1181  Other / Meta / Re: Proposal For Naija (Nigeria LB) Sub-Boards Creation on: November 10, 2023, 02:32:42 AM
Some of mentioned sub-boards are not related to Bitcoin, and creating such sub-boards may increase spam discussions that are not related to Bitcoin and without a mod, I do not expect them to be approved. I suggest changing the name of the sub-board for something related to Bitcoin, and collecting +30 topics within Last 90 days, things like technical section, wallets, beginners and help.
I applaud your understanding @ hugeblack in our quest to attain more sub-boards, it is important that we should not undermine our motives of being in bitcointalk as our intentions is to promote and secure our interest on bitcoin and bitcoin related activities. So creating more sub-boards in regard to the suggestion that is being listed by @agbe and legendary charles-tim may not really be necessary, the only reason I believe the sub-board should be created is only in respect of jam packed topics and threads due to the massive growth in the Nigeria local board.

Overall, I am happy with the level of activity in the Nigerian Board and I hope they get a new mod soon. It seems like a community that is growing well and it is an opportunity to see more Africans here.

Sure, we hope to get a moderator soon as it will aid in the success of the Nigerian local board and bring Nigerians more closer to one another both by interactions and suggestions towards creating an enabling system that will be favorable to all. So we do hope for a moderator or rather moderators due to our increased growth on this forum.

Yeah aside the thoughts you've outlined, I also feel that since Satoshi Nakamoto which I assume isn't one person has recorded huge success since the introduction of this digital electronic currency called bitcoin, why can't satoshi himself or theirself  as the case may be reveal his or their identity I mean it will be very good for people to know who satoshi is so that they can offer help to him or them on more ideas to improve the authenticity of bitcoin or rather sort help on how to ascertain an incredible success in acquiring bitcoins.

These has always been my thoughts for a long time that Satoshi Nakamoto being an anonymous person or group should rather reveal their identity in other for people to be more confident about the use of bitcoin and moreover if an issue comes up so that we can know the right people to channel our complaints to.

You see inasmuch as humans are concerned, we all believe mostly on things we see and experience with our physical eyes as some persons who might want to develop interest in bitcoin may begin to wonder why Satoshi can't reveal his or their identity, then what if anything happens to bitcoin tomorrow who would they run to for help or for ideas on how to revive it. Satoshi being anonymous has made billionaires not to have much interest in investing on bitcoin because they are afraid whether it's future will be sustainable.

I thought I would see PSG win against Milan. But PSG were unlucky. Even after dominating the entire match, PSG could not win. PSG played badly I wouldn't say that. They had 70% of the ball possession and were able to attack a lot. Even so, they were defeated in the end.

If not that AC Milan have lost form for so many years now we all know that AC milan has more champions league record than Paris Saints German, so I'm not surprised with the outcome of their match against Paris Saints German.

Despite PSG having more experienced and tactical players than AC milan, if you watch the match you will understand that Even though PSG has more of the ball in their possession, AC milan were more hungry to win the match as they played with an overwhelmed spirit. They show more of profession in their play and they were able to beat PSG.  PSG defense is so easy to penetrate and PSG head coach Luis Enrique has lots of works to do in the defense.

Let's be honest, we cannot say that Copenhagen is a better team compared to Manchester United. That is just not true. Manchester United is a far better team when compared to teams like Copenhagen. I do not want to offend anyone, but I think saying that Copenhagen is not a weak team is just a coping mechanism for the Manchester United fans. There was no reason for Manchester United to lose this match. There was also no reason for Manchester United to defend so poorly in this match. I think the authority of Manchester United really needs to sit down and have a talk about the coach.
Though Copenhagen isn't stronger than Manchester united but for me aside the red card of Marcus Rashford for Manchester united, Copenhagen played better than Manchester united to be realistic. Okay how about when Copenhagen visited Manchester united at old trafford, Manchester united found it difficult in that match and they scored just a lone goal to show you how strong and serious the Copenhagen side is and at the same time this is also a club that is good in their league at Denmark.

Newcastle are a well-organized and well-spirited team that play a good football. I can say they are a consistent team that means they won games they were expected to win. This is impressive considering they don't have big names in their squad, but they stay at top six of the table. appreciation and big credit to Eddie Howe who transform a group of players to a team that have character and desire.

it wont surprise me if they finish top again this season, eventhough they have another focus in Champions League, because I think they are a well-prepared team on the right track of management.
Eddie Howe's boys have been impressively in good performance this season so far despite the challenges of injuries they've been recording of a recent I still see Newcastle as a very competitive club and if not for injuries I would have vehemently staked on them to win their upcoming match because this boys plays with so much energy and team spirit. Dan Burn injury has also been a big blow to Newcastle united due to his awesome performance in their defense, Hope he recover soon and bounce back to the pitch of play.

Napoli's performance wasn't pretty bad but was just on the average, but playing against union Berlin in their home is a game everyone will expect they win because union Berlin has really been weak since this season even in their domestic league they are relegation prone.

Union Berlin has not been any better even with the champions league aswell so playing with Napoli we would expect Napoli to win but it's was even looking like Napoli at some point struggled with Berlin in their yesterday's game, but then Napoli bis now second on their group and still have a good chance to qualify regardless of the draw, the target has been for them to qualify for the next round of the UCL of which they seem to have achieved.

In football, no team ought to be underrated. Like if not for more experienced and tactical players that some clubs possess do you think that teams will be better than each other? Like are there not eleven players between the both clubs? So far as football is concerned, changes are meant to occur so no matter how much match a club loses they can still surprisingly do better when they face a stronger side.

Though Napoli is far stronger than Union Berlin in the sense that they've had much more champions league experience than Union Berlin. So at least they didn't loss the match so it's a nice one for the club.
1187  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever been a gambling addict? on: November 09, 2023, 03:55:35 PM
Yes! I've been a gambling addict but that was a long time ago and I must say it was one of the worst things that's ever happened to me as an individual. But luckily for me I was able to save myself from gambling addiction after I gambled with every remaining money in my possession and had to go hungry for over 24 hours before I was saved by a relative who helped me financially to get food for myself. After that very day, I made the decision to reduce my gambling activities to the barest minimum and gamble responsibly whenever I want to.

Being so addicted to gambling is a situation that anyone wouldn't want to be involved in, me too I have been an addicted gambler before. Like to be honest it affected both my physical and psychological health.

 I gamble with almost everything I have, I gamble with my laptop, phones, shoes like every damn fucking thing I have until a day I met a friend and told him to borrow me money while I use my certificate as collateral, he was so amazed and was incusitive to know the reason why I wanted to use my certificate as collateral in other to borrow money, so i now told him that there is a sure game I wanted to play. He became so angry and began to remind me of the stress and huddles we passed through during tertiary institution, that I should value my certificate and let nothing should lead me to gamble with my certificate. I started crying and told him how I have been so addicted to gambling to the extent that I sell almost anything at sight just to play gamble. He advised me and gave me some money so after thinking about the things he told me I began to reduce my urge for gambling so on no account should anyone gamble to the extent of being too addicted.
1188  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: November 09, 2023, 02:57:51 AM
As a beginner who just start investing on Bitcoin I don't think looking for the right dip before investing on Bitcoin is the right decision because you could end up not investing on Bitcoin at all, but however one of the challenges of most beginners is that they always feel that price of Bitcoin has gone way beyond there reach, on the contrary it doesn't work that way because you could accumulate Bitcoin with any amount you feel is well suitable for you.
Overtime, one of the major challenges an investor encounters is fear, because as the price of bitcoin is becoming high and due to it volatility changes are meant to occur by either dipping on increasing so the challenge that a beginner faces is the fear that they might buy bitcoin at a high price and peradventure it dips so the fear of dipping after the have bought it in high price can't be overestimated.


However a friend of mine had similar experience as you, however he was influenced by speculation about Bitcoin that it will drop from when it was $27k to $24 so he decided to wait for the dip so that he could start accumulating but little did be know that Bitcoin price movement can never be predicted so however instead of the price to dip it continues rising and now he began to imagine how much Bitcoin he would have accumulated by now if had utilized the opportunity then.

Similarly, another challenge of buying and HODLING is speculation as due to the fact that a lot of experts are making predictions of the price falling due to unforseen circumstances might make a beginner to pause before accumulating and it the quest of waiting for the the price to dip it now increases instead, so no matter the price of bitcoin as a beginner what you need do is keep buying and hodling and possibly apply the use of the dca method.

So perhaps during the time you were busy trying to identify the dip, if you had channel the energy on accumulating Bitcoin by now you would have a reason to smile while watching your investment.

That's the more reason we need to keep buying and hodling even if it doesn't dip as the future of bitcoin is unpredictable, it might really keep increasing like looking back from January when the price was around $20,000 and now that the price is around $36,468.10USD so you can speculate the price in 3-5 years and see the growth.

1190  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Do not invest in Bitcoin with a borrowed money on: November 09, 2023, 01:52:23 AM
OP you talk well o. Imagine say person go borrow money to invest in Bitcoin then e con loose omoh na double wahala o. One him no get money of him own and secondly him now go pay person wey e owe. And the way things go just choke am for neck that period because the person go they pressure am to pay back the money. I wonder weting they give that person mind to think say him go fit tell weting go be the price of Bitcoin. Normally them done talk am say make person no invest money wey e no wan loose for Bicoin and that borrowed money nah money wey person no go like loose. So e no they advisable at all unless say the person they assured say him no they hope for return of investment to use pay the person back maybe nah from money him they expect sooner. At least that one they understandable.

Even borrowing itself is a risk whether you borrow to invest or you borrow to start up a business anything pertaining borrowing is risky even when an interest is not involved. We should understand that borrowing takes someone's financial planning backwards because if you borrow money to open a business, and as you are doing the business that's how you're repaying the money you borrowed what if peradventure the business collapses and you've not finish repaying all the money you borrowed coupled with inability for you to meet up your daily needs since you no longer have a means of livelihood after the collapse of your business how can you be able to cope in such situations.

It is necessary for us to understand that sometimes borrowing favors people in the sense that you may be introduced into a business that will pay as quick as you invest in it and then you take a risk and borrow money then you invest in that particular business and luckily you start succeeding in the business then you can return the money being borrowed while your business still stands.

But however, most times borrowing draws us backwards as instead of thinking about things you can do with money in the future, you will start thinking of paying previous debts you have incurred. And again people run into depression when they are unable to settle an outstanding debt they borrowed, sometimes one can even be so emotional of not being able to settle their debts and may certainly fall ill due to thinking and calculations of how to settle debts.

Arsenal is giving an awesome display at the Emirates stadium, they are leading sevilla by 1:0 in the first half goal scored by trossard in the 29th minutes and his goal was assisted by Saka. Sometimes the way these teams behaves is so astonishing. Arsenal that people were thinking that they would find it hard in this game is now leading Sevilla in the first half. See how Arsenal players are playing with so much energy in this match. Just hope the final outcome of this match will still be in favor of Arsenal.

Borrusia Dortmund is supreme over Newcastle United, beating them twice is just the message needed to be deliver. Edin Terzic proven to be superior to Eddie Howe, who is unable to withstand the mounting pressure on his team. If we look at the Magpies' previous games, we can see that they are only competitive in the EPL and are in strong positions on the table, but when it comes to UEFA games, they are the least club now in Group F. Newcastle United cannot withstand the burden of UEFA games because they have suffered two consecutive defeats.

Though of a truth Borrusia Dortmund is bigger than Newcastle due to the fact that they've had more champions league experience than Newcastle and they also have tactical and more experienced players than Newcastle and they are also in good form in their league but Newcastle losing that match to Borrusia Dortmund was just as a result of the injury that some key players of Newcastle got and the most recent one being the injury of their key defender Dan Burn so they were really unfortunate in their match with Borrusia Dortmund though they would have done more better despite the absence of their key players.

Arsenal's team will not win against Sevilla very easily. Sevilla's performance is very erratic. But this group cannot be called weak now. Arsenal's attack will definitely need to play well if they want to win. Breaking down Sevilla's defense will be challenging for Arsenal's players in this match.
Definitely Arsenal wouldn't find it easy in their match against sevilla today but however they should be able to get at least a draw in this game in other to upgrade their chances of qualifying for the round of 16. Arsenal have lost their last two matches, one against Westham in the league cup where they lost 3:1 and also lost 1:0 to Newcastle united in the premier league.

Though Arsenal is faced with so much injury woes with Gabriel Jesus being ruled out due to hamstring injury and Martin Odegaard not certain if he will be featured in the Match against Sevilla this night. Arsenal isn't really gonna find it easy tonight but losing three straight matches may not turn out well for the club so they need to defend their win against Sevilla in their last meeting when Arsenal won them 2:1.

Op, I disagree with for this thing way you talk like this, because for the smart work, you need dey very hard working before you go fit dey comot money online dey put for your bank account, to make $1 online no easy. If you no dey hard-working you no fit achieve that thing way go dey give you money for the smart way. E get some smart work(online) way go require you to dey committed before you go fit to see money, but if you no dey hard working you no fit dey committed to dey get money for that online work.

You're right, smartness requires hardwork before it can work as if you don't work hard your efforts may just be limited, you wont go extra miles to makes things work out well for you. Okay let's take for example now this forum that we are in do you think it's an easy task? Sometimes before you post here you will first of all go through other people topics and comment to see that you don't copy another person.

Do you think it's easy? What about campaign Jobs, you need good and quality post before your campaign manager can retain you in his campaign is it easy to make good and constructive posts here? So you will find out that most of us here go extra miles to do research about things before we unleash it to the public.

 Some of us spend hours to make constructive and informative topics before we post it so there is no easy road to success, every successful person works real hard, okay what about now other people are enjoying there sleep but we are awake looking for a way to meet up our targets here. Isn't that hardwork?

Barcelona has been rumored already started to hunt the new striker to replace him at this moment. Some top strikers being linked to the barcelona but the only main question is where did barcelona get money to buy a new striiker?
So many player will be leaving with free agent like marcos alonso and sergi roberto. Barcelona is out of money and the club can only sell its young talented players. I think that barcelona shall not be so stupid by use everything to buy the new players.

Robert Lewandoski has been a very vital player you can attest his performance for Bayern Munich but initially now his performance is really dropping in Barcelona maybe it might be due to the fact that his ageing so I think Barcelona needs to sort for a replacement despite there financial constraints, they still need tactical strikers that can be able to do the finishing for them.

The price of players these days is enough in making barcelona to be bankrup for a few years later. Barcelona will let more players to leave with free agent instead of selling them all for money. This is a disaster.
Lewandowski is old and his performance is dropping drastically. Barcelona will be running out of its money. The club is slowly but surely moving to the its end. Barcelona shall stop to think about how to buy the new players.
This club has worst money management.
The growth of club most time is dependent on how much you spent on buying experience players that will help change the game play for your team so telling them to stop buying players is as equal as telling the club to stop existing so for me Barcelona is a great club with talented players, they need more concentration on their forwards because their finishing is very poor, their defenders doesn't slack too much as Barcelona doesn't concede much goals in their matches I think Xavi needs to focus his interest in the strikers that where the problem is if their strikers can perform better then they're good to go however, Barcelona is still in good form so far this season.
1196  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: November 08, 2023, 02:04:12 AM
It is very easy to predict yesterday's match because in terms of player quality Bayern Munich is far superior and in terms of performance Munich players are also stronger so I wouldn't be surprised if Bayern Munich were able to beat Dortmund and if we say about the Bundesliga title it seems too early because there is still Undefeated Leverkusen will be a strong challenger to Bayern Munich.

Yeah Bayern Munich has experience and tactical players no doubt about it but it takes consistency to achieve a trophy, Bayern Munich squad is almost as equal as Manchester city squad as the two clubs has extremely world class players that are ready to devour any team at sight but I just wish Bayern Leverkusen will continue in this good form so that that can end this Bayern Munich dominance in the Bundesliga as the league is becoming boring since it looks like Bayern Munich is the owner of Bundesliga because they have been claiming the trophy year in year out so if other clubs doesn't rise to challenge bayern munich then am afraid the league may not longer be interesting again.

Chris Nkumku will return from his knee injury in the second week of November and start playing for the Chelsea squad in the same manner that he did in the team's preseason games.
For the Start, Nkunku and Jackson will be playing separately in  matches until the best-performed player takes the front position.
Pochettino has plenty of work to do in utilizing the Chelsea player in terms of finishing and their defense to achieve the goal of reaching the top 4 spot this season

Pochettino really needs alot of work to do and moreover they need new signings let them sign tactical players that will be good in finishing and their defense needs to perform better, most of their matches they either concede early goals or their goals are being equalized so it is the porosity of the defense that is responsible for that so the need more improvement in their defense.

Chris Nkunku returning from injury may not make any difference to the team if they continue with the pattern they've been playing with. Nkunku performance in the preseason may not be as easy in the premier league because most teams doesn't even take preseason seriously as most teams doesn't play their league with same pattern they play in preseason but whichever way it is we hope he brings his best as he's returning from injury.

This group is a hardest one in Champions League this season. The surprising good performances from Newcastle United makes the group more unpredictable. In the previous match day in this group, PSG took the lead by beating AC Milan in Paris at their home stadium. Today with this defeat in Milan, PSG will have next very difficult matches.

For sure Group F is the most difficult group in the Champions league, we have PSG, AC Milan, Dortmund, and Newcastle united that has taken England by surprise since last season. All these clubs I've mentioned are doing well is their various divisions so predicting their matches is more or less a very complex one though Newcastle united seems a little bit disappointed as most of their key players have been absent due to various degrees of injuries. Losing their great defender Dan Burn to injury on Saturday was also one thing that led to their defeat in Dortmund but however, all the clubs in group F are doing well.
Even AC Milan that people almost lost hope on that they might not be able to make it to round of 16 due to their performance in the champions league have now taken everyone by surprise winning Paris Saints German by 2:1 yesterday.

In this group, with so far results and gaps amongst four clubs, every club can be out from the Round of 16 at the final day. One win or one defeat in this group will change a club ranking a lot. Last two match days will be so hard for all engaged clubs and no guarantee that PSG will be qualified for a next phase.

All the team in Group F will be fighting for who will qualify for the round of 16 because due to their various performance so far we can gladly say that almost all of them are equal in performance so the tense is more in this group because it will be difficult to predict who will qualify for the round of 16 as anyone of them can qualify.
1199  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: November 07, 2023, 07:52:32 PM
Barcelona is appearing more of a defensive side on this second half of the game, as they fail to be able to create chances but rather having a more tough defense against Shakhtar Donetsk probably because they will still qualify anyways, so a loss in this match wouldn't cause much harm.

Shakhtar Donetsk aswell seem to have a good defense but are playing an offensive attack as their confidence seem to be high as they are already leading by a goal so they are trying to defend their goal and at same time see if they could possibly secure another goal, Shakhtar Donetsk may possibly stand a chance to qualify if they happen to win against Barcelona tonight, as they will be up by three point thereby making them have Nine points, they will be three points ahead of Porto to stay at the second position on the table.


This is the reason why I love football as unpredictable things are prone to happen, who would have believed that Barcelona will be struggling in this match against Shakhtar Donetsk. Shakhtar Donetsk were able to maintain the lead all the way from first half and at last they secured three points in this match. It's really an awesome performance by Shakhtar Donetsk tonight and they defended their goal very well and from the look of things they might possibly qualify if FC Porto loses their matches though it isn't certain as FC porto is also devoted to qualifying for the round of 16. Nothing frustrate a stronger team than their opponent defense being unable to be penetrated after they've taken a lead.

The game doesn't matter the team that dominated full time, what matters are the goals scored, that's the team that stand to secure three points. Watching the highlights and the opportunities Real Madrid failed to convert the ball to goals was hugh loss for the team. Real Madrid dropped points against an average team and that wouldn't have count for them, though it was consider as deadlock were they struggled and couldn't break differences. Rayo Vallecano was 100% ready for them and absorbed every attempts levelled towards them, Carlo Ancelotti was kind of disappointed but he will try again in next game.

Sometimes in football things doesn't actually work the way we think, Carlo Ancelotti boys played a very good game just that luck wasn't on their side at all, they played with so much energy but they couldn't beat Rayo Vallecano and besides Vallecano's boys were very impressive in their defense hence making it difficult for Madrid to sail through.

Both Bellingham and Vinicius Jr were unable to find the back of the net as they all looked frustrated by both Rayo's defenders and their goal keeper who also performed very impressively in saving goals. It was really a frustrating night for Madrid as they have surrendered the top of the league to a consistent Girona who also won there match against Osasuna by 2:4 on Saturday. Girona is now topping the la liga table by 31 points, two points ahead of Real Madrid who has 29 points after the draw with Rayo.
