When it comes to using Bitcoin as a means of payment, I think there are already many sites that use Bitcoin as a means of payment. For example, site hosting services. But this September, dump month for all crypto. My estimate is that crypto prices will increase again in December.
There are many sites that accept Bitcoin as a mode of payment not just hosting services, there are several goods and services websites as well that accepts Bitcoin and since the fees is not that huge for months we might see more companies accepting Bitcoin.

When it comes to the valuation, we might see the momentum starting to build by October so that we could touch another all time high by the end of December. These are the expectations but anything can happen as the institutional investors hold the key as we have no idea when they will start dumping the coins.

They've stopped the Libra coin and changed it to Diem. The news tells that Facebook is about to integrate it soon with its platform and as well as other platforms that Facebook owns like whatsapp and instagram.
We are hearing about these for a very long time. What change they are expecting with the change in name from Libra or Diem. Libra was having issues with regulators and will the name change make any difference to the issues they faced with the regulators. I am not even following what they are going to do with their plans. It is better to wait for them to launch something and make a comment.
303  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bitcoin, Dogecoin Gain After Musk's Tweets, But Will There Be Another Bull Run? on: September 13, 2021, 09:03:30 PM
Now, Dogecoin has another mean to expose itself to millions of people, without the Elon Musk tweets.

Check out the new sponsorship Dogecoin Replaces Bitcoin As Watford FC Sponsor. It can appear in many matches and on televisions, from live matches, match highlights and so much more.
I have seen Dogecoin sponsoring races earlier and it was a huge surprise for me if it is true that Dogecoin is now sponsoring Watford FC, if i remember one of the cryptocurrency gambling site used to sponsor them right and i have heard about the restrictions imposed on gambling related sponsorship. I am not sure about the current situation but the Dogecoin team is willing to shell out money which is great unlike other projects  Grin.

Scammers are observing and just the same with ICO back then, NFT are now prone to this kind of activities, scammers who know how to play and work with greedy investors.
There are established projects that are producing contents and i never jumped the ship when the hype started, it took a while for me to understand what is going on and i am not a huge fan of collecting art but still it is fun to try a few and purchase them to see what is going on. There are some impressive arts but the cost is so high that i do not want to get them but there are many who are willing to spend money to get their special ones.

For now, the booming of NFT mostly from the gaming side is really gaining attentions, it opens up the door from those people who learned crypto from the influence of their friends who are playing play to earn NFT games.
Gaming is gaining popular but some of the projects that are run on top of ETH is suffering due to higher fees to connect the game and i too wanted to try them but i do not want to spend $30 just to connect the game.
 
305  Economy / Speculation / Re: How far can bitcoin price correction go? on: September 13, 2021, 03:35:28 PM
~
we saw a decline in Bitcoin from two weeks ago to 12% and this decline could result in a price drop of up to $42k. However, this decline will only occur if the support is broken and if the resistance fails, the price will be bullish again. I myself feel the current price decline is only a temporary correction to continue its rise to $55k. Therefore, the decision to buy and sell is in the hands of there.
I thought the market would wake up today but it is still going down, we have a 13.8 % correction and we have a one day correction of around 3% and there is no signs of turnaround and i am curious to see what the support would be and will it ever go down below $42k. I think we will see a correction beyond that and we might not even see a rally this month. Only time will tell but i am expecting the market to close at an high at the end of this year.

Dude, you’ve been here since 2013. You know full well how quickly bitcoin can rise in the peak of a bull market, which is usually Q4 in a bull year. $70,000 is absolutely possible before New Year.
Even during this rally the price started to peak in a short period of time and it can happen in either directions and hence it is not a big surprise. Like you and everyone else in the same wavelength about the general market situation i am also expecting the market to rally to all time high valuation despite the fact i am still scratching my head to warp my brain around golden cross approach and dead cross approach  Cheesy.

Anyone can lose money either old or newbie. There are so many reasons why this usually happen. Losses are inevitable as a trader, but the important message to take Home is not to be pressured to recover lost trades
It depends upon what cryptocurrency you invest, if you are an investors who invest in new projects then the risk of investment is really high because the chances of success are limited and it depends upon the team behind it. If you are talking about Bitcoin or any other established coins in the market then it is a completely different story. Just follow the basics of not selling the coins at a loss and if anyone could follow that trading practices then he will not sell at a loss.

I do believe that if the IPL schedule is next month mid then they might have tried to conduct the match at a later time when everything is clear but in a tight schedule the players might not be willing to extend any further.
It makes sense, the players are there in England for months and now they are traveling for the IPL and the final is conducted on 15th October and the T20 World Cup will start on 17th October and it is yet another month full of cricket matches and the final will takes place on November 14th and it is really taxing for the players as they are playing one tournament after another without much rest and more over they need to be in the bubble for months.

No wonder some of the players are pulling out of the IPL because they are playing the IPL and the T20 World Cup back to back and i wont be surprised if some of the players that are playing now gets injured during the time World Cup starts.

Pretty much that is what I have said but I agree even though Anthony Smith has had a lot of fights in the past I still think that Spann pretty much has the power with his takedown over Smith I really don't want to judge a book by its cover but that is how I am seeing the situation between these two,
Ryan Spann is yet to fight anyone that is legit and when he was faced Johnny Walker he was knocked down in the very first round and his most impressive win is against Misha Cirkunov and fighting against Anthony Smith who is a top fighter in the division and his recent losses are against really tough opponents and you cannot judge him by his losses he had against Glover Teixeira or Aleksandar Rakić. I am betting on Anthony Smith to win the fight.

but in my case, I am still researching and looking at some Ryan Spann fights and looking at his Tatoo Superman on his chest that really indicate fear, maybe not to his opponent but the people watching him fight.
Yeah the tattoos instill fear on the opponent  Cheesy. It just shows he is a little childish to tattoo something that is a fantasy and it will make a smile to your face rather than fear  Tongue.

Sri Lanka don't had any hard hitter batsman and they lost their wickets frequently. After the end of 10th over, I thought Sri Lanka will score above 140 runs. But they just kept losing their wickets. We shouldn't expect much from young and inexperienced players in T20 format. Sri Lankan squad is full with them. It was a easy win for South Africa, they won the match by losing one wicket only.
Sri Lanka is playing with an inexperienced team and i have not seen any potential player that could make an impact, if there is any such talents then the IPL teams would have snatched them but till now we have not seen any youngsters coming from Sri Lanka and their major recruit comes from West Indies Australia and England. The board should do something to build a good team if not they will find it hard to play even against lower ranked team.

Respect? Lol. Bairstow's performance was horrible in the test series while Malan played well and Woakes wasn't even a part of it. This is what matters more than their decision to ignore IPL(Personal reasons or Revenge).
Jonny Bairstow was not in his form during the Test series but he can change that in the shorter format as he is always a dangerous player and can clear the ropes easily. Playing Test and T20 are entirely different, may be he needs to work on his defense and even there he got starts but like many others in the team he could not capitalize on the starts he got.

Also, IPL won't be affected at all by their omissions since there are many great replacements available. For example, Bairstow might not be included in SRH's playing eleven due to his bad form in recent times.
IPL might not be affected but the players will be missing out on experiencing the track well before the World Cup as i assume the IPL and World Cup matches will be played in the same grounds and the players who are in the IPL will be having a through knowledge of the pitch and the atmosphere .
312  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Anderson Silva vs Tito Ortiz on September 11 on: September 12, 2021, 06:53:58 PM
Holyfield is complaining of the premature stoppage but I agree with the referee that the fight should be stopped he is taking a beating and we don't know how will his body react to that kind of beating at that age after the fight, he is slow and his reaction to the punches is not good, DeLa Hoya should think twice of fighting again after the Holyfield outcome, Tyson and Roy Jones are two exceptions of old fighters coming back, they are well trained.
I did not like the fight, i knew Evander Holyfield would struggle as he is coming back to competitive fights after a very long time and he is 58 years old and we cannot expect him to do better. I do not complaint about the stoppage as Evander Holyfield cannot take too much punishment at this age and i would say it is a good stoppage considering his age.

The main event was not a surprise either, Tito is not a boxer and he got what he asked for  Cheesy.
313  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: NFT is an interesting space on: September 11, 2021, 11:59:38 PM
NFTs is a digital representation of artwork tied to a blockchain. Each NFT has own signature that can be verified in the peoples ledger and which cannot be duplicated or edited.🙏🙏
It is not just digital artwork, there is a lot more to it, you can add digital signatures to videos and audios and now there are many projects that started NFT games. So it is much bigger than just art and with due time we will be seeing huge games built on top of blockchain and NFT gaming will be huge in the coming years as there are more projects coming up.
314  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do you want NON KYC coin on: September 11, 2021, 11:35:34 PM
Just interested to hear people's reasoning for wanting NON-KYC bitcoin.  Im guessing its so that one can deny ownership from "the man"
Probably so they don’t have to pay taxes on profits. I know that I would love to avoid paying tax on bitcoin when I sell. I’ve been HODLING many coins for over 7 years, it doesn’t feel fair that I should have to pay 20% tax on profits.
I'm wondering though, how you'll want to cash out millions of dollars, euros, etc. in a couple years without the authorities noticing. It's better to pay 20% taxes than landing in jail or only being able to spend tiny fractions of your holdings at a time to remain 'low profile'..
It is impossible to cash out huge amounts without the authorities knowing. The best option is always pay the taxes and live peacefully as you are not going to get away with it and the pressure of doing these illegally will make anyone weak mentally. You can withdraw small amount within the limit and the authorities will not come chasing but with huge amounts there is no way you can get away.

There are ways but what is the end result if you set up a company in free heavens, the risk is higher and if there is any investigation then you will be caught either way.

If that happens, then all cryptocurrencies die too, not just Bitcoin. If Bitcoin is banned, but other cryptos get permission, then we can exchange Bitcoins for other cryptos, then exchange them to Fiat. But can the government do it? I sure don't. Because the existence of crypto is now a necessity, and a solution in the midst of difficult transactions at the international level. The existence of crypto is not to fight fiat.
You think that Bitcoin will be banned while the rest of the shit coins will be surviving after that . This can be the comedy of the century in the cryptocurrency world because none of these coins will survive without Bitcoin and it is a fact. No sane government will be blocking Bitcoin but you cannot say the same to thousands of other cryptocurrencies.

Suppose some government bans cryptocurrency trading, as long as there are users willing to transfer using P2P the market will be well and alive.

So you are implying that the team batting first will be winning the matches in the series,
Ideally anyone batting first intends to pile on as many runs as they can. Then, when they either declared or are bowled out and are fielding will want to try to prevent the opposition from reaching the score that they have set.
In Test matches it is true if they could pile up big runs they can declare the innings, i am sure even in the shorter format you can declare an innings but no one does that because the opposition can bat the same way and chase the score if the pitch is flat and not helping the bowers.

England players made their decision to pull out of the IPL, i thought everyone would consider the IPL as a training ground to perform well for the upcoming T20 World Cup but Jonny Bairstow, Dawid Malan, Jos Buttler and Chris Woakes has decided not to play the IPL and i am not sure Ben Stokes is having any plans to play the World Cup and hence it is obvious he wont be playing the IPL.

There is no doubt that we will be living like this for the next 5 years or possibly more and what clear cut rule does they make during these circumstances.
We might be living in a bubble for the next 5 years but the only India is having the problem of players or the non player staff getting infected. The IPL was stopped due to players getting infected and now the Indian coaching staff got infected. I am not sure how they are getting infected when they are in the bubble, the ICC needs to investigate those as it is happening frequently.
318  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Stake.com announces Israel Adesanya as their Global branded ambassador on: September 11, 2021, 06:59:07 PM
I love watching Israel Adesanya fight in octagon but UFC is desparate to find someone in middleweight division who can challenge him and they just signed Alex Pereira, man who nocked him out and won two times in kickboxing.

This was back in 2016 and 2017 and Adesanya is on a different level now, he improved his other skills not just kickboxing, and he will want revenge.
I am expecting this to be one of best fights ever in that division and as preparation you can watch their old kickboxing fights on youtube.
The first fight Israel Adesanya and Alex Pereira went to decision and in the rematch Alex Pereira was able to knockout Israel Adesanya with a left hook and Israel Adesanya fought 80 fights in Kickboxing and he is really a high level striker and proved himself there and if they fight in MMA i am betting on Israel Adesanya because he has the experience in MMA and Alex Pereira never faced anyone challenging yet and it will take a long time for him to reach the ranks to fight Israel Adesanya.

ECB has clearly said that the new rescheduled match would be considered as a one-off test and not the part of this series, so ideally India has won this series as of now, but I don't think any sort of felicitation would take place, so accept it or not but the whole series which gave us so many good matches has been wiped off due to the Pandemic, while BCCI claims that Covid is the reason for the postponement, ECB say that BCCI is giving IPL more importance that the bilateral commitments that it has made with ECB, if this remains the scene I won't be surprised if ECB stops its players from going to IPL this time.
So is there a power battle going on between BCCI and the ECB, if so it will be funny to see the end result and how ECB will fair in their decision making because they will loose big if they do not allow England players to play in the IPL. They are gaining strength by allowing their players to play anywhere in the world and if they start restricting players then it will not end up better for the game of cricket.

This is a pandemic situation and they need to negotiate and come up with something because it was a really interesting series and i really would like to see the final Test to see how both of these team performs.

South Africa started the T20 series against Sri Lanka with a win, i did not expect anything difference as it looks like chasing is a huge task in the series and hence the toss is crucial .
So you are implying that the team batting first will be winning the matches in the series, will try placing a bet from next match onwards and will come back to you  Tongue. Sri Lanka is not having a great T20 team and they are inexperienced while South Africa is playing their best team in the T20 format as Quinton de Kock, David Miller, Kagiso Rabada, Aiden Markram and Anrich Nortje are back in the squad.
