Have you not heard about any other virtual currency in the market  . Most of all of the virtual currencies in the market are decentralized, so there can be a question why you wanted to choose one over another  . government can have some control over the market if the government could handle the exchanges in their country as financial institutions and monitor the flow of money, the rest of the network cannot be controlled.

There is no denying that the entire community is split and no one cannot do anything about it, earlier we only had bitcoin but now we have a lot of different communities spun up for various coins and everyone is competing against each other and everyone has their solutions for scaling, people who are not using bitcoin will start using them in the future when they find it useful to transact worldwide than the regular banking system.

Till now all the matches between them might have gone the CSK way but IPL is like a reality show with dramas and i wont be wonder struck if i see SRH winning the final, their captain along with Rashid Khan and Sakkib Al Hassan are the main players and if they can silent these players they will run away with the trophy, if Rashid Khan produces a performance like he did with KKR SRH will win this tournament.

If you are not aware of it, this is a really old thread and if you find an error if you are looking for directbet, the site is closed a long time ago and it is one of the best sites when it comes to privacy, you can use nitrogensports to wage IPL bets but the entire season is over now and only the final to be played now.

Yeah your prediction might be right when it comes to CSK winning the tournament but they will be playing SRH as they have stormed into the final as expected by the all round performance of Rashid Khan, he is the best player of the tournament so far and he might even repeat this feat in the final, Kane Williamson and Rashid Khan is their solid players throughout this tournament and they are the key players if they need to defeat CSK.
I would not call the wins of CSK luck, it is purely the brilliance of Dhoni as a captain and a player.

I am sure there is some form of fixed matches being going on in this extravaganza but i do not think that these two banned teams are in the playoffs simply because of fixing, they just performed just enough to reach this situation and CSK is always a power house and under the leadership of Dhoni they are just performing as usual so it is not that stunning that they are in this playoff and they might even win the entire tournament after the ban.

The playoffs are really interesting where SRH has a good bowling unit and CSK has a good batting line up and it is going to be a great battle and i think they will be playing in the final simply because of the domination they had in the entire tournament while the other two teams somehow made it to the playoff. With the form Dhoni is in it is possible that CSK will win the tournament.

OP has a point as an individual who has a life who is not depending upon the new market situation basically telling that he never invested in bitcoin or any other cryptocurrencies and it is not important for everyone, if you take the basic fundamental of bitcoin it is used simply as a currency to trade but majority are taking it as a store of value.

Even if Satoshi is revealed there is nothing the government can do to stop it, it has grown from that situation, they can restrict the flow of money but they cannot do anything to stop this peer to peer model. I would like to see the governments coming together and come up with a regulation that would protect the users from scammers rather than thinking about shut it down.

I made a few bets and all of the IPL bets i made end up in a loss, there is a serious possibility that the matches are rigged, unless we have proof we could not tell that, the top teams are loosing all of a sudden and may be because they wanted to manipulate the rankings, anything is possible as it is a big cash cow for gamblers as well as team owners and the looser is the casual betters.

That was a good prediction, i knew this was match wont have many goals and i actually expected Manchester to win, both are having a terrible season and if not for the penalty this would have being a draw and this loss means that Manchester United did not win any trophy this year.
Looks like it might be the last match of Conte as the Chelsea manager.

I can bet that no early investor or the true whales will be holding their coins in an online wallet service provider like XAPO, instead they will be saving the coins in their own wallet, there are many users in the platform that does not bother to have their own wallet because it might confuse them and those are the users that are storing the coins, i am sure they have a big user base and approx 117647 bitcoins mean $10 billion.

It is true that the only big accomplishment of Holly Holm in MMA was to beat Ronda Rousey but do not forget that she was a multiple division world boxing champion and Kick boxing champion before entering MMA.
For Megan Anderson to be the face of MMA she needs to defeat Cyborg and i do not see anyone defeating her.

From what i know bitcoin cannot be used in criminal activities because it can be tracked and so is the reason many criminals are caught, so before coming to a conclusion make sure you learn about what you are talking about. The crash is not a big deal as i never expected the price to be trading around $10k last year, it is still really high by any investment standards, if you are not interested then do not invest in it.

Anyone can have their opinion and speculation about the price, there is no way that the price of bitcoin will reach a million dollars in a couple of years, he does not have any idea what he is talking about, even if the rally to a million starts now it will take longer than two years to get to that valuation, the only way he could win this bet is he is putting a buy order for one bitcoin at one millions.

If Kings XI won the match MI would have being eliminated, now every team has a chance to qualify and if RCB could perform really well in the next three matches they could qualify, they have the best batting line up and if they could find a solid bowler that could change the match things would have been different, i still think RR has the team to qualify for the fourth position.

The value of bitcoin is not able to provide some bounty coins to the users, the real use case of bitcoin is its ability to transact and used as a currency and as long as it can scale and accommodate two hundred transactions per second or more that will be the real game changer, the intention of bitcoin is to use bitcoin as peer to peer currency and hopefully we will see the entire world trading bitcoin in ten years time.

The main reason for commercialism of cricket in India is because of the cricket craze the entire country has and the advertisers found this as an opportunity to make use of this cricket craze, spot fixing might be new, but match fixing in cricket is there for decades, in the early and mid 90s there was a time when some of the people i know knew in which over a wicket would fall even before a ball is bowled and during that time gambling was done through phone calls, what i am telling is that it is not new.

If there is a good regulation we could stop fraudulent activities in the entire crypto market, we wont be seeing anymore scam ICO and ponzi schemes that are intended to fraud the investor, tax is applied when you convert your coin to the local fiat currency and there is nothing the government can do to disrupt the new way.

Bitcoins is a disruptive technology and it will change everything we see now but i do not see bitcoin or any other digital currency replacing fiat currency, we will have a system where we have to choice to spend money and that is the most important thing and hopefully we will see the future of economics changing soon.
