Today England Women won the toss and they decided to take filling. I think England Women took the right decision. Those who bat first in this field lose most of the matches. Now India is batting.  India have now lost 5 wickets. They have scored 333 in 50 overs.  It is not yet known who will win this match.
It was a surprise to see that India Woman scored 333 runs and anything above 300 runs is still a huge total to chase for Woman's Cricket and full credits to Harmanpreet Kaur to play a captains innings as i never expected India to win while touring England. England lost their 8 wicket and it looks like England will be loosing by a huge margin.
Finally India have won the match as well as the series 2-0 with a match to be played. Harmpreet Kaur contributed good on the batting side and Renuka Singh took important wickets making the England team slow their performance. India with the series win have shown to the World that they're getting stronger with time.

Just on holding in fiat we're gonna experience loss with time. It is good to hold in terms of cryptocurrency or in the form of valuables like gold. As we don't have great access to cryptocurrency all around there is a need of fiat for day to day life. So, keeping aside the required funds in the form of fiat and investing the rest in cryptocurrencies is the good choice. Being in bear market it gives us the opportunity to invest less and accumulate more holdings.

England bowling seems to be completely disintegrating in the depth overs against the Indian women. Harmanpreet Kaur is just butchering the England bowlers and so far it is like a one woman show from her. India ends up at 333/5 after 50 overs, with Harmanpreet making 143. In the last 5 overs, England bowlers conceded a total of 80 runs. A win here would be massive for India, as they have already won the first ODI. This will be their first ever series victory in England, and will give a huge boost ahead of the 2023 ICC Women's T20 World Cup.
Watched the last 10 overs and loved every moment.

The last 5 overs were too much. Harmanpreet was on a rampage and also English bowlers bowled really bad against her. Tons of wides during that period, clearly debutants were feeling the pressure against Harman. This would be a record chase for England if they manage to cross the line.
Second highest score for India Women team. Firey performance from Harmpreet Kaur scoring 143 runs made India reach this score. Surely this is going to be a win for India. Reaching 334 runs is possible, but in today's situation England need to play hard from the beginning. Losing consecutive wickets in the beginning will increase the pressure, along with that it should maintain its runrate. This is really going to be very tough for England.

The effort taken is getting recognised and people are interested to learn more about it. If not, the principal wouldn't have taken the flyer and reached OP to teach the kids about bitcoin. The world is changing, and to the transition happening around we need to get used to it. For many people, bitcoin seems to be completely new. With the spreading about it through some means awareness is getting better over every part of the world. Congratulations OP for the efforts and the good thing done to the school children.

Same as we've got universal law, it is common to see the entire market experience downward movement when the price of bitcoin drops. Bitcoin is the reference market over which the rest of the altcoins rely. This makes a combined movement in the market with few exceptions that have a varied market movement as they look like manipulation.
1586  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Cars That Can Be Purchased with Bitcoin on: September 19, 2022, 11:41:29 PM
I have been considering buying an electric car for a long time because such a vehicle has some advantages.
Let it be, whether your plan is to buy with cryptocurrencies or fiat. Op have created a big list of dealers that accept cryptocurrencies for car. Most of the dealers were in a specific location. This means the access isn't widespread. Maybe they'll deliver all around the world, but the cost of buying and transportation will vary accordingly.

When the market situation is no more a problem, it is time for you to accumulate as much possible. The focus is long term profiting, it is good to stake leading cryptocurrencies on the market. Now ethereum too have got into the list. This will bring good return in the long run. Whenever you prefer staking over holding, it is good to choose the right platform. According to be Binance exchange have provided with various staking features that give priority in different launch programs.
1588  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which coin should u mine right now? on: September 19, 2022, 10:20:18 AM
After the ethereum merge dogecoin have took the second position as the largest cryptocurrency to operate on the proof of work consensus. This makes dogecoin to be one among the leading cryptocurrency for investment amidst it's role as a memecoin. Dogecoin too an old coin to survive in the market and that makes a good choice for the miners. For sure this will bring good profit, but not a big one at the shortest.
1589  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Fake Bitcoin. on: September 19, 2022, 10:07:12 AM
Bitcoin counterfeiting is very famous now and there are also some people who forge Tokens by naming Bitcoin, it looks like this will not work. Actually, this Bitcoin cannot be printed, it is not the same as fiat because Bitcoin cannot be printed, but we have heard a lot about Bitcoin imitators now, but for experienced users they will not be wrong about this.
Many people are starting to emulate bitcoin now, not only can it be run over the ethereum or BNB network, but many other centralized smart contracts can be used.
If you look closely, the logo they use is actually very similar to bitcoin, making it difficult for some beginners to recognize it. But in my opinion the chance to commit fraud is very small, because almost everyone knows exactly what bitcoin looks like.
And of course the imitators do all of that just to cheat and take advantage of some people, but sadly everyone is very well versed with bitcoin.
It is the old days people getting scammed in the name of bitcoin. Nowadays there is more awareness and people are good enough to differentiate bitcoin from the ones carrying the name bitcoin. Now the common term cryptocurrency is used as a trap, and somany unknown cryptocurrencies were suggested to people in the name of giving good return within months.
1590  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcoin as an electronic currency, can it be use for bet gambling on: September 19, 2022, 08:07:59 AM
As an electronic currency, I will like to know if bitcoin can be use in sport betting, apart from using your local currency, can I found my sport bet account using bitcoin.

Oh yes of course. Bitcoin has been a popular currency for sports betting. Not only is Bitcoin-supporting sports betting platforms gaining world wide acceptance nowadays, it has indeed achieved great success already. If you are new in Bitcoin betting, you must know that some platforms have already grown huge that they can already afford to sign deals and partnerships with big sports leagues, teams, and players.

Actually one of the earliest use-case of Bitcoin is for betting.
Yes, bitcoin usage into gambling is one of its usage through which bitcoin circulation was kept good. Later only slowly exchanges gave its entry. I still remember those days of spending bitcoin on sports bets listed by Directbet. Even there were misunderstanding among people that bitcoin is something thate is being innovated to support gambling.

Bitcoin and gambling can't be separated. Each were found with their usage. Someday scenario could Change that without cryptocurrency it isn't possible to gamble.

An unanimous decision win with scores of 116-112, 115-113 and 115-113 have made Alvarez win the fight. As the odds were @2.06, it means Duelbits have predicted Golovkin to win the fight. Finally the outcome have favoured the player with small marginal win. This have made him make such a title, I beat Duelbits. Anyhow congratulations to OP on making a win.
1592  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin anti-inflation? on: September 19, 2022, 07:30:50 AM

I don't like fiat, but this is a good point.

What would you prefer to do?

1) Take a $20000 loan at 5% interest rate and repay it 10 years later.

2) Take a 1 BTC loan at 5% interest rate and repay it 10 years later.

I think acquiring 1 BTC in 2032 will be darn near impossible, unless you're super rich.

On the other hand, 20k USD might not even be enough to buy a car due to inflation... easy repayment!

So yeah, I don't think BTC incentivizes a debt-based system.

This is both a good and a bad thing, depending on how you see it... some people consider debt a form of slavery (with invisible and not metallic chains), while others consider a debt-based system necessary to promote economic growth.

But economic growth (due to QE) also means that bubbles will be created from time to time... even BTC's bubbles every 4 years, since we're still in the fiat standard.
With fiat we can say firmly that the inflation increases with time. This happens with most currencies, and there'll be exception with few country's fiat. In all ways bitcoin is stronger than fiat in terms of inflation and other features, but what is being stated seems to be something on prediction and hope and not the truth. No one knows the future of bitcoin, based on the growth it have attained over the years we can expect growth with bitcoin that will be high against the inflated currencies.
1593  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Best Price To Buy Ethereum on: September 19, 2022, 07:07:07 AM
It can be said that this week is the worst for Eth, the price of dropping more than 34% and it seems that the negative trend will continue, at this time the ETH price is around $ 1300 and I put a price .
If the ongoing trend continues we can expect the price of ethereum to reach $900 from which the market of ethereum bounced. The merge will surely have a big impact over the market in the long term. Considering the growth of future what we see in the price drop seems right moment for investment.
1594  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: September 19, 2022, 05:37:55 AM
It is hard to underestimate any team with the momentum Sri Lanka have in the T20 format defeating India and Pakistan convincingly and Australia and New Zealand are not in good form in the T20 format, so you cannot underestimate Sri Lanka with the way they played in the Asia cup even though the matches were played in the UAE, pitches during the Asia cup were helping the fast bowlers .
Agreed. I don't think Sri Lanka is capable of winning the T-20 World Cup, but anything can happen since this is the T-20 format after all. My random prediction is that India/New Zealand will win the cup this time around.
With T20 format it is quite hard to make the prediction. The Asia Cup is a true example, upon that we can't be conclusive on the winner of T20 format cricket. There is a big discussion on the team squads, at times the best set of squad fails to make a win whereas the less popular players make big wins for the team.
1595  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: When betting becomes to high on: September 19, 2022, 05:15:19 AM
I've done that and landed into debt. If I haven't chosen to go beyond my ability, now I couldn't have experienced much of financial stress. Just because of the debt I was in a situation to earn additional to my day job. If not what I earn is enough to have a normal life. Anyhow its all my fate to experience such situation. Maybe I could've lost it somewhere else, if I haven't lost on gambling. This is how I pacify myself when I get into financial stress.

hi all friends. The 2022 FIFA World Cup is 62 days away from starting. I want to know, do you feel time is running slowly while waiting until the time for the 2022 FIFA World Cup to start?

I myself feel like time is slowing down. maybe because I can't wait to watch the World Cup game. 2 months to the world cup feels a bit long for me. do you guys feel the same? or quite the opposite?
Time is running and we're getting close to the start with every passing day. Whenever we wait for something, it looks long and the same when gets over it ends in no time. Atleast the discussions keep you away from thinking about the time left for the matches to begun.
1597  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why going for 1.02 odds and below on: September 19, 2022, 03:22:00 AM
The only thing that comes to my mind when you mention low odds are parlay bets. Individually such a bet is not worth it but it can increase your payout if you go for a combo.
It can also be worth it for people who want to take low risk with big money. Betting $10 sucks in this case but what if you had 10k to bet and thought this is a sure bet?
In combined bets it'll add value. Apart from that it is high risk of the same odds were followed on the Casinos. With sports betting on sure bets, it'll give hands depending on the bet amount. Higher the bet amount, high will be the return. Very importantly these bets can help with increasing the wager.

1st winner
2nd winner and
3rd Winner.

Say your mind.
1st: England
2nd: Germany
3rd: Portugal

This is my list for the FIFA World Cup 2022. Germany plays well in my opinion, but they are missing something. That’s why I don’t think they’re going to win. My gut tells me england will win this year.  Smiley
The expectation over the team keeps varying with time. For now it is Germany to win. Other than Germany Brazil is in the order next to Germany. Portugal is expected to play good, but the dependence over individual player won't succeed all the time. England have got fair chance, but it had won in the 1966 world cup and it is the only title. Compared to those days, now the teams have got great improvement which makes every match more competing.

Exciting news people.

https://indianexpress.com/article/sports/cricket/bcci-set-to-introduce-substitute-impact-player-in-its-t20-tournaments-including-ipl-8155999/

This whole 'Impact player' stuff sounds really interesting and it looks like they borrowed this concept from the Big Bash league. I feel that this could change the T-20 format in a big way over the course of time.
That is really good to have such a rule in the T20 format cricket. Through this rule the result of the match too can change. Anyhow slowly things are getting to be more fancy and the true cricketing is losing its importance. More and more changes make cricket more commerical and it is getting to be a big business. The true cricketing changes need to happen with the test format cricket.

History gets rewritten and the same is taking place with bitcoin. Once the negative things and the scam information on see bitcoin can be seen on news sources. Apart from that it is quite hard to see bitcoin on leading news portals. Now things have changed a lot and news sources have started to broadcast the good about bitcoin. This is a big transition and the same will continue further.

Years back it is rare to see news on bitcoin once in a month on local media. Now the trend is different, separate programs are being broadcast to create awareness on cryptocurrency.
