That is some intense drama unfolding at Anfield Road now as Liverpool is losing 0-1 and Inter has got a red card.It was so far a balanced game but it looks like the balance of the game will be now thrown behind.If it is true that away goals do not count then we are in a full draw so far and Inter looked to be more dangerous in their attacking compared to Liverpool.I don't know what to bet but most probably that there will be no more goals in the regular time should be the obvious choice.
It was a shame that a good game was ruined by a red card but it is what it is.

I'm not sure if Liverpool fans would be happy with their club's performance but they are already through to the quarter-finals. It should be fun if they draw Bayern Munich next hehe.

what did you expect? It wasn't a friendly match, the teams were both struggling as if they are both pushing a thug of war. Inter Milan had a chance to change the game but Liverpool was prepared in their home. I don't know why Sanchez couldn't calm down, red card and a yellow card on a single match as professional he his.

Tomorrow's match between Real Madrid and PSG will be exciting to watch.
2802  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What websites you use for live scores? on: March 08, 2022, 10:38:55 PM
Live score isn't only my best, it's also great for beginners since it allows them to simply move through multiple tabs with favourite sports, and the ads don't crowd out the information, and you rarely see the unnecessary videos that you see on other live scores. It recognizes your session and allows you to favourite a club without requiring you to join up. The app is quite simple on IOs, especially for me, however, they still support outdated wap phones which is cool.

You should try their Android application: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.livescore&hl=en&gl=US

Much cleaner, much lighter, much more convenient, easy access, simple interface, user-friendly. I will bey my 1-month salary here if they failed to give you that kind of good experience lol.

Better than accessing the website especially if you are on a trip or away at home.

I don't use Android, it's an Ios device and after comparing the two with All football(an app on apple store), I prefer the second one even though it's limited to football, I'm yet to see any information you need about football that you wouldn't see on the App.
It gives detail of every player, the team and also the history, I will love to mention some other features but it will look as if I'm reviewing or promoting, however, it is a very cool app for any football with fewer ads when compare with Livescore.

Cryptocurrency is ruling the digital world and it is the new face of the fintech world. It is not a wonder that bitcoin had reached great heights and so the other altcoins. It is normal for a trader to invest some of the savings in any of the altcoins so that he can reap the profits in a short period of time. But it does not apply to an entrepreneur like you. Being an entrepreneur is searching for new opportunities and hence you will have to have a broad vision when it comes to investment.

In that case, it is more efficient to start your cryptocurrency exchange software rather than just investing in an exchange. Starting a cryptocurrency exchange from scratch could cost you more time and investment. So, it is more beneficial to start your cryptocurrency exchange from a popular clone script

Aside from the belief you are supporting the btc network, which you are really not, since your pruned node is not supplying the full blockchain and you are not mining new blocks. It is literally just a waste in your case as long as expensive mobile is your only internet.

You made points to some levels, and I'm not sure why I was thinking about prune node when I wanted to operate a Full Node. What is the use of a Full Node if I can't transmit them to other Nodes or offer a copy to other Nodes? My question is even invalid, and I shouldn't have to bother scratching my head. I have found an option for a low mobile plan that would cost me around $80 for over 500GB, based on my calculations. I'll execute the entire procedure and provide an update if everything goes fine.

I been they read some of your write-ups about Taproot and segwit and your personal text just enter my eye. Happy 2 years on Bitcointalk brother, you they motivate me.
This Ukraine and Russia fight way they happened, I pray make things end sharp sharp so that peace go finally rain again because the corona way happened still they affect global economy and every business. Some childish comments way I they see for Twitter just they make me pity some kids that are fueling for WAR unfortunately some of their parent still they sub for their phones.
while other countries get plenty money with standard facilities and education, Asuu and Federal government they still fight each other, na shame ooh  Cry Cry
2806  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Alternative way to set up bitcoin core without downloading the full blockchain? on: March 07, 2022, 06:45:14 PM
I'll download (about 400GB), which will cost me roughly $200 of internet plan
What? It shouldn't cost that much for downloading bandwidth unless it's mobile data.

There's no alternative way to have the benefits of a full node. You have to verify everything, which includes downloading everything if you don't already have it. To answer your question, yes, you can run a full node with only few past blocks. It it's not going to show you any money, unless you made transactions very recently.

Yes, you are right, it's mobile data and it wouldn't favor me that way. I would have loved to use a WIFI service but their mode of operation wouldn't work for me too, it is per hour and there is a tendency that their network bandwidth might even be slow and I have years of files to download

Do you mean the alternative from GitHub is safe for use? There is no option to download a few past blocks at the beginning of the bitcoin-core set-up, I have to download everything then decide later if I want to keep the whole past blocks (400GB) or just recent ones which I can set to about 2GB in size.
2807  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Alternative way to set up full node without downloading the full blockchain? on: March 07, 2022, 05:55:07 PM
I've been wanting to know how it feels to run a full node, and for the time being, I've chosen Bitcoin core. I've installed the program on my machine, but along the line, I was discouraged because of the large historical blocks I'll download (about 400GB), which will cost me roughly $200 of internet plan, and I'm scratching my head if there is another way to prune the block download from the beginning of installation rather than downloading everything and then later prune it. If there is a method for me to download only a maximum of 20GB from a few years back.

Again, while doing research, I stumbled across a Github page that suggested an option to prune blockchain exe, but I'm scared of downloading something I don't know anything about, even if it's open-source and the exe file is digitally signed by Rare Ideas, LLC, according to the page, who knows these company or people?



https://github.com/Blockchains-Download/Bitcoin/releases

I also read a comment where someone said it is not possible to download just part blocks as it going to be useless without the chainstate.

There are facts we should take into account, if the government had been able to get their dirty hands on half of Bitcoin's circulating supply, it would have been another story we would be hearing on the news today, but Satoshi was for the people and for the people, and they are not happy about that.
We don't know how certain bitcoin and decentralization will be in the future, but one thing is sure, we will get bitcoin into every home, and many trillions will be injected from their useless fiat to give bitcoin more value than it has ever had.
2811  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: looking for: exchanges fastest withdrawing on: March 06, 2022, 09:59:47 PM
Exchanges withdrawal speed depends on how busy is the chain you're are using at that time. I could remember doing a withdrawal on Solana chain as I hear they are ultimately fast in transaction speed and then gboa! Solana network became the talk of the media that it has failed and developers are doing everything to bring it back online. I was did a little research and I learnt it reach it maximum capacity of transactions and collapse.
A withdrawal from a centralized exchanges depends on the chain you're using and also internal withdrawals within exchanges are the fastest, may be it is an offchain transaction.

2812  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: March 06, 2022, 05:08:36 PM
hearing that cristiano, cavani and luke shaw are not playing makes me doubt man united will be able to win in this derby match. This is really a great opportunity for Man City to solidify their position at the top of the standings, I'm curious how many goals Man City can score in this match when Man United are not strengthened by their core players.

It was expected that Ronaldo absence will have a significant impact on Manchester United match, the way the match is going, Manchester City will undoubtedly win the derby March.
Even with Ronaldo present, I think will have a tiny chance of beating Man City because they were unable to defeat Watford, which Arsenal had given a nice victory.  Man united has much more to do to qualify for champions because the margin goal point is very small with west Ham.
2813  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: March 06, 2022, 03:43:20 PM
Watford and Arsenal are really exchanging blows in their match but fortunately for Arsenal they were able to keep themselves ahead right before the break of the first half and with the display of football they have showcased i dont think they will be throwing away this lead.
Inplay prediction, Watford 2-3 Arsenal

Did you see Foster reaction when arsenal scored the third time, the face of frustration, watford will remain in relegation till next season.
Now that Arsenal has taken back 4th place, I think they still have chance to push towards 2nd place before their next matches, by 27th matches, they will be dragging place of Chelsea. By the way, saka has been a blessing for arsenal in both goal and assist.

.......


Your points are well-made, however they are constrained in several ways. That money part is important because as soon as a casino is launched in this gambling board, people hurry to see if there is any open promotion that they can participate in to win a few prizes. It's even a common practice that basically every casino on this board engages in from time to time in order to attract new customers.
You'll need that money to keep players on their toes after every win, if withdrawals are delayed, they'll change their playing ground.
2816  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Events Build Scam Schemes (Russian, Ukrainian Invasion) on: March 05, 2022, 08:43:58 AM
Some people take advantage of freedom that crypto has given everyone. If not for decentralization, it will be proper if we have crypto police or kind of investigation department that will check projects before launch, it will be a interesting aspect if we could dive into decentralized investigation to protect everyone in crypto, it will really boost confident, only if it will work though because audit are not enough for this smello projects.

Another thing is that, now a days investors love anything that has to do with quick money, the quickest way to magically turn water into wine and live their dream life. Cheesy
If an investor can properly guide himself, they will save the say scammers and everyone the time to launch these schemes of cashing out  from people.

I noticed that too with my auto correct whenever I'm writing words that had to with bitcoin and Bitcoin. I was getting tired of it at a point and from my research, bitcoin is use in writing to indicate Bitcoin as a currency and Bitcoin as it main protocol and anything other things that had to with bitcoin network.
If I have 0.1btc, I may decide to put it like 0.1 bitcoin and for it protocol for example: I was able to download the Bitcoin full ledger, that's how I make it easy for my self....
2818  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: My Past eight months bitcoin journey on: March 04, 2022, 06:33:35 PM
The thread has been updated with my 9th month of Bitcoin DCA journey and apologies for being late this time as have told you all previously that was busy somewhere else but have now taken out time to update the thread.

This time I went on different approach and invested $100 each week without expanding the incremented amount because there were some fund issue on my side but still decided to cope up and not hinder my investment journey which i have started so somehow managed funds.See we need to go some miles extra if we want to reach our destination and mine is still far away so going back is not a option now and getting profits also.

Will answer the above questions soon .

I must say that you are well disciplined to be able to do this for straight 8 months into doing dollar cost average, I hope you are still eating enough, I don't joke about food, you need to be fit in other to survive the two jobs without harming the inner system.Wink

The current price of Bitcoin at $40,888, $2800 will give you roughly 0.06848 which is slightly bigger than the current amount of BTC you were able to accumulate, wouldn't it be better to stack the $$ and buy bitcoin during the dip times. From July 14 of last year till now, bitcoin has dipped multiple times. You would have been able to get more of Bitcoin instead of weekly buy that will end up at high prices.

Ofcourse I know how important the private key is. I wouldn't have shared all the words to the vendor and would have opted to do it from 3-4 different vendors.
That's the reason why I made this thread to ask how the engraving is done at first place. I was wondering how so many people got their keys on the plates.
How can I do it myself because I don't have an engraving machine. This is why I was confused and thought to ask you guys here.

Are you aware that every workman or artisan has an association to which they all belong? They may not be in every association, but there is one that they had to attend in order to discuss their personal progress. You said that you would construct your seed on metal in various locations, have you though the likelihood of these men by chance, reviewed your workpiece as a discussion and boom! that's a catct to lose your coins to four wonders of the world at a simple round table!

There are videos and blogs on the web that can guide you on the DIY, your seed is only safe in your hands. You can stylishly go to a workshop for some self, just don't tell them you real intention of learning from them.
2820  Economy / Economics / Re: Decentralized assets might be the saving grace after the war on: March 03, 2022, 07:46:10 PM
Bitcoin has been a better store of value than any asset I have heard in my entire life, it may be volatile and have crashed several time but it has been a saving grace for Millions. If bitcoin highest price was $10 in 2010 and gold was worth almost $1k but today bitcoin price is around $43k while gold is still a less than $2k, tell me which is a good option for storage of value.

The world is watching, Russia want to eat what they produce and sell it within their self.

Storage of value asset should be having stable value and constant and consistent growth which isn't the same in Bitcoin, I do accept it has grown too much in the last 10 years even Santoshi couldn't imagine that but the fact is if you are selling all your assets to buy Bitcoin and consider it as best Store of value then you're taking life risk, diverse your portfolio and lesser the risk.

Interesting!
The gold you said earlier as an alternative to Bitcoin, has it been stable from your explanation? I think we need some basic understanding here, What exactly is a store of value?
From Investopedia:

Quote
What Is a Store Of Value?
A store of value is an asset, commodity, or currency that maintains its value without depreciating.

A store of value is essentially an asset, commodity, or currency that can be saved, retrieved, and exchanged in the future without deteriorating in value. In other words, to enter this category, the item acquired should, over time, either be worth the same or more.

Source: https://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/storeofvalue.asp

A store of value can be anything as long as it helps you maintain a value over time, a piece of land you bought for $100 may be worth $1000 in the future, if you have kept that $100 bill, it would have been eaten deeply by hyperinflation.
Bitcoin is always described as high risk (what is life without risk) and one of the most volatile digital assets, but be honest which one of the three(silver, gold and bitcoin) would you choose to invest in if you could go back in time and protect your wealth.  Wink
