2021  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What is the safest coin to stake? on: March 25, 2022, 06:50:25 AM
apart from the prizes that will be obtained, I think Cosmos can be a reference for us if you want to stake,
after all we have to study it and do research first in order to get maximum results,
Cosmos coin is potential and promising so over time this coin will continue to grow and develop
Cosmos definitely has a good interest in heart, and they are trying to do the best they can, but the reality is that we are talking about a place that may not do as great as they are hoping for. I am not saying that it will go down or anything, all I am saying is that there are places which does a lot worse in the long run because it never got any hype, and this could be the reason why Cosmos may not do well.

I believe they need that hype which makes the coins go up, that way they could get better and I believe that it would make things a lot better for them if they could somehow get a hype. For that hype, they need to up the marketing and spend a bit more.

Well europe want gas and profit is stoped now sooner or later situation will be changed the gas is importent.
 
Here is two ways

They can remove putin then remove sanctions

They tell just putin stop it putin will stop it and they remove sanctions and everythig will be normal again.
Yes, when they happened to be in a situation where they are lacking a lot of things that they would have been getting if they were in good terms with Russia they will definitely try to look for a way to take Putin out and have someone else who is going to be in control and in good terms with them.

Although we are not yet sure how they would go about that for now. But we would wait and see how it goes. For now, they will continue to sanction and do whatever they will do as a way to pressure Russia and make them put an end to the war that they have started.
2023  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Saved Me. on: March 24, 2022, 08:22:05 PM
To my surprise, the little I learnt, I decided to start with 2,000NGN as that was all I had.
This not true as 2000 NGN i just $3.4 with the selling rate at Binance #584 and believe many exchangers has set limitation of trading, mostly Binance is $10+ so i don't know how one can trade with 3.4 and become that rich or successful. I can easily be convinced by buying and hold maybe you started with just NGN 2000 as the case maybe, you kept on topping the BTC in your wallet before the price break out. yeah this is a genuine reason.
Was there a specific year mentioned in my write up? Maye be if you go through the write up again you will understand better that am talking about my experience.
Why there's no year? If you can only add more details in your post maybe some of us here won't keep on guessing if how you actually did it but since you haven't supplied it yet my guess is you invested in btc using that amount and you let it grows till it's enough to trade on exchanges and trading is where you made most of your profits.

You have lost before you discovered btc but that can be a blessing of disguise because it allows you to find ways on how to recover it but you haven't expected that btc can give you more than just a recovery. Btc is truly amazing. Your story is inspiring and there is a lesson to get here, that is we should not give up easily.
2024  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Impact of bitcoin if Satoshi Identity is revealed on: March 24, 2022, 07:11:32 PM
One of the reason for high trust on bitcoin is that the bitcoin owner Satoshi identity is hidden. If all of sudden Satoshi come in the public and his identity is revealed, do you think it will have a bad impact on the bitcoin price and it can dump?  Or do you think that bitcoin price will pump on this revelation? Mind you that i am talking about the real satoshi, not the fake ones claiming themselves to be satoshi.
Satoshi's identity being anonymous has nothing to do on why bitcoin is trusted but bitcoin is trusted because it's the first crypto and till now it is still there. it's also strong because no matter how low its price can go, it can still recover and increase more than its previous price. People get used to this trait of bitcoin, that is why they trusted it.

If ever satoshi pops up one day, it cant affect the price in any way (good or bad) but the price will still depend on the actions of the investors. Bitcoin is bitcoin, no change is going to be made on its system so no changes in its value is going to be felt. We know that what you mean is the real satoshi. We have no time entertaining the fake one.
2025  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: March 24, 2022, 06:22:09 PM
Australia declared their second innings at 228 runs. And they gave a target of 351 runs. Is it enough to win? In the previous Test match too, Pakistan batted very well in the second innings. Pakistan's collection is now 73 runs without losing a wicket. Pakistan needed only 278 runs to win on the fifth day. They need 3.1 runs per over to win. No big goals. And I think Pakistan will win this match. Australia should have given more than 400 targets.
I have no words for this Australian decision because right now we have talk about this, few saying it's suicidal and few calling a very brave decision because they know Pakistan is unpredictable team and Australian can handle them in last and final day of this historic test series for win.

But, after watching this last 90 minutes game now I am feeling Pakistan can win from here, and surely It's going to be suicidal for Australia as there were some good criticism against Cummins about Karachi decision now this also can go against him in Australian media now requirement is nearly 90 overs, and we have 278 runs with all ten wickets in hands both openers playing very sensible with now their main target is tomorrow they have to save their wickets in first session for better win option for themselves.
2026  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: I am big fan of SHIBA on: March 24, 2022, 03:44:58 PM
I am a big fan of SHIBA INU. I have kept this coin on hold for a long term investment. I keep an eye on his team and his future plans. And I want to discuss how much it will cost in the future. So give me your opinion.
Good for you that you are a big fan of this coin and you are proud to let anyone know while others are scared and shy if someone will find out that they support a coin like this because you know shib have receive a lot of criticism. Just curious if how long have you been holding this coin already?

You said you strictly monitor the coin and its plans so can you share if what did the shiba did in the past and what are their future plans? That is for us to know why you and other shib supporters must continue their support on this coin. I thought you are the one that will discuss about shib then why do you still want our opinion? when most of us knows nothing about this coin.

Qualification based on ICC ranking is shittist rule in ICC playbook and then these nutjobs gives sermons to others, to help em with the so called spreading the game nonsense. No wonder associates nations are not progressing.

IMO WC automatic qualification should be based on only 1-2 points.

- If you're host nation.
- If you were the finalist in the last edition.

And if you don't fall in these 2 categories then simply play the qualification. This also apply to Men's cricket.
Agree, sadly in ICC we have mostly colonial mind peoples those have no vision for this game and just going through for their own deep pockets which is hurting very badly right now just because of these peoples its popularity is not going as it needs to be even revenue is having some good positive gain, but they need to have some wholesale changes in these all formats if they still want some good gain now we're already having big challenge with franchise cricket, but they can do some better like having test cricket for only Eight teams ODI is going for twelve teams and settling T20 format for sixteen teams with all these from later formats teams need to came through qualification can make some good interest.
2028  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: EFL English Championship League Thread 2021/2022 on: March 22, 2022, 09:20:36 PM
They have still some very slim chances to make it past relegation although I believe this to be highly unlikely and unfortunately they will be relegated.The only slim chance for them to be safe from relegation is for the other teams to screw up these last games of the Championship and they to win almost every remaining game.Unfortunately such scenario I don't think it is possible because seeing their recent form and that of the teams just above relegation zone it is clear that those other teams are in better shape.Shame for Derby but that is football.
Maybe you are right, but now they have seven matches remaining in this season and their opponents are Fulham, Blackpool, QPR, Cardiff Preston, Bristol City and Swansea they need to win five matches and with this Reading lost their most matches which is not good-looking for me from here specially with their current form because in last five matches they have only four points and no win in away matches.

21 points deduction is surely harsh but still it's all about The FA and them, so we can't talk about this here but for me, they are going into League one for next season with some more problems are waiting for them in next season as they are losing more things just because of this financial problems.
2029  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: EFL English Championship League Thread 2021/2022 on: March 22, 2022, 08:16:53 PM
Fulham played really well this season and I have to say personally they have exceeded my expectations. I thought they could be at the top 4 or 5 at best. But, now they are in first place and have a comfortable lead of 8 points.

Expected a little better from Sheffield United though. Talk that they are going to end in at least the top 4.

Rooney did try his best but I really don't think that he could have done any better with the resources that he has and the type of squad he has to manage with. Mistakes can be pointed out in some places but I think he did good enough.
As we all know deduction of 21 points is insane for any team, so Derby is surely had the biggest disadvantage with this but still very good and hard fought fight from Rooney but with this all most chances they will drop and play in League 1 in next season. Fulham and Bournemouth both are doing good work for going back into Premier League and most chances we will have no change here because these both teams are in good form from start of this season, and they have done good work for their promotion.

Now. we have very interesting fight in Playoff because suddenly something happening with Luton is doing good and QPR suddenly losing ground with the worst results, but we have another team which is doing best for staying in touch it's Nottingham, hopefully in next few weeks we will have some good changes in these positions.
2030  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why NFT might become important in the cryptospace and the world on: March 22, 2022, 11:24:14 AM
The world of NFT is a free world. Nobody is forced to buy a jpeg worth a million. Just like during the ICO, nobody is forced to invest in a project that turned out to be a scam.

But the main problem is that it is a free world. In a free world, the predators are free to abuse their prey. This is what happened in the ICO years. Projects are 99.9% scam and low quality. They are promoted and marketed everywhere. They used the names of large companies and popular individuals to prey upon the innocent people.
Yeah, when it is a free world there tends to be more risk involved. In a community that is decentralized there is the possibility that a lot of scammers will be trying to prey on some people. Because, they know that there isn’t anyone to look into whatever issue that happens in the cryptocurrency community most of the times. So, it is up to people to be careful when it comes to NFT.

You have to know what you are buying and be sure of it and not just buying any art you see on any of these NFT platforms. You have to be very sure that what you are buying is correct and also know the quality of art piece that you are buying. You don’t just go buying random stuffs without even checking them out.
2031  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Bitcoin Crash in The Next 2 Weeks? on: March 22, 2022, 09:12:28 AM
Someone wrote this on Twitter, how true is it?

Quote
Biden's regulation will knock it out the next 2 weeks. Stock Market crash will intensify the pain in March. After that, I'll buy.
1 month had passed and yet? I don't think there will ever be a crash happening in effect of Biden's regulation because if this will really take effect then this must be in the early time. and now month after? lol I am not buying this one.

What I am seeking is the effect if the US will take part in the Ukraine -Russia war because for sure the market will dump  so much.
The support to be crashed that is expected to happen seem to be a typical FUD to scare investors. The market did not crash but what happens instead is that the market started to rise gradually and yeah buying now the price is rising is still not yet recommended but the only best moment for buying is when the market experience a crash because after every crash, a recovery or a rise is always going to follow up.

What you seek about USA taking part of the war have already happened last time. They already gave sanctions to the country of Russia but that did not affect the market of cryptos in a negative way. The effects of it are rather positive.

Of course bitcoin has never seen a war before, unlike gold who has proven itself to be a good hedge. However, bitcoin as digital gold could be the next great asset that could be used right now. Specially if you are in either of the two countries, when your money is worthless. So the best thing to do is this situation is to have your money hedge it to bitcoin, very simply if you wanted to protect your wealth during and after the war.
Although bitcoin is still new for now, it is definitely a really good option for anyone that wants to use it as a hedge for value. First it has a limited supply, and by having a limited means that it is going to be increasing in value as more and more people continues to invest in the bitcoin market.

A lot of people are still getting to know about Bitcoin, we should be looking forward to more investors in the future. And there are also institutions that are now considering bitcoin an asset to invest in. There are already those of them that have started investing and they will keep investing, while more continues to join and invest.
2033  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: March 21, 2022, 09:56:19 PM
PSG and Real Madrid underestimated their opposite. They thought they are more stronger, and can possibly crash any team. But, to our greatest surprise, they both got defeated yesterday. The Monaco match was probably very interesting. While, Barcelona really deserve the winning, because they tried in the game, Real Madrid defense was terrible. However, them been in a comfortable place on the standings, doesn't means they shouldn't take their matches serious, it will probably lead to them dropping more points.
Maybe you are right but still many peoples now have doubts about things like this and things like this happened mostly on Sundays because we have too many matches around European Leagues and peoples have no enough time for think about these results, so they manipulate results for their own sack because we all know A Billion Of USD involved in betting so just one or two results like these have very big impact on punters and their money mostly we have punters those love to play on favorites, so these hurt them very badly just for an example I read nearly 15 to 20 peoples on this forum lost their dozens of bets singles and multi just because of these two matches even it's a very small case, and we can have millions around the globe, so I am also agreed here we can say these results were manipulated.
2034  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: El Salvador's President Bukele gets An 85% Approval Rating on: March 21, 2022, 09:35:25 PM
An italian podcaster spent more than one month in El Salvador spending only bitcoin: no usd, no credit cards, only bitcoin, both onchain and LN.
He said that the average people in El Salvador know very little about bitcoin, so I guess this astonishing level of popularity is due to other reasons than our mutual orange friend.
Yay, you can’t do that in other countries. The reason why he was able to do that is because of the fact that Bitcoin has been declared a legal tender in El Salvador. If it wasn’t declared a legal tender, he wouldn’t be able to spend it easily. As long as it was declared a legal asset it is possible that a lot of people would get to hear and know about it in the country, because it is now the same thing as fiat in the country.

In my country you can’t spend Bitcoin at any store, you won’t even see any store accepting at all. if you check online you would be able to find someone who is accepting Bitcoin, but offline? You’re not going to find anyone at all.
2035  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 on: March 21, 2022, 08:10:19 PM
I commend Barcelona after they won the El Clasico by a score that surprised many "even Real Madrid fans" because I thought Barcelona would have had an even match from Real Madrid's players that night. I expected the game to end 1-2 for Barcelona to win, but it turned out to be 0-4.

Based on goal chances I thought I should have scored more than 6 goals that night against Real Madrid, but Courtois managed to secure some chances and some were not finished well by the barcelona players. I think Real Madrid's performance was greatly affected by Benzema's absence, it reduces their attacking power so Barcelona don't have to worry too much about defending. Really, it was a great job from Xavi and Barcelona.
Yah it was really stunning to watch Barcelona scoring 4:0 against Real Madrid. Aubamayoung's was amazing with his 2 goals adding to 4. Was expecting that the match should go much tougher with at least 3:3 draw but yes it was Barcelona just made it. Really disappointed to see Real Madrid without a goal. Real Madrid is worth to at least score minimum of 3 goals  in such matches.
This El Clásico was surely a horror show for Real Madrid and manager Ancelotti because no one was expecting result like this specially at Real Madrid home even mostly was surely to believe we are going to have score like this from home team against Barcelona, but they started in very aggressive mood and until end they never give any change to them for having any breath.

Without any doubt now Aubamayoung is the key playmaker for them with his natural talent and abilities. Benzema's absence have some impact but with result like this showing if he was available then still we have things like this not good for Real Madrid because in last night match we have feeling they were not having any thoughts about performance like this from Barcelona, but they give them shock of this year and big announcement for next seasons challenge.
2036  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is the purpose of all these altcoins? on: March 20, 2022, 09:09:07 PM
Most of the memecoins are made to scam people. Quick pump and dump scheme. People invest in those coins with the hope of getting rich. But only few lucky ones that act quick make some profit, while rest of them loses everything. None of those meme coins survives long enough. They all eventually die. Dogecoin has no real use case, but it was the first meme coin and so it has a huge advantage along with a strong community support. Shiba is also another meme coin, but they also have a huge community and actively wants to develop it and bring actual use cases.
Those coin keep on showing up because it is a decentralized market and no one can stop them from making a new coin.
Meme coins and shitcoins can be an equivalent to pyramid scheme/scams because only early investors gets the benefits the most. Early investors must also invite people in the form of shilling the coin so that more people joins and more money for them and for the developers of the coin.

This is can be their true purpose on why they are created because they don't have other real use cases anyway however there are coins with a unique technology around them but the only problem is they join the hype of the meme trend where they also use a name of an animal, this makes them mistaken as a meme coin and legit investors will avoid them.

After Laporte scored an own goal, I thought that City wanted to join the clubs that are trying to destroy me this weekend (Inter, PSG and some others). It is very good that Guardiola, with the help of substitutions, changed the course of the match and City were able to confidently win (although there were moments during the game when they looked worse). Now I will wait for Liverpool to win.


Congrats mate Jota's 87th minute goal complete line up for The FA Cup semi-final, and you have your ticket in all greens with this win now Liverpool is going to meet Manchester City in semi-final and Chelsea is having Crystal Palace as their opponent with this all most chances I have feeling we are going to watch again Liverpool vs Chelsea final as we already have in EFL Cup.

Recently Manchester City is not performing as they were few weeks back so with this all most chances we can see Liverpool is going to complete their double in domestic cups with now have only 1 point gape in Premier League which is also achievable if they have done this then surely it's going to be historic season for them with some amazing performance in all events.
2038  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bitcoin, Dogecoin Gain After Musk's Tweets, But Will There Be Another Bull Run? on: March 20, 2022, 06:51:23 PM
I guess so,,, but now even above 250 satoshi per doge feels like a big slump from 1000 satoshi but still this is way more than a year ago at 50 satoshi,,, it is wonderful for a joke coin. And over the years it always goes up and up in terms of BTC price. Other memecoins have not copied this pattern yet Smiley
From 1000 to 250 sats is really a big dump but yeah the price of dogecoin is so much better now compared to when its price before it got hyped. It's really amazing because who would have thought that a joke coin that everyone else is making fun of will jump thru the roof one day?

But, doge doesn't goes up year after year and its increase have come to an end by the time people figured out that they are only being fooled by Elon and Elon stop mentioning the coin from his tweets but it looks like he was back at it again but right now we haven't seen a big difference in the price of doge or see lots of publicity news about it, maybe people really learned their lesson.

Here we go again

Not worth collecting, the charts are getting worse by the day, Price low and low. Supply big
And it had dipped to its own position almost from where it was.
Shiba is just a meme token no use case, just filling the pockets of the rich.
Stop fooling people
It was never a good token to collect. From the first minute to right now, it was always a memecoin and it was only there because people beloved they could buy it now, get it pumped because of something, and sell it later. All those "some guy put 8k in it and it worths 3 billion today!" posts were all about pumping it up and how big it got.

Congratulations, now you have one guy who could sell all his tokens and crash the whole market with his single button. I am sorry but if I ever want to invest into something, I do my due diligence and I always invest into something that takes crypto seriously. If money is a joke to them, let them invest into memes.

A long game too boring for the players and the viewers as well. I have seen there were hardly any spectator in the ground as well. Sometime such a long games drain too much of energy. I think it well end in draw like Pk and Aus match. I will keep a look on the  update to see if my prediction turns out to be right.
There was a time when there is a match in West Indies, the stadiums used to fill and it used to be like a carnival and it is strange to see that the stadiums are empty. I did not watch the matches because the run rate is really low and you need to have the patience to watch the match  Cheesy.
West Indies still trail by 97 runs but the match is not going anywhere as it will end up in a draw as there is not much time left in this match.
Right now, we have two series in progress and both are giving very negative impact on test matches with franchise leagues are stealing all show, both West Indies and Pakistan bringing some poor mind-set which is really not supportive from any side.

West Indies lost all ten wickets, but we are also losing all chances of any result from this test match and now end of two innings in four days is surely the worst thing happening with run rate from West Indies is also very poor like 2.25 is not good hopefully we will have some good and supportive things in near future from these countries and main culprit behind this all ICC to do some better things for life of Test because if they fail then surely it's going to be dead rubber, and we are going to lose one off most beautiful game in this poor way.
