Most persons purchase  most items using Bitcoin transactions I am of the opinion of hodling instead of spending pls is that a positive mindset?
Bitcoin is an alternative to fiat, meaning that if you think bitcoin is money then it should be wise to spend it for your needs. Some users spend it on gambling, buying valuables, computers, medical expenses, or anything else that accepts bitcoins as a means of payment. So it's a wise choice as long as you agree with the payment method. If you are planning bitcoin as an investment asset, then it is unwise to spend your bitcoins on something that is not profitable.

It's no surprise that Napoli won again, but Lecce looked like they could take something from this game. Now there is Milan match. Both teams failed to score yet. If this match ends like this, it will be very bad for Milan. Empoli hasn't even shot in 80 minutes. Milan took 15 shots and failed to score. Giroud and Leao are newly entered to the game. Instead of Origi, Giroud should've started in the starting lineup. Milan can pay for the rotation, if they don't score in the remaining time.
Empoli totally defended themselves against Milan, it's a really boring strategy game to watch. Milan must immediately find a solution to get a goal because the match is almost over. Empoli's defense was good, but Milan struggled to find good ways to score. There have been 17 shots so far of which 3 are on target, but somehow Empoli still manage to defend well. It would be a big loss for Milan if this match ended in a draw, especially after Inter also drew against Salernitana.

I no doubt how good Frank Lampard as a Chelsea player previously, but I'm not really sure about his quality as a coach. There is nothing special with Frank Lampard's career as a coach until now. But Chelsea management must have a reason to hire him as Chelsea interim manager. Well, at least Lampard knows everything about Chelsea since he was a player there and he ever managed Chelsea from 2019 to 2021. I hope Lampard can improve Chelsea performance, the fans have already been disappointed many times with Chelsea new coaches.
We've all had our doubts about Lampard, but it's a good decision as long as Chelsea haven't found the coach they're looking for. Julian Nagelsman and Luis Enrique are two coaches who I think are much better because of their experience, but I would not be totally against the appointment of Lampard as interim coach. We'll see how Lampard proves, We'll see how it proves Lampard, I think he has something good to prove to the fans.
1184  Economy / Speculation / Re: Price guess for March on: April 06, 2023, 09:28:33 PM
The market recovery has been gradual, but the +23% gain last march is a significant price boost for the recovery so far and overall the market this year has indicated it will recover from the bearish past, we expect the $30k price tag to be hit soon in april as some potential news about Microstrategy has added bitcoin assets could trigger higher gains for the next stage of the market.
I think it's still difficult to price in April even though Microstrategy has encouraged more confidence in the majority of investors. Bitcoin price is still having a hard time getting back to the $29k level so far after being hit in March, so somehow I'm still not thinking about maybe $30k above before that arrives.

We may have arrived at an early bullish stage, but the market is still having a hard time ignoring FUD so the price is likely to have hard time finding resistance above $28k or $30k. But since it's only the first week of April, it's possible to expect that resistance to be hit.
1185  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin can't become world currency (at least now). on: April 06, 2023, 09:09:55 PM
Bitcoin has the potential to become a world currency, but there are several challenges and obstacles that it needs to overcome before it can achieve that status. Here are some factors to consider., *Volatility *Adoption *Regulations *Infrastructure and Competition.
However; it's possible that Bitcoin could play a more significant role in the global economy in the future.
There are too many challenges for bitcoin to become a global currency, but one good thing about bitcoin today is that it has real use cases. The growing adoption of bitcoin, its increasing demand around the world can give hope that in the future bitcoin will become the currency considered by many world governments.

Of course, currently the regulations of many countries have not legalized bitcoin as a currency, but hopefully this will change over time. Now there are a lot of people in different countries who no longer believe in banks, they are looking for bitcoin as an alternative solution, and if at the same time the government is against bitcoin instead of supporting it, then I think the system will only get worse.

It's not over yet Newcastle have scored another 2 goals now the final score is 1-5 Newcastle is still safe in 3rd place because score more goals
Newcastle have been back on track in the past month whereas before they played poorly at home or away now the situation is changing
What do you think about Newcastle chances for a champions league ticket is there a possibility?
Today I am not surprised by Manchester United's victory, but what surprised me is that Newcastle is increasingly establishing itself as a classy team in the Premier League. Newcastle won the game 1-5 at home to West Ham, that was fantastic even though Manchester United and Newcastle are level on points.

So in my opinion, if Newcastle can maintain this form for the rest of the season, then they deserve to win a ticket to the Champions League next season. Tottenham are only 3 points behind, while Newcastle have one match in hand which is still possible to get them an additional 3 points.

as the host of course barcelona was really humiliated with 4 goals without reply, benzema gave a surprise to all barcelona supporters, he deserved to be the best player because he could make a hat trick in today's el clasico match, this victory at the same time aborted barcelona advancing to the copa del final Rey and led Real Madrid to the Copa Del Rey final against Osasuna. congrats madrid
Real Madrid make big win in El Clasico determination at Camp Nou with 4 goals. Benzema's hat-trick is absolutely incredible, but what's most incredible is that people wake up from their sleep just to say we won easily where the previous day was tough. LOL

I only believe that both teams have the same chance to win and qualify, and whoever it is, of course they are the ones who deserve it. Barcelona failed to defend well throughout the match, but Madrid's victory today only confirms that Barcelona cannot always win in El Clasico so that Madrid have hope for another title this season.

April fool Events
|Brief description of what happened
01/04/2020
||This was the year that Coronavirus spread and fear was around everybody, so the administrator decided to raise the stakes by displaying digital virus codes on posts, comments, and profiles. This made profiles appear as if they had been compromised by a virus, which was somewhat frightful given how close social distances were at the time and how little movement there was. However, it was just a traditional April fool's joke.

Looks like the link for the April Mob virus isn't updating, so here it is in case you forgot it. Here is one of theymos posts for reference. But anyway, good job from you, man. I just want to say April Fools 2023 is fun, if we could collect bitcoin as easily as birds eat coins - that would be great. LOL

Roll Eyes If you choose to see-as-evil acts which were clearly done in the spirit of fun & good faith, then you're creating demons for your personal living hell...

There is a rare worldwide shared cultural experience going on in the form of the pandemic and the resulting unprecedented social distancing policies. It's similar to a world war in terms of its widespread cultural significance. So this little game came to my mind to connect with it. As with several past bitcointalk.org April Fools things, it's more of a new/weird/fun way for people to interact with the forum and generate discussion, not a joke as such. Certainly it wasn't meant to somehow poke fun at the many real tragedies created by the coronavirus situation; it was meant to connect with the huge thing dominating the minds/lives of basically everyone on Earth.

I avoid this bet because in my opinion this is a very risky match to bet on. The two clubs are both experiencing inconsistencies that make me not put so much trust in them.
Such an important match, but unfortunately both clubs are still on a bad record. I just want to see them play without the stakes I'm in. And also my important point is when Chelsea can do better, then it can be concluded that their coach is the problem.
That's a good decision in my opinion, some people may also make the same decision. I think this match is interesting because both are big teams. The first half had ended, but the two teams drew each other.

Chelsea were good in the way they developed the game and found chances, but several times Liverpool found shots on target that threatened Kepa. Chelsea still make a lot of mistakes and for me it's still a bit boring especially when they make the wrong pass, it's a wasted opportunity. For the second half, I think the game should be more interesting than the first, otherwise it will be 0-0 until the end.
1190  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: April 04, 2023, 07:33:09 PM
For Atletico Madrid, we know the best result they can get is to get third place in the table as they do right now and finish the season in this position while they can still think about Real Marid's position and they need five points for it but considering the current performance of both teams I don't think if that's even possible for Atletico Madrid to reach the second position of the table until the end of this season even if they show the same performance we saw against Real Betis.
Atletico Madrid just need to maintain their form and keep their chances in the European zone next season, which seems to be the most realistic target for them at the moment. It's also not important to finish in second place even though it's a nice achievement. But in my opinion, it would be better if Atletico Madrid only focused on good performance instead of hoping to finish second.

This week Atletico Madrid will travel to the Vallecas Stadium, the headquarters of Rayo Vallecano. I think it's a match that will benefit Atletico Madrid because Vallecano is not in the best form at the moment. So far Atletico Madrid are safe in the standings even though they are 6 points away from Sociedad and 9 points from Real Betis.
1191  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: April 04, 2023, 07:01:58 PM
As you are expecting Chelsea to win their match, that's how many football fans are expecting Liverpool to win their match also. After Liverpool won over Manchester United with a 7-goal margin they are yet to win any of their premier league matches till now. It is expected of them to at least win their match against Chelsea which is not in a good form(lest I forget that both teams are in their worst form of play). It will be too hard to predict the club that 3 points to go. A point for both clubs is what I predicted because of their head-to-head matches.
The fact is true because both teams have fans all over the world. But there was a good chance about Chelsea today, I think after Graham Potter was sacked there was a lot of people expecting Chelsea to get back to their best form. However, Liverpool is not a weak team, this must be attention for by Chelsea, considering that Liverpool also really want to win the match after losing the previous match.

Klopp emphasized that Liverpool must be wary of Chelsea because this team can surprise them and they must prepare a good scheme to anticipate it. For me, the current depth of Chelsea's squad is good, it's just that the strategy carried out by Graham Potter so far hasn't gone smoothly for the team. But let's see today, I hope they makes a lot of difference.
1192  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: April 03, 2023, 07:36:27 PM
In the last two matches PSG have lost and in fact, PSG cannot score and I think this is a strange result for me personally. Also, with a result like this, then I think maybe the PSG squad no longer has the desire to win in matches.

If PSG really no longer have the ambition to be able to win, then maybe I will hope that PSG will continue to experience defeats so that PSG is overtaken by other teams. If that happens, then it looks like PSG will be better off without winning any titles this season, considering their poor mentality.
I'm going to have a different opinion on this mainly because I watched the game. Messi and Mbappe repeatedly tried to score from the several opportunities that were created, but all of them failed due to Lyon's tight defense and good goalkeeper performance. I saw PSG really wanted to score, but just failed. On the other hand, you could say that Lyon is very focused on defending while taking advantage of counterattacks and set pieces to score goals, I think that's what I saw from the PSG vs Lyon game yesterday.

So I don't agree if you say PSG have no desire to win, that can only be said if you don't watch the match. I don't mean to contradict, but it is a fact. Then from that too, PSG lacks creative players to push for more attractions when attacking. The experience and technical ability of the coach to be the cause.
1193  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: April 03, 2023, 07:28:17 PM
Potter seems to have to realise he does not deserve to coach Chelsea. The 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa has given a huge disappointment to supporters. Indeed, Aston Villa played very well, kpier Emiliano Martinez successfully frustrated Chelsea players. He deserves to be the best player last night. Aston Villa successfully implemented a deep defensive strategy and scored from counterattacks. Mudryk also created plenty of chances but Martinez was always able to deny the ball.
Emiliano Martinez was outstanding in that match, so I think it's only natural that he gets the MOTM. However, the highlight was not Chelsea's defeat, but the dismissal of Graham Potter as if to give Chelsea new enthusiasm to return to competing in the Premier League.

I would even say his sacking was pushed back too much and Chelsea gave him too much time which in turn only cost the team a lot. Now that Potter is over, he has earned an apology and a final tribute for his service to Chelsea over the past few months, I now hope that a new face that can freshen up the team's form can be brought in.
1194  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why Banks are Failing and Crypto adoption is at its Highs on: April 03, 2023, 06:58:38 PM
Bank failures are nothing new in the wake of economic uncertainty. In the past there were many cases where banks collapsed but then got up and grew strong and expanded their network. One of the things that makes a bank collapse is government intervention which is increasingly irrational, it will affect the psychology of customers so that many people withdraw their money from the bank.

I think there is a good correlation as to why bitcoin has had a positive impact from bank failures. Bitcoin is a decentralized crypto that allows users to maintain good financial privacy. Bitcoin is also not subject to ridiculous government intervention so that on the one hand bitcoin is well regarded as a store of value asset. But I don't think everyone will regard the same thing, especially when they consider price volatility to be the underlying risk.

3-0 for Milan vs Napoli, what is even happening this evening  Shocked.

This result is a very bad news for Inter, they are in very risky position now.
Even though Napoli dominated the game, Milan really did something good today. Milan took advantage of this best momentum to show their quality, and I think these 3 goals are clear proof that they are not finished fighting for a place in the top 4 this season.

The great thing is, this is Napoli's home ground and Milan are having a party. Now 0-4 to win Milan.
1196  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2022/23 Season on: April 02, 2023, 08:03:56 PM
Today they lost to Newcastle which I didn't expect before, because if they don't win then I hope they can draw. But the fact is that they must really experience defeat when they really need victory. What's more problematic is not really the defeat, but how they play. They didn't have many chances in fact they only recorded 1 shot that led to the goal. At least there are still 2 more matches before they compete in the European League, they should be able to improve in those 2 matches.
Sevilla seems to be starting to find good form to win the match. Recently they won 0-2 against Cadiz in the La Liga clash, it is certainly good to think that this team has a chance in the Europa League. If Sevilla can maintain their form against Celta Vigo this weekend then of course they will be very confident to do well against Manchester United.

Manchester United are not at their best in the Premier League, they have lost their last 2/3 matches against Liverpool, Southamton and today against Newcastle. Even so, this match will be very interesting to look forward to considering that the chances of both teams are equally good.
1197  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: April 02, 2023, 07:49:00 PM
You seem right on that because Barcelona's few games back are exceptionally good and at that their pause is a big threat to Real Madrid since they seem to be going to the finals and head to head with Real Madrid.

-Meanwhile, my congratulations go to Real Madrid for winning their matches this weekend.
Barcelona's win is important, Real Madrid's win is also important. Both teams finished the match without conceding a goal, it was the best thing ahead of the second Copa Del Rey semi-final. I think both teams will really get good confidence in the second semi-final later, but anyway Barcelona have a chance to get their home win.

On the other hand, Real Madrid's 0-6 victory will inspire a lot of enthusiasm to strugling against Barcelona in the coming days. I hope it will be the best El Clasico to determine who has the right to advance to the final. Whoever gets to the final I think they're going to win the title this season.
1198  Economy / Speculation / Re: What about the little increase? on: April 01, 2023, 04:31:45 PM
I started accumulating in early 2022, and I will continue accumulating bitcoin regardless of the price this year. Because I will only sell bitcoin when it hits $100k or more.
I don't think this is a bad idea, of course it's good to keep accumulating bitcoin as long as the price is low.
I think this is one of the best ideas for anyone to consider because in the long term the price of bitcoin is projected to be higher than the previous ATH. I don't know if that $100k will be reached, but it's always possible to expect it if we have bitcoin. While I would really like to see if $30k gets hit in April, that is the closest hope before another next bullish.
1199  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: April 01, 2023, 04:11:59 PM
One point is not enough if they still with their initial ambition of winning the French 1 League this season
The Marseille team is give space for Paris Saint Germain away because at the moment they are 6 points adrift, Paris Saint Germain have one match left and if they can win against Lyon tomorrow then the point difference will be 9 points
Paris Saint Germain's defeat before this was hope for Marseille but it's a shame they failed to capitalize on their chances today
I don't think Marseille can win the Ligue 1 title this season as long as they can't consistently win match. A draw in the previous match has given PSG plenty of room to lead the standings with a 9-point lead if they win against Lyon, so it's hard to expect Marseille to top this season even if it's still possible.

I probably wouldn't doubt PSG too much even though they could lose the remaining few match this season, for me PSG is a team that has more chances to win the Ligue 1 title this season.
1200  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: April 01, 2023, 04:00:36 PM
Yes, Manchester City did show a very good performance in that match. They managed to win the match with a pretty convincing score even without the presence of their flagship sticker. Pep Guardiola also showed his class as a coach by making the right decisions in choosing alternative players. And this is a good capital to prepare for facing Bayern Muchen in the UCL league.
It was a good game for Manchester City, of course they dominated Liverpool a lot despite conceding early. I actually didn't think this big match would result in 5 goals but Manchester City are absolutely unstoppable when the players are good enough to create chances.

Previously I was doubtful that Pep Guardiola would be able to win the match from Liverpool, but since the second half started I really found it very difficult for Liverpool to develop their game and that was used by Manchester City to press harder. But nevertheless, this is a very important win considering they have to keep the points gap with Arsenal. Next week Manchester City will travel to Southamton, so this win is also good for maintaining their form before the first leg of the Champions League.
