2701  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Elon Musk guesses who bitcoin's mysterious creator Satoshi Nakamoto is on: December 30, 2021, 04:46:17 PM
The debate continues...
Elon Musk appears to have a pool of smart people he works with to discuss topics like these. It appears Nick Szabo is the leading candidate in their upper tier of their intelligentsia. If it is Nick Szabo he must be one of those who avoids media attention and the spotlight. In contrast to the Craig Wright's of the world, Szabo tends to keep a low profile.
Thank god, Elon Musk did not claim himself to be Satoshi Nakamoto. You can expect anything from his tweets.
I have stopped following his tweets and words ever since he has started promoting DogeCoin. I don't believe in Elon musk guesses for Satoshi Nakamoto. No one knows who is Satoshi Nakamoto.

Lol,  Cheesy Cheesy

I will not be surprised if he claims himself as Satoshi.
Do you people believe his statement till now?? This man say one thing in the morning and said the opposite in the afternoon. At morning press conference he said Bitcoin is the digital gold, during supper, he said Bitcoin is not eco-friendly. I don't know how much confidence he has in his own words!

To me, it is unnecessary to search for Satoshi Nakamoto when he wants to be hidden from us.
Debate is not needed to convince him when he will want to express himself, people will believe him spontaneously.

Nice win for Leicester City. Beating Liverpool would not have been easy, nor was it. Thanks to Kasper Schmeichel, we can say that they won three points. He saved Mohamed Salah's penalty, he saved a lot of clear positions. With this win, Leicester kept Liverpool behind Manchester City in the championship race. At the same time, they reached 25 points(Leicester). It was a match worthy of Premier League quality. In Liverpool, although he entered positions with Diego Jota, Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane, they could not find the goal.
That game was a good example, that even the biggest teams in the league can be surprised.
So, today Chelsea and Man City, if they really want to win their games, they have to be very attentive to their opponents. They will not have an easy task (especially Chelsea).
The competition will be getting tougher and chasing the first place will be very fun to watch. This week before Chelsea against Liverpool should be able to get through Brighton with a good performance. Followed by Man City whose opponent is Brentford who is more conquerable. Although the occasional sudden attack from Brentford makes any opponent feel unable to withstand it. Brentford will do everything in his power to contain Man City.

The match between Chelsea and Brighton is going on now, shortly after Manchester City will play against Brentford. Chelsea must win today. Otherwise, they will have to give up hope of winning the title. In the meantime, they are behind City's Theke Point. They need to reduce this point gap.
City's opponent Brentford, on the other hand, will play a home match. They collected only 10 points in 8 home matches. An easy win awaits City.

City doesn't have the mentality to win in the champions league, as evidenced by the transfer of jor2an they have not been able to win the champions league at all even almost 4 years under Pep City's care always failed in the champions league. Maybe it's the Premier League, there is a possibility that City can win, but it's not the case with the Champions League because it's quite impossible for City. I sure this years is not moment for City can success and get trophy in champion league.
How can you be sure that City will not win the Champions League? Where their performance in the Champions League is impressive.
They finished the first round from the top of Group A. They will play against Sporting in the round of 16. Relatively weak opponent. I think Manchester will win easily in this round too. Manchester City players are playing well. Pep's strategy has improved. Isn't Manchester City a worthy candidate to win the City Champions League?
In my opinion, currently there are three strong teams that are candidates for champions champions this season, Liverpool, Manchester City and PSG, but among the three teams I think PSG and Manchester City are the most likely teams to win the Champions League, just like you,  I think the performances of the two teams were quite impressive this season and  which is the reason why I predict that one of the two teams will be able to get their first champions league trophy this season, but now PSG have left their opponents in the league with a pretty far point difference, and their has a greater focus  in champions league match than Manchester City which is now also the champion of the English Premier League half season.
PSG's next opponent is Real Madrid. If PSG can qualify for the next round by beating Real Madrid, then I think they can go to the final. However, it is difficult to say which team will win the title. I think Liverpool, Manchester City and PSG are equally strong.

I am agree with you now, PSG and City have to rely on their luck to win the match despite having good squads. Liverpool's position seems to be a bit better than theirs.

Nothing is expected of Barcelona at the moment. Most likely they continue to target shifting Real Sociedad which is on the decline as well. However, seeing his current potential it is difficult to win a trophy. it was too far for them to reach. Real Madrid has the potential to continue to lead. Reaching the final League of course this continues to make it difficult for Barcelona to move more freely.

Is it difficult to win a trophy?

I think it is impossible for Barcelona. Barcelona is 16 points behind Real Madrid. If you want to get 18 points, you have to win 6 matches. At the same time Real Madrid will have to lose 6 matches. Not only that, with Sevilla and Real Betis ahead of Barcelona as title contenders. Barcelona's main goal now is to qualify for the Champions League next season.

Leicester City won against Liverpool today, Ademola Lookman became Leicester City's hero after scoring a goal in the 59th minute. Liverpool played very superior in this match, it was noted that they managed to make 21 shots against Leicester City. Apart from the shooting side, Liverpool also controlled the game in terms of ball possession. I was quite surprised to see the comparison between match stats and match results.

In this match we have seen how to win a match without dominating the match. We saw Liverpool dominate the whole match but Leicester City won the match. Their strategy was good. They have learned from previous defeats against Liverpool.
In this match they have adopted defensive tactics. Very few attacks. But each attack was stronger. The way Leicester are moving forward they will soon be in the top 5 of the points table.

I'm not sure where Pep will go next if Pep chooses to continue his career later, but considering the contract that is still available for Manchester City and also the big target to win the UCL title it looks like this season will be a season with good momentum for Manchester City too. Being the leader of the EPL standings and getting an opponent that can be said to be easy in this knockout phase, of course Manchester City will easily get through this knockout phase by conditioning their players to stay in good shape.

Manchester City now have a chance to win both the Premier League and Champions League titles.
We have seen Manchester City's dominance in both the Champions and Premier League. Their tactics are excellent, with the help of Pep Guardiola The Manchester City players have been able to organize themselves very well. City players are less likely to lose their form this season if they do not suffer too many injuries.
2708  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: December 29, 2021, 02:39:25 PM
Nantes are one of the powerful middle teams in the league now. When we think that Nantes ended the last season at the 18th position in the standings and were really near relegating from the Ligue 1, this is a very good improvement. They are at the 7th position now and there is only a 4-point difference with the 2nd-placed team, Nice. This is a big development from Nantes but it is doubtful whether they will be able to keep this performance up till the end.

The performance of the Nantes team is really excellent. However, they have some problems. I have seen less tendency in them to draw matches. They have played 19 matches and lost 7 matches. They have to try to draw the match when they play against a bigger team. If their gameplay had been a little more organized, they would have been in the top 5 of the points table.
However, their performance is much better than the horrific performance of the previous season.
But if they work a little harder, we will see more changes in their position.

It is time for another duel between Leicester and Liverpool tonight. This time, it is in the Premier League. In the EFL Cup game, I really appreciated the performances of both teams. Leicester put up a great fight against Liverpool in that game and I think they both deserved to qualify for the next stage. And here, my favourite side will be Liverpool again. Leicester showed a great performance against Manchester City last. And they would do their best against Liverpool also. But at the end, Liverpool would be the victor.

Liverpool drew with Tottenham in their previous match. I don't think Leicester City are weaker than Tottenham.
Leicester are a team that has the ability to score goals against any team. They have scored 3 goals against Manchester City, the best defense of the season. Maybe they will score against Liverpool today. However, Liverpool's striker has to play an important role in today's match. And they have to score at least 3 goals if they want to win.
2710  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you guys think 0.1BTC is enough to "make it"? on: December 28, 2021, 07:15:41 PM
Considering the supply vs global population = 0.003BTC per person to go around.

Then other factors like not all 21 million will be in circulation due to lost wallets/deceased hodlers who never informed anyone where their seed is, and also an increasing global population and future generations who all want in.

Do you think 0.1BTC will be like owning a mansion?

why not!
In 2010 who can think that 1 BTC will be worth of $60K?? But over time, that is likely to change. Now, 0.1BTC is worth of $5k but who knows that Bitcoin never go $200K within the next 5 years? If the bull market of Bitcoin continues to grow like this year then It is too much logical to think buy a mansion with 0.1BTC in 2025.
Perhaps, many economists think Bitcoin will replace paper money within 2025, so Hold on tightly until your dream comes true.

One thing I know about Ganguly is that he is very aggressive, at the same time he never crosses the line. This is not true with Kohli. Rather than showing aggression, he always try to bully his opponents. Sometimes it work out, and sometimes it doesn't. Also, blaming everything on Ganguly is not going to make things easy for Kohli. For the last several weeks I am witnessing uncouth social media posts from supporters of Kohli. He should stay away from such behavior, or his career will get negatively impacted.
Kohli is only removed from captaincy of odi and t20. He is still captain of test team and strong member of squad in all formats. He must not start such things about BCCI since he had lot of cricket left to play. He can perform better as a batsmen if he has no burden of captaincy. Honestly I like him as a player but he do cheap things most of the times.

None of us want Kohli's remarkable career to end badly. Sourav Ganguly, who is now the president of BCCI, also retired from all forms of cricket at an early age due to conflict with the board.

Kohli should improve his performance without getting into conflict with the board. His captaincy has not brought good results to India in recent times, now his performance is even worse. If he continues to perform like that, he is going to be dropped from the Indian squad quickly.

Talking about it isn't going to sway the outcome.  You could ask people about their opinions about where to place a bet on a Roulette wheel, but no one know that for sure either.  Some people might guess correctly, but many will also give an answer that turns out to be wrong. 

The safest advice is to only gamble what you can afford to lose.  The more adventurous advice is to keep an eye on current events and attempt to use those to make educated guesses about market movements.  But they'll still be guesses.

You know there is a greater chance of loss than of winning at gambling. If I place 10 bets in Roulette and If I am lucky on that day I might be win 5 max and loss the rest. So in this case it is o to say the statement "only gamble what you can afford to lose".

But in Bitcoin, If I look back, from 2010 to 2021 there is no loss if you hodl tight, only looser lost their funds by investing in Bitcoin cause they are looser. So it is not like gambling to investing money in Bitcoin, it is safe heaven to store your asset.
2713  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: December 28, 2021, 05:42:06 PM
That's how it is, I don't just judge Ligue 1 because there are more prestigious tournaments like UCL and PSG so far still haven't looked convincing in UCL as a team with good quality from Ligue 1. Therefore, even though PSG are good with having a big points gap quite safe at the top but this PSG sometimes get results that are not as expected when against mediocre teams. In contrast to teams that have good quality in the Bundesliga, where Bayern Munich against a mediocre team at least Bayern Munich always shows its quality by winning with lots of goals. Results like that are rarely made by PSG so far, that's the reason I want to be able to see PSG look more perfect, although I also realize that PSG's position is safe at the top.

Bayern have long maintained a stable team. They don’t change the team too much.
On the other hand, although there are many good players in the PSG team now, they are new to PSG. It will take time for them to get to know each other. If the same players perform together for a few years, then maybe PSG's performance will be as strong as Bayern Munich's. Besides, I didn't think the PSG coach was experienced enough. I don't like his tactics.

i also believe that this season a club will be promoted to the 1st bundesliga that already played in the 2nd bundesliga last season and the second club to be promoted will be last year's relegated club from the 1st bundesliga (bremen or schalke).
my wish would currently be st. pauli and werder bremen Wink

My guess is that Pauli and Darmstadt will both qualify for the Bundesliga. I can see, they are now ahead of the points table, so, I'm not only saying this, their point table says.
I think their gameplay is very nice and the players have the ability to score goals. At the same time you know, their defense is not so weak.
You have to be said, the gameplay of Pauli and Darmstadt is much better than Schalke and Bremen.

Having started the day at 31/4, England ended the day at 68. I wonder what England will be like after Anderson retires. He is still their best bowler at 39. The only exciting English bowler I've seen is Jofra Archer. A problem in bowling can't arise where lead is just 82. England loses by an innings. Australia makes a brutal attack. With the way the Aussies are dominating, the ashes will be won 5-0. England really needs to improve.

In one match after another, the English players are showing surprise by showing consistently poor performance. Poor performance and defeat in the first Test.
But played well in the second inning. In the second Test, they again performed poorly. Although the batsmen collected a lot in the first innings of the third Test,
England were not in a bad position at the end of the first innings with the help of bowlers. However, in the second innings, they lost all their wickets by only 68 runs, surprising everyone again.
I don't know what they will do in the fourth Test. However, even if they play well, they will definitely lose. Because, Australian players are all in the form now.
2716  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who is really controlling the Bitcoin market. on: December 27, 2021, 08:54:30 PM
We can say that any market can be manipulated, but I expect the Bitcoin market to be less than others, there is a so-called “market maker” which can be some big whales or even large institutions, they play on the psychology of traders and control it indirectly by factors Psychological things such as fear and greed, in the case of fear, for example, they press the price to the lowest level, which causes fear among many traders, and they sell their currencies at cheap prices as a result of fear, and here the market maker buys these quantities at cheap prices.
Therefore, we can say that the market can be predicted somewhat by observing the movements of the market maker or the big players because they are the ones who are manipulating or directing the market movement in general, in addition to, of course, some positive or negative news.
Big whales are always in the position to manipulate the price movement of the market but i think the biggest factor that controls the bitcoin market is its supply and demand. If there is a high demand, its supply will be lessen and definitely we can see its price increase. And since bitcoin is the most in demand crypto in the market, so its not surprising that it holds the highest value among all coins. Also, we have news and social media events that gets to affect the bitcoin market too, and every time negative news hit the market, bitcoin value will be temporarily affected but eventually recover from the  dip after a couple of days.

whales can manipulate the market for a certain period. They can move the market direction at any time but that move is weaker and does not stay for long. They do not have the ability to take control for a long time.
It's supply and demand what is truly controlling the market. If the demand is more than the supply, then the price will increase. This is normal. Again, if the demand is low but the supply is high, it will be just the opposite. If whales had all the power, the market would never have survived

It is a pity to see my own old wallets. There is a little comfort here that you have spent your coins. But I have lost the private key of some of my wallets, when I see those wallets & unspent BTC then I can't find any tongue to give consolation myself. In any case, it is better to get rid of the old and walk in a new way. If you hold BTC now, it may be worth it after 5 years, so it is better to delete the old memory and start hodling in a new way.

Anyone following the unofficial test between South Africa A and India A? I am seeing India A in action after a long break. And I am not sure whether this tournament will go ahead as planned, as the Omicron variant is spreading across South Africa. But for now, the matches are ongoing. After first day of play, South Africa A is at 233/7, but none of their players managed a half century. There were a few 40s and 30s, but no 50s. Among the Indian bowlers, Ishan Porel and Navdeep Saini picked up two wickets each.
Its a First class test match so not sure why they are calling it unofficial test. I think this tour will go ahead because National team is about tour South Africa soon and CSA wouldn't want upcoming tour to be postponed at any cost so they will ensure safety for every player and staff. BCCI and CSA also enjoy good relation.
Ishan Porel is good but Saini is not disciplined bowler and its seems Batters are also in okay-ish form. Priyank Panchal and Abhimanyu Easwaran made 96 and 103 respectively in the first match. Prithvi also hinting that he's about to find his hands. Vihari's form is more important  tho. He was sent there for a reason, i hope he score some runs and make his comeback in national team.

I honestly think that if Prithvi plays well he might get a chance in the national team and also get that fast. He is a good batsman in my opinion. He can hit a long ball, But he has to be consistent enough.
Talking about consistency I think  Saini is a good bowler and has good enough pace but the only problem is that if he balls 5 good deliveries in one over he balls one ball which is absolutely like a free hit to the batsman. Unless he gets consistent enough he will struggle to get in the national team.

Thomas Muller's statement about the Ballon d'Or 2021 award was written on Linkedin.
https://www.linkedin.com/posts/esmuellert_motivation-ballondor-lewandowski-activity-6871530282026053633-AAhc

From that long angle it is clear that Thomas Muller was a little disappointed with the awarding of the Ballon d'Or yesterday and it is indeed an incident in the past that is repeating itself, but Muller still congratulates Lionel Messi even though he thinks it is Lewandowski who deserves it, but he will prove it in the future will win the UCL this season and even this week facing Barcelona will be an interesting game according to him.
Muller can prove with Bayern Munich.

Well, we all know that it is a little unfortunate for Lewandowski because even Messi said that Levandowski was the actual winner of the Ballon d'Or. I think that when the winter says something like this then the rotary must have done something wrong, to be honest.
