https://www.theblockcrypto.com/tiny/kraken-makes-2fa-obligatory-forms-kraken-security-labs/"Kraken’s Chief Security Officer Nick Percoco has announced changes to the cryptocurrency exchange’s security features. He promises there are more client-facing security enhancements on the way, all a part of a security features roadmap planned out into 2020. Most new features will require enabling by the client to add additional levels of security. This is the case with Two Factor Authentication. While the feature has been available since Kraken’s launch, it was previously optional. Now, Two Factor Authentication has been made a requirement by the exchange. There are now two options available to the clients—Google Authenticator and YubiKey. Percoco also announced the formation of Kraken Security Labs. Percoco writes, “The effort is committed to improving the security of the entire cryptocurrency ecosystem by performing vulnerability research against 3rd party products—like hardware wallets, software wallets, and other related technology—and disclosing identified issues in a way that does not jeopardize the security of the industry or our clients, but rather improve security for our clients and the world once the issues are fixed.”

After failing for its first IEO, Bittrex will try again on April 2nd : https://coinvize.com/altcoins/bittrex-after-failing-its-first-ieo-second-attempt-coming-on-april-2nd/"The project to be presented is VeriBlock, a block-chain startup working on the development of the proof-of-proof protocol, which is claimed to add an additional layer of security to existing block chains such as Bitcoin. However, Bittrex notes that its CEO Bill Shihara is an advisor to VeriBlock, while its company also holds a minority stake in affiliate sponsor VeriBlock. For these reasons, Bittrex will indirectly benefit from the successful completion of the IEO. ... Each VBK coin is offered for approximately $0.10 (subject to change), while users have limited their orders to a minimum of $10 turnover and a maximum of $20,000. Orders in excess of this amount would have to pass through the OTC counter of the Exchange and would be subject to the rules governing such transactions."

I've been vegetarian for 25 years now. I eat eggs and dairy, no fish no meat. No issues with my libido (almost 44yrs old) but again I know what I'm doing nutrition wise and consume lots of calories. Best thing to do if you're not sure about vitamin deficiencies, hormonal disorder or else is get regular bloodworks. Every food can be replaced. Plus the body has a wonderful process called homeostasis. The problem with (some) vegans or vegetarians is they have a tendancy to eat shitty foods (processed fake stuff) to replace the products they loved so much (hmmm fake cheese). Soy also suddenly becomes their favorite food which is a terrible idea (check soy and estrogen online, you'll see). Being vegetarian can actually increase your cardio vascular system (less red meat helps for sure) and better cardio means better libido . Plus more fruits and veggies=more vitamins... but again you gotta know at least a bit what you're doing.

Here we go again ? https://cointelegraph.com/news/crypto-exchange-coinbene-announces-ongoing-maintenance-while-customers-suspect-hack"Cryptocurrency exchange Coinbene, ranked 16th on CoinMarketCap by adjusted volume, has announced it is undergoing maintenance on Tuesday, March 26, as the crypto industry discusses rumors that the exchange has been hacked. The official Twitter account of Coinbene Global, @CoinBene, has responded to a user nicknamed Crypto James, who claims that his deposits have been pending for an hour and insists the exchange has suffered a hack, as the maintenance had not been previously announced. Coinbene’s reply to his tweet reads: “In order to enhance the user experience, CoinBene upgraded the platform wallet on March 26, 2019. During maintenance, it will affect related operations such as deposit and withdraw, trading will not be affected.” ... However, some insiders suggest that the maintenance announcement is a cover for a large hack that might involve up to $40 million stolen. "

Blaydes had an easy win against Willis, he totally controlled the rythm of the fight... a few takedowns, a couple of strikes were enough to win. Pettis ? Impressive k.o., I like him as a fighter. But again, I don't care much for the two punches that followed after Thompson was on the ground. Referees have to react faster. About Pettis, let's not forget he beat Chiesa recently and did very well against Ferguson too.

Economy / Exchanges / Another hack : Dragonex

Singapore-Based Crypto Exchange DragonEx Has Been Hacked https://www.coindesk.com/singapore-based-crypto-exchange-dragonex-has-been-hacked"Singapore-based exchange DragonEx says it has been hacked for an undisclosed amount in a number of cryptocurrencies. DragonEx announced the news on its official Telegram channel on Monday, stating that, on Sunday, March 24, it had suffered a cyberattack that saw cryptocurrency funds owned by users and the exchange “transferred and stolen.” No information has yet been provided on the value of the losses. On Sunday, apparently as the breach was first being discovered, DragonEx first took its platform offline saying it was upgrading its systems. Later the same day, it announced that it was “still working on system maintenance,” before finally disclosing that it had been hacked yesterday. “Part of the assets were retrieved back, and we will do our best to retrieve back the rest of stolen assets,” DragonEx said in Monday’s Telegram announcement." "In updates on the hack today, DragonEx’s Telegram admin provided wallet addresses for 20 cryptocurrencies to which the stolen funds had apparently been transferred. The list included the top five cryptos by market capitalization: bitcoin (BTC), ether (ETH), XRP, litecoin (LTC) and EOS, as well as the tether stablecoin (USDT) for which six destination addresses were provided. “We earnestly request help from all our fellow exchanges and other industry strength, please help us to investigate and traced the assets, freeze them and stop the assets flows,” the exchange said. The admin added that stolen crypto assets transferred by the hackers to the Huobi and gate.io exchanges have already been blocked."

Hey I said respectfully !
You can't be serious right ? I know about clauses thanks.
Do you really think there's anything PSG can do if Mbappe says he wants to go ? You can't be that naive. Do you think Barca wanted Neymar to leave ? Verratti is not a Barca player because he got a raise and all he cares about is money and his lifestyle (he's fine in Paris for that, trust me, every club owner knows him there). He'll be in Paris until he gets a better offer, he doesn't give a shit about titles. And the Dembele example actually proves I'm right lol.
First things first, Neymar left because there was a release clause in his contract with Barcelona which was triggered, If not, Barcelona would never have sold him. Lol! Verratti staying back at PSG was never due to a raise, He had stay back because PSG were never going to sell him then, He signed a new contract barely a year ago before the Barcelona transfer saga with him occurred. You need to read up, really. I don't see any point arguing further Yes there is ! Neymar's clause ? Well all Barca had to do was offer him a better contract. They did not. He wanted to go because he probably (I'm not his head) wanted to be THE Star of his team, because Paris fit his lifestyle and because his dad made lots of money out of this transfer. Verratti ? There is a transfer saga with him every year... and he's still here. He just doesn't wanna go. Truth is none of us knows shit about what goes on behind the curtains. All you can do is repeat what you read in papers. But it's just pure logic to understand that a superstar player like Mbappe is the master of his own destiny. You're right about one thing though... no need to argue about this (except it's funny to see you take all this so seriously and act so arrogant), we just have different views on how the system works.
