That's good to see Pogba is going to be back soon. However, I'm still 50/50 on taking him back. He'll add depth and experience to our midfielders. But, he's probably a shell of his former self. He hasn't played in a couple of seasons. I doubt he'll return to his previous levels.

And the question is: is Pogba really going to be useful to the current squad? Does he fit in Motta’s tactic?

Agreed, we will see how ETH perform for the upcoming recovery once things are starting to pick up.

but I kinda got the eerie vibe of holding ETH right now, the ETF inflow isn't that great.



compare it to bitcoin



this could means ETH ETF is not that popular..

on the other hand really hoping ETH to go back up again, I'm sure any other LST staker out there hoping the same . recent TGE of EIGEN isn't enough to justify the loss we endured from this dumping.

by speculating on a risky investment, I don't think dividends will cut it, you will probably make double of your money after few decades relying on dividend alone (without accounting capital growth of course), and that if the company you were investing not just underperforming and went into bankruptcy within a decade.

never hold that much amount of money myself but maybe if you're so fixated with stock investing in company like NVIDIA, AMD or something like that but wait until the hype about these stocks fades first.

or maybe you can take the easiest way of just holding BTC all the way up to $100k or more, essentially doubling your money, if you're brave enough to take the risk of course.

We can expect nothing meaningful to be happening to the development of doge even decades into the future because I think people just like it the way it is, even without smart contract capability it's already good enough.

on the other hand, the fact that doge is frequently used as a payment method in platform like bitpay hugely because adoption of doge coin as a payment has been there for a long time already.
it's cheap and quite low in volatility compared to other alts because decentralized holders and huge market cap which means another layer of difficulty for any manipulator to manipulate the market and make the asset volatile.

overall, it's still a meme coin, and the capability of being used as a payment I think is not something that's new, any coin, including memes, already have built-in capability to be used as a payment, it just depends on the parties involved in the transaction whether they accept it or not.

trust me, a rip off meme coin will just fail, maybe they can get some good market cap temporarily but eventually anyone interested enough to put their money into these rip off meme coin are actually just try to ride the hype train nothing more.

I've lost count how many doge and pepe rip off out in the market that now vanished into the void.

same thing with this meme you mentioned, although it might seem they offered whatever it is any gimmick that they offer to look as if they deserve place in the market or legitimate, but honestly the project itself just trying to ride the hype train, the fact that it used name pepe because it want to mimic the achievement that pepe as a meme coin has made.

truth is, recently the meme that could reach hundred million dollars market capitalization are unique meme such as : moodeng, neiro, and so on.

never once I see a clone could be as successful as the OG.

as long as in october BTC sentiment is good ETH could also go up maybe surpassing $3500, but the thing is, when BTC reached new ATH, ETH apparently failed touching its previous ATH, this is a sign that the buying pressure is weak for ETH.
so maybe this time, ETH will also lag behind in term of performance.



one of my speculation is that, the altcoin scene's flow of capital is split between ETH and Solana making ETH's performance lags behind because good share of ETH holder has shifted to solana recently. so my bet would be around $3800 if BTC is getting into the level of $70k again.

maybe it's because the fact that LST platform APR is interesting enough it could attract TVL and in turn making ETH price rise, which I don't think a good enough reason for it to be able to surpass BTC either in my opinion.

ETH is still considered just an altcoin, financial institutions are still heavily investing in BTC disregarding ETH because bitcoin pictured as more reliable, more liquid, and more suitable for investing with big money unlike ETH.
moreover BTC don't have the burden of the founder dumping the coin all the way to the bottom so BTC still the most logical choice.

as long as things still like this, I doubt any coin out there could even take over BTC position. even with their LST with billions dollar worth of ETH locked in the platform.

well, real estate transaction is no joke, sometime problem in legality can arise, so people will try their hardest to mitigate any potential of problem and one of them is just to convert crypto to fiat because the court will see the transaction as more legitimate than using crypto which isn't that widely used.

it's just perception in general and probably the regulation still lags behind in recognizing other legal tender, some country may not consider bitcoin as legal tender as well but instead just a commodity.

therefore the merchant are not interested in accepting BTC because it's not that promising to increase sales and cater to wider audience as of now, but in the future where everything digitalized and crypto becoming the norm, as common as fiat, who knows maybe things will change.

$EIGEN just enabled transfer functionality right now and I think with its billion dollar worth of TVL might actually hit $1B at peak.

but moving forward, I think LST will only benefit the rich guy, the one with thousands of ETH, since it's heavily APR dependant on getting the profit, same with LIDO, but most of these LST wrapped ETH token are priced above ordinary ETH coin.
I wonder if the additional value added to these wrapped ETH actually seems that valuable in the eyes of the market, so far I've been doing LIDO and EIGEN, but never truly got interested in their APR, only trying to get profit off various projects that utilizes EIGEN's protocol. the APR is not that interesting if i'm being honest.

Whenever there's freebies people will always flock, that is the rule, the airdrop that actually make so much this bullrun around are the airdrop with undisclosed requirement that caught majority of people off guard, $ZK with their liquidity provision as the most important multiplier, and EIGEN with their equal distribution to all the participant limiting the whales from getting all the allocation.

but aside from that, TON hype is fading, less and less liquidity going into TON project, HMSTR and CATI don't get that massive rally that NOT is getting, much the same is DOGS, the pattern shows and we're probably at the late stage of TON hype, so expect things to get worse from here.

Arsenal vs PSG is a hard game to predict. The odds above favored Arsenal to win the game. But they have somewhat had a terrible performance in European competition. I remember when they lost to Sporting CP in the 22/23 Europa League. A year later, Bayern Munich also beat them.

I'd rather trust PSG for the upcoming game instead of them, though the chance of losing is bigger. They are very inconsistent in European competition. The most likely outcome is they are gonna take points from PSG with a narrow score or they lose it.

They can't fire Ten Hag because they should have paid £17.5m compensation to him. I think that's why they chose to wait for a positive result. Instead of sacking him, and recruit a new caretaker until the season's end. It's a double-edged sword for them.

My numbers above are according to the latest report here.

It's not only Atletico fans. Their coach, Simeone, blamed Courtois for being provocative in that game. But he doesn't care about the fans' chants mocking Courtois. He's been feeding his team fans with a bad mentality. They totally showed the dark side of football in that game. And i think they should be ashamed.

As for the game, Real Madrid played well, creating several chances. But their poor finishing cost them the win. I was also questioning their coach, Ancelotti. He subbed in some defenders for his attackers.
It's a terrible decision by him. His garbage subs made us lose two points.

imagining working just to buy latest phone in the next cycle just feels exhausting, why did people even do this . it'll be endless cycle of companies pumping out new version because company's sole main revenue that made up big chunk of their company earning is pumping out new model and certainly, they will milk it as much as they can.

I liked back then when there's this idea of modular phone where people could just swap components and call it a day, I'm sure it can help reduce e-waste by significant amount compared to companies just pumping out new model every quarters of the year.
unfortunately, this project was cancelled maybe because it doesn't bring enough profit for it to sustain.

obvious gesture that he'll focus on other thing to comply, not that he need to go back at the forefront of binance anyway, man could live his dream already with that much of money on his wallet.
as for binance, I think the exchange itself was never created to only center around CZ's decision, the fact that binance also acquire smaller exchange in various countries also speaks a lot.

moving on I'd expect new CEO to take the spotlight, although so far there has been no strong decision taken and instead just follow binance's routine of investing to some smaller projects here and there and occasionally listing trending coins.

too much insider trading out there that are almost indistinguishable to real trade, therefore as you said, we don't know if it's a thing.

however lately, the moo deng meme coin said to have a guy turned their $800 to few millions according to the arkham intelligence tweets.



which might be a good little proof that such occasional thing still exist, but even then we don't know if it's just insider trading doing the buy up at early phase or genuine early meme coin buyer, but here's the catch, if this guy cashed out his whole profit, the market will be destroyed since the market don't have that much liquidity to endure such big dump.

Ipswich can't be underrated this season. They're well coached and very good at neutralising quality teams. And i think they will keep performing at the current rate till the end of the season. They seriously built their club to ensure they stay for so long in the EPL. They seriously wanna always be a part of EPL.

For the game, i don't even think either of the teams, Ipswich and Aston Villa, are equal in this game. Villa has top table attackers, while Ipswich was only relying upon their luck. But their defense looked equally. However, Aston villa is leading the game now with two goals, but their position is not yet safe. Ipswich was often giving a surprise to their opponent, and i hope they won't make it. This is because i have a bet on Villa.

Yamal played non-stop. He looked so tired in their last game against Villarreal and Getafe. He could potentially be injured if his coach, Flick, were not resting him. A very high-risk decision should be taken. This is to ensure he won't be injured and miss the whole season. It will be even worse if he will out till the end of season due to injury.

It was a hard game for City. Their opponent, Newcastle, played dirty in this game. Their opponent put everyone behind the ball. They had no clue how to break through the defense of their opponent (as per the picture above). They looked blunt and unbalanced without their best players, De Bruyne and Rodri.

They lose their idea and creativity. They have no alternative plan to cope with a 10-man low block used by their opponent. They should have tried to figure it out, or they will always miss the points. I expect many of their opponents will always do low block against them.

For me, it's not an entertaining game to watch. It is full of emotion and fouls.

the only realistic way to make fair distribution I think is by giving part of allocation for linear distribution and the other for equal distribution for the smaller shrimp, even then the bigger whale will complain because they deserved more and this act benefits the people who contributed less and the people who contributed enough to put them at the position of middle ranked contributor will also complain of having same reward as people who contributed less.

in short, there's just no way to please everyone so doing so is just wasting energy and time, moreover there will always be people who think they deserve more from small contribution. it's just how it is with anything related to distribution of wealth.
