Considering their gameplay, I think France is showing a much better game than Belgium. They might have a better chance to win this as they have a more balanced team. Belgium has some good players but the team members don't support them enough to create a team game.

So far France still looks more dominant than Belgium with 3 shot attempts and 1 shot on goal, bookies also favor France to win. There are still 25 minutes left until the first half ends, I think maybe we will see a goal in this first half, it could be from France or from Belgium. BTW, I'm going to place a bet on the second half, want to see first how the first half will end.

I think that Belgium is always threatening France with their counterattack, and some golden chances are also happening from Belgium's side. The game is just getting even more interesting, and I rarely see an attack from France. Belgium is able to build its attack better than France. 
France may be losing if they keep playing without intensively pressuring Belgium. A small mistake can cost France a spot in the next round. Belgium's defensive line looks even stronger than last game. 

Rabiot gets a yellow card for his serious foul, and he must be playing carefully to avoid the red card.

One thing is for sure. If they actually make a very good offer, Barcelona is going to accept.
I know that the player is very good and Barcelona definitely needs him for the future.

But if PSG actually makes a “record-breaking” offer, Barcelona is definitely going to accept that. Because Barcelona needs a lot of money right now. But I wonder what the approach is going to be from the player. Even though the financial situation of PSG is very good, I still don’t think it is going to be an upgrade compared to Barcelona. Going to PSG is also probably going to be a mistake for the player as well. The league is not competitive at all.

Absolute nonsense. 268 million for a teenager who hasn’t proven anything yet? In yesterday's game, in my opinion, he was the worst, and this was in the game against Georgia.
When I hear such news, I am 100% sure that this is money laundering and payment for some kind of corruption schemes. The participation of PSG in this scheme is an additional indicator.
I'd rather use a half of 268 million to get Nico Williams from Bilbao than Lamine Yamal. It was totally ridiculous to get yamal from Barcelona. But that can be fake news as well. I recall hearing the same news that said PSG was preparing 180 millions for Yamal, but there's been no concrete update regarding it. 
That's why I'm sure that's probably another fake news story, and as Laporta said, he's most unlikely to cash in on Yamal. I'd rather not trust what Laporta said. These PSG and Yamal transfer rumors are getting even more ridiculous.

We think €100 million for Osimen is too much considering how his current club is demanding €130 million plus for his transfer. He is a good player and he can play a good role for the team to win that's why his price is ok at 100 million or below but 130 million money, if you look at the money, the amount of money is almost like a mountain. PSG are rich financially but they will never sign this player for 100 million plus euros. If Napoli really want to sell him, they will have to bring his price down so much that Europe's biggest clubs are interested in signing him.

In recent years, the amount of transfer fees has increased a lot. 100 million euros is almost the asking price for ordinary footballers. Osimhen is a player on the level of Mbappe and Haaland. I think 130 million euros is ideal for a player of this level. Paris Saint Germain will have to sign a star player after Mbappe's departure. Osimhen is a talent that can fill Mbappe's void. 130 million euros is not a high price for Paris Saint Germain. I think it is a reasonable transfer for all parties. I think everyone wins if this transfer happens.
In terms of player transfer fees, this is entirely up to the club. Sometimes you see an ordinary being priced with no sense of value, such as Mudryk or even Enzo Fernandes, but I must emphasize that you can still get an A+ or S-tier player for 100 million euros. 
It can be different if this is related to a player on Tier SS. 

Again, Osimhen's price was set by Napoli, and I'm not sure how Napoli valued their players, but 130 millions for Osimhen is ridiculous. 
It makes sense if his price is around 80 millions. 

Osimhen is significantly worse than Mbappe and Haaland; However, anything over a hundred million euros is prohibitively expensive. Finally, PSG has dropped their interest in Osimhen. 
64  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will another meme narrative do well besides cats and dogs? on: July 01, 2024, 08:25:42 AM
The narrative is very random these days, solana meme ecosystem has turned from being a land for meme coin to hyper paced meme coin pump and dump scheme from my opinion.

the fact that there's such platform like pumpfun and dexscreener moonshot like below

where pump is artificially created and it feels as if so many meme coins are AI generated kinda become the reason why eventually the meme coin market gonna rekt the newcomers.
not to mention so many the so called celebs are shilling their own bag for the sake of exit liquidity, therefore i consider the narrative of dog and cats and meme which already popular such as PEPE and so on to be the only legitimate narrative.

the other obscure meme coin narrative are at best just distractions. remember when you see someone turning $100 to $100k from meme coin, at best its just an insider trading, nothing more.

The ideal world should be the employee is being given a chance to increase productivity through the use of AI in their working environment, but we sure aren't living in an ideal world where such thing could really happen.
with the emergence of so many companies trying to leverage AI into using it for replacing human workforce, kinda self explanatory what direction our future gonna be taking, eventually it's gonna be the same as mailman being replaced by email all over again.

what can we do just follow where the river flow and try to learn new skill which is AI related from scratch. but, at this point i'm really hoping that there will be higher taxes for the use of AI that could give government more money to provide welfare to the people that probably gonna get affected heavily by the use of robotic work force.
because I can see that there gonna be so many unemployment.

Last season,I made a prediction that Dortmund will teach the UEFA champions league final,and even if they weren't able to win it from Madrid,to me,they really tried their best.
And if not for the chances they missed,they were going to win that cup.They played Madrid to the extent I was really surprised,I never expected such from them,but the chances they missed made them lose the chance of lifting the Champions league trophy.
Next season,I am going for Arsenal to reach that level,with the way they are growing and being consistent,I am confident they can reach the finals of the competition.

now it's the rest of the world against real.madrid I'm really happy that teams like Borussia or let's say smaller teams reach the Champions League final also because wisdom always becomes the same and the gap gets bigger and bigger, I also supported Dortmund but it wasn't enough
The last time Dortmund reached the final of the UCL was more than ten years ago. Dortmund was returning but failed to acquire the trophy because Real Madrid had stopped them from doing it last season. Dortmund was not fortunate to have Madrid as their opponent. 
We know how big the gap is between Madrid and Dortmund. I was rooting for Madrid, and they have won the UCL 15 times. The quality of the players says it all. 

But again, I wouldn't describe Dortmund as a small team. Though not as popular as Madrid, Dortmund's name was quite well known.

The England vs Slovakia Round of 16 singles match is going to be a very exciting match even though the half time play is already over. And in today's match, the England team could not be successful despite attacking sufficiently, but the Slovakia team is still ahead in the result by giving England a goal. If England team can't equalize and win against the opposition in today's match then they must be eliminated from the Euro Cup. England are relatively ahead in terms of attack and everything but still haven't been able to keep the ball in the opposition goal net. But I think after half-time maybe England will be more excited and a strong attack is definitely possible to come back. And if England can win the match with their strong attack then they will go to the quarter finals, and if they are not successful then the Slovakian team will confirm the quarter finals.

It's so damn hard to make a comeback if South Gate doesn't change the players that perform so poorly in this game. Saka clearly underperforms in this game; it takes too long for South Gate to decide, and he forgets he is in the race with the time. Southgate is the fundamental issue here, and he should be held accountable if England fails to qualify for the Euro 2024 tournament. Southgate is the very worst coach, and he is crap.

Saka performed poorly in this game, but SG continues to gamble on him. It makes the situation worse for the three lions. Bellingham and Kane do not make an impression until this point, and English is extremely underperforming. Southgate must take a risk by replacing players who have performed poorly. Southgate's slow decision-making is the problem here.

Anyone that is going for airdrops should be expecting phishing attacks. Several of them. It is worth knowing that an airdrop can be fake. Sometimes nothing good will come out of it. It can even be a scam like paying money before you will receive the airdrop.
getting a phishing attack is like monday stroll for airdrop hunter, the fact that we're always constantly connecting to the new dapps is like exposing ourselves to the malicious code that these new dapps probably having, but we can easily contain such risk by using new address where we don't really spend money.
I remember people were getting rugged by some dapps in zksync when there was no TGE yet and people are still trying to increase their chance of being eligible for the airdrop by supplying liquidity in many dapps.

key takeaway, always see whether the dapps that we gonna interact with have audited contract codes, never blindly approving token spending to the contract address, and always do airdrop that's coming from reliable team with extensive reputation.

Pre market literally you're just betting on the future outcome of project listing with minimal information, i still remembered when blast is having pre market and the total supply wasn't disclosed, it was floating around $5-$3 and suddenly it went to $0.035 once the total supply was disclosed and it was about 100 billion blast.
there are so many people complaining feeling like they've been cheated since they instantly lost all the money at the time of TGE. though i don't know whether the pre market trading in many exchange was cancelled eventually.

IMO it was good when pre market was still new thing in the market, right now, most of the project that have pre market ironically have lower price than the pre market ones. ZK tanks below pre market, blast, and other coins, enough reason for me to avoid this thing.
70  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What positive things you are seeing on Matic? on: June 30, 2024, 01:18:45 AM
never really have the highest hope for this coin to score its ATH again not to mention the L2 narrative is a massive lackluster right now mostly just empty shell of a blockchain created for VC to dump their bags, one thing that's good with matic is probably the fact that its market cap still quite high despite other L2 just gaining mid market cap at best, like the recent appearance of Blast L2 and Zksync which I was thinking they supposedly could overshadow polygon as ethereum L2 turns out I was wrong.

Polygon got the advantage of being among the first L2 but the price will probably stagnate around current price which is just $0.5, maybe some occasional pump but never expect this thing to hit ATH again at least thats my opinion.

By the way, Manchester United has really talented players like Garnacho, Mainoo, Amad Diallo and more. One of their focuses should be the development of these players.

All of these players have a big potential to tell the truth. They shouldn't be wasted. They will be the future of this team. I like this side of this team as well. I always see really skilled young lads waiting for their turn to show their skills. They never fail too. Especially Garnacho - Mainoo are doing great recently.  Smiley  Big teams would be after them shortly.

Would you ever want these players to be sold at this young age?  Huh  My answer will be, never!

Those talents will not be wasted by United, which is why they have been added to the list of players who will not be sold during the upcoming summer transfer. We are getting close to the summer transfer season. Garnacho and Maino have the potential to develop even further. 
Ten Hag simply needs to give him more time to play in the starting lineup, but the bad news is that Ten Hag is interested in cashing in some iconic Manchester United players such as Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford. 

That idea is terrible, and I'm still hoping Ten Hag will change his mind about some iconic United players like Bruno and Rashford.

I can't believe that the Italians are the reigning Champions but doesn't look like one with how they have been managing is not like the guys we saw last time back in 2020 and they haven't been seen a the favorite since the beginning of this tournament, although some players have left the national team but no better replacement and I must say that I love the way the Switzerland are playing today, it is impressive.
They are really good with and without the ball, all the players knows what to do and where to be when they are trying to get the ball, talking about Switzerland. If they continue like this I believe their opponent will be very aware of the danger they can cause, that's if Switzerland manage to qualify but to me is already done, Italy can't come back from this 2nil at the moment because they're just unlucky and they don't seem to be sharp with the ball.

Italy was deserved. Italy showed a poor performance, but Spalletti is the main problem here. For what use do spalletti serve fagioli as a starting line-up? Fagioli just returned from his ban; thus, I'm not sure why Spalletti used him.
In this game, Pellegrini, Cristante, and Scamacca are absolutely clueless. Clearly, Switzerland dominated the game against Italy, which concerned me at the group level, and they demonstrated their true quality.

Italy's lack of strong attackers makes scoring increasingly challenging for the team, as they struggle to generate opportunities. Italy hardly puts pressure on Switzerland's players and generates too many backpasses. Italy is losing her winning mindset at last.

73  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Why coins like Litecoin failed to make it big ? on: June 29, 2024, 06:15:31 AM
Litecoin hype was died when their own Founder decided to sold his holdings long time ago when the price is on ATH. There’s no big development happening on this project already since it just follow Bitcoin footsteps unlike other blockchain that innovate with the current trend in the world of DeFi that boost the valuation of the project.

It’s simple, if the founder itself decided to take profit on his holdings then why will you invest heavily on a project that a developer not holding his majority of shares. This show weakness to the project.

https://www.reddit.com/r/litecoin/comments/7kzw6q/litecoin_price_tweets_and_conflict_of_interest/?st=jbf703n1&sh=70857870
Also right now the trend is smart contract based blockchain, even bitcoin has many L2 that enables people with bitcoin to utilize it and interact with smart contract meanwhile Litecoin is just the same ol' coin like it was back in the past.
totally reasonable why people just don't really find investing in litecoin to be interesting anymore.

not to mention that the price of lite coin in this bullish just don't really get any heat and decide to stay linear for the entire year, people are starting to forget this coin in favour of other more hyped up coin such as BTC, ETH, BNB, SOL and so on.
there's just simply no bright future with this coin in my opinion.

74  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Gas Fees and Rug Pulls: Choosing Your Memecoin Playground on: June 29, 2024, 06:00:25 AM
solana has become den of celeb tokens finding exit liquidity while their narrative over twitter is creating coin for the community, really its just them trying to find some vulnerable greedy people to dump their bags.
so it's good that you trying to avoid this one and i'm doing the same too.

honestly i'm not really interested in the new meme coin anymore, knowing that most of them hardly could make big market cap anymore, I just stick with the meme coin with market cap of $300 million and beyond and the ones that already got listed in big exchange while also having good trading volume, because lately they give good profit enough, no need to take unnecessary risk.

in regard of the coin $BOBO you mentioned just a little information from my analysis it seemed like it has market cap of $121 million yet having trading volume just a little bit more than $2 million it means the meme coin is illiquid while also having many holders holding the coin worth as much as the trading volume, quite the red flag for me personally.

this is top 6 - 10 address by token amount just compare it with trading volume.

75  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: VanEck Files for Spot Solana ET on: June 28, 2024, 07:33:21 AM
as expected if one altcoin is approved of ETF other will also follow,

the ETF for solana I think is still unnecessary, not even ethereum ETF goes into trade and other altcoin is already ready for filing the ETF its actually kinda feels like these companies trying too hard with these altcoins ETF.
the thing is if trend like this keeping up, people will consider ETF as just another "exchange listing", it will take away the enthusiasm.

I really think these companies and corporations need to wait a little bit before filing for another ETF, let us see how the ethereum ETF plays out first, but thats just my irrelevant opinion.
76  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The State of Layer2 Solutions in Today’s Crypto Market on: June 28, 2024, 07:29:07 AM
Now seeing blast after launch it was underwhelming honestly, i'm also one of the people that participated into its series of campaigns such as earning blast gold and so on, surpisingly only earned peanut for task needed a whole year.



IMO, most of L2 are now valued so low but whether its undervalued or not is still a question, $ZK got money raised $458 through series of founding rounds only to produce a blockchain valued at $600m, on the other hand blast TVL reaching multi billions only for the governance token to be valued at around $377 million and that with many of the token owned by the top earner still in vesting period.

L2 narrative is done and people just don't dump their money in these L2 tokens anymore, I expect disappointing result from scroll and the likes as well for the future airdrops.
77  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Could TON be the new Solana? on: June 28, 2024, 07:01:54 AM
It definitely could, the mini games that's currently available in TON that literally gained hundred millions of user definitely such a good exposure for TON to become popular among the massive crowd, but I think the entire ecosystem of this blockchain isn't even reaching stage where it's as good as its competition, this blockchain is relatively new, so it needs to take time to build something around the blockchain but the fact that  tether deployed their stablecoin in this blockchain could means they see potential in this.

i really liked the fact that the recent emerging project that gained massive userbase also being supported by the founder of TON, i think the future looks bright with this blockchain, one thing they need to do is to bring in more and more meme coins, despite its just tool for speculation, but BASE and SOL could grow this far because community of meme coin populating the entire blockchain causing it to grow, TON really needs that kind of community to use their blockchain possibly replacing SOLANA blockchain where it seems the hype has faded there with the capital spread out to too many of meme coins and due to the fact that entire solana blockchain right now infested with shitty celeb token.

I mean to be fair recent dump of BTC from $70k all the way to $62k already shows us how significant bitcoin price could affect the other altcoins prices.

some L1 and L2 blockchain literally dumping so hard its actually ridiculous, ZKsync with its massive investment from the venture capital that happen to release their coin at the time bitcoin dumping could only get $500 million capital which honestly disappointing, other coin such as TIA literally dumping from $12 to $6 and lost 50% of its value, if bitcoin goes below $60k marks its probably bearish season for altcoin if i'm being frank.

the entire market is carried by bitcoin and we can't deny that. good thing ETH still quite resilient since that is where most of my money is, but can't deny i've lost my share of capitals too.

What is everyone's thoughts? will this make much of a difference to current market conditions?

I am hoping we can have a good few weeks after many weeks of altcoins bleeding.

https://news.bitcoin.com/bloomberg-analyst-doubles-down-on-july-2-spot-ether-etf-launch-date-amidst-surge-in-s-1-filings/

While Mt Gox will start supposedly repaying the victims BTC14000 worth approximately 9 billion USD from July, the good news that you have delivered might help the market from crashing like it did in early 2018. I still remember after Bitcoin made a big milestone in December of 2017 those who were holding Bitcoin from 2009 sold a few and the price of Bitcoin went to $3,709.

That according to me would be one of the biggest crashes. The reason is that after a successful ATH, the price of Bitcoin was 73 percent down. I do not think that the price of Bitcoin will go down so much after the victims of 2014 recieve their Bitcoin. Still, there is hope that if Ethereum ETFs get the same response as Bitcoin ETFs then there is a chance that alt season will start. That will concurrently hold the overall cryptocurrency market.
I'm sure that market can always contain such big amount of BTC eventually though and the receiver of those bitcoins probably won't just sell the coin right off the bat.
most of the crashes are always intensified by the ongoing rumour back then there was collapses of FTX which also trigger domino effects, I still remember there are so many altcoin projects getting affected that entire market mood turn into muddy within just a week. however current mtgox sell off event might indeed trigger flash dump but I suppose its not gonna be that sharp as long as the market sentiment is good enough.

Fortunately from this news ETF will get approval by 2nd of july which hopefully could keep the market from being overly afraid of the mtgox sell off taking places. but I honestly still feels rather pessimistic  Grin.

from my observation the thing about $ROSA is that the market cap of the coin itself doesn't justify the liquidity thats available literally 7 million dollar volume for a market cap of $650 million not to mention the exchange isn't really popular.
