You did see the 2 games they played in the group stage right?
Also, Dortmund became first in the group in front of PSG. In my opinion PSG is definitely doable for Dortmund if they have 2 good nights
Dortmund and PSG had two matches in group stage and from results, we can say Dortmund got better results after two group-stage matches. The next two semi final matches between them will be different because many things changed in both clubs recent months. They can become stronger or weaker, probably fixed some of their weakness, had some improvements. Their understandings about each other from previous matches, will affect their approaches in two semi final matches as well.

Quote
PSG is nothing to be afraid of in my opinion. Mbappe is a big danger of course, but the rest is not at the same level in my opinion.

Sure they can destroy Dortmund on a good night but this could also happen the other way around. Dortmund is the most unpredictable teams of all the teams left in the competition. They have the least money of the 4 teams left but the best fans and (at least sometimes) the biggest heart.
PSG have a good squad and one of most dangerous attacking players, Mbappe but they are not a team that can create fear for opponents. In two quarter final matches with Barcelona, PSG did not show that they are actually stronger than Barcelona and if Araújo did not make that foul, got a red card, the second quarter final match would have been a nightmare for PSG.

Dortmund have nothing to feel fearful when facing PSG in semi finals.

Hmmm that's something to take note of, speedy withdraw is also one of the features to look out when wanting to use a casino and it's seem hugewin.com covers that criteria and this will certainly increase the population of customer gambling there although since their promotion is still on the primary level seeing more active competition and bonus offers will also go along way towards their stay and also gathering crowd of gambling in the community.
Seamless experience is what people expect with blockchains and a platform that can provide seamless experience to user, will be very attractive and favorite platform to use.

This shared experience with quick approval and processing for withdrawal from icopress means that Withdrawal approval on HugeWin is automatic, not manual. I know there will be cases with which platforms will do manual review and processing but such cases are not regularly seen.

Generally with quick withdrawal progress like this, HugeWin provides a good service for their users.

Happy Bitcoin's 4th halving!

I am happy that I have witnessed 3 Bitcoin halvings so far. Time flies so fast.

Some information for Bitcoin price, last 3 halvings. I plot the bar chart with the fourth halving price too. If people see this chart, zoom out, they will see nothing bearish with Bitcoin over many years.

One more thing to say, halving is a beginning, not the end.

This one now though is more interesting? Leverkusen actually if everyone remembers struggled very badly against lousy teams in Europa League. Atalanta, Roma, and Marseille are quite good teams, and the odds are more tempting, I think these are too much in favor of Leverkusen.



https://sportsbet.io/sports/event/soccer/international-clubs/uefa-europa-league/uefa-europa-league-23-24-64f4621a49a19800014d7fef
Leverkusen and Roma are strongest teams in Europa League semi finals but unfortunately, they will have to fight each other to find a winner for the final match. The odds is for Leverkusen as best winner candidate, next is for Atalanta and third is for Roma. It's not because Roma are weaker than Atalanta but only because Roma will have to beat Leverkusen to go to a final match.

Atalanta will have easier task, beating Marseille and have a final match. Leverkusen with their unbeaten record and Bundesliga title, are not an easy opponent for Roma and De Rossi to beat. Either Leverkuse or Roma win in semi finals, they will be considered as an upper team in the final match against either Atalanta or Marseille.

Was this an internal transfer between two Coinbase accounts or were you sending BTC to your brother's wallet?
If it is an internal transfer between two Coinbase accounts, it can be completed very quickly. It can be done shortly after Coinbase approve that internal transfer. In fact, more correctly, there is no transfer, it's just a credit from one account to another account with approval internally from Coinbase.

If it is an on chain transaction, it will be between to wallets and this will require on chain transaction fee.

Quote
The confirmation time for on-chain transactions can vary from practically instant (if you are lucky enough to have sent the transaction at the right moment), and you can wait 1 hour regardless of whether you have paid the priority fee.
It depends on network status, mempool condition, used fee rate for that transaction like high or low and depends on a luck factor too. If you are lucky, you can broadcast your transaction and some seconds later, a new block will be found and your transaction can be confirmed with that block.

Time gaps between blocks has information on it.

People say Bitcoin is too volatile..
We know who .. Cheesy

Well, Kudos to Bitcoin Maxis like Natalie Brunell ..

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PViqK_N2qIM

Gemini Summarization:

“This video is a debate between Natalie Brunell, a Bitcoin enthusiast, and Peter Schiff, an economist who argues for gold. The debate is about whether Bitcoin or gold is a better investment.
Peter Schiff is funny with his words in the debate on television and he is one of pro-anti-Bitcoin. After many years, many chances missed, he still is very anti-Bitcoin. Does he regret anything, only he knows about it.

I argue with people who use the word lucky for early bitcoin investors or any bitcoin investor at all who has accumulated a lot of bitcoin over the years
Luckiness has its role but is not decisive. If years ago like in 2009, 2010 or 2011, you knew about Bitcoin by any chance, it is lucky. Not all people were lucky enough to be exposed to Bitcoin in its early years.

However what you do after first exposure, is no longer luckiness but it depends on your thinking, belief in future of Bitcoin and your investment action to turn it to profit or fortune years later.

We all just know we can make money from the crypto market, but we don't know how to react according to the market. Without proper knowledge and research, we can't realise the scope of bitcoin investment.
From knowing about strategy to get profit to actually apply that strategy with good discipline and harvest profit for your investment, there are many barriers a long the adventure.

With people who invested in Bitcoin, gambled in Bitcoin in early years, they need to have very strong belief to hold their bitcoins many years. They need to learn fundamentals about Bitcoin private key and are carefully enough to do good and usable backups.

269  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Short-term holders now have about ~1.8M BTC on: April 18, 2024, 05:24:14 PM
I agree with the op that a very high amount of BTC in the hands of short-term holders is a positive thing for BTC price. Some might worry that it's a bad sign because if people aren't hodling long-term, they can as easily sell their BTC as they bought it and drive the price down. But, actually, short-term holding means that there's high liquidity, and that people are willing to exchange BTC. Because hodling is good for hodlers, but not good for a currency itself, as low liquidity would make the price artificial.
Are they worry opposite to what can cause a market dump?

Market will be dumped with massive selling pressure from whales, institutional investors, not from retail investors that are mostly short term holders. I understand that inexperienced people have many uncertainty and they can feel fearful with many things. This one is one of their wrong thinking and bad fear on things which are not too much important.

If they zoom out and discover that long term investors get very high ROI with investment in Bitcoin and holding it for years [1], they will no longer be fearful with short term holders.

This is good idea since a lot of people here could able to participate on the contest they possibly launch here. But maybe they are already good with current marketing method they use in this forum which is to launch there signature campaign that's why maybe they target the other people so that they can make sure that there exposure will be so great and they can get a lots of traffic with this.
A signature campaign is their start of advertisement on the forum and it has been run a long time enough. From their signature campaign's existing time in the forum, I smell that they saw profit, traffics from the campaign. As if they did not see any good effect from it, they will not prolong the campaign week by week and many weeks so far.

For other advertisement types, maybe they will launch it in future or might not launch anything if they see their advertisement on other platforms are enough.

When you spend more time in Bitcoin market, you will read more news about this market and Bitcoin. You will read many criticism or just hilarious and jealous comment that Bitcoin investors got profit because they were lucky.

In this thread, I simply give you two charts of Bitcoin and Gold.

Let me emphasize, it is not a comparison about Bitcoin and Gold, but my intention is to share a fact that intelligent investors got profit by their intelligent knowledge and decisions for investments, then good capital management. They did not get profit simply because of luckiness. Their profit did not come to them like airdrops without any knowledge and their own serious efforts with time.

See two charts and discover a fact that intelligent investors bravely buy in bear markets, when most serious tests on their belief and mentality. Price did not hold if there are not strong believers and investors. It's not luckiness for Bitcoin, Gold and their investors to hold price in bear markets and tested in many bear markets in history. Their cycles can be longer or shorter but you can see how psychology of market cycle works.

People say Bitcoin is too volatile but see the chart, and discover that Gold gets a correction about 40% and it needs about 10 years to have another bull run.

Each market has its own cycle and discover powerful effects of holding your bitcoins as you can see there.

Another merit source seems to have been banned. I think it will take a while before they remove him from the list.
The user can be considered as a forum OG and I guessed he is one of very early merit sources in the forum since January 2018. I read accusation on tyz for using AI and it's bad if he actually uses it systematically to make his posts.

5 days since his ban, he was not active with his account.

Today, stats are as follows
Quote
There are 108 merit sources with a total merit generation of up to 32890 sMerit per 30 days
It means no change from theymos.
273  Other / Meta / Re: Bitcointalk's important historic changes on: April 17, 2024, 03:49:03 PM
1.] The Merit System - big changes to the ranking system which still has people divided
and still generates a lot of discussion. There is generally a Love/Hate relationship with Merit.
Merit system changed the forum a lot, by its design and purpose, to help the forum better in quality. There are some changes in merit system since its kick-off too.

Quote
2.] Mixer Ban - this was a massive announcement recently which stirred up a lot of discussion
on the removal of Mixer service adverts and the restriction of posting links to services etc.
There is still grey area in the ban but if theymos sees it, he will ban anything that he considers as risk for the forum and himself because of existing or potential regulation in the USA. It's hard to say it is right or wrong but with his position, I understand why he decided to do that even in many years, theymos supports freedom.
274  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price history, ATHs and bottoms. on: April 17, 2024, 03:40:39 PM
but buying when the market crashes and there is a lot of FUD circulating will be better. This is buying at the right opportunity, not buying because of ongoing FOMO.
This is big challenge for all people in the market and for newbies, it is a more severe challenge. I used to be like this years ago when I was a newbie and I laugh when people say that any investor who get profit from Bitcoin investment is because of luckiness.

Luckiness is important in our life but I disagree with these people. Because you can not get profit if you don't accumulate Bitcoin in bear market or even in bull market with some fake cancelled bull run dips. You only can have chance to get profit if you determinant with purchase. It is your action to decide how you spend your capital and how you will get profit with investment.

If you are outsiders like these people, you will be like them, or like a famous man Peter Schiff, never buy bitcoins and never get profit from it.
275  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin trend accumulation score by cohorts on: April 17, 2024, 01:54:19 PM
After one month, perhaps it's good time to have an update on Bitcoin Trend accumulation score by cohorts. After some weeks of chaos and corrections, all cohorts are selling except the 10+ cohort which is still accumulating.

If you took profit during last four weeks, it's time to think of accumulation back. Weeks ago, I posted that Bitcoin probably will drop to $52k to $53k but I also want to emphasize that with order filling market, peak, bottom and accumulation phase of the market will be in range, not a price point.

So if you are going long term with Bitcoin, it's time for returning with accumulation.

Amazing performance from crystal palace and that's unbelievable defensive strategy from palace. The club knew if anfield was not a scary place anymore. I strongly believe this is a snowball effect from the lose against atalanta. Finally, liverpool was almost out from the title race. Liverpool needs only to bottled 1 more match and this gonna be a disaster for the club.
Klopp was so frustrated with it and yeah liverpool's chance to win EPL is just getting even smaller than before. Im so happy with this result. Im still waiting for arsenal to bottled the next game. The competition is getting tougher for any teams since the pressure is so high.
Liverpool got a second consecutive loss within a few days from Europa League to Premier League. This defeat puts Liverpool to a very bad situation, they are now at the third position and will have to hope magic comes to them in last 6 matches. They will need to pray that both Manchester City and Arsenal will lose points next 6 matches.

In this match, Liverpool let Crystal Palace opened it with a goal at 14th minute by Eze. I watched the goal and they let Crystal Palace too much space and time in that situation. With like 70 later minutes not included injury time, Liverpool fail to even just equalize the match. It's a very disappointed result for Liverpool and within a week, they started to see chance in Europa League and Premier League smaller dramatically.

The same thing I'm thinking about the textbox have an animation that could go through the label once gets clicked or just the plain textbox with the placeholder "Username" and "Password", also the Remember Me button i guess checkbox is enough not a sliding button. I just recently seen too the forgot password, "Forgot password?" is enough i guess and not the word I forgot password.. Hope HugeWin sees these feedbacks for better improvement too.
They can use long or short text in the text box in which their user will type in but they must make text in a text box and and a label different. Placing same text for both label and its text box (for typing) is very confusing.

Like my suggestions with both short and long solutions.

I think casinos should add it and make it compulsory for users to activate the 2FA, or if they don't or can't, add an email confirmation for withdrawals just to ensure it's not easily hack.
2FA is not mandatory even on centralized exchanges and don't request mandatory 2FA on gambling sites. It's an option for users and platforms can simply have a warning to their users, that 2FA will help to secure their accounts and funds better. Activate 2FA or not, it's choice of each user.

I know 2FA is to protect our account, but sometimes it affects our progress.

when I logged in, the SMS 2FA wasn't working because my country is blocking
It is because you chose a bad method for 2FA. SMS code is not a good 2FA method because you rely on the communication company to deliver SMS code to you. 2FA, strictly, means you control it on your device and don't have to rely on any company. It can work when you are offline too.

It is a thread for Shuffle, so your post is too much about FJ - kind of off topic, don't do it next time please.

I guess I want to give a small feedback on the website, first with the login, i guess there's another word suitable with your register, seems like its too long to read for newcomers in short it's just a signup. Ideally, use a universal design if possible.


Two boxes for users to type their username and email address should be in a blurry color like Grey or something similar. From your screenshots, it looks like similar texts and colors that can make confusing on where to type username and email address.

Or the HugeWin team can change it too either
