701  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [POLL] Using AI to predict outcomes on: January 28, 2024, 02:20:49 AM
The development of the world of artificial intelligence (AI) is truly extraordinary. and many novice gamblers use these machines to predict gambling games. Some even asked him to predict altcoins as a trading tool.
In fact, it is good to use AI for this purpose, but it is also not the right and final choice. You also have to pay attention to your own analysis when making bets. Moreover, gambling games are also limited by the time for betting on the game. Is there still time to use AI as a decision-making tool?
AI like any other technology is always evolving, so supposing that you could create an AI that could predict more often than not the results of a match and make money with it, this does not mean that this will always remain the case.

Remember, casinos will also have access to that technology, and they will make use of it not only to produce better odds that are more difficult to beat, they can also use AI to try to detect users that may be using that technology and limit their accounts.

You're actually right because the introducers or owners of casinos didn't program it for gamblers to be winning all the time so a situation whereby a gambler tends to use modern technology like AI to maneuver and he gets winning on a regular and the casino owners finds out about that then they will actually limit that account or possibly ban it from placing bets.

Not really, because there are people who try to make gambling their job, and they think that gambling is something they should prioritize. They will gamble more often and will use more money even though that doesn't guarantee they can win. Yes, they can become addicted because they often gamble, and it will be risky for them, so they should rethink making gambling their job. There are still many other things that can be used as their work and they can still look for jobs that can make money. It will be better for them because they can get a good career in their job so they can earn more money. Those who want to make a career in gambling can think about becoming an employee at a casino so that it can provide income for them.

The gambler who want to start the gambling as their carrier,they will do the gambling as the serious business.They never consider the gambling as their entertainment,because they primary business was gambling.The most of the gamblers winning was not the guaranteed one,So the gambler who takes the gambling as their primary source of income means almost they taking of the risk.Because sometimes they get winning and sometimes they lose their entire capital.So he need to manage the money at the time of loss,because the gamblers will have their monthly expenses for the family at the time of loss in the gambling site.

Yes actually making a successful career in gambling will lead to addiction in the sense that you will be so attached to it that everyday of your life you would want to play in other to win and even as at that I don't still think anyone can make a successful career in something that involves chances like it isn't certain that you would win at the end of the day because when we talk about career, we are actually talking about what one does everyday in other to earn a living and how can one play gamble everyday and possibly win everyday? and gambling everyday can lead to losing almost every day as well because your chances of winning is very minor thereby you can put yourself and your family in lack due to the fact that the money that would have been used to take care of them, you will exhaust it why trying to win but yet you keep running into numerous losses.

It's so unfortunate that there is no true companionship this days even if there is it's very rare as all what people are interested now is money and no love is attached again and it now looks and appears like being single is better rather than being in a relationship that will abruptly terminate when one of the parties is deeply in love with the other but not withstanding, there was a purpose for creating man and woman of which we can't run away from it totally so any way it is we should try as much as possible to be committed to our partners even if they didn't reciprocate in return as one isn't even completely happy while single and others are being in a relationship and even getting married.
704  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Nigeria Economic inflation the reason for bitcoin investment/adoption on: January 27, 2024, 05:02:47 PM
So many shops will shutdown in Nigeria because of economic inflation. As I dey Waka dey go somewhere, the usual road I dey pass before. I notice say many shop no open again. And this shops na shop wey be say e been dey booble before, but all of a sudden e don dey lockdown. When I ask say why D shop them no dey open, them say the owner say things too cost Naim make them no open.
If this is true, this will happen in rear situation. It can not be common. Shops that I am seeing daily are become more many as more shops are built. No shop closed down just like that. If a shop closes down, likely because the shop renter wants to move to another location or change business. If the place attracts customers, you will soon see another person that will rent the shop.

Another reason a shop can close down is because the location is not favoring business. Or if thieves are common and stealing in such location and no security.


Though he might actually be right that some businesses are shutting down due to inflation because if they buy stuffs from the market at higher prices definitely they will as well add prices in their retail business and it is difficult to convince consumers that the price of things have skyrocketed in the market as some will even leave your shop to another and if they find out that the person is selling lesser than you regardless of the small amount it may be; they will start skipping your shop and in such a situation your business would start going down as a result of low patronage so it is possible but however, if the prices of things increases in the market you would also have to increase yours in other to make some profits and if you're in a good location where people around understands the cost of things in the market, they would patronize you regardless of the high price you sell to them.
705  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Are newbies afraid to comment on threads of highly ranked members? on: January 26, 2024, 10:01:10 PM
If you think you don’t have something significant to say because you are still in the process of gaining information and learning, then don’t post your comment anyway. It’s better to join in a discussion when you have something relevant to say, otherwise your post will only be criticized. However, being criticized is actually a form of learning. If you know how to process it constructively, you will definitely learn from all those mean comments from your seniors.

This is clarity as you've just given an awesome explanation because if someone doesn't have something relevant to say then what's the need joining a conversation that's filled with high rank members so is not as if high rank members belittle lower rank members but is just that most of the high rank members knows how to discuss in some sensitive threads and conversation so a mare newbie that doesn't even understand what is being discussed cannot just enter into such a conversation hence they need to stay off and also there are some threads that talks about a high ranked member in the forum and a typical newbie may not know the user base on the fact that the high ranked member have been in the forum for long and it's left for users that have equally stayed that long in the forum to say things about that user so a newbie might have nothing to offer in such a discussion.

Snip~~~


Bro in as much as I wouldn't want people to see this as criticism, I will want to truth to prevail, I know some person has testified that they met their life partner online, not being doubtful, the possibility of getting the right partner is slim, I didn't say it is not possible though, people you see in dating apps are not always what you think when you guys finally meet each other physically, if you want to flirt that's a good place for flirts to neet their match, it is even very risky to visit an online friend, that's why I said women takes more risk than men when it comes this, some one you don't know from anywhere will invite you over and you will willingly go for personal gain that might end your life.

People do find life partners or good connections online but I think what the OP is trying to relate is just for people to be very careful when dealing with people you've not met before through these social apps is not as if he's condemning the apps and moreover, talking about people getting life partners through dating apps it happens but it's very rare as most people always complain of being scammed through this dating apps and if you are into this dating apps you would agree with me that a lot of these apps are filled with scammers and fraudsters disguising themselves as people who are seeking for love online without knowing that they have ulterior motives and intention.

People get depressed more especially when things ain't going too well for them in a very long time and they've been trying their possible best to make things work out for them but to no avail and it appears that all hopes are lost then they will begin to lose that urge for pleasure of fun and they become so unhappy and angry even violent because of a situation they've been passing through and sometimes it makes them become so emotional and basically, no one will actually be happy that they are passing through some difficulties for a long period of time and be happy or have time for fun.
708  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: unnecessarily quoting by members of the forum. on: January 25, 2024, 10:07:15 PM
This unnecessary quotes is very unprofessional though there are times when before an information can be passed, one have to make reference to the response of various individuals but some users here doesn't really understand the mode of quoting someone as if you actually they want to quote a particular reply, it's just to edit it and quote directly rather than giving references from the first person that started the quote.
I see it that some persons just feel so reluctant and lazy to edit a post and possibly quote a particular one they needed to quote which is a very bad habit, you see some users quoting about 10 replies at same time which makes them looks irrelevant and most users will rather skip such a reply rather than try to inculcate the information that the user tends to pass to readers.
709  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: The fall of shitcoin/altcoin, the rise of bitcoin on: January 25, 2024, 09:55:52 PM
I greet ona o. I just dey reason how many coin don surface for air after bitcoin. So many of them don fall finish. If you go coingecho or any crypto website, you go see say na everyday coin dey enter market and naso them get short life spam. People wey never know wetting the happen go dey buy am dey Happy say there future don bright not knowing say na junk then they buy. Tera Luna and FTT coin show people shegge and other ones wey I no no. Now people come dey realise say na bitcoin be the Koko. So I come they think wether na these things wey happen to people naim increase bitcoin adoption pass the way e been dey before or bitcoin for just grow without these things wey I talk.

Abeg make ona shear ona idea on wetting ona think dey increase bitcoin adoption

Just as the name implies "shitcoins" they have no volatility at all as all we experience from this shitcoins is just pump and dump as the people that introduces this shitcoins knows perfectly well that those coins can survive the crypto market where there are more volatile cryptos like Bitcoins that has higher volatility and everyone's interest is mostly on Bitcoin so definitely, as Bitcoin surfaces all other coins tends to fall and vanish in other to make way for Bitcoin to still maintain it's high profile among other cryptocurrencies.

What increases Bitcoin adoption the most is it's sustainability because Bitcoin over the years, has stood out among other cryptos thereby making it future to be guaranteed on like some shitcoins that rises as a result of hype and later on perishes and any investor holding such a coin will definitely run into losses.
710  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: January 25, 2024, 02:49:02 AM
Like many people have already said, investment fund should be separated from funds for basic needs thereafter emergency funds should also be kept for optimal management of the investment portfolio. This way there will be no pressures to sell even if the price drop because there is the confidence that Bitcoin will always recover with time.
I agree.

Because what happens when your entire investment like if you're holding Bitcoin is your entire wealth, there is a big tendency that you will be forced to sell it at a time that you're not willing to sell but you have to.

That's why when we invest, make sure that we've got funds as well like emergency funds or extra funds that will be touched and protect our assets like in Bitcoin if unforeseen times comes.

Our aim should be how to make our investment long-term, for long-term holding we are given ideas about different strategies. We will usually invest long-term so no bitcoins will be withdrawn from here (the original hold bitcoins) but deposited.

We have to make our investment decisions with external sources of income. If you are dependent on the original holding then your holding will not be long-term by any means. Here's why your holdings can be sold in the pursuit of scarcity (these discussions are important if you adopt the DCA strategy, you can get rid of all these hassles, and your investment will be long-term).

Those who have a physical source of income will be able to participate in the investment with additional money. Investing in the DCA approach helps to absorb all types of risk. Never think of selling holdings as it can ruin you. Avoid selling holdings and benefits.


In other to be determined to succeed as an investor it requires discipline because if you are not disciplined then you can't really hodl for a long term because sometimes there might arise some circumstances whereby you are left with no choice than to tamper with your holdings maybe simply because you don't have an alternative funds that can sort issues at any challenging time and as a long term investor who is determined to accumulate as many bitcoin in your portfolio you ought to make sure that your income doesn't only generate from one source such that in a situation whereby the basic income you used for DCA doesn't come as regular as before, you can easily switch over to your other source of income to continue the DCA pending when your normal source of income reinvigorates.

Having diverse source of income will help never to miss out at any intervals during your DCA because you're already sure that if plan A doesn't work out then plan B will actually work out and this are good qualities of an investor who wish to hodl for a longer period of time and before you know it you have already acquired enough Bitcoin in your portfolio afterwhich you can decide to sell some part of your coin at a higher price.

On know account should any Bitcoin investor liquidate the quantity of Bitcoin he is hodling while using DCA because it will lead to non achievements of hodling for a long time in the sense that the amount that has been liquidated will affect the DCA and moreover, may not be replaced anymore therefore the quest to acquire more Bitcoins in ones portfolio may be conquered.


711  Other / Off-topic / Re: Is Marriage a contract or a union? on: January 25, 2024, 01:26:48 AM
Marriage being a contract or a union is dependent on how you and your partner agreed to live with each other though the intended aim of marriage is to stand as a union that ought to last for a lifetime but it is rather unfortunate that due to high rate of divorces in this modern age, a lot of partners either goes into agreement of contract on how the marriage is gonna be, there are some persons that are only interested in their partner giving birth and raising the child to a certain age afterwhich they settle the woman with an agreed amount of money then the woman goes away and would not have anything in common with the child and in terms of the man too there are also women that enters into a contract with their partners just so that the man can impregnate her then the woman settles him and claim custody of the baby when they are born.

Formerly, there was nothing of this nature before because it will be very sad for a child to grow up knowing that they don't have either of the parents whereby other children goes about with their parents and when the child sees such they might be exposed to emotional trauma because normally it isn't really easy for any child whose parents ain't together as they go through a lot during their upbringing.

Biblically or taking religion into consideration, you would find out that the purpose of our Creator creating man and woman is because of companionship between the both parties till eternity rather than just being Interested in a contract that wouldn't lead to a long lasting companionship.
712  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Can naira earners keep up with their BTC pursuit. on: January 24, 2024, 04:17:23 AM
Due to our current exchange rate now it is really very difficult to buy Bitcoin because imagine if you want to buy Bitcoin worth $50 dollars, you would be spending about #68,000 or #69000 with transactions fee and now that the price of Bitcoin is dipping would have been the best time to buy more Bitcoin and it's really sad that our currency keeps depreciating on daily basis thereby making difficult for individuals to use our currency to buy bitcoin so it's only just the people that are earning in dollars that can confidently buy bitcoin now as our currency have been devalued to an unacceptable rate which is going to hinder bitcoiners within the country from buying Bitcoin now that the price is dipping which would have stood as an advantage to bitcoin investors within the country
713  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How can we understand market going to be Bear? on: January 24, 2024, 03:52:07 AM
One can actually know when the market is becoming bearish as a result of the prices not increasing anymore or going down for a long period of time without tending to rise anymore then the bear must have been said to have taken place. Perhaps, if there is no much demand in the market, prices tends to decrease because if there is no demand then what's the need for supplying and this makes prices to stagnate and not push further so in such a situation, the market is bearish
714  Other / Politics & Society / Re: The rate of divorce in the society on: January 24, 2024, 03:37:29 AM
I noticed that divorce is now a normal thing , people will get married today and in less than two months they are divorced already..I heard a story of how a man after seeing the wife's face without  make-up the following morning divorced his wife saying he was deceived that she is not as beautiful as he sees her before.
But our forefathers has been with same women for decades, is it exposure ? Who is really the problem ? The man or the woman?


Point of correction, divorce isn't a normal thing as couples now a days doesn't actually understands what marriage is all about before they enter into marriage and what's causing this high rate of divorce cases is 1: entering into marriage with little or no knowledge of the commitment that's involved in marriage, 2: marrying because of physical qualities, 3: seeing marriage as one sided that is as a man's duty to make the marriage work, and lastly not being resourceful and productive.

Many a people, enter into marriage this days simply because their mates are getting married (peer pressure) or because they think they are of age to get married without thinking about the fundamentals of marriage, like those things that actually matters as marriage ought to be a lifetime commitment between the man and the woman to live together as husband and wife regardless of challenges and obstacles they may encounter.

The high rate of divorce this days is really a thing of concern and I think there should be a sensitization programs for couples in other to emphasize the needs why divorce shouldn't be an option to resolve marital issues as there are ways to resolve matters among husbands and wives without necessarily seeking for divorce because if this divorce cases continue to increase them am afraid people will begin to show little or no interest towards marriage because they will be afraid of the aftermath of their marriage therefore in other to prevent a divorce from happening after marriage, it had better be no marriage in the first place
715  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: January 24, 2024, 03:17:15 AM
There is a way the money will grow and we begin to imagine what we could achieve with it, this is where the temptation of selling come from.
There is nothing greater than seeing bitcoin as a life time investment, and legacy of which wealth is passed down to our children, if you have this initiative, you will hardly want to sell all your bitcoin to buy some kind of achievement that you think is better than your bitcoin achievement, which I don't think that there will be any achievement which will be able to generate good profit compare to the profit that your bitcoin portfolio will generate for you over time.

Furthermore, I have seen a case of someone using the funds for DCA in buying something else. His emergency fund got exhausted and he needed more money for his needs. This is one of those things that can come up even when you think you have got everything planned out.
I will say he didn't have proper plan and that is why he ended up using his DCA money and also exhausted his emergency funds. This is why as you are growing your bitcoin investment, you need to also be growing your emergency funds to a certain level that no matter what the circumstance maybe, your emergency funds will be able to take care of it. Another thing that I learnt is that, it is good to also have reserve funds available and prepare for the worst case scenario playing out, when you are on your accumulation stage, so that whatever way you find the suituation, you can overcome it without selling your bitcoin investment. In such situation, you can stop DCAing and wiat till when you have overcome the financial crisis that you are facing.
Not everyone who is accumulating bitcoin with the DCA strategy has the same financial power to save a reserved fund after saving the fund that will take care of their financial needs. So I agree with Odohu that someone used his bitcoin DCA fund to buy something else because there will be a situation where you will find yourself handling a project and your emergency fund will not be enough to finish up the project, and there is nowhere you can get money in the short term. You will have no choice but to skip buying bitcoin for some weeks so that you will be able to finish up the project.

Unless you don't have a steady income, if you have a steady income then why will you skip buying when you know you're DCA? and every investment is about planning as you can't just run into a project that will eat up your reserved funds and even make you to skip buying because you've already had a target of accumulating via DCA, and your reserved funds is for miscellaneous at the end of the day so that you will not tamper with your holdings.

What you need to understand is that DCA requires consistency before you can accumulate enough Bitcoin that's why you shouldn't enter into a project yet when DCA so that you won't be under pressure of not accumulating simply because you want to satisfy your project, but perhaps, that's the more reason why sharing ones income into three is important because one part of your income would be used to DCA, the other part for some expenses before your next income arrives and the third part is an urgent fund that in a case where you have exhausted the money for expenses before your next income you can possibly go to your urgent funds to sort out any other expenses that you needed pending when your income arrives but don't get involved in anything that you can't handle before your next income otherwise you might be forced to either tamper with your holdings or you may disregard buying at that material time.
716  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Denying yourself comfortability in other to buy Bitcoin on: January 23, 2024, 07:26:59 AM
Do you think this is a strategy to accumulate Bitcoin faster because of the volatile nature of Bitcoin?

Already Bitcoin being a high volatile asset requires to be accumulated faster more especially now that price is dipping because in few months from now the halving will appear and next is the bull run where we are expecting the price of Bitcoin to go all time high of which the price might really be unaffordable as at that time so it is an opportunity to accumulate Bitcoin now as fast as possible before the price starts to go high again.

Lastly have anyone come across any individual who will deny his comfort for Bitcoin and what do you think are their motivations?

Everything good comes with sacrifice and a prize thereafter and if anyone denied his comfort, pleasure and fun just because they have a target of accumulating bitcoin then the sacrifice is worth it because at the end of your investments into Bitcoin you can achieve those things you denied yourself earlier even in a more comfortable way.

Yes I have seen someone that is into Bitcoin, he doesn't buy clothes, lives in a rented apartment, denied himself all sort of pleasure and comfort and earns an income but he has been so devoted in acquiring Bitcoin because his motivation came after he regretted not acquiring Bitcoin years ago so he took it as a challenge to do that now regardless of the price of Bitcoin because he believes that the future of Bitcoin is reliable unlike years back when few people believed that Bitcoin will be sustainable.
717  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Prepare for the Next Dip before the Real Bull. on: January 23, 2024, 02:13:40 AM
I think this is an opportunity for investors and those that were wishing for a dip in other for them to buy as it is normal for the price of Bitcoin to undergo this necessary corrections after Spot bitcoin ETFs were approved so there shouldn't be any panic at all because I know by now that some short term hodlers that was expecting the price to go high so that they can sell their coin and make some little profits are already panicking and contemplating either to sell it off before it dips the more or leave it till the corrections have been undergone and the price skyrocket again but even as at that, every one should hold their coin and if possible acquire more of it in their portfolio because this corrections is an added advantage for Bitcoiners who are into long-term hodling.

I don't really know if the private job you're referring to is working for someone but whichever way it is private jobs or government jobs are good but the most reliable job is having ones own establishment or company that is runned and managed by you because you will be aware of how everything is going rather than work for someone or the government whereas your salaries may not actually come at a time you expected it or even when we talk about pensions and gratuity, most people who retires from government works or private jobs finds it difficult to get their pensions and their gratuity even the ones that manages to get theirs spend even years before they are paid so no job is as guaranteed as the one you create for yourself.
