We shouldn't expect the price to reach specific point for the year, and our work should be to understand the market and keep ourselves prepared to face the worst. When we follow such strategy we'll be able to profit even if the price didn't bump high in value. Around $26k the price is creating resistance which could lead towards decline or the same could push the market. We should learn to move along with the market than fixing targets.

Very few have the positive mind whereas the majority doesn't have any positive thoughts and they simply term bitcoin as scam and a manipulated one. They never understand better about bitcoin, it takes lots and lots of time. Just on requesting the people nothing gonna change. OP should continue to ask the same question with different people on various professions and if we see more than 30% ready to accept bitcoin payments then we're good with the spread on bitcoin.

Both Lehecka and Korda are getting back into form in this tournament. We will see someone in the final from them the only thing that is worrying for them if they are gonna be ready for Us open next week . I think Korda can reach the final and maybe even win the entire tournament.

The next match would have been between Lehecka and Korda. Unfortunately, Korda had to cancel it because he got an ankle injury in the quarterfinal against Gaquet. So Lehecka is in the final and will play against Coric or Baez.
Hopefully Korda will be fit again for the US Open. It would be a shame otherwise, because as you wrote, he is slowly getting back into form.

I have seen this happening with a lot of players. The players are definitely in some kind of trouble when they face any kind of injury.  And it is definitely a big problem for them. They are just starting to get into form. A player can definitely lose his good form because of injuries. But this is definitely a good news for Lehecka. He is getting a free win because of this. It is still not decided who he is going to face in the finals. But he is definitely going to take the free win.
The walkover from Korda have confirmed the win of Lehecka into the finals. The second semi final is the only match left in the ATP Winston -Salem. Coric is termed to be the favourite against the player Baez, and this is going to be the first encounter between the two players. For the finals it is going to be Coric, lets wait for the end result and sometimes match will be a fighting than one sided.

In the CPL the match between Guyana Amazon Warriors and St.Kitts & Nevis Patriots game is going on with SKN Patriots winning the toss and decided to bowl.
St Kitts and Nevis Patriots vs Guyana Amazon Warriors, 8th Match, Guyana Amazon Warriors scored 197 runs in the first innings. Guyana Amazon Warriors lost their 7 wickets to a good score and may have scored enough runs for them to win today. Guyana Amazon Warriors may not win today's match because of their amazing bowling performance which made Nevis Patriots lose almost all their wickets. Nevis Patriots lost 9 wickets so it can be said that there is no chance for them to win today's match. There is still a long way to go.
Guyana Amazon Warriors won by 65 runs. After winning the toss SKN Patriots decided to bowl first that is not a good decision. Guyana Amazon Warriors set a big target of 198 runs in loss of 7 wickets in 20 Overs. Shai Hope amazing half century of 54 runs in 32 balls and Saim Ayub 31 runs inning in 17 balls helped Guyana Amazon Warriors to reach 197 runs. While chasing down the target SKN Patriots all out in 132 runs in 16.5 Overs. GAW won this match by 65 runs a huge victory. Gudakesh Motie is the player of the match who picks 4 wickets by just giving 29 runs in 4 Overs very impressive bowling performance.
After winning the toss, they decided to bowl but they could not succeed. They could not stop the opponent Guyana Amazon Warriors in any way. Their bowling failure saw the opposition set a big target of 197 runs. St Kitts and Nevis Patriots played for that target and lost all wickets for just 132 runs. The unlucky St Kitts and Nevis Patriots team had only two batsmen who scored well but rest of them failed. The team could not perform the way it needed to play for a big target.
Big score from Guyana Amazon Warriors and if we look at the scorecard it is evident that the contribution have come from most of the players. The solid performance from Guyana Amazon Warriors is the scoring of 52 runs by Shai Hope. For SKN Patriots it was Evin Lewis who scored 42 runs and Ambati Rayudu scoring 32 runs, rest of the players were with single digit score. Tomorrow the match is between St Lucia Kings and Trinbago Knight Riders which is the franchise owned by the IPL team KKR which could attract supporters from India.
365  Economy / Economics / Re: Gold , Silver Or Crypto? on: August 24, 2023, 11:59:35 PM
We have different goals in investing or holding assets, and of the options OP mentioned, I think they are good assets to hold. Before bitcoin, I was also more focused on buying gold, but after I found out about bitcoin, I started to be interested and now I am more focused on bitcoin (by not ruling out gold).
Bitcoin continues to experience rapid growth, and from there I see opportunities that are a pity to miss.

For the views of many people, especially parents in my neighborhood, it can be said that gold is still the prima donna among them, yes it happens because in my neighborhood there are still many who do not know bitcoin.

Every one had their own opinion in the way of holding their assets.Because they had earned this money and have a potential to make their asset based on their opinion.At the ancient time,the gold was preferred one by the people and later to hold lesser shares they used Silver.Now after the invention of crypto currency,most of the people ready to hold in crypto currency.The main reason for holding in crypto currency is the profit time period for crypto currency will be low as compared to gold and silver.

Exactly! it's absolutely just self preference and their belief of which one has more value not just today but n te future. For some, they belive that crypto will be gone in the future. Those are the once who invest in gold and silver instead. For other, bitcoin is the future, so they even use their savings just to accumulate cryptocurrency. Is there anything wrng with that? None.

The most important is both parties are trying to wants to make generatinal wealth by investing in an asset that they believe in.
Yes, it all depends on their past experience. Some could've experienced good profit out of gold and some were taught mentioning gold s the safe haven. Thats the traditional following and now the preference among the young generations were to have diversified investment. Most of them does it and the importance can be seen on the volume. Some prefer to have bitcoin in higher volume against gold and silver. Some take decision in the opposite way based on what they've understood about technology.

Cerundolo now plays top seed Coric who is the favourite at 1.23 and Cerundolo is unseeded,
could be a big ask for him today.

Korda has already beaten Gasquet to go to the semi final, he is seeded number 3.

Lehecka is 1 set up on Purcell and is seeded 5, these 3 top seeded guys are my pics to to through
today, 1 up with Korda.
Along with Korda, Lehecka have confirmed the position on semifinals as he had won the match against Purcell on direct sets 77-64 6-4.
The match between Coric and Cerundolo is scheduled to start within few minutes and I'm not sure about the winner, though the winning odds were in favour of Coric.

3-4 different T20 franchise leagues are ongoing now and I am not following any of them except the 100 and the Caribbean Premier League. Match between Birmingham Phoenix (Men) and London Spirit (Men) is going on in 100, and Birmingham seems to be in a strong position with a score of 98/2 after 60 balls. Jamie Smith got out after scoring 52, while Ben Duckett is still there with 41. Tim Southee has been economical for the London Spirit, while most of the others have gone for plenty. Now Moeen Ali has come out to give company to Duckett. 

In the Birmingham Phoenix (Men) vs London Spirit (Men)match LS-M have won the match by 77 runs. BP-M have scored 185/5 with the higher contribution from Jamie Smith and Duckett scoring 52 & 47 runs. For LS-M Daryl Mitchell have scored 57 runs and they were able to score just 108 runs facing 89 balls. Adam Milne have got a four wicket haul.

In the CPL the match between Guyana Amazon Warriors and St.Kitts & Nevis Patriots game is going on with SKN Patriots winning the toss and decided to bowl.

I don't have much of technical knowledge, but myself being part of bitcoin and cryptocurrency usage keeps me a pride, because very small percentage of the population is using it. Next thing it had given me a learning about life, because I've earned as well as lost big in bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies through my activities. So, everything is just an opportunity and well used and learnt will survive whereas the rest will experience bad moments.

So its the US Open next week and there doesnt seem to be any top players in action this week
and the only tournament I can see in operation is Winston Salem which is an ATP250 event.

From what I can make out the best known players I can aee still in it are:

Nakashima v Gasquet - currently playing
Korda has beaten Fucsovics and is into the quarter finals
Cerundolo plays Kumar later
Lehecka plays Koepfer later
Coric plays Mmoh later

I think it will only start getting interesting at the quarter finals.


In the match between Cerundolo and kumar the lead is with Cerundolo winning the first set 7-5.
Lehecka and Koepfer is hard fighting as both have won each set and the match is into the deciding set and there is chance for tie breaker.
Coric leads winning the first set 6-4 and the possible chance of win is for Coric.
370  Economy / Economics / Re: Elon Musk and the fall of Twitter on: August 22, 2023, 11:25:55 PM
I also believe that by taking over Twitter he knows that the prospects that will be obtained are very large, a strange thing as an entrepreneur would buy something with the aim of wanting to lose and it would be impossible for the famous Elon Musk to do it with very detailed calculations.
actually the way he's been doing it so far by continuing to make changes on Twitter, is a way to provide opportunities for many pros and cons to continue to talk about, this is a very effective and cheap advertisement that can be done so that Twitter becomes trending,
agree, elon musk is smart and visionary [expansive insight into the future], he is able to make whatever he wants to do famous and generate profits to continue to make him rich.
I think it's a little early to admit this since Musk's projects are still under construction and we don't know what results his strange choices will lead to. These options have become somewhat strange, especially with regard to everything related to Twitter, since he began using it to publish tweets in support of the Dodge currency.
The SpaceX project is still unable to reap profits, and this may happen after the year 2030 during the next decade, which is of course not certain.
The Tesla project suffers from increasing technical problems, the most important of which is the battery production crisis, which could cause the cessation of car production if China decides to change its policy in this market, which it controls globally.
I don't know any of the projects that Elon Musk is running that are currently profitable.
Elon Musk struggling to reap profits out of his projects were getting delayed. At some point his thoughts will come true. His thoughts were different from the common man, not as a billionaire but from his early days of life. In every project there is some issue and he had been making use of available resources to make it successful. Now his involvement into Twitter is the reason for the downturn. Once after acquiring he could've left it to function for few years, in between he could've made changes.
371  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tennis League All Thread on: August 22, 2023, 11:20:23 PM
That final was very very close, the last two sets went both to tie breaks, looking at the
stats below shows how close it was + & - for both players in different aspects of their games.
I wouldnt say Djokovic was overwhelmingly better than Alcaraz.

No, I would not say that either and that is not what I meant. Djokovic had a bit more power in the end and all the mental strength to want to win this match. Otherwise they would have played longer. I am definitely looking forward to the next matches when they play against each other.
I was just watching the points as I wasn't able to stream the match. It was really interesting to watch the points coming between the two players. Particularly the break points, one leads and all the sudden the other levels the point. Last two sets went in such a way. I wasn't able to see how those two were mentally. Djokovic could've kept himself with better mental strength, if not he couldn't have won the match. These days the matches between these two were of much expectation after the Wimbledon Final.
372  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do star players affect the odds of a match bet? on: August 22, 2023, 11:06:12 PM
Not every game have this, in very specific games like basketball, football we can experience the difference in odds for a team when a star player is added to the squad as well as when he isn't in the squad. This is common, because the team winning is much connected with the players, and the predictions will also be based on them. Always they carry the expectation of the audience. Whether it gets fulfilled or not is the end result.
373  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: August 22, 2023, 10:50:05 PM
I was very disappointed to see the batting start of the Pakistan team. I thought maybe Pakistan team will fail to show anything good against Afghanistan today. But Imamul Haque's batting performance changed all my thoughts.  More than batting, Pakistan team has performed well on the bowling site. In the attack of the strong bowlers of the Pakistan team. Afghanistan team lost all wickets after collecting 59 runs in 19.2 overs, the players of Afghanistan team were forced to leave the field. Pakistan cricket team won the first match of the ODI series against Afghanistan cricket team by a huge margin.
Pakistan struggled to score good runs, it was Imam-ul-Haq, Iftikhar Ahmed and Shadab Khan that helped Pakistan team make a decent target. Further it was Harish Rauf who stole the show with his five wicket haul.Shaheen Afridi was good enough to take two wickets. Looking the score Afghanistan could've thought this to be a winning match for them, and they never thought of such a worst performance will happen against the best bowlers.
374  Economy / Speculation / Re: How passionate are you buying Bitcoin now? on: August 21, 2023, 03:13:36 PM
The excitement of having bitcoin will be felt for the first time. Further everything is profit dependent, and the excitement happens when you were able to buy good amount of bitcoin at a decreased price. Being passionate about bitcoin can be seen with users who really strive for the widespread and the adoption of bitcoin. To me El Salvador President Nayib Bukele is the person who is more passionate about bitcoin and takes every action to support the growth of bitcoin. Op have elaborated the happiness he had on holding bitcoin.
375  Economy / Economics / Re: How to avoid over expenses and have discipline on: August 21, 2023, 01:19:03 PM
  • Always maintain a checklist, so that requirement gets fulfilled with ease.
  • Don't rush to buy a product. Wait for a week and find whether the product is a must thing.
  • Always find a good marketplace where you can buy used products at a better price and best condition.
  • Don't stick for brand, better to go with quality products from local manufacturers.
  • Avoid miscellaneous spending, because those spending doesn't make anything and when calculated for a month it'll be huge

In my country we've got cockfight and it isn't illegal. Above are the cock owned by my friend. These fights takes place on different states, and people bet on these cocks. Different categories were there, amongst were the usage of knife. Small knife is attached to the legs and the cocks keeps cutting the opponent. Other categories were direct fight over the other. However there is no online platform available for betting on cockfight. So, for cryptocurrency acceptance it'll take much longer time.
377  Economy / Economics / Re: Economic Crash may take bitcoin to 1M dollar on: August 21, 2023, 12:41:03 PM
I'm not sure about it. To me anything beyond certain limit gonna bust or go valueless. Economic crash is common and this gets experienced on a cyclic basis. The recession will be experienced on different industries, the impact will be felt much when the same affect the essential services. This is where people struggle to survive, for now the inflation on food is much globally. The production were affected and we can't expect the economy to depend much upon bitcoin. People would come up with different resources and state the price reaching new high. How far this takes place in reality depends upon the adoption of bitcoin happening around the world.
378  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is it worth it to teach older people about bitcoin technology? on: August 21, 2023, 10:48:07 AM
Based on the survey taken among the older people(50+ years of age), 25% have shown interest upon the young generations investment choice. Bitcoin is on the list and they are much concerned to have it on their early retirement plans. This is not based on the entire old generation, the data is based on people from the western nation. There is interest among the older people and wherever it is possible we need to find the interested person's and teach them what we know about bitcoin. Someday what we taught could help in contributing to bitcoin investment.

UAE need 45 runs from last two overs. They lost 4 wickets. I wouldn't say that UAE played badly today. But they will fail to win today's match. It is not possible for UAE players to collect 45 runs in 2 overs. However, UAE would lose the series 2-1. However, the performance of the UAE players was excellent. They played very well. Their performance has improved. Now the UAE team has now proved that they are capable of defeating a big team like New Zealand. However, New Zealand should have dominated and won the series. But they were not able to dominate even in a single match. Not sure if they can do well in the upcoming ODI World Cup.
New Zealand won the match by 32 runs and with this the series is won by New Zealand 2-1. Lack of experience was seen with the UAE players. Anyhow the UAE team winning a match in the series is a big achievement for now. Players should practice to be on the crease to stand wickets and then go for big shots than going for big shots from the beginning. Team performance have increased and New Zealand will correct itself. In all the three matches played against New Zealand toss is won by UAE and they choose to bowl in all the three matches.
New Zealand must be congratulated for winning the series. But I think in the last match of the t-20 series, if UAE had batted first, it might have been better for UAE. United Arab Emirates could not strengthen the bowling lineup in this last match. Poor bowling by UAE helped New Zealand score a decent total. In terms of United Arab Emirates batting, no one could play well except Aayan Khan
In all the three matches UAE won the toss and decided to bowl. Maybe they could've tried a different strategy in one of the match. I think UAE team is more confident with their batting line-up, which is why they choose to bowl first and chase the target. The target in every match was not that big. If few players had contributed surely UAE could've won the series. Anyhow there is improvement with the team, lack of experience can be seen much on UAE. The matches played against New Zealand could've given the entire UAE team big experience and the confidence to play against leading teams.
380  Economy / Speculation / Re: what a surprise dip on: August 20, 2023, 11:46:01 PM
I don't even know why there is whole lot of thread created about this dip experienced as we all know what Bitcoin is , and that it's a volatile currency and these sudden drop and dip are all part of it's nature so for me instead of people whining and complaining why not just use this as an opportunity to grow and currently more BTC seeing that if you buy now the ratio of amount that will be bought is going to be big
Well said, market crash and price decline is part of the bitcoin price movement. We could experience this kind of unexpected market volatility in large scale, and whenever such thing happens automatically people start to connect some incident happening around the cryptomarket. Maybe this can be a coincidence, and later the same into speculation leads to downturn and uplifting of the price. For now it is time to buy through Dollar Cost Average technique to have better holding of bitcoin for the bigger profit as the market could turn completely bullish anytime.
