7041  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Nigeria Becomes Fastest Growing Crypto Market In The World on: August 08, 2020, 10:31:08 PM
I think by now everyone understand that usually in a country or in this case a continent, that if there is a breakdown of economy, usually people run to other crypto to hedge their funds. And this could be one reason why Africa is becoming the fastest growing crypto market in the world.

And this is actually not new, the Zimbabwe crisis on 2017, and other economic and political turmoil that is happening up to this day. And what's more interesting is that Nigeria doesn't have bitcoin regulation, and there have been reports that it is planning to ban it, but so far we haven't heard any update.

BTC Can truly show the economy
i think when btc is down we know economy is down when economy is up the btc is up.
oil and gold are the same if the gold is still high in this economic bad situation we can expecting gold to hit even higher
if the btc not going up anytime soon in few months we are in real trouble...then the whole economy will collapse.

I would say that there are correlations, but it's not that accurate though.

so guys lets watch the btc price and we will know everything:)
sometimes the whales manipulating with quick pumps...but we can still the real price of btc

2017 was a good example, bitcoin reaches its all time high, but world economy didn't collapse. I think it's more of a shift of investments. Whales? they have been here in the market for so long, and as the market grows their influence dwindles.
7043  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Errol Spence Jr. vs. Danny Garcia IBF & WBC Welterweight Title on: August 08, 2020, 09:22:24 PM
I can see that the odds is quite in favor to Danny Garcia especially that Errol Spence suffered an accident last October but in my opinion this bout is still very close as anything can happen in boxing and one lucky punch can end the game anytime.
Errol Spence record is a perfect one with 26 wins, 21KO's without a single loss so in my case I still have a difficulty on whom to side as I know also the talent of Danny Garcia in boxing even if he has 2 loses in his career.

Danny Garcia was beat by Shawn Porter, and Errol Spence beat Porter.

Yes, But I don't put too much weight on triangle theory.

But the accident almost certainly means that Spence is worse than he was when he beat Porter, plus the long layover is a big deal.

It's definitely going to be a tough fight, I'd say it's a true 50/50. Therefore if the odds are favoring Garcia, it's a good bet.

It could be 50/50, ad Garcia is also a very good fighter, the only problem I see is that most of the times Garcia faded in the later stage of the fight and maybe that's where Spence can take advantage of.
7044  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Those initial exchange offering (IEO) reduce opportunities for bounty hunters? on: August 07, 2020, 11:12:37 PM
Will the current hype & acceptance of the initial exchange offering (IEO) over the erstwhile initial coin offering (ICO) affect the opportunities for bounty  hunters?

Can a project on initial exchange offering (IEO) still fail or exploit people?

It is just the same, opportunities for bounty hunters will be there, it's just depend on the markets sentiments. If we are in a bullish phase, then definitely, there is a possibility that those coins are going to be worth something in the end. Or there's one angle that the projects will turn out to be a scam and not pay the bounty hunters. Nothing has change a bit, ICO->IEO, same people are behind.
7045  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Lomachenko vs. Teofimo Lopez Lightweight Unification fight on: August 07, 2020, 09:39:11 PM
So Lopez is looking to renegotiate the split after seemingly already coming to terms a few weeks ago?

Looks like another boxer who either wants;

1. To price himself out so he can save face—since he actually doesn't want to fight Loma.
2. To make sure he gets a massive payday, because he knows his career would be in shambles when he gets KO'd by Loma.
[]
I think they are looking for Verdejo next if the fight with Lopez fizzled out.

Vasiliy Lomachenko vs Felix Verdejo possible for Oct. 3 if Teofimo Lopez falls through. We don't know what's getting inside Lopez's mind to try to have the split favoring him. We are still in the pandemic, not much money to generate, and he is lucky that he is still getting more than a mil in this situation. I agree that he is the B side here and he shouldn't be that big headed hard to negotiate fighter.

Felix Verdejo had a lot of hype around him back then, very quick hands, but since his lost to an unknown Antonio Lozada Torres two years ago, Verdejo's stock goes down. Still a good match in paper, and it will be a cherry pick fight for Loma if the Lopez fight didn't materialised. And another all-in-house money for Top Rank.

The big economy Boom and Prosperity Coming.
There will be a lot new Capital in world.
Right now in australia There is crisis... But soon it will be over coz australia will Give out huge loans like USA and uk did.
We will see all Around the World that Kind of economy booming that we never seen Before!!

I don't see it coming, everyone is suffering because of this pandemic, and I doubt that this so called stimulus package will be the catalyst for an economic boom, on the contrary as others have said, it will just make it worse.

If you Don't get Rich now you will stay poor all your life!! 
And cryptocurrency boggest bull run will go Wild

Right, but how can you get rich from the money coming from the government? There are no money for everyone, and it will just make the case for for the separation between the rich and the poor. And in this pandemic, it's either you become super rich by taking advantage of the situation or if your business leans toward those things that are necessary for survival or you become "special poor".
7048  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do scams harm Bitcoin's reputation in the mainstream world? on: August 07, 2020, 08:12:26 PM
What will it take for people to distance scams from Bitcoin itself? Thoughts? Huh

Even prior to the twitter hack, bitcoin has been called with so many names, like scams, ponzi schemes, being used by criminals (drug lords, terrorists) etc. And yet it still survived, get to a new all time high in 2017, suffers a long bearish trend, bounce back. In short it is very resilient and it's already proven that no matter what negativity they thrown, it doesn't have long term impact. So regardless if we have a twitter hack in the name of bitcoin, I don't see it's reputation being harm in the mainstream much worst than the media attacks back on 2016-2017.

7050  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Gervonta Davis vs Leo Santa Cruz on: August 06, 2020, 08:27:21 PM
Just a short update on this fight:

Quote
“This is the biggest fight of my career. It is the fight I always wanted and my first pay per view that I headline. So, I am really, excited,” Leo Santa Cruz told Fightnews.com®. “I am motivated and training hard for this fight. No one gives me a shot, but I am going to shock the world.”

“I was active during quarantine. I stopped for about a month because my dad got the virus. He wasn’t doing well but he’s good now,” Santa Cruz stated. “I’m back in camp now the preparation is going well we started last week as we start to train more, and we will be stepping it up. I will do everything that way I come well prepared for the fight,”

https://fightnews.com/leo-santa-cruz-begins-preparation-for-tank-davis/79851

So he is really motivated and focused on this fight against Davis. I'm not saying that no one is giving him a shot, but his chances are very slim. For sure Davis wanted to bounce back from his poor performance against an old Gamboa. So it's a battle of grit, but I'm still backing Davis to win this fight.

Di ako masyadong nakapag-research ng XRP wallet dahil sa pagmamadali (buhay gambler) Smiley kaya doon nalang ako sa playstore pumunta. Salamat sa suggestion, susubukan ko yang Coinomi na yan.


Heto lang siguro yan, medyo hindi ka lang nakapag research dahil hindi naman talaga komplikado ang pag wiwithdraw at mabilis talaga naman base sa experience ko sa pang gamit ng XRP. Buti na lang na sort out din dahil talagang sayang yang panalo mo. Ayos naman din yang suggestion tungkol sa Coinomi wallet. Ngayon medyo lumuwag na ang network ng ETH kaya pwede mo ng maging option yan.

2nd time in a row, when will they learn to secure their network? I agree with @bitmover, they should go to PoS, otherwise they will again be targeted by these hackers. This is not the first time they've been hack, but twice in a week? really doesn't look good. Early 2019 there was also a similar attack if I'm not mistaken, executing a double spend on their network. I do hope it will not case any waves of panic right now as we are in this sort of bull-run.
7053  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Ledger App Isolation Bypass Vulnerabilities on: August 06, 2020, 07:04:23 PM
do not connect to just any 3rd party application and try to keep your ledger with BTC seperate from shitcoins.

I was thinking about how this vulnerability could be exploited, and that's  exactly the case

If you connect your ledge in a third party malicous software, they could steal your btc.
That's kind of serious vulnerability, sadly ledger didn't handle it well..

This one, we really don't know if they ignore monokh or just totally forgot about it. And know if is out in the crypto social media and it seems too late again reacting. Making them look very bad again.

@TeofimoLopez
The fight is going to happen. Stuff like this sometimes takes a little longer to happen and that’s why it’s called “negotiating” for a reason. Dumb asses!

https://twitter.com/TeofimoLopez/status/1291089928693088256

LOL, his probably trying to be a 'hard to get' attitude, but sooner or later he will succumb to the pressures and I doubt that he can even get a 60-40 split here.

Lopez doesn't have the bargaining power in the table, he and his team should understand that. For sure, when they announce the fight, they have at least some verbal agreement already and that only their signatures are needed before they officially announce it. So I don't believed that there are negotiations happening. He is just delaying it and will not get the money that he wanted in my opinion.
7055  Local / Altcoins (Pilipinas) / Re: Ripple (XRP) Wallet Discussion on: August 06, 2020, 01:50:11 AM
Mas mainam siguro na course of action mo ngayon ay mag open ng support ticket na kung saan sport bookies yan. Dahil tama ka dapat instant yan dahil mabilis ang withdrawal time ng XRP eh.

Edit: Dun muna sa source (bookies) para ma isolate natin ang problema, then sa receiving (XRP wallet). Sana nga lang yung official wallet ang na-download mo sa playstore.

7057  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC has hit ATH against Turkish Lira on: August 05, 2020, 11:59:29 PM
Bitcoin hit all time high against Brazilian Real BRL as well , a few months ago.

But this is more due to fiat devaluation than to bitcoin valuation,  as bitcoin would still need about 70-80 % more to reach it's all time high against dolar.

Bitcoin was a very good hedge in this pandemic crisis for developing countries,  which fiats suffered a lot.

Yes, as national fiat currency collapses, more wise investors are going to shift to bitcoin to hedge their wealth. I think a good test case is Venezuela it's been years now since bitcoin has been hitting ATH there and it seems that Turkey are going on the same way today. Doesn't sound good in the country though, and I do hope that they can bounce back and not go deep like Venezuela.

https://twitter.com/PBConFOX/status/1208578180770086912

He also answers your concern as why he picked Danny Garcia for his comeback.

Remember that this interview is prior to the pandemic.

Obviously, as we have suspected when XRP was released that it was really a bankers coin, and now look at how those group of finance leaders are shilling for it. LMAO, so no surprised here, that's how XRP as build anyways, how it is design and we all knew this from the very beginning. But looking back, it's all good for crypto, in a hindsight many financial systems did look for blockchain technology to help them, so I would say it has some impact to the technology itself, but not in crypto market in general.
