I'm loving lukaku more and more,  what a sportsmanship he is for giving Esposito the penalty,   I'm glad he left Man Utd to revive his career,  I'm pretty sure if he was still in Man Utd he wouldn't have been doing so well as he is currently doing now,
He is so strong, I wouldn't want to be up against him anyday if I was a defender. Two brilliant goals from him yesterday as he extends his tally in the seria A top scorers list. A player needs to play in a team that values him and with a manger that sees good in him, inter and conte are doing both for Lukaku, but in United he had his confidence reduced to zero, I am also happy he left.

Inter are making juve sweat as they realize conte's men are surely in the title race till the end and aren't ready to stop pushing anytime soon, whichever team wins the title deserved to do so.

Manchester City vs. Leicester is definitely the match to watch...
It didn't actually turn out that way, at least for the neutrals and the Leicester City fans, the match was one sided all through out the 90 minutes, with Leicester only managing to score from a quick counter attack and that was that till the end of the game.

But on city's part it was an excellent performance against a team that have been exceptional this season. They completely controlled the game and made Leicester look like a team in the bottom half of the table. Kevin debruyne also once again showed he probably deserves more praise than he is getting, he was fantastic today, it may be a little too late to chase down Liverpool sadly though.

so even if we have 1000 shit projects coming up every week, if even 1% ends up being useful projects over time, that's still amazing to me, and a big win for our industry.
Our industry imo doesn't need this, the altcoin "industry" doesn't need to have to have a low success rate of new projects and still believe it's fine that at least one or two came out successful, with that mindset, in the long run the altcoin market may disappear. When investors have to struggle with over 2000 projects to get one good one, they may have to try for a very long time before they get lucky, that's if they don't run out of patience.

The big win for our industry will be if this money hungry project owners will stop creating shit projects, as they are making it very difficult for the would-be successful ones to breathe and also for investors to find them.

It is now official, Arteta has just return to Arsenal as their new manager. We all saw it coming with all the speculations in the past week now, i am happy that Arteta has taken another huge step in his coaching career, one that looks destined to be successfully crowned with trophies and great achievements.

City may feel bad that they lost Arteta to Arsenal, I'm sure they had plans for him, he probably would have been in line to replace Guardiola when he leaves, but who knows when that will be and there was no way Arteta was going to reject such delicious offer from his former club, his first game is the lunch time kick off tomorrow against Everton, I hope he gets off to a winning start.

Newbies have been told what to do so many times, and if there are some of them not still doing it, then they have no intention of ranking up. "what to do newbies" is somewhat the most popular thread in the B and H section, it's not bad though, but if they are really learning from those threads then newbies by now should be making HQ/good threads, but it's difficult to see any doing that.

Your thread is good but imo it will be better to start threads that they can read to build up their knowledge of bitcoin, cryptocurrency and whatnot.

I think City is the one who has to go to finals this time. Who meets them decides who wins.
City face Madrid in the next round, and that's a huge test for them if they are to make it to the final, to eliminate the team who have won the tournament the most is not easy to do, no matter what form they are in, when it gets to the knock out stages, the experience cones back, they have been there numerous times and conquered, but Manchester City have not.

If city are able to win though, then they can go all the way to win the title, the victory will give them the spirit to believe they can beat anybody, I think city's problem is that the UCL looks like unfamiliar territory to them, the moment they can get over that, then they should be ready to win the trophy.

But if investors or crypto addicts can engage more in altcoins this will boost altcoins and get more organisers active and spread cryptocurrency more
Why would investors want to engage in what could make them lose their funds, and it's not about getting more people to buy altcoins or to invest in altcoins, would you just invest in an altcoin because they claim it can be used to solve medical problems, problems in the law facilities(judiciary)etc, what you should understand is that is there actually anyone of them that is really solving those issues or are they just dummies claiming to solve problems?, but doing nothing in the end.

No matter how much is preached that people should pay more attention to altcoin, not only bitcoin, they would not until the altcoin market starts working, and for now it is not.

It is natural there is a doubt with the coach which we know he not yet has experience coaching
This is what everyone is talking about, has Arteta got enough experience to save Arsenal from total collapse, we all know he is still in his learning stages under pep Guardiola, and throwing him into a big job such as this can either have a good effect or it could backfire, for the sake of Arsenal fans I just wish the former is the case.

A more established manager could also come into the club and flop, that's why I do not totally criticize Arsenals intentions/decision. When pep came to Barcelona, he wasn't established, but he did excellently well and is now one of the greatest coaches in Barca's history, now Solskjaer and Lampard are also doing good jobs in both united and Chelsea, so why not Arteta if he eventually becomes Arsenal manager

Will people be interested in this?
Definitely people will be interested in it, people who wish to understand more about this promising feature(lightning network)like myself would love to read more articles like this about it, as long as its simple to understand, straight to the point and maybe not too long. It is a perfect idea, and also some users have started threads to explain what the lightning network is all about, and their efforts was appreciated, I don't see why yours wouldn't be.

Lots of yellow cards last night, I usually expect goals when these two titans play each other. Defences came out on top though which is very surprising.
And this is the first time the El classico is ending in a goaless draw in over seventeen years, since 2002. It wasn't the typical El classico match everyone was expecting, with all the hype this match gets, it surely deserves goals.

Both teams remain level on points, Barcelona leads with only goal difference. It will be a tight title race till the end, it may even be decided by the slightest of margins, goal difference maybe.

Edit:
the last a Liga El Classico between both teams ended scoreless was in in 2002 over 11 years ago.

Man City vs Leicester this weekend, I really don’t think Man City will slip up in this one. City are going to make Leicester look like the pretenders they are, the party is over for Leicester.
I don't think Leicester are pretenders this season, to be second on the table and four points above city(even if city wins they still stay second)is not so easy to accomplish when you look at how much they spend on players, and how much those beneath them spends on their own players.

City are slowing crawling back into form and if they win this game it'll give them more boost. Even if there are hopes of them(city)chasing Liverpool, they need to be the ones in second place and it's Leicester standing in their way.

Isn't the answer that it neither increases nor decreases. When a user merits another user, there is no change on the meriters merit count. It's Smerits that decreases and as well increases, as for merit count, it can only increase, but cannot decrease.

Huge match today!
Barcelona - Real Madrid the game we all expected for so much time. My pick would be that Barca is going to win this game. Real is a little bit out of form in their latest matches and I don't expect them to do something incredible in this derby.
This match is actually not a derby match, though it should be the biggest club match on the planet. Real may not be in terrific form and their starting eleven for tonight is not also looking encouraging to me, but it's the El classico, many a time players even out of form, perform in games like this, so let's just cut the coaches some slack for their team selection and see how the players selected will perform in this game.

Both teams are level on points which makes this game more interesting, the winner gets a three point advantage and the edge in the title race, I want Madrid to win, but I doubt if they will.

What if the fall continued and the direction the market took was a negative one for your investment, when stop loss does what it's meant to do, and probably the market corrects itself, I do not blame myself or the feature.

Just because it seems you missed some profits this time around, doesn't mean next time would end up that way, you can always put the funds left back into your investment, it's better than having to lose far more than that.

Ronaldo is an elite player, the kind you don’t see many times in a lifetime. He is past his peak now though & whilst he’s still putting up good stats the Italian league is much slower than Spain so it’s good for him he left. Juve signed him with the intention of winning the CL. Can he win it again with them in the Autumn of his career?
Ronaldo is unbelievable, he is a blessing to this modern football era, and I feel fortunate to have watched him play, win titles and multiple ballon d'or titles in such an illustrious career. Just like you said, he is no longer as excellent as he was in the past, but his desire to perform everyday for Juventus shows class, and the fact that he is hundred percent a complete sports man.

Juve need the UCL, and it was a nice move going for Ronaldo, but I think they went for him too late, if they probably had gotten him maybe three to four seasons back, when he was still up to speed, maybe he could have pushed them to the title.

#2: Does the website’s URL have any spelling mistake or any error?
This point is easy miss and also skip the eye, for websites that you haven't used before or maybe are not in your list of bookmarked sites, it's good to check for spelling or graphic design errors, if there is any, then it's a scam website.
#3: Does the website (or company) promise extraordinarily high profits?
Or do they give fake giveaways, asking users to send bitcoins to receive more in return, scammers for sometime now are concentrating on starting fake giveaways, though some of this is easy to spot.
5377  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: {Beware}: List of Fake Coinbase Giveaway on: December 18, 2019, 09:18:29 AM
For the scammers to continue with this bitcoin giveaway scam attempts, it means there are still some users who are getting scammed for their own greed, this list is good, at least for those who are not aware of scam attempts like this one.

@Boafeng you do a great job in steadily updating newbies on the latest scam attempts, for those who love to read on the forum, they may just be one step ahead due to your posts.
5378  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: handling bitcoin volatility on: December 17, 2019, 05:55:54 PM
The best way for me to handle bitcoins volatility is through the amount you invest in it, invest what you can afford to lose, if you invest in that way, you will be able to handle a sudden fall and the losses wouldn't be one that you cannot handle or that will leave you with no funds at all.

Another tip for me would be the stop loss feature, bitcoin will always be volatile, and there would always be crashes, so whenever that happens, you can try to take funds you have left, rather than leave the losses to pile up.

You’re supposed to look to the future, not the past. I don’t think Wenger returning to Arsenal would be a good thing unless it was on a short term basis until the summer.
It's even unbelievable for someone to suggest that Arsene Wenger return to Arsenal, that is impossible, it surely cannot happen, Wenger did not have it easy with the Arsenal fans in the few years leading to his departure, and I do not think any of them will want him back.

Arsenal should not have sacked Emery imo, he should have been giving at least to the end of the season, just as united are doing with Solskjaer. Arsenal were in a transition, sacking Emery just broke that transition, and any coach they would sign now would just start from the beginning again. Arsenal must understand that it'll take time before they can return to their past glory.
5380  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 100 Most Influential People In Crypto on: December 17, 2019, 02:15:18 PM
It just a list, their web their opinion and their rules, just accept it.
And it's not as if it's anything official, I wonder why I'm seeing users requesting a change and asking why some names they feel should be on the list was obviously omitted. Any other website or even an individual can also come up with their own list of crypto influential individuals, AFAIK there is no official list of the most influential cryptocurrency individuals.

There may be so many individuals that are influencing the market, but are not known, maybe they chose to be anonymous, this is one of the reasons why this kind of list can be incorrect and maybe unacceptable to everyone.
