If you are learning about Bitcoin, you should read its white paper, Bitcoin Wiki, some good books and of course should know about Cypherpunks.

Usually casinos just hide the games or providers that don't allow you and people from your country to use them, it means you won't notice it unless you've seen somewhere else that the game or provider is available there.
Casinos can restrict people from some countries to use their platforms too. They have own policies for restricted areas and in worst restriction, a user from a restricted country is banned to use the casino.

So hierarchically, restrictions should come from the casino policy itself first, then continue to consider on restrictions of a specific game provider.

Quote
But if you try to use a VPN, you will see new games and providers appearing, except if your country is already accepted by all casinos and providers of course.
Using VPN should be done after reading Terms of Service and FAQ carefully. Read it first and if no policy against VPN, then you should confirm that information by chatting with support staffs in their chat box or ask it in Announcement thread like this one.  Cheesy

let's not forget that the World Cup in Qatar was missed by such stars as Benzema, Pogba, Kante due to injuries, and with them the French national team would be an absolute favorite, but even now it looks harmonious and is a real contender for victory and Argentina will not have it easy.
Pogba is a bigger star than Tchouameni but I wonder that if Pogba is in, is he able to play better than Tchouameni? We know Pogba has very bad performance in the past two seasons. He missed many matches by injuries but when he was available, his performance is damn shit poor.

Tchouameni scored a goal in match with England with a long-distant shot which reminds us about Pogba.  Cheesy

Losing kante in the final would not a big problem. France can even go to the final without all of them.
Losing Kante is a big disadvantage but Kante in 2022 is worse than Kante in World Cup 2018. His worse performance is reflected in his club, Chelsea in the past two seasons. A defensive midfielder like Kante relies on his fitness, physical capability which are all suffered by ageing.

Quote
There was also griezmannkante as a replacement for kante. Kante's soul was always with france and griezman has become a player that has the same playstyle like kante which can show in any side anytime.
In World Cup 2022, France under Deschamp management, choose to use Griezman as a box-to-box midfielder even he is an attacking player and like play maker. Griezman runs a lot in this tournament and his areas on field are too wide. In addition, Rabiot played well too and together with Griezman, they not only covered the missing of Kante but also reduce defensive tasks for Mbappe.

See a heat-map for Griezman in France vs Morocco match.

Why don't we have the option to ignore someone permanently in such a way that we don't see their post without removing them from our ignore list?
I believe it is limitation of SMF forum machine. Furthermore, if you click on 'Check post history of this user', even you ignored that user, you will still see all of his posts in post history page.

So the ignore on a specific user works differently than when you ignore a specific board by using 'Ignore Boards Preferences' which will hide all posts in that board.

  • If a display name of one user is changed, the old display name will still remain the same in quoted posts. It won't be changed to a new display name. If theymos does make it for display / username changes, it won't be applied for quoted posts
  • It perhaps because it was coded like it intentionally but I am more keen on a first theory.

FUD stands for fear, uncertainty, and doubt. In the context of cryptocurrency, FUD refers to negative or false information that is spread with the intent of causing doubt or fear in the minds of investors, with the goal of lowering the price of a particular cryptocurrency.

What the FUD you're spreading on social media accomplishes;
Seriously advice people who follow social media accounts which were used to spread fud, they should unfollow those accounts or expose with such information with highly carefulness and own research.

It is no secret that FIFA is corrupt from top to bottom, but the fact that VAR is not used in this situation speaks volumes for the fact that Croatia had no chance in that match. According to all valid rules that apply in football, there is no question of a penalty kick but a foul on the goalkeeper - although most of you shit spammers have no idea what that means.



Quote
"An important detail for which a penalty kick should not have been awarded: The goalkeeper's right foot is on the ground, and the contact is inevitable due to inertia. There is no foul, the contact was inevitable" - wrote on Twitter the Mexican with refereeing experience at the 2002 World Cup in South Korea and Japan, who currently works as a referee analyst for ESPN Deportes and ESPN Mexico.
That penalty and an opening goal for Argentina changed the match. It's hard to say that if there is no penalty, will Argentina win the match. Maybe they will win it at the end too but we might feel doubtful that what will happen if they were not given that penalty. Will we see another drama from referee to give advantage to Argentina?

Is it true like Zlatan Ibrahimovic said "This World Cup was reserved for Argentina and Messi". Believe it or not, soon we will know in the final match.

I get your point but at Majer's current age, Modric was already the Croatian best player twice. Honestly I don't think he could be as top as Modric someday.
I agree Majer does not have good talent and skills like Modric and he looked like too stressful and less confident in this World Cup.

Majer did not show well with some substitutions in this World Cup. He and Modric are like Messi and Julian Alvarez as these young players used to consider Modric and Messi as their idols. In this World Cup, they have chances to play with their idols. Another one is Rodrygo and Neymar in Brazil squad.
1388  Economy / Gambling / Re: Neodice.com | Futuristic Dice Platform 🎲�� on: December 13, 2022, 11:02:50 AM
Here's an idea from me. Maybe Neodice should support bitcoin lightning network deposits and withdrawals. I haven't seen that very often and it might be worth considering. This could reduce the withdrawal fees and players could also deposit smaller amounts inexpensively. Sure, lightning isn't used by many people yet, so I wouldn't see it as a priority, but I would consider introducing it at some point.  Smiley
There are limited casinos that accept Bitcoin Lightning Network. In the meantime, having acceptance for Bitcoin Segwit is good enough for Neodice users. Segwit nowadays is like a standard for Bitcoin users including Bitcoin gamblers.

It helps them to save transaction fee in deposit and save more satoshi for their future.

If gamblers want to enjoy cheaper transaction fee for deposit and withdrawal fee, they should consider altcoins.

At Neodice, there are some altcoins for them: Litecoin, Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash and Dogecoin.

These are minimum cash-out amounts:

BTC: 0.0004 BTC with 0.0002 BTC fee

LTC: 0.1 LTC with 0.0005 LTC fee

BCH: 0.025 BCH with 0.00001 BCH fee

ETH: 0.01 ETH with 0.0027 ETH fee

DOGE: 50 DOGE with 1.5 DOGE fee

Jude Bellingham seems like he has a chance to do that, but this is a lot more than just one position or one player, it is about the system. It has been always known that their manager wasn't an elite level one, and to be fair it is very very hard to find an elite level manager at national level, most of them are at clubs, and unless we start to consider club/nation together managed by the same person, then we are not going to see too many managers doing great.
I disagree with you at the moment. Currently Jude Bellingham is more like a box-to-box midfielder and is like another version of Steven Gerrad and Frank Lampard. I will change my mind if Jude can improve his skills and become a play maker in future. I know he is a long future ahead so everything can happen. It's just at the moment, he is not like a play maker.

If Jude want to become a play maker, he should take risk and challenge by joining a big club in La Liga especially clubs that have traditional attacking-favorite like Real Madrid and Barcelona.

It would be harder for him to sharpen skills and become a play maker if he plays for Dortmund, Atletico Madrid and any club in Premier League.

I am actually very surprised that there are so many people that think Morocco would be in the final. Morocco had some flash in the pan wins with Portugal being the biggest win of it all.... but I doubt that they will be able to take it to the final.  Roll Eyes

France is now the betting favorite at +100 to play in the final, so I think a lot of other people agree with me that France is going to kick Marocco's a$$ tomorrow.  Roll Eyes
They are suffering injuries and suspensions and it is logic to think Morocco will not be able to beat France. Logically I think so too but in sports in general and football in particular, we can not say 100% about result before a match ends.

Morocco have enough confidence on what they can do after beating many teams so far and they do have enough belief that they can make France as a next victim. They already made a history for Africa continent by being a first team from the continent to play in World Cup semi-final. Nobody charges you anything by dreaming and fighting for it.

Moroccan players won't stop dreaming before the semi final match ends and I believe they even have bigger motivation to win it than French players.

France is one of the strongest teams in the world for several reasons. First, France has a talented squad with some of the best players in the world. Furthermore, France have a history of success in the World Cup, having won the World Cup in 1998 and reached the final in 2006. They also showed their strength in this World Cup by beating England in a superb game.
In World Cup, to win one World Cup, you need more than history. Of course, historic success can help one team more confident with what they can achieve but in reality, they must be strong, smart and lucky enough to win World Cup.

France have good World Cup record with two titles and one failed final match but this record is not better than Brazil, Italy, Germany or Argentina. Anyway if we are looking at the present, France have a very good team and they are continuing their success in World Cup 2018. They are very likely to have another World Cup final because undoubtedly France are stronger than Morocco in an upcoming semi-final match.

France were a victim of Greece in Euro 2004 final match so they must be more careful this time with another under dog team.

With altcoins and different rounds of sales: seed, private serie A, serie B, public sale, whenever each round of token unlock comes, price will be dumped. It is easily to discover with GameFi, NFT tokens in 2020 and 2021.

Even in bull market, token will still be dumped and in bear market, things should be worse. Especially if it is about GameFi, Whatever-to-Earn tokens, their non-gamers will play such game-to-earn and dump their earned tokens on the market without hesitation.

Thank you Onthue for sharing the site which I did not know about. Are their stats correct? Can anyone confirm it?

By the way, we have another website with similar features for double checking.

Each moderator can do multiple tasks and moderate multiple boards. If you see an assigned staff for a specific board is inactive long time ago, it does not mean that board is not moderated at all.

Additionally, the displayed staff names for a specific board has been not updated a long time. MiningBuddy, a moderator for Beginners & Help board. The user is no longer a forum staff which is confirmed by Search by position with a keyword 'staff'.

England is missing world class play maker from middle of the field. If they had De Bruyne or Modrić I am sure they would have had much more success in big competitions. Maybe Jude Bellingham can be that player in the future. He played a very good tournament and could develop even more since he is still very young.
Perhaps my comment will make England fans disappointed and angry but there is another example, Andrea Pirlo from Italy when they won against England in Euro 2012. Pirlo destroyed England midfielders in that match and they hoped to have their own Pirlo.

Years ago, England had a talented midfielder, Jack Wilshere but his career was destroyed by too much pressure on his early career and too many injuries. After Jack Wilshere, I did not see any midfielder from England has such potential to control match intensity well enough.

Quote
You can't expect great things with midfield like Henderson, Rice, Philips which was Southgate special. That midfield can only play defense and hope that your opponent will be stupid enough or weak enough that your wings have enough space to score a couple of goals.
Correct, they are midfielders who simply rely on their body strength to fight but they lack of capability to control match with their techniques.

Whitelist works like you flag this withdrawal address as safe so no need for some verifications every time you withdraw to that address.
This feature on an exchange is useful because it will become convenient every time you withdraw because no need for some verifications needed, it's 1 press only.
I mentioned it and believed it is the case for OP
  • Whitelisting an address
  • Turning on the one-step withdrawal for whitelisted addresses

Not sure he actually checked his account on this.


Hmmm now I'm curious 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Would you mind confirming that you did not do these two steps above, please.

1399  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Imagine a crypto world without VCs on: December 11, 2022, 01:55:06 PM
1. Do you think their involvement is helpful?
It is both helpful and harmful.
  • Helpful because VCs will expose cryptocurrency to more people. They already have their own networks and are able to expand their networks quickly with resources they have. More exposure, more cryptocurrency enthusiasts and more capital will pour into this market.
  • Harmful because VCs can be scam groups too. With this side effect, they will make people feeling more negatively about this market.

Quote
2. Can crypto still survive without them?
It will do. Before 2020 bull run, importance of VCs was smaller dramatically and we had this market since 2009 without VCs or with less VCs.


Similarly for the cryptocurrency market without China, USA. it will still exist but short term effects should be very big. The market and its investors will be shocked and panic.

As expected, England fell at the first difficult hurdle they faced (the same thing happens every single major tournament). The only reason they got to the previous World Cup semi final is because they didn’t play a top team. As soon as they met Croatia - OUT.
Same thing in the Euros, an easy path to the final vs Italy - OUT.
They are weak mentally and are not flexible, adaptive with tactics. So when they had troubles and let opponents scored first, they mostly were not able to equalize and failed.

People talked too much about England that they have a most exciting and biggest or best national league (Premier League) but they forget the important contributions of foreigner players for Premier League. Domestic players were over valued by media and on transfer market. Big tournaments are places we can assess British players better.

Quote
We have some exciting semi finals coming up. Argentina vs Croatia & France vs Morocco. Logic says the final will be Argentina vs France but this World Cup has been very unpredictable. We could easily see Croatia vs Morocco. I think the latter final would be great to see, even though most neutrals would like to see Messi finally win footballs greatest prize.
It looks to be perfect if a final match is between Argentina and France but I'd not say a final match between Croatia and Morocco is too bad. In 2004, we had a final match in Champions League between Monaco and Morocco so will we have another surprising match between Croatia and Morocco which were both under valued since beginning of World Cup 2022?

We have a team that had some World Cup finals but never won it, Netherlands. Will Croatia have a second final match and win it?
