[....]
still Leipzig were not able to convert any goal after their first half goal was cancelled and ruled out for off side.
I agree that Leipzig failed to capitalized on the Real Madrid's injury woes. There are even accusations of robbing or Madrid getting help from the referee that surfaced during and after the game hehe. It was only natural that fans of the losing team get mad but I think it was the right call.

Although Real Madrid won this match, I am not happy with Real Madrid's victory. Real Madrid were a strong team but managed to win by just one goal. I expected Real Madrid to win by a bigger margin but it was a very competitive game until half time. Leipzig attacked a lot, with the Leipzig team hitting the goal post with 14 and Real Madrid with 15.


It could be two goals if vini's shoot was not miss and we are still far away from that momentum. I think that if we will be seeing real madrid to perform far better in santiago bernabeu. it's gonna be a very hard test for leipzig. Real madrid was not even conceded a single goal when it was playing away. If you were watching the game and you will be aware about how real madrid was trying so hard to beat it. I think that it doesn't even matter how big the score as long as real madrid won the game and that's enough. There will be some important matches to happen soon. madrid is just need to wait leipzig to go to the santiago bernabeu. You will be seeing madrid to win with huge margins.
Things are going very good for real madrid right now. Real madrid can still win the game aaginst leipzig away is good enough. Why do we need to expect more if real madrid has already achieved what we wanted? it doesn't even make sense to hear that. I think that rela madrid will be going it even better.
The second leg if gonna happen at home for madrid. it's time for us to make sure we can get madrid to go to the next round. Leipzig will be losing against madrid soon.

creative thinking combined with sufficient funding will opens up great opportunity to accumulate wealth, those startups that amount to billions today, must be starting from bottom, even though their financial condition might be good enough since as i've seen many startup founders are coming from rich people. doesn't necessarily they didn't face their share of difficulties.
for many of us that don't have sufficient capital, the only way is to think creatively harder than anyone else, because thats the only way to attract potential investors into getting interested into our project.
thats the only way for us to strive within this highly competitive worlds because everyone else is also trying hard thinking creatively to make opportunity for themselves.
if there exist 1 problem there is probably thousand of people already thinking of solving it.

I think Blast and zksync could be great, but the thing is that its not exactly the same L1 project like celestia if im not mistaken its L2 which means just side chain for ethereum, probably couldn't reach that much gain like tia.
but im betting my money big time Eigenlayer though, staked my eth with puffer finance also, i got both points eigenpoint and pufferpoint its gonna be great hitting two bird with one stone.
aside from that i will be waiting for Taiko listing maybe it will turn out like zeta chain where there was no fuss around the project or at least the fuss was minimal but when it got listing it suddenly went up really high even until today it still retain its value probably because the minimal total circulating supply or the fact that the airdrop wasn't that significant that motivates the whale to buy it.

personally i think an age where people are only required to sign using their address gonna be great, no need for complicity dealing with email spams or so on if we submit our email, i've had enough of twitter spamming my mailbox with its nonsense and im too lazy to find out how to stop it.
i think such project already existed beside the one you mentioned but I forgot the name.
though the one thats hot right now is warpcaster if im not mistaken it still requires email, but it integrated mechanism of blockchain already even signing up requires us to pay on chain transaction which amounts to $5 just for signing up, which kinda turn people off.
485  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season on: February 13, 2024, 05:21:29 PM
Roma is one of the biggest candidates to win this cup, along with Milan, West Ham United and Liverpool. In my opinion, the underdog teams are; Brighton, Leverkusen, Braga and Benfica. Of course, there may be surprises in the tournament and an unexpected team may become title. The reason why there is so much talk about Roma is that they are one of the favorite teams of the tournament. Although its performance has not been good lately.
This season there are many good teams in the Europa League which will make the Europa League tournament even more intense and enjoyable for everyone to watch because some of the teams you mentioned are quite good teams and could make unexpected surprises in the Play-offs. However, for Roma, I hope they can immediately win over Feyenoord so they can continue to advance to the next round of the Europa League this season.

These clubs were coming from the UCL. They were unable to be qualified for the further stage and they go down to the UEL. Im still waiting for the match of roma. That's pretty interesting to see roma to face feyenoord which is quite difficult opponent to be beaten by the club. Im still doubting the performance from roma caused by i have heard that bad news related to the this club. The performance was quite consistent when it was facing the weak club but im seeing feyenoord as a strong club as well. The chance of roma to win the first leg is quite big consider feyenoord theorically is even worse compared to the roma but rossi needs always to be careful.

Roma was able being equal compared to the intermilan which is very very good. It means that roma has capability to beat feyenoord soon. Im expecting roma to perform better after it will be able to beat feyenoord in the first leg.
Roma is not in the crisis for being over confidence with its performance. Intermilan had teached roma about how to play the football in the previous game. BTTS is most likely to happen soon. It's caused by feyenoord was quite capable club to beat roma as well.

This is the first time for rossi to handle a club that played in european competition like this.
486  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: February 13, 2024, 04:11:43 PM
Despite such a confident score, the game was very difficult for Chelsea. They lost the first half and were only able to score the winning goals in extra time, and Crystal Peles' mistake is there too, they played a great first half, but what changed in the second half, why didn't they act like they did in the first? Instead of trying to score more, they decided to hold the score and as a result the second half they looked much worse.
Chelsea appeared lucky to .e to have won that game because they didn't have the kind of performance that's deserving of winning that game but then some how they found their selves winning the game, they were confident but their opponent was very repulsive and it almost cost Chelsea the game but it appears they later cane up with a better strategy that got them the win at the end of the second half of the game, crystal palace isn't a really good or though team so I wasn't expecting they win Chelsea.

Chelsea was supposed to comfortably win that game and that's all I taught about but it's was somehow surprising they struggled but then ending the game in a victory in their favor was what matters most and it's what Chelsea was able to achieve.

Maybe yes may be no. We can't really sure how lucky chelsea is but as you can see that how gallagther was scoring two goals. I think that this is not coincidence but it seemed to me that if palace has been making some mistakes that was costing club three points. Im not willing to think about that.
Some players have done their jobs perfectly like gallagher and enzo. So, they deserve appreciation from the fans. It's hard to understand the pattern from chelsea. Sometimes this club is performing good and sometimes it's not. I prefer to focus on how to take less risky bet when we must be betting for chelsea.
The double chance has always become main choice for me to pick when chelsea got strong club as its opponent. The way poch managing the club can't be predicted. Sometimes he puts A on the B position then he was also putting A back tot he his actual position.

This is also hurting the club a lot and i think that's the right time for pochettino to stop it. Im feeling tired when this guy was doing usual thing like put players not in their actual positions. I knew that this is quite risky but we have seen that chelsea got bad result when implemented this kind of shitty strategy from poch.
The won against palace at least gave more confidence for the fans to let him stay much longer in the club. There have been rumor about chelsea to sign the new head coach.
487  Economy / Economics / Re: Coping with Risk. on: February 13, 2024, 06:58:29 AM
so my question is, which is more risky?

A). Running a physical business that has a whole lot of risk associated with it or

B) running an online investment with high risk of hack that could result in you loosing all your asset.


I have a little advice for you and this is it.

** Don't start a business you are not used to with your money, you will most likely failed in that business and you might not make anything because as a first time business person, you are bound to make some errors and mistakes because it's not everything they will tell you until you learn it on your own. So whether you are going online or offline, don't sleep on this advice.

The second advice is this, you should know that all business has risk whether it's online or offline, someone good at online will give you some advice to go for online but by the time you give it a try, it might not worth it or you may even regret trying it out. What you should do is to develop a interest in one area and try a little from it like a form of sample, study it and see if it's going to worth it or not before you push high amount of money into it. Just know that all business or investment involves risk.
i remember the saying that if we are really good at something we can always commercialize it, same thing with business, it might be better to start out from a hobby that we are really good at, something that not an average joe could do like basically building some IoT from microcontrollers or something like that and so on.
if we are good enough people will see the worth in us and eventually we can commercialize it, it will give us upperhand in the market if we are just really good than the average people, giving us better edge to start out busines and reduce that chance of bankrupty because we don't understand the field.
this is the reason why many people also find success from hobby because even at the hardest day of their business, they'd still see fun in it.
488  Economy / Economics / Re: Poor people need solution now on: February 13, 2024, 06:16:53 AM
Yes, and since they are in that kind of situation, Some people are uncertain of the best way to invest their money. This confusion can be compounded by the influence of family and friends who encourage them to spend it on activities that are enjoyable and fun. Without them realizing that the money they have will be easily spent.
this is the importance of financial education, i think education about financial should be free so people know what they are doing with their money, lets be frank here people who have no idea about how money work will just thinking about buying thing they want to buy by the means of saving, for financially educated people, that might not be the best. after all, if we can invest and get passive income instead, we might be able to buy stuff we need while retaining our capital not throwing it around.
thats the advantage of being educated about finance, we know what we can do with the money in our hands, this is also the reason why people are really heard to get out of poverty, because lacking of financial education.
financial education should take place first these days.
489  Economy / Economics / Re: Food security might not be a priority for younger generations. (2) on: February 13, 2024, 06:01:36 AM
well honestly, they could invested in automation of agriculture, i think the yield will just be as massive, though arguably crypto thrive because of its nature, rising in short term is very common with crypto meanwhile investing in agriculture will require long term period for it to make ROI and make profit further.
gen z not investing in agriculture is just them knowing that food nowadays are plentiful, so they don't have the sense of urgency with food.
only when food crisis arise it will become apparent that the need of food simply outweight the other, honestly, they could just invest in both, maybe when they got some good profit out of crypto investment, try to build agriculture business, thats the best.
490  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Do You Use Crypto Signals? on: February 12, 2024, 01:45:20 AM
There are a lot of Crypto Signal Providers - about 5 of them are at the top of the list.
They claim 80% accuracy.
I googled reviews and I read nothing but good things about them.
If they were bad signals people would give bad reviews.

If they do have 80% accuracy, then anyone who uses them would become wealthy in a short time.
Do you use any crypto signals?
I don't use any signals for trading, it's illogical with 80% accuracy, trading is not that simple, and don't ever be fooled by the reviews you read, of course they will definitely get bad reviews, if there aren't any you might I know what I mean, hiring people or making fake reviews, because nowadays everything is easy to do
80% accuracy i would say is over promising, only possible when the signal provider are doing some unified pumping or some sort, basically moving the masses to buy certain coin so that it rise and they try to exit afterwards.
only such orchestrated thing would guarantee 80% because lets be honest not even the best trader out there can predict something like that, you see copy trading of veteran traders most of their trade dont necessarily hit that much percentage.
its just simply unrealistic, but you can always try and see if they are truly true to their words. after all you can always try with small capital to begin with first and then see how the results are.
but personally i would never use trading signal though only gather some information from them and see whether the coin they mentioned worth investing.
491  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Learning comes before earning on: February 12, 2024, 01:08:05 AM

I agree that we should sacrifice our time and our money but we can reduce that when we have someone teach us and when we want to learn in real experience we can use demo trading to reduce our cost. it's true that many people come here to get quick profit that's why we should increase our patience and lower our greed even top traders still lose in trading. Encourage our friends that trading in cryptocurrency is not a quick profit method rather than it's a great place to take the opportunity to change our life. 
demo trading as much as its data nearly identical to the real world trading still arguably lacking in giving that first hand experience of trading with demo account there's no emotion involved here, no money risked, surely people will be cool headed, if they lose they could swept it under the rug but with real money, someone gonna be stressed, panicking at the slightest market movement, as well as gonna be depressed when they are losing money. demo trading good to get the grasp of how things work, how the UI works, also how the whole platform works.
but overall for real trading its still lacking, start out real trading with low capital like just ten dollar and try to trade, it gives better impression, but I do agree with your statement about increasing patience and lower greed, it really is the key to profit.
492  Economy / Economics / Re: Quitting Smoking Has Two Big Benefits. on: February 12, 2024, 12:55:46 AM
But why didn't I say that quitting smoking can make you save more? I felt it myself that quitting smoking made me buy more food and drink. I admit that it is quite difficult to be able to allocate the money that you should buy cigarettes to something else, such as investing or saving, and I applaud that you can do that.

This is really the reality of what happened. When I read OP's article, I was doubtful and thought, is OP really a former smoker? I mean if you are a smoker and then you stop smoking, it won't make you think you will save money because you have stopped smoking. As a smoker who has quit for more than a year, I realize that if you stop smoking, you will use the money to buy food and drinks.

Even though you won't spend money like you would when smoking, that doesn't mean you can immediately save $90 because you have quit smoking. I don't know whether your story is true or not but I applaud you if you can really allocate all the money you use to buy cigarettes to invest.
thats true to some extent some people that are quitting smoking definitely will cope by buying some more food and drink for pleasure and thats totally understandable but some people might instead insist on saving in becasue they want to buy something and thats fine eitherway, quitting smoking despite the fact that the money might went somewhere else already a win for many people since it helps prevent them from getting serious disease.
after all, smoking truly have bad effect on health and if someone is not having good enough insurance they might need to pay serious amount of money just for treatment in the future.
overall, its fine eitherway.
493  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: February 11, 2024, 05:29:19 PM
Arsenal is back in track, they hammer the hammers 6-0 away from home, this is Arsenal’s fourth win after their FA Cup elimination by Liverpool. Arsenal is now considers as a strong contender of the Premier League despite their match losses against Fulham and West Ham United in their first leg match.

Bilya Saka has now scored 50 goals for Arsenal at the age of 22, he is a player that has gain recognition and has become a world class player in the space of four years, he is an important player in Arsenal squad along side Odegard, and others that will lead the team to the Premier League victory, and if they keep consistency, it will be achieved this season.
so because Arsenal won six means they are back on track, I don't see any difference with the old Arsenal and now they are still playing the same thing, and is not about winning six can they carry the premier league, and 6 means Arsenal is strong then what will you say about Manchester city and arsenals winning did not change anything because Manchester city still have an outstanding game which I know we are going to win. so any moment from now we are going to leave them behind. if not West Ham is weak if they could win Arsenal during the first leg it would have been easy to also win the second leg, It full full-time already and Arsenal has won, and having Haaland and de Bruyne back will have much more chance to cause more damages.
Totally agreed with your opinion. People were always overhyping this club in any season and this has been going on for so many years but arsenal was always unable in winning EPL trophy. It looks so crazy to think that how people can still stand on their opinions for so many years while manchester city was consistently winning EPL trophy. Even city was making EPL becomes another farmier league like  bundesliga. This proves that if manchester city much more capable to won the competition without even getting talked by a lot of people.
I do believe that EPL lovers were also watching how consistent city in winning the competition in any year. No improvement for arsenal and it's still the same to bottling the EPL again. This is why people weer always disappointed at the end of season caused by their expectation was way higher than what can be achieved by arsenal.
I don't see it as something wrong but people can try to put lesser expectation for arsenal.  This will not make them all getting so upset with arsenal at the end of season. Manchester city will be winning EPL trophy again.
Arsenal fans shall be ready to be trophyless again this season. Arsenal was just giving false hope without even realize it once. People shall stop to hope arsenal to win EPL coz it will never happen. Yeah good revenge from arsenal to the westham.

I estimate the price of Bitcoin for 2025 to be between $50,000 on the low end and $170,00 on the high end. However, Ethereum can reach a high of $6,000 and a low of $4,200. BNB is between $350 on the low end and $800 on the high end. But Solana price could reach $100 before Bitcoin halving.  Polygon Matic can be as high as $4, as low as $2.5. Dogecoin probably won't be as good as it seems I think. I don't know what will happen to the rest but hopefully it won't be as hopeful as the predictions are. I have confidence in Bitcoin value. But only time will tell if these price targets are realistically possible in 2025 without Bitcoin.
definitely possible the key is always on bitcoin itself if it rally, showing good sign it will go up alongside with the other altcoin out there.
but to be realistically speaking some of the coin that have high supply might not be performing as good as the other with the limited supply.
coin like matic might be falling behind when it comes to price increase because of its humongous total supply it gonna be hard rising its price because
at the slightest price increase the market capital already rising so much, but the other will definitely gonna go up probably reaching all time high.
495  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Which sort of investor are you? on: February 11, 2024, 01:43:27 AM
trading is all about being cool headed in my opinion, knowing that if our trades somehow fail and fortunately enough we are trading spot, then we can just wait it out, becoming a sudden investors or some sort, and thats totally okay, since i've seen many coin going down so sharp and climbing up the next day there's always the next chance of bullrun if the coin have enough future potential.
with amateurish trader, at such juncture, they would instead panicking and the panic sell is the result of their hot headed decision making. also knowing to not trade when the situation with the coin doesn't seem to be right is also one thing, so many people are getting fomo'd because they can't comprehend the situation with the current circumstances of coin is in, i've seen plenty trying to trade at first second of coin listing and they instantly become exit liquidity for some people.
496  Economy / Economics / Re: If Banks make money out of loans then they should reward those who borrow on: February 11, 2024, 01:20:12 AM
Do you still know what you are saying?
If your friend and other people are full of debt that is because they are not responsible and probably want to show off to other people their new stuff and didn't think about their financial stability.

Banks provide numerous benefits, especially through their credit card offerings. If you are knowledgeable about how to manage and optimize your credit card usage, you can take full advantage of the generous rewards they offer. These rewards are an incentive for customers, and you may be missing out if you are not keeping up with their latest news and updates.
yeah its silly, even trying to get loan from bank is kinda complicated already if someone is not really willing and consenting then they definitely aren't gonna be getting any loan.
if someone falls into debt, its certainly because their own fault, if there's any slight risk that they can't pay off debt in the future they should know better about the risk management.
bank exist to lend money, with accompanied risk of course, so that it can get some interests back to their hand to grow the money.
people in the other hand, should know better that these money aren't free money, its a money that need to be paid back and most likely double of the amount if the credit term is long.
497  Economy / Economics / Re: Poor people need solution now on: February 10, 2024, 02:38:12 AM
Let's be real, making a currency nobody else uses and the government ain't cool with is more trouble than it's worth. It's like starting your own language – confusing and probably illegal. Bartering's a different story, but then you don't even need a fancy new currency, right?

So, I gotta be honest, creating your own currency ain't exactly the smoothest move. But hey, I don't wanna rain on your parade entirely. Community currencies can be cool in some situations, like helping out communities struggling with the "regular" money game. Think of it like a local high-five economy, boosting local businesses and building community spirit.
added with countries that forbid the use of currency outside the officially established currency its gonna have some good sentence for those that tries to create their own currency.
every country law is different and this strategy mentioned gonna have some law implications. best chance to fight poverty is just to break our way out through the means that are already available or being provided by the government, for example is studying and getting a job, i think pretty anywhere there's way to get higher degree without the need to pay huge sum amount of money.
after all, what are we, just an individual that exists among other billions of people definitely we should just go with the flow not opposing how the world truly works.

All efforts that we will undertake in business clearly all have risks, even though there are differences in the risks that will be faced, at least establish yourself first because there will be obstacles or obstacles that we must be able to overcome.  The point is, don't give up easily when you experience failure in any business, because from there we can further perfect or correct it again in order to achieve success
this also needs meticulous planning so that the capital, resources, and time spent won't go to waste because fairly speaking there are people that are steel willed never giving up but they depleted their resources fast because they just follow the saying "just do it" without any meticulous planning.
this is also the reason why only very few business man out there could succeeds because starting out business is just that difficult and need to factor the fact that people are sometime lucky to have their business succeed, we can be spending time, resources, meticilous planning and capital to build our business and would still fail if we are unlucky enough.
having business is all about doing the right thing at the right time.
499  Economy / Economics / Re: The savings problem on: February 10, 2024, 02:08:18 AM
Saving is always hard for most of us when we can always make it possible to happen. As long as we have our source of living, regardless of its amount, we can do initial saving even with a small amount. However, while most of us are greedy, as much as possible we want to save instant big amount of funds which I think will be hard to realized most especially if we are the sole breadwinners in the family.

As much as investing is important, saving as well should also be in top priority. Since it’s certain that it’s hard to make a successful investment if you are rushing to make instant profits due to lack of daily budget funds for daily needs.
investment doesn't necessarily mean we should get massive profit, even countering inflation is already suffice for most of people that is like bank deposits and buying gold for investment thats already suffice because if we don't do that our money gonna get slowly but sure reduced by inflation, as much as I love the idea of saving at current time just doing saving from our money will not enough, our purchasing power depleted by 5% and above every year, our money that we are supposed to be saving are instead lost, just move it to bank deposit or anything like that even stablecoin staking if someone is concerned about the inflation will already good enough.
even better if we can invest, increase that risk a little bit, and try to get much more profit that conventionally give our money to be managed by bank through deposits, that way we can even make another source of income that gonna boost our wealth in the long run.

Every match tomorrow is arranged in such a way that the win of every strong team is guaranteed tomorrow. Both Man City and Liverpool will win tomorrow, so even if their 3 points are added to the points table, Man City will be 2 points behind Liverpool. so the possibility of any change in the points table from tomorrow's matches is very less from the top position. Man City will play Everton and Liverpool will play Burnley who are at 18-19 position in the points table. so this match is a chance for them to get 3 easily points
Two points behind for Manchester City is only because Manchester City has not had the same number of matches with Liverpool so the difference of two points is caused by this. And if the number of matches is the same and Manchester City is able to win, of course the change in the points table will be immediately visible, even if it is only by one point. But tomorrow it is more likely for both teams to win so there will be no change in position for either of them.
The remaining match for Man City will be against Brentford at home to Etihad stadium, so this possibility of a two-point difference opportunity will still be favored by Man City in the scenario of what we see in the table now.

Anything can change, in this week's match we can easily guess both teams against low teams while Liverpool and Man City are in the glorious phase of their game so indeed the points table will not change unless Man City wins with Brentford later.

Both the odds are small because they play with relegation teams.

There will be no change in the standing till the end of season. City will have easy fixtures and this can also be used to add more points to leave the competitors behind. Liverpool is yet facing the hard fixtures but i think that since liverpool will be playing without nunez and salah. The club may be bottling some points.
We have no reason to call liverpool as a strong club without two key players. The performance against arsenal was very embarassing caused by liverpool had been showing how poor the club was.

In my opinion, liverpool will be missing some points in the upcoming games while city is likely staying at the top by adding more points. I will enjoying ez money got from putting my bet on the manchester city and liverpool.
City will be staying at the top till the end of season. Im feeling that if everything is just getting even harder for liverpool after the club was missing two important players.

Im doubting this club to stay at the top without all of them.
