1201  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Elon Musk won't save Doge or Bitcoin this time on: May 13, 2022, 07:58:31 PM
If I am not mistaking, Elon has done more harm than good to bitcoin. Yes, Elon once accepted bitcoin for his tesla company which made some cool wave in the media. But it didn't last long till Elon made a U-turn and withdrew bitcoin payment. He also made some defamatory statements against bitcoin which also affected bitcoin. So, Elon is not a friend of bitcoin.
If you think Elon Musk brings more damage to the cryptocurrency space then it is time to let go and not promote what he says. He has a huge social media platform and he has the ability to manipulate the market. From my understanding he accumulated a lot of coins before taking those positions about Tesla accepting BTCitcoin and made a ton of profit and then changed his position after booking the profit.


For Dodge, he keeps playing his hide and seek game with dodge. By the way, does bitcoin need a saviour?  Bitcoin is firm, what you are seeing in the market is the nature of crypto. It is part of crypto. It is an opportunity for more people to join the market.
To be frank we are in 2022 and we do not need any savior or influencer for BTCitcoin.
1202  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do Anyone Think Luna Will Recover? on: May 13, 2022, 06:38:25 PM
Because, Founder of Terra creator Terraform Labs, tweeted on Tuesday: “Close to announcing a recovery plan for $UST. And He Hangs tight On His Words.”

He added on Wednesday: “I understand the last 72 hours have been extremely tough on all of you – know that I am resolved to work with every one of you to weather this crisis, and we will build our way out of this.
I am not sure how they will be recovering from a situation like this. Their project plan was almost solid proof and the team was able to convince the investors and they had a lot of dedicated investors and a correction exposed their algorithm based stable currency.

Terra is trading at $0.0001137 and UST is trading at $0.1658 and it is an almost impossible task to make a recovery from this position.

He might not be a champ on paper, but he sure ain't the paper champ Smiley What I am trying to say, is that he has still some bargaining leverage, and in some regards is still considered the champ, or at least the top dog.
Tony Ferguson has become the gate keeper of the division and that is the only leverage he has right now.

I get what you are saying, but RDA's 40+ fight experience vs Makhachev's 20+ fights has to account for something, also the caliber of fighters he went up against (win or lose) as well as actually going to a decision with Khabib back in 2014. So Makhachev winning easily? He definitely would be a favorite, but I wouldn't really go for an automatic easy win. RDA is still somewhat relevant as a gatekeeper.
Islam Makhachev is the right opponent right now to face Charles Oliveira as the belt is vacant and i hope they will book that fight as i consider this as the best match up right now and i am curious to see whether Islam Makhachev can overcome the submission game of Charles Oliveira.

I feel the same hype when Khabib Nurmagomedov and Tony Ferguson were supposed to fight.

Big performance from Chennai, the players should realise such a big audience is behind and watching the match. Among this 97 runs, 15 runs were from extras. So what the team have scored is 82 runs. Within this score CSK tried the best to make it a win. The last hope of CSK to playoff came to an end
It was an impossible task to be in the play off even with an astounding win today but i expected Chennai to win the match but they disappointed big time with the bat. The top order was always giving them good start and this time they failed completely and Mumbai Indians played like the strong team they once were. I wish if there were runs on the board it would have been a great match.

BCCI don't want big powers like China to join in since that will take authority away from bcci. Cricket is decade old game and till date it's not included in Olympics nor there are any chances of its inclusion. We have to admit that cricket as a sports failed to fine its way outside South Asia and few other countries.
China does have a Cricket team but they do not give too much emphasis as they do not have a competitive team even though they won some matches against other Associate countries and they even participated in the 2010 Asian Games and they will be participating in the upcoming Asian Games which will be conducted this year and they do have T20 International status.

So i would like to know which invisible power you are talking about  Tongue.

After losing two wickets very fast, Delhi scored 71 runs in 3 overs. Their run rate is good enough. If it continues like this, Delhi may win. But Rishab Pant and Mitchel Mars must be at the crease for a long time. If the pair of these two batsmen grow bigger, the chances of Delhi winning will increase. Otherwise Chennai will win the match.
Delhi Capitals lost their 5th wicket and Moeen Ali is turning the match by picking 3 wickets. Rovman Powell and Axar Patel  is the crease and they still need 127 runs to win the match. I expect some big hits from Rovman Powell but other than that it is a really difficult task to win after loosing 5 wickets as the required run rate is climbing and the spinners are bowling well.

Edit:
Axar Patel is gone and their troubles continue in a crucial match.

Shahid Afridi is a religious type of person and his wife never appeared before camera. He is now liberal and allowed his daughters to appear before camera. I do agree that we must not talk about someone personal life openly regardless of how good or bad that person is. Shahid Afridi is in news these days for his stance againest Imran khan.
Shahid Afridi is looking at a career in politics and he knows he needs to throw grey on everyone and he is doing that to get some political mileage. The other day is saw him drilling Danish Kaneria for the comments he made. I am not too inclined on what he is doing in his private life and now with his entry into politics you will hear more absurd things from him and it is better not to discuss these things here  Wink.
1208  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Binance joins funding for Elon Musk's takeover of Twitter on: May 08, 2022, 11:14:49 AM
no one knows, whether that means Elon Musk and CZ are old friends or just business friends. But in the future this will benefit both parties equally having their own coins. Slowly BNB, Doge, Tesla will soon rise high but that will be how they both bring twitter to cryptocurrency change to make it more alive. Even if it's a business partner, at least there will be a binance name on twitter right?
Binance is not the only partner is raising the funds for the take over, Elon Musk is taking funds from multiple of investors including Larry Ellison and there are even reports that he is getting funds from Saudi Arabia and venture capital companies will be taking part in this deal and a total of over $7 Billion is raised till now as per reports and there will be more funds coming in.

Missed a few matches and Rajasthan Royals played well for the win, KKR is struggling with the bat and another pathetic performance when they wanted a win.

Virat Kohli once again went for a golden duck, he is creating some sort of record by getting dismissed for first ball ducks  Cheesy. The games he scored runs the strike rate was really bad and you can say that slow pace almost cost them the matches. Crucial match for both the teams and i think Sunrisers Hyderabad will come out on top.

Did we comment on Cerrone dropping out of the Lauzon fight? Here is a wild suggestion, maybe Cerrone should hang them up.
Donald Cerrone pulled out of the fight and there is no specific reason said why he pulled out at the last moment but i think he got to have one more farewell fight if he really wants to do that because he was the go to fighter whenever there was a short notice call and he always fought last moment match ups.

It is time for Maurício Rua to hang his gloves, he is well over 40 years and he is not that fast like he used to be and there is nothing for him to prove now.

Michael Chandler just produced the best front kick knockout in MMA history and this is the first time i am seeing someone knocking out Tony Ferguson and he was out cold for a very long time.

I am really impressed with Charles Oliveira and his submission skills is out of the world.

Full credits to Carla Esparza for winning her belt again because Rose Namajunas was afraid to engage and it was a boring fight. From winning the inaugural belt, she was considered as a fluke winner as she was destroyed when she first defended it and now she reclaimed that gold once again, which is awesome and showcase her determination.
1211  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: May 08, 2022, 07:23:26 AM
SRH and RCB
So far, SRH played 10 matches with 5 wins and 5 defeats with positive NRR whereas RCB played 11 matches with 6 wins and 5 losses but with negative NRR. So, I feel in today’s match with negative NRR, RCB has the least chance to win the game. With the negative NRR team, RCB has to put in more effort to win the game.
It is a really important match up for Sunrisers Hyderabad and Royal Challengers Bangalore, SRH have some injury concern as Natarajan and Washington Sundar might not play this match and Marco Jansen who bowled well against RCB is out of form as he leaked too many runs. Umran Malik is bowling at good pace but he is also leaking runs in some matches. So it is hard to predict who will win the match.
1212  Economy / Economics / Re: Standard of living on: May 07, 2022, 11:25:32 PM
So i would like to know what the standard of living is like in your country now compared to five years ago. Was there any sharp difference in the standard of living pre pandemic and now. If there is a great fall in the standard of living in your country, have there been any move by the government and employers of labor to alleviate the sufferings of people. People who live in Ukraine, if you don't mind, i think a lot of people would want to know what it is like there too since the war began
The sufferings of a common human being is the same globally irrespective of country because gas prices are rising, interest rates are rising and since gas prices are rising all the goods and services will increase in valuation, so it will be hard for everyone to meet their monthly budget. Basically the savings will be low as the expenditure will be high due to inflation.

People who are living in unrest and in a war, the situation will be pathetic to being with, people fleeing for their lives leaving all their assets they built till that time is not easy. It is better not to compare the global unrest along with the people facing war and misery.
1213  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: MMA Info and Predictions - Bellator, KSW, PFL, ONE... on: May 07, 2022, 11:07:47 PM
UFC is treating their fighters like shit, they don't allow them to have their own sponsors, or to fight with boxers if they want, and more fighters are now having courage to say that in public, like Tony Ferguson did few days ago, or Francis Ngannou before him.
It is true that the UFC fighters are not allowed to wear their own sponsors during the fight night but apart from that they can promote them at will,  Not heard what Tony Ferguson said about the payment but Francis Ngannou knows very well that if UFC let him go that he wont be getting the same payment anywhere else. He is dreaming about a boxing event against one of the greatest boxers in Tyson Fury and for that Dana White is not letting him do that because that will harm the UFC brand if he looks foolish boxing against Tyson Fury.

Why do you think some of the best fighters like Cris Cyborg left UFC and signed for Bellator, than you have Patricio Pitbull and arguably one of the best fighter and legend Fedor Emelianenko is in Bealltor and he never signed for UFC.
Overall UFC probably have more quality fighters, but many champions in other organizations can fight equally with champions from UFC.
Cris Cyborg left because she felt she is disrespected in the UFC. There is a reason Fedor Emelianenko did not sign with the UFC, his demands of co promotion with the UFC was not accepted by Dana White. I do accept that Bellator has some talented fighters and i would like to see a cross promotion mega event once a year which would be awesome
1214  Economy / Economics / Re: "...all of the bitcoin in the world for $25" on: May 07, 2022, 10:27:47 PM
Warren Buffet recently made a strong declaration that he wouldn't buy all of the bitcoin in the world for $25, and it gave us a better glimpse of how he really views cryptocurrency. He went on to say that Bitcoin "doesn't multiply" and "doesn't produce anything," which is true if you think about it, except what multiplies in BTC is its value. I wonder what would make Buffet change his perception of BTC. Or maybe he's just trying to influence the crypto market for a bargain buy.
This is not the first time Warren Buffet is talking about the cryptocurrency space in a negative shade and this wont be the last, he is trying his best for a while and still the price keeps on climbing. There is one aspect i accept, the price cannot go up all the time and if he is not interested in purchasing BTCitcoin that is his choice and that too coming from someone who made money speculating in the stock market makes me laugh Cheesy.

How can you explain such fortunate winning happening for real? It looks unlikely and unrealistic even for a Hollywood movie script!
Imagine the sequence of events needed in order to deliver the results that would perfectly fit the predictions of this impressive lucky gambler.

Actually, I guess luck purely can't explain this event, there must be something else! Or are these fake news?
I have seen some major parlay wins in the past decade and you could even see in the cryptocurrency gambling sites where users post their winning bets by playing huge parlay and these are pure luck. For a time period i used to play the same method but i was never lucky for a huge parlay like that, either you see a huge upset and everything comes crashing. So these are once in a lifetime golden opportunities and i wish i will be hit by luck and fortune like they do  Cheesy.

Is this a good portfolio in general and during bear market or do you think that 8 coins are too much and i should try to reduce the coins?
In the list you provided i might go with Polygon as the valuation i think is undervalued considering the use case of the project when other shitty projects are having a much better price valuation. Then the majority of my investment will definitely go the BTCitcoin during every major bear run and it will be a tradition moving forward for majority of the investors.
1217  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Price Potential to Drop in the $32k Area on: May 07, 2022, 08:52:37 PM
The cryptocurrency market has failed to live up to traders' expectations as the bitcoin price is still struggling to get back above $40k. Bitcoin's attempt to hold its price above $40k indicates the sluggish momentum of the crypto market. For almost a month now the bitcoin price is between $37k-$39k. Currently, the price of Bitcoin is trading at around $38k. If bitcoin fails to maintain its $38k price range, it could drop to $32k in the near term.
I like to think the other way around, the traders had high expectations about the market and even i was surprised when the market gained momentum and touched an all time high valuation of $68k which i did not anticipate before the bull run started. I am still expecting the market to go down below $30k and it would be great so that we will be able to purchase something for the next bull run which i am only expecting after the next halving Wink.

What would happen if Elon Musk decided to sell his Bitcoin? What will be its economic impact on the price of Bitcoin?
From what i understand, Elon Musk sold billions worth of BTCitcoin last year itself and we did not see any major correction like the hype you think he is having. He recently purchased Twitter for a whooping $44 billion and it is normal that he will be looking for funds and i have no clue how much he is holding in cryptocurrency but i wont be surprised if he sells all his cryptocurrency right now Cheesy.

Did you know that the speculation about the price going down is nothing but a design or plan of the whales to influence the mentality of the traders to sell and under, then they are ready to welcome the low price? What if this scheme was deliberately designed by a pope who still wants to get a big bonus. Nothing is impossible, right?
It is not always the truth, we are not the same market we once were a few years back. Now majority of the global economic situation is affecting the cryptocurrency market as well which means the big investors are institutional investors who also invest in other financial markets and when there is a negative news they will hedge one against the other and hence we saw a major correction in the past two days.

KKR had a good chance of making this playoff calculation more interesting.

But they are literally surrendering tonight and in no mood of fighting be it ball or bat. 26/4 so hard to see them winning this match.

BTW MI is officially out from this season, they should start their advance preparation for the next season and hope Archer is fully fit.
A crucial game and Kolkata Knight Riders surrendered completely, just saw some powerful hitting from Andre Russell which was missing for a few matches and the rest of the batsman struggled to score runs. The over Shivam Mavi bowled changed the match upside down where he conceded 5 sixes and from that they never recovered and now official out of the tournament.
