5101  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ready for 2025 run otherwise its time and money wasting on: July 24, 2021, 09:23:45 PM


2018 ATH passed and went 3x 65000USD to BITCOIN. Now we again expecting to go 100,000 and 130000. I think its useless point now. its better to wait 2025. just accumulate usdt and ready for 2025.


There is no investment gain in holding USDT which should not even be considered an investment in the first place,  unless you are saying you don't want to risk any of your money.

Holding of bitcoin for another 4 years would be rewarding because there is a possibility of more investors coming on board, more countries legalizing crypto and miners would have resolved their minning issues....so much potential for the future  btc is the way to go.

is the saga of Ronaldo over and he will stay at Juventus?



The vice president has spoken.

source: https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1418998166704345089
Where there any doubts of Cristiano Ronaldo staying? I don't think so, we fans want to create unnecessary transfer hype when we know his happy in Italy and not going anywhere.
Besides what price Tag would a G.O.A.T like Cristiano carry...don't say his age would bring price down.
5103  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: CEO of Twitter has full control of the Bitcoin market by banning Elon Musk on: July 24, 2021, 05:24:24 PM
Bitcoin is still new and has a smaller market cap than other investments that one famous person on Twitter can influence the prices of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.
This is partly the truth, his quite an influencer but the pandemic has made people to be online more than usual and with a few retweets of what Elon tweets about gets people excited and for all we know word travels faster on these online channels.

I am not a huge fan of Musk manipulating the market for his benefit but i am not in favor of banning him from Twitter solely because of that, if he is conveying fake news then then Twitter will tag him as manipulated news and till now Musk is smart enough to avoid these tags because he is just voicing his opinion and you cannot ban someone for just voicing his opinion.
I would like this to happen but fact of the matter is Musk has both feet dipped in cold and hot water such that at times he creates a bullish atmosphere for crypto which we all love but when he means to be bearish this is the part about him that we all hate him for..

Arsenal planning to bid 40 mil pounds and 130k weekly wages to Tammy Abraham? As John Henry would say - what are they smoking there at the Emirates?
What's with the Premier League and trying to hunt for players that are just next door??
Is this Abraham move really going to happen before I call this trash can speculation.


When I started watching football, Arsenal was a synonym for a club with smart transfer policy, finding bargains on the market and turning them into superstars. After Wenger left, they are totally lost and are making one mistake after another.
We all knew Arsenal for this magic touch of turning trash to gold when Wenger was around, now things have turned into a failed business.

Quote
Chelsea must be laughing right now, Abraham is decent, but this is definitely overkill.
It's definitely going to be everyone not Chelsea alone,hope things change for them this semester.
5105  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: July 24, 2021, 05:11:42 AM
Chelsea are moving from Haaland and now they are focusing on Inter Milan officials Belgian striker, Romelu Lukaku, if any club wants to sign him this summer.
Romelu Lukaku had a great season at Inter & has become a valuable team member there. I don't see why he would want to leave in a hurry for the English Premier League at the calling of Chelsea, this move won't happen.

only case that might make Inter think about selling Lukaku, is the arrival of an offer exceeding 120 million euros.
Money talks,  stories walk! If Chelsea are ready to spend this much which is unlikely, Lukaku will be at Stamford.
5106  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should online gambling companies be responsible for harm related activities? on: July 23, 2021, 05:34:35 PM
Have these companies taken any steps to minimize the harm related to online gambling?  Is their CSR functional?
I think it's easier for gambling companies that are setup IRL to perform their CSR against gambling addiction when they see their players occasionally were they can tell if their patrons is in their right mental state or stressed because of gambling unlike online were it's difficult to monitor every players gambling patterns to offer some counseling to help them.

My question is, should online gambling companies be responsible for the harm related to their activities because of their current failures in the implementation and control of CSR policies?

For starters there is an age limit for you to play on these platforms and If you are agree to their terms and conditions, you are pretty much saying you can make sound decisions which makes it your responsibility and not the gambling campanies.
5107  Bitcoin / Press / [2021-07-23] Tesla (TSLA) CEO Elon Musk Again Moves Crypto Prices on: July 23, 2021, 01:07:53 PM
Tesla, Inc. (TSLA) CEO Elon Musk is at it again. The irrepressible entrepreneur, whose tweets are blamed for crashing the price of Bitcoin (BTCUSD) earlier this year, again moved prices in cryptocurrency markets yesterday.1


At the B Word conference, Musk disclosed that his private space exploration company SpaceX owned Bitcoin and held out the prospect of Tesla allowing customers to resume purchases of its cars using the cryptocurrency. Musk also said that he owned Ethereum (ETHUSD) and provided commentary on Dogecoin (DOGEUSD).

Investors, weary of a selloff in crypto markets the previous day, bid up prices for all three coins. Bitcoin price jumped by as much as 3% to $32,805.55, minutes after a video of the conference was released. At 1:49 UTC today, Bitcoin was trading at $32,093, up 1.73% from its price a day earlier.

The price of Ethereum also spiked by 6.3% from its morning valuation, and Dogecoin soared up by 10.9% to trade at $0.2101 in the same timeframe as a result of Musk's comments.

Musk's boost to cryptocurrency markets was a relief to investors. Bitcoin had dipped below $30,000 on Monday, raising investor fears that crypto markets were heading into a prolonged downturn.

Bitcoin Has 'A Lot of Potential'
During yesterday's discussion, Musk said that Bitcoin has "a lot of potential." But he discounted the possibility for the cryptocurrency's base layer to become a medium of transactions because it had scarcity baked into its design. The base layer of Bitcoin consists of its blockchain, which is slow at processing transactions and will only ever mine 21 million Bitcoin.

Abraham 'open' to move
Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham is 'open' to joining Arsenal this summer, according to reports.

The former Bristol City loanee appears destined to leave Stamford Bridge and test himself elsewhere after falling out-of-favour under Thomas Tuchel.


Perfect' Maddison claim
Speaking on the Arsenal Lounge YouTube channel, journalist Fabrizio Romano has opened up on Arsenal's pursuit of James Maddison.

The Gunners have been linked with a move for the Leicester City star and Romano says he is seen as "perfect" for Mikel Arteta's style.

He said: “It will be really, really difficult to sign him this summer. It’s true that Arsenal have an interest in the player, it’s true that they consider him perfect for their playstyle, so they consider him as a potentially fantastic signing, but at the moment it’s complicated with Leicester, so if the conditions change, maybe they can try, but at the moment, it’s not an advanced negotiation.”

Source https://www.football.london/arsenal-fc/transfer-news/live-arsenal-transfers-news-abraham-21123805


Madison not going anywhere, just what I thought.  This player is still an important part of the team and his services are still needed at Leicester.
5109  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2021-07-16] Police confiscate, destroy 1000+ ASICs in Malaysia on: July 23, 2021, 07:34:04 AM
So 3 days ago, they raided a house and confiscated about 100 ASICs: Source: https://www.newsarawaktribune.com.my/police-find-bitcoin-mining-operations-in-house/
Was it so obvious that they used illegal electricity or its Vigilantes who are anti bitcoin doing the whistle blowing?

Note: the crime was simply electricity theft, not mining itself.
It's really hard being a crypto miner and at the same time remain profitable. Afaik all what the miner was trying to do was find a way to maximize profits in a creative way Roll Eyes,  hope he can bail out his ASICs and mine the btc legally this time.

@toma: yeah I guess I enjoy losing a lot and try to save them all with a big upset. Didn't work out today. When is Hubbard? 5/1 looks goooood.
August 2 i think. I'd like to read what someone who follows weightlifting closely have to say about the main fav to win (1.16 odds), Li Wenwen, and Hubbard who's the second favorite in the bookies at 4 odds followed by the rest of the competitors who start at double digits odds. I'll keep an eye on the the line movement over the next few days
These are my kind of games, going against the bookies favorite ...bet on the second and third favourites and hope for the best,  by the way I have seen one or two athletes withdraw from their games because they tested positive for Corona and in such a case would the bookie pay at full odds if Wenwen was forced to pull out and my winner came from my picks??

Olympic soccer(football) is much different than all other major soccer events.  Because the team barely resembles a typical national team it's hard to get a feel in such a small amount of time together on who would have  an advantage over the other team.  Betting on Olympic soccer seems to be a dart throw to me I wouldn't go near it.
Very true and I realized this today when I was watching the match played between Brazil and Germany.

Richarlison scored a hatrick in the first 30 minutes and missed a couple of good chances which made Germany look like a team that was being taught how to play football. When I tried to see if I recognized some names, I think I saw less than 10 familiar names from both sides, Which doesn't help in building strong team's.
5113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: July 22, 2021, 03:10:51 PM
For Mancity signing Harry Kane into their squad next season will be the best transfer of the season.Kane is not just a good replacement to Aguero,but a better replacement to injury prone Aguero.It will be a very good deal for City if the deal could be finalised.
Harry Kane is indeed being linked with Man City, but it seems Tottenham has no intention of letting their striker go (perhaps it is a trick to get a high price). If Harry Kane's transfer to Man City does not happen, then Man City could make an offer for Erling Haaland (who might also be difficult to sign) or Robert Lewandowski from Bayern Munich.

It was just published in some newspaper article that Manchester City allegedly plans to exchange four players for Harry Kane with Tottenham.
Wait, are you guys saying Harry Kane is still a Tottenham Hotspur player, thought this was a done deal!

Quote
Among those four players is Raheem Sterling the newspaper claims. Four players sounds like a massive exaggeration to me if they pay a transfer fee on top. Raheem Sterling is quite good as well. I believe the transfer will happen somehow. If rumors are so huge it usually also happens in the end and I am sure Harry Kane will do his part as well.
What kind of deal is this , Harry Kane to be swapped with 4 other players and among those is Raheem Sterling who I think would cost more than Kane himself... if this is the deal then its not happening!

Quote
I guess at this stage of his career he is sick of playing for Tottenham.
I thought he had a wonderful campaign, and also got the golden boot if am not mistaken, this performance doesn't like that of a sad man.
5114  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is more real than money in the Bank on: July 22, 2021, 11:47:27 AM


Few years after forcing everyone to take their gold to the bank, the US president, Nixon in 1971 stopped everyone from having the right to convert their gold to fiat. Isn't that stealing?
Stealing might be an understatement, if the people were forced to take their most priced possessions to the bank and blocked from getting fiat,this is actually day light robbery!

Government resent bitcoin because they can't control it like they did in 1971. Very soon, it will be illegal to own bitcoin in some countries, not because bitcoin is bad, but because bitcoin gives you the power to own your money. Bitcoin is more real than your money in the bank. Be your own bank by investing and learning about bitcoin.

https://www.federalreservehistory.org/essays/gold-convertibility-ends

Bitcoin is financial freedom, what you see is literally what you get, unlike fiat which could be just numbers reflecting on your account but should you want to use your money the bank can bar you from using your own money which makes crypto the best option by miles.

God damn me. I picked Egypt for a huge 20/1 upset against Spain, but that played out to a draw. Should have listened to myself and taken a small handicap or Egypt/draw it was 8/1.

I don't know why I feel all these big competitions from now on will be ending in draws like what we saw in the EURO games and so far I have caught two draws already, thought not the Egypt match.. Will this continue I think so.

Quote
What do you think of Japan/S Africa? Another 16/1 tasty temptation on the Africans.
The Japanese are quite a disciplined team and South Africa not a bad team, I fancy  the under 1.5 goals and under 3.5 yellow cards.

Just incase through in the draw too for this match, don't miss it like you did with Egypt.

5119  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: High discount in presale on: July 21, 2021, 02:32:05 PM
These discounts are meant to get some hype and get the pre-sale going
and not that it's suppose to turn back after some years and affect the project.

Btw these discounts are structured in such a way that after so many coins have been sold, the price jumps to the next phase until the coins are sold at full value. But should a project not have a pricing structure and sell all at a discount,  you should be worried could be a potential scam.
5120  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Binance ceasing support for stock tokens on: July 21, 2021, 02:21:01 PM
An unfortunate  development, Am sure Binance adopting stock tokens to be listed on its platform had invited all sorts of regulations and they felt the pressure.

From the look of things the only way out seems to be to part ways with stock tokens and run the business without much interference and stick to cryptos only.
