2141  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Go home with a profit and come back to end up losing a lot. on: September 24, 2022, 09:54:40 AM
A friend of mine works in a casino (land-based) and he told me yesterday that there was a client who with a stroke of luck won a good amount, about $8k. He exchanged the chips for cash and went home. After about half an hour, my friend sees him walk back in the door and went on a gambling binge all the night, only to end up losing his winnings and more.
It becomes a huge problem when casino's or gambling houses are the only places that you choose to go for relaxation whenever you want to relax. It looks to me as though the person in subject of the story doesn't have enough chill spot, so after he won and went home...he feels like chilling with the money he just won, but since the casino is the only option on his list, he heads back there, maybe with the mind of not wanting to gamble but getting to the casino, he gambles and looses it all, sad case, bottom line for me is have multiple relaxation zones on your list, it doesn't always have to be around a casino. It could be a restaurant, a bar, a park etc. just have options.
2142  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA 2022 world cup on: September 23, 2022, 10:44:36 PM
Brazil easily won the match already in the first half and left Ghana no chance. 3 goals from Brazil in the first half was enough ...
If the Ghanian team that played today is the team to feature in the world cup, then certainly Ghana will not go past the group stages Ghana just had a dose of what they stand to face in the world cup and have to be better prepared for the world cup that will be packed with excitement from teams in form. I don't think Partey is someone Ghana can depend on for the world cup especially because of his constant injury challenges and concerns.

Brazil on the other hand have very strong team, but shouldn't become too over confident is all i can say.
2143  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Satoshi Nakamoto- If he ever made himself known what would make you believe it? on: September 23, 2022, 04:42:15 PM
I think Satoshi's decision to stay anonymous was carefully thought out and was not made hastily. I don't think there's any likely situation that he will just decide to go against his early decision. Staying anonymous so far has had some benefits to him even in terms of his safety, not sure he will want to jeopardize that.
2144  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Where to buy bitcoin on: September 23, 2022, 03:46:14 PM
Hey guys,
So I know this is common question but where is a good place to buy a large amount of bitcoin with no to little fees.
Be careful about any private messages you get after this, either claiming to be vendors or referring you to a website you can buy or someone else. It is a scam. Follow strictly wherever you are referred to here on the thread by trusted high ranking forum members and not in you inbox. 50k is not an amount you want to loose.
2145  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Chinese version of Metaverse will be great for meta casinos. on: September 23, 2022, 03:30:10 PM
In the future i think its not so far fetch after all to play and travel around the world while at home. the way its been described by Cyrus will actually work best for metaverse casinos than what Zuckerberg have in mind.
The Chinese can do a great job with tech undoubtedly and make improvements to someone's technology, and now that they have had an extra funding at a time Zuckerberg is facing economical downturns on his investment in the metaverse, they are definitely in line to better Zuckerberg's idea. Also the competition about the metaverse space is healthy and good as we are certain that when the metaverse is fully operational, we will be getting the best. Meta Casinos will be a new evolution to gambling.
2146  Economy / Economics / Re: UK Under Recession, Inflation Hitting World Strong Economies on: September 23, 2022, 01:18:16 PM
I think the UK government have been battling the situation, trying to ensure that the situation doesn't get to this, but with the unforeseen death of the queen and the unexpected expenses they were thrown into as a result of it, it must have contributed to the present recession they are facing. The queens funeral certainly cost a lot of money and no actual figure have been released yet as the amount spent, but taxpayers money looks to have been involved, coupled with the energy crisis, hence their current situation.
2147  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Crypto wallets have a long way to go on: September 22, 2022, 10:58:56 PM
The biggest issue we have in the crypto space is crypto wallets, there are a few things that haven't been fixed yet or haven't been made easy yet.
There will always be problems and something to fix, that's why there are always updates to these apps sometimes. If these problems have been noticed or pointed out before these apps/exchanges were created, I am certain there would have been sorted out by developers. Also there are certainly other more challenging issues than just crypto wallets in the cryptospace.
2148  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The UEFA Nations League 2020/2021 Discussion Thread on: September 22, 2022, 08:49:45 PM
What happened to France, they surprisingly haven't won a single game so far...

They have broken the deadlock finally and they have managed to do so very convincingly. Mbappe and Giroud will be the headliners for France in the game, they connected properly in the game creating chances, and leading to the first goal for Mbappe and good enough Giroud was able to score a goal as well. France have plenty options in front with the likes of Greizman, Giroud, Benzema, Mbappe for goal, but what Giroud offers to france in terms of aerial advantage cannot be provided by their other options in front of goal, hence IMO, the French team will need Giroud for the world Cup, for his aerial advantage and then those very beautiful passes he makes.
2149  Economy / Economics / Re: ‘Polluters must pay’: UN chief calls for windfall tax on fossil fuel companies on: September 22, 2022, 08:26:24 PM
Also I'm interested to know how public opinion views these topics. I have a feeling public sentiment on climate change and alternative energy have shifted a little over the last 2 years.
In addition to plans by the UN chief to tax these companies they should also put pressure on them for them to be more involved in creating awareness about climate change and how everyone can contribute to arresting this challenge we all stand to face as well as conducting regular environmental exercise that involves environmental evaluation and remediation where necessary. If companies are involved in environmental duties, they will make an effort to reduce the amount of pollution they let out.

The person just rush reply without making a meaningful sentence. I don read the reply left, right and centre, but e no make sense.
These sort of rash comments often are reflections of hate and dislike that some people have for the subject, they make comments without even thinking. This is why some people have the opinion that some supporters of some specific candidates that are running for the presidential position are aggressive and need to be called to order. The campaign will be starting soon and I am sure that we will be seeing more of these sort of uncalculated comments from people.
2151  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Looking for a real mining platforms that pays. on: September 22, 2022, 10:59:33 AM
If you are really interested in mining, you might want to ask how to build your own mining rig. There are members here that could give tips on how to properly do so.
If OP decides that building a mining rig is what he wants, please understand that there are challenges to it and it doesn't come cheap. You should be able to understand the power intensive nature of maintaining a rig.

Read this article to have an idea of the requirements in hardware that you will be needing: https://www.zdnet.com/article/how-to-build-a-cryptomining-rig/
2152  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How much money do you leave in crypto casino? on: September 22, 2022, 06:40:13 AM
Do you leave your balance in your casino balance or you withdraw immediately regardless of the reputation of the casino?
Reputation matters a lot and that will be the first thing I'll consider before leaving any amount of money in my casino balance. For a casino with a good reputation and long-standing I would only keep a fixed amount that I have resolved to use for gambling for say that period in my casino balance just to ensure that I can keep my gambling activities in check.
2153  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Education Resources to learn bitcoin from scratch on: September 21, 2022, 04:20:14 PM
I am a non tech guy, with little knowledge of coding, block chain and how to use bitcoin.

It's a good thing that no technical knowledge is really required to become knowledgeable in the use of bitcoin. People from all walks of life and with all sort of skill sets can learn about bitcoin provided they're disciplined enough to subject them self to the rigours of learning something new. Good thing is that it may not take you time to catch up with if you properly commit to all the resources that have been referred to, and you keep an open mind plus the  willingness to learn.
2154  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Ex- Chancellor Rishi Sunak Could be Satoshi Nakamoto ! on: September 21, 2022, 12:41:25 PM
Doesn't it prove that Rishi Sunak is a good candidate for Satoshi Nakamoto ?
These are very unnecessary details that you are concerning yourself with IMO. Why do people keep worrying themselves about the identity of Satoshi, is it going to change anything? I think there are better things to focus on OP like how to align yourself to be a beneficiary of bitcoin than concerning your with unnecessary details like Satoshi's identity that so much has been vested to conceal. Don't loose focus!
2155  Economy / Economics / Re: Going to war means let's ulter the economic progression on: September 20, 2022, 03:05:11 PM
War has always been associated with altered economic progression for citizens who then become victims of the harsh economic realities they will have to face as a result of crisis. But there are some people and companies that benefit and are not really affected whenever there is a crisis for instance, the manufacturers of guns and ammunitions, pharmaceutical supplies as well and relief materials are always in profit.

Another big congratulations to Amusan, this record which she ran at 12.12secs at the commonwealth has been validated and she is now the world record holder officially for that category. She is an inspiration to other athletes who believe that they will one day be the first to hold a world record for their country.

Other records that were Ratified by the athletics body are;

2157  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Gambling Companies and Bitcoin on: September 20, 2022, 01:32:25 PM
Are the authorities of these nations turning a blind eye on the Bitcoin use?
Online casino's are accessible to people in different locations, and the casino you play with may not be bound or affected by very strict laws of your country. On the other hand, Most governments do not worry too much about their citizens owning bitcoins as digital assets and making use of it for things like trading and say gambling, they just don't want it mixing up with their banking sector, just like the central bank in my country Nigeria recently clarified. So long you have a way to profit and get your money without going through the banks, you are good to go.

Reno used to be a big and respected figure on social media particularly during the #endsars protest, where he was largely and always in support of the youths, and spared nothing in criticizing the excesses of the present APC government. But since recently, he is still big but gradually now loosing any respect he has because of talking too much on the internet. There are many persons like myself who do not take him seriously.
2159  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2022/23 on: September 19, 2022, 02:11:16 PM
Real Madrid reminded once again how great a team they are.
No Benzema, No problem for the team! The quality on the Real Madrid squad is top notch, and the young players on that team have shown to be capable to carry own the legacy of Real Madrid. I re-watched that Rodrygo's early stunner many times, it was world class, a quick snap shot and finishing just like what we saw Mbappe do in the champions league. Even Valverde who made a beautiful run in the last game and scored a super goal, made an impression in the game as well, very hardworking, versatile and devoted, he gives his all in every game he has the opportunity to play in. Real Madrid are yet to either loose or draw a game this season, and just like Arsenal, this has been their best start to the season in a long while, Kudos to the coach, if he can keep the team winning after the international break, especially the first three games that follow the break, they will be heading to break the clubs personal record of all time best start to the season. The competition they will face in the La liga as regards who wins the title this season will be Barcelona who are also doing well in their own way.
