There is no way Ronaldo is playing for Manchester United from now on. As far as I have heard the team wanted him not to come back to the team after the World Cup. They are already trying to find a way to sell him as soon as possible. Ronaldo shares the same feeling as well of course. Apart from rumours, I wonder whether there is really a team interested in signing him in January.
We have mostly mentioned Chelsea and Napoli. Chelsea seem more likely to me as Napoli don't need Ronaldo as they have Osimhen already.
As well as thomas tuchel , graham potter thinks the same way that cristiano ronaldo transfer to chelsea would just make him in difficult to adjust the role , i mean he is the goat but with the current form he has ... it will only help chelsea financially as a brand to get more shirt sales etc.
Other than that , cristiano to chelsea unlikely to happen but cristiano seems really wanted it to make some revenge for manchester united to move to the club rival like chelsea.
I don't understand where chelsea takes these coaches, cristiano ronaldo would be excellent at chelsea, he would adapt very well to chelsea's style (if chelsea still has a style of play, because that way of playing that mourinho implemented is no longer has existed for a long time ), cristiano ronaldo in attack he could score many goals, because chelsea unlike manchester united has a good structure that facilitates attackers to have many opportunities to score goals, they just don't score because they waste it, they fail a lot. but ronaldo is efficient in attack. I keep asking myself if Chelsea's owner will listen to Graham Potter or try to convince him to accept ronaldo or simply accept Graham Potter's decision

Cristiano Ronaldo can still be a great player for the top-level teams of the English Premier League. The problem is his age. Even if some clubs are still eager to take him on the team, I think they know very well that they are not going to be investing in a long-term process with him.

But I actually think that is going to be perfect for Chelsea because they will be able to play Cristiano Ronaldo for a shorter cleared of time and when they get another player they will be able to concentrate on playing the younger player a lot more. And by that time Cristiano Ronaldo will also not be able to perform the whole 90 minutes. So, I don’t think Cristiano Ronaldo is going to be bad for Chelsea.

Trust wallet is a non-custodial wallet meaning they dont keep or saved your private keys so its totally safe since they dont know it, just keep your seed/keys into something safe from others and only you can access or trusted person you want, I have been using this wallet for almost a year now and I got no serious issues so far.
Sometimes they don't take action if only small money inside, If you think it's safe with that money there, then you will add and deposit more money, and after that, the scammer begin to take your money and you will surprise because (you thought it was safe). Just be careful, don't believe 100% in what you thought it's safe.


The only downside to Trustwallet is that it is closed source, which raises concerns that developers could change anything without our knowledge. It can be said that Trust wallet is now very safe, no one has trouble using it and it is really close to users with simple interface and operation. But we won't know what the future holds when Trustwallet's parent company crashes, that's Binance, a centralized exchange. As FTX, once they crash, their whole ecosystem collapses, which is very disturbing. You should only use non-custodial open source wallets.

I also just saw the news today, there are some allegations that the SBF has close ties to the Democrats and there are also rumors that the SBF has transferred billions of dollars to the Democrats. In the 2022 election, the SBF was the second-biggest supporter of President Biden's White House race with a total of $39 million. FTX's film becomes even more interesting when there are clues related to American politics, the more you watch it, the more confusing it becomes.

@m2017. The other problem caused by this collapse would be more aggression on how to regulate the cryptospace through more strict laws and regulations and more aggressive enforcement. The banks and other payment processors would also be strict in blocking transactions to and from exchanges.

However, what might be good from this is it might delay the government from creating and enacting new regulations. In America, there are some people who think that Sam Bankrupt-Fried was very close in putting the freedom in Defi in a coffin through his advice and his meetings in Washington DC.

Bix Weir says that LedgerX.com (CFTC approved derivatives since july 2,017) was FTX derivative arm, hence this should be investigated for regulatory action and result..

anybody to confirm that?

There was some confusion here and I figured this out. LedgerX.com is a leveraged company of FTX US and Ledger is a cold wallet company we all know as Ledger Nano X. Both are two completely different companies.

Everything is going well for Arsenal for now. Whether they become the champions or finish the season at the second position, the expectation level by their supporters will increase highly.
Arsenal's hard work so far has really paid off. They have really struggled so far, trying to fix the various problems they had in the last season. And their hard work has paid off, so far they are at the top of the EPL standings with pretty good processes and results.
At least from 14 matches, they only lost 1 time and drew 1 time, the rest were wins. Isn't this a very good result? In fact, Man City has not been this consistent. If they continue like this, it is possible they will become the holder of the trophy this season. Unless they make 2 mistakes, that might give Man City a bigger chance to overtake their ranking.

This season, Arsenal have been playing really well. At the end of the day, I think it comes down to management having faith in their manager. It is worth noting that Arsenal currently hold a five-point advantage over Manchester City, the team that is next on the table.

The good news is, as of right now, Arsenal has no cause for concern. However, the problem lies in the fact that there will be a big break in club football, and it will be very important for Arsenal to continue performing well like this even after that break. During the latter stages of last season, we all know what Arsenal's performance was towards the end of the season. I just don’t want to see that happen again.

Quote
The Seria A seems more interesting and entertaining to watch their games. Zlatan Ibrahimovic still fits in the game pattern of AC Milan. He's no longer active as usual, he's been involved in countless injuries over the past seasons and he's still confirming that he will be back to form. Ibrahimovic is one of the top giant frontline the rissoneri have at the moment and they still needs his presence in the team. Let's hope for the best from the Sweden international.

I think, Ac Milan players will be very happy to see him back to the team again because they really missed his absence in some matches, which their coach will allow him to train with their players so that there will be improvement after the break. Ibrahimovic is a talented player that know how to assist other players to ensure they achieve goals that will bring victory at the end of the match, which he will definitely showcase his new strategies to prove that he still remain among the talented players in this Italian league competition.

Sweden is for the most part dependent on Zlatan Ibrahimović. So without him, it is going to be very difficult for Sweden to do well in the World Cup.

And for AC Milan Zlatan Ibrahimović can still play well, because, as you said he fits in the style of that team. I hope that he recovers well after the surgery that he did. It will be hard for him to get back to that type of form which he was in prior to his surgery.

But his playing well is going to help both Sweden and AC Milan to get good results. after this World Cup, and the end of the season, I will expect a quick retirement from him, especially with all the injuries that he had.

...

(I have 2 house, which I want sell it is abandoned house)

abandoned house? it would be better if you sell that and invest the money into bitcoin (if I were in your position, then I would immediately do it). Renting it out will only provide a small passive income, especially if the location of the house is not in a strategic area.
bitcoin will definitely be bullish in the future, so don't miss the opportunity that is available now, now the price of bitcoin is minus more than 60% of ATH, therefore the best moment to buy is now.


He can sell it because this is an unused home, but you should not say that Bitcoin will definitely increase the price in the future, all are just predictable and nothing sure here. Bitcoin may increase or will never increase and buy Bitcoin you can buy anytime but for real estate, I'm not sure, you can sell but to buy back is sometimes a problem.

The sublease of that house may be a small income but it is passive and you use that money to invest and accumulate Bitcoin not too bad. It will help you minimize risks as well as accumulate Bitcoin, investing in Bitcoin is not in a hurry and nothing is too late.

Twitter can be profitable and a lot of benefits for him but with bitcointalk definitely not. In other words, twitter and bitcointalk are not the same, bitcointalk is not a place that can make a profit for someone's business but twitter was created for that purpose.


Bitcointalk is not for regular people actually. You'll know this if you try introducing this forum to local forums. Unless Elon has his own Bitcoin casino.

It will be both hard to get the both of those player's Mbappe and Oshime of Napoli they are top players for their respective clubs scoring goals for the club, and whoever eventually is been linked to raises the players worth even if he is not worth it. They should go under grown or in another league or country to find a player who can run has eye for goals and fits Into the coaches system. Mbappe wants to make history for PSG, Oshime will not move to United what will determine his regular game time
I still think Mbappe is an impossibility with a contract and salary and clauses that are clearly not easy to get even if both parties (Mbappe and the team that wants) agree that PSG will not make it easy.
But for Osimhen there is a bit of a difference, Napoli obviously want him to stay but when there is an offer that doesn't make sense it's clear they will think of it like with a price far more than the 100 million clause for example.
But indeed for Osimhen if his form continues like this sooner or later he will leave and I am sure of that.

I think it is obviously better if Victor Osimhen lives. And it’s better because of his career. If he stays, it will be helpful for the team that he is currently in. But I don’t think he will have a legacy if he stays on this team. And he has the option to choose if he wants money or if he wants a legacy.

Like Kylian Mbappé, who chose money over his legacy when he had the option to do so, when he had the choice. He could have moved to Real Madrid and built a legacy around his name. But he chose money and made the decision to stay at PSG.

There is no doubt that money plays a big role in all of this, and an offer of 100 million for Victor Osimhen is obviously going to be very difficult for his current team to refuse.
1651  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Not your key not your coins is real, not just quoted. (FTX Issue) on: November 17, 2022, 04:27:01 AM
It is not the first some users lost their coins because they didn't have access to their own keys. Do you really think all those that used or stored their coin on FTX never head about "not your key, not your coins"? Do you really think that they were not aware that they don't own the coins? Do you really think that they didn't know something like this could happen? They knew all of it. But they chose to ignore. They thought that it could never happen to an exchange like FTX, but they were wrong. But guess what, people will still keep on holding their coins in exchanges or non custodial wallets and act like nothing will happen to them. Right now, yes people are withdrawing coins from exchanges, but give it a week or two, people will go back to holding coin in centralized exchanges.

FTX has more than 1 million users and many of them hold money from a few million to several tens of millions of dollars, they know what they are doing. That's exactly what you said, I believe everyone knows what they're doing with their assets, they're not stupid enough to not know what it's like to put money in centralized exchanges. The only problem is their choice.

The need for centralized exchange will never go away and people will quickly forget everything and once again they will look to centralized exchanges. Binance announced that they are holding more than 74 billion and in the past days there have been a large number of investors withdrawing to non-custodial wallets but it only stopped at 150 million, a very small number compared to the 74 billion that Binance is holding. That shows a large number of investors are still using the centralized exchange on a daily basis.
1652  Economy / Exchanges / Re: What are the consequences after FTX bankruptcy? on: November 17, 2022, 04:05:23 AM
The effects of the FTX exchange crash will reverberate throughout the crypto currency industry for a long time to come. There is an opinion that this event can cause a chain reaction and create trouble for other projects and platforms. Perhaps in the near future we will already learn about them. But to be honest, I think it's good that this problem is exposed and it will allow the industry to clean up. Undoubtedly, this will cause pain and suffering, but recovery without this is impossible and the medicament can't be sweet. In the short term, the collapse of FTX is very bad, in the long run it can turn out to be good. Let's see where it leads, but I'm sure it will change the entire industry in a big way.
I support your point, the death of FTX will cause more pain for the market in the near future but that is a good thing because if not now and FTX soon becomes as big as binance and then the FTX bubble burst will deal more damage now.

These will be stains that adversely affect the reputation of crypto, but if you compare crypto with stock or forex, we are still very young and very vulnerable is inevitable. To become bigger and bigger, it is impossible not to make trade-offs and experience many tragic losses. There is no success without cost, sometimes in blood.

Looking at the current economic crisis, no one will want to lose their job because finding a new job at this time is not easy. I will also choose to pay cut, but I hope the company will also reduce our working time. Although it is difficult to find a full-time job that matches my specialty, I think I can find a part-time job to fill that free time.

I've seen a lot of companies lay off employees rather than pay cut, I'm lucky I don't fall into that situation but perhaps if the crisis lasts, it will be difficult to say what. Right now, saving is something I think we should all be doing to get through this, even though you or I haven't lost our jobs or taken a pay cut.

The empire of FTX and the companies they associate with and invest in.
OMG... list is much bigger than I thought  Shocked
There is so much shitcoin vaporware and crapware connected with FTX, and I am just waiting for the next big collapse to happen, maybe it's time for Solana to finally die, after stopping centralized blockchain numerous times.
It's not bad to see clean up and purging off some fake dex projects I see listed here, and maybe few more centralized exchanges will stop working soon.
Real danger I see is that few more stable coins are probably going to collapse and we can see bitcoin going down again as a result.
Better be ready for a bumpy ride in next few weeks and months.



FTX and alameda greatly contribute to Sol's success in 2021, the collapse of FTX will adversely affect Sol but whether Sol will die or continue to develop is decided by Sol, not FTX. The total number of Sol tokens purchased by FTX is 58 million and will be allocated from September 2021 to 2027 and will be unlocked monthly.

Recently, lending platform BlockFi, after blocking withdrawals last week, is said to be preparing to file for bankruptcy as it relates to FTX and Genesis, a crypto brokerage firm that also just announced suspended withdrawals.
https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/crypto-brokerage-genesis-suspends-withdrawals-at-lending-arm-1.1847224

Tough tournament for Nadal, his 2nd straight set loss against FAA yesterday. He's playing Ruud next, based on recent performances he'll lose that one as well.
He's out and has nothing to play for - and he doesn't even look physically able to cope anymore.

I'll try a cheeky bid on Rublev against Đoković today @3.50 odds. He played well against Medvedev, the odds are attractive although I do expect Đoković to win.

I absolutely agree with you. Nadal has not been playing well at all. And certainly, he is not going to be very confident about his next match as well. Especially after knowing how well his opponent is performing. And I think him not being able to play physically. Well, he’s also because of his age.

Rublev versus Djokovic match is currently going on. Novak Djokovic has taken the first set and looking much more comfortable compared to his opponent.

Not only Modric, but there are many other players who are likely to retire from their national team after the 2022 world cup. Ronaldo, Messi and many other top players seem the most likely candidates to retire after this.
Rakitic and Modric are two good midfielders for Croatia, they are great players with almost the same quality. I'm not really sure about Croatia in this world cup, that's because there are other countries that are really good to be favourites, like Brazil, France, Argentina or maybe England too. I chose Brazil as the favourite, they are looking very strong for the 2022 world cup.
Yeah, this is probably one of the world cups that will have the most retirements ever. I can't remember any other with more.
It will be an historic moment, and it will allow new stars to be formed. I'll keep an eye on the newer players as well as they're also going to try their best to put their names in the world stage. This is their opportunity.
Normally every year does have a lot of retirements, but this one will be a bit different because we are going to see Ronaldo and Messi not being available for the next one, and that makes people look at all the other names as well.
If you check all the previous world cups, there were a lot of retirements but not names as big as this before, there are no names as big as Ronaldo and Messi, those are the two greatest players ever in history of football and they are retiring on the same world cup, well at least from world cups. That is why we are taking a closer look to all the other names as well. This is why, it’s going to be difficult to watch them, and if they lose which they probably will, it will feel even worse.

There is no doubt that this World Cup is going to be one of the most exciting ever. We are talking about the World Cup after a pandemic and almost the start of the third world war. As a result of this World Cup, a lot of the greats of the game will also be retiring after this tournament.

In my opinion, this will be the most important World Cup in the history of the game. At the very least, this will be the most important World Cup of this century up to this point. There is a good chance that they will lose the game. (About Ronaldo and Messi) It will probably be the last time that we will be able to see them play in the international arena, which is why I am going to watch it.

Why they will take risks? when their target is small. Ben Stokes knows not to get too excited now. He stood at one side when the wicket was worn and most of the time he tried to play the ball. If Pakistan could have kept up some more run as their target, Ben Stokes could have been beaten there. But that didn't happen as England chased the runs. They claimed victory very easily. But such a easy victory may not have in their past winning history.

That's exactly what I said. And suddenly, I remembered one thing which is do you remember Ben Stokes getting hit for four sixes in a row against the West Indies? Carlos Brathwaite did the unthinkable. But after that, even though Ben Stokes lost England final for only one time, he brought home two World Cups, the one-day international World Cup, and also the T-20 international World Cup. That is the type of dedication every player should have toward his team.

And obviously, that target was never going to be enough for Pakistan doesn’t matter how strong their bowling lineup is. Especially against England.
1658  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: November 13, 2022, 06:32:07 PM
Of all the matches you mentioned and described, the most exciting was the Tottenham vs Leeds United match because Leeds scored an early goal against Tottenham in the 10th minute after which Tottenham replied in the 25th minute. Half of the half Leeds United were one goal ahead and after the second half started Tottenham again equalized through Davies.

Then the Leeds United players added another goal against Tottenham in the 76th minute, but not long after the Tottenham players responded again in the 81st minute and not long after the goal happened, the same player (Bentancur) from Tottenham again scored another goal which made Tottenham able to win the match.

This was a really close goal for Tottenham Hotspur. They actually found a way to make a comeback in the match. I thought we were about to see an upset in this match. Towards the end of the match, Bentancur actually came to the rescue for Tottenham Hotspur. And also some uncoordinated football from Leeds United helped Tottenham Hotspur to get back in the match.

Rodrigo was really good in that match for Leeds United. And honestly, the defense of Tottenham Hotspur was absolutely bad in that match. It almost always felt like one player from Leeds United was always getting in behind the defense of Tottenham.

Actually that match was quite unpredictable. But England winning chances were already high before. Because the batting lineup of England was more stronger than Pakistan. And it was seen in this match, as Rizwan and Babar Azam were also dismissed with few runs, and that's why they couldn't score much runs and it become pressure for Pakistan.And the result is England has become champion .
you are right England was the favorite in this match to become champions. Because their batsmen were in great form throughout the World Cup. On the other hand, the performance of Pakistan's batsmen is erratic. And Pakistan's main strength is their bowling line-up. But in today's match too Pakistan lost due to weak batting. If Pakistan's two openers could have scored a pair of 50s and given a target of 160 in today's match, the result of this match would have been in favor of Pakistan. However, Pakistan's bowlers have done well today. However, they need more improvement in their batting line-up.

Ben Stokes realized that there was no need to take any kind of risk because the target was not very big. And even though England lost a few wickets quite early, as far as I remember in six overs, they had already lost three wickets. That was certainly not ideal. But Ben Stokes kept batting responsibly. Obviously, we cannot say that Ben Stokes did it alone. But he was obviously the main man for England. And England also did very well to restrict Pakistan to a very low total.

Honestly, as soon as I saw the target given by Pakistan, I thought there was nowhere England is going to lose that match. But I think a lot of people still had hope because the bowling lineup of Pakistan is really good. But England showed again that they can take any bowling lineup on.

Where would Liverpool's strength go let us look for it because we really need it. LOL
You've just said Liverpool are no longer in power, but you also expect Liverpool to win against Southampton.

It's not Liverpool who don't have strength, but the Premier League competition that is already very tight. The club that was originally only a resident of the middle board or the bottom of the standings, has now turned into a club that can leave the top 4 mainstay clubs in the standings.
A positive trend that we must appreciate as connoisseurs of the Premier League competition.

Against Southampton later at Anfield, the power you say will be at its peak.
But unfortunately Liverpool will not be accompanied by Jurgen Klopp who reportedly received a punishment from the FA for the red card he received when Liverpool faced Manchester City based on sources I know.

We don't doubt the quality of Liverpool's players against Southampton, it doesn't mean Liverpool can get an easy win at Anfield because as you said in the 2022/2023 Premier League season, there have been many changes in the level of team competition. Many unexpected results will occur until week 38. Currently, the Premier League, which has played matches until week 14, also has many results that are out of prediction.

We'll see how far Liverpool are able to overcome Southampton without being accompanied by Jurgen Klopp.

Liverpool won the match against Southampton quite easily in the end. It is certainly a time when people are obviously going to doubt Liverpool about a lot of things. But I think that Liverpool does have the capability of making a good comeback in the English Premier League.  

I can see, Liverpool is in the sixth position right now, after that win against Southampton. So, I don’t think they are absolutely in that position from where they cannot do anything.

If they can stay in the sixth or seventh position before the break of the World Cup, (considering the fact that other clubs still have met us to play before the World Cup) I think they are going to be able to do well in that time when they come back for club football.
