Which could give them great public exposure and publicity.
On a broader view, if you read the last paragraph of the article where Joe McCallum from Sportsbet's added the benefit this hunt has for bitcoin which is exposure and more publicity, and i completely agree. A club like Southamptons association with crypto is huge and will be beneficial to image of bitcoin and crypto generally, may maybe change the minds of those who previously saw bitcoins as something scandalous. This is a win for the community.

We all speak of how this forum is one big family. A family to the best of my understanding supports one another through thick and thin. I'm concerned about our brothers and sisters in Ukraine who are members of this forum and have been displaced from homes for safety mainly and other reasons this period.

-What have members of this forum done individually and what can we do to assist our brothers & sisters from Ukraine?
2983  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: LOVELY FAMILY on: February 27, 2022, 07:21:09 AM
... because I want to be part of this lovely family and I also what that knowledge to be pass to me. so that I can also pass the same knowledge to others.
Knowledge can only be gotten by those who want to receive it, as untrue as it may sound, many have been in this forum for a long time and cannot still account for any knowledge gained or not any better from when they joined. Motive matters a lot, if what you heard about the forum is that it is a place where you can earn little stipends, your concern may not be much for knowledge or learning and you will not learn even if you pretend to be learning, but if your motive first is for learning, then knowledge will come.

Welcome here OP, match you motives and intentions here to learn and you will learn.

A poor first half performance. I've rarely seen them under pressure. In the first half, you didn't see much of De Bruyne and Bernardo. Bernardo challenged a lot more and made a good pass to Foden in the second half.
Manchester city's position on the league now is very delicate, and considering that, the players and coach will be generally under pressure to maintain their current standing they will be very careful in play, maybe too careful that they get dominated. I'm certain Pep observed that in the first half and urged his team to play better in the second. Their next game is against MUFC, chances are it may end in a draw. So it's good news that they were able to get all three points against Everton.
2985  Economy / Economics / Re: War requires three things on: February 27, 2022, 04:51:23 AM
My question to the forum is how does Putin intend to make the war of aggression against Ukraine be eventually profitable?
There is financial gain in war, but that may not necessarily be the profit Putin has planned to make with the war against Ukraine. His profit may be in land and acquisition of power. Money on the other hand is the profit some other countries stand to gain from war. During wars, there is a large investment in weaponry and countries who manufacture weaponry are huge beneficiaries of war.

against a team that was close to relegation at old trafford (home)but couldn't win? frankly I don't know what bad thing happened to all the Man Utd players, so they have had bad luck lately even though they have very good quality players.
Manchester United seem under a sort of curse, because knowing that your next EPL fixture is against Manchester city, how can you not ensure to claim all three points against a team like Watford. The teams biggest hope is finishing top four and qualifying for the champions League next season and as of right now, i see it a very slim chance. With the way Tottenham is playing, they are not out of the race for top four.
2988  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: You Must be Over 18 years on: February 26, 2022, 01:48:55 PM
I read every Internet gambling had requirements that must be over 18 years. if a child is under that age, how did the website owner know that child was enough to age?. Because I was explored every Internet gambling here that almost didn't require uploading an ID card. A child could be lying by clicking correct sign under the register box.
Unfortunately most of these online casinos and gambling sites are well aware that some of their users may not be up to 18 but they just put that requirement for putting sake and so that they can have the proof that they tried to prevent underage gambling should the authorities come after them. I don't think most casino's are really concerned about the age of their users so far their profit is steady.

Norwich will not be an easy ride for Southampton. In as much as they Norwich occupy the last spot on the EPL table, they are not that weak.
Southampton are leading by just a goal from Adams, thay have missed some prettying decent chances to extend their lead to two goals but have failed. Just a goal needed for Norwich to get an equaliser here and i'm certain this game will be celebrated for them. Expecting Broja to score for Southampton so they can secure this their slender win in this delicate minutes left.

Edit: Southampton just doubled their lead, a goal from Romeu. it's a close deal for them now, secured three points.

Gett your intents for being on the forum right and it might help you in the long run.
There are two categories of users here on this forum IMO, those who  were introduced to this forum as a means to earn stipends and those who stumbled upon this forum in search of knowledge without prior knowledge that there is a possibility of earning stipends. The first category of persons are focused on getting merits and you often find those not stopping, pausing, reading but just contributing to get merits. The unintentional category that focus more on knowledge are those who deliver much quality and you find out most often that they are the recipients of merits because they have not made earning merits their primary intent but providing value. Newbies should emulate the character of providing value first and not make merits their primary focus.

Now only Liverpool and Manchester City are contenders for title and Arsenal are getting bigger advantage in top 4. They are not only more closely to Chelsea but also have good opportunities to expand difference with Manchester United, Spurs on the Premier League table.

You re right that Arsenal were not in the list of top 4 contenders in season beginning but now, they are there.
The race for top four is very tense this season, Comparing March EPL fixtures for Manchester City - Everton, Manchester United, Crystal Palace, Brighton; Liverpool- West Ham, Brighton, Arsenal, Manchester United; Arsenal -Watford, Leicester, Liverpool & Aston Villa; MUFC from their next game against Watford then Manchester city, Tottenham & Liverpool; Can't say for sure now until the end of March how this league will turn out, because everyone's position is very delicate on the table.

Putin dun warn everybody make dem comot body. On how you go do gra gra you go collect.
And upon as you go collect, e nor mind say you go retaliate o, but you must collect for putting mouth. If to say na Trump dey, e for nor reach like this because Trump been nor too dey interested in the expansion of NATO eastward so Putin been nor dey reason NATO. But this one America wan use style do so, nor enter Putin body well... If it escalates e to war, every country will be affected as Russia get almost everything if not everything of wetin US get. My own na say make Buhari mind e business, we nor get nuclear weapon for Nigeria, wetin we get for here na only Nuclear family.

do you think ongoing sporting events will be postponed (damn.. I have a lot of betting plans on European leagues)
A lot of things will be affected if situations get more serious and out of control. Sporting events will be postponed and people will be made to exercise more caution. You wouldn't even want to gamble if situations get more serious as every penny you have will be super important to you and channelled to survival. Even gambling platforms and houses that circle money around (money from the many that lost to pay the few that win) will not have money for pay out as they will be experiencing a low turn out.
2994  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Where are the guts of NATO & the US? on: February 25, 2022, 05:19:30 AM
Let me ask you this, what would US do if Russia kept selling weapons to a US neighbor like Cuba and was planning on building their nuclear weapons? The answer is simple, the same thing Russia is doing today.
Same thing is happening with China and Taiwan and I don't see anybody complaining about the escalation with the weapons US keeps selling Taiwan until China invades and is blamed!!!
The United States sometimes is a bully country that bullies other countries with threats of the military and sanctions. They are not always right, and in this case i feel the US has not handled this issue well enough. You can't bully a country like Russia and get anything you want anytime, if Russia says they don't want NATO at their backyard, why stress it when you know that there is a long history between this two countries (Russia and Ukraine). US will react the same way if there was a perceived threat to their National Security. I don't want this getting escalated everything will be affected and this is not the time for it.
2995  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Nigeria (Naija) on: February 25, 2022, 04:43:31 AM
Guys we dey see wetin dey sup for the global space the war between Russia and Ukraine this mata na serious mata wey I surprise say e even affect the Crypto-currency sector.
Na serious matter oo brother, i feel say America wey be NATO front man for try handle this with better diplomacy or dem for allow another country handle Negotiation, dem nor suppose to allow this matter reach like this if to say d nor concentrate their efforts to dey threaten Putin. Dem dey use sense handle person wey get hot head normally. You dey go threaten country like Russia wey dun taste world power before you.

If we flip position say na America dey Russia shoes and Russia dey threaten Biden, how e for be?

Tuchel has done a great job in drilling those defenders, although Chelsea have definitely been known throughout the years to be decent in that department.
Bad news for Chelsea at the moment, Ziyech and kovacic are injured, means they won't feature in their cup final game against Klopps side. Chelsea is now leading by two goals, kante of course showing his worth yet again for Pulisic to deliver, they are comfortably ahead now and cam focus on ensuring that they keep a clean sheet.
2997  Other / Politics & Society / Re: BREAKING: Students Stage Statewide Mask Revolt In Washington on: February 21, 2022, 07:30:02 PM
The students said "we are done wearing masks" and they are tired of being kicked out of class for non compliance.
It can get really uncomfortable and even distracting to some wearing the mask in class. A distracted and uncomfortable student cannot learn well and schools are supposed to as much as possible make learning environment comfortable for their students, enforcing mask wearing in classrooms is against that. Some other practices can eliminate the need to subject students to wearing mask, practices like proper social distancing in the classrooms can work.

I didn't expect to find this in the "FAQ" session of the Unofficial list of (official) Bitcointalk.org rules, guidelines, FAQ because it is not a common and frequently asked question. However for the benefit of people who may be in this unique position and will need clarity;

-If i can speak, understand and write correctly in two or more languages, can i be a member of multiple local boards and engage in their various local discussions in their respective languages? Is there any rule against it?

2999  Economy / Gambling discussion / Gambling for fun alone? how true? on: February 21, 2022, 02:20:45 PM
Have you heard that some people gamble for fun and not necessarily to make money?

I find it hard to believe completely because who doesn't like to make some more money even if it is not needed.

If you knew the exact sum you were going to loose gambling, and you are the type that they say " gambles for fun", will you find it fun loosing that money still? will you return another day in awareness of how much you will loose and still want to loose for fun?

3000  Other / Meta / Re: Why I love Bitcointalk! on: February 21, 2022, 01:50:13 PM

Discussions: This forum is filled with all kind of species, I love it.

It remains the discussions for me that creates gainful engagement from members creating a feel of involvement with an important forum that supports what i love (bitcoins). I like the variety of opinions and perspectives. Also being here puts one ahead one step further into the future IMO as most forums you know are centered on the general/regular first, then may occasionally feature discussions on Bitcoin and crypto generally, but Bitcointalk on the other hand is dedicated to bitcoins and crypto first before any other discussion, this is good for me.
