Clickbait article by the bitcoinist which makes an assumption that the billionaire was buying bitcoin to use for his philantrophic activites.
His tweet said he bought bitcoin. He was only begging for likes similar to any social media user who seeks attention.

News update. QuadrigaCX's affected users will not accept death as Gerald's Cotten escape hehehe. However, it is very suspicious that he died in a place in India where the syndicates there are experts in faking deaths according to some articles. A letter sent by law firm Miller Thomson to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) asks for the authorities to dig up and examine the body of Gerald Cotten, who reportedly died of complications due to Crohn’s disease at the end of December 2018. Cotten was 30 at the time.
“The purpose of this letter is to request, on behalf of the Affected Users, that the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (the ‘RCMP’), conduct an exhumation and post-mortem autopsy on the body of Gerald Cotten to confirm both its identity and the cause of death given the questionable circumstances surrounding Mr. Cotten’s death and the significant losses of Affected Users,” the letter reads.Source https://www.coindesk.com/request-for-exhumation-quadrigacx-creditors-ask-for-proof-that-cotten-is-dead |

He's a joke and his loud mouth has made him into a caricature that everybody wants to see get smoked. That's the legacy he's built for himself, the loudmouth clown the everyone wants to see destroyed.
Why are you hating on him lol? Floyd Mayweather has a loudmouth as well and so does a lot of other boxers. People are jealous of him because he's rich and lives a very fancy life. His mouth was loud when he became the champion and created the greatest moments in history. So what has changed now? He's still talented, loud-mouthed and rich! Don't forget the "talented" part. That is a common characteristic among casual fans of MMA hehehe. They forget that the loudmouth Conor helped build the UFC to where it is today. |

News update on Bitfinex's fight versus overreaching state abuse. A win for them on the case would be also a win for the whole cryptospace hehehe. In any case, I am shaking my head. Who is winning the case? The article appears to say that the NYAG is not going anywhere with this.  The New York Attorney General (NYAG) defends its ongoing investigation against Bitfinex in a Dec. 4 filing to the Supreme Court of the State of New York
The office argues that the state’s Martin Act gives it broad power to investigate potentially securities and commodities fraud before making a decision to file suit, and that Bitfinex’s challenge to this authority misperceives that power it has by law.
Challenges to jurisdiction are rebuffed by NYOAG by reference to evidence before the hearing court of relevant contacts with the state as recently as 2019.
In a blog post on its website, Tether responded to NYOAG's brief, claiming that the state "offers a highly misleading factual presentation" and fails to identify any victims of the exchange.Read in full https://www.theblockcrypto.com/post/50492/nyag-continues-pushing-for-its-case-against-bitfinex-calling-its-argument-forfeited-and-meritless |

What's in it for the end users? Are they supposed to be buying drugs with these shittokens? Why not just buy them directly with crypto?
Looks like it's nothing but profit share. So you'd need to trust them to stay open for long enough to earn a return on what you paid out which is a couple of years and for them to continue to pay you out. I can't see any mention of the tokens themselves having any actual value after buying them. I reckon profit share is better than most of the useless scam utility tokens on the markets today, assuming this is not an exit scam. Also, I speculate that it will be issued in a platform where it would be listed easily in its built in exchange like Waves. |

Clippers are giving the fans a surprise. They won 3 games straight on the road hehehe. However, does anyone know if they have beaten the spread versus the Wizards and the Raptors?

@nutildah. Can you change the poll? I suggest polling the wild cards Steelers versus the Buffalo Bills game hehe.

@pooya87. Why would he support Craig S. Wright's scam, however? There are many other cryptocoins and projects that would not hurt his reputation.

This might be the best representation of how the cryptospace should be in financial freedom, in seeking funding democratically and in removing the middleman.However, this might also be an exit scam hehehe.  Hydra, reportedly the largest darknet marketplace serving Russia and neighboring countries, claims it is seeking to raise $146 million through a token sale to fund a worldwide expansion. The sale is scheduled to launch Dec. 16, according to an investment memorandum on the site, which is hard to access without a special anonymized browser.
The tokens, priced at $100 each, will be available to purchase on the platform for bitcoin. A “package” of 100 tokens will provide a buyer with a 0.00333333 percent share of Hydra’s profit, the memorandum says. It makes no mention of which blockchain (if any) the tokens would run on.
Given the illicit nature of its business, Hydra’s token offering may be the most brazen ever, even compared to the ICOs that pushed the envelope of U.S. registration requirements in 2017. Russian news outlet Forklog warned that the sale could be an exit scam, a common occurrence in darknet markets.Read in full https://www.coindesk.com/russias-largest-darknet-market-is-hawking-an-ico-to-fund-global-expansion |

Do you agree on Yahoo's Kevin Iole article here? Simply short of calling Ruiz deliberately losing this fight? (At least that's why I interpret it). Andy Ruiz Jr. took the money and ran.
He took a fight that he had the capability of winning and he squandered it long before he ever made the trek to Saudi Arabia. He acted as if he’d hit the lottery on June 1 when he knocked out Anthony Joshua in the seventh round at Madison Square Garden in New York to win three of the four major heavyweight belts. On Saturday in Saudi Arabia, he paid for that dearly.
“I didn’t prepare how I should have,” Ruiz said. “I gained too much weight, but you know what? I don’t want to give no excuses. He won. He boxed me around. You better [expletive] believe I’m going to get in the [expletive] best shape of my life [for a third fight].”
Well, it’s too late for that.
This was a con job. Andy Ruiz defrauded the public by not even trying to get into shape. And then to say afterward that he’d try harder next time was one of the most galling things a fighter has ever said after a loss.
https://sports.yahoo.com/an-unprepared-overweight-andy-ruiz-jr-will-struggle-to-live-down-his-loss-to-anthony-joshua-000433363.htmlDo you think Kevin has a point here, or he is simply over reacting? That is a clickbait article. There might be some truth that Andy Ruiz did not train well and did not have the discipline for the training camp to the latest fight because the money might have made him lazy. However, writing an article that he did it to scam everyone is clickbait. If Andy Ruiz is not training well and as a result could not give a good fight to at least entertain the crowd who bought expensive tickets to the fight, then he is indirectly scamming everyone. Giving a less than quality performance due to negligence and less focused-training is a way of scamming fans. This article is more a conspiracy theory. In boxing however conspiracy theories could be very near to reality. For the record though, Kevin is a well respected boxing writer and a member of BWA (boxing writer association) that's why I posted the link here and not some random writers out there who would write for click-bait. So I consider him an insider and well knowledgeable, so it might be a conspiracy theory but yes, could be some truth in it. In that case, can the article be used to begin a case to sue Andy Ruiz because he scammed the fans or is it only the writer's opinion that Andy scammed? I'm not a lawyer but I guess one does not have to study law to know that news articles are not evidences. They cannot hold water in court regardless of what is written on it. Well, if the writer himself did the interview, and everything is recorded, and he heard him say that he sold the game to AJ or intentionally skipped regular training rounds to make sure he will not be fit on the fight day, then he could be the witness himself. But then I'm afraid no one will actually sue Andy for being in bad shape, putting up a bad performance, and losing. Yes that is why the article claiming a conspiracy theory that Andy Ruiz scammed the fans is clickbait and only an opinion written by a man who might be hating on the Mexican for losing that way. Maybe he made a big wager on him hehehe. |

@pooya87. I speculate that Tom Lee might be buying during the late months of 2017, holding on all of 2018 and might have begun to dump when bitcoin was on $14,000 this year.
The coins he might have left holding are BCH and BSV that were extracted from his private keys. He might also be scamming his clients to buy them hehehehehe.

It appears Monero's fight for Asic resistance is becoming unsuccessful. I reckon this might not be good for Aeon if they change to a SHA3 mining algorithm that would be compatible to K12. We might be the neglected one again. The mining hash rate for Monero has tripled following a recent change to the cryptocurrency's mining algorithm. The upgrade, called RandomX, is meant to make mining on the network more “general-purpose CPU” friendly. But the surging hash rate means Monero mining profitability has fallen off a cliff.Read in full https://decrypt.co/14421/monero-mining-profitability-plummets-following-network-upgrade |

@Aveatrex. What do you think? It is just another day in the cryptospace. Everyone move along hehehe.
Do people still got shock to these kind of news? I guess not. People been warned for how many times but they are hardheaded enough not to mind those basic advises and what comes next is a pile of people who whine and get angry because they've been scammed.  I reckon some of these news are not for the cryptospace followers and forum cave trolls like us who have seen it all hehe. It might be for everyone else to get more clicks. |

@bbc.reporter why in the world is Tom Lee hosting SV, and I hope this is the first and last time he’s associating himself with the BSV coin. Also I wonder will anyone be foolish enough to buy BSV coins because of this event, honestly I’m expecting a negative answer but it’ll be interesting to see what the community thinks of this event. I do not know, however, I am certain that it might be about making money or making back the money he lost on bitcoin and he now hates bitcoin hehehe. |
