So true. No country has fallen economically after adopting bitcoin either as a commodity asset or as a security asset. And in fact El Salvador seems to be enjoying some advantages in the tourism sector after they adopted bitcoin as legal tender in their country. So actually every country that is open with bitcoin and allows its citizens to invest in bitcoin will make the country have more income from the taxes that are collected by the country from the transactions of its citizens on the exchange. Well in my country in Indonesia have done it. And all went well. The government gets additional revenue from crypto taxes and citizens also feel happy because they are free to invest in crypto as a commodity asset.

There are many different experiences when someone enters into gambling in the end, one of them is like what you said, at first they just try, are introduced by friends and many more. from that experience there will be different impacts too, some of them stop immediately at that time, some become addicted and others. The danger is those who become addicted, it will make them go too deep and they don't even know how to get out.
However, this often happens in the scope of gambling and when it all happens then it will come back to themselves.

Even is the Men's football it is not easy to decide on whom to bet. I think the upsets happen more regularly in the Men football as compared to women's football. So whether you are betting on Men's football or Women's football, the risk of losing money always exists.

Also, those who were betting on Australia, forget that it was the first time Australia played in the semi-finals, and Sweden was more favorite team but we thought that at home ground Australia might have an advantage but not to be. Placing a bet on Australia was more like placing a bet on an underdog team.

Even if it's a win from someone else, it can make a gambler return to playing, even after losing, because he also wants to win like those other people. The voices and lights he heard made him forget to stop and recalculate his money because he should have experienced a decrease in his balance with the losses he had obtained. And he will still gamble, especially if he is drinking alcohol, because that can also make him forget to control himself and stop on time. And maybe that was the initial experience of someone playing gambling at an offline casino and clearly different from the experience of people playing gambling at an online casino.

Getting your point, anything is possible when we are dealing with money, like what you mentioned people change when there's huge money involved, in terms of teams who will develop and AI that may beat the casino, internal exploit is possible as they know what they are trying to break, though they will not expose themselves and let someone to use it, but again, it's money and people can be greed to exploit themselves and being caught then things will be burn everything and those people behind will be punished.

99% of all hacks are not really crypto but Exchanges, Wallets.
One coin sticks out though and that is ETH. Not positive though. In 2016 it led to a split.

I didn't know of the football situation in Germany, I imagined that they had some young promises to compete in the next world cups, but I believe it will be difficult for us to see a Germany like 2014 world cup.

Regarding Brazil, unfortunately they don't have a new star to replace Neymar, they have good players and that's true (Raphinha, Vini Jr, Casemiro, Richarlison and others).
The Brazilian national league (Brasileirão/Copa do Brasil), it is weak compared to European teams, but there are good teams that always stand out in Libertadores and Sul Americana, Sao Paulo, Palmeiras, Flamengo, Corinthians, which are some examples.

There's something I've observed about the Swedish women. They excel well at spot kicks and corners because of their heights and are also quite skillful in counter attacks. Another thing about them is if they score first, and can't produce another goal, they'd then tighten their defenses.
At present, they are pressing the Mathildas of Australia and have more of the ball possession; 58% and have 10 total goal attempts as of now. I expect more goals from them and as it is, they are winning the game and I doubt Australia can be able to equalize in this game.

While I don’t think that Trump will go to jail, I’ll admit I am fascinated by the possibility that a candidate for President could run and possibly be elected while serving time in jail. That would be a historic event and a sign of the times I guess. I think more then ever people want to see a President clean house and attempt to fight against the corrupt alphabet boys.

From the moment children are born in Brazil, soccer becomes an important part of their lives. All the footballers in Brazil so far have come from very poor families. A child born into a poor family in Brazil has the goal of becoming a footballer and ending his poverty. I saw a video of children in Brazil playing soccer with bare feet, and they used a bunch of paper to tie it into a ball with a string and use it as a soccer ball. I would not have realized how much interest in football children can play football like this if I had not seen videos of children playing football in Brazil. They love football and they consider football a part of their lives, that's why every year so many talented footballers from their country perform brilliantly for various clubs in Europe.

Sound and light do play an important part in a casino. The more bright light and the winning sound gives a confidence jolt to the gambler and it encourages to place more bets. These are tricks that have been used for sometimes now. When you lose it is very different it as they keep the sound and graphics bear minimum. That basically means it's okay continue with your next bet. Have you noticed almost all online casinos have dark back and bright color graphics with an easy to understand layout. All are part of enhancing user experience and encouraging longer stay.

If ever that there's someone who can save some money out from gambling, we can call them experienced gambler who realizes
the risk from this business.

Just the same with your statement, if you are the owner or bookie, that's gives you
huge edge to earn a lot from the business. Flowing money from the gambler is possible
and if you are wise, you will really make more money from your business.

Sweden and Australia are already playing against each other for third place, so far 10 minutes have passed but neither team has been able to score. Australia placed more emphasis on defending itself against attack. In today's match, Australia has arranged the players in 4-4-2 format, on the contrary, Sweden has played defensively and has done some offensive field setup because Sweden's field setup against Australia is 4-2-3-1. So far Sweden is ahead of Australia in terms of attacking accurate ball pass, pass accuracy and Sweden has already managed to score against a short Australia.
A single early goal can turn any team's momentum around. Whichever team scores first, after scoring a goal they must try to defend their own goal post.

With the new Georgia indictment, it's looking like it will be an electoral disaster for Trump. Brian Kemp, Georgia Governor, is at a odds with Trump and Kemp won his reelection in 2022 by solid margins, and he beat a Trump backed Republican who tried to primary Kemp.

Having read the indictment, I'm doubtful there exist evidence that would convict Trump of the charges beyond any reasonable doubt (the standard for American criminal trials). Of course that doesn't matter. It's meant to interfere with the election, the radical Fulton county DA has made sure of this. The charges would be more appropriate on the federal level anyways.

Say Trump gets convicted in Georgia state court, he wouldn't even be able to pardon himself on the federal level for state charges if he were to win. The Georgia governor wouldn't be able to pardon him either. A panel in Georgia would have to decide that.

in the case of sports betting, that person who works at the casino and even if he were the employee responsible for coding would not be able to predict correctly the result of the games of some sport, even if someone created the most incredible AI in the world, even so this AI would be committing errors in game predictions, that's because in sport there are many factors that even being very well analyzed they defy all that analysis. for example, a few days ago there was a game in the Portuguese league, who was playing was benfica against boavista. the odd for Benfica to win the game was 1.22 and when looking at the squads of both teams it was clear the difference

Benfica has a much better squad than Boavista's squad, Benfica didn't have injured players and Boavista too, looking at the value of the odds, looking at the squads of the two teams, looking at the performance of the last games of the two teams, people could say: benfica will win this game without many problems, and these people could even bet a lot of money on benfica to win the game, because they are seeing a big advantage for benfica. but it turns out that in this game benfica lost the game. they conceded 3 goals and didn't lose due to bad luck, they lost because they were weaker than the opponent

and see that the funniest thing about this game is that benfica is winning by 2 - 0, anyone would say that benfica already won, but boavista drew and then scored the winning goal. this shows that even AI will not be able to predict the results of the games when it comes to sports betting

Winning for the first time is just a trigger that causes someone to increase the bet amount even bigger. But not a few people who are addicted to gambling are caused by continuing to chase victory like they got for the first time.

it is absolutely true that environment is the main factor a person is still involved in gambling. The scope can make someone who has never gambled even though they can be influenced to become an acute gambler due to environmental factors.
So this is where we need to sort out and choose an environment that is good for us, if indeed we do not have a strong determination that causes us to be easily influenced by the outside environment.

Got money on Australia, no way can you bet against the home team here.  Hoping it's a low scoring game which it should be based on earlier games from both of them.  Would like to see Australia ride out on a high note.  They were actually one of my favorite teams to watch this entire tourny

I saw some people say Football is the sport for poor people and poor nations because this sport needs just one ball, but in this new generation, the rich countries with better situations will invest money there and this investment is the reason for other countries Venezuela to have bad performance and usually fail in the race with other teams.

It does not matter how someone may try to twist the math to try to make this possible, it is not going to work.

The OP will need to win every single bet they make and even just to breakeven they will need to win 20 times in a row, so when you think about this it does not make any sense to even try as there is no way anyone can achieve those results with such a limited amount of capital, however despite our warnings I am sure there are many people that will try to do this and lose everything as a result of their greed.
