Has anyone know the reason why Samu Castillejo has been given a red card? It's the first time I saw a player who isn't even in the field received one, he was literally just on the bench the whole time when the ref has given it.

I read on the news, the reason why Castillejo getting a red card because he had over-protested to officials from the bench.

That's the only probability but I was wondering why the ref has given the red card after the penalty save from Reina, I really don't think Samu Castillejo has continued protesting when the rest of the Milan players are celebrating with the save from Reina. Nevertheless all the red card I have seen was all not necessary in my eyes, it just happens that the ref was trigger happy giving yellow and red cards all through out the match.

I remember when AC Milan issued to build their new stadium after opening CASA Milan few years ago. But, till today, there is no information again about that. May be this is happen to AC Milan?
It's politics. The mayor of Milan talked about the new stadium. Both Milan and Inter are interested in building it together but according to the mayor they are free to do so but they can't touch the Giuseppe Meazza. The Meazza belongs to the city they don't allow it to be demolished.

Another problem here why the plan of the new stadium was stalling is because San Siro/Giuseppe Meazza is now being offered available for sale to them so both Inter and Milan now is thinking if they would either rehabilitate the old stadium or push through with the new stadium. It seems like one considerable factor here is the fans having sentimental value for San Siro being their stadium and a lot of fans on both Milan teams are having negative thoughts on the idea of the new stadium.

Anyone else watched the game of Milan against Genoa? It was totally a crazy match too many yellow cards and red cards given and honestly I have disagreed with most of the referees decisions including the one when he has given a red card for Biraschi for the unintentional handball. Theo Hernandez started the goal scoring but all I can say is that Pepe Reina was the player of the match with the penalty saved he did not to mention that penalty was wrongly given and the ref refused VAR for the clarifications. I thought this was another missed opportunity for Milan but thank God that they had a break especially their coach.

P.S.

Has anyone know the reason why Samu Castillejo has been given a red card? It's the first time I saw a player who isn't even in the field received one, he was literally just on the bench the whole time when the ref has given it.

Doubt that the exchange will have the "decentralized" status permanently with McAfee being the one running it. There are two possibilities I see why soon it will have KYC for their exchange one is that the exchange will be too big to avoid KYC and the other one is McAfee being such a high profile person in the industry in such the authorities will permit him having a decentralized exchange or it can be both. But do you really think that this DEC is ideal for us members? I don't think so, if they ever plan to launch their own IEOs with their exchange I know for sure that McAfee will be biased with all of them and he will also have a big position for it ready to be offloaded once it is tradeable in their platform. There are other much better options out there and I won't be sticking my funds anywhere near John McAfee's name.

ChrisPop is right even without pming you for anyone that is interested the only real way to increase your position without adding more capital is by shorting Bitcoin or for any cryptocurrency in that matter. Of course it's easier said than done since we don't know the how much and when we will short an asset or even if it will fall after we sell our holdings. That's why they key to any kind of shorting is to always know the resistances of the asset and when it will re-test it. If it fails to break out of it then you can sell but if it continues to go up after the resistance it's really up to your choice if you will still sell or hope that it will re-test another key resistance level. Having a plan is really what you need and not try to be greedy always as it may lead to losing all of your capital after.
1345  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why not use Exchange instead of Mixer? on: October 03, 2019, 07:39:23 PM
BTC is not made to be anonymous, and every service that envolves a third party is also not anonymous as you need to trust the third party (unless the third party can prove that there is absolutely no info retained about the service - not sure if this is feasible)
If you need privacy or anonimity, you need to look for privacy coins... not all of them provide a solid service, as there are also some coins like Dash that envolve third parties... I would check out monero, beam, veil, grin... and so on

But what will you choose to send and receive Bitcoins with a crypto exchange who has your KYC documents or a Mixer who can do the service for you without even knowing who you are? If you are smart enough and you really want to have the best chance to remain anonymous then you can go with the latter as that is just really your best option right now. Plus if you go with a mixer you won't have the common problems being faces by crypto exchanges when it comes to sending cryptocurrencies on a large amount like your transaction being hold, or certain flags being raise because of an unusual amount.

Some more about Milan.Due to Tutto Sport current Milan coach got ultimatum,last chance
Or Milan will show better play in coming game or he will be sacked
Italian media are speculating about new coach.Some of them are speculating about Wenger but nothing is for sure yet

Tuttosport just like Gazzetta aren't reliable sources when it comes to early news they are all just rumors at best. I'm a fan for the team and I know that Milan isn't even a team who sacks their managers that fast when it is still early in the season. Like Gatusso, Inzaghi, and Mihajlović all of them played at least several games or waited by the end of the season before they got sacked from the team and I don't expect Marco Giampaolo to be any different. After all they wouldn't lose anything since they aren't competing in the top spot or in any European competition yet.
1347  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing]: Golovkin vs. Dereyvanchenko - Vacant IBO Title on: October 03, 2019, 05:45:08 PM
Interesting that this fight happened since ever since Canelo turned down a fight in September the other choices are Callum Smith, Demetrius Andrade, and Billy Joe Saunders to fight him next. Golovkin really wants to fight the best boxer out there and I think Sergiy Derevyanchenko is a huge step up compared to Steve Rolls. This will be a huge fight for Golovkin and after this I think Canelo cannot avoid another rematch with him especially if his sponsor, DAZN, already agreed to fight with him. This would be too obvious that Canelo is avoiding him and he doesn't want to prove anything more.

Even though we aren't looking at the charts and the physical aspects only you will see that Bitcoin is no bubble. The fact the companies and (most) governments from each countries are preparing for mass adoption alone is a clear statement that the demand for cryptocurrency is only just starting and this is not a kind of hype just because we are only seeing price punps and dips this big. Aside from mass adoption you will see that the crypto industry itself is getting bigger and bigger not only through new projects launching ICOs but other businesses or establishments entering the market to have their own crypto related businesses.
1349  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2019-10-02] Bitcoin Logo on Futsal Florentia, Serie A Women’s Football Team on: October 03, 2019, 11:06:41 AM
Based from the follow-up news I have seen related to this this was in fact done voluntarily and there is no money involved for the team to put up Bitcoin's logo on their shirts. This just confirmed what I was thinking that what company would just show Bitcoin's logo and not the logo of their own business. The change was of course done internally and the management and no other third party are involved with the decision. They are only saying that it's just about increasing the awareness for Bitcoin and I do agree since Italy is one of the friendliest European country for the crypto industry.

For a newbie like yourself you have done pretty well of being skeptical and spotting scams like this one and you are right this is indeed a scam waiting to happen for you. Any kind of service, social media account, or business impersonating the real thing for this matter, Coinbase, is an absolute scam if they ever done a giveaway they won't promote it and tell it on an external app they will announce it in their website or any of their official social media accounts not through a Telegram channel.  Not only wallets are being impersonated but also other entities part of the industry one of the worst things I saw is when a lot of fake social media accounts impersonated several news media websites (e.g. Coinidol, Coindesk, Cointelegraph) and tried to promote their scam directly to the comment are of their posts. If someone approach you and carrying a name you are familiar offering up a sketchy deal (or any kind of investment opportunity that is to good to be true)then back out of it immediately.
1351  Other / Meta / Re: Please don't use bold text in your posts. on: October 02, 2019, 07:31:36 PM
I find it slows down my reading quite considerably. Presumably you want people to read your post - well bold and coloured text is non-standard, and it slows down reading for those of us who are busy, and have other interests.

But isn't that the point of bolding a message? You are just simply highlighting and putting an emphasize on the part of what you are trying to say. If a user is using it sparingly on each of his/her post I don't think it would bother anyone even if you are busy on what you are doing and after all what are you even busy for in the first place if you are just here in the forum reading posts of other members? For users just bolding some parts of their text and not most of their post I personally appreciate on what they are doing as they are highlighting the key words/sentences in their post which makes me comprehend what they are trying to say.

Did a little digging and I can confirm that faderencia is at least working or connected with HackBitcoinWallet from this post:

This person is in charge of defaming our platform and our service just because we do not send one of our products for free.  Our reputation is faultless, we have no negative comments at all, this person instead is pointing us out of scammers without real evidence.  We have already reported to the moderator and we have reported his profile in this forum.  Please ignore what this person can say.

Also just by reading the OP from the quoted message I provided you will see that hackbitcoinwallet has in fact scammed a certain individual that is why I will also be providing a red tag for them. Good job OP for connecting the two accounts well.

This is the kind of match I really want to see a European club that we barely knew manage to score two goals against Real Madrird. Honestly I didn't know Emmanuel Bonaventure's name before their match against Real Madrid but wow he managed to score two goals against them, the first goal was controversial and I really thought they will disallow it but the referee saw it in another way. It was really a nice first half for Brugge and Madrid was lucky to catch up to end the match with a draw.

Di lang sa shilling talamak ang ganyang article meron pang mas malala dyan na nakakaapekto talaga ng market at ito yung mga misleading news articles na puro opinyon at kanya kanyang hula ng mga author na ito. Subukan niyo isearch lang sa Google ang "Bitcoin" and punta sa news tab and pili lang kayo ng article dun na nanggagaling sa mga sikat na crypto news website makikita niyo na minsan a misleading or hindi kaya maling information binibigay. Yung mga ganyang headline at news ang nakakadulot ng FUD sa market and nakakalala sa kondisyon nito, hindi talaga sapat na mga ilan ilan lang ang nakakaalam ng tamang informasyon kasi kapag ang karamihan ang nagpaniwala mas madami ang chance na magkaka FUD sa market.

Just as I want to tag this guy I don't think that he is lowkey promoting the website and might just be another newbie pending to be a victim to this hyip site. He did ask properly on having a discussion at the end of his thread and he also asked permission if hey can post his referral code in the forum. So I would rather just explain it to him that the website he is trying to refer to other members here in the forum is a scam than tag him right away for not knowing any better, just remember he might also be a victim here. I have supported the flag solely because of the website but I don't see any intentions from him that he wants to scam anybody that is why I won't tag him.

I beg to disagree with you if you visit Bitcoins subreddit page, r/Bitcoin, right now you will see that even if we are bearish a lot of people are still optimistic with Bitcoin going up. Just take a look at this post and you will see that they are waiting for the next halving and all of the comment are being shared are not about them following Bitcoin blindly they are somehow knowledgeable with the topic and the industry overall. Aside from this forum I usually go to either tradingview or r/Bitcoin to get my daily dose of analysis and news related to Bitcoin and it really helps if you have multiple sources with different opinions on that matter.
1357  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: September 30, 2019, 08:39:30 PM
Some rumors from Italy, Milan seems in contact with Shevchenko if they will fire Giampaolo.0

Anyway, the big match is Inter- Juve in Milan Sunday at 20.45 CET+1 or 20.45 CEST.  Tongue

Shevchenko was a great player, as a coach, maybe this is his chance to show if he can do it or not
He simply loves Milan, was a loyal player and if his tactic will be "forward-offensive" as he was playing football, maybe Milan could score some goals this season in SerieA

Shevchenko was a great player but I don't think he is the right coach to manage Milan. Shevchenko is currently managing the national team for Ukraine and all I can tell is the results aren't that impressive with their latest matches they only have one against 1 goal each on the two times they have fought against Luxembourg and their only notable win was against Serbia scoring 5 goals to nil. Aside from that he is just 43 years old and we all know that Milan isn't really good against young coaches. I would rather bet on the rumors surrounding Allegri coming back to Milan since he is out of any job and the only thing that stand in their way was his asking price which is 10 million Euros a year, if either of them will give in then they have a world class manager coaching the team.
1358  Economy / Economics / Re: Rate cuts money printing inflation on: September 30, 2019, 08:03:10 PM
First look for the current inflation rate your country has if the rate ranges around 2 to 5% then it is considered healthy
I wouldn't call 5% inflation healthy at all. In fact, it's something I would consider moving to another country for, especially if the taxation system is also designed to empty your pockets.

If you think logically, 5% inflation means that your money will lose 50% of its purchasing power in a decade. That's something I only see happen in financially weaker countries.

And now you are just moving out of my point, last time I checked it's about how risky it would be for Venezuela to still pursue in crypto investments as a saving grace for their country and now you are just picking of parts of my statements just to prove a point but I'll give you a worthy reply just to rebut what you are saying. Contrary to popular belief inflation (not hyperinflation) promotes economical growth for the country, it may increase the prices and all but it signifies demand for the products in that country unlike deflation where even if you have a bigger buying power only signifies a decrease in demand that is why they are giving more value for your money, Japan has been battling deflation for years and they still haven't reached their target. And why are you assuming that a 5% inflation rate happens yearly for 10 straight years? Inflation (again not hyperinflation) doesn't work that it is a means to balance out supply and demand if everything normalizes with the help of inflation then we can start to expect a decrease in inflation within a year or so or even by the end of a quarter.
1359  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: How I can build a cryptocurrency exchange ? on: September 30, 2019, 06:52:10 PM
It is not advisable to venture into this if you are asking on the know-how knowledge required to build a successful exchange. Those who have the domain experience still get hacked, how much more someone that want to learn how to do it. It is not a kids play because any loophole will lead to data and capital lost.

The door isn't close for this kind of business just because he don't have proper knowledge on how he can create his own crypto exchange. Most businessmen out here all just needs capital in order to start their own business and opening up a crypto exchange of his own is not any different from it. With the right people employed under him he would have his exchange running in no time. Just remember that creating a crypto exchange is not the tricky part here but it is all about the legality involve around it, @OP if you are interested in this kind of business you must consider first consulting with a lawyer in order to make your operations legal and after that part you can launch what you have developed. You really need to have a big budget for this since you would most likely spend on marketing and advertising your exchange in order for you to have traders in your platform, if you don't have the capital you might want to rethink on creating your own crypto exchange.
1360  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2019-09-27] Hyperinflation Forces Venezuelan Central Bank to Explore Bitcoin on: September 30, 2019, 06:08:50 PM
Exploring on high risk high reward asset such as Bitcoin would be like a double-edged sword for then if they don't know how to trade it properly.
If you think about it, the risk is negligible from where they are right now. If they went for Bitcoin a long time ago, they wouldn't have lost thousands of percents in purchasing power, but just a 50-60% if they bought at the very peak.

Obviously, the dollar or gold would have held their value better in the short term, but they are in need of an alternative that can't be censored and is easy to move, which is Bitcoin.

I however wouldn't want to see them use Bitcoin because all it does is point unwanted attention from opposing governments to Bitcoin. Let them use Ethereum or some other wonky smart contract platform.

Their situation is very different compared to small countries going big in crypto like what Malta is trying to do. In Venezuela's situation their economy is in the drain and the money they have left from their central bank and presumably the funds they have collected from their Petro coin is the only thing standing between it and having an even more worst position compared to before. They are not only battling the risk but also the hyperinflation that stands on their way even if they have doubled or tripled their ROI in a short time frame I don't think that would be enough to solve their problem with the economy. We are talking about an inflation rate that is expected to reach 10,000,000% by the end of 2019 and risking what they have on crypto isn't really the best solution out there.
