For the sixteenth time Harry Kane has scored Kasper Schmiechel.
I knew he'll surely score because he's got a good scoring record against him in the premier league.
Let's see if Harry Kane can beat Ronaldo to the Golden Boot.
Congratulations to England, reaching there First final since 1966.
My man and hero Kane:) I still think the penalty was at best soft,,, and he did take it quite poorly but he made up for it with the rebound. This man is a goalscoring machine and it is so nice to see his reel in the last game. Like Kane of old, smacking shots, cutting through balls. Sterling should be ashamed:) |

I think we have to say well done to Ashleigh Barty for taking this one and going to the final! I know even I myself backed Williams at first, but then injury and early KO just cleared the path for Barty BUT it was still an achievement nevertheless. If she completes it, it will be a first Australian to win in over 40 years!
Credit also to Kerber for getting so far!

My point of view is very clear, that is, I hope that more and more cultural industries and film industries will promote Bitcoin. Although technology changes lives, I hope that Bitcoin will be known to more and more people and will continue to be widely used. Global consensus, I believe this is not just my personal thoughts.
It will happen in time,,, do not you worry. Rememer, even the internet took a lot of time to be portrayed in the movies, and the early versions they showed were half accurate only (same as crypto now everyone is making one version for films but none of it really portrays the real stuff). No need to rush and force acceptance. It will happen if we keep using it regularly and as normal! |

LOL.. going by your definition, most of the coins in top 10 right now are "old coins". Bitcoin was invented in 2008 and was first mined in 2009. Ethereum ICO happened in 2014. Ripple's initial release was on 2012. In case of Cardano, the ICO started in 2015. Dogecoin was first introduced in 2013. So going by your definition, almost all of the top coins are "oldies". Among the top 10, I could find only Uniswap, that was created at a later date (created in 2018 by Hayden Adams and listed two years later in 2020).
If you are talking about coins that became obsolete after 2017, then there is a point. One example is TRX. Used to have a market cap of $15 billion. The current market cap is less than 1/4th of that.
Is it not a crazy thing that a project only a few years old can be considered old in this space? And Defi coins are even worse, if it is 2019 it is considered old and that is not even two years old! Just goes to show the hype industry of defi and how short their lifespans are. If you think TRX is obsolete now,,, How about Waves:) I feel sad every time I think about it! |

Maximalism: The opposite of minimalism; a tendency toward excess.
Bitcoin Maximalism has always been a contentious subject for many. Especially myself. The idea that one, and ONLY ONE, cryptocurrency can succeed is something that has been met with both acceptance and complete disbelief.
Some believe that we will see an unimaginably complex crypto ecosystem that is built on a plethora of algorithmic protocols. All working together to build a more cohesive, efficient, and safe society. However, there is no place for something like bitcoin. These people tend to view bitcoin as "outdated technology", "slow", and will compare it to the likes of Windows '95 while other "faster" cryptocurrencies will make bitcoin obsolete.
I personally think Bitcoin maximalism, like all idealogies, will eventually show that it cannot happen in practical life. Too many powers and too many different needs and wants,,, I always say practical because I know the world is made up of too many economic realities and disparities. I like the idea that algorithms work together, like an open and democratic economic system where Bitcoin is the foundation and the highways and everything else is the connector. That foundation may be obsolete but absolutely necessary. |

The current volatility makes bitcoin analysts confused, bro. They can still change views quickly when there is Bullish or Bearish. Multiple Indicators and metrics keep analysts in the Crypto market ever-changing. This could trigger the FUD in a different direction due to the reaction from the current market.
This period shows that the Bullish will continue to extend the consolidation until when. Obviously it can be confusing, some of the negative news outweighs the positive news. I think now everyone has an even bigger negative view.
Current volatility? Bitcoin has been sideways for quite a while now and trading in a tight range with 30k support and 35k resistance. I would say if this period is confusing them,,, what more other periods during extreme rallies and retracements? Analysts are always constantly changing depending on the numbers (and depending on how long or how deep they dig). There will never be a non-confused analysis;) |

For me the main critical issue is the userbase. If you have users you are fine. But defi is only attractive for speculators at the moment, right?
Yes, it is undeniable that Pump-Dump-Exit is a common phenomenon in DeFi today. We have observed many projects and learned some of their experience, hoping that our mechanism can solve these problems. I think the user base you mentioned is really important. We have already got in touch with some communities and hope they can get involved. Fortunately, at least we have a platform to try. But as I said,,, this is a direct result of the userbase. And that,,, is a direct result of the type of marketing done for most defi projects and altcoins which is token marketing. Which is why I said try to build on the concept to get a userbase of users. Now, this kind of token marketing, making it all about the token, attracts only speculators. Mechanisms will fail eventually, but use (utility) will win the day eventually:) |

It’s obviously very applicable in Bitcoin’s HODL-style investing, and he also addressed and encourged a dollar-cost-averaging strategy. BUT, he also said that an investor should “get in right in the first place”. Is the current market the right time to enter? I believe it’s an opportunity, but leave yourself more capital to average down because no one gets it in right unless you’re very lucky.
I never grow old of DCA, and whatever all our differing opinions here about Bitcoin, about where it is headed, about short and medium term,,, I think the one thing we can all agree on is that Bitcoin is a long play of many many years. And that makes DCA the best strategy for anyone at all. Peasants like me or us and experts who can sometimes be wrong. |

It feels more like a comet hitting the earth, leaving big pits. It seems that there are countless treasures waiting to be mined.
The greed of human nature, the inducement of big brothers, the participation of whales, all kinds of good news are flying all over the sky, but the result is just a place of chicken feathers.
Perhaps the sharp drop of Bitcoin and endless washings can calm more people down.
How do you think about this issue?
There will not be endless washings,,, one day the shitcoin market will not be able to grow and only Bitcoin and a few strong alts will be where people really use. Shitcoins will always be there along with whatever nonsense ICO stage but they will be like HYIP markets now. Ponzis that people stay away from and can only dupe people who deserve it. |

Stocking up is probably the best thing to do during this time that the market is in sideways because you have a discounted price for all the bircoin out there in the market. Plus it's a great filter for people who don't deserve to get a big profit because these times can make someone easily panic over the fact that the prices are going wild.
It really really does depend on what you are doing though. If you are holding or trading super long term then for sure, sideways is buying time, but not too much too or you got nothing left when the real dip happens. On the other hand, if you are a short termer then you keep wanting to make money from volatility even during sideways market periods. |

It was not even just Mancini,,, if I recall correctly Brendan Rodgers at Liverpool even tried to take him. It was weird to see naughty boys end up at Liverpool at one point like Luis Suarez as well,,, but I guess it did not work for him even if it worked for Suarez.
And now he has another second chance, after many second chances. I still feel he was a good guy deep inside, let us hope for a late revival?
So far, i remember, AC Milan is considered quite successful in changing Balotelli's attitude, while with Milan, Balotelli rarely causes problems, although there are some, but not as often as at other clubs. Luckily, there are still clubs that are interested in Balotelli, even Demirspor is also lucky because it is rumored that all of Balotelli's salary will be paid by the Sponsor. Maybe this will be good for him, if he can maintain his attitude and can bring his club to stay in the league next season. Maybe by now he is too old to be his regular crazy antics guy and if he changes his own attitude he can still enjoy many more years of good football, maybe even return to Italy or another big league if his talents and age are still for a good price. Such a shame for him and who knows, if he is on good form with his new team he gets another call up?  |

Sorry for myself that none of those left are alive for me,,, I took the Portugal one so early so of course my bet died a long time ago (what a terrible way it turned out to be. Does anyone here have both these specials still active? Cannot believe I did not take Italy at 16x! Bet many Azurri bettors are praying now:) |

I can hardly believe it, but Federer was now clearly defeated in 3 sets (The last set is very suspect, injury?)
I watched whole 3rd set and I don't think there was injury involved. Hurkacz played very well after wining that 2nd set, he was full of confidence and he hit some very good shots. Federer was just the opposite, he played mediocre and gave away few cheap points but that is it. I would feel bad if this was his last match. Not nice to go away with 6:0, better to win some small ATP 250 in Basel or something like that and then call it quits. Yes,,, I think we have to give it to Hurkacz. I maybe feel Federer will be disappointed in the last set and for sure I hope he plays one more GS,,, but maybe to gain more fitness and confidence in ATP as you say. This would be a terrible way to end his GS career, sad for a lot of us who watched him in his glory days. |

if you want to buy coins other than bitcoin then I suggest you to look at the conditions of the exchange, when the conditions of the exchange place are red because many coins have collapsed then it is definitely the right moment to buy altcoins that have potential and have high trading volume, while if it returns green then you can sell it for a profit.
Or maybe just ignore the exchanges other than the ones who've been around for a long time? I am talking about Bittrex, and Binance, for those not really into Coinbase and stuff (or like me who cannot even really access those types of exchanges because of location). I think coins themselves are not really good on whichever exchanges but yeah, if they list on Coinbase,,, they will probably be around for a while. |

England are in the final wow and Harry Kane got a field goal as the penalty was saved but he got the rebound. I do feel from watching the highlights Kane seemed really good, he even actually deserved the assist for the own goal.
But luck is with the English. They got the own goal and got the rebound. Can Italy survive this luck?

Ok, so you guys start off so nice with a nice antideluvian continent and mythology etc but then nothing else is reflected in this storyline:) I hate defi and I think most of it are nonsense,,, but I love a good story and I really liked some concepts out there,,, the cake and syrup lines of BSC's Pancakeswap are getting interesting. Who is writing your stuff? We wanted to make the project more interesting, so we thought of the concept of Mu. DeFi brings many possibilities, like looking for the treasure of Atlantis. But in essence, the DeFi mechanism will determine the sustainability of the project. If you have any suggestions for the mechanism in the White Paper, I hope you can tell us and we will seriously consider it. I think the mechanism is fine,,, this is defi after all but you really need to look into this sustainability aspect if you are serious about it. So many different forms of token economics have failed to bring a token past even 12 months of stability. For me the main critical issue is the userbase. If you have users you are fine. But defi is only attractive for speculators at the moment, right? |

Some countries now ban the use of Bitcoin, or banks restrict cryptocurrency transactions, resulting in an increase in the number of long-term Bitcoin holders.
For example, in China, China prohibits the use of Bitcoin. If I were Chinese, I might be more anxious. Some ways can be found to avoid being caught by the Chinese government. I will consider putting it in a cold wallet. In this case, you can only choose to hold for a long time. After all, there is no exchange to trade,
So will anyone give up Bitcoin?
If you was a Chinese person, then you would have been anxious a long time ago even in 2013 when China did its first crackdown on BTC. Guess what, every crackdown the Chinse just move on and do business somewhere else. Look no further than wechat trading groups for Bitcoin or if you want,,, see Changpeng Zhao the Chinese CEO of Binance who publicly talks about crypto every day. |

DeFi protocols VS CeFi platforms
The crypto lending market is constantly developing! But let’s try to figure out why that is. Why are decentralized financial protocols better than centralized ones when it comes to lending?
Now the problem is that everyone is talking about centralized and decentralized comparisons on cost,,, but nobody is talking about what people REALLY care about and that is safety and confidence. Talk about Defi rugpulls and why they happen all the time and again with the same teams behind them. Why? There is no accountability in defi and not even a need to PROVE the decentralization (which is often not even true!). |
