Bayern Munich clearly cannot underestimate the current Arsenal, and in my opinion don't expect a goal massacre like before because Bayern Munich squad is no longer ideal, even though Harry Kane is there, it's still not enough to silence Arsenal under Arteta control. I guarantee that this match will be very difficult for Bayern Munich to control, and Muller, who always underestimates his opponent, this time has to take back his words. For many people Arsenal may not be the favorite, but statistically the Arsenal squad playing at home is in a positive trend.
The fact is, Bayern Munich needs hard work to beat Arsenal who are in their best performance, it is not an easy job to beat a team that is performing impressively, while Bayern Munich performance itself is considered unstable this season. Overall, the strengths of Arsenal and Bayern Munich are currently fairly equal, meaning no one looks more dominant, Tuchel squad have simply had a better reputation in the Champions League, but this season Arsenal are different and they should no longer be underestimated.
Arsenal may be in their best form but that is mostly in their premiership league which is totally different from the champions league. When it comes to the champions league, a lot of things come into play and experience is at the front of the factors. Bayern Munic is obviously more experienced than Arsenal when it comes to the champions league. Arsenal have to try very hard to be able to overcome Munic that is favorite to qualify. Now that they are not likely to win their league, they will channel all their energy to the champions league unlike Arsenal that is also fighting very hard to win the English Premiership title.

I do not agree with you, Arsenal form so far is beyond the premier league, don't forget that they are also in the Champions League where they played from the group stage to the stage where they are now without their forn they will not be in the quarter finals to play against Bayern Munich, Arsenal has got a lot of form and experience in the champions league just like Bayern Munich I think the performance of Bayern should be considered right now because Arsenal may end up defeating them since they are not as strong as they use to be.

-snip-
Stuttgart chasing Bayern Munich looks impossible because they still have quite a lot of tough matches including against Bayern Munich as well as potential champions this season Bayer Leverkusen so I see there is nothing too worried about Bayern Munich's current position, but of course Bayern Munich hopes to win against Borussia Dortmund and indeed it will be quite difficult to get if their main striker is not fit for the match, even though his position can be replaced by another player, Harry Kane's sharpness cannot be replaced by anyone else, even a striker like Serhou Guirassy striker from Stuttgart is still far behind in the number of goals compared to Harry Kane, so playing without Harry Kane seems to be playing without a goal machine for Bayern Munich.
With a difference of 4 points with Bayern Munich, I don't see that it is impossible if Bayern Munich doesn't make many changes to its performance in every remaining match this season.
It is true that Stuttgart in the remaining matches this season will face Bayern Leverkusen and Bayern Munich, but before Stuttgart faces them, Bayern Munich will first face Dortmund and Stuttgart will face Heidenheim.

If Munich loses against Dortmund and Stuttgart wins against Heidenheim, the difference between Stuttgart and Munich will be 1 point.
It's up to Bayern Munich to continue winning so that Stuttgart's position must be in its current position.
Despite this, I believe that with Bayern Munich's performance they will be able to stay in 2nd place.
I doubt too, Bayern Munich that is even aiming at catching up points with leverkusen and aren't happy with their second position in the league table which they're occupying currently, let alone giving another team "Stuttgart" the chance to take up the second position from their hands in the league table, I don't see them being that such a lazy team that would suddenly turn into a sleeping dog when they're supposed to be awake and not continue giving their best.

From the performance of Bayern Munich in the last two league matches you can see a big difference in their performance and being in a tight corner right now in the league they have nothing to do than to play above the expectation of their fans if  they want  to remain in the second position otherwise they will be dropping to the third place while Stuttgart will occupy the second position. Looking at the performance of Leverkusen it is impossible to think that Bayern Munich will catch up with them because they have few matches left to play I think their only hope should be to end in the second place and then fight to win the champions league.

There's one thing we need to be careful in when it comes to acquisition of knowledge, we shouldn't make pretense in it in such a way that when we lack the knowledge, we claim we have the knowledge, we are not deceiving anyone than ourself, its not also what we should brag or boast about because we want to impress others and depress some, afterall, the learning process is a continuous one, what we know today might have been outdated by tomorrow and if we don't learn, we cant grow and improve.

I think it is only a stupid thinker who will pretend to know what he doesn't know because it will only take a matter of time before the foolishness will cost him a great loss. When it comes to crypto related issues, is very difficult for a newbie or a person without knowledge to brag about what they know nothing about because a simple answer will expose the ignorance of the person and his ego will be brought down or the bragging will lead such person to loss since he has refused to get knowledge that he doesn't have. Growth comes with a lot of sacrifices and getting knowledge is the sacrifice you pay to get the knowledge that can help you to grow here and anywhere else.

Most newbies like me don’t understand what it implies to read to comprehend please with your awareness can you explain it to us???
I guess this thread will be useful to newbies like me and some other members out there as generously.
generally reading is a good habit most especially as it regards a field you're new to. You can't blend well into a forum as this if you don't read through post in this forum to know what's happening and the tending things that will keep you updated on the latest happening in this space but outside of that, the fact that you're a newbie by virtues of the design on this forum doesn't necessarily mean that you're new to the crypto space. Some persons like me have been in the crypto industry for a while now but only get to know about the forum not long ago and become a bit active of recent and although I'm a newbie, I don't need to read as much as a totally new person that is totally new both to the forum and the crypto space.

I have looked at contributions from most hero and legendary member of the forum and it's obvious that they contribute based on their wealth of experience in the industry and so they don't really know to read mire before giving meaningful contribution. They already know what is being discussed about and it doesn't disturb them a bit while responding to conversation on the different boards in the forum.
This is extremely unethical and can sometimes be harmful to others. I think most of the OG from this forum started as newbies in the forum, and they got huge experience by hearing what others said, and they started helping others in their field of expertise.
I also believe that some people had the knowledge of cryptocurrency before locating the forum and coming here they started off as newbies accounts by Senior or Hero member knowledge. The forum members understands that there are some informations that may not be totally true or correct that's why it is advisable that you DYOR before accepting to use an information you get here because there are some inexperienced people who give out advice of experienced people to get attention and to fish merits too.

* If you intend to start your business or you already do and are looking for the best candidate to fill the top management position, would you trust a man or a woman to handle the affairs of the business?


Before placing someone to manage the business certain things will be put into consideration before hiring a male or female manager,( 1) the nature of the business (2) The level of technical knowledge if it is a technical job (3) experience (4) the outcome of my interview with them.
Nature of the business: If it is a business that requires a lot of physical work or strength, the right choice will be a male manger but if it is a business that needs marketing or advertisement a female manager will like be my choice but if it's a business that requires someone with a good experience I will definitely choose someone with experience not minding the gender.
126  Economy / Economics / Re: Everything is over priced but people keep spending on: March 27, 2024, 06:13:48 PM
The cost of things has gone up so much so that it's glaring. Imagine paying 5-12$ for an average meal you could get before for 3$. The jump cost is extremely high. Cooking a meal at home can cost you the same amount you would spend on eating in a restaurant. Funny enough people still afford all these things without complaining. My anger is that we make money to spend it all into our normal life expenses. It's difficult now to save or invest unless you part of the rich people in society. An average man has to just eat, pay bills, and survive.
Average people could still invest or save it all comes to their ability, if they are comfortable with living just like that then it is their problem.
We could always find a way to earn extra if we want, some people take extra job just to earn more or be successful in the future, so there is no excuse for an average people not to have a savings or investment.

An average person who is not  making money to take good care of his feeding and accomodation can not afford to save up for investment and some people are already tired of complaining because the hard life of feeding from hand to mouth has become the other or the day for them as the government is not doing anything reasonable to tackle the case of inflation that has taken over the whole of the economy. You can only get an extra pay if you are opportuned to get an extra job but what happens if you live in a country where the rate of unemployment is high how would you survive.
127  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 27, 2024, 04:50:05 PM
Here is the odds given for the result of the Lazio - Juventus game:



Am I surprised with that? Not at all. I was already expecting a really close game and bookmakers are also expecting for the same thing. Maybe there is a gap of sixteen points in the standings but this is easy to misguide someone. Even though Lazio aren't performing the same as the previous season they can still make serious difficulties home. Especially while Juventus are in a bad form I wouldn't bet on them. If I place a bet my choice would be both teams to score @2.03.

But if for example Juventus is able to play well in this away match against Lazio, I think Juventus is able to end the match with a clean sheet. Indeed, based on the results of the existing head to head also at least when the match between Lazio and Juventus is like this, then the result is more often about both teams to score. But somehow, at this moment I think Juventus might not concede in this match because yes, I think Juventus also has a good defense. Therefore, then I think in this match there won't be many goals scored and betting on under goal might still be considered too but indeed, any result can still happen but I hope Juventus don't lose.
Juventus is certainly trying to win and take home 3 points when visiting Lazio headquarters. Allegri must find the right solution to bring his squad to victory, because in the last five matches Juventus have only won once. of course, it will not be easy for Juventus to secure 3 points, because Lazio also really wants these 3 points to improve their position in the standings. Statistically, Juventus has a higher chance of winning, and also the head to head record shows that Juventus deserves to be the favorite to win.

Right now it's difficult to pick Juventus as the favorite to win against Lazio from their last five games, Juventus is supposed to win looking at their position and history with Lazio but for a team that suddenly went from good to very bad performance it is very difficult to pick them as winners when they are playing from away. Lazio is not also in their best form but they have a greater chance of taking advantage of their home ground to get three points which could see them move up to 7th or 8th position ahead of Napoli and Fiorentina who is occupying the 7th and 8th Getting the three points against Juventus can also see Lazio become a contender with Roma, Atalanta, Napoli and Fiorentina who are fighting to finish in the 5th and 6th place so they can secure the Europa spot.

It depend how you use the power to governed the people because, if you use it in a positive way to make peace in the society and help the citizens to stay away from crime that will take their lives show that you are using your power positive and it will not corrupt the citizens in that particular society.

 But if you are using your power to collect land, properties, and money from people with your power show that you are using your power negatively and it will make the majority in that society to hate your leadership because you are not doing the right thing than to use your power to corrupt people in the society.

Your answwe is not in line with the discussion question which is does power really corrupt, and my personal answer is no, it onky revels a personin you that has been long hidden, its just like giving a gun to someone and the oerosn turns out to be a menace or terrorist and seem to enjoy killing even tho before handing the gun over to him he seem to have no trace of such characters, would you say the gun has corrupted him, no the gun is lifeless and has no ability to control the man, it was his decision to pull the trigger and he enjoyed it everytume he did it.
It all depend on individuals and the kind of power that is involved. There are people that has pride but you will not know and you might even think that they are humble until you give them power. Power can intoxicate so we should not be surprised and we don't give everybody power because there are still people that are going to misuse it and use it against other people.
This is one of the reasons why we don't give power to everyone because of the later effects.

A lot of people appear to be kind before going into power but once they are given the power to rule or govern they will become opposite of what they are before, several people have been seen like that nad on this ground I think people are all the same especially people with power. How do you now know the right person to give power when you know they always change with time, power corrupts and power is corrosive just like the sound of it words.
130  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Quick way to learn bitcoin trading on: March 24, 2024, 08:24:59 AM
Hi is there a quick free beginner course to learn crypto trading anyone can recommend? (no scam we`ll make you money if you give us money links please)

I think there is no quick way to learn trading.  Trading is not only about theory, but about how to analyze and decide what to do.  All things need a process and are not instant.  You may find free courses on well-known exchanges such as Binance.  They have an introduction to learn about what cryptocurrency is and how to do trade.  But that is not enough because it is very limited.  You have to increase your insight with other reading about how to carry out analysis and gain profits.  You should also try it with your own hands.  Of course you will lose some on your walk, but that's how you learn to trade.

There are ways to learn trading and that way is considered the best way, taking time to learn and practicing without being so greedy that's one of the best ways to be a quick learner in trading.In learning how to trade you will need to understand very well the basic format you should emphasize on when trading, learn when to go in and understand when you should go out. If you are able to understand and take greed out of your head, you make be getting a small profit that will expand within a short time but greed has made most traders lose so much that they now think trading is gambling.
131  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Can governments crack down on crypto? on: March 24, 2024, 08:17:53 AM
The only thing they can go on to do which is easily achievable is to place a ban on all forms of cryptocurrency and also set a fine or penalty for anyone who's found guilty of investing or having any cryptocurrency related activities.
How can you ban bitcoin? Its unstoppable, unless the government forbids all citizen of each country to use it, however does people will not use it even they say its illegal now? I think some will slipped and continously use that or migrate to a country that isnt scope of ban like El Savador and other crypto friendly countries.

Well some governments are banning certain exchanges (Belgium tried to ban Binance but they found a loophole) so you always need to be cautious. There always exchanges you can use, but cashing out to a bank account might get harder and more difficult also. Or you need to find another solution to spend your crypto.

What if the government of a certain country decides to ban all the exchanges in the country does it mean the citizens of that country who are into crypto will need to migrate to another country before they can trade their cryptocurrency, will their be an exchange which they can not come against that the citizens can rely on for their transactions, this is some of the things I find really difficult to answer with the way the government is placing attacks.

It is am obvious fact there are a lot of coins coming in to the market and Bitcoin halving is so close and alot of people are also diving in to the  market, but some thing actually triggered me creating this thread which is where I got the attention from, some one very close to me has been prioritizing coins involvement other than his health care. What are your option on this?

I think your friend needs to have a change of mindset and maybe you need to make him to understand that he needs to be healthy so he can be alive to monitor and enjoy the profit that will come out of he invested his money on anything. People should not choose money over good health because health can't be traded for anything else and someone needs to have good health before thinking straight, give your friend the best advice to work on his health before thinking about investing in any coin.
133  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is your favorites altcoins these days? on: March 24, 2024, 07:56:43 AM
I think for now it is BNB. I've always liked ETH for a long time, but because the price is currently quite high, I have to look for a potential altcoin that is cheaper, and that is BNB. Actually, there are lots of potential altcoins that could become my favorites, but for now I'm only focusing on BNB. I plan to start collecting them little by little.
why are you looking for something cheaper? Even when compared to other large altcoins, the price of BNB is still relatively high. If you are looking for something cheaper, why don't you choose MATIC TRX or XRP? I think if we talk about potential we don't need to worry about high prices.

Any one looking forward to investing in BNB should not consider the price rather consider the history of the coins since it has been in existence for some time now without falling so low like other shit coins do so apart from Bitcoin I think BNB and ETH should be among the first coins to consider before adding up any other cheap alternative coins.

Scammers are getting innovative day be day and this is not the first innovative scamming methods they are using. Recently one of the most popular scamming methods they are using is to trap user is in twitter. They are using fake twitter account and post tweet right after the first tweet. Both of the twitter account looks similar so unaware people click the link and lose all of their funds.

Scammers are way smarter than we think and the availability of social media has made their works to be carried out with ease making them to have access to do ugly things in a similar way that better things are done, scammers go as far as hacking the accounts of some celebrities and online influencers to post fake links that they use to scam their victims, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram are the most places where scammers easily scam people to avoid getting scammed people needs to avoid clicking links don't know about.

Cryptocurrency investments has nothing to do with my conscience be it memecoin or alt coin this is because before embarking on any crypto investment the risk involved is the number one thing to be put into consideration as a good investor. If you are restless in your sleep because you invested in altcoin you are new or you took loan to invest which is not good, memecoin and altcoin can give you high profits if you get lucky to invest and coin is on a pump,you will also lose when it all vanishes or it turns out to be a shitcoin which never gets to rise so it is left for you not to invest with everything you have that's when you won't be restless.
136  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What's your take? on: March 23, 2024, 05:10:09 PM
Betting on lower odd games may seem to be risk free approach on paper while it's not in the reality. As you said an underdog can beat champion sides that can change the whole dynamics of betting while it's not everyday scenario that stage of uncertainty and unpredictability keeps the gambling exciting no matter what and one who tries to outperform the system will taste the failure at the end.

You are right betting on teams with lower odds helps to reduce the risk involved in the outcome of the game since the selected team with lower odds has players that are far better than the other opponents which makes their possibilities of winning games more convincing on paper as you had said already but most times the unexpected result always occurs and you will see the results of the games and get angry because one team among the selected picks has lost the game and they lost against a smaller team. Most times the odds are used to deceive gamblers who don't go with the performance of the team instead they bet according to the odd
137  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 23, 2024, 04:33:04 PM
It will be very big shock if Inter Milan won't win Scudetto in this season with very big gaps they have against two biggest competitors.

Something which is so close to impossible obviously. The gap between Inter and AC Milan is now 14 points and there are 9 matches remaining only. Mathematically it is still possible for Inter to lose the scudetto if they lose 5 matches out of 9 remaining matches while on the other side AC Milan win all the 9 remaining matches. This scenario will make Inter have 88 final points while AC milan will have 89 final points. Looking at all the remaining matches of Inter, maybe AC Milan is the only one that may make lose 3 points while the other 8 matches should not be a big deal for Inter to win.

Statistically, the season is still not over, but both teams and players are now starting to think that Inter Milan won the league. Of course, nothing is guaranteed, Inter's performance may suddenly drop or something may happen, but I have accepted that they will be champions now.
Talking about which team can finish second in the league gives me more excitement now Smiley

I think every Inter Milan player and supporter should celebrate because for them the season is almost over and they have sealed the victory already as league champions, looking at the current performance of Inter Milan and the gap between them ans the second place AC Milan it is impossible for AC Milan to overtake them again since they have not failed to win league matches and they have just 9 matches to play and win in 6matches will see them win the league since they have 14 points between them and the second place team. I don't think Inter Milan will drop points that will affect or stop them from winning the league this season because they have come a long way and losing out in the champions league again will give them more concentration to focus on doing better than they have done in the previous matches.

It is very difficult for someone to point out a particular coins for the op to invest in right now because at the end of the investment doesn't go well the person's advice will be seen as evil since profit was not realized from it but since the op has seen a lot of coins which is rising due to the increase in the price of Bitcoin, the op can carry out a good research on a particular coins to know it's history and to know if it wll vanish in a short period of time or if the project will last. For any particular coins you choose to invest in remember to invest with an amount you can afford to lose and don't take loans to invest.

Alternative way for government will be if they wanna shutdown internet that is the only way and I know that is not possible since every communication requires network and internet connectivity, there is no day such thing can likely happened except for those project that are centralized.
But do you think this solution is possible? I doubt even people from the Government cant live now without the glimpse of internet. You are right thats the only way buy considering the use of internet nowadays I doubt it will ever happened. Its like a necessity now than a means to everyone.

Yes it is true the people in the government can't survive without the Internet that's true and they can not get other means to Internet when the Internet is completely shutdown unless they will come and idea to build a government owned Internet which they will use for sharing of information but that can't be possible because there's no way the government of a particular country will deny her citizens access to Internet it's not possible. The only thing they can go on to do which is easily achievable is to place a ban on all forms of cryptocurrency and also set a fine or penalty for anyone who's found guilty of investing or having any cryptocurrency related activities.
