1821  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will the price of BTC ever hit $40k again? on: August 17, 2022, 04:00:37 PM
I observed several changes in the price  within a few months. With these changes, I wish to ask do you think the price of Bitcoin will ever hit $40k again?
I'm just being curious as a new trader.

Take a look at the previous charts of bitcoin, bitcoin fell and rose afterward, and it will hit a new ATH. It's a cycle that always repeats itself. The only thing that we cannot predict exactly is when it will happen, we can only be sure that it will happen in the future.

If you are a trader and you are waiting for bitcoin to hit $40k again then you should buy and hold bitcoin for yourself at this point. It is the best time to buy if your target is 40k$ then you will receive a twofold return. Invest and hold, and bitcoin will come and pick you up.

England VS South Africa
The first test match between these two teams starts today. The new English test side has been in form lately, it would be interesting to see the outcome of this test match. South Africa is already the top team in the Test world cup points table. Will they be able to hold on to the top ranking will be interesting to watch.
South Africa is in good form and they are on top of the WTC points table. But at the same time, they have played only 7 matches (against 12 played by India and 16 by England). So it is a bit early to say whether they will remain there for long. Facing England on their backyard is always going to be a tough challenge. Even more so, if the main bowlers (Rabada and Nortje) are out of form. South Africa is also dealing with injury issues. Duanne Olivier has pulled out while Kagiso Rabada is doubtful due to ankle issue.

Test cricket is not like the shorter formats of cricket. Because players will need actual skills to turn a match on its head. But when both teams possess the necessary skills, it is quite easy for both teams to change the outcome in a matter of one session. And I believe both England and South Africa do possess that type of skill. But in test matches, I will keep England ahead while facing South Africa even though South Africa is in good form right now. And I hope that South Africa will be able to bring in the most talented team because they will be playing in England. And the injury news right now is certainly not favorable.

It is a perfect start for Napoli. After losing some important players in the squad I was having some doubts about them but they proved me wrong by this wonderful result. It isn't easy to win by a score like 5-2 against an annoying team like Verona normally. This was like an answer to Roma I think because I believe that we will watch a really great competition between these two teams throughout the season.
That score was a surprise for me honestly! I didn't expect them to get 5 goals! I even hesitate they could take 3 points vs Verona, which as you said is an annoying team that can make the top teams lose points against them!
Funny enough, that was the hardest match for this round and ended up having the highest scoring.
Meanwhile, Roma just scored a single goal vs Salernitana which was hovering around the relegation zone in the previous season.. Not the best start for them tho.
Juve 0-0 Sassuolo after 18 minutes. Di Maria and Vlahovic are in.

It was just a very dominating performance from Napoli. and I agree that I also did not expect them to score so many goals. Napoli Came into the match with a positive mindset and even though Napoli is the one considered Better in this match, I don't think anyone ever expected them to score 5 goals in one match. Roma has played well to ensure the victory.

Juventus vs Sassuolo has ended and Juventus own by 3-0 this match. Juventus played really well, they scored two goals in the 1st half, and in the 2nd half, they just defended.
1824  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA 2022 world cup on: August 15, 2022, 06:59:35 PM
my list of champions, brazil, portugal and germany (who knows which one will win later but these 3 teams are my favorites)
but this is only a temporary prediction from me, because it hasn't started yet it's still difficult to predict but everyone has a superior team right?
Indeed brazil, germany & portugal are included in the prediction category in the upcoming world cup, we all know 32 countries will be competing fiercely in the prestigious football tournament in Qatar starting next November, Neymar is a hot topic in the brazil team and a hope for football bettors, germany is also a great adventure in the world cup, as well as their Portuguese mainstay Cristiano Ronaldo, for sure all teams have their own moments to win the world cup in Qatar.
However, for the world cup in Qatar this time, I tend to believe more that France will bring home the golden ball in Qatar, they are the best team and have the strength to compete in the tournament in Qatar, they have the best players like Paul, Kylian, Karim, Kante, Antoine and many others, all that can be seen in the European leagues.

Right now, Neymar is playing very well and he is in great form. In my opinion, this is a very good sign for Brazil's squad when it comes to the upcoming world cup. It is going to be a challenge for Brazil to have any chance of winning the world cup if they are not able to get the help of every single player who will be competing in the tournament. According to my personal opinion, there are probably better teams than Brazil going into this World Cup, but this is the World Cup after all, and anything can happen. The chances of France successfully defending their title are still very high in my opinion.
1825  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: August 15, 2022, 06:03:14 PM
PSG had another wonderful week this time against Montpellier. In this 5-2 victory, Messi wasn't much effective this time but it's not a problem at all. Mbappe and Neymar showed great performances and finished off their opponent. As we all know PSG well the Ligue 1 is very easy for them. They are just improving their morale by results like this day by day. It is like a preparation phase for the Champions League.

I am going to say that Neymar performed really well in that match. Mbappe could not convert a penalty kick. And a few minutes after that Neymar got another chance from the penalty spot and he delivered. Neymar also scored a beautiful heading goal. I have to say unless it was for the goalkeeper of Montpellier, PSG could have scored a lot more goals in this match. But I think the first one gole could have been avoided if he didn't even touch the ball. This is nothing surprising because PSG is obviously going to win the league again and going to you suck in in the Champions League.

It was nice to see Roma winning their first game of the season. Salernitana weren't a team that could have made big difficulties for them normally so this 1-0 victory was not enough actually. But they really have a nice potential for this season. The chemistry of the team would increase more in time and we would see them performing better in time. The main goal is to enter top 4 this time.

It might not appear from the scoreboard but Roma actually dominated in that match. The problem is they missed a lot of chances to go ahead on the scoreboard. Zaniolo missed a lot of chances and Paulo Dybala hit the goal post a couple of times I think. So I don't think they will have any problems in the future on the attacking side. But what we didn't get to see was how good Roma would be when it comes to defending against bigger opponents. I believe they will have a hard time defending. It would have been nice to see Paulo Dybala score but I am sure it is not going to take long. I am also quite sure and I agree that they will be finishing in the top four this season.

the 'guardian' reports that west ham united are in "positive negotiations" and are confident of signing german international Thilo Kehrer despite competition from fc sevilla. french champions psg are said to be demanding a transfer fee of €19 million
the hammers have lost their first two games in the premier league and are still looking for reinforcements in the defensive section

It is my understanding that they have offered £16 million for this player. Moreover, I have also heard that the negotiations with both the player and the club seem to be on positive terms at the moment. It is clear that West Ham United is really trying to get this player on board with the team. The fact is that they know they will not be able to accomplish much if they continue to rely on their current lineup. Moreover, they are aware of the fact that they will need to strengthen the defensive lineup of West Ham United. Starting with a losing streak is never good for any club. So they have understandably gone to the transfer market To make the defensive line stronger.
1828  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will BTC make a new high in 2022? If not then what will be peak point? on: August 13, 2022, 08:54:21 AM
Sorry to say that your expectation is too high at this moment. Although everything is possible but in my humble opinion, I don't see Bitcoin reaching that high this year. We should be reminded that market is just having some relieved after the crashed. I think $30k+ should be appreciable at least for the rest of the year.

Bitcoin price prediction is an impossibility, I know anything is possible but with a $50k prediction for the year-end target, it's really too high a target to achieve. I still think we will see another big drop and maybe it will happen by the end of the year and early 2023, when bitcoin really bottoms out. I don't dare think there will be a bull run this year, everything from the world economy and war, I couldn't be more optimistic.
1829  Economy / Speculation / Re: Best time for me to buy on: August 12, 2022, 03:27:12 PM
As at the time this thread was created Bitcoin price and the orice of most coins in the market then was on a bull run with price around 50 to 40k which was not a good price to buy, but at the moment Bitcoin is still below the 25k level which make it the best time to buy since the bull market is about to begin.
Bull market will indeed exist again, but I don't think it will happen anytime soon because of the Bitcoin price movement in the last month and this month I see it is still above $20K and below $25K. So I doubt that the Bull market will start soon because for me there is no sign for the Bull market at this time or in the near future. So buy Bitcoin now before it's too late or before the next bull happens
Everyone who works with cryptocurrency wants to collect in bitcoin. Due to its high cost, many people cannot afford it. But many look for the bear market that is now on going. I would say who want to buy bitcoin just for long term there is no alternative. Current price of bitcoin $23,751 which is worthy to buy. As the price rise and fall between $22000 to 24000 We should wait for some times for the next movement. If you are determine for long term then there is no risk to invest.


A lot of people have been buying bitcoin at $40k-$50k previously because of their belief that bitcoin will bounce back and hit a new all-time high soon. Then there is no reason for us to be afraid to hold bitcoin at the current price, which is almost 50% lower than what the OP mentioned. If you buy from now, when bitcoin recovers back to $50k OP will be able to break even while your assets have increased x2.
1830  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 5 truths about bitcoin, in my opinion? on: August 12, 2022, 03:18:38 PM
1. Bitcoin will probably make a lot of people rich especially for long term holders... again
Become rich or not, we cannot be sure because to become rich we need a lot of money to invest in bitcoin or those who accept adoption very early. But one thing is for sure, bitcoin will make everyone's economy a lot better if they invest and hold bitcoin.
 
3. Bitcoin can save the world

I don't understand what you mean here, how can bitcoin save the world? Bitcoin is a currency, a profitable investment tool, so it can only make people rich as you mentioned (1). But it can't save the world.

There is nothing wrong with what you do, and everything you do is honorable and commendable, however, there is a small problem in that you are using a centralized exchange wallet and it is still not your property.

It is better if you switch to a personal wallet and you are the keeper of your own keys, then they are your property. Once again congrats on your business and hope you will have more customers paying in bitcoin.
1832  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: August 12, 2022, 09:04:59 AM
Yes, last season was not so tight competition in La Liga.  Real Madrid can be said to be easy in the race for the throne.  Almost all teams in La Liga play not so consistently.  But for next season, Real Madrid must be wary of the rise of its rivals.  Barcelona is predicted to return to being a superior team and seems very ready to challenge for the title from eternal rivals Real Madrid.
I also see Barca have a chance to compete with Madrid. and it will be even more interesting for La Liga fans.
Barca seems very confident for this season with some of their new players. but rivaling Madrid in the domination of La Liga will be quite difficult. Madrid will be very strong for this season. and Barca who are still trying to improve their game with a new squad.

Barcelona has added a lot of talented players to the squad. Undoubtedly, it is expected that they will try their best to win the title next season. And if their players stay in form I believe they can overtake Real Madrid and win the title. But the Real Madrid team is stable. Barcelona will definitely need to continue their consistently good performances if they want to defeat Real Madrid and win the title. Against relatively small teams, full points must be secured.
1833  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: August 12, 2022, 09:00:42 AM
Frankfurt has better statistics even not playing at home, but for sure if they repeat the mistakes like a week ago, they will lose for sure. On the last 4 head-to-head, Frankfurt is better with 3 winnings, the rest is Herta. As we can see before, the Frankfurt defender is playing well until minute 30, but after conceding, the defender seems undisciplined until received the 2nd goal from real. So what the focus next is defense, if negligent they might be lost.
What ever with better statistics have by Frankfurt I think they have got twice losing against with Bayern Munich on Bundesliga at first match and few days later defeated by Real Madrid on UEFA Super Cup. I think become warning for Frankfurt after get twice loss, they need wake up when away match against with Hertha Berlin. I think will be important match for both team between Hertha Berlin and Frankfurt because they have loss points on first match where Hertha Berlin defeated by Union Berlin on first Bundesliga match, looks Hertha get support with home match and I think not wrong favorite Hertha for getting three points on this match.

Frankfurt's performance in the previous season was quite good, but this season they are not playing well. They lost by a huge margin against Bayern Munich. Bayern could not resist the attack. Their performance against Real Madrid was also very poor. But they have a chance to win the next match. Hertha is not a strong team. Frankfurt will have an easy win against Hertha if they keep their defense strong.
1834  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to create a Bsc address on: August 11, 2022, 10:25:09 PM
If you already have an ethereum wallet address then you don't need to create or use another wallet, bsc and eth can use the same seed phrase and same address. If you are using metamask for your eth wallet then you just need to add bsc network then you can use bsc address to get token.

Trust wallet is a noncustodial wallet and developed by Binance. It is also a reliable wallet to use, I find it simpler to use than other wallets on the market, and suitable for storing a variety of assets.
1835  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ETH could take over. on: August 11, 2022, 10:14:08 PM
Second to Bitcoin, but in the altcoin market Ethereum is the king of them. The target let's say in the current hype is $2k, but it doesn't mean that it can overtake Bitcoin. ...

In order for the capitalization of Ethereum to surpass the capitalization of bitcoin, it is necessary that the price of ETH increase by 2 times, but at the same time the value of BTC remains the same. No one doubts that the price of Ethereum will increase by 2 times, but it is impossible to imagine that the price of BTC will remain the same.

The possibility of this happening is almost impossible. Most likely, the ETH merger will help ETH soar, and if the spike is strong enough, it will help ETH x2 but if bitcoin remains the same then I think the upside will soon be stopped and corrected shortly after.

In the absence of a rise in bitcoin, the market has no reason to FOMO and build investor confidence. Bitcoin is still king, we are still looking at the movement of bitcoin for investment so it will be difficult for ETH if it wants to go it alone or wants to take over BTC.
1836  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Universal Seed Phrase on: August 11, 2022, 10:01:13 PM
What I mean is that I import a Bitcoin Seed phrase into an ethereum wallet software and create ethereum addresses based on the Bitcoin seed.
This might not be possible since we are talking about two different network here and there’s no such thing as centralized data because of confidentiality and with Bitcoin, there’s a lot of wallet that you can use. This is a good idea honestly but with regards to security, you might be on a big trouble if you leak this seed phrase because all your wallet will be compromised, this is why I’d rather save more phrase than to get hacked later on.

If this is possible, then in my opinion it will be easier for us to manage assets, since we only need to manage and store a single seed phrase for all assets. But about the security risk as you said, if unfortunately attacked, we will most likely lose all our assets. So you're better off storing different wallets to limit your risk, although keeping different seed phrases can take quite a while, but it's safer. I agree with you option 2.
1837  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: August 11, 2022, 08:12:46 PM
Basically Ronaldo is no longer comfortable at Manchester United, for that reason I personally don't believe Ronaldo will give everything he can to make Manchester United rise. At least there is still time until the end of the month for Ronaldo to leave, because for me it will only be useless if Ronaldo is maintained and played from the early minutes because here Ronaldo doesn't seem to have any targets. So yes, even so, Erik ten Hag must continue to make Ronaldo the main player, because it is not appropriate for Ronaldo to be treated as in that match.
Maybe there will be surprises, such as transfers but I don't know. Ronaldo's age is old, his agent has offered ronaldo services but no club is interested yet. I think staying at Man United is a good option. If he could improve on Man United it would be even better. Rather than them he had to go.
I'm just guessing because barcelona has to throw away its players to register new players. I think the alternative of throwing out to Man United is pretty good. Man united had bid for De Jong but failed. The Spanish league has a player registration deadline, so let's wait.


The last time I checked, Ronaldo actually tried hard to leave Manchester United, but he was rejected by almost 8 teams in the Champions League. It feels like no one wants him on the team anymore, even though he brings a big name to the team and is still doing well considering his age. And talking about age, that is the only reason why teams do not want him. Even if they are able to get this player, they will not be able to work for a long time with this player.

So, basically Cristiano Ronaldo also does not have too many options and the most suitable option right now seems to be for him to stay at Manchester United which obviously he doesn’t wish to do. I just hope that his performance does not drop after all this drama.
1838  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: August 10, 2022, 11:03:45 AM
CPI print, or Consumer Price Index, will be announced later! If it shows that inflation has finally peaked and has started to decrease/slow down, then I believe it's probably YOUR opportunity to buy EVERY DIP, and HODL. There might be actual fudsters in the forum who truly want that Bitcoin will crash more below $20,000 again, but perhaps they just missed their golden opportunity. There might be some DIPs to $21,000 though.

The CPI is only a few hours away, and many expect 8.7% this time, lower than last month. In theory, if the CPI falls as expected, everything should turn out fine. Every stock market, and cryptocurrencies are standing still waiting for CPI to be announced, I hope there will be no surprises. CPI falls but the market won't rise, anything can happen. The market is unpredictable, let's wait and see the results.
1839  Economy / Speculation / Re: I do believe that Bitcoin will be more scarce than gold on: August 10, 2022, 10:50:03 AM
BTC doesn't have to fight gold, does it?
BTC is made to defeat fiat. Gold is something different. You can have both BTC and gold. why force yourself to choose one over another?
Gold is good. It made stunning jewelry.
BTC is good. It pays for my coffee.

Exactly and very simple explanation of the two assets, the analogy is simple.
Gold= jewelry.
Bitcoin= currency+asset.
And that is why just in the few years of Bitcoin's existence, bitcoin has surpassed gold in market volume and price, and Gold which has been around for several decades may have not made so much market impact as Bitcoin and that is because Bitcoin has a dual purpose.
1 bitcoin is an asset.
2 Bitcoin is a currency.
So these factors made Bitcoin different from gold, bitcoin, and gold can co-exist in the same market environment since their not serve the same purpose. Those who are in Bitcoin because of its value and volatile nature take bitcoin as an asset and they hold Bitcoin as an investment just like Gold is an investment also, but while gold is used for the production of jewelry and other precious materials, Bitcoin, on the other hand, is used as a currency.

Gold is also an asset, a more stable asset than bitcoin.
Bitcoin is an investment and can also be used as a currency because the purpose of the satoshi that created bitcoin is to turn it into currency.
But there's really no need to compare them, both are great for investing and storing assets.
Bitcoin cannot be used as jewelry and gold cannot provide greater returns than bitcoin. Each has its own use, cannot be put on the scale to compare.

The situation of Bangladesh team is getting very bad.  As days go by, they are losing their focus on the ball game.  It's all for the president, he's used to corruption everywhere.  If the president of the Bangladesh team is changed, everything will be fine.  But it needs a lot of time.  Bangladesh team will become stronger if the president is changed.

Firstly Bangladesh team was weak in test format. But their performances in T20s and ODIs were quite good. But now Bangladesh is very weak in all three formats. And I agree with you that their board president is responsible for the current situation of the Bangladesh team. He has been the president of BCB for a long time. But Bangladesh team is deteriorating instead of improving.
