1401  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Madeira and Prospera adopting bitcoin as legal tender on: April 07, 2022, 06:22:08 PM
With small countries it is an easy thing to adopt bitcoin. It is true that small droplets make an Ocean. Here small countries adopting bitcoin as legal tender will make big change when large nations step into adoption of bitcoin as legal tender. Euro being the official currency used in Madeira there will be political pressure in the coming days. Madeira is recorded as one of the poorest region of Europe. In contrary to the same it is the second richest region of Portugal.

their government should have evaluated their crypto situation first before moving to this action. they have people who are trying to earn a living via crypto, and if they will remove it, where will they get their money to buy food from. because earning few bucks from crypto matters to these people. and now, their government is hindering them to at least achieve a decent life. just hoping that they will re-consider their position very soon.
Every government will have clear visibility of the country's situation. Taking the same into account it needs to make changes to the system. There is a huge number of people who depend on cryptocurrency for their living and this will affect the people. Apart from this the government ranks on the top order in corruption. Making a solution for the same could boost its economy than making bans over the cryptocurrency usage by the common people.
1403  Economy / Economics / Re: Sanctions left and right, Can the Russian economy survive? on: April 06, 2022, 11:37:50 PM
The biggest advantage that Russia has is that it has natural resources that almost no other country has. I firmly believe that with Russia's current condition, they will be able to withstand international economic sanctions for several months and even years into the future. Western countries should be able to find other ways to stop the war other than by imposing sanctions on Russia.
They're able to withstand with it.

No matter how bad the sanctions are, they've probably anticipated this and has a lot of options to make with their allies and countries that would still like to trade with them.

It's actually not a loss for them, they may experience a bad economy these days but it won't be staying there forever and they'll gradually recover. The same as the normal markets that we know related to crypto.
With the available resources Russia have got the ability to overcome any sanctions. Just with the oil Russia have made the plan and demanded to pay in Rubles, if not just shut down and move. Western nations might've never thought of such a demand. In the long term the economy will recover, and with this war more other forms of trade have begun and this will affect the USD in the long term.

I don’t think that it’s fair to assume things like these as there’s zero evidence that can prove black money is involved during IPL games. Furthermore all IPL player’s, officials are under constant scrutiny and if anyone was involved then they would have been exposed by now, therefore till credible evidence pops up I feel that we should not spread rumours about IPL unless they can be proved.

You are right we can't say about match fixing until its proven. There is no one who speaks against IPL not even the icc since everyone gets his fair share. The ROI will be low if you rely only on legitimate sources like sponsorship, TV rights etc. Big parties need big return on there investment and this comes only with some fixing.
I want to bet on Pk and Aussie match, I think Pakistan will win the match today and I also believe that match is a fix.
I don't know why Pakistani give their best at the end why we have to wait till last over to see when the team Pakistan is going to come back.

What made you think that the last ODI between Pakistan and Australia was fixed? Do you have any proof? I see other people also writing that IPL matches are fixed too.
What has happened to you, the cricket community here?  You people do not have any proof and are self claiming that matches are being fixed.
Strange isn't?
When the user gets unpredicted results they term it as fixed matches. It isn't happening now, this is common in all games. In specific with cricket we can see it quite often, because even a single player can change the game anytime. With Australia Pakistan match there is no reason to state it a fixed match. In the second ODI Pakistan gave the best. In the third ODI Pakistan lost a single wicket and that might be the reason for stating it a fixed match. In my understanding Pakistan took the home ground advantage to mark the win.
1405  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How would crypto fare without centralized exchanges? on: April 04, 2022, 11:26:26 PM
Of course, there is no 100% guarantee that this will not happen, but I am sure that if major countries block exchanges and cryptocurrency, following the example of China, these exchanges will simply open under new jurisdictions and continue to operate. It is impossible that absolutely the whole world is against cryptocurrencies. Cryptocurrencies are a business and it is bound to benefit someone in this world. The crypto industry is mobile. Remember how miners simply changed their location after the ban, the same will happen to exchanges. Yes, the market will be shaken by such bans, but after exchanges reopen in other places, the market will start to recover, just like the hash rate recovered after the Chinese ban. It is impossible to ban cryptocurrency completely.

If governments unanimously rely on a "One World Currency", then it's probable they will ban crypto altogether. But it's very unlikely we'll ever see such a unified currency, since countries can't reach a common agreement. As long as this is the case, it will be impossible to ban crypto for good. Even if they did, crypto will still survive thanks to its decentralized and censorship-resistant design. Centralized exchanges only constitute a small portion of the crypto ecosystem, as the rest is dominated by miners, stakers, and even decentralized exchanges themselves.

What matters here is decentralization. With it, crypto will be able to stand the test of time regardless of a government crackdown or ban. Who knows if crypto lives alongside Fiat for generations? Just my opinion Smiley

It is unlikely that the world would use anything uniform, there have always been discrepancies. I don't remember a time when the whole world used any particular standard or measure of measurement. Likewise with the attitude towards cryptocurrencies. Someone will not support the majority in any outcome. We will never see a single cryptocurrency solution and we will never see a single cryptocurrency for everyone.
Yes, to reach on a common currency for the entire world won't happen. This is all because of the difference in the economies and countries won't destuct their own sovereignty. With cryptocurrency too the same is happening, the gold standard is the only thing that is being commonly followed by the countries. Maybe something similar to gold standard out of bitcoin might interest governments, but the volatility won't let it happen.

Lucknow Super Giant vs Sunrisers Hyderabad

I chose the Lucknow Super Giants team today. Because in the previous match against Chennai, they had a great performance. Batting on the target of 211 runs, they got an easy victory. But today de Kock, Lewis, and Pandey could not play well. At the end of 16 overs, Locknow's collection was 120 runs. Rahul and Ayush are at the crease. If they can collect 50 runs in 4 overs then maybe they can win the match. It will be difficult for Lucknow to win if the target is less than 160.
Lucknow had to collect 169 runs. Doesn't look like a very bad collection, Lucknow has a chance to win if the bowlers can perform well.
Hyderabad lost the first match by 61 runs against Rajasthan. So they need to win today's match. However, to win the match, the top order players have to play well. The wicket cannot be lost before the end of the power play.

Sunrisers Hyderabad scored 91 runs in 12 overs and lost 3 wickets. Now they need to win is 79 runs from 48 balls. Rahul Tripathi is now at the crease, who is unbeaten on 41 off 27 balls. Since they still need to collect about 10 runs to win every over each. So the chances of winning are still equal for both the teams. Let's enjoy the match.
seems interesting - who won the match Sunrise Hyderabad or the other team? My local TV does not broadcast IPL how are the matches going on and how much excitement it has brought in IND about the IPL? Who do you think will win the tournament?
The match was won by Lucknow Super Giants. This season we've been seeing different range of performance from teams that aren't expected to top the table. On the other side the leading teams Mumbai Indians, Chennai Super Kings, Sunrisers Hyderabad were fighting to make their very first win. More matches to be played, and there is chances of comeback.
1407  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Free Gambling Course provided by OnlineGambling on: April 04, 2022, 10:21:43 PM
An initiative that isn't necessary, because gambling is for fun. When it is associated with the learning, it becomes a profession. Giving a visual content to make gamblers know how to play is different from giving a course on a specific game. Some might find it a needed one, but in my view it is unwanted.

Does the course assure of a win and profit out of the game once after the completion of the course. No, it won't. If it assure of wins, then it is fair to have such courses.
1408  Economy / Economics / Re: When Will This War End? on: April 04, 2022, 09:11:34 PM
if a diplomatic agreement has not been reached, one of the two countries must give in, so that the war is over. but it's not easy for that. Like Putin, of course, he doesn't want to finish the war before he gets his wish. especially Ukraine, which mathematically lost, but persisted in defending its ideology. Until now there has been no news that states the bright spot of this war, is it waiting for one of them to go bankrupt, until the war ends?
The both countries are economically challenged right now. Although I do think that it is worse for Russia, because they have been sanctioned by some countries especially the US, and also their soldiers have also been losing as of recent to the Ukraine soldiers.

The recent news that I saw is that the Russian air attack are finding it difficult to penetrate Ukraine due to strong air defense, and that the Russian military have lost up to 18,000 of their soldiers. The painful part of this is that innocent people are losing their lives due to this war. So both countries should do anything possible to make sure that they bring peace. If they still continue with the war, lots of properties would be destroyed and innocent lives lost for no good reason.
Ukraine that wasn't that agressive with its decision have begun to strike back. So, this war is not gonna end in the short. Russia is the one that needs to take celebration. Already a big number of users have reached other countries surrounding as refugees. People haven't done anything wrong, so the sufferer must be the officials. Here the common man, women and children.
1409  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are Your Kids Aware Of Bitcoin? Teach Them. on: April 04, 2022, 05:41:52 PM
I am an uncle to 3 amazing boys ages 5, 8 and 13. They’re  all pretty well informed on crypto currencies and the blockchain. In my opinion, I think it’s easier to explain to children about crypto than fiat because the Trezor as a concept is quite visual for children to grasp.
I mean trying to explain the insanity of the federal reserve is probably harder to teach them. I’m very impressed with those boys, they’re so smart and already understand so much about finance.
A thirteen year old kid will be on the eighth grade in my country. An eighth grade student will be learning about the basics of math and science. Learning finance is not a simple thing, maybe visual learning will interest students towards it.

As per my understanding at this age they can be introduced to cryptocurrency, but very few get the real knowledge about it. At this age most of the kids will be much interested into gaming, so we can direct them towards play to earn games. This will surely interest them to earn and through that one can be made to understand what is bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.
1410  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: why more women to trade crypto? on: April 04, 2022, 12:53:56 AM
I don't think that statement holds any strength. Their app is available to all no matter who uses it. Women have been trading in stocks and cryptos for quite some time. Trading is gender neutral and no one enables or disables a particular gender from trading

I was also wondering how can we say that more women should do trading when we have no data to back the numbers. Do we have any data which can tell us how much percentage of traders are women or how many are men?

The centralized trading platform like binance (who have the KYC data) will never share these numbers while decentralized trading DEXes do not collect this information of gender.
There is no proper data available, so to know the right percentage of women into crypto. According to the survey taken in US, women are much into cryptocurrency. Majority are holders and never intend to sell in the short term. Each country have different data and we can't consider this to be precise, as the sample differs from the reality.

Survey: Nearly 1 in 3 women say they plan to buy crypto this year
1411  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is it better to have 5, 12 or even more coins? on: April 03, 2022, 10:01:20 PM
The portfolio doesn't want to be limited. It can be of any number of cryptocurrencies. Here the top 5 needs to be given importance, which means the value invested needs to be high against the rest of the holdings. Having limited coins or high number of altcoins is not at all an issue, because these days it is quite easy to manage the holdings with ease with the available applications.
1412  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: April 03, 2022, 05:17:40 PM
Once after the T20 match against Australia there is no match for Pakistan. As per schedule the next series is against West Indies during the month of June. After the series, Pakistan plays on the T20 World Cup matches. Pakistan have got a lot time to prepare themselves for the T20 World Cup. Some have mentioned the complete Australia isn't available in this series. When the incomplete squad can score 348 runs why can't the same team win the final ODI. So, those are just reasons and the reality is Pakistan did the best.
1413  Economy / Gambling / Re: Bitcoin-instant credit?? on: April 03, 2022, 04:19:20 PM
Does anyone know which sites deposit bitcoin instantly or even litecoin without a confirmation I’m sure you have to wait to withdraw that’s fine but at least credit it instantly?
Most casinos requires atleast 1-3 confirmations before your deposit reflect in your account, because its risky on their side to have an instant credit. But recently I experienced this on livecasino, I deposited BTC and even the transaction is not confirm yet, my BTC is instantly showing in my account.

In general, all casinos require at least one confirmation in order to fund your account, and I have never seen zero-confirmation deposits.
Perhaps livecasino's policy depends on the status of your account? If your account has a positive history of deposits, maybe that's why livecasino doesn't need to confirm your deposits anymore.

Zero confirmation isn't supported by the gambling platforms. On a single confirmation the deposit gets reflected on the wallet balance and can be used. I've experienced immediate deposit of ethereum and bitcoin reflected on the wallet balance in a much faster time when I was in losing streak and did deposit to continue my wager.

1415  Economy / Gambling / Re: Gambling Sites April Fool offers on: April 03, 2022, 09:37:47 AM
If they offer something special on this day, That will be another April fool. Imagine a casino offering a 500% deposit bonus on 1st April only. After making a deposit you got nothing. Whenever you ask them, they say it's an April fool. How that will look like? Their users can get angry and create scam accusations against them. So, Casinos don't joke. Casinos don't offer anything for this special day. But, You may get the regular deposit bonus. 
You have hit the mark. On this day, it is "dangerous" to carry out promotion for the casinos. As you said, any joke can be taken negatively and this can turn the players against the casino. It is better for gamling sites not to take risks and wait for other holidays, larger ones, to attract a new audience.
It is a big risk for the gambling sites to provide April Fool offers. Easter falls in this month, possibly we can expect some funny easter games getting added to the gambling sites with discounts. Already few gambling sites have announced some contests. So, this month is much about the Easter than April Fool.
1416  Economy / Economics / Re: Pay in rubles or have your gas shut off by April on: April 03, 2022, 09:01:38 AM
More discussion on India's trade with Russia following Rupee-Ruble Trade mechanism. Europe and America stands against the decision. Here none is to be blamed, everyone wants an opportunity to make use. Now it is the time for India and it is using the chance. America and European countries tie hands to fight Russia, just on the fact of holding power

Germany, Europe's biggest consumer of Russian gas which has halted certification of the new Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline from Russia because of the Ukraine crisis, could import gas from Britain, Denmark, Norway and the Netherlands via pipelines.

Germany's utility association BDEW has called on the government to come up with an emergency plan to prepare the country for disruptions to Russian gas supplies.

Norway's Equinor (EQNR.OL) said it is considering ways to produce more gas from its Norwegian fields during the upcoming summer in Europe, a season in which output is normally affected by maintenance.

Southern Europe can receive Azeri gas via the Trans Adriatic Pipeline to Italy and the Trans-Anatolian Natural Gas Pipeline (TANAP) through Turkey.

The United States will work to supply 15 billion cubic metres of liquefied natural gas (LNG) to the European Union this year, the transatlantic partners said last week.

Europe's options on Gas
European countries have got more other alternative, why don't they find a solution out of it. There is nothing to blame the countries benefiting out of Russia's trade plans to overcome sanctions.

Though this isn't a world war, the involvement of majority of the countries have taken place in an indirect manner. We've experienced crash ofethe market and bounce back connected to the war incidents. Through war the usage for which bitcoin is being innovated by Satoshi have come true.

Through the Russia Ukraine war what all have happened.

Increased adoption in the global market.
Acceptance of Bitcoin as donation.
People used bitcoin against the Sanctions.
New trade patterns have got open.

Fear, panic and emotions always gets connected with the buying of bitcoin, because the market is unpredictable. It can fall down or bounce high. In the article he have mentioned about all the possible outcomes of the market with relation to the technology taking the price to make new goals for the year.

On the other side more adoption is happening with bitcoin which makes it more progressive and assure of future growth. Whenever one consider bitcoin an investment, the focus should turn for the long term profiting. When one can follow this, then there is nothing to panic. More crypto events are scheduled for 2022 which too adds strength to the market.
1419  Economy / Gambling / Re: Gambling exploit (LEGAL) on: April 03, 2022, 12:33:41 AM

Hey i found a vulnerability in a gambling website that allows you to consistently win money.
No bs. With a bot $$$ 100k a day (can prove mathematically)
The problem is i need atleast 20k.

Lets use the dumbest logic, to make 100k a day you need 20k then why dont you reduce the target?
Why didnt you try to get $1,000 a day with $200? You do not even have $200? So try with $20 to gain $100.
Use your method with small amount first and collect you winning until you get $20k to hunt $100k a day.
Is it that hard to make it simple like this? if what you found does really work then it should work with any amount.
Right. Since he can turn 20,000$ into 100,000$ in a day (x5 profit), it shouldn't be difficult for him to start with a lower budget, because his balance would be growing x5 times every single day, what means he could achieve 20,000$ relatively fast by himself.

However, even if this method existed and worked, it's not a good idea to execute it for real, as it consists in taking advantage of a gambling platform illegaly, meaning the responsible for this can have his funds and account freezed immediately or face legal issues in worse case, depending how regulated the casino is and what personal informations the casino holds regards the gambler.
If there is real vulnerability, surely OP could've started to make money with this an opportunity. For now OP is in need for money to gamble and he finds the best way. It isn't anymore 2015-16 when more people believed in these kind of activities. As suggested OP could begin what he has got. Even if it is just $100 he can turn it to $500 in a day. What's the need of $20k and no newbies should fall for this.
1420  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Cryptocurrency will not save Russia from sanctions on: April 03, 2022, 12:25:18 AM
Slowly Russia is trying to come out of the sanctions through its friendly countries. As a beginning rupee- ruble trade mechanism is under development. How does the trade mechanism work
Quote
When an Indian bank is finalised, Russia will deposit ruble in it, while India will deposit rupees. A notional exchange rate (that determines how many rubles are equivalent to a rupee) will be arrived at by pegging it to an international currency, “most likely the dollar”

Similar trade mechanism is set up to import Iranian oil when the US imposed sanctions against that country. Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov visited China and have reached India to make talks. It looks like everything is successful and more friendly countries of Russia will be considered for the same.
