Don't be very optimistic about this coin. It can do more harm to the crypto market than good. A large chunk of the current crypto market can shift to this coin, given the huge user-base that Facebook is having currently. On top of that, Facebook may try to monopolize the crypto-market, by destroying the other cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ether.

I am not too sure about that. The first manned mission may happen before 2030. Colonization is very difficult, given the climatic conditions. But as technology advances it may be made a reality. Taking an optimistic scenario, I would say that we may see human colonies in Mars by 2060 or 2070. If you want to think a bit more conservatively, then 2100 is a good target.

Competition for Bitcoin comes from fiat payment processors such as Paypal, Visa and Master and not from these worthless shitcoins. Altcoins are basically like parasites and all they can do is to leech off market cap and user-base from Bitcoin. I am not denying that there are a few altcoins which can be considered as exceptions, such as Ethereum and Monero.

Anyone who is aware of the history of Dogecoin will never invest in that currency. It was created as a mock cryptocurrency, and basically it is a simple ripoff of Bitcoin. Somehow it managed to build a large and loyal user-base, and the exchange rates went up. But despite all this, the developers have shown little interest in popularizing this coin. And that is a giant red flag for me. 

I thought about creating a fresh wallet and going for the KYC. But in the end decided not to do it. The risk is too high and the rewards are really low. $25 is not enough for taking a risk with the ID documents. Also, I have to say that this is a worrying signal coming from Blockchain.info. They had never asked for personal information before this.

My thinking is different. If there are too many exchanges, then the revenue per exchange can drop. And since limited funds are available for the operations, the exchanges may cut back on safety measures. And this can increase the risk of them getting hacked. If there are a few large exchanges, then they can employ a lot of security measures to thwart hacking attempts.

Bitcoin is sometimes termed as "Nerd money", because for elderly and middle-aged people the concept of crypto can be a bit difficult to grasp. Internet money (Paypal, Visa.etc) is not as complex as Bitcoin and therefore there is no point in comparing them with BTC. But as the old generation dies out, this hesitation for crypto is going to vanish.

Thurman's last couple of fights were not that bad, but it is true that he couldn't manage KOs. But even then, he seems to be on top form right now, when compared to Pacquiao who is busy with activities outside the ring. But right now everything looks unpredictable. I wouldn't be too surprised in case Manny gets a KO over Thurman on July 20.

McGregor/Pacquiao needs Floyd much more than Floyd needs McGregor/Pacquiao. 

But probably Floyd is thinking about a different opponent. And he is right when he prefers someone else. A fresh opponent may bring him more revenue when compared to a repeat rival. On top of that Floyd is already 42 years old and he knows that the time window for him is running out.

Can anyone tell me how many PPV subscriptions did this fight manage? I Googled quite a bit, but couldn't find the exact numbers. I expect the revenue from PPV to be low, as there wasn't much promotional campaigns and advertising. The media was also a bit quiet about this fight. But still I want the figures, so that I can make comparison with the other major fights.

You did the right thing by selling the tokens. In 95% if the the cases, you will incur losses if you hold on to your tokens. So don't think about these and concentrate on your next bounty campaign. There are a lot of bounty hunters out there who never got their deserving rewards. You can consider yourself lucky that you got paid on time.

Very difficult to agree with you. I don't have a favorable opinion about these IEOs. Sooner or later, they are going to end up like the ICOs. Considering how greedy some of these exchanges are, it is difficult to believe that they'll do all the research before allowing these IEOs. They will list those which are more profitable for them. They are not going to care about their future potential or viability.

Things will only improve if the bounty managers are able to weed out the scammers. There are users out there who will enroll for social media bounties using dozens of alt-accounts and facebook or twitter profiles purchased from the net. In the end, it is the ordinary bounty hunters who suffer as a result of this in the form of low payments.

LOL... people like you will never understand why people take their chances in gambling. See... when I purchase a lottery ticket worth $1, it gives me a chance to win a jackpot of 25,000,000. I admit that the chance may be like one in a billion, but still it is there. Now let's heed to your advice and purchase some stock like AAPL or GOOGL. Can they give me 25 million times return? No.

Dogecoin started off as a ripoff of Bitcoin and its developer(Billy Markus) have stated multiple times that he is not serious about the coin. The positives is that it is having a large and loyal community of users, and the price per coin is low enough to be used in gambling. But if you ask me, I always prefer BCH or LTC ahead of Dogecoin.

Pacquiao vs Broner collected $30 million in PPV and around $6 million in gate collections. I am sure that the figures will be higher for Pacquiao vs Thurman. But I am pessimistic about the 1 million PPV claim. This fight is not that big to net a 1 million PPV. It is something that only Floyd Mayweather or Canelo Alvarez will be able to do.

I am not a big fan of Dogecoin, and believe that it is having very low acceptability. Also, it is not very stable or mature, to be used for gambling purposes. Security is another issue with Doge. I would rather go for coins such as Bitcoin Cash or Tether (USDT). Ethereum is also a good choice, but it has some security issues. So storing them can be a hassle for the gambling sites.

Yesterday Thurman made a statement on the PPV subscription. He was saying that 1 million PPV buys may be possible, which will bring somewhere around $75 million to $80 million in revenue. I am not sure about it. Pacquiao vs Adrien Broner reported only 400,000 PPV sales. I expect the figure to remain somewhere around that.

I stopped investing in ICOs long time back. It is not worth to take the risk. I may revisit my decision only if the market shows a remarkable rebound. But the chances are low, and investors continue to lose money in fake projects. And another thing is that nowadays almost all the projects are overpriced. It is surprising to see shitty projects asking for a hard cap of $200 million.

The most common mistake that many of the newer members make is that they hold their coins for too long. You can hold coins such as BTC, BCH and ETH for long durations. But this is not viable for the smaller altcoins, as there is a real chance that they'll lose their value within 1-2 years. So those who hold them infinitely will lose out in the end.
