881  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How can i earn a passive income with Altcoins? on: June 06, 2022, 02:59:01 PM
... But i could make a passive income with altcoins (doesn't need to be a monthly income every month; but perhaps ~60$/month) with a one time investment. Those earnings i could swap regulary to BTC...

Any passive income with altcoins involves primarily staking. But such passive earnings are associated with the risks of transferring your coins to other platforms, which can lead to their complete loss. In addition, the altcoin price may depreciate and the profit received from staking does not compensate for the loss thus obtained.

In a bear market like now, I think it's better to stake than hold and do nothing, the market hasn't recovered quickly so it's perfectly appropriate to stake now. All are risky so even holding so staking is a way to effectively increase the number of coins.

I think England has a very good chance of winning this match now. At least the odds look better compared to how they have started the innings. But the first session the next day is going to be very crucial for both teams I think. That period is going to be the decider of the match in my opinion. If New Zealand can get some quick wickets, they will be able to win the match but I think England has a lot of time and there will play really carefully so that they can win the match.
Looks so.. At this point, I would say that England has a 75% chance of winning this match. For New Zealand it is going to be hard, but not impossible if Kyle Jamieson and Trent Boult manages to get a couple of quick wickets. As I pointed out, England is having a very long tail for this match. Even the fall of one wicket in the first few overs will put them under a lot of pressure. However at this point, they are batting sensibly. Joe Root is scoring the runs, while Ben Foakes is playing defensively and engaging in mind games against the Kiwi bowlers.

England currently needs 60 runs to win. I think it is not going to be hard at all if they just don't lose wickets. But we all know that at the start of the day almost anything can happen. Joe Root was playing very well yesterday and I believe he will be able to continue. I believe he has to be there at the end of the innings if they want to win.


I would still say that the chances of both winning this match are equal. Because in New Zealand's batting we saw that after breaking the partnership of Daryl Mitchell and Tom Blundell, New Zealand was able to collect only 34 runs. Daryl Mitchell was dismissed for 251 and New Zealand's innings ended at 285. I don't think England can win today if Root and Foakes are out early in the day. There is no reason for New Zealand bowlers to feel weak.

Yes, I also agree but the New Zealand bowlers will have to put pressure on both the batsmen that are in the middle right now. And I don't think England is going to be under pressure because they have all the time in the world to score the remaining 60 runs.

Day 3 has ended just now. England need 61 more runs to win the match. They have 5 wickets in hand. The match is completely in favour of England team now. But unexpected things may happen tomorrow. Because, the first session is very difficult for the batsmen in this pitch. We have seen quick wicket fall in the first session every day. Joe Root and Ben Foakes need to play carefully in the first session of tomorrow to win the match.

With such conditions where pace bowlers are being favored, scoring another 61 runs is definitely not going to be easy. If Ben Stokes was there, then I would have said that England would definitely win the match. But Jamieson got him a few overs before the close of 3rd day's play. Ben Foakes is the last recognized batsmen in the playing XI, and after him the lower order starts with Matthew Potts and Jack Leach. And after them, we have genuine tailenders such as James Anderson and Matt Parkinson. Not going to be easy for England.

I think England has a very good chance of winning this match now. At least the odds look better compared to how they have started the innings. But the first session the next day is going to be very crucial for both teams I think. That period is going to be the decider of the match in my opinion. If New Zealand can get some quick wickets, they will be able to win the match but I think England has a lot of time and there will play really carefully so that they can win the match.

It's common everywhere - no one give much importance to women cricket teams - there is small news at the end of the bulletin which tells what are achievements of women players. There are hardly any spectator in the field when there is woman match going on.

That is definitely not true, at least in England and Australia. Look at the viewership figures for the last season of WBBL and W100, and you will notice this. And even in South Asian nations such as India and Sri Lanka, the attitude is changing. I will give you some stats. The cumulative audience for WBBL 2021 was 5.36 million, which is comparable for BBL2021. In Australia, the WBBL is now the fourth most-watched local league (only the BBL, AFL and NRL are ahead of the WBBL as of now). According to Cricket Australia, women’s international cricket viewership also increased by 400% during the last four years.

In England and Australia, people are a lot more concerned and interested in women's cricket which is absolutely not the case in Southeast Asian countries. Women's cricket is not as popular as men's cricket here. A lot of times the achievement of women in cricket is generally overshadowed by the achievement of men in cricket. A big reason for that to happen is that the cricket boards in these countries generally don't worry too much about women's cricket as they do about men.

Bears are not something new in the market, they come and go so when a bear market occurs, be patient and don't panic. When the bear market arrives, we may be sad and disappointed that our asset portfolio will shrink somewhat, but instead of hating it, let's take advantage of it and turn it into an investment opportunity with low price high discount.
886  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Should newbies Invest in new Projects on: June 05, 2022, 02:45:26 AM
OP Are you really planning to invest in a new project? We have Bitcoin,Why not prioritize bitcoin or at least some other top coin?  As for what is on your mind,Try not to easily believe in new projects, you must also understand the level of risk and don't just think about short-term gains. I don't have much to say about the new project as you mentioned,but it's clear that I would recommend bitcoin!
Bitcoin is the best choice for newbies, it helps newbies avoid the risk of losing money when they are new to the market.  Everytime I recommend cryptocurrency to anyone, my top recommendation is also bitcoin. Not to mention we have a lot of good options with the money available so no need for a new project right now.
887  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Its time to buy - end of bear market incoming on: June 05, 2022, 02:27:09 AM
I am also sure that the bear market will end soon, this can be seen from the price of Bitcoin that will not drop below $ 30k, the volume of transactions that continues to increase becomes a strong indication that the market will immediately rise again, don't be late because the price is skyrocketing again and of course we will be a lot Hearing people who are sorry for not buying when the market is red.
And now bitcoin has dropped below 30k, i believe bear market will not end anytime soon, it will last till end of 2022. Because with the current high inflation economic situation, the financial industry has a lot of problems, not only cryptocurrencies, look at the stock market like us, everything is unhealthy and difficult to increase comeback soon.
888  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar - UEFA Qualifiers on: June 04, 2022, 05:29:24 PM
This weekend, Sunday, Wales will face Ukraine for a World Cup spot. Ukraine won vs Scotland previously but Wales is better so I guess the game will be harder.
Bookies are showing almost similar odds, 2.7 Wales / 2.8 Ukraine with BTTS lower than not.. It seems to be very unpredictable and either team could win.

I wanna see ukarine playing this world cup for one obvious reason and that is they are war wounded. In last match against Scotland, predictions were that Scotland will win easily as ukarine players are not very much in touch with the game. But ukarine beat them with a decisive margin, I am expecting same in coming match against Wales.
Also, considering the head to head even though it's not a guarantee, but at least Ukraine looks better than Wales. What's more, I also agree about Ukraine winning in the previous match against Scotland, at least not many of us believe Ukraine will win but the fact Ukraine won very convincingly. With these factors, I personally am quite sure that Ukraine can win, but if Wales can play well then the possibility of a draw will occur in this match.

I really don't know which team is better but I don't think Ukraine is in the best spot right now. And the same thing can be said for Wales. But seeing the recent matches I also think that Ukraine might actually end up winning this match. I expected Wales to win their last match but they did not perform as I expected. And that has certainly brought down my confidence in them. So the thing is I don't know about Ukraine but I don't trust Wales.

As a coach, it becomes a matter of necessity for you to be aware or at least have some speculative idea on what could be the situation in your opposition team and then, you work on it as well as guide against yours. Jose Mourinho is an experienced coach and have coached top teams in several leagues, won trophy with most of the clubs he managed too but sadly, he often encounters some issues within his team and eventually lives the team. I hope this doensg become the case with AS Roma with Jose Mourinho.
He has been able to assume control over his team, detrmine the roles that suits each player better and his got a trophy to commensurate his effort. Congrats to Jose Mourinho and his AS Roma side.
I agree with your argumets. ı think Jose Mourinho is quite experienced coach. He has constant issues with the players, the members of the board, the president of the team or the rival team. He loves chaos. Also, he is very ambitious. He likes to assume control over his team.
I believed that Roma player’s had the psychological advantage because of a Mourinho’s record in the finals, and in the end they used all his experience to grind it out for a victory. However as we have seen in the past he starts having issues in his second season and ends up leaving by the third season, but I feel that he should drop that pattern and stay at Roma because I feel that he’s building a special project there.

I think even though his record is not very well with bigger teams in recent times, I believe with Roma he will stay and I can't think why he might leave by the third season. He is gradually building up the team to have some good results in the near future. But obviously, he needs some time and money to have some successful results with this team. He is a good coach and he is a very forward-looking coach. I believe he will find success with this team if he is given the proper time.

I have been to crypto since 2016 but I never seen this blue chip coin almost gone to zero value that drastically nosediving and created so much noise in the market industry and made people losing too much money on terra. I saw post on twitter some committed suicide over this and it's unbelievable to bear that few people taken their lives in this industry.
This has never happened before, this is really the biggest shock I have ever seen in the market. Luna's crash was worse than a shitcoin. I'm sure no one would have expected it to happen to a market leading coin like Luna, this only happens with shitcoins.

The start of the third day's match was delayed due to rain. But after the start of the match, New Zealand lost three wickets in one over by Stuart Board. Now New Zealand's collection is 259 for 7 wickets. Tom Blundell is still at the crease with 94 runs. But my guess is that New Zealand will lose all their wickets in 30-40 runs. And they will be able to deliver close to 300 targets. I think it is enough to win against England.

Your guess is somewhat correct. After Tom Blundell returned to the dressing room, when Newzealand's score was 265. After that New Zealand players were able to collect only 20 more runs on the scoreboard. New Zealand lost all their wickets for 285 runs. New Zealand gave a target of 277 runs.

England's first wicket fell for 31 runs. Alex Lees returned to the dressing room after collecting 20 runs. 246 more runs were needed to win. Although the score may seem small, considering the condition of the pitch, it is very difficult to collect 246 runs. England is an experienced team, so the chances of both teams winning are still the same.

The collapse of England's batting team has already started in my opinion. They have lost three wickets already and scored 49 runs. They still need 228 runs to win the test match and it honestly looks really hard. I really don't think they will be able to do it in this situation. They need to form a really good partnership otherwise things are not looking really good for them to be honest.

It's good that women cricket in India is progressing but it's still a long way to go. Actually women cricket less Aus, England and England is suffering badly. As boards are not wiling to spend even a penny on women cricket. India Women team performance as seen in last World Cup need more improvement.

In countries such as England and Australia, the boards have invested a lot of time and effort in promoting women's game and as a result they have a well developed system. In case of India, women's cricket was formerly under a separate organization and it was taken over by the BCCI some time back. But despite the takeover, the BCCI never gave it's due to the women's game. The justification is that women's cricket doesn't generate enough revenue. That is the difference between BCCI and the other boards.

Women's cricket is not as popular as England and Australia in India. I think that is a big reason why the BCCI is a little scared. They don't want to invest very big in something that might not give them the desired return. Otherwise, cricket, in general, is very popular in India and we should have seen a very good approach from BCCI about women's cricket.

But they don't seem to be very interested in women's cricket as they are in men's cricket. In recent times we are hearing about some steps being taken regarding women's IPL and I think this will be a big step for Indian women's cricket.

Do not sleep on the idea that bear market can lasted another two years like 2018 and 2019, this time it might just take another 200days for a bear market to be over, start buying at every dips instead of waiting.

While people still think that the bear market will continue for another 1 to 2 years, the market is likely to recover shortly after that. Markets are unpredictable and often don't go the way we think.  So stop speculating, at the current price it's better to start buying than to wait and regret later.
894  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will LUNA's downfall scare away investors from the crypto market? on: June 03, 2022, 03:03:06 PM
I think that the fall of LUNA will not scare away any investor from the market, on the contrary it will attract more towards btc because they will consider it the safest of all investments, it is clear that they can establish some altcoins as the best refuge options when BTC is trending bullish and want to do maybe a 2x, 3x, 10x in the best of scenarios, but those who lost with LUNA know very well that they were exposed to the fact that something like this could happen, in fact any cryptocurrency can happen, and it is very minimal the option that BTC happens something like that because there is very strong institutional investment.


Yes, going through luna downfall i see more people starting to go back to bitcoin than trying to make a quick profit from altcoins and shitcoins. Luna was an expensive lesson that many had to pay. Cryptocurrency is really risky and it becomes even riskier if you invest in a currency other than bitcoin.
895  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Everything stop on: June 02, 2022, 02:06:15 PM
Todays current situation for Luna all my works just stop and cant belive whats going on with this scenario!!  Lost too much in my life savings!! Now thinking about invest on btc at least there is no chance like 98% dump at least stable coin looking to more risky!!
I think that your life savings should not be left in an altcoin, your life savings should always be left in stocks or safe coins, like gold, BTC can be a safe haven, but in the long term you should see BTC as the coin that can reach $100k and if you have your life savings in BTC when you get there you will have even more profits then it's not bad what happened ´, but you must learn that you don't have to leave everything in one place. I recommend diversification, such as real estate, gold, bitcoin and everything that can give you security and trust.


It's a lifetime savings so don't put it all in one place even bitcoin there is no 100% guarantee bitcoin is absolutely safe and risk free. You should only invest with amounts that you can afford to lose and should divide them into different baskets. Anything can happen, so diversify your portfolio.
896  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: newbie invest on: June 02, 2022, 01:31:13 PM
I want to say something to new investors about launchpad platforms. I think it's not good for the market to have that many Launchpad platforms. Especially recently, IDO's made in launchapd's made investors lose. For example, Avalaunch's last two IDOs are below the selling price. Launchpad platforms should be more selective when IDO, not accepting every project. Newbie investors should be careful about these issues.

If you want to participation Launchpad platform, then I think just join binance launchpad, most of the tokens sold on it have impressive ROI and return investors.

As a newbie, OP should be more careful when joining projects on launcher, best newbies should focus on holding topcoins instead of participating in new projects which would be very risky.
897  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Biggest mistake in crypto? on: June 02, 2022, 01:25:13 PM
Definitely hesitant of realizing the tremendous profit thinking that it could go higher, I think most of us also regret missing out the right timing for our market moves and get swallowed by the greed.
I mean just imagine missing the chance of becoming rich that are right in front of your eyes just because you want to get more richer and alas the market moves against your market decision and as a result you are losing instead, so ridiculous but happened in many of the veteran traders and holders' investment and asset management.

Do you mean greed?, I'm pretty sure everyone goes through that at some point in their life. actually greed is the biggest enemy we face in this market.
Just because we wanted a little more profit, we could have lost a big profit. Even if you are a veteran investor, the goal is still to make more money, so it is difficult to avoid. This is a common mistake we all make.

England V New Zealand

I look forward to watching the first Test match between England and New Zealand. These two teams are very strong for the Test format. However, New Zealand's performance in the last few series was not as good as we expected. They also lost a Test match against a team like Bangladesh. But the New Zealand players are experienced enough. Hopefully they won't make any mistakes at Lord's. And we will have the opportunity to enjoy a competitive match.
Yes, this match will be intresting to watch. England lost its previous test series against West Indies but Newzealand were able to draw their previous series against South Africa. In my opinion Newzealand are still in a better position than the English side. The only advantage England has is that this match is being played in their home ground.

New Zealand is not playing well right now, they are not in good form. Their performance doesn't suggest that they are a team that is defending their test championship title. England is performing better compared to New Zealand right now in my opinion. But I believe New Zealand will be able to make a good comeback performance against England. I hope that will be able to perform well and so that they are the test champion of the world.
899  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: June 01, 2022, 05:41:09 PM
Existing more than 17 years is not easy and I think best performance with St. Etienne how come he can stay on Ligue although have over in this season, but bad performance in this season from 38 games played only get 32 points i think very poor performance from St. Etienne. Just getting 7 time winning, 11 match draw and 20 match have loss make St. Etienne have to face with play off round against Auxerre. Right now after relegation they have prepare for next season and soon as possible back to Ligue 1 again with more stronger than this season.
ST Etienne might return back to league 1 after the relegation stronger and better i really can't lay hold of what caused their poor performance hovering around the relegation zone right from the start of the season and achieving only 7-wins, 11-draws and 20-loses which landed them 32 points for the season. Auxere  might come with surprises their dedication and team work has earned them a slot in the league 1 and they might fight harder to secure this even for a longer season

St Etienne played really badly in this season and it should not be a surprise that they got relegated. I hope that they will be able to do better and come back strongly in league one as you said but obviously, it is not going to be easy at all. Auxerre has shown a really good commitment to getting promoted and the match which was decided against st Etienne was also a great show of their determination to get promoted. I think they might be able to do well. And St Etienne needs to earn their place back if they want to play in league one again.

I reckon they are pretty much very similar in terms of skills, and the game can really go either way. It will be a very close match in my mind. Scotland does have the local advantage so that's something that might give them the edge. We'll have to see how Ukrainian players perform in the field, because it can go either way, they can be motivated to go and win at all costs, or they might have their minds in other, more important things.
It will nevertheless be an interesting game to watch.
The match of ukraine and scotland will be a life and death match for both teams to get a place in the final play off against wales, from the game and squad i think scotland is still much better than ukraine, other than that the scotland national team obviously has a lot of time and calm in training compared to with the ukraine national team whose territory is in war, but the amount of support from a pro-ukraine country will of course raise the mentality of the ukraine players to win the match later, to be honest, in terms of strength maybe the match will not be balanced but it is not impossible for ukraine to give surprise in the game.

It is obvious that both the teams are going to try their hardest to win this match but even though it looks like both teams have the same chances I honestly believe that Scotland is a better team here. I am not saying this will be a one-sided match but I am saying Scotland will have a better chance. Ukraine is obviously going to get the support no doubt. They will also surely get the support of neutral fans but support is not going to win them the match.
