Regulators certainly seem to agree with your subject line. I’m a bit surprised to see regulation altering between Bitcoin and the rest of the cryptocurrencies. It’s as if Bitcoin is being given a pass while the others are being subjected to legal scrutiny.  Regardless of the reason, Bitcoin appears to be the King.
Bitcoin and altcoins have different designs by their protocols and technical designs that help Bitcoin to be totally different than altcoins and regulations on Bitcoin and altcoins would be very different too.

Since 2009 and years later with abundant altcoins have ever been created, Bitcoin appears to be the King and irreplaceable.

But for the altcoins, they label altcoins as securities simply because they have some access to it, for example, even if an altcoin blockchain is decentralized, they still have access to that altcoin through the creator, whom they can easily go after if they want, i think this is why they seem to have abandoned bitcoin to face altcoins.
It seems they use a criterion, decentralized or centralized, for Bitcoin and altcoins to apply their regulations against those cryptocurrencies.

Altcoins are centralized and are very first sensitive, most vulnerable cryptocurrencies to be regulated by governments as they know their regulations on altcoins will have bigger chance to succeed than on Bitcoin.

Let's say that the BTC marketcap is approximately x20 smaller than what BR manages, but maybe money is not the most important thing in that story, but the influence BR has and the reputation it enjoys in the highest circles of politics, and not only those in the US. However, I ask myself how it is that if the success of their request is viewed with a large dose of optimism, the market does not react in the way it should react, that is, the price has been static for months and behaves as in the case of waiting for past halvings.
Bitcoin needs better adoption that will go along with bigger institutional investors and bigger communities together with stricter regulations from governments. Because when governments see something like bigger threats from Bitcoin, they will do more regulations to constrain it. Especially when they launch their CBDCs which are centralized and will not be supported by Bitcoin communities.

BlackRock is only one of institutional investors, they are not the first and will not be the last. I don neither overestimate nor underestimate effects from BlackRock.

Carlo Ancelotti looks to have tried Jude Bellingham to be a fake 9 rather than a second striker. Jude Bellingham was more dangerous in the opponent's penalty area, for the midfielders of the CVT trio (Camavinga, Valverde, Tchouameni) in that match it was very convincing and cool. Tchouameni keeps balance, Valverde destroys opponents, Camavinga with his typical ups and downs with high cruising range. Special credit to Fran Garcia, this tiny player is very dangerous.
Camavinga, Valverde and Tchouameni are players who will replace Kroos, Modric and Casemiro for Real Madrid in coming years if they continue to grow up well. Camavinga is like Modric and Tchouameni is like Casemiro while Valverde is like Kroos. Those players are in a long term plan of Real Madrid to gradually replace their legendary midfielders.

Jude scored more goals for Dortmund in the last season than earlier years but he still is far from a good fake 9 but such trial will help Jude improving his skills as well as visions on field. Honestly I did not know about Fran Garcia but let's hope he will grow up well in a new season.

Bull run is very hot in the air and you will feel it by many news, abundant new potential projects with promising game-changing technology and use cases, market volume and market cap will increase a lot by new cash flow pours in the market by new participants.

However, bull run does not bring profit and happiness to everyone as money flows and changes from one person to another.
In bull run, you can lose your money by investing in shitcoins that have rug pulls later or by trading with Leverage and Futures.

In a bull run, focus on Bitcoin as it starts with Bitcoin. If possible, avoid shitcoins especially new coins launched by taking advantage of a new bull run, new trends in technology and use cases.

Despite the fact that it wasn't less than 24 hours after Harry Kane was signed to Bayern Munich, I am of the opinion that Thomas Tuchel should've started him in the super cup match against Leipzig since the England international was fit for the game.
Had Bayern Munich won the game, Harry Kane would've win his first trophy as a player and that would've been in his first match as a Bayern player but unfortunately for them, they were outclassed by Leipzig. It's just the first match of the season for Bayern and I think they will bounce back from the defeat and deliver a great season
Kane only joned Bayern recent hours and it is unrealistic to use a player who has yet trained with a team. In addition, Bayern Munich already have a strong squad so they don't need to take risk to use Kane too soon.

If they use Kane immediately and the player has poor performance, it will cause bigger pressure on him and in a long run, it will potentially result in more negative impacts on Harry Kane as well as Bayern Munich. After a big transfer, pressure is huge and Bayern Munich know about that. They need Harry Kane with his best performance as he can in a long season and to have it, they must avoid unnecessary pressure on Harry Kane.

All of my appreciations for ronaldo. The club was playing with 9 players and ronaldo has become a savior and hero at the same time for al nassr. That's why spending a lot of money to get him is always worthed. What a great performance from him. He was helping the club to win Arab club champion league. So many fans are seeing him as a hero. He did a great job by helping the club to win the first trophy this season. CR7 was a real GOAT.
He is an old player but can play better than many younger players. It is unfair and nonunderstandable to read comments and critics against Cristiano Ronaldo by asking him play as same as 5 or 10 years ago. He is only a human and has to be affected by ageing so even he can prolong his career till 38 years old and manage to score many goals are great success and many young players don't achieve.

Quote
So many critics were coming to him due to the his age is not young anymore but ronaldo has proven if he is still worth to be considered as one of greatest player in the world even in his age now.
Players at Cristiano Ronaldo generation already retired or became coaches like Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Rooney. We should not ask more better performances from Cristiano. It is time to enjoy his very last seasons in his career as it will take many years before such an outstanding player appears.

To me it seems that Real Madrid can't build the squad they want. If they could, they would have done that already. Yes they do have financial power and influence and probably the best reputation as an excellent club in the world, but there are hurdles for them as well. They are competing with other top clubs and other rich clubs. If what you said was true, wouldn't Mbappe be already there?
Mbappe just decided to stay in PSG last summer because he was interested in lucrative salary offer from PSG. Real Madrid are a rich club and is a favorite destination of many star players but they are smart and use their money wisely. They did not join the crazy race with PSG because they know such very high salary will cause many problems in their club after Mbappe transfer to Bernabeu.

Quote
Or they could have tried to sign Osimhen or Kane, but Kane is now in Munich and Osimhen wants to stay in Napoli. They also didn't get Haaland. That would have solved their current problem already. I think also for Real Madrid times have changed and they are not the one and only option anymore.
Real Madrid did not have interest in Kane, Haaland as well as Osimhen. It seems they are very sure that they will get Mbappe in the next summer so they decided to skip both Kane and Osimhen. Joselu is their temporary solution in a meantime of waiting Mbappe.
789  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Need help with Bittrex KYC on: August 12, 2023, 03:30:41 AM
Bittrex required KYC since years ago so if you have an account on Bittrex, you are already KYCed.

Now they want you to re-submit KYC to approve your withdrawal before their exchange completely shuts down. You only can use your own documents, re-KYC by yourself and if you use documents of other people, that are different than documents for original KYC, your account will violate the Bittrex KYC and they will terminate your account. Surely you won't be able to withdraw money after that.

Avoid doing KYC at night with low quality of light. Doing KYC with good natural light will help you to easily get KYC approval.

I don't know what's really on Mbappe's mind. with Mbappe's statement that he will stay at PSG until his contract expires, of course, it is a loss for PSG.
In Mbappe's minds, his biggest concerns are money and titles with two most wanted titles are Champions League and Ballon d'Or. He already won World Cup with France in 2018 tournament so it is not his most wanted title now. He has never won any Champions League and no Ballon d'Or so far in his career.

Quote
PSG actually needs him on the front lines for this season. but the punishment they gave to Mbappe seems to require PSG to find a new striker to compete in the Champions League. In Ligue 1 maybe PSG will have no trouble even without Mbappe. but with the Champions League, PSG must have a tough squad.
PSG actually needs Mbappe but only if he wants to stay and play for them with full of concentration and best contributions. If he only plays for them because he has to do so in the meantime for a transfer to Real Madrid, he will not contribute his best and reserve his body as most healthiest as possible for his new club and a better contract with them.

In addition, Mbappe is not a striker, he has never been a striker. That position is not where Mbappe can play and show his best so that position is only a temporary one for Mbappe if his club needs him.

I hope to see Kane shining for Bayern Munich because they spent too much for him and I guess instead of hiring this player for Tottenham for this house amount of money they good have other options. Being a good forward for Bayter n Munich like Robart Lewandoski is not something easy to do and we don't expect from Harry Kane to have the same performance but still, I hope to see a failure like Sadio Mane when he left Liverpool with a good situation.
Two clubs in the transfer deal already agreed with each other about the transfer price, the only barrier to prevent the transfer is the player Harry Kane. Will he decide to move to Bayern Munich or stay in Tottenham? After some requests made by himself to leave, now the chance is clearly and he must take it to move. I see it will be really weird if Harry Kane suddenly announces that he will stay because he loves Tottenham. It won't happen in my thinking.

Bayern Munich will have a lot of attacking players, and under these conditions, it will provide good opportunities for Bayern Munich because the team's strength will increase and the potential for victory is very high. With so many new players bought by Bayern Munich, hopefully they can give good results in the Bundesliga next season, which will start soon.
Bayern Munich have many good attacking players who can support Harry Kane very well. Sane, Musiala, Gnarby will provide many good passes to Harry Kane and with his ability to convert chances to goals, he will have many goals with Bayern Munich.

The club is the strongest in Bundesliga so surely Kane will win Bundesliga with them, of course not in all seasons but he will have Bundesliga title with Bayern. In Champions League, Bayern Munich always belongs to list of best candidates and Kane will at least have more appearances in Champions League with Bayern together with better opportunity to win it.

It seems that Real Madrid is not serious about bringing in Vlahovic in this transfer window because so far no official offer has been made by Real Madrid to Juventus to recruit Vlahovic. Indeed, Vlahovic was linked with Chelsea, but Chelsea finally resigned after Pochettino was not too interested in him.
Pochettino succeeded in Totteham with Harry Kane who has more skills than a classic striker. Vlahovic isn't a striker like Kane and he has some good skills including free kick but he can not play as a play maker like Harry Kane.

I am not sure what Pochettino has worked with Chelsea for transfer strategy in this summer but if he uses similar management and favorite on strikers like Harry Kane, I understand why Chelsea no longer have interest in Vlahovic.

Quote
This season Vlahovic should be able to make an extraordinary contribution to Juventus because if he fails to make a change in his performance at the start of this season it is likely that his main place in the Juventus squad will be easily shifted by other players. In addition, it is believed that Allegri will continue to sell Vlahovic in this transfer window and it is likely that Juventus are still waiting for offers to come from other teams to recruit Vlahovic.
Vlahovic is more like Lewandowski as they are classic striker, classic number 9. I see Vlahovic is better than Lewandowski in free kick and he has good free kick skills like Ibrahimovic.

Vlahovic has many seasons in Serie A and if he moves to either La Liga or Premier League, he will have to adapt to a new league which surely has some challenges for him.  With not too good finance and competitiveness in Serie A, Vlahovic might move to bigger clubs and bigger leagues in future.

I am in crypto for a few years and i have good knowledge of the crypto markets and their behavior. For the past few years, I am mostly invested in some top crypto project and held it till I get decent profits. You can say i am a holder.
I am very surprising if you only got profit from holding altcoins so far and did not get any loss with them.

Not all altcoins even they are top altcoins will help you gaining profit by holding. Many top altcoins lost their prices from all time highs and never recovered to their all time highs, not yet mention that they failed to make new all time highs. More serious, they die with time so holding altcoins can cause losses, serious losses, not only profit. By that I mean you are very good investor if you only got profit from altcoins.

Now i want to try something different. I want to try day trading methods to generate a daily income from the spot market.

Is that even possible to earn 50$-100$ every day with spot trading? If yes then what methods you are using and how do you manage your risk?
Trading is not a game for all and most of traders have losses from trading. Do you really think you can belong to minority of traders and will be able to get profit from trading?

$50 or $100 profit from spot trading is possible but it depends on your trading capital. If you have a trading capital like $50,000, it is an easy target. If your trading capital is only $100 or $500, it is a very impossible target.

Arabs have a serious problem, they don't like to hear words like No. for them, everyone has a price, everyone is for sale, they just need to say the price and they are satisfied.
They have abundant money and they can do whatever they want if there is no restrictions from FIFA, UEFA on transfer market as well as transfer windows between leagues in Europe and Middle East. If, for example, FIFA want to make restrictions on leagues in Middle East, they will have to do the same with leagues from other geographical areas like MLS in the USA. It looks to be very serious regulation which will not be approved to enforce in near future.

Meanwhile, we will continue to see the chaos originated from Saudi Arabia and maybe some leagues in Middle East.

Quote
but mbappe is a young, rich and popular player. he wants to conquer things that ronaldo, messi already conquered and he knows very well that being at psg he won't be able to have anything, that's why leaving psg is the best decision he needs to make. Ligue 1 is not very competitive, in my opinion I don't see it as a competitive league, PSG doesn't have a good squad and isn't strong enough to win the European Champions League
Mbappe is a very interesting case by his current contract with PSG and likely his pre-deal with Real Madrid. I see no harm on Mbappe if he accepts an offer from Saudi and move to the league in just one season as a transitional time before moving to La Liga and Real Madrid.

Quote
by not putting mbappe to play, psg will also be losing a lot, first of all, psg will be paying salary to mbappe, that is, psg will pay salary every month to a guy who will not be playing and will be sitting watching the team lose games and win nothing; The second is that I've even said before, and that without Mbappe in attack, PSG will lose in many games and with that they will risk losing Ligue 1 and the Champions League. , soon they would also lose the money, because in each phase that a team manages to pass in the European champions league the team earns more money, this will be a loss for psg and not for mbappe
If PSG go serious to treat Mbappe with internal punishments, it will be not harmful but good for them in the long run. First, it will be their serious response against the stubborn and selfish player. Second, it will help them to make a record in their management against star players and in future, they will be able to refer to this case as a red warning for any star players who want to repeat what Mbappe has been doing.

I don't even think napoli gonna let osimhen leaves although al hilal gonna send 200m bid for osimhen. Napoli was a free debt club. It seems like that money is not the main achievement by napoli. Al hilal needs to find another target.
If Al Hilal actually make that bid, Napoli will not keep Osimhen as they will take advantage of it to sell the player and get profit. They bought the season ago with about $70M transfer from Lille so selling him now at $200M is a very good deal for them.  Osimhen would not have a more lucrative price than Mbappe who got an offer about $300M from Saudi weeks ago.

Quote
This club has been failed to recruit the popular european player. Al hilal has sent bid for messi, mbappe and then osimhen but these efforts are already wasted as none of those players are interested in joining al hilal.
Al Hilal see challenge from Al Nassr and they know that if they won't improve their squad, they will be beaten by Al Nassr in a new season. However, they are not the only club in Saudi Arabia are hunting star players from Europe so the competitiveness on transfer market is high.

Quote
I believe there will be a great player to join in al hilal very soon. Osimhen or even kvarat already got so many attentions from the various teams but napoli is still trying so hard to keep both of players. will al hilal make a higher offer than it?
Kravatskhelia receives less interests from big clubs and from Saudi than Osimhen because he only had one good seasons in Serie A. Risk of failure with Kravatskhelia is bigger than with Osimhen who already had some good seasons in Ligue 1 and Serie A.

Jordan Henderson, Fermino and Fabinho are former Liverpool retainers who have moved to the Saudi Pro League this summer, but currently Mohamed Salah, who is being courted to move to Al Ittihad, has reportedly refused to follow in the footsteps of his three colleagues. Salah is still under contract until June 2025 with Liverpool, and I think Salah will commit to staying until the end of his contract at Anfield.
I don't remember breaking price of Mohamed Salah contract with Liverpool. Saudi Professional League clubs don't have too many financial problems to satisfy financial demands from Liverpool or Mohamed Salah. They are simply too rich and money is not their problems whatsoever.

Quote
Jurgen Klopp has reacted to the dominance of clubs from the SPL in the transfer market this summer, they have different transfer times than leagues in European countries. Klopp feels this is unfair and needs to be reviewed regarding the transfer window deadline.
Klopp knows that he can not prohibit clubs from SPL to buy players in Liverpool, Premier League or Europe. The player transfer market is a free one and clubs from SPL have similar rights as all clubs to bid and buy star players from Europe.

Is it fair to prohibit SPL clubs on the player market because he can spend too big money?

We must see how big clubs in Europe can buy players from Asia and how Asian clubs think about European clubs as well as how they feel need to prohibit European clubs to touch Asian players.

“I think the SEC, if it’s going to approve a Bitcoin ETF, will approve more than one at once,” said Cathie Wood, CEO of ARK Investment Management, to Bloomberg on Monday. Wood’s own Ark21 Shares ETF is technically first in line for potential approval on August 13, though most analysts expect the SEC to postpone this approval date.[/i]
SEC did not approve any Bitcoin Spot ETF because they did not want to do it or they had to reject approvals with pressure from Democrat party and White House.

I agree with Cathie Wood that when SEC approves a first Bitcoin Spot ETF, it will open a new gate, put a case as reference to approve more Bitcoin Spot ETF applications later. The first is always the most expected and most hardest application to be approved. Later applications and approvals after the first successful application will be more easily. Like a first Bitcoin exchange, a first Bitcoin Futures ETF ... already helped Bitcoin market and adoption a lot.

There is no denying the excitement around Napoli new coach but Spalletti outstanding results from the previous campaign raise some concerns. The pressure on Rudi Garcia is obvious but if Napoli is able to maintain their great play praise will undoubtedly come.
Napoli and their President will have to learn a hard lesson that they will not be able to win Scudetto too often. They are not such a club in Italy like Juventus, AC Milan or Inter Milan. They don't have habit to create such strong domination in the league and they are more similar to AS Roma, Lazio that can sparsely win Scudetto after a few or many years.

Quote
Prediction is a hard business as evidenced by the unexpected turns brought on by losing important player like Koulibally and Dries Merten in the past. Even though the possibility of an even better coach exists it is still a remote possibility. For Napoli devoted supporters sustained success especially in elite tournaments like the UCL spells joy. A young but capable alternative for defensive reinforcement is added to Napoli roster with the signing of talented defender Natan Bernardo de Souza.
They suddenly succeeded after selling Koulibaly, Mertens and Insigne but no guarantee that they can repeat that success after selling Kim Min-Jae and maybe Osimhen, Kravatskhelia too.

Such surprising successful season like the past one does not easily happen and Napoli must be realistic about their chance to protect their Scudetto. Especially if they sell either Osimhen or Kravatskhelia or both in rest of this summer transfer.

It has long been obvious that Tottenham is not prepared to let Harry Kane leave. How come I said that? Because they require a lot of money and a lot of clubs are looking for Harry Kane, they shouldn't give him to another club just yet. They don't want him to leave, and you can see that Bayern Munich are still looking for him, which is what motivates them to want such a large sum of money. But even if Harry Kane wants to leave Tottenham, I think his contract with them hasn't yet expired, therefore I think Harry Kane will continue to stay with them till it expires.
Harry Kane is too important for Tottenham and he is their home-grown player. Levy firstly does not want to lose Kane and secondly he does not intend to spend big money to buy players as replacements for Harry Kane.

It's not easy for Tottenham to find a good player and replace Harry Kane successfully and it together with a habit to sell star players at lucrative transfer prices, Levy likely builds a solid cage to keep Kane in the club.

Quote
To strengthen the team and elevate the clubs so they can win trophies, Tottenham has resisted recruiting more new players to join Harry Kane. I think Harry Kane wants to leave there because of the trophies they have yet to win.
Strengthen the team and win titles, it is Levy's promise to Harry Kane when he convinced the player to expand the contract but after a few seasons, we already saw that it has yet been touched by Tottenham.

Harry Kane has enough loyalty and love for the club but his career is counting down and he is no longer treated respectfully by Levy with last two times his contract is coming to expire.
