It is good for the Indian board to include Pakistani players in IPL because it will create more interest in the tournament and the direct benefit will go to the Indians but both countries political conditions doesn't allow this. In my personal opinion i would like to separate sports and politics but that is not the way things work around here which is sad and i do not think there is restriction for any other sports and as long as cricket is used as a political tool you cannot expect India and Pakistan playing each other in a bilateral series nor allowing Pakistan players in the IPL especially when the present government is ruling. I don't see any clear vision of when can we be able to see IPL.
Three months lock down and the number of patients touches 10k per day and the government has no idea where it will end and they cannot shut everything down, they are opening up the market which is funny it is hard to imagine what the future holds financially. When you have bigger shit at hands do we really care about the IPL  . |

Or may be entry in the Olympic is the key? There is a good chance if it get accepted in Olympics then fair amount of European or south american countries would show some interest, followed by North. then may be we can expect more money pumping into the game.
If you look at history you will understand how cricket got interesting and commercial interest took place, cricket players were having really low wages in the early days and then Kerry Packer started a private tournament World Series Cricket and started signing big players and they gave importance to ODI and they started the day night matches we have now and then we had the ODI boom and day night matches by the ICC, the ICC played their game to shut them. Then we all know that the IPL started shutting the ICL which was another private company coming up with a tournament signing big players and BCCI and ICC banned several players who were signed to them and forced them to close their doors and then IPL started and followed everything what ICL did with cheer leaders and all those fancy things and this is recent history. For global acceptance you need to see some kind of similar innovation from private players and for that ICC need to allow to accept them which is not going to happen. |

I don't know what his stakes are but it's not something he owns completely and is more like a partnership. He could have anywhere from 10% to 50% or maybe even more or less. Selling out of the product doesn't mean much though if there's not much supply to begin with. You can't even buy it in the UK yet (apart from Ireland). I thought his whiskey was available in the UK as McGregor is advertising the whiskey all the time even during his fight promotions, i thought McGregor had major stakes in the whiskey business and he is earning money with it on top of the $100 million he earned with the Mayweather fight and i am sure he made some good investment with the money he earned. Conor McGregor owns the Proper 12 business under his Eire Born Spirits company and he is having partners who have stakes in his business and Becle a Mexican company have 49% stake in Eire Born Spirits.
Dana White announced the fight island and it is located in Yas Island Abu Dhabi and he announced the 251 fight card. UFC 251 Kamaru Usman and Gilbert Burns is the main event. Alexander Volkanovski and Max Holloway is the co main event. |

Why not organize IPL in countries declared virus free? NZ and many smaller countries are now virus-free so the players and the required staff can be tested first and then they can organize an event away from India. It's not necessary to organize it in India when the condition is now worse and doesn't seem to improve for months. They are already incurring losses so they need to think of more alternatives. This is only if it's possible and plausible.
If the BCCI is planning to organize IPL, first the New Zealand government needs to approve conducting a global tournament and if that is possible then they can think about conducting the T20 World Cup. The situation with IPL is that all the players are having a contract for the year 2020 to get paid and how the contract are signed if the tournament is cancelled is not known. |

There is too much political involvement needed to conduct a tournament and majority of the time these politicians cannot agree to a simple same logic and with all these constraints involved it is not an easy job for the ICC to determine the best possible solution until every board takes the responsibility on getting the permission from their respective government and then deciding on when the tournament can take place. If the international travel resumes i do not think that we need a special permission form the government, i am not sure about the restrictions imposed in Australia and when they will be opening international flights and i do not think they will be closing everything down infinitely as it will have a huge impact on the economic structure and many companies will go bankrupt if they delay resuming business. If there is a clarity when everything is set to resume then the ICC can resume with the tournament. |

I hope that even though we as daily traders sometimes we lose because of our mistakes when the market price suddenly drops very deep and because we panic and sell some of the altcoins we have that we buy at high prices, or we can't hold it because of that maybe the reason we sell it for daily needs, Unless and until you did not invest in pump and dump shit coins why you want to sell at a loss, if you are aware of the circumstances on how the market will behave, what is the need for panic even if the price goes down  . The primary rule for trading is to trade with funds that you have left for that purpose and not the money that is needed for daily purpose  . but even though we still have some assets left, we have to trade with the remaining capital, and for example we have less money, we can buy bitcoin or altcoin at current prices, but even though it may take a long time to recover from our losses, we must not fall, we must remain optimistic and struggle to re-trade and recover our losses, because anything can happen to the price of crypto, and nothing is impossible for us to be able to recover our losses quickly. Why move away from BTCitcoin when you have the most volatile coin which is a dream for every trader, you do not need any complex algorithm to understand the price movement, invest when the market goes down and wait and you can make a huge profit in the long term. All the trading standards are applicable only for top coins in the market and not for the shit coins . |

If you have 40k WRX coin, you need to hold it until the price increase higher. That will be a lot of money you will get from the coin since you have a big amount of that coin.
BNB and WRX can be the next potential coin which can increase, so I think many people still hold those coins until now. I only hold BNB so far, but I don't have a big amount of BNB, but that is no problem for me.
Initially i never thought it is a big asset as i was having the coins locked in my account for over a year and once they launched that i could see the valuation was pretty good for something you never invested and after binance acquiring the exchange it is possible that it could pump a lot in the future if the business continue to flourish and hence i might be holding a couple of years and see how it goes. ~
Is WRX a coin from an exchange that also works with binance? if true, maybe both coins have character and maybe the same market in the future. BNB will continue to grow when the Binance exchange continues to grow and have the trust of their traders.
Same utility token like BNB, i do not see a long term prospect in all these N number of utility tokens but in this case these are from popular exchanges that have a huge amount of users and it is possible we will see some pump in the coin as a speculative market. |

IMO gold will always be safer in the long run because people have more trust in it. Gold has much less volatility than bitcoi. If you are strictly talking about safety, because of that lower volatility gold is safer. The downside is that its value won't change much in the very long term. Bitcoin is still a young asset and has a lot of potential, it is less safe, but has much higher returns possibilities. It is common knowledge that the timing is very important when you are investing in any asset. Take a look at the price of gold in the past few days, it went down more than we expected. If you are looking at gold as a long term investment then you can apply the same logic with BTCitcoin too, invest whenever you like and wait for the long term and the difference between the two is that you can have an higher profit in a short period than gold. Fundamentally gold is here for centuries and comparing it to BTCitcoin which is the new kid in the financial industry is a bit childish . |

I have been reading the same topic every month or the next about this question,Why can't we move on from what Hype
of 2017 brings us and just be facing the reality of life now? The same questions were asked during 2014 to 2016, only difference was whether the price will cross the all time high valuation of 2013 and this will continue on in the future . market is not going anywhere close to that price this year or even the next year because the effect of Covid19
will continue being a burden of every people in the world. You never know what will happen to the price of BTCitcoin as anything can happen, we might not have the same situation like we used to have in the past but, never say never to BTCitcoin . facing the Virus for your family or finding another way of profiteering aside from Crypto investing and just leave your
investments here for a year or more? No market is safe in a situation like these, we will see the downfall of these in a short period of time and the cryptocurrency market is the only market that you know that it can recover but that cannot be said about other markets as you never know what companies are going to be bankrupt in the upcoming crisis. |

And still...Nunes got her win, not as fast finish as people expected,
but victory was still clear, on points, and she was dominant in this fight.
Dana White said he was praying that fight would be stopped, as he was worried about Felicia Spencer health. I did not expect Felicia Spencer to have a chin like she was able to take all the strikes from Amanda Nunes, the striking and take down of Spencer was not what i expected as Nunes was able to throw her around easily and stuff all her take down and reversed some of her attempts. I made a bet for the fight not going the distance but Spencer was able to survive and when she had a huge hematoma in her forehead and the doctors came in i thought they would stop the fight. I wish the fight that fight took place in New York as they would have stopped that fight seeing that hematoma  . |

Good suggestion, BNB already showed its potential and it's already successful, but there's still more room to grow, while wrx which was acquired by Binance, this coin will certainly have a good future as based on the trend, anything that attached to Binance succeed.
If that is the case i will make a good amount of money as i am holding over 40k WRX coins locked in my account in the exchange and they will be releasing the coins every month, sold over 4000 coins when they first unlocked and since Binance acquired the business i will be holding the rest of the coins and see how this will go, either way it is a win win situation for me as i never spent a dime to get those coins . Because Wazrix is still new developed platform only a few months going it’s launched. They trying to add all of reputed coins in their exchange so that exchange volume increasing. If it’s a fully Binance supported so definitely it’s will top ranking exchange in the future. The Wazirx coins were introduced around a couple of years back in the exchange and there was literally no use as you will get those accumulated in your account whenever you trade and since you were not able to do anything for years i never thought anything about it until they unlocked the coin to trade and with the binance acquisition it might pump in the future. |

I think the unanimous decision here is to see Nunes just annilhilate in the first round. You can get in on this from a promotion a site is giving on it to 4 to 1 odds of it going down like this as this thread has scripted it to happen.  Not just on there are two in my view, Nunes is a almost sure shot fight in this card if you take into account the level of competition Felicia Spencer faced in her small career and with the way in which Nunes was able to destroy all her last ten opponents this will be an easy fight unless and until Felicia Spencer is able to get a take down on Amanda Nunes. The other sure shot fight in this card is Sean O'Malley who is getting an easy opponent because of the Corona situation. My other picks are Herbert Burns and Alex Perez. |

^ That's why i am highlighting the "more exposure" issue. Sure ICC doing everything in their capabilities but clearly its not enough and lack of exposure and popularity of the game reflects on cricketer's compensation packages as well. For that to happen cricket needs to be more welcoming club matches, the biggest payment for cricket players comes from IPL and they have restrictions for the maximum amount of money they can spent, football players earn a much bigger pay because of club football and there is no limitation on the amount of money they can spent for every team like they have in the IPL and those players are not earning anywhere near from international matches. Top sports earning comes from individual sports like Boxing, Tennis and then Football players rule the financial charts. |

Yeah the virus is taking its toll on the world economy however opening up now seems to be a bad decision as the cases are growing out of control now even worse now then when it started. Australia is starting to open up just when the winter season is starting so I don't know how this will go and if there is a second wave here then we could say goodbye to the T20 world cup being played this year. Even if there is a second or third wave many government around the world are going liberal about the situation as they cannot shut everything down for a very long time and when you take a close look at the situation in India the situation is getting worse but the government is liberating everything and people are flocking in the streets and there is no other choice for the government rather than opening up everything and the situation is same everywhere as they fear about the next election and if that is the situation what is the point in delaying sport when the rest are opening up. In the USA, many people are rioting currently because of the Floyd issue without following social distancing and this will drive their cases up substantially. In India, the migrant crisis and community transmission is driving the cases up drastically everyday. The worst is about to come, the US is on a different route and things are getting worse in India and US. |

Well. You have a point there. Gambling is banned in China, but it is allowed in Macau. So the Chinese gamblers travel to Macau and gamble there. This prevents valuable tax revenue from getting lost to other countries. On top of that, additional jobs will be created. But doing something like this is impossible in India. Here there is so much bad blood between the political parties and the opposition will burn down half the country, if any such measure is proposed. There is legal gambling in India like Goa where i visited an yacht where gambling takes places and it was legal and that was my first casino experience to see what is going on and it is completely crazy just like Macau and there are many places where illegal casinos are functioning with the help of politicians and police and that is not the situation in India alone but some Asian countries too. It is the same like the legal dance bars in Maharashtra was closed and then the dance bars were run by political affiliated people. ^^ Sad to see only one cricketer made into this list. IMHO It shows that where cricket stands in comparison of other sports and clearly begging for more exposure in other parts of the world too, not just Subcontinent. The issue here is that you cannot compare the earning power of Tennis Golf Football to cricket. Majority of these players in the top earning list have endorsements from different corporate companies and that can be achieved if you are under a good manager who can put together good endorsement deals and the popularity in different countries. |

Nope I don't think so. I mean really? Jones prolly won't stoop that low. As an athlete and a celebrity Jon Jones have seen the worst and anything he does gets scrutinized under a microscope. His recent twitter rant about vacating the title and then going out and forming a task force to secure his neighborhood looked like a PR stunt as everything was published online, may be he had good intention to stop the vandalism in the name of George Floyd and no one in the right sense will mess with Jon Jones. UFC News from today say that Tyron Woodley has been offered and accepted to fight against Colby Covington.
It can be interesting fight to watch, and maybe this can see better edition on Woodley after he lost last fight with Burns. This is the fight i was looking for a long time because of the history and the hate they showed in the past and this will be career defining fight for both Tyron Woodley and Colby Covington, one more loss and Tyron Woodley might retire and a win for Colby Covington could give him another opportunity for the title. The problem here is Colby Covington left his old team and his rant about the billions of Dan Lambert is gone and he is not having much friends to accept him to another big MMA gym and that will be another problem. |

Nope. It dropped to $8600 on BitMEX.
Lets say that BitMex is not even an exchange, contracts and leverage rates cannot be taken as the price of BTCitcoin and they have a 100x leverage and any glitch can take the price down. It is even possible that someone drunk messed up taking a position and we saw a flash crash . |

The price of Bitcoin dropped 14% to $8,600 in less than 15 minutes yesterday, and in a article on cointelegraph three reasons are given: long contracts accounting for the overwhelming majority of the Bitcoin market, BTC reacting to a multiyear resistance at $10,500 and whales dumping. It is completely bullshit as the price of BTCitcoin never went below $9400 let alone reaching these fake valuations. I knew there would be resistance breaching those levels and i have taken my positions and got back at $9500 seeing huge volumes in the buy wall, if the valuation ever went down i would be happy to enter at a lower valuation and that never happened. Think twice before swallowing what these news sites say . are you serious?i have checked exchanges and also coinmarketcap but none of them indicates this said
drop around $8,600. It is a fake article, the price never went below that. Do not trust what they say as most are click baits. |

Self vouching in the merit source application thread. There are users in the past getting demoted from mod position and getting tagged for self vouching. sometimes people cannot express their opinion openly on issues such as religion and politics. He expresses himself more freely with a different account because he is afraid to get a reaction. One account to play the saint and one account to play the evil persona . I have seen users doing that but with a funny twist rather than outright evil . |

-"Opening multi accounts is legal" says in the forum rules. Why is this given negative? Would it be a problem unless it signed the same signature? Negative ratings are given to users who abuse the forum with vouching with your alt account and joining signature campaigns with multiple accounts. If you are not joining the same campaign with your alt then no one will red paint your account. -The purpose of the multi account is: "expressing yourself more comfortably". How can I express myself more easily if I say "this account is mine"?
Since majority of the users are using an alias what is stopping you from expressing yourself. |
