I agree with you in principle.
The rise in the price of btc in these 10 years has been truly amazing and whoever was smart enough to just hodl it and not sell it could already make a lot of money.
It is very difficult to predict the future but I have a feeling that in the long run btc will continue to grow and in a period of about 5 years may reach a magical level of 1M $.
However, I do not recommend betting only on btc or cryptocurrencies, because there is always a risk, and I think there are also very good earning opportunities in real business.
Personally, I have invested part of the earned cryptocurrencies in a very promising business start up related to the development of new technologies, with the expected growth of up to 20 times.
I expect good results from all my investments 

Transfer rumours:

Manchester City are tracking Fiorentina's Serbia forward Dusan Vlahovic. The 21-year-old has scored 19 goals for club and country this season. There is no doubt that he is a great football talent, but will this young player withstand the pressure of great expectations in Manchester?
Barcelona have held talks with Manchester City about signing Spain forward Ferran Torres, 21, in January. Torres has scored nine goals and provided three assists in 28 Premier League games for City. He is a quality player, but does Barcelona have the finances to conclude this transfer?
Everton chairman Bill Kenwright has called an emergency board meeting, with the future of boss Rafael Benitez set to be discussed. Is Benitez getting fired and who will be the new coach?
Real Madrid are convinced they will sign Paris St-Germain's France forward Kylian Mbappe, 22, who is out of contract next summer.  Is it just a verbal promise or is there something more specific, some written agreement?
Barcelona's Netherlands midfielder Frenkie de Jong, 24, will not be leaving in January. De Jong has been linked with several clubs including Manchester City. Given Barcelona's financial situation, this is a bit of an unusual decision.

In fact, it will be easier for Barcelona to play because I heard that this match, due to the worsening situation with the coronavirus in Germany, will be played without an audience.
Each team can lose a few games, but that does not change the fact that currently Bayern is a better team than Barcelona and the favorite in this match.
Barcelona actually had a lot of luck in the match against Benfica but this time I think their chances of winning are very small.
Maybe defeat and relegation from the Champions League would be a good shock therapy for the whole club and a real opportunity for a major overhaul of the team and a new beginning .

Djokovic is the best tennis player in the world, but even he can't win alone, without the help of his teammates.
Even before the match between Croatia and Serbia, it was known that the first match between Gojo and Lajovic would be crucial for the victory.
It was already known in advance that the Serbs have little chance in doubles and that Cilic also has very little chance in the match against Djokovic.
However, in the expected final against the Russians, Cilic will finally have to contribute and win because the Russian team has two very good individual players.

Maybe it is so in the local sections of the forum if there are not enough members who can give merits but I think it is not so in the English part of the forum.
Personally, whenever I see a quality and constructive post, I will give merit and I will not even look at who the author of the post is, because it is completely irrelevant.
I'm sure that most other members of this forum also reward with merit every quality post regardless of who the author is.
Perhaps the problem is that your definition of quality post does not match the definition of quality post by most members of this forum.

Congratulations Dripstoil on your achievement!
In fact, I see that you will very quickly reach the member rank on this forum 
Your example is very good for other newbie members as well, because you have the right attitude on this forum and you show others how to progress on the forum.
I am glad to see that we have got a new, positive and constructive member of this forum 
Just keep going like this and you will quickly become a hero and a legendary member!

A zapravo sve ovo do sada izneseno u ovoj raspravi nije i neće biti puno relevantno na cijenu btc i eth u budućnosti.
Ono što je bitno su ''očekivanja'' jer na cijenu btc i eth trenutno najviše utječu vlasnici velikih investicijskih fondova, koji zapravo i ne razumiju kako točno funkcionira btc ili eth, ali se ''klade'' na buduću cijenu btc i eth i pokušavaju predvidjeti dugoročne trendove.
Pogledajte primjer Tesle.
Po svim tržišnim pokazateljima su daleko iza drugih velikih auto kompanija, gotovo stalno su u gubitku ali vrijede puno više od svoje konkurencije, iako proizvode puno manje automobila.
Jednostavno, Musk je dobro prodao svoju priču i stekao sljedbu vjernika koji protivno svakoj tržišnoj logici ulažu u njegovu ideju i viziju jer očekuju da će im se ta investicija jako isplatiti u nekoj dalekoj budućnosti.
S obzirom na veliki rast inflacije u EU, Americi i drugdje u svijetu, što će vjerojatno utjecati i na potrošnju i pad vrijednosti glavnih svjetskih valuta, veliki investitori traže altenativu ulaganju u valute i kripto valute tako privlače puno veću pažnju i interes.
Upravo će to ubuduće najviše utjecati na cijenu btc, eth i drugih kripto valuta a ne upotrebljivost ili neupotrebljivost btc i eth, cijena transakcija i sl.

So, these are the results of the draw of additional qualifications:

Semi-finals – Thursday 24 March 2022

Path A

Scotland vs Ukraine (20:45 CET)
Wales vs Austria (20:45 CET)

Path B

Russia vs Poland (18:00 CET)
Sweden vs Czech Republic (20:45 CET)

Path C

Italy vs North Macedonia (20:45 CET)
Portugal vs Turkey (20:45 CET)

Finals – Tuesday 29 March 2022

Path A

Wales / Austria vs Scotland / Ukraine (20:45 CET)

Path B

Russia / Poland vs Sweden / Czech Republic (20:45 CET)

Path C

Portugal / Turkey vs Italy / North Macedonia (20:45 CET)

My prediction of the final matches is as follows:
Scotland vs. Wales
Russia vs. Sweden
Portugal vs Italy

I think the hosts will have a big advantage in all these matches but of course surprises are always possible.
What are your predictions?

Koliko sam shvatio, sve će ići u fazama.
Prvo su testirali sustav, pa su ga uveli prvo za online narudžbe, pa će uskoro ići u veće Konzum prodavnice, pa onda i u one manje.
Konzum ti je veliki i jako tromi sustav i njima treba više vremena da implementiraju novi sustav, obuče sve blagajnice, oglase novosti u javnosti...
Bitno da je krenulo, a sada očekujem da reagiraju i Lidl, Kaufland, Billa... i ostali veliki trgovački lanci  

I think it is too early to make such predictions.
Both Italy and Portugal played poorly in the final of the qualifications and thus put themselves in a very difficult situation now.
The team that recovers sooner psychologically from the shock of playing in additional qualifications will have an advantage in the mutual meeting.
I personally would like Italy to go to the World Cup because they failed to qualify for the World Cup in Russia 2018 but it will be very difficult for them because they will have to play away in Portugal.

Barcelona is in a very difficult situation now and no longer depends only on itself but also on other clubs.
For Bayern, the match with Barcelona means nothing in terms of results and their coach may decide to rest some key players and thus maybe help Barcelona.
This is a key game of the season for Barcelona because if they fail to win second place in the group and continue to compete in the Champions League, it will be a huge psychological and financial shock for the whole club.
Realistically, the Europa League is a second-class and less important competition, which big clubs generally want to avoid if they can.

In fact, Real is known for wanting to have the biggest football stars in their team and that they will do everything to bring them to the club.
After Ronaldo's departure for the first time in a long time Real do not have such a football star and it is clear that they will do everything in the summer to bring either Mbappe or Haaland or both.
Mbappe already wanted to come to Real this summer, but PSG did not let him go, and it seems to me that Haaland would not mind coming to Real as well.
Big clubs always want to bring in the biggest football stars becase of fans and for marketing reasons, but the examples of PSG and Manchester City shows that this is not always enough to win the biggest trophies in European football.

Jeste li čuli najnovije vijesti?
Od danas se kriptom može kupovati i u Konzumu, za sada online ali uskoro će biti moguće i u prodavnicama širom Hrvatske, prvo u većim a onda i u svim prodavnicama u RH.
Evo link na cijelu vijest: https://www.poslovni.hr/hrvatska/konzum-i-electrocoin-brisu-granice-u-soping-odsad-i-s-kriptovalutama-4314884?fbclid=IwAR3ooHt2TpmwaY2mHF_p_rtoJXieApVUDh6YSdWavQYqveCzQDaazdjCLlQ

Moramo čestitati Škoriću i ekipi, radi jako dobar posao na popularizaciji kripta u općoj populaciji.
Ovaj dio mi se posebno sviđa:  

''Škorić kaže kako plaćanje kriptovalutama u Hrvatskoj tek počinje.
Osobno taj način plaćanja koristim na dnevnoj razini, od hrane i pića, goriva, ulaznica za koncerte do bijele tehnike i automobila.
Imali smo u Electrocoinu 20 puta više prometa nego u istom mjesecu prošle godine, a sigurni smo da će sada značajno rasti. Narednih tjedana očekuju nas nove jednako značajne suradnje”, najavio je Škorić.
U 2022. godinu zakoračit će, zaključuje, “gordo, s velikim planovima za Hrvatsku i još većim planovima za širenje u Europskoj uniji”.

Bravo ekipa, samo tako dalje.
Tko će prvi isprobati ovu novu mogućnost i kupiti nešto kriptom u Konzumu?  
Meni je osobno žao trošiti nešto za što vjerujem da će u 2-3 godine vrijediti puno više nego sada.
Kada osjetim da je došao pravi trenutak, onda će biti vrijeme za izlazak iz kripta i trošenje  

Ok I don't think we understood each other the best.
I actually wanted to say that there is one group of people who want to believe in promises of quick and easy earnings and who don’t believe  warnings from you and others.
I don't think they can be helped.
There is another group of people who are unsure and looking for information and answers and they can be helped.
I was primarily referring to the first group of people but your post and the warnings of other users will help other group, who still want to be informed first before making any decision.
I apologize if I wasn’t clear enough in the previous post.

It seems to me that Sonego was under too much pressure and simply couldn't withstand the burden of the great expectations of the whole nation.
For me, it is actually a surprise that Croatia went so far in this competition because our main player lost all our key matches.
I have never heard of these new players in the Croatian national team, but it's obvious that Croatian tennis has a great future.
Once again, it turned out that Cilic was simply no longer at the top level of tennis like a few years ago and his time was definitely over. It's time for some new players in the Croatian team.
Cilic has simply lost his self-confidence and faith in himself and is losing matches he used to win easily before.

I agree with you.
For top players like Mbappe, Messi, Ronsaldo or Haaland, a sporting motive is probably just as important as money.
Somehow it seems to me that Haaland could go to either Real or Manchester City and it will all depend a lot on which club Mbappe will eventually go to.
Both players are looking for new sporting challenges and only the Spanish or English football leagues can currently give them that.
I think Ronaldo could change the club again soon. I believe he now regrets not choosing Manchester City after all.

Thank you Ratimov on this topic, but unfortunately, I don't think it will be read by those for whom it is intended.
I think there will always be people who want to become financially free in an easier way, without effort and hard work, right now.
They may have heard that some big money can be made in the crypto and will look for the first opportunity to get involved in a project that promises big money.
I have been on the Internet for a very long time, I have participated in many projects and I have seen such things many times.
If they fail the first time, they will try again and again, and it will become a kind of addiction for them, a desperate need to make some big money overnight and without much effort and work.
Such people will not listen to your reasonable advice and will not ask themselves these questions:
If that person is so successful why does he need other investors and their money?
Why he actually wants to help other, completely unknown people?
Who exactly is that person, what are his references, contact information etc?
Is everything legal?
And many other questions.

Evo novih otvorenih mjesta u signature kampanjama.
Prva je Duelbits kampanja:


U ovoj se kampanji traži 25 postova minimalno, od toga najmanje 10 u gambling sekciji.
Lokalni postovi se broje, a kampanja traje već godinu dana.

Još jedna kampanja ima otvoreno mjesto:


Radi se o STake kampanji ali nije jasno da li će se birati između postojećih prijava ili se još mogu slati nove prijave.
I ovdje se traži 25 postova minimalno i od toga 10 postova u gamblingu.
Čini mi se da se lokalni postovi broje.
Sretno s prijavama!

Dakle,  slackovic je i dalje "neokrunjeni" kralj ovog dijela foruma a ja sam se "izborio" za drugo mjesto  
Kad pogledam našu statistiku od prije par godina i sad, pad u broju postova i aktivnosti je zaista brutalan.
Srećom pa smo se još davno prije izborili za naš lokal jer pitanje da li bi ga na temelju trenutne statistike uopće dobili.
Jedno vrijeme smo se stalno žalili da nemamo dovoljno merita i merit source-a na našem lokalu a kada smo ih konačno dobili ispada da više nikome ne trebaju meriti,  jer su stari članovi dostigli željene rankove a novih članova nema. 

Transfer rumours:

Manchester United believe Ralf Rangnick's expected arrival at Old Trafford will give them the advantage in the race to sign Norway striker Erling Braut Haaland, 21, from Borussia Dortmund next summer. Personally, I think for Haaland these 3 things will be much more important: money, money and money 
Fiorentina have put a £55m price tag on Serbia striker Dusan Vlahovic in a bid to hold off interest from Manchester United - but the 21-year-old is not expected to make any move in January. Is Vlahovic really worth that much money or will the Jovic case be repeated?
Real Madrid will not be signing Manchester United's France midfielder Paul Pogba next summer despite being heavily linked to the 28-year-old. With Zidane's departure, Real's interest in Pogba has obviously disappeared. Where will Pogba go now?
Paris St-Germain have no intention of letting Mauricio Pochettino leave for Manchester United halfway through the season, but they are open to negotiations at the end of the season. Who will be their new coach? Zidane? What do you think?
Barcelona playmaker Philippe Coutinho, 29, could be on the move to Newcastle in the January transfer window - although the Brazil player initially rejected a move to the Premier League club. Barcelona is in a big financial crisis and obviously has to get rid of a player with high salaries and a small player contribution.
