im assuming bitpay involves linking a bank account to use its services; that being said, it should be pretty difficult for the average user to bypass the service blocking bank account associated with those countries. if youre using it just as a wallet, which is what i assume is the extent of your use for it given your statement, you shouldnt really be limited too much with the use of a vpn.
You mean for the merchants? Not sure about it however once I have used Bitpay to pay for my hosting and I did not require anything. I just downloaded their wallet. Sent the required BTC I needed to pay and then when I got the invoice link from the service I was buying I paid them using the link of BitPay.

But honestly speaking I did not like it. I had to send BTC from my account to BitPay then from BitPay to the service provider which was a hassle any way.

Could be tight if Afghanistan lose couple of wickets from here. as of now score is 201/4 and they need 62 runs in 69 balls.



Now they need 54 from 56 balls. They have 6 wickets in hand (I think 5 wickets actually coz the opener retired), so I do not think this will be any hard job for them as long as they do not lose any wicket. They do not have much pressure too. Afghanistan should win today. :-(

Srilanka going slowly, not sure if they can win. Angelo can do some magic if he gets going.
You think Sri Lanka has a chance today?

The Pakistan team looked a little bit indecisive today at bat, was expecting Imam-ul-Haq and Zaman to do a bit better but Azam stepped up when needed. I don't know if they are going to have the power and drive to keep up with teams like England and India though.
I do not think Pakistan can give any challenge to team like India, England and Australia. For sure with not England, we have seen it from the recent England vs Pakistan series. Pakistan team has no balance both in bowling and batting unit in my opinion. See how they are playing today. Team like Afghanistan is doing better than them in both bowling and batting unit.

Quote
Here's my picks for the warm-up games tomorrow:

England v Australia

- Joseph Root: Total runs Over 37.5 (1.92)
- England Total Runs after 15 overs: Over 79.5 (1.63)
- Team with Top Scoring Batsman: England (1.72)

What are your thoughts? I'm really looking forward to watching the England game tomorrow - hopefully with a BBQ and a beer if the weather stays kind  Grin
~snip~

I am expecting an exciting match between England vs Australia. If fact both team has the ability to win this world cup.

At this moment the score is
AFG 111/1 (18.4)  CRR: 5.95  REQ: 4.85
Afghanistan need 152 runs


Only 152 more runs needed from rest of 31 overs where 9 wkts still on Afghanistan hands. So I think the match will go to Afghanistan if any miracle will not  happen by the Pakistan team.
Afghanistan now 200/4 after 38 overs. They should win this match, the commentators are saying the same. Unless Pakistan is able to take some quick wickets, there are no hope for them.

Pakistan team is in their worse shape I think.

My best guess, without knowing your transaction id or address you funded, would be that your ledger just created a change address. This is the way the protocol works.
~snip~
It's indeed a change address.

This can be disabled using the Electrum. Once you connect your ledger using the Electrum then it's easy to change the setup like we normally do in Electrum but with the live and chrome extension I do not think it can be disabled.

OK thanks for the reply.  Is there anyway to reverse that or recover the funds in that instance?

When you open the ledger live then do you see the balance that you are expecting or you see the balance has 0.057BTC less than you expected total?

Not so easy to predict that Pakistan will win  Roll Eyes
I know many of us have put their money on Pakistan today as they were the favorites against Afghanistan but their batting have disappointed so far. If there bowling failed too, many will lose a lot of money today.
Hate to say that there bowling is failing too.
I think Pakistan will have a bitter experience today. I hope not many people placed much bet in this match. Surely everyone was going after Pakistan. Now look at the score of Afghanistan: 61-0 over 9.1 where their target is only 263 runs in 50 overs.

Thank you. You can PM me the affiliate link. I will probably check and compare the fee, minimum bet, withdraw and then join.
Seems both the sites are good because two persons have already vouched for them.
With sportsbet.io there are no withdrawal fee. Minimum withdrawal is 2mBTC, minimum deposit is 1mBTC. The only thing is that before making the withdrawal you will need to wait for the deposit to have at-least three confirmation since they are allowing you to bet with the coin even before confirming once you deposit.

I will PM you the link shortly.

Cheers :-)

Recently in England ( Pakistan vs England series), the average score was above 300+ . Pakistan did not bat well and able to make only 262 against Afghanistan which is alarming.  I think Afghanistan being the weakest team in the tournament, Pakistan should restrict them and must not loss to Afghanistan.  Angry
The way Afghanistan is moving I think today we will see another lose for Pakistan which will be a disaster for them for sure. Their bowling attack is really toothless now. What a shame.

I don't have much experience in betting through online, but did some offline betting once. We are close to the Copa America, I am likely to place some bet. Let me try to increase my BTC  Cheesy
Can you name some of the easiest betting platform? Would love to hear.
sportsbet.io
cloudbet.com

If you're using a service that uses BitPay for accepting payments, you won't be able to do so anymore.



Use VPN. It's an old news I think. You can not open their wallet if you are from any of these country however there are always a way out :-P

As I said, use VPN :-)

By the way, I do not like to use BitPay. I feel like it's following paypal business model.

Welcome back to the community.

Yes its seems current account recovery team is user friendly and very active. If some have enough required evidence to prove ownership, then it's not very hard task for them to recover account. However, keep safe your account, use strong password and enjoy forum discussion.

Best of luck,
What do you mean by user friendly? I agree with the part "active" though :-)
Take it easy
7732  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: May 24, 2019, 01:19:59 PM

In the other thread, as I mentioned chances of Pakistan being lost is high because their total is pretty lower.
If Pakistan had their previous glory of the bowling attach then I would say they would easily win this match defending 262 runs but looking at this inexperience bowling attack I am worried if they will be able to defend it.

I will hate to see them losing because in that case I will lose 15mBTC. Let's hope the best for them. Come on Pakistan :-P

If I were you mate, as long as bitcoin so far is not reaching 10,000$ each I Suggest you to buy Bitcoin then hold.
Because I am very sure that once it happen, you're gonna regret why you didn't buy when bitcoin below 10k$.
Besides, for what I can see with the performance of Bitcoin in the market was also good.
Like people regretted when the price was hitting $19k+.

This regretting part will always be there. Now people are regretting whey didn't they buy at $3,200 or $4,200 or below $4,500. It's the cycle which will be there even bitcoin price hit's the moon. Say $50k. People will regret why didn't they buy it when it was below $40k or $45k. :-)

In crypto there should be no regret.

Cheers :-)

Craig Wright is sneaky, but a lot of people know that bitcoin core is the only and real bitcoin,

there is no such coin as "bitcoin core", the name is "bitcoin" without any additional words appended to it. the name "bitcoin core" is the name of the full node implementation of bitcoin aka the client. i think you should stop reading /r/btc and bitcoin.com
"bitcoin core" is the misleading term for Roger Ver to establish his bCash shit. Bitcoin is Bitcoin, we all know about it so no need to add any extra words to separate it from Bitcoin Cash.

Bitcoin Cash is an altcoin.

Consider this:
The site name is Bitcoin.com but they are pushing BCH and they know they have to explain what is BCH so bringing Bitcoin was necessary. Now if they call Bitcoin only Bitcoin instead calling it "Bitcoin Core" then this will conflict them to push BCH since the site name is bitcoin.com. So they came up with this misleading term "Bitcoin core" to introduce the Bitcoin itself.

It's a trap for newbies to sell their BCH.

No, I don't think so. Only the admin panel in G Suite was affected.

G Suite is an integrated suite of secure, cloud-native collaboration and productivity apps powered by Google AI. Includes Gmail, Docs, Drive, Calendar, Meet and more.

This is what description says, here is a link https://gsuite.google.com/

I am sure a lot of people is using it, especially small businesses and companies.
Thank you, that's a relief from my side however this is something new to me. I hard about G Suite but never got interested to study about it. I thought it's another service extension of google like webmaster etc.

@Royse777 the match between Nadal and Djokovic was a tough one, I got cold feet and decided not to gamble. I was hoping to place a bet on Nadal winning it just a gut feeling, but then I felt he would loose the match because of his recent injuries but he proved me wrong and won. According to me Roger will go up to the semi finals as he has a good record in this tournament, but he won’t be winning the cup.
Problem with me that when I feel to gamble then even if I am not sure about an outcome I risk it based on my gut feeling. It does not work most of the time. I noticed I am successful when I place a bet purely based on analysis not gut feeling.

You could end up winning if you would trust your gut, in your case. Unlucky you :-P

@Royse777 you should easily win your first two bets where I’m favoring Pakistan to beat Afghanistan, though I expect Afghanistan will put up a strong fight. Srilanka vs South Africa is a straightforward match, and I feel South Africa will win it easily. The last match between India vs Newzealand is tricky, as this will be India’s first practice match after a long break, so I would not be comfortable on placing a bet on them or against them.
Afghanistan is putting up fight. Pakistan just lost another wicket and now they are 4 wickets down. 100 for 4 after 20.1 overs. The start was good but since Nabi and Rashid started to take strike Pakistan is losing wickets. Not sure how far they will go. They need to build a partnership.


About India vs New Zealand match, I am too in doubt but I will hope India will win because they are better side in every aspect than New Zealand.
7739  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: May 24, 2019, 10:52:59 AM
@OneHash: You have posted the same in two consecutive post :-)

By the way, two practice match today,

Pakistan vs Afghanistan
South Africa vs Sri Lanka

Easily predictable that Pakistan and South Africa should win however nothing is constant for Pakistan team. They had 60+ runs by losing only one wicket then in one over they lost two wickets. Now they are 3 wickets down and scored 97 after 19.3 overs. We need to wait till the end to see the winner I guess.

Don't you worry mate, I also lost on that match. I thought Djokovic could overcome Nadal that time, however, it looks like he was really tired going into the match.

~ship~

Seems like it was the bookies day LOL
Most of the prediction was in favor of Djokovic because of his recent form. Anyway, Nadal was outstanding in the first and third set. Djokovic couldn't do much about it.
