521  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [A POLL] Without Chances of Making Money, Will you still be gambling? on: January 04, 2024, 08:05:49 PM
Of course why not. Since it will be for entertainment I will pay to have that fun. I could remember going to the amusement park with my uncle and his family.the games there are to be paid for before you c an have access to play them. I will see it like a service business where you pay and play any game of your choice. But let the truth be told I wouldn't do that often. I will only do it once in a while unlike now that you can win or loss. This is what makes it more interesting due to the thrill. But I don't think that we will have more gamblers like we have today because at first most gamblers gamble for profit before they will realize the main purpose of gambling that is should be for fun.

523  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Why does the halving increase the price? on: January 04, 2024, 04:47:25 PM
- Why would people invest loads of money in BTC after the halving and not before?

I believe, it is connected to FOMO. Halving symbolises something new, some changes. It feels like there are less and less bitcoin available. And more and more people start worrying that they don't own any so far. That is because they buy. And they notice that many people around are buying as well. And the effect becomes more massive.
Those who bought after the halving are those who get carried by the hypes and some people are like that, they don't invest if that commodity is not the talk of the town on how it has increased in price, this makes them to feel that is the best time for them to invest, thinking that the price will continue to pump till infinity and vefore they know it they will miss out from taking profit and run at loss the moment the bull run is over.

If Cagliari achieves a miracle, it will set an example for other teams in Serie A. -snip
Serie A has only been going on for half the season, with the points obtained by 4 teams above Cagliari which only has the highest difference of 5 points, it is still very possible for Cagliari to out from relegation zone at the end of the season. What they need is not a miracle, but they must be able to improve their performance at least when they meet teams that are equal to their strength. If they manage to win all their matches against teams in the relegation zone and 4 above, then Cagliari can stay in Serie A next season.
That's right, this season's journey is still quite long and there's still plenty of time for Cagliari to improve and get out of the relegation zone and in my opinion, it's not just Cagliari, but several teams at the bottom of the table definitely have the same ambition to build their team. much stronger in order to get out of the relegation zone.
I think it's too early to talk about teams that have the potential to be relegated because I think they (lower teams) still have time to improve and recover.
Just as we cannot be too sure of who will win the league is the same way that we cannot y which club will be on relegation now till the last month of the season. You should know that football is full of surprises and we should expect the unexpected as time goes by. Cagliari is facing difficulties since this season and if they don't improve, they might go to relegation, but if they improve in their performance, they will still remain in the league. As the season keep drawing close to the end, you will be surprised with the performance of some weak clubs.

Most investors have put their hope and believe that SEC will approve Bitcoin ETF by January 10th based on this, a lot of investors and institutions have prepared down by stashing their portfolio waiting for the approval, but it might be a big disappointment to them if SEC didn't approve it,as expected from them by people, and this will bring down the price of bitcoin because we have start seeing some drop in the price. It was this approval of bitcoin ETF news that made bitcoin price to hit $45k for the first time in this circle and what will happen when SEC refuses to approve it. It means that we might see bitcoin price below $40k

527  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Focus on how much you may lose and not only the potential win. on: January 03, 2024, 02:28:03 PM
I agree with everything that you said OP, greed has made a lot of people to lose big in gambling because they feel that it is the amount of money that they use to gamble that will allow them to win big, and they fail to think that what if they lost the bet, which is more common than winning. Whatever amount that you use to win your bet, you should be contented with that win and don't become greedy that regretting that you didn't use a bigger amount to win big. If you are such person that regrets your action for using a smaller amount, you will see that the next day, you will want to stake a bigger amount because you feel that you might win the game forgetting that the game you won was based on luck. If all gamblers consider losing in their mind, I believe that they will be cautious of how much they will be using to gamble, especially when it is an amount that they cannot afford to lose. In gambling it is either you win or you lose and most gambler lose more than they win, but most gamblers put winning in mind instead of losing which is not fair.
528  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: January 02, 2024, 03:07:42 PM

It is true that if Mbappe leaves PSG on the days when PSG is pursuing every competition that is followed, it will be very difficult for PSG, because in my personal opinion PSG also does not have a replacement for Mbappe to perform well at this PSG club. But this is still just a rumor, we can't be sure what the future will be like after all these rumors happen, whether mbappe will continue to stay at PSG or indeed leave in the January transfer market later, and basically also that real Madrid does need mbappe to strengthen its squad if you think about it, but we are really confused by mbappe's behavior which always gives a controversial attitude.

Now Mbappe will definitely not be able to leave PSG because he has a contract until the end of the season, but he can already start negotiating with other clubs. I read the latest news today that Liverpool wants to get Mbappe, I don’t know if this is true (as the French publication Le Parisien claims), but it seems that Real is still the number one contender. I don't think PSG will try to stop him, they will get big money for Mbappe and it looks like they are already looking for his replacement.
maybe Mbappe stay at PSG can help his team win the UCL title (even though it's impossible) but the fact is that PSG will still have difficulty if they only rely on Mbappe because they are not strong enough if they only rely on one player without having a solid line up. meanwhile, to be able to win a title at UCL you have to have strong cooperation, whereas PSG doesn't have solid cooperation for me.

regarding Mbappe move in january, he won't be moving, but if PSG keeps him until June, it looks like he will leave as a free agent and PSG will suffer a loss if he leaves as a free agent.
It will be hard for Paris Saint-German to win the Uefa Champions League trophy. Paris Saint-German has built its team around Mbappe, and if Mbappe is not in form Paris Saint-German will not perform well.
After Messi and Neymar left PSG, Mbappe became their key player that the club rely on to win matches, this is why I do not think that PSG will let him leave without rounding up the season and allow his contract to be over. I also know that any club Mbappe will be moving to will be Real Madrid and not Liverpool because that is where a player with his potential fits in, Liverpool is good but it is not that consistent in winning trophies, this will discourage him, since has already made up his mind to move to Real Madrid but PSG deprived him.

OP, you should only invest with the amount of money that you wouldn't need for a long time, this is why you must consider investing in a long term so that you can be able to grow your bitcoin portfolio to a significant amount. As for the amount to invest with, you can use 10%from your weekly or monthly income to invest in bitcoin, so that you can buy bitcoin frequently with that amount, but it should be based on your monthly income. DCA is the best way to accumulate bitcoin because you are buying frequently irrespect of the price of bitcoin at that moment. It also make your bitcoin purchase at ease with you and you can have time to plan your income for other investments too. Make sure that you have an emergency funds available and reserve funds so that if any expenses arises you can solve it. Have a bitcoin target so that you will only concentrate on meeting up with your target by DCAing regularly and this will make you not have time to get carried away with the little fluctuations in bitcoin price. A long term investment will lower the risk in bitcoin and will make you to be able to control your emotions if you are using DCA.

Arsenal lost 2-1 away to Fulham after taking the lead in the 5th minute.Arsenal are in a poor run of form and if they don't bounce back quickly they will fall behind in the title race.Arsenal were not at their best in the second half, taking the lead through Saka's goal but ending the first half 1-1. In the 59th minute Cordova-Reid's goal was an important win for Fulham who managed to win the match, but Arsenal suffered their 4th defeat in the league with this defeat and probably dropped 5 points away from the leader.Today we will watch the Liverpool-Newcastle United match.I don't expect Newcastle, who have had bad results in recent weeks, to take points away from Liverpool.I will be expecting Liverpool to win this match and open the gap.
Liverpool will capitalize on the loss of Arsenal yesterday and trash Newcastle so that they can extend their lead at the top of the table. Liverpool will not like to miss this opportunity, this is a must win for them.
I agree with you that Liverpool will play their possible best to make sure that they win Newcastle in this match for them to be on top of the table. However, it wouldn't be an easy match because we should not underestimate Newcastle afyer they lost their last match Luton. Newcastle might decide not to accept defeat because it will affect their position on the table but I know that if worst cone to worst it might be a draw game. I don't think that Liverpool will love the game to end up in a draw because they will be out to win all three points to themselves to put them on a better side of other clubs competing for the trophy this season.
532  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season on: January 01, 2024, 03:11:07 PM
Among the various league tournaments, of course the English Premier League and Bundesliga are two very competitive leagues and most of the teams in these two leagues are very strong. Despite the strength of most of the teams in this league, Liverpool is currently number one in the English Premier League points table and Bayer Leverkusen is number one in the Bundesliga points table. These two teams are dominating in two different leagues and they are performing consistently in every match. Interestingly, these two teams are at the top of their respective leagues this season and both teams have qualified for the Europa League again. After Bayer Leverkusen's good early performance, I didn't expect this team to perform so consistently but they are performing much better than we expected and their performance is consistent. Due to their consistent performances, it seems that these two teams will do well in their respective leagues and the Europa League this season.
several teams in the playoffs will join in, we can't just talk about Liverpool and Leverkusen even though many fans are surprised by Leverkusen's dominating performance this season. not only in the Bundesliga but also in the European League. Xabi did everything well and measuredly. he has a strategy that works well with the Leverkusen players.
but we still have to be wary of the teams that will soon join in the next round. there is Roma and also Milan. if the two join forces it will make the European League even more interesting.

Roma and AC Milan teams are quite strong on the Europa League platform. And so the road to the Europa League title won't be easy for Leverkusen and Liverpool. Although personally I don't think Liverpool team is favorite for Europa League. Because this team aims to win the Premier League title. The Europa League is their second priority. So I think Leverkusen and Milan are the most qualified teams for the Europa League title. The performance of the Roma team is quite erratic. I doubt if they can survive in Europa League competition.

Immediately I saw Ac Milan qualifications, I knew they'd go far because they are also big European sides who you cannot write off completely. They had a poor Champions League but I don't think it'll be same with the Champions League Competition as they fumbled to get good number of points.

Liverpool can't win the Premier League Competition, not the season not at all. They're competing fine but they don't stand a chance in the long run, the Europa League Competition will make them fatigued and Injured if we're being without bias.
I do not see Liverpool as the favorite team to win Europa, neither EPL. We cannot use their present performance as a guarantee to win these two competitions. It is only if their players don't over stress themselves and mess things up as time goes on, that is when they might be able to win one of the competition. This is because we can't see what is ahead of us and if Liverpool key player get injured, it might affect their performance, also we have Bayern Leverkusen in Europa, and Manchester city and Arsenal in EPL as their rivals.

Your prediction is based on your own strategy and I don't think that anyone will be able to predict the price movement of bitcoin correctly. The halving is the event that brings hope to investors because some months after the halving cones the bull run and that is where every investor is looking up to. ETF bitcoin approval is still under probability because nobody knows if SEC will choose to still delay the approval. So I am not counting on that yet, but if it happens that SEC approves ETF Bitcoin, the price of bitcoin will skyrocket and we might see bitcoin price at $200k during the bull run.

I will only cut down my gambling expenses if I am to make a new year resolution on my gambling activities, but I don't think that is possible because I am a responsible gambler and I only gamble with the amount that I can afford to lose. What I will do this new year is to give a trial to other games that I don't gamble on to see if I will enjoy the fun in them, since I am not use to them.
536  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: December 31, 2023, 07:14:45 PM
Arsenal excited their fans for the championship this season as well, but now it seems that this will not be possible as they have only received one point in the last three matches. It was very bad to lose three points before the start of the new year.

Fulham is a very different team, they can somehow beat the teams trying for the championship. In the Arsenal-Fulham match, however, he made a very fast start with Saka's goal. But then Fulham made a comeback and gave Arsenal this gift before the new year.
A bad way to wrap up the year for Arsenal as they were unable to secure three points but instead they lost three points again after the last one that they lost against West Ham. I have begin to think that maybe what happened last season will still be the same fate for Arsenal, as they only know how to top the table for some time, but they cannot fight till the end. It is obvious that Liverpool and Manchester city will win their outstanding matches and Arsenal will go below them on the table.

If you are serious to learn and grow in this forum, I guess this is the best place that you can earn bitcoin from weekly. You need to learn and share your ideas and make contributions that forum members will learn from. If you reach Full member rank, you can apply for signature campaign and start earning. This is the easiest way so far that I know of. This is because if you want to start trading, it is difficult to learn and become an expert in trading, because trading is complex and no one can predict the price movement of bitcoin. You need capital to start and that is not a guarantee that you will make profit. Mining is also expensive.
538  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Am I Too Broke To Own Bitcoin? on: December 30, 2023, 04:52:11 PM
The problem that you are having is that you are using the funds for important things to invest in bitcoin and this is why you cannot hodli. Since you are earning up to $3k, you should make a proper calculation on your monthly expenses and how much it is, after that, you should also keep some funds in reserve for emergencies that can occur in future. If all these are done, you should look at the amount left and if it is still up to $500, you should keep $400 aside and use only $100 to buy bitcoin regular, either weekly or monthly based on when you do get paid. If it is weekly, you accumulate the amount for one month to make sure it is $100. Always buy bitcoin with this amount every monthly, and practice this for four years, it is called DCA method. Forget that you have an investment somewhere, but your concern should be your constant buying to keep on increasing your bitcoin portfolio. Then be patient with your investment for a very long time. Before you know it, you will have a significant amount of bitcoin in your portfolio after four years. However, if after doing all your calculations and you just have let me say $20 below, you should cut down your expenses and also look for a second means of income to enable buy bitcoin and hodli for a long time and also it will help you to be able to increase your bitcoin portfolio. Only use the money that will not be useful to you for a long time to invest in bitcoin so that you can hodli.
539  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: December 30, 2023, 02:28:57 PM
Chelsea is too early to get 1 goal in the 20th opening match against Luton which is taking place now.
Palmer was very difficult for Luton's defense to stop. Chelsea's 1 goal lead was purely a blunder by one of Luton's players who gave Palmer a pass. Kabore meant that the ball was given to his friend but because Palmer was too quick to cut the ball, he managed to shoot hard with his left foot which the Luton goalkeeper couldn't anticipate.

Chelsea temporarily doubled their lead again with 2 goals. With these two goals up to the 37th minute, I think Pochettino's team will lock in 3 points in this match.
I have no doubts that Chelsea will win because Chelsea's game is quite good.
Chelsea is stronger than Luton and I have hope that they will win the match today, which they have shown their superior over Luton by scoring two goals in the first half. From the look of the game, I don't think that Luton will be able to equalize these two goals in the second half because Chelsea is really dominating the match and they were in control of the first half. Luton is still finding it difficult to break the deadlock and I hope they will be able to do that in the second half. It is not yet over, until it is over and let's watch out what will be the outcome of this match by the end of the second half.

With normal time remaining, it is certain that Chelsea will win this match because the score is already 0-3.
Chelsea's attacks in this match were built through the wing sector and this strategy succeeded in making it difficult for Luton to decide on their attacks.
This strategy is worthy of being maintained by Pochettino in other matches.

To equalize, Luton managed to score 2 goals. 1 goal was disallowed because the Luton striker was caught offside first. The score has changed to 1-3, even though there are still around 15 minutes left in the match, I'm not sure the score will be a draw.
With the look of things, If Chelsea is not careful, this match might end in a draw because Luton is now over pressuring Chelsea and there in no way that Chelsea can withstand the pressure as Luton are desperate to equalize the match. In the last ten minutes to the extra time, Luton has been displaying a lot of seriousness to win the match and they have also lost some great chances to equalize the goal. The left wing is what Luton is using to penetrate Chelsea's defense. It is one minutes to end the match and I think Chelsea needs to be very careful with their defense if they want all three points.
540  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: December 30, 2023, 01:28:11 PM
Luton vs Chelsea is the headline of today's match and as everyone knows, Chelsea will likely have difficulty getting full points in this match. As a team in the relegation zone, Luton will definitely not make concessions to Chelsea, especially when they attack Luton with all their might to defend their goal from being conceded. The only strategy that Luton can use is to defend and therefore they will probably only try to take a draw.

Chelsea is too early to get 1 goal in the 20th opening match against Luton which is taking place now.
Palmer was very difficult for Luton's defense to stop. Chelsea's 1 goal lead was purely a blunder by one of Luton's players who gave Palmer a pass.
