2421  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Europa Conference League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Semifinals! on: May 06, 2022, 01:31:02 AM
It's just that the Mourinho figure itself has a special meaning here and because of this there is a certain information background. Everyone knows perfectly well that Mourinho is able to create and maintain a stir around his name and it turns out that there is more noise around the Conference League final than the Europa League final, which should be higher in status. However, this can also be largely explained by the fact that this is the first draw of the Conference League and the winner will go down in the annals of history as the first winner of the tournament. By the way, Mourinho has already made history as the first coach who took his teams to the finals of the Champions League, Europa League and Conference League.
Yeap, it is true and Mourinho already said about it in the press conference after the first leg match. He said "It would have been a loss 5-6 months ago". I agree with him because in early or middle of the season, AS Roma were more vulnerable in big matches. They managed to scored goals and have acceptable matches but their defense system were weak and collapsed in important moments that caused defeats in the end.

After a few months, Mourinho has improved it successfully and considerably. AS Roma has achieved the final match because of their efforts and improvements. Well done!


Let's look at match statistics

You can compare statistics in first leg and second leg matches. In terms of ball possession, there is not many difference and Roma with the defensive, counter-attacking approach from Mourinho have less than 40% ball possession in both matches. The point is Leicester City created less shots in the second match. Even if you only watch the match highlight video, you will see that Leicester City did not have too many opportunities in Rome.

Match 1

Match 2

Experience in coaching is important, but a winning mentality is much more important in my opinion. Before coaching Real Madrid, Carlo Ancelotti was not able to build Everton as a club that can compete with top clubs, even though Carlo Ancelotti's experience in coaching football clubs is extraordinary. If I'm not mistaken, when he coached Real Madrid, some important players in Real Madrid such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Sergio Ramos were left behind, but Carlo Ancelotti managed to bring Karim Benzema and his friends to win La Liga and enter the UCL Final. From that I judge that in European competition, mentality is very important.
Ancelotti is a very good, experienced and successful coach. His long career shows that with many titles from national to European ones. He is the first coach who win league title from all top five national leagues in the Europe, from Serie A, Premier League, Bundesliga, Ligue 1 to La Liga. He has won Champions League with AC Milan and Real Madrid.

In the match, he made some substitutions that bring Real Madrid to the final win. From Camavinga to Rodrygo, he did excellent substitution and good adjustment in Real Madrid tactics. I don't say Pep made bad substitutions because with Gundogan and Grealish, Manchester City had some opportunities to close the match. They were lack of a bit accuracy and a bit of luck or just because of Courtois' good saves.

Football has a very thin difference between win and lose. Yesterday match is a crazy one like that.

Verona has not lost in the last three matches in Serie A, collecting 7 points from three matches is a good record for Verona against Milan. Verona will host the match against Milan, despite being in 9th place, Verona will be a threat for Milan to maintain its position as the leader of the standings.
Verona have good form recent weeks but AC Milan will be a very big test for them, even just to have one point from AC Milan. Because AC Milan know that they have control in their hands and foot to take the Scudetto. Only 3 more matches to take it and they might not have any opportunity to fix mistake if they make it.

Quote
On the other hand, Inter have an easier opponent, Empoli just beaten by Torino at home. If Milan fails to overcome Verona, Inter will take Milan position at the top of the standings.
In football, we can not make simple math like this. Empoli was beaten by Torino does not mean they will be beaten by Inter Milan. I see that Inter Milan is stronger and will fight with all they have to collect 3 points. With this ambitious approach from Inter Milan, Empoli will have too minor chance in this match.

Above all, let's check injuries and suspended cases of AC Milan and Inter Milan because such out-of-game players can affect their performance.

AC Milan: Only Florenzi and Kjaer are out of season but they are not sudden missing cases recently so AC Milan have prepared for it, and have been familiar with these absence.

Inter Milan: Only unimportant player Bastoni might be missing

Their opponents: Empoli have 2 suspended players (red card) and two other possible missing players. Verona have two players in doubtful status but they are not too important players with them.

Additionally, let's look at the competition for the fifth position among AS Roma, Lazio, Atalanta and Fiorentina. They are only 3 points in difference with 59 points and 56 points. That race is exciting in my opinion.

2426  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: May 05, 2022, 01:02:54 AM
Oh, that's exactly what such matches are dangerous for, when a strong opponent has been defeated before and it would seem that the next one should not cause any special problems. Moreover, the match will be held in Verona and the local team will certainly try to please their fans and show their best side in the match with the leader. However, unlike their sworn neighbors from Milan, Inter will host Empoli at home and there will be some advantage in this. Also of some importance will be the fact that Inter will hold its match earlier and Milan will already know the result of this match when it plays with Verona. I personally am not sure that Empoli, who beat Napoli two weeks ago, will lose to Inter with "ease".
On the paper, it should work fine like you said. In reality, it might work very differently. Inter Milan lost their advantage against AC Milan because of mistake from their goalkeeper and a defeat against Bologna. Before that match, we all thought that Inter Milan will get 3 points from Bologna and go straight to Scudetto. What happened is a good example that in last 3 match days, we might see other surprising results from either Inter Milan or AC Milan or both of them.

I agree that it seems Inter Milan and AC Milan will get maximum points from 3 match days. Anyway, let's wait for real results from them. Personally both of them are deserved for the Scudetto but I would prefer to see AC Milan win it. Last season, Scudetto for Inter Milan. This season, Scudetto for AC Milan. It is better for Milan if they have improved together by internal competition and it's better for Serie A too. Other clubs will have more reasons to beat Milan teams.

I also think that Real Madrid's victory wasn't just luck.
It was not only luck if you look at the emotional response of Benzema after he scored the last goal for Real Madrid in the defeat 3-4 in Etihad stadium (first leg). His team mates also show that they strongly believed in what they can do in the second leg. In fact, they had a bad match at their home stadium until very last minutes. They equalized then won it because they have never given up their belief and dream in this season. What a strong team!

Quote
Well, they did not look good in the first half because the tight marking and tactical fouls played by Man City seemed to have succeeded in suppressing Real Madrid's attack. However, with Rodrygo, Camavinga, and Asensio playing in the second half, Real Madrid's performance improved, and I think, what started Real Madrid's revival was their winning mentality.

Even though the game was almost over, Real Madrid didn't look desperate and they kept trying to create opportunities, and in the end, that persistence pays off.
Manchester City mostly reached to the finale but only 2 minutes, they wasted it out. Then in the extra half, they couldn't play good enough to find at least one goal. There is not many clear opportunities for them to find the equalizer in extra half.

I feel like this season is reserved for Benzema and Real Madrid. Liverpool is great and the finale between them is great but I put my vote on Real Madrid and Benzema. I am not a fan of Real Madrid or Benzema but I would prefer to see Benzema has a perfect season in his career.

2430  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: BTC cycles and super cycles on: May 04, 2022, 02:35:57 AM
From historical data, there is 80% of correction from past All time highs to bottoms from which new bull runs started. In this bull run, we have yet touched to the bottom if history repeats itself.

If you simply look at the price chart, the next station for Bitcoin in case it continues falling is around $15,000 to $13,000. Combine it with past records and monthly RSI, it seems that we are possibly around the bottom. Anyway, please don't exclude the scenario that Bitcoin will drop more (RSI shows its possibility too).

I meant there is possibility for around 60% drop from $38,000 in upcoming months but there is another possibility that we already found a bottom.

In future, when less Bitcoin is left for Bitcoin future supply (for miners to mine and get from block rewards), I am sure that there will be bigger hype around future halvings. Fundamentally, I see positive future for Bitcoin.


Currently, it is fine if you are greedy when others are fearful.

2431  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if the fees aren't enough? on: May 04, 2022, 02:16:19 AM
I know its heresy but I'd really like to entertain a discussion on both sides regarding a concern of mine. What if transaction fees aren't enough to incentivize the miners to secure the bitcoin network?
You misunderstood a key point. Bitcoin network created by Satoshi Nakamoto and the income of miners is mainly from their transaction confirmation, not from block rewards, by design.

Quote
I think this is a potential problem we may see in the next few decades as the halving continues on. My hope is that we will have enough people using the bitcoin network to have a healthy fee market, but if we have weak periods like now where there are several unfilled blocks, wont miners just turn off their equipment as they are unprofitable? What options or solutions are being discussed to help mitigate this?
Miners have two classes: big miners and small miners. Small miners are mostly weak hands and they will capitulate in bear market. It has happened in the past before last 3 halvings. It will repeat in future in my opinion.

In theory, with each halving, block reward halved and as consequence of it, Bitcoin price should increase (should double its price at least). How about miner transaction fee?

If the transaction fee (in satoshi) for each block remains the same, what do you think about income for miners (only take into account the part from transaction fee, not block reward)?

Let's see two possibilities
  • Total transaction fee in satoshi value: remains the same >> income should increase because BTC increases in value
  • Total transaction fee in satoshi value increases. Why? In future, I believe there will be more demand on Bitcoin transaction on the network, so people might join fee rate race that give miners better chances to confirm transactions paid by higher fee rate/ vbyte. Then, it will be multiplied by the increase of BTC price. Consequently, we should see a double-effect (positively) on miner income

Private keys would only take up bytes on a memory stick, there would be no need to delete them.
I hope you aren't relying on your USB drives when it comes to storing the keys and seeds for your more important coins.
Digital devices have risk of technical issues and we don't know when it happens.

If I have 2 options, paper wallet and USB drive, I would prefer to choose Paper for storage of my private key or mnemonic seeds.
Another key point is: Always make multiple backups for each wallet. When one is broken and unusable, you will still have another/ other ones to use.

I don't choose USB drive because I don't want to wake up, open a USB and see it is broken, all data inside is lost.
2433  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Who missed the good old days of Paper wallets on: May 04, 2022, 01:05:11 AM
Airgapped wallets and Tail OS are best options for you.


You should create your wallet offline and for that purpose, airgapped wallet is helpful. Tail OS on USD flash drive is useful if you have to use your wallet on a public computer, not on your own private one.
2434  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: There is a probability that tesla will use bitcoin again on: May 03, 2022, 06:17:05 AM
Decision can be turned from No to Yes and vice versa. If Tesla invested in Bitcoin and still hold it, there will be more chance to see Tesla accepts Bitcoin as one of their payment methods again.

Elon Musk and Tesla know that it will bring more positive effect on Bitcoin price, then profit of Tesla investment. In addition, Tesla might more engage into it by developing some equipments or anything relates to Bitcoin mining which are helpful for the industry in order to boost the adaptation to become more environmental friendly.

Follow Tesla investment and other institutional investments with Bitcoin Treasuries.

Generation X, you don't really need too even teach them and they've started having a curious mind over it, side talks from friends will also fuel them into it.
Bitcoin is for everyone as well as education does. So Bitcoin was not initially created to aim at any specific population group. Now and in future, education on Bitcoin should not aim at any specific population group. We should do it for everyone.

Although the effort is for everyone, each population group will take it in different ways. Some groups especially younger ones are more readily to learn about new things. Older ones are less readily for such. It's basic human instinct.

Quote
It shouldn't be directed to Bitcoiner's kids but also the the middle class, low class.
It's wrong. Education should be globally run and opened for everyone, all classes in societies.

Look into the Fear and Greed index and practice the strategy "Being greed when others are fearful and being fearful when others are greed"

This strategy works for real investors, not speculators, not traders. Don't time the market, don't try to find absolute bottoms, let's apply that strategy and you will harvest good results in long term.

Where to check the Fear and Greed index?

Learning from trading courses is good but it is not enough.

In order to survive in the market, especially if you want to trade, you must have more preparations
  • Capital management: How do you manage your capital for trading? How much capital is allocated for trading compares to the rest (for investment, etc.)? In my opinion, trading capital should not be higher than 20% of your total capital.
  • Start with spot trading first. If you can not succeed with spot trading, you will not succeed with margin / leverage, future, option trading. Instead of success, you will be killed by exchanges and the market.

Some topics
2439  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Afraid to buy Bitcoin in its bearish state? on: May 03, 2022, 02:58:40 AM
    What will trigger Bitcoin bull run?

  • When more people get exposed to Bitcoin fundamentals (controlled supply, halving, etc.), there will be more people converted to Bitcoin investors.
  • This progress happens with time, gradually but around each halving (usually within one year before each halving), there are more news and educational campaigns about Bitcoin that all combined each other to bring Bitcoin to the mass.

Don't try to identify bottom or when a bull run starts. Let's accumulate when price is in discount or in bottom range.
