Just 12 minutes gone and there's 2 goals already in the Man Utd vs PSG match, Man Utd took an early lead through Lukaku, but it is all square again, However PSG are seeing loads of chances and should 3 - 1 up already
It is one of those crazy type games where the complete under rated team before the match with three of their top starting players side lined being pogba, martial and sanchez are playing better. But they have relied on the power of lukaku for the two goals to lead after the first half.
Congrats for those who bet on manchester united for the first half. Harkorede didnt you put a little on them for the first half like you usually do in your predictions?

It hasn't been reflected in the price yet but good to see that the hard fork was successful.
It wasn't supposed to have an effect on the price so don't expect any major movements. This was only an update to get closer to the final product which is Proof of Stake. Perhaps once ETH goes full PoS then we might see some price action, but until then, I would expect the ETH price to follow BTC price movements just like the rest of the market.

Nothing new, he's always trying to shit on Bitcoin while saying ETH is superior, which is not.
Yes this is true. It was an update coming up to the next one called istanbul.
https://smartereum.com/48587/ethereum-latest-update-ethereum-developers-prepare-to-activate-istanbul-shortly-after-the-successful-constantinople-hardfork-eth-news-today/

As for the price Vitalik has said previously it will take atleast 32 eth minimum to have staking active for your holding of ethereum.
https://twitter.com/vitalikbuterin/status/1002914813578637312?lang=en
Having this much per individual wallet will certainly bring the price up once the proof of stake upgrade is initiated. People will be buying it up in a frenzy weeks before it is announced and not be in the loop when they halted constantinople so abruptly.

Bet for PSG to win the match this time is indeed very promising profit with an odds of 1.5. If we look at the ajax yesterday it seems like anything will be possible in the match, but for MU at this opportunity it will be difficult to rise without Pogba, I'm also sure PSG will still win the match in the second leg because PSG have a good squad on every line and no doubt again.
My pick for tonight is PSG and Roma.

Roma may struggle a bit however I am expecting an easy win for PSG. I hope there will be no madness like we have seen in yesterday's match in between Real and Ajax.
You know in these uefa league matches there are always strange outcomes no matter how you weigh out the pro and cons of each team before making a sensible prediction on how it will end up at the conclusion of the match.
Somebody said pogba is not available for this game but instead are putting in a new player greenwood into the squad.

Well at least it is another publicity for Bitcoin and crypto,
Let's just hope that these wouldn't be a shitty movie that show people  that investing in crypto is a waste of time and money.
I think I will stick to the television series in development by netflix instead.
They seem to have more of way to grab the attention of their viewers down to an art. Wink

I read the thread and was shocked by this story with 330 btc and I can only say: Good job Cloudbet and also congratulations Swofty.
My trust returns to this Casino too  Smiley
I think they only paid him what he deposited even though the player said they paid him the full amount including his winnings. Which was I started to doubt after seeing their last login message saying they were untruthful with claiming who they were and having someone else posing as them so to claim the winnings.
I believe they came to an agreement with saying they paid him including winnings so for him to get his deposits refunded to him. Thats all of the BTC129
Because even on askgamblers he posted the same message with no tx id or anything else including no response from cloudbet about the case after that.
You maybe right but i understand cloudbet can actually paid the 330btc to secure their image on the other hand you cant proof your presumption while the owner(Swofty) of the btc claimed they sent him the full amount along with his winnings. I can only say your guess are baseless and should be ignore.
You can not go by what I have speculated what happened but I also can believe in what I have stated too in what happened in this case. From what I have seen from the user and how it was resolved. With swofty saying he was lying about his identity so he would be able to withdraw his winning because of attempting to evade his accounts ban on their platform makes them untruthful to begin with.
So if you want to believe in a proven liar on here then go right ahead. That is your prerogative.
I would go see what was written on askgamblers and see what more was said by this user and cloudbet not saying they did do the complete payout not just refund of their deposits is proof enough for some. They do not want to confirm or deny how much was paid out to swofty.

Day off is over.



Tomorrow's advance pick: NYK vs Suns -3.5

Battle between the non playoff teams, so no pressure for them.

Like we always do, we go with the momentum of the team, Suns are on a 2 winning streak and it seems like they love what they are doing.
Still playing at home and I'm expecting that they will get a better result against the Knicks, the last 2 teams they beat are good teams and I guess they are already tested and they understand they can win games.


Pick - Suns -3.5
Very nice pick for today and very early it roughly being 18 hours away from game time.
Knicks have made me lose two of my last bets I made and I am hoping for them to lose this one by alot. Cheesy
And to have you back to your winnings ways for the beginning of march!

I personally don’t think it would ever come to that point, since the value of bitcoin adjusts to satisfy the demand. I’d like to hear other opinions?

your question doesn't have anything to do with value of bitcoin or price.

shortage of bitcoin can only happen if there were more people wanting to have some amount of bitcoin but there weren't enough for them. for example this can happen if an extremely large number of coins were lost. the amount has to be huge though, something like 15 millions bitcoin lost! but that is highly unlikely to happen.
so we will continue to have a little less than the cap which is 21000000.00000000 bitcoin and that is enough for the world.
Some say the 21 million bitcoin limit is not set in stone. Like this thread
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5116424.0
But as far as I know from the very beginning it does have a cap of 21 million, but will they all be claimed and circulated is a different story. There have been lost and theft of a portion of those 21 million bitcoins as you have mentioned.
With the law of supply and demand the price can not fall below a certain point from now on going forward.

you are confusing two different discussions. one being about "theft" and another being about "lost".
when some bitcoin is being stolen it is not lost, it just goes into possession of someone else. by "lost" we mean truly lost like when you burn coins (example is sending them to an OP_RETURN output).
that topic you linked is mostly nonsense, 21 million is set in stone mathematically but whether we eventually reach that is another discussion about how much is actually lost. in which case you have to count all the real lost  coins.
True but theft can result in those bitcoins being lost as well.
Just look at the quadrigacx debacle that is still going on. They essentially stole the crypto which were held in confidence of their customers in cold wallets. But now those bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies are lost due to the wallets private keys being known only by the ceo of the company but he apparently died.
So the result was at the being a theft of their cryptocurrencies but then it became a loss without recovery in sight of those funds.

The Raptors came back in the 3rd only to loss in the 4th and this ended in a double digit loss for the home team.
Harden is still on his MVP level, though in early foul trouble but he explode in the 4th, he is very consistent in his 3 point shooting, his style of step up and side sweet before shooting is very effective, it's impossible to guard him that way.
Disappointing loss for the home team with such a good record there. A shame but this is how it is so near to the end of the regular season. The best ones are going into playoff mode to show what they are made of towards the top teams in their conference.

I would think this bet would be safer then betting on the gsw and the blazers games to be honest.
I agree somehow but we should still never underestimate the trailblazers because we've already seen many times before that Lillard can carry his whole team. He is also good in buzzer beating so still expect the possibilities of beating GS Smiley.
Very true cause they can come out of no where. I still cant get that buzzer beater by wade last week cause it killed my parlay bet.
I do remember seeing lillard hitting one during a sports highlight reel recently. So they can not be underestimate at this time of season either.
Just watching raptors being behind 19 points to houston and usually when they have such a huge lead they tend not to give those up so easily.
8338  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NBA 2018-2019 betting on: March 06, 2019, 01:34:25 AM
Raptors vs Rockets tonight.

what do you think about my bet Raptors -3.5?
This can be a tough call buds, we knew rockets can explode anytime and can beat heavier teams when the three points explode out from their hands,
but with the competitions between harden and kawhi, offense over defense, it's interesting to watch who's going to win.

Good luck buds, will see if your pick will bring you good result.
Raptors are good at home as well, they beat the Blazers and dominated the Celtics.
Another great game to witness tonight, let's see how the bigs will play in this game, and I also like to witness the competition between harden and Leonard.
The raptors do very well on home court and are 27wins - 6losses going into this game so they are favored to win it.
Harden is getting back on his horse for scoring 30+ game with ending his streak a few games ago.
But I believe tucker and gordon are not enough to help him out against a solid raptors team who are team killers when they get to their arena.

Just saw them release the official trailer over 2:00 minutes for the final season.
It gives alot of good shots and the dragons there are left in flight and it looks quite amazing. Smiley
I know everyone is talking about it since it is the last time to see this very lengthy series and who will win the throne.

Enjoy! Grin

Might as well include all the trailers from 2011 up until now just to see them in succession.

Like them after season 4 to be honest. The first couple are not in good quality cause I think hd was still not refined as it is now.
