Of course not. The media, banks, Wall Street, etc., are all owned by people who have little to gain and a lot to lose from bitcoin's growing dominance. They will never portray it in a good light.
Reporting stuff like this without any investigation is pretty poor journalism, though. You expect it from all the trash that passes as crypto "news" sites, but you expect better from corporations like the BBC. It is an article funded by a bank and based on assumptions with no hard data. It is the equivalent of Philip Morris funding a study saying that if you smoke you look 30% cooler.
They will, when their bosses or people who pay them their salaries finally get behind Bitcoin,,, and I say finally because there is no other option but to accept. You can fight it but you cannot win something that cannot be killed. We only have to look and ask JP Morgan bank employees or even Nasdaq how quickly things changed and how they also had to change their tune  |

I can confirm that he doesn't think he will.
I can add a second confirmation that all people on all sides of fences are continuing to remain on their respective sides of fences. So here we all are, needing each other to validate each other,,, without one side there cannot be an opposing side. So I welcome his salutations and wait to see which side is right (and being right is never permanent!). |

Yes,,, thank you! I saw that and I will try to continue as before, only the problem (well,,, my problem of course) is almost often the game picked is very late for me, but if I work late then it is possible for me, good that we have many people to watch for it. Weekends are indeed very fun when there is so much going on,,, either you make money or you do not  |

Why complicating things, just click on fixtures from left side menu. You can see fixtures from all your pools with entered predictions in green color and missing predictions with text pick now in red color. Could not be more simple. Screenshot if somebody is interested: https://imgur.com/iLDms1sI am always putting my predictions few days before the gameweek starts and then tweaking when the day comes if I remember to do it. I did not see my dashboard as complicated, because it gives me an overview of the next 72 hours,,, so maybe your way is better than my way, then good for you. I mean, if I go to Superbru dashboard is the very first screen that shows to me anyway, I thought that was already very simple. Fixture or dashboard you still need to force refresh depending on your settings I mean,,, how complicated is Superbru actually |

It depends on their goal and what they think is the purpose of them buying BTC. It's not like they didn't study it and just decided to buy it. For sure, they have a long-term plan for their investments, and with cryptocurrencies, many countries flourish as well. Imagine having cryptocurrency be legal to you and be used in day-to-day transactions and other countries seeing it. I think it would attract more people to buy and use it as currency.
Nobody questions governments when they buy random stock overseas or invest in high risk mutual funds that are sold to them from private companies or even other governments. People should be happy their government is diversifying and investing into something that cannot be manipulated like stocks or funds and is resistant to wars and other disasters. |

Using a p2p exchange that requires KYC defeats the point of using p2p imo. If you want to avoid mass data collection then Binance and Coinbase should be the ones to avoid. You should be directly trading with another person with minimal data collection as possible because p2p is usually more expensive in fees then centralized exchanges. I only use p2p because there is no data collection usually I would recommend changing to a different platform and avoid giving your information up. I am not sure why Binance has one of the best reputations for exchanges because imo they have been one of the worst at handling compromised coins and have made mistakes which should not be happening for a exchange which holds millions of dollars worth of Bitcoin on their platform.
I do not really agree. People have been doing p2p for a long time, not just for Bitcoin, but for other currencies, simply so that they can set their own fees, and earn or buy/sell in between the spread of regular brokers. P2P like Localbitcoin was really big and still so popular in some countries especially where I am because you are not looking exactly for anonymous people but actual people (besides if you do p2p you still see their name sometimes depending on your method anyway). |

To be honest I didn't watch much James Rodríguez when he played for Everton, but I watched a lot of James Rodríguez's performance
in the Columbia national team. This player actually has good vision and skill, but maybe James Rodríguez doesn't fit in with the new Everton coach.
So he decided to leave Everton, but at the age of James Rodríguez who is not young anymore and we know a football career is not long.
So it's a good decision to move to a club that can provide a large salary for retirement plans. So he can enjoy his life well after retirement.
Moreover, we know that the team from Qatar has good finances, meaning that if it is true that he play for Al Rayyan SC, James Rodríguez is
sure to get a good salary offer.
Yes,,, I think this was a calculated move for him. Just like many South Americans who play football,,, they know themselves and they know their future is limited. Everton is almost the last stop for English football unless you want to play in Championship later, but if Qatari teams want you and you know they play well, and you can still win trophies for new clubs and Asian champions league, why not? We cannot blame players for thinking of their careers. |

This is what Arsenal did for years, and they did it for like nearly 20 years and made so much money and built young dynamic and running all game without getting tired teams. Now they are faaaar away from that which causes the team to not be as good as they used to be and look like headless chicken running around aimlessly.
This is what Wenger did actually,,, and I bet you the Gunners fans who wanted him out and even made him feel so unwelcome in the stadium with their chants,,, now they wish they had him back again. Same now as us at Spurs who wish Poch was back. I am "happy" because Spurs is the natural enemy of Arsenal but even I knew he was always doing the right thing. Now Arsenal may face many seasons without Champions League. This is what happens when you are ungrateful and want unrealistic things for your club. |

I have news for you. Dollars or your <X> fiat currency are not taken out of circulation either when you spent them (although they can be manually destroyed, just as amounts of cryptocurrency can be "burned" including Bitcoins if devs wanted to do that).
You are right. The only time any kind of fiat is ever taken out of circulation is when the banks decide to replace them,,, to my understanding this is usually when they print new notes with new security, when they redominate or when they destroy bank notes that are too old/damaged. And this is always replaced, so circulation never goes down. In fact, saving dollars in fiat in bank account causes new money to be printed as they always want money to be circulating in the economy. Hence when you save $100 in a bank, and the bank has $100 in credit, it loans out $100 to someone else. That borrower withdraws $100, your $100 still sits in the bank, but the bank orders $100 more new notes to be printed to give to the borrower. This is fiat in a nutshell. $100 becomes $200 like magic. |

I don't believe they're all of them; most of them include some sort of strategy, which eliminates the possibility that NFT games are a form of gambling. Consider Axie Infinity: it's a skill-based game with a chance element in the form of cards, critical hits, and opponent skill, but it's not gambling.
Skill-based at first maybe,,, but like most games like nowadays the grinder will always win. Spend more time (or more money) and you get more cards, more skills,,, and are always stronger than the guy who only logs in once per day. If this is not gambling, that is, putting in your time in the hopes of gaining that <1% super rare skill on a loot box, I do not know what is  |

So it seems like the ICO era has not really taught any lessons to people.
Spend money on NYT billboard = great exposure and great visibility. So more token buyers maybe,,, but does it attract any new users? Utility is what makes the project succeed not buyers. And NFT needs artists buy in and collectors buy in.

I got too excited I accidentally saw an update on chat and thought it was Blackjack I am back and will try to make the daily Soccer Blackjacks:) Only as usual the times are so late for me but it looks like we have many good people ready to help each other out. It seems I missed in my short week a lot of updates. New rules, 6 busts and one Blackjack! WOW. |

What was I thinking when I believed that Liverpool will have a hard game yesterday ? Sometimes I forget that they have same players for 3 years now and I think they can play with each other with eyes closed at this point because they simply know every positions of the other player and the passes are simpler than ever for them.
Liverpool actually did have a hard game. Result - wise it looked clean, but Liverpool scored all 3 goals from corners and did not really create that much compared to other games this season. Statistically it also seemed like we dominated but even Klopp said that we grinded the result - which is also really important and shows the character of the team. Considering the heavy rotations in defence, I'm really satisfied with our performance - keeping a clean sheet in these circumstances is really difficult. But actually boltz it is true they have the same players for 3 years but if you see the recent games they are not playing with those same players. In defence last season somebody pointed out they had 15 different pairings. Shocking for a big team. In offence this season they are trying out Dioga Jota in the front 3 and Firmino is not playing? Even on the right now is that new guy I see, and Wijnaldum is not in the middle anymore so you had a point in thinking it might be hard:) |

Guys, I don’t understand what’s the matter ... I remember exactly that I chose the final score for the Tottenham - Chelsea match, and when I saw the second goal I went to Superbru and was a little stunned that the site tells me that I didn’t make my choice.
Happened to me a lot of times actually,,, some picks in the middle of selections are not saved because of server load. Make a bookmark of your dashboard and force refresh it from your browser after making all your selections, it will show you any picks that did not save for the next 72 hours. This is my most useful part of Superbru checking:) |

I got Vardy, Toney and even Teemu Pukki Not enough! Who the hell is pictured on Majestic 7 graphic fo Man Utd? Looks like Chicharito to me but he is not playing there for ages Sterling for City and Son for Spurs are very easy to recognize, than I had to think a bit but I can say with some certainty that there are also Richarlison for Everton and Jimenez for Wolves. I want to say Kante for Chelsea but not so good graphic plus there were at least 5 better choices to pick from Chelsea. Arsenal guy looks familiar but I can't place him. I always assumed that was Ronaldo because of the hairstyle and the earring, but I just realized the picture was probably before he joined so I also do not know who that is:) Kante for Chelsea is for sure because of his height! Arsenal is of course Saka who forget him from EURO |

I think crypto domain is completely incompatible with the current world because it’s a fresh system. Instead of minor amendment, it fundamentally formats and reconstructs the earth. That's crucial in the real liberation of ideology and the true accomplishment in the innovation of encrypted digital currency projects.
I personally think it is pointless to talk about crypto 2.0 or 3.0 or whatever,,, I mean even in 2019 already people talked about Tokens 3.0 with defi and in the end it is all the same thing with new ways and different tech. As you say, most new coins and chains are only minor amendments, nothing changes the fundamentals that Bitcoin is a timestamp ledger that is secure and that gets longer, and is not controlled by a single person. And that maybe is incompatible with the very basic principles of real life economy. But we are all using it correct? |

I gave this a lot of thought over the years,,, and I have to admit, I care about a certain amount of privacy, but I do not (yet) have the compulsion to keep every single thing private. My BTC address for example is public, and I do KYC on one or two exchanges (because forced to) but if possible I try very hard not to give my documents elsewhere because the legal situation in my country is not clear. I like that BTC does give you freedom to expand or contract on your privacy |

Back from vacation and I see I did an Oopps I dropped to 11th place after the matches so far I also had Spezia game at 1-1 until they ruined it by winning, so I guess a lot of us got screwed over by that one,,, Mourinho has his first defeat also so he must now be tempted to do what he did at Spurs. Take a lead and try to defend. |

Hi guys,,, I asked previously but no one answered, I have tried looking on all Polygon website and see no answer there.
Do you have a portal to mint NFTs on Ethereum,,, which means making ERC721 tokens on ETH network,,, but using Matic bridge on Polygon and could you show me a guide link?
Maybe I am not phrasing it correctly but the idea is to mint 100s of NFTs but without paying the high gas fees.
