2461  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: As big as binance in the future on: March 27, 2022, 04:44:10 PM
I don't think anything can compete with the Binance exchange yet.  Binance has many features, one of the most special is the BNB coin which has made the Binance exchange big and famous and now there are many new projects connected to the network

Right now, it's hard to think of any exchange that can compete directly with finance. I have used houbi, FTX, OKK even a new exchange recently like mexc, bitget, but no exchange makes me feel as comfortable and safe as finance.

But who knows the future because before binance, houbi, the market was dominated by Poloniex, Bittrex. I hope binance will not rest in victory, always improve and improve the quality of their services.

I fear for ETH future, almost all smart contract projects are using the PoS staking algorithm but only ETH PoW stands alone, this makes ETH different and one of a kind smart contract project, I think vitalik buterin will regret is decision after ETH goes PoS.


What you fear is also partly true because today there are many potential and outstanding altcoins, along with congestion and expensive gas fees on ETH, some projects are looking for alternatives on other networks. But you do not need to worry too much because ETH is still making efforts and gradually entering the transition phase of ETH. The ETH2.0 event is considered the most anticipated event of the crypto community, I find it to attract more people's attention than the bitcoin halving event. Shows that the community's interest in ETH has never cooled down and all efforts will be well rewarded with ETH2.0

The presence of stable coins makes anyone more calm, when feeling profit, then immediately move to a stable coin, or vice versa when the market is very fluctuating and in the negative direction then immediately divert it to a stable coin into the best solution, this makes the use of stable coins the biggest and Daily transaction volume can reach 2x from Bitcoin.

I see no point in doing it, unless you live in a country where every single trade on exchange has to be reported and taxed. First of all I don't hold coins on exchanges so I never exit to a stable coin or fiat juzt to "feel safe". I feel pretty safe holding bitcoin. That said, if I had to exit, I'd always choose fiat money not a stable coin that relies on a third party (coin's creator and issuer) and can be delisted from an exchange or lose value. A fiat currency is always better than a half measure like USDt

I agree that holding USDT is very risky as it is centralized it can disappear or worse your account gets frozen. But it also has benefits, when the market is volatile stablecoins will be a safe place for your assets avoiding market fluctuations.
Currently Iam using binance centralized exchange and so far I have not had any problem with CEX and stablecoins, centralized exchanges and USDT are almost an integral part of the market, so don't get too strict on them.
2464  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Buying BTC vs Mining it on: March 26, 2022, 03:45:55 PM
Better to buy bitcoin than to mine it. You will be spending more on mining than you will be earning from the rewards. The cost of power, equipment, maintenance and lots of other things will add up making everything very expensive for you. You have to spend a lot of time making sure the hardware is running properly and is maintained well enough.
Just buy bitcoin and hold them. You will be earning more in the long run.


I don't think the spend will be more than the reward get from mining, if there is no profit how can mining farms survive?.
I think like this, mining will make profit but to mine bitcoin will cost a lot in the first time of operation and requires us to have a source of money to pay monthly costs and Basic technical knowledge is required to operate an excavator. But buying bitcoin is simpler, we can invest with less amount and just buy and hold, we don't have to worry about monthly cost.
2465  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Are we going to see a new altcoin boom soon on: March 26, 2022, 05:08:34 AM
Most of the market is beginning to pick up in recent times and altcoin look left behind in the recent market boom.
Do not generalize that altcoins are being left behind, there are some that are not and there are a lot that has been left behind.

What are we going to expect from the altcoin market with this new market boom will altcoin see a new phase in the market or Bitcoin will continue with the market trend?
Unpredictable. That's always what we should think about because we have no idea whether this trend will continue or it could be a bull trap or it'll continue. Much better to do your part of accumulating so that you'll get to have yourself satisfied whenever the actual bull run comes again.
My bad if I generalized the present altcoin condition and thank you for pointing out altcoins that are really doing well in the present market situation, but the fact remains that the altcoin market is highly volatile and that unpredictable volatility always impact the altcoin market that is pumped and dumped.
The altcoins market is still tracking bitcoin so bitcoin remains the main concern, if bitcoin goes up then I believe there will be a boom for altcoins. Crypto are not predictable and even more so with altcoins, the low market cap makes it vulnerable to manipulation.

Nothing to be expected. The market can go up and plunged back again in a short time. Just hope bitcoin will be very stable at this moment. Im sure if this will be also pushing altcoins as well. It's not all but majority of altcoins will be on the bullish trend as well as bitcoin
I also think bitcoin will go up and down soon after. I don't expect an uptrend this year, I predict bitcoin above 40k and that's okay. Hope BTC doesn't fall too deep.

Haha, I thought it was a joke about Manchester United. No coach has matched them after Sir Alex Ferguson. They were stronger with Carrick even if it was for a while but the rest was a joke in my opinion.
No titles are expected of Manchester United every season, they are weaker than we expected. I think Manchester United really have to forget their successful past with Ferguson and they have to work together as best they can with the new coach, whoever they work with.
Unless they need to strengthen their defence a lot and they need a responsible presence in defence. Maybe in the form of someone in defence line or maybe as a defensive midfielder who can take some responsibility and show some commitment then that will certainly be a change is what I feel. Right now I don't see any kind of proper commitment in defenders or defensive midfielders. I think its time to replace some of the players.

The coach is not going to be able to do much if the defense of a team is not strong enough to defend goals. The goals are going to be scored, and the wicketkeeper can only do so much to save a goal. 
so, unless they change their defense they are not going to be able to play better and concede a lot more than they already have. I think the attack is ok and the mid-field is also decent.
2467  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Time to buy some low cap coins on: March 25, 2022, 05:38:49 PM
it is very interesting to see that there are people who really want to buy low cap coins,
because from my experience low cap coins are very risky to hold,

yes indeed the profits we will get will be more than high caps in the top 100 coinmarketcap,
Very easy to find low cap, just go to coinmarketcap and look for a ranking above 500, good luck

Crypto is a market that always has opportunities, therefore each person will have a different investment taste. Lowcap coin is really high risk but the return they bring is not small, so a lot of people are willing to take risks to quickly find wealth.
Investing in low cap is not necessarily bad if you have experience and know how to analyze the market, you can find potential low cap coins when the market is up.

The way the Australian women's team is moving forward, no other team can afford to hold them back. They are playing great. Won all 6 matches. And every match they have dominated. They are equally strong in both bowling and batting. The title cannot be snatched from the Australian women's team unless a miracle occurs. Although India and England are good teams, they are failing to perform as well on a regular basis as Australia.

After beating Bangladesh they have completed there first stage with no loss, 7 out of 7 they have won. Australia is definitely favorite for this WC but we can't say with certainty that they will win. Teams like WI and SA are performing good and they can be as good as Australia on semi final day.

Australia is the best team in the tournament by far and I thought if anything could come close, it would have been England but the England team did not play well in this tournament, at least not as well as Australia. It will be really surprising if Australia actually goes on to lose this tournament. and hope they don't get too overconfident.
2469  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How would crypto fare without centralized exchanges? on: March 25, 2022, 04:52:21 PM
If crypto becomes extremely popular in the future (widely adopted by a vast majority of people worldwide), it's probable governments will turn against it. They can pressure centralized exchanges to close up shop or face serious consequences in the long run. After all, these exchanges are the on and off ramps from the crypto world to the Fiat world. While not every country is against crypto, they might change their stance once they see Russia using it as a means to avoid sanctions.

Imagine if most countries unilaterally agree on banning centralized exchanges for good. Will that mean the end of crypto for good (even though it would still be possible to get some crypto through decentralized exchanges)? After all, most people will be afraid of using crypto if it's declared "illegal". The ban of centralized exchanges will surely topple crypto prices, signaling fear among investors and traders alike.

What are your thoughts? Huh
If centralised exchanges are banned, i am very sure that founders of these centralized exchanges themselves would create decentralised exchanges which could work much better than or atleast at par with the centralised exchanges of today. The only problem that decentralised exchanges face is the volume and fees, volume problem will automatically get solved if centralised exchanges are ban and fees problem can be solved by using a coin with low fees.
The majority of users today prefer low transaction fees and being able to trade multiple currency pairs on one platform and we can convert to fiat quickly. I think this is the reason CEX is still popular.
Decentralized exchanges are still heavily restricted, but if centralized exchanges close completely, then developers will focus on developing and promoting the entire decentralized exchange to in line with market needs.
But the hypothesis that the entire CEX is banned is almost impossible. Instead of the government against, the government will make strict regulations or through CEX the government can control our transactions.
2470  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Does Solana have a future? on: March 24, 2022, 03:38:26 PM
I think the future is always the same for any altcoin. Except of course for really good projects, but there is only one so far, and that is Ethereum. All the other projects come and go, it happens all the time year after year. I think that in time a new Solana will come along, which will be much better than the current one. History always repeats itself.


Agree that there will be better altcoins to replace, looking at Topcoins 2017 and 2022 We saw a very clear difference. Most topcoins have been replaced by better altcoins, only BTC and ETH hold their ground. But the market is growing day by day, we should expect more successful projects than failures. Although Solana, DOT, Near… may not be able to replace ETH but I still believe and hope they will develop and exist with the market.
2471  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Dogecoin - a joke or a way to make money? on: March 24, 2022, 02:44:07 PM
We don't know if dogecoin in the future will be a project that can benefit many investors even though it is currently only known as memekoin which will not last long, although currently dogekoin is only known as a joke coin but in 2021 an increase occurred so that many investors who hold the coin get a very large profit, although at this time the decline is back but we can save in the long run.
Although I don't like memecoins but really its difficult to predict whether memecoins will disappear or will be the next market hype. The future of dogecoin I think it will depend a lot on Elon, as most of the doge hype comes from ELon. As long as he tweets something bad about dogecoin, I think people will quickly dump dogecoins and forget about them.
2472  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you spend crypto? If yes, for what? on: March 24, 2022, 02:27:18 PM
If really you do online shopping which normally required the country you are transacting with currency and the company due accept cryptocurrency and especially bitcoin, because of charge and procedures of Fiat currency you will prefer using bitcoin, so try to shop online and make payment with bitcoin, you will understand and also differentiate the difference between making payments with fiat and cryptocurrency.
Someday I will definitely do it because for now I only think realistically about Bitcoin being sacrificed for an item that will later pile up into garbage, so ideally I would prefer to save Bitcoin rather than spend on things that can still be reached with fiat. That's one of my strong reasons, although there may be an online store near me that accepts Bitcoin payments. But then again, as a holder, I would definitely think twice and weigh the advantages between Bitcoin and certain items. Is it worth spending when Bitcoin becomes increasingly scarce and expensive, while goods will get cheaper and replaced with newer versions?  Cheesy
Me too, instead of using bitcoin to buy a few things I will save bitcoin as much as I can. I think it would be quite wasteful to exchange bitcoins for items that will be replaced over time. The time will come when we look back at what we paid for those things in bitcoin. I think there will be regrets like when programmer Laszlo Hanyecz bought 2 pizzas for 10,000 Bitcoin in 2010.
2473  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 23, 2022, 11:59:59 PM
Juventus will have a better chance to win that match against Inter. because Juventus is in really good form right now. But compared to Juventus, Inter is not having the greatest moment of the season.

so, I think Juventus is going to have the advantage. But obviously, this match is going to be hard for Juventus to win. this match is going to make big changes to the points table.

To be honest I don't think that Inter is going to win and if anything Inter will go further down in the points table.

If you look at the last five matches of both teams you will see that Juventus is in a good run of form right now. they haven't lost any match in their last five and won 4 of them. on the other hand, Inter is not enjoying their game right now because they are not winning consistently or maybe I should say they are not winning at all. I really don't see any way how Inter is going to be able to beat Juventus.

For the match between Juventus and Inter Milan, I'm not too sure that Inter Milan can draw with Juventus. Inter Milan's recent form has not been promising even when they are a team below them. And what they will face now is Juventus, of course we know that Juventus is one of the big teams in Italy. So I will hold on to Juventus' victory in this match.
I agree that it will not be that simple, I believe that it will take some time before Inter could recover and playing Juventus is not a great way for your recovery. It will probably another loss for them, and then third position will be in danger for them but they can't just start the big win momentum on a game this difficult. Or maybe they will see this game as the game that they could start because if you can beat Juventus then you could certainly beat most other teams in the league (aside from maybe Milan or Napoli).
This is why either they are going fold like sheet on this game and get dominated, or they will dominate the game and I do not know which one will happen.

Hope we are not underestimating sterling, De Bruyne and G. Jesus and Grealish then the likes of Fernandinho and B. silva. I am not saying Liverpool's front liners are not capable but Mancity are playing at home and will not want to lose to Liverpool like they did to tottenham. I both can't say who wins but i am sure goals will come from both teams
In my opinion, Liverpool's mentality has the upper hand, because Liverpool have been able to cut the distance of points that had touched 14 points to just one, within three months. I think it will be a motivation for Liverpool
This is amazing skill which they adopted under current manager Jürgen Klopp and surely it helps them in this season as we all know in last season they have terrible time and mostly peoples were feeling they need some more time.
But, they have surprisingly done amazing job and right now have most mentally strong team in European Leagues with this strong mentality right now they already achieved EFL Cup and now fighting hard for three more cups most chances they can achieve all or minimum two are coming in this club for this current season because we all already check how they cut gape and now having only one point gape which is also recoverable in quick time before end of this season.
April is going to be very entertaining as we have a few big matches waiting for us in The FA Cup and Premier League.

Liverpool is currently in the most perfect form right now. They did not lose even one match in the last five. and that should alone give them the confidence that they need going forward. I really think that Liverpool is going to be the winner of this English Premier League this season.

Even though at the moment they are behind Manchester City but I think it is just a matter of time before they surpass Manchester City and take the lead.

At the moment in English Premier League Liverpool and Manchester City seems to be having their own fight because there is a gap of 10 points from the second to the third position in the league.

2476  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 on: March 22, 2022, 08:05:59 PM
Actually, Ousmane Dembele has been playing really well currently. in the match against Real Madrid, I saw Ousmane Dembele making a lot of runs. he was really running freely with the ball and also without the ball in the right-wing and provided some good crosses for the team. If I remember correctly this same Ousmane Dembele was really talked shit about because he was not performing well enough.

Obviously, Barcelona had the advantage of Benzema not playing for Real Madrid. I think that's a wise decision because they have to concentrate on the match against Chelsea in the Champions League.

Xavi did the hard job and give his best to motivate his players. Since Xavi gave comment on Dembele can be the best player in the world in his position, then he used to give his absolute best and potentially create 9 assists in 12 La Liga games in spite of missing over two months with injury. Dembele and Auba combination could frame dangerous one. That is Xavi's impact, when somebody trusts in you, you do well. That can apply to anything on earth. People need people that puts stock in them to continue onward and succeed. It's the way mentor Xavi uncover their secret abilities.
Bad and bad. Sad by this result, madrid players should be embarrassed 4 goals without being able to score at the Bernabeu. Actually I was worried when Madrid lost in midfield dominance and possession. The game was controlled by Barcelona.  Pedri, De Jong and Busquets became the key to Barcelona's great game. Madrid's midfield became a weak point, so Barcelona were very free to play the ball. Benzema's absence also made Madrid weak in the final settlement. In addition, placing Modric in the False nine is also ineffective. Of course, this defeat makes Madrid's point difference even less.
2477  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Europa League Discussion Thread on: March 22, 2022, 05:26:44 PM
It is really unbelievable If we think about Barcelona winning against Galatasaray by a really narrow margin and the same Barcelona winning the El Clasico by four goals to zero. I think it really shows how the team has changed under new management and what potential it has to go ahead in the future. It will be really interesting to see Barcelona play in the next season.
Barcelona is enjoying a wonderful period with Xavi, the win in El Clasico is the culmination of all the wins that Barcelona has a previously wond. Frankfurt must be careful with Barcelona strength, especially Aubameyang who is on fire at Barcelona front lines.
a big win in El Clasico made the Frankfurt coach breaks out in a cold sweat, a team like Real Madrid can be beaten easily with a score of 4-0 especially Frankfurt, which is not in its best form. After repeatedly watching yesterday's El Clasico, the Frankfurt coach will apply a defensive strategy against Barcelona. Maybe that's the only way to dampen attacks from Barcelona players.
But I don't think it will always be like that due to the fact that Frankfurt are in the Bundesliga this season in their first match against Bayern Munich, that Frankfurt can win the away match against the strongest team in Germany with a score of 2-1. Meanwhile, Barcelona in the UCL this season before finally becoming part of the Europa League, previously Barcelona joined in the group with Bayern Munich in the UCL group phase. Also, both of Barcelona's matches against Bayern Munich in the UCL group stage the result was a 3-0 loss but indeed, at that time Barcelona's condition was still not as good as it is now. This of course makes Xavi unable to consider the team's condition safe, because teams from Germany or the Bundesliga have power which I think can be a surprise in the match later. But yes, the condition of the team now is different but anyway, Barcelona should not underestimate Frankfurt because it is very likely to be a blunder.

Barcelona has certainly done pretty well under the new authority. They made a really good comeback when it was almost impossible to happen. And at this moment Barcelona seems to be ahead of almost every team in the Europa League.

But, obviously, if they take it easy and underestimate their opponent in the Europa League they will obviously make a mistake. Because there is nothing easy at this level of competition. But, I do believe that Barcelona is going to be the one to walk away with a win against Frankfurt.
2478  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: March 21, 2022, 09:05:29 PM
Being Cristiano Ronaldo is certainly not always easy, especially considering the sad situation of Manchester United at the moment, plus Ronaldo is a mega star, it is certain that every mistake made by other players will have an impact on Ronaldo, news spread that almost half of Man City's players want Ronaldo to land at the Etihad Stadium, they really want to play with ronaldo, kevin de Brune once said, if ronaldo wants to join man city, he will surely spoil him with a good pass, we have to wait if Ronaldo changes his mind and wants to land at the Etihad Stadium.
Christaino Ronaldo would have been very successful in Manchester City. But his loyalty is to Manchester United fans it would be treachery for him to join their close rivals. That move woulf have made Ronald look like a mercenary. How can he play for City after having a career at Manchester United. It would be better to stay in Juventus than playing in any of the Manchester clubs.

We have been hearing a lot of transfer rumors about Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi and the interesting thing is both of these rumors are linked to Manchester City somehow.
To be honest, at this moment I really don't understand if these are actually rumors or if there is even a little bit of truth behind them.
But, if I am being honest I think Cristiano Ronaldo deserves better, and so does Leonel Messi.
2479  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 21, 2022, 09:01:43 PM
I really am sad for Inter on the recent weeks. They have got really bad results against much weaker competitors too and its happening very often changed things a lot for Inter. They are six points away from Milan now for example. They have an absent match and they can drop the gap to three points of course. But their recent performance doesn't seem to be promising for the future. They can certainly be left behind by Juventus soon too. Because Juventus have had a really impressive effort for weeks and this is helping them a lot to keep up with the three teams on the front.

If you look at the point table you will see Inter has only one win in their last five matches. And that is us looking not acceptable from them especially when they are fighting for the League Title, right?

Actually, they are just making it hard for themselves. They are already behind by quite a few points in the race for the League title but if they can get three points out of the match that they have in hand they are going to have a very decent chance I think.

The game between Barcelona and Frankfurt will be exciting. Barcelona already struggled against Galatasaray, so it will be interesting to see if they can regain strength. For me Barcelona was the favourite, but now I'm not so sure anymore. We‘ll see  Grin
I wouldn't say that Barcelona actually struggled against Galatasaray but it was certainly a little too close for comfort. Actually, I thought they will win by a better margin cause over 80% ball position was controlled by Barcelona at that match. Anyway, they did get the win and that's all matters.
Frankfurt is not an easy opponent for Barcelona at the moment. but I still think Barcelona is better than them. and Barcelona should win this match against Frankfurt. if they don't it will be really surprising.
Football is full of surprises, Barcelona just won 2-1 against Galatasaray and today they are playing a great game against Real. The dayform of the team also makes a big difference and Frankfurt has chances but in my opinion only very small ones. Barcelona are currently the clear favorites for the title, but surprises are always possible  Wink

It is really unbelievable If we think about Barcelona winning against Galatasaray by a really narrow margin and the same Barcelona winning the El Clasico by four goals to zero. I think it really shows how the team has changed under new management and what potential it has to go ahead in the future. It will be really interesting to see Barcelona play in the next season.
