1121  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Gambling earn someone a living on: March 06, 2023, 11:21:57 PM
On before now gambling was seen as a dirty habit and was painted black in the society because way back the society believes any gambler have so many bad habits too like doing drugs which most gamblers was mafias not just mafias but rich people .
That was then, but now it has become a cash cow for the government and the entertainment portal of the rich and famous, we can say that gambling now is elevated because of the money generated for the government, and some of its patrons are the rich and famous
Even now the scenario is different, there is not much of positive things about gambling. People always see it something a crime because of few incidents that have happened around the locality. Even now almost everyone wants to have their gambling activities to be hidden from others. Not because of they win/loss, but to avoid the term he's a gambler.

So my question now is that can someone use gambling as a means of earning living?

Only the government and the operators can, but for gamblers, they have to rely on luck to make a profit but not something to make a living out of it, others who can make money from gambling are workers and some companies that rely on the gambling industries, like the food caterer and entertainers for physical casinos.
As said, governments and the Gambling platforms make good money. Very limited number of people are there to have a life out of gambling. Here the important thing lifestyle won't be stable, we can see variation depending on the winnings made.

With billion dollars we don't wanna risk anymore. We can just invest into best cryptocurrencies and take rest. I won't get into creating a gambling platform for which my choice will be creating a physical platform that lets to educate people. Maybe a separate University teach about cryptocurrency will be my choice. Part of that will be research about gambling, because I find gambling as one of the industry that have grown big through cryptocurrency as well as the industry that supported with the growth of bitcoin in the beginning days.

Have it in mind to go into long-term investment for you to have the profit you desire together with your wife consent
Since he wants to invest in Bitcoin by selling gold jewelry, he should invest in long term instead of short term investment. Short term investment will definitely bring some profit but long term investment will give more profit over time. But the more important thing is that since investing in Bitcoin you have to hold it for a few years. Moreover, according to the international market, the gold market is bullish along with Bitcoin, so you (OP) should keep this in mind if you are going to sell gold jewelry and invest in Bitcoin. If he keeps his wife's jewelery instead of selling it, then the price of jewelery will automatically increase day by day without any risk.
Gold is bullish, but this doesn't gonna profit same as what an user make out of bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies. Short term investment will bring good profit, but this is out of luck and the learning one has got with cryptocurrency. If not, you should have the learning to make profit through trading as there'll be large scale fluctuation regularly. The same can't be expected with gold. Gold is risk free an low profit oriented whereas cryptocurrency is high risk involved and provides with the best profit.
1124  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: More Awareness needed, 100$ or Bitcoin??? on: March 06, 2023, 11:05:57 PM
According to some estimations, there are around 420 million crypto currency users over the world, which equals to nearly 0.06% of the world population. Thus, we can't expect all people to know about Bitcoin and crypto. I know this percentage could differ from one country to another, but the result is the same everywhere. Not all people know about crypto. That might look strange to us as we have been in crypto for years and got used to it. However, Bitcoin still has a long path and some hurdles to overcome before it becomes a global currency.
Yes, this is the real fact. In terms of awareness there are difference between countries. Here the visual looks to be from a western nation for which everyone thinks that they knew well about bitcoin and cryptocurrency which is wrong. Very small percentage of the population is using the Cryptocurrency around the world, and this can differ in the future. In most cases people hadn't used to it. This makes them find prefer the cash against the bitcoin.
1125  Economy / Speculation / Re: Do you think BTC would rise again? on: March 05, 2023, 11:57:30 PM
No matter how low the market, surely it'll make a bounce back. Few weeks back we were able to see the price around $17k, and from that point the market bounced and reached to the level of $25k. This a bounce in the market. Maybe it could've taken time, but that shows the growth. This is very simple to under, in the growth chart between years the change is massive and not everyone were able to predict it precise. Maybe when we predict for bounce in market it can move downwards.
1126  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How will you feel when your government make BTC legal? on: March 04, 2023, 11:59:39 PM
It helps in creating more space for cryptocurrency and it's awareness. People need to understand well about it and get into the market. When there is support from the government, the scams in the name of cryptocurrency can be reported and the same helps in creating good reputation for cryptocurrency Market.
1127  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - 2nd Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: March 03, 2023, 11:59:27 PM
It has been great match so far in the German bundesliga today in the encounter between Brusia Dortmund and Rb Leipzig, I will say that this match is crucial because of how important it is to both teams but when I consider the two team form I will give it to the host team which is Brusia Dormund because they have performed very well this season and also consistent in all round both in ball control in other words ball possession, the away team is also good but we can't compare their recent form with that of the host team.
Dortmund have played well and won the match 2-1. The goals came at the 21st and 39th minute. Leipzig had the best in terms of pass accuracy, ball possession and shots on target. However they weren't able to turn those to be goals until the 74th minute.

With the win Dortmund makes a seven points lead on the points table. With this Dortmund makes its ten wins in a row. From the beginning of the match Leipzig scared the Dortmund with their shots. Possibly it is their bad luck this time.

Majority haven't come across this casino and this is an attempt to scam users. We need to be careful using it. An unknown gambling platform, even with the popular ones we were able to see clone and which doesn't have any difference until we see it closer. This looks like the night version and day version of the platform.

1129  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: March 03, 2023, 11:34:35 PM
I think atm tickets are dirt cheap for WPL but they should continue this strategy of free tickets. Their main source of revenue is media rights anyway, which earned them enough amount so they can afford it easily.

Media rights was sold for ₹951 crores (2023-27 cycle), which was 5x more than what the BCCI expected. Given that there are 22 matches in this season, there is a potential to earn ₹10 crore plus from the ticket sales, which is not a small amount (almost 5% of the annual media rights amount). And I believe that there is enough fanfare for the women's game in India to achieve this figure. Tickets are priced from ₹100 onwards. But I agree that a limited number of tickets can be distributed for free. Maybe 5,000 tickets per match. Anyway, thousands of tickets are given as complementary to the judges, IAS/IPS, politicans.etc. So why not a few for the common people?
These are tactics to gather more and more people for audiences to attract their interest in WIPL ( cheap tickets, giving tickets for free) as its new   women's will definitely come to watch to support .
This should be a motivating factor for rest of Asian countries to organize their women leagues.
Slowly women too getting better opportunity to play cricket league and keep themselves busy. Following this more countries could start their league for women. This will help them personally improve their career as well as have consistency in performance. When they play at certain time interval, surely the performance won't be the same as the previous match. Australia have got the strong league for Women. Maybe India will place its position next to Australia and later takes the first position same as IPL did with Big Bash League.

Islamabad United won the match by 4 balls and 6 wickets remaining, Azam Khan scored 71 runs and is declared player of the match .
Karachi Kings gave a hufe target but their hardship I'd their baling side which is the reason for today's loss.
Imad wasim scored 92 runs and played an exceptional innings.
None could've thought this to be a win for Islamabad United. The same team in its previous match scored just 90 runs. Today the same team have chased the target of 201 runs. Remarkable performance from Azam Khan, if not the wickets could've continued to fall. No bowlers were able to stop Islamabad United batters from scoring. Only Shoaib Malik have managed to have a bowling economy of 5 rpo and rest of the bowlers have 10+ rpo economy. With the win Islamabad United have moved to the third position and the heat is increasing.
1131  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin ATM Deposit Exchange Rate shocks on: March 03, 2023, 11:22:19 PM
This incident serves to be an eye opener, because most of the time users never look for the fees. Then onwards it is must to have watch the fee prior to withdrawal/deposit. Our earnings going into someone's pocket without reason needs to be stopped. Very limited regions have got Bitcoin ATMs and these act of increased fee will surely generate negativity among the cryptocurrency users who have been using cryptocurrency for different purposes (shopping, buying services,etc). Concern person who had set the ATM should be contacted by the ATM provider an necessary steps need to be taken at the earliest.

Japan is probably the best one at the moment. South Korea does have a great team as well though.

But yeah, in general the Asian countries don't really shine in the football arena. Not sure why, maybe they lack a bit of passion for it?

They do seem to have been excellent in other areas so I'm thinking maybe they are not that interested in football.
I admit this is an interesting question...

But honestly, I don't know, maybe that happens because part of the Asian population is not a big fan of football and it's not a very widespread and practiced sport there.

It is not a habit or a tradition of the Asian people, unlike Brazil, that when a large part of the population is born, they already receive a soccer ball as a gift or some kind of uniform from a Brazilian team or even, they already begin to have contact with football at the beginning of school life.

Of course, what I said is just a presumption on my part, but I believe that this may be or may have happened to some Asian countries.

From the beginning maybe it got fixed as the westerners game. Maybe if some other country have ruled over the Asian countries in the past football might've gained more popularity. Most of the nations were under the British rule and the officers during those days used to spend time on staged fights and cricket. For that reason cricket have got good support from certain part of the continent and some part prioritise athletes. Slowly the transition could happen as more people have begun to give importance to football.

~snip~

If Australia's top or middle order doesn't perform well, it's most probably game-over for them in my opinion.
Don't forget our own top-middle order lol

They are not in good nick either. Rohit only played 1 match winning knock, Gill is a replacement but he needs to grab an opportunity with both hands. Pujara looked way too good in the last inning but he needs to repeat this in the next match. Kohli is just making Pikachu face, every time he gets out. Iyer also needs to take responsibility.
The Indore pitch got 3 demerit points from ICC and was stated of poor quality which did not offer a good competition between bat and bowl. I think it's pretty much correct considering how short the match lasted it was too skewed for spinners ball not coming on the bat at all. I don't mind pitches favouring spinners or pacers but matches should alteast last till 4th day always on international level. That's the whole point of a test match. Pitch is first two matches was still fine as some or the other team managed to bat for some time atleast but this time both teams struggled badly.
It is not about the pitch. Just think of the performance coming from the Indian batters. Whatever the demerits, the home players should've the better understanding and perform well. Here everything took place in the opposite way with Australia playing well against the home team. All that required is the pressure free game, Australia in its second innings have scored 78 runs losing a wicket. They didn't had any pressure and it is already known the match is theirs.

Based on my understanding about the market, the volatility will continue forever. Maybe over the days on increased usage we'll encounter lower percentage of volatility, but no one could assure on it. The success of the market is its volatility. Getting scared of such market happens around, but the right understanding lets them make use of it as an opportunity.

Out of volatility we'll see our portfolio experiencing big changes in no time. On that we shouldn't be worried, but we should have our focus on how to keep hold of it for the bullish market and benefit out of it. Not everyone able to do it, most people get into panic and intends to sell when the market turns bearish.

It's because the sport for most asian are like about physical and contact sports. Now after the recent world cup, it has opened a lot of eyes that Asian's aren't just limited for those type of sports.

But it has encouraged a lot to get into Football and that's why there will be more aspiring great football players that we might see in the next decade coming from this continent.
Even before the World Cup football is there in Asian countries, but the importance and infrastructure available is very limited. In specific specific region of the country used to have good number of clubs and players. With the football world cup there is big awareness and people have known much about football. Once again the participation of Ronaldo into Saudi Arabia Pro League have made things even better and made people read about football in everyday news. Few days it was Ronaldo's contract pay that was the discussion everywhere. This is how things move, and it tempts even the unknown person to see who is Ronaldo.

We can just assume what could've happened for him. Only God and the user himself knows the real thing happening with the wallet. Based on the holding, he/she is one of the early investor. Maybe he have set the wallet aside and making use of other earnings for his life. For users who question whether cryptocurrency can make you millionaire, here is the answer for the question.

When we calculate the ethereum ath price this will go much in value than what is being mentioned.
1137  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: XRP future looks shaky and uncertain on: March 02, 2023, 11:23:36 PM
This has become something that many crypto lovers know, which is why at the moment XRP is only used as a coin to make a profit because of its up and down price movements but more than that XRP has no future, the only advantage is that this coin is still listed on many major exchanges so it looks like this coin has a future but actually it doesn't.
actually there are only few big exchange that listed XRP such as Binance and some but majority of big exchange had delisted this year ago and that alarms other investors so they leave this coin.
and at some chance you are correct that it looks like this coin has no future same is the reason why I sell all my Ripple last year and now hold a different coin that has no big problem like this one.

This issue has been running for a long time since Ripple has been facing different charges but the good thing is, it's still being trusted by many investors and it's still actively moving and reaching a good spot despite the challenges that it has been facing. For me, as long as it's being listed on a top exchange, it is still worth buying and holding. It can still be profitable, especially during the bullish season.
Maybe those investors are still  in hopes that one day this coin will reach the top again like what it does in the past years and also what this is facing now is a serious offence that they will need to take longer than in was.
Ripple is one of the most promising coin when I entered crypto market but nowadays? I am starting to fear that chances.
Thats true, once it was a hard competing asset for ethereum. At some instance it took the second position on the coinmarketcap. The market being controlled is the major reason for the market being described negatively. Even now this has got more products and partnership with different firms. In all means the centralised power can be felt and the same makes it easy manipulative.

The best time to be a Manchester United fan is now, you must be happy at the end of every of their games, you can’t lose hope in them till the game is over, their late winnings, their comeback goals and their perseverance is non to compare with. Ten hang is the man! United is the club, Old Trafford is our pride. GGMU.
What a comeback. The first goal have come for West West Ham United at the 54th minute. Following this goals have come for Manchester United at 77th, 90th and in the additional time 95th minutes. At the first half without goals kept both the team in good confidence. The goal coming from West Ham makes them even more confident. However it looks like the momentum is with the Manchester United from the beginning. Finally they took credit of it with the three late goals.

Peshawer Zalmi vs Karachi Kings
In this 17th match of HBL PSL Peshawer Zalmi will face his rival Karachi kings but due to injury of amir the rivality will be little bit off color but anyway king Baber are available so don't worry everyone will get full fun through baber cover drive. Peshawer performance are not doubt awesome they score 200+ against the strongest bowling lineup of PSL so they will easy manage against the Karachi kings. Toss has been done Karachi won the toss and allow Peshawer to bat first. Now let's see who will take 4th position in PSL standing because this match will decide.
Karachi was on 178/8 and Zalmi won by 28 runs.
Good day for Zalmi and bad day for Karachi - The captain for Karachi Kings says they need a lot of improvement in the next matches.
No doubt Karachi bowling play well they dismissed two main player of Peshawer in first over of the match but later Peshawer middle order big Powell , TKC and young talent haseeb-ullah crushed them brutally and build this handsome target of 197. Peshawer bowling lineup were weak in previous matches as expected but giving chance to H.Omarzai , mujeeb-ur-Rehman, Amir.jamal put the Zalmi bowling on fire they combinely take all eight wickets and take match from them. Now finally Peshawer strongely take 4th postion in PSL standing under captaincy of Baber Azam 👑
Even when the wicket fall continues Roman Powell and Haseebullah Khan have scored runs at good strike rate. This is why they were able to make good target. On the other side Karachi Kings had a better start from Wade, but the middle order didn't contribute good. Bowling is good, because during the 15th over itself the required runrate have gone above 15 runs which itself a big pressure at the end overs.
1140  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: March 01, 2023, 10:49:12 PM
How many teams have got different squad for test and other formats of cricket. Yesterday England team played test match against New Zealand and lost it. Today England team have played against Bangladesh and won the match. This is good, because more players get opportunity to play for the country than just the same team playing every format of cricket.

India can try this kind of different squad for different format of cricket. BCCI have categorised the players on some category and have different salary slab.

I think the idea of having a different squad or multiple squads is actually very good. Especially for those teams which does have a lot of players. We know that the top teams like India, England, and Australia does have a lot of player waiting for a chance to play. If they have multiple squads, a lot of young players will be able to get the chance of playing and a lot of young talents will also come forward.

Another thing is, having multiple squads is also going to ensure that one country is being able to play in multiple tournaments and also against multiple countries at the same time.
Creating space for many players to play against different countries seems to good with the multiple squad. Based on the players availability those mentioned teams can go with this. However playing multiple tournaments in the same schedule doesn't seem to be fair. It'll be simply annoying, because we can't watch either of the match.
