I would not mind joining in a bitcoin trading competition if i was great at trading, the competition is innocuous, except if you are new to trading and or put "more money than you can afford to lose into the competition". In every competition or sport you can think of, everyone is obviously there to win, so also is the case in a crypto trading competition and it can't be a con against it, if you aren't ready to compete and prolly lose, then do not bother participating.

I am also interested in how Klopp will play out his squad in remainder of PL after they are confirmed as winners. Probably maybe handing out chances to other players who remained benched mostly or were in subs is what I am expecting now.
Pundits have been asking the same question since Liverpool became champions with seven matches of the 38 left, interestingly we'll have to find out how klopp picks his team now first against City on Thursday. City have nothing to play for really, so do Liverpool technically, except for records sake, the two coaches may end up starting that game without their strongest players.

that's a long contract for a 30yo, isn't a two-year contract the norm? hmm
Or a one-year contract, clubs I think even have a contract extension policy of only just a year for players above 30 (For players in the team already). Barcelona are going for four in this case and it's obvious why, he's a new recruit and they cannot sign him for £62m and give him just one or two years contract, it'll run out quickly and they'd have to renew again, prolly with more expensive clauses for the club, and if they want to sell him, they'll not be at the liberty to sell him at their asking price and could lose the player for even free. Finally also looking at the terms of the deal, it's obvious they are blind to Pjanic's age.

Too much greed puts us at a disadvantage The higher the income the greater the loss Therefore if you start with a little at first the chances of losing are less
The scammer can win over your confidence through smaller transactions between you and them being successful, building a mansion of trust by doing that, but that trust will collapse when the scammer gets into your head that he's not ingenuine and you go in with a larger amount, like in this case. Research on who you're communicating with, than testing them with small amounts.

We need some boost with followers, so the channel can gain more recognition. Any follower will get a small portion of crypto for contributing to our project. When you join, feel free to mute all the messages...
Any follower on your channel who can't write, read or understand polish will be more or less a bot, the channel should strictly be for people who can understand the language in use (Poland in this case).

Rewarding everyone for joining the channel, even if they will never contribute in it, is not the proper way to grow a legitimate channel or group. Focus more on the contents of the channel and in the long run you'll not have to pay or reward anyone to get followers.

And then a lot of old schoolers have left in disgust at how much noise there is.
It is imo prolly quieter than when i registered freshly, there are surprisingly only one or two sites (or maybe app) i have used as much as this forum in less than two years here and i can have no complaints whatsoever spending my time on btt over other places, Reddit for example. As for the future, it does look good from my vantage point, like in my case, I consider many users to be elite and without them, there will be no motivation or yardstick for newer users to work on themselves (and users with this same mentality are many).

I'd be surprised if Aston Villa at this point do not sack their manager Dean Smith, it may not change anything based on their position in the league and their imminent relegation from the EPL, but surely time is running out for Dean. They prolly may have a hard time getting someone good as they'll be competing in the Championship or more of for a return back to the EPL next season.
4828  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: June 27, 2020, 10:56:01 AM
However I am expecting a surprise from Aston Villa since they are in relegation and have to start working from here if they want to get out of the relegation zone.
Villa played well against Chelsea, imo other than Pulisic and Giroud's strike, i think they played better and deserved to have gotten at least a point in that game. A win today for Villa will take them up to 16th place with 30 points, away from the relegation zone, and put pressure on the others when they play; Wolves are in better form though, but this is a must win game for Aston Villa and that could lead them to victory.
I presume Man U will actually try to win?
Norwich are surely going to be relegated this season and with two losses since the restart of the season, 3-0 against Southampton and 1-0 against Everton, it should be a very easy game for Manchester United in the Fa cup today, Solskjaer knows his team have only that trophy to win (Fa cup) so they do not end the season trophyless again, Norwich stand no chance in stopping them.

...Kepa is being sold because Lampard doesn’t trust him, and further it looks like Lampard has the final say on who goes and stays at Chelsea.
If Lampard has been allowed to make decisions on transfers ( both buying and selling) on his own and with the members of his coaching staff, that's a change to how things work or how i knew things worked at Chelsea fc.

The Blues, just like Real madrid usually have the board (Presidenti, owner, chairman) make big money signings for the team even when the coach at that time may not want those players. I feel Lampard will be successful at Chelsea if be continues to get the backing of the board to make his decisions. On Kepa, Franky will be right to sell him, he is not good imo, but maybe he should be replaced with someones better than Onana.
4830  Other / Politics & Society / Re: You Ain’t Black - This statement is going to hurt Biden a lot. on: June 26, 2020, 09:43:15 AM
Biden wanted to use the recent black killings and protests against the government in America, especially that of George Floyd to his advantage to try and win majority of the black votes and that may just have rebounded right back at him; no one is even sure Biden cares about blacks or if he'll support blacks if he wasn't running for president of the US.

It's a wrong statement imo and a selfish campaign tactics, as an American citizen you should exercise your franchise based on the candidate you think is right, not on race (and neither of the candidates vying is black to start with).

• How about , people who are not rich are not required to pay the electricity and gas bills for the time being since during pandemic , literally no one has a job , whereas the subsidised bills can be equally divided into the wealthiest class and they be required to pay the same conditioned that it does not take a toll on their monthly income in any way.
Electricity and gas bills should be paid by every citizen whether rich or poor, as long as one uses those services it cannot be free and it's not possible for the wealthy to pay bills for everyone in the country, when they are in the minority. Also those bills are used by the country to raise revenues that will be put back into the economy for it's growth.
•During a job interview priority must be given to person who is most eligible ofcourse but at the same time the next criterion needs to be the economic situation of the family.
Only qualifications should matter in a job interview, the most qualified candidates should get the job.

The only way around this issue is taxation, citizens should be taxed based on their wealth and income, the wealthy and high income earners should have a heavier tax to pay, while the poor should pay little tax out of their little income, that way the rich will be contributing more to the overall benefit and development of the country, which will benefit all, including those who are not so rich (poor).
4832  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: June 25, 2020, 07:53:35 PM
Lampard's decision to release the Spaniard does not sound surprising. Because in this 2019/20 season, Pedro has rarely gotten minutes to play because only recorded nine matches in the Premier League.
His age does not favor him at all, we all understand what Lampard is trying to do and that's build the team around young players like Mount. Pulisic, Tammy, Werner etc, Pedro is 33 years old i think and even though he hasn't had any great season with Chelsea, the last two have more or less being poor.

I thought Pedro would go back to Spain when his time at Chelsea expires, i must say I'm surprised with the move to Italy (Roma) imo he does not look like a player that will shine in the Seria A.  
4833  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Poll - How did you obtain your first BTC / satoshis? on: June 25, 2020, 07:15:59 PM
I chose the option of 'payment for a provided service,' I hope that option covers signature campaigns? Because that's how i received my first bitcoin. Users who earned their first satoshi/btc through faucets are leading in this poll, but I've never done faucets, i think the reason is, by the time i started nurturing my interest in bitcoin (2018) faucets and also airdrop were no longer as profitable as they used to be. Will I be correct to say "most users who earned their first btc/satoshi through faucets prolly heard of bitcoin before 2018"?
4834  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Read and Learn bounty managers on: June 25, 2020, 05:19:22 PM
If i was a bounty manager (though I don't intend to be one yet) I'd not manage ico/altcoin bounties, there's no way I'll determine if the bounty will pay the bounty hunters at the end of the project, if they won't make an exit scam, if their coins won't dump etc etc (there are just too many if's) they can approach me and look good, but just as many of them have, in the end they may not be. I appreciate the efforts of managers who manage altcoin bounties, but if I'm a BM, I'll manage only BTC paying bounties, to protect my reputation.
4835  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Is China going to dominate the world? on: June 25, 2020, 12:43:45 PM
China will find it easier to dominate the countries that are indebted to them, for example there are a lot of countries, especially in Africa that owe China a lot of money, and even before the outbreak of corona virus these governments do not even have the resources or plans to pay back in the near future, the aftermath of covid-19 makes it more improbable for them not to default on the loans; this can play well into Chinese hands. They can slowly gain control of these countries (territories within them) and their resources in exchange for the money owed, a situation that could lead to neocolonialism in the long run.

But dominating the entire world is beyond China, they may have a good and fast growing economy, but to dominate the entire world, they need to surpass other nations, especially economically and in defense (military) and they need strong allies with other world powers (China are making more enemies than friends atm).
The US are currently ahead of china and the world in these aspects and I don't think China can usurp them.

I am also surprised by what happened to the Spurs, the players of Spurs are better than Leicester, but in why they are can not do much to win the trophy. IMO, even Kane moved to other clubs, it will not guarantee he can bring a trophy for his clubs, see what happens with Ibrahimovic, even he can win in Local league, he can't bring Champions League title when he on that clubs.  Grin
Kane for instance is not looking at the Champions league imo, any trophy will do for him, he's a world class striker and he can brings goals along with him to any club, if spurs do not win any trophy next season, be it even the carabao or Fa cup, i can see Harry leaving.

There are definitely teams that guarantees a player trophies, there's Barcelona, Real Madrid, Manchester City and some others, if Kane goes to any of this teams, he's sure going to lift a trophy or two, in let's say a maximum of two seasons. Mourinho can and has won trophies everywhere he coached in, so Kane and spurs may likely be putting something into their trophy cabinet next season.

Inter vs Sassuolo - Home win
Atalanta vs Lazio - Both teams to score
Roma vs Sampdoria - Home win

3 legged parlay, what do you think guys?
I'd be going with Lazio to win, since they've overtaken Inter Milan in the chase to catch Juventus, i think they will go home today with all three points and close the gap to a point between themselves and Juve, so away win & BTTS for me.

Inter and Sassulo for me looks more like a draw, matches between them are usually very difficult for inter, in their last six, Inter have won one, Sassulo four and one draw; so I'd be going with a draw tonight. Roma win imo also.

This is really amazing, writing of poems is just a talent I have. I think I inherited it from my grandpa, never knew so many would get excited over the poem, let me assure you, every rank up deserve a good poem from me.
Your poem is interesting to read (you know reading a poem is different from a text) and i also like the rhyming pattern you employed on the last word of every verse, it's not easy to write poems or even to understand them; I know that because I've taken a course on poetry in the university and it's always difficult to decipher what the poet or the poet persona is trying to say. Good thing your own poem is not difficult for us to understand, congratulations.
Used that talent in creating funny and enjoyable poems. Some here would probably enjoyed it. Just wait in time, to rank up.
It's always good to write poems, but imo I'd advice op to write poems prolly only on special occasions (rank up, halving or any other crypto events). If OP decides to make most of his posts poems, users will definitely get bored of it and the threads could then even start getting moved to off-topic board by mods.
4839  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread (EPL) on: June 23, 2020, 08:44:31 PM
It seems Leicester is no more safe in 3rd place. in one part of the season, they looked like an equal opponent to Liverpool and Manchester City, now they are wasting it all. Chelsea can come to only -2, ManUTD to -6. I didn’t watch the remaining opponents, but it seems that they may be endangered for top 4
Chelsea can close up to 1 point, not two, they are on 51 points now and Leicester on 55, United and Wolves can reduce the gap to six, I would not want to include spurs, I don't even think Manchester United or Wolves can catch Leicester, so imo only Chelsea can take their second spot from them.

Chelsea are up against City this Thursday, I don't think Chelsea can win, and it'll be a good result for Leicester if Chelsea don't, as they'll still maintain their four point lead over Chelsea. If they were prolly doing well, they'll want it to go the other way so they can try and catch city in second place, but with their performances since the restart of the league, they'll be content and lucky to end in number 2 position.
4840  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Spyce Price Conditions before and After Distribution on: June 23, 2020, 06:18:10 PM
I always suggest hunters not to rush but sadly most of hunters still rush to sell as soon as they receive the reward tokens they do not even care about the price which is really unbelievable, if the project is of good quality there is no point selling for pennies, just give enough chance to the team to come up with quality product and definitely you can make good profit then with price gains of multiple times.
If I worked for the spyce project, or invested in it, sorry I would not be heeding to your advice, I'll sell the coins ASAP. If you sell immediately, the ROI or return for bounty hunters may be pennies like you said , but imo it's better than holding and selling for less than pennies, or the team makes an exit scam, and you have no one to sell to then. I can only hold Bitcoin for a long time, as for new icos/altcoins, I don't, they are more of pump and dump coins and if you invested part of your money in it, you'll not want to be caught holding it when it dumps.
