Let they do their works and make noise for cryptocurrency industry. If after making noise, after all they accept cryptocurrency at more massively scale, they are doing something free and good for crypto.

It is better than any advertisement, because noise from SEC and CTFC should be very big than any advertisement campaign or any propaganda.

If they want to restrict crypto entirely, they should and can do this years ago. They don't have to let this industry growing to today scale.

I really believe Milan can complete its journey in the Champions League to qualify for the next round. Chelsea, Salzburg and Dinamo Zegreb are expected to drop points in the remaining match but Milan must win the match. Until matchday 3, Milan and 3 other teams still have the chance to qualify for the next round.
The sudden defeat by Chelsea is bad for AC Milan but they still control their chance to be qualified for the next round. Fhis defeat affects their players but I hope they will come back soon. In Serie A, they should not lose more points as many teams are competing for top of the league and Milan have to protect their championship.

Chelsea lit the light in Champions League after this surprising win but they have tons of thing to do. AC Milan and Chelsea are still the most experienced clubs in this group and honestly I would prefer to see both of them go to a next round.

PSG should be able to beat Benfica, if we look at the match statistics PSG dominates and creates more chances. Unfortunately the match ended
Messi is returning back to his best but again PSG shown their weakness in defense. Benfica is not a strong opponent but again, PSG defender made another mistake. How many seasons they got big advantage against big clubs in important matches in Champions League. But at the ends, they lost all advantage and lost those matches. They even were beaten in aggregated results too.

They must fix their defense if they want to win Champions League in this season.

On the Manchester City game, I predicted for Copenhagen to have watched out for a 5 goals possibility and they let that happened. I was hoping Erling Haaland would get his 3rd goal but Pep didn't allow that by taking him off the pitch as a half time substitute. The game was already won though so, it was the best thing and an opportunity to test some of his young bloods in an important league. Manchester City is just on another level.
Haaland is unstoppable now and it is good to see Pep Guardiola gave Haaland opportunity to have rest. They don't need Haaland to score 50 or 100 goals in this season. What they need is his goals in important matches and to have that, they must have Haaland with his best fitness.

Pep known that without Haaland, Manchester City can still easily beat Copenhagen.

Looking at Liverpool's inconsistency and poor form this season, I think Arsenal are the favorites to win this game. The Gunners will be going into that game with so much confidence from their home win over Spurs and hopefully we will see this confidence in the way they will play against Liverpool. In my opinion Arsenal have the upper hand in the game and I expect a win in favour of Arsenal.
Liverpool are coming back and Arsenal are not stronger than Liverpool. They are both big clubs and about player quality, Arsenal are a bit lower than Liverpool. Arsenal only have better form than Liverpool and it means the chance to win is 50 - 50 or a bit higher for Arsenal.

It is wrong to assume Arsenal will automatically win this match because Liverpool surely can create lot of trouble for Arsenal and even can beat Arsenal.

Manchester City still has many other defenders who are ready to face existing enemies, actually Manchester City is very scary not from the line of defense, but from the line of their attacking player named Erling Haaland with his expertise that always gets a goal in every game makes him have to be wary of and as much as possible not to easily get the ball so as not to score goals.
With Pep Guardiola, Manchester City have very high ball possession that reduce risk of counter attack from opponents. They don't have strongest defense system in Premier League but in most of matches, they don't give opponents so many chance to hurt them.

With Haaland, they become more dangerous in attacking because Haaland only need a half of opportunity to find goal.

The Securities and Exchange Commission is moving to take action against Ethereum that reaches far beyond America’s borders.
Second, the SEC’s allegation that transactions occurring on the Ethereum blockchain are subject to U.S. jurisdiction because more of Ethereum’s nodes are located in the U.S. than any other country would expand the SEC’s reach far beyond the United States. Based on that reasoning, the SEC could assert jurisdiction over an Ethereum-based token developed in Germany, offered and sold in Germany exclusively to Germans, because the cluster of Ethereum nodes in the U.S. means that the transactions effectively occurred in the United States. Such an outcome would seem highly unlikely to pass legal muster.
https://cointelegraph.com/news/federal-regulators-are-preparing-to-pass-judgment-on-ethereum
They are aiming at top and old cryptocurrencies. After Ripple XRP, their eyes are on Ethereum but I have more belief in Ethereum than Ripple.

If Ethereum can survive after that, it will blossom in next bull run that I believe it will. SEC's alleagation is sucked and it is hilarious to see they are very low with response to what they think is not right and disobey their regulations. If it is wrong, they should do such allegation years ago.

So waiting for about 10 years to release allegation against Ethereum, they are mad totally. Just like how they want to attack Binance BNB.

Haaland and Messi these players has came from different era and i have to say Messi era is near to ended and for Haaland as he still young and still can develop with Manchester City so it's almost impossible to see the duet between Haaland and Messi moreover PSG has a plan to extended his contract for one more year and this is good for Messi because not much teams offered the contract with high salary to the 35 years old player and indeed there was a statement from Guardiola that he had a dream want to see Haaland and Messi playing together but i am sure it's not more than just an opinion and it will never be happend
We can not compare Haaland and Messi because two reasons

The first reason is like you said, they come from different eras. Messi is from the era with Cristiano Ronaldo. Haaland is from the era with Mbappe and in this generation, they are greatest players.

If you want to make comparison, Haaland should be compared to Mbappe and I believe they will create another unbelievable race like the one between Messi and Ronaldo.

The second reason is Messi has different style than Haaland. They playing style of Haaland is like the one of Ronaldo. So if you want to compare playing style, it should be between Haaland and Ronaldo.

and if Barcelona fail to qualify from the Champions League group stage, of course their attention will be more focused on the domestic league competition. and the chances of winning the league title will be even greater, because after failing in the champions league.
their mission turned to domestic league competitions.
Barcelona is taking the first position in La Liga but they are at risk of delegation to Europa League. However it is too soon to say Barcelona will not be able to go next in Champions League. Things can be changed in next 3 matches in Champions League even now they have more difficulty.

I agree with you that if Barcelona is out of Champions League, they will have to focus on La Liga. That might increase their chance to win it but it is not guarantee. Real Madrid can beat Barcelona in La Liga too.

The draw against Osasuna is not the end of Real Madrid, it's just a normal result because Barcelona can experience that too in the future. It was just an unlucky result for Real Madrid, even my multi bet lost just because Real Madrid didn't win the match, but I still think Real Madrid just had bad luck and didn't miss the chance to win the title. It's funny if you think that this result makes Real Madrid lose the chance to win the title, because after all it is a normal result and the fact is that Real Madrid still has a very good chance of winning the title again because after all, Barcelona is still not stable, right.
Although, it is not the end and they have so many matches in future, they must learn from this draw and move next with more alternative plans to get winning matches when Benzema can not save them. He is a great striker and the last season proves it but his performance is gradually affected by his age.

They have good midfielders to replace Casemiro, Modric and Kroos in future but they are still lack of a good replacement for Benzema.
2088  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: October 05, 2022, 11:49:22 AM
I hope so. Liverpool was not in the best performance.
They are improving and I hope that they will continue it to make Premier League more exciting. The league needs to have strong competitors with Manchester City.

Quote
That means arsenal has more chance to win against liverpool rather than loosing with it. Liverpool has been winning again rangers with 2-0. This may make make liverpool to make a comeback against arsenal. Arsenal must play with all of its performance to be able to beat liverpool. In my opinion learned from last match of arsenal and i do believe arsenal has consider how performance from the liverpool. Liverpool was at the ninth position compared with arsenal that is still consistent and it's still at the top position till now.
The win against Rangers shows that Trent is good with attacking and we all know that he is not good with defense. He is like an Achilles of Liverpool because if the whole system of Liverpool can not operate well, they will not be able to cover weakness of Trent.

Arsenal can exploit this weakness and beat Liverpool.

Quote
I trust arsenal for this match rather than liverpool. The different thing when mane was still playing for liverpool.
Don't trust Arsenal too much as they usually make us disappointed a lot when they gave their fans lot of hope. In the past 2 seasons, they have improvement but it is not enough, they still are not stable in performance.
2089  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: October 05, 2022, 05:29:06 AM
Yes, Napoli will be the best Candidate for serie A because their players are well organized in this season to work together to ensure they keep the victory going until they stand for final to prove to the whole world that they are the best for the tournament
They are the best now but in future, at the end of season, I don't know. They might make us disappointed again as they did in some past seasons. This season, they are not competing with dominating club like Juventus years ago. But they are in a similar season like the past one, they even have more competitors in this season, not only Inter Milan and AC Milan.

Quote
If Napoli strikers can maintain this strategies they are using in this season, I think they will defeat any strong teams in this Italian league competition to embrace the title
Their attacking players are doing good but to win Serie A and take Scudetto, they need strong defense too. It is surprise to see Napoli destroyed Ajax in Champions League too. It means their whole system especially attacking system is very good at the moment.

So, two gaming platform we have here work togheter until now?.

Really good news for both. And the two are running signatures campaings here.
Moonbet has a long time on the forum and now they become a partner of Owl DAO Web3 casino. I am not sure how they dealed with each other and went to this partnership.

On tip of iceberg, the partnership will help both casinos to expose to more gamblers. It is cross-platform exposure and because it is from a partnership, it is a free advertisement.

With partnership, we might see more events, more advertisements from two casinos in future.
2091  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: October 04, 2022, 12:29:40 PM
This Italian League season, Udinese has been the most outstanding team I have ever seen. I have a hunch that this Serie A season may bring perhaps the biggest shock. They will likely surpass Atalanta and Napoli in the league standings sooner rather than later if they keep up this pace of scoring a decent amount of goals and producing quality passes to control the game as they see fit.
Udinese has been playing just similar to Atalanta seasons ago when they suddenly rose in Serie A. More impressive, Atalanta manage to continue it about 4 seasons later. So far in this season, Udinese are good but they are far away from what Atalanta have achieved recent years.

I don't think there will be big shocks in Serie A this season because Udinese are lack of many things to have stable performance in a long season. What surprise we can see is top four, not Scudetto. This season, two Milan clubs will be challenged by more clubs from Napoli, Atalanta to AS Roma and Lazio. I don't consider it is a shock if any team among Napoli, Atalanta or AS Roma win Scudetto in this season.

We all know that El Salvador is already using Bitcoin as legal tender officially and there is already a lot of good feedback from it
The legal tender in El Salvador makes lot of hype and their government did good plan from law, legal tender announcement to build up Chivo wallet and airdrop distributions to citizens. The airdrop distribution is helpful to expose their citizens with Bitcoin but if to say all feedback are good, I don't agree.

Months after airdrop distribution plus the bear market, many people no longer want or more hesitate to accept Bitcoin for their business in El Salvador. They have solid reason, if you have a business and also are a long term investor, you can accept Bitcoin without fear that it will have -15% drop tomorrow. If you have a start up that is small and vulnerable enough, accepting Bitcoin is risky for your company.

It is interesting to see how the ligue 1 table looks like as at today. It is different from what it used to be in the past, seeing Marseille giving Psg a very close mark is good. Another surprising gesture is seeing Lens at top4 with over 20 points after playing 9 matches. It is an interesting one and if they could show more strength before this year ends and remain in top 4, they could end in top 4 by the end of the season.
PSG are the strongest with most earned points and biggest goal difference. It means their attacking is a damn dominating strong but the point difference shows that they are still followed very tightly by other clubs from Marseille to Lens. Only a several points differently and it can be covered affer one or two match days.

Above all it is reading stats but I don't think other clubs will be able to catch PSG and beat them at the end. In a long run, PSG have more advantage than others as they have many good players on bench. Their substitute players can get in main squad in other clubs very easily. It reveals a lot about strenght, depth of player resources and differences between PSG and their competitors.
2094  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: October 04, 2022, 09:36:41 AM
Most chances no one going to blame Karim Benzema for this as they are well aware about his situation just come from injury and having not good practice is surely going to be happened, but they are still at their good streak even now position is change with drop to second just because of goals difference, but we have very long way to go into this season which is surely going to be good for having better performance in coming weeks.
Missing a penalty is common even it is super star player. Benzema missed a pen but in a normal match, not a big one. Real Madrid and Benzema have many months and matches in future to fix their mistake last week.

The temporary loss of first position to Barcelona is also good to warn Real Madrid that their main competitor Barcelona is very strong in this season. They must play more carefully and always keep their eyes on Barcelona.

Losing and winning is a common thing in football. after all, Real Madrid didn't play badly in that game. although they failed to get full points this week. they should have deserved to win, but luck was not on Benzema's side, who failed to score a penalty.
They made some mistakes and could not find a winning goal but it is not the end. They have about 30 more matches in La Liga so if they are strong and can find more wins, two losing points last weekend are nothing with them.

Quote
but on the other hand, Vinicius Junior's movement is very difficult to stop, he deserves to be the Man of the Match in the match against Osasuna.
Vinicius is one of core players for Real Madrid in next five to ten years. They bought him when he was very young and they spent a few seasons to grow him up. In the last season, Vinicius suddenly shown that he was ready to take more responsibility.

Quote
As for the draw, it is possible that Real Madrid will still be the favorite to win this tournament, La Liga's schedule still has a long game. both Barcelona and Real Madrid have a great chance of being champions this season, they have the same points.
Likely Real Madrid are still best candidate for La Liga title but they have more pressure from Barcelona in this season. Still have chance that Barcelona will beat Real Madrid at ending of La Liga.

Finally Juventus can return to feel the victory they have not obtained for a long time. Before beating Bologna, the last time Juventus got a win was when they beat Spezia 2-0 at the end of last August.
The international break is helpful for Juventus to refresh themselves and they actually got a win after that. One win is not enough to improve their ranking but it is a good start for something better. Furthermore, differences among Juventus and other clubs are not too much and if they can continue to win next 2 or 3 matches, their rankings will be improved a lot.

Quote
The win against Bologna also eased the pressure on Allegri due to a series of disappointing results obtained by Juventus recently, Juventus failed to get a win in five matches in all competitions. Allegri can breathe a sigh of relief with the positive results that have just been obtained by Juventus, he must be able to bring Juventus to continue the positive momentum to reduce the pressure on him.
Pressure on Max is reduced a little bit and he can force his team to move forwards more positively. With a better sentiment, I expect to see Juventus will play better in coming matches. They are at beginning to get back on a right track. It's better for Serie A too because having Juventus in Champions League is better for the league. They are more experienced and can play better in Champions League than Udinese.

Quote
Juventus must be able to rise to improve its ranking in the standings, the addition of three points makes Juventus in seventh place with 13 points, now Juventus is seven points behind Napoli in first place and four points from Milan who is in fourth place.
Differences are not big but the race for top four is very competitive this season. At least so far it is what we are experiencing one of most exciting race in last few seasons. Lot of clubs are competing together with very minor differences at the moment. If Juventus waste too much time, and too many points, they will struggle with more challenge to get in top four at season ending.

Manchester United had to change their game strategy in the next match, Manchester United players were too open because they were obsessed with immediately scoring goals from the counter-attacks they built. Facing a team like Manchester City, they have to play carefully and close every empty room, Manchester United players don't do it so they have to accept the fact that they conceded 6 goals.
Before the big defeat in derby match, Manchester United were considered as doing well enough. They improved at least in results after first few terrible matches but the international break and the derby bring them back to reality. They are no where closely to level of top clubs in Premier League at the moment.

In addition, Manchester City are simply too strong than most of clubs in Premier League, not only Manchester United. Fortunately, depends on how you see this, this defeat reveals weakness of United defense and from that Ten Hag can make plans to improve it. I am sure that United won't be able to compete fairly with City in this season but they can improve and compete with other clubs. At least competing for a position in top four and a chance to play in Champions League next season.

That target is important for them to attract star players in next summer that will be helpful for their long term development plans.

Stable price does not helpful for both investors and traders.

Investors need to see price growths to get profit so stable price can not help for investors.
Traders need high volatility in order to have waves and good entries as well as good exits to get profit. Traders would prefer to see highly volatile price, not stable price.

Because Bitcoin has four-year halving, it won't be stable for too long time. There are always highly volatile, medium volatile and very minor volatile periods in price but in general, we will see volatility.

1. Sign a message from your non custodial wallet.
2. Hide your email address from public.
Two mandatory steps to do for account safety.

Quote
3. Make sure your account in this forum and email have different password.
Different passwords for all different accounts. Don't resue any password on many platforms.

4. Create strong password with various combination and use 2FA (if possible).
It should be set up for email that you use to register your account.

Because forum account can be hacked by a password reset via email. If you email is hacked, your forum account will be hacked by password reset via email.

If you are not sure that you can protect your email safely, you can use a non existing email address. So your forum account can not be hacked via email. If you do this, you have to do the first step, signing a message that is helpful for account recovery later.

5. Regularly change your password every month.
Good advice but not enough. When you change your password, make sure they (old and new passwords) don't have anything related to each other, don't have any template format like "MyforumpasswordSeptember2022" and "MyforumpasswordOctober2022".

I understand why Erik ten Hag didn't prefer Ronaldo in the starting eleven. It was because of Rashford's recent form as he made a great impression in the Arsenal game as well. But I really don't get why he insists on not choosing Casemiro for the midfield at the beginning. He entered the game in the 60th minute this time.
He does not prioritize Ronaldo in the squad but Ronaldo is responsible for hks decreasing performance too. He would have played better if he had not try to leave in summer. He was not joined pre-season training and worse his mind was not ready for the new season. When he realized that he has to stay in Manchester United, it is just too late to get back training and get his body ready.

Quote
Manchester United are paying so much money for his salary and he has been brought here to strengthen the midfield. But Erik ten Hag doesn't look like he is willing to give him bigger chances. If he continues to do this then this transfer will be a waste of money.
His too high salary is main barrier why other clubs rejected to take him.  Ronaldo will not sign a new contract with Manchester United as we all see that they are still in bad organization as well as bad results. It is not convincible enough to ask Ronaldo continues with them.

From Manchester United and Ten Hag sides, I also don't see why they have to keep Ronaldo too. They want another start of another project without Ronaldo but with more younger players.

One word for Manchester City's performance today, Amazing. Manchester City is still too tough for Manchester United this season, the final score can describe how incredible the Manchester City players have shown. The action of Haaland and Phil Foden was extraordinary, they both scored a hat-trick in this match. Pep Guardiola's squad barely gave Man United a breath, the attacks continued to be launched by Man City players so that David De Gea had to concede six times.
Manchester City destroyed Manchester United and this match again confirms the perfect decision to buy Haaland. In addition, Foden has a very different change in last two years than Jadon Sancho. A couple of years ago, when Sancho were considered as one of best young stars, Foden did struggled to obtain chance to play in Manchester City.

Then the career of Sancho falls a lot after his transfer to Manchester United and during same period, Foden gradually had been getting more chance to play. In this season, he actually gets a solid position in City squad. He is no longer an alternative player.

Quote
This victory makes Man City keep their distance with Arsenal at the top of the table, while the defeat suffered by Man United made Ten Hag's debut in the Manchester Derby a little embarrassing.
I don't believe Arsenal will manage to beat Manchester City and take the trophy. It is unrealistic hope and target for them at least in this season.
