I am not a big fan of BCCI. It has been under the control of powerful politicians and businessmen, who care only about profits. But at the same time, it is not right to blame them for the cancellation of bilateral tours between India and Pakistan. In India, the public opinion is not in favor of any renewed sports relations with Pakistan. So there is not much the BCCI can do about it.

We still have a long way to reach a new ATH for the Binance Coin (BNB). If I am not wrong, the ATH for Binance coin as of now is $39 per coin, which was achieved sometime in mid-2019. The current prices are still around 40% lower when compared to this level, and I don't think that we'll see another altcoin bull rally this year, which can take established alts such as BNB to new ATH levels.

Being an Indian citizen, I have to say that it is very easy to forge the date of birth column in the high school mark sheet. At the time of joining, the parents usually lower the age of their child by 6 months or an year and this new date of birth is then continued with every document such as Aadhar Card, Voter ID.etc. Most of the time, it goes on without any suspicion. However, in some cases, as a result of the physical appearance of the individual he gets caught and if he is unlucky, then he'll be sent for the bone-density test.

During the recent few days, there have been a noticeable drop in Bitcoin dominance. Now it stands at 61.7% (which represents a drop of almost 7% from the levels that we had in December 2019). And most surprisingly, Ethereum gained the maximum amount of market share during this time, despite the delays affecting the roll-out of Ethereum 2.0 and the poor health of the ICO market.

Some of the users may argue that Ethereum Classic is the real ETH, because it didn't reversed the transaction involving DAO robbery. However, the adoption and acceptance level of ETC is much lower than that of ETH and in the recent years, the growth has been low for that coin. So for not, it is a wiser decision to stick to ETH. ETC has a significant number of loyal users remaining, but it has failed to grow its user-base.

You forgot Beuran Hendricks? He was the one who got the wicket of Eoin Morgan. Although he conceded 16 runs from his first five balls, he made sure that Eoin Morgan will not be able to bat in the final over. And that was the turning point in the match. England had a very long tail, and they couldn't manage the raw pace of Lungi Ngidi. The outcome would have been different, if Morgan was there in the final over.

In the recent years, India has performed well in overseas pitches that supported pace bowling. But this was mostly due to the effort put in by seam bowlers such as Mohammad Shami and Ishant Sharma, as well as due to consistent performances with the bat by Virat Kohli. But the spinners and the other batsmen have not yet proved themselves in such conditions. And therefore, New Zealand has a real chance of upsetting India.

Shitcoin bubble reached its peak in 2017 and then it burst in 2018-19. It is not not going to occur ever again, because most of the investors learnt their lesson in a hard way (ie. by losing their money). Now the market is more mature and it is not that easy to fool the cryptocurrency users and vanish with hundreds of millions of USD worth of coins. Some of the established altcoins on the other hand (such as Ethereum, Litecoin and Ripple) have very good future potential and may continue to attract investments.

I have to agree on this part. Even during the recently concluded U19 World Cup, many of the players looked as if they were comfortably above 19 years (sadly most of them playing for the four Asian teams). It is easier to forge the age certificates in Asian nations, since data is not stored in servers (mostly it is in hard copy format). On the other hand, in the Western nations all the details are stored digitally and it is almost impossible to forge the DOB or other details of an individual.

He is the choice of the Indian players. If they hire a foreign coach, then the players may not get adjusted to the rigorous training schedules and rules (this has happened whenever the Indian team had foreign coaches, such as John Wright, Greg Chappell and Gary Kirsten). Chappell in particular had a stormy relationship with many of the players. Shastri is lenient and allows whatever the players want to do. For the BCCI, it is just another position which they can auction off to the highest bidder.

Politics is interlinked with sports nowadays and my personal opinion is that you can't just put the blame on cricket. Other sports are also not free from the influence of politics. Russia was banned from Olympics for the use of Meldonium, while the American gymnast Simone Biles (who won the gold) was let scot free for the usage of the same drug. The excuse given that she needs the medication for her ADHD medication. How bizarre this sounds? Who needs a performance enhancing drug such as Meldonium to treat ADHD? And similarly, Russian Maria Sharapova was banned for the usage of Meldonium, while the Williams sisters tested positive for it and yet faced no action against them.

Well... not all of the altcoins were created for the purpose of speculative investment. There were coins such as TRX and NEO, which were created for niche fields. But these coins have also failed to take off. For example, TRX was intended for the online file sharing market. But hardly anyone is using it for that purpose. The problem is that many of these coins were over-hyped and due to that the promoters ignored the basic aspects. 

Ripple is perhaps the only cryptocurrency which enjoys almost unlimited support from the wall street giants. The bankers also seems to be excited about XRP, which is a bad sign as far as I am concerned. Anyway, the support XRP managed to receive from the bankers and hedge fund managers explain why this shitcoin is not dead yet. How can it die down, when it is being supported by all these whales?

If you go with the market cap, then Bitcoin is almost 3 times bigger than all the altcoins combined (here I have added Bitcoin forks such as BCH and BSV to the market cap of Bitcoin and have excluded the stablecoins). And it is not surprising, given the fact that the exchange rates of these altcoins remain mostly dependent on that of Bitcoin. Very few of them have an independent existence.

Virat is more like Saurav Ganguly when he was the captain, and Mahendra Singh Dhoni remembers me of Mohammad Azharuddin. Both are polar opposite, with the first one being overly aggressive and the second one being overly mild natured. BTW, I don't understand the role of daamad (Ravi Shastri) in the team. I am yet to see any positive contribution from this guy. 

Cryptocurrency users are forced to register with a large number of exchanges, because some of the tokens are only traded in one or two minor exchanges. So bounty hunters need to create accounts in dozens of exchanges, so that they could convert some of their earnings to hard cash. And the exchanges were taking advantage of this and fleecing them. Now the bounty campaigns are a shadow of the former self and the number of users registering to smaller exchanges have decreased. As a result, the exchanges are now being forced to reduce their fees.

A large number of altcoins are copycats and the only intention behind their creation is to bring profits to the promoters. And therefore it doesn't surprise me that many of them died down. Good altcoins with practical usage are still being used in good numbers, and one example is that of Litecon. Despite the technological disadvantages, the development team has been working hard to remove the bugs and issues and the end result is for everyone to see.

Two years ago, I used to take part in a lot of bounty campaigns (both signature and social media bounties). Back in 2017-18, the rewards were quite high. I remember campaigns, which gave me more than $100 in one month. But by mid-2018, most of the bounties started dishonoring their promise. Less than 20% of them were paying and even those which paid had very low rewards. I don't think that the situation has changed now.

Well.. that 's true. Even in Bitcoin markets such as Bitify, the prices are being pegged in fiat currency. Even if you are paying in BTC or any other crypto, the final cost of the product is fixed in fiat. Also, in most of the online markets, payments in Bitcoin are being immediately converted to fiat before it is deposited in the account of the seller. So you are right. We have a long way to go.

Please don't beat the dead horse again and again. The limit for maximum supply will never be removed and the 21 million limit is going to be permanent. Why should the developers remove the limit, since it will reduce the value of existing coins and make them more similar to fiat currency? This is something that Ben Bernanke did to the United States Dollar. We don't want the same to happen to Bitcoin.
