361  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Eight reasons why BTC will Fail. Thoughts? on: January 07, 2024, 09:52:38 PM
From the first stanza I read when you said you like btc but seeing from the title by saying btc will fail there is actually a conflict in you that you have to solve mate Smiley
Regardless of the series of reasons you give when saying btc will fail the fact is that until now btc is still leading to a very good situation and even continues to increase from year to year as time goes by.
I don't want to argue the points you gave as reasons in this case but in the end I will still see the fact that until now bitcoin is still on a very good path and is still very worthy to be used as an investment for myself so I will remain in bitcoin because of that.
If in the end in the future there are indeed several events including the failure that you discussed, I don't think it matters because in the end everything that smells of technology will definitely have a replacement over time and what is now very good may in the future be replaced by something new so as long as I can still be in btc and btc is still something that is feasible for me at this time then I will still be there.

I will be happy for Timo Werner if he returns to the Premier League because he is not getting enough playing time at the German side Leipzig, and Tottenham will need all the support they need in the front line since they sold their main striker Kane during the summer transfer before the beginning of the season. Tottenham will also be happy to have him because of his Premier League experience. He will not like some of the players they signed who have yet to adapt to the Premier League style of play completely; he will continue his form in the Premier League.
I think this could also be a dilemma because after all, looking at Timo Werner's current condition and track record I think we know that bringing him is a gamble.

The reason is quite simple because we know he has been in the EPL and has failed to make his previously shining career fade again and he returned to the Bundesliga also did not make his career come back to life because he only decorated the bench at Leipzig. But it is indeed a good strategy if this is only a loan because in the end this will not make Spurs too lose if he cannot prove himself again in the EPL.
This could be a proving ground for Werner and could also be a graveyard for his career because if he fails then indeed he will be very difficult to return and could even make his career even worse.

Roma vs Atalanta

This will be an interesting match because after all, by looking at the current situation, the possibility of this match going very tough is still very large.
Both are in the same situation in terms of performance and their strength is actually quite comparable in my opinion even though until now in terms of the quality of players maybe Roma is still superior because it is filled with several players who have big names like Dybala, Lukaku or Paredes but in terms of performance their strength remains the same and still has the possibility to win between each other.

Roma have greater hopes because with them playing at the Stadio Olimpico at least this adds strength to them from supporters who must have filled the stands but Atalanta also cannot be underestimated especially in the last few matches they have quite better results if compared with Roma.

I think that Arsenal will not fight in this match against Liverpool... Liverpool have good results and they can play free football because they don't have problems in attack and defence... But Arsenal have a lot of problems, which can be seen from their poor games... This match is not important for anyone, but Arsenal already lost such matches to save their strength... Remember the match against West Ham...
Now the first half has started and looking at the line-up that occurred in this match, I was actually quite surprised with what they played in this match because they almost lowered most of their core players for the match that occurred in round 3 today.
Even though the match in this competition is not too important but it seems like they are aware that this is not just about competition but there is a prestige that must be maintained considering this is a big match.

20 minutes of running time is now Arsenal who are more in control even though some of the kicks they try to do still miss the on Target but overall in these 20 minutes of possession and opportunities Arsenal dominate.

Talking about Manchester City's problems in the Champions League, I don't think they will have any problems because even though KDB was not there before, their dominance was maintained even we can see where in the group phase they can get perfect results with 6 wins without losing in the group phase which proves that their dominance is unstoppable even without the presence of KDB in the squad.

Now the Round of 16 we just need to wait for that and KDB and Haaland will definitely return to them especially the opponent is only Copenhagen which although they are quite troublesome but in terms of strength and experience of course Manchester City is better for now so I am quite confident in the strength that Manchester City has.
Indeed, so far Man City in the UCL League has not had any significant problems without the presence of KDB, they can still dominate during the group phase and even later in the round of 16 against Copenhagen, this is because Man City have not met an opponent who is equal to them. It cannot be taken lightly, but in terms of quality, Man City players will easily win this round of 16 match, both in the first leg and the second leg.

Man City really needs KDB's presence to catch up in the domestic league and UCL league. because Halland and KDB both need it, they complement each other, with Halland being very good at completing goals in scoring goals with the help of KDB who is very smart in providing passes which makes Man City look as if they are only playing with two people when attacking.
For the problem of domestic competition, they really need KDB on the field because after all, with the loss of KDB for a long time it makes their situation on the field erratic especially when we talk about the very high tension that makes Manchester City seem to lose their identity in the game that is done but now it can be passed because after all we see now KDB has recovered and allows it to be played immediately when the EPL reopens.

To face Copenhagen in the first leg actually this could have been held in an extreme way like they did last season against Leipzig where at that time there were no substitutions at all in the full 90 minutes for the first leg.
Pep can still do this by playing all out in the second leg or they can immediately extinguish Copenhagen's hopes in their own home. At the moment I think with the complete Manchester City players and this huge difference in strength makes Pep free to do whatever he wants.

Talking about Manchester City's problems in the Champions League, I don't think they will have any problems because even though KDB was not there before, their dominance was maintained even we can see where in the group phase they can get perfect results with 6 wins without losing in the group phase which proves that their dominance is unstoppable even without the presence of KDB in the squad.

Now the Round of 16 we just need to wait for that and KDB and Haaland will definitely return to them especially the opponent is only Copenhagen which although they are quite troublesome but in terms of strength and experience of course Manchester City is better for now so I am quite confident in the strength that Manchester City has.

On paper, City shouldn't have any serious problems when they play against Copenhagen in the round of 16 of the Champions League. even though the first leg match was held at Copenhagen headquarters, the fact is that these two teams have quite a clear gap. we can refer to the betting market, even though it is temporary, City is far superior even though the match is played at Copenhagen's home ground. I don't know yet whether KDB has fully recovered, played or not, but City still has depth that is far above Copenhagen's level. after all, Pep will be more serious and play his core players in the Champions League. they will target full points, in order to smooth their steps. at least, in the second leg, City will play more relaxed if they beat Copenhagen, especially with a landslide score.

As for Copenhagen, I don't mean to underestimate this team. however, they had quite a difficult time playing their match in the Group A phase. If Bayern had played seriously at that time and targeted full points, perhaps the situation would have been different for Copenhagen. however, despite being an underdog team.  However, Copenhagen will work hard when they play their match against Manchester City later. and what's interesting is, after the round of 16 match. in this phase, the match will be more serious because the team that passes certainly has the potential to make it difficult for City to advance to the next stage.
But still, I still have great faith.  if City plays its full core of players, and Pep implements his signature pattern. whichever team is the opponent, it will be difficult to match and provide resistance to City in the next meeting. in this phase, the Champions League will be more exciting and tense.
For the current Odds although still very far when talking about betting Manchester City has odds of 1.31 and 10.00 Copenhagen that actually clearly shows how different their strengths are before the bookie. Copenhagen isnt taken into account at all because the opponent is Manchester City,which is indeed the difference in their strength is far different and Manchester City's status as group winners also needs to be considered.

What is currently possible is Copenhagen trying to make the match a little more difficult and maximise the draw for them in the match but of course it is also still very difficult to happen even though we know that they are quite good in defence when passing through the group phase but Manchester City is also very good in attack determination.

Sebenarnya saya rasa ini menjadi dilema ketiaka berbicara tentang hasil survey elektabilitas capres karena bagaimanapun juga saat ini sepertinya memang survey elektabilitas seperti ini selalu menjadi tolok ukur para pengamat politik ketika berbicara tentang pemilu saat ini.
Masalahnya adalah apakah memang itu sepenuhnya benar karena bagaimanapun juga ketika berbicara tentang survey terkadang hal seperti ini sedikit rumit mengingat sekalipun pada akhirnya ada survey yang benar-benar dilakukan tetapi hasil dari survey nya itu sendiri dapat di pertanyakan.
Ketika saya di waktu kuliah dahulu tepatnya di pemilihan sebelumnya saya mendapatkan tugas dari salah satu lembaga survey untuk olah hasil dari surveyor (kerjaan serabutan saya ketika kuliah Cheesy) yang berhubungan tentang pemilu dan kesadaran warga dalam pemilu melalui survey tetapi melihat jawaban yang diberika kepada surveyor sebenarnya terkadang itu sama dan hanya sebagai formalitas saja sehingga dalam hal ini terkadang sulit membuat hasil survey yang benar-benar real.
Selain itu, kita juga tahu bahwa hasil survey di masalah pemilu atau ketika ada pemilihan apapun di beberapa hasil sebelumnya juga terkadang itu terbukti masih menjadi spekulatif dimana ketika hasil survey yang memang tinggi untuk salah satu pasangan calon terkadang itu tidak membuat situasi menjadi sama ketika pemilihan karena beberapa situasi dan kondisi termasuk ketidak jujuran dari survey serta ada hal-hal lain yang mengganggu misalnya.
Sehingga dalam hal ini saya masih merasa bahwa tidak terlalu baik jika pada akhirnya hal seperti ini dijadikan sebagai tolok ukur karena bagaimanapun juga Survey terkadang tidak sesuai dengan ekspektasi ketika pemilihan berlangsung.

Ok but frankly speaking, Newcastle United would have been well advised if they invested a decent amount of money into new good players. I am not against their approach as I think it is refreshing to see a club that doesn't go nuts and invest billions and is making ill-considered decisions all the time because money doesn't matter, but I think they were too low key during the transfer periods. They do have the money and they should have done something to improve the quality of their squad. Times have changed for them and in the Champions League things are different.
Eddie Howe will not lose his job because he has really tried for the club, he's not one of these average club that's not holding any solid evidence. Newcastle united doesn't know how to play good football, everything they needed this season was just there for them but they couldn't make good options, they settle for lesser actions and this is definitely not the news their fans are itching to hear. They're keen on watching the Newcastle United that thrash PSG 4-1 at Parc des Princes stadium, The Newcastle that eliminated both Manchester City and Manchester United from the carabao cup, it seems they're no longer in form and winning becomes very challenging for him.
With Newcastle's current condition I think it's a little complicated to say that Howe can maintain his position as coach for Newcastle.
Because after all at this time we know that Newcastle's situation must want to be better than last season and when the position is not favourable and can't even do much in the standings then indeed they indirectly regress and the management will certainly not remain silent about it especially with the resources they have at this time they will continue to overhaul in terms of players including coaches in order to establish themselves to be at a greater level than before.
So by looking at this, I personally am not too sure if I say that Howe will be safe to be in the Newcastle coaching with Newcastle's current condition.

Even without Kevin De Bruyne in Manchester City squad, they will qualify to the round of sixteen because the team is not a bad team that solely depend on only one player. I will agree with everyone that without Kevin De Bruyne, their performance is not as last season and they lose some matches they are supposed to win due to his absence, and I will also agree with you if you said that he is a player that if Manchester City play without him, they might not win the Premier League as well as Champions League.
Manchester City is already in the last sixteen now in the Champions League and in the middle of next month all teams including Manchester City will compete again to reach the last eight. However, without Kevin De Bruyne in the Manchester City squad this season, of course there will be a little difficulty for Manchester City to reach several important rounds in the Champions League. Because other teams have also improved rapidly in their respective strengths, Manchester City will not run smoothly in the two big competitions this season.

Manchester City performance has been affected by the absence of KDB in the squad as it has been in their games despite having a very solid team one of the best team in the world but their position in the EPL and their game play says it all because the impact of KDB has been lacking in the team. Manchester City has managed to get to the round of 16 in the UCL I think they can still struggle to win games in the UCL even without the presence of KDB but the team will be in better shape and there will be more distribution of passes and more chances will be created if KDB should return from injury, hopefully he's going to be in the squad soon because City performance in the EPL has dropped so much.
Talking about Manchester City's problems in the Champions League, I don't think they will have any problems because even though KDB was not there before, their dominance was maintained even we can see where in the group phase they can get perfect results with 6 wins without losing in the group phase which proves that their dominance is unstoppable even without the presence of KDB in the squad.

Now the Round of 16 we just need to wait for that and KDB and Haaland will definitely return to them especially the opponent is only Copenhagen which although they are quite troublesome but in terms of strength and experience of course Manchester City is better for now so I am quite confident in the strength that Manchester City has.

I actually don't care too much about this if it's in the outside circle (not family) because after all, when it comes to gambling once you are involved in it then maybe you will know that the situation is quite complex considering that it is not only about gambling that is thought about but about our economy that must be maintained.
I don't really listen to other people about their opinions on me whether it's about gambling or other issues but for the family it's a different story because I also have to always communicate considering that the gambling that is done certainly uses money that my family (partner) should know so that when I feel that it's going too far and gambling too big in terms of budget then someone reminds me about it.
But until now I gambl, my partner also knows that he doesn't do anything because I gamble with money that is very reasonable and never interferes with other needs in terms of finance only for gambling so I am still very comfortable now. As for other people talking negatively, that's their business because I also don't harm them even though I gamble.

Since İlkay Gundogan arrived in Barcelona from Manchester City he has been useful for Barcelona and also helped Barcelona to win matches. I wonder why Pep Guardiola could allow a player like İlkay Gundogan to leave Manchester City. Barcelona's win yesterday against Las Palmas has put them back in the La Liga title race.
Barcelona scouts good players that would helped the team in crucial moments, last night was a perfect illustration for a player to uplift the club. Las Palmas was leading from first half, they were desperate to net another goal but finally succumb because Barcelona didn't hold back, they reciprocate their actions and levelled the scores, then injury time, Gundogan comprehend a stunning penalty kick into the post. İlkay Gundogan deserves his flowers, his presence in Camp Nou have been significant and he's a key player in the midfield room for Barcelona.

Bringing in Gundogan is great for Barcelona because at least they can make some difference in midfield and his ability has been tested so it's not wrong for Gundogan to be in Xavi's midfield at the moment but if you say the reason he can change at crucial times is actually a fifty-fifty despite the good performance he had before the penalty.

In this match it was still very good for Barcelona because they got back 3 points while securing their 3rd place from Atletico's pursuit but until now the problem is still the same for Barcelona where they are still struggling to make the advantage in terms of opportunities and possession into goals and in today's match it was actually seen how they were confused by Las Palmas, which in terms of level was very far below them.

Premier League is very competitive. Newcastle management should have built a strong squad before the start of this season. Because they have a lot of money. But Newcastle management were not keen on strengthening their squad. As a result we see Newcastle's decline again this season.

They might have way more money after they got acquired by the Saudis, but they're still nowhere near the top premier league clubs. Depending on what criteria we take into consideration, by a quick google search Newcastle is somewhere between 7th and 11th place in the richest premier league clubs ranking. So if we assume that more money should convert to a higher league position, they're doing pretty much as expected.
Of course their poor performance in the last 5 games could be concerning, and probably won't improve on Sat 13th, when they're more likely than not to get beat up by Man City.
This is a transitional season for Newcastle because after all we have seen a very good movement from Newcastle in the previous season but because they are faced with something new (Champions League) it is very difficult for them to make the transition to be able to focus on all the competitions they have.
So it is precisely by trying to focus on several competitions at once that this makes the situation worse because they destroy both.

Now that the game has resumed in the middle of this season, Newcastle will definitely focus on the EPL because after all this is the only hope for them that the investment made by the Middle Eastern Sheikh is not wrong but there must be some changes made for them to further prove themselves that they deserve to be recognised.

Ane rasa kebahagiaan itu kompleks gan, sebab kebahagiaan itu bukan orang lain yang rasakan dan kebahagiaan adalah rasa dari perasaan kita sendiri yang mungkin bisa orang lain rasakan bukan orang lain tilai. Meskipun banyak harta uang banyak badan sehat dsb, jika perasaan bahagia itu tidak hadir apa gunanya banyak harta dsb, jadi menurut pandangan saya rasa bahagia itu anugerah dari yang maha kuasa atas segala nikmat nya. Dan perasaan bahagia itu bisa cepat hadir dengan mensyukuri nikmat dan pemberian tuhan yang mahakuasa seperti tuhan berikan kita organ tubuh serta kesehatan nya. Dengan begitu mudah untuk kita merasakan bahagia.
Ini cukup penting dan saya sepakat dengan apa yang anda katakan karena pada akhirnya kebahagiaan itu sifatnya substanstif dan itu tergantung dari persepsi setiap orang karena tingkatan kebahagiaan seseorang itu berbeda-beda tetapi yang pasti dalam hal ini kita tidak akan mungkin melakukan sesuatu dan bertahan didalamnya jika kita tidak bahagia. Sekalipun memang tidak semua yang dirasakan di crypto tidak semuanya indah tetapi pasti kita sadar bahwa selama kita berada disini dan tetap berada di kripto itu menandakan bahwa ini adalah salah satu sumber kebahagiaan. Saya pribadi tidak bisa mengukur kebahagiaan sebenarnya tetapi memang saya sudah cukup nyaman dengan yang saya lakukan di kripto saat ini sehingga mungkin itulah yang bisa dijadikan sebagai salah satu aspek yang membuat saya bahagia.
Tetap jalani apa yang memang kita minati karena memang itu adalah salah satu cara kita untuk menikmati hidup sekalipun ada tantangan yang membuat kita sulit untuk mendapatkan kebahagiaan tetapi selama kita nyaman maka itu tidak menjadi masalah.

Haven't we learnt from the past? We are still doing panic selling which was witnessed as there were fuds created by some influencers about possible rejection of spot ETF and once this spread across we saw how people were on selling mode which literally brought down the value of Bitcoin to $40750. But this was a tight slap on face of those who tried bringing down Bitcoin as it survived this attempt as well and rising again.

There's no stopping this because it's part of the ever-present FOMO of thinking that ETFs are the only way for bitcoin to keep rising.
Things like this are bound to happen and they include will always utilise all means to make them individually profitable and aim for people to sell their bitcoin especially for beginners who really believe that ETFs are the way to bring bitcoin higher and when ETFs are not approved bitcoin will not move and instead they will lose.

But indeed things like this need to be emphasised to those new people who still believe in things like this so that panic can still be minimised. Even though if we remain confident in the long-term plans we have, we should be calm that things like this will not interfere with the plans we do for the long term.

It's different between coaches and players, so coaches have nothing to do with a person's career as a football player and there are even some great coaches who are not basically football players.
It's a bias.

There are some great coaches who weren't football players, but most of good coaches were football players.

It's make sense because you can't feel a sense how a good strategy and team play was supposed to, the way is become the player. Arsene Wenger is one of most popular coaches who wasn't a player.
As far as I know Wenger played as a professional player at Strasbourg, one of the clubs in Ligue 1 but there is no achievement to be proud of there.
But that does not mean there are no coaches who have not been players before because there are several coaches such as Maurizio Sarri, Brandon Rodgers and even Julian Nagelsmann. They never once registered as professional players but their achievements as coaches can be said to be very good.

Actually starting from a professional player or never having been a professional player at all has nothing to do with achievements in coaching but at least until now when looking at some of the current coaches it is more from professional players first because it is indeed a stumbling block for them because they have felt before when they were players but now they apply in something different as a tactic processor but their experience in the field as a player is used as a complement for them to be able to know what to do when as a coach.

For some reason in this case I want to separate PSG from the candidates Cheesy
Indeed in terms of strength they are still very much a priority and could be a strong candidate to win the Champions League but it seems that to do that it needs extra effort for them at this time if they really want to be included in the list of the strongest clubs and juxtaposed with some big clubs like Manchester City or maybe Madrid and Bayern.

PSG's situation is always unfavourable for them every season because in the last 2 seasons they always meet strong clubs and the clubs they face always become champions at the end of the season. This season they also have difficulties because they have to be in the hell group and the quality of players who are still in transition after the overhaul in the attack line.
They need to work harder if they really expect a good position or can compete for the Champions League title.
PSG performance wasn't too impressive during group stages because they had suffering 2 loses and PSG only able to collect 8 points from 6 matches and their final position have to determined in the last match of group stages but luckly PSG can able to qualified to round of 16 and they will facing Sociedad later which is on the paper PSG should be able to overcomes Sociedad but it won't be easy because Sociedad performance is more impressive although this is their first time to playing at round of 16 but i don't think Sociedad can be underestimate

Indeed i think i have to agree with you that PSG probably cannot be considered as champion candidate this season because they have to hard struggle to through an group stages even in the last two season PSG was unable to reach to the quarterfinal stages but they are under new manager Luis Enrique which is this manager had good experience in champion league because he can able to bringing Barcelona to gets the trophy so lets see how far they will go in this competition
Certainly in every match PSG is always the favourite including in the previous group stages but we know the probability of who is the favourite in a match will not make the match easy. I will take an example when the match between them and Newcastle in the first leg they were very favourite in that match but ended up with a massacre for PSG.

Right now Sociedad is a dark horse. Not only in the Champions League but for the competitions they play in domestic competitions. This could be a stumbling block for PSG because surely Sociedad also don't want to be considered as a complement for the Round of 16 this time especially they definitely want something interesting for the debutant to do in the Champions League this time.
Now we just need to wait whether PSG's luxurious squad is able to subvert the unexpected strength of Sociedad or not.

Real Madrid is not the only team that is the favorite to win the Champions League title this season, but you have to consider Manchester City, Bayern Munich and several other strong teams, including PSG. All teams have the chance to win the match and advance to the final, but the probability vary.

Tiktok ini cerdas banget melihat peluang pasar UMKM dan tingginya pengguna aplikasi Tiktok di Indonesia. Mereka masuk kembali ke pasar Indonesia bukan dengan membuat platform e-commerce sendiri, tapi memanfaatkan Tokopedia yang merupakan e-commerce terbesar di Indonesia. Kalau gak salah kemarin Tiktok menebus 75,01% saham Tokopedia di harga 345.246/saham (https://market.bisnis.com/read/20231215/192/1724288/tiktok-tebus-saham-tokopedia-dari-goto-rp345246-per-lembar-wajar-atau-mahal), jauh berkali lipat di harga saham sebenarnya 300an/saham. Gak tahu kenapa Tiktok membeli saham Tokopedia dengan harga setinggi ini, tapi prediksi saya Tiktok mempunyai agenda besar dengan Tokopedia dan pasar UMKM di Indonesia, kayanya ByteDance induk Tiktok mau menguasai pasar e-commerce Indonesia dan menyingkirkan Shopee, Lazada, dan Bukalapak sebagai pesaing mereka di industri e-commerce nasional.
Kayanya pemerintah harus bekerja ekstra lagi nih, soalnya kalau tidak di awasi Tiktok bisa menjadi "monster" di bisnis e-commerce nasinonal, karena mereka punya semua sumber daya yang bisa mereka gunakan untuk menyingkirkan pesaing mereka dan menjadi raja e-commerce di Indonesia.
Inilah salah satu kecerdasan yang dimiliki oleh ByteDance yang perlu di waspadai oleh kompetitor lainnya. Kita tahu saat ini Tiktok adalah meda sosial yang paling laris dan banyak penggunanya di Indonesia khususnya selain dari media sosial lain seperti Twitter dan produk dari Meta (Meta/FB dan Instagram). Dengan sekarang ByteDance yang berhasil mengakuisisi Tokopedia yang notabene adalah salah satu E-commerce terbesar di Indonesia juga ini seperti menggabungkan dua perusahaan yang besar menjadi sesuatu yang lebih besar lagi dan tentu saja ini patut di waspadai karena bisa saja mereka justru akan bisa menjadi lebih meroket lagi dan sekarang dengan tema "beli lokal" maka sudah pasti ini bisa menjadi salah satu daya tarik untuk mereka.
Sekalipun memang saat ini belum ada beberapa referensi khusus untuk memperlihatkan keuntungan yang dicapai saat ini tetapi saya cukup yakin bahwa mereka sudah mendapatkan keuntungan yang cukup besar dari hal ini dan itu termasuk untuk mereka para pelaku usaha online yang sempat berhenti beroperasi karena kebijakan pemerintah yang menutup sementara tiktokshop.

I am aware that cryptocurrencies might not replace fiat but I am sure that they will play a greater part in the global financial system in the future. This is why many countries are introducing CBDCs in a bid to fill in the vacuum created by cryptocurrencies. But they have also failed to achieve their aim because people know that these CBDCs are nothing but digital fiat.  
I don’t think the government has failed in their plan to implement CBDCs. The past few years have only been a test run to introduce CBDCs to the public so people will not find the idea of a digital version of fiat as strange when it finally happens. So far, they have been able to control the perception about CBDCs and from the way I see things, there is not going to be much resistance from the masses if the government decide to go ahead with implementing CBDCs.
The problem in this case is that I think they are just trying to continue to cover it up with some definitions that seem to illustrate under CBDC that the concept is different from fiat but at the end of the day, if we really understand more about this, it will all lead to the same thing with a more updated system but the scheme remains the same.
I think even if the government wants a special definition of CBDC in the end, the result will still be the same where they will not be able to deceive forever about CBDC considering when people who have been in crypto for a long time should realise immediately that CBDC is just a tool used by the government to regulate the financial system differently but with the same method regardless of the different definitions applied, the method is still the same.

Harry Kane's arrival at Bayern Munich since the start of the season has been something that is worth discussing now because his experience and maturity as a striker is very capable of breaking through the ambitions needed by Bayern Munich. It is not surprising that Bayern Munich's striker options up to now only depend on him and if he is absent due to a card or long-term injury, of course that will put Bayern Munich in a difficult phase.
The truth is that every players in premier League always find it very easy to adapt to any kind of league especially Bundesliga so if you check very well you will see that all the premier League players that find themselves outside the premier League are always on a better form, while most people believe that Bundesliga players could hardly adapt to the premier League do to how difficult premier League is that's why most most people were thinking that Haaland will not perform very well on Manchester City but however he was able to surprise everyone with his impressive performance and the good records he has created for himself. So actually Harry Kane performance on Bayern Munich was actually expected because he was one of the best player on Tottenham Hotspur before he joined Bayern Munich.
In my opinion this depends on the players themselves and of course the fit at the club because in the end not all who come from the EPL can also shine well in other competitions even though some of them are also successful as well as for the bundesliga because in the end there are some alumni from the bundesliga who can succeed in other competitions including the EPL and some of them also fail so in this case I think it depends on the players themselves in the adaptation process and the fit at the new club.

Indeed, for EPL players there is something more in adaptation because they are accustomed to a fast rhythm so that when moving to other domestic competitions such as the Bundesliga or Serie A which is a little slow in terms of tempo they can adapt with less difficulty.
For Kane he has looked very good from the beginning when at Tottenham so when he is in the Bundesliga with a slightly decreased tempo and a level of competition that is not too heavy compared to the EPL it can benefit him and at this time it is proven that he is playing very well.

I think both are very good if used as an investment but indeed when choosing which one is the best between real estate and crypto, it is certain that things like this depend on the point of view, perception and of course the situation you have in finance.
Both have a level of advantages and disadvantages so that it cannot be if we only compare in terms of aspects, especially if what is sought is instant profit.
Real Estate of course we all understand that this is a very promising investment but investing here is not easy because you must have well-controlled finances because after all the investment here could be longer than we imagine besides that, this is also a risk for other purposes in management which will definitely spend a lot of money.

On the other hand Crypto, especially bitcoin, is more flexible in terms of capital, it's just that the risks we take are greater than real estate because after all crypto, especially bitcoin, is not a comfortable place and it would be very naive to say this is an instant place to get rich because the process and risks are far greater than that.
So in this case you have to determine for yourself which one you think is the best because everyone must have a different perspective on saying the best investment.
