During the previous win of Adesanya small tips were rained. Maybe this time too we can get some rains from Adesanya. The odds were much different, Adesanya @1.35 whereas Whittaker @3.45 Waiting for the day. This time the chance for the fight to end earlier is very low. Adesanya is going to make Stake high with his stylebend.
2642  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How do we get more women to be involved in Crypto on: February 10, 2022, 10:56:17 PM
~
It's all about being into techies and stuffs. Most women I had talked with about technologies just don't seem to be interested at all. It's not all about that money, risks, and investment stuffs.
Maybe there are a lot of women in crypto, and they are just not too "talkative" about them being involved in crypto unlike us dudes.
I too feel the same. Women involvement is low, but there are good number of women making use of cryptocurrency as a form of investment.

Women aren't much into technology, but they learn easily if they get attracted to it. One of my brother's wife working for banking support have got good portfolio of bitcoin with leading altcoins. She does it as an investment than for regular trading. Maybe women aren't so talkative regarding their holdings, that's the reason we doesn't find much women into crypto space.

Similar scenario is happening with China, India, Bangladesh and few more countries. Recently India through its heavy taxation gave sign of acceptance, but there is no official statement that cryptocurrencies were legal within the country. Russia that has been coming up with different opinions on bitcoin and blockchain have now reached a better position. When the official framework along with the do's and don'ts revealed we'll get to know what form of adoption Russia has planned.

Football clubs have been turning to cryptocurrency, lately we've got Manchester United making its partnership with Tezos. The blockchain platform Tezos is to pay $27 million to have their logo on the kit. The Tezos platform have got more plans for the club team as well as the fans, supporters, and for the community.

2645  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Upcoming Apple iPhone feature for crypto payments on: February 09, 2022, 12:03:58 PM
Apple have planned to launch its tap to pay feature for the upcoming Apple iPhone. With this feature the smartphone serves as a point of sale machine. This service is provided through the NFC (Near Field Communication) technology.

This service is being offered for Apple pay, contactless credit and debit cards. Apart from this it has also added some digital wallets. Customers who use crypto.com card, coinbase card or similar crypto holding cards can also use this for payments through tap to pay.

Coinbase cards have got the feature of converting crypto into fiat instantly for payments. This way Apple pay users will be able to use the iPhone tap to pay feature to make crypto payments.

Last year Tim Cook revealed his personal portfolio having cryptocurrency holdings and there is no immediate plans for Apple get into cryptocurrency as means of payment and investment. So, Apple pay will not allow the direct payment of crypto. The crypto holding will get converted to dollar value as per the request from the pos. This way the payments will be done.

Some interesting news coming from the ECB. Next month they are schedule to play 3 test matches in the WI and they sacked their coach Chris Silverwood along with Director Ashley Gills and now they also dropped their leading wicket taker Anderson-Broad duo from the test team.

https://i.imgur.com/tqSQnGN.jpg


Looks like England is playing with young players. West Indies plays against England once after the T20 series of India. West Indies played the previous test series against Sri Lanka and lost the series. Previously England have played against West Indies in the T20 series and lost it. Test format and T20 will be completely different, and with the matches played by West Indies some used to be very interesting for the performance and at times goes completely one sided.

Do you think that this skyrocket has something to do with Facebook's(Meta) massive drop? It could be the whales from there that have taken their share moved some of their wealth into bitcoin. I'm only thinking that it's one of the reasons on what we're seeing right now and it's my just mere opinion about the recent pump. It's likely that it will eventually hit back $41k.
I do not think this is connected to Facebook stock massive drop, I do not see how both price can even be related, this is just another bull run for bitcoin before the price may decrease again, I just know that this year will not really be so encouraging about bitcoin price, but I may be wrong.
That's just the idea that came to my mind and it's about the likely of the investors from FB(meta) stock that have sold and then reinvested it into bitcoin.
But yeah, let's settle that and forget about the connection. Because every time there's a drop or rise for bitcoin, there's also some significant move for the stock market.
Yes, this is the most logical reason why the price suddenly skyrocketed, the shift from FB stock to bitcoin market. And this is not just ordinary investors, this are whales, very deep pocket that can put millions upon millions of funds.
That's why the price suddenly went to $44k today. And I wouldn't be surprised if this goes up to $45k then the next barrier of $48k-$50k. So we can say that there is indeed some correlation between stock market and crypto market.
A big flow of money into cryptocurrency have happened. The same has caused the price pumping than any form of external push. Yes, the price can even cross $50k which is the best part. There is market correlation, but this won't happen everytime. Right now it is all because of the Metaverse drop. Everyone were speculating of bearish market, but everything turned to be positive in very short time period. This indicates the unpredictability of the market movements.
2648  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What websites you use for live scores? on: February 07, 2022, 11:46:49 PM
I have been using flashscore for all live scores. In particular I prefer this while I've placed bets over tennis games. At some games there used to be delay in the score updates, there is no such delay with flashscore. It also serves to be a lucky platform through which winnings were made. Rather than watching completely games, through flashscore it is possible to analyse and select the winning team with ease.

Soon you will see china playing cricket too as our president wants to teach cricket to china so that they would develop in cricket.

Since the Chinese are dominant in many sports and therefore we will see that they would win the world cups after getting training from Pakistan.
It is a good gesture by Pakistan to help China in developing the spot and if it is a good partnership then i am sure China will be helping with the funds to Pakistan as well in further developing their cricket.

It might take decades for China to learn the sport and become competitive but it is a good start and if it is included in the Olympics we might see more countries willing to take the sport of Cricket seriously.
Really it's funny from both sides like Pakistan and China because I have feeling they could be not good in this game as it's not good for their nature they are very fast and love to do things in very short period, so first they need to have leagues like 100League, Ten/10League and Twenty/20 if they catch this all then surely they can enjoy this all otherwise it's going to be fail because few decades ago they already try in this way but failed.

Surely it's going to take decades because it's not easy for any country to adopt this all in very quick way we have few examples already in this cricket community and losing few countries due to their bad tactics and fail planning so if they have done with some better way then surely they can do this all and have better future in this game and can defeat India in their fan base advantage.

Nothing is impossible. If Chinese are willing to learn cricket and Pakistan is willing to help them then who knows they could turn into a good team. But nothing will happen overnight. It will take at least a decade for them to prove themselves that they have the talent to play cricket.
China already dominating the sporting industry. One day surely they'll enter the cricket. As per my view they doesn't have big plans, else long back itself they could've got into cricketing. Another thing, if cricket was added to Olympics they might've started playing it and topped the list.

There is also viewership of PSL outside Pakistan but not much. PCB need to work on that. The level of cricket is superb in PSL. Today Islamabad will face karachi. Karachi so far has lost all matches and there skipper in none other then Pakistan captain babar azam. This is very surprising that Pakistan captain who is too good in T20I is struggling in PSL.
How do you create interest outside any country, from what i understand, India have a large viewership because of their huge population and Pakistan fans outside the country will be watching them. I do not watch the IPL or any other matches unless i am placing a bet on them. In this past paced world it is difficult to spend time to watch a match of cricket completely.
Population advantage is surely having very big impact on IPL popularity but recently too much money is also involved in this all peoples are spending some good amount of their funds into betting, and it's all about good marketing and some good information about these games to peoples.
There is population advantage, beyond that, addition of universal players from every cricketing nation adds power to it. This way the viewership goes beyond India, and there is good marketing. As of now PSL is in good shape and it is the authorities to carry it forward. Maybe more foreign players will make the league more popular.
Even gambling is banned in subcontinent but still many insiders and peoples involved in this business specially in India which is also having big impact on other side in Pakistan these things are not in better shape they have some strict laws and economy is also not good as India, so they will be not popular as IPL but can still live at second spot with their finances. If they improve quality and have some better facilities, then it's going to be more interesting for viewers and fans of the respective franchise.
IPL followed the tactics of football leagues. Those weren't there with cricketing when IPL was begun. So, that gave big success when something new is being into the league. Now people are used to it, and something more attractive needs to be done to make people turn towards PSL. Only then it is possible to take the lead against IPL.

Once again the Treasury Minister confirm about the stand on bitcoin as legal tender. El Salvador have taken a strong decision and are sticking to it even after several warnings from IMF. Quoting the market volatility IMF requested El Salvador government to reject bitcoin forever and dismiss it's new found crypto agenda. The president responded with a simple meme "I see you, IMF. That's very nice".

Now Alejandro Zelaya(Treasury Minister) have mentioned bitcoin as a way for the country to be more independent. About the crypto adoption he adds, Countries are sovereign nations, and they take sovereign decisions about public policy. No international organisation is going to make us do anything, anything at all.
2652  Economy / Speculation / Re: Prediction: Low was $34K or will be ~$25K on: February 06, 2022, 10:15:47 PM
This is what the market is all about, majority of the people were speculating about the massive correction. Out of correction, it is predicted to reach the lowest bottom of $30k. What caused the market move forward isn't known, because there is no big news in terms of adoption. Now it has crossed $41k which is good and now people talk of missing the chance to buy. So, the market is completely unpredictable and surprise the users. One who take the risk profit out of it.
2653  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: School Students learning bitcoin basics in Slovakia.. on: February 06, 2022, 05:18:24 PM
Slowly more business were converting the cash reserve into bitcoin fearing inflation. We don't know what will be the future of cryptocurrencies, but as things are completely connected to technology learning it will surely be helpful in some means. There were more schools and universities that have begun to accept cryptocurrency payment, whereas very few have started to provide knowledge about cryptocurrencies.

As mentioned by the OP, Slovakia is a small country. Anything associated with technology isn't an easy thing to adopt, being a small country with limited population providing education on cryptocurrency is a possible one compared to a highly populated country doing the same.

This is something funny, because Pakistan have many other issues to face at present. Pakistan had to pay a debt of $26 billion in interest for the fiscal year 2020-2021. Maybe this could give some relief for the Pakistan government, just a fun and nothing offensive.

Don't fall for the list of fake users who keep posting I've got doubled my money through the Bitcoin generator. Those are fake user comments or just added by the scammer itself. During my beginning days I've tried it and lost good amount. I lost looking at those claims that keeps running on the bottom of the homepage.

Keep it in mind when one has the system to generate bitcoin within clicks, he himself can generate it with what he have in his wallet. What's the need of suggesting it to the rest of the people. Just think it and act wise.

India wins the U19 world cup for the fifth time. This time Yash Dhull gets added to the list of captains winning the U19 world cup for India. Previously it was Mohammad Kaif, Virat Kohli, Unmukt Chand and Prithvi Shaw.

This time more records have been made. Most runs and most sixes by an individual, Dewald Brevis had scored 506 runs with 18 sixes. Most sixes hit in a single edition - 338 sixes. England winning the toss was an advantage, but they missed the good start. Anyhow they managed to give a good score. Maybe next time this can be for England.

Why Binance has restricted some Nigerian accounts

Binance have restricted specific number of personal accounts upon the request of international law enforcement. According to the information from the news article 281 personal accounts have been restricted to prevent fraud and ensure the platform's security. In specific CEO Binance added

“User security remains our top priority,” he said. “We love and are devoted to our Nigerian community, but we must ensure that our users are safe.”

Some #tags connected with Binance have been trending in twitter. Further it is said 79 cases have been resolved and are working on it. People will regain access as the team is working on speed resolution on those accounts.

Close to million peeps watching at hotstar, i'm sure numbers are very much high but still i won't say everyone is every excited about this u19 team. i watched few games but if i'm being completely honest i'm not expecting any positive or any super star emerging from this touny for Indian team (1-2 might make into IPL but that's it). I hope i'm dead wrong as far as Indian perspective is concern.

PS: Baby de villiers seems excellent prospect for saffa tho.
Majority out of the million viewers seems to be Indians. India have lost its first wicket without taking any runs. This  doesn't look like a good start for India. More few wickets will boost England to perform better. As mentioned u19 will add credit to the winning country, but the same won't make big players into the Indian team. Possibly many will get into the IPL league which is the reality with u19. At present there might not be super star emerging out of it, but players who got into Indian team after winning u19 have made big records. One amongst is Virat Kohli.
Indian provider so its kinda obvious.

Anyway this looks like weakest u-19 Indian team in last 3-4 years imo, hardly heard any name in domestic circuit, i meant under 16 or so. Tells you lot about about quality of u-19 in world cricket, quality is going down the drain and its not good for future, no matter who wins the world cup.
Agreed, here not only the Indian team every team progress isn't that big. Through out the entire tournament I find Afghanistan team to be getting stronger with time. This means it is good for the next set of players for the country. From tough condition Afghanistan is doing the best and all the matches they lost were also very close. If Afghanistan team gets better support, surely they'll improve themselves in the upcoming tournaments.
