Arsenal have another easy game ahead I think. They are going to play away against Norwich tomorrow. Norwich are the team at the last position in the standings. They are the worst team when it comes to home games also. Arsenal are an OK team in away games. But I don't think that they will waste this big opportunity to win. They already have 3-win streak now and they can increase this to 4.
This should be one of the bonus game for Arsenal, it is now my best game when Liverpool versus Leeds United has been postponed. Burnley, Newcastle and Norwish City are all the worst team and likely they might all relegate. This should be a good win for Arsenal as Arsenal are playing better than before.

Newcastle - Manchester United

I still believe that newcastle can tie or win this game.
It is very possible there will be a time Newcastle will relegate and never come back to EPL for long time if it continues like that. Newcastle is still one of the worst club in EPL so far this season, there is nothing impossible while playing with underdog but Manchester United will have most chances to win the match.

Former Liverpool legend football player, now Aston Villa manager Steven Gerrard, has coronavirus. The impact of the coronavirus is increasing in the UK. This virus, which is caught in football players, affects the whole life negatively. Premier League matches were postponed, Tottenham were eliminated from the conference league for not playing. I look forward to the days when life will be the same as before. Tonight, Aston Villa will play Chelsea missing from Gerrard.
Not only Liverpool versus Leeds United that was cancelled, two others have also been cancelled, vis Tottenham Hotspur vs Crystal Palace and Burnley vs Everton has been cancelled as well. I was very excited that I will watch Liverpool's match but now cancelled. Let us hope the Omicron cases will also reduce.

There are still 6 EPL matches today, I am looking forward to watch Manchester City's, Arsenal's and Chelsea's matches. But just that I do not have much confidence in Chelsea yet, hopefully the club might perform good today.

Then why do you take the risk of taking a loan then if you don't know if bitcoin can go to $100k or $10k in the future? You are putting yourself in jeopardy and this is not a good financial advise in my opinion.

Yes, the prediction is already wrong, no 6 digits in sight and this is another lessons to learn in crypto.
So for me, it's better not to listen to this so called influencers or from those who predicted the price as they will be obviously just like you and me, making a wild and educated guess.
That will be the most foolish thing I can ever think about and that I can never do. The only thing I can do is to take a loan using my bitcoin as a collateral which is still better than just taking a loan. So if I do not pay on time, my bitcoin will be liquidated. This is a good strategy that rich people can use to avoid paying excessive taxes. But for someone to just decide to borrow money for bitcoin investment, it is absolutely foolishness if not well planned. In the next bull cycle, I believe some people having high amount of bitcoin holding that doe not want to sell will just have to loan another coins or currencies while holding their bitcoin as collateral.
4244  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Stick to altcoins or switch to Bitcoin or stablecoins? on: December 25, 2021, 07:15:37 PM
My biggest investment is bitcoin, it used to be as high as 70% but slowly and gradually I changed that, now it is more like 30-35% of my portfolio, second biggest is ETH with around 20%, a bit over nowadays, and so forth with over 10 different coins with the smallest only being 1-3% of my portfolio.
Why changing that? I have my 70% of my investment on bitcoin and it is quite good for me. The remaining 30% on altcoins. Is there any good reason you are changing? As for me, I am not changing this yet, I have gained a lot of money from investing on bitcoin and this will not make me change. I gained also from altcoins, but what I noticed was that some increased than bitcoin but some of them just moved like bitcoin and some did not even increased up to bitcoin, some remain as shitcoins while some are now dead. I still prefer most of my investment to be in bitcoin.
4245  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: My coins percentage down on: December 25, 2021, 07:06:59 PM
This is the risk we hold cryptocurrencies, as we know that the concept of decentralization makes the price of cryptocurrencies like a roller coaster, even bitcoin which already has a market cap of more than $800 billion is still very volatile and a few days ago it dropped more than 16%, but as long as we are patient then we opportunity to profit again.
It is true that the price of bitcoin is very volatile but I like the people that just hold and never sell, they can buy more even when the price of bitcoin is falling, the price will increase again and gain will still be the result. If everyone can be thinking like this and have this in their investment plan, it would really help. Nevertheless, no one that holds that will lose, only time is needed. People that are losing are traders and people that just want to sell very early. Those that are losing and sold early but later they regret that they sold after bitcoin price rose again.

New created coins still remain the most ways people can be scammed, what about new projects that are run by scammers? The contract address will be fake from the beginning and anyone that are greedy are scammed this way. What also about presales? During presales, will the smart contract address of a coin that is not yet listed on coinmarketcap or coingecko be listed? I don't think so.
4247  Economy / Reputation / Re: Discussion about escrow service offered by forum users on: December 25, 2021, 10:57:38 AM
What I know should be most important about escrow is trustworthiness, anyone that provide escrow should be perfect enough to make sure nothing go wrong. The purpose is to serves as an intermediary between two people due to trust of the service. Escrow person will have its own terms and conditions to make sure no one got scammed, both the buyer and the seller will also have to comply to the terms and conditions. If done appropriately, the buyer, seller and the escrow person will not be scammed which means no one will be scammed.
4248  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: My coins percentage down on: December 24, 2021, 07:10:17 AM
This is a risk that we certainly don't like, many altcoins are going down because the market conditions are still red, but I'm always optimistic that the market will recover soon and our assets will rise again soon, the most important key is to always be patient to hold and not panic.
Where did you see this or heard the information that the market is going down. Check the price of bitcoin and altcoins, there was a big fall like on 4th or 7th of December or so, after the fall, the market has been bullish again. Bitcoin that got to $40800 is now over $50000. If not that significant, but the market has been bullish recently. Bitcoin price even reached $51000 some hours ago.
4249  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Proof of work vs proof of stake? Why can't i STAKE my BTC? on: December 24, 2021, 07:04:38 AM
This issue can’t be just a matter of opinion. The truth is far from your personal “opinion”, ser. Because you believe that POS “is better” than POW will not make it so. With all due respect, do your research before posting foolish things in the forum.
Some people are very lazy and will not want to research and know about how to mine but only prefer staking while what I have heard before is that people that is not having 25 ether will not be able to stake, that is a lot high amount of money now if compared to US dollar. I see how this might be a possible way of centralisation but maybe there will be staking pools which are not centralized. I still prefer PoW over PoS and what I prefer most about bitcoin PoW is that bitcoin still have the strongest blockchain in the world.
4250  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Stop or continue trading on: December 24, 2021, 06:57:05 AM
With the fluctuating market, it's true that there's time you will lose your position using a stop-loss tools.
Yes, it has happened to me several times before. When I see the advantage of stop loss is when I want to leave a trade overnight, but I do not do that unlike before or when I am losing and predict the market will be reversed, I will not close the trade but just set stop loss at that time. I only used 1x now for trading and also doing spot trading, I only see stop loss also more useful for high leverage trading like 5x and up, but high leverage trading is not even advisable at all.

Though everything around is a self-explanatory decision making, it's mostly based on traders and investors
own experienced they are following when doing the business.
Yes for traders but investors do not need to use stop loss.
4251  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: When Bull Market will Start on: December 24, 2021, 06:48:40 AM
I am not expecting ATH in January but ATH can be at any time, if bitcoin price can decrease from $30000 to $69000 in short time in the last one that occur, bitcoin price can increase and reach ATH at any time. Just let us hold and be happy with the bullish outcome. Even bitcoin has been bullish when it falled to $40800. It has been increasing from that time to over $50000 at this time, maybe the bull market will continue, but I am not sure.
4252  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Stop or continue trading on: December 23, 2021, 07:07:34 PM
Do you use stoploss when you are trading?
Stop lose can be a very good tool to stop losing further in trading but also can be the other way at times when the market has been closed with the trader losing but the market getting back to the opposite direction that will later favor the position of the trader, but because the stop lose has made the trade to close, just the losses for stop lose is the result instead of the correction that might lead to gain. It is not good to use stop lose until it is necessary depending on what is analysed. There are many times I gained all because I did not use stop lose, leave the trade open and later go opposite and favor my direction which resulted to gain for me.
4253  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitstarz Need help getting my deposit back/credited on: December 23, 2021, 07:01:00 PM
It's possible for sites to have the same minimum deposit and withdrawal but then again there are a lot of sites that also allow smaller deposits.
Before using a centralized site that is using crypto for payment, it is very good to read their terms and conditions, most especially the minimum deposit and withdrawal and others. This has been a means custodial crypto sites are scamming the people with low amount. There would have been a lot of people that are scammed this way. Not only this gambling sites, also there are other terms and conditions provided by custodial exchanges and custodial wallets that are resulting to loss of money for people. Not you key not your coin applies to this.
4254  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: My coins percentage down on: December 23, 2021, 09:22:30 AM
Take it or leave it whenever there is a price crash altcoins portfolio suffer the most as It percentage always move in a multiple percent due to the large total supply and low market cap. So also when the market increases altcoins are the first to do multiple xs.
Not that altcoin will be the ones to multiply first, even altcoins are following bitcoin price movement, if bitcoin increase, altcoins will follow, if bitcoin decrease, altcoins will also follow. Just that the rate altcoins will increase will be higher but the rate it will decrease will also be higher. But there can be exceptions, there are over 10000 altcoins in the world, many coins are shitcoins and many are dead coins, many will increase but will not increase up to the percentage bitcoin increase while the fall can be more.
4255  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Proof of work vs proof of stake? Why can't i STAKE my BTC? on: December 23, 2021, 09:13:32 AM
It all depends on the algorithm itself. If the developer of a coin wants to implement POS algorithm, you will be able to stake. For example, ETH is now a POW coin so you can mine it. But in 2022 (hopefully) they will be moving to POS mechanism, so you will be able to stake the coin and won't be able to mine it using your computing power. 
What many people were hopeful about ethereum 2.0 was that people will be able to stake ethereum and also pay low transaction fee, but now still getting longer and ethereum fee is very high like nothing has been changed. Let us hope ethereum will finally move to PoS by 2022, but just that PoW is far better than PoS as the equipment used for mining are bought and help the companies producing the equipments to also gain unlike PoS that only deals with staking, also that electricity companies are also paid to produce more electricity, PoW helps in the progrey of these companies.
4256  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: December 22, 2021, 06:38:45 PM
Inter is really making all possible strengths to make sure they won this season Seria A and it is becoming more possible. Playing with Torino but winning Torino 1 goal to nothing. Second half has started already, but likely the club may win again today.

Sassuolo 0 - 3 Bologna

Who could imagine that Sassuolo, who has scored at least 2 goals in the last matches, would have lost against Bologna and as if the defeat wasn't a painful thing, bologna didn't allow Sassuolo to score at least 1 goal. when people say that anything can happen in the field they are not lying
It is expected, it was just a match and such can happen. I viewed the performance of both clubs, all I noticed was that they have similar strength which makes it possible for what happened in the match to happen. Even strong clubs at times suffer losses to underneath clubs.
4257  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 on: December 22, 2021, 06:28:08 PM
their players are slowly coming back and of course suarez is sorely needed at the moment.
Suarez immediately started and they are now 1 goal ahead thanks to a quick goal from Felix in the second minute.
technically they will actually win easily in this match, hopefully there will be no accidents that are fatal and harm the team
Atletico Madrid scored back in 17th minute and they are playing draw as at 25th of the first half. This should not be a difficult match for Atletico Madrid to win, it will surprise me if they draw or lose which I think both will never happen today but to just win. All I predicted is for Atletico to have its 3 points today, Granada is not that a good club.
4258  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: EFL English Championship League Thread 2021/2022 on: December 22, 2021, 06:17:28 PM
Arsenal wins by 5 goals to 1 when they met Sunderland. This is a proof that Sunderland isnt the right opponent for a big team like Arsenal. And Arsenal is sometimes able to be so productive as well.
Sunderland! That has been a club once in EPL but always maintain almost relegation before it was relegated to Championship, later relegated to League 1. It is not doubtable that Arsenal will win Sunderland.

Chelsea versus Brentford will be a good match to see its outcome today. Liverpool versus Leicester City will also be fun. Tottenham versus West Ham is hard to predict of who will be the winner.
4259  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: When and how did you discover Bitcoin? on: December 22, 2021, 06:03:40 PM
So how about you, when and how did you discover bitcoin? What were your initial thoughts?  Did you think negatively of it at first discovery and change your mind, or did you always think it was a great idea?
I did not think negative about bitcoin when I knew about it because it was a great coin at that time, I knew bitcoin barely two years ago. I saw it online and I learn how to earn it which took me to this forum. I learn about how I can avoid scammers because I learned greediness is the easy means scammers are using to scam people of their bitcoin, I learned to avoid these dangerous people and how I can keep my bitcoin safe. I have never regretted that I know about bitcoin, it has been a blessing for me. I saw about bitcoin online and I remember all the begining absolutely.

There is nothing like  "earn free money or cryptocurrency anywhere". Money  can be earned  only by paying a price which could be.
Earning freely is even still better but there are ways scammers can use to later scam the person after not giving the person any money. But scammers also still do it in a way you will have to pay, which makes it not to be free. If the person pay, the person will be scammed. Example is the Elon Musk Saturday Night Life where a scammer in an ad people thought to be Elon Musk. The scammer displayed to people to pay an amount of doge and they will get it back in double. The scammer gained overe 5 million dollars worth of doge at the time.
