Bayern Munich's performance has been erratic since the sacking of Julian Nagelsmann. But we can't blame Thomas Tuchel for that.
Tuchel did not have much time in Bayern Munich before some important matches in Champions League and Bundesliga. First he brought hope to Bayern by directly beating Dortmund. Later Bayern got unstable performances and they luckily won Bundesliga at very last minutes of the season with a genius moment from Musiala and very poor performance from Dortmund.

Quote
Bayern Munich management sacked Julian Nagelsmann at a strange time. Such a decision was taken by the management before the crucial match against Manchester City.
Tuchel has his record to help Chelsea winning Champions League as an alternative coach since winter transfer. I guess Bayern Munich tried to bet on Tuchel and they really wanted to win Champions League. It is pressure from their not too good finance after Covid-19.

Quote
However, players need time to adapt to a new coach's formation or match strategy. Tuchel will also find Munich's weaknesses now. And Tuchel needs to be given enough time and opportunities for that. It is expected that Munich's performance will be more organized in the next season.
If Mane plays better and if Bayern find a good striker to replace Lewandowski, Bayern Munich will become a stronger club in a new season and they will dominate Bundesliga again. Their chance in Champions League will not be small because in a new season, many big clubs will be in transition phases like Real Madrid.

@zuzie their intent is very clear that they want to make SPL even bigger then the Premier League and the La Liga hence I believe that they’ll keep acquiring young and old stars from these two leagues primarily. Furthermore Messi isn’t coming but I won’t be surprised if several young star’s ditch their clubs and move to SPL because they can always return back in a year or two but they won’t get this kind of money elsewhere.
It is impossible for them to make Saudi Professional League as a big league like either La Liga or Premier League. Because you can not have a big league with very old players like Benzema or Cristiano, Kante. Those old players can bring some lessons to domestic players in Saudi but their performances will not be as same as when they were young years ago.

If Saudi Professional League can have players like Mbappe, many of such young super star players, they can increase the league quality a lot. Unfortunately it is impossible to convince players like Mbappe to join the league. They will want to play in Europe and win Champions League, Ballon d'Or, money is not all they want.

Young players can not grow up to super star players if they only play in Saudi or South America countries like Brazil, Argentina or Uruguay. We all see those youth players try to find their future in Europe. It is impossible to convince youth European players to join Saudi Professional League. They must build the league with their local players and players from Middle East nations.
1143  Economy / Speculation / Re: How high will Bitcoin rise, or fall, in 2023? on: June 13, 2023, 03:49:33 PM
A recession is coming

Bitcoin is supposed to be deflationary, but it hasn’t acted like a deflationary asset. As interest rates rise, almost all assets of value fall.

It turns out that Bitcoin is a store of value. So what does that mean? It means that investors have poured into BTC as a way to create a backstop should the stock market, real estate market, and other markets fall.

If a recession is coming, and it appears it is on the horizon, Bitcoin’s price could fall because investors will turn BTC into cash to pay debt.
Ignore the recession, Bitcoin halving is coming.

Recession is a support for assets as store of value, isn't it? Recession will create shock in all markets but good assets like gold and Bitcoin will be heavens for investors. There will be more demands on Bitcoin and gold in recession.

Are you sure about that?

The good luck on them is the fact that while they have lost good strikers they had, they are going to have a shot at Mbappe. He basically said he will not renew his contract with the team and PSG is not willing to let him go for free, considering he is one of the best player of his age, PSG will want a ton of money to sell him and there are very few teams who could pay for it.
The sudden departure of Benzema increases the need to buy a new striker in Bernabeu. Perez publicly answered that he and Real Madrid open to buy Mbappe but not in this season. It sounds logic because if they wait till the next summer, they will be able to have Mbappe as a free agent because Mbappe rejected to prolong his contract with PSG. PSG don't want to lose Mbappe without anymoney from transfer so they announced that they are ready to sell Mbappe.

The question is just the cost of Mbappe on the transfer market and will Real Madrid be ready to spend hundred of dollar to buy him when he only has one more year in the contract. I believe that Real Madrid have enough patience to wait one more year and save a lot of money.

Quote
I am not expecting City to end up paying it, United takeover is still not done yet and we are talking about Real Madrid here, it fits so perfectly because they have no striker and can play Mbappe directly at striker with no competition and he wanted to play there since he was a child, it's a perfect storyline right now and could be amazing to see.
I don't think Pep Guardiola wants to have Mbappe because he needs players who can follow his guide and he really hates players with high ego like Ibrahimovic or Mbappe.

1% is for the lay bettors on xfun.bet but on other FUN casinos/games it's 50% of the house profit that is burned. If more people would gamble their FUN tokens instead of staking them, quarterly burns could be way bigger than that. The so-called inflation, is not a real inflation. The total supply of FUN tokens can't increase and almost all FUN tokens are already in circulation. That's why the fully diluted market cap is almost the same as the current one.


Thank you. You have a very good insights that is helpful not only for me but for others who invested in FUN token or are interested in and are considering to invest in FUN token.

No more new FUN token for total supply and circulation and tokens in total supply will only be reduced by burning. It is important information and the token will be so-called deflationary with burning. We only don't know how fast and big or slow and small the burning progress be in future.

Having a deflationary future, real use cases and is backed by a big casino, FUN token has a bright future.

Not even that — the Optimism $OP token has been airdropped a few months ago already, and I'm pretty sure they can't claim it anymore today, nor will the Optimism team promote the token on social media.
I knew Optimism airdrop was distributed months ago, too long ago. The advice is general and not only for Optimism airdrop.

It is not only about airdrop but getting official information from official websites and channels is good method to reduce your risk to be phished and scammed.

Official websites, official social media channels and always double check information. Doing so before connecting wallets and interacts with smart contracts.
1149  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: June 12, 2023, 09:20:53 AM
the Manchester City team was built with process and now they are very solidly formed, it is possible for this team to continue to be in good form in the next 5 years or more.
and I'm sure that if Pep Guardiola stays at Manchester City in the next few seasons, they will be able to win many titles.
They actually dominated Premier League in the last six seasons but many players who experienced those successful years with them might leave Etihad in this summer. Winning Champions League is a greatest achievement they wanted to gain with Manchester City and now they had it. Players like Gundogan, Silva are open to move and some players like Laporte, Cancelo will not want to stay too. They want to play more often because Euro 2024 will come soon.

Manchester City are rich and Pep is a genius coach but sometimes, you can not get good replacements just by spending money and buying new players. Klopp and Liverpool are examples when their trio Salah-Firmino-Mane broken, they got more problems in attacking.

Quote
The Premier League has very tight competition from other teams, therefore teams are required to continue to develop much better.
currently the most competitive league is the Premier League even though man CIty has dominated in the last few seasons but that is inseparable from the strength and consistency of this team which is very good.
Next season, Manchester City will get more difficulty to protect their crown in Premier League because logically Arsenal would become stronger, same for Newcastle United. Manchester United, Chelsea can get improvement in the summer too.

So are you yourself investing your signature earnings in the FUN token and then locking them for  staking to earn more revenue ? If you can tell us exactly how many tokens have you purchased and locked till now so it can be a motivation for others.

Personally I will not spend everything into the FUN token but yes some portfolio can be allocated to the fun token buying as this coin has the potential to give many X returns in the next major bull market.

Also the current price of FUN token is very attractive to buy and it's near to the all time low.
Staking and maintaining initial capital (not losing it in value) and enjoying staking reward are very difficult.

You have to do it like trading. Buying token with discount price like yesterday, stake it and when price recovers, unstake it, sell your token. Wait for another dip to buy token and stake it again.

I don't believe that buying tokens and stake them many months is good strategy for staking. This strategy can cause you impermanent loss if you hold token too long and price only falls down.

If they want airdrop from Optimism, they must follow up Optimism's official website and channels.

That website isn't from Optimism project and fortunately the browser shows a warning when anyone visiting that site. I am sure that warning only appears after some people reported that scam, phishing site. So if you are the first one falls to that scam site, you might be scammed by them.

What to do to avoid phishing sites

You can lock your bag on Freebitoin  and you will get up to 25% APY on top of your premium program perks. Moreover each quarter 1% of the profits from fun token casinos are burnt. You can also easily convert them into XFUN token in your FUN wallet and you will be able to you use them with almost 0 fees on the polygon network. And since xfun is not listed on exchanges, the more the people convert them into xfun, the more FUN tokens are put out of circulation
1% of profit will be burnt each quarter is one of tools to control inflation of FUN token but is it enough?

I am not sure about the inflation from FUN token staking program APYs and 1% profit burnt, is the burning progress enough to control inflation? I know staking must bring good APY but it only makes senses for investors and stakers if in the long run, token price won't be dumped by inflation that is contributed by the staking program.

No, Inter will use 2 strikers. Dzeko will play with L. Martinez. So, it is untrue that Dzeko probably plays alone striker. L. Martinez seems to play full-time, Inter Milan needs this striker to break Man City defense.
Dzeko is old and will not be able to play 90 minutes and because he is old, Inter Milan will more need him in a second half when Manchester City players get tired a little bit. I bet that Lukaku will debut this final match with Lautaro and very possibly that Dzeko will be sent in the second half of the final. In a second half, Dzeko will have chance to use his experience to exploit defense of his former club, Manchester City.

City will do the game, with 70% possession of the ball.
Inter will play in defense and go with counterattacks.

This will be the plot of the game.
Inter Milan might collapse if Manchester City score first but what will happen if Inter Milan score first?

Will Manchester City fall into to a solid double-decker and fail to find an equalizer and lose at the end?

That's what I thought too. Robbers probably aimed for the cash inside that ATM, but unfortunately It seems like the ATM wasn't really used that much for the people nearby to purchase bitcoin using that ATM.
ATMs are public locations and you have to carefully choose what ATMs to use. Should avoid too remote areas and should not do it at nights.

Bitcoin ATMs are very last in your list of choices because transaction fees with Bitcoin ATMs are very expensive. You must know that you will have to pay more fees with Bitcoin ATMs than if you buy, sell coins directly at centralized exchanges, decentralized exchanges, Peer to peer marketplaces.

Of course Borussia Dortmund has the chance again next year again to become Bundesliga Champion, just like every other team of the league has the chance to win it.
This season, Dortmund got a great chance but throwing it away by themselves in the last match. They sold Haaland in the last season, Bellingham this season and what will they become in a new season?

Weaker or stronger, I don't know but my belief is they will become weaker. Bayern Munich after this chaotic season, will return with some players from the transfer market. Bayern Munich becomes stronger and Dortmund becomes weaker, it's simple speculation about a next season ending.

Quote
This year Bayern Munich did not play well at all over a pretty long period of time. This happens maybe twice in every ten years so i doubt that this will happen again in the next season.
It happens with all teams because players have to get older and lose their best. The advantage of Bayern Munich in Bundesliga is they are too rich compares to other clubs, and they are able to renew their squad with rich budget quickly. Other clubs have to sell their best star players to Bayern Munich or let those players join Bayern as free agents.

Quote
I also don't think that Dortmund comes closer and closer in the last few years. Looking at the squads. Bayern is probably more far away in terms of overall quality that they ever were in the last 10 years. Now that Bellingham is gone, there is probably not a single player of Dortmunds squad, that would make it into the starting eleven of Bayern.
Dortmund have to stop their transfer strategy to keep their best players that will help them to maintain strength to at least compete fairly with Bayern. In reality, they failed to keep their star players, sold them to Bayern or other big clubs and they only grew up young players. When their young players are matured to star players, they are more competitive against Bayern but it is not enough to win Bundesliga.

For me, Bitcoin and Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) are completely very different types of digital currencies.
Although both technologies have the potential to completely transform the way we think about money or our current financial system, but we must be aware because they carry some risks that should be carefully considered.
Digital currencies are not built on top of blockchain technology.

CBDCs will be built on blockchain but it's just lack of decentralization like Bitcoin blockchain. I think CBDCs are better than digital currencies in technology but if we can have choice to use Bitcoin, CBDCs will not be our favorite choice.

I think CBDCs have more advantage with blockchain technology than previous generations of digital currencies.

Correct. The arrival of Mourinho has indeed had a lot of good effects for the Roman club and even for the Roma fans themselves.
It started with a very warm welcome from Romanista to Mourinho two summers ago. It warmed the heart of Mourinho after some sad experience in Manchester United then Tottenham Hotspur.

Quote
And Roma's achievements this season are also not too bad. Even getting to the Europa League final is an achievement that I didn't even expect with Rome's current condition. Because as we know Rome doesn't have many top players in it. but making it to the Europa League Final is also proof that Mourinho can even maximize Roma's performance even with an mediocre squad.
Even rich clubs in Premier League like Arsenal, Manchester United could not play the Europa League final match, it is a big achievement for Roma. I agree with you that Mourinho has very important role in this achievement of Roma.

Quote
Even in the match against Sevilla, Roma had more accurate shots at the opponent's goal, even though they were constantly under pressure. And the defeat in the Europa League is also not proof that Roma have lost in terms of performance on the field. but they were just unlucky in the penalty shootout. and it was the mentality of the Roma players that was a little weak in the penalty shootout. And sevilla is superior in the mentality of the players too.
Mentality of Roma and Sevilla players are the same and difference is shown only in penalties. Sevilla have more players who experienced such tough tests in World Cup 2022 but Roma don't have such players. Dybala, Matic, Pellegrini were sent out because they were not able to play until the penalty time.

Losing several important keys in PSG's game strategy will certainly have a big impact on their performance next season. Messi and Sergio Ramos have left, and Neymar has reportedly left as well, now Mbappe will experience hard work which is quite troublesome, several supporting players who always help every time he appears do not rule out the possibility that Mbappe will experience a slight setback
Finally Mbappe gets what he wanted in last few seasons. He became a only and biggest super star in PSG after Messi and likely Neymar departures. Now he will have a bigger responsibility to carry PSG to titles. He will have to show that he is able to shine without Messi and Neymar.

It is time for Mbappe to show his talent and high ego.

Quote
If Madrid offer at that time made him take the right decision, then his fate would not be like this. Taking on a heavy duty at PSG is not easy, even though Messi is still there does not guarantee that PSG will continue to benefit. Lens' position greatly benefits because he can take advantage of PSG unstable situation both in terms of play and players.
I did not read that Real Madrid have ever returned with a new offer for Mbappe after the last summer. Even latest days when Benzema confirmed that he will leave Real Madrid and end his contract with Real Madrid one season ahead of the contract expiration.
1159  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is There A Bitcoin Exchange That Pays Most of Fees for You? on: June 08, 2023, 04:11:32 PM
If you see an exchange that claim to pay your transaction fees for you, you should avoid it. It will most probably be a scam exchange.
They can be either a scam exchange and try to gain more users before they run away with money by a scam exit.

Better, they don't run away with money but they will collapse by rotten management like FTX exchange. In 2020 or till 2021, FTX exchange waived out transaction fee on Ethereum blockchain for FTX users. Transaction fee on Ethereum blockchain was very expensive, $50 to $200 for one transaction in fomo times of DeFi 2.0, GameFi, Metaverse.

You can easily imagine how much money FTX wasted for their users.

Jose Mourinho has a clear vision and mission and even though Roma is not a wealthy team that has a lot of money, so far the Roma team has improved a lot after the last 2 seasons when coached by Jose Mourinho
Mourinho is a very experienced coach and he has a successful career with a strong belief in his tactics. He clearly knows what he needs for his squad and he is good to boost player mentality for a common interest of the club. If a club totally supports Mourinho with his management and force their players into discipline, Mourinho can bring success to a club. His career shows this from Porto, Chelsea, Inter Milan, Real Madrid, Manchester United and Roma. When a club supports players and don't support Mourinho, bad results will come as we saw some times in Chelsea, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur.

Modern football with abundant money from rich club ownership gives too much power to players and managers, coaches nowadays have more difficulty to control dress rooms of their clubs. It is only harmful for a club success and if you need best example, look at PSG.

Quote
but now Mourinho has been rumored to move to another team, there is a team that is eyeing him, namely PSG, I really regret it if the coach leaves because it is very likely that Rome will fall back if left by Jose Mourinho.
Mourinho found another successful chapter for his career in Rome with AS Roma but he is ambitious and want to get bigger success with Roma. He needs more money for transfer to buy players and build up a stronger squad. His future in Rome will depend on his meeting with Roma director board members and a promised transfer budget he gets if he stays in Rome.
