Havent seen such an interesting main card for a long time.
My predictions are. Miocic wins by decisions and we see again tears in DC eyes. This is going to be last fight in DC career, right? O'Malley submits Vera. And Rozenstruik TKO dos Santos.
Btw, can someone explain why Sean O'Malley is already top14 Bantamweight with only 3 fights in UFC against not higher than his rank fighters and with not extraordinary record ? It is like he fighting guys that are weaker than he, but advances in ranking.
Sean O'Malley is a striker. It might be a knockout or a decision. Also, his only win by submission was on 2015 when he was not in the UFC. However, he can be lucky. Darren Stewart has won his only victory by submission only this Sunday hehehehe. @yazher. It might only be a commercial with him and Pacman for Proper 12 hehe.

The commercial was released. It presented Barry Silbert's different funds for altcoins. I reckon institutional investors might begin laughing after doing their research on Ethereum Classic, fork of Ethereum after DAO hack, 51% attackers' favorite target. Horizen, fork of Zcash, they are not anonymous. Stellar fork of Ripple, founder dumps XRP every month after fork. Bitcoin Cash fork of Bitcoin, no comment hehehe.

Presenting Barry Silbert's campaign commercial for bitcoin. https://twitter.com/sonnenshein/status/1292792512780947457?s=21As a person who knows the history, I was shaking my head and I felt a little embarassed after I saw names of altcoins BCH, Zcash , Ripple, Stellar, Ethereum, Ethereum Classic in there. The commercial has nice music, however hehehe.

@bigslimvdub. However, the fixed supply and the assumption that it is the better option is also a only theory. On bitcoin it appears that the effect is that is being used as a speculative investment more than a medium of exchange similar to gold. Early holders are incentivized to keep them instead of using them.

@figmentofmyass. I hope it worsens before I make the bet hehehe.
Also, about the mail in ballots, who runs and works in the United States Postal Service? There was an article about it that 70% of USPS workers are Republicans.

In RE to tail emissions, what CN coin is on tail emissions currently? Will aeon hit tail emissions before Monero so it can be examined on effectiveness? Since there has been zero talk about tail emissions since 2017 pre-rebase, it is only hopes and expectations on effectiveness right now.
Also for price comparison to monero, Aeon was $9.50 while monero was almost $500. Not a fair way to compare projects based of market cap
However, tail emmission and infinite emmission are monetary policies that might be theoretically more sound than bitcoin's monetary policy of having only the fees to secure the blockchain after the end of its distribution.

Is this article's title clickbait? I do not see any arguments from Master Woo that implies that bitcoin will crush the altcoins' bull market. The pattern has been pump on bitcoin followed by pump on altcoins and back again to bitcoin followed again back to the altcoins. While speaking about this, one analyst explained that he expects BTC to crush altcoins in the coming weeks as it recaptures some of its market dominance.
Willy Woo – a well-respected on-chain analyst – explained in a recent tweet that there are a plethora of factors that all indicate Bitcoin is going to gain against altcoins in the coming few weeks.
“Bull divergence, BTC Dominance, expecting BTC to gain over alts in coming weeks. Waiting for the top indicator to reverse (detects volume movements). ETH currently more bullish than other alts. In that regard, I believe we’re in an era of dual pumpage.”Source https://bitcoinist.com/heres-why-bitcoin-could-crush-altcoins-in-coming-weeks/

@Febo. However, has Barry Silbert unloaded before? It might be a mistake. He should unload his altcoins first, I reckon. He is one of the biggest investors of the 51% attackers' favorite Ethereum Classic hehehhe.

@Harlot. It was a sarcastic comment hehehe. Clearly the hackers should demand payment in Monero, however, why not use Coinbase blockchain analytics for what it was created for hehe.

I doubt that they would make Biden win the nomination after all of this time and when Bernie has the second most votes for nomination, they would move Biden aside for Cuomo, that doesn't seem like a very possible situation, I am pretty sure there would be a lot of in fighting going on inside the DNC for Bernie to get nomination if Biden doesn't get it.
But, I am 99% sure Biden will keep being the candidate for sure, he earned it and he wants it as well so he will keep it. At the same time Trump might be doing horrible stuff with the Covid and BLM situation right now which could make a lot more democrats to go out to vote and that is a great thing for Biden, yet at the same time Biden is not doing stuff to win, sure Trump works to lose but we need Biden to do something to win in order to get it, otherwise it will be Clinton deal all over again.
Every Democratic nominee has surrendered to Biden already. Also, Susan Rice has presently become the next favorite after Kamala Harris hehehe. It will be Susan Rice, I reckon. Biden will need the protection against Russiagate.

We have witnessed more than 3 Defi exploits and bugs in Ethereum that have ended in those smart contracts losing hundreds of thousands in coins or tokens. I reckon we compile all news articles about them in this thread to show everyone that we should think well before investing in them. Attackers raided the decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol Opyn yesterday, making off with over 370,000 USDC.
Opyn, which deals primarily with options for ETH, was subject to a double-spend attack.
"At the time of this post, we've found 371,260 USDC that has been stolen from these contracts," reads Opyn's post-mortem.
Analysis from security researchers PeckShield elaborates that the double-spend transpired due to an exploited smart contract bug, allowing attackers to openly plunder any and all USDC within Opyn’s smart contracts.Read in full https://decrypt.co/37671/blatant-bug-led-to-370000-defi-hack-say-expertshttps://blog.peckshield.com/2020/08/05/opyn/

It appears that Barry Silbert's wallets are full. He will begin step 2 next week. The mainstream media hype and pump campaign hehehe. Where is Tom Lee hehe. Are you ready? @Grayscale's national ad campaign kicks off next week with a TV ad on CNBC, MSNBC, FOX, and FOX Business. We're going to brrring crypto to the massesSource https://twitter.com/barrysilbert/status/1291710737291841543

Step 1. Someone anonymous does something outrageously egregious to cause harm to you (or someone you) know/love Step 2. Anonymous Someone asks you to give them something worth $10 million in return for undoing the bad thing
Q. Is step 3:
3a) Give them the $10 million. Why wouldn't you trust them? 3b) Give them nothing and take the hit. They've already proved they're total assholes
Step 1. Travel company should insist that payment should be in bitcoin. Step 2. Use Coinbase to send the payment for hackers. Step 3. Inform Coinbase what had occured and request for blockchain analysis.

@STT. It might be better to wait. Trump odds went to 4.50 on 2016 that was 2 days before the election day. We will certainly witness something similar on November. The results will also be similar or it might be something shocking. A landslide for Trump hehehe.

@Abiky. There was another 51% attack on this on 2018 or was it 2019, where the hackers were also successful in the double spend.
I reckon that this coin should be declared dead for investors.
In any case, I should not be speaking. I am an Aeon bagholder hehehehehe.

XRP is great for the long term, but if you think about the supply of coins I still have a little doubt. But as long as it is in the top 10 of coin marketcap, I think it will still be profitable. I disagree. XRP is not a longterm token for holding. Ripple can be ordered to be shutdown by the government. The company behind the platform controls 99% of the validators and anyone cannot be a validator without being included in their trust list. Long term holding for XRP is quite a risk just like any other cryptocurrency out there. Since this coin is owned by private company, their fate will be dependent on the company behind it. To have a better perspective between bitcoin and ripple, you can take a quick read in the below article and gauge for yourself, which one will be of advantage in your part for long term holding. https://www.investopedia.com/tech/whats-difference-between-bitcoin-and-ripple/Ripple is a very promising platform because of those companies collaborating with them, but one wrong move from one of its owners will make this network fall apart. Consider that if one day, one of its stakeholders wanted to cash out his large holdings or someone from their group exited without advising the group, what would be the future of their company? It is for you to decide how you are going to take that kind of scenario, and the possibility is always there. Agreed if you are talking only about price. However, real decentralized cryptocoins do not hold a similar type of risk that a centralized cryptocoin holds. Ripple can be shutdown by the American government, real decentralized cryptocoins cannot be shutdown.

Agreed. However, bitcoin's popularity is growing every year and brings on many new users, developers, traders and investors who have not learned the lessons that you have learned about the cryptospace.
I start from the premise that each person is personally responsible for his money and what he will do with it at any time. But I think we have some moral obligation to warn inexperienced people on the forum and in real life what Bitcoin is and what altcoins really are. I think things are changing for the better though, not only do users realize they need to be their own bank - but also that a good percentage of altcoins (more than 50% in the top 50) is in the red despite the rising price of BTC. I much agree. However, I come from the premise that in the world of finance and economics, there is something called the greater fool theory. It cannot be stopped and the market is only the way it is.

@alani123. Mail in ballots is another method to cheat easily for the incumbent because it controls the biggest political machinery. Trump might be saying he does not like it for Democratic states to allow it hehehe.
LOL.. Anyone remember the 2008 United States Senate election in Minnesota? That one is perhaps the prime example of an election stolen through the usage of mail in ballots. After the initial count, the GOP candidate (Norm Coleman) was leading by a few hundred votes. But then the Democrats started finding stacks of mail-in ballots (obviously all of them marked for their candidate Al Franken) in various places such as municipal thrash boxes, public toilets, bus stops.etc. In the end, Franken was declared the winner by around 300 votes (around 0.01%). I reckon Trump's election team are geniuses. Blame the enemy for what you are planning to do hehehe. They know anything Trump wants, the Democrats will want the other side. In any case, another delay for the declaration on Biden's vice president. Why is there a delay? Susan Rice hehehe? @figmentofmyass. Trump voters are not unpredictable because you know they will vote for Trump. The silent majority is unpredictable and also the patriotic liberals who want peace and order and to make America great again.
