I don't want to download and check out some random apps that have malware inside.

I also think that it is hard to expect someone to offer a premium stream for free, so you should definitely be very careful with all those apps that are offered in Google Play - especially if we know that there are a lot of them that contain malware. I have personally seen the case of an infected smartphone which, after downloading the sports app, became practically useless because app could not be removed in any way, and it produced countless advertisements and redirections to very bad pages.

My brother also paid for an IPTV service to stream sports on his Android home TV, but I think they are illegal and will likely get interrupted quite often since the broadcaster is actively trying to block services like that.

If he did not buy from someone officially and receives a monthly bill to his home address, then he has an illegal service. Some IPTV providers even have special apps in which a VPN is built in so that the ISP cannot block the service.

99k would be a total disaster for mining side of the game.
Miners need 125-145k not to be crushed.

It seems to me that a few months ago you mentioned much lower numbers when it came to the miner's earnings compared to the halving of the reward - maybe I'm wrong, but if the minimum price for the survival of miners will have to be $125k+, what will happen if even after the new ATH, which can be anywhere above that a correction of say 70% occurs?

Somehow I don't believe that everyone will stop mining BTC, but maybe only the big ones will survive?

I come across more and more members who shill BG and projects related to that platform, and I wonder if it might be justified to filter every link and name of that platform in some way? I know that there are certain words that are "forbidden" and instead of which the forum automatically places a certain link, so I hope that the admin and the forum administration will consider this situation and remove such things from the forum.

I have already reported some members because of that and as far as I can see, some of them have become inactive (perhaps they have been banned), but there are obviously too many of them.

What I would especially warn the admin is to pay attention to the fact that these members are getting +karma from someone, and I doubt that that alt farm has at least one or more Senior rank accounts for that.

Let's look at just one example of how they operate:

User @Joseph Lee opened the topic - and if we look at his post history, we can see that he is BG shill, while another member (@MCcabe Rory) joins the conversation who is also a BG shill. His post history link.

Evidence was published on BTT that BG as a company hires and pays people to promote them in this way -> Innovative Shilling

I also sometimes experience such a warning, but I attributed it to the fact that I use Tor and that it is possible that there is someone else who also uses the same browser and was connected to the same node (same IP) before me. Given that I also sometimes have xx minutes between posts, somehow it doesn't seem to me that it is the limit mentioned by the admin.

I mean anything popular is bound to be targeted by malicious actors. Regarding verifying install, idk technical aspects but blue wallet website has PGP key mentioned [1], can you verify install using it?

[1] https://bluewallet.io/pgp/[/size]

I can't tell you if it is possible to verify the BlueWallet file before installation with that PGP key, because I haven't tried - but that key has the note "PGP Key for BlueWallet maintainers", which could mean that it is used for the possibility of encrypted communication between BlueWallet maintainers.

If someone has no choice but to look for online streaming, he always has to face things like poor quality and frequent transmission interruptions, and of course countless advertisements. In my opinion, it is still better to pay for legal IPTV or satellite TV, or try one of the IPTV services that offer tens of thousands of programs for relatively little money.

On this link you have all kinds of sports, but I can't say how good and quality it is - test it and maybe it's what you're looking for

I wonder how far we have already fallen into the abyss of AI when you need to explain to someone that AI coins are actually nothing but the names of some altcoins with the mark AI? Who would have thought that the label AI will start selling everything from TVs, mobile phones, cars, computers to cryptocurrencies, and that people will actually agree to pay more because they think they are getting something more - and in fact, the more we use AI, the more stupid we will become.

Many will disagree, but all that has happened in recent years regarding AI is obviously only the beginning of something that in most SF content ends very badly for the human race.

@babo, whoever wants to prevent unwanted situations simply has to think outside the box - because that's the only way to reduce all possible risks. Most people use paper as a backup, but it is no secret that paper is something that is not resistant to fire, water, chemicals, physical damage... although there are special types of paper that can have some improved properties.

That's why there are metal plates made of steel on which any important information can be engraved, and when stored in this way, we can save what is important to us. Of course, this is not the ultimate solution, because any backup is subject to theft or loss, and therefore it is necessary to have at least two backups in different locations if possible.
