Flick's decision not to agree to the sale of Fermin was the right one, as Barcelona cannot afford to sell their current players carelessly if they want to strengthen their position next season. The team will undoubtedly feel the impact when a good player leaves, especially if Barcelona cannot then acquire another player of comparable quality to the one they sold. Therefore, not selling Fermin was a good move, and it's clear that Flick has seen the team's intricacies, which is why he immediately disagreed.
Every team is trying to strengthen their squad. But Barcelona is not buying any new players. Barcelona played very well last season. And Hansi Flick wants to create his own match strategy with the same squad. The decision not to sell Fermin is right. Fermin is only 22 years old and a young player with great potential. We saw good performance from Fermin last season. If given enough opportunities, we will see even better performance from Fermin in the future. And this is why Hansi FLick is not willing to sell Fermin right away. |

In my case, my predictions are as follows:
1. Napoli
2. AC Milan
3. Juventus
4. Inter
5. Roma
Why did I make this choice? Because in my opinion, Napoli is much better, because they still have the same squad and the same coach, while the other teams have made changes to the squad and coaches. However, Inter's case is more problematic. I don't see them finishing in third place. I see Milan fighting with Napoli for the title, and Juventus could also surprise,
I respect your prediction... You put Napoli at the top of the table. And also I think they deserve it. They played great last season and this season the Napoli management is making the most effort to strengthen the squad compared to other clubs in Serie A. So Napoli is very serious about winning the title, that's for sure. But why do you put AC Milan in second place? I don't understand that. We haven't seen a good performance from Milan last season. The team was in eighth place in the table at the end of the season. Milan should have tried to strengthen the squad this season. But Milan didn't make any big transfers except for defensive midfielder Samuele Ricci. Milan bought Ricci for 23 million. Especially I would say that AC Milan will not be able to compete for the title if they don't strengthen this squad. |

India are trying to avoid their disaster but there is uncertainty about how successful they will be. Losing 4 wickets for 58 runs makes it challenging to control the match. KL Rahul is batting well in this difficult time for the team but England bowlers are bowling brilliantly at the same time. Shubman Gill is out for just 6 runs and another opener Yashasvi Jaiswal is out for a duck, leaving India in danger of losing this Test. I think the few batsmen they have will not be able to avoid their defeat. India still need 135 runs to win this Test and England need six wickets and the fans are still waiting to see the thrilling situation on the last day.
 Many thought India would easily win the target of just 193 runs. Because India was able to collect big in the last two matches. But they may notice that the match is being held at Lords. And we know that first 1/2 days batsmen are able to bat well on the lords pitch, it becomes very difficult to bat in this pitch for the last two days. And it is almost impossible to collect the big. If England could have given the target around 250, I would say that England would win. However, the match has become quite competitive due to the target of 193 runs. India still has the potential to win, India lost 4 wickets very quickly. The team needs 5 runs to win. Rahul and pant will start batting on the fifth day. If this pair can bat better like the first innings they are likely to win |

I can understand America's concerns about the expanding geography of brics, as this could create a global market parallel to the current global trade market. However, I see no reason to fear for the position of the $$$ in the global market as a whole. Even brics member countries, including China and Russia, cannot completely eliminate the use of the US dollar. Likewise, no BRICS country can impose its currency as an alternative to dollar transactions, as this would create a new reality with the same crises, in which we would simply replace the dollar with another currency. Furthermore, it does not look obvious that the brics countries are ready to issue a new unified currency for use in trade.
The goal of BRICS is de-dollarization and that means reducing dependence on the USD, they are not saying that they will completely eliminate USD from international trade. Although the USD still dominates foreign exchange reserves and trade, its dominance is clearly waning, especially in the first half of 2025. As the value of the US dollar fell more than 10% against a basket of world currencies, it was the worst decline since 1973. Unlike before, all commercial transactions use USD. But now some countries, especially the BRICS bloc, are using currencies like CNY, RUB instead of USD...so it would be incorrect to say that the position of USD is not under threat. |

Learnt that during the corona 2020 many stock market were force close which means people couldn't buy neither where they able to close their positions. It was a mess everywhere, the government was trying to do some control damage but that's too centralized and not fair, unlike Bitcoin it's yours to decide even with a centralized exchanges.
The stock markets have experienced the fastest sell-off in history, they did not completely shut down during the covid pandemic. Only a few physical offices closed and moved entirely online to comply with social distancing regulations at the time.Additionally, some markets have triggered trading halts(circuit breakers) to reduce dumping and reopened shortly thereafter. Major stock markets like the US and Japan never closed during Covid. Both the stock market and bitcoin crashed during covid, and both only really recovered when governments decided to pump money. |

Over time, Trump has become like a bully, and it is very natural that now more countries are leaning towards BRICS because its goals are clearer and members synergize with each other to build the economy and various other more beneficial goals.
It should be noted that the US has been a bully for decades, not just under Trump. No matter who becomes president, the United States will never stop bullying the world in one way or another. If not tariffs, then sanctions, embargoes or attempts to create war...It's just that Trump's approach is more extreme and direct, making people see the true nature of America more clearly. But that's also a good thing, because thanks to Trump, the rest of the world has more incentive to reduce its dependence on the US. Although the taxed countries are going through hardship, this is also an opportunity for them to escape the US dictatorship. |

Bangladesh has won the second T20I by 83 runs and that's a comprehensive win. Just look at score card of SL team, only two batsmen are able to score runs in double figure. Bangladesh bowlers did good bowling and not allowed any SL batsmen to settle apart from 41 runs partnership between Dasun Shanaka and Pathum Nissanka. Bangladesh batsmen also struggled to score runs but Litton Das, Towhid Hridoy and Shamim Hossain scored enough runs to gave SL a decent target of 178 runs. For 76 runs innings, Litton Das is given man of the match award.
Did any of us imagine that Bangladesh would win by a big margin of 83 runs? Bangladesh team always surprises us. We considered Sri Lanka team as favorite in this match. But Bangladesh won by a big margin of 83 runs. The team gave a target of 178 runs. Sri Lanka could not collect even 100 runs. RIshad and Shoriful bowled excellently. However, Bangladesh's two openers failed today too. If Liton and Shamim could not play big innings, Bangladesh could not collect even 150 runs. Liton played an innings of 76 runs. Shamim's innings was the most necessary. Shamim collected 48 runs in just 27 balls. We have seen Bangladeshi batsmen batting at such a smart strike rate in very few matches. |

At the same time, I would not say that people who own bitcoins will be the richest people on the planet. In my opinion, in the near future, the richest people on the planet will be people who control artificial intelligence. No less rich influential people will be people of power, that is, people who occupy high positions in the state and, as a result, have the opportunity to manage large financial flows and make significant management decisions. At the same time, Bitcoin is one of the most promising forms of wealth, not the only possible form, but one of the most promising forms.
According to Forbes, the 10 richest people today are all in business and technology like Elon, Bill Gates, Jensen Huang and I don't think this will change anytime soon. But the financial investment sector such as stocks, real estate...is the sector that produces the most billionaires and millionaires in the world. Among them, Warren Buffett is considered the most typical because the majority of his fortune ($154 billion) comes from investment profits. Therefore, bitcoin investors may be the next rich people in the future but to become the richest is not easy. If there is any bitcoin investor who is among the richest people in the world, it is Satoshi. Although bitcoin is still considered the most profitable investment, it should be noted that bitcoin has matured, investing and getting rich from it these days is not easy. Bitcoin will no longer be able to increase by millions, billions of percent, those days are gone. |

I don't know in which country people regularly earn as low as 1$ per day, I mean the majority of the population, but if there are such countries, then I'm sure that in such countries people do not have access to computers, smartphones and laptops. They won't also have access to the internet because it's expensive and might cost them 1 week of their salary. Also, with the tech and internet, you have to consider electricity, which isn't cheap anywhere besides Russia. There is simply no way for such a low earner to have access to Bitcoin or informational technologies, so Bitcoin is not really for them.
Btw in the extreme cases, if their friends or close people have access to Bitcoin and these people need to make a transaction, they can use Lightning Network or use an alternative currency like Ripple or Litecoin.
$1/day may sound extreme, but the truth is that the poorest countries in the world in Africa like South Sudan, Central African Republic or Democratic Republic of Congo...According to the World Bank, these are countries with an average income of $2-$3/day and this figure accounts for 60-80% of the population. Likewise, only 3%-10% of people in those countries have access to the Internet. That's the main reason why the adoption of bitcoin as legal tender in the Central African Republic quickly failed just a few months later in 2021. You are right, bitcoin is not for them.  https://www.worldatlas.com/gdp/the-poorest-countries-in-the-world.html |

In other words, they are an example of collective stupidity at its finest.
Just because an organization or individual doesn't invest in bitcoin doesn't mean they are stupid. We don't need to be hostile or hateful towards people who don't want to or refuse to invest in bitcoin because it is their choice and right. Everyone has different opinions, preferences, and tastes, so don't try to impose your thoughts on others. For corporations like MS or Apple, focusing on business, products...is the top priority because that is their core. Maybe bitcoin is not a priority for them and just because they refuse to invest in it now doesn't mean they won't invest in it later. As a tech giant with over $3 trillion in capital, they will always have the opportunity to invest in bitcoin when they are ready. |

 India played well. At least the team is batting better than I expected. Rishab Pant and Kl Rahul started the day very well. Rahul scored 100 runs and Pant's total was 74 runs. Apart from these two batsmen, Jadeja played a responsible innings of 72 runs. India's overall batting was very good. And the team is slowly moving towards a big total. India's total is 378 runs for the loss of 7 wickets. The team is trailing by only 9 runs. Now Washington Sundar and Akash Deep are at the crease. Although they are not very experienced batsmen, they have the ability to collect at least 50+ runs. India can probably take a decent lead of 60-70 runs |

Why save your money in what seems to be more stable than invest in Bitcoin with expectations of having massive returns. For long term indulgence i rather have my money invested into Bitcoin than any other digital asset. My $100 in Bitcoin can one day turn into $1000, i don't think gold is capable of giving such return in the same time gap.
No one denies that Bitcoin can yield better returns than gold, as bitcoin is a speculative asset and still small, while gold is already a safe haven and is huge. But don't forget that the higher the return, the greater the risk, bitcoin is much riskier than gold. Also, making x10 profit from bitcoin is not easy in these days. Bitcoin has matured somewhat and the growth rate is slowing down significantly. Investing in bitcoin can give better returns than many other investments but it will not make us rich with $100 or $10k. Comparing Bitcoin to gold is obvious that many will prefer Bitcoin due to high returns, gold seems to be more stable and doesn't serve my benefits.
It depends, not everyone likes volatility and risk. There are still many people who prefer the stability and safety of gold, and that is why bitcoin has not yet surpassed gold in terms of capitalization. |

And Bayern's performance might not be seriously encouraging in the Champions League, and everything is now different because its strategy might not be effective, but wait for the new season and what will happen.
I think performance is something we should always consider when criticizing a team However, I like the performance they've obtained in the Club World Cup Could it be because of the money they're earning and the players' fame? That has a lot of influence, Money is always necessary, and that even influences performance. I have been criticizing Bayern Munich since they changed their coach. Kompany may be talented. I will not get into this argument. But does Kompany have enough experience? Kompany has been in charge of any big club like Munich in the past. An experienced coach is needed to do well on the Champions League platform. Although they can perform well in the Bundesliga, we have seen Munich completely fail in the Champions League. Munich is not able to play well especially against big teams. So how will the team dominate the Champions League? |

On the evidence of this tournament, PSG is very superior. But remember they lost to Botafogo 0-1. So I still believe anything can happen. We understand that PSG stepped into Final ii by beating big clubs like Bayern Munich, Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid. So PSG's statistics I think look better than Chelsea. But I think Maresca can learn with Botafogo, Maresca might be able to find how to stop PSG's game pattern with Enrique. This condition is not impossible, I think Chelsea can do it.
You want to rely on Maresca. Do you think Xabi Alonso is somehow less talented than Maresca? Xabi Alonso failed to stop PSG even with his best XI. The team lost by a huge margin of 4-0. Naturally, PSG players are more confident now after beating Madrid by such a huge margin. It cannot be said that Chelsea has no chance of winning. Football is always unpredictable. And that is why Chelsea has a chance of winning. But considering the statistics and recent form, it can be said without any doubt that PSG will win. |

Madrid biggest problem this just concluded season was there defense and it still showed in the club world cup semi finals against PSG the defense was really awful and too many mistakes that would have been avoided madrid should try and strengthen their defense before the start of the new season so that they don't suffer thesame thing like this season because the problem is still there
Madrid was taking the necessary measures to strengthen their entire squad. But in the match against PSG, we saw again the terrible weakness of Madrid's defense. Madrid bought Alexander Arnold to strengthen the defense. There are also talented defenders like Carvajal, Militao, David Alaba, Mendy and Rudiger. Madrid's defense has a lot of experienced defenders. Even then, if Madrid's defense cannot do well, then it will definitely be considered their tactical weakness. I don't think Madrid needs to buy more experienced defenders. |

Antony is not a bad choice if he’s added to the team in my own opinion, but he needs to strengthen other positions too just like the striking role because that’s where the team will be in need of more for next season. Seeing Boniface also leaving the club will have them no choice than to bring in a new striker to fill that position. He’s a great talent but he needs to be very decisive in bringing in players that would make the next season better for them. We might not be able to see from the same direction as him, but it’s better he makes the right choice that he will not regret when the season already begins.
I do not know why Ten hag is so interested in Antony. A few years ago we saw that Antony was bought for a huge amount of money. But Manchester united 's biggest mistake was buying Antony. Antony did not play well in a single season for Manchesterunited. Now we see that manager Ten hag wants to add Antony to the Leverkusen squad. I do not expect good performance from antony. I donot know if Antony will do well with Leverkusen. But I haven not seen Antony perform better in any season so far . Antony only managed to score 9 goals in his most successful season, that was 2020-21 season. So if Leverkusen management spends a huge amount for Antony, they will be making a mistake. |

we saw SHubman Gill failed in the first innings. Indian captain was dismissed after scoring just 16 runs from 44 balls. India lost their third wicket for 107 runs. Although Gill could not bat well, KL rahul is batting very carefully today. Rahul is staying at the crease after scoring 50 runs.
It is difficult for India to take the lead in this match. However if Rahul and Rishab pant can play a big innings, india can take the lead. Apart from this, Jadeja, Nitish Reddy and Washington Sundor are capable of batting well. But their batting is a bit erratic. So if India loses any more wickets before scoring 200 runs, it is probably not possible for them to take the lead.
At the end of the first day , India managed to score 145 runs for the loss of 3 wickets. We have not seen any better batting from experienced players like Jaiswal and Gill. These two players managed to score 13 and 16 runs respectively. Apart from this , Karun nair managed to score 40 runs. You are right that Rishab pant and Rahul will definitely have to play big innings if India wants to take the lead. Even though Jadeja and Nitish have the ability to play big innings, it is quite difficult to survive for a long time and play big innings on this pitch. It is not a batting friendly pitch. That is why India's future now largely depends on the innings of Pant and Rahul |

I don't it is fair giving Chelsea any form of hope in the final because they stand no chance against the fire power of PSG. At this point we should be discussing how many goals Chelsea will concede in that match and not if the stand a chance at winning or not. I like Chelsea as a team but sometimes it's good to face reality which for this case is that PSG will conveniently neutralise Chelsea without blinking an eye. I just hope Chelsea will fight hard to prevent an embarrassing defeat such as the one suffered by Real Madrid.
If Chelsea can win this match then they are lucky. Only if luck is with Chelsea then Chelsea can win or they can't. Because till now we have seen PSG's overall performance. PSG doesn't care about the strongest squads in Europe like Real Madrid and Munich. They have dominated the match and won by a big margin. In such a situation it is not difficult for PSG to win against a team like Chelsea. We are surprised by PSG's performance in every match. We were waiting for the Madrid vs PSG match with great interest. We thought we would see a fiercely competitive match. But just 10 minutes into the match we realized that Madrid has no chance of winning. I think Chelsea's main target in this match will be not to concede a goal. Chelsea will play completely defensive in the match. And if they play defensively then Chelsea will have some chance of winning the title if luck helps them. |

If cryptocurrencies disappear - how will your life change ?
This is called an impossible hypothesis since the didn't explain how it could happen. The only possibility is that the internet and electricity go out across the entire planet, possibly due to a meteor or a collision with a neighboring planet, and we lose all the servers that hold copies of the blockchain. If someone can explain how this scenario could happen, I can then consider how not just my own but all of our lives would change. The scenario of crypto suddenly disappearing completely is impossible, there is no viable reason or hypothesis that suggests it could happen. But a major collapse like the tulip bubble or the dotcom bubble is possible and we should not be too subjective. Although there is a huge difference between dotcoms and bitcoin, because bitcoin is a decentralized asset not owned by any company, and its value is based on scarcity and trust in its network. But what they have in common is excessive speculation, and this can easily lead to a major crash if speculators withdraw their capital en masse. That would certainly cause serious damage as well. |

If Bitcoin becomes the major currency of every country, in countries where the inflation rate is at double-digit, it won't be that bad again. The major cause of inflation is devaluation of the currency, so it is no longer able to afford what it could previously afford. This leads to an increase in the prices of goods and services in the country. But with the scarcity of bitcoin, that won't be a problem.
Also, the political and economic unrest of the country won't affect their currency. I think it will benefit 3rd world countries the most because they are the ones with failing currencies, economies and political systems. All these are just hypothetical, though, because I can't imagine a world where Bitcoin becomes the main currency.
It is true that currency devaluation is a cause of inflation and poverty, but it is not the main or only cause. There are many causes of inflation, and it is a combination of many factors such as poor state management, imbalance of supply and demand, high production costs, disrupted supply chains... Just like the covid pandemic has caused the economy to stagnate, supply and demand are out of balance...thus causing inflation to increase. Or the war between Russia and Ukraine causes oil and grain prices to rise, and countries that depend on oil and grain imports suffer high inflation due to supply disruptions. In this case, bitcoin does not help us. The situation will get worse because the government will not be able to print money to regulate, balance and save the economy. |
