According to Napoleon, wars require just three things: "money, money and money". - this is probably not a true quote. "The sinews of war are infinite money" - this is attributed to Cicero and is probably true, " The first and most imperative necessity in war is money" - from Ida Turbel.... well I am sure you get the idea.
My question to the forum is how does Putin intend to make the war of aggression against Ukraine be eventually profitable?
War of course destroys everything for both victors and losers, wars that last long of course will cost a lot of money and energy, but I think some countries don't care how much money they have spent on war as long as they can win, and are able to show world if they are a strong country and should be feared by other countries. |

Until now, other countries have continued to impose sanctions and condemn what Russia has done, but until now I have never heard of a neutral country suggesting that this issue should be resolved through a dialogue to find solutions to existing problems, as described above what you say is probably almost the same as what CZ Binance said if crypto is not an effective tool to help Russia get out of its current economic problems, but it is enough to wait for how Putin makes decisions in stabilizing their economy in the future.
Only just a talk or a dialogue to fix the problem? I don't think this will work easily because of what Russia did to Ukraine. They have started a war and created damages to the opposing country, this should deserve a proper punishment but a sanction can be enough already for Russia to realize their mistakes, or shall I say Putin only? War will never end if both countries continue to put their egos forward now, president putin and zelensky should be able to think clearly for the good of both countries, but in this case I think the president of ukraine is too stubborn by continuing to challenge russia and even recently me hearing if Zelensky said the Russian nuclear strike was just bullshit, wouldn't that just heat things up even more? As president, Zelensky should have been wiser and even if he apologized to putin I don't think his pride would ever fall. |

The decentralized nature of crypto or bitcoin allows openness in every transaction so that every transaction history will be public which makes it possible to track transactions that occur, but to find out who the original owner of the wallet address is, that is impossible, even though the history of transactions that have occurred is visible to everyone , but due to its very nature pseudo-anonymity the privacy of the original owner will always be maintained, unless the original owner publishes the wallet address to his website and personal social media. |

With the defeat of PSG, it is easy to understand that not everything can be achieved with money alone. And it turns out that PSG has a lot of problems with match strategy. They need to change coaches. Pochettino is still a kid to Carlo Ancelotti or Guardiola's match strategy. No matter how well PSG form the squad, they will not be able to win the Champions League without an experienced coach. So hire an experienced coach first and then invest the money.
I agree with you. Despite having a great squad, PSG lost only because of poor match tactics. And with such a weak match strategy they have been showing from the start of the season. We did not see any improvement in them. Although I'm not a fan of Real Madrid, I would say that Benzema's performance at the age of 34, is truly impressive. He has scored three goals by fooling the defenders of the team like PSG. I thought that match would be the end of madrid in the champions league this season after mbappe scored a goal in the 38th minute, but donnaruma mistake was the start of madrid revival in making an incredible comeback, madrid victory showed the experience and mentality of the winner will determine the final result amatch, congratulations to Madrid for being able to destroy one of the best teams in the world today. |

Real Madrid 1 Vs 1 PSG

Few seasons back we have some good game from Monaco but sadly now they are also struggling badly and have very hard time for qualifying into European cup for next season with Lille who won last season title now also struggling very badly recently they have some better results but still not good enough.
Monaco was a well-respected team in France a few seasons ago, and even in the 2016/17 season Monaco managed to challenge for the Ligue 1 title, but their habit of constantly selling off their star players made Monaco today like a mediocre team that only complements Ligue 1, If Monaco is able to retain talented players like Mappe, Rodriguez, Youri Tielemans and Fabinho, of course, Monaco will become PSG current competitor team in Ligue 1. |

Barcelona and Galatasaray will be one of the matches that are quite awaited in the opening leg 1 of the last 16 tomorrow, tomorrow's match in my opinion will be a fierce match especially since both teams are both aiming for a big win to secure their position in the second leg later, so far both teams have met 8 times, with 5 wins for Barcelona, Galatasaray managed 1 time win and 2 matches ended in a draw, from head to head it looks like Barcelona are the favorites to win, but Galatasaray also cannot be underestimated in the match later because often Galatasaray are able to surprise his opponents in a match.

The most important thing when recommending bitcoin is to say that bitcoin is a very risky investment, if we have made them understand about the risks then we will not have a burden when after they buy and the price drops so that they lose, most people just say that bitcoin is very profitable so no care about risk.
Explaining in detail the benefits and risks that can be obtained in investing in bitcoin is the first step we must take when we invite others to invest, besides that at least we can say that bitcoin or crypto are assets that have a fairly high risk, so when he is ready to invest of course he is also prepared with all the risks that might occur, and most importantly never force others to follow us to invest in bitcoin because we will be blamed if he gets a loss later. |

Currently, Russia seems to be confined in its own country, it is difficult to move abroad, even the banks are closed with a heavy ban. therefore I think cryptocurrency will be a solution for that country, because there is no definite regulation from countries in the world. but i think putin has considered well what to do to deal with the larger number of NATO members
We are too worried about the state of the russian economy at the moment but they seem to be doing pretty well in the face of the existing sanctions, and there is not even a sign that russia is going to stop the war just because they have been locked up by nato sanctions at the moment, after all it looks like russia has an alternative in counter existing sanctions by lobbying countries that are anti-nato today to establish economic cooperation. |

I believe the players of Red Bull Salzburg have already done their best even though they were thrashed by the scoreline of 7-1 by Bayern Munich yesterday, it was always not an easy task for any teams to beat Bayern Munich at the stadium of Allianz Arena. Manchester City had already scored 5 goals against Sporting Lisbon at the first leg between these two teams, I guess Manchester City will be able to beat Sporting Lisbon again today but this will be a low scoring match at the final whistle.
The comparison of the quality of the squad is a very clear difference that can be seen in that match, Bayern Munich which is filled with the best and very experienced players of course cannot be matched by Salzburg players, it seems that losing 7-1 is not something that Salzburg players should regret because they have tried their best, but it is clear that Bayern Munich is no match for them in the match. Manchester city has a 5 goal lead and it looks like today they will have an easy game and I'm sure that guardiola will field a second tier squad today to face sporting lisbon. |

Currently the competition in maintaining the top 4 positions is getting very tight, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, which at the beginning of the season left quite far from the Champions League zone, it turns out that they are now able to occupy positions 3 and 4, looking at the remaining matches that are owned by Sevilla, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, it looks like an opportunity barcelona to shift sevilla from position 2 is still wide open if barcelona are able to maintain their game performance, but in my opinion the current four teams are the ideal team to penetrate the champions league next season and I hope there will be no change in position until the end of the season.
It is always good to not count Barcelona out of any season. Sure they had a terrible season and they still have a lot of debts they need to pay. It will not be easy for them to pay that back and it is going to take a lot of time for it to go away, which means Barcelona will always be in financial trouble. Will they care? Will they do like some belt tightening thing or will they end up spending more and more and see what happens? I really do not know, maybe they will do one or the other, who knows? However, meanwhile they will end up getting playerso n loan, cheap players, older players, free transfers and all that to make their team as better as it could get, that is guaranteed. Finance is still the main problem for barcelona at the moment, so it is very difficult to predict what will happen in future of barcelona, indeed now barcelona is starting to look better by relying on a few free and old players to face the rest of the season, but if barcelona don't make changes to the next season will certainly make it difficult for them to compete in the league let alone the champions league. |

If you look at the remaining matches in the Premier League, then I assume Manchester City has a greater chance of getting the title. And there is one more key, namely, the match between Manchester City vs Liverpool. This could be a crucial match for both teams, if Manchester City win, it is certain that they will come out as champions.
Manchester city tend to face more teams that are outside the top 5 in their remaining matches this season, of course that makes them more favorites to win in some games, but of course maybe they will slip up in one or two games later, but chance Liverpool to stay on track to championship or not is very much determined in the match between Manchester City and Liverpool, if Manchester City wins in that match, Liverpool will certainly be out of the championship path and vice versa. |

In the January transfer window,Arsenal were not able to get any player despite their attempts to sign a prolific goal scorer in the likes of Alexandre Isak or the Fiorentina striker that has now moved to Juventus,all their attempts were not successful,therefore they might be expecting much players in by the summer transfer window.
Getting a prolific goal scorer will be the target,because Lacazette will be leaving,and Eddie Nketia will also be leaving because their contract expires in the summer.But I guess Martinelli will be given a major role to play next season,he might lead the attack for Arsenal,and I believe he will do well in that position because he is a pacy player.
I think Alexander Isak is very suitable for Arsenal, and this is a good addition to Arsenal's striker, And hopefully Arsenal can do better than this season. by looking at the second half of the season Arsenal is so sure to keep competing in the top 4. Slowly Arsenal became a respected team this season they were very consistent after entering the second half of this season. ink is proven by their position on the English league standings, they are slowly moving up to the top 4 positions, it could even be that they will shift Chelsea's position in the top 3. this is an achievement in itself for Arsenal because they were unable to recruit new players in January. Some of the attacking players targeted by Arsenal in the January transfers and then prefer to stay at their current club and there are also those who prefer to other teams who are considered more likely to get trophies like Vlanhovic, if you look at the reasons for the player's refusal to join Arsenal, I think it's quite reasonable because this season Arsenal is a team that is absent from European competition, thus making many players reluctant to join Arsenal, but if Arsenal were able to qualify for the Champions League next season, of course it would be an attraction for players to join with arsenal. |

Sanctions between the parties only increase tensions, and there will be no so-called solution if things continue as they are. It is possible that BTC is an alternative to Russia's economic sanctions, but the reality is that it cannot be effective because the economic problems of a country are very large. Although it is undesirable, I think the war between Russia and Ukraine will affect the economy for at least the next 2–5 years.
Until now, other countries have continued to impose sanctions and condemn what Russia has done, but until now I have never heard of a neutral country suggesting that this issue should be resolved through a dialogue to find solutions to existing problems, as described above what you say is probably almost the same as what CZ Binance said if crypto is not an effective tool to help Russia get out of its current economic problems, but it is enough to wait for how Putin makes decisions in stabilizing their economy in the future. |

Congrats for Bayern they were humilliated Salzburg with big score however upcoming match Madrid vs PSG seems win with 2 goals margin will mandatory for Madrid if want to qualified to the next round although it not impossible but it is hard to Madrid to do so especially PSG had good records during play at Madrid home ground that the latest is they can draw 2-2 on 2019 and i was thinking PSG will not too playing attacking because draw results is enough for them
Bayern Munich managed to beat Salzburg with a fairly large score and this shows that Bayern Munich has not lost its magic in the Champions League. The match was quite tough and decisive for Madrid today, although playing at home, Madrid should be wary of PSG impressive game by doubling the deadly trident in their attack line. |

^ PSG is up by one goal at home vs Real Madrid. Second leg should be a tough one for PSG as they're playing at Real's home turf. Obv they'll def try getting at least two in and get to the next round. So I think playing thr goals market could be good here. Real Madrid team total over 1.5 goals at 1.97? What do you guys think?  Anyway, made a small bet on Liverpool -1 at 1.91. Pretty safe bet with somewhat value considering Liverpool's home from has been very good overall. Soon two big and decisive matches will begin, so far only liverpool which in my opinion has a big enough chance to qualify for the next round because they get a 0-2 advantage in the first leg, while for bayern munchen it seems their have to work quite hard today to secure one of the tickets for the next round, although salzburg is not the favorite team today but we must not ignore the surprise factor that may and often occurs in the champions league so far. |

Currently the competition in maintaining the top 4 positions is getting very tight, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, which at the beginning of the season left quite far from the Champions League zone, it turns out that they are now able to occupy positions 3 and 4, looking at the remaining matches that are owned by Sevilla, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, it looks like an opportunity barcelona to shift sevilla from position 2 is still wide open if barcelona are able to maintain their game performance, but in my opinion the current four teams are the ideal team to penetrate the champions league next season and I hope there will be no change in position until the end of the season.
1. Real Madrid 2. Sevilla 3. Barcelona 4. Atletico madrid That's the position of the top 4 La Liga standings until week 27. This position can still change because La Liga still has 11 games left. Real Madrid, Sevilla, Barcelona and Atletico madrid are very favorites to enter the Champions League a next season, because they are teams that can compete in European competitions. Real Betis can still provide a surprise in their hunt for Champions League tickets, because they are only 2 points behind Atletico Madrid who is in 4th position. In my opinion, the hunt for Champions League tickets is ranked 3, 4, 5 and 6, because their points acquisition is very close. If one team loses points in several matches played, it will be absent from the UCL stage a next season. Yes of course changes will be possible because currently La Liga still has 11 games left, Atletico madrid and barcelona both have 48 points of course they can still be shifted by Real Betis or even Sociedad, but in this case I think the position of athletico may be more At risk compared to Barcelona, which has only played 26 matches, Atletico and Barcelona are required to maintain their performance for the rest of the season if they don't want to be replaced by other teams later. but to be honest the position of the four teams now is more interesting for me to see them in the champions league, because if a team like Real Betis can playing in the champions league next season, I doubt if they will be able to show their best performance in the number 1 European football competition. |

it's a very very difficult match .. honestly Real Madrid disappointed me a bit in the first match, let's hope they want to make up for it and take revenge for the defeat, so it would be a really good match and a good fight!
If want to qualify for the quarter-finals of course today the madrid players must be able to do everything they can to face PSG, even though they play at the bernabeu but I think Madrid have a lot of pressure right now to win or at least be able to equalize the score in the match later, if they play like they did in the In the first leg, of course, it is impossible for Madrid to beat PSG I think, especially since some of Madrid core players will be absent in the match, such as Casemiro, Mendy and Kroos. But indeed the second leg match between madrid and PSG really deserves to be the main match today, and we should wait whether Ancelloti, who is an experienced coach in the champions league, will apply a different strategy to beat PSG today? |

Bitcoin which has been considered to be a money laundering tool by many countries, is now able to provide a very significant role for Ukraine in helping their resistance, now bitcoin and other crypto are an alternative for the Ukrainian government in accepting any donations from all over the world quickly and if the ukraine government expected donations in the form of fiat money of course it would consume a lot of time and resources right now, besides that now the world community, especially ukraine, can use bitcoin as a hedging asset during a crisis other than gold to secure their wealth .
