Do you need KYC for P2P on CEX?
You will have to do KYC to trade on P2P from CEX.

Some P2P exchanges allow their users to trade without KYC but they have limits for total trading volume of an account lifespan, after it passes the limit, the user will have to do KYC for continue trading.

There are truly P2P exchanges, without KYC.

do not use your old crypto wallet
Don't reuse your old wallets but don't throw them away. Make sure you always have back ups of your old wallets, just note them as old wallets for yourself to know in order to don't reuse them.

To avoid unnecessary mistakes it's better to download and create a new crypto wallet from scratch and keep the recovery seed offline, let what's bygone be bygone, new wallet is way safer.
It is easily to create a new wallet in cryptocurrency so it's a best practice to create new wallets when you are unsure about your practice in the past and when you need to expose your fund to a new platform, new smart contracts.

New projects have risk of some back doors or security issues so you must protect yourself at the start.

Al Hilal have a solid base in the league and they are almost unbeatable as they are beating every team that comes their way. They are so good and are the only obstacle that Al Nassr has in winning any trophy this season, Al Hilal Have surely won the league this season and also the favorites to win the AFC champions league, they don’t seem to be losing any game but if Al Nassr can put in lots of work they can win Al Hilal and go for the Champions League trophy.

Al Nassr have performed so well this season that it will be unfair if they don’t win any trophy this season, they deserve a trophy to their name this season because they have tried so hard after turning around their poor start.
Al Hilal are very strong and have better performances generally than Al Nassr so it's unfair for Al Hilal if they won't win Saudi Professional League. With a latest loss of Al Nassr, losing 1 - 3 at a home stadium, the competition for Saudi Professional League title ends here. It is impossible for Al Nassr to cath up Al Hilal as they began to get some worse performances and results recently when they actually need to have perfect results to wait for dropped points from Al Hilal.

Their competitor Al Hilal did not drop point and Al Nassr lost some points that make the race becomes worse for them.

Of course, everyone expects that after such a rapid increase, the price of bitcoin will have to adjust much more than we saw a day ago. But such a correction does not mean that the price will remain at this level for several years, since this is not the end of the bull market and we will still see the next high.
I expect Bitcoin will have another correction with $14,000 to $15,000 in price change but honestly I waited for its correction at lower price than at its latest peak above $69,000.

A big correction like -20% or more from around $69,000 or $67,000 will not be enough to bring Bitcoin back to $40,000. It was bottomed around $16,000 and price around $40,000 now is a dreaming entry price for many people who are newbies in this market or not newbies but hesitated to accumulate cheap Bitcoin months ago.
266  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Last price and mark price in taking profit on: March 07, 2024, 10:47:22 AM
If you set take profit at $5.679 and you use last price to set the TP order, the TP will be filled at $5.577 which is the mark price and which will make you not to earn the profit that you supposed to earn. But if you change the TP order to mark price, the order will be filled when the mark price get to $5.679.

How to set it to mark price depends on the exchange that you are using but you will ṣe it when you want to set the TP after you have opened a position.
You should use Limit order, not Market price order.

With market price order, you will have uncertain volatile exit price because it depends on the market, buy and sell orders. Must know that buy and sell orders are manipulated by trading bots too and those orders and order prices can be changed very quickly. If you are lucky, you will not have big difference when closing your position but if you are unlucky, the actual exit price will be considerable worse than your expected price.

Jürgen Klopp explains latest on Mo Salah and Dominik Szoboszlai fitness


Source: Liverpoolfc.com

This is great news for Liverpool fans. Liverpool's main striker Mohamed Salah will be seen with the squad in their next match. I don't think the Sparta Praha team is too strong though. But since the match is Sparta Praha's home match, Liverpool players will have to play carefully. If you make a mistake in this away match, there is a big possibility that Liverpool will lose or the match will be a draw. Klopp is an experienced coach. Hope he will not make any mistake in this match. Liverpool will try their hardest to win the Europa League title.
Liverpool really need to have Salah for their squad because is is their best attacking players recent seasons. I hope that Klopp and Liverpool are carefully with using Salah after his recovery. They must use him some minutes and increase the time of playing for Salah to help him gradually return and won't get another injury. Salah is necessary for Liverpool in many matches of season, not only a next match.

Quote
But I doubt whether Mohamed Salah will be in the starting XI against Sparta Prague. Klopp will probably not take this risk. Salah is back with the squad after a long time. Also, more important than the win against Sparta Praha is getting points against Manchester City in their next match. Liverpool will definitely need Mohamed Salah if they want to perform well against City. Looking forward to see what Klopp decides.
I have same thinking too as Liverpool will only reserve Salah on bench and only use him for several minutes in the second half. They can use Salah when result is bad and they need to equalize it or good and they feel safely to use Salah.

Liverpool are powerful to beat Sparta Praha even without using Salah and by this, they have no reason to hurry using the player.

360 seconds equal to 6 minutes that is not too long waiting time.

For a newbie, they don't have much knowledge and idea (most of them) so 6 minutes in waiting time is not too long.

It is forum limit on posting and is a barrier to stop spammers, bumping services.

There were no surprising results in the second match between Bayern Munich vs Lazio and also Real Sociedad vs PSG, the victory of the two favorite teams was according to predictions, in fact there was nothing to worry about because both of them could be said to have won easily, even though Bayern Munich lost the first match but the goal margin was small enough to make it easier for them to catch up, while PSG only needs a draw but they still play with full strength to get a second win because their opponents have not been very good in recent matches.
It is not a surprising result because Bayern Munich created many opportunities in a first match in Rome. At home, they finished opportunities better and done what they need to complete. Lazio are simply weaker and not competitive enough to beat Bayern Munich after two matches. Bayern Munich can move forwards after this win but they still have problems need to be fixed. Will they continue fighting in Bundesliga or only focus on Champions League?

Their plan for it will help them to be stronger in Champions League in case they decide to sacrifice Bundesliga.

Quote
Kylian Mbappe scored two goals in this match and he has scored a total of six goals in the Champions League this season and that is the same number as scored by Harry Kane and with both teams still progressing, both players still have the opportunity to score more goals, including Erling Haaland who in the match against Copenhagen it is very likely to score goals.
Mbappe are shining very last matches for PSG in Champions League and in this season. It will be his big success and great gift for PSG board members and fans if he wins Champions League with them in this season.

Kane is chasing for a first title in his career with his club and in this season, he will seriously play for it in Champions League while Bundesliga looks to be impossible to win. He is also a player for big matches and might score more goals for Bayern Munich in quarter finals.

This season Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester City are fighting themselves for the trophy and from the look of things the three teams are in good form and none of them is planning on slowing down. From observations Liverpool are doing well this season but they are currently suffering from injuries which has led to the absence of their key players which might have effect on them on them along the way.
These three competitors are very closely with each other on the ranking table and total points they have. They all are contributing to make the title race very exciting and unpredictable. Arsenal and Manchester City are fighting in Champions League and Liverpool are fighting in Europa League. Their fixtures will be so heavy in coming months and player injuries will be one of their main concerns and can affect the title race a lot.

Quote
City and Arsenal are currently in beast mode winning every single opponent that comes their way, Arsenal’s current results in the league has been surprising, wining back to back matches with 5 goals margin which can only mean one thing that they more than ready to challenge for the title this season.
They have beast modes but they can not win Premier League if they can not maintain it and fail to flip Liverpool on the ranking table. Liverpool are not in beast mode and did not have big wins recent matches but they simply made their job done well. Liverpool have some injured players and it affects their performances recent weeks but soon this problem will disappear with returns of these players.
271  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC created new ATH before Halving: are you surprised? on: March 06, 2024, 02:10:44 AM
I don't understand why there are some people who voted for "I'm really surprised because this has never happened in history"
Because this is not the first time in history we have experienced this, where we experienced a massive pump before the Bitcoin block halved.
Before the halving, Bitcoin historically has big price volatility, pumps and crashes. We just have about 15% correction before a halving that is needed for the market to reset.

Gamblers with overzealous leverages must be washed out of the market, to clean the market, and it is a necessary preparation for a halving and big parabolic bull run after that. I am optimistic to see the correction finally happened because the market will be more easily pumped from here.

did you know after the 2013 ATH, the correction actually went below $100 due to MTGox closed deals. yet if you check any of the "historic" price charts the social sentiment that designed the charts ignores the depths MTGox landed at on its closing, (meaning they excluded the lows MTGox recorded)
Market now is bigger than in 2013 and price on site like Coinmarketcap, Coingecko is averaged price and they have own formulas for price calculation.

Quote
same went for the 2021 high. some went above $69k but on average of multiple exchanges of $68.5k most just say $68500 for social sentiment
and given time, some will round todays top too
Because it is the average number, it is not important to say what is a highest price of Bitcoin. ATH needs to be much higher than 2021 all time high and it means nothing if a new all time high is only $50 or $100 or $200 higher than 2021 ATH.

It can play roles for psychology of market participants but the bull run is only started. Higher highs will be seen soon in coming months of 2024 and 2025.
272  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC created new ATH before Halving: are you surprised? on: March 05, 2024, 08:39:34 PM
About a year ago I figured it could very well hit the ATH, or at least come close to it, like getting back to $60k, by the time of the halving. But then as of this Fall when it was still only in the mid-to-high $30,000s I figured it'd take until the summer to break the ATH.

Then the ETFs got approved and TradFi started nonstop piling into Bitcoin, and here we are with the ATH taken down suddenly with a month and a half before the halving. Been a pretty great last 14 months for Bitcoin from $16k to $69k!
Bitcoin made me surprised by rising and rising before and after Bitcoin Spot ETF approvals but the new all time high is not too convincing. Bitcoin just has its correction immediately after hitting that price.

I really waited for a correction of Bitcoin and finally it comes, but honestly I expect it to happen sooner than today, start at lower price.

Unfortunately, with a correction after making a new all time high, it looks not good as price returns to only below $60,000. Assume the price in OP is a new all time high, on Binance I see it hits only $69,000.
273  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: March 05, 2024, 10:16:19 AM
The remaining 12 matches should indeed open up opportunities for Al-nassr to catch up with Al-hilal. But expecting Al-hilal to lose points in the few remaining matches this season would be very difficult for us to believe. Because we can see that all the top teams in the SPL have not managed to beat Al-Hilal this season. So we cannot hope that teams at lower levels can make Al-hilal lose points.
We need to consider that how big the difference is, it is 9 points, and with only 12 remaining match days in Saudi Professional League, it's not easy for Al-Nasrr to catch up with Al-Hilal. You can look at the total conceded goals of Al-Hilal, only 11 conceded goals after 22 matches. With that strong defense power, it is hard to score a goal against Al-Hilal and this difficulty limits chances for their opponents to beat Al-Hilal.

Quote
Al-Nassr also did not appear to be in good condition. Like in the round of 16, first leg of the AFC Champions League, we can see that Al-Nassr has just lost to Al Ain. But I hope Al-Nassr in the SPL remains consistent and can continue to collect points perfectly.
This is another reason to make Al-Nassr more difficult to catch up with Al-Hilal. They are not in a good form with two matches without winning, one draw and one defeat. If Al-Nassr gets like one more draw or one more defeat in Saudi Professional League, chances will be out of their reach soon.

You're actually talking about trust ?
We do need trust or belief in what we invest in. The asset can be Bitcoin, altcoin or gold but we need to trust that asset before spending money. If our trust or belief comes from due diligent research and knowledge, we are intelligent investors. If trust or belief comes from words of mouth without research and knowledge, we are not intelligent investors.

Quote
I guess you're referring to cryptocurrency not bitcoin cause people who invested on some random coin never had the chance to make profit but bitcoin investment works different.
Altcoins can help us to get profit but the risk with altcoins is we hardly to secure profit. They mostly have short lifespans, not like Bitcoin and they mostly fail to recover after one bear market.

Yeah Al-Nassr seems difficult to score or equate the score they were left behind one goal and the match left 10 minutes in regular time but usually Al-Nassr can give a surprise in the 90+ minute so let's just wait. By the way, it doesn't matter if Al-Nassr loses today because there is still a second leg and the second leg will be played at Al-Nassr home on March 12. I personally believe that Al-Nassr can go through this quarter final  and hope they can reach the final against teams from Saudi Pro League, maybe Al-Hilal.
This is a difficult match for Al-Nassr and they lost it but they still have a second leg match at home to flip the result and move next. This is not a good match from Al-Nassr but with this minimal defeat, their chance is still good and with their power, they can have a win at home, even a big win.

Quote
This season the Asian Champions League is dominated by a team from Saudi Pro League at least 3 teams are in the Quarter Final  but unfortunately one of them had to be kicked out because Al-Ittihad fought each other against Al-Hilal and of course we can predict who the winners in this fight. Al-Hilal is a favorite team in this tournament, I don't see any other teams commensurate except Al-Nassr.
Because this league has good financial support from their government through PIF which clubs in Qatar does not have. Saudi Arabia clubs were already strong even years before latest massive financial support from PIF so with his new financial inflow and star players, it's logic to see their clubs increase power and domination in AFC Champions League.

Neymar and Messi are close friends in a way, they played together at Barcelona and they were probably one of the most dominant era of Barcelona as well, and Suarez is there too which would mean the greatest trio that played together would be back together.

Messi is still playing great, Suarez does play well but he is hurting which means that it would be hard for him, plus it would also mean that Neymar would need to stay safe and not get injured. I am not entirely sure if it would work with all three. Neymar just needs to retire if you ask me, I know that sounds harsh but that dude had so many injuries that it will really hurt him when he is older, if he doesn't stop now, he will have a terrible old life, this would be for his benefit.
Messi and Suarez are more professional with their bodies and career than Neymar. I am not a fan of Neymar or anti-Neymar but I believe this statement is true about Neymar and his professionality. We saw many times he returned to his club after summer vacaction with overweight body and needs like 1 month or more to reduce his weight for being readily for a season.

Now in Saudi Arabia, his body looks worse and does not like a body of a professional footballer.

Girona started the season very well and they had perfect performances in all the ages we saw from them but I think time after time they lose their potential and they can't have good performances like the other games we saw from this team.
Girona lost it with a 1-0 result and now it seems more than anything Real Madrid is happy to see Girona losing points because they have have better situation in the race they have with Girona at the top of the La Liga table.


It was not expected that Girona can play well enough to be in top six or top four and they actually did better than any expectation of their fans. Staying in top four, and more than that staying at the first and second positions many weeks till the very last matches of La Liga, it is massively impressive performance from Girona in this season.

Their decreasing performances are more predictive as with their resources, it's hard to maintain good performances through a very long season. I only hope they will have a happy ending in this season like finishing this season in top four.

Here we can see how Haaland plays in an important match like this and Foden supports attacks from the other side that managed to score 2 goals, yeah that's how Manchester City if playing with the main squad continue to attack for 90 minutes lol. Manchester City recorded 27 shots and 8 of them were on target whereas Manchester United only have one shot on target and it's a goal, although Manchester United scored the first goal, they could not take advantage of the moment it should be the right time to destroy the opponent's mentality.
Haaland in this season is very different than himself last season as he wasted many opportunities. In Manchester Derby, it is lucky for Haaland that Foden helped Manchester City equalized and led the opponent with his two goals before Haaland finalized the match.

If this derby match ends with a loss for Manchester City, Haaland will be name as one of worst player in this match and a main reason for Manchester City defeat.

Now, with this won derby, Manchester City continue to run with Liverpool with one point less. They both have hard matches in the weekend but both solved the match to have three points. They are waiting for Arsenal to perform well and leave the competitor behind.
279  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: March 04, 2024, 02:47:54 AM
I personally don't really care about PSG two draws in Ligue 1 match because maybe Enrique is still trying out several strategies and tactics and also about a rotation. Because, even though in the last two matches PSG only got a draw, but in reality PSG is still safely at the top of the standings and still has a gap of 9 points with the team that is currently in second place . But indeed,ofcourse it would be a different assessment if PSG failed in the Champions League, because PSG should still get goodresults in the last 16 of the Champions League. That way, I think PSG is still fine at this moment, and for me there is nothing to worry at all about PSG results in Ligue 1 because after all, in the end PSG will still get the Ligue 1 trophy and that's for sure.
Trying with new tactics and player rotations are good for Enrique and PSG as they still have a safe difference against Brest in Ligue 1. With 9 points more than Brest, the closest competitor in Ligue 1, PSG are free to do some tactical trials and rotate their players. It is more important for Enrique and PSG to prepare for more important matches in Champions League than wasting too much energy and focus on Ligue 1.

They don't have much pressure from Brest and no big challenge in Ligue 1 where they seem to win a title easily in this season. In Champions League, they will have maximum 5 more matches and they will be be all important for PSG. First they need to go to quarter final round and win maximum 5 more matches to make an achievement for their club, a first Champions League title.
