It is a greed trend like DeFi, NFT, Metaverse, GameFi, it's not different. When greed is over, game will be over and most of people who buy those tokens will face with loss.

AI is useful but it brings plus and minus for human depending on how each person use it. Generally, I believe it will bring more bad effects than usefulness. Like with smart phones, nowadays it is so hard for me (maybe us) to remember phone numbers of my relatives. That is certainly bad and it shows that we are relying more on technical devices. When devices broken but we are in emergency, what to do?

With AI, I believe it will negatively affect young generation. They will rely on it more and become more lazy with their brain activities. With less mental, brain exercises I think it is not good for them in future.

Switzerland and European nations are already friendly with Bitcoin so El Salvador don't change anything in Switzerland with this action.

It is only kind of noise on media that is good generally and for Bitcoin adoption too but I disagree if saying like El Salvador and their Embassy in Switzerland are changing a whole Bitcoin adoption there.

It's not just the Bitcoin adoption in El- Salvador but it's also some other countries accepting Bitcoins on their own , I recently went to Budapest, Hungary and there was an amazing Bitcoin cafe!!
Blockchain is future of human civilization and Bitcoin is a king in blockchain industry so it is normal to see it almost everywhere.

Did that Bitcoin cafe accept their payments in both Bitcoin mainnet and Bitcoin Lightning Network?

There's this sentiment people have towards Madrid players.
In the match, Vini Jr. played very well and he brought too good momentum for Real Madrid attacking system. He failed to score at least one goal to help Real Madrid get three points because he was unlucky and bad with his accuracy. However, I don't think it is fair enough to criticize him for why Real Madrid lost 2 points in the match. They are a team and other players are responsible for it too.

Quote
Look at you now saying Vinicuis was unlucky, but if it was any other player that's not a Madrid player you'll say he was wasteful. Vinicuis was very wasteful yesterday.
Vini is so young and he has grown up too much in last three seasons. With his talent and professionality, he will be able to grow up more.

Quote
Velverde was awful all round.
Really? He has played a better season than expected at start because he has become a more goal productive midfielder. You can not blame on a midfielder when a team can not score a single goal in a match.
1725  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: January 30, 2023, 11:25:18 AM
That is correct. It was easy to predict Napoli win, that's for sure. Things are not going so good for Roma anyway. Their rotations are too narrow. They come out with the same 11 to the closing team
They don't have enough good players on bench and they can only play well with the intensity of one match weekly. If the intensity is higher, like 2 or 3 matches weekly, they will not have enough player resource to do it well. Not mention about any case of injury or suspension.

Like in a match with Napoli, Lorenzo Pellegrini played after 2 weeks of unavailable and no training. He was not ready and did have a bad match for Roma.

Quote
The starting 11 is okay, but the number of players you can get substitutions from is almost non-existent. Except for el shaarawy and belotti, there are no tangible players on the bench. Belotti couldn't give you a long wait anyway. And when he takes the place of Abraham, it doesn't have much effect. Two players of the same type, with the same characteristics.
Belloti is too slow and he is no longer dangerous like he was a few years ago. El Sharawy brings more flexibility for Roma tactics and he is their best player on bench. With problems related to Zaniolo and Karsdorp, Roma will have more issues with their player resources next months.

I hope Napoli continue to have this squad. Because if they continue to have this squad, maybe they can continue to get successful results in the Champions League after a few years. They can even become a better team with a few accurate player transfers. If they manage to use this opportunity well, they can dominate Italian Serie A for many years. They have already managed to garner sympathy from around the world. Because everyone enjoys watching their matches.
It is unrealistic hope. With clubs like Napoli, they will have so many challenges after one successful season. First they will almost be impossible to repeat that success in a next one or two seasons so it will result in disappointment for their star players. Second they will not be able to satisfy demand of players to increase their salary. Net effects, they will lose most of their best players in one or two seasons.

Cryptocurrency can not totally replace fiat currency or CBDCs. Consequently crypto banks can not completely replace traditional banks, never.

Regulations on cryptocurrency are very limited and dramatically less than on traditional banks so we can not expect to see a same growth of crypto banks like traditional banks. It takes so much time when more and better regulations will be approved and applied in cryptocurrency market. Until that day, don't expect what you're asking.

We don't need such replacement without more and better regulations because  without such stricter regulations, we will only see more scam in cryptocurrency including crypto banks.

The AC Milan vs Tottenham match in the Champions League will be held in about 2 weeks from now.
2 weeks are long enough to fix minor issues but it is too short and is not enough to fix major problems.

Quote
So that the current performance of the two teams cannot be a strong reference for later. But AC Milan might indeed be the favorite in this match. because AC Milan hosted the match. But we also need to know that currently AC Milan's performance has decreased slightly. even lately AC Milan has not won back either in Serie A or in the Coppa Italia. Even in Serie A AC milan has suffered a big defeat by Lazio with a score of 4-0.
From latest performances from AC Milan, they are likely facing with major problems that need more than 2 weeks to resolve. Tottenham in contrast, have very good form recent weeks and they will likely be able to maintain it until the match with AC Milan in Champions League.

Quote
But as I said that the last 16 match for AC Milan vs Tottenham will take place in 2 weeks from now. so maybe at that time AC Milan will return to their best performance again. But if until then AC Milan don't show their best form again then I think Tottenham will probably win the last 16 match later.
It is only your hope and I think your belief is untrue. AC Milan likely have something serious in their team and not only because of temporary form so that they will hardly to fix it all within 2 weeks.

Compare their latest forms and their problems especially AC Milan, I think Tottenham should be considered as a stronger team in their first-leg match even it will be hosted in San Siro, a home stadium of AC Milan.

Do you think the coins related to web3 and metaverse are bubbles?
Web3 is a great innovation for human. More freedom, more control on their coins and tokens and it can be applied more for decentralized exchanges and trading on such platforms.

However Metaverse is too broad and it has vague definition as well as unclear utility. It is abused by scammers and incapable teams to build their products using Web3 and Metaverse to easily attract investors, collect funds from them and at the end they either scam exit or fail with their products.

Quote
I think there's enough potential for improvement, what do you think?
I think it's very interesting to be able to store something valuable in a digital wallet, such as a meta mask, just like keeping items in my own inventory in a game or cartoon.
There are space and time for improvement but in the meantime, people should prepare themselves with knowledge and carefulness to avoid scams related to Web3 and Metaverse.

If they get scammed, it is not because Web3 and Metaverse are something bad, it is mainly because they are bad to protect themselves (unknowledgeable, very careless and extreme greedy).

Just like nowadays, people can be scammed on Internet and they can not say Internet is something bad.

Cheaters and penetrator will always do their best to attack the casino, it's true that having a bonus will be good for new casino to attract potential users and like what you mentioned, it's better to have that system who can detect and prevent cheaters to go along and overused the system, it will help to avoid the owner to lose their funds.
Terms of service, FAQ are most important pages of a casino that are too sensitive for casino reputation. Jackbit should focus on it, check it carefully to see anything missing or not and if something has yet included by mistakes of composers and compliance team, they must add it as soon as possible.

Quote
Allocating good portions of budget for bonuses and promotion, plus having that system to protect your business, is really needed to balance everything. You always need to make sure that you are not allowing cheaters to take advantage of your intent bonuses for your target gamblers.
A next thing to do that is related to bonus, promotion campaigns are their rules: how to join, how to claim rewards, bonus and so on. Such programs are so vulnerable to cheating so having clear and strict rules for them is best ways to protect casino reputation, budget as well as help to build up reputation of the casino and expand its customers.

If a guest joins such campaigns and fails to claim their rewards or bonus because of unclear rules, if they are not cheaters, they will say good bye.

I noticed that he wanted to send it to someone.
I don't know what your friend did at the moment but likely he had bad practice on his phone that leaked what he was doing to you. I hope that he did gave you good introduction and security advice for your bitcoins. Maybe he did not do it because he failed to do good practice for himself.

One of the biggest issues I had that year, and it was the worst year of my life, was that I was very poor, and I didn't have extra money to gamble on something I don't know about. As a result, I concluded that I can't gambling on this.
When you understand about Bitcoin and have a right approach, investment, it is no longer a kind of gambling. Gambling with Bitcoin is for someone who don't understand it and only want to get in, bet in it and wish to get rich.

I'm furious at myself for not purchasing bitcoin sooner. Though I'm a happy man now because I can now smile at my wallet.

1731  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: January 28, 2023, 12:16:45 PM
It is going to be boring when the number one team on the table is leading by so many points. Right now, Napoli is way ahead of everyone else. That has caused the title race to be a little boring.
It is abnormal to see Napoli dominate Serie A like what they're doing in this season. A match between Napoli and AS Roma next two days will be important for Roma first to keep up their hope and race with other clubs for top four. Second, if Roma win it, they will make Serie A a little bit more exciting even it won't change too much if Napoli won't lose in more matches.

Quote
The spots after that are a little competitive. Actually, they are very competitive. Milan, Lazio, Inter, Atalanta, and Roma all are very close to each other in terms of points. So the competition between these teams are very close and competitive. If we do not think about the fact that the top team is right now 12 points ahead of the second team on the table, the lead is still quite competitive.
First other clubs must try to beat Napoli by themselves and hope that other clubs can make Napoli lose points as well. If they can not do it by themselves, it does not make sense to blame their failure to other clubs which are opponents too.

Second, the race amongst five clubs for only 3 positions left for top four excluding Napoli is so exciting. Everything can happen with this race as from AC Milan to Atalanta, there are only 3 points difference.

Liverpool may be in poor form. They are not playing well consistently. The players are not in good form. But is the Real Madrid team stable now? I don't think so.
In comparison, Real Madrid have a better ranking in La Liga than Liverpool have in Premier League. Their general performance in this season is better than what Liverpool have too.

Quote
At the same time, if for some reason Benzema is absent in this match, then the Madrid team will be weaker. The Madrid team lost the Supercopa title after losing against Barcelona.
Benzema is still very important for Real Madrid but their whole system is better than Liverpool and they have more star players who can help them to win matches. Lately we saw how Rodrygo and Vini Jr. can play so well to help Real Madrid beating Atletico Madrid.

In Liverpool this season, when Salah lost his best performance, other attacking players hardly to cover scoring task for Salah.

Quote
Liverpool's team is not stable but they have a lot of experienced players in the team. And they will definitely try to put in a good performance against Madrid. The match will be competitive. I don't think Real Madrid will dominate and win unilaterally.
I don't consider Liverpool as a weak team but as said they are weaker than Real Madrid and currently have worse form than Real Madrid.
1733  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: January 28, 2023, 03:04:17 AM
Schalke will return to 2.Bundesliga again, they just came to say hi and bye... With such poor performance whether in defence or in the attack line, they cannot stand even above the relegation zone.
Time flies so fast and things change so fast in Schalke. They used to be one of biggest clubs in Bundesliga and made some surprise in Champions League with Raul Gonzalez who moved from Real Madrid to Schalke. Today they have no longer been a strong club like years ago and they have so bad performance in Bundesliga this season.

There are so many things that need to be solved in schalke. Its performance was the worst in bundesliga. I would not be surprised if schalke may come back again to the bundesliga in the future. I don't know why performance of schalke was so bad. I know that schalke was rarely selling its players unlike dortmund but the performance is the worst in the league. Hertha and bochum are the underrated team at this moment. These clubs have potential. Schalke will be going back again to the lower competition.
Schalke deserves it caused by it has very bad performance.
With a horrible season like this, Schalke will be relegated out of Bundesliga and in next summer, they will have tons of things to resolve. If they want to return to Bundesliga, they have to resolve their problems in the summer and might need two seasons or even more to return to Bundesliga.

In last five years, Bundesliga have some emerging clubs like Leipzig, Freiburg but some traditional big clubs are losing their positions in the league. Schalke is one of big clubs with decreasing performance.
1734  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: January 28, 2023, 02:58:24 AM
I think that either team arsenal or menchester city were seeing FA cup as an important thing too. The thing that makes the match less attractive caused by arsenal was not often doing attacks against city. that's why the match a bit boring. We shall accept the truth if city was winning the game.
Both of them did not consider FA Cup is so important for their club objectives in this season. Therefore, they did not use best resources for that match but with a similar approach, Arsenal have less resources to do than Manchester City. So with better player resources for that match, Manchester City won it and it is an understandable result.

Quote
Arsenal will be facing everton soon. this could become a very good match to boost the mentality of arsenal's players again after it lost against city. City thinks FA cup has given the club better chance to win the trophy rather than EPL.
Arsenal did make a good brave decision to give up FA Cup. From now on, they can totally focus on Premier League and if anything else can drain their concentration for Premier League, it is Europa League only. Having one less objective in this season looks better for Arsenal.

Everton just sacked Lampard and it can be a good advantage for Arsenal to beat Everton in the coming match in Premier League.

Quote
Manchester city will be facing totenham soon. this is good for totenham caused by city's players may be tired after the match against arsenal.
It is a big match for both Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur because they both don't want to lose it. With Manchester City, a win and three points can help them to maintain their race with Arsenal and with Tottenham, 3 points will help them to race with other clubs for top four.
1735  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season on: January 24, 2023, 02:48:48 PM
I do believe there will be something different with Chelsea in the upcoming match against Dortmund. The result between Chelsea against Liverpool has been making me even more confident to believe chelsea will be able to beat dortmund.
They will try to beat Dortmund because winning Champions League is something really big and attractive. It is especially important for Chelsea because they almost won't be able to complete the season in top four. Winning Champions League will give them a privilege to be eligible for Champions League 2023 - 2024 even if they end Premier League 2022 - 2023 not within top four.

Quote
Dormunt may lose some of its players at the end of this transfer season while Chelsea has been getting so many new players coming to the club. The performance from mudryk was making me amaze if chelsea was doing the right transfer.
It is only very first minutes of Mudryk for Chelsea and it is too early to assess his performance and success in Chelsea. At least it gives Chelsea some hope that it is a good player and the expensive transfer is well deserved.

Quote
Even though the result was not making me feel satisfied but I do believe chelsea will be different when it will be facing dortmund. Potter has found a new strategy that is very suitable for Chelsea.
What is a new strategy found by Potter? I did not see any big change in Chelsea after the winter transfer. Some players came to Stamford Bridge but it is very vague about what kind of contribution they can make for Chelsea.
1736  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: January 24, 2023, 02:33:20 PM
Spurs against Manchester City looks like this will be an exciting match, especially after knowing that Arsenal previously managed to win over Manchester United, of course Man City will exert all their strength to win the match later against this so that they can continue to stick to Arsenal on the standings.
Spurs need to win to catch Manchester United that have 3 points more than Spurs. Manchester City need 3 points to at least won't be fall further behind Arsenal. Not yet mention about reducing the gap with Arsenal, they must maintain the 5 point difference firstly.

That match between two clubs would be exciting because they both have very good form recently and with ambition to win for their own targets, a fourth position and a race with Arsenal, they will contribute an exciting match for us.

They have two best strikers in Premier League this season, Haaland with 25 goals and Kane with 16 goals. They are two best top scorers in Premier League temporarily but likely they will be two best scorers at the end too.
1737  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2022/23 Season on: January 24, 2023, 11:41:49 AM
I would like to know where you got this information from. Ten Hag is obviously a conflicted coach (if I remember correctly at Ajax he also got rid of a promising player who then went on to perform well) and conflicts do not necessarily manifest themselves immediately or even in the form of scandals. For example, if Rashford leaves for PSG, among other things, because he does not like Ten Hag, will we find out about it (at least immediately)? I highly doubt it.
Ten Hag is like a coach who was given too much power in Ajax Amsterdam after helping them to get success many years. He has the power to choose players to buy and players to sell if he does no longer like them.

He is given similar power in Manchester United to rebuild their club and so far he has been successful with his management. A coach no matter who he is, can not satisfy all players in a club but if he can help his club to get good achievement, it is good management result which will be recognized by the club owner and respected by their fans too.

If there is a star player to leave Manchester United, I believe he will be either Harry Maguire or Jadon Sancho. Maguire has higher odds to leave the club and a next player is likely Sancho who does not show any improvement after all.

So far, they didn't give any bonus yet for newly registered bitcointalk users, If they gift, we can put it here; https://www.jackbit.com/en/account/freespins?bonus

as we know several casinos launched here always give bonuses for new users to get fun and attract their interest to deposit. Maybe is not for all, but by give the bonus, that make also any feedback and review how good that site is. which means, indirectly find if any crucial bugs.
Bonus for new users is very attractive and gamblers like it but if a casino launch a bonus program, they must prepare tools to detect cheaters as well as write clear rules for the program.

It is best to have prevention than a cure and prevent cheaters is helpful for the casino reputation too. It is common to see cheaters failed with their cheating attempts and play ugly to attack the casino after that.

Writing a fully clear rules for bonus program is key because if a casino is already operated, I believe they already have tools to detect cheaters.

As a Chelsea supporter, I'm thrilled with the team's potential for improvement brought about by our recent signings.
New players are new blood streams for Chelsea and they are useful for them when many players are still injured or have yet recovered fully.

Quote
t's true that it'll take some time for the team to gel and the coach to execute new methods, but I have trust that our leadership can handle the situation.
New players usually need time for training and playing with new coach and team-mates before they actually adapt to a new club with many new things: management philosophy, tactics, training center, build connections with new team-mates. It is so rarely to see newcomers can create big impacts shortly and if they succeed, they must be outstanding players and have lucky support too.

Quote
Remembering that football is a team sport in which the success of the team depends on the efforts of each individual member is equally crucial. I think we have a shot at the playoffs if we can enhance our performance with the correct strategies and a concerted team effort.
That is what I am worrying about Chelsea situation. New players can not change all things including weakness in the club especially systematic weakness. They can bring some new motives but can not improve the club entirely. However if they can create some short-live effects which can be took advantage by other members in the club, some big impacts can happen.

Surprisingly Inter milan suffered a home defeat against Empoli at the San Siro stadium.
I have to correct you on this. AC Milan and Inter Milan use a same stadium as their home one but the stadium name is different when different Milan use it.

If a host is AC Milan, the stadium is called as San Siro. In contrast if a host is Inter Milan, the stadium is called as Giuseppe Meazza.

Quote
The il Nerazzurri squad seems to be in a stalemate to score goals in this match, even though in the previous game they were very strong in terms of scoring goals. Statistically, Inter Milan only did 1 shot on target, while Empoli was able to outperform it with 8 shoots on target. The Empoli goal was scored by young player Baldanzi who is still only 19 years old when his left foot shot hard into the net of goalkeeper Andre Onana.
It is a very poor performance from Inter Milan and it is more disappointed because Empoli is a club that in middle of table. It means they are not a too strong club and Inter Milan should not lose all three points to clubs like Empoli. It is so harmful for their race with some top clubs for top four position.

Stats show Empoli actually have a better match and a goal from Baldanzi only makes the match more terrible for Inter Milan.

Quote
At the moment, in my opinion, the position of the Inter Milan standings is not safe in the top 4, considering that many of its rival clubs have the same points or even a small distance, so the opportunity to shift Inter Milan in the next match is very wide open.
They are not safe in top four. Behind them, AS Roma have 37 points, Atalanta have 35 points with same 19 matches. Under two clubs, there is Lazio with 34 points after 18 matches and they have one more match which can help them to earn 37 points totally too.

Inter Milan can lose their position in top four just after one week.
