i don't know why but in my opinion ICC feels like they have become so lazy right now, this should be the perfect opportunity for the ICC to show that they actually care about the game, i think this is a time when cricket is at its lowest point, and ICC can really show right now that they are actually working for the future of cricket by doing some simple stuff like increasing the funding of associate nations and just even trying to include cricket in the Olympics, i don't think any cricket board is planning to oppose these ideas now, but ICC is still not doing anything
I don't think they are lazy they are unprofessional and using their power in wrong way which is never been better for development of this game cricket they need to work like a strong sports authority but sadly right now they are doing all just for IPL and BCCI which is surely never been positive and developing for this game if they follow all rules and go through with level then surely they can achieve better results but sadly first Australia and England were in hold, and they used this ICC for their own sack and now India is big player, so they are doing same mistake which is surely hurting the cause of this game.

I believe they have right to take some advantage from their big shape and take some benefit but still they need to go fair and equally with all other members because this is need of time and better future of this game but sadly no one going to do any positive thing for this game which is surely going to hurt in near future.

Market will always be fluctuating so that we should never stress, rest assured that the market will soon improve and today it is proven because it rises more than 8%, I'm sure there will be many who say regret when we don't buy at prices below $ 20k, but if we have money then then Immediately buy even though it's now $ 20700, I'm sure in September it can reach at least $ 25K.
We can't guarantee the price of the market even how hard we track and trace the possible events in the market since there are many factors that is affecting how the market reacts. At this time I focus more on having more bitcoin and trading only known altcoins. Before when the market is not this low I tried to invest in some new or altcoins that are being hyped and sold when already in profit but at times like this I focus more in coins that already prove that they can survive their value even the market experience a huge dump.
Even a small news that could go big on the media could change the price of crypto which means that even if we do track everything then it is not going to be easy to predict what is going to happen. I believe that the best way to make sure crypto is doing fine, would be to hold it because even if there are bear markets like this year, I guarantee you that bull markets will come again.

2017 was a wonderful year but 2018 wasn't, then 2019 happened and saw the price go 2x higher. We had the amazing 2021 year and the 2022 bear year as well, which means in 2023 it could very well go to 40k if the history repeats itself and I do not see why it can't.
983  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Importance of Multiplayer Gaming in Gambling Industry on: September 10, 2022, 08:23:43 PM
Multiplayer gaming is very important in todays world. The world changed a lot since the covid pandemic, many things we used to do in groups with friends we are doing now at home alone. Like you said, it's important to create communities online and give a sense of companionship to each other. That is why the streaming industry saw such a huge boost recently.  There is demand for more interaction among gambler, if you check on Twitch there are thousand of people who watch gambling streams regularly. The problem is that most of the casino games are designed to be played alone against the house, and not against other human players. Poker is a exception here, but it's hard to master poker and become profitable. You can't just sit down a few days a month and enjoy online poker if you don't have a good strategy.
No not that important because it is still possible to gamble even with a single player game only like the traditional slot and dice games. People are still having fun of them. They wont get bore because these games have different variations especially in the slot category while for the dice games, you can implement endless strategies with it which can make the game more fun and exciting. Don't worry about covid because it is not a permanent disease and you will see your friends again in the real world soon. In fact, many countries are now going back to normal. School classes are now in face to face again, as well as the gambling places.

The English bowlers put on an outstanding performance! 118 runs were scored by South Africa before they were all out. It was a career-best spell from Ollie Robinson that left South Africa reeling. During this three-day test match, South Africa has put on a poor batting display. Queen Elizabeth should be honored if England wins this game.
I never imagined that South Africa would lose all wickets for just 118 runs. They batted very badly. I thought the match would be a draw. But as the poor performance of South Africa, now they are more likely to lose. Marco Jansen scored the maximum 30 runs for the team. Robinson and Board's performances were outstanding.

England managed to collect 123 runs losing 4 wickets. Ollie Pope is batting very well. He is now unbeaten on 63 runs. I guess England will be able to score at least 220 runs. And if England can collect more than 250 then they will definitely win the match. This match looks unlikely to be a draw.
What a day in test cricket as we have only 70 overs with 17 wickets and 272 on board from both sides with England is now leading by 36 runs which is good for them bowling hero Ollie Robinson and Ben Foakes at crease which mean they can add around 20 to 25 more runs which could be vital for them in this match as they are trying their best for win this match and series.

Now match is stopped due to bad light and most chances we are not having more match today and tomorrow again early start and 96 overs are enough for having good cricket from both sides if England gone bowling as they have in first inning then surely they can go ahead and win this match, but it's time for visitors to learn from their mistakes and try to stay at crease which is not easy in current conditions which are clearly favoring bowlers.

Marco Jansen and Rabada both done good job for South Africa and shattered England batting with only Ollie Pope was good enough who hold for some time and give good support to his team with 67 runs on 77 balls which could be very good for them in this match.

i believe that ICC did such a thing (reducing the amount that the associate teams are getting from the ICC) because they were not generating revenue from these associate countries
i think if it was any other sports body they actually would have tried to find a way to make the teams play better and eventually generate a lot more revenue from them

but the problem is ICC tried to take the easy way out, and they just decided to not invest more money where they are not getting revenue from
obviously, this action had some reaction, the rich countries have benefited greatly from this, and the poor countries are the ones to suffer
this reaction was possible for another reason, which is being able to form the national team with foreigners, that further decreased the quality of poor teams
This talk is going to be long because right now if ICC is going to do any decision like if they have no enough funds then they are not going to help them surely this could be disaster because they will lose good amount, and they could be not able to run their system which is very important for this game they need to work on like FIFA where they are providing funds to all countries and helping them for having better structure and quality which is very important for them even FIFA is very big, and their income is also much ahead from ICC but here they also can increase their income, but they need to do work on this with positive mind set.

Just helping B-4 is never been going to increase this game's popularity and income most of the time if they are just thinking about India and IPL then surely it's going good way for having better sources of income go ahead and do better marketing and spread this game with just T-20 format which is the best way of income for them right now.
986  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: what you think of this altcoin for 2025 on: September 09, 2022, 09:10:56 PM
when ZIL reaches ATH, has it taken the profit that was made at that time, if not then this is a burden considering the current market conditions. not a few people who miss the moment in pursuit of something bigger like their dreams, but what they get is just the opposite. Therefore, we can use this as a lesson when holding altcoins, which have already made a profit, don't think about being greedy in taking profits.
That's the problem with people who are chasing ATH prices all over again. If a project was good at one time, but never recovered and became big again, maybe it is because it is no longer that good. Crypto world keeps on improving, and that means lower level projects which are not in top 10 needs to keep on improving as well and if they fail to improve then they are not going to be staying there for too long and will keep on dropping.

Yes, I know it was good at one time, and "if" it goes back to where it used to be and gain its position then it would be awesome but there is a reason why it's not there and that reason will be the key why it won't ever get there too.

We would love to introduce ourselves to the community and share our legacy with the Bitcointalk members.
<snip>
The name of the casino sounds attractive to me. After I visited your website, I did a little background check and I found out that you have a quite good reputation. I'm glad that you decided to introduce your casino here.
It is always great to see established casino which originally a fiat casino adapt new transaction methods like Bitcoin.
I'll be looking forward more about your casino. Hope you the best!
I thought I am the only one who noticed it? Not sure but I think the name is familiar and maybe I heard it before and not totally as a casino but how can you say that they have a good reputation? What are your basis? Was it the gambling review sites, trustpilot, etc? But, maybe that is legit since they claim that they are already here since 2017 and they start as an esports betting site.

Usually sites like that have a license and are mostly legit. They ventured the world of crypto because they also see that it's booming but they did the right choice as many crypto casinos are already successful now and they might be the next on the list.

I think the most u thinkable might happen. Sri Lanka might lift the Asia Cup, i was keeping Sri Lanka as the least favourites of winning this world cup as they weren't performing well at all lately. I even ranked them below Afghanistan and Bangladesh but to an utter surprise to everyone they have defeated the best of the teams of Asia. Indian fans are feeling really sad, just those two balls in Pak vs Afg match would have changed the scenario completely for India as rest everything went in India's favour. But now I am betting on Sri Lanka for the Final as well because Pakistan will come with a mental pressure of this defeat in the next match.
Resurgent Sri Lanka is going to be very dangerous in final and coming world cup because their attitude is surely positive and after long bad patch they are giving amazing performance specially in last three matches they are having full command in matches against Afghanistan, India and now Pakistan their record in Asia Cup is also very good specially against Pakistan.

They have done good experiment which is going to help them in final game with this performance most chances they will lift trophy another time and going to be DARK Horse in coming world cup because their record in Australia is also never been bad for Pakistan they are not learning from their mistakes which mean we are not going to have any positive development from them, and they can do down badly.
989  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Asian Cup 2023 Prediction and Discussion on: September 08, 2022, 09:11:08 PM
Japan is the record holder of winning the Asian Cup four times, and in this tournament Japan is still one of the strongest candidates to win the Asian Cup. Regardless of what you said and I don't think it's an indicator of why Japan can win the Asian Cup four times, Japanese football is more advanced than other Asian football, especially Southeast Asia.

However, in recent years, the development of football in several Asian countries has experienced a lot of improvement so that the Asian Cup this time is more competitive. IMO, some of the candidates who will win the Asian Cup 2023, Japan, Australia, Korea, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, they have the potential to appear in the final of the Asian Cup 2023.
But I personally have more attention for the current Qatar squad, Qatar is a cup finalist asia 2019, and it looks like qatar will again win the asia cup 2023.
Korea and Japan are both leading soccer countries in Asia for long time, and they have very strong structure and quality players those are serving into UEFA for many years which is now having amazing way of improve their quality with both are economical strong, so they can invest good funds for development which is not possible for many other countries in Asia with this all now Australia is also part of Asia which also increase quality and Iran, Saudi Arab and Qatar are other countries in Gulf which are keen about this sport, and they are improving their structure and developing their system which is good with this all they can rule into Asia.

Japan is surely more enthusiast about this all, so they are leading country in Asia, and they can do this again as well even now day by day competition is going to be tough for all countries which is good for the game in this region which need good environment and better facilities for good results like Africa.
990  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🤯 Trust Dice | sorry but we reduced your winnings by 90% but it’s okay 👌 on: September 08, 2022, 08:39:54 PM
Again I present another example:

If I deposited 4mbtc and accepting the freespins bonus.  Spin through the spins and win the maximum amount allowable by the bonus and then clear the 40x playthrough, despite this incredible achievement I would actually have less money than I deposited. I would have only 3.3 MBTC but I deposited 4 MBTC.

This shifts the favor in advantage of the house by such a high amount that the game is nearly impossible and should not be described as gambling st all.  It's either purely for entertainment and not really gambling or its a scam that used magic tricks to calculate their players balances. 

Again.  No other casino operates under these corrupted rules and calculations.  It's asinine. 
This is why I always think twice if I think the bonus terms are confusing but I always ended up not playing through them because in my mind, I will only get busted without getting that tiny amount of bonus. Better if I will play the normal way because there are no commitments on it and there is no limit on how much I can win and withdraw.

The house always has the advantage, this is why it's called gambling because you will be needing an extreme luck in order to win on them but it can also be entertaining because you won't know if you will get lucky or not but the most important aspect of all is that you must be willing to accept your defeat.

Australia won the third match, and won the series as well. But once again, their top order collapsed. And it was poor bowling from New Zealand as well. From a total of 117/8, Australia managed to recover to 195/9, as a result of contributions from their lower order batsmen such as Mitchell Starc, Adam Zampa and Josh Hazlewood. The last two wicket partnerships added 78 runs and proved to be very crucial in a low scoring match. Not very impressed with captaincy tactics from Kane Williamson. He should have used Boult and Henry to wrap up the tail.
After first two ODI Aussies won this series by 2 - 0 and third ODI is coming after two days but after watching this performance from both sides look like both have no idea how to bat 61 from Steve Smith and 38 from Mitchell Starc were enough for home side to reach at figure of 195 with Henry and Boult again demolish Aussies badly with seven wickets but after this what we have is more shameful for kiwis as they are not have good quality batting and losing wickets very quickly specially Zampa done good damage to them and have 5/35 which is his career best Kane Williamson 17 from 56 balls and Mitchell Santner 16 main scorer for them, they need to do something special for fight back have one win from this series and better future in their future otherwise they are going down and out from seen again for long time.
992  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling Problem, Is it Possible to be a Thing of the Past? on: September 07, 2022, 08:00:40 AM
It is quite possible that gambling could be a thing of the past,yes because man was not cursed to remain a gambler for life,and the moment one discovers that he is getting addicted to gambling,he can decide to quit it and make it a thing of the past.I know it's very hard to stop a habbit,but the moment it's becoming a problem,it is good to stop it and look for something to keep you busy to avoid gambling again.
The inability to take a decision and stand on it is the reason so many people seems not to be able to leave the habbit of gambling.They are unable to control themselves when the spirit comes,but the moment you can control yourself,you can make it a thing of the past without stress.
It is possible to get out of any addiction not just in gambling but it is very hard. Some addicts are regretting and now want to change but it's almost impossible for them already. This is why some are dying and were not successful on their attempts. I feel sorry for them. We shouldn't wait before we end up on that scary situation but it's important to identify our condition now if we are getting addicted in gambling or not.

There are online test about gambling that we can try. If you think you are positive, then you can try some practice and one of it is like you said diverting our attention on other things which could make us busy and forget gambling.

Srilanka is in control of the match at the moment. They are regularly taking wickets and Indians aren't able to settle down. Both the set batsmen Rohit Sharma  and Suryakumar Yadav are gone.
I smell an upset today but let's see how the game progresses in the Srilankan innings. Remember Srilanka is used to chasing big scores in the previous matches but this time they may not even have to chase a big score.
Before start of this match I was giving 35% chance to Sri Lanka and 65% to India but now after end of first half now Sri Lanka increase their chance with 45% and India is having 55% they have done good work in bowling and fielding with just 173 runs India is short of 15 to 20 runs from their target even their bowling is good, and they have few quality bowlers who can change things drastically but after back to back two wins is also giving good chance to Sri Lanka as they can do better for themselves and surely this win can give them spot into final which is surely in their mind.
 
Today Just Rohit Sharma was in good touch all others were badly missing their good touch which is very important for matches like these Kohli was the biggest disappointment after having two 50+ today got out on duck is not good for his confidence.

After this week we can safely say that Süper Lig is shaping up. Konya and Başakşehir are gonna be rather better teams of league this season. Especially its hard to score goal against Konya defence.
Beşiktaş is probably still best performing team in league as they lead now. I really like to watch Beşiktaş matches compared to Galatasaray. Galatasaray is just best dream team of low score betting guy.
Agreed now things are clearly coming out about strengthen and weakness of all teams, but there is no doubt Konyaspor which have 11 points from 5 games and not goal concede in these all games mean their defense is best at top rank, and they can achieve much better place with this strength even attack is also doing good job after first two goalless matches they are having a goal in every game with Basaksehir is relatively had better attack but in next ten days they are going to have best challenges as now 8th September Hearts then 12th September Besiktas on road and 16th September at home they are going to host Fiorentina hopefully they will manage these all positively and this season could be impressive for them.

Here is  the top 10 Cryptos with the highest potential to grow, can you suggest which is the game changer in 2023??
No mate, some of the coins are not included on the current top 10 according to cmc or coingecko. Maybe what you mean is the top 10 according only on your list or portfolio? Obviously eth is the game changer among all but you better removed this on the list if you want a more fairer competition. You should also remove the meme coins because many of us will only marked them as the poorest. You said you hodl lots of solana and apecoin.

I have no problem with solana even though it have some issues lately but I think it can be able to recover soon but for the apecoin? I have a big doubt on this one but since you already have this, you shouldn't hodl this for long term.
996  Economy / Economics / Re: Flood causing economics crises on: September 05, 2022, 07:28:04 PM
The global weather is being affected and changing globally because of all our activities.

The worst scenario for people relying on farming is drought followed by heavy rains. The
ground is baked hard and when the rains come there is minimal soakage so the water runs
off the land to lower areas causing floods.

How farming use the land does not help the cause and the effects of the floods hits the local
economy massively from loss of crops, loss of employment and the cost of rescue
and rebuilding.
All things that are too much is considered to be bad. Farmers or their plants rather will need a sufficient amount of sunlight and water (rains) so that they can grow their crops healthy but because of what some people are doing (bad things which affect the environment) this breaks the balance of the weather.

Sometimes we feel too hot and sometimes too cold or too much rains, which is not good for those who have a farming business. When people starts littering around, that is also the number one cause of floods. Floods are very damaging not only to the farmers or their crops but also the people who are going to be affected with it.

Even no one can complain about this all but still here ICC needs to work on fair policy for all countries and try to have level in treatment as well because this is very important for them the spirit of this game and better value in future now as USA is also trying to enter this which is good and surely this can increase revenue of ICC because too many Indian, Bangladeshi, Pakistani and Sri Lankan are settled which will increase popularity of this game.
Let's for a. moment appreciate both the teams for showing amazing cricket today
Pakistan is experiencing a crucial flood in most of his region - and there is political turmoil too since last 6 months.
I believe this win will bring a bit of happiness to the people of Pakistan - congrats everyone..
We have too many entertaining matches in this Asia Cup and this was also one of them with first match of this cup which played between these two teams on last Sunday was also very entertaining then we have two Afghanistan matches first against Bangladesh and then against Sri Lanka have another level of entertainment now this match again give good and performance from both teams and at the End Pakistan were winner which is good at this crucial time when they are suffering from many setback like floods and political unrest.

Even I am feeling they are in this situation for last few decades specially after 9/11 when USA attack Taliban in Afghanistan after this region is having not good news for anyone but now things are going worst hopefully we have some good news in near future from this region and this will also change into better living place.

It was a holly molly moment when Zimbabwe scored the winning run and that too against a strong Australian side. Ryan Burl single handedly orchestrated the Australian collapse in the middle order and he took two catches in the outfield and picked up 5 wickets and then when Zimbabwe was struggling chasing the score he contributed with the bat as well and once in a lifetime moment for him Cheesy.
They definitely had a good home season for a month or so.

Won against Bangladesh, gave an okay fight in the last match against India, and finally impressive win against Aussie.

Kind of a failure of the ICC that Zimbabwe won't get any series against India, Australia, and England for the next 4 years.
Surely here big failure of ICC as they fail to have series between top teams and weaker in four years tenure which is widening gape between big teams and lower rank teams they are not having enough chance to face them and have experience which is important for increase in quality of these countries.
 
If they can't provide window in one or two years then surely they need to work on this they much face each other in four years gape which is also acceptable because this will give big boost these small countries and youths will also have better feeling about these big countries and their players which is also having good impact on overall this game.

But sadly ICC and their B-4 never realize this all, and they are trying to fill their pockets with better profitable series even they are losing their charm due to too matches between these teams and mostly have no good impact.

Believe me, both France and Denmark played with their strongest teams against Croatia, and at home, but they still had no chance against Croatia and lost the matches.
The matches were in June in the League of Nations, just a few months ago.
Croatia is often underestimated as a team, this was also the case in 1998 at the world championship in France when we were third in the world and in 2018 in Russia when we were second in the world. We always play our best when no one believes in us and when others underestimate us.
Croatia is surely one of the best team in UEFA, and mostly they are no in media which is surely wired as in last world cup they lost against France with they play seven games and lost just one which was in final against France it's surely amazing performance from them, and they have good record in their short history of World Cup.

In 1998, they were first time in this event and lost only two matches one against Argentina and second against World champions France in semifinal and after this they have play in three events all time lost in group stage but as they have their fourth event in Russia again they were on top of the game and reach into final where again France dispatch them and take this trophy with this both times they were lucky for France first in semifinal and second time in final.

We can expect something special from them as now they are having good squad with many skilled players those are doing good in European clubs and can do better in this event as well.

I tried this before and I think I fall on their trap before which I think there was an airdrop something about their own utility token which got some huge worth but before you can withdraw those funds off their exchange you need some transaction inside their exchange or it seems you need to buy their own token or have some trading activities with of course got trading volume for some period of time.
I think they are only doing that to prevent abuse and only those who genuinely use the exchange deserve to get a reward like that. Think about the free bonus that you can get on a gambling site. You can't also withdraw them right away right? But, you need to do some wagering first and sometimes you are required to deposit a certain amount along with that.

If we can disregard that part then maybe we can find some interesting features about that exchange that isn't found yet on others like what if they have a low fee and a nice trading platform which is less buggy. Just don't deposit big amount first @OP until you are fully confident with their security.
