Great fights as expected, Rose Namajunas and Weili Zhang fought really well and it was a really close fight and the only weakness for Weili Zhang is that she needs to improve her ground game from the back. Kamaru Usman and Colby Covington was a bit crazy as Colby Covington was tough enough to come back till the final bell even though he was dropped twice in the second round.

Justin Gaethje and Michael Chandler went to war, i was betting for a stoppage but unfortunately it went the decision Cry.

what do you think of binance stalking ETH 2.0 ?
worth it ?
if you could give me your pro and con
If have 32 ETH then you can be a solo validator rathe r depending on anyone else, if you are not holding that much and only a portion then you need to find out someone who is willing to stake them for you and if you think you can trust Binance you can stake your coins.

The con is that if they have a major hack and they plan to shut down their business, you might not get your coins back.

Of course it is worth it because Binance has some similarities with Ethereum.
ETH 2.0 means to be upgrade for Ethereum, it will bring a lot of improvements to the network. If they are successfully running it that means the upgrade does bring something good for the project, then why not follow it and do the same thing too since it is also good for their own.
what is the con for doing something like this? not being the original? I do not know.
OP is not asking about Binance chain and Ethereum, he is asking about staking in their exchange Tongue. Regarding the improvements, i doubt we will see any major improvements and the migration is risky as well Tongue.

This have been my dream for a long time now and it's finally coming true, I spent hours on my Xbox and always have this thought of getting paid while gaming, I've used this to create topics in the past and many said it's impossible but now I think it's becoming a reality
Yes the P2E game are getting popular and in the next couple of years we will see some great games built on blockchain and we will see a niche marketplace with game lovers dominated the space, even though i thought during the initial stages that NFT was a hype but with many development in stores i think it will be here for a long time as we might even see Metaverse games in the near future.

One more easy KO win for Pitbull in the second round of main event against Peter Queally and he is now lightweight champion in Bellator.
It was good event to watch with all prelim fights being free on Youtube, but get ready for next week return of Cris Cyborg against Sinead Kavanagh.
Patrício Pitbull is another fighter who is a world class fighter that never signed with the UFC and another one is Douglas Lima but he is on a loosing streak, but i thought they would end up in the UFC eventually like Michael Chandler but time is running out as age is catching up with them.

There is no competition for Cris Cyborg in any weight division other than Amanda Nunes and i wonder what the odds would be, i really wanted to see that rematch but that is not going to happen Undecided.

-South Africa is officially out from the WC. Group 1 Semifinalist Eng and Aus.
It was a great game and South Africa played well and in the second group Pakistan and New Zealand will get qualified unless we see a spin magic from Afghanistan  Cheesy.

-Ravi Shashtri is in talk with new IPL franchise (Ahmedabad) to become their head coach. lol
Ravi Shashtri can once again become a commentator and i think he needs to take a break from coaching  Cheesy.

Tomorrow New Zealand and Afghanistan will seal the fate of India, expecting incredible bowling from Mujeeb Ur Rahman and Rashid Khan   Cool Cheesy.

That was Mayweather being himself, we know that Mayweather always tried to find some way to get an advantage over his opponents, so he realized that if he did not fought Canelo at that time and waited until Canelo was on his prime then he will be too old and he could lose the fight, but by fighting Canelo when he was still yet to reach his prime he got the win, kept his undefeated record intact and he could brag about it forever even if we know the truth of what happened.
I know there are many who wanted to see Floyd Mayweather loose, but he was too good a boxer that no one was able to defeat him. When Canelo Álvarez faced Floyd Mayweather, Canelo already fought 43 times professionally and you think that was not an experience even after fighting 43 times before facing Mayweather and Mayweather was 36 years of age, in fight terms well passed his prime and still was able to defeat a young up and coming talent which says a lot of the skills set.

That said Canelo Álvarez is the best boxer right now and there is no one who could pose a challenge other than Gennady Golovkin and these two fighters are well above everyone else in terms of skill level.

So what do you think guys, do these odds would attract bettors?
It is not a surprise that Mike Tyson is a heavy favorite and there is no point in betting for the favorite but i would like to see any bookies giving a draw line and what would be the odds for that. I might place a bet on a draw for fun as most of the exhibition fights ends up in a draw. You never know what would happen, logically Mike Tyson should smoke Logan Paul but Tyson is 55 years and what happens if he pulls a muscle during the bout looking for the knockout  Cheesy.
1728  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Country restriction and use of vpn or tor on: November 05, 2021, 08:04:17 PM
One way to anticipate restrictions is to use a vpn or use the TOR browser. But in many TOS of gambling sites I found the site forbids users to use VPN although some customers so far have had no problem with the habit. I just want to know if using a vpn or tor is something that can violate the TOS even though a gambler has been betting on the site for a long time? If the site pays small wins, will they also pay big wins [if the site detect the user is using vpn or tor].
If a website is restricting a certain country you cannot expect them to pay you when you play and win big using a proxy, it will be against their policy even though you are a long term user. If a site is not forcing you to undergo mandatory KYC then you can overcome these restriction by purchasing a dedicated IP rather than using a random VPN or proxy that provides you with dynamic IP whenever you log in.

However, now the only way for India to reach the semi-finals is if New Zealand lose their next match. If New Zealand does not lose, India will be eliminated in the first round.
New Zealand is in good form and it is impossible see a situation that they will loose the match against Afghanistan. Yes Afghanistan has good spin bowlers but it is a hard task and even if Afghanistan want to qualify for the semi finals, they need to defeat them by a huge margin as the net run rate is behind and hence the pressure will be on them.

Two impressive win by India against small teams but it is too late, one more match and play some impressive shots and travel back home Cheesy.

Been extremely careful with how we go about our analysis will help save a lot. Just wondering why developers would come up with nice projects only to crash after a short while keeping investors in losses.
It is extremely difficult to understand whether the project would fulfill what they started out or they run with your money and in most cases they will not deliver and if you are an investors you usually jump during the initial phase if you are looking for a big profit and that is the risk you are taking, if not you can wait till the project delivers something credible and then invest in them, you might not get the benefit like investing in a successful project but still it is a safe bet.

What do you think,
Does it really only take 2% of musk's wealth to solve world hunger?
How do we assess this phenomenon based on its purpose, from a humanity or economic perspective?
I am not sure how they got the value of $6 billion to solve world hunger, if it was that easy then it would have been sorted out long back and these numbers are made up to serve the purpose and nothing else.

I am not doing any research or calculation but from top of my mind i can say that you need an estimated around $100 billion per year to feed everyone globally who is living under poverty. Even if you do that for an year how anyone is going to solve the hunger issue forever if you are not able to spent that much amount every year for infinite years Tongue .

The thing is with Colby; if he doesn't knock out Usman with one hit or at least stun him enough for some ground, and pound then he isn't likely to out point Usman or submit him. I don't think Colby has the knockout power required to beat Usman, and Usman if he does get in trouble will go to wrestling Colby which I don't think Colby has a answer for.
I think you are underestimating the wrestling caliber of Colby Covington who was a NCAA Division I wrestler while Kamaru Usman is a NCAA Division II wrestler in college and there is a reason both did not test their wrestling skills in the first fight as both will sprawl and gas out. Colby Covington do not have knockout power but he has the stamina and is a volume puncher.


This fight will either go the way of the first fight or Usman will use more of his wrestling skills, and grind it out for a relatively non action fight. I'm split between going for a Usman KO/TKO, because of the potential of Usman just playing it a little more safe. I'm not sure yet, but I'm leaning more towards the KO. I can't see Colby winning this fight in any shape or form.
Knowing both their fighting style Kamaru Usman might win like you said but Colby Covington did not fight anyone else and he was preparing for one fight and that is Kamaru Usman and i feel like he might have a solution to win the belt because a loss here and Colby Covington might not fight for the title again, so he knows what is in stores and so is the reason he took a long lay off preparing for him with dedicated coaches he assembled as he is not part of any gym and he was not even active in social media like he used to in the past.  

Kamaru Usman is coming from Trevor Wittman camp where his three fighters are fighting in this card including Rose Namajunas, Justin Gaethje and Kamaru Usman.

India need to win all three of their remaining matches, and that too by a big margin. And in T20, there is nothing like a guaranteed win. On their day, even teams like Scotland or Namibia can defeat the test playing nations (just a few minutes back, Scotland went down against New Zealand, but by the narrowest of the margins). Afghanistan is not even a minnow, and they have some extremely good T20 players. On top of that their players have great experience in playing in the pitches of the United Arab Emirates.
One player can change the match upside down, but in the Scotland match against New Zealand they never threatened to win the match against New Zealand but they surprised everyone when they were trying their best to chase the score even though they lost wickets and Michael Leask impressed me the most with his power hitting and if he was sent earlier then may be they had a chance to win the match.

If Scotland Namibia defeats strong teams then it will be a huge upset without a doubt, there are several players in these small teams that are performing well on an individual level but they fail to perform as a team.
1734  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Can SHIB rise to 0.1? on: November 03, 2021, 11:38:23 PM
It may have given one of the best return but it srill doesn’t change the fact that it's a shitcoin. It's still a shitcoin.
Have you ever calculated what will be the market cap of Shib will be once it raised to $0.10? I think it will be 100x higher than current bitcoin marketcap. Do you think it will be possible even?
During a bull run every shit coin gives you a return and that is the case with Shiba and there are many that genuinely think that it will keep on rising which is silly at its core when you look at the total coins in circulation  Cheesy. If we see these coins surviving the bear market which we should expect next year it will be surprising for me, the positive is that the developers created billions in a short period of time out of thin air  Cheesy.

This is a killer card. Right of the bat, I'm going with Usman, Weili, and, the hardest one to predict, I'd go with Chandler. As for the rest, I love Frankie and he is a God damn workhorse, but Vera is so good. Also, Raging Al will bring the chaos to Bobby. I am hoping Edmen get's back on track. Haven+t been this excited in a hot minute.
In this card i am picking Colby Covington to defeat Kamaru Usman because the first fight was a kickboxing contest and the way in which he was able to clip Kamaru Usman multiple times and they way Colby Covington fought against other opponents out striking them by a huge margin and the first fight was really close and i feel Colby Covington will find a way to win.

Weili Zhang is prone to strikes and Rose Namajunas is a precise striker and she defeated Weili Zhang in her last fight and i am expecting the same result

Justin Gaethje and Michael Chandler will be the fight of the night and Michael Chandler is prone to leg kicks in the past and Justin Gaethje has heavy leg kick in close range and that is how i am hoping he will win in the later rounds.

I think it will be easy for England then any other team in that group. They are a powerful team and one of the contenders to win the T20 worldcup. I do not think Australia would be a problem for them.
England is performing well on the back of Jos Buttler who is in incredible form as he scored a century in the IPL if i remember correctly and continuing that form here with a wonderful 71 not out against Australia and now a century against Sri Lanka when the team really needed and played his shots and i felt like he is the only player who was timing the ball perfectly in this pitch.

Logan has a professional record which is 1 loss. To that, I guess he does have a pro license but he chooses the exhibition fight for money. It would make sense if the rules they make do not include knocking out.
The license to fight is given per fight and the rules change as per difference state commissions, so if Logan Paul have a license to fight in the past, he needs to get one again depending which state he is planning to fight and his opponent also needs to pass the medicals to get a license. Every fighter is taking the risk to make money, so it is not a huge deal to complain that Logan is fighting to make money. In a fight you cannot put restrictions on how hard you can punch, it makes no sense and it is not logic  Cheesy.

The punches are real of course. We are not even sure if Mike will play this as an exhibition. We can never know the guy's mind if he takes this seriously like it's a real fight. Logan seems not really trolling Mike, he is extra careful this time. Mike is impatient with that kind of behavior.
Be it any fight, professional, amateur or exhibition for fun, no one will play around as they could get hurt in a combat sport, if it is any other sport we can conclude that they are playing around for fun but in a combat sport you cannot say that.

Soon democrats in the US will tax those unrealized gains as well and then it won't look as good as it does now.
I am watching all the craziness that is going on in the US and i cannot understand what a demented Biden administration is doing giving away free money to people to break the law and to sit at home without any work and they want to impose high tax on anyone who is working hard. Bunch of idiots who might make an impact globally.

If this proposal becomes law then expect a very sharp drop in the stocks market, not only tesla and that will probably trigger a drop in crypto too. Commies are going full retard on profits.
If it becomes a law then everything will be affected including the cryptocurrency market. I hope it will not pass as a law because these stupid laws implemented in the US can have a global impact as some of the stupid governments around the world will follow them.

Those are the guys that are influenced by the grappling skills of Khabib that when a fighter is already grabbed, they can't just get escape without bruises, choked or limbs got twisted.  
Elite fighters from Chechnya and Dagestan have a strong wrestling base and that is how they fight and Khamzat Chimaev is really fast in his transition and really aggressive and have legit one punch knockout power unlike Khabib Nurmagomedov or Islam Makhachev which makes him more dangerous.

Many of us must have lost to this Blachowicz fight. Doesn't look good when some heavyweight like Glover presses him down flat back. It's got to be the worse loss.
I picked Glover Teixeira to win the fight and the odds were above 3 because it was his last chance to grab the belt and i knew he will be well prepared and he showcased his ground skills and he is not a Heavy Weight, he fought his entire career at Light Heavyweight but his ground skills were far superior than Jan Błachowicz could handle.

India is batting first and as we know the team tha has batted first in this tournament has been losing the game. As per the input that I have, India should win this match. I am still skeptical and till now I believe that my information is correct. Let's see if India wins today.
New Zealand won the toss and sent India to bat and they are yet again struggling as they lost their top three batsman and it is surprising to see that India is experimenting with the team during the World Cup as they completely changed the team composition and the players batting position which is not a good sign during the tournament, they should have done all these experiments before the World Cup and i wont be surprised if New Zealand wins this match.
