Speaking of scams and bitcoin giveaways, I recently stumbled this post in the Beginners & Help

{Warning}: Fake Bakkt Giveway website

The length those criminals will do just to victimised unsuspecting people in the crypto verse. Just imagine couple of days from bakkt launch, those scammers are impersonating and trying to lure everyone in their game.

That's why each and everyone of us should stay away from this so called giveaways because 90% of them are really scam.

Just to be fair though, every investment has risk involved remember that.

One thing that separates crypto though is that this market is prone to manipulation that's why the risk factors multiply. And then this is a speculative asset as well, so there's a lot of dangers wherein you don't know how the market will move in the next couple of minutes and hours.

That's why if you are a investors, you really need to understand the circumstances behind this crypto market and then decide for yourself how much money you are going to invest on it.
6083  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Andy Ruiz vs Anthony Joshua II on: September 26, 2019, 10:25:28 AM

~ snip ~

We all know that career doesnt last forever and he will continue to get defeated not only with Ruiz then its over for his career.
If he would be beaten 2nd time on this rematch,he wont back to zero but regaining its popularity and recognition would already be hard.
We know on how people do react and sees fighters that arent already capable of. Preparation for the rematch is quite long and just right for them to be ready.

Losing twice to Andy Ruiz will ruin his career and he needs to go back again and reset everything. How many fights do he need to go to regain that confidence again? While the top HW are banging it's other as to who is going to be the number 1. While Joshua is fighting the left-overs before he can climb up the ladder again. So it's like going back to zero again because he had lost so much of his stature that his name is no longer in the middle of the discussions. Remember that this is not all about boxing, he needs to win this one so that his sponsorship with other brands would continue as well, Under Armour, British Airways and Hugo Boss and many more, so a definitely a must-win for him.

If Anthony Joshua II will suffer for the second time around under the punches of Andy Ruiz, I'm afraid there is no more climbing up the ladder again. There is no more talking of going back to zero and gradually climb up toward the throne and snatch the crown from whoever is wearing it. Joshua should have been reset by now. After he was humiliated in their last fight, he should have already considered his career zero. And in this upcoming rematch fight, Joshua should already be training with a zero or rock bottom mindset trying to redeem himself. Because this is his only chance. If he is defeated, and defeated convincingly by Ruiz, his career is dead.   

Or he could just end up fighting bums in the UK and never come back to the US soil, Lol. He will definitely goes out of the limelight and no more the attraction. This will be the biggest turn around in the last decade or so if he losses badly to Andy Ruiz.

But if he redeem himself, I don't know maybe we can see a trilogy? and let them finished what they started and the winner goes up against Wilder and then Fury?
6084  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Season on: September 26, 2019, 08:33:19 AM
Miami doesn't have a young roster that could fit OKC's rebuilding in my opinion. Plus their young players are tie with huge salaries as well so I don't know how Miami can get away with that one. And if ever they do trade, will Butler and Paul click? I mean two players with large ego, we have seen it didn't last in Houston with Harden and Paul.

I think the problem really was James, he wants t lead the team when he is not clutch as Paul, IIRC, Lin also played with the Rockets and at that time, Lin was already considered as a star but they don't blend well, therefore I think that Harden does not want a star player to play with him.

I still remember Harden's interview after they lost to GSW and he says he knows where the problem is. And I think it's clear now that Paul is, that is according to him, that's why Paul was booted out of Houston.

Now that Harden is with WB, let's see if I'm wrong, I'm really confident I am not.
WB and Harden I think is not going to build a great chemistry.

No worries mate, we have a nice discussions about that months ago when we hear that the two will team up in Houston. I'm on the side that it won't prosper as the two are ball hog.
6085  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: What do you actually spend your cryptocurrency on? on: September 26, 2019, 08:00:29 AM
I use bitcoin as an investment place only and I forget it to pay something that I want. Actually, I don't like to buy something through online shop and anything related to it. I'm scared if I buy a stuff and when it comes to my hand it is different and far from my expectation. I believe bitcoin will be use by most its user as an investment place. They will buy something with use money fiat that common to use and there is no someone who will forbid it.

Yes, most of the people today are seeing bitcoin as store of value and as a investment instruments. I mean the potential profit you can made in the next year or two is great, you just have one quality, have patience and not to be emotional.

Although mass adoption will happen if online merchants will start to accept bitcoin, but currently I'm not seeing it going to happen unless those people behind are also crypto enthusiast.
6086  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Spence Jr vs Porter on: September 26, 2019, 07:37:06 AM
Lots of smacktalking going on at yesterdays press conference

HEATED! Errol Spence Jr vs. Shawn Porter FULL FINAL PRESS CONFERENCE | Fox PBC Boxing
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pY7WAWLuN5k

It looks like Porter has the upper hand early in the press conference, however, Spence ended this event with lot of trash talk, and for me, won the war of words. Lol.

The co-main event is also going to be explosive, Dirrell vs Benavidez, but I'm going to Benavidez here, I think Dirrell is just too slow and doesn't have that KO punch.
6087  Economy / Economics / Re: Europe is against Libra. Who else? on: September 26, 2019, 06:37:59 AM
We cannot get a realistic answer to that unless the project has successfully launched, offered their product to the clients, and got back feedback from the users themselves. In the meantime, the problem with Libra is really the governments trying to get hold of it. I guess they will have to focus most of their efforts and negotiating skills to that or else they will say goodbye to their big project. I can imagine how Libra would really disrupt the world of currency if successful. And this is probably the foremost reason why the governments do not want it.
It seems facebook is not even bothered about this threat as I am still getting some update as regards their launch against 2020, so it’s like battle between Facebook and the government and I am waiting to see who would win, but I don't know why Facebook is so desperate about their Libra project if the really don't have some hidden secrete about it.

Of course, they are bothered by the news, however, Facebook is a big company and they have all the means necessary to push their agenda whatever countries or governments are going against them.

Before cryptocurrency became popular, they have been making enough profit and without cryptocurrency, they will still continue to make profit and remain world's largest social media platform with the largest users database, so if people say they don’t want their Libra coin, and government too are against it, then tell me why exactly they are trying to impose it on people. Libra coin seems like a threat to everyone and I don’t think it should be allowed.

Let's see, again, they wanted to go on the next level here, they are a billion dollar company, but they are not just sitting there, they wanted to create more money, because they are a business empire now and for sure they are going to go live next year, might be delay though, but definitely the people behind are greedy that they need to make it work in 2020.

6089  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Spence Jr vs Porter on: September 24, 2019, 07:13:31 AM

What makes this fight interesting is it has the making of a huge upset, I would love that to happen, and Porter can pull this one he has so many things to gain here, and nothing to lose, the press is writing him off, because of his past fights that did not live up to expectation, I hope we see another big upset here.

Every boxing match has the making of a huge upset, just one punch will change the outcome of the game. I think media is just doing a good job down playing Porter here, it created more hype and people will start to buy tickets and see how Porter will do to Spence, or if Spence has the tool to beat and go with Porter's style here.

Of course we love to see upset, specially the good odds being offer by lots of sport books on Porter. The question is are you willing to put money on Porter?

Some news sources says Miami Heat is also considering trading for Chris Paul. I don't know who they are planning to give up but with Paul's contract, it's probably going to be two or three players.    

Paul will have more success if he will play with the Miami Heat, they don't have a star player anymore and I think Paul might also consider playing in a team.

Isn't it Miami just do sign for Jimmy Butler? I think Jimmy could be consider as a legit star.

The OKC Thunder are now rebuilding, they would want a younger player in exchange of Paul as even if they will have Paul, it's not certain that they will be a playoff contender this coming season, Paul on the other hard could give a chance for the Heat to be in the playoffs as in the East, there's no much good teams compared to the West.

Miami doesn't have a young roster that could fit OKC's rebuilding in my opinion. Plus their young players are tie with huge salaries as well so I don't know how Miami can get away with that one. And if ever they do trade, will Butler and Paul click? I mean two players with large ego, we have seen it didn't last in Houston with Harden and Paul.

The infamous strike that cause the fight to be ruled as No Contest (NC).

At least the ladies give us something to cheer upon. Gratz to Carla Esparza for giving us a thriller and not tapping.
6096  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bakkt btc Coming are you accumulating? on: September 22, 2019, 09:02:01 AM
There's no more hype on bakkt as far as I can see, just look at the price, maybe someone is trying to manipulate, it could bring more money though as prior to the the launched more people and institutions can get inside because the price is below $10k.

So it's better to wait, at this point, I'm not that excited, but we knows, this market is very unpredictable and we can't really say if there's individual who are going to pour their money on the launch date, fingers crossed.
6097  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Google Claims Quantum Supremacy on: September 22, 2019, 08:38:07 AM
I think it's misleading to claim that Google achieved quantum supremacy as IBM is also doing some quantum computers experiment of their own.

As far as bitcoin goes, it even they achieved to crack AES-256 bit encryption, I'm sure there will be a consensus to go to the next cryptographic hash function to protect bitcoin.
6098  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Pacquiao Vs Mayweather 2 on: September 22, 2019, 08:16:59 AM
So I heard there's a possibility for a rematch. Pretty sure it would be boring again. Floyd will do the same, run and gun, nothing else. I'm more interested if Pacquiao will face a different one rather than watching a boring rematch. We won't expect Floyd to go all out, of course, that's Floyd, it's about money and clean record even with worse feedback because of his fighting style. Nothing new.

But we love to see a rematch that's all. Even if Pacquaio losses and not the favorite at least there's no more 'what if' situation and debates all over the boxing community. I think the ball in on Floyd's camp, Pacquaio still proves himself by winning against a young and game Keith Thurman. I'm sure Pacquaio will continue to fight, even Bernard Hopkins said that Pacquiao can break his record and says that Pacquiao can even fight well into his 50's, if he wanted to.
6099  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Regret In Changing A Bet Have You Experienced on: September 22, 2019, 07:45:58 AM
This really happens to my friend in a horse racing, he is making a good run of winning he was in a winner take all bet and he needs to only win one, before he buys a ticket a winner take all-ticket, he has doubt on his bet on the 7th race because he is not the main favorite, he opted  for the favorite of race 7

He wins bet on all the 6 races  and he just needs one win and he is confident that the horse who he picks for a replacement on the horse he first bet to win the race, in the end, he loses the big jackpot in the 7th race because the horse that comes out the winner happens to be the horse he replaced with the favorite, he loses $3000 jackpot because of that.

He had a hard time moving on with that experience.

I understand his frustration, I have been in similar situations many times before, I got all six race perfect however, I didn't put enough bet on my last race, I could have chosen the favorite, the second favorite and the third.

But I don't have enough money that time to make at least three or four horse bet on the last bet so that I can be at least on the safe side 4/12 on the last race, good probably of me winning. Unfortunately, the favorite didn't win the last race and so I should have won, in the end it all regrets and hard to get over with it.
