61  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price is going to touch all time highs on: April 22, 2024, 08:02:37 PM
Bitcoin price has already touched 69000 thousand dollars, which is the highest price of 2021. So how reasonable do you think it is that the price of bitcoin will touch 70k dollar again if it takes another step forward?
Bitcoin is just a few hundred dollars ($800) before it reaches $70k. I can give it a few days before it reaches $70k but I cannot tell whether it will be possible before then or if we are to wait much further for it. What I am sure is that $70k is a minor price that bitcoin must have crossed for this year. I am looking forward to a higher price of $150k that bitcoin will cross before the end of this year.

Unlike the previous bitcoin halving, when the price of bitcoin was far far away from its all-time high, this time bitcoin has already reached its all-time high before the halving.

You may call this a demand from the ETF or whatever, but one thing is that we are sure to see the surge in bitcoin prices making new All time highs and the top of the bull market will be very bullish and beyond imagination.


The higher the price of Bitcoin rises, the more new records will be created, after which the price of Bitcoin will certainly reach higher receptions. 
73k dollar
 74k dollar
 75k dollar
76k dollar....
 80k dollar...
 90k dollar....
100k dollar
 From here I can see new records being set as progress continues, and six figure prices being touched.


Many people thought that bitcoin should have reached 100,000$ in the last bull season but due to the pandemic the markets were slow and investors hesitated to invest in risky assets. This time we can easily see bitcoin above 250,000$ and beyond.

I hope the Pakistan women's team is going to perform better and be able to win in the next match. It is probably not going to mean much. In the last match, they were able to perform pretty decently. It was bad luck and also some bad performance along with that which made them lose the last match. I hope they will be able to win the next match and at least salvage something.

Tomorrow is the third and the last match between West Indies women and Pakistan women. After this, the T20 series will come to an end which we are likely to see at Karachi.
The city with the name of Karachi is hosting back to back 8 matches in this and till now 6 matches remain to be hosted but after today’s match, there are only 5 matches left which are T20Is. I don’t think so that Pakistan women will win  any match in this series but let’s wait for the match because sometimes a lower performer team can perform better than the stronger team. 
Tomorrow's match is in the row, I think the West Indies women's team could win it and then they would like to whitewash the ODI series.

Royal Challengers Bangalore just can't seem to break their bad luck streak. Once again, they lost to Kolkata Knight Riders by just 1 run. It's really disheartening. They came so close to their second victory of this season but fell short. Royal Challengers Bangalore put up a good fight and deserved to win though.
It's the same story every year for Royal Challengers Bangalore, they collapse when it matters most.
Despite that, it was entertaining to watch. I enjoyed it.

Yesterday was a match in IPL that Royal Challengers Bangalore lost but we have seen that at yesterday’s match, there was no justice with Virat Kohli and Royal Challengers Bengaluru.




You can clearly see that it is no ball but the umpire didn’t give it even though he also takes the review but still, the umpire didn't take a side of justice. I don’t know why BCCI didn’t take any action on it. It seems like not a big cricket event. Such mistakes usually happen only in domestic cricket and not in big events like IPL. I do not say that Royal Challengers Bangalore lost because of this event, but still, it is a lot talked about on social media and by the RCB fans.

Really dude I also feel that West Indies women sqaud is more powerful squad as compare to Pakistan Women squad according to first clash performance. West Indies women displayed such a beautiful performance in first match with huge difference of scores. Now again in second fight total of three, West indies women sqaud against highly possibility to get a victory in this match because fewer scores remain for achieve with lots of batter wickets and deliveries. At this moment, both Aaliyah Alleyne and Chinelle Henry are playing in crease as a batter and both these batters need 18 scores off 23 deliveries. This victory is so easy and simple for West indies women sqaud and by this victory, West Indies Women squad lead this competition with two victories. Shemaine Campbelle and Stafanie Taylor both displayed very impressive performance and build strong batting partnership with each other and achieve much scores of Pakistan women squad defeating target.

Today’s match was such a bad day for the Pakistan women's team and mainly for Nida Dar because once again she got a chance to play as captain but she could not do good captaincy that is why when Bishma Maroof came then she did captaincy once again.

Nida Dar cannot become captain again in any other series because if her team could have won these two matches then maybe there is a chance for her to become captain. She was playing well but I think her playing 11 is not as well as it should be or she deserves. Only Sidra Ameen and Bishma Maroof did some good batting where they scored 50 and 65 runs respectively. Both of them could not match the inning from Stafanie Taylor who made 73 runs while chasing the target for the West Indies team.

It's no surprise that eSports betting are getting popular now, especially for online games which now have a million dollar winning prize. I do place bets in eSports leagues for more than a year now and there's really a lot of professional gamers in different game leagues. Though there's only few games are known such as Dota 2, CS:GO, Valorant but I've seen there are some other eSports like Mortal Kombat, Rocket League, etc. that was also available but was not that popular to gamblers.

I do not participate much in the esports betting as I have more interest in other real sports and not in this eSports but I remember that esports betting was most popular during the pandemic when we had no other sports. At that time, many people came to know about esports betting and from that time, we see a big volume in them.

One more thing is that you sometimes find good odds in eSports and they are worth taking the risk. Unlike other sports where bookies knows who is the clear favortie, here the betting sites sometimes aren't sure about them and therefore one can find some really good odds.

Yeah Aamir come back very strongly. His performance in the PSL was not good but he still lucky to get an opportunity in international match and he proved that he has still potential to play for his team. Now he need some consistency to show good performance in the remaining matches to book his seat for T20 world up.

Shadab Khan also did very good bowling as you can see he took 2 wickets and in the first wicket there was the hand of Naseem Shah behind Shadab Khan which I will explain to you.

When Shadab Khan released the ball then the batsmen hit on the down leg side where Naseem Shah was present and the ball height was too low even if Naseem hit the dive still he could not pick up the catch but he was a genius and he presented in his location and lies down on that location which cause of direct ball to his hands and then Shadab Khan picked his first wicket.
67  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: April 21, 2024, 09:22:22 AM
Yes you are right that was very exciting match and Pakistan won this match easily. And all the credit goes to the Pakistani bowlers who bowled really well.

Abrar Ahmed played very amazingly at yesterday’s match. We can relate to this after seeing Abrar Ahmed's performances. He picked two wickets in the same over. He did the 6th over in which he didn’t pick any wicket but in the second over that done by him which was the 8th over overall in the match and in the first ball of that over he picked the wicket.
Then after dot a ball he picked once more wicket at the same over. In that over, he gave out to MS Chapman and JDS Neesham, these wickets were such a huge loss for the New Zealand team and they were starting to hate Abrar Ahmed for sure.

Pak vs New Zealand Second T20I

My prediction for second T20I went true, New Zealand team was not able to play there full 20 overs rather they were all out in 18.1 overs. Pakistan need 91 runs to win this T20I. This is not full strength New Zealand squad because there main players prefer to play IPL over this series. Pakistan should also have given chance to there new players in this series but they are playing with there main players. Pakistan are so far favourite to win this game.
In today's 2nd game of series New Zealand made only 90 runs for all out. Excellent bowling by Pakistan bowlers the dominant on new Zealand batsman Shaheen Afridi takes 3 wickets while its 1st T20 match for Muhammad Amir after back from retirement after 4 years. Pakistan easily chased down the target 92/3 brilliant batting by Muhammad Rizwan with 45 runs single handedly won the match the main benefit for team Pakistan on their home is that New Zealand playing with his B team. Their main players are playing ipl further pakistan won this match by 7 wickets in Pindi.

Does this mean that all the matches in the series will be one-sided as the New Zealand main players aren't available because of the IPL  Huh On the other hand, Pakistan is playing with its full strength as they do not participate in the IPL.

I do not think this is a wise approach by the New Zealand to send the B team for this important tour. Also, we know that during the IPL, no other international matches take place so why this series is scheduled in this time ? It could have been delayed so that the New Zealand could come with its A team and we could watch competitive matches.

With this performance by the NZ, we can only say that Pakistan will sweep the series 4-0. The first match was abandoned due to rain otherwise it can be 5-0 too.
Here I believe both boards done mistakes but still I will blame PCB more for this all because they have never been well organized and having anything which give them some solid favor if we have New Zealand B team then surely they also needed to allow their youngsters for this series, but they are going with full strength which is not helping them in any way.
First match was abandoned due to rain and second match we have New Zealand bundled out for 90 runs and Pakistan won by 7 wickets which is good here if anyone can explain just waste of sources and time as well if they bring two Pakistani teams and have match surely this could be more interesting than this match which is having no entertainment or anything interested for the fans who were waiting for long time to have some good cricket.

Not only PCB is at fault in this case but also it creates a risk for their team and reputation. Let's suppose if the New Zealand B team is able to win a match or two, it will create a further bad impression on the Pakistan team that they lost to a B category team despite being playing with the full force.

Also, if they whitewash the series, still no one will give credit to them because everyone knows the weakness of the opponents and New Zealand board can always make any excuse in press conferences, print and electronic media that they lost because they did not have their main players free for this series. This makes the Pakistan victory meaningless.

The 36th match of Indian Premier League will start today, the team of Kolkata Knight Riders vs Royal Challengers Bangalore will participate in this game today. In today's game there is a huge difference between the two teams Kolkata Knight Riders team is occupying the third position in the points table, and Royal Challengers Bangalore team is in the 10th position in the points table which is at the bottom of the points table. But in today's game I will definitely support Kolkata Knight Riders team and the chances of winning are very high.
post link
In Royal Challenger Bangalore vs Kolkata Knight Riders match today, the difference between the two teams is definitely more because of the points, but Royal Challenger Bengal is quite a good team but they are not able to prove their worth in this IPL because they are at the bottom of the points table. Only for king virat kohli i support royal challenger bangalore but the team is not giving good performance this season the way they are playing lost every match so far but let's see how they will perform in today's match against kolkata knight riders. The team of Kolkata Knight Riders has been performing very well, so in today's match, Kolkata Knight Riders will definitely want to win against Royal Challenger, on the other hand, maybe Bangalore will want to get their first win in Royal Challenger. Now let's see which team can win the match by performing well on the field.

There is no match between these two teams and therefore i also expect that Kolkata Knight Riders will win this match with a big margin. Though Royal Challengers Bengaluru may be out of the tournament (they have won only one match in their seven matches played) , this match is utmost import for the Kolkata Knight Riders to get the two points and level with Sunrisers Hyderabad who already have 10 points.

After this win (if they win), Sunrisers Hyderabad and Kolkata Knight Riders will be equal with two points but since the NRR for KKR is better at the moment, the Kolkata Knight Riders can move up the position no. 2 on the points table.

I hope KKR and Shreyas Iyer (their captain) take this match seriously, not only win the match but win it by big margin so that they further strengthen their run rate.

71  Economy / Gambling / Re: Why not create a Gambling platform on Market narrative? on: April 20, 2024, 07:47:10 PM
Then, why not create a platform for predicting the performance of any cryptocurrency or a platform for predicting future trends in the market or both?

What are your thoughts on this?

There are two things to note here. First, predicting the performance of the cryptocurrency is same like predicting it whether will pump or dump or the price of that cryptocurrency. This is already handled in a much better way in the future trading market where we take long or short position on any cryptocurrecny. Also, there are platforms like freebitcoin where we can bet on the monthly price of bitcoin and Ethereum.

Secondly, if you say to predict the future trends whether the next hype will be of defi coin, meme coins, gaming coins or AI coins etc, then there is no definite answer to it and most of the time one or more categories are in trend so it is difficult to select a winner for such bets.
72  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Paying $25 To Anyone That Opens A stake.us Account For Me on: April 20, 2024, 06:47:31 PM
I’m in Canada but I want to play on stake us crypto casino. Paying anyone who opens an account for me $25.

My question is that why would you want to use the US platform to gamble ? Does Stake does not allow you to make account in Canada ?
What is the advantage of the US account for which you are even willing to pay ?

I think you need to move your thread to Services. There will be people accepting this offer actually as long as they are willing to risk and $25 is just too small.

It's just not recommended to submit your data for someone else account though, because we just don't know what OP did in the past that Stake is not allowing him. Hem must be banned already. You will also be affected if he does something crazy again in your name.

Even if he is willing to give more money, it iis not recommended to create account for someone else when you will be doing the KYC with your documents. If that account is misused, all the legal actions will be taken against the person who have done the KYC against that account. It is not worth taking the risk.
73  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: No gambling today due to bitcoin high transaction fee. on: April 20, 2024, 03:52:00 PM
This high fee is probably due to the 4th halving that was completed. I haven't seen this type of transaction fee this hight.

If you look at https://mempool.emzy.de/, the current transaction fee is  over $50 but in the past few hours it was over $100... So if you are a gambler who doesn't gamble that much like your range is only $10 to $100, it's impossible you will choose to gamble today with that very high fees.

This is only for gamblers who use bitcoin as the payment method, how is going today? Who among us here can still afford to gamble?

Some people already have Bitcoin on their gambling accounts and therefore they do not need to transfer the Bitcoin to the sites and thus this high fee is irrelevant for them and they can continue gambling with Bitcoin. However, if they withdraw today, they will have to pay a high withdrawal fee, so they can postpone withdrawal for a few days.

Also, I would like to know how many percentages of gamblers, gamble with Bitcoin and what percentage uses the altcoin for gambling. Maybe I will start a poll for that in a separate thread but as per the discussion here on different threads, I believe that most people gamble using altcoins as they are cheap in transactions and also have fast tx speed.
74  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Mempool Observer Topic on: April 20, 2024, 06:13:38 AM

To be honest, i never seen such high fees at mempool before, over a 1000Sats/vbyte  Huh
At first thought that after the halving some miners may be shut down, resulting in the backlog of the transaction but later i found out it was because of Runes, this fee spike.



Miners must be enjoying this while the rest of us are just waiting for the dust to settle.  Sad

75  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Anyone +18 Play Gamble? on: April 19, 2024, 09:59:14 PM
Does gambling needs experience or anyone +18, even the inexperienced one can also play? Though playing gamble has a limited age grade or age bracket and the accepted is from  +18 years and there are some casinos hall at the door post, it is written clearly that it is only people of +18 can play. But what about the inexperienced ones, are they allowed to play gamble as well? Or they are also restricted to have the fun? In my observation, there are two elements to participate in gambling.

Well, on paper, it is required that you are an adult and have certain age limits before you can gamble but I have seen this is by passed by many casinos especially those who are operating online. The only way to check the age is from the KYC and many online casinos will allow you to gamble without the KYC. So there is no way to know if the person on the other side is a minor or an adult  Huh
Also, some casinos will ask for the KYC on withdrawal only, so there also minors can easily gamble though they won't be allowed to withdraw money unless they do the KYC (maybe get help from their elder brother or parents to do the KYC on their behalf).

One, you must above 18 years in my country and secondly you must have an experience to play, so I want to know if inexperienced people can also play gamble.

I think that none of the gambling sites (online or physical) will restrict you even if you do not have any experience playing. Yes, the gambling site can check that you are 18+ through KYC or physically showing the ID card with your date of birth written on the card but there is no way to know if the person is an experienced gambler or a newbie.
76  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How does the game of luck in gambling really works? on: April 19, 2024, 09:48:36 PM
He went silent at me for over 10mins and finally, it was the casino game tha he was busy playing.
The next thing he said to me was... Mate, let's roll out to the mall, I am taking charge of your bills tonight.
It was like a joke and we both went shopping and he paid $800 of my bills.
Guess what fellas, he said he won $13,980 in his casino bet while I was in his house. He claimed it was by my grace of goodwills and positive energy that attracted him that luck to win so, he don't mind having me 10% of that winning because he can't remember the last time he won a bet.

I don't really believe this dude because such grace has not even worked for me although some of my physical trader friends sometimes says they have more customers anytime I comes around their trading centres and they love having me around.

Does this really happen a reality or it is just some sorts of mental reasoning fellas?

When I read this story twice or thrice I came to know that the main thing in this was he was silent for sometime and then he started gambling. This makes me think that he might be a religious person who could have prayed to god for help, believed in himself and then with confidence he played and won a good amount.

But this does not mean that he overcome luck or this formula can be done by him or anyone and there will always be a win. There are so many players who remain silent before and during the game but the luck will not favor them. So I would still take this as a coincidence.

By the way, ask your friend that does he always wins when he gambles. I guess the answer will be "No" and it will prove that we never know when luck can change our game  Smiley

Chennai Super Kings is a reputed team but their performance today was not satisfactory. Their batsmen performed poorly from the start which had a big impact on the team. They couldn't have made the score longer if Dhoni wasn't batting at a strike rate of 300. Moreover Ravindra Jadeja has done the most for the team and these two batsmen remain unbeaten. If some players of Chennai Super Kings could have made runs from the start along with Ravindra Jadeja and Dhoni giving their maximum to the team then it would not have been so easy to beat Chennai Super Kings in this match. However, both the batting and bowling of Lucknow Super Giants were commendable. They were very confident in batting from the beginning. A great partnership between Quinton de Kock and KL Rahul was one of the reasons for Lucknow Super Giants victory. They batted very efficiently in the power play and the next few overs.

I think we should also give credit to Lucknow Super Giants who really took this match to their level best and turned out to be a much more mature and better team on the ground. KL Rahul and his team showed the maturity in the batting line up which was lagging in Chennai Super Kings teams.

I wonder why MS Dhoni do not come up the order as the CSK is missing someone like Dhoni in the top order who can not only survive on the wicket but make quick runs too so that the pressure is lifted from other batsmen of the team.

I hope no one miss to watch this innings from KL Rahul that made him not only win this match but also put him on the player of the match award. He made a brilliant 82 runs in 53 balls for his team.
78  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: April 19, 2024, 09:26:20 PM
I must say that bitcoin performance is really encouraging. In the past when there is any rumors of war, or any negative news bitcoin price were always heavily affected, but recently I have been observing that even with many uncertainties around the world, Missiles are being fired and Israel promising retaliation and all of that, bitcoin price haven't been badly affected like it usually do in the past. This is to prove to use that lots of investors are hodling instead of being paper hands like what we used to have in the past. This is telling us that there is a big price push that's coming very soon. A time is coming when we all will wish for bitcoin to get back to it's current price not but it will be too late.


All the negativity news about bitcoin and also about the geopolitical situation have the least negative effect on bitcoin effect on bitcoin in the long run. This is because people know that bitcoin is the safest investment that has no inflation. Even the Gold which has the highest market cap does possess some inflation.

For those people who think that 60-65K prices are higher for bitcoin, there will be a time when those people will be willing to buy bitcoin even about 100K bitcoin. Right now, if anyone can buy and hold as many bitcoins as possible, it will surely help him achieve financial independence in the near future.
79  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin pump|before halving on: April 18, 2024, 07:58:53 PM
Well, the market doesn't always go against the crowd if the crowd is reacting to what they think is going to happen which means that if the crowd thinks that the market will drop and they don't buy, the market will have a hard time going up because there won't be much demand and that many buyers. Similarly, if the crowd thinks that the market will go and they start buying, the market will go up because there will be more buyers than sellers in the market.

Leaving that aside, I would also say that I'm optimistic that the market will start recovering from this point onward and there won't be a further dip, but then again, we can only make predictions and the market can react differently based on any event or news that might circulate in the industry next.

The bitcoin market is near to its previous All time high of the last bull run and a few days before it even made a new all time high before the halving which is something unique and this never happened in any of the previous bull markets.

However, a 4000-5000$ bitcoin pump should not be classified as a bull market and similarly a few thousand dump is normall and should not be considered as a bearish market.

No matter if we are moving up or down, this will not be in a straight line and people will get excited or sad on every pump, dump or relief rally and all this trading stuff. In the long run, bitcoin will make a parabolic run sometimes at the end of this year or at the beginning of the next year.

Hi fellow Bitcoiners!

Me and my team are building blockchain based platform for investments in real world forests. Right now we are working on stablecoin implementation, however, I would like to ask you - would you be interested to buy forest backed security tokens with Bitcoin and if so would you prefer to receive dividends in Bitcoin over stablecoins? If you are interested further in the project, our website is https://www.upwood.io where you can read our whitepaper and sign up for waitlist.

As i understand this, the next hype in the crypto world is "Real World Assets." and therefore you are trying to build something similar prototype token and hppe that people are interested in the project and may offer for investments  Huh
Sounds a bit harsh, but this is the really where most people these days come up with an idea on how to hands on people's money without getting or developing anything worth investing.



Just tried to check your site where there is nothing but an idea of an "Investment Platfrom"  Huh
Why would anyone be interest in putting their money here.
