81  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Not all hacked on exchanges are real on: May 05, 2022, 09:40:25 PM
The perfect theft in crypto is claiming that a project or an exchange is hacked when its all an inside job, the reason why I think about this is I have never heard about other top exchanges helping a exchange that just got hacked to track their funds and get some back at least but if it's a sole hacker from outside they will track him or them down, why is that?.
There are instances where there was an inside job and there are instances when exchanges helped in returning the hacked funds, so it is not like none of the exchanges will help in returning the funds but there are hacks which were dubious to begin with and the funds tends to be mixed using a mixer before loosing the trail and in those instances it is really difficult to track.

A big Question mark after this Crash. There other options as well AVAX same cheap and fast Luna & FTM BSC issue is same central control or poor Quality, considered but True potential is with ETH. Lets hope that ETH network will be upgraded with TPS.
There is a spam attack in the network and who knows whether ETH supporters are doing that, for ETH to be the true potential they need to have a set date on when they are planning to upgrade their network and when people can start using with low fees, till now there is no set date on that aspect and that been the case why do you think that it is still the potential . They are making a major upgrade and one wrong move can doom them.

I am sure the English board would have discussed his mental health and would have also discussed it with doctors and then only they had given him this responsibility. If still he losses his mind during the upcoming match then he might lose his career at this time. I think they will either choose Stuart Broad or Jos Buttler as the vice captain.
I am not sure whether the England Cricket board evaluated and consulted his doctors before giving him the captaincy. The upcoming series will determine whether Ben Stokes will be able to perform well as a captain and whether he will be able to deliver his performances and if he is able to do that it is well and good. Jos Buttler could be the Vice Captain.

Bears are still in control of the market but at least it does not seem as if they are in complete control of the situation and they cannot make the price of bitcoin to crash at will, I also think that positive news have slowed down the bear market as it seems more countries are interested in integrating bitcoin to their economies, and the more adoption that we have the more resistant bitcoin will become to the selling pressure coming from the bears.
What if the whales are having a controlled market so that they would cash out when the price rallies and they would not sell off all the coins so that there is a entire market crash. We are seeing that the price is moving in a range for a while and who knows who price ranges are not manipulated, just to put in another theory  Wink Cheesy.
Third World countries integrating Bitcoin to their economies might not get the intended result like we expect because it is a more complex situation.

It's been a long break in international cricket because everyone is busy in IPL and in IPL seasons, there are no other formats and series scheduled.

Anyways, I don't think anyone (other than me) is missing ODI / Test Matches as everyone must be enjoying IPL matches. People in Pakistan have no access to watch these matches live.  Undecided
When i googled it shows that you will be able to watch the IPL through Yupp TV which is a streaming service and available in Geo Super (TBC). I am also watching the match with the help of streaming service, so if you really want to watch the match, it is possible to view them. Since you claimed that people in Pakistan has no access to watch the matches i am pointing this out as those are the official broadcast partners for the IPL this season.

Because such big inflation people very quickly lose their savings.
That is why many people prefer to invest.
Now cryptocurrency becomes more regulated and more people prefer to invest in cryptocurrency.
There is inflation looming over us but to think that a highly volatile market is the solution will not be a wise idea either. There are new investors in the platform and majority started investing when the market was rallying and if they continue to invest in the same fashion they would loose their money once the market starts to go down. I have seen countless projects that went down drastically and the new investors are literally cursing that the price went down. The fact is there is will more sore investors when the bear market is in full swing.

^^^ Just now I noticed that Mahendra Singh Dhoni is the captain of Chennai Super Kings for today's match. It is a great decision, IMO. Ravindra Jadeja is a great player, but he was unable to handle the pressure of captaincy, and his performance was getting impacted negatively. Chennai has made a total in excess of 200, and in all probability they will be able to win today's match. Sunrisers Hyderabad bowlers looked out of sorts, perhaps with the exception of T Natarajan. Umran Malik and Aiden Markram were very expensive and went for more than 12 runs per over.
A change in captaincy from Jadeja to Mahendra Singh Dhoni changed the fortunes of the team. They got a great start and scored a huge total and then the brains of Mahendra Singh Dhoni on how to defend the total and he did that wonderfully. I was expecting Sunrisers Hyderabad to win the match considering the number of bowlers they had but CSK took the attack on them which was really surprising.
88  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and the future of crypto 10 years from now. on: May 01, 2022, 07:34:48 PM
Bitcoin is the best coin in crypto and as the years passed by there are a lot of coins (altcoins) that is more profitable in terms of investment on both short and long term process, in you're future sights and speculation of btc based on some good promising projects that is now scattering and has a posibility to move to next level in the near future, Can there will be a coin that can manage to surpass btc 10 years from now?
The last ten years have given me and everyone of us a huge profit and i am not sure how big the price would go. When it comes to technology there are other projects that are doing a much better job in terms of scaling but it hard to predict when those projects will take off. I am expecting investors to jump course at a point in time when the price reach a certain valuation, but hard to predict when that would be.
89  Economy / Economics / Re: One nation one currency... on: May 01, 2022, 06:55:52 PM
We can't expect the World to get united and form an one nation, one currency policy. Just think of a country, it can be any country around the world. From one country it have got evolved as a separate one. This has happened as a result of power and keeping humans as slaves. So, an one nation one currency is a failed one. If people are united, then instead of money there will be exchange of commodities. If money is used surely then the problem begins.
Getting an united world politically is an impossible task and you cannot expect everyone to use the same currency. But if you are trading with someone then you can give them the opportunity to choose a currency that would benefit both and if it truly benefits each other then there is nothing to worry about adopting it.

I did not understand what you are talking about power and keeping humans as slaves.

Recently Indian Finance minister N.Sitharaman said Money laundering, terror financing biggest concerns around cryptocurrency...
What can be the remedial step to address this concern.
The only aspect you need to do is to educate the politicians about blockchain technology and how they cannot get away with crime that easy. A country who is corrupt to the core according to the reports needs to understand that by implementing blockchain they cannot take bribe and if money laundering and terror financing are the biggest concerns they need to implement blockchain technology.

Thinking about it..l  I wonder how Jones will look in the cage after all these years of inactivity.  Well he trains but I'm guessing nothing like preparing for a real match?  I think the bookies could misprice the line and get him to he a huge favorite against Miocic.  But then again we'll be reminded and ask ourselves what did we expect..?  'Of course Jones wins it easy.'.  Lolol.
I consider Jon Jones to be the greatest fighter of all time but even with all the skills and training his years of inactivity will have an impact when he returns and that too in a weight division where every fighter is a knockout fighter and on top of that he is going to face the best of the best against Stipe Miocic who is one of the best Heavyweight in the division.


I missed the entire fight card tonight, have to watch the highlights.
92  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Can Dogecoin become the new BTC? on: May 01, 2022, 04:11:52 PM
no it won't. Doge coin is a meme coin, even the creator has no vision for Doge to be big, they just make doge for fun. Indeed the community is great, but that's it, nothing more to offer. I think Elon never been serious about supporting the project, he just do it for fun. So Elon buying twitter won't mean anything for Doge.
It is true that Dogecoin developers was not even serious that the market would rally when Elon Musk started to pump the market with his tweets the Dogecoin developers were scrambling to update the code so that there is no network delay which makes you think that they were not expecting this surge in activity. Even i think Elon Musk was making a point by shilling about Dogecoin and he might still do fun things when he controls Twitter.

Delhi has lost 5 wickets now and Rishabh Pant is not on the pitch anymore. They need 72 runs in 36 balls. That really seems unlikely to happen and with the batting that it follows I don't think it is realistic to think Delhi will be able to do it.
It was a huge total to chase and it came down to the last over and they lost the match by 6 runs. Axar Patel took the game close but he missed a few balls in the last over and i thought he would pull off this victory. Now a days matches are really getting closer and interesting.

LSG Is bowling really well other than the part-time bowlers. they are bowling really tight Line and length and not giving free Runs to the opponent. Delhi capitals really need to start scoring really fast otherwise the match is going to get out of their hands.
Stand out bowler is Mohsin Khan who picked 4 wickets and he picked up important wickets at regular interval and if not for his bowling performance Delhi would have won the match.
94  Economy / Speculation / Re: Elon Musk buys Twitter on: April 30, 2022, 11:56:19 PM
We will see his plan in the coming months but we all know Elon made a lot of money from Dogecoin and its possible that he will use Twitter as his playground to hype coins that he is holding, I'm ok with him promoting Cryptocurrency as it will benefit the whole community, but only coins with proven potential and serious development, there are a lot of good coins in the Crypto space with a good concept but having a hard time get the attention they needed.
Maybe Twitter with the help of Elon can help these hidden gems.
I doubt Elon Musk will be tweeting about all the hidden gems in the market, the Dogecoin meme started as a trend because he was called the CEO of Dogecoin by some of the twitter handle and he took that upon himself and wanted to enjoy the meme and that ended up increasing in valuation and many jumping into the coin and making a fortune.

The positive aspect i see with this move is that we will be having fair freedom of speech that it used to have where they hide contents where they did not agree, so we will see a major change in that aspect.

It would vary on different circumstances such as;

Low cap/Low ranking coins = Possible able to get 2x-100x or more
Huge cap/Established coins  = Getting 2x in price is hard but when it comes to assurance in terms of potential then there's no doubt to this.

Mistakes are inevitable due to unpredictable movement of the market but with due experience, we could able to handle up the situation somehow.
There is a calculated risk you need to take when you are investing in low market cap low ranking coins and if the project is having a good team and the project is having some utility then you have the potential to rally multiple folds but you need to follow the project development and make sure the team is transparent, if not sell off without think twice.
96  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How was last crypto bear market on: April 30, 2022, 11:33:33 PM
For me, the most important thing is if you are willing to HODL out through it all regardless of what your wallet $ balance is reading because you believe that the market will return and you must have accumulated more from your staking overtime plus your initial balance which will make a good profit. The 2017-'18 bear market was different for me cos I was just knowing crypto but this time, I know better and will go all the way HODLing.
The long HoDL is great but you need to understand that the coins you are holding will survive the bear market. I have seen projects that drops their project half way once the bear movement is in full flow because they know that it is impossible to make a recovery. So make sure you follow the project carefully if you are planning for the long term.

The rest of the major coins, there is nothing to worry as you will be able to hold them for the long term and with POS being the trend even though i am not a huge fan of it, you can stake the coins during the bear market and then reap the benefits later.
97  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: $75 million Seized Bitcoin to be used for donations on: April 30, 2022, 11:24:07 PM

It's no longer news how some countries around the world have seized large amounts of Bitcoin from proceeds of crime and legal battles which forced the owners of those Bitcoin to forfeit their Bitcoin to the government, and the government looking for better ways to spend the money that will have a direct impact on humanity, this has to lead the Finland government to donate $75 million worth of Bitcoin seized to support citizens of war troubled country and this has forced many in the online community to commend the action of the government as the importance of giving back to the society, proceed of crimes since most of those seized asset is either from hackers and money launderers who have stolen from the public.
Since you are talking about aide, many countries does that and it is not a huge news all the time. But now Finland is making donations in Bitcoin, it has become a front page news i believe. But if it is proceeds of crime, i would like to see them to return them to the default owners rather than giving away as aide. If it is laundered money then i do not have anything to say but if it is hacked then it should reach the owner rather than auctioning them off or give them as aide.

Netherland has some good players and to attract new members to the sport they need to see it as a sport that will provide them a good future especially financially and until then you will not find a huge pool of talents.
The money in Cricket is really less compared to other sports, some of the big nations are able to give a good payment for their players but to think about an associate team able to attract players with their pay scale is a distant dream. Players always look to secure a good future and they will sort of look for sporting events that could give them a platform to showcase their talents and with franchise cricket in full swing players can make money if they have the skills even if they are from an associate nation.

Finally Mumbai was able to win this match Cheesy at once when Pollard got out I was really sceptical, i really though this could be another nightmare for Mumbai but thankfully sams manage to hit a very good six to clear all the confusions going around in any body's mind. Even though they are out of the tournament but still that Smile on face of Rohit Sharma was really priceless.
Now the only thing we need to see is Rohit Sharma getting back in form, i was expecting him to stay in the crease for a much longer period of time but still he is struggling to score runs and with him being struggling and his entire team struggling to secure a win, it was a pathetic situation.


No team wants to get a tag of 9 consecutive losses and especially the most successful team of the IPL history. Playoffs situation is getting a bit interesting now, GT has qualified for sure, apart from that still 7 teams are competing on 3 spots, with RR, LSG and SRH on same situation.
Gujarat Titans secured their spot and the match is between Lucknow Super Giants, Rajasthan Royals and Sunrisers Hyderabad to secure the next spots and these are teams i am expecting to see in the next round.

After having 8 consecutive losses Mumbai Indians has won their first match today in this season. The target wasn't so big, still Mumbai had to play until the final over to get the victory. The score was 41 runs after 6 over. They made 20 runs in the 7th over. I think it was the turning point of the match.
I did not expect Mumbai Indians to win any matches this season but the difference i saw was that their bowlers played a crucial role in securing their victory by reducing Rajasthan Royals to a sub par total than they used to score and yet the Mumbai Indian batsman struggled to cross the winning line Cheesy.

Based on the all seasons performance, Mumbai and Chennai are the best two teams of IPL. But they are at showing worst performance in this season and staying at the last two rank. Perhaps, none of them will qualify for the next round of this season.
There is no way they will get qualified for the next round, but they were performing well in the past but this time around they changed many major players in the Mumbai Indian squad and hence they are struggling to win matches.
