I have come to full appreciate the innovation of Bitcoin and Blockchain that has opened the door to decentralization. A peer-2-peer network system where everyone is protecting their interest through a consensus mechanism. If it must work we all must make it work kind of mindset. A system where everyone needs each other to keep the vision growing.
Unfortunately this p2p network is not void of people who have been scammed and the bitcoins never returned. Trust is not a commodity in the market these days, it has to be earned and to be earned, there has to be a proven track record. Don't just trust the p2p network simply because you believe in satoshi and his vision for a safe transaction space with everybody's interest represented, even among the biblical selected disciples of Christ there was still a judas", don't easily trust.

By leaving a little treasure to our children, do we need to provide crypto investment education to our children? is it necessary?

As a parent I want to give my best.

They say the best gift a parent can give to a child is education, to me at the moment, i'd be specific and say particularly crypto education. Because crypto can still be considered to be in the very early developmental stages, any child who is properly intimated with it on time has been put at an advantage over the mass of population his/her age that know nothing about it. It will be more profitable IMO as a father to educate kids on crypto investment rather than gambling. So as a parent in this 21st century, part of doing your best includes crypto education for your kids.

Arsenal continue to play good games and continue to score points in this way.
I am always excited when arsenal starts an unbeaten run because player's can get really motivated and sustain the win for as long as possible. We have won five games so far and we have just twelve more games and we may even finish the EPL this season at a position better than fourth to the shock and surprise of all. I hope Xhaka and Partey can maintain form and their connection in midfield and not get injured, they both are crucial to our team's success.

Arsenal have a lot of motivation now, the main thing is that they don't lose to Leicester... If they win, they have a chance to compete with Chelsea for third place!
Good thing arsenal is winning thanks to Partey for that well controlled header, he is just so good as well as Odegaard, Saka is terrorising the defence and i definitely love to see that. Leicester could have equalised by now but thanks to Ben Whites clean tackle in the penalty box, we are still leading. Ramsdale has made some decent saves in this game as well. There are so many decent players in this arsenal side, i wonder why we are not topping the league.

result of some games I'm surprised:

Chelsea FC 0 - 0 Newcastle United FC

Newcastle United has improved a lot, today they are managing to contain chelsea, something that was very difficult to do if it was the newcastle of months ago, the question here is:

Will Chelsea be able to win?

Newcastle have been robbed with a bad refereeing decision, that tackle from Chalobah in the penalty box was a clear penalty. Rudiger has been very terrible, Lukaku useless in the game. Of all the EPL fixtures today, Chelsea game is the only one that has remained goalless, a very boring game, hoping arsenal's game doesn't turn out goaless, because we need the points to secure our top four spot.


Edit - Last minute goal from Havertz to save Chelsea.

Gambling in the Metaverse is too new and definitely has bugs and glitches. I would not risk putting any money into the gambling aspect of it right now.
The metaverse is not a fully developed environment and there are still many unstable aspects of it that i would not want to try and will not advice others to try at this developmental stages. Gambling in it is one of them, although the idea of being able to gamble with different people in the world is enticing, i will still stick to the traditional gambling. I feel gambling in the Metaverse also has the ability to make users gamble more and spend longer time in gambling casinos sited in the metaverse.

Tension is rising everywhere in the globe. We are really at the doorstep of the greatest war in human history?
I certainly hope not, widespread unrest and war will disrupt all activities of every individual in the world, even for us here forum members, our activities on this forum will be affected as many members will be scampering for safety and will barely have the time to contribute effectively here just as some of our Ukrainian brothers and sisters are currently experiencing. World War 3 is not something we wish for, we want peace, not war.

Is it just me or people are out of liquidity ( money ) ?
It may just be you friend, no matter how harsh economic situations become, know that it is in favour of some people who engineered the situation or have already set themselves at positions of opportunity. In my country, bars and clubs are still filled up on weekends, people are still erecting/buying structures and cars etc which is a clear indication that there is still liquidity to a large extent. You have to decide where you want to belong, with the people who believe that everyone is out of liquidity because of their personal situation, or those who still believe that there is liquidity and are working to get themselves to it, you have to choose, what you believe matters.

I got a message on WhatsApp yesterday from one of these loan apps. That X chose me as his emergency contact for a loan, that I should contact X to repay his loan or else they will publish our names and give me bad credit history nationally and internationally. I replied I don’t know this person and blocked the number.  I have never and will never use the services of these loans apps. They demand access to your contacts, messages, personal information and reserve the right to use this information however they deem fit should you default payment.
BTW I don’t even know this person who they claim used my number as emergency contact, and the loan company didn’t call me to confirm if I know this person.
The MOD of some of these loan companies dey very unacceptable. I dey wonder if na so loan application and company dey operate abroad wey dem go dey call numbers for person contact list regardless of the relationship wey the people get just to tell them say Mr or Mrs X wey dey happen to know dey owe money , or if it is just peculiar to us. Make person dey careful with loan applications and company o, some na real scam and fake to just steal your details.

How is the fuel situation in your area?

The club was in existence and running before Roman bought and they obviously got these level of successes but since this is a football club and should have the liberty to keep running until a new owner comes not telling the club not sell tickets, Jerseys and freezing their bank account. That is totally unfair.
I completely agree, very few persons will see things from this perspective but have quickly and hastily come to agreement that whatever sanctions leveled against any russian owned investment is fair. But really how has these sanctions that have affected a club loved by people from different origin and not just russia be of benefit? IMO, it is ridiculous. A sanction against the Russian team is understandable, but not an English team owned temporarily by a Russian.

Maguire has made the game 2-2, Tottenham is now level, at this point it's either a Ronaldo scores a hat trick or the game goes in favour of my prediction, that is spurs winning.
Phenomenal indeed, the greatest of all time...just as i predicted Ronaldo has scored a hattrick and made it three goals for Manchester United, plus increased his tally as the highest goal scorer. It is very unfortunate that Manchester United may not still finish as top four this season. Maguire should not be spared still, he is a great flop for the team and he should be sold in the transfer window. It is a big problem when you headline each game as a flop.
2933  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: March 12, 2022, 07:06:52 PM
Liverpool and Manchester city are the only current contender for the PL title this season. Liverpool are just few points away behind Manchester city. But, Manchester city would do anything within their capacity to maintain been at the top of the Premier League table. However, Liverpool reduced their points gap to 3 after winning against Brighton today. I think Jurgen Klopp is quite confident that his team will lift the PL title, but that is only if City drops points.
It's a very delicate standing on the top of the table, Liverpool still have a great chance to win if Manchester flops and slacks. In terms of goal difference, Liverpool got more goals than Manchester city and if Liverpool squares up points with them, they will be on top.

Maguire has made the game 2-2, Tottenham is now level, at this point it's either a Ronaldo scores a hat trick or the game goes in favour of my prediction, that is spurs winning.

Cristiano Ronaldo spectacular goal proved that he is a true goalscorer. It was only a few minutes later when the referee did not approve a penalty for Ronaldo's kick hitting Erick Dier's hand.
While Manchester United lead 1-0. The tempo of the game was getting more and more interesting as Tottenham continued to try to return the goal with various efforts from Son and H. Kane.
Nothing remaining for Ronaldo to proof, it has been established since that he is a true top goal scorer, now FIFA's highest goal scorer. I don't think the goal proves any thing different, he is phenomenal. Even though Manchester United is leading at the moment, i still see Tottenham winning this game, the tempo is so high, 1- 0 lead has quickly turned to 2-1, definitely a delicate game to predict.

With the pros and cons of crypto regulation, will you go for the government to totally be friendly with cryptocurrencies so that it will later be regulated or you are fine with this recent implicit ban?
for everything, there always will be pros and cons, and IMO, the Nigerian government acted from a stand point of ignorance and wickedness...the fact that crypto transactions are still ongoing in the country is unexpected to them, as mostly the implicit ban was meant to suffocate crypto activities. Let us continue doing things undercover like this until a better government comes in with fresh minds, because if they decide to get monetary benefits from crypto transactions in the country, the funds accumulated has a high probability of being embezzled, so e nor get use for now.

2938  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Blame Game in gambling on: March 10, 2022, 10:23:54 PM
I would consider it a negligence on parents behalf as it was their first duty to keep an eye on their children.
You know some kids are really good at hiding their habits, they know their parents see them as innocent and play pretence to still be innocent even when they are now far from it. So we can't completely push blame the way of the parents. They failed in their role to be observant and keep close tabs on their child, but many others as well including the individual that took his life deserve equal portions of the the blame.

If your children sees you as a gambler, possibility is, they would also be gamblers in the future, so teach them not to be at the young age...

You can't be a gambler and just be teaching your child not to gamble. How is the child suppose to take you seriously if you don't give them critical reasons why it may not be safe for them. Children need reasons these days as they are far too exposed to just tell them not to gamble and they follow you blindly like before. l hope you understand.

Just like an anchor on the sea bed, Norwich is now settled on the bottom of the EPL table, relegation is sure for them now just like Watford. One more club for relegation and Everton, Burnley and leeds are looking like the candidates, even not too safe for Brentford. Games this weekend i think will determine who goes relegated are the Brentford vs Burnley,  Leeds vs Norwich, Southampton vs Watford. Everton is not a team i'll like to see relegated, so hopefully they should win their game against the Wolves.
2940  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: March 10, 2022, 08:47:54 PM
Chelsea had a incredible performance in the first half. Despite not giving the opposition chance for a possible goal. Chelsea are expecting more goals in the second half of the game, I'm expecting like a 4-0 win for Chelsea. Norwich don't have what it takes to beat Chelsea or do a come-back in the second half.
The news today has been of the sanctions against Roman Abramovich, should i say former Chelsea owner? You can normally expect such news and challenges to affect members of the club and team, but we are seeing a Chelsea team that looks unaffected. We have to give special credits to the entire Chelsea team, the coach and players for handling this news very well and not Letting it get to them. More goals definitely in this second 45mins.
