It's going to be a big gamble for Saylor if he invested on ETH, however, there could be a lot of what if, specially if this goes out in public, maybe ETH will be pump and then really made him some money, but after that, it will go back to where it used to be and maybe investors are going to accused him of manipulation.
So better stick to where he knows will be a good long term investment (just like the majority of us here, which is BTC).
It's a good supposition, but we can't tell the outcome though.

The year 2022 was little disappointing but it not going to collapse. It will now grow slowly, market is getting matured.
We always have that kind of scene in the past where bitcoin is about to collapse and suddenly it recovered and most of the time it also increases its price up to new ATH. Therefore, it's not important whether they like it or not because as long as there are people who use it as their currency to buy some things and others are accepting it as a payment, it won't be over for bitcoins. It will continue to progress and even be adopted by multiple big companies worldwide because of how many people are using it as their money. What do you expect in a bear market? of course it will always be disappointing, but the most important thing is that we all survived the selling pressures. As for the journey of bitcoin, it's not that easy, many question it on the beginning, Satoshi decided to go underground and not resurface anyone, but still though his invention has continued to flourished. And maybe in the next 14 years, it will be very valuable as during that time, Bitcoin is has been mine 99% already, almost everything has been mine which makes it more demanding. |

Ryan Garcia taking aim at Tank and says that he will finished him in 2 rounds, hehehe “Prediction for the fight – I say I'll beat him in about two rounds,” Garcia told The Joe Pomp Show.
https://www.boxingscene.com/ryan-garcia-predicts-hell-ko-tank-2-rounds-hes-never-faced-adversity-risk-ring--171581Ryan already hyping himself in this fight, saying that he will finished him in 2 rounds. I doubt though, Davis is known to be very cautious in the early rounds of his fight, just trying to figure out his opponents before making any adjustments. Specially if his opponent is someone of a knock out artist, just like in the Romero fight wherein he started very slow and trying not to get caught with big punch early. And we wanted the fight a bit longer, so that they will bring the best out of this two boxers. Big words for a young man that hasn't yet fought any tough opponents in his whole career and saying that he can finish a fight in mere 2 rounds against Tank Davis. Now, I know that he's just trying to hype himself and to market their future fight even though it's not yet fixed but those words are too far from reality because Davis is no ordinary boxer that he can defeat that easily. He may have the size but the IQ belongs to the title holder. I think that's already a given fact on Ryan, remember he even calls Davis "ugly" to be a champ in the Mike Tyson podcast. This is 2 years ago and he says the same thing, 2 rounds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oe35Bmq1A4IAnd he still has the same attitude mate, but the good thing is that they are going to face each other and let's see who is going to put to sleep on the canvass and how long this fight is going to last. |

The amount of people disrespect Errol Spence is crazy.
I follow boxing more than any other sport and I promise you the only person who has a chance at beating Spence is Bud Crawford. Thurman and Ennis will get DESTROYED 100%.
You guys underestimate Spence. He is a huge welterweight who has knockout power in both hands, ferocious body puncher and can fight on the inside.
The spence disrespect is out of control.
That's sports though, even the great athletes have their haters, so don't be surprised and annoyed, it's part of the game. True, the only fighter that has a chance against him is Bud Crawford, but that fight is not going to happen isn't it. So he needs to fight Thurman or Ennis, he needs to find a dance partner to show his greatness and proved that he is the top welter right now. However, the disrespect will continue though after he destroys both Thurman and Ennis, as the saying goes, haters gonna hate. |

Another Bitcoin halving is expected to come in 2024. As it has been in the last two Bitcoin halving, the bull run follows. As we anticipate another Bitcoin halving, when is the right to buy in and stock up Bitcoin in order not to be left behind in the next bull market?
As what they say, the best time to buy bitcoin is yesterday, the second best time? is today. So yeah, whey not start this year with a good plan on how to stock up and accumulate Bitcoin in preparation for the next bull run in 2024. Maybe you can do DCA or buy when you have the money. Of course it's not going to be very easy to accumulate as this is more of a mental test for everyone to buy and hold it for a long time. Or at least for the next 12-15 months before the actual halving. But we should start somewhere else if we wanted to take advantage of the market and get that x amount of profits in the future. And there are estimates and predictions that the price in the next bull run is in the conservative 6 digits. |

Things are taken care of, for now, this is a dilemma for promoters they want healthy boxers in mind and body in the ring, especially Gervonta who is a very special boxer, come January 7 we'll see how Gervonta deals with the trauma I expect Gervonta to fully dominate Hector Garcia but this is supposed to be a tune fight and the big fights are just coming and Gervonta's handlers and promoters should see to it that everything is smooth going in the big fight which is a Ryan Garcia fight, but for now he should dispose of this another Garcia.
After this work, his lawyers and handlers should tackle all the issues and obstructions for the Ryan Garcia fight.
With all the distractions going into this fight, i don't think Davis is 100 percent ready but i also think that even if a "50 percent boxing ready Davis" will still defeat Garcia but not in an impressive manner IMO. ML odds for now at my favarite bookies is Davis 1.05, Garcia 7.80, not attractive and not going to bet on that one. Will wait for the "Davis by decision" option as i think it will be 3.XX plus and that would be attractive odds AFAIC. Yeah, I just check the odds because I was curious, I know that Davis will be the favorite but it seems that sport bookies are not giving Hector Garcia a slim chance to win in this fight. Anyhow, we all know that there are distractions on Davis camp and the only way we know if he really is affected by all the negativity around him is if he is not focus on his upcoming. Yes, probably a full 12 rounds and then him winning by unanimous decision will be the best bet as per odds or at least the fight going into distance. |

Beterbiev is older anyways, so the strength and reflexes aren't the same as the previous years.
Yarde's camp needs to work on this one. If they can find the best strategy to take this little advantage against Beterbiev, then he might have to get an opportunity to take down his opponent. Definitely, if they can find some loophole on Beterviev then good, take that advantage, maybe the way he throw his punch or his defensive stance that they can counter and who knows, maybe he can pull an upset. Yarde needs to be in his best form during this fight if he wants to handle Beterbiev. Yarde needs to have stamina enough to last for a 12-round fight because I believe the strategy is to move and fight smart in order to avoid getting hit by Beterbiev. Beterbiev is now a little slower with less strength so I guess Yarde will try to outbox, and throw counters, and if cornered he needs to hold and use his strength to avoid a close-quarter fight. I am rooting for Beterbiev to win so I hope that he still has enough to survive a possible early lead from Yarde who's also a big puncher. Yarde will probably get tired of running in the late rounds and Beterbiev will go for the KO. Yes, he should bring his gas tank in this fight, because Beterviev is known to have not just the punching power, but also to carry the fight if it goes to distance. But if we look at Yarde's physical and body composition, he has a lot of muscle and this could affect him in the later round if he don't know how to preserve his energy. If he doesn't want to do it, then they will have to find a way for him to breath and have a deep lung. So it's either for Yarde to go for broke early because it will be very dis-advantageous for him, as the longer it gets, the more he will gets tired. So it's going to be very hard fight and what is the perfect strategy for him. |

Even boxing commentators are biased as well, hehehe, so I guess everyone in boxing might be corrupt, even the organization themselves, like the famed WBC by the Sulaiman. That's why boxers doesn't want the fight to end in judges hand because most of the time the decision will not be in their favor. I guess one classic example is Roy Jones losing the Olympic gold medal in this fight and says that he doesn't want to fight anymore. Fortunately for us he change his mind and become one of the legends of boxing. On the other hand, Park Si-hun was ruined after this fight. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QZY_0eXCROMHome advantage.  That is why judges and commentators should be from different countries if ever a fight will be between 2 countries. As long as they know what they are doing, it should be enough for making decisions. And yes, this is why a TKO or KO is what most boxers do now. If it will be in the judges' hands there's a chance they will lose it by a point or worst like what happened in biased fights in their home countries. Thankfully, most of the title holders now are KO specialists, Inoue is a good example of it as it's not easy for bantamweights to end a KO/TKO, 24-21-3. And the best example at light heavyweight, Artur Beterbiev, 18-18-0 Yes, we can probably call it home advantage, and as others said, not the first time and not only did it exists on boxing, it all other sports discipline as well. It's not in boxing, it is very evident of a home town decision. And it's very hard for someone to visit the home turf of an opponent and then win in the judges card, maybe we can count only a couple and recently, Casimero is a good example of it because after all John Riel is a KO artist as well. So we will want how the controversy will be settled and hopefully another fight will be good to justify whether it was biased scoring or Franco is really good that he should won the fight in the first place. |

All crypto money projects that do not have a decent income model but give high APY are scams. A project that pays more than 4-5% interest on dollar investments has to explain how it covers the difference between itself and real life. I don't think they'll be able to convince anyone other than the novice investors who have just entered the market. There are good examples in the past that will provide experience for new players in this market...
Yeah, or at least those who are offering too good to be true returns might be a scam after all. And with the worst bear market, this criminals will always want to find a way to make money still out of those who are suffering because of the bear market. And it's really hard to read between the lines until it's too late. So that best thing to do is to just stir away from any offerings. Just invest on solid coins like BTC and ETH or at least those win the top 10 coins and simply hold instead of risking your money on some projects and with these so called high APY terms. |

Just as the topic implies, What really are your thoughts on revenge gambling?
Revenge gambling can be seen as a situation where one chases after their loss after making huge loss which to me ends up a disaster.
One of the major reasons people chase after loss is
*using money they can't afford to loss to gamble
I guess gamblers are not going to learn from this mistakes. *Over expectations.
These two are the major reasons people indulge in revenge gambling and my questions are
~ What are your thoughts on revenge gambling?
~ what other reasons would make some indulge in revenge gambling?
~ What are the measures to help combat revenge gambling?
Please lets discuss
Really hard to answer though, I mean for the majority of gamblers, of of course, we don't want to lose to most of the time we wanted to play again and take a revenge gambling. So still 50/50, if you take it then win then good for you, but if you lose again, then it's a double whammy and if hard and very frustrated for gamblers. I guess to combat it is to man up and take your lose and play on other days, maybe next to take some days off first and when your mind is clear then maybe you will have to think whether to play again or not and not chase you losses. |

Most likely this will affect his reputation as a boxer, and even the upcoming fights that are in line with him. If not cancelled, since the audience are undeniably waiting for the match to happen, I guess Tank Davis will also face negative criticisms after the fight. But I don’t think his preparation for the match and his performance in the ring will also be affected as he will always be an outstanding boxer regardless of his current issues.
The case has been resolved and Gervonta Davis already free, but his reputation might ruined. It's better for him to quit social medias since he might get a lot criticism including when he's in outside and meet people who knew this case. Even he's professional and know to not taking it as a personal, but I believe it's still affect his mental even though just a tiny portion. He should fight with Garcia, otherwise his name might fall. I couldn't remove the idea that there is a coordinated attack on Davis. Things are just too coincidental. Family trouble will always affect personal life and maybe he would blame himself for what happened. After bailing an article came out from his accuser claiming he did not harm her nor his daughter. But both parties might just have an agreement, probably on money I guess which is usually the case. If there is a chance for Hector Vs Tank, it's not yet announced. https://www.badlefthook.com/2022/12/30/23532948/woman-who-accused-gervonta-davis-domestic-violence-now-claims-he-did-not-harm-her-boxing-news-2022Okay, so there's no problem anymore and the fight of Davis vs Garcia will happen next year. And yes mate, it could be just for the money, nowadays, most things will work in your favor if you have the money, that's the best way to silence people but some people will also try to trick you to get your money, just like in the case of Davis. Anyway, it's just his personal life, outside boxing but we should be happy with the development. Yep, there will be no delays at least for the Hector Garcia fight because that is the fight that we are concern initially. Because if that happen was delayed due to the court case allegedly, then obviously the Ryan Garcia fight will be postponed. But everything has been iron out so to speak, no harm has been done and about the claim? who knows, maybe there are entity behind who wanted to destroy Davis because they are jealous of his success and his money. |

Right now the event Lifetime Boxing Fights 12: Ioka vs. Franco has been settled and here is the result of the fight
Kazuto Ioka DRAW Joshua Franco
Pretty much the main event turns into a draw and right now I really don't know what happens because I don't want to waste money watching it and surely just going to wait for the replay on youtube, for this fight, well most Japanese were the winners and sad to say the two Filipino lost the fight Peter Apolinar lost to Hayato Tsutsumi with a unanimous decision, while Robin Langres defeated by Ryuto Owan with a unanimous decision aswell,
Joshua Franco vs. Kazuto Ioka resulted as majority draw with a scorecard of 115-113, 114-114, 114-114. Many viewers thought that the fight should be won by Franco by a small margin since the fight is too close. Obviously Japan is known to have a home decision advantage and is often biased on the result when it comes to the scorecard. So it is not a surprise that Franco did not win, but kinda surprising that it resulted in a draw . I do agree that it should be Franco, because of his incredible work rate in this fight and probably Ioka was surprised with the volume that Franco throws in this fight up to round 12. Most likely the best thing this corrupt judges can do is to make the fight a draw so that it will not looks like something is being home cook for Ioka. I do hope that the organizations will look at the score of the two judges and put sanctions on them, maybe not to score any fight because their scoring is absurd in this case. Sad to hear that Filipinos lost as well, I'm only familiar with the name of Peter Apolinar though, but he lost by a UD, which means he didn't really do good in this fight or it's that his Japanese foe is too good for him. |

Theoretically the way I look at it is that Nadal and Djokovic have pretty much developed their
game to the max whereas the younger generation and in particular Alcaraz are still developing.
Could be, we are already in 2022 era, so most likely this old guard will have to retire because they have max their potential already. To the point that when they tried, their body is no longer responding to them, the way we see on Federer and then it starts to deteriorate, wear and tear on this body caught up with the. But the good news is that we have a new set of players going to take over from them. I would like to think that Alcaraz in 2023 will be much better than 2022 and should pose more
of a threat to everyone including Djokovic.
I agree, by leaps and bounds, sure in 2022 he had a break out run, but Alcaraz would dominate next year just like Djokovic did when he was younger. So it's good to see the old and the young generations fighting it out in any of the Grand Slams for next year. That is something to really look forward to. The older generation and the next generation are playing at a better level than they did 10 years ago. The older players are losing their energy more slowly than the players 10 years ago. I always find it interesting to see how a new generation grows up and how the older players slowly understand that their time is over. We only have the last 2 standing, Federer has retired and it seems that Rafa might be the next one, his body is also not doing good specially in the surface that he specialized because it really put a lot of stress. So it might just be Djokovic against all new comers, he could be good for at least 2 years to battle and fought against the young generations lead by Alcaraz. So definitely next year will be an litmus test for them against Djokovic and to some extend Nadal if he can still play at clay. @kemarit I strongly believe that Nadal and Djokovic will both play at least for one more year, but in 2024 either one of them or both could possibly call it quits as their bodies are barely keeping up these days. Furthermore I’m keen to see who’ll be the long term champion, because so far I don’t see any consistency in the current set of player’s and which makes me wonder if the records set by these 3 will ever be broken?. Yes, I think it I'm going to bet on how will retire first, majority here will agree that it might be Rafael Nadal maybe in 2024. Nadal is older and so he is the most experience and obviously might be the most game played so his bodies are barely keeping him standing and playing grueling tennis next year. Hard to say, maybe the new current set of players are still intimidated when they are facing either Nadal or Djokovic that's why they are very inconsistent. Besides this is not only your talent in the court, it also takes a lot of mental and be strong psychologically to be on top day in day out and this is what lacks the current young generation in my opinion. |

Until now the price of bitcoin is still in the range of $ 16k, and it can be said that the price range of $ 16k-$ 17k has been going on for more than a month, of course this is a positive sign for us that the market will soon be rising again, I don't want to say that the market will rise in a short time, I prefer to recommend buying now and then holding for at least 2 years so that we can probably get at least 100% profit in 2 years.
Bitcoins are already in the price segment of 16k to 17k. So definitely Bitcoins won’t fall to 13k usd. I mean it’s completely a clear sign. Moreover Bitcoins are struggling in this price segment. So it just need one breakpoint to complete out of the resistance and move further. 2023 will be really big for Bitcoins, so yes right now we just have to buy as many Bitcoins as possible and hold it until the price goes up. Let’s hope new year will be really big for the Bitcoins. Probably it could be the worst scenario for this year if we reach $13,500, the good thing though is that we have reach a mental support of $20,000 before the FTX that's why it just fall to $15,500. But if by chance we are like in the $16,000'ish that time maybe we are in the territory of $13,500. So I guess everything happen for a reason, that FTX could have been really worst for us and who knows, maybe the selling pressure will be so big that it could be lower that the worst price that we could think of. |

Yes, same here, I mean when you play your initial thought will be just to have some fun, if ever you win then that is a plus already. But if not, and you lose your money, then you will be fine as well, no problems when you wake up and you can go with your normal lives the next day as if nothing has happen with the money that you loses. And it just shows that you have total control of your gambling activity as you have played money that you can afford to lose, you have your limits and you can go home happy and entertained, easy as that.
For few losses then you would tell to yourself that it is just fine but on the time that you had made out some consecutive losses then it would be impossible that you wont really be affected by that.I can attest to this since i do have experience that even if you do set up into your mind that it is really just for fun but on the time that you would be hitting up a barrage of losses then it cant really be avoided for you not to make out those common reactions which you would really be that frustrated and angered about those losses.If you are just that not good on controlling yourself the you might be ending up on betting more or making deposits which is really simply going out into your limits. If you are out of control of your gambling, then I must say that you play to look for profits and not to enjoy the game. Specially if you go out with friends and families in a land base casinos, it will surely be fun and entertaining specially if one of your families are winning, everyone will be happy to see that. But if your intentions is to win big, then it's a different story in my opinion. That's why we always says that we should only bring money that we can afford to lose, set the limit upon yourself and simply enjoy the night, win or lose, there will be no negative impact when you go home and you will be able to sleep tight. |

first of all are you really the founder of crypto venture capital?Just curious
and the end of year is already here, only 3 days left till touch new Year and bitcoin still can break 17-20K level i think this gonna be sideway we can see what happen in January if bitcoin remain above 18-20K i think this could sign of bullish again
Yes, there are no signs of any movement to push the price, so more likely this is it for us, $16,500 could be the average. I'm not seeing any positive movement at all around $18,000 and up, this could probably replicate the movement we have in 2019 so no movement at all in the first quarter. And I'm thinking that we should prepare again for maybe another lower lows, yeah I know that we want to see the price recovering so at least the biggest support of $20,000 but there could be some negative news again this year that will impact the manager in a bad way similar to Luna or FTX or maybe just plain FUD. |

Canelo will most likely take Plant if he wins. If Benavidez wins and Canelo can't see any weakness then he is likely to move up and take a rematch with Bivol. Although earlier, Canelo already mentioned that a Bivol rematch is his priority. Pretty gutsy but I like it rather than choosing soft oppositions.
I think whoever wins this fight would interest Canelo, that if they will agree to fight him. Another tuneup fight before getting into a rematch on a fighter that has defeated him, and I'm pretty sure that it will happen one day, I'm just not sure if canelo will be able to beat Bivol. Canelo will take whoever will win if the negotiations between two camps will materialize, it's a good tuneup like what you said before moving up again and chase a rematch from Bivol. We witness how he suffered from bivol, the guy have the speed and the capability to adjust each time Canelo try to box him and dominate. I like to see Canelo trying his best to beat Bivol, but that would be a big challenge to him. He should take the winner of this upcoming fight before moving back and face Bivol in the upper division. I'm thinking the opposite thing, Canelo is taking less priority whoever wins between Plant and Benavidez because Canelo has already set his eyes towards Bivol and make a comeback after that defeat that he experienced in the hands of a Russian boxer. And before that rematch, it has been said that Canelo will take a tune-up first because he just came back from a surgery. And I think Canelo is not yet due to a mandatory fight, that's why the winner of this bout will have to wait. Bivol will still be the main target of Canelo if ever he comes back, but I don't think he will take a tune up fight though, he might directly go to Bivol first after he is healed. There's no point in Canelo fighting a tune up because it will just delay his rematch. He is full of pride that he wants as soon as he beat GGG to go to Bivol right away. And so that winner of this fight will have to wait a bit longer though, but for sure Canelo will give them a chance specially if David Benavidez win the fight because he wants to shut his mouth as well because he is telling a lot in the public against Canelo. |

But we know that inside this sport, upset is always possible. We will expect an entertaining exchange of punches from these two gentlemen,
I'm assuming to see a good KO finished whoever wins. Both deserve to earn the praise for each fan who will support this fight.
Yes, as I have said, knockout will be the best bet for this fight. But has the same devastating power, it's just the matter on who will be the fastest to hit the home run punch. I would not call an upset if Ryan Garcia would win this fight. He might be an underdog but only a slight underdog, so it's not a big deal that we should be using as a basis that Tank Davis is way superior. What I believe to witness is that it will be a very entertaining fight, it's a very unpredictable fight we would not know who will win until there's a KO or judges will grade the fight. I guess it's the question on will the fight will extend to 12 rounds and have the judges score it, of course they could fight defensive, but both of them are offensive minded boxers, as others observed, this two could be the biggest punchers in the 135 lbs division. And they have been tested, Garcia already tasted the canvass and Davis has his anxious moments with Barrios, there were once instance wherein he was hit and I thought that he will go down in that fight. So they passed their big test. But this fight might be different, as both could be looking for a one punch knock out because both is capable and they hate each other, so it's going to be very personnel the way I see it. |

^^ 4 fights per year might be too much for Casimero or any boxer, he is not getting any younger, so he needs to be selective on how he is going to fight next in his new division.
And probably he is not rated because his fight with Akaho is not sanctioned by any boxing organizations, so he is not recognized with that win. So although the fight was turn from NC to KO in his record, it doesn't have any bearing. That's why we said that he need to climb back the hard way again, just like what he did when he become a champion in 118 lbs. He went to title eliminator, Ricardo Franco for the interim belt, defend it against Cesar Ramirez in the Philippines then beat Zolani Tete for the regular belt. So I think he can do it again in super bantamweight.
Don't expect something big will happen to Casimero right away, he is just testing this new division, choosing Akaho as a sort of welcoming fight for him. And yes, he won't get the same treatment as Inoue because Naoya is one of the cash cow and pound for pound. And so like we say, he needs to climb back the ladder, go back to zero, fight contender first because he will be recognized by any of those ABC bodies and put him on their rankings. If Casimero is looking for a contender like Luis Nery, it will be a long shot for him since Nery is the #1 contender by the WBC. And for all we know that belt is being held by Fulton in which Inoue is targeting when he officially moves up to this division. |
