This should be very interesting. El Clasico is indeed a little less interesting in this regard after losing Pepe, Sergio, Ronaldo to Madrid. and Messi, Neymar and Villa at Barcelona (My Version). because several seasons after some of these players disappeared indirectly there is no intrigue that is presented in El Clasico although it is still worth seeing.
Now Lewandowski as a high goal productivity player in the Bundesliga is coming and could be considered a challenge to Benzema in this season's top scorer and this will definitely ignite a rivalry that has not been seen for a long time.
What you say is not wrong, but next season's El Clasico will also be no less interesting to watch with the presence of Lewandowski at Barcelona which will make a long-lost rivalry visible again next season. I'm sure Barcelona fans will be even more excited next season because Barcelona's front line is better than before and will also try to present a fiercer competition next season.
What Barcelona need are key players like at Real Madrid. Benzema is an undisputed key player and if it weren't for Benzema, I'm sure Real Madrid would be the same as Barcelona last season.
Lewandowski's presence in my opinion will change Barcelona and Lewandowski's sharpness is undeniable, even though he is 33 years old, one year older than Benzema who is 34 years old. But I'm sure both of them will put on a very good and interesting performance in the upcoming El Clasico.
and By Xavu Hernandez, Robert Lewandowski will be included in Barcelona's game scheme to serve Real Madrid. The composition of the trio of Raphinha, Lewandowski, and Aubameyang could be the best choice on the front lines.

In fact, those who become addicted to gambling become very difficult to withdraw from this gambling.Those of us who become addicted to something find it very difficult to come back. Similarly, those who are addicted to this game of gambling can never quit gambling.Yes it is possible only when a person realizes on his own that I am not doing this job well. Only then can a person get rid of gambling addiction.Otherwise it is not possible.
Gambling addiction is not easy to undo and most time it is caused by friends or boredom. We have so many gamblers who are introverts and the urge of gambling always increased because they have no one to talk to and because of that the gambling urge in them always increase. There are lots of environmental factors that can increase the urge of gambling addiction. We need to be careful the way we gamble to reduced any addiction that can make us a victim of gambling addiction.
That is correct and also no addiction is easy to undo. Be it consumption of alcohol, gambling or sex. One has to struggle so much to get out of gambling addiction.
So everytime anyone suggests that they want to start gambling. I always suggest that think before you dive into the pool of gambling.
But you can't compare gambling addicts to alcohol or sex, alcoholics are very easy to cure and by cutting ties with people who try to get them to stop drinking. And most alcoholics have friends to drink with because doing it yourself is no fun, and there are many drugs to stop alcoholics too, many of my friends have done it and succeeded most importantly have serious intentions.
and for sex addicts, if you are not married you should get married immediately and if you are married sex will be a necessity and not dangerous.
to gamble, because of the ease that makes it difficult compared to other addicts. I mean because it's so easy to access and connect to the internet that we need every day that makes it easier for addicts to play it plus technology that is constantly evolving, and many other reasons that I think are more difficult to cure among other addicts.
but how to change the environment I think it works, have a good environment and have positive activities without technology or gadgets I think it will work.

My experience and story for the first time making transactions using bitcoin here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5401052.0

and at the time, if I'm not mistaken, the price of bitcoin was still around $20+, and that was a completely accidental and unexpected occurrence.
2724  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can change of environment have an effect on gambling addiction. on: July 29, 2022, 11:40:35 AM
Addictions are difficult to leave behind precisely because most of the time the reason behind their addiction can be easily obtained to the point changing the environment may not do much, and gambling addiction is like that, after all almost any person today that lives at a city has a smartphone with Internet access, this means that they only need to do a quick search, make a deposit and they can be gambling in a matter of minutes, so only those which are completely determined to leave gambling behind can ever recover from their addiction.

But it's probably easier to give up addiction when there are no constant reminders of it around you that constantly initiate your memories and habit. It's like with smoking or drinking - I know a few people who quit these habits, but gradually returned to them because if your friends (let's say at work) regularly go out to smoke, then you go with them and sooner or later you will start smoking again. Similarly with drinking - if your group of friends is used to playing billiards (or sitting in a computer club) and drinking, then it is very difficult to go beyond this pattern of behavior without stopping communication with them completely.
Compared to cigarette and liquor addicts, most people will succeed and that's true in my life and some of my friends, it all depends on their intentions.
if the intention is serious and consistent, it will definitely work, it does take time and stages of the process to really stop because of the environment but it will definitely work if the intention is serious without eliminating or changing the existing environment, especially in cigarettes because wherever we are smokers are sure to be there.
and for gambling addicts I haven't experienced it because I only play occasionally when I want to have fun with some of the bets that have been provided.
2725  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin bull run 'getting interesting' as BTC price hits 6-week high on: July 29, 2022, 08:57:41 AM
It looks like an increase in the price of bitcoin or crypto prices is likely to occur in the next few days, but you still have to be aware that in general the crypto market is still sideways, not yet a significant bull run.
and I also read the latest news and announcements from the Fed which excited investors to enter the crypto market,
and so far there has been no negative sentiment that could hit the market. And what you have to watch out for is that later many traders or even whales will start accumulating profits or profit taking, thus making sales that make crypto prices fall a little.

It has been more than a decade since bitcoin expanded the currency into the digital space of the internet. And since then, bitcoin remains the most popular cryptocurrency in the world and continues to be king.
As this is a blazing crypto footprint, mainstream acceptance will always put it ahead of other cryptos, although in the years to come there may be a shift but in the end bitcoin remains king.
2727  Other / Archival / Re: Most crypto-friendly economies in the world on: July 29, 2022, 03:32:00 AM
Of course, as crypto continues to grow and gain mainstream acceptance, as well as meet increasingly interested governments and regulatory frameworks, this list may change as there are still many crypto-friendly countries.
and this is a list of countries that invest the most in or use bitcoin or crypto at the moment, such as the United States which ranks second not to have the most bitcoin or crypto. however they have the most ATMs installed because so many people want to join bitcoin or crypto and because of that, the IRS can raise a lot of money by tracking down people who don't pay their taxes.

There are actually quite a few streamers playing for their own money, but as my marketing experience. And I can also tell you that some streamers will have sponsors from online casino websites to invite them to play and make videos with free credits, and indirectly advertise it to attract subscribers and I am also happy to see it and indeed it will make people want to do it.
2729  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: July 29, 2022, 01:33:37 AM
Haha, so there are still people who compare the new season to the preseason games? Wake up, guys. The Chelsea team is much better than Arsenal and Tottenham. They competed for the league title last season until January, when they lost steam due to COVID19, and they finished the campaign as semifinalists in the Champions League and winners of two domestic cups runner-up medal. Chelsea is a force to be reckoned with; they want the league this season.

I agree with your opinion about Chelsea. They are one of the most serious contenders of the Premier League title at the moment. It wouldn't be the right thing to overlook them this season. I can still say that they need some transfers now on one hand. For example their biggest need is a striker now as Lukaku is no more here and Werner might also leave the team soon. If they somehow find the right striker for themselves then they would really compete harder to achieve the title.
Chelsea already bought sterling for that but sterling's performance was not so impressive. Another solution is actually needed here. I meant i kinda feel that if any players that already bought by chelsea are not so good now. The defensive players will be hijacked by another club. This is also making another problem to come for chelsea. The team has not yet gotten the right defensive player from the transfer season. The more players are going out from the club but no replacement.
The day of chelsea become even harder.
Chelsea will most likely continue to issue players before the summer transfer window closes, and apart from players who have entered the transfer market and left there are five players who are looking to leave Chelsea this summer.
Cesar Azpilicueta reportedly wants to return to Spain Barcelona.
Marcos Alonso wants to join Barcelona.
Hakim Ziyech, Timo Werner and Christian Pulisic have also decided to leave Chelsea.
they are good players at Chelsea, and Chelsea need to have new players who are able to restore their glory because if you look at other clubs have changes and also significant preparations for next season.
2730  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Stolen Bitcoin Be Recovered on: July 28, 2022, 03:06:42 PM
Bitcoins are easy to track but recovery is much more complicated not even going back.
and it is quite possible to track the stolen bitcoins and that is done by monitoring the blockchain, in practice. This is complicated by the anonymous nature of the currency and the fact that thieves will most likely use a bitcoin exchange to exchange currency for normal money outright.
the healing possibilities might be slightly different as it would require different skill levels to complete, only experts could do this and there were very few people, as many people lost because these experts extorted people from them.

2732  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Ignore the dip and Invest in Bitcoin for long term on: July 27, 2022, 04:38:55 PM
Anyone who does not focus on the long term has everything to lose, Bitcoin has high volatility,So I think it's more profitable to invest for long term and be patient
If you don't invest long term, there is always a possibility of loss. Because in the current market situation it is very difficult to understand when the market is going in which direction. So to get profit in this market situation must be long term hold.  And never panic. Panic will never make a profit in any way.
Actually in any situation in the bitcoin market it will be more profitable in the long run even though it is in an upturn and for much more profitable profits.
bitcoin is not easy to predict but profits will definitely come after a decline, and the most important thing is to be patient and take advantage of the downturn to increase holdings and hold it for the long term.
Panic will not occur for users who have been in the industry for a long time in the current market situation because they know what to do, and for newbies, panic will definitely haunt but all will be well as long as the seniors provide good advice. And also have an interest in understanding and knowing the bitcoin footprint and the market well.
2733  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Shakur Stevenson vs Robson Conceicao - Sept 23 on: July 27, 2022, 02:45:00 PM
So I'm expecting from the first round, Stevenson will be coming hard and maybe a early technical knockout win for him.

I don't think he would do that, as you said, he is a technical fighter and a technical fighter would like to take it slow but in a consistent way. He is not aggressive as Valdez that's why he dominates Valdez because of his effective strategy which is using his quickness while Valdez was not able to use his power most of the time in the fight.
Stevenson is a boxer with great skill and also has a different strategy in knowing his opponent, and Valdez is a formidable champion with an unbeaten record in 30 fights. But all those report cards turned red against Stevenson.
and I will also say the same thing that Conceicao will lose and KO before the last round.
2734  Other / Off-topic / Re: VAR: Has it improved football or has made it worse ?* on: July 27, 2022, 01:24:07 PM
In terms of accuracy, VAR is very helpful in football, it is also very helpful for referees to review incidents that occur during a match, before they make a final decision.
Referees are human and it is impossible for him to make mistakes when he himself has to observe 22 players simultaneously during a match, and VAR helps them to re-examine incidents they missed to see in the first place, or simply make sure that their decisions are correct. right before making the last call.
and indeed the occurrence of VAR will result in the postponement of the match as long as the VAR occurs which will annoy the spectators, and also the players don't like it because they can no longer get away with flashy play, it will throw him away, I suspect the management doesn't like it for the same reason. If you have nothing to lose as to what the problem is, it just means that the results will reflect what really happened.
And whatever the reason, I think VAR is good for football and considering every CCTV case is accurate evidence that cannot be manipulated.

And those who have been in the industry for a long time will say bitcoin with several reasons why it is the most popular and most demanded cryptocurrency.
and the main reason because it is the first and oldest and trusted cryptocurrency and also profitable and very easy to use and safe and its value keeps increasing, because many investments are being made day by day and the second is ethereum because it is the best after bitcoin.
2736  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing: Haney vs Kambosos II (Undisputed) on: July 26, 2022, 06:54:24 PM
He had a great fight before with George Kambosos and Devin Haney took his record to 28-0 by controlling George Kambosos with very sharp accurate jabs, quick and precise footwork, smart corners, excellent timing. And he has a great defensive job, as well as a great counter-attack when the opportunity presents itself.
and if I look at his previous fights I doubt Kambosos can beat him for the rematch even though he is very well prepared, and Haney beat Kambosos to become the undisputed lightweight champion.
2737  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ English Premier League Season: 2022/2023 on: July 26, 2022, 11:12:52 AM
What you said would apply to all managers, once they lose a player they replace him with another at their disposal therefore in that sense it is nothing new. Where things will get tricky for Klopp will be trying to get a player replicate what Mane brought to the team.

The players he currently has in the squad are full of potential but right now are not good enough at this stage to do even 50% of what Mane was doing therefore you are right it will take time to adjust.

What will happen to Liverpool during that period of adjustment is an open question. I think they will suffer, they will fail to challenge for the Premier League and will not get beyond the quarter-finals of the champions league. I think this season will be a huge setback for Liverpool because Mane was a brilliant player for them and his work and efforts cannot be replaced immediately.

Mane is replaceable just as any other player but until someone is able to fill that void Liverpool will suffer. It will be an interesting statistic to see the goals Salah scores without Mane helping him.

Undoubtedly. Now, I believe Klopp will certainly adjust his game strategy/tactics to the new players he has at his disposal, in order to make up for this absence. Even so, it will always take a while to adjust.

@JollyGood Mane wasn’t just a player he was that piece of the puzzle that was sticking this Liverpool side together, and constantly pushing them to win hence it’ll take a season or two to replace him. Lastly I’m not really sure that Salah will be fine without him, because I’m personally expecting him to score less goals this season due to Mane’s transfer.
Mane was brilliant, scoring goals and creating plenty of chances and his performances have won back the trust of Liverpool fans. And I think he was one of the most dangerous players when he was in the EPL.
Mane was a good striker and player during his time at Liverpool but Salah was the backbone of this team and I am sure there will be changes for Liverpool and also Salah because Mane and Salah are a very good pair but sadly separated.
2738  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Today is the story of my investment in Bitcoin on: July 26, 2022, 08:58:49 AM
I'd say that you should have done the other way and not with what you did. Taking a loan isn't really a good idea for your bitcoin and crypto investments.

I can't imagine on how much all the interest that you've got and the market won't be favorable to us in times that you're about to pay all of your debts.

But I think that before you did that, you've got some back up plans on how you're going to pay that despite the market won't be that good during the time of payments. I guess you've got other sources of income where you can pull your money for paying those debts.

Anyway, it's already there and hoping that we'll see the better market in the upcoming days/months/years.
It is very risky to invest anything from the proceeds of the loan and if expectations are not matched, although investing in bitcoin is not a bad thing as it will definitely be profitable in the long run.
and it looks like the OP has planned and thought about the risks and made sure he has other income to be able to pay for it, a very bold decision and I hope what he is planning to work out as bitcoin is not easy to predict.
2739  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA World Cup 2022 Group Stage Highlights on: July 26, 2022, 04:18:28 AM
For Group G will be against Brazil, Serbia, Switzerland and Cameroon. Apart from Brazil who will win the group, the other three teams can be said to have very balanced strengths and all three deserve to finish in second place in Group G to accompany Brazil to the next round. And I hope Switzerland will go with Brazil.
Many predict that Brazil will win, including Adenor Leonardo Bacchi (Tite) who is optimistic that he will become champion, but that is not necessarily the case because many countries have many star players and talented young players.
2740  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My old officemate become millionaire on investing on Bitcoin on: July 26, 2022, 01:56:16 AM
That's a nice story to hear. The takeaway for me was that unlike the others he held because he forgot about his investment. The irony being that he could of sold back in 2017 just below $20K and started his business many years ago, but that's beside the point really. The most challenging parts of hodling is not taking profits too early, selling too late, or failing to buy back. Forgetting about the investment certainly helps here!

Glad to hear he became a peso millionaire either way Cheesy
Forgetting about your investment really helps because instead of checking the price chart to keep updated, you tend to ignore its current price and also it’s price fluctuations. Good thing because you won’t be bothered every time the price of bitcoin drops, as you are not totally obsessed with your investment. Also, hodling makes a lot of difference than selling in short term. Even though not all investors can keep their patience and hold firm their investments.
Forgetting doesn't mean not knowing the future, because I'm sure most of those who forget to invest in bitcoin already know and believe that the future will improve and be very profitable, and the OP's story was very lucky to be able to resell it after knowing the increase in bitcoin.
investing in bitcoin and forgetting for years is a very good way because we all know the future will be much better and very profitable considering its growth and increasing popularity, and actually i want to do it but it is very difficult due to sudden need which sometimes happens by accident unexpected that forced me to use it.
and I invest in bitcoins for reserve funds that I can use when I really need them and only use them as needed.
