I was surprised seeing Neymar reaching 400th goal mark,that shows he is truly a football legend,he have been criticized alot but I think he is in there with the likes of CR7 and Lionel Messi,he still has age and he is going to add to that numbers.now he has Messi in that midfield is only going to get better,once Messi adapt to his new surroundings and team mate. GRACIAS NEYMAR.
With some good number of injuries and having on and off field issues, still he is one of great footballer of this generation because he is still very young and have some long career if any serious injury or problem not happen to this star player.

Even he is much behind in very long scorers in soccer history, but his achievements are much better than his goals as Santos won their first title after nearly 3 decades and also having very good record with Barcelona and now doing good for PSG. Once he was the most expensive footballer in history of this game, many good things just with this very good quality player and many to follow.

The BCCI doesn't allow Indian players to participate in franchise cricket leagues around the world, which limits their exposure in a big way.
The Indian team was playing in a bubble with their performances only in the IPL or series within the Big 3. This bubble was badly exposed when they had to play against the top talented teams like Pakistan. BCCI should need to revise their policy otherwise they will have to face similar situation whenever they will play big tournaments.
They are afraid of losing with their neighboring country and hence they prefer not to play at all.
There was no bubble it's just simple they play bad in 2 early games and lost out and down now they are going to start with new things surely these are going to have some big impact on them and their strategy for future games. I personally respect Virat as player but as captain he has done very bad things in last few years it's good for him, he already leaves and now new captain can handle team in better way and Virat also can play without any pressure which help him for better performance.

Many times Virat done serious mistakes in selections which cost India very badly today I was reading on one site writer was saying he was biased with few players and I have to agree with him in this case because his poor selection hurt Indian team very badly in many matches.

I would love to give some chances to Ole because he was pretty bad as well last season but Manchester United ended up as 2nd in the end but it seems some players might not even want him as their coach anymore so it will be just matter of time for him to be sacked or replaced somehow. Even if he do make it atleast until the boxing day then Im pretty sure Management board would appoint someone new eventually
We have some very interesting situation for Ole in Manchester United because few players also wants him to leave, but management is not going to do this all very quickly because they are giving him chances even having very poor results against Liverpool and then Manchester City few legends also asking for his resignation, but he is still hanging around because management feeling he can do things like last season, and they could be in top spot. But if he wants to stay then need some better results after this break if he is going to lose again then surely they are having no option other than throughout him from this job.

But things are not good for him after break because first match against Watford away then Chelsea away and Arsenal and Crystal palace at home are not easy for them.
484  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to find these coins? on: November 09, 2021, 07:48:01 PM
So how to spot these coins before they get popular or are listed on big exchanges and are purchaseable at decentrilised exchanges?
I think right now there are a lot of groups of experts who are always on the hunt for gems.  They bring together professionals, experience and expertise to find the right project.  I was fortunate to have known Sovryn from bitcointalk first, and BCW.  Compared to all the IDO launch projects or some other gamefi thing, Sov is probably showing a macro vision and meaning along the way.  I think it will be a super good project for a defi for bitcoin, it will be uptrend for near future after Taproot.
Currently, Social media is doing some good for gem projects because few influencers are giving all updates related to good projects with teams and use case, which is very helpful. But, main thing is still we need some good work from ourselves for having good information about project which is good for investment.

First check about team of developers who is in and what is their record in past about their work because it's very important then check use case is good or have any good impact in future because it's also very important if you are not able to check these things surely it's going to create problems for you and your investments. Sometimes they have white paper which is copied pasted which is never been helpful for any investor. So going through with some of all things is surely good for anyone.

Starting point is a big challenge when it comes to Investment. There are people who find it difficult to start up an investment because what they have is not large. Start your investment with the little you have it will go a long way.

Expectations to have something big to start maybe delayed. Do you know what point you would have reached if you had started with the little which you afford?
That is true, there is a time when I usually wish that I had much more money to invest in the market, but as time goes on I realized that the mindset I had was the wrong  mindset that an investor should have. So, later I decided to start investing the little money that I have and I was doing it steady whenever I receive my monthly salary. With time the money I was investing accrued a lot of profit as it keeps growing as well.

So, it is very important to start small and before you know it you start growing big enough. If you keep waiting for the time when you have millions to invest in cryptocurrency then you’re going to keep waiting without achieving anything and not even get the million you’re wishing for. But if you starts small, as time goes on you will get up to that million and even cross it.

Do you guys suggest options / puts or other methods of hedging downside on bitcoin?

Which platforms are you using and do any of them work for americans?
Most of the hedge funds that I’ve seen online are not really meant for people who don’t have huge amounts of money to invest. They’re mostly meant for institutions and big investors that have over 100 thousands of dollars to risk in them.

And of course if you took notes of what I said there, I used the word “risk” because hedge funds are also a lot of risk due to the fact that they are seeking a short term profit. When you hedge your funds or cryptocurrency, it is a means of managing your risk, and it doesn’t really eliminate the risk that are involved in this kind of investment.
487  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: November 08, 2021, 10:25:13 PM
With the way Juventus has struggled not just in the seria a this season but in all competitions, I'm not sure they would be able to compete for the Scudetto this season. Well, they have won a lot in recent years, they just need to win enough matches to qualify for Europe competition next season. Despite winning against Fiorentina, they lacked the much needed edge that has set them apart from other teams in the league for the past years.

Juve is in a similar situation like Barcelona and Madrid now.
Juventus is currently struggling badly in Italian League which is really concern for fans and management but if we check we have same dilemma for some other big clubs in Europe these all are struggling very badly because these all are facing same issues just in Barcelona case is some different as they are also having some financial issue also, but Manchester United is also going down very badly for sometime from these all 3 clubs I have same feeling they need some very hard work for qualifying in next year's European competition because situation is not good for them.

Time is running out very quickly and these teams dropping points regularly which is not helping their cause for having better end in this season, hopefully we will have some better news in near future.
488  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Taking Profits on: November 07, 2021, 09:34:39 PM
I use to believe in long term holding but not any more though this worked for early crypto adopters....today i think the most profitable strategy is to keep scaping for your profits. Just as forex you could apply a risk management strategy of say risk 5% of your portfolio on each trade and for take profits on lower time frames, a 1-10 Risk to reward should be very possible to collect if you are an aggressive trader or if you want to play it safe a 1-3 should be very much possible to attain....and within 50 trades or so taking into account of some losses you should be able to double your portfolio.
Mostly, we have no idea when to take off and stop this trade. Because, it is not easy decision, but we need to check all ways of market when we have some better profit than we can take and then still have eye on this all because if this reach on some stable level or fall then we can jump again which will help us for having some good exit and entryway for this profit.

Mostly members with some good strategy take profit at resistance and make new support buying for another entry and having better profit on this trade. This all requires some good intention patience and trade without any emotions, otherwise you are down and out.
489  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: November 07, 2021, 08:25:13 PM
Still, Paris Saint-Germain managed to get three points. They won again in the match without Messi. Neymar and Mbappe needed to show off and they did it well. They've already increased the points gap to ten, it's very hard to catch them.
If things continue like that, PSG will get the title by round 32. The ironic thing is that there isn't a real competitor for them. OM, Nice, Rennes, Lyon aren't stable at all. Lens lost 6 points in the last 5 games and not sure for how long they could stay 2nd. Lille is a joke this season. I couldn't blame PSG fortune for dominating the league but the failure of the others is disappointing..
Right now just 13 rounds end and PSG is leading by 10 points from second rank team which is good gape for them having to stay on top in this round Marseille held at home and Lens won their match but still mostly other top rank teams struggling to have good results which is big problem because these good teams have not quality players.

I am very shocked with Lille performance as they are really the joke of this season with their performance going down very badly in recent matches. But still we have no any better suggestion for having good results because all teams having no luxury like PSG, so this is going to continue for some more years here in French League.

If you think 3 goals in the first half have made Barcelona win this match then I think you are wrong. The second half was dominated by Celta Vigo where at this time they had scored 2 goals and now the score to 2-3. Barcelona's defense in the second half was very poor especially Lenglet and if this continues then Barcelona will probably lose or at least draw.

I am happy with Xavi's return to Barcelona as a coach because it looks like he will change a lot of Barcelona's game for the rest of the season and he will probably start managing the team next week. But for this match I hope Barcelona can keep their win.
well they couldn't, and what a terrible way to go out of this match with a draw, leading 3-0 in the first half and ending the match with a draw in the last minutes of the match, that's gotta be a harsh draw for the fans too, I said that here yesterday that the match could end with a draw but I never expected a scenario like this.
It's really shameful end for team like Barcelona they were leading by 0 - 3 until 50 minutes, and then they lost this match in miserly mean they have to stay in middle not in top ranked teams until some more week with this performance.

I was feeling very happy and never feel in this after placing my bet with Barcelona ML but as now I check my betting account it's showing I already lose this bet with this result of 3 - 3 not believe on my eyes and then check again on few sites all showing this result really frustrating result for fans and punters those was feeling something good going to happen.
491  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Interest on Bitcoin on: November 06, 2021, 05:02:10 PM
so happy I joined this forum - I didn't even know it's possible to get interest on Bitcoin! Thanks everyone for enlightening me here
I hope you understand the type of interest OP is talking about, it's not the sort of interest you gain from hodling/investing/trading, I believe OP is inquiring about forfeiting your private keys to maybe an organization/company and earn a percentage from the organization depending on the agreement in the contract, mind you that this is embedded with so much risks, if you've not heard, "if it's not your keys, then it's not your coins", thus giving your keys to anyone takes away the ownership of the coin from you. If you want to earn interest on your coins, then hodl it, trade it, just do anything, but make sure you are the only one in possession of your private keys/seed phrase.
You are right, there are risk involved because when you are not holding your keys then you are not really holding your coins. Anyone who holds your keys is totally in charge of your coins. But, I don’t think most of these companies that the OP has mentioned would like to put a dent on their image by scamming people, will they? That is the last thing they would like to do because all those companies are already big names in the cryptocurrency market.

Although I’ve never really considered anything that has to do with staking on any platform and getting interest, I’m already satisfied with the profit I’m getting from just holding it in my wallet. But it wouldn’t be bad if anyone should consider making extra.
492  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Going public saying you own Bitcoin is not safe anymore on: November 04, 2021, 07:10:25 PM
Nowadays we need to be careful when publicly admitting to owning Bitcoin. A lot of crypto traders have been receiving threats as in the case of Daniel one of the guys from Chart Champions.

Things are escalating as, apparently, a 14-year-old kid from England got kidnapped after bragging on social media posts about having lots of money made from trading cryptocurrencies.

That's why I don't like anyone to know I'm in the Crypto business.
It is not just about Bitcoin, there has never been a time that it is good to brag about assets that you own.
As an investor, it is always good to  keep everything you are doing to yourself and not reveal it to your friends or anyone, except people you trust very well.

There are lots of people who are wishing you bad, but you wouldn’t know this. So, that’s why you shouldn’t be talking about things you own or how much you have in the public, because making such statements is going to make you a target for them and get you into trouble. This is not the first time I have seen or heard a story like this, there have been one where someone was robbed of their Bitcoin. So this is nothing new, you have to always be careful about it.
493  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Can SHIB rise to 0.1? on: November 04, 2021, 01:21:48 PM
It may have given one of the best return but it srill doesn’t change the fact that it's a shitcoin. It's still a shitcoin.
Have you ever calculated what will be the market cap of Shib will be once it raised to $0.10? I think it will be 100x higher than current bitcoin marketcap. Do you think it will be possible even?
if creators burn 99% of SHIB supply such price will look more realistic. but I doubt such step is possible though we should expect more pumps and SHIB could make another 5x or even more.
Creators already announces they are going to burn their 41% coins just because of this few peoples having good investments in this because now they are feeling some better about this but still not having any realistic approach about this.

Because, I am also feeling it's a meme coin and having nothing to do with this crypto it's just created by some scammers for having good amount of funds in their own pockets but peoples still in radar of this hype even mostly realizes they can lose their funds but greediness killing humans nature and crypto unpredictable nature is also having some serious impact on this all hopefully we will never have any serious impact on this crypto community just because of this meme coin.

PSG is winning the match 2-1. But I didn't like the way they played. RB Leipzig are playing very well and they do not deserve defeat. Leipzig is ahead of PSG in ball possession. Moreover they have tried to attack more than PSG. Although I would not say that the attacks were very good. However, they made 16 shots, while PSG made only 7. The match was competitive. However, we did not see any good gameplay today from the 3 players of PSG's Forward, Neymar-Mbappe-Di Maria.
Injury time penalty give a well deserve point to Leipzig and PSG having another poor result with very strong and star-studded squad like Neymar-Mbappe-Di Maria these all have not good contribution in this game which is really mystery for PSG and management but good thing happening for them as now clearly they can qualify for next round even with second spot because now in next round they're having tough match against Manchester City which is on top and having full power to destroy them at home.

Hopefully in next few days we will have some good news about Messi which can give some better for this team in next Champion League matches.
495  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: November 04, 2021, 08:20:34 AM
In fact rule one of going on internet is to avoid social media. I only follow some of the things because we have to check our company's profile and of course because of my search history all the Barca things pop up. And my eyes cannot run and hide from the painful posts Smiley

Definitely know going to get triggered, just probably I must remember not to make my Mondays about looking at those things or maybe even find a way to filter out.
Right now, social media is real place for having some serious destructive place for many I am also having some serious troubles just because of this recently due to my some engagement with projects I have to check them just because of this sometime few things pop up which hurt badly as today we have another time Messi was not in team, and they are facing another bad result which is hurting PSG but peoples against complaining about many things which need some time but nothing else.

Just crying on social media is never been going to help anyone, even these having nothing to do with this all issue as well.

Indian Afghanistan match has raised eye brows of many people. They way Afghanistan team played is surprising, there are bright chances of India reaching the semis now. Afghanistan team will try there best to beat NZ.
Now, after watching that match I have feeling NRR is not issue for India because in next both matches against Namibia and Scotland they can do 200+ and having some good bowling can give them good change in NRR.

Now Indian qualification for semi-final is all depended on Afghanistan vs New Zealand match if Afghanistan able to defeat them then clearly Indians can qualify and if they fail to do so then surely New Zealand have to go into semi-final. Just check as social media reacting on today's match, maybe we will have some miracle in next few days and India could be in semi-final because money can do all things for them right now through ICC.
497  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: November 04, 2021, 06:59:11 AM
It was not mandatory. In case of India, Virat Kohli asked the BCCI management for permission to knee for BLM, which was granted by the president Sourav Ganguly. It has nothing to do with the ICC directives. During yesterday's match between Namibia and Afghanistan, both the teams refused to knee. Namibian players held up their hands in support, while Afghanistan did the right thing by completely ignoring it. I still don't understand what Asian teams have to do with the BLM movement. Afghanistan and Pakistan are doing the right thing by standing against this drama.
This issue was very much settled but it came to cricket in this WC. Just like sometimes cricket promoting awareness on breast cancer. Don't worry this moment won't pop up in other icc tournaments. Even if it pops up I don't see any harm in kneeling down for BLM.
Surely this is not going to have any serious impact in ICC events in future because it's all about your personal feelings. I really appreciate Afghanistan as they completely ignore this because they feel they have nothing with this all, and it's true. They are already facing some other troubles which are more important for them in future instead of going down on knee for BLM.

Few peoples talking about Aids and Cancer programs were also obliged by ICC, so this is also needed some intention, but I have been feeling these are completely different from this drama which is happening in name of BLM because it's all about just politics nothing else. So, hopefully this all will be settled by better understanding between all parties.
498  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why is burning coins good on: November 03, 2021, 09:10:55 PM
Burning coins is good for old top coins. This reduces the total supply of tokens and increases the price.  But burning a new coin is not very effective. Because they have huge total supply. As a result, burning a few coins can have no effect on the total supply and price.
Even burning is good for many projects but still we have to understand all this is also creating some hype which is not good because peoples not understanding this all and investing in hype which still not beneficial for them. Burning could be helpful in only better use case of projects because if your use case is still not good then surely this burning is also not going to have any impact on this project, it is just because of shilling and having some short term benefit which is never been good idea.

As we already have some good examples from different members, burning could be useful in only case you are doing this all by demand and supply but if you already have some very big supply then this burning could be helpful until you reach on your better demand.
499  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How reasonable is the long-term investment in Altcoins? on: November 03, 2021, 08:38:26 PM
The risk will always be in the investment. Whether it's long or short term. But for long-term purposes cryptocurrencies are right to be an option because the risk is slightly smaller but time is uncertain. I even lost a few years in its improvement until cryptocurrencies could be this big now. There is still a lot of time and better development in the future in this crypto world and of course will support its value also continues to rise.
This is fact mostly we have risk factor in both way long or short because investment is all about risk, specially in cryptocurrency risk factor is some high because of unpredictable nature of crypto. Recently we have some good number of scam projects which are coming very quickly with some meme coins without any use case because scammers feeling currently this trend is working in better way, so they are keep pumping and having some good profit if someone wants to invest then surely he needs to have some better search and work out in project before investment.

Investing in meme coins are very risky as they can disappear any time with investors funds which will never been recoverable on any forum even it is for very short time invested.
500  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will Bitcoin/ETH replace fiat someday? on: November 03, 2021, 08:08:19 PM
In the online world nothing is possible but bitcoin/Eth replacing fiat will take a long time because it has to adapt to existing rules, fiat is currently used in real transactions around the world while bitcoin and Eth are only digital currencies that can be traded. use it in online form only so it's very much different if we synchronize to replace it even though it seems that the movement has seen many countries have accepted bitcoin as a transaction tool
Even we are going all online but still it is not possible because we all know Bitcoin/Ethereum both are some complicated things and have serious issues, just because of this they can't replace fiat in long run future. Mostly governments have good benefits from centralized things and this crypto is completely decentralized which is not helpful for them, so they never allowed this all.

Fiat is not at all easy to replace which means replacing the central banking system globally which is not easy thing for many countries due to some serious issues and regulations which are completely different in many regions. Bitcoin has potential and will be seeing adoption soon, but fiat will also be in use as it is working currently around the globe.
