Al Hilaal actually played so well even too well to deserve a loss tonight but since it is football, no matter what you played, if you did not score and instead concede, you will lose the match. Al Nassr is so lucky to have gotten that 1 minute goal from Otavio, which they are able to defend till the 90th minute. They deserve to win the match honestly and I hope they are able to withstand the last minutes pressure from Al Hilaal. This match have spoilt the clean record Al Hilaal is keeping in their league this season and I'm sure Al Nassr will celebrate tonight's win as though they won the trophy. It was indeed a nice pound of flesh they took from their oppressor.

Edit: Al Hilaal scored on penalty at the 90 +10 minutes and that changes everything for Al Nassr and ensured that their unbeaten record lingers.

Such a shame it has to end this way for Max Allegri at Juventus. He has made great contribution to the team, took them to Champions Final and won several trophies for the club. If not what I will say is hard luck, he would have won the Champions League.

I know he will feel so bad at this development. We cannot blame the management, who saw his behaviour as crossing the red line. I will only wish him luck in his future endeavor and I feel the best decision for him now is to coach a national team, the same thing I'm expecting from Jose Mourinho. The oil money might come calling though, let's see how it goes.

I saw an article that described Kane as a player that have performed better than the name and popularity following him. It did not take me time to realize that the English media are at it again. Kane may be a very fantastic player, I love him so much, but the truth is that he enjoys media hype simply, just like everything British(not being racist please). I asked some female friends of mine if they know about Barcelona or Real Madrid, they said know that the only club they know are Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester United. I was shocked but then I quickly realized the publicity those teams enjoy in my part of the globe. I think this is one thing that Kane was enjoying at Tottenham that made it become a task for him to live up to when he went to Germany. The entire German eyes were on him, a big name that should be like the messiah. Well, he still have time to live up to expectations as his career is still looking fine. 

I have not gotten to the point where I target to make a million in gambling, maybe my method of playing and the type of gamble I focus on made it so. I have always believed in building my funds from little to something significant and not getting rich overnight. This mindset might be what is stopping me from targeting major jackpot hence the reason I have not gotten close to winning a very big amount in gambling. Another thing is that I go for low risk games and as you know, the lower the risk the lower the amount that can be won. If I make some adjustments to these, I'm sure I will be targeting million in the near future and this is not a bad idea.

Even though I don't feel comfortable attaching so much spirituality to gambling, it is still possible that some people are just naturally lucky that they win effortlessly.  I don't know if this has anything to do with their destiny or not and if it does, then it is possible that their could be some spiritual max they could win.

However, I wouldn't want to accept that destiny play a part in gambling, I can't just fathom how this will be possible. I have to see what others have to say, so I can learn. If it is, there is no way an individual can verify his case

Things like this actually feels good for those who are yet to fully be committed to Bitcoin. Perhaps your friend have now understood that he can actually make money from Bitcoin. What I will suggest is that you guide him on how to make better Bitcoin investment decisions which is holding for longer period of time. This short term trade has several challenges because if you ask him what his next plan is, you will be surprised to know that he is probably confused now and not knowing what to do. The danger of this is that he might want to repeat the process but there is guarantee that he will get the same result and if price lingers to give profits, he might panic and sell at loss.

I don't know how you are able to place "guaranteed outcome" in a discussion that involves gambling but from my end, gambling is entirely a thing of probability with nothing guaranteed. I have had funny experiences such as having my bet spoilt by the smallest odd in an accumulator. I have also seen see where a small odd like 1.05 lost to a small team playing them in their home and give 50+ odd. My experience has taught me to focus on a series of bets rather being confident of winning a particular bet.

I don't seem to know about the cheating side of Manchester City, perhaps they cheat by outspending other teams in terms of buying key players. No, this may not be the case, maybe you can clarify on how they are able to cheat at the glaring eyes of the VAR.

Ops seems you have forgotten that they are the defending champion of the UCL which I don't know if it qualifies as tournament playoff stage.

Seems you have already concluded that Manchester City will win West Ham in their last match. You might not be far from truth because everything seems to favour that. The desperation in Pep Guardiola, as seen in their last match against Tottenham when we he sat on the groud in fear of Tottenham scoring the equalizer, is a testament to that. If it happens that Manchester City eventually wins the league, I will give it to them because it is a well deserved win. They played well, entertained their spectators and still demonstrated an unparalleled determination. Apart from France and Germany, I don't think there is any league that a record like that of Manchester City is possible.

I would have loved to know which medium those stories were shared because most of the people who share success stories about their investment do it to attract people to their schemes which usually end up in scams. The early adoptors are mostly minding their business and wouldn't want to be known for reasons I think are not far from security.  Nevertheless, I have been privileged to know some successful Bitcoin investors, and it was only possible because I inquired, not that they shared such information with the public.

The majority of people who investment in BItcoin with the right mindset and approach usually have success. Right mindset means not wanting to get rich overnight and not giving in to fear and doubt and holding patiently for a long time. The other set of people who actually experience loss in Bitcoin are those who buy the hype and are eager to see their investment multiplied the next day. When they see something contrary to their expectations,  they usually sell at loss and live to spread fud and all manners of negativity against Bitcoin.

The function of the staffs are numerous and also varies with the position. Generally, all staffs are moderators and by this they handle issues that violate the forum rules and to ensure there is orderliness in the forum. When a post or a user is reported to the moderators, it goes to the staffs who handle them. I think some some staff also have the ability to ban accounts violating the forum rules.

For those assigned to moderate specific boards, they have power to delete substandard posts, move topics to archive or off-topics or outrightly lock them when the need arises.

Seems you are mixing things up here. Like many people already commented,  moderator = staff. All moderators' names are displayed as staff except those displayed as Global moderators that have permission across boards.

You are right, the only exception are the Global moderators that have no limits to board they can moderate.

There is an unwritten rule that trading is 20% skill and 80% psychology. What this means is that irrespective of how much technical skill you have as a trader, if you don't have a proper psychology, you will not succeed. Let me give you a simple example, most traders make money in paper trading by this I mean demo trading but the moment they go live which is trade with real money, they begin to experience losses as if the market is against them. This is purely a psychology thing.  With the paper trading, there is no fear of losing the money, trades are executed freely and the judgement is not impeded by greed, this is how real money is made unlike the real account that is traded with fear and greed.

My response does not in any way mean that I encourage newbies to go into trading rather they can focus more in buying and holding Bitcoin. This is more peaceful and reliable. Most of us still regret why we never held the amount of Bitcoin that passed through our wallets, which were traded and wasted in ways we cannot account for; we learnt the hard way but then, it is the process.

It's so surprising how Tottenham could not hold the match to a draw when they had the chance. What pained me so much today is the fact that Tottenham couldn't even score a single goal and this singular laxity has cost me money as I played them over 2.5 and over 3.5 combined with Real Madrid that have given me the results I wanted already. Tottenham, Liverpool and Manchester United are three teams that have gotten so worse that it has become extremely difficult trusting them.

At this point, I don't think it is too early to congratulate Manchester City on their well deserved title win. They have West Ham to play as their last match while their runner up Arsenal will face Everton. The worst thing that can happen is Manchester City playing a draw with West Ham but then, there is no guarantee that Arsenal is going to win Everton.

I just pray say people go fit see the importance of this topic because this thing called plagiarism don kill plenty people accounts, no be only newbies but even reputable members wey everybody been dey admire. I think na last year wey one popular person called Ratimov get issue, and the origin of that issue na this plagiarism of a thing and na this issue later make them fuck him style up last last.

If person take small time look bpip.org, person go see plenty accounts wey them done ban based on plagiarism, which means say for this forum as well as anywhere in the digital world and print media, plagiarism na big offense.

The reason many people dey commit this plagiarism be say them wan form expert untop another person idea, forgetting say nobody know everything. Giving credit to who get the idea no go harm you or make you look stupid, because them say knowledge is continuous,  so while you dey add to wetin person done already put for ground, give credit to the original owner. Pride na another thing we gat control too because e fit make person fall enter into plagiarism.

This may seem like a solution to gambling addiction as it makes access to gambling platform a little stressful using desktop unlike mobile phones that is easier but I can tell you that this will not solve gambling addiction in reality. A gambling addict is like someone suffering from drug addiction and until that urge is quenched, there cannot be rest. So even though the gambler is constrained to use desktop alone, he will always gamble with the same energy and frequency.

The only solution is to always seek help from professionals who can help the gambler get over the addiction or use other means to solve the addiction problem.

Another day for Real Madrid to exercise their muscle on a weaker team, their typical action of oppressor. I'm expecting them to win Deportivo Alaves without much resistance even though they are not compelled to do that as the league is already settled. Such wins might just be to maintain their playing pattern and as a training for the final between Borussia Dortmund.

As usual, I will drop a bet of over 3.5, a high probability bet which I hope to combine with Tottenham against Manchester City.  Even if Manchester City wins Tottenham today, the later will definitely score at least a goal.

This topic is not to insult or downplay the efforts of our governments but to state my observation based on the little research I did and also ensure we look at the opportunities presented by cryptocurrency in a broader perspective.

By youths I mean students and fresh graduates. These clarification is necessary so we could streamline the discussion to get a better conclusion.

I have searched through most jobs posting websites and editorials, most of the jobs posted has 5-10 years working experience as requirement. Meaning they were not posted for the youths and fresh graduates. Last year I went to Federal Civil Service Commission headquarters, I was shocked to see that none of their employee fall within my description of youths, their jobs are mainly shared among the high and mighty and never posted for the public and even when they do, it is just for formalities. Same thing was seen at Podium block Rivers State where you will hardly find a fresh graduate or young person working actively unless few of them working as erand boys and girls to the big shots.

Now let's see how cryptocurrency made the difference.
I don't think there is anyone that will argue that majority of people into cryptocurrency in Nigeria are the youths under the category of students, fresh graduates and those who graduated but due to unemployment or being underemployed, they chose cryptocurrency to support the poor pay. Some of the ways youth make a living from cryptocurrency in Nigeria include but not limited to :

• Merchant in Exchanges: I have many numbers of merchants I trade with on p2p of some exchanges, I saved them and view their WhatsApp status where the also advertise their businesses and I was shocked to realised that majority of them are still in the universities.
• Crypto Trading: Majority of the crypto traders I know are youths.  This can be easily verified when you join some of the trading groups around both in WhatsApp and Telegram. I'm in many of them and I happen to know a good number of young guys who are actively trading even when they are still in the universities
• Cryptocurrency Mining: Although Bitcoin mining is not really that big in Nigeria, a lot of Nigerian youths are actively mining in small scale. Not only Bitcoin but other coins. I got to know the huge interest of people in mining through Pi Network that many youths mined in large quantity. For several weeks, Pi Network was a dominant trend in Twitter Nigeria
• Bitcointalk: I think a good number of Nigerians in this forum are students and young graduates. Many are earning through different means like bounties, airdrops, signature, contests and others.

If you add the various ways cryptocurrency have created jobs for students and the youths, you will agree with me that our goverment are far behind in terms of employment creation for the youths and stduents. As a matter of fact, i do think there is even provision for students job as it is in some parts of the world... here is always graduation before getting a job.

I don't seem to understand you. Are you by any means saying that if a gambler looses, the right thing to do is to change strategy? You believe there is a method that will guarantee winning all the time? If your answers to these questions are affirmative, then your approach to gambling is totally different from mine.

There is no method that will not involve loss so what the gambler is interested in is a method that gives minimal losses such that the wins outweigh the losses. In other words, any strategy that gives the gambler edge in the long run should be the ultimate focus rather than looking for a perfect method where there is no losses. Personally I'm comfortable with any strategy that has a 50% win rate when the multiplier is at least x3. This way, I can lose 5 times out of 10 and still be in good profit.

Thanks for the wonderful piece of information. I have been long in Bitcoin but I have not noticed this aspect of taxation for buying and selling cryptocurrency between users. I know of taxation in some altcoins during trading in DEX, maybe I have not been paying too much attention to BTC transactions or the tax might be too insignificant that I never noticed. A link to broader explanation on this subject would have helped a lot.

I'm still wondering how and why they want to earn tax from Bitcoin in a country that Bitcoin users are treated with disdain. The ongoing crackdown on crypto users in Nigeria should be a clear indication that our government does not have any justification for taxing proceeds from crypto and even if they do, I wonder how they will achieve that when most of the trades are done via p2p.

It was truly a beautiful goal from Trossad, a typical defensive error because he was free and never marked by any defender.  It was beautifully converted to goal as the keeper watched the ball helplessly.
Arsenal is really doing doing well especially in their scoring and I must admit that the also have some measure of luck on their side else Manchester  United would have converted one of their numerous chances. If Arsenal holds this match as it is till half time, it will be a remarkable achievement which they have to use the break to restrategise because it seems their current formation is putting more pressure on them instead of being on the attack. 

Sometimes I dey ask myself how we take reach the point wey be say na the dullest and worst set of people wey dey for position of power for our country. As if them settle down. Select all the block heads come put them for power. The one wey dey pain me be say these people claim say them go school yet they no fit do small research for anything wey them no understand. How human being go talk say crypto dey harm our economy? Why e go be only our economy cryptocurrency go harm and not other people economy? This one dey show say the people we claim say them go school no really know wetin the world dey talk.


Them use muscle collect power yet them no know how to rule. See as them scatter everywhere, putting 133 million people onto adject poverty out of 200 million wey we be for our country.Na God go really help us for this country.
