401  Economy / Speculation / Re: Did you sell off during the 21k price breach. on: January 21, 2023, 01:38:32 PM


So are we to expect any sudden drop down to 16k again on the price of bitcoin this year or we will going through with this current 20k to 21k mark.?

There is still a chance bitcoin will drop to $16k again, what is happening is more of a trap than a real bull run. But I will not sell my bitcoins at this price or higher because there is no guarantee bitcoin will fall back. The profit is also too small if anyone sells from now on, I think most people will wait until bitcoin hits ATH to start selling them.

I don't see anything wrong with selling Bitcoin above 21K due to the abnormal price pump of Bitcoin for a short time. Holding until ATH is a good strategy too but taking a profit on a sudden pump like this is good too because there's always a correction for every price action like this since impulse traders will surely take a profit when after they bought below 20K once the price stops moving above. The current price is already stagnant at 21K level which is a sign that bulls power is weakening. It's either we will experience accumulation and then pump or a quick correction will happen but I'm more on the correction scenario since there's no real big news backing this run.

Yes, there is nothing wrong if you sell for 21k, but today price went up to 22.8k and even reached 23k if you sold bitcoin yesterday, you made a profit, but now you will regret it. There is no guarantee bitcoin will turn back down, I have not seen any signs of the bulls weakening, as you say. If someone sold bitcoin yesterday, it would be a real pity.

I was thinking BTC was going to be on a down hill mostly until near end of 2023. Do you believe this is a bull trap or true recovery for next bull is now here?

I would be interested to see what you people think and why.

:3
I believe this is a price trap, as I believe history will repeat itself, bitcoin will only go up and reach ATH after the halving. Besides, along with the world economic situation has not improved much, so it is not possible to expect a bull market this year. I still expect bitcoin to fall back soon and possibly hit a new bottom, which would be a good thing.

Roma vs Fiorentina in the Italian League. I enjoyed a very nice game played by these two teams. Roma scored 1 goal in 40 minutes in this match. Fiorentina player got 1 red cards in 24 minutes. Due to which Fiorentina played such a bad game in the match.  In the match, the players of both teams played a lot of fouls. In the end, Roma won the match by 2 goals.

I expected Roma to win against Fiorentina and bet on Roma to win. I am happy because I won the money. But the match was not enjoyable. I expected an enjoyable match. Both teams committed a lot of fouls. However, Roma striker Dybala's performance was excellent. For Roma, Dybala scored two goals to help Roma earn three points. And both were assisted by Tammy Abraham.

I still see it 50% for Barcelona and Manchester United both to advance to next stage in the Europa League. Because while Barcelona are improving their performance Manchester United aren't just watching these days. Manchester United have made a big progress in the English Premier League recently and maybe it could be even a bigger one than Barcelona's.

However it is nice to see Barcelona starting to get over their problems against powerful teams. Maybe it was a Super Cup game rather than a La Liga one. But still both managers were eager to win that title.
Barcelona and Manchester united are unpredictable because they are becoming more powerful as the day goes by. This game will be tough,  I predict,  this game will come out in draws. I don't see any of the team that is stronger than the other.

You are right. Barcelona and Manchester United were weak teams at the start of the season. They could not consistently perform well. But now their performance is excellent. Both teams are strong now. And their performance has changed a lot. And so it is difficult to predict which team will win the match of Barcelona Balaam United. Both teams have equal chances of winning.

Now, if they are not going to bring changes then surely here we can expect worst end of this season with no place into top four and early exit from Champions League recently they have Gakpo which was good in world cup and expectations were high, but now it's all showing it's just overrated player even we can expect better in coming days, but they need to turn quickly before it's too late for them.
It's very difficult thing to change the mentality. I meant salah was nothing right now. The best formation of liverpool already gone and it's not keep struggling to get more and more lose. that's pretty much the same situation happened with chelsea and how can liverpool face real madrid if it's still in the worst performance like that? i know that the situation might change drastically.

Liverpool's performance is not stable. Their team is not weak. They have a strong enough squad. Despite having a lot of star players, they are not playing well. It seems their problem is tactical. Liverpool suffered a humiliating 3-0 defeat against Brighton in the last match. With such a fragile team, it is not possible to win the Champions League against experienced opponents like Real Madrid. Against Liverpool, we will see the dominance of Madrid.

These late winners are huge boost for big clubs. A lot of the time they found a way to score and pressure comes with results. Valencia did that today for Fenerbahçe. He's a top striker, 15 league goals in 15 games, 1 per game, great statistics. Scoring a winner in extra time is more precious of course.
Fenerbahçe could've lost two points today. I'm sure Galatasaray fans were devastated. They almost got whole psychological advantage. Still a long way to go though.
It is a great boost for Fenebahce morale yes but the problem is that Galatasaray is leading the way with 4 points advantage and this year they look like they have found the missing consistency of the other years.I think that it will be a difficult battle for both teams as 4 points are nothing,the team which will be more consistent and will not look to the result of the other team but will try to win every game most likely will be Superlig Champions during this season.The Superlig will be played between Galatasaray and Fenerbahce,the other teams are a bit left behind and I don't think there is enough room left for them to change things around considering the form of the two teams at the top of the standings.

I would like to say that both Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray have performed very well this season. Fenerbahçe is four points behind Galatasaray and second in the table. But I don't see any way to say Fenerbahçe is a weak team. They are currently the top scorers in the Super League. They scored 44 goals in 18 matches. And so the fight for the title at Fenerbahçe looks set to continue until the last match of the season.

Bangladesh Premier League 13th Match has started today. Dhaka Dominators vs Sylhet Strikers these two teams participated in the game today. Dhaka Dominators won the toss and came to bat. Scored 106 runs in 17 overs. But so far Dhaka Dominators have lost 5 wickets. Sylhet  Strikers have started to perform well. It seems that the batsmen of Dhaka Dominators are under a lot of pressure.
Dhaka Dominators having not good performance in batting and able to score only 128 runs which were no enough for stopping Sylhet Strikers to chase this target and have won in this match which give them good lead at the top of the league table with 5 wins from 5 matches and now having lead of four points from second spotted FORTUNE BARISHAL which is having one match in hand.

In today match Dhaka won the toss and select to bat first which was not good decision by their captain because they lost quick wickets and not batsman able to stay at the crease captain Nasser Hussain done good batting at the end, and they were able to reach at the score of 128 but after doing this score their bowlers done good job and not allowed Sylhet Strikers to play freely but at the end Thisara Perera hits 21 from 11 balls and steal 2 points for his team in last 20th over of the game.
Sylhet defeated Dhaka Dominators by 5 wickets today with 4 balls in hand and got their fifth win in a row. Earlier, Dhaka Dominators managed to score 128 runs for 7 wickets. Imad Asim played a great ball for Sylhet.  Imad Asim collected 3 wickets for just 20 runs. Nazmul Islam Md Amir and Rubel Hossain also took 1 wicket each. Thanks and congratulations to Bangladesh boss Mashrafe Bin Mortaza for Sylhet team winning all 5 matches.
By this match Sylhet strikers confirmed their fifth match and standing on top in the point table of BPL with 10 point. In this Season of BPL the performance of Sylhet strikers is always suitable to go ahead from the beginning. Seeing as they have experienced players like Mushfiqur Rahim and Mohammad Harish ,Thisara Perera  and a good captain like Mashrafe Bin Murtaza to guide their team, I think their win was already confirmed. And I also think that Sylhet Strikers have a chance to become champions of this year's BPL even if Mashrafe Bin Mortaza's team is looking good.

Sylhet strikers are at the top of the table with 10 points from 5 matches. They are playing well in every match. Even the players of Sylhet strikers are performing well in both batting and bowling. Also Sylhet strikers captain Mashrafe is very experienced. And with the help of a great captain Sylhet players are able to perform better. I would say Mashrafe is the main hero behind Sylhet's outstanding performance.

Liverpool and Chelsea were originally and are still attached as a top 4 subscription team, now they have to work hard to get back to that position.
If Liverpool and Chelsea continue their bad forms like they are doing, they will end this season with rankings lower than the fourth one. It will give Newcastle United another great chance to become another powerful club in top four of this league.
A very unfortunate thing if it does happen for Liverpool and Chelsea. But Chelsea and Liverpool will try not to end the season in a low position like their current position. The point difference with the current fifth-placed team is also not far when compared to the number of remaining matches this season.
It is possible that starting next week they will return to their usual form of winning and entertaining.
As for Newcastle having a huge amount of money thanks to the transfer of ownership impacting their current form, Manchester City seem to have had an early taste of it.

I have to say that compared to Chelsea and Liverpool, Newcastle United have been playing really consistent football after that Saudi Arabian takeover. Liverpool and Chelsea are currently in ninth and 10th position respectively with both of them having 28 points and winning only eight games. This is really unacceptable from top tier teams like Chelsea and Liverpool who are expected to be the contenders for the league title.

The Getafe vs Espanyol match was almost over at half time but both sides scored 1-1.  The match has been hard fought so far with both teams trying hard to score but not succeeding as the first half doesn't look like there could be more goals. But meanwhile, Getafe's performance looks a bit better and they might be able to beat Espanyol. Let's see what happens at the last moment what do you think? which team is potential for winning?
The match already ended with espanyol was winning the game. After the first half and juan was adding more goals for espanyol. Again and again the team with less domination in the la liga has been winning the match again. That proves that how dominant the team didn't make it can win the match easily. Espanyol was feeling so difficult caused by getafe has been dominating the match. It seems like that the team with low ball possession was in demand right now. After seeing the result from the match between getafe against espanyol and it can be said that if ball possession was making the team forget if it must be consistent to attack and defense.

The match was really interesting and both teams had created a lot of chances. But I have to say the first goal from Espanyol was really dumb and came from a very bad mistake from both the defender and the goalkeeper of Getafe. The goal from Getafe was absolutely a blender though. That was a great long shot taken outside of the box. And the winning goal scored by Espanyol was also really good. That was a classy goal in my opinion. Otherwise, if you want was just shooting from out of the box in this match.
411  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bottom of the Bear Market...let's accumulate!! on: January 16, 2023, 12:45:36 PM


Who is accumulating and how much are you hoping to add to your stash this year?

I'm still accumulating and I'm not happy when bitcoin goes up and holds above $20k. People are getting very excited to see bitcoin go up because people bought at a higher price, and they don't want to hold any longer. But I like the bitcoin price as low as possible to be able to buy it cheaply. For 20k dollars, I would buy only one bitcoin at the current price, but if bitcoin prices 10k, I can buy two bitcoins. I hope bitcoin will crash again.
412  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will Btc get to $12k or $10k on: January 16, 2023, 12:39:16 PM
All the callers, saying Bitcoin will get to $12k $10k or below, we haven't see $14k so far, is $15.4k the last bottom for btc or we are still going to see more dump??

this should be a mini pump
because Btc is resting at a critical supply zone. If it breaks and close above it, we may not see 12k. If not 12k here we come

Who are those callers, are they saints, or do they have a crystal ball? If they don't have those then they are just like us. They make predictions based on emotions or maybe are more deliberately manipulating the market. Don't invest by believing someone's call online, analyze yourself, maybe our analysis is wrong but their analysis is not necessarily correct.
413  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: FTX drama stressing people for no reason | How to stay neutral on: January 15, 2023, 04:32:24 PM
It's hard to stay neutral when you see how many projects are connected with FTX. Actually, i don't care about this exchange as it is, but red charts makes me feel sad usually

If you don't leave your coins and don't lose money on them, then there's no reason for you to be upset about the demise of FTX. I've never used FTX so even if it crashes it doesn't affect me. Your portfolio loses value because you have invested too much in altcoins or you do not use idle money to invest. Crypto winter is bound to happen whether FTX crashes or not, you didn't prepare well for it.
414  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin can be banned or stopped by governments on: January 15, 2023, 04:27:52 PM
We are not the government, so we can't know exactly if they can ban bitcoin, but some governments have tried to ban bitcoin in the past but still failed and faced a lot of difficulties. So it can be said that banning bitcoin is very difficult.
But today, governments are gradually accepting bitcoin more because they have seen benefits from it, and they are setting regulations for it instead of banning it outright.




415  Economy / Speculation / Re: what caused bitcoin to go up this january 2023 on: January 14, 2023, 04:39:51 PM
Fed rate hikes have been the main driver of the bear market, but as the market prices them in, they are starting to lose their impact. It is likely that we have another leg down to the $13K mark, but it is not certain. Although the price will not exceed its previous all-time high as usually happens when halving hasn't happened, 2024-25 will be big years for the bull market

If the Fed does not raise interest rates, there is no inflation, then bitcoin will still enter the winter of 2022. Therefore, it is incorrect to say that falling inflation is the cause of this increase. This is the second time in a row that inflation has fallen, but the last time bitcoin was no better. Bitcoin is a pump and dump market, so it is normal for bitcoin to spike or drop without stopping.

According to website sources for bitcoin adoption statistics have increased since 2019 even though the Nigerian government has not legalized bitcoin in the country for any purpose, so it is not surprising that after the country enacted a new law for bitcoin licensing the statistics of bitcoin users in Negeria are increasing.


source : statista.com

I appreciate that he has contributed to the growth of bitcoin adoption in his country, looking forward to more and more businesses adding the option of accepting bitcoin payments in every market or paying for services and salaries.


I heard that Nigeria's currency, Naira, is seriously depreciating, so I wouldn't be surprised when people start using bitcoin instead. If the Nigerian government doesn't figure out how to fix their economy soon, not even bitcoin can make their people better off. I appreciate Op's action, but honestly, the themes are too similar and it's repetitive.

Hmm so Pakistan ended their home season with no series win? This must be some kind of record.
Lost test series against Aussie
Lost T-20 series against Poms. 3-nil  test series against the same opponent
Draw test series against Kiwis, followed by ODI loss.
I'm missing something or they won any series, did they play any white ball cricket against Australia?
Yes they played ODI series against Australia and that's there only home series win in last year. Pakistan was favorite for WTC final as they were scheduled to play against Australia, England and New Zealand at home and rest is history. It was first time that Pakistan is whitewashed at home in test series. Whats next? I can see Babar losing Captaincy in Test format and Sarfraz taking over Test Captaincy.

https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/australia-in-pakistan-2021-22-1288300/pakistan-vs-australia-3rd-odi-1288315/full-scorecard

Pakistan did play test cricket against Australia in March. Australia won that series as well. 1-0 was the score. Pakistan does not have too many achievements in 2022. A big reason for that is Pakistan not being able to perform consistently and depending on certain players too much. It is going to take a little time for Pakistan to fix these problems. But I believe that Pakistan will be able to eventually fix those problems.

Crypto aka shitcoins should be banned, Bitcoin must not.

This depends a little bit if all words are independent. If yes the will be 24! = 620.448.401.733.239.439.360.000 permutations of the words. Assuming that you computer can check 1 billion permutations per second (which is is way too optimistic as this would assume that a signature / public key could be computed within one clock cycle which he can't) this would mean that your computer still would need 620.448.401.733.239 seconds which is 19674289 (19.6 million) years as the absolut minor / lower bound. This estimation however does not take into account technological breakthroughs in computing hardware which could very well happen in that time frame (:


Nobody's banning anything. Shitcoins deserve to survive as much as bitcoin. In fact some shitcoins are as good as bitcoin, if not more. They aren't many but there are a few. And once you ban every shitcoin in existence you are also banning the new tech from emerging. Bitcoin don't need that kind of artificial monopoly. Bitcoin is and will always be the best as long as it updates itself with the new tech as it did before with segwit.

No altcoin can be as good as bitcoin, but there is no reason to ban altcoins. Altcoins are not as good as bitcoin, but crypto is an investment market and altcoins offer much better returns than bitcoin. Only people who don't profit from altcoins support banning them, they are just as jealous as the bitcoin haters out there.
419  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: January 13, 2023, 06:50:09 PM
The Champions League is nothing like the Bundesliga or the Europa League. Frankfurt had better be ready for a much bigger and more difficult matchup against Napoli. Matches aren't played on paper of course. I'm aware of how big threat Frankfurt are to Napoli also. But I would like to remind you of another fact that Frankfurt had a really big difficulty in qualifying for last 16 round. They managed to do this after the results of last group matches. They lost five points against Tottenham and lost to Sporting also.

Napoli are going to be even a more challenging team to defeat for Frankfurt. Especially if Napoli keep a good form in the Serie A until the first leg then Frankfurt had better focus on their defending especially. Because Napoli can easily be unstoppable in offense while they are in-form.

Napoli versus Frankfurt is going to be played on the 22nd of February if I am not wrong. That is still quite a long way away. There can be a lot that can happen during that time period. There is no doubt that Napoli are playing well at the moment. However, that might not be the case at that point in time. In my opinion, if I had been a betting man, I would have been almost certain that Napoli would win against Frankfurt. Nevertheless, it is hard for me to predict how both of these teams will perform in the future. As of now, I would say that Napoli is the better team.

On the other hand, I always download the latest version of Electrum to use and so far I haven't had any problems with either the old or new versions of Electrum. I have also read about his unfortunate incident, what the real cause is only he knows best, but I dare say it was his fault and not Electrum's. Electrum is arguably the most popular hot wallet in use to date, just because of a few cases of attacks we assume it's the wallet's fault. That is not correct, all attacks are largely due to user behavior.
All the cases that happened to Electrum were due to user error from inaccuracy or carelessness in the management of seed phrases, if someone blames the wallet application then all the current user funds have been in trouble because hackers will target theft from the highest fund wallet, so the latest case that happened to julerz will be be a valuable experience for all of us to increase the security factor and update any information from the official web.

I don't think he installed a rogue app, maybe his computer is infected with a virus because he doesn't use any anti-virus software. While it may not be able to completely prevent all viruses, it will work for some. I have seen that he has switched to Linux, which should be better for him; in the end, this is the user's fault, not the wallet's.
