@squatter. Tokenization and replacing networks with markets is not the issue. ICOs can be a good way to raise the funds to start a project. But there are scammers everywhere and the success of the projects are not anymore judged in if they work or not but by the value of their tokens in the market. An example of this is Ethereum.

@buwaytress. I have not checked yet but I reckon Nitrogensports have them back again. I will use that the next time I update the odds. Also, yes Tolkien is the best in the fantasy genre but his books are very hard to read. The way the were written was the same as reading old English writings from the medieval ages hehehe.
Have you heard that Amazon will make a Lord of the Rings show?
Thanks for the feedback, and do update here if you find any Bitcoin props for GoT. I'm OK with Nitro, I have an account there but I'm trying to consolidate all my prop betting onto one sportsbook. Haha, yes, I suppose Tolkien can be difficult to begin, I actually had a very difficult time reading it for the first time, but I thoroughly enjoyed it on my latter readings. In between I read quite a bit of fantasy in my teens... Dragonlance writers, Raymond Feist, of course, RR Martin and Stephen King also have writing that's very accessible (and they both wrote a lot of tv scripts for Twilight Zone type sci-fi, so due recognition there). I actually thought Dragonlance would get its TV series, but maybe the fanbase is too old now. Hope Amazon does more justice to Tolkien. The Tolkien estate probably learnt its lesson from the past. I think material is always dumbed down for audiences but GoT proved that audiences are actually a lot more intelligent than previously thought. Hehehe. The Peter Jackson version was done for commercial reasons and not to educate the viewers about Tolkien and his universe. His invention of the Elven language alone would be enough to move anyone's mind. Also, I reckon Ralph Bakshi's version was trying to tell the story better, but sad that they did not have enough money to finish it.

I thought that Pacquiao was only fighting for money and he would be knocked out before the 6th round. But I never expected him beating Matthysse, and that too in such a comprehensive manner. My respect for Pacquiao has increased by a hundred times after watching the match.
Would you watch Floyd Mayweather versus Manny Pacquiao part 2? I know that there might be some boxing promoters from Floyd's group excited to create a storyboard leading to that super fight again hehehe. What Floyd should do is send a dirty tweet criticizing Manny. Hehehe, wouldn't it be nice to see them fight again not just for the glory but for all the money that both of them are going to make. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) . It would be bigger than Floyd vs Connor and definitely can topple the PPV records of their first fight. Agreed, and in the present situation, that storyboard should be made for the fans and also if they want money. Floyd Mayweather is still undefeated and Manny Pacquiao is now a champion again that proves he is still a worthy fighter. If the UFC's Dana White was a boxing promoter, he would be talking to both of them by now hehehe.

Ripple can relax now hehe. I also reckon the next to be listed on Coinbase is Stellar, which is a Ripple fork, and which I reckon is also a security token, that might have a big future as an alternative payment platform in America. What are the biggest exchanges in America? Will they also need to apply as a broker-dealer? Federal regulators have approved US cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase to operate as a broker-dealer, the company announced today. The approval means Coinbase will be able to offer blockchain-based coins that are categorized as securities in addition to letting users trade Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ether and Litecoin.
“Ultimately, we can envision a world where we may even work with regulators to tokenize existing types of securities, bringing to this space the benefits of cryptocurrency-based markets — like 24/7 trading, real-time settlement, and chain-of-title,” Coinbase President and Chief Operating Officer Asiff Hirji said in a statement. Coinbase also intends to offer crypto securities trading, margin and over-the-counter (OTC) trading, and new market data productsRead in full https://dailyhodl.com/2018/07/16/breaking-coinbase-cleared-to-list-crypto-securities-act-as-an-investment-advisor-and-operate-as-a-broker-dealer/

The only thing that we could say in this moment is that China is now making some stupid moves cause they are just "losing" opportunity to be the main country connected to crypto so America could take advantage in this part of "future" economy.
I am actually happy that China isn't taking advantage of the crypto craze. If Japan remains the main player in crypto terms, it has all the potential to become a superpower in the next few decades. I however still think that China will return to the crypto space after they have figured out how to properly deal with it legally. If they wanted to get rid of everything related to crypto they would have taken care of the miners there as well. It may be that Bitmain has some power there to delay the process or completely be free to operate there for ever. We shouldn't underestimate how powerful they are politically.... I reckon America is also very happy that China is not taking advantage of the crypto craze hehehe. What would have been used as a tool to have an advantage against them can be used possibly by them to have the advantage against China and other opposing countries on Trump's trade wars. What if America, after setting up all the needed infrastructure for bitcoin in their country, starts requiring that trading with them should be in bitcoin?

@pooya87. Agreed. But think of what would the reactions be if I posted the very bullish articles that were as crazy during December, or after the bull market on January or February. I reckon everyone would be clamoring for more exaggerated bullish news hehehe.

@LeGaulois. That is easy to say today, but I reckon it was difficult to accept for many people at that time. When I posted some news articles on the coming bear market during January, many responded so negatively to the articles and they were telling me to stop spreading doomsday stories.
Also, there is the same negative reaction when I post bullish news articles today hehehe.
well to be fair you were posting "doomsday stories" back then, at least most of the times. an example: bitcoin should be worth $20talking about price dropping to $900so i'd say the reaction you received was perfectly justified. and today's news that you call bullish is just as bad in my opinion. they are all exaggeratedThe titles are exaggerated, but those are not mine. I copied and pasted them because they were the titles of the news articles. But if you read my own reactions on the articles, they were not spreading doomsday stories. Also, the other reactions from the bearish articles and the bullish articles are the same in the denial that the bull or bear market is over hehehe.

There is more movement to make America great again in bitcoin. What China should be doing is reflect on how stupid they are for throwing out a good opportunity to be the bitcoin capital of the world. Now the American government is slowly welcoming the cryptospace and might use that to leverage themselves back to world economic might. The US House of Representatives is giving Bitcoin and cryptocurrency a big boost by labeling digital currencies “the future of money” ahead of a key hearing on Capitol Hill.
The hearing will begin on Wednesday, July 18th and is expected to be livestreamed starting at 2:00pm EST. Lawmakers in the powerful Financial Services committee will host the event, which is titled “The Future of Money: Digital Currency.”Read in full https://dailyhodl.com/2018/07/13/us-congress-calls-digital-currencies-the-future-of-money-ahead-of-key-hearing/

Bitcoins mined per month minus expenses, initial outlay of capital to start the mining farm and high difficulty would give the 12 officers of the Russian intelligence agency very small income. It would be cheaper for them to buy the bitcoins hehehe.
In any case, just another article giving the false information.

@BitcoinNewbie15. Have you learned nothing hehehe. George R.R. Martin is known to change the story when the fans have already gotten accustomed to one suggestion of what might happen.
I reckon it might be an unhappy ending. The Night King must rule because a long winter is required to destroy the old realm and give way to the new.

@LesPristy. Can you tell us more? Your website, Github and where to contact you? Is this a personal project or is there a company behind this?
In any case, call me aroused in curiousity hehehe.

It appears that there are well positioned people in the cryptospace that have not lost their sense of humor despite their high standing. Yes Jessie Powell, you hehehe. Also, this is simply a crafty effort to do or achieve market manipulation by Coinbase. It deserves more than trolling. Coinbase, the largest US-based digital currency exchange, has officially announced that it is “exploring the addition” of five new cryptocurrencies to its platform. The five cryptocurrencies being considered are Cardano (ADA), Basic Attention Token (BAT), Stellar Lumens (XLM), Zcash (ZEC), and 0x (ZRX).
Coinbase has come under fire in the past — particularly regarding its listing of Bitcoin Cash (BCH), which preceded allegations of insider trading.
Despite the apparent attempt at remaining transparent, the statement of intent has led many to question why the exchange giant is even making an announcement of its “exploration” at all.
Coinbase competitor Kraken — a US-based cryptocurrency exchange and “the world’s largest bitcoin exchange in euro volume and liquidity” — nevertheless took the opportunity to troll the San Francisco-based industry leader, tweeting:
Exciting and important revelation for the community today. Kraken has been contemplating the exploration of maybe adding over 1600 new coins, pending the outcome of our highly sophisticated review process.

I reckon America's slow renewed acceptance of bitcoin mining, trading and commerce will make the country the leader in cryptospace dominance. I also reckon that it will make America great again hehehe. In any case, the biggest loser is China. Their chance for cryptospace dominace fell on their lap, but what did they do? They will play catch up again. July 12, 2018, state regulators approved a new billing framework that permits a local utility supplier in Massena to review individual supply contracts in a way that shields other users from price changes. Under this framework, mining operations will be able to individually negotiate their supply contracts and prices, which gives them a route out of the blanket increase for miners that was approved earlier.
In a statement released on July 12, New York State Department of Public Service Chair John Rhodes said:
“We must ensure that business customers pay a fair price for the electricity that they consume. However, given the abundance of low-cost electricity in Upstate New York, there is an opportunity to serve the needs of existing customers and to encourage economic development in the region.”Read in full https://btcmanager.com/new-york-looks-to-attract-cryptocurrency-miners-with-new-electricity-tariffs/

@LogitechMouse. Which analyst said that? I reckon he has a talent for stating what is clear and self evident. If he was a cryptocoin analyst, he might be ignored by the bitcoin news media for making very boring predictions hehehe.
Also, why was this fight promoted in Malaysia? Is Manny having problems with the IRS again?

Who gives a shit about outrageous predictions? If you recall the huge bull market in precious metals that ended in 2011, there were "experts" predicting $10,000 silver and $500,000 gold, and every increment up to those insane values. People were predicting the Dow would soon be at 36,000 back in 2000. And on and on.
My guess is that individuals who make these calls have a vested interest in being bullish, i.e., they have some of whatever it is they're pumping. That kind of stuff is commonplace in the Speculation section, where people who own bitcoin are always predicting it's going to the moon, wherever that is.
Don't listen to this hype, because that's all it is. I can guarantee you the dude in the OP who's predicting bitcoin is going to $60,000 didn't predict we'd fall from $20,000 to where we're at now.
But he predicted this fall during the high back in December, which might make his statement deserving of more attention. In any case, his prediction is mentioned in the article which I highlighted.

@stomachgrowls. I do not know what's more revulsive, the hackers blackmailing the people who love to watch porn and masurbate, the people who love to watch the people who love to watch porn and masturbate, the people who love to watch porn and masurbate, or the people who masturbate in the porn videos.
Also, why did Emin Gun Sirer receive this email? hehehe
