Unfortunately, this is one of those instances where crimes that are related to cryptocurrencies contribute to its overall stigma, in which it influences the decision in attracting new investors.
There is no hiding from the fact that the cryptocurrency market was riddled with scam and if you are not careful with your investment you are bound to loose your money, even now if you enter any DEX and if you are not familiar with the market and how to verify the contract address you will get scammed and we are hearing these on a daily basis. You need to be careful and it is good to hear that a scammer is caught and hopefully more will be behind bars in the coming years.

I haven't checked how many followers this character has (some say 400 000), and I believe you will agree that this is a real trifle compared to Mr. Mars's 58+ million. I dare say that its impact is quite insignificant regardless of all followers (I bet he has at least 10-20% bots/fake accounts), and it is clear to everyone that he uses Bitcoin only as bait for what he actually promotes - just read the OP and everything will be clear to you.
I am also hearing about Gokhshtein the fake Einstein Cheesy but he is only having 405K followers than the dreamer Mars man who always play with the market. From what i think he wanted publicity talking about Bitcoin and he got that fame and now we are discussing about him in the forum as if he is some saint who predicts the market  Cheesy.

Anything around 280 runs India have the team to chase the score and i would like to see how Shikhar Dhawan will perform during crucial situation.
Sri Lanka started carefully but they lost 4 wickets already and India is having complete control in the match and if Sri Lanka can score above 250 runs it would be a good total, i would like to see a competitive match so that i could place some bets rather than a one sided performance.

Zimbabwe is struggling and hopefully another victory for Bangladesh.
Zimbabwe was somehow able to score 240 runs and it depends upon how Bangladesh is going to chase, i am expecting any easy win for them, hope they will not mess up.

And here are the full results. I think Tate surprised everyone a bit with the stoppage. Jeremy Stephens is done with UFC, he's gonna get cut. He can still build a name for himself in some other organization. But that's it from his UFC run. Mostly remembered for the 'Who da fok is that guy' and the Emmett controversy.
Miesha Tate did not surprise me as i was rooting for her to win and as expected Islam Makhachev won easily even though he was taken down once, it was a mauling just like his mentor Khabib used to do and he called out Tony Ferguson, Michael Chandler and Rafael dos Anjos but i would like to see him against Tony Ferguson.

I do not think the UFC will cut Jeremy Stephens because he is never in a boring fight.

@TheNineClub. Agreed. After 5 years away from MMA Tate is returning and she was saying that she wants to fight for a championship during the post fight interview. The skeptical me thinks she has secret information that Amanda Nunes will retire hehehe.
May be she thinks that Amanda Nunes will retire but she is dominating the sport and can make money doing what she likes in a dominant way and there is no one that could challenge her, let her make money rather than retiring now and if Miesha Tate or anyone else needs to be a champion Amanda should retire  Cheesy.
905  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Huge gains and still holding ? on: July 18, 2021, 06:57:27 AM
The biggest mistake anyone can do is still holding unto their altcoins when bitcoin touched 60k weeks ago and still holding strong when the fall began weeks ago, imagine someone still holding HEX token when the coin did 40x already? If you are someone like this friend I don't know what your aim is but sorry to say you are doing it wrong. Check yourself cos it's possible you are struggling with greed.
If anyone who invested in any iCO or IDO and experienced a huge rally in your investment and still you are holding your coins expecting further rally and then the market going for a correction and you end up holding the coins is a bad dream anyone who invested in the market experienced and there are some coins which never rallied after their initial rally and if i invest in any project i will not wait for the long haul, book the profit and get out at the first rally.
906  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Manny Pacquiao vs Errol Spence Jr - August 21 on: July 17, 2021, 06:29:34 PM
pacquiao still has the punching power. odd will almost triple your money. i'm probably going to give it a try win or lose. it's still Pacquiao. i hope he isn't badly affected by the critics in politics which he collided with a popular president in the country.
If Manny Pacquiao is still having the punching power and the speed he used to have in his prime then no one is going to defeat him. I am a boxing fan and i have no idea about his political career but i know from social media and new channels that he is helping his community and that he did not fight for the past two years especially because of the global pandemic.

on the other hand, Spence is the undisputed champ. you can't just knock the man without struggling. he is also younger, the fatality he can damage while Pacquiao has aged...result could be..
Errol Spence is the undisputed champion and he is younger and he is able to defeat Manny Pacquiao then that could help him launch his career and big money fights after that.
907  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: WHICH COUNTRIES COULD FOLLOW EL SALVADOR BY MAKING BITCOIN LEGAL TENDER? on: July 16, 2021, 08:18:27 PM
El Salvador may be the first country to adopt bitcoin as legal tender, but recent developments suggest that it might not be the last. Politicians in several other countries in Latin America have already expressed an interest, with some even adding bitcoin laser eyes to their Twitter profiles as a symbol of support for the cryptocurrency.
I am not following these news and if other countries are planning to accept Bitcoin as a legal tender it is good for the market and it will legitimize for countries that are in two minds.

One such lawmaker is Paraguay Congressman Carlos Rejala, who hopes to pass a bill next month aimed at attracting crypto businesses. If it passes, the next step would be to present a second bill that would officially recognise bitcoin as legal tender.
Attracting cryptocurrency business will bring huge changes for their economy and the countries that are able to identity that will pass the bill so that they could attract business that will increase job opportunities and good for their economy.

 But if that is really what he meant then you are right imagine thats the only money you have , you dont have work or any other source of income then that would likely to happen to you. But i am just asking when is that the good time to sell for you self? because for me is anytime as long as i need it like i need money now so i sell it now although it would go higher later on.
After the pandemic majority are in a position that they need to sell off their coins to sustain and then there are many that planned on investing knowing that the halving is approaching and many missed the opportunity because many lost their jobs and some are waiting to get their salary credited on time and if you have taken any home loans or any form of loans then you are stuck and i will not think twice in booking my profit and taking care if i am in a situation like that.
909  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Identifying Satoshi Would Be a BAD Thing on: July 16, 2021, 04:14:56 PM
Governments and financial institutions would now have the identity of the individual that is attacking the very infrastructure upon which they made a fortune.   This is bad news.
While I am not insinuating they would have gone after Satoshi's life, I firmly believe they would have done everything in their massive amount of power to defame, discredit, and slander the founder of Bitcoin.
For a long time even i thought that if Satoshi is identified we will see a massive attack against him from all the media around the world but that is not true, when some of the so called Satoshi came forward we did not see any attack and Vitalik Buterin who is having the second trending coin is not attacked by any media and his platform facilitated billions of dollars worth of scam and no one attacked Vitalik Buterin, so this is just a conspiracy we are creating.
910  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Versus Ethereum Cryptocurrency Market Share on: July 16, 2021, 02:54:26 PM
I'm thinking Ethereum will grow at faster speed than Bitcoin will grow in 2021. Can Bitcoin increase its market share above 50% again in 2021 or will Ethereum gather more momentum to occupy larger shares? Ethereum's now starting to increase the market share which makes Bitcoin dominance shrink.
Does it really matter in 2021, there are literally thousands and thousands of other projects and millions are invested in new projects and you think the dominance of Bitcoin should be a talking issue, basically all these projects were created to convert them to Bitcoin and wait for the long run and even now some are in the market to invest in the new projects so that they could convert them to Bitcoin and end up reaping a huge profit.
911  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: July 16, 2021, 11:55:35 AM
I am now enjoying the match of Bangladesh vs Zimbabwe. I think the two teams are of the same quality. Bangladesh team is not as strong as before. The players are not in form, and no player is consistently performing well. Previously we could see a stable performance from Shakib, Mahmudullah or Mushfiqur. Now they are not very successful either. At the end of 44 overs, Bangladesh scored only 219 runs. I think Bangladesh will win if they can collect more than 260.
Bangladesh is hard to predict, i did not expect them to cross 250 runs and now they are able to set a target of 277 runs, i should have went with the first innings score of above 238 runs but i was not confident when they lost 4 wickets for 74 runs and their major players were back in the pavilion and then to come back into the match with their tail end players is incredible and they now have a good total to defend.
912  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [ BOXING POLL ADDED ]: Fury vs Wilder III - THE TRILOGY IS BACK ON !!! on: July 15, 2021, 11:58:21 PM
~
The trilogy will happen, it's already in the contract, right?
The trilogy will happen but i doubt it will take place on the announced date in October as i am expecting the fight to be reschedules again due to health condition. 

Does everyone trust Fury’s camp to be telling the truth? The skeptical me thinks Tyson Fury is only trying to do what Wilder’s camp did to him when Wilder’s camp broke Fury’s unification versus Joshua.

Another skeptical thought is Tyson Fury might be doing this as to cause more anxiety on Wilder which will certainly affect him psychologically. I speculate another postponement until Fury announces he is ready on January 2022 hehehe.
It is a good conspiracy but if the camp of Tyson Fury is making this up it means they are delaying the fight which means he is not fighting any other fighters either and i do not think they will waste time like that. Grin


913  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: July 15, 2021, 10:42:46 PM
I might be wrong but Imo and observation Strac lost all his mojo after Sand_paper_gate_saga. I noticed him struggling numerous time after his South Africa's stint. He might still able to give match winning spell once a while which everyone witnessed in last T-20 match against Windies but its clear that he's not same the Starc.
Mitchell Starc is playing with his old reputation and even i do not remember the last time he came out and made an incredible performance for the team, may be his swing is gone and i still remember him bowling deadly yorkers at will at his high pace but now we are not seeing that kind of spell from him for a long time, May be he is not fully fit.
914  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: July 15, 2021, 05:15:45 PM
The use of steroids might also be another reason for Conor’s weak bones. Steroid use causes osteoporosis according to some health websites. The bone loss caused by this also happens very quickly.
This is not a fair assessment, whenever Conor McGregor is fighting for the UFC they are undergoing stringent steroid test and he would have popped any time if he was taking anything, it might be true that people taking steroid might be having weak bones but there is no way Conor McGregor would have taken that, if it is some other fighting organisation without drug test then we could believe that something fishy was going on.

Why should the fans turn against him? There is no doubt that the BCB has unfairly targeted their best player. Due to ego issues, the BCB bosses have targeted Shakib whenever they got a chance to do that. They have withheld his NOC, and have taken disciplinary actions without any basis. If he wanted, then he could have shifted to another country, and earned a lot more money. Anyway, his hot headed nature is not helping this either. Recently he created a lot of controversy during one of the Dhaka Premier Division Twenty20 matches.
I am not sure about the reason when they started the issue with BCB and Shakib Al Hasan but i came to know when he was banned about a charge a few years ago and he might not be a good character in their books because of his personality and and not listening to them and he is getting offers from other franchise boards when they are having matches and may be that is the reason
916  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [ BOXING POLL ADDED ] JOSHUA vs USYK on: July 14, 2021, 08:53:18 PM
Im not hyping Usyk, but there seems to be not such a big difference for him to box in cruiserweight and heavy. Cruiser is below 91kg. According to wiki Usyk is 98kg that means he always cut in his past. He is 1.91m. The guy that tall simply can not be light  Smiley So in general he was always sort of a heavyweight. Last fight Joshuas weight was 240 pounds or about 108kg. If Usyk gains a bit (and he will), there will be not such a big difference between them. But due to pumped muscles, Joshua looks bigger if we put them together  Grin
I was checking the social media pages of Oleksandr Usyk and it looks like he is trying to increase his weight for the fight and in my opinion it will not end up great, he should not increase more weight than he usually fights and this is boxing and if ground fighting was involved then gaining weight would have made sense, i wont be surprise if Oleksandr Usyk gets tired easily if he is fighting above his normal fighting weight.
917  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: British police seize $408 million and arrest woman aged 39 on: July 14, 2021, 07:44:12 PM
The first name in my head was Ruscha Ignatowa she's a Bulgarian fraudster. She was a founder of the One Coin ponzi but wiki shows her age at 41 not 39. She's been sentenced by US authorities for wire fraud, securities fraud and money laundering.

British police didn't name the woman they'd arrested or name the cryptocurrencies they seized but if it's her it's certain she'll get extradited to the US where she'll face up to 90 years jail for the ponzi.
That would be awesome if everyone on that One Coin Ponzi are caught, they made a mockery and there were many that supported them and there were many scams but the One Coin one was really huge and they disappeared for years and glad to hear that scammers are going behind bars even if it takes a few years, you cannot run and avoid the authorities especially when the amount stolen is huge.
918  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [ BOXING POLL ADDED ]: Fury vs Wilder III - THE TRILOGY IS BACK ON !!! on: July 13, 2021, 10:26:14 PM
What are the chances the Fury-Wilder trilogy will not go ahead this year? Let us say for example a week before the re-scheduled fight Wilder tests positive for COVID-19 or say Fury tests positive again, it would mean more uncertainty on the merry-go-round of misfortune of the fighters.
It depends upon how Tyson Fury is going to recover, there are some that struggle for months to regain their physical condition after getting infected and i could not find any updates regarding the condition of Tyson Fury, may be we might see the trilogy as the year end fight but it all depends upon how Tyson Fury is recovering and how soon he can attain top physical condition.
919  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: July 12, 2021, 11:59:26 PM
I don't think that the lack of quality players is the reason. Last time, the women's domestic tournament involved a total of 38 teams and the quality was satisfactory (at least for the elite division). I have noticed a number of talented female players, who are not fortunate enough to be considered by the national selectors.
I am not ready to hear that earlier excuse because you are literally telling that the selectors are corrupted which i highly doubt. Earlier we had discussion regarding that BCCI is looking to cash in the next big thing and if they compare the pay-scale they are bound to get it is not going to be easy. I am not aware of the television viewership numbers in sports but the reason BCCI is not entertaining is because of the revenue model they will get..

Another Monday, another decent Multi bet picked up by a Brazillian customer betting 5 BRL!  Well Done Sir ^^^

Thanks to all those who listened in to the Sunday Fun Day marathon! Wimbledon, 2x "Behind the Bet" and then Euros Final.
The odds of 209.85 is really crazy and it is inspiring to see these huge bets because it will pick on you so that we will go for long parlay and pray that end up winning in the end, i would like to hear whether this is the only combination bet he made that day or he made multiple combinations and one end up winning because i am curious to know whenever i see huge parlay wins.
