Some of you probably saw the news that bitcoin will be fully legal to its citizens in June. What do you guys think will happen to Bitcoin?
Probably we will see some spike on the price, but still though we are in the bull run so it might not last that long. Of course the first one to benefit is their locals, the citizens who have been using bitcoin for a while and so they can really come out from the closet and maybe spearhead bitcoin's transaction on that island. However, I don't know if this will sit well with the Chinese government, as we all know Chinese have a love and heat relationship with bitcoin. And Hongkong being it's legislative nation, might also interfere, just saying. Although there are news that the Chinese government are going to support it and are softening their stance, who knows what might be going on behind. |

Yes, selling pressure at that price range and after that big resistance in front of us as we are hovering around that price range in the last 2 days. Nevertheless, I don't see the bears can't take a hold of the market, still on the hands of the bulls. And there are plenty of time this February to hit that price, so I will not be surprised if bulls are going to push in.
We are seeing the market fluctuate between $25k and $24k. But Bitcoin's target may not be upside or downside. For several days we have seen this state of the market. Looking at the market condition, we can say that we are running in the bull run, maybe the bear market will not be able to swallow us. As for the $30k, I think it might take some time. We need more momentum first. Buyers too have some pressures and could be tired specially in January wherein we have a huge 40% uptick. So let's see first that $25k again and maintain, that is the magic number for this month, in my opinion.
Another new market position we can see in February is $30,000. We have already met our target of $25,000. Its next target is $30,000 which I think will be met by this February.Watch the market, wait, and wait for the recovery of those who invested from the high market. And still though, we haven't seen $25k after that huge spike, on the contrary, the price went sub $24k in the 4-8 hour time frame. But the good news is that price goes up to $24,100 but far from what we wanted to see this February which is $25k. So as others says, the selling pressure is still there and somewhat $25k is a big barrier in front of us. And we are just a week before the end of the month, so it's going to be close if not sure if there is some push to get into that $25k again, in my opinion. |

Why Doge though? what will be the reason that crypto investors are going to pour their money on a meme coin?
So for me it's doesn't make sense, I guess the hype is still around still in this cycle because Elon Musk create it. But as soon as he left Doge, everything crumble down and so is the price.
And for the manipulation that the OP describe, it's not that easy as it sounds. And it's better if Doge will grow naturally, instead of this manipulation and artificial inflation. If it hits $1 on the next bull run then good, if not then we know that it's just a hype and meme coins.

Right now I am excited to see the progress in negotiations between Beterbiev and Bivol because this is the best fight we could have this year if they won't gonna delay it. based on this source, they will gonna try to make it happen in June and I think that would be best for both of them to prepare for real war against each other. SourceI wonder how Bivol will deal with that destructive power of Beterbiev, his few punches will gonna make him lose his defense in just a matter of 3 rounds if Bivol is not careful and ready to take those superpower punches. I hope it happens but I am not so sure it could happen during this summer since the WBC has ordered Beterbiev to fight Callum Smith, and if the aim of Bivol is to make some more money before facing Beterbiev then he could fight Canelo again in September and then fight Beterbiev until 2024, but even if the fight were delayed I think that both of them are confident on getting the win and I do not see them ducking each other for long. Just like what he did against Canelo, he will use volume punching to throw off Beterbiev in the early rounds. Bivol also has a lot of gas tank and he can do it the whole 12 rounds. And just like Yarde did to Beterbiev early, the problem with his is that he doesn't have a huge lungs and when Beterbiev caught him, it's over. So this fight is going to be big, two champions in the LHW class, both Russians. But then again, it might not be easily made as they have different promoters and network affiliations. |

All-Star na pala, anong team tayo, mga kabayan? Team LeBron ba o Team Giannis?
Sa totoo lang, hindi ako excited sa All-Star game ehh hehe, gusto ko na matapos yong para balik na yong laro at makapusta na tayo haha. Biro lang pero madalang na lang kasi akong manood ng all star game simula noong hindi na masyadong nagdedepensahan na para bang biro or warm-up na lang yong ginagawa nila. Panalo yong Team Giannis at ngayong ko lang rin nalaman na first time pa pala nya na nanalo laban sa Team Lebron, marahil siguro wala si Steph Curry kaya nanalo sila. Di rin kita masisisi dyan kabayan kasi ramdam na ramdam kita, di ko na trip ang bagong format ngayon lalo na at parang puro nalang pasikat ang nangyayari. Kumbaga ay parang pinag-isa na nila ang Slamdunk contest and 3-point contest sa iisang game pero mas higit na marami ang participants dahil nga ay meron na itong main starting five at reserves. Alam ko naman na nag-iingat lang sila dahil may mas important games pa silang kakaharapin once mag resume na ulit ang regular games dahil nga sa puntong ito ay mas lalong hihigpit ang mga laro dahil nga iilang games nalang ang natitira bago mag Play-in at playoffs. Pero kahit kunting entertainment lang naman sana, pero wala eh haha. Di bali, sa makalawa ay makakapusta na ulit tayo. 9 games din ang gaganapin, bawing-bawi. Hindi lang pala tayo ay may hindi gusto sa bagong format ng NBA all-star kasi may marami akong nababasa sa social media na nagpapahiwatig ng pagkakadismaya dahil din sa hindi nila nagustuhan yong laro pati nga yong coach ng kabilang team ay tinawag nyang horrible game yong all-star kaya palagay ko may mangyayaring pagbabago na naman siguro next year hehe. Bukas balik na yong mga laro at yong totoong nagbibigay kasiyahan sa ating mga sports bettors. Ako rin, yun din ang comment ko sa kabilang thread, yung format ng game, parang hindi na katulad ng East vs West dati. At last tapos na at balik na tayo sa regular programming hehehe, babawi agad ang NBA sa dami ng laro kaya magandang pulsuhan na habang maaga pa hehehe. Pero mahirap pa rin talaga, maraming magagandang match up na panoorin tayo at tatayaan. Second half na ng regular season at importante ang bawat panalo na. |

Any update on the blog though? has it been created by the OP.
It's interesting to follow though and maybe see his prediction and perhaps follow some on them. The OP has history of big wins and losses as well and that's why his prediction could be a hit or miss. But still though, he might gain some followers in his blogs specially if he will have a good batting average for his MMA predictions.

Funny to say, but I see lots of shared old school all-star games where we can see real competition, as players took pride and aim not
just to entertain the fans but to prove that they can play better than their opponent.
Looking to see that NBA will find new ways to offer to attract more viewers.
I witnessed the past All-Star games and I can really tell the big difference. The old format was much more entertaining compared to the new style. While we can't blame the fact that players now are good at making three-point shots, it's probably the organizers' fault for not ensuring a more competitive All-Star game. Hopefully, things will change next year now that they have heard people's complaints. Seriously, I don't even know what pushed them to change the format of the All-Star and what keeps them from changing it again considering that the fans are not that hyped to see the game anymore because it was more of a circus rather than a serious type of game where the top tiers of each team are facing each other while proving that they are still top of one another. I believe they are hearing a lot of complains already, not just this year's all-star game but in the previous ones as well but still, we kept on seeing the same format year by year.  And I thought that I'm just the one who doesn't like what the All Star has turned out to be with new format in the last couple of years, we see some old school posters here who has the same mentality as mine hehehehe. To be honest, maybe since they change format, I haven't want the All star weekend, although this year it was the Dunk contest that might bring some fans to watch again. But the whole Team Giannis vs Team Lebron? and how they score it per quarter and such? doesn't sit well for him and for the majority of old basketball fans. They should bring back the East vs West that's how we grew watching the All star. |

I do not like it either. I think Mann is really doing good lately and he deserves to start with the Clippers. But I think WB role in the team was discussed during his meeting with Kawhi and PG. So, if they have agreed that WB will start, then that would be it. Hopefully, it will be a good decision.
It could not be a great decision for the Los Angeles Clippers to get a near-retiring Russell WestBrick, but right now I am seeing WestBrick making a great assisting play even though he is not scoring that much if Kawhi and Paul George have spoken his role for the Clippers then I think it is already settled and Russell WestBrick will surely debut for the LA Clippers on Friday, This is Westbrook's last chance in redeeming himself and his NBA career. If he fails to deliver and help the Clippers and be a burden to a team, it might be the beginning of the end for his NBA career. Forget about scoring if it's for Westbrook. The dude can't even shoot the ball. That's why he called Westbrick because he can't shoot the ball. Let the scoring be done by other players. They have Kawhi, PG13, Mann, Gordon, and some bigs as well that. I would love to see Westbrook to be a better player now that he's on a different team already. I'm a bit disappointed on how his career went down from the main star of the Thunder, to the 2nd best player in the Wizards, and he went to the Lakers, he's just an average player and worse, he became a bench player. I hope that Coach Ty Lue already said to Westbrook that you must not shoot the ball, and just focus on assisting and playmaking. I guess there's only one way left to find out and that is to see him playing with the Clippers with the likes of PG and Kawhi who is surely the baller and the alphas of the team. Adding Westbrook to the team may have a difference this time but his role will be the same and that is to give space and assist, just hopefully, this time he can do correctly because I agree, this will be his last chance to redeem himself. If not, then it's safe to assume that he will be in free agency with no teams getting interested. Yes, coach Ty Lue has a big burden now, hehehe, he has 3 superstars and he needs to balance everything and see where Westbrook will fit in the Clippers rotation. He will be more fitting for that role, being the point guard and distributing the ball the way he did before. He will still have the full reason to rectify and make himself look good and maybe he will be extended by the Clippers over next season. So he knows what is in stake with his new team and he should take that responsibility to help and contribute. |

For the latest odds, Caleb Plant is the underdog,  And so it seems that Benavidez power is the overwhelming reasons why he is big favorite, as for Caleb 3:1 underdog good already for a ML bet. I will agree with the odds maker, gonna be hard for Caleb to score a win against a hard hitting David Benavidez who has one mission, to have a fight with Canelo Alvarez in the future. Plant might win some rounds in the beginning because of his experience hehe. However yes, very much similar to Canelo, it will be Benavidez's strength and his physical presence that will cause him to win this fight. It can also be argued that Benavidez has more strength and physical presence than Canelo. In any case it appears that much of the voters have the correct vote. Benavidez by technical knockout or knockout. What round does everyone predict for the knockout? I reckon if could be in the late rounds, when Caleb is already tired and probably soften by Benavidez. I think David is also the stronger of the two, so most likely he is going to push Caleb all throughout the fight. I haven't bet yet, but I probably go with rounds 8-10 for David to finished the job a score a knockout or technical knockout. And yes, our voters here are very intelligent, they voted for who they think are really going to win in this fight. And that's what we appreciate from our boxing community here, hehehe. |

I am also confident of a Donaire KO win but his inactivity plus his age might be a factor if he can't stop Santiago in the first half of the fight. Donaire is not fast anymore but he is accurate although he might become slower with low output in the second half.
Yeah, in his last couple of fights wherein he won, he simply go for the KO from this younger guys. So he might go the same here, chase Santiago early and test him as he doesn't want to go to full 12 rounds because he will run out of gas. Santiago since his draw with Jerwin Ancajas had an 11-1-7 KOs record. His lone defeat was the controversial majority decision of Gary Antonio Russell. He might be underestimated here but he is really capable of beating Donaire by decision.
Right, but we all know, but Donaire will be deliberate in this fight and won't take Santiago lightly as his career is on the line. And because he will be motivated to really win that belt again. I'm looking for his left hook again to finish the fight. |

But once the Monster has adjusted and see what Fulton is doing, he might executed his favorite straight right and then jab his way to the body and soften Fulton and take him out in the later part of the round for a TKO/KO victory.
That's what the Monster is capable of, adjusting on the phase of the fight then boom, will dominate his opponent later on. That's how dangerous he is. Remember when he is struggling against Donaire during their first match, the monster remains calm and tries to keep up with that fight even after suffering already a serious injury in the early rounds. He takes time to adjust then later on, he came back stronger in the later rounds and won. If Fulton will able to put Inoue in a struggling mode in the early rounds, for sure the Monster will able to bounce back in the later rounds, not unless Fulton will keep that early momentum until the end. Yep, that's how he evolved after his very first close against Nonito, he has evolved even more after that. He learn how to phase and then read his opponent and even have the mentality to survived a fight eve if he has that injury already. And we all know after that fight, he beat Donaire by knockout and same with Butler. So he is still getting stronger and smarter in any fight and keeps on progressing. So for sure he will know a thing or two against Fulton because he is a great fighter. Inoue has that ability to absorb every strengths of his opponents. |

I love the "Just Rob the Place" idea, hehehe, and indeed the guy was almost successful, and I guess that's what happen to those who think that they can simply go and rob a casino. The next big problem is how to encash those chips without attracting anyone. And in his case he was under the radar for sometime until he only had those big chips. And I know that casinos are going to chance it once they know that they have been robbed by this big chips. I think another way is when you can bring huge whales in the casinos, or become a "junket" A junket operator forms special relationships with casinos. They promise to recruit and send VIP gamblers to the casino. Meanwhile, the gambling establishment works with the junket on tailoring specific comps to each player’s liking.
In exchange for their services, a junket operator receives commissions from the casino. The commissions are usually worthy investments, especially in the case of high rollers.

I see similar tracking bitcoin apps, it's either you 1. just type your bitcoin address and it will fetch how much bitcoin it had 2. create a account on that app, and save your bitcoin address So there is more danger on option 2 specially privacy as others pointed out. I mean I have no idea why someone will put their addresses on that app in the first place You can just used the old and reliable, https://www.blockchain.com/explorer/addresses/btc/[insert your bitcoin address here]. |

Odds are out as well for this fight,  Obviously, Tony Harrison is a huge underdog in this fight. The over/under is 10.5 rounds, still decent at the over @1.71 as Harrison is a tough fighter to beat. Tim by decision as well @3.20 But if you are a Harrison backer, everything on him is very juicy bet hehehe. |

I encountered a Facebook post from the sports page that John Riel Casimero is now ranked #5 in the Super Bantamweight in WBO.
But checking the current rankings, he is still not ranked by the WBO and still, only WBC ranked him. I don't know if that's just a made-up article lol.
He is, as per the official WBO website, and it seems it was a recent update on their rankings.  https://wboboxing.com/rankingsI would be happy if that happened since Casimero is now getting an inch closer to a possible title match.
WBO recognized Casimero as he is is a one time WBO bantamweight champion and that is good news for Casimero handlers. As you can see on the standings, Azat and Nery just had their fights, so most likely Casimero next fight will be against those names, hopefully it will be against #2 Ra'eese Aleem. |

As much as I wanted Mark Magsayo to win, looking at their statistics and how Vargas exposed the weakness of Magsayo, I think this will be a hard fight for Magsayo. Figueroa is also a knock out puncher with higher percentage KO than Magsayo. Figueroa has height and reach advantage. This is where I can see the problem, since Vargas exposed the weakness of Magsayo, there is a chance that Figueroa will do the same tactic. I hope Magsayo has new strategy and technique to bring at the table and be able to work around those disadvantages and win the fight.
I'm sure that Team Magsayo will have a good plan going into this fight as they don't want the outcome in the Vargas fight to be duplicated. Every fighter has its own style that i think Figueroa is different than that of Vargas style that uses his height advantage over his opponents and one good thing about that Vargas fight, Magsayo wasn't dominated and Vargas even went down to the canvass in round nine. As i said this fight is 50-50 for me and i'm rooting for Magsayo so i hope that Team Magsayo will exploit every weakness that Figueroa had. BTW, odds for Magsayo ML have dropped to 2.95, i think this will go south further when the fight comes nearer. It means that money is already pouring in for Magsayo are early as when the odds are listed. Which also means that gamblers are taking advantage of that early odds for ML because it is very attractive. And as I have advise, better be betting early, hehehe. And even if there is a slip drop on the odds, still high in my opinion. We might be in for a surprise hear if Magsayo will win in this fight as he is 3:1 underdog. |

It will probably zip their mouths and lock it if ever the Clippers will be in the championship.
He will not be a burden but will be a big threat, they don't really need shooters because that's covered by Powell, PG13, Gordon, and Batum. They will need his aggressive skills to spread the floor more and give the shooters a good look at the three-point line.
It's too early to tell if the hype will match the reality. The excitement was high when Westbrook was traded to the Lakers, but it could end up being a disaster, so we cannot assume that he will do well with the LA Clippers. They now have their own Big 3, and it's the first time that Leonard has played with two real superstars, so there will be an adjustment period. Nevertheless, it's worth risking a bet on the Clippers to win a championship. I think that's the good case. Clippers are already set with their own starters and now they are just patching holes like their second team who had been stagnant. They want to add new players in it and Westbrook might be the one. Seriously, let us stop under rating Westbrook, that guy is a hall of famer because of his triple doubles. And he can still play ball even at his age. If I am the Clippers management I won't waste time and money looking at the 10 day contract. This could be the best solution they could offer. I go with you, Clippers can use Russ better than Wall. He got the height and the quickness which can be a good threat for their offense but also with their defense. Yes, but if the end result is the same though, then the Clippers didn't add anything, or worst, might affect the Clippers chemistry. Proper adjustments and good rotation might be the key once they started to bring Russ
with George and Leonard.
If all the stars will build good chemistries this Clippers team will have a good competitive
chance to chase for the title,.
Again, I will just go with teams like Clippers who are in the 4th position already on what adjusted they have to make since they are doing good. The best adjustment they had was to make Kawhi play and not go on restrictive minutes. And then he regain his reform, even play good away from home. I think Kawhi and PG as duo are making the results for the Clippers already. |

In this forum and other forums where gambling is one of the topics of discussion, one of the recurrent topics is people who write about how their gambling addiction has ruined their lives. We usually encounter topics like "Gambling ruined my life," "I lost all my life savings to gambling," "I gambled away my entire salary," etc. Then they go on to tell a sad tale. It makes me wonder: why do gamblers tend to wait until they have suffered a catastrophic loss or a string of losses before quitting or seeking help?
Well in gambling, regrets are usually in the end. So when everything is working ok and you are winning in the beginning, you might not think of quitting to be honest. And so you go on, whether noticing that you are being eaten alive by this casinos as you continue to deposit and lost big money and then the big excuse, "gambling ruined my life" scenario in the end. Wherein you could have prevent it if you have total control of your self, but you chooses not to because it's enjoyable in the beginning. |

They have been in trade wars for years now and obviously, it has an effect on both countries. But if they started a full scale war then everyone will be affected, specially countries in the South East Asia (specially I live in Philippines wherein our government are still undecided, but it looks like the newly government will be in the US side), they will be torn apart.
For the global economy, it might hit harder as well, it will disrupt the world economy and it's hard to recovery if the war lasted for years.
but we will all know which sides are countries are going to take here.
That's a really strange situation not just with Philippines but with multiple Chinese neighbors specially when you look at the world map and see that all the neighbors have been slowly choosing a pro-US policy. Philippines, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea are the main ones that are challenging China in East and South China sea for US! Yes, but I can only speak from here, I mean the last government play it's cards very well. The Duterte administration, was somewhat in the middle as far as it's policy on US and China is. But as we have a new government lead by the former dictator son's, and his name namesake, Ferdinand Marcos Jr, it's was a total shift in the policy against the Chinese. I could understand competition with China and resistance against Chinese influence and growth but to go full anti-China and becoming friendly with US that we all know will abuse all these countries for their own benefit and at their cost makes no sense.
True, but probably with the situation right now? government around neighboring South East Asia might have to choose between the lesser of two evil and that could mean they are in the side of United States. |
