Price somewhere around $20k will be bottom range for Bitcoin. I see price soars from $20k so if Bitcoin has serious correction to where it began, it would stop around $20k.

I don't bet Bitcoin will drop to and touch $20k but I don't exclude it from my plan. From $35k to $20k will be 45% correction and I think Bitcoin if falls to $20k, will need a few weeks to drop to it. It is easy for whales to dump it to $20k in last week of January or first week of February but I don't think they will make such manipulation. Because they will keep it last longer to make people feel tired, boring and shake them out from the game.

Valencia are a big threat to Athletico Madrid and will want to go all out to win them considering the fact that Athletico Madrid are in a very poor form at the moment.

Nevertheless,Athletico really need to win this match to gather some mumentum,and start winning games as usual.
Atletico Madrid have very bad season because they began it as a champion of La Liga. Suarez does not have good performance in this season which affect the club as well. They will not renew a contract with Luiz Suarez and it is not a good ending for him in Madrid. I think with what he contributed for them, they should give him one more season to play there.

Suarez got bad treatment from Barcelona, then joined Atletico and helped them win La Liga. Now, what club will he join after all?  Return to Premier League and end his career there or move to MLS and enjoy last season in his career with high salary?

West Ham lose their last game and will not want to loose again to Manchester United.They were in a good form before they lost that match but I believe they will show a good fight against Man-u.

Meanwhile,Manchester United will want to do everything possible to win that match despite the fact that West Ham is a strong side.Indeed,the match will really be a tough one.
The issue is not from West Ham. West Ham can not be in their best form but Manchester United are in worse form than West Ham. Currently Manchester United have troubles to beat any team in Premier League, not only West Ham. I am sorry to say so but West Ham are able to not only get 1 point but 3 points from Manchester United.

This season began with lot of hope for Manchester United after they have Ronaldo, Sancho but Sancho means nothing so far and Ronaldo can not carry all team while some other players, even Bruno Fernadez has worse than previous seasons. I believe that Manchester United need to have a summer transfer for big changes with many players leave and many others come to change quality and motivation in the club.

Seeing as Bitcoin was created as a deflationary money system, it is a very good investment against fiat inflation, I would say. However that can also go both ways. So if for some reason, the US government decided to start "burning" dollars as to increase the buying power of each dollar, then by contrast, this would drive the price of Bitcoin down and could also push people invested in bitcoin into a panic sell.

But I doubt that will happen.
Government won't burn dollars. They can print their fiats from thin air and do give-away events to their citizens but they won't officially operate and announce any burn events as deflationary mechanism. They can burn damaged or unusable fiats but it is not burn for deflation. They will mint more new fiats to replace it later.

Bitcoin is deflationary by design which can not be changed by a single person. Changes are possible but only if the Bitcoin community can reach to a consensus for big changes in protocol. I think the community will never vote to change Bitcoin from deflationary to inflationary. If dollars go down in purchasing power more and more significantly, more people will recognize this painful fact, and Bitcoin will be their choice to be survived and get rich.

Therefore, we should be aware of such risk and take it into consideration when we use CEX, submit KYC verification, use apps for fantasy images. When we give our data to third party websites, we can not erase such data and risk will follow us forever. It's bad as we can not proactively to delete such data, to get rid of any risk.

Tottenham started to catch up, the difference with the 4th position is also very thin, even the next opportunity is full of challenges.  Facing Chelsea is not easy but it is possible they will win, in recent matches Chelsea have only been able to draw with their opponents.  Until I wonder what's wrong with them.  Getting to the top instead of the spirit of chasing City, they played quite standardly so they didn't struggle to win.
Tottenham are doing very different than the past season. In the last one, they began very good and even participated in title competition. Things went worse in second part and Mourinho was sacked. In the end, they lost a position in top 4. In this season, they began very slowly and got troubles with postponed matches. Now, they gradually to climb higher on the table and stands very closely to top 4.

Their players now are more united than in the past season and Conte is bringing the same effect as Tuchel did in Chelsea last season when he came and replaced Lmpard.
2167  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 on: January 20, 2022, 04:44:06 PM
Among several league competitions that exist in Europe at this time, in my opinion La Liga has a more competitive competition compared to other leagues this season, Madrid is currently only 4 points away from the club in second place, and if you compare it with the top English league, Ligue 1, Bundesliga and also the Italian league, of course you can see if the competition for championship is even tighter in La Liga between Madrid and Sevilla, while other leagues may not have a position change that will occur until the end of the season, because indeed the club in the top position has left their opponent by quite a distance at this time.
Do you forget about Serie A? AC Milan and Inter Milan are very close to each other in Serie A.

In La Liga, Real Madrid look to have more experience than other clubs with their players and their trophies recent seasons. 4 points are not big gap but they can take advantage of it with their experience for long run competition. So I think La Liga is less interesting than Serie A but difference between two leagues is very small.

Others like Premier League and Bundesliga have boring competition when Manchester City and Bayern dominate those leagues with too big difference than opponents.

A London restaurant owner has revealed his story of Bitcoin investment that saved his business from the economic impact out of the pandemic.
It can be helpful this time, in this pandemic time but it is not a good strategy if a small company save all business fund in Bitcoin or any cryptocurrency.

I know Bitcoin has very good growth rate but it is only safe in long term perspective. If a small company save all fund in Bitcoin and if things on the market go badly in short term, it is terrible for that company without other resources. Then the company will have to sell Bitcoin for fiat. What if they have to do this in a 30% crash? It's terrible situation even you know Bitcoin will recover and grow more in next few months or years.

That's why I said Leicester almost got the full points if Tottenham weren't lucky to score in the 90+ minutes, that's huge luck. So, I personally still don't believe Tottenham will be consistent because they are still difficult and Conte has to make a big change in the squad, because the current squad I think will still be difficult for Tottenham to be in the title race.
Yesterday, Leicester City don't have too much ball possession but they are very dangerous with attacks and they scored two goals as well. Spurs fortunately to score two late goals from a substitute player and won the match. It is a very late goal and with this win, Tottenham are very closely to West Ham with 1 point less.

Also they have 2 more matches to play and with the energy from Conte and recent good results, I think Spurs will manage to take over the fourth position soon.

[GUIDE] All About Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC)

After you read that topic and hyperlinked articles, I believe that you will have deeper insights about CBDCs. Then you will understand that fiats, CBDCs are only make inflation worse.

Bitcoin is a store-of-value asset so that it can be a very good weapon against inflation and fiats, CBDCs. You are saying oppositely to the truth.

I think in the beginning of the season was the start of an adaptation for Juventus, because they lost Ronaldo and the absence of several key players. Now, Allegri has shown that the period of dependence with Ronaldo is over, they can rise to break the dominance of the 3 teams under Inter, Napoli, Milan and Atalanta. If, Inter and other then has difficulty in the rest of the season, there could be a surprise from Juventus with their consistency which in my opinion is much better.
Max return makes sense and despite of some unstable performance in early phase of season, Juventus and Max are doing good things. Together, they bring back the domination of Juventus in Serie A. With Juventus' latest form, I am sure that all teams in Serie A will have to be fearful or at least very carefully when their opponent is Juventus.

It is unofficial recognition of Juventus improvement under Max management. I think if they can have 2 to 3 good transfer in the summer, next season, Max will be able to bring Juventus back to Scudetto competition. He is smart and has enough experience to do this for Juventus. On player side, Juventus have good players but they must keep Dybala in the club. He is very important for them now and in this season, Dybala does not have many injuries and does not miss too many matches.

You have to watch advertisement in order to get BAT in reward. Additionally, do you like to do verification in order to claim your $BAT? I do not like this procedure and a whole thing. Because I have to accept annoying advertisement  just to have been able to get some $BAT but not only this, KYC is a next step to claim it.

In addition, Brave browser does not have much different than Chrome. Don't let their promise on privacy and use Brave. If I would prefer to use a browser to protect my privacy, it should be Tor browser or Fire Fox, not Brave.
2173  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Is a P2P trade always documented ?? on: January 19, 2022, 02:54:57 PM
Documented on what?

On blokchain, public ledger or on a P2P platform you use for your P2P trade. It is always recorded on a public ledger but if you use a P2P platform for your trade, it can be worse. Because the platform will record your trade history (txhash, username, screenshot, and your identity document, etc.)

On some P2P marketplaces, you will have to pass KYC to start trading. It is not much different from trading on CEX. There are very little true DEX to use in order to avoid documented records that you don't want.

It is a pretty obvious fact that Paris Saint-Germain wants to win the Champions League this season, however, it was obvious in previous seasons.
PSG and Manchester City want it in the last decade and they both came closely to the title in last few seasons. They have first Champions League final but failed in their finals.

Quote
Given the amazing statistics of Mbappe's game for the club and his system-forming role in the team, I would like to say that it will be much more difficult to do without his participation, given the periodic absence of Neymar and also the absence and some problems in adapting to Messi. Therefore, the management of Paris Saint-Germain is facing a difficult dilemma when Mbappe's playing until the end of the season in the team and the potential departure after the end of the season or the sale of the player now and the weakening of the chances of winning the Champions League are on the same scale.
Mbappe in this season has more importance in PSG when Messi and Neymar were given a longer vacation because of Coppa America. Then they returned to the club too early than team mates and needed more time for training. Then in mean time, Mbappe and other players carried the club and more impressively, they won many matches in early of season. That is foundation for their successful big gap against opponents now.

Mbappe might only stay in PSG if they win Champions League and if Zidane becomes a new coach here. If they fail to win Champions League, I believe that PSG won't have chance to convince Mbappe.

Manchester United are going to play one of their missing matches tomorrow night.
It will be a chance for Manchester United to keep up their ability to fight against other top clubs for top 4. Will they be able to win this match against Brentford and reduce gaps with other clubs?

Else their situation will become much worse because their players are not united now. They look to have conflict with each other and with their new coach, Ragnick.

Quote
Their next opponent is Brentford in an away match. In case Manchester United win this match, they will leave Arsenal behind and capture the sixth place in the standings. Taking this into account, they should play with all they have got I think. Something is still odd about them and we saw it in the Aston Villa match too. They couldn't protect their big goal advantage. This time, they should be able to finish the job successfully.
Problems with Manchester United come from all main parts in the squad, from defense, midfield to attacking areas. In some matches, they get troubles to have ball possession and score goals, some others they fail to protect goals in order to win. In some other matches, their defense and attacking system are all broken by opponents.

They have many good players but they are not playing for the club with highest ability they can.

Even when you think you have enough knowledge of crypto, it does not mean you are safe in crypto market and are able to win in this market.

Cryptocurrency is a very fast changing industry and things you have today will be outdated next few months. So you have to update your knowledge every day, every week. Furthermore, knowledge is fundamental but with which, it's not enough to win in this market. You must have ability to do risk management, portfolio management and emotional control. A good combination of such will help you to win in this market.
2177  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Wallet Exodus: experiences ? What do you think? on: January 17, 2022, 03:14:21 PM
I believe it isn't whether it is open sources or not but rather do people can trust enough a closed source wallet that's held our funds or not. Noting the closed nature of the developments, personally, I'm having a hard time trusting some hidden code that "held" my funds, who know what kind of code is built-in within those applications. I believe if there is a reliable open-source alternative, people should be in favour of that instead of a closed sourced one. Technically, it is way more better in term of transparency and code audit checks.

Though, I do were once use Exodus wallet, and it was a pleasant experience in terms of user experiences. But the closed-source nature is really a no go for me.
I know but people technically want to use open source wallets more than close source wallets. Or at least it is what they said. I know difference between what people said and what they actually did.

Many people say they like DEX but they use CEX more than DEX. They say they are fearful of losing their coins on CEX because they don't have private key but they still use CEX.

I wrote that Exodus is a good wallet if you don't mind too much about open source or close source
2178  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Wallet Exodus: experiences ? What do you think? on: January 16, 2022, 02:40:16 PM
Exodus wallet is a non custodial wallet and it's great because you own private key of your wallet. However, that wallet is not completely open source that is a minus point for people who seriously believe in open source.

This wallet is for multiple coins so you will do have good comfortable experience when you use it to store multiple coins.

I heard Joan Laporta have a strong relationship with Harland agents and they are talking very seriously about a possible transfer that will take Harland to Barcelona next summer,I think Harland is just what Barcelona needs, they also said fiorentino Perez is happy for the deal to go through, knowing that Madrid has gotten a gentle man aggrement with mbappe.so I think  next season will see them both rivalry between themselves.
Laporta  Roll Eyes

Don't trust him please. Because he said his main priority is to keep Messi in Barcelona but we all knew that how Messi had to leave Barcelona with bad treatment from Laporta team.

I see it is a rumor from social media but even if it is a real statement from Laporta, I still don't trust it. Also will Haaland accept to join Barcelona? His style is different than traditional tactics in Barcelona and I think he is smart enough to be aware about that.

Real Madrid are in a superb form at the moment,and I don't think any team in the Laliga will be able to flog them for now,but this is football where anything can happen.
They have been playing well since beginning of this season but they did lost points so it does not mean they can win all matches or will keep their superb form till the end.

Other clubs have chances to flip a first position of Real Madrid on the table but they have a mountain of works to finish to achieve that.
2180  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: January 16, 2022, 02:28:39 PM
Manchester United is a team without proper midfielder.
They have Bruno, Tominay, De Beek, Fred, Sancho, Rashford, Greenwood and I see Tominay can play as a defensive midfielder. But if a team rely on a defensive midfielder to protect their defense system, it is wrong. Something seriously wrong because one player can not protect a whole defense system. Other players have to contribute to create pressure on opponents and reduce pressure or risk on defense system. Issues with Manchester United are not only in that position but also in their whole system which looks to be very weak, not united and broken.

Quote
The result is always loss rather than good forward and defence. In the first 30 mins of the match, Manchester United were good only because of that blunder of Emi Martinez made and it raised their morale. However, after 30 mins I was totally surprised that the midfield got dominated again and they even outplayed us in 2nd half. Kudos to De Gea saved so many time or else it would have been an easy win for Aston Villa.
Leading two goals from Bruno, and have some excellent saves from De Gea but in the end, they got 1 point. It is seriously wrong and we already saw and talked about attitude of some players in Manchester United. It is not about their quality but more related to their attitude that is bad now.
