Re: Can Bitcoin Mining Become a Decentralized Energy Grid?
I don't think the miners can exactly decentralize the energy grid but they have definitely helped grow the grid on many occasions, some of which were actually very positive. For example a couple of years ago I read something about our government working with the miners to work on infrastructure to use the Gas Flare (wasted gas produced during gas and oil extraction) to generate electricity. Something that led to establishing massive projects to catch and use a whopping 20 million cubic meter flare gas (700 million cubic feet) on a daily basis.
Bitcoin miners can operate more concentrative or more decentralized and this Bitcoin miners and mining hashrate distribution status are not static, but very dynamic and change over time. It depends on national policies that support Bitcoin mining or against Bitcoin mining with a China crack down on Bitcoin mining in 2021 and the Great Hashrate Migration after that to other countries are very good examples.Generally, it's fortunately that Bitcoin hashrate has become bigger over time with better Bitcoin adoption to make Bitcoin safer and more profitable for investors and miners. Hence, there are more new Bitcoin mining farms that spread over the world and increase Bitcoin hashrate decentralization, then Bitcoin node decentralization as well.
It can have some impacts on electricity grid as Bitcoin mining farms will set up their necessary infrastructures for mining.
Those that are stated that Inter Milan is a bad team, I think they just hate the team entirely. Because when we come to talk about the big teams in the Italian league, they are among the best teams that have good squads. We all know that they are not the ones—the team that breaks victory by winning the first game with the highest goals—but what I’m trying to say is that this season they’ve begun with good and standard performances.
I believed that nobody can reasonably consider Inter Milan as a bad team after they joined two UEFA Champions League final matches within only three latest seasons, and they won two Scudetto in two following seasons 2020–21, 2023–24 as well as competed tightly for this title in other recent seasons.There is only uncertainty about performances of Inter Milan that comes from their young and inexperienced head coach, Cristian Chivu. From a first match, they won big and it's their first step to get rid of this concern but surely they will have to work hard together in many matches during this season win titles. Chivu is a young coach but as a player in the past, he proved his smartness that can be helpful for his coach career too.
This season, a lot of teams look great, so there is no real clear advantage on any team. I understand oddmakers do say Napoli because they won last year and then got some great players. But, the truth is that there are many great teams this season and anything could happen.
We should consider this as a good way to start, because it is going to allow us to not have any big changes, it's going to be pretty much the same situation to start. Of course it is not going to be crazy to handle all this, because when betting, we are going to have hard time as well. When there are so many great teams, it is not easy to know which one will win, and which one will be bad. It's just not reality, and we will have hard time with it.
There are several big clubs that began this season well with winnings and they are taking advantage to lead the league in Scudetto competition. While other big clubs can come back and current top clubs might have crisis later so the Scudetto competition only will become clearer after one-third or a half of season. We will have to wait for performances of many big clubs in several coming months in order to have better overview on the title race.We should consider this as a good way to start, because it is going to allow us to not have any big changes, it's going to be pretty much the same situation to start.

In reality, Newcastle are simply going through an adjustment period with new players and a long break after the league season ended.
So, Eddie Howe shouldn't have any difficulty getting Newcastle back on track and regaining a better position.
Previous losses and draws are understandable, but Newcastle fans are hoping Newcastle will take all three points in their next match.
They have a chaotic summer transfer season with still unknown future of Isak who is their main striker and goal scorer. Newcastle United will need to compete with top four like Liverpool, Manchester City, Arsenal, and Chelsea as well as other strong competitors like Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa, perhaps Manchester United in this season.So, Eddie Howe shouldn't have any difficulty getting Newcastle back on track and regaining a better position.
Previous losses and draws are understandable, but Newcastle fans are hoping Newcastle will take all three points in their next match.
They won't feel happy at the season ending if they can not finish it in top four but surely this is not an easy target to achieve. Competitiveness with other clubs is very high and Newcastle United with their experience and participation in top four race latest seasons truly know about this challenge.
Newcastle did not start this season well, they did not win a match in the first two matches of the season and I think that is very bad even though their defeat to Liverpool is a natural thing because it is realistic when we look at the overall strength of both teams and I will not deny that Liverpool is better and on the other hand Newcastle also deserves appreciation, they played very persistently, it was just a little unlucky because they conceded in the final minutes of the match.
They still have time and their target is top four, not a Premier League title so they can get a position in top four while dropping more points than a club that want to become a league champion. Anyway no wins after first two matches are not good results and will cause more difficulty in remaining matches of the season. Newcastle United played somewhat impressively in UEFA Champions League three seasons ago and they actually want to participate it again in a next season.This is not a good start for Atletico Madrid after following a draw and one defeat against the two previous matches.
The defeat from of Espanyol was very unfortunate because Atletico Madrid should be able to get three full points in the match and the draw they lived when facing Elche also gave a little disappointment.
Elche was able to appear much better because they managed to get two points so far despite facing a much stronger opponent.
And vice versa Espanyol's appearance, which has so far been much better because it has achieved a draw and won in the previous two matches.
They have had very bad start in this season but I believe that they will recover from this mini crisis and return to top positions later. Even without two early bad matches, Atletico Madrid in my opinion nearly can not compete for La Liga title with Barcelona and Real Madrid. These bad early matches make their race for a third or fourth position more difficult but I believe they will get it at the season ending.The defeat from of Espanyol was very unfortunate because Atletico Madrid should be able to get three full points in the match and the draw they lived when facing Elche also gave a little disappointment.
Elche was able to appear much better because they managed to get two points so far despite facing a much stronger opponent.

They started the season badly. There are still many matches left and Atletico Madrid will have many opportunities to improve. Since the end of last season, I have been looking at Diego Simeone with a bit of a bad feeling because his focus on the team is perhaps a little low. The players were not mentally prepared to do better.
Simeone is an experienced manager and I hope he will be able to get the team back on a winning streak by working harder.
Diego Simeone has been in Atletico Madrid in many years and he joined them when they were in big crisis, gradually built up their squad and gained success in La Liga and Champions League. He has proven his management capability through many hard times in the club and this season won't beat him down. Anyway, whatever happens in this season, he has been already marked in Atletico Madrid history as one of their most successful and legendary head coaches.Simeone is an experienced manager and I hope he will be able to get the team back on a winning streak by working harder.
It is a chain reaction that triggers the volatility of Bitcoin. Usage, price, and demand is interlinked with each other and react to the supply, which then triggers the fluctuation of the market. The Bitcoin market won't operate if one of these is missing. So it is natural to see volatility if the market is actively operating since supply and demand never stop balancing each other in every transaction.
As the Bitcoin price increases, the Bitcoin usage will be empowered, thus this utility will increase the demand for Bitcoin. Then, with the demand, it will react to the supply dictating the price changes in the market, thus causing price fluctuation or volatility.

I thought that the reason why people were plagiarizing in the past was because of the lack of research tools and platform. Now that even google has integrated AI, research shouldn't be difficult and the rate of plagiarism is supposed to reduce drastically.
Why is there still plagiarism?
Currently, there is only an unofficial rule on plagiarism and no rule about AI contents but if you think deeply, using AI-generated contents is similar to plagiarism. You can see the dictionary definition of Plagiarism and see how AI-generated content usage fits with plagiarism.Why is there still plagiarism?

Re: 🏆 If You're New to Crypto Here's Some Stuff I Wish Someone Told Me Early On
- Don’t leave coins sitting on exchanges
Not Your Keys, Not Your Coins If your crypto is sitting on an exchange and you don’t control the private keys you don’t really own it !!!!!!
Dont get fooled from Earn Daily Rewards or Airdrops that are worth cents
Seriously if the exchange goes down gets hacked, or decides to “freeze withdrawals” your coins are toast
THIS HAS HAPPEN MANY TIMES ON THE PAST IT CAN HAPPEN TOMORROW TOO
Centralized exchanges are similar to centralized online platforms which are not good to store your bitcoin. You must store your bitcoin in non custodial (self custodial) wallets as with them, you will have private keys that means you have control of your bitcoins. In addition, if possible, choose open source wallets to use as it is safer than close source wallets because you and community including technical guys can not reproduce that wallet and test it from source code.Not Your Keys, Not Your Coins If your crypto is sitting on an exchange and you don’t control the private keys you don’t really own it !!!!!!

Bitcoin is the "real money" itself and what you refer to as real money is not even money, it is fiat "currency". As a reminder the difference between money and currency is that currency is a medium of exchange while money is a currency that is also store of value.
Fiats are currencies because they are not store of value, they are only medium of exchange. And because bitcoin is a medium of exchange with a capped supply, it can be a store of value which makes it money.
Fiat currencies are created by governments and central banks that use all resources they have, lies they can say, for defending useless fiat currencies and convining people in upcoming solutions of governments and central banks for fixing issues of inflation and declining purchasing power while in many centuries, they have failed to do all those things.Fiats are currencies because they are not store of value, they are only medium of exchange. And because bitcoin is a medium of exchange with a capped supply, it can be a store of value which makes it money.
I don't believe governments and central banks will succeed in the future and my belief is they will only make things and problems worse and worse over time.
Whatever words they use to call their fiat currencies as "Real Money", I don't mind after I knew of their chronic problems that can not be solved, and I realized high value, potentiality and the bullish future of Bitcoin.
The bullish case for Bitcoin is very opposite with the dump future of fiat currencies.

Who else noticed that while Bruno Fernandes went to take the penalty, Ruben Amorim bent his face down and became fixated on his shoes more than what was going on on the pitch? It seemed funny, like he wasn't so confident in his players and their ability to deliver. I tell you, Ruben would have more eyes on him now that it's a fresh season and even with the players that have been signed, there would be lots of expectations.
One loss and a draw in two games and that has never been a good record. I'm not going to lie and say that the way Man UTD are playing now isn't more improved than that of last season because we're seeing it. The connection between Bryan Mbuemo and Matheus Cunha is electric and the way I see it, it won't be long before either of them records their first goal for the club.
Ruben Amorim already faced with a lot of pressure and critics in the last season and after this summer and a defeat in a first match, pressure starts to occur again so he knows that he must lead Manchester United back to winning again. Good performance like they did had in a first match with Arsenal is not enough, results are most important in the end and with this latest draw, they did not get a best result as they wanted.One loss and a draw in two games and that has never been a good record.

Bruno Fernandez has very good successful rate at penalty spots but he can not succeed with all penalties and yesterday he unfortunately failed. The reaction of Ruben Amorim is understandable as he knew only three points and help him and his players reduced pressure and critics.
Re: Reasons to use only Discretionary Income for Bitcoin investment.
Normally as a newbie who is just getting started with bitcoin you must panic at first stage which is normal, but The truth is when you accumulate bitcoin with your leftover money (discretionary income) you will feel more relaxed and there will be less panic in your bitcoin investment journey as a newbie, so newbies should take note of this for smooth running of their bitcoin investment and to avoid selling of their bitcoin investment at early stage of accumulation. Just as we all know bitcoin is a volatile asset it can fluctuate dramatically, so when you accumulate it with the money you are comfortable losing it will help you more to hold your bitcoin investment for longer term, let's say 4 to 10 years or more to enable you make reasonable profit in return.
You can use your fund for investment and it's hard to control your emotion if you don't have proper research, learning and knowledge about Bitcoin from technical fundamentals to its market history. With whatever kind of investment capital, even you said it is from discretionary income, your emotion can be uncertain and you will be easily panic if you lack of knowledge and experience in this market.Newbies need to learn first before investing, then they need a lot of time for experience in the market in order to become non-affected by market volatility as well as FUD attacks in the market over time.
Re: What will happen if bitcoin transactions became anonymous like Monero tomorrow?
What will happen if bitcoin transactions became anonymous like Monero tomorrow? Will it increase the demand of bitcoin even more in the world ? Or will it have negative effect like government making restrictions on bitcoin ?
Bitcoin blockchain was not designed for this purpose and you can not erase all transaction history by any technical and protocol upgrades. If privacy and anonymity was lost in the past from your practice with wallets, UTXOs, on-chain transactions, you were done with your broken privacy and anonymity.The same with Bitcoin blockchain while there is one more important thing. Do you think that Bitcoin users want this blockchain to become one similarly to Monero blockchain?
I guess they don't want that big change as it will put Bitcoin blockchain under more severe regulations and restrictions from governments globally.
After Bcash, most people realized these forks were all just scams and nobody wanted to hold them. Each new fork had diminishing returns and eventually there wasn’t enough of an incentive to create more of them. It was more profitable to launch a new coin on Ethereum. As long as you pretended to have some kind of novel product attached to your token, you could raise millions of dollars in an ICO.
Bcash is a classic Bitcoin fork scam ever in history while there are hundreds of Bitcoin forks (altcoins) as scam.There has been 667 forks from bitcoin (altcoins), 3 this month.
How Many Bitcoin Forks Are There? You will be surprised!!!
Bitcoin Cash can be considered as a most successful Bitcoin fork but it is scam as all other forks.
This is how the BCash scam team did.
Has Bitcoin.com stopped presenting Bitcoin Cash as the real Bitcoin?

Well deserved another win by Arsenal. This is how the Gunners should play. Arsenal picked up right where they left off. Timber's goal and assist, Saka's finishing, Gyökeres getting on the scoresheet twice, their effectiveness on corners, 15-year-old Dowman, today everything was perfect for Arsenal. The team looks much better this season. Hopefully they keep it up. Those underestimating Leeds United should follow the league closely because they'll cause problems for big teams.
These goals actually are very helpful for Gyökeres to get rid of pressure on his shoulders or at least reduce it considerably. It will help him performing next matches for Arsenal more naturally and with less pressure. Surely he did not join Arsenal without ambitious targets for himself and he will try to perform as best as possible, to contribute his best for the club as well as achieving as best results as possible in this season.The score is good but two injuries to key players is too much, if it continues like this then Arsenal will have no players left after 10 rounds. It is not yet clear how long Saka and Odegaard are out, it seems that they can quickly recover but still the situation is dangerous. And I would not pay attention to the big score, in fact, one of the top clubs of the Premier League played against a club from the Championship. The difference in class is too big, this is the expected score for such a confrontation.
Saka and Odegaard are very important for Arsenal and missing one of these key players is already big problem for them. Missing both key players is terrible for Arsenal but hopefull at early weeks of season, when all players are good in fitness and no exhaustion, Arsenal will be able to cover these absences well enough. They have had two good first matches in Premier League but from their experience in Premier League three latest seasons, I believe they are well aware that they can not win Premier League title with two wins or some wins or just a good result streak.Bruno Fernandez contribution was superb last season, without him United wouldn't have made it to the finals in UEL. I know that United wouldn't sell him out despite the fact that his name was in the offloading list. He is still very useful in the club and plays with passion. He is the only player that was putting his best to make sure that the club moves forward in recent times.
Bruno Fernandez has made a lot of good contributions for Manchester United but he has played for this club in wrong time. No matter how many goals, assists, and key passes he has contributed for the club, he has failed to succeed with them. No titltes, and no solid position in top four of Premier League, no fair recognition from Manchester United fans. However, he has done what he can do best and has nothing to feel regretful from what he has shown so far for the club.He is a very good player and I would say that he is in his prime, but things can be very tough if we look at them from another perspective , they haven't won anything, they haven't been able to do anything for many seasons, they are in the toughest league of all, or it is considered that it continues like this, they can't stay in such high positions any longer , they are looking for a prolonged relegation, that must change.
His prime does not coincide with golden era of Manchester United but with one of worst era in their club history especially after Sir Alex Ferguson era. Last summer, many rumor that Manchester United considered to sell him for money and also for rebuilding their squad. Eventually they did not sell him, and the player decided to stay with the club too.Ruben Amorim and his players shown some good signals in a first match of season with Arsenal so hopefully they can turn early positive signals to good performances and achieve excellent results in coming matches.
Re: Want to be an expert in technical and development section
Bitcoin is more about economics because it's what people discuss the most as they lack knowledge about many things. To institutional investor, they know Bitcoin as digital gold with limited supply that has demand, which makes the price to increase with time, that's all they discussed every day but if you look at the technical aspect of Bitcoin, you will literally want to run mad. I don't believe now Satoshi was able to do these things and make Bitcoin a successful asset, should call him alien than regular human
Bitcoin is created by Satoshi Nakamoto to solve many problems that are more than pure economic issues and it also solved many technical challenges that were failed to solve by many founders of other projects before Bitcoin.There are bunches of projects created before Bitcoin, and you can learn about with Bitcoin prehistory topic. Satoshi Nakamoto solved this challenge so well by his outstanding knowledge in economy and technology as well as cryptography. The Bitcoin founder does not only create a successful project, but he also makes a great legacy which initiates an entirely new industry, blockchain industry, that has changed the world in many aspects.
One day banks will accept Bitcoin as medium of exchange and accept deposits from bitcoiners. As soon as the world powers accept it as medium of exchange.
It is wish and a wanted option for some people but with me, I don't want such convenient services from banks. With my time spent for learning about Bitcoin and my experience, I can have my own bank that is called as Bitcoin bank without need to use any other banks.Why do I have to wish that commercial banks will provide such services while with them, I don't have any full control of my fund and my bitcoins?
Storing fund and let it under control by other parties is super risky and it is sort of unsmart practice especially we have another better solution that is accessible by everyone as it is open source and free.
Reminder: do not keep your money in online accounts.
Using banks and in the future, people willl face with bank runs then lose their money.
We have all been watching how Real Madrid is playing for a while now. If they continue to play like this, then maybe Real Madrid will be eliminated long ago this season. Madrid did very well last season and they were in great form. But now, looking at Madrid's situation for a few days, it seems that they will not be able to do anything good this season and they will be eliminated long ago. Now is the time for Madrid to sort out their team. If Madrid does not find their weaknesses, then maybe a lot of bad things are coming for them. So Madrid needs to find out where the flaws in their team are and solve them very soon.
Real Madrid with many star players will get well and return to win track soon but to win La Liga title against a very strong and competitive competitor like Barcelona with very good consistent quality performances, Real Madrid will need more than one or several wins as well as minimize their bad matches and bad results as best as possible.Xabi Alonso still need more time for training his players in order to help them get acquainted with his tactical philosophy and time is necessary for the coach to understand his players more so that he can use his players at positions and roles which possibly maximizes player performances and contributions for Real Madrid.
Players who propels the managers tactics is key and the same goes with manager being flexible with his tactics to accommodate the available players in the squad. Well, Osasuna defence was something else and that penalty awarded to Kylian Mbappe shouldn't have been a foul or penalty. He was seen stepping on the defender. If this is how they intend playing, Barcelona or Atletico Madrid will win the league by January. 
Departures and retirement of Cristiano Ronaldo, Benzema, Bale, Casemiro, Kroos and Modric are like parts of an official ending announcement of Real Madrid's golden era in modern time. Several seasons later, they still managed to win Champions League and La Liga with Rodrygo, Vinicius, Valverde and still had Kroos in their club but the last season shown many problems in their squad.They failed to replace Toni Kroos, Modric could not contribute too much, while the super star player Mbappe only performed well individually but at a team level, his appearance in the club actually created many issues. It seems Xabi Alonso could not resolve those headache problems during the summer and in the first match of season. Mbappe and Vinicius will continue to be main causes of Real Madrid problems in balance between attacking and defense in this season.
A new manager, I mean one who worked with him years back with Juventus and also saw him leaving the club. I bet he must have communicated properly to him about his desire of not working with him yet again. His move to Como happened already weeks back but then, I bring you good tidings, Ac Milan are currently having advanced discussion with Bayern Leverkusen for Victor Boniface. I love that deal, I want to see it happening.
AC Milan are trying to improve their squad in this summer with ambition to return to top four and if they can get Boniface from Bayer Leverkusen, their preparation for this season will become so much better. This player was lightened up a lot by Xabi Alonso in three latest seasons and perhaps the departure of Xabi Alonso gives Boniface reasons to leave the club too.AC Milan even with big troubles last season, are still a very big club with successful tradition and they can return to world class level anytime. Moving to AC Milan and exploring a new league like Serie A look to be interesting adventure for Boniface.
Anyone knows why AC Milan drop again Morata for this season? I mean they dont have a better striker than him, Gimenez is not close to him at all, so why they send him to COMO for this season when they have him for free coming back from the loan on turkish soil.
Also i dont understand why a loan, if you dont want him, sell him to arab world and have a big pay.
Morata did not feel happy at AC Milan and he decided to leave, it's not big issue from AC Milan but from the player. Furthermore, Morata did not actually perform too well for AC Milan and the clubd did not feel need of holding him in the club at all cost.Also i dont understand why a loan, if you dont want him, sell him to arab world and have a big pay.
