Even with the reserve day the match doesn't gonna get result. The scheduled time had passed and the ground inspection continues. According to the latest update from the ground inspection team. The skies aren't very clear at the moment, however everyone are hoping for the start of the match at the earliest. As the precautionary measures the ground have been covered earlier. This had kept the ground in a better situation and everyone waiting for the update from the big match.

The match was supposed to start one hour back and now I feel they would reduce the number of overs. It is really a bad decision by the ACC to host the Asia Cup 2023 in Srilanka. They should have thought about the weather in this time of the year in Srilanka first. A few matches in the UAE would have been a brilliant idea. I have a feeling that the rain only interrupts whenever Pakistan and India are playing. All other matches where the rain interrupted did end on the same day.

Thanks for the recommendation Bureau, I just take a look to the WP Rocket Plugin, and it doesn't look good. it says:

Deprecated

This plugin is deprecated and will be removed in the future.
It was coded back in 2019 when WpRocket did not have asynchronous support for CSS.
Although this plugin operates at a lower level (main php buffer), which helps apply loadsCSS to ALL styles regardless of whether they conform to wp_enqueue or not, we recommend instead using WpRocket’s

And about your question, this kind of website that works automatically is a nice option if the project is useful for you. In my case, I did it to have the news from different sources in one place and it works great. If more people like it too maybe it could leave some income. By the way, I use WpeMatico for the RSS feed, you should take a look at that plugin.


I apologise that I recommended you a plugin without checking the Wordpress plugin repository. This plugin was one of the most recommended cache plugin. The second one is LiteSpeed Cache, the plugin is still active as I checked their plugin page. I have used it in one of my website a few years back, you can check it for your website.

I was forgetting the word yesterday, now I remember that it is known as autoblogging. I have been planning to do it for quite sometime now. I did some more check and found out that depending your niche it can generate good traffic. Visitors are more interested in reading short news than reading a full articles in today's time. If any news interest them then they generally click on the link and read the full article. Thanks for you plugin suggestion I would check it.

Reserved day match starts in just few hours. Both Virat & Rahul will need to firm a partnership if India want to set a target of 280+. Yesterday at one point they were looking for a target of 300+ run. Virat takes time to settle but once he get settled then it is not easy for the bowlers to get him out. Rahul was playing better than what he has doing before his injury.

Pakistan bowlers would be looking for early wickets. Shadab was bowling good after he got Rohit out. I guess that wicket gave him a morale booster. The weather is looking bad again in Colombo, it is a big concern. I hope it doesn't rain like it rained yesterday.

snip~~

I too have serious doubts whether this match will end properly. The covers are still on the field and the game has not started yet. Half of India's innings has to be played first and looking at the present situation we might see the match getting abandoned. The second possibility would be that we DLS might happen when Pakistan comes to bat.
1464  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket Asia Cup 2023! Which team will WIN? on: September 10, 2023, 11:26:01 AM
The waiting is over and the match has started.
Pakistan win the toss and decided bowling.This time Pakistan has made a big mistake by choosing to bowl.
Because It is said that in the game of cricket, the team that bats frist  in Colombo pitch has  a better chance of winning.Most captain  perfer to bat  at Columbo pitch by wining th toss .60 match has been  palyed on this pitch in Colombo, of which  33 match have been won by the team that batted first.And this time I see more chance for India to win .And it is also being said that there is an  80% chance of rain .

You are right the match has started and at the moment it is well balanced. Earlier Pakistani bowlers were getting hammered due to the Indian opening pair. While I watch the match and write here, Pakistan is back into the game. Both Shadab and Haris are able to stop Rahul and Kohli from opening their hands. Rahul is looking good as whenever he gets a loose ball he hits it for a 4, while Kohli looks to be struggling at the moment. Luck has been favouring the Indian batters a lot today and at the same time the rain gods too. The match is evenly positioned for now, unless the present batters go after the existing bowlers. The current run rate is still above 6 percent. There was a time when the Indian team run rate was 7.5.

Edit: I jinxed it! We now have rain interruption.  Grin

India had a terrific start, both opening batters were hammering the ball everywhere on the ground. Rohit Sharma started very shaky, at one point he had only 10 runs after facing 24 balls. Gill on the other end was too agressive in the meantime and was taking care of the scoreboard. Then Rohit too become agressive but got out because of beautiful catch taken by faheem. Gill followed him with a lose shot.

Pakistan is back in the position to take control of the match. The wicket is not helping the bowlers at the moment. Virat is out batting and if he continues then it won't be easy for Pakistan. They would be focusing in getting his wicket from now on.

Congratulations on your new website! I did some checks on your website and I understand that you are using WP Super cache, for improving the server response  time. I used GTmetrix to find out the reason why your website response
time is bad and it suggests using WP Rocket to reduce server response  time.

BTW, I do have a question for you? Is running a news aggregator website a good idea for now. I am new to this field and I have read that with new Google updates it is now not that easy to generate revenue from such website. I had a plan  similar like yours to start a website in different niche that would publish news through RSS feed, after doing some research, I shelved it.
1467  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket Asia Cup 2023! Which team will WIN? on: September 10, 2023, 09:07:54 AM
Just checked the betting odds, Pakistan are the favourite for theis match. As far as I have seen the match between these two teams are always unpredictable. It is always a pressure match and the team that is able to cope it wins the match. Current performance of the Indian team is not at it's best. They are seen struggling with bowling and batting. The opening batting pair looked clueless in the first match with Pakistan.

While Pakistan bowling attack has been all around. Every bowler in this team has taken wickets and have been precise with the line and length. Their batting looks a little bit shaky but the lower middle order has always come to the rescue. It won't be easy for the Indian team to defeat them. Above all I hope that the rain should not interrupt this match.

Bangladesh started the Super Four with a loss against Pakistan. Shakib's team has no choice but to win the last two matches to maintain their existence in the final. And in that mission, Team Tigers will fight against Sri Lanka and India. Both matches will be played in Sri Lanka. Hathuru disciples' mission to survive in the final race will begin today at 3:30 pm. Today's match is very important for Bangladesh. If they win this match, the possibility of playing in the final of the Asia Cup will remain for Bangladesh. And if they lose, the dream of playing in the final will end for the Tigers. Ahead of the do-or-die match, Bangladesh are haunted by the memory of the ill-fated loss against the Lankans in the group stage. Team Tigers are determined to start afresh at a new venue to avenge that loss and return to winning ways.

Yeah! Today's match is important for Bangladesh. I did check the odds of this match and found that Srilanka is favourite to win. Bangladesh has not been performing consistently both in bowling and batting. Except Taskin Ahmed and Liton Das all other players are their to visit Srilanka. Even the captain has not been able to make a mark in any of the matches played in the tournament.

Srilankan team is looking good. The last match that they played against Afghanistan was a thrilling one. I never expected them to snatch the match out from Afghanistan. They have been bowling very good, both seamers and spinners are effective. They have some issues with the bat, that is still manageable when bowlers are backing up. My favourite would be Srilankans team for today.
1469  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why gambling beginners must not joke with casino announcement on: September 09, 2023, 08:29:34 AM
In general a new casino will always come up with an announcement page first. They do buy Copper membership and then design their ANN. If a casino is interested in getting active user from the forum, they would come up with exclusive offers. I don't see anything wrong here. Those offers does encourage members to check their casinos and engage with them for sometime.

Being a new casino they would have some glitches and would have fewer games than established ones. I don't think it should be considered wrong. It helps the casino aswell as it helps them to work on their infrastructure when the traffic is high.

Following your suggestion means not encouraging a new casino to expand their business. I don't agree with your points.
1470  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Faruk Ozer, turkey crypto whizz sentenced to 11,196 years in jail? Wow! on: September 09, 2023, 07:49:01 AM
This, I feel, is tarnishing the image of the cryptocurrencies to have defrauded businesses and move it through his company, Thodex. Thodex was founded in 2017 and became on of Turkey's largest exchange for digital currencies.

There are more fugitive in fiat word than crypto. Such harsh sentence was not expected but this guy going to jail will bring peace of mind to those who suffered because of his action. Meanwhile those investors of FTX are still suffering. I think such judgement won't tarnish the image of cryptocurrency but improve its reputation as people will now know that scammers cannot escape the law. There is cross border crypto regulation policy that will be up for discussion in the ongoing G20 summit in India. If the synthesis paper is approved then it won't be easy for such scammers in the future.
1471  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Average Electrum Wallet Transfer Time on: September 09, 2023, 07:26:15 AM
Please share your average BTC transfer time with Electrum wallet ( all confirmed transactions ).
Whenever I use my Electrum wallet to send Bitcoin, the transfer takes place instantly. The confirmation depends on the fee that you choose. I always follow memepool.space and depending on the priority I choose the fee. There is a network congestion at the moment and there are more than 500k transaction that are pending. I generally use the max amount the meme pool predicts insuring that my transaction gets conformed soon.


I have a pending transaction now for almost 3 days due to the shit mempool clogged due to the BRC20 sewer boys but my usual transaction transfer time is jut below 5 minutes since I use 2sat/vB higher to the high priority fee recommended on the mempool.

I'm using segwit wallet address and I have a consistent transfer speed except this current event which caught me off-guard because my wallet doesn't support RBF.  Angry

I had been in the same situation earlier. My transaction did got stuck and it did not confirm for three days. I saw the option to cancel my transaction which I did and my satoshi got credited back instantly. You can either do that or increase the fee for your transaction to get a confirmation.
1472  Local / India / Re: India Pushes for Global Crypto Regulation Under Its G20 Presidency on: September 08, 2023, 10:38:33 AM
So by tomorrow end of the day or day after tomorrow we would have an idea about crypto regulation. I think our country would create a regulation on the that framework keeping in mind of the Indian crypto ecosystem. I do not think they will go ahead and copy paste the same thing as presented by the IMF and FSB. The government should discuss about it with leaders of crypto industry before making it a law. I had that inclination when our PM publicly talked about cryptocurrency regulation that it was coming. I do feel that the government will wait till next year and would pass it as a law after the general election. What do you guys think?
1473  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket Asia Cup 2023! Which team will WIN? on: September 08, 2023, 10:27:19 AM

Nothing can be done now as the matches would be played in Srilanka. I agree on the point that rain interruption are frustrating and you tend to lose interest when it happens multiple times. I am hoping that match between India & Pakistan goes smoothly on September 10th. Rain should not play a spoil sport this time. The last match between these two got a abandoned due to rain.

Breaking!


It seems that the ACC has sensed the frustration of cricket fans and took the right decision. If the match between India and Pakistan is not played due to the rain on September 10th then the match will resume on September 11th. Such decision could have been avoided if the tournament could have been organised in Dubai. I think they should reserve an extra day for all the Super 4 matches in this tournament. This decision might have come due to the pressure of the broadcaster. Otherwise ACC was looking least bothered if any match got abandoned or interrupted due to rain.

You have taken the right decision as the price of Bitcoin from its last ATH is down by more than 60% as of today. The next halving would happen next year and the price will surge up and might go beyond the 69K mark. You would get good return if you are able to hold it for that long. If you continue to hold for long term then there is no limit. Another good thing that you are doing is that you are selling an old phone which you do not use. That means you are investing with the money that you can forget for a long time. It is a great investment policy and I would say you did a proper research with the help of forum members. Best of Luck.
1475  Local / India / Re: Indian Stock Markets VS Bitcoin on: September 08, 2023, 08:01:59 AM
Recently I came across an article that celebrated the Indian stock market's performance. It seems the Indian stock market has delivered a 10.9% return, which is higher than the US & China.

It is great news that the Indian economy is shining and growth has been straight upward in the last decade. As an Indian, it makes me proud when I recall where we were in 2013 to where we are now in 2023. Within that emotional outburst of pride in my mind, a strange question popped up, which was to compare the ROI both from Bitcoin and the Stock Market.

Let's do the math for the Indian Stock Market. If you had invested $100 ten years back with an ROI of 10.9%, your money would have become $235 approximately by now. Not bad considering not many bank FDs or mutual funds are able to generate such an ROI.

Now, let's do the math for Bitcoin. Again, the investment amount in this case would be $100. In August of 2013, the average price of Bitcoin was $135. Considering the price, you would have bought 0.74 Bitcoin. In August of 2023, the average price of Bitcoin was $27,297, which would result in your $100 investment growing to $20,200 ten years later. That is a 201 times return on your initial investment of $100 or, in simple words, a 20100% return.

Think again - which is better, Bitcoin or the Stock Market? If you are someone with diamond hands, then Bitcoin is the right investment. The potential for enormous growth and returns far exceeds traditional investments.
No doubt I support crypto market a lot, but the truth is it's not fair to compare it with stock market and claim it's better than stock market. We all very well know that stock markets pricing atleast in a longer term has been based on prices derived directly through performance and earnings of companies which too have grown at a very similar scale, while Crypto markets run has been more on hype so far, the projects even though have been launched but nowhere can we see the real word value addition that they have delivered of such amounts. Also it's like comparing a highly risky investment with a relatively very low risky investment. Obviously with change of risk the returns changes by too much.

Lastly a very big point is, you are comparing the market indicies returns with bitcoin return, compare it with an individual share like Bajaj finance, which too has been insane.

I remember a video that circulated on the internet about a person calling ZEE business channel. The caller had found that his grand dad had purchased 20k shares of MRF in 1990. He wanted to know the current valuation of those share. It was revealed to him that those shares are valued at 130cr. I agree diamond hands always win but I don't agree that Bitcoin is the only asset that can give you good ROI. There are others that are giving or have given good ROI both in crypto & stock market.

1480  Local / India / UPI ATM! Another achivement in Fintech by India on: September 06, 2023, 10:13:12 AM
You all will agree that the quantum of new tech emerging in our country (especially in Fintech) in the last decade has been unimaginable. Recently a new fintech UPI ATM has been launched. You can use any UPI payment processor like Paytm, phonepe or gpay to withdraw cash from a UPI ATM by only scanning the bar code dispayed on the ATM machine.

Banks were already providing similar service known as cardless cash withdrawal. The problem was that it can only done on that particular bank's ATM using the banking app. With UPI ATM you are able to withdraw cash from any banks saving account and you don't  need to use that particular bank's ATM.
