Angers win Lion 3-0
Lille - Nice 0-4

Quite an unexpected result for me personally. Lyon is playing very weak for the second match. They conceded 4 goals and scored only one. It will be a shame if Lyon and Lille fail to show last year's game. Lille  conceded 7 goals in two matches, although they have always played well in defense.
This is a shocking result for me too. Who thought that Angers would beat Lyon 3 goals to nil? Btw before the start of the game angers had a price of 4.9 odds while Lyon had odds of 1.77 which gives you the impression of how much lyon was considered to be the favourites and Let's not even bring the red card into the picture this came after Angers had scored 2 goals, I guess the start of a football season comes with a lot of surprise results as teams get to know each other with new signings od the team.

Act as quickly as possible
“The quicker you can act, the better,”. The longer you wait to start tracing your crypto, the more time you give thieves to transfer your assets to cold storage, send them to sketchy exchanges, or to tumblers to mix them up.
But when coins are stolen from an exchange are you are affected, if the exchange doesn't pick this security breach and coins are moved away from it, chances are the exchange is to compensate you especially if all preliminary steps like setting 2fa and are there.  You don't need to be a Sherlock Holmes

Legality
For the legal system to actually work in your favor, you’ll likely need to know who stole your cryptocurrency. 
If you know the person that stole your coins this becomes a criminal case and one can be prosecuted in court for it.

ReclaimCrypto
Coinfirm is teaming up with global investigations firm Kroll, to launch a joint initiative called ReclaimCrypto. ReclaimCrypto combines the latest blockchain forensic techniques with the world of legal investigation and asset recovery. Pawel Kuskowski, CEO of Coinfirm told Coindesk:

 What happens to your crypto in places where crypto isn't legalized then Reclaim can't do their job,let's just keep backups and know how to use our crypto securely to avoid all these hurdles.

Hello Guys,

Trx, Zil and SXP, I am wondering between these 3 coins. Trx can x10 go 1$ like ADA?

Thanks for advice.
I have no idea what SxP is all about but I know the other two and I can say go with TRX its better than Zil,and reason for picking tron Is because it's in the same category as Ethereum and the Binance coin and I can say these have great potential to grow as demand also comes from users trying to move tokens based on their blockchain.
You have the last say for which token to go with but I say go with tron as this has a natural growth to it.

This will be totally inappropriate if done, seems to be like the recent and newly European Super League..it will end up a failure at the end

It can happen and won't happen..I can't even imagine such happening.
I agree,, It could be another attempt to try to get people to reconsider the European Super League.


Even if this is true how would they move their stadium and it's facilities. If they story was real Madrid plans on opening a new club in the English premier league it would sound a bit understandable since it would mean the plan on having a new club in England and the real Madrid in Spain and this also will mean building new facilities like stadiums and lots more.
After putting some thought to the above , it's actually possible just not with its popular Spanish team but a totally new Real Madrid...like the English branch which could be called Real England or something Roll Eyes.

By the way how did RedBull have two football teams,as in RedBull Salzburg and RedBull Leipzig  are these two teams not related to reach other?
4925  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: August 15, 2021, 08:37:35 AM
Great games so far in EPL as we had so many goals today and I hope tomorrow won't be different. The best game today is still United who performed with such a class and deliver such a delightful football to watch so massive congrats to United and to Ole as it seems game after game United is becoming stronger.

Any tips for Spurs - City ? Both to score and City to win ?
Spurs can be unpredictable sometimes and had they been managed by Mourinho I would say a win would have been possible but not this one,  and besides Manchester City has been a class of their own during the friendlies and I don't see them dropping points In their first game of the competition.

My prediction: Tottenham 0-3 Manchester City,  unless the home fans have an impact because fans are back we might have a different result.

I like how President Alberto Fernandez is cautious  about making decisions over bitcoin just yet which should be the decision everyone should be making and not acting on emotions or closing this opportunity for others because you don't understand cryptocurrencies.
Let technocrats advise then decisions be made but for now great job Mr President .

I think that gradually the governments of all countries will look for methods to legitimize bitcoin.
And that's what we waiting for and once this happens it's bitcoin to 1 million dollars.

We all wish we knew this is what the future had for us ,people would have emptied their bank accounts and sold their houses and all valuable assets just to buy the cheap coins of 2009 and sell them 10 years later when price is on the moon. Unfortunately investments don't work in retrospect or wishful thinking, its a lesson learnt that we need to risk a little if we want the fruits to be sweet.

I saw a rumored story about Real Madrid wanting to join the English Premier League, I do not know if this is true but is such a move even possible In the first  place ?

Is someone generating these stories to try and get people talking on having the possibility of such a move, Has this happened before and don't talk about champions League this is actual league participation.


Quote
Real Madrid have come out to deny reports that they have been looking at the feasibility of joining the English Premier League.

Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo have carried a report claiming that club officials have been studying the possibility of leaving La Liga after a further breakdown in relationship with La Liga chiefs over the recent £1.8bn private equity deal that Spain's top tier struck with CVC Capital Partners.

And Dortmund don't make me surprised in their game against Frankfurt now. Dortmund ended the first half 3-1 ahead and it is going on like that. Haaland is playing awesome again as he has scored 1 goal and made 2 assists so far. This young lad is a very valuable player. Dortmund must be very grateful that he is still at the team.

if E. Haaland and R. Lewandowski play the entire bundesliga this season, there will be a battle for the top scorer between the two world-class strikers Cool
i don't see any other striker in the bundesliga who could be a threat to either of them...

Dont you think it's Too early for this contest, who knows someone else could challenge

Great performance from dortmund against a really good team as always haaland,hazard and reus what a combinarion dortmund today dominated the game especially in the first half they are good i think they have a shot at the title since bayer munich performance is not at top right now.
It was a great team effort and talking of Haaland I guess Haaland is out there showing the world why he remains one of the most sought after striker in the world! His impact on the game was superb and also managed to get two goals from their 5-2 win against Frankfurt.  I just hope things work in their favor to win the Bundesliga.

Today was a good day for the Premier League, no surprise results like we saw with Arsenal! Manchester united won comfortably with an unexpectedly result (5-1), Leicester was equally on the winning side and one result or odds the bookies got wrong was that of Watford vs Aston Villa, honestly without Grealish do you expect Villa to win their first game without their marks man not a chance but I will keep an eye on them and keep betting against them for now  Tongue
4931  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What is the ROI for a stable coin? on: August 14, 2021, 08:48:52 PM
I think that because stablecoins are pegged to currencies like the US dollar chances are it behaves like one, and its ROI should be measured in pip value like currencies behave on the forex markets, but don't take my word for it. I believe stablecoins dont have a decent ROI hence just avoid them unless you still skeptical about them and how to make money out of them.
4932  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: October and December are the months of Crypto ??? on: August 14, 2021, 07:40:25 PM
Between October and December people tend to spend more as we have Thanksgiving holiday, Black Friday and others all in the preparations of Christmas,  so how do these months help crypto when most people will be spending their money to buy presents for their loved ones?? I hope am wrong and would like to see these months to be the bullish periods for bitcoin.

History will repeat itself, every end of december prices go up and depending on how much venture capital adds to its holding amount. I hope Telsa doesn't sell its bitcoins later this year.
I hope you are right mate.
4933  Bitcoin / Press / [2021-08-14] A bunch of MIT students got $100 of free bitcoin in 2014 – some go on: August 14, 2021, 07:32:16 PM
 A bunch of MIT students got $100 of free bitcoin in 2014 – some got rich, some wasted it on sushi

Jeremy Rubin was a sophomore studying computer science and electrical engineering when he decided that he wanted to give every undergraduate student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology $100 worth of bitcoin.

Seven months later – armed with half a million dollars in donations from alumni and bitcoin enthusiasts – Rubin offered to do just that, and 3,108 undergrads took him up on it.

popular cryptocurrency wasn't quite so popular, trading at around $336. Had all recipients of this free bitcoin let their crypto wallets sit idle, the "MIT Airdrop" collective would have been $44.1 million richer by today's prices.

But some students didn't hold on.

Researchers tracing the project, including Christian Catalini, now co-creator of the Diem stablecoin project initiated by Facebook, say that 1 in 10 cashed out in the first two weeks. By the end of the experiment in 2017, 1 in 4 had cashed out. The experiment creators stopped tracking transactions among the cohort after that.

Van Phu, now a software engineer and co-founder of crypto broker Floating Point Group, is still kicking himself for spending a lot of his bitcoin on sushi.

"One of the worst things and one of the best things at MIT is this restaurant called Thelonious Monkfish," said Phu. "I spent a lot of my crypto buying sushi."

Phu wasn't alone in hemorrhaging his virtual coins at this campus dining hotspot.

Quantitative trader Sam Trabucco, who also took part in the experiment, estimated that half the people he knew spent their crypto spoils on fish.

"It was the only restaurant in Cambridge that was accepting bitcoin at the time, and it was a pretty popular spot," he said. The restaurant has since changed its name and retired its bitcoin payment policy.

I wonder If there are any ex students still holding their  bitcoin after receiving the free coins and not forgetting the restaurant that retired bitcoin payments.
4934  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Marketing a new exchange on: August 14, 2021, 05:42:47 PM
Hello Bitcoin Folks!

I am working on a p2p trading platform that lets you trade altcoins, including small cap coins too. This is our goal at least.
Congratulations hope this works out for you.

We're facing some resistance with marketing in mainstream platforms like reddit, twitter, youtube.
It seems that none of these sites want anything to do with us unless we have a minimum 10K ad spend per quarter.
Am going to side with what these platforms are requesting for, running an exchange is different from other projects and as you know there is personal data that will need to be collected and the alike so they need to build some form of trust with its community.

Quote
The problem is that we're still in prototype stage and don't even know if we're targeting the right audience.
Prototype stage then that's has good as beta stage and not yet ready to go out.

What is the best option in this case? Should we just bite the bullet and try it out, or should we continue community building?
Community building is the best way to grow your presence in a more authentic way and without pumping numbers.

The problem is not the children, even if parents were to be strict to keep an eye on their kids they will always find ways to do it behind their parents.  I think gambling companies promosing to pay however can market their products to the world could be paid for their service is the origin of the problem and we all know that we humans are prone to error and temptation and this should be the responsibility of gaming companies not to expose kids to these services.

4936  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum is rising, Is this really the effect of ethereum's London hard fork? on: August 14, 2021, 01:46:17 PM
I can not write that off, in the cryptocurrency world it's the small things that make the difference,  if a simple tweet can make price to react to it what can stop a soft fork which  is more technical from influencing the price??
If you ask me I see the London fork being one of the reasons price of Ethereum is being bullish right now and SECs interest in crypto regulation could be another contributing factor.
4937  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: August 14, 2021, 01:34:36 PM
Manchester United vs Burnley I like what I saw today, and this should be a statement to say they are ready to challenge for the league. Pogba  was unexpectedly on top of things getting himself involved in 3 goals scored so did the Portuguese Mr Bruno Fernandes who scored a hattrick for his personal accolades continuing where he left from last season.  Should United continue with their performance I expect another top 4 finish to come their way.
4938  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: August 14, 2021, 11:50:38 AM
Arsenal made a total of 22 shots, 4 of which were on-target shots. But could not score a single goal. On the other hand, Brentford managed to score 2 goals with only 3 on-target shots. From this, it is easy to guess how weak Arsenal's forward is. A horror awaits Arsenal next season. I wouldn't be surprised if they can't be in the top 10 of the points table.
Arsenal is just a disappointment honestly,  am not even their fan but I feel what their fans feels,  no one will count how many shots they had on target as long as they lost to new comers Brentford their game plan is now unknown,  the team is still in a mess and am seeing Arteta's job might be on the line should these results continue.

I have watched several twitch streams of people gambling and some channels that I follow the guys are good at what they do and play for quite a long time and at the end of the day they don't always win but overall have remained profitable.

Anything like excess gambling
Maybe yes maybe no, If you are going to gamble for a long time and not be profitable then we could say that's excess gambling which changes to chasing your losses but if you win most of your games that's never going to be excess gambling.
