941  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [ BOXING POLL ADDED ] The Unification Fight: FURY vs USYK on: September 02, 2022, 08:37:47 PM
~
Fury used doping (nandrolone) was convicted of using cocaine, and ran like a coward from a rematch with Klitschko. I think when you talk about antics, you mean his trash talk, not these actions, right? Personally, it would be strange for me to evaluate this as "the shortcomings that everyone has and that's okay - no one is perfect."  Roll Eyes
As for the fee for the fight, there was already information that it would be divided equally between the fighters.
I am not sure whether Tyson Fury was taking any performance enchasing drugs and he definitely does not look like someone who takes these shortcuts  Cheesy. Regarding the rematch, he had his personal demons and was into drugs, like you mentioned cocaine and he was popped for benzoylecgonine which is a byproduct of cocaine and not heard he was convicted.

As a fan, i would like to see the fight but Tyson vacated the belt after announcing the retirement and how can this be an unification bout.

My Tokpie Exchange journey, i deposited my fund to trade their. I bought the native token of the exchange (TKP) but i can't trade it back to Eth, BNB, USDC or WBTC.
I wrote to support and they told me that i should place order based on their terms or forget about it. But the evil part of it is that they are selling below the price they want us to place.
This is the first time i am hearing about this exchange but i am not sure i understand your situation. You said you purchased their exchange token but you are not able to trade them, but in the next sentence you said that the support team asked that you should place an order  Huh, which means you could trade the token.

Edit:
I checked their token in CMC and it looks like a dead token with zero volume. There are plenty of decent exchanges in this space and still users are chasing new ones and are willing to take risk which is unfortunate.

Checked their site but i was not able to see the exchange without registering and i am not interested to register in random exchanges without knowing the volume.

Bangladesh lost the match . I think Ebadot Hossain will be criminal to Bangladeshi people.  And I also think that his contribution is the most behind the loss of Bangladesh.  Because he gave a total of 52 runs in four overs.  Anyway congratulations to the Sri Lankan team for qualifying for the next stage.
I missed the match live and i am yet to watch the highlights but was watching the scoreboard to see the updates, once Bangladesh set a solid score of 183 runs, i thought it would be a hurdle for Sri Lanka and on top of that after getting a good start while chasing they started loosing wickets and i thought they will never chase the score but was surprised to see that they won with 4 balls to spare .

It is good for Zimbabwe. If small teams are continually get this opportunity, they will do better. Just look at the Afghanistan cricket, they deserves praise today. The maturity they have shown in cricket has made the whole cricketing world splendid. If they can maintain this consistency, they will be able to improve their cricket in the upper level.
I am not sure whether it will be good for Zimbabwe, they need to find quality players and for getting exposure and experience playing against top level teams would benefit the talents, other than that there is no point in conducting these ODI series where the players hardly play the entire quota of overs let alone have a competitive match in any aspect.

Even for punters the odds are not that great since it is a one sided trashing.

Cricket is not a new game rather its as old as hills, still its not seen in any Olympics till date. The real reason is ICC along with big parties are not interested in taking cricket to Olympics. No matter how much you and me discuss here, its only about what ICC wants.
We have discussed this over and over again, Cricket was played in 1900 Olympics, if you were not aware of it Tongue. It was a two day game and only two teams participated, England and France and obviously England won the Gold. Olympics is held for 16 days and only now Cricket match duration is cut down to T20 FYI to have a realistic possibility to be included in Olympics.

~
Big fours are formed because rest of the boards surrendered there rights to them. Recently women cricket is included in common wealth games but not men. The real reason is big 3 don't wanna cricket to have more counties that can challenge there authority.
Reality check, all the countries national board including ICC is pitching billions of dollars worth of media rights and they will be obligated to follow them with the content and hence it is not about challenging any authority but to follow the media obligations without breaking the contract. Woman's cricket is not getting that much media rights or obligations and hence i wont be surprised if they include woman's cricket in the Olympics before they include Men's.

 It was a low scoring game and i was surprised to see that the pitch in UAE was green favoring the pace bowlers and both India and Pakistan bowlers bowled their heart out and even with the cramps and struggling with it Naseem Shah and Haris Rauf took Pakistan closer to the match and the fielding was overall great even though there was a dropped chance of Virat Kohli which was a difficult one. India took the game to the last over and it was a great nail biter.

when i said that there are not too many teams playing cricket right now i meant not many teams playing cricket right now regularly, tell me when did you last see a cricket match between an associate team? let alone watch the whole match

if anyone is actually watching the whole match which is being played by two associate teams, i think they should get a life, i bet that the citizens of many associate countries don’t even know that they have a cricket team, lol
Will start for this year alone and which associate teams were playing and here you can check out the matches that took place this year alone including the results.

https://www.icc-cricket.com/live-cricket/mens-results

Watching all the matches is another aspect. I wont be watching all the matches even when the top teams are playing unless there is an interesting situation in the match or whenever i am placing a bet, i will be watching the matches. Fact is no one is having the time to watch all the sporting events as there is too much Cricket being played among the top nations and no one can follow all the matches.

there is a lot of shorter cricket being played right now, including the t-ten format, yes i know it’s still going to be a pretty time-consuming match, but it’s a lot better than having a five-day match with no results, i don’t think the Olympics committee should have any problems arranging t20 matches
T20 started gaining popularity after 2007 and till now we had 4 Olympics after that and you cannot count the 2008 Olympics considering T20 started gaining popularity after 2007. Next Olympics is in Paris and the realistic possibility of inclusion is the 2032 Olympics which is taking place in Brisbane and the host nation can suggest which games to include when they are hosting and Cricket will be a real possiblity.

 Honestly, I am not perturbed at all because I am a long term hodler. But why can't the price stay steady? Are we moving towards the dippest part of the dip? Just wanna know your thoughts. Thank you.
Since you claim that you are a long term holder, there is nothing to worry. If you want the price to be steady then why you are holding the coins rather than make transactions with it  Wink. Everyone is here in this space because of the volatility and if you enter the market at a good rate then you will be reaping the profit if you are patient enough to hold for a few years.

If the market goes down further just consider it as an opportunity to average your investment rather than panicking as you are in a highly volatile market and you will see corrections every now and then.

Before the match odds were heavily in favour of Srilanka and those who went with Afghanistan got huge feast last night. With this start srilanka are already out of this tournament though anything can happen in T20 format. Teams like Pakistan and India should take Afghanistan seriously as they can do same performance against both of them.
Afghanistan has the best T20 bowler in their lineup in Rashid Khan and then they have Mohammad Nabi who is another world class spinner and then they have a young fast bowler in Fazalhaq Farooqi, so they can challenge any team with their bowling line up.

India and Pakistan match is coming up and i am not happy with the Indian bowling line up, Even though India is the favorite among the bookies i feel that Pakistan have a strong team to win the match. Toss is important as the team chasing has the advantage in UAE pitches.

Is it possible that rising electricity costs could fuel a trend towards mass adoption of renewable energy for residential use? As people seek alternatives due to grid energy being priced outside their budget? Is there a silver lining and positive note to this doom and gloom?
Having a solar panel and turning to renewable energy is a good concept but the problem is that, you mentioned people are having difficulty in paying the electricity charges right now and how are they are able to afford the high charges of solar panel installation. If you are installing off grid then the battery is really expensive and you need to change the battery every 5 to 6 years and even for On grid the charges for installation and panels are on the higher side especially for people who are struggling to pay the monthly electricity charges.

Over 20 businesses associated with cryptocurrency had been shut down in Afghanistan and the whole engagement of it has been banned just as in the case of China, hasn't this been an end to cryptocurrency in Afghanistan? or p2p can be use to circumvent the ban but if caught it's a purnishable offense.
If the Taliban regime imposed a ban on cryptocurrency trading even in a hypothetical situation if i was living their, i would not conduct any P2P transaction even if everyone convinces me that it is a safe proof method because you never know what kind of punishment you will receive in the unfortunate situation someone from the government try to infiltrate the P2P transactions to catch users making these transactions Cheesy.

Anyone placed a bet on Sporting CP and Chaves, unfortunately i placed the match in a parlay and messed up big time as i never expected Chaves to win the match as they were a heavy underdog as they are newly promoted to the league and i thought Sporting CP would be a challenge even though Chaves won the last two matches and their winning run continues. Sporting CP controlled the majority of the match but they were not able to score a goal even with 10 shots on target  Undecided.

There are reports coming out that Cristiano Ronaldo will be joining Sporting CP, hope his frustration with Manchester United will be over if they allow him to transfer rather than holding him back.

South Africa did the best to save the match, but things didn't work as they expected. During the start things went good. Once the wicket of Petersen fell, further the wickets fell continuously. South Africa lost its 6th wicket at 172 runs and ended the innings at 179 runs. With this England won have won the match by an innings and 85 runs. Now the series is tied 1-1, and the third match will be interesting as it is the decider for the series winning.
With a terrible performance in the first innings by South Africa, it was a hard come back after England scoring a decisive lead in the first innings and then it is a matter of time how long they will survive. Now a days we do not see any classic batsman who could stay in the crease for a long time and hence to think that they would survive for a day or two is an impossible proposition  Cheesy.
954  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: August 27, 2022, 08:32:30 PM
It does not take much time to change the odds and now it is not much attractive to bet on Afghanistan. The current odds are only 1.27.
However, those who took the risk before the start of the match and bet on Afghanistan, they are likely to gain good money by the need of the match provided Afghanistan manages to capitalize on this situation and win the match.
I missed the match completely, i saw Afghanistan being an heavy underdog coming into the match and i was not sure how Sri Lanka would perform but right after the toss it looked like Afghanistan controlled the match and chased the total with ease.

We have India and Pakistan coming up which is a rare encounter for a decade and it will be a huge match. Even though India is the favorite among the bookers, i have to look at the team before placing any bet.

Their next target will be privacy coins, more specifically Monero, and nobody will change my mind, regulators already issued statements against Monero and I think it's only matter of time.

So, do you know any good alternatives to Monero?
There is a possibility that the authorities will the targeting all the privacy based coins and pressurize the exchanges to remove them if they want to run their business and i believe everyone would follow that to run the business without any legal issues. If Monero is targeted, then any other privacy coins will be affected as well. Privacy is hard to come by these days and the government really hates having our privacy Undecided.

The final position will be decided in the next 2-3 months and the teams that are competing for the 8th position are:

1. West Indies (88 points from 24 matches. 0 matches remaining)
2. Ireland (68 points from 21 matches. 3 matches remaining)
3. Sri Lanka (62 points from 18 matches. 6 matches remaining)
4. South Africa (49 points from 16 matches. 8 matches remaining)

Only one among these 4 teams will manage direct qualification.
There will be a total of ten teams in the 2023 ODI World Cup right. The top 7 teams are confirmed to play the World Cup and one among the four mentioned from West Indies, Ireland, Sri Lanka and South Africa will be missing out the competition if they fail to qualify. Sri Lanka has 6 matches left and South Africa even though has the lowest points have 8 matches remaining to seal their fate.
957  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto Currency acceptance Everywhere on: August 26, 2022, 06:55:05 PM
Amidst the heavy taxation on cryptocurrency, the acceptance of cryptocurrencies have been increasing all around. A fine example for the same is the acceptance of cryptocurrencies by this street chai (tea) Shop accepting cryptocurrency. This is located in Bangalore which is one among the IT City of India. Hope this creates awareness and increase of usage among Indians.
How i view things is that, how many vendors in the entire Bangalore is accepting cryptocurrency. It is a IT City but majority of the shops does not accept cryptocurrencies as far as i know and a street vendor accepting cryptocurrency has become a news worthy article. Hope he gets more business with this publicity and since you mentioned high taxation, i wanted to know whether the street vendor is accepting the correct amount or it includes the tax  Wink.

Poms are off to a good start in 2nd test.

Kinda surprising team selection from the Proteas. They left out Marco Jansen, in the last match he contributed with the bat and ball both. Instead, they selected another spinner in the playing XI. They must be thinking of some turn on 4th-5th day. Otherwise, there is no other explanation for having 2 spinners. 
South Africa is full of surprises with the team selection and then winning the toss and electing to bat first, they already lost 8 wickets and they just scored 130 runs on the board. I expected them to bowl first considering the pitch helping the seamers in the initial sessions but instead wanted to bat first and now England is on the driving seat and if they could score runs in the first innings, they can wrap the match within 4 days  Cheesy.

Solana quickly became a favorite among many investors, Does it became the next Ethereum
Solana had network issues and this year alone the entire network went down multiple times and for a promising network, it is not a great prospect to make them the favorite investment  Tongue. Does Ethereum have the opportunity to become the next Solana should be the question asked now a days because a major migration is coming up in ETH from POW to POS and will see whether it will have any network outages as well .
