3881  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin is ready for $40k on: June 08, 2023, 11:00:26 PM
I'd still think that there is another dump before it goes straight high. I believe that $40k is possible this year ( probably reachable in the 4th quarter) but as I said, it never goes straight, correction will still exist. That is why we still need to be patient, everything went so well and we're still able the market to turn bullish when halving comes. But for now, in a few months coming we probably seeing the price of Bitcoin still below $30k.
Well, might be right or wrong, nobody knows exactly but charts would tell something what will happen next.
I agree with you because as of now we are very far from the reality of a 40k Bitcoin price in this quarter of the year and at the same time, it may be hard to see any possible breakout in price and at that, the current resistant level will hold for a while and if Bitcoin price makes any big attempt to cross over then it going to limit around $30,000 for a while and possibly stop at 31k-32k till the end of this quarter.
But since Bitcoin is full of unpredictability, there. Is nothing thpossible in that process and we may end up seeing that price even as the chances are slim.

Is this better on Oculus VR?
Did you mean better than? I will say so, but also very expensive. Apple Vision Pro cost $3500 which is more than expensive. But it is the best that I have seen. According to the review I have watched before it is eyes sensitive. If you look at apps on the vision pro, the app will detect that as it increases in size, and if you want to click on the app, only what you need to do is to touch your thumb with your fore finger and it will click. Apps and everything is controlled by your eyes and your fingers. It would be of nice experience, but the battery is not strong and it is too expensive. Some VR devices are requires you to connect to a PC or console though, while Oculus VR like Quest or Meta Quest 2 last 2 to 3 hours after fully charged.
This is insane I mean the price, I don't know why some people still go for that over priced products Apple has lost its place in the market and we have better products that can compete with Apple at a cheaper rate and some of them are more durable compared to Apple products that lack battery.

We already have something like this produced by Samsung and can be used on Android phones that meet its standard, unlike this one that is limited to only Apple devices.

But even if you look at Arsenal like that at the moment, they are actually one of the clubs that are said to be wasteful and are in 4th place this season.
They don't bring in really bad players, but you could say it's average, it's just that the price they set isn't cheap either.
But indeed some of them are young players who have great potential and indeed it is still very feasible.
I don't know where you got the information from that Asernal is standing at fourth position which is not true and at the same time Asernal present position is still second and I don't think anything is going to change that before the end of the season.

Arsenal has done well this season and right from the start of the season, Asernal has played the best of football up until they lost a few games that let them slide down to the present position, even though I am sure that Asernal will make it back to the top of the league but I am sure that Asernal will not go below third position.

Maybe a bit strange to 100% support Manchester City without considering Inter's chances.
Everyone now knows that Manchester City is the strongest team in Europe compared to Inter, but I think Inter can provide something that should not be underestimated by their opponents. Manchester City have a habit of controlling play, but sometimes they find it difficult to find space if the opposing team has a good defence.

I remember how Brighton managed to force Manchester City to a 1-1 draw in the last few Premier League matches, so Inter must be able to find a solution on how best to stop Manchester City. But of course, I doubt Inter can stop Manchester City because they have been doing very well this season. All the players that Manchester City have are dangerous, so that is the biggest obstacle for Inter.
After watching how Real Madrid were humiliated by Manchester City in the semi finals second leg, most football lovers have been quick to write off Inter Milan but this is football and anything is possible, Manchester City have more winning probability against Inter Milan but I strongly believe that Inter Milan will not sit back like Real Madrid and watch Manchester City dominate the game throughout.
Inter Milan vs Manchester City will be a hard nut to crack for Manchester City and just as you guys have widely speculated it may be very hard for Manchester City to penetrate Inter Milan's midfield since the club have a very strong defensive line that will properly render most Manchester city attempt to be unless and fruitless and that will make the game very hard for man city and it going to take high luck to give Manchester City the final winning in the match.
3885  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Litecoin's comeback on: June 08, 2023, 09:37:50 PM
Well done with expecting litecoin to outperform Bitcoin, but as far as I know it is a waste of time to speculate how best Litecoin can outperform Bitcoin to replace Bitcoin and that will never happen.

But sound great to see that Litecoin is making a recovery,  and good luck to those who bought when the price crashed along with other altcoins as mentioned by ops, but for me I will do more Bitcoin and less altcoin in this period, just to minimize my risk.
3886  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What if social media apps start launching their own cryptocurrency? on: June 08, 2023, 09:33:04 PM
We used to hear rumours of Facebook developing their own coin called meta in the early days of their name change, but that idea died off as natural courses have melt a heavy blow on the idea and that could have been influenced by the crash of altcoins in the last couple of months and years back and the social media already know that there is no future for them in the cryptocurrency market and at that, the re channelled the energy into something else.
3887  Economy / Gambling / Re: Which are best stake alternatives on: June 08, 2023, 09:28:06 PM
We have a hand full of them around that can serve as the best alternatives to stake.com, most of the casinos that we have around the forum are high standard and all can serve as an alternative to each other and even though I am one of the stake promoters but my luck has been high on the few bet I placed on stake so I don't feel the need to look for other casinos since the stake is already giving me the best services as regards to my casino/gambling needs.
3888  Economy / Gambling / Re: Gambling is a choice. on: June 08, 2023, 09:22:07 PM
sometimes people are so stressed that they start gambling
Many starts it at an early age and become professional gammblor sooner



Many people also start gambling at a young age and become chronic gambling addicts, committing so many ill crimes just to gamble. There is no guarantee that when one starts gambling at a very young age they will become professional gamblers, and I don't think anyone could be a professional gambler; the person can just be good.
Is there ant specific age for gambling aside from the below 18 year warning that we are all used to and we see young individual getting hucked to gambling so I don't think age has a lot to do with gambling habits and how we control them, there is no doubt that gambling has offered an additional source of income but then one can not rely on that or making excuses with that to get addicted to gambling.

Hey guys!

Thanks for the comments.

I am afraid you've misunderstood me:)

My project isn't a crash game or crash website. It is the project ABOUT crash games and crash sites. And by-products, I meant products that could be useful for players and assist in their gambling sessions. We already working on a couple but I don't want to feature them too early and would like to hear is there anything that gamers need related to crash games.
Ok now I get your point, and the service you choose to offer to aid crash players winning their games in the form of games indicator and stimulators bots,  well that is also something that may not give accurate results at all times and can also lead to loses,

Unless I don't still get it and you want to explain something further about what you mean by products
3890  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: El Salvador has become the first country to make #Bitcoin legal tender! 🇸🇻 on: June 08, 2023, 08:48:15 PM
the problem with el salvador in 2021. is when they legalised bitcoin.. they consulted with an idiot who was not promoting bitcoin but promoting another network pretending it was bitcoin..
yep the owner of "strike" was promoting that el salvador should not use bitcoin network but instead his software gateway into LN.
and so el salvador did trial this, to use LN as the payment routing. promising citizens bitcoin but giving them LN msats..
within 3 months el salvador experienced the flaws of LN in regards to liquidity issues of payment amount limits(it didnt 100% process payments successes above $100).. also when trying to close channels to get thier "free $30" of value. they hit the other LN problem of the channel owners not wanting to close the channels of the customers.

thus el salvadorians gave up using the chivo wallet that was using LN as the payment rail..

el salavador by january 2022 swapped out the LN function and instead relied on a CEX as a bank manager of custodian value. but it was too late the citizens already had a bad experience and so the damage was done

all because el salvador was told LN was Bitcoin. even though the 2 networks are very very different
I have to agree with you in some part that the El Salvadorian's experience with the Chivo wallet was worse than the worst since the $30 airdrop from the government never actually get fully to the citizens due to network congestion and unavailability during that period and beyond, and even as the time goes on the President discovered that he had a bad shot at the Chivo wallet and quickly suit for better alternative and solution instead of adopting bitcoin network in full but then this is government and there control tendency.

Nothing has failed in the El Salvador Bitcoin experiments and the only thing that has failed is the chivo wallet which make led to huge losses on the side of the government since the airdrop process was manipulated giving citizens a bitter test of the Bitcoin experience by choosing the wrong network.

Welcome and hope you get the best possible suggestion as to how to go about your crash games development but then also one very important thing I will like to point out is that no one will be able to give you any feedback since your project is still in beta state and not live yet.

So I will like to advise you to have a 100% developed and launched casino before you come here to seek feedback or suggestions so that members can have a real test of your games and thereafter offer their feedback or make suggestions.

@EarnOnVictor
@Hyphen(-)
@CryptoHeadlineNews
I greet una special, although I just want to clear some air here, just like I mentioned in the thread this is just a rumour but there is a high possibility of this happening since the president have constantly mentioned that there will be no multiple exchange rate in the nigeria stock market and also a unified exchange rate will never leave naira at it current state and price there will definitely be adjustment in the value of the naira against the dollars since the government is paying high subsidies to keep naira at it current official price.

We in the cryptocurrency industry already know the differences and we are constantly in contact with the price USTD vs Naira since either ways we have to exchange your bitcoin or other coins into naira using the united state dollars as the exchange rate determination and since we already know how much we sell at the black market which is some where as high as ₦750+.
3893  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Taliban are fighting with Iran on: June 08, 2023, 08:11:49 PM
Both of them claim "god is on their side", but the Taliban seem to have US weaponry also.

Quote
The Taliban clashed with Iranian border guards over the weekend, and it used American equipment to do it. The fight took place in the Nimroz province of Afghanistan, on its south western border with Iran. At least three people died, and others were wounded in a dispute about water rights in the region.

https://www.vice.com/en/article/epvvgk/the-taliban-is-fighting-iran-with-american-weapons

Officially this is about water rights, unofficially some sources say that it is a coincidence that the US left some much equipment in there when they retired in a hurry from Afghanistan. That equipment is now being used against Iran. Do you believe in coincidences of this kind? Apparently they have a mixture of super-old soviet era captured stuff and more or less recent light armour from US.

Once there's a communal dispute like this, you can't blame anyone because alot of things will be emerging new, you can't get the real idea or information of what's going on because everyone will want to prove their rights, there's a very good tendencies that the US left many of their war equipments when the Taliban took over the government in Afghanistan, the issue of water and boarder boundaries may be the major cause to the fight due to ownership claims which might have led to serious arguments.
We are in gun-free world and most of the guns and weapons are unlicensed so there will on be speculation about their origin or owners this is the situation we found ourselves and we have to cope with that, the Taliban have not put up any formidable factory to manufacture their own weapons, although there may be some locally made weapons being used by the Taliban, most of the sophisticated weapons may be the leftover of US since there we're under US control for a long period until the Taliban took over the government.
3894  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Is tax relief ever a solution to the effect of the fuel subsidy removal? on: June 08, 2023, 07:58:07 PM
Tax relief is not an option because it won't reflect on every sector of the economy since we operate a consumer-based economy, what will have more impact on the economy is the increase in the minimum wage that way the purchasing power of the workers will be increase and microeconomic business will increase in their sales and development and that will inject more money into the economy and also meeting up with today's economic realities and global standard but 200,000 naira minimum is quiet out of reach by now but something close to that will be the priority target for the NLC and the government to settle on as a common ground.

On the issue of tax relief, it won't reflect the true realities on the ground and also will not allow for tax inclusion take for example if value-added tax is removed, what becomes the only tax someone that is earning from Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies will pay, after all there is no income tax on crypto income only the VATs that are paid on purchase goods that is the only deduction to government from someone that earns from untaxed sector like cryptocurrency and other unregulated incomes.
3895  Economy / Gambling / Re: Question about casino, sports bet on: June 08, 2023, 07:46:34 PM
There are almost all casinos which has the android and iOS applications. I’m not sure why you need them despite the fact that it’s handy and you can play right from your phone. However, that’s not a big deal these days. Almost every website irrespective of its niche has mobile view or adaptive interface. This gives you similar feel as if you are playing on the android or ios app.

However, I would suggest if you wanna play casinos then it’s better be on the full screen over your laptop or desktop. Playing slots on phone is like a joke for me. The gambling site experience is far better over big screens mate.
From the ops comment I think he is a newbie that have just got into gambling and is looking to something that he can quickly access as an app, otherwise this will amount to a waste of time because it looks like ops are never going to get a good experience from apps since most apps don't function accurately at all time and sometimes there need regular updates.

A good number of gambling platforms have their apps but in some cases, those casinos that care more about their freedom and less spending will not develop an app.
3896  Economy / Gambling / Re: Enough to consider a casino scam? on: June 08, 2023, 07:30:09 PM
What's the reason why you didn't pass the KYC verification? Are you sure you are using original documents?

If you have already used a fake documents, you have yourself to blame. Casinos are always looking for a way to grab players fund and if you give them a reason to, you'll never get your money back.

If we don't comply to their KYC procedures they won't allow us on anything, what will pain most ia that this will be coming the very moment you will needed their attention the most to help you perform some functions, we easily derive on conclusion that wome casinos are scam because we are yet to provide their necessary KYC informations, as for those that like presenting fake documents, it will do nothing good for them than making the whole process get tougher.
Yeah, it is actually better to choose to play on a non-kyc casino (as I see we do have a few of them around already) than to decide to play on a kyc enabled casino and submit a fake document when asked to submit document for account verification, like the first comment said, casinos are always looking for who to make the scape goat, if any gambler decides to offer him or herself to be used as a scape goat, then such person have no right to complain what so ever..

Like I said earlier and I rephrase again, better use a casino where kyc is non existent, then cheat on a kyc enabled casino, you will only end up losing all your money including your deposit if caught.
Since we started the discussion on the topic of the advantages of playing in non-KYC casinos, I picked interest in that and I went on a personal search for the best possible non-kyc casinos to my amazement I find out that most of the non-kyc casinos also have flexible terms and conditions of service and also their have lower wagering requirements for bonuses and deposits.

While the Kyc casinos set limits to the amount you can withdraw without Kyc and how much you can also deposits at a go, all these are the limitation of Kyc casinos and the riskiest of them all is that you also risk your data.
3897  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season on: June 08, 2023, 07:17:11 PM


That's true, but there are still many who believe Inter might be able to put up a tough fight for Manchester City. Meanwhile, the reality is that Manchester City really have a very big chance to win and also, if the theory is like that then I'm sure Inter won't be able to score a goal. Maybe, Manchester City's defense is not completely strong, but if Manchester City can excel in ball possession then of course, Inter will find it difficult to develop their playing style in the match later.
Inter Milan have really worked well to reach their present stage in thos season because not many expected them to get this far and as a matter of fact there chances of winning Manchester city in this season may look slim but the possibilities are there and anything can happen that will put inter Milan in a better position that will guarantee them a slide ending in this season.

And even if iinter Milan end up losing to Manchester City it will become a big record for the club to have reached this far and also use it as a basis for their preparation for the next useason.

Yes you are right that mate Self control is the header of all aspects because without a self control then you don't have any limitations of yourself, and that's a big mistake that a man or woman made. Self control is for our safety only so beyond that line there are many temptation want to break you,  so you need to double your security by t self control and limitations. And the best thing is if we are new to gambling then we need to gamble what we afford to lose.
Take for example, when you work for someone else or the government, every workforce day is a happy day but when you are. Self-employed or into business, work free day is a losing day since you have to make the money you spend and likewise gambling self-control,  once you know your life is at stake. And there is a need to apply some self-exclusion to avoid possible issues it will be necessary to avoid and apply a brake to whatever we do online and gambling is one of those things we must apply self-control on.
3899  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: El Salvador has become the first country to make #Bitcoin legal tender! 🇸🇻 on: June 08, 2023, 06:19:49 AM
Had you considered using bitcoin in your discussion of this topic or not.. or do you really believe that your use of the term crypto provides any kind of a less than vague depiction of what is happening and being attempted in El Salvador in regards to bitcoin and/or its attempts at tech-friendliness?

The word crypto is a vague word that can be misused by many shitcoin promoters. They hid under the word crypto to promote their scam projects while telling unsuspecting clients that their coin and bitcoin are in the same category. So many people in my country assume that there are no differences between Bitcoin and other coins because they have been deceived that all of them are the same. This is why I always support it when people argue that the name of the coins should be mentioned because hiding under the term crypto can be abused and misused.
There is a big difference between Bitcoin and shitcoin and shouldn't be used interchangeably and both terms should be clearly differentiated, but many members have misunderstood this fact and ended up. Making that mistakes each time their make comments, and also shutcoinairs have constantly and consciously used the term crypto to mean and promote the coins in the same category as bitcoin which is something we constantly discredit in our various discussions as related to Bitcoin or the entire cryptocurrency.

But when it comes to El Salvador's Bitcoin adoption, the discussion there is no way we gonna accept the term crypto to be used in our discussions since El Salvador was specific in their approach to the adoption of Bitcoin and no other coin so shitcoinair can gain any place in this discussion and we must consciously and our words while having this discussion.

Cryptocurency and in bitcoin in particular has help this nation and also many nation or should I say it citizens because the government still considered this technology a treat to their dominance and control over the funds of the masses. Imagine a country like el Salvador where bitcoin is legal and used as a legal tender, the citizens there will be at rest to any sort of financial drama from the government and their fiat currency depreciation problems. People would save money now and have a rest of mind knowing fully well their funds are safe from constant deduction of fees and levees from the government and their fiat system.
Have you ever wondered why Bitcoin is referred to as a saviour?
The answer is not far fetch from the realities on ground and how cryptocurrency activities have help to elevate the living standards of the Niferia youths, Nd it has become evident that youth are the front runners when it comes to digital currency involvement,  it trade and usage, and there is no gain saying that Nigeria is highest among Africa countries is the high volume of bitcoin or cryptocurrencies trading and this statistic have been announcing multiple time and at each time Nigeria always top the chart of the highest cryptocurrency users in Africa, despite being a country where its central bank has bad anti bitcoin laws.
