Gambles responsible as it's written in their slogan, I want  you  to understand that you can't be emotional if you are gambling with what you can afford to lose, emotions only come in place when you place a bet with a money you can't afford to lose,   and when you are in an emotional state, you start making reckless decisions, you start doing things you wouldn't have done normally and you also start chasing your loss which I believe is the end game of any money you have with you there, so always try to gamble with what you can afford to lose, so that you wouldn't be emotional.

It was really a sweet an deserving victory for the Nigerian team, because through out the game, they where the better side even though they were criticized alot by their own fans for the lack of goals in the team during the build up to this game.

I was saying it here yesterday, how I see Nigeria winning this one because of how solid they were at the back, and how poor the Cameroonian has been in the tournament, but some agreed, but some wasn't seeing it that way, and what I observations yesterday was that the Nigerian team are improving in their attacking front as the competition goes by, I just hope, they can bring the trophy home.

During my early days in the crypto industry, I had upto $158 in my wallet balance, I was told to buy only Bitcoin by the guy mentoring me, which I agreed to it, a few days later, a friend of mine told me that their is not much profit from Bitcoin, so he suggested a coin to me called Gft, I ignored the advice of my mentor and go with that of my friends.

I bought that gft at a price of $0.1100 with all my usdt, it was not even up to a week, when the price of that token fell to $0.6000, and my capital of $158 was not even up to $80 again, after upto 7 weeks, it was still coming down, I just have to cut my lost, and sold all the coin at $74, right now that coin is trading at $0.0230, after then, I learn my lesson the hard way, I never told the guy mentoring me, because I know that he would be really mad at me,  since then, I stay off any coin that is not Bitcoin.
764  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: gambling for fun vs gambling for the financial benefit. on: January 27, 2024, 04:23:39 PM
Actually in my neighborhood we don't gambles for fun that much, we only gambles for fun when we are with friends, when we are just trying to know who is more lucky, but majority of people in my neighborhood, do it because they need money, and no body that's in need of money will gambles fun. I can still recall a day I place a bet with a huge amount of money because I was seriously in need of money, at that point, I was doing it because I need money, though I lot the bet, and I really feel the impact of the loss on my finance, so it all boils down to which category you find yourself in.

766  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: January 27, 2024, 12:38:37 PM
Last season we saw Arsenal's lack of consistency towards the end. Until the end of the season, Arsenal was number one in the points table but they performed poorly in the last few matches and Manchester City took advantage of that opportunity and with a great performance at the end, Manchester City became the Premier League champions last season. This season, Liverpool is performing consistently in the Premier League and Manchester City's performance is quite good. In this case, I don't see much chance of Arsenal to be in the top two positions in the Premier League this season. Either Manchester City or Liverpool can win the title this season. However, from the position Liverpool are in now, if they perform well in the last few matches, Arsenal will also have some chances.
The chance of arsenal to take the trophy becomes even harder since manchester city has de bruyne back again to play in the main squad. It was also boosting the performance from manchester city. Arsenal was even bottling the trophy last season when it was leading the game and this time is kinda different for this club. Arsenal needs to make sure that i can go to the UCL next season. Manchester city and liverpool are the biggest obstacle for arsenal at this moment. It's caused by these clubs were even stronger than arsenal and they were also very strong.

This is making the situation very different compared to the last season when arsenal had manchester city as the only competitor to get the trophy. I was seeing arsenal has zero chance to get the trophy this season.
In my belief arsenal will be trophyless again this season. Im not even thinking arsenal to get at least a trophy this season. The same scenario is just repeating and again. Im not even sure this club can even closer to the manchester and liverpool at the end of season.

Liverpool's players gained more spirit caused by EPL trophy will be a very good gift for klopp before he will be out from the club.
That's the exact thing I was telling someone a few days back that this arsenal team lack the consistency to take the title fight down to the wire, just take a look at this 3 team, arsenal look the weakest among them all.
Am take a look at what has unfold throughout the season, due to their lack of consistency, they have been chasing unlike last year that they led they chart for a very lengthy period of time, I just don't think this arsenal team have all it takes to fight their way and take this title away from both of this team
767  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is addiction bad only when it is a problem? on: January 27, 2024, 09:37:12 AM
I dont think that is possible, if someone is truly addicted their is no way it will have positive effects on someone, because addiction is like a disease that distabilize everything about a man's life, from his way of reasoning, to his family and his financial state.

So to me gambling addict can make you do some despicable things, just as a thread I read how a man kidnap his grandchild and demand for ransom just to keep up to his gambling addiction, since he has no money to fund his addiction.

769  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Government vs Bitcoin on: January 27, 2024, 08:59:03 AM
Actually government sees Bitcoin as a threat base on the fact that since it's decentralized, they can't be in  control of it, and secondly, the existence of Bitcoin made almost near impossible to ascertain how much an individual is worth, if they want to track the finance of someone that' uses Bitcoin, that's why they still find it difficult in some countries to legalize Bitcoin in the society.

We as Bitcoineers just know that the more they fight it, the more it gain popularity among people around the world.
770  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Nigeria Has Happened to Me:Shutting Down my Business After a Year of Operations on: January 27, 2024, 06:24:13 AM
It very sad and regrettable how my beloved country naija have become so difficult to live in, because the cost of living is now trying to kill the living.

Subsidy removal and the high cost of dollar have really taken a toll on not just on our economy but also on every businesses in the country, people find it difficult nowadays to feed three square meal a day, and those doing business, the rate at which price of things are adding up daily is really unsustainable to the small business owners that don't have the capital required to cope with the present condition in the country, and the most annoying part of it is that the government are not doing anything about it,  my only prayers is that let this present condition of this country dont make it to burn when the frustration is too much on the citizens.
771  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Anthony Joshua vs. Francis Ngannou - March 9 on: January 26, 2024, 05:40:14 PM
Joshua is going to win this match, Joshua has the required experience to win this game. Let Ngannou not think that his performance against Fury is going to earn him victory over Joshua who is obsessed with coming back to the top and reclaim his belts. It's going to be a good fight no doubt about that, but I expect Joshua to knock him out.
I think most of us here think that Joshua will win, just like when Ngannou faced Fury, people thought that he has no chance but he surprise the boxing world. Now, depsite that almost an upset win by Ngannou, bookmakers are still making him as a heavy underdog, so it's up to us now to evaluete if we really believe that Ngannou really has a chance to upset Joshua on their fight.

A win for Ngannou will give him an opportunity to challenge a champion, while for AJ, he'll be back to square one again.

Though on paper this looks very predictable, but we never know what will happen in the actual fight, and since AJ is has some weakness too as evidence on his multiple losses, Ngannou might be able to exploit that.

You'll always get a surprise from a hard hitter, they only need one big punch to change the course of the fight, and Ngannou always has a chance to beat Joshua, although they both possess the power, it's the one who can take it that will win the fight, Ngannou was never been knockdown by a punch and he can take big punches, in fact in this fight he can gamble and go all out and take shots so he can deliver his shots.

That's what happened in their three losses of Joshua, his opponents did not respect his power and they knew where to hit Joshua and frustrate him, if Ngannou had done the same, Joshua would in trouble.

I hope Ngannou can surprise the world just like he did against Fury, just imagine Ngannou winning and capturing all the heavyweight title that will be for the record an amateur winning the undisputed titles, that will be boxing biggest shocker.


I think that's going to be a hell of a fight because both of them have the power required to knock each other down, but the major issue I think Anthony Joshua will have is he is fighting someone that is trying to prove a point, and it will even be more difficult for AJ because this guy Ngannou will be fighting like it's his last opportunity, so being an underdog doesn't change anything, since he is physical enough to fight Anthony Joshua toe too toe but the fight can go either side, because both men are strong.

It's really wrong to save vital information on your phone such as;
 * Login password on your browser or on your mobile apps: have you ever imagined if your phone got stolen or lost and it fell into the wrong hands, and how disastrous it might be to you? It's a very wrong move which should be avoided by all cost

* saving your Secret phase on your phone: if you are ever concerned about your on security, then this one should be avoided by all means, because it's just like when you save you login banking details on your phone, in such senario, if your phone is being compromised and it fell into the wrong hand, then you will surely pay dearly for your actions.

I would suggest that we save all our important information in writing in our jotter or dairy, because a written than words is always longer than the memory.
773  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Africa Football Discussion || Current Topic: AFCON 2023 on: January 26, 2024, 11:32:58 AM
I don't need the ideas of nobody to tell me Victor Oshime is a bad striker why? Because he hasn't scored for Nigeria International. They shouldn't forget he doesn't have the same kinds of players he has with Napoli so they don't have no grounds to compare or get angry over such a player, new set of Afcon based players ( Home Base ) should be employed to play the next World Cup Competition or the Afcon with new set of players eager to play for the club.

The game against Cameroon will be a great test. Nigerians will have to win or run back home. Cameroon will fight to give Nigeria a strong head. I'm still not clear if they'll be ables to win.
Osimhen scored in the first match against Guinea, and it seems to me that it is not worth blaming a player for scoring only one goal in three group stage matches if the entire team scored only three goals. Nigeria has a better defense, perhaps this is what they will build on, Nigeria conceded only one goal in the group stage, and Cameroon conceded 6 goals, the difference seems obvious to me. But you shouldn’t blame a player for poor performance, national team matches don’t take place so often that players can play so well.
Osimhen have never been a bad striker for the Nigerian national team, just that Nigerian pattern of play is totally different from Napolian style of play, in that Napoli team, the midfielder makes it easier for the attacker, but in the Nigerian color that's never the case.

Secondly, in as much as Nigeria vs Cameroon will always be a fascinating encounter, the Nigerian team need to step up and work on their attack, since their defense is well able to do, if they must qualify to the next round.

775  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: cashout or wait till the end? on: January 26, 2024, 08:50:07 AM
Cashing out have never been my thing, not until I got a terrible experience a few months back when I place a bet, and I got a very good amount as cash out, though it was the last game remaining, and the team i gave winning are already win 2-0, during the cause of the game, when my team is leading 2-0, they gave me like 95% cash out of the total win, so I refuse to cash out believing that the game is over, 89 minutes of play it was still 2-0, 90+1 the opposition scores one, 9+4 they got their  equalizer, and it ended like that, which made me lose everything, since them, even the slitest cash out I will take, i no longer take chances.
776  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: My idea on business strategy on: January 26, 2024, 07:51:14 AM
Location and knowledge are both good things you mentioned but their is one missing which complete the equation which is public relations. To me a business cannot flourish if you don't relate well with your customer, a customer need to feel welcome and appreciated, when you don't treat your customers right, they will definitely seek for an alternative, so your relationship with your customer is very important just as location and knowledge.

778  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: January 25, 2024, 05:24:08 PM
Without Salah, Liverpool still advanced straight to the Carabao Cup final against Chelsea. The Kop have reached the final match of the Carabao Cup for the 14th time, at least four times more than any other team in the entire history of the tournament. They are also the most successful club in the Carabao Cup, with 9 cup wins. They are facing the opportunity to increase their achievement to 10 when they are only 1 match away from the title. The opportunity to win four, including the FA Cup, League Cup, Europa League, and Premier League, continues to be open to coach Jurgen Klopp and his team. Will this season, a more pragmatic and practical Klopp's Liverpool achieve the achievement of winning many crowns?
Its not really good result for Liverpool without Mohamad Salah, first match in Premier League Liverpool won bigger score without Salah over 4-0 but second matches in EFL Cup semifinal they have got draw. But advantage for Liverpool won on first leg match and qualify to final match against Chelsea after winning aggregate 2-1.
Seems Mohamad Salah will absent for several weeks later after latest confirmation from Jurgen Klopp Salah got serious injury with his national teams, Liverpool has many crucial match next month not only in premier league but also have to play in Europe League and without Salah will make them loss bigger opportunity for winning all matches left.
Liverpool's performance without Salah worries me. As a vital player, his absence is felt. However, this team has caught my attention. They're tenacious and a winner. Remember beating Arsenal without Salah? They were strong as a team, not just one star player.
There's no need to feel worry about that. Liverpool is just doing better compared to the a few months ago. Salah's injury was not that serious and he will absence for at least 4 weeks. He will be back later and why shall we worry about that? Liverpool was strong as a team but having salah to play in the squad was making the club even better. Don't you remember when salah saves liverpool many times from the lost? It has proven that salah has a big role for liverpool and this is also the main reason klopp was not wiling to sell him.

Not having him in the forthcoming matches is concerning. Liverpool's Premier League and Europa League schedule is challenging. Their test is coming. Klopp and the team have my trust. They consistently meet challenges. Although they lack Salah, they have depth and quality. How they'll handle these critical matches intrigues me. The team's morale will also benefit when Salah returns.
Im not seeing it as a serious problem for liverpool as long as klopp will still use the same line up.
I understand perfectly well what you are trying to say, but you need to know that in bigger games like this, they need bigger player, for the bigger occasion. No team in premier league that will lose a player in the qaulity of Salah and wouldn't feel his absence,  so the match against Chelsea will really be a though match because in as much as how Chelsea have been performing badly, they hardly lose to Liverpool, it always end in a draw. The last time they met in a final like this they where separated by penalty shoot out, so this carabao cup final can still be won by either side, because they have the ability to beat each other.
779  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: The Kind of Topics to be Posted in Naija Local Forum on: January 25, 2024, 05:05:39 PM

See no body for this forum know you in person for dem to just hate you or to dy attack you constantly, na tins wey you dy do dy make people attack you. Just look at your post history how bad e be, no take the attack as insult, na just correct dem dy try to correct you, but you need to know say everybody no dy correct person desame way, some go look like insult, but if you really wan learn, then make your post dy more of Bitcoin related or how we fit secure our account, just read more from now and you go see why people dy vex for you.
780  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Make we try dey cautious online on: January 25, 2024, 04:25:28 PM
Omo i nor know if anybody for here don first experience or get person way don experience this matter way be whatsapp hack. One of my guy message me for whatsapp on monday say make i help m transfer money go one account way he go send me bcos he don reach he transfer limit but I thank God say the money way he be dey ask for nor dey my account at that time bcos I go for send m fast for am, since I know say he dey highly capable to pay back.

But yesterday my guy cor post for whatsapp status say make everybody way receive that message nor vest, say person be hack he account and he just recently get am back. The thing suprise me and i cor ask am say why he nor vest set 2 step verification for he whatsapp, he say he never first reason that side.

I bring this thing come here say make we dey cautious online, even if we know person well well, nor mean say hackers nor fit get the person account and so anytime person way dey close to us ask us for money (including bitcoin) or any sensitive information from us, make we dey careful and try to see the person first physically or at least call the person to verify bcos things dey happen online, infact even for our bitcointalk forum so, account hack don dey common, we dey see as some of our members of this forum way don come out, cor talk say nor be them borrow money with their own account and come out with proof and now since person way be wan help person now cor dey get their money back, to borrow for here nor cor easy as bfor.

My other advice na be say make anybody way never set 2 step verification for Whatsapp or any other social media account way he/she go set am. 2 step verification get different ones, just observe m and check the one way dey well and secure for, Nor go use over protectivenes tel lock account.
See YouTube video on how to set 2 step verification on WhatsApp and Facebook
Facebook and WhatsApp

Also you fit check this site for ways to set up 2 step verification for other social media and platforms.
How to set up two-factor authentication on your online services
OP na God been get your back that on Monday ohh if not you for explain trie but Wetin I never understand na how the guy scammer tak get  link to him what app OP this should explain to us that this person must have been close to him or most have some little information about him  if it is truthful
This must have teach us how we should not trust people you never can tell who is your enemy.

Back to the topic about the two ways or two steps verification so you mean person no fit enta ur whatapp without ur permission?? If u don verify am.
But OP @Amphenomenon come to think of it does this has to do wit email verification too and adding some password too because without this two some scammer are very smart and they can just use any little information to get inside ur phone.
All of us wey dy for this crypto space and those using the internet need to know that scammers are getting sophisticated everyday, them no need too much information from you for them to hack your account, some of this online scammers na wizard in computer and even coding, so for we to survive here without falling into there hand, we need to get sophisticated also with our security by paying close attention to the smallest details, no allow even the smallest details go out, if not you go pay dearly if e enter the wrong hand, and another thing wey dy really important na that 2factor verification wey the op don already talk about, people no know how important this tin be due to ignorance or lack of knowledge but anybody wey take security serious for this life no sopos carry am play.
