3121  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Recently launched Trump NFTs used images from small clothing brands on: December 19, 2022, 08:33:58 PM
The clothes models from the shops are identical to the ones on Trump's NFTs, but with so many brands nowadays selling the same clothes models, isn't that normal he would wear clothes from one brand or another? I see no issues on this. After all, he has to wear something on his NFTs...

The worst part of the story is there are people willing to pay 99$ to own those useless cards. I think it couldn't even be considered an investment.

That was just a joke, because it's not possible to put such proposal on practice. USA wouldn't accept Twitter accessible on their country if a man who is wanted by them is the CEO of the company. Probably allied nations would follow USA's lead on this matter, also forbidding Twitter right after. So, besides the currently financial issue Twitter is facing, they would have another one, besides worsening the financial status more yet.

That was a terrific match between Argentina and France. Both teams played really good and hence was the score of 3 - 3.
Argentina as a team played well but on the other side Mbappe was a clear scorer with his 3 goals.
But I guess France need to focus more on their delivery towards their goals and not leave all of it on Mbappe.
Still France was able to make it to penalty which is again amazing. I won my bet on Argentina and I am really happy for Messi.
France has to focus in training penalties. I think it's unacceptable for a professional level of soccer to have a player totally missing the shoot like Tchouameni did. He simply shooted outside the goal area. It reminded me the match between Brazil and Croatia where Brazil also didn't know how to shoot penalties precisely. On this matter Argentina had much more cold blood to decide the result.

I personally am glad that the world is finally seeing Elon Musk for the person he truly is and not for the person whom he's not.  Elon has never invented anything of my knowledge and for all intents and purposes seems to run business pretty poorly.  He's mostly made it money around hype and smart business savvy (being a great bullshitter).  I don't see Twitter working much better than any of his other companies as he seems like a toxic asset and one that's coming from the very top.  I would have left twitter too if I were them.
Has anyone checked the poll Musk has uploaded. He has asked people to vote should he step down as a twitter head and many yes.
With more than 17 million votes casted - 57.5% people said he should go.
User voted to remove Must as head of plarfrom
Maybe he is just measuring his popularity on the platform, so he can start planning his next steps based of the currently view people have on him. The ambition of this guy has no limits and I have a very negative intuition regards him. He could step down as twitter head, but it doesn't mean he is going to stop ruling twitter in anyways. It's easy to put a sockpuppet on the front while controlling everything from the backgrounds. Actually, it's a very common practice in many companies and governments around the world.

yes but in the end argentina won this year's world cup even though it's fake news even if france team played with full squad team it wouldn't be possible to win consecutive world cups i was sure this year's world cup was for argentina and they proved it though on penalties, but France almost won at the end of extra time free play in the penalty box unfortunately broken by the argentinian defender, but whatever it is congrats for the win argentina and at least I won the bet there  Wink
Why wouldn't it be possible for France to win a consecutive World Cup? They almost did it, anyway. It was a hard game for Argentina after all, as France almost reverted the score at their favour before the end of extra time. All scenarios were possible for this match and even sportsbooks were uncertain regards the favorite team. It ended that Argentina started playing better, because they put more energy on the beginning of the game, but on the second time it was France which had more energy left to dominate the field. Both coaches managed well the stamina of their players, harvesting good results for their respective teams and keeping the game unpredictable till the last minutes.

It was an amazing world championship, very funny and full of surprises
I'm very happy that Argentina won, and Lionel Messi (he deserves it)
and also great credit to France who fought to the end like a true warrior!
more precisely tense when argentina won 2 goals then mbappe scored 2 goals to draw the score, then in extra time when argentina came back ahead then france got a penalty prize and mbappe was able to execute it well and finally they had a penalty shootout, but i believe this year's world cup this belongs to argentina and france will not get its world cup in a row, congrats to argentina
Argentina started the game better than France, so they could go ahead. But France came back in the second half and equalized in record time, and both goals were scored by Kylian Mbappe who has been outstanding at the World Cup. Actually many opportunities were created from each country, but their two goalkeepers performed very well apart from the 3 goals that were created against them. It's a much anticipated final.
Yes, both goal keepers played very well during the whole game, although the french one isn't good grabbing penalties. Some fans even suggested the coach Deschamps should have replaced him on penalties, but the advise was ignored. Then we saw the difference between the skills of the argentinian and the french goal keepers on the decisive stage of the match.

Something like this will only exist in small communities of gamers who enjoy playing PVP games. There isn't a vast public to make large bets on these games' results. You have to search for championships of the games you are looking for, so you can ask the organizers if bets are allowed and how you can can place a bet. If there isn't this option available, you can give them the idea and hope that it will be introduced at some point futurely.

I'm still in doubt about Messi or Mbappe...
...
Honestly, if I were to choose someone today, I would choose Messi as a bet for the best in the world.

It was a very sad night indeed for Mbappe. He seemed very upset at the awards ceremony. Tonight he almost resisted alone, but by the end of the night he couldn't reach the trophy. He became the top scorer of the tournament and won the golden shoe. At least that was a consolation prize for him. I like Mbappe's playing style more, but Messi is an undisputed legend. He also completed the biggest missing piece of his career today. With this trophy, he deserved to be the immortal legend of Argentina.
I saw the big disappointing look on his face because he never believed that the outcome of the mat h would not favour him. It was a big disappointment for every fan of the France team and supporters because the game was very interesting at the starting with knowing what is going to be the result of the match.

The match is over and It is very unfortunate that Mbappe did not go home with the world cup just like last time. Could I say Argentina was very lucky to have won the world cup. I thought France is going to go home with the cup but the outcome is just confusing but I have nothing to do now that to accept the defeat.
Well, he shouldn't feel so sad. Mbappe's France has already won the last World Cup in Russia 2018. He is a pretty young 23 years old player who is going to play another 4 or 5 Cups yet. Plus, he was the best player of the competition, who scored more goals and is going to enter soccer history hall as the most skilled player of the world, more than Messi and possibly more than Pele.

On the other hand, it was the last chance for Messi to win the Cup. It seems fair he finally achieved what he has been waiting for his entire life on his last opportunity. Sometimes we have to put ourselves in others' shoes and fell happy for the achievements of our friends.

congratulations argentina for winning the world cup, as a fan i admit that this was a game that made me extremely irritated with the argentina coach, we were already winning by 2 - 0 and we were playing very well, until the argentina coach argentina decided to replace Di Maria, making the argentina's attack non-existent and this opened space for france to start attacking argentina a lot to the point of scoring 2 goals in a few minutes

after that i even wanted to stop watching the game, because argentina wasn't even playing well anymore, it was just frank who was wasting opportunities, until the argentina coach put in Lautaro Martínez who made argentina play well again and With that, they scored the third goal, but unfortunately Franca scored the third goal again and the game went to penalties, and something interesting is that the coach of Argentina did not put Paulo Dybala to play in this world cup, but he was forced to put Paulo Dybala because I needed someone good to take a penalty
Di Maria couldn't play anymore, he was exhausted. Actually, the whole argentinian team was. They have played too intensively the first time. And the age of players like Di Maria become a heavy burden as the time goes by.
3129  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why every casino got bad habits? on: December 18, 2022, 08:58:30 PM
Accusation against a casino doesn't necessarily mean the casino got bad reputation, if you look at the thread most of them will not be a valid accusation. Yes there can be account on hold, delayed withdrawal, temporary or permanent suspension of the account but casino will have valid reason for doing it and there will not be much accusation if the users abide all the ToS of a casino.
Yes, everyone can be accused of anything by anyone, the point is to show valid proofs of what the casinos are being accused. Every big companies are subjected of being accused of something, because with so many customers, it's expected at least one or another are going to have some issues with the company and maybe the companies involved aren't doing this on purpose. They are ran by humans and humans aren't perfect beings. Mistakes are commited, but the most important is how these services are solving the issues they find themselves involved on. To apologize and give active, integral support to customers until the end is part of the process. To be transparent with the community explaining why those issues are happening is a must in order to keep and maintain their reputation intact.

Take a look at this crypto company called Bitcoin.com, the name itself have a lot to say but instead these people went and create their coin on Ethereum  Grin Grin Grin

Can we say they don't know what they are doing? How can you name your project Bitcoin dot come and create token on Ethereum? I belief that Bitcoin dot come should have make their own bitcoin coin.
Bitcoin.com is a website where you can buy and sell different cryptocurrencies, store your coins in a wallet, trade and also gamble with bitcoin and bitcoin cash. They deal with bitcoin, bitcoin cash, ethereum, USDT, USDC. Maybe I'm missing something, but I can't see their native token built on Ethereum. And they do accept the original bitcoin on their platform, so I'm also not understanding exactly the criticize to the website.
3131  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA 2022 world cup on: December 18, 2022, 07:46:46 PM
moment of pride for Messi to pick up the world cup after wearing the kings gown
What a moment for Messi
It was a good final, so from the 75th minute onwards. Before that it was only Argentina who played well. France's substitutions were top, so Kolo Muani, Camavinga, Thuram and Coman were good changes in the game. Extra time was also great with two goals and the penalty shootout is a coin flip. Mbappe is the player of the match for me with 3 goals + penalty, nothing more is possible. He alone could not win the game.
Argentina repeated the strategy used against Croatia, being super aggressive since the beginning of the game and it has worked, since they were able to open a 2 goals advantage against France on the first time. However, this is a risky strategy on late game, because players get tired and lose energy really fast. That was what proportionated France a chance to nuke Argentina's advantage, turning the score in 2x2 on the second time. Argentinians were really exhausted and couldn't keep the same rhythm of the first time, especially Messi, although he still did the possible to score a third goal during extra time, achieving it.

Argentina took the risks and was nicely rewarded in the end.
3132  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Next generations on bitcoin on: December 16, 2022, 08:23:14 PM
What if 50-100 years from now new generations just fork bitcoin from the beginning to start again because they were not part of the early wealth accumulation? 🤔
It won't be bitcoin anyway. People already attempted doing this and then we have Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin Gold, Bitcoin SV, Bitcoin Diamond, Super Bitcoin... And much more.

In 50-100 years the gap is going to be so massive. Someone born 50 years from now have almost zero chance to own 1 bitcoin while there will be people holding thousands.
Well, better to have 0.0001BTC with Bitcoin pricing 100,000$-200,000$ than owning 1 Bitcoin Something pricing 0,01$.

Does that mean new generations will have the motive to start bitcoin over again and start spreading the same way Facebook did? Starting from college students and get mass adopted later on?
Younger generations should start with bitcoin like the previous ones. The search for an improved bitcoin has already lead many investors into losing money to pump and dump schemes through altcoins. And if they continue thinking like this, younger generations are going to lose more money yet.

Instead of just thinking about the top scorer, which team will win the third title, first or second title, but have any of you thought about the possibility of who will be the best player in this World Cup?

I think about Luka Modric, he looked like he deserved the title in the end. I think he is the best midfielder in the world right now, even at 37 years old he can still really be expected to make an important contribution to the strength of the midfield game. Croatia should be proud to have a player like him.
Modric won as best player in 2018, but he reached the finals on that Cup. Maybe the best player of 2022's World Cup is going to be Messi or Mbappé, because they are the stars reaching the final game and without them I guess it wouldn't be possible for their teams to reach so far. Modric is an excellent and decisive player for Croatia, like Neymar was a decisive player for Brazil on a same match, although I think both of them showed a similar performance, not being able to take their teams to the next level. Therefore there are better candidates for the award.

"I feel very happy to reach the final and end the World Cup journey by playing my last game in the final. The next World Cup is still a few years away and I feel like I can't do it. And ending it in the final, this is the best thing." Messi said to Argentine media Diario Deportivo Ole, quoted by Marca on Wednesday (14/12/2022)
he wants this world cup to be the last for him, and if Argentina manages to become the winner then her achievement is truly extraordinary, we will see him fight really hard in the final later.
in this world cup, Argentina and France have lost 1 time, in my opinion, the achievements made by the two are almost equal, but for the world cup winner this time, my choice leans more towards France than Argentina.
True. Argentina lost to Saudi Arabia and France to Tunisia. Both similar teams which share equal performance. Nothing is decided yet for the last game, but I think if Argentina plays aggressively like they did against Croatia there are serious chances they can start scoring and grabbing the advantage on this final. The game against Croatia has shown Argentina can do it. Let's see how it's going to be the strategy adopted by both teams. It's also possible they play defensively to avoid commiting decisive mistakes. One thing is for sure: Messi is going to play like never before, because this is his final chance!
3135  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What's behind Donald Trump's issuing NFTs ? on: December 16, 2022, 05:08:44 PM
His wife has already launched a NFT campaign years ago on Solana chain. He must be following the same strategy for profits. I suspect these collections are means of laundering money, since there aren't limits on how much a NFT should cost. It can cost 1$ or 1,000,000$, depending the buyer. And no one will say it doesn't worth that price, because everything on this niche is subjective, just like physical art pieces.

You see many influent people creating NFTs and making huge profits by selling them, however, if an average internet user follows the recipe and creates a NFT collection on his own, he won't be able to sell it at all for a single penny...
3136  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Qatar world cup Final Predictions on: December 16, 2022, 04:50:24 PM
The defeat against Saudi Arabia is what has made them rise until now, especially against a country that is not superior, they will definitely feel sick. Talking about fighting France, for sure Argentina will try to achieve this victory and bring the 2022 world cup home. But these two are very even in terms of attack and defense are very good, it is very difficult to predict who will win this edition of the world cup, but I hope that both teams can score goals for each other and can take it to extra time to make the match even more exciting.
The odds are too balanced for Argentina, France and a draw. There isn't exactly a favorite result, although France has a slight superiority by the odds. Nobody knows what can happen and this is really going to be a game of luck for gamblers betting on the World Cup's winner. Each new day sports betting is getting closer and closer to traditional classical casino's games where you have to be lucky to win the prize.

I just hope Argentina wins this one. France has already won the previous Cup and Messi deserves the victory after so many years playing and trying hard. Sometimes playing alone and carrying the team on his back for his nation.
3137  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tipping during live slot, or casino games. on: December 16, 2022, 03:02:08 PM
As I observed in casinos tips are shared by the gamblers with casino's employees when they win decent prizes and feel satisfied with that. These gamblers believe employees around brought good luck and were cheering for them, so they feel the necessity of giving part of their earnings to them. It's a mix of superstition and politeness, etiquette.

The practice also incentivizes employees to give special treatment to customers while at the casino.

In online casinos, on the other hand, everyone active on the casino's chat receive part of the winners' prize through the popular "rain", what is also a tip.
3138  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Better Ways To Manage Energy Consumption For Casino Centers. on: December 15, 2022, 08:45:28 PM
I think from my opinion, the use of solar power will really go a very long way to possibly subsidize the high cost of electricity.
The cost of running on a generator is very expensive over here in my country because of the cost of fuel and the high cost of generator mechanical parts
I also do understand that it also cost much to install solar bit this is one of the best and most efficient way to run a physical casino and why running in solar, always ensure to monitor the usage because most people always abuse this things as much as they're not responsible for the expenses.
Solar energy is an alternative on long term, as the investment is going to take some years until paying itself. A battery must also be included on the investment, since casinos are more active at night, so they have to store energy during the day to use later on.

Anyway, energy costs must be afforded by the casino's profit. I could say to save energy by turning off the machines not being used on the currently moment, but then we would have a pretty dead and decaying casino. The correct is that casinos are shining and joyful environments, full of lights and sounds. And if energy needs to be spent in order to achieve the ideal ambience, that casinos continue spending this way.
3139  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What New And Other Casinos Should Do To Get To The Top And Edge Top Casinos on: December 15, 2022, 07:51:51 PM
New casinos should focus on giveaways and marketing first, massive and continuous marketing will do the wonder and when they gain players they should launch giveaways and should have a dedicated forum representative that will address all concerns, reputation is very important it ranks high on what gamblers are looking for a casino they want to have a peace of mind playing knowing that if they win a big amount they will get their winnings as long as they play within the rules of the casino.
There must be a set for successful casino marketing in the first place. Promotions and bonuses are great advantage, and as a casino, it should stay on top of gaming trends following the latest technology trends to stay competitive all the time. And since problems in casinos are also inevitable, having a reliable ANN thread or even hire a smart representative is a good way to stay on top from other casinos. There will always be best casinos in the end, but becoming on top and staying on its position is the hardest I think.
Expensive fancy marketing should make the difference. Hiring popular and influent celebrities through television and internet ads on the main websites give a considerable edge to the casino being advertised.

If the casino is able to offer at least the same service level and quality his competitors offer, the marketing is going to be the decisive factor. So it must never be neglected by gambling companies.

Moreover, I believe the content of the propaganda have to be very well thought too. One of the most common mistakes I've observed is to treat the gambler (public target) as a retarded or immature person.
3140  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Is Approaching $17000 on: December 15, 2022, 12:08:56 AM
Bitcoin hit $18k yesterday, but I don't think this increase is due to increased buyer demand but simply the positive impact of the announced CPI and the possibility that the Fed will also lower interest rates. This news is the main cause of the price increase this time.
Not only cryptocurrencies, yesterday all financial markets such as forex, and stocks also increased after the CPI was announced. Usually, at the end of the year, people will focus on shopping and spending more than investing, so it is more likely that bitcoin will be sold more than bought.
If interest rates are decreased by regulators, bitcoin will gain more value, without any doubts. The bearish market started when interest rates were increased, so it makes sense bitcoin leaves the currently season and enters a bullish one, once the opposite happens.

Besides that, the only problem are the so many scams involving huge money stolen from investors. It will still take a decent length of time until investors recover their trust in crypto market and its companies.
