The entire market is rallying for a long time and some of the coins that was not having much momentum when the top coins rallied too started rallying and people are pumping money in all the coins and i was holding some of the coins and i never thought those coins will rally and viola the price is rallying and i am not sure why some of these almost dead projects are pumping now but its good to book some profit during these good times  Cheesy.

In general the series was very boring. Main players such as Pollard and Russell were not playing for West Indies and for both the teams the scoring rate was very low. It looked as if they are just playing these matches for formality, just to get around the requirements of world test championship. Both these teams are not very good in the longer format. On the other hand the ODI/T20I matches were somewhat OK.
Pollard and Russel are not in the Test team for a long time as they are focusing mainly on the shorter format and they are playing in franchise cricket around the world and they usually give priority to that rather than playing for their national team. West Indies needs to develop new talents and it is good to see new faces are taking the responsibility and they need to find match winning bowlers if they want to compete against strong teams.

In case of PSL, it was Wahab Riaz, Darren Sammy and one of the franchise owners who breached the biosecure bubble. PCB was afraid to take any action, due to the larger-than-life stature of those who were involved. The same can happen with the IPL as well. I don't think that the BCCI will be having the courage to take solid action, in case some of the franchise owners like N Srinivasan or the star players such as Virat Kohli or Rohit Sharma breach the bio-secure bubble.
If two players are responsible for the entire event to extend then they will take actions against these players as they are loosing money, PCB will be loosing broadcasting profit and the teams will be loosing money as well, may be the precautions they took was the reason for the players getting positive. In the case with the IPL they need to be extra cautious while conducting the tournament if not this years World cup will be in jeopardy.

Pakistan is back with another performance that is not surprising and i was expecting this as i do not remember Pakistan playing back to back matches where they dominated and that is what happened here. I missed watching the entire match but South Africa made sure Pakistan will not have an easy target to chase and i wanted to see Babar Azam to take on the challenge but that did not happen.
925  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING POLL ADDED] FURY vs JOSHUA: A Two Fight Deal Has Already Been Signed !! on: April 03, 2021, 11:56:50 PM
If Joshua and Wilder were both unbeaten and faced each other a couple of years ago I would have thought Wilder would win by knockout. Now the momentum is with Joshua but he would still struggle to beat a fully fit and focused Wilder. As you can see the favourite in the poll is Fury that is because he is a much better boxer than Joshua.
Wilder created the aura that he could knock anyone out with a single punch and  even i would bet him to win the fight but now both Joshua and Wilder has a loss attached to their career and after Fury and Joshua battle it out i would like to see Joshua and Wilder to know the second best in the Heavyweight division  Grin.

even if Fury is a huge favorite here, Joshua can pull a huge upset, I want to believe that he has good boxing skill and power over Deontay Wilder, it's going to be a technical fight for both this guy, no one will be reckless to try to knock out the other.
Fury is a technically superior in my opinion from the fights he had and the experience and i am not expecting an upset unless the judges goes crazy and score for Joshua Grin.

So he can influence more and more to crypto space. One day he can centralize these system. Whats your view about this
This is not at all a positive news for anyone who loves a decentralized market and in the beginning i really thought that the decentralized market will rule but it turns out that everyone likes the centralized shit even though we see many hacks in the market people are attracted towards these markets and it has become a monopoly as they have a much bigger say in the space which is not that great in my opinion.
927  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: April 03, 2021, 10:57:05 PM
Pakistan on the other hand has the reputation to win close matches in the past but the only issue is that they are not consistent in their performance, one day they play like champions the next day they play as if they do not belong in the tournament.
I do not remember Pakistan winning close matches outside the sub continent but one thing i can say is that i did not expect Pakistan winning the match against South Africa in their own turf and i am curious to see whether Pakistan can follow up with that victory and win again and i am not denying Babar Azam as he is an exceptional talent and the ease in which he was finding the gaps was incredible.
928  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: When is this bull run going to be over? on: April 03, 2021, 10:23:51 PM
None of us will disagree with that. People were discussing about it since last year. And we heard so many good news regarding crypto in the last few months. Lots of altcoins have already broken previous ATH and the price still growing. Probably the price rally will continue till the end of this year. And there will be up-down circle every month. ETH and BNB price may increase quicker than btc.
It is not a huge surprise that the market is rallying and every alt coin is having its time and the investors who were holding the coins for a long time all profited from it and we might see a sell off anytime soon and it will not surprise me either.

When it comes to ETH and BNB we can say that they will have a much bigger rally in terms of percentage as the price of ETH started from below $50 to its new all time high valuation which is an incredible increase in valuation and that is the same with BNB as it increased over 2500% and still moving higher.

They're buying much because they understand that it's going to be the game changer in the world of investments. Many people are still in the common shares of investments and don't want to dive in with new technologies like blockchain and bitcoin.
The main reason why traditional investors took so much time to dive deep into the cryptocurrency market is because of high volatility in the market and now we are seeing institutional investors trying their hand by investing heavily and if their success rate continues then we might see more investors pumping their dollars in the market in the coming years and the negative aspect i see is that we will see a much higher volatile if these huge investors starts manipulating the market .
930  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ETH and BSC on: April 03, 2021, 08:45:58 PM
How do you know ETH gas fees will be lower in near few months? I don't think it will happen soonTM, so I believe BNB's rise will go on in next couple of months. Even if they fix ETH gas fee problem it won't be near as BNB's low fees. People get tired over 100$ swaps so they switch out. ETH swap fees won't be 1$ anytime.
The die hard fans of ETH believe that the gas fees will become lower once the ETH 2.0 is fully rolled out and that is the general concept the ETH team is giving out as well but with the higher fees some of the projects already moved from ETH to BSC and so is the reason the price of BNB is rising as if there is no limit to the rally and went from $15 to $350 in a short period.

What an amazing match... in the end Pakistan managed to win with 0 balls remaining.
Pakistan always like to surprise the cricket fans, i was watching the last overs and i was thinking about betting on South Africa to win the match as you never know when Pakistan would collapse after some strong performance and once the last over started i thought they are going to mess this one as they lost a wicket and then the player who was batting was leaving the ball  Grin.

I thought for a moment that the match was fixed and hence they are playing according to their plans leaving the ball when the match situation is really tight rather than rotating the strike and win the game rather they extended the game to the last ball which was insane Cheesy.
932  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: April 02, 2021, 10:03:09 PM
It looks as if there are plans for a 10-team tournament, with a total of 94 matches (to be played across two and half months).

And regarding the bilateral series, they are like gold dust for the BCCI, as they generate a lot of revenue. I don't expect them to downgrade the preference that is currently given to bilateral series.
I do think that it is over kill as we are seeing a lot of franchise tournaments across the globe and these are killing international cricket as i do not care about watching other series and even though the competition in the IPL is really good right now and an increase in the team means the talents that are available right now will be spread to more teams.

Top of that two and half months of cricket for a tournament to reach its final will not help either as even the world cup will not last that long and why would a franchise tournament extend that long.
933  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will NFT bring any change in crypto gambling industry? on: April 02, 2021, 09:14:41 PM
I wonder if the end of the excitement around the NFT coincides with the end of the excitement around the DEFI, will this lead to a fall in the entire market? These two areas (especially DEFI) have had a very strong impact on the entire crypto market and led to significant price increases.
I am not optimistic about the DeFi market and i am still expecting that they would crash eventually but NFT can be a real game changer for real artist where they can own the original masterpiece in a blockchain which can be unique and that is what is fetching insane amount of money in the market.

May be we might not see insane amounts in the future but the digital art market will have a face lift which included the gaming industry especially online gaming.
934  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: April 02, 2021, 08:12:44 PM
Sri Lanka does not seem to be battling to win. They want to draw the match, they will be able to draw the match easily.
Both the team played for a draw in this match too, they played slowly in the last match and ended up in a draw and the same tempo is seen here in this match as well. Sri Lanka needs 208 runs more to win and they probably will be having 25 overs to reach that total and it is an impossible task considering they are going at well under a run rate of 2.5 and they have 8 wickets in hand and they might bowl 10 more overs and end the match.
935  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: April 01, 2021, 08:39:33 PM
It’s weird that the UFC are making it a 5 round fight.  Doesn’t that make it more advantageous for Diaz since he has way better cardio and he’s known to somewhat be a slow starter.  They are def not giving Edwards any favors here.
The UFC is not giving Leon Edwards any easy approach and he was supposed to fight for the title and yet the UFC forced him to take up a fight against Khamzat Chimaev and that fight did not go through as planned because Khamzat Chimaev was down with covid and then the no contest fight and it was a five round fight and so we can assume that Leon Edwards was preparing for that but Nate Diaz might be smoking weed and having a great time when he got the call  Cheesy.

And back to Jones, maybe the reason why Dana White doesn’t want to pay what Jones is asking for is cos of Jones last two matches.  They didn’t give a good look for Jones at all.
The problem with the Jon Jones situation is that he wanted big money and he is the best talent in the world but he was never a huge pay per view draw and may be that is the reason Dana White is not willing to pay that much huge money for the fight.
936  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Who's gonna buy Tesla using Bitcoin? on: April 01, 2021, 05:52:15 PM
Buying a Tesla with bitcoin will most likely be a great sales gimmick, to generate attention around Tesla.
May be they wanted to create a hype and a selling point to attract wealthy investors but from what i understand they are having good sales even without much advertisement.

But I think only a few people will use the paying methods, as most people who hold enough bitcoins to buy a Tesla, understand that the real value of bitcoins is much higher than the dollar price bitcoins has right now.
If you are having monetary restrictions then you are not going to use them to purchase anything in life. The investors who are able to buy Tesla using bitcoin are not going to be small time investors and hence they do not compare them with the future valuation if they wanted a car now.

^^ Additionally in case of injury similar to Shryas Iyer, its not like that he will not receive any money. Indian players are insured by the BCCI in case they get injured during any game so its not going to hurt players pocket at all. 
No wonder some of the players are giving importance to the IPL than playing for the country. Moeen Ali left the squad to be back in India and play in the IPL and we know that he is not playing all the matches and yet majority of the players like to warm the bench and if they are getting the incentives for warning the bench it is really cool and i wish i was picked to warm the bench  Cheesy.

Since you said that Indian players are insured, how about the IPL foreign players are they insured as well if they are injured during the match.

As for Ngannou, and Stipe; I'm glad Francis' did it in the end, I do feel for Stipe as hes been a brilliant champion. I'm think there will be a third fight in the near future, and I'm not sure who takes it. Stipe does seem to really come back stronger each time, and it'll be an interesting fight.
I would like to see the rematch but the way in which the fight was dominated by Francis Ngannou i doubt the UFC will grand Stipe an immediate rematch and he is 38 years old and hopefully we will see the rematch this year or early next year after Francis Ngannou facing a couple of other contenders.


Unlike the Connor vs Poirier fight which I'll be honest not looking forward to it like the first or second.I just don't know where Conor is at right now, and I'm starting to think that nice guy conor doesn't help his cause. Poirer talked about how the war of words can throw a fighter off on The Joe Rogan podcast.
This is a money match up for Dustin Poirier as he is confident that he can defeat Conor McGregor yet again and so is the reason he was happy in taking this fight rather than becoming the champion. Now all they need is to hype up the match up and come out with excuses so that they can attract the fans again  Cheesy.
939  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to win at roulette? on: March 29, 2021, 11:56:00 PM
But I'm in a shock when I saw that he lost 15 bets straight, which isn't easily possible in roulette except if his luck smelled the shit of his neighbor's dog in the early morning and so, it turned grey lol. (/jk)
It happens if his luck takes a deep shit if he looses 15 bets straight, even though i am not a big fan of playing roulette online as you never know how the algorithm works but in real casino it is my go to game as it is the easiest form of gambling and it is actually fun without racking your brains like Blackjack  Cheesy.
940  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: March 29, 2021, 11:42:49 PM
The only fight i want to see is Jon Jones fighting for the Heavyweight belt and the mistake i think Stipe Miocic made in this fight is that he came into the fight lighter and if he thought about going with the same fight plan at a lighter weight was not the best decision as Francis Ngannou was able to stuff the take down and then over power him in grappling.
Dana White does not seems to be interested in putting that fight together, he was mocking Jones to move down in weight when reporters asked about the match up and these tactics are used to irritate Jones to sign the contract without his demands fulfilled. For MMA fans this will be the biggest fight but i doubt whether it will attract the attention it needed from causal fans.

Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier is set for July 10th and if McGregor fails once again he might retire  Grin.
