Bitcoin has gone far way beyond its existence coming to an end, we have seen alot of downside from it in the past and lots of people who awaits the slightest opportunity to criticize it and try to predict bitcoin existence would come to an end but how does bitcoin react to these criticism? I just love it, the way it proves doubters wrong, it always bounces back no matter how deep it falls.

This shows it has the potential of reaching even greater heights in future and people who try to paint bitcoin image bad are only missing out on the benefits bitcoin of adopting bitcoin, they need to understand that bitcoin is not just the baby coin they knew years back it has grown into a global asset which cannot die overnight.

This is right and it mostly deepens on a person’s mood or what they are currently going through, at different moods a certain story can serve two different purposes. Sharing your success stories just as you mentioned Op is good to serve as motivation for others and it is not your fault if it triggers some people because you are not aware of their situation and yoyr intentions are clean and you never intended for them to suffer. If they have really suffered and are willing to change then they would because gambling addiction is bad and it is always advised to gamble responsibly.

Gambling addiction is being discouraged and just because a person hears stories of someone else wins doesn’t guarantee he is also going to win as well so no matter what we hear about others we should not try to think about it too much because gambling will continue draining you no matter how motivated you think you are.

What United is going through is a general problem so we shouldn’t blame it all on just a person. Onana is really not a bad keeper and if De gea was to be around the situation wouldn’t be different in my opinion, all that’s happening is the fault of the coach because it is not proper to send a player put just because they are performing badly or not performing to expectations just like he did with De gea and Ronaldo. They have given their best for the club in the past and these players deserve all the respect they can get it’s only proper for players to lose form when getting old so the coaches should back them up during such times but Ten Hag chose to disrespect them instead and it’s bad. Ten Hag is known to such behavior with players and it will always bring problems in the team, I believe these are the major issues that is causing the downfall of Manchester United.

What you need is dedication, self motivation and most importantly knowledge.

Trading requires knowledge and patience and only the strongest minded people succeed in trading. It takes more than just waking up and deciding to become a trader. You can achieve success if you are mentally prepared and committed towards achieving your goal as i believe that is the first step towards achieving success.

Why are most newbies only interested in the profit they will make from bitcoin investment. Investing in bitcoin can be profitable but also risky so you shouldn’t be blinded by the profit of it only and rather understand it’s concept so you know what you are getting into and the risk associated with it. Understand Bitcoin is not a get rich quick scheme and you need to first acquire basic knowledge at least before investing any amount into it.

You are directed to right place where you gain bitcoin knowledge for free and anything you need to know about bitcoin will de shared with you. You need to understand that in cryptocurrency you don’t just invest in any project because someone told you to do so, crypto market can be deceiving so you need to carry out research on your own and decide when to invest and what project to invest in. Of all cryptocurrencies Bitcoin is the best, safest and most reliable to invest in and it wouldn’t matter when you invest because of its high potential to rise in price but you should also expect the opposite.

$500 is not a bad start but you can accumulate more with time and I hope what you intend to invest is an amount you can afford to lose and hope you intend to hold for a long period of time. Profit isn’t certain but investing for a long period will certainly yield profits so have it in mind that your $500 investment is an amount you don’t have any plan of using any time soon.

It is better you learn and understand about bitcoin yourself and understand the concept of bitcoin wallet and its security because no one can be trusted especially when money is involved. If you let him create a wallet for you and buy you bitcoin then it means he will have access to your private key and your wallet and as such he can access your wallet anytime and move your funds.

Always safeguard your private keys and it should be known to you alone and anyone you can trust with your assets.

Also don’t forget to read the rules of the forum here so you don’t break any rules and get penalized.

Here are some links that will give you better understanding about bitcoin, bitcoin wallet and its security.

It is my club also and i just hate the fact that their performance is not consistent and it seems more like the performance is depreciating with time. We have so many good players but i will put the blame on the coach for not utilizing them properly and bringing out the best in them. If a team is performing well the coach will take the credit and it should be the same when they are not performing well the coach should take the blame. Which this players another coach could be in the top 4 race even if they are not challenging for the trophy yet. Compared to Liverpool and Aston Villa i believe we have more quality players than them but the coach is being able to manage them properly thats why they are performing better. Pochettino needs to do better and raise his standards if he really wants to stay long.

It will be difficult for them now to become champions they are really not playing to the standard of last season though I wouldn’t say it is down to injuries because most teams have some players injured as well and it should be the coach’s responsibility to manage whatever players that he has available. Guadiola is a coach know to be able to manage his team properly no matter the situation but i think this time he has failed to do so and the sale of some players last summer also has a bit of impact on their recent performance. I believe he would make the best of this January transfer to add more squad depth to the team.

Only the miracle of God can get a person out of this kinda situation unhurt.

These are 3 deadly animals which no one will ever want to have an encounter with. You can’t out run a lion on land and you can’t out swim a crocodile as well so I don’t think any of those is an option but coming up with a possible solution, it won’t guarantee you escaping unharmed but it is worth a try, i think what i would do is to attempt to fight the snake with my legs which obviously I would get bitten but with the intention of forcing it to fall down, if the snake falls then the snake and the lion will get into a fight which will distract them for a while and give you an opportunity to make a run a for it.

I know my plan sounds ridiculous   but it could work out if God’s mercy is with you.

There is no fun in losing at all and it’s not just in gambling but in everything man does but this perception will vary between people because there are those who are not fixated on their wins. Some see gambling as a profit making game while some see it as a game for fun but even at that when you lose there more often there will be no fun at all.

When I gamble I always assume my money is gone already even though I expect a win from my prediction and i don’t feel bad about losing because I expect a loss just as much as i expect a win so in that context i will say I gamble for fun but if i really want to have fun while spending money they are other things i will rather opt for than to gamble. Losing money in gambling is not fun but it still depends on how the person takes it.

Same here, whenever i try to invest in promising projects things doesn’t go so well, i guess i am not so lucky with alts but probably because i have not witnessed a bull run before. I told myself i am done with alts for some time now and i have channeled my energy into investing in bitcoin now as these alts have no stability.

I also prefer to hold bitcoin rather than diversifying my portfolio and investing in so called promising projects that will only last for a few years or probably not last that long. We have seen how alts behave and how some of them become dead projects over time, it shows they can’t be compared to bitcoin because their future is not certain so it’s wiser to hold bitcoin.

What i dislike more about alts is the fact that it is difficult to determine legitimate projects and one without the knowledge to identify scam is always prone to invest in scam tokens especially as bull run approaches. One needs to be cautious investing in alts.

All leagues in the world are good and each have their separate fan so condemning a certain league is wrong. To some premier league is the best league due to a certain reason probably because of it’s competitive nature and also there are those who believe La liga is the best league probably because they play more possession game than other leagues and there is you who believe Saudi league is the best because Ronaldo plays there and he has influenced other top players to play there as well but if you think Saudi league is the best league because Ronaldo plays there then does that mean you have had 4 different best leagues in the verge of 6 years because Ronaldo have played in 4 different countries Spain, Italy, England and Saudi.

The premier league is the most competitive league and i love it for that reason so IMO i will choose the Premier league over any other league but that doesn’t mean I should start criticizing other leagues.

It now 2 goals for Liverpool after Elliot added a second and it now seems like Liverpool are comfortable and looks as if they have secured the match. Ohh i think the goal was just disallowed for offside they should be comfortable but it seems there is still a lead to protect. They now sit on top of the table with two points ahead of Gunners. If Arsenal wins tomorrow everything will be back to normal and Arsenal will be leading with a point.

The match is not over yet, Liverpool need not relax if they want to win because we have seem teams pull off late goals in the premier League so Liverpool need to be careful and add a security goal.

It sounds so easy to say but it won’t be easy to get all maximum points because not long ago Bayern Munich lost to Frankfurt on a high goal margin of 5-1 which was unexpected. Leverkusen will definitely drop points sooner or later but it will be up to Bayern Munich not to lose any more matches if they want to close the gap but that will be so difficult considering their inconsistent performance. Playing a game less means they will be one points behind if they eventually win the match and it will make the title challenge more intense.

Leverkusen looks like a team that can keep the fire burning but we can’t be so sure yet as we not sure what the outcome will be when injuries hit their key players.

I also believe he doesn’t understand his players that well and that must be the reason why he keeps changing line up every game, he doesn’t have trust in his players and it’s why he keeps rotating players. By now he should have picked and appointed certain players to certain positions and put trust in them even when they don’t perform well, that’s how to get the best from players but he will start Mudryk today and bench him the next game, he would start Colwill today and bench him the next, it doesn’t bring out the best in players. As a coach tou should have your favorite players that starts games for you if they are available that way they will get used to each other and understand one another perfectly and the team spirit will be strongly boosted. This is the premier league and if you show any sign of inconsistency teams will take advantage of that and it’s the reason why coaches are expected to adapt easily.

It’s all mere predictions and it due to United’s poor performance recently, i also think Aston Villa are the favorites to win since Manchester United are very poor when playing at Old Trafford. Aston Villa are good enough to win the match but Manchester United can surprise us which is something not likely though. No team always want to lose and despite United losing their last match I can’t risk my money on them because they lack a good attacking force and that’s what results to winning matches.

To put it simply, Bitcoin is a decentralised digital currency that is not controlled by any one entity, including authorities or central banks. It provides users with financial autonomy and serves as a substitute for payment. To further understand it i would recommend these website/book as starting point

Investing in bitcoin doesn’t necessarily mean you should buy a full bitcoin before investing in it, you can buy bitcoin gradually and accumulate bitcoin bit by bit and before you know you would have accumulated enough bitcoin. Majority of people don’t have such amount to buy bitcoin but they are able to own a fraction of it by adopting a strategy known as the DCA strategy, this strategy makes it possible for the less privileged who can’t afford a full bitcoin to accumulate BTC by investing an amount they can afford gradually and after a while they are able to own a reasonable amount of bitcoin so it doesn’t matter how much you start with all that matters is that you keep accumulating.

Investing $2k into bitcoin is not a bad way to start as there are lots of people who don’t hold that much bitcoin, ig is a small amount but you can as well adopt the DCA strategy and keep accumulating more bitcoin at your own convenience and in no time you would have amassed enough bitcoins. With the upcoming bullish market by the corner bitcoin will provide lots of opportunities and we could see even higher price during this time so you should invest when you have the chance so you don’t risk investing at a higher price.

No one knows what really the problem is but i know Xavi is not a bad coach and compared to past coaches he is far better them and have shown significant improvement in the team. Not sure where the problem lies this season because they added a few talent to their squad like Felix and Cancelo but it seems those two can’t really help out much, i get surprised how they were excellent last season and went on to win the La Liga title and this season they are struggling to win matches when they are supposed to be challenging for the title.

This season is not a good season for them but that is football, at times things are bad and while sometimes things are good so i think we should bear with them and exercise patience and hope for a change before the season ends or next season.

It all depends on the investor, before investing one needs to have a well drafted plan of what to do in any situation  that comes his/her way because we are all aware of the market behavior of cryptocurrency and the volatile nature of it. Altcoins can be profitable but despite that only the smart ones can make profit from them because it is not about investing but how you manage your gains. We should always always have a plan of taking out profits or taking our capital after amassing a certain percentage of profits.

It depends on every individual, we all have our differences and separate views but as for me I won’t wait till 5x before taking profits.

Altscoins are not so reliable even though they can be profitable that’s why it is important to carry out proper research on any alts we plan to invest in because in a short period they can lose so much value. I don’t believe so much in alts but i have eyes for few alts and I intend to take profits at certain intervals during the bull market.

It seems you are unaware of bitcoin and cryptocurrencies development over the years and it baffles me that there are still few people who don’t believe in bitcoin. Bitcoin have survived despite being kicked against and the negativity shown to it by the government, all this proves how strong bitcoin is to withstand negativity. Over the years since bitcoin’s existence it have always progressed positively and till date it’s still progressing, nothing can be achieved overnight especially when you have the entire Government against you so it is a gradual process something and gradually bitcoin will be accepted generally.

Years back no country was in support but after understanding its concept and the advantages that it offers several contries have now accepted it and in a few years more countries will do so until it is generally accepted Globally.

Is it possible to beat paper money? Understand nothing is impossible with bitcoin and until everyone fully understands it concept bitcoin will keep growing. Before the introduction of paper money there were other means of payment before and paper money came in and beat them all despite having so many flaws which bitcoin have solved perfectly so it is only a matter of time.

I agree that it will be difficult to end Bayern Munich dominance in the Bundesliga but certainly sooner or later there will come a team that will put it to an end because if Dortmund was able to challenge to the last days of the league last season and again this season Bayern Leverkusen is already at it again then it means we are very close to witnessing the long lasting dominance come to an end. Beyern Munich have dominated for a while now and it’s high time start seeing challenges as it must have become boring for them over the years.

Bayern Leverkusen is playing so well currently and still cruising their unbeaten run, they style of play is what I admire so much and i will like to see them keep the fire burning till the end because they deserved it. Let’s see how far they can go the next phase of the league because most of these average teams always fail to keep up in the end.

Consistency is what matters and most of these average teams lack consistency in the long run but i just want to trust Xabi Alonso to achieve this feat and lead his team to victory. It will be a long second half of the season for them because Bayern Munich will try to put more pressure to stop them from winning the league.
