Arsenal might be having a bad form at the moment but I feel like this season somehow feels like they have a better chance than last season.
This Arsenal team is stronger than they were last season, most especially because of the addition of Declan Rice to the team, the Englishman is such an intelligent midfielder and he has improved the team. Having said that, Arsenal may be stronger than they were last season, but i think the title race would be more difficult this season, Arsenal prolly had a better chance of winning it last season when it was in their hands, but they let City right back into the race. This season there are more teams in and around the top of the table, we might have a 3 or 4 horse race this season and thus the title might be harder to achieve for Arsenal.

It was a common friend that I had with other Facebook friends that told me about the site after we had chatted for a bit. He introduced me to the site and told me how to setup a Cypto.com account, DeFi wallet and how to go this site inside the DeFi wallet to trade. He gave me step by step instructions.
This person basically directed you to the fake crypto.com website so that you would get scammed, scammers are everywhere on the internet and you should not chat with random people about stuffs like this, always DYOR and ask questions in crypto forums when you are not sure about something.
It seemed there was never an issue until he transferred funds from his account into mine and they said it flagged as money laundering and needed to verify by entering more funds so this is when it felt like something was up. I did research online but stuff was coming up about Crypto.com and all seemed fine.
If i understood you correctly, you haven't actually lost any money, and this friend (scammer) of yours sent you some money, in the hope that you fall for the bait and send the scammers some of your money in order to get what your "friend" sent. Having said that, what was your "friend" sending your money for? Did you send them anything in exchange for the payment? This will help other people learn from what exactly happened.

Though e go dey good if we go fit do make na only we we dey understand ourselves by using only the pidgin.
This reason no too dey important, e good make person understand say here na public forum, even those local boards wey no dey use English communicate, you go fit use translator take understand any of their posts wey you wan read. So person no suppose make post on a public forum with the thought say person/people no go find way take understand wetin dem talk, even if such people no understand that language. Na for PM na im dem dey talk some private/personal matter wey you no wan bring come out.

The two languages wey we dey use dey okay, mind you that na English be our official language for Naija, so imo if we have to choose one out of the two languages, na English go make sense pass. Having said that, we don settle this matter a long time ago, i dey communicate with both English and Pidgin for this local board, and i never get any problem with that, so make we leave this matter of language of use for this local board and concentrate on other better things.

Salah probably will not play a few matches due to the AFCON. If Liverpool starts to lose points now then it would be a good chance for them to get the top spot. Manchester City are also chasing now so things are getting very exciting.
Mo Salah won't miss too many games, there are only a few EPL games to be played in January, i think only 2 EPL games would  be played this month, so Liverpool should be able to cope before Mo Salah returns from the AFCON. This is an opportunity for other attacking players to step up, the likes of Jota, Nunez and Gakpo, they have to start getting important goals, and if they do so, Salah won't be missed too much.

Having said that, Aston Villa do not have any chance of winning the league, though they have a chance of making it to Europe (CL or Europa League) next season. It is going to be a three horse race for the EPL title this season between Liverpool, Arsenal and City.

Real Madrid gave Ancelotti a new contract until 2026. This means that Real Madrid still really needs Ancelotti's manpower. This means that the speculation regarding Ancelotti and Brazil is over.
I actually thought this was going to be Carlo Ancelotti's last season in charge of Real Madrid, but it isn't going to be as Carlo has extended his contract at Real Madrid until 2026, i'm pretty sure this news came as a surprise to quite a lot of football fans as we expected Ancelotti to join the Brazillian national team after this season.

Having said that, it is good for Real Madrid that they can continue building with the manager they've had for sometime now, Carlo knows how to get results and there's no doubt that Madrid would enjoy more success with him still in charge.

That was a total surprise for me. Since the TX had more fees than 24 sats/byte, I can't think of any possible reason for excluding it.
I think that would mean they are not including the backlog of transactions they have based on the higher fee rate that the user used, since they all pass their requirement; maybe there's another mechanism to it or they are just picking randomly; i am not sure which it is. Anyway, since the message you got is "Accelerating this transaction", they'll prolly definitely get to yours sooner or later.

We are leading the league table. Villa and Arsenal are no threat. City is concern but 5 points behind. Hope we don't lose motivation.
5 points behind, but with a game in hand. Right now Liverpool are the biggest threat to City's quest for a record 4th EPL title in a row, but the thing is, City become unstoppable just at the right time, and that time is approaching; this is why they have won so many EPL titles in recent years. Liverpool might be strong from now until the end of the season, but they can only be champions if City don't go on their long winning runs, City are better than everyone else in a title run-in and we're going to see it play out this season for the umpteenth time.

Mohamed Salah is one of the players who can make the most goals and assists. It means Mohamed Salah is a player with very good statistics for a forward.
Of course Mo Salah is one of the best attacking players in the world, so it is always expected that he is going to score a good number of goals every season. Having said that, if Erling Haaland recovers from his injury in time and doesn't get injured again this season, i think he will be the highest goal scorer come the end of this EPL season, just as he did last season, Mo Salah would prolly get more assists than Haaland, but i think the Norwegian will score more goals than the Egyptian.

That user isn't banned, you can check in: https://bpip.org/Profile?id=2627711 if you are not sure.
Even though BPIP not showed he's get banned, but I trust the moderator in this case since he have a button to ban someone.
The user Symmetrick has been banned, so haters of this user can breathe a sigh of relief. So discussion of this issue has lost its relevance.
I completely missed the topic this was posted in, but i have read it and now i understand why it doesn't show up in BPIP. The user wasn't manually banned by a moderator and that account is only locked (and not banned), because that user used the "reset password via secret question" which got the account locked (most likely done on purpose).

A little correction, the date of xxx website seizure is 15 March 2022, I believe you wanted to write March 15, 2023.
Lol, you can write the name of mixers and even discuss about them, so you don't have to filter the names of mixers the way you just did. What will get you banned is if you direct people to mixers (through links) or if you continue to advertise mixers.

To OP: the compilation is great, personally i didn't miss any of these events in real time actually, so i remember all of them, but it is good to have these events in one topic for users who missed a few of them or cannot remember about it, great effort mate.

Most people who first learned about bitcoin and expressed interest in it were guided by a mentor. They tend to follow the mentor's instructions rather than conducting their own research.
How did you come up with this, and how sure are you that what you said is accurate. So many people find out about Bitcoin online, without the help of anyone; they hear about the "internet money" that is Bitcoin and they become interested.
you could have also make few list of the best crypto wallets for storing assets, like Electrum and Trust wallet, the best type of crypto wallets are always open source and also non-custodial.
Trust wallet is not on the list of "best" wallets to use, it is non-custodial, but it is closed source, and trust wallet users complain quite a lot about bugs affecting their wallet.
Examples of good crypto wallet aka Non-custodial are..

Electrum, Unstoppable, Wasabi, Ledger and Trezor, etc.
I'd remove ledger from that list. Mind you that not all non-custodial wallets are good and advisable to use.

now he get banned.
That user isn't banned, you can check in: https://bpip.org/Profile?id=2627711 if you are not sure. I guess you think that user is banned because they still have a mixer signature and avatar on, but that's not how the mixer ban works. Mixer signatures have been wordfiltered already and if the user doesn't remove it, they'd be blanked in a few days or so. A user would only be banned if they continue advertising mixer signatures and avatars, i.e. by wearing a new mixer signature or avatar.

Hopefully after the break the performance will be better because if it continues like this then their performance at the end of last season could be repeated by continuing to get a series of unexpected defeats.
I know that after the last two defeats and with how many points Arsenal have taken in their last five games, Arsenal fans have their mind on what happened to them last season, thinking it is happening all over again. The thing is, it is quite different, last season they started losing games towards the end of the season, it is just mid season this time around, so they prolly have the time to fix things and get their title charge back on track. Having said that, i feel sorry for Arsenal and Liverpool that there is a team like City that are just unstoppable when we get to the title run-in, it is going to be City's title again this season, even though so many people are tired of seeing the same winner year after year.
475  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Just think of holding and not the high transaction fees. on: December 31, 2023, 07:36:17 PM
And this high transaction fees have been almost the topic of the past few weeks or months and a lot of Bitcoin sources are not saying anything (because I have not come across any post that's talking about the reduce of transaction fees).
No be person dey set Bitcoin fee rate, so nobody fit just increase or reduce am, once the mempool dey clogged, na so transaction fee rate go increase and vise versa, so no be like say na one individual or group of people dey control Bitcoin fee rate. I know say na ordinal transactions dey cause this problem, but wetin developers go do about am, dem no go want censor ordinal transactions, as e no go make sense because Bitcoin no be network wey dey support censorship. We go gats live with this thing until people wey dey make these ordinal transaction no get any incentive to do am again.

Back to back defeats for Arsenal (against West Ham and now Fulham), and that leaves them in 4th position as the year comes to an end, Arsenal are in a pretty sticky patch right now and they are winless in their last three EPL games, i know some people people might cry that it is a crisis, but i don't think it is, Arsenal are just 2 points off the summit, so for now nothing has changed as regards their title charge. The problem Arsenal has is that City are unstoppable when we get to the title run-in, City can go on long winning runs, and this is why i think both Liverpool and Arsenal won't win the title, but City will.
477  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: ViaBTC offers no more free TX acceleration? on: December 31, 2023, 01:13:33 PM
It works again. Just got a transaction in. 5 minutes after the hour and there are still 60 spots left or so.
Maybe those using bots are enjoying the holidays. Grin It is good that people can use viabtc free accelerator again (at least for now), i don't know how long this "break" will last, and it is possible that in the next few hours they'll be back again and all the spots will be filled so quickly.
Either that or the admin somehow banned these Ordinal transactions from spamming their TX accelerator.
I don't think viabtc will ban anybody from using their transaction accelerator, even if they are ordinal spammers, they might change the captcha pattern to make it difficult for bots, but apparently they have not done that. Thus i guess the spammers are taking a break.

A strong wallet is definitely needed to keep the precious resource bitcoins, wallets are a must watch as I deposit bitcoins but if the wallet is not strong it is more likely to get lost.
What do you call a "strong" wallet, call a wallet safe, secure, non-custodial, etc, but not strong, and it does not make sense in this context.
Because I haven't heard of people who have used bitcoins in the past losing their bitcoins.
You haven't heard of what, many early adopters lost their coins and people still lose Bitcoins till this day, but mainly because of their bad security practice and lack of knowledge about Bitcoin.
Since you mentioned non custodial wallets, these wallets are suitable for bitcoins but here later more powerful wallets have come in the market.
Currently Electrum wallets are strong enough, as I use this wallet.
What "powerful" wallets are you talking about, any wallet that you use should be non-custodial and open source. Electrum wallet is a good wallet because it meets all the criterias of a safe and secure Bitcoin wallet.

Bayern Munich always been a tough team in Champions League, unfortunately they're in tough bracket since they will meet either Real Madrid or Manchester City in order to enter final round.
It is during the QF draw that teams would know the opposition teams that they would possibly meet on their way to the final, mind you that after the RO16 fixtures are over and we now have 8 teams, there would be another draw, that is when you can know the teams that would face who in the next rounds, but for now that's not possible and you can't know if Bayern Munich would face either Real Madrid or City in the next rounds.

Maybe now Liverpool is worthy enough to  compete with Man City and prove who won the trophy.
Liverpool is definitely in the title race, what i like most about their title charge this season is how they have gone about it with little to no noise, at the start of the season everyone was looking at City and Arsenal only, and too many people were not giving Liverpool a chance at the title, maybe because of how bad they were last season. Having said that, Liverpool have proved that they can still challenge for the title, and yes they can win it, though imo City are my favorites to win the title and Liverpool would come second.
