Russians were smart enough to deescalate during Cuban crisis
Americans during Ukraine crisis...not so much
USA seems eager to start war between China and Taiwan too...I guess
they calculated there's no other way out of 31 trillion debt
Nice theory and maybe true for China and Taiwan but it seems they have calculated well the war in Ukraine too and Putin fell to this trap like a stupid fish.He made his army extremely weak after almost 1.5 years war where he is losing everything from personnel to every kind of artillery and machinery.Russian economy is down on its knees and with this move USA did put out of the way Russia as they are not worthy anymore,no one takes them seriously now,they thought to win the war in three days but even with the passing of three years I doubt they will win anything and even in the remote case that they win and get the 4 new areas,it is inevitable that Ukraine will join NATO then and Russia will be completely isolated,Russian have lost their game this time. |

I have some funds earning ETH on Coinbase at 3.72%. That means if you have 1 ETH sitting on Coinbase for a year, you’ll earn something like $6 worth of ETH per month. Not exactly retirement money but there’s also hope that the value of the ETH will increase giving you a gain and raising the amount of monthly interest you receive from staking.
So far I have earned around 4.2 ETH via staking on Coinbase. I started staking in 2021. I plan on starting multiple solo staking with ETH. I am not interested in trading crypto because of the tax nightmare. I'd rather accumulate more ETH slowly via staking and pay taxes on the interest payouts. I personally am bullish about Ethereum and think it will go well above $10,000 eventually. It might even go to $180,000 - per Cathie Wood. Of course, Bitcoin would be at around $1 million or more. The way I see it the Ethereum supply is 6x the Bitcoin supply so it makes sense for Ethereum to eventually settle at 1/6 of the BTC price. A fair value ETH price with BTC at $29,000 is around $4,800. Ethereum is currently undervalued compared to Bitcoin. And we can thank Gary Gensler of course for that. https://ultrasound.money/Judging by that admission and looking at my interest rate proclamation I would assume that you have around 50 ETH staked then. Certainly a great deal of money and more than most here. That likely earns you around $300 a month in more ETH at current prices, which isn’t bad for doing nothing. I for one am glad to see earning expectations is crypto coming back down to reality. Staking 50 ETH and getting 300 dollars monthly,I am pretty sure that amount could be used in a much better way,you can just convert 18 ETH so you don't lose the 32 needed as a minimum for staking,and stake the other coin,for example a good example would be Zilliqa with 15% yearly interest which would be somewhat better than 300 dollars a month.Only by doing a rough calculation,18 ETH is about 1.200.000 Zilliqa and 15% is 180.000 a year which a day would make about 14-15 dollars and near 450 dollars monthly without doing anything.It all depends on imagination when you have that much money at your disposal  . |

Crazy scores this weekend. Barely got any points at all and zero from yesterday. I've more chance of winning the wooden spoon than the yellow cap this season haha. I'm pretty much bottom of the table if you take away the people who have just stopped playing for whatever reasons.
Even the top guys with the yellow cap got very little points for a normal round of Premier League prediction,usually we see from 12.5 and up in normal rounds while here,it was 11 or 10.5 don't remember well now.Just 6 weeks to go plus some games that have been postponed and I see myself in a prize spot,I hope to not go down further than 15th spot as I would love an extra weekly signature payment of 0.005 Bitcoin as a reward for that spot,the prize is good,is double compared to the entry fee but chances are for me to even go up to 6-7 place as a maximum as they are not that far away,it will all depend on these midweek games,can't wait for it,either for the bad either for the good I am happy with my performance so far in the pool this year. |

I wouldn't be sad if Monaco Grand Prix is gone in the calendar. It is like one of the most boring races of a season. You know about how tight the roads are. I don't call it a decent race as long as a race isn't full of overtakes between drivers. But unless there are simple mistakes Monaco Grand Prix will just make you bored after watching it a little. At least it is the affect on me about this.
Azerbaijan Grand Prix is closing in on us. Next Sunday we are going to watch another race in the season finally. This is a really special one at the same time. Verstappen is absolute favourite of course unless he has some kind of problems. But I'd love to see Ferrari having a solid race here finally.
Monaco is a super boring race only when the weather is good,last year if I recall it correctly it was with rain and a lot of things happened that impacted the race and where we saw Perez as the winner.It is boring I agree but is one of the most iconic F1 races and as such it won't be going away soon from the calendar as F1 for me would not be the same without such an iconic race which in some seasons has been a really beautiful one to watch. Finally after almost one month of waiting this weekend we will be back in racing and finally it won't be a boring weekend anymore.It is another street circuit but one long and wide one so overtaking here is really possible and the race promises to be a good one. |

The only advantage gambling with Bitcoin is that you can register with just an email and without KYC up to a certain amount so it is that pseudo privacy up to a certain amount,usually up to 2000 it was but now most of the casinos start asking for KYC as soon as you want to withdraw over 500-1000 dollars,the same amount as Paypal for example let's you use without you verifying your credit/debit card.
All other advantages mentioned here exist also in FIAT casinos but in there though you have to use your debit/credit card or bank account so you already throw privacy away as soon as you start gambling and depositing money there.

I have all the proof of transfers and my identity. Somebody advise me where to go on this forum to open a complaint against them and they are blocked?
If you have proofs ? then why not deliver all of those here mate? as the team now answered your claims and seems that this is a word against word. try to bring it here and lets see what would be the team reaction though Betcoin.AG already clear that you are not complying completely to what they are asking you and all the funds will be given on to you , or will be denied of playing if living in restricted country . I think OP made a mistake by not reading the casino terms and conditions as if he had read them he would know that he could not play from the IP of the region he registered as it was not allowed.Many other casinos offer alternative links for people that live in restricted areas and I think also Betcoin AG would offer such options. They already answered that OP needed to verify location and that he should not have used a VPN connection which in turn triggered the verification which then led to the problems being posted here in this thread. |

Sevilla keeps winning games and they did again tonight against a strong opponent like Villareal,they are well over the relegation zone which just 3-4 weeks before they were near it but since this 1 month they have been playing great football.I knew there were going to be at least 3 goals tonight yet I was scared and I clicked on cash out in my bet below as I thought it won't come true.Sometimes patience pays off but I am not that patient person as I did not have money to play tomorrow so I cashed out the bet.I think that Sevilla now is in a great shape and for the Europa League where they have excelled in winning it more than any other team maybe they are going to win it again this year as chances are there. https://stake.com/sports/home?iid=sport%3A77621584&modal=bet |

They are not only so dumb, they also desperately trying to pass off what they wish for reality. They do not have enough resources, they are trying to increase the production of equipment, as always they multiply quantity at the expense of quality, and in the end they suffer themselves. They are ready to go to the most cruel, most stupid, destructive deeds just to please their leader, who himself does not understand where reality begins and ends. An adequate person cannot understand this supreme stupidity, because in order to understand it, one would have to abandon objective perception and immerse one's life in a myth that has been created for decades and destroys the lives of millions of people, both in their own country and in other countries. That is true.Russia has been immersing themselves in such a bad situation that even if the war ends right now they need a good 20-40 years to go back to the state they were before starting this illegal war.They have committed horrible war crimes which thanks to the technology right now are well documented different from wars that have taken place before like WW2.Their leader is the sole responsible for this failure,he started the war as he did not want NATO near his borders and yet he has added another 1300 km borders to Russia from Finland who joined NATO a couple of months ago.I am not astonished by this though,I know what kind of evil Russian government people are but what I am astonished is that ordinary Russians support their government,that is the sad part of this. |

Social vices have been in our DNA since our very existence,gambling relates to over 4000 thousand years before Christ as first dated and for prostitution they say it is the oldest profession in the world.Then soon after came alcohol and other vices and these are very well present in our time even in our Western developed societies which we cannot do anything to stop people from drinking alcohol,gambling or paying a hooker for sexual pleasures.
For what you are asking though maybe that is in remote areas but in developed countries there are strong constitutions that have produced strong laws,some even in death punishment in certain places like in Texas USA for example which keeps people at bay and obeying the rules.

I searched a bit to find that this miner is being sold on Ali Express and the brand making it was Abdo which says nothing to me,maybe they are good ASIC manufacturers but they can't go and sell their ASIC at a huge price that I saw at Ali Express which was 4000 dollars as they are not a known brand.
If I assume they are a good brand,having that optimized mode at 2 Ghsh at only 850 watt from the wall sounds like a nice miner to mine LTC+DOGE.

You are not alone.I am playing here since early 2014 and I never hit the 200 dollar prize ever,also I never hit the weekly lottery also while having a good decent number of tickets most of the time and some weeks I intentionally have not used all the WoF spins in order to have a smaller number of tickets as supposedly you have more chances by having less tickets and still never got it.
I thought like you in the beginning but people more knowledgeable than me pointed out that usually there are more people with less tickets than few ones with a lot of them and as such from a pool of over 50 million users chances are higher than one of those people with less tickets to be a winner. Luckily though this very week the first prize of the weekly lottery was won by a guy with 231 million tickets which got 0.34 Bitcoin and the amount you need to buy the 231 million is 0.231 but maybe he got them because he wagered a lot and refs of him wagered a lot too,point is I am always happy when someone with a lot of number of tickets wins the lottery. |

Juventus may have had few international successes recently. But in the 90s it was still one of the strongest teams in the world together with Milan. But in the EL a title would also be very welcome. there is a lot of pressure on Juventus, it is also rumbling internally because an investigation into fraud has been made and serious accusations have emerged from that. Nedved is under fire, a price in Europe would make up for it in any case.
I think Juventus is one heavy favorite and the second I would put Bayern Leverkuessen although I would prefer much more a Juventus vs Roma final as that would mean that most likely Juventus would be back at winning an European cup after many years of not doing so. It won't be easy at all though as Sevilla recently is playing really beautiful and effective football on both Europa League and also in La Liga,in this season they were not where they expected to be but lately they are recovering a lot and winning games,this make the game against Juventus really beautiful to watch and I am sure we will see great football when these two teams face each other. |

Nantes destroyed a super beautiful multi parlay ticket with odds of 25 which I would have won as I just bet my last money of the week in this ticket you can find the link below.I thought that Troyes is the weakest team of Ligue 1 and Nantes playing at home would win this game in order to be safe from relegation themselves but no,they screwed up really badly and they were even leading the game.I believe the penalty for Troyes to have changed completely the rhythm of the game,look what beautiful parlay French teams as always ruined for me,I am never betting on them anymore. https://stake.com/sports/home?iid=sport%3A77621693&modal=bet |

It looked like Bayern Leverkussen was on fire on tonight game against Leipzig as they continue their wonderful form both in Bundesliga and in the Europa League where they have progressed to the semi finals.It was not that easy though as Leipzig had 7 shots on target and all of them saved by Bayern goalkeeper which kept a clean sheet in tonight game.
Also Freiburg is on a good run having won comfortably against Schalke today.The only ones going from bad to worse look it is Bayern Munchen after being eliminated from the Champions and going and losing the lead of Bundesliga yesterday against Mainz.Things are getting extremely difficult for them now.

Barcelona did not play well in the last two matches. They failed to score against teams like Girona and Getafe. As a result, both matches ended in goalless draws. But Barcelona got a narrow 1-0 win in today's match. Barcelona dominated the match. They possessed 63% of the ball. But they can't attack too much. Barcelona's attacking players need further improvement if they want to win the title next season. While Barcelona's defense and midfield are very strong, their attack is still quite weak. Lewandowski is not able to perform well enough. Barcelona is in good form despite being forced to draw against Getafe and Girona in their previous two games. But Xavi's plan didn't go as smoothly as expected as Getafe and Girona were able to appear strong in defense to prevent Barcelona from scoring. For today's home match, Barcelona reaped another victory from Atletico Madrid with a score of 1-0. I think Barcelona could have won 2-3 goals if the finishing was good especially Raphinha and Lewandowski. But it didn't matter because in the end Barcelona managed to secure 3 important points at Camp Nou. Barcelona had the motivation to win the game today as a win would secure La Liga definitely as I think being like 11 points ahead the second place and with only 8 games remaining makes me think they have secured it by now in a definitive way. As much as Atletico Madrid put up a good game and had their chances in this game Barcelona was much more pragmatic and kept their coolness while maintaining the result which in the end as I said have made them winners of La Liga for this year. |

After watching this horrendous match for Tottenham I don't give them any chance to finish the season in top four. That performance especially in the first 20 minutes of the match was terrible I mean.
Newcastle were playing like they had a very weak team against them in the match. Of course Tottenham were doing really bad in the recent times but not this much bad in the end. They can't have any explanation for this terrible performance in defense. Kane was the scorer of the only goal as usual and he must have been very angry at his team for this performance here. Newcastle and Manchester United are more deserving teams for top four at the moment. While there is a six-point gap with Tottenham they can both qualify for the Champions League.
Tottenham has been inconsistent during this whole season,one good performance was backed by 2-3 bad performances and this has been the case with them,that is why I am not surprised at all at this result although I must admit no one of us expected Newcastle to score 6 goals against Tottenham as their attack has not been that brilliant during this season while they scored a maximum of 2-3 goals in most of their games. I don't think Tottenham deserves to be in Champions League,they did not show anything during this season there and I think it would be better for them to try their luck in Europa League where teams are somewhat easier to compete against. |

In my opinion, pep Guardiolla will not fail to take revenge in an opp unity he meets Reaal Madrid in this season's UCL. Last season, I will say that Guardiolla and. His boys were dealing with a little inexperienced challenges bit the squad was quite okay to win the title though not as good as this season's. The mindset that Manchester city holds now is very far from that of last season and I believe pep Guardiolla will leave no stone unturn .
Although personally I stick to Real Madrid to win the Champions League. However, I also don't close my eyes that Manchester City is on a positive trend this season. So, because this meeting will be very emotional and based on the stability of the two teams, of course we can prove that in the match later. Madrid, with its experience, was able to control its mentality even though it was filled with several young players, Rodri, Vini, and Camavinga. At least there are senior players who have gone through many Champions League finals such as Kroos, Modric, Benzema, and Carvajal who can motivate and calm anxiety against strong clubs. I think this time it will be different and it won't be that easy for Real Madrid as it was last year.The addition to Haaland to Manchester City clearly has made them a much better team as they eliminated Bayern Munchen that easy and Bayern Munchen had not lost a single game up until the faced Manchester City. Also Real Madrid had an easy opponent like Chelsea as they did not go full power to beat them and we don't know the real power of Real Madrid but for me this time Manchester City is going to qualify and why not have a go to win the Champions League. |

it's incredible how Inter in Serie A is totally different from Inter in the Champions League, I think players whose contracts are about to expire don't want to fight for the shirt since they don't know if they'll still be in Milan next year
I don't feel that is the problem, even if you would not be in the club next season, you still have to fight for the club as long as you still wear their shirt, if you don't you'll be benched for being unprofessional and it will even be so hard for you to find another club. Inter milan are just very inconsistent, they find it too difficult to win games in a row. Juventus' 15 points deduction has been overturned, so Inter milan have been pushed down to 6th, they cannot make the top four, so they have to focus on the champions league now. In fact, Inter Milan will also be in big trouble if they don't prioritize Serie A at the moment. Because Inter Milan might not be able to get champions league tickets for next season's champions league. I know Inter are currently focusing their team on performing optimally in the Champions League, but that doesn't mean they have to give up tickets for next season. With Juventus currently in 3rd place it will make the competition for the top 4 in Serie A even more fierce. So that Inter Milan must be able to perform consistently both in the Champions League or Serie A. It looks like they know this very well as they have already started taking very seriously Serie A and they have won against Empoli right now with 2 beautiful goals from Romelo Lukaku which look like he has found himself again in the attack after scoring not only here but also in Champions League against Benfica during this last midweek. Also Milan tonight needs to win against Lecce at home as they also have nothing assured now that Juventus points have returned and Lazio is ahead,it has become interesting but I think that even Milan should have no problems winning against Lecce in their home stadium tonight. |

Do you think Benfica wins easily or do you also share my opinion that nervousness can get in the way?
I agree, Benfica is under a lot of pressure, considering that something similar has happened in the past and Benfica, despite the advantage it had, lost the championship. Some nervousness is starting to be felt, both from the team and even from the fans. Estoril has always been a difficult opponent, but within reach of this Benfica. The fact that they managed a draw in Italy, despite having dropped out of the Champions League, may have given them extra motivation, because they saw that they are still capable of scoring goals. If Benfica starts the game well and focused on winning, it has a good chance of doing so. We'll see. I think Benfica will win and even with a lot of goals scored,the fact that they are now eliminated from the Champions League means that their full focus will be in Liga Portugal and they would want to ensure they win it as soon as possible.From what I remember every time they have played against Estoril they have won with at least some goals scored and I doubt we will see a different case this time. In Italy it was because Inter let the guard down after going to 3-1 that they scored goals and equalized,they were not playing well and Inter saw that,the fact that Inter had won 0-2 in Portugal let them relaxed and they deserved the qualification. |

Newcastle are playing great home games this season... They have more stability than Spurs, who play very unpredictably... Spurs have failed to win any of their last five away games, including against Everton and Southampton... It will now be a battle to qualify for the Champions League... I think Newcastle will win, despite last week's embarrassing game against Aston Villa...
Newcastle has indeed transformed into a strong team this season, they have managed to be able to compete for the top 4 positions in the standings, to be able to qualify for the Champions League next season. Their performance this season has been outstanding, albeit with some visible flaws. But despite all that and seen from the whole they really deserve to be in the top 4. Newcastle has a crucial match against their top 4 major contender Tottenham today, a win will consolidate their top 4 position infact they will move to third position with 59 points same with Man Utd but with a massive goal advantage though Man Utd will an outstanding match, it's very obvious the Eddie Howe side will qualify for UCL next season going by their resurgence and consistency in their performance courtesy of new Billionaire owner and brilliant job done by Eddie Howe even without any new Marquee signings by the club, a qualification to UCL next season will attract new quality players this will enable the club to be more formidable in the league and UCL competition. If Newcastle wants to forget the dramatic lost game 3-0 against Aston Villa last week they better give it all in this game in order to win and to put Tottenham at hold while they go fast and undisturbed in the Champions League spots for the next season,for me they deserve it more than Tottenham after Tottenham failing to secure points against weaker teams and not being as consistent as Newcastle is. However Newcastle should be very careful exactly because of this inconsistency that Tottenham has shown throughout the season,they may as well surprise us all and win this game but I don't think that will be the case today. |
