Trading P2P on binance is kind of safe but not completely safe, you have to follow the steps and you have to be careful, because the person you will be buying from or selling to might be trying to be smart, some might be trying to scam you so you have to be careful. If you are selling make sure you receive alert before releasing coin to the buyer, sometimes the buyer will mark order as paid and he will ask you to release coin, make sure you confirm that the buyer paid before releasing the coin.
I think kyc is required before you apply as a seller on their p2p markets so when someone wants to be a scammer then they can be in big trouble because binance got their identity and their addresses. It's also possible to see the sellers' ratings before we transact and usually those who are on top have a high ratings.

We can just pick them so that we are sure that we are safe. I personally don't prefer p2p but when I want to buy or exchange coins I will just use those instant exchangers. They are less hassle and their minimum also much lower compared to the most known cex. It is also safe in terms of privacy because they don't require a kyc.
1102  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which use case or utility will lead in 2024 or next bull market on: August 06, 2022, 07:41:42 AM
If I have to judge with the past crypto history its always something new every bull season, who would have thought that meme coins will cause a stir in crypto space last bull season? Maybe in 2024 we will yet notice another use case again?...
I think it's only a coincidence that on each bull run, there is also a new trend in the space. Can't say new addition since some can just disappear and became obsolete (ico for example). It came once with a bang on the year 2017 when cryptos are experiencing their new ath but a year or so later, ico have fallen and replaced by ieo, ido, and others.

Bull run can sometimes take a long time to occur like 4 years, so with that long, new discoveries are likely going to come. Meme coins came in I think after ico trend but unlike ico, meme coins are useless. They don't have use cases. Even without new trends, bull run can still come on their own.
1103  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: August 05, 2022, 08:58:35 PM
Milan should not be careless when competing with Udinese, because previously Udinese had troubled Milan several times, the last one was at the San Siro and Milan had to be willing to share points with Udinese. Milan will be seeded in the Serie A opener, Stefano Pioli can't go wrong in the first game of the season, as Udinese also want a win in their opener. Stefano Pioli's strategy was immediately tested by a team that always troubled Milan, three points had to be secured by Milan so that its status as Serie A champions last season was not polluted.
Milan is a different type of team now, they are not like old days, they won the league title last year and they have the confidence of that with them. So, I doubt that it would work for Udinese right now, it would probably be a lot more different in the long run.

People are waiting for Milan to be a mediocre team again but they are not, they are not the league fifth or anything, it is not like the past 10 years, for the past 2 years they have been very good and they could beat anyone, and I mean ANYONE in the league if they play well enough. Of course they could have some bad days but that is of course temporary and just time to time, and I hope first game is not like that.
1104  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 1 Billion Bitcoin users by 2024 is possible with increased access to electricity on: August 05, 2022, 06:58:43 PM
The issue of electricity supply have been a major problem for the entire world, and that is why there is a call for nuclear energy if the energy is renewed then enough storage will be easy for transmission. This energy situation is a global phenomenon but Africa is the worst hit simply because of the backwarness in technologies that can help generate more energy and also build a strong facilities to transmits the power to household. A lot of start ups in Nigeria can not survive the market because of lack for electricity. This have been the situation for a long now this if fixe will help to strengthen the economy.
Not the entire world but only those extremely poor countries. I think on our local rural areas, many places there will also not be covered by electricity because they are too far away from the city but governments are now putting up an alternatives like solar panels.

There's also hydro, wind and other types of renewable energy in case one isn't available due to weather conditions. Don't forget that the OP's concern is the adoption of bitcoin and not market or the economy of the countries that you mention although I think bitcoin can give some contribution on ones country if done well like governments can do some indirect regulation and then charge a tax for those big transactions.
1105  Economy / Speculation / Re: Best time for me to buy on: August 05, 2022, 03:01:44 PM
As intelligent investors we must always know when to buy or sell, if we never make a target price of buying and selling then we only follow the flow and issue so that we lose, if you look at the current price conditions then the buying option is better than selling, me Sure 1 or 2 more years Bitcoin prices can reach 3x or even 5x from the current price.
That is if we are intelligent already but what if not? Therefore, it's not also bad to seek for some help from those who have an experience or knowledge on this field. IMO id better not set a price target for buying and selling as I think I am more free and I can do what I want than having a commitment and sticking with it. Current price condition is not only good for buying but also for selling as well.

You can do that if you invest when the price is still at 20k and below. We are on those levels last time. I think that there is still a chance for the price to 3x within this year but I am not only sure though if it can do 5x but I am more sure with that by next year or so.
1106  Economy / Gambling / Re: The Biggest Wins with lowest risks in Casino History on: August 04, 2022, 09:18:59 PM
I know a guy who liked to gamble and he often talked about his winnings at the casino. He had an interesting characteristic: sometimes asking to borrow money. Of course I understood that this guy needed money for gambling.
But, we are talking about big wins here on this thread and not those who are ordinary wins only. Are you sure that the guy wins big before and the money that he risk is only small? If yes then why will he need to borrow more money from someone else? That's crazy but if that was his true intention then making up stories and then building an interesting character can be a part of his plan so that they can get your trust.

Be careful because he can lose the money and not pay you or he can just ran away without betting anything. Risking small amount and then winning a much bigger amount seems good to be true imo because this was gambling.
1107  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Roller coasters!!! on: August 04, 2022, 06:08:31 AM
Today the market is green again, after a few reds now many altcoins that I save have skyrocketed to more than 40%, the old coins that I keep like Doge, ETC and so on are still good, cryptocurrencies investment always gives good hope that to succeed and become a millionaire is always patient.
As long as you can take the right token as investment and it may possible to happen but once you are taking a wrong token and i can say you can lose your money in a short time. People known so well how crypto can give them all instant profit but in another side they also aware if crypto can make they are loosing their house in a few hours. A very high risk instrument investment for now
This is the hard part, if you are not certain about what to buy then go with the top ones. If you are willing to take a risk then you are going to end up with something that is majorly problematic, we are talking about a big deal here because when you pick an unknown small cap stuff that means you could end up with a big profit or you could end up with absolutely nothing as well.

This means you are willing to take that risk when you make that and I do not know if you will come out on top or not. Tokens specially are a very difficult place to be, doesn't mean that it should be profitable right away, but certainly doesn't mean that it would be easy to do neither.
1108  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: August 03, 2022, 09:26:20 PM
Honestly I am sad to see Georginio Wijnaldum condition at PSG, he has made the wrong decision in his career, when his contract ended with Liverpool, he almost officially moved to Barcelona, ​​but at the last second Wijnaldum was fascinated by the salary offered by PSG and he gave false hope for Barcelona. Now that he is no longer needed at PSG and has allowed him to immediately look for a new club, Wijnaldum must immediately reach an agreement with Roma that can give him a safe position in the first squad, he had to make amends for the mistakes he had made by showing his best performance when given a second chance by Mourinho. Wijnaldum had achieved success with Liverpool, he had to prove it again when he officially became a Roma player.
This is the story of the grass is not greener else where, wijnaldum has all a football player wants in a club,love, respect, playing time and was winning trophies but still yet he wanted to text himself elsewhere, I think he was thinking if he is the reason Liverpool midfield is stronger if they don't regard me the way they regards Mohamed Salah and sadio Mane then I should go so that they will miss me and know my worth not knowing he was privileged to be in the first team at Liverpool.
Georginio Wijnaldum is not alone in this boat we have very long list of players those done mistakes like these and shattered their future and great career into disaster, but good thing happened to him now officially he is Roma player and have good chance for staying into first team which mean have good time for showing his best and still can achieve some good in his career.

Georginio Wijnaldum's stay at Liverpool was his best time and with his transfer to Barcelona was also not bad, but greediness of more money shattered this all and PSG was never been ideal destination for him and his career where most of the time he was at bench, and now they are saying please check something new for his future hopefully now he will take his lesson and have some better here at Roma where Mourinho is also doing his best for revival of his career.
1109  Economy / Gambling / Re: My list of good crypto casinos on: August 03, 2022, 08:39:34 PM
Maybe he needs to find the casinos on this forum and have a list of different casinos from his own for comparison so he can see which casinos he can gamble with. It's better not to take the risk by playing in a casino where we don't know the security of ourselves because it can get us into trouble later. Playing at the casinos on this forum is better than looking for sources we don't know for sure.
I don't think you can judge which casino has high security and which casino has bad security since you don't know the source code and what inside of the site. I'd say it's not really about the security even though we're need a high security site, but the trustworthiness and active representative are the most important to play on online casino. Without these criteria, we can say the casino is shady and likely to scam.
For me, I can judge the casino's security depending on their popularity. If a casino is highly popular then I think they have a high security because usually they are the ones who will be targeted by the hackers because of the huge money flowing on them but of course they don't want that to happen as that can dent their reputation so they are using a good portion of their money to improve their security but maybe some hackers will target unpopular sites because they know that it's more easier to enter even if the amount that they will be getting isn't that much. You said security isn't all but I think that trustworthiness is already included there.
1110  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Martingale Betting Strategy on BlackJack, how effective it is? on: August 03, 2022, 09:29:53 AM
Am not sure if this is applicable in Black jack but it has been proven that Martingale is only for those who have a Big or huge capital to bet in and small time gamblers wont afford doing it so this is only a limited chances .
and also its not promoted for the majority of gamblers as we knew we are mostly looking for happiness and also for small profit and then go out of the table .
As long as there is no law which restricts about what strategy you can use in a blackjack on a site that you are playing then you are good to go of applying the method. See if it is really working for you or not but I think it will work on the early tries and when you feel that the losses is getting consistent then maybe that is the time stop playing and comeback again the next day or two.

If you don't have a big capital then you can start with a little as 8 sats per bet as I think lower than that won't trigger the martingale anymore. If you are looking forward on playing to have fun then there is no need to use such strategy as that will only make you bust faster.
1111  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Safest Exchanges in the World on: August 02, 2022, 08:43:52 PM
I know you should always have your coins on a hardware wallet.

But for my trading position I don't want to put the coins on a hardware wallet because that would be too cumbersome but I want to distribute the coins on several exchanges.

In your opinion, what are the most secure exchanges in the world, i.e. where can I be most sure that the exchange will not go bankrupt, be hacked, etc.?
If you have lots of cryptos then yes it would be better to store them in a hardware wallet because number 1 is you can easily afford to get one even the best quality in the market today and number 2 is that hardware wallets are known to be more robust than the commonly used online wallets.

I see that you are also trader and its indeed hassle to just withdraw or depo the coins in an exchange every time you feel the need to trade, not only that but its also time and money consuming (the fees) so why not store a good portion of your coins inside the exchange? Binance and kuckoin are only two of the most safest exchange that I know. I only cant assure that they won't be hacked but maybe they can return your money if ever something bad happens to them.
1112  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The characteristics of people who are addicted to online gambling on: August 02, 2022, 02:42:45 PM
Pretty easy.
You are addicted once you think you are doing a wrong thing continuously.
It's hard to reject that desire , to keep playing even you know you have nothing left.
At that point you are in a dangerous position to get yourself in a dangerous actions against yourself.

The solution pretty easy as well , as long as you have a strong will to recover from those dark times ... you could always back to where you belong as a regular guy with busy time in your daily routine.
What if you are just paranoid? And you think you did something wrong but you didn't actually while those who are truly addicted in the game are the one's who think they are right and won't agree to other people who questions their behavior. Therefore I disagree on your opinion that being addicted is measured on how we think if we are right or wrong.

I think there are sites which conducts a test to see if you are now an addicted gambler or not. Maybe that can help better to know your conditions. The people around you can also tell if what are your status in gambling if you are still normal or you will need to do some actions. We need to follow them if we want to change.

In the altcoins, there will really be a lot of changes and I always get to see those conversations that something might happen to replace bitcoin at the top. I cannot fathom what they're thinking if bitcoin has already proved its worth for so many years.

They're comparing it to old tech companies like Nokia, Blackberry, etc. But they cannot realize that bitcoin is no the same from those companies that has to keep with their products up-to-date setting whilst for bitcoin.

It is the market that makes it up-to-date. I'm sure that many from the top 10 will be replaced by the next bull run but one thing will remain, bitcoin as #1.
I think the problem is that it’s an "aim" not reality. I mean you do not have to be higher than bitcoin, but it sure doesn't make sense if you create a project with the sole understanding that you will never replace bitcoin. What I always say about the comparison is thinking yourself as a sports player.

If you are going against Nadal, you can't go in to a game with him thinking that you will lose or he is better, you have to think that he is old now, and he is not as good as he used to be, you are better, you are more talented etc etc, you have to tell yourself that otherwise what is even the point of going up against him, just leave. Same for projects, they need to think they will be above bitcoin one day, they have to, not because it needs to be reality, but because otherwise what’s the point of creating a new one?
1114  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will you be in favor of Gold or Bitcoin !! on: August 01, 2022, 06:59:43 PM
I can’t compare these two. I have my money in both of them and it seems that they are good for long term trading rather than short term gains. I have a bigger picture in mind and I am not really much influenced by whatever is happening in the market at the moment.
Why you can't compare them? Tell me, are you afraid to know their con's? and maybe after knowing it, that will discourage you to put your money on one of them. Fine if that is what you want. Owning the two still have a benefit since both of their value are known to grow over time.

It's okay to not care of the news or what is happening around because the coin that you hold are not those new coins which needs a lot of supervision, not only because their value can drop or they can turn into a scam later on but also because they can do some updates or migration which requires hodlers do some action to obtain the new version of the coin.
1115  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why Bitcoin is valuable? on: August 01, 2022, 04:17:41 PM
The idea of bitcoin being finite is not the real reason why we care about the price of it. The real reason why we think it worths something is the fact that nobody controls it. USD or Euro or anything else could become less valuable due to inflation all because there are people at the top who make it so. But, bitcoin is not touched by anyone or controlled by anyone and that is why we care about it so much.

I would rather lose all my money in bitcoin, then keep it in dollar and have it slowly become less valuable. Any investment made in fiat would be racing towards inflation and hoped that it wouldn't be this low, and that's why there is crypto, it's the main reason why it was created.
This is what the people are counting on. There is no inflation with it, and yes there is a "little" inflation in guise of mining rewards but that is nothing compared to how much money we are talking about. And that means we are going to be pretty upset when we find out that fiat doesn't have that at all, billions do not still realize that.

You could literally print money to make dollar worth 1 cent euro, but they won't, yet they "can" and that is the scary part. If we are going with the fiat route then we are going to regret that forever because if you go back 10 years, 20-30-40-50 and you will realize that things only get more expensive and crypto is a way to protect that.

Beth Mead is the first English player to win the Golden Boot 𝐚𝐧𝐝 be named Player of the Tournament at a senior World Cup or European Championship. She was fantastic throughout the tournament and surprised me with her game sense and goal scoring ability. Entertaining match on the whole and reminds us all that women's football is actually improving leaps and bounds as the years go by.
An amazing success for England after 1966 their first title in soccer as they never won in men's event but their women's make them proud with this first win in UEFA and surely this is going to be open doors for their more success in these sports because currently they are most watched League around the world but sadly never have any good win in any big event. In front of 87000 fans and having team like Germany as opponent it's never been easy to win but these brave ladies done and write their names in history books with golden words.

Beth Mead is surely deserved this award as she's done good job from start of event to end and give good win against few quality teams which is surely a big success for the player and team.

I also admit that the game was much better under Christophe Galtier than Pochettino,
we can see that the game is much more collective and doesn't depend on just a few players,
despite the negative news about Neymar I never doubted him because he is one of the best players
After watching first game of new season under new coach look like things are changing and team is going to be better in discipline and performance if they play like this then surely we are going to have positive development in their game and good chances for having better ending in the Champions League because this is important they play like a complete unit for having good results at top level games.

Neymar is doing good, and he needs to be better and accomplished in big games because now this season is testimonial for him here in PSG if he is not going to be as management wants then surely they are going to offload him as they are already having no positive view about him in this team.
1118  Economy / Economics / Re: Russia's economy is 'imploding' on export decline, economists claim on: August 01, 2022, 09:01:29 AM
There are no doubt that the United States is the largest arms exporter in the world and the majority of their revenue is derived from the sale of arms, which contributes to the growth of their economy. If there is no war, who do they sell weapons to, so I also agree with you that America is the mastermind of most of the wars in the world. No one benefits more than them, one way or another they are always manipulating all that chaos, unfortunately Ukraine has become the target this time.
This was is an exception because the benefit of US in this war is not monetary as we know they haven't been "selling" weapons to Ukraine but "donating" it with a huge billion dollar budget dedicated. Also this conflict is causing high inflation in United States which is damaging their economy. There is also a secondary damage as US dollar is being dumped as reserve currency slowly but surely.

The benefit is mostly geopolitical for US as every day Russia is stuck in Ukraine it is increasing the cost for Russia. Every asset they lose, their military becomes 1 asset weaker. This is why US is all for prolonging the conflict.
It also weakens Europe and increases their dependence on US while keeping the dumping petrodollar alive.
Considering USA has a bigger military budget than 25 next nations combined, Russia doesn't have a thing they can do about it. Sure USA wouldn't give "all" to Ukraine, there is no way, but they could keep on spending that kind of money and weapons and other stuff to help Ukraine until Russia is broke.

Definitely, it looks like Russia can do this much longer and they are doing financially fine "now", but the moment they realize they do not have too many more soldiers left to send, and too many weapons to attack with, I agree that those asset numbers will force them to stop and USA could prolong this as long as they want. They have the assets for it, and they are not the ones dying.

I am doing trading since more than Four years and earning good  but i want more capital for big trade setups, so any pro trader please suggest me that how can i raise fund for my trading.

I know nothing about  fundraising so please guide me through this process for my better future.
I only know about those ico's, ieo, ido's, etc, where you need to offer a coin or create your own project before you get started but maybe this is possible in your case? Where the scope of the project is like you said for you to trade and once you earn something, those token hodlers can also get a return and maybe add some twist or utility for the tokens that you offer.

Else, you can just ask someone here the forum or on those lending platforms to borrow a capital since you said you are confident with your ability. This one seems quicker and more guaranteed than the first one that I suggest. There's also a fundraising website but I know that most of the people that uses it are looking for help like if them or one of their family members are ill, so I am not sure if there are people who will donate money for your case.

Perhaps you are right. The Sri Lankan team has improved a lot. I would say the performance of their batsmen has stabilized. Especially the top order players are playing well. But all the matches were held in Sri Lanka. If you want to do well in the next World Cup, the Sri Lankan board should definitely organize the series outside the country. But Sri Lanka will not play any more series before the World Cup.
No one was expecting Srilanka to draw a series against team like Australia and Pakistan, in both series Srilanka lost one game and won the second game. Its good that Srilanka cricket is reviving and there next goal should be to win series held outside Srilanka.
Even though they are giving much better than expected but still this all is at home on their own pitches now they are going to be visited New Zealand and this could be the biggest challenge for them because if they are able to perform good then surely it's going to improve their confidence, and they are going to be having better place in League table for WTC final 2023 as well.

New Zealand which is defending champions in Test Championship and already lost their for last two teams looking for better results as well hopefully this could be good contest between these two struggling teams and series is very important for Sri Lanka instead of New Zealand, let's watch what happened here and who could be crowned winner.
