there are many people that did not buy bitcoin because it is expensive and at the end of the day they will end up with a very big regret, even in year 2010 people did not buy bitcoin that time because they think bitcoin will become failed and even 0.5$ price is look so expensive for bitcoin  that time.

if you were, did you buy bitcoin in 2010? i see your account was created in 2011, it means you know bitcoin very early, so did you buy bitcoin at that time?

i dare to bet you that you did not dare to buy bitcoin at that time, no one could have predicted that bitcoin could achieve the crazy growth rate it is today, no one thought that bitcoin could come from a bogus, valueless virtual currency that could increase in price by tens of thousands of dollars

nothing to blame here, we would never risk buying something we know nothing about, that's a very normal thing, but we'll regret seeing it grow,
but it's never too late to invest in bitcoin, we can start investing now because bitcoin is very potential, it can grow many times in the future

We can speculate as hard as we can but it is really hard to know the future of the coins.  I bet no one here really knows what is the next x100, x1000 or x10000 coins.  All we can do is do some research, speculate and throw some dollars on the projects and hope that they will do x10000 in the future.


the truth is that no one can be sure which project could be x100 or x1000, if someone can make such a claim it is no different than trying to scam by the project they are behind

nowadays to be able to get x100 or x1000 profit we only have to invest in new projects, projects that have not been developed too much, are not known by many people, but also have unpredictable risks

new projects have no guarantee they will survive or disappear, the only way is to research and be ready to take risks if you want such huge profits
1763  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum Merge will change Ethereum blockchain consensus on: September 12, 2022, 09:13:45 AM
The Ethereum blockchain network will transition from a proof-of-work (PoW) to proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus algorithm
what do you think, With the upgrade, will Bitcoin be threatened with shifting to Ethereum.
With this upgrade, the potential dominance of Bitcoin will be threatened to shift to Ethereum. After The Merge, which uses PoS, it is predicted to be faster and able to process up to 100,000 transactions per second.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin still operates on a PoW mechanism, with high energy usage, slow speed in transactions, and also low scalability.
If the upgrade to Ethereum 2.0 is successful, this could lead to the PoS platform gaining popularity compared to other PoW-enabled cryptos like Bitcoin.

there will be no influence or threat to bitcoin, i can assure you of this
after merge will not make ethereum faster and more scalable you should update your knowledge, the merger only helps ethereum move to pos, helping eth reduce energy use by 99%, eth needs the next update to be faster and scalable, but it will take a long time

using pow causes bitcoin to face some obstacles like you mentioned with coins that use pos but in return pow makes bitcoin more decentralized and secure which is what people are looking for, no must be something centralized like fiat.

This talk is going to be long because right now if ICC is going to do any decision like if they have no enough funds then they are not going to help them surely this could be disaster because they will lose good amount, and they could be not able to run their system which is very important for this game they need to work on like FIFA where they are providing funds to all countries and helping them for having better structure and quality which is very important for them even FIFA is very big, and their income is also much ahead from ICC but here they also can increase their income, but they need to do work on this with positive mind set.
Just helping B-4 is never been going to increase this game's popularity and income most of the time if they are just thinking about India and IPL then surely it's going good way for having better sources of income go ahead and do better marketing and spread this game with just T-20 format which is the best way of income for them right now.
A lot of focus has been on the BCCI and their demands for more funds. The Indian board has softened their stance, after the Srinivasan-Pawar mafia was kicked out. Now they are in favor of Olympics inclusion and more sympathetic towards the associate nations. But at the same time, no one really talks about the discrepancy within some of the lower ranking test nations. There is no justification for Zimbabwe receiving $12 million per year from the ICC, while teams such as Nepal receive only around 2% of that amount.
Test status should not be permanent. There should be a promotion-relegation system, where lower ranking teams such as Zimbabwe should play against top ranking associate nations such as Scotland to retain their test status.

i don't know why but in my opinion ICC feels like they have become so lazy right now, this should be the perfect opportunity for the ICC to show that they actually care about the game, i think this is a time when cricket is at its lowest point, and ICC can really show right now that they are actually working for the future of cricket by doing some simple stuff like increasing the funding of associate nations and just even trying to include cricket in the Olympics, i don't think any cricket board is planning to oppose these ideas now, but ICC is still not doing anything

what i understand is that Potter previously managed an underperforming team, and if he did not do well with that team
he wouldn’t have anything to worry about because everybody knows that he does not have enough resources anyway
You are wrong, Graham Potter was very successful in bringing Brighton to end the season at number 9 last season. A total of 12 wins, 15 draws and 11 defeats are statistics which are still much better than Everton and Aston Villa. But Graham Potter has no experience at a big team like Chelsea, but the real challenge is just beginning.

Basically the Chelsea squad is better than Brighton, so Graham Potter has the opportunity to bring his team to play well from the next match. Unfortunately we have to be a little patient to watch the match because this week there will be no match after all the matches have been postponed. So Graham Potter was in training camp to get to know his players better.

i also understand the logic behind this
however, in all honesty, i cannot agree with the notion that Graham Potter is going to be able to bring better results than what Zidane or Pochettino would have been able to achieve under their management, there is no doubt that he is a good coach, and he has done well with whatever resources he has been given, but i am unable to believe that he is a better option than any of the other two, there would have been no doubt that Zidane would have been the best choice among these three coaches
in spite of that, since Chelsea has already made the decision, i would like them to succeed

yesterday bitcoin is up more than 10% and it's back above $21k, you see nothing to worry about bitcoin falling, it falls and then rises is normal
if you don't get scared, keep catching the bottom and buy bitcoin at $19k a few days ago you are in profit
once you have invested, you should be confident with your choice and always keep a cool head, only then can you overcome the fear and temptation in front of you
bitcoin is a long term investment so don't look at its chart too much in the short term, it won't make the bitcoin price go up, it will only make your fear bigger
1767  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: NFT Play To Earn can make 50x - 100x? on: September 11, 2022, 03:47:19 AM
I don't think anyone should consider the Play to Earn NFT as an investment, it's too much of a risk compared to the actual chance you actually get some profit. Like playing lottery, it's collectible so you should treat it like a collectible, buy it if you like it, and if this think actually get you some profit then it's a bonus. Don't treat it like a stock or other crypto investment, when you put your money to hope gain some profit.

in a sense, it's like speculating on meme projects, they have almost no utility so you just purchase them and hold them with the hope that one day they get hyped and you can make money from them

investing in nft is not bad but it should be considered a risky investment, should play with money that can lose and don't put too much hope in it
if you are looking for a long term investment then you should look to bluechip coins, nft is not suitable for long-term investment
1768  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: where to invest with 30 000 usd on: September 11, 2022, 03:37:19 AM
If the prime focus is to invest on altcoins, then divide the entire $30k into 6 parts and go for the top altcoins. Here you can prioritise coins with the lowest price. If you have got the mind to take risk, then you can use the 6th part of the investment on new projects. If you're good enough to analyse and find the right project you'll make the best out of it at the shortest.

it's too risky to throw all 30k dollars into new altcoins, put 15k in bitcoin and 5k in ethereum, and the remaining 10k you can comfortably invest in new altcoins
if unfortunately your investments in altcoins do not yield the expected returns, then at least you still have a chance to rebuild your investment with bitcoin and ethereum
good analysis and good experience also do not guarantee 100% that you will not choose the wrong project, so do not risk such a large amount, we are investing, not playing the lottery
1769  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Who makes such predictions? on: September 11, 2022, 03:27:03 AM
I recently saw speculations about Luna Classic too. There are people claiming it could possibly reach $1. I don't see it happening, but I understand that the cause of such predictions varies (efforts to hype a coin, purely fictional, or an attempt to motivate holders).

Since it got hyped, LUNC is being speculated to reach $1. Their hypesters and diehard believers will always say positive predictions about that coin because they owned lots. Even without properly backed support for why it will reach $1, the hype is hype.

The same on other coins, predictions always come up either with proper analysis, just hype, just believing, just hope, etc.

If we will buy it or not, it's up to us.
I little having some regrets because i didnt buy on the dip because i never intent to touch up those projects which had been connected with those scammy devs but just as expected that even shit projects

do really have chance on getting those pump value because of being hyped which is something not really that surprising.This is a speculative market which it wouldnt be surprising that it would really

be having this kind of behavior where price cant really be known in terms of its direction or trend.Its not bad to look on others analysis but its always been suggestable
to stick with your own and never ever rely on others.

i think there is no regret for lunc, if talking about regrets i believe you will have more regrets than that
if lunc hasn't pumped in the last few days then you might think that you are lucky,  you are wise not to invest in that damn coin at this point in time
the market is unpredictable, if you can't take more risks than others, don't expect to have more opportunities than others, simple as that, and our chances are still a lot, no regrets
1770  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: September 10, 2022, 03:55:53 PM
Tbh I have no idea the amount of associate nations are getting from the ICC right now but I agree they can't expect more because the last time I heard back in 2015 or so it was like a million or so, that's a fucking joke and criminal imo.

No wonder cricket is not spreading quickly as it is supposed to be.

There are two different factors.

1. The funding for associate members were reduced from $62.5 million per year in 2007-15 cycle to $20 million per year in 2015-23 cycle ($20 million was a compromise after Srinivasan-Pawar mafia proposed zero funds for the associate nations in 2014).

2. The eligibility rules were changed, allowing countries to form teams with 100% foreigners. This benefitted Oman, UAE.etc, and they now receive a greater share of funds. Adversely affected countries with native players such as Nepal and Argentina. They are unable to win matches and therefore receive a smaller share of the funds.

For countries such as UAE, the decrease is not very significant. They receive almost the same amount of funds that they used to receive before 2015. But for countries fielding native players such as Kenya, Thailand, PNG and Nepal, the funds that they now receive is around 10% of what they used to get before 2015. And it is not surprising that cricket is dying in these countries.

i believe that ICC did such a thing (reducing the amount that the associate teams are getting from the ICC) because they were not generating revenue from these associate countries
i think if it was any other sports body they actually would have tried to find a way to make the teams play better and eventually generate a lot more revenue from them

but the problem is ICC tried to take the easy way out, and they just decided to not invest more money where they are not getting revenue from
obviously, this action had some reaction, the rich countries have benefited greatly from this, and the poor countries are the ones to suffer
this reaction was possible for another reason, which is being able to form the national team with foreigners, that further decreased the quality of poor teams

that has been proven mate, How long have you been existed in this market and this forum? aren't you aware of those things? have you not seen that Only bitcoin can influence the whole market to join this as it grows or even as it drops?
this is how the market goes mate for all the years existed of crypto.

bitcoin is the creator of this cryptocurrency market so it is not surprising that bitcoin is dominating the entire market,
unlike other markets, like stocks, all work independently and trends depend on the development of the company behind that stock
but in cryptocurrency, no matter how good your coin is, you still have to follow the movement of bitcoin, cannot go against the trend of bitcoin
bitcoin is the biggest trust maker for the market, once bitcoin is dumped all coins will follow, once confidence in bitcoin is increased, bitcoin will rise and altcoins will follow
1772  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: When is ever the right time. on: September 10, 2022, 03:33:17 AM
Indeed a bear market is a good opportunity to enter into it. But not everyone can be patient in holding the assets they have to their destination. This is the problem, when the person is impatient and it turns into panic.
Do you mean 'enter' = 'buying'?
Of course, this bearish market is a good time to buy any coins. But make sure to buy safe coins to hold a long time. We don't speculate to buy random coins and only rely on our patience to take good profits in the future. Although we are quite patient to hold a long time, we will get nothing if we buy the wrong coins. Bad coins may disappear or delist from the exchanges. There are many coins that can't survive a long time in the market. So, we must be very careful to choose coins to buy.



in addition to determining a good time to buy, choosing to buy and hold coins is also really important because not all coins increase in price, to be able to make a good profit we need to combine the two

currently we are in the bear season, this can be considered a good time to buy, the rest is to choose coins that have the potential to develop in the future. this is not an easy task, it depends on the knowledge of each investor

the best way is to choose the top coins to hold, but if you want bigger profits then you can use your knowledge, experience to find newer coins, chances of profit will be greater

before that i remember that the Cifi project is also managed by Irfan Pak and they still haven't completed the full bounty payment to the hunters and Irfan Pak can't do anything else either
manager, they're just doing their job and getting paid and how the project develops is none of his business

Yes, I am also following the development of this one project. It will be interesting to see how it develops in the future.
i see you are wearing the signature of the project so it is not surprising that you put your hopes on it
i hope it will have certain success so that everyone can make a profit, but don't invest in them, just use the word reward from bounty

We're seeing the impact, the increase of the interest rates are showing how the US dollars is dominating the markets now. And just like the other markets, the crypto market has stumbled although for this day, we've seen a quick reversal and recovery.
I don't know what's with it right now but one thing for sure is that, we're able to see that crypto market is also being moved by the action that the fed has made.

even gold, which is considered a stable asset, is not immune from the impact of the Fed's rate hike, when the dollar benefits the most from the rate hike
other risky assets like stocks and cryptocurrencies are bound to have negative effects, rising interest rates make the usd stronger, investors will choose usd as a safe haven over other assets
i woke up and was quite surprised to see bitcoin rise above 21k, do you have any information that made bitcoin price go up so fast?

It seems like that some people are still thinking this is a very strong project lol. These scalpers are stuped enough by not realized that if price went from hundred bucks to the even lower than zero value. The fork became useless.
it used to be a project in the top 10 best coins on cmc, but its death ended all,
today those who believe that luna will return are its former investors, they have not yet accepted the fact that they have lost their money, they are holding on to the faint hope that one day luna will truly recover one day, some people didn't invest before and now they think that luna has dropped a lot and the chance for it to rise again so they bought luna hoping to change their life quickly
People are gambling their life with this scam coin. I didn't even know why those people are loosing their mind to think with their sense.

it all comes from greed, the person who loses with luna is also too greedy with the high apy that ust and luna provide, and now they continue to be blinded by greed without knowing the other trap that awaits them ahead

what i don't understand is, how is this an improvement for Chelsea?
for Chelsea, i believe that there were better options that were available to them, what made them decide to choose Graham Potter instead of Zidane or Pochettino?
it is probably something i will never be able to understand, while i am aware of the fact that he has been having some good success with Brighton in recent times, we all have to realize that Brighton and Chelsea are two very different teams, Chelsea really doesn't seem to be going to make any big improvements with this move, in my opinion,
but at the same time, i would be very happy if Graham Potter can prove me wrong
Well some may think that Potter had to work out with more teams before getting into managing big teams , I think that it is his unique way of managing which has earned him manager spot for team such as Chelsea. Yes, obviously they had options of Zidane and Pochettino but I think they wanted to give chances to someone who is managing a team very well with not much resources. I honestly admire the way Potter has managed Brighton and I think he can manage a team very well but managing a big team is a big and a heavy challenge. Chelsea is taking a risk here but if it turns out well then I think he will manage Chelsea very well.

what i understand is that Potter previously managed an underperforming team, and if he did not do well with that team
he wouldn’t have anything to worry about because everybody knows that he does not have enough resources anyway

he will be expected to perform at a higher level when working with Chelsea because he will have a lot more and more efficient resources at his disposal
so if he is not able to bring about positive results with Chelsea he will be held accountable, if he cannot produce better results than Tuchel, then he is not doing any good at all
1777  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: September 09, 2022, 06:01:18 PM
unexpectedly Chelsea will recruit Potter to coach. So far Potter has given Beighton's performance improvement. last season performed quite well by being in 9th position in the standings. With the current Chelsea squad, I think Potter will make a big difference to the team.

To be honest, this decision was completely beyond the predictions of many people. because Chelsea also has to pay fairly expensive compensation to Brighton. surprising.
Chelsea have made official announcement about Graham Potter as replacement for Thomas Tuchel sacked after Chelsea defeating by Dinamo Zagreb on UEFA Champion League. Not really popular with Graham Potter although he was success bring Brighton Albion on 9th standing position place last season.

Depending with Graham Potter success with Brighton Albion last six games in this season with 4 win, 1 draw and 1 loss I think no doubt for him as Chelsea manager, but waiting will can bring magic for Chelsea success back to the top standing after success with Brighton Albion or he will failure like Thomas Tuchel.

what i don't understand is, how is this an improvement for Chelsea?

These restrictions and policies might end up making the competition uninteresting and FITA might end up selling fewer tickets than they budgeted. I cannot watch football in a place that is guided by draconian laws which would make fans feel like they are imprisoned.    

My thoughts as well. As we all know, there was massive controversy, when the world cup hosting rights were granted to Qatar in the first place. Now if the fans complain in the end, then FIFA may be more reluctant to give hosting rights to such countries in the future. Qatar officials are thinking that they will showoff with all their petrodollar wealth and that will stop people from complaining. But in the end, there will be at least a few brave people who are not blinded by all that wealth. Jordan Henderson and Gareth Southgate from England have already made their concerns public.

a big problem is that there will be a lot of money flowing in and only one or two people who complain about certain things will not be able to do anything about it, especially when the officials are even going to be paid quite well
unless it is a problem that is raised by a large number of people and unless something is done so that FIFA actually has to react to it, nothing is going to change

i think FIFA is going to play it safe by saying that they are giving a country that isn't that good at football the opportunity to host the world cup and through that, they are probably going to get a lot more interested in the game as a result, there is no doubt that the truth is known by all of us

Lose from Shaktar Donetsk 4-1 at champion league makes Leipzig management have lose their patience to Tedesco so sacked him is the final decision although after 9 months in charge Tedesco has presented DFB Pokal trophy but this doesn't make he had safe position on this team and his replacement Marco Rose had difficult tasks here because he targeted Leipzig had better performance under him and his first test will be difficult because he have to faced his former team Dortmund and with the current situation of Leipzig i highly doubt they can win the match
Leipzig management have losing their patience exactly after defeating by Shakhtar Donetsk 4-1 at Champion League, not only bad result with Europe competition but also Leipzig got bad result on domestic league after one winning and two draw and loss from five games. I think enough reason for Leipzig management sacking Tedesco although he was success SFB Pokal trophy from his position as Leipzig manager.
Marco Rose as new Leipzig manager will faced difficulty on first match in domestic league, Dortmund have waiting for Leipzig against in next week and become proof for him bring back Leipzig to top standing position.

Leipzig's life is not going to be easier in the near future as Dortmund is waiting for them, the next match will be against Dortmund, and they will be facing each other, this is not going to be an easy task for the new authority at all, there is no question that Leipzig must improve their performance in order to succeed
having finished in the top four of the table last season, it is simply not possible for a team to start the next season in this manner
as of right now, they are ranked 11th in the table, which is the worst position for them

i agree that they had to change something really quickly, they could have been in a lot more trouble if they had not done this
however, i think that even after making this change, they might not start in the right way, as they will be facing a very strong team in the next game

would you say that Australia is trying to create a team that will have a greater amount of experience rather than a team that has more talent?
in the past we have seen that the Australian team has done a very good job when they have a good amount of experience on board, but in this day and age where the players in every team have to be really quick and enthusiastic, is it really the best approach?
there is no doubt that the team needs some young players on it, i am quite sure they have caught enough players in the pipeline
My problem is not with Australia selecting experienced players. Rather, my issue is with Australia sticking with oldies despite their repeated poor performance. They should replace players who don't perform. And this is the reason why today's Australian team can't be compared to the squads from 1990s. Back then, they were the best in the world, and only South Africa could give them some competition. But look at the Australian team today. They are the weakest team within the pig-4 grouping, at least in the ODI format.

yes, on that problem, i have to agree with you, Australia is still going on with the really old generation which is obviously not performing as it once did, i think Australia really should give chances to the younger generation, i think at least they should give them are chance because i believe they will be able to perform better perfect to what the older generation of Australia is doing right now

i believe they should keep two to four old players in the squad maximum, other players should be young and are currently performing well, i know that players are going to know a lot more with experience but the problem is if their bodies cannot do what they are supposed to, all that knowledge is going to be worthless
