1061  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: A neighbor next door on: July 26, 2023, 05:02:59 PM
If you are aware that your neighbor living next door is into drug dealing and he come seek your advice how to buy Bitcoin, will you teach him?

What comes straight to mind is embezzling the ill-gotten money, but is this even safe? My other neighbor knows I am into Bitcoin and he learned from me, I guess that's how this other neighbor knew, I told him to go meet the next neighbor but he said he is not ready to teach.

What will you do if something like this is happening around you? Why would a drug dealer want to learn Bitcoin if not for a safer haven for running the business?

My mind isn't settled as I keep thinking different things, what is on your mind readers?

First of all, I will never live near a neighbor that is into drug business, that's like risking my life with a person knowing fully they are into illegal stuff and decide the stay near them. What I will do if I have evidence, I will call the police, trust me bro, that's going to be the first thing I will do but if there is no any evidence, then that's like hearing rumors and decide to profile person, it will make me a bad person if I don't see something and then begin to believe what people say about someone, that's very bad to believe in rumors or street talk, I have to see to believe.

Now, when such kind of person approaches me to buy bitcoin, I will teach him how to buy as long as no evidence that money is illegal and by the way, he is using his account to buy bitcoin and not mine, I will teach him andbhow to buy but I wouldn't involved anything that has to do with me, if he is indeed a clean person, nobody will come hunting for his head but if it's illegal, they will come for him, I'm just like a regular person who direct a stranger where to buy something from the market.
1062  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Casinos Go Bankrupt Because of Player Wins? on: July 25, 2023, 05:43:36 PM
Though I'm not entirely sure, I don't think that's how things work around there, casinos that are successful and have gained some name and fame have enough funds to both cover the security expenses and to pay their players, and they have their business models designed in a way that a player cannot technically win more than they can afford to pay them, and the maximum that they pay a player for the biggest win is not even close to 10% of their bankroll.

So the idea that a casino might go bankrupt only because a player wins big is not true unless it is a casino that has been started with a small bankroll with no proper business plans and everything, such a casino might go bankrupt if they allow their players to hit big jackpots and then not be able to pay up.
It will only happen to casinos that did not have large funds when launching their casino, and it will only be a short time before the casino can get their income. Before the casino was launched, the owner must have thought about everything carefully, including how much money they had to provide to cover all the costs that would appear in the following month, including if a lucky gambler won a lot of money. And if the casino is really serious about what it does, it's sure to pay out the gambler's winnings in no time. So it is unlikely that the casino will go bankrupt because the number of gamblers who can win a lot of money will also not be many, and on average many gamblers will lose their money in gambling.

That reminds me of one casino that run off with user's money after it failed to pay up the users because the bonus they gave was much, and they didn't expect to see many users turn up, and they just disappear. Running a casino is a big business that requires thousands and millions of money because when a reputation is created and users' trust is gained, they can deposit large amounts of money, and doing that means they want to wager them in return to win back something, in the process they could lose everything but there are some that can win the jackpot, I think Casinos sometimes even do promotional jackpots event just rake in money when in reality they don't have money to pay the players if the opposite happens.
1063  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: July 25, 2023, 05:30:13 PM
These pre-game seasons are quite worthless when it comes to their meaningfulness for the real season. Of course you could say that Nunez scored a few goals, but against whom? Yesterday they played against Greuther Furth, a 2. Bundesliga team from Germany and they played 4-4. Now is that a good result for Liverpool and does it mean that Nunez is the right guy because he scored 2 goals in an 8 goals game against a 2. Bundesliga team? This is really meaningless in my opinion. The first real test will be against Chelsea when the new season starts.

The name "pre-season match" itself implies that it's premature to make definitive judgments. We all recognize that friendly matches are about playing amicably and entertaining the hosts. Had it been a Premier League game, the intensity, and competition would be on another level. Nunes' performance wasn't terrible, and Salah's assists confirmed his prowess as a skilled winger. I'm eagerly anticipating Nunes coming back even stronger when the full season kicks off; it'll be a thrilling sight to witness Gakpo in action once more.

The Chelsea team you're eagerly looking forward to might end up disappointing you when they face Liverpool at the beginning of the season. Based on their performance in the pre-season match, they don't seem to be different from Liverpool. Emotions are running mixed in the Chelsea camp, but it's too early to draw conclusions, we'll need to wait until at least five matches have been played to identify the strengths and weaknesses of most teams. However, I remain hopeful that Chelsea and Liverpool will secure an early spot in the top 4, similar to how Arsenal started last season and maintained their position until the end of the season.
1064  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are successful gamblers seen as addicts? on: July 25, 2023, 05:06:40 PM
I wish I could have posted this in a more better place but since the thoughts came from gambling addiction, I thought it wise to ask this question over here and I hope we can discuss and get this straight.

Just as the tittle already ask, I really want to know if people who are successful in gambling also seen as addicts because I believe  for one to be successful in gambling or whatever they choose to do, there must be some good amount  of time and effort invested in it as well as money and we know that a successful  gambler must have invested  both time, effort and even money to make any reasonable  winning  and these also are features of an addict as there are always excessive time spent on a betting site.

Now let's be sincere, will you also classify a successful gambler as an addict?

Addictions can manifest in various forms, spanning from smoking and drinking to even compulsively checking one's phone early in the morning, as I've personally experienced with my urge to jump into Twitter right away. When it comes to gambling, there are two distinct approaches. Successful gamblers invest their time in analyzing and selecting data, continually repeating this process as they place their bets. For them, gambling has transformed into a hobby and a means to earn income, becoming an integral part of their lives without or with minor effects of health concerns.

For failed gamblers, they can go as far as staying up all night to bet, they will repeat the process in 24/7, borrow money to gamble without realizing any benefit, it can even make them have a negative impact on their health mental and physical and they could even end up with huge debts that will ruin their relationships with the outside people and the people surrounding them, this is how gambling addiction can affect our lives.
1065  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: As a gambler do you have a potential winning amount limit? on: July 25, 2023, 04:35:35 PM
I have heard and read about people gambling because they had no source of income,  a job or they wanted to add gambling as part of their streams of income. Whatever your category the bottom line is that we all gamble to make money though some group claim it's mainly for fun. But who would want to be losing money all in the idea of catching fun!

There are gamblers that don't place their bet not until they have gotten a certain amount as their potential win. Some do this based on their financial challenge with the anticipation that just one win they may get on such amount is a life changer for them.

My main focus on this thread is in this question: as a gambler do you place your bet according to the weight of your financial need or you're always okay with whatever amount that comes out as potential win no matter how small amount?


Seems like a gambler that is trying to pass through a high level of financial difficulty, gambling to have a particular amount will lead to knowing where than consistent losses that will frustrate the living out of your miserable life and you will wonder if the gambling is for you to quit or to continue. I base my gambling base on any available event that I'm sure about and if I had the idea or not and then I place my bet based on how I feel the outcome will be, and how the performance maybe, you know betting doesn't require people to win, you can bet on them to lose.

Anytime I see people with plenty of events and games, I ask myself if they have the magic to turn things around because having multiple games combined, a single loss of a match can ruin an entire ticket which can be very painful, just imagine having 25 matches with a total of 200 odds and you have all of them as win or draw(X1) and then first 20 went as predicted and then the last one of the matches played to win but it was as X2, that ticket is done for real and you have just wasted 20 with maybe 150 odds good games that will give you something instead of been greedy for a large odd that will fetch you money that will never come.
1066  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: July 25, 2023, 02:25:59 PM
Yes, you're right, Ancelotti will be coach of Brazil team in the summer 2024, so he'll still have a whole season to win La Liga and possibly another Champions League. ) By the way, there are rumors that Real have already offered Negelsman a place in Real, after Ancelotti's departure, so that he waits for this season and does not sign contracts with other teams. Maybe it's just a rumor, but who knows. )

I thought that if a coach coaches a national team, it doesn't prevent him from coaching a club... I could be wrong, but I think some coaches have coached national teams and clubs at the same time... Although probably for Real Madrid this option is not suitable... I didn't realise Ancelotti would be leaving the club in a year...

Real Madrid would have honor Anceloti and allow him but this is one  of the biggest club we are talking about, they need Anceloti more than any national club need him and that's why he himself will take the job by next year. Brazil isn't even his nationality to begin with, there is no point of doing double work. It will even make him concentrate less in Real Madrid if he should manage to club and there wouldn't be time for rest and vacations because literally he would be active during domestic leagues and Champions league and will take over the national when the domestic leagues resume. There is no way for productivity if national teams clash with domestic leagues, it's better that way to quit the club by 2024 before summer time.

This news seems to hint that Harry Kane will leave this summer and especially if for family reasons it means he is serious about leaving Spurs. I think it is true that now is the right time for Spurs to let go of Harry Kane for the two reasons that you said will actually hurt Spurs in the coming season.

Except if Tottenham want to lose him as a free agent, its better they let him go now while there is an offer and they can reinstate a new striker that can replace Kane, they shouldn't wait until summertime because even the potential buyers would want to have him as free agent, they can settle less for Bayern or face what Mbape is facing with PSG now looking for buyers up and down and I'm very sure that Kane wouldn't go to Saudi Arabia anytime soon.

Quote
Meanwhile, Bayern Munich are currently offering too much for Harry Kane and they are very serious about being able to secure his services before the transfer window closes. Maybe the Spurs owner should be able to cool down his head and be more willing to let Harry Kane join Bayern Munich so that at least his flagship player can feel the title he has long dreamed of.

Is it that hard for Bayern to make a decision to remit $100k for Tottenham, maybe there is something they have secretly in mind they are not telling us otherwise this deal ought to have been completed by now even with Mane or without him, they have the financial power to buy Kane without feeling down from their bank; it will be a great deal for them and Tuchel will have enough options to utilize in matches since he is always complaining of competition among players, having a favourite will reduced that in my opinion.
1068  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: July 24, 2023, 07:22:34 PM
The championship this season will be dominated largely by clubs who have put up their front leg in the just concluded session and Barcelona happens to be one of such clubs and this is what most football speculators I predicting based on,  but all together,  football is a highly unpredictable game and at that, some other clubs who's performance may look underrated are also making that attempt to make a big difference in the coming season so most of them are making positive use of the current transfer windows to fish out new players that will better the lots of their clubs and this is why we have to be patent enough to experience the reality and if you ask me which among the current clubs will perform better in the new season will point to clubs like.
: Arsenal
: Barcelona
: Chelsea
:Liverpool

The above list seems to be my most anticipated clubs to look out for in this season,  and also we must monitor their actions and decisions in signing new players before the transfer windows will be closed. 

This season 2023-2024 UEFA champion league will indeed be filled with a lot of unpredictable results that will chuck many spectators.

I like the fact that you said it's your game prediction else I will say you just underrated the Champions League perhaps there are other things you look into to make this conclusion but they are lacking in quality teams if you don't include Real Madrid, I don't like Manchester City but they are among the top team I look forward to their games and likewise Napoli, your favorite teams were all English teams, you forgot to include other teams from other parts of the domestic league's Championships.

There were so many mixed emotions last season, so many clubs I was looking up to all failed me woefully and I was embarrassed by Real Madrid particularly but this time, I think there will be a lot of changes since teams like Arsenal, will make up the group this season, some of these teams will help clear way for my favorite team, just imagine Arsenal remove Manchester City in the knockout stage only for them to meet Real Madrid in Quarter final, that will be magnificent.
1069  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Premier League 2023/2024 Discussion Thread ⚽ on: July 24, 2023, 11:55:26 AM
Harry Kane's future is still ambiguous now. Bayern Munich and PSG have been the teams chasing this transfer. However Kane has stated clearly that he doesn't want to join PSG. Otherwise PSG have been reported to make a bigger offer like 100 million euros to Tottenham. Kane wants only Bayern Munich now.

This is what oil clubs do the most, fight to get the hottest player of the season, it's PSG I'm talking about; that's how they won and pour money into Mbape making football worthless, the players are no longer playing for the love any longer, it's strictly now business and fame and when the player doesn't meet their expectations, then they start emotional state and use the media against you. I hope Kane measure his moves before taking step that will affect him, if he is going to PSG, he should ask Mbape and if he is going to Bayern, he should study how Mane was been treated unfairly.


Quote
However Levy still doesn't seem like very keen on letting him go for a price below the value he would like. As PSG have made an offer like that I guess his demand from Bayern Munich would also be no less than that. I have heard that there is already an agreement between Bayern Munich and Kane. Bayern Munich are just working on finding a middle way with Tottenham.

The same faith that bind PSG and Mbape is similar to what Kane is undergoing in Tottenham but his agent are more serious on moving him to Bayern that are still struggling to have the money available to bring him in while PSG has the money on ground, indeed those who have the head doesn't have the cap and those who have the cap don't have the head.

Pre season match Real Madrid 3 vs 2 AC Milan

Nice result for first pre season match Real Madrid after success winning against AC Milan, first starting eleven Real Madrid played with full main player after several recruitment from Jude Bellingham, Brahim Diaz and Joselu played in the first minute. Have winning mentality its important key how Madrid success won from AC Milan although first half have conceded two goals. Federico Valverde success coring two goals and Vinicius Jr played on second half success contribution one goal and Madrid win for the first pre season match.

Bellingham need time to get use to the team, man literally was running up and down and couldn't make a God conversation for more than 64 minutes, even when Anceloti made a batch substitution of players with the main squad, he was left inside to unleash his full potential and impress Real Madrid fans but nothing came out of it until Valverde score two goals in the space of two minutes before Anceloti realizes that he is of no use again and remove him as the last guy that was substituted out of the match and just like magic, Vinicious added an extra goal to give Real Madrid lead ahead of Milan, this was a friendly match but so serious like a competition of a league.

Quote
Carlo Ancelotti give chance for all players exactly with new signing get first minutes play, almost them need time for adapting and Joselu have to show his capacity as Real Madrid's foward.

I haven't quite see if Madrid has transform, the players that were started by Anceloti didn't make too much chances not until the main squad like Mode, Rudiger, Rodrigo, Vinicious, Valverde came in and they just the regular players he had and were the ones that transformed the match later, I doubt if this is enough to kick start the season without good forward, Bellingham is average in my opinion.
1071  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Greed can cause a lost bet, (true or false) on: July 23, 2023, 10:10:04 PM
Last 2 night I signed up to an online bet called betking (become a KING) and I bet a virtual stake with 1700 naira to win 1,438,540.92 naira, but the game was lost and the bet that made it to lost was the last one I added, before I added the last one that made the winning to be this amount, I was having double thoughts like should I make the winning a random figure 1.5 million or I should stake it at 1.3? But out of greed I refused to bet the game at 1.3 and I added the one that lost the bet, what a pity?
Greed is one thing that gets some game lost, the stake we are supposed to win out of greed we add another that get the game lost.
Out of my own experience I have learnt my lessons, but I don't believe that this opportunity might ever come again because I don't bet often, on a second thought this my story is what makes some people put more interest on gambling.


It's really nothing my friend, if you are this experience to win that straight list of games with only a single match unsuccessful, then I believe this is not your first time, it's a regular thing that happen to every gambler and then you be like "if I had known" I wouldn't pick that, "I was been greedy", this and that but it's just the normal after effects of betting, there is nothing to feel bad about. If you can actually make good predictions in this manner, you can try more because by calculation, you had 90% of probability of winning, the last game was the 10% lost, try again next time, you never can't tell anything is possible.

I really salute your caurage, I don't like virtual gambling, that's sh!t has made many go broke, I don't know you manage to have that spirit to play it because they are one the most volatile gambling I have seen people play and lost, I have never tried it before because of the risk.
1072  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Mistake that prevented your big win. on: July 23, 2023, 10:02:25 PM
As a gambler,I know that we have done so many mistakes in the pass base on our bets and wrong strategy or calculations that we have done which led to losing the game that was suppose to make you win big. I want to use myself as an example,I love sportbet and I bet more on it. Last months I placed my bet on 7 games that was to be played for two days. When the 5th game was played,all matches came out as predicted and I was called by the casino,to offer me a cash out of $200 in my local currency and I refused it because if the other two games was played and the I got the predictions right. I will win $1200,so I turned the offer down. The painful part of it was that the two games were to kick off on the same time,and after the games,my prediction for the two games was wrong. I felt so bad because I allowed greed to control my emotion. For this reason,I having decided that when ever I have an opportunity to cash out again,I will always go for it,instead of thinking that I can win all the money.
So my question is this,as a gambler what mistake have you made when gambling that prevented you from winning big.
Let's discuss.

I'm guessing it was sportybet you played this game if I'm right, they are one of the few sport betting platforms that gives cashout options prior to the completion of the matches selected on the ticket but let me tell you something, you made the right right choice and call, there is nothing to feel remorse about, it possible that the ticket might went well and all could go wrong and I very confident that your first intention was to win every match that's why even the last two were included, nobody made the selection, you did and you should be happy about it, next one will favor you.

You are even lucky you still had 2 games for cashout option, I have had several last match on my ticket with mouth watering cashout offer and I didn't cashout, reason is that I have did similar cashout in the past and the games came at the end, that's why I don't do buy into cashout again because the sportbets are doing to avoid paying much to the players/gamblers.
1073  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gamblers Belief on: July 23, 2023, 09:45:16 PM
If you want to see a person full of hope and belief, then gamblers are the perfect example. The hope of winning and the belief to win is found in gambling. Even if you tell them that gambling is risky and the result may come out differently (not in his favor), they refuses to accept it and have 100% belief that they will win at any cost.

This type of belief and commitment is not found in any other walk of life. People doing business or spending money somewhere have doubt and fear that things can do against them, and they may face loss too but the gamblers are so firm in their belief that they never look at the other side of the picture. They want the win, and they 100% know in their subconsciousness that they will win. that is the reason they will never hesitate to put money into gambling.

We are not talking about the result which comes later on, once they gamble. They may lose too but the passion and belief of winning among the gamblers can't be seen anywhere else.

"Hope" is a cherish word that people rely on when you have nothing to rely on, it's like not having a money and broke but people have promised to pay back the money they owe you but you don't know if they will actually payback but you hope they will pay back, that's how gamblers hope in their games in general, but  accepting loss is something to readily get used to when your results are not what you had in mind, if you can accept profit with cool mind, loss is a minor thing to accept as well, only a psychopathic gambler will refuse to accept loss.

I have a notion and it's simple, ones a game is been stake with the little I can afford to lose, I don't expect it to win any game for me, that's how I picture it on my mind and most often I always get surprised if my win any game I bet because I don't expect them to win, I played with the little skills and the experience, it doesn't go beyond that strategy.

It is definitely going to be a tough season for everyone and that includes Chelsea and Liverpool, although both teams has actually had a good transfer market and the market hasn't ended yet meaning that they can still get more players into their team.

I'm not certain about the proficiency of Chelsea preseason but with the number of players they have signed, Pochettino can actually kick start the Premier League without any fear of been beating by other teams, he has cook good guys into the team he needed, there still more than 6 weeks before the transfer window close and after that, they wouldn't be able to do much except there is already discussion about a player they have already had underground but I can say that with the team they have already, I'm satisfied with Chelsea concortion and Liverpool is very still in good shape, but I'm not confident about their position in the coming season.

Quote
I am still looking at Manchester city, arsenal and Manchester united this would be the teams to actually drag for the English premier league and I am still going for Manchester city to lift the league but it would be heavily contested.

Manchester City don't needed a vulcanizer to improved the team, Guardiola has the players he needed and he has strengthen his Midfielders, so he is good to go and Erik didn't even stress yesterday when the play against Arsenal in the friendly match, the more I look into their yesterday moves, they have should stay in between second or third place till the end of the season or perhaps first place in the table, they have that energy.

If you are not good, buy and hold and if you are good or ready to learn about BTC/USD trading, you can get that but you have to be experienced before you can achieve those profits, if you are too expert and conversant with the trading, there are some days that you can earn more than that, but first, you must understand the market before you start trading.

I've come across cases,where people claim that their blockchain was hacked and a huge amount was stolen from it, and I find it hard to belive it's possible because in my opinion it's impossible for a blockchain to be hacked because it's decentralized (not controlled by any authority) and it's managed by it's users, therefore for a hacker to penetrate into it, more than 50% of the nodes have to agree on that making it very difficult to penetrate, it's either they exposed their seed phrase or password.
 What's your opinion about this, also correct me if my opinion is wrong.

Most of the time, the hack that happens are always altcoins, it has been a long time since 2010 when Bitcoin was attacked, that wasn't really a hack, the attacker found a bug and exploited it to create about 184 billion BTC but was fixed by satoshi through a soft fork with new Bitcoin client at that time. If I recall very well, 2022 recorded the highest number of blockchain hacks in different altcoins, which was about 5 biggest apart from the exchanges that lost users money; the list below

Ronin Network — $625 million.
Wormhole Bridge — $325 million.
Nomad Bridge — $190 Million.
Beanstalk Farms — $182 million.
Wintermute — $162 million.

Binance has done a lot for the development of cryptocurrency, I like their grant programs for education, financing of new projects, humanitarian aid in case of natural disasters, here they have proven themselves really from the best side. And I understand what the SEC wants from them not so long ago there was a collapse of a rather large FTX exchange, and after that, global harassment and control cannot be avoided now. But I think the issue will be settled in favor of binance.

What are they doing since FTX collapse if not for ass leaking and getting bribes in the corners, what did they do with Sam to date, there is absolutely nothing but silence and the court has been silent as well but they are trying to witch hunt Binance even when I know that they are not clean as they speak in the public but Sec must not take crypto personal, he is pained that he can't control Bitcoin and the sad true is that there is nothing he can do about it till dy kingdom dy com.

If trade by barter system was to be global today, they will say lots of criticism from traditional finance for the inflation they have set for countries since the early 80s, but they are just a tiny matter that people don't use anymore but the problems with traditional finance is that they think they are too perfect to govern the economy but at the end, inflation is doing everything the way it like, this is what Bitcoin fix and they must be ready to accept it, Sec must accept how crypto is designed, he doesn't speak for the world, he speaks just for the US because crypto doesn't end in United state.

In story 1, Defossey left a job at Apple to open a BBQ restaurant in Mexico City. It made $9 million in sales last year. In story 2, Sean Audet, a 30-year-old, spent $0 launching a food photography side hustle, and now he brings in $134,000 a year.

The people in these stories followed their passion and created wealth through it. What is your opinion on following one's passion in relation to wealth? Can your passion lead to an increase in your net worth? If yes, what is stopping you from following it?

They followed their passion because they know it will work perhaps after a careful research and stories of others, there is no way you can jump into something without believe and research, you can't wake up one day and says you have passion for something without due diligence, proper research must have been done, proper findings must  have help you clear the hypothetical questions before you start and that's what I believed help those who have a success stories to share.

However, in a every good stories, there is something they are holding back, they wouldn't tell you everything, the challenges they hard because by looking at it, you may think the journey was smooth but by the thing you try to test it out, you will be amazed by the untold story they held back while sharing the good stories.

In addition, you may have passion on anything and may still failed, life is not fair sometimes. You may even succeed in the beginning and failed at the middle line, just put determination in anything you do and keep striving hard, repeat it again and again all over again until the goals and objectives becomes visible on your eye but know that the road is not as smooth as people do claim.

The purchasing powers of citizens are getting weak and I don't understand if the consumer protection laws are even effective anymore this days.
You buy something for a certain amount today, in the next one week, that same item you bought  has charged Prince without any reason.
How are you guys pulling it through with this inflation?

When a country is at war, you don't expect such country to grow, you don't expect them to.have a minor adjustable +_ regulated inflation, it will an increase in inflation upon inflation and the war continues, so those the inflation because no County grows without inflation when they are in war considering the situation of Ukraine and Russia, it has never been a good headlines for Ukrainian, it's always Russia did this and that and that's why I think Russia is not as messed up the way Ukraine is, they are still balling hard on their economy but sorry that you got up caught by the political wars.

In my home country, I think our own is becoming unbearable for ordinary citizens to breath after new elected openly removed fuel subsidy. For economy to move forward, transportation must be cheap and working perfectly but ever since subsidy was remove on fuel pump, it has literally affected everyone and cost of everything is now on the rise while depreciating the local currency because the people importation is highly greater than their exportation, so the fight for $$ has increased and everything is going up, only lord knows what the government have on mind to prevent further inflation but the masses are suffering my friend including me.
