I know bitcoin can work wonders but going that high in such a short period seems impossible to me but let’s see how it goes. Though I believe a new ATH would be reach before that time but i am not quite certain if it can reach that high but let’s see if your prediction will be accurate this time OP. I bookmark it and let's see what happens in the future. Personally, I expect a maximum of $140,000 new ATH at the end of 2024 to Q2 2025, but the variables are many, and if the price exceeds this range, it will be great.
I've never witnessed a bull run or ATH period where the price of bitcoin has risen so much; instead, I've only heard stories of people who made significant gains. Since I started monitoring the price, it has gone up and down a few times but i want to see bitcoin pass over its current ATH and reach a new ATH. I've been patiently waiting to see what happens as there have been speculations that 2023 to 2024 could see another bull run. I'll monitor @ImThour's predictions to find out what happens so that I may finally get a glimpse of how things might be. I'm hoping the outcomes will be the same as they were as his last prediction. |

It is not right to make gambling a major source of income. Most communities here in the crypto business know this. Why is there anyone who can prove that gambling is a stable source of income? Or are there any articles that can say that a gambler lives because of the money he regularly earns from gambling? Except for the gamblers who suddenly got rich because they got the gambling jackpot, obviously it can be said to be luck of the game.
Some people have become millionaires through gambling and so have some millionaires loose all their money to gambling that’s why it is always advisable never to rely on gambling as a source of income. The risk is too much and level of uncertainty is too high because you can be broke today and be loaded the next day so you need a separate job that gives you stable income so you just support it with your gambling earnings whenever you win a bet. If you go into gambling looking all serious or anxious about how much you should win, then you shouldn't gamble for that day
This is what i go through sometimes and when i didn’t expect much or when i gamble with less pressure i always have a positive result but when i have it in mind that i must win because i desperately need money the result is always bad. That have proven to me that gambling is not a thing to rely on but instead a game of fun that can earn you some money while playing. It is a game for entertainment purpose. |

I don't agree if you say they ignore local players in fact local players can compete with other European players we can see it in the current top scorer list at least 2 local players are on the list Feras Albrikan and Salem Al-Dawsari besides that we can also see Al-Taawoun which is dominated by local players out of 29 players 21 of them are local players and they are currently in 2nd place in the standings. I think this is enough to prove that local players can compete and be relied on and their abilities increase if they continue to play with European players.
People usually underrate the abilities of the local players alot probably because the league is investing so much money to sign foreign players but I don’t see them that way, compared to other top league the saudi league is not up the standards yet but that doesn’t mean there are no good players in the league. They are investing in foreign players because they want to raise the standards of the league and gradually they are raising it’s standards. I do watch some matches in the league and i was seen some decent local players, i was surprised at first but then i realized maybe it’s because the league was not given attention that’s why we don’t notice them. What surprised me most was a player i saw dribbling showing off skills like we see in European football that was the day I realized they got talent too. |

I honestly do not think keeping Salah was a smart decision. He is 30+ years old, getting 100+ million for him would have been an amazing deal for them. He is an Arabic player who would play in an Arabic league, which would have been a great marketing for Saudis, and meanwhile Liverpool could have kept that money and if they really need someone, they could buy one next summer.
Salah is still a good player regardless of his age so you can’t write him off just yet, he performed quite well last season and he was among top 5 highest goal scorers in the league last season so he can still perform well just like last season. I know the price tag was high and considering his age they should have accepted the offer but if salah should leave now it will be difficult to find a replacement for him and it will greatly affect the team. Without salah they will not have a leader up front and they may end up struggling throughout the season so it’s not a bad decision for me as they can still sell him next and take their time to look for better replacement before his departure. |

Well the banks are out for business so what do you expect in that situations, and from what you displayed that bank app should be opay and that feature doesn't give you the chance to place a bet directly as you said, but the feature is to fund your betting account.
That been said, there is high security threat going around for a while now, and some customers of those banks that allow for direct bet, which means banks directly involved in the gambling where the customer can place bets, buy lottery tickets and make every other gambling activities have recorded cases of customer security exposure that have led to customers find being transferred to an unknown gambling account, this in most cases are untraceable.
@Davidvictorson it is paramount that, at this point, you need to take every responsibility for the security of your money.
It is very clear that feature is meant for funding your accounts but i got a message about placing a bet on one of these banks, either opay or palmpay I can’t recall the exact one but i was shocked when i received the message and immediately i disregard it, why would a bank want it’s customers to gamble the money they saved with them? I am still clueless. I do not know if this is how it is in other parts of the world but I noticed that in my banking app, there a betting feature where the user can place a bet on any match directly from the app.
I think we are from same country or maybe it’s the same for my country as well because I also noticed this some time ago after they sent me a notification message telling me how i can place a bet from the app. I was surprised how a bank app would have such feature, from funding your bet account from the bank app to bringing betting features to the app even when they know it's not appropriate and can have bad effect on their customers. Honestly, I hate it and I think that this feature should be removed so as to protect consumers from potential harm promote responsible financial practices and maintain the integrity of financial institutions. Bodies in charge of betting regulations should start here by establishing guidelines or restrictions prohibiting betting features within banking and financial apps. My submission is that betting features on any banking or financial apps should be removed to discourage compulsive gambling and irresponsible gambling. Do you agree with this perspective?.
I agree to this OP because i know how tempting gambling can be and whenever you have money in your account even when you have plans for the money you maybe tempted to place a bet and in the end you risk losing the money you had plans for. This feature is very dangerous and will affect alot of customers so i also think it is inappropriate to make such features available on any banking and financial app. Financial institutions should rather encourage and motivate their customers on how they can save money rather than making such features available. I am really disappointed and i don't think i will ever make use of this feature, i rather make use of a real gambling casino. |

All Ansu needs now is to just keep his head focused on maintaining a good fitness schedule and at the right moment am sure he would get to show us why he is likened to the next Messi with the kind of potential he has displayed already.
Ansu Fati no doubt is a very good player, he has once shown the world what he is capable of but his performance drop alot when he sustained an injury and right now his performance has not been encouraging since his return from the injury but maybe this loan deal could help revive his career since he will be playing under one of the best managers in England but the only problem i have with this move is wether he is capable of challenging Mitoma on the left wing, I think it will be difficult to have a decent playing time while Mitoma is physically fit. Xavi Hernandez have his reasons, he sent Ansu Fati on loan to another club which is outside La Liga. During his time in Barcelona, Ansu Fati is performing at a mediocre level. The blaugrana encouraging him to gather more experience in an extra competitive league like the English Premier League appears to be an excellent decision for the spaniard. I have complete faith in Roberto De Zerbi, who is currently the manager of Brighton. He's more interested in talented young players, consequently Ansu Fati will be more beneficial for him. We're looking out for a fierce structure of the seagulls this season.
Let’s see if Fati is up to the task of surviving in the English Premier League, it’s a good move to play in the Premier League because if his performance improves the whole world will see how he has improved and it will help revive his career but if he fails that will be the end. |

When i dey read some people post the thing dey sound me like sey Dem they speak correct English but this our local board na pidgin English wey dey us talk here, make our people dey use pigeon dey talk here so that wey from naija go dey understand weitin we dey cap well well, if we wan use english talk, some oyibo dey read wetin we dey talk and some of Dem dey no watsup when we talk,
OP by now you suppose don sabi a lot about the forum and this Local board but e go de do me like say you no really know much about am as i de think. During the early days wey dem wan start something about where naija people fit de relate dem get some rules wey dem don set aside and we know say any gathering wey no get rules no de last. So dem come to conclusion say make pidgin and English be d general language for this board and if notice even for the country no be everybody sabi speak d pidgin well and English na general language for the country so i no see any reason why we go stop de speak English here. And again na when you de do bad thing or talk bad things na im you go wan de hide wetin de hide make people no know wetin you de do and since we no de talk bad thing or go against forum rules why we no go want make oyinbo understand wetin we de talk. Na oyibo people get d forum so i no see anything wey wrong in understanding wetin we de talk. Even you sef fit go use translator go read wetin de happen for other local board but what’s the essence, though for educational purpose it’s good since you can learn something from them as well. so is good make we make sure sey the tins we talk e plenty for our pidgin pass the one wey we use corit English talk, this Tori wey I come tell my brother's and sisters wey dey there. Another tin wey dey important we wey b naija people suppose dey do, na to help our country people make dem grow becuz na una people go still help dem to grow, we no go expect make person wey from another country dey carry una brothers and sisters along, make una dey try dey show love the wey brainboss dey show people love for the community, make una know sey injury to one is injury to all, and when we urinate together it will come outside foam.
To me everybody de try for here and I understand the part wey you de go but people de try for here ooo. Love can come in different ways depending on the one wey d person fit offer you. If na merit aspect you de talk about, if you post wel I believe say you go earn d merit so make you still understand say merit begging is against the rules. |

One thing Saudi League and not only Saudi arabs teams needs to change or improve its stop playing shit tournaments like arab cups or something like that, that only generate more minutes and more possibilities of a injuty on a player, and are tournaments without any importance, asides of the feel of the owners who like to play that tournament only because they played against his brothers, or other crowns.
All this tournaments might not mean anything to you but it does mean a thing to the teams that participates in them. It’s true that it exposes players to potential injuries but it’s just the same thing in Europe, there are also several cups and competitions teams participate in in Europe that actually does not mean alot just like the carabao cup but it’s part of an achievement for any club that wins it for the season. These competitions are mostly played by the second squad of the team so other players can rest properly for bigger competitions. The Saudi teams are supposed to do the same thing also and use their second squad for the cups until it gets to the final stages of the competition. |

Ancelotti is likely to have made Jude Bellingham the second striker in Real Madrid's game plan. In the formation, Bellingham plays as an attacking midfielder, but I think Ancelotti has given him a bigger role which in the end Bellingham was able to utilize well. I know Bellingham scored the same goals as Ronaldo in his first 4 matches, but he is not comparable to Ronaldo.
This Bellingham’s role as an attacking midfielder maybe working for the coach and the player but Ancelloti should be aware that it’s not Bellingham natural position so things can wrong in the future and he might not be as lucky to score goals as he have scored since the beginning of the season. Bellingham is more comfortable as a central midfielder rather than as an attacking midfielder and I respect him for the fact that he has tried to adapt to his new role faster than I imagined, he didn’t even make it look as if he just joined up with the team recently just as Ronaldo did during his first spell but that doesn’t mean we can compare the two players. Bellingham needs to maintain this form for 20+ seasons to be comparable to Ronaldo. After all, you can't expect Bellingham to always be able to maintain this good record in every match. He can be expected to help attack, but you can't expect him to score every game unless Ancelotti expects it to be.
If he scores goals everytime it’s good for the team but Ancelloti and the fans shouldn’t expect him to score in every match. |

Chelsea winning trophies will not come as soon as many have expected. Pochettino is building Chelsea from scratch with new players. Much shouldn't be expected from him. It will take years before we can see Chelsea comfortably lift a trophy. The least we can expect them to do at this season and the upcoming season is to fall between the top position of 3rd to 7th position of the premier league table.
Well some managers can pull it off but it is not an easy task to accomplish. There have been a lot of changes done to the team and it’s just as you said, pochettino is building chelsea all over again so we shouldn’t expect much from him this season, he has added a lot of players so if he can work on the team style of play and the formation to adopt this season I think he should be able to fight for a spot in the top 4 because the players have individual qualities. By next season the team should have been ready to challenge for the title and not just fight for a spot in the top 4. |

I think that it would be much better for Sevilla to go down to the Europa League rather than continuing in the Champions League. Because clearly they can be more successful there. Sevilla have already started poorly to the season. On paper they got a lucky draw in the Champions League. But considering their effort these days I don't expect them to do better than Arsenal and PSV both. They can just make sure to get as many point as possible from Lens to consolidate the 3rd position.
When they go to the tournament in which they are called "the king" they can be much more successful.
It doesn’t matter if they play Europa league or champions league since you believe they can’t survive the champions league they would still get knocked out in the group stage and go back to the Europa league where they belong. Since the season has only just begun, I don't think it's appropriate to write them off just yet. They still have time to turn things around before the champions league begins, and even in their current poor form, they should be able to face PSV and battle their way through the group stage even though they have no chance of making the finals. Everyone is aware of Sevilla's exceptional performance in the Europa League, which some refer to as The Sevilla League. Like magic they always walk their way to the finals and most times they end up winning it but they shouldn’t because of that not fight for a spot in the champions league where the bigger boys dine. |

Real estate is the real deal in my country, I don't know about other places, but in my country it is the investment that is growing the fastest right now and in a few years it will double the value of your investment. They both have the potential to produce high returns, but for the time being I am all in on cryptocurrencies because I am not financially stable enough to invest in real estate. In addition, I can easily sell my bitcoin if I am in desperate need of money. Real estate investment needs an enormous initial commitment, making it difficult for those who lack sufficient financial means to get started. They are both similar to me, but real estate doesn't lose value as quickly as bitcoin does due to its volatility, and trading bitcoin is simpler and less expensive.
Both are great investments and have their benefits, but for the time being I prefer bitcoin investments, however I will consider real estate in the future.

It's not new to us that the rate at which everyone uses banking Apps on their phone has grown rapidly due to the recent spike in digital banking like Opay, Palmpay, Kuda, Moniepoint and other related micro banks and this is due to their fast transaction unlike the commercial banks that sometimes delay payment, these banks save you when you want to make fast local transaction without having to wait, they are pretty fast and some don't charge for fees while some do but limit the free transfer you can do in every 24 hours. This is what people like about them and even though it difficult to locate their branch we still have so much believe in them because of the small small benefits we get. They have made online banking very easy and affordable for us and that’s why we all hardly make use of any commercial bank. They have so much advantage over commercial banks that why most Nigerians have turn to them. Another reason why we avoid saving money in commercial banks is because of the unexpected deduction of our money, they will just deduct an amount without any notice or reason and without any debit alert. While using them i am still very cautious because anything can happen in Nigeria so I don’t save all my money in these digital micro finance banks. There is a challenge with these Apps and one of them is when your phone is mislaced or stolen, the first thing they do with your phone is to find a way to unlock it if it's locked and if the phone is not passworded, they go straight to your mobile app to drain the account balance.
This is very common way people get scammed especially from these banks because they don’t provide enough security so I believe it our own duty to safe guard our assets to prevent an hack in case we misplace our devices. How to prevent this from happening:
1. Make sure that your sim card is pin protected, this way it will be difficult to get access to your Sim when the phone is on, even if they are able to unlock the phone, the sim will remain locked and that gives you the advantage of making sure that your mobile wallet remains inaccessible.
2. Make sure to always password your phone, some phones are easily jail break but it is better than not having anything at all, this can give you time to do a welcome back before they get access to the phone.
3. Always have less money on this virtual app to protect yourself from this kind of emergency, this can help you in case the banks try to run away because there has been a lack of transparency from them, especially Opay and Kuda.
Good advice OP, na true, if we practice these precautionary measures e go help us protect our money and make we no de forget the kind amount wey we go de keep inside these kind banks because if something happen e go hard to locate any of their branch to go report make them freeze the account asap. No matter the benefit wey dis banks de give us we no fit trust dem fully so to me i still feel say the best bank to use na still our common commercial banks if we wan get peace of mind. |

Do you only buy Bitcoin for the sake of profit? if yes, that's why you're worried if there's no bull run for the next 10 years.
Many people make the mistake of purchasing bitcoin solely for the potential profit, but there are other benefits as well. Bitcoin offers us a lot and overcomes a lot of problems; it allows us complete control over our assets while also allowing us to benefit from its volatility. Many people don't know the basic motivation for its establishment, so they just perceive it as a means of getting money, which is not what it is intended to be. What if there is no crypto bull run for next 10 years ? Will you give up all your investments and get out of crypto because of this ? Or do you you have even more broader horizon and can wait longer to see the next bull run ?
I understand that you adopted bitcoin purely for financial gain, but I hope you will be able to see bitcoin for what it was intended and not be so worried about the bull run. Bull run will happen when it happens, so it doesn't matter how long it takes since even if it takes up to 10 years, it doesn't mean I should sell my investment because I am not into bitcoin for the profit only; I also see it as a way to have complete control over my finances. Personally, I am very much positive with bitcoin future but we should also be prepared for all situations. Nothing can be guarantee in present times and we must also be prepared for worst situations.
If you are not in for the profit alone you won’t be bothered about any situation that comes along the way so I don’t have any reason to be overly prepared i will just flow with any situation we encounter along the way. |

Yesterday I didn't watch the Arsenal vs Man U match to the end and switched it off after Man U's goal wasn't counted due to VAR... Now I looked at the stats of the game and saw that Arsenal managed to score two goals in the last minutes... Shame I missed the most interesting moments... It really was a great game...
U really missed the most interesting part, i also believed it was going to end as a draw so I stopped watching right from the extra minute before the corner kick that resulted to the second goal. The late drama made it more interesting but there have been a lot of controversies by the referees lately but it all part of the game and somedays it will favor your team and other days it will not so i guess we should all get used to it. It was an interesting game. |

According to Fabrizio's report, Sevilla is said to have signed with Sergio Ramos. Sergio Ramos must have been thinking about ending football with Sevilla as if I remember correctly he became valuable in football while playing for them.
To show respect for what they have done for you, it's always a good idea to end your career playing for the team you first joined. Since his move to PSG didn't go as planned, it only makes sense to look for better options since he wasn't appreciated by the fans and was frequently injured while playing there. Sergio Ramos has increased my admiration for him by choosing to play for Sevilla once more despite receiving a contract offer from Al-Ittihad. He could have travelled to Saudi Arabia to make more money, but he chose sevilla out of loyalty. I believe he made the right choice, and I pray for the best for him. Actually it doesn't matter when Chelsea spend a lot of money to shop for players, as long as they make effective purchases, meaning that the players they bring in will make a big contribution to them. Meanwhile, what I see from Chelsea is that they buy players while the players do not make much of a difference to their game, especially in the last season. This season I see better than before, but I can't be sure if they will be able to contribute fully throughout the season or not.
The effectiveness of bringing in players must also be considered, I am talking about this not only for Chelsea, but for all clubs.
It happens frequently that a player is purchased only for him to turn out to be a failure. Several teams have had players that ended up being flops, but they decided not to purchase any more players because adding additional players to the squad is so beneficial. We all witnessed a different Chelsea in preseason, and that same Chelsea can genuinely compete in the league, but the coach has decided not to utilise the same methods. He may have his reasons for not using the formation he used in preseason, but we all saw a different Chelsea and we were all impressed. Whatever his reasons he should better make things right because chelsea entirely doesn’t have patience and they can get him sacked if they don’t see good results. Perhaps they're not adapted enough yet, so the game isn't as good as I'd like it to be. But I agree, spending a billion and barely achieving anything is not the best thing to do. You can spend a lot less money and get results twice as good at least. I think they just bought the wrong players that can help them.....
I will still say this till anyday i notice an improvement, to me it’s not the players that are not good enough but the coach. His tactics is not really not good for young players, when you want to play a defensive formation you need to have more experienced players in the team that will play with all their heart but with this young gems all you have to tell them is to go out there and enjoy themselves after fixing in the right players and tell them to keep attacking when they have the ball because they all have individual talent and to see the best of young players you have to make them play freely but always remind them to be purposeful. Why can't Chelsea use a 3-man offensive structure like all the top teams in the Premier League this year and see if things don't get better? Gallagher, Enzo, and Caicedo are all DMs, making it difficult for them to create chances. You shouldn't expect much creativity from defenders because all they are used to doing is defending the goal and not attacking, so practically speaking Chelsea is playing only 2 attackers with 8 players defending. According to me, the team won't succeed this season if the coach doesn't change his use of 8 defenders. |

Hey everyone! I'm new here to Bitcointalk, currently looking around and learning the ropes. Hoping to add value in a crowded space.
Looking for tips on what everyone thinks is the best way to get the most value out of Bitcointalk.

Welcome onboard anyway, value of Bitcointalk in what way? Everyone has different reasons for joining the forum so only know the reason for joining the forum but whatever the reason, to get the best you need to be committed and dedicated because you will read alot if you want to understand so much about the forum.

Today's match ended with a great victory for Al-Nassr with 5 goals to 1. Sadio Mane and Cristiano Ronaldo scored a goal each.
Al Nassr are really living the life now, they are unstoppable in the league after losing their first two matches and now they are scoring goals for fun, they are scoring 4-5 in every match now seeing them 3 points behind the league leaders. I think they are in the title race as well because they really enjoying football and scoring goals as well. The play was fantastic and i think the addition of Brozovic in that midfield is a huge boost for them, he balances the game for them and he is the mastermind behind the team play and creating of chances. Sadio Mane and Ronaldo cannot stop scoring, they both scored a goal tonight and the chemistry in the team now is so good, they combine well and help each other score goals, that how a team is supposed to play if they want to win. Kudos to the coach for giving the players such mentality. |
