Why would you limit it to 4 years?  Even if you increase your investment to $50 per month that would be right around $600 per year and $2,400 in 4 years.  It does not seem to be a place to be stopping.  And let's say you extent that to 20 years, and then you have right around $12k invested, so now you might start to be getting somewhere in the event that your disposable income does not go up.. but there can be ongoing adding of value and then at some point it might start to become more clear if you should be changing your strategy or at what point you might be getting to be out of accumulation phase and into either maintenance stage or liquidation stage.. and surely from my own thinking it does not seem clear to transition from accumulation stage to liquidation stage without first going through a period of maintenance stage... but hey, each of us have our ways of thinking about these kinds of bitcoin investment related matters.
Actually I earn about 180 dollars per month doing masonry work. I put aside a day's worth of my paycheck at the end of this work week to invest in Bitcoin and my wife puts about $25 of my monthly income into insurance. We have done this insurance for about 10 years.Where we have to deposit 25 dollars amount money every month.

JayJuanGee After reading the post you quoted me I explained to my wife that if we invest the money in the insurance we are collecting into bitcoins our bitcoins will increase. We will even get more money if we invest in bitcoins than if we put money in insurance.

My wife is literate which didn't take me long to convince her but she already had a little idea about cryptocurrencies and even Bitcoin. But he didn't understand well about bitcoin investment after I explained him well he asked me to invest that amount in bitcoin instead of saving the money in insurance. We have decided to start our new bitcoin investment journey from next month i.e. January and invest $45 per month in bitcoins and its duration will be ten years. In future we have decided to increase the amount of investment but we will try to increase it according to the cost of our family.

I first started with a very small amount of money to invest in Bitcoin. I once decided to borrow $1000 from my family to invest in Bitcoin but later changed my mind.I changed that decision to the fact that I am connected to a job and get a certain amount of money from it every week I invest a day of money from it in bitcoins. I do masonry work from which I get fixed amount money every week. I take one day's worth of money I get every week from this masonry job and invest it in bitcoins. That is 5 dollars worth of bitcoins, that is 20 dollars worth of bitcoins per month. I am trying to invest in dollar cost averaging (DCA) method every month.

I have been accumulating bitcoins like this for about nine months. But I have decided that when my source of income increases I will invest more in Bitcoins. I intend to extend this investment method up to four years and will do so. People who don't have much money to invest in Bitcoin can invest in Bitcoin using Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) method. I hope that if I invest in Bitcoin for the long term, I will never be disappointed.

Corruption is constantly increasing in every country in the world. I don't know when this corruption will decrease.In the country where I live, every single citizen of our country, including us, is a constant victim of corruption. There are also countries where bribery is required to get a simple job which is part of corruption. So we all should speak out against corruption otherwise the whole world will be full of corruption one day.

UAE will remain a weak team because they don't have any domestic setup of cricket. There is no interest of cricket among local people there, the team is entirely made up of players from South Asia. On the other hand, despite the regime change in Afghanistan there team is getting stronger and stronger since they have a domestic setup and cricket s popular among locals there. Same is the case with Nepal, they have qualified for T20 world cup next year for the first time because of years of continuous effort.  
There is not much craze for the game of cricket in the UAE. It is true that countries where the popularity of cricket is low and domestic leagues are not organized regularly never produce good players. But I am more surprised to see the Afghanistan team because I don't know if there is any such domestic league in their country but the popularity of cricket in their country is very high due to which they are producing regular good players in their country. Afghanistan has already emerged as a formidable team in cricket which has seen them compete against many of the bigger teams.

Australia Women vs India Women

The second ODI between Australia Women's team and India Women's team has already started.Australia women batting first in this match and they scored 96 runs for one wicket in 19.4 overs.They are doing this very well towards scoring big runs. What the Indian bowlers need right now is to pick up the wickets of the Australian women's team at regular intervals.If not, this match could be a repeat of the first match with the Indian women.

Gambling is a bad addiction that once one becomes addicted to this gambling one cannot easily come back from it. I have seen most of the youths who are unemployed indulge themselves in gambling most of all to earn money.But they don't know that it can be terrible for them when they can lose everything due to gambling addiction. I have seen some money hungry people who have their own job or business also get addicted to gambling and even end up back in debt.

The result of the first test match did not go in India's favor so those who are Indian fans must hope that the result of the second test will go in their favour. They should have put in more effort than India did. As they had enough quality batsmen in their XI, if they had tried their best they might not have been defeated like this. India lost the first test match so we will definitely see a different plan and some changes in the XI in the second test match. Team India can prepare the eleven with a new batsman by excluding two or one batsman from the eleven of the first test match. Hope India will perform better in their second test match and the result of the second test match will go in their favor.
We didn't get what we expected from the Indian team and they disappointed us. Indian captain Rohit Sharma has performed very poorly in the two innings of this test match. India's top order batsmen have been performing very poorly due to which India lost the Test match against South Africa miserably.

I think India had enough potential to win this Test match against South Africa, they had good batting and good bowling line-up but they failed.

Australia W VS India W 2nd ODI

Which team do you think will win today?
There is a saying in cricket, "Cricket is a game of glorious uncertainty". So it cannot be said in advance which team will win. But based on the game on the field it will be proved which team will win. But according to our plan we hope that the team we support will win.

The second ODI will be played between India Women's team and Australia Women's team. Earlier, India Women's team lost to Australia Women's team by a huge margin of 6 wickets in the first ODI match. India Women's team must win two more matches against Australia Women's if they want to win the series.

I agree with you. In the last few months we have been seeing excellent performances from Afghanistan players. They have become very strong in ODI and T20 formats. The squad has a lot of talented batsmen who are capable of batting at a smart strike rate. Afghanistan team also performed well in the World Cup. Afghanistan players are gradually becoming more experienced by playing in various franchise leagues.

UAE team is very weak compared to Afghanistan. These two teams will play three T20 matches in this series. And I guess Afghanistan team will win easily in all three. Defeating a team like UAE is not a difficult task for Afghanistan. Also Afghanistan players are in good form now.
The way Afghanistan team is improving day by day in their cricket is really commendable. Their team has a lot of talented players and several all-rounders who regularly play in various franchise leagues. In the recently concluded India World Cup, the Afghanistan team performed brilliantly as a team. Afghanistan team is currently performing very well in T20, ODIs and Tests as well.

One of the best batsmen of Afghanistan team is Rahmanullah Gurbaz. I think he is a perfect batsman for T20. He scored 100 runs in just 52 balls in the first T20 match between Afghanistan and UAE. His strike rate was 192.31 which is simply unique. His teammate Ibrahim Zadran also played brilliantly as he scored 59 runs as Afghanistan piled up a huge capital of 203 runs against the UAE.

India Cracks Down on Offshore Crypto Exchanges — Blocks Binance, 8 Other Platforms
https://news.bitcoin.com/india-cracks-down-on-offshore-crypto-exchanges-blocks-binance-8-other-platforms

Practices bad habits on Indian govt??

I don't know why they do it but most of the time it is done by some very enthusiastic people who are involved in government policy making.

The Government of India Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology has declared various cryptocurrency exchanges illegal within their country and has directed the Government of India to ban access to cryptocurrency exchanges. The Indian Finance Ministry has announced that the Financial Intelligence Unit India (FIU IND) has issued show cause notices to crypto service providers of nine exchanges.

The nine crypto exchanges that the Indian Finance Ministry has sent notices to are Binance, Kucoin, Huobi, Kraken, Gate.io, Bittrex, Bitstamp, MEXC Global, and Bitfinex. India's finance ministry also said 31 crypto service providers have been registered with FIU IND. The Indian Finance Ministry has informed the country's Parliament of the list of 28 crypto service providers that are registered with the Financial Intelligence Unit so far.

28 crypto service providers:

In women's cricket, totals in excess of 300 are quite rare. So I would say that the target set by India (283) was quite decent. And all of it was due to the partnership between Jemimah Rodrigues and Pooja Vastrakar. They made a good recovery, from 182/7 to 282/8. And then, India got the perfect start when they got Alyssa Healy out (wicket going to Renuka Singh Thakur). However the match slipped out of their hands. Once Renuka and Pooja completed their first spell, the inexperienced bowlers like Saika Ishaque failed to keep up the pressure on the Australians.
282 is quite a decent target in women cricket and we can't blame Indian batting for this loss. Indian bowlers were not able to get wickets today, there only success was to remove Alyssa Healy in first over and after that there is no major success. Second wicket has partnership of 148 runs between Phoebe Litchfield and Ellyse Perry. This is where game went in Aussies half and India lost the track. Aussies now lead the series 1-0 now but India still has two more chances to make a come back.
After losing the first Test match to India, the Australian women bounced back in the first ODI match and beat the Indian women's team in that match.
India women team played well in the first ODI they scored 282 runs which was enough to win.However, their bowling was not up to expectations as a result of which they lost to the Australian women's team by a huge margin of 6 wickets.
But Indian women's team has two more chances in front of them if they can win these two matches then they can win the series against Australia women's team.

Pakistan lost Muhammad Rizwan at 219 runs and after that dismissal next 4 wickets went down for just 18 runs. Pat Cummins was too good with bowl in both innings by picking 5 wickets in each innings. Chasing 300 runs target against Australia is never easy. Pakistan should have restricted Aussies target to 250 but that dream was shattered by Marsh and Smith.They are the one who fought hard once Aussies lost 4 wickets for just 16 runs. 
Pat Cummins was the player of the match in this test series. Pat Cummins is in great form now as he led Australia to win the World Cup against India in the recently concluded 2023 World Cup. Their winning streak has probably continued since they haven't lost a match since the World Cup.
Today Pakistan created chances to win but eventually lost to Australia by 79 runs.After the dismissal of Md. Rizwan, the batting of the Pakistan team could not sustain well as a result of which they were dismissed very quickly and Australia won the match.

In the 2nd Test match of Australia vs Pakistan, Pakistan team scored 264 runs in 73.5 overs losing 10 wickets in 1st Innings. Australia team scored 318 runs in 96.5 overs losing 10 wickets. Australia team is leading by 241 runs.  Lyon took 4 wickets with 73 runs in 18.5 overs. Cummins took 5 wickets with 48 runs in 20 overs. Australia team bowlers Lyon and Cummins gave excellent performances which put Pakistan batsmen under pressure.
Australian International test cricket team is dominant on Pakistani team and Australian team will this match easily . Two days are remaining of 2nd test match between Australian International team and Pakistani International test cricket team. Australian should make a score of 350 runs and then they give batting to Pakistani International cricket team. Pakistani would not chase this type of big. They will all out by making only 150 runs and Australian International test cricket team has capacity to all team out on 150 runs . There is very tough time for Pakistani International cricket team. They should draw this match and practically that is not possible and Australian International cricket team will be victorious and they will lift the cup . And they deserve this.


Well, Pakistan have a good comeback in this test match. The real turning point in this test match for them was that after being all out at 264 runs, they managed to bowled out Australian team in 262 runs and this gave them a little over 300 runs target to chase in the final innings and win this test match. Thanks to Shaheen Shah Afridi and Mir Hamza who took four wickets each and let the Pakistan team back in the game.

They needed to have a good partnership in the fourth and final innings of this test. Shan Masood and Babar Azam, tried to bat out but they now have lost 5 wickets for 162 runs. Still they need 155 runs but we all know that the Pakistan batting collapse can happen at any time and Australia would be waiting it happens soon.
I am thinking about the positive side of Pakistan.Pakistan have collected 182 runs for five wickets and they need only 135 runs to win this test match which I think is very close as they still have five wickets in hand. Pakistan's wicket keeper batsman Md Rizwan and Saud Shakeel are batting at the moment. If both of them can give their best performance for their team then Pakistan will definitely be able to win this match.

Of course the second T20 match will be interesting. Having lost the first match to Bangladesh, New Zealand will definitely try to win the second match. Meanwhile, after winning the first match, Bangladesh will hope to win the second match. If Bangladesh can win today's match then Bangladesh will ensure T20 series win.  So today's match is very important for both the teams. The game will be held at 12:00 PM Bangladesh time. I am a citizen of Bangladesh and wish Bangladesh victory.

New Zealand would be looking for revenge after getting humiliated in the first match. Their top order and middle order batsmen failed against spin as well as pace. As with other teams, New Zealand selectors have gone for a young squad for the T20 format, but from what I can see it is not working that great. Finn Allen, Tim Seifert and Glenn Phillips used to be in such great form, but none of these players made a significant contribution in the first match. It looks possible that at least one of them will be dropped for the second match.
Finn Allen, Tim Seifert and Glenn Phillips are in great form but all three of them performed very poorly in the first T20 match against Bangladesh. Out of the three of them, two were dismissed for no runs and one for one run.

In the second T20 match between Bangladesh and New Zealand today, Bangladesh have already won the toss and elected to field first. Maybe Bangladesh want to play with a target like the first match where they invited New Zealand to bat despite winning the toss.
If Bangladesh can hold down New Zealand like the first match today, then it is expected that Bangladesh will be able to win today as well.
