Philosopher and environmentalist Troy Cross has arisen as one of the most prominent scholars making the case that bitcoin mining has certain special properties which make it ideally suited to powering the development of renewable energies. Check out his interview on the Futurati Podcast, where he discusses his radical proposals for new financial instruments that foster the 'greening' of bitcoin mining. Crypto mining is actually doing more harm than good, hence the urgent need to get crypto mining only done with renewable energy. So, Bitcoin mining could never solve the climate change. Moreover, its one of the many industries contributing to it. Unfortunately, Bitcoin mining is very energy intensive and many companies are still using the normal plug to the wall to mine it. This alone accounts for a lot of carbon dioxide being released onto the environment, so we actually need something to turn this around. |

As a newbie who has a little knowledge of cryptocurrency but much interest in purchasing bitcoin for a long time Hodl, since the purchasing capital is not included in my spendable budget and the price of bitcoin is not very high at the moment 16k, what should be my fear?
Pls, advise me.
Well, if you are buying at these prices I believe you are doing good as Bitcoin is pretty undervalued. I believe that we have hit a bottom and an accummulation phase may be ongoing, so I dont think you will be seeing such low prices so soon, or if ever again I might say. Your worst fear should be about the same every Bitcoin Holder has: see it going to 0 which I strongly do not think ot will. |

Ok, so Japan did not make it pass the penalty phase. Croatia was able to score quite easily and ended up eliminating the Japanese squad. Croatia is now at the quarter finals, so the team should either meet Switzerland or Portugal. Hopefully, Portugal will be able to go pass Switzerland.

The way England player the match against Senegal is Proof that the Squad is starting to get used to playing together. And now that they are starting to get into the rithim Im confident the team Will be One on the finals.

For tomorrow I think Brazil to win and Croatia to qualify are what I think and what I bet.If people did not make money in the first 4 games of the 1/16 they should probably quit gambling and betting because only stupid people or greedy ones did not win money through these games which all come as predicted and without any surprise.
I think that tomorrow no one of us expect a surprise from the Brazil game but I think that Croatia vs Japan is a difficult game to predict but of course based on experience chances are much higher for Croatia to qualify.
Well my view for this game went around the experiênce the Brasílian Squad already has with this sort of competition. They are better prepared and they have better players. Besides, south Korea Squad is already tired, só this should be an easy game for Brazil |

Two more games tomorrow for this Cup's phase:
JAPAN - CROACIA
BRAZIL - SOUTH KOREA
For tomorrow's games my picks will be:
JAPAN - CROACIA
The most likely scenario for this match will be the occurrence of some goals. The difference between the two sets is visible, with Croatia on one side, a team with good players, and Japan on the other, a team that has some weaknesses in its game model. So, I believe that both Teams score market is a value bet.
Both Teams Score
BRAZIL - SOUTH KOREA
The most likely scenario for this match will be for Brazil to be winning at half-time. In addition to the Brazilian team having an absolutely incredible squad, it still faces an “enemy” that has some weaknesses, especially defensive ones. It should be noted that the national team wants to decide the match in the first half so as not to be in trouble in the second 45'.
BRAZIL to Win at Half time
These are two good value bets with good odds, so I hope to hit the two and get a very pleasant profit

So, today we have for more important games: France - Poland
England - Senegal My tips for these two games: France - Poland The most likely scenario for this game is the existence of several goals. France should dominate the impact of the match, as it has a much higher eleven compared to the Polish team. On the other hand, Poland enters this game very focused on gaining access to the next phase, however, it should offer many chances to the French. Both teams score England - Senegal It should be noted that England conceded only two goals in the three games played in the group stage, so I predict the most likely scenario for this challenge will be for England to win. The difference between the English and the Senegalese is visible, that is, it is expected that the England team enters the game very strongly and demonstrates its favoritism right from the start of the match. England to Win RESULTS France 3 - Poland 1
Both teams Score
WIN
England 3 - Senegal 0
England To win
WIN Made some few bucks with these ones. Got a good profit from France game as I was able to pick a god odd for both teams score. |

My strategy is to hold it long-term. In my early days of Bitcoin, I would use it as currency, but even though I was trying to help the system and help it be used as a currency, that was my worst mistake. Due to that, I ended up spending my Bitcoins indiscriminately and today, I'm short on Bitcoin. Now, my mission is to hoard bitcoin and store it to hold on to for dear life.

Online Casinos Without Online Presence/Community
From my observations, I think online casinos without online presence or community of users are likely to scam any user and get away with it easily, and it doesn't matter if they have a high trust rating, this is because when they refuse to process your withdrawal and the customer support is not responding or not helping, the user in reality have no place to complain that will force the casino to pay him of lose a great number of their users if not all...
Like for example, if a casino have a community on bitcointalk, and you are a user of that casino, at any time you have an issue with that casino and the customer support is not helping, bringing such issue to their community on bitcointalk will force the casino to find solution(s) immediately so that they don't lose their other customers in the case where they are the ones at fault..
But a casino without any kind of community anyway, if as a user, you encounter any problems and the customer refuse to help you, you are absolutely helpless, and complaining on forums where the casino is not even known won't help because it does not affect the casino on their business, they probably won't see your complaints, neither would their other customers do, so certainly, they won't answer and their other customers also don't know what is going on.. So it is best to avoid such casinos in my best opinion..
This is just one out of many types of online casinos to avoid, so let's make the discussion long, what other types of online casinos do you think gamblers should avoid? You never can tell, your advice might help someone in a short of long way.
I tend to face this, the other way around. I usually do not use shady or new casino websites and prefer to use the most-rated ones. If you use a casino that is out there long enough it means that this is a trusted casino. So, to take matters simply, a player should always use known casinos and avoid chasing crazy offers from shady casinos. |

This is still a proposal, and is still not in effect. Nevertheless, if this foes ahead, of course that it will have its implications, but as long as miners can find renewable energies, they will be alloewd to mine. so it is very important to understand how this ban will be applied. On the other hand, this will also give a bigger incentive for miners to try and find new renewable energy alternatives.
The problem of alternative renewable energy currently has no solution, most miners still depend on electricity which is so expensive. Indications of the involvement of the government and miners are likely to be pros and cons that will not be resolved, considering that bitcoin is often used as a scapegoat for problems that befall a country in financial terms. That's why bitcoin bans in several countries will continue to appear because there is no solution to this problem and this is very detrimental for some miners. Thing is, Big energy companies are starting to show interest in the Bitcoin mining industry. Recently, Shell stated the company was developing green energy solutions for Bitcoin mining. They are also supporting various projects in the Web3 space, so they are going full speed ahead with this. This surely means that others will follow, and soon we will have a lot of pressure from these multinational companies to governments that are not friendly to bitcoin mining. |

Soccer Tips for this Sunday - 04/12/2022 Italy - Serie B1- Brescia - Reggina This is a match where betting on the home team's victory or a draw (double chance) is the best choice. While Brescia will fight to avoid losing points, Reggina, who plays this match away from home, despite occupying the second place in the championship, showed instability when playing away from home: with 3 wins, 3 losses and 1 draw in 7 matches played as a visitor. Brescia to win or a draw (double chance) 2- Génova - Cittadella Despite having shown an unexpected drop in performance, having reached their fourth consecutive game without a win in the last round, after being beaten by the last placed team in the league away from home, Genoa remains undefeated at home this season. On the other hand, Cittadella won only one of the last 10 matches they played, of which they lost 4 and drew 5. In this way, you have to bet on the victory of the host team (Genoa to win), seeming to us the best option for this match. Genoa to win 3- Cosenza - Perugia Playing at home, Cosenza tries the second consecutive victory at home to move away from the relegation zone. On the other hand, on the rise in the league, Perugia tries to surprise in this away match to, after a long time, finally leave the bottom of the Italian Serie B. In this way, the need for victory of the teams is evident, both of which are motivated by coming from positive results. Therefore, it is difficult to determine a favorite to win the three points, but the chances of many goals happening in this game are great. Over 1,5 goals 4- Benevento - Palermo This is a match for few goals, considering that it is a direct confrontation to escape the relegation zone of Serie B of the Italian Championship. Both teams have the same number of points and are only 1 point ahead of the first club within the direct relegation zone to Serie C. under 1,5 goals Spain - Segunda División
5- Santander - Lugo
The most likely scenario for this match is a good result for the home team. Racing Santander plays in its best condition, where it achieved most of its victories and scored most of its goals. Lugo, on the other hand, is playing in its worst condition, where it only achieved one victory. We expect a game dominated by the home team, who should control ball possession and create the main goal situations. Santander to win 6-Eibar - Huesca The most likely scenario for this match is a good result for the home team. Eibar play in their best condition, where they achieved most of their victories and scored most of their goals. Huesca, on the other hand, is playing in its worst condition, where it has only won one and scored just four goals. Eibar to Win 7- Levante - MálagaThe most likely scenario for this match is a good result for the home team. Levante are playing in their best condition, where they have scored most of their goals and have only suffered two defeats. Malaga, on the other hand, is playing in its worst condition, where it has only won one. We expect an open game, dominated by the home team, who should control ball possession and create the main goal situations. Levante to win Romania - League I
8- Argeș - Rapid
The most likely scenario for this match is a game with few goals. Arges plays in its best condition, where it achieved most of its victories and scored most of its goals. Rapid, on the other hand, plays in their worst condition, but their attack has scored regularly even so. We expect a balanced game, but with fewer clear goal opportunities than the market anticipates. Above 2,5 goals 9- Newry City - PortadownIt's expected for Newry City to attack with great intensity. The visiting team cannot commit defensive mistakes on the pitch. I see the hosts as favorites, so I bet on Newry City's triumph at the end of the first half. Newry City to win at first half Cyprus - 1st Division
10- Apollon Limassol - AEL Limassol Apollon wants to take advantage of playing at home to score points. The visiting team is aware that they will not find facilities. I see the home team as favorites, so I bet on their triumph at the final whistle. Apollon Limassol to Win |

South Korea x Portugal -> Portugal
Ghana x Uruguay -> Ghana
The last games:
Brazil x Cameroon -> Brazil
Serbia x Swiss -> Serbia
Incredible, 4 of 4 guesses wrong  My real bet on Ghana was lost obviously, so today, the first day of round of 16 I didn't place any bet After all I won 6 bets and lost 3, I need to be careful to not lose more bets, so I'll study better the odds, I know it's obvious to bet on England and France, but the odds for France victory is only 1.35, and England victory 1.57  A multiple bet on both, can give 2.11, maybe this is the way to go, I'll think more about until the game begins. Yeah, was not lucky at all with these last predictions and am at a loss now. You have checked the analysis. I guess the analysis was there but soccer is always surprising, so you cannot win them all, but I SURE hope I do not lose them all  This next turn, I hope I can recover form the losses and get my money back. |

I guess Switzerland will have their job made easy with Portugal. Portugal is not playing well at all, so the Swiss team should have their way opened on to the quarter finals
I'm afraid that the Portuguese squad is struggling with its organization amount other issues as is the trainer relation with some of the players. It already had its toll and it clearly showed its impact on the last game with Korea. So this should be an easy peasy bet.

under-age gambling.any side effects? Firstly gambling is a habit that becomes an addiction when not properly control and its really gonna eat you up likewise making you restless and not always focused on things you should do. The rate at which i see young minds and teens involved in the act of gambling in my area is really alarming and because of the poor regulatory bodies controlling the laws in my area they can't really do anything about this and its really affecting this young age. Gambling has become a thing for everyone in my locality with out any age restrictions and am just curious If this is not going to cause side effects on this young gamblers. Just the other day i was predicting some games in the world cup in a betshop cause my network was bad so i can't stake online so i decided to go to the betshop to place the bet, then to my shock i was boy aged around 14 to 15 years who came in and gave the cashier a booking code to place the bet and give him the coupon and the cashier collected and i was like isn't this too little to be involved in such acts. And am just curious if this won't affect the person in times to come 20 years ago, there was no control and any kid with 12 years old could easily start gambling online. With the advent of online gambling, many of us started playing before having 18 years old, so I guess we are the generation who can better answer to that. I had a few friends that got addicted to gambling at some point but eventually they ended up finding their way. I guess that nowadays, with KYCs and stuff, its getting very hard for kids to start gambling, but in a way, that are already "gambling" with those online pay for win games and they don't even have a chance of having a big win. |

There's nothing new here. Bitcoin and any other means of exchange will always be used for scamming. Even when Bitcoin still did not exist, we had telexfree ponzi scheme and several others that were done with cash.
Now, if they use Bitcoin to cover their tracks, they will eventually be unmasked as we all know that there is an ongoing clampdown on Bitcoin mixers and one way or another transactions can be tracked.
Long before Bitcoin's inception, scamming was already done. Some made it with gold while others have done it with cash, and even goods, so Bitcoin is not the problem. As with everything in life, humans are the problem

Some years ago, the most cheapest coins you can find is Dogecoin, Litecoin and Bytecoin, my question is what the heck happened to Bytecoin? I remember I piled up some and just lock them away, my expectation on this coin isn't big though, I was just learning then.
Looks like we're on the same boat as I also have piles of this coin. Unfortunately, it seems that it has grown cold and no one seems to care anymore. Maybe we could try to get in touch to the developers and try to have them come back to the project. I still have mine stashed and would like to turn it into Bitcoin... |

They say two good heads are better than one, I couldn't agree more. Here's a an unconventional betting strategy that me and my friends have come up with to bet on some of the world cup games. I totally love it because we have cashed out about $1000 since the games began. Also, it minimized the losses and everyone goes home happy.
The strategy - We created one betting account with a local gambling site prior to the World Cup Games. We all contribute equal amount of money to fund the wallet. And using different analysis we place our bets on at least 3 of the world cup games every day.
For me it has a lot of advantages -
- it minimizes losses
- it reduces the chances of being addicted
- it helps to build bonding. We hang out. We watch the game and we have fun.
- We have a budget and we stick to it. It sorts of builds accountability.
Do you have a unconventional betting strategy that have been working for you? Do Share.
I did not understand what was the strategy you usedto stay on the profits. You basically told us how you and your friends organize to bet in a joint effort but you did not explained what sort of strategy were you using. Do you look for valuable odds or do you bet on ongoing games with the most possible outcome? So, when you are placing the bets what matters the most for you guys_ |
