201  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Edward Snowden Final Warning for Bitcoin on: May 07, 2024, 07:41:02 PM
...sorry Edward Snowden, we know you mean good but for now, convenience is king.
Oh wow, you did say that! I wouldn’t have expected it from you but it’s okay, you’re allowed.

Still, it’s better to not risk convince with best fit. Bitcoin and the many services of its kind exists as revolutionary, tends to question the status quo, models to doing things as well as introducing new models to achieving previous means to transacting.

Bitcoin was made to be decentralized which in many ways speaks anonymity and in turn privacy. Hence, not having privacy as some critical level of the innovation as an oversight that shouldn’t be allowed to persist. These are security levels for an ordinary Bitcoin investor.

Crystal Palace first, they scored five goals against Westham United, and then  Manchester United victory what is happening to Crystal Palace. Crystal Palace is on fire. If they could have done this earlier rather than now, they would be in a very good place in the rankings. By the way, they also had wins against Liverpool in the last five matches. There is a lot to be said for Manchester United. Even though Erig Tan Hag had very expensive players, they could not meet the expectations.
The season is coming to an end and teams are looking to make the most of their last games before the fixtures are over. Crystal Palace did surprise me with that score line today, I thought Bruno would have been able to come up with a goal for Manchester United but, the whole team just wasn’t able to produce anything spectacular tonight. Ten Hag might as well be ready to lose his job as season ends, Manchester United remains a terrible team still and not even having to buy players to add to this addition would save the team. The teams morale is really low and they need a coach that could boost that up.

You obviously shouldn’t force anyone to do anything, that would make you a tyrant!

Bitcoin or investment as a whole isn’t something you force people to get involved with, you can’t do that in the real sense of the word but, there are ways you can talk to someone and you make them feel as though, they are loosing out to have not taken up the investment opportunity your offering to them, it’s more like, manipulating their minds to think that, they’ve got no choice in this for real.

Well, they technically would be loosing out to have not invested but, you let them find means to come to that conclusion. Even with you having to tutor them, you encourage them to do there own research and only get to invest after they are satisfied that it’s what they would like to be involved with.

If you want answer without all the data Haaland or Palmer in GW37, I would go Haaland since he seems on the rise while Palmer seems a bit less dangerous these days.
See told you guys Haaland is looking dangerous again. Now these 4 goals from him actually make me wanna skip on captaining him. Chasing past points rarely works in FPL, he will be no. 1 transfer target and everyone will give him captain band now. And then he will proceed and get us 5 points or something like that. What is worse I don't really have a choice, I will have to give him captain band just in case to defend my position.
Yeah you did and sure you’re getting the last laugh of this round, had him on your team, captained him and there he was with 4 goals to show for it. I just couldn’t believe it but he did come to show his quality once more. I would have loved to have him on my team right now, probably will but, am having difficulty believing in any consistence performance from him, like you said, he could go ahead to give us 5 points but, with a DG at the corner, he could be a right idea I think. Palmer of Isak is an option on the side, their individual teams are scoring lots of goals at the moment and you could always trust them to be in on it the goals or creativity.

Arsenal is really having a wonderful time in this second half, as they are all on the ball despite two good opportunities that was lost. Oh shiit... Gabriel  just played a powerful shot inside the back of the net but it was canceled by VAR, because he was offside. The game is on the 88th minutes and it is still 2-0.
I think everyone will guess easily that against Bournemouth it is not difficult for Arsenal, but after this match they will face Manchester United which might be more difficult than Bournemouth, Arsenal needs to wipe out the remaining matches with a win but besides that they also need Waiting for Manchester City to suffer one defeat so they can easily win the EPL title this season, I think Arteta has tried to pressure his team to play as hard as possible so they can finish the remaining matches with good results.
Even then still, I think Arsenal would find a way to win. They’ve got there eyes fixed on the EPL trophy and Arteta with his team knows better than to let loose any good opportunity and that’s what the Arsenal team is about now, taking chances and bagging all 3 points in this game.
Their game with Bournemouth was smooth, they showed dominance all game. The penalty offense was a close one really, K. Havertz did his utmost to ensure contact between himself and Travers, getting the contact and there was only one way the call could go which is, a penalty for Arsenal.
Many other chances was created in the game but, the Gabriel disallowed goal would have been something if it counted, too bad Havertz was offside and had contested for the ball earlier.
Rice again on the score sheet, nice play from him today.

Has anyone (especially the person in question mentioned in the thread) ever reported the locked thread they cannot reply in to the moderators and what was the outcome?
This reminds me of actual situations where you need to have someone standing in as the accuser to have a case. It mustn’t be the affected person or user in this case but the user would be willing to come forth for the case to continue.

I think users who are most affected by this policy and such acts from other users should come in and post their support to this notion about locked threads on the reputation board. It’s a board where one’s reputation is been put to question and having a say where you’re mentioned seems to not be of utmost necessity.

It could be really one sided when your not allowed a word on a course, especially when you’ve got one.
207  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How my gambling life started. on: May 04, 2024, 10:50:07 AM
Your experience is not unique. I think majority of gamblers started that way. If not card games then some coinflips. The whole point is that the exposure started with people whom you know personally from childhood to your student days and then your adult life.

You’re right, it’s not a unique situation as most persons unconsciously started gambling with this method. The games might be different but, followed similar pathway to getting introduced into the game. Next, a gambling habit develops.

Gambling though existed prior to your time, this I’m certain of. Right from the BC and AD, gambling have surfaced, been regulated and even taxed. It’s only recently taken a different fold due to the innovations of our time, despite how it’s differently regarded by persons of different culture and popular beliefs, gambling has been with us still.

Now that we eventually realize the inherent activity we’ve been involved in from an early stage, we have to develop a means of control on how it impacts us else, we would be lost.

@trofo - as usual you ignored my question. This season you're just greedy with tips.
Didn't ignore it, I thought you were asking for GW37. I don't think anybody would ever use a TC chip on single GW so I shelved it to answer after all info is known. If you want answer without all the data Haaland or Palmer in GW37, I would go Haaland since he seems on the rise while Palmer seems a bit less dangerous these days.
Haaland on the rise… Just what has he done lately to be on the rise? I’m like last season, I just don’t see Haaland doing any good as much as Isak would do in this GW or the coming GWs. As for Palmer, he might have under performed in his last 2 games but, being the star man for Chelsea puts him in the spotlight to lit the team and his been sought out by most of his team mates now. For Manchester City, I think that person is Foden right now although, Pep’s player rotation can greatly surprise your picked team.

Forgot to do the necessary changes to my team yesterday and was busy watching the Everton game not knowing I had missed my transfer Deadline. All I can do now is hang on to hope!

Well but 4 months is a laugh, and he won't go to prison, it's all a consequence of a pact. Although if we think about it more broadly this is part of an attack on privacy, for which it seems to be money laundering anything that has to do with protecting it. And the bad news is that it seems to me that this has only just begun.
It’s more like a plight for the government to have an in on the affairs of exchanges out there where the centralized exchanges would be obligated to allow government agencies have absolute control of exchanges by some policy. Binance is centralized and would always be liable to certain attacks.
Everything just plays in line with, you get too big, you become a game for the government to concentrate their attacks on.

While it might be just 4months sentencing, it should rekindle in the minds of users the risk associated with having your asset left hanging on centralized exchanges. I swipe of the sickle and your cut off from your asset.

Have you noticed that whenever someone complain or there is an incident of scam they is always a role that was played by the person in that happening
Of course, you must have a role to play that results in an incident else, there wouldn’t be any incident in the first place.

Now, how do you treat an infection, you cut it right from the source. That’s because if you don’t and rather give it a surface treatment, you’ll just have another grow in its place.
Well, this ain’t an infection but, it could be approached in the same way in its treatment. Yeah, you don’t get to get Al scammers from the internet but, it’s the bases that guides our having to teach the young once to be patriotic and morally abide in virtues that would make the space we occupy, either online or offline a safe place to exist.
The surface treat of exposing scam schemes, scam bursting, creating awareness and more would help but, we need to teach our next generation too that these aren’t worth practicing.
211  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: My Thanks To All forum members on: May 03, 2024, 10:09:27 AM

As much as I might appreciate you to have done well for yourself, scaling some of the ranks here, have got a sense of belong and learned in a way that it doesn’t reflect you just on the forum but in life as well, I will also like to let you know that, these kind of posts don’t do much good to this board.

There was a time we had users that saw the need to celebrate this and that and those users where mostly attacked or seen to be fishing for merit, people had different take on these topics though but, it brought about the need to create a mega thread for users with the need to celebrate or note an event. The thread is on the reputation board, Announce your rank up, merit or any achievement that makes you feel great! by BitcoinGirl.Club. This was in an attempt to reduce low quality posts and avoid opening windows for spammers to take over the thread.
So yeah, just imagine if every other beginner comes up with this sort of thread, we might as well have a problem on our hands.
While this might not be a merit or rank up event, am pretty sure it’s you talking about some achievement that made you feel great, hence it’s a good fit on that thread.

I would advise that you lock this thread and in future, make use of the referenced thread. It’s more appropriate and welcoming.
212  Economy / Speculation / Re: After the dip in crypto, when are we expecting ath? on: May 03, 2024, 09:49:38 AM
With the information I gathered about cryptocurrency, I had interest and decided to buy some coins.
Being fully aware of the volatility of these coins, I was patient and did not panic as their were various degrees of ups and down and was told that this year is the best time to invest in crytocurrency due to the bitcoin halving which has taken place. I have been watching my coins dropping everyday in value thereby inducing fear in me as the value of what I invested has been on the continuous decline.
I do not know how soon they will begin to rise again.
I just hope you haven’t been gathering all the wrong information that would allow you to entertain fear.

Firstly, I’ll like to bring to your consciousness that Bitcoin isn’t a get rich quick scheme and it’s advised that you invest with spare money, not because your going to loose it but, to give you that freewill about your little inputs as investment.

Haven’t said that, there isn’t any definite time for the bulls to come into the market although, available statistics of how long it took the bulls to push price towards an ATH after a halving is roughly a year and few weeks.
You just have no reason to be scared about making profit, it doesn’t matter if price dumps, just know volatility is a part of the market and it would rise when the time is due. What you need is patience not to liquidate your asset based on current market situations. Instead, buy when the market is low.

When you say coin in OP, hope what your referring to is Bitcoin otherwise, all that I’ve said so far doesn’t apply.
213  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Merit decay on: May 03, 2024, 09:35:33 AM
I've got to find out that there are some profiles that have received whole lots of merits but some of those profiles don't circulate their sendable merits to others profiles thereby allowing the sendable merits to decay and become worthless.
Oh that’s interesting. Exactly how were you able to make these deductions that after earning merits and got them Smerits, it varnishes over time if not used in meriting?

Mind you, you don’t get to see a users Smerit although, you could make some calculations to it from provided data in bpip.org but still, you wouldn’t be accurate always as there could have been some merit activities within a time frame that are washed up after the range.

So how are you finding these data and getting these conclusions.

The reason for sendable merits is for a user to send to other profiles in which they find their posts of good qualities and of Meritable standards but I wonder why some users choose to hoard this sendable merits and allowing it to vanish with time.
Is it a good habit to allow one's sendable merits to decay?
Smerits aren’t sent to profiles, that’s not accurate. They are sent on posts and it is reflected on the post while, accumulated on your profile’s merit log.

A reason why merit are not sent very often is the reverse of what you’ve captioned in your last statement. Posts not being of good quality or meritable standard by a user’s judgement.
214  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BC.Game 🦁 Fantasy Premier League Pool ⚽ Discussion Thread on: May 03, 2024, 09:02:30 AM
Come on Palmer, do something...

I cant see the game but when i see the result i think, ok lets see what Palmer do.... and for my surprise no goal and no assits super sad, and more sad having Son in my team also doing nothing in the match.

Totenham say goodbye to UCL i think after this result.
It’s strange indeed for Palmer not to perform in a DG, perhaps it’s due to his being out in GW35 but he seemed really fit and pretty determined though, his plays and quick thinking yesterday was right and precise. Trying to get most of the passes and direct the game for Chelsea. Palmer nearly assisted Mudryk from one of his runs but, Mudryk didn’t get his R2 right. It was close but, off target. It was a waste of captaincy still, could have gone with Isak.

You missed Nicholas Jackson, he scored today against Tottenham, but it still does not take him out of the group of players who were expected to really perform this season but ended up disappointing us who had him at one point.

 If Nicolas Jackson had actually converted all the missed opportunities he had to score, he will be among the candidates currently for the golden boot. Next season may be better for him.
Maybe, just maybe next season else, his just wan terrible attacker. He really needs to build something with Palmer if he hopes to do better or shine. Lots and lots of shooting practice and quick thinking when facing the goalkeeper. That’s what he needs, his positioning ain’t all that bad and his been looked for but, his just got bad finishing, so unreliable but, next season though. Chelsea still needs to sign a proper striker.
215  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: 1xbit violated self exclusion terms, do not want to help on: May 02, 2024, 10:06:42 AM
I contact live chat now again today to ask for history of my live chat so that I can have extra proof that I contacted them more then once through live chat to be self excluded to make my case even more stronger - they say it's not possible to send me a history of the live chat, that they do not keep this.

Competely unbelievable. I know all the warnings about this casino but I never had a problem with them and they were actually so nice but this right now is extremely bad customer service.
Am I in the right here or wrong guys?
You never had a problem with them, well now you do and no matter how terrible it may seem, you’re really in it for good. A site that didn’t give much attention to what was been said about it on the forum is a site that wouldn’t give much attention to what you think or say of them as well.
It doesn’t make them any better though, I think they really ought to prioritize their customers here and anywhere they get most of their traffic from as, customers constitute a vital part to their existence.

it’s dumb though, the thing you did. Having issues with a site and yet seeking proof to query them with from them? How does that sound! They obviously wouldn’t hand it to you but, having a term to its policy means, they’ve got something to abide by and going around this to loss a customer isn’t helping the site.

Granada surprised all betting fans this week by defeating Osasuna 3-0.
Osasuna isn’t Real Madrid, Barcelona, Girona or Atlectico Madrid. I think these are the top qualities of the game that, given the right squad and injury free team, they could undo any mid tier team. Although, there are always chances for the unexpected but then, in a fixture between Granada and Osasuna, I think the result is very much open to either side and you can tell, Granada having to lose any game at this time wouldn’t do them any good. A team that is within the relegation zone is a team that you could expect to be fierce and would play their best in every game just to hold on to whatever hop they’ve got. That is Granada at this time, they need to keep their heads up and that’s what they are up to with the win against Osasuna.
217  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: May 02, 2024, 09:37:18 AM
Even Chelsea win all the rest matches, they still not able to enter Europa League.

Tottenham lost against Arsenal, Newcastle, Fulham and Wolves, only Arsenal is strong, while the other are mediocre teams, but they able to beat Tottenham.

Although Chelsea was humiliated by Manchester City and Arsenal, but Chelsea was lack of Palmer. Now in this match Palmer will back to the pitch, so I believe Chelsea will high likely win.
Wolves is a team that has been so unpredictable especially when they meet elite teams. They always come on the pitch to prove a point and most times, these guys ends up doing the unexpected. When they play a team that is at their grade of performance, mid tier teams, you don’t often find them just as good.
Newcastle I would say, have been good lately, their goal scoring have very much improved. They could be seen as a good team, they don’t really fit to that mediocre qualification right now.

Still, Palmer is the Chelsea now, his one man you can rely on to come up with some brilliance in a Chelsea game, he makes the rest of his team looks stupïd but that’s about it. They would have to play Spurs soon and I hope to see him show great qualities, running into spaces and getting the finishes as that man Jackson can’t do no good.
218  Economy / Economics / Re: Starting a business without capital. on: May 02, 2024, 09:30:23 AM
Well you are right affiliate marketing is a good way to earn, but you need to be more skillful because you need to be trusted by the person you work with. It needs time and it needs more effort because people will not directly trust you it needs skills on communication. And this process of earning will not make you a big profit because people now a days is always looking for a low price product.
When you don’t have the capital to start a trade, your skill set because what you could rely on to aid you get into that trade and persist. Even so, you don’t just start affiliate market with just your voice, to archive this you need to go out there and not just out there, go to a place where you could find your prospective customers. You don’t go to a place where you’ve got low income earners and advertise a Ferrari for sale, of course you wouldn’t make any sales there but, obviously those that can afford such luxury aren’t found hanging on the streets.

This is where certain gadgets come into play and even those needs capital to acquire. Perhaps your not having to purchase and resell the product but, you need certain gadgets to properly package and capture sides to your product and the right platform to display them. These things are cost inclusive and could count as your capital too. You would still need some money to push forward in a line.

We have come to a time where it has become harder and more complicated to earn money due to expensive living costs.
The economy has turned in ways no one would have imagined it possible or could possibly be prepared for but, you owe yourself your survival through these trying times. It doesn’t matter what the government might have planned or proposed on paper as, these does not constitute all there is which could result in the failure or success of a budget. Mostly, the human elements as per government looters aren’t taken into account in these budgets as, it’s an element that ought not to be but, they remain an integral part to the failure or success of a budget. It would be ridiculous to have corrupt officials consideration in a budget system but, these corrupt guys within the ranks of government have made governance uneasy and the life’s of its people difficult.

To survive, you need to employ a lot of strategy which could result in having to cut cost and increasing your streams of income as well.
220  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: cash out or let it ride? on: May 02, 2024, 08:59:01 AM
I don’t play games to cash out, it’s hardly been an option for me although, I’ve had to wish I did on few occasions but, it’s gambling, some times you loss and other times, you get to win.

With the presented bet and haven’t been given 50% of my original win, I think I would cash out on this one. 50% seems like a lot and looking at the risk odd wise, I think it’s the most on your stakes and that presents it to be a high risk game, a game I wouldn’t want to wait for. I’ll cash out on this one except, there is something i know that could serve as some guarantee.

Perhaps I would stake with $5k afterwards to see how it plays out but, that’ll be after I have cash out 50% of my original win.
