Not going to be the last attempt from this scammers though.

We might see another site popping up targeting Syscoin, maybe it was the hype that's why they are also riding on the popularity of this projecdt.

Nevertheless its good to see that some of our members here are actively exposing this fake and phishing site and all we can contribute is to report them right away.
1142  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Josh Taylor vs Teofimo Lopez on: April 14, 2023, 08:49:01 PM
I think this is a bigger fight that Jack Catterall though, and maybe it's the right move for him. This fight is in the US, and hopefully Taylor should be exposed there, he is the undisputed 140 lbs and some of us forget that because he chooses to fight in the UK after unification with Ramirez. If he could just chosen a US boxer, it could be a different outcome and maybe he doesn't have to vacate some of his belts and retain them and then defend it to their mandatory. So this is a comeback fight, on the other hand Teo will have a lot of his plate at this new division.

The fight with Jack Catterall is on his hometown of Scotland, I think he just wanted to show his fans after winning all the belts. But Jack is a very difficult opponent for him, maybe as mentioned, he has a hard time making the weight at 140 lbs and it could be one factor in the fight. However, Jack really delivers one of his best performance to almost upset Josh in his hometown. It's almost back fire on him though.

But here it will be in Madison Square Garden if I'm not mistaken so Teo has the advantage because he has a lot of fans here.

So we will see the big mouth Teo here if he can back up his trash talking as he said that he will tear up Taylor more than what Jack did.

Just like what Canelo is doing in his next fight, it will be in his hometown Mexico against Ryder. However, Taylor's fight almost ruin his career as it was a close fight with Jack and as what we have been saying very controversial outcome.

Same with Lopez, against Sandor Martin, he has difficulty against the bigger Martin or the natural 140 lbs. So what's more if he is going to fight the very best of this division which is the former unified champion. Taylor though as fought in the US before so I don't see Teo even if he has the advantage of fans in MSG winning here. And Scots are also fond of their boxers and going to support and maybe some of them are going to travel in the US to see this fight.

I even thought Jack Catterall was an easy fight and who knows he was probably cherry-picked by Josh Taylor for his homecoming fight. Taylor having difficulty making the weight might be the factor. But there are other things to consider, Catterall tried to trash talk and even held the neck of Taylor to get under his skin. Taylor was probably angry and was out of focus. Or the homecoming fight might have pressured him as his local fans were expecting their undisputed champion to showcase his skills.

The same with Canelo, maybe there is also pressure to perform well in his homecoming fight.

That fight was supposed to be a walk in the park for the former undisputed champion but it was the opposite thing because it was a near defeat on his case as he probably underestimated Jack Catterall on that specific fight. And yes, that was probably a cherry picked fight because it's a homecoming fight but we had a different fight as Josh Taylor was struggling and I suppose he was surprised by it too.

Talking about that, will that same scenario happen again but this time against Teofimo Lopez? Because if Josh was already struggling at that fight against Catterral then maybe Teo got some decent chances to upset the champion and this may be his best fight where he will be the champion against an opponent that doesn't have any prior injuries.

Just had a wild thought though hehe, either way, I can't just disregard the fact that Josh used to dominate this division and Teo is just a mere challenger on his throne.

There could be factors that might affect Josh Taylor's performance against Jack, maybe the style of Catterall is not suited for him, or there is pressure on his shoulder to be great and make a statement win in front of his home crowd, or he didn't train that hard or underestimate his rival or even the weight is an issue on him.

Josh is the king of this division, he had all the belts and beat the champion and tough boxer. It's that Jack Catterall that night is really hard for Josh to crack but he still did his best and rise to the occasion and score although a controversial win. However, they should have learn from that fight and not let Teo Lopez open his mouth and win the mental battle.

The hotcake has been always Bitcoin. Since you are complaining about being a victim of altcoins' scams and falling for false promises, I believe you should go through a safer route with your investments in cryptocurrency, and the safest route is Bitcoin, without any doubts.

Obviously it is the only one, as it is the prime mover in cryptocurrency and no one can dislodge it from the top. But assuming that we are in this board, the OP is looking for altcoin. Maybe he knows that risk as he put it, "dumping ground".

Otherwise, if you continue playing around with altcoins, in an attempt to be lucky guy to pick the right one that will boost your earnings in x100, x1000 overnight, it's certain you are going to continue falling for such scams over and over again!

Not saying that you are wrong, but I guess in altcoin market, you also need extreme luck to find that needle in the haystack. And some could have find that gem during the last bull run. Or has taken that risk, invest early on lets say Axie before it exploded and make huge gains, rinse and repeat. Now it's time for us to look for that kind of project that will give us that x100 or higher returns.
1144  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Terrence Crawford vs Errol Spence - June 17 on: April 14, 2023, 08:19:22 PM
That's normal. We choose our fighter as it will make the fight exciting to watch. Although both are great boxers and champions, we choose which side we think will win, especially if we are betting at the same time. It's not going to be easy for either fighter, but at least we will finally see them fight, which will prove the doubters wrong that one of them is evading this fight.
Too quick to say if we will see them fight, it's not from an official site this fight will happen at June 17, one or both them are still evading this fight. It will be disappointing if this fight will never happen, they're just want to stay in their comfort zone after they've collected and defended their belt.

There's always a boxer should able to beat them, if they want to move to the next weight, it's not prevent them to risk their record except they want to stay without any title.

That is why it is much better to keep some safe distance rather than biting these speculations especially if the names Crawford and Spence are linked to it, and as long as either one of them isn't confirming these rumor that they are indeed discussing the terms of the fight. It's more like these two seems like water and oil, they just can't be mixed.

They should vacate their belts if they aren't making fights as there are more deserving to have that belt and probably will give the fans the fight they wanted.
April 22, 2023 - Save the date people because that's the day of their announcement and that's also the day where we will know the winner of Tank vs Ryan fight.

Few more days to go and we will all know the real update between Crawford vs Spence's unification fight and most probably, we will know as well what happened to the Thurman vs Spence fight at 154 and why the negotiations failed. I honestly can't wait what Spence's camp have to say because they always got an alibi even if it's not that convincing.

For sure all fans are waiting for this day to see if there is a official announcement of the fight or if this is just April Fools joke from them. On the other hand, I think we are all lock in on the Ryan Garcia vs Tank Davis fight.

But still though the biggest fight that we wanted to see is Spence vs Crawford for all the belts on the line at 147 lbs.

Thurman is also not saying anything about the media about his supposedly fight and it might give us a hint that it's not going to happen because Spence is now going to fight Crawford. However, we need to wait for everything to make it official.
1145  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Tank Davis vs. Ryan Garcia betting and discussion (May, 2023) on: April 14, 2023, 08:04:00 PM

But yes, just like you mate, we as the avid fans of boxing are hopeful that he already left his old version where he was too vulnerable. Other than that, it's good that a fight like this happened where we can witness two KO specialist sharing a ring because these days, it's almost already rare seeing this type of fight.

He needs to change that strategy if he will continue being predictable with fewer footworks and just trying to land a solid punches,
it will be hard for him knowing Davis is a smart and also a KO specialist.

He needs to move more and try to dance with whatever the music Davis will direct the tempo of the fight, hoping to see the adjustment from him here.

Both are good at throwing solid combinations and with that capabilities we are expecting a KO outcome whoever wins the fight.
And Ryan Garcia should improve his defense because most of his fights are only showcasing how good his punch is but his defense is not that tight as he always leaves his jaw open. That's why Campbell was able to land a good punch on him that almost flip the fight.

But in this instance, we might see a fight that is more on defense rather than throwing volumes even if it's a solid combinations because both camps cannot afford to make mistakes here as that's a risky on their side because the more you throw a punch, the more chances your opponent to give a counter punch which we know that both of their punches are quite lethal.

That's one weak spot of Ryan, he doesn't have a good defense, heck he doesn't even have movement in his feet. All he do what chase his opponent, and tuck his chin with this shoulder roll. But when that chin is exposed for sure Davis might touch that, similar on how Luke Campbell got him in their fight.

So he really needs to work that one out, at least some movement, left and right, otherwise Tank might time him coming inside and put that one punch that will knock him out for good. And it's just about a week, everyone is really hype and excited about and for sure majority have put their bets already.
1146  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: April 14, 2023, 07:35:25 AM

And it will be fitting that he is going to face his former team as a assistant coach under Steve Kerr. So he might have the advantage because he should know the rotation and their defensive movement.

I don't see the advantage here because if he just copies the system, I think the Warriors have the better advantage in terms of players' skills. Also, take note that the Warriors are the defending champions, yet they haven't gained respect due to their bad regular season record, especially their road record.

So, let's talk about the road game. Based on record, Sacramento should have the advantage. However, this is playoffs, and there is a different atmosphere for sure.

It's 0-0 so there's no advantage even if Brown was used to be the assistant coach. Maybe the Warriors have different system now, and if I'm not mistaken, he is the defensive coach of the Warriors back then so if there is something that he is familiar then it will be how the Warriors play defense. On the other hand, they have new set of players and maybe they got a new defensive coach that have negated what Brown used to employ in the Warriors.

But as you have said, the Warriors has a bad record in the road, could be a factor. However, this is going to be a series so there's a lot of momentum changes, last year they were down against the Boston Celtics but they overcome them and win the NBA trophy.
1147  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Tank Davis vs. Ryan Garcia betting and discussion (May, 2023) on: April 13, 2023, 04:05:03 PM
And Ryan has been ripped already, seen some pictures of him on his social media and definitely ready for this big fight. And probably he is just walking within 140 lbs now and just need to cut to get into the 136 lbs catchweight.

And the below picture is one of them hehe. Yeah, he looked ripped already with barely ten days into the fight and that 136 lbs catchweight is very attainable but with the 10 lbs limit rehydration clause i think he would still look like that picture below, i mean he will only be taller, and not a bigger boxer this time. Davis has done a good job of beating Ryan Garcia outside of the ring. His boss (Oscar) knows well how it is to be only taller but beaten by a faster Manny Pacquaio.


ctto

10 days and we will see if how both fighters will talk without a voice inside the ring, they are both expected to be aggressive and wanted to put down / knock down on another, the ringside is the right venue to execute those trash talks that they are throwing from one another, I see a good advantage with Tank as Ryan still needs to lose some weight before the fight.

we will see if being tall but not in a usual form will affect Ryan's movements and fighting capabilities, or it can be a vice versa.

If we based on the pictures, yeah, seems to be that Garcia has no problems making that 136 lbs catchweight. But still depend on how mentality he is ready for this fight. Remember that he had a big mental breakdown before and with this big fight ahead of him, we don't know that status of him inside, nevertheless we all hope that he had recovered already and that he is fine now.

Both of them have public workouts and looks amazing. But only one can be declared the winner. But the true winner will be us, boxing fans, even if we are not fan of either boxer, still good that we can see this kind of fight, two very young and undefeated boxers.

Everyone has it's threshold of happiness, so I will agree that most of us are very happy to see $30k. See someone not feeling any, I guess that's normal too as he might have a target price or goal, but let's see how we feel when we reach $100k next year?

And with that, the price is still going, now it's moving again to $30,400 and we don't know when this hype train will stop.

The good thing is that we continue to hold and not sell although obviously we are happy to see the price, but we are all waiting for that bull run that will start next year. So the most exciting times is not yet happening.
1149  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: April 13, 2023, 11:07:48 AM
The Raptors took the lead in the first half, and it was the Raptors that dominated the game until the final quarter. But as we entered the final period, the Chiacago Bulls started to play unbelievably. Thanks to Zach Lavine and Demar Derozan, the Bulls managed to beat their opponent Smiley
They managed to come back in the game where they fell 19 points. The season is over for the Raptors, the Chicago Bulls still have a chance

It was definitely the last quarter when the Raptors lost the game. Even in the third quarter, it did not feel like the Bulls were going to win the game. Great performance by LaVine. DeRozan also helped him a lot. The Raptors certainly had a good performance but in vain. This was certainly a very good comeback by the Bulls. I believe if the Bulls can perform confidently, which they should after this game, they certainly have a chance this season.

But in the closing of the 3rd quarter, you can sense that Bulls is not going away easy and Lavine is hitting those crazy shots and same with DeRozan.

They had a good lead, but was not able to sustain it, they try to, but the Bulls can't be denied this huge win in the road. Again, it was because of their two superstars in DeRozan and Lavine who keep the team composed even if they are in deficit rest of the game. Just too bad that the Raptors fans come to see only their team losing in that kind of fashion.

It was disappointing because they were in control of the game in the beginning and had a good lead, but they allowed the Bulls to come back.

 I can say that it was the defense. The Bulls have a great defense, especially in the 2nd half, and slowly the Raptors lost confidence.

If only everyone got involved, their shooting would be better. However, they chose to rely on VanVleet, who relies more on outside shooting, while the Bulls were always looking for a high percentage shot, which is why they love to drive the ball inside.

And it's just a matter of time before VanVleet misses, and when he do, the Raptors are in trouble although Pascal Siakam trying to make the game close with his perimeter jump shots.

But as you have said, their defense is superb in the second half of the game. And then Zach Lavine playing the MVP numbers in this fight and we thought that he can't miss any shots whether outside or going inside for a easy two or and 1.
1150  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Devin Haney vs Vasiliy Lomachenco - May 20 on: April 13, 2023, 10:45:49 AM
But I think in this fight it will be different Loma, an upgraded version of him because he simply wants to become a champion and whoever is in front of us, he has to do his best and win even if it is against a young and undefeated boxer in Haney.

A boxer can be different against different opponents, as they create a strategy and adjust based on their opponent's style. Lomachenko is a great boxer and was very popular, but unfortunately he lost to Lopez due to an injury. This time there should be no excuses as he is 100% healthy and will be facing a 100% fighter.

He didn't say that it was his excuse though against Lopez, he just admitted that he had that injury prior to the fight and didn't tell the public about it. Maybe he doesn't want the fight to be cancelled and the blame on him or he thinks that he can beat Lopez that time.

Regardless, he has move on and recovered already and make a huge comeback and now fighting for the belt.

For sure he will have his strategy and have game plan against Haney. But I do think that he will adjust on the fly and see what Devin can offer him, in short it might be a chess match in the beginning as both of this fighters have high level IQ.

That's a possibility, but we shouldn't hope it stays that way until the end of the fight. A chess match fight could result in a boring performance from both fighters. If one doesn't take the risk of attacking, then it won't be entertaining to watch. The only way boxing is entertaining is when both fighters are aggressive, or the aggressor is winning the fight.

I think Loma should initiate the contact or the fight here, the judges are not going to favor him in close rounds, because Devin Haney has the belt. So it could be a chess match, but Loma being the aggressor and really try to see what Haney is going to do.

Maybe some feints to see what will be the reaction of Haney and then uses his strategy and his style of Hi-Tech that we all know off.

But for sure, not easy fight for either and for us fight fans, I don't think we will see this fight as boring, we might as well enjoy when we can.
1151  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Banks are collapsing. Will Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies rise from here?? on: April 12, 2023, 10:15:22 PM
the fall of big banks such as credit suisse and sillicon valley bank, made people's trust to put their money in the bank drastically reduced, therefore many people put some of their money in the crypto world, we can see the positive market trend is still continuing, even bitcoin has passed $ 30K

I wouldn't say that people trust in banks are 0 now, but majority of them thinks that its not better to put their money on the banking institutions. Maybe if everything goes back to normal, everything is stable and the economy is good.

So now what the wealthy people might be doing is withdraw their money from banks, look for assets that they can used as a hedge against inflation so that it will still preserved the value of their money. And I think the best assets for them is crypto as it might not be just a hedge, but their money is going to grow overtime. Next year we will be approaching bull run so we all know that we will get profits if we are going to put money on our favorite crypto now.

Bear market can be good or bad depending on the point of your view. If you think that it's actually a negative thing then that will stick into your mind that actually is.

But those that have been waiting for the right moment to buy bitcoin, it actually isn't a bad thing but a good time to have some more bitcoin and buy it at a lower price.

It's beyond our control whether bear market will exist or will end sometime in the near future. And with that having said, we're about to see that it will actually end soon or it actually did.

Yeah, and I guess everyone should have at least experience a bear market in their lifetime, or in their bitcoin investment. I know it's tough, but this is one way to test yourself, on how you are going to take it. There could be individuals who might decide to quit and comeback later. But there could be some who wanted to stay and then rebuild their portfolio, by reinvesting in the bear market and then accumulate. Then it will be rinse and repeat for them, and could be very easy in the next cycle to come because they know what they are  going to do in order to make profit and generate big money out of this bearish trend.

  Guys Share bets that disappointed you, I have a lot of these ridiculous Bets, for example Here I planned to raise a bet every 10,000 rolls, Well Limbo figured out my plan) and rushed to give while standing a small bet Undecided
There is no system made by the dealer to be able to give you a big win, friend.
Small bets may have good results and you will get rotational freedom, but when you have a suggestion to get a big win and decide to increase the bet amount, the dealer will change to be the winner.
This is not a ridiculous bet but a bet that is the same as any other bet in general, it's just that because you increase the bet amount, you feel like you're being played. Grin

Keep going my friend and never give up, hopefully luck will always be on your side.

And that is the most frustrating feeling isn't it, when you just bet small and you keep on winning, but when you become greedy and thinking that if you just put some good amounts maybe your winnings will multiple again, wrong, as the casinos will have the house edge and in the end it's going to bite us all.

Same with the rest of you guys, chasing big bets in sports betting in parlay, 100x or more and you almost pull one of the biggest bet in your life. Suddenly just one bet destroys everything.

I guess you don't need to feel guilty or what, yeah you show them how to gamble online, but it's totally out of your control on how they are going to gamble. Unfortunately many of us become addicted to, maybe there are individuals here who got out of their addiction because someone help him or it is ourselves who says that we need to stop gambling already.

1155  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: April 12, 2023, 11:06:05 AM
DeMarcus Cousins came out and said that he believes he is the third best center in the league right now. That’s a little crazy when you think about how few games he’s played the last 5 years. No doubt he’s a beast and probably deserves a chance. There must be something keeping him from being signed though and I think it’s his attitude not any blackballing.
Attitude. That's one of the problems. Then, injuries. Finally, he always fouls out when he was in Denver Nuggets. If you are one of the best centers in the league then you must have the skills to avoid those kinds of fouls. He probably doesn't know how good contests would be. I think Kevon Looney is one of the centers that are good at contesting shots with just straight arms.
Despite that, I still want to see if there are changes in his attitude toward the game. I want to see him play in the NBA again.

Now, we have the Lakers secured at 7. I love what they did with the Antman. He only scored 9 points in 43 minutes.
Tomorrow, the Pelicans versus the Thunders. Who will battle the Timberwolves for the 8th spot? My prediction is the Pelicans will win it.

Very hard to predict that OKC still has some good players that might upset the Pelicans, SGA for sure will have to elevate in this game. Although BI and CJ could be a problem for the OKC, specially BI who is really good in their last 10 games.

The initial line for the Pelicans is -5.5. Might be tempting to bet, but we will see.

Might be good to see the game first before making our bets.

Can someone explain what will happen if they all end up with a season standing of 43-39? Will there be a tiebreaker game, or if not, who will finish in the 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th places? I didn't know how tiebreakers work in a play-in tournament.
I shared how the mechanics will be 2 days ago here. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1220979.msg62054312#msg62054312
I hope that helps.

Suns picked Clippers instead of Warriors. They could've won the game if they wanted to, but lost to Clippers and became play-off first round opponents. This is pretty logical as they avoid the last champion. Paul George's return is still unknown.
Lakers won but it wasn't enough for 6th place. They need to pass play-in rounds now. Pelicans is also in form but Lakers wouldn't make mistakes here.
Phoenix Suns might win this first round without PG13 around but they do have to be careful with Westbrook. That dude will certainly give his all, especially with a goal of a championship. This may be his last chance in a good team with Kawhi Leonard so he will play harder than before.

The Lakers on the other hand need to locked in at the 7th spot and there's a lot of speculations on Youtube now with NBA analysts that they might get it.
But, I would not underestimate the power of BI and CJ. Those two can go hot at any instance, a good defender should be posted on them. Vanderbilt will be a good choice to be posted against BI and Reaves for CJ.

The Lakers are still not locked in that 7th spot, as you have said, BI and CJ are making a run in their last 10 games so it will be a tight race for that very important 7th spot.

As for the Suns vs Clippers, they already have KD, I think that will be the breaker here. If it will be just Booker against Kahwi and Leonard, and even with PG, Clippers have a good chance. But know the Suns has one of the best offensive weapon right now and it's KD and we haven't seen him really play the level that all we all know. So in this series it will be close but I will have to go with the Suns.

It doesn't work unless you have deep pockets. It will just take a long time before you feel the profits of it which in the long run becomes a boring thing.
Never have I seen a gambling strategy that does work, especially in online casino games. That is one of the biggest reasons why I chose sports gambling instead. Why? Because somehow I could increase the chances of winning a game by using analysis and histories of a player or a team.
Just play the game and enjoy it if you can because do remember the house will always win.

And you have lady luck on your side to win using this method. So it's doable, but as you have said, you need to have deep pocket + lucky to strike and make money out of it.

I will be honest that I used this method on card games like baccarat, but I'm not going to risk to go on a run. 3 successive wins for me, doubling my bet every time is good and I will stop and stand up already and maybe take a rest if I'm in a land base casinos or try any other games or even go home with my winnings already.
1158  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Josh Taylor vs Teofimo Lopez on: April 10, 2023, 06:26:31 AM
It's interesting to note though that Regis Prograis, the WBC champion in the 140 lbs is already a free agent. He used to be under Probellum, but we all know that the boxing outfit or at least most of it's boxers have bee taken by Disrupt Promotions, except maybe for Donaire and Eimantas Stanionis who remain who remain with Richard Schaefer.

And with that, we might see a possible scenario that Prograis might fight the winner of this fight, or at least will go for any unification in this division as Taylor only held one belt (WBO) and it will be on the line against Lopez.

I just saw Teo and JT's slight trashtalk in an interview and it's evident enough for me to see that Josh Taylor doesn't have any fears in his upcoming fight against Teo, he was just too confident that Teo can't do a difference in that fight which is understandable because he is still undefeated and a former undispted champion.

While Teo was just speaking nonsense and talking that he will defeat Josh with a statement because he is the greatest in the industry now and it's already predicted as that's what the greatest will do. Quite funny I would say because I can see that he was just bluffing because he already probably know the difference of their power and he's just trying to mess with Josh in the head. But JT didn't took the bait, as expected.

Haven't seen that but obviously, we all know how Teofimo's mouth is, it was very evident when he defeated Loma and he multiply his trash talking when he fought Kambosos, most likely it's because of his confidence win against Loma that time and he thinks he is the best boxer and a crowd drawer. But Kambosos put him in the right place when he defeated that big mouth of Teofimo and his father.

But since he is on 2 winning streak, albeit against low key fighters and he didn't fare good in his last fight, still though he chooses where he is good at, trash talking his opponent. But JT is not going to back down because he has the tools and has been a undisputed in this division wherein Lopez is just trying to make his name.

Will there come a time when online casinos will implement that you upload a responsible gambler certificate before you continue to play because of too many government restrictions it's not necessary for newly registered gamblers but for gamblers who lose a lot of money and their activity is they are suspected to be addicted to gambling.

I don't think that this is a good idea though for casinos, I mean everyone is welcome to play, not unless you are underage or you are a suspicious person. It's business and I don't see them restricting anyone from entering or playing, whether online or offline casinos.

The reason why the government will implement this, as a precaution, is to protect people from losing their wealth and their health from too much gambling because of addiction, it's a way of protection.

If government wanted to protect everyone from gambling, then they should ban it simple as that.

But as you can see there are countries around the world that has a lot of casinos, meaning they support it at some point because they might have been getting benefits from casinos, specially during the pandemic wherein gambling was one source of income from government.

as decentralized finance (DeFi) applications and non fungible tokens (NFTs) become more popular, will they change the way we handle money and own things,

or will they only be used by a small group of people(like now being used) ?

Nah, it is still hype and as we have seen in the past, nothing has change from the ICO days, it will just be pump as hard by anyone or some entity. Sure it might be that there are individuals who see this as a new wave, or new things in handling money, but for me it is the same.

We invest, we jump on the hype, if you are smart enough get out before it burst, get your money, rinse and repeat, simply as that.

So there's no concept of money here, everyone is here for the profit.
