when CBN ban bitcoin them get enough reason saying bitcoin na scam project etc
Are you sure about this? I have not seen anywhere that CBN called bitcoin or cryptocurrencies in general as scam. Although, it is possible that they may say some scammers are using it. You should also know that this present government are in favour of cryptocurrencies. You should know that when they include crypto in the financial act of 2023.
Although president Tinubu came out during his campaign saying he will accept cryptocurrency in his reign that doesn't mean he wanted crypto, sometimes we all know how our politicians work and they say things during their campaign just to get power and looking at the adoption rate of crypto in Nigeria you will understand why president Tinubu said that, even if CBN lifted the ban now it shows they have seen the benefit of crypto in the society, our present government are in favour of cryptocurrencies cause they know the benefit and that's a good development, I came across a news but I can't really remember but when I went through the news CBN government said a lot about crypto although it was not all about the scam project but they actually made a speech saying citizens should be careful with cryptocurrency in essence they tried warning people who invested in crypto 2021 during that time CBN never liked crypto, now they've lifted the ban it shows they've seen the benefit although we can't tell what inspired them to make such decision

Success in gambling doesn't come always so we get a lot lose than win in gambling, the issue with gamblers now they decide to share their success with their friends but neglect the lose, I still don't understand why someone will want to gamble more because of some else success, it sounds senseless cause an addict struggling to pay debt cause of gambling will change their decision over night because of another person success. Although when sharing about the win we should not forget the countless times we lose so people will not have a wrong view on gambling, some people get easily moved by others success so it's best to avoid sharing wins that sounds risky to people especially gambling that has to do with taking risk.

Not everyone will love to follow the trend so quickly so even if they need time that's their decision, I understand your point of view it's better to follow the trend than to be left behind cause of fear, we don't except the older men to follow suit although some older men are into modern technology but still we hear a lot fasle stories about digital technology.
Sometimes it's best everyone should know and have the knowledge about modern technology cause now the world is developing, just imagine people still doesn't know how digital currency works and let's take for example the world only uses digital currency how can people without the knowledge survive, sometimes ignorance can cause all this to happen or sometimes people just feel exempted.

Crypto investment vs real estate investment : Which one more dependable in the future
Though have been in the crypto space for quite some time now, I knew little about crypto. A friend of mine just introduced me to real estate investment.
Which one should I go for with a capital less than $2500?
What's your choice, if you already have experience in the crypto field then you should go for crypto but if you choose to go for real estate investment that's a nice choice but it depends on your capital but still every investment requires capital so let's forget about the cost, when dealing with crypto you need to be wise and smart cause not all crypto will serve as a good investment, concerning real estate investment I don't know the necessary needs needed but the location matter a lot, I'm sure your friend will explain better on how you should start. If you want to choose you should go for the you understand and invest wisely.
705  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: December 29, 2023, 08:56:49 PM
Liverpool is definitely in the title race, what i like most about their title charge this season is how they have gone about it with little to no noise, at the start of the season everyone was looking at City and Arsenal only, and too many people were not giving Liverpool a chance at the title, maybe because of how bad they were last season. Having said that, Liverpool have proved that they can still challenge for the title, and yes they can win it, though imo City are my favorites to win the title and Liverpool would come second.
Liverpool in the tittle race position right now behind lead top standings position two points left from Arsenal but need consistency until the end of matches how possibility Liverpool can stop Manchester City dominance winning Premier League tittle last several years. Until matchday 19 have many teams in tittle race not only Liverpool but also have Arsenal, Aston Villa, Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur with not many points left from each teams.
But depend which one have stable performance and keep consistency in the winning trend get chance for winning premier league tittle in this season with usually Manchester City always win on many crucial match exactly last season success defeated Arsenal manager top standings more longer time.
Changes in strategy and having aggressive approach bring Liverpool to this level, and they have good chance for the win with still it's very long way to go because we have good improvement in few other teams which can steal the show near the end of this season as we have history in Premier League nothing is sure until last match played Arsenal is also improved from their last year's performance, and they can also jump again after having few bad weeks with Manchester City is also at their best and back in business which is giving them still one of the hot favourite tag.

Aston Villa and Tottenham are also fairly in as they are giving good performance even they are having not enough quality like top three but Liverpool and Manchester City could be at the another level, and we can't give any better prediction about winner with still we have 20 rounds to go which is really enough time for having too many changes.
The winner this season seems difficult to predict and I still can't believe Liverpool will win the tittle this season until I see that with my eyes I will not just predict cause anything can happen for example same thing happened to Arsenal last season, I don't really think Liverpool will be that foolish to hand over so quickly, talking about their recent fixtures they will have to battle with Newcastle, Arsenal, Fulham, if they manage to win all matches under probability then we should be expecting a win for the title this season, Manchester city at the other hand seems to be improving, if Manchester city manage to return back then the competition this season will be so tough even with Arsenal previous performance shows they're ready despite West Ham managed to score due to poor defence I still think if Arsenal can have a good striker they're good to go, from yesterday's result total shots from Arsenal 30 compared to West Ham 6 shots.

then, it took a community to raise a child. but now everyone is minding his or her business by building houses with fence. this men were either retired teachers or railway personnel's. we need a return of those days, it was more peaceful and sweet. and then, there was no muche crime then to compare now and  the whole community was living like a family.
Can we go back to those days, and how possible is it ?
What makes you think going back will help matters now, judging from the pasts I believed everyone loved that process but have you ever asked yourself why those men stopped scolding kids with bad behavior or they just felt like stopping, I'm not in the right position to even judge people living their life in private cause seeing how the world is wicked everyone should choose to mind their business, even when those men you mentioned try to scold a child for bad behavior the person might end up fighting the parent of the child, not every parents wants this for their kids they insist on handling them by them self, even then with the scolding and flogging from older men kids will still choose to behave arrogant cause any punishment coming outside children will hardly change, if you think going back can help matters that's your opinion.

I still don't blame people saying this law will not stand for long and even with the scam topic, Nigeria na country wey full with cruise since this news start I never really take time read about the news and why will CBN lift the ban, abi una don hear the reason, since I never hear the reason why them lift the ban I go say them get motive of lifting the ban cause every normal human being get reason when making decision, when CBN ban bitcoin them get enough reason saying bitcoin na scam project etc, although this motive fit be good or bad but we should get a full information about this matter before conclusion, even the least person with little amount for bank scammers go still dey disturb with calls trying to scam their customers so what's this one they can't scam, even with the ban on Bitcoin scammers still continue so I see no reason why them go stop or you pointing it to bitcoin users in Nigeria, make we dey careful and stop picking unknown numbers to avoid hearing nonsense.
708  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: [Fun Discussion] How Will You Escape if You Find Yourself In Such Situation 😁? on: December 29, 2023, 07:40:38 PM
Every problem dey get solution but this problem to find solution hard, the simple truth be say no solution to this problem cause lion and crocodile dey ground how the guy wan take escape now, talking about the snake for up as na picture we take see am no be video I believe say that snake go scroll go meet that boy cause snake dey very sensitive sometimes snake dey smell fear and if the snake know say the target dey fear na the more them go dey powerful, even if the snake bite the boy now the boy go definitely fall inside the water, I never experience snake bite before but the way people dey talk about snake bite e dey very painful so if i dey that boy shoes I no go carry my body give that snake to bite, my idea dey funny sha but na wetin I think, make the boy jump  inside the water but no be the crocodile direction he can jump to another spot then make he swim fast but this idea still dey risky cause crocodile dey speed for water with that tail so I no sure say this problem get solution.
709  Other / Politics & Society / Re: How do you see young girls who engage into prostitution on: December 29, 2023, 03:37:35 PM
What's my thought towards young girls going into prostitution, if those girls decide to prostitute for a living I think that's their choice and they are allowed to do what they love, if you keep complaining about such you might end up finding fault on things not necessary, although society sees prostitution as a sinful act and the people involved in this act don't care what the society will say, that's why the number of prostitution keeps increasing everyday. Sometimes people going into this act fails to understand the consequences, I don't really know why most people choose prostitution as a lifestyle it's obvious everyone has their reason and some of those girls needs help. The story concerning the girl that got mad that's just normal I see such stories on social media but some girls will never fall victim of such maybe they're lucky or something else, we keep hearing stories like ritual and kidnapping so everyone should be careful not just prostitutes falling victim but sometimes innocent people or friend can be use for ritual.
710  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: December 28, 2023, 10:33:40 PM
It seems that we have too much hope for Arsenal so we think it is impossible for Arsenal to be beaten but that's what happened West Ham already scored 2 goals, clearly this is a loss for Arsenal and Liverpool will not waste this opportunity to leave Arsenal behind. The same thing to Tottenham conceded 4 goals, is a bad record lol, we wouldn't be surprised if the opponents strong teams but now their opponents are Brighton teams that are below Tottenham based on ranking in the standings.
This is really beyond many people's expectations because previously I saw many people saying that Arsenal would be able to win easily against West Ham because Arsenal was playing at home. But looking at the results of the match it certainly surprised us because Arsenal played quite well and also took lots of shots but none of them became goals. I think West Ham succeeded in implementing a defensive strategy quite well because Arsenal took 27 shots but were blocked well by Areola.

Liverpool fans are quite happy with this result because the two teams below them failed to get full points in this week match so that Liverpool can sit comfortably at the top of the standing. Meanwhile, the bad results obtained by Aston Villa and Arsenal will mean that Manchester City can easily catch them in the upcoming match.
I also didn't expect the win today and surprisingly how west ham managed to score 2goals with no much attempt, looking at the match today Arsenal made more attempt but still they could not score, I don't like the performance of Arsenal today cause I expected more looking at the starting of the match Arsenal really pressured with what Saka and Odegaard did during the first half including the other players I expected a goal but still west ham with their tight defence didn't allowed the process, I loved the performance from west ham and they delivered excellent.
If Aston villa and Arsenal continue playing like this there's no hope for them winning this season, the problem with Arsenal they feel too relaxed with any opportunity cause they did same last season and they still want to repeat it, honestly I really want Arsenal to win this season but if they continue playing like this how can it be possible. Concerning the Manchester city let's watch out for their next performance and if they manage to win then they might win this season again under probability.
711  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: Rising case of kidney and liver failure...watch wetin you drink on: December 28, 2023, 09:46:14 PM
Alcohol is not the only cause of liver failure the issue here since people have decided to abuse the intake of alcohol it now stand as a threat to their life's, I don't know why people fail to take instructions even when those instructions are meant to save life, talking about the sachet Alcoholic drink that's the major problem now cause not everyone can afford those costly drink they decide to go for the cheaper one and people like this will love to consume 2 or 3 a day just because they find pleasure in drinking. Have you not seen of a case when the patient doesn't drink or smoke but still suffering from kidney failure but it's very rare, sometimes the excess intake of alcohol might not cause liver or kidney failure but it can cause a great damage in human system that's why most drunkers fall ill cause they immune system has been damage due to the intake of harmful substance like cocaine.
If we want to discuss more on this topic in Nigeria a lot of youth will fall victim but still there's a room to change. Talking about fake drinks and product I still don't understand why companies will decide to tarnish their reputation they have build for year seeing product like eva, malt etc, it sounds stupid, at first when I saw the video about fake malt I didn't believe I thought some competitiors might have set up the company but seeing the police involved in this matter I believed those products are fake, for the safety of our health we should be careful when buying drinks or food stuffs.

Quit gambling for what reason, if the process is turning to an addiction then that's when the person can quit but it's not so easy as we think, i dont like blaming gamblers who are addicted, firstly everyone have an addiction they're fighting with so if someone else addiction has to do with gambling there's  no big deal but the problem now it can lead to debt, selling of property, causing suicide or discrimination, the best thing is to change and such people needs help from others like friends or colleague they can't just change on their own without going back, firstly if a person decides to change the mindset should be the first target cause building the mindset matters a lot, going back to that act still shows the person is not ready to change maybe they find pleasure in doing it.
713  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: December 28, 2023, 05:46:30 PM
I don’t see anything other than an Arsenal win as likely tonight. I don’t think they are the finished article but surely they won’t drop points against West Ham.

In the other game tonight, I never know what to expect with Spurs. It could he any outcome, wouldn’t surprise me if Brighton took something from the game.

I also expect Arsenal to win tonight. Arsenal are on a good momentum right now and have far better quality than West ham. With Liverpool leading the table temporarily Arsenal will target to get the 3 points desperately and be on the front seat again on the table. Hammers are a tough opponent as they have some good players so Arsenal might have to be wary of their attacks.

Spurs have some injuries so I am not entirely convinced but considering their performance they should be able to get some points. Yes, I also wouldn't be surprised if Brighton also comes out to win the match as Spurs lack their regular players and might wobble a bit for the time being.
Even if all eyes are on Arsenal this season and today match everyone wants to see what Arsenal can offer, I personally know what Arsenal can do and they will definitely win if Arteta can start with key players, hoping to see Trossard starting.
Arsenal can beat west ham 100% sure but when it comes to football mostly this season we can't just predict with courage, the problem of Arsenal now they lack the ability to attack of course every team has this same challenge but if they want to top the table today they should put in more effort cause seeing West Ham right now they're also not playing.
Tottenham vs Brighton today might end draw cause even with the injury I don't expect less from Spurs, the match will also be tough but let's watch out.

Man City pull things back into their favor after being down 1-0 at 29 mins against Everton. The game ends 1-3 in favor of Man city and City climb back into top 4. City are still in contention for the title, as they were having a slow phase during this time last year as well. I think they are just ironing out their kinks and experimenting their strats just so they could perfect their play when it really matters, the 2nd half of the season. They have the talent and a winning pedigree, I'm sure they will surely contest for the title this season again.
Finally, Manchester City managed to get a win in the match against Everton and slowly but surely get back up and try to catch up on the points that were already quite far behind. Hopefully, in the next match, Manchester City can be like this again and give victory to their supporters. It can be seen from this match that Manchester City provided excellent control of the ball and their kick accuracy. Everton did not move with the strength shown by Manchester City.
That's good seeing an improvement from the team and I really love what pep is doing to bring back the hope and faith in the team, if they can maintain same energy in their next match against Sheffield United then they might likely still have a chance of winning but still it's not so easy as we think cause a lot of pressure coming from Villa, Arsenal and Liverpool right now despite the fact Villa could not beat united they still have a lot of energy and with Emery Aston Villa will go far but they can't win this season, my prediction this season is Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester city.
Yesterday was united and today Chelsea, let's guess they will start maintaining same energy and let's call their victory a comeback I hope victory for both team and I don't think it's too late for both teams if only they keep representing every match day.

That one na normal for crypto space and not only crypto space, with your example e good make everybody exhibit the habit of patience when holding bitcoin but not all crypto cause some coins are not meant for long term investment, some will decide to follow the hype but still some coins are meant for short term investment. people who fail to understand will end up not making any profit. Sometimes na patience we need for bitcoin investment and the knowledge especially those newly investors wey lack experience, why e dey important to dey patience with bitcoin na cause of the volatility nature of bitcoin so if any investor wants to invest in bitcoin for long term should be ready to wait and stay patience.

If this person is your close friend then you should know everything about him, his working life and investment plan, some people have other means of investing their money not just crypto investment, when you gave him the advice what was his first respond, when advising such a person you should consider some common factors like if he can recover the money he used in buying the car within a year then there's no need to caution him, although it's best to plan wisely when it comes to financial matters and also when it comes to financial matters no one is perfect, buying a Rolls Royce that cost $28million is not bad if only the person is wealthy and of course no poor man can buy a rolls Royce worth $28m so it's obvious your friend is super rich. Even if you decide to cut off the friendship is still your choice but you should learn to respect others decision.

Firstly I will not judge someone's mental health from their appearance this common saying don't judge a book by the cover so don't judge from the look first, when I read the story I was expecting the part when you will say he fought or harassed someone in the casino shop but you never mentioned so how is this person mentally unstable?, I know of a man in my locality he always appears as a mad man but he is normal and strangers usually mistake him as a mad man, in my opinion if he's not causing any harm or threat then he's allowed to gamble, there's no law as such in a local casino shop but still some people will refuse to attend to someone dressed like that.

To be youth for this country no easy at all, the way our country done dey now, e Dan give us the youths the impression say government no get our interest at Heart,  with the way Nigeria youths dey creative and hard working, even in the face of this hardship and unemployment most youths still find way to improve themselves, through other means like crypto currency, social media etc,
So this our mentality is second to non in Africa, the way Nigerians dey hustle if we get better economic atmosphere for this country more youths go make in the face of all the hardships and pressure.
Just like wetin you talk the government no care about the youth not just only the youth everybody dey face hard times cause of the economy, not all youth are hard working I no expect them to dey hardworking cause no be everybody dey the same some will prefer to make dirty money with ritual etc and na them dey blame the economy, although things hard for the country and everyone trying their best to feed and live a better life but the situation never reach to dey kill for money, the reason why I said this is the common hustle wey youth dey hustle don turn the other way round and the population of making illegal  money dey increase everyday due to peer pressure and fast  money, the youth wey you mention and the hustle I wan believe say na good money them dey make. Just like what everyone is saying about the economy now if our economy better the hustle no go too much cause some people ready to die because of work to feed because of the economy.

Have not experience such in this forum so I can't tell but in Nigeria na the common thing wey dey and na naija delta dey commonly face this challenge of tribalism. The issue with the Yoruba language in this board I don't really understand cause not everyone understands Yoruba and some can't even write with Yoruba, if the person feels to include Yoruba then he should start creating threads with Yoruba the ones who can speak can comment and the rest of us will ignore such thread but this idea go bring division for this local board cause when A decides to speak his local language B will also want to speak and people wey no understand that language no go fit communicate for the board again.
Tribalism is our major problem in this country sometimes it hinders the growth of the society and in a situation when power is focused on one tribe, when is time for the south south to take in charge or the south east we see a lot of fighting and killing, even in job opportunity tribalism dey common a lot of people get deprive from working in an organization just because of their tribe for example I know of an oil company that produces oil, in Nigeria the Niger Delta are commonly known for oil production, if am not mistaking this oil company has employed not less than 20 workers this year and non of those newly employed staffs representing Niger Delta but rather other tribe got the job. The issue with tribalism no one can even stop it cause now the newly born ones are thought with this mindset and they develop hatred for other tribes.

Even though Aston Villa lost their match against Manchester United, they would still regard themselves as a big team this season because they have beaten all the big teams you and I know in the premier league.
It is too early for Manchester United fans and teams to begin to boast about their win against Aston Villa. They never can tell whether they will be this lucky to win in their last away match of the year against Nottm Forest. Manchester United can be funny at times in the match you expected them to win, they might lose to it.
They are a big team because they are playing in the Premier League, and they have defeated the best teams in the League, and they are now the best home team in the league because they are yet to lose a home match since the beginning of the season, and even after losing this match, they still keep their position because even if Tottenham win, the ball difference between them will keep Aston Vila ahead of them.
Manchester United actually try today, they win a match people are not expecting them to win and lose the matches we are expecting them win; their level of inconsistency is affecting them badly.
That's just the problem with Manchester united their inconsistency is affecting the team, I know the strength of Manchester united the team players are strong let's forget what's happening this season, the Manchester united we know will score more than 3goals I don't know what going on.
I could not believed my eyes when man utd won this match, excellent performance from Garnacho and the rest of the players, if man utd keeps getting better every match day it will be good for Ten Hang, the fans, no one is even bragging about the game the fans are just happy cause they have never experience such joy for a long time and the fact remains Man utd won Villa with a powerful comeback so am happy for the team if only they can maintain same energy throughout this season.
