Bitcoin will perform well in any scenario. Grin
The current price increase of raw materials will be temporary and it will end during the spring.
There's no shortage of raw materials,so there's no reason to think that their prices will keep going up.
I also don't think that there's going to be stagflation,because if the unemployment rate goes up,the governments/central banks will step in and run the money printing machine+more government stimulus plans,which will pump the demand and save the companies,which are struggling.
There will be high inflation,rather than stagflation.

Welcome to the forum.
I don't think that you have 60 partners among sports betting websites.I guess that you have 60 affiliate links of the sports betting websites,that you are reviewing. Grin
Your website looks decent,not bad but not great.I don't like having multiple squares with the websites,all over the place.
It would be nice if you make a proper list,something like Top 20 or Top 50 rankings.
Your domain name seems cheap,but you should definitely try to choose another name,in order to build a brand.
A name,that is easy to remember and it sticks out.Krypto oddsen doesn't sound good to me.
Good luck with this project,OP.
2643  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Going public saying you own Bitcoin is not safe anymore on: October 24, 2021, 05:52:31 AM
Nowadays we need to be careful when publicly admitting to owning Bitcoin. A lot of crypto traders have been receiving threats as in the case of Daniel one of the guys from Chart Champions.

Things are escalating as, apparently, a 14-year-old kid from England got kidnapped after bragging on social media posts about having lots of money made from trading cryptocurrencies.

That's why I don't like anyone to know I'm in the Crypto business.

It doesn't matter if it's Bitcoin or fiat money,bragging is a sign of stupidity.
Kids and teenagers are going some really dumb mistakes.What if this 14 year old kid is actually lying and he never made any money?His kidnappers would be pissed and we don't know what are they doing to do with him.
I would never admit to anyone in my social circle,that I have Bitcoins.Not even my family.
Not because they are going to tell me the usual "Bitcoin is scam" BS,but because most people can't keep a secret.
I really hate people,who can't keep secrets and people,who like to gossip and spread lies.
There's a special place in hell for such people.
2644  Economy / Gambling / Re: Self excluded from Stake - but cannot make withdrawal. on: October 22, 2021, 11:03:10 AM
I don't understand why OP self-excluded his account while having Bitcoins in that account?
Is this done by mistake?
I also don't understand why this thread is still active,since OP hasn't responded with an update about his problem.
What does account self-exclusion mean?Is it the same as deactivating or deleting your account.
I have used Stake.com 3 years ago and I don't remember anything about account self-exclusion.
2645  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- Group Stage! on: October 22, 2021, 06:04:55 AM
I must admit that Manchester United got a really important win as their form is really the worst recently. It was really difficult to make a comeback against a tough opponent like Atalanta. But this win still doesn't prove that Manchester United started playing better. They still don't seem trustworthy for me and Solskjaer is still at a problematic position.

Manchester United are still trying to find the right manager after the glorious era of Alex Ferguson.
Solskjaer apparently isn't the right guy for the job.I don't know who would be the best candidate for a Man Utd manager.Even Jose Mourinho failed miserably as a Manchester United manager(despite winning the Europa league in 2017).
Manchester United have great players and CR7 is helping the team a lot,after his comeback,but something is wrong with them.I'm sure that they can achieve something big in the UEFA Champions League.Maybe at least reaching the semi-finals would be considered a major success.
2646  Economy / Speculation / Re: Elon Musk Sees Bitcoin Price Reaching $69,000 on: October 22, 2021, 05:41:06 AM
Not Elon Musk again...
I'm sure that Elon is dreaming of dogecoin hitting 0.69 cents.After all,dogecoin is his favorite coin,but I highly doubt that this coin will ever going to stay above 0.30 cents.
I don't care about the Bitcoin price hitting 69,420 USD.It would be probably the same as the price hitting 42069 USD.
It's still memeable content,but who cares.Probably only the redditors and the internet geeks.
Did anyone actually cared,when the Bitcoin price was 69 dollars or when the price was 420 dollars?
I don't think so...

2647  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin's new All Time High (ATH) has been reached this year again (X2) on: October 21, 2021, 11:37:36 AM
The way I feel over time, it doesn't seem to be the case when we look back at BTC at this price point.
Maybe time testing for new entrants time has passed, and we should see a new cycle easily identified with this field. And now we are on an uptrend with BTC, I am alone with people who give me advice on BTC falling to $20k.
Have you seen BTC ever drop to $20K this year after finding its first ATH of the year? because what is happening now is the second ATH and I personally have never seen that Bitcoin can experience ATH up to two times within a year, so this is certainly very extraordinary and very real.

The so called "all time high" (ATH) is just a number.This year,the price reached the ATH two times,but what can we say about 2013,when the price went from 16USD to more than 1200USD. Grin
The Bitcoin price was reaching a new ATH every hour for a couple of weeks during the 2013 price bubble.
That's multiple ATHs in a short time frame. Grin The Bitcoin community wasn't so obsessed with ATHs back then.
Anyway,many people regret that they didn't bought BTC before this bull run,so now they simply wish the price to drop back to 20K USD.The amount of FUD will go thru the roof in the next weeks.
2648  Economy / Economics / Re: A tale of the two parasites on: October 21, 2021, 11:12:21 AM
Both the rich and poor parasites are parasites because somebody allows them to be parasites.
By "somebody" I mean the government and the society.
The government and the society tolerates tax evasion conducted by the rich people and the poor people being spoonfed by the state.If the government and/or society forces the rich and poor people and stop being parasites,then most of them will stop being parasites and start contributing to the society.
Maybe some rich people will just leave the country and go live somewhere else,we can't do anything about it.
Some of the poor people will keep doing crimes,but they will have to face the consequences(going to jail).
2649  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Fake bets on: October 21, 2021, 05:59:05 AM
The youtuber Coffeezilla has great videos about this topic.
Unfortunately marketing is 99% deceiving and dishonest.I'm not talking about gambling marketing.
The entire marketing industry is full of lies and deceptions.
I'm not sure that advertising gambling games and casinos is even allowed on Youtube and Twitch.
If it's allowed,then maybe it's time for Youtube and Twitch to step up and regulate all the  advertising of casinos and gambling activities,which happens on their platforms.
The gambling industry is heavily regulated on most countries in the world,and at the same time,gambling advertising is allowed on big platforms,without any restrictions.
I'm OK with gambling ads and promotions,as long as they are honest and not deceiving.
2650  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Tether and BTC's current price on: October 21, 2021, 05:34:23 AM
The debates about Tether having any reserves to backup their coin is continuing during the last 4 years.
I don't know why do you come up with the same question that has been asked multiple times for the last 4 years.You have a legendary account.It's weird that you still don't know how tether/stablecoins work.
All the FUD guys and Bitcoin haters keep pointing out that the main reason behind the Bitcoin price growth might be Tether creating stablecoins out of thin air.Those allegations had never been proven with solid evidence by any FUDster/BTC hater whatsoever.
2651  Economy / Speculation / Re: Fomo AGAIN? on: October 20, 2021, 11:47:02 AM
My FOMO is more like Fear of Selling Too Early and missing out on the higher price later on. Grin
I've sold my BTC at the wrong moment many times before,so I can't be bothered with buying BTC at the wrong time(right before a price correction).
I'm not like the FOMO traders,who wants to buy Bitcoins,when the market is on a bull run.
I guess that the Bitcoin market entered a FOMO phase,but I'm not going to buy any BTC,because I expect a price correction next week.
The FUD,that is coming from the governments and banks will grow for sure and the current FOMO phase will die slowly.
2652  Economy / Economics / Re: Will circular economy work ? on: October 20, 2021, 07:32:59 AM
I support the recycling of materials like plastic to be increased.
Less garbage wasted and less environmental pollution.
I don't know about whether or not the concept of "circular economy" would work.
There should be an incentive for the companies and households to join this process.
If recycling lowers the quality of raw materials,then maybe new types of materials should be invented.
Materials that don't lose their quality,when they get recycled.There's room for innovation.

2653  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BitcoinNews.com's UEFA Champions League Football Preditor Pool Discussion thread on: October 20, 2021, 07:11:20 AM
I definitely wasn't expecting Porto to win 1-0 against Milan.I guess that Milan still doesn't have the consistent performance they need.After all,they are on the best teams in the history of UEFA tournaments.
Anyway,I expect Barcelona,Bayern,Juventus and Chelsea to win their matches today.Seems like a safe bet.
Lille-Sevilla and Young boys-Villarreal seem like unpredictable games,but I bet that the Spanish teams will win.
Wofsburg-RB Saltsburg is weird.I'm not a big fan of German and Austrian football,but I assume that RB Saltsburg will win this game.
2654  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Coinbase Partnering with NBA and WNBA on: October 20, 2021, 06:41:50 AM
Cointelegraph announced Coinbase was Partnering with NBA and WNBA in a major crypto deal. Although the partnership will be more significant particularly to the NFT industry, it is also huge news for crypto in general.
This move is bound to take crypto a few steps closer to mainstream adoption. Glad to hear your comments about the news.

Bitcoin is already in the mainstream,despite the fact that it's not adopted by millions of people in their daily activities.
This deal is mostly about NFTs,which I honestly don't care about.I'm not a basketball fan,so I couldn't care less.I wonder why Coinbase would want to expand into the NFT market.Probably because of greed.
We have already seen several cryptocurrency related companies to sign sponsorship deals with popular sports clubs.Coinbase isn't doing something revolutionary or groundbreaking.The crypto businesses are getting bigger,so they have bigger advertising budgets.

2655  Economy / Speculation / Re: Microsteel keeps buying into BTC on: October 19, 2021, 11:42:37 AM
In 10 years time, Michael Saylor is going to end up being either a giga-brain genius, or a straight-up laughing stock. I don't think there's any in-betweens lol; he's just balls deep into bitcoin. MSTR literally owns 0.54% of the total bitcoin supply now.

I don't have any respect for this guy at all,even though he is a total 1000% Bitcoin bull.
There's something wrong about him and his Microstrategy fund.Investment funds usually are focused on managing the risks and diversifying the assets in their portfolio.
Microstrategy is all about "buy more Bitcoin and forget about anything else".
I guess that they want to attract all the investors,who want a high risk/high reward ratio.
So far he is doing great,but I don't think that Saylor has any plan B,when the shit hits the fan...
2656  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Jamie Dimon asks, “How do we know Bitcoin supply ends in 21 million”? on: October 19, 2021, 11:19:31 AM
I guess that JP Morgan wants the Bitcoin price to drop below 50K USD,so they could secretly buy some BTC,before the bull run towards 100K USD.There's no other logical explanation of this BS low quality FUD by Jamie Dimon.I mean he's not even trying to FUD properly. Grin
He could bring the "quantum computers will destroy Bitcoin" BS or maybe "a bunch of miners and whales are controlling the entire blockchain and want to scam the innocent people" BS.
Saying that BTC supply won't end at 21M is just stupid.Mining rewards decreases,BTC mining gets more difficult,creating Bitcoin out of thin air is impossible,and this guy comes up with this?
I'm like WTF Jamie?Why don't you put some effort in your FUD.Don't be lazy. Grin
2657  Economy / Economics / Re: Does the Dark Side of the Art Industry Foretell NFTs Future on: October 19, 2021, 06:42:13 AM
This is completely true.A piece of garbage might cost millions of dollars,only because it is considered 'art' or some 'artist' created it.I want to become an artist as well and I want to sell BS paintings for ridiculous amounts of money.Unfortunately,I will have to die,so the cost of my paintings could rise,due to the scarcity. Grin  
Selling overrated shit,just because the overrated shit is scarce...
This might seem unfair,but this is how capitalism works.Supply and demand.Limited supply and big demand leads to a high price.The object being sold doesn't matter,as long as there is demand for that object,and the supply of that object is extremely limited.
The sellers on the NFT market really want to exploit that side of capitalism/market economy.
2658  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Issue of fixed Matches on: October 19, 2021, 06:21:31 AM
I was with a friend today who was in a hurry to place his bet on some numbers that were sent to him for some football matches that he believes are fixed. I'm a bit confused how fixed matches work.

Are fixed matches real? Do the coach and players of teams were matches have been fixed, do they consent to it? If you were in a team were your next fixture has been fixed, what will be your reaction?


Yes,fixed matches do exist,but they mostly happen in the low quality leagues of the poor/underdeveloped countries.
Good luck trying to find a fixed match that is actually fixed.If somebody is trying to sell your such info,then he is most likely a scammer/snake oil seller.Info about real fixed matches is usually kept between the football players,who are betting secretly on fixed matches,in which they are playing,or maybe some mobsters.
Perhaps you could find info about fixed matches on the darkweb,but the chance of getting scammed is still above 99%.
I'm not a player,so I couldn't care less about fixed matches.If I was,my reaction would be calling the cops.
2659  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Advice: 1 BTC on: October 19, 2021, 05:56:02 AM
I can assume that OP doesn't have one Bitcoin.He's just a asking a question about a potential case scenario.
OP,if you really have one BTC,then congratulations.You are richer and more successful than 99% of all Bitcoiners so seeking financial advise from people,who are less successful than you are seems kinda stupid to me.
Does a rich person seek financial advise from the poor people?Nope... Grin
Anyway,If you don't really have one BTC,then the entire discussion is just gibberish.It's like asking "What will you buy or invest with the money,if you win the jackpot?"There's no point of such questions.
2660  Economy / Economics / Re: Entrepreneurs, money and investing - your culture on: October 18, 2021, 11:45:18 AM
I don't have enough information about the entrepreneurs in my country,because I usually don't talk to business owners and I don't have any entrepreneurs in my social circle.
However,I'm sure that the financial education and culture in my country is pretty low.Most people don't know how to calculate interest rates and they don't invest in stocks,hedge funds or cryptocurrencies.
My country had a socialist command economy between 1947 and 1997,so the government controlled all the companies in the economy.There is no advanced corporate culture like in some capitalist countries.
Talking about money isn't considered a "bad taste",but most people simply aren't interested in the subject.
