FIFA won't ever find anything because they are getting the biggest piece from the bribe pie.

Qatar spent ~$220 billion for this world cup.

Have you ever thought, how a country like Qatar, which is against every western value, has no football stadium, has a complete shit football team, hosting a world cup?

Did you think FIFA let them be the host for free?

How many billions did the FIFA got from Qatar as a bribe?

Your mistake was betting on the Qatar World Cup. Haven't you seen the news Qatar bribing Ecuador?

Reports: Qatar Bribed Eight Ecuadorian Players $7.4 Million to Lose World Cup Opener

What makes you think that Argentina haven't sold the game to the rich Saudis? That's a very good possibility.

Saudis have lots of money and Argentina is dirt poor. Since the tournament is already a very dirty and corrupted one to begin with, we might see more surprises like this.

You know what is going to be more surprising? Saudis or Qataris winning the world cup.

Total shit show.

Yes that’s how my logic works.

This exact thing happened when the US invaded Iraq and Syria.

This is how this game works. Big fish eats little fish. Wake up snowflake.

Hopefully Finland and Sweden ain’t dumb enough to join Nato.

Wow this is a very tough call. Ideally you should get laid off and look for another job but since everybody is losing their jobs in a such environment, a 50% pay cut don't look really bad. This is how the beginning of a recession looks like. Either with no job or a 50% paying job, people will have to spend less and less. That's what the high interest rates do to the economy and you know what? It should have happened long time ago. The FED was too late to act and even believed their own "inflation is transitory" bullshit.

You are right. We still live in a FIAT world and bitcoin won't replace it any time soon. Heck I believe FIAT can't be replaced by anything... Not by bitcoin, not by gold, not by any other asset. The greatest weakness of FIAT is also its greatest strength which is getting printed at will. Believe it or not, somehow we need an asset that loses its value over time. That's because the humanity is expanding, multiplying, making more babies. In the end they need to get paid but get paid less and less, not nominally but in terms of real wealth.

Youtube and legacy media (TV, newspaper, magazines) are all about getting clicks/interaction. They don't care if the news is accurate or not, if their predictions make sense... No. They only want you to read their crap and get the ad providers' money. Basically they are feeding you with bullshit to get the ad givers money. The more ridiculous bullshit they spew out, the more shit flies they attract. That's why we have seen crazy price estimates like $1.000.000. Some dude which is dead by now even said he is going to eat his dick if bitcoin hits $1.000.000.

I don't hate Ukrainians. I don't particularly love Russians neither. They are pretty much the same people for me. The difference is one of them sockpuppeting NATO even thought they are not a member and the other one has a legit claim which is not wanting any NATO members on their borders.

Russia said to Ukraine: "Don't join NATO or get ready for the consequences."

Ukraine said to Russia: "We are an independent country we do whatever we want."

Well, Russia is an independent country too and now they are doing "whatever" they want. They don't want any NATO presence in Ukraine just like how the US don't want any Russian missiles in Cuba.

All Ukraine had to do was getting along well with Putin but he had that crazy idea of winning a war against Russia. Zelensky the NATO plant is delusional and ruined Ukraine completely.

It is not just that, they even funded an article that is against the use of ivermectin.

You know who is pro-vaccination certificates, pro-lockdowns, anti-ivermectin etc. ? The democrats.

FTX/Sam is basically a democrat muppet. It is not a surprise that he donated the democrats huge amounts. I mean, he is the biggest democrat donator right after George Soros. What the fuck?

Didn't surprise me one bit. The other day I saw the news that Qatar is hiring people from Pakistan to create a fake fan audience.

Look at this shit:

And then they banned beer sales...

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/sportsnews/article-11442203/Qatar-want-alcohol-sales-World-Cup-stadiums-BANNED.html

Hopefully no sane person will watch these games or bet on them.

A corrupted country like Qatar didn't deserve to be the WC host in the first place. They banned beer, nobody likes them and they are trying to hire people to give an image that they are a lively country which everybody loves and want to visit.

No, Qatar is a shithole which nobody wants to visit or care about.

Bitcoin is the only true decentralized crypto currency without an owner or a CEO. Every other crypto is either premined, got a CEO or both. Eth is premined and has Vitalik, LTC has Charlee etc..: Bitcoin is premined too but those coins never moved and satoshi is missing for years. That makes btc the safest option out there. Every other crypto is only trying to be fake bitcoins.

Have your heard about Murphy's law?

It is basically:  "Anything that can go wrong will go wrong."

In your case, If your victory depends on the last game, you are going to lose that game.

Always assume the worst in every situation because 9 times out of 10, the worst will happen.

I've been getting free WoF spins from freebitco.in and a few times I got 5000 rw/tickets and btc till now. I'd say freespins on freebitco.in works. It may not work on the other casinos but freebitco.in is legit. I am actually making money from those spins and taking money from the casino. I have no idea how they are sustaining this because this must be one of the most generous casino ever existed and still in business after like 6 or 7+ years.

 I never thought about it tbh. I always thought it as my own luck. Mathematically though, you have more chance to win on the casinos that have a lower house edge. Does that lucky casino of yours have a lower house edge than the other casinos you played on? Maybe that's the explanation of what's happening. Other than the house edge, every casino is more or less the same assuming that they are all honest.

NATO won't go to war for Ukraine and Ukraine can't win shit unless somebody else win their war for them. No matter how many weapons Ukraine gets from NATO, it won't make a difference because Russia is just too strong for them to handle. In the end Russia will get whatever they want, NATO won't lift a finger (it is because Ukraine isn't a NATO country) and life will go on as usual. Hell I am not even sure if NATO would help Poland or Turkey if Russia was invading these countries. NATO should just disband imo.

It is because we are still in a huge bear market. The interest rates are still rising, the inflation is still high, a major crypto exchange went bankrupt… The environment is no good for crypto at the moment and it will stay like that for a while. Don’t expect a recovery before these major issues get resolved. Bitcoin may not go lower than this (it is still a possibility though) but it is not going to get a new ATH neither. In the long run it will be fine. (2-5 years)

Good news for crypto but C. Ronaldo isn’t having his brightest days lately. I heard his team mates don’t want him in the team anymore. That’s a very sad ending for a great player like C.R. On the other hand that’s an incredible thing for Binance/CZ. He shows the world he has the funds to hire anybody he wants. Messi, Ronaldo, Pele it don’t matter. If CZ wants it, it is just a matter of setting the price.

This headline reeks of communism.

You can't get mad at the oil companies just because they are making profits. For years they worked for a loss. Has this shithead wanted to help them when they were making no profits? No, he didn't care.

These are very dangerous talks threatening the existence of capitalism.

Why would CZ care for the other exchanges? Why would he want to bail them out? Is he doing this because he is a nice guy? Is binance trying to become the central bank of crypto? Bailing out the exchanges they like and bankrupt the ones they don’t?

This is a bad, very bad move. It just makes the current situation even worse imo.

Gambling is harmless as long as it don't become an addiction. Getting addicted to gambling what makes it dangerous imo. People get addicted to various things every day. Smoking, drinking, gambling, chocolates, coffee, drugs... Gambling is just one of those bad habits. Like you said in the OP, there are various underlying reasons that make a person a gambling addict. They are mostly psychological.

A healthy family environment and a good education are usually enough to overcome being an addict.

If I learned one thing about crypto, it is that anything is possible. Can binance go bankrupt? Why not... Soon? Why not... FTX went bankrupt out of the blue. Why wouldn't binance do the same thing? How can one be sure that CZ isn't a lying sob?

Nobody will ever be safe unless everybody keep their coins in cold/offline wallets. No matter how big or trusted a crypto exchange is, it may always fail or get hacked. FTX wasn't the first one to get hacked and it won't be the last.
