They won't end up in big financial trouble. With the transfer of Sancho they are definitely fine. Not only did cost a lot of money regarding the transfer fee, but Dortmund now also saves his salary, which would have been increased anyway I assume. Haaland won't leave unless a club is willing to pay an absolutely gigantic sum of money.

Also I think they can sell relatively well their tickets again to vaccinated fans and those hardcore fans in Dortmund are probably going to get vaccinated in order to go the home games. Dortmund will be alright.
They don't have bad financial trouble but they have problem with Haaland. The release price in the contract signed between them allows Haaland to be bought by other clubs with discount price in the next transfer season.

So if Dortmund don't think they can convince Haaland to sign a new contract, with bigger release cost, and can not convince him to stay longer, they will have to sell Haaland in this summer. It is bad to wait one more season and lose half of income from Haaland transfer.

The release clause will be valid since June 2022. It is a trap for Dortmund because if they won't win any title in a season 2021-2022, they will no longer be able to keep Haaland.

Despite the conflicting rumors, Borussia Dortmund have privately let it be known that Erling Haaland's release clause will only be valid starting June 2022, at a price point of €75 million (roughly $91 million).

I have a different view of this situation here what if Inter Milan was keen to keep Lukaku, but he himself is forcing this move because he wants to play in the premier league again?. Also second reason is Lukaku wants to punish Manchester United for selling him, hence more than the club the blame of this deal lies on Lukaku.

Source:

https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/romelu-lukaku-chelsea-inter-milan-24683362
Inter Milan is in bad financial condition and if you look at the drama in Barcelona and what Jiangsu FC are suffered, it looks not good for Inter Milan. They have same owners and when the owners are in troubles, Inter Milan can not wait for financial budget from them.

Lukaku was not treated too well in either Chelsea or Manchester United. He made his name in Premier League with West Bromwich Albion & Everton. Lukaku in Wikipedia. He scored 85 goals in Premier League with those clubs in 5 seasons. Very impressive.

0 goal for Chelsea and only 28 goals for Manchester United in Premier League.

Transfer news from Atalanta they just loaned Demiral from Juventus. They got him on loan until the rest of the season. If they want to buy him after the loan they will have to pay 30 milion $. I think Demiral is now a great addition to the Atalanta defence . They are looking better and better every season. They might even win the title this season
$30M is very expensive price for Demiral. Atalanta succeed with strategy to buy cheap players who is unimportant in other clubs and grow them up in Atalanta. In the new season, I am exciting to wait for Atalanta performance in season 2021 - 2022. If they can stay in top 3, they should be recognized as a beast in Serie A. With chaotic situations in other big clubs, Atalanta with their stability in player squad, coach position can make big surprise, winning Scudetto is possible.

Actually in this situation who is really to blame, Messi, Laliga rule or Barcelona? I also heard rumor that after Messi left, Aguero and some of their new players could also leave because of the tour.
Barcelona are responsible for it but how long has the Financial Fair Play in La Liga been applied? Is it changed or updated recently? If it is in effects long time ago, Barcelona would be aware of the law when they discussed the new contract with Messi.

Quote
I really want to know if the same situation will be faced with some Real Madrid players. It would be ridiculous to watch Laliga if more and more star players moved to other league.
La Liga should not launch a local Financial Fair Play that harm their league and local clubs. Real Madrid might have worse financial sheet than Barcelona and salary budget because they are constructing a new stadium. Perhaps, they have better income from 3 Champions League titles.

Quote
Now Ligue1 will be even more popular because of Messi's arrival at PSG. A new trio will be formed (Messi, Neymar, Mbappe) to allow PSG to win the 2021/22 Champions League title.
Pep Guardiola said Manchester City have belief in Grealish and they don't need Messi even they can sign with him as a free player. Hence PSG is the only destination for Messi.

About Messi's decision that changed from before, where previously Messi was willing to stay at Barcelona by reducing his salary, but before the league started it turned out that new news emerged about Messi who would leave Barcelona. With a decision like this I'm not sure Barcelona will be able to win the title this season, because before I was sure if Messi stayed at Barcelona then of course Barcelona's chance to get the title this season is very big. Sad
I read news that Barcelona are strugging to register Aguero and Depay in their squad for La Liga, because of salary budget and the hell Financial Fair Play in La Liga. It's my agreement that they will begin a new season with a storm and even worse than the La Liga 2020 - 2021. Atletico Madrid looks to be the best candidate in a new season.

Yeah, I was kind of wondering why OP and other members who posted in this thread received similar e-mails.  It looks like either these scammers got ahold of bitcointalk members' e-mails or those e-mails were used for some unrelated crypto things and got sold or hacked.
They likely registered on bad websites that sold customer email addresses or spam emails of customers.

Quote
I get infrequent spam in my primary e-mail account, and when I see that there's any in my spam box, I usually just delete them without even looking to see what they're about.  I'd bet you that I've probably gotten e-mails like the ones OP showed, and I'll be on the lookout for any in the future if only to satisfy my curiosity about how my e-mail was obtained.  I don't use that address for any other bitcoin-related things, so the only way a scammer could have gotten it is through bitcointalk (or if they just happen to be a scammer using bitcoin as their tactic and got a list of e-mails from another source).
I always ignore those emails but I did not delete them immediately. Sometimes I delete them instantly, sometimes not but I delete them later. I never click on those emails to see what the content is.

Take the test by creating, say, 5 unique e-mail addresses and then registering on 5 different online platforms related to cryptocurrencies - then track what you will receive at those e-mail addresses in the future.
I did not know how it caused spam emails but if I try it, I will try it with my email that I never use for my exchange accounts.

That's exactly what I would do, yes. In reality, however, it looks more like that I am rarely in the plus and at the end of the month the 50$ are also used up. Either I just have little luck or I do something wrong Wink

But in principle I do not care, I am usually very well entertained and have my fun, that counts. If it then comes during a month that I get profits, then I use the remaining budget usually to try out other casinos.
Gambling is for fun and for entertainment. It is not a way to get richer. If anyone think gambling can help them become a billionaire with luck, I think it is totally wrong approach. That will cause irresponsible gambling that is very bad.

When I bet, I afford for my lose. If I win, I feel happy but if I lose, I don't feel it as a nightmare because as said, I start gambling with awareness that I might lose my money.

Gambling gives you more fun than trading so if you can afford loses with trading, you can afford loses with gambling. Just do it responsibly.
2166  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: August 06, 2021, 11:13:36 AM
He's good but he's not done anything to justify that tag, but it's getting out of hand with these transfer fees when even average players are fetching silly money. I suppose it depends on their finances and who they've sold, but they surely can't afford both Grealish and Kane. Is the Grealish signing a done deal? If it is I'm betting they're regretting that now Messi is a free agent and City would have been on of the likely teams he was interested in.
English players have overvalued price on transfer market. I don't say Grealish is not a good player but the cost for him is high crazily and it is an overpaid transfer from Manchester City.

Messi is already a free player and Manchester City won't not pay transfer fee. The issue is salary for Messi and how to convince him to join Manchester City. Pep can be a plus point for them to convince Messi. Manchester City can help Messi to win at least one Champions League before he ends his career.

He's definitely good, and has manged to shine in a Aston Villa side which I would describe as overwhelmingly average, however they did over perform last season, which is probably because of the impact that Grealish had, but I don't think hes a huge improvement over Manchester City's existing players.
Grealish is good but the appearance of Jack can put other players in the squad of Manchester City in uncertain positions. De Bruyne has a solid position, Bernado Silva too. Grealish probably takes the position of Phil Foden. It wil be bad for Phil after the last good season.

Quote
If Manchester City get Kane or actually any prolific striker, we'll be one step closer to having a one team league, similar to that of the French league. I don't want that, and that's exactly the reason financial fair play was introduced, to prevent this from happening.
Kane is the most desired player of Manchester City now because they need him to replace Kun Aguero. Gabriel has never provided enough goals for the club. Sterling is not a striker and unbelievably misses great opportunities.

Binance has a bias to recommending their wallets, services it is not the best resource to recommend to a newbie who does not know what Binance is. Instead its better for them to look on the forum of all the services offered and decide for themselves.
Recommended wallets. If people know the rule that non-custodial wallets are better than custodial wallets, they will not use exchange wallets.

The easiest way to prevent gambling addiction is to see gambling as what it is: a hobby. I already talked about may how I achieve this in other threads so I am going to put this short:
  • Set yourself a monthly limit, eg. 50$ and deposit the coins on your favourite casino
  • As soon as your balance hits 0 again stop playing for the Rest of the month, don't even think about depositing any additional money

It is simple but very effective  Wink
It is a good approach for responsible gambling. I contribute another tip.

From $50 of your monthly allocation for gambling, if you win up to $200, withdraw your $150 and use the $50 for the rest day of that month or next month. It is not hard to win but it is harder to keep the money you won. You will more easily to lose your won money than your deposit.

If after $150 withdrawal, you lose all $50, let's stop gambling in that month.

I want to know your opinion on margin trading is it good for beginners or not?
It is very bad for beginners. In crypto market beginners will have to master the market with 3 to 4 years. I can bet 99% of beginners won't survive after four years if they use margin for trades.

Quote
is there any high chance of losing the money?
Depends on formula for liquidations of each exchange, you will lose about 70% of your collateral for your margin account. First liquidation, lose 70% of initial capital. Second liquidation, lose 70% of 30% initial capital or 21% of initial capital.

After 2 liquidations, you will lose 91% of your initial capital. Is it fast or slow rate of losing money?
2171  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Uruguayan Lawmaker Proposes Bill to Treat Crypto as Legal Tender on: August 05, 2021, 03:27:06 PM
From a proposal to a real approval is far but it give us hope that there will be more nations consider Bitcoin or crypto as legal tender. Uruguay is a bigger nation than El Salvador.

It takes three years from 2017 to 2020 to bring big institutions to crypto market and I hope that after Bitcoin goes to mainstream in the last two years, the process toward legal tender will be achieved in less than three years. Perhaps in 2022, we will see something big with legal tender for crypto globally.

It will not be a rosy journey and there will be many challenges from governments before cryptocurrency can be treated as legal tender on bigger scale, globally.

Most likely it looks like Haaland will stay at Dortmund, after Chelsea who are most serious about getting Haaland now start to turn to chasing
Lukaku as their next target.
Haaland can contribute more seasons for Chelsea than Lukaku and Haaland can grow more but Lukaku is at his limit. I don't think Lukaku can improve his skills too much more.

If Chelsea give up with Haaland and finally buy Lukaku, I consider it is a failure for them with long term vision for the club growth.

Quote
Moreover, Dortmund has just lost Jadon Sancho, so there is a possibility that Dortmund are not ready to lose Haaland
either. This will make Dortmund supporters happy, if Haaland does not make a move this year. Because to be able to compete with Bayern in
the Bundesliga, Dortmund do need the presence of Haaland.
Dortmund even can not compete with Bayern with Haaland in their team. Who will provide good key passes to Haaland. Sancho already left the club with a big transfer to Manchester United. Jude Bellingham is not a similar attacking player like Sancho.

The trouble is, the fees are high
Fee is very cheap in the last day. It's time for you to learn about mempool, fee rate that will help you to pick cheapest fee rate for your transactions but at the same time satisfy your acceptable waiting time for first confirmation.

https://jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#BTC%20(default%20mempool),24h,weight
It's easily to see the mempool currently is very low and fee rate is up and down around 1 to 3 satoshi/ vbyte. With 1 or 3 satoshi/vbyte, in the last 24 hours, you can get first confirmation in the next block.

3 cryptocurrency payment methods for both deposits and withdrawals is alright, but they need to add more options like XRP, Doge etc just like the competition. Also, the fees always matter regardless of whether you are a whale or small-scale gambler.
XRP, Dogecoin and TRX are my votes for future coins in payment methods on Rollbit.com.

It's unnecessary for any rush to add new coins but I rememberd the Rollbit team said that they are keen on consideration of new payment methods for the Rollbit casino. Altcoins have risk of double spending, 51% attack and even transaction fees with altcoins are cheaper, the team have to consider about risk.

It all depends on the number of components in the vaccine, because there are vaccines for the use of which it is enough to use one component and, accordingly, once. Professional sports are suffering a lot because of the pandemic restrictions and it's really time to make concessions in favor of already vaccinated people and all sorts of talk about discrimination is inappropriate here, because it's time for humanity to end the pandemic and only vaccination will help in solving this problem. Even if the vaccine is not one hundred percent effective, even an efficiency of 70-80 percent will be crucial if as many people as possible are vaccinated. It is sad to watch football matches without spectators or with incomplete filling of stadiums, because a certain aura of sports action is lost.
Efficacy in RCTs usually is lower in real population with effectiveness.

I know one article that gives a summary table about effectiveness (not efficacy) of vaccines, dose 1 and dose 2.
Are Covid Shots Working? What the Real World Tells Us

Dose 1: 30% to 35.6%
Dose 2: 67% to 88%.

For delta variant, Plizer has better effectiveness than Astra Zeneca.

Honestly it would be a shame if Bale retired, I hope he adapts, I remember when Bale came out the side and took the ball taking advantage of his speed, no defender could reach him, he has a lot of ability to do that kind of game that is almost like a goal, when he was with CR7 it was spectacular to see him play.
Bale can play better than many other players. In the season 2020 - 2021, with limited appearances, Bale still scored lots of goals and he now can play very good as a striker. The problems with Bale are from himself mostly. He does not really concentrate on football and he does not want to continue his career more.

Quote
The problem with Zinedine Zidane is a question of strategy, I remember when Zidane did not get James Rodríguez (El Colombiano) to play in the important games of Real Madrid, although he was not doing so badly, but who has the level to tell him no to Zidane?
James has amazing World Cup 2014 and it is a tournament brought him to the world, and to Real Madrid. James plays well with Ancelotti but since the appearance of Zidane, he lost his position in the club and had to move to Bayern Munich then Everton. Zidane help Real Madrid won 3 Champions League and a few La Liga so Perez does not have big issue with Zidane. Players have conflicts with Zidane have to leave the club first.

Ancelotti needs to test all his players in this preseason before making a final decision on who he wants and who he does not want at Madrid.Bale might appear to be his choice, because I still believe in his ability,.He just needs to try them first and see how they can go well with his game plan.
Bale and Ancelotti have sweet memory with each other. With what Ancelotti did in Everton, brought James to Everton and gave him an important position, put belief in James, I think Carlo will treat Bale very similarly.

https://www.lopp.net/bitcoin-information/recommended-wallets.html
Bitcoin Core (you need to prepare huge storage space in your disk), Electrum (it is very light), Wasabi (has Tor connection and CoinJoin transaction).

I don't recommend to store all of your bitcoin on platforms allow you to swap Bitcoin to other crypto. If you do it, use very small part of Bitcoin you are owning.
