If the political situation is stable then Afghanistan will produce great talents if not these players will move to other countries to earn their living, i have played with and against many players from Afghanistan in the UAE playing for clubs and some of the players i came across have the potential to play for the national side.

The pitch is really slow for batting and the bowlers will determine the champions or a special batsman who could tackle the pitch.

The fastest supercomputer is Fugaku which has a speed of 442 PFLOPS and it cost around a billion US dollar to put together this supercomputer and if you think it can break AES-128 encryption it will take forever to break the encryption, basically it is impossible to break the encryption even if you spent a billion dollars and who will be spending that much money to break the encryption of BTCitcoin (SHA-256) or other cryptocurrencies  .

The sole reason Jon Jones is not fighting for a long time is because he demanded more money to move to Heavyweight division and Dana White was not budging and he was not willing to give anything further than what is contracted. Even Francis Ngannou in a recent interview with Ariel Helwani said his problem is not with the money the UFC is offering but the freedom he gets with the contract. Francis Ngannou gets a fixed amount of 600k win or loose and he will be getting PPV revenue as well which will be much higher than the fixed pay he gets considering he is a main event fighter.

For example for UFC 229 Khabib Nurmagomedov got a fixed payment of $2 million and Conor McGregor got a fixed pay of $3 million but the total amount Khabib Nurmagomedov got for UFC 229 including PPV in revenue is around $40 million and Conor McGregor made around $50 million.

This is called flowing with the trend, there is no way he will be an international news worthy candidate if not for the adoption of BTCitcoin and he made international news with his action and a good PR work  . I am in the BTCitcoin space for a very long time but there is no way i am going to accept my salary in BTCitcoin. The freedom of when to invest should be on me and for publicity it is a good stunt .

If you are expecting Xbox quality games from blockchain based games then you need to wait for the next 5 to 10 years to see any solid games that would spark an interest who are not into gaming. So do not expect high level games in the blockchain during the initial phases.

I remember the growth of the gaming industry and it took decades to reach where it is now and i am not expecting the same delays but it will take some time to reach the level of Xbox games .

So he took money from bookies and then busted himself and then only got three and half years of suspension. Usually it will be a life time ban if there is evidence of taking money as far as i understand. What is common here is that with every match fixing scandal there will be an Indian connection  . All the way from Hansie Cronje, Herschelle Gibbs, Nicky Boje to Brendan Taylor.

The pay scale of Zimbabwe players are really low and hence it would be easier for the bookies to approach them and they fall for those traps which will ultimately end up exposing themselves in the global scale.

Even i am not expecting anything magical from Dillian Whyte against Tyson Fury but he was supposed to fight Anthony Joshua for a long time and he is waiting in the sideline for a long time to fight for the title and with Anthony Joshua and Oleksandr Usyk are engaged to fight, it is a good match up as they were not having any opponents and they cannot wait on the sideline for a longtime waiting for the other fight to get over.

To be frank i do not want to see Francis Ngannou and Tyson Fury in the boxing ring as there is nothing Tyson Fury has not seen inside boxing but if he is smart they should promote a fight between Deontay Wilder and Francis Ngannou to find out the heaviest puncher of all time and even in that fight i am expecting Francis Ngannou to gas out completely and Deontay Wilder tagging him in the later rounds .

Washington Sundar was included in the team as a spinner and not as a replacement for Hardik Pandya and he delivered with his batting as well which was a bonus. KL Rahul is a good batsman and i still think that he is yet to show his potential as a batsman with consistent performance in the International stages but i am not impressed with his captaincy .

The CIA have their own analytic team and products which are not available elsewhere and they always hire the best in countering all the activities and there is no doubt they are well equipped in monitoring each and every transaction and they might be responsible for busting criminal activities that we hear in the news every now and then. The front action might be taken by the FBI but all the data analysis and monitoring and sharing of information will be done by the CIA.

So you want to change history and create a new one, whatever you do it will not change anything because basically humans has a herd mentality and it is not going to change as long as humans are alive.

The prime example regarding the herd mentality in the cryptocurrency space is, we started with BTCitcoin and what happens if everyone follows a single currency and not thousands of currencies. That was not the case here, even in BTCitcoin we have separated into different herds of big blocks and small blocks.

It is a dream scenario which is impossible to achieve. If you are able to convince a small group about one ideology then try with a bigger group and you will understand it is basically impossible to convince everyone .

Any difference this time around ? It will be the same scenario, everyone were celebrating when institutional investors were pumping money in the market and those investors can sell off the coins anytime and might drag the market down. So even in this instance anything is possible and the amount of money pumped by a few institutional investment firms is more than enough to drag the market down.

I missed majority of the competition but what i noticed after watching the tables is that the team batting first are winning the matches, i am yet to watch the series live to understand the pitch situation. West Indies under 19 lost against UAE under 19 and Uganda Under 19 who only scored 123 runs and yet Papua New Guinea under 19 was not able to reach anywhere near that score.

So with the performance till now, who has the chance to win the tournament ?.

There is not much discussion regarding this even in other crypto related groups and i am involved in a few NFT projects and even i did not notice anyone complaining about the issue as well and i first saw this thread here. I do not see OpenSea making any announcement regarding this issue even though i see another article just like you shared. If users come onboard with the issue, OpenSea will make a statement if it really happened.

Which means basically his cricket career is over. He is already 35 years of age and three and half years of suspension means a nail in the coffin. Two charges against him, for not informing the authorities when bookies approached him and then another one is doping charges, i never thought they will be checking for doping but he was caught in the test for using cocaine.

Even if he gets a reduced sentence, it will be over 2 years, which means he will not play again.

It looks you are really optimistic about the market and having a forecast down the line, but what i have seen throughout my time in this cryptocurrency space is that, the coins move their rankings all the time. So i wont be surprised if a few coins disappear from this list altogether . I am not having any undue expectations but i am expecited to see the market after the bear market this time around .

@OP If you think that it is a solid plan then you can go ahead as i have not bothered to look at the projects you mentioned because those are created just for the hype and they have served the purpose and the developers made a hell lot of money. I am curious to see how many followers these projects will be having once we have a major correction in the market. Think about all the variables and then make your decisions, either way it will be a good learning experience   .

The Australian players were happy about touring Pakistan even during the interview most of the players were happy touring the team and there is no way the CA will block the tour if the players are happy touring them. The only issue is see right now is the pandemic situations as new variants of the virus are spreading rapidly and if there is no other hurdles, the tour will go on as planned.

It is difficult to tame a player like Rishabh Pant where he performs if there is no restrictions set on him. The majority of his performance happened when there was no expectation from him and he performed well and came out with outstanding performance in Test matches and won the game.

Regard the captaincy of KL Rahul, he will be under immense pressure to lead the team when majority of the batsman were struggling and that pressure may have impacted his personal performance as a batsman in the ODI series. Either give him time or find a replacement.

A few tips here and there from any experts will not make any drastic changes to the technical striking of Francis Ngannou, i am sure he will be able to beat many Heavyweight boxers simply because of his power, but if he is planning to face Tyson Fury who is a technical wizard, there is no way he is going to land a punch.

Even against Ciryl Gane he was not able to land any punch on the feet, only with his takedowns he was able to dominate him. Forget landing anything near the face of Tyson Fury . Technically Tyson Fury is far superior than any boxers and his muscle memory is there from a small age and Francis Ngannou who learned boxing after 24 years could somehow scratch with him is ridiculous. Stick to MMA and fight non elite boxers, he could win against them for sure.

The basic thing i do not understand is that how the authorities are getting these tip offs, either the traders are vocal about their activity which is illegal in their country and boast about their profits to their friends and relatives, if not there is no way the authorities are going to pin the activities to them. The other option is P2P trading which is really risky if you are from a country that prohibits cryptocurrency trading.
