No one can predict the price but this project can give you returns in the long term. ATH of Matic was $2.92 and therefore when the Bull market is back you can expect the price to again reach the same amount. At the moment the price of Matic is down by 47% so if you want to invest now then this is the right time.

Surely they have not good time because it's happen after SENA defeats but never mind because now Sri Lanka is coming and after them Australia is also having tour with this all many players will be back in good form at home and give some extraordinary performance because nothing is good then home.

Pujara and Rahane is also going to shine against Sri Lanka and with this performance they are going to have spot against Australia with someone already mention in above post these Senior Players having some good hold on things which are happening in team, so I am feeling there is no good chance for new emerging players for having spot in team but their dedication and love for sport can give them some better result in near future because every thing is going to change.

This is worrying sign for Indian cricket that they are very easily defeated by SA team who was no way a match to Indian team. India defiantly will perform best at there soil since they have ideal conditions there. India really need some backup of there mandatory players like kohli,  Pujara and Rahane. If these players have backup then they will focus on there game which is not the case right now.

The Indian team is going through a very bad phase same result in a different format. I never expected them to lose so easily if they bat well then they will bowl bad and vice versa. 287 was not at all a bad score but the Indian bowlers were not able to take wickets. Malan and De Kock were at their best once again. They both are the reason why South Africa are now leading this series by 2-0.

It has been a year now or maybe more that Ethereum gas fee has bee pretty much higher. The main reason for it is network congestion.

Congestion  means: There are too many transaction happening on Ethereum network which the network is unable to handle. At the moment Ethereum ecosystem is bigger than the blockchain itself. The higher gas fee is beneficial for Blockchains like BSC, matic and solana and this is one of the main reason why they are getting popular.

I came across this post How to lose your Bitcoins with CTRL-C CTRL-V in the forum, Which brought a question to my heart, is it better to use the website to download any wallet or exchange application for Android (as it is a normal thing to use for desktop/laptops) or use the Google play store which is now said to have some applications that hijacks clipboard and changes the address to the hijacker's address and when the transaction has been executed, nothing can be done to cancel the transaction (which is normal)?
First Cryptocurrency Clipboard Hijacker Found on Google Play Store
A cloned MetaMask away from the original is now a victim from the Google play store.
It is said that
Quote
The first attack method the app used was to attempt to steal the private keys and seeds of an Ethereum wallet when a user adds it to the app. When BleepingComputer analyzed the app's APK file, we found that the app contains information that can be used to send this stolen data to a Telegram account.

How can we ignore these kind of hijacking/malware application as it is now a threat to those who mostly uses Android phones?


That is why it is always recommend to store cryptocurrency in a cold wallet for long term hodl. Another important information that has been informed through various post on this board is to avoid Google Play Store and visit wallet website to get the download link. Also always ensure that you are visiting the correct website by checking the url. Always keep your mobile device update and donot install unnecessary apps.

I knew this from the very start, they might say that they have to build consensus or hold discussions but one fine reason for this is Elections also, the government doesn't wants to pass any controversial bill before the upcoming elections obviously.

Yes, that is another reason why they might have postponed the bill as the UP election determines who will rule the centre and the ruling party does not want to take any risk here. They have just delayed it for now and by this year-end, they will pass this bill. I hope they work on the recommendation provided by the exchanges.

Quote
It's not really much of melody I feel, it's already too late for India to not bring any framework around cryptocurrencies, a legal framework for the regulation will make things much more clear for new businesses, also it will give people a lot of confidence about investing too. It's obviously good that they are not deciding for an outright ban, but I think they should legalize it soon so that businesses can actually take advantage of it and can make India their new home.

We are still lucky that the government of India is still thinking about regulation. Look at our neighbours they have banned it without even thinking what they could have been achieved from it. Most of our neighbours are struggling with their economy and some are on the verge of collapsing. If they would have considered or worked out a solution then things would have been different.

In the upcoming budget session of the parliament crypto regulation bill may again get postponed as the government wants to hold more discussion and build a consensus on regulatory frame work. In view of that the Indian crypto exchanges are now setting up self regulatory code of conducts. More details can be found in this article.

For airdrops you can check coinmarketcap.com but the chance of winning is very bleak as there are a lot of participants. You can also visit the child board bounties in this forum for airdrop, here is the direct link - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=238.0

Do your own research before participating in any airdrop or bounties as there can be scam projects listed on that child board.

For ICO and IDO information you again check coinmarketcap and Coinlist they have some good projects listed.

India will definitely try there best to win this series but its SA that is showing exceptional performance in this series. Indians were favorite for this series but the Kohli/BCCI tussle is badly hurting Indian cricket team performance. India don't have good bilateral series record at SA, it was expected India will
change that record this time.

I don't know whether the ongoing dispute between Kohli and BCCI has anything to do with the poor performance of the Indian team. During the last match, it was the bowlers who failed to perform. Captaincy tactics from KL Rahul was not up to the mark, as he refused to provide any opportunity to Venkatesh Iyer to test his medium pace. Shardul Thakur was going at a rate of more than 7 runs per over, and at this point I thought that Venkatesh would have done a better job. Just confirms my view that Shreyas Iyer is a much better captain, when compared to Rahul.

I do not think the ongoing dispute is the reason for India's loss. South Africa really played well in the first ODI. They had lost very quick 3 wickets but an amazing knock by Rassie van der Dussen was the primary reason for India's loss. Another reason is that India's lower middle order also collapsed very quickly. If Thakur hadn't contributed his 50 then India would have lost the match by a big margin.
3251  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcoin wallet on phones on: January 19, 2022, 10:49:04 AM
In 2022 mobile phones are very much secured as they have multiple levels of security features. The only drawback I think with mobile phones are people tend to lose it more often  and like computer devices they can be hacked. A lost phobe won't affect anyone who has created a backup of their Bitcoin wallet. But, a hacked phone can be of concern. Therefore hardware wallet and paper wallet are recommended as they fall under the category of cold storage.
3252  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: January 19, 2022, 10:41:13 AM
India vs South Africa ODI series begins tomorrow; Mark your calendar for placing bets in advance (fixtures). I consider India would be the favorite but South Africa may continue their fight from the morale they got through test series.
South Africa just won the toss and decided to bat first. I guess toss must be too crucial on South Africa pitches as slow down will be possible later on which might be a concern for the teams batting second. After toss, I have placed my bet on South Africa but before that I was in plan to bet on India but the playing eleven line up is not convincing me. Mohamed Siraj is missing this match as well and Shikhar Dhawan is still in India team. Okay, overall, let me see how my luck will work today.

This might be the last chance for Shikhar Dhawan to prove he is worthy of being part of the Indian team. South Africa has already lost 3 wickets not a good start for them in my opinion. After winning the test series South Africa would now aim for the ODI series. K L Rahul would also like to prove  he is worthy being chosen as the captain.

A 1 million shiba inu costs just 28$ so I accept this advice whole heartedly, shiba is meme coin but anything is possible, no one ever thought that doge coin can be this big today so it's worth the adventure
I do not think $28 will be such a huge burden to the pocket. I am sure most of us here can simply invest that amount and forget about it. I know either the $28 will get vanished or it might simply become $280 in the coming days. Last year meme coins gave the highest return and this year they may follow the same pattern again.

West Indies bad days are yet to be over rather they are getting worsen day by day. Ireland is a team that can do upset against test playing team but cant beat it in a bilateral series. This win clearly indicates the level of West Indies team these days. Very soon they have to give up there test playing status.
To their defense, West Indies squad was very inexperienced. The only experienced players were Nicholas Pooran, Kieron Pollard, Roston Chase and Jason Holder. Most of the other players had experience of less than 10 ODIs. But then, the Ireland squad was also quite inexperienced. Their captain couldn't play because of COVID. And the way West Indies batting collapsed in multiple matches, there is no justification. The future of West Indies cricket looks doubtful for me, given their inconsistent and poor performances against weak teams. 
I was shocked to know that ireland won the series againist west indies. I never expected this result.
West indies had some great players in the past like Chris Gayle  but there are no one in the current team who can be a threat to the opposition.

As teams like West Indies, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh are deteriorating, teams like Ireland and Afghanistan are trying to improve themselves. After a while we will not find a team like Bangladesh and West Indies in the top 10 in the rankings.
The main reason for their team's poor position is their lack of foresight on their cricket board. Cricket Borders should always look for talented players for the national team and keep them ready for the team. But the West Indies board could not find a replacement for players like Gayle and Pollard. And so now they are losing the series against the weaker team.
Losing a series to a much weaker team shows how things have got deteriorate for the westindies cricket board. There can be only two possibilities either WI don't have cricketing talents or the board is full of corrupted individual. Three teams in my opinion are performing very bad these days. The first one is WI, second one is BAN and the third one is SL.
3256  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: January 17, 2022, 11:33:11 PM
England lost 5 wickets and still need 170 runs which implies that they are pretty much screwed. Looks like this series will end as 4 - 0.
The England batsman did not disappoint, they were true to their performance and they did not battle like they did in the last Test where they were able to draw and now they surrendered without much fight apart from the first wicket partnership Cheesy.  
It's worst performance from any England side in The Ashes since 1890 but still Joe Root and Coach Silverwood insisting they are not stepping down from their roles because they are feeling it's not their failure it's all the system's failure which is correct but now ECB need to do some quick and tough decisions for having better way for their cricket in near future.

Now, they are going to West Indies where they will play 5 T20 and then 3 test matches most chances here they will do some better as West Indies is also one off worst test sides in current cricket community with many issues on and off the field. But for some better future they need to overhaul their cricketing system which is more than crap now for last few decades.

This test series was a disaster for the English side. Except for a few players like Root and Malan every other player were seen struggling to bat throughout the series. They were not able to chase 271 runs in the last match, then they choose to bowl first after winning the toss. I was hoping that they would be able to draw this last match if not win it but this team has disappointed me.
3257  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: January 16, 2022, 08:16:45 AM
Australia vs England

Is England going to win the last Test match in the end after 3 consecutive defeats and one draw? What do you think?
Australia scored 303 runs in the first innings. But Australia lost 8 wickets for only 141 runs in the second innings. I think they will finish their innings in 10 overs in advance. However, Australia is already ahead by 256 runs. England will not be able to win if Australia gives more than 280 targets. They do have not that ability right now. However, if England can stop Australia by 260, then England can fight to win.
Finally Australia have set a target of 271 runs. If England have scored something around 250 runs in the first innings now this could've been an easy chance to win. During the first session Australia had the highest winning probability. By the second session this has turned towards England. If England is able to create strong early partnership, then it'll increase the chance of winning.
Partnership is the main problem with the English batting side. They have failed to do so in multiple occasions in this series. Although the start looks good they have already scored 50 without losing a single wicket. If the opening pair are able to form a partnership of 150 runs then they have a good chance of winning this match. Malan and Root can come in handy if the pressure is not on them.
3258  Local / India / Re: Is paytm ok with crypto? I get coindcx vouchers for paid bills on: January 16, 2022, 05:06:02 AM
I haven't used it for buying cryptocurrency on any Indian exchange. I have heard a lot about mobikwik wallet as they have a tieup with WazirX. Some of my friends did make purchase on the exchange through the UPI interface of the wallet. The best part was that you do not need to complete wallet KYC to transfer money to wazirx using mobikwik wallet. I remember Paytm does not allows that as you have to complete minimum KYC for transaction that are less than 10k.

I generally check for news about that project. This helps me to determine whether the project is getting hyped or not. If there is a hype then it is better to buy it for a short term gain. Another important thing that I check is the whitepaper and roadmap of the particular project. Always remember risk is very high so the chance of you losing money in such projects is also high. Therefore invest with an amount that you can forget if the project fails.

In start of 2022 we saw some upsets where BAN beating NZ and SA completely destroying India but England wasn't able to break there losing string. On stumps of day 2, 23 wickets have fallen and Australia have lead of 150 runs with 7 wickets in hand. If Australia can give target of around 300 to England then surely final result will be 4-1.
You are making little mistake here. The result of this series will be 4-0 if Australia win the 5th test match. Because, England hasn't won any match in this series yet. They were lucky to make the draw in the 4th test match. England players has shown poor performance in this full series. Betting odds is fully in favour of Australia now. Probably they will win the match.
That draw is still questionable otherwise it would have been 5-0. England's team performance in this series has been pathetic. They have been struggling a lot in batting. The whole team is dependent on the performance of two players. If those two are unable to perform the team will lose. Australia is already leading by 152 runs and I think they will try to reach a target of 300. Anything above 200 is bad for the English side.
