781  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Which one is important? Knowledge or Experience? Or both in Bitcoin Learning! on: April 29, 2023, 11:48:22 PM
Knowledge and experience are equally important. With the knowledge you'll be able to acquire experience, but to be knowledgeable through experience it takes little more time. Based on this knowledge gets little priority against the experience. This is on the common aspect and it suits everywhere.

When it comes to bitcoin learning, rather than the knowledge and the experience it is the self realisation on the need for an innovation. If your mind is ready to accept it, then only it is possible to enjoy the goodness and turn to be more knowledged one. We should experiment the knowledge we've got, only then we'll be able to understand how good is the experience.

Same as we have got Swiss banks these mixing services help in having our holdings unknown. With the KYC requirement it is possible to have the transactions being tracked and know the end users. For this purpose there existed the mixing service for some cost. Whether you need this to be used or not is upto the person who wants complete privacy.

When it comes to gambling, bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies gives the ease of gambling and the same lets them use it much against the fiat. Some believe the purpose of bitcoin is for gambling. Such thoughts needs to change, only then the real purpose for which bitcoin is being developed will be understood.

The host Sri Lanka defeated Ireland by an innings and 280 runs on the third day of the first Test of the series. Ireland turned around in the second test at the end of the first day of the match, the Irish collected 319 runs for 4 wickets none managed to score three figures. Irish captain Andrew Balberney missed the century by just 5 runs. Besides, there are two more fifties in Ireland's innings. But regarding the series against Ireland, the Lankan captain Dimuth Karunaratne said, although an inexperienced team, Ireland is gradually improving.
We ourselves can see the improvement in the Ireland team's performance. There is big difference between the first and the second match. In the first test match Ireland wasn't able to reach 200+ runs. In the second test match Ireland played much better, based on its first innings performance it looked like a draw match. Fortunately Ireland wasn't able to perform well as the first innings. Only few matches played and Ireland trying to draw the match against an established Sri Lankan test team is a big improvement. These teams needs to be scheduled for more test matches that could help them improve.

Okay ladies

Irish's lower order is about to open for business and surely Lankan's tail is up for some fun. Spinners doing their usual stuff and they need to just go through Harry Tector, won't be a tough job for SL if Tector exists the crease.

Sri Lanka is going to win with ease, with out without Tector. Batsmen at no.9 to no.11 are genuine tailenders, and I don't think that Tector can do much. If he gets to a 50, then it will be good for him. But overall, it was quite poor performance from the Irish batsmen, after the decent display in first innings. And now Graham Hume is also gone off the bowling from Ramesh Mendis, and just two wickets stands between a Lankan win. Plenty of overs remain for today's play. Lankan bowlers have 54 overs in their hand to bowl out the last two Irish batsmen. 
Finally Tector have reached his 50 runs. What an inconsistent performance from the Irish team. Atleast the team should've scored atleast half the score of the first innings. Now the team will try to avoid innings loss. It is Mendis who have outperformed the Irish team with his bowling. The second session of the day have just begun so Sri Lanka have got plenty of time. Even if bad light and weather disturb the match, the match is still with Sri Lanka. Really nice play from Sri Lanka declaring at 700+ runs, if not the same could've favoured Ireland.

Yesterday match Rajisthan Royal was in good touch with bat. Jaiswal strike rate make able RR to score 200+. Middle orders did not contributed well but dhurav and Patel two hundred plus strike was bonus points for RR. CSK bowlers failed to restrict RR batsmen below 170 which is considered chaseable at this ground for second team.

RR spinners did well job. Both Ashwin and Zampa succeed to take wickets which did not allow CSK batsmen to settle down for a big chase and at last CSK lost with 31 runs behind the target despite wickets in hand.

Although CSK lost this match but I think their team is considering best and they can won this IPL.

As a result of the absence of Deepak Chahar, the Chennai Super Kings bowling attack is very inexperienced. They have youngsters like Akash Singh and Tushar Deshpande opening the bowling, with Matheesha Pathirana as the first-change bowler. The spin department is slightly more experienced with Ravindra Jadeja, Moeen Ali and Maheesh Theekshana. It was pace bowlers who leaked the runs yesterday. 10 overs of pace cost the CSK 122 runs, while 10 overs of spin saw only 78 runs. If Dwaine Pretorius is still with CSK, it will be a good option to include him in the playing XI.
The absence of Deepak Chahar is a big blow for CSK, but with the available players CSK team have made good progress in the points table. It have turned to be normal to see the 180+ score in T20 franchise cricket league. Whether it is the best bowling line-up or the inexperienced ones. In yesterday's match the loss of CSK is due to the disappointing performance from the batters as well as the fielding mistakes which creates difference in target. The difference might be small, but at pressure situations that few runs will be the turn.

Al-Ittehad is at the top of the points table in Round 24 in the Saudi Professional League. Currently they are in first position and ahead in terms of points with a total of 59 points. Al-Nasser are in the second position and although they have performed very well, they have not been able to overtake Al Ittehad. However, Al Sabab were in good form in the last match even though they stayed at the top of the points table with 50 points in third place. Al-Ittehad vs Al-Shabab In this game, Al-Shabab had plenty of chances to win but attacked and failed to score any goals. Al-Sabab had a huge chance after Al-Ittehad's player was sent off after receiving a red card but failed to capitalize on that opportunity in the end.
Al-Ittihad is at the first position. The difference in point between the first and second position is 6 points whereas the difference in points between the second, third and fourth position were very close. There is more chances of position switching between the 2nd 3rd and 4th position. Al-Nassr was expected much to reach the first position based on the presence of Ronaldo, but things didn't worked. On the other side other teams are progressing well.

Really hoping Ireland comeback stronger on their last day and win this test against Sirlanka.  
Declaring innings at 202 lead is really courageous act by sirlanka either they are very confident or they want Ireland to win this test .
ROFLMAO. How do you believe that Ireland is going to win this test match against Sri Lanka? At this point, they are trailing by 158 runs, with 8 wickets in hand. Andy Balbirnie and Harry Tector are at the crease now, and at no point they looked comfortable against the spin of Prabath Jayasuriya and Ramesh Mendis. It is either going to be a win for Sri Lanka, or a draw. 90 overs remain for today and it will be a tough task for the Irish batsmen to survive, especially if there is no rain interruption. Even experienced batsmen will find it tough to confront the Lankan spinners on day 5 at the Galle International Stadium. And the Irish batsmen have hardly any international experience.

Ireland is the most likely to lose. Ireland's team lost 4 wickets to collect only 78 runs. While Balbirnie is not out at the same time, he is now sidelined due to injury. Now Ireland is trailing by another 125 runs. If Harry Tector at the crease is not able to play well then the Ireland team is definitely going to lose today. Just got the first session underway. Surviving at the crease for two more sessions will not be easy for Ireland's batsmen.
Even in the first innings of Ireland McCollum and Moor didn't scored well. Once after them slowly others started to stand wicket and good score came. In the first innings Stirling scored a century and Tucker scored 80 runs. This innings their contribution is just 1 and 13 runs. Looks like a critical situation for Ireland. Even the batting pitch used to turn and support bowling at the last day of the match. If Campher and Tector withstand wicket then there is possible chance for draw, if not the match is gonna favour Sri Lanka as they need another 6 wickets to win the match.

Same! As far as Thala is hitting some maximum and playing 10-15 balls, it's all blockbuster. I won't mind even if they lose the match.  Grin

I am the biggest fan of two Indian cricketers, the first one is Sachin Tendulkar and the next is MSD. These two guys have changed the face of Indian cricket. I am praying every time whenever CSK plays that MSD comes up in the batting order till now it has not happened. I hope he does it today and we can again see him delivering what he was known for in his international career. 
Even in yesterday's match Dhoni disappointed the audience crowd. Another thing in very rare occasions Dhoni used to loss his cool action. In yesterday's match as the Rajasthan Royals keeps scoring without loss of wickets, and the fielders were making mistakes Dhoni lost staying cool. It looked like he stared few players making mistakes while fielding. Once again captain cool have lost the match against RR.

These two have different reasons why they are created and their nature is different.  I do not think that these two are comparable because these two entities is not the same.  Bitcoin as stated is a currency, you cannot compare a currency against a service.  It is like comparing a fiat currency and a bank which is obviously different in nature.  It would be worth discussing if you compare decentralized exchange and centralized exchange or a decentralized payment system service DeFi against PayPal. 
Agreed and PayPal can be compared against a centralized exchange or against the banks. PayPal is a service provider whereas bitcoin is the source that is being used for the service. There is a big difference, and when it comes to bitcoin it have got its market. PayPal as a company have years of history and working with more than 30k employees which is a big thing. Only statement I find relating between the two, founder of PayPal Peter Thiel once said if he had known about bitcoin before initiating PayPal he might've used the technology for PayPal services. This shows how good is bitcoin for the service he have been doing for years.

Pakistan had good opening and the players followed the same which helped them with the easy win. Just Masood and Agha weren't able to contribute to the score. 289 looks small after watching good number of T20 matches. In reality the format differs and so is the performance. New Zealand batting too is good, but they weren't able to bowl well, some quick wickets is necessary to built pressure upon the players. Anyhow New Zealand have got more four matches to play and win the series.

Surely this will have threat upon the person or the organisation. The goodness revolves around the world just because the identity isn't known. If the identity is known governments might've taken control over the network through some means. If the network innovator is identified, once after him the power could automatically go into the hands of his heir. So, the control continues and the decentralised functioning completely gets disturbed. Maybe if the person or the organization have got revealed, maybe the bitcoin might've not succeeded. Rather than thinking about the person or organisation impact it is good to spread the good about bitcoin.

RCB are losing their way recently. They aren't able to win without a match-winning innings from Kohli or Faf or Maxwell which goes to show how bad the other batsmen are performing in their team.

KKR are inconsistent as usual. Roy is the primary reason why they won. Iyer's catch to dismiss Kohli was great too.
If one of the player in the downline performs RCB could easily win matches. Among the four matches lost out of eight matches played three matches were close encounters. Against Chennai the match was almost over with the top order performance. Fortunately wickets fell and the rest wasn't able to win the game. Same is what happened with yesterday's match against KKR. Against LSG the match ended in the last ball chasing 212 runs. As said combined performance is required for now, if not this season to gonna be same as other season for RCB.

  • Before knowing much about the sports go with the low odds suggested by the gambling platform
  • Initially spend only on important matches which were much discussed and the winners predicted by experts
  • Now with the learning you've got, experiment on regular matches played by unpopular players
  • Never pay for any telegram channel that gives you support on picking the right odds to win

Lankans are just making a mockery of Irish spinners, virtually no respect whatsoever.
The way Lankans are handling opposition bowlers, I believe they could take a lead before the day ends. They are going with 4.75 runs per over and we still have 44 overs, hope there is no rain drama.
Sri Lanka would easily take a lead today if the game wasn't interrupted by rain. A session was lost today for the bad light and rain. Bad light had also created an impact in the match on day 2. Now we shouldn't expect anything else than a draw from this batting friendly pitch condition. Sri Lanka still has a little chance to win the match. They have to finish day 4 with a good lead, then they need to allow Ireland to play their second innings on the final day. But there is pretty high chance of rain in the next two days.
The pitch is completely batting favourite. I thought Ireland have played well, looking the performance from Sri Lanka what Ireland did is nothing. As said if the session haven't got disturbed Sri Lanka would've come closer making 400+ runs. Somehow it looks like Sri Lanka will try to win the match giving a good lead tomorrow. Even without the interruption of rain the match is more likely to end in draw. Rather than a serious match, it looks like a friendly practice match looking the batting and the scoring.

I was going through the IPL 2023 points table and found CSK is the number one team for now.



This led me to think about How CSK is winning matches? They have bowlers who have zero/least exposure to International cricket. I went ahead and check the stats of Deshpande, Akash & Pathirana.

NAMEIT20 MATCHIPL MATCHWICKETSAGE
Pathirana15620
Deshpande0141627
Akash05520

While every other team had to bid for bowlers. MSD is busy creating new bowlers.

This was a big talk, none of the bowlers were experienced. Another thing Dhoni used to take decisions that used to surprise the experienced ones, later come to understand what is his plan. The headline after the previous match win of CSK, Dhoni have created two bowlers for the Sri Lanka team.

Pathirana mentioned in his interview, how good Dhoni kept him motivating even when the match is at the extreme situation. Simple thing I found with Dhoni, he believes in a person and he makes him do as he believed. Other captains used to loss temper when things go away from reach whereas he finds the way to make it come closer.
796  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Politicians behind the development of gambling platform on: April 26, 2023, 07:10:54 PM
These days we were able to see more business people getting converted into politicians. So, these kind of activities were common. Just take a look up the president's around the world and their backing. Everyone used to have some sort of business. Distribution of money to get votes were common and this is found all around the world. However it is the people's mind to accept and the same doesn't assure he have voted for the particular person. Very few used to be loyal to the person who paid him/her, majority just watch the right person and vote.
797  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: April 24, 2023, 11:59:25 PM
Mukesh Kumar made it look so easy in the last over. Another win for DC and suddenly I feel this team might come back. DC bowled very well to defend a small target. Their batting is still not up the mark but better than earlier. Another humiliating defeat by SRH, it seems this team depends fully on the batting performance of Harry Brooks.
Everyone bowled well. Mukesh in particular bowled the final over extremely well. Washington Sundar was on the crease and expected to go for big shots. Mukesh managed to bowl well and took the match for Delhi Capitals. In the last over 13 runs required and SRH were able to score just 5 runs. Anyhow a match that adds to the list of low score defending.

It is upto the user, because once after the success of stake it is possible to see each and every platform having similarities with stake in terms of games, apperance or with the support team. Almost everyone are happy with the service of stake, for users who wants an alternate it is their responsibility to find the obe matches well.
799  Economy / Economics / Re: Automating your savings will help you save more on: April 24, 2023, 11:44:17 PM
It doesn't seem specific enough to think that every human being is a wasteful spender, because for me it's just about a person's character to use something excessively for what he needs so that it must be called wasteful. But if you do research on this matter on several people with a very modest level of living, you will definitely find differences between some of these people so it won't be specific if everything is to be considered wasteful because basically there are humans who are able to save money for themselves.

Spending money should be reasonable. If you spend your whole life saving every penny, what is the point of saving money? Children who inherit money are likely to squander it quickly. In this case, money is evil. Therefore, a person should not be a spender or a miser. One should choose a reasonable middle ground.
In most of the third world country it is possible to see middle class population in majority. If you go through the common middle class family it is possible to see them working throughout their lives and once after 60 takes care of the grand children. Majority of the spending will be used for their children and finally if they look back they have enjoyed nothing. Some plan well to enjoy life after 60, but health conditions doesn't support and starts moving between hospital and home.
800  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is bitcoin price control by human agents or electronic technology? on: April 24, 2023, 11:28:41 PM
The process is done by the electronic system, but the market is made up of the human beings. Just the system running and none to use it, then it doesn't hold any value. When the demand keeps rising, so will be the increase/decrease in the price. Apart, it is known that the users holding the major volume have got control over the market to some extent. This way the market is with the human beings whereas the technology things were with the electronic system. The electronic technology part gets importance when the number increases tthe technology need to be effective to withstand and here the technology does it. So, combined move seems to be fair for the effective growth.
