Re: Ethereum�s Market and Technical Edge Over Bitcoin Is Becoming Undeniable
in Speculation
You can't cherry-pick a specific period where you think the asset of preference performed better than BTC, and then you start concluding that it's market edge over Bitcoin is undeniable. Where is the other half?

People did the same thing with Gold and Bitcoin. They just pick the time when Gold performed better than Bitcoin and made a different analysis of how Gold is the better-performing asset. They didn't put the whole thing into perfection, just cherry-picked a time period where it was convenient for the narrative.

Even among altcoins, ETH is not even the best-performing coin because coins like BNB and Solana are showing signs of being better. The fact that, within the last couple of weeks, ETH has performed better doesn't mean anything because when you compare them over a longer period of time, you will see that ETH is lagging behind.

Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions
in Gambling discussion
The news I've been waiting for has finally arrived.
Don't get me wrong, I don't want to denigrate Arne Slot or doubt his abilities, but the current facts prove that he is simply incapable of managing Liverpool well even with talented players.
In conclusion, I support the option of dismissing him immediately, Liverpool need to get back on track in the second half of the season with a new manager. At the very least, they need to secure a European spot at the end of the season.

Slot won't stay in Liverpool past this month. He will be fired. There is too much pressure on the club to deliver, and they need a manager who can deliver. This is not the kind of situation you give the manager time. There is no improvement whatsoever to hope for; in fact, the team keeps getting worse.
Liverpool and Slot have no excuse to be this bad because they have good players. He has good midfielders, and he bought good defenders too. The same thing with the attack. The only thing he lacks in attack is a good LW.

I support that Slot should be sacked, but they should not make the same mistake Man United did when they fired Ole. United fired Ole and hired Ten Hag who was worst. They fired Ten Hag and hired Amorim who is currently worse. They need to calm down and look for a manager that can handle the dressing room and bring out the best in the players.

Re: Economy that feel mass-produced and empty?
in Economics
The only reason life doesn't have much meaning anymore is that we neglect the actual thing that makes life have meaning, and that is people, our loved ones. People used to grow up together and still have a healthy relationship when they have their own families. They get excited to spend time together or even just see each other. The system didn't change; people just became more awful than they used to be and stopped caring for their loved ones.
The only kind of system I can blame for this is inflation. Now you need to have a reasonable amount of money to enjoy the quality of life, especially in third-world countries. Because of this, all people care about is working and money.
Quality things still exist, but they're expensive. You want a meal made by hand? A shoe made by hand? A wristwatch or ring made by hand, where you can see and feel every touch? You can get it, but it will cost you. They are expensive. That is why there is mass production, so that those who can't afford the expensive ones will be able to afford the lower quality. 

We are all statistics, is a good reason to hate the system we live. This is why some people go to arts route, because they want to be immortals. Write a book so good that, even after you die, everyone keeps talking about it, so you do not become a statistic.

My personal opinion here, I feel like that is something that is overrated. Even if people talk about you every day when you're gone, it means nothing to you when you're dead. You literary do not care.
I don't think the reason people pursue art or invention is so they can be remembered when they're dead. They just pursued what they're good at and an idea they had in their head.
I doubt the motive behind William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet was so that he wouldn't become a statistic and have his name on people's lips 400 years into the future.  Or Thomas Edison, when he and others made the light bulb. Neither did Satoshi when he created Bitcoin.
They just had an idea in their head, and they pursued it. Many people do very significant things that most people don't know about. If I ask some people to name people who contributed to the invention of wifi, many people won't know, but this is a technology that we will use for the rest of our lives.

So the motive of people who want to do things that would be used for centuries isn't so they don't become statistics, or so people will continue to talk about them. They just had a dream, an idea and pursued it at all costs.
And one way or the other, everybody is a statistic.

Re: ⚽ Premier League 2025/2026 Discussion Thread ⚽

Arsenal players are below of standard, I can't see them play like before, I don't know what happened with them, it's look they don't dominate the match like before, there is alot of open space on defence which can advantage by Villa players. Actually, they played quite evenly, both of them exchanging attacks, and offensive. I guess the match end with draw on minute 90, I don't know how Emiliano Buendia be in that position and not really attention by Arsenal defender. So with this loss, Manchester City more closer with 2 different points. Everything we are feared is drawing nearer, The City is more closer to shift 1st position.

I understand that Arsenal misses some of their players, but the players they have available should be enough to still play very well. The way they play is the problem. They press well and defend well, they don't allow the opponent to get comfortable on the ball, but they don't attack well. They put so many players in defence. In fact, the attackers defend all the time. It's normal for the wingers and striker to track back sometimes and help out the defence and midfield, but it shouldn't be all the time.

Saka and Trossard or Martinelli shouldn't always be in their own final third defending. The same with Gyokeres, the striker. When Merino is in attack, he does the same thing. They can't have a working attack when they're always focused on protecting their post. Arterta really needs to figure out a way to make his attack become efficient without diminishing his defence if they really want to win the trophy.

Re: My friend's mistake; a lesson for everyone!
in Beginners & Help
He really overcomplicated things, instead just buying a hardware wallet and storing the seedphrase (several copies of course) on a piece of paper.

I felt really bad reading the story.
I cant lie, I've never thought about USB as vulnerable. Maybe because I've never thought about using them to keep seed phrases for a year, but this is a mistake I can definitely make. I would think about the fact that the USBs may get bad after years, even when nobody is using them. 

After reading the post, I looked it up and saw that a USB drive that stay for up to 30 years if there is constant refreshing and backup, and that data can fade after a while without power. It feels bad that I'm learning this after somebody else's mistake.
Almost 7 years of holding and patience all gone. Damn!!

In this match they lost because they were not too focused on defensive marking players where in the 2 goals that Aston Villa managed to get in this match we can see in the first goal they let go too much of the Aston Villa players who moved without the ball.

This has always been Arsenal's flaw, even though it is also their greatest strength. Arsenal play a very pragmatic system of football. They focus too much on defence, and that limits the way they attack. And when they focus too much on defence, they allow the opponents time to find ways and create chances against them.
Against Villa today, Saka, Gyokores and Trossard spent more time in their own half than they did in the opponent's half. That is a very bad situation for a club that wants to win the league.

They need to start taking the game to their opponents instead of being too cautious with their defence. They can defend well and attack well, too. If you look at the numbers, most of Arsenal's goals come from set pieces. That's not impressive, and even though it works sometimes, it won't always work, and that can cost them the league.

Re: The most important factor when building a business
in Economics
I'm assuming this is after you have figured out the product or service to render. Because it would be very difficult to know your target audience if you don't know a service or product to offer yet. I'm saying this because you're talking about the target audience like it's the first thing you should consider. There's no target audience without a product or service.

After you have figured out the target audience, what you need to do is how to market to that audience. I keep telling people not to play with marketing and promotion of their business. It's one of the things that can make or break your business. It's no secret why big brands spend a lot of marketing. If big brands that are already recognised can market their product or service that much, how much more you that is a small scale business. Make use of all of the online rolls for marketing and marketing your business properly, no matter how good you think your product is.

Re: Has any of you experienced this?
in Gambling discussion
Some casinos may do this on purpose because it may just be a marketing strategy, but most of the time, the player didn't read the terms of the bonus. Some have a minimum deposit, and other terms. Some give the bonus based on the amount of the first deposit, so the smaller the amount, the smaller the bonus, and the higher the amount, the higher the bonus.
I think you should message the customer service team and find out what is wrong. They might look into it and rectify the matter, or they might give you a reason why you didn't get the bonus. If it's a bullshit reason, I suggest you be careful with that casino.
