at least he didn't say something unrealistic although it could be that he exaggerated the time period because it was short, 1 year is too short, looking at the current price of 40000$ and knowing that the price was already at 69000$ and fell a lot so we can see that first before going up a lot it needs to go down a lot and consolidate for some time while waiting for another big good news to win a big impulsu and go up a lot again, but i think it would go up to 80000$ and then it would go down a lot and then would rise again to 100000$ and this cycle can take more than 1 year. so I think $100,000 in a year is still not realistic
The target of 100k in a year is not feasible with the current situation, we all know that Bitcoin's growth cycle, Bitcoin will reach ATH and will then collapse and take at least 2 or 3 years we can see Bitcoin's recovery. Bitcoin's cycle may not be the same, BTC had an ATH last year so hitting a new ATH this year is also possible but the 100k target is unlikely. I agree with you, the next ATH of the BTC will be 80k and then adjusts a while before it can reach 100k$.

In my opinion, FUD always appears when the price of cryptocurrency experiences a significant increase especially when the price of bitcoin rises significantly. However, FUD does not have much effect on the price of crypto assets, because experienced investors do not panic and already know how to deal with FUD.
sometimes there are people who deliberately create FUD for personal gain, when the price drops drastically he will take advantage of the moment to buy on a large scale. I don't think this is talking about panic or not because when FUD occurs the price will most likely drop drastically. selling does not mean panic because sometimes we have to sell to avoid bigger losses and you can also buy again when the price has reached the bottom, and it is part of the strategy to deal with FUD. Therefore FUD will always exist every year, because as you said, most of the circulating FUDs were created for personal gain. And we have to get used to the FUD that is widely circulated, don't panic if the FUD appears and makes the market crash. Actually we can overcome FUD according to our respective strategies, some use the stop-loss feature when FUD occurs. So we can avoid big losses and can buy more coins that we have sold at low prices. There are also dealing with FUD by remaining calm and holding until the market recovers, do a strategy that we think is effective. Most importantly we should not panic when FUD occurs, if we panic we will give benefits to others, who will buy the coins that we sell at low prices. That's the purpose of FUD, to make some investors panic and provide an opportunity to buy coins at low prices. Fuds will always be on the market even though it will never win, the purpose of the Fuds will be to push the market down and create panic and sell-off among the weak. So Fuds is a good opportunity for us to buy at the bottom. There are many ways to overcome the Fuds, I would choose the strategy of buying when the price drops more than selling all and waiting to buy back because sometimes the Fuds don't last and the market can bounce back at any time.

I think the crypto market seems to be starting to get better and heading into the green during the third week of April. Even now the bitcoin price has broken through the $41k area again. Therefore, looking at the current price movement there seems to be no obstacle for bitcoin to hit its $50k price target in the next few weeks.
But I guess this is where the price is going to play along, $40k range and maybe up to $45k. I still have doubts that we will hit $50k just like that. It you would remember, we have a sort of mini bull run from $39k to $48k only. It didn't reach the peak price of $50k as others have predicted. So there's no way that suddenly we will go and touch $50k again without any good news. Only 9 days left to the end of April, if Bitcoin continues to maintain its slow and steady gains, we can expect a price of $45k for this month without any FUD. Previously, I was expecting $50k for the end of April target but it seems all my predictions fell short of expectations. Indeed, we need positive news to have the momentum to push bitcoin to the $50k, news of Australia launching Bitcoin ETF and Ethereum ETF was the reason for the slight increase in Bitcoin but it was not enough to cause Bitcoin to spike.

Legalization maybe a good thing for Bitcoin, but government will always find a way to regulate it. The good thing is, they cannot control Btc transactions. So, yeah legalization is somehow a good contribution to mass adoption.
Legalization is only good so that we can easily use bitcoin publicly without fear of breaking government laws and can help us avoid scammers, complaint when a dispute occurs But legalizing Bitcoin will make us lose our anonymity because the government will find a way to manage our Bitcoin through KYC, worse yet, the government will intervene in the bitcoin price to make it more stable and be able to control it however they want.

My question is why is he so interested on buying twitter, am sure he has an ulterior motive for wanting twitter. @OP's explanation of him wanting to make doge popular is just a part of it, I think there is more. I hope the twitter ceo won't let Musk get his hands on twitter for whatever the price he may offer.
Elon is a very smart person, spending a ton of money to buy the most famous social network in the world just for Doge to become famous is not worth it and not convincing. We don't know how many Doge he owns but I'm pretty sure it will be nothing with the 43 billion he will spend on twitter. Twitter acquisition I think its not doge related. We all know how powerful social media is, if Elon succeeds in this deal he will make twitter a powerful tool for his business.

Bitcoin is good, it’s more stable than altcoins and can’t be manipulated easily.
I disagree. Although Bitcoin is the largest coin by market capitalization today and is not controlled or regulated by anyone, price manipulation still exists and happens on a daily basis. Yea, some people might say that altcoins or new projects are better because they can do over a hundred times, but the truth is that your chances of finding such a project is close to zero. So, if you want to keep it safe, you are better go investing in Bitcoin unless you have more than enough to spare for the market, then you can go on and invest in as much as you want. But for now, your best choice are the big coins; BTC, Ethereum, and that’s just it for me.
New projects have the potential to increase prices more than a hundred times in a short time, this is entirely possible but then it will plummet or disappear forever from the market so it's quite risky to invest, especially for newbies. Bitcoin cannot grow several hundred times like shitcoins but bitcoin is more stable and secure. Bitcoin will still be profitable in the long term as demand for bitcoin ownership is growing.

In my country saving money in a bank account is still very common even though it's not profitable. My grandmother and even my father have almost all his savings in a bank account that is paying 0.1% interest rate for the last 5 years. With inflation rates of above 2% they are losing money every year. I keep telling them that there are better alternatives to at least protect the money against the inflation, but they are not listening to me. The strange than is than they are complaining every month how much more expensive food and other things become. I don't see that interest rates will rise a lot any time soon. The higher inflation is a very good situation for all the indebted countries and helps them to reduce their refinancing costs. That is why I would expect to see a constant higher inflation in the future with only moderate interest. It just doesn't make sense to bring anymore money to the bank. I would recommend anybody to look into staking rather than saving to get at least some return after inflation.
Saving money in the bank is not as profitable as staking but we cannot deny that it ensures the safety of our money. It is the right choice for the elderly because they focus on safety, they are not like us who can take risks to get bigger rewards. Staking brings high rewards but also contains potential risks if we choose the wrong coin. Therefore, should allocate assets reasonably, should not invest all in one place.

I really don't know how Bayern Munich does not have the money to go for Haaland but I really think Robert Lewandowski is going to make a move to Barcelona. And after all these, I think Real Madrid might be the destination for Haaland. Because the other player which they have been keeping an eye on is still staying at PSG.
Well i think that Bayern has the money to sign Haaland but it seems like they are just not willing to meet the outrageous demands of Haaland and his agent. Haaland asks for a salary of around 40 M€ per year if the rumors are true which is just crazy for a 21 year old players that has missed most of the games this season. What is even more ridiculous though is the fact that Haalands agent Mino Raiola wants 40 M€ for himself as a signing fee and Haalands father wants 30M€ for himself as a brokerage fee. That are 70M€!!! just for Haalands agents, that is just absolutely crazy and no club in the world should agree to such terms even if their money comes from sheikhs and oligarchs. Bayern is one of the clubs that could still afford such a deal as they are still having at least 100M€ lying in the Bank, they are just not paying such crazy unjustifiable fees for agents because they always spent their money reasonably and carefully. Clubs like Real Madrid (900 M€ of debts) and Barcelona (1,3 Billion € of debts) just keep signing new players even though they are broke already. Spanish clubs just can't deal with money apparently. Bayern could spend 1 Billion € for players and would still be financially healthier than Barca after that. Pretty crazy. Yes, I agree. I also think that Bayern Munich does have the financial capability of pulling this type of deal but they just do not want to risk it because it is quite unbelievable and to be a little ‘riding your luck’. so, I think it is best that they are not trying to pull out any type of deal like that. <>
Just few months ago, almost every Liverpool fan was skeptical about Sadio Mane contract but Klopp believed in him and since returning from the AFCON competition, he has revived his career. I sincerely think he have earned it. Haaland likely destination is at Etihad and not Real Madrid because he's not the first option for Real Madrid, Mbappe is. Sadio Mane is one of the best strikers Liverpool have, his contribution is quite big for Liverpool. Sadio Mane is also a player that is trusted by Klopp, especially this season Mane has shown his productivity as a Liverpool striker. So far Mane has scored 13 goals from 28 matches in the Premier League, it already shows that Sadio Mane deserves a contract extension offer from Liverpool. And reportedly Liverpool are interested in extending Mane's contract. But maybe because he is already 30 years old, Liverpool will consider giving a bigger salary and a long-term contract. Hopefully Mane and Liverpool find an agreement soon, because it would be very detrimental if Liverpool did not extend Mane's contract. Regarding Haaland, many have linked his move to Man City, because since the beginning of this season Man City are looking for a striker to replace Aguero. And indeed Haaland is considered very suitable to play at Man City, I am sure Haaland will grow even more if he is coached by Guardiola. Then Real Madrid was reportedly very interested in signing Haaland too, but because Real Madrid's main focus was Mbappe, Haaland is very unlikely to join Real Madrid. I am going to be really surprised if I see the contract of Sadio Mane not getting extended. he is a great asset for Liverpool and Liverpool should also treat him that way. I really don't think that him being 30 years old is going to be that much of a problem. Erling Haaland is going to be a great addition and also going to play well in Manchester City I believe. But what I am concerned about is the injury issue.

The thing is we cannot underestimate Frankfurt because they beat the best team in the Europa league which is Barcelona to get here. I know that Westham is a great team and they also face better competition in the English Premier League. and I honestly think they might be able to win this match but I start to have my doubts when I think that Frankfurt beat Barcelona in their previous match in Europa League. they were a little lucky but they did win. Indeed Westham game really reflects most of the English Premier League teams that are aggressive in attacking, but I think the pattern of Westham and Frankfurt's game doesn't look much different, if you watch the match against Barcelona in the last quarter-finals, surely you know the advantages of the Frankfurt players with speed and also a solid defense, so I think both teams might have the same big chance to reach the finals later...
Yes, the both teams are very much evenly matched, and it is going to be extremely difficult to pick a winner. Both teams (West Ham & Frankfurt) would be looking at the possibility of going all the way to the trophy, which will guarantee them a ticket to next seasons Uefa Champions League, that is going to be huge for either of this clubs if they can achieve that, but first one has to eliminate the other and make it to the final. My money is on West Ham by the way, i think they would just edge Franfurt by the tiniest of margins, i admire David Moyes so much as well as what he is doing with this team, he has turned them to winners, and they have been winning lots of games this season, if they can win the Europa League then that will be a perfect end to a great season for them.

For the game in the future Villareal must change the strategy, because those carried out by them in the match against Bayern Munich will be different from the match against Liverpool, currently Liverpool plays very aggressive, fast and measurable, diliga themselves they are in the best game, so need to be watched out by Villarreal In the match, Liverpool is not a small club in the Champions League, they experience Champions League champions 5 times if I am not mistaken I really don't know how Villareal should approach this match because I know that playing ultra-defensive is not going to work and I also know that going hyper-aggressive is also pretty risky against a team like Liverpool who can break really fast with the counterattack. And in the last match against Bayern Munich they have played quite aggressively and this time if they do the same I think Liverpool might expect that. It's quite a hard puzzle to solve at least for me.

You are right. Good luck in winning the match. Experienced coaches and beautiful match techniques are also required. Villarreal were able to beat a strong team like Bayern Munich despite having fewer star players in the squad, mainly due to good luck and good tactics. Liverpool are much stronger than Villarreal in terms of performance. However, Villarreal's match strategy and luck are very good. So Liverpool has to perform very carefully.
The moments and strategies applied by the coach are very decisive, if they get pressure, but they can handle the pressure, then the match will happen like Villareal against Bayern Munich, Liverpool must be more vigilant in that match, because the winning spirit possessed by Villareal will give a amazing thing, especially since the coach will implement a strategy that Liverpool can't read, I think Liverpool will be in trouble for them, because this team is not targeting the champion, so the game will be a little easier without a burden I know that a lot of people did not give Villarreal any chance in that match against Bayern Munich and I was actually one of them. But I really think that in this match there are not going to be any surprises and Liverpool should win this match against Villarreal. And I am not going to be surprised if I see Villareal trying the same tactics that tried against Bayern Munich. Because they know very well that if they sit behind and play defensive they will eventually lose that match so it is better to go down swinging.

Napoli vs Roma Atalanta vs Verona Its a very big night for Napoli and Roma in the Serie A, as a win for either teams put them in good contention for champions league football next season, while a defeats means there is lots of hardwork towards the end of the season. With Osinhem firing and Abraham also firing, it promises to be a goal fest tonight. A 2-2 draw perhaps ? What are your predictions?
Napoli try with 3 points achievement because keep on race got title Serie A with AC Milan and Inter Milan although remaining 3 points from Inter Milan and 5 points behind AC Milan, last failure get three points when defeating by Fiorentina almost close chance for Napoli with race title of Serie A in this season, but still have chance if can defeat AS Roma tonight, but another chance for AS Roma reach 4th standing position if can get 3 points tonight from Napoli because left 6 points from Juventus after several inconsistent match and give chance for AS Roma getting champion league position for next season. Napoli really failed to secure three points when they really needed it. I feel like that really should have won the last match against Fiorentina. If they did they actually could have had more impact on the points table and the competition would have been tighter. But they have been really inconsistent and now I do suspect that they might not get the whole 3 points from this match against Roma also. Because Roma has been playing quite well in recent times. 24' ongoing Napoli-1 vs 0-RomaYahh, Napoli has not been in the best of form recently. They lost in some matches that they should have won and they are really inconsistent even at this stage of the league. On the other hand, Roma is playing really well and their result has been really consistent in recent times. They did draw against some teams that are not really that powerful but still I think they are doing good football all around. So, I am not going to be surprised if they end up winning this match. Lets see what is waiting for...

Liverpool are planning to offer Senegal international Sadio Mane a new contract. The 30-year-old forward's current deal ends in 12 months. What will Mane decide? Continue to play together with your friend Salah or decide on a new challenge? Borussia Dortmund chief Sebastian Kehl says Manchester City have not agreed a deal to sign Norwegian striker Erling Braut Haaland, 21. Does that mean that Haaland is going to Real in the end? Bayern Munich chief executive Oliver Kahn says the club do not have the financial might to sign Haaland. Kahn also confirmed the club are in contract negotiations with Polish forward Robert Lewandowski, 33. Bayern can't bring in Haaland but the question is whether they can keep Lewandowski at the club as well? Arsenal could let as many as 12 players leave this summer with Germany goalkeeper Bernd Leno, 30, Spain defender Hector Bellerin, 27, and France forward Alexandre Lacazette, 30, all set to depart. A lot of players are leaving. What's going on with Arsenal? Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti says Croatia midfielder Luka Modric will finish his career at the club. The 36-year-old has been linked with moves to Newcastle and Manchester City. Has this finally confirmed that Modric will stay at Real until the end? Source: https://www.bbc.com/sport/61135140I think Sadio Mane is absolutely a great football player and he is also playing really well for Liverpool and I really don't think there need to be any changes. I expect him to stay. I really don't know how Bayern Munich does not have the money to go for Haaland but I really think Robert Lewandowski is going to make a move to Barcelona. And after all these, I think Real Madrid might be the destination for Haaland. Because the other player which they have been keeping an eye on is still staying at PSG.

If Leverkusen will lose some more points and games in the next weeks its possible that they dont get an Champions League spot. Glad that Leipzig has won there game against Leverkusen as my bet was for Leipzig.
Congrats on your win! Leverkusen has now 2 fairly easy games (Fürth, Frankfurt) which it should be able to get at least 4 points. Then the last 2 games are against the direct competition (Hoffenheim, Freiburg). I think Leverkusen will keep the 4th rank until the end, unless the mess up their game against Freiburg in the last week of the season. Leverkusen was always going to win that match and I had no doubt about that because they were facing a team that is really struggling to stay out of the relegation zone. And now it seems to be a little easy for them because they will be facing fairly easy opponents in future matches. And I do not expect any surprises in them. I think right now there might actually have a chance to finish in the top 3.

Here the odds of the top games next week: St.Pauli vs Darmstadt 2.6/3.5/2.6 - completely open game. Both teams were struggling a bit recently, a draw helps neither of them to reach the safe 2nd rank. I think St.Pauli will win or we'll see a draw. Schalke 04 vs Werder Bremen 2.55/3.4/2.65 - also completely open. I think we'll see a draw here. If Schalke wins then they are pretty much through. Nürnberg vs Sandhausen 1.8/3.8/4.2 - Nürnberg the clear favorite, but Sandhausen has been playing well against stronger teams recently. I think Nürnberg will keep its momentum and win this game.
I think all of these games are going to be close and enjoyable. It is going to be interesting to see the teams that are top of the table fight to hold onto their position or get ahead in the points table. I think Schalke is going to stay at the top of the table and win this match because they have been playing really well in recent times. I really don't expect them to lose in this match. But, the teams below will also want to win in their match because they also are determined to get back in the first place.

This match is going to be important for both teams but I think Kolkata Knight Riders need this win more than Rajasthan Royals because they are below Rajasthan Royals in the points table and they also have played one more match. And that certainly puts them at a disadvantage. But I doubt that is going to happen because the Royals are in better form than Kolkata Knight Riders at the moment. KKR won the toss and decided to Bowl. Today we can see a competitive match between Rajasthan Royals vs Kolkata Knight Riders. After two big losses, the Kolkata Riders are very keen to compete against the Rajasthan Royals at Braburn Stadium. It’s a place where they haven’t won any IPL game. After all we are waiting to get good match between the two. However both of team are very much ambitious to win the game. According to my analysis i think, KKR to win the game.

~ Mushtaq and Qadir used to bowl in 80s and early 90s, do we have such sophisticated technology and strict rules at that time? How about Saeed Ajmal ? He was also a leg spinner and doing so good before got banned for illegal action. I don't know why any bolwer from big 3 is reported.
Saeed Ajmal was chucking and he could not rectify his bowling action even after getting a second warning and that was the end of his career. If there are players who are chucking the ball he or she will be reported and will be asked to rectify their bowling action and if you think that there are bowlers that have suspicious bowling action, we will have a debate on that and i want to hear from you which bowlers are having suspicious action from big 3 according to you . I really don't know if anyone from the big three has any suspicious bowling action. But it does look a little bit suspicious that the only bowlers are getting reported for suspicious action from outside of the Big 3. We all know that the rules of cricket are made to benefit the big three and we have seen the bowling action rules changing many times I wonder if that happened for the exact same reason.

Staking if you are holding for long term. But you should keep in mind about the volatility. You might get a 10% APY, but if the price of the coin falls by 20%, you lose 10% (if you sell. You don't lose anything if you don't sell). Bank interest gives you flat interest and the fiat currency isn't volatile. So you don't have to worry about your money in short term. But don't forget about the inflation. Your savings account will give you an interest between 1% to at best 3%, but the inflation in the long run leaves you with no profit/interest. Instead you will be losing money if you keep your funds in the bank for a long period of time. Worse if your country is facing hyper inflation.
I agree with staking as well. Volatility is one thing to keep in mind when you are staking and that is a scary thing. However, the banks are even scarier because they offer you "usually" less than what the inflation rate is. Look at the inflation rate in your nation and look at what the interest rate is, I can 100%guarantee you that it is almost always lower. It means that even though your money goes up, that means your profit doesn't go up and even though the amount looks higher, the value of that amount is lower. This is why bank savings means that it has nothing to do with profiting, you are actually losing money when you think you are earning. You have your security with your funds when you put it in banks. Whereas, with staking, it depends on the platform where you send your coins. How sure are you that they will not abandon the project? Good if for example, you are staking under binance. But with staking platforms offering high roi, I would doubt their longevity in the business. Also, you need to consider the coin you want to stake. Are they going to continue the increase of price or will its value decline after months and months of staking. There are pros and cons on both sides. Now, it is up to you how you will take those risks. Both have advantages and disadvantages. The biggest risk of staking is choosing a reliable project to place an staking is not easy. Choosing a coin to stake it is like we have to research, screen and monitor a project for us to invest in. If that coin keeps falling in price, cannot even survive a period of development. It's quite normal for us to lose. Bank savings obviously our money will be more secure but in the long run our money also depreciates because of inevitable inflation.

Op, good for you if that's really the case, and you can abandon banks. I know that I can't, not under current conditions. In my country, you need a bank account to receive a salary, it's obligatory in most places. Now, I'm doing some research, and to receive my grant I also, of course, needed a bank account. Also, I need it often to pay for important things online, such as to help my relatives right now, who are in Ukraine, and I often need to send money to someone's bank account (I could send BTC if they accepted BTC, but they don't). So I could abandon banks if there was enough freedom in terms of how to get a salary and how to pay for things online, but not right now, based on how things are done.
Unfortunately this is not a move that most people can make, where I live the amount of businesses accepting bitcoin are extremely limited, plus my salary is directly deposited to my bank account so I have no way to disconnect from the banking system, however that does not mean that I do not have taken some steps to rely less and less on them, but the day in which I can cut all ties to banks is still very far away for me and I do not see this happening even if a whole decade passed. Yes, if another decade goes by, banks will still exist and are necessary for us. Honestly Bitcoin is becoming more and more popular and accepted, but that doesn't mean Bitcoin is accepted everywhere, there are still a lot of countries and businesses that don't use bitcoin yet. Banking and fiat money are still the mainstay of the economy today. Thanks to Bitcoin, we can only reduce our dependence on banks. Instead of us investing and saving in the bank, Bitcoin is becoming an alternative in this case.

There was surprising results in this round with Derby winning against first placed Fulham but Reading also won against Sheffield Utd, so they are keeping distance from relegation zone and Derby. My main picks for this round Huddersfield and Blackburn failed to win in their matches and this complicates situation for play-off zone and Premier league promotion. Interesting in Championship is that difference from third place to twelve place is only ten points, that makes fight for play-off zone very unpredictable.
Fulham is facing some unexpected loss but I think it doesn't matter at the moment because they are still quite some points ahead of the second team and the lead is quite comfortable. I still think that Fulham is going to be promoted to the Premier League. The question is whale Bournemouth and Huddersfield be able to hold on to their position which seems highly unlikely at the moment.
