This week we have Bournemouth and Manchester City and all we know about this game is people usually predict that Manchester City can easily beat Bournemouth this week because during all the recent five games they faced Manchester City, they always lost the game and the last time they lost with a 4-0 result and right now Bournemouth is near to the anger zone at 17th place of the table while Manchester City is fighting at top of the table.
As usual, Bournemouth shouldn't be a big problem for Man City to win. But when Man City faced weaker clubs, their games always didn't go well. Sometimes their performance apart from being unbalanced is also easier to penetrate. It's different when the opponent is a big club and has balanced aspects of the quality of the game, then Man City is able to provide more resistance and excel. Even though on paper Man City clearly came out victorious, we don't know what Bournemouth has prepared to make their game even more difficult to penetrate.

The Goddess of Fortune is always on the side of Real Madrid, don't because Liverpool was able to score 2 goals at the start doesn't mean a sign of destruction for Real Madrid. Many say Liverpool fell into the abyss of Ancelotti's trap. Even though we know the difference in strategy between Liverpool and Real Madrid is obvious. It's all but no big deal for the European monarchs to beat The Red on their home turf. I enjoyed the fast game in the second half and proved that Madrid still deserves to be champions. Apart from the controversy between the 2 goalkeepers who committed carelessness, here we already know that the result of 2-5 is not an easy result to just guess.


Ha ha ha I'm happy to see Liverpool fall to their knees, now the second leg will be much more difficult for Klopp.
2024  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: February 21, 2023, 03:07:46 PM
I do agree with it. Potter must be sacked. Potter recently claimed that the main problem was not him but the players itself. It can't even be accepted. Potter has also become the worst coach in the history of premier league. This can't even be accepted. Potter didn't have mentality to coaching chelsea. I vote for zidane, enrique or mourinho to be a new coach for chelsea but not for potter
To go or not to go? Chelsea risks relegation with their consistent poor performance week after week if Potter stays. Alot of fans have said things like "he is not ready for the job," "Chelsea needs a top manager that can salvage the situation," "he is a mid-table manager,". The fans are so impatient, and I understand.
However, they should remember that Arsenal's Arteta faced the same situation at the beginning of his management in Arsenal but look at him now and the team he has built up.
Since the failure that Chelsea received, Graham Potter has received so much criticism from Chelsea fans who are dissatisfied with the results achieved by the blues. Potter was only able to give 1 win for Chelsea and even then at the start of his debut if I'm not mistaken. Dna now doesn't know what makes the Chelsea team keep it while the English Premier League giant clubs improve their performance. Only Chelsea was far behind, this should have been a final warning for Potter not to waste himself at Chelsea.

2026  Economy / Economics / Re: CBDCs & their technical abilities for global transacactions on: February 21, 2023, 10:54:38 AM
I don't know what are plans of governments and central banks for CBDCs and how different CBDCs will be able to connect with each other for transactions in future.

- Will we simple download applications of CBDCs and have our banks on our devices without need to go to central banks and register our accounts there?
I guess they will force their citizens to register accounts, KYC at bank office before are able to use CBDCs on applications.

- How those CBDCs from different nations will be able to connect with each other in dual interactions or global interactions?
In fiat currencies, we have systems like SWIFT, CIPS to connect different central banks.

With CBDCs, what blockchain will they run on?
If each CBDC runs on an unique blockchain, will it be very difficult to use them for global transactions cross countries.

To solve this, will central banks make bridges, CBDC bridges for cross countries, cross central bank transactions by CBDCs?

Cryptocurrency bridges are weak and vulnerable to hacks. Will CBDC bridges be better in security?
The simple answer is to stay in control of your finances digitally.

Apart from that, everything is under control on the track and the rules for how fiat finance works, and your personal data must be recorded properly as a whole KYC for the sake of citizen transparency. You can't just run away with the money, because everything is registered. Full control is what government expects, your money, assets, and all ownership can be easily deactivated.

Relations between countries are built to stabilize each other as well as to compare financial growth statistics. So between data from one country to another country, there will be a connection. If You go from country A to country B then the sophistication of the technology will now display all statuses of a person. That's already a set when you do KYC.

According to my opinion, we should stay away from short term trading altogether if we don't have too much experience in trading. Don't just for a little short-term profit at the expense of greater risk, it's better to keep holding and buying more bitcoins every time we have the budget. There is no need to wait for bitcoin to drop to buy as there is no guarantee that bitcoin will fall, and as long as bitcoin has not broken past the old ATH, it is still a good price to buy bitcoin in the long term.
If you trade with minimal capital and then decide to trade short term there will be no guarantee of satisfactory results. Let alone choosing Bitcoin as an option, I personally would not do it except for the long term where the benefits will be more pronounced.

Some people may be good at scalping and indeed their skills are quite capable. But again in long term trading, Bitcoin remains the preferred choice even for experienced traders.

But their performance has improved a bit after being in the UCL, they played well against their opponents. Manchester City will try to achieve success this season, I know it's not easy for Guardiola, the player material currently owned makes Manchester City still in the ranks of the favorite team.

Manchester City's next match is against Leipzig. Leipzig is a relatively weaker team compared to Manchester City. So the possibility of Leipzig being eliminated in the round of 16 is very low. Moreover, Manchester City is in very good form right now. I would say Manchester City, Bayern Munich, and Real Madrid will be the favorites to win this season's Champions League.
Even in the Champions League, a club like Leipzig will feel motivated if the opponent is a strong club. However, it seems that Leipzig will not be easily beaten, they in the Bundesliga were able to draw Bayern Munich game so this will be quite interesting because Leipzig is not a weak club. Make no mistake that Man City may underestimate Leipzig, but we will see slightly different results this time in the Champions League.

And one more thing, in the Champions League for the 2021 season, they were able to beat Man City with a score of 2-1 in Group A phase.
2029  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: February 20, 2023, 08:20:43 AM
I think that anyone shall take what happened with manchester city, city can even goes very close to the arsenal in a short time. As long as MU still maintains to perform so well in EPL and im sure that MU has probability to compete for EPL this season.
We didn't know what kind of surprise that will come at the end of season. Arsenal may also able to get another bad result like the previous matches once arsenal lose the match a few times.
That will give MU and city huge opportunity to compete for EPL. MU is still potentially to win EPL even though the club was just having small chance right now. At least MU under ten hag is always performing so well.
The 3 big clubs that are currently in their best performance in my opinion Arsenal, Man City or Man United both deserve to be one of the Premier League champions. Because this season is quite difficult for me to choose, plus Arteta's competitive rivalry, Pep Guardiola and Erik Ten Hag clearly make his squad considered a team to be feared at the moment. The three of them will continue to make the opponents they face in the eyes of Man City, Arsenal or Man United considered a stepping stone that will not be allowed to go unpunished.
2030  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: February 19, 2023, 11:45:28 AM
Chelsea's defeat is a disappointing result and it’s a shame that with the recent big money signings the team is still losing matches. This should be the fourth game in a row that Chelsea under Graham Potter has recorded 2 draws and 2 defeats which is so bad for the team and not encouraging. I think the end is near for Potter as Chelsea manager.
This result has proven that Chelsea's expensive players are absolutely nothing. Since the purchase until now, Chelsea has been experiencing setbacks. Successive defeats followed and were unable to keep up with Southampton's game. Graham Potter's hopes were far from expectations when he arrived because after all Potter was the key to whether or not Chelsea failed this season. Their opponents are getting stronger and next against Tottenham with their current condition should be put to good use by Kane and friends.
2031  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season on: February 19, 2023, 10:51:37 AM
Firstly I can't trust Liverpool's performance this season. Liverpool is now a team in disarray. Compared to them, the Real Madrid team is much more stable. Ancelotti is also a very experienced coach. He knows very well what strategy is required to play on a platform like the Champions League. And so whatever the odds in this match, I'll bet Real Madrid to win. I believe Madrid will not make any mistakes in the first leg. they will win.
The atmosphere of the Champions League is clearly very different from the EPL. So from that, it could be that Liverpool, who are currently still inconsistent in terms of performance, but I hope that by facing Real Madrid both of them will have a large enough influence so that in this match they can motivate Liverpool's players to be able to keep up with Real Madrid. I personally would not bet, or maybe take the draw option in this big fight.
2032  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bahrainian Hotel accepts bitcoin Payment on: February 19, 2023, 10:27:05 AM
This is good for adoption but there's one downside; the users must create Binance accounts if they haven't already. So if you have your BTC in your Electrum wallet, for instance, you can't pay and you must first transfer them to your Binance account.
That's quite a big downside if you ask me and one of the worst crypto payment implementations I've seen lately. I thought that Binance is there just to exchange crypto to fiat and not to be an actual requirement in order to pay with crypto.
Because they are affiliated with Binance so I don't think this is official hotel adoption. Because basically, it is Binance that benefits by depositing Bitcoins to Binance. Users have no other wallet option than using an exchange, obviously this is not something the worldwide Bitcoin community should be proud of when visiting there and wanting to book a room. If I had visited there, maybe cash would have been better and not the hassle of handing over my Bitcoins to an exchange.
2033  Economy / Economics / Re: Lebanese depositors smash up, burn Beirut banks on: February 18, 2023, 01:14:20 PM
Cases like this have happened frequently in Lebanon, and they can never be resolved easily. Government conditions that are no longer under control, the loss of power has long resulted in Lebanon becoming a country that has the potential to experience economic collapse. What's more, the protesters only demanded that their accounts be opened and they could access the money. Without granted access and the corrupt bank there I don't know if they really don't have any more money in the safe this would still be bad. Such as the theft is increasing and the worst is chaos everywhere just to get food. Supermarkets are the most ideal places to hunt.
2034  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think Satoshi every created some sort of back door to alter BTC? on: February 18, 2023, 12:30:58 PM
I know that sounds appalling, but do you think that it is possible that he did that? If he did do that, what exactly could he/they have the ability to change with so many people constantly maintaining Bitcoin core? If something like that was ever a possibility could BTC core developers reverse any changes made or prevent? I guess I’m just curious how many security measures are set in place to prevent things like that from every happening. Could they prevent or reverse a 51% attack as well?
Maybe it's just content that can be set up in such a way. But the point is that without any knowledge of Bitcoin if I were in that position I would take the same choice of $100. The reason is quite simple we can use $100 immediately, have physical possession and even at school we have been taught about the value and use of this money. So I won't blame him for not choosing Bitcoin it's just that when a content creator comes to someone who knows the value of Bitcoin and $100 it's clear he will choose Bitcoin.
2035  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: February 18, 2023, 12:11:37 PM
Well , whenever a team makes a lot of draws , I cam to conclusion that is way more possible for that team to suffer a defeat than rather obtain a victory. Having a draw will make your team very confused because no matter if they played good or bad , a draw is a great result no matter how you look in it. You could make a draw in all of EPL games , and you will be relegated 100%. Liverpool on the other hand , are desperately looking for points and Salah after he scored again , he might do it against Newcastle too.
at least a draw is better than getting bad results for example losing a few games, of course that will make Newcastle worse off, but so far Newcastle is playing well even though the results are often draws and at least they don't lose points, against Liverpool later I think Newcastle can do it add 1 point from another draw
With Liverpool current condition, it is still quite doubtful if they can play optimally. Their current opponent is a club that has grown a lot. Newcastle has managed to improve their performance this season and for Liverpool, this is the biggest test because their target to continue advancing is getting narrower.

I would probably bet on a Newcastle win, it's a slim result for him.
2036  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: If it was you on: February 17, 2023, 10:43:26 AM
Both have their pros and cons, and frankly I would not recommend a newbie to be trading at all, not until they can decide on their own which approach is best for them.


Even if you have been a market participant for a long time and you have never entered a trade, when you enter a trade, you are still a novice because you have no knowledge of trading.

Newbies can still enter the trade, we all used to be newbies and to gain experience, we need experience. I support newbies in trading as long as they are passionate and willing to accept losses to learn. As a newbie, when starting to trade, you should start with the smallest amount of capital to limit risks because what we are aiming for is not profit but knowledge and experience.
100% agree with what you suggest. Because of that I often give lessons to beginners who want to learn trading at my place. They must prepare minimum capital and use that capital within a certain period of time. It doesn't matter whether they will win or lose, because at the end of the session when evaluating, what I emphasize the most is what learning they can get during the process of learning to trade. That way we will know what kind of trading mentality they form.
2037  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2022/23 Season on: February 17, 2023, 09:34:14 AM
Beautiful game yesterday and I think this was the best result that could have happened because both teams showed a great performance with me being impressed by Manchester United form and also surprised by the fact that the team with the best recent form in all Europe was not able to win in their home field in front of their home crowd.

Still though anything is open for the qualification as now goals that you score away has no more value so even if it ends 0-0 in Old Trafford we will go to additional time and maybe penalties but I still think that Barcelona will qualify further from this duel.
The caste 2 league now has quite a different atmosphere when there are big clubs in it. With the Barcelona vs Man United match already underway, this has attracted a lot of attention. Moreover, the performance of the two teams was in optimal condition so that the end of the game was dramatic.

Leg 2 which will be played at Old Trafford will certainly be a big test, especially for the mentality of the Barcelona players because at Camp Nou maybe Gavi emotions will not be as tense as today's match. Several times Gavi has been under the spotlight for playing quite rough, Xavi job is to keep his players under control and focus on playing to win. Because when a player's emotions are provoked, Barcelona playing strategy will automatically no longer be well structured.

That's the picture I'm making for him now. a small example is when I need a source related to Bitcoin speculation knowledge etc., then JayJuanGee is the reference I'm looking for based on his posting history. I'm sure he's (JayJuanGee) reading this thread and laughing in his chair flipping his legs. JayJuanGee had a wide range of knowledge, always respecting the income of people who differed from him, but what he couldn't help but was that he was generous in giving awards, especially for posters that he could discuss with threads.

There are so many bad news was coming but will this news was affecting the performance from barcelona in la liga? We will see that.

I don't think that will reduce Barcelona's ambitions in Laliga, they will continue to consistently play Laliga matches until the end of the season, considering that they have lost the chance to win Laliga for the last three seasons.
It's not easy for Barcelona to reach this point, this season is a big opportunity for them to dominate Laliga
I am optimistic that the Laliga title will belong to Barcelona this season
Barcelona must focus on finishing what they started and what they are holding now. They have been in front of Real Madrid it will be very disappointing if they have to end empty-handed like the previous season where they could not even compete in the slightest. They also shouldn't be complacent with what they have achieved so far, because if they act like that I'm afraid bad luck will befall them.
2040  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: February 16, 2023, 03:24:08 PM
I remember when Bayern Munich was playing consecutive and successive draws in the league not knowing that their points are being reduced. Although having 1 point is better than having no point at all. I don't think that Union Berlin can will the league, unless they take the advantage that Bayern is aiming  both Bundesliga and champions league.
In the Bundesliga standings it is now seen that there are three teams that can disrupt the top of the standings if one of them loses their next game. This is obviously very interesting because now Bayern Munich is under pressure and is a very worthy opponent to compete in this season, even though in terms of strength it may still not be said to be balanced. But this time Bayern Munich needs to play more focused so that Union Berlin and Dortmund cannot sit in first place in the Bundesliga this season.
Standings like this make the league more interesting to watch. Bayern Munich is under great threat when they are only a few points away from the team under them. Yes indeed that is the result of their 3 matches which only played a draw so that other teams can catch up with them with a little ease. So now is a situation that their competitors must take advantage of if they don't want to see Bayern Munich return to being champions for many years.
