After having two good innings in Rawalpindi today, Fakhar Zaman was fail to score big runs but Imam and Babar both done good job which brings Pakistan to the target of 287 which was enough for them to clinch match with in last overs bowlers done good job.

The performance of Pakistan bowlers in this match was very good. Pakistan was able to win because of the good performance of the bowlers. But we did not see good bowling from Pakistan bowlers in the first two matches. However, I am happy because Pakistan won the series. This group is quite strong. But their main weakness is that the team players cannot maintain consistency. The overall performance of this team always depends on certain players.

People are looking forward to and waiting for the halving event to welcome another bull season. But if that doesn't happen, history is changed, that would be an interesting thing. The story of bitcoin collapse, dead bitcoin will spread in the market, and people will start panicking, pessimistic...It's really a situation that I believe a lot of people haven't thought of because they're all daydreaming about bitcoin hitting ATH after the halving, no one has thought of that negative yet.

I am not as optimistic as OP, my prediction is that we will enter the bull season in 2025, and bitcoin will reach ATH in the last quarter of 2025, just like previous cycles, and we will also have a bear season at the end of that year. I still believe the 4-year history repeats itself, the bull season will only come one year after the halving, i.e. 2025.
104  Economy / Speculation / Re: does the increasing number of altcoins have a negative impact on the price btc on: May 03, 2023, 11:22:14 PM
Absolutely not, and to be honest most of altcoins die after few months of launch. At the beginning, they create a HYPE to attract sellers specifically the greedy and beginners, afterward they pump their coins with fake volume and this bull run always last few hours after that the price decreases significantly and goes to 0. In fact, Bitcoin is not negatively affected by the number of altcoins, due to the majority of traders and investors especially the expert ones and whales don’t take the risk and give attention to these dead and scam coins. In fact, the lifespan of 90% of altcoins is temporary , they can last only few months.

I think on the contrary, if there weren't so many altcoins created, people would focus mainly on bitcoin, and that would make bitcoin more valuable. Bitcoin is experiencing increased competition from altcoins, so being hit is inevitable. Think most newbies don't want to invest in bitcoin, they just invest in altcoins to get rich quick. But if all newcomers invest in bitcoin, causing demand to increase, then bitcoin will grow even more.

Toulouse vs Lens
The winning result from Monaco has been makes Lens is very confident to faced this match and they have good opportunities to wided their points gap with the team below them Monaco but Toulouse too has been change became an tough team recently and their mentally were strong because they want to avoid relegation zone and besides that Toulouse has just made a history with beat Nantes in France cup and it makes they are the champion of 2023 for this competition
This is hard match for Lens and i know from positions Toulouse is far below them but Toulouse recent performance makes me doubt Lens can able to beat this team today especially Lens will not playing with full team because i saw some of players got injured such as Deiver Machado and Salis Abdul Samed who got suspension after received red card from the match against PSG and although Lens is the favourite but i was thinking Toulouse will not easily to beat and probably today Toulouse can surprising us and stole 1 point from this match and draw option has high odds @3.90
In this match, Lens needs full points to keep the distance from Marseille, which is 4 points behind. that means, Lens will aim to win over the home team. that way, Lens is only 1 point away from Marseille if he wins this match. the following week, Lens will meet against Marseille. the scenario is, Franck Haise will continue to try to bring his team to win the remaining match after match to chase an automatic ticket to the Champions League. especially in the previous week, Lens was able to overthrow AS Monaco with a landslide score of 3-0.
Meaning, Lens is in high confidence to come up with a slick performance. as for several injured players such as Wuilker, Jimmy Cabot, and Salis Andul Samed, it seems that it will not have a serious impact on their performance. after all, during the match against Monaco, these players were also absent in that match. for Deiver Machado, it looks like he has no problems with injuries and will most likely start this game.
As for Toulouse, the home team just won the Coupe de France final win over Nantes last Saturday. with this result, it seems that Toulouse has a strong drive and motivation to appear and provide fierce resistance to Lens in this match. so, it looks like the match will take place quite tough. referring to the available odds, it looks like betting on Lens is the ideal choice with odds @1.67. but to avoid risk I will bet on under 3 goals. I guess, the more ideal option.

There is basically no other option for Lens but to win. I don't think they can afford to lose this match or even draw. At the very least, they will need to do that in order to finish in second place. If they win this match they will only have a difference of one point with the team that is ahead of them. So with a win, it looks very likely for them to compete very closely for the second position. I still doubt that they will actually be able to finish in the second position. The reason for this is that Marseille has been playing really well lately.

Real Madrid's midfield is very strong. Every player in the midfield is talented and experienced. Madrid's strong performance has a lot to do with their midfielders. If Luka Modric is sidelined for the match against Manchester City, Madrid does not have a suitable replacement. Apart from Luka Modric, Ancelotti has to develop his match strategy. If the match strategy is good, maybe the Madrid team will not miss Modrich during the match.
I have no idea why many people keep mentioning Luka Modric, this guy is really overrated.
He's already old, you can see his performance isn't that good anymore like the last year. Real Madrid currently depends on Kroos and Valverde, there's no other player has stable performance like both of them. Ancelotti will put a big hope to Camavinga and Tchouameni for playing this big match, since it looks like a gambling, I don't really believe they will beat Manchester City.
Manchester City has De Bruyne, Gundongan, Rodri and Silva, four of them are in the same level like Kroos and Valverde.

I never thought Luka Modric was overrated. He is an excellent player. He is one of the key players in the Real Madrid squad. Croatia also performed well in the World Cup. And thanks to Luka Modric, Croatia's performance was steady. I don't think this player is overrated at all. However, his performance has slightly deteriorated compared to last season. Because he is now 37 years old. Yet the world has few experienced midfielders like Luka Modric.

I first heard about this wallet, although it is very cheap, there is no guarantee that your bitcoins will be safe when stored with Jade wallet. Meanwhile, we already have good reputation wallets like Trezor or Ledger, they are certified as secure for our bitcoins. Although they cost more, it guarantees the safety of our bitcoins. If you are really serious about your bitcoin, don't be afraid to spend a few tens of dollars for a better and more secure wallet, I think everything has its price, nothing cheap but good.

...

Honestly, luck is way more important in crypto trading, mining etc.

Perhaps many people will disagree on this, but I find it absolutely true. Sometimes you have all the knowledge and experience, but you won't make any money if you are not lucky enough. But that said, we don't need knowledge or experience, because it will help us limit losses and avoid pitfalls in the market.

Bitcoin has become expensive, and finding free bitcoins from the faucet these days wastes time. To make it more practical for people who want to own bitcoin, the only way is to try to make money and use the money to buy it. Don't get delusional about earning free bitcoins from the faucet without doing anything.
110  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Where is your stand as a Bitcoin holder. on: April 29, 2023, 11:41:46 PM
I've seen it before, but most people like to keep their privacy about the amount of bitcoins they own, some of them also try to hide that they own bitcoins at all.

For me, I do not find myself in this category because I only hold a small amount of Bitcoin. I earn bitcoins through my work, but I have to cover my family's expenses, so I cannot hold a large amount.

I'm on this list, but I also want to keep it a secret and want to be private, I don't like showing off to others that I hold bitcoins. For me, letting people know about my wealth is taboo, not only with bitcoin but all other valuable assets. Showing off will sometimes become a habit, as well as endangering yourself or your loved ones.
111  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why gambling and mixing called bad actors in bitcoin on: April 29, 2023, 11:32:58 PM
Bitcoin mixer enhances privacy and resists attacks.
It is up to the laws of each country to determine if gambling is illegal.
Bitcoin in the case of gambling is also just a means to satisfy the desire to gamble and make money. Bitcoin in this case is not considered bad as the dollar or any FIAT is being used for gambling all over the world.
Bitcoin is only used as a tool for gambling and is not directly involved with the gambling industry.
Bitcoin is still Bitcoin, not regulated by anyone. it's just a payment option that is easier and more private.
Gambling sites that support Bitcoin are also increasingly appearing.

and about Bitcoin mixing, the last few months have been quite excited when Chipmixer was shut down because it was involved in money laundering crimes.
No wonder they are thirsty to be shut down, because they facilitate criminal acts.
Not all Bitcoin mixing sites do this practice, Many mixing sites still survive today.

Yes, bitcoin is a currency, a payment method, casinos have the right to add it to their form of payment, no one can ban them, and it has nothing to do with gambling.

As for mixers, you are right, not all mixers cater to criminals, what is going viral out there is just because bitcoin haters are spreading false information. Bitcoin gives privacy, and mixers make us more private.

I think Milan is the favorite team in this match. I checked the results of past matches of Roma vs Milan. Milan's past record against Roma is very good. In the last 5 matches, Milan won three matches and drew two matches. I believe AC Milan will win this match if they give their full effort. But Milan will probably perform a bit more cautiously now. Because they don't want any of their players to face injury before the Champions League match. The match will certainly be competitive. Mourinho will definitely try to qualify for the Champions League.
Ac milan is at a pretty good point in this match where they have a target of getting 3 points at the olimpico stadium. one of ac milan best form is with leao improved performance in recent times which makes me sure they can overcome roma in tomorrow game.
it's not easy for ac milan to beat roma at home but with the impressive stats in their encounter i think ac milan will be motivated to do it again. these two teams are both aiming for full points to strengthen their ranking position this week.

AC Milan and Roma are level on the points table with both. And so this match is very important to grab the fourth place in the table. There is no doubt that Milan is in a strong position now. But let's not forget that Roma coach Mourinho is very experienced. And while Roma are short of star players, Mourinho has been able to stabilize this team. I would say if Mourinho's match strategy is good. And if the Roma players don't make any big mistakes in the match then I consider Roma as the favorite in this match.

Surprising news came from one of Real Madrid's veteran midfielders, namely Luka Modric, who is reportedly suffering from a hamstring injury and it can be confirmed that he will be out for the next two weeks. This is clearly a loss for Real Madrid at the same time they will face Manchester City in the first leg of the Champions League semifinals.

Ancelotti is certainly very confused because he lost one of his key players to face Manchester City later and it seems likely that Dani Ceballos will replace Luka Modric's position. But Real Madrid hopes that before the match starts Luka Modric can quickly recover from the injury he is currently experiencing. We are still waiting for further news and maybe this will be good news for Pep Guardiola if Luka Modric really cannot strengthen Real Madrid in the first leg later.

Without a doubt this is a terrible blow against Real Madrid, even with their full squad Manchester City was already the favorite, now that they are losing one of their key pieces then Real Madrid is going to face a very difficult match, now they may have other good players on their roster but they will lack the chemistry Modric already had with he rest of the players, all in all Real Madrid needs to do their best to tie the first leg or at least not lose in a disastrous way so they can have a chance once Modric recovers.
If Luka Modrich is injured and cannot play against Manchester City, it will be a big bad news for Real Madrid. Luka Modrich is the most important midfielder in Real Madrid's squad. He is an amazing player. Ancelotti desperately needs Luka Modric to strengthen the forward's link with the team's midfield. Without Luka Modrich or Benzema in the squad, Madrid's overall performance slows down a bit. The match against Manchester City is two weeks away. Hopefully Luka Modric will recover in the meantime.
The combination of Toni Kroos and Valverde is believe to be able to cover Luka Modric's contribution, if he is completely absent in the semifinals of the Champions League this season.
In my opinion, coach Carlo Ancelotti's dependence on Modric is not what we imagine, coach Ancelotti already understands the situation of his players, moreover Luka Modric is already 37 years old.
This will be a good opportunity for the oppose team, Manchester City

Real Madrid's midfield is very strong. Every player in the midfield is talented and experienced. Madrid's strong performance has a lot to do with their midfielders. If Luka Modric is sidelined for the match against Manchester City, Madrid does not have a suitable replacement. Apart from Luka Modric, Ancelotti has to develop his match strategy.

Considering the overall performance, which four teams do you think will eventually qualify for the IPL?
Aside from top 4 at the moment, teams such as kkr, Punjab, RCB has still got chance to qualify while I pretty much consider Delhi and Hyderabad to be out already, their performance have been real poor.

I don't see the possibility of Delhi Capitals and Sunrisers Hyderabad finishing in the top four of the table. Also, the chances of Bengaluru, Kolkata, and Mumbai are also very low. Kolkata won only 3 out of 8 matches. On the other hand, Chennai has won 5 out of 8 matches. Kolkata will have to win all the upcoming matches if they want to finish in the top four of the table. Kolkata is also far behind in net run rate. They have to win a few matches by a big margin.
115  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: April 28, 2023, 05:44:36 PM
Upcoming next games AS Roma vs AC Milan, current standing both team have the same points and AC Milan managed above standing position than AS Roma have goal difference. Opportunity for AS Roma back to top fourth position and get back Champion League spot standing on next games if success defeating AC Milan,  become second chance for AS Roma after losing from Atalanta last game and their current standing dropped from Champion League spot.

All standings team position change after Juventus get back their cut off points, right now have three team for getting last space for Champion League ticket between AC Milan, AS Roma and Inter Milan keep compete until last game in Serie A.
To be honest, this is a difficult match for me to determine which team will win, because AS Roma and Milan seem to have the same quality. Also, the odds for AS Roma and Milan are the same @ 2.75, at least this proves that this match can happen any result which means, there is no definite favorite to get three points.
Also, in their first match of the season or in their first meeting of the season, they only got a 2-2 draw and maybe a draw could happen again. But yes, if I consider Milan's quality when consistently beating Napoli, then of course Milan still has a chance to win in this match but again, that is of course not certain.

I think Milan is the favorite team in this match. I checked the results of past matches of Roma vs Milan. Milan's past record against Roma is very good. In the last 5 matches, Milan won three matches and drew two matches. I believe AC Milan will win this match if they give their full effort. But Milan will probably perform a bit more cautiously now.

Real Madrid's match against Almeria will be a goal feast for Real Madrid, yes because their opponent this time is relatively easy because in terms of ability and strong players, it is also far from Almeria and Real Madrid, if Real Madrid can't score many goals in this match would be very disappointing.
Even though Real Madrid and Almeria are not evenly matched in terms of strength, I don't think Real Madrid will also score a goal feast in that game, because Real Madrid is not so focused on La Liga for the rest of the season. But I'm also sure that Real Madrid will win the match at home, but I also wouldn't be surprised if the result is a draw or defeat for Real Madrid. Because Almeria has also beaten big teams like Barcelona this season even though Almeria is currently ranked 15th in the La Liga standings.

Real Madrid is definitely favorites against Almeria. Still, I can't say that Almeria has no chance of winning. Because in the last match, we saw Real Madrid lose 4-2 against Girona. Their performance was not very good. However, Benzema was not in the squad against Girona. Benzema will be in the squad against Almeria. It is also Madrid's home match. Madrid is undoubtedly the favorite in this match. However, they will have to play very carefully if they want to earn the full 3 points.

Forget about the highest IPL total, tell me can Punjab Kings chase this score? I think this is an almost impossible task for the Punjab Kings to chase when they are 50-2 in almost 5 overs. The required run rate is 14.4 and they need to maintain it for the next 15 overs which is next to impossible.

Coming back to the highest totals in IPL, here is something interesting.



So this is second highest total in IPL and highest by LSG. Apart from KL, all batsmen of LSG did a great job today. All bowlers of PBKS were smashed by LSG batting. Best bowling figures in PBKS are of Chahar 4/0/29/0 rest all bowlers were brutally smashed by strong LSG batting today. At the moment win probability is totally with LSG as PBKS need 176 of 68 balls.

Punjab Kings are not batting to win today's match. They want to reduce the run gap with LSG. Punjab knows very well that they cannot win by batting at a target of 257 runs. Moreover, they lost the wickets of two openers Prabhsimran Singh and Shikhar Dhawan at the beginning of the innings. The Punjab team collected 106 runs in 11 overs. I guess Punjab will collect like 200 runs today. Punjab will be defeated today by a margin of 50-60 runs.

Today strasbourg will be facing lyon at home, they are close to the relegation zone so any wasted points today might allow brest and nantes to pass them, their game will be tough since lyon also has to win in order to get close to the top five lyon is in a great shape recently despite the last loss against marseille so i don't think they will lose, both teams has a great attack so btts might be a good bet.
The Marseille team managed to put up a remarkable performance against Lyons. The team's attacking players are showing great improvement. However, the Lyon team tried to equalize the match, but the outstanding performance of the Marseille team's defense resulted in the Lyon losing the match.

It was a very enjoyable match. Lyon team had 61% of the ball possession but they attacked less. On the other hand, from the beginning of the match, Marseille played attacking strategy in this match. Marseille had a total of 14 shots with just 39% ball possession. Where Lyon players made only 7 shots. Marseille deserved to win this match. Marseille's performance was much better than Lyon's.

I am present in crypto space years ago and I have witnessed two bear market, and I couldn't take advantage of one because of the condition that I was into at the time, but I heard about every good and bad things about crypto.

But I am curious about something and I will like to ask you old Bitcoin OG on here .

Why is it that bad news always comes in a bear market and when we are in a bull market, all bad news about Bitcoin vanished? Are they doing this on purpose? It's always the bear market, after halving everything will disappear and some bans will be lifted, and so on...

Are we been played? Are these people toying with us, knowing that crypto will work but let's scare the hell out of them and take advantage of the fear? I can't come up with anything that makes more sense than this.

That's how the sharks manipulate the market, after they make a profit during the bull season, the down season will come, and that's when the sharks go shopping, and they always want to buy cheap. To me, the crypto market is a free market, so it will be manipulated, and every collapse is planned, and just waiting for the right day, they will trigger it all. Honestly, I would do the same if I had the money because it's the easiest way to make money in this market.
