It's obvious your friend are a trader.

Becoming a trader not require a huge amount of money, but living by just solely depend on Bitcoin investment will require huge amount of money.

It's risky to invest in one asset, but I did that and after 5 years, it doesn't look risky. But, you can't solely live by depend on Bitcoin, your active income is the most important thing. So, try to make your active income higher instead of thinking about investment.

It seems that Xabi is not satisfied with the players he currently has. Especially the current condition of the center players because they were left behind by Beligham who had shoulder surgery. Xabi still sees many shortcomings in his young players. I think this makes a lot of rumors he still wants to buy a midfielder. One of his targets is Man City midfielder Rodri. Real Madrid are ready to bid £100 million to sign the Manchester City star. Although Rodri's condition last season rested a lot due to injury and made Man City not get good achievements.
Nope, it's not because Bellingham absent, but Real Madrid need someone who can control the flow.

They have no one player can play in this role, Kross and Modric already left. Real Madrid is keep changing their player to play in this role, usually Valverde fill this position. They have to sign a new player because Valverde is better to play in other position.

100 Million Euros is still too cheap, if they can bid Enzo for 150 Million Euros, they should able to offer the same amount for Rodri.

You shouldn't blame Arsenal fans if they are expecting so many goals from Gyokeres next season because the hype on Gyokeres is too much, and Arsenal fans are expecting him to live up to their expectations. Arsenal is a club that's good at set pieces, and they always create a lot of chances for their strikers, so I believe if Gyokeres is clinical in his finishing, he can be able to score 20 goals for Arsenal next season.
It's very rare to see a player who played in Portugal league can perform in English league just in one season, I don't remember which player did that. We saw Gimenez perform in Dutch league and when he played in Italian league, he's not able to perform.

Gimenez also scored against Bayern Munich, Lille, and Manchester City when he was in Feyenoord. The same thing how Gyokeres scored against Manchester City, Lille and Leipzig.

I agree the hype is too big, but we should expect lower.

If it was for Monero mission, I don't think they would shut down their service because Monero is a privacy coins and won't care about any pressure.

Someone said it could be due to tightening regulations and government are cracked down few privacy tools, if it was the reason, it would be better if they're being honest.

Nevertheless, it's better to see a privacy oriented tool shutdown earlier than getting caught and forced to reveal information to the government.

I also disappointed with Bayer Leverkusen 5-1 loss to Flamengo U20 team. It was worrying sign because Leverkusen had very little of ball made few good passes and barely shot at goal. Flamengo U20 team clearly controlled game which led to their five goals. Yes that is right that many Leverkusen players need to improve much and are making too many mistakes meaning they have some big problems to fix before main season begins.
Yep, I thought Leverkusen use their Academy players, but when I check their lineup in that match, most of them are senior players https://www.besoccer.com/match/flamengo-u20-juvenil/bayer-leverkusen/202612247/lineups

I think there's no excuse, even though Leverkusen lost Tah, Frimpong and Wirtz, but the current players should able to beat mediocre team. Unfortunately they lost with big margin, this show if Ten Hag was the problem.

When it became known that Ederson was leaving City, it was clear that they would be looking for a new goalkeeper. And it was also clear that they would want to find the best possible replacement for him. I think Diogo Costa is one of the best, but I can’t remember such huge amounts ever being offered for goalkeepers. Although I’d say that Ederson was quite a good keeper, City are clearly working on strengthening their defense.
Yep 60 Million Euros is too expensive for a goalkeeper, especially Diogo Costa only have experience in Portugal. Manchester willing to overpay I think because they really want him, I doubt Porto will reject their offer or there's an other team want to spend more than 60 Million Euros.

Happy to see Pep considering to replace the goalkeeper, Ederson wasn't a good, he looks good because Manchester City were having good defense. Anyway, Manchester City include Ederson on transfer market, Galatasaray is interested with him, but they ask for 3 Million Euros lol.

Re: The new era of Bitcoin '25 begin with square

Many people may misunderstand the headline, but that's not the point. I actually wanted to explain that Square has made everyday transactions usable and easy for ordinary people by using the Lightning Network, which is a new direction, i.e. a new way of Bitcoin transactions. Sometimes, people misunderstand because the presentation of words and the content are different, because I am not promoting Square or the Lightning Network here, but rather I am talking about presenting the easy use of Bitcoin to ordinary people. I wanted to explain a new chapter in practical terms, not about technological innovation.
If it's about payment processor who accept Lightning Network, those payment processors already accept it before Square did it.

1. https://confirmo.net/product/pos-terminal
2. https://pilsenga.com/payment-processor/
3. https://www.tryspeed.com/
4. https://opennode.com/

There also many places accept Lightning network too https://acceptlightning.com/

What people highlight is it the first company who implement lightning network in payment processor? if it's not the first company, why they get highlight?

Re: What Does "Being Rich" Even Mean Anymore?

Why you're confusing between rich and balance?

I don't see anything wrong with your first sentence, it was true rich people have big salary, nice car and some Bitcoin. They can only own that if they have money, they can't buy it by just being healthy and have a lot free time.

Not all rich people can have a balance because they're not born from rich parents and they're not women, so they can only rely on themselves to make money, hence they have a tight schedule.

Re: Youtuber said best time to sell bitcoin is when altcoins rally? Is this true?
by

on 21/07/2025, 15:36:35 UTC
We need to understand the context first.

@OP said it's a Youtuber who trade Bitcoin, so we need to highlight trader, of course trader only care about the short term gain. if we talk about trading, it's correct because when altcoins rally, it's not Bitcoin price will dump, but you will miss the big gain in altcoins.

So, most likely he advise to sell Bitcoin and immediately buy altcoins because he think altcoins season will happen.

It is an asset whose value increases over time due to limited supply while demand increases due to growing population.
The same thing with Bitcoin, it's limited supply and the demand increases due to decentralization and the safety of the asset.

Quote
It is also the only asset that can generate passive income through rentals, something neither gold nor bitcoin can do.
You can lend to anyone and you can generate passive income with Bitcoin.

You: "Lend Bitcoin has a risk"
So do property, is there no risk for renting your property? your tenant can destroy your property.

Therefore, increasing income and reducing expenses, avoiding waste should be the first priority, because we cannot invest in bitcoin without money. Or how can we become rich by investing just a small amount of money in bitcoin?
People aren't stupid for not understand the basic thing.

If raising income and reducing expense is easy, no one will complain about the struggle of life.

If you have no idea/find it difficult to use Bisq (not wrong though), it means every non KYC exchanges are hard aka there's no most user friendly non KYC exchanges. Any new thing is always hard because you're not familiar, unlike centralized exchanges where you only need to create an account, deposit, trade and withdraw without verify anything.

Anyway, why you not try to post your offer in this section? Currency exchange

I don't see anything wrong with that statement, it was true investment works when you have a lot of money to invest.

It's true investing as small as possible would accumulate wealth in the long run. We're talking about someone who want to grow wealth, I would argue it's better to start a business rather than working class people who choose to invest their money.

A successful business can change someone's life, a successful investment is not enough to change someone's life.

The latest report says Amorim still keen to sign a new striker and midfielder, but guess who? I hope he will consider Jackson from Chelsea. I'd like to see Jackson to wear Manchester United's shirt instead of Sesko. Why? Jackson has also proven himself to be among top scorer in EPL. Meanwhile, what about Sesko? Just another flop like Hojlund/Zirkzee.

As for the new midfielder, hard to guess it as they still linked to none. Maybe, Douglas Luiz?
Really? Nicolas Jackson and Dounglas Luiz? Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

Jackson is too pricey with the quality he has, 100 Million Euros. Douglas Luiz is a failed player, failed in both Juventus and national team. With the past signing and new target by Amorim, it's obvious he really want to ruin Manchester United.

I would say Manchester United is already too late with the present transfer window, other teams already got great players, there are only left over players who're expensive and lower quality.

Yeah, right! They have Mason Greenwood as well... I still can't believe how Manchester United sold him for only 26 million euros. It is surely a steal for Marseille.  Grin

If he didn't have those bad times back then, maybe he could have risen in English football more. He would have absolutely been priced much higher later on. But thankfully he is still improving his career now.
Oops I forget about him.

Why there's no big team interested with him? his performance in Getafe was good, his performance in Marseille was also good. He can play in big teams, I believe since he's still 23 years old.

I don't think there's need to prove from Greenwood, he has a quality.

Re: Your life partner is a financial decision too.

Moreover, I want to add to this topic that in addition to the choice of a partner, which will become a financial decision in the life of each person, the appearance of a child also affects the financial situation, because this requires quite large expenses.
In different countries the state helps young parents with children in very different ways. And it always depends on how much the state needs the population replenishment in the country where I live, it is considered rather weak state assistance to young parents.
You live in your country = You know the situation in your country.

You know the situation in your country = You can make calculation how much the possible amount you have to spend to raise a child.

Before you can have a child, you need to find a partner first.

See, the "most important" point here is having the partner because it's the core of everything.

You can have the money to raise a child, but you pick the wrong partner, you will end up bad.

Chelsea and Arsenal are reportedly interested in signing Xavi Simons. While there haven't been any official offers yet, Simons is reportedly keen on leaving Leipzig. Both of these options are excellent options for the young player, who scored 11 goals and provided 8 assists last season. Xavi Simons is a player who can match the quality of the Premier League. What are your thoughts on this? Would he be successful if he moved to the Premier League?
Chelsea? again?

Although I understand Chelsea currently don't have a reliable player to play in wing positions, but they already have so many players. Chelsea also have two new wingers in the upcoming season, namely Estevao and Gittens, they haven't play yet, but Chelsea is already want to sign a new player.

I just don't wanna see Ekitike to have the same path as Nunez. He's far expensive than nunez, and not PL proven. I expected Liverpool learned from their mistake in Nunez's transfer, but they weren't.
If they sign Osimhen, they would spend less and get higher quality player.

Between these number 20s Spurs, Arsenal, Chelsea and Newcastle have signed, who's going to be at their best next season?
Madueke and Elanga weren't really good in their previous teams, they also need to compete with the other players. In Arsenal they have Martinelli, in Newcastle United they have Barnes.

So I will rank it:
1. Joao Pedro
2. Mohammed Kudus
3. Noni Madueke
4. Anthony Elanga

United is interested in Nicolas Jackson from Chelsea. I am sure it would be a terrible transfer, no idea why they want him, considering how terrible he has done. Hojlund could score that many goals, it is not like Nicolas had any better season. They need a prolific scorer and so far they do not have any candidates even.
So they wanna spend for 100 Million Euros to get another shit player?

I thought they sign Mbeumo to play as a striker, but they're still looking for a new striker.

If you come out of the internet bubble you will find there are jobs that need manual labor and skills that cannot be provided by remote work and office like stops.

But then again these jobs are less accepted by most of the people in the world and hence they never come into the discussion.

Still a sort of balance between your work habits and how the office wants it needs to be there. Eventually things will change in such a way that AI might work parallel with current workers to make their lives easier.
Usually manual labor and skills who can't be replaced by working remotely are non skill jobs, that's why most people don't discuss it. Example working in blue collar jobs as fruit picker, you might earn enough and can live quite comfortable, but we know there's no way for you to improve much from doing that jobs.

You might be more familiar and you will be faster to pick the fruit, but there's no career path.

Losing to Walsall isn’t something to be proud of and I like the fact that they feel ashamed to post it out for the public to see it just shows that they recognize the fact that they a big club now and shouldn’t be taking some type of loses from smaller sides. I am sure they will do better in the next games they will play.
That account is trolling Aston Villa, you can check Aston Villa account in facebook and scroll down, you will find they posted the results. https://web.facebook.com/avfcofficial/

Assuming Ten Hag only came to the club to make the club unstable, it would have been better but he also mismanaged the resources given to him by selling a world class legend and bought inferior players. That's something weird about Ten Hag. Amorim is there to clean up his mess, but how long will Amorim be able to make that happen.
Amorim is also making mess, he's continuing Ten Hag's task for ruining Manchester United. Now he bought two B class players and they're overvalued. He can't sell the existing players because they're under perform and their market value are higher than their quality.
