And Velasquez prolly still has the cardio to last the whole 5 rounds.  Ngannou really doesn't.
~

Those are my thoughts too. Velasquez can definitely do better in the long run. But I think we have to keep in mind that Ngannou has the hardest punch ever recorded

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U6dblwcTi3Q

And those are not just some units. We can see from watching his fights that he's able to knock out his opponent with a single punch.

My prediction is, if Velasquez will manage to evade Ngannou's punches during the first couple of rounds, he'll win the fight.

Agreed. However, it might be better to assume that Francis Ngannou can or will also connect his punches in the 1st and 2nd rounds. The problem would now be how strong is Cain's chin?

Also, we do not know what kind of Cain is going inside the octagon. It might be the weak and rusty model hehehe.

It appears that Dana might have a new opportunity to create an exciting storyboard in the middleweight division. Chris Weidman has been tweeting that he was not impressed in Israel Adesanya's performance. He also said that he is overrated.

In any case, some UFC sportswriters have already made comparisons on Adesanya as a young Anderson. I reckon if Dana can organize a Chris vs Adesanya fight,  he should promote it as the revenge of Anderson hehehehe.

A good thing by the OP to notify other members about this. I myself won't support storing private keys for bitcoin wallets to be stored in any sort of online cloud service because if during an event of a cloud service getting hacked it would risk all the private keys and the bitcoins as well. According to me, notepads on personal phones and Macs are a way better way to store away private keys.

Are you trolling hehehe? It might only be a better way to store your private keys and seed words if your phone and Mac is offline all of the time and will never be connected to the internet.

Also, there are many guides in the internet on how to safely store them. The people might be lazy to do it, however.

What Floyd claims might also not be true. These are acts he plays to create a situation where he has the upperhand during negotiations for the fight versus Manny Pacquiao.

Floyd might be a good actor in his past life hehehe.
7145  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: [2019-02-06] Locked bitcoins in QuadrigaCX might be another exit scam. on: February 14, 2019, 03:42:15 AM
A legit company will not authorize only one person to hold vital info and passwords.
He was the sole owner of the company, and everyone else who worked for it was his employer. As it is a private company 100% under his control, he can do whatever he wants with it. If he wants to hold all the logins, passwords, funds, private keys, and whatever else himself with no back ups, then he can. Is it stupid? Absolutely, but that doesn't stop him from doing it. I wouldn't be surprised if there are other exchanges out there with similarly stupid set ups for holding their users' funds.




That might be what the people behind the exit scam want. That we think they are stupid for having such a set up. It would be more stupid to accept it and let them get away with it without an investigation, I reckon.

A big no was the first word that entered my mind after reading the first sentence of this article.

It will certainly be a public service for the community to tell everyone not to back up their private keys to any cloud storage platform service. I do not care how safe and secure they are.



Coinbase Wallet users will soon be able to back up their private keys on personal cloud storage platforms Google Drive and Apple’s iCloud. NO.

What Asic friendly algorithm would you suggest, if the community decided that it wanted to embrace Asics?

I reckon it might be critical for Aeon's growth to be a more secure cryptocoin via hashrate. At least we can promote it as a more secure option than some of the top 50 cryptocoins hehehe.

In any case, have we always been under Tom Lee's games? Was he selling when he was hyping his $25k prediction last year to fool everyone to buy while he was selling? Is he fooling everyone to buy along side of him today?

it's definitely possible. hell, if i were him i'd be tempted to do the same! it's perfectly legal to publicly hype your crypto investments, and i don't think someone like him is required to disclose anything at all. cryptocurrency isn't even subject to insider trading laws or anything like that---it comes with the mantra "caveat emptor"!

He might also be doing his $25k hype again to try to cause a dump so he can buy on $2k. Tom Lee might be beginning to use his bad image to reward himself and his fund hehehe. What a smart boy.

@smooth. What is your personal position on the issue of new round of Asics finding its way in Aeon again? Embrace them or follow Monero's hardfork to kill them?

@bitcoin31. I do not know where you get your information from if you are under the impression that Ethereum has more potential hehe. I am not saying that EOS has more potential, however Ethereum has been very short of its promises.

Also, check the data on how many users use dapps in Ethereum. It is not that many.

7151  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Grin Observer - GRN/BTC - Price Movement and Discussion on: February 13, 2019, 02:01:28 AM
@Cryprotourist. Agreed on the mini bull runs. However, Grin might always come down to near its bottom for the next 10 years after each pump because of the high inflation rate.

Unless, we see a miracle of demand similar to bitcoin hehehe.
7152  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: EOS and Ethereum might be pumped in China this year on: February 13, 2019, 01:20:10 AM
I reckon the pump is on. However, it appears that EOS might be pumped more than Ethereum. I also speculate that Ethereum might end its position within the top 5 in 3 years more or less.
7153  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UFC on ESPN 1: Ngannou vs Velasquez Prediction and Info Thread on: February 12, 2019, 04:57:12 AM
Agreed that Cain is the best heavyweight, however he has been out of the octagon for 2 years. How would we know that he would be the same Cain Velasquez? Also, he has been suffering with reoccuring injuries in all of his career in the UFC.
7154  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Grin Observer - GRN/BTC - Price Movement and Discussion on: February 12, 2019, 04:39:18 AM
@infofront. Was he using a 2hr chart? I reckon that it implies that the next market cycle would also be as long as only 2 to 3 weeks hehehe.
7155  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Generational change – the most powerful Bitcoin price catalyst on: February 12, 2019, 04:07:32 AM
I have no comments for this article except to say that I agree.

Also, generational change will not only be a price catalyst for bitcoin alone. It might also be a price catalyst for other cryptocoins that might help create a new economy without the banking monarchs and their puppet politicians.

Welcome to the final frontier hehehe.


Kraken VP Austin Alexander

Alexander, who Co-Founded Wall Street’s Bitcoin Centre in 2013, revealed his moment of realisation while speaking to Australian crypto trader and educator Craig Cobb on the Trader Cobb Crypto Show.

“Four years ago now, I was working with some young kids in New York City… They needed to buy some kind of chips or something from China,” said Alexander.

“I was giving them some advice and looking at some plans and stuff and I said ok, you’re going to need to send this big wire over to China to pay for these goods and neither of these kids had a bank account."

“I explained to them what they’re going to need to do and they thought it was a joke, they couldn’t believe how contrived and difficult this process was when all they had known in their short financial experience… All they had known is Bitcoin and Bitcoin works, they trust it and it works and its normal to them.”


He says more Bitcoin price waves like we saw in 2017, will only help the cause.

“Each one of those waves you have more and more people, who at all levels, more people who are becoming introduced to the concept of Bitcoin for the first time.

“Bitcoin is very different, different than anything that has come before, it has overlaps with money, it has overlaps with commodities… The fact is that it’s a brand new file in people’s brains."


“Through the ups and the downs, mind share and the kind of global understanding that Bitcoin exists and the global understanding of the dynamics of Bitcoin, is what makes Bitcoin valuable, that mind share is just increasing and I think with that it’s just going to be normalised.

@figmentofmyass. It might also be Tom Lee and Fundstrat that bought all those bitcoins that caused the small pump. We will see him go to more financial news shows again to hype the merchandise hehehe.

In any case, have we always been under Tom Lee's games? Was he selling when he was hyping his $25k prediction last year to fool everyone to buy while he was selling? Is he fooling everyone to buy along side of him today?

OK so I'm perusing stories for my next news roundup article...

Can someone explain to me what the appeal of a GOX reboot is? Its like re-invigorating a movie franchise that everyone hated. The Mighty Ducks Part III.

Is it pretty much just to satisfy duped customers? Not sure a GOXCoin is gonna cut it.

https://cointelegraph.com/news/goxrising-movement-aims-to-reboot-mt-gox-exchange-make-gox-coin-for-creditors

If I was his mother I'd go round his house, drive a police battering ram into his solar plexus and circumcise him while he thrashed on the floor of his hallway.

I forget if I told you this already but you are quite the poet and you write a lot of passages that I can't help but visualize... ouch.

Is there a reboot or is there only a rumor of a reboot? I heard a Brock Pierce is making a deal to purchase MtGox, however Mark Karpeles denied that there was no purchase agreement drafted and record of payments for shares.
7158  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Grin Observer - GRN/BTC - Price Movement and Discussion on: February 11, 2019, 03:38:28 AM
This pump is good. However, am I the only person who does not think that it will not be long before the inflation begins pushing the price down again? Year 2 will have 100% inflation.

@VB1001. More views might also be more hype, I reckon. Grin is also a new project.

Roma is only the 5th film to be nominated for best picture and best foreign film at the same time. However, it will be the first time in history for a film to win in those 2 categories at the same time if Roma wins both.

I reckon this might not occur. Cold War might win best foreign film and the odds is good on 6.75 hehe.

7160  Economy / Speculation / Technical analysts becoming bullish on bitcoin on: February 11, 2019, 02:40:49 AM
According to Tom Lee, however hehehe. He is back and he is very bullish as always when he was interviewed in Fox Business. He also mentioned that bitcoin's fair value is his $25k price prediction of 2017 ahahahahaa!



Citing, a piece of analysis from the ill-named “Magic Poop Cannon,” a well-followed, yet oddly titled crypto trader, Lee remarked that technical analysts that were bearish in early-2019 are becoming “incrementally bullish” on BTC. But why is that?

According to the analysis that Lee, a former managing partner at JP Morgan & Chase, cited, the odds are increasing that the “Bitcoin Bear” is dead. Magic, who made a comment that BTC is most likely to bottom at $2,000 earlier this week, remarked that Friday’s jaw-dropping rally presents a positive technical case for the flagship cryptocurrency.

The trader remarked that Friday’s 8% move, which set BTC above $3,700, rallied back into a triangle formation that was important before the late-January sell-off. Magic claims that if BTC can close its daily candle above ~$3,600, “this [will be] very bullish.”

As hinted at earlier, Lee’s recent “hopium” high comes after he made an appearance on American television to talk Bitcoin. He explained on-air that $25,000 is a “fair value” for the leading cryptocurrency, citing the thirst for an uncorrelated digital asset that isn’t only used for speculative purposes, but as a newfangled form of money and store of value too.
