We need to care about the environment which is the base for long life. Different countries have varied pollution index and based on that is the life of the people. Over the years there were more discussion about Bitcoin mining process causing a heavy damage to the environment. To this several measures were taken by the governments creating laws that needs to be fulfilled. Renewable energy usage will make things better, and the emission released from industries are more hazardous yet governments never take any action. This is just a way to weaken the network, but it won't happen for this reason. As there is always alternate solutions available.

Rafael Nadal has labelled the ban on Russian and Belarusian players from this year's Wimbledon over Moscow's invasion of Ukraine as unfair, saying they are not responsible for the war. The All England Lawn Tennis Club (AELTC) has barred the two countries' players from competing at this year's grasscourt major in response to what Russia calls a "special military operation" in Ukraine. Belarus has been a key staging area for the invasion. AELTC's decision has been condemned by both the men's and women's tours as well as several other players. There is more and more discussion on it. Will there be any changes in the upcoming weeks.

Hard earned money, the mistake have happened there. Whether he preferred to gamble or not and so many things that have happened further is secondary. Initially he should've realised the value of money, and if that has happened he might've never spend the hard earned money. Everywhere it is all about money, and OP won't do this again of he finds it a lesson.
1304  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Are we going to see a new altcoin boom soon on: May 02, 2022, 06:13:10 PM
With altcoin investment one should not look into the bull market. Has to keep on investing and add as much possible with the good altcoins. Most of the altcoins used to pump hard when the perfect altcoin boom happens. So, rather than waiting for the moment it is good to concentrate on adding more volume of holdings to the portfolio. If ten have made themselves millionaire out of bitcoin, there'll be twenty people who have made themselves millionaire out of altcoins. So, the chance of making big profit is high.
1305  Other / Archival / Re: Why has bitcoin adoption failed in El Salvador? on: May 02, 2022, 05:15:35 PM
OP is right that the government hasn't taken the right approach to implement bitcoin as a payment method in El Salvador.
Directing users to Chivo wallet is the last thing that the government should have done.
Bitcoin is decentralized and so the government should have not promoted a single wallet.
The reason why many people were against bitcoin may be because most of them lost money in phishing and scams.
They should have made every citizen learn more about bitcoin by conducting events, lectures, workshops etc...
This way many citizens would be able to secure their money from these scams and may be this would have increased bitcoin adoption in El Salvador.
Only through a centralized wallet it is possible to provide a signup bonus. For that reason El Salvador government might've decided to go with the Chivo wallet. When people were given with little bonus, they'll atleast intend to know what it is. Here the people received the bonus and further stopped using it. This is where the problem arises, and for this government should take some measures to make use of bitcoin on real-time needs. This can be provided with some discounts when paid with bitcoin. With time surely growth will happen. Also now it's to early to conclude the happenings within El Salvador.
1306  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin and the future of crypto 10 years from now. on: May 02, 2022, 04:45:05 PM
Except a different technology other than Blockchain emerges that promises a better approach to decentralized transaction but if such project never surfaces then Bitcoin will remain the most valuable crypto currency even after 10 years.
Beyond the blockchain technology something more powerful to exist within the upcoming ten years is very narrow. Even after ten years or more, bitcoin is going to be the king of the cryptomarket.
For more profits altcoin has better profit margin when compared to Bitcoin especially when it comes to short term trades, but for long term profit Bitcoin is just a perfect tool to hold
For profiting it is always the altcoins that take the lead. Here also user needs to find the right altcoin to profit, if not this could end in a big loss. Profiting big out of altcoins sometimes depend on luck. For risk free trusted growth in the long term, it is always bitcoin.
1307  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: May 01, 2022, 11:36:48 PM
There is no ODI going on and this thread has nothing to discuss about ODI. In fact we are discussing IPL a T20 format in ODI thread. Is there anyone else like me who wanna see international cricket back in action? I dont think blackout of ODI for such a long time is good for cricket fans.

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
That is why we can ask Indian members to keep us updated on IPL, but there are so many team and long lists of matches that it is hard to keep a track of all of them. I think there is not much hype for IPL. I am not sure if I am correct but earlier we saw many celebrates supporting IPL but haven't seen any in a while.
What you've said is true. This time there is not much of celebrities found. To some extent there is a need for celebrities to support the league in terms of promotion. Now IPL have evolved as a brand and things were happening good. So, it is quite rare to see celebrities. During the CSK vs MI final the viewers count on the official broadcasting app reached 8.3million. This shows how big the league have changed through these many seasons.

Horse feeling heart attack and dying happens during the race. Compared to the heart attack caused on a human being, an animal getting sick is not a big thing. Horse racing is available long years back, but these are one a game of the rich. Now everyone have the access to be into horse racing. This is the good that these casinos have achieved.
1309  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: It's the year 2018 over again on: May 01, 2022, 06:29:03 PM
I believe this to be short term bear market. If there is no big support, then the trend will continue till the third quarter of the year. There are some predictions stating that the bear trend will continue with minor fluctuations until the upcoming halving. I don't think this will get extended for such a long time period. For all those users who have been planning to accumulate good number of bitcoin, it can be considered as the right time.
1310  Economy / Economics / Re: One nation one currency... on: May 01, 2022, 05:48:32 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.

Chennai Super Kings V Sunrisers Hyderabad
Dhoni is the captain of Chennai today. Today, Chennai's performance has changed dramatically. Chennai scored 123 runs in 13 overs, and Chennai has not lost a wicket yet. Gaikwad scored 78 runs off 43 balls. And Conway scored 38 off 35 balls. It looks like Chennai will deliver more than 210 targets today. If the target goes beyond 200 then Chennai will definitely win today. Because Dhoni is very experienced as a captain.
Dhoni have got good experience, but the Sunrisers Hyderabad players are in good form to chase big targets. This match won't be an easy win for Chennai Super Kings. As of now there is more chance of win for Sunrisers Hyderabad. Already a catch of Abishek Sharma is dropped. Another thing Dwayne Bravo isn't there, he used to break partnership in big score matches. End of 3 overs Sunrisers Hyderabad have scored 36 runs which is a good start.
1312  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin reaches maximum, target $80K BTC on: May 01, 2022, 02:42:55 PM
I think, technically Bitcoin still has the potential to hit $80k if it is able to break through strong resistance above $70k thanks to low volatility, increased buying, and more and more big companies adopting bitcoin. However, I see this year despite bitcoin's bullishness, it seems difficult to hit its $80k price target.
During the first quarter of the year more positive news have happened with bitcoin, but there is no big move in the price of bitcoin. The bitcoin hash have reached the all time high making the network more stronger.

The price of bitcoin have been stabilizing around $40k for a long with smaller moves over and below $40k. At time the resistance barriers gets broken and in a short falls back while testing the next resistance point. Apart from all these activities, there is good move with the increasing adoption of bitcoin making it one of the best year for bitcoin. Good growth will happen in the year, and before the same there is more chances of a massive dip.
1313  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin ATM Installed in Mexican Senate Building !!! on: May 01, 2022, 02:20:35 PM
The limited supply have made bitcoin more valuable than the traditional fiat. This isn't understood by everyone. Over the past few years the growth in terms of price, usage and acceptance have been increasing. The lastest is all about the politicians. In more countries we were able to see politicians interested in bitcoin, but they never make a proposal to the government. In Mexico one such incident have taken place. Maybe this can be a beginning for adoption of bitcoin by third world countries.
1314  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: May 01, 2022, 12:56:26 PM
~
Marsh and Pant have made a good partnership once after the dismissal of the openers. The 50 partnership between the two came in 17 balls. It is true that Rahul is in good form and he's the scoring machine for Lucknow Super Giants. In all matches where Rahul last his wicket earlier has ended in low target.
Placed a live bet on Lucknow Super Giants to win the match after Delhi Capitals lost their first two wickets but Mitchell Marsh and Rishabh Pant is taking on the Lucknow Super Giants bowlers and they have Lalit Yadav and Rovman Powell to follow who can clear the boundary and with 195 runs to chase the match is getting interested as the third wicket partnership is creating problems for Lucknow Super Giants.

Edit: Mitchell Marsh is gone.
Mitchell Marsh has gone, but it was a wrong decision from the umpire. Marsh should've gone for the review. If Delhi Capitals weren't able to reach the target, then it is the wrong decision that have changed the result. Marsh was in good form and making good comeback. Throughout this season there is more number of wrong decisions from the umpires. The cricket board needs to provide better training.

Wins required to get qualified for the top four position on the points table. Chennai and KKR were in a very critical position to win remaining matches to get qualified. Mumbai Indians already eliminated from this season IPL. In today's match the team seems to be playing pressure free, and it looks like the first win for Mumbai Indians.
1316  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Recovers Amid Bull Trap Warning on: April 28, 2022, 11:59:32 PM
Of course it's not a bad idea to invest at this time, although the market is bouncing around the $40k price, still a good price to enter specially if you are here for long term. Just continue to accumulate and buy in the dip.

Just take note though that personally, I think we are in a bear market, so there is still a chance that the price could go lower, and worst comes to worst, we might see the price going back to it's previous all time high. Nevertheless, as I have said, this bear market is the perfect time to buy as much as you can and wait for the next bull run to take your profits.
The price has bounced from the lows of $38k once after the buying of Twitter by Elon Musk. Exchange supply shock looks similar to the 2020 pattern. Whenever this happens, there is more chances for market pump/dump. As of now the market is on the increasing side. So we can expect pump in the bitcoin price in a gradual manner over the falling weeks.
1317  Economy / Economics / Re: Russia suspends gas supplies to Poland and Bulgaria for failing to pay in rouble on: April 28, 2022, 11:40:50 PM
.... The EU has responded saying this is gas blackmail
This coming from the people that keeps hitting Russia with sanctions hehe.
Countries United together on sanctions, and now every country wants oil. Russia is playing the lead role to keep everything within control. More plans of renewable energy production and requests for oil supply from East Asian countries failed. This is where EU mentioned it as gas blackmail... Hahaha Cheesy
.....
Russia has violated the treaty (the oil trade agreement was written before the Ukraine-Russia war), but what i see now is that Russia doesn't care about that anymore, when European countries impose economic sanctions on their country, Russia immediately considers the written agreement to be automatically void.  i know it's really tough for bulgaria and poland but if they are wise, they will surely accept the conditions from russia to save gas and oil supply in their country
Russia have been asking for other countries to honor some treaties before this conflict started from what I've read. Many of those requests were also ignored so it's not surprising they do the same.
Something has to be mutually addressed to end the war. If this keeps going on, both the country people gets affected alot. Already two months past and the war still continues. At some point it looks like European Union is playing an one sided role.

Just watched Dalien against Gasquet match, this was my first time watching Dalien and probably my last. Very annoying player without any shots and screaming like a little girl even on easy ground strokes. I had some money on him and after set 1 even I cheered Gasquet to win Smiley

Madrid started for girls today so some good matches there but I did not have time to make any bets.


I haven't watched the match, but the first set has ended with a hard fight whereas the second set completely on the side of Richard Gasquet. Today in the quarter final Richard Gasquet plays against Sebastian Baez. Being an young player this match looks like a win for Sebastian Baez.

1320  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin Legal Tender in Panama on: April 28, 2022, 09:55:06 PM
welcome to the club panama....with 3 million people who certainly already have a good knowledge of bitcoin and also have the natural wealth that is one of the world's tourist destinations, panama will be very successful with their bitcoin adoption.  what i see in the future about this is! that there will be more and more countries that recognize bitcoin, just wait one by one.
It is good for the country residents, and the population of the country is 4+million. With the adoption of bitcoin the economic conditions will strengthen. As for now there is no proper income distribution. Almost 55% of the income goes into the hands of 20% of the richest residing in the country. It holds the high human development index with which we can expect good number of people using bitcoin compared to the countries that have adopted bitcoin earlier. Majority of the population resides in the rural regions which shows that job is accumulated in specific regions. The adoption is also aimed with more jobs, let's see what all things gets fulfilled through this new law passed.
