It is such a shame that Juventus are having a similar scenario after so many years. The supporters must be in shock now for certain. Everything started to be going good in the Serie A recently actually but this is a huge disappointment now.
Who won't feel shocked with this news? Especially it was released during a break when World Cup is on-going.

Quote
This crisis might be related to the Ronaldo transfer as well. Because we all remember how much money they spent to sign him and to pay his salary. This must be one of the reasons of a financial crisis in the team. I believe there is a financial crisis now otherwise I don't have any idea about what could be the main reason of this.
On a tip of iceberg, it is true but under the tip, there are more reasons. A general performance of Juventus is not only come from Cristiano Ronaldo and if we blame all bad things on him, it is unfair.

He moved from Real Madrid to Juventus by an expensive transfer but Juventus did get it back from jersey sales. They sold $60M in only 24 hours. A burden from Ronaldo salary is big too but it happened together with the Covid-19 pandemic, financial crisis and worse endings of the club in both Champions League and Serie A recent seasons.

Napoli's chances for the title this season are indeed very large considering the difference in points they managed to have between other competitors. Nobody would think Milan, Juventus or any other team would easily overtake Napoli at the top of the table if they knew how Napoli performed in the first half of the season. But the league isn't over yet, so it's possible that things that are currently difficult will be easy in the second half of this season, including Napoli's failure to maintain the current top of the standings.
With the unknown crisis from Juventus, Napoli already have one less competitor in the race for Scudetto. With crisis like this, Juventus will hardly to continue their good performance and will likely not be able to beat Napoli in this race. Even maintaining a position in top four looks like a outreaching task for Juventus. There are many competitors like Lazio, Roma, Inter Milan that are very ready to take over a third position from Juventus.

Hype will always follow Elon but know that whales are working behind that so probably it can be manipulated so I wont take such risk to support that project not unless it provides good service and utility in cryptomarket. There’s no question about the innovation my only concern is that, who will control that project at the end of the day. Creating this stabelcoin might not be their option for now.
It is less risky for Elon Musk to create a token for Twitter than to create a stable coin for Twitter.

In order to launch a stable coin, he must have a collateral for that stable coin and I don't believe Elon Musk have enough money for it. Furthermore, stable coin is risky to handle well and avoid de-peg problems.

Another reason is there is USDT from Tether, BUSD from Binance that can be used by Elon Musk and Twitter. They can simply add those stable coins as payment methods on Twitter, for buying Verified badges or Tips to other Twitter users and any feature can be launched in future. It is good enough to use available good ones rather than create your own.

BUSD is a good candidate because Elon has good connection with Changpeng Zao and even got a financial support from Binance for his deal to buy Twitter.

If it is related to the Champions League regarding PSG, indeed any results can still occur, but if it is related to PSG's position in League 1 then of course no one will be able to doubt PSG. Also, if we consider the results of their national team in this World Cup, it is clear that France has better results than Germany.
PSG have many international players so that they are facing with more consequences from tough matches in World Cup. The tournament is desired for playing by many star players and they surely play World Cup matches with all energy and efforts they have. In return, they might be exhausted after World Cup or worse will get injured in these matches.

Quote
Meanwhile, most of the German national team players themselves come from Bayern Munich and so, if we consider this result, we can also say that PSG has a good chance to win later.
About French and German teams, they both can go very far in the tournament but we will have to wait for ending of group stage. Germany have risk to be disqualified if they can not win their last match. If Germany are out too soon, then Bayern Munich might get benefit for their clash with PSG in Champions League later.
1844  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to earn 9-10% APY using USDT and a simple strategy on: November 29, 2022, 11:19:56 AM
I won't open my account on any DeFi platform and send my coin including USDT there to earn APY.

If a desired rate is about 10%, I would wait a few months for a market crash to buy and enjoy its bounce. After falling 20% or 30%, altcoins will bounce back 10% at least and it is enough for my target profit rate.

I will pick top altcoins like Ethereum or BNB, not pick DeFi or NFT tokens because with those tokens, I don't know will they crash more like LUNA, UST or FTT or will bounce back. Ethereum and BNB are safer choices for me.

That's why real madrid was looking for an alternative striker for him. There must be a backup for him in the current line up.
Real Madrid always aim at winning titles, in La Liga and in Champions League so only one old striker like Bemzema is not enough for them, even he just won Ballon d'Or months ago.

Quote
That's why osimhen already rumoured linked to the real madrid. Harry kane has also become a potential candidate that already included in madrid's list for the next transfer season. It seems like that madrid will be buying lots of players in january. Benzema is always helping real madrid to win any match but there's no ETA about when he can solve his problem. I meant real madrid must have a backup for him.
Osimhen has a style like Didier Drogba and he relies on his strength and speed to beat opponental defenders and score goals. He is young but already has bad injury record that I believe is a bad point for him when Real Madrid consider and make a decision to buy him or buy another striker.

Quote
Madrid can use another striker that has similar play style with benzema once benzema was still getting injury.
With my respect to Osimhen and other strikers, I can say it is impossible to find a striker who has similar style and skills like Benzema. He is not onky a striker but can play as a play maker too. He has a very good team-mateship and does not play for himself. He is very ready to help his team mates just to get best result for his team.

Many years played with and support Cristiano help Benzema to have very unique skill set.

I'm pretty sure Chelsea signed Aubameyang because of the number of goals he was scoring when he joined Barcelona, he scored up to 10 goals in the few number of games he played when he arrived at Barcelona which made me conclude his poor form at the end of his Arsenal career was all acted but now I understand he was so lazy on the pitch which also caused Barcelona to sell him in the summer and now Chelsea have to face same set backs with Aubameyang leading their attacking line.
Aubameyang has good record in Arsenal and he has two seasons with 22 goals for Arsenal in Premier League, 2018 - 2019 and 2019 - 2020. Later, he got conflicts with coach and the club, then he had to move to Barcelona at which he revived his career again.

I agree with you that Chelsea should take into consideration his performance in Barcelona for their decision to bring him back to Premier League. In addition, his past performance in the league is another advantage for him too. Nevertheless, ageing is what Aubameyang has to suffer more seriously after each season. He now is no longer himself 2 or 3 seasons ago when he was younger.

And the general performance of Chelsea is bad that of course impacts Aubameyang too.
1847  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: November 29, 2022, 01:51:34 AM
Benzema is indeed a record scorer at Real Madrid but currently Benzema often does not fully contribute to Real Madrid due to the injury he has experienced, while at Real Madrid no one can replace Benzema's position, therefore Real Madrid must buy another new player who has expertise such as that possessed by Benzema to replace Benzema when he could not participate in the field.
Benzema belongs to top scorers in Real Madrid history but the past season is likely his best season for Real Madrid. He is very old already and even the past season, his performance is very surprising. I knew Benzema is a very good player since his young time in Lyon and many years in Real Madrid. But having a past season at his age is unbelievable.

However, after that he has problems with his body that is normal for old players and I don't think he will be able to repeat another amazing season like the past one.

Even if Benzema can recover, Benzema is possible to get injured again. You must know that Benzema already got injured several times so far, it is proof that he isn't in the best condition this season. Real Madrid can't rely on Benzema, they need a new striker to keep the strength of their attacking line. Real Madrid only has Benzema who plays well as a center forward, there is no other player who can replace his role in the current Real Madrid squad.
Strikers from a same generation of Benzema like Cavani, Suarez, Ibrahimovic and Cristiano Ronaldo started to have problems with body, more injuries, less playing matches or decreasing performance. Benzema is not an exception, if it is not this season, next one, it should come very soon.

Real Madrid know about this fact and they are trying to replace Benzema with Mbappe but failed in the last summer. Who will be a next striker they will aim at after Mbappe? Haaland already joined Manchester City in the past summer too.

They do have a great squad with a lot of talented players (Lukaku, De Bruyne, Hazard, Courtouis, ...) but they are getting older and I think this worldcup is their last chance really as some players will retire after this worldcup. I hope they will get through but they really need to up their game!
Lukaku only recovers from his injury recently and he is not at his best fitness for tough matches. De Bruyne has problems with his mentality in this World Cup and from his complain, it looks like he is not really ready for World Cup. Eden Hazard simply is no longer himself and how a player who does not have a position and regular slot to play in his club can be a captain of Belgium and has a default position in their squad. It's unacceptable and unreasonable choice from Roberto Martinez.

Courtouis is a world-class goalkeeper but he can not save all shots and can not score goals to bring Belgium to wins.

Thanks! Belgium has a great young squad which is why I'm still expecting them to qualify for the R16 though defeating Croatia won't be easy.
Honestly, I wish Croatia will secure their position and qualify for Round 16, not Belgium. So far Croatia have better performance than Belgium and it is a last big tournament for Luka Modric.

A game that is both thrilling and rewarding. Cameroon has made a great comeback. However, Cameroon would have won. It is Cameroon's fault that the game ended in a draw. The team comes back from two goals down to end its eight-game losing streak in the World Cup. With its unpredictable moments, this World Cup stands out among the best ever.
This come back helps both Cameroon and Serbia have a small chance to get over the gate in the last match day. Both teams have one point and other two teams which will meet today, Brazil and Switzerland have three points.

It is unbelievable to see Serbia wasted two goals and ended the match with only one point. Anyway, Cameroon did not give up, had strong mentality and they successfully equalized the match.

It is still a surprise to me how well Newcastle have been performing this season and I believe even the players and staff will be surprised with the team's progress.
This season can be a good foundation for them if they complete it in top four. In the next summer, with an attraction to be qualified for Champions League, they will be able to convince star players to join their club and if possible, they can have a change in coach position.

A better coach, more star players for a season 2023 - 2024, Newcatsle can challenge for Premier League trophy. Of course it is assumption for future with a condition that they can have a good ending in this season, within top four of Premier League.

Quote
The takeover definitely played a major role in the improvement of the team and with the signings from recent transfers the team is performing better and now able to compete with the league's top clubs.
As said, an ending in this season can be a start for bigger and more ambitious plans. Will Newcatsle achieve it finally after impression they have made so far?
1851  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: November 28, 2022, 03:22:29 AM
It would be inaccurate to say that Karim Benzema's legs are very fragile even though he is currently injured and is undergoing his recovery period. Because he has also given good things and what is expected of Real Madrid and for the second half of this season, it cannot be concluded thoroughly before looking at the actual condition of Karim Benzema. Because after recovering from injury, Karim Benzema will return again to strengthen the Real Madrid line-up.
This season remarks a big change in Benzema career when his body started to get more problems with injuries. He already reaches to a best of his career with Ballon d'Or and personally he should feel happy and satisfy with that achievement. He also has won so many titles with Lyon and Real Madrid so in club career, he has a successful one too.

The only big regret for Benzema is a very limited chance to play in French team and it seems it is a big minus in his career. Nobody can be perfect and Benzema must to accept it too. This World Cup is very like a last chance for him in French team but he lost it too by an injury.

Real Madrid will have to be very ready for a near future without Benzema. This season of Benzema is like the past season for Sergio Ramos in PSG. He missed most of the past season but managed to come back strongly in this season. Will Benzema can return and contribute more for Los Blancos next season?
1852  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: November 28, 2022, 03:17:17 AM
I don't think it's a surprising result anymore, because last season also Jose Mourinho couldn't do much when the team's performance continued to decline. This season the results like the previous season repeated again, Roma were good at the start but as time went on Roma remained difficult to survive at least in the top five of the Serie A standings.
This season does not end and it only goes a half of it. There are lot of matches in the rest of season after World Cup and we will return to this discussion in May 2023 when Serie A ends.

Quote
Therefore, the change of coach for Roma so far has in fact not resulted in major changes because the previous coach Paulo Fonseca if I'm not mistaken, Paulo Fonseca also couldn't make Roma strong in the top five, just like what happened during Jose Mourinho's coaching.
Roma's hopes for Jose Mourinho are indeed great but unfortunately, Jose Mourinho really seems to have lost his specialty to make a strong team in the local league.
At least with Jose Mourinho, Roma becomes stronger in cup format and the trophy in EUFA Conference League last season is a good confirmation for what Jose Mourinho can do with Roma. He made history for the club because that is a first title in Europe for Roma, the first ever in their history.

Quote
Although indeed, Jose Mourinho was able to give Roma a title for the Europa Conference League title and also, winning this title became a good history because Jose Mourinho and Roma became the first team to win the Europa Conference League title.
But I think that achievement is not the main goal, because the main goal is that Roma is expected to come back strong in the title race in Serie A, and Jose Mourinho still hasn't found the right way to return Roma as a strong team in Serie A.
Jose Mourinho is a coach and he can not play on behalf of players. Looking at their players please, they don't have too many changes in their squad and only Dybala is a most significant player they got from the past summer transfer. Dybala is important player for Mourinho in his mission to help Roma completes this season in top four.

This season, their attacking is worse than the past one when Tammy Abraham suddenly has very poor performance so far. The striker wasted too many opportunities and it is very different than the past season. So Roma and Mourinho will need both Dybala, Zaniolo and Tammy with better performances after World Cup.

Stop loss orders are important but if you want to have a more advancing order, you can try Stop limit order.

One of the Best Weapons in Trading
What is a stop limit order ? (Binance Academy).

Stop loss and stop limit orders can help you to reduce your loss and it gives you chances to rebuy same tokens but at cheaper prices if you still want to reinvest in same tokens. When you buy back at lower prices, you can increase total tokens you own.

Napoli will need to keep their squad unchanged if they want to continue their good form and win the title. Napoli are playing well because the understanding between their players is very good now. Also we see good performance from Napoli in every match due to their good match strategy. If any of Napoli's key players leave the squad in the next winter transfer window, it will have a negative impact on their overall performance.
They will not want to sell their players in January and changes can come from injuries by World Cup or very high bids from super rich clubs. Most of clubs are not ready to spend too high budget for January transfer market. Star players don't want to change clubs in middle of season too.

Napoli will need Osimhem to return without injury then they can give him one or two matches for resting, to recharge energy and to avoid unnecessary injury after all. They do need contribution from the striker, not only by his goals.
1855  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: November 26, 2022, 12:25:18 AM
If he was better than them or more suitable for the strategy used by Xavi, he would play more time. Having other options even in the benches is important thing for a team. In Netherlands game vs Ecuador, he wasn't that useful and some people criticised him and the coach for the change done there.
He is not a favorite player of Xavi and things change when coach and tactic changed.  Before Xavi, Dembele was an useless player in Barcelona but now he is a very important for Xavi and Barcelona. It also helps Dembele to have a good position in France team too.

Memphis Depay is a good attacking player but he does not match with Barcelona tactic. They don't actualy need attacking players who can not adapt to their tiki taka. He will have to find another club in either January or in the next summer.
1856  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: USDT or BNB? on: November 25, 2022, 02:54:04 AM
When comparing both stablecoin I think BUSD has more advantage than USDT. USDT has been having some issues lately as it constantly getting unpegged from the dollar but BUSD strongly has the backing of Binance exchange as such it's unlikely that it'll lose it dollar peg unless Binance exchange was to collapse.
It's also easier since BUSD is on the Binance chain and you can use same address to carryout transactions of coins on multiple blockchain like Ethereum, Polygon etc
I failed to understand why OP wanted to compare between USDT and BNB, they are different asset type.

USDT is a stable coin and BNB is a native token for Binance Smart Chain.

A better comparison is between USDT and BUSD both are stable coins. I would like to pick BUSD than USDT but they are both good with solid collateral behind. They are not algorithmic stable coins like LUNA and UST, TRX and TUSD.

Else if OP wanted to ask whether OP should keep his capital in USDT or BNB. I would say both options are good. USDT is a stable coin and if OP thinks bear market does not end, having capital in stable coin is good enough.

BNB is good because it is a native currency for Binance Smart Chain from Binance, a solid exchange. The token has very good performance in this bear market and does not lose too much value in last one year.

Bitcoin keeps its leadership in cryptocurrency and Ethereum keeps its leadership in altcoins and smart contract industries. I have belief about Bitcoin and Ethereum as two biggest leaders in cryptocurrency.

It won't be easy to take over a second position of Ethereum and almost impossible to take over a King position of Bitcoin. A best candidate to take over Ethereum is Binance Smart Chain but it won't happen soon. If it happens, I believe it will happen in either 2028 or 2032, two or three bull runs later.

Dominations of Bitcoin and Ethereum are too high according to Coinmarketcap: BTC: 38.2%; ETH: 17.6%. It tells us truth about leaderships of BTC and ETH in crypto

Is it true that Metamask is not a decentralised wallet? I watch a video right now explaining that Metamask wallet collects data😲 and they use infura which is centralized, even Ip address are collected?
They claim that they don't collect user information and wallet seed. After years of operation, there is no detection or complain from community, users about that but maybe there are things hidden behind their statement. Who knows?

I am sure your IP addresses can be collected easily by Metamask.

They are non custodial wallets and you have access to wallet seeds but you only don't know whether Metamask owns it too.

A good non custodial wallet is an open-source and you can download, verify it and use it offline. Offline means you can create your wallet offline, without Internet connection.

I know that nothing is certain. If however, PSG is not able to bring home the Champions League Trophy, which is the ultimate goal of everyone involved with PSG, what is the point of spending so much money? Just to win the Ligue 1 title?
Champions League is certainly a biggest target of any player in club career. For star players who accept big salary deals from PSG, they join the club with intention to win Champions League definitely.

Quote
I know that it is obviously challenging work to bring in trophies. It is very easy to sit at home and write about something. It is extremely difficult to achieve that Trophy on the field. Despite this, the frustrations of people would not have been sparked if PSG actually performed the way they should. PSG has often lost easy matches which they should have won. That is really unexpected and unacceptable.
They should win those matches if they did not make terrible personal mistakes. However, one player can make mistakes but others should cover him and bring PSG to a final win. At least, one mistake causes one conceded goals and it is not the end for PSG in a single match. In some matches, they even have too big difference in aggregated result but they wasted it very easy.

Quote
And I agree that just bringing in star players is not going to be enough. They have to be someone who can actually impose authority over the star players on the team.
Club's history is important because it will help their players have belief in history and increase their mentality in important matches. It is what PSG currently is lack of but history is made by players, coaches and others with time. PSG has to make their history in Champions League that is not easy before they can win a first title there.
1860  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: November 24, 2022, 11:22:48 AM
As what happened to PSG last season, they failed to hold the title, but they still hold the big players in their team, like Mbappee, They have a lot of football stars, but they failed to win the Champions League last season. In fact, when Mbapee really wanted to leave PSG, they actually offered a position and also a lot of money to keep Mbape at PSG. Yes, it's a little different. However, maybe this season the conditions will be different if they fail many times.
When they lost concentration for Ligue 1 and other clubs played better than usual, they lose their title in the league. Unfortunately for PSG competitors, it does not happen too often. If PSG play at their best, no club in Ligue 1 can take the title from PSG. In many seasons, other clubs don't have good performance enough to compete with PSG and can take advantage of PSG distraction for Ligue 1.

Quote
PSG in this French League is unbeaten. But n UCL, they have many big challenges and competitors. In their first match in round 16, they will also fight against Bayern Munich which they are also a strong club. This may not be easy for them. If we see at the composition of the squad, PSG of course has more superstars and a bigger chance of winning. But so far, Bayern Munch could really hold and control big clubs. they are consistent enough for performing very excellently.
They are a strong team with many star and super star players that are all good foundations for them. In Ligue 1, with their domination and many titles recent years, they have abundant belief in themselves there. However, when they play in Champions League, such strong belief is no longer exist or very easily to be broken. The first is the hardest time and PSG need to win a first Champions League to have a feeling then belief that they are a giant in Champions League.
