We've got more ODI matches in the upcoming months. By the ongoing month end Asian Cup gonna start and soon after that ODI World Cup gonna start. By this time Ab De Villiers have come up with the prediction on the teams to reach the semifinals. Among them are the host nation India, defending champion England along with Australia. On the fourth spot there is much expectations on Pakistan, and his choice is different. Ab De Villiers have given the fourth spot for his own Country South Africa. Till date South Africa used to be unlucky and lets see if something good happens in this ODI World Cup.

Thank-you Elon, I now can add more at a cheaper price! Blending down my avg cost!
Could be used as the right time to accumulate. For now the clear picture isn't come out. Different sources mention it to be the effect out of the Elon Musk act. We don't know the reality behind. However this crash is a much expected one prior to halving. To my understanding this crash could continue till the the halving days and bump from there.
443  Economy / Economics / Re: The gloomy light called subsidy. on: August 17, 2023, 11:38:35 PM
The big question is, can such a move save an economy that is already in shambles?

This is my point exactly. These people are only making matters worst for the citizens of their country. They won't put the money saved to good use. Instead, they just mismanaged these funds even further. The excuse that they can no longer pay for subsidies is trash. They are just looking for excuses to stop paying.

What's the point of stopping subsidies if everything in the country would become so expensive and increase inflation even further? Most of these politicians don't suffer the policies they make so they go about making any kind of policies they want.
Agreed, most of the politicians and the rich won't suffer any difficulty out of this. So, without proper understanding about the common man's life they just lift the subsidy provided to the suffering people. This shouldn't be done and surely those funds could've been redirected for something else that's unnecessary.

Really these subsidies play a major role in common people's life. In my region fishing is done and for the same fishermen were provided with subsidy on fuel for the boat, at times it looks like whats the need for subsidy. In reality the income varies depending on the season and by those days this used to be a big favour.
444  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What you will do? on: August 17, 2023, 11:33:09 PM
When my bets were on loss, the bet value keeps increasing. This is kind of thinking in my mind, need to recover what have been lost or end gambling for the day. In such a way to recover mere $50 I've lost $500 and all. This is really foolish and while gambling we don't understand. After the funds gets emptied, I used to think if I had stopped at the initial loss what could've been the result is just the loss of $50. One should not do this and this is really foolish attitude.
445  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Next Bitcoin Bull Run: Is It Tied to the Next Halving? on: August 17, 2023, 11:28:30 PM
We can't be sure of the next bull run. Right now the market have crashed. This is completely expected and we can expect this to continue for some time period before making a bounce in the market. For now the discussion will get started, what was the reason behind the crash of the market. For now Elon Musk owned SpaceX selling a huge part of bitcoin holding is termed to be the reason. Lets see what all the other news getting added in connection with the drop in the price of bitcoin. For all who have been waiting for buying could concentrate on the market to make an entry at the right time.
446  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Wrong way to accumulate. on: August 17, 2023, 11:23:02 PM
Until a person find himself to be wrong or right, there is nothing to correct. The person does it based on his understanding about the market. Every people try to have their own technique and strategy while accumulating bitcoin. The best being buy when the price is at the bottom. It is really tough and the same could make us miss opportunity to buy at the lowest price. For this reason it is good to spend specific amount regularly on buying bitcoin. Along with the same DCA is really good against buying as a whole.
447  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: If Bitcoin is centralized, will other cryptocurrencys survive ?. on: August 16, 2023, 11:55:13 PM
Bitcoin is decentralised and we've got more altcoins that are centralized. Those coins are successful in the market. Based on the decentralised functioning bitcoin is more popular, maybe this popularity could've been low as it is same as other currencies. Only the limited supply stands as the unique feature from the traditional currencies. The same could've made the usage come down.
448  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: August 16, 2023, 10:47:37 PM
Asia Cup is coming soon but not seeing any hype from the broadcasters, atm they are busy with useless bilateral series against Ireland. Guess we'll start seeing some promo during the Ireland series.

And 1 good news for Indian fans, there are some reports coming out that Rishab Pant played in a practice match, not sure about the field but he did come to bat.

The broadcasters doesn't seem happy about the tournament, and it is understandable. The schedule is messed up. Some of the matches are taking place in Pakistan, and some in Sri Lanka. And this just adds complexity to the logistics for broadcasters. On top of that, too many India vs Pakistan matches are scheduled to happen in the next few months (including one in the upcoming Asian Games cricket tournament). BTW, I don't know what India is going to achieve by playing against Ireland. It is going to be a completely one-sided series.
We can't expect this to be one-sided series. If it is an ODI series, then the matches could've been won by India, but with T20 matches played anything could happen. Even the Ireland players are good in chasing targets, against a team like India they'll give the best. T20 match results can change in no time and I believe Ireland will win atleast one match. This isn't going to be one-sided series.
449  Economy / Economics / Re: New Research found Work from home workers to be less productive on: August 15, 2023, 11:59:35 PM
I believe the researcher that make the statement that working from home will make people less efficient and productive than people who from their office make this statement base on the impression and statement once made by Elon Musk when he cancel the idea of Twitter employees working from home this is the exact statement he makes to be the reason why he cancels it.
Elon Musk have big thoughts and to execute those things isn't an easy thing. He saw the decline in the progress of the current X, and he made the claim over the employees. If he had analysed well about the reason behind the same, he could've understood that his activities were the reason behind and not the employees. In my view when people are provided with work from home they'll work in a much relaxed manner than having the pressure of reaching the office on time. Making arrangements for the lunch and all other additional tasks gets cut.
450  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin has nothing to do with crime on: August 14, 2023, 05:31:29 PM
During the starting days it is possible to see good volume of circulation happening around. Majority of the circulation is happened in supporting for gambling and other forms of investment. People always make choice on the amount invested, and the increased usage of bitcoin in gambling, money laundering and other few incidents made people consider bitcoin as a source for crime. This could change and now with the awareness more changes have happened.
451  Economy / Economics / Re: Is the market still profitable for new projects? on: August 14, 2023, 05:24:16 PM
I don't remember the year exactly, but we used to see good number of ico getting launched often. Nowadays those have decreased much and the new projects only valued if they have fulfilled big expectation of common people. It is always good to stand some time between us. I've seen good projects reaching the market. Everyone requests in a much simple manner and the luck also the deciding factor.
452  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can 1 satoshi be worth $1 in the future? on: August 14, 2023, 05:15:15 PM
I wait for the time when 1 Satoshi is equal to a dollar. I have a good number of Satoshis in my hardware wallet and it will be good to see how much it get during that time. We would see this happen. The awareness and adoption rate is on the increase and the demand is rising too. This is making the price climb steadily. Next year before and after the halving, the price would be totally different. We would get there. Impossible is nothing.
Satoshi to one dollar is not possible for now. There is a saying, anything beyond the limit goes unused. In such a way the price of bitcoin to touch a dollar is simply impossible. Maybe after few decades this could happen. Slowly there is good progress in terms of adoption, usability and acceptance. Lets see whether this is going to make good pumping.
453  Economy / Economics / Re: How can we improve our country's economy by on culture or ecosystem? on: August 14, 2023, 05:08:04 PM
It is possible, but there should be an independent organisation to work on it. The growth of the country relies on the diverse in culture and the government's act of producing more opportunities. Whether it is inflow or outflow of money, proper reason behind the same won't be having much impact on the price of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.
454  Economy / Economics / Re: All millions are from real estate. on: August 14, 2023, 04:59:28 PM
I feel like real estate investments are safest ones unless you are on earthquake zones. But eventually this totally depends on country. Some countries like Japan is small but population is decreasing. Demand for real estates are constantly increasing only in countries where they make lot of babies + high migration. If we consider environmental crises too Europe is very likely good market for future because of these.
This can be seen all around the world. When it comes to real estate it is much connected with the locality. I've seen campuses that are completely isolated and surrounding common floor pattern. Those regions market will be bargained stating the poor people around. Real estate is a big source of income, but the way things handled around makes it a question. Europe is a big market, however the trend swift happening is common.
455  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin as good store for value on: August 14, 2023, 04:45:32 PM
, and in my opinion most people investing in btc are just looking for profit.

yes, indeed the goal of most people buying bitcoin is to make a profit, but of course there are also people who buy btc with the aim of store of value, and I personally also buy btc with the aim of making a profit. if store value I think gold is suitable as a store of value, but if btc in the future the price rises of course storing value in btc will be more profitable compared to gold but yes in this case it's up to the person who buys and because everyone has different opinions .
99% of people into bitcoin is much focused on profit making. If this doesn't have the market volatility with which the earning is possible, then bitcoin couldn't have gained such popularity and usage around the world. Bitcoin have multiple usage access is the big success and very few understand well about the technology and goodness of bitcoin.

Bitcoin as a store of value is a good choice. When a person's investments were made in the form of bitcoin, this helps good at times of inflation. However the risk of holding is there, because we can't enjoy the growth anytime. We should have the mind to maintain patience to experience the best outcome.
456  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling should be play with care on: August 14, 2023, 04:20:16 PM
Yeah and that's why gambling isn't for everyone because not all people have a good financial condition and not all people can afford to lose for entertainment. There are so many poor people out there, they need to take care and understand how to increase their life quality through other jobs. But they choose to gamble their money to earn more instead of learning a new skill and put some dedication into it.
The problem here is that those who are struggling with finance are the ones mostly into gambling. The more often vist online or physical casino to seek a big win. That turns out to be once in a while and later on the fall into gambling addiction. Gambling is not an entertainment source for the financially low income people but it is a way to overcome their financial difficulty. Those who are economically good take it as way to entertain themselves once in a while. So e onlf those don't even indulge in gambling and find other means to entertain themselves.
Agreed, people who were already with financial difficulty considering gambling as entertainment isn't possible. Even if they start as a entertainment source, over time the thoughts will vary and some might make the right exit. Majority end up losing more and more in the event of trying to win big money. More care to be given when one is into gambling. For people who want to try their luck, the best choice is to trying the lotteries. This will limit the spending and helps with the betterment of gambling experience.
457  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Reckless gambling starts after a win round. on: August 14, 2023, 03:02:32 PM
Obviously addiction started after you win some good amount of money and it will make you to gamble more by wishing you will make more money. Even though win some of good amount money is the first reason why someone get addicted, but multiple lose streak is another important reason of addiction. Because if someone didn't suffer multiple lose streak, it's mean the gambler is winning isn't? Cheesy
Definitely, once you keep winning in gambling, you get addicted to the feeling of it, and it can be tempting to keep on going. But keep in your mind that your luck can change at any moment, or else you won't notice that you already lost all your winnings in one snap. Setting limits for ourselves and knowing when to walk away can help us avoid losing everything we've won. Gamble responsibly within your means and be mindful, to refrain from any difficult and stressful problem you may encounter once you get addicted to it. 
Agreed, when a gambler is on the winning side the mind will be thinking of having more. This could end with massive loss, and the luckiest will be able to be successful with the right exit. When someone is on the losing side, the mind always thinks of recovering what have been lost earlier. Everyone doesn't have the patience to set limits and spend accordingly. As suggested when you gamble within the limits, automatically the gambling activity will be interesting and there won't be much of impact felt as the loss/win doesn't affect life in any means.
458  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: August 14, 2023, 02:51:53 PM
Indian T20 team can never be called a bad team just because they are doing badly in this series in T20 but there were several wrong decisions for this team which Hardik Pandya could not control properly. In the T20 series, however, two or three senior players such as Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli were definitely needed. The advice and leadership of senior players is definitely better than the leadership of freshers and they know how to lead the team in times of danger. In yesterday's match as well, Hardik Pandya had several misjudgments in the bowling department which were enough to send India down in yesterday's match.
I don't think it's bad performance from young India team. This is best way to test a new team and India have got a new talent in the form of Talik Varma.
Finally something to cheer about for WI cricket which haven't won a series in recent years. Yesterday match was interrupted 3 times because of rain but still we have a full match.
It isn't a bar performance from young India team. It bounced after losing the first two matches, and brought back the hope of winning the series as the young Indian team won the 3rd & 4th matches. The 4th match was massive win and the same increased the expectation over the team. In the final match the performance from the Indian players were good, while the West Indies team performance is better than before.
The Indian youngsters had a poor performance as they lost their first and second matches. But when the third and fourth matches were won brilliantly by India's youngsters, there was hope that they might clinch the final. However, when the Indian youngsters entered the field for the fifth match, despite their good performance, they could improve on the batting performance. Meanwhile, West Indies bowled and batted well to put India under a lot of pressure in their bid to win the series. And India lost the series in the final match due to their poor performance and West Indies won the series brilliantly.

As India showed dominance in the third and fourth matches, I thought the team would be able to maintain this consistency in the last match as well. And India will win the third match as well. But this is not the case. In the third match we again saw India's poor batting. The team cannot play well. The performance of their batsmen in particular was erratic. Expectations were high from Jiaswal and Gill. They batted brilliantly in the fourth match. Also, Hardik Pandya, the most experienced batsman of the team, did not bat well. Apart from the batsmen, the performance of India's bowlers was also poor. Even if the bowlers could have bowled well, the match would have been competitive.
If Suryakumar Yadav's performance was not good in the last match of the series, then India would have collapsed. Because the opening batsmen were failed and the in the 5th, 6th and 7th positions were also had no good contribution, the team could not go ahead with the score. So there is the question why the Indian good bowlers couldn't stop West Indies? Even the most wicket takers could not keep a wicket to their name. For which 8 bowlers were used but none were successful. Due to which West Indies got an easy win against the powerhouse team of cricket world.
Just think of the previous match, similar scenario happened with the West Indies team. No player was able to add a wicket to their name and finally close to the winning Shubman Gill lost his wicket. There needs to be consistency in performance with both the teams. The same West Indies team defended India with the target score of 149 runs in the first match taking 9 wickets and the same team struggled to take a single wicket in the fourth T20 match. So we can't point bowlers as the reason for the loss of the final match. Compromised performance is the possible way to keep the winning.
459  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: List of casinos that allows "free spins and no deposit" on: August 13, 2023, 11:59:24 PM
I'm a bit confused. Are you referring to casinos that provide you with free spins and enable you to withdraw winnings from them without requiring any deposit? Or are you referring to free spins bonuses that have associated terms, such as a minimum deposit (anytime) and a (N)x wagering requirement for withdrawal eligibility? The first scenario would be challenging to come across. While it's possible it exists, it would likely be quite uncommon. I mean, isn't that almost too good to be true? It's important to be cautious.
Same confusion I had from this thread,because the OP had said like the free spins and enable us to withdraw the winnings.Then how the website will earn money without any deposit.By the game only the gambling website use to earn,if the 100 people play the game.Then the winning money will be made from the total deposit to the game.So the gambling website will earn the fee from every game and no need to scam others.But how your website with work,if the person win and withdraw full money without depositing the funds.If it's the real factor,I was very curious on this gambling site.
It is difficult to find such a casino because it usually has a minimum limit for us to deposit, and only then we can get free spins. We must meet the wagering requirements if we want to withdraw the money. And these wagering requirements may vary as they usually depend on the promotions launched by the casino. There may be casinos that provide free spins for free oms or their social media, but still, there are minimum wagering that we must meet before we can withdraw the winnings.
Free spins were kind of marketing tactics to attract new gamblers into the platform. Very few gets lucky to withdraw the winning whereas the majority loss the deposits. Better is to deposit and wager and never take in mind about the bonuses availed. When you think about the bonuses, automatically your wagering approach will vary and the same could end up losing. I don't remember the platform, but there we'll be able to claim the native tokens of the platform and we can withdraw it and convert to bitcoin or fiat, but those are mere amounts and not that worth it.

Binance Becomes the First Fully Licensed Crypto Exchange in El Salvador

The exchange has been granted both a Bitcoin Services Provider license and the first non-provisional Digital Assets Services Provider license, allowing it to offer tailor-made products and services in the country.


Source link: https://www.binance.com/en/blog/ecosystem/binance-becomes-the-first-fully-licensed-crypto-exchange-in-el-salvador-348306456147004721


This Milestone has gained a lot of space in the global market which is a step forward since the El Salvador license was obtained. And has approval in 18 countries around the world.

To me it looks like a great move. Some had mentioned that the usage of exchange were against the objective of Satoshi. Having a middleman is wrong, the same had been productive when people aren't good enough the make use of the choice available. Binance as the leader of cryptocurrency exchange used to create good awareness and the same could make the people of El Salvador learn more about Bitcoin. Already different educational programs were running within the country and now the presence of Binance will be an added support for them.

Earlier Binance did a Africa tour to promote bitcoin, something like that within El Salvador could create awareness and attract more people towards bitcoin usage.
