As per my experience, I think the biggest drawback for me is my inability to focus to be able to sustain long runs. I don't drink when I play blackjack, but I've noticed that I'm drained myself just to count the cards. That's why I just simply play just couple of hours and if I've noticed that I'm making mistakes then I quit. Yes it takes a lot of practice, but if you don't have that energy to concentrate in long stretches I guess sooner or later you will have slips up that will result you in losing money.

Why would it be unfortunate? They're going to do a rematch next year, there's some verbal agreement between the two already. Tyson Fury just wanted to take advantage to make more money prior to the fight. They need to hype it out and I'm sure Fury is wise enough not to lose to Wallin this September, just taking fight to keep his busy so that he won't fall on another 'personal' issue that he had before.

That's why I say "allmost all" bitcoin is going to be mined in the next 10++ years because we won't see the last bitcoin in 2140. 90%-99% for me will be enough, theoretically, there's 20999999.9769 million supply, not 21 m, due to the bug in the early days of bitcoin mining.

So let's continue to accumulate at 1 BTC in our lifetime.  

It's looks like there is another phishing attempt going on using Blockchain.info

Just giving you a heads-up guys, if you received such email, don't give such informations and check where the email come from.

Anyone noticed that we have breached 17,800,000 BTC already? Which means that 85% of all BTC have been mined. And in the next 10+ years we can all assumed that 'almost' all bitcoin is mined already. Have you accumulated at least 1 BTC in your wallet?

Current bitcoin mined:  17,851,062 BTC 

Yep, that's it, there are still a handful of managers who really study the project first before accepting it, because we all know that their reputation is on the line. We have seen lots of bounty managers gets red trusted for accepting project that is really scammy. As some point in time, they have the responsibility to bounty hunters and not be scammed by this criminals. DYOR is just one part of the equation.

Exactly, I can still feel the excited during that time. Everyone was jumping for joy and saying that we will see another all-time-high in 2018. However, crypto winter takes over the price plummeted to $3200 and a lot of investors lost their confidence in the market. At least though we have recovered this year, so as far as predicting the price, nobody can really tell us, all we can do is hope that we can breach.

What do you guys think? Is this the start of the Middle East crypto exchange boom?

There's a lot of money in that region, so it get's me thinking that perhaps majority of Middle East wealth will go to crypto.

Ok guys I just has this thought last night. I was watching Zion W. highlights in youtube and I was amazed by this kid, he was also a freak in nature. So this lead me to question the NBA fans here.

Which do you think is more gifted overall? The Greek Freak - Giannis or Zion who even though is too heavy at 285 lbs but can freely move around, jumps so high for a dunk and even a block and very very agile for his frame?

It's pretty obvious that the price can still go up in the next couple of days. So the best advise that we can give to you is not to sell at this point. Although as you have mentioned the price suddenly went down after reaching as high as $13k. But that is the nature of bitcoin, it's very volatile and unpredictable. So If I'm in your shoes, I would rather hold for the long haul so that you can maximize your profits.

This is the only hope that we're clinging for now. Manny signed with Al, so there's still hope that we can see a rematch in the next two years. But then again, we have the age factor to consider, Floyd's "health comes first" attitude might seal the deal that we won't see a rematch. Pacquaio has like 2-3 good match before he really faded away so I guess we also need to move one of not seeing the two best fighters next going at it.

For those QuadrigaCX holders who might have missed the news, it looks like they are very busy in the last month or so. There have been a claim process on-going so I do hope that you guys are still updated specially those who are victims here.

Goodluck!!!

No. Why the price increase is slowing down, and at the current rate, we need to double it to be able to hit $19k and I don't think that investors is willing to put more money in the market. Everyone is waiting for the block halving next year.  So I'm not expecting the price to hit $19k at the end of the year, we might be lucky if we hit around $15k, but I have no problem ending the year with that price. So let's see how it goes.

I have the same tools that @ socks435 uses to find other fake and phishing Electrum sites here: ⚠⚠️⚠~Beware on active phishing Electrum websites~⚠⚠️⚠ (Collection list updated).

So I scrape lots of data once in a while and see if I got a positive hit.

Again, I need the community's help to report this site so that it will be taken down.

@socks435 - kindly add this up to our list please. Thanks.

But that's about it, they just post all news related to bitcoin and crypto in general.

Hello guys,

Just wanted to update you on the latest bug the supposedly, affected VLC, thus its billions of customers including myself. It is reported as CVE-2019-13615 and was reported as "Remote Code Execution vulnerability". First reported here, https://www.cert-bund.de/advisoryshort/CB-K19-0634 and found its way to the NATIONAL VULNERABILITY DATABASE - https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2019-13615.

However, upon a closer look by the VLC team,

[1] VLC cannot replicated the bug
[2] The bug reporter uses an old Ubuntu version and of course outdated libraries.
[3] The bug reporter didn't contact VLC but instead go to the public

So it means that there are some flaw on the bug reporting process and VLC has fixed it already one year ago.

So I guess this is just a human error, however VLC is just asking those who have reported it to contact first their team and not to panic the public.

As a software tester myself, this is a nightmare, specially if I can't replicated or reproduce the bug. So we interact with the customers as ask for more details, etc etc.

Robinhood Brokerage Firm Alerts of Passwords Stored in Clear Text

He is still a decent player but I doubt that he can bring back the glory days of Linsanity. Damn, the good thing is that he was given the time to shine and proved his worth on the NBA, the bad thing is that he is in New York that time and rumours says that Carmelo has something to do with Lin being traded or something and the magic had ended.
