After getting a win against Liverpool, of course, the mentality of the Manchester United players improved drastically because after slumping in the first 2 matches they were actually able to win against a big Liverpool team.
and for the next game I think it is very possible Manchester United will get a positive result even though against Southampton it is not easy but for a team that has high confidence and also more quality players it is very possible for Manchester United to win this game.
Manchester united might have drawn motivation from their last match against Liverpool after a 2:1 win but the fact still remains Liverpool was the better team all through the match. Manchester hasn't built enough confidence for the season and secondly Southampton will be playing at home against United. If Hag must win this he needs to build a formidable defense and Midfield before the match

As a result of the difficult economic times, do you consider that there will be more women entrepreneurs competing with men in this field which it so looks like they currently dominate?

Women has dominated several sectors of the economy where men once dominated. I believe strongly that success is not gender based it is a combination of determination and hard work irrespective of gender. By statistics women are more likely to survive more than men during difficult economies and in our present society women tends to get more opportunities than their male counterpart because most of those sectors are trying to balance up the gender ratio

I agree, Bayern players going to play in the world cup will not be a problem because the talent level between their players and other players is just way too much. I mean Bayern is not even in the same class as them. This feels like you took a great team in first division, and put it on second division for fun, they do not feel like Bayern belongs to the same league as everyone else.

This is why I believe that the results will not be based on what they are doing on world cup, the results are already in and they are going to be pretty good champions all over again, for like a millionth time in a row without a trouble even if they had like a few injured players time to time.
Remember in the world cup the entire Bayern players will only play for their respective countries and only one team wins the cup. What makes a good performance in soccer game is not just having good players it requires selfless play and team work. Many Bayern stars will play against their team mates in the world cup. I think the expectations will be very much different from what you are imagining 
924  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: August 23, 2022, 06:29:26 PM
what we see is that Man United players are starting to be motivated to improve.
Their performance yesterday was better than their previous matches they have been playing, they didn't really play to my satisfaction but I think their is improvement, but I can't really say they are starting to be motivated because they managed to win yesterday's match, let's see what will happen in their next match and that will show if they are improving or not.
There was improvement compared to their first two matches. No one believed they will have a draw but the ended the game in a win. From their result the should have little motivation,  although the struggled to win but the were able to hold on to their lead.  i believe Ten Hag is gradually seeing a workable formation. Exempting Harry Maguire is his wisest decision since he joined old trafford. lets hope the motivation they have built find them a place in the top 5

Bayern Munich's nine points and goal difference of +14 (15-1) after three games is the best start by any team in Bundesliga history. Another title in the bag for Bayern? Looks very likely. Unstoppable.
Judging by the performances of the other clubs, and especially Borussia Dortmund, Bayern will have no serious rivals this season. Especially as they score an insane number of goals in all matches. The main thing is to make sure they don't slow down by the middle of the season when the Champions League games come around.
Bayern has proven the can do without Lewa. The goal difference on 9 points alone is enough inspiration to keep Bayern up and running for the Bundles liga tittle. As usual Bayern will want to slow down at the middle of the season so that the league will look a bit exciting and have a fake competitive looks. Then resume towards the end of the season and claim their trophy. Until Bayern gets a contender the title remains theirs
926  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: August 22, 2022, 12:47:43 PM
I admit that I was too optimistic about Atlético (and bet on them) but yesterday Villarreal were simply stronger in all components. However, I do not think that any of the teams will fight with Real for the title. Assuming that Atlético and Barcelona will take 2-3 place, then the fight for the fourth position will be really dramatic due to the fact that Sevilla has deflated and there are many roughly equal contenders for this ticket to the Champions League.
The Laliga is looking pretty much different and its looking like a new contender is coming in. But for now the season is still too young to draw a conclusion on who wins the spanish league title. Both Real and Villarreal at the moment  are pulling up almost equal strength.

 Athletico created nice chances in yesterdays match but Villarreal defense were actively in form. If Villarreal keep up this performance the might likely end up in the top 4 and i won't be surprised to see them fight head 2 head with Real Madrid till the end of the season
927  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: August 22, 2022, 12:27:39 PM
I have now concluded that I should not have too many expectations from a club no matter how big or small they are because in football the games are always unpredictable that is why you see unexpected results Liverpool and Manchester United both are desperate to win this match but judging from previous performances Liverpool is still in a better position to win the game.
Yesterdays matches proved this point. Will i say the expected competition from the PL is now here and so every club is putting in their best to replace the former  and regular top 4 that was becoming a norm almost each season. It will be a thing of excitement to see clubs that never grew above the middle of the table rising to the top 4 and also having the chance to play in the CL next season.This time the line for prediction has become even slimmer . For Liverpool VS Manchester game later today i don't see the possibility of either clubs hitting the full 3 points. Todays match could end in a draw.

I'm not considering Casemiro's ability with only goals and assists. I'm just pointing out that with the arrival of Casemiro, many people are thinking that Manchester United's overall gameplay will change. I do not agree with this idea. Casemiro's arrival will definitely strengthen Manchester United's midfield. But their poor defense will not change. At the same time, until Ronaldo returns to form, United's forwards will also be weak and will struggle to score.
Agree with what you said. The arrival of Casemiro might increase the strength of MU but that doesn't mean it can immediately make their gameplay better than before because indeed this cannot be determined by just one player entering because when it comes to gameplay, it is quite clear that this is related to the club's scheme and playing strategy and one player comes will not be able to change that if the other 10 are still playing monotonous.
Once the midfield and forward get strengthened  the defense will will build confidence automatically. One thing about football is confidence in the team mates. With Casemiro he can combine with his former team player Ronaldo to cause a big change in Manu style of play. Casemiro's debut will speak alot of what we should likely expect from him

On the occasion that took place in 2019 in Hong Kong where it's inhabitants took to the streets to speak against the aggressive and excessive control exercised over them by China, citizens feel they are being robbed of their rights on being a sovereign nation and this action has been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic and it's resultant attempts to curb it's spread by the Chinese government who imposes stringent measures as support from the West were not forthcoming..
The demonstration of Hong kong on the streets were not born out of mere feelings. This are Citizens who the Chinese use excessive force on and applied an aggressive legislative take over which is against the Hong Kong's Basic law

Quote
As a result of these actions by China, Hong Kong seem to struggle with their economy and this matter is made worse as their currency looks to be tied to that of the dollar.
 The Hong Kong Monetary Authority are striving to keep their currency to trade at HK 7.75 or at most HK 7.85 to the dollar. But at the rate the dollar interest rate is increasing, it's hard for the Hong Kong currency to keep up.
 Will there be a possibility of Hong Kong seeking to adopt Bitcoin as a legal tender since they seem to be a Bitcoin friendly state and it's acceptance can help reduce the Chinese government's dominance on them. What's your take on this? https://bitcoinmagazine.com/culture/bitcoin-can-free-hong-kong-from-china

Bitcoin can be a hedge on the dying economy. The fact is as the Chinese strengthens their control over the Hong Kong territory they will make moves to shift their currency from been tied to the USD but the CNY. Or possibly their digital e-CNY. The only way of avoiding this possible threat is to protect their economy by massively adopting Bitcoin and giving each citizens the right to become their own bank.

Cryptocurrency pioneers, nice to meet you, this is my dad's account.
He is a dedicated promoter of the crypto community. He used to explain Bitcoin to me when I was a kid. He watched Bitcoin come into being and grow. Because Bitcoin was too expensive to target for long-term storage, he often remorse. Many times he lost money by investing in cheaper altcoins, and the chronic stress of family life and work overload left him depressed.
I read the discussion on the development of Bitcoin in the early days of the forum, and felt very magical and incredible. This is a great invention, a great era. When Bitcoin was born, I was a 7-year-old ignorant girl, and I also missed it. got it.
We weren't there when shells were money, we weren't there when gold was there, we weren't there when cars were there, and I wasn't there when electricity was there.
Welcome to the forum just has everyone has said been your real self will make your growth more exponential. You can start by creating a new account. Technology will continue to evolve. One thing i have come to understand about Bitcoin is that as long as it is not backed by any government asset or utility the price in the future will remain unpredictable. so every time is a good time to catch the market

Those who can mine 50BTC or 25BTC in one block, you are the luckiest!
The developers of the Bitcoin community, a group of young geniuses, who did not want to have fun when they were young, but got into the field of cryptography and created a great Bitcoin. For their ideals and beliefs, I adore them very much!
I hate altcoins, they made my dad lose money and they are just imitating bitcoin, a lot of altcoins are just to scam money and then disappear, and the real king is bitcoin. So I call on everyone to join me and only believe in Bitcoin, abandon those altcoins that cheat money, and just follow it!
You really think the early miners were really lucky. The lucky ones were those who believed in the future of Bitcoin and did hold. Some miners who mined more than 50 and 25BTC back then might have misplaced their keys, some exchanged for fiat and a few still held if they are any luck ones in the Bitcoin era now is you and i because we have both seen the possibility of Bitcoin making new highs and all we need do is buy and hold.  And not just that Bitcoin is worth more valuable now than when it was 50 and 25BTC incentivised

Many feel the can trade altcoin just the way the trade Bitcoin. Altcoin remains shit projects and its discretion is subject to DYOR. To play safe in the Bitcoin ecosystem Bitcoin is the preferred project

Regulating cryptocurrency will obviously facilitate mass adoption but the area of reducing the rate at which projects rug pull i don't think it has much to do with Crypto regulation since they are associated with decentralised finance and the provide liquidity to DEXs. I think rug pull is solely regulated by the developers and influencers of those projects.
932  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Are candlestick patterns overrated? on: August 19, 2022, 07:25:02 AM
Candle sticks aren't overrated. There are two types of traders based on analysis the fundamental and Technical traders. Although some combine both. But a technical trader can't do an analysis without candle stick, it is so important that it is indispensable. If you claim the YouTube videos you have watched or the other  online articles and videos you have seen on trading hardly talked about candle sticks then what could they be using. Candle sticks is a tool that help interpret past events (price action over time) it makes prediction of future price movement with regards to past events. This candle stick formation tells stories of prices. Just like the three black soldiers, the hanging man and lots of others each gives important signal to traders especially when they form at strategic point in the market
933  Economy / Economics / Re: Lenders and borrowers during inflation on: August 19, 2022, 07:12:37 AM
👉👉Observation: Comparing the two men with the lenders profit when loan was given, if in just 9 months the purchasing price of man B is close to the total amount payed back (purchasing price + interest) by man A, what happens at the end of the 16 months if inflation keep increasing. If the lender decide to buy a tricycle after man A had finish paying his money. He will end up adding to the money before he can purchase one. When lending money to man A, the lender believes he’s making a profit of #500,000 but this doesn’t worth it anymore within that 16 months as inflation keeps increasing.
Price might not worth it anymore but lender did make some profit. Adding up to make fresh purchase doesn't mean man A ran at a loss. Imagine man A bought more tricycle before the inflation sets in he will definitely and sold them at the price man B purchased his for, It means man A will be in more profit than man B.

Blockchain != Cryptocurrency. Crypto is just a fraction of the blockchain space. Google is obviously interested in investing in the next generation of the internet which is the web 3. In the regular web 2 you sell out everything about you just to have access to the web and you don't own any data you give out. But with web 3 you own your data and you are obviously reading and writing to the web with full assurance you own your data.
935  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: why is bitcoin price important? on: August 19, 2022, 06:03:11 AM
Bitcoin now serves a dual purpose. It can be a store of value for one fellow and a medium of exchange for another and which ever purpose it serves as long as the peer in the network have total control of their funds they are still in the line with the original idea. The goal is to give every Bitcoin holder full custody of their funds without a third party interference.

937  Economy / Economics / Re: Pros/cons of deflation? on: August 18, 2022, 01:26:32 PM
In as much as both inflation and deflation are man made economic problems they are also powerful tools in the hands of economists who understands how to trade in both directions. Deflation only tends to favour producers more and inflation on the other hand are smiling pills to investors.

Paying off debts during inflation is only applicable to investors who have invested during deflation. With the two economic scenario what becomes a pros to one fellow could become a cron to another if they failed to act in regards to the trend.

High inflation or deflation rate is what an individual makes of it .
938  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: August 18, 2022, 12:45:46 PM
Man.United should rebuild from scratch at this point as I'm afraid the current team don't have a winner mentality ( besides CR7 ) as they didn't win any trophy in their last years to make them have that hunger of performing on a higher level on every game they have. And from this mentality , they snowball into more problems and in the end , I'm afraid that no one can save united but themselves and this is what Ten Haag is trying to implement in their minds because the entire locker room thinks they are the best players when in reality , they are just a mediocre team but full of talents and individually skills but that won't save them unfortunately so they need to figure it out soon how to be a team when they enter in that pitch.
Rebuilding was what i expected Ten Hag would do on his arrival but he chose to stick to the old formation and tactics. I still believe in Ten Hag and to me what he needs do is ensuring his club players maintain their original wing without minding who gets hurt in the process. Liverpool are warming up to earn their full three points at Old Trafford and Hag needs to develop a working strategy to salvage themselves from losing more points in the league
939  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: August 18, 2022, 12:16:52 PM
The situation is that Real Madrid don't want to sell Casemiro. But if the player wants to leave, then the club will let him. So far Casemiro has not asked to go to the club Manchester United.
Real Madrid's custom when a player wants to leave is welcome.  Grin  but it's good That's what respecting players is, if a player wants to leave then go ahead, no player is bigger than the club
In as much as Madrid are sluggish in selling the Brazilian Midfielder Casemiro because of his key role in the La Liga's  Champions League victory last season and United are so desperately in need of this signing, if Casemiro decides to accept the transfer Madrid will not hesitate to let him go provided United meet the £ 50 valuation criteria. Madrid is too big that the have lots of sub for every wing.
940  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A question about the block. on: August 17, 2022, 09:08:07 AM
Hello,
What is a Bitcoin block? Bitcoin is 21 million blocks, but what does the following text mean?
Quote
144 blocks per day are mined on average, and there are 6.25 bitcoins per block. 144 x 6.25 is 900, so that's the average amount of new bitcoins mined per day. Because many miners are adding new hashpower, over the last few years blocks have often been found at 9.5 minute intervals rather than 10.
Take a block to be a square or rectangular shaped (a pictorial illustration) digital ledger that stores Bitcoin transaction you can call it a holder of a transaction information. Each day transactions are been carried out and this transactions has to be recorded so that everyone on the network will be sure the coin sent existed and has not been spent before by the same address (avoiding double spending) and this is recorded in blocks held together by chains (digital chains) . On average every 10 minutes new transactions are appended to this chains in blocks that contains an  encrypted transaction information from previous blocks and new transaction information. Each block mined comes with incentives and tx fees, currently this incentive is 6.5BTC and since every block successfully mined mints out this incentive to the miner who found the nonce below the target. 21 million Bitcoin is the fixed supply of Bitcoin that will ever be mined and not 21 million  blocks

Quote
6.25 bitcoins per block? What does it mean?


Thank you.
Take it to be a reward miners get once the successfully mine a block. By mining a block i mean once the successfully add a block of transaction to the blockchain through a mining process where a hash calculation is performed by all miners in the network and each computer that participates tries to be the first to get the block hash.
