I don't think any serious Bitcoin enthusiast would endorse centralized exchanges. Decentralized Bitcoin exchanges existed prior to the dominance of centralized exchanges, and the primary reason for the latter's growth is their proficiency in marketing and promotions, as well as their ability to influence politicians and gain their favor to operate in a given country. Additionally, since the world is already entrenched in the banking system, many individuals prefer the ease of use of centralized exchanges. However, the drawbacks of centralized exchanges far outweigh any benefits they may offer.

Another reason why I think Centralized exchanges are everywhere is that the pseudonymous nature of Bitcoin makes it difficult for governments to regulate transactions,  they prefer centralized exchanges where they can quickly verify users' identities and transactions and freeze assets if necessary. Governments understand that they cannot control coins that are unidentifiable or untraceable, hence the need for centralized exchanges to silent decentralization.

I think that Real Madrid's recent struggles in La Liga are not due to a lack of effort or seriousness on their part. Rather, it seems that they have accepted their position in second place, as first place is already secured by Barcelona. However, they have encountered some difficulties lately, which I cannot pinpoint precisely because their losses have not been consecutive. For instance, the absence of Benzema due to injury may not be entirely responsible for their recent defeats in the match against Girona yesterday because the defenders gave too much space to Taty, and Vinicius was overly aggressive with the opposing team. Many unexpected events occurred during the match, which should not have happened.

Chelsea has consistently posed a challenge for Brentford in the past, however, recent performances of both teams suggest a decline in form. Chelsea has been facing consecutive losses, and the same applies to Brentford. Even if Chelsea were to win today's match against Brentford, it won't have any big impact on their current standings, as they will only move up by 3 points to a total of 43 points, and with the way the two teams sit in the table, I doubt if their fans will turn up to come and watch their teams when they are sitting in 10th and 11th place.


Why would Chelsea give up on their position so easily? They should remember that smaller awards like the MVP and monthly accolades for top players and managers also contribute to a club's ranking and value, they better turn up for their matches even if fans don't show any interest.

What if Real Madrid were to lose the first leg but then win the second leg, just like they did last season? Many people were praising Manchester City and had high expectations at that time. I will never forget the match and how Real Madrid surprised everyone by scoring in the 90+ minute, winning the game and leaving many Manchester City fans disappointed. This remarkable moment great goals scored in under three minutes, and Manchester City was sent home to the Etihad for the rest of the tournament. Don't get too exited about the Odds, it is possible that Real Madrid could repeat this feat again, or perhaps they will take the lead in both the first and second legs.
 

Haaland is overrated, but I like his strength and speed, he is just a season in England, and seems he is enjoying the short-term fame, let's see if he will continue this way in the next 5 years he signed with Manchester City.

Sevilla and Juventus have been on a hiatus from Europa, but I am rooting for them as their upcoming match holds great significance for my betting list next week. Based on their performances in Laliga and Serie A, I believe Sevilla is better equipped to safeguard a bet as compared to Juventus, who recently lost their match to Napoli and are now at a disadvantage in their quest for the Serie A title.

With Sevilla's 12th place standing in the domestic league and Juventus' third place position, Sevilla's multitasking abilities make them a formidable opponent. They excel in defense and have a knack for converting opportunities into goals, giving them a good chance to win the match, they can also win this one with ease in both first leg and second leg.

Tottenham Hotspur may be going through a rough patch at the moment, I don't believe Manchester United is as strong as you make them out to be. Their recent form has been far from consistent, with only three wins in their last six matches, two losses, and one humiliating defeat to Sevilla in the Quarterfinals, Rashford's absence may have played a role in that loss. Now that their key player Bruno Fernadez is injured, their chances of beating Tottenham have been significantly reduced, but even with this setback, they may still come out on top and secure three points to overtake Newcastle, but it's clear that Fernadez's presence would have been a major advantage for them in trouncing Tottenham.

I believe that Real Madrid's lack of interest in La Liga is evident in their recent performance against Girona, which has nothing to do with Benzema. Despite playing without any wingers, Girona managed to score 4 goals against Madrid, with just attacking midfielders supporting their striker. This indicates a failure on the part of Madrid's defensive midfielders and midfielders to hold down the opposition's attack. Madrid's potential loss to Girona after 2 seasons is a clear indication that they are not willing to invest their energy in La Liga, conceding four goals from a single player is a big slap on Real Madrid.

I think Rodrygo is not too good as a striker, he has been more of a right winger to Real Madrid, he is not versatile like Benzema which is why I think it is high time they find an alternative for Benzema anytime he doesn't play as a result of Injury, a team depending on a single striker is a ticking time bomb to the team.

Pep is a good man but I think he focuses too much training on board with a marker to players while Ancelotti does his with talking and action, I observed that very often when they go for half times in most of their games, that being said. There is much hype around Halaand as a goal machine but don't get disappointed if Real Madrid already had a plan to pin him down that could end him without any goals in this match, Ancelotti has good defensive measures and always equalized their goals even with their previous matches with Manchester City, I know this match is going to be a tough one but I have high hopes on Hala Madrid because even Bookies stake isn't making any difference between the two teams on odds.

I think Roma displayed a high level of professionalism and maturity in their ball organization, particularly in their ability to convert shots into shots on target, they should have been goals but the goalkeeper was good at saving, too many chances for Roma, but they failed to capitalize on them and only managed to score one goal. I wasn't too surprised by Atalanta's ability to score three goals, they employed a defensive midfield with five players, which allowed them to quickly dissolve Roma's pressure but when Atalanta had their chances, they easily pass Roma and make sure it is not wasted as short on target but a goal that cannot be save by the goalkeeper.

That is not entirely true. If gambling platforms require your documents or ask you to undergo KYC, it's difficult to maintain privacy. Even if you use Bitcoin to gamble, your personal information may still be requested and stored on their platforms, leaving you with little to protect. However, if you gamble on a platform that doesn't require KYC and is trustworthy, you may be able to maintain some privacy by using BTC.


Bitcoin transactions are cheaper when the network is not busy but when Bitcoin Mempool becomes congested with many transactions waiting in line for confirmations, you will find it difficult to make deposits on gambling platforms except if you want to sacrifice more on fees, which is enough to help you win something if you are lucky for that day. If I'm to prioritize fast transactions and cheap fees, I will prefer Tron for deposits on any gambling platform.

The issue at hand is not merely about having confidence in a team; rather, it is whether or not they can deliver the expected performance. Manchester United's elimination from the competition was a stark example of this. The second leg was particularly brutal as Sevilla showed them no mercy, leading by three goals to nil. In comparison, Juventus had a tighter Quarter Final with a smaller goal difference. I understand that Sporting CP proved to be a tough opponent for Juventus, but it wasn't quite as challenging as Manchester United's match against Sevilla.


When you look at recently played matches, it's quite not interesting outcomes because the goals are usually binary, always leading with 1, they have been doing this for a couple of weeks now, and it is not healthy for them, I hope they don't come in contact in similar energy with Sevilla in the midst of their injured players.

Real Madrid is very consistent with the Champions League but sometimes, I think their secret to its success is luck and effort because it was the same Chelsea they removed last season in Quarter Final and also this season but Chelsea stopped Real Madrid last two (2020/210 season in Semifinal, they have had many chances and opportunities in that Semifinals but they have been trash many times, even in knock stage, who knows what will happen this time, I just hope Machester City focus on Premier League as they are about to flip Arsenal and should leave Real Madrid this season.

It seems now that the league is coming to the end of the session, the unserious teams are woke up now, who would have thought Southampton will give Arsenal a tough head in that match, it was a match I expected Arsenal to use to boost their points but it turns not funny as I expected. For Southampton to lead the first two goals shows that their strategy works like Magic on Arsenal but their defending was not solid as well, which is why Arsenal was able to equalize that easily.


The remaining matches for Arsenal and Manchester is a 70-30% win and loss rate from their previous matches, as they are about to repeat the second leg for those matches, it will be an advantage for the two but the team I think that will survive this hot track race is Manchester City, they are very eager and producing good offensive and defensive measures in their recent matches.

Napoli has a track record of several losses against Milan, but I cannot remember the last time they conceded many goals in matches played against Napoli when Osimhen was started. In the first leg, Osimhen was struggling with an injury, but the second leg was much better, and he even scored a goal for Napoli. We cannot compare Napoli's performance in the Champions League with that of Inter. so, we should expect more goals when Milan and Inter meet for their upcoming semi-final place.


The winner of the 2023 lies in the hands of Manchester City or Real Madrid, one of the teams will surely emerge the winner from that end and whoever wins will face either Milan or Inter but I don't believe any of the two Italy teams will win the Champions League.

I don't think a team can be good enough not to lose any match, even when Messi was in Barcelona and was toping the team with his goals, they lose some matches and also concede some goals as well and also don't get to lift the trophy sometimes, it is sinusoidal wave thing but I believe they already have this season trophy tossed and safe in their gallery, they just need to keep consistency in winning their next few remaining matches.


There is no way Atletico Madrid will concede many numbers of goals right now, I'm very sure the team is good to withstand hard pressures, but even as they lost today's match, they are still closer to Real Madrid and I am very sure they will make it to the Champions League next season

This season has been rife with embarrassing moments, with some matches not worth the time or attention. I mean conceding 5 goals within the first 20 minutes of a game indicates that something went wrong. The manager should have been quick to identify and rectify the error, the manager made substitutions when the damage had been done but after that, they played well, and the next goal scored by Callcum was truly hard work of the Newcastle team.

This season isn't going well, and it seems like I'm not the only one who's noticed an unusual trend in the league. The only team that appears to be playing exceptionally well is Manchester City, with a significant lead in the number of goals scored. Based on the current state of things, it looks like they have a considerable advantage in winning the league.

Coinbase is not the only exchange that is guilty of this nonsense of suspending user's accounts, other exchanges like Binance, Kucoin, and other top-tier exchanges do this thing. I personally know a friend that had about $1750 on his Binance exchange account and they suspend the account in late 2021 without any reason, they only told him that the account is suspected of some activities and they have to review and investigate before they will release the account and till today, nothing has been done on the account.

The only lead we had as the reason why they might have suspended the account was that the guy was using VPN and it is always on his phone but that is not enough reason to block the account, if they fear US law and compliance, they should have warned him in the beginning and adjustment can be done by stop use of the VPN but all of sudden, they call for suspending of the accounts, fear centralized exchanges. 

Bitcoin's beauty lies in its ability to allow you to purchase some sats, regardless of how much one BTC is worth. but when it comes to the term of investment strategy, it is challenging to earn significant profits unless you acquire a considerable amount of BTC especially as the current price of BTC is so high, it may be difficult for an average person to afford it.

What I will advise your friend to do is that, he should try and increase the money to $100 even if he is not financially capable, it may be too small for some people but I think that is reasonable enough for some good profits when Bitcoin goes up in value and since BTC is more safer than altcoins, I will prefer he sticks to Bitcoin with his small amount and gains something tomorrow than lose everything on shitcoins.

What I fear the most for anyone who wants me to tell them how to buy Bitcoin and coming to the market at the wrong time, the wrong time in the sense that when Bitcoin continues to go low without respecting any support, those are the thing I fear because new people who have not to experience anything will find it difficult to digest loss when it is there first time. So, when anyone asks me to teach them Bitcoin, my first rule of teaching is to show them the risk involve and after that has been digested, then I will open the profits side but even at the conclusion, I make sure I centered my discussion on risk and then cover it up with the benefits of being a bitcoin holder.
