As for POS nothing more to say infact the recent saga around Centralized exchanges as proven that POS doesn't have a future due to its centralization, I just hope investors do not realise it late.

If comparing POW with POS then of course POW will be the better choice because it brings decentralization but the collapse of exchanges, specifically FTX in recent days, I think has nothing to do with POS. All the people who lost money in the FTX crash are aware of the risks of putting their money in FTX but they chose the risk to seek profit and they were too subjective to trust FTX completely.
Proof of work is far more secured than proof of stake algorithm since pow give us decentralization and prove of stake open us up to centralization of the network, since with proof of stake, the wallet with the highest stake volume control the network confirmation and this give power to few whales that can tempered with the transaction process since their have the higher stake volume.

But then pow also have its own shortcomings and one of them is the energy consumption by miners, but even that is taken care of by the use of another source of energy supply.
POW's energy consumption as well as bitcoin's would be justifiable because it creates value for everyone, I hardly care about the government's bullshit accusations about POW's energy problem. Just like industry or technology today, everything consumes electricity and generates waste.  But as long as it creates real value it's not wasteful and normal.

So we not surprise when elon reach into his deep pocket to buy twitter in billion dollar. Because he have unlimited money.

I was imagine when he find this forum that look unique because Satoshi was create this forum like he create bitcoin, 
and after he look unique and look philanthropy then he want to buy this forum,

are you guy agree if Elon buy bitcointalk forum?,
that look superior if bitcointalk owned by a richest person like elon.

If he buys, he will buy more bitcoins instead of buying this forum, Elon doesn't care about beauty or uniqueness, the only thing he wants is profit. Buying the forum will certainly not bring any big profit enough for him to be satisfied. He bought twitter for his many purposes and not for dogecoin, see how he is changing twitter, if it works it will really bring a lot of profit to him, that is his goal.

It’s the same every bear market when max fear is spreading. I guess it’s human psychology, fight or flight response. Many choose to fly away & dump their coins.

You can’t do anything about these kind of weak people. In bearish times coins transfer from weak to strong hands.

That's exactly what financial markets are doing, not only with cryptocurrencies but also with forex or stocks. Money will go from the weak to the strong, from the inexperienced to the experienced. We can't expect everyone to win, money can't be generated by itself, it can only be transferred from person to person.

The level of the Europa League has increased a lot after the teams from the Champions League have come here. It has got close to the Champions League I mean. There are really powerful teams in this round already. The number of favourites for the Europa League title has also increased quite much.
For now just as they are my favourite, Arsenal are the biggest title contender according to bookmakers. Barcelona and Manchester United follow respectively. I'd like to see Barcelona eliminating the Red Devils. And a finale like Arsenal - Barcelona would be amazing.
The problem of the level of the Europa League is not in the teams that participate there (the composition is always quite decent), but in their motivation and the attitude of fans to this tournament. Even if Barcelona, United or Arsenal win the Europa League, the fans of the opposing clubs will be trolling for the "consolation prize" and the "Thursday games". When there is the main tournament - the Champions League, then all the rest do not matter much (for the top clubs).

The Champions League title is definitely more important for the top clubs. And when a renowned club like Barcelona is knocked out in the first round of the Champions League, it's only natural that opposition fans troll Barcelona. And even if Barcelona win the Europa League title, they will probably be trolled. But Xavi must continue his quest for his first title as a coach. If Barcelona manages to win the Europa League title, it will surely be a big achievement for him.

It was a usual game for PSG in the league. They got a too comfortable win despite Messi and Neymar's poor performances. Against teams like Auxerre, one of the trio is enough for PSG to get a decent win.

PSG have already started to relieve very much in the standings as well. I see that Lens are not far away from them but it would also happen in time. I don't think that they can do the same as Lille and make it to the title this season. There aren't the same mistakes made by PSG anymore. They are just focused on having as big gap as possible before their Bayern Munich games in the Champions League. They shouldn't have any problem about this as well.
there are no problems for PSG this season. they continue to win big and keep on top of the standings. PSG's focus I think is no longer on Ligue 1. they always dream of the Champions League trophy. and they will not let go of the opportunity.
Lens is not a threat to PSG. they have good points, but if PSG always wins consistently. Lens will not stand a chance.

I agree with you. PSG's focus is not Ligue 1 right now. They are now fully focused on the Champions League. However, there is no reason to think that they will perform poorly in Ligue 1 matches. Ligue 1 teams are weaker than PSG. So even if PSG put in a bit of a poor performance, they won't lose the top spot in the points table. It wouldn't be surprising if PSG won both the Champions League and Ligue 1 titles.

Borussia Dortmund will face Chelsea in this round of 16, a match that will pit two clubs who are in a bad state right now. Borussia Dortmud are not as smooth as Chelsea to qualify from the group stage, they only recorded 2 wins, 3 draws and 1 defeat. While Chelsea could be better with 4 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat. In the domestic league, they are also not in good shape, especially Chelsea, who must be willing to be in 8th place after failing to get full points in a row. Borussia Dortmund also did the same as they failed to perform well thus throwing them to 6th position in the table in their last 2 matches.
Honestly it's very difficult to predict who will win in their 2 matches, but I want to see first the changes they make in this holiday.
One of the most random couples. On paper, Chelsea should win despite their problems, but Borussia Dortmund is so random that they can win against anyone, but they can also lose to anyone. I hope Chelsea will get Ronaldo in the winter transfer window and Chelsea will strengthen their position. Don't expect big purchases from Borussia Dortmund.

Personally I don't think the Dortmund team is strong. But their performance is completely erratic. They have several talented players in their squad. And Dortmund can beat any team if they perform well. On the other hand, the performance of their opponent Chelsea is not regular. If they can't bring in an experienced striker in the winter transfer window, their performance will not improve. The performance of their forward players is poor.

A very surprising result where lazio had to lose to the host Juventus with a score of 3-0. 2 goals were scored by Moise Kean and 1 goal was scored by Arkadiucz Milk. With this result, Juventus managed to shift Lazio's position in 2nd place in the Standings and Lazio had to drop to 4th in the standings, after AC Milan managed to secure its victory against Fiorentina with a score of 2-1 at the San Siro.
This defeat of Lazio shows that Serie A in this season will be so exciting. Many clubs are unstable and they have very closely differences that result in big changes on a ranking table after one or two match days.

Juventus after all the crisis they had in early of season, now stand at the third position and they even can claim the second position of AC Milan in next one or two matches.
Lazio with this defeat will have to struggle to stay in top four.

AC Milan did make a good job by beating Fiorentina with only one goal difference. It is not a big win for them but three points are important for them to not falling behind Napoli too much.

After yesterday's matches, we already know the final arrangement of the Serie A table in this year. In first place, in great form, Napoli, who have not lost a game and currently have a comfortable eight-point lead over second-placed AC Milan.
Serie A would be more interesting if Napoli lose their win streak. One or two defeats from Napoli will bring a lot of hope for other clubs to catch Napoli. I wish Napoli to become a champions in this season but in a more sensational race.
Napoli are doing great at the moment. Their team is very strong, they are achieving victory by applying different strategies during the game. They actually deserve to be champions this week. I think if Napoli perform like this they will become a great club day by day.

It is not that Napoli has too many star players in their squad, it is because of the excellent understanding between the players that Napoli has been able to continue to perform consistently well. And I think Napoli will be able to continue their streak if no key players in the squad suffer injuries. But we don't know how the teams will perform after the World Cup. Napoli's performance is also likely to deteriorate after the World Cup break.

only two points separate Real Madrid from Barcelona, the latter certainly cannot be sure.
I notice that they have the same goals scored but a big difference in the goals conceded. Maybe Carlo Ancellotti should work on that, yesterday he was a guest in an Italian program "Che tempo che fa" I hadn't seen him for a long time.
Most of the games they conceded, that's a problem they have to reduce. I don't mind when they can't score a lot of goals, but they have to guard their goal more so they don't concede. I see them too relaxed on the pitch, which is a good thing, but when they overdo it it affects the game because it allows the opponent to develop his game.

Real Madrid's defense may be a bit weak, but their midfield and attack are strong and they have been able to perform consistently well. I don't think Ancelotti needs to strengthen its defense too much. He can achieve the expected results only if he can strengthen the attack. Now Ancelotti must find a suitable replacement for Benzema. Without finding a replacement for Benzema, Madrid's performance will be even weaker.
590  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How important are exchanges? on: November 14, 2022, 05:31:14 AM
Most of my transactions are on exchanges. I feel that without an exchange, my transactions will become very troublesome. For our crypto users, the experience of the exchange is very good and convenient to trade.

Despite the collapse of exchanges and the damage done to the market and investors, we will always need exchanges. Once we invest, we should accept all risks, if we can't accept the risk, stay away from it, don't complain or blame anyone. Cryptocurrency is a market full of scams and if we are not greedy no one can fool us. I mean take responsibility for your decisions, life is inherently fake. When I invest in cryptocurrencies, I prepare myself for any trouble.

I will got 3 house when I sold my house then buy bitcoin with that money
In short you should know that this won't happen overnight because bitcoin is not a "get rich quick" scheme!

That's right, bitcoin is a "get poor slow" scheme!  Wink


Your houses, your choice,
but you could also just rent out the houses, and use the profit to speculate, ie: bitcoin and lottery tickets
that way if btc drops to $100 , you did not lose your entire investment, just a year or so of rental income.

Good Luck , no matter what you choose.  Smiley

FYI:
Things to Consider, BTC price is still dropping,
US/Europe/Canada are all still talking about banning Proof of Waste coins.
PoW miners are going bankrupt like crazy right now.
There are no guarantees BTC increases verses fiat or is not outlawed in your country.

Great advice, let someone else rent that house and take the profit to invest bitcoin. I am trying to accumulate bitcoin and when bitcoin hits my goal I will sell it and buy a house, I think even if bitcoin has more potential, I won't do the opposite. Sell my house for bitcoin, i swear I never thought about it

Seems like nobody loves Len's performance of late they got to win today against Clermont who haven't won them last five game's in League 1. Shout out to Len's for impressive performance in the first half impressing the fans by having full dominance of the match but all of that came to short when they conceded first by allowing score from a long range. Which saw them conceding for a Very long time at home.

Powerful second half as they hustled to get those three points back for the supportive home fans who did from start to end. They stills sit second place to Paris Saint Germans who are above them with two points although with a game to play from League 1 giants. They should be very happy for themselves this season, the hardwork will pay off not so early but soon, they still need to be consistent.

Clermont is not doing well currently. They do not have even one win in the last five matches. So, they will have to improve very quickly. The next match is against LOSC. So, it is not going to be easy at all for them.

If you are Clermont right now and you want to start winning and end your losing streak, you would not want to face LOSC in your next match.

I honestly do not think that they will be able to win their next match. The opponent that they are facing, LOSC is in better form right now, compared to Claremont. And that is going to be a big factor.

Is Moonbearn a project built on the Cosmos ecosystem? In my opinion, now is the time to limit investing in altcoins, we are going through bear season and anything bad could happen again. jJust focus on bitcoin and stay away from low cap altcoins, they are really too risky. The lesson of luna is still there and most recently FTT. Be careful with altcoins.

I wish I had started with cryptocurrency with someone coaching me. I had to learn about cryptocurrency on my own and read a lot of articles and finally ended up in this forum which really helped my knowledge grow regarding cryptocurrency. There's a lot to learn about cryptocurrency since it's a broad topic. I myself get hyped when someone is really enthusiastic to learn about cryptocurrency since not everyone is open about something new or adapts to changes, especially technology. Why not invite your friend to create an account here in this forum, since there's a lot of topic that is worth to read.

Today with the support of technology and the internet, finding and self-study is no longer too difficult. I am also self-taught without any guidance and I find it better not to rely on anyone. Also, if we need help, we can easily find help, such as right here on this forum. You can ask any question that you can't find the answer to, or questions that no one has yet answered for you, the seasoned investors on the forum can help you. Here we support to grow together.

Not only with FTX.us but also with FTX, but how to access and unlink when yesterday I saw many recommendations to delete the application and stop accessing FTX otherwise very vulnerable to other personal data attacks.

Drama won't end anytime soon, it's a disaster to use a centralized exchange, I also lost money with FTX and now I am fearing for my other personal documents, here is a lesson for me and the centralized exchange users.
596  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Not your key not your coins is real, not just quoted. (FTX Issue) on: November 13, 2022, 06:25:21 AM
Based on what I understand on FTX current situation. User can still get there funds once the FTX manage to file for bankruptcy to liquidate there assets for paying back customer money. Even Mt Gox is now paying back there customers after a long year while FTX is a regulated exchange on US which means users is protected by the law and has a chance to claim back there funds.

But the inconvenience of can’t use your money out of exchange is frustrating and the chance to wait for a long time just to claim it like Mt Gox all over again.

What you say is true, but unfortunately FTX is only registered for business in the US so US users will definitely be protected by law, so they will get their assets back. But in other countries the chance of getting it back will be very low, they will be compensated if FTX can afford it and FTX really wants to return the assets to them, otherwise users cannot sue or be protected by law.
597  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: November 12, 2022, 08:11:04 PM
England is definitely a big opponent for Pakistan in the World Cup. England's performance in recent times has been very satisfactory. They are even capable of beating Pakistan like India. However, Pakistan's bowling action is quite strong. I will personally support Pakistan because their country is facing various problems in cricket. If Pakistan can win the World Cup, the eyes of the cricketing world will once again be on Pakistan. After all Pakistan cricket will be able to improve immensely.
England will surely play good cricket. They have enough skill to beat Pakistan. Their 10-wicket victory in the semi-final will certainly impress them in the final. Meanwhile, there is no way to underestimate Pakistan, they play incredibly good cricket and have a team of worthy players.
For England, I have some confidence that they can beat Pakistan in tomorrow's final.  I though wanted to place a bet on England when they played live but I was so impressed with England that I just bet a few dollars in advance on England. Hopefully England will not disappoint us tomorrow. I am really looking forward to tomorrow's match.

England's batting line-up is very strong. They don't depend on the performance of certain batsmen like Pakistan. Every player in the team is batting very well. On the other hand, Pakistan's bowlers are in good form in this World Cup. So now it becomes very difficult to predict which team will win the title in this match. But in Pakistan, if the bowlers do not perform well in the final, then their chances of winning are very low. I would say the outcome of this match will depend on the performance of Pakistani bowlers.

Atalanta vs Inter Milan will be an interesting match this week because the two teams have the same number of points, it's just that Inter Milan has better productivity than Atalanta. Inter Milan slowly began to rise and continue to improve their ranking in the standings, while Atalanta the opposite of Inter Milan is that they often can't win lately and make their position in the standings continue to decline. It is difficult to predict the outcome of this match, I personally see that a draw may be obtained by the two teams in the match.
Though it is home match for Atalanta but I think Inter is favorite if we compare between Atalanta and Inter. At this stage, Inter is doing really great and they are serious about winning matches. But it will not be an easy match for Inter because they have to handle Atalanta carefully.

Both Atalanta and Inter Milan's performances have been erratic this season. So it is very difficult to pick a favorite team in this match. But even though it is Atalanta's home match, I don't think they will be able to take much home advantage. Because Atalanta's record in home matches this season is not good. They have only managed 11 points in 7 home matches. So Inter Milan can be kept ahead in today's match. But I guess the match is going to be a 1-1 draw.

What a game! Galatasaray won very easily. The bomb finally exploded. Galatasaray scored exactly 7 goals. Kerem and Icardi had an excellent performance. Kerem and Icardi had an excellent performance. Also, Icardi made an extra-ordinary assist. Icardi has proven once again that he is a world-class star.

Galatasaray's players played well today. Basaksehir was not a weak opponent. Basaksehir has one of the strongest defenses in the Super Lig. Even against such a defense today, Galatasaray won 7-0. It was an incredible result. Fenerbahçe on the other hand was defeated today. A long time later we saw its defeat at Fenerbahçe. And so now Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray are only 2 points apart. Super League is getting competitive.

Ajax will face Emmen who is currently a weak team at the bottom of the table. As for PSV, they have quite a strong opponent and are currently ranked 5th in the Eredivisie standings. How do you think these 2 matches will go? Are we going to see Ajax will get bad results?

I thought I would see only Ajax's dominance today against Emmen. But Emmen's players scored 2 goals. And their performance is better than Ajax. Although Ajax is still leading 3-2. But I think the match is more likely to be a draw. Due to this, Emmen's players continued to attack. Also, Ajax's players seem a little confused today. If they lose points in today's match too, they will go further back in the road to win the title.
