481  Economy / Economics / Re: Agent of Economic stimulant on: March 28, 2024, 08:26:50 PM
So this lead me to be thinking about the word economy and what and what is actually responsible for an economy to grow and what are the economic stimulant
If there can be a massive investment by the government into the work force of the country, set up and improve and upgrade facilities that already exist for production, and create incentives to encourage healthy competition to improve productivity, the economy of the country will improve quickly.

With improved productivity a country will have enough commodity to avoid importation, there will also be enough commodity to ensure that the prices do not soar from scarcity, and then also have enough commodity to also sell to other countries who are in need of them.

Is there less human pressure if gambling is conducted in the same place with friends?
It depends on the kind of friends,
If they are good friends that are not in any competition with you, you will not feel bad if you loose and they win, there will be no pressure. They will cheer you up.
If they are bad friends, they will criticize you if you loose and they win, they may make you get depressed.

Does gambling excites you?
It is an activity for fun, so it should be exciting.

The excitement that comes from gambling should be put under control, else you become the gambler who is unable to control themselves because of always craving for this excitement always.

Over excitement is also dangerous while gambling because it puts you at a position to make wrong decisions and game analysis because you are too unstable to think straight due to excitement.
484  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Africa Football Discussion || Current Topic: Worldcup qualifiers - CAF. on: March 27, 2024, 09:04:11 PM
I will first have to ask if the Nigerian match against Mali last night was a friendly match or a qualifier. I didn't view the match but I read the commentary and went through the statistics. Something was so strange. Although Nigeria lost but the Nigerian players have individual good rating more than the Mali players. This gave me the impression that Nigeria dominated the match.
It was just a friendly game luckily for us, so the loss will not cost us anything only prestige. If Nigerian players still had a good rating even though they lost, it can be interpreted that their performance was not all bad, and lost the game because of mistakes.

But if I am NFF (employer), the coach that took the team to the finals of the AFCON did well and should be retained. I don't know for others shaa.
Are we still talking about this? Poseiro had a deal with NFF, and he was not able to meet up with the target, this is why NFF are making another deal with another, with another target set. I do not hate the idea of a local coach.

Another interesting question is this, as a father would you force it on your child to also fan the same club you're a fan to, or you will allow him be himself to fan any club of his choice even if it's your most rival club of all times.
What if your child is not interested in sports at all, or interested in a different sport asides the one you are interested in? you cannot make sure your preferences are your child's preferences too, that is wrong upbringing. Expose children to various choices, so they make the choices that their hearts incline to.

It can be a very boring for a father who love sports to have none of his children interested in the same sport as his, but that is a reality you have to face.
486  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The power of HODLing BTC on: March 27, 2024, 02:56:04 PM
So I bring this for some folks to actually share atleast boost our spirits in the HODL journey especially those newbie to the space, that if someone out there is still HODLing why not HODL?.
A more dedicated hodler can benefit more from bitcoins than an inconsistent trader or even a miner. The challenge to keeping your Bitcoin is avoiding temptation to want to use them and always this temptation are not always things that are not important, they may also be things that are important.

To this legendary hodler who has set a good example, I am certain that he was also tempted to tamper with their bitcoins at some point while they were hodling. This hodler is a living example of discipline.

487  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Has BTC really become more attractive than gold? on: March 27, 2024, 01:51:43 PM
  • Do you think BTC has become more attractive than gold in the investment sector?
Bitcoin has become more attractive to the young who are seeking to have some kind of investments, but not very attractive to many of the older generation  to whom bitcoin is still new. If the option between been gifted gold or gifted bitcoin is thrown to a young person, without demanding to know the quantity, many young people will choose bitcoins because it will be easier for them to keep safe as they are more friendly with technology.
  • Have people like Peter Schiff accumulated a lot of BTC while still badmouthing BTC in the media?
It is not impossible. Even if he has not yet accumulated bitcoins now while badmouthing BTC, his opinions may change tomorrow and he will never come out again to say that he has started accumulating bitcoins.

Just as the title stated, what do you think will becomes of gambling enirly if we wake up one morning to the news of global banning of football,  or a country ban it citizens from participating in football both as a game and also a sport.
There will always be alternatives.

It is a certainty, that the news will surely discourage some gamblers, but I believe that a larger number of gamblers in this category will seek alternatives, other games that they can gamble on.

Gambling has become a part of some people's life, and unless gambling is entirely stopped, some gamblers will never stop.

You may be physically exhausted, but mentally active. Gambling is not a physical activity, it is more of a mental activity and so it is okay for someone to gamble when they are physically exhausted but mentally still active, but not okay for someone to gamble when they are mentally exhausted and physically active.

I didn't come across this topic on time hence my lateness to replying this very interesting topic. I'm going to skip right through whatever any other person has said and just add my opinion because I have often advised people about this sort of situation before.

Paying money for knowledge is never a waste because by the time you spend and commit money to learning something, there is a psychological benefits that you have knowing that you have invested in it hence you must want to see the profit from your investment. Also, if some people do not pay for knowledge, they will never value it.
492  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to handle unethical casino tactics? on: March 25, 2024, 02:13:06 PM
One individual, Sydney, stands out with mind-boggling payouts, one payout of $37,650.00 on a $10.00 bet equaling a payback percentage of 376500% that raise eyebrows. Are these winnings within the realm of normalcy, or do they hint at something more dubious?

Furthermore, it's concerning that this casino operates without a gaming license or fails to disclose it publicly, alongside neglecting to audit a staggering 95% of its games.

Now, I pose a question to the community: Are we comfortable with these practices? And if not, what steps should we take next?

Immediately you become a feel uncomfortable with the services rendered by casino, the next line of action should be to find another casino to gamble on where your concerns are addressed and you feel more comfortable.

There are many names on the list of reputable casinos, if you suddenly feel uncomfortable with one, try another.
493  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How not to lose your Bitcoin ? New encrypted secured KYC Lock Wallet by SN on: March 25, 2024, 01:37:28 PM
For as far as I am concerned about the matter, I have discovered three different way you can protect your Bitcoin.
There are more than three different ways to protect your Bitcoin, there are multiple safety precautions some that have already been stated and some others we will get to discover with time.

Being cautious with new cryptocurrency applications and services within this period where we are close to the halving and after is another security advice so you do not loose your bitcoins to cybercriminals who are skilled enough to develop cryptocurrency applications with the aim to scam people later.

To newbies especially, now is not the time to try new cryptocurrency applications to invest or store your bitcoins, use applications that have a standing reputation already.
494  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is Bitcoin a scam on: March 24, 2024, 11:15:58 PM
It's  so funny  that at this stage and century , some people still believe that Bitcoin  is a scam after it has proven itself  over and over  which has led to it's massive adoption.
It is now no longer just funny but now it is just a pitiable situation because anyone having that kind of believe is clearly outdated with information and is clearly showing an actual absence in the ability to  check and verify whatever they know from the internet.

Do not stress yourself about this sort of individuals because if you have tried talking to them and they shown signs of belligerence you better let them be and focus on your own investment which is more important.
495  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can we still truly achieve anonymous gambling in crypto? on: March 24, 2024, 09:20:00 PM
What do you think about this one, where is are we heading? And can we still consider crypto casino different from fiat casino?
Things have quickly changed in the world of cryptocurrency, so it has affected gambling with it also as well. When there were no concerns about the illegal activities that were been done with bitcoin like money laundering, Casino's could operate freely without KYC. Now that the authorities know that criminals are exploiting their casino accounts and were using it for some sort of illegal activities, Anti Money Laundering laws were formed to tackle it and that involved Casino KYC that challenges anonymity. These laws will not go away, they may even become stricter, and we may see more policies that will further blow out any hope left for anonymity with gambling with crypto.
496  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ International Football Prediction and Discussion Thread ⚽ on: March 24, 2024, 08:38:01 PM
With a very messy team, Brazil defeated a strong team like England. With Brazil's recent decline in performance and the disarray of this team, as a Brazil fan I wasn't expecting Brazil to win against England, but Brazil did. 
I never look at the Brazilian side as a messy team because just as England players have a lot of talented players, the Brazilian side also are not short of talents. They also have some of the best players in the world playing in the best leagues, so to me they were equally matched with England.

In the 80th minute of the match, young up-and-coming star Endrick finished brilliantly with a great pass from Vinicius Jr.  Endrick's lone goal sealed the win for the team.
It was not a pass, it was Vinicius trial at goal, that was pushed in the direction of Endrick by the goalkeeper. He placed it cooly an celebrated loudly his first international goal.

Despite such a team condition against the likes of England, a win will undoubtedly restore the confidence of the team's players and management. 
Indeed.

At one time I saw such a discussion where many people said that Brazil will not be able to qualify for this World Cup. If Brazil does not qualify for the World Cup, the World Cup will be incomplete because when the football World Cup starts, Argentina and Brazil are the most talked about.
Brazil were one of the favorite teams predicted to win the competition last time, they did not, so we expect them again in the next competition, they have a talented team that can win it, they just need better management.
497  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How safe is saving screenshots of useful information and BTC transactions? on: March 24, 2024, 08:17:53 PM
* My question is, how safe is it to keep screenshots of Bitcoin/crypto transactions and useful information, on ones device?
Sometimes leaving any clue on your phone that you are involved in Bitcoin transactions can put you at risk especially if you are someone that permits friends and family to use your phone. The gallery is one of the places people will always check on your phone when they have any opportunity to use it, and when they are evidence of these sort of transactions, they can become convinced that there is really something to steal from you.

If they are not the type that can plan to steal from you, they will have more confidence to ask you for financial assistance more regularly because they are convinced that you can provide for them from the evidence of the kind of transactions you make regularly from screenshots. If they regularly ask you for assistance and you are the type that finds it difficult to refuse and turn down people, it can greatly affect your ability to DCA properly and even hodl well the investments that you already have.
498  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Always check the deposit address on: March 24, 2024, 07:54:13 PM
I recently made a loan using a casino wallet address,
Unless it is money meant for gambling it is usually a big mistake to receive money meant for other purpose through your gambling account.

Cross-checking of deposit address whenever it is to be made should be a culture of every investor because asides deposits address changing, there is also the possibility of clipboard virus in your device without your knowledge so you must always cross check to be sure so that whenever an address changes you will be prompt to really observe it before you make the mistake of sending.
499  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: End Goal or Keep HODLing? on: March 24, 2024, 07:34:38 PM
Should I leave my Bitcoin forever without selling it or set a goal that I have in mind and when it reaches that goal I sell and take my profits?
Nobody on this forum has the right to dictate what you do with your Bitcoin by the time he hits a target that you're okay with. You will Always hear people talk about hodling bitcoins for as long as possible, the "as possible" from that statement means to the point when you are okay with hodling and then decide to sell off some for other purpose.

While hodling your bitcoins, have  a target and a purpose for hodling, having a target or a purpose for hodling can be something to motivate you into hodling more.
500  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC 2030 Assumptions on: March 23, 2024, 11:59:19 PM
BTC 2030, what is your educated opinion on the state of BTC come the end of the decade?
Bitcoin and cryptocurrency will become more of a normal discussion and maybe by then there will be another exciting technology or opportunity for investment that may be taking away the attention or competing with the attention of people against the investing in cryptocurrency particularly bitcoins. We never expected a technology and innovation like cryptocurrency particularly Bitcoin to come out in this decade, so that is that another technology may break out again in this decade. By 2030 also, I see acceptance and adoption among businesses and individuals.
