There is a reason why he took less years and less money, he is a fmvp player and he could go for 35% of all cap space type of contract on his next contract, he has been in the league less than 10 years so he can't get that supermax yet, he can get max which is 30% of all cap space which he did took from clippers but if he plays 2 more years then he will be eligible to get 35% of all cap space instead of 30% which will be significantly higher in multi millions. He has been in the league for 8 years though so why didn't he do a 2 year deal and then a supermax extension?

Well, because clippers needs to have 3 years to get his bird rights, if a team has the bird rights to a player they can pay him a lot more, which means if he plays for 3 years that will be 11 years so he can get the supermax plus clippers will have bird rights and give him even more.

This contract is looking like it is not ideal for him but he is just making a way for the next contract to be gargantuan for him. Like maybe 40+ even over 50+ by that time per year. Then he will sign a 4 year deal easily because he will be quite old in 7 years but clippers will probably pay him anyway if things work out.

5284  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Tether (USDT) supported gambling platform? on: July 09, 2019, 05:38:05 PM
I think it would be very weird to play with tether instead of fiat or crypto. I am sure there is a niche playing place somewhere in the crypto where people actually want to play with tether instead of crypto or fiat but that must be a small number of people. If you want to play with crypto and stay hidden you get to play with bitcoin and many other coins, if you are fine with playing dollars then there are billions of places that you can gamble as well, the only small amount of place that tether can help out with is playing with dollars but still staying hidden.

I think it should exist, I think it should get some attention as well, after all every type of investor and user is welcomed in bitcoin casino world but I think it would just not be as big as the others, just a niche stuff.
5285  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Season on: July 08, 2019, 04:52:01 PM
NBA teams do not like first round exits for some reason, I don't know why, you are getting more money, maybe its because okc was spending too much money, that seems to be the real issue with them. They have been over luxury tax for a long time and still only reached the first round, however it was obvious for them to stay at first round or at best second round, they were never a championship team at all, so to think that they were spending money knowing that and now stopped would mean they had enough.

Maybe they want to get back on under cap space and just focus on rookies and so forth and build again so they could just stay under the cap space and not pay 100+ mil extra money for now. That seems like only logical reason to give away Paul George for just some picks.

5287  Economy / Economics / Re: Is Tether Supply a driver of Bitcoin Prices on: July 04, 2019, 05:12:30 PM
I think one crucial information we are forgetting that tether has a lot of trading capital covered in many parts of the world. Stablecoins didn't came out until late in bitcoins and crypto currencies life and after it came out it was almost instantly accepted as the token of dollars just to not cash out like we always do but to keep it in exchanges.

So, that is why right now they are fueling trading instead of just bitcoin prices. When bitcoin volume goes up the price of it usually goes up as well so it has an indirect relation there but I feel like what stablecoins managed more than anything is to keep the volatility in the bitcoin world instead of making us deal with banks, that is why at first it was super loved since it took the place of banks and what else do we love than getting rid of banks Cheesy.
5288  Economy / Economics / Re: What is the current tax status of crypto-currency in the USA? on: July 04, 2019, 04:43:51 PM
You may think that decentralized ones are far superior and better to avoid taxes and give your information to wrong hands (lets be honest there has been multiple instances of your info stolen from government happened in just past decade).

However, people do not feel the same way and willing to risk their security for the comfort and ease of use. With coinbase which is a shady company dealing your information to others and giving it to government as well and basically allows you to be watched by everyone for every move you do is still better than most decentralized ones when it comes to actually cashing out your money to dollars. Its both easy and also fast for it and there is still no better way. Decentralized ones still require a ton of work on cashing out process plus volume still sucks compared to others.
5289  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Just a thought on: July 04, 2019, 04:20:57 PM
I guess ethereum is already quite big, it was created by different people but has so much potential and so many use cases that it became the second (and sometimes third) biggest coin, plus ripple was created very early on as well and it has been on the second spot as well (mostly on third) even though I hate them.

So, long story short if ethereum or ripple were created by satoshi himself and were the first coins I am pretty sure they would become this big as well, maybe the whole market would change and prices would change and so forth but in the long run they would be on the top that is for sure, even if that means less marketcap and not improving crypto world. Being the first one always has privileges, bitcoin is clearly not the best coin in technical sense but it is the most expensive one because its the first one.
5290  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: can shit coin be the best coin if the project and product is real ? on: July 04, 2019, 03:52:56 PM
It depends on how much funding they got from the ICO. I mean if they have enough money to actually build the project they always wanted to build and hire the people that would make it a reality and then they can do it.

For example, an ICO gets funded for 50 million dollars, you may think that is a lot of money and to you and me that is a lot but if you hire a coder for 200 thousand dollars a year which is a bit veteran but not the best salary out there (50-60 for intern-junior levels, 120 for sr levels and 200k for experts, 500k+ for CTO level people) and that is in highest paying place silicon valley.

So, lets assume you are there and you have a salary total of 5 million dollars a year, you will have trouble paying them all considering legal costs and business costs and taxes and rents etc etc come to play as well. But if you can make it work somewhere else and hire the best people and continue on your path then yeah you can make it back to over ICO prices of course.
5291  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Is Binance the Best Exchange for Crypto trading? on: July 04, 2019, 03:11:31 PM
I think binance is best exchange for altcoin trading, there are better ones for local reasons to exchange between crypto to fiat for
example, binance doesn't have fiat globally, I think they managed to open one up in Singapore and that allows you to have it on some European countries as well as Singapore itself but its not global.

So, if you want Swiss franc (or whatever their currency was) then binance is not your best bet, you need to find a local vendor for it, or if you are in USA then binance in general is not the best for you.

However, if you want to trade between eth-bnb then yeah sure they are definitely best, you want to go btc-ltc ?
Sure they are clear bests at that. So, why you need an exchange does change the answer a bit, not everyone uses exchanges the same way.
5292  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bittrex Review - The Best Cryptocurrency Exchange? on: July 04, 2019, 12:17:20 PM
Now that is more detail about an exchange than I have ever seen before, you have a knack for creating a detailed article and quite possible answer all question one may have about a currrency exchange and that is a great thing.

You still need to write with more ... "bigger words"? I don't know what the term is but you have probably seen other investment or financial related articles and how they write like they are in some Shakespearean but financial play and how their words are not regular words you use in your everyday life?

Well, that makes them look professional, maybe you want to write the way we speak (like we are doing right now) and that is fine and can reach to more people and could make them feel comfortable but using those professional language also helps you look more trustworthy as well. Btw.. no bittrex is totally not the best one at all.
5293  Economy / Economics / Re: The problem bitcoin solves on: July 04, 2019, 07:59:41 AM
I think the end clearly states what needs to be said about the comparison. Sometimes we fight among ourselves on what should be done for adoption and what should be done for lower fees and all that but we forget the fact that the enemy is fiat and compared to fiat even this bitcoin without any changes is much better.

The whole idea of bitcoin was to create a decentralized currency which is more than enough to be better than any national currency out there including euro/dollar/yuan because even with that type of strong backing they are still showing us how weak the currencies are and how vulnerable people can be when banks and governments work together to make sure rich gets richer while poor stays poor. With bitcoin if rich wants to be richer they need to make poor richer as well.
5294  Economy / Economics / Re: List of Decentralized/Centralized Exchanges on: July 03, 2019, 05:39:45 PM
I think all of these decentralized ones (or dex for short) are not getting more attention because people still couldn't find one with
enough volume and coins that others have. I mean look at binance and look at all the other exchanges here, most of them are literally just a place where you have to put some order in and wait.

I have seen one with 18 bitcoin volume in the past 24 hours, 18 bitcoins! I mean how do you really expect people to join when you are that small and have that little volume, one person can change the whole order book in seconds and change the price right away. I just hope one day there will be a dex that has like a billion dollars in volume across the board and then we can actually have a conversation about if binance is better or not but in these situation we live in, binance will trump all of them.
5295  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Legal Permits/ Legalties in creating Cryptocurrency on: July 03, 2019, 04:20:12 PM
Depends on where you are and what you want to start your crypto with . For example if you want to have no headaches at all and do not want to follow any rules at all, cyprus literally has a gray economy zone where you can just open a company, do whatever the hell you want and you can just keep paying your taxes and they won't ask you anything, there are other places like that in the world as well.

However, if you want to be incredibly legit then you can have  STO with the permission of a government branch with their eyes on you and you can provide all the proofs and even bills for what your funds going for and not scamming people it can become super legal but that would cost you a lot and limit you as well. So its not really that hard to achieve but its totally annoying to become super legit.
5296  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will You Trust a Project Announce BY A Legendary Member on: July 03, 2019, 03:03:30 PM
I think I wouldn't care at all, that is the last thing I will check about a new project, I literally do not even check what member level a person is when replying to them, to me those are just showing how long you have been here and that's it.

All I care is if the project actually worth something or not, if I like the project that is not even enough for me to invest neither, I literally would like to get others opinions on it as well, if a coin is liked by me and everyone else I know and then there is a good community behind then why would I care if the topic was created by a newbie or a legendary? That would make no sense at all, if a coin is good then a newbie could still pull it off, if it is bad then even a legendary would not be able to get me invest into it at all.
5297  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How does a perfect ICO Team looks like for you? on: July 03, 2019, 02:29:38 PM
First of all it should be filled with people that are active. I know that sounds like a no brainer thing but I have seen so many ICO's with team members who are just there for the name and they are mostly just working with the main core owners on some ideas and some funding stuff but that's it.

You can have just 10 people to work on your team and you will still be better than anyone ever. Everyone has to have their own positions and works cut out for them and they need to do it every single waking hour of the day. You have a community manager? Well that person has to talk with people all around the social media and bitcointalk and wherever else all day everyday, you have a CTO and a coder? They have to code and make it better every single day, you have marketing expert... well you got it. Most of the teams just exist as a team but we see very little action from them, we need actual concrete action.
5298  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you have any strategic way in playing poker? on: July 03, 2019, 12:04:28 PM
Sometimes when playing that strategy changes in our minds, maybe there will be a lot of strategies when the card we get is good enough but if the card is bad, maybe there won't be a strategy that crossed my mind.
We don’t always have to adjust to the opponent’s strategy that is cowardice if you ask me mate. I believe the opponent with all his strategies also have a weak point to, and this is where the focus should be and that way our strategy overrules everything played. This is just an assumption though, not completely factual.

I believe solely that poker is just a game of chance and frankly speaking, no kind of strategy can ever make any player win except that it is luck. But it’s always better to try though than not to try at all. I have been playing poker for many years now and I cannot boast that I have won a lot but am glad for the opportunities I have gained during the process.
5299  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cryptocurrency In The Gambling Industry: All You Need To Know About Bitcoin on: July 03, 2019, 09:23:17 AM
Both the positive and negative things involved in Crypto gambling If you are using the cryptocurrency as a bet then it will not get out from your pocket it always involved in online things so I cannot worry more about your loss but in sometimes you definitely e no idea about how we can do at the time only it will be go like negative things for us
I don’t think I have anything negative to say about cryptocurrency gambling, it has been the best ever and if at all there’s any negative aspect, I believe its minor. Cryptocurrency has given opportunity to all gamblers to gamble anonymously and this is a dream come true for those of us who have been gambling from the days of traditional gambling. It was a wish that came through. I personally desired a time I would gamble without anyone knowing or tagging me since gambling reputation has been tarnished.

Also, cryptocurrency gambling has truly been cheaper, can never be compared to fiat gambling and this has given an opportunity to become a gamer. I think all this is enough advantages or positivity enough for cryptocurrency gambling.
5300  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is it possible to trade WITHOUT exchange? on: July 03, 2019, 07:33:39 AM
I think there was this new trade going on via some google chrome extension and it was looking like it was a great innovation.
I don't remember the name of it at all but at that time it wasn't liked by many people because of the security risks. There was no middleman involved and there was no need for it, you put your order there and someone buys it and thanks to the chrome extension it was switch from yours to theirs, kinda like the eth wallets we have like mew and metamask and so forth but with the option of trading as well.

If that were to happen today with good security I bet they would get so much attention however even mew and likes gets hacked once in a while so its a very very risky one, that is why exchanges became so big since they are much more trustworthy.
