With this search engine we can't come to the conclusion about any form of trend change in specific region. It is just the indication that global population is looking for bitcoin and associated form of investment. We can't consider this for any of the market changes, because people try to find what is bitcoin through their own language. So, there'll be variation in the result. To my understanding countries holding the most number of users will be having the highest count. It is quite surprised there is only one Asian country among the list.
2342  Economy / Gambling discussion / Hard earned money - Busted in seconds on: April 30, 2022, 01:59:56 AM
It was almost two months hard earned money. Got busted in few minutes. I don't know why I wasn't able to have me within the limits. Just started with a $3 bet, but it went upto $98 and ended with empty wallet. This is completely unlucky, because every bets were placed to roll above 20 which means the winning probability is quite high. Anyhow I wasn't in control and I didn't follow the rule gamble what you can afford to loss. It was a money saved to repay a debt. Now once again the interest needs to be paid so to manage the debt for some more time. Unlucky me  Sad Sad Sad

Punjab Kings vs Super Giant

This match is going to be a 50/50 in my opinion because both teams are coming off a win against two bottom teams on the table. So that obviously does not give us much chance of separating these two teams. But I believe that if Shikhar Dhawan can play good innings and the other Batmen can support him around PBKS has a really good chance of winning.

It seems like players are now exhausted because of too lengthy IPL schedule. Now we are seeing score of 150 in almost every match. Anyways, LSG just won th match by 20 runs. Man of the match is still not announced. IMO it can be de kock for his blistering inning of 46 runs or Mohsin khan for his 3 wickets spell.
The schedule is similar as the previous seasons, the addition of two teams have caused the increase of few more matches. Every team is getting break between the matches. No matches are scheduled on the consecutive days. So, this isn't the reason. After watching the match, I'm much confused. The major turn happened with the wicket fall of Livingston, which is an unwanted shot at that moment.

These people never do research, and just because they lack control over the people's money find ways to keep them restricted. People too believe in such statements without analysing the truth. In particular the people believe in media and doesn't do their own research. The estimated amount of money laundered globally is around $800 billion - $2 trillion in the form of USD. The same when compared with bitcoin which is around $8.6 billion and this is a 30% increase this year. All these years this is what happening, but politicians always tries misdirecting the people.
2345  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Klay Thompson @51 for NBA Finals MVP. on: April 28, 2022, 10:38:07 PM
Thus far, I believe that Klay Thompson is the most consistent on the big 3 of the Warriors. The defense was obviously focused on Curry and that will make Thompson open because he is always the first option if Curry would passed, as a result, he will generate more points easily.

So I see the odds, and it's 51, IMO, that's very tempting.

The question is, is it worth taking it?

I would put 20 dollars or in, just to be sure, the odds are great and the ball is round, anything could happen in the court. You have a good reason to bet on Thompson, I think it is a good offer. However my option is Curry, even though he will be heavily guarded, he can manage it somehow.

Good luck, but please check the present odds because it dropped a bit, if you were able to get them when I posted it, you might enjoy a higher odds but of course it's still very attractive. The last game of the Warriors in the round 1 looks Curry is going to win the Finals MVP if the Warriors will be champ, but who knows, right?
Curry have made the most points and it looks like the attractive odd is lost. There is a big difference in the points between Thompson and Curry and this makes Curry to be the MVP. Such high odds are very rare with this games and better luck next time. The match winning have happened out of a small difference 102 - 98.

reading that there are more slot machines than people in Australia I understand their concern but I doubt they'll be able to "phase out" the slot machines in the community. what I think they should have is stricter regulations for gambling or at least where the machines should be placed. trying to abolish slot machines altogether just won't happen and is just wishful thinking.
More slot machines is surely a problem. According to a survey data from 2021 it is found that Australia on the top of most addicted gamblers in the world losing an average of $1288. In specific 40% of Australians gamble in the daily basis. This is a big number considering the population of around 26.5 million. As mentioned going with strict regulations is good than getting into complete abolishing of the machines. It is the right moment for the government to act wise and keep its citizens under control.

The bitcoin adoption around the globe keeps increasing. If adoption in El Salvador is  failed one, why more countries show interest on cryptocurrency adoption. More small countries legalise bitcoin as legal tender following El Salvador. Surely the new comers won't come directly, they'll analyse and further enter the market. In that way I find Central African Republic's adoption of bitcoin an example. Following that Panama, a latin american country have passed a bill that will regulate cryptocurrency usage.

The bill has to be signed by the President to be a law. If the law gets passed the acceptance of cryptocurrencies from businesses and the usage of cryptocurrencies by the residents gets legalised. However no clear information has got revealed on the usage of bitcoin even when the law is being passed as the country has got its Panamanian balboa and US dollar in usage.
2348  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: HODL, HODL, HODL when can one actually sell Bitcoin? on: April 28, 2022, 06:25:46 PM
Whether you hold or "hodl" your bitcoins or sell them is entirely up to you.  There is no hard-fast rule that states you must do this or do that in order to sell that exists, so you do what you have to do.  That being said everyone is always saying "hodl" because that is how we will drive up the value of bitcoin.  By selling bitcoin  you are driving the value down. So this is why.
Holding cryptocurrency is not that is mandatory to hold, but the reasons of holding for long time. Is because of profit and lose. If you hold coin for long time, the opportunity of having good benefits of the coin is close. Why if you buy and sell immediately you can make big profit or small profit and at times it lands by getting lost of your coin. That is the point why people like to hold coins and is not Bitcoin alone but some other cryptocurrency
Holding isn't mandatory, but the benefits of the same is big. Almost every cryptocurrency user have experienced it. It is suggested to hold, based on the growth happened in the market with time. If you're good in trading, then one can make good profit out of the fluctuation. Here very few will be successful with their indepth knowledge and observation about different cryptocurrencies. Majority just consider it an investment and keeps hold. Here also users get lucky to profit in short term as well as in long term.

I don't think BCCI will made decision based on IPL performance otherwise Rohit Sharma will definitely lose his spot as a captain. RCB are not in a bad position as they are still at number 5 slot. Apart from kohli RCB have talented players like  Faf du Plessis, Maxwell and Hazlewood that's y kohli performance doesn't matter much.
Bangalore hasn't won the matches for the performance of Kohli. RCB has lost some games as he didn't play well. Faf du Plessis and Glenn Maxwell won't be in the Indian cricket team to backup Kohli's bad performance. IPL is the place where players play freely without much pressure. Kohli is playing badly in the IPL now. Rohit Sharma has played better than Kohli. BCCI will take Kohli as a key batsman in Indian team. The chance will be low for Kohli to stay in the T20 world cup squad if BCCI find better player than him by observing the performance of IPL.
I don't think Virat Kohli will be taken away from the T20 World Cup squad. IPL is considered as a platform through which talented players were identified, but that doesn't mean the experienced will be kept aside when someone perform better than them. Playing in an IPL and playing in an international T20 have got much difference. So, new players won't easily adopt to international matches. Atleast for this reason experienced players will be opted than new ones.
2350  Other / Archival / Re: Why has bitcoin adoption failed in El Salvador? on: April 27, 2022, 07:12:40 PM
Nayib legalized bitcoin as a legal tender but not with its freedom. Instead of teaching its citizens about the basic technicalities of bitcoin, the government introduced the Chivo centralized wallet which meant the population was directed to remain in government control from the start. I had predicted that they would fail that way, and the initial sign was a problematic wallet which was a little frustrating.
The wallet is problematic in one way, but it was meant to create awareness among the common people about the usage of bitcoin providing $30 free. We can't state the bitcoin adoption a failure in El Salvador. It is almost 7-8 months since the bitcoin adoption happened in El Salvador, which means we're getting into conclusion in a very fast manner.

Based on the data provided by OP, there is lack of usage of Chivo wallet, majority haven't downloaded it, very little businesses around the country have begun to accept bitcoin. Most of the businesses that accept bitcoin too is converting it to USD within a short time. So, different factors indicating that there is no big movement within the country as per the plan. Surely this is a success in the long term.
2351  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Klay Thompson @51 for NBA Finals MVP. on: April 26, 2022, 11:32:21 PM
Given that the Warriors will win the championship, you have a big chance to win your bet as it will only be between Curry and Thompson who will be chosen as the MVP. With that 51.00 odds is very sweet especially if you will put a decent amount, a $100 for example would already give you a $5,100.
Even in the previous match both Curry and Thompson had a close point count. Curry have taken 33 points and Thompson have taken 32 points. Both were the most valuable players of the team and this confirms there is increased chance of winning the bet. For such a close competence having odds @51 is really big. Atleast for this reason tomorrow's match needs to be watched.

By now two months and two days have got over. The war continues with regular updates being provided by the news agencies. As of now the war is getting more aggressive with the sending of arms to Ukraine by USA. If I'm not wrong USA needs to make business and it is using the opportunity. Russia have warned USA on sending war arms to Ukraine. Another thing there is talks that Russia has been losing and Ukraine is succeeding. There is nothing as losing and succeeding, the people are dying, the economy is experiencing the worst, and more negative things are happening. Even after different stages of talks nothing has come to an end. Lets pray this should not get carried to the next month.

There is nothing as best way. For now of is good to find altcoins that are in good position. Just analyse the altcoins, you'll get to know about the market conditions and the growth and other moves. Until now god have provided with a much better life than many other people. Be thankful to god and invest on altcoins which are priced below $5.

The ongoing year is much on NFT than altcoins. So along with the altcoins having few NFTs seems to be the best for the year.

Kieron Pollard, the West Indies captain and allrounder, announced his retirement from international cricket. A lot of candidates are in line to fill Pollard's shoes. We had a fantastic time watching you work. Have a happy retirement from international cricket. While there is controversy surrounding Pollard, he did not promote national cricket. Instead, he put his best effort into franchise leagues around the world. He could have served the West Indies for many years! Sadly, his time is up.
His 15-year international career has come to an end as this will make rooms for the young but deserving veterans that will carry the game forward on to the next level. His efforts and all his hardworks were greatly honored and could expect to leave great impact on the members of his team. For now, i'm sure the team is up to looking for someone who can be as good as Pollard that can definitely create positive improvements for the team.

The performance of Pollard is experienced much on the IPL and other premier leagues and not on the international matches for his country. This time he wasn't able to perform good for his Mumbai Indians team. As said, he's a positive player and an all-rounder. He is one among the best in the category fielding. West Indies players are full of fun and Pollard is no exceptional.

We have to admit that Djokovic is not the same recently many gamblers lost their bets because of him he showed really poor performance on the first and last sets he lost at least a set in all his games in belgrad atp which is unusual for him i hope he get better soon i think he can give more to tennis.

We need to understand that Djokovic has played only a few matches this year and that he is not completely ready yet.
Due to the vaccination situation, Covid Đoković could not play in many tournaments, and therefore he is not at the right level yet.
Probably everything that happened in Australia psychologically affected him as well.
I expect his level of play to rise slowly and he will be fully ready for the GS in Paris.

This tournament would have been important for Djokovic as its a home tournament
but I would say his sights are set on Roland Garros, If he gets some more matches
under him he will be fairly close to fighting fit.

The last Serbia open is a big stress reliever and it has helped him test his physical fitness. Now until the Roland Garros he can be the no.1 player, after which based on some point calculation there is possible chances of rank variation based on match win/losing. Novak Djokovic not playing a lot of tournaments due to the vaccination has affected his play. Hope he'll give a big comeback.

Punjub Kings   :   Chennai Super Kings
Punjab will play against Chennai today. The performance of both these teams is quite poor this season. Punjab has won 3 out of 7 matches and Chennai has won 2 matches. Punjab's batsmen have played very badly in the last two matches. They lost all their wickets for just 115 runs against Delhi and Punjab managed 151 runs against Hyderabad. On the other hand, Chennai's performance in the last few matches was quite good. If Chennai can maintain their streak, they will be able to win against Punjab today.
I am keen to bet this match for Chennai. In the last match I saw Punjab's match against Delhi Capital, Punjab lost all their wickets by just 115 runs. And Delhi won the match by 119 runs in just 10.3 overs. Punjab's performance has declined drastically. On the other hand, Chennai's performance has been better than in previous matches. So I think Chennai is the favorite in this match.

Chennai is batting for 188 runs. At the end of 16 overs, Chennai lost 4 wickets and scored 141 runs. Raydu is still at the crease after collecting 75 runs from 33 balls. Chennai need 47 off 24 balls to win. If Raydu can stay at the crease then I think Chennai can win this match. He is playing very well today. Jadeja is at the crease. He is also a great batsman.
Chennai wasn't able to make this time. The last over was faced by Dhoni, with the required 27 runs in 6 balls. First ball went for a six, but he wasn't able to make it. However finally Chennai was able to score 176 runs and lost the match by 11 runs. After two consecutive losses Punjab Kings have made a win. At the required time the performance isn't good from Jadeja.
2358  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: airdrops never make money on: April 25, 2022, 04:58:45 PM
It should also be realized that sometimes Airdrops are like that apart from those who sometimes apply Random winners, this also has the potential as you said with worthless tokens but actually when you can find something good of course there are always one or two Airdrops valuable.
Maybe you weren't too lucky there because I'm also not there right now because I think the chances are very small and there are too many Airdrops which aren't too good right now
Very few get lucky to make big money out of airdrops. In the past during the days of ICO there were more number airdrops. Nowadays airdrops are limited and among them valuable airdrops are very few. In the past users were requested to accomplish certain tasks and the users who fulfilled the tasks will be paid. Nowadays the number of participants were limited and the winners were chosen in a random manner.

Mumbai Indians have the most influential captains from the national side, and he certainly carry them forward in international cricket, but it is proven that players must perform as well as captains. Regardless of the captain, if the team is not balanced, the outcome will be the same. As well, the Mumbai Indians released Krunal, Hardik, Boult, Chahar, and De Kock. It's amazing how changes in a team can go from success to failure.

They invested huge money on Ishan kishan for reason only MI management can tell. I don't think Rohit as a captain has performed well in international matches and this IPL is proving to be a nightmare for him. CSK is also on same track but they have won 2 games atleast.
CSK have managed to win the two matches after a hard fight. More memes were getting circulated about Ishan kishan being bought for much higher price.



In the last match against Lucknow Super Giants Ishan kishan is so unlucky to loss his wicket. In the next season's auction Mumbai Indians will look for the buying of players who have been left by the Mumbai Indians management.

To tie hands with bounty managers is really good if the respective platform have got its own tokens. So that through a single promotion it is possible to promote the gambling casino along with the token. There are very few number of gambling based tokens available, and those too doesn't have a good growth in comparison to the other crypto investments.
