Ancelotti is still doing fine, but it is not yet even clear whether he even wants to continue if I am not wrong. I think he is very relaxed and exactly knows the club his dealing with there. He is everything but an amateur and he knows how Real Madrid works. I believe that if Real Madrid was negotiating with another coach already, the relationship between Ancelotti and Real Madrid is so good that they would probably inform him in advance. Also, he wouldn't be the first coach who has to leave the club even when it is actually looking good for them.
Even we can give any perfect prediction about any person or spot in soccer because we can expect any surprising result or announcement from their side most chances Carlos Ancelotti will complete his contract, and then he will take retirement from this job as now he is going to be over 65 which is enough for any person to take rest and spend his rest of life with family and here he has also done amazing job while no one was expecting double from Real Madrid in last season, and they achieve this which is historic job but now in this season Real Madrid is surely suffering due to some injuries and lack of attacking striker which is surely problem for them but most chances this could be settled after end of this season, and they will do good again now they are having no chance for the title in La Liga and Copa del Roy but Champions League journey is still good, and they can do again any shock to soccer world.

Can this be done without a $100 principal
Yes of course! If you invest 100 dollars into the right thing today, you are going to be a millionaire in a few  weeks, but be careful, you will see it reach a thousand dollars first, and then ten thousand and then one hundred thousand dollars all before a million, do not sell before you see it happen!

My God, these topics really piss me off, crypto is not a place for you to get rich quick and then suddenly have a huge amount of money, it is a place where you will be working towards getting richer like any other job, if you work hard you will find good investments that will make you a bit richer, and you need to do it hundreds, even thousands of times to be rich.

How to go from poor to millionaire fast in crypto?
This is the wrong perception about crypto, many thoughts its an easy escape and hope for an instant profit but in reality its not that easy not unless you are lucky enough to hit the jackpot in gambling or you are able to acquire good token and pump 1000x. I suggest to learn how this market work, analyze first and set-up your budget with this you might achieve your target profit within a year.
Yes, there is no such thing as that and if it's possible then all of us that are here in crypto are rich now and we are not here replying in this thread. I would rather believe if he say how can one go from millionaire to being poor with crypto. That is more possible with the number of scams here. Scammers can emptied your money fast enough.

Crypto is an escape route to the slavery of the banks and governments because cryptos are decentralized currencies. This was their main purpose so people should focus on it. If they can earn a profit from crypto because of their limited supply and volatility then it should only be taken as a bonus. They shouldn't be greedy and expect more.

What happened in England yesterday should not give us confidence that Liverpool can resist and beat Real Madrid in the returning leg of champions League. The seven goals scored by Liverpool does not happen every time in England.
Snd you can not score Real Madrid that amount of goals in Champions League so I still believe that Liverpool cannot come back in that very much against Real Madrid .

The best for Liverpool is to try and maintain this form in order to be in the English Premier League top four. And be able to come back to Champions League by next season.
Yeah, playing in Premier League and having match against Real Madrid in Champions League completely different things and Liverpool can't do performance like this at Santiago Bernabéu which is home of Real Madrid but now here situation is completely change after match against Manchester United with these hopes are high for their next seasons Champions League spot so if now they are going to have exit from this it's going to be ok for them but most chances now results could be interesting because Liverpool win against Manchester United is surely going to have big impact on their performance in coming days as well.
Real Madrid is surely darling team in Champions League, and they are also struggling in La Liga but in this event they are still had ability to perform more than expectations which is their trademark.

If ever the known no-kyc p2p exchanges returned no results. I say try hitting some social networking platforms as well and see if it’s possible to invite someone over. A lot of people actually trade on discord, facebook, telegram, etc. without or a with a filmsy “escrow”. These people most likely don’t know there are better alternatives to do p2p that’s why they settle for such…
Or people cant really just afford on doing so or really that much afraid.Its true that there are other ways or paths on doing p2p but since the most common way would really be on those known exchange platforms
then this is where they would really be sticking into that belief and principle which would lead no choice but to make out some verification before they could unlocked up such feature.

In some key areas which its not really that necessary since there are methods or ways but people would really be surrendering out their identity for the convenience
and easy access on using up platforms which i couldnt really blame them out.
Being afraid to get scammed might be their number one reason on why they don't use any p2p sites. I doubt those people will go for some alternatives mentioned by @Potato Chips especially telegram because we know that there are so many scammers lurking on this platform.

There are so many people who use social media sites like Facebook and twitter but there are so many fake profile here, unless if the person that they will transact with show some solid proof that they are legit. Using a centralized exchange and then doing the kyc verification is not what you call convenient but it was kind of hassle however if this was the only way to do a safer transaction then why not?
626  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: How is DeFI exactly Decentralized ? on: March 05, 2023, 06:51:51 PM
Ok so I am learning lots about DeFI and NFTs. I am watching videos on how these Defi exchanges work, also reading the user guides and trying to follow the money by looking at the blockchain.

From what I understand. You generally use Metamask and this is used to Connect your Metamask to some Defi exchange you want to use. However this is where I am confused.

In these videos AND from the "getting started" guide, after you connect your Metamask, you still need to do a Deposit to be able to trade. So after you make a deposit, the funds are REMOVED from your Metamask and appear in the Defi exchange account balance. It doesn't stay in your Metamask account so you no longer have control of those funds.

So if the Defi exchange goes bankrupt like FTX, your assets are also going to be lost. So it still seems centralized. Only difference is instead of using a username/password/2fa to login to the website all you do is use your Metamask to login.
Last time I tried a web3/decentralized crypto casino and my experience is exactly the same as you. I did wonder on why depositing is still needed but what I thought is my funds will immediately appear in my gambling account right after I connect my wallet on the site. I then say that this thing seems doesn't make any sense. Was it only like a gimmick or what? They are also risky than their centralized competitor because we are risking our whole wallet by the time we connect them in the website.

I already saw cases like this where users wallets got emptied because they connect in a scam site. What is worse is that scammers can get away easily because it was decentralized anyway.
627  Economy / Speculation / Re: what now ? on: March 05, 2023, 06:29:32 PM
It cannot be identified on a single step because in recent year the market is really unstable so the price will regularly changes. Bitcoin price is lower in price but not as lower as in previous year now its neither too low nor so up but is estimated that it will go more up in coming month.

When bitcoin is higher in price then it does not mean that this is a bullish period as there is regular alterations in cost and one cannot say that now its up and will remain up. We should wait some time and hopefully bitcoin will pump once again and this pump will be beneficial for everyone.
It's been a month since the op ask this question. 1 month of waiting must be enough already to have a conclusion if what do we think is the state of the market at least for the first quarter only because the year was still long and there must be a major change that will happen later on. The gains that we have last month are still here so I still believe that we are still on the beginning of a bull run.

I am sorry to say this but yeah @op you already missed the bottom. Sorry, bro but you have your reason on why you missed it. You are less active here and maybe you are more active in your personal life. You must be earning decent there so you shouldn't regret that much. You still can invest late and expect to earn something once we finally complete the whole bull cycle.

If you look at Nantes' performance, they are not in good momentum after losing 1-0 to Rennes in their last game. Nantes did manage to bounce back with a win over Lens in the French Cup, but the tension in league matches is definitely different and For PSG, a win will greatly boost their mentality. PSG need good capital for their confidence, starting with the win over Nantes this weekend because PSG also needs full points to stay strong at the top of the standings.
PSG has a match tomorrow, I can't say for sure that PSG will win this match. This is because from my experience in previous games, PSG team has lost and drawn matches against some weaker teams.
Now, we have third match of round 26 which is going to play between PSG vs Nantes after few hours and things are looking tricky because PSG is having injuries issue with now they are going to play against Bayern Munich for the second leg of Champions League round 16 match which is more important for them with this all I have feeling this match can end in a draw which could be also bonus for the visitors Nantes because they are doing good in last few rounds and have chance for the few points from here as well.

Nantes which is currently in safe zone having good time with first two matches of this 26th round ended in draw and score was same, hopefully they could be also on same way for the good end of this match against leaders because they want to save their players for the big game and PSG is also having 8 points difference from second spotted Marseille as well.

After Cristiano Ronaldo left the team, the team managed to get back to its original rhythm. Right now Manchester United is in great form. The team managed to secure victory in most of the matches.
I think that much more important than the departure of Ronaldo was the arrival of a new coach who united the team, prepared them well and raised the level of their game.
Manchester has not had such a good coach and strategist for a long time and Manchester finally acts as a serious club that knows what it wants and has a plan and vision to achieve it.
Their victory against Barcelona and great games in the English championship are not accidental, but the result of serious work and preparation.
For me, Manchester is now one of the main favorites to win this competition.
No doubt we can say right now Erick ten Hag is right person on right job as Manchester United and just after his arrival we have exit of Cristiano Ronaldo which was surely had negative impact on teams performance for last few seasons and no one was having anything to stand against him but new coach done good work and talk with management which works for them, and now they are on right track for having golden days back after few years of bad performance hopefully now in next few months we will have better things and positive results which will give more excitement to fans and this club will be able to bring more trophies here at Old Trafford.
 
Victory against Barcelona and then having EFL Cup win surely double booster for the fans and players which are now going to be more energetic and try their best for achieving better results because now things are changing and environment is also positive in this club for doing good jobs in all departments.

It's sad that Arsenal are a strong team but are 1-0 behind  against a weak team like Bournemouth.  Half time is already over in the game.  It is now doubtful that Arsenal will score twice in the second half to beat Bournemouth 2-1 as Bournemouth will be desperate to protect to the goal instead of trying to score ang goal now. Arsenal had another chance today to win the match by a high margin and collect some good points to stay tighter on the number one position in the Premier League table.  Because Man city has already won 2-0 with Newcastle and is almost level with Arsenal in terms of points
No doubt about Arsenal strength or their strategy but today Bournemouth doing amazing job with after just 60 minutes of play now they are leading by 0 - 2 which could be big setback for the Gunners because this lost can cost them for title as well after this lost difference could be only 2 points which is surely achievable for the Manchester City which is having better strategy and performance in last few games.

84% ball possession with 16 shots on goal and still not able to score any goal and Bournemouth which is having just 16% ball possession and just 3 shots on goal are already score two goals which are surely amazing from them for this match and title race of this season as now with this win they are also out of the relegation zone for time being as well.

Well, I am not so sure about the Asia cup being held in Pakistan. After all, what is happening so far does not indicate that Pakistan will actually be able to host the Asia cup. India is strongly opposing this idea. And in the end, considering the fact that Pakistan does not have a stable situation in the country, I don't think Pakistan will finally be able to post the Asia cup.
What is going to happen with Asia Cup we will have all updates in next few days because there was deadline for this event, and we are expecting another meeting for the solution with most chances if Pakistan insist for this event to be held in Pakistan then most chances India is not going to participate in this event, and they have to organize this event without them which is possible even market could be having big setback with this all but this matter is sure now we are not going to have any cricketing event between these two countries in next few decades because tension is at his highest level and no one going to accept others will which is also not good here in this region most chances we will have this event in the UAE or another postponement.
632  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin or Altcoin hold, sell or trade?? on: March 03, 2023, 09:14:01 PM
You got it, right, buddy?
If you want to HODL, I would suggest Only Bitcoin. Most altcoins create pumps for the short term. The dev team spends money on marketing to pump it more. People keep buying when they see that they have touched their target price. The dev team increased the coin supply, and the coin star lost value daily. This is pretty much a scam, in my opinion. So, I won't suggest altcoins to hold.

You can trade with altcoins. Altcoins are too much volatile. It gained price so fast and went down quicker than that. So, if you want to trade with altcoins, you can do so. If you want to HOLD Crypto long-term, there is no coin except BTC.
That's true, holding bitcoin is good enough that you wouldn't really need to do anything else. Sure, you can give it a try and do some more things but that doesn't mean that you have to, it just means that you want to.

Things that you should are limited to just buying bitcoin and holding as long as you possibly could, that's the "should" part, that's what everyone needs to do, but when it comes to what you want to do, you can do the most silly and risky things that you want, that's on your own and if you make a mistake and buy something that is terrible then it's your own mistake and you should own up to it and not make the same mistake again later on.

Zidane is the coach that PSG really hopes for, that's a rumor very often i read in several media. However, Zidane has a history with Juventus and there is an assumption that Zidane has a chance to coach Juventus too. When it comes to opportunities, I think Juventus have more opportunities than PSG. Returning to Madrid, it seems not, because there is a possibility that he will look for other club options. Chelsea? I'm not sure he will going to Chelsea.
Zidane's this statement is surely lifeline for few clubs like PSG, Chelsea and Newcastle United because currently first two are going to have changed their coaches in coming summer window and Newcastle United is also looking for bringing good name in soccer which is possible with the person like Zidane which already done amazing stuff at Real Madrid and having amazing career in soccer as well even currently Eddie Howe is going good job but at the top level he fails to maintain momentum which is key for staying at the top and having good results near the end of season.

PSG most chances will again lose in Champions League which could be big problem, and they will also try with Zidane and Chelsea is already in deep trouble as Graham Potter is not suitable even they spend good amount for better results.
634  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: March 02, 2023, 08:29:34 PM
There is a significant level of decrease in Newcastle's performance for many weeks. I don't see it weird actually because they have already done much more than the expected level from them. They are just trying to cling on to top 4 now. Tottenham are going to be a really tough opponent for them about that goal. Actually even though the point gap between them is 4 points Newcastle have 2 missing matches on one hand. If they manage to win those both they can capture the 4th spot again.

However before all that they have a really challenging Manchester City match. Honestly I don't expect Newcastle to get a win there. I guess Manchester City would decrease the number of simple mistakes to minimum from now on.
Newcastle performance reduce rapidly after the world cup, they are no longer consistent in their league games and also losing to manchester united in the carabao cup final is a big loss for the club. The magpies boss, Eddie Howe will handle his squad and try bring out the best from his players. Their ultimate decision is to qualify for the top four spot this season, they're already losing it gradually to Tottenham Hotspur which they should make sure it doesn't happen.
Suddenly things are looking from bad to worse for them because with this current form most chances they could be out of the top rank as well because they are having just three points from their last four matches and their attack is also losing momentum which is also problem for them if they are not going to fix problems they could be not able to stay at this level and many other teams are capable bringing them down and out of the race for this spot.

Eddie Howe was surely optimistic and have good strategy but this change and poor performance is surely going to hurt them badly with their lost in EFL Cup is also big setback for them because things were looking good, and they were expecting good competition, but Manchester United is now having good change which is giving them good results for many weeks, and they can do better until end of this season.
635  Economy / Speculation / Re: Enough? on: March 02, 2023, 05:18:02 PM
Enough or not depending on how high your dreams about:
- how high the bitcoin price will reach.
- how much you want something with bitcoin even though the value of the investment is quite high for the average ppl.

When it comes to greed, what I know is that humans are never enough. They'll place regret in any situation.
If we invest a big amount of money, we can expect a greater return even if Bitcoin didn't reach a big amount but for the person like the OP whose maximum potential is only 0.1BTC, they may need to adjust in terms of waiting. This is the only disadvantage here if they if ever they want to earn big with that tiny amounts they invested with.

Amounts like that will still look big in the eyes of those poor people so the OP should still be proud if he can be able to achieve that value because for others it will be almost impossible for them to accumulate it. I don't see a greedy mindset with the OP because being greedy means you don't set any limits.

Most importantly for Liverpool they managed to not lose four games in a row. Now the goals were scored pretty late but Liverpool controlled the full game and rewarded themselves eventually. This was all that Klopp could go for in order to be perfectly prepared for one of the most important games of the season against Manchester United on Sunday.

Manchester United also didn't like what they saw from Liverpool now. It is a home game for Liverpool where they could make an important step towards the top four. For Manchester United a win would be a strong statement in the direction of Manchester City.
At the end of the day, it is really not that much of a shock to see Liverpool playing so well, and could beat almost anyone. Because they always had that talent in the team, they were already a good team and they had good players, the only thing lacking was "care", they played like they didn't care at all, it looks like that is gone now and that is the issue, we are looking at a situation where it is really just them coming back to how they were just last year, and that is very good. But, in overall it is really a bit of a chaos I agree as we do not know who will win against who because anything could happen at this moment, so betting is a bit harder than usual.
637  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is Neither Good or Bad on: March 02, 2023, 09:45:39 AM
Honestly it all depends on who you are going to be asking, if you ask a winner who has gone from wagering a $100 bill to getting a million out of gambling there is no way such a person would ever say gambling is bad.. But if you ask someone that blew huge sums of money to a point of amassing debt, relationships breaking up and losing valuable properties as a result of trying to get back to winning ways then gambling will always be labeled bad.
To turn a hundred dollar to a million is not easy. It takes a lot of trials and error. Pretty sure that the person will advice anyone to not follow what he was doing because the consequences can be damaging if one is not too professional to handle his huge losses.

Those who lost their entire life in gambling, don't have the rights to blame it to gambling because it was their own fault at the first place on why they become addicted. Other people are only enjoying the game and they have no problems with gambling. We can win and stop in gambling but we can come back again later on. Others will just continue playing because they know that they will still end up with that.

I have been a crypto enthusiast for some time now,thou I have lacked consistentency,but over the years I have seen people who have carved out good lives for themselves with crypto,either by direct or indirect investment.,as a result I wish to invest in crypto with cash,but with minimal knowledge,so I seek the help of this house in advise on which crypto to invest in currently as someone who is just getting to learn about crypto currency.
Understanding that bitcoin is the biggest and the best is the most important part of this. After that, I think finding the one that helps you the most should always be priority. I understand that it is not going to be as simple as having anything that doesn't hurt you as well, like ETH for example may not work for you but works for many people so you could have it, those type of investments are pretty good as well.

But, if you could find something that will benefit you more than other coins, something you like to use, something that is basically attractive to you, could make it even more interesting. This way you could be following it a lot more closely.

Juventus defeated Torino 4-2 in a tough match. I can say that the match was very competitive. Although Torino played more dominant in the first half, they conceded a goal after the goal and could not maintain their superiority. The first half ended 2-2 and in the second half Juventus increased the pressure and scored. In the end, they won 4-2 and I think they got an important 3 points for themselves. It should be noted that they recovered well despite 15 points being deducted from them. They reduced the point difference with 6th placed Atalanta to 6.
Fourth consecutive win for the Juventus even Torino was superior in this game and have good control as well, but sadly they were not able to handle pressure from spirited Juventus which is playing amazing after deducting of 15 points now with this win they are at 7th spot and have six points difference from struggling Atlanta which is having three defeats from their last four games and with this result most chances they can drop from their current spot because Juventus current aggression can bring them to sixth or fifth spot until end of this season even if they are able to stay on this level they can give tough challenge to Lazio which is currently at fourth and now in next week they are going to visit leaders Napoli which can cut this difference as well.

Villareal is really just getting lucky at this point if you ask me, and I can't believe that such team would be doing this badly. I mean we have seen this team try to fight their way into UCL just recently, not too long ago, and this season and now they are 7th in the league for some reason, you would expect them to at least fight for UCL spot this season wouldn't you?

Sure they finally got a win, but that doesn't change the fact that they have been losing for a long time now, that losing streak really disrupted their whole season and they really need to get a winning streak starting in order to get back to where they were in order to be happier.
I agreed about Villarreal how things gone into wrong way for them, it's surely the biggest concern for them because few weeks back they were favorite for the UEFA Champions League spot, and now they are struggling in the middle which is big drop and with current form most chances they have no chance for the top four even few teams are also having bad results, but things are not easy for them to have any chance with most chances they can go into UEFA Europa cup which is possible in last match against Getafe they have done better performance but still need more improvement if they want to stay in better spot with now their next challenge is against Almeria which already beats Barcelona and can give them challenging competition for any positive result.
