Re: Bitcoin: Will ETFs Make History Again – or Become History?
by
Catenaccio
on 14/07/2025, 08:15:45 UTC
In 2023, something historic happened on the US stock exchange: the launch of an ETF backed by Bitcoin. The US regulator had previously rejected numerous applications from dozens of investment companies but changed its mind once BlackRock filed its own application.
The entity changed the game is Grayscale with their win in a lawsuit against SEC. BlackRock saw this as a start of something big and they are smart as well as experienced enough to take advantage of this milestone for their Bitcoin Spot ETF application. The historic flow of Bitcoin Spot ETF success is like this and it has great contribution of Grayscale.

The OP's question is like will Bitcoin make history or become history. It does not mean anything as Bitcoin is here for long existence and won't disappear to anywhere so will be Bitcoin Spot ETFs.

Ten Hag was looking for a team to prove himself, and Leverkusen was one of the best options. Luckily, Leverkusen gave him that opportunity. Now, with their transfers, they'll be looking to improve their league standings against Bayern Munich. Ten Hag, who will be trying to prove himself, must fill Xabi's void in the best way possible and make sure the fans don't miss him. Several players have left the team, and the resulting void needs to be filled in the best possible way.
Ten Hag joined Manchester United and Bayer Leverkusen at different times and situations of those clubs. He joined Mnachester United when they were in a crisis and he failed to help them. While he signed a contract with Bayer Leverkusen after this club had two successful seasons with Xabi Alonso and a task of Ten Hag is maintaining good performances for the club after Xabi Alonso era.

This club was not in any crisis like Manchester United but with many star players leaving the club like Wirtz, Tah and Frimpong, even more to leave in last weeks of summer transfer market, Ten Hag will have to deal with a lot of challenge there.

Don't trade because you have such money already available, trade because you trust your trading skills and strategies and have backtest it to have worked many times in live trades. Trading isn't as easy as some social media platforms makes it sound. Do your research!
Most traders lose money in the market rather than getting more money as profit so if you don't consider yourself as a good trader and are able to get profit in long term (remember what means is long term profit, not short term profit), you should never trade.

Moreover, belief or confidence is not enough and you must be confident about your trading capability only if you base on your trading record and as emphasized, long term trading record. If your record shows that you did not get profit in long term and only get loss, don't try trading.

The people who benefit are those who purchased large amounts of Bitcoin at a low price but have consistently held it to date, thus indirectly benefiting from the increase in Bitcoin's price. Meanwhile, the people who are harmed are those who disposed of Bitcoin more quickly after purchasing it, perhaps due to panic after seeing false news about Bitcoin. As for the impact on Bitcoin adoption in the key sectors you mentioned, such as banks, governments, and corporations, this depends heavily on their level of trust in Bitcoin, as those who believe in Bitcoin will routinely buy it without any fear.
With either large or small investment capital to start, the success of investors and their investments is shown in ROIs. You can see the fact here, that different investors with different capital (big or small) can have same ROIs if they have same or nearly similar average entry prices.

I disagree to say that two investors with same 100% ROI from their Bitcoin investments, can be classified as better or worse investors only because of their profit is bigger or smaller as consequence of their initial investment capital. They are same successful investors and their actual profit figures are different only by their available fund for starting. Having smaller capital to start does not make you as a worse investor than another investor that has bigger fund for beginning.

Re: How do people when crypto is dropping?

Yes, if you want to trade, you can often take advantage of the decline. For example, during the decline, you bought Bitcoin at a low price and when the price of Bitcoin increases, you can sell it. If you want to become a trader, you have to learn a lot, which may take you about 2 to 3 years to learn. There is a lot of risk in trading. Very few people have been successful in trading, and the risk of losing your money in trading is very high.
Price can bounce or recover after a fall but it can fall deeper and this makes trading is very dangerous for traders. People can lose money by buy high, sell low with FOMO but they can also lose money by buying in dips and panic sell in deeper falls.

Traders need not only money but some others like knowledge, experience, discipline and very strong mentality to make sure they know what they are doing in the market, and how they control their emotion, decisions for entries and exits, buying and selling. They must prepare their finance very well, and make sure they don't have pressure of always being active in trading for earning money in order to use it for spendings in life.

As it stand now, PSG is no longer the team people thought they are in the past which anyhow team will not defeat PSG easily to embrace victory. Yes, Arsenal struggled to defeated PSG in the first leg last tournament that made PSG to study their tactics to eliminated Arsenal in the second leg to stand as a team to embraced the UEFA champion league title, and there is a tension in the camp of Chelsea right now because they must prepare well to challenge PSG in the FIFA club world cup final today, if Chelsea can defeat PSG to embrace the title, it mean there are teams in the premier League to give PSG tough time.
They shown very surprising and considerable improvement in the last season and they have been maintaining it in FIFA Club World Cup this summer. Winning UEFA Champions League title last season surely increased their confidence a lot and it will help them playing in a next season with a pride of champion. There is no need of being humble and feeling like they are not quality and competitive enough in Champions League. All those things can make a more powerful and dangerous PSG in a next season and even several seasons in future with many young players they have now.

From his previous experience In the Italian league the new job won't be a very tough one but he'll still put in much effort to try take Fiorentina to the top 4. Seems like a difficult task but the top 5 or 6 is very possible. Anyways if Fiorentina can give him some good signings better prospects that would suit his agenda then Fiorentina would compete for the top 4 effortlessly.
To suceed with a club, it needs to have many conditions from the head coach quality of management, experience and quality of players as well as their performances. There are other things like how medical team can help players maintain good fitness through a long season. In addition, it needs to have an unofficial support from their competitors in the same league as your team can play well, even better than a past season but if many competitors play better than your team, it's hard to achieve as high rank as your team aim at.

Pioli with his coach career and success in AC Milan is undoubtedly a very good head coach and he is able to help Fiorentina getting high rank in Serie A next season. However, to achieve high rank in the league, they have to beat many competitors and it's not easy for Pioli and his players.

Re: What do you do with a good trading strategy?

on 12/07/2025, 04:47:37 UTC
What do you do to a trading strategy that already earns you a good percentage in profit. do you still try improving on it to ensure it does not fail? or do you let it be until it starts showing signs of failure?

It is a simple question but I think answers and opinions will be different considering that some traders may fear further tampering with the strategy, others will no want to wait until it fails, what is your style?
All trading strategies have failed times when market beat trading strategies so traders must have proper risk and trading capital management. They must avoid to strongly believe in any trading strategy and feel like it is unnecessary to use some weapons in trading like stop loss order or stop limit order. Such orders are helpful to defend their initial trading capital which can maintain capital of traders in long term.

It is very important to have prevention and risk management when you already know that there is no perfect trading strategy that can works well forever.

Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024

CR7's impact on the Saudi League is huge, that cannot be denied. In fact, they begged him to re-sign with Al Nassr. I'm sure many of us here follow the Arab League just because he's there and many other famous players. If CR7 had left the Saudi League, it would be a fact that they wouldn't have paid as much attention to him as they do now.
His contributions for Al Nassr and Saudi Professional League is huge in expansion to other nations including European nations that have many fans of Cristinao Ronaldo or knew him well after about two decades of his career in some biggest leagues in Europe.

When Cristiano moved to Saudi Professional League, may European people started to follow this league and Al Nassr, watch full matches or match highlights. These contributions are huge and undeniable but in Saudi Arabia only, Cristiano Ronaldo failed to make considerae changes because locals mostly don't care about football.

Is this an official Telegram account affiliated with BC.game? Or one of those?

I've seen it spamming messages on some groups. While I'm sure that it wasn't affiliated with BC.game, since as far as I know, their Telegram channel is a notification group plus local groups, I just want to verify it here.

The account has a subscription in Telegram Premium and has a premium badge on its display name, making it look legit.
It is easily to know whether it is an official account or not.

Visit BC.Game website, and look at a bottom right, you will see "Join Our Global Community". You will see some icons including Telegram icon that has a link as https://t.me/bcgamewin

Getting a telegram premium badge is actually not that expensive, because with just mere below $5 you could get this Telegram premium badge for a month
An official account should show (not hide) the telegram username (handle), not hide like what is shown in the screenshot. Scammers can impersonate official accounts by hiding Telegram usernames (handles) but copying and pasting an official username into Bio area on scam Telegram accounts.

Change head coach unfortunately will change the games of Bayern Leverkusen for next season regarding tactician under Xabi Alonso era will difference tactician from Erik ten Hag. Bayern Leverkusen have good side after defending several main players last season and only sell few players only although Erik ten Hag must find right replacement for several position leaving by Jonathan Tah, Florian Wirtz and Jeremie Frimpong.
Amazing success two seasons ago is really hard to repeat especially with a club that does not win titles regularly like Bayer Leverkusen. We saw how they struggled in the last season with Xabi Alonso and now he is no longer there with them. Change at a head coach position leads to tactical changes which are so uncertain for any club, not only Bayer Leverkusen.

Additionally, Bayer Leverkusen lost not only Tah, Wirtz but also Frimpong who are all important for their defense and attacking system. Even if Bayer Leverkusen still have Xabi Alonso for a next season, they will still severely struggle to maintain their runner-up position in Bundesliga, not mention about winning the league title.

Quote
Bit difficult for Erik ten Hag how three players above become important part for Leverkusen under Alonso era and so far Leverkusen not announce about new players for filling that position. Another bad side of Bundesliga easily selling their main players to rival team such as did by Dortmund, Bayern Leverkusen when selling their player to Bayern Munich.
Ten Hag will deal with all those challenges but looking at how he did very bad management in Manchester United, I lack of belief in his management for Bayer Leverkusen. With strong domination of Bayern Munich in Bundesliga, it's almost impossible for Ten Hag to win the trophy with his new club.

I always say throughout these years, Manchester United failed to have a good attack and defence line.
Since you were talking about Hojlund, let's remember how pissed Cristiano Ronaldo was in his position with the team, he had to leave his old club, United of course where he was a hero there, and find another club to start good. Hojlund isn't any lucky than CR7, he failed and will continue most likely. He has to get out and restart elsewhere. It is as simple as that. Many players find their perfect balance in other teams like Osimhen, Lukaku...
Cristiano Ronaldo played well for Manchester United but they perhaps created pressure and forced him to leave by seeing his playing style does not contribute too good things for the team in general. It can be a good assessment on Cristiano Ronaldo's contribution for their club but they failed to replace Cristiano Ronaldo. Seasons later, they still did not find any good striker who can score goals regularly for them like Cristiano.

This made their decision and bad treatment on Cristiano Ronaldo are like a massive failure and their club are still in a big crisis, not only at a striker position, but the other positions. Ruben Amorim will face with a lot of tasks and pressure to do well in a new season with his mission of rescuing Manchester United.

Re: Are physical crypto coins ever completely safe?

on 10/07/2025, 21:52:00 UTC
Some pictures I have seen of physical crypto coins are very beautiful and might make great items to keep a long time. Are they ever really safe? Even if they use the most secure possible way to hide/protect the private key doesn't the coin creator, who funded the address, have knowledge of that key? How would the maker ever be able to hide that valuable key - inside the coin - without being the first person to know exactly what it is?
It depends on the companies and producers of collectible coins. If they are not trusted and did set up some thing for scam exit, to claim your private keys later, it's not completely safe.

If any founder of collectible coins do things like Yog, it's surely not safe for any buyers and collectors.

Antony situation is kind of difficult to explain but he has really improve in all sense of responsibility as a player. Joining Real Betis was the best for him because his old self is back and looking very great once again. I don’t think he’ll be going back to Manchester United even after seeing an improved performance from him, he’ll likely end up in Real Betis and continue his best form there. I really admire the player and how he plays for this team. Some players just need a new place to showcase themselves better and maybe the Manchester United environment was not the best for him that time.
It looks like at Real Betis, Antony found happiness when playing, and got his confidence back. With any player, these conditions are basic but very important for their performances. It is what we saw in a last half of past season but I am still unsure why it happened. Antony joined Betis in a loan transfer and almost immediately shown as a word class player while his performances in Manchester United over 2 seasons are only massive disappointed.

Yeah, his improved at least his happy and his always playing well to have even caught the interest of few teams. I think Real Betis suits him better than his previous team Manchester United. Although, his still a Manchester United player only on loan at Spain currently. I feel like the club should buy him but I'm not sure if they can because of how much Manchester United would want for his purchase. Well if the new coach wants to use him he can just be recalled after all his loan spell was for a season. But personally, I think he shouldn't go back to Manchester United, that club isn't suitable for him. It's just my opinion though.
It can be a team or a league that suits Antony better. At least Antony played better at Real Betis and it's good improvement for himself after two disappointed seasons with Manchester United. It can help him to gain confidence again and rescue his own career before it is too late. Real Betis and Antony can feel very happy with each other but it's challenging for Real Betis to officially buy Antony. Barriers are from salary demand of Antony and transfer price asked by Manchester United. It's only partially up to Antony like whether he is ready to cut down his high salary as his proactively action for joining Real Betis.

How is it really free and decentralized if most exchanges or brokers ask for your real lnfo like some kind of official lD or documents just to get some Bitcoin?
If you join a centralized platform, and it request KYC, you have to do it.
If you dislike KYC and value your privacy, you can choose decentralized exchanges for using.

If you want more privacy, you can trade in person and avoid connections with banks and bank transfer.

Do you see that privacy and anonymity you get, depends on not only Bitcoin blockchain, wallet and also how you practice your purchase and sale.

One month left before premier league season 2025/26 begin, Manchester United still difficult for signing new player and just get success signing one player only, in other side have rumor Manchester United will sell Marcus Rashford, Garnacho and several top players without signing any new players for replacing any players will sell. Looking the rival teams, most of them have signed several top players such as Liverpool and Manchester City have spending more than billion euro,  I don't know what happen with Manchester United financial after difficulty signing top players however last season they have poorly performance by finish at 15th standings position.
They are no longer attractive with many star players who need money but also chances to join Champions League. With quality and competitiveness of Manchester United now, they will not be eligible for Champions League too soon in near future. Star players if have other clubs to choose, they will not join Manchester United and struggle to have opportunity of playing in UEFA Conference League or Europa League.

It's not a dreaming club for any star player while as said there are enough good offers from better clubs for star players. Manchester United must buy players who can improve their quality, not only star players and avoid overspending on transfer market like what they have done since retirement of Sir Alex Ferguson.

You guys have started again with this your day dreaming, how can you be dreaming under the hot sun? When exactly will you guys end this your Netflix movies on Arsenal? Arsenal cannot win the league and it's too obvious for even the blind to see. How I wish Arsenal can actually purchase all the players both the club and fans wants let's see how it will be for them. Even dead Manchester United will revive and still win the league before Arsenal, lol.
The summer transfer season is still going and there are perhaps more negotiations and transfers completed by Arsenal in coming weeks. They are heading towards a season with a big task of beating many competitors and lifting Premier League trophy after many years. Arteta has done his management well so far, changed Arsenal from a weak team to a very competitive one, but he and Arsenal need a title to mark his management in Arsenal as a successful era for the club and his coach career.

Arsenal got some really big transfers in this window and i think they picked the right ones this time. The only question is if they are all able to play good with each other if they start well they can try and attack the title. But in the premier league there are so many good teams that honestly you cannot know if they will win the title. But i think they are on a good road this season to try and surprise everyone
Arsenal are very actively with player transfers in this summer and it's signal of their ambitious and well preparation for a new season. It seems after three seasons finishing as a runner-up, Arsenal no longer want to end a next season similarly and want to upgrade it to a title in Premier League. They are seriously improving their squad through this summer transfer and are going to aim at better performances with good enhancements from new players.
