Goooaal. 1-0 to Belgium. It's quite impressive how Belgium set the tempo of their game throughout the first half and I'm quite satisfied with the performance they put in today in the match. And now Lukaku has listed his name on the scoreboard as well. France really should be in the match vs Italy if they don't improve their concentration in the second half.
2 goals have been scored not 1, or maybe you wanted to write 2. The first goal was scored by Y. Carrasco at 37th minutes, assisted by Kevin De Bruyne while the second got was scored by Romelu Lukaku and the assist was by Kevin De Bruyne also. The first half has ended and Belgium is leading by 2 goals already.

I don't think there will too many goals here either, I would favour the Under 2.5 goals as bettor here.
The first half is about to end, 2 goals scored already. Belgium is leading by 2 goals and I believe they have upper hand already if they play veey well also in the second half just like in the first half. What I am just happy about in the ongoing match is that the second goal was score by Romelu Lukaku which I was expecting he will score for his country. Maybe no goal will be scored in the second half but likely will not be like that or the chance that more goals will not be scored is very high.

The death is painful, that is what could likely be a result of gambling addiction, it is not good at all to be addicted to anything, gambling should be fun and low amount should be only used for it, betting more than your low amount budgeted for it is the beginning of gambling addiction. I hope there will be more ways people can be orientated before they start to gamble to help them not to be addicted.

But as previously stated in the news, the law does not include Horse Racing.
Horse racing is gambling, or if used as a form of gambling it should also be automatically prohibited in the state if the law is enforced.

they might restrict but outright banning might cause people to use underhanded methods to engage in it, what do you think ?
That is just it, if gambling is banned in the state in India, people in the state will go for underground ways to gamble, but this will really lessen people gambling in the state.

What country is this from? Not familiar with the name of the government so I can't gauge whether it's going to be an influential legislation.
I think it is clearly stated in the OP that it is a state in India.

sunday's result from many leagues were very strange and many favourites lost to underdogs. may be Benfica was too exited about victory over Barcelona in Champions League and underestimated Portimonense.
First of all, FC Barcelona is no more a good club as it was always be before Lionel Messi left for PSG, Barcelona was always on the first 3 before, now they are at number 9 of the table. But it was yet a surprise for me to see Benfica won Barcelona in UCL but such club like Benfica should not be taking simple as they can win unexpectedly. Likely Benfica won the weak Barcelona might make their training to decrease after also winning many matches in their league leading to too much confidence but low training. I noticed Portimonense is not really good at home but it is not joking with away matches, and it was another surprise to see Portimonense won Benfica 1 goal to nothing, but Benfica is still leading the table by 1 point as of recent.

Note: In SPOT trading, you can never lose your coin, the worth of your coin can only reduce but your coin remains to rise again in worth when the market goes green.
It is true, but if you do not sell your coin and still hold when the price is down. You will have a chance to see your coin price increase someday so you will be back to see the high price for your coin and make a profit. But many traders decide to cut loss their coin when the price is down with the hope that they can buy back at a lower price. I think that will depend on their strategy to be applied in the trading and every trader will have their own strategy to the current situation in the market.
We should always point out that there are specific coins that their price can decrease but holders should not cut loss because the price of the coins will increase back, coins like bitcoin, ethereum, binance coin and some other coin like that, but there are some coins that are shitcoins, their price will decrease and never increase back but dump more, some even later become dead coin. We should know the type of coins we are dealing with, not all coins are good to buy.

This is most newbie mistakes, because they buy and the price dump, they will decide to cut loss which suppose not to be, they cut lose and they lose money, what is funniest most is that some people will cut loss and the price will not decrease further but start to increase, or the coin will just take a little further decrease and start to increase, this happened to me many times when I was a newbie.

Italy lost but Italy's gameplay still looks good and I'm sure, if Bonucci doesn't get a red card or at least Italy is still playing with a complete squad playing with 11 players, I'm sure Italy can make the match draw or even win. Because even, despite playing with only 10 players, Italy was able to minimize the goal difference and in fact, Italy won in the number of shots on goal. The next match to get 3rd place, Italy will be against Belgium or France and I'm sure Italy will win there.
Both countries players played very well, but no matter what happened, there must be a winner. If L. Bonucci wasnt given yellow card two times that led to red card, the match might have been different, Italy tried as only 10 players was later playing against 11. But it is a match, nobody was favored right from the beginning while nobody was given red card for no reason, that was just the game. Also Spain scored first even before the red card was given and maintain the 1 lead until the first half ended as 2 goals. Italy planed well in the second half but it was a bit too late for the team to score second goal while it can even be Spain that might score if more time was given, they both tried and Spain really worth the final qualifier which will be played with either Belgium or France.

You say opposite to what you should say. Bitcoin marketcap is not big in 2013 but its dominance is bigger in 2013. Because there were less altcoins on market and altcoins did not have big total cap like now.

November 2013 is part of the bull market and the market in that month is not complete bull market.
I indicated that the marketcap in 2013 was not strong if compared to later, but supply reduction is not want that resulted to the price hike during the time, it was still increased marketcap, increase in adoption.


In July 20 2013, bitcoin marketcap was $1.05 billion. In September 18 2013, the marketcap was $1.55 billion. The marketcap increased to  $5.7 billion in November 17 at $475 price. I was not able to get the price and marketcap within that period accurately but we can see how the marketcap would have increased to over $10-$12 billion when the price of was above $1200 at the end of November in the year.

What I am saying is that bitcoin price also increased very well in 2013, the ROI was great.

2013 with 468% and 2017 with 226%. They are two big bull markets. Another good year is 2020 with 170% and a few other good years.
Bitcoin marketcap was not very strong like of 2021 in 2013 but there was a very big bull market within just November 2013, the month that should not be forgetten and known to people.

Quote
From Wikipedia

Price rose from $150 in October to $200 in November, reaching $1,242 on 29 November 2013. The lowest price since the 2012–2013 Cypriot financial crisis had been reached at 3:25 AM on 11 April. Price broke above the November 2013 high of $1,242 and then traded above $1,290.

2013 was a very year that bitcoin increased, it was below $112 in May 2013.

Storing all assets in a centralized exchange is not good, we must have a personal wallet, especially a hardware wallet which is certainly more secure such as safepal, ledger, trezor etc.
Storing on centralized exchanges gives no complete control, the best are noncustodial wallets, preferably hardware or any other offline wallets for amount that are huge. But the exchange was not blammed for the email, password and authenticator used by the affected users were all hacked, this makes it possible that their noncustodial wallet can also be hacked. The best advice in this is for people to avoid malware and protect their login details.

But if you have to store on a centralized exchange, choose a centralized exchange that is trusted and has many users like Binance which has the best level of security today.
Aside from trading, no one should think of storing coins on exchanges be it legit or not legit, noncustodial wallet is the best and making users to have complete control over own coins.
4610  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Futures trading help on: October 06, 2021, 07:15:35 AM
If you need help in futures trading, then you should not be futures trading, simple as that. The simplest fact is that if you do high leverage and the price goes against what direction you wagered on (and yes you wager this, not invest, it is total gambling) then you will be liquidated, which means all of your order will be gone and you will lose all of that money.
High leverage is highly risky, but your comment is opposed to 1x leverage which means no leverage, you will be able to go short or long but with your own funds. But leveraging is what is risky. But the reason many people are trading on future trading is because they want to leverage which is highly risky.
4611  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: {Warning}: Flubot Android Malware on: October 06, 2021, 05:47:12 AM
As the message says above, you will get a similar message saying that your android devices is infected and thus need to install an update and will tell you to enable installation of of unknown apps (red flag already). They it will redirect you to the installation page. And once you installed it, Flubot will take over your phone, getting access to your banking info and payment and crypto currency apps.

Countries being affected are: Spain and then expanded to hit Germany, Poland, Hungary, UK, Switzerland and Australia and Japan.
I have visited some sites that popped up such a message that my phone is at high level of risk that I must download an app to free my phone from the virus it is infected with. It was very annoying and I had to leave the site immediately when I know nothing happened to my phone because I am very conscious of the sites I visit and the files I am downloading, even my phone antivirus couldn't detect any malware when I have the updated version. I definitely knew it was fake but I do not know if it could be malware or not or means of advertising apps but it is just a simple ways many people are installing malware on their devices. We should know the site we are visiting, we should be very careful about ads popping up on our device, it is getting too much. We should be careful of any update, even if I want to update any app, I do it not by clicking on any message, I do it through long pressing the app itself that will take me to app store or I visit the right site directly.

This is pretty much same as those pop-ups you come across on pxxx websites, this pop-up is just bit specific.
It could be on any site or untrusted site not only on a specific site.

Spot trading is most secure and safety option for crypto currency trading, maximum people use spot option for crypto trading but i see many people use future trading option and at the end maximum people lost their fund. My clear opinion is that Spot option is better than Future trading.                         
Future trading can lead to maximum losses and it is the most risky depending on the leverage used, the higher leverage used the higher gain or losses can be but people can lose than gain which makes future trading the riskiest. But not that they are not secure or safe, they have the safety and security spot trading have, but maximum safety is on noncustodial wallet which you have completely control over.

The best way to raise which type of trading is suitable for you is to try both options and then decide.
Best to use low amount of money, $50 is not bad for spot trading while $20 is not bad for fututres. Also going above 5x leverage is gambling while 5x leverage is still if high risky that can easily result to liquidation.

4613  Economy / Speculation / Re: Welcome to Uptoberfest on: October 05, 2021, 03:12:11 PM
with the $50,000 resistance under a barrage of buy orders we could see this Uptoberfest end with a new ATH.
Let us hope so, let us expect increase in the price of bitcoin, but actually I have sold some of my bitcoin just because of the rslesistance at $50000. If the price reduce back to $40000, I will buy again, but if the price continue to increase, there is nothing bad about it, it will still favours us all to earn more.

Bitcoin price at $50000 has now been a debate by the analysts if the price will increase to ATH or not, it is very possible but $60000 will be another resistance if the price increase above $50000. That is the resistance at ATH, but we should first get above $50000 to know if the price will reach ATH but I am not very optimistic about the price reaching ATH but that does not mean it is not possible.
4614  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Basic Types of Trading on: October 05, 2021, 07:15:43 AM
There are basically two types of trading on binance generally (SPOT trading and FUTURES trading
On binance, there is margin trading, it is merged with spot but not the same as spot, it is even related more to future trading because you can leverage up to 10x using margin trading.

While in spot trading, you are not actually losing if you do not sell your coin, in the future and margin trading, you can lose all of your funds if you do not close your trade.
Also 1x long on future trading should not result to liquidation, what can result to liquidation is 1x short or increasing the leverage which incresses the risks, I will not encourage anyone to go for future and margin because they are very risky, million of dollar can easily be liquidated in just few minutes or hours.

For newbies, spot trading will be a better type of trading as they do not have to worry about the price and as long as they can hold the coin and not sell at a low price, they will have a chance to sell at the next high price.

While in spot trading, you are not actually losing if you do not sell your coin, in the future and margin trading, you can lose all of your funds if you do not close your trade.
It depends on the coin, I will say yes if you are talking about bitcoin, but many altcoins are shitcoins, their price will dump but will never rise back and remain shitcoins forever, newbies should know, learn and understand the coin he wants to trade with.

Many gambling sites offer their users various bonuses at registration, so if one person creates several accounts at such a site, he abuses the advertising campaign carried out to attract new users. Obviously, this is a deception of a gambling site in order to increase the chances of winning without attracting new users. Therefore, I would advise against abusing promotions on gambling sites as there is a high probability of detecting abuse and banning your accounts.
I have never thought of this before until you posted about it now, all I was thinking before is that multiple gambling users accounts is to discourage money laundering but you are not wrong at all that many people will make use of welcome bonus opportunity to have more accounts so that they can have more means to earn the bonuses, humans are very greedy but I have never thought of this before to cheat, now I have only one account on each site when I know that is always included in their terms and conditions, even if not included, I still only got only one account which is more than enough for me.

Sometimes a casino is also partly to blame. Most often casino sites can detect multi-accounts and other violations. But the problem is that they don't flag it. They don't even warn the gambler that creating a second account is a violation of their terms and conditions.
Most casinos hide behind their Terms of Service. They know that players don't read them, but they really should. It's your responsibility to know what's written in the TOS, especially the parts about multi-accounting, VPN usage, restricted territories, and even the restrictions that certain game providers place for particular locations.   

But majority of the casinos couldn't care less about these violations. They would only act on it when a jackpot or a big win happens. That's the time they would inform the player that he does not qualify for the prize because of the violations.
If you win, that's when they will do a proper security audit of your account. While you are depositing money and losing, very few casinos will have a problem with that.
I have four accounts in the first fiat based gambling site Ilthat I registered back in 2014, I later opened the fourth one which is my main account up till this day, I have no motive of money laundering or cheating bonuses, it is not what I have even done before while not really considering bonuses. I did not read the terms and conditions until like 2 years that I opened the account when I was not busy at all one day and having a boring time which makes it came to my mind to read, all other accounts are now in everlasting disuse whole only one main account I have now per each gambling site. Terms and conditions are too long for many people to read, but it is the most important thing for beginners to read for not to fall into centralized site traps.
4616  Other / Off-topic / Re: What do you think about this? on: October 04, 2021, 05:15:50 PM
What do you think? Is it related to morale, ethics or what is your opinion?
The reason why gambling companies only make it in their terms and conditions for users to make use of only one account is because of money laundering policies, some users can try to make use of two or three or more accounts for money laundering purposes. But to be fear enough. I do not see anything wrong about this at all.

But I only noticed this much in fiat based gambling while if proven it is the same account, the accounts can be merged into one if nothing like criminal activities is involved in any of the accounts.

Can Coinomi support all coins that the Trust Wallet supports?
Coinomi support very many cryptocurrencies but I think trust wallet support few more.

The Trust Wallet need KYC?
It is noncustodial, it needs no kyc.

Can you look at https://www.coinomi.com/en/#features (https://www.coinomi.com/en/#features)? The Zero fees feature is interested. Is it for exchanging coins too?
What zero fee feature? No wallet that is noncustodial that will have fee feature, only fee involved are transaction fee which are paid to miners. The exchange feature is third party, you can also exchange on trust wallet.

Brentford had their 3rd winning match yesterday against West Ham. After losing the match in the first half, West Ham managed to equalize the game in the 80 minutes, only for Wissa to score a wonderful goal 14 minutes later, and the match ended in victory to Brentford.
It wasn't easy, I thought the game would ended draw, but Brentford managed to score in few extra time after 90 minutes. I did not predict the match but if I was to predict it, West Ham eally disappointed me.

Brentford, have been performing greatly since they got promoted to Premier League, I have been observing them lately. However they have a tough match ahead, they will be playing an away match against Chelsea in their next match.
That will be another 3 points for Chelsea.

The OP has researched on faucet and has a good definition about faucet on his post, but I wonder why still suggesting it to -Newbies- I have heard people thinking crypto-currency is a scam after accumulating coins from faucet that was miserable/small and they restricted them from withdrawing it.
If a legit site is used, there should not be a problem but there are some sites that might be fake, I did not go more into faucet in the past, but I know some cloud mining are fake, also very possible there are fake faucets, some might be used to scam newbies very possible because it it is newbies that make use of faucets, but later got discouraged after seeing it as a waste of time.

And I would not think the love for free Bitcoin like faucet, is what encourages Ponzi schemes in  crypto-currency, scam give away.
I do not think so too, such scam like this is just because newbies do not know much about crypto an no nothing about scam yet, greed is the other reason people get successfully scammed.

It is important to keep in mind that a lot of the popular faucets are not really faucets at all but are just gambling websites offering a chance to win free Bitcoin.
Just like freebitco which is recommendable, not for the faucet because faucet is just a waste of time but for gambling and having good reputation.

Both teams played very beautiful football, IMHO, this is one of the best, if not the best game i have seen this season, very exciting back to back football. Mo salah has been superb this season, and it is just very unfortunate that that his goal did not give Liverpool the win. If Manchester city can sign someone that can convert opportunities better in front of goal like Haaland next summer, the team will do better than they are already
I predicted both team to score and also over 2.5, the first half left me doubt and thought of how a match I thought would have been of goals wanted to end up with little goals or not goal but the second half was very different.

Not only Mohamed Salah that scored, he only scored the second goal for Liverpool, the first goal was scored by Sadio Mane, do not make it seem like it is only Mohamed Salah that scored for Liverpool.

Now Chelsea is in the first position, too early to know who will win the league this season but Chelsea being in the first position leaves me very happy when Liverpool drew with Manchester City.
