The chances of African countries qualifying for the World Cup will be difficult to get to the last 16.  we can see the match schedule of opponents from African countries is quite heavy.  senegal vs netherlands, portugal vs ghana.  it is very clear that the opponents for the two African countries are very heavy when viewed from the statistics.  but I prefer to favor two countries. 
germany
argentina

Two favorite countries that will become champion candidates.
First world cup is going to be played in this region, so conditions are going to have very important role for all teams which team is going to adopt this can go through easily for this I am going to support teams from South America because these are having same conditions instead of European countries but still nothing is sure about this even because any result can happen and any team can knockout as we have good experience in last world cup which was held in Russia.

For me Brazil, Argentina, Germany and France are teams to watch as they are usually best and have quality players but Belgium and England are also not bad with any upset can occurred and these can take place for last round matches.

It is true that mentors are needed to guide us so we don't make wrong decisions, because usually mentors are more experienced and can direct us when trading. Most importantly we need to find a trusted mentor, because nowadays there are so many frauds, so we really have to be careful in choosing a mentor. I suggest looking for a mentor from a trading course on a popular and trusted platform. Although the cost is quite high, most importantly the mentor can be trusted and can make us understand how to trade properly.
Mentor and influencers are different things. If you know a person that helps you personally, and either do not help anyone else, or maybe a few other people with you and you chat with them and you ask questions and they answer and basically it is a friendly environment then it's fine and they are mentors.

But, if we are talking about some twitter influencers that talks about crypto, shows charts, indicators, whatever, and tells you what to buy, when to buy it, at what price, and when you should get out etc etc, then it is an influencer and it is not a person that should be trusted with it. Know the difference between a mentor and an influencer then you could find someone easier.
2183  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC back at 20K. Imagine who sold at 17.7K. on: June 24, 2022, 06:53:47 PM
Some people never learn. This is not the end of the world. BTC has the capacity to grow like 50% in 1 week so people should learn that every drama is temporarily in the crypto world. Poor naysayers. Poor Peter Schiff. Such unhappy people. All the gold still doesn't make them happy. Cheers to you all happy Bitcoiners Cool
As per the subject, there is no reason to sell at 17k or even at 20k. We are very near to the bottom and this is not a wise decision to sell at thewe low prices.
Wise people buy at these prices and not sell. A month ago no one could have dreamt to see bitcoin below 20k. A lifetime opportunity to buy now.
Except maybe to those who have bought by the time btc drop at under 17k, you know those who are doing short term trades as they are still in profit but if they aren't like that then there is no point of selling only to incur a big loss. Instead what should they be doing now is purchasing some more bitcoins since this can be their last chance as the price is recovering once again.

Last month I think the price is already at 30k or under than it, so people already expects that we can go as low as 20k. It happened for real but with an extra bonus since the price dropped lower than their target. Nowadays this price range seem to be normal but better safe than sorry.

Franck Kessie is going to be released in one week. Zlatan Ibrahimovic's condition is still unknown while there is only one week left on his contract as well. Considering these things Milan's priorities are really a centre-forward and a midfielder. As for a defender, it would also be nice too to sign a strong defender. They need to increase their power not only offensively in the end. I wonder with whom they are going to fill Kessie's place. Kessie is a good midfielder and there are some big teams thinking of signing him.
Zlatan is probably staying, he may get a discount or something but at the end of the day he is going to stay. That has been the chatter at least, I can't guarantee anything in the world of football of course but it is going to be more like a Milan until retirement type of situation for him. They do need a midfielder, they are going to need that if they want to keep it going, but a pure striker that will score a lot is something they haven't had in a while.

Between Zlatan and Giroud, they had good talent that is old, but they really need someone that would make it a lot better for them to both have without injuries and also young enough to not get tired.
Sometime back I read Zlatan is going to end his career at Milan and now things are going for this as well because until now he is not announcing anything about his future and still part of this year's champions which mean he is still going to stay here like player which is good for them in very serious situation where they have no money for buying players, and they need to defend their title after few weeks against teams like Inter and Juventus which are having good finances and buying most skilled and quality players for next season.

If Zlatan is going to leave or have any other plans then surely it's going to hurt defending champions because they are not active in transfer market, and they have good combination of Giroud and Zlatan which give them very exciting results in last season.

Is Christophe Galtier suitable for the PSG team? He is the coach of the France team. But in the Euro, we have seen the poor performance of France. There is no chance to say that the French team is weak. Their team has lots of talented and star players. Yet their performance was poor. There is a lack of coordination among the players. PSG's problem is the same. Despite having a lot of talented players on the team, they are not able to play well as a team. If Christophe Galtier cannot succeed with the French team, then he will also fail with the PSG team.
I am feeling Christophe Galtier is going to be start good but after having some lessons from history he can improve his performance in Champions League, but it's not easy and going to take sometime because with too many star players and having some special treatment for Mbappé it's not easy for any coach to give better results he needs to settle a good combination which can give him good results.

Many were feeling Zidane can solve their problems but as he check Mbappé contact and special treatment case he rejected coaching offer from this club and now waiting for France national team which is going to play World Cup and after this mega event their coach's contact is going to end.

Of course, the hope for bitcoin is that it will be more and more adopted by large institutions and other countries can legalize bitcoin so that people are not afraid to violate government rules. Although many countries do not yet have clear provisions regarding bitcoin. But I'm sure as time goes by many other countries will imitate El Salvador to legalize bitcoin because so far what El Salvador has implemented has made several countries try to legalize bitcoin in their country.
Yes, definitely many countries will legalize bitcoin in their environment to enable their citizens enjoy what other countries that made bitcoin legalized are enjoying in their various countries. Now that the price of bitcoin has dropped down to a level where poor people can buy and hold for better future to come, which many countries will use this opportunity to create a good environment for their citizens to be part of this good news that is about to happen before the end of this year 2022. Bitcoin has improved many countries that made it legalized some years ago which it can still improve the countries that are about to make it legal in their countries.
It seems that other countries may be considering following El Salvador's lead, even before the crypto market slump that started a few months ago, Central Africa had been trying to legalize bitcoin in its country.
That is expected since bitcoin is not a new thing anymore and it is now starting to become mainstream. Many countries already see its potential if what it can do help innovate one's country, That is why they are now hurrying up, trying to become the earliest country to make btc as a legal tender.

Central Africa have followed the footsteps of El Salvador but I only wonder why it isn't being talked about that much, very different when El Salvador adopts btc as a legal tender where it stayed in the headlines for such a long time but I guess that's because it was the first? Other than Central Africa, there's also another one but I forget its name. There are now three of them currently.

The full List of Betting Strategies you can find here: http://sportstatist.com/betting-strategies/
when say a betting system that is your own way off strategies of betting So You win again true there's speculation and their measurement game currently people this time around predict the game because of the way and what they also have and what the pass through and and observe for all the competition some people play game with the odd of the game and they win the game, so the system you predict game and then win the game might not be the same thing with me
You can create your own betting system but there's also an existing betting system that are followed by the gamblers. One of the popular betting systems that is still being used up until now is the martingale method but there are also different variations of martingale and the op missed to add them.

Having such system might increase your chances to win but some things still need to be applied like stopping and withdrawing once you already earn some profit because these betting systems are not designed to give us an unlimited chances to earn but it's okay if your system is different from the rest. You know what works best for you.
2188  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A Glimpse on Ireland's First Ever Gambling Regulation Bill on: June 22, 2022, 06:18:38 PM
To Discuss:
It is notable that part 5 of the said bill is all about mitigating problem gambling and protecting minors against gambling exposure.  If you are to evaluate the plans stated in Part 5 of the bill, will it be effective in the mitigation of the Gambling Problem? Will it effectively protect minors from the influence of the gambling environment?
Effective in a way that there's no more minors that will play gambling? I don't know if that is guaranteed but pretty sure it will help lessen or mitigate the problems of minors being involved on the said activity because the lists are quite good and I can see there that they focus mainly on reducing or totally cutting the credit/debit card as a source of payment because they are also aware that it is the root cause on why a minor can gamble because they can just steal it secretly fro their parents.

Not only in gambling actually but there are reports where minors also use their parents' cards to purchase items from their video games or on those so-called loot boxes.

So, it seems that PSG is aiming for Galtier after all. He did overperform throughout his career, but mostly with clubs that weren't challenging for trophies.
He did manage to win 2 of them (league cup with St. Etiene and that totally unexpected league title with Lille), but if he becomes the new PSG coach it will be his first job in which every game matters.

If PSG chooses him, it will cost them 20 million Euros (10 mil. compensation to Nice and over 10 mil. compensation to Poch and his team).

It will be really interesting to track his career if he gets this job. I say he deserves a shot.
OH COME ON! You gotta be kidding me, they can't get Galtier. They just spent 400 million on Mbappe, and they are going to get a second tier ligue 1 manager instead of pochettino? Everyone expected them to get Zidane, and even if you can't get Zidane, offer Ancelotti 25 million a year or something, do something silly, do something stupid, just get someone for whatever money you can.

This is like buying a lambo and then putting a beetle engine into it and nothing more, makes no sense at all. PSG needs to realize that they can't just half-ass anything, the manager needs to be the best there is and so far Galtier provided no proof of being awesome manager, not bad but not what was needed.

If you look at Ibrahimovic maybe yes, he still has a pretty good physicality playing in Serie A. But to play in the EPL or a fast league maybe he can't adapt. There are not many players who can still survive at the age of 40. There are even many players who retire young because they can't maintain a diet and physique.
As for the current Di Maria I think it is still pretty good to compete in Serie A if any club is interested in him.
Ibrahimovic is one of several players who are able to play at a high level even though he has reached the age of 40, it is not easy to steal the attention of elite clubs when a player has reached 37-40 years, especially his position as a striker. His experience and sharpness in scoring goals is still reliable, he is still able to maintain his performance for another 2 years, especially in Serie A. The Premier League is not the place to attack 40-year-olds. where they rely more on physicality and sharpness, While Serie A is known for its relaxed style of play.
There is no doubt Ibrahimović is a legendary player but now as you already mention he is 40 which is not suitable for soccer even he is super fit and able to play some but as we already watch in last season he was mostly injured or not able to play full matches, so it's better time for him to change his role and try to manage in coaching or some other thing in soccer because with this all he can face some dilemma which is possible for any person specially when you are playing soccer.

Mostly after 37 players try to leave this game because they feel it's better for them and their body, but he is still enjoying which is not bad because he is physically amazing player but as I already mention he can't play as he was few years back but if he is able then he can play part-time in this season then surely he needs to give himself better favor for his health.
2191  Economy / Economics / Re: Would you like to become a co-owner of a decentralized world bank? on: June 21, 2022, 03:44:25 PM
I would like a business to use the blockchain and all the advantages that this gives, and I think that it would be much better than becoming a co-founder of such a bank. Because you can integrate different useful things together. Fortunately for my employees, with the help of Pandadoc, it became possible to implement a different level of document management using new software. If we add to this all the advantages of the blockchain system, then it was possible to make products much better than now
To become the owner of your cell in the world bank, where everyone is independent and independent, free to conduct their own business independently, benefiting not only themselves, but all owners of their cells, I think this business deserves attention.
                      



This bank cannot be bankrupted, so your financial assets are protected and liquid.

It is still in fiat world, and we are looking for a crypto one, or at least I am looking for one. I would love to have a bank, like regular old bank idea and nothing weird, but instead of fiat just with crypto and nothing more. I would love to have a bank where I would put my bitcoins in, each month when I earn my salary, and then I would have a debit card, maybe a credit card if I have high score, or a loan all in crypto and they would have some signatures and collateral and so forth like regular banks as well.

There could be some people who default, but at the end of the day there could be some who won't and if the default rate is low, then they will profit and make a ton of profit plus they could get a lot of money when bitcoin goes up too.
2192  Economy / Speculation / Re: It goes same way people never learn btc 30k on: June 20, 2022, 09:45:03 PM
Currently, the price of bitcoin is trading in the $19k-$20k area friends and the downward trend in bitcoin prices is still continuing. In fact, the price of bitcoin had plunged to the position of $17k a few weeks ago although now the price of bitcoin has managed to rise again to the level of $20k.
I would say "down trend" is not wrong, but not perfectly true as of right now neither. We were at around 18k and reached to 20k+ just recently, so that was a "recovery". I am not saying that we are going up and doing awesome now because of this, but I won't say that it is doing terrible neither because it is recovering even if just a slight bit.

This is why I believe that we should be focusing a bit more towards making money by buying right now and not considering what will be the "next" stage of crypto, think of the next one after the next ones next ones next one. Yes it sounds weird but that is exactly what you need, buy now, let it go up, and don't sell, watch it go down again, and wait for it to go up again and repeat this a few times before you sell at the top.

...Im planning to buy btc price around: 19500$ at the time of writting..

Making purchases contrary to the global trend is a bad decision when investing. The fact that the price has broken through the high of 2017 and is trading under it does not inspire confidence that there has been a market reversal. Therefore, I think that soon you will need the remaining 50% of stablecoins for DCA.
The trend now is bearish. Everyone is afraid and worrying but isn't that a perfect time for buying? And there's even a saying/quote about that. Situations like this gives a motivation or good amounts of confidence for someone to purchase a bitcoin because they think this is the lowest that we can get as the price have been dipping this far.

There is going to be a market reversal that soon going to happen because that's how this market works, and I think it already started since the chart is green again and the price is back at 19k from the 18k fall yesterday. The op's strategy is nice. Better if we have a back up funds in case unexpected things can happen.
2194  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: No matter how low BTC falls, 1 BTC is still 1 BTC and there are only 19M coins on: June 20, 2022, 05:56:24 PM
This is something people (mostly newbies probably) seem to forget.

Nothing is permanent and BTC will recover. It's not the first crypto winter and certainly not the last. Life is made of ups and downs.

People think they lose money so they sell for crappy fiat. They actually lose when they sell and buy the crappy fiat. Look at inflation, it kills your fiat money every day.

1 BTC is still 1 BTC no matter the price. It's the best warranty for your future. There is no pension that will ever give you that. Think long term.
What about that 19m coins on your title? Did you forgot to explain it or what? I though there are 21m coins (supply of btc) or you mean this was the remaining btc left? It still seems not right because btc is now 13yrs old and with that duration there is only 2 btc that have used/consumed? Isn't that that too low.

Nothing is permanent in the world, that might be true but it can also mean that btc will dispensary soon? And maybe this bear is the start of it but I hope not as it is still early and all the 21m coins haven't mined yet. Not all that sells, think they lose but they sell for a better purpose and some of the are still in profit since they bought their btc lower than the current price.
2195  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Notice that while BTC & ETH fall, Doge is Stable on: June 19, 2022, 09:56:16 PM
At the time of writing this doge/btc is 313 sats.    Anybody who has followed this value historically knows what I am speaking about.  If you do not, start researching alt/btc markets, which, imo is the only one that counts if you want to increase your BTC stack.   While ignoring fiat.
What has happened before, doesn't mean it will happen again. I am not saying this for any bull or bear reasons, I am not a person that claims to know what the prices will do, maybe it will go up a lot, or maybe it will crash even further and I wouldn't know.

All I meant to say is that the price of bitcoin will never go down like crazy just because we are talking about something that has happened before, it may happen again or it may not happen again and we should not make investments based on what has happened before. This could be about doge, it could be about anything else, and it could be about up or down, none of that matters because historical patterns doesn't always repeat itself again and again.

Thinking of trying them, does anyone been able to cashout more than 5 BTC in 1 go?
Just FYI, at the moment although there is a way to deposit with btc but unfortunately there is no option for you to withdraw in BTC. You can do it with bank transfer or if you prefer crytpo then you can withdraw with USDT (TRC20). As explained as ryzaadit above, you may withdraw big amount as long as you are higher level VIP account (Platinum at least). To be Platinum VIP, your total deposit within a month should be at least 600M IDR or around 2BTC.
I know binance are also in a problem of btc withdrawals but they provide some fixes like you can withdraw your btc on other chains. Is this site experiencing the same thing? But if not and this really how it works ( can depo btc but can't withdraw) then they should change or rename their title and remove that btc word as that can only confuse the gamblers and can cause them to experience a problem like their btc can get stuck on this casino as they only like btc and they don't want other coins.

The rules of their vip is also different from the others. Usually on other casino the withdrawal limits are the same for all vip ranks but you might only need to do a kyc if you are withdrawing a really huge amount.

Lewandowski is just waiting for the time to leave Bayern Munich, now Lewandowski has expressed his interest in leaving, so his wish is realized or not is still very much dependent on Bayern Munich decision and also Barcelona courage in paying the price set by Bayern Munich now, I don't think if Lewandowski and Mane will play together because they are two players who have the same criteria, besides that with the acquisition of Mane by Bayern Munich now, of course, Munich will hear every offer that comes in from other teams if it is in accordance with the price they want, because Munich of course will not want to lose if next season lewandowski goes for free.
There is a good chance Lewandowski could stay for another season, because there is absolutely nothing that keeps him out for the next year and he will play a lot and earn a lot at the same time plus Bayern doesn't have a replacement yet neither.

I believe that the best thing Bayern can do right now is start looking for an alternative player that will replace Lewandowski before they could get a deal for Lewandowski. This way they will know how much they spent, and how much they need for it to make a sense. If you buy a great striker for the next 5-8 years and spend 50 million on him and pay him 5 million a year, then maybe sell Lewa for around 35-40 range? or even 60 if you could.

Financial problems are still a frightening specter for a number of teams. Yes it is a difficult factor to solve, the impact on their form of performance in the competition. All teams have to learn from some of the teams that ended up being completely bankrupt because of this, they had to be good at managing their finances even from a long time ago. And must really be held by people who are professionals.
Financial problem is not just a problem for clubs but it is one for every sector. So it does have an impact on the teams as well, when the rates are high, the debt means you need to pay a bigger portion of it, when the economy is bad, customers (fans) do not pay as much etc etc there are many reasons and bad stuff.

We won't be seeing too many high priced moves for example. Because, nobody really has that type of money anymore. Even getting a loan from a bank became harder and let me tell you, football clubs get loans like candy normally. So, it is not going to be easy for ANY team, including even Real Madrid, but it is harshest for Barcelona for sure.

Well seems like the FIA put a rule so Mercedes need to raise the floor, lets see how bad this impact in their car.
-skip-
It looks like Mercedes got a completely different result for which it fought - after all, it was them who complained the most and now, in order to fulfill the FIA directive, they will have to take some design decisions that will reduce vertical shaking and obviously reduce the speed of the bollide. To be honest, I am very surprised by such a reasonable decision by the FIA, I wonder if Mercedes will honestly carry it out or sacrifice the "health of the pilots" about which they were so worried about for results.
I would say that it would be better for them for sure. What would you prefer to have A)Pilots that will get injured but faster car that may get results while doing it or B)Slower car that doesn't hurt any of the drivers at all?

I would prefer to keep my pilots health to be fair, not like they would fall to bottom, they were doing this exact thing at the start of the season and they were still in points, which means that they may or may not be 5th and 6th or whatever, or get a podium, but they will get points and keep on going strong, not like they can win the season anymore anyway, it is obvious they lost, so it is better to find a way while keeping safety.

round1 was created for professional blockchain users to play before its public launch.
you can connect your meta mask and buy a chance on the website.
also, etherscan link is shared to access the contract directly.
What do you mean by "professional blockchain users"? Do you mean people who can read smart contracts? Because given the lack of information and poor design of the website and the announcement thread, I doubt anyone will dare to make a deposit unless he knows Solidity and can read smart contracts to verify if it's legit or no and to understand how it exactly works.
Why did you choose the ethereum network, why didn't you opt for another chain which has lower fees?
This is sad so it means most of us here cant participate on the game because we aren't professionals in the blockchain field but isn't that a disadvantage? Because, they are too picky when choosing customers. How can they earn more money that way, and how can their gambling site become successful.

It's only funny that he seeks for professional players but he didn't make his website and ann thread professional but it's obvious that he chose eth because professionals like it more. We know the quality of eth when compared to other cheaper chains out there. They won't care about the high fee because they can always afford it.
