I have a few hundreds USD is till trapped in celcius and i do know if i will never get back my money caused by celcius was just a bunch of scammers. Its CEO already resigned from the company which gives a signal if celcius was a scam. I think that will be good if you are also reading the new documents about bankruptcy published by celcius recently. https://cases.stretto.com/public/x191/11749/PLEADINGS/1174910012280000000032.pdf

We will never get back our money.  Cheesy
Is it possible to resign on your own company? Lol. He can just say that he abandon the project already. I don't know if what is that celsius you guys are talking about but based on the comments above it seems like it's a defi platform? We all know defi's are very risky and yet you confidently invest huge money on them.

It's always important to secure most of our profits in a wallet where have a full control and left only some funds to see if it will grow again if not and it turned into a scam later on, our regrets won't be that much. Checking the updates more often about the platform that we are using is also a must and if you feel something shady, you shouldn't hesitate to pull out most of your funds immediately.

I am certain that there are many fans for Test cricket in Australia and England as @JSRAW stated. Then there is the subcontinent where fans of T20 is growing because of the premium leagues. The boards and ICC should come up with such a format for test cricket. Only playing ICC matches won't help this format. As I stated earlier there are many who follow this format in their own ways.
I don't know how many fans in Australia who likes test cricket, but there are a lot of Test fans in England. Especially in England, when the county games start, a large number of spectators come to watch the game. It is clear that Test cricket has the existence and will continue. But the picture is completely different in the Indian subcontinent.
Right now, Australia and England still are heaven for test format and there is no chance they are going to be had any negative view about this format because these two countries having rich history and these are the father and mother of this format as well which is surely a great feeling for them and their fans even things are changing very quickly in many other countries, but they are still at their best and good love affair which is going to be existed for long time.

Many other countries are badly suffer due to economic issues and have not enough structure for this format which give them quality players for this format as well specially we have West Indies and South Africa most effected countries with Zimbabwe are already suspended and Afghanistan and Ireland which have new test caps are still looking for positive change which is not possible with current situation.
1883  Economy / Speculation / Re: Cryptocurrency is silent why? on: October 03, 2022, 06:53:32 AM
cryptocurrencies are not completely silent, because news about the adoption of cryptocurrencies is currently still low, so it is natural to be quiet,
news is also dominated by bad news such as war and world economic inflation, of course this also has a bad impact on cryptocurrencies this year,
maybe in 2023 it will still be the same, it's just that we might be a little surprised.
The adoption is slow right now because the price is also low. We know newbies make sure first that crypto is not dying so they will wait for a better signal and that is when the price rally again. It's fine, there is no need to rush because the adoption rate of btc is already high. It's just that we are in a bear market, that is why we can't feel its presence. Aside from adoption news there's that news from war and inflation but I think the effects of the inflation is now getting lower.

The news about Ukraine and Russian war is also not that active, so maybe these two countries are trying to settle down but unfortunately, the tension between China and Taiwan is building up. Maybe they are going to be the next in this list.
1884  Economy / Gambling / Re: The Biggest Wins with lowest risks in Casino History on: October 02, 2022, 08:22:01 PM
Such huge winnings with minimal investment in the casino are quite rare, so everyone knows about them, many bet small amounts in online casinos in the hope of getting a luck slot with a seven-digit figure or more, so I think these are unique examples of luck, but they are also motivating factors for many gamblers.
indeed, basically playing gambling is betting on luck, and as the OP mentioned are some people who are lucky when they bet with a small minimum and win with big profits.
actually not for motivation, but as an example of confidence when gambling one day will definitely find a big win luck. even if you have to lose more money first
I think that confidence and motivation are somehow linked to each other. If you are not confident you won't feel like playing a gambling because in your head you will say that you will still lose so it would be better if you can just save that money or use that money in more valuable things. The same goes to motivation.

Those who continue despite of their previous losses are either playing for fun or they are simply motivated/confident that they can recover all their past losses once they win a really huge amount in gambling. It can be though jackpots or they will hunt a massive multiplier or they can build their balance from the bottom to the top slowly but surely.

What will the likes of the new currency and system be? consider if it's not cryptocurrency then it's not going to attract more anticipated audience because as at moment, bitcoin is the only trending digital currency on the internet and that is the center of attraction on the world's attention, any currency that will not give decentralization a chance to come into reality then it's as worthy of nothing than a modern CBDC we all have been avoiding as against bitcoin.
Maybe the likes of this new currency and its system is slightly different from the previous versions for it to be considered the dollar killer. We are not sure yet if this was CBDC the ones they are talking about but even if it's not related to cryptos, it is still going to attract more audience. They are in fact more confident about it than the cryptos.

It seems like you praised bitcoin too much there. BTC isn't actually the only trending digital currency. Like I said earlier, there are now CBDC's which is also gaining a popularity right now. This isn't going to be the last but I am sure they will invent more currencies in the future to possibly beat the other.
1886  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will you change your mind on gambling ? on: October 02, 2022, 03:01:01 PM
The harsh reality is clear:

If the goddamn government of your country makes gambling illegal, then you have no choice, you will have to stop gambling, you cannot risk committing a crime. imagine being caught playing (although it is something very difficult to happen, but there is still the possibility of being caught by the government) and you sentenced to years in prison? you who at that moment were betting 50$ to have fun in the gamble, the government of your country catches you and condemns you to 5 years in prison, man see, being imprisoned for 5 years in prison because of 50$ is something that in In my opinion, it's not even worth taking the risk. Therefore: if a government makes gambling illegal then stop playing immediately, respect and comply with the laws, even if they are laws made by people without brains and that are only intended to be dictatorship laws, we have to respect the laws
I don't think they will make gambling illegal for no reason but maybe they did that because gambling on that country is now very rampant and they saw that many people are now getting addicted and destroying their lives. Same with what the effect of drugs are doing, this is why there are countries where the use of it is also illegal because they link it to the increasing rates of crimes.

Don't say that it's difficult for them to catch gambling offenders. You don't know what a government can do. They do have the budget to make things possible, so if I were you I better obey them than suffering most of your time inside the jail. There are still ways to have fun which doesn't have any risk.
1887  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Eredivisie 22/23 - discussion thread on: October 01, 2022, 06:43:44 PM
Even Ajax and PSV both are going to be tough challengers for title, but we can expect good fight from others and Feyenoord, Twente are also doing good as they are also looking for place in UEFA competitions for next season look like all three teams are going to win in tomorrow matches after break as opponents are not good enough.
Every season in the Eredivise league we see the dominance of Ajax and PSV. These two teams are at the top of the table with 18 points this season as well. However, Feyenoord started the season quite well. They would have been at the top of the points table if they had not lost the last match and lost the points. Winning the title won't be easy for PSV or Ajax. Alkmaar and Feyenoord are playing well this season.
PSV faced second defeat of this season as they lost second consecutive away match and have thumbing lost against Cambuur with this defeat now they can drop to fourth because Ajax is already at the top and AZ Alkmaar and Feyenoord both have good chance for taking over from their current position with this now things could be more interesting because PSV is now feeling heat even this is just eight round but with this big defeat their defence is exposed, and now they need to work on this if they want to stay at the top with this season is having good challenges for both giants in this Dutch League.

Ajax is surely now having good chance for taking lead even It's too early but with this second defeat of PSV Dutch League is going to be wide open for few other teams, and they can develop their quality if they want to be in touch for title race which is surely possible.
1888  Economy / Economics / Re: Business failure among small-scale entrepreneurs on: October 01, 2022, 05:29:03 PM
Just wow for this post! I am very much impressed because there are some facts which are actually making the failures amongst startups. I have heard/read almost all of the examples given in the OP and yes I have seen them failing. OLX is closely related to me as I have used it multiple times. The website is working till date but it's presence is next to zero. It's like surviving on it's final breaths these days. However one thing is sure, there are bigger players in the market as compared to them with bigger budget to spend on management and marketing etc. It's beautifully written article and every startup must note down them to save themselves from failing.
Indeed that OLX is still breathing and it's also true that they lack of marketing because I didn't see them appear in the ads online other than those recent companies whose concepts are also similar to theirs (buying and selling). I think that is a sign that their company's budget is getting low but did you know that OLX is one of the biggest buy and sell site before? I remember they are being advertised left and right and they even have advertising on the local television. That's how successful they are but unfortunately, they ended up on this.

It's not that the saying is true that all good things has an end because there are also old companies which are still at the top up until today. Maybe they only got carried away of their fame and then they start doing things which are inappropriate. This is a common mistake of those who experience a success.
1889  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: October 01, 2022, 09:41:39 AM
Who do you favor in derby from tomorrow between Inter vs Roma ? Odds are in favor of Inter but I have a feeling that Mourinho and his team will be able to snatch at least 1 point from tomorrow game. Also , before this game , Roma is in front of Inter in Serie A so both teams kinda needs points as none of them are doing great in the last 3 games. Grin
A difficult match, I personally favor Roma but Inter can't be taken lightly. Inter chances of winning are higher because they are unbeaten in the last 10 matches against Roma, it could be that they will share the points but it could be that Roma win, because Inter performance earlier this season also doesn't look good as last season, meanwhile Roma performance has improved.
Inter Milan's players in the last 3 matches did not appear to be playing optimally. they play below the standard of their abilities. even 3 defeats, namely from Lazio, AC Milan and finally had to lose a lot from Udinese. I think that what Inter should focus on and improve is the defensive line. But Roma looks to improve in the performance of the game. so I support Roma in the match later. Although my prediction is more of a draw. But Roma looks to be getting better this time.
Inter performance is surely on decline, and they are doing awful in away games with loses are bringing down their confidence which is going to have big impact on them for their hopes to be in top four teams until end of this season now they are going to host AS Roma which is also having some issues but still their performance is much better than Inter, and they are improving after every match now in this coming match as mostly peoples feeling AS Roma can go through into win, but this break is surely going to have some good for inter, and they also can fight back with good fight and win against visitors because their performance at home matches are very good, and they can hold them as well.

With the performance and quality which are coming from both teams in last few matches I am feeling this is going to be interesting match and Inter can win with this right now, mostly bookmakers are offering odd @2 which is also very good right now.
1890  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: October 01, 2022, 08:38:20 AM
Despite having good preparations but Frankfurt's strength still can't beat the power of Union Berlin who may be more prepared than frankfurt, hopefully they can get a win to add points in the standings, tomorrow the match will start and many other football clubs will compete as well.
In this case I also expect the same because I am also at Union Berlin for now at odds which are obviously very tempting.
But still Union must be careful with Frankfurt counterattack. They are always unpredictable especially when implementing a defensive strategy.
Union still has to be extra in this case because in terms of attack I'm still pretty sure with Union but sometimes there are always some mistakes when they receive a Counter attack and this must be corrected immediately so that everything goes as desired.
Surely this is going to be tested game for these both teams are Union Berlin is going to be tough challenger for Frankfurt at their home but their ability to give unpredictable results is also amazing, and it's not going to be easy game for league leaders which are looking for widening gape of points between themselves and Bayern Munich which is now also having good start after international break.
 
Frankfurt at home in last three games won one and shockingly lost against Wolfsburg and held for draw by FC Koln but won a big margin against Leipzig which is surely good result but now as they are going to be facing tough challenger and having good record against them, it's going to be good interesting match.

I have feeling we can expect draw as well because this is also going to be acceptable for leaders but most chances things are not easy for both teams so many goals can score by both.

Heard Bumrah is out of the world cup - either Shami/ Siraj would be replacment for Bumrah
On the other hand Bumrah never skipped an IPL - he played well without any injury - very strange news. After Kholi it is tough time for Bumrah
Money factor surely having his impact, and I am feeling it's a good point which are you highlighting, but one thing is sure no one from BCCI give statement like this because they all are involved in these dirty games which are now going around Indian cricket because I also read about this all few years back with few others players were also doing tricks like these and now same going here he never skips any IPL with injury and now out of the World Cup with Ravindra Jadeja is already out with this now Indian pace is surely going to miss these two experienced players and no doubt a big below for their chances of having title this year.

Most chances Mohammad Shami will be replacement of Juspirat Bumrah because he is also well experienced player and understand conditions in Australia.

If Pogba cannot contribute optimally when on the field then this will be a nightmare for Juventus because they have already paid a lot and have already relied on Pogba to get the win
Juventus signed Pogba for free from Manchester United, so in this case Juventus are not experiencing financial losses, I think Pogba arrival can actually strengthen the Juventus midfield but unfortunately the injury that Pogba got made him absent, but I think if Pogba later recovering maybe we will see Pogba again good appearing and being an important pillar for Juventus like the 2012/16 season, now Pogba is recovering from an injury so it is too early to judge if Juventus take the wrong step to bring Pogba back to Turin.
In this season Juventus were expected in good shape as they have few good players and there were most chances they could be at top of the league table with good difference in quality but sadly due to injuries currently they are struggling badly and now waiting for few players to join them for having better results and right now media is circulating news about Paul Pogba which is not good because if he tries to join his team early then surely this could be more damaging for him and his team because his leg need more rest, and he needs to follow things which give him better results in long run.

Juventus can do some better without him as their few other players are also going to join them with recovery but taking risk with him is surely not good idea because if they are able to take some more time then surely it's going to be good idea for these both parties.
1893  Economy / Economics / Re: How to be more effective working remotely. on: September 29, 2022, 07:48:50 PM
After a long COVID-19 pandemic, I began to learn that working at home was much more effective and fun. At first I was uncomfortable being at home too long, turns out I started to understand that by working at home I don't have to pay for transportation. Another positive thing that I get after working from home, I can save my time, because I don't have to travel to the office. I can also save money on food costs, usually if I work in the office I always spend money to buy lunch. Now by working from home, I can eat lunch from food cooked by my partner. I also work at home can be more productive, because as you said, not only do I get income from my main job, but I can do side jobs too. Although in my country activities have returned to normal, but because I am too comfortable working at home. I resigned from my previous job and focused more on finding work that could be done from home.
There are a million reasons why working from home is better, of course it does have some troubles but that doesn't change the fact that we are talking about being at home and that is always better. I have to believe that we should be working toward something that is a lot more at ease for each other and working at home is a lot better version of working from office, it just doesn't mean that we do not have to work from home but we need to also save a lot of money that way as well.

I personally worked from home before pandemic and I have worked ever since as well, for the past 7 years or so and I cannot say that it would be any easier to go to office from now on, I would have a lot of trouble.

really, i always try it but for me, it's very hard to get the challenge complete.i even try more than 200 spins but i only get less than the requirement.
only dice, bj, and keno challenge that i can easily complete
You mean for this game Tome of Life? maybe you're just unlucky but have you tried playing with 1 line?
I often play with 1 line and to get x100 there is no need to wait for  bonus round I can hit it on regular spin but of course it takes a long time.
Well, when you have something that is 1 out of 100 chance to hit, it will take a while before you can hit it. I remember playing plinko and I arranged it in a way where I wouldn't win too much too quickly, it was either win big or not win much type of deal, mostly zeros, and in the end I ended up with something much bigger, much better time to time but the overall was low because I did it rarely.

That's why it's not always about how big of a win that you would get, it's about sustainable gambling and winning commonly means that you would be able to wager a lot longer and your VIP level would go up and you would earn something from that as well as the bonus you would get back.
1895  Economy / Economics / Re: Savings during inflation on: September 29, 2022, 06:19:53 AM
Savings during inflation is a bad idea because take a look at this situation:
The 2020 year - I have $1000 in a hidden place at my house - inflation is 10%
The 2021 year - The purchasing power of my 2020s $1000 is $900 right now. I lost $100 out of thin air. Imagine, you didn't buy thing X to save $100 and keep our $1000 but the inflation takes that $100 out of your pocket.

That's why you need to either become a professional in a job with the best job security or always chase to create at least a small business like a restaurant or cafe or food shop that will bring you some profit.
Your given example can work in different way. Imagine you did not hide that thousand, but have bought something. In 2021 your loss will be $1000 in fiat, but you will have an item, that is already used and cant be sold for $1000 on aftermarket and depreciation has decreased its value. What is better in that case? $900 or "thing X" that does not cost $1000 ?

P.S. Do you know that small business will bring first profit after a long period of working with losses? Small business will be first to die during high inflation, because it cant compete with huge store and restaurant chain.
The thing you bought for 1000 ends up being 1100 next year after 10% inflation, which means you saved money but the question is will you be able to convince yourself that you wouldn't make more than that if you kept it? If you were going to spend on something else, or just keep it hidden in your house then it is better to buy that equipment, but if you want to buy bitcoin and hope that you could profit then you could turn your 1000 into 1500 dollars and spend that 1100 instead of 1000, and still have 400 left. That's the question people's minds.

Recently I purchased a PC and in my nation PC taxes are 100%, so I probably bought it by paying more than any of you, but it was a good deal because I am 100% sure that the price would go up a lot more than what I paid for it in a few months let alone a year.
1896  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: September 28, 2022, 09:19:00 PM
Bayern Munich will not let Leverkusen take home points from the Allianz arena, after swallowing the bitter pill from Augsburg in week 7, Bayern Munich will try to bounce back by beating Leverkusen to improve the mentality of players in the next match. Looking at Leverkusen's statistics in the Bundesliga this season, it is very difficult for them to beat Bayern Munich. Leverkusen have dropped a lot of points since the season started, they haven't been able to maintain the form last season. With the performance that the Leverkusen players have shown in the previous few matches, it is impossible for them to get points at the Allianz Arena.
I would say that too. But based on the current performance of both teams I do not see a clear winner. For Bayer Leverkusen, such a (struggling) big opponent can come just at the right time. They know that it would not be bad to lose against Bayern Munich. So they can play with a clear mind and if they believe in themselves they can win against Bayern Munich.

But in any case a win is important for both teams.
I understand that Leverkusen would be trying to take advantage of the situation because they are trying to win something big in order to make themselves feel better. If they can beat Bayern that would give them a courage to beat anyone because if you can beat Bayern then it is logical to think that you could also win against anyone else.

But, let's be honest each other and realize that we are not going to end up with anything else than a Bayern win in this game it is quite easy to see. I get that not everyone would see it that way but it would be simple game for Bayern and would be a dominating game for sure with a very easy result in the end.

The last 2 friendly matches of Indonesian National team against Curacao gives me a hope that Indonesia can do something in the Asian Cup. Hopefully  they will be more improved in the remaining time before the event start, improved both in teamwork as well as in individual quality. As a non favorite team, Indonesia should be able to play "nothing to lose". Wish the best for my own country National Team.
Usually in a tournament, the team that is not in the favorite often makes a surprise.
Against Curacao in a FIFA friendly, Indonesia performed well. The Indonesian team has undergone many changes, such as teamwork to the style of play that has also begun to be interesting to watch.

Facing the top teams in the Asian Cup later, will be a serious challenge for Shin Tae-yong. This former South Korean coach must focus on the physicality of every Indonesian player because that is where the weakness I see is.
Currently, in Asia we have two nations which are heavily investing for bringing good results and development: India and Indonesia which is good sign because both are well populated countries, and they can bring good changes with this investment club's and structure can give them good future in long run specially India is with their current image of Incredible India doing amazing job even it's not easy for these both countries because of conditions and with India is surely cricketing crazy country, but now it's time for having positive development beyond this all.

2026 is also big chance for these countries to have their chances in top 48 countries and bring more fans base which is surely a guaranteed for good investments and more development in this game right now main problem is bringing this game from grass root which will give better results because players from school level could be more skilled and have better chance for performing at the top level.

Is it possible and legal to open an online casino without a license?
I have heard that a license only allows to put users in confidence
What do you think about this?
It is possible for one to open up a casino without a license and I think it can be considered as legal not unlike to some serious business outside that if you don't have a license your business will be tagged as illegal and you will be in great danger once some inspect you.

For some users, it might be true that it gains them a confidence while for the rest, they prefer casinos with no license because a no license casino usually don't come up with a KYC requirements. I think there are licensed casinos on the past who still turned into a scam later on, and there are no license casino who continues to stay's legit so being trustworthy it's not about the licenses.
1899  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Keep or sell ethereum before the merge? on: September 27, 2022, 09:18:04 PM
The merger has been completed no major changes have occurred in the price. Better to hold on to it now, ethereum still has good potential for the future and now they are using POS it feels better than ever even gas costs have started to drop this proves that ethereum cares enough about its community.
I don't think gas cost has something to do with the merge. Even before the event, gas fee were already cheap since eth network is not congested anymore. Also the hype of NFTs was gone which is a big contributing factor why gas fee reached to more than 100$ last year.

If it was me, I would sell half of my ETH assets now because there is a high chance that bitcoin will drop more in the coming months which will cause other altcoins to also decline.
It's about being ready, maybe it's not that high anymore, but now we know hopefully it won't be high ever. There is no guarantee of course, if there is a congestion again and there is a more than expected attention towards it and the demand goes through the roof, then maybe we will have expensive gas fee again, but at least we know for bare minimum that we are doing better than we did, and that's a good thing. That's why it should be higher in price right now as well because it allows people to use it cheaper.

But, do you know why it won't be? Because people spend a lot on ETH gas fee, and that meant buying more ETH to spend on gas fee, and now they won't have to.

As times are changing, people are also changing their perspectives in life.
However, much better if you keep it to yourself if you are a regular gambler.
If you are a professional, some people are looking up to you and they may see it as negative especially if they don't know why you are into gambling.
But if you are just betting in few occasions only like if you bet if your favorite boxer has his fight or your football team is in the arena.
I believe it is fine but in my opinion, it is still in your best interest to keep your gambling activities private even if it doesn't affect your real job.
When people see you gambling, they can then assume that you have a problem and you are using gambling as an escape room. They think the problems that you experience will affect your career so they will be less confident about the service that you are offering but how can you say that sports betting are fine? What about casino games? I think they are still the same.

It only becomes bad if you are over betting and if you are addicted on the game already but yeah if I am one of those professionals, I will only gamble on the comfort of my own home, not because I am avoiding criticism but because I am more relaxed and focused there.
