Some friends keep bringing you back to gambling even when you decide to just be a passerby after losing your life savings 

Leaving gambling is not just what can happen overnight, you need effort to make a personal decision on it to stop and stop for real, some people after stopping they will still go back to it because they lack the discipline. It is discipline that will make you even when you have gambling app on your phone, you won't open it. So it is not about keeping your phones or laptop off internet but a discipline heart to go pass those contemplation to play.

I read a headline on the internet referring to Ali Bongo Ondimba as Gabon life president. Ali bongo has been the third president of Gabon since they were independent in 1960 and he came to office in 2009 which means he has been in office for 14 years while they are in a democratic government. Seat tight syndrome is one factor affecting the African governance system and until a democratic government becomes democratic indeed then this revolution that is gradually sweeping the shores of the west African will not abate.

Apart from the natural resources in situ in Africa soil, the leadership is very much rotten and that is why they allow neocolonialism in their midst. It is unfortunate or fortunate that all the countries that have witnessed these coups, the people are in support of the military which is a signal that the people don't feel the presence of the government because they are not those genuinely elected but were forced in or rigged their way in.

I think those are coincidence. It is the mind and emotion that brings such calculation. Except we are saying that the games are manipulated to allow players win continuously so as to encourage the gambler to play more or maybe do a huge bet after which the casino starts winning the money back from the losses of the gambler. But I still believe that those days that I win that it was my luck and if I start to lose, it all my luck. What I have to do is to decide to continue or not at the days I begin to lose.

This is my simple response. If the civilian government or democratic government have become a pain in the flesh of the people the why not stay in military regime.

Many African government are corrupt and will rig and force themselves into power. So if they are forcing themselves into power without the will of the people being allowed then it is as good as military rule. African leadership is corrupt and they won't allow for free and fair election but to manipulate themselves into power. Like in Nigeria, the presidential election conducted on 25th of February is still in tribunal court , so the legimacy of the present government in Nigeria is still in question in court.

Streamers in gambling are like commentators who are outside from where a game is played but hyping the game for others to come watch the outcome. Like we know that is the way they are seen with the heavy bet that they stake which is mostly to lure players to the site. Casinos are always in competition so streaming is an avenue to show what they can offer to new sign ups, bonuses that you get if you signed up and other marketing strategy will be displayed not only the winning alone, it is more like marketing strategy for casinos.

You simply don't believe in yourself that is why you would want to go with someone to the casino and share your bet with them to get approval of the bet you want to play. It is not bad to share your game from time to time but to always do that with the way you have said it, it means you are not a regular bettor. This is unlike those who like to keep their game secret from others, those gamblers believe they have the magic game and so won't like every other person to partake from the bet. Anyway, it is just the way we feel best and anything that is best for the winning is acceptable.

Why looking for crypto bookies when you already confirmed you are cool with stake? You have not mentioned something extra ordinary that you are looking for. Stake is one of the best in casino in the modern day gaming arena with both bitcoin and altcoins options. It covers an area of sports betting and casino games. If you have found a casino that gives you what you want then it is better to stick with it because you are sure of getting your winning when you have one

Like in 2017 when they announced the ban on trading of crypto, ico and crypto related transactions. China has been in the news as one of the most hater of bitcoin related transactions because they want their people not to promote it, I guess they are capitalizing on their population to believe some of those restrictions would affect the global influence of bitcoin.

Now the ban of gambling streaming. This will not affect the gambling population because they can still access casino ads and play in their favourite casino since there is no ban yet on the gambling itself and in any case where that is done, VPN will still be used on some casinos. The Chinese government is only depriving their citizens the benefit of freedom of choice.

In business, economy or money, manipulation is part of it. Manipulation is like the oil in the business I believe, because sometimes the market can only move with manipulation. It causes a spontaneous and unplanned decision either to invest hugely or to run out with your investment but whichever it goes the manipulator would have benefited. Like in cryptocurrency, someone can shake the market by dumping or buying hugely and cause panic. Sometimes when government print currency, that could be for some artificial purpose for a greater goin to the manipulator.


An individual, institution or government. The government can purchase in large quantity some stock they want to appreciate and that will cause people to start investing in it.

Some bettors are fond of such late betting because they want to see all the late decisions of the team on the match. Good thing is that they have introduced some options that will allow you bet that way with a reduced odd but they doesn't stop players who want such timing, they boost the odd with staking power.

I don't really like late betting because the odds reduce and I like playing with the odds when it is high as it will increase the potential and you also have lesser number game of games to bet unlike when you bet game whose odd has been reduced, because you tend to add more games and you are likely to lose.

Thinking of other thing to do is not about trading your bitcoin because that is a very risky thing to do. Trading is not to be advised because it is difficult and you can lose all your coins. It is better with hodling it or you sell it if that is the only asset you have to safe yourself from financial challenge.


The problem is not on the people but bad government. If government provide good economic incentives to do business then people will be glad to struggle in business. Incentives like soft loan or interest free loan with very low repayment percentage then businesses will fluorish. If government policies reduce taxing on small business (SME) and encourage farming by supplying fertilizers, crops the economy will improve because it will add to the GDP.

Such system of democracy contribution has gone. What happens if one of the community members disappear with the coins by selling off? This is possible with the modern world and corruption plus distrust. No body does that kind of collaboration again with a decentralized system where everyone is safeguarding their privacy. Contributions for a central purpose or purse is known with fiat and it is fast disappearing, it is not known in a decentralized system.

If you are talking about the phone, it could be referred to as network challenge or poor network and I don't think that could be called a glitch or if your phone is malfunctioning that it could be called a glitch. But in any case that the error is from your part maybe because of bad phone that you lost your bet then the casino is exonerated from the blame. If you experience the problem alone it means the individual has the fault but if it is general then casino experienced the glitch and is liable to the fault .

That thing wey make Naija government begin create their own CBDC means say no be news on bitcoin matter. Local television stations dey call experts dey come talk bitcoin and cryptocurrency market and that means even the people wey no dey online dey hear about am. Naija na the most active population here, for binance and globally you no fit talk bitcoin users make you leave out Naija. So this means say we dey everywhere dey follow bumper to bumper even social media self but make we dey careful not to expose our self to scam because yahoo guys dem also dey use bitcoin investment scam people.

If we dey talk about bitcoin and helping inflation, I dey wonder how e dey relate and that investment aspect too na individual e suppose help because say e go make you see something to sustain yourself if e go well oo, so some how individual fit run leave poverty when your investment go well. If naija government go invest on bitcoin say make e for help reduce inflation, how?

If dem want reduce inflation make dem do the right thing by fixing the economy. No be bitcoin carry inflation come and no be im go reduce am. Na bad leadership bring high inflation and na good leadership go reduce am by proper planning wey go increase export, increase GDP, increase external reserve etc .

Dem know say men dey their back na. Dem sabi say if anything happen na third world war be that so if ECOWAS want try make dem come. We know say dem get support for even West Africa, countries like Mali, Burkina Faso, Guinea and more don declare support for dem unto say dem too na military regime dey in place. We also know how e dey go for Western countries because dem get eyes for the matter and the two blocs dey follow each other up, NATO and BRICS. Russia want to break NATO supremacy and so all these West Africa countries wey dey under military regime don dey eat with BRICS. So despite the support of America and NATO for ECOWAS, I no think say Dem fit go fight Niger republic except dem want third world war to start from West Africa.

Na the key word be this. No body sideline anybody because all man dey hussle too even those wey you see for up , so you still need to focus and keep moving while understanding how e dey go. The Naija forum wey dey now self dey help unlike before. So make you dey look front and show commitment with post wey person fit show interest. No where dey easy, so if you find yourself here, learn, work and grow.

If it sounds so good to be through then you have to be careful and check if you will see something that will give you the sign. I do have this believe that every business including casino is established for profit purpose and if you start seeing so much ground breaking bonuses then you need to start sniffing if you could find something. Moreover I also do a review of the casino regards to withdrawal because if you can't withdraw after winning then you just wasted your money.

With this can we now say that bitcoin is not performing the original privacy goal or that it is the human factor that is frustrating it because like you pointed out, third party services in bitcoin is really growing bigger apart from the exchanges, people have taken up this like the brokers and they stand in the middle to execute the transaction like the escrow service. I think the P2P service is not really getting that attention because of trust.

I don't think adding a micro loan for such bet is reasonable. Taking a loan is like a leverage and that is risky, it is better to bet base on your capacity and not relying on what additional loan for it. Worse of it is that there is no guarantee that you will have the winning so why thinking of adding loan, some match are fixed which could be discovered. Like the example you gave, some times you see matches stopped on the way or suspended if the organizer believe there is fixing on it, so in such case you either lose your bet money or it is returned to you.
