The concept of 21 million bitcoins supply cap has pushed me to learn and understand more about economics. The law of scarcity, supply, demand and the concept of money.

Only scarcity does not make a high price for Bitcoin. You must learn more to know why Bitcoin is favorite than altcoins, Bitcoin forks and why with same total supplies like Bitcoin, Bitcoin Forks don't have same price as Bitcoin and many of them are dead coins.

Some forks and you can check like 5 forks to see their prices as well as check their network hashrates.

That is what someone could think about Lukaku and Chelsea and it is normal that Chelsea rejects first offers for Lukaku in order to increase his price and pretend he is worth more. But Pochettino is not a fan of Lukaku if I am not mistaken here and if I had to make a guess I would say that I am sure that by the end of this transfer period Lukaku will not be a Chelsea player anymore and the price to have sold him will be less than Chelsea is asking for the time being.

A transfer price of a player will be higher if more than one club wants to buy him. Because it will result in higher competition between clubs on the transfer market. Demand will be higher and price will be increased by club competition.

First of all, Lukaku does not want to return to Chelsea and play for them. Second, as you said, Chelsea coach Pochettino does not like Lukaku and does not have any plan to use Lukaku in a new season. Chelsea are trying to get money from a sold transfer at as highest price as possible and they want to make noise on the transfer market as well as proactively contact some potential clients.

No center forward linked to Ac Milan yet and I think linking Lukaku was not right at all because he is under contract with Chelsea and they are not going to lose this player easily while Inter Milan is also trying hard to hire Lukaku and he wants to play for Iner Milan, that's why even thinking about Lukaku is not right for Milan.
Here are all the rumors for AC Milan and I can see no forward linked to this team yet.

Lukaku does not want to betray Inter Milan and join AC Milan. Inter Milan gave Lukaku very good treatment and chances in his career so he loves Inter Milan and is like an Interista. With his personal experience with Inter Milan, Lukaku can join other clubs in Serie A but not likely join AC Milan and his priority will always be Inter Milan if he leaves Chelsea.

I think in terms of loyalty to Juventus no one has any questions, but you have to finish on time too and not be greedy while the level of play falls below competitive level.
The club itself should have sent Bonucci to play in the Saudi league or other leagues where he could have earned money, considering how loyal Bonucci was to Juventus and how much he brought to the team's game.

Will he want to leave the club and Europe if he still want to play with Italy in Euro and World Cup?

Look at his former team-mate Chiellini, Bonucci will have find reasons to stay in Juventus. He combined with Chiellini in center of Italy defense and won Euro 2020 together, 2 years ago. Chiellini was not able to play too many matches in that season but he brought his experience to Italy and helped them to win that tournament. Not too far after that trophy, Chiellini retired and Bonucci can try to repeat that achievement in Euro 2024 or World Cup 2026. I believe after next two big tournaments, he can move to Saudi Arabia or retire his career. Bonucci can look at Pepe who still plays for Portugal at his 40 years old.

Yes, I do use a VPN proxy, especially when residing in a country where cryptocurrency trading is not as crypto-friendly due to legal restrictions or regulatory uncertainties. Utilizing a VPN can help enhance privacy and security by encrypting my internet connection and masking my IP address, which adds an extra layer of protection when engaging in crypto-related activities.

When you use a VPN proxy, you must consider Terms of Service has anything against VPN or not. If that exchange allows users to use VPN proxy, you can consider a next one. If you want to prevent problems with your national restrictions on cryptocurrency trading, you can use VPN but VPN proxy does not help you too much.

If you want to do this to avoid problems with governments, you must find non KYC exchanges to use. If you use a centralized exchange, with KYC, VPN proxy does not help you to hide your identity from government. If government want to find you, they can submit a request to that exchange and require them to share your identity with them.

Mbappe will change teams either this season or next season but his team is sure to change. Mbappé would have joined Real Madrid long ago but he is only waiting to become a free agent member but his free agent membership is never possible because PSG keep him in the team with a huge annual salary so when he wants to leave the team, PSG will definitely want something through him.

Mbappe helped PSG to understand that they can not succeed by giving too big power to a player. They failed with Mbappe and they learned a big lesson from him so they will not repeat it in future. I think the cost is paid by PSG but they did also had a precious lesson from money they paid and from Mbappe.

Together with a successful season from Manchester City with an opposite approach than PSG, it will motivate PSG to change themselves starting from this summer by selling Mbappe. What club will be a next club for Mbappe is not important with PSG, they need to get money from Mbappe transfer to buy new players.

Quote

A few days ago there were rumors about Mbappe joining Liverpool but I don't think this rumor will be true because Mbappe was getting enough opportunities in PSG but still the main reason for his change is to achieve something which is possible in Real Madrid. If Mbappe were to switch teams, the most likely move would be to join Real Madrid.

Klopp and Liverpool had problems to solve conflicts between Mo Salah and Mane. Will they buy Mbappe and face with a similar conflict between Mbappe and Mo Salah? I believe if Mbappe joins Liverpool, he will not want to be considered as a second brightest start in Anfield. Liverpool don't have money to buy him and they will not bet their club finance balance to buy Mbappe.

We appreciate your suggestion. However unfortunately that's not a financially feasible option for any crypto casino to implement.

KYC analysis isn't free. You either hire a KYC manager or work with a KYC verification company with whom the operator needs to pay for each verification. Casinos need to balance their financial sustainability and the needs of their users in order to stay competitive in this market where bonuses are becoming increasingly generous.

Most fiat casinos, especially those being required to conduct KYC when the player first sign up, can only offer less generous bonus and demand higher house edge partially for this reason.

KYC on good platforms will not be processed carelessly, but very carefully. Because as legit services, they will have to obey regulations, AML and KYC is part of it. So if they do KYC, they have to verify user documents carefully as they don't want their service will be in problems with governments.

If it is a scam site, KYC will be easily because they don't verify anything, just ask users to submit documents and steal those documents to sell for money. Difference between legit services and scam ones.

Your explanation clears many things, Coinbox1.

It's just an another way you convert your private key into something that Average Joe wouldn't know if it's contain your private key. Safe or not, quite similar like how you hide and store your private key in a safe place. I think you're must write down the HEX code if you want to store it offline because if you print out the colors, there's a chance the color you printed isn't same due to int quality, paper quality, etc, using color picker will give your different HEX code.

See, both of the colors are same if we see with our eyes, but the HEX code are different.

█
HEX code: #ff4017

█
HEX code: #ff4219

When you make a colorful backup, you will have to back up the HEX code to know what is that color. You can not print a colorful paper piece and use it for recovery if you don't know the HEX code.

I don't see good convenience and safety with this colorful backup style. It is like I have to encrypt my seed phrase to colors which are hidden in HEX codes and later will have to decode it to get seed phrase. It is so complicated and inconvenience.

If something is wrong with one or few HEX codes, the backup will be unusable. LIke if ff4219 becomes blurry, broken like I only can read ff4... and three last numbers are unreadable, I will have to try with so many numbers. With seed phrase, I can simply enter it in a wallet and it will suggest some words for me.

I've heard some rumors that Thomas Tuchel is eyeing several players for Bayern Munich's attack line but he hasn't made any offers yet so we don't know what steps Tuchel will take in the future as the transfer season is almost over.
Yes, if some of the players are really taken and can collaborate to play with Mane it will create an attack game that is effective enough to produce goals but getting new players to collaborate well with old players also takes time so it is a challenge for Tuchel in the future.

Bayern Munich have a good attacking system and with good growth of Musiala, they will have better attacking and creativeness in a new season. They still lack of a good central striker as Choupo-Moting can not replace Lewandowski. He is at a lower level than Lewandowski and Bayern are looking for a new striker.

A most common rumor about Bayern Munich transfer recent weeks is about Harry Kane. Kane will give Bayern Munich many options for their attacking system and will be a good striker for them. I believe he is the best choice for Bayern Munich too because he is not too expensive like Mbappe and Haaland, has good quality and he is not too old. Signing with a world class striker and can use him in next 4 years at highest level, it is a very promising transfer for Bayern Munich.

Thomas Tuchel is doing an excellent job at Bayern Munich

I disagree to say he did excellent job so far in Bayern Munich. It is only acceptable and some will think it's unacceptable too. If Musiala hadn't scored a title winning goal for them in very last minutes, they would have lost the title to Dortmund.

Quote

he expects to achieve significant achievements in the coming season. Bayern Munich is intent on getting Harry Kane over, but it's a near-impossible job for the Bavarians because Tottenham Hotspur have stayed firm, refusing to lose their star scorer this summer, and have increased their bid for him. However, Bayern Munich will hunt for another prospective attacking player to scout this summer.

He will have more time with this summer, transfers to improve the team and pre-season training time to help players understand more about his tactics. If in a new season, he won't get excellent result, I believe Bayern Munich will consider to fire him. In crisis after Covid-19, clubs are less patiently waiting for good results from their coaches if bad results affect their club income.

Real World Asset will make DeFi tokens better. Will those RWA tokens be backed by real assets and will their company treasuries safely audited forever?

I think if a token is backed by real asset, it is safer but it does not eliminate risk of scam. Their company treasuries can be faked and in history, we can see some shocked scams which can more easily happen with cryptocurrrencies.

A big problem with DeFi tokens is, they can not maintain their capital in and out. If capital in drops, their token price will be affected. It will be worse when their tokenomics can not control inflation.

Quote from: Ryu_Ar1 on July 10, 2023, 03:16:05 PM

When we invest, the initial capital to do so besides money is of course a wallet.

Wallets are tools for you to store your coins. You can use free or paid wallets but don't think if you buy a wallet, it is better than a free wallet software. It depends on what wallet you buy or use. If you buy a bad hardware wallet, it is not better than you use a free open source non custodial wallet.

Quote

There are so many wallets out there today and I've been quite happy in the last few years to use Electrum as my wallet to store my assets.
However, given the cases of people losing their assets on Electrum, even though it may have been their own negligence, I'm wary because I realise that I'm one of those people who can be very careless and still make mistakes when it comes to seed storage.

Electrum wallet is safe and you can use the Electrum wallet as your hot wallet or your cold wallet.

People lost their coins because they are careless, it is not because quality of Electrum wallet. They can learn and use Electrum wallet with multisig or cold wallet.

If Kane has officially played for Bayern Munich, then of course he will likely steal the show, and yes it's good for Mane to think about other clubs if there is an attractive offer. But it seems that recruiting Kane is still quite difficult for Bayern Munich, although it is also rumored that Bayern Munich continues to raise price to bring Kane but the price is still not good enough for Tottenham.

Harry Kane can become another Batistuta who spent best of his career for Fiorentina but did not win any title with Fiorentina. He left Fiorentina when he even didn't want to do that but by moving to Roma, he won a Scudetto with Roma.

Kane will have better chance to win titles with Bayern Munich and very possible he will win some Bundesliga with Bayern Munich. He will be a hub of Bayern Munich attacking system like Lewandowski and with his finishing skills, he will score many goals. Kane will carry less tasks at Bayern Munich because they already have a good system and other players can support Kane very well. It is not a club where if Kane does not score goals, they will not win.

Because ATM would work like cash is it? Maybe instead of ATMs like banks do have, crypto exchanges could just put up a machine where users can do transactions with hard wallets. People then are able to buy, sell, and transfer funds and coins more conveniently. I believe Binance already does have cards where it is easier to transact because of the QR code and chip attached to it.

If governments can bring troubles to ATM manufacturers and operators with their regulations, they can do the same with whatever machines from cryptocurrency exchanges. They might not do it when cryptocurrency exchanges launch those machines but they will tighten their regulations after observing a while.

Do you think Binance can do everything out of laws when they are a centralized exchange?

They have to withdraw their business operations from many countries latest months and if you did not miss those news.

because they really have money and of course, they want to get star players who are expected to help the team win trophies, of course, they have to spend some money.
at this time it is very visible how the influence of wealthy owners is the Newcastle club. the transformation of the changes shown is very clear. it proves a well-funded club that will compete for the top spots. because they have the power to buy the players they want.
Further news may come from MU, who is also said to be in the process of changing hands. but somehow the results I have not followed the continuation.

They can not buy star players they want if they only have money. Some star players care about their career so they will only move to a new club if they have both, good salary and good chance to win trophies for their career. Newcastle United with a good performance and a spot in top four of Premier League, will be qualified for Champions League 2023 - 2024 and it is their more attractive factor to hook star players to Newcastle United.

They are on a right track to build a stronger club with an outstanding performance in the last season. Star players will be more impressed if they look at Newcastle United just one season ago and feel like they can join to make the club stronger, to compete for titles and will have chance to experience Champions League air and song.

Banks are going to try and do whatever it takes to stay a float, or a head of the game, so to speak. If they see or discover an opportunity to be able to add another service that fits in pretty well with their business model, then they are likely to do so. People still trust banks, whether they should or not, so for the banks themselves this makes a lot of sense of what not to miss out on (another way to make money).

Banks will try to get as many more customers as possible and they don't care, if law does not prohibit, if a product serves Bitcoin and cryptocurrency users.

If you (I am talking about newbies, not ChiBitCTy) use such middle service from banks to access Bitcoin investment, you will allow banks to trace your investment history. KYC is another problem with people who care about their privacy they will look for other options, not with banks and bank products.

If you don't care about privacy, you can go with bank products if you can actually get bitcoin after using bank to buy it. If they only credit a number of bitcoin for your bank account and you can not withdraw it, don't use such products.

Leonardo Bonucci is about 37 years old. For this reason, Juventus will not be interested in renewing Leonardo Bonucci's contract. Leonardo Bonucci is definitely an experienced player. But Juventus will likely be interested in keeping the young talent in the squad. I would say right now Leonardo Bonucci is looking to go to a club in Saudi Arabia. He is old enough. He will not be able to maintain his fitness in a competitive league like Premier League or Serie A. Will be prone to injury. And so he should join a less competitive league like Saudi Arabia or Super Lig.

In the past season, Bonucci had very limited appearances for Juventus and Italy. At the end of season, he played matches for Italy in UEFA Nations League but did not have good performances. He wasted very last chances to convince Juventus but Juventus don't have good finance now and they will use Bonucci like they did with Chiellini in the past. We must be fair with Bonucci that he is not useless and still useful for Juventus if they use him sparsely and give him time to have enough rest and recovery time between matches.

Far in the past, we see AC Milan used Costacurta and Maldini till nearly 40s with this strategy and with limited options to buy new defenders, Juventus will not kick Bonucci out if he still wants to play for them.

It is an undeniable fact that Milan really need a striker right now. They can't move on with Giroud and Origi anymore as none of them would be reliable for bigger successes. Giroud has been better than Origi at least but still he is getting too old and he might not be consistent anymore. Origi is also even far away from his performance at Liverpool. Lukaku was on Milan's agenda but they must have given up their attempts for him after hearing that his priority is joining back Inter.

Giroud is too old and AC Milan will not bet that Giroud will play well in a next season. Origi has never been a good striker at world class level so they can not rely on Origi too. Lukaku loves Inter Milan and it's impossible to see him joining AC Milan after his drama with Ibrahimovic and Milanista in the past. In addition, Chelsea only want to sell Lukaku and get money. They no longer want to send Lukaku to any club in this summer with a loan transfer.

Everyone should do due diligence on any token before buying as no one will be responsible for any loss. I also think that investment in FUN token is good as this coin has good fundamentals but I would never recommend putting everything in one coin. Diversify your portfolio and invest only a certain portion of the portfolio in FUN tokens. The current prices are too low and if this coin performs well in the alt season, then for sure we can get good returns on investment.

Doing due diligent research is necessary for everyone who want to spend money for investing or trading but it is not enough. They must understand two more things. First, the market is a zero-sum game so if you win, someone else loses money. If you lose your money, someone else win. It's not a market for everyone to win even Bitcoin has very good growth since 2009, there are people who lost money by investing and trading in Bitcoin. If they entered and exited like buy high, sell low, they are losers and they can not blame it on Bitcoin or call Bitcoin is scam. Bitcoin is not a Santa Claus to bring gifts, profit to everyone.

Second, they must not invest more than what they afford to lose with investing or even with trading.

If you are still mining this coin from your smartphone, probably it's the time to remove the app permanently.

Mining Pi Network on smartphone when you turn off your phone is still possible. I can not step in shoes of people who believe in that technology used for Pi Network. It is unrealistic if we are not greedy. Don't need to have deep knowledge too, just not being greedy.

Like you can earn money on your phone when you sleep and your phone is sleep (power is off) too. If I was those people who believed in Pi Network, when I was introduced about that coin like that, I will stop listening.

Pi Network does not have a blockchain too.

Hilarious that some exchanges tried to use the name Pi Network to scam their users by listing a scam token with a name Pi Network months ago.

Whales can't do that with bitcoin all that easily, people think that it's the whales that pump and dump the price but it's all of us. We are talking about billions in trading which means that we are not going to see just a single whale that change anything.

They can not do that by their own capital but they use news as their best weapon to manipulate the market. Human in the market don't change, they want to read news and let news affect their emotion, psychology and decisions. Whales are big players who release news to the market, feed it with news to manipulate it ups and downs. Surely there are many whales on the market, not only one.

Quote

We are going to see people reacting to the market, so if it drops even due to a whale just a little bit, we all end up selling together because of it and drop the price and then blame the whale for making it drop a bit. Like Elon, you think Elon made bitcoin or doge go up? Of course not, his money wasn't enough to make it go from 3 cents to 70 cents, he would have to spend all his money, he did not do it, then who did? All the people who bought because of him, it was all of us basically, we did that.

Whales release news, market reacts and forced liquidation will do its task. With forced liquidations, price will be lifted up or down very sharply and small investors, traders can not have enough time to close their positions, exit the market and later they will be fed with other news to explain why the market moves like that.

Manchester United are very interested in Onana, especially since they have decided to release their main goalkeeper David De Gea, so Manchester United must be able to get a suitable replacement. Onana is indeed very good, so it is only natural that Inter Milan holds him at a high price because it is quite worth it with quality. which is owned by the players especially Onana is also still very young.

Onana got a good Champions League season with Inter Milan but Manchester United will have to take risk as the last season is a best one in Onana career and Inter Milan is a biggest club in his career too. Buying a player who has never played in a league is risky because moving to a new league requires many things to adapt to it. Onana is no longer young too as he is already 27 years old.

Quote

But on the other hand, I really doubt the Manchester United team's decision not to renew De Gea's contract, even though so far De Gea's performance is still very good and even last season his performance was still very good.

He made some serious mistakes which affected the club a lot like in Europa League matches with Sevilla and that last season is not a best one he has for Manchester United. In addition, his weakness with passing is a big reason Ten Hag does not plan to use De Gea in a next season.

Chelsea's attacking line, Christian Pulisic is a terrific player that has solid ball movement; he dribbles like Neymar Jr and Vinicius Junior, and I acknowledge him.

Pulisic is like Sancho and they both grew up in Dortmund, played well there but after that their career has some bad years. With Pulisic bad seasons in Chelsea and with Sancho bad seasons in Manchester United. Fairly assessment, they have lower levels than either Neymar or Vinicius Jr.

Quote

I'm just wondering forward to which team he'll play for next season. AC Milan will meet Chelsea one-on-one today, and talks have already reached an indispensable point; it's just a matter of hours before the basic plans will be put into execution. Furthermore, Pulisic requested permission from the club to seek new experience elsewhere in order to rewrite a new chapter in his football career. The American footballer would have left a long time ago in the 2022 transfer window, but his many bids fell through, preventing him from departing.

AC Milan are continuing their strategy that focuses on free players and players who have troubles at their clubs. His contract with Chelsea will expire in 2024 and Chelsea will sell him in this summer to get some money. They will not keep him in Stamford Bridge and lose him in a next summer.

With the need of Chelsea to sell Pulisic, AC Milan will have good chance to buy this creative player at very discount cost. On transfer market, his value is about $20M.
