The biggest match of the group stage in Qatar World Cup is going to happen today. Two former world champions Spain and Germany will enter the field. There is no lack of excitement among the audience about this match. However, Germany lost their first match in the current World Cup. And Spain beat Costa Rica 7-0 in their first match. Who is ahead of the World Cup statistics before the German-Spain match? Who is history speaking for? Spain-Germany is entering the field on Sunday night at Al Bayt Stadium in Doha, Qatar. Usually one such match everyone expects to see in semi-final or final. However, this time the two superpowers are in the same group, so the two teams have to face each other in their second match. The match turned into a 'do or die' match after Germany unexpectedly lost to Japan in their opening match at the World Cup in Qatar. Where the Germans have to beat Spain to survive in the World Cup. And Spain is flying at the moment after beating Costa Rica 7-0 in their first match. However, Spain is not taking Germany lightly. Statistics show that the Germans are still ahead of Spain in head-to-head matches. The two teams have played 25 matches against each other. Germany won 9 times, Spain won 8 matches. The remaining 8 matches have been drawn. Meanwhile, Spain is ahead again in the FIFA ranking. The Spanish are ranked 7th and Germany is at 11th position. Germany is ahead of the World Cup. Germany and Spain have met four times in the World Cup so far. Where the Germans won two matches, the Spanish won one.
Germany will take the field against Spain to sustain themselves.Spain beat Costa Rica by seven goals in the first match to hold the record for the highest goals scored in Qatar World Cup 2022 so far.Today Germany and Spain are facing each other. If Germany loses to Spain then Germany will have to leave here.And if Germany can win with Spain, then they will definitely have a chance to survive in the second round.Let's see how well Germany can perform against Spain today to keep them alive.
Talking about history is true, Germany has won more matches against Spain, but this time the performance of Spanish players is on the rise, and Germany will find it difficult to face Spain in this world cup.
Will Germany be as lucky as Argentina who can secure their position in this match? I think that if Hansi Flick's strategy was predictable by Luis Enrique, it would be a shame if Germany had to return to their homeland on the group stage.
It is a life and death-match for Germany to survive in the group stage of the Qatar 2022 World Cup.

The Polish match against Saudi Arabia, which collected possession from start to finish, was controlled by Saudi Arabia, many mistakes were made by the Saudi Arabian players, namely not being able to maximize the penalty box kick and what was more fatal was the mistakes made. . by Ali, he was unable to control the ball his friend gave him so Lewandowski took advantage of it and scored.
I think if Herve Renard returns to disciplining the back line and taking penalties with the right players, Saudi Arabia might win the game again.
Saudi Arabia must learn from this match if they want to win against Mexico in the next match.

Argentina's match against Mexico was very fierce, buying and selling attacks did not produce goals in the first half from both teams, after 72 minutes Messi was finally able to show his fangs which resulted in a goal.

But what is certain is that they (CEX) are trying to fix the public stigma circulating about crypto in droves by demonstrating Fof/PoR.


It's not working.   Cheesy

Imagine if Politicians started talking about 'Proof of Honesty'.  All that would do is draw attention to how much they lie.  And it's the same with this.  They wouldn't need to be making a big song and dance about this if they could be trusted to begin with.  All they're doing is shining a spotlight on how vulnerable they are.  Hopefully hastening their own demise.

Yes, they do that to show proof of reserves purpose is to ask users to be able to trust them again, maybe beginners in the crypto world will easily trust them because they have trillions of dollars worth of assets in them without knowing their liquidity, but not us.
CEX is very dangerous, the requirement to use the platform is to do KYC first and fulfill personal data such as using an ID card, passport, and other data.
Personal data will be very dangerous if leaked into the wrong hands, even the consequences can be worse than losing money on the platform, it is also possible that the CEX platform can sell user data for their benefit.

Looks like i will be losing all my money betting on this World Cup Xd, since Saudi Arabia won the match against Argentina i loved their defense and tactics but today they are really unlucky scoring the draw goal after missing a penalty and many dangerous chances, while Poland also missed two chances to kill the match with the second goal. The match is very exciting and close for both teams.

The Saudi Arabian players played very impressively, they controlled the ball very well on the pitch, Czesław Michniewicz is very good at coaching his children, but maybe he was too confident because he had beaten Argentina in the previous game so he was not so thorough. against Poland. Again, the domination of possession had no effect, 5 shots against Wojciech Szczęsny did not produce a goal, while Poland, which only had 3 shots on goal against Saudi Arabia, was able to produce 2 goals without reply.
If Mexico wins against Argentina, Mexico will immediately move up to second place in Group C with 4 points and drop Saudi Arabia to 3rd place.
565  Other / Off-topic / Re: Increase in cost of running the family on: November 26, 2022, 01:47:58 PM
This is also one of the impact of the inflation we are having and high level of poverty increasing daily, the family is in a big time finding it difficult especially in meeting up with the family needs, i also blame some family for relenting only on the husband fir sustainability, what if anything tragic happens, they family or both parents were expected to have something doing that could help the family rely in difficult situations whereby things were becoming unaffordable, the other partner will help in assisting to cover that up using out of their own income, it's because things were expensive that makes it difficult for the family to cope with the influence of inflation in running the family needs.
Yes, broadly speaking, talking about price increases is the impact of abnormal inflation so spending increases significantly even though they only make the same purchases as the days before inflation occurred.
The unpreparedness of every family, especially those at the middle to lower level, with the very high rising prices of various daily needs and stagnant income, so that they experience difficulties in meeting their needs.

I see that this is reality that the cost of running the family house hold daily, weekly, monthly and yearly has increased. From different people that have complained and including friends, it is getting so much of frustration to taking good care of the family to live fine because inflation and no job. To buy basic need in the house not easy. A friend that have add a new born to his home complaining of buying diaper, provisions for the new child as expensive in addition to the expenses to take care of the other children. The situation of bringing up the family is not easy and I think one way to helping ourselves not to add more financial burden is by reducing the number of children we give birth to. This can help.

This friend of mine now complain so much because of the new child adding to his family. If we reduce the child bearing to the amount we can take care , it will reduce the heat we are feeling from the bad economy experience.

There is such a thing as planning. It concerns both financial planning (income, expenses, loan repayment, etc.) and family planning. There is nothing inadequate here, but family planning is also an important point. If a friend decides to have a child / another child, he must understand that a child is both time consuming and possible difficulties (wife's pregnancy, childbirth, medicine, diapers, food, ....) as well as additional costs. No, you can, of course, lie down and not think about the fate of your children, and there are such people. But it doesn't make sense...

All of this is again correlated with the level of education or knowledge in every level of society, government policies in the economic field, and employment income, which are supporting factors in meeting family needs. We have to be farsighted if we want to live as a family as you say (any form of financing to take care of children & more) in the future.
A disaster family is very important for a family to run, but even a family that already has a financial plan will find it difficult to deal with high price increases like now.

Germany's defeat against Japan was really unexpected and a big surprise.
However, Germany was much better in that match and should have won easily.
They did not take advantage of their chances in attack and due to a weak and unfocused defense, they lost a game that should have been decided much earlier, already in the first half.
They have a very difficult match against Spain, but we should never underestimate Germany. Germany always plays best when the situation is most difficult and should never be written off.
A very uncertain and exciting match between Germany and Spain awaits us  Grin
The defeat suffered by Germany at the start of the match against Japan was a heavy blow for Hansi Flick. I don't think Hansi Flick will just sit idly by after being humiliated by the Sakura nation, maybe he has come up with a new strategy and rearranged his line-up against the Spanish players. Luis Enrique's belief in his victory against Costa Rica will be an opening for Germany to surprise Spain, it is also undeniable that Germany has fears because the performance of Spanish players is currently on the rise.
Indeed, anything can happen on the field, the match between the world's giants, Germany against Spain, will be a very interesting spectacle.

I also hate people who say that Bitcoin is the same as Altcoin, but people who don't know what Bitcoin is think they are the same, especially investors who are only looking for profits to fulfill their greed and don't care what Satoshi meant why Bitcoin was created.

Quote
Not really, one of the government's concerns about bitcoin is also for this reason, they fear bitcoin is used for corruption because it is quite difficult to track bitcoin than fiat money due to its decentralization.
Yes, you could say that user anonymity can be an opportunity for corruptors, but can't the state form a special body to oversee the wallets of every government apparatus and institution so that they can monitor the flow of funds in that country? such as the implementation of development programs, social assistance, or others, and the implementation of reporting so that it can be seen the synchronization of the use of the budget to avoid corruption.
I think the fear is also shared by bankers as financial authorities because they cannot go around monopolizing finance if Bitcoin is used as currency.

This is the group operating 1xBet and 1xBit websites.
When you have taken this screenshot? I can't see the 1X Corp N.V. company name on their Terms page. Moreover, their terms page has a different look now. Seems like they have updated their terms with more details and removed the 1X Corp N.V. license details from there.

The screenshot was taken right prior to publishing it here. Now the whole Terms and Conditions section is indeed replaced with new content.

Despite all your findings, since your reputation is quite good, it would be better if you try the Coinplay platform as a test casino. Based on your reliable enough history with real deposits and withdrawals to prove casino worthiness. So, will there be any other problems or problems experienced by users at 1xBit casino. If not, will it still be questioned?

Don't let it cause doubts/panic for those of us who have just joined this casino campaign, especially since we don't know anything about casino relations. So I'm just clarifying, for us as long as this casino doesn't have problems with withdrawals or lost user deposits and other issues, it can be said to be clean.

One of the biggest effects that is overlooked is going to be probably on Ukraine since their corrupt government has had investments in FTX and they were even laundering a large amount of donated money through this exchange turning a large part of it to bitcoin to store in their private offline wallets for the future.
This is very inhumane corruption, using donation funds to deal with the effects of war instead of being made into warm cakes for self-serving governments.

This is a big blow to crypto community with the countries on this list and how much loses made. I hope the government won't begin a difficult regime that will affect exchange operations in their jurisdiction to protect their citizens. I'm sure Nigerians deal more with binance which is why it is not on the top list.

Not just a big blow, it became the biggest fraud in cryptocurrency history. That's why Sam Bankman-Fried is using his connection to cover up all the scandals he did through well-known politicians besides his mother being a lawyer.

But you're right, they'll give priority to finance over that matter.

Honestly, when we are talking about just a few billion dollars, that's not going to impact the nation as a whole, it will just impact the investors, that's it. I know it's quite common that people end up with a lot of loss personally and that individual loss feeling makes you wonder how any more people are impacted, but it's not about the size, but more about the number of people. Nations such as South Korea deal in hundreds of billions of dollars every year even more if you calculate the size of both imports and export and also what's going on inside daily, so just a few billion dollars here wouldn't really change much for the country.

What the Founder of Ftx did was a very bad and cunning move by a man who is wild about money, because, in my opinion, he intended to declare bankruptcy and release it without funds, so that all the investors who put big money into his FTX Platform.
On November 11, SBF resigned from the position of CEO, then was replaced by a new CEO named John J Ray III. In all the time John J Ray has worked on bankrupt companies, he has never handled a bankruptcy as bad as FTX's, as he notes:
1. Employee requests replacement via chat approved by emoji
2. Almeda Research lends $1 billion and Nasdaq Singh $543 million
3. FTX employees use auto-delete messages
4. FtX has never held a board of directors meeting
5. FTX does not have a cash management system, and management does not know how much funds they have
6. Some FTX employees are suspected of being fake
7. Employees use company money to buy property on their behalf

This event is the darkest in crypto history, maybe the domino effect will be bigger and longer than Mt.Gox, even Solana and Genesis are reportedly threatened with bankruptcy due to their association with FTX.
570  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Africa Football Discussion Thread || Current discussion: African teams at Qatar. on: November 25, 2022, 09:23:17 AM
This world cup so far has been boring for the African continent. We don't have a goal or win yet to celebrate and it's frustrating watching all the lost and draws we're having. Hoping when our representing teams play the second leg of the group stages, we'll get some goals to celebrate.
Now you have two goals to celebrate it would gave been bad to finish the fiery round without a single goal from African team buy Ghana never disappoint.
This World Cup happened in a period that I am not much occupied such that I have to watch literally all the matches. I have watched almost all the matches of the African countries, despite that none won in this first stage of the group match, I can confirm that most of if not all of the African countries played good football and have a steady good team.
This means that they could get a better results in the second round of the group stage.
In the second match against the hosts of the world cup tonight I think Aliao Cisse's troops will get the victory we really hoped for today, Kalidou Koulibaly cs must get a landslide victory over Qatar because today's match is the match that determines Senegal qualify from Group A for following the next match at the 2022 Qatar World Cup.
Indeed, I consider the first match against the Netherlands as a defeat of class and I consider it natural for Senegal, but tonight against Qatar in my opinion, Aliao Cisse and his troops in terms of players and experience were able to destroy Félix Sánchez Bas's troops.

Man United failed to take last season's transfer window for Cody Gakpo but will it come true next season to bring this young player into the squad for the Red Devils?
In the next season's transfer market, Man United has the option of the Dutch player Cody Gakpo for the reason that it is cheaper. Instead of taking Memphis Depay back because his performance was not too surprising at Barcelona. However, Cody Gakpo interest still feels like he wants to stay at PSV longer because according to his contract until 2026.

572  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Can Solana rise again? on: November 25, 2022, 03:50:24 AM
Solana is one of the most innovative innovations, designed to facilitate decentralized applications (Dapps) that aim to facilitate the scalability of proof-of-stake combined with proof-of-history.
they provide it with Proof of History (PoH) to help know when a transaction was made, developed by Anatoly Yakovenko.
The hybrid protocol built into the Solana network provides significantly reduced validation times for lightning-fast smart contract transactions and execution.
 
The association with FTX makes investors both small and large fear that Solana will suffer the same fate as FTX. I think from a fundamental standpoint, Solana will improve even if it takes a while.

because it's basically Solana.
1. Its Ecosystem with one of the largest smart contract base applications in the market. There are many dapps and not all of them are connected to Ftx. even the Serum made by SBF can live without him because Solana's community and developers can handle it.
2. They no longer have a connection with SBF so it can no longer be called a BC chain. Then there is their Founder. But in the world of crypto, as long as the community and developers are there, Solana is still complete and they were only really affected by FTX because their name was attached to SBF.

We should also note that FTX is a centralized exchange. Solana is not, but a layer1 decentralized Ethereum blockchain. So, when it comes to this case they are very different. FTT tokens have no demand outside of the FTX platform. Solana is used in decentralized applications, NFT, and Defi.
573  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is Trust wallet and is it safe? on: November 24, 2022, 07:20:44 PM
Trust wallet has a 2FA feature that makes it more secure to use. I have been using trust wallet for a long time now and so far, I haven't encountered any problems. It's easy to use and their support is also responsive. It all depends on how we use it. As for me, as long as we keep our private keys safe, our wallets are safe and secured as well. We should only be handling our wallets safely and responsively

As far as I'm using it, it's really good, the 2FA security feature is very helpful and makes it difficult for hackers. That's right, the thing that needs to be paid attention to is maintaining/saving the phrase wallet (12/24 words), I once forgot my phrase wallet, and until now I can't log back in.

And what you have to pay attention to is avoiding dusting attacks that can take/hack your wallet through small transactions, I suggest you create the main wallet and a special wallet for participating in events if you are a bounty seeker in various network events or projects.

If you survey 100 people then you give a choice, who wants to be an entrepreneur or a worker? 99% of them will answer "want to be an entrepreneur" for almost the same reasons because there is a stigma in society that entrepreneurs are cool, live in luxury, have free time, and can do anything. even though behind it all, even an entrepreneur is 100 times more draining of energy, thought, time and assets compared to employees. Most entrepreneurs don't tell clearly how the process of becoming what it is now is that they have become successful people because there are indeed many things that must be kept secret and are unable to convey them.

Yes, it is true that a team with star players is not a guarantee to be able to easily beat a team that does not have star players, and in this world cup tournament it can be illustrated that football is almost evenly distributed in its game, both Asia and Africa are always considered class 2 in football. , I'm sure that in the next edition of the World Cup there will be a new champion from Asia or Africa who can win it
This is very likely to happen, looking at some of the matches that took place, the Asian representative at this year's Qatar World Cup, the Asian representative was able to keep up with the world cup giants as just witnessed between South Korea and Uruguay with a 0-0 result.
Giant squads such as Germany, Argentina, and Uruguay were overwhelmed by the opponents from this year's Asian representatives in the group stage.
I think this shows that the development of Asian football has improved from year to year

If the German team dont improve there playing for the next game against Spain i see black for them.
Did you see Spain yesterday? They seem playing good and it will be hard for German to beat them; in that case, German will be out of the tournament if they can't. Apart from that, Japan will look for a big margin win against Costa Rica; German will be out once again. I can't see Germany is qualifying. Nevertheless, anything can happen in football.

Indeed, Spain played very brilliantly in their first match, they scored 7 goals without reply, showing their ferocity. Luis Enrique was very brave to bring out his young players to destroy Costa Rica in the first game. Meanwhile, Hansi Flick only relies on players who can be said to be old. The Group E stage is likely to be dominated by Japan and Spain, while Germany and Costa Rica will be the spectators of the Qatar World Cup.
Hansi Flick must completely reconstruct his strategy against Luis Enrique in the next match to get rid of his embarrassment against Japan.

I just created an early account to find out more about this casino. It will be a pleasure that this casino is so brightly displayed and has so many options. Android and iOS support so the display will adjust to our cellphone. The minimum deposit is very low at $0.5, I only need 10 TRX. Likewise with an affordable minimum withdrawal of only $ 2.6. Of course, small gamblers like me don't feel burdened with all of that.

Based on recent trend in Bitcoin, this is the worst year in crypto history and the year is not over yet. I was talking to a friend this morning concerning the current crypto trend and guess what? This dude is loosing hope already.

And I don't even know how to encourage myself to invest more in Bitcoin, is it right for me to go ahead and buy the dip ?

Things like this that usually happen to a group of people, especially those who buy at a high enough price, will make someone mentally down. Also, some people are happy when the market is like this because they can buy Bitcoin at the lowest price.
Including me, who buys Bitcoin consistently at the end of the month, even though it's not much.
I think you have to convince your friend as long as your friend doesn't sell his Bitcoin, your friend can never lose.
I suggest moving on before institutional investors and other whales buy Bitcoin on a larger scale.
