261  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will BTC dip again? on: March 25, 2024, 08:32:21 AM
Yesterday bitcoin was still trading below 64k$ and many people were waiting for bitcoin to drop to 59k$ to accumulate more bitcoin, but today bitcoin is trading above 67k$. From there we can say that if you want to accumulate a lot of bitcoins, you should accumulate them as soon as possible, don't hesitate or wait because no one is talented enough to predict the movement of bitcoins. I believe that bitcoin will continue to increase as the halving event gets closer, so you should reconsider your investment plan.

We never know the exact prediction for the ATH that can be reached before or after the halving, the current market scenario has the potential to see a rise higher to reach the actual ATH and we will not know when it will be realized, but I am sure we will soon see a price of $100k for ATH next. However, the current market scenario is not very suitable for short-term trading strategies because the movement patterns in 2021 can occur at any time, so consider all aspects of market movements before investing at prices above 60k unless you decide for long-term investments, if the next correction occurs it will last 50k before the bull market is ready to set its next record ATH.
While some traders take advantage of short-term volatility to take profits, you say this is not the right time for short-term trading. Market patterns are difficult to predict, but some people who are truly capable of analyzing them manage to profit from price volatility. I agree that long term investment is better than trading, but not everyone agrees on this especially if they are a trader.

So far I don't think $100k can be reached before the halving, unless there is a huge influx of funds flooding the market ahead of the halving. Such a scenario is starting to become hard to hope for, so now it may be time to focus on the long term in the hope that $100k can be touched a few months after the halving.
The $100K  price can be reached before the halving and what we are seeing now in the market is the last market correction before another pre-halving bull happens. The major concept of the correction is to strengthen the market but that doesn't mean the correction is not good for short-term trading/investment it only depends on the trader's/investor's capacity about the market.

Aafter the approval of Bitcoin ETF, the price of Bitcoin has increased significantly and touched an all-time high. With just over a month to go before the Bitcoin halving, we have seen the highest Bitcoin price in the Bitcoin market. The market has now corrected from there after the price of Bitcoin hit its all-time high, bringing the price of Bitcoin to $64,000.You said bitcoin price correction doesn't mean it is good for short term trade or investment I think you are wrong. Normally we wait to invest when the market dips then we buy but now the market is correcting so now may be our time.

I also think this correction is not good for traders and short-term investors because bitcoin dropped suddenly, and I bet no one can react in time when bitcoin drops. Don't forget that bitcoin is unpredictable and also since we cannot predict when bitcoin will rise and when bitcoin will correct, holding for the long term is always the best strategy. When bitcoin rose to $73k, everyone expected it to continue at $75k or higher, but it eventually corrected. How many traders predicted this and opened a short position? I dare to confidently tell you that no one dares to do that.

I actually took out my coins before the correction. The key
here is that when you have made profits and it has reached the
price you wanted it to reach just take it out and even though
there were a couple thousands that I missed, I was glad I did not
get stuck when it corrected as that would have been worse.

Battling with FOMO is definitely not for the weak.

Are you a trader or a long-term holder? And if it is true that you took profits when bitcoin reached 73k$ then I am really surprised and respect you because you are the only person so far I know who sold bitcoin when the price was above 70k$ and waited for it to accumulate again. Honestly, at this stage we should focus on long-term investing rather than short-term trading because bitcoin can increase sharply at any time and optimization is not suitable at this stage.

I am also a trader but at this stage I spend no more than 10% of my capital on trading because I know that if I try to optimize the amount of bitcoin by buying low and selling high.  There's a good chance I'll miss out on a big bull run if bitcoin suddenly increases in price. And in recent days, I couldn't take profits when bitcoin suddenly corrected. To be frank, I have just failed with my recent trades.

Bangladesh have a big task to accomplish tomorrow, they need 464 more runs and not much batsmen left for batting. Kamindu Mendis scored back to back centuries in both innings and what a test match he has. Kamindu Mendis and Dhananjaya de Silva are the real heroes for Sri Lanka in this match. Still a test match to come after that, so Bangladesh still have a chance to level the series provided they play well in the upcoming match.    
In 2nd innings Sri lanka made 418 runs excellent innings played by youngster Kamindu Mendis of 164 runs and captain de silva of 108 runs help team SL to post a great total of 510 runs after 6 wickets Bangladesh bowlers failed to break the partnership of 164 runs between two players Bangladesh are 47/5 and day 3 stumps off excellent bowling by Vishwa Fernando takes 3 wickets Bangladesh need 464 runs and 5 wickets in hand now and clearly match was in Sri lanka hand because it will be impossible to chase this huge target there top orders are gone and no chance of Bangladesh team to won this game



The way Bangladesh started their second innings, I doubt whether Bangladesh will be able to muster up to 100 runs. However, the two batsmen at the crease, Mominu Haque and Taijul, are very experienced.

Dhananjaya De Silva and Kamindu Mendis' batting partnership gave Sri Lanka a huge target of 511 runs. Sri Lanka team collected 418 runs in the second innings. The target is very big, and I was sure that Bangladesh will lose this match. Even then I thought we will see some good batting from the batsmen of Bangladesh. Bangladesh's batsmen may reduce the margin of defeat. But every batsman in the top order batted like a fool. We saw very boring batting from Bangladeshi batsmen. Bangladesh is probably going to be defeated by a margin of 400 runs.

I don't understand why Atletico Madrid is trying to portray Joao Felix as their opponent; he scored a goal against his team after joining Barcelona on loan, and he celebrated it. There is nothing wrong with that. Atletico Madrid didn't value Joao Felix, so he moved to Barcelona, where he will perform and be valued. Joao Felix is a star player that every team would want to have, so why is the coach at Atletico Madrid so opposed to him and doesn't rank him among his best players?

Joao Felix appears happy, and if Barcelona signs him, that will be the best thing because Atletico Madrid is not happy with him right now and views him as their biggest enemy because he scored goals in both of their matches this season. His loan contract expires in a few months, and if he returns to Atletico Madrid, I doubt they will even want to see him play a single game. Barcelona is the team that can set the player free by signing him permanently, but they have always struggled financially, so purchasing Joao Felix won't be cheap.
Regarding Real Madrid and Barcelona, Real Madrid was the team that always had better players and a better financial situation compared to Barcelona. Now it seems Barcelona has some problems with keeping the players they already have like Joao Felix but Real Madrid is thinking about hiring even more players.
Alphonso Davies is the next target for Real Madrid, he is currently the player of Bayern Munich but he received an offer from Bayern Munich so far and he wanted to think about the other offers he can get. The contract of Alphonso Davies ends in 2025 and Real Madrid sent an offer of 50 million euros for him while Bayern Munich wants 60-70 million euros for this Canadian player.


To be fair, Real could wait just one more year and they could get him for free, and if Alphonso Davies already have a verbal agreement that he will join, then Real actually has a better chance. They are just asking for one year of Davies and 50 million for only a single year of him is still a lot of money.

Bayern should not be looking for more and more, not saying that Davies doesn't deserve that, he deserves every penny, but if Bayern can't get him to extend his contract, then what's the point of asking for that much money? One year of Davies is very well worth 50 million, probably less, because it is just one year and we should probably not expect Real Madrid to be willing to pay more than that eventually so we should be fine.

I don't think waiting will be the right choice. Because in this 1 year of time many things could happen. A new team might join the competition of signing him and offering him a better wage and all that and sign him. On the other hand, Bayern Munich are not playing him. So there is a chance he might lose his form and then he won’t have any value in signing. So waiting is not the best option here right now.

I think any player that is on the opposition team should be considered an enemy. Because he is playing against you regardless of whether he has played for you before or not. But football is a gentleman’s game and there should be nothing that would break the morality of the game. And to me, it felt like none of the team did that. The game is the game, it must go on. If anything these fights (within limit of course) makes the game more exciting.
265  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 24, 2024, 01:23:12 PM
~~ Snip ~~

Among the remaining 9 matches, in terms of quality, of course, there is no club that might be able to prevent Intermilan from winning the Scudetto this season, because indeed the pessimistic attitude we have today is of course based on the reality that exists when Intermilan currently has performance and quality far above other Serie A teams, with a gap of 14 points that exist now, of course we are just waiting for time to see Intermilan celebrate the Scudetto in time is not far away.

I personally predict that the game against Milan will be a celebration of Inter Milan's Scudetto, because I think the match will be very crucial to make it even more impossible for Milan to chase points, currently the only way for Milan to thwart Intermilan's Scudeto faster is to beat Intermilan in the derby and they can no longer lose the rest of the season,  So that makes Intermilan have to celebrate the Scudetto towards the end of the season and not even make AC Milan languish even more when Intermilan has to celebrate the Scudetto at home Milan.
On paper, Inter Milan has a big chance of locking up the Scudetto more quickly, thanks to the point difference that has been formed at this time. If Milan does not consistently secure full points in the following matches, then Inter Milan can seal the Scudetto more quickly. There are several important matches that Inzaghi squad must face in the future, one of which is facing eternal rival Milan. I predict victory will return to Inter Milan side like in the first half of the season, considering that Inter Milan is now only focused on Serie A. in my opinion, the competition for the Scudetto is over, because it's just a matter of time.

On the other hand, the more interesting competition in the future is the fight for fourth place in the standings, Bologna and Roma are now competing fiercely to get tickets to appear in the Champions League next season. It can be said that Milan and Juventus will not be knocked out of the top four, so the remaining tickets will continue to be up for grabs until the end of the season. The difference in points between Bologna and Roma is very small, so the two teams need to try hard to ensure a place in the top four. With Roma current performance improving, De Rossi looks like he will be able to bring his squad to overtake Bologna.

I don’t think there is any point in predicting or discussing who will be the champions of Serie A this season because it is pretty much clear at this point that Inter Milan will be the champions of Serie A this season. The point gap is too huge and 9 matches are not enough to coming close to Inter Milan let alone prevent them from winning Serie A.

The relegation battle is rather more exciting. It is getting very spicy out there. There is only a 4 point difference between the 13th placed team and 18th placed team. No one in this range should be feeling safe about their stay in Serie A for next season. I believe Salernitana will be relegated this season. They have only 14 points right now. The comeback from this will be too hard and pretty much impossible.

The 4th place fight is also very exciting as Bologna and Roma are fighting for it. But I think the way Roma are playing right now, they will take it.

I have heard a saying since I was younger. "Good things come to those who wait".
I think that is something Alonso is also thinking about. Because we all know he has not spoken out about his future.
He has also not approached any club. The clubs are all interested in him. But can't find there has been any official advancement to sign him.
So there is a very good chance that he actually stays and when Carlo Ancelotti actually leaves Real Madrid, he replaces him.
Actually, that is not a bad idea. The one thing he will have to make sure though is he still brings in a good performance with Leverkusen.

I am of the opinion that a special thread be dedicated to Xavi Alonso  Grin
As funny as this might sound, it is important to note and acknowledge that Xavi Alonso has actually done extraordinary well this season. If many expected this to happen I am not among those many. I am among the few that thought that the German Bundesliga season will end as usual. But Xavi Alonso took many people by surprise and even up to the European competitions, this guy is still doing great. I am not surprised that many clubs are interested in his services because he has proven himself to be a special and an extraordinary new talent in the coaching industry. In as much as both Liverpool and Bayern Munich and even the Real Madrid had once have him as their players, I would definitely want Xavi Alonso to come to England to compete with Guardiola and as such I will have Etche opportunity to watch him every weekend.

Well, actually I am not going to be mad if a special thread is dedicated to Xavi Alonso  Cheesy
But jokes aside he did have a great impact and it is almost like a youngster coming forward through the ranks. It's like when we first saw Lionel Messi or Neymar. Just convert it to the coaching world. That's the level of impact he has had. And you have to realize that this is a moment where good coaches are hard to come by. So it is obvious people are going to talk about him a lot.

It will be a good test of his skill if he actually goes to the English Premier League. And I think he will also do well in the English Premier League. Unless he chooses to be the coach of Manchester United over Chelsea. Because that would be a suicide of his career.



Lol, this is funny, but frankly, if Xabi Alonso deserves a thrown of his own, I think Mbappe should have had one by now for a very long time! Cheesy If Mbappe had his own thread here, we would probably soon be looking at at least 200 pages of posts...

But yes jokes aside, he is an interesting personality without a doubt, but there should be caution that we don't exaggerate. I mean it is not impossible that he goes to another club and gets fired within the six months. If he goes to Liverpool or Bayern and the teams don't perform, which is a possibility, the big adventure could be over faster than anyone thought it would.

Well, I really think that is not going to happen. I mean it is not impossible to happen. But with the performance that he has shown, that also with a quite weak opponent, I do not think he will have a big problem managing a big club. Him getting fired in 6 months can obviously happen. But that is highly unlikely in my opinion.
267  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will BTC go back to $40K - $30K range before a bigger rally? on: March 24, 2024, 08:46:06 AM
If he is expecting that bitcoin price would fall so deeply, I think that’s quite impossible already as $60k might be its deepest price before bitcoin halving will hit the market. Although this remains a speculation but for now, it seems the price of bitcoin would not fall below $60k anymore. Otherwise, people would be in panic selling again most especially those who have bought bitcoin within these past few weeks when bitcoin has crossed the last ATH.

In cryptocurrency market nothin can be impossible because you may have seen that how quickly the price changes from higher to lower and from lower to higher. May be if Conditions remains positive as halving is near so we will not see more dip than 60k$ but it is the reality that price can go down and recover back again easily and quickly.

We should avoid our emotions here because it's normal but it is important to continue your holding without any worries about future because halving will bring unexpected higher worth. I think those does not have any good idea or have no trust on bitcoin who sells their bitcoin now at the price of 64k$ because everyone is confidential with the naked truth that price will enhance after halving.

It's true that anything can happen and we cannot predict the future. But if you look at current market conditions, we are entering a bullish cycle, not preparing for a market winter. So, there's nothing wrong with people saying that a bitcoin drop to $40k is unlikely or will never happen. I support this view, bitcoin will have corrections but a drop below $50k is unlikely to happen again, those who are waiting for a bigger drop to buy will definitely regret it.

Bangladesh Women's team faces Australia Women's team in second ODI match today. Bangladesh Women's team lost the first match by 118 runs. And Bangladesh lost all wickets to collect only 95 runs.

In the second match too, the batsmen of Bangladesh women's team batting is very weak. In 41 overs, Bangladesh women's team lost 9 wickets to collect only 85 runs. I don't understand why the Bangladesh women's team took the decision to bat after winning the toss. The Bangladesh captain is well aware that he does not have experienced batsmen in his squad. Due to the bad batting of the Bangladeshi batsmen, the match has become completely one-sided. It is not surprising that Australia won this match without losing any wicket.

Real Madrid have taken a significant step towards securing the La Liga title after a resounding 4-2 victory over Osasuna. After winning this match, Madrid have widened the gap to 8 points ahead of Barcelona(who are currently in 2nd position),  solidifying their position as the top contenders for 36th La Liga title, a feat that would extend their record beyond any other team in the table.

Real Madrid is available with the La Liga title in my opinion. There is no chance any team is actually going to be able to stop Real Madrid from winning the La Liga title this season.

The second team on the table Barcelona currently has their own problems going on. You know they have to think about the teams that are below them. So I do not think Barcelona is going to pose any threat to Real Madrid at this moment. At this moment Real Madrid is going to concentrate on the Champions League more now as they have up really good advantage in La Liga.

The real competition is going to be between Barcelona and Girona for the second position. And a bigger competition for the fourth position is going to be between Athletic Club and Atletico Madrid.

Real Madrid to hijack Alonso from Liverpool and Bayern
Both Liverpool and Bayern Munich view their ex-player as the number one option to replace their outgoing coaches, Jurgen Klopp and Thomas Tuchel. Honorary Bayern president Uli Hoeneß confirmed earlier this week that the Bavarians are in talks with Alonso, but he also hinted at a potential involvement of Real Madrid in the saga.

Delhi Capitals and Punjab Kings
The match between Delhi Capitals and Punjab Kings already started. The performance of Delhi Capitals is still going well. At the end of 8 overs, they got 74 runs and in this 8 overs, David Warner Patel was caught out. Sharma took a nice catch. Now it seems that Delhi Capitals are going to come under a bit of pressure as David Warner was a big wicket for them. Their current run rate is over 9.2 and there Run collected in the last five overs is 42. Since the field is batting friendly and it is a T20 format, if you don't put up a good score here, the opponent will win easily.
I will choose Delhi Capitals for my betting on this match. Now let's see how many runs they can take till the last.
I have doubt you will lose your bet in today match among Delhi Capitals sqaud against Punjab Kings squad because after 11 overs Delhi Capitals squad only collected only 38 more scores in 6 overs almost. I expected big scores scores from Delhi Capitals squad side but they did not displayed a such performance in batting Inning. After Rishabh Pant captain of squad was wiped out from crease at 18 scores. Next batter Tristan Stubbs was cleared out by a nice catch of Jitesh Sharma and another Jitesh Sharma caught Ricky Bhui's wicket. Only two overs behind for play, Delhi Capitals squad successfully collected 147 scores and I believe that they will get 25 more scores and at last they set 173 to 175 scores which seem a average defeating target.

Looking at the Delhi squad I thought I would probably see my 200+ score in today's match. Delhi's batting order is very strong. There are several T20 specialist batsmen in the Delhi squad. The four batsmen in the top order David Warner, Mitchell Marsh, Rishab Pant and Shai Hope are capable of playing big innings each, as well as batting at a smart strike rate. But in today's match, Delhi's top order did not play well as expected.

Shai Hope scored maximum 33 runs for the team. Shai Hope collected 33 runs from 25 balls. Delhi can collect 149 runs in 19 overs. Let's see how many runs Delhi batsmen can collect in the last over.

Edit: what a batting! Delhi's batsmen collected 25 runs in the last over. And Delhi set a target of 175 runs descent. Even after giving a target of 175 runs, I would say that Punjab's chances of winning are still high. But Abhishek Porel's innings of 32 runs off 10 balls was very enjoyable.

It is certain that the price of bitcoin will increase, the more one invests, the more bitcoins one can get out of the fit. If you look at the previous halving year 2020, Bitcoin price peaked at $69k in 2021. So currently bitcoin price is 73k dollar, I think 2024 halving bitcoin price will touch 100k dollar. So for now we have to wait till 2032 for it to reach 1 million dollars. That would be possible because the price of Bitcoin is the highest in every Bitcoin cycle.
Certainly it is. However, the problem is we can’t tell exactly as to when will bitcoin price reach that point. We have been witnessing bitcoin price continue surging every year until it reaches its new all time high. But due to its high volatility, its price suddenly falls backs when fluctuations or price correction appears, and there’s nothing we can do to control that. So if ever bitcoin price will hit $1m 5 or 10 years from now, then it would mean exceptional profits for all of us. This is the reason why I always believe hodling is the key, but of course selling at some point should not be overlook as we are here to gain that profits, not to keep those profits forever.

I agree, bitcoin could reach $1 million in the future if demand for it continues to grow higher for years to come. But if we claim that it will happen in 2032, it is somewhat subjective and a bit exaggerated. Don't forget that bitcoin is unpredictable, so don't be too subjective with your judgment and always have a backup plan.

Also, you're right, we have to sell a portion of the bitcoin at some point to make a profit. If we don't sell and hold bitcoin forever then our investment will be useless.

But after that $73k big run, now the price goes down hard again, $62k as of this time and hopefully there will be no more downward pattern for us. Maybe some of us are used to see the price going up and so we can only wish that the bleeding will stop at least at $60k levels.
You cannot expect bitcoin to rise to $100k without any correction. In my opinion, bitcoin touching $73k and then correcting to $62k is necessary and completely reasonable, it is not a sign for us to panic and dump the price. Why don't you take this opportunity to accumulate more bitcoin before bitcoin continues its journey to conquer $100k, why be afraid if bitcoin drops to $60k or below $60k? If bitcoin suddenly rose to $100K without any correction, that would be scary, IMO.

First match captained by Ruturaj and it resulted in a win. What a start from the CSK team. RCB were completely clueless throughout the whole match. All thanks to Mustafijur Rahman for his brilliance bowling. We all knew Dhoni was still the on field captain for the team and he really managed the bowling and fielding well. A great match to start the Tournament I must say. Let’s see what happens in the next matches.
This young Bangladeshi bowler Mustafizur Rahman he performed well in the first match, Chennai Super King team performance was so good that they beat Royal Challenger Bangalore very easily. Only Mustafizur Rahman's bowling kept Royal Challengers Bangalore under heavy wicket pressure. So I give the most importance to Mostafizur Rahman as the role of victory in this match.

28-year-old Mustafizur Rahman can no longer be called young. Mustafiz is a regular player of Bangladesh national team and now he is quite an experienced bowler.

Mustafiz changed the entire scenario of the match against Bengaluru. He made a breakthrough at a crucial time. Bengaluru's two openers started very well. Bengaluru's batting slowed down due to Mustafiz picking up two wickets of Du Plessis and Patidar in 1 over at the crucial moment. And then Virat Kohli and Cameron Green were trying to get set at the crease. Even if these two players stayed at the crease, Bengaluru would probably have set a target of 200+ runs. But due to Mustafiz's excellent bowling, Kohli and Green could not extend their innings.

It is difficult to win against a team like Chennai, given a target of 174 runs on this batting friendly pitch. Chennai have a lot of experienced batsmen in their squad.

Leipzig is also in the Bundesliga not in La Liga and I think you are a little mistaken in this regard and for Stuttgart they just need to maintain their own position until the end of the season by continuing to win in every remaining game. And at least Stuttgart can be in that position in order to enter the Champions League competition next season, because Leipzig is still hindered by Dortmund in terms of fighting for the top four positions in the Bundesliga standings.
In the next match, Stuttgart will meet Heidenheim and in my opinion this will be an easy match for Stuttgart to win at the end of the month, at least Stuttgart needs two wins to take second place from Bayern Munich and I am very confident that Stuttgart is capable of doing that.
Stuttgart should worry more about staying in the third place rather than fighting Bayern Munich. I mean having a good ambition is something that every team should have but right now and after several mistakes, they found themselves third and risking to lose it in the upcoming rounds if they got a negative result.
Their next game will be against Heidenheim which should not be that hard. The match after will be against Borussia Dortmund were the gap risk to shrink between these two teams!



Stuttgart's aim should be to qualify for the Champions League. Stuttgart does not yet have the ability to compete with Bayern Munich. Bayern Munich have had a somewhat erratic performance this season. Munich will not win the Bundesliga title. Even so, the Munich team is not weak. And in the last three matches, Munich have played brilliantly. Munich's players have scored 13 goals in the last two matches. The Munich team is in good form now.

Stuttgart should compete with Dortmund. In the upcoming matches, Stuttgart will face strong teams like Leverkusen, Dortmund, Munich and Frankfurt. So Stuttgart has the possibility of losing points in each of these matches if they do not perform well. And so if Stuttgart wants to be in the top three of the table, the team will have to continue their good performance.

BTC will be fully in existence and all mining activities will have to cease at the time.
I though this was basic knowledge for all Bitcoin supporters, that mining doesn't stop even after the entire Bitcoin supply has been mined.

But I don't understand this, can you explain more clearly? When all 21 million bitcoins have been mined, what does it mean to maintain mining machines? And who will operate those miners if they are no longer profitable for miners? I believe that if the price of bitcoin does not continue to increase and is no longer profitable for miners, then miners will soon give up mining and we do not need to wait until all the bitcoins are mined.

Also, we have no certainty that bitcoin will exist until then, discussion of what will happen in the next 100 years is quite vague.

It's a bit of a surprise that somebody who is a hero member and has been on the forum for more than 8 years thinks that mining stops as soon as all coins are mined.

Anyway, the role of miners is not merely to mine or extract coins as if they're miners of gold or whatever precious stone and metal, such that when the supply is depleted there's nothing else to mine and the operations stop. The role of miners in the Bitcoin system is to process transactions and add them to the blockchain. So, they continue to have an essential role even after the last Satoshi is mined. Transactions won't be confirmed without them.

If it isn't anymore profitable to mine, then many will stop. As a result, the difficulty in mining will fall. It may reach to a point when even a personal computer at home could be able to perform it. In which case, profit would be realized once again.

Whether we want to or not, we cannot wait until all coins are mined. We'd all be dead by then.

I know the role of miners is not only to mine bitcoins but they also play the role of processing transactions on the bitcoin blockchain. But as I emphasized, people continue to mine bitcoin because they still enjoy large profits from mining. But once all the bitcoins are mined, profits will certainly decrease significantly, and maintaining mining machines just to process transactions will not be feasible. Because the cost of mining machines is very expensive, not to mention other additional costs, but if it is as you say then we can use personal computers to process transactions at that time. Then everything is simpler and easier.

Would José Mourinho be in the category of 'crazy ideas' for Bayern?
Director Max Eberl: "Of course we're also looking into coaches who are currently available.
Jose learning German? I don't know!”, told BILD.

This looks really interesting.
Where I thought they were going to target Xabi Alonso to be the new coach of Bayern Munich, now it suddenly seems like there is a chance for Jose Mourinho to be the new coach.

But of course, this is just a teaser or something like that. I do not think anything has been decided yet.
However, I have to say I like the idea. Many times we have seen him do well with good squads, right?
So if somehow Alonso is unavailable or they are unable to get Alonso I think Jose Mourinho is going to be a great option for them.

No doubts about the interesting part of it, Jose Mourinho is a big name when you come to European Competitions and Football. But, will he be offered the job to be the next manager of Bayern Munich? I don't think so. If I was the management I won't because Jose Mourinho is too much of a defensive structured manager and his plans wouldn't align with that of the management and the club.

Most likely to mount that job would be both Xabi Alonso and Antonio Conte. I've read opinions of how Antonio Conte would be the most ideal replacement for Thomas Tuchel ahead of the next season. I would love that honestly.
Maybe a chance to work back with Harry Kane. Harry Kane should be his underground agent itching to see him join Bayern Munich.

Most likely they'd also lose core members of the squad over the years ( Joshua Kimmich and Alphonso Davies )

If there is a change in management, there are definitely going to be big changes in the squad. So the idea that the core members of the squad are going to change is not very alien.

If we talk about the chances between Alonso and Antonio, I think I will say Alonso has a better chance. Recently he has really proved himself. And I don't think Bayern Munich is going to have the same level of confidence over Antonio that they are going to have in Alonso. And Even though it looks like a great idea to get Jose Mourinho I also understand that it is pretty unlikely to happen.

I've been watching with interest as Bitcoin has pulled back over the past week after hitting new highs. Part of me wants to accumulate more while the price is down, but I also wonder if we may see it drop further in the short term.



I want to tell you that bitcoin is unpredictable and no expert dares to tell you that they know how bitcoin will move tomorrow. But one thing I know is that those who are hesitant and always waiting for bitcoin to decrease further to buy will always have to buy bitcoin at a higher price. Like yesterday when bitcoin dropped to $61k, many predict it will reach $55k before rising again. But what about now? Bitcoin is trading above $67k and will likely continue to move higher in the final days of March. Those who delayed buying bitcoin yesterday are having to buy at a higher price. This is a real example that just happened and you can think for yourself and make your own decisions.
