I agree with you on this, i also think they are still in the title race but they need to be more consistent with their performance to challenge Liverpool and Manchester City. Liverpool is showing no signs of slowing down and Manchester City looked more confident and challenging with the recovery of  De Bruyne and they will be more clinical with Haaland back in the squad as well so there is more work ahead for Arsenal to match up with these two teams.

Winning a match can help bring back the confidence of the team but it is not enough, back to back wins and more consistency is all that is required.

We have our various view of things and if you think paying house rent in bitcoin is a mistake i am sure you have your reasons which you have stated in your post but it is unwise of you to think such person lacks financial knowledge. Bitcoin was created to serve several purposes and solve problems one of which is to serve as a means of payment alternative to Fiat. I don’t think i have come across a place where it is being stated that bitcoin was created as an investment tool, we are merely taking advantage of its volatile nature which is more like killing two birds with a stone.

If want the adoption rate to keep growing higher and if both parties are okay with bitcoin payments then i see nothing wrong with that. Allow me to take you back to when bitcoin was used to purchase pizza what do you have to say to that? A terrible mistake?
Holding bitcoin is wise but that shouldn’t be a reason not to spend our bitcoin as we please.


True, but it is all dependent on the person in question, is is okay with it? I own my bitcoin and i have the right to use it the way i pleases. It is advantageous to hold bitcoin and paying house rent from your bitcoin holding doesn’t mean you are selling off your entire bitcoin.

Companies adopting bitcoin and people accepting bitcoin payments in their businesses has been a good development for bitcoiners as it have helped make things more easier for them.

No man wants to become irrelevant or surpassed by others that’s where the greed for wanting more emerges from. Being an average individual with an average status doesn’t make one seek out competition from others but at the top the competitive level is very high that’s why people with high status seek for more status (power, wealth, properties and assets) to match up the level at the top so they don’t become irrelevant or inferior to others. Nothing is never enough, we are human and we were created to seek for more except if we are yet to achieve a certain level but once achieved we will want to soar higher.

Humans naturally want more, believing that their current level, rank, or position is inappropriate for them. They yearn to rise above their current situation and pursue greater goals, whether they be related to status, riches, power, or knowledge, believing that their current status would never suffice once attained. The same is true with the forum levels; when I first started, I wanted to be a Senior Member, but now that I've attained it, I am seeking for Legendary rank, and I think I'm not the only one who feels this way.


With a thousand merits are you the only one that achieved the milestone? No, we have lots of Legendary rank members with  a thousand plus merit but the one that is easily recognized everywhere is the one with the highest merit point so there you have your little competition for the most merited user. But you should understand that here in the forum everyone just wants to keeps contributing and helping others as it is their duty and while performing their duty the merits keep coming.

Kevin de Bruyne is an exceptional player who should be given a spot alongside great footballers as he has shown his brilliance and ability in big stages and have kept a consistent form despite suffering from injury, he just continues from where he left off as if he never left.

He is playing a huge role for his team and Guardiola, he is a player capable of changing the course of a game singlehandedly and it would have been a different story for Manchester City if he was not injured and out for months, they could have easily been top of the table with him around and Haaland would have been by far the leading goal scorer just as he did last season.

The team should make plans and start thinking of a replacement for him, his age is gradually wearing off and in a short time he would not be fit to play for Manchester City anymore so signing a replacement for him should be given a thought as soon as possible and now that he is being linked to other clubs it means he has no much time left to play for them.

Girona should not be doubted at all especially playing at home and knowing Sevilla are not in their best shape for now.
Real Madrid just keep proving how good they can be and so far this season they’ve been performing excellently winning and winning games but despite that they still haven’t secured the 1st position just yet with Girona proving to be a solid contender.


I never doubted Real Madrid but sincerely i thought i lost my money after they conceded 2 goals to Almeria but i never thought they’d win i thought getting a draw was all they could. They surprised me with the 3rd goal in the extra minutes of the game that’s the mentality of a great team, never lose hope and never stop fighting back.

You seem like a Chelsea that have watch Armando Broja play multiple times and have seen how he plays but i must say everyone has their style of play and obviously you dislike Broja’s style of play, i also don’t fancy his style and despite Jackson missing a lot of chances i still prefer him to Broja. A lot of factors are being considered when valuing a player and from the way the transfer market have turned out recently I don’t think Broja should worth less considering that he is young and have really not got enough opportunity to prove himself yet, his appearance this season have been inconsistent so it’s difficult to fully rate his full potential.


Surely one needs to adapt to change of environment but I don’t think players of such experience should feel pressured into signing a new club. Henderson may be affected due to the form of the team and that doesn’t mean he should change a team just yet, at least he should finish the season before joining Ajax or be patient until the team gains back their form.


  All i see is Chelsea fans ranting. If they eventually sell Broja for that price it is going to be a win win for you and the club, making such amount on a player that has no much use for the club. If i were you i would pray they succeed so they club will have enough money to finance the purchase of a better striker.

Indeed, in the world of cryptocurrency, there is no such thing as a second chance or a "pardon me, I don't know." We should educate ourselves about it beforehand to know what we are getting into and understand how to go about it so we don't end up losing money and having a horrible first experience. Everything that occurs to you when trading or holding is entirely on your head, and you really got what you deserved.


Knowledge is key to everything especially in the crypto space, with knowledge you will know the right step to take and the best decisions to make. Those who lack knowledge and wants to invest will think investing in bitcoins will require a huge amount to start up but with knowledge we have come to understand that the easiest way to accumulate bitcoin is to adopt a DCA strategy using an amount one can afford to lose. No pressure, no stress and no fear of losing your investment. DCA strategy allows us to invest at our own convenience with the little income we make.

Knowing your way around in the crypto space and earn profits is all down to the knowledge you acquire and all those people who make profits from crypto investments are not magicians neither are they special they just achieve so much because of the knowledge they possess and like OP I would say they got what they deserve. People who lose so much in trading or holding cryptocurrency can be linked to the lack of knowledge about cryptocurrency and so they also got what they deserved because they invested out of ignorance.

Any trader or investor with sufficient knowledge will be able to comprehend that all of the trading methods mentioned above are not ideal and are extremely risky for any trader. They will also be aware that emotional regulation and self-control play an important role for all traders.


As previously stated, the outcome of a trade is solely a reflection of the trader's performance, which is determined by how thoroughly he researched and grasped the market, as well as the effort he put into his trading career. Results do not lie, a trader may be lucky, but if the results are consistent, it is noticeable that it is no longer luck. If the result is consistently negative, it's clear that the trader got what he deserved.

He must have been regretting his decision to leave Liverpool by now, if lack of playing time was the reason why he left then I would say he has no value for the club if he expects the coach to play him over young talents being brought to the team. He is already 30 years old and obviously his performance was depreciating that was why he was not given much playing time and also he should have known better that the competition in the league is very high and all teams are looking to sign younger players to compete and stay relevant.

His move to Saudi was a good one but he just landed in the wrong club that was why he couldn’t succeed there, saudi pay their players well andd at such age he should rather focus on earning more money for his family than seeking to play in a relevant club that pay less.

I don’t see how moving to Ajax can benefit his career but let’s see if he can help them regain their best form again.

The competition is getting tougher and tougher and it will get more tense whenn we get to the knockout stage, semifinal and final because i believe only the strongest teams will survive that extent. Currently now it is still very open as some strong sides like Egypt and Ghana are still trying to find their feet in the competition and if care is not taken one of them will exit the tournament in the early stages.

The match between Egypt and Ghana was an interesting match full of exciting moments and goals and it is just as you said, Ghana’s defense was really poor which made them concede goals every time they scored to take the lead. Mohammed Kudus proved to us once again that he is a bright star with a bright future and that he shouldn’t be given a chance when he has the ball around the 18 yard box.

Surely we know say work scarse for d country but that doesn’t mean that we should disregard the degree because the knowledge acquired during this process is valuable and very useful in our daily lives and also opens us to many possibilities. On the other hand, acquiring a skill has its own benefits as one can easily create an employment opportunity for himself and wouldn’t necessarily have to wait for any white collar job.

Having both is really important as it broadens your skills and possibilities of employment. In this our country people with degrees and other school qualifications are more respected in the society than self employed people with developed skills no matter the difference in their earnings but i am not trying to condemn skill acquisition because e de very helpful to our youths nowadays and e be like say na im be the sure way now.

Op as you said, employers de look for people with specific skills so them might go for people with developed skills but hope say you no forget say degree also na specific skill dem specialize on just be say their own na formal education, na one course person de study and dem go give you certificate for just one course even though along the road you had to study plenty courses.

Both have their respective advantages and if it is possible to acquire them both we should not hesitate to because they are both important.

It looks fake and edited. The disguise mask looks so fake and it could actually be a disguise by the officials of the casino either trying claim the reward themselves or trying to misled their customers.

When people are being rewarded this way the cheque's are usually bigger than this to be bold enough for people to see. The picture really looks suspicious and there are too many red flags to raise suspension but it is difficult to come to conclusion that it's not real.

Winning such a huge amount and disclosing the identity of the winner can be dangerous as the winner can be easily targeted by criminals so it is sometimes safer not to disclose the winner's identity but it should look real and  not be an edited image.


100% Fake, there is definitely something wrong somewhere about the picture.

Given their recent losing streaks—they have lost their last three games in a row and have only won once in their last seven games across all competitions—Arsenal will want to uutilize the break to restart and improve their performance again. To avoid losing the opportunity to compete for the title again this season they would want to win at all costs.

The Premier league is unpredictable, we can witness a shocking performance from Crystal palace and i won't be surprised if this happens. Arsenal just have the advantage of welcoming palace to the Emirates stadium other than that i think their performance will determine the result of the match.

Because of the stories they hear, people who are ignorant of bitcoin always perceive it as a get rich quick investment. They believe there is no risk involved and that it will simply generate profit and make them wealthy quickly, without having to worry about learning and understanding its concept. They go right in without knowing anything about it, then when they lose money, they start complaining and accusing bitcoin of causing their losses rather than taking responsibility for their own actions for not learning first. Uninformed Bitcoin investments rarely work out well, and they run the risk of being scammed later on.

Nowadays, there are hardly any legitimate mining websites, especially not for bitcoin. Of the ones that exist, over 99% are scams that are created by scammers to trick you into thinking they are real. Investing on these websites is highly unsafe because the scammers will eventually leave you with nothing. Such platforms are only seen as investments and opportunities to generate money by those who are eager to make money.

Experience can lead to bad thoughts regarding Bitcoin, but I'm sure that the only people who constantly raise negative opinions and believe Bitcoin to be a scam are those who don't know anything about it. Those that criticise bitcoin bother me less because I think ignorance is the basis for the critics and that after being scammed by someone who took advantage of their ignorance, they want to blame bitcoin for it.


It's vital to carefully research what you're getting into before making any investments because this is the kind of situation that ignorance and haste will land you in. Nowadays, we have easy access to free education so before making any financial investments on any platform, we can make use of the internet or ask educated individuals around us questions about whatever we don't know.

You did a good thing by showing him a way out of his ignorant position, i just hope he is ready to learn about bitcoin and adopt it or else leading him here would just be a total waste of your time.

Where is this model derived from? You are making trading sound simple and easy i just hope this post doesn’t mislead others by making them think it’s as easy as this model.

Trading requires in depth knowledge and understanding and this usually takes months to achieve despite that it still requires practice and all this still wouldn’t guarantee 100% success rate. I like the way you structure out your points though but you need lay much emphasis on knowledge because it the most important aspect of it, having a strong background will increase your chances of success and also only trade an amount you can afford to lose.

Also your post title de talk about trading and for your 3rd point you de talk about investor instead of trader.

Trading na very risky business and i no go advise anybody to start de trade when e no sabi anything about am, basic knowledge sef no bad but for trading i no sure say e go do so me i believe say na to get in-depth knowledge about am na im better pass so you go sabi all the risk management principles and the understand when to enter market and when to comot and also so you go sabi the best strategy wey you go de adapt wey go suit you pass.

Ps: because dem talk say trading na about risk no mean say you go just de take risk anyhow, alway make sure you take calculated risks and ensure they are not beyond your control.

It is not recommended to trade if you don’t know anything unless you have no use for your money and just want to lose them.

Trading without knowing anything about it will drain you dry that’s why it is not recommended for beginners or anyone who lacks knowledge about it to engage in trading. Learning and understanding the foundations of trading takes a lot of time and skills, and the risk is too great. Engaging in something you know nothing about is a careless act especially something that requires you to invest money, it only means you are willing to lose your money. Even Experts that are skilled and knowledgeable about trading trade cautiously because of the underlying risk involved in it, even with knowledge nothing is guaranteed but knowledge helps to keep the risk minimal.


Very risky that even experts does not encourage people to engage in it without having any knowledge about it. When trading is being mentioned what comes to people’s mind is risk and as such only people who have the courage to take risk engage in trading, they are ready for whatever challenges it throws at them so whoever wants to trade should be able to take risk and not expect to make profit everytime he trades. You should always trade an amount you can afford to lose, don’t ever borrow money to trade and always take reasonable risks within your limit.

The title charge is heating up nicely as Juventus just closed up the gap by two points after a wonderful display yesterday to win Sassuolo 3-0 at home. The performance was impressive and they now seem more like a team that really wants to challenge for the title, they are in good goal scoring form and they are in a good form overall this season because they haven’t lost many points and they have currently won their last 6 games and have not lose any of their last 10 games with 8 wins and 2 draws that is really a good performance that shows how ready they are to challenge for the title.

Lucky win for you, they are in good form so there is no doubt they would win the match but my focus is mainly for them to win the title, i have always been a fan of Juventus since Ronaldo’s arrival at the club. I hope they keep up the performance till the end of the season. 

Tears in my eyes as i read this, it so sad reading such news and hearing this forum will be losing another wonderful person, a hero that would always be remembered as a hero. You have impacted so much knowledge to us and have contributed greatly in this forum i wish you the very best. You will be missed and will forever stay in our hearts. My prayers are with you. Farewell Leo

It happens and we should understand that this is football so i am not surprised a bit, the lost could be as a result of some key players not featured in the match but that is really not an excuse to lose to a lower division side Bristol city. Few minutes to the second half West ham received a red card and it contributed to them not winning but i believe this performance will only stay in the FA cup,  they dare not bring such performance to the premier league else they would lose alot of points.

Indeed, everyone joined the forum for different reasons, and no one can be unfairly judged for their own reasons. The forum is large enough to accommodate everyone, but what you post and how you contribute here will define how others perceive you, so it's important to take the time to fully understand things before participating in the forum. Bitcointalk is not an office for anyone, rather, it is a place for discussion and education regarding bitcoin. Although, the information obtained here can be used to create wealth.


Can you show us a post where you are not wrong and someone just criticized you for being a newbie? This is unlike the forum. While trying to grow as a beginner be it in this forum or outside the forum, you will eventually get criticized in what you do especially when you are not doing it well. When a newbie skips the learning process and wants to start teaching others it is likely a disguise from an experienced forum member or when someone displays pure act of negligence to follow through the learning process, such acts are seen as a deceitful act in the forum and such users are not to be trusted.
People use newbie account to deceive and scam people that why newbie accounts are always suspicious here so a newbie is supposed to act as a newbie else they will get criticized easily.


You are not forced to be here and if you feel you have a job paying you enough that makes you feel you are bigger than this forum then there is no reason to be here. No one is bigger than knowledge and it doesn't matter how big you might be if you you seek knowledge you must obey and be submissive to whomever your teacher is regardless of their age or status so same thing applies here, you seek knowledge but you feel you are too big to be treated that way. You are not the first newbie to experience this and this probably because you are getting something wrong so I would suggest you amend your ways and be loyal and develop a thick skin to withstand criticism.


Nobody is making fun of anyone here. The standards are very high and have brought out the best in those who could handle the criticism. Those who couldn't handle it were not suitable for this place, and the standards here are much higher than their capabilities. Take it as a challenge, if you can withstand it, you are destined to succeed here. Everyone you see here was once newbies and has faced criticism in one form or another but they have endured proving that they are capable of being here. You must do the same if you really want to be here.
