At the moment it really looks like that everything is going into Medvedevs direction. He seems extremely fit and now, after he has won the second set also after a very close tiebreak he also has the psychological advantage clearly on his side at the moment. Even now in the third set Medvedev seems to have not much problems at all to win his serve games, while Nadal seems to be under pressure in almost all of his serve games. I think that it is 99% sure now that Medvedev will win the Australian Open this year because i don't think Nadal has the fitness yet to show his absolute top performance level over 5 sets and he would need to do that today to have a chance.

I am a PC gamer for many years now and i really consider gaming to be one of my favorite hobbies. Therefore i was also very interested with all that play-to-earn and metaverse hype that was starting a few months ago and i really thought about the possibility to earn money while doing the thing that i really like to do, which would be a huge win-win situation for me. The sad truth is though, that there are rarely any play-to-earn games out there that really deserve to be called a "game". Most of them are not even running in a real game environment like games usually do. You just have a few NFT's that you can use to simulate fights or breeding or whatever...that is not really a gaming experience.

I still remember the first game of Dortmund vs Leverkusen in this season. Back then Leverkusen was the stronger team in my opinion and Dortmund was pretty lucky that they have won that game with 4-3 in the end because Leverkusen was still ahead 3-2 in the 70th minute. So maybe we can expect such a close and exciting game again. I don't think that you can compare that game to the one vs Freiburg because it is a pretty big surprise that Freiburg is at the top of the table and if they have a bad day like they had in the game vs Dortmund 2 weeks ago they usually have no chance against top teams. So i expect that Leverkusen will be a tougher test for Dortmund.

To be honest i have stopped about caring for airdrops in 99% of the cases. I participated in the first few airdrops of coinmarketcap but to be honest in the end those are just marketing tools to get yourself registered on their exchanges and if i remember correctly then it even is a lottery now too and even if you win you get like 3$ worth of tokens for that so it's not really worth it. "Real" airdrops are barely happening anymore nowadays an airdrop per definition for me is, that you get free coins by only submitting your wallet address. I understand though that this is not feasible anymore because nowadays there are so many airdrop hunters around that would simply create 1000 wallets.

I am also surprised, that Medvedev seems to be that big of a favorite for the bookmakers in this final i mean in the end he is facing Nadal, which is definitely one of the 5 greatest tennis players of all time. I think an important factor for that is his match against shapovalov where it was definitely obvious that he was completely done in the 4th and 5th set physically and only won because shapovalov somehow made so many unforced errors in the 5th set and basically gave Nadal a free win there. If Nadal has a good start into the match and wins the first and maybe even the second set then i think he has a great chance to win it. If medvedev wins the first set then i don't think that Nadal can come back.

I do think that the coin distribution is an important factor. If a small percentage of people is holding most of the coins then this is definitely something that would scare me off from investing into that project at the first glance. You always need to check carefully though or ask in the telegram what those wallets are. I had this with Drip Network for example where i think more than 70% of all the tokens is in just 1 wallet, which would also be a huge no-go at the first glance but if you investigate a little further than you will see that this wallet is not owned by any person but it is the treasury wallet of the whole project where all the interest is being paid out from.

To be honest i would also like it, if Bayern would try to sign Haaland even though i think that Lewandowski is still the better player of those two and even has less injuries than Haaland even though he is 12 years older. The fact remains though that lewandoski is already 33 years old and his contract is still running until the end of next season and i don't think Bayern should extend that contract by another 2 or 3 years. There are always rumors that lewandoski wants to leave Bayern. So if this is true i think it would be best to sell him now after this season when they can still get like 25 million € for him and Haaland would "only" cost 75 millions this summer because of a clause. Bayern could pay that amount of money and still would not have any debts. Real Madrid already has 900 M€ of debts now already and they still want to sign Haaland and Mbappé, which is ridiculous.

It is true, that a bear market grants you the opportunity to make big profits. Now is an opportunity to bring new FIAT, if you have free FIAT available, that you can afford to lose of course, into the market because now is the chance to get big and already established tokens for a pretty nice discount. I still would not buy into ETH or Bitcoin though because they are still very expansive, but other projects might already be tempting. If you are a Fan of a project but did not invest so far because early investors already made a x100 or more with it then a bear market might be a chance to get a good entry point.

For me Real Madrid would be the favorite team in this match-up at least as of now. They are playing a very good season so far and they managed to keep their squad together even though they have 900 Million € of debts.
I find it ridiculous though that they are really thinking about signing Haaland AND Mbappe after this season with that huge amount of debts. I think stuff like that should not be allowed, but that is not really the topic here.
I think though that PSG has definitely the potential to win this match too though. So far they have not really shown that many great performances this year and i would guess that a lot of people are disappointed because of that because they expected that PSG would totally dominate every team now that they have messi. The truth is though that they now have 3 players with Neymar, Messi and Mbappe that are usually doing absolutely nothing for the defense. In very important games this could be different though.

The crypto space has always been around hype. There have always been certain topics that where the total hype for a little then once the first projects of this kind appeared and turned out to be extremely successful both in terms of adoption of the project but also of course in terms of profit for the early investors, then of course a lot of copycats appear that are not really trying to make a great product but are just trying to get a piece of the hype-cake with as little effort as possible. This is of course also true for the metaverse. There are a few projects out there though where i am sure that they are still around in a few years too. If they are still in the main focus of the big public i don't know.

To be honest i also never thought that there were any substance at all to those rumors regarding the retirement of Lewis Hamilton. Just because he is angry and disappointed does not automatically mean that he will never race again. Also i think it is completely normal that someone does not post on social Media during honidays or a break.
The recent statements of officials though have changed my opinion a bit because so far we have no clear contradiction of the rumors by an official team member. We will see.

First of all the profitability for staking is always the same no matter if we are in a bear market or not because you always get a certain APY of your staked coins as reward. For example if you are staking 100 Radix for 1 year and the APY is 10 % then you will have 110 Radix after a year. So you should still let your coins stake in a bear market because otherwise you would simply miss out on free rewards. Of course you shouls not sell the staking rewards during a bear market if you don't have to. Just keep accumulating until the price rises again.

Seems like Haaland has muscular problems again and it is not sure, if he can play in the next games yet because Dortmund has not made a official statement yet regarding that topic. So we don't know yet if Haaland has just some slight pain or if he is really injured again and will miss for a few weeks. I don't really think that small injuries like that would scare off clubs that are interested in signing Haaland for the next season. I mean muscular problems happen a lot and are usually not that big of a problem. Haaland missed some games this year that is true, but it is not like that he had 2 big knee injuries or cruciate ligament ruptures already.

All that Metaverse stuff is just the current hype of the crypto space so it's no wonder that a lot of projects are launching that are claiming to be a metaverse or that they have something to do with the metaverse. In my opinion most of this projects are no real metaverses yet or don't even want to be a real metaverse. Some of them are just play-to-earn games, but not in a virtual reality. For me a metaverse is a game or application that projects the user into a world that runs in parallel to the real world, which means hat a VR device like the occulus rift or the Valve Index is needed for the expierience. Bloktopia and Victoria VR for example aim to be a real metaverse but they still need time to develop.

I don't really think that nadal is the clear favorite in his semifinal against berrettini. I mean he just came back from an injury, we should not forget that. I saw his match against shapovalov and i have to say that nadal Was pretty lucky that he won that match. He was complete exhausted in the last 2 Sets and i think he really can thank shapovalov that he made so many easy and totally unneccesary return errors in the last Set otherwise i am pretty sure that nadal would have lost that match.
If he is able to get a quick 2-0 lead in Sets against berrettini too then i think nadal will win. If not it will be very hard for him.

Ethereum still has the big advantage that they are the first mover in terms of smart contract functionality on the Blockchain. Without that idea all the stuff that is possible within the crypto space like NFT and especially Defi applications would not be possible at all without the inventions of the ethereum team. The problem is that the Defi applications create so much traffic on the eth chain, that the network itself can almost not handle it anymore. I really hope eth 2.0 comes soon and brings down the gas fees to a normal price level again.

I am not a big esports bettor because i am still unsure if everything is 100% legit there, especially in small tournaments where the winner can only get for example 5000$ as prize money. If this is the maximum amount that you can win as the favorite team, you still may be tempted to accept an offer from a person that wants to cheat for a bribe and lose on purpose. I know that is probably not happening but it's still possible in my opinion. If i bet on esports though i bet on Dota 2 games. The reason for that is quite simple, i played this game myself for quite a while and i think it always helps if you understand the topic that you are betting on. If you really know the game you can already get a hint on who is winning during the draft of the heroes.

Well that is a tough question and i would guess that no one has ha definitive answer for that. In general i would say that it is during bear markets or unstable markets in general where the most money can be made. If you manage to buy your favorite altcoins for a discount of 30% to 50% then that is a great opportunity. The big problem is, that no one really knows if we see another downward movement from here on. I still think though that a bear market is a great opportunity to get into projects where you usually would not buy into anymore like Bitcoin itself, Ethereum, Solana, Polkadot, Cosmos all those big projects that already made a x100 or more are now relatively cheap.

I would say most of the people in here that are actively trading cryptos know about the fact that there several other chains out there nowadays and that a lot of tokens are not only available on the ethereum network anymore but also on BSC, polygon, Solana and others. I also try to bridge my erc 20 tokens slowly but surely to the other networks because i am just a small fish and therefore it is just not making sense for me to pay 50$ of eth gas fee if i make a swap that is worth 60$ or so. Still ETH was the first mover of that whole smart contract thing and it really deserves praise for that.

All the points that you have listed totally make sense and should really be followed by everyone that is gambling already or plans to start gambling in the future. All of the points that you have listed though are very well known in the scene already and i would guess that 99% of the gamblers are aware of them. Still it is very hard for some people to really stick to this advice and there are several reasons for this. Some are maybe very prone to develop a gambling addiction pretty quickly while others just don't have the mental strength to really stop when their budget is gone.
