2141  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Does staking even make any sense on: April 07, 2022, 10:41:29 AM
How do people even enjoy staking their coins and tokens? I'm confused, yesterday I tried to stake some amount of stable coin aka USDT on Binance Exchange and it is worth 1000$ but the return on this in a year is 95$ lol, I laughed so hard that I almost flipped my laptop, why the heck people doing this?.
Imagine someone have 1 billion dollar and don't have time to manage that so they are staking to get that 9.5% make sense right so its definitely not going to make rich but for someone who is having lot and lots of money but don't know what to do with that can go for staking.

Reasonable, just because OP is looking to get rich quick with 1000$, he thinks this is pointless. If OP takes $1000 to invest instead of stake, then he will get back a large amount of money maybe x2, x3 in a short time, but OP will also lose everything when he invests in the wrong project scam. 9.5% is a reasonable interest rate, not too high but brings stable and sustainable income. Suitable for those who like safety and have idle money who do not know what business to do.
2142  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Should I invest in new projects? on: April 07, 2022, 10:25:30 AM
I like investing on new project first time listing on bigger exchange market because could make price drastically pump and available more than 300% up, but right now have several new project not brave listing on bigger exchange market and looks not potential for investing there. Maybe if new project announce will list on bigger exchange market looks interested for investing much money and I see last coin have announce with 6 exchange listing and price pump drastically.

Anyone can invest in new projects that aren't listed on major exchanges, but that depends on your risk tolerance and as long as you have thoroughly researched it then you can invest. But if you just invest without doing any research then I am sure you will gain nothing but loss.
Investing in new projects is not bad, but prioritize the top coins and bitcoin to minimize risk.

Normally I play Slots games, Crush games, Dice games, and roulette. I am playing these live games recently after seeing the review campaign and already I have become a fan of these games, I think I've to learn a little more about live casino games. I must admit that livecasino.io has a great selection of games undoubtedly.

And I am having entertainment from various games in different variations of casinos. Registration was so quick and easy without having any KYC documents. For playing games, I have to fill out a short form that contains some personal information, like email, username, and password.

After that just made the first deposit and email verification of my account for security, then I started playing games. 

And after playing sometime on the first day I withdraw money. 

The withdrawal was also super fast like depositing money. There was no problem to face.

2144  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Round of 16! on: April 05, 2022, 03:41:39 PM
In the Benfica - Liverpool rivalry, the English team is the clear favorite for promotion. Liverpool have been destroying all of their rivals recently, no matter in what competition. In their last 19 matches, they had 17 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat. Benfica must count on a favorable result, especially at home, if they want to fight for promotion. However, I believe that it will be extremely difficult for them and today I am betting on the victory of the guests.

I really don't think Benfica has any chance against Liverpool. and I don't think people also expect anything special from Benfica in this match. If I am right,  Benfica has not lost any match in the last 8. But I don't think that is going to make any difference because Liverpool has destroyed top-level teams in all the competitions. I don't think Benfica will win against Liverpool and there should not be any surprises.
2145  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if all cryptocurrencies merged together? on: April 05, 2022, 03:05:58 PM
Never thought of it and I'm sure it never will. How do all coins merge together? each coin is created on a separate blockchain and used for different purposes. Crypto is an extremely competitive environment if your coin doesn't keep up with the trend it will soon be replaced by another so how can they consolidate.
2146  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Have you, or would you ever use a Bitcoin ATM? on: April 05, 2022, 02:51:59 PM
This is a great question.  I had looked in to using an ATM before but once I did the research, I decided against it.  I was first looking to see how much money you could exchange for bitcoin without having to provide a lot of personal details.  There was some sort of small amount, one hundred bucks or so then you had to provided personal data for anything else.  I think I had limits of like 2-4k a day for buying and selling, something like that ( don't quote me 100% on that).  At the end of the day I came to realize it was just too much of a pain and too expensive.

I also got some replies from people in another post. I also have never used a Bitcoin ATM because in my country it is not installed and Bitcoin is not really legal in my country yet. But since using them means requiring KYC I would definitely be against them, I think the government is trying to control us through the use of Bitcoin ATM.
2147  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: El Salvador has become the first country to make #Bitcoin legal tender! on: April 05, 2022, 02:43:02 PM

El Salvador is spending USD before it adopted bitcoin as a legal tender, not having the local currency of its own. I expect countries that do not have their own local currency to follow El Salvador. Some countries can be friendly on bitcoin adoption which is what that matters most.

I also hope that the countries that are experiencing economic crisis because of inflation, the local currency has almost depreciated, will soon accept and use bitcoin as a form of legal tender like El Salvador. Bitcoin will be the solution that can help them overcome difficulties instead of waiting for the help of great powers


If some countries start making bitcoin a reserve, that is also part of adoption, this is what I would be glad to hear about next. If countries like Russia start accepting bitcoin for paying for oil and gases they are exporting, it is still part of adoption, but we do not know yet if this would be done by Russia, but I noticed bank of Russia hate bitcoin but Russia government have shown how they like bitcoin.

Before that, the Russian government and Russian banks both didn't like Bitcoin. Their rapid adoption of bitcoin was the premeditated solution to the war.

What we mostly need is for countries not to ban the use of bitcoin and make their citizens to use it.
Its very difficult for all countries to accept bitcoin and force their citizens to use it, unless it benefits them.
2148  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Three thousand Bitcoin ATM Installed In first quarter Of 2022 on: April 05, 2022, 01:58:23 PM
Bitcoin adoption around the globe is increasing with time. The installation of 3000 more bitcoin ATMs are a proof for the same. Though there is regular installation of bitcoin ATM, it isn't possible to see the same diversified around the globe. Only in specific locations the bitcoin ATMs were getting installed. Maybe this need to get diversified beyond the first world countries where 90% of the bitcoin ATMs were installed.

Indeed, the bitcoin adoption all over the world is increasing and the speed of this process is increasing as well, a few years ago there were a few installed bitcoin ATMs and just in a few countries while none could even imagine the installation of more than 3000 ATMs just in the first quarter of the year 2022 which is really huge amount of atm for bitcoin, however in order to use these machines passing KYC is always necessary and this can be a negative point of the story of bitcoin ATMs

I haven't had a chance to use Bitcoin ATM yet but if the usage involves KYC, I think I won't use them in the future. The fact that more and more Bitcoin ATM are installed is a good thing and hopefully Bitcoin will be widely used around the world. But with the KYC requirement it is a minus point, it is no different from our using a centralized exchange.
2149  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 30% tax on crypto income in INDIA on: April 05, 2022, 01:46:14 PM
This is not really good news for India, I think people will refrain from investing in it for huge taxes. This could hinder the progress of cryptocurrency. Even then, a Member of Parliament from India has been thinking positively about it. He has already spoken about it in Parliament. "Government doesn't understand Crypto hence the strictly regulations": Priyanka Chaturvedi

Indian government is not in favor for crypto in the first place so don't expect any positivity from there government because they only doing the tax law to control there citizen for using cryptocurrency. India government is very strict when it comes to there economy. This is really a bad news for crypto userin India but it's much better than completely banning cryptocurrency to there citizen. India is not prepared for crypto acceptance like EU so we should expect this kind of news or more harsher law to moderat crypto use in the future.

It is true that India was not in favor of crypto from the very beginning, but I think the Indian government understands that they cannot ban crypto. People will still figure out how to use crypto in any form, so taxing is the method they devised and taxing 30% is too greedy.
This is really terrible for Indian investors but to survive and continue the market this is probably the only way they can accept.

Rashford want leave Man Utd this summer because he cannot play regularly in this team so to keep his chance playing at world cup later he will looking for new club and Man Utd realized this situation and will find new player as the replacement of Rashford and they reported linked to Ajax player Antony but Man Utd not alone because Liverpool also want this player

I really don't know much about this transfer but if a player has to decide between Liverpool and Manchester United right now I think any player with a straight mind is obviously going to choose Liverpool because Manchester United does not guarantee anything at this moment. and on the other hand, Liverpool is At the top of the English Premier League table fighting Manchester City for first place.
2151  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 on: April 03, 2022, 07:30:02 PM
Betis had a very solid game against Osasuna today. It was a pure destruction by 4-1. They don't only want to keep the fifth place in the standings. They are thriving for taking the fourth place as well. They don't want to fall behind Atletico Madrid and Barcelona too much. And for now, they are doing a good job about it. But it still seems very hard for them to make it. Because Barcelona and Atletico Madrid both are having an incredible period in the league these days. Most probably, Barcelona would win today too.

I don't think there is any way how Barcelona is going to be defeated in today's match. Barcelona is obviously the better team in this match and the current form of Barcelona suggests that they are going to be the winners. I don't think there will be able to get ahead of Barcelona or Athletico Madrid this season. Even if they try really hard I think the best they will be able to do is get close to Atletico Madrid.
2152  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: April 03, 2022, 06:07:17 PM
Should we blame Bayern for being good and dominating Bayernliga Tongue
They pick the best players, best coaches, build a solid team to compete everyone while Dortmund is making good players and sell them for profit, which makes the team quite unstable. For now they have Haaland, they will sell him most likely next season then? For Leipzig, same thing, they reformed the team although the good season they made last time and here we go. The other teams like Leverkusen aren't that consistent to compete Bayern.

To be honest i think that the squad of Leipzig is stronger than the one of Borussia Dortmund. Of course at the moment Dortmund still has an absolute superstar in their team with Haaland but he will be gone in a few weeks and then at latest for me Leipzig has the stronger team. As you already said, at the moment it looks like Dortmund can not really attract good and established player with a big and good reputation to join them. Their current operating mode is to get young and very talented players from the biggest club of europes, where those players don't get much opportunity to play. The problem is that, if those players are developing great they won't stay at Dortmund and if they stay at Dortmund.

I actually realized something. Almost all of us say that Bayern Munich is the strongest team and they don't have enough competition at their level in the Bundesliga. But what we forget to realize is that we say this with a tone of complaint and that shouldn't be the case because Bayern Munich is only doing what they are supposed to do. It is not their fault obviously for not having enough competition on their level in the league.
2153  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: April 03, 2022, 06:03:55 PM
Previously I had convinced myself that I expected Atalanta to win, but the truth is that Napoli can lead by two goals in the first half. With this defeat in the first half, I currently doubt that Atalanta can win the match, even though the statistics show that it is clear that Atalanta can still dominate the match but the final result is still not promising. Because Napoli itself is not a weak team and also, competition in the title race makes Napoli will try hard to be able to maintain this temporary victory.

Napoli did end up winning the match in the end and the score was 3-1 in the end. They played like they were multiple steps ahead of their opponent. Atlanta did try to play well and give them a competition but it was not enough. I like how Napoli played in that match by the way because they got the first goal and they did not look back. They did not just sit on the lead and defend. They went for more goals which I really appreciate.

with yesterday's surprising away defeat of st. pauli at hansa rostock (0-1), werder bremen can become the sole leader of the table with a home win against sandhausen today with then 54 points.
the match between heidenheim and nürnberg will also be interesting - both teams need to win to avoid losing contact with third place.

Weirder Bremen could be the team that has the fairly comfortable lead from others but they unexpectedly could not win their last match against SV Sandhausen and came out with a draw. They do have 1 point lead from the later teams but that could be 3 points. St Pauli is not going to be bothered by Nurnberg or Heidenheim too much because they are still 5 points away.

TBF I don't think Rudiger will leave Chelsea and many Chelsea fans share this thought too. It will be quite easy for him to renew his contract with them when the ownership issue is sorted. I think that's the only disturbing factor for him and most players in the club at moment. It is actually laughable that Manchester United thinks Rudiger would consider joining them, if he is leaving Chelsea, he will go a club that can actually win trophies. PSG and Real Madrid are worthy options at moment.
It will be fine if Rudiger remains in Chelsea because he is a big structure in the club. Infact Rudiger is an asset to any team he will go. Due to his fine form, every club will like to have home at the defence line. But since his rumor keeps coming up it can be like he will leave Chelsea because everything is possible.

Rudiger to go to Manchester United is possible, forget about the trophy or going to champions. Manchester United is still a big club that every player wants to join and make money and add value to names. After all that is what football is for...

I think PSG is also out of the equation because a player who seeks greatness cannot achieve much if he goes to PSG other than the league title in my opinion.

I don't think a world war can happen. In any case, I do not think that this will be the time for crypto.
If you read the news especially from different sources, you can see how tense the relations between superpowers and rogue nations are one snap is all that it takes for a war to burst out. If ever a war was to break out, I don't think that bitcoin is going to be the first of the things we have to worry because war claims any lives it can get its hands on so your life is the priority more than bitcoin.

World War III will be a war of technology and nuclear, so if it happens it will bring the world back to the stone Age. Everyone's life may not be saved, not many people will survive. So currency and bitcoin or any other asset will no longer be a concern of people. Our lives come first.
2157  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are Your Kids Aware Of Bitcoin? Teach Them. on: April 03, 2022, 04:51:45 AM
Many times I had come accoss this topic,the simplest way to understand this was easy.We need to teach the kids above 14 about cryptocurrency.Because it was not clear to the new kids below.They don’t clear with money making principles at the age of 14.They will know how to spend money with their friends.Because they are just playing kids and not a experienced traders

When they grow up and have enough awareness will be the most appropriate time. At 14, I still don't think it's appropriate to teach them finance or invest in bitcoin. They should not be taught to invest because they are not yet aware of how risky investing is. 18 years old will be most suitable when reaching adulthood and finishing high school. This is the time when children should step out of their parents' comfort zone to become adults.
2158  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: LTC for BTC...? on: April 03, 2022, 04:32:49 AM
If you compare LTC with BTC or ETH in terms of parameters and development process as well as achievements, it is not comparable. But LTC also had significant growth reaching an ATH of $386 in May 2021.
Currently, new blockchains are constantly appearing and there are significant improvements. But LTC is still considered a good asset to accumulate when the market fluctuates along with BTC although the returns won't be as high as the new blockchain.
2159  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How do you feel if satoshi back on: April 03, 2022, 03:50:31 AM
Satoshi won't come back, I certainly won't. With his reappearance this is not necessarily a good thing, instead of it bringing glory to him he will be in more trouble. While bitcoin is falling out of favor with national governments as it threatens their traditional financial system. His return will leave him hunted and tortured rather than glorified, he has chosen to remain silent for many years, which is perfectly reasonable and should be kept that way.
2160  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What's preventing bitcoin from worldwide adoption? on: April 03, 2022, 03:34:28 AM
Bitcoin remains to be adopted by every country in the world for various reasons. Here are my thoughts on why..

1. Government policies: Most government and financial institutions round the world seem not to want bitcoin cause of the financial freedom it gives to its users. They would want to control and tax the flow of finances of individuals and they probably fear the anonymous nature of its transactions. Some policies even go as far as criminalizing its use.


Government is the root cause, they never accept something they cannot control. Fiat will remain their favorite tool and will do whatever it takes to stop the growth of bitcoin, if they cannot stop bitcoin their power will be lost.

Once the government accepts bitcoin, I think other problems will be solved soon. If the government recognizes bitcoin and encourages people to use BTC, people will be more interested in it, fraudulent acts will be strictly controlled by the government and the bad news about bitcoin will be gone if the government accepts it.
