his own reason and maybe
we might hear some updates if there's a possibility that it will happen.
502  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: PYUSD a.k.a Paypal USD on: August 22, 2023, 09:10:07 AM
They launched their own stablecoin which is called PYUSD as indicated in the title and it's issued by Paxos.

It's supposed to maintain a $1USD value and backed up by the following:
- Dollar deposits
- US treasuries
- Cash equivalents.

Thoughts on this? I'm not a Paypal user so I don't see the benefits of using this over USD yet. Are conversion rates supposed to be higher or trade fees become lower for PYUSD pairs?

https://www.paypal.com/us/digital-wallet/manage-money/crypto/pyusd

I think this new stablecoin is nothing but pure hype. It doesn't bring anything new to the table. PYUSD is just like Tether and USD Coin but with PayPal's branding. Those who have an account on PayPal will be able to access PYUSD directly for goods and/or services. The company is just trying to get into the crypto/Blockchain train. Binance USD is also issued by Paxos (the same issuer of PYUSD), and it's been facing issues with the regulators recently.

Don't expect PayPal to be treated any better, especially when "The FED" doesn't want to lose control/dominance over the USD. If Facebook's planned stablecoin turned into a failure, I would expect the same to happen with PYUSD in the long run. Things could turn into another direction if the US eases off its crypto regulations. No one can predict the future, so we can only hope for the best. Just my thoughts Grin

The people at Paypal may be greedy, but they are not stupid.
They are aware that the FED case against Paxos corcerning the circulation of BUSD will likely end up in favor of Paxos. In that case, they may indeed try to jump onto the train of the stablecoin market before it is too late.

Perhaps they realized that there are more people who have moved off pure Fiat wallets towards exchanges to keep their money there, and in order not to lose more clients/users, Paypal probably tries to connect their service with exchanges so people can move those tokens from Binance/Coinbase towards paypal easier, using a deposit wallet and turning those tokens to Paypal USD.

On the other hand, if Paxos loses the lawsuit then it would be a strong precendent for the United States government tk shut down all projects related to stablecoins in their territory, leaving an open path for the future CBD they will likely launch soon.

There's a possibility that Paxos might win this case and, like what you mentioned, PayPal is playing their cards trying to ride with the train
and taking this risk if in case the direction favors their side.

Though same deal with the post above you, there's always a chance that the government will chase the project. There're no exemptions as they
wanted to make sure that there's no one who can dominate in terms of controlling the situation.

It's more on a gambling type project for PayPal. If destiny favors them, we might see good implication to the business, if not
expect that downfall will be experienced, especially to those who will try this stable coin to pair it with their crypto assets.
503  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be play with care on: August 22, 2023, 02:19:02 AM
I call it very difficult not to be carried away by gambling, but if you have strong determination and can respect the decisions that have been made, you have to play normally, gamble only when you have extra money and when you have free time / holidays. And I agree with your opinion, "if we can't win the game, then at least we have to be able to minimize losses"
We should minimize losses if we feel we can't win the game. And that means we don't need to play gambling for a long time because it will hurt us. And when we can appreciate our money, at least we won't use more money to play gambling and better use that money for other things. And indeed gambling is only to fill leisure time and not to make money. If we can make money from gambling, that is a bonus for us that we should be grateful for. And there is no need to chase bigger wins if we find it hard to get them.
value for money is the key to healthy gambling. I mean when someone really values money even though the amount is only $1 but it can help someone not to spend a lot of money on gambling and to minimize losses I usually do several ways but the most appropriate way for me is to bet $10 used to bet on sportsbetting with how to choose several team that are most likely to win so that you get slightly high odds so that you have the opportunity to place small bets to get quite profitable win.
In this way I can enjoy and can prevent too many losses because waiting for the match to finish we can watch the match so that our minds are not fixed on something wanting to get a big win that unconsciously continues to bet which can cause too big a loss. sports betting can be an option for minimizing losses but slightly profitable when our bets win.

If you are capable of controlling yourself as even you are into sports betting, there are also chances that you might exceed from your
set target. There are times that you overlook the odds and mistakenly place a bet.

If that happened, you quickly react and will try to recover your losses. It's common especially for those who wanted to have some profits
instead of enjoying, they are after with the potential profits.

You need to make sure that you are in control and the rest will follow and might give you
504  Local / Pilipinas / Re: May Mga Influencer Ba Tayo Na Tutok Sa Cryptocurrency? on: August 22, 2023, 01:59:04 AM
Yan ang di natin alam kung nakisabay lang ba siya o baka silent lang din siya para hindi malaman ng tao na nasa crypto siya. Pero posible nga na nagstop na siya nung nakita niyang hindi na profitable katulad ng karamihan na pumasok sa NFT tapos nung bumagsak na, nagsikalasan na kasi wala ng masyadong kita. Sana mas marami pa tayong makitang mga artista na nasa crypto at magbigay kaalaman sa mga tao para hindi matakot mag invest at pasukin ang crypto.

Baka silent holder na lang siya, mahirap na baka masilip ng BIR ang holdings nya at habulin siya for taxes.

As of now hindi na ako nagbibigay ng oras para mga cryptocurrency influencer.  Sa totoo lang hamak na mas advance ang kaalaman na nakukuha dito sa forum kesa sa mga influencers na nagkalat sa social media.  At karamihan sa kanila ay recycle knowledge ang pinipresenta.  Bali kapag may nagpost ng bagong update ay iyon din ang gagawin nilang topic kaya sayang lang sa oras.  Mas mabuti pang magfocus dito sa forum dahil karamihan sa mga knowledge dito ay factual talaga.  Nagkakaroon pa ng brainstorming kapag may mga cases na magkaiba ang pananaw ng myembro ng forum.
Puwede din na hanggang ngayon silent holder siya. Dati madami dami akong pinapa-follow na mga crypto influencers kasi nakakatuwa lang na madami na akong nakikita ngayon dahil dati kung babalikan natin ang ilang taon, wala masyado. Kaso nga lang na exploit naman ang industry na ito ng ilang mga fake influencers at alam naman na natin kung sino sino yung mga yun.

Mga nakisawsaw sa kasikatan ni axie at nung iba pang P2E na project at sa huli ayun naglaho halos lahat, pero dun sa mga silent supporter
at patuloy na inaaral ang kalakaran ng crypto.

Hanga ako lalo na dun sa mga ngshashare ng mga trading activities nila, hindi lang basta para makahikayat ng followers kundi para talagang
umalalay sa mga baguhan, meron pa rin naman kasing mga maayos na nagpapatuloy sa pagshare para mas matutunan ung mga basic.

There is no set profit for gambling and you should never see gambling as your main source of income. If you have more money then you can enjoy gambling some money as entertainment. But in gambling your luck is more dependent so if your luck is good you can earn more money.

You should always remember that there's no specific amount of money unless you have that good experienced that you learn
and capable of managing your bankroll.

Else, you may see yourself losing your money instead of making more, just the same, it's better to treat gambling as part of your entertainment.

Trying to make money in a daily basis will only lead you or can lead you to lose a lot, gambling will always be a risky place
in terms of making money.
506  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: August 21, 2023, 09:26:13 PM
Enough about James Harden. I think I've found an interesting topic to discuss.
Take a look at these viral pictures. What can you say about his appearance? He has been criticized for being overweight, with some suggesting that his weight is the reason he is prone to injuries. However, when you look at this 'scary man' now...

That's what you call a cool look and he really is going to recover and make a good comeback this upcoming season because he was really amazing before he got injured last season. Probably he will be more careful this time and will be at least protecting his health and body throughout the season so that they can go back to play the NBA playoffs again. I wonder how they shut his critics when he went viral with his self-proclaimed former girlfriend? Will that affect him or his game will be changed forever because of it?

In terms of his new look, it might be sending a good message that he's now ready to play ball with a lesser chance of getting another injury
we all know that he's weight really affecting him.

With that fit body maybe it will give him the confidence to jump high without a fear that he might land incorrectly and because of his weight
he won't be able to carry that load and be prone to injury again.

We will see that improvement this upcoming season, and connecting that to his issue maybe if he plays well that concern regarding to
his ex-gf will be forgotten.
507  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to tell if a new coin is worth investing in! on: August 20, 2023, 09:47:51 PM
Before you buy any good token, research how long it has been operating and marketed. Remember there is no end to the observation and you can continue researching for as long as you want because your capital is in your pocket and there is no fear of losing it. So research independently if the token is not doing well then don't be able to buy. Moreover no one can take your money by force from the investor.
It's not just about how long the token lives, but about how their community and the developers who develop the coin. it's pretty important.
Because there are so many new coins that appear only at the beginning, and then run off with a lot of investors' money. Doing detailed research will indeed help to find out what the long-term project for the new coin will actually be. If nothing is good and it's just run by scammers, then leave and find another project.

Yeah right, there are factors that you needed to consider before classifying the project, not just because it's still alive means that
it will be a good one to invest.

Check how good the development and how the team still working behind not to let the project to be stagnant.

There's always a measure that will depends on how you understand the project and how you project the possible profits that you
may get from your investment.
508  Local / Altcoins (Pilipinas) / Re: Axie Infinity Philippine Thread on: August 20, 2023, 09:30:31 PM
Anong masasabi niyo sa current update ng axie infinity? Ibinalik yung leaderboard rewards  sa v2 ahh though wala pading slp sa game as far as I know. I think maraming positive feedbacks nakua ngung iniannounce ito at satingin ko mas marami talaga mas gusto laruin ang v2 dahil siguro sa simple mechanics nito at mas sanay na ang mga players laruin ito. Currently, nag hihintay padin ako sa release ng axie infinity sa IOS app store. Ibang bansa palang kasi merong access eh.
Napalaro nalang ako ulit, hindi na mainit ulo ko kapag talo kasi wala namang reward at hindi ko na inaasahan na aakyat ako sa leaderboards. Sana lang talaga tumaas ulit demand ng mga tokens ng Axie para naman makabawi bawi. Ineenjoy ko nalang yung laro tutal ako naman bumili ng mga pang scholar ko dati. Kapag nasa top rankings, may AXS na reward. Kung ganito nalang gawin nila palagi baka sakali tumaas ulit ang demand. 11 days nalang remaining at matatapos na agad ang season.
True!! Wala na yung pressure ng quota before na need talaga maubos energy each day para ma maximize yung kita. Focus nalang talaga ngayon in enjoying and ranking up para makasali sa leaderboards. Enjoy enjoyin nalang nating yung axie infinity game ngayon na walang pressure at stress free even mag consecutive critical yung axie ng kalaban atleast wala tayong talo. Wala na di sense yunt energy before since di namana nag kakarewards. Pure enjoyment nalang at somehow some competiteveness if aakyat ka talaga sa leaderboards.

Kung ganyan na lang tatratuhin medyo hindi ka na nga masstress kasi nga laro na lang ang habol mo at hindi na yung possibleng
kita sa paglalaro, medyo iba na lang sa nakasanayan pero syempre adopt na lang muna talaga.

Hindi natin alam kung baka biglang bumulusok ulit or sadyang wala na talaga at magfofocus na lang talaga sa paglalaro at enjoyin na lang ung game.

Or baka meron pa naman pag asa na kumita ulit kung sakaling magkaroon ng magandang run pagpasok ng bull season.

It was a tough choice to make because they know that Steve Kerr can still make some things possible and rectify their mistakes last season because that's what a team should do, Steve Kerr managed to train Poole properly and he can still do that again but the real thing is, behind all this, NBA is still a business and in the end of the day, the Warriors will choose who will stay and who will go.

Well, Jordan Poole should now just do what the best he can to preserve his worth because he doesn't have his former coach's back anymore and from now on it's a man for himself and he should care to bring their team to a championship right now in order to take revenge but that's not gonna happen if he doesn't learn from this and not try to improve his skills. That's not an easy thing to do of course, but to turn those anger into aspirations is the best thing he could do in order to show them who's lost was it.

It will be better if he will take it that way, bringing that fire inside him, proving that he's worth or impact will be enjoyed by his
new team, something that will let the Warriors management to regret what they did to him.

Too early though as we don't know what will happen to him in wearing new jersey and playing with his new teammates, all will be concluded
when the season starts and how him and his team will perform.
510  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Inoue vs Tapales for Unified Super Bantamweight Title - November on: August 19, 2023, 05:39:25 AM
What does he mean by that? Does he mean they have achieved more so far at the same age or division, or does he believe that Inoue would be able to surpass the success of Pacman? Many experts believe that there's a very slim chance that someone in the current generation would surpass what Pacman has achieved. So, if Inoue is special, he might be able to prove the experts wrong.

Definitely not the overall achievement but rather "maybe" how Arum sees Inoue's skills and power at the current division.

Naoya Inoue surpassing Manny Pacquiao shouldn't be a topic in the first place since they both build their own path in different generations. Managing both Pacquiao and Inoue for several years, Bob Arum can speculate what he thinks is going to happen in the future and he can compare the past to the present.

We should just respect his statement as he knows both more than us.

If we are somehow to argue with that statement, then just keep it to ourselves.

Great point, he handles both career and whatever he thinks that may happen. It's his view since he still handling Inoue and
still keeping the hypes after winning another belt in another division.

Whatever the fate of this young champ, the opinion of his handler relies on how he performs and how he manages to win a fight.

He got his own identity and comparing him with Pacquiao, more on opinion base replies.

sana naman ay huwag masira ng imahe ng bitcoin at crypto dahil dito na ginagamit sa masama ng ibang tao, sana din ay huwag mabyaran ng masasama ang mga otoridad, at magkaroon ng tamang tingin at batas na patas para sa crypto currency
anu ang masasabi ninyo tungkol dito sa balita na ito
narito ang link ng balita:
https://news.abs-cbn.com/video/news/08/17/23/millions-of-cash-pre-registered-sim-cards-seized-in-pogo-hub

I hope ideclare ng government yung wallet address ng mga nakulimbat nilang seed phrases para makita natin kung nagalaw ito in the future. Di dapat magalaw yung laman nun as of now because it's an evident pero I think meron paring chance na may kumulimbat din ng laman nung wallet na yun if I will base my thinking sa mga storya ng mga kakilala ko sa gobyerno. Let's hope na hindi ito ang maging root cause ng pagkabahala ng government sa crypto dahil sa incident nato at hoping din ako na hindi na maulit yung may mahulihan ng seed phrase or wallet kasi sigurado akong iinit sa mata ng government natin ang cryptocurrency.

Hahaha malamang hindi na idedeclare yan pera na nila iyan eh saka karamihan sa ganitong operation sinisekreto lahat ng mga financial amount kapag walang actual coverage ng media.

Tungkol naman sa crypto effect, tingin ko wala ng epekto itong balitang ito sa cryptocurrency dahil lahat na naman ng negative impression nasabi na lahat kaya wala na ring epekto kahit ano pa sabihin sa balita at iconnect ang crytpo sa krimen na ngyari.  Marami na rin kasing nakakakilala sa Bitcoin at ibang pang cryptocurrency kaya medyo may resistance na rin ang market sa mga news na ganito.

Ano pa bang maidadagdag nyan sa crypto kung sakali? eh mas madami naman talagang naniniwala na scam ang industriyang ito,
wag nyo sana masamain, kasi sa palagay ko matatabunan lang din yan.

Wala naman impact kasi yung mga scam mas may mga malalaki pang news sa ibat ibang paning ng mundo  pero ganun pa rin naman
patuloy lang ang crypto at may mga investors at traders pa rin naman.
512  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be play with care on: August 18, 2023, 11:16:08 PM
And someone who doesn't have an active income should simply stay away from gambling because gambling is not for them. Some people think of gambling as a way to get money when it is actually a way to spend money and enjoy some time while you are free from the world. Gambling is a business for its owners and a stress-releasing mechanism for gamblers but a lot of people don't understand this and they have made gambling a totally different thing.

Those who win something significant while gambling for fun enjoy that moment and add that money into their future bankroll for gambling and those who take gambling as a source of income tend to chase those wins but they barely be able to get them but instead lose everything they've brought with them.
Simply put those people do not really understand what gambling is about and they want to make it something that is not, but unfortunately this is something that is going to keep happening as some gamblers are so invested in the idea that it is possible to make money gambling that they are willing to risk their entire future just to prove themselves right, and when dealing with that kind of self-destructive behavior it is almost impossible to convince those people of their mistakes until they can see them with their own eyes.

Yes, that wrong impression of gambling places those people into a big trouble. Messing up with your finances will hurt you both
in your physical and mental capabilities.

People who love to risk their money that can result. In addition, there's nothing to work as all they know is they wanted to play and
they will somehow win, but most of the time, the outcome is far different from how they think about it.

Complete mess with their money to the point that they already loaning out.

Gambling is only a means of entertainment and I don't consider it more than that. if there is an advantage it is just luck or a bonus from the game we are playing. Gambling that is too forced will indeed give a lot of losses because they are addicted to it which will have an impact on their metal and physique, as well as the impact on their economy. But with match betting, it may be gambling but it doesn't always depend on luck, there is an analysis that must be done before choosing the safe team that will win.

You pointed out something that for real can bring you money, but there's always a risk when practicing that kind of betting, bookies
will not allow you to suck money out of their bankroll.

If you are talking about match betting where you can use different sites and look for some odds that will give sure money, then it's true that
you may make money.

But once the house notice that activities, expect that there's something you may not want to happen with your money.
513  Economy / Speculation / Re: When will you sell...next bull run? on: August 18, 2023, 10:24:31 PM
when discussing targets and strategies, then everyone will have their own strategy. maybe right now someone is targeting $40k, $50k, or even higher. Personally, I want the Bitcoin price to reach $100k by the next bull run. However, given the current state of things, maybe $60k or $70k is good enough. If you want to sell a few percent of the assets you own, you might be able to aim to sell them after the halving. Well, but all the decisions are up to you.
You need to set that target and focus with how you understand the business, buy as much as you can and hold while waiting for
the strong bull run to come up and pump the market.

You will earn the compensation that you desire to have if you will manage to keep your trust with the asset/s that you are holding.

Your aim amount depends on how you project your set target and once you already achieved better to sell it with an open arm benefit.
Depends on the asset we are talking about. I mean if we are talking about a situation where you are holding something terrible, I am not going to give any examples of what is a terrible coin (ehem..doge..ehem) then you are going to regret that you are holding it.

It means that you are going to hold something that loses you money, or even if it goes up, it doesn't go up as much as other stuff did, or something that goes down more than others went down. Look at XRP for example, it did went up a lot, but it has gone down more than everything else, so when it went up, it didn't mean anything. So all in all, if you are holding bitcoin then yeah holding is great, but if you are holding something risky, it may not be great.

Exactly, it's your good analysis that will give you the outcome that you wanted to happen with your investment,
without good knowledge about the business,

Your chance of losing your money is possible. You need to work with your knowledge to make sure that you will going to have
that good potential benefits.

Keep in mind that the value of the asset depends on how well the development holding is good for those solid
project that may bring a good pump in the long run.
514  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: August 18, 2023, 10:19:30 PM
I don't what to speculate but it should be around the money I guess. Maybe he was promised to have a good money this season. But the owner turn his back on Harden.
Words are very powerful, and they should be honored. If James Harden is promised good money without conditions, then he is due for that. However, sometimes these businessmen are very clever; they tend to use their power to influence a player's decision but ultimately may not stand by their words. Nowadays, the system has already changed, as players can make demands. In the case of James Harden, being a superstar, I'm pretty sure he knows what he's doing. He understands that he won't lose his job, even if the 76ers decide to trade him, which they have refused to do until now.

Might be but as we all know, owners will have to make promises, and players should take that as a grain of salt. I remember the Jordan Poole trade, Poole said that he was assured that he will not be traded by Dunleavy Jr. But in the next 12 hours, he was traded to the Wizards.

So that is a lesson that there is no absolute word in the NBA, it's business, the owner or the president of basketball for operations of a team will have to make the hard decision. And with that, Harden might be hurt by the promises and so he wanted to leave.

It's all about business. If the managements decide to take you out or not or not to give you what you want, then expect
that it will take place.

Management may keep you or trade you, even how those words are being pronounced publicly, and like what you mentioned about Poole
that's a good example of how those words can quickly twist.

Nothing can be done if the management decides whether to keep or to let you go.
515  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you trade altcoins during the bull run or just hodl? on: August 18, 2023, 10:06:25 PM
The important thing for welcoming the coming of the bull season is that you already own bitcoins. But you can also try to trade altcoins but be careful because many altcoins are still trying to survive before the bull season comes. That can get you in trouble, especially if you lack the skills to analyze the coin.

We also don't know which altcoins will get the pump and can only guess. And most of us are wrong in guessing the coins because each coin has the same opportunity to increase high. So if you can't analyze well, you shouldn't trade but just buy and hold, especially holding Bitcoin.

yes, indeed we have to be able to analyze when we are interested in trading during a bull market, but indeed we must be careful because trading in a bull market is very risky because we will not know how long the bull market will run. actually trading in the bull market is very exciting because the trading volume is good but in my opinion the risk is very high when compared to trading in a bear market.
Trading altcoins can be highly profitable, but it also comes with greater risk due to price volatility and the potential for losses. Hodling is generally considered a safer option for those who are risk-averse and prefer a long-term investment strategy.

Hold is for those who understand the potential value in the long run, though there's always timing that's needed, if you are sure that
you are supporting solid assets, holding is good way if investment.

While if you are playing with a pump and dump project riding the train is very risky, you need to know when to buy and when to sell the soonest
that is possible to avoid possible burned of your investment.

Knowing that in these types of volatility, the wrong move will cause you to lose everything.
516  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: August 17, 2023, 11:58:01 PM
It seems that Oscar wanted to go to legal actions here:

Quote
The Hall of Fame former six-division titlist is prepared to take legal action to protect the rights of England’s Ohara Davies, the top-rated WBA junior welterweight contender who Golden Boy Promotions signed earlier this spring. Davies was named mandatory challenger to current titlist Rolando ‘Rolly’ Romero, for which a purse bid hearing was indefinitely postponed as the sanctioning body will review medical documents provided on July 21 by Romero’s team.

https://www.boxingscene.com/de-la-hoya-demands-answers-threatens-legal-action-enforce-romero-davies-wba-mandatory-title-fight--177011

He wanted to have his bod, Ohara Davies to fight current WBA 140 lbs champion in Rolly Romero. But it seems there is a delay from the governing body to issue a mandatory fight and Oscar is eager for the WBA to give it to them. It was ordered already that a fight is to be made and maybe this is the contention of Oscar that's why he goes on legal actions to forced WBA to commit to it.

He has the right, and I believe he knows himself well enough to expect a victory in this battle. Furthermore, there's money at stake in this championship fight. Not only that, if his fighter defeats Rolly, it will open up even bigger opportunities for them to maximize their earnings. So, if I understand it correctly, there's a delay in the fight; it's not completely canceled yet. Oscar's camp simply wants to ensure that the fight will happen by setting a specific date.

For a businessman like him, waiting for nothing is just a wasted opportunity, so he wants to enforce what is due to happen.

Good move by Golden Boy Promotions although it might create a bad blood with the corrupt WBA and it will avoid ranking any of GBP's fighters in the future. But if GBP won't take action, expect the WBA to delay or even drop Ohara later in its next ranking release. It is becoming common nowadays for sanctioning bodies to avoid enforcing mandatories when the contender and its champion came from rival giant networks; i.e., DAZN, ESPN, and Showtime.

At the moment, the bad blood between PBC and GBP continues especially after Ryan Garcia's (GBP) defeat at the hands of Tank Davis (PBC) where the boy also wanted out of his GBP promotional contract. Hopefully, the purse bid goes on and we will see who's got the deeper pocket between these promotions to promote the Romero-Davies fight.

It's  business and for sure whoever behind the governing body are also making decent money out from each fights that they will
allow, it's a good move indeed for GBP as they wanted to make sure that it will happen.

And someone who doesn't have an active income should simply stay away from gambling because gambling is not for them. Some people think of gambling as a way to get money when it is actually a way to spend money and enjoy some time while you are free from the world. Gambling is a business for its owners and a stress-releasing mechanism for gamblers but a lot of people don't understand this and they have made gambling a totally different thing.

Those who win something significant while gambling for fun enjoy that moment and add that money into their future bankroll for gambling and those who take gambling as a source of income tend to chase those wins but they barely be able to get them but instead lose everything they've brought with them.
Simply put those people do not really understand what gambling is about and they want to make it something that is not, but unfortunately this is something that is going to keep happening as some gamblers are so invested in the idea that it is possible to make money gambling that they are willing to risk their entire future just to prove themselves right, and when dealing with that kind of self-destructive behavior it is almost impossible to convince those people of their mistakes until they can see them with their own eyes.

Yes, that wrong impression of gambling places those people into a big trouble. Messing up with your finances will hurt you both
in your physical and mental capabilities.

People who love to risk their money that can result. In addition, there's nothing to work as all they know is they wanted to play and
they will somehow win, but most of the time, the outcome is far different from how they think about it.

Complete mess with their money t the point that they already loaning out.

May point ka dito. Madami sa ating mga kababayan ang masyadong na a-attract sa hype o "trend" na nababasa nila madalas online na nagsasabi na kikita sila ng pera sa crypto. Kaya naman kahit wala silang background o kahit anong kaalaman dito ay papasukin nila ito. Hindi rin naman natin sila masisisi lalo na sa panahon ngayon na halos lahat ay nagigipit sa pagtaas ng presyo ng mga bilihin sa bansa. Ang magagawa nalang natin ay mag paalala na mas mabuti pa rin na may alam at naiintindihan ng buo ang risks at rewards sa system ng cyrpto lalo na sa mga taong kakilala natin na interesado sa crypto.

Karamihan sa mga nabibiktima nito ay dahil sa kakilala o kaibigan na involved or nakasali na doon sa mga hyped crypto projects.  At since karamihan sa mga ganitong strategy ay may referral bonus at sa kagustuhan kumita kahit na ipagkanulo ang mga kaibigan at mga kamag-anak, pinipilit nilang sumali ang mg tao sa nakapaligid sa kanila.  Kaya tuloy dahil sa tiwala sa mga kaibigan na naginvite, napapasali ang mga taong walang alam or hindi nagdadalawang isip dahil nga sa alok ito ng kaibigna na pinagkakakatiwalaan nila.

Mabuti na lang karamihan sa mga nascam ay natututo na at hindi na basta basta sumasali sa mga kaparehong kumapanya na ginagamit ang crypto para gatasan ang mga hindi nanghihinalang mga investors.

Yun ang problema yung impluwensya ng kaibigan or kamag anak kasi nga pagdating sa pera wala ng isip isip sabak agad at baka
maiwanan, yan yung common na maririnig  mo.

Yung tipong "ikaw din baka maiwanan ka" yan yung mga naririnig ko dun sa mga networking dati kaya nun pati sa crypto nagkaroon ng mga
ganyang style parang na-immune na ko hahaha.

Pero buti na lang yung ibang nadale na medyo natuto na at hindi na nagpapa-uto pa.

If I were in Tapales' shoes, I would choose to remain a champion and face challengers. Though I would receive a smaller amount of money than what I could potentially earn against Inoue, there's a chance that I would earn consistently. The thing is, if Tapales unifies with Inoue, the likelihood of losing is very high, and he might also lose his popularity eventually, making him unable to get fights anymore.

So it's a big risk. Let's say 'big risk = big rewards,' but he has to consider the other side.

Now depends if what will be Marlon Tapales' priority "for now", legacy or business.

Tapales is been vocal and since becoming a champion, even called out Naoya Inoue to fight him. But with the recent rumor that they might get a small paycheck, which is not reasonable for a champion, will that lead to changing his plan for long and skipping fighting Naoya Inouye for now? Until when? Does ducking Inoue, for now, to somehow increase his purse split will make everything smooth in return?

Anyways, does anyone know how much was being offered to Tapales camp?

With that argument, how secure Tapales can defend his title with other challenger that will be matched to him? Though he has that
belts in him, but securing it and defending it will be a tough one for him.

More on being practical, if you have that chance to face Inoue with a huge amount of money even the share is not equal, it might
be a better option for him.

Maybe there's a negotiation behind but I don't have any idea regarding to how the offer was being made.

when discussing targets and strategies, then everyone will have their own strategy. maybe right now someone is targeting $40k, $50k, or even higher. Personally, I want the Bitcoin price to reach $100k by the next bull run. However, given the current state of things, maybe $60k or $70k is good enough. If you want to sell a few percent of the assets you own, you might be able to aim to sell them after the halving. Well, but all the decisions are up to you.

You need to set that target and focus with how you understand the business, buy as much as you can and hold while waiting for
the strong bull run to come up and pump the market.

You will earn the compensation that you desire to have if you will manage to keep your trust with the asset/s that you are holding.

Your aim amount depends on how you project your set target and once you already achieved better to sell it with an open arm benefit.
