OMG,,, I am really surprised by the performance of South Africa today. I couldn't have imagined that a strong team like England would lose to South Africa by a huge margin of 229 runs. England is currently having the worst performance in ICC World Cup 2023 and their batting and bowling performance is very poor. For which they were all out in 22 overs in today's match by collecting 170 runs, where South Africa had given a target of 400 runs. Basically the current South Africa team is in the best form we have seen them perform well in every match. Moreover, South Africa has been placed in a good position in the points table. I had predicted today that South Africa might not make the match against England, but everything turned negative. South Africa batsmen batted brilliantly and put up a huge score, putting England under pressure and losing by a huge margin. No one expected this 2019 World Cup winning England team to perform so badly in 2023, but I hope they can improve their performance in the next match in England.
400 runs target is very difficult for any team to win which is unbelievable. England batting with a target of so many runs will definitely lose, but I never imagined that a strong team like England would lose by such a margin. The first powerplay fell 4 wickets, putting England under a lot of pressure. England finally managed to bat till 22 overs and were bowled out for 170 runs. South Africa is surprising everyone with a big score. We have been impressed with both South Africa's batting and bowling. Won by 229 runs by a huge margin. I think South Africa can play the semi-final very easily this time. Had the target been between 340-350 I would have thought England had a chance to win. A target of 400 runs is almost impossible to win. I don't think this is possible unless a miracle happens. England batted against a big target of 400 runs. England's players were under a lot of pressure from the beginning of the innings. And I think England's batting disaster is due to being under too much pressure. I thought even if the England team lost they would still be able to score more than 300. But England's innings stopped at just 170 runs. England were defeated by 229 runs. This is probably the biggest margin of defeat in World Cup history. 229 Runs!!! Such a huge margin would have been fine for any other team but England fans will never accept the huge margin of 229 runs for former champions England. The pitch on which South Africa batted to give a target of 400 runs while on the same pitch England lost 7 wickets for 84 runs. In the end, if Mark wood 43 and G Atkinson 35 runs, then England could not take 170 runs. Then the remaining seven England batsmen failed in a way that England fans will never accept. In the position England are in now, all their chances in this World Cup are almost gone. To qualify, one must win every last match, which is impossible. Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai is not very batting friendly. The first innings average of this pitch is 239 runs. The South African batsmen played brilliantly. Their performance especially in the last 10 overs was impressive. The New Zealand team won by chasing maximum runs on this pitch. New Zealand won by batting against a target of 285 runs given by India. South Africa has the highest collection of this pitch. They scored 438 runs against India and South Africa won the match by 214 runs. From these statistics it is easy to understand that batting in the second innings is very difficult on this pitch. So when South Africa set a target of 400 runs, I was sure that South Africa would win by a big margin today. But I don't imagine it will win by a huge margin of 229 runs. My prediction was that South Africa will win by 100-150. |

However, I don’t lose hope for Manchester United until I see the end of the game. I don’t think Manchester United will lose to Sheffield United.
Even with Manchester United's poor performance, I knew they would win the match. I was expecting them to struggle before they would be able to win, and it happened. Sheffield United is also a weak team that is currently in a relegation zone. If not for Manchester United's poor performance this season, they should be able to win the match with a wide goal margin, they struggled to score just two goals in the match. But pressure will reduce a little bit on Ten Hag. If Manchester United loses or draws today's match, everyone will already be asking for Ten Hag to be sacked. The weakest team in the Premier League is Sheffield. So far they have not won any match, even they have managed to earn points in only one match. Their defense is very weak. There was no doubt that Manchester United would win against such a team. Even then, Manchester United's performance was quite poor. I expected a better performance from Manchester United, because the opposition was very weak. If United can't improve on this performance, they won't win against a mediocre team. Chelsea currently with Pochetino have quite good development. This means that there is visible progress in Chelsea's training pattern. It seems like the fans just have to be patient and enjoy the process. I think Chelsea should keep him. He's a good coach and has a lot of quality in the League. If they rush to change coaches, I think it will create new problems because players need to adapt again.
I can see improvement in Chelsea performance now, and I think Pochetino is beginning to find the perfect pattern that will work for Chelsea. Everyone is just surprised with the way Chelsea played today, it would have been more interesting if Chelsea was able to win the match, but I am still satisfied with the draw with the way they played today, it came as a surprise to most people. I have no doubt that Chelsea played brilliantly today. It was not easy to get points against Arsenal. Chelsea led 2-0 until 76 minutes. Although Arsenal players attacked a lot, Chelsea players successfully countered every attack. However, after 70 minutes, Chelsea's performance slowed down a bit. Suddenly their performance deteriorates. And so they failed to win the match. But Pochettino seems to be able to gradually stabilize his squad. |

Not sure whether I can agree with your statement. Neymar got injured during the 2022 FIFA World Cup as well. And that was one of the reasons why their campaign ended at quarter-finals stage. Neymar took part in that match against Croatia, but he was not 100% fit. Ancelotti may think that Neymar is not an integral part of the Brazilian squad. But IMO, Brazil struggles against quality sides when he is not present. This is not the Brazil team that we all know from the 1990s or 2000s. Apart from Neymar, other players doesn't have the capability to win matches on their own.
That's what Neymar does, he makes you feel hyped and hopeful and then gets injured and act as if that's pure luck. Dude, you get injured every single time you are out there anyway, so do not make it look like you guys have a chance. Brazil doesn't have a proper squad right now, even though people think they are good, that's because they are brazil and not because they have a good team at all, I think it's obvious that we are going to end up seeing them do a lot worse, and should be expecting something much bigger from them. It would be smart to avoid it as much as we possibly could, the best thing we can do at this moment would be just letting it go by as much as you can, and that would make it like enter all these tournaments and then lose. Brazil will definitely take some damage because of Neymar in the next World Cup. They are counting on this player but when Brazil thinks he is in good form to have a good performance and help the team, he gets injured and they should find alternative players. I think that's why even others should not rely just on one palyer like Ronaldo, Neymar, and Messi for the World Cup. @Sithara007 I don't think it is about him being present, or not when Brazil struggles. It is because they do not have a balanced team. And honestly not having Neymar available for Brazil is not a big problem because Brazil already has a lot of strikers and wingers. Especially, wingers. Not even pure strikers. And about winning a single match on his own, when he will be 34, I believe he will also not have the ability to do that as well. And personally, I believe it is better to not depend on a player who gets injured regularly to have a very impactful performance. |

Wow, Congrats to you. that's nice to hear! Same on how you earned yours, I earned my first crypto coin here in bitcoin talk forum by joining signature and bounty campaign and it helps me a lot in my financial needs while learning how the crypto market works by reading topics here. This forum serves as my stepping stone in my crypto journey wayback 2017 and as of now, I am earning from the signature campaigns. it's a quite hard to gain 1 BTC today but it depends how consistent and eager you are.
That cannot be denied, and I am also the same as you, through this forum I have learned a lot, not only my first Bitcoin which I got here, but a lot of learning that I didn't get anywhere else so that I can be what I am today, good at collecting Bitcoin/Investing or trading Bitcoin and emerging confidence for the future cannot be separated from the long process that I have gone through with my friends in this forum. I have an outside job and income so the majority of my bitcoin portfolio was purchased and accumulated with my salary. Participating in forum and signature campaigns is just part of my bitcoin accumulation process. But I want to agree with you two on one thing: while active on this forum, I also learned a lot of knowledge about bitcoin that other forums and social networks do not tell us. There are many useful things and knowledge from security to knowledge about bitcoin that I have never known before. I remember many years ago my portfolio was mostly altcoins and it wasn't giving good results. But in recent years, bitcoin has made up 80-90% of my portfolio, I really feel like I'm slowly changing my opinion on bitcoin the longer I stay on this forum. |

Which is the best crypto exchange for P2P transactions ? I am looking for a good alternative to Binance P2P.
I think for p2p on centralized exchanges currently Binance is still very good. I also often use p2p services if the amount of sales or purchases I make is only small. Because usually if I sell crypto and withdraw it to my account via a local exchange in my country, I will incur quite a large fee. So I avoid it if it's a small transaction. But in fairly large transactions I prefer to use local exchange services only. My experience in P2P transactions on Binance is also quite comfortable and safe. I havent encountered any significant problems while using it. Just choose users who have good ratings and have good reviews. and dont forget to look at the average transaction speed of these users. Because there are some users who are a little late in releasing or responding. And that can be a bit annoying. Binance, after all, acts as an intermediary, a middleman if you will. It is important to know the difference between these two types of p2p because real p2p is decentralized, meaning that there is no one person controlling the process. Your emphasis on user reviews and transaction speeds is commendable. But lets also talk about the problem: Binance does seem safe, but relying only on user reviews and scores may make you trust the wrong things. Its true that reviews can be skewed and that speed doesn  t always mean reliability. Always think things through and be critical. That much attention should be paid to your hard-earned crypto. To put it bluntly, P2P on Binance is no longer P2P in the true sense because the transaction has the intervention of a middleman and here it is Binance. But it can be said that P2P on Binance, or centralized exchanges, is still the choice of the majority of people because of convenience such as high liquidity, cheap transaction fees, and fast transactions. If you have ever traded P2P on binance, the most effective way to choose a trader is based on reviews and ratings, there is no second way. But in the unfortunate event that your transaction has a problem, it is not a big problem if you comply with Binance's regulations. I remember they have a complaint department during the transaction so no one can scam you or take your money. Their only problem is the KYC process that many people don't like. |

Waif a minute, why are we more concerned about the present the negative impact of the player, if he's injured ofcourse he would rest like any other player will do, ofcourse Real Madrid can survived without Jude Bellingham this season. Real Madrid current wonderkid, Jude Bellingham is having good moments in Santiago Bernabéu in his first season. He's quite different from the rest players in Real Madrid because he happens to be one of the versatile player that's capable of handling different key positions on the pitch. Carlo Ancelotti and Florentino Pérez do admired him and his style of game, he's a prominent player and will successfully replaced the aged players like Luka Modric and Toni Kroos in the midfield.
But if he gets serious injured and must to be recovery for a few months, wouldn't that be bad? As you said, Bellingham is a "versatile player" and I think without him Real Madrid might not be on fire like now. Bellingham contribution to every Real Madrid game is really big, so it's natural that there are concerned. Because without that man, Real Madrid might have difficulty to winning, he has become a hero at Real Madrid so far in terms of wins anyway. Fortunately, Bellingham condition was fine. Even, previously in the England national team match, Jude Bellingham successfully got one assist at there. In essence, Madrid can run as it should even without Bellingham, Madrid is still a big club, which has a bigger winning presentation when playing matches. Even though on the one hand Bellingham has emerged as a hero for Real Madrid, his dependence on him can be handled by other players in Ancelotti squad. As an example we have certainly seen how much influence Ronaldo had on the Madrid squad in his era, but after he moved to Juventus, Madrid remained fine. Concerns about injury really need to be anticipated, but Ancelotti and Perez understand quite well about managing the risks that arise. Of course, the transfer market next January will be an opportunity for Ancelotti to look for a main striker. In the end, Bellingham presence really helped improve Madrid's performance, but if Bellingham is absent, Ancelotti still has five to six options to play a role in his position. I think Real Madrid is a little scared because he has been doing the majority of scoring for Real Madrid as well. Let's be honest, the strikers that Real Madrid has been using so far, have not been able to perform as expected. A lot of people might even say that they are pretty useless. If it was not for Jude Bellingham, Madrid would have definitely faced a lot of problems regarding scoring goals. And now, if he is injured, Real Madrid is not going to score as well as they were doing so far. I understand that Real Madrid will be able to survive without him. But surviving is definitely not enough for Real Madrid when they are chasing multiple titles. |

Australia team performed very well against Pakistan today which is surprising. Australia team has collected 367 runs which will be a big target for Pakistan. Of course Pakistan team has to give a very good batting performance to win this match today. I noticed something during the match Pakistan team has many misses regarding fielding due to which Australia team got chance and two opening batsman warner and Mitchell Marsh scored huge runs. And the opening two batsmen have scored maximum runs which is the performance of both of them which gives Australia team a lot of chances to win this match. But if Pakistan can perform well in terms of batting then surely we can enjoy a competitive match.
The game of the Pakistan openers was good enough today,both the opener going to complete their fifty runs.Shafique and Imam ul Haq game was good today.They both scored 104 runs in 17 overs was not expected one by the Australian bowlers.Because the Cummins gave 33 runs and Starc also gave 28 runs and very expensive today.The 367 runs was good one,but if the Australian was not take the early wicket of the team Pakistan.It will be the big trouble for the team Australia at the end.Because if the opener was set to the field,the run from that batsman will be unpredictable at the end of the game.Today game was very important for team Australia then Pakistan team. Pakistan team started very well but the fall of three wickets put Pakistan team under a lot of pressure. Just as Australia's opening batsmen performed well, Pakistan's players Shafique and Imam-ul-Haq also started the performance. But if Pakistan team wants to win today's match then they must save the wicket and survive till the end. Pakistan's victory will depend on these two batsmen, Rizwan and Saud Shakeel, who are one of the strongest players in the current crease. Because the next batsmen are not very strong so if these two wickets can perform well then I think Pakistan will definitely win. But in terms of bowling and doing great performance for the Australian team, it is a competitive match at present. If Babar Azam was able to perform well Pakistan would have been able to win. But Pakistan did not get better performance from their experienced batsmen. Even if Babar scored 60+ runs, the road to victory would have been a bit easier for Pakistan. Mohammad Rizwan and Iftikhar are batting now. These two batsmen are also quite talented. But now it has become very difficult to win this match. Pakistan need 116 runs from 78 balls. It cannot be said that it is impossible to collect. It can be collected if Iftikhar and Rizwan play well. But the Australian bowlers are quite experienced. It is now very difficult to collect 9 runs per over against them. But if these two batsmen can survive at the crease, maybe Pakistan can win. |

During war of course many commodities skyrocket such as gold, foodstuffs, war equipment and others, of course during war the production, distribution and agricultural processes are disrupted, causing prices to skyrocket, of course this is different from bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, most people will do safe things, for example saving or divert to low-risk types of investments.
These goods only increase in areas where there is war, whereas in many areas that are still quite safe there will be no sudden increase in the price of goods by a significant amount. So you cannot generalize the prices of all goods in all regions of the world, unless all countries are hit by a major war and there are not enough goods to use because the production that can be carried out by companies and factories is limited. Meanwhile, most cryptocurrencies skyrocket due to good moments and news about them so they will not be affected by wars occurring in certain regions, unless all countries are at war so investors have difficulty accessing the cryptocurrency market. The war between Israel and Hamas doesn't have much impact on bitcoin or the cryptocurrency market, but what about the war between Russia and Ukraine? I remember that when the war between two countries broke out, most financial markets were dumped and bitcoin was no exception. So, I will disagree with you saying that the cryptocurrency market will not be affected by a war in a region or between several countries. Another thing we should not deny is that when these two wars happened, the price of gold both increased, this shows the importance of gold to the world but this has never happened with bitcoin. |

Many people are underestimating the impact of ETFs on bitcoin, but if you look back at the history of gold, you will see how gold skyrocketed after the gold ETF was approved. I also believe that the impact of an ETF on bitcoin will be huge and very significant on bitcoin price.
If it doesn't have any impact on the market then why is the entire market bullish and paying attention to ETF related news? You can also see that just 1 fake news release in less than 1 hour can make the bitcoin price increase a lot, but what do you think will happen if it is real news?
There is no doubt that approval of ETF will fuel the positive trend of Bitcoin. It may not directly create demand but it can impact the market sentiment and can even give a huge impact to Bitcoin price if the ETF gain popularity and trust of masses. David Waugh stated in an article that ETF can serve as a connection for financial professionals who were previously hesitant or unprepared to enter the crypto space which could positively impact Bitcoin. I know that comparing gold ETFs and bitcoin ETFs is not entirely accurate, but I think there will be a psychological impact on the market as you said, which will create extremely strong Fomo and push bitcoin prices up. That's why I'm so bullish on ETFs. But we should also be careful in everything, we have a saying "buy rumors, sell the truth", if ETF is approved this year there will also be a big trap attached. I mean when the news of an approved ETF comes out, the market will Fomo and that's when the market makers will take profits. No matter how great the demand for bitcoin is, this market is still heavily manipulated, so we should be more careful. |

I think you need to look at this chart to see the real impact of ETFs being approved.
I believe Bitcoin Spot ETFs in the USA only get first approval and later ones in a big Bitcoin bull run. If such approvals come, they will come after halving events that historically cause new parabolic bull runs for Bitcoin. Compare impacts of Gold ETFs to Bitcoin Spot ETFs is good but again your comparison is only kind of estimation and it can be under or over estimation. We don't know how one event can affect another thing before the event actually happens and effects already seen. Similarly to difficulty we have when trying to find bottoms and all time highs of each bear or bull market. I know that nothing is certain here, but if you see the market reaction to the fake ETF news, you will believe that if the ETFs application is approved by the SEC, it will have a huge positive impact on bitcoin. Just as we are looking forward to the upcoming bull season after the halving, we do not have any evidence that it will definitely happen but we are still hopeful. So it's not wrong that many people are also hoping that the approval of ETFs will also create a price breakthrough for bitcoin. |

Maybe the president and politicians won't know about bitcoin because they have thousands of things to worry about but they have not just one but thousands of consultants and experts in every field working for them. It would be naive to assume they would introduce bans or regulations without knowing anything about bitcoin. I bet the government understands bitcoin better than you and I, let alone the fact that they don't understand how bitcoin works. If they were more stupid than us, they wouldn't be able to lead us.
I don't know about other countries. But I know about my country. The government doesn't know anything good about Bitcoin. They have experts in every field, and those experts use Bitcoin secretly. LOL. They think Bitcoin users are criminals. Only criminals use Bitcoin to pay for their crimes. Some ministers have good knowledge of Bitcoin. For example, the Bangladeshi IT minister knows about Bitcoin, and he always supports it. But others do not agree with him because others don't understand how it works and why it's good. Some government Anal-yst say Bitcoin will open the door to money laundering. They sounds like money laundering is not happening without Bitcoin. Do you serve your government or work in government agencies? How can you know that they know nothing about bitcoin? We know where bitcoin comes from and they will also easily know bitcoin from the sources where we learn about it, knowledge about bitcoin is everywhere and it is not too difficult to find it. Furthermore, if they know nothing about it, how can they know it is harmful or widely used by criminals? That proves that your government also knows very well about bitcoin, but because they do not want to accept an asset, a currency that is not created and controlled by them. So they will give every reason to ban it. |

World Cup Qualifying Match Argentina vs Peru. Between Argentina and Peru In the last 5 head-to-head matches, Argentina won 3 matches and drew 2 matches. Between Argentina and Peru, Argentina is stronger. Argentina played 3 qualifying matches and won 3 matches. Peru played 3 matches lost 2 matches and drew 1 match. Argentina is number 1 in the points table and Peru is number 9. According to past statistics, Argentina are ahead to win today's match. If I had to make a prediction, I would definitely pick Argentina. Argentina's chances of winning today are very high. The game has already started let's see what happens in the end.
Argentina secured a 2-0 win over Peru thanks to a great performance by Lionel Messi. Argentina have won all four of the first four matches of the World Cup qualifiers. The former World Cup winning team is at the top of the points table with 12 points. In another match of the day, Brazil lost 2-0 to Uruguay. Brazil were favorites against Uruguay but they couldn't prove themselves as favorites on the field due to which they were defeated in this match. Brazil lost 3 points after losing against Uruguay and now they are at number three in the points table. Neymar suffered a major injury in this match against Uruguay and was seen walking off the field on a stretcher. I think almost everyone expected this kind of performance from Argentina. After all, they are the defending champions of the World Cup. So it was easy to predict that they were going to win this match. I actually think that Argentina is going to play the final of the World Cup again. The performance of Brazil has been really bad in recent times in the World Cup. Yes, in this match, Brazil was the favourite to win. But they failed. For some reason, I am starting to think that the Brazil team is generally overrated in recent times. |

The Milan versus Juventus meeting always presents a fierce match, especially since this match is worthy of being used as a benchmark for the club strength to become the favorite to win the Scudetto. On paper, Milan has a better chance, because it has more wins, while Juventus is below Milan statistics for this. In terms of squad depth, I see that both of them have equal strength, but Milan has the advantage because they act as hosts. However, I think Milan should be able to create more opportunities, because Juventus defense is still better than theirs. The result of this match is very decisive for topping the standings, Inter has the opportunity to overtake Milan if they draw with Juventus. However, one side of Milan doesn't look promising when they meet other big clubs, if they don't lose, Milan will only be able to draw. The goals scored and goals conceded records aren't that different, so I don't think it would take too much time to analyze them. Milan has a home advantage that is worth considering as favorites, but Juventus, who are starting to get their best form this season, must be watched closely. A small mistake will result in Milan losing points, but I believe Milan has a big chance of winning. Juventus are not favorites in this match, they lost several important players in that match due to injury. Dušan Vlahović, Federico Chiesa, Danilo and Alex Sandro are all known to be injured, but Milan also have the same problems even though they have a balanced squad. Milan are in fine form to face Juventus, so it seems normal why they are favourites. I actually predict that Inter is going to become the team that will be in the first place. Because they are going to win the next match for sure. And I do not think that Milan will be able to successfully get three points in the next match against Juventus. I believe it is going to be a draw between Milan and Juventus. I am also not going to be surprised if Juventus end up winning this match, to be honest. But on the other hand, I really believe Inter has a really good chance to win the next match. Because the opponent that they will be facing or just not really good enough. |

I really like Arsenal as well. The progress they have made so far is just marvelous. They are even considered as the 4th biggest contender for the Champions League title by bookies now. However I see one thing in Arsenal that could create a big problem for them when they face bigger challenges in the tournament. That thing is the lack of experienced players in the squad. I mean of course some of their young players have also gained a lot of experience to even lead the team - like Odegaard who is the new captain.
But I think they needed players such as Xhaka as well. They parted ways with him as well in the summer and now they are a very young team. Let's see how far they can make it like this.
Arsenal made it to UEFA Champions League this season and they're exhibiting their very best performance. Gunners are 100% ready to face challenging opponents this season, due to the reason and determination, they won their long-term preeminent rival for EPL title this season with just a thrilled 1 nil winning. That victory really had a positive impacts on the team, Mikel Arteta and his men are ready to boosts their performance in UCL this season. I'm confident they would qualify from from their group, it's not a big deal for Gunners, their main priority is reaching crucial phases in the long run for EPL this season. Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka will lead the team to path of glory this season. I don't think arsenal having young players it will be a problem to them in the Champions league, the truth is that arsenal is good in a better form to perform well. The young players arsenal have are really good, from their performance so far this season I think arsenal are good enough to challenge any big team in the champions league. Arsenal might not be lucky to win the Champions league this season but they will really make a good performance in their in Champions league this season. The understanding between Arsenal players is very good. Coach Mikel Arteta is doing a great job. He is helping to maintain the good relationship between the players. And this is why Arsenal's performance is so stable. Arsenal are able to maintain consistency. With the help of coach Arteta, Arsenal's players are also more confident now. And so despite having young players in the squad, they are doing quite well. If Arsenal's players are confident, injury free, and able to keep up that streak, I think we'll see this team in the semi-finals. Arsenal missed out on the Premier League title last season due to injuries. And I think Arteta has not forgotten about the problem. He also strengthened his bench team this time. It is expected that this team can dominate the Champions League. |

Countries ban bitcoin for different reasons, some, the government (president) didn't even know anything about crypto but the financial advisers gave the wrong information or they advise the government wrongly on cryptocurrency.
You already answered yourself. First, some country's government doesn't even know how it works and why it's good for people. Even if they know, they want their people to use bitcoin because they will miss a huge commission. If their people use alternative methods like banks and other financial services, the government will get a commission from each and very transaction while bitcoin does not provide any commissions to the government. The government won't be able to control people's money. They won't be able to use your money whenever they want. Bank does business with their customer's money. It's like frying a fish with it's oil. I agree with you on what you said that governments don't want their citizens to use bitcoin instead of banks or fiat. But I disagree with you and the OP in saying that the government knows nothing about bitcoin. Maybe the president and politicians won't know about bitcoin because they have thousands of things to worry about but they have not just one but thousands of consultants and experts in every field working for them. It would be naive to assume they would introduce bans or regulations without knowing anything about bitcoin. I bet the government understands bitcoin better than you and I, let alone the fact that they don't understand how bitcoin works. If they were more stupid than us, they wouldn't be able to lead us. |

Cointelegraph's twitter account has over 2 million followers and that's why it had such a strong impact even though the news was deleted within 5 minutes. They apologized and I think nothing will happen to them even though everyone knows they are manipulating the market perfectly. But this shows the positive impact of the ETF on bitcoin. Even though it's just fake news, sooner or later it will happen so we just need to hold bitcoin and wait.
Whether they have an intention to create a fake news or not, but actually such news should have no impact to market, so I don't agree if you said they want to manipulate the market. It just an approval for Bitcoin ETF, there's no relation with Bitcoin where everyone can buy it through CEX, DEX or P2P. Why someone need to buy BTC during SEC approving Bitcoin ETF? or anything that related to accepting and BTC when you can buy it now? Many people are underestimating the impact of ETFs on bitcoin, but if you look back at the history of gold, you will see how gold skyrocketed after the gold ETF was approved. I also believe that the impact of an ETF on bitcoin will be huge and very significant on bitcoin price. If it doesn't have any impact on the market then why is the entire market bullish and paying attention to ETF related news? You can also see that just 1 fake news release in less than 1 hour can make the bitcoin price increase a lot, but what do you think will happen if it is real news? I think you need to look at this chart to see the real impact of ETFs being approved.  |

Two relegation zone teams will face each other this week and I'm pretty sure one of them will get their first win of the season. The match will bring Lyon vs Clermont together and as we know both teams are very down and have only drawn and lost so far. Even though last season these two teams were quite fine, entrenched in the middle of the table, unforeseen circumstances must always be faced by teams that fail to maintain stability.
Maybe Lyon will be favored to win because they are the hosts and I don't think that is a strong reason for Lyon at this time because they still get bad results. I'm still waiting for Lyon's comeback moment with their first win and if they can do it in this match without any obstacles, then I'm pretty sure they will be a little better in the next match. What do you think? Does Lyon have a chance to win this week's match?
Lyon's performance is very disappointing. Their achievement is only 3 points in 8 matches. The team could not win even one of the 8 matches. I don't think the Lyon team is weak. I have seen good performances from this team in past seasons. But their performance has been very poor since the beginning of this season. And the main reason for their poor performance is their poor defense. They conceded 16 goals in 8 matches. Lyon have one of the weakest defenses in Ligue 1. Clermont's situation isn't much better either. The last team in the table is now Clermont. Lyon vs Clermont match is more likely to be a draw. The reason is that both parties are weak. And so no team wants to lose points. They will be happy to get 1 point from this match. |

It looks like the group leader in Group C has already been decided.  Because getting a win in Naples was going to determine the leader in the group technically for Real Madrid. Because I expect Real Madrid to win all the remaining Braga and Union Berlin games ahead above all else. After that I guess that Real Madrid wouldn't surprise me by losing the lead to Napoli in Santiago Bernabeu.  Real Madrid seem more credible to me to play bigger this season. I'm saying this even though they had Benzema last season. Because there is a much bigger progress in their performance compared to that season. Bellingham has changed this team a lot too but I like the team effort more at the same time. Real Madrid definitely has the ambition to wipe out the remaining four matches with a win, so that they will get perfect points in Group C. Napoli has the opportunity to fill the runner-up position, and Braga will continue its adventure in the Europa League. It is difficult for Napoli to dominate Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu, we know they lost at home in their previous match. Group C is relatively easy to predict, because it is filled with two top clubs and two non-top clubs. On the other hand, Ancelotti squad played quite solidly as a team. Regarding Bellingham, I think Ancelotti gave him a more attacking role and freed him from defending. So with a shortage of ideal pure strikers, Bellingham potential emerged and made an instant impact on the club. Going to the next stage from this group can't be hard for a team like Real Madrid but I think they will have problems in the next games after that because Real Madrid is hardly dependent on one palyer and after the loss of Benzema they couldn't have another good striker but instead, Real Madrid trying to use Jude Bellingham for everything and even for scoring goals which means they will have many problems if they lose this player and not if he gets injured in Real Madrid. Real Madrid is obviously going to qualify to the next stage paying the number one team in this group for sure. I have no doubt about that. I am actually interested to see if Real Madrid can actually be the winner of the Champions League competition this season. I want to see Real Madrid winning the Champions League. And I also want to see Real Madrid in a really good striker in the next transfer window. Because, without a really good striker, it is going to be hard for Real Madrid to win the Champions League. And if Real Madrid is thinking that they will just depend on Jude Bellingham to score goals for them, I think it is going to be a mistake. |

Bournemouth and Sheffield are two teams that have never won so far and I think the chances of these two teams getting closer to the relegation zone this season. Even so, Bournemouth probably have a better record with 3 draws which saw them collect 3 points and Sheffield is so bad with only collecting 1 point from one draw and the rest they lost. In the next match, maybe Bournemouth will have the opportunity to add 3 points against Wolves next week, especially this time they are the hosts and for Sheffield, maybe this will be a match that can do wonders for them because it is against Manchester United.
These two teams are currently the bottom two teams in the Premier League after eight matches; Bournemouth already had three points from three draw matches; they are one point behind Burnley, who have just won one match, lost six, and drawn one so far this season, while Sheffield United have so far had just one point out of all the eight games they played; therefore, I expect Bournemouth to win the match because they have had a good performance compared to Sheffield United. Sheffield must be able to take advantage of the poor results achieved by Manchester United so far and even though in the previous match Manchester United won dramatically, in fact they still had a very difficult time scoring first. Sheffield must force Manchester United to lose points and they must take advantage of the opportunities that exist to take the lead first and then defend fully. I know it's a bit difficult but Sheffield will have to try because they haven't had one so far.
I don't think Manchester United can lose their match against Sheffield United because they really need consistency in their games in order to keep fighting for the title or top four. Therefore, for them to have consistency, they need to win their next match before facing Manchester City. Well, as a team that has not been able to win so far this season, it is definitely going to be hard for Sheffield United to be able to win the match against Manchester United. if anything, Manchester United is going to look at this as an opportunity to get three points. Manchester United should look at this and realise that they have not performed well at all this season, and this is a golden chance for them to win a match and probably get things back on track. I think if Manchester United even loses one point, it is not going to be acceptable. Well, if they drop points, they are going to get only one point from this match if it is a draw. And if they lose it is going to be hilarious. But who knows, probably Sheffield United will be able to take advantage of the inconsistent form of Manchester United. |

I know that these are all pure assumptions, but instead of speculating massive ATH and 3x or 4x returns, which are way too common in the forum, why not expect something that is more probable to happen in the near future? And to be honest, doubling your investment is a great yield that cannot easily be found in other forms of investment.
I, too, tend not to set my expectations too high for the next halving event, considering the widespread speculation that the price will soar above $100,000. It's not an incorrect notion, but I find myself content with figures below that milestone. Such a scenario is a rarity in other investment instruments, like stocks or bonds. Moreover, being a Bitcoin investor is relatively straightforward and lacks many other requirements. In essence, the ease of purchasing Bitcoin is rewarding enough, even with gains of 100% or 150%. Furthermore, we'll always have the opportunity to acquire more Bitcoin whenever we please, as the bearish and bullish aspects are integral elements that consistently influence Bitcoin's price movements. It's good that you're not too greedy and set moderate goals for yourself to avoid regrets, but I find that a target of 100k$ or 120k$ is not too high for bitcoin in the upcoming bull season. I have even higher expectations than everyone's predictions, I believe bitcoin is completely capable of reaching $150k-180k. Many people say that investing in bitcoin is not a place to get rich quickly, but we should not deny that it is easier to make double or triple profits with bitcoin than with any other asset. That's why we invest in bitcoin instead of other options, so I still consider bitcoin a get-rich-quick investment more than other assets. |
