Napoli actually has several strikers on their team but only Osimhen who able to performing well and scores many goals and until week 27 Napoli has 64 goals in Serie A and 21 goals of which were scored by Osimhen which mean almost 30% of Napoli total goals is came from Osimhen so losing him will have bad impact for Napoli and no wonder Napoli always looking for ways to keep Osimhen at least until next season
They have Giovani Simeone, a son of Atletico Madrid coach, but he is not a high quality striker. It makes sense to think that Napoli will have trouble if they lose Osimhen by injuries or transfer and have to use Giovani as their main striker. Giovani did had some good performances as a substitution but big difference when you play as a main striker and as an alternative striker.

Quote
And about Kvaratskhelia this player basically is a midfielder but i don't know why Spalletti always be played him as a winger but this strategy were successfully to makes Kvaratskhelia performing well and he cannot be said to be a replacement for Osimhen because these players had different positions
Kravatskhelia is like a main source of creativeness in Napoli. In previous seasons, they had Insigne but luckily found Kravatskhelia when Insigne left Naples in the last summer. More luckily as they got him with cheap transfer cost and he performs well with his first season in Napoli.

He helps Napoli system operates very smooth and with his appearance, opponents will have to pay attention on him and Osimhen as these two players combine with each other very well. This will give other players in Napoli squad more space to play and can boost their performance a little bit better.

Napoli with Osimhen + Kravatskhelia would be different than Napoli without one of them or both of them.

I've been thinking for a while on how the perception of the public will turn into positive in regards to bitcoin and other cryptocurrency? There is a big problem on how the public see the bitcoin because the 1st ever thought that pops in their mind is something negative and I don't blame them because there are reasons or past history why they have thoughts thats comes to them like that.
You can not change minds, perspectives of all people especially the elderly.

If you want to do communication propaganda to change the crowd perspective towards Bitcoin, it's good but if you do this, you will recognize that there are many types of people in our society. Some people are open-minded and ready to listen and learn new things. They will easily become Bitcoiners after your propaganda. Some other people will need longer time to absorb new things but they can still change their minds. The last type are people who would prefer to stick with what they are familiar with like fiat currencies, banks and they will never accept Bitcoin.

Napoli - Milan game is going to be more important for Milan when we look at their conditions in the standings.
It is a big match but it is more important for AC Milan. They need to win it to continue their race with other clubs and keep their fourth position in Serie A. If they win it, it will give them belief that they can beat Napoli in Champions League quarter final as well.

With Napoli, at least they must have a draw even a loss won't impact their chance to win Serie A. However, if they lose in this match, they will be affected for Champions League quarter final matches and I am sure they don't want it.

Quote
Napoli are already very close to declaring their championship in the league. Even if they lose points here it wouldn't change so many things for them. But for Milan it is important to get some points because they are fighting for finishing the season in top four to join the Champions League once again. However I don't think Napoli will lose points in this game. Milan still have the same kind of issues so Napoli can benefit from this.
I think if Napoli lose 2 points, it is acceptable for them and with AC Milan, it is not too bad for them. AC Milan knows that beating Napoli is very hard in this season if Napoli play with best resource and full motivation to win it. I have reason to think about a draw as Napoli will need to prepare for Champions League when they are fighting for their first title.

U are right. This is one of the reasons I present to people as per why PSG don't do well in some competitions outside French league. The confidence PSG has while playing in their local league isn't buoyant enough to keep them in competitions like champions league.
PSG has been very poor this season but yet, no other team in the French league was able to overthrough them from the top position in the French league standing. This alone shows how weak the league is.
They don't have good reputation in Champions League and even they have enough quality, it's not enough for them to make opponents have fearful feeling. In some big matches, PSG got very good differences like 2 or 3 goals ahead but they collapsed very easily. Among big clubs in Champions League, last 10 years, PSG are the most victims of historic come-backs like with Barcelona, Chelsea and Real Madrid.

If they have reputation like Real Madrid, opponents will easily give up if PSG led 2 or 3 goals. They don't have it now and they have to work to get it for their club in Champions League.

As strong as PSG's squad is, better performances were expected from them. They cannot play well in Ligue 1. Maybe they will win the Ligue 1 title, but I am not satisfied with their performance. A better performance was expected from such a strong and star-studded squad. PSG's performance in the Champions League was very disappointing. They lost badly against Bayern Munich. As PSG's performance is not improving after spending huge sums on star players. So now PSG management should look for an experienced coach. If the coach is experienced, maybe their performance will be somewhat stable.
It is acceptable if they have a bit difficult in Ligue 1 but go far in Champions League. However reality is they failed in Champions League at the first knock-out phase, round of 16 so any excuse for their not good enough performance in Ligue 1 does not mean anything. It's unacceptable for their fans to exit Champions League at round of 16 and see their star players turn to be meeky sheeps in Champions League.

In the last two seasons, PSG did not repeat their successful season when they went to Champions League final and failed under hands of Bayern Munich. Three seasons later, they failed against Bayern but at round of 16. No revenge after all for PSG after 3 years.

Juventus still has a chance to get into the top 4 in the remaining matches remaining until the end of this season, player loyalty is of course the main capital for Juventus to stay consistent on the winning path in the remaining matches, considering there are many clubs above it such as Atalanta, Rome. Milan and Inter have not been so consistent in their last few games and this could be Juventus' chance to catch up
They have less chance compares to above clubs from Lazio, Inter Milan, AC Milan, AS Roma to Atalanta but they have a best form than all those clubs. It gives Juventus hope that if they can continue it, they will be able to reduce gaps with those clubs and will gradually see their chance becomes bigger. First they have to surpass Atalanta and chase AS Roma. When they surpass AS Roma, they can look at top four with a nearer vision and smaller gap.

Indeed, Juventus will be a threat to Roma in the remainder of this season. Juventus' performance has improved significantly since being penalized by the point deduction and managed to secure 3 additional points in the previous big match. I think maybe Jose Mourinho should start to improve again with his players, the problem is if we look at Roma's game now it looks very boring and lacks creativity to make chances that produce bigger percentages make goals.
They will be a threat for both AS Roma and AC Milan as I think they will surpass Atalanta in next one or two mach days. Juventus will have big matches with direct competitors for top four position and it is their chance to make their dream comes true. They have matches to control their destiny and if they win, top four will belong to them.

I don't think AC Milan and AS Roma will play weakly and lose points easily to Juventus but Juventus actually fight very strong in this season. 15 points deduction does not pull them to the mud and in reality they are climbing up again.

If you have a wallet where the txn is to the same address as the sender ... without any change address... what was the formula to be able to derive the key from it ?

So from 123abc --->  to 123abc  ...
If you had 2 of these you would be able to pull the key from it from what i recall...
Derive the key from it, pull the key from it, what did you mean?

Do you want to derive a private key from a public address?

It is impossible because if it is possible, your bitcoin will be stolen, my bitcoin will be stolen and bitcoin will have zero value.

Xabi Alonso influence working amazingly at Bayer Leverkusen, and they are having one of the best comeback in Bundesliga with coming out of relegation zone and now having 9th spot and beating Bayern Munich at home mean things are having good chance, and they can bring better results in this season as well now they are going to play quarter-final which is looking easy on papers, but real fight will be on ground which is not easy but if they will be able to beat teams like Roma or Feyenoord this is going to be big for them and their bright future.
Xabi and Xavi, two X-key midfielders of Spain in their golden era began to achieve good results with their clubs, Bayer Leverkusen and Barcelona. The fight to exit from Bundesliga relegation zone of Bayer Leverkusen in this season is very exciting and unbelievable. Unbelievable because just in the past season, they ended it at a third position. Their poor performance in early of this season is comparable to Sevilla poor performance in La Liga but so far Leverkusen shown that they bounced back better from bottom.

Quote
Having better results in Europa Cup and then beating big teams in Bundesliga is giving them good support for the better future in coming season and with this now Alonso is also under radar of Real Madrid for the next coach which is also impressive because this young dude can bring good changes in big teams.
It's too soon to say that  Leverkusen can participate in top range of Bundesliga in a next season. At least they must end this season and stay in Bundesliga then have to check themselves and improve in the summer.

The Juventus team is now taking every match very seriously. Because Juventus don't want to make any more mistakes. Currently there is no such thing as a weak team, every team is capable of building their own. That's why Juventus will never take Sporting team lightly.
They do hav to do this seriously because going far in Europa League and get a position in top four of Serie A or winning Europa League to be eligible for Champions League 2023 - 2024 (next season) means a lot for Juventus financially. It will help them to have more budget for transfer to rebuild their team. It helps them to avoid departure of star players and together there are big net effects if they can not play in Champions League next season.

I am not sure Juventus can split their focus perfectly for this session, because when I look they are still on unstable at the moment, their schedule is very busy on Seri A, and also have a semifinal Copa Italian cup, Juventus are just growing up and still need time for recovery which I think they still not ready to deal with this busy match on europa.
They only have two missions in this season, Serie A and Europa League. Chance in Europa League looks better in Serie A when they will have to depend on other club performances. In Europa League, they don't have to rely on other clubs and only need to beat each opponent round by round (quarter final, semi final and final). In Serie A, they need to play well and need luck to join top four and I think they will pay more focus on Europa League.

They will face Sporting Lisbon. The first match will be played in Italy. I think confidence in Juventus has increased lately. I am one of those who trust Juventus like everyone else. Juventus has the power and squad quality to beat Sporting Lisbon. Even though Lisbon was a tough team, they had a good luck with Arsenal and they won. The same may not happen against Juventus.
Beating Sporting Lisbon won't be easy after they surprisingly won over Arsenal. Sporting will have higher confidence after such winning and become a little more dangerous. Juventus must watch videos and analyze weakness of Sporting to beat this opponent who are not easily to give up even after they have conceded goal and disadvantage.

For me, this is the most important on the list.
Risk management strategy involves identifying potential risks, assessing the likelihood and impact of these risks, and implementing measures to mitigate them.
A lot of new people coming to cryptocurrency trading going broke because of a lack of risk management. They always expect that trading cryptocurrency is easy money.
It is important but before it, there is another important step. Capital allocation for trading, investment and other things. A trader should not use all capital for either trading or investment. A good strategy is have good capital allocation for investment (main priority), trading (sub priority) and expenses for life (it must have a part in capital allocation).

If all investment and trading fail, we must have last resort to survive.
1432  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 25, 2023, 06:44:47 AM
In fact, there is still an opportunity for Juventus to take advantage of the situation considering that the clubs above it, such as Atalanta, Milan, Intermilan and Roma, have not been good enough in their last 5 matches, so Juventus can pursue that to get into the top 4, there are still games left until the end of the season which can be focused on continuing to win if you want to get into the top 4
Juventus will have some big direct matches with their competitors and with only 7 points less than top four, if Juventus can win those matches, they will self open a gate to participate in top four. If their competitors play bad in other matches, a gate for Juventus will become bigger but they must play well first.

Juventus on good run despite losing against Roma
In fact Juventus had good run before that defeat in Rome but they recovered strongly after that.

Quote
Atlanta, AC Milan and Roma are giving poor results which is clearly helping Juventus cause for the going high and if we have two or three more bad weeks for these teams than no one can stop them for having spot into top five teams for this season ever after losing 15 points.
Together with very good form of Juventus, unstable and bad forms from competitors help Juventus to reduce big gaps to about 7 points against a fourth to sixth positions. Participating in top five or top six is very possible for Juventus but top four will be a little bit unsure. They must play well and need bad forms from competitors to get into top four. Many conditions must be met but they have to try themselves and don't give up too early.

Yeah but they should also ask those whose accusation is already resolved to change the title of their accusation to resolve and lock the topic because when one researches topic about accusations on Duckdice those without resolution in the title will still come out, but it's not good for the official announcement to see so many complaints, new visitors of the thread might think that there's a lot of issues playing in their platform, they should encourage their players to ask the support about their issues first and not post it here right away.
They should ask the user to change topic title and lock resolved case and related scam accusation topic immediately after they inform the user about a case. I really believe that with many scam accusations created by newbie accounts, they will not return to the forum after their cases are resolved and if they don't have new open scam accusation in future.

If DuckDice team are late to request user to do that, a topic will remain as active scam accusation at least with its title. When people search with Google, maybe they will stop at topic title, not care to read all details.

Initially it is Byteball project which later was rebranded to Obyte.

Coinmarkecap does have a note that project was rebranded. I guess they only add such notes for rebranded projects after a day they deployed that note on their website. Byteball rebranded years ago, not in the last bull run.

However if you come to their wallet download page, you will see their wallet description as "Download your Obyte (Byteball) wallet"

Edit: I misspelled the title. It's fixed now. Although it says "crypto", the video is very much about Bitcoin (and ETH NFTs).
Bitcoin is a part of cryptocurrency ecosystem but it is a most important cryptocurrency. Many people think Bitcoin is all about cryptocurrency and if any scam in cryptocurrency occurs, it is motivated by or related to Bitcoin.

Bitcoin has big impacts on alternative cryptocurrrencies aka altcoins but it is not responsible for all scam in crypto.

Ethereum with its smart contract ERC-20 chain is a perfect space for scam projects. NFT projects related to GameFi, NFT, Metaverse ... which are bad with their tokenomics designs and many projects have bad security (no security audits), rug pulls. It is more precisely if the Youtube channel owner makes that video focuses more on scam projects on ERC-20 chain, Binance Smart Chain, Solana ... Focusing the video on Bitcoin is not relevant.
1436  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ UEFA Euro 2024 in Germany ⚽ - Qualifiers on: March 25, 2023, 02:48:55 AM
Shocking results we witnessed in the euro24 qualifiers with top countries humiliating the inferior ones with high goals scored. France dominated Netherlands and won the game with a quadrable score of 4 nil. It was an easy win for the Frenchmen and the dutch Coach, Ronald Koeman clear the air about the unmatched strength the Frenchmen pulled in the game. Kylian Mbappe nets a classy brace in the game while Antoine Grizeman and Dayot Upamecano opens scoring for Didier Deschamps side.
France are the most impressive national team globally in the last 25 years. They have very good performances in big tournaments like World Cup, Euro since their first World Cup title at home in France 98.

Since Euro 2016 and World Cup 2018 success, France continue to have very good squad with perfect combination of old and young players. They look to repeat a great success cycle of Spain years ago but they must aim at winning one or two more tittles with this player generation. In football, success for a club or a national team won't last forever. There is a cycle for success and failure as well as period for rebuilding progress. Like Spain, after great success within 10 years, they are struggling to get such success again.

Since World Cup 2022, it seems France had some internal conflicts that potentially damage their power to win titles. Deschamps must resolves such internal conflicts good and avoid similar ones in future.

This is not good altcoin project, and will not have success in the market. The sender can not just send the coins from the wallet, but need to send the address in the chat or send text file to receiver through E mail. Monero is much better.
What did you mean?  Huh

Obyte has wallet sofwares for Windows, MacOs, Android, iOS. You can download them from download and can receive or send Obyte directly in wallet. If you want privacy, you can use their privacy currency Blackbytes in chat by pairing two wallets of receiver and sender.

Finally, $ARB came to the crypto world and all are in the hype, FUD and other ones (unfortunately) got scammed by fake contracts.
With the evolution and growth of decentralized exchanges together with open source code, everyone can launch a new token and add liquidity on DEX. It's perfect chance for scammers to use fake token and scam naive people.

Two golden pages to start searching for basic information in cryptocurrency are Coinmarketcap.com and Coingecko.com.

Visit them, type in Search box like a project name and use their results to double check with Google.

For hot projects like Arbitrum, its trading volume in general and liquidity pools on DEX should be very big. So it's easy to detect fake tokens by looking at their liquidity which is surely low.

Until now I am 100% sure that blockchain is the future, at that time there were still many who underestimated this blockchain because it had not happened yet. I once saw Bill Gates' interview on YouTube, about the internet, email, social media, he was even laughed at because at that time it was a strange thing.
Why are you not sure about future for Blockchain technology and its adoption in society?

Bitcoin pioneered blockchain industry and it is a first successful blockchain project in history. It changed this industry forever and attracted more people to join, develop the ecosystem and help it to be accepted more globally.

With public ledgers given by blockchain technology and with total controls on their funds by owning private keys, it gives benefit to people no matter how poor or rich they are, what socioeconomic status they have. They are all fair with public ledgers and don't rely on banks to control their cryptocurrency.

Old people will more hardly to accept new technologies and related products. It makes sense because after a few decades, world will have asset switch between generations and usually from elderly to young people.
1440  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 23, 2023, 10:51:56 AM
That's indeed would be an amazing result for them, if they able to finish in UCL zone. But instead of getting full points in the remaining matches, it could be easier for them to just focus in Europa League so if they win it, automatically they belong to UCL next season. After Arsenal got eliminated, their biggest rival is Man Utd, while in Serie A, there are so many teams have great quality.
If Juventus can finish in UCL zone, it is a great success for them if we take into account their 15 points deduction in mid of season. However it would be considered serious failures for other clubs that try to compete for a spot in UCL zone if they fail against Juventus after all.

If that happens, it is fair enough to say they are not deserved to get such spots because failing over a club that have 15 points deduction is unacceptable and they can not blame on anything for their failures.

By leading the top of the standings with a point difference that is quite far away, sometimes waiting for results when they meet is no longer so awaited, because it is possible that Napoli will reduce the way they play because they will focus on being able to win in the Champions League quarter-finals or so they can make a surprise in another match where they also will face Milan so April is the month when Milan vs Napoli or Napoli vs Milan will meet 3 times.
3 meetings for them and with Napoli, only two meetings in Champions League are their priorities but with AC Milan, they will have all three hard matches to play. Napoli are bringing fearful experience to many clubs from Italy to Europe and they have shown that they can play at world-class level. They are confident about themselves and are not fearful about any club they are facing with in this season.

We must see how they won big and destroyed Liverpool as well as Frankfurt to see their quality and confidence.
