2581  Other / Off-topic / Re: VAR: Has it improved football or has made it worse ?* on: July 27, 2022, 01:24:07 PM
In terms of accuracy, VAR is very helpful in football, it is also very helpful for referees to review incidents that occur during a match, before they make a final decision.
Referees are human and it is impossible for him to make mistakes when he himself has to observe 22 players simultaneously during a match, and VAR helps them to re-examine incidents they missed to see in the first place, or simply make sure that their decisions are correct. right before making the last call.
and indeed the occurrence of VAR will result in the postponement of the match as long as the VAR occurs which will annoy the spectators, and also the players don't like it because they can no longer get away with flashy play, it will throw him away, I suspect the management doesn't like it for the same reason. If you have nothing to lose as to what the problem is, it just means that the results will reflect what really happened.
And whatever the reason, I think VAR is good for football and considering every CCTV case is accurate evidence that cannot be manipulated.

And those who have been in the industry for a long time will say bitcoin with several reasons why it is the most popular and most demanded cryptocurrency.
and the main reason because it is the first and oldest and trusted cryptocurrency and also profitable and very easy to use and safe and its value keeps increasing, because many investments are being made day by day and the second is ethereum because it is the best after bitcoin.
2583  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Haney vs Kambosos II (Undisputed) on: July 26, 2022, 06:54:24 PM
He had a great fight before with George Kambosos and Devin Haney took his record to 28-0 by controlling George Kambosos with very sharp accurate jabs, quick and precise footwork, smart corners, excellent timing. And he has a great defensive job, as well as a great counter-attack when the opportunity presents itself.
and if I look at his previous fights I doubt Kambosos can beat him for the rematch even though he is very well prepared, and Haney beat Kambosos to become the undisputed lightweight champion.
2584  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ English Premier League Season: 2022/2023 on: July 26, 2022, 11:12:52 AM
What you said would apply to all managers, once they lose a player they replace him with another at their disposal therefore in that sense it is nothing new. Where things will get tricky for Klopp will be trying to get a player replicate what Mane brought to the team.

The players he currently has in the squad are full of potential but right now are not good enough at this stage to do even 50% of what Mane was doing therefore you are right it will take time to adjust.

What will happen to Liverpool during that period of adjustment is an open question. I think they will suffer, they will fail to challenge for the Premier League and will not get beyond the quarter-finals of the champions league. I think this season will be a huge setback for Liverpool because Mane was a brilliant player for them and his work and efforts cannot be replaced immediately.

Mane is replaceable just as any other player but until someone is able to fill that void Liverpool will suffer. It will be an interesting statistic to see the goals Salah scores without Mane helping him.

Undoubtedly. Now, I believe Klopp will certainly adjust his game strategy/tactics to the new players he has at his disposal, in order to make up for this absence. Even so, it will always take a while to adjust.

@JollyGood Mane wasn’t just a player he was that piece of the puzzle that was sticking this Liverpool side together, and constantly pushing them to win hence it’ll take a season or two to replace him. Lastly I’m not really sure that Salah will be fine without him, because I’m personally expecting him to score less goals this season due to Mane’s transfer.
Mane was brilliant, scoring goals and creating plenty of chances and his performances have won back the trust of Liverpool fans. And I think he was one of the most dangerous players when he was in the EPL.
Mane was a good striker and player during his time at Liverpool but Salah was the backbone of this team and I am sure there will be changes for Liverpool and also Salah because Mane and Salah are a very good pair but sadly separated.

I'd say that you should have done the other way and not with what you did. Taking a loan isn't really a good idea for your bitcoin and crypto investments.

I can't imagine on how much all the interest that you've got and the market won't be favorable to us in times that you're about to pay all of your debts.

But I think that before you did that, you've got some back up plans on how you're going to pay that despite the market won't be that good during the time of payments. I guess you've got other sources of income where you can pull your money for paying those debts.

Anyway, it's already there and hoping that we'll see the better market in the upcoming days/months/years.
It is very risky to invest anything from the proceeds of the loan and if expectations are not matched, although investing in bitcoin is not a bad thing as it will definitely be profitable in the long run.
and it looks like the OP has planned and thought about the risks and made sure he has other income to be able to pay for it, a very bold decision and I hope what he is planning to work out as bitcoin is not easy to predict.
2586  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA World Cup 2022 Group Stage Highlights on: July 26, 2022, 04:18:28 AM
For Group G will be against Brazil, Serbia, Switzerland and Cameroon. Apart from Brazil who will win the group, the other three teams can be said to have very balanced strengths and all three deserve to finish in second place in Group G to accompany Brazil to the next round. And I hope Switzerland will go with Brazil.
Many predict that Brazil will win, including Adenor Leonardo Bacchi (Tite) who is optimistic that he will become champion, but that is not necessarily the case because many countries have many star players and talented young players.
2587  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My old officemate become millionaire on investing on Bitcoin on: July 26, 2022, 01:56:16 AM
That's a nice story to hear. The takeaway for me was that unlike the others he held because he forgot about his investment. The irony being that he could of sold back in 2017 just below $20K and started his business many years ago, but that's beside the point really. The most challenging parts of hodling is not taking profits too early, selling too late, or failing to buy back. Forgetting about the investment certainly helps here!

Glad to hear he became a peso millionaire either way Cheesy
Forgetting about your investment really helps because instead of checking the price chart to keep updated, you tend to ignore its current price and also it’s price fluctuations. Good thing because you won’t be bothered every time the price of bitcoin drops, as you are not totally obsessed with your investment. Also, hodling makes a lot of difference than selling in short term. Even though not all investors can keep their patience and hold firm their investments.
Forgetting doesn't mean not knowing the future, because I'm sure most of those who forget to invest in bitcoin already know and believe that the future will improve and be very profitable, and the OP's story was very lucky to be able to resell it after knowing the increase in bitcoin.
investing in bitcoin and forgetting for years is a very good way because we all know the future will be much better and very profitable considering its growth and increasing popularity, and actually i want to do it but it is very difficult due to sudden need which sometimes happens by accident unexpected that forced me to use it.
and I invest in bitcoins for reserve funds that I can use when I really need them and only use them as needed.

I didn't say that getting into these leaderboards was a goal for me (although in fact it would be nice since the tops get huge bonuses for the money they wage). Haven't you ever met such a psychological effect that you saw things that were approximately the same in meaning but of a very different scale, and the smaller thing against the background of the big one became, as it were, insignificant?
Of course, it would be nice if we could get to the leaderboards and it seems like there are still many people who make it their goal to gamble. I think I've seen the situation you mentioned but I don't know and am not sure, because I've never really thought about it much. If I encounter something that has to do with psychology, I tend to let it go and not think about it because that will make me think more about it and even forget what I should be doing.
Many people are gambling for profit so yes all of them have once dreamed of to be part of the leader board because there are extra prizes that you can win but many of them have also forget it and don't push that dream because they know that it will take them lots of money before they can increase their ranks in the leaderboard. About that psychology thing you are saying, yes you better forget about that because that can make you crazy in the long run if you will keep on thinking about it.

There are lots of new stuffs being introduced in the casino this year but I don't think those stuffs have became a trend since many of the casinos are not following it.

Definitely, casinos will try and try new stuffs to cater the gambling community.
This will give them advantage over the others, however, they need to find a good feature that can sustain the interest of players.
This is why from time to time, they need to change the contests or programs, as players are not contented with only one and they got bored easily.
Also, they need to innovate and adopt what's the current interest of the players, like venturing the NFT business and integrate it with the casino.
They will compete in any way, that's why they will have a promotion that would attract gamblers as they understand how high is the competition in the crypto gambling world. We have less regulation here and crypto is becoming more popular so the interest will grow, and it's just not a matter of promotion but also the way to build a good reputation.
Yes, currently there are a lot of betting games offered, of course very interesting and fun for bettors who like to play online gambling with games that are familiar in the world, even online casinos have to be creative in finding new ideas, not even just promotions. . Convenience of playing and also smoothness in transactions or anything related to online gambling.
and all of that aims to attract new customers and also retain existing customers because competition is very tight, technological advances make online gambling more attractive which in my opinion will continue to grow and develop.
2589  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Educating people on Bitcoin for free on: July 25, 2022, 02:30:52 PM
Those people you've shared your knowledge about bitcoin will remember you but those that don't appreciate it, will just have to ignore everything that you've said.

And soon, when the price of bitcoin rises again.

They'll start to remember you and everything that you've said. We all know about it when we're in a bear market, interest decreases but when the bulls started to come in, all of them becomes interested.
There are many people who ignore understanding about bitcoin because they have in their mind some pre-assumptions about it that it's scam or something due to some negativity around but those who wish to understand about it will always ready to learn and appreciate your efforts for it.So you just need to focus on the positive aspect only and ignore all those who demotivate you because btc is best.
That will never be gone, that taboo on their minds about bitcoin will remain unless they start earning and owning bitcoin.

They don't have it and that's why they think that it's something negative and they shouldn't touch it by any means. But take it an example when they've become a holder of it.

For sure, they'll be one of those people that will defend it from the folks that have been the same as them before who are telling bad things about bitcoin.
Most people are afraid of what they don't understand and are also afraid of change, and it's human nature that we all blame at some point in our lives.
we all have missed amazing experiences or opportunities because we are not open to change or try something new, at the same time, this trait may have saved our lives too.
and the problem is not many people know the functions and advantages of bitcoin because bitcoin will be useful for those who believe in bitcoin, otherwise they will not care even if they do there will definitely be mistakes because it is not based on sufficient knowledge which ends up hating.
bitcoin will be just right for those who are self aware and aware of their amazing functions and benefits to them. Ignore those who don't care or hate because we will know that eventually they will realize as we know the popularity and growth of bitcoin continues to grow and develop.
2590  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Russia is the most aggressive country on: July 25, 2022, 06:59:21 AM
for ukraine may say yes russia is aggressive but they are not the only aggressive country but the death and destruction they cause say yes because this is a war which is considered aggressive as it is stronger in every way.
and many strong states act aggressively against weaker states, and violence is necessary to end wars with violence.
both were wrong, the west violated the warsaw pact so russia was stabbed in the back then russia became paranoid. So the cause of the war is the paranoia of Russia and the greedy west by stabbing Russia in the back, also the Ukrainian president is wrong if he doesn't choose the west there will be peace, there is no right or wrong in war.
2591  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If There's No Casino Signature Will The Gambling Board Still Be The Same on: July 23, 2022, 04:02:35 PM
There will definitely be a difference, although not too significant because for active gamblers and the gambling board is a place where they can discuss or share experiences, information and knowledge about gambling which is very interesting.
and I'm sure many also don't really like the gambling part because I think it's a difficult place because we are forced to understand or can, even get involved to be able to discuss because these are all demands or rules that must be obeyed from signature campaigns to get paid.
but for me even though it is not required by the signature campaign, I still like it because I also enjoy reading this section to increase knowledge.
2592  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Looking to start an online casino on: July 23, 2022, 04:58:32 AM
If done right, setting up an online casino can be very profitable as many people start an online casino business and then get discouraged because they don't know where to start.
and all you need to have is marketing experience, affiliate experience, live casino experience and most importantly, sufficient knowledge and capital to do so.
it's good to learn everything well so you don't make a wrong move and a strategy that will make you lose and regret, it looks easy but it's not as easy as you think because there will be many obstacles that you will face even unexpectedly.

It is a combination of the two, we can all be lucky but getting the skills involved to become a better and successful sport is not easy. It takes time and will get better with time and experience.
and don't always follow your heart, look to the latest statistics, information and performance to help you decide where to put your money. Even if it means betting against your favorite team or sports star, bets should be made based on the statistical probability of winning.

2595  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: FUD Has Finally Taken Its Toll on Me on: July 22, 2022, 05:10:41 PM

I would deny that because I think that younger generation is more aware of the pros and cons of cryptocurrencies.
So I think they might instead support cryptocurrencies and make it legal in their countries.
If I were a person of political power then I would definitely make crypto legal with some regulation that supports it's growth.
Where the government or anyone has no control over cryptocurrency even no one can control it in any way. In that case there is no end of bitcoin. If the government wants they can restrict it but does stop it. The Bitcoin market is currently in a bit bearish, but it is temporary. As it has been adapted by the younger generation its demand will always increase.

I agree with that. As long as the younger generation is interested in bitcoin and cryptocurrency as a whole there will always be a demand for it.
Since bitcoin is decentralized there's nothing that can stop it. The governments can ofcourse regulate it or some can even ban it but they can't stop it functioning.
So as long as we all are here bitcoin is here to stay. Keep hodling.
The government is powerless, a very stupid ban will force people to use crypto.
any ban will speed up the process of spreading crypto around the world.
bans have been around since bitcoin or crypto existed in the world, but what we see bitcoin continues to grow and is getting more and more popular with this we can easily read or rate bitcoin in the future which will continue to grow and get better from generation to generation.
2596  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why does Bitcoin seem to have a high influence over other cryptocurrencies? on: July 22, 2022, 12:33:03 PM
Altcoins are completely dependent on bitcoin, which is the undisputed leader in all crypto markets.
bitcoin is the most widely used and most popular and also has the largest capitulation, and when the price of bitcoin falls, altcoins fall even more.
so diversification in the cryptocurrency world is a big illusion, and the sooner you understand this, the better for you, because you will be able to fully invest in real signals, the bitcoin revolution and the rest is just noise.
2597  Other / Politics & Society / Re: High inflation is causing GLOBAL protests on: July 21, 2022, 05:23:52 PM
Even though the pandemic seems to be over, the world is still feeling its effects, there is a lot of pent up demand and interest rates are still lower than pre-pandemic levels. This means more money with people and an appetite to spend, which leads to rising prices.
but that's only one side, supply can not meet demand, with supply chain bottlenecks that continue to worry.
and not just a pandemic, the Russo-Ukrainian war has caused a lot of uncertainty as both countries are major suppliers of commodities, supply disruptions from these countries have led to sharp price increases.
Moreover, the price of crude oil is at its highest level in the last 8 years, and I think it all happened and was influenced by these two things.

As the name suggests they are based on viral memes or themes based on dogs or anything other than pump and dump which is very dangerous if we don't buy and sell at the right time, these coins have no solid foundation or application, their price is driven by some handles on social media .
Therefore it is very risky to invest in this meme coin, especially in very large amounts, Doge and Shiba were only good at that time, but now many investors are complaining and for BabyDoge I don't care.
2599  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar - UEFA Qualifiers on: July 21, 2022, 01:01:06 PM
FIFA will formally introduce the semi-automatic offside system for the Qatar 2022 World Cup. Match officials can use these tools to help them make decisions more quickly and correctly both on the field and in the video room. The success of the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) at the 2018 World Cup in Russia inspired the development of this semi-automatic offside detection device, which has since undergone trials at the Arab Cup 2021 and the Club World Cup.

To create and enhance semi-automatic offside detection technology, FIFA closely collaborates with Adidas and a number of other partners.

Interestingly referees can still make big mistakes despite having a system like VAR. We see these mistakes in some games even though not the majority of games are like this. However I still hope that this new technology will hinder big mistakes in the World Cup. Some positions can be very tricky to decide whether they are offside or not. You just need to look into them in a very detailed way. If this system doesn't have any technical problem then these positions wouldn't be evaluated wrongly as of now.
This technology will be very useful and very helpful for the referee's work on the field, and although it is assisted by great technology and also the first time for the Qatar 2022 World Cup later the final decision remains in the hands of the referee.
and semi-automated offside technology which is expected to provide additional and more accurate VAR information, as well as assist the referee's decision-making process and make the review process as efficient as possible. And I really wanted to see how it worked on the pitch because this technology is a first in football.

Snip

No one has really seen the future to be honest.
What we can do is just make predictions based on estimation and calculations.
I guess after 10 years Bitcoins will become very valuable. As the supply is limited, so yes in a later period of time the demand will increase for it.
I guess there won’t be any coin which will ever surpass Bitcoins in terms of price of marketcap.
Nevertheless anything is possible, so we need to wait and watch carefully.

Absolutely right.

No one knows what the future will be, but we do have a history of about a decade of Bitcoin, and it basically shows that it works.

Nothing comes even close to Bitcoin. Most alts only trade because people want to make some quick money out of it, they lack fundamentals. So in the end the people that started the Alta eventually sell and the people that bought those coins end up funding their retirement.

Bitcoin is decentralized, so you are investing in your own retirement, not someone else's.
I myself have the view that bitcoin will reach a very high price, and will become the most expensive currency in the future.
why can i say that? this is quite reasonable, bitcoin itself from the beginning was not much, the number was only about 21 million and now and so it will continue to decrease and this is the specialty of bitcoin.
and in the next 10 years I think the demand will continue to increase and will become more valuable and will become a very promising investment choice for investors.
