2801  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: September 19, 2023, 07:22:17 PM
It is really unbelievable that Milan still couldn't manage to score any goal. They have wasted so many opportunities generously. Rafael Leao's fail after great moves was really a disappointment. He wanted to score an artistic goal but messed it up. The first half was completely under control of Milan. I would have expected them to finish the half by a few goals ahead to tell the truth.

Milan are still fighting with their everything but there is still no goal while there are 10 minutes left to the end. Newcastle are defending them with like all of their players at the moment. They just want to secure one point after struggling a lot against this Milan dominance. I would love to see Milan winning this as they deserve it but let's see.

Milan had very good dominance in this match but unfortunately, Milan did not succeed in turning the opportunities they had into goals. Although indeed, with statistics like this, Milan should have scored in this match, but Milan couldn't do it well. Of course, a draw at home is a bad result for Milan, unless Milan doesn't have good statistics then it's probably natural that the result is a draw. But yes, a draw like this also at least opens up opportunities for Newcastle, maybe they will produce the same result in the next match. Because honestly, it seems that in this group phase we are quite looking forward to the results that Newcastle will get as newcomers to the Champions League this season.
Well at the end of the day both club ended the match on a 0:0 score which is one settling point point for both clubs,  AC Milan vs Newcastle is a game of clubs that are in the same category and there for to get one to defeat the other is will be by chances and not skills since both clubs have same level of lineup,  but more also AC Milan seems to have hard the dominance in the match but failed to convert those chances into goal all through the 90+ minutes.

Even in their last match,  their also failed to score any good point and the season is graddulay progressing and very soon their will start facing more tougher clubs in the leagues.

True, there are times that prediction may win but in terms of constant win inside gambling that's really something that we can say not usual, there's no guarantee even the odd is really good or even you pick small percentage of losing if luck is not with you that kind of bet will still or can still be lost, sports betting group may exist and will continue to provide services both free and paid predictions but one thing is for sure, with gambling, there are no such kind of sure bet, everything still have it's respective risk once you place your bet/money inside.
At some point I wanted to conclude that,  gambling have it own lucky day and time,  this is because in gambling have discovered that some days I will have consistent winning at a certain time,  while if I continue the same patterns the following day,  iay experience significant loses no matter how hard I try to speculate the games correctly.

So it is very possible that while it become more obvious that in gambling there can never be continues winning,  but then we all have our lucky days which we must have in mind and follow up with the whole process accurately so as to stay ahead even if not all the time.
2803  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cockfighting? on: September 19, 2023, 04:06:19 PM
but whether we like it or not, this has been happening for many years , even before our ancestors so lets accept that fact.
Yes... indeed cockfighting activities have been around for many years. However, these activities and culture are no longer suitable to be displayed and preserved, because they have a negative impact.

But here in our country, that's not happening in the provinces. Nowadays,  there is cockfighting online that can be downloaded to our mobile phones via the Play Store, and there are many options, but not in all places here. Cockfighting is not legal in our country because it depends on the covering locale.

It is true that "cockfighting" only exists in a few places in this part of the world, because several regions and countries strongly oppose cockfighting activities carried out by some people through policies issued by the government. And to overcome illegal cockfighting, we only need stricter law enforcement, because law enforcement in several countries and regions can still be lobbied again and there are also many law enforcement officers who protect cockfighting activities.
On few occasions I have been privileged to witness this cockfight,  since this discussion began a few weeks ago,  but then at some point it still ball down to the fact that cockfighting only exist in some premitive location around the world,  some are in villages that have some level of f traditional settings that allow for some local games,  in the northern part in my country there use to have arranged cock games and this normally happens during some form of religion events that happened at seasonal period.

Welcome and let hope that we see more satisfying reviews on the new and old cryptocurrency casinos that we have around here and hoping to see how that will get us to a position were gamblers can see the thread as being helpful through the various reviews that you guys will be offering here.

Mind you,  your platform os not the first or the last casino review sites that we have,  and to let you know that we already know both the good reviews platform and the bad one who's reviews can't be rely on due to fake positive results for bad casinos actors and scam casinos.

So the ball is in your court you either build a good reputation for your business or the business get kick in the ass for being a bad actor,  which is why,  most times we rely on forum members review on casinos since they are the real users of the casino and not just third-party opinions.
2805  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will reach all-time-high before halving. - BitQuant on: September 18, 2023, 04:28:46 PM


As anyone can speculate on what may possibly happen, before or after halving, it is our own prerogative whether to put money into this market or not.
If we have good feeling about it and you have your funds to invest, why not? This is your money, so it is up to you where you want to channel your funds.
The prediction of price after halving is quite high, but if you do really think that this will happen, then, right now, you should be doing something to collect more satoshis.
What I am trying to convey here is that, each of us have different financial capabilities and beliefs on this market.
Thus, the decision is on you at the end of the day. Because whether you gain profit or not, it is your funds at stake.
Well that so funny,  you mean we should start investing since anyone can speculate and it can possibly happens,  it is still important to note and be prepared for sometimes where your speculations can still fails,  so while you may win,  some time you also lose that is how the market works,  and we have to play along with that,  and also we have to put in place measures that can help up to prevent possible outcome of negative markets.

This is very important because that is the only way we can protect our future investment using our past experiences in speculating Bitcoin market and the outcome of our speculations.

kyc sites are mostly scams the main purpose of KYC is fraud especially financial scams. The ability to quickly deposit money into an online casino account is one of the most important factors for players looking to gamble online. Fast safe and simple deposits make the whole gaming experience much smoother and more enjoyable but with kyc they leak personal information and are not fast in depositing and withdrawing. Blocking everything relying on KYC checks lack of knowledge and training and security complacency can mean that the level of risk is high for casinos leaving them open to fraud. Calling has its pros and cons so players should always choose sites that have their specifics in the payment section fulfills the demand.
I think you may have have a misconceptions around the meaning of kyc,  and you have overly associated kyc with scam which is something you may have to hard a rethink on,  because KYC is aimed at reducing crime so how then will you say that kyc is a scam without outlining your reason behind such statements.

One of the reason why casino demand for kyc is because,  kyc will reduce money laundering attempts and also help to stop the used of casino being used as a money mixer.

— Testnets are waste of time
— Zealy/Taskon/Galx and such platforms are waste of time
— Using platforms for sake of being interested can be rewarding while using them for sake of airdrop leads to burning

— Retrospective airdrop trend is too saturated, good amount of money is no longer found here
— Already announced airdrops are waste of time
— Projects/'X' influencers are milking the hype
— Minting NFTs to qualify is waste.

Paying transaction fees to get an airdrop rewar= scam.

Subscripbing to telegram,  face or twitter accounts of a project to get a test et coin is a waste of time,  waiting for bounty/airdrop coins to get listed on the exchange os a waste of time.

Joining any project group for followup,  with out an ANN thread in the forum is a waste of time.

I doubt what is worrying Man UTD is just management issues alone, maybe there's something else but if they don't improve, they will drop further than the 13th spot they're in. Maybe hitting 18 or 19 position might be enough to wake them up?
Everything.

The management, coach, and player are the reason why Manchester United can be like this.

Even Manchester United performed so bad, there's no way for Manchester United to hit as low as 18th position, at least they're better than Everton, Luton Town, and Sheffield United. It really looks impossible for big team to get relegated and play in league two.
Difficult times ahead. Looking at their long list of injured players, I can't help but think about the tough road Onana will face at Manchester United. It's probably a good moment to reconsider their defensive strategy, or else, ManU will keep facing defeat. They don't have a player who can turn the game around, and unfortunately, that's lacking in their current lineup.
Alot of football fans are already writing Manchester united off because of the multiple in number of their players that are currently on injury and haven't played for a while now,  resulting I to the declining results that Manchester United have recorded in recent time in the premier league,  the club have put a lot of efforts in place but then situations have warrant the club to have failed out in their recent performance.

So at that we have to give the club enough time to come up with a formidable team that can stand against any oppositions that may come up along the line.

Well now a days i observe the crypto market and now the trending topics is bot the projects like unibot , banana bot , unichat and many more giving huge profits to the early birds now i heard an upcoming project name Bubble bot and the website is Bubblebot.finance has a great potential and also spot trading, Hedge/risk on pegged asset, multistaking , future trading with limit orders and much more is offering on his telegram and discord bots and the team looks really competitive but my question is new projects are quite risky but also gives the huge profit so i want opinion from experts
Here is the website:
Bubblebot.finance

Just know that,  in choosing all the hypes around the crypto market you should be aware that in most cases you are just gambling with your money and nothing more than that,  so before you ride with the current trend just make sure you have your mind made up to risk part or whole of investment because bot projects,  just like all the other meme coins that have created some hypes are just based of pumped speculations that may not in the real sense make any significant market impact on the long run.

2810  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will reach all-time-high before halving. - BitQuant on: September 18, 2023, 03:45:42 PM
All these predictions without any proper technical analysis is useless. Yes we know that Bitcoins are approaching towards something big. But quoting a number out of nowhere doesn’t make any sense. We know Bitcoins follow a 4 year cycle in order to reach its new ATH price. 2024 is the 4th year and many have high expectations from it. So don’t waste time on predicting exact numbers. Buy and accumulate the coins in this low price and enjoy profits when new ATH is reached.
I agree with you on the fact that,  it is inappropriate to allocate any number to the price we perceived Bitcoin to reach before the March-April Bitcoin halving,  and for that what we can do is to speculate the price based on our assumptions of the fact that bitcoin have the possibility of reaching an amount that is beyond what we currently speculate.

At most we can say that Bitcoin could possibly break,  a level that may be higher than the last all time high price before the halving,  but certainly not making another all time high price before the next halving,  highest we can have is to come close to that amount of last ATH benchmark.

Na inflation cause everything,  because most time what Nigeria produce is raw materials and not finished goods because in most cases,  we still import almost all our basic necessities a d this have left us at the mercy of foreign exchange rate,  which now determine the price of basic goods in the market,  and that is the cause of the current economic downturn that we are witnessing today in the society.

Basic needs have become out of reach for the ordinary citizens and also the cost of living in general talking about housing and the rest of what have you have all gone so high that survival now is just by the grace and high calculations.

Sometimes when we listen to users who advise us to only focus on BTC, it strays us from making a profit especially when we see the potential of a token that may just dast track its bullish market.

I saw this Toncoin (TON) last year which had dropped to its lowest point. I almost bought some of it but just thought I would hold my BTC longer. Had I concluded my research and decided to buy, I would have made a big profit from TON. Now in the top 10.
This is the lamentation of many cryptocurrency investors including myself and most other members of this forum,  but then before you blame anyone or yourself about what hard happened in the pass that have limits your potential profits as perceived by you,  first take the time to check how many of those that have made such profits end up losing it to another scam tokens.

The reason members of the forum always advice you to do your own research before investing in any project including bitcoin because even with bitcoin,  your entry point and exit point matters when it comes to your profits maximization.

Being a religious person is not by face or mouth, it has to do with the real practice of what the religious beliefs says, many are just a figure head and are just following the crowd without doing the main practice, it's what deals with lifestyle and patterned way of life, if you're doing something over time and have no results to show for it, then it's high time to change the way of approach in doing it and check yourself.
Do we have to buy in to all those religious ideas and start taking responsibilities,  I agree with all that you have said and this is why I mostly don't be religious rather just be a good person,  and understanding the law of existence which os kama fhat deal fairly with everybody in the world,  I have come along a lot lately and with my level of understanding,  religion is man mad and there is no why you can practice it just like education without following the principles.

Without following the principles,  you can't get the results.
2814  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are You Tax Efficient With Your Gambling Habbits? on: September 18, 2023, 01:57:45 PM
Now I'm quite curious how other gamblers are managing this part of the story, if they manage it at all.

So, question to you, did you ever consider paying taxes on your gambling winnings, or deduct the taxes with the losses you've created? If not, what is the reasoning behind it?
Luckily my country is not like the US which imposes mandatory taxes on its citizens even for gamblers, gambling is legal here but only players who win big are required to pay tax and it will be automatically deducted from the winning players, but with the presence of casinos online crypto, it really makes things easier (taxation will not be able to track transactions via crypto) if i win then i don't need to report it to the state tax authorities, once again in my opinion income tax actually doesn't have to be mandatory, it's more of an ethical nature.
Most countries around the world have some level of tax friendness in the sense that the right to declare the amount you earn from gambling is all left in your hands,  this is why,  is the gambler who most report his winning to the tax office otherwise he will go on tax free, this is how most of the online activities and earning go on taxed in most cases.

For the fact that country does not issue licences to casinos,  makes it easy for gambling earnings to be untaxed.
2815  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casino features you like and Don't like but you don't mind on: September 18, 2023, 01:48:57 PM

Being able to deposited,  wager and withdrawals without kyc is what make me to stick with any casinos be it for short term and long-term base,  even though the casino is a KYC casino but still allows me to play for a specific period and under strict regulations.

I also would stick with casino that allows such withdrawal without KYC requirements at least for a certain amount so that I could just be withdrawing on that amount without bothering myself with KYC. I really don't like KYC especially the 4th level where document and selfie is requested which exposes your privacy to the public. For a casino that is not reputable, they can give someone's data out on request. So playing and withdrawing without the selfie request would get me stick out for the casino.
That is the perfect approach as a casino user to stay on guard and ahead of any possible privacy demands,  this is very important in the sense that you know how and what amount to transact that will not trigger up level 2 kyc which is the level of kyc most cryptocurrency lover does not like to go through,  because the site may demand for your ID which expose more details about you.

So for that the best possible,  acceptable level of KYC should be email and phone number verifications,  in case of 2FA security authentication.
2816  Economy / Economics / Re: What Actually Drives People/Gov to Adopt New and Bold Decisions on: September 18, 2023, 01:44:39 PM

So, the point i was trying to make here is, even after getting our own country other countries are still interfering in governments rules and taking things over. I don't like to mention names but many already knew. And just to clear i am not saying these statements to put my problems (my means my country) in front of you guys instead i am just using it as an example.


If your country is a sovereign nation with all the paraphernalia that makes it independent country and it is still having such interference, that makes your country is being recolonized and that is called neocolonialism. I think the reason is that your leaders have kept being stooge to other countries who are mingling with the affairs of your country and that means your country will not experience a total freedom and your growth rate economically, technologically and otherwise will be limited. Your country need to experience real freedom to grow.

For the fact that we have one cardinal meeting point makes it important for leaders of various countries to take conscious steps toniodate themselves and using acceptable economic tools to take advantage and negotiate the interest pf the country in the international communities, so the bottom line is that,  leaders of most third world countries such as countries from Africa struggle so much with neo colonialism and that have left the to depend on the west for economic supports meanwhile those elies are mostly their former colonial masters,  so this have made it very obvious and clear that there is a deliberate attempt to saburtsge the economic potential of most former colonized countries,  this also give birth to corruption because the reason why most countries who have experienced that level of economic meltdown and recessions to the point that the country now survive on importation and heavily indebted this are all features of a failing country.

Trades are determine by the amount of a countries GDP and if anyone failed to meet up with that GDP demand am afraid that such countries will experience all the crisis that we have all pointed out,  so that lead us to the question as to what make up for an independent country,  and how far have those countries who just got independent have done in term of developments.

They started to award more participants as much as possible and giving the free bonus is their way to appreciate the luck and real participants. There’s a lot of artist who skip the recent contest, I guess its because of the theme or maybe they there are just busy. Well, there’s a new art contest and I expect to see more participants this time as the theme is not that hard.
Some popular artists did not join recent contests does not mean Roobet contests become less attractive with them.

They have many activities in life and sometimes they don't have time to visit the forum or don't have time to create arts for joining recent art contests. They even have time but simply are lack of ideas to join. Many reasons and I can not step in shoes of artists to say why they did not participate in recent contests hosted by Roobet team and Hhampuz.
Well, you have a very good point which I personally agree to, another reason is the possiblity that some of this users must have made money some how and might not be particularly interested in contests with little amount of money as reward, saying this because I have a friend who used to be a forum buddy to me here, I heard he luckily made over $200,000 from a crypto he invested in a long time ago, then he completely stopped coming online here on the forum, he used to be very serious with signature campaign since that acted as his primary source of income for several months, or should I say over 2 years, but as soon as he made this money, he abandoned all that and left the forum completely.


The above is just one of the possibilities though, but still for me, the most likely reason is that which you have said, time, that is, lack of time due to whatever be the reason, and besides, the top creators not participating in this round of the contest, simply means they are giving other lesser contestants the opportunity to become top creators as well .
Some times,  we as human may feel unwilling to take parts in things fhat used to be pf interest to us before,  this is why you see people stating reasons for such lost of interest to be,  limited time to concentrate and fully take part and give their best,  so instead taking the Art job and end up not meeting up to dead line or doing a half hazards job,  it better they just avoid enrolling in the contest.

Also money that you mentioned is another factor,  some of the old forks already made enough money and have shifted attention to bigger things,  and leaving the smaller deals for the upcoming so that they can also showcase they talent in that direction also.
2818  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Lotteries and possibility vs. probability on: September 18, 2023, 10:39:52 AM
Lottery is actually the most difficult game to win as long as gambling is concerned, that is, ones chances of winning the lottery is way lower than the person's chances of winning a huge amount of money through slot, casino or sport betting games, no matter how small the amount of money is, winning the lottery remains the hardest, and it's usually the most extreme lucky participants that win .

Note that in slot games, casino games and sports betting, one requires luck to win, but in lottery, one requires extreme luck win, I played a local lottery  game consistently for over 3 years and never won a dime, not to talk of the jackpot .
For me I can't categorize lottery into the class of game,  because as far as I know lottery has nothing to do with any form of technicalities that qualify it to be called a games since lottery most time is all about selecting a lucky winning lottery number or tickets,  this is why lottery is pourly based on luck to win.

Unlike like in sportbet,  where you can make games analysis and predict the possible winning team in the match,  so of course football betting is far more easier to win than lottery and that is why we have frequent sportbet winning compared to lotteries.

2820  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gamble Responsibly on: September 17, 2023, 11:27:15 PM

I like what you say, it is true about the weak mentality, it is not something that can be worth carrying always, especially when it is with a casino, a player should always control his emotions and not allow the emotions to be above his person Here in these cases what should be done is that when there is a lot of danger of doing things wrong, then stop and wait, not jump in, because I have played like that and when I get carried away by emotions and I mess up more and lose or so I won, I feel that I have been irresponsible , because I have risked more than I should have and that is not the idea, I mean doing things in a controlled manner and not risking too much.

Well for the fact that our mentality matters a lot in whatever we are doing we have to employ a stable mentality that can allow us to make proper decisions that will help us in some ways possible that will place us in a winning position,  this could also affect our winning rate at some points.

If a gambler allows his emotions to have control of his thoughts and mindset towards the game,  it still can hamper his chances of winning since he may be prone to making decisions at the wrong time,  since his emotions are in control.
Emotions influence the way one gambles. Not so fast: This doesn't reveal anything new. Nevertheless, I respect your attempt at knowledge. Really cute. What is the true tragedy, you ask? Losers, just like you mentioned, are everywhere. They're mindlessly scrolling through their phones, searching for porn, or just hanging about in search of junk food. They never mentally prepare themselves, and then, everyone knows that "then". They have an addiction to something. If you take gambling seriously, check your emotional baggage at the door and adopt a tough mentality. If not, just speak without doing anything.  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes
I every well agree with you any ways because when you are emotional stable you become accurate in staking your games and being following up as the match progresses because often times than none,  a lot of odds changes in-between the line that of the gambler emotional state of mind is not stable it won't be so ok to take the right position.

Quite clear that gamblers often need to take care of they emotional well being of others to stay ahead in making game calculations and decisions that will place them in a better position.
