^ That's the thing about sentiment. When the price started going up from 60k to 64k, everybody started getting hopeful again and have started thinking that 70k or higher is a possibility... But watch when it goes back to 60k again. Everybody will start saying 50k as a possibility again.  Anyway, locking the poll in a couple of days so get your votes in guys. Really interested in how everybody feels about the market rn. |

^ Yup... If anything, buy more HYPE if the price goes down. I'm a buyer at 50+ USD and am def a buyer if it goes lower than that. And I can't stress enough that you should stake your HYPE. Don't use it as collateral in HyperEVM or at HyperCore via portfolio margin.
At current price ranges, it's not worth it to use as collateral yet... Wait for it to go over 500 USD per HYPE then it'll be valuable enough as collateral for sure.

^ If Verstappen can't get in Mercedes or if Toto Wolff has cooled his interest on Verstappen then it will prolly be a waste of time for him to be in McLaren. Under the new specs, there's only one team that's gonna dominate and that's Mercedes. It would be better for Verstappen to move to Ferrari if the team will take him in...
If McLaren can't get as good as last season then yeah. A really challenging adventure is waiting for Max there also!  This season isn't going wonderful for them in the end. I can't say they are way above Red Bull in constructor standings. I was also waiting for Mercedes to make a move after Russell's failing in so many races. But Toto spoke like they were happy with keeping Russell anyway. So instead of a Verstappen - Antonelli pairing which would be exciting in and of itself, we'll see a better one... A Verstappen - Hamilton pairing and with Christian Horner at the helm as team principal. Please F1 gods, make it happen. Lmao. By the way I have read that Horner is returning to F1 soon. But we don't know which team it will be... Yeah, words have been swirling around that Horner will buy a minority stake in Alpine and be the team principal over there. Another rumor is he's been talking with Lawrence Stroll and Adrian Newey to join Aston Martin and build the team into a title winning one. While another rumor says that the Chinese carmaker BYD is interested in joining F1 and hire Horner to build the team from the ground up... ^ If Verstappen can't get in Mercedes or if Toto Wolff has cooled his interest on Verstappen then it will prolly be a waste of time for him to be in McLaren.

Lol, that's probably not going to happen But whatever it is, I think Max will just go to a team that can give him a better opportunity. I don't know what Zack is offering him, but at this point, Max just isn't a good fit for McLaren. I agree that he's wasting his time there. The Mercs are still his best option for getting another WC. But Red Bull's offer is still attractive, he would become CEO of Racing Bull. I don't think Max would pass that up  Yeah, nope... Def a long shot. Lol. Would be so funny tho seeing Verstappen paired with Hamilton and with Horner at the helm at Ferrari. |

^ Nice to see some guys in here see the potential of HYPE being the trade of the year and possibly the next couple of years...  I've been seeing some guys with huge following tweeting that they've started to buy spot ETH and looks like they're saying that it's gonna outperform BTC. Lolol. Oh man.. They don't realize that HYPE under 100 bucks is very cheap and ETH at the current price range is still expensive. Don't make the mistake of selling your HYPE if you're already in. If anything, stake it and give yourself a chance to get in the next airdrop. |

From what I've seen, Egypt was playing well against Argentina until the final minutes of the match when it looked like Egypt allowed those goals to come on from the opposing side. Dunno tho... But I'm not saying the game was rigged or anything like that. Just a very unlikely scenario.
Not gonna bet against Argentina tho. The only bet I made thus far is on Norway. I might make another bet on Belgium. Those two teams are prolly the two most live underdogs in the quarter finals.
Egypt got distracted, maybe the coach thought it was already over and started making some unnecessary subs, conceded the first goal and lost their head and shape. I blame coaches in situations like that because how do you stay composed for 78mins but could not do it for the final 12 mins to defend a 2-0 lead? With this Argentina side it's never over until the final whistle - they're tactically disciplined, other teams would have lost their heads after the Egypt second goal but they didn't. The Egypt coach is a bitter loser, whenever he loses a game he blames the refs. Wouldn't be so surprised if it was rigged. The FIFA brass are a bunch of corrupt mother fkrs... But all in all, it's better to have Argentina in the quarter finals than seeing Egypt in it. Lolol. So yeah, I made my bets. One for Norway and another one for Belgium. Both bets made in Hyperliquid's outcome market. If ever they give another big fat airdrop some time this year or in a couple of years, remember guys.. I told you so. |

The face off between McGregor and Holloway was about exactly what you would expect. McGregor trying to intimidate, slapping Holloway’s hands and throwing the glasses off his face. I don’t know if it will be a good fight or not, but they sold me on watching it.
The face off from the pre fight press conference..? I'm gonna watch that one right now after this post but I'm feeling like all the McGregor aura and vibe is gone now. We all already know it's just a bit for publicity's sake and to sell the fight... It worked before but I don't think it's working now imho. People are laughing at it now. I think McGregor's bit ended with the one he did in build up in the match up with Khabib... He took it one notch higher and anything he does now isn't so compelling anymore.

^ I think you got the matches mixed up. We're done with the Ro16 and it's the quarter finals next. The final round of 16 match between Switzerland and Colombia ended with the Swiss winning 4-3 on penalties. Here are the quarter-final fixtures: Thursday 9th July France vs Morocco Friday 10th July Spain vs BelgiumSaturday 11th July Norway vs England Sunday 12th July Argentina vs SwitzerlandSpain will have a difficult match because Belgium have started playing very well. Also, after what we witnessed when Argentina played Cape Verde and then Egypt, will be really be surprised if Switzerland beat Argentina? From what I've seen, Egypt was playing well against Argentina until the final minutes of the match when it looked like Egypt allowed those goals to come on from the opposing side. Dunno tho...

^ Whoa... Is that your bet on McGregor? 268 ETH?? Wow, didn't know there are rich degens here at BCT. I thought we're just mostly brokies here gambling with sig money. Anyway, good luck to your bet. Pretty sure that everybody is rooting for you just because of the size of your bet. Just curious, what other picks do you have for 329? |

These are the teams that will participate in the 2026/27 Premier League:  Just noticed your poll and I'm the only voter. Lol. Let's get more guys in here and away from the spammy EPL threads. Anyway, voted for Liverpool. Not really sure why but just looking at the clubs in the list, I think whole most guys are looking at City or Alonso at Chelsea, Liverpool will surprise everybody next season. It's gonna be as if Klopp is managing the club, but maybe better. High octane football in Liverpool next season folks. |

These are the matches:
France vs Morocco
Spain vs Belgium
Norway vs England
Argentina vs Switzerland
Tbqh I think these underdogs could win at any given time. But the underdog with the most chance of winning could be Norway imho. Already made a small bet at Hyperliquid's outcome market.

Garbrandt ? Not the bets choice for underdog bet As Cody is famous for his low fighting IQ. I think 3 KOes in a row has left a real crack in his jaw. He is now in 3 lose streak. He won last fight only due to 2 point reduction form his opponent, otherwise it would be a loss. When Royval has 2 losses against champ and #2 rank guy. Royval looks better than Garbrandt as underdog for me. Between their opponents, both are trashy lol, but Yañez seems better and more experience. That is a red flag (or orange lol) for choosing Garbrandt as underdog bet. Yeah but for the line the bookies gave Garbrandt, I'm willing to take it since it's just a small bet and such a long shot degen parlay. Anyway we got a huge line for picking Royval and Garbrandt as underdogs... 1569.72. So that means 10 bucks win 15,569 USD! Chedda cheeese. Here are the picks. Holloway BSD Sandhagen Royval McKinney Whittaker Garbrandt Riley Cong Pinas Gandra Costa |

 I still believe we will end up at 40k - 50k range. Saylor is just starting to offload his bitcoin. He basically shift the paradigm from buying to sell. The bad thing he sells his stash at huge lose. So i think it can be the reason to drive sentiment to go down even furher. I also have my limit order in that range.  Oof wat?? How much more BTC is he gonna sell? Lol... But strangely enough, the market took it well and didn't drop below 60k or something. Maybe it won't be as bad as some people are thinking. I think some shenanigan like Terra Luna and FTX will be the only catalyst that could make BTC drop lower than it recently did. Will it be Strategy..? From what I'm seeing, I don't think so. |

^ Yup.. T'was pretty good. I'm kinda finding myself rooting for Norway now. Them vs Norway will def by a test. I wonder what the odds are gonna be. But I could imagine Norway being the slight underdog here. Anyway, the US lost against Belgium. It was almost a trashing with the scoreline ending with 4 - 1. So I guess we'll be seeing a better match up in the Ro16 with Spain vs Belgium. |

^ If it's total domination by Holloway, then I don't think there's gonna be any robbery of some kind. But if McGregor makes it close enough and even if it looks like the fight went Holloway's way, yeah... I wouldn't really be surprised to see a controversial decision... Which then again would work in the UFC's favor and for both Holloway and McGregor. They're gonna run it back and you know what that means... More cheddar cheeeeeese. Anyway, still trying to figure out the degen parlay... What do you guys think of Royval and Garbrandt as underdogs? |

Oh, 13 votes for "some hope to pump". I am one of them.
I really believe that 60k should be the bottom for this year, and the pump should happen really soon. It's cheaper now, and I think it will be inviting to new investors to make Bitcoin their choice. I would if I had the money, but there's a bad economy in our country right now, so investing is not really an option for now.
Still, with this kind of price, it could be interesting for others who have the money, and probably a good entry point for those who sold their Bitcoins back when they were at a high price.
Yup and that's just from the guys that voted. What it really means could be there are a lot more guys here who are still holding BTC and hoping for a pump. Nothing wrong with it imho. That just how markets are. Some guys got lucky and sold at the top, some guys have sold after the top happened and there are some people who continue to hold no matter what. The thing I find funny is, there people who see to get mad if other people sell their coins. Lol. I mean who are the couple of guys who voted that they have sold? You better hide from the 13 guys who are waiting for a pump. |
