If Dem leave people with their choice of payment system go better pass all their restrictions. Person wey like fiat go go with that one. Since Dem even see say their restrictions dey recieve criticism from deir own people, most of this people suppose reverse their decision.

You dey talk because you no dey the system, if to say you dey their system you go follow dem dey fight Bitcoin adoption because of e go commot power from your hand. Government need control to govern because without control dem no get power over us. When we become our own bank we no go even dey reason anything wey the government dey talk because you dey control your own money. Make I use government work as example, when you dey work for government, you no go wan challenge dem because you know them get the power to terminate your work but as you dey work for yourself for online so, nothing d government go talk go make you fear, na so e just dey for fiats and Bitcoin.

I know say Bitcoin na volatile asset but that one no means say make people no fit decide waiting Dem like do.  Even d fiat, no be everyday e dey loose in value?.

A government is supposed to guide his people and dat one mean say dem go do wetin dem feel say dey right for you. If dem allow everybody do their mind den dem no go get a progressive government. Leave d volatility problem, dat one self no be enough reason to ban Bitcoin or no allow people to use dem but dem know say if dem give us any small chance dem go lose power (control) Nigerians no dey waste time dominate things and if to say Bitcoin was legal in the country we fir get more adoption than dis wey for worry the corrupt ways of the government and na wetin dem no want be dat.

One very ogbonge example na BVN number. If you ask many people to give you their BVN number, dem go bring out their phone begin dey find am for either their contact list wey dem save am, or for gallery where dem snap am, make dem fit give you the number. Although the thing dey handy, e nor too go well.

For this country, the easiest way to steal anything wey you wan steal from the average Nigerian, na to carry their phone, we dey so less security cautious for this country if not why people dey fall for some stupid scam calls wey no just make sense when you hear am. Many things are been stored carelessly on phones, laptop or jotter wey dey for house. Go their emails and you go see all sorts of vital part of information been exposed to anybody wey wan scam dem. We dey very far for security or privacy matters and thank God threads like dis are been written frequently as e go help to remind ourselves of the risk of not been security cautious.

Quote
MAke we nor follow dey go make that mistake oooo, Do not save your private keys on your phone either for Notes or for Gallery. Crimanals dey smart well well, you need to get sense too to follow dem up.

Many ways dey to store your private key wey go dey very secure and in all this ways make sure you no store for any device wey dey connected to the internet. Infact any device wey you dey use frequently no supposed get your private key or seed phrase information. Use any of this ways as dem go secure your keys well and dem no too cost to do dem.
  • USB drives: Buy USB from better and reliable seller and make sure na new one and store your private keys inside, you need encrypt am so e no go easy for anybody wey mistakenly get your USD and wan access the information wey dey inside.
  • Paper Wallets: Print out your private keys or seed phrase information and store am for your house like for vault wey only you go get access to. Or you fit no print all for one paper but for different papers just to make am hard for anybody to comprehend wetin dey written there and you laminate the paper and store dem for different secured location for your house.

Yet I just sit down like say na my own worse pass cuz I no get money. And finally u go hear.... "General offering time". Na only there u go see me stand for offering.

That's a business and not a church, just because majority of the churches dey do am no mean say e dey right and na so church suppose dey. You're in a wrong church if you're experiencing this constantly, change church and go to a church that isn't after your pocket but want your soul. The problem with this  Nigeria na say many churches for here na business because na only business dey do this kind thing. Churches dey wey genuine but because dem no dey do miracle, we no go gree go worship. We wan worship those one wey go dey use fake miracles dey entertain us all in the name of serving God. Churches aren't meant to be business and they shoudn't be discriminating against the rich and the poor, for dat place we're all children of God and na so e supposed be.

Abeg make una share una church/religious lives experience. No be only related experience we expect here but also testimonies.

My church Seventh Days Adventist no dey do like dat and we dey worship on Saturday. Our offerings dey, dey coded and any donations dey mostly dey anonymous unless na the one to call names but pastors there no fit do this things wey you write so or dem fit dismiss you as a pastor of the church. Churches supposed be where we escape the reality of the world to come connect with God so discrimination or fundraising no supposed be wetin we dey see two four for church. Others churches dey wey no dey as OP dey describe so make we dey move go this other churches so the ones wey dey do all this things go change as dem begin dey lose members.
704  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will Bitcoin be accepted as a dominant currency in the future? on: September 30, 2023, 04:11:05 PM
It is captivating for us all to witness the evolution of a DDC (decentralized digital currency) that has the ability and potential to change the financial world forever but there is a question that needs to be tabled properly for the purpose of awareness and well preparedness for the future and that is "is it possible for BTC to be accepted and adopted as a dominant currency in the nearest future".

The possibilities are there but let it be known that even though it doesn't happen, that doesn't mean Bitcoin has failed because it was never the intention of Satoshi for Bitcoin to become a dominant currency. It was launched as an alternative to fiats and Bitcoin been adopted globally and been used for payment will achieved that goal. Bitcoin is still very young so we shouldn't be expecting it to achieve the dominant currency status any time soon. It'll take decades for that to happen but Bitcoin been recognize globally as a currency is imminent.

Quote
But then how can we ignore that bitcoins journey towards being dominant means of transactions Is faced with challenges such as concern on price volatility.

As Bitcoin gains more popularity and adoption, the volatility of the price will be reduced. It won't be completely stable but it won't be as volatile as it is currently. Also no currency is stable when they're trading against each other which is something we do when we buy or sell Bitcoin. 1 BTC will always be 1 BTC just as 1 $USD is 1 $USD. Currently Bitcoin value is been represented in fiats that's why we're seeing volatility in the price but when we start to value things in stats (Satoshi) there won't be volatility again. Instead of buying something for $10 worth of Bitcoin, we'll now be buying things in mbtc, stats or BTC without fiat value attachment.
705  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why is cryptocurrency illegal in some countries? on: September 30, 2023, 02:45:14 PM
In many countries, it isn't illegal, however the countries that have made it illegal do so for many reasons, volatility is one of the most often cited reasons, as is energy use, concerns over destabilization, or the ease with which criminals' activities can be financed and conducted using them.

Most countries haven't banned Bitcoin but have established an unfriendly environment for Bitcoin to grow in the country. The only reason I see why the government is banning Bitcoin is because Bitcoin is decentralized and they know they can't regulate or control it. All the other reasons they're giving is a lie as it doesn't have enough merit to ban Bitcoin. The excuse of Bitcoin been used by criminals and they can't be tracked is a lie because Bitcoin is operated on a public ledger that the government or anyone can have access to but fiats is the most used currency for crime and yet the government hasn't ban it for centuries. Bitcoin price been unstable isn't a weakness but an advantage for traders to take opportunity of the volatility of the price to make profits.

Quote
Forgetting the advantage of cryptocurrency which has over the years gained popularity amongst investors globally. With technological involvement and industrialization, digital currencies are obtaining a satisfactory position over others, for example, bitcoin. By using cryptocurrency it is easy to transfer money without any involvement of banks and other financial institutions

The government are threatened by this fact that their financial institutions (the banks) that they use to monitor their citizens are no longer important in finalizing a transaction. Transaction can now be done without needing a third party and the transaction are 10x faster than when banks are been used and there's no limitations. The government knows the potential of Bitcoin and that's why they're trying so hard for it not to succeed but they have failed before they already started because Bitcoin doesn't need the government approval to establish itself in the finance sector. It just newer time and adoption which can be gotten through awareness and all this will happen in the nearest future.
706  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Banking scams ...How are Bitcoin better? on: September 30, 2023, 01:17:54 PM
The scammers have figured out how to use that service to their advantage... by simply tapping it continuously (if it is not limited) and if it requires a pin... by watching you and following you after you have made a purchase. (They then take your card by force and physically tap it until your account are empty)

This isn't a problem of the banks but an issues of personal security because Bitcoin in your wallet isn't immune to hacks or been stolen when you don't take security measures to make sure you're not a victim of this type of crimes. Your Bitcoin can be stolen when you store them in your mobile device or also in your hardware wallets but you're constantly moving with the devices. You can become a target and they do all the things you mentioned that can be done to forcefully take your mobile phone or device from you which is why we have to be security cautious irrespective of using credit cards or Bitcoin.

Quote
So, I was thinking... How can Bitcoin be better? Can we find better solutions for these attacks and will these solutions still give us ease of use? (No complexity but still user-friendly)

Invest in Bitcoin and store your Bitcoin in way it'll be hard for hackers or thiefs to gain access to. Don't store your Bitcoin on your phone or work laptop that you use to go about your daily businesses because you can get moh/rub just as your credit card can be stolen and wipe out all the money you have. You can keep small amount of Bitcoin that you'll need often in a mobile or hot wallet but your main investment shoudn't be stored that way. Bitcoin is decentralized and gives you great power and anonymity but with great power comes great responsibility.
707  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin vs the government on: September 30, 2023, 12:58:00 PM
The government just want to be in charge of everything, from monitoring your transaction to knowing how much people are worth financially, but Bitcoin is becoming too powerful for them too handle, which to me is understandable, but to them it's a ugly reality. Financial power and control is returning back to the people, which is a welcome development.

That's how they stay in power, whoever controls the money has the power to control everything because much importance has been given to money (in their various forms) than any other thing. This is the reason the government don't what to recognize Bitcoin because when they do they'll be giving back power to the people and there'll be nothing else to control. The government are centralized so automatically they would hate anything that isn't centralized and they can't control but this system isn't going to last long any more because many people are becoming enlightened about the importance of having control of our finances and not depending on third party system like the banks.

Quote
The sweet reality is that Bitcoin is here too stay, if they ban Bitcoin the mass will rise up against them, so they are just looking for a way to contain the influence of Bitcoin and discredit it. To me Bitcoin is one of the best thing that has ever happened to finance because everyone loves privacy.

They can't ban Bitcoin to be specific because Bitcoin is decentralized and not centralized like fiats, they can only ban or regulate centralized service that are associated with the industry like centralized exchange, wallet providers and other services but if we stay away from those service and only use non custodial service like wallets and P2P exchange, we won't be having any difficulties enjoying the full benefits of the Bitcoin. With the current rate of awareness Bitcoin already has, if the government tries to ban Bitcoin, they'll be shooting themselves in the foot because it'll only create more publicity for Bitcoin and brings about more adoption of the currency globally.
708  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Invest in bitcoin and forget the investment on: September 30, 2023, 12:15:10 PM
I split my funds currently to different of coins expecting that if I don't make profit in any of the coins when bullrun comes I will surely make profit in bitcoin because bitcoin price now is no longer going downward or going upwards, but any move the price will make to go up the price will increase

There's no guarantee in altcoins investment as you can split your fund as much as you like and still lose in all the altcoins you invested into. Nobody knows the next altcoin that'll be pumped by whales for their selfish gains and later dumped as they have been doing whenever there's a bullish momentum in the market. It's better you don't have any altcoin Investment than putting your hopes on profiting from them as all investment in them should be consider as just a gamble (if you can't resist to invest in them). Put more money into your Bitcoin portfolio and keep increasing your stash. Just as you said, you can invest and take your mind off it but only do that when you have invested and taken your Bitcoin off exchange to stored in a secured hardware wallet or any other non custodial, open source recommended wallet.

Quote
I'm expecting the price of bitcoin to rise in 2025 and 2026 so any investment in bitcoin  should be expected till next two years or three years time. Summary, invest in bitcoin and forget about the investment and hope that you will make profit after some years coming.

These are all speculations as the past doesn't guarantee the future even when it comes to Bitcoin so we should Invest wisely, we should have the mindset that anything can happen. We expect the price to rise after the halving is completed but we shouldn't expect it to happen at a specific date or year as we might be disappointed (but very unlikely to happen). The only thing I can say is, the future of Bitcoin is going to have the price increase so our investment should be that for the future and not an immediate expectation of profit. A Bitcoin investor should have a long term mindset.

The problem is, I'm not sure Pochettino is capable of bringing Chelsea through to the Champions League next season. The team's performance is still poor and they always find it difficult to win game after game, so of course there are big doubts about Chelsea's chances of getting to the Champions League next season.

At the start of the season, I thought we could get the champions league spot easily and maybe compete for the title because we had no reason not to be able to achieve this things but from what I have seen so far, getting the champions league spot is going to be a big challenge again this season but it shouldn't have been the case. We didn't have any competition that will make us tired this season because we're only playing in the league competition and no European competition. The champion league spot should have been our achievement this year and if Pochettino can't get that, then he has failed in my eyes. How can't you get the champions league spot after spending over billions in the the transfer window. It'll be a big disappointment and Todd Boehly needs to evaluate everything that's happening in the club before Chelsea gets turned into a mid table club. We shouldn't finish this season below top 4.

If Pochettino could help his team archive the Europa this season, it would be a major win for the club. He really needs to get his boys to believe in what they can do and not just try. The team is basically one that comes to the pitch with hopes on what can be archived and not really believing they could actually come and take the win.

It won't be a win but better than not getting anything because Chelsea isn't a mid table team to be celebrating a Europa qualifications. We have won that competition twice and the last time we were there we won unbeaten so it isn't a competition that we'll be that excited, getting. We're a champion league team and the management need to do something immediately to get us back there. We have the quality in the team to win games but seems the managers is getting clueless on what to do or the owners aren't giving him enough freedom. I just hope things change so we don't have similar results like last season disappointment. Europa is a competition we'll win easily, we need to be among the big teams in champions league.

Al-Nasr won with goals from Ronaldo and Talisca. It was not an easy match. Although Ronaldo is 38 years old, there is no doubt that he continues his football career with the same seriousness in a disciplined manner, he is still in good shape and is still the savior of matches. Talisca continued where he left off from last week, scoring with a beautiful finish following a stylish assist from Cristiano Ronaldo.
Ronaldo could have scored more, even he was surprised by the goals he missed, and as a result, he won the match.

Ronaldo has been scoring like he's in his mid 20's, most strikers can't carry teams the way Ronaldo has been carrying all the teams he has played in and that's because of his determination to always win. Although his last goal was a penalty but still those aren't as easy as people think they're to score especially important ones that can win you a match. The pressure during this times get intense that you can miss the penalty if you're not a composed players. Ronaldo is now leading the highest goal scorer table with 10 goals this season. If he continues in this form, he might get more than 20 goals this season which will be okay to lead Al Nassr to a title winning season.

After losing first two games of the new season now Al Nassr having six games winning streak and this was one of the toughest win for them from these six wins because Al Taee done good job in second half and not allowed visitors to have anything good but Penalty which bring match winner for the Al Nassr give important win to them.

I didn't expect Al Taee to be this difficult to win considering the fact they're not in a good form but they gave Al Nassr a tough fight and even though they lost, they didn't lose facing down but had their head up because they gave their best to the match but luck was on Al Nassr side and Ronaldo been a master of penalty had to just score. If Al Taee can continue playing in the manner they did against Al Nassr, they can move up the table and save themselves another season in the Saudi Pro league. Al Taee were able to match Al Nassr shots on target which means they created similar chances to Al Nassr but it was just the penalty that gave Al Nassr the win.

it's not a serious problem for chelsea. Armando broja is fully recovering from his injury. My guess if armando broja will be playing as starting line up soon as jackson will be suspended due to the fourth yellog card that already received by him. Chelsea may need to use the same scheme but different striker. I hope that broja will able to perform so well compared with jackson which was always facing difficulty in making proper finishing.
Broja has been also playing against brighton and everything is still fine for chelsea as long as pochettino will not do stupid thing again.

Broja will come into the starting lineup as Jackson is absence and fit in very well, the only problem is that we don't know if he'll have the same end product as Jackson because they both have the same playing pattern although Broja is more physical than Jackson and won't get bullied out if balls as Jackson always get bullied by the opponent defenders. Broja didn't have much impact last season when he was been used as the striker. Pochettino needs to sign a new striker in January and not depend on this two because they're inexperienced. We need a striker with lots of experience so he can convert the chances that Chelsea has been creating. Ivan Toney who is Chelsea target for January will be a perfect fit for the position of an experience striker and he has proven himself in the premier league scoring 20 goals in 33 matches for Brentford last season.

If not much thing changes when Nkunku returns then Chelsea might need to sign another striker in January. But hopefully there won't be such need after Nkunku recovers. He is a really quality striker and I hope his end won't be like Werner at Chelsea.

Even If Nkunku returns and stays fit we'll still need a new striker because we can't put all our hopes on Broja and Jackson and we can't depend on players that aren't natural strikers to score. We need a prolific striker that knows the only reason we're signing him is to get us goals. The midfielder and wingers should be assisting him and his job is just to score even when they're just tap in. I doubt Nkunku fitness so it won't be bad if we go for Joao felix in January as a replacement for Nkunku and he can play in his role when he isn't fit and used as a replacement for mudrky when he isn't having a good run. We don't have backups in the team that can deliver us results, all we have are just experiments and not proven players which isn't what Chelsea need right now. We need players that can give us results.

"In order to be successful, you have to find out what makes you excited. What makes you wanna get up each morning and go to work? If you love what you do and dedicate yourself to your work, you will gain that momentum and each success will create another success. Never quit, never give up. Do something you love. When you do something that you love, you'll never fail. What you are going to do is give it a shot again and again and again. You're ultimately going to be successful." - Donald John Trum

I don't completely agree with the statement because you can do something you love buy still failed at it depending on what you're using to define success. If you're doing a business that you love but not making profits, you can't say you're having a successful business career because the thing use in judging a business is how successful the business is in revenue. In life you can either do what you love and get paid or love what you do that's paying you. Always find happiness in what is paying you so you don't lose interest in your job. It's okay to discomfort yourself for sometime to achieve money that you can use to set up a business for yourself or to chase the dreams you have for yourself. The path to success I know is to stay discipline in your field and you'll become successful at what you do.

Some say he's an Idiot but something he says sometimes makes sense. LOL. What do you think about it? Is it some way to manipulate people or that's the right thing to do?

I'm a big fan of Donald Trump but life works differently for different individuals so we don't have to limit our thinking to only one school of thought. You can do what you love or love what you do because not everyone will get the opportunity to do the work they love and you can't stand idol and let an opportunity to work a good paying jobs pass you by just because you don't love it. You need money to survive and to get money you have to work so it's understandable when you have to work with what you have available to you until a better opportunity comes along. Success can be achieved in different means so we don't have to think it can ba achieved by only doing what we love.

When I think of the few Bitcoin I have, it gives me joy.

For the past 2years I have been into cryptocurrency, I have come to understand that Bitcoin doesn't just give you value, it also gives you security, even last year February when i was just a few month old in experience, when the Ukraine Russian war drove down the price of Bitcoin to 15k most people lost hope. people where saying all sorts of discouraging word about Bitcoin and the crypto industry, I still have faith, and Bitcoin proves me right, he rallies back without remorse.

Among other cryptocurency existing, Bitcoin is the most trusted and securest to invest into because it has proven severely why it's the coin to depend on as you can be guarantee that your investment isn't going to be wasted unlike when you invest into altcoin that there future aren't guarantee as they mostly get pumped and dumped. Bitcoin has a four year price cycle as after every bear market, it's design to increase back in valued after Bitcoin halving so if when you invest during the bear season of the market, you can be guaranteed profits in the bullish season. Bitcoin price can't stay bearish forever as the price will always find its way back up after sometime of bearishness.

one of the best gift we can give to our children as inheritance is to accormulate as much Bitcoin as possible, because after now, the value will be priceless. Bitcoin is here too stay because it's the future of money

We're at the early stages of Bitcoin adoption and possible seeings the cheaper price one Bitcoin will be worth so now is the best time to accumulate bitcoin not just for ourselves but for our bloodline because in the future when Bitcoin will be more valuable and acceptable, it would be of great regret if we didn't Invest in Bitcoin as we missed out on a life time opportunity of profits, investing in Bitcoin will be giving in the future. Bitcoin is going to be around for a long time and will reward those who'll have patience to invest and hold.
714  Economy / Economics / Re: Early Retirement [Pros and Cons] on: September 29, 2023, 06:18:04 PM
as long as you can still make money, don't even think about retiring early, I know early retirement is everyone's dream but who knows what will happen next, you have to maintain your grades and productivity so that you stay healthy and respected by people.

Nobody should retire from making money but retiring from working is what the dream is. When you retire, you stop working actively for money but your money can always work for you until you die. It's smart to retire early and I don't see any problem with that provided you have made enough money to consider yourself to be financially free and to keep that status of been financially free, you have to make investment that generate money for you without you been actively present. Everyone desire an early retirement so they can spend time with their loves ones or do things they love but to enjoy that, we have to make use of our early days in service (working) to make investment that'll help use retire early.

If you're not yet financially stable (that you can't live without depending on steady salary) then there's no need to retire. Don't get pressured by those doing it because you don't have the same financial backing that they do. We need money to live comfortably and if you don't have the opportunity that others have to leave off money made from their investment then keep working until you have been able to save enough money for investment then you can retire. When you're financial set for life you won't see any Cons for retiring early but only Pros as it gives you more time to follow your dreams and explore the world from a different point of view.
715  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: September 29, 2023, 11:00:35 AM
Yes, the main problem is on the coach and Chelsea management. They decide to buy which players, it is their responsibility if they bring the wrong players on the squad. I still don't understand why Chelsea decided to hire Mauricio Pochettino. There is no something special with this coach, he is not the coach who has many good records. He only won the titles with PSG, it is easy because PSG is too superior in Ligue 1. But when he managed Tottenham and Southampton, he failed to win any title.

With Southampton, he has no chance of winning anything in the premier league because it was dominated by many giants back then that they have to shared the title with themselves because the likes of Manchester united, Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal were at the top of their game during the era he was at the club. With Tottenham he still didn't achieve any major trophy but didn't you see how he handled the club, keep them in the champions league conversation for many seasons with little invested into the club by the owners in buying players. Pochettino did very well at Tottenham with the limited resources he had and that's why he's still a good managers and Todd Boehly would had thought, if he added the money he has with Pochettino abilities (like he showed while at Tottenham), that he'll achieve greatest in Chelsea but the mistake that Todd Boehly is making is not giving the manager full control of the squad, They need to give him the ability to buy the players he want and sell those he isn't interested in working with.

I think there is instant expectation from both the fans and management of Chelsea from Pochettino personally I think this manager needed some time to rebuild the team I watched some of their matches there aren't playing badly and the fact that the squad comprised of young players is another advantage because in one or two more seasons the team would be formidable enough to make vie for Title and other trophies just like when Arteta was newly appointed as Arsenal manager it took him some period of tme to rebuild and reposition the club,

The difference between the two fans is that Chelsea fans are used to winning trophies but now we can't even win games so it's difficult to stay patient when we're seeing the club getting destroy with bad decisions. How many senior players with experience do we have in the team now, just Tiago silver and he isn't even the captain of the squad. Alot of things are been done wrongly and that's why the club is looking clueless. We need to buy senior players as having a team with just youngsters isn't just going to work.The season we won the champion league and other trophies with Thomas tuchel, even though the team were young, we had alot of experience and senior players still in the team.

I wonder how they will perform when they get to play against Liverpool or Man city or Arsenal or even Man united.

Before then some of our injuired players will be back from injury to strengthen the team like Reece James that's rumored to be back before the Arsenal game. Infact losing those games won't have worried the fans much if we were winning the smaller teams because everybody knowns we're still in a transition stages and they can't expect everything to be moving smoothly. If we can get back to form with the two lower teams game that's coming up (Fulham and Burnley), playing against the big team won't be an issue too because in those games you don't need to be the best team to win. Our boys just have to be the most determined on the field and they'll get us results. The results isn't necessary a win but a draw we can work with.

I don't even think it will be possible for Chelsea to comfortably win Fulham in their next match coming up on Monday,  Fulham have done better than Chelsea this season so far, it is possible for Fulham to defeat Chelsea.

Chelsea winning that game totally depends on Pochettino starting the right players. Palmer has to retain his place in the starting lineup, same as mudrky. Pochettino shouldn't make a mistake of not starting this two players so they can build on the performance they had last game and he should stop packing defensive players on the field when he's playing a small team. We should be attacking not defending, a 3 man defense is alright and not a 5 man defend against like Fulham. I believe we'll win this game because the spirit of the team is high, you can see how pump they were when they scored against Brighton. The only sad thing is Jackson is suspended but Broja will replace him easily and he won't likely be missed. 2-0 win is my prediction for this game.

Al-Hazm vs Al-Taawoun team match will start tomorrow. In this match, there is nothing to do but wait for the players of both teams to enjoy the game. Hopefully both teams can score goals in the match but it is impossible to predict which team will win this match.  .Depending on the performance of the players of both teams, which team will win the match. Al-Taawoun has performed very well in the previous matches, if they can perform well in this match, they will have the chance to win.

Two things can happen in today's game and that's Al-Taawoun winning due to the form they're on and the horrible form that Al-Hazm are also on or Al-Hazm uses this game to get atleast a point because form the past 5 meetings of both teams, their matches has been ending with draws (4 draws from 5 matches). Irrespective of how on form Al-Taawoun are it seems they find it difficult to beat Al-Hazm each time they meet. Also considering the fact that Al-Hazm are playing at home they might get some advantage to take a point out of the game. I don't think they can win though because that'll be too much to ask considering the poor form they have been on (not winning any of their last 5 games).

This season, only 7 matches have been played. We still won't know whether those who are currently at the top of the standings can continue to play consistently. AL Nassr may have lost momentum at the start of the season, but now they are better and quite productive in every match. This will be a great season for AL Nassr, and of course, there will be good competition with AL Hilal and Ittihad.

We're not half way into the season yet so it's too early to take sides on who will win but from the form of Al Nassr and their determination, they also have my support. They have already won a title this year so the hunger to win more title is in their veins and considering they have a title winning striker in Ronaldo, their chances of winning keeps increasing. Al Hilal seems to have fallen off their spike to the season because their recent games hasn't been much of a success. They're still among those I think have a shot at the title but they need to up their game to be able to challenge Al Nassr to the title.

My country people I greet una ooh, sometimes I can't help but wonder how good or bad Nigeria would have become if we had just one unified Religion in the country, we have Muslim and Christian religion, and the conflicts between the two religion is something else,

I guess we'll never know because it can't happen, we no fit get only one religion for the country. Nigeria dey too diverse to have only one religion but e no mean say we no fit dey in unity in our diversity. Na lack of proper education dey cause all this problem wey we dey get because when we dey intellectually equip we go understand say e no matter who you dey worship but the good in you dat's all that matters. When we dey educated, we no go allow politicians use religion to divide us because na wetin dis politicians dey do so to get favor from people wey from their religion. Religious diversity na wetin most countries for the world get but because their level of education high, they're coexisting well without much challenges, Nigeria can achieve that as well.

But I believe if the country had just one unified religion things would have changed a but. So my country people make una reason this matter how e for be if to say we get one Religion.

I no support am as e go limit us to only one way of thinking, there's strength in been diverse. Islam and Christian religion no be even our religion so why we go accept only one, we get our traditional religion and other religions that are peaceful. No be say dem popular go make use think say they're better. We get Hinduism, Sikhism, Atheism, Buddhism etc dem many and accepting all legally go do more good then banning others and only accepting one, e go limit our thinking growth. Imagine not allowing gambling in the country or alcohol because of religion why go make all this company leave the country and e go take us back in civilization.

The worst part is that our government and private sectors are doing absolutely nothing feasible to reduce the rate at which the activities of companies flaring gases and the cars putting out poisonous smoke in the surroundings can be curbed.

The whole thing is as a result of climate change but we dey country wey nobody gives a fuck about the environment. If we dey care the government for dun find way make light dey regular as e go reduce the rate at which we dey use fuel for the country but na there wey some people for government dey chop from so dem no go bring that suggestions instead dem go wan dey sell their generators to us to buy and fuel for we to use operate am. If to say we no get light problem other solution would had been introduce like the use of electric cars but this one wey be say light no dey, the roads no good, if you go buy electric car na yourself wey you dey do. Nigeria is heavily polluted no be here because everything for the country dey polluted from the air, land to water.

People are not even being sensitized that much in society regarding the importance of planting trees in our surroundings and even d trees that are already planted have started  being cut down lately.

You wan tell poor man to care about environment when him never chop? Every body dey para for the country so this climate change discussion no be wetin dem wan hear now. Everybody is caring for demselfs so you no get right to tell them how to use their appliances. If he government was responsible like other foreign countries den dem for get mouth in how not to use your cars or generators but this one na all man for himself country  The planting of tree awareness need to get more voice as dis one dey very important because trees contribute alot to the environment so we no need wait for the government to dey do this one but we as NGO's fit dey create the awareness in our neighborhoods.
720  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Why most people for naija believe say Bitcoin na scam? on: September 29, 2023, 03:56:57 AM
I con realize say during those first period way mobile technology tay cast for naija,some of the people way understand all this Bitcoin matter use am tay scam many people so over time people con de conclude say Bitcoin na scam


Bitcoin got introduced to Nigerians form MMM and na ponzi scheme be dat, Bitcoin wasn't much of a buzz word in Nigeria until 2015 wey MMM promise anybody wey invest with Bitcoin 40% instead of the regular 30% wey Naira investment dey give and as you trust Nigerians na, people begin invest inside with Bitcoin and from their other ponzi scheme begin come out wey their currency na Bitcoin so the average Nigeria will always see Bitcoin as a get rich quick scheme because na wetin dey take know Bitcoin be dat. Only few people do research like myself because I was also introduced to Bitcoin from MMM but I no stop there as I begin attend seminars and reading more about the whole thing back in 2015. After all the crashes of those investment platforms (ponzi scheme) some people begin fear anything Bitcoin and online in general and na why people think say na scam.

Quote
Another thing way still de contribute na wrong idea. Many of them believe say Bitcoin de bring wealth over night.so Dem no de bother to read about am before Dem invest or hodl.the reason why Dem get dis belief na because I dn see many cases of all dis yahoo boys Dem (cyber fraudster)de use Bitcoin name de cover d scam way Dem de into

Every yahoo boy wey EFCC catch first go say him na Bitcoin investor, forex or crypto trader and when they finally confess the truth of wetin dem dey actually do wey be internet fraud, e go dun late because people wey no know go think say, dey got convicted because of what they said they were doing earlier and also this their scams na Bitcoin dem dey use cashout so all this one dey follow spoil people mind concerning the whole industry. I remember when I first dey do Bitcoin trading, my papa think say I dun join dem (yahoo yahoo) so without educating Nigerians the general public thought be say anything wey get to do with Bitcoin na scammers and no forget people no too trust anything wey no get physical shop again because of the experience from ponzi scheme crashing and there's nobody to hold.
