3021  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?

3023  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.
3024  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.
3025  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.

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.
3029  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.
3031  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Turkish Super League 2022/23 Season on: June 27, 2022, 09:21:30 PM
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.

In simple words you mean to say money is more important for a player over his country. If IPL allows Pakistan player now, they will leave their countries game to play for IPL. The problem here is that India will not allow Pakistani players till this ruling party is defeated in election.

Now, PCB can scream but ICC will not hear it unless there are other big boards. Which will never happen unless they generate huge revenue.  Therefore IPL will win but bilateral matches will lose somewhat similar to EPL.
Surely this is poor mindset from Indian fans that they can do everything with their money because if ICC will favor things like this then surely we are going to have some big tactical things in coming days and this can ruin this game cricket even BCCI is big and now IPL is having big profit for all B-3 but still they need to care about all boards and their concerns which are better for game and better future of this game.

And every time you are crying about Pakistani players are no in IPL it has never been issue because we all know hate and things going in India so in current situation no Pakistani player like to play in India for money even they are giving huge amount, so please stop this and just try to talk some positive things because every time crying about one thing is never been suitable that Pakistani's are not allowed, so they are doing these things in first IPL Pakistani's were completely on lead so after this we were aware about this now they will never allow them because rightwing Hindu parties never like this again.

^Nice one Trofo, extremely dry for me as well. Even the bets I'm placing are out of reluctance. I am doing either a Wimbledon or World Cup outright every day to get my daily boosts though Wink

I know it's money tied up for WC but oh well.

Your acca looks nice. I'm following that, even though no idea what that last leg is (esports I guess). Obviously with my own pick from J-league to complete the 5 legs (live bet on draw with the Kashima Antlers game, which just hit so I'm also on one leg done).

Only difference is you're playing for a car in my country, I'm playing for pizza dinner for 5 where I live now heh heh.


Yeah I agree, I am not wagering 10% of what I used to wager during the season, it is just a very boring summer for sure. On top of that we won't even have the world cup during the summer, so it is going to be pretty low wagering for me for the next few months.

However, that allows me to go crazy during the early days of the season, when it is still summer (since most leagues start on late august) and by the time November or so comes, I start to settle down and wager a bit less. It is definitely a good idea to just wait for it to come to you instead of chasing to find a bet, when the time comes, the bets will find you and they will be out there wagered by millions all around the world.

Any of you guys placed any bets for the BTC/ ETH price prediction this time ?
I found ETH price betting to be more rewarding this time since the odds are better for ETH than BTC.
Below are my bets and I think I might win something this time.


I have to say when you are wagering on such a big scale, from under 1k to 1.5k, that is pretty much everything covered, sure it could still go above 1.5k, there is no guarantee that it won't, but that would be a low chance. I do not know your own odds (since it changes) but I think there could be a chance you could lose money even when you win something.

At the end of the day, that is all this is about, kind of like slots, where you either win and profit, or you try to minimize the loss. You may spend 3k satoshi, and make 2k satoshi back as the worst case, or you could make over 3k+ satoshi profit, hence not lose all of it, but still have a chance to profit a bit.

With this format ODI could be died, and we will be able to have only these two formats which are good enough for staying in good shape Test matches and T-10 hopefully someone will give his own comments about this as well.
I am really happy to see T 10 as an entertainer as all the bowlers are taken for granted and the batsman keeps swinging the bat but i do not think that all the major teams will be taking on that. T20 is the best format for everyone who do not have time to enjoy the match, i do not want to see matches getting shorter and International teams playing that as it will be really hard to predict any matches.
If with the consultation of both teams they settle for T-10 then surely it's going to be amazing because they already lost time and this could be more entertainment for viewers around the globe. Still we have some good bowling and batting from both teams, I was expecting less than 100 runs, but they manage in good way and have good target of 109.

Indian young firepower after having very good time in IPL still in good touch, and they achieve their target in less than ten overs which is good for them and this will give them good confidence for their rest of tour as they are also going to face English team which just thrash Netherlands and now waiting for tough challenge from this Indian young side.
3036  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: June 26, 2022, 06:58:22 PM
I have not yet seen any rumors that Cristiano Ronaldo is interested in going to Bayern Munich. He joined Manchester United last season. It doesn't seem credible to me that he will leave United this season. However, if Ronaldo comes to Bayern Munich, I don't think he will be able to get along well with Lewandowski. Lewandowski has long been one of Bayern Munich's most important players. He certainly does not want to lose his position.
Actually this is just an exaggerated issue because even if you look at the statement from Bayern they even say that they have no intention of bringing Ronaldo to the Alianz Arena on the other hand Ronaldo has no plans like him to leave United.
I think this is only an issue that has made it exciting for transfers this season.
In this case there is nothing new we have rumors like these from media houses every year as they want to have some good viewership and these are commercial news for them from end of last season there is nothing talk about Ronaldo that he is going to leave Manchester United for any other club because we all know he has two years contract and now at the age of 37 it's not supportive for him to leave this contact and run for any other club even now this season he is not going to play Champions League but still it's good he has one of best club in the world, and they are respecting his decision for staying here in club for completing his contract.

For me most chances as we are having good changes into team they will qualify for next season and Ronaldo will surely be going to extend his contract for another year or until his retirement.

Well. Welcome to the free market. Bitcoin remains volatile as to this day not because of ordinary people but because there are still so many institutions that are unsure about the technology it brings. The decentralization nature is a big issue especially to many financial institutions because it threatened many of them. Government regulators are divided. And we have to remember that these giant companies are too influential in many government decisions. Domino effect.   
The free market, specially without regulation makes it even the freest market for sure and not having any idea how that would work is not a shocking thing. First of all not all crypto investors have invested in other stuff before, like me, I didn't really invested into anything else before this, I invested into some dollars because it looked stronger compared to my own nations fiat, but that's about it.

Hence, it is quite understandable for many people to sell in fear when it goes down and not understand the concept of volatility. They love it when we went from under 10k price to over 60k price, but they can't comprehend how we moved from 60k+ to under 20k in the following months, it's the same thing.

Bangladesh right now is at no 7 in ICC ODI Mens ranking. They have got lot of ODIs since they got permanent status of Test team. Having said that Bangladesh performance in all three formats is awful. Even Afghanistan and Ireland have improved quite alot in short amount of time. ICC really need to think about giving test status to Afghanistan in place of Bangladesh.
Even Bangladesh is not improving in all formats and having awful results which are bringing some serious talk about their status and quality but still not good idea to replace Afghanistan in place of Bangladesh because they are also not going to have any better results with no home matches available for them which are not going to happen for nearly 15 to 20 years so with this all Bangladesh is better choice, but they need to have better quality for staying in good position and for shut up call which is looking hard with their domestic system is never been ideal, and it's not bringing some good changes in their image.

They need to do some hard decisions if they want to bring better quality and improving results, otherwise they could be down and out like Zimbabwe.

You should not only address  Newbies because even Old timers sometimes forgot this behavior and become panicking after each dumping market , Look how the market move is this sounds like total newbies actions?

the market will not fall this bad if newbie will dump because what they are contributing in our crypto market is just small part compared to old timer and holder

try to keep your coins as long as you believe there is a coming increase but when dumping is in our doorsteps? then best to sell first and consider buying in the following months or year.
It might be true than an old timer can experience to panic sometimes but it's just temporary as they then realize that they are not a newbie anymore to act things that only newbies are supposed to be doing like panic selling instead of panic buying.

There are some that sells intentionally but the main reason why they did that is because they want to use the profit that they get to buy more btc's at a much cheaper cost. That is not bad either but long as they aren't selling at a loss as I think that doesn't make sense anymore but If that is the case then better if they will just hodl their existing coins and only use the money from their own pocket or from other sources.

Those were the days and I've seen one before that no registration is needed and you just send your bet to the given address per user/guest that visits them.

Well, we have to embrace the changes as before the authorities don't look at crypto gambling as a legit thing and it looks like a game to them. Now that money talks and the value and worth of the entire market is huge, they now have to make rules that they'll have to require the casinos for their customers to follow kyc.
Speaking with betting then nothing beats out directbet which the only site that I do really recognized in terms of on chain but excluding into those chain based lotteries and other stuffs that related to it which I don't really see any interesting stuff on it.Majority of platforms now are centralized and regulated which is something not surprising and as a gambler then we don't really have any choice whether we do like it or not.
I think I already heard that site being talk about here. Is the full link called directbet.eu? Haven't tried it yet but can you tell what happened to that site? So many old sites are still alive up until now but maybe there are some changes that have been made like adding license on it and regulating it because we know, crypto and gambling are two of the popular things now and like what livingfree said there are now huge amount of money on these fields.

We need to embrace the change or else quit on it permanently. Chain or onchain but as long as the game is lottery, I also think that was not interesting as other casino games and the chance to win a prize on the lottery is also much harder.
