This is just a tune-up fight for him, this will an easy fight as everybody else said. the only difference is, we won't know which round the fight end. Like what we have seen in Casimero's fight with Micah yesterday, it will end up badly for Magsayo's opponent if the fight will reach the long run and if the referee won't stop the fight immediately, his opponents might get some serious injury. Magsayo is now tuning for a world title fight and this fight would be a great start-up for him.

The hackers are so intelligent that they can be sold those coins like no one is watching them. the anonymity of each token is really hard to track and those hackers are clever enough to choose those coins to steal. Now the authority cannot help but only to watch those transactions being made one after another. If these hackers can be tracked with the current movement of their transactions, hacking of the exchanges may drastically lower to the point that no one gonna hack exchanges anymore because they are tracked sooner or later.

Anyway, this kind of hiring method is pretty old and they can be easily tracked now. Mostly, this kind of thing happened in the dark web because most of the underground transactions such as this are common there. Most of the time people who offer such services are just scammers and fraudsters but there is a tendency that you are talking to real criminals which were happened here in this topic. That's why of all the places on the internet you should avoid going to that place.

I am not hoping for this to happen.

I think Manny could fight other boxers and not this kind of an exhibition match. I know Manny and his game with every strong opponent he will face but I think it is better for Pacquiao to fight other professional boxers now and let this plan be his final match if he decides to hang the gloves, or maybe other rematches to prove that he's the best boxer of this generation.
Since yesterday, there are legit sources in different social media platforms that posted this fight so this will happen Smiley.

Main reason why he choose to fight this one is for the country (since he is always fighting for our country in the first place). He want to help those who are the most affected ones by this pandemic that is why majority or large portion of his winnings will be going to these people. What a kind fighter and politician we have Smiley.

This is the reason why he is fighting that man because we really need some funds for the charities and our fellow countrymen who has less fortunate may benefit from this fight. As of today, there are lots of videos of reviews in youtube regarding this fight and most of them don't really whether what the aim of this fight as long as this fght will happened in the middle east. I am also excited for this fight to happen and hope that they will fight like they used to be in the ring.

Congratulations to the Lakers!! Finals are real.

I've never thought that it's been 10 years since their last finals appearance.

Yeah! as expected because a team like the Lakers, cannot be affected with the other team that has been defeated by Nuggets with a 3-1 deficit. Now we have witnessed another history. I remember when how the Los Angeles Lakers beat Orlando Magic and Boston Celtics way back in 2009 and 2010. Now we are witnessing another history, I wonder If they can win another Championship after 10 years. I think whoever forms the two teams will win in the Eastern Conference Finals will give the Lakers a pain in the ass match since those two are pretty competitive that won't give an easy play to them.
5426  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What do think about skill games? on: September 25, 2020, 02:57:25 PM

There are other games that is not mainly about luck, but also skill and knowledge/experience. People also include Poker and Blackjack as one of those skill-based games, I don't know if esports is included in sports betting but it is another example. As you said it is a about gather information and putting your money into a team with a higher odds of winning, it is usually all about analyzing and experience and some luck.

If I'm not mistaken there are some competition of skill-based games rather than the normal competition of fighting games. I saw that there are lots of kids that has been competing in the national championships in this category of games. Whoever passed all the levels with the fastest time, they're the one get the highest score and will become champion on that kind of sport. I was sure that I saw it somewhere on youtube I just can't remember which channel was it.
5427  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Was 2017 the "Golden Year of Crypto"? on: September 25, 2020, 02:02:40 PM
I don't think so because the bull-run has only happened in the last days of December which is one of the great histories of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. However, I don't consider it golden age since it's not that long before it falls again after that trend. For me, 2017 was the best year fo bounties because almost project that appeared that year was legit just before they become shit and bankrupt. But most of the project that year was good and paying. there are lots of bounty participants who got their biggest history of received payment in bounties.

One of the luckiest countries that don't implement a tax on Bitcoin is our country. It doesn't overwhelm us with some high payment tax if we want to use BTC rather it only gives us some advice that crypto investment is not reliable. whatever they say about it, as long as they won't put any unnecessary tax about it. We can see some countries instead of giving their full support to bitcoin, they increase the tax on it. They didn't follow these lists of countries that don't tax bitcoin gains.

5429  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why do people keep playing unlicensed, illegal slot machines? on: September 24, 2020, 03:31:12 PM
Our neighbor had this kind of slot machine and they called it "Bar Bar" it is one of the exact slot machines you are talking about. In our village, people always want to play this game, and lots of kids are addicted to this. that's why the authority won't allow this game and whoever caught having this in their house will be fined and sometimes if they caught, they served months of sentence in jail like what happened to our neighbor. You can see in this picture what I am talking about. note: these are not my neighbors, there are different people but the same illegal activity.  Grin Grin

You see, more than a decade is not really that long. especially we had some serious misconceptions along the way until we have reached this far. lots of criticisms, negative speculation, and other bad stuffs threw at us throughout these years. However, we have a long way to go to see the result of each of our works to promote Bitcoin and Blockchain technology. The beginning is always hard or difficult but after this long run and after the misconceptions are cleared, we will see some great news one after another and no more criticisms since people will know the truth that Bitcoin and blockchain were only being used by those crooks to give bad names to this industry.

So what shall I say? HEAT in 5? Will the HEAT would end the series in 5 to rest early? The game tonight was really exciting, it was Heat who are leading most of the time but Celtics didn't give up, they have so much talent but heat was more on a good chemistry as a team, a rookie putting his team on his shoulder? That's the big news.

The game tonight was unexpected because everybody eyes's are on Jimmy Butler but suddenly the one of the youngest rookie player in the league took the spotlight by giving all his best, managed to out scored Boston up to the final quarter and win the game which give them the lead 3-1 in the Eastern Conference Final.

Tyler Herro has made an outstanding record that not even the NBA all-star has ever made on their career. He passes Wade's record for the youngest who got 20+ points in a playoff game and in the Eastern Conference Final.

5432  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin a sure legacy on: September 24, 2020, 01:20:37 PM
I agree that bitcoin is an asset in the future, even for the children and grandchildren, it can be inherited with the condition that the bitcoin wallet is included with the grandchildren, if the wallet is hidden, the children and grandchildren cannot feel the inheritance.

Yeah! this is no doubt the case for the one who really wants to keep it as a legacy to their children's in the future. However, unlike any other assets, Bitcoin should keep along with the instructions to use it. because there are some possibilities that the one who will take it in the future won't have the knowledge to use it. This discussion has been posted for about a year right now, I'm sure the topic about how we can successfully save btc to make it as an inheritance to our kids is here. You are free to search it here in bitcoin discussion.

Yeah! crminals also have some advantages with this so-called new normal. In our city alone, shooting incidents is highly intraceble. Those criminals can get away easily now. Even the CCTV cannot give us any enlightenment about the crime and most of the time we can not see them through the CCTV's installed in the city proper. It is because of the damn mask people doing crimes cannot be trace that easily anymore because everyone in the town is wearing the damn mask.



This is just an alibi! they need think another alternative method or all those criminals can shoot whoever they want even though in the middle of the day in the city proper.
5434  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is Addictive...Pay Attention to your Gambling Habit!!! on: September 23, 2020, 03:25:19 PM
My best solution to prevent to become addictive is to create a paper wallet which I cannot easily reach and transfer 50% of my winnings to. So if I lost after that, I am not able to redeposit all to chase my losses. For me this works very well.

That's a clever Idea and you are the only one doing that so far. I see, when you already transferred some BTC to your paper wallet, you will have some hard time getting it back or I may sat it takes a lot of time that would make you stop playing whenever you run out of money in the gambling site without getting some money from that paper wallet. However, If the gambler pursue to play even though he runs out of money from playing and decide to get some BTC in his paper wallet, he may ended up losing everything inside that wallet. You may say this has not happen to you but I was just talking about the tendency that this could be happened if greed cannot be stopped.
5435  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What would happen if you invested a $1 in Bitcoin every day for 5 years on: September 23, 2020, 03:03:07 PM
This has been discussed several years ago, they have made some deep analysis of when someone invested $1 every day in BTC. well, everytime the price of bitcoin decrease in the market, when you only invest this much everyday it won't really matter that much to you. Therefor, this is one of the good investing method you can do with bitcoin. you won't really care if how this investment end because the amount of money you are putting to your BTC wallet is not that much and who really cares about a dollar in our every day life?

I'm currently thinking if this idea will work after 5 years form now? I wonder what would be the price of bitcoin after those years. will it continue to increase, or it will not budge in the $10,000 mark like what we have seen today in the market.

Celtics vs Heat game 4. Choose your pick,,.. .

can the Celtics even the series here? What do you think about Butler, can he lead his team for a win and make the series 3-1 in favor of them?
It's gonna be a great game to watch again, the last 3 games was all an exciting game to watch, I have put my bet on the Celtics -3 to win in game 4, what's yours? and why?

We can't be sire about that tomorrow since we have seen how the Boston Celtics handled game 3 and out score Miami throughout the end of the game. Now we have seen some star players choked at the playoff games and those players are not new and inexperience. they've just lose their way to win the crucial games they need to advance. Let's just hope that Butler won't be that way and he can still comeback to win game 4 tomorrow.



5437  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will bitcoin transaction fees be too high in the future? on: September 23, 2020, 01:52:30 PM
This is the chart of Bitcoin's Avg. Transaction fee: https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/bitcoin-transactionfees.html

Right now the median fee is about $2. After lots of halvings the reward won't be enough to satisfy the miners. I guess that after a decade, bitcoin will be more widespread, as a result, more transactions will occur every second. Won't this increase the median fee? If it does, bitcoin will start being a not-so medium of exchange. Imagine paying $5 for a transaction. Even paypal doesn't charge that much.

You have it backward man, as I am typing this post, some developers are already giving us the best of lightning network to be launched. If the lightning network is fully developed, we will see some acceleration in the BTC transaction and the payment will be drastically decreased. it is not the way you think of it. after a few years from now, we will see a major difference both in transactions fees and the transaction speed if they fully initialized and successfully fixed all the current bugs of this technology.
5438  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Charlo vs Derevyanchenko on Sept 26 on: September 23, 2020, 01:15:09 PM
I give Charlo the win in this coming fight if nothing goes wrong cause we have already seen how some clean record boxers got their first loss when they understimate their opponents in the ring. this is the most devastating loss for Charlo if he ever lose to Derevyanchenko in this upcoming fight.

I remember when Anthony Joshua lose to Ruiz on their first fight, he had the wrong impression to himself and devastated lose to the Mexican man.


But after their re-match, he regains the heavy weight title again.

I haven't heard about Password Spray Attack, maybe because they are not used often in this field. Can you please give us more enlightenment about this thing? for the brute force attack, I often heard it, and sometimes they are successful to hack some weak passwords accounts. As you can see, until now there still some users who don't use complex passwords for their accounts and used only single password for their multiple social medias accounts. In that case, they are often victim to brute force attacks especially when they used easy passwords to guess.
5440  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Casimero vs Micah - Sept 26 on: September 22, 2020, 02:39:40 PM

I think the toughest opponent for him is Inoue, Guillermo Rigondeaux is good but he is not perfect anymore, Guillermo Rigondeaux is fast and good in terms of defense but Casimero is smarter now, he knows how to do the right timing to beat a faster and defensive fighter. Also, I don't like how Rigondeaux  fight as is not a fighter who likes to fight toe to toe, it ain't fun that way TBH.

Let's just hope we can see a fight between him and Inoue when they finish their fight with their current opponents. Now is the time to give our full support to our fellow countrymen Casimero. The only reason I can think why they've cancelled the fight between him and Inoue, is that they are looking to gather more popularity for this boxers so that they can gather more money in the future if he can be like the top popular boxers in the chart. Because if Casimero beat him, his popularity will decrease drastically and that will lose their chance to promote his next fight up to the maximum revenue.

Based on this article: https://www.badlefthook.com/2020/6/1/21276591/naoya-inoue-next-fight-vs-john-riel-casimero-rescheduled-new-date-september-2020-boxing-news

Bob Arum really wants to make this fight happen but I am sure the case is not like that because they are afraid to lose his fighter's popularity just like that.
