I paused activities when it comes to betting this weekend because I've lost alot these past few days. Bayern Munich destroyed their opponent without thinking for the second time, they humbled everyone with their stellar performance and this is a direct message sent to Bayer Leverkusen to get ready for the top competition for the Bundesliga title because the Bavarians are coming, and this time, they're coming with everything they got left. A whooping score of 8-1 is defined as a triumphant victory. Bayern Munich humiliated Mainz today at the Allianz Arena. This have been an important winning and a direct force to achieved the most important points.

It is not over until it is over they say although the last two matches by Bayern Munich have made them showcase that they actually are the defending champions and one of the most feared club in the whole European football. But do this wins have impact on their catastrophic season? I will say the win against Lazio does have an impact at least they can still get their season back and fight for the champions league. But all this hammering of Mainz just looks like a faint hope at place where there is none.

This current Bayer Leverkusen side do not by any chance look like the Dortmund side of last season that fell off. They are ready to go all the way to the wire for this but still there is mathematical a hope for Bayern Munich and if they can produce results like today then we might have an exiting end to this great season

I would say that the team that loses this match will have to give up their hopes of winning the title. This match is very important for both Liverpool and City. Liverpool team is ahead of Manchester City by only 1 point.
If this match is a draw, and if Arsenal win their next match against Brentford, then Arsenal will be at the top of the table.

I don’t think that a team that loses this game will have to give up the league just already, there would still be 10 games left after that match which means a possible 30 points to me. Should Liverpool win they will be ahead of Manchester City with just four points and should Manchester city win they will be ahead of Liverpool with just two points. So it wouldn’t be over for any of them most especially when both teams still have top teams to play Against and also team’s fighting relegation and European places which are dangerous to play at the time when season is ending

Manchester City have played very well in their last three matches against Liverpool. However, Manchester City lost in the previous two matches. And Liverpool vs Manchester City matches are always very competitive. Both Liverpool and Manchester City are in very good form right now. So it is difficult to predict which team will win. Betting on this match is also very risky. I will take my  betting decision after looking at the starting XI of the two teams.

This game is one tricky game that no matter the form of both teams it is unpredictable. Both teams haven’t lost at home this season I think and we all know how bad Manchester City record at Anfield is. I would have go for a Liverpool straight win base on past matches at this ground but with their injury crisis at the moment I will say it’s a tricky test for them. For anybody trying to bet on this game it will better to avoid it and pick another game because it will definitely end both ways. My prediction thing is a home win or draw

Barcelona do not deserve to be in second, Girona deserve it more because they have really worked hard this season. Barcelona have just been disappointing, and their performance very unsatisfactory. Last week I really expected them to win that game and be in second, so that the win this week will be to solidify their position, they missed their opportunity, and the lovers of the club will be hoping that this week, since they have started with a narrow win, will want Girona to drop points too, that should not be the standard the club should be at.

I always say this, the way both Real Madrid and Barcelona usually get the two top spot almost every season even after playing bad always makes me to agree that the league isn’t that competitive. Barcelona this season in another league will have been places below the top after this awful season so far but look at them right at the top. This things are part of why I feel Barcelona do not do much to improve because they don’t see yet that they are in deep crisis. Look at Napoli who to me are better this season than Barcelona are languishing in the 8 position in their league. If This thing should happen to Barcelona and they fail to qualify for the Champions league the board will put more effort to rebuild or restructure the club.

As for Girona they need to get back to form of they truly want to keep the champions league hope alive. Just a win in the last five matches isn’t convincing, they might soon be dragged down to fight for the UCL if they don’t get back there form. The game Against Osasuna should be easy but with their recent form it is better for stakers to stay away from games like this

Why on earth would David De Gea laugh at the current status of Manchester United? He was one time Manchester United player and wouldn't want to mock sthem in this situation. This might still be wrong though. Take a good at the good sides of Andrea Onana, don't let your dislike for a player cloud your judgment.

There's no fauckin relationship between Erik Ten Hag and Manchester United old owners ( Glazers ) Still breaks my heart why they failed to sell the club the Saudi Arabians.

Cristiano Ronaldo also had his own bad side of this story, as he failed to report early to Manchester United training and Pre season, in his quest for a new club which did not come correct. Yeah, he was disrespected by Erik Ten Hag and deserves an apology but he should have reported when other players did. Ronaldo has never been the problem, Erik Ten Hag only wanted set of players he can control within and carefully.

First person here that I see is not making this Ten Hag Ronaldo judgement on sentiment. Ten Hag might have been wrong for the last treatment of Ronaldo but we should look at how disrespectful Ronaldo was before that time. You missed preseason and didn’t return while your agent was rounding around clubs offering you to them and the media used it to put a pressure on ten hag.

Ronaldo second coming to me should have never happened he was bigger than the club at that time and caused a change of direction of the club because he was the center then and this caused OLE his job. United had played in the final of Europa League and finished second to Manchester City before Ronaldo arrival. What United needed that time was only a new younger striker to partner cavani, Defensive midfielder and a center back. It was all that was needed then. Ronaldo should have stayed away because the club was too me too small to contain him

Bitcoin this year really having a unpredictable stages , now its stable at 67k and looks like stagnant for couple of days now.

In this also is the time that we are in status coupe and with that? I am keeping my eyes in market because if by chance I will buy low sell high lol.

Touched a $70k today, but fell back more again. We have actually set a new ATH at that particular price but once bitcoin gets there it definitely falls down again. Which signifies that there are many sell options creating a strong resistance at that top for now. Also once the price fall it gets to $60k-$65k it stops which signifies a strong support at that level too. I have been watching the price for a week now and it keeps this ranging like that. So for now if you’re looking for a low I will simply say set a limit at around $62k to buy because that’s the lowest range for now I see bitcoin coming down too until we reach probably a $80k where I feel heavy sell will bring it down a to below $60k region. But still this prediction cannot be certain so rather do a daily DCA it is more secure

There are so many types of cryptocurrency scam and we need to be aware of them if not we could be a victim of it.
It is good when we ask questions about some certain investments so that we don't because a victim of cryptocurrency scams that would take all our hard earned money. There are so many good projects we can invest in make money for ourselves if we know what we are doing avoiding unnecessary problems we might incurred in the future.

You are right there are many scams circulating round the cryptocurrency space but it is not even necessary to have to know them all because it will be a waste of time as scammers are deploying new ways everyday. Look at phishing scam through wallet connect, it is a very old trick since the existence of this space and yet people still fall victims of it. This is not gullible people but rather people with knowledge. The reason why scammers will always get victims is because people are either careless on little things Like the security of their wallet or the greediness of people.

Conquering those two things will be the part way to not getting scammed. This two things will teach you that only scammers will come to your DM to tell you about investment opportunities because I don’t think humans love each other to that extent to just DM them about opportunities

Bitcoin is certainly a great choice for long-term investment - that's because of its potential to grow in price. But maybe you need to realize that the price of bitcoin will not always be high, there are times when the cycle will make the price go down. You need to have a good plan about when to buy and hold and when you should sell - essentially you need to plan when to take advantage of it.

After all – you don't have to imagine things like what happened in the past. Prices could rise 2x to 4x from now - but could also fall lower than expected. Nothing is certain so no matter how great the potential – you still have to consider the risks too.

I actually second your suggestion and I think even the OP himself knows that, bitcoin long term investment is not only about just holding till eternity but also applying the strategy of taking profits from the investment. The whales that actually we see not taking profits also do have targets of a long term to take profits too. Holding of bitcoin also involves the ability to sale at the right time. A clear example was when bitcoin broke the ATH it immediately had a very flash dump which signifies many have placed a withdrawal at that point. This people might be waiting again for may be a dump to get into the market back again. So when people talk of long term holding they definitely have plans of selling

Binance settled to the US for $4B. But $10B? Binance will also be demanding a big favor from the government in exchange for that $10B.  With such a huge money, I think those Binance executives can buy a seat in the government already. 

If this is what the Nigerian government are looking at because US fined the binance exchange at a ground more compelling than what the Nigeria government is doing right now. Although I am not backing the US government too bought their reason was that a huge some of money was moved through binance to a terrorist group and was indications that something shaddy had actually happened and that’s why even CZ had to give in and resign and also the fine was paid. But the government saying that binance exchange had something to do with the Naira depreciation is just ridiculous.
249  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: March 07, 2024, 10:38:49 PM
I think you are wrong. Some players brought high transfer profits to Dortmund and later returned to the team for free or for very little fee. For example, Sancho. There are many such players, and they easily send young players to the big teams in Europe for high amounts of money. Bellingham is the latest example of this. If Borussia Dortmund wants to pay a high contract, I do not think there will be a financial problem for the club. Only the observer network is very good and they can easily recruit the stars of the future at affordable prices. This is their advantage.

Yes other players return but there return is always not a good one, either they had a bad time where they went and needed to come back and feel at home or they don’t have playing time there it’s all depends on something but mostly it is definitely about the players having problem. Now look at those players, whenever they do come back Dortmund don’t they have their wages slashed by half, the lucky ones are the ones coming on loan there parent club pay the reminder for them.

It is not all about selling players that would make Dortmund to have that funds that wouldn’t land them in Financial Fair play problems, there are other things like what you make aside the selling of players too. Take example of the sale of Sancho to Manchester United, the transfer was prolonged because Dortmund were hesitant to sell at that moment but it was reported that they had financial problems and needed more funds so they had to simply sell off. So in essence they don’t have the ability to hold on to top players a lot because they wouldn’t be able to handle the wages
250  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: March 07, 2024, 09:48:53 PM
Aston Villa should be more careful of Tottenham taking their place than worry much on finishing first, mostly likely they can't finish first place unless the top 3 teams experience worst performance but is that even possible right now? I don't think so. Arsenal is 6 points away from them which means they need to make atleast 3 wins in a row or even more before they can over take Arsenal but you will agree with me that Tottenham are yet to play their 27th match that was postponed.

If Aston Villa really continued the way they started the season, the only team that would probably be competing with them will only be Liverpool because they have so far lose only 2 games. The best Aston Villa can do right now is they don't lose any matches from henceforth else they risk sleeping in the 5th place which is going to be automatic qualifications to Europa League instead of the Champions League.

Aston Villa are definitely out of the league race just like Tottenham. Both of them had the opportunity to either be on the top now or be a worthy contender but injury to some players of the both teams actually affected them. Right now both clubs only have one position to actually fight for which is the top 4. Yes the number between the league leader’s Liverpool and Aston Villa on the fourth position is not much but it will be extremely difficult to cover up that space because even if one team drops all those points, Aston Villa can’t get there because there are other clubs too at the top and you can’t expect them to all lose those points at same time.

As for the last champions league spot it will be harsh to have any of the Tottenham or Aston Villa team out, but i read that a new format could see 5th place in EPL qualify for the champions league
251  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: A little ignorance and you can lose all your holdings on: March 06, 2024, 11:56:13 PM

I guess you didn't read through the topic, OP said he wasn't scammed but lost his holdings out of carelessness to a data recovery specialist due to his hard drive that stored his seed phrase was bad, so the whole thing here is either the story is fake or the data specialist somehow knew that he had seed phrase stored there.

The first mistake of the guy was trust a device to hold his bitcoin keys there have been warnings of wear of this devices and that’s what happened. Firstly I see this story mor like fiction and not real, the data recovery specialist must have a knowledge about the whole bitcoin thing and was also aware that the drive brought for repairs has the seed phrase either it was the owner that told him or he cracked the drive and saw the keys. This is the only two scenario because seed phrase on a device doesn’t mean that bitcoin was on that device because bitcoin are stored on the blockchain and only keys stays on the device which means someone has had access to those keys and moved the bitcoin elsewhere.

  On a serious note, me I no really know the reasons why binance restrict Nigerians from p2p for their exchange, but one thing I hear be say government arrested 2 CEO of binance for Nigeria and tem also request for the names and the identities of the Nigerians we dey use binance.

This issue get as e be but one thing Dey very clear binance no want enter another tussle with another country due to the services just like when they bin get issue with U.S.A. government wey even land them fine and their CEO in to CZ into jail. The Nigerian government been Dey blame binance as part of those manipulating the Naira/Dollar of a thing and Also the other saga of $26B going through binance. I think say binance just wan Dey very careful in this case and that’s why them just discontinue anything related to Naira.

I somehow like that thing because I wan see where or who government go blame again as binance no Dey again, maybe them go come for another exchange before them go realize where to actually fix this problem which me I personally know say them know too

Dortmund have had a lot of very skilled players in this time period indeed. Haaland for example was a great transfer for them. But they sold him and many such skilled players like him. They have been making a lot of money thanks to this kind of agreements though. But selling so many players such as Haaland, Bellingham and many more is moving them away from a title chance.  Sad

They were actually quite close to achieve a title in the previous season but they wasted a huge chance there as well. Leverkusen are about to make it in only one season with Xabi Alonso after starting to compete for the title.  Smiley

Dortmund seriosuly is club where youngsters flourish before moving elsewhere, i wouldn't blame them to keep any of this sold players because first they don't have that financial capability to keep them like the big spending clubs due to the growing wages. Secondly this players will definitely wants to move even if they try to keep them, most of this players could even go as far running down their contract just to move example is Lewandowski move to bayern, which would make them miss out on huge profits of selling them. So as long as Dortmund aren't that bouyant yet to keep high wage players, the best thing is for them to sell off

Leipzig are ramping up the attacks as the regular time draws near. This is a dangerous game for Real Madrid but they are also defending quite well. I don't think this will go to extra time but we've seen enough of late game turn arounds even in added time.

And that is that as madrid wrap up the win this was a match that many thought madrid should have had esaily won but a great fight by Leipzig to bring this game like this should appluaded, this is reason why no team in this competition at this stage are not underrated. madrid wasn't convincing today with this win but still in the end they got it done. they still remain my favourite to lift this trophy, follow by manchester city

Massimiliano Allegri was having a successful period at Juventus until the last few weeks, but after back-to-back bad results with Juventus in recent weeks, he suddenly became the target of criticism. However, we should not ignore the fact that Napoli last season and Inter this season are really dominating Serie A. It's not easy to compete with these teams. I don't find Massimiliano Allegri too unsuccessful. Also, when Spaletti left Napoli he said he wanted to spend more time with his family. If he accepts Juventus' offer now, I think he will conflict with himself.

that's one mixed feeling about football once a club isn't playing well the manager becomes the center of attraction or is been used as the scapegoat without looking at the performances of the players. Allegri to mean shouldn't even have returned for the second stint because the club was already having issues beyond the coaching power only. the crisis around the club facing sanctions numerously is already bound to make things hard for them. to me they are even doing well under him but still a change wouldn't be bad.

i don't find spalleti a bad coach but if he is the one to replace Allegri then to me he is a little downgrade but looking at what he did at Napoli it will be a real test for him. also him going back on his words doesn't mean a thing he might be tired already of the whole and would wants to return early that's how football his sometimes

That’s actually what usually happens when a thing concerns speculation, if at all you had even removed the game from the bet you will be surprised that it will go your way still. One thing about this whole thing is to trust your set up and if your instincts doubts something just let it go, although people say no risk no reward but I will say it is better not to place a bet than to lose it. In sport bet once a team like Leeds are inconsistent then it is better to avoid them from you games totally

They can convince Mbappe to stay at Paris Saint Germain, but I don't know how good they can get from a player who has made up his mind to leave the team.
Don't ever jeopardize the presence of Kylian Mbappe at Parc des Princes stadium because he's the ultimate player in everything regarding France football. A player become better and good in delivering his team when he has value and knows what's at stake for his team. Kylian Mbappe is leaving Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the season but it's well known for his incredible qualities, displaying them for the club and also in the active produce of stellar performance of PSG. Leaving PSG will signify a huge loss for the team and Luis Enrique emphasized on playing league games with out the aides of Mbappe and that alone is really affecting the club.

The more reason why the entire French league do not want Mbappe to leave is because he currently is the center of attention in world football and that alone brings attention to the entire league as some advertisers will look for advert in that league. But should he leave the they will lose viewers and sponsors because the league will lack a talisman like him that’s why even the president seems to have a go at this.

But personally I think he needs to move because the French clubs cannot contain him and the future that lies ahead. Mbappe is tipped to win balon D’Or one day, I don’t see him doing that in a club where there league seems to be less competitive. Also shifting to another big league will boost his chances
258  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC created new ATH before Halving: are you surprised? on: March 05, 2024, 10:27:01 PM

Anyway, the fact that the bull run to an ATH has started long before the halving in every case strongly indicates that it is unrelated to the halving process.

I would say it is still related to the halving period. Yes most of this pumping is associated to the ETF approved which had many investors to bag more bitcoin but decision also was shaped by the upcoming halving, most of the traders will have actually invested because they think that with bitcoin halving coming and an almost guaranteed bull run after it, they will think Lowest they can get bitcoin will be before the halving and That’s probably why they choose to invest early.

Another reason could be associated with the fact that there more adopted people currently on bitcoin and the awareness of bull run and other bitcoin events have spread more than In the past and as such many have taken a position already, which is different to former halving events.

After Kevin De Bruyne recovered, Manchester City turned the Premier League into a more exciting league. I think if Kevin De Bruyne had been out for the season due to injury, Manchester City would not have stayed in the title race until the last weeks. Pep Guardiola is a system coach but his team is shaped by one man. This season, we have seen that without Kevin De Bruyne, Manchester City is not the clear favorite in every match. Also, I think Manchester City is the favorite in the Liverpool vs Manchester City match. The betting odds of the match also show Manchester City as the favorite.

This current system by Guardiola is center at the player De Bruyne but in the past it was not center at him only Guardiola had playmakers like David Silva and Gundogan to actually sort things out. In fact the season that city did a 100 points and the following season he was out injured but Manchester city cope but right now I can say that the club or team play is center on two to three players which Rodri, De Bruyne and Halaand.

That's why having a coach that's not much experience could lead to the team performing very bad, Ten hag pattern of coaching is one of the problem Manchester United is having because it doesn't always work well for them, at first I was thinking that with time Manchester United will get use to him but with the way there performance is reducing I don't think Ten hag has the best coaching quality to bring Manchester United to there former state because as a coach if a particular pattern is not working for the club the best thing is to change the pattern instead of continuing using it because that's one of the things that affected Manchester United on that match.

See I will have to disagree with you, even if I don’t think Ten Hag should continue with the squad but seriously you can see that his clear pattern is a team that holds possession and a team that plays from the back. But it is obvious that this players don’t want to or don’t know how to play it. If united should decide on sacking Ten Hag the I think they should also look at the releasing this players too because this doesn’t seems to work out and it is not on the coach alone

I owned different wallets already, several hardware wallets, hot wallets, cold wallets but never had experience of losing those important thing (seeds, passwords, email, etc) for recovery. Plus i placed those things in only one area only so i didn't find it somewhere else if ever i needed it.

This is actually a good way of saving things because this way you know where the precious stuff is and this narrow down your search whenever you need to search for it. But my problem with this method of one place storage of different wallet seed phrase is the single point of failure it offers to me. Although you can be a very carefree or say private person that know one can be know maybe you have coins or not but still shit happens, should any one get hodl of that paper or know of that place, the whole Wallets are exposed, most especially when he doesn’t needs to look for the individual wallets used to generate the seed except of the wallets that customize their seed seed like electrum if not one wallet will just be used to recover those seeds, i still think multiple palace of storage for each seed phrase is better
