2101  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why is horse racing so unpopular here and a bit of extra feedback on: October 21, 2023, 03:14:18 PM
When you talk about horse racing being unpopular you have to be specific,  in terms of what category of the game seems unpopular to you,  and also why have horse racing not being in physical casinos,  or its limited presence in physical casinos is because horse racing is not a game that you can easily organize and it work in a limited cycle,  no sometimes,  horse racing game can cover up to 20 to 10 miles and that requires a special route for the game,  this is the reason why most physical casinos don't list such games unless for clubs such golf.

But the online gambling sites have had a tremendous increase in terms of game designs that give the player a unique experience in both the virtual that make you get the same excitement as if you playing in the live games,  so that settles the issues of the unpopular of horse race to some extent.

Almost all punters are aware of these rules, but only few of them follow them religiously. Why? Because the majority go with their gut instead of thinking about rules and end up losing their money again and again.

None of this will ever change because humans are inherently greedy leading to these results. This is what makes casinos stay in business if you think about it.
Yup, everyone is aware on what will be the outcome if they didn't follow the rules and if they have no proper time and Financial management in gambling. However, some participants play just because they've heard to other that there's a big chance of winning, partially that's true but still there's a big possibility of losing money as well. Just control their emotions while playing, being greedy tends to lose all your money.
Having good financial management is what lead to a stress-free gambling journey and over the years,  many of those who do not have this management skills and approach in place have landed into several problems along the line and that is not something that we can take lightly when we talking about discipline and time/money management in gambling.

A lot of time what makes many gamblers slide into devastating situations is when they feel their excesses while gambling, which will definitely have a big bad effect on their overall experience
2103  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is Islamic Coin? A Muslim Community Coin 🔥 on: October 21, 2023, 02:54:20 PM

That being said, the Islamic coin sound like a religious coin and at that it may lead to a lot of limitation for the project such as wider adoption and users,  and what the religious sentiments are about cryptocurrency projects,  just like gambling that is declared and haram in Islam,  same could happen with crypto in Islam the could be a prohibition or restriction to worshipers not the get involved in anything such as this.

The currency was created on abhorrent racist foundations, which has predicted its failure since its launch. Calling the currency religious makes it very limited and does not offer promises of success of any kind. It is not the first currency of its kind to be established according to this premise, but none of us mention anything about those currencies because they failed quickly.

The owners of these projects usually have a limited team who create the project to deceive people with a false illusion. On this basis, they seek to ensure that the project attains acceptable importance.
I agree with you on that and this is not the first time I have seen such a level of financial propaganda even the Islamic coin itself,  it seems that the coin has been around for a while now but has failed to gain recognition and because of that many of the currency speculators avoid the coin in the discussions,  although we have to be able to proclaim the right approach if truly we want to make contact with such projects,  since there are build along the sentimental line.

This have nothing to do with the real aim and practice of Islam and I believe that the coin is nothing but just a mere pozi.
2104  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How Confident Are you With Altcoin In This Time on: October 21, 2023, 02:46:56 PM
I think there is a show stopper for investors in the confidence when it comes to hacking of exchanges. From my point of view, the safe way will be to invest in main currencies like Bitcoin and or ETH  or the one who are having their own blockchain. Then keep them safe in the hardware wallet and not in the exchange until there is any need of trading. The advantage of investing in father coins is that it can be kept in hardware wallet for long term.. As for other coins there is possibility that they may change their blockchain network at any point of time and thus having the value to zero if we don't switch them.
That is correct,  the best position to take is to invest only in solid assets like Bitcoin and if you must look as altcoins direction then you can go for ethereum, since it has been proven times without number that ethereum move in the direction that Bitcoin goes and that become the strongest spot for the market unless you want to gamble,  that is the only time you should look at other more risky coins in the altcoins categories.

We have seen a few coins most especially meme coins coming up lately trying to prove to be the center of the market,  not knowing it is all just a short-term hype and just like every other hype,  it comes and goes so don't take them seriously.
2105  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: benefits of having mature accounts at 3 casinos (personal experience) on: October 20, 2023, 11:15:57 PM
me VIP ranks with just using up a small amount is never been that too easy. You would really be gradually be crawling up with those numbers but
busting up along the way is most likely to happen. This is why you should really be that sensible on whatever targets or goals that you do have in mind considering that
gambling is always been that risky.
Before you see out to gamble you should have made your risk analysis in gambling,  this is important because at some point gambling does not offer you guarantee result don't risk what you can not not afford to lose,  and always take a personal valuation before setting put to gamble,  building a VIP account is something that requires a little ng time of active wagering and commitment of funds.
2106  Economy / Gambling / Re: what are the best crypto casinos! on: October 20, 2023, 11:02:04 PM
Only way to find out if that casino is trusted enough then you should btry thier services and one you will try to deposit a good amount then if in the withdrawal there's no trials and errors then all I can say is maybe you already found the right one. And also by the help from the gamblers who has the experience of betting that casino then if thier reviews is good then it trusted.
it is not possible to know before making a deposit/gambling on their site/withdrawals whether the site is real or not and whether they will scam or not. It can only be known if anyone tells about the site whether the site is good working or not. That's why people try to know which is the best.


There's nothing wrong with waiting for other people to make a deposit or review first, so that we don't get hit by a fraudulent site, because recently there have been many gambling sites under the guise of fraud, members can deposit but cannot withdraw.
it's best to avoid new sites.
Not just a few but many scam casinos have pumped up recently that have attracted a lot of concerns and comments from members of this forum,  they have several methods to scamming their clients,  and some of them have been exposed already which is why we have become more inform and equipped with relevant informations that guide our individual steps toward better and safer gambling experience.

Most of those scam casinos will lock your account once you either make a big amount of deposit or win a big game that rewards you a lot,  they will e.g a popular casino 1xbit is fun of doing that to the customers.
2107  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Fight against corruption on: October 20, 2023, 10:27:00 PM
Corruption is something no one can fight completely. but we can curtain it by learning about the danger of it to the community and society. corruption should be discouraged among the youths and children. these the future of the society, if we want to keep a free corrupt society,  But the real fear is that the youths are in ivolved in all kinds of corrupt practices. it will be hard to fight corruption in this generation, butwe must keep speaking against it.
sometime I can't stop but to ask myself weather or not corruption was created in the system of human and the only way out is for the formulation of a systematic approach to governmental affairs,  instead of relying on human formulated governmental policies that have failed a number of time now.

Bit if ther be a system in place that run the government then kt will become an optional or unavailable room for human leadership in government,  this is the only way to get rid of corruption in all totality and make sure to always place the interest of the people first.
2108  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tips on staying responsible. on: October 20, 2023, 10:11:56 PM
We have often discussed this discussion or question in this forum, but it is very interesting to discuss because not everyone can gamble responsibly.
What I know from several experiences and several other people experiences is that gambling responsibly is word that is difficult to do because related to responsibility, we must be able to maintain our commitment to something that we have planned but it is not easy enough to do because greed is always a problem. barrier for responsible gamblers.
The other side of all this requires strong mental guidance to become a responsible gambler getting used to trying to be consistent with the rules that have been made, I think it will work.
Greed have indeed been the major tool that have created a lot of crisis in our gambling life and this also impacts a lot on other aspects of our lives,  this is why a lot of time,  we always advise that we take care of our greed tendency because greed leads to a lot of the cases of gambling addictions around the world today.

If anyone can control their greed level while gambling he will easily avoid getting into addictions and that will go a long way to position us better for the future.
2109  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gender in Gambling [differences between Women and Men in Gambling] on: October 20, 2023, 10:03:04 PM

It is right that everyone has a freedom and we have no right to bond with anythibg. Almost all the spehere of life both men and women working together to make the world better. In the same way they are gambling both on  offline gam long as well as online gamblong. It is not a fact what is the ratio.
There is no difference between women or men when it comes to gambling or any other aspects of life activities that are self realizing and just like in sport and other aspect that requires active participation, knowing that there is no gender discrimination of any nature,  this awareness have indeed increased the rate of women gambling this day, and the general public perception about women involving have indeed changed a lot.

But then also,  we have to measure the level of risk-taking between men and women as men tend to take more risk in gambling compared to women.

Edited out
Nice I have also commented on that thread you mentioned before,  but the this thread is more of an approach than it is a speculation and also a substantial DCA analysis of the current currency market as it relates more on a global scale other than internal currency valuations.

The thread mentioned is about BTC vs Naira,  and is speculative in nature,  which is somehow related to this thread but not the same in terms of statistics and forecasts.
2111  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: No scam sportsbooks on: October 20, 2023, 07:26:49 PM
Does anyone know any bookmakers with a wide line that are not scams, it doesn?t matter whether it?s a crypto bookmaker or a regular bookmaker like bet365 alternative  ?


You can see a lot of bookmakers who is not a scammer.  You may use any bookmakers who has signature campaign on the forum. I am saying signature campaign because those who haa a signature campaign checked by lot of people. So if they are scammer they will be caught.
At the current stage,  we have recorded higher number of legit bookmakers who's presence are active here in the forum and also on their support page,  a lot of time we have noticed that most of those who have one issue or the others have gotten the problems resolved,  this shows how legit those bookmakers are and though that active response and constant updates over the years have shown that indeed the bookmakers value the reputation and business as large.

Mind you,  be for you to trust any bookmaker you have to first of all check how active they are on a person's research and not based on individuals or influencers' comments.
2112  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tips on staying responsible. on: October 20, 2023, 07:18:33 PM
Let's discuss the unique challenges of responsible gambling in the world of cryptocurrencies.

Crypto gambling can be fun, but it's important to keep our financial boundaries intact.

Share your tips and thoughts on staying responsible in this digital realm.

If you're into sports betting, avoid placing large or many bets on new sports - even if the odds seem enticing. It's better to learn a new area slowly but high odds return potential can lure you to spend way more than you should, like in horse race betting for example. Don't play when you're tired, hungry, irritable or under the influence of any drugs or alcohol, as it can reduce your decision-making skills. Know how to read the signs when you are on tilt or sinking in a lot of good money on a bad run. Sometimes you just have to accept a bad day and leave before losing any more money, that anger will cloud your judgement and only get worse as the losses mount. If you ever stop having fun, then it's probably time to give it up.
Yes, exposing your risk level higher due to multiple games bets will only lead to massive losses because definitely,  one or two games must cut the tickets,  many have made this mistake before,  although multiple games selection will increase your total winning but then if you failed to apply the cash-out method you may lose along the line because even if your predictions are right in the first few games,  the last game on the ticket can still cut the ticket and this is why it due better to apply cash out whenever we see that we have made multiple bets selections.

But if you are not good at cash-out calculations,  then it due best to just bet on a single game that you are sure of at least to some extent.
2113  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / DCA BTC-USDT- ₦ my current formula due to Nig situation on: October 20, 2023, 07:11:13 PM
Is no longer news that the current Nigeria 🇳🇬 naira value against the United States dollar 💸 has skyrocketed to a record high of ₦1200, many of those who are not well grounded in Assets management and currency pricing due to a lack of global currency statistical knowledge or information in regards to currency volatilities.

this thread discussion should be focused on the statistical analysis of the current market situation and how best we can apply the DCA approach to stay at gains using the naira vs the USDT and thereafter USDT vs BTC.

Current market prices

BTC= $30k
USDT =₦1200

Basic price analysis considering the currency's weaknesses against each other.

From the above market conditions,  Bitcoin is the highest gainer in the market and at that, we use Bitcoin as the primary asset and use the bought price of 25k taking into account data of price as at 6 days cycle (1week).

Many within the country Nigeria may be blaming the current naira value against the US dollar on bad economy or governance,  but then even the US dollar also is depreciating rapidly against other currencies such as bitcoin,  so let's take off the mindset of internal economy and make only statistical analysis taking into account all data and components,  that make up for the global exchange price movement and how the global currency pricing run as a chain.

Taking advantage now to DCA your bitcoin looks to be the best approach right now if you are a short-term bitcoin market speculator using Nigeria's naira as your primary currency,

2115  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The Drake's Curse. on: October 19, 2023, 11:53:53 PM
When you're earning someone's retirement funds every weekend you're bound to be a little belligerent when you're gambling, and in his case it's not like the money's ever going to stop cause one way or another people will listen to his songs and albums again and again, and he's too big to fail in the industry he's in too so he's not scared of anything at all. But that doesn't make his gambling addiction problem any less scary. But yeah the Drake's Curse, he's been like that ever since lol Paddy was a really strong fighter back then but when he started betting on the man he started losing drive and popularity. Basically, take Drake's bets at face value and always bet on whoever he's not betting lol.
Apart from Drake making money from his music,  he os also an ambassador with a notable casino and also I big roller and have hard several records of winning in the past and as we all know that gambling is filled with ups and downs so Drake will still be fine,  and possibility are that he may have recovered that loses from his subsequent games that may not be mentioned to the public,  why this loses made so much news is because he lost the bet and with higher amount staked with then et and what lead to that is the confident that he had in his selected fighter.

If not,  ordinarily he may not have lost that amount if it is that he never trusted the fighter to win the fight,  but then also,  this is gambling,  one needs to be smart enough to make the right choice at all times and not rely so much on previous performances to the point of staking an unbearably high amount.
2116  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Is Nigeria's movie industry only favouring the ladies? on: October 19, 2023, 11:44:49 PM
       ....our prayers are with Mr IBU in this trying time and we pray for quick recovery........
My people,  I know by now most of us for don watch or read waiten is happening in the Nigeria movie industry,  the two trending stories coming up from that industry in the last two week is that of the young 20+ actress who splashed millions of naira in buying a house for herself within few year/ month into the acting business.

Another one comes to be that of John Okafor who has been a comic actor for over 20 years,  his own na sickness,  one of his legs 🦵 may be amputated if not flown ✈️  abroad for urgent medical attention,  he has carried to the public with his personal account flying all around social media seeking for donations,  now goes how much he need,  just 7 million naira to fly out for medical treatment.

So this thing come made me the wonder say how can a very popular actor who have put smiles on people's face for over 20 year can afford to foot his travelling and treatment arrangement for such a small amount of 7 million, which will result in a public donation.

And a young girl who is bearly known for getting such an amount of money that runs into hundreds of millions within a short period to splash on such a home for herself,  and her case is one among many of her colleagues who have bought SUV cars worth millions in the same movies industry.

So the thing comes that makes me wonder what really happens, is why the ladies make amm for that industry and the men are poor or even below average,  because most of the deaths of actors that we have seen are mostly as a result of proper financial care at some point,   the thing comes to the look like say the more you look the less you see for Nigeria movie industry.
2117  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit gamble! Easy or Hard? Let's talk. on: October 19, 2023, 11:28:09 PM
I can relate when you say you have a bad behavior or reaction when you experiment losses. I have myself felt bad for a couple of days after I had a bad luck streak rolling dices, in my case I get depressed and do not feel like doing anything.

I assume in your case you get mad instead of sad?
Because in my personal opinion, anger can be more difficult to control than sadness or melancholy. Either way, I hope you do not start to keep track on your wins and losses, because that is a very short path towards trying to chase money and we both know what happens when the chasing starts, it usually does not end well at all.

Good luck and take care of you and your family.

Well, thank you very much.
I also feel sad and don't want to do anything. But this would be the wrong problem. Our lives are affected by gambling. We should put that thought aside. If you lose money, you can get it back, but if you lose your job or love, it is not easy to get it back.
I consider this a lesson worthy of us spending that money to buy this lesson. Now, I continue to gamble. But my mind is now very comfortable. The amount of money I'm willing to lose will never affect my life. A little knowledge and experience will be an advantage when playing this game. And it is still important not to be too greedy when you have won in gambling.
Before setting out to gamble,  you have to first pf all make up your mind to always withstand your losses at some point because both winning and losing is all part of gambling and the both combine to make up for the fun part of gambling,  because the essence of gambling is to have fun and while having that fun,  our bets are the most oiling part of the whole scenario and this happens to be the best part of it all because through that bet is where your either excitement or pains come from.

So for that,  as a gambler you need to make prior arrangement to be able to handle both at the same time because definitely you must witness them at some point.

Just control their emotions while playing, being greedy tends to lose all your money.
Some time,  I feel we don't need to talk too much to those who don't want to follow the rule or even set out their own rules because that is the only a gambler can be safe and not run into any possible crisis trying to chase a direction that may not be favourable to the future well being,  although some are highly skilled to the point that sometime, there may not need all this advice or rules that place them in the position to be able to stand alone and stand tall with gambling at some point.

So in that situation first thing first,  you have to be ready to take responsibility be it to limit your gambling pleasure and also strictly following them up also is another great release for the gambler and helps to limit his risk.

Well Kucoin is not the first exchange to undergo such a feature development we already have other notable exchanges having those features in place already and just like the first and second comments have rightly mentioned this is not so significant for us to discuss on and we can only but wish them the best of luck and hope that this development will bring with it a lot of traffic to the exchange although I have Kucoin account it has been long since I use them since I have better alternatives to them since I discover that alternative,  I haven't been active again of Kucoin like before now.
2120  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: The igbo system of education vs the formal education on: October 19, 2023, 10:51:12 PM
Apprenticeship have become so popular among the Igbos who have chooses trades over formal education and most of those apprentice have turn out to become successful in the various business after serving the maters for a stipulated time,  and just like smart gold pointed out some of the possible risk in such agreement it then means that those boys serving they masters have a lot to risk and even the oga also have his own risk if there be no proper agreements and guarantee since he be risking mismanagement of his business money if he fall for a wrong apprentice.

Same goes with the apprentice since he may risk not getting settled by the oga it he doesn't make proper agreement also with the oga,  so both the apprentice and ago are both at risk.

Also too comparing this with western education may be a wrong thing to do since both plays separate vital role in the economic life of the person because you be needing the Western education to be able to run a business effectively.
