It was no more news then that FTX was facing liquidity issues, only that people did not pay more attention to it as the company tries to prove strong and defended itself verbally. This happened until CZ who sees better than mere people because he's in the system, and perhaps had spies there announce the withdrawal of $2.1B. This was what actually triggered the panic withdrawal that eventually called for FTX to go insolvent.

When a company or an asset is stressed and news and surrounding events are adding to it, then there would be an imminent collapse. That's what I would say, and note that the circumstances behind the collapse of FTX and LUNA are not the same. For LUNA, there have been shady deals from the beginning, the intention was not clear, and not completely good, so the foundation was bad. The UST (Terra) used was another issue, while the arrest of Do Kwon triggered the domino effect.

I never believed that the Man U that was able to defeat Man City would not be able to win crystal palace which is in the 12th position in the league. Regardless, Man U did well, to me, and so was crystal palace which could not conceal more goals and still managed to score once. And as for Rashford, I don't like people blaming players when they are on the pitch, human brains calculate and decide in less than a second in some situations, so we can't blame him. If it had utilised more chances, you would not have termed him "selfish."

However, the match against Arsenal is another crucial match, and if Arsenal would defeat Man U, then they would have virtually secured their EPL trophy for the season.

I'm glad your eyes are now open, and thanks for letting the novice people know about your ordeal. It's not new to me the vices of scammers on the internet, it's we that should very be careful of those things that are too good to be true. Many people want to get rich quickly, but is this possible without following due process? I guess not.

There has been HYIP many decades before cryptocurrency, and people were scammed for it, and scammers are still using this style in the name of cryptocurrency. People have to be careful about this.

Social media is their main target, and that is why many warnings and disclaimers have been issued to those that care to listen. And the closest-fetched one is on the site of "Onentrepreneur" where everyone was tipped to be careful of the scams in the name of trust wallets.

I agree with most of your opinion but not all, as when one is winning in gambling, they would always want to continue gambling. After all, why do I need a break if what am doing is earning me consistent income? But for losing, that's where the problem comes in, gamblers tend to want to play again to recover their losses, and this might lead to more losses until some might be addicted to it in the pretence of recovering their losses or want to be rich through gambling.

While some would take a break and return later like you rightly said.

You have a good point, but more matches do not automatically translate to more injuries, these guys are used to this, and even when some clubs play more, and perhaps win trophies other than EPL, they still show signs of improvement more matches. It all depends on what happens on the pitch, not what we think would happen, and there might be players that would play less but have an injury, while some would play more but will have none or minor.

Also, the EPL is winding down little by little, my take is that Arsenal will be the winner, while Man U, Man City and Newcastle will be tge runner-ups.

I shock as I see dis headline from u, that na why I dey always tell people to sabi d source where dem dey read news. No be Naija alone, news outlets mata in everything we do if we no won dey look like a liar after issuing it out. Many tins dey sup 4 Naija now and d desperate politicians won put petrol onto a burning fire. Their plan na to arrest Emefiele by framing him to achieve their aims, but dem never succeed till now. Emefiele done fully resume office amidst arrest speculation, nobody still arrest am till today.

Wetin new be say more police don dey around in house, no body know d reason yet, maybe na to provide more protection or na to make sure e go court again 4 d Paris Club refund case today, who know?

Well said, but I would like you to know that crypto casinos are doing well with bonuses and other offers, this is what we gain in a competitive environment. Many are offering high bonuses, and it's left to gamblers to accept their offers and know what they are agreeing to when it comes to their terms and conditions.

But truly, many have been brainwashed with bonuses, they would be lured into accepting it but it would be difficult for them to make a dime from it because of the stringent conditions attached to it. Once a good casino is selected, this would be an added advantage, but still cannot earn them (casino) loyalty, it's a quality service that does that.

I was narrowly able to understand you, and I will like to correct you that it's all about the preference and preparedness of the investor. Be it fiat, crypto, stock or property, they are all good, and they serve their purpose when they are purchased at the right time. You don't invest in property at all times, and so are the others that have been mentioned earlier. What is good is to learn them to know the right time to do their investment and divestment.

It would not also harm anyone to diversify their portfolio as well, you can invest in all, or almost all to cut risk and make profit surer.

Bitcoin has indeed hit above $21k in January, this is not new to me as the new year comes with new possibilities. If you remember, last year was turbulent for the coin as inflation and global economic woes plagued it. Now, the inflation figures are now subsiding, and so is the world economy having more hope daily. These are the major reasons why BTC is appreciating in value, and more are to be seen because the market sentiment through technical analysis is now bullish in the long-term disposition.

There is nothing wrong with what the OP has explained and even with the meaning he/she wants us to relate to what it wrote, you are only claiming the same thing from a different view. Handling/managing emotions and losses, and maintaining a responsible gambling lifestyle that will help are still striving towards the same goal.

Anyone could proffer any solution to his problem to cut loss and perhaps increase earnings, it does not matter how it looks to others so long as it's working for the person.

I second you on this, betting against the public is not a strategy, it's gambling with a different belief which I know would put the gambler in trouble most times. This approach would make the gambler lose much in football, though other gambling avenues might still be the same as they would be for any gambler because luck is mostly required.

In gambling, no certain method works, but in football, you can easily predict the team that would win, this might not work all the time but it would work most times like say over 85% for the public. So predicting against over 85% means you have less than a 15% chance of winning, and it will not be able to sustain the person though the odds against the public are much higher.

The standing of Man City is shaking at the second spot, I never believed that they could let themself be beaten by Man U in such a crucial match. And maybe you did not understand @Fakhrulenclix very well, Newcastle must have been his preference for the second spot, not even Man U which is most people's favourite to hold the second position if Man City is displayed.

As it is now, both Man U and Newcastle are having 38 points, which is just a point lower than Man City. They could be very good displacers with this current dispensation as both teams are doing very well.

Electrum is a good Bitcoin wallet and I've seen many people say well of it, yet nothing is to be trusted 100%, but if the fault is not from the wallet itself, then you should absorb any blame as your fault if your coin is stolen.

Carelessness in most cases is the reason why money is stone, we should never trust anyone and even our gadget if we want to safeguard anything that is related to the internet.

All the possible security features must be activated on the wallet for proper security with a potent password combination of upper and lower case letters, numbers and others. And nothing must be stored on the computer, phone, and other gadgets. If possible on the 2FA, the gadget that would receive the combination must be offline or has nothing in common with the gadget from which you operate the wallet.

The answer the OP seeks is not far-fetched, I knew a thing like this would happen, so I'm not surprised at all. If a company is dead is different from a company that goes insolvent, FTX did not die, it only went insolvent, and the change of management is proof of that. No company that is dead will have its CEO changed (From Sam Bankman-Fried to John J. Ray III).

Aside from that, there have been a lot of internal reforms within the company's activities, and I believe that more experienced hands would have been employed. This is in addition that there are some branches of the company that was not affected by the unfortunate incident of insolvency, and as they are doing well, everything would be counting positively for FTX and FTT.

And the last good news I received a while ago indicates that FTX is engaging in partnership with other companies, this would surely strengthen the company over time. And with the CNBC news on withdrawing hope for FTX Japan customers by mid-February is another reason among many others that could cheer FTT market price.

Thank you for this alert, and I personally believe that Bitcoin has entered into the long-term bullish phase, the bearish phase that dominated last week might be indeed over for now.

I don't believe that there is still a trend/swing trading indicator/strategy that is yet to show GREEN for the bullish trend, and it's worth noting that the price action on the weekly chart calls for it. If you look at the last 8 preceding candles on the weekly chart you posted, the market was so sluggish and tarried so much with tight daily movements.

It's now practical for a decisive breakout to cause a bullish confirmation across the market board after the decisive breaking of the peak of the sideways market last week.

You are on point, and I will continue to tell people that we should not entirely judge others because we are free from their plagues, mental prowess varies among human beings. Initially, I judge people on addiction because I viewed addiction as a choice, this was as to why they could not prevent it before it eats deep into them. But on second thought, we do not have the mental power to challenge situations the same way, still, those that are addicted would not be totally exonerated from the blame, but when they are in, they need help instead of judging them.

All my life I have stayed away from trouble and addiction, this is why I made the last point, I am alert and conscious of my actions. There was a time that I was getting addicted to Lotto, I made sure that I forced myself from not doing it throughout that time before it gets worse, and it works till today. Anyone can discipline themselves to be responsible too.

The OP could try as much as he/she wants, but seeking help might reduce the stress and make the realization of the dream faster. I remember when I started investing online, it was not easy, I drilled myself so much because the internet was not like this then where you can have access to information quickly. I knew how stupid I was in finding my path, though I made it eventually, yet I would have sought help if it were to be this time.

Even if you know what you think is working for you now, you cannot know everything from a single source, you need multiple sources to gain more experience. So I see no reason why you should not reach out if need be instead of drilling yourself more.

Bitcoin touches lives, there are many that did not know they could own their cars and houses at the time they possessed them because of Bitcoin. We can't neglect this fact and many more as Bitcoin has helped create many jobs in so many facets of the economy. But what I am not comfortable with is your topic of this thread, the global economy is vast, and the decentralization of bitcoin could not help in impacting it much as most transactions are private, not to talk of you using "all" in your writeup.

I don't think a literate person should think much about this because it's all about betting and the right calculation/exchange, and whether it's Bitcoin or fiat, it doesn't matter. The value of the wager itself shouldn't be the reason why anyone should be scared to use crypto, this is about simple calculations, and the betting will all be risked correctly.

One should only be wary of the casino that would force a high crypto wagering minimum on them, that is the only where issues would arise in this regard.

I never believed that the match could turn out to be what it is, Man U did a good job, and so was Man City. But the City like that of the beginning of this season is lacking, more needs to be done in the area of their aggressive attack as it was. Man U has proven they are fully back, and they are now a single point below City, which is a serious threat to them in the second position.

Another mistake from City would cost them more. It's only Arsenal that is still comfortable in the first position, the second position will now be keenly contested by United and City, and I don't have a preference between the two anymore.
