761  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: June 18, 2023, 03:40:33 AM
It's funny:

Totti’s son could leave Roma this summer



Quote
The elder Totti famously spent the entirety of his 24-year playing career with the Giallorossi from 1993 to 2017, becoming a legendary figure in the Italian capital. He made 785 appearances for the club before his retirement, meaning it came as no surprise when his son joined Roma’s youth system.

The 17-year-old Totti has developed in Roma’s youth teams but has failed to find consistent minutes for the Under-18 side, playing just 15 minutes across two appearances for the team this season.

La Gazzetta dello Sport via GOAL Italia suggests that Totti could leave Roma’s youth system to join Frosinone, who are keen to welcome the teenager to their club.

Talks have already been opened with Totti’s entourage and his father Francesco to discuss the project at the club and his chances with the Primavera squad.


The 17-year-old’s contract expires with Roma in 2025, so negotiations are ongoing to find the right formula for his departure.


Source: https://football-italia.net/tottis-son-could-leave-roma-this-summer/
In football, it is very rarely seen sons of famous players become star players like their fathers.

Jordi Cruyff failed to become a star player like his father, Johan Cruyff. Some sons of Diego Maradona, sons of David Beckham, Giovani Simeone who is a son of Diego Simeone. Many more examples and the most famous family with success of talent inheritance is Maldini family from Cesare Maldini to Paolo Maldini. However, after Paolo Maldini, the flow is broken as sons of Paolo Maldini could not become star players like him.

Cristian is only 17-year old and he has time to develop more skills but with his performance so far, he will not be able to become a legendary player like Francesco.

It is interesting that it hasn't been used yet. Anyone can create their own cryptocurrency or token, so it is always a possibility that someone might take up the idea of creating "Merit" as a cryptocurrency.

But what would be the purpose of such a cryptocurrency? If you think admins should integrate "Merit" or any other cryptocurrency into this forum, I highly doubt it is going to happen.
This forum already has its official native currency to award quality posters, Merit. The total supply of that Merit currency is infinite as each month, theymos will dump more sourced merit to merit sources and keep the supply rising more.

Merit currency has its public ledger and we can see merit transactions from senders to receivers.

The forum does not call it as a currency by in my view, it is a native currency of Bitcointalk. It is not tradable on any cryptocurrency market, exchanges but it is locally transacted in this forum, natively.

Psg want to sell Neymar, they don't want him to be in the club by next season, if Neymar does not go, he may not be happy with how he will be treated next season. The problem is that Neymar is too expensive and many clubs cannot buy him or pay his wages
PSG wanted to sell Neymar in the last couple of seasons but they signed a stupid contract with Neymar which allows him to expand his contract and stay in Paris next few years.

Neymar is a star player and he is useful for many clubs but PSG does not satisfy with Neymar performance for them because they paid huge money for Neymar transfer from Barcelona as well as his salary in many seasons.

Quote
Neymar would either have to cut his salary down or move to a club like Newcastle or to one of the Saudi clubs that has enough money to pay him. Neymar is no longer a footballer that many clubs will want, so he may not have too many options this summer.
Any club wants to buy Neymar will have to surpass two biggest challenges. His salary is too high and very few clubs in Europe are ready to pay him such salary especially with global recession after Covid-19. Another challenge for all clubs is Neymar's sensitivity to injuries which restrict his contributions for PSG a lot. With many injuries especially his ankles, he missed many matches for PSG and most of his serious injuries come after Christmas and New year holidays. It is bad for PSG because in second half of season, they need him for knock-out matches in Champions League.

With a bad injury record like this, I doubt that Newcastle United are ready to buy Neymar.

Before you can get out of a trade, it's either you complete the trade or cancel it, so just don't assume they will allow you into another trade when the one you've started is still pending or inconclusive
Exchanges must do it because they must account user trading activities, orders accurately. If they have bad accounting, their business will be exploited and they will pay very high cost for bad accounting.

They will pay expensive cost like Silk Road which was compromised by James Zhong.

In 2012, when Zhong was just 22 years old, he executed a scheme to defraud Silk Road, a notorious dark web marketplace infamous for the distribution of illegal drugs and money laundering.

By creating a string of accounts and triggering over 140 transactions in rapid succession, he tricked Silk Road’s withdrawal-processing system into releasing approximately 50,000 Bitcoin which he then transferred into a variety of separate addresses under his control.

Hopefully Newcastle can replicate the form of last season as they go into this season. I hope the Board will recognise the need to build a squad capable of competing on a European and domestic front next season.
Their progress is faster than expected because they only need one season and a half to join top four. That is a very speedy progress of a new rich club and before Newcastle United, we witnessed Chelsea and Manchester City needed a few seasons to gradually increase their positions in Premier League to top four.

Quote
They’re now in the UCL and that’s an advantage they have to attract whosoever they want. They don’t really have that depth to compete in the many competitions that would come next season, so they need to get Eddie Howe these signings to be able to compete among the other teams in all competitions. He’s shown that he’s capable and what’s left now is the support he needs in the transfer window.
Being eligible for Champions League is both advantage and challenge for Newcastle United. The advantage is with that ticket to Champions League, they will be able to convince more star players to join their club in coming months. Challenge is they will have to cope with a difficulty to diversify their power and resources for Premier League and Champions League in a new season.

If they successfully to maintain their position in top four in a new season, they will become stronger in future because each season passes, they will have more experience for playing in both Champions League and Premier League. It will also help their club to have better finance with income from Champions League.

1. I buy Bitcoin using the PC Coinbase platform.
2. It goes up and I want to get out of the trade to make a profit.
3. The trade is still open.
4. I open the trade and the only option is "Cancel."
5. I click "Cancel" and the order is canceled.
6. I don't make or lose any money.
How Do I Get Out Of The Trade Without Canceling It?
If you no longer want to trade, cancel your order, you did it.

If you have a trade (buy) and open a position to take profit but after a while, you no longer chase for profit because you need cash or feel risk in the market, you can either exit with with small profit, with a draw at price that is nearly the same as your entry price or cut loss with a bit lower price than your entry price.

Two main options, cancel your trade order and exit your position to have cash with either small profit, no profit no loss, small loss.

Florentino Perez said that Real Madrid were going to sign Mbappe but not this summer. However the coming days might still change this situation.
Big change firstly comes from Real Madrid. They did not plan to lose Benzema in the summer and were in talk with Benzema to sign a new contract. However, the super good offer from Al Itihad convinced Benzema to leave and Real Madrid respected the player to end the contract one year before its expiration with a consensus between Real Madrid and Benzema.

It changed many things in Real Madrid transfer strategy and they will have to look at Mbappe one year sooner than they thought.

Quote
Because as you said PSG board are determined about not letting him go for free. But while there is no chance to convince Mbappe after that statement of him there is only one choice left.

PSG will need to sell Mbappe as soon as possible. Otherwise they would have no chance left after the new season starts. Because he will be much closer to be available for contract offer from other teams. Honestly PSG owner is very rich so they shouldn't worry about letting him go for free.
PSG know that they should not put themselves at a similar situation like one year ago, when Mbappe became a free agent and can leave Paris without any cent for the club. If they can not prolong the contract with Mbappe in this summer, they will let him go.

But again I read rumor that the French President Macron tries to do some political pressure to keep Mbappe in PSG and Ligue 1. Will it happen again and Mbappe will stay in PSG with a new contract?

Quote
I know that they are paying a huge amount of money for Mbappe's contract now so they want a consolation amount against that. But they really need Mbappe for being competitive for the Champions League next season. I don't know if they can find a great replacement in a short time.
Many comparison between Mbappe and Haaland as new dual competitors like Messi and Ronaldo. This season, Haaland got a treble achievement with Manchester City and won his first Champions League. It will be biggest challenge for Mbappe to decide his future in PSG. He is not happy because Champions League is his dream some recent seasons but never touched it.

Electrum they dont need very long to download the full blockchain?
As our friend explained, you won't have to download and store the full Bitcoin blockchain on your device with Electrum wallet that is SPV.

Looks like you misunderstood the brother's point, Electrum is a lightweight wallet, it doesn't require downloading the whole data, So don't be afraid of the storage and hardware resources.
You can connect your Electrum wallet to servers and use it immediately. No need to wait for days, hours or few minutes to sync your wallet like Bitcoin Core.

Electrum uses Simple Payment Verification technique.
Quote
Simple Payment Verification (SPV) is a technique described in Satoshi Nakamoto’s paper. SPV allows a lightweight client to verify that a transaction is included in the Bitcoin blockchain, without downloading the entire blockchain. The SPV client only needs download the block headers, which are much smaller than the full blocks. To verify that a transaction is in a block, a SPV client requests a proof of inclusion, in the form of a Merkle branch.

SPV clients offer more security than web wallets, because they do not need to trust the servers with the information they send.

With all Blockchain Explorer the TXID is not displayed only with Blockchain.com you can do something there e.g. Add B Fee`s some said this is not possible with blockchain.com. I've also tried adding my XPUB to another wallet where you can add fees, but that doesn't work either, XPUB from Blockchain unfortunately doesn't work with most wallet programs, who can help me. I'm willing to pay for that too.
What is xPub and how do I get it?
xPub is extended Public key and you can use it to create your receiving address for receiving. You can not sign any transaction to move your coins. You only can sign transaction with a private key.

You can get Secret Private Key Recovery Phrase for your blockchain.com wallet and import it into Electrum wallet.
You can bump the fee with Electrum too.

Manchester City president can consider İlkay Gündoğan's stay in Manchester as Manchester City won this season's Champions League title under his leadership. No player would want to join another club while captaining such a consistent and successful team. As his contract runs until the 30th, he still has several days to consider leaving the club. I doubt he will be a regular at all if he joins Barcelona or Arsenal. As he is a regular player and captain of Manchester City, he must consider his position before leaving the club.
With old players like Gundogan, they will prefer to sign new long contracts like 2 or 3 years than only 1-year contract. They want to have as safest contract for their career than short one. Gundogan won many titles with Manchester City and it can be another factor for him to leave the club and find new challenge somewhere else. Being a treble winner is big achievement for Gundogan career and he has nothing to do with Manchester City. Finding a new club and playing at a new league might be more ambitious plan for Gundogan. La Liga and Barcelona are good destinations for Gundogan, a big league, a big club and a matched style for Gundogan.

Gundogan is actually the player who was recruited for the first time since Pep Guardiola's first arrival to Man city. So it can be said that Gundogan has helped this club a lot since around 2016 and is still very much needed today.
If I am right, Manchester City bought Gundogan when the player had bad time in his career with some injuries in Dortmund. Pep Guardiola must see big potential from Gundogan to buy him because it is risky to buy a midfielder with a bad injury record. His bet on Gundogan brings sweet fruit in this season but maybe they will both leave the club soon.

I usually Invest a very small amount of bitcoin to another coin because I know this time is very crucial to invest in any new coin or even in an old coin.
Any suggestion from your side which is good for long term
You have 1 BTC and you want to use that 1 BTC to buy altcoins?

It's a bad idea. Owning 1 BTC is dream for many people including me. Hold it and don't use it to buy altcoins because altcoins will make you poorer and from 1 BTC you will have like 0.5 BTC, 0.2 BTC or 0.1 BTC in future with altcoins. You will lose your bitcoin if you don't hold it but invest it to altcoins.

Manchester City beat Bayern Munich, Real Madrid and Inter Milan to win the UCL trophy. Real Madrid beat Chelsea not Manchester City.

Manchester City's victory against the three teams Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, and Inter Milan was not so easy because these three teams are very strong in the Champions League. 
From the first stage, Manchester City reached the final by winning against a tough opponent and they also defeated a tough opponent in the final. They deserved this season's Champions League trophy after defeating Real Madrid as Real Madrid were considered favorites this season.
They are big clubs Bayern Munich, Real Madrid and Inter Milan and Inter Milan are the team that brought most challenges to Manchester City. Manchester City won against Bayern Munich and Real Madrid very impressively but they did not win against Inter Milan this way.

Inter Milan with good tactics from their coach and nearly perfect performances from their players, actually did not give Haaland and Manchester City many chances in the final match. They only got one conceded goal and they created some opportunities and came very close to an equalizer or more than that. I think Inter Milan are the team brought most fearful feeling to Manchester City in this season.

I think all people is aware with that since there are so many platform suggest to use strong password so that they can get an extra layer of protection to avoid their account easily get hack by anyone. Also its really good to see that vbet admins is so active listening to any suggestion that can improve their casino and this is a good sign that they provably got a good future to became another successful casino exist in this community.
All platforms warn users to use strong passwords and many platforms don't accept passwords which are too weak like very short, only contains character or number. They force users to set up a password with mix of number, character, and special character.

As the vbetFTN team explained, they wanted users to use strong passwords and maybe their developers forgot about inconvenience of typing the strong password manually. Their developers might focus on bot accounts and Captcha but no worry, they added it to their to-do list and will deploy manual password typing for vbetFTN users soon.

There are two reasons. First, Bitcoin is a non-credit currency ten times stronger than gold.
Prove it please. Ten times stronger than gold is a too arbitrary conclusion.

Quote
So unless Bitcoin is replaced. Otherwise he must surpass gold.
Non sense. Like altcoins, they are here, survive, except dead altcoins, but lively altcoins don't surpass Bitcoin.

Quote
Second, Bitcoin is close to being the ideal non-credit currency, and it is basically impossible to have another non-credit currency beyond Bitcoin. Combine these two points and Bitcoin is bound to surpass gold
Again, I disagree with your logic.

The bullish case for Bitcoin. This article from Vijay can help you to understand Bitcoin better and believe in it more but it can help you to stop your baseless opinion like above.
