My plan is to build cool things, help onboard friends and family, accumulate Bitcoin, and wait for a massive overbought opportunity to sell a stack and spend my free time doing good things I want to see happen in the world. It's tough to know when enough is enough, but I guess we all have our own numbers in mind. I just hope that my little projects and onboarding attempts make a difference to someone out there. Would be great to know I've helped someone avoid eating crickets in the future.

Suddenly the market seems a little too bullish, but I suspect that the recent FUD campaign over mtgox funds being released (it was clear they weren't going to be to any of us claimants, but for whatever reason the rumors were strong) led to a buying opportunity that the big boys couldn't resist. There's definitely a lot of people on the sidelines waiting for the next bull run to start. I'm not one of them though. Dollar cost averaging is your friend and now is the time to be doing it.

I was surprised to hear Dana White say that this is a good fight. He seems to think that Anderson Silva can outbox Jake Paul even with the age difference. I'm not so sure, but the fact that Dana thinks it's going to be a good fight gives me a little hope that Anderson Silva can overcome the obvious hurdles in his path to win this fight. As much as I want to see a KO, I really hope that Jake doesn't KO Silva. It's such a bad look to fight with that age difference... I really hope Silva's old man strength comes through.

Chimaev needs to be careful, if the rumours are true he's the one that caused the altercation behind the scenes, and then to miss weight, and just smile shaking it off isn't a good look. I'm not saying be a company man (although that has proven to be a good tactic for many fighters), but seriously show some respect.
Honestly, if you miss weight by that much it should be an automatic forfeit. So, not just cancelling the fight, but forfeiting it. Since the other person has put in the work, yet you missed by that amount. That's ridiculous. I'm not sure if he's underestimating this bout, or he just wants to make quick work of Diaz by knocking him out, and the added weight would help with that.
What's the odds on Chimaev gassing, and Diaz actually having a chance through volume? I'd love to see that honestly. Chimaev goes all out in the first round, fails to finish Diaz, and then Diaz just out points him or potentially even finishes him. It would be the ultimate finger from Diaz. People underestimating him saying he's going to get crushed, obviously him, and Dana not seeing eye to eye any more, and Chimaev being the fighter that Dana is putting the most stock into. It would almost be poetic if it played out like that.
There's no way the fight goes on with Chimaev missing weight by that much. That's so unprofessional that I didn't even see it coming. Chimaev serious lost respect and possibly his big shot at being the guy in the UFC. The fact he's smiling just shows that it hasn't set in yet how much he just screwed over his career. No doubt Dana White is pissed and already looking for the next big thing to put Chimaev on the mat. It was wrong for Dana to put them up against each other in the first place, so I think this falls in the category of play stupid games and win stupid prizes. |

No doubt offensive production, but Melo also needs to adjust to his defense, younger star might expose him and take that advantage, giving him a tough game, treating him as the weak side to make or create a play on his side.
kind of coach doesn't want to see having someone inside as a liability.
Seems not appropriate for me to expect Carmelo Anthony to adjust his defense at the current point of his career. He is almost on the retirement period. Why expect him to adjust on his weak side wherein the best thing he can do is to take advantage of what he's capable to do. The roster can be balance with both offense and defense. No need that all players are good in defense especially if Melo is on the lineup. If struggling, then sit him out. He is currently averaging less playing time now compare to his usual. No need to give him 30MPG or something. Yes, the league already knows that Carmelo is more of an offensive kind of player and even if he tries on adjusting his weak side, that will just mess his entire play because he will mostly try to improve his weakness rather than boosting up his strengths. Along with that fact, the whole league is looking at him as an additional asset in terms of offense because he can still give good numbers at his age. The problem is that he's a liability on defense. He had flashes of effort last year, but it's clear that he's out there to hit some threes and pad his stats. I'm fine with it, but he's going to have difficulty landing an offer from a franchise he wants to be a part of. Dame got him into Portland and LeBron got him into LA, but I think he's running out of friends to get him roster spots and I personally believe he's been blackballed from the NBA, so without a superstar making a push to sign him, he may have played his last game in the NBA. |

OP, Trust Dice's official representative here, Coinbox1, has already responded to your allegations with a lengthy explanation. It's on the Batman x TrustDice! Win Free spins and more! official thread, where you also raised your concern. It seems the official representative of Trust Dice has counter allegations against you. You're now being accused of having ill-intentions. You're now being accused of misleading us with partial screen grabs. Would you care to respond to it? It seems like the time to have a dialogue is here for the OP, but no response on the allegations that they are using partial screen grabs to mask their intention of defrauding the casino. I think we're owed a bit of an explanation and to see your response to these allegations. The amount of money is so small, I imagine they've had to pay their employees more to deal with this. That leads me to believe they aren't doing something crazy, but feel that they acted appropriately and all procedures were followed. Watching how this develops from here. |

A lot of things waste a lot of money in this world. Think of all the poor people in this world who are taken advantage of by having them value designer clothes or take loans to buy fancy cars. Elon's plan will not only make him and his investors a ton of money, but it will also increase the chances of humanity surviving long term exponentially. Even if it is a failure, it's his own money and that of those who believe in him that he's wasting.
If you want to talk about stupid wastes of time and money... Think of all the people who wait outside shoe outlets for hours to pay insane prices for shoes... How many man hours and dollars are wasted there? Elon > Nike

It is obvious that with these technological advancements also come some negativities for a lot of people, great example outlined here are gamblers who cannot control their gambling urges. Usually self-exclusion solves this problem. But there are still cases wherein people can access other gambling platforms due to a weak self-exclusion system. By this time, it would be best if the gambler would seek advice from a psychologist regarding their condition. Intervention really is the key and perhaps the last resort for addicted gamblers if they keep on finding ways to gamble even though they want to stop.
I think this falls under the category of a fool and their money are quickly parted... Obviously whenever there's a chance you can win a ridiculous sum of money, someone out there is losing it. Gambling is a good example of that. A lot of people have to lose a lot of money in order for the casino and all of it's employees to make money. It's the gamblers that pay for it all with the hope that they're the exception. I honestly think sports betting is the only fair way to gamble and even then, the odds are setup so the house never loses. |

I feel a little bad for Nate Diaz. He's got one hell of a fight coming up and his opponent is likely to smash him. I don't hear anybody thinking Nate can win this and it's clear that he's being thrown to the wolves for wanting out of his contract so he could fight Jake Paul. I'm excited to watch the fight and am hoping for an upset from the Stockton native (close to where I grew up), but I honestly don't think he has a chance. I just hope he loses without taking too much damage, since the UFC is doing him dirty.

To be honest, I find this fight unfair for Silva because he deserves a better opponent which is a real boxer. We all know that he's a promising boxer so it will be better for him to face someone who has the same stamina and same sports description. For me, Jake Paul's sports are quite different from Silva's so he should be facing an opponent that would fit his stamina as well.
I would agree that this is an unfair fight for Silva. He's clearly too old to be boxing and he was never a great boxer to begin with. Watching his boxing matches, he almost never defends himself and relies on throwing haymakers at unskilled opponents. This should be an easy win for Jake despite what people will try to bill this as. MMA, Silver wins easily. Boxing, I think he's a huge underdog. His skills are less polished than Jake's, he's old as hell, and he hasn't been training like Jake has. He's throwing his reputation to the wolves for a paycheck. I hope it's a big one for him. |

Have you checked out purse.io? It's a great site that I've used for years and allows you to buy people's wish list in exchange for crypto. There's usually a discount though of around 10%. I've used it mostly to buy things off amazon with a discount. There are times when I've gotten as much as a 30% discount on items. Worth looking into... Maybe not so much if you're trying to buy the wish lists, since there is a discount, but worth checking into if you're into this.

Any interest? McDonald's Monopoly peel and win stickers. Just seeing if anyone is interested in obtaining McDonald's Monopoly peel to play stickers from Australia? The promotion began on the 31 st August and runs until the 23 rd of October. Up for grabs are Chance Card, Instant Win, some properties. Prices? Am thinking either auction plus BIN or, some auction some BIN only. Codes sent via https://privnote.com/ to ensure privacy. I didn't know they still did this. Do they still do this in the United States or was that practice ended when the massive scam came to light? For anyone who isn't aware of the McDonalds employee that finessed the system and used the program to steal millions, it's a great story. I believe there is even a Netflix documentary about it that's worth the watch (I think I saw it on Netflix). I'm a bit surprised they still do this, but maybe their international standards are a bit more strict. |

Our sincere condolences to the family and British people
I can't say I'm a huge fan of the Queen, the UK, their government, or the royal family... but, I recognize the Queen was loved by many and lived a long influential life that left her known by a great number of people. I think that's to be respected. She made an impact and there are no doubt many tears being shed today as this news propagates. Today is indeed a sad day but 96 years is a hell of a long time to be alive. The changes she's seen... I hope there are many life celebrations in her name in the coming weeks as people pay their respects. |

I don’t consider Bitcoin to be a store of value. It’s a highly speculative asset. When I think store of value, I think things with a very long history of increasing value. That leaves the S&P 500 as the best place to store money, followed by owning your home, and then things like artwork or gold jewelry. Bitcoin is a bet on a new emerging asset class.

Anyone who has seen the interview with Patrick Beverley? The reporter asks what are his thoughts about playing with Lebron and Davis. And you'll find it funny with what he has answered. He said, "They're playing with me."  --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=veFBxgrwN6IThat's the video from NBA on ESPN channel on YouTube. I'm not affiliated with them, it has 1M+ subs. Typical delusional Pat Bev stuff… I really hope he isn’t a starter for them this year. An article also came out today talking about how Utah sent Donovan Mitchell to Cleveland as payback for him poisoning the team chemistry after Rudy Gobert gave everyone covid. Not a good look for Utah or Mitchell really. |

What about you?
I like that many people here get paid to participate. What other website can you make a post from the toilet and earn a few dollars? It's a shame that the quality of content isn't taken into account in these payout structures, but it's still a cool thing. Granted, it could be improved upon a great deal and benefit more users if it were managed by the forum, but it's still the reason a majority of posts are made here and that keeps things humming along as the information base continues to grow and gives users a chance to support projects and products here by purchasing them with funds from forum participation. |

so Cash App or Zelle which one ? and your use reviews please and thank you.
I've never used Cash App, mostly because I assume I'd need to install some sort of app on my phone and sign up for something. I have used Zelle, because it's included with my bank so using it just meant logging into my bank's portal and sending a payment. No signups, no app to download. Just logging in to the account I already use and select Zelle transfer. I've used it many times actually and have always found it to be a smooth and easy process. So I recommend Zelle over Cash App, especially if you already use a bank that supports it. ApplePay trumps all though.  |

We can't stress that enough, he needs to transform his body, gain some weight but at the same time, not losing his speed. Just pure muscle added to his frame will make his stronger and as you have said, can't be bullied by the big men.
Eventually his body will mature and he will fit on the requirement in the NBA. Giannis has transformed his body and has improve through time, so it's possible for him to improve and might become an NBA superstar. I don't think Chet will ever be as big as Giannis. More likely he'll suffer from injury issues like all other paper bodied athletes before him. Basketball is too hard on the body for these skinny guys to make it at the highest level. There's a reason guys like Taco Fall or Bol Bol can't ever live up to their hype. Running so much is detrimental on the body when you're so big and when you're paper thin and 7 feet tall, it just doesn't work for long. It seems like Chet's body has already started to fail him. I don't see him playing much in the NBA. |

The mining feedback loop of more hashrate and higher prices with lower rewards has to come to an end at some point. I imagine when it does, there will be a death spiral of price and hashrate that lasts quite a long time and likely bankrupts some of the largest players in the game. Will that happen this cycle? Probably not. It is inevitable though. The decoupling of this feedback loop will happen and it will hurt for a long time. I think we've got one more cycle to go before this becomes an issue though.

Solana has an uphill battle to prove itself after the latest issues. I don’t see it having a strong price increase for quite some time. It’s likely in my opinion to drift lower over the next year or two before shooting to new highs with the rest of the market in 2025. Until then though there will be pain. Best to hold Bitcoin and wait for the bull.
