501  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Rumours that russia will use nuclear but where ? on: June 12, 2024, 04:14:06 PM
This is bullshit as they will not use nuke else we all will be doomed if nuclear war starts, countries who have the nuclear weapon cannot use it now because there are more than one nation which possesses it and if there is any retaliation from another nuclear armed nation that's all. Why would they use it when they are fighting with much weaker opponents who are surviving due to outside support?
To me I disregard the rumour not to be true. Although it could be possible that Putin may have layed such threat as a terror tactics to demoralize a significant formation of the NATO.

We all already know the threats and warning that has been extended to him, so possibly he jus wanted to remind the World know that he is equiped with nuclear weapons too to fight back.

Literally I believe he would not do that because it has not gotten to that considering the active super weapons in used already and the fact that Ukraine can not overpower him to the extend of unleashing nuclear weapons.

What advantages do you think sports betting and card games have over trading and investing?
Trading and investment risks are as results of traders and investors failing to understand the market system or during when there is an economy inflation and recalling from past experience can always have you the chances to secure your assets.

In the sport and card gambling, you are only based to secure your winning by luck and recalling your past experiences would only enhance your gaming knowledge but can not assure you to win at your next round.

So literally, I do not see any reasonable reasons so say that gambling has advantage over investment and trading.
If I must say, the only advantage sports and card base gambling could have over the above mentioned is that you can stake little amount of money to win huge profit but that is if only you are lucky to win. Else, I can not figure any advantage in gambling over trading and Investing.
503  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Parents on childs savings bank accounts are waste of time if not saving on BTC on: June 12, 2024, 12:05:23 PM
It is a reality fact that most middle class or rich parents as it may be classified, who has future plans for their underage kids usually creates bank accounts for them with designated periods of depositing funds in the account on a specific amount and also period of time.
So when the kid (s) grows up he/she can utilize the fund as desired but aimed on productive utilizations.

The expectations of the parents is to norture the kids on financial management and letting them know that storing money in the bank is the safest place so that you can be financially disciplined and also stay keep off from thefts.

Looking at this system, it is like investing on Bitcoin for a long term goal and accumulating more Bitcoin values in applying the DCAs and hodl in a specific period of time aimed to achieve a goal.

Comparing the parents motive in this digital era, such banking plans for kids is a waste of time.
For instance, imagine parents depositing the least $100 per month in the childs bank account assuming the child is 5years old, you will hold for more 13 years for the children to grow an adult before having access to the bank account.
That means the parents are funding the account on monthly basis for 13 years.

Assuming the parents applies this practice in Bitcoin investment, the parents would not only safe store the funds for the kid (s) to start up their desired life but has engaged the child in an investment whereas he/she will grows up, harvest the profits overtime and still keep accumulating and holding firmly the asset as a lucrative hope for his/her future.

Having the money stored in the bank would have it loose values considering the current economy situation and the possibilities that the future holds worsen economy threats.
Therein, the fiats are quite fast loosing values and inflation is distancing the stocks from gaining valuabilities.

If only the parents would understand the safety and productivity potentials in storing values in the digital assets as Bitcoin, then it would be better if they grow their kids minds of financial management and productiveness by redirecting them to Bitcoin instead of the banks.

Investors who had been in the Bitcoin industry for couple of years can attest the profitable rewards of holding and accumulating such assets on $100 monthly bases for 13 years or above depending on the kids age before getting things planned.
504  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: (Odds discussion) Would you still stick in your favorite casino if....? on: June 11, 2024, 03:19:06 PM
And if there is a new bookie offering much higher odds than those 3, I would say, be very careful as this may be a trap if they are offering higher odds.
One thing about new bookmakers is that they will try all their best to give better offers than the existing bookmakers. One of the better offers they would give are higher odds. The odds will not be far higher than the existing bookmakers but with just slight differences. But if you use huge amount to calculate the profit, the profit difference can also be somehow high on the new bookmaker. The odd should be of little difference, but if it is very high odds than usual, it would likely be a scam bookmaker.
You are right. Some newly launched casino sites would likely want to make a bit additional odd to other standard casino sites as a marketing strategy to attract bettors and with the little added odd differences, bettors would always want to bet higher wager than expected so that they can increase the winning and when the bettor looses it means the casino gained more but it won that is to say the bettor won more comparing to bettors who betted on the other gambling sites with the standard odds.

But while looking out for these higher odds on different casinos, it would be stress safe if considered sites reputations.

That's a nice strategy for them. Honestly, I didn't realize that it's the kind of benefit sportsbook are getting, they'll put a very attractive odds to attract bettors and when there's more volume of bettors gambling, they'll get a better profit.

Let's make a illustration, we can compare two casinos, 1 has 10% vig and the 2nd has 5% vig on every win.

If casino 1- has total wagers of $2 million.. that's $200k vig.
if casino 2 - has total wagers of $20 million, that's $1 million vig.

So there's really a big difference here, and volume is the key, and the best way to attract volume is to show them the best odds.
As marketing strategies may be concerned, most times those newly casino sites with higher odd to wager bettors are promo terms just to attract bettors and once they have achieved to gain popularity and has also be confident that those bettors has become familiar with them, then the casino odds would be reviewed to be equivalent with other casino site odd.
505  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Breakout Alert! 🚀 on: June 11, 2024, 12:37:00 PM
It was rejected at $71k and it is currently inside the symmetrical triangle if the price retests again at that level and breaks the $71k there is major resistance on $73k but if it also breaks we might see a continuation and reach a new ATH.

However, I think it's too early to see the price above $73k unless there is a big whales pushing the price to break this price.
Very much too early to have such a skyrocketing expectations as Investors sentiments has not yet erupted. Everyone is at the pool of accumulating for now due to the recent halving event so, little significant challenges in the market currently does not mean the uptrends of the market price is heading to catch up a new ATH.
Looking at the market today, the market cap is resting around $66K.
506  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ALLinBETS Casino Gaming Platform on: June 11, 2024, 12:09:37 PM
What's your take on a centralized and decentralized casino platform?
I am definitely not bothered about if the government want to be authoritative over the casino because they are definitely not expecting me to pay taxes unless for a clearance on huge amount of winning which I would be glad to consider okay.

Although I considers casino demanding for KYCs as I may not want the government to have me on the track that I am associated with Crypto currencies. That is when we talk about the Crytop casinos.

Otherwise, I am only specific on gaming with the platforms that has my desired features and reputational casino sites either centralized or decentralized.
507  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Bitcoin mentorship. on: June 11, 2024, 07:33:58 AM
Mentorship on Bitcoin is a very good one for those inexperience that're basically relied on physical or one on one instructions rather than relying on self moderations of making research such as online reading and YouTube learning.

A lot of people actually have their ways of adaptions to learning and also how they can spread their knowledges to Impact others.
So being a mentor in Bitcoin requires a minimum level of experiences so that you do not mislead who's practically depending on your impacts.

Most importantly for mentees to acknowledge in their Bitcoin carrier are as follows >>>
* Must understand that Bitcoin is not a self moderating marketing industry, instead the volumes of the demands and supplies determines the markets value.

* Not a get quick rich investment industry so, patient and hodling for a long term could be the only way to guide your funds until it could process you with profits.

* It is a volatile digital currency potentially to fluctuates between increasing and decreasing.

* Only Invest with what is affordable to loose. This is so that your emotions would not be troubled when your expectations are not coming through on your expected time. You can also accumulate more to your assets on the DCAs of buying little by little with any spare money.

* Most have an alternative source of earning incomes so that your funds on Bitcoin can always serve as an asset for you because your Bitcoin assets is usually served as a hedge structure against economy inflation.

* You are signatory and self custodial to your bitcoin as a decentralized digital currency it is so, always be careful with your wallet and your secret phrases and passwords related to your Bitcoin assets.

* You can monitor your assets value through market cap.

These are the basic things a mentor could instruct on the mentees for proper guidance on their bitcoin journey.

Warning: Stay safe and secretive to your Bitcoin investment otherwise you will become a threat not just to theft a d scammers but the system of our government and the cryptocurrencies may change which the government maybe opened to hunting Bitcoin and Crypto relationship adoptors due to decentralized and centralized policies.

Also as... Every Bitcoin mentors must be a good learned and experienced Bitcoin enthusiastics and every Bitcoin mentees must be submissive to learning and abiding to guidelines but yet, do job undermine making researches.
508  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: BC.GAME Sending emails with the title, ''Withdrawal Notification'' on: June 10, 2024, 04:16:57 PM
Your image only has the mail contents and did not contain the aggrieved mail title. I also expected you will include the email address on the thread maybe for verification if it was coming from the official bc.game site because it could be possible that it is maliciously coming from scammers.

If I may ask, die you even subscribed to the site and if YES and you are still having deals with them then there is no need blocking them because you would be missing out important updates and you may likely want to reach them in some occasions. That is if truly it was the official email from the right source.
Then you also did well by blocking them If you did not subscribe on the site
509  Economy / Economics / Re: The government cares for no one but waits for you to get rich for taxes paying. on: June 10, 2024, 02:21:07 PM
This is the reason why the government didn't tax the poor.

Never Underestimate The Power Of Stupid People In Large Groups

The government mostly taxes middle class people because they're have a good mindset that didn't like the poor, but if they do something, it will not give a huge impact like the rich. Middle class people are the one who make the government rich because they don't mind to work hard and pay big amount of tax.

The rich pay less tax than the middle class since they learn tax avoidance and have a power to change something.
Quite convince able that everyone actually pays this taxes but the middle class people are the ones that the government focuses more on the tax structures because the middle classes may not be affordable to loose their source of income if they intends to thwart the governments order.

And besides they do not really understand the system of government yet so they would always be flexible to be controlled by the government unlike the highily rich people who knows the garbage in and the garbage out of the system of grievance.

Verily I am in doubt of the top politicians do pays these taxes when they are the ones programing the taxations and they are still the ones to give judgements so in a real essence, the taxes of the poor and the middle classes of people are getting the riches richer.

An obvious negligence that the poor and the middle classes are being oppressed on the struggling of their survival and financial upgrading just to enrich the riches richer by the taxing structures.

It is quite unfortunate for you not to had consulted after your research about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies having the same volatility potentials.

Bitcoin is actual unique from the rest cryptocurrencies which talking about their volatilities, Bitcoin does not seem so high as other coins which can possibly pump within a moment and and slumps in the next second of time.

I thrilled with your courage of not associating Bitcoin to be  one of the shitcoins you formally invested and lost your money on. Some persons gives up along the way by totally grieving and doubting crypto currencies as a whole without undermining that Bitcoins potential is exemptional.

Alert: There are still some of those shitcoins hypers and speculators who may hide itself unwarrantedly under the umbrella of Bitcoin just to convince you more to invest with them. So, keep watching conciously and do well to consult after your research at where complicated to you on your Bitcoins journey.

If it is assumed that the odds difference is based on the casino sites but on the same games and same risk on determining your winning predictions, only one thing would be involved in such circumstances which is going for a reputable casino that would not stress you at your  cashing out private time.
Most times bettors are trapped on sites with an opening of bigger odds.

To be more accurate Copper Membership rank is almost equal to Member rank (higher than Jr. Member).
Haven provide the OP with the requested link, I think it is also of good to let him know that he can be more than a junior member by his Activities and merits counts which can be attained by his activeness in the forum and as well his quality posts.

Regarded the fact that he/she is admitted to be a newbie, there might be a misconception to his little understanding to think that he can only rank up by buying an account such as the copper memeber just as demanded. So even if he you go ahead with it, let it be atleast be cleared to him/her.
514  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Team strength as the main predictor. on: June 09, 2024, 01:33:24 PM
Every sport bettors do have their factors of considering a prediction but it is agreed that most of these factors is based on the team as a whole and not players because an expected player to deliver the team might not be possibly active on every of the games. It could be as a curse of the player (s) sustaining injuries or needed a rest or other reasons.

So considering an individual player to be a strong hold on your prediction could give you a disappointment because you are not the coach to decide who plays or not.
This is not really that considering players individually does not proffer advantage to the better because also, per individual is still the one to bring victory to the team.

It all just goes vice versa because football and the sport games are unpredictable not until a popular and more strengthened team comes and opposition to a lower team before you could possibly assume that a particular team is potential to loose while the other is potential to win
515  Economy / Economics / The government cares for no one but waits for you to get rich for taxes paying. on: June 09, 2024, 11:29:05 AM
I do not know about other countries but in my country, politics has compromised the economy growth with equity.
As the transition of power evolves, the value of the citizens are depreciated in the eyes of the governments which now optimizes citizens to rely living in fortitude of bravery and accepting challenges so that we don't give it all up hopelessly.

We fight it out by ourselves like there is no government to provide us with some basic amenities and quite better to be called "a daylight robbery or extortion" that once individuals has struggled to make productive differences from the economy slavery chain of the government, you would be will assigned to revenue on taxations.

My question.... If the government could find utilizations on the citizens for taxations on generating funds for infrastructures and other government services , why don't they invest on the citizens or support those with the potentials to productiveness knowing quite well that once they makes success, they would be demanded to also contributed to the growing structures of the economy?
What the government knows is that if a successful individual refuses to comply with the government order, they will get you frustrated tending to fold your productiveness qualities or you go to jail.

So, why don't they tax the poor who barely struggle to eat?:Simply because they found those set of citizens useless and the prison will be occupied if charge them for not paying taxes since there are more Poor people than the rich in the society.

What does the verification have to take days for verification at first and not even that you are doing a wallet account upgrading? That is the 1st moment of suspect.

OP,  you too would had make your research if such strange wallet site is not only a software program specific for the site in use of scamming people because if the wallet does not permit other usability to other means of transactions then it does not seem trust worthy.

Again,why didn't the guy who offered you the job guide you by himself instead of redirecting you to the customer care? That is basically basis of your billing as a victim and then finally you were asked to pay for an OTP. What would you do that?
If it was a demand that you needed to pay the fee inform or gas to execute your withdraw transaction, that would had been more convince able but yet not still enough to believe it is a legit.

What is the nature of the job and what are the tasks layed on you as an employee there if I may ask? But anyhow, stay away from it because you are closer to be scammed and I also expect other forum members to take note of rus scamming strategy as a noted experience so that you do not have to fall victim otherwise.
517  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can someone take gambling as a source of income to he/she life? on: June 08, 2024, 01:06:02 PM
Gambling is a source of income for a greater percentage of gamblers but it is not ideal as an active source but passive source of income. As someone who believe that the primary motivation for a gambler is to make money, I still see gambling as a great source of passive income. Those who have won decent amount of money from gambling can confirm how helpful such wins can be and the quality of joy they bring. Unless as an agent, I will not advice anyone to make gambling a career because the winning is not regular and predictable.
Yeah, it is just one of the variable and invariable circumstances where every gamblers has the intensive expectations of winning and when they wins they are going to make profit out of it and that specifically has aimed gambling an income source but does not mean it is a basic source advisable for a gambler to rely on for a source of income because its resourcefulness is usually unpredictable which can harm its desperate chasers.

OP your question is actually questionable for better understanding so that you can get positive feedback you seek for
Heard about $120,000 Bitcoin on what aspect? Market price speculations or mining rewards?
If you were specific then you would get different opinions pointing at same goal but right here I doubt it because you even be confused due to opinions would come based on individual understanding of your post.

To my own understanding: We have met a new Bitcoin market ATH at $73K before the halving which has surpasses the previous ATH of $69K at 2021, investors are expects almost X2 of the last bull-run ATH to hit $120K by the ATH of this circle bull-run.
Although all these are just market sentiments where investors are only predicting what the future holds at this Bitcoins event circle.

Meanwhile... Other investors are expecting more or lesser than the specified $120K

The man is working in a club and betting against the gamble. I am not working as an employee in any club and this makes it different. If there is no rules that I can or can not bet against the club that I am employed, why not bet against them if you analyzed and think that the club will lose. I can do it. But provided if not against the rules. As the man is sacked, I think it is against the club rules for a worker to bet against them.
The man is probably sacked from his job on betting against the club the is working with as a point of contact that he could have leaked some secret bargains of the cline probably on a situation of fixed match.

Apparently such employee can not be trusted as the clubs would not be comfortable sharing their official and secret informations with him so, he would become a saboteur to the club and preventing that lead the club to sack him.
