What is the use of such tactics to hide VDA tax using a loophole in the law? The government would come up with an update on the current law and then what will happen to the users. There was a time when such tactics were used to manipulate the stock market. The government at that time was helpless as the technology was primitive and India was struggling economically and we all know what happened later on who were in jail and who were not. Already there are many issues that the crypto community is facing in India and the future option does not look so bright for the future.

Apart from spamming the Bitcoin network amd spiking the Bitcoin transaction fees I don't see any real purpose of BRC-20 tokens. They don't have any real case use like Bitcoin and they are a bunch of useless shitcoins. That is why while Bitcoin is gaining an upper price spike they are still heading sideways or are in red. I don't think the existing tokens have any hopes in the future and like a lot of altcoins they would die too.

The final match of the U19 World Cup 2024 will be played today. Both teams have played extremely well in the entire tournament. But, the semifinal between Australia and Pakistan showed the weak batting of Australia. They were struggling to get 180 runs on the scoreboard to win the semifinal game. India has been quite dominant in the entire tournament and has a strong batting depth. As per the bookies India is the favourite to win, which I do belief. Still it is the finals and it will be a game of pressure and skills.

There is speculative news circling in different media outlets that are saying that Kohli won't be available for the last three test matches. Pujara might be called in as his replacement and he would be part of the team for the three tests. BCCI was supposed to announce the final squad yesterday and there was a delay due to Kohli's unavailability in announcing the names. Pujara has been in form and has won a century in the Ranji trophy so I guess if the news is correct then he would replace Kohli.   

A few news outlets are speculating that Pujara might be called for the rest of the series. He recently scored a century in the ongoing Ranji trophy and is in good nick to be part of the team. Jadeja won't be playing the rest of the matches anymore due to his injury the same goes for Iyer. Kohli has withdrawn from the remaining test as he has not confirmed it to the selection committee and the team management. I do not think Bharath would be replaced he will continue to be part of the team in the third test although he has been very bad with wicketkeeping and batting.

It has already gone above $109 and is now at $110.29, the way Bitcoin is pumping I was expecting $SOL to be at $120. I should reach that price point if the market remains green by next week. It is still below its all-time high that it had achieved in 2021 and there is still scope for it to break it before Bitcoin halving. This might be the first time I have seen Bitcoin in green before halving.

Pakistan bowling has been the best in the World Cup. They are now doing the same against Australia's batting. They have managed to get 4 wickets and they might get more. The runs have literally dried down as Australia is struggling. I hope Pakistan can defend the target and win today.
 

AI and crypto are the latest narratives in the crypto space. The intersection of AI and crypto is gaining traction, some projects are exploring AI trading algorithms and AI-based analysis of blockchain data. I think the next thing that would be trending in the upcoming bull run would be AI-powered cryptocurrencies. Some of them are already trending in the current market condition.

I was checking the odds for the upcoming U19 World Cup second semifinal and found that Australia is the favorite and not Pakistan. It's kind of odd as both teams have played well in the tournament up till now. They both have a chance to win the semifinals but why bookies think Australia has the upper hand is unknown to me. I think like the first semifinals we will enjoy the second semifinals and if any of them wins they will play in the finals against India.

While they are enjoying a surge in the volume of their exchange they would come up with such a statement. This is all part of the marketing strategy and I do not think that the government would do anything like what Gupta is expecting. The government won't be reducing the tax as they know with their negative attitude they would be generating more revenue and less stress to themselves.

Where did you get the information that Zuckerberg is involved in creating Pepe coin? Why would he do it when he is already in a business that does not require him to create a meme coin? If he wanted he would use blockchain technology for his business, he is already into Web 3 technology and I do not think he would venture into anything else.

I was not expecting Ashin Kulkarni and Musheer Khan to get out cheaply. They both have been bowling and batting well in the entire tournament and in the semifinals they bombed. After these two got out, it again felt as if the Indian-U19 team was choking in the same manner as the Indian national team did in the ICC tournament. The surprise was Sachin Dhas's aggressive approach at a stage when other batters would like to be defensive. He got the right support from Saharan and both were near to their centuries which unfortunately they did not achieve.

Aren't we discussing altcoin on this board of the forum, then why we would need another? The discussion here is far better and more in-depth than those in other forums. I do not think there is any need to join Discord to discuss altcoins as it won't make any big difference. If you want to you can also start a discussion here on this board about altcoins. Thanks for the invite but most of us would be happy to stay here.

Typo error, it should be XMR and not XRP and you are right the price has recovered a little.

I was reading the blog post of Binance and they said the reason is "When a coin or token no longer meets this standard, or the industry changes, we conduct a more in-depth review and potentially delist it,"

What standards were not met? To me, it looks like pressure from the US first, it was OKX, and now Binance. The next exchange I am assuming would be Kucoin, it always follows Binance in listing and delisting of tokens. 

The PayTM issue is much bigger than it looks. After RBI, NHAI has banned them from issuing FASTag. If anyone is using UPI address that ends with @paytm, please shift to another service provider as it will be banned after 29th of this month. If you are a store owner it is better to start using a different UPI pay receiver as Paytm QR code will not work after the same date. I doubt they will now get thier licence back from RBI as they have broken too many laws.

India-U19 team was once 79/4 in the game's early stages against South Africa. Coming out from that position and winning the game is a big achievement. I had the same feeling when India was losing wickets that they were again choking on an important ICC tournament like the senior team does every time, but it was a surprise when I saw them getting into the finals for the 9th time.

The partnership between Sachin Dhas and Uday Saharan changed the game forever, they both lost the opportunity to get their 100 but were the only contributors to win against the South African team.

The next semifinals will be played tomorrow between AUS-U19 and PAK-U19. My wish is that the PAK-U19 team wins the game so that we can watch them play the finals against India-U19 but my mind says that AUS-U19 will win tomorrow.

India won the toss and choose to bowl first. Looks like a good decision as they have got 2 wickets already. They haven't lost a single match in the tournament because of food batting. The bowling has been impressive as both seamers and spinners have been successfull in breaking the partnership. I have feeling that they would be able to defeat South Africa in the semifinals.

It has been 15 years that Bitcoin has survived all competition and all negativity, but that does not mean that it won't become extinct in the future. Bitcoin can become extinct as nothing in the world is certain. As long as it stays relevant to the people it will not extinct and I do not think there isn't anything that can stop it from being relevant to the world. With more and more altcoins being launched which are nothing but an improved version of it, Bitcoin will face fierce competition. Till now it has squashed all its competition and survived. But the future is unpredictable and so anything can happen.

528 runs lead is not something we see regularly in test cricket. It is beyond reachable for any team, the way South Africa batted in their first innings I doubt they can chase those many runs. For me, it's over and the New Zealand team is a winner in the first test match. Thanks to Rachin Ravindra they are now on the verge of winning this match without any issues.

So, who do you think will be part of the playing team in the third test match? I guess Iyer would be dropped. Bharat would be replaced by someone else. Mukesh would be dropped and Shiraj will be in. I think Patidar would be given another chance. What do you think about Rohit's failure to score runs and what are the options left? Can Rahul be asked to captain the team in the next game as wicketkeeper and captain?
