Bitcoin is open to everyone just depending on the acceptance of individuals. Middle-aged people may have the best understanding of Bitcoin because they have the highest capacity to receive Bitcoin in any way you can. There are many traders who convert fiat money into Bitcoin without depositing it in the bank. Buying bitcoins with fiat money keeps the key with you and can be used whenever you want and helps you accumulate money.
If you accept bitcoins then the bitcoins are yours. But if you don't accept Bitcoin then Bitcoin is not yours. You can criticize Bitcoin in front of everyone because then if someone shows interest then he should be interested in accepting Bitcoin. But I like to discuss Bitcoin locally so people can know the community about Bitcoin and understand the correct information.

Honestly I was expecting Manchester City to win this Community Shield title one way or another. I waited for a good competition at the beginning of the season of course. Because this was the first official game for both teams so I didn't expect so many goals. We were about to find out which side was readier than the other one.

Palmer's goal was really lovely and I thought the game was going to end by 1-0. But it was unbelievable that there was a stoppage time of more than 10 minutes and Trossard scored the equalizer in the last moments. This was the turning point for Arsenal as they won by 4-1 on penalties.

There was plenty of competition on the pitch though despite Manchester City attacking more, Arsenal's goalkeeper could easily fend off attacks. The first half of the game until half time was a tight battle between the two teams although Arsenal had one less attack. After Manchester City scored a goal in extra time Arsenal had a chance and capitalized on it to draw 1-1 and I couldn't keep my cool at the penalty shootout. Because the number of penalty misses is incomparable but Arsenal's players have not missed a single penalty. So the Arsenal players were quite experienced and calm.

West Indies is really good in T20 format cricket, the first match result of five match series proved it. Now the second match result have proven that West Indies team is king of T20. In the first match West Indies scored 149 runs and defended India and won by 4 runs. This time West Indies have chased the target of 152 runs with 7 balls remaining. Nicholas Pooran played an awesome innings scoring 67 runs from 40 balls which were the important scores for winning.
I think this series has given India selectors a big reality check that their bench strength is literally zero. Making a team full of 11 big stats who played best in IPL is never going to work. If you see it in a way its just the big 3 players that are missing, out of which I consider Rohit pretty much out of form from long. is Indian team again going towards the path where only 1 person makes it win and it's Kohli?
Anyone looking on the T20 squad will say, it is hard to beat this team. It is accepted that the bowling line-up isn't the best, but with the batting line-up unable to score atleast 180 runs is really bad. Looking the scores of the two matches played it is well known that the team isn't good enough to play a team like West Indies. Maybe they're good in playing against teams like Netherlands and Ireland. In the first match they weren't able to score 150 runs and win the match and in the second match just 152 runs scored, shame on the performance.

West Indies lost wickets at the beginning but Pooran took over the game later. Only West Indies main tool in yesterday's match was pooran and many others played well enough to help West Indies win easily. West Indies performed very well in both the first and second T20I. And West Indies have performed poorly in other matches with India but currently West Indies are winning the very old match with India in T20I.  I have seen the West Indies perform very well in the toughest matches because the licks are being finished well.

West Indies vs India
 Team's 2nd T20 match started today. India won the toss and came to bat. Scored 79 runs in 12 overs. Now India is under a lot of pressure after losing 4 wickets. India lost the 1st T20 match by just 4 runs. How good is India in today's match?  It will not be understood till the end of the game. It seems that India will be able to give the target of 150 runs today. West Indies has started to perform well in bowling. If the two teams play in this way, we will see a hard fight between the two teams.

If India manage to score 150 runs then surely a competitive match can be expected as West Indies are likely to put on their best performance in T20I matches. As five wickets have fallen, India are currently without a good batsman as today's match is in favor of the bowlers. Akeal Hosein has seen a very good performance in West Indies bowling. Tilak Verma is the only Indian player to score a half century. If the West Indies team can perform well from the start then there is definitely a chance to win today.

India is playing the second T20I match today. India have lost two wickets and I think it is a very bad sign to lose early wickets in T20 matches. If there is a wicket, the pressure on the team is less, so losing two wickets in the power play, the Indian team is facing a lot of pressure.  Meanwhile, West Indies are providing a very good bowling service due to which the top two West Indies teams are very likely to win today. India team has collected 49 runs in 8 overs, if they continue to collect runs like this, they will surely reach 180 runs in the end. And if the Indian team can score 180 runs then there is definitely a chance to win today.

For USA vs Sweden, I would think that Sweden will win, even though the Americans are playing pretty well.

I just prefer the way the Swedes play compared to how the Americans do it, so my prediction is Sweden will come up on top.

Although Sweden women's players are performing well on the field, the USA women's team is the best offensively. The USA Women's team has had the most attacks in attacks so far in the current half. Although neither team was successful in attacking, in that case I can say that the team that can attack more after half time will be the winning team today. And if we want to score today, we will have to attack the hardest because the defenders of both teams are very strong and hard working players. But usa is attacking the most i think USA can win because also much ahead in attack.

Investing is definitely the best way to be long-term. Because I want to say that investing will definitely earn benefits but looking at time and market momentum we should invest for long term.
Because the Bitcoin market is now fully matured but there is a 100% chance of profit. Because as per the current market conditions it will never be possible to promise 100% profit.

Never doubted the Japanese to get the job done after their impressive games over Spain and Zambia, and I remember someone placing a 5000/1 bet on Japan to win the mens worldcup on sportsbet and unfortunately this didn't happen...suppose on the women's side it could happen especially  that most of the big names like Italy, Germany, Brazil etc have all been knocked out.

Anybody else backing Japan to win the worldcup   currently sitting at ~7 odds Huh

Though this edition of the FIFA Women's World Cup tournament has been full of surprising results and eliminations of supposed big teams, I've never doubted the strength and capacity of the Japanese team.
Norway showed resilience in the game and also made a statement with their performance that they didn't get to this stage of the competition by chance, Japan still had their way against their Norwegian counterparts. I'll be very surprised not see Japan in the final of the competition

The Norwegian women's players worked hard but could never get the attack going. However, Japan showed a strong form here as they scored goals especially through counter attacks and after many attacks Japan women's team succeeded. The balance of the players of the two teams was correct until half time, but after the half time, the players of the Norwegian team could not make any special attacks. But the Japanese team made several complex attacks that the defense of the opposing Norwegian team could not resist. And the Japan team is quite strong as it proved against the Norway team.

The Spanish women team seems to be the obstacle other teams need to pass through before winning the WWC. Today they played absolutely well with a 1-5 win against the Switzerland women's team, the forces the Spain team used against their opponent wasn't something other can underrate because as it stands now, Spain is first to qualify to the quarter finals with a huge win and so much confidence.

Spain women's players performed very well and the goal difference was wide. Aitana Bonmati gave her best performance today which scared the Swiss team. Aitana Bonmati once again proved the magic of her feet with two goals for the Switzerland women's team. Although Switzerland performed well in the beginning, it came to the end and performed worst in the middle of the game. And Switzerland's defenders were at least normal enough to not withstand the extra pressure as Spain attacked enough.

Quote
Their next opponent should be either Japan (which I see winning today's game) or Norway.

Japan Women's Team and Norway Women's Team are tied on goals so far. But the two teams are playing with great versatility. If I look at the previous results, Japan definitely performed the best. And today Japan is trying hard enough to win and the attack is very difficult, which is a threat to Norway. But till last time we have to wait for the result.

West Indies vs India
  In the team match I thought that India will perform well in this match and win the match. India lost this match due to the bad performance of the batsmen of the team. The run target that West Indies first put into the field could have been easily exceeded by the Indian team.I did not understand that the batsman of the Indian team, Ishan Kishan, will bat so badly. Ishan Kishan got out with 9 runs in 6 balls. Although the words of the Indian team are good, India lost very badly in batting. It is very sad that India lost the match for 4 runs.
I predicted in another thread that West Indies is a good side in T20Is. They have the ability to beat any team on their day. Pooran and Rovman Powell played well and posted a good total on the board. But, it was chasable for India as well. The winning margin is not too big. They were almost there. So I would say it was bad luck.

Indian opening pair failed to play well. Only Tilak Varma was outstanding with the bat. But it's a hard job for a single batter to win the match. He needed some support from another side as well. But others were maintaining a 100 strike rate only.
The T20 match between West Indies and India has been extremely competitive. But India's loss to West Indies is really ridiculous, I think some of the matches India lose are because of their arrogance. However, if the Indian batsmen were a little more careful, this match could have been secured.

If you observe, you can definitely see that the Indian team completely fell apart after Ishan Kishan and Shubman Gill got out. Because the opening batsmen did not do the team any favors as they put the team under a lot of pressure by getting out early. Later, only the fall of wickets is seen, those who performed well in the previous matches, came to T20 and performed very poorly. Especially in the ODI matches, the Indian team could do some good things for the team even if they were few in number. But in the T20I match, the Indian team could not meet the West Indies' short run. Because the Indian team failed to win despite trying hard.

West Indies VS India
The first match of the West Indies vs India T20 series has started today. West Indies won the toss and decided to bat. Already 4 overs have been played without taking any wicket and collected 29 runs. India is the top number one team in T20 ranking. India bowling line and batting line is better than West Indies. India has more chances to win than West Indies in today's match. I think India will win the match today.
West Indies played well early in the game when it looked like they would set a good target to India but they gave away the target of 149 runs.  India too are not playing well today they have lost 3 wickets for 69 runs.  Shubman Gill was a good player but got out for just 3 runs. India need 75 more runs in 9 overs which is not a big challenge.  Collecting this run is possible for any good team so I think India will not fail in this case
Once after the innings of West Indies thought 149 an easy target for India. The end result of the match is really disappointing and completely unexpected. West Indies have won the match by 4 runs and India was able to score 145/9 in 20 overs. The middle order somehow managed to stand wicket, but that hadn't lasted till the end. No solid performance other than Tilak Varma scoring 39 runs from 22 balls. West Indies team needs to be appreciated to defend with such a low score. Hope this series would be a win for West Indies if India continues to play this way and this is the outcome of over confidence.
No one thought that India would lose such an easy match as West Indies set India a target of very few runs. but India could not complete that target. this is ridiculous. a good player like Shubman Gill also played very badly in yesterday's match. India can win very tough matches but they played yesterday's match very carelessly as West Indies were targeted for very less runs but India lost this match. I did not expect such a game
It's really a shame for India to lose. If the target for India was 200 plus, if India lost, there would not have been so much criticism about this team, but not being able to score only 150 runs must be called a disappointing performance for India. No matter how well the young cricketers are playing, senior cricketers must be considered in making a complete team whereas BCCI did not consider any senior cricketers for this series. In the first T20 against the West Indies, with the batting lineup that India arranged for the XI, before the start of the match, I thought for sure that India would win the first match, but India performed like a weak team.

One of the main reasons why the Indian team lost was the fall of wickets. Because the pitch of the game that was played tomorrow was in favor of bowling. Due to which every batsman was out for few runs, among them Roman Powell of West Indies team performed a little better, moreover, a batsman from the two teams could not make a half century. However, in terms of bowling, West Indies team's Jason Holder has bowled very well. Jason Holder fell two wickets with just 19 runs, I think the West Indies team went on to win because of the good bowling performance of the West Indies team as the Indian team was under a lot of pressure.

I think you are absolutely correct in pointing out that such a person will, in the vast majority of cases, not tell anyone about their gambling addiction. 
And this is where the main problem of such players lies.  A person cannot say this because other people will naturally reproach, scold and even insult him and say that he is so weak-willed that he cannot stop playing.  This psychological brake in the behavior of a gambler over time constantly only makes it worse and worse, and painful gambling only gets worse.  For this reason, the sooner he turns to specialists, the easier it will be for him to overcome such addiction to gambling.  And the easier and simpler will be the life of his entire family if the family does not have the problem of constant daily struggle with the gambling addiction of one of the family members. 
I still think that without the help of specialists in these matters, if not impossible, then certainly it is very difficult to cope.
In this case, openness is needed from the gambling addict to make people around him understand that he needs help. And with his family's help, the problem of gambling addiction can be solved properly, and gamblers who are addicted to gambling can also manage their lives freely without thinking about gambling. Seeing a specialist can help a gambling addict overcome his addiction and make a new person who has successfully quit gambling. And when he is successful, he can share his story of getting out of gambling with people who are also addicted to gambling so that this can make their spirits rise and have the desire to get well too.

I have seen many experienced gamblers who are always engrossed in gambling. As with gambling, people naturally enjoy it the most and must be counseled before they become addicted to it. Because a person addicted to gambling always brings something bad because the gambler always wants to get something extra from being engrossed in gambling. So such greed and lust is inside everyone but people have to keep control and be engrossed in gambling then it is possible to win in almost all gambling. And a fully addicted person must be weaned out of gambling or else will continue to face losses all the time.

In today's match of Morocco vs Colombia team, Morocco won the match by scoring 1 goal after a lot of trouble. After the start of the game, both teams played very well. Both teams tried hard to score. But Morocco managed to score a goal. Couldn't. But if Colombia could have scored 1 goal in this match then this match would have been a draw. The performance of the players of Colombia team who entered the field today was very bad. Today all the players of Morocco team played very well starting from the goalkeeper. Congratulations Morocco Team to win this match.

Morocco were very aggressive from the start as their main objective was to reach the knockouts. But due to luck, both Colombia and Morocco reached the knockouts. Because the number of points in their point table was 6 points. The win against Colombia increased Morocco's points, and the goalkeeper did a lot to prevent a Colombian goal, but the defenders had bad performance for the time. But Colombia missed several attacks that failed to succeed.

Real Madrid loss against Juventus on pre season match 3-1 last few hours, its become second time in a row for Real Madrid losing in pre season match after last games defeated by Barcelona. Its not really good for Real Madrid although as pre season match because without two weeks later they will play in La Liga. Against Juventus, Real Madrid dominance in ball possession and shot on target but its can't helped Madrid for winning the match.

Last match against Juventus become last pre season match for Real Madrid, next match against Athletic Bilbao in La Liga and Carlo Ancelotti must back to the top performance in domestic league. Although have weakness on striker position after not clear transfer Mbappe, Real Madrid have perform as well as in La Liga and Champion League next season.

I could not accept such a loss at all because although Real Madrid is a very strong team. But in the current situation many teams have become normal with the change of players but meanwhile Juventus has been quite strong so far. Because the three attacks that Juventus succeeded in were the three that were too deadly for Real Madrid. With Real Madrid failing to score goals due to a lack of strikers, the Karim Benzema vacancy needs an experienced player. So without striker Real Madrid seems empty and with all teams Real Madrid face loss.

You are saying this because of the near bitcoin halving that is almost around the corner. Well you’re right, but never expect that everyone will be given the best advantage when bitcoin halving is happening because it still depends on how much you prepared for it.

But I want to correct your wrong analysis based on how you perceived about bitcoin’s journey. 2018 was indeed a bearish moment for bitcoin, same with year 2022. However, 2021 was a great year for bitcoin because its price reached an all time high that time that put $65k as the latest all time high for bitcoin. By 2024, we are expecting a new all time high again, depending on the effect of this approaching bitcoin halving.

Bitcoin's all-time price increase hit 68k in 2021. And I see the four year cycle indicates bitcoin halving in 2024 but bitcoin price doesn't hit that much in that year. But going to the next year in 2025, the price of Bitcoin will definitely increase. Because in 2020 there was halving but in 2021 the price of Bitcoin reached the highest mountain height. We look forward to this future Bitcoin halving and the potential for some good new all-time highs.

The FIFA Women's World Cup Panama vs France match has already started. The game has started with a lot of hard-fought action between the two teams. France is leading by 2 goals. Panama is now leading by 1 goal. The first 2 minutes of the match are the first.  The goal was scored by M. Cox. Now to see how well Panama can perform in this match. If Panama can score one more goal then the match will be a draw and if no goal is scored then France will win this match easily. Which team will win today's match?  Will have to wait till the end of the game to see.

Although Panama tried hard to win, France meanwhile are in much stronger form. Because most of the match was under the control of France, but in terms of attack, France attacked the most. Although Panama conceded a goal early in the first leg, there were no more goals in the second half-time as France went far ahead of Panama's goal. Diani scored a hat-trick with his magic on the feet to lead France to victory with three goals as he launched a wide attack from the lone goal point. However, today's match was full of competition, which the French players have already proved.

I've seen teams having 8x odds against teams with only 2x winning the match and leaving everyone surprised because a person would never think that a team having no good results throughout a tournament or a series would defeat the favorite team of the league with a very big margin, so things like these happen every now and then.

That's normal in gambling; you should not be surprised by that. Odds are only indicators of the teams' chances of winning. Saying "chances of winning" does not guarantee a certain team's victory, even if the team is heavily favored. In fact, there are instances when a team loses despite having odds as low as 1.01.

We have a discussion on that topic here in the forum as well.

Gambler Loses 1.4 million USD in a bet with lower than 1.01 odds!
You are right, and this is one of the major reasons why gamblers betting based on odds always tend to lose far more bets than the win, like when i was still very new to sports betting, i did know much about any type of sports since  I wasn't really into watching sports and all that, but i was still very eager to bet, so what i always do was to just follow the crowd, that is i pay attention to the odds, i will always bet on the team that is getting the most bets from the crowd, as i always assumed that that is the team that will win, at the end, i still lose most of those bets.

So yeah, odds are just a way to show the team that the crowd out there are believing to have a higher chances of winning, not particularly like a guarantee of winning at the end of the game .

Basically boxing games are physical and mental and hand punches. The one who can physically fight like a warrior and use punches at the right time can win this game. But if you want to bet on all these games, you must review the veer jodha to know about its results and bet with all these things in mind. I am betting a lot at the moment but sometimes the results seem to be different. But these are all based on judgment and research and the only way to win is to make a bet using experience.

AC Milan - Barcelona

Enjoyed Barcelona's friendly match against AC Milan. Barcelona's performance was steady. Day by day the performance of this team is stable and organized.
The team lost 5-3 against Arsenal. We saw the weakness of Barcelona's defense. But in their next two matches, they played against the mighty Real Madrid and AC Milan. Barcelona's team did not concede any goals in these two matches. Barcelona beat Madrid 3-0.

Barcelona's overall gameplay against AC Milan was excellent. Barcelona's defense was solid. But I like the performance of Barcelona's young players. Raphinha in particular played well. Ansu Fati scored the goal. If the performance of these two players improves, the Barcelona team's attack can continue to perform well.

In this new season, the game is full of competition as all the teams are changing players but somehow not able to score goals. I noticed that both teams missed a lot of goals because they were not able to score due to lack of suitable strikers. Meanwhile, Barcelona though Milan could not attack as much as Barcelona were very aggressive here. Despite many attacks from Milan's D box, Barcelona could not succeed and won by only one goal. Where the margin of victory between Barcelona and Milan was wide, Barcelona managed to win by a small margin.  During the game, from the first half until half time, two teams, Barcelona and Milan, were having a very competitive match. But I think the Milan team definitely needed an experienced and capable striker.

India played today's game with decent wickets but very few runs scored. Because West Indies are showing very good performance in the field of bowling due to which the run score is very low. And in the current situation India should score a lot of runs as they have enough wickets so surely now Yadav and Hardik Pandya should score some runs in the last minute of the game then definitely West Indies will face a lot of pressure.
I believe though the fall of wickets has been less but West Indies have put in a very good bowling performance. Due to which India couldn't score huge runs, this short run is definitely competitive for both the teams.

Bitcoin price is a bit bearish in current situation but it is the best for us to buy. The current Bitcoin price could be more bearish than the current position, and that could be both good and bad news. It's normal for Bitcoin prices to go up and down because you can invest as much as you want, both short-term and long-term. The price of Bitcoin fell due to oversold pressure and prevented the price from rising. And waiting for the halving in 2024 is the only investment objective long-term investment is better.
