Also, the promoters should rent Las Vegas Raiders' Allegiant stadium, have a big screen and let everyone pay $100 per person to watch the fight hehehe. Well, that's a first if that indeed happens but they should swap the venue though because Allegiant Stadium can hold more people compared to T-Mobile Arena. That's quite too much for him to say especially that he ain't got the WBA world title belt, or any of those existing belts that is now possessed by the undisputed champion, Devin Haney. And he's saying and comparing himself towards Canelo Alvarez?  Boy, I know you got talents but you still have a long way to go and that's for sure. However, similar to what I have said, it can be argued that he might become the face of boxing if he wins this fight. The same argument can be created for Ryan Garcia. I also reckon that it would leave a bigger impression on the fans if Ryan Garcia is the winner. The occurrence might be compared to Muhamad Ali versus Sonny Liston where Ali was the underdog hehehe. Either can be the face of boxing, because as far as drawing fans to their fights, it's easy for them, they have the charisma specially Ryan Garcia. For Tank Davis his trash talk and the way he demolished his opponents with highlight knockout. Not sure if we can compare it to the great Muhammad Ali, they don't have any belts, either one of them, it's that they are the main draw in this division and not the champion in Haney. I was only trying to make a argument of the type of storyline the sports news media might create if Ryan Garcia wins the fight. If he knocks out Tank with an unseen left hook it would certainly be written in the news as something similar to Muhammad Ali's phantom punch used against Sonny Liston hehehehe. Ryan has the charisma and he appears to be well educated. Tank appears to be someone who is from the streets when you listen to him. Fair enough, yeah it could be big as the Ali upset on Liston that time, and it seems that's where Ali has started his trash talking though and from what I read it was like over before the actual fight because they say that Liston is really affected on what is Ali is saying on the public against him. I mean the psyche war is already won by Ali already. Not just that he look very educated + charisma. It maybe stem from him always praising God first during his win or when he is interviewed. It seems that the kid is God fearing and that's where he got his strength. I am quite certain that Ryan is God fearing because he is from Mexico hehehe. This is offtopic but I reckon all of the colonies of Spain were controlled through the use of religion. They wanted to create a fear. I am quite aware this is a very skeptical argument, however, this is in history. Much of the people in the Spanish colonies were only used for their natural resources and left the colonies and the people poor. |

I very much agree with the reason why this thread was created because if I am forced to choose a side between the government regulators and Binance, I will choose Binance.
I reckon everyone should begin to recognize that the coordinated attacks on Binance, Coinbase, Chipmixer, Tornado Cash and other services is really an attack on the whole cryptospace. This is not only about Binance or Chipmixer anymore.

@Z-tight. What they certainly cannot do is stop bitcoin, however, they can harrass bitcoin developers, users, miners and companies. This will be very much like what they did to Tornado Cash's developer, what they did to Chipmixer, other bitcoin privacy services and bitcoin payment processors. Everyone should read the news and witness that it is happening already. They are beginning to raise taxes on miners, cracking down in exchanges, investigating banks that accept deposits from exchanges and seizing privacy proving websites. Also, G7 nations will begin cooperating to create strict laws for the cryptospace. We should be more cautious when we wish for the success of a government crackdown. Much of these crackdowns are done only under a fake act of protecting small investors. It is really done to protect the interests of the rulers of the country. Cryptocurrency regulation is one of the biggest agendas for the major economic countries. The seven largest democracies may advocate for stricter cryptocurrency laws globally at the upcoming G7 summit. The countries in question include Japan, the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, France, Germany, and the European Union.Source https://watcher.guru/news/g7-nations-to-work-towards-strict-global-cryptocurrency-laws |

is anyone wishing this guy actually ending up paying all his money to SEC?
he keeps trying to grab attention and even attempts to buy a bank using a Twitter post. well, he must have manipulated the market with the billions of TRX he has. he must be guilty but then again part of me still wishes him to win the case.
He has diplomatic immunity because he is presently the Ambassador for the country of Grenada to the World Trade Organization hehehe. They call him His Excellency Justin Sun.There are also some speculations that he is really protected by the Chinese government. Changpeng Zhao of Binance is also speculated to have some backers from influential people from China. |

@Hueristic. Jimmy G does not want to work or pay for it anymore heheeh. He wants to do it easily, only go to the place and lay down on the bed. In any case, it appears that Lamar has requested a trade. What team has the money and the space in their salary cap to accept Lamar? I want him to join the 49ers or the Raiders, however, the Raiders has traded for Jimmy G already and the 49ers appear to be supporting Trey Lance. What team can trade for him? I am following Lamar trade updates because I want to draft him again as my qb1 hehehe. As of March 2nd,” Jackson tweeted, “I requested a trade from the Ravens organization for which the Ravens has (sic) not been interested in meeting my value.”
His March 2 request thus landed five days before the team’s deadline to place a tag on him and five days before the rush of teams insisting “we’re not going for him.”
It was after Jackson’s apparent trade request that the Ravens eschewed the exclusive tag that NFL bylaws define as “not free to sign with another club” in favor of the tag for which a “player shall be permitted to negotiate a player contract with any club, except that draft-choice compensation of two first-round draft selections shall be made in the event he signs with a new club.”Source https://sports.yahoo.com/why-lamar-jacksons-trade-request-tweet-may-tell-us-more-about-the-last-month-than-the-next-220007845.html |

There was good news that Michael Saylor bought 6455 bitcoin, however, the market has taken this as a signal to begin dumping. This is a very head shaking behavior hehehhehe. On March 27, 2023, MicroStrategy announced that, during the period between February 16, 2023 and March 23, 2023, MicroStrategy, together with its subsidiaries, acquired approximately 6,455 bitcoins for approximately $150.0 million in cash, at an average price of approximately $23,238 per bitcoin, inclusive of fees and expenses. As of March 23, 2023, MicroStrategy, together with its subsidiaries, held an aggregate of approximately 138,955 bitcoins, which were acquired at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $4.14 billion and an average purchase price of approximately $29,817 per bitcoin, inclusive of fees and expenses.Source https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1050446/000119312523079839/d467124d8k.htm |

@mv1986. Another argument on why the American government has made a wrong assessment and the wrong action on cracking down the cryptospace is because of the stablecoin argument. Much of the stablecoins in existence are American dollars and stablecoins can become as a mechanism for worldwide distribution for American dollars for people to use American dollars. If they take this down, it will give away an opportunity to the Chinese Yuan to widen their distribution mechanisms for their own currency.

It appears that the government under the control of the Biden administration is really determined to break the the cryptospace and control what will be left from it after they have destroyed it. It also appears that this continuous investigations and and lawsuits against CZ and Binance will not stop. I reckon it was much better under the Trump administration. They only told everyone that they do not like the cryptospace but there was no action behind those words hehehe. In any case, Binance.us might bite the dust before the end of 2023. The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) sued crypto exchange Binance and founder Changpeng Zhao Monday on allegations the company knowingly offered unregistered crypto derivatives products in the U.S. against federal law.
The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois on Monday, alleged that Binance operated a derivatives trading operation in the U.S., offering trades for cryptocurrencies including bitcoin (BTC), ether (ETH), litecoin (LTC), tether (USDT) and Binance USD (BUSD), which the suit referred to as commodities. The suit also alleged that the company, under Zhao’s leadership, directed its employees to spoof their locations through the use of virtual private networks.Read in full https://www.coindesk.com/business/2023/03/27/binance-and-cz-sued-by-cftc-over-regulatory-violations/ |

I see no one is talking about Holm's fight. It is important to remind how she was the legend who destroy Ronda Rousey's career, and today she is the underdog, but she looks really old nowadays and that's because she is 41 years old, I'm thinking of betting on her opponent Yana Santos. But it will be a great fight, for sure we will enjoy it because from what I read, Holm sign a 6 fights contract with UFC trying to become champ again. So, see will give it all in this fight.
She was not the underdog hehe. The odds on her were very small and very risky to bet considering that she is presently 41 years old. However, she has shown that she fights similar to when she was only 35 years old hehe. Her knees are still strong and they did not yet lose the bounce in movement. In the sport of boxing, the weakening of the knees was very noticeable in Manny Pacquiao's career. |

@ o_e_l_e_o. Agreed, however, the SEC and other government agencies can also crackdown on developers of decentralized projects in the cryptospace similar to what they have one on the developer of Tornado Cash. They can also sanction bitcoin addresses and label anything containing them as illegal funds. This is very head shaking because there are some bitcoin maximalist who support this type of behavior because they think the cryptospace should be bitcoin only. We should not be like this, I reckon.

News update. Do Kwon's arrest was done 3 days ago in Montenegro and according to other sources, he had fake passports and other fake identification cards with him when he was boarding a private jet. It appears he was playing a role very much similar to Jason Bourne hehehe.  Do Kwon, the South Korean entrepreneur behind the $40bn collapse of the cryptocurrencies terraUSD and Luna, has been charged with fraud in the United States following his arrest in Montenegro.
US prosecutors on Thursday announced eight charges against Kwon, including securities fraud, wire fraud, commodities fraud and conspiracy.Source https://www.aljazeera.com/economy/2023/3/24/crypto-founder-do-kwon-indicted-after-montenegro-arrest |

@bisdak40. Agreed and it would be in a higher weight division where Casimero will not he overweight similar to what he has done in the bantamweight division.
In any case, what is the latest news? Is this fight only postponed or is there a chance of a cancellation? This might give a chance for Casimero to enter the show if he can challenge someone with a high rank in super bantamweight.

@o_e_l_e_o. I wish I can agree with your argument, however, if the community is taking a side with the SEC, this is a very dangerous circumstance, I reckon. You are taking a bitcoin maximalist's argument but we do not know where this stops or what this implies for all of the cryptospace including bitcoin. A victory for the SEC in this would certainly not make them stop from cracking down on bitcoin and every service, centralized or decentraized that uses bitcoin. We already witnessed what they did against Chipmixer.

SEC is on an anti-crypto rampage.
I'm more worried about the fact that the SEC just notified Coinbase that they basically consider Coinbase's entire operation illegal. They notified Coinbase that they are planning to come after them not just for their staking service, but their Coinbase Earn stuff, their Wallet service, and their exchange!! Like, that's the entire company! I can't imagine how SEC will make a case against the entire business but it is clear Gary Gensler and the SEC are on an anti-crypto rampage and they would like to take the entire industry down. We've got a lunatic running the SEC.
Hopefully the courts shut down the SEC's anti-crypto tirade and puts Gensler in his place. Cuz its insane that the SEC just wants to shut down the industry in America. We are definitely entering a period when the US government is starting to attack Bitcoin and Crypto. Hoping the courts and/or Congress push back on this sort of anti-crypto stuff before it gets bad. We need politicians and regulators who actually understand what Bitcoin is, and have more of a knowledge of it than just what they read in negative headlines.
Agreed. This coordinated campaign by the American government, regulators and politicians against the cryptospace will be considered as one of the biggest errors in the history of financial technology. The adoption of the whole cryptospace cannot be stopped by Gensler and the developments created in America will clearly go to other countries. But what is the exact situation in the USA if for that matter Biden's administration goes hard on crypto and passes some laws. Is there still a certain federal freedom from state to state to actually bring that law into effect or could some rather pro crypto states first sue and go to the highest court before complying with what Biden says? Or do they have the freedom in every state to be more welcoming to crypto in general? That is the problem I see with the EU except for Switzerland. If the EU pushes for regulation, it is a lot of states that have to comply and the EU has the possibility to sanction states that don't comply. I guess crypto isn't worth defending in exchange for being sanctioned (yet). I am not quite certain about the exact situation, however, it appears that the SEC is creating an environment that is very much discouraging for the cryptospace. Also, while this comedy show in America begins there are other jurisdictions like El Salvador that are making the correct assessment and they are creating an encouraging environment. El Salvador President To Eliminate All Taxes on Technology Innovations
In a recent tweet, Bukele notes that all taxes, including income, property, and capital gains, as well as import tariffs, will be eliminated. Additionally, this hasn’t come to fruition yet. The President said that he will be sending a bill to Congress next week.
Furthermore, the President notes that “technology innovations” will include AI development, coding, and apps, among others. Elaborating on the same, Bukele tweeted,
"Next week, I’ll be sending a bill to Congress to eliminate all taxes (income, property, capital gains, and import tariffs) on technology innovations, such as software programming, coding, apps, and AI development, as well as computing and communications hardware manufacturing.”Source https://watcher.guru/news/el-salvador-president-to-eliminate-all-taxes-on-technology-innovations |

@Rikafip. CZ tweeted the wallet where the $1 billion was being held on the day of the announcement. In any case, everyone has already heard about the wells notice that Coinbase received from the SEC? I shared it in @Oshosondy's thread. This article mentions and speculates that Binance and stablecoin issuers might be next. I speculate it might also include Defi and other projects that issued tokens. Coinbase’s pending legal showdown with the US markets regulator has the crypto industry wondering who’s next.
Coinbase, a target for the Securities and Exchange Commission since Gary Gensler took over as chair, this week received a Well’s Notice — a formal declaration of the SEC’s intent to bring a lawsuit.
The key question now: What next?
“Oh, a stablecoin case,” Moustakis said. “I don’t mean a stablecoin used in connection with fraud. I mean an enforcement action brought against a stablecoin issuer for the issuance of an unregistered security.”
John Reed Stark, former director of the SEC’s office of internet enforcement, said that while the SEC has hinted that stablecoins may be next in the SEC’s crosshairs, he has another theory: “Binance, or maybe Tether.”
“Binance’s operations have been so void of transparency and sunlight that there’s a need for criminal prosecutorial and civil regulatory intervention,” Stark said.Source https://www.dlnews.com/articles/regulation/stablecoins-and-binance-next-in-sec-crosshairs-after-coinbase-warning/ |

In any case, other trades are Jimmy Garopollo was traded to the Las Vegas Raiders, this might be a good improvement from Derek Carr.
Might be. On the other hand, he may be a bit distracted.  The QB has reportedly received lifetime membership from a popular Vegas strip joint and he’s now been presented with free sex for the rest of his life, with a pair of brothel workers making him an offer he might not be able to refuse.
Caitlin Bell and Alice Little, who ply their trade at Vegas’ famous Chicken Ranch brothel, have told TMZ they’re excited to have Jimmy G in town and want to give him free sex for life. Technically the brothels aren't allowed to operate in Vegas as prostitution is "illegal" within the city limits (lol). Not that I would know about such things. Another quarterback trade is Baker Mayfield to the Buccaneers, from the goat to Mayfield hehhehee.
Damn, I wonder why the Rams didn't want to try harder to keep him. Jeez. Gonna be really hard to root for them next season, they are a shell of the team they were just two years ago. The offer of the life time membership from the strip joint might have also made the decision to join the Raiders much easier for Jimmy G. It might have closed the negotiations hhehehe. Massage Watson is angry at his agent for hiding the Las Vegas offer from him. |

With John Ryder, it will give Canelo a boost of confidence after it. This fight is not even hyped or probably because they don't want to ruin Tank Davis's moment.
It would be very head scratching to speculate that Canelo vs. Ryder fight can ruin Tank vs. King Ry's main event. No one wants to pay to see Canelo fight Ryder. There is no hype behind this and who is this John Ryder? Yes, Canelo is guaranteed another 8 figures here, so he doesn't care perhaps, hehehe. And most likely his target will be the Mexicans obviously in his native country. Probably in the US too, but for fans, Tank vs Ryan Garcia is an easy choice if I were to buy PPV between this two fights. I reckon what the fans would like to see for Canelo is fight Benavidez! However, it appears Canelo is avoiding him hehehe. Canelo wants a rematch vs. Bivol but Bivol is avoiding Canelo because he wants a unification in light heavyweight.
Maybe if David can win against Plant this weekend, his name will pop up. But definitely Canelo is looking for Bivol next after this, whether 175 or even 168 lbs as Canelo is willing to put his belt on the line. So lot's of fight in the calendar that can affect Canelo after he win against John Ryder. Agreed on Canelo does not care hehe. I was only telling @cabron that Canelo vs. Ryder will certainly not ruin Tank vs. King Ry because much of the fans will be on Tank vs King Ry. Similar to what you said, if the both of them were on the same day, which ticket or pay per view would you buy? I speculate Canelo will not consider Benavidez because of the risk that he might lose to him. It might be better to risk losing to Bivol in light heavyweight because he will not lose all of his super middleweight championships hehehe. He can lose them against Benavidez. |

Also, the promoters should rent Las Vegas Raiders' Allegiant stadium, have a big screen and let everyone pay $100 per person to watch the fight hehehe. Well, that's a first if that indeed happens but they should swap the venue though because Allegiant Stadium can hold more people compared to T-Mobile Arena.
