So you want to be a crypto millionaire?
Fernando Pérez Algaba, apparently a crypto "influancer" (never heard of him), who was missing since mid-June, was found chopped up in a suitcase in Argentina.
Just a daily reminder that flashing your wealth on social media is not necessarily a good idea.

https://nypost.com/2023/07/27/millionaire-crypto-influencer-found-dismembered-in-suitcase/

I believe this is his Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fernandoperezalgaba

Has anyone heard of him? Was he a decent guy, or just another wannabe celebrity?

I believe a corpse in a suitcase can never remain dormant/well. Since the body had many pieces which a man normally (not getting identification but need police help). We can feel that a man is uninherited only when he mixes with bad people. And the closest people do the most damage are those who are used as friends (secret enemies) Fernando Perez Algaba has suffered. Crypto assets should never be disclosed by social media when enemies approach as friends which happened to Fernando Perez Algaba.

Maybe the Windies getting knocked out of the world cup race did some damage but it still looks bad overall. One potential argument would be is the ODI format is dying.
The ODI format isn't dying. The supporters and spectators of the West Indies cricket team have no more expectations from them. West Indies showed pathetic performance today, but India couldn't get an easy victory there for changing the batting lineup. India lost 5 wickets while they were chasing the small target of 115 runs.

Especially due to such poor performance of West Indies, the match ended in a very short time. But the Indian team lost five wickets while chasing this small target of West Indies. I thought India would get an easy one but in that case the Indian team failed to score. Losing such wickets in ODI matches is rare, West Indies scored 114 runs in 23 overs losing all wickets. The T20 game was played like losing wickets. Yesterday's match was held mainly on the bowling piece ground due to which both the teams were under a lot of pressure while batting.

Update from barcelona's score.

Barcelona was losing against arsenal. King havertz has been helping arsenal to lead the game. It seems like that barcelona's squad is not as strong as before. Barcelona needs to do some evaluations before the start of UCL.
It's caused by barcelona's level is still above EPL club if this time barcelona will lose against arsenal. Xavi has been using best squad to face arsenal. The game is still running and im waiting for another goal that may come from barcelona.
The defensive line of barcelona is still having a lot of weakness. Xavi needs to use the result from this match as an evaluation to the all the lines in the club. Barcelona was losing 4-2 against arsenal. How weak barcelona is right now. Im feeling skeptical if barcelona will able to win UCL next season.
Barcelona needs to sell so many of its defenders. The defensive line of barcelona is very weak.

Barcelona lost the match 5-3. Barcelona scored a goal in the 88th minute, and conceded a goal in the 89th minute. Barcelona's midfield and attacking performances were quite good. But I don't know why Barcelona's defence collapsed in this match. I was very disappointed with the performance of Barcelona's defenders. If the defence is so weak, nothing good can be expected from this team in the Champions League.

Against Arsenal, Barcelona performed well in the beginning of the game, but they did not perform well in the middle of the game, which led to the loss of the Barcelona team. In the middle of the match, Arsenal went on a rampage, especially Learndo Trossard's brace, which gave Arsenal a huge lead. But in this case, the Barcelona team did not succeed even though they attacked a lot because their attack was very normal, they only had to score through the counter attack. But because of not using that method I think Barcelona lost by two goals. Especially in the last period of the game, Barcelona scored a goal, but Arsenal scored another goal within moments.

War is one thing that no society should engage themselves into as its effect is devastating and unforgettable upon generations. When two or more countries are warring it is said that there are other countries that benefits in one way or the other from the war as it prolongs and intensifies, especially economical benefits is one of such.
 The ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine which has been on for almost a year now and the effects of the war between these two is not only on the two warring countries alone but has gone so far as affecting the economies of many countries of the world that have no involvement or interference in the said war. countries of Europe are experiencing a fall short in gas supply, while those of Africa and other continent suffer from economic downfall as a result of certain products and services that are no longer in-coming due to the war effect.
With this Russia Ukraine war which the effect is felt in almost all parts of the world directly and indirectly, I want to ask are there beneficiaries to this war and in what ways are they benefiting from it.


The biggest beneficiary of the war between Russia and Ukraine is the United States. Because during this war, they are trading arms and giving loans to the economic crisis of the country due to the war between the two countries. Thus the amount of debt to the country is fixed and the import and export of the country is disturbed. Especially the countries of the Middle East are under the most threat of economic crisis because the country is struggling in the crisis in oil, gas, coal and many others. Due to this dire situation in the current country, can the United States be filed and in this case China is involved. More and more countries are benefiting in different contexts.

Pakistan batsman Shafique in particular has done well as he has scored a double century. And if the current pair of Shafique and Salman can survive then surely Pakistan can score good runs. He entered the field as an opening batsman in the third session. But Pakistan cricket fans were impressed by his performance which lasted till the last. Sri Lanka did not perform well in this regard as they had more wickets but Pakistan started the performance in a completely different way than Sri Lanka. Scoring 200 runs off 322 balls and lasting from the first day of the match to the end of the match applies to a great batsman.

[....]Do you guys know what happened there? is it some kind of maneuver orchestrated by the competition, a very annoying user who was very upset about something, or is something really wrong with the casino?
You could read the user feedbacks on trustpilot. First few comments and you'll find the common complaints by users against any casino or sportsbook.

Truspilot may not be the most reputable review site as we already know but it's still popular so no wonder they post a lot there compared to other sites such as askgambler. Sporsbet is rated over 9 out of 10 there.

Be sure to choose trusted sites if you are into gambling or casino. Among them, sportsbet is very popular nowadays because everyone is betting. Because there are all kinds of benefits, the most benefits are available with the rates. And here is the most advantage in terms of withdrawal because many people have used this site so if you want to survive then you must take trusted site.

El Salvador Passes Key Bitcoin Law, Paves the Way for "Volcano Bonds"
A new digital asset law has been drafted in El Salvador that addresses the issue of debt repayment with cryptocurrency. And the El Salvador law, backed by the legal tender clause Naib Bukele, has gained widespread traction and benefited the public and bond and bitcoin investors. The bill provides the legal framework for bitcoin-backed bonds, and these are known as "volcano bonds." which offers to pay off the sovereign debt of Latin American nations and they also intend to use such measures.

Your news-piece post is a bit misleading because you failed/refused to provide a date in regards to your cited article that was written more than 6 months ago...

If you had provided the date, then there still may well be a need to say why you are mentioning the 6-month old information now?  To reemphasize it?  to proclaim that it was something that was missed (or under emphasized earlier). or is it something that you want to talk about (while acknowledging that it is more than 6 months old).

Yes, I admit this news is very old this news reflects on 12th January 2023. Although the news is old, El Salvador has reaped substantial benefits since the inception of this "volcano bond" law. Because El Salvador has become one of the most popular countries in the world since adopting Bitcoin. And most of all, they have found one of the ways to pay their debts through cryptocurrency. But the country of Salvador is largely self-sufficient, using volcanic bonds.

What I know is that it is not easy to control or help someone that is already an addict and we must try our best to let them know that gambling addiction is something that can be stop with the help of both parties. If a gambler is not ready to stop or too sluggish to put some certains to an end and help to set up a boundary then things is not going to work out well. It is obviously hard for a person to stop gambling when he is already addicted, the best thing to do is to help him reduce the addiction before putting an end to it.

To be honest, I don't know if it's possible to reduce an addiction. A friend of mine, a former gambling addict, once told me that addiction is such a thing that you either have it, or you don't. You can't reduce it. He was cured by a professional, and he has no addiction know, and I'm happy for him, but it's from him that I know that only a good professional can help you to end your addiction.
I think it was also driven by the desire and intention of your friend to stop gambling alias get out of his addiction because it would not be possible only to be professional to stop gambling addiction, I have a friend who is very difficult to stop gambling and get out of his addiction even though he has tried to contact a professional to stop his addiction, even though he is still playing gambling secretly from his heart's desire, it still continues to encourage him to continue playing.

My friend can't seem to control it so even a professional can't completely stop his addiction, although I heard from the success of your friend, luckily your friend has come out of his addiction, gambling addicts are indeed difficult to cure, therefore before playing gambling gamblers must really be able to control themselves before gambling.

It is quite difficult when things are like this, in fact, when a person cannot get out of the addiction, they have to do things apart from what the professional says, keep their mind occupied with other activities, so these types of activities can include studying, sharing other types of things with people  , and that has its good repercussions on Everything , in order to forget about playing, what they have to do is try not to remember what to play, and to get tired, if a person who is very tired is very difficult. It is difficult for him to start playing in a casino, because he has to Concentrate , if a person is Exhausted they will not be able to Play.


Especially the will power of the people is the most important, because people can indulge in casino if they want to and once indulged in casino it is very difficult to get out of it. So you advise your friend as usual and on the other hand or keeping the mental side busy is most important. Here the matter should be looked into because if your friend is facing more losses in the casino then it is better to stay away from the casino for some time. An experienced gambler can advise another gambler to do better. Retirement from gambling or casinos must be done gradually.
970  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Greed can cause a lost bet, (true or false) on: July 25, 2023, 06:53:26 AM

Last 2 night I signed up to an online bet called betking (become a KING) and I bet a virtual stake with 1700 naira to win 1,438,540.92 naira, but the game was lost and the bet that made it to lost was the last one I added, before I added the last one that made the winning to be this amount, I was having double thoughts like should I make the winning a random figure 1.5 million or I should stake it at 1.3? But out of greed I refused to bet the game at 1.3 and I added the one that lost the bet, what a pity?
Greed is one thing that gets some game lost, the stake we are supposed to win out of greed we add another that get the game lost.
Out of my own experience I have learnt my lessons, but I don't believe that this opportunity might ever come again because I don't bet often, on a second thought this my story is what makes some people put more interest on gambling.

Betting always depends on luck and sometimes experience is useful. I can say something about your betting that you bet with 1700 Naira and it won and your net worth is 1,438,540.92. But it is best to quickly withdraw your funds from the site you followed for betting. Because your assets are not on a trusted site, it is best to move your assets elsewhere as soon as possible. When gambling, use trusted sites that will keep your assets fully secure.

Gambling is a process that people engage their minds in. Participating in gambling only presses the win button because their money is bet.  Especially since I myself am a bit addicted to gambling so I bet and only think about winning and keep my mind so strong that I wait until the game is over. Real gamblers are full of gambling all the time and earn more money with more experience and always aim to win more. Until the resource is exhausted, one only hopes to get the resource back (if lost). Many have lost their betting fortunes while making up for losses.
973  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: As a gambler do you have a potential winning amount limit? on: July 24, 2023, 03:30:46 AM
I have heard and read about people gambling because they had no source of income,  a job or they wanted to add gambling as part of their streams of income. Whatever your category the bottom line is that we all gamble to make money though some group claim it's mainly for fun. But who would want to be losing money all in the idea of catching fun!

There are gamblers that don't place their bet not until they have gotten a certain amount as their potential win. Some do this based on their financial challenge with the anticipation that just one win they may get on such amount is a life changer for them.

My main focus on this thread is in this question: as a gambler do you place your bet according to the weight of your financial need or you're always okay with whatever amount that comes out as potential win no matter how small amount?


All the problems of human life can never be solved. Earning on the one hand and spending on the other is basically a picture of life cycle. I gamble basically with a small amount of wealth but I don't gamble I do anything by accumulating money and arguing with the main wealth. It is not possible to give up gambling completely because gambling is basically about gaining experience. If you suddenly participate in gambling, you will definitely lose, so gambling should always be on.
974  Economy / Speculation / Re: Could Bitcoin's Price dump to Halving? on: July 24, 2023, 01:24:28 AM
Bitcoin price is the most difficult to predict in the short term. Because the best time to hold long term is now and those who invested long term in the past are apt to reap the benefits. However, this year the price of Bitcoin can be as high as 45 thousand to 50 thousand dollars. Although the Bitcoin halving in 2024 indicates that the halving is unlikely to increase the price of Bitcoin in the past year. But the halving is next year, so 2025 is the most likely time for Bitcoin to cross $100,000 overnight. Follow this saying that long-term investing is the best thing to do now.

ACC Men's Emerging Cup is underway at Colombo between Pakistan-A and India-A teams.

India-A won the toss and elected to field first. Pakistan going good after 12 overs as they managed to score 74 runs without losing any wicket. 4 bowlers used by Indian side so far but no success. The projected score for Pakistan looks to be around 300 if they keep on moving like that. India defiantly looking for couple of wickets to remain in the game.
Congratulations to Pakistan A on winning the trophy once again Pakistan A win by 128 runs and are crowned as Emerging Asia Cup 2023 Champions india A only score 224 runs and lost all wickets while chasing a big target of 353 runs. It is possible only batting performance of Tayyab tahir amazing hundred runs 108 runs and also bowling performance of maqeem take 3 wickets in 10 overs. Overall performance of Pakistan A is outclass in bowling, batting and filding the player of match final match is Tayyab Tahir for his Extraordinary performance.
Pakistan is proud of you

The victory was assured due to the best bowling performance of Pakistan A team. Pakistan A team's huge win has captured a huge place in the hearts of cricket lovers. India A batsmen did not perform well as they are still babies against Pakistan A. Apart from Abhishek Sharma, the rest of the batsmen were only standing at the crease and could not score any runs for the team. Jurel and Riyan should have waited a little longer but could not occupy any ground while batting. Only one wicket fell after another.
977  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: July 23, 2023, 02:34:20 PM
Especially the India A team is under a lot of pressure due to the fall of Abhishek Sharma's wicket. Because he scored 61 runs off 51 balls which scored enough runs for the team. But unfortunately the ball was caught out on the off side.



If Abhishek Sharma could have survived, he would surely have got a chance to score a century. But Pakistan team is performing well in terms of bowling because the run rate of Pakistan A team is a little lower than India A. But if the current pair of Dhull and Sindhu batsmen can perform well then it will definitely be a competitive match. Because today everyone is desperate to win.
978  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: July 23, 2023, 10:25:28 AM
Pakistan A vs India A
 Today the final match between the two teams has started. India A has won the toss and decided to bat. Now Pakistan A team has come to bat. They have scored 107 runs in 15.1 overs. Pakistan A team has not lost any wicket so far. I can't see the performance of India A team. If the batsmen of Pakistan A team can keep the wickets even then they can give a good run target today. I dont understand which team will win today's match.I expect Pakistan A team to win more. I am sitting to watch a peaceful match between two teams in today's match. Let's see which team will win today.

Pakistan A team gave a very good batting performance with two opening batsmen scoring half centuries. Siam and Farhan have performed well on the field as opening batsmen if everyone can perform like them then surely Pakistan can score good runs today. But keeping the wicket is the main goal of the current pair of Yousuf and Tahir if they can collect good runs for the team then Pakistan will definitely be ahead. Because currently the bowling performance of India A team is not good. Because run rate should be reduced with bowling performance so today everyone will try to perform well. If Pakistan A team can collect runs like this then surely they can win if they can collect more than 350.

Bitcoin is a resource that brightens people's future. Because once a person invests in Bitcoin, there is no need to teach the person a second time because he himself is engaged in research. But we need to discuss first by teaching the interested person about the bitcoin community through discussion. Already around 55% to 60% of people around the world know at least some information about Bitcoin and most of them are involved with Bitcoin. Even in countries where Bitcoin is not legal, thousands of people are secretly using Bitcoin. Now people are more towards modern age so it is natural to be attracted to Bitcoin. And we have to discuss more about investment invitations.

Would be disappointing if the 4th test ends as a draw as it means AUS would retain the Ashes regardless of what happens in the 5th test. I don't think even AUS would like to be victorious thanks to the weather.

As it stands ENG need 6 wickets. Hopefully they get at least the full day tomorrow to do that. Would be good to get a few overs today if weather permits but it's not looking good at the moment.
The game has been started, and there is no good news for England yet. Pace bowlers were getting some good pace yesterday and some swing as well. Aussies batters seem to have the strong mindset that they won't hit the ball. Instead, they are defending. Not sure if their only target is to stay in the crease, no matter if they can score or not.

However, this is the only thing Aussies can do at this moment, as they are still a lot behind. Hopefully, English bowlers can pick some wickets if the weather remains good for the rest of the day. The 5th match will be nail-biting if England can win this match.

Play started but lights still on due to heavy clouds. That's the reason only spinners are allowed to bowl. England have not done good today in the field as they dropped few catches. There is 100 runs partnership between Marnus Labuschagne and Mitchell Marsh, still no wikcet for England on Day 4. Australia now trail by only 66 runs.

England have scored enough runs though a big one for Australia at the moment. Because currently Australia is batting but not able to collect very good runs because the advantage of the bowlers is more due to the rain which can give enough speed to the bowling field. That's why the game is temporarily closed at the moment. If Australia can collect another 61 runs, it will be equal to England's runs. In this case, Australia played two innings and England one. With England scoring enough runs, Australia will have to work hard to match.
