PSG's Adrien Rabiot seems devastated.  Roll Eyes
This is right after the game, this idiot is celebrating :

What a fucked up team !

Well, this is just embarrassing. He should be fined and benched for many games, maybe till the end of the season.
He is young and this is the reason that he is not cautious with this moves. This show that they only care about getting their money and not focusing on any goals that would make them more popular and get a transfer in a better European club.

Arsenal are just so impossible, blowing every opportunity at the slightest chance they get, now they could get eliminated in the tournament with such a dismal display of football. Even if eventually they get to advance to the next, I'm not sure they'd go too far if they keep up with this kind of mediocre performance.


And imagine that Arsenal had the best odds to win the Europa League. After this humiliating defeat from Rennes I don't think that they will be able to compete for the qualification to the next stage.
I am happy to see Napoli and Chelsea winning easily, and I hope that both team will reach the finals. It will be an interesting match to see as the quality of the teams is similar to Champions League teams.
4603  Economy / Speculation / Re: Do you have a prediction? on: March 07, 2019, 06:58:30 PM
There are lots of signals that 2019 will be THE year in which institutional money finally will enter the #cryptocurrency market. This is one of the cryptocurrency predictions for 2019 that will be a game changer for…

There is not any clear indication that this year we will do any better than in 2018.
They just make this assumption because they think that we cannot do any worse than we did before. I think that we will see some ups and downs but I truly believe that the price of the bitcoin has started becoming stable.

I thought that San Marino's economy is very very strongly correlated with Italy's. Doesn't that mean that if San Marino starts to test Blockchain and cryptocurrencies that Italy does the same? If this is true, then it is a huge step towards mass adoption because Italy is a core member of the European Union with a huge influence in other countries.
4605  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Ever stopped or removed from casino on: March 07, 2019, 06:37:12 PM
Yeah i was denied once in casino,when i was working as field supervisor wearing cool attire is my mostly outfit and so when a friend first introduced gambling in Casino(things that i never been since i am from religious family,and i only grownup with local gambling style)so we decided to meet halfway that brings to the casino lounge but when I arrive and try to enter,those front guard stopped me and tell me to wear atleast long pants so the ending,i go to a nearest Mall to buy a pants so i could enter lol

I didn't expect such an ending lol!
Someone who reads this story may say that you are a gambling addict. If I were you and if the guard was refusing to let me enter the casino I would just leave and never come back. They will be the ones that will lose getting my money so it is their loss!
4606  Economy / Speculation / Re: If bitcoin mining will be based on POW+POS.. on: March 07, 2019, 03:27:28 PM

 - Now a days ASIC based mining is not feasible to every common people. We need industry scale of investments  to start. At the same time, if bitcoin mining is based on POS, I guess we may not afford to buy one FULL BITCOIN as only financial institutions or corporate may afford to buy that.

If bitcoin was based on POS, bitcoin might be having value by this time around $1M too but I am sure the basic infrastructure needed for a payment system would not have been developed as only very few people might have been involved into bitcoin related activities including adopting bitcoins just for store of value (the least application of bitcoins which is possible even for haters of bitcoins). This might be a reason why Mr.Satoshi have chosen POW. But, POW has its own cons like described above.


With your statement, it seems that you only care about the price of Bitcoin and you don't care about the ecosystem. POW gives a more decentralized feature to the bitcoin's chain rather than POS which is a more centralized consensus as only the "rich" will be able to proceed with the validation of blocks.

Your argument that ASIC based mining is not feasible to everyone is true and valid, but the same thing happens in a Proof-of-Stake consensus as the people who don't own a big stake, they can't perform mining activities.
4607  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The key reason for gambling on: March 07, 2019, 03:16:30 PM
With the hope of making some money from it but I know it is going to be very hard and may not even happen as well so I won't try too many times and also with more money that I can't afford to lose if anything went wrong.

At least it seems that you do not affect your financials when you gamble. You combine entertainment along with the benefit of making some money from it.
You should never try to risk more money in order to earn more because you will eventually lose them,
4608  Economy / Economics / Re: Blockchain or Business Model? on: March 07, 2019, 01:07:39 PM
I agree that many of the existing companies are not ready to adopt the blockchain technology. Maybe it is due to its early stage, maybe it is because there is not yet known to the entrepreneurs.

I hate to say though, that there are some CEOs that do not like the blockchain technology because they want corruption to their companies in order to manipulate numbers and present better results.
4609  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2016/17 on: March 07, 2019, 01:04:14 PM
it's no longer a reason, real Madrid has the worst period this season. lost several times at home and unable to defeat their closest rivals, eliminated from UCL was also the worst achievement. I think the Real Madrid squad is old-fashioned and useless. next season must immediately improve  Cheesy

You can't blame the squad that it is old-fashioned. The players are young and some of them are talented. However, it is not their fault. I think that some of them should not work there because they have a lack of skill and they cannot play at so high level and compete in Champions League and La Liga.
I hate saying that because teams like Real are usually complete, but at the next transfer window, they need to sign some new players.
4610  Economy / Economics / Re: Who is really hopeful about the future of Bitcoin and why? on: March 07, 2019, 12:56:20 PM
I am included, because of this bitcoin world bounty campaign exists, and I am very dependent on work and income from bounty campaigns. I hope it will always be better.

As the ecosystem grows and gets more popular to the real world, bounty campaigns and marketing is going to change from the structure that you have seen till now.
I would advise you to try and not be so dependent on bounty campaigns as a source of income. It is a good source but I think that it will be eliminated in the future.

Bitcoin's future is bright and innovative changes are about to come as we evolve.
4611  Economy / Economics / Re: Reason of Next Financial Crisis on: March 07, 2019, 12:51:19 PM
The world economy moves in a cycle.
We have left a huge huge period of economic growth where interests are getting lower and lower and Bonds and stocks more credible. Because people are too greedy, when they are into this situation they overdo it and eventually, we have an increase in the debt around the world. This is the most crucial reason for the next financial crisis in my opinion.
4612  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2018-2019 on: March 07, 2019, 12:25:13 PM
I am happy for Manchester United though but in Champions League before usually the favourite team in quarter finals did win. Now is not the same anymore.

No one could ever predict that Ajax and Manchester United will make it to the quarterfinals.
On the one hand, it is good to see new teams (that haven't made it to this phase during the last years) but on the other side, it is very sad to see the strong teams not making to it. PSG was a team that I predicted that it can reach the final this year as Mbappe had a great performance. They can try next season now!
4613  Economy / Speculation / Re: CRYPTOS TO THE MOON???? on: March 06, 2019, 10:43:28 AM
This time no miracle's will be happening, yes bitcoin was over the moon in 2017 but unfortunately the price of bitcoin has gone low due to the manipulations as well as the supply and demand as suppose to be a hectic task. I hope things will turn around back in a real quick time and BTC will be over the moon once again.

The prices that Bitcoin hit in late 2017 were clearly due to market manipulation and it can be described as a bubble.
Now we are in a normal market with the prices being indicative of the current situation of the market. I don't know why people are crazy about seeing the prices going up and they pray every day for a bull market to come.
4614  Economy / Speculation / Re: Deutsche Bank (Hitler and Trumps Bankers) Raid a Case for Bitcoin? on: March 06, 2019, 10:27:34 AM
Bankers are the bigger criminals in our society.
They can do everything that they can in order to get money. They don't have dignity and they are the biggest thread for the economic gaps between classes. Deutsche Bank is involved in many criminal cases and I think that more are about to come when Bitcoin is going to be omnipresent, bringing a new economic ecosystem.
4615  Economy / Economics / Re: Volkswagen Bets $50 Billion on Electric Future but Tesla Isn’t Sweating on: March 06, 2019, 10:23:44 AM
Both groups have different target markets, and probably this is the reason why Tesla is not sweating. Also, Tesla moves towards a general innovation model that you can do anything with your car (I mean that you will not have it just to transport from one place to another).

At least at this stage, Volkswagen cannot compete with Tesla. Volkswagen has a solid European market to move around, where Tesla motors are not so familiar to the market, and Tesla can stick to the Americas so it is a win-win for both companies.

Tom Lee: Bitcoin Will End 2019 On A High Note, Strikingly Much Higher Than $3,900

The crypto market has suffered heavily over the last year, but things seem to have started looking up. Bitcoin’s price is finally rising to break the $4k resistance level, a development that many analysts say could set the crypto on course to a much higher price.

As expected, the big wigs of the crypto space have noticed the positive development, and one of these people is Tom Lee. Tom is the CEO of Fundstrat Global Advisors, and he has always been bullish about Bitcoin even during its most tumultuous days over the past year.

Bitcoin To Soar Higher

Speaking during an interview at the Blockchain Economy Istanbul Summit, Lee disclosed his optimism about the future of Bitcoin. Tom was speaking just as Bitcoin reached $3,900. According to him, the $3,900 price is just a start and Bitcoin is headed for a much higher price by the end of the year.

According to Tom, the current rise of the global markets, especially the stock market, is bound to affect Bitcoin positively. Also, the fact that the dollar is stable is good news for the Bitcoin market.

Bitcoin Doesn’t Need An ETF To Do Well This Year

Commenting on the issue of the anticipated approval of a Bitcoin ETF, Tom had a rather radical opinion. In his view, a Bitcoin ETF isn’t likely to be approved in 2019. He said that although an ETF would be good for Bitcoin, the crypto doesn’t really need an ETF to succeed in the market.

At the moment, there are two ETF applications pending review by the SEC- one by the NYSE, and another by CBOE. Over the last few months, various SEC committee members have shown some level of acceptance for the crypto industry, a development that some people have interpreted to mean that an ETF could be approved soon.

Economic Recession Could Favor Cryptos

At a time when the world economy is staring at a recession, Tom Lee thinks that scenario could actually work in Bitcoin’s advantage. In his opinion, a recession could lead more people to get interested in cryptocurrencies, a move that would increase demand and ultimately drive up the price. However, in terms of the trading volume, Tom Lee thinks that there won’t be much change.

I would agree with Tom Lee, that this year may end up with high prices of the bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies because I expect a global economic downturn as Lee mentioned. We surpassed a big period of economic growth with low interest rates and as we know this situations go up and down like a cycle.
4617  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2018-2019 on: March 06, 2019, 09:26:44 AM
Madrid did the funniest thing in the history of the team this season. slaughtered by the Ajax 1-4 team at the santiago bernabeu is something that cannot be forgotten along with 3 titles in a row. the coach is very funny, the players are very funny, the manager is also funny, if it goes on like this, madrid will be relegated this season  Cheesy

I was expecting a more interesting game in Germany between Dortmund and Tottenham, but Ajax surprised me positively!
Real Madrid is a disaster this year... Ronaldo and Zidane are sitting at a corner and laughing at them for sure. The president of Real should sack Solari. This guy has nothing to do with coaching. I wonder why they hired him in the first place.
4618  Economy / Economics / Re: Does Pump is Coming on: March 05, 2019, 08:23:19 PM
There is interesting article on http://bitcoingape.com/chinese-miners-to-activate-over-1-million-asics-ahead-of-2020s-halving/

It looks like miners from China what has to suspend his operation are coming back because of 2020 halving
optimistic news if real

Everyone should stop praying and speculating about a Pump or a bull market. Instead, everyone should try and give their best in making this Pump to come. For example, by trying to bring more people to the cryptocurrency ecosystem or increase the mass adoption of the blockchain projects. I am fed up with posts that just speculating a pump without real evidence.
4619  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2019-3-2]Cryptopia Crypto Exchange Lost 9.4% of its Holdings to Hackers on: March 05, 2019, 07:43:52 PM

They should mention which coins and tokens are lost from the users, I still have my ADA and NEM on the orders before they close the exchange, so I wouldn't assume they are all gone too if they just declare which cryptocurrencies are affected. I'd be looking forward to seeing my funds when they get back online.

I read somewhere that the coins that hackers managed to stole were Ether and ERC20 tokens. So, I think that the tokens that are built on the Ethereum platform had that problem.
I think you are safe with your ADA and NEM coins. They should be untouched into your wallet.
4620  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2019-02-28]Japan’s Issue Of Money Laundering Linked To Cryptocurrency on: March 05, 2019, 07:22:52 PM
It seems like this incident happened on purpose in a country that is in favor of cryptocurrencies, which is Japan. Banks and institutions don't like the crypto ecosystem where money flows freely and they try to release bad news in order to affect the decentralized ecosystem negatively.
