It was really fun to see many WSBK and MotoGP riders doing training at the Portimao Circuit in Portugal yesterday where there were also Valentino Rossi and Marc Marquez as well as Pecco Bagnaia and Toprak from WSBK, all of whom were doing important training before having a very good season. Because at the beginning of next month there will be an official test in Sepang to see what developments each manufacturer will get from MotoGP before this season starts.

I can also see some decline on the number of local businesses that accept Bitcoin on the Island but hopefully they're gonna restore what they have started there. Though I am not from that island but I would love to visit that place in the near future just to experience the life of living the whole stay with Bitcoin.
Actually, I also really want to experience something like that on an island that is already very famous for Bitcoin, but because where I live is very far from that island, I am prevented from visiting that island to be able to experience life there with Bitcoin. And I also hope that people there do not ignore their own local businesses even though they already know Bitcoin and can enjoy the benefits of Bitcoin in their own way. Because after all, local businesses that can provide profits for themselves must also continue to be run for their prosperity on the island.

Even if the market goes down it won't end up going up again there are many trends that most people initially dismiss. However, if you realize their true potential and are proven right bitcoin investment can earn you a fortune. We can expect the next bull run as the number of new users of cryptocurrencies hit record highs every time during the bull run. In 2024, the value of Bitcoin will fall, halving.
Maybe that's just your prediction, because I don't expect Bitcoin to fall by half this year. Moreover, this year there are factors that can cause the price of Bitcoin to increase, such as the recent halving and ETF approval which can create a breakthrough in the price of Bitcoin in the market. You can see for yourself today where the price of Bitcoin has risen again to more than $41K in the market, which means that Bitcoin price resistance this month really exists and happens often.
124  Economy / Speculation / Re: What are your expectations for the few weeks after the halving period? on: January 26, 2024, 11:28:35 AM
It seems that bitcoin price movements after the halving will follow the same cycle as the previous halving period, because there are several indicators that are identical to several factors in the current market review, so there is hope that it could potentially reach ATH with the same market movement tactics as the last ATH, I also expect that ATH or high recovery will start after 1 year of halving period.
Everyone can make predictions like that for Bitcoin's next ATH, but we also need to understand that changes to this can also happen to Bitcoin because everyone cannot clearly guarantee that Bitcoin's ATH will be the same as the previous one. Although there are factors that can influence Bitcoin and the market in terms of achieving this more quickly or in the same way as before, because if things can be the same as before, of course those who will benefit the most are investors with a lot of money or those who once bought and collected Bitcoin at a low price and still held it until the ATH occurred.

PSG against real socieded is clear and it is certain that PSG is favoured to win this match. in terms of experience in the champion league PSG is better and flashier than real socieded. as well as in terms of player and coach PSG is far above real socieded. so it can win easily against real socieded it's normal.
I think that's just easier for a lot of people to say at the moment because the game hasn't started yet, but the opposite could happen because in the Champions League usually all the teams can perform brilliantly without anyone realizing it. So it would be a big mistake if PSG underestimated any opponent in the Champions League, especially since Real Sociedad is a team that can sometimes break the concentration of any opponent they face in important matches.

After several days of seeing the launch of Valentino Rossi's Ducati satellite team which has brought sponsors from Indonesia, the team's colors and name have now changed to Pertamina Enduro VR46 Racing Team. However, what is even more special is that Valentino Rossi said he would go to Indonesia when the Mandalika race starts in the 2024 season.

Apart from that, another news that surprised me a little was about Andrea Iannone who has returned to WSBK racing on a Ducati Panigale motorbike. This can be seen from the test results at the Jerez circuit two days ago where he was in sixth place just below Stefan Bradl, so this will be quite possible to give rise to fiercer competition in the WSBK arena in the 2024 season because Toprak is no longer at Yamaha and Jonathan Rea will no longer be at Kawasaki for the 2024 season.
127  Economy / Economics / Re: Reasons for personal financial accountability? on: January 25, 2024, 03:58:29 PM
Inflation and wage growth of an individual plays very important role in someone's financial management. Let's assume a middle class salaried person with a family of three started working 10 years ago, by that time he could have lead decent life style with his salary but even after 10 years of working and increased salary too the standard of live is far below than how he lived 10 years back because the wage growth is stagnant all over the world while the inflation kept on surging no matter what leads to increase in the cost of living.

That's a comparison that is quite real in the lives of many people, even though each person doesn't know whether something like that also applies in other countries besides their own. Because what you say is very clearly proven in my country, so that those who still work with very ordinary salary standards without an increase can no longer enjoy life like they did ten years ago. Unless they have a side income to cover things that are not enough due to the impact of inflation that continues to occur now.

Now there are many people who no longer rely on their basic salary through routine work every day. So that almost everyone continues to use their time to work in different places, such as opening their own business in order to meet their living expenses and also to be able to save for the future even though everyone is still quite loyal to work in their old place where the salary is still quite standard considering their standard of living.

If you have been involved with Bitcoin for more than 10 years, then you have been involved with Bitcoin for a long time. So asking such question in your case is not reasonable at all.  Bitcoin ETF Approval It is not very effective to increase the price of Bitcoin. Why are you so broke don't you know bitcoin halving is not long. Bitcoin halving will start Bitcoin bull run in few months so why are you so impatient. Wait very soon you will see the new Bitcoin ATH. Bitcoin Excitement Days Are Not Over Bitcoin Excitement is coming soon.
Everyone's level of patience is different in any case, so this is still a reasonable thing to ask. Although what you say is also logical enough to be understood by people who have known Bitcoin for a long time and have been involved in it for a long time every year. I also think that at the moment a lot of people are waiting for the Bitcoin halving even though they were quite happy when they saw the approval of the Bitcoin ETF which in general has also caused a bit of turmoil in the crypto market with Bitcoin increasing temporarily

Since Mohammed salah will not be playing the match Arsenal has a better chance of wining the match because lately Arsenal seem to have realized there mistakes and they have been improving seriously, and also for Liverpool to have draw there match against Fulham I think Arsenal is going to win them.
I don't think that Liverpool is just a team that relies on one player like Mohammed Salah, even though Mohammed Salah is a pretty good and extraordinary player. But Liverpool is very aware that they basically have to rely on all the players they currently have because logically it would be impossible for Liverpool to get to the top position like now if they only relied on one player in any match. Everyone has seen how Liverpool can win matches without Mohammed Salah, which means that Liverpool are indeed good enough at the moment so they can still occupy the top position until now.

Even though the competition this season is very tight compared to last season, I am sure that the competition for the title this season will only be between Juventus and Inter Milan. I see these two teams performing consistently so far. Different from AC Milan. Yes, even though AC Milan is currently in 3rd place with a difference of 7 points from Juventus who are currently at the top of the standings, AC Milan's performance is inconsistent, they often lose important points when facing lower ranked clubs which they should be able to win easily by AC Milan. Therefore, I believe that the competition for the Italian League title this season will likely be contested by Juventus and Inter Milan until the final match of the competition.
This is quite visible at the moment, where only Juventus and Inter Milan will continue to make the fight for the Italian League title even fiercer. Meanwhile, AC Milan seems to have more potential to get third place in the standings if AC Milan does not change for the better during the remainder of this season in the Italian League. Everyone will also continue to enjoy how Inter Milan and Juventus play every important match in the Italian League for the title this season so other interesting predictions will definitely continue to emerge here.

PSG will lose, Real Sociedad use a team play strategy while PSG is only depend on Mbappe. It's easy to combat PSG's strategy, just sacrifice one player to give hard tackle to Mbappe, PSG will don't have any player who can score a goal.

PSG is a strong team during group stage, but become a mediocre team when it comes to knockout stage.
Real Sociedad could implement a strategy like that when they face PSG in the next match, but I don't think there is any need to give Mbappe a hard tackle. Because as long as Real Sociedad players are able to block and guard Mbappe well enough, PSG will also find it difficult to score goals by relying on other players, because there (PSG) only Mbappe is relied on for this, even though PSG could also use other strategies which are not I will fully expect Mbappe to score a goal in the match against Real Sociedad later.
132  Economy / Economics / Re: The savings problem on: January 23, 2024, 03:53:26 PM
That people are not able to save money is up to their inability.
The lack of discipline is predominant in many societies.

Some people save money but in crypto, in countries which have high inflation in cars, houses, land. Some even in shares.

People who have not been able to save are people who usually have a small income or an income that is only enough for their daily food costs. But basically those who have not been able to save will definitely have the intention to do so if they already have more ability through the income they earn and whereas those who save through crypto and shares are usually people who already have more income. So they can make adjustments between the funds they will consume daily and savings funds in any form.

Regarding lack of discipline, it seems like this is only owned by lazy people who don't want to manage their time properly enough so they will only try when they are hungry and really have no intention of achieving better development for themselves. So this is different from those who are unable to save but still have the intention to save and is also different from those who are able to save in crypto and shares, because the three are not the same category.

It seems to be heading too but it's not certain because the market hasn't shown a hard and deep crash. However, I think conditions like this also create boredom for market players who have bought before, as you also mean. Yes. At least we can learn from the market that it is still demand that causes prices to rise. In essence, currently fresh funds are talking.
Now the price of Bitcoin is below $40K, which means the price decline is quite large, although not so deep compared to the highest price reached this month. And things like this can certainly not only cause boredom for market players, but can also cause a bit of panic among market players who are just starting out. Meanwhile, for investors and old traders who are used to such conditions, of course they will see this as the best opportunity to buy again before the halving arrives.
134  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: January 23, 2024, 02:18:16 PM
I'm sure the group that owns Girona will invest more when they see this performance. They can continue as a team like Atletico Madrid for La Liga in the future. We are watching a great 2023-24 season performance from them. I hope Girona's performance continues. They add extraordinary excitement to La Liga. It's great that they beat Sevilla by 5 goals.
Girona's impressive performance this season has become a very real obstacle for other teams such as Atletico Madrid and Barcelona in terms of fighting for positions and titles this season. Because this not only makes La Liga more lively, but also makes competition even fiercer from every team who wants to secure first place and a position in the UCL zone. I am also quite impressed with Girona's performance this season because they are able to match the strength of other big teams such as Real Madrid and Barcelona this season.

Perhaps you are right and Man City could indeed soon take the top spot in the EPL... There was a similar situation last season when Arsenal were top of the standings and the gap was more than 10 points... At that time it was hard to believe that Man City would move them... I also think that now history may repeat itself...
History like this could indeed happen again with Manchester City, especially since currently the point gap between Manchester City and Liverpool is currently very close even though Manchester City is still one game behind Liverpool and other rivals. Now the battle for position in the top four zone is starting to look fierce, especially for three teams such as Manchester City, Arsenal and Aston Villa. Meanwhile, it is still possible for Tottenham to join in the struggle for position in the zone even though Tottenham are still three points behind Arsenal and Aston Villa.

Juventus and Inter have a big chance of winning the trophy this season. Even Inter just got the Super Cup trophy. This condition is of course very different from Milan, which has experienced 4 defeats this season. Even though the game is still long, and the opportunity is still there, I am more confident that this season is for Juventus.
It seems that many people are starting to believe that this season the Serie A trophy will belong to Juventus. But as long as Inter Milan is still consistent enough in winning matches by not making any mistakes in every remaining match by rotating players very well, of course Juventus will also find it difficult to get the Serie A trophy this season. Because if we look at the points, only the two of them have the potential to continue competing to win this season, while AC Milan is starting to fall behind even though they almost managed to secure the top three positions.
137  Economy / Economics / Re: The world's logic favours income makers, not the savers on: January 23, 2024, 09:12:43 AM
supports the source of income because it is taxed more than just saving. saving tax is small. while income tax is very high.
So all countries are certainly in favour of income earners and not in favour of savers only in terms of taxes.
I think every country will always care about its own citizens, regardless of whether they have more income or not. Because the state is obliged to look after its own citizens regardless of those who save or those who earn income, because state taxes have become an obligation for citizens to pay. Moreover, the money from the tax proceeds will be used for the development of the country itself as well as for assistance to citizens who still need a helping hand from the government.
138  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is the bull run begun ? on: January 22, 2024, 09:52:20 PM
with the current situation we should see a decline for now because the market has been rising for quite a long time, almost a full quarter.
and after that we will see the next market reaction based on news and other things that will always influence market conditions.
Today the decline in Bitcoin prices has been quite significant and has even been more than 4% even though the price itself is still around $40K. However, this is enough to be considered a fairly sharp decline even though the change in the price of Bitcoin itself is still not that significant due to today's price decline. But everyone can see that the market is back in the red today due to Bitcoin's drop of over four percent although we might still see a better bounce after this.
139  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: January 22, 2024, 09:07:30 PM
The final match is important for anyone who is ready to take all the risks, including having to get a red card. Napoli are now playing with 10 men after Giovanni Pablo Simeone received a second yellow card in the 60th minute.
Napoli continued to try to survive by taking advantage of opportunities when they could counterattack, but Inter Milan continued to attack Napoli's defense line when they had a superior number of players.
And Lauturo Martinez's goal brought Inter to victory with his goal just scored in the 90th minute.
Congratulations to Inter Milan for winning the Italian Super Cup this season and they will continue with other important tasks in the UCL and Serie A this season because there are still many strong rivals that Inter Milan must defeat in two different leagues this season. The goal in the 90th minute by Lauturo Martinez was the goal that brought Inter Milan to win the Super Cup trophy so all the Inter Milan players who worked together in that match deserve praise because their determination was very good for the team.

A team that I consider a favourite today may perform poorly after a while or my favourite player may change. Also, since I have personal freedom, I can keep any club I want on my favourite list. If a team is good I will definitely support it. I'm also not in favour of supporting a team emotionally while people enjoy the game and are there for entertainment. I think my own preferences may change over time. No team should be emotionally supported for entertainment or betting purposes.
I think everyone has their own goals and reasons for supporting any team, because there are also true fans who continue to desperately support one team without wanting to support another team even though the team they support is no better than their own rival team. But for bettors and entertainment seekers it will certainly be very different from true fans who are generally very fanatical about one team even though the conditions are different from last season to this season.
