Dame is getting lit up on social media today after claiming he wouldn’t do what KD did while he’s literally trying to do the exact same thing KD did. I’m surprised we haven’t heard a response from Kevin Durant yet, but maybe he’s just sitting back and enjoying NBA Twitter (x) roasting a different player for dumb comments for a change.

What? Are you serious right now?

You can't compare Dame to KD, not even close.
KD went from a contender and western finals participant to the best team in the league. He had a team around him that had a future and still chose to go to the team with the best record in history.

Dame on the other hand didn't reach the playoffs back to back, has no contending team and Portland also has no idea what they want to do. Of course he wants out after sticking with this shit show for 11 years.

From somebody who often comments here I wouldn't have expected such a nonsense, seriously.  Roll Eyes

KD joined a team that lost in the Finals the year before. Dame wants to join a team that lost in the Finals a year before. It isn’t a nonsense comment, it’s a fact. Dame really shouldn’t have anything negative to say about KD. Especially since Kevin Durant accomplished more in OKC than Dame ever did in Portland.

I still have some of these silver binary rounds available for purchase. Contact me for a discount if you’re interested in purchasing 20+. A bit surprised these babies haven’t sold out yet. I don’t have any plans to mint any more currently so once they’re gone they’re gone. Happy coining!
2063  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will reach all-time-high before halving. - BitQuant on: September 20, 2023, 12:16:52 AM
I would disagree respectfully. I don’t see a new all time high being broken before the halving and possibly not even in 2024. Sure, a lot depends on if mtgox is ever going to distribute their BTC and if a spot ETF is approved, but I’d point to the past as a guide for the future. If we see a new all time high before the halving, that would signal to me that the ultimate peak for this cycle could be over half a million dollars.

I’ve never really paid any attention to Bitcoin’s dominance in relation to the price cycle so I’m not sure if this is relevant or not with regards to foretelling price movements. It does feel a little bit like people are waking up to shitcoins and becoming Bitcoiners more this cycle than the previous thought. At least from my perspective.
2066  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Paxos recovers its $500,000 'fat finger' Bitcoin transaction fee on: September 19, 2023, 08:31:43 PM
I’m always amazed when these giant accidental transaction fees get returned by the miners that receive them. I’m not sure if I would be able to return half a million dollars from a block I fairly mined, but I’d like to think I would. Kudos regardless to all of the mining pools that do return these fees. It shows that they aren’t all about money.
2067  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: NFL Sportsbet.io discussion & predications thread rev on: September 19, 2023, 08:28:10 PM
I came across this article today and felt the need to share it.

https://www.barstoolsports.com/blog/3484951/a-buffalo-bills-fan-was-found-naked-in-a-hole-covered-in-human-excrement-near-bills-stadium-during-their-home-opener-sunday

It was titled: A Buffalo Bills Fan Was "Found Naked, In A Hole, Covered In Human Excrement" Near Bills Stadium During Their Home Opener Sunday

I initially thought it was going to be a crazy story about rival fans, but it was actually far more entertaining.

What do you think about this video of Gilbert Arena clowning on Hakeem Olajuwon for charging $50,000 for a training session?

https://x.com/thedunkcentral/status/1704169319171535226

I was a bit surprised because usually NBA players have nothing but good things to say about Hakeem and he’s the guy everyone brings in to teach their up and coming big men. I honestly thought he charged a lot more.
2069  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Not banned, yet not accepted on: September 19, 2023, 04:06:17 PM
You make a good point and surely the Bitcoin community would be better off if there were more vendors that accepted BTC as payment for goods (I do). I believe this is one of the reasons Bitcoin was pivoted to being a store of value instead of p2p currency. It’s unfortunately more beneficial to hold than spend, but without banks to convert to cash it would be somewhat useless for that purpose. Hence, digital gold is much less decentralized than a p2p currency.
2070  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: September 19, 2023, 04:03:52 PM
Feels like the worst of this market correction is behind us and the price of Bitcoin is once again creeping up. I wouldn’t want to be leveraged short or long right now, as either is likely to get you liquidated, but I sure wouldn’t want to be on the sidelines either. The rocket ship is letting passengers board. The liftoff to the moon will begin soon.
2071  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When the fun stops on: September 19, 2023, 04:01:50 PM
I think OP makes a good point that if you are gambling just for money, you are going to be regularly disappointed. Casinos are basically arcades for adults. Imagine being a kid and getting angry that you have less money than you had when you entered an arcade. It’s got to be about fun or else you’re statistically almost certain to have a bad time.
2072  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Gambling affect your relationship? on: September 19, 2023, 03:59:44 PM
Obviously we’ve all heard stories of someone spending their family’s life savings on gambling over and over again until their family leaves them. I’ve even seen this first hand with one of my personal friends growing up. It’s a weird problem to have a family member constantly losing their money gambling, but it’s a common one. Some people just shouldn’t gamble.
2073  Economy / Gambling / Re: Casinos not asking for KYC to register and play, but do require it to withdraw on: September 19, 2023, 03:57:45 PM
On one hand this is perfectly legal and people gambling should be prepared to follow KYC rules. On the other hand this is an obviously shady tactic used by casinos to get your money and not have to give it back. I could understand not letting you withdraw winnings, but to let you deposit and not withdraw your own funds is as shady as it gets.
2074  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: September 19, 2023, 03:55:33 PM
It’s a bummer that HBO cancelled Game Time, which was arguably the best show on TV. Many NBA players are asking that Netflix or another service buy the show and keep it going. I hope that happens. It is probably the best basketball show ever made. You can sign a petition below to try and bring it back on air.

2076  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Regis Prograis vs Devin Haney on: September 18, 2023, 04:47:55 PM
I have no idea what the outcome of this fight will be and to be completely honest I don’t even know who Regis Prograis is, but I have heard Devin Haney in the news for Bradley Martin (a podcaster) saying he could kick Devin’s ass in a street fight. Whatever happens with this fight, I hope it leads to a match between Bradley & Devin.
2077  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Trade Deficits on: September 18, 2023, 07:43:51 AM
I think there already are plenty of goods you can buy only using Bitcoin, they just aren’t mainstream enough to make a big impact. If governments do start using crypto I don’t think we need to worry about the “trade deficit” as you put it. Clearly there will be plenty more demand than supply if adoption continues, and Bitcoin was designed that way.
2078  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casino features you like and Don't like but you don't mind on: September 18, 2023, 07:40:56 AM
A couple of features I like when it comes to online casinos are live betting and player bets. Being able to bet on individual player stats instead of just the outcome of the game can make it more fun to watch the game. Live betting can enable you to bet both sides throughout the game as odds change to put you in a win no matter what position.
2079  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you manage your money on gambling sites. on: September 18, 2023, 07:37:39 AM
I think the reason people leave funds on an internet gambling site would be mostly convenience. Maybe a secondary concern goes to saving money on withdrawal and transaction fees. If you know that you’re going to be gambling again in the future I don’t see a problem leaving some funds on a site, but I wouldn’t use it as a savings account or wallet.
2080  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Navigating the World of Online Gambling on: September 18, 2023, 07:33:10 AM
Good tips. I agree with what you’ve said. Maybe with an emphasis on checking a casino’s reputation. When it comes to crypto entities on the internet, trust and reputation is everything. The best incentives in the world won’t mean anything if the casino offering them turns out to be operated by a scammer. Always think safety first.
