It is very headshaking if a person trusts an unregulated casino more than a regulated one where the owners will certainly be legally accountable if they scam their users. On an unregulated exchange, they can collect all your money and be gone very much similar to those scam ICOs during 2016 and 2017.
How gullible are you people? Licensed and regulated casinos can scam people too and sites like 1xbit can attest to that. Any site can perform a rugpull at any moment which is why licenses and regulations don't just magically make a site 100% reliable. They are more reliable than unregulated sites for sure, but trusting them completely and blindly submitting KYC is stupidity at its finest. Gullible? Are you telling me that you are more willing to deposit $1000 on an unregulated casino than deposit it on a regulated one? I am not accusing any casino as a scam, however, this is headshaking because if 1xbit is not regulated and you accuse it as a scam, I reckon it can do much more scamming if it is unregulated. It will be very much similar to darknet markets where they create the marketplace then rug their users suddenly and collect millions hehehee. It would certainly be more gullible to trust an unregulated casino, exchange or marketplace. |

It appears that I have not made the proposal very clear. If Dune 2 is not nominated for all of best picture, best director and best adapted screenplay, I lose the bet. Also, if Dune 2 does not win on all of best picture, best director and best adapted screenplay, I also lose the bet. However, if this movie wins on these 3 categories mentioned, I win 20x of the bet. This is a donation for the other bettor if he accepts hehe.
What do you mean precisely when you say " if Dune 2 does not win on all of best picture, best director and best adapted screenplay, I also lose the bet". Do you mean if Dune 2 doesn't win an Oscar in any of those categories, that is to say if the movie doesn't win one Oscar award at least in one of these 3 categories? Usually I don't like betting long time before one event and we are 11 months before but I must confess I find that funny to bet against you on those events. And I am ready to risk $1000 for this fun lol Yes if Dune 2 does not win all of the 3 categories on best picture, best director and best adapted screenplay, I lose the bet. If Dune 2 is also not officially nominated on the same categories for best picture, best director and best adapted screenplay you can collect your money immediately. Let us escrow the bets to someone who is trustworthy next week if you agree. Also, because the amount of $1000 is very big to bet against my small $50, you can buy out from the bet and pay only 50% of the amount escrowed beginning on October. My bet will have no buy out, it will be my donation for you heheheheheee. |

News update. This is only the beginning. If this treasury market on the blockchain will become very successful, we can be quite certain that more markets from traditional markets will be created to use the blockchain. I reckon the next will be the real estate market and commodities. The cryoptspace the the oracles similar to Link to make this become reality. The tokenized U.S. Treasury market is poised to reach $1 billion "very soon" given the growth of BlackRock's BUIDL, an analyst noted.
BlackRock's first tokenized asset fund is off to a strong start, garnering a significant market share of the blockchain-based tokenized U.S. Treasury market just a week following its debut.Source https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2024/03/27/blackrocks-tokenized-fund-quickly-rakes-in-245m-right-behind-franklin-templetons-older-offering/ |

Because crypto now is super popular and highly regulated in some countries Casinos or Exchange that are related to crypto would be asked by the government to do KYC for one or two reasons like anti money laundry services
Casinos now have a license so it will be regulated by a country, for example if you play at a casino that is not licensed, do you want to play there? Of course not! because we want to play at a legal and regulated casino. Now there are rules in the TOS maybe almost all casinos have anti-money laundering in their casinos if this happens and is allowed by the casino then the regulation will sue or stop the service from operating, so one of the prevention of money laundering with AML / KYC. There are few individual choose to select those unregulated casino since their main issue is KYC and they can't trust yet the service of those regulated casino. But for sure once they realize how risky it is to gamble on a casino that has not been regulated since any time the owners could shutdown their service without people knowing for sure they are the one who decide to come with those regulated ones then select the most reputable among them all. Since its really stressful to gamble on something we are not sure and confident that our funds is safe at all times. We can expect that KYC became a normal requirement on each casino since maybe this how they comply on AML policies. It is very headshaking if a person trusts an unregulated casino more than a regulated one where the owners will certainly be legally accountable if they scam their users. On an unregulated exchange, they can collect all your money and be gone very much similar to those scam ICOs during 2016 and 2017. Does anyone remember Prodeum? The ICO with the website that left everyone with the word penis. Hehehe unregulated casinos can certainly do this. An initial coin offering called Prodeum has scammed investors and greeted them with a one-word ‘penis’ salute after the fact.Read in full https://www.ccn.com/prodeum-ico-scams-investors-of-millions-trolls-with-the-word-penis/ |

On the changes of certain rules for the new season, what teams does everyone speculate would become better as a consequence of these changes and for what type of players these teams presently have? Also, will these changes influence the NFL teams on drafts and playbook tactics or will it be considered minor changes?
If these changes are not minor, it appears the more favored NFL players might become smaller, less strong, but faster and more difficult to tackle.

@ChiBitCTy. On what we have witnessed on the development of bitcoin, it appears that the fees can be manipulated to centralize usage for the whales who can pay for fees if they are expensive. It also appears that censorship resistance will only be available if you can pay for them hehehehee. However, we are very lucky that Monero and Litecoin are available to use as a medium of exchange. I reckon bitcoin has become a cryptocoin for store of value and speculative investment.

@zasad@. It will always end with a favorable agreement, however, I predict that it will be a more favorable agreement for Coinbase hehehe. A very much similar occurrence when uncle Gary was in tears when he was forced on signing for the approval of the spot ETF for bitcoin. Blackrock was the biggest ETF pusher before the approval and on Coinbase, Blackrock is one of the shareholders of this exchange. Uncle Gary will be the loser again because of the new mayor of bitcoin.  Larry Fink, new mayor of bitcoin |

There are reports that David Benavidez pleaded Turki Alalshikh to make the fight between him and Canelo. But Turki says no, however, he said that he can fight the winner of this fight in June.  https://twitter.com/MichaelBensonn/status/1771550634942111745Well I can't blame Alalshikh, Canelo is clearly doesn't like no part of Benavidez and that's why he is not a fan of it. And for sure Canelo will command big money here, although the Saudis have that kind of money, I don't think though that they'll simply bow down on Canelo here. So June perhaps, then after that, Bivol and Beterbiev can have their rematch. What are your thoughts on this proposal? This will certainly be a checkmate on Canelo from David Benavidez assuming Benavidez will win the light heavyweight championship hehehe. Benavidez knows that Canelo wants a light heavyweight championship before he retires and he also certainly knows that Canelo is avoiding him in the super middleweight division. The solution is to win the unified light heavyweight championships hehehehee. This will be the perfect fight for the both of them because Canelo wants to fight for his legacy and Benavidez wants to fight to become the next big name in the sport of boxing. Also, the purse for each will be very big hehe. It's already checkmate for him as he is avoiding David Benavidez like a plague. And I don't think that he will go 175 lbs, those 3 are waiting for him. He only went to 175 lbs when it has a weak champion in Kovalev. And he did try to go up again and thought that Bivol is easy. I disagree. It will only be checkmate if Canelo needs to fight David Benavidez for his legacy and win the light heavyweight championships hehehe. However, this is only if Benavidez can win against Bivol or Beterbiev which will ceertainly be very difficult. But the skeptical me thinks Canelo is only waiting for the timing for this fight vs. Benavidez and the amount of the purse will determine if it is good timing or not hehehehehe. The long dance between David Benavidez and Canelo Alvarez never resulted in a fight, and Alvarez has taken plenty of heat for "ducking" the undefeated super middleweight champion. In the latest video from Benavidez, he took less than seven seconds to prove why Canelo may be wise to avoid his lightning fists.Source https://www.marca.com/en/boxing/2024/03/28/6605e043e2704eea518b4570.html |

@Rikafip. It is headshaking that these mainstream news media outlets were declaring lifetime imprisonment for Sam very much similar to the hot chocolate man Bernie hehehe. However, presently this 25 years sentence appears that he might be free within 10 years because of his parents political connections with the government.
In any case, I have not been following the news updates on Caroline and Gary Wang. I reckon if Sam has gotten only 25 years, they will get no prison time for being witnesses?

News update. According to this mainstream news media outlet, the SEC scored a big win. This is headshaking because if the SEC is going to lose in court, we can be quite certain that it will set another precedent and they will never do this regulation through enforcement again. This is not a victory for the SEC, this is certainly more pressure.  The Securities and Exchange Commission scored a major win in its lawsuit against Coinbase
on Wednesday, as a judge ruled that its claim that the cryptocurrency exchange engaged in unregistered sales of securities could be heard by a jury at trial.
Coinbase’s shares fell around 2.5% on news of the ruling in Manhattan federal court rejecting its bid to dismiss the SEC’s complaint.Source https://www.cnbc.com/2024/03/27/sec-scores-big-win-in-lawsuit-against-crypto-exchange-coinbase.html |

BlackRock definitely has something in it's mind. First they get involved in crypto space by applying for bitcoin ETF then they apply for ethereum ETF and now the tokenized fund.
I must say, BlackRock is slowly tightening its grip in the crypto community and soon it will try to manipulate it to it's benefits.
Things will become more centralized and that is not good for the crypto community.
Blackrock, is definitely up to something bigger in the crypto space, they probably want to have main stakes in top cryptocurrencies and they'll have certain autonomy over them, meaning that they can manipulate the decentralization of a coin like Bitcoin, to their advantage. But looking at it from the business angle, Blackrock, is now a pioneer in the adoption of cryptocurrency, more investors have entered the space and areas of making money have increased significantly, hopefully if Ethereum ETF is approved, it'll be another milestone for Blackrock, and investors. I reckon the next speculation should be what cryptocoin is next to be supported by Blackrock and the next to have a spot ETF? I predict this to be Solana and this might make it pump higher than Binance smartchain in market capitalization. If their developers can fix Solana's network congestion and problems of going offline, might it be a possibility that SOL might also pump above Ethereum's market capitalization within 10 years? Now, Solana has again surpassed Ethereum in other terms as it takes the lead in weekly stablecoin transfer volume. The investors chased yields, airdrops, and high returns from the memecoin buzz. The volume soared beyond $360 billion, overtaking the volume of Ethereum of around $150 to $153 billion.
With this, Solana accounts for nearly 42% of the total stablecoin market share, a significant rise from 1.9%, a year ago. This may also have a major impact on the SOL price, which is at the foothills of a major explosion.Source https://coinpedia.org/price-analysis/after-dex-volume-solana-surpasses-ethereum-again-heres-where-the-sol-price-may-go-next/Seems interesting but VCs already have a huge chunk of Solana coins along with them which already makes it more centralized. If Blackrock decides to launch a SOL ETF it will either be an easy way for the VCs to exit since the liquidity will sucked up by Blackrock or the price will drive further upwards since ETF will boost the price thus making Solana more centralized than ever. We can speculate on Solana, VC and decentralization, however, the only data that might make the argument on Blackrock creating a Solana spot ETF is the usage data. I reckon if something is popular enough for the community, it will also become popular for institutional investors. It appears that the people that creates attractors in the cryptospace is the community not the rulers. This is very much an opposite against traditional finance hehehe. |

For the most part yes. Just like with ordinals. I honestly don't understand why bitcoin devs even waisted their time on them. Is/was that really necessary? How about spending time improving the blockchain or working on satoshis proposed escrow that doesn't involve a 3rd party.
Now some NFL teams used NFTs for game tickets. Now that's legit utility. I know there's stuff in the gaming and music world that can utilize them in some fashion that is legit, but I don't really understand how they work.
However, very much similar to the art collecting community and the market behind this, the NFTspace appears to have become developed into something similar where money will be laundered in these markets and this will be liquidity that will be greeted and accepted happily. Also, the development of new NFT standards like erc404 will create new types of usecases where big inflows will go and where new markets will be created. |

Yet another proposal thread being portrayed like it will definitely become a law in the future. Personally, I don't think this particular proposal will be approved though we never know.
Also, it's hilarious seeing naive people think that Trump would magically care about crypto investors. Most government heads will always try their best to suppress the power of crypto.
I predict that if the Donald Trump will win the presidency of America, his administration will certainly treat the cryptospace much better than the Biden administration has treated this. The Donald will want to regulate this, however, it will not be similar to how uncle Gary has done where he is doing regulation through enforcement. The Donald's tactic of regulating the cryptospace will be more diplomatic and fair. We can be quite sure of this. |

@morvillz7z. I will not be worried. This is very much similar to the decreasing viewership and ratings on movies because of the woke agenda. The movie industry is slowly removing themselves from this to increase back viewership and ratings again hehehe. I speculate if the ratings on the NFL go down because of these changes, we can be quite certain that they will also return to the old roughness of the game.

@hugeblack. This might be because Kucoin has much more users who are located in India than OKX and losing these users by leaving the jurisdiction might have a very big negative impact on Kucoin's revenue.
This might also imply, Kucoin wants to expand in India where other exchanges are speculated to leave. This certainly is a good business decision, I reckon.

This will be the perfect fight for the both of them because Canelo wants to fight for his legacy and Benavidez wants to fight to become the next big name in the sport of boxing. Also, the purse for each will be very big hehe. And if that is the case then Canelo might stay at the super middleweight division and not chase the light weight as the big 3 might give him another losses specially Benavidez who is really hot on his tail. There is one interview of Benavidez and says that if Canelo thinks he is a nobody, then why he doesn't want to fight me? or something like that. And then on the money that Canelo is asking, Benavidez says why Canelo is demanding that $150-$200 million? so that he could buy a new set of balls"? Lol. But he has a point though, is Canelo afraid of losing again that why when he see someone that can potentially beat him, will ask for a huge sum of mone? However, it appears that Canelo's real reason why he does not want to fight David Benavidez is the money might not be enough compared to the risk that he might lose all of his championships to Benavidez. If this is true, I reckon Benavidez's challenge against the champions of light heavyweight might be his strategy to be known as a big name in boxing that can offer Canelo money and more to his legacy if Canelo is victorious. If we are being honest with ourselves, David Benavidez is not a very known name in boxing. Ask anyone who is David Benavidez, no one will know. However, ask them who is Canelo, I am quite certain there will be some people who will say they know the name. |

@Hirose UK. Was it not mentioned before that King Ry suffered from depression? Might this behavior really be a symptom of manic depression? However, if the story about the Bohemian Grove and being forced to watch sex between underaged women are real, I will not be shocked. It was only yesterday when the rapper P Diddy was raided in his own home because he is a suspected sex trafficer of underaged girls.  U.S. Department of Homeland Security agents have opened an investigation of hip-hop star Sean "Diddy" Combs, searching his properties in Los Angeles and the Miami area, agency officials said on Monday.
The inquiry was led by Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) agents in New York, where a lawsuit was filed against Combs by a former girlfriend in federal court in November accusing him of engaging in sex trafficking.Source https://www.reuters.com/world/us/sean-diddy-combs-properties-la-miami-raided-by-federal-agents-2024-03-25/ |

Would it be a possibility to create a market for the movie Dune 2 and if it can win awards in next year's Oscar awards? How much odds to win for Dune 2 if the bet is it will win all of best picture, best director and best adapted screenplay if this is offered this early? Will the odds for this reach 20.00 or more than this? I want to bet this and I am quite certain there are many fans of the movie who wants to bet this also heheheh. |

@zasad@. I am not quite certain what you are implying when you mentioned the social rating system because those wallets in the blockchain are anonymous. However, I agree that there are these wallets that were involved in receiving stolen coins but what I am arguing about are the identities of the wallets. Lazarus Group's wallet is only an allegation that it belongs to North Korean hackers. We cannot be sure that there are North Korean hackers because we do not know or cannot prove that they have good programmers and computer scientists in their country. They might not also have internet hehehehe.
