As Bitcoin popularity grows, the hate for it is also growing and as a result some countries will ban it. Not all wants to be an investor but those who are into it will start has a positive mindset but as a newbie investor, mistakes are still there. It's fine as long as we are willing to learn from it and stand up again as a stronger version of our selves.

Bitcoin can make a person curious and it occurs not only because of its increasing value so those who will try it will not always end up as an investor. When it comes to introducing Bitcoin, we should start at the very beginning and don't just jump in and say that Bitcoin is great for investing as some things could go wrong.
Although some countries may view bitcoin as a threat, with potential for illegal use, the mere mention of it can still lead to increased interest and education about the cryptocurrency. In fact, the very act of banning bitcoin in certain countries can create a buzz and generate more curiosity among people. The internet is a powerful tool and once people hear about something like bitcoin, they will likely seek out more information to learn what it is all about.

For those who are hesitant to invest real money in bitcoin, there are alternatives available. Freelancing platforms now offer the option to receive payments in bitcoin, which provides a low-risk introduction to the world of cryptocurrencies. Another way to earn bitcoin is through free faucets, which give out small amounts of bitcoin for simply spending time on their platform. This can be a great starting point for those who want to get a feel for bitcoin without investing a significant amount of money.

No one will leave the major exchanges, we already understand all this.Firstly, it is convenient.Many newcomers immediately go there and do not want to look for an alternative, because more knowledge and new skills are needed there.Most often, beginners want to press two buttons and buy what they are interested in.Many people do not understand how these or those exchanges are arranged and according to what principle they work,so most go to where there are more reviews and acquaintances.
People trust an exchange when there is a known entity behind its operations. This is the main reason why centralized exchanges are preferred over decentralized exchanges. Many users do not have the technical knowledge to verify the balances in a CEX's cold wallets, which are used to store funds securely. This lack of transparency makes users vulnerable to potential fraud or mismanagement of funds.

The recent events with FTX illustrate the importance of transparency. Despite being a well-established exchange, FTX never made their cold wallets public, which raised concerns about the safety of user funds. On the other hand, exchanges like Binance are known for their transparency, which builds trust with users.

Milan can't suddenly start being a great team in UCL just because they are losing in the league. I mean they are not doing that great right now and they won't do anything good in UCL neither, that is not going to happen, that is going to be a problem for them.

Doesn't mean they can't beat Spurs, there is a good chance that they could beat Spurs and that could happen, but that doesn't change the fact that we will see them do even better afterwards, the best they can do will be beating Spurs, after that, unless they get a very very lucky draw from a much smaller team, they are going to lose, and there is a big possibility that they will lose to Spurs as well.
In last five games day by day they are going down from bad to worse with their defense is surely completely not working, and they are conceding great number of goals which is the biggest concern for the Pioli 14 goals in five games is surely the worst situation for the AC Milan against Tottenham which is doing better at English Premier League and their attack is also much better than AC Milan which will create problems for them as well but here which strategy will work for the Milan to handle against Tottenham it's a biggest question right now and have no replies from management or players they are mentally down and their performance is also on lowest level look like they are going to be had changes if they want better results otherwise this is going to be worst end for them after having title in last season.

What an exciting match it is! Barisal fought hard even with a target of only 122 runs, it is really commendable. I thought Barisal was going to win. But in the end, Comilla's players managed to grab the win. But the performance of Comilla's batsmen was also not satisfactory.

Comilla team won the match as a result of Kushdil Shah's 23 runs from 19 balls and Andre Russell's 30 runs from 16 balls. Shakib gave 17 runs in the 18th over. If he could have done some controlled bowling then maybe we would have got a chance to enjoy the match till the last over. With the win in this match, Comilla Victorians are now the second team in the points table and Fortune Barisal has moved down to the third position in the table.
Comilla Victorians decision for having field first after winning toss was good as their bowlers done good job and not allowed Barishal batting line to have better target for their batting line up but still things were not good for the batting in this difficult situation no batsmen able to have decent score and Mukidul Islam having his 5/23 give good advantage to Comilla Victorians after having target of 122 their start was also not good as they lose quick wickets and have 74 for lost of 5 wickets after the departure of Litton Das Khushdil Shah and Andre Russel done good job for the Victorians and score 48 runs in just 4.2 overs which help their team to win the match and have second spot in league table.

Yes, Kane's wikipedia page in the club titles section is a pain. This simply should not be with a player of this status. Even if he is very comfortable in Tottenham and he is a very big patriot of this club, he has already given the club everything he could and at 29 it is time to think about titles. Bavaria was interested in him - it was necessary to use this opportunity, and even now I think there is still an option to go there.
He should have left Tottenham for a top club a long time ago, when here was 24–25 years. Tottenham is a club with no ambitions for Silverware. A club that even went ahead to sack a coach that was capable of bringing them some silverware right before playing a final.
There is already too much talk about this all with we have no better prediction because with most chances Harry Kane is not going to leave Tottenham in near future for any other club even right now two top clubs are desperately looking for this transfer but Tottenham management and fans are happy and understand he is not going to leave them in any case now he is already achieved few good things in his career and still can do at this club even he is not going to win any big trophy with this all.

Recently he score his 200th Premier League goal and now having next task is the highest goalscorer in Premier League which is also achievable in near future even his form is on decline but still he is capable of having better performance in coming years.

Rayo Vallecano just assumed the 5th position in La Liga standings after achieving their 3rd win in the last 5 matches. Villarreal is in poor form but I think The fixture between Vallecano and Villareal will decide if Villareal will join in the fight for the top 4 positions in the standing, but till then The fight is going to be between Real Sociedad, Atletico Madrid, and Rayo Vallecano who seems to be in a very good form presently.
The last time rayo meet villareal , they beat villareal away from home.

They had really great weeks to climb up to the top 5 now. Could be their season wonder to finish at the champions league spot if they can maintain the current form and kick atletico or real sociedad out of the competition , the journey is still far away but it's there for grab!
There is good change of quality and performance for the Rayo Vallecano will allow them to stay at this spot for more weeks and things can change if they have done more improvement they can go at fourth and having good chance for the qualifying into Champions League recently we have good decline in teams which are mostly stayed at this level but now struggling badly like Villarreal, Betis and Athletic Bilbao all are going down and have not good improvement for having chance to stay at higher level which is concern for them but Rayo is surely doing amazing and need to stay at this level because if they lost their momentum then surely they can also face consequences and drop is always stayed at the head for teams like these in La Liga.
1107  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2022/23 Season on: February 06, 2023, 07:03:54 AM
Erik Ten Hag by now is one step ahead towards creating a strong wall of defense against Barcelona in order not to allow a chance of penetration from their forward players, just like Dembele and Lewandowski who are very dangerous when allowed to break into a defensive line. Their matchup with each other came at a very early time but watching the game now when the two teams are in top form makes it more intriguing to watch.
Dembele will not be playing against MU during the continuation of europa league for the match between MU against Barcelona. Raphinha will be replacing dembele and i believe raphinha is far garbage compared with dembele. MU's defenders will able to protect rapinha easily while the problem is now Lewandowski. I think mu needs to learn from the play style that has used by bayern against Barcelona. intermilan was also showing good play about how to prevent Barcelona.
Dembele will not be a threat for MU caused by be will absent from the game against MU. Im so happy to see that one of main player from Barcelona won't play.
If Barcelona is going to lose Dembélé for this encounter then surely it's going to be good advantage for the Manchester United because he is the quality player and have good impact on Barcelona performance in last few matches with Robert Lewandowski is not able to perform well after his return from the RED CARD suspension Raphinha is surely not near Dembélé but still have ability to give better result for his team.

Manchester United is doing good job and having improvement in their defense as well which was the biggest concern for them in early part of this season, but recently they are on good recovery even still few things needs to fix, but they are capable of handling things in positive way in first leg Barcelona needs to have some better performance because at home Manchester United could be different team for them.
1108  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: February 05, 2023, 09:56:50 PM
Kick off Barcelona and Seville have started.
Barcelona's chance is now big enough to add points, especially with Madrid's slightly disappointing condition, it is clear they have the opportunity to widen the distance with Madrid to 8 points.
Judging from the scheme they are running, it seems that Xavi still intends to get 3 points in this match.
Xavi is still exploring Gavi's position change but it is interesting for De Jong and Pedri who are now swapping positions.
I have such high expectations from this game. I won't lie; I am with Barcelona on this. If they win, it will make Madrid look bad, and I really want them to win and move higher up on the table. I see Xavi's strategy coming in this game, and I trust his judgment and hope that it favors him. So far, the game has just started, and we are still seeing how things go. I believe the three points are already in the bag.
Right now we are in 70th minute of the game and Barcelona is having led by one goal which was scored by Alba even they are leading and now having eight points difference from the second spotted Real Madrid, but their performance is also not as they have to done Busquets is out with injury and Robert Lewandowski is also not performing as he needs to be which is concern for the Xavi and company because now we have few days left in game against Manchester United and their performance is going down which can create problems for them in their chance for the Europa Cup match even now things are in complete under their control, and they can feel good for their chance of having La Liga title in their grip.
1109  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season on: February 05, 2023, 09:25:59 PM
A draw could also be a possibility in this match. They are 2 teams that both want to play football and score goals. But on Tuesday we also have the game AC Milan - Tottenham Hotspur. The English are the favorite in this game, in Milan it will be 50-50 but in 2 games I expect Tottenham to continue. I think the weakest teams in 1 match are those of the Benfica-Club Brugge match. A favorable draw for both. Benfica was also doing well in the CL last year. The coach of Bruges was fired a few weeks ago due to disappointing results in the competition. But winning the group in the CL apparently has no value anymore. Strange.
While we have first leg at Stadio Giuseppe Meazza San Siro which is headquartered of the AC Milan and this is good advantage for them but with their current domestic performance and issues in defense I have feeling Tottenham can outclass them here as well because they are much better and organized team and their attack and defense both are having good coordination which is important for the success of any team with mostly feeling they can give tough time to visitors, but things are surely not in their favour, and they have to improve their performance which is lacking in all ways and suddenly their declined performance is also concern now in last five games they have no win mean things are going from bad to worse.
1110  Economy / Economics / Re: Monthly or weekly pay? Fixed or percentage earning? what is your prefrence. on: February 04, 2023, 06:29:51 PM
if I were an employee, I would ask my boss to pay me weekly. being paid weekly is actually much better than being paid monthly because usually people who are paid monthly will enter into a debt circle unless the payment received per month is large enough and can cover expenses every day.
Usually, the amount paid on a monthly basis is bigger than the pay we get per week and per 15 days which can be enough to budget to reach another monthly payment again. Getting involved in debt won't be based on how long we get our payment because I already saw people who are still involved in debt even though they are being paid daily, weekly and per 15 days. If you are an employee, you can't just tell your boss to pay you per week but they have the right to decide if what time or day they will pay you.

For me, I prefer to be paid in percentage because there is a way for my earnings to be maximized if there are days that I feel more energetic to work for extra hours.
1111  Economy / Economics / Re: What do you think will happen if... on: February 03, 2023, 07:09:40 PM
I can't find the percentage of institutional investors in Bitcoin, but the result on Google is roughly 50%, so it is really huge, and if they sell off, then it would decrease the price. Though I am not sure of the data, I think it is impossible for them to sell off or stay away from bitcoin as it plays a big factor for them. Also, for sure, those institutional investors are not of the same mind, so mostly there are only a few of them if they want to do this.
You mean you can't find the exact data? Well, I think that's normal and all that we see in the web are only just an estimation but they are still close to the exact number so they can still be reliable. 50 percent is huge. I expect something lesser than this because I believe that institutional investors prefer a traditional investment instrument such as stocks and these kinds of assets are also more legal that in Bitcoin.

Many of them might sell off once the bull market returns but I think you are right that they won't sell all together as some has a higher standards the other. Even without their help, a normal individual can still invest continuously so BTC price can always rise.

We must avoid FOMO because we will rush into analyzing, which can result in mistakes in analyzing and making decisions.
But unfortunately, there are still many traders who don't care about it and instead, they decide to follow the price which has started to move.
They don't think that price manipulation can cause them to suffer losses because they only think that they can quickly act according to the market.
Emotions will not allow us to gain profits but will cause us to suffer losses.
Those who FOMO don't take time to analyse but they just rush on buying on what is currently hot in the market. If we will rush analysing then it's better if we can't just analyse because that will still be useless. There are so many things which can go wrong if you will rush things. In trading, emotions is one of our enemies so we must learn on how to eliminate them.

There are bots which doesn't have an emotion but we can't jump on them immediately if we still don't know if what are the best coins that will work in trading. Not only bots are immune to manipulations and fuds but they can also help us to be free, I mean we can now trade automatically while enjoying our life outside.

Djokovic has the Australian Open with a great display of power. But Alcaraz was not there, the number 1 in the world. He would have had a really hard time with that. And against Nadal in good form too. But Alcaraz had to miss this tournament due to an injury and Nadal was actually unable to continue in the 2nd round. If both had been fit, it would have been a lot more difficult for Djokovic. Perhaps most memorable was Murray's performance, who at times returned to his old level of 10 years ago when he was among the best tennis players in the world at the time. Yet with Murray I always felt that he was in the shadow of players like Djokovic, Federer and Nadal.
After watching his quality and performance into Australian Open now I have feeling he is still much better and younger than new generation players and have enough years to rule this tennis court with this game, and we will have too many records against his name in coming years even we lost few top rank players but still he was playing like champions and now all eyes on French Open where things could be completely different, and we will have challenging matches for him but unfit Nadal is surely going to be hurt if he is not going to play in French Open with Alcaraz is also looking impressive, but injury is surely issue for many players hopefully he will be able to join here and give his best on clay court which is clearly ruled by Nadal for many years.

Is this allocation of your total funds or a calculation of budgeted money for cryptocurrency? If this is just a calculation of your budget to invest in cryptocurrency then it is fine but if you calculate this way to invest all of your total assets in cryptocurrency then you will face a big danger at some point. Cryptocurrencies you must invest in.  But it should be 5 to 10% of your total assets. And the rest of the money you can invest in different assets and different types of business that will protect you from all sides.  So never depend on only one thing. Bitcoin is a potential and very valuable asset so it is foolish to depend only on Bitcoin
He said "earning breakdown" so this must be the earnings that he got from his crypto activities and as we can see he just return most of it to cryptos to be able to grow it again. Earnings from his other side hustles may not be included there. We should not invest all of our money in crypto because there are still risks as we don't know what's coming up ahead.

Maybe the coin that we invest go down for some reason, something like that and there is no way for them to recover anymore. So, it's always better to use only amounts which you can afford to lose easily. A serious investors know how to diversify. They can mitigate the risk by also investing in a less volatile assets.

I bet everyone is looking forward to that match. Barcelona has greatly improved in their defense but feel their midfield is lacking in the form of Busquets. I think he would be slow to hold the fast and agile attackers Manchester United has and if they could capitalize on that, it could be good.

During the absence of Lewandoski, Dembele has been very instrumental and very effective in their attacks. But now he’s back, it would be an added plus for Barcelona. Very exciting game ahead.
In this season we have good viewership for the UEFA Europa Cup due to many big teams are involved in this event but still this match between Manchester United vs Barcelona is the biggest event with too much interaction for this match and things are heated up because both teams are doing amazing performance in last few rounds and having good results in their respective leagues specially Manchester United which is now in EFL Cup final after beating Nottingham in semifinal with this all things are looking interesting and fans are also desperate for this big match with most chances we will have no good number of goals in this match because both teams will try to play safely and have advantage in their first match which is going to play after two weeks at Camp Nou Barcelona.

what is means if alot of bitcoin transfer from exchange to unknown wallet?, Is they understand if Not your key not your BTC? or they know if the button has been pressed.
That is what we call, ""whales filling their bags"". For those who have whole lot to invest, the current price is not too bad if they are going in for long term, and most of the whales keep buying throughout the period when the price was dropping or even going up since they can benefit from both sides.

Not sure what this has anything to do with a bull run.
But, remember the situation where more bitcoins are being deposited into exchange wallets, we do have bear market and then why not we assume about the reciprocal now?

Most of the time those who feel regrets are also the same people who keeps saying that it's needed to wait for more downfall, expecting that huge dump will follow the current market and unable to buy when the price is cheap.

You can't predict the market accurately but if you trust your knowledge, you can anticipate and buy from
the position that you believe you can hold. Crypto market is mostly a business of patience, you need to'have
lot to enjoy the benefits.
Sometimes it takes not twice but more mistakes for the people to finally learn. Many of us are once like that who are only great at giving advices while we also don't follow our own but now not anymore. We already corrected it because it just doesn't feel right.

Right now, when we say we want to wait for the bottom, we  also do a DCA or partially buying after each dip so that no hard feelings once the price didn't continue falling down. Given that the market is unpredictable then I don't think our knowledge can do a lot but rather you should say that we must also trust our own instincts or on what our heart says as sometimes it's more powerful than our mind.

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is reportedly gearing up to appoint Mickey Arthur as the 'online coach' of their senior men's national team. It has been reported that Arthur will be available on-site only for limited assignments while parallely working as the full-time coach for Derbyshire County Cricket Club. The decision from PCB has invited mixed reactions from fans while former captain Shahid Afridi also remains skeptical of Arthur's return, that too as an 'online coach'.
There is too much noise about this appointment because now things are going from bad to worse in Pakistan after change of Chairman they fail to hire any full time coach and now having services like this is surely creating more mess up with many former cricketers are also criticizing this decision from the Najam Sethi but right now taking anything about this is also not fair, but I'm personally feeling now Pakistan cricket is again going down for some years as we have few years back.

Shahid Afridi is also now have some concerns about few things but most chances no one can stop Najam Sethi from his experiments even in past he has good results but now how things will happen nothing is clear and overall Pakistan situation is also going to be more down with Peshawar Masjid Bomb attack.

PSG will likely fire Galtier if they fail to win the Ligue 1 title. However, PSG's main target is the Champions League. If PSG is able to play well by playing champions, then maybe PSG will keep Galtier as coach. And they will try to make the party stronger. Even if PSG can't play well in Ligue 1, they have the potential to play well in Champions League. Because their opponents Bayern Munich are not in good form. They have drawn in the last three matches. So if PSG's three attacking players can play well then they can win against Bayern Munich.
After having these matches after the break look like Galtier is going to have numbered days as coach of the PSG because they lost eight points but their luck giving them good chance second spotted Lens is also having lost six points in all away games otherwise they can claim for the top rank in Ligue 1 and with this performance if they are going to face Bayern Munich and lost match then surely things could be completely change and PSG will search for the another coach even right now situation in Bayern Munich is also same because they are also unable to win any match from their last three matches after the break while having two matches at home which is also not good currently these both leagues are having same performance from the leaders which is also interesting, and we can expect good fight for the Champions League match between these two teams.

Gambling business owners need to have strategic mindset in order for their business to thrive successfully and be in par with the existing and reputable casinos. If the manager of the casino do not organize what they have to do and what to accomplish, they certainly will not attain it. Business owners have to set a specific goal and a specific time frame for it to be achieved.

They need to utilize their resources in order to make their casino one of the choices a player will have in mind if ever they are actively finding one. for the side of the gambler, it isn't enough to possess the fund needed in order to make a bet, and instead one must possess discipline and a critical mind to think and make worthwhile decisions.
Business owners have to focus on one thing which is profiting, and casinos are type of a business model and they have to focus on making profit. Most of them tend to be legit because they know that they will make a profit if they stay legit too, a few end up with shady moves and not allowing withdrawals and freezing accounts and so forth and try to make sure they end up with something that is a bit more on the risky side.

I believe that we shouldn't be really explaining this to people, because house edge is there to make sure casinos earn, and if they do something shady on top of that, then it's a bye bye and nobody will gamble there and they won't make any more money.
