641  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Michael Jordan a gambling addict ? on: December 21, 2023, 03:40:06 PM
MJ can be called a gambling addict because he has been playing gambling since he was very young, from his high school years until he became famous, his betting value has also been increasing over time.
He's also had some gambling problems, but it's all resolved.  If he wasn't addicted, he might have stopped gambling after having problems with gambling. Luckily he's a professional basketball player and has a good busines so he gets a lot of money.*

*

That's what he has and he is different because he has lots of money to waste and gambling for them is just a habit and for killing time. Just like other billionaires, they don't have any problem every time they lose some big money because they can easily get it back but that doesn't mean it's ok to be reckless like that. Everyone should be aware of his actions on where they will gonna bring them because every person has different capabilities and one cannot take another person's habit as his one because most of the time he lacks the resources and the necessary mindset to recover his lifestyle.

We should really take care of them because they are weak in terms of their emotions and most of the time they are not physically strong too. Some other men are wasting their chance to take good care of their women while others are dreaming of having those girls to take care of. on the other hand, women who didn't get the opportunity to get married are the loneliest and often have high tempers because of their life experiences. nevertheless, men should consider not hurting them in any way shape, or form especially those who are close to them, and when they are hurt by their words, they should not act recklessly by using their fists but instead try to understand them and just leave for a while. those women when they have their period are sensitive, so it's upon us to understand them every time.
643  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Goverment try to take advange over instabilty in prices of stable coins on: December 21, 2023, 02:34:08 PM

And on taking a stable coin as a long-term investment,  it is a bad idea because its value is already pegged which means it can't increase beyond a certain limit, so what makes stablecoins different from keeping your money in the bank, is both a theme in operations and outcome.

Instead of stablecoins, they can go with bitcoins for assurance and they just need to buy it when the price is low because they will have a chance to increase their money and at the same time they will also make it more secure and don't need to worry about getting block or freeze by the government or the owners of stablecoins. Yes! the chance to get his money frozen by the owners of the stablecoins whenever they see some animality and involvement in hacking or something like that.

I think they are just making the deal because of how much the fans wanted to see it but this won't be easily happening because Green is not a fighter and he does his thing whenever his victims are in the blind spot. He cannot do that against Jake Paul, though I want to see him get beaten, he wouldn't sacrifice his career just because of the offer but let's see how this one will end up.
645  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoins and other cryptos will never become mainstream before... on: December 21, 2023, 01:40:27 PM
Not all of the world's population needs to use Bitcoin, and if 5% of the population and 5% of companies use Bitcoin, I think we will reach an acceptable level of prediction such that there is no need to convert Bitcoin into dollars and the possibility of using it to make purchases for most needs due to the availability of the level of acceptance.

Just like any other currency right now still they are recognized as mainstream money like dollars and other top fiats that people use right now. Bitcoin will be like that in the future and people will gonna use it as one of the money they can freely convert to fiat or vice versa whenever they want. I hope I will see that kind of future throughout the world because we cannot just rely on banks in terms of securing our money, they need to let us do whatever we want with it especially when it comes to saving it ourselves in order to use it freely and bring it with us without anyone knowing about it.
646  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit gamble! Easy or Hard? Let's talk. on: December 20, 2023, 03:08:58 PM
But I think no matter how they are engaged if they realize what is going they will eventually change but the problem is its always too late, its only when they have lost everything the only time they will quit, but sometimes the other way around like what others are saying became more addicted, instead of quitting, but at the end of the day, it will come down to what are their priority in life.

They need to experience losing every means they have to play, especially money because it will come at the time when they have no longer money, they will realize how to earn it and they won't gonna waste it next time. But for the people who get the money easily or always find someone who can fund them on playing, they cannot easily quit and most likely they can recruit others to play with them as well. Quitting requires some positive observations into the future and when a person doesn't have any high aspirations, he often doesn't care about that.
647  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Finally I did it (I am happy to join). on: December 20, 2023, 02:21:10 PM
Congratulations on your first bitcoin purchase. It is not easy to invest so much in bitcoin amidst the nature of economic in the country. Procrastination have killed many peoples dream of investing in bitcoin and they up not buying at all and regretting why they didn’t buy early when the price was lower. With this amount you’ve invested, you don’t need to bother too much about investment again, this will give you a lot of profit at bull run. If you have more you can invest more but if it was me I will be contended for now with the investment done so far.

Yeah! others cannot get enough courage to make their first step into investing in bitcoins because they are scared to lose their money because of what they read on social media and some posts that are hostile against bitcoins. Most likely they were influenced by those others who have no money to invest to begin with and they are just talking negatively about bitcoins. that's why when it comes to this, you need to take your time do your own research, and step out there to do and get your first bitcoins.
648  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you have a "gambling problem" which you can sometimes control for years? on: December 20, 2023, 01:43:22 PM
I probably have some gambling problems, but they are not severe gambling problems. I think they are not badly needing any help from a professional. Little problems like when I say this is my last round but I ended up playing another couple of rounds. Or when I say when I lose this round I won't be betting again, but I ended up betting after a losing round. These are probably my gambling problems. But I am not feeling worried about them. They occur less often.

Others have worse traits where they cannot get out of the place of gambling as long as they have the means to play and mostly end up regretting because they didn't get out when they had the chance to do so. These kinds of people often cannot improve themselves to stop this kind of habit because they are just greedy and cannot help themselves. I often see people like this and they always have a high temper whenever they don't have any money to play.
649  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: When do you take out your investment when in profit? on: December 20, 2023, 01:11:10 PM
When it comes to altcoins, I usually take the profit along with selling all the altcoins I have once the price increases drastically like last time. Because if you don't do that, you won't really get another chance to see that price because many others also sell their altcoins and they won't hesitate to do it once they see it all green. I am one of them because I am not an extreme risk taker who might gonna wait for more days to sell it, as soon as I see that I managed to make a profit, I'm fine with that I don't care anymore whatever the outcome of my decision after that as long as I got my earnings.

Ja Morant is finally back and he did it with an awesome display of what he is capable of doing. In his return to the Grizzlies, Ja Morant led the way as they came back strong from 24 points down to beat the Pelicans, 115-113. What made the return more exceptional was when Morant made the buzzer shot to close the match.

That was an intense game earlier and to be able to finish it like that, he is really a phenomenon player. I'm glad he's doing the thing he should do because this is where he can inspire more kids to stay away from crimes and hate. It was a message that he is finally back and will gonna make his team a contender once again. He should be playing well like this for the rest of the season in order to get his team to at least in the play-in tournament and have a chance to pass that stage easily.
651  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can Bitcoin create an opportunity to reduce poverty? on: December 20, 2023, 12:06:17 PM
Yes it can help you to get out of poverty if you are intentional about it. Some while back used to be broke despite having monthly paid job till one of my younger brother introduced me to Bitcoin trading and since then I never lacked. This has help a great deal though Bitcoin teaching and acceptability has been free over the years many people are still afraid to invest because they have wrongly invested in other crypto and have lost all their monies but if they can bank on Bitcoin they might yet win again

Some other people are like you who used the opportunity to trade in the crypto market with their salaries and some others also made some huge steps where they aim for the future which is they took the right way by giving up their bad habits and converting the funds for that too but bitcoins and most of them became successful because bitcoins won't burn your money instead it multiplies and also preserved it. If they only take advantage of this opportunity to invest, they would have one of the people to rejoice today but unfortunately, most of them are still in doubt about it and the result is, that they don't get any change in their lives either.
652  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: NFTs worth millions of dollars were stolen just now on: December 19, 2023, 03:20:21 PM
Well, Hackers are all over the internet and they are just waiting for a good opportunity to penetrate their actions. They don't have any remorse for their victims because they look at them as their prey. That's why we really need to exert all efforts to secure our crypto assets in order to prevent this kind of scenario from happening to us. We need to keep ourselves updated because those hackers always come up with new strategies to fool people and they always make some new baits to lure their victims and make them believe they are still safe.

It is sad to see Tony Ferguson not be the same man as he once was. He is still a pretty good fighter. But he is not the fighter he was anymore. The age just got to him. He just had gave more than his 100% when he was younger. And now his body literally cannot take it anymore. I understand why Dana White said that it is disrespectful to talk about the retirement of Tony Ferguson. But at this point, it is about the health of that fighter. After all what we have seen, I think he is even ready to die in the ring. So we have to save him from himself.

Such as life man, sometimes we see them changing so fast even though they are not in the retiring years of their life as professional MMA fighters. But when they lose room for improvement and they are fighting with some good fighters that could actually easily beat them, that's when they get their losing streak because most of those fighters are taking their fight seriously and most of the time they have improved before stepping into the ring. therefore, it would be best for him not to go there anymore and look for another opportunity since he is still popular today anyway.
654  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Do NOT overpay your transaction fees. on: December 19, 2023, 01:45:37 PM
For us, that's a huge amount of money just to pay for transactions, I rather wait for longer than pay such a high amount of payment just to rush my transactions and that's why we need time management for this kind of scenario especially right now when the crypto market is congested and you cannot make an easy and fast transactions as usual, it's better to send it to exchanges as early as possible to avoid such scenarios and be ready for whatever transactions you want to do later.
655  Economy / Speculation / Re: A big buying opportunity might be on the horizon on: December 19, 2023, 01:14:41 PM
In the crypto market especially with bitcoins, this kind of FUD is nothing and they are considered no value for those who know how this crypto market works because of their experience for the past years. You really don't have this much issue if you don't really trust the process when it comes to bitcoins price because most of the time it really doesn't care what issue is going on currently in the world like how we saw it increase in the midst of the Pandemic and don't be like others who have lost their balls due to these FUDS because you are missing the opportunity to invest in this halving seasons which is the best time to invest in bitcoins.

^^ I think the media hates James Harden. Remember the video circulating online that telling James Harden is the problem and not the System.
Big win for the Clippers last game! 8 game win streak. These 4 All stars hopefully help and lead the team to their first championship. Great game for Harden, taking over the 4th quarter in just a few minutes. They've been up big already and I love their mentality now. I'm noticing their style with a barrage of offense from the 1st to the 3rd until Kawhi doesn't need to return in the 4th. Harden usually takes over as well as Powell and PG. Only injury will ruin again this momentum.

I really want to see them progress well and they might gonna get more wins after this because they are on fire and that won't be any problem for them right now their chemistry is high also they will gonna make it harder for their opponent to stop them at this rate. it only took them a few games to adjust and they managed to nail it well by observing what they were missing. I'm sure they are now a strong playoff team that will be considered a problem in the Western Conference.
657  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Craze for Meme coins never ends? on: December 19, 2023, 12:12:40 PM
This is just how lucky they are because some other people actually hit the jackpot when it comes to their investment in altcoins especially meme coins because they just simply took the risk and wanted to trust their instinct when it comes to their investment in those new meme coins. therefore, if you know how to manage yourself in your investment and you know which meme coins have the highest chance to have that successful story as well, you should not hesitate to invest with how much capital you have and leave it until it multiplies its price like that one.
658  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The future of Bitcoin as digital currency on: December 18, 2023, 02:41:26 PM
This is what I really like to see in the future but the government is exerting all effort to make it more like fiat where you cannot hide from anyone how much you really have because everything should be transparent in order to save yourself from them. Nowadays, they put pressure on some popular exchanges and they gonna faced serious consequences if they don't comply with their requirements or if they find out they have some issues that are worth bringing into the court. That's why we need to get back to the decentralized exchanges in order to have a safe financial revolution without worrying about the SEC and its allies.
659  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Jake Paul vs Andre August - December 15th in Florida on: December 18, 2023, 01:50:12 PM
Jake Paul made light work of this fight, easy KO in the 1st round.

He’s targeting a World Title according to Sky Sports - https://www.skysports.com/amp/boxing/news/12040/13031495/jake-paul-sets-sights-on-world-title-after-first-round-knockout-victory-over-andre-august-in-florida

It ends up quickly because they might cook a crucial strategy for his next fight because this is a chance to prove himself to fight a better fighter next time and this is a sign that he is really improving and can go for a challenging opponent if he really wants to. I don't think he will sell more fights against some unknown boxers a retired MMA fighter or a nobody like this one. But as long as they are getting much more profits from his fight, I don't think they change their way anytime soon.
660  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Is justice really blind? on: December 18, 2023, 01:21:02 PM
It’s almost impossible for someone to be found guilty of murder without finding the body but if with enough circumstantial evidence then the defendant could be found guilty

I’m not a lawyer nor i know anything much about the law but there’s a lot of cases where defendants are falsely accused yet they still serve time even if the crime wasn’t really done but this time around, it is clear that she had killed him so she will serve again but maybe with a lesser sentence

Mostly this happens in some corrupt countries where people without connections are considered nothing in the eyes of the government and once they are proven not to have anything to defend their cases, they will automatically face the consequences. In our country, many people have become victims of this kind of behavior by policemen, when they want to be promoted, they will simply choose random guys and arrest them, putting them in a situation where they cannot ask for any help. That's why all around the world, people are losing interest in trusting the police because many of them are still unfair.
