I do think of the possibility of the metaverse being used by a lot of people around the world. Even the VR and AR that we have today, you’d hardly see anyone making use of it, except just a few people who are able to afford it for themselves. And it is being said that the Metaverse is not yet fully out, and like you have said, we are going to be needing computers with huge capacities to be able to run this metaverse.

Having such computers means extra cost, so how many people would be able to afford such computer? If people wouldn’t be able to afford having access to the metaverse, then what would be the need for it? Although I do know that the rich would be able to afford such easily.

I do not think that it really worths something for Inter to lose in the cup though. They are doing fine in the league and the league is not over and far from easy for them so if they got eliminated from the cup then they could put all their interest towards the league which would have been awesome for them. Otherwise I do not think that winning both the cup and the league is that much realistic at this season, they are not "that" good.

As long as they win the league they would be fine, that is good enough money for them to survive. Milan could get the cup, which they deserve and that way both good teams would have something to show for this year.

I mean he is definitely getting older, so it makes sense to sell him instead of lose him for nothing. However, I also do not get why they couldn't agree on a renewed contract neither. I mean he shouldn't ask insane amounts anyway, and they should pay him what he asks if it is reasonable. Either one party or the other doesn't ask something reasonable, either the team offered too low or Lewa asked too much.

By the looks of it, if he leaves, he is not going to make too much money anywhere else neither, who would pay a 34-35 year old Lewa insane amount of money? Sure he would be paid millions, which is insanely high when compared to normal person, but not 20+ million or something. Yearly 10 million for someone at that age is more than enough if you ask me.

Yeah, it seems the new skipper's decision making was the reason for the defeat in the first ODI even India got decent start initially. I guess Venkatesh Iyer should open for India and KL Rahul at four. Also, I guess Instead of playing 2 spinners in South Africa, India need to go with one more pacer to have better bowling attack. India need to fix many things to stay alive in this oneday series not sure how Dravid and Rahul combo going to address at this crucial time.

Probably India will make 2 or more changes to have better approach on both batting and bowling still KL Rahul's plans on high pressure times is a key here. In my opinion also, KL Rahul did few questionable decisions in IPL's last 2 seasons.

There will be absolutely no point on holding stable coins for any period of time. Probably in stead of holding fiats, you may prefer to hold stablecoin but it will be too risky as stablecoins are not regulated ones hence any problem may occur at any time. I am also making use of stablecoins for trading purposes as my local exchange is not having a fiat based trading pair for any cryptocurrency.

You meant crowdfunding? I am sure not most people here are into such activities to use stablecoins. I guess, instead of fiats that you are using stablecoins to raise funds for your projects; yeah, we can use stablecoins anywhere we need to use dollars.

The kind of opportunity that came with Dogecoin and SHIB is the kind that comes once in a while. And it is something that happens when you least expect it to happen. So, let’s say that you decide to buy these coins and keep them in your wallet, how long would you be able to hold these coins ,is it going to be two years, five years, or ten years?

And what if it is something that is going to repeat again in the next 15 years, would you be able to hold for that long? So that should be the question. And another thing you also have to know is that new trends are coming out almost every year in the cryptocurrency market, and they might likely clear out this old coins or projects, just like we already have the Metaverse and NFT.

Even if sevilla wins, there is really nothing they could to catch a team like Real Madrid. All these people who want to see Sevilla to win the league are probably Barcelona fans, because I do not believe that there are this many sevilla fans in bitcointalk. I believe that Real winning the league is the best outcome, I am not from spain and I am not fan of either team, ideally for me Barcelona and Real should always be the top two teams, why? Because they are already great and if they are great and get more money than they will stay great.

By Sevilla winning, we are making sure a team that will not be great in a year end up getting the money Real should have gotten, which is not ideal if you ask me. This is why I believe that good teams should get better when other teams are horrible. Of course I get bored of great teams winning all the time, like I want someone else to win bundesliga once, but we had ATM win last season anyway, so La Liga is not there.

That is actually one of the key requirements to be a wise person. All wise people would know that they know very little, there are SO many information and data points out there in the world that you can never learn all off it. An academic could focus on just one point on something, like a philosophy professor would learn so much about the topic, but they do not even claim to be all mighty about it, they do niche like "ancient greek philosophy" and when it comes to industrial age German version they say there are better ones.

That is just one topic, and professors are great at one niche of that one topic. Imagine how little we know about the whole world. So if you ever want to be wise, first you have to accept the fact that you know very very little about the world and you need to study forever in order to know just %0.1 of all the information and will probably fail.

This is great, affiliate is where I shine and I like to actually send people information regarding this but more importantly I know a few places that have very low price on banners so I usually get some banner done and then share that in multiple places and that allows me to make a good amount of money and end up with something that is profitable. It doesn't mean that I will have a ton of affiliates but it just means that I like to do what I can and sometimes it ends up with good amount of affiliates.

The rates are not that bad neither, considering the BFG mining as well which is something I really like, maybe I will use all the other earnings to get BFG as well, who knows? I know that it doesn't really mean much, but it just means that I get to do whatever I want to do and still earn a small amount of money if I am lucky without doing too much, it is just one time work to put up the banners, rest is free money, like passive income.

That is something I have been doing for a while. I mean if you are not sure about what's going to happen with the market and you are not sure that what you will see today or tomorrow, just go with the long term deal. I have been a long term investor for a while now and I have been making a good money, which allows me to not check the price every single day. I check the prices time to time of course, but probably like 3-4 times a week and nothing more.

This means there are 2-3 days or sometimes even longer where I do not check the price at all. That is the way you could stay calm, sometimes I check the price and I see that it dropped a lot, sometimes I realize bitcoin got TT on twitter and see that something big happened. That's literally the only way you could make a profit from the crypto world, by ignoring it and just following your own strategy no matter what happens.

I believe if they could get Bale then they would have, but Traore have been in the premier league and he is not as expensive when you look at the salary differences. Bale is great and all but he has a very high salary so that is the biggest difference. Which is the main reason why they are probably looking at him. Plus Traore is 25 years old and that is a big difference to be fair, if a player is 7 years younger than you could get that player and then make them play a bit better by fitting them into your strategy as well.

So, this is not a horrible transfer choice to be fair, yeah I would agree that if you could get Bale for free and get him to accept a very low salary then you would prefer that, but if not then I would say that Traore with cheaper salary and 7 years younger looks like a better deal to get done, you can get more out of him.

For hard core fans, missing out the opportunity of whitewash might be a big thing and we cannot say anything to their perception. Moreover, some gamblers might have placed bets on 5 - 0 whitewash, what if you have lost such a bet by one wicket due to captain's decision making skills (if England would not have lost up to 9 wickets then people might have taken this scenario differently).

I am sorry, I am not aware of any significant change of rules regarding this; could you please link if me to any references if possible; thanks for your time.

It is always exciting to watch new talents as they are going to represent their country in international stages very soon. I had watched many players like that and as expected they have grown and been successful in international stages. I mean everyone must be having their own reasons to follow different format of games.

As these days lots of sports are happening simultaneously I do pick the games which are potentially going to thrill me. For cricket, I do watch these days big bash but surely will watch major teams and all knock out stage matches for this U19 WC tournament as well.

Airdrops are not the way to become rich if you ask me. Back in the day I worked to build an airdrop hub type of deal. Where you would see all the airdrops in a single web page, which is not unheard of and there are websites like that so it wasn't unique or anything like that. My hope was that if I can do the website, I would be doing like affiliate link to all the airdrop projects and can get hundreds of people going to those projects via my link and I could earn more airdrop.

So, I was even risking my own income as well, if the project sucked then the airdrop I got would be zero and I wouldn't be paid to provide this service at all. So I know what I am talking about when it comes to airdrops and aside from maybe like 5 of them, the entire history of airdrops doesn't have decent returns, it is totally useless and worthless and doesn't worth a thing unless you get thousands of affiliates.

It is not easy to calculate where it is going right now because even though it is still used a lot, there are also a lot of people who stay away from ETH because of the gas fee situation. I am 100% sure that if the gas fee was under 1 dollars, then we would definitely have a lot of people using it, we already have a lot but there would be even more that uses it. However, the reality is that since ETH is used so much because of the gas fee, that causes people to buy it, and then spend it on the gas fee, if you make it lower than people would participate in projects but since they do not need ETH too much, they will not buy it too much.

So, while gas fee causes some people to stay away, it also causes many people to buy ETH and increase the price indirectly. I do not know which one would be better for ETH, getting more people involved or having a bigger utility with gas fee?

Yes, scammers and abusers are always part of this gambling industry and to maintain their reputation high, gambling houses always need to work hard because they need to convince this community as well when they are taking hard decisions like suspecting withdrawals or banning accounts. When such people are always existing, I guess that we cannot expect all famous houses to remain out of disputes.

Even many disputes occur, how those gambling houses providing resolutions and justifying their action will again help them to build their reputation more stronger. So, for a honest gambling houses all such abusers are not really a concern.

I definitely think that Goldman Sachs have been quite bullish on bitcoin for a long time. It is not a new story and they have been promoting it for a long time as well. It is quite obvious that they "want to" see it at 100k and that is why they are making speeches like that. Plus, they probably have some money in bitcoin and considering it is not their money and instead their investors money that means they also have to make public posts like this as well.

So all in all, I am definitely sure that they do believe what they are saying but also even if they didn't then they had to still say these things which makes their own words not credible enough at all.

This is the biggest problem that the world has right now. People who downplay the importance of it like you. If you accept that it is real and it kills people, why would you try to avoid having a protective situation? If you could have cancer by talking with people, wouldn't you avoid it? If you could have a heart attack, wouldn't you avoid it?

There are a lot of people all around the world who follow these rules because they do not want to die, is that really so hard to understand? I mean we all KNOW that people die from covid, so is it too much to ask everyone to be more careful so we do not die? Lockdowns makes sure that you get paid or stay at home while working and that way you will not talk with others face to face and have a chance to die.

You may disagree on numbers, I am 100% certain the numbers in my nation is fake on the reverse side, it is a lot more and yet reported lower, but that is not really important part is it? You may think that the numbers are lower in reality, but the death is real, people die, it is a fact, and you are telling me "let the people die so that economy stays strong"? How could you even consider that?

It depends on what you really want to do. On a normal, when you invest in Bitcoin, it is an investment and you would be making profit as the price of Bitcoin goes up and down, so basically your Bitcoin is already working for you while it is in your wallet. But, if you are not satisfied with that, and you want to go further, then you should be ready to lose your privacy for that. Because, none of those investment platforms that you are going to find will allow you to just invest in their platforms without KYC. And moreover your Bitcoin wouldn’t be in your wallet, rather it would be on that platform or the exchange that you have decided to be investing it in.

The real standing is that they could create a within the whole holding type of stuff and that could work very well. Imagine facebook creating their own token, that means you can use it on facebook, whatsapp and instagram. That is actually quite big area to use a currency in, how many coins are used that wide? There are like maybe 10 of them at the very best case, probably more like 2 or 3.

This is how it could happen, not that it would be used by other companies but if a place like google or facebook or apple or anything else creates their own token then they could make you use it, as an alternative of course, you can still use dollars, but you could use their tokens as well. That is the most important part and that is what I believe should be the case whenever they create a new coin as a company. It is not the perfect version, but not terrible neither.
