Mbappe should stay at PSG, all the freedom by the PSG manager is given to him as freely as possible. He has the control to enter or leave players on the pitch as long as Mbappe remains at PSG. I think the policy is too excessive for PSG's class to damage the image of football where they just for the sake of Mbappe don't leave to be willing to enforce such rules. Instead of Mbappe going to Madrid, he couldn't help but make a pretty crazy offer in the history of football.
We do not know who they are going to get as a manager. I know that there has been plenty of talks about Zidane, and pochettino leaving but I am not so sure whats going to happen. If PSG made some decision about the manager situation, it would have been easier to convince Mbappe to stay. If they said a month ago that they will sack Pochettino by the end of the year, and they would get Zidane, then it would have been easier for them to keep Mbappe, because I am sure that Mbappe would love to play for Zidane, one of his heroes while growing up. That's the most important things in the world, there is nothing wrong with that at all.

Do you believe what they are saying? No, I definitely don't. No one can trust what Dokwon and his team say anymore. The only way to restore everyone's trust is for Luna's team to pump money and restore Luna's price but this is not going to happen either because they are not stupid enough to spend their money to save the community. Luna is dead and nothing more should be expected of her, let's take that as an expensive lesson we all must learn.
A criminal is always a criminal, just in case you guys didn't know that do kwon is also involved in a similar scam scheme so chances are that this guy has a plan to scam investors for the 3rd time. I wonder why this guy was still outside roaming around. A big criminal like this should be suffering already inside the jail and got beaten up by other criminals.

The supply of the coin is too huge, I think that was over trillion already and for it to up its price, they will need serious amounts. Amounts that no one can ever imagine. Restoring the price up to a dollar is still going to be a struggle but like you said they are not stupid enough. Scammers are wise guys. They already have the money so why will they need to re deposit it again.

Look at Cambodia, currently having the worst standing right? But surely, they will top the medal tally next SEA Games as the host country.
not really, in the last 2015 SEA Games which was held in Singapore, Singapore placed second in the medal tally with 84 gold and Thailand taking the leading spot with 95 gold. so, being the Host country for SEA Games doesn't mean they'll dominate the competition. that being said, they'll the advantage since they can pick what sports they can add on which they can dominate.
Second place is still a nice spot. That really shows that being a host country can do wonders. The explanation can be is that they are more confident if they are playing within their country and on their country there are many people that will support them as when compare to when they travel on their countries. Didn't knew that a host country can pick their own games, I thought there are other people that manages these things but thanks for the info there.

To host or not, every country's performance will still depend on their determination to win and on how hard they practice. There is no guarantee that Cambodia will top next event but maybe they will? Because they will take this failure as a motivation to push their selves more.

Poverty is a problem since them, a lot of new presidents already came on every country and yet there’s still poverty and seriously in some country it become more worse every year. Stable coin is not the solution, because if its the solution then why Gold still not able to help many even before the time of Bitcoin?

Good governance, no corrupt politicians and good programs can be a big game changer and that poverty level can be improve. I wonder if these kind of government still exist? Because in my country corruptions are getting more worst.
The main solution to this problem of poverty is having good government, a government launder and steal money from its citizens, a government that is going to be transparent and hold everyone accountable for their actions. But this is close to impossible these days.

The government is made up of so many people and is not just one person that is the government, and for that, it’s always a mixture of good and bad people. The bad people will always be there and they are the ones who are making the government bad, and they end up influencing the good ones into the bad things that they are doing.
1345  Economy / Economics / Re: Standard of living on: May 21, 2022, 06:28:51 PM
I recently gave up hoping that I would have a good standard of living. Something unexpected happens at all times and I just need to learn to live with that one way or another. It's obvious that we are not going to end up with anything bad, I am not going to starve, I am not going to be homeless.

However, I will never be able to buy the things that I want to buy or visit the nations/cities that I want to visit. Do you know how much money I need to save in order to go to Rome for example? I would need to save 20% of my salary for 3 years to have a good one week vacation there. Why even have a hope for that? A 300 dollar ps5 in USA, is around 1100 in my nation with shipment and taxes. I just want to wake up, eat, work, eat, netflix, and eventually die. That's all I can afford these days because anything else always goes to payments that are unexpected.
That's life mate. There's always unexpected things that will come in our way but you need to accept it whatever it will be. It was mostly the bad things that are hard but for the good one's, there's no way we will complain on it.

In the human life, there was only two cycle, one is when we are up or positive and the other is when we are down or feeling negative but like you said we can't always stay on one side, so whenever you feel down, just remember it, for you to keep going. In terms of payments how can you say that they are unexpected? Electricity, water, groceries, those are actually expected but if you will only learn how to plan and save, it's possible for you to achieve your dreams.
1346  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: PROS AND CONS OF CRRYPTOGAMBLING. on: May 21, 2022, 04:31:46 PM
at this point of using cryptocurrencies I advise people to use bitcoin because altcoins are already proven that they can drop to almost 0$ and the person will lose all the money they have, after this problem that Luna had people need to be very careful with altcoins so that even when they win big in casinos at the end of the day don't lose everything because the altcoin they used drops to almost 0$
Not all altcoins are scams that can drop to almost zero like what happened with luna/ust recently. Also luna and ust are I think not yet accepted in many gambling sites so no need to worry though there are lots of altcoins that is accepted, that is because not all people are willing to use their bitcoin because they think it was too valuable to gamble and apart from it, bitcoin can sometimes have a higher transaction fee and slow-moving in terms of depositing and withdrawing it but these known issues in bitcoin are not felt in many altcoins.

You are lucky that your country isn't strict in gambling. They are only concerned about the minors and not on the adults whether they became addicted or not because they are already on their right age, they know if what is wrong and right.
1347  Economy / Gambling / Re: The most trusted casinos on BTalk on: May 21, 2022, 03:36:48 PM
I read where a user raised that issue but the thing is it seems that both casinos don't have a representative on this forum to state whether or not the accusation is legit and if it was a mistake on their part and what they have done to address that situation, Gamdom, in particular, have run two promotional campaign here on the forum and to me, that is enough reason for them to protect their image in whatever way their can on the forum by providing answers to the accusation and what they position is on this matter that has lingered on for a while now.
If they don't have a representative then why do they have their own ann threads here? And I think the one that posts that ann thread are considered to be as their representative, although for gamdom it looks like he was a normal user of this forum and is only hired to post the ann thread but for the ltccasino, I assume that the account was related or part of their team because the name of the account was also ltccasino.

I think that representatives will always be biased and protect the company that gives them salary. Gamdom has a campaign that but it was already ended but what about 1xbit? This site is regularly advertised in the forum but until now they don't do anything to protect its image.
1348  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling addiction causing victim to scam his family on: May 21, 2022, 02:49:51 PM
Yes, gamblers should take full responsibility just like shopaholics, alcoholics and other people with addictions. If we start dividing this responsibility between those who advertise (of their product which, when used in reasonable quantities, does no harm) with people who consume it uncontrollably and face unpleasant consequences, we will harm all parties.
Same in cigarette advertisements - "smoking is dangerous to your health"
Same in liquor advertisements - "drink moderately"

Some gambling sites also have a banner or terms pointing to "gamble moderately" or "responsible gambling". Since these companies are promoting their products and services, obviously they won't say stop doing this or that.

We, as a consumer and clients, should be responsible for what we are doing.
Even if they don't say stop gambling, saying gambling responsibly is already a big thing so I salute all gambling companies that have this warning. They are not afraid that people will follow it, making their incomes to get lessen. In the meantime there are still hard headed people that won't follow this advice or any other advices that they hear from their colleagues.

In the story that OP brought to us, the guy would end up his gambling journey if not because of that single email he received. I salute that act because it shows that he is willing to change but scamming your family member or even other people is still not right but I hope he will also stop it. We can give this guy another chance to change his life.
1349  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Luna holders will get new token. on: May 21, 2022, 02:19:26 PM
Luna lose his credibility and all who took any loss should get compensation.
CEO luna will not compensate investors who suffer losses, many crypto companies claim that Luna can rise again, but the CEO doesn't care about that.

Investors who suffer losses they don't ask for compensation, they need burning Luna tokens, it's better than compensation.
If they don't compensate those who lose then it means they will only compensate those who earn? I think that doesn't sound right. They already earn anyway and even if they suffer from a loss, that won't be devastating at all but we should feel sorry for those who lose huge.

Not only the companies but many common individuals still believes that this coin can rise and they are now filling their bags more with more luna but if it's true that ceo of luna don't care anymore then there is no chance for this coin to recover and maybe there's no compensation that is going to happen and most of all there is no burning, whatsoever. Much better if people don't hope too much.
1350  Economy / Economics / Re: Constant defamation of crypto on: May 21, 2022, 11:21:16 AM
Why are so many governments and even people constantly trying to defame crypto?
Because they think that cryptos are now starting to become famous so before that happens, they will stop it. For the governments it can be understandable if why they are doing this. Maybe they don't want crypto to be recognized by the many because they are afraid that if people liked crypto, they will not use fiats anymore.

For a random person that isn't related to the government, I don't really know why they are doing this. I mean what can they get in return for doing this? They are only wasting their time and effort but much better if these people do something that is more valuable so that their family is going to be more proud of them.
1351  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🔥🎲Tower.bet 🎲🔥 New Platform arrived 🎲Crash 🎲 HiLo 🎲 Wheel 🎲Contests 🎲 on: May 20, 2022, 09:41:33 PM
I'm really impressed with the design of this dice game. It looks awesome! The game works like the normal dice game of other casino. But I can't find out the reason of using 5 roll numbers, use of 3 roll number will be enough for the current game set-up. The max multiplier is only 98.50× and the house edge of the game is 3% (I'm not sure about the HE though). Tower.bet will be able to attract huge number of dice game lovers if you decrease the HE and make it 1% only. The game is currently in beta mode, expecting to see more advance feature (auto bet mode) of dice game on your site soon.
The screenshot above, got me, resulted for me to check the game and im surprised that it's way better than the screenshot. The design was cool and I can say unique but not the game because dice game was too common already and there are lots of older dice sites than towerbet. How did you know that the house edge for this game is 3 because I can't see it in the game info but indeed it was high.

Usually most sites only have 2 or 1 house edge. Max multi for their dice game is also low but it would be better if they can increase it over a thousand like on other dice sites but if not then I think I will understand because they are trying to be unique here. It was still in beta mode anyway and maybe there will be changes that will be made.

Scammers are using Telegram as their platform to scam people and to spam even useful channels. If its about discussion, I don't think Telegram is the best market because as what I've told you, the said platform is filled with scammers and spammers. If you want to share or discuss something, you better pick trusted and platforms, especially gambling-related groups and communities.
I also think the same that OP wants to gather like-minded people to the telegram group where he might offer paid predictions of matches etc.
It's always risky to join such groups due to a number of reasons.

By the way has anyone joined the group and found anything useful. Those who join can share their experience here.
It seems that you have predicted it right because upon checking the telegram group, I can see that there was a referral link offered by the admin/bot. The link was bk8. Inside the group we can see that most post are screenshot of the bet made. I think the bets came from bk8.

Some members there also have a bk8 tag on them. It can be obvious that they favor this site and encourage anyone in the group to sign up under their link. This group can be helpful only if the tips given there are accurate and bettors can win at most times. You can check the group by yourself. Just input this name: sportsliveforum on the search box of telegram because clicking the link on the first page is not working.

After almost 2 hours of playing there is no problem but just experienced this in one of the game
Is the problem in my network or from the provider? after I refresh the game back to normal


What is the name of the game so many here will try it whether this is a technical problem or from your network, but when it refreshes back to normal I think it's a network problem not from the provider.

Or tell me the name of the game, I will try several times to bet there to test whether there is a problem or not.
If he presses the back button and still sees the homepage of the casino then the problem is probably on the side of the provider but if the whole site is also experiencing an error then there is no way to access any of the games even if there is no problem with the provider.

I guess the site or the provider is up and running again because I didn't see any errors upon trying them just now. I don't know if how long they have gone but it's nice if they return back immediately, that is important because many gamblers have no life and they can get bored waiting for the maintenance to be over, resulting for them to check out other gambling sites.
1354  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will these coins achieve goals I set? on: May 20, 2022, 07:22:06 PM
I think it's much better if you set a date for those price targets because if not, I believe it will take some time for those altcoins to reach or worst, they will not even come close there because they will become scams or fraud, like becoming ghost altcoin.

But my choice is the longest altcoin so far, Ethereum. Because it is already proven by the time, and look how it is strong, it's still here.
Usually predictors always set a desired date if which year they would like to see the coins achieve that price but it's refreshing to see one here that predicts without setting a date. I think the op mean it because if he sets a date and that didn't occur he will be disappointed so it's better if he put it like that.

To occur or not, no hard feelings that is going to be built up. You are right, it can take time because most of those altcoins are not a shitcoins that can easily pumped high and then declines too in an instant. It can take time because the price that the op set are a bit high. For the most coins on his list, they are old and I don't think they can end up being a scam.
1355  Economy / Economics / Re: USDC and Banking on: May 20, 2022, 04:28:26 PM
it is a good question, how can they sustain the APY offered to their customers?
If they continue to make profits, they will not have a problem because more hot money will flow in and those will remain for a long time, but when problems occur then we will see how strong their financial position is and how well their cash management is.
Therefore, even 8% is not considered high if you compare it to rates, for example, 10% in Binance and others, but the main difference is the degree of solidity of those who print these coins.
I do not think that this is going to be like that. I believe that they are going to end up with something like offering this type of situation for a while and then they are going to drop it and make it more sustainable when they have enough. This is the same with banks, and same with all the other places that offered a high amount return APY for the stablecoins.

Let's assume that you offer 50% for people who put in USDC or USDT and then there are 10 billion dollars invested, and then you drop it to 10% which is sustainable and then there will be some people who leave but you will still have a few billion dollars left and people will not leave. That's what they are trusting it.

That's true at the moment, although that's why I said that in the future we might actually benefit from this sort of technology. Electricity can be generated via green energy, mining resources can't. Obviously, to be able to do it we'll need to use our existing resources. However, utilizing things like solar, and hydro plants could potentially increase the amount of green energy being used. The way the world is going, there's enough funding for this to become a reality.
I agree on what you say but I was just focusing on this exact case, in which we have no clue of the source and even if it were green and all the energy would be green, the way he does it by driving and then using batteries simply wasteful, probably close to 20% waste of electricity compared to a traditional home-based setup.
It has been something that people talked for many years right now. There could be a more efficient way, but there is currently no cleaner way of doing it. For example, if you do solar and wind, that could be causing a bit of a drop in efficiency, and it could cost more than oil or gas for example right now, but it is unlimited. Sun is not something we are going to run out of, and if we ever do then energy is the least of our worries.

Instead, we still use oil because it's cheaper and more efficient, which we will run out of eventually anyway. Hence, even if it's inefficient, renewable energy is the way to go for every single thing.
1357  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Polygon (MATIC) to $20? on: May 19, 2022, 01:00:03 PM
Market condition is very hard now to predict any coin.Bitcoin and Altcoin have between well connection each others. But now bitcoin price already many dropped and continue dropping. Bitcoin price now staying $29k-30k+. If bitcoin price will recover again like this 2021 Then i think it will be happened to Matic $20 in future. MATIC is very promising coin in altcoin After ETH and BNB.Matic have huge volume and i love this new promising blockchain. I hope bitcoin price wil be more grow in very next year and Altcoin also.
The difference is, even if bitcoin goes back to 68k, that would be a little over x2, even if we say bitcoin goes x3, that would be 90k price. So, when we consider the same for Matic, like let’s say it reached x3, or even x5, that would be 3-4 dollars at the very best case.

So, how could we say that it could reach 20 dollars? Of course, it won't reach that level. We have a about x28 difference between matic's current price and the 20 dollar price point. So, it is clear to me that we won't reach that level, even if bitcoin becomes 200k one day, that would be about x7 difference, in order for bitcoin to reach 28x that would be near 850k level. Sure matic could go up faster, but not that much higher.

This kind of came time to time and its not funny to think for yourself a fantasy land you own for yourself without interference of any kind of entity and and you can be king f that land. But As we all know in real world there is n land like this exist here on earth. To many entities are going to interfere either you do something or not as this is what the dark side of humans is. They can't sit and watch someone to fulfill his/her desire without worrying of any interference.
What do you mean by came? You mean this thoughts came to you from time to time? If it's only a fantasy then it wasn't serious at all so it can be funny too. You can make your own fantasy came true if only you are willing to work hard for it. You can build a land of your own if that is what your fantasy and earnings from signature campaigns can help you make it happen.

When you earn you can save, invest/stake, or any other things that you can do to make more out of it. Why will someone interfere you? As long as you are doing things in a legal and fair way, you are going to be fine. Just don't mind the haters. There's always a people like that because they can't achieve their own fantasies/dreams.

Frankfurt @2.45 and Rangers @2.90. I think these are evenly matched odds and neither one is too much of a favourite, so both really have a chance to win. I personally can't underestimate either of them because both of them came into this final in an unpredictable way too, so with them playing in this final they have basically been the best this season. But even so, I was expecting the surprise that Rangers might make, but I can't forget Frankfurt's performance. Regardless of the available odds, I personally still admit that Frankfurt has a better chance of winning.
I do agree that odds are getting a bit situations, it's not going to be easy to decide who will win. This is going to be an entertaining game and we will end up with some good game to watch. We should be focusing on something much closer but at the same time we have no idea what's going to happen maybe we are going to end up with a game that is 5-0 who knows? This is why we shouldn't really expect anything at all.

This should be something we should be just enjoying watching it without caring about the result itself, just the game itself. It's not the destination that is beautiful, it is the road that should be good and this is that type of game.

If any new team wants to play cricket at the top level it's better if they start giving importance to the t20 format because the test format is obviously a lot more skill dependent meanwhile t20 is the least skill dependent cricket format.

So it will be easier to get used to the t20 format for the newer players.

You know, ICC is obviously not going to do too much for the newer teams. so, they have to figure it out themselves because the bigger teams who have good power in ICC are also not going to help themselves.
I agree with your all statement if any new team want to do something then surely they need to work on T20 format as it's suitable for all newcomers and youths are also had some good future in this format with now many franchise leagues are coming in different countries which are giving some good financial benefits.

Even nothing is easy and short way if you want to establish a good T20 with mostly native countries surely it's need 15 to 20 years because you have to start from grassroots gathering players from different areas or cities and giving them some good knowledge about this all is never been easy but still it's possible and good with just for own sack never try to depend on ICC or any other relative board because here no one going to help if they have no some good marketing benefit.
