6701  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Round of 16! on: April 05, 2022, 09:58:55 AM
Liverpool is going to crush Benfica as I have watched both teams how they play in their domestic leagues and Liverpool is at another planet compared to Benfica in terms of quality.Benfica is used to come such far only in Europa League most of the time but in Champions League rarely they have been playing quarter finals,it is since 2015/16 season that they don't.

Benfica is very lucky to have reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League. Now their opponent is strong Liverpool. Since today's match is Benfica's home match, Benfica's players will be more confident. Liverpool must play carefully. Any team at home can be devastating. However, Liverpool's squad players are experienced. They don't seem to be giving Benfica a chance today.
Today's match is one of the matches in the premier league that I have always looked forward to with much excitement, as the game is between Liverpool vs Benfica one may be tempted to underrate Benfica but since their home, that advantage will be there for the club but Liverpool will try their extra best to win the match but it will be a slime chance winning. That is just my prediction anyway.
6702  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: El Salvador has become the first country to make #Bitcoin legal tender! 🇸🇻 on: April 05, 2022, 07:30:47 AM
I was reading some local press from El Salvador, stating that the Chivo Pet Hospital has attended over 9000 services in a month since its formal opening (averaging 300 visits per day). One thing to recall here is that each service is priced at a ridiculously low fee: 0,25$ in BTC, which is extremely low for the country.

The first of the below-linked articles indicates that 100% of the service payments have been made using Chivo Wallets. Nevertheless, the 0,25$ in BTC per service seems to be a promotional price, for those that pay using their Chivo Wallet. Attempts to pay in cash are priced at private clinic service value (no indication as to the average price though, to compare).

There seems to be some confusion as to what the fee per service is for payments in BTC using a wallet other than a Chivo Wallet. The second referenced article below claims that, when contacting the call center and querying on the matter, they indicated that the promotional price only applied to payments made through a Chivo Wallet. Nevertheless, the promotional price was initially announced as applicable to any digital wallet.

See:
https://diarioelsalvador-com.translate.goog/el-hospital-chivo-pets-supera-las-9000-atenciones-en-su-primer-mes-de-funcionamiento/209388/?_x_tr_sl=es&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=es&_x_tr_pto=wapp

https://www-elsalvador-com.translate.goog/noticias/negocios/chivo-wallet-hospitales-veterinaria/930583/2022/?_x_tr_sl=es&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=es&_x_tr_pto=wapp

El Salvador has made some positive moves to promote the use of the chivo wallets, I guess those using the chivo wallet enjoy various discounts from the government, and with so many government-owned institution payments using Bitcoin is allowed and are given special offers with low fee. The president of El Salvador is a young smart guy since he know how hostile some El Salvador citizens are towards Bitcoin adoption the best way to give Bitcoin the right acceptance is by making its payments on services cheaper and enjoying good discounts.

Privacy concern is probably one reason.
Yes and no, mainly because someone who is going to buy bitcoin at an ATM probably is going to get only a few hundred dollars, not big quantities. And as far as I remember those ATM don't have very good prices but again if you buy only $100-200 you won't even notice that.
Right I will rather choose to spend on the Bitcoin ATM rather than buy, my most satisfaction will be when I can easily pay at a coffee shop with my Bitcoin debit card or using my Bitcoin card in a shopping mall 🏬 to pay for glossaries.
On the issue of kyc I think KYC is only required when you are about to make a Bitcoin purchase over the Bitcoin ATM.
6704  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Three thousand Bitcoin ATM Installed In first quarter Of 2022 on: April 04, 2022, 04:51:18 PM

Liverpool is now leading with 1 goal and at the 66 minutes the match seems to be heading to a win for Liverpool which will further increase the club's point on the table, Liverpool will have a better chance against other top 5 clubs as to who tops the league in this season.
I believe the game will end soon with Liverpool's victory. now the score is 2-0, Fabinho adds a goal from the penalty. Liverpool was outstanding with the possession and the chances they had.
Congratulations to those who have placed bets for Liverpool.
This 2 goals victory for Liverpool is an indication that Liverpool is prepared to top the league table and their number of goals scored in the premier league have increased. If Manchester City failed to deliver in the next match the outcome of that will be Liverpool taking the first spot and that will be sustained throughout this round.

trade calmly, then we will not be under pressure from dumps or panic sells that occur in the market,
 Luse a good strategy and don't be selfish, set aside capital and don't use the whole capital just to buy coins,
because that's what makes us under pressure in the market. market when panic sell occurs, I hope we are fine.
When it comes to trading or investment one needs to have a calm spirit and a huge understanding of the situation, the right time to take every right action.
Once you build your knowledge about certain assets don't be moved by short term actions no matter their impact on the price of your coin, as long as you are holding a potential coin you will have the confidence that no matter what happens in the market you will continue to hold and not follow fuds and the mainstream media.

Manchester city are on fire when it comes to the champions league. They dominated each of their games, they are on streaking wins because city boss Pep won't allow any team to compete with him. Athletico madrid on the other hand are also good interms of defensive football. They would target a draw in the first leg of the game. That's what Diego Simeon is good at, and he is one the oldest coach in Athletico madrid currently. The game is really going to be a tough one. Definitely it's going to be survival for the fittest. I hope City wins the game because they deserve this trophy more than any team present in the quarter finals. They have been to final last season but lost to Chelsea. This season won't be the same as last season. Alot of unimaginable things are going to happen.
Manchester City is the favourite to qualify to the next round and they have the capacity, good team and coach to do that. But one thing about Manchester City is that no matter how good they are in the English premier league, they cannot be trusted in the Champions League. If not for last season they managed to reach finals and lost it because of coach experiment. Other years they use to be  eliminated exactly at this stage. So Manchester City need to be more careful and ensure they score a lot of goals that is what is going to save them.
Manchester City would have learned from their past mistakes after several attempts to become the champion but failed at the last stage, I just wish Manchester City will correct all their past mistake am being able to walk away with the champion league trophy. At the moment the is no strong team/club that will battle that with them haven't seen how the club performs at the premiere leagues.

Liverpool is not supposed to surprise you in Epl since 5 seasons ago. Liverpool has been performing very well in Epl, infact it use to sadden me that they will have upto 90 points in the league and yet will not win the league because of Manchester City that will have upto 100 points. At anytime Liverpool is not supposed to surprise anyone. Though they are not the champions of England I use to consider them as champions.
I always have this feeling that Liverpool is better than Manchester City, I don't know why.
Liverpool as it stands can not be rated higher than Manchester City because judging from the club's points and goals Manchester City is higher than Liverpool with a point which Liverpool will have to fight to be a/ that point before topping the points table. If Liverpool could win the two upcoming matches and man city plays a draw in any of their two matches they will lose their position to Liverpool.
6712  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: April 02, 2022, 09:46:12 AM
In the premier league, one of the clubs that have surprised me is Liverpool who has performed so well to the point of becoming the second on the premier league table, the next round out of the league may be fully controlled by just two clubs that is Manchester City and Liverpool.

Manchester city are just like that they don't take chances or take things for granted. They also have good coach who is good at what he does to see the team to always do better, one thing I like Manchester City is that no matter how a team is so tough they don't give up, and they try their best that the game is a victory for them. Athletico madrid is a good team that is doing well but I am not sure if they can win Manchester city.

I agree that Manchester City is one of the favorites to win the Champions League, but there are other candidates for the title, like Bayern, Real or Liverpool.
Personally, it seems to me that the main reason why Manchester City has not won the Champions League title so far is the lack of luck, but also the excessive caution of their coach Guardiola in key matches for the title.
Guardiola has yet to prove that he can win the Champions League with a team other than Barcelona and in which Messi doesn't play.
Only then will he be able to say that he is the greatest coach and Manchester City the best club.

If you have been following history you will be familiar with Manchester City's pattern of play, they are always ready looking for opportunities, the championship is not different that is how they have been playing since from the first round of the premier down to the champion league man city are equal to the task.

I think the fixtures of this round of the UEFA champion's league is easy to point the teams to qualify except for the the Madrid Vs Chelsea fixture and that of ATM Vs Manchester City. A tie can go in anyone's favor in that Madrid—Chelsea game, it is going to be 50 - 50. On paper, it look like City are better than Atletico madrid owing to the fact that Atlético Madrid's LaLiga title defence have been weak this season to be honest, but of recent they have looked their old selves knocking out Manchester United and that really came off as a shock to many. I think Manchester City should be wary of Atletico and I trust Guardiola would have try to figure out how to beat Diego Simeone this time around.
Like we always say, this is football anything can happen and as long as the clubs maintain a stable standard gaining points won't be a thing to worry about. Chelsea has a good chance to win the match and Manchester city also will fight hard to retain its points or better still increase they points of the tournament will be a very powerful stage and fixture will bring out the best in the clubs
6715  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Round of 16! on: April 01, 2022, 09:36:34 PM
Quarterfinal first leg matches begin. The Benfica-Liverpool match will be challenging and with plenty of goals.  Benfica will win. My favorite is City, in City-A.Madrid match. I am waiting for a surprise in the Villarreal-B.Munih match. Villarreal will be the winning team. Chelsea football club which is having a hard time will win if they concentrate on the Madrid match.
The two top premier league clubs will not want to miss their chance of moving to the next stage of the competition. Benfica might  seem as a threat to liverpool but i see Liverpool winning with a slim aggregate difference. Mancity is the favorite in their game against Athletico. We saw how Athletico struggled to beat Manchester united even when united isn't on form. The English league has it's unique style and Athletico might not match up to City

For Chelsea's match against Real Madrid the first leg performance will decide what should be expected. It might be look like an equal chance for both team but for me Madrid has a higher chance in the game.
It will become less fun and easier if the one topping the premiere league table to become the 1st runner up, if any club apart from either Chelsea, Liverpool or man city the tournament will be less fun and I believe in the next coming round will be a knock out stage.

Well, many projects choose to option of proof of stake rather than proof of work because the operational and scalability of the 1st POS is more flexible since it is seen as the less energy and eco-friendly way of processing the transaction.

Liverpool is expected to top their group and the fixture may give Liverpool a tough play but am confident in Liverpool's ability to push through this stage of the league which will lead to an increase in their overall point.

Thank you So Much for your kind attention and reply! I am talking about trading, for example daily trading. I agree there are gamblers in the market as well that just buy and sell sentimentally , but if you monitor the market since November again you will see there is not any clear trend and technically most of the indicators do not work properly! Maybe it is a war signal and the market predicted that , but it is an event, not a trend, right?
I don't believe in trading indicators since most of them never give a guaranteed outcome, market conditions can go whichever way since the cryptocurrency is generally volatile. Being a daily trader you will need to rely more on personal analysis and being technical and simple will make your work easy.

Champions League 2020/2021 season Chelsea managed to beat Real Madrid 2-0 at Stamford Bridge so that Chelsea managed to qualify because at the Santiago Bernabeu they got a 1-1 draw based on head to head in the UCL. This season will look different and it is still difficult to predict who will advance to the semifinals. Even so, I believe Real Madrid will qualify. Chelsea's chance to qualify is still there by not letting Real Madrid dominate possession.
I think even though this happened a few years ago but this cannot be used as a reference because indeed they are now in a different phase and Chelsea may be more difficult now because their internal problems have not been resolved properly until now.
Madrid, on the other hand, are underdogs but after beating PSG in the previous round they look promising now

indeed it happened a few years ago. but the Chelsea squad that beat Real Madrid at that time, nothing changed with the current squad. So I'm sure Chelsea will repeat the history of the past few years. because real Madrid's current performance is not the best even though they can beat psg but it's a lucky win.
The only thing that has changed for Chelsea is the fact that the club owner is facing a lot of sanctions from the Russian Ukraine invasion which also have affected the club's ability to sign new players and if there is no new signing the club may not be able to meet up with future demands. But of this current challenge on Chelsea pass 💯 the club should be able to carry the trophy 🏆 this season.
The other strong opposition will be Manchester City and Liverpool who will give Chelsea a good run-up.
