I'm also excited to see how Ben Askren would fare here. He had a good debut against a very tough opponent and a former champion.
Agreed. Jorge also dislikes Ben Askren because of Ben's trolling during interviews hehe. Another fun fact for this fight is Robbie Lawler and Jorge are teammates in American Top Team in Florida. @Ronnie. Also agreed on Jan Blachowicz versus Luke Rockhold. @eaLiTy. Conor will not return to the octagon without his shares in the UFC as part of payment. |

@darklus123. All the sportsbooks follow the same course, similar to all the cryptocoin exchanges follow each other.
In any case, Manny Pacquiao is 1.75 on Cloudbet. Sportsbet might have been slow in adjusting their odds. I reckon take the opportunity and bet there immediately hehehe.

It was only 8 months ago that the mainstream news media and bitcoin news media were in excitement in creating articles of the bitcoin death spiral. Look at what these corrupt and incompetent fools are making us read now.

This might be a clickbait article, the offenders mentioned does not appear to be a cartel hehe. However, it reveals that it is not hard to use cryptocoins for money laundering, which strengthens my argument that there is a highly advanced global money laundering ring utilizing the cryptospace.  Authorities in Florida have busted an elaborate operation which saw prison inmates use Bitcoin BTC to launder thousands of dollars via their commissary accounts.
An investigation by Pasco County Sherriff’s Deputies revealed how inmates at the county jail were having money deposited into their commissary accounts using stolen credit cards.
“These identities that were compromised by an unknown mean [sic], were purchased via the dark web through Bitcoin,” said Detective Anthony Cardillo.Read in full https://thenextweb.com/hardfork/2019/07/04/this-bitcoin-money-laundering-cartel-was-operating-from-inside-a-florida-prison/ |

News update. Bitfinex has begun paying their loan to Tether. I reckon what the New York attorney general's office should do is more gross overreach and find the money processor and its bank partners that held Bitfinex users' funds hehehe. Bitfinex is pleased to announce that on July 1, 2019, it repaid $100,000,000 of the outstanding loan facility to Tether. Bitfinex made this payment in fiat wired to Tether’s bank account. This amount was not yet due to be paid to Tether under the facility, but Bitfinex has made the prepayment based upon its financial position at the end of the second quarter of 2019.
Also on July 1st, Bitfinex fully prepaid all interest accrued under the loan facility to Tether up to the end of day on June 30, 2019, also in fiat.Source https://www.bitfinex.com/posts/394 |

Wow, what a race of Verstappen yesterday in the F1! Brilliant but risky move, but it turned out OK.
And he is just 21 years old, the future of F1 is in his hands (together with Leclerc)
Hopefully, he didn't get any penalty for the overcome over Leclerc. It would be unfair if something like that would happen, but still Ferrari fans write posts about FIA. They were blaming Hamilton and they stated that FIA was supporting Mercedes, but what would they say now? That FIA is supporting Red bull? They just have to deal with the bad strategy that Ferrari follows in all races. The FIA should let drivers be drivers and should not excessively interfere in all the incidents in the race and sometimes out of the race. This sport is so boring and has become a playground for politics because of them. In any case, the FIA made the right decision. |

It’s a well known fact in the crypto market that altcoins typically have their bull market moment after bitcoin has finished its course.
actually the "fact" has always been that altcoins get pumped when bitcoin is stable. simply because traders can't make the same amount of profit from a stable market so they invest their time temporarily in altcoins to pump them. otherwise when bitcoin bull market ends it always ends with a bubble (like $20k) and that is followed by a bubble burst which then causes altcoin dumps. However, if you check some of the top 100 altcoin's prices in fiat, they are also bullish. But only not as volatile as bitcoin, however. Tom Lee might only be speculating that this might change soon because altcoins have normally been more volatile during bull or bear markets. |

So, the entire big scary dark web will attract $1B dollars... so that's a whole HALF percent of the total illegal drug trade in 2019 so far ( https://www.worldometers.info/drugs/)? How pathetic that drugs, porn and weapons, and assassins and hackers... can't even get their act together to get a fraction of the industry reliant on cash and banks to keep the wheels pumping. Shame on you, Bitcoin. You had 11 years and this is how you help the dark web criminals? This whole half of a percent will only grow more as more people adopt the cryptospace for their needs. Maybe we might also see unstoppable smart contracts in the darknet within 10 years. Blame Vitalik hehehe. |

@Ronnie. The Game of Thrones' hard sell on Cloudbet might be because of the high minimum stake. I reckon it might have been better if it had been lowered to make it more affordable for everyone.

Coinbase CEO Bryan Armstrong tweeted a video with a grin sticker in it, leading to lots of speculation about a possible future listing.
To me it just looks like someone has great taste in laptop stickers, that’s all. ツ https://grinnews.substack.com/p/55-grin-20-He is invested in Electric Coin Company that gets 20% of all Zcash created. So I highly doubt he will want to list anything to Coinbase that eats his lunch. Other hand, that tax ends next year, but they already talk about new coin, so that way they might just prolong it.  However, it would be contradictory if Brian Armstrong does not list something that is evidently a future top 10 cryptocoin. The people who want Grin, that would have traded it in Coinbase, can easily go to another exchange. |

That proves strict regulation on cryptocurrency only could annoy regular user & stop lesser criminal, while other criminal are smart to use cryptocurrency without use exchange/services which could de-anonymize/freeze their funds. I'm more interested to see privacy-focused cryptocurrency usage on darknet, if chainalysis could do it  Agreed. Also, the article mentioned that the 2nd popular cryptocoin used in the darknet is Monero. I assume they said that based on acceptance in the darknet, not from blockchain analysis hehehe. They are misinterpreting the data in that chart. There was a spike in spending in 2017, because the Bitcoin and other Crypto currency price was at a ATH. <People spend more Crypto currencies, when the price is high> So as the price declined, people spend less Crypto currencies on the DarkNet. Also remember that Bitcoin is not exactly ideal for DarkNet activities, because it is not as anonymous as other Crypto currencies like Monero and Dash for instance. How much money is spend on the DarkNet with stolen credit cards? I guess that would never be revealed, because the Banks and governments would hide those facts... right.  Aside from the misinterpretation of the year 2017 chart, bitcoin was not the only coin used as payment on darknet I think the purpose was to target bitcoin through the creation of FUD for only the newbie of the darknet web site will still continue to use bitcoin as their payment despite all the claim which was said about tumbler site this and for bitcoin not been totally anonymous. I reckon there is no fud in the article. However, the skeptical me says that there is some promotion paid for by Chainalysis hehehe. |

Too keep it alive, my prediction is $25,000 on behalf of our good friend Tom Lee's prediction for December, 2018. He predicts, I collect hehehe.

There is nothing stopping the darknet's growth. Also, with the G20 meeting together to add stricter regulations to control the cryptospace, the users might be forced to push their trades away from licensed exchanges and bitcoin, to the darknet and anonymous coins. A deja vu moment for the government hehehe.  Bitcoin’s use in illegal online marketplaces peddling everything from drugs to child porn is on pace to set a record this year at more than $1 billion, according to a report by Chainalysis.
While the growth in illicit Bitcoin spending may be alarming, a major caveat is that the proportion of Bitcoin transactions tied to illicit deals is declining. Illegal activity has accounted for less than 1% of all Bitcoin activity so far this year -- down from 7% in 2012, according to Hannah Curtis, senior product manager of data at Chainalysis.Read in full https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-07-01/bitcoin-criminals-set-to-spend-1-billion-on-dark-web-this-year |

There are some very rare exceptions, however. In any case, this is another CNBC shilling of another cryptocoin exchange with complete instructions. Coinbase! They might be targetting Americans this time hehehe. It's easy to buy bitcoin if you want to see what owning it is like. And if the price sounds too steep, you don't need to buy an entire bitcoin just to participate in the market. You can purchase just a small fraction of one bitcoin.
This is not an endorsement to own bitcoin, and you should talk to a financial adviser if you want to make a big investment, but if you decide to participate in conversations about it or just want to understand a little more about how buying bitcoin works, check out the guide below.
Coinbase is one of the most popular options for buying bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, so we'll start there.Read in full https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2019/06/27/how-to-buy-bitcoin.html |

@bomj. I cannot answer that because I do not know if that is sarcasm, when you mentioned that The Telegraph as a serious and respected resource hehehe.

It was best race this season and one of the best races in few recent years. Verstappen had awful start, but then he performed amazing. But yeah, that accident with Leclerc left bad taste in the mouth and it's still under investigation. I'm not sure that he should be punished, it's very questionable moment. But I think that he didn't had to risk so much. He was faster than Leclerc and he probable would overtake him safely on next DRS zone. Leclerc again was very close from winning his first F1 race...
Vettel today had good race. But it's worth to say that he lost too much time during one pit stop.
EDIT F1 just announced that no further action on lap 69 incident, so Verstappen remains 1st
Agreed! After Sebastian retires after this season, Charles Leclerc will be Ferrari's driver no.1. This will be the beginning of a new rivalry between 2 young drivers for 2020. Ross Brawn's new storyboard is presenting itself hehehe. |

500 dollars for Ethereum this year is not a dream. It can become a reality before autumn comes. July-August can become the growth months for ETH. There are many friends of mine who are investing in this alt now.
Some of my friend still investing ethereum for other reason, they waiting for eth 2.0. and that fact will be same this situation for growing up eth price on the market, i am agree about $500 become next month. However, if Vitalik and his team fails to deliver and release ETH 2.0 on the given date, would that imply that today's ethereum price does not give grounds on its real value per coin? The proposal itself to reboot the project is an admittance that they have failed in the present implementation. |

The title doesn't sound correct, it is estimated that there's around 35 million users of exchanges, and most investors have more than 0.01 BTC are whatever is the limit, and not all exchanges have such high minimal withdrawal thresholds, so the number of affected investors should be much lower, maybe a few hundreds of thousands in worst case. And of course "can't sell" is also not correct, people always can make direct trades, or use currency converter services instead of the markets.
That is clickbait with some fud mixed in the article to scare the common people at the bottom, the people who need bitcoin the most, from buying and using it. |

Agreed. However, who was the newbie? The viewers who had coins in Bitsane because they listened to CNBC or CNBC who recommended Bitsane hehehe?
I reckon CNBC would never promote Bitsane if the people behind their cryptospace news shows were competent.
Incredibly stupid for any long established entity to be recommending anywhere in such a fucked up space. If they want to hype they can still do it without naming names. If money did change hands, and I can't imagine any other reason why they'd nominate such a nothing fuckhole, then someone should be ending the day with a smacked botty. However, it cannot be done without naming names hehehe. I suspect that there are some corrupt people behind them that accept payments to shill. No one should trust mainstream news media. |

@Naida_BR. That would be boring, I reckon. It would be more exciting to see the opening laps between Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc hehehe.
