It depends on the altcoins that you want to buy or that you are talking about. Since I invest only in bitcoin, I still see the price of altcoins very cheap for whoever wants to buy them now. If it is too expensive for, then you should buy the ones that are new and worthless.

I would advice you to use a little amount of money to invest in any altcoin that you want to buy, because it is not all of them that will survive in the market. We will still see the bull run of some altcoins after bitcoin bull run, so buying them now is wiser.

Im curios how safe is currently the 12 mnemonic seed phase for example of of electrum 12 words against bruteforce?
The chance of someone to bruteforce  12 word seed phrase is very tiny, as long as all the words are unknown. It is when like 8 words are known, and some letters in the other four words are known that the it might be bruteforce. So you have nothing to fear about anyone being able to bruteforce your seed phrase. Any seed phrase that have been generated cannot be generated again by 100 computers put together.

i have some wallets with 12 seeds and im a bit uncertain if its really safe
It is safe as long as you keep it away from third party.
223  Other / Off-topic / Re: Have you won a bet with your last cash? on: April 19, 2024, 07:09:24 PM
I'm experiencing this OP hoping that the time favors me and have luck. Well, a few times it happened that I won but most of the time was not. So I believe that betting the last money we have in our pocket still couldn't not assure winning. Our last money seems to be our last bet as well.
But I don't think we need to have this situation when gambling instead, we have to practice of saving our last cash for the most important thing. I think gambling responsibly should really be what we have in our mind rather than putting our last money into hopes. This just means that we are not lucky today and instead of using this money, maybe we can save this for the next day or in the other day.
That's right but that is easy to say and difficult to do. It happened to me recently while playing slots. My $100 went down to as low as $19 in just a minimum bet of $0.1 per round. I said to myself I don't really care anymore so I switched games and played there my remaining money and Voila! good things happened until I went up to $80 again. Today, I said I was going to gamble $5 more on the same game, and boom! it went up to $95. That's when I thought I should stop and play again tomorrow or the next day after that. Why? Simply because I am afraid I might lose it all again in one sweep and I don't like that to happen.
I am reserving the money for sports betting later in NBA so I have to save it for now. There are times we might get lucky with our last money but don't expect too much.
It's not good to spend almost every minutes on gamble as the result will end up wrongly. Some people remain on casino (online or offline) overtime and they end up addicted to gamble. Your pattern is much better because you don't spend much time on gamble, that's makes much sense because if you win you rest and try again the other day and it will be also good if even when you lose you still quit it and still try again the next day. There is more to gamble if a gambler keeps winning and losing our side.
Of course, gambling is not a compulsory thing that you must win, and that is why whatever the outcome of the game is you should accept it like that, because gamble is a game of luck, and not by our skill in the game. Losing and stopping the game to play another day is a sign of discipline, and it will save you from addiction.

Whoever thinks that because he has lost a lot to gambling due to his own irresponsible gambling lifestyle, thinks that gamble is owing him, and he must take back his losses, is endangering his life because he will keep on losing and also become addicted.

Anyhow. Updated odds for the outright UCL winner:



No surprise here, Real is now the favourite with odds of x2.40

Bayern must beat Real Madrid first, and then PSG (most likely) to get the title, and PSG must have an easy walk with Dortmund (compared to the game with Real, but in general it is natural that Dortmund also has a chance) and then beat Real/Bayern in the final. At the same time, the odds of PSG and Bayern are assessed as almost equal. Am I the only one who thinks these quotes are crooked?
It seems to me that Real Madrid and PSG are undervalued, which means betting on them has value.

You are right about Bayern Munich must beat Real Madrid in the first leg of the game, if Bayern Munich did not beat Real Madrid in the first leg of the match it’s over for Bayern Munich because Real Madrid will defeat Bayern Munich in Santiago bernabeu qualify to final round of champions league, but the way I’m looking at this season champion league Real Madrid is the favourite to win this champion league, I know we are talking about football here and anything can happen but what I want us to understand in this season champion league is that a team that struggle to defeat Manchester City is definitely going to win this champion league and since the day Real Madrid eliminate Manchester City, every body believe that Real Madrid will win the league.

Although this champion league is full of surprises, the team that you expect to win will be the one to lose, but I think Real Madrid is different from the other teams , I believe in Real Madrid with 90% of winning the champion
League title, Bayern Munich performance is not good as Real Madrid own, Bayern Munich qualify for semifinal by defeating arsenal with one goal, so from my point of view Real Madrid is defeating Bayern Munich.
I have already concluded the moment that the draw was made for the quarter finals, when I saw that Real Madrid is playing Manchester city. I said that whoever wins the match will become the winner of the champions league this season because no club will be as strong as two of them.

So now that it is Real Madrid that won City, then I don't think anyone will be able to stop them. Bayern Munich will not be able to win Real Madrid in Germany, because they are not inform, and it is not that one that they managed to win Arsenal, that they will play with Real Madrid who is always ready to net the post.

The match between Roma and AC Milan goes well for Roma in the first half. They got too quick goals to lead AC Milan 3 - 0 in aggregated result. Even it is only temporary, it is big advantage for Roma but there is a moment in the first half, Celik made a foul to stop Leao and got a direct red card. It is a deserved red card for Celik because a foul like this can destroy career of an attacking player.

This foul reminds me about a foul of Araujo yesterday, fouls are different but both lead to direct red cards. Roma after that did not collapse easily in the first half but AC Milan actually created some big pressure. De Rossi is realistic by sending Dybala off and replacing him by Llorente, a central defender.

AC Milan needs to find an early goal in second half to trigger panic in Roma. If they can not do it, they will lose this match and Roma will have another season with semi finals in Europa League.
Roma is filled with experience players and the red card might not affect them that much to the extend that Milan will win the match. De Rossi knows what he is doing, and I believe Roma will play more of a defensive game than attacking.

AC Milan are pressuring Roma to see if they can break the deadlock but all effort have not brought out any good result. Roma is playing a good football as they just created a beautiful chance that they were unable to convert it to a goal because Milan goalkeeper denied them that one.

We have always said it that we should take risk on what we can only afford to loose, before we can make an investment on any coin, we should first consider the pros and cons therein, that is why making a research is very necessary for us to do, also, making investment on altcoins cannot be compared if it were to be on bitcoin, we should think twice before taking any step in action towards what we go for.
There is no need of taking any risk by investing in altcoins because they are not worth it, and they are for gamblers who wants to make 100x profit on a little money. This is where they get carried away by greed and loss it all to the dev under the twinkle of any eye.

Save your investment from liquidating and invest in bitcoin which is king to all cryptocurrency. The risk investing is shitcoin is very high.

Bitcoin leads to success and shitcoins lead to failure.

It is quite interesting to see that the long awaited day is close to knocking on the door, and it is just for us to relax and drinking some gin to celebrate the halving. Investors have always put their minds on the halving event, because they know that it triggers the bull run, because it reduces miners reward into halve, limiting the quantity in supply.

I know this might not be strange to OGs here but this is the first halving, I am about to experience, and I want to see how this will make the price of bitcoin to pump and also to see the highest price that will be recorded as the new ATH by next year. I think, it is going to be a great experience.

I have been watching football since early 1990's and I can tell you that this was one of the most fun I had watching a game without a doubt. Not because the game had something amazing, like not the Dortmund game we saw just the other day, its not really about that at all. Its about the fact that both teams locked each other like insane, City attacked, but they didn't really attack, they passed, and real Madrid defended, and not really pressured, just let City do what they want and in return it took so much. I can't believe the way the game ended, it was amazing. I had the most fun I had in many years, this was one of those games that was super fun. This two team meets every year, its really just them at this point. I bet Real will win the title, because if City won, I would have said the same about them too.
It is obvious that Real Madrid will win the trophy this season, because they have eliminated the club that is a rival to them which is the defending champion. Also today was Real Madrid finals be ause no team will be as tough as City in their next three games.

I will not put any blame on City, because they played with all their strength, and they were a le to equalize the goal scored by Rodrigo, which took the match to the extra time. Manchester city dominated the match but luck was not on their side, as penalty is a game of luck.

Kuddos to Ancelotti and his men for making it to the semifinals again.

Manchester City 0-1 Real Madrid 15 minutes

The Real Madrid team took the lead in the 12th minute of the match by Rodrygo's goal. The players of both teams are playing well. From the start of the match, both teams were attacking and trying to score goals. Real Madrid's defense is very organized today. So while Manchester City's players can create several good attacking chances, they are capable of scoring goals.

In the first match we saw 6 goals from both teams. Many goals are likely to be scored in today's match. Because both teams' attacks are strong. I expect a good performance from Haaland in today's match. We don't see better performances from Haaland in important matches. Haaland did not play well in the previous match against Madrid.
Rodrigo have done it again on the 12th minutes of the game, as he put his team on the lead. I am surprised at Real Madrid confidence tonight, as they are coming out to attack. Unlike the first leg that they were a little bit defensive.

As they are attacking, it is giving them more advantage to spread the ball round the field. Manchester city will definitely equalize the goal, and I hope to see Foden net the post. Manchester city just missed a free goal by Sylva.
Even though Man City is doing the playing now, it seems balanced that Real Madrid is already leading with that early minute goal. There is heavy pressure on Real Madrid now and I expect City to be able to convert some of their chances. If the match continue the way it is going, Man City will surely get a goal. If Madrid must win the match, they just need to stop playing the defensive game they are playing now, come out and score more goal. There is no way they can defend their one goal lead from first half when the entire match is being played around their eighteen yard.
Exactly, Real Madrid should not depend one just the only goal that they ha e scored, and start defending. This is because, it will give Manchester city the strength and chances of equalizing the goal, since Manchester city will be with the ball more.

The second half is what will determine who will win the game, because it is the last surviving minutes for them to show how strong they are or go home. Rodrigo form is superb, as he always score goals in tough matches.

If I deposit $100 or $120 worth of bitcoins per month from here, how much will it benefit me? Is it right for me to invest more $ in Bitcoin than this? And should I invest the whole money in Bitcoin?
You are the best person to know the amount that will be cool for you to invest in bitcoin based on your own needs and monthly expenses. For how long will these papayas last because I know that you cannot just keep on harvesting and harvesting without planting, which makes it impossible for you to invest every month like you said.

These are things that you need to put into consideration, and how for how long will you need this money that you want to invest with. There is no business that when you are investing, you use all your money on you to invest, that business will not grow. This is because if there are unforeseen challenges that hits the business, there will be no back up funds to use to put the business back in shape. This is why it is not a wise idea for you to invest all the money from your papaya sales.

La Liga teams not doing too well, both Atletico and Barcelona now out. Only Real remain and they face a huge task to make the semi final away at Man City tomorrow.
You're right. 2 La Liga teams have been eliminated with surprising results today. They won in Leg 1, but they are defeated with big scores today. They failed to defend their leading in Leg 1, they may be just unlucky. Barcelona is clear very unlucky, they are defeated because a read card got by Araujo in minute 29'. If this never happened, I think Barcelona must play in the next round.

Barcelona made a big mistake by going defensive after the red card, that was were the mistake started. And Barcelona is not a team that's very good with defending. Their tactical switch to defense spoilt their game plan. The red card was too hash, but it was the fault of the Barcelona defender who pulled the PSG player down.
No, I don't think so. Barcelona is trying to play with the same way, Xavi only changed some players to deal with losing 1 defender. There was nothing wrong with the decision made by Xavi. But Luis Enrique knows well Barcelona game, he ordered his players to focus more on attacking. Unfortunately, losing 1 player made it very difficult for Barcelona. That condition made Barcelona players panic and no idea to avoid the conceded goals.
Barcelona players are young and lack such experience on how to play such game at a critical time like this. This was the problem that they faced, and PSG forced them and pressure their defense aggressively.

Tomorrow is when we would know if the last Spanish team will survive the quarter finals or all of them will be eliminated from the champions league. Barcelona never saw this coming neither do we. PSG had a lucky day today.
233  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: April 16, 2024, 03:19:41 PM
Not sure that Barcelona will actually catch up with Madrid, it seems they will focus more on the UCL which maybe there is still hope of qualifying for the next round by eliminating PSG, Madrid will become Laliga champions this season and I am sure of that if Madrid ends up being eliminated in the UCL because Manchester City beat them in the second leg, of course they will seriously focus on Laliga and will not let Barcelona catch up or overtake them at the top of the standings by getting a series of wins.

A difference of 8 points is of course something that is actually not difficult for Barcelona, but so far Madrid have not made a single mistake in each match and are actually on the winning path to keep their position safe and also maintain the point difference with Barcelona, if the second match takes place later. and Madrid wins the match against Barcelona of course that will determine who will win the title this season, it is certain that Madrid is more worthy of being champions of Laliga this season where last season Barcelona got it and this season Madrid took over from Barcelona in Laliga.
Currently Barcelona will focus and all out perform for tonight match against PSG, but if get good result and success qualifying to semifinal round in Champion League will get more motivate beating Real Madrid in this weekend. Get busy schedule match for both teams Madrid and Barcelona have important match not only in La Liga but also in Champion League, but Barcelona get more early for playing in champion league and has more enough time take recovery for el clasico match. For the first meet, Barcelona losses in their home match and they should revenge their loss on second meet at this week and must try to win if want get opportunity with La Liga tittle.

Real Madrid on the top position not secure yet behind has 8 points remaining from Barcelona, its difference opportunity if Barcelona taking three points on El Clasico match will be difference for Real Madrid to win La Liga tittle behind six matches left.
Lolz...what if it turns out the other way round for Barcelona as you said. Real Madrid is in a better position of winning Barcelona, and there is nothing like hope for Barcelona to be able to win the league. I believe that Barcelona will drop points in El Classico, which will make it just a dream for them to overtake Madrid.

Both clubs won with 1-0, and I do not see how Barcelona is now in a super form than Madrid, who have being in form since the beginning of this season till now. Barcelona was able to win PSG, does not give them to the strength to win Real Madrid or have you forgotten that this is a domestic league, where there is always superior.

I think that these is when the government needs to come out with price regulation to regulate the price of this local products and make sure that they are selling at a lower price which the produce is worth. If that is not done, it means that the Naira appreciating over dollar have not achieved its purpose. This will make imported products price to hike again, because they will inflate the price of the products when it comes into the country in order for them to meet up with the cost of living.

I am not happy that this is not affecting the price of food stuffs, because of greedy business people. Now I have seen that we the citizens are the major cause of the hardship in the country, because we take advantage of every bad situation to exploit other.

The worst is that his addiction has blind folded him that he takes loan to gamble, all in the name of chasing his losses.

He needs to quit gambling, because his situation can become worst than this. He is suffering his family because he is self centered. He needs to get it straight that gamble can never give him back his loss and let go of gambling.

You should know that there are some countries that the people cannot decide who will be their leader, because the people in charge of the government have made life miserable for the citizens, by putting them in a poverty level. This is done in other for them to make the people not have that power to go against their will. If you talk against the government, you get killed. No freedom of speech and everyone is living in fear.

No matter what the people do, to vote out these bad leaders, it will be in vain because they have corrupt people like them that should be able to challenge them or put a stop to their evil intentions, but these people will even support them, because everyone is after their pockets.

Some update: the exchange did not replied to any my email in us chat. Only after I create new support ticked, I got answer ,that if account (which was credited )doesn’t belongs to me they can't help.

so ~5000 usd fell "from the sky" to someone.

I thought that the least that the exchange could do was to AT LEAST inform the customer that the money was received by mistake and from whom. Maybe he is a conscientious person and his morals or religion do not even allow him to embezzle other people's money.

Probably not as simple as it may sound. You are requesting that a transaction, a relatively huge transaction, be reversed. That certainly takes more than just saying I've wrongly send this amount to this and that user. Even informing a user that a money deposited in his/her account is a mistake doesn't seem to be an easy step. After all, what does KuCoin hold as an undeniable proof that it was indeed an erroneous transaction? Even a signed message coming from the sender doesn't mean much. Who knows what deals, contracts, or agreements their users got into?

Anyway, if he/she was a conscientious person, he/she would have probably sent it back already.
The thing should be that the person that the coins was sent to his address is a honest and upright person, because if he is then OP wouldn't have any problem getting back his coins. It is when the account owner is the opposite that it will be difficult for OP to get his coins soon.

OP needs to be patience to see if there will be a positive result from Kucoin, or forget about the coins and move on.

Bayern Leverkusen crowning a super season, and winning the Bundesliga with a 4-0 game against Werder Bremen, now they can fully focus on the Europa League and also saves some players in the Bundesliga game.

No one can imagine this amazing season for Leverkusen at the start of the season. The europa League can be the cherry on top of a magnificent season for the club.
Xabi Alonso have done a great work on the team, and no one expected such wonderful performance from them this season. They stayed focused and never accepted defeat since the beginning of the season till date, they have being showing how good they are. They deserve to win any trophy that they win at the end of the season. I will give them the Europa cup too.

This is because they have remain consistent in their performance and the worst result for them is a draw. I Der them already in the semifinals of the Europa cup. They are 16 points ahead of Bayern Munich, making the point gap very wide. Winning Werder Bremen 5-0 shows that they are improving more in their performance.

Seeing surprises sometimes happen in the league is part of the game, and that made Premier League become the most interesting league in the world to watch because it's the most difficult to predict, and furthermore, I doubt if anyone thought today Liverpool and Arsenal would lose at home soil, and it really such a sad for their fans and supporters of both clubs who are hoping to see their teams continue to do well towards this end of the season.
Looked to towards the ending, Arsenal lost focus of the after the second 0-0 draw, and after that Aston Villa came to play full game in the second half and with that perfect substitution.
Aston Villa played better in the second half than it the first half. This was where everything started, and I also believe that the tension of Manchester city topping the league also contributed to Arsenal's performance in the match.

Balley came from the bench to open the scoreline, which made Arsenal eager to equalize the goal, and the lost focus on their defense. I hate it when things turns out like this, because it might be difficult for City to drop points. This will give both Liverpool and Arsenal a slim chance of becoming EPL winner 2023/2024 season.

WTF, Liverpool even struggle against Crystal Palace, this is no joke. If Liverpool lose in this match, I don't believe they can win either in Premier League or Europa League.

On the other match, Fulham also make a surprise they can score 2 goals without any conceded, West Ham performance decline a lot.

So far we're seeing two surprises in two matches, will we see another surprise in Arsenal vs Aston Villa? Grin

The match between Liverpool and Crystal Palace has ended with Crystal Palace winning 1-0 over Liverpool, really quite a surprising result and frankly I think at this time Liverpool are starting to get a little out of the championship zone, Liverpool's defeat today is of course very grateful by Arsenal and Manchester City fans because it opens up their chances of winning the league this season,  I honestly didn't expect Liverpool to drop points to a team like Crystal Palace and even now it looks like Anfield are starting to be unfriendly with Liverpool after two consecutive defeats this week.
Liverpool is still in shock of the defeat by Atalanta, and they could not overcome it easily, which was what affected their performance. I have already thought of it after Atalanta won them 3-0, that it will not make them perform well on the field toady. I watched the match to see how they could cope with the defeat, but we are humans and emotions play a major role in our actions.

This shows that Liverpool is making their chance of winning the league this season slimmer, because anything that makes Arsenal not to win their match today, and Manchester city remains on top of the table, they will never drop point till the league will be over.
