Man U and Bayern Munich lost their last games in the domestic leagues with big scores... By the way both results surprised me a lot, especially Bayern, who are in first place in the group... They don't need a win now and even if they lose, they will remain in first place... I think it will be an interesting match...
Of course it will be an interesting game even if Bayern have qualified for the next round already they wouldn’t want to lose a back to back match so their form doesn’t look bad. Manchester United will want to give it their all so they can secure a spot in the next round but if any of Galatasaray and Copenhagen wins their hope will be lost and they will have to go to the Europa if they are able to win Bayern Munich.

I doubt if Manchester United can win this match because Bayern Munich would not take it likely considering the loss in the previous match but we can’t say for sure who would win though. Manchester United have been poor playing at old trafford so they might find it challenging to win tonight.

I know it is not easy for teams who sack their managers, but if Manchester United sack Ten Hag I think it will be better for the the team especially after all this act he has displayed and his incompetence among other coaches.

When Manchester United sign Ten Hag, many people including me was happy because we all have been seeing what he is doing while coaching Ajax, not knowing that it is a small league, and Ajax has the best players in the league that year; although he can complains of lack of quality players in which he was given time and money sign his desired players which he signed some that seems not to be useful for the team.

If he is sacked, they can have coaches that can do better with the players Man United have.

You have a point man, even if Ten hag is given 5 years i don’t think he will accomplish anything with the club. Manchester United have some quality players but the coach is among the problems they have at the club, Ten Hag is an average team coach if you ask me and the inconsistent performance proves that he is not up to the task to take them to greater heights.

With Ajax style right from time i think they will even me can stand as their coach because of the nature of the league and Ajax have always been one of the dominating teams in the league. There are coaches that will do better with the players at Manchester United and if Ten Hag is not sacked they will continue to be an average team.

Loved the game but if Al-Nassr could do a little bit better I could have seen something better. Al-Nassr team may not have expected Al-Nassr team to perform so badly. But those who bet against Al-Nassr team won the bet.  Al-Hilal team performed very well for which they won the match very easily.Al-Hilal team's goalkeeper has been able to go so far to perform very well.
The game against Al Hilal was one of Al Nassr’s worst performances so far this season, they were out played by Al Hilal and they deserved to lose because they didn’t put in much effort. I expected to see a crazy score line like 3-2, 4-4 or even a goalless draw but Al Nassr failed to give back a matching performance. Now it will very difficult for Al Nassr to close down the gap between them and Al Hilal so in my opinion i think they have lost the league already but it is still too early to conclude.

What the amazing from Cristiano Ronaldo, although he age over 39 years old finally Cristiano Ronaldo scored his 50th goals in 2023 after one additional goal last match against Al-Sahabab on King Cup Championship  and Al Nassr won over 2-5. Its amazing achievement for Cristiano Ronaldo due he was over 38 years old but keep on the top level and success raised more than 50 goals in one season. Actually has opportunity for Cristiano Ronaldo make over his 50th goals in one year with three matches left before 2023 over, Al-Nassr have three matches left later and I sure Cristiano Ronaldo won't stop his goals achievement in one season on 50 goals but potential for him close until 60 goals in one season.
It is great achievement for a player whom they think was the problem at Manchester United. Ronaldo just seem to surprise us all when we are about to give up on him and when people start’s criticizing him he always proves them wrong. At his age this is not a small achievement even though some would say he is playing in the saudi league bug the fact is he really out of this world.

With three matches left to the end of the year he might look to even increase his goals scored for the year but i doubt if he can actually take to 60 goals scored for the year. Most of this matches are not easy matches so it might be a bit difficult for him to score 2 or more goals.

The moral of the story is that they are blocking money that is yours, which means that the money we have in the bank is less ours than we think.
That’s my major problem I have with the banking system, the centralization is killing and that’s why we need financial freedom so we can do what pleases us with our money. I dislike the fact that they try to control the way we spend our money and limit us to some certain things which makes me wonder if the money is really ours.
 
Since most countries don’t support the use of cryptocurrency i think the safest way to purchase a coin is to avoid direct purchases from your bank using bank cards or any payment method that involves transaction from your bank and use P2P transaction to purchase your bitcoin. P2p option allows you to exchange assets (make a trade) with other people while transferring money to their accounts directly without involving any crypto related terms in the transaction. This way it is difficult for banks to detect if the transaction is related to cryptocurrency.

Mixers have minimum amount of coins that they can mix. If you do not send up to that minimum amount for mixing, it would be considered as donation.

The minimum deposit can be 0.002 BTC.

Can you let us know the amount of the coin that you sent for mixing, and the name of the mixer?
From his post it seems he didn’t meet up with the minimum amount and his coins were considered as a donation as just as you mentioned. He even contacted them regarding his issue and he was told his deposit was not up to the minimum required amount.

He obviously didn’t read about the platform before making use of their services which is a very bad habit. It is like a rule and there is no excuse for not knowing about it, they believe you should read about their services and how they operate before making use of their platform.

I don’t think you were scammed OP, you lost your coins because of your carelessness and i am sure you must have learned your lesson now so next time before making use of any platform you should carry out proper research about them.

But if you were to be scammed as you claimed you should make the name of the company known to everyone and also a clear proof so they can confirm the authenticity of your claims.

The safest cryptocurrency wallet is an air-gapped hardware wallet, but its drawback is that it requires technical expertise to use, making it unsuitable for novices looking for a simple wallet that isn't too advanced for them.

Hardware wallets are protected from online attacks when they are not connected to an internet-connected computer, however even though they are the safest wallet, they can still be physically attacked. One way that hardware wallets can be compromised is if someone receives a phoney hardware wallet with flaws that allow hackers to access your wallet and private key.

1. Cord connection: data can still be transmitted when connecting the hardware wallet to your PC.

There are some measures to be taken to protect air gapped hardware wallet from attacks else it can get compromise. Air gapped Hardware wallets are designed for offline purposes and are not meant to be connected to an online computer. Connecting to an online computer/network is so risky that it is even advised to always use a phone USB charger to power it up and not use an online USB connection to power it up so it doesn’t get exposed.

4. You still have to rely on the company for future safetiness of the hardware wallet in terms of software updates, if someone hackers find a way to alter the upcoming update file you know what could happen.

This is a major concern as well since it is very possible to receive a fake hardware wallet or receive a wallet that contains malware from a wrong company Despite being the safest wallet option we still need to put into consideration some security measures so we don’t risk losing our assets or private keys.

Cryptocurrency in general is very risky because we make use of wallets that are being designed and developed by other people and the majority of us lack knowledge about programming and software development but we still trust and use wallets designed by others. There is no guarantee in crypto but it is always worth the risk.
647  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which one you are good at? on: December 11, 2023, 08:10:03 AM

So, the question is... Which are you better at: selecting the right bet or managing your bankroll?

And, how has it been going so far? Are you profitable or not, and why?
When I started gambling i didn’t know so much about it and i didn’t know the capabilities of most clubs especially smaller clubs that I don’t get to watch. Sports betting was my favorite betting game but uptil now i still find it difficult to select the right bet, i only win once in a while maybe after like 7 trials.

But i know one thing i am very good at is managing my bankroll, i am so good at controlling my emotions that i only use what i dedicate for gambling no matter the outcome and when i win i immediately withdraw all my winnings and make deposit for the next time. When it gets to my funds i don’t let greed get the best of me but in selecting the right bet i sometimes get greedy for odds and it affects my winning rates.

Im wary of Joao Felix's performance and fit with Barcelona. His inconsistency worries me, although hes had brilliance moments. Have you forgotten his Chelsea days? No big news. I doubt its worth it because Barcelona may have to spend at least €80 million to seal the transaction.

Felix suits Xavi's style, thus he likes him tactically. Felix's performance at Barcelona has been poor - hes scored two goals in twelve appearances. That doesnt justify spending so much, especially considering Barcelona is struggling financially. Because they're in trouble, every investment must pay off large, and Felix may not be a safe bet. He may prove himself with time and experience, but its risky today.
Joao Felix is a very good player and you can’t blame a teams failure on just a player, it is down to the coach and every coaching staff out there. Joao Felix days at Chelsea was not a bad one, no big news doesn’t mean he underperformed, everyone knew how Chelsea struggled last season and how every player was not in their best form but regardless Joao Felix was still the best Chelsea attacker despite joining at half season. His impact was deeply felt but it was just unfortunate that Pochettino said he wasn’t part of his plans.

You know Felix is not that much of a goal scorer but he surely will cause commotion in the opposition defense line and make good contributions in the team. All i can say is Barca should try to bargain for a lowering price and secure him permanently.
649  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: December 10, 2023, 10:14:45 PM
Chelsea are really not doing anything to show that their performance is some how improving gradually, they play without any means of making opposition beg to have the ball, but in this case is just a 50/50 for both sides. The backline of Chelsea is very solid with Cucurella Disasi and Colwill on the mix, but I can't seem to understand why James have to always come on to make the defense line weak, he has completely lost form.
The Chelsea boss need to permanently drop the England right back for good because he's only making the team to be under pressure for no reason. Let's see how they'll play on the second half if the visitors would get a goal.
You can’t blame Reece James, bro just recovered from injury and we all know how difficult it is to recover form knee injury that almost required him to go for a surgery which he refused so he needs to manage himself properly so he doesn’t get himself injured again. I respect james and i know his drop of form is due yo the injury and after a while he will fully recover and get back to his best form. James is a positive and solid player, don’t forget how he pocketed Doku in the match against Manchester City, he is the best right back we have got and I know it’s the effect of the injury because almost every player struggles when they return from injury.

Chelsea have lost their confidence and rhythm and they need to improve as soon as possible else they may find themselves in the relegation zone.

OP there is no need creating a new thread for the predictions of this matches because there are several threads where people’s opinions regarding match predictions are discussed so kindly lock up this thread and make predictions on the appropriate thread.

You have been around for a while and you have even made some replies on the La liga prediction thread so you must be aware of similar predictions threads already. If everyone was to create a new thread for every match then the gambling discussion board must have been over flooded by now so it’s good to keep the board clean and not make irrelevant threads that will flood the board.

Aston Villa is certainly in the conversation for the Premier League race
Beat Arsenal and the champions Manchester City, 15 home wins in a row, 3rd  and 2 points off the top. Villa is riding on the crest of a wave at the moment.

But It wasn't a bad game by Arsenal. I think they were a bit intimidated because the coach wasn’t there. Normally they wouldn't let such an easy goal in.
Overall, It was an amazing game. Arsenal at least deserved a goal.

They are a competitive team also and we all know it is not easy for a team like Aston Villa to be in the top 3 in the Premier league so they have put in a good work and the result have proven to us how hard they have worked. Winning Arsenal and Manchester City in a row is really something to talk about, and going just 2 points behind league leaders means they are also among the title contenders this season.

Aston Villa cannot be underestimated anymore but I don’t think they can challenge for the league because they are not so consistent in winning against smaller teams and that could cost them in the long run because consistency is all that matters to challenge for the league.

I think the result of this match would have been different if Crystal Palace had not received a red card. Liverpool did dominate the game but they struggled to create opportunities. The situation started to change after the red card because automatically this will definitely affect the mentality of the Crystal Palace players, while on the other hand, this is an advantage for Liverpool.
Definitely would have been a different outcome if Ayew wasn’t show a second yellow card and that was what Liverpool capitalized on, they got an equalizing goal just after the red card was shown. Crystal palace immediately got demoralized and it affected their performance and they couldn’t just hold on and Liverpool took the lead at the extra minutes. Since the start of the season Liverpool has been lucky to comeback from behind after conceding first and it’s as if they are good at comebacks. Liverpool are currently top of the table but if Arsenal wins Aston Villa they will fall back to second position.

That is just how bitcoin is and those who don’t understand it concept will lose a lot of money when Bitcoin prices dumps. We have noticed such trends in the past and bitcoin price still bounced back so i see no reason why we should panic sell during such downturn.

Patience is virtue so we should learn to control our emotions when bitcoin is going down because it will always pay off and also understand that the price will not always go up so we should always expect a downturn.

656  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Looking forward to invest on: December 09, 2023, 08:58:43 AM
I want to make an investment with just $50 as a beginner i don't know which coin am i to start with but i heard been hearing a lot of people both physically and on social networks saying incredible things about (BTC), that is the best. please i need your assistance ??
$50 for an investment is not a big amount though i know that in some countries it is quite big enough for ordinary people to invest. I believe this decision should be made by you yourself even though a lot of people will advise you on the best investment based on their opinions but the best thing to do is to carry out research on your own despite people’s recommendations, you should refer to them as a guide. In cryptocurrency you should not invest in a coin just because someone recommended them to you and also don’t invest due to FOMO.

Generally bitcoin is the best reliable cryptocurrency to invest in but from your capital of $50 it will be difficult to make a reasonable profit even if bitcoin price doubles or move x3. Advising you towards altcoin investment is even more risky for you as a newbie, it will be difficult for you to be able to identify legitimate projects because altcoin investments requires proper research as people get scammed easily from investing in altcoins but investing in alts will be more profitable than investing in bitcoin with your little amount of capital.

Preferably i will advise you to opt for bitcoin as a newbie because it possesses less risk than altcoins but you will need to accumulate more than just $50 worth of bitcoin if you really want to profit enough. There is no need to worry about having enough capital, you can easily accumulate more using DCA strategy by setting aside a percentage from your earnings on a weekly or monthly basis. By doing so gradually your bitcoin portfolio will grow and you will realize a reasonable profit with time.

This is fantastic news! I have been keeping an eye on your previous thread for any updates on the movement you have chosen to start. We value your efforts and hope that this development will lead to more advancements in bitcoin around the nation, not just in Niger State. In order to evaluate public opinion, it would be wonderful to see a headline about this plan that details how the Niger state government is approaching it.

If the Niger State government approves bitcoin even if it isn't yet officially allowed in the nation, won't it cause problems or confusion? Does this imply that Niger State residents will be the only ones able to freely adopt Bitcoin?
658  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: What should new cryptocurrency users do first?🙏🙏🙏 on: December 08, 2023, 11:43:09 AM
I want to know to all you big cryptocurrency users if someone who is new to cryptocurrency wants to learn about cryptocurrency then what should he know first, the reason for saying this is because many new crypto currency users come to cryptocurrency and don't know anything. 

That’s right, a lot of people just come into cryptocurrency without having any knowledge about cryptocurrency, some of them actually joins crypto because of the stories they hear about people making money from cryptocurrency, they just think they can also earn from it by just investing without carrying out research or knowing anything about it.

Firstly, a person new to cryptocurrency should understand the risks associated with it and that it is not a get rich quick scheme because that is what new investors think of cryptocurrency. Due to the volatile nature of cryptocurrencies profit is not always certain and it has a 50/50 chance of either profit or loss. To be successful in crypto one needs to understand it to some extent and be able to apply those knowledge in order to be successful. People new to cryptocurrency should first and foremost seek for knowledge before investing any amount in crypto and also they should only invest an amount they they can afford to lose.

How to protect their wallets and assets against frauds should also be taken into account, as this is one of the biggest risks that novices in the cryptocurrency space face in their early days. There are several threads on this forum discussing how to protect ourselves from scam attacks; if you browse around, you can find some useful information.

By investing in cryptocurrency without understanding, they are losing all their property, so if you who are experts would say that before investing in cryptocurrency

This happens a lot but sometimes learning the hard way is the best way to learn. No one in their right senses will indulge in anything without having knowledge about it so investing without knowledge and losing their money will teach them a lot, it will teach them not to rush into things they are not knowledgeable about. I will cost them nothing to ask experts for guidance on the basic concepts of cryptocurrency and how to embark on their crypto journey.

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag is said to be open for offers coming to Casemiro, Sancho and Varane.

I understand the Sancho situation because he can't find middle way with the manager so he is expected to leave as soon as possible. But I don't know whether they really need to part ways with the other two players I said. It is true that both of them don't play like in the past. But they are still qualified players who can improve their performances in time. If they send both of them they had better find really solid alternatives.
I hope they have a replacement for this players because if they don’t they will regret it and it may leave a void in the team especially when injuries start heating up. Sancho need ls to leave as soon as possible for his own sake because he find it difficult to earn the coach’s trust again after showing signs of disrespect but i also feel Casemiro has a part to play in the team but if they should have a replacement that will seem like an upgrade then it is fine. Ten Hag just needs to be careful with his decisions of letting these players go because if they fail to find a better replacement then they may regret it in the future.

I hope Sancho finds a better that will appreciate his performance because since he joined Manchester United he has been struggling to perform for the club and some fans even go on to say he is a flop and a waste of money. Adapting to a new club is difficult especially when the fans don’t have belief in you and don’t have patience. I think it will be best for him to leave and find a better team.

I didn't aspect that Manchester United would defeat Chelsea, To be honest they did a fantastic job in yesterday's match. This demonstrates how Manchester United's play has improved. Manchester United deserves to win because of the effort they put into pressing Chelsea yesterday. Chelsea try to play better in the second half; otherwise, they struggle throughout the first half of the encounter. Manchester United has extend  Chelsea rent to 10th position.
No one expected Manchester united to win the match, everyone predicted that Chelsea was going to win because of the fantastic performance they have demonstrated against stronger opponents. Manchester united have been struggling with form but when they faced Chelsea they seemed more serious and they performed better than Chelsea in the match, they deserved to win because Chelsea was so terrible and made so many mistakes as if they haven't trained in a month.

I now believe Chelsea is a team that only perform better against tough opponents but can not get their selves to beat average teams. Manchester united is a struggling team maybe that was why they were able to beat Chelsea. Chelsea have a long way to go and and if they keep playing like this they could get relegated.
