5021  Economy / Gambling / Re: Kryptogamers Hive No KYC Casino on: June 14, 2023, 10:10:46 AM

Almost a number of casinos have now implemented a KYC system, especially large casinos, and all of this is done because of compliance with the licenses that exist in certain casinos.
Even though many gamblers may disagree with such a policy, there are still some casinos that do not require KYC like this casino which can be a recommendation for gambling without risking KYC.
It's just that at the moment this casino only uses coins based on the Hive blockchain and for me it was quite interesting trying to gamble in this casino.

We cannot fight with what is impossible to beat, everything has been focused in that direction, even if we do not want things to happen with kyc, there will always be ways to force ourselves to comply with them, and the other is to use casinos that do not have kyc requirements that are centralized like freebitcoin, apart from this I don't know of others unless they are decentralized casinos that have other rules, but in general I prefer casinos that are centralized, because they offer more security and more guarantee that they do things better like in duelbits, this is It's just that I think and I believe that things should be done that way.

I counter, but isnt this leaning towards non-KYC hubs like Hive blockchain somewhat amiss? Sure, the charm of non-KYC is irresistible, but at what sacrifice? Premier casinos insist on KYC, not for sport but for compliance and your guard. Arent we concerned about our funds going awry? Doesnt security hold more weight than simplicity?

Centralized venues like Duelbits, strictly following KYC, embody responsibility and dependability. If things go downhill, wouldn't you opt for a casino answerable to the law than some enigmatic decentralized stage? Isnt it smarter to risk on the game, not the platform?

The family tried helping, to say the truth, he was arrested at first and he promised to never gamble anymore, he started paying all the loans he took from people to gamble, few family members helped in the payment too and time passed by very fast.

A year later we thought he finally gave up, he looks more serious and no traces of playing bet was detected again, but that's all a lie, because he was playing on a second phone he no one knew he had, and things got worsen.

Gambling is not by force, it's not a must to gamble, it's been a while that I gambled last and before that I don't win but lose all my money to gambling, if those money are not mine or I took a loan, I would have been in big trouble right now, I really pity the life of those gbling addicts
Ever think, how'd we end up in this spot? Society's glorification of gambling as thrill-seeking, overlooking the wreckage it brings, is lamentable.

Lets call it - this guy was trapped in a ruinous habit. The stealth, the deceit—gambling on a secondary phone! An indication of how low he'd fallen. Its pitiful!

Hard facts - gambling's not a ticket to fortune; its a void threatening to consume you. Heard tales of folks trying to outwit the odds? Spoiler alert—they fail. The scales always tip towards the house. Our man here is living proof.

Family stepped in, yet, their hands were tied. Addiction, the cruel beast, reigned supreme. Reminder for all: Gambling' not a stairway to wealth; its a treacherous slide to disaster!
5023  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are BRC-20 stablecoins the next big thing? on: June 14, 2023, 09:33:07 AM
Seeing how minting competition in BRC was going on is pretty much the same like seeing how people were massively joining in the meme coin trend. BRC is prety much the same like meme coin trend and it's only disrupting the bitcoin.

There's no useful project. all of them were exist only for money and no more.

You're right about that. BRC-20 tokens are nothing but pure cash grabs. They don't provide any real use cases to the world. With Bitcoin Core developers planning to block Ordinals inscriptions, you can say goodbye to the BRC-20 craze soon. I think Stably should focus on other chains with built-in smart contract features. But with competitors such as USDT and USDC, I highly doubt it will survive in the long run.

With BRC-20 tokens out of the way, Bitcoin users can finally enjoy low fees and decent confirmation times. That is if the community agrees to take down Ordinals for good. Miners are too greedy to let this all go to waste, so time will tell us what path BTC will take. As long as decentralization wins, we should have nothing to worry about. Just my thoughts Grin
Seems like fast fortune is all the rage, right? Yet, dont overlook, not every BRC-20 token is a greed symbol. Seek and you might find gems

Skepticism towards Stably, I get it. But isnt it hasty to dismiss it while USDT and USDC rule the roost? Don't we champion the dark horse?

As for scrapping Ordinals, it might bring joy to Bitcoin users craving lower fees and speedy confirmations. Yet, can we assume miners will abandon potential profits? We're all playing this greed-survival game. Decentralization is the way, but whats the price?
5024  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to Know the Next PEPE on: June 14, 2023, 09:08:04 AM
No one can predict the next PEPE or memecoin that can go 1000x that's why being lucky will always play a big factor toward meme hunting. For all we know that memes are just a hype coin that certainly have a high risk of losing money or high chance to make huge profit. No one really knows and who knows what will be the new trend this month, this year or even in the next bull cycle. As always just invest what you can afford to lose because in the first place, crypto is a high risk, high reward!
It is as difficult to predict as it is risky. Because when a hype is created in the market, hundreds more projects come to the market using that hype, whose purpose is to scam the investors. As a result few investors who can invest first in the project that created the hype in the market can make money. So the right time to invest in such projects is when the market is silent.

And when everyone knows about the project, the project does not give such a huge return as if it had grown to be silent. So patient and smart thinking investors can make money in crypto. There are many opportunities in the crypto market, but how an investor is taking advantage of those opportunities is the main topic of discussion.
Mulling over memecoins, are we? Its similar to staking on a handicapped racehorse—volatile, high-stakes venture. However, victory isn't guaranteed for every player.

Predicting the next sensation is complex. Sure, early adopters gain, but when market chatter amplifies, that's predator time. Can many perfect timing?

The fervor is dangerous — it can multiply your venture or plummet it. What about the multitudes who've lost all? Wouldn't a patient, intelligent investment plan more important here?
5025  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Circulating supply matters to you? on: June 14, 2023, 08:49:25 AM
What is the fair percentage of a total max supply that are in circulation that can make you invest in a project? It is fine to avoid a project that has low circulating supply? Why? What about if the project is a brand new project and the use case is killing it?
Circulating supply does matter to some extent when I'm considering investing in a project, but it's not the only factor. A fair percentage of the max supply in circulation really depends on the project, its stage of development, and its overall potential. If a project has high supply coin, then likely the value of each coin would be very less. If the supply goes high all of the sudden, this will indeed crash the price of the coin. If a coin has very low supply, it might raise some concerns, because very likely the developers are using the low supply to manipulate the market.  The main thins is, you should dig deeper into the project's tokenomics, roadmap, and see how the team plans to distribute the coins in the market. If the project has a killer usecase, I doubt supply would  be an issue.
I believe that there isnt a 'one-size-fits-all' answer to the fair percentage of the max supply in circulation that would make a project attractive for investment.

Regarding low supply coins, wouldn't it be rather hasty to infer manipulation on part of the developers? After all, a low supply doesn't inherently signify market manipulation!

I do agree with your view on the importance of the project's tokenomics and roadmap. It's always critical to dig deeper. But your point about a killer use case potentially overriding supply concerns—aren't we treading on thin ice here?
5026  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do meme coins have a future? on: June 14, 2023, 08:32:11 AM
Meme coins like SHIB can surprise the market and increase dramatically, even during bear markets. These unexpected developments can be driven by factors such as growing community interest, celebrity endorsements, or the development of a new project. While meme coins may initially lack utility or a clear use case, they can evolve over time. SHIB is working on the development of Shibarium, which indicates an effort to introduce utility to the coin. Similarly, other meme coins like PEPE could explore avenues to enhance their utility and recognition in the future. The crypto market is dynamic and ever-evolving, providing opportunities for meme coins to transform and deliver tangible value. However, it is important to approach these developments with caution and conduct thorough research. Evaluating the long-term viability of a meme coin requires consideration of factors such as the project's roadmap, development progress, potential adoption, and the competitive landscape.
Are meme coins future stars, or just clowns in the crypto circus? SHIB and PEPE have reveled in attention, thanks to online cheerleaders and celebrity mentions.

However, should we bypass the implications of these market swings? Crypto, like all markets, is ruled by supply and demand. The frenzy around these tokens, while gripping, lacks longevity in value. Isnt real worth born from use and uptake?

Positive strides like SHIB's Shibarium, indicating a push towards value creation, are laudable. Yet, in the sprawling crypto territory, constant novelty is survival. While meme coins offer amusing diversions, let's make our investments based on meticulous research and astute analysis
5027  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will China takeover as the leader in blockchain and start the new bull market? on: June 14, 2023, 08:06:29 AM
We need to monitor market trends and global events to make correct investment decisions. The imposition of unclear regulations and the departure of developers from crypto-related projects in the US could also be a factor in China becoming a leader in blockchain technology and crypto.

Whether China could take over the leadership in blockchain and launch a new bull market in crypto remains a prediction and uncertain. China is showing a particular interest in blockchain technology and has launched efforts to develop and use this technology in various fields.

China is too unpredictable and it is primarily interested only in its digital yuan, which is a direct competitor to cryptocurrencies. I am not sure that with such interests, China will develop cryptocurrency as well as the United States. I am more inclined to think that Hong Kong or the Arab Emirates could be the global leader in cryptocurrencies. Too much different news is coming out of those regions, but I certainly wouldn't count on China's support for the entire crypto community.
Interesting perspective, although I would argue that China' primary interest in its digital yuan does't preclude them from becoming a blockchain leader! Why cant a country pursue its digital currency and support the growth of crypto?

Remember, the cryptocurrency is a complex interplay of market trends, technology adoption, and regulatory environment. That said, why do we view China' unpredictability as a hurdle rather than an opportunity for surprise advancements?

As for Hong Kong and the Arab Emirates taking the helm, it's not implausible, but aren't we overlooking the fact that these regions, while dynamic, still have to contend with their own challenges? Any which way, its a captivating tale unfolding, wouldnt you agree?
5028  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you trade altcoins during the bull run or just hodl? on: June 14, 2023, 07:43:33 AM
Next year is your first bull run? You sound too confident there and it looks like you know what can happen in the future. I think you can say this because everyone is feeling positive about the Bitcoin halving event, that it will pump the whole market. I'm not being negative about it but there is also a possibility that a bull run will happen earlier. It could be on this year, who knows?

Or it won't happen at all in the next few years. Many people are confident that a bull market will happen very soon, this year or next year. No one is trying to prepare for negative scenarios that are just as likely to happen in the next 2 or 3 years. Right now it could be that the market is at the very beginning of a global collapse, where a historical bullish cycle is replaced by a prolonged correction that could last for very many years. There are too many positive people in cryptocurrency, and the market, as you know, always plays against the crowd. You have to be prepared for that.
Are we clinging to the halving, relishing in unjustified optimism? Likely! Crypto thrives on its tempestuous character.

But ask yourself. Are we victims of pessimism, fearing a global downfall? Or is this just a market self-correction, a bull rally breather?

Indeed, the market often defies the herd. But, strategic investments and diligent studies often bear dividends. We should prepare for downturns. But isnt it also essential to keep hope and exploit market opportunities?

To excel in the crypto universe, uncertainty must be our ally. After all, isnt it the volatility that makes Bitcoin so attractive?
5029  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New coin - PEPE on: June 14, 2023, 07:24:14 AM
True, people only buy this to sell it for higher price. There's no utility or usability. All of things related to the meme coin was just pure speculation only. There are so many problems that exist in the market right now.
It seems like that if people were making the wrong choice by buying scam meme coin.

"Meme" coins are the problem. They're congesting underlying blockchain networks rendering them unusable. Both ETH and BTC have high fees because of the "meme" coins craze (either as ERC-20 or BRC-20 tokens). Scammers know that people are looking to make a quick buck, so they use "meme" coins as the perfect tool to attract foolish investors into their own little trap. Turns out it's working out as many people are getting "rekt" in the process.

If there's only one "meme" coin I'd trust, that would be Dogecoin. It's the oldest "meme" coin in existence with a tried-and-tested blockchain network. The rest are simply pure garbage. Crypto land often behaves in many strange and bizarre ways, so I wouldn't be surprised if PEPE rises all the way to glory for a short period of time. As long as you don't go crazy spending your money on "meme" coins, there should be nothing to worry about. Just my thoughts Grin
Meme coins, crypto investors' nightmare, no? Or, are they merely amplifying our innate love for risk, speculation, and quick wealth? Although meme coins add to network traffic and fees on Ethereum and Binance, they captivate with their affordability and accessibility. Dogecoin, the original meme, has proven resilient. Does that mean reliability? Maybe. But even giants stumble. Navigating the crypto world requires wisdom. Lets not be enticed by meme coins' allure; instead, invest wisely. After all, profit over meme, right?
5030  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will you invest in a project that might take years to outshine the market?? on: June 14, 2023, 07:06:06 AM
I found out in the blockchain world, many people are losing patience when they start to invest in a project. Their understanding about "long term" is no longer years but weeks.

Some project need time to build and shape. What do you think?
It depends on the age of the investor.

Nowadays, some of the investors see crypto as a get-rich quick scheme, and maybe that's also the reason why most of them can't even commit to hold a coin for long term. I agree with what you said that a project takes years to develop that's why most of the projects are creating their project first then launching it to the public, so that it will not take too much time to develop because that might affect the trust of the investors. Well, let's also add the risks of it as well. We know that a project can just run away not leaving any traces at all. We know that a project that has been existing for years can just abandon the coin, leaving the investors, and run away with the money that they got. This is also the reason why investors don't have the patience to hold a coin for a very long time unless it's been existing for a very long time, and many people trust it.

Some project really needs time to build, and shape I agree. On the other hand, if you will continue to develop your project, and people see it beneficial to their everyday lives for whatever reason it is, they will support that project, hold the coin for maybe mid to long term. As for me, I'm at my mid-20's, so I can still risk some of my money to some new projects, but I opted not too because I'd rather invest it into some old projects, and some dividend paying stocks out there.
Is it really the investors’ fault for expecting quick returns? Or is it the system that feeds on their impatience? Crypto, by its very nature, is volatile, explosive, unpredictable. People are drawn to that wild, untamed potential for fast gains, arent they? Crypto is like the wild west of investing! Quick money, big risks. That’s why the older, more "traditional" projects seem too slow for some. Its not entirely about trust issues, man, it's about the rush, the potential for instant profit.

Projects running away, abandoning coins, breaking trust – you cant put that on impatient investors, can you? That's an issue with the projects’ integrity, not the temperament of the investors! Its high time we stop victim-blaming and put the responsibility where it belongs – with the project developers!
5031  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Bounty hunter is considered as investors with a big patience. on: June 14, 2023, 06:43:19 AM

then another thing to watch out for is when the project goes down some bounty hunters and investors might panic and sell their tokens.

My experience tells me that sometimes to sell bounty rewards as soon as it hit the exchange may be a good decision. I have noticed some bounty posters who have complained of not making profit from the rewards after they left it believing it will increase and some reduce to nothing after a while. For me I decide not to regret when I take decision to sell.
It is quite logical to sell immediately after receiving the award. But now most Westing Time projects have been introduced, so everything cannot be sold. Yes, and such approaches are better for projects. And then the depreciation of the coin immediately upon entering the market noticeably reduces faith in the coin.

Logical indeed on which going in the past on which it would really be just that ideal on selling out those coins while it would be listed out on exchanges but thats a big what if., because we know that most projects doesnt really end up on getting listed on platforms and mostly be traded on DEX and even the worst ending up on having no value because there's no demand into it. This is why as a bounty hunter and on the time that
they would really be getting their coins/tokens then it would be wise that should sell out immediate. The sad thing on here is that on the time that the value had decreased down, then they are the ones
whose really that get blamed on when there's a dump without even trying to look at that those investors are the main dumpers in the first place. Come in mind on how small the allocation is when it comes
to bounty or marketing stuff?
Your notion about selling coins immediately post-reward is compelling. But isnt it a bit narrow-minded? Isnt the crypto-world a bit more nuanced than that? The vast majority of Westing Time projects, as you correctly pointed out, have been launched. Yet, not all assets meet a successful fate on exchanges. Tokens get lost in the shuffle, their value fading into oblivion due to a lack of demand. So, a bounty hunter could logically rush to cash out. However, this haste can be problematic, no?

What happens when the tokens' value decreases? Scapegoating starts. The bounty hunters shoulder the blame for a market dump. But isnt that ironic? Arent the investors, the ones who initially inflate the price, the real culprits behind these market dumps?We need to question ourselves here: Is it justified to blame these bounty hunters who hold a minor share in the total distribution? Isnt the core issue the shaky foundations of these new projects? We need to critically examine this!
5032  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you stop gambling (sports betting, casino e.t.c)? on: June 13, 2023, 06:36:58 PM
Gambling brings so much joy especially when you're on the winning side, when things are all in your favor it just seems like you should never stop. But when it gets bad, you look for a way to pour out your anger, either on someone or on something.
When someone is addicted to gambling I feel it's worst than one who's addicted to drugs.

So much has been said about betting companies regarding how they should be responsible in helping those who are addicted to gambling, although is really hard to do so on there own path because gamblers can't be monitored.
I don't know if booking an appointment with a therapist would help or is something you as a gambler who wants out should do on your own.

The question is if you're a gambler or have someone who is, what's the best way to help out. And what's your story on escaping that addiction (gambling)...

How do you fight this battle?

Life is not as difficult as some claim, if I try something that requires money and it doesn't work, I will give in to trying another strategy; if that also doesn't work, I will quietly give up considering the implications for my health or my bank account. Those who are looking to use gambling as a way to get rich quickly are the only ones who get frustrated when their predictions don't match te results of their events, gambling doesn't have to become an addiction, but if it does, those who can't help themselves should seek help from a therapist, and those who feel they are losing more money than they are making should take a break, is as simple as that!  
Outsmarting a gambling addiction, is it feasible? Its as complex as the gamble itself. Your approach: attempt, fail, adapt, quit if needed - they sounds too simplistic, doesnt it belittle the gravity of the issue? Can it be that easy?! Addiction, in all forms, is a psychological maze. A mental snare. Its not a 'snap' decision to break free. It requires expert help, behavioural adjustments, and a strong support base. Also, implying gambling isnt an issue unless finances are at stake is a tad misguided. Its more than money—its the relinquishment of control, the strain on relationships, the dissolution of tranquility. Yes, a therapist's aid is a good start towards regaining control. But remember, its not a lone battle. A supportive surrounding is crucial in this journey.

Vinicius is indeed a young player who continues to show rapid improvement. Maybe he could even become a mainstay player for Real Madrid. In fact, Vinicius is currently having the honor of wearing a new number on his back, namely number 7 which has always been the most sacred number at the Real Madrid club, which has always given birth to football legends like CR7 and Raul. But even so I think that at this time Real Madrid will still be looking for a star player in the transfer market to be able to replace the position that has been left by Benzema.

For now I haven't received any news regarding players who are really suitable for Real Madrid apart from Kane. it's just that Real Madrid are unlikely to go after Kane. But for next season, maybe Real Madrid will focus on pursuing Mbappe, who reportedly has only one year left on his contract at PSG and will not be renewed. so that next season Real Madrid will definitely want Mbappe no matter what.

Vinicius' star seems to be on the rise, offering a promising prospect. To don the '7' at Real Madrid is no child's play - its like to shouldering the heritage of titans like CR7 and Raul. The problem of finding a replacement for Benzema, however, is quite a problem . Kane' mention warrants a nod, for he is indeed a striker of exceptional caliber. However, the odds of Real Madrid pursuing Kane mirror the likelihood of me hitting the jackpot tomorrow (in other words, slim). On the topic of Mbappe, it's the kind of hearsay that sets the football realm on Twitter ablaze, doesnt it? It seems the cosmos might be favoring Real Madrid, with whispers of Mbappe declining a contract extension at PSG. The question remains, can Real Madrid make it happen?
5034  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Turkish Cup 2022-2023 Season Prediction Thread on: June 13, 2023, 06:00:15 PM
Fenerbahce won the game, I couldn't watch the game and I couldn't place a bet, anyway, this victory is something that at least gave something positive to Jorge Jesus who also announced his withdrawal from the team, he will no longer be Fenerbahce's coach and From what I could understand from the interview he gave on a TV in Portuguese, the reason for his withdrawal from the team even with this great achievement and due to the way the Turkish league works, the postponements of games and other things that he saw that happened that in a certain way form contributed a lot to fenerbahce losing the title race

since jorge jesus joined fenerbahce his main objective has always been to win the turkish league, he made that clear during last season when the flamengo wanted him to return to brazil he said he could not leave until his mission to win the league was reached, but the way the Turkish league was or is managed when there are serious events like the earthquake and other factors did not please jorge jesus and I think that many coaches who were in the same situation as jorge jesus would also ask to leave the team because in this way they will leave the Turkish place. in my opinion it was the best decision he made, he said he would stay in portugal waiting for other opportunities.

they did a good job and congratulations to him and the fenerbahce players and all the management. The question now is to know what future Fenerbahce will have next season, I very much doubt that they will win the league next season
Fenerbahçe snatched the cup after a near-decade, coinciding with Jorge Jesus' shock exit—its reality TV in the making! The victory, while heartening, was't a shocker; they owned the field. The problem, though, is Jesus' departure. Known for his league-winning ambitions, his absence leaves the future hazy. He had his motives for exiting the Turkish circuit with its unique quirks. Candidly, without him, I can't picture Fenerbahçe atop next season, but who knows, life's full of surprises!

Sevilla have the same dominance Real Madrid have in the Champions League here. Sevilla are called as the king of the Europa League as you know and the thing I wonder the most is whether any other team will be able to change this. It is really not easy to beat Sevilla about the number of titles achieved right now. While Sevilla have 7 titles the closest opponents have 3.

And those opponents are Liverpool, Juventus, Inter and Atletico Madrid. All of them are normally teams seen in the Champions League mostly. But next season we will be watching Liverpool in the Europa League. This can be quite interesting. Sevilla are going to be in the Champions League maybe but they might drop down here again who knows.

It would be really lovely to watch a finale between Sevilla and Liverpool.  Grin  I think Liverpool would be one step ahead in that case.
So, Liverpool is tackling the Europa League next season? Well, game on! Liverpool possesses a formidable squad, but Europa is Sevilla's domain. They've seized the trophy seven times, and I don't predict a shift in this pattern. It's as if Sevilla's got the Europa League's master key.

We're here for the football extravaganza, and a Liverpool-Sevilla face-off would be nothing short of spectacular. Even with Liverpool's top form, Sevilla is poised to outshine them. Seriously, would Sevilla, considering their legacy, let the crown slip effortlessly? Certainly not!
5036  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have You Experienced Winning Bets By Upsets on: June 13, 2023, 05:13:18 PM
Yes, I was amused by the question. It's happened to me once or twice, betting in anger and at that very moment getting lucky and winning a big win. At that point I got over my anger and stopped betting, leaving with the money.

When we play, it is very difficult to control emotions, as I have said before, if we could control emotions, I think that there would not be so many problems of arterial hypertension caused by emotional things, <...> the same adrenaline that the casino produces in us makes us more invincible, and makes us make very risky bets where we can being left with nothing, and that is what should be avoided in a casino, be it physical or online.

That is the problem that perfect gambling would be perfectly rational, and that is impossible, because apart from being rational we are emotional beings. The point is above all to try to control as far as possible that these episodes do not happen to you too much and that when they do they do not leave a significant hole in your finances.
What can be done is something very simple, allocate the money to lose, and no more from there and play as you like, of course it is not that you do a martingale and goodbye to money in a short time, which I always advise in measure The fun is that minimum bets are made, this so that the balance stretches as much as possible, and also to have a total understanding of the game. For me it is the only way to interact with money + emotions, of course these recommendations are so that the subject of emotions can be discussed longer and have greater pleasure, and if the person seeks to gain, which is what is very normal, it can be done as long as the balance destined to play is respected.

We're emotive beings, and sometimes, our sentiments obstruct clear thinking. Taming these emotional uprisings is crucial for maintaining financial health.

You propose a limit loss tactic - dedicating a fixed amount to lose and sticking to it. Quite an idea! But isnt this acceptance of defeat even before the cards are dealt? Additionally, you advocate for minimal stakes to lengthen the gambling experience and learn more. A commendable concept, but doesn't it also extend the risk duration?

Shouldnt the mastery of the game and careful stewardship of our earnings lead the way? Yet, we cant overlook the exhilarating potential of a win - the captivating essence of gambling, right?

Maybe yes, because everything we say is an assumption. included, as you said. and even we agree, that the reason that is closest to reality is a fantastic salary. in theory, at the end of his career, Benzema will not earn as much as he would with his new club Al Ittihad. the fact is, that money is the real trigger. it's just that, we also can not rule out other supporting factors. apart from his age and the money factor in return for accepting the offer, cultural factors were also one of the factors that made Benzema willing to leave Real Madrid. at least, it makes more sense if we refer to multiple approaches from various factors regardless of the salary offered. because, there are many considerations for European stars to refuse to play in the competition. one of them, the issue of sharia law which is not as free as in Europe. not to mention, cultural and language issues. I'm pretty sure Messi has also previously considered it from all aspects until he chose MLS.
Are we really assuming Benzema swapped 'El Clasico' for Saudi Pro League merely chasing dollars? Sure, the financial pull is significant, but there are other variables at work. Benzema himself cited his Islamic faith as instrumental in his decision, should we disregard that?

What about the charm of a novel adventure? He's been a Madrid stalwart for years. Perhaps it's a longing for a fresh start, a rekindling of his footballing spirit. The Saudi league, with Ronaldo as part of its glamour, is becoming increasingly attractive.

Asserting money as the single motivation appears overly simplistic. Life and decisions within it are intrinsically complex.

As of yesterday, the departures have started in Fenerbahce.We have seen the news of the departure of both the team's technical director Jorge Jesus and the team's top scorer Enner Valencia.Thus, Fenerbahce needs to sign both a technical director and a top scorer.Let's not forget that before the departure of these two names, the club announced the transfer of Ryan Kent.Now, if I am not mistaken, the transfer of Edin Dzeko is on the agenda.But I am in favor of the transfer of a younger player.37-year-old Dzeko will not be able to run much and will not be able to make an effort. Dzeko, who is 37 years old, won't be able to run much and I think he won't be able to make an effort.
What if Dzeko's age isn't a hurdle, but an opportunity for Fenerbahce? Consider this: Dzeko, like fine wine, has improved over time, reflected in his Serie A and Champions League outings. Could this benefit us?

Rather than an aging forward, view him as a mentor to our youngsters. His impact may lessen on-field, but his locker-room guidance could be priceless. Should we ignore his injury risk and focus on the larger benefit? Is this mere speculation or does it merit thought?

I guess women's football is two to three decades behind the men's variety. Back in the 1990s, we used to have such one-sided matches in men's football as well. But now the gap between the top teams and the tier-2 teams have narrowed down. Same will happen with the women's game, but it is going to take some time and a lot of investment from the FIFA. I agree that we will not witness an equivalent of Morocco reaching the semi-finals within the next decade in women's football. Because the women's game is confined to a handful of countries as of now.

I think the gap between men team is so small, because a lot of team now have legionnaires from different countries. Players learn from them, exchange experience, they develop. Perhaps I am not that familiar with women football, but I think their team dont have players from other countries. If we take that screenshot as an example. England women football team probably have different players from other countries in their football clubs. As to Latvia - I think they play only among themselves (locals). And when they face such team as England, they dont know what to do.
Isnt the whole picture more nuanced? In our hyper-connected world, its only natural for mixed-gender teams to emerge. Football is not mere sport; it's a universal dialect voiced through skillful footwork! While men's football holds significant global sway, isnt it due to its early start? Yes, womens' football hasnt achieved equal international representation, but it's blooming! Ever known a "late bloomer"? Certain nations may appear talent-starved, but isnt that true for some men's teams too? The destiny of women's football rests with FIFA's resolve to invest and grow the sport.

Do not place a bet with the mindset of getting the bag at all cost, you'll end up emptying more than you can afford to lose on just 1 game and if luck isn't on your side, you may end up not even getting the bag in the long run.

Be guided.
That's why I once said that for gambling, change the mindset to get big money, let alone big wins, play with what makes us feel happy with some of the games in the casino so that we are not too stressed with the real goal that could make our money run out at one time. just play, don't hesitate to try some casino games. There's nothing wrong with it, be it slots or other games, looking for luck and new experiences in gambling.

But on the other hand we also need to realize that the dealer will always win and get our money, so play with money that we are ready to lose, don't have high expectations that playing gambling will make us rich let alone make us a lot of money, changing the mindset will help us calmer to play gambling.  Wink
Indeed! The mentality behind our gambling often shapes our financial outcomes. Remember, casinos arent charities; they're profit machines! Although gambling can spark excitement and foster camaraderie, never forget the house holds the advantage—that's the game's crux, right? Lets be wise and define our risk boundaries—not just in monetary losses, but time and emotional stakes. Lets dismiss the idea of gambling as a shortcut to wealth or independence. Striking jackpot? Possible, but the odds are against us.
