721  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Wells Fargo: US Bank changes its mind about Bitcoin on: May 24, 2021, 05:28:55 PM
I find this new action of Wells Fargo bank suspicious. Is this just a whale manipulation? Just after a massive dip, a famous US bank decides to changes their opinion about Bitcoin and only makes provision for the rich to buy. JP Morgan and others have been proved to be hypocrites after calling bitcoin a fraud, they later go ahead to embrace crypto.
There is nothing to be suspicious here, during a rally and when majority of the banking sectors are getting business it is natural for a banking marketing team to promote the cryptocurrency market so that they are hoping that they will get more customers which means more profit and that is my take on this and i am not thinking about manipulation.

Normally the cricket boards devote around 20% to 30% of the total pool for domestic cricket. But in case of Bangladesh, the biggest problem is that they don't have established domestic teams. For so many years, the cricketing structure was based on Dhaka based clubs. BCB has recently attempted to expand cricket to regions outside Dhaka, but the results are not very encouraging. Most of the cricketing facilities are concentrated in Dhaka and it is still difficult for players from other regions to catch the attention of selectors.
So there is no domestic tournaments for Bangaldesh and yet they are able to pick talents through club cricket and it was the same that was said about Sri Lanka by one user and that means only India and Pakistan is having domestic tournaments and India is producing more talents because of the IPL and Pakistan is having PSL and they will help them is producing young talents like India in the coming years.

If crypto is going to continue to climb the mainstream latter in terms of quality investment tool, stability and actual utilization for the purpose many of these tokens/coins were originally created then we are going to need to purge some of the craziness. I am hoping this bear run will be the beginning of that process.
We should not expect the cryptocurrency market to be stable as it is a global market and no one controls these investment and majority of the coins in the market are meme or copied from the source of other coins and yet many were able to reach billions of dollars worth of valuation and when we are in a market like that and it is hard to predict whether these shitcoins will recover or die off after the main correction.

There is many More better blockchains with much better use  Cases and utility.
ETH is one of biggest.
So you are claiming that ETH is the best blockchain with use case and utility while Bitcoin does not have a use case and utility, start using Bitcoin and then write the review.

Btc is still alive only reason for that is some very powerful and influenceal people want btc to be alive there is no use Case no utility other then speculation even to Move dark money btc is not good even to make Transactions between companies not good.
What do you mean by dark money, illegal transaction and you think that the rest of the cryptocurrencies will block if anyone is making illegal transactions  Roll Eyes.

So I guess btc is alive only that some big important rich person Can speculate and dump btc on poor suckers.
So to Say to take money from people and scam them.
If you have that kind of convictions who is forcing you to be in the market  Roll Eyes.
725  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Millions of Dollars in Bitcoin 'Incorrectly Credited on: May 23, 2021, 09:46:31 PM
In a promo gone wrong, BlockFi has mistakenly deposited large amounts of Bitcoin to user accounts.
The company is now trying to reverse the transactions, reportedly threatening legal action against users who withdrew excessive amounts."
I do not think the company will win in a situation like these, they can stop the transactions that were not withdrawn, other than that there is no way they are going to get that kind of amount back if the customers already withdrew the coins and threatening with legal actions will not mean anything and it is their million dollar blunder.
726  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Shiba Inu is listed on Binance? Which coin will be the next Shiba? on: May 23, 2021, 08:44:35 PM
But the sure thing that will happen is that bitcoin is going to recover no matter what will be the altcoins that are being hyped there. They're living in pure hype and that's scary because you'll never know if your money is worth it upon investing it to those meme coins. That is the reason why it's better to invest to bitcoin or any altcoins that you've known for quite a while.
The entire cryptocurrency market is all about hype and expectation and the prime example is the recent rally in ETH even before the fundamental issues are sorted and we are yet to see the complete upgrade and well before that investors started to accumulate the coins in huge numbers and then the DeFi hype created the real scary hype and then comes the meme coins and looking at their success there are several other coins popping up as well.

I am avoiding all of these meme coins except Doge because i am using it for a long time in gambling sites but the rest does not even have a use case other speculation and pump and dump  Cheesy.
727  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bullrun Done? on: May 23, 2021, 07:41:09 PM
Hey everyone! just trying to gather some sentiment what do people think are we at the end of the bullrun here or is it possible for a double top (similar to 2013)?
If i am able to read the minds of institutional fund managers i would be having an idea about how the market is going to perform. When the price reached its old all time high valuation these fund houses started investing heavily and whenever there was a minor correction they purchased every coin that was available thereby driving the price higher and it all depends upon whether they will be investing again or will they be booking their profit.
Once we have that clarity we will understand about the direction and then we can take our positions on how the  market would perform in the next two months.
728  Economy / Speculation / Re: 90 Whales with 10,000 btc - Bullish on: May 23, 2021, 06:57:10 PM
it is not 90 whales
its a few dozen exchanges with multiple pockets of 10k coins
It is good to create the narrative, may be most of the said exchanges are exchange hot and cold wallets but when the narrative is set they do not give you the clear picture until you dig deep and start checking those wallets individually.
I will be surprised if 20 individual are still holding over 10000BTC. I also had a lot of coins in the past but i have booked my profit throughout the years and now my holdings are very thin as compared to the past.
729  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: May 23, 2021, 05:12:23 PM
It's great to see match is resumed, as who tested positive tuned into negative. Both BAN and Sri Lanka fans wanted something normal to proceed with the series. Hopefully we can see tough and interesting game between this two Asian sides and the ODI series get successfully finished.

Congrats Bangladesh, a very deserve victory at their 1st ODI. Mushfiqur Rahim the named as player of the Match.
I missed the match but as expected Bangladesh won the match without much issue and even though Bangladesh was not able to score huge runs on the board they were able to defend the score easily and the return of Shakib Al Hasan and Mustafizur Rahman boosted their strength in the bowling department as well.

Majority of the players playing for Sri Lanka are new to me and hopefully Bangladesh will dominate the series and win them easily.

So far didn't hear any such news. IPL clashing with any international bilateral series would be bad indeed but I'm sure if players are free then they would join their respective franchise, if not then its perfectly fine as well, as national teams are more important than some T-20 tourney from the other country.
If the players have the same mentality and if they are wiling to let go off the huge amount of money they are making with franchise cricket then they will stick with the national team and even Shakib Al Hasan had an issue with the Bangladesh board because he choose to play the IPL than touring with the team and we might hear the same issues with other players as well unless their board take a stern decision which is highly unlikely.

Whatever be the situation with other cricket boards the West Indies players will be participating in any franchise cricket even if it is conduct during their peak national playing season  Grin.
731  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Holding 5 years a just a imagination on: May 22, 2021, 10:52:01 PM
Now i think bear market is going on , so holding for 4,5 years just a imagination. specially i have to say that TOP 5 coins , we must keep  most probebly they will surpass the All time high again.
what all your perspectives?
The market is correcting after a long rally but i cannot view this as a bear market as i am still expecting that the market went down due to FUD by prominent people and they might have made huge profits. The market recovered after a deep crash but today the market saw huge selling pressure and we will have a clear idea what we should expect from the market in the coming days..

I am only planning to invest once the market is settled and there is no way i am going to take the risk of investing when everyone is booking their profit.
732  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: MMA Info and Predictions - Bellator, KSW, PFL, ONE... on: May 22, 2021, 06:50:48 PM
And still... Cris Cyborg dominated in Bellator 259 main event fight against Leslie Smith and won by TKO in the last round, and she did similar thing like they meet each other in UFC back in 2016.
She is probably one of the best women featherweight fighters in the world and even some man would lose in fight against her.
Cris Cyborg is a legend and i would love to see the rematch between Amanda Nunes and Cris Cyborg but Dana White did not want to give her the rematch and so is the reason Cris Cyborg asked for her release from the UFC, She would defeat any other MMA women fighters except Amanda Nunes and they are dominating the Women's division.

Next Bellator event is scheduled for June 11 with welterweight fight Douglas Lima vs Yaroslav Amosov as main event.
Amosov have perfect record with 25 wins and he is only 27 years old.
I am rooting for Douglas Lima to win the fight, i am yet to see Yaroslav Amosov fights and i am hoping this to be a good contest.
733  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING POLL ADDED] FURY vs JOSHUA: A Two Fight Deal Has Already Been Signed !! on: May 22, 2021, 05:43:16 PM
Bob Arum just stated it looks like Fury vs Wilder III is happening on 24th July 2021 BUT he also said that Usyk will beat Joshua therefore Fury and Joshua will not meet.
Really disappointed to hear that the biggest fight will not take place now, Wilder needs to learn his lesson the third time to understand he is not the best boxer and i am not expecting any upsets even if they fight the third time but we might not see the same hype if Joshua looses again.

Imagine what would happen if Wilder beats Fury and at the same time Usyk beats Joshua  Grin

I think Usyk has the tools to beat Joshua even though Joshua will be favourite and I think Fury will destroy Wilder again. Those are my views.
Fury will defeat Wilder but i am not sure with Joshua if he faces Usyk and if he looses then boxing fans will loose another hyped up match.

As long as I know there is a base amount depending on your VIP level and your wagering amount within the last 30 days will be an additional amount for the base amount. I'm platinum 1 at Stake and I did not play for more than 2 months if I remember it correctly but I still get the monthly bonus. Not big amount ofc but still nice amount as I did not wager for months.
The amount you get from monthly bonus depends upon the monthly wager and even if you are not active for months they will give you base amount, i am not Platinum level but i am happy with the bonus they are giving according to how much i gamble when giving out the bonus.

Just got an email from Stake with the announcement of 2 new brand ambassadors; Alexa Grasso and Marlon Vera, both UFC stars have joined Stake.
These names don't really ring a bell with me but I also only follow UFC from time to time.
So Stake is signing UFC stars and this is the third UFC fighter. I have seen multiple starts in social media promoting gambling sites, it would be fun if Stake could bring Jon Jones and with Israel Adesanya the first brand ambassador and their social media rivalry it would be fun  Cheesy
735  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The UFC Info and Prediction Thread on: May 21, 2021, 07:37:30 PM
Jacare Souza is finally released from his UFC contract after he broke his arm in last fight against other Brazilian Andre Muniz at UFC 262.
I need to applaud Khabib for having the courage and strength to quit while he was on top, because it's very sad to watch Jacare and Ferguson ending up beaten like this.
It is sad to see Jacare Souza finishing his UFC career like this, there is a huge difference between the age of Khabib who is just 32 years old and he can easily compete for the next three years at the top of his game, Jacare Souza is over 40 and Ferguson is 37 years old and it is true we have not seen anyone stopping their career when they are on top apart from GSP even though he made his decision after a tough fight while Khabib was dominating world class fighters.

One more important news is that Diego Sanchez finally kicked out his guru Joshua Fabia  Cheesy
Glad Diego Sanchez did something that made sense, everyone was advising him in social media for months about it and finally he took the decision Cheesy.
736  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Will ETH Hit $6K this week? on: May 21, 2021, 06:11:43 PM
The market, in general, had already recovered, that's why we have witnessed ATH after ATH, but, this market does not go uptrend forever, correction does happen every time there's a bull run so we must be careful in making our decision, just don't follow the hype, always be cautious as whales can easily manipulate the market.
The market was able to recover from the major slump and there was a huge buy order in the market and the market was able to cross $42k at one stage but once again we are seeing a huge selling pressure which means some of the institutional investors are booking their profit whenever the market reaches a certain valuation, so this week is really interesting and want to see how long this correction will continue as the market already corrected over 6% today.
737  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: China bans Bitcoin again in 2021 on: May 21, 2021, 05:14:34 PM
Believing in bitcoin will be necessary if people want to invest in bitcoin and not panic if the price is down like today because bitcoin is not weak as they thought and when the right time comes, bitcoin price will increase and will break the high price.
Anyone investing in Bitcoin should believe in the market and even if the price goes down there is no point in panicking because you should be confident that the market would reach those valuation at a later period of time and if you have the bank balance you should average your investment capital if the market goes down.

Since i have seen the market going down multiple times and in the past i was confident about the price recovering but this time around i am not too confident to invest during a correction until the market settles down as the price is really high. Expect more FUD news to come out in the coming days that might pull the market down.

Would have been great if they were playing 2 test match series too. When playing Red ball cricket Bangladesh is tough nut to crack in their own home condition and give very tough fight to any team. Pak and Ind could be exception, otherwise most of the time every other team struggle against them. Bangladesh still fav to win the ODI series but you can expect tough fight in LOI from the Lankan team.
So it would be better to bet on live matches rather than betting beforehand. Sri Lanka is a weak team and i know they have won World Cup in the past and changed limited overs cricket but now a days they are finding it difficult to identify talented youngsters like they used to have in the past. Bangladesh have improved a lot and they have a few players that would trouble any team if they are playing in spin wickets and i believe Bangladesh would have won if the Test matches were played in spin wickets.
739  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: May 21, 2021, 12:36:50 PM
BTW, Bangladesh will play against Sri Lanka at their homeland on 23rd May. Shakib Al Hasan and Mustafizur Rahman might play in that match. From my view, Bangladesh is favorite on this game and they may get the victory.
Bangladesh fans will be rejoicing as they got their main players back in the team because IPL was put on halt and if Shakib Al Hasan and Mustafizur Rahman was in the team they could have displayed a much more competitive game of cricket than they were able to do and the fans might be furious that they picked IPL over their national team.

I am not familiar with the Sri Lankan ODI team and hence i have no idea how the match will go but i give Bangladesh the advantage because the best players are back in the team.

Corona continues to wreak havoc across the world through different variants. Israel and Palestine are hell-bent on destroying each other. Felt like I was watching fireworks when I saw the missiles launched at each other.
My country is lenient with the situation in recent weeks and hopefully everything will be fine, i know there are restrictions in many places but everything started to open up now which is worrying and the curfew in places are getting relaxed according to the color coded system they implemented they are relaxing things and hopefully we will not see another wave.
It is sad to see that people are fighting against themselves when everyone around is fighting against a virus.

Honestly, I am not hyped about any sport currently since it feels like World War 3 is underway which is why I am looking forward to sports events next year.
I would like to see some sort of sporting events so that i could forget all these situations and relax myself.
