Actually, I want to do that because it never happened to me. That kind of loss will be remembered by yours and when the price of bitcoin goes up, you'll do the calculation on how you've lost at that value. It does happen sometimes for someone who's too excited and haven't checked the figures if the ones being entered is the correct one. You can correct that mistake and will sure be one of your things to avoid for your next bets to come.

I got that email also before and I understood quickly that it was like an extortion email. Those that have been said is just like a script that they send to the emails that they've got in their database. Because it's not just one or two emails that I've received with exactly the same content for those emails so, I already got what it is all about. They scare the hell you out that they've got everything but don't believe it and don't click any linking sites that they've got at the end of their message because when you do then that's going to be the start of the disaster. Thanks for reminding us about this type of scam.

Alright, just after the Lima major and those that have been too curious and were aware of the cheating that Team Knights did during the qualifiers, there's now an action that's been made by Valve and Perfect World. And they're not the only players from that team has been banned, there are too many of them. There goes the lifetime ban for players and those that have the duration of 1 year and 2 years ban.
Refer to this list for those players: Knights and EHOME Players Amongst 46 Banned From Dota 2 Pro Circuit

To be able to have a lot of money, of course the most important thing is to improve education, many people do everything to be able to get the best education, if education is good it will be easier to learn to make or manage money so that it can improve the economic conditions of humans. And other things of course are state support because the good education process is certainly the responsibility of the state.
Tech billionaires stopped their college studies but that doesn't mean they aren't educated. Education is a vast thing and it covers a lot of things to be learned in many aspects. As a commoner like me, I value education a lot because it will be your companion wherever you are and it's not just all about knowledge but it also includes values and good conduct. I admire those people that came from poor communities but never gave up and saw that being educated was their golden ticket outside of poverty and from there, money will follow their footsteps based on what they've taken.

I've never done this again but I did it only with one person and that was my cousin where it had happened years ago. We went to physical gambling places near our area and that's where we trusted each other when someone don't have money. I'll let him gamble with my money and vice versa. It's a mutual agreement and it's hard to find this type of setup unless a friend or relative really trusts you with their money and they know that you've got luck with you and that's why they're betting on you and allow their funds to be gambled.
1886  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you guys think that there will be a new technology to recover lost of Bitcoin on: March 08, 2023, 08:29:53 PM
They're talking about quantum computers that might break the network security of blockchains and PoS in nature. We don't know what's gotta be the future but all of those are the same as the crypto market, they're all speculative. Been hearing that a lot that there will be a technology that shall replace blockchain and kick out bitcoin on its ranking and that's the same with the topic about there could be a possible technology that might recover those lost bitcoins forever. It's just being talked about but never seen it happen in actuality.
A Quantum computer also won't be able to recover bitcoins, even if it looks like a supercomputer.
But bitcoin security has been designed to address the threats that Quantum Computers might pose.

Bitcoin uses Post-Quantum Encryption Technologies, such as Lattice-based cryptography or Hash-based cryptography.
Bitcoin also uses the ECDSA cryptographic security with a 256-bit size.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice-based_cryptography
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash-based_cryptography

Speculation that Bitcoin can be recovered when keys are lost is just nonsense.
There will be no such technology today or for the next few decades.
If that happens the bitcoin system will collapse.

and the replacement for blockchain is just bullshit as well, Blockchain is still the best ledger technology and many use blockchain as an Example of another ledger development.
That will break the news for sure if it happens but as I've said, we still haven't seen it done by someone successfully. I guess there were attempts and there will be more as bitcoin becomes valuable every after the halving happens.
But whether we like it or not, as of the moment, it's impossible to recover those bitcoins that have been gone forever. People that are new to the market might feel that they don't like it but there's the positive thing about it as if they're donated to the entire economy of bitcoin as it reduces the entire supply in the economy.

What if the midlaner is going to be Armel? He's free and I don't know any other midlaners that are quite available as of the moment and I'm sure Puppey is willing to explore that.
Armel would be a good potential pick up for Team Secret as I remember seeing his LFT tweet including the other players from Fnatic.

There's also OG announcing their role swap between Chuvash and Misha, so now Chuvash will be taking the support role together with Taiga while Misha moves to the coaching position.

https://twitter.com/OGesports/status/1632788479666008065
Armel is flexible and I think really suits the play style of Team Secret but still, it would be hard to ignore the comparison between him and Nisha. But then, everyone has to move on. And for OG, it's good that Misha swapped position with Chuvash since it's notable that with the tournaments that has passed, it's always that Chu was there and he's not able to participate due to some personal reasons, IIRC, it was related to health concerns but either way, both are good players and that's why OG won't just let them go.

GG won the major without dropping a single map in playoffs, impressive!

After Liquid beat talon it was looking like they could give GG a fight in the finals even with a standin, but ended up a clean 3-0 instead

This just proves how valuable supports are  Cheesy
That's so true but all roles are important and that's why when Team Liquid's roster isn't complete, many have already expected them to have that drop in their performance. Not to blame their stand-in because he still did well against Talon but with all the matches they've made with GG, it's really visible that they're no match against them. Another long week without no action in the Dota 2 scene but for those that are still unaware of it, the latest news about Team Secret's roster is out, Resolution and zayac are already out of the team.

You don't need more advice as you already did what you think is right and suggested it to your director. Let that time of informing your customers see the result of that survey you're doing if many of them will respond positively.
Not just because you've announced that you'll accept bitcoin, many customers will be on it already. That's not how it goes but not that much also will change if you adopt that as you've given the customers more payment method choices.
1891  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🕹️ Esports 🎮 Prediction & Discussion Thread on: March 07, 2023, 12:45:56 PM
I agree it's better to stick with Team Secret and avoid playing those extra matches through the qualifiers. And there are rumors that Team Secret might be removing Zayac from the team while Boom is potentially moving to the offlane role.



The roster change somewhat lines up with Reso moving to Old G but now i'm more interested to know who will be Team Secret's midlaner and soft support.  Grin
This is one of the exciting part when a team dissolves and another good team has that rumor of changing their roster. Zayac is no doubt a good position 4 but I like more the tandem of Puppey and Yapzor. When Fnatic was dissolved, I thought that DJ will be going to Team Secret to replace zayac but he went to bleed esports. What if the midlaner is going to be Armel? He's free and I don't know any other midlaners that are quite available as of the moment and I'm sure Puppey is willing to explore that.
1892  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Solana failure resistant? on: March 07, 2023, 09:19:37 AM
What is wrong here? Is it true that blockchain networks are failure resistant?

Or, alternatively, is it true that we misclassify some blockchain-solutions and put a wrong label on a product? What is your opinion?
No system is perfect and even blockchain and with the classification of the use cases of blockchain through different projects like solana, we're seeing the vulnerability of it depending on how it's built. Too many times have it failed and that's why in my eyes, it's not the project where I'll invest. I'll give some examples of the news that has been reported about its network outage issues.


Mind you that these outages did happened at different times.

Gaimin Gladiators with the 3-0 sweep in the grand finals as they're able to first pick Lina three times in a row. Team Liquid gave so much respect to the core heroes of Gaimin Gladiators and prefer to ban them first but they only needed the Lina carry to edge out Team Liquid.
Surprisingly, it was the hero that snuck them for the first and second games and then still didn't ban it. I thought by the game three they would ban her but I guess just after the game 2 they already gave up.

On the bright side, my outright bet on Team Liquid won, and luckily I decided to ride it out because I was thinking of betting on Talon at some point earlier.

Congratulations! Well, on the other hand, they've swept Talon.
1894  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🕹️ Esports 🎮 Prediction & Discussion Thread on: March 06, 2023, 03:21:51 PM
They never banned it for the entire series, for three games. It's crazy to think that Team Liquid never banned it when the first game Lina had already given them a problem. Even it's jabbz that played for pos 5 and insania for pos 4, the adjustment was quite hard on them but it's too obvious for them to just ban comfort heroes of GG. They all knew how good this team was even before the other tournaments. On the game 3, it's funny that the whole Team Liquid was just laughing with what they're doing, that's already a sign that they accept defeat.

The problem is not the hero but how Nisha is dominated by Quinn in all of their game. GG will just use a different hero if they will ban Lina and it's very easy to counter Lina if it doesn't have a good laning phase which he always has since the rotation doesn't help Nisha at all compared to when Boxi does it to support Nisha. I think the gameplay is purely relying to Boxi when they are facing strong team. They just manage to beat Talon because they are ahead in skills individually which is why they are strong on laning phase. GG deserves it because they always have a flawless team fights. RIP to those who bet an outright bet for Team Liquid as wnner.
People are forgetting that GG is certainly a strong team, I've come to realize that just after they've won the Lima major. I've forgotten that they also dominated other tournaments when the DPC season started. You're right, that boxi's absence really is a big hit for their team. It will be an entirely different story if boxi was there. And talking about Talon, they're also a strong team but SEA teams still lacks a lot of experience unlike them. Anyway, gg to Team Liquid and congratulations to GG.

They are just enjoying the moment. You can see it in their faces. That is the best round of the finals. Team Liquid was able to make some good plays and at some point I thought they could bag that round even when the lead is so big.
Yeah, they're enjoying those last moments because it became 2-0 in favor of GG and they have already understood that they can't beat team without boxi. Still, great that jabbz was there to substitute for boxi as that's a time for Team Liquid that they need someone to replace him temporarily.
1895  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🕹️ Esports 🎮 Prediction & Discussion Thread on: March 06, 2023, 09:41:09 AM
Game 1 for the grand finals ended and it was taken by GG. I thought that Liquid will still be able to win that first match but it's noticeable that without boxi, they've got a different playstyle. In the first minutes of the game, it seems that Liquid is playing trash and is like the thrower of the game.
But then, it's just game 1 and there are few games left to see if they've learned from this match. Lina pick again that has lost against NP, they just like giving away lina and don't want to ban it.

Once GG has its hands on Lina, it is an automatic win for them. Team Liquid should ban Lina in the first round because Gaimin Gladiators will have the upper hand once they got a hold of her.

Nisha needs to step up too and force Quinn to make mistakes. Quinn is playing perfectly and has control over Nisha. This is more evident in game two where the map finished too early.

Maybe the result will be different if Boxi is playing but right now, Gaimin Gladiator is head and shoulder above team Liquid. Let's see if it will change in the 3rd map.

Even before, there have been people who have been making a living from gambling. So, anything that circles in the gambling industry, there are always those that earn from it. Not just all about being a gambler, an employee, an affiliate, sponsorships/partnerships, and anything that lies in this business there are people that are making money from it. Also even in those countries where it's said to be a ban and a taboo, it's possible that there are people that have been living through it.

1898  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: In the best interest of investors, Bounties shouldn't be paid in Tokens on: March 05, 2023, 08:38:43 PM
You're right because what's on the mind of the majority of bounty hunters is to dump the rewards in the form of their project's token. Everyone wants to take out their share as soon as possible and as soon as they've received it.
But on the side of these project developers, it's like a surplus to them and that's why they're paying through their tokens. It's like they're paying everyone out of thin air if ever their project becomes successful and if ever it's a failure, they've got nothing to lose but just a part of their supply.
I agree, they just get rid of project tokens that have no value in the short term. Some investors buy from bounty hunters for dirty cheap prices in order to dump on the market when an altcoin rally happens. Unfortunately, not all bounty hunters are patient enough to wait for the right time and then sell the bounty rewards at the highest possible market price. As a final result, bounty tokens are used to decrease the market value of project coins so it is somewhat lose-lose situation for both parties, IMO.
That's the usual thing to do because bounty hunters don't really expect a lot from these projects and they also want to take profit as much as possible. No matter how hard they try to keep it, they've got experiences that it's not a good thing to keep those tokens because they're bound to be dumped by the devs, early investors, and then bounty hunters. Even if they put a lock-in period for the bounty hunters, still, those tokens won't be going anywhere but to be dumped.

If it is the design you're looking for, I reckon the suggestion about using google lens and then searching each of them manually. Actually, I'm aware of betboom's existence thanks to their Dota 2-sponsored team. But despite that, I'm not a fan of their team but I do recognize how good the team and its players are. Btw OP, most of the designs are like where there's the left side panel down the list of games for most casinos if in case you're not aware of it.

I almost thought we'll be seeing a third game because that second game should've been a win for SR but Team Liquid was able to hold on and stop their power spike during the 20+ mins mark.

With SR knocked down to the lower bracket it looks like we could possibly see a matchup between them and EG if they can beat Team Aster tomorrow.


They really will be matching as Team Aster have been beaten by EG but we don't need to wait until tomorrow as the match will happen after the series of Talon and Team Spirit. If you want to bet for that match guys, my tip is that Shopify Rebellion has got the upper hand on this match. Why?
Because Evil Geniuses just came from a tough 3 matches against Team Aster and that has probably drained their minds already. Whilst for SR, this is their only match for this day. I wonder why the scheduling is like that but well, since it's in the lower bracket, all of the favors and toughness are in there.

i thought the match is for tomorrow lol.

I'd be going for -1.5 for Shopify Rebellion in here simply because they are well rested and had the chance to watch how EG plays and learn of some of the strategies they have used during their series with Team Aster. Favorites are SR right now but the -1.5 maps option is still juicy enough for the taking if you want some extra risks to take. I wouldn't call it SR win too early, but with the state of EG right now--drained and tired from the previous match--it's easier for me to favor SR. It will also add if Rtz gives us some more highlights during the day that favors their team to advance in the tournament.
That's okay, Shopify Rebellion just won that and within a few moments from now on they'll be up against Talon Esports and this is the battle for fourth place. I've watched the match between SR and EG and all I can say is that EG really did well in all of those games. And there's the advantage for Shopify Rebellion as you have said they've drained already because they've been with a series just a few hours before they start with SR. Despite that advantage from SR, EG showed that they are one of the best teams in SA and I can say not just there but, also in the entire world IMO. Right on, waiting for the start of Talon Esports and SR.
