And it looks like both the T20 wc and remaining IPL will be hosted from UAE since it is the best and reliable compared to other venues.

Still waiting for the confirmation. From what I heard, the BCCI is still resisting the move, claiming that the situation in India will soon come under control. I am not sure how they reach such a conclusion, since cases are sharply increasing in states such as Uttar Pradesh and Karnataka. The BCCI is behaving not just foolishly, but they are also treating the ICC and other cricket boards with a lot of contempt.

BTW, the latest news from IPL is that Tim Seifert has become the first overseas player to test positive for COVID 19. He was a part of the Kolkata Knight Riders squad (which reported multiple positive cases among the players earlier). Seifert will undergo treatment at a private hospital in Chennai. Apart from Seifert, Michael Hussey (the batting coach of Chennai Super Kings) had tested positive previously.
Medical experts say it is possible to control the spread only if there is nationwide lockdown for two or three months but until now there is no sign of nationwide complete lockdown, only lockdowns with restrictions on the states where the cases are high so it's more likely the cases will hit spike further if the central government doesn't take timely actions.

This means we can't see the remaining of IPL 2021 if BCCI still don't want to move to other country.

Most of the overseas players from the IPL tournament were out of the country now but most of them moved to another country and they will complete their quarantine period before moving to the native countries but not sure what is happening with Australian players.

And it looks like both the T20 wc and remaining IPL will be hosted from UAE since it is the best and reliable compared to other venues.
43  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum on the rise: Sell or HODL? on: May 07, 2021, 05:55:34 PM
It looks like Ethereum is on a non-stop road towards success as people keep pouring money into it like crazy. With several upcoming upgrades on the Ethereum blockchain, things will only get better for the native "Ether" cryptocurrency. Day by day, I'm tempted to sell all of my ETH holdings for profit. But some are saying that ETH will be worth $5k or even $10k in the future. This makes me wonder whenever now it's a good time to sell or continue "hodling" until ETH reaches the aforementioned price range.

If you were in my position, what would you do? Would you sell all of your ETH during the current bullish market? Or will you "hodl" and wait until it goes to $5k - $10k? Do you think ETH's current prices are sustainable? If not, why? Any suggestions, or recommendations will be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Smiley
I will take the profits and HODL the remaining, ethereum is facing lot of issues lately but still its somehow managed to get the attention of the investors. Ethereum gas fee decreased considerably this may be a reason why more investors are encouraging ethereum but its still far expensive compared to other cryptos even bitcoin.

Humans are the biggest enemy to humanity, they know that p2p is the only choice for Nigerian people to convert their cryptos into fiat or vice versa so they take advantage by changing the price smaller when you sell BTC to them and charge a much higher fee when you buy from them and this is how that N18+ difference before.

But it doesn't mean other franchise owners are not rich they are also rich as far as I know but since they have no obligation to do it then they won't go for it. And it also not advisable to leave India now which may be a reason for spread in other country so staying here until everything becomes normal is wise which can be affordable I guess.
The franchise and the IPL governing body does have obligations to the players which were present during these situation and why would they want to stay in India far away from family members if they are not having any work and that too living in a bubble that is not even secure. You cannot wash your hand and say that you do not have any obligations, you need to take care of them and make sure they reach home safely rather than asking them to stay here in India.
Just take a look at another point of view, cricket players are humans too since the virus started to spread inside the bubble already so if they are going to leave into their country then they have potential risk for being a cause of new strain into their country unintentionally that's why my opinion was here to stay if it is possible.

I thought it will stay in the network for only two weeks and if anything exceeds the network will drop the transaction but you are saying that you waited 60 days and OP 23days and still counting so what is the actual maximum time for the transaction to be in the pending/unconfirmed status?
What I am saying is that a transaction may remain stuck in mempool, the best is to make sure you have possible ways to make sure a transaction can be unstuck easily either through RBF or CPFP because thinking of a transaction to finally leave the mempool in a way you can rebroadcaste it can be so frustrating, it may even never happen.
Yeah, I know the importance of enabling RBF while broadcasting a transaction but technically I just wants to know how long a transaction can stay in the mempool?

I will never make a transaction more than 1MB depth from the mempool so I always keep an eye on the mempool chart whenever I want to make transactions but it's completely out of our hands when we use custodial wallets.

I have once had a frustrating stuck transaction for over 2 months before it was confirmed, I have my wallet not synchronized for over 30 days to the extent I was not able to see the transaction on some mempool again, but nothing was reflecting on my balance. I had to wait until the transaction was confirmed. The sender may not be able to rebrocaste the inputs even if he has full control over the wallet.

48  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Percent gains and losses on crypto on: May 06, 2021, 05:31:02 PM
Hey guys.  I'm not sure how to ask my question but this is regarding Ledger Live or Coinbase.  So let's say I buy $100 worth of bitcoin and send right away to my Nano X wallet.  On Ledger Live it shows the bitcoin balance and the US dollar conversion.  I only did a one time purchase and deposit of $100 so anything above or below $100 is easy to read and I know if I had gained or lost as bitcoin fluctuates.

But what happens over time with numerous purchases at different amounts and different bitcoin prices?  After numerous deposits to my wallet, how do I quickly see if I'm ahead or behind without going back to coinbase and adding up every single purchase and comparing that amount to the ledger live balance?  Instead, all it shows is the balance.  If I was to purxhase another $100, it just lumps it all together.  I have the same question if I was to leave my bitcoin on the Coinbase exchange.  I guess what Im asking is how do I know the total of my original investment?

It would be nice if on every deposit, you had the option to input what price you bought at and how much you purchased so that everything is automatically calculated whether you are doing good or bad.  Then it can show you a percent gain or loss since you started. I may be not seeing something here, but it seems to be an important option tool thats missing from Ledger Live and/or Coinbase.  Thank you
If you want to keep track of your profits and losses in terms of fiat value then you should keep a sheet which should be included with the fiat value and cost price, you can't find the fiat value without checking the history of your trades and as others said as for wallet its bitcoin so they never going to keep track of the fiat value at what time you deposited for each of your deposits.

Its not acceptable that other franchises are not in such financial status to care their players because almost every franchise owned by the rich individuals.

It is a very tricky situation. According to the contract obligations, the owners of the franchise are not responsible for the players. it is the duty of the franchise. And many of the franchises have suffered financial losses due to the suspension of the tournament, and they are using that excuse for not helping the players. In case of Mumbai Indians, the owner (Nita Ambani) decided to spend money out of her own pocket to arrange flights for the players. As such, she is not required to do so, in a legal sense.
Nita Ambani, wife of one of the richest individuals wife in the world and Asia's most richest person's wife so they can do with no issues. But it doesn't mean other franchise owners are not rich they are also rich as far as I know but since they have no obligation to do it then they won't go for it. And it also not advisable to leave India now which may be a reason for spread in other country so staying here until everything becomes normal is wise which can be affordable I guess.

While all the other IPL franchises have left the foreign players to their own fate, the Mumbai Indians have shown exceptional character by arranging charter flights to each of their players. And better still, they have stated that players from other franchises will be free to join these private flights. For the Australian players, the charter flight will first take them to Maldives, where they will spend 10 days in quarantine, before resuming their journey towards Australia. The other franchises have refused to arrange similar services for their players, saying that they are not in good financial condition.

Mukhesh Ambani’s Reliance owned-Mumbai Indians are arranging multiple chartered flights to send back their players home. Not only that, they are believed to have offered players from other franchises join them. With no UK player in their camp, no MI flight was bound for London, but definitely to other countries – South Africa, New Zealand and the Caribbean.
Great news though but overseas players from other players might not be able to join even if they wanted to since the spread already crossed their bio bubble so its not possible to find who is infected with the virus or else they have to take multiple tests and quarantine before joining to fly to their nation.

Even you can make money suing NFT when you are not a creator, just like any other investments. Buy low and sell high is the easiest way to make money and there are lot of NFT available for very cheap price.

Its literally not possible to make something valuable from no value unless it has really some use case so don't just blindly invest on anything which is called NFT, pick the right one.
People are collecting all sort of things. With younger generation growing NFT space will get bigger and bigger since they would prefer NFT instead of something phisical.
What makes you think in that way?

IMO, NFT digital arts sold for millions of dollars which is not having any real use case other than showing that it is the original and unique so it can't be counterfeit so its more like a collectible item for the old rich community people.

Don't know if any big nations or associate nations had any problem with BCCI hosting the WC, its just that covid changed the scenario and BCCI about to lose a hosting right. As far as Tax fiasco is concern i think it got resolved, after so much discussion and drama BCCI agreed to pay tax on icc behalf.

OK.. so BCCI will bear the tax burden and ICC should be happy now. But I still don't understand why the BCCI want to host this event so badly. Spectators are not allowed, since the (full) vaccination is only 3% done. If the event is hosted in the UAE, then spectators can be allowed as half the population of UAE is now fully vaccinated. Why the BCCI is trying so hard for an event, where it will receive zero gate collection?
If you are conducting matches in overseas stadiums then you need to pay for the stadium as well means you will get less revenue compared to the match happening in India, originally IPL was planned to conduct with the spectators because there is no covid cases at all when BCCI planned all these things because they thought that it will bring more revenue to them over last year IPL.

According to my knowledge of the currencies and the mining process, instead of creating the 21 million bitcoins on the same day and selling them all on the same day and all the profit goes to the 'bitcoin creator', bitcoin has been made through the mining process gradually, instead of distributing all bitcoins.  But at the moment, won't mining hurt the market? Because miners are a source of Bitcoin without buying it, such as counterfeiting money (creating money without buying it) that harms the currency market.

Edit: moved.
Miners are the only source that mine ( creates) bitcoins so its the actual only way and the profits are not going to the creator of bitcoin, it just goes to the miners who invested their money to mine bitcoins which are essential for the bitcoin transactions to be confirmed.

Once 21 millions of bitcoins were mined the miners will still the rewards from the transaction fee but they can't be able to mine anymore bitcoins.

Are you mention what I said or what? I don't get you. Miners didn't invested anything, there is just a result, they just generating extra bitcoins which are being sold in the market without a benfit to the market. This is why I likened it to counterfeiting money.

What I meant that, the more bitcoin mined, the more investors should come to the market. i.e: without more investors, market will get broken, Not sure too.
Bitcoin miners are running with high-powered ASIC machines which needs electricity and capital to buy the hardware and do you know how much hash rate needed to mine 1 bitcoin?

21 million bitcoin is the max cap of bitcoin and learn about the block rewards! next time don't be a stupid to ask such questions.

If you say that increase of cryptocurrency due to the fear of spread then you are wrong, it only applies to the digital fiat payment modes. Cryptos become more famous in this pandemic just because the price increased a lot and it made the investors and common man to believe that it is not just a bubble which is also an investment assets. We can use cryptos for transactions with no physical contact but how many of them are really using cryptos as payments over investments?
58  Economy / Economics / Re: April 2021 set a new record India. How much effect in Indian economy? on: May 04, 2021, 07:44:51 PM
April 2021 set a new record of Rs. 1,41,384 crore in GST collection in india.
Despite the second wave of COVID-19 pandemic effecting several parts of the country.
Indian business have once again shown remarkable resilience by not only complying with the return filing requirements but also paying their GST dues in a timely manner during the month.
     The finance ministry said in a statement.

 IT good for county economic?

India collected world record tax just because of their high tax rate and tax for everything not from any improvement in their economic improvements in their infrastructure. Even most of the economists accepted that the implementation of GST in India killed a lot of small business and also mentioned by the articles all over the world. This is an example to the world of what will happen when you give powers to illiterate people as leaders.

I shocked when I saw that IPL has been stopped since the virus entered into more teams and in my opinion, it will take at least 2 to 3 months to resume the matches again if they want to continue the matches in India, or else they should move the tournament to UAE or another country which is also less likely to happen.

BCCI and Franchises will take care of the players because they got enough money to keep everyone in the hotels for years so no need to worry about them.

BCCI made the mistake of conducting the matches in India, when the pandemic was at its peak. Now they should properly compensate the players, especially those from the foreign nations. The BCCI bosses (especially Ganguly and Shah) are responsible for this situation, as they never considered any factor other than making money. Now at least they should move the T20 World Cup to the UAE. India is not in a condition to host any major tournament under current conditions.
The peak will be reduced in the next week or two so the condition will become normal in 2 months maximum so they will be good to conduct the tournaments if everything goes normally.

I don't know about the IPl contract between the players where is something related to such emergency compensation is available but they paid good amount at the auction so they will also be happy with the money they got as long as BCCI is taking all the expenses until the IPL resumes.
