Bitcoin is unique. We have only one Bitcoin.

Altcoins are a lot, thousands according to Coinmarketcap (22140), Coingecko (12863) [1, 2]. Important note, not all altcoins are listed at these sites. Many of them can not get approval for listing or were delisted after turning to dead projects.

Bitcoin network is decentralized.
Altcoins network are all centralized. Their centralizations can be different by centralized severity but they are not decentralized like Bitcoin.

Bitcoin network is a strongest one according to its total hashrate and estimation for How many confirmations are equivalent to 6 Bitcoin confirmations? [3]

Haaland has proven his worth ever since he came into Man City and I have to admit his presence has added a bit of spice to the way the squad plays. But to be honest, I will not call him a monster since just any player can do what he does. Take  Almiron for instance. Saw the game against Leicester and I had to conclude the guy would be a threat if pitted against Pep's men.
 Also, they won't be five points behind the Gunner's if he and the others had done their homework, so to me I see him as a guy who is at the right place at the right time.
The appearance of Haaland is helpful for Manchester City to covert ball possession and good passes to goals. He has a powerful body and can overwhelm opponent defenders too easily. In the past, Manchester City often had troubles when playing with clubs that choose to play defensive aggressively. They did not do anything to break opponent's defense systems but now with Haaland, they can in most of such matches.

Having a good player doesn't mean you can be a champion. To become a champion, you have to play the team game well, just a few talented football players are not enough for this job.
Manchester City have both of these things: good players, good coach and good team-working. They won many Premier League with stability in their club that is different than other clubs. Chelsea have too volatile in their ownership, coach position, tactics. Manchester City only have one owner, only one coach (Pep Guardiola) and one tactic from Pep in many years.

Quote
We know Haaland is one of the best players in the world, but I think he is still young and there will be times when we will play better.
Even now, he manages to break many records despite this young age Smiley
Look at Haaland, he is young, only 22 years old but he has scored 181 goals, nearly 200 goals. Will Haaland scores enough 1000 goals before his retirement?

Mbappe is 24 years old but has only 222 goals, not too much more than Haaland.

Three important rules of diversification
  • Don't store all your bitcoins in one wallet
  • Don't store all your bitcoins in one wallet from one wallet software
  • Don't store all your wallet backups (of different wallets) at a single location

Black swan events can occur any time but if you do good practice (security, privacy) and diversification (of choosing wallet softwares, storing bitcoins in different wallets and storing backups at different locations), you will have higher odds to be fine.

IMO, we can't claim Nunez failed because the season isn't over yet. There are still many matches to prove his ability as a top striker.
Nunez is over assessed because of his transfer cost that is insanely expensive. If we exclude his transfer cost, he has acceptable performance after several first matches in Premier League in his first season there. It is not easy for all players with their first season in Premier League. To assess Nunez better, I think we must wait for season 2023 - 2024 because after one season there, if he fails in a second season, it's clearly his failure.

Quote
Signing Gakpo doesn't mean replacing Nunez, Jürgen Klopp may put him alongside Nunez on Liverpool attacking line. Gakpo-Nunez-Salah seems promising enough, I expect Klopp to try this combination.
Liverpool sign with Gakpo because of injuries from two attacking players: Diaz and Jota. They found Gakpo as a suitable replacement and succeeded to bring him to Anfield with support from Van Dijk. These players are both important in Netherlands and Van Dijk is a captain so he has somewhat ability to convince Gakpo to join Liverpool.

Quote
By the way, every new signing is always gambling, no guarantee a top player to succeed in any team. Even a superstar like Hazard and Bale, failed in Real Madrid. However, Klopp must have a strong reason why he chooses Gakpo. He won't sign carelessly for a player who is worth around €60m. Gakpo is a young attacker and he can play in some positions, this can be two reasons why Klopp signs him.
Gakpo can play at many positions which I believe what Klopp really likes in this player. Gakpo can be another Firmino for Liverpool and he can release pressure for Nunez too. Liverpool might also not change their formation because of Nunez. They can use their same tactics like for Salah, Firmino and Mane. I feel that they will have a good combination from Diaz, Salah and Gakpo with Salah and Diaz at two swings and Gakpo at the center.

It maybe a new feature on Coingecko so they want to shill it as much as possible at their website.

Did you miss that on Coinmarketcap, you will get a pop up for "Install Coinmarketcap: Crypto Tracker"?

I believe Coinmarketcap starter that trend as I saw it weeks ago. Coingecko followed that trend but want to compete with Coinmarketcap.

True. Manchester City has become even stronger now thanks to Haaland, but they need a lot of luck to go their way too in order to end up winning the cup.
Manchester City were very strong since Pep Guardiola appearance at Itihad stadium. They dominated Premier without a world class striker but with Haaland, they have one.

Haaland helps them to resolve that issue and more important, he brings more pressure to defenders of opponents so that if he won't score goals, his team-mates midfielders can take opportunities to score goals for City.

You know, in this season City have a surprising success from Julian Alvarez and it makes them strong without Haaland too. These strikers can play together when City need to find goals seriously.

Julian played some good matches for City before World Cup and that tournament brought Julian to a higher level.

Quote
Liverpool somehow managed to win multiple matches including the final thanks to penalties which implies that luck heavily favoured them due to which they claimed the cup after a long gap.
Liverpool should be striked out from Premier League championship competition. They should be more realistic and focus on Premier League top four race as well as find chances in Champions League.

If Real Madrid have player like Mbappe and Karim Benzema in this season, it will really help the team to perform better because we saw what Mbappe displayed in the FIFA world cup competition that just concluded few days ago, despite Argentina won the title. Mbappe has what Real Madrid want but to release the money to get Play like Mbappe is very hard but I know Real Madrid are capable to afford any amount of money just to get him. And, I believe Mbappe will never make real Madrid to regret for such decision in future.
Mbappe is nothing if you don't give him space and if he does not receive good support from his team-mates especially midfielders with their passes for him. In World Cup final, we saw Mbappe mostly disappeared in first 70 to 80 minutes of that match before a penalty from Otamendi mistake which changed all.

After that Argentina players were panic a little bit and they gave Mbappe more space to use his speed. Mbappe became more dangerous in 2 extra halfs when Argentina players were tired and their coach was too late with substitutions.

Same thing is in PSG and at club level, Mbappe is not a player like Messi who can control the match intensity, play as a play maker, make assists and score goals. To be fair for Mbappe, he is a player like Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo, not like Messi.

A strange thing happened to me when I won the last big win, and that is that the money did not appear in my account. I contacted support, and they told me that they were going to tell the provider about the problem, when it appeared. It took me a few minutes to contact support, so it must have taken about 5 minutes in total from the time I won until it appeared in my account, instead of the usual way, which is that it appears instantly. I hope something happens to you and the gold bars reappear.
Customers first and customer support is important to keep customers staying on any platform.

From your sharing, it demonstrates that Livecasino.io site has a very good, responsive support team who can handle support request quickly. I am not surprised because they are managed by same team of Sportsbet.io and Bitcasino.io that are all great and successful casinos. They have a great team and got lot of lessons, experiences from previous two casinos which are still running like clockworks.

I think it's very important to keep telling these things for gamblers to read and think about. There were many really sad stories associated with gambling, and most them happened because people were not treating gambling as something meant for relaxation.
They started with wrong mind and intention to hunt for money from gambling that is not good and even can cause them to be rekted. In addition, they did not gamble responsibly that is warned at landing page of all gambling site. Similar to smoking like on cigarette box, you will see "Smoking causes lung cancer" but at the end, each person is responsible for what (s)he is doing.

I agree with you that if they consider gambling like gaming, they will have better net results. Don't chase for high multipliers and big wins, their net results should be better and not too negative.

To play game in gaming, people are ready to spend big capital to buy items just for fun but with gambling, they spend $10 and want to get not only $10 back but want to make it to $1000.

You don't go to the movie theater with the hopes of making some cash while watching a film, right? Try to treat gambling the same way, and there will be less negative feelings for you in the future.
I agree with you Betwrong.

Rashford has performed well this season as Manchester United's main striker. I admit it even though I'm not a Manchester United fan. Of course, his good performance is supported by the right strategy and also the support of his teammates who also have good performance.
The striker position in Manchester United since season beginning is moving around from Martial, Rashford, Ronaldo and Rashford in fact did not play most of the match at this position.

Rashford does not suit with this position and if you put him there in some matches, you might get good performance from him but if it is a long season, his performance as a striker would be bad.

Quote
But you know, Manchester United also didn't score too many goals in their last 14 matches. They scored 20 goals, while they conceded 20 as well. This means that Manchester United's current strikers are not really good enough to be expected to be the most dangerous team when they attack and they are still unstable in defense. There has to be improvement, it's mandatory if Manchester United wants to compete in the top 4 until the end of the season.
They lost Ronaldo in early of season, when he returned to the team, he performed bad.
They lost Martial in many matches because of injuries.
With Rashford, they can not trust him entirely.

In a past three or four matches before World Cup 2022, Manchester United got a gift from Garnacho and got some wins but he is not a striker. Garnacho is a player like Rashford who want to play at swing to use their speed and dribbling skills.

Their defense can be improved if they trust Maguire again and if he brings his good performance from World Cup 2022 back to Manchester United.

1357  Economy / Gambling / Re: Cloudbet | Bitcoin Casino & Sportsbook | The No.1 Bitcoin Gambling Site on: December 22, 2022, 02:01:47 PM
I think all complaints, regardless of whether or not there is sufficient evidence should be taken seriously by the casino itself, because thats their "customers" who are unhappy with whichever service or reason. Its really in the gambling casinos own interest to be concerned about helping their players feel comfortable because if they lose players, they will lose money. And even more if the players go on a rant online about how bad the casino is, and thus they will be damaging the reputation of the business and spooking away future customers, regardless of whether or not they have evidence for their claims.
Usually, but not all of course, many accusations are invalid at the end. Though it is a most common ending, I would not automatically call all accusations against a casino is invalid. Evidences must be compared from two sides and in some investigations, it needs to have mediator to investigate further and close a case.

Cloudbet has some accusations and if I am not wrong, it usually relates to their Terms of service about VPN and restricted area. Beyond that, they did not have problems with payment, withdrawal approval for their customers.

If I am not wrong again, cases I read in the past ended as people who came to complain, are cheaters (account farms, compromise with same bet pattern) on their casino.

Of course, it does not mean all new cases, new accusations will have a same ending. Investigation must be done case by case.

not been active on the forum for a long time, how could this be something normal? if you are robbed you will not be able to come and complain in this forum because it is not active
I agree that a casino should have a representative on the forum, if not the owner, should be another one, PR lead, whatever.

I guess the last active time is when Cloudbet came here to discuss about their latest signature campaign which was launched in April 2022.

I will like to ask the Men here if they have shared their seed phrase with their wife's? I will like to ask the women here how they will feel if their husbands refuse telling them their seed phrase?
My answer is it depends.

Depends on what?

  • How long have they been wife and husband of each other?
  • Because a first few years are the most challenging years and divorces usually happen in first few years especially first two ones

After spending a few years as a wife and a husband and nothing bad happens and especially if a couple have their children, it's a good time to think of sharing seed phrases of your wallets. It does not apply for all couples but if you feel you're happy with your soul mate and trust him or her, have a bond between you twos (your children), sharing it is very good.

Furthermore there’s already rumours of him announcing his exit, but these could also be the media trying to gain viewership from making clickbait titles hence I’ll be keenly watching their behaviour when they return on the pitch.
I am sure Mbappe will leave PSG in future. He perhaps will complete his newest three-year contract with PSG but after that he will likely to find another challenge.

It is not because he is not happy in PSG but more importantly because Ligue 1 is too small for him. He will have a bigger career if he plays in Premier League or La Liga. With his ability, I am certainly that he can play well in both leagues. A departure day of Mbappe will be seen sooner or later.

I really believe that even if Mbappe win Champions League and Ballon d'Or with PSG, he will still leave to other leagues. Mbappe will be another player like Ibrahimovic, Cristiano Ronaldo, not like Messi who spent most of his career in Barcelona and La Liga.

Kylian Mbappe was handed the biggest EVER contract for a sportsperson when he signed his new deal at PSG... and 'will earn a staggering £547m over the next three years', according to French media reports
