I have no idea of kyc in owning a bitcoin wallet or is it what am thinking that just maybe , you're developing a process that will condition people to download your particular app for use. Your proposed solution seem centralized to me and it doesn't look good for bitcoin.
Whatever suggestion the OP is trying to build on it doesn't matter to me, but the concept of decentralization doesn't require KYC to take place and it is because of this that freedom of choice of Bitcoins is acceptable and makes more sense.

Furthermore, why would someone give bitcoins, if they don't try to download the wallet and don't know how to use it. If indeed you intend to give bitcoin gifts, just download a wallet that doesn't require KYC, it's easier and can be done on the currently available wallet services.

The age factor often causes a decline in play, especially for single strikers, but it's different if you look at Lionel Messi, he is smarter in placing positions under single strikers so he doesn't have to run and duel openly.

The two teams only need to concentrate on one final match, France's pressure is much greater, because they are the previous World Cup Trophy winners, while Argentina has the opportunity to bury France's dream of defending the title. Lionel Messi has the opportunity to appear at the last World Cup this time and has the opportunity to lift the trophy before retiring from the Argentina national team.
Argentina has the figure of Lionel Messi as a player who is quite dangerous, even though his position is as a striker, he is able to control the match if the French squad does not provide escort and allows Lionel Messi to hold the ball freely. Lionel Messi has an advantage when carrying the ball and providing measured passes, so the French players need to stop their movements.

France has Ousmane Dembele, Antoine Griezmann and Kylian Mbappe as a deadly duo that can make it difficult for Argentina's defense. But that doesn't mean they will get an easy win against Argentina, even though the players France has are far superior to Argentina

It seems that there will be a lot of drama and parts that will appear related to the case that SBF is undergoing. Regardless that at this time he has been arrested or is indeed under investigation, in fact there are big things that make him so immune from the law. This is related to his political relations and SBF contribution to the campaign of one of the US presidents. So don't be surprised if this case will continue to be extended and bore us with drama episodes.
The person behind the SBF will form a body for the case that happened to him, but I think the US Attorney General will consider other aspects of the legal process against him, considering the case he created has an impact on legal stability there. Many legal experts are starting to pay attention to this case, and monitor that SBF is given appropriate sanctions for his behavior.

We hope that there won't be much drama during the examination, because this is pure fraud that the SBF is trying to do, so legal steps must be taken and given as fairly as possible.

Surprising. So far I haven't noticed Messi getting tired in any of the matches. He has two decades of experience behind him, and even in matches that went for penalty shootout he looked quite fired up. At least for him, age is just a number. Anyway, Argentina just have one more obstacle to cross before they can kiss on the world cup trophy. They are trying really hard ever since 1986, without much luck. And this time their long wait may come to an end. And credit should be given to the younger players as well. They have provided adequate support to Messi.

Bitcoin is decentralized and no one can control it. When a large number of bitcoin holders in the market make some money flows, the price may be affected, but not controlled.
We also have to know that PAUS are not only personal but can be companies and associations, so they have the quality to influence the market, the financial strength they have can maximize investment until the market fluctuates.

The habit of manipulation occurs due to buying actions carried out by PAUS when market conditions are down, so that they enter a period of heavy buying, people think this is a long rally that can pump up the market at a certain stage, but this is their scenario in collecting maximum profits and releasing during pumping conditions occur. Mastering market manipulation is often called trying to play a strategy, so PAUS can take two parts in the process of correction and pumping.

I have read some recent news that the facts of his crime have spread to the public and the news of SBF arrest has been awaited by all members of the crypto community, we will be waiting for some of the latest facts from his confession at the trial because he will not have the opportunity to say reasons to cover up his guilt. I will be waiting for answers on FTX financial management and relationships with some of the larger investors who have withdrawn funds from FTX.
The crypto community and investors are starting to wait for the decision that will be received by Samuel Bankman-Fried, after the trial of the verdict begins and will continue at the case decision stage, given his behavior which is very detrimental to many people. Samuel Bankman-Fried faces several serious charges, ranging from electronic fraud to money laundering.

It is not clear how many years Samuel Bankman-Fried will be given his prison sentence and whether all damages will have to be recovered, as the US Attorney General has yet to decide anything until the process is complete.

The law must be enforced against anyone who violates it, but until now the SBF has not been decided by the court what sanctions will be given to him, this opens space for the enactment of regulation on crypto.

The case that happened to SBF must be thoroughly investigated, so that similar incidents become a concern for everyone, because committing fraud for whatever reason is not right. The big problem is actually happening because of this case, in the form of encouragement for rules that will begin to be developed for crypto, regulations will continue to appear and as if this will create a safety barrier for crypto users.
949  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Was Bitcoin project a failure after all ? on: December 13, 2022, 05:18:10 AM
Since I started being introduced to Bitcoin last 2017, nothing changed. Bitcoin is always a Bitcoin no matter what. I think why people noticed Bitcoin being a failure or why they are telling it, it for sure because of the price fo Bitcoin or even because they lost some money investing in Bitcoin.
They don't appreciate what Bitcoin is.
This reasoning does not represent the truth about Bitcoin's journey, we have seen bitcoin investing and even as a promising asset store, so the fail category does not live up to the standards that are spoken of.

Losing money in investments, the risks they get when investing and market chaos to massive bitcoin corrections, this can never disappear at any time, that's why bitcoin is considered to fluctuate and have risks in investing. But that doesn't mean that bitcoin has failed in its journey to date, if people are able to understand the concept of investing in bitcoin, then failure in investing will not occur.

Indeed, risk is everywhere and we really can't assume the secureness of our job and any business around.
All the work that we do must have a risk, because currently there is no job that does not contain risks. The worker's job is to minimize, not avoid, this is something that is difficult for people to do, because there are no targets and timeframes for work.

Quote
Good decision making for sure will allow you to survive, with good judegment you'll be picking the right one that's fits to your needs.
Life must have a target that must be achieved, because we will not always work with other parties, moreover there is no guarantee of survival when the prospects for the work we do do not develop.

Quote
That's reality which we cannot deny, even how hard you do the chance of being lay off can happen to you.
This is a certainty, whether we experience layoffs or retirement, then what targets should we achieve after this happens, we must set standards at work and must have options when things that are not desirable happen.
951  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: December 13, 2022, 03:40:20 AM
There is no news regarding him joining any club yet
Ronaldo should still be in pain over the exit he never expected
A move to Chelsea will be a better option they need him
There is no official news regarding the future of Cristian Ronaldo which club he will play next season, but there are rumors that Cristian Ronaldo will consider joining Al-Nassr, besides that this wealthy club from Saudi Arabia also intends to bring Roberto Fermino there, Al - Nassr intends to make a promising duet between Cristian Ronaldo and Roberto Fermino next season. Although until now there is no certainty between the two players will join them.

While my monitoring is in the media, Chelsea are not eyeing Cristian Ronaldo in the transfer market this winter, even though their new owner has stated they are interested in Cristian Ronaldo, so far they are seriously monitoring three players Jonathan David, Rafael Leao and Jonathan David, although there has been no official news.
952  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: December 12, 2022, 07:09:59 AM
No, I think he's still pretty good up to this Quarter-final. Are you calling him bad because he's a star player? I think there are many players who have had worse luck than Ronaldo.

Regarding his transfer, I have read that he will only be in the transfer market in January 2023. So as long as there is no official news from Al Nassr and Ronaldo, there will still be many possibilities.
It is quite naive to say that Cristian Ronaldo is bad for not being able to take his country to the final, because in fact many other players did not even qualify for the knockout stages. I agree with you, many other players fared worse, if you want to compare with Cristian Ronaldo.

At the moment there is no official news regarding the agreement between Al Nassr and Cristian Ronaldo, but I think the defeat against Morocco opened up opportunities for Cristian Ronaldo to join them.
953  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: December 12, 2022, 05:40:51 AM
Need three matches later for AC Milan possibility reaching Napoli points right now, behind left 8 points and Milan position currently as second place I don't think have easy opportunity for getting back 1st position standing. AC Milan have inconsistency performance in Serie A last three matches, defeated by Torino 2-1 and won from Spezia before losing full points after draw with Cremonese.

Still not close yet with Milan opportunity back to top standing position, but need win all matches left and hope Napoli can defeated at next several matches and loss their points. However Napoli have consistency performance with unbeaten record than AC Milan can't in the winning track.
There is still a chance to catch Napoli's points, although it can be said that it is difficult to catch eight points with the leaders, at least in the last three matches they have been on a good track, winning against Fiorentina, Spezia and drawing against Cremonese. While Napoli have an eight-point lead to maintain the standings, they are required to win or at least draw their next few games.

Looking at the league, Juventus seems like they have a better momentum to be fair, I know that not many people will agree with me here but with players coming back from injury, they may end up playing much better than Milan. In that case we may end up seeing Juventus take the second position first, then they could take the first position from Napoli, only if Napoli starts to lose a lot of games of course.

They still have zero losses, and it is obvious that they are going to eventually have at least one, probably 2-3 by the end of the season at least, and that means if they have only that much, it's fine but if they end up losing 5 games or so from here on out, they may lose that points advantage they have.
While Napoli were in quite convincing condition when the match started, they had a point advantage in maintaining the standings, however, this opportunity must really be used perfectly, because if you suffer one defeat, it will have an impact on the next game.

Juventus have more time and concentration to prepare for Serie A, while Napoli and AC Milan are still playing in the Champions League, this will also affect the condition of the players in preparation for the Scudetto (my assumption). That's why what you said is more relevant, given the chances of the three clubs.

AC Milan's current position is indeed in a very possible place to catch Napoli at the top of the Standings, but you also have to see how Napoli's consistency will be after the world cup later. Because if Napoli are still quite consistent in every game for the rest of this season, it will be difficult for other teams to catch up with them at the top of the standings, including AC Milan itself. This is not only due to the opportunities for other teams besides Napoli, but also due to the gap in points that Napoli already has at the moment.
All possibilities still have a chance to happen, even though it seems that Napoli has the advantage in chasing the Scudetto this season. But all of that will get easier, the three Napoli are able to play consistently in the second half of the season, because if they get a draw or lose, this opens up opportunities for challengers to catch up on the points they currently have.
954  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin will not become the world currency. on: December 12, 2022, 04:00:18 AM
El Savador give positive respond with Bitcoin after accepting as legal currency transaction payment, I think many countries will regulated about Bitcoin as legal currency transaction at the future. Slowly have several countries are in the waiting list want to adopt with Bitcoin as global currency transaction.

Not sure with exact date when Bitcoin become global countries payment currency, but with development of Bitcoin I don't see any difficult thing faced by Bitcoin how to be most popular currency transaction and will adopt by many countries later, although still less country distributing for Bitcoin become legal currency, just take time for later Bitcoin will be popular transaction payment.
Countries that have regulated or are seeking to accept adoption as legal tender are increasing, but very few countries dare to accept bitcoin as legal currency in their country, two different things that must be separated in my view, because of the possibility of adoption occurring as a means of payment not as the country's currency.

There are regulations that govern the country's currency, many things must be changed if the country wants to adopt this as El Salvador did, for me it is more appropriate to use bitcoin as a means of payment, because this is more likely to be done in the near future , if a certain country starts adopting it.

There are also those cases of countries which have completely banned bitcoin and crypto: Algeria, Bangladesh, China, Egypt, Iraq, Morocco, Nepal, Qatar and Tunisia.

Besides the full legalization (legal tender) of bitcoin by El Salvador, the ban is another way to recognize bitcoin by the state, although in a negative form, as it's recognized as a threat which has to be neutralized with maximum effort and surveillance.
The ban also doesn't stop the residents there from investing in bitcoin, right!!!
The next question is whether the country has succeeded in completely banning bitcoin and crypto in its country, if it is considered a threat in the context of the intended ban, whether it is a medium of exchange and a means of transaction or a total ban.
955  Economy / Economics / Re: Have Satoshi dream failed? on: December 12, 2022, 03:17:15 AM
Well said. Also, taxations would only be done through third party wallets or banks such that if you would put an amount questionnable (have experienced that one) but there's no way they could trace all of your assets given that this industry is decentralized. Regarding satoshi's dream, who mentioned it given that we don't even know who he really is? These are just mere assumptions by most of us since this industry speaks for currency, then it is not surprising that people like us are assuming that the goal of this technology is to 'surpass' fiat currency. Unfortunately, things win't work that way. So for the meantime, we should atleast make use of this technology by means of investment.
Do you mean that taxes only apply if you make transactions in large amounts, because I see small transactions are also taxed, and even then direct deductions from the bank, whether as administrative fees or taxes, I don't know.

In some countries bitcoin is still used as an investment, has not been used as a transaction tool to purchase goods or services, which means that bitcoin still has to be exchanged for fiat currency when used to make purchases. As you said, we don't even know who he or the small group that called himself before creating bitcoin as a decentralized digital currency, that's why the mystery of bitcoin hasn't been completely solved until now.
956  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin will not become the world currency. on: December 11, 2022, 11:50:35 AM
After I figured it out, I no longer expect Bitcoin to be recognized by the state, and it doesn't need to be. It is part of a special asset, not a currency.
So I don't think Bitcoin is going to become a fiat currency.
El Salvador has recognized bitcoin, that means your question has been refuted, they even set bitcoin as the official currency in their country.

I don't think so far, or indeed this needs to be questioned, because the essence of Bitcoin is outside the shadow of the government or rather the freedom that Bitcoin has will never be in a law that is regulated and bound by fiat currency. Unless a country like El Salvador has recognized and adopted bitcoin as a legal purchase, even this adoption will continue in various other countries for now, even if it does not standardize bitcoin as an official currency.
957  Economy / Economics / Re: Have Satoshi dream failed? on: December 11, 2022, 11:29:22 AM
Satoshi's dream is still alive and It is fighting with the imposition of CBDC for compulsory use by all and the abolition of cash. It is the only way to escape the current financial system and central banks that is why they want to control Bitcoin price and with attempts to ban it.
Not like this is Satoshi Nakamoto's dream in creating bitcoin, there is no concept of Bitcoin development that was carried out by Satoshi to eliminate the function of fiat currency, I have almost never encountered this concept in the current journey of bitcoin.

Because the realm of taxation is the jurisdiction of various countries, although there are certain countries that are free from the use of taxes or smaller in number. If you consider Satoshi's dream to be a failure, then at this point we will never see bitcoin again, the tax has no direct relationship with the bitcoin link as stated by the OP. While it is true that as a rule trying to control bitcoin by trying to ban it, that also does not stop bitcoin, because the freedom that people expect is within the realm of the Bitcoin concept.

36 years old AC Milan/France striker doing amazing job after leaving Chelsea four years back even now he is playing his last few seasons but still amazing stuff from him in current season he is having 5 goals and 3 assists which is not bad at all and with this performance he can do vital role for the AC Milan which is also defending champions into Serie A and currently staying at the second spot of the league table with his current form in national team and with AC Milan most chances they will extend his contract for the two more years because his current contract is going to end at the end of 2023 season and AC Milan management is happy, so they will be done this extension without any big trouble because now they understand he can still hold things in positive way for them.
AC Milan has the opportunity to catch points from Napoli, currently they are in second place, eight points adrift of the leaders of the standings. The previous three matches in Serie A produced positive results for AC Milan, only drawing once against Cremonese.
We also believe that the opportunity to extend the striker's contract is very possible, apart from having made a good contribution and currently AC Milan is in second place in the first half of the season standings. Even though the striker is no longer young, I think he is capable of making a contribution and helping the club to be better in the second half of the season.
959  Economy / Speculation / Re: How fast will Bitcoin fall down? on: December 11, 2022, 09:26:10 AM
there are so many new altcoins that appear every year, even have functions and benefits that are far greater than bitcoin. then whether bitcoin will fall down? look at CMC, bitcoin remains at rank 1 and no one has ever taken a bitcoin position at rank 1.
I do not see the function and power of other coins that are much greater than bitcoin, every day new coins are launched even countless, but most of them are not fundamental, disappear in the market and do not find confidence in their development. So it is not the right choice to choose in any period.

While Bitcoin won all categories, so that Bitcoin was able to survive and develop until now, the presence of other coins did not affect Bitcoin on the market, because Bitcoin was created with its own uniqueness and advantages that other coins do not have. So that the fall of Bitcoin can be said to be impossible for reasons of the large number of coins that are made and therefore bitcoin is the king in Cryptocurrency today.

I did not expect that the Brazilian national team would not reach the semifinals at least, but I assumed that if the teams went out on penalties, Croatia would be able to win, which happened, after Neymar's magnificent goal, of course, there was a feeling that the team had found its game, but Croatia's quick goal had already alerted.
Croatia went through quite an impressive match, winning twice in a row on penalties, one thing I saw from the Croatian squad, they were calm and managed to press Brazil hard and their defense was very strong to stop Neymar, Raphinha and Vinicius Junior, so Brazil's game did not develop like the previous game.

Even though they were not favored against Brazil, Croatia knew what to do when they faced Brazil, pressing Neymar, Casemiro and Lucas Paqueta was enough to kill Brazil's rhythm, so they would not play openly in attack, this was Croatia's key to success during 90 minutes of normal time.
