It is good to see that any establishments are willing to accept Bitcoin but the question is if people are also wanted to spend their Bitcoin buying stuff.
That is really amazing, yet most of us had considered Bitcoin as an investment which makes me think that people are still preferred to use fiat over Bitcoin. I'm going to say that because, in myself, I can't do it. I can be one of those people who believe Bitcoin as a currency but never use it in real life as I can see more benefits if I use this for investment.
1202  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Tank Davis vs. Ryan Garcia betting and discussion (May, 2023) on: November 21, 2022, 04:41:20 PM
There is no doubt that this fight is one of the most exciting fights next year but why they are taking too long to prepare for this one? I mean, it's more than 6 months of preparation, are they not gonna fight one or two more fights after that? This is not really recommended because injuries can happen in practice and training and it might lead to postponing or changing the boxer who is supposed to fight them.

Long preparation means a better chance for them to be 100% during the fight. This is a big fight so it deserves a long preparation, and although it's hard to predict who will win for sure we can expect that this fight is going to be a very exciting one. I would be surprise if there will be no knockdowns in this fight.

Me, I'm expecting a knockout here, both are aggressive and they will really test each other in throwing solid combinations,
It's the executions that will make one of them win the fight.

Yeah, long preparation will give both fighters enough time to review all the tapes that they need to observe and assess if
how the opponents will possibly create their strategy.

It will be a very interesting fought as these two are really calling each other and really wanted to test their respective capabilities.

Not that long because as we know Tank Davis have another fight schedule this coming 1st week of January and then the Ryan-Davis fight will happen somewhere in April. Just a little bit over 2 months from Davis's first fight next year, there's no such thing that Davis will train instantly on the 8th of January because he will need to recover and rest for a week or two depending on the damage he will receive against Hector.

I just also found out that Ryan Garcia has his own bout as well this January and probably days ahead before Davis's bout but Ryan didn't disclose any information on who might be his opponent. He just tweeted to stay tuned because he will also return this January, now that's interesting too.

The best season for Clarkson so far, in that game, he took over in the 4th quarter to give the Jazz a comfortable lead, it looks like he already is the main man of the team, the previous 6th man of the year will likely become an all star this season. Their chemistry is really impressive, you can tell by looking at the scores distribution, I mean everyone is contributing on the floor.

I guess the lack of a superstar is working great for the Jazz. Since there is no superstar that hogs the ball, they all get touches and a chance to contribute to a win. That is great basketball. In this scenario, the coach should get a credit as well since he brings out the best on his team even when they are on a rebuilding process.

That specific situation seems to work them at best because they are not following any lead and play of a superstar that will need them to adjust accordingly. Jordan Clarkson is their only all-star player but there's nobody standing above them, as we can see, they are playing fairly as everybody seems to be touching the ball and contribute whenever they have the chance.

And for betting, can't really decide whom I'll bet soon but I'm already expecting that Spence will be the favorite while Thurman is the underdog.

That is the nearest and expected scenario, I won't be shocked either if Spence will be indeed listed as the favorite by the bookies as Spence's recent fight is impressive especially the last one when he destroyed Ugas's face even after the eye surgery he got. Though, I'm thinking that it will be just a slight favorite rather than to be listed as a heavy favorite because Thurman is also no ordinary boxer.
1205  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Casimero vs Akaho - December 3 on: November 21, 2022, 03:29:03 PM
Funny thing is we aren't used by Casimero's silence after climbing the super bantamweight division, it is so unlikely of him to be this serious without making any appearances or noise for teasing his foes. But it's a good thing because he really is serious this time and will just want to surprise the world again of his return after the issue he was in few months before. Anyway, I'm really positive that he can defeat Akaho, I just want to see how will Casimero deliver the message in this division.

For me, just take it with a grain of salt. Maybe the media are not just following Casimero right now that's why no words coming from him are being made. A few days before the fight, I believed that will be the time we can some fresh related news about Casimero.

It's now around 2 weeks before this fight will officially take. Casimero is surely excited to return to the ring after months of being on hiatus.

That might be true or not, but that is not important as long as Casimero is now more serious on his future fight because this might be his last chance to prove his worthiness. If he cannot defeat Akaho then it might be best for him to say his goodbyes in the industry he loved as there's nothing he can do anymore. But as per chances, Casimero has the upper hand, and so I expect that he won't be struggling this time around especially now that his weight is not holding him anymore.

That's the right thing to do, it's not a championship fight for him but he should think about where he is now, if he wants to be a champion again, he cannot loss a single game. Who knows, he might face Inoue going forward, but like I said, he has to continue winning until he will be a challenger to the champion.

Don't worry folks, Casimero exactly know the position he is in currently and the gravity of consequence if he cannot make it past this fight. That fact alone is enough for Casimero to strive hard in this new division, and he can't just give up because he haven't had the chance yet to dance with Inoue. We never know, Bob Arum might choose him for Inoue's debut.
1206  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Terence Crawford vs David Avanesyan December 10 on: November 18, 2022, 06:13:02 PM
^^ That's part of it I guess, no one wants to accept the blame for a fight to not happening as big as this one. But at least we have heard the side of Crawford, maybe it's just half truth or wait, I'm still interested to hear though as who is that hedge fund manager willing to offer them guaranteed money of $50 million, maybe it's just a bluff on his end, hehehehe.

But yeah, December 10, we shall see if Avanesyan is really good as advertised by Crawford as an opponent. Or will it be just an easy fight for him and then his critics will go after him for taking an easy route.

There's no way that we could find out even if Crawford will confirm that what he was saying are all true and there is indeed that person who is interested to give them that huge guaranteed money of over a $50M just to make the fight happen. And of course, Al Haymon will decline that offer because he himself can make the fight happen and a $50M is not that big compared to what he could've earn if he will make the fight happen, I reckon it will be at least $100M considering that Spence is the PPV King and adding Crawford in the equation will be a sure blockbuster hit. Unfortunately, Al or Spence is not yet ready for it.
1207  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Crawford vs Spence on: November 18, 2022, 04:50:03 PM
But what if Spence is seeking for that 'danger'? Spence got the skills. Being young could give him a drive or a reason to go whatever comes to his mind especially if it is for the betterment of his career. It is hard to also tell whether the management of Spence is afraid of Crawford given that Spence has his own advantages. Probably there's more to that such as engaging to a more 'noisy' match up unless there's a personal goals on either Spence and Crawford's end. We have seen 'beef' before and these two didn't had it. It is just us, the fans, who are demanding for this one and if this thing won't happen, I guess the only thing we could do is to wait for their fate to go head to head, one day.

That is the kinds of questions that will be remained unanswered, unless Al Haymon or Spence will speak up or admit that either one of them was guilty and just afraid to face Crawford Cheesy Seems unlikely, right? So, I guess that will remain unanswered.

Spence may have wanted the fight but he cannot do anything on his own accord because he still need Al Haymon's blessings anyway, just like Crawford when he was still under Bob Arum's umbrella. The fight may only happen if both of them are flying solo.

That won't happen, it is too impossible to hear and see that Spence especially Al Haymon will admit that they are indeed ducking because they cannot afford right now to face the current strength of Bud Crawford. We can only speculate on who is really ducking between them but we cannot verify it.

Let's just enjoy their respective fights for now because this undisputed fight is still impossible to happen right now or at least next year. It will take some time before they will face each other, but that is if both of them will survive their future fights until they will meet again and share the same ring.
1208  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Tank Davis vs. Ryan Garcia betting and discussion (May, 2023) on: November 18, 2022, 04:24:41 PM
One of the most awaited fight next year, and finally it's being realized and it's time for Ryan Garcia to prove that he can beat a real champion. Though Ryan Garcia here has the height and reach advantage, but Tank Davis is a champion for a reason, he is quick and has a high IQ in the ring, so it's good that these two will clash next year.

Yes, finally. Ryan Garcia can now have a shot at the throne of Davis's and might dethrone the current champion if he's talent and skills will prevail over Tank Davis. But certainly he won't getting a nice and safe journey because cracking the current champion won't be easy even if Garcia here already have what it takes as Garcia is different that is why he is the champion. Garcia might've got the advantages needed but he also need to outsmart Tank's IQ in the ring.
1209  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Errol Spence vs Keith Thurman on: November 18, 2022, 04:01:57 PM
So far, Errol Spence won the voting. However, it's fun to see that some posters think Thurman stands a chance of winning this fight. I'm hoping that it will not end in the judges' scorecards so there will be no controversy in case this fight is going to be a tight one. Thurman is not gonna make it easy for Spence, he is the champ but Thurman was once a champ and he is still young and could prove that he deserves to have a belt again.

Not surprising because many people believed that Thurman cannot make any difference at this point while Spence's still on his peak, I'm not saying that Thurman is already old because their gap is only a year, but people will still believe that he doesn't have that skillset to defeat the 3-belt champion and that excludes me because I believe that Thurman is not yet done.

I'd say that Spence should secure a rematch clause just to be sure if ever Thurman will indeed manage to upset Spence because I can see that Thurman might face another boxer instead if he's through with Spence as there's no clause that will block his way. Just a wild speculation though! Cheesy

That is normal because Keith Thurman has been away in the game for more than 2 long years while Errol Spence here was also making his way to the top and fighting for the glory. Back at the day, their path almost crossed but Thurman wasn't that interested in fighting Spence because the latter has nothing to offer as he's just a mere challenger, now, the situation has been flipped because Thurman is now pursuing Spence.

Nevertheless, this will be a must watch epic fight in the making. Spence got some skills but Thurman also got it, but big question is, who's likely to surive?

Might be checking first if there's news that come up before taking or placing bet if ever.

That's a must because you need to be aware of the injury report as star players might be out when they are listed as questionable or out. When it comes to betting, it's also good if you know how to bet live, that's live betting, that way you can find good odds gives you nice value for your bets.
1211  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will Bitcoin Repeat History ? on: November 18, 2022, 05:40:17 AM
It is believed that the price of Bitcoin will increase by 80% after the halving. But how far will the price of Bitcoin drop if there are not a large number of people buying Bitcoin.
A lot of people have indicated that this is an opportunity to buy bitcoins now and stash them. But why is the price of Bitcoin still the same. I think Bitcoin may repeat history, but it may not. I don't believe in prophecies.
I'm not sure about an 80% increase after halving but what just I know is that prices will soar high after that. Prices will turn high even more by 80%, with no stopping until the end of the bull season.

And if we believe this will happen again, then help ourselves to prepare for it by simply accumulating more Bitcoin. In fact, we have been given the chance already and it was a shame of we just disregarded this and let go of the moment.

Not much to watch out for the games tomorrow, 1st game both weak teams, 2nd game weak team vs strong team.

1- NLEX vs DYIP
2 GINEBRA VS BOSSING>

I think I'll just try to bet on the spread of Ginebra as they need a win here. Against Blackwater, I think they can dominate the team and will get and easy win. No betting odds available yet but Ginebra will surely be a heavy favorite.

If it will not be available tonight, we will surely see these odds tomorrow.

NLEX vs DYIP, although NLEX here is probably the favorite they are also struggling in this conference. With 4 straight losses, I think they are just the same as DYIP has a chance here to break their losing streak. About Ginebra vs Bossing, this will be fun but of course, Ginebra will win in the end, however, I'm not sure if they can cover the spread.

Crypto will rise after a tragic price dump. Those who can afford to wait will get rewards, I'm not sure what will happen to those who left early and sell their coins.

I invest in crypto today believing that someday it make me happy, earning a profit. I've heard a lot of negative news, FUDs, market issues, etc. Might be a big deal for others but for me, it was just how the market looks like and it cost market volatility. If we are investing crypto, make it sure that we are ready enough to face this difficult times.

It is Bitcoin. Not that I say it was giving you a High return but it gives you security if we're just able to hold and sell them at the right time.

Stop looking for HYIP projects as you are just risking your money on them. You are right investing in these projects will give you huge returns, only if you got lucky. You should know that it was a good investment as they might just giving you a favor for a short period of time, not a long-term profit unlike if you are investing Bitcoin or some potential altcoins.

I keep my crypto folio on goodle drive and partial on one drive.
I read reminder news on top page and still doubt to keep staying or moving it.

what your thought?
It is everyone's concern about the safety of our funds and it was highly advisable also not to put our money in any online wallets unless it is necessary but to not takes so long to stay there. If you are the one who is afraid of losing your money, then make sure that your coins ins your full control, not someone else.

There are a lot of stories and claims in regard to losing their money in exchanges and online wallets. We should anticipate the possible hacks, we never know who is their target.

It was just temporary and just for now as along the way, changes will come.
Though I see Matic as one of the promising crypto projects, however, it was not really in its position to be on top ( that is what I see). But yes, I appreciate what really happen to them, it was an indication to see that this project will tend to compete with others and even have the chance to rule them all. Yet, the situation isn't long-term to know that their is manipulations in the market.
1218  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do not believe every crypto news you read online on: November 15, 2022, 09:56:18 PM
Many news sites publish encrypted messages that are inaccurate. Most of them will add interest to the news for traffic, create false hype and spread FUD to induce investors. Therefore, in the encrypted world, we should be vigilant whether to believe the news and judge whether the encrypted news is true. Whether it is investment or trading, you must have your own judgment standards and make wise and correct choices.
Don't really trust the news you find because it's not necessarily true. You should be able to look up news from other sources to compare them to find out what's really happening. Once you know, you don't need to panic and live with what will happen while preparing a plan for dealing with situations that will occur later. Sometimes the news is made to attract the attention of many people and for that, news sources sometimes provide news that can make people worry and panic. We must keep trying to stay calm to see what we can do.
The credibility of the site and the source of information is the thing we have to consider. Many platforms have been created for some reason: to ruin someone and to praise people/projects. So, we need to have multiple sources of information in order for us not to become biased and also to assess who is telling the truth or not. It is obviously a wrong move to trust easily what we heard and read online as more of them are false information which indeed leads us to worries and panic.
1219  Economy / Economics / Re: How much longer until paper money is no longer in circulation? on: November 15, 2022, 10:19:19 AM
“Using digital currency is no longer an issue, it’s a timing, the global pandemic crisis has led to new habits among consumers around the world, they are giving up cash, and businesses are responding,” said Daniel Schulman, Digital The development of money can ultimately help improve the financial health of people, households and businesses around the world.
Time will indeed answer everything, because the use of digital currency will soon penetrate all regions of the world over time slowly, although the use of fiat or paper currency will not just disappear amid the development of digital currency and its applications in society.

And if it is associated with health problems, the use of paper money can also be very safe as long as the person giving and the person receiving wear gloves for better health protection although it is also more complicated when compared to the use of digital currency which can be used very simply without have to think about gloves or something.
Besides, we don't have any idea how long this Bitcoin will stay in the market but I see fiat is still there for many years to come. I'd still consider the use of fiat/cash is still the most preferred by people, especially poor people. I would say that getting into a digital mode of payment is a great development but we also have to consider that some individuals are not ready for this. That I leave this as an option for ordinary people to adopt or not.
1220  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Not all new Projects are bad, So take the Risk on: November 14, 2022, 10:23:06 PM
Of course, not all new projects are bad, but new projects are very prone to scams because during the pre-sale of tokens they could run away after collecting funds from investors. Therefore, it is very necessary to conduct in-depth research before investing in a new project and of course, you must be prepared for the risks that will be faced.
perhaps, it was a very usual issue that we experience in investing in new projects which is very alarming or discouraging people to invest in them.
If I invest in crypto, I'd never spend a lot of time digging and searching for legit new projects but directly go for known and potential coins already like BTC and ETH. Because it found out that even if we do research this won't guarantee safety, many projects have a good start but in the later part, they turn into scams.
