Chelsea 1---- 1 Manchester City

China has delivered its toughest blow yet to the crypto industry by declaring that all crypto-related transactions will be considered illicit – including services provided to offshore exchanges.
Crypto-related transactions will be considered illicit financial activity, including services provided by off-shore exchanges, the People’s Bank of China said on its website on Friday.
China banned all crypto transactions and vowed to root out mining of digital assets, delivering the toughest blow yet to the industry.

Crypto-related transactions will be considered illicit financial activity, including services provided by off-shore exchanges, the People’s Bank of China said on its website. It added that cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin and Tether, are not fiat currency and cannot be circulated.

Bitcoin slumped in the wake of the announcement, falling 8% to about $41,000 as of 9 a.m. in New York.

Chinese officials are going further to stamp out crypto trading for its ties to fraud, money laundering and excessive energy usage. China already has rules that bar banks from offering crypto-related services. To get around such rules, traders have moved to over-the-counter platforms and offshore exchanges.
Crypto mining’s massive energy consumption is also part of the reason the industry is coming under scruntiny. In a separate statement, China’s economic planning agency said it’s an urgent task to root out crypto mining and the crackdown is important to meet carbon goals.

China is facing a severe power crisis that’s already roiled commodities from aluminum to steel, and several industries have seen their power supplies curbed in the last few weeks.

The country is home to a large concentration of the world’s crypto miners and as recently as April had a 46% share of the global hash rate, a measure of computing power used in mining and processing, according to the Cambridge Bitcoin Electricity Consumption Index.

“The Chinese regulators have always been extreme in their views and these comments are not new,” said Vijay Ayyar, head of Asia Pacific with cryptocurrency exchange Luno in Singapore.

“The interesting part is also why they continue making these statements. Its probably because they sense continued unabated activity in China and hence having to go on an overdrive,” he added.

China’s renewed crackdown against crypto mining and trading activity started in May. That was the first time top officials had singled out crypto mining at the national level since dropping it in 2019 from a proposed list of dirty industries to be eliminated.

The move caused a collapse in crypto prices, with Bitcoin losing about half its value between April and July this year. While the market has since recovered some ground, it’s still far below the all-time high of $63,000.

Napoli at the top, but honestly speaking I do really want to see Jose Mourinho's Roma at the top at the end of the season.

Anthony Martial performance totally poor lately no doubts about it, I don't know if he's got any mental issues going down or messing with his mind.
I will always reminisce he's debut goal for Manchester United under Louis Can Gaal, perfect ain't it ?

Maybe deep down I don't want him sold, maybe I can't detect for the board on what to do, if Martial leaves gets game time, he'll hunt Manchester United down whenever they get to play against each other.
Hopefully they get him outta the premier league, and not in the hands of one of our bitter rivals, ready bro hunt us down.

Maybe I'm scared of Brentford, let's see how the reds break down the reds.
I'm sitting on the fence for Chelsea Versus Manchester City, despite the great form and beautiful style of play from Chelsea, won't be an easy one to beat Pep Guardiola again.
Can they get a draw out of this ??
Chelsea's offensive defense is my major concern, can it be broken down

Yeah, a tough one hopefully Manchester United wins this term.
Ain't goona be as easy as I think, but they'll sure do there best.
Chelsea looking hazardous, ready to cause harm to any team they come across.

You should be a Chelsea fan.
Mind what you say about Sancho, a top notch player can produce under the wrong Coach.
Everything is important to win please, the carabao cup ain't no exception.

Yeah, three points grabbed by the reds, although West Ham were the better side and favorite today no doubt.
Ole Gunner Solskjaer won't be sacked immediately but he lacks tactically, I was vexed seeing West Ham bossing our midfield when we have better midfielders.
A lot to say but I'll end here David De Gea got my heart in other,❤️it was shattered💔

Different views and perception from different people, it feels like one's already here for a year or two lol.
Reading down your replies is educative to an extent about the forum.
I feel a vital information or query will transferred as well solved, when a quality post is written.
Some are good writer's of short lines,brief and as well some can still write lengthy.
Hopefully everyone learns for the growth of the community and forum.

Teams like Southampton can be frustrating and difficult to play.
This is simply because,they defend very well, absorbs pressure, having good midfielder's in the premier,they may be underdogs but world class and top notch, they're very fast with them counter attacks,as well they play high press as Liverpool do play.
Manchester United as well had similar results,this is not new to me at all.

Liverpool forwards mane and Salah are fantastic players, they're already chasing records made by Didier Drogba for the highest goal scorer's in the premier league.
Salah has been very consistent he'll be the first to do this....in space of two to three games.
I'm wondering how Liverpool will cope without them when they leave for the African cup of Nation

The old ladies will do everything possible to win this one, I'v been anticipating for this match.
You're correct, maybe it's 2---0.

It's clearer than what it seems to be, it's obvious Barcelona will strive a little and they're not favorites for the la Liga.
Real Madrid, a bit stronger than we all see, an experience coach that have won severally here.
Maybe there backline defense is a bit porous if im to day about it.
Athletico Madrid are Champions, they'll want to do everything to retain the title.....we all know there capabilities.

Team one 2 ----2  Triumph

2---2

Actually been deliberating about this, i don't know if they're.
Having similarities with 1xbet
Have you been Gambling with 1xbet ? I don't think you'll find but difficult using 1xbit as well.

Ole Gunner Solskjaer is tactically poor, he's not the one for Manchester United, I think he's only been backed by his colleagues as well the gaffer Sir Alex Ferguson.
He's decision making is far from good.

Bale is an outstanding playing, it's unfortunate he's injury prone at the moment.
Players are been messed up mentally, I believe he's one of the players that have been In such a situation.
Hopefully he ends he's current contract at Real Madrid.

Barcelonia 2--1 Bayern Munich

Match day 4 in the premier league was interesting,The Portuguese were on target,from the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Bruno Fernandez and Bernardo Silva...I expected Diego Jota as well on the scoreboard yesterday but he wasn't.

Paul Pogba's brilliance was seen and felt in the pitch,Matic was excellent great vision and passing accuracy, switching play from left to right.
Tottenham lost for the first time after three consecutive wins, meanwhile crystal palace with there first three points of the season.

Romelu Lukaku has been fantastic since he's return to he's boyhood team, scoring three goals in three matches a great start for him.
Salah as well shows he's impact in the Liverpool's game against leads United.
