Tens of thousands of Nepal cricket fans at the Tribhuvan University International Cricket Ground, Kirtipur staying on behind heavy rain. The final match of the ACC Men's Premier Cup is currently ongoing between Nepal and the United Arab Emirates. You will never find any fans for United Arab Emirates, because they don't have any nationals in their team.

It will be a great injustice to the Nepal fans in case this match gets washed out. Because right now, UAE is at 106/9 after 27.3 overs. Without the rains, Nepal would have won already.
Video: https://twitter.com/Xhiuzan_/status/1652931879736320001
The match is with Nepal team. Nowhere it is possible to see such a level of support from the audience. Even at the heavy rain thousands of audience with umbrella in hands shows how good is their support to the national team. Seeing this scenario surely the Nepal team players will get much more confidence and the spirit to win the finals. I'm sure there won't be injustice sharing the trophy.

It was actually really great to see so much support for the Nepal cricket team. I have to say to the ICC that this is what happens when a team with native players plays well and shows promise. This type of support was never going to be shown to a team that is made up of foreign players. And that is exactly the reason why we see a big difference between the support of Nepal and the UAE. I understand that it is not the ground of UAE. It is the home ground of Nepal.

In my opinion, investment will always be risky because there are many unexpected things, the higher the opportunity for profit, the greater the chance for loss, many people think that cryptocurrencies are the fastest way to success and profit, but the fact is that many people lose money because of wrong predictions .
Yes, it is very difficult to make futures because the crypto market is not stable. But if you invest in the right currency like bitcoin and hold it for the long term, the risk is low and the profit is high. There are many investors who invest greedily without practicing the market, then they are at risk and if they choose the right currency to reduce the risk of investment the profit will be more and the loss will be less.

There is no such thing as high return with low risk, if bitcoin is low risk, then why don't you sell all your assets to invest in bitcoin, but only invest with money you can accept to lose? Everything is risky and the future of bitcoin remains a question mark. Don't be too subjective and blind when investing in bitcoin.

I will be greedy, I will choose both jobs because having multiple sources of income is a good thing not a bad thing. It's not easy to get a job with a stable salary these days, so don't give up on it. As for trading, you can do it in your spare time, it's not forced like other jobs. As long as you can arrange the time, I believe you can still operate both well.

I tried googling to find additional information about the op's story, but couldn't find anything. So I join others in saying that a link to a source would be much appreciated. If it's a true story, it's wonderful to see that Bitcoin was useful in an unexpected situation. However, I don't quite understand why online banking wasn't available (even though the Internet connection was okay, I assume, considering that Bitcoin could be sent and received)... I remember some stories from my own country, from the early days of the Russian full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Some people used Bitcoin to purchase a car, for example. So I do understand how a situation similar to the one described by the op could present itself, but I'd like to see more information about the Sudan-Nigeria case.

The news of Nigerian students trapped in the desert because the transport company didn't receive their full payment is true and can be viewed from this link. But there is no information to verify the story of using Bitcoin to pay the drivers. And the drivers had dealings with the Nigerian government and not individual students. As much as I know also, North African countries are the most unfriendly nations to Bitcoin. Countries like Algeria, Egypt, Tunisia, and Morocco placed an absolute ban on Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Although Sudan didn't ban cryptocurrency transactions absolutely, the Central Bank discourages the citizens of Sudan from using crypto.

I know Bitcoin can do what fiat cannot do as we saw in Ukraine when the banking sector was affected and people donated with Bitcoin to Ukraine. I just hope that such kind gestures will be given to the people of Sudan because they need help.

From what you said, I don't believe this story even more. Maybe this story was created by OP to exaggerate the greatness of bitcoin rather than a true story with real meaning. Many people asked for a link to the article, but he still couldn't provide anything. Bitcoin is better than fiat in some cases but it is not god that can solve everything in the world.

It was humanity's dream to make a money without working ,the bitcoin miner can give u money  without work bitcoin, and all other digital currencies have achieved this dream as well.



If making money from bitcoin without labor, that is not necessarily a good thing. It will make people become inactive and sedentary, causing more consequences than benefits. For me, labor is still something that should be maintained because only work can make people think and be more creative. If we are too lazy and just love to make money without working, the world will soon be ruined.

Today is another big one for Galatasaray. It is huge either way. If Galatasaray loses it, the table is getting really close at the top. I think that this game is going to be a tough one for Gala and Besiktas doesn't really lose anything no matter what. They can go all out and try to take the full three points. The real showdown could still happen when the game is played between Fener and Gala as that is still to be played as well. It's a close season this year.
This match will definitely be an important match for Galatasaray because if they really want the championship, they need to win a match like this. I am a Beşiktaş fan, but I see Galataray as the favorite in this match because there are some important missing players in our team. Ghezzal, who shaped the team's attacks and formed the pass connections within the team, suffered an injury before this match. I've also read news that our new defensive signing, Omar Colley, also suffered an injury in this last practice. Unfortunately, bad news comes one after another for us... Sad

As Galatasaray is fighting for the title, every match is very important for Galatasaray. Besiktas is now one of the strongest teams in the Super Lig. The team is third in the table. They are in very good form. It is very difficult for Galatasaray to win this match. If they win this match, they will go 6 points ahead of Fenerbahçe. But I think Galatasaray will lose points in this match. Maybe the match will be a draw or Besiktas will win.
107  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: April 30, 2023, 01:33:52 AM
Atalanta team managed a tough win away against torino and those three points allowed them to push forward into the sixth position past inter who now has no choice but to win so they can get back into the top four a draw will only allow them to take back their sixth spot but they will be facing lazio one of the best performing teams this season so this will be a tough game and can go either way.
Today's matches were hard. Roma and Milan one was pretty interesting in the overtime with the first goal scored by Roma in the first three minutes of the overtime followed five minutes later by Milan's one! Milan were lucky they could get a tie and get one point.
Atalanta got 3 points after defeating Torino 2 - 1. The results right now are good for Inter since once they win, they will be back in the 4th spot and Atalanta will lose its European spot.

In today's match, I got my expected result and won the bet. My prediction for Milan vs Roma match will be a draw. The match ended in a 1-1 draw but the match was very exciting. Both teams scored in extra time after 90 minutes. Both teams scored in the last minute and the match was a draw. On the other hand, Atalanta was the favorite against Torino. But Torino was not a weak opponent. However, their goal in this match was to draw. I would say Atalanta was very lucky to get the full three points in this match.
108  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: April 30, 2023, 01:19:14 AM
The game between Hertha Berlin and Bayern Munich is very important for Dortmund because they lose two points this week and if Bayern Munich gets the full three points from this game they can take back their position in the first place of the table but since Bayern Munich had an unstable situation lately I won't be surprised if they lose points in this game against Hertha Berlin.
It will be very embarassing if bayern will not able to win against hertha.



Bayern has been favoring by bookies and the odds for bayern are very small. To be honest, im not interesting to put money in this game caused by the odd for bayern is very small. Hertha can give bayern surprise anytime. Bayern is now facing a huge problem with its performance.
Tuchel was not even able making bayern to be a better club compared with naglesmann. Will hertha push the game to be drawn?
I guess that bavarians will be blaming tuchel again if the result will be draw. Im waiting for the result from this match. The odds of bayern are not worth to me.

Bayern Munich's performance may have deteriorated slightly. But Bayern Munich is definitely the favorite against Hertha. Hertha is not a strong team. The team is in the last position on the table. And if they can get points against Munich it will be a coincidence. Bayern Munich have won their last 5 matches against Hertha. Munich dominated every match and won. Hopefully, we will see the dominance of Munich in today's home match as well. And I expect to see at least 3 goals from Munich players.
109  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: April 30, 2023, 12:52:32 AM
I was wondering whether Lens ever played in the Champions League yet? Ah ok, they did play in the Champions League but that was in 98/99. It is about time after 25 years to find their way back to international soccer tournaments now. I think it will come down to their duel with Marseille as well. They have a solid five points advantage over Monaco now and should avoid losing games. I think even if they tie two or three games they are probably still good to go until the end of the season. I don't think that Monaco will win all of those games.

It is highly unlikely that Monaco will be able to move into second place in the points table. The team is 6 points behind Marseille and 5 points behind Lens. And I think it is almost impossible to reduce the gap to 6 points at the moment because every team's performance is pretty stable now. In Marseille, the team will play against Lens and Lyon in their next 6 matches. Even with a win against Lens, I think second place in the table is guaranteed for Marseille. This match is very important for Champions League qualification.

Of course gambling never has a chance of winning and very few people can make money gambling. But I think that if you invest the amount of money that you gamble with, you can hope for something good in the future. Gambling becomes an addiction which can never be quitted and if there is no money at one time, even after taking a loan from various banks, if he gambles, then if he loses, then darkness will come in his life. So I think it's best to invest in crypto and keep it for a long time, the future will be bright

But when you are addicted to investing, you are no different from a gambling addict. Everything in life has a limit and if you exceed the limit, everything will have a bad ending. For me, financial investment is no different from gambling because there is no guarantee you will win 100%. If you get addicted to it and invest with borrowed money, you will end up as tragic as gambling.

we are working to earn money, we are living to earn happiness , in which i mean? work and Enjoy that is what life means .

 there are so many people that trying to earn money and bank their funds and when they grow old so as being ready but the problem is when they turn into right ages to enjoy? in this time is really short and they die without even compeltely enjoying their fruits.


I would rather work now and enjoy  my lifestyle than dying with my money that I never enjoyed.
.
but of course we must not spend too much , and learn to bank some.

I like your lifestyle, we try our best, work hard, we should enjoy our achievements. Excessive saving and dying leaving that money for the next generation is a waste. I mean, if I can work for money, I want my kids to be like me. I don't like them relying on inheritance and being lazy. Life is working and earning your own money, that's a life worth living.
112  Economy / Economics / Re: How much longer until paper money is no longer in circulation? on: April 30, 2023, 12:13:50 AM
Today, 90% of the central banks are developing a central bank digital currency (CBDC) and 62% are experimenting at the proof of concept stage. The share of countries developing a CBDC or running a pilot doubled from 14% to 26% between 2020 and 2021.


Development and testing is one thing, and successful adoption is another. Just like they used to apply online banking but did not succeed as expected, until now, people still use cash. It can be said that paper money will be phased out at some point, but that will not happen anytime soon, even if CBDCs exist.
113  Economy / Economics / Re: Look for what to invest, not what to eat on: April 30, 2023, 12:10:08 AM
In my personal opinion, invest when we are ready to invest, don't invest when we are not ready to fulfill our primary needs first, then we start investing because investment should not be arbitrary, investment must use idle money because investment assets will grow in the future.
I think it is very difficult to start investing but have not met our needs in life

Every person has different needs in life. Therefore, many people, no matter how much they earn, will never have money left to invest. Sooner or later the needs of life will lead to the destruction of all cash reserves. That's why smart investing is a necessity, otherwise you just can't survive.

It's not that they don't have money to invest, it's that they don't want to invest and don't believe in it. So they use their money to spend on daily living until they run out of money. What they don't realize is that there comes a time when they get old and can't make any money, but by the time they realize, it's too late.
114  Economy / Economics / Re: it's so risky! on: April 30, 2023, 12:04:45 AM
It is not right to invest in everything but there are some coins that definitely get profit if you invest in them. It turns out that if you invest 80% of your money in total and save the next 20% then I think it will be better for you. So you invest in investment worthy coins and try to hold for long term.

Apart from BTC and ETH, I really don't see any 3rd coins that are definitely profitable for us. Everyone wants to invest in good coins to make a profit, but the problem is that no one knows which is a good coin, research and evaluation are only a part, it cannot guarantee anything. And for a newbie like OP, I don't think it's good to invest 80% of the savings, instead, I recommend him to invest 20%, and the remaining 80% is savings.
I think we should invest in btc and ETH. Even if we gain small amount in them we don't have much risk of losing money. But op thinking is totally wrong if he invests 20% instead of 80% it is better for him.  will be If his money is lost then there is no risk of losing all the money. We have to invest little by little if we invest all the money at all then we have a big chance of losing money. So we have to think before investing and then invest

To be fair, altcoins or memes give better returns than bitcoin and eth, hundreds of times more returns than BTC and ETH give you. But the higher the return, the higher the risk, so many people don't dare to invest in altcoins and start talking bad about it. But if someone is brave enough and willing to take the risk, then investing in altcoins is the right thing to do.

Galatasaray are very likely to become the champions for now and the result they will get against Besiktas is going to be really important on this road. If they don't let Fenerbahce get closer to themselves then I think it is over for Fenerbahce about their title chase. Galatasaray have built a really solid squad so far too. It is like a preparation phase for the Champions League.

Galatasaray's chances of becoming champions are very high. The main reason for this is their lack of regular performance at their main rival Fenerbahçe. Both Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe have dropped points in their last 5 matches. The points gap between these two teams is 6. And since Galatasaray is in very good form now. Since this team has been consistently performing well, it can be assumed that, if there will not any mishaps happen, this season's champions will be Galatasaray.
116  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: April 28, 2023, 06:49:29 PM
VfL Bochum   1-0   Dortmund

I wouldn't be at all surprised if Dortmund drop a point in today's match. Because Dortmund conceded a goal in just 5 minutes. I didn't think Dortmund would concede a goal so quickly. Anthony Losilla's goal gave Bochum a 1-0 lead.

If Dortmund want to win today's match then they must play an attacking strategy. If they play defensively then they won't be able to win this match. With Bochum leading 1-0, Bochum will now tighten their defense. It will be difficult for Dortmund to break down Bochum's defense now. Even so, I will expect Dortmund to win this match. Because I am betting on Dortmund to win today's match.

Edit: Dortmund managed to equalize the match 1-1 after only 2 minutes. Karim Adeyemi scored the goal for Dortmund. Adeyemi scored from Sebastien Haller's pass.

Dortmund will try their best to win today's match. They conceded a goal in just 5 minutes due to carelessness. Dortmund should have performed cautiously from the start of the match. I don't think the Bochum team is strong. But if Dortmund's defense is weak then there is a possibility of not getting 3 points in this match. The match is also likely to be a draw. Dortmund will definitely need to attack a lot if they want to get full points in the match. Dortmund's attack is strong. Hopefully, Dortmund's players will be able to break down Bochum's defence.
117  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2022/23 Season on: April 28, 2023, 06:35:03 PM
sevilla is favourite for the cup, beating the best team in the cup and getting to the far, means that they are favourite, juventus is another contender.  both team can meet in the finals. they have been outstanding in the league. but i wish Sevilla wins
Since Sevilla got rid of the more favored team, it's only natural that they become another favourite, even though in the domestic league they are far from what was expected. Juventus must be careful with this team, because Sevilla can surprise them at any time. Manchester United were their victims before, although that was supported by Manchester United themselves who did not perform well in that match and made many mistakes.
This sevilla teams is like a green snake in a green grass, I never thought that they could eliminate Manchester united but once I saw the flaws thid Manchester united team did in the first leg an atom of misbelief crept into my mindset and to my greatest surprise they were undone by this Spanish team that is obviously underperforming in their league. Now Juventus have been match with them again and they are clearly under dogs but can definitely surprise the old lady's of Turin.

The Sevilla team is very clever. This season's Sevilla team has not been strong. And their performance on the Europa League platform wasn't too good either. Everyone expected the team to exit from the group stage. But to everyone's surprise, the team qualified for the semi-finals by defeating the likes of Manchester United. And I wouldn't be at all surprised if Sevilla beat Juventus in the semi-finals. The Sevilla team has this ability. I now think that Sevilla will win against Juventus in the semi-final as well.

The match between Lecce vs Udinese in the Italian League has started for quite some time. So far neither team has scored a goal. It seems that we will see a goal at some site very soon. The goalkeeper of the Udinese team has played very well in almost every match. Today's  If Udinese wants to win the match then they have to perform well and score goals. Lecce team players are trying hard to score but they can't score any goals. If neither team can score any goals in this match then maybe it will be a draw in the end. 
I considered Udinese as the favorite in this match. Because the ninth team in the points table is Udinese. And Lecce is 16th in the table. Also, the performance of the Lecce team is very poor this season. They have won only 6 matches this season. And the team is still not in good form. At the same time, the defense of the Lecce team is not strong.

But I don't see the expected good performance from Udinese players. Their performance is very poor. Against opponents like Lecce, Udinese's players play poorly defensively. After 35 minutes, Udinese had 62% of the ball but managed only one shot. They are trying to keep their defense strong. If Udinese perform like this, I think the match is more likely to be a goalless draw.

Udinese's performance was not good in this match. But I don't expect them to be defeated. Udinese were favorites in this match. But they can't win. Their performance was very slow. I don't know why Udinese played such a strategy against a team as weak as Lecce. But their strategy was not effective. Lecce went ahead 1-0 with a penalty in the second half. After that, the Udinese players made several good attacks but the Lecce players were able to counter every attack successfully. These 3 points were very important for Lecce. They are now a safe distance away from the relegation zone.

The new game week is starting with a Bochum - Dortmund game tonight. From now on Dortmund are in a really critical period because they need to win all of the rest of their games as of now unless Bayern Munich continue to make mistakes. However while Bayern Munich have only the Bundesliga left I expect them to be more focused on the league title.

I know they lost to Mainz anyway but then they were really tired and unhappy with the result they got in the Champions League. As a result I hope to see Dortmund winning today by showing a solid performance.
Now, the fate of Borussia Dortmund is in their own hands, if they want to become champions and break Bayern Munich's dominance for years then they must be able to finish the remaining matches in this Bundesliga with a win. Now it's up to them, whether they will miss the great opportunity that is in front of their eyes, or they make the most of it and claim the title after years of not getting it.

Bayern Munich's performances have been somewhat erratic this season. Dortmund has a chance to win the Bundesliga title after a long time. I am not sure if they will be able to take advantage of the opportunity. If they want to win the title, Dortmund Dalj must maintain the consistency of performance. They are 1 point ahead of Munich in the match. And so if they drop a point in any match they will lose the top spot in the table. All the upcoming matches are do-or-die matches for Dortmund if they want to win the title.
120  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: April 28, 2023, 10:15:15 AM
I think it's not a question of real fans or not but it's about being realistic.
Even though we really don't want to see Barcelona win the La Liga title, there's actually nothing that can be done, especially with the current conditions with a very large gap.
Madrid have shifted their focus and in rough language they have not cared about the la league trophy for this season because they are aware that this will actually make their focus on the champions League dispersed.
Real Madrid focuses on UCL and Copa Del Rey because it more makes sense to win. You must be aware that the point gap between Barcelona and Real Madrid is too far in La Liga standings, Real Madrid players must think to keep their energy for UCL and Copa Del Rey final. They still have big matches in UCL and they have a crucial match in Cop Del Rey, too. In early the next month, they need to play with their best performance and all the players must be available. So, I support the idea that Real Madrid doesn't play too aggressively in La Liga matches. But they don't need to miss points because they need to maintain 2nd place position in La Liga, too.
this is like i said before. their condition for La Liga at this time is only to maintain position 2 which is not yet safe from Atletico's pursuit and there is nothing else to fight for anymore as for the Champions League and and the Copa del Rey is still possible for them especially for now the Copa del Rey is the final which is indeed a very big chance of winning.
I think Real Madrid are now too worried about the semi-finals of the Champions League, which is why the team is failing to spend much time in La Liga. In fact, the semi-final match is very important for Real Madrid when the opponent is Manchester City, who are currently one of the best teams. So it will not be easy for Real Madrid to secure the victory in the semi-final match.
Maybe that's the reason for Real Madrid when got a bad result last week against Girona in La Liga because they are disappointed about La Liga and there is no hope for them while they focus on the champions league large against Manchester City where they are going to have a hard match. But still, there is only two points difference between them and Atletico Madrid and there is a chance for them to lose their position on the table.

You are right. Real Madrid is disappointed with La Liga. And they don't expect to win the La Liga title this season. Their goal is the Copa del Rey and the Champions League. And in these two places, Real Madrid performed brilliantly. Madrid had a great win over Barcelona in the Copa del Rey match. They are also playing well in the Champions League. As they are going to face Manchester City in the Champions League. So right now coach Ancelotti doesn't want to focus on anything other than the Champions League.
