Buying when there is shrink in the price of bitcoin is good, but my question is what if you were ready to buy when the price is up will still wait until the price comes down before you buy, that's why I always encourage people to buy when they are ready to buy, no doubt, the best time to accumulate bitcoin is downtrend but identifying the exact period is not easy, bitcoin volatile has made it impossible for people to predict it's movement, am of the opinion people should invest when the have the money to do so, since the value remains intact, I said so because waiting till it's downtrend might result to less interest or even spending of the fund set aside for it.
In fact, those who want to hold Bitcoin for a short period of time or to be profitable for the time being can wait for the market to go down. But if you believe in Bitcoin and if you are determined to invest in Bitcoin for the long term then I would say this is the right time. There are many who wanted to invest in Bitcoin when they had $16000 but everyone can see what happened to their situation today. Today bitcoin price is at $44000, with in shortest possible of time it can touch 50K and after that it may touch ATH. It is not that the market always will be bullish. The market can go down at any time. But considering the current time, I think it is not a suitable time to expect a downside in the market. I think it is better to hold as much as possible and it is definitely right time to invest in Bitcoin.

In first game, UAE won the toss and first decided bowling. Afghanistan batsman makes 17 run in 3 over and 1 out. Afghanistan batsman could not worked hard and struggle. Afghanistan batsman makes 42 run in 7 over and 1 out. UAE bowler out the Afghanistan batsman in the last ball of the 8 over. This is the second achievement for UAE team. Afghanistan batsman makes 61 run in 10 over and 2 outs. Afghanistan batsman could not make run. Afghanistan batsman makes 115 run in 20 over and 2 outs. Afghanistan batsman makes 214 run in 48 over and 10 outs. This is the target for UAE team.
Afghanistan won this match by 109 runs against UAE. Afghanistan batting first and scored 214 runs all out in first inning of match.While chasing down UAE scored 105 runs all out in just 30.4 overs. Dhruv Parashar batting well scored 38 runs unbeaten in just 61 balls. The bowling performance of Afghanistan team in this match very amazing and especially the batting performance of Yamin Ahmadzai is outstanding picked 5 important wicktes by giving 22 runs in 6.4 overs.
Afghanistan is definitely better team of these two and in this match UAE will be defeated that is pre calculated. Because they have already performed well in big events like the World Cup. On the other hand, the UAE could not advance much in terms of experience. They don't have much experience playing in any big event, even with big teams. As a result, I think the rate is normal. Although when Afghanistan first batted it looked like they might lose but when UAE started batting it looked like 214 runs were too much. From Yamin Ahmadzai bowling UAE lost 5 of their wickets and UAE lost the match. UAE lost all their wickets in just 30.4 overs.

The match of team has been started between HOBAT HURRICANES and MELBOURNE RENEGADES. MELBOURNE has played the first betting and give a target of 184 scores and second live match has been started in which Hobart has 96 runs, one player is out in 10 overs. According to present conditions of match I think Hobart will win the match because 88 runs are requires in 60 balls. Mathew played well and attained 69 runs and still his betting is start.
In today game, Hobart Hurricanes team get a chance for decide bat or bowl and Hobart Hurricanes chose field first. Melbourne Renegades team set 183 target by losing 5 wickets but this team failed to protect target and lost this game by 6 balls and 6 wickets. M.Wadw batsman scored 83 runs in 50 balls and he hitted nine 4s and three 6s. He dismissed from pitch by K.Richardson. M.Wright batsman scored 63 balls in 36 balls and he hitted five 4s and five 6s and this batman also dismissed and showed brilliant effort in batting. One more game was concluded today and Sidney Thunder won this game by 5 wickets and 10 balls left.
Hobart Hurricanes won the toss and elected to field. When Melbourne Renegades scored 183 runs in the 1st innings, the result of the match was doubted whether Hobart Hurricanes could win the match? Because it has happened in many matches in the past that it was difficult for the opposite team to win against those who batted first and scored big. Melbourne Renegades were 183 for the loss of 5 wickets while Hobart Hurricanes managed to reach their target in just 19 overs for just 4 wickets. Hobart Hurricanes have played 3 matches so far this is their first win of this season.

Wow, that's great news! Congratulations to the Indian Women's cricket team on their impressive victory against Australia. It must have been an exciting match at Wankhede. What were the standout performances or moments from the game that you enjoyed the most?"

"As we look forward to more cricket action, what are your expectations for the upcoming matches in the Australia Women's tour of India? Any particular players you are excited to watch, or predictions for the series?
India women's team won against Australia in the first and last test match. In this tour they will play a Test and 3-match ODI series and a 3-match T20I series. In the test match Australia lost all wickets for 219 runs in the first innings in contrast to India Women's innings of 406 runs. Which is a much bigger score than Australia. Even in the 2nd innings, Australia could not improve, so India women's team got a great win against Australia. Smriti Mandhana played consistently in both the innings for India Women's team. Jemimah Rodrigues scored 73 and Richa Ghosh also got a 52 runs in the first innings. ‍

Coming 26th of this month there will be two test matches which will be played between Pakistan and Australia. The next would be between India and South Africa, while considering that both these games would be played outside the subcontinent, which team you would support and why? Which team, will win considering there are four teams that are playing against each other in the bilateral series.

I think Pakistan would come back and win the second test match and for the match against India and South Africa I feel India will win. Do you think my prediction would be correct? If not then please state your reason why?
Pakistan Vs Australia,, may be Australia will win the Second test match but I support Pakistan. I support Pakistan since I had little knowledge about the game of cricket. Even if Pakistan loses, I will support Pakistan.
India Vs South Africa, India can win test match. Because South Africa's performance was not that good despite being on their home ground. However, there is no possibility of a Test match draw. 80% chance for India to win.
Australian International cricket team is top class with  best bowlers and best batters. Australian International cricket will win next match or that matches will draw. Pakistani International cricket team is not in good condition because and PCB is playing politics in cricket. Many players are available in Pakistani team became of only strong references . There is only one way to strong Pakistani team ,that is by exiting the referenced players.Pakistani International test cricket team is not performing good. There are many faults in Pakistani players. Pakistani players have to improve their performance to win against big teams.
If the heads of the cricket board look out for their own interest rather than the interest of their cricket, it is certain that cricket will not prosper in his area. If the players are selected with reference to the national team then surely nothing good can be expected there. Such complaints are often seen in the cricket of some Asian countries. But India is completely different in this aspect they have made cricket completely corruption free. Due to which India is so far ahead in cricket. If a good player is not supported in the team from the beginning then no good cricketer will be born.
707  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: December 23, 2023, 05:47:11 PM
op I agree with you. That's because if a country is poor then first of all the government of that country will think about how its people are well. First, the government of the country where there is poverty will try to provide good employment to its people. Then the government should first look at various aspects of education system and medical field. Then comes the cricket, they will consider the cricket of the poor country a little later.
Poor countries don't want to invest in a sport like cricket to the exclusion of other important activities. If a country plays good cricket but is lagging behind in cricket due to lack of funding, then alternative measures would have been taken for them. But what we see in recent times is that the country which is poor is not good at cricket. Let's talk about Zimbabwe cricket, the cricket board of that country is not able to support the cricketers as much as they expect. But if ICC had played a role in all these cases then cricket would have been more competitive. But I think ICC has no focus on that.
708  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can loneliness make one addicted to gambling on: December 23, 2023, 05:38:54 PM
Yes, loneliness can make one a gambling addict. Loneliness can make one become addicted to other things like drugs, alcohol, sex, and masturbation, so it's the same thing with gambling.

When you're lonely and unhappy, you begin to look for things to fill up your time and reduce the sadness. This happens subconsciously most times because you don't make a conscious effort to look for these things, it's just what your mind wants.

Yes, people become more interested in forbidden activities. Especially those activities that are forbidden or cannot be done in front of everyone, people's interest increases a lot when they are alone. Because gambling is still seen as negative in many places, the main reason is addiction ‍and whenever a person is alone, he will get involved in all those addictions. But there are some differences between gambling addiction and other addictions. Those who want to gamble can play online gambling anywhere they want, so being alone or not is not very important. But being alone in other addictive activities will definitely indicate something bad.

West Indian team is champion team and they have capability to win any series and any World Cup but they are very proudy people. And that's why they are unsuccessful to qualify for World Cup 2023. No one expected that West Indian International cricket team will not qualify for World cup.But now West Indian team should work hard and they work on their skills. And west Indian cricket board should collaborate with their players . Their government should increase their payment.If government increase the salary of players, West Indian cricket will improve.
West Indies had a champion team way back in the past where there were monsters like Ambrose and Walsh in their lineup. They don't have a single monster in their lineup these days.

They won against England barely because the English themselves are struggling a lot these days. None of these teams are capable of winning the upcoming T-20 World Cup.
Every team consider West Indies team in T20 cricket differently, but their performance is not the same as before. They failed to qualify in the last ODI World Cup due to which no one is left to understand what stage the team has reached. But their big problem is that the good players in the team do not stay for long. May be the greed of money works among those players or say the cricket board does not have proper leadership. On the other hand, the England team is also not in a very good position at present. If they don't prepare themselves before the upcoming T20 World Cup then it is not possible for them to win the World Cup title.

Bangladesh bowlers have been bowling badly today as they are yet to take a single wicket from the South Africa women's team.
The opening two batsmen of the South Africa women's team have both completed their career centuries.Maybe today Bangladesh will not be able to win this match.Because South Africa Women have already scored 244 runs and they have eight more overs to go and nine wickets in hand.The South American women's team will undoubtedly score 270 and 285 runs.

Edit: South Africa Women's team has just lost one wicket which is 244 runs.

At one side Bangladesh men team has given a historic performance against New Zealand team and on other side their women team is struggling against South Africa team. There is 243 runs partnership between South African captain Laura and Tazmin that resulted in setting a huge total of 316 runs.
Now Bangladesh need to exceptionally bat well to chase 316 runs. The game is important as winner will also win this series.

Bangladeshi batters are far from doing an exceptional batting. Already 4 wickets have fallen within 13 overs with 54 runs. Bangladesh's star performer Fargana Hoque is also out. I don't see Bangladesh winning it.

317 run target is a huge target to chase in a women's cricket game. South African batters showed their prowess and their bowling side is also doing it now as well.
Bangladesh Women team has already come out long before they end the match. Now batting only according to rules and maintain the formality. Bangladesh team lost their 6 wickets in just 20 overs in the 50 overs game. They suffered a disaster at the beginning of the batting. The first four wickets ended in single digits only. A big target of 316 runs on one hand and continuous losing wickets on the other hand these two situations do not give them any positive hope. In this Bangladesh Women tour of South Africa, 2023 Bangladesh lose the ODI series.
711  Economy / Speculation / Re: High transaction fees affects those who DCA on: December 22, 2023, 03:04:13 PM
The current Bitcoin fees wouldn't have mattered to me because I am not selling, but the fees do matter because I DCA, and I don't want to leave my coins in the centralized exchange. This month, I have spent roughly $5 to $10 in transaction fees when I DCA every week. It may seem small, but in my country, it's enough to cover my feeding expenses for a month cumulatively.
This is a big problem for those who transact small amounts with Bitcoin due to its high transaction fees especially those who follow DCA. But since this is a temporary problem, getting excited about it will not find any solution. But now the only solution for those doing DCA is to use Exchange platform. DCA is done by holding it on the exchange platform until the transaction fee is reduced and i think with in shortest possible of time there is no inconvenience to the users. As soon as the transaction fee is low, it can be transferred to different wallets according to one's choice.
712  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Succeeded in introducing Bitcoin to a friend on: December 22, 2023, 02:22:21 PM
Some people are influenced by others. There are many who have changed their lives through friends. This bit of advice you gave about Bitcoin may be the best advice to change his life. Bitcoin is still a suitable investment medium for ordinary investors. Opportunities for small investors are gradually narrowing. After a while, it will become difficult for ordinary people to buy bitcoins other than institutional investors. If your friend can invest in Bitcoin by making a certain amount of money with DCA then he can definitely get a significant rate of return from this investment.

There are two positive and negative aspects mentioned the question. If your friend is honest and trustworthy then there is no problem here but if dishonest then there may be problem. But it would not be bad if you tell him without showing that amount. I would say that  ensure your safety first.

I will not blame CZ as he is not involved in any kind of scam with investors. However, various allegations have been brought against him in recent times. And these allegations are definitely conspiracy. Binance is definitely safer than others for investors. They have proof of reserve in 1:1 ratio with customer deposits. But the main problem is that a company with a large ($9.42 trillion) investment like BlackRock can't lose to Binance. So they are filed various scam allegations against Binance.
714  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Investing in Bitcoin will bring you hope and gambling will leave you destitute. on: December 22, 2023, 01:44:19 PM
No matter how hard you tempt a gambler to invest in reality, he won't find much interest there. Because he wants to see his money change quickly. After losing so much money, your brother may now realize how much damage he has suffered due to his gambling addiction. He took gambling as a platform to earn money. Maybe your brother now realizes his mistakes but he is unlikely to get that money back. This may be a cautionary message to such gamblers in this thread who are into gambling for income rather than entertainment. A few months ago Bitcoin hit its all-time low below $18000. Today, those who held Bitcoin at that time have managed to make around 1.5 times their profits. Investing and gambling are completely different. Gamblers will not be compatible with those who believe in investment.
715  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Gambling affect your relationship? on: December 21, 2023, 04:52:28 PM
It really depends on how you work out your relationship but major reasons of partner's misunderstanding is when one of their partner is involved in gambling activities, worst is being addicted into it. Disclaimer, there's nothing wrong in doing gambling but it's a different matter if your partner is already addicted to gambling and it affects your relationship especially when it comes to time and money. If a person doesn't want to take the negative effect of gambling, He should be responsible enough to avoid such trouble and disappointments from your partner and family.
There is no possibility of any problem if gambling is conducted normally. But the problem arises when a family member becomes an addicted gambler. An addicted gambler will fail to devote time to the family as needed. As a result, there will be a deficiency in the relationship between him and the family and there will be a possibility of breaking the relationship at some point. When the gambler focuses more on gambling then he will be more attracted and at some point he will face such problems. It is often seen that when a person is addicted to gambling, his family members do not want to believe him. Because they fail to act according to their promises.

In the third ODI, South Africa won the toss and decided to field to target. Although India are chatting at the moment but their runs have not increased comparatively much, for which they have not been able to reach 200 runs so far. Indian team batsman Sanju Samson has been batting brilliantly, he is playing perfectly for his century and he has collected 64 runs off 90 balls. If India can bat till the last minute and score 250+ runs, it might be an interesting game against South Africa. Although South Africa are preparing to play today's match with a target so that they can win the series by winning the third ODI match. However, South Africa will try hard enough to win today's match, and I think if South Africa can bat well then it is possible against India.
Sanju Samson  is going well and made 96 runs. And India has made 230 and lost 4 wickets. If Sanju Samson will play till end so I hope India will go above 280 runs. And if India will go above 280 runs so this will be good target for South Africa team. And this will be little bit difficult to chase.
And now while writing this message Sanju Samson has made his century. And India has played 44 overs and 6 overs are left so there is possibility that India can go above 280 runs.
In this match 297 target is not a big target for the South African team. I think if they have wickets they will definitely win. South Africa have some batsmen who can play devastating. But they are not guaranteed. It is difficult to compare them because when they play well there beyond any competitors again when they can not perform it seems they are not worthy to play in any competitive match. According to the position it is still difficult to speculate about the status of today's match. South Africa trying to play defensively after the fall of two wickets. They need big partnerships at this point.
717  Economy / Speculation / Re: What are we expecting between now and Bitcoin halving? on: December 21, 2023, 02:14:39 PM
Up until now I have just been buying throughout the bear market and not sold anything , my portfolio is currently 26% in profit which I am happy with but wondering if I should keep holding till past the bull run or take some profits now.
Next year halving will happen but it is not exactly when the Bitcoin price will be bullish. It may also be that Bitcoin starts to become bullish after the halving event ends or may take more time. But it is certain that the market will go back to a bullish movement. If you are holding Bitcoin then I would say definitely hold it because investing in Bitcoin will definitely give you good returns in due course but if you are holding any cryptocurrency other than Bitcoin then there will be fear. Altcoins can take you from profit to loss at any time. So do market analysis and take appropriate decision. If you invest in Bitcoin, you will definitely have the right way which will be supported by all.

In the fourth T20 match of West Indies vs England, the England team turned around brilliantly. The England team kept the dream of winning the series alive by defeating the West Indies by 75 runs. Unable to win the ODI series, the England team turned around very well in the T20 series. There is one more match left in West Indies vs England T20 series, if the England team can perform well then they will confirm the series very easily. England's opening pair batted brilliantly and built a partnership of around 150 runs. Congratulations to England team for a great win.
After playing an excellent third match. England again surprised us. I was thinking that is this the ODI match but it is not. 267 runs is big score.
Phil Salt again surprised everyone with scoring 119 runs on 57 balls. He hit 10 sixes and 7 fours.
In my point of view that was a do and die match. So West Indies was trying and made 192 runs.
That was an excellent winning by England. Now the series is equal with 2-2 and now only one match is left which will show that who will win the series. Both will try to win the match. By the way England have the legend Phil Salt. Who always made the match salty and interesting.  Grin
In T20 cricket, if such a big score is collected, there is certain defeat. This is not a franchise league where match situations can change easily. In international cricket, the chances of chasing such a big score and winning percentages are very low. It was beyond anyone's imagination that Philip Salt would consistently do so well. Having scored centuries in two consecutive matches, he is introducing himself differently to the fans. As both the teams have won two matches each, everyone will be more interested in the last match. But I think those who will win the toss and take the fielding decision in the last match will have more chances of winning the match.

Some times gambler make good prediction about gambling but he doesn't have enough money. Gambling wins and losses are very common. I have been gambling for a long time and still do. I often follow different schedules of gambling. Sometimes I find it very easy to predict the winning of certain games. But at that time in many cases there is not enough money. And that time is the most difficult time for a gambler. Because i feels that winning the game is certain and i can get more money from it. I don't bet money that will change my life but sometimes that chance comes to me. But there is nothing to do because the risk is high that is not possible for me. Would you dare to bet especially if you get 50 times more against any betting odds? Of course there is a high chance of losing if you bet.
