I was so surprised by the result of this fight with Anderson Silva winning at first round in 1 minute and 21 seconds. Now I understand what he did. Days before the fight he said to the media he would dodge and resist maximum as possible along the rounds and that is exactly what Tito Ortiz thought it was going to happen, so he went full attack mode since the beginning. Probably in his mind he imagined he could control the fight's rhythm this way.

However, what he didn't know is that Silva was bluffing and when Ortiz least expected, the game turned 180º. He was surprised by a sudden change in his opponent's strategy that knocked him out instantly without giving him any recovery chance. Maybe if he were more strategical and didn't rush like that the fight would have lasted longer.

I would like to see a real case of 11 years old kid gambling. It seems really unlikely for me. Maybe these statistics are mixing gambling at casinos and friendly "betting" with friends or relatives at home or school. The second situation isn't an issue at all and there is no way to avoid underage people to bet in some events of their daily routine for fun. I remember when I was at middle school students organized a betting pool in the world cup results and we bet small amounts of money just for fun. Would we also be included in these statistics and punished by the law?

It's parents' duty to take care the mental health of their children. If they are showing symptoms of addiction, parents must identify the cause of the problem and fight it back. But the rest of the world can't forbid an activity from being advertised just because few individuals can't handle it properly.

The closest real experiment to this concept is Liberstad. To get there you can just fly to Norway and make your way to this community.

However I can't find any recent updates about this project. By 2019 there was the promise Liberstad would become the first crypto private city in the world, without any central authority or government. They started selling pieces of land in 2018 for Bitcoins, but one year later they have created their own crypto currency, City Coin, to be used as official and only currency inside the domains of Liberstad.

In my opinion there is a big contradiction between speech and practice, because if people are enforced to use an altcoin as currency there is no difference to another administration models. However, it's not an exclusivity of Liberstad. I think any society which tries to organize themselves in a 100% private or decentralized way will contradict their words through their practices sooner or later.

Some people speculate Satoshi Nakamoto is a group of individuals, but I believe there is only one man behind the pseudonym. Anything involving money can't work so well like bitcoin is doing if there are more people involved because people have different personalities that will not match among themselves on long run. People are vain, greedy, ambitious and at some point bitcoin would be damaged if there were more than one "Satoshi Nakamoto".

It's likely he has mined over 1 million of bitcoins that are still untouched by this day. They were mined during the early months of bitcoin. On that time it was possible to mine blocks which rewarded 50 btcs, that was an awesome reward.

How many Bitcoin does Satoshi Nakamoto still own?

I agree with you when you say the root cause must be addressed. I believe there are two possible reasons:

• Young people possibly want easy, fast money and sports gambling advertisements makes they think it's possible to achieve their goal through this activity;
• Lack of productive opportunities disponible for youngs in the regions where they live. With jobs offering too low payrates, people tend to search for alternative ways to grow their earnings and gambling looks attractive at first impression for them.

If there were more jobs, more earnings opportunities for everyone this issue would probably be heavily decreased without the need of banning any ads... However, it's really a big issue which goes beyond the will and reach of any governments. The truth is that there are too many people in the world right now for a much lower number of jobs spots disponible.

It comes all at once when governments are interventionism adepts. That means they mask the economical scenario maximum as possible to give a false impression everything is fine. They artificially control prices, print money often, increase public expenses (like you said regards Biden's policy of giving free money). As such measures are useless and don't solve any issues, at some point the situation becomes unsustainable and hyperinflation hits aggressively.

Irresponsible, populist public policies turn economical crisis into a snowball downhill increasing in size after each spin and destroying everything on its way.

I think it's the same writing in a better quality image in another banner: Aceptamos pago en Bitcoins en cualquier compra / We accept payment in bitcoins in any purchases.



Sorry for the huge image, but it must be readable.

On those times soccer were very different from the currently one. There were masters like Maradona and normal players. But right now even master players face difficult challenges against considered weak teams, because the professional background of every players in almost every countries improved a lot and they are a lot more strategical than in 90's and below.
Barcelona and PSG are strong teams, but all the other teams are also strong if you compare them to the soccer of the old days. In the situation you mentioned I think it would be only possible to know who is the best if it were possible to send Messi to 1986 and replace Maradona for him on the field.

Messi is a great player and I think fans are unfair when they say he isn't trying hard enough, because the results of the national team don't depend only on him. He can't bring the title to Argentina by himself, carrying the team on his back. I don't know if the problem is a lack of standing out players in argentinian team (with Messi's exception), the fact the team relies too much on Messi, what makes the rest of the players lazy and unfocused or that although they have good players they don't know how to play well as a team.

In my opinion Messi even outstands Maradona. Besides being the best world's player he has never scored with his hand.

I'm facing constant issues when signing up and completing the verification process at crypto currency platforms from different kinds, due to their third party KYC sites not accepting the documents provided, although they are perfectly fine and readable. I don't know why these services are difficulting the process like this, because their customers (crypto platforms) are the main prejudiced in the end, since users can't verify their accounts properly.

I believe KYC services are demanding details that average users can't even supply in an accessible or affordable way. For an example, a top tier quality camera to photo the document. And I suspect the process isn't even done manually by real operators, as right after you send your ID, seconds or minutes later they have already rejected it.

Imagine the volume of stucked verifications these platforms have due to inneficient KYC providers and the potential profit they could have been making if it wasn't this mix of bureaucracy and incapable verifiers.

That is very frustrating. Time is money and in crypto universe it shouldn't be different...

There are rumours he could be taken by Everton as the team is facing serious issues with their right-back position added to an injury suffered by the captain Seamus Coleman, who is also captain of Ireland national team. The free transfer of Serge Aurier and Everton's necessity for an experienced player like him seems to perfectly match at this moment. Let's see.

Kevin Campbell Endorses Possible Everton Move For Serge Aurier

Interesting there are plenty of communist content in platforms like Facebook without any censorship against them. Why is communism allowed and nazism isn't by the platform, since they are two faces of the same coin considering the methods used by both regimes?

The case becomes even worse if the posts are just made for historical or educational purposes. What Facebook does is to forbid people from learning fragments and details of past events which forged the history of the modern society.

However, there is nothing we can do about it, because they are a private company and it's their right to choose what kind of content can and can not be displayed in their domains.

I clicked the link and this page showed up:


I didn't go further anyway.

That guy is just trying to refer some people to his personal account or to add them to a gambling virtual group. He claims it's a new innovative strategy which has been working for him, a friend of him and his sister for half a year already, but I doubt any of his statements are true, because there isn't anything new and innovative about Martingale, moreover I doubt Martingale strategy could work for half a year without crashing the bankroll meanwhile if the gambler plays at least in a weekly basis.

The truth is that the youtuber just created a random sequence for black and red bets to make his video stand out among many identical videos disponible on youtube. That was his marketing strategy. Sadly no one in comments section of youtube point out these facts.

I think you are right for going after the money in order to acquire stuff you want without expecting someone is going to give it to you for free, like most young people. It's not wrong to look for jobs, extra income since an early age. It actually shows a responsible and mature behavior from the individual. I would like to have been more like this during my teenager times, so I could have discovered bitcoin on the moment it was launched.

My suggestion is that you keep watching news regard NFT/Blockchain games/Play to earn games, because it tends to be a hot topic from now on, especially for people at your age. The good opportunities must be taken at the beginning and that is why it's important to watch news from this niche of crypto market often. You might know Axie Infinity. It's just the first of many successes that are to come.

It's true, he got worse day by day because he had a greedy obssession for the One Ring that eventually made him completely change his lifestyle, going away from his traditional routine to live exclusively to worship the ring in dark places. For that reason I think we shouldn't hold our Bitcoin like Sméagol, as we know what happens if we do and I believe no one would want to be on his shoes.
It's important to always have in mind money or bitcoin is here to serve us and not the opposite. If adopters are able to keep a healthy relationship with their holdings and avoid repeating the example of Gollum they will thrive in their personal finances.

I believe this intense traffic happens because many people advertise freebitco.in at PTC and micro jobs websites, in search for referrals. So lots of people open the site on their devices daily in order to complete the tasks on those platforms, but not necessarily sign up or become loyal users of freebitco.in. It helps increasing the traffic anyway and shows how freebitco.in's users invest money from their own pocket in the referral program.

Where do you see this number of participant accounts? Inside lottery tab I can only see the top 10 winners list and the total amount of tickets from the last round.

Really impressive, that is less than 1% of total users. Now imagine if about 10% of freebitco.in's users were active, we would have 1 BTC prizes every round for the first position winner, 0.5 BTC for second position, 0.25 BTC for third position and so on...

The 47 million users aren't all active, of course. But if they were, it would be around 3 tickets per user, not 3 million.
It's hard to calculate it anyway, because we have no idea how many users access the site in a weekly basis to participate the lottery draws.

I tried to get an average calculation based on my tickets amount (676) and reached to a result of 217,455 active users. That is just my personal case as example, but there are people who have less tickets, so the number of active users must be higher.

2 tickets winning is really a mythical event, but maybe tickets are so splitted among different users' hands that it becomes common to happen winnings for two or three digits tickets holders. I say that because the site has 47 million of users, that is more than the population of some small european countries, and every user can acquire few tickets for free just by claiming the faucet reward or by referring some people to the site.
We see right now 147,160,000 tickets for the next draw, but we don't know how many people are holding those tickets. Maybe there are million of people already holding few of them. As there are many of them, it becomes common these small holders are selected as winners.

The game will happen next month, 10/08, right? This match will be an opportunity for Czech Republic to show a better performance than that one they had when the team lost against Wales in the round 3 of qualifiers by 1-0 in march. Judging only by that game I would say Wales is the favorite one, but since then Czech Republic has also showed some nice results, especially against Netherlands (2-0) and Scotland (2-0), both in Eurocopa.

And although this match is going to be very balanced, (correct me if I'm wrong) Wales may have a slight advantage in the bigger picture, because they have one less game in the group. So although both teams have 7 points, Wales will have an extra chance to play yet.

I think Cryptoblades isn't measurer for anything. That "game" was a ponzi since the beginning. It was just a browser website artificially inflated in a very short time period without any real gameplay or action. Furthermore there was no logical way to explain how that project could be so successful. It can't be compared to real mmorpgs or casino games.

Regards the mentioned metaverse from Decentral Games it's totally different, because there are actually casinos games which people will play and earn tokens. Those who want to cashout their free earnings will have this option, while those who want to keep playing will have the possibility of doing that as well. It looks a good concept for me that will unite gamblers, micro earners and investors (staking will be also disponible) in a single place.
