@spadormie. Agreed. However Reddit is a good source of ideas and speculations if you are betting on the tv show hehehe. The Youtube channels Talking Thrones and Alt Shift X are also rich sources of information.

Game of Thrones will start in 30 minutes.

@HairyMaclairy. Those orders might be market makers just market making hehehe. Are those the buys? Can you post the large orders on the sells of the order book? I reckon the same person has also 2 somewhere.

@Hueristic. Agreed!

@buwaytress. I want the suspense hehehe. I also have some bets on Cloudbet's head to head who will die first which makes watching the first screening more exciting.

Does anyone have any predictions for episode 2? I reckon Jaime will be forgiven by Bran and Jon. Sansa and Arya will have their own apprehensions. However, they will not do anything for now hehe.

Daenarys might also begin losing more of her questionable influence as queen in the alliance.
6904  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin could still crash below $3000 - Vinny Lingham on: April 20, 2019, 03:23:03 AM
We have another candidate to include in our list of funniest trading experts in the cryptospace hehehe. This makes me shake my head and ask myself what their real agenda is. If bitcoin is bullish, this type of person is bearish, if bitcoin is beginning to be bullish, the same person is bearish.

Tom Lee will not be delighted.



However, one analyst, Murad Mahmudov of Adaptive Capital, is predicting that over the coming week or two, the cryptocurrency markets will finally begin to show signs of action after some further stagnation. In a recent Trading View post, the prominent analyst, who skyrocketed to fame partially as a result of his appearance on Anthony Pompliano’s “Off The Chain” podcast, explained a potential scenario he sees for BTC.

Mahmudov depicted the fact that over the past three weeks, Bitcoin has tested $5,350 and failed seven times. He adds that with one or two more tests of that local resistance level, which will come over the next two weeks, the asset is likely to break out. And once $5,350 is convincingly broken, Mahmudov explained that BTC could easily rally to $5,750, as there is a clear lack of liquidity in between $5,400 and $5,700. $5,750 is important, in that this is where Bitcoin traded at for months on end in the middle of 2018.

While some are convinced that BTC will break through the long-standing level of importance, Mahmudov expressed that he expects for the crypto asset to fail to surmount that level, falling instead of breaking through. He depicted that if BTC fails to break $5,750, it could easily collapse through $5,000 to $4,800, and set this market under an array of key short-term support levels.

This lines up with his previous theories that cryptocurrencies aren’t out of a bear market just yet. As reported by Ethereum World News previously, he has drawn attention to the $1,700 region as the potential point at where Bitcoin will finally bottom.

What's with all this dick swinging when it comes to this? If it were me I'd let it fall apart but I have a sizeable lack of sentimentality problem. I don't get why a string of billionaires are laying out for this when they could be solving some real problems.

Attention for their own companies and brands. Similar to some of my scorn on the bitcoin news media, this also applies to all this dick swinging. None of them are authentic. They have their own agendas.

@gentlemand. The title of the article is clickbait, I reckon. It might not be a hype article for bitcoin, however, it is a kind of promotion for Bitpay which might be their way to adverise their company from their expectations for the coming bitcoin craze phase.
6907  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2019-04-13] What Russia’s ‘Digital Iron Curtain’ Means for Bitcoin Users on: April 19, 2019, 11:40:24 PM
@veleten. China holds $1.17 trillion in US treasury bonds, while Russia does not hold anything and might also have given up their position as a nuclear super power.

I don't see how would this justify treating any information coming from Russia in a certain biased way
this is not journalism but propaganda
Russia used to have at least 0.11 trillion in US treasury bonds
they sold over 80% in 2018 , not surprisingly
but I wonder how they are going to give up their position as a nuclear superpower if they hold the top 2 nuclear arsenal in the world
and if we compare the quality of their ICBM to the US ones , they are way newer and better

It does not change the reason why China can get away from doing some things and remain America's biggest trading partner, similar to what veleten said. The reason is clearly because China owns America hehehe.

@LeGaulois. Agreed! Money laundering. They also want that right and ability only for themselves, not for everyone.

Can't wait when all this FUD about Grin, turns into FOMO. Grin

There is no fud on grin, however, only basic economics. Its monetary policy is to overwhelm the market of its supply and create it to be a medium of exchange in the beginning before it becomes a store of value.
6909  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2019-04-18] Corporate Traveller Now Accepts Bitcoin Payments on: April 19, 2019, 04:38:09 AM
I reckon the bitcoin news media should stop these misleading types of news articles about bitcoin's acceptance. The payments are processed by Bitpay and converted to fiat.

Corporate Traveller is not accepting bitcoin. It is using Bitpay's services to accept fiat.

the amount of BTC that merchants convert to fiat is chosen by the merchant which use these payments companies

are you claiming to know the details of every BTC transaction this merchant will ever make, in the remaining entirety of space-time?

No. I am claiming that the way the article is written is to hype bitcoin similar to what most of the bitcoin news media have been doing from bitcoin to altcoins to ICOs.
6910  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2019-04-13] What Russia’s ‘Digital Iron Curtain’ Means for Bitcoin Users on: April 19, 2019, 04:18:31 AM
if the article tells the truth I do not know, but the political system of russia is a very shady political system and it does not seem to me that russia intends to see bitcoin being adopted en masse in its country, it seems to me that what the Russian government want is greatly reduce the number of people using bitcoin so that the Russian government has more control over the small number of people who use bitcoin in their country. This is something expected of governments that have a shadowy political system, for this kind of government to remain in power is because they control and manipulate their people.

However, can the Russian government enforce any ban or enforce any strict regulations created on bitcoin? What would stop me if I use a VPN, Tor, proxies and bitcoin?
6911  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin could still crash below $3000 - Vinny Lingham on: April 18, 2019, 03:04:24 AM
If is that is what you waiting for to enable you buy Bitcoin at the cheaper rate then you may end up waiting in vain.

It might be time for him to sing I do not want to wait in vain for $3000 while he waits for it in vain to be dumped on $3000 hehehe.
6912  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Privacy Coins Survey 2019 on: April 18, 2019, 02:42:29 AM
I want to fill out the form but it's very long,
so I will give my opinion about privacy coins in my opinion,
coin provocation that I like only XVG, because it is still cheap and can potentially be expensive, especially if it has been burned,
it's just that after the incident in collaboration with pornhub the fame of XVG began to fall,
but I'm sure when the XVG back btc bull in 2019 will have a new ATH.

Verge is not a secure cryptocoin, however. It was 51% attacked 3 times. Why would you recommend everyone to buy it?

@elindinga. Does your survey collect ip addresses?
6913  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Game of Thrones - Who will rule? Odds and betting discussion [Odds updated!] on: April 18, 2019, 01:57:26 AM
@Cloudbet. My favorite is will Hodor appear as a white walker as a wight, in which my answer is yes hehehe.

https://www.cloudbet.com/en/sports/entertainment/will-hodor-appear-as-white-walker-or-wight-in-s8/o1584724

I also like will Jaime kill Cersei?. My bet is no.

https://www.cloudbet.com/en/sports/entertainment/will-jamie-lannister-kill-cersei-lannister-in-s8/o1582333

There is also will Sandor kill Clegane?. That is another no bet for me. Clegane will kill Sandor, I reckon.

Corporate Traveller is not accepting bitcoin. It is using Bitpay's services to accept fiat.



Corporate Traveller, a subsidiary of the Flight Centre Group, has just announced that it will be accepting Bitcoin (BTC) and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) due to increased demand from its clients.

Corporate Traveller is the UK’s largest business travel service and will be processing the cryptocurrency payments through BitPay. The payments will be converted to Pound sterling (GBP) and settled within two business days.

The company has said it sees the potential in blockchain technology and wants to be the first in their sector to integrate cryptocurrencies as payment.

The hype on China based Bo Shen's investments on EOS and Bitshares never stops. Another platform based in China is also Tron. It is no.2 in the China Center for Information and Industry Development's list of top cryptocoins when it replaced the former no.2 Ethereum, also a Bo Shen coin hehehe.

6917  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2019 NBA Season on: April 17, 2019, 03:08:57 AM
Casual basketball fan hehehe. How strong is the Raptors during the playoffs? They were leading by 16 points versus Orlando in game 1 and managed to lose the game in spite of the lead.

Lol! Raptors hasnt changed a bit. No wonder why they were called the "Barneys" in the post season.

What is a barney? That is the first time I heard someone describe a sportsteam as a cuddly, purple dinosaur that little children see on tv hehehe.

In any case, the Toronto Barneys won game 2.

@elda34b. Similar to America's SEC, it might be easy from them to create the laws but it might be hard to enforce them as regulations hehehe.

However, I also reckon that all the created government restrictions might also be good for the cryptospace as a challenge to find other methods of avoiding them hehehe.
6919  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2019-04-13] The SEC will turn the cryptospace into the the elite's playground on: April 17, 2019, 02:23:17 AM
This is the beginning of another government agenda to turn the cryptospace into something where only the elite can play. I would rather have the ICO scammers run around in a democratized playground where everyne can participate than the biggest scammers from business and government controlling everything.



According to proposed regulations, the government wants to restrict Russian traders to local crypto exchanges and also only allow “qualified” investors – e.g., those with a degree in economics and a certificate from the government – to trade Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency.

What are the methods available to outmanoeuvre this? I reckon there is Tor, VPNs and proxies to make their jobs of regulating traffic very difficult.

Also, the Russian government might censor some centralized bitcoin websites, however, can it censor a random node from connecting to other random nodes?
