2981  Economy / Economics / Re: Can Bitcoin Reduce the Global Wealth and Income Inequalities in 2022? on: July 02, 2022, 01:11:00 PM
Bitcoin can be a relief asset to overcome inflation. But the way it has been dealing with the market most of the BTC will be in hands of big corporations and few individuals. This will worsen the inequality even more. Some people made luck in BTC by joining early but before the mass adoption, 99% of people on the plant will not be able to buy 1 BTC from the market. Its price is already unreachable price for most people.
They say that bitcoin have failed to become a hedge against the inflation, I think that is because its value have dumped a lot. It's okay if there are inequalities in this market because those who owns large number of bitcoin can sometimes pump and dump this market and if we are smart enough to know what to do during that situation, we can use that as our own advantage.

Definitely that many people cant buy a one whole bitcoin but they can always buy in smaller portions right after every dump. If they keep doing this, it's possible that they can accumulate 1 btc  in the future. The good thing about btc is that it's volatile which means that those who are late will still have the chance to enter and change their lives for the better.
2982  Economy / Gambling / Re: Rocketpot.io refusing to pay out 170k win on: July 02, 2022, 12:28:06 PM
Their terms state all withdrawals will be processed within 24 hours. It’s been over that now since I requested the $6000 withdrawal as I was instructed to do. I was told yesterday by Sofia who’s their vip manager it would be today latest. I’ll be giving reasonable time, but also taking any action necessary asap. With all my proof and evidence and them even agreeing my winnings were legit(see previous update).  Black and white, it looks like rocketpot is further delaying to not pay out what is rightfully mine.
Based on that terms they already cannot keep up with what they are promising, their being absence is questionable although there are no complaints against Rocketpot as far as I know this one is big that it depends on what road they are going to take, will they choose to not pay you and just close or pay and build their reputation as a casino that can fulfill its promise even the amount is huge, it's their decision where they are heading.
There might be complaints before but most of them are fake or doesn't have enough evidence. There's also legit complaints but it was lite and easy to fix while this one here involves a big amount. Still, it was their responsibility to pay whoever wins in a legit way.

I think that before a casino starts, they will first think if they can afford to pay a huge amount if ever someone wins it unless if they are not serious on this business and has an intention to turn into a scam later on but in the event they pay all the op's winnings, it could give them a good impression which can make their sales to skyrocket and they might earn more money later on.

I said earlier that they could do by agreeing to something in the middle and they did. Glad that it worked out in the end for Red as they do sure wouldn't want to let their Egyptian star out of the team and haunt them back in competitions playing for opponents. Klopp is said to be main man talking to Salah about plans before contract extension. So well done Klopp...
Mohammed Salah will not leave Liverpool this summer simply because Jurgen Klopp won't hesitate to lose two of key players this summer. The reds are really interested in extending his contract and the Egyptian will agreed to extend his contract with the team. Klopp is trying all his best to acknowledge that Mohammed Salah contract extension would be a lengthy one. That will be good news for Salah as his salary will increase with his extension of contract.
It is usually not up to Klopp, he is under contract and if the team wants to sell Salah, they can do that and Klopp would have to accept that. Plus he is getting players according to what they may need in the future and by the looks of it we are seeing Salahless Liverpool to be pretty decent. They can't just rely on one player anyway, which means that they will need to figure out for the future.

Salah being sold means that they could start that process a lot earlier on, and they are ready right now, could still be a top 3 team easily and wouldn't have to worry about their future because it will only get better for them after that as well.
2984  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: THIS CRASH IS DIFFERENT than previous crashes... The FEDERAL RESERVE is why.... on: July 01, 2022, 08:54:45 PM
^^The reason why there are so many people who just listen to other people is a bit more about human nature. We always feel ingrained to pick a leader, even if you get like 10 people together then you pick a leader. The human nature is to look up to someone, and let "some" of your freedoms go and be decided by someone else.

This is a horrible knowledge that many would argue against, and even prove revolutionaries as examples, but even there we have leaders. Hence, the idea of "letting all the work go, relax, sit down watch some netflix shows and allow another dude to decide on my financial future" seems easy and natural to many people in the world.

I am not sure whether there is a rivalry between the Bangladesh players and their Cricket board and hence they are performing badly. Players are always disposable and the board can always replace a player who is not performing better, only Shakib Al Hasan has some sort of dispute with the board as far as i understand and the only reason he is able to do so is because he is the best player Bangladesh produced.
It's not just Shakib. Most of the senior players are not happy with how things are being run by the BCB. And in most of the South Asian countries, the cricket boards are not really independent. There will be a lot of political interference. This is true in the case of all the 4 major cricket boards - BCB, BCCI, PCB and SLCB. Unfortunately, the payers suffer as a result of this. At some point, the ICC needs to step in. As per the ICC rules, cricket boards should be independent bodies, and if political interference is there, then the funds will be put on hold.
Sadly we are in South Asia having never been good sportsperson's in terms of bringing merit and best results for teams mostly when teams going to have good results we read inner politics and many other negative tactics by management to bring things down drastically even most of the time eleven out of eleven trying to have captaincy cap with no talent and skills. On other side, in Western countries or Australians are much better in this way as they prepare their players for having better concentration on their own game plane instead of going in other ways which help them positively, and they are able to bring much better results for their countries.

Political influence in this area is having his own impacts as well, just because of this we are much behind no in world even from few other Asian countries which are working on merit and having strong political system which is not having any role in sports.

How long will the Lewandowski transfer rumors continue, in fact Bayern Munich has rejected three offers from Barcelona. It looks like Bayern Munich has no intention of releasing Lewandowski even though they have officially signed Sadio Mane from Liverpool. No need to talk too much about Lewandowski, Until now there has been no agreement in the transfer process for Lewandowski's transfer, it is very likely that Lewandowski will stay at Bayern Munich until his contract runs out.
Right now this is big question in all people's mind what's going on because both parties were agreed for cooperation and Bayern Munich was also having all things settled for this transfer but suddenly their wired rejection is creating big question.

Maybe this is tactical or mind game from Bayern Munich as they don't want to give free hand to Barcelona for next season in Champions League because with this their attack could be lethal, and they can destroy any team with Auba and few more youngsters are already having good impact with their performance or now Bayern Munich is not feeling good with this transfer even they have their desired payment from Barcelona if they will not accept this then surely in next season he could be free agent.

Bayern Munich has no financial problem, so maybe they are not allowing to him for this season many questions but no solid reply.
2987  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: According to Sam Bankman-Fried, some Bitcoin exchanges are insolvent on: July 01, 2022, 05:39:38 PM
This ain't even a question in my mind. I feel like there is a good amount of them that are insolvent for sure. They end up getting hacked, getting attacked, doing mistakes, losing money and in the end there are tons of money missing from the coffers that should be there.

So, what do they do? They act as if profit making ponzi schemes, which means that if nobody cash out all of the money, they could use all their profits to get back to being solvent, but if anything happens before that then they are caught and they need to come clean. This is why I use binance, because I know that they are too big to be insolvent, even if they ever lose something, they can get it back before anything happens.

The only credit I got with that incredible campaign manager was the product of my job, that I want to praise him is because he is one of the best, I say the example with him because he has a lot of experience and of course, there are currently many scammers who are very cunning and apart from that they are intelligent and can deceive him and anyone, in fact here in the forum there are many campaign managers who have been cheated, but the probability is very small, in my case when a campaign is launched with them, the probability that they think that one of those casinos is fraudulent is very small. And you are right V2 was not as successful as V1, but also the point is that you can be more confident when it comes to NFT, at least it is easier to trust a casino than in 2021 when NFT games were everywhere, In addition, the market situation has been declining.
He is seriously the best at what he does. Don't get me wrong, I am not saying others are bad, but at the same time there needs to be one "the best" and he is the one. I personally love working with him, whatever project he works, I love working together with him. He is always fair, he never pushes you too hard unless you do something that is against the rules clearly.

If you are a decent poster, like do not do it for just the money but for real and you provide something then you are going to be fine. Rollbit is awesome for picking him, and their marketing has been awesome and got all of the NFT's sold very quickly, all because rollbit knew how to work the market and do the right things and push the right buttons.

When this tournament is used as a place to try strategies for big teams, then at least they can still play with good results. Because trying several strategies doesn't have to mean they always fail because the opponent is a weaker team, even though it's good for mediocre teams but that doesn't mean they can win easily. But yes, there is nothing more that can be done because everything has happened, I just find it difficult to accept the results obtained in this National League because as a big team of course they have several advantages even though they are trying a strategy at least they can still survive better because they have a squad with better quality.
Of course they could end up winning, there is no guarantee that it will be a loss, it just means that it is not going to be that easy to win when you are playing with some players who are not your regular starters, with a system that you are trying brand new.

Just like everyone else said, this is just a friendly thing, and it's going to be quite difficult to predict what the big nations would do. Sure the opponents are weak, but usually the huge nations do not face with teams like sri lanka neither, maybe a few games like that, but some tough opponents as well. Hence why the results are almost always unknown, and whoever finds a good strategy, they may win.
2990  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: June 30, 2022, 08:25:54 PM
There was a rumor that Jackson Muleka will be transferred to Beşiktaş, who had an excellent performance with Kasımpaşa last season, but Burnley seems to have finished this transfer. Burnley will pay around 5 million Euro for this transfer. Burnley is also interested in midfielder Samuel Bastien of the same team. This transfer is expected to end around 800k Euro. Transferring becomes difficult when English teams step in.
Muleka would be a great transfer for Beşiktaş, would have filled Larin's position. Now it will be necessary to turn to other players. It's very important to make the right transfer in that position. Because after the striker, left wing gives the highest goal contribution.
The 22-year-old Democratic Republic of the Congo striker has been very impressive since he was loaned from Belgium club Standard Liege to Turkish side Kasimpasa. He has scored an impressive 15 goals and providing seven assists. He has been in the radar of both Galatasaray, Besiktas and Trabzonspor  but English Championship outfit Burnley just submitted a £2.5 million bid. The striker should consider coming to England to help Vincent Kompany company’s side gain promotion to the premiership. Even if they fail to be promoted, if he puts up an excellent performance, Muleka might become a target of some big spending premiership clubs maybe after next season.
I mean it makes sense for Burnley to get him. First of all it is just 5 million and that is nothing to a team in EPL, they make more than that with just one of their sponsorship, let alone any other income which will be 10x more than that at the very least. Secondly, this dude had 12 goals and 5 assists in 14 games.

I know that Turkish league is worse than EPL by a big mile, but if that dude could do this there, then even if he has like half of the stats in EPL then they are going to be awesome. Think about it like this, if he plays 30 games, and has 15 goals and like 6 assists all year, wouldn't you consider that as a great transfer made for just 5 million?

2992  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: [Short story] How do I use bitcoin as a means of payment! on: June 29, 2022, 05:35:30 PM
Don't get upset OP,  but tbh, your story is not coherent in any way. There is no single relationship between the title of the topic and the body. And there is no conclusion that connects with the introduction.  The title is a question of how to use bitcoin as a means of payment, while the body is explaining how you have already made the payment.
Then if the land seller is a bitcoin personality as you said, why advising him to convert the bitcoin to stable coin? He should be aware of what to do with it.
Well, since your topic said of how you bought land with bitcoin, congratulations for using bitcoin to make a purchase.
Maybe there is only a typo on his title. He supposed to say "did not "do". He isn't the one that is asking but he is only telling his experience of using a bitcoin as a means of payment method. About the part where he gave an advice, I think there is nothing wrong with that. He is just concerned to the seller that his money can go down.

You know the situation right now, where the btc volatility is high while there are btc users that are loyal to their coin and won't ever convert them to any other coin. Selling a huge chunk of btc is not easy but it takes a lot courage especially now that we are in bear where you can feel that you are going to pay more btc's than usual.
2993  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Ignore the dip and Invest in Bitcoin for long term on: June 29, 2022, 02:16:11 PM
Take Bitcoin as a long term investment and just forget it like it’s in a long-term investment account. Don’t let your emotions get too much into it else you might make the wrong decision and sell at the wrong time. The  best thing you can do is to not look at it, even if crypto is going up or down. That’s exactly what I do especially now that it’s dipping, I don’t want to stress over it because I believe if I hold and wait patiently Bitcoin is going to rise again.
 My all time investment strategy is buying more when crypto is dipping, holding and selling back when it increases. In 2020 I bought ethereum when it was $700 and sold when it was $4000 in 2021. Within 2020 and 2021 when the price was going up and down, I decided to ignore the dip and hold on to it till I eventually sold at a good price.
 This is the right time to buy more cryptocurrencies especially Bitcoin because the  more people come into the market and increases their demand for it, its value continues to grow rapidly.
I tried acting like this in the past , I even wonder how to forget about the investment and let it there for at least 3-5 years , but suddenly ? i cannot manage to make it happen because it is hard to deny the fact that when browsing this forum we will be triggered to check the market from time to time so just admit it, we are here to check our valued asset each time and decide what to do after.
and this is why many are turning into losses because of panicking after seeing the market fall badly.
I think checking the market is not the problem, if you are not taking any actions then checking the market is fine. I haven't sold many coins for the past 2-3 years, I mostly bought and stored them on binance and did nothing else. Have I not been here? I have been here for so long that I actually earn enough money from writing here that I can put that into bitcoin and store that as well.

That 50 bucks I earned 2-3 years ago for writing a week? Well, that is now 200 bucks because of how much the price went up. This is how you make money, you buy and you hold, and if you really really need to, sell only a little. As long as you do that, you could always be here, or check the markets.
2994  Economy / Speculation / Re: Speculators : Bitcoins is up now 21k buy buy buy ! but... on: June 29, 2022, 12:09:00 PM
It's an invitation to buy bitcoin that many people are sending out to the people out there. But if people out there just follow those words without analyzing, they could be stuck buying at high prices because bitcoin's current movement is getting wilder. The person who wins is the one who can buy at a low price and sell at a high price.

But bitcoin is not a big scam or Ponzi and if people think like that, it means they don't read more information about bitcoin. Besides, they must be just following other people's words without doing any research before buying bitcoins.
They were smart enough to know that an increase in the price is what attracts those who are fake coiners or those mainly enters when there is a positive thing that happens and then leaves immediately when there's a decline or any negativity in the market.

A wise bitcoin investor won't buy in an instant but they will research btc first if what is its mechanics. They will still buy at this point since they know that the price isn't highway yet since its last ath and they will learn to hodl it if ever there's a decline that will happen. Obviously they will know that btc is not a scam or a pyramid scheme but some can think of it due to how this system works.

People why split the bitcoin and Ethereum,they are like a sisters.The traders who had huge money to inverse will use the bitcoin and get some bulk profits and do the bitcoin casino.Likewise people with small holdings will inverse in the Ethereum and get some profit from it.When the profit was achieved in the Ethereum ,the same Eth will be used for the casino.Mostly bitcoin casino was played among the big shots.
^ Good to see if the gambling casino supported these two top cryptocurrencies than supporting only one of them. Both are good and decent, both have a good system that can be used in gambling. But the only thing that I don't like is when your wallet is linked to a gambling casino like dapp which means you trust the casino with your wallet that possible may probably a leak to lead to a hack. Overall, there is nothing to say because they are both useful and both are good cryptos.
About that dapp thing you're talking about, is that the same as on owlgames? But, on owlgames you still need to pay something before the balance reflects in your account. What I thought is that once we connect our wallet with them, the balance will be reflected immediately but before I am very excited and happy when I heard some gambling sites support this because in my head, I won't need to pay a transaction fees anymore like what I do when I deposit a crypto on the traditional crypto gambling site.

The risk of dapp based casinos are only high because the entire wallet can get hacked. It's important to observe the casinos first for a long time before we trust them.
2996  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: June 28, 2022, 08:18:35 PM
Its a big score but they are fighting really hard tho.

They need 34 runs in 14 balls and it's possible in T-20. I felt that they are only relying on sixes, boundaries but not successfully rotating the strike it happened with the Irish openers specially Balbirnie and rest of the batters also doing the same. This is okay in small ground like this one but not successful strategy overall.

29 off 11 now so it's going down the wire.

-----------
Uff so close, hard luck for Irish team and big relief for youngster Malik.
225 against team like Ireland is very handy target but as they give reply surely Indian management need to think about this with IPL experience and having quality and skills they were in sweat to defend this target surely it's one of the best from Ireland even they lost match I am feeling still they could be proud with their performance.

Because, it's never been easy to play against team like India and having target like this then still losing by just four runs I am still had butterflies in my head what the hell we have in today match which was playing between India and Ireland just because of this thrill I am really love in this format and now looking to ICC they bring some more excitement with giving more chances to these teams for having more competitions against top ranked teams.

Why I said nope.

Because I need to active 2FA for Lockup Token (Only from my speculation, not from the side of the chip). But seem like for "inactive player" getting unstaked is true, if your account is inactivated for more than 7 days. The chips getting unstaked.

By the way, they more active on telegram rather than forum.
I think telegram is a place where you could have a "chat" which means that you could literally be working something that is more instant and that way they are getting more users. Here, it is all based on how many times people would post and we have seen that chip has been quite silent for the past few months hence why they do not give the focus they should.

Even if they wrote here, if people are not here then there wouldn't be any interest. I remember there was a place here which was a sportsbook, one of the first ones ever, and they kept on sharing stuff here, but nobody wrote, so they stopped, same logic for them as well if they found customers somewhere else, they will go there.
2998  Economy / Economics / Re: Solar panels set to be mandatory on all new buildings under EU plan on: June 28, 2022, 10:54:24 AM
I am not an expert, but I will try to come to a logical conclusion by throwing some googled data here. In a ~60m2 flat I spend about 5kw daily. I cant install solar panels on house facade only for myself, but I will copy data from "company that provide solar panel, installations services and etc". Company has a portfolio. From a picture of private house roof that says 5kw I see 8 panels.
You're mixing power and energy.
You're spending 5kwh each day, not kw, and solar panels don't come in kwh they come in more likely watts alone.
If you have 4x250 watts panels (1kw), and you have 4 hours of sunshine you will produce 4kwh of power that day.

So basically you will need 5 panels for your consumption.
I think that ain’t too bad, 5 panels could cost a bit when you are starting out, but from what I understand you are not going to spend another single dime on it ever again? So, your mining would forever be free? If that is the case, that initial start-up cost could be awesome.

I know a guy who does mining (gpu) in a small shed like stuff but he maxed out, he has like 200 gpu's inside that small shed, did it like that because he had a HUGE fan type of thing that cools it, hence if it is small enough, it would be easier to cool it as well, it’s not a freezer type of cold, but it is quite cold, like you wouldn't be able to live in that cold, it’s quite bad (well good for the machines). So, if he put some solars on top of it as well, that means this dude would get wealthy without spending another dime on it ever again?

This is what a veteran does. We do not care about the price, we do not "ignore" it, we cherish it because we love and know that the price will go up, which means that the lower amount of money you could spend on this, means a lot more money when you are dealing with something else in the future when the price is higher.

I have faced a ton of people who turned a few thousand dollars, or a few tens of thousands of dollars, into retirement money. I know one friend of mine who turned under 20k money he invested in 2017 or so, into 4.4 million dollars these days, well at the peak sorry, because after this drop he must have a lot less money obviously.

Galatasaray have one of their important players in the past as their new manager now. Okan Buruk must not have much problem on adapting to Galatasaray. I don't like to see a team changing their manager very often but maybe they would have a long-term contract this time with Okan Buruk. It is important to wait patiently for even a long time if necessary. For example, Manchester United had great times with Alex Ferguson but in his first times they had really problematic seasons for some time.
I think this problem will not be experienced in Okan bitter, because we believe that we will see a good Galatasaray this season. The results that Okan Buruk gave to the teams he took in the teams he coached are obvious. Now he has returned to his own home, where he will show the same success. I am always against the change of the coach, but even if Okan makes bad mistakes, I think they should be given a chance, needs to be patient here with the fans and the club. This is how success comes.
I am not sure if "success" is the way to go. First of all they are in big big big financial crisis unfortunately, when you spend tens of millions of dollars on useless Romanian players, that is bound to happen and when you get zero success (aside from Barcelona games) then you will end up with no money to recover neither.

So, this year is "just get to champions league or europa again and focus on league" season which means they will not be able to spend much on transfer. Or they will, and take a big risk, and that will result with them needing a big success, like championship at least, and if they fail, it will be even worse for the future.
