Such news like Chelsea will make an offer for Osimhen in January has been refuted. However it was already meaningless honestly. Because they already have Nkunku even though he is injured. When he recovers they would go on with him and then decide whether there is a need for another striker. But of course we don't know when Nkunku will recover for now.  Sad

I think Chelsea should sign a better goalkeeper rather than signing a striker now. I don't like Robert Sanchez now. He isn't a player who is at Chelsea's level at the moment. Kepa is also not coming back at least until the end of the season and I doubt his future at Chelsea later as well.

Pochettino has already shown interest in Osimhen since before the commencement of the season but it wasn’t that serious because we already signed Jackson and Nkunku but what they face currently with Jackson mot being as prolific as expected and Nkunku being out due to injury has waken Pochettino’s interest for Osimhen. We don’t know what Nkunku will offer though Nkunku can be used as a striker but his natural position is a supporting striker SS or as a WF so with Nkunku and Osimehn combining and Jackson being a substitute Chelsea’s attacking force will be unstoppable.

People always judge players too early despite knowing that a change of club affects players and they need time to settle. Sanchez is not a perfect keeper, he makes costly mistakes but so far he has not been that bad for a keeper joining Chelsea last summer. Keepers as well needs time to settle and find their feet so I think Sanchez has the potential to become just like Cech. There is really no need signing a new goalkeeper.

No doubt you guys should be smiling by now

Rhetorically why aren't you into BTC  Roll Eyes. This is even enough for you for you to get in before it pumps.

Make your research. Learn more and get into it ASAP
With bitcoin’s potential we don’t have any reason not to invest in it especially those who have knowledge about it except maybe we find ourselves in financial crisis. If it’s not convenient we should not invest yet, we should invest at our own convenience and only invest an amount we can afford to lose. Now is a good time to invest because there are speculations of bitcoin hitting a new ATH after bitcoin halving but it doesn’t mean we should invest and inconvenience ourselves. If we can’t invest now we can always invest later, bitcoin still have a long way to go and it’s never too late to invest in BTC.

There has been a lot of speculation that bitcoin will reach $110000 before 2026, while some people think bitcoin all-time-high will begin again by next year, 2024 and six digit is possible. Some people are speculating $170000 before 2025. One thing that I know is that bitcoin will reach six digit which is mostly certain.
There are lots of speculations around and everyone coming up with their own predictions and we don’t know for sure what will happen but just as you mentioned one thing for is that bitcoin will definitely hit a new ATH and we could see it get to six digits so investing now also is a good idea but majority of people don’t have huge capital to enter the market. DCA method is probably the best method for less privileged people and gradually they will accumulate alot and can also profit when the price starts going up.

Liverpool are the only team who are coming out to be so consistent in the Europa league this season,they have been so good in the couple of games they've played,and since they are the side with the most consistency in the Europa,we actually think they are the one who are favourite for the trophy.It won't be bad if they can pull out this one because it's really been long they won a trophy like this,so they need to belt up and ensure they win this one.
Liverpool are really doing something great this season,they stand second in the premier league table,and might remain in the top four this season.Its a good season for them,so they have to keep the consistency.

Talking about consistency i don’t agree with your claims, Liverpool are not the most consistent team in the Europa league so far because they lost a match to toulouse and to talk about consistency results should be the first thing you should think of. It is so obvious and i think Bayern Liverkursen are the most consistent team in the Europa league this season because they have managed to win all their matches so far in the league and they are the only team with 12 points so far.

Concluding that Liverpool are the favorites to win the cup is too early in my opinion because there are also good teams in the league and again you should be aware that teams that gets knocked out of the champions league will join them in the next round making it more challenging for them to be the favorites. I am not condemning their performance, they are good and they have improved well in recent games and they are one of the favorites to win the Europa title.

One of the most difficult parts of any journey in life is the ability to decide to "start" doing something. So many people have great ideas and plans but they never execute a bit of them because it all ends just in the mind but they cannot bring it out to becoming a reality.

The majority of individuals are not committed, and some people are simply too lazy to take action. No matter how little work you put in at first, starting is the wisest course of action because laziness won't get you anywhere. To me, having ideas is merely a waste of time if they are not implemented.

If you read through this, you might find this applicable to our journey in the forum. Some of us begged our friend to introduce us to the forum and when we came in, at the onset, our energy was high and we actively participated in the activities in the forum and made sure we followed the rules in the forum and ensured that we are practicing all the guide we receive from the forum But after some time, the energy dies down and the quality of our threads and replies starts dropping. It becomes very boring reading for the sake of knowledge and for some that have discovered the importance of merits, they might just go after merits rather than the knowledge that initially brought them to the forum.

This is true, many people had a lot of initial passion to learn, develop, and accomplish in the forum, but eventually, that enthusiasm just declines most likely because they've reached a point where they feel good about themselves or have attained a satisfying rank. I don't think the forum will live up to its expectations if every member has such a mindset. It will be difficult for new members to learn and develop here if higher rank members decide they have accomplished everything and cease being productive. As such, it is a terrible practise to encourage higher rank members to quit being productive after a certain amount of time.

I created this just to encourage myself and as many as will find this useful, to keep following the right part, keep learning, practice the little you've learned, and don't wait until you know everything about Bitcoin before you start applying the knowledge you've received. The process might get boring especially when you aren't getting the needed result but just keep trying and moving forward taking a step at a time.

You did a good job of reminding us all to keep pushing ourselves here. It can be challenging at times to keep the fire burning because we encounter challenging circumstances in life, which can make us feel depressed and negatively impact our actions. Nevertheless, we should make every effort to maintain the spirit here, and beginners should continue learning no matter how challenging or tedious it may get. Good things are ahead.

I am actually writing this post prior to the recent happening on the local board and I know this would have been hard on some newbie who are actually trying to just get involved and atleast earn some merits to grow, but like other senior member have said, spamming the local board isn't actually the right way to go about it.
The mentioned senior rank members are actually looking out for the board, they mean well for the board and we all know spamming is against the rules of the forum and since the board is part of the forum so it’s only right to discourage spamming here. Regardless of how low rank members feel they should learn to adapt to the ways of the forum since the forum have been in existence even before they created an account they have to abide by it’s ways.

The board is currently growing so it is normal to experience higher spam rates than the usual so and it’s the senior ranks members to look after the board. Newbies should not be discouraged by this statements because if they are used to spamming the local board they will find it difficult to create quality posts and grow so they should take everything as a motivation and reduce their spam rate.  

anyone who shy away from advice never seem to grow in knowledge and other aspects of life
In life people try to discourage you from everything you want to do probably because they don’t like it shouldn’t weigh you down but rather motivate you and make you stronger. Some advice may sound discouraging but doesn’t mean we should shy away from them, use it to build yourself it maybe beneficial more than you imagined.

Napoli lost at home to Empoli. Although they played dominantly from the beginning to the end of the match, the fact that they couldn't find a goal shows that there are problems in the offensive line. Napoli, who had 18 shots in the match, unfortunately lost the match because they couldn't find a goal. Empoli scored a goal in the last minute to defeat Napoli away from home without much effort.
It was a disappointing result despite the excellent performance from Napoli, to me i will say they were just unlucky not to score they had more chances and they were dominant throughout but they couldn’t utilize their chances and they were punished in the end. Empoli score in the 90th minute from a substitute player who came on and losing the match only shows that Napoli lacks a goal scorer and they miss Victor Osimehn. If Osimehn was to be in the game he would have scored a goal or two and the result must’ve been different.
787  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: For sports bettors, are you attracted with bet builder feature? on: November 15, 2023, 07:05:16 PM
I just recently explored the bet builder feature of the sportsbook I'm currently using, and I find it interesting as you can have more bets combine in just one game which is impossible on parlay bets. So I'd like to hear your thoughts regarding this, is it also profitable or just a waste of money?
This feature is profitable and at the same time carries high risks because even if one of your predictions goes wrong you will lose your money. A lot of sports bettors i see prefer this feature because with lesser amount of money you can win higher amounts. The difference with single bets is that you can stake as low as you want and the more games you accumulate the higher your potential win but for single bets you need to stake a reasonable amount in order to increase your winning except if maybe you go for bigger odds which usually is more risky and reduces your chances of winning.

It is as simple as the higher the accumulation the higher the money that you can make but the lower the chances of winning the accumulated bet. I have always prefer to go for just single game instead. Although if the lower the money you will use for it, you can try it out yourself and have the experience yourself.
I prefer to go for the multiple bet feature especially when I don’t have much money to stake but the risk is even higher than the single betting. The higher the risk the higher the win, but in my case i don’t accumulate too much games i only stick to at most 5 games per stake when i want to try the multiple betting feature.

The match between Manchester City vs Liverpool will be a tough one because both the team are looking for the balance in the table, so if anyone loss the match the loser will move to third position if Arsenal win  against Brentford, if Manchester City vs Liverpool draw and Arsenal win is an advantage for Arsenal to claim the first on table living behind Manchester City with the interval of one point. Tottenham Hotspur vs Aston villa I don't know what to say because Tottenham are lacking their few key players while the Aston villa are really in good form now, both teams need this win to create space for themselves, eventually if Liverpool loss against Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur manage and win Aston villa, I use manager because Aston villa are not like before they have in their good performance this season, Tottenham Hotspur will have opportunity to move to third place.
Liverpool have improved drastically and it seems they are finally blending well and gaining balance in the team. I always knew they would be a very strong team if the new players finally settle and find their balance, i like their style of play which is always the usual attacking style which will make the match very difficult for Manchester City. Obviously it will be an interesting game and i think Manchester City looks more likely to win but it will not be easy for them, big matches are not easy to predict just as we saw Chelsea pull off a stunning performance against Manchester City even though everyone predicted Manchester City to win so it is not easy to predict in this game as well as both teams are in the title race and every one will want to keep their title hopes alive.

Tottenham vs Aston Villa will be another interesting game to watch as both teams are in good form currently but Tottenham are not in good shape now they have alot of key players missing out which will be a huge blow for them making it difficult to easily predict a winner. Tottenham lost to wolves last week which was because of the key players missing out but i hope they can manage against in form Aston Villa.
789  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Every man you failed to lecture about Bitcoin can be a victim to scam on: November 15, 2023, 05:10:03 PM
Whenever someone come asking me about Bitcoin I sometimes look at them as another victim to scammer, at least before they learn, and that's even if they choose to stay after they get scammed, such category of people only know how to quit, I think this way because people only what to hear the good side of investment and not the bad and risky side.
A lot of people are drawn to bitcoin because of good stories they hear from people about bitcoin and that’s where they get it all wrong, everything with advantages also have disadvantages and anything with gains is likely to have losses attached to it as well but this newcomers just assume everything about bitcoin is gains. This kind of people are likely to be scammed and only the most determined ones stay back after getting scammed and it’s only after being scammed that they become so serious about learning bitcoin the proper way.

Something happened to someone who is not very close, I remember he came to me asking me about Bitcoin and how to get involved, I remember it was a bad timing for me and I told him to go online and do his own research.

Now he is a victim to a WhatsApp group that opened a exchange and told him to invest through them, I never knew he had up to $3000 for investment, he never sound like someone who is ready to invest a lot and secondly I thought he was a time waster, now he can't withdraw his Bitcoin from the fake exchange.
So sad for him to have fallen for such scam, it was already destined for him to fall for this scam that’s why he met you at the wrong time. Some disappointment can be a blessing in disguise i just hope he doesn’t give up just yet but $3000 is just too much. When someone is new to a thing doing their own research without anyone guiding them can be very difficult especially in the crypto community and they may end falling for easy scams along the line. Whenever i hear of people falling for scam i feel so sorry for them because it’s not easy to lose your hard earned money.

I think the best thing to do is to be console him in this period and advise him how risky it is in crypto and also motivate him so he doesn’t give up. He can still make that much money when he is determined and also teach him the ways of bitcoin and how to secure his assets.

should we start turning those who are not so good with finding answers away? Is that a right thing to do? I don't even know why I am feeling bad for this person, I could have saved him though.
It is not the right thing to do in my opinion because no one is born with knowledge and we don’t have the ability to successfully carry out research on our own and fully understand it. Alot of us here didn’t start on our own, we have mentors who guide us through and explain to us so it is right to pass knowledge to others who seek for them neglecting them is not the right thing to do.

Currently, Juventus open with loan option only without permanent contract and looks not excited for Manchester United want to sell Jadon Sancho, beside have Saudi Pro League teams interested for signing Jadon Sancho but he looks not accept offer for playing there and keep stay with European teams. Juventus have advantage and close chance to sign Jadon Sancho because the only one of European teams have official bid offer and Manchester United hasn't many option except get deal with Juventus although as loan option.
Sancho is still young to be playing in the Saudi league even though the league is far more relevant and important than it used to be and there are more european players there now but still european football is still the best for now. If Sancho really want to redeem himself he needs to stay in Europe and play in a good league, Juventus or Arsenal is a very good choice for him if he can perform more at any of this clubs then he would be seen as a top player he use to be.

Have interested from Premier League teams Arsenal and Newcastle United for signing Jadon Sancho but both teams not give official offer their interested for loan or permanent contract, but if Manchester United want to get above 80 million euro is very difficult because Sancho is not on the top level perform and have absent last several months with United.
Premier league is a good choice to prove United wrong that he was not the problem but the team, Newcastle are playing well and if Sancho joins he will blend in perfectly but can he outperform Gordon? I doubt it, but he has the qualities to do so.

80 million is a ridiculous price to sell Sancho judging from his performance recently he is not worth that amount and I doubt if any club can pay such high amount to sign him. Teams will bargain a lower price and i will advise united to sell him since he has decided to play elsewhere.

She said '' You people are just wasting our time, if it were the bad boys terrorizing the region you people won't stop them''. The Sars man got angry and asked the girl to come down from the vehicle, the girl came down and she was taken into their custody for further questioning about her comment. The officer asked the driver to carry the rest of the passenger and continue with the journey. Some passengers pleaded with the officer to let the girl go but they refused, they said the girl must show them evidence where she saw them not stopping bad boys. They accused the girl of working with bad boys. The girl was detained while we continued with our journey.
Her statement was bad and it is an insult to any uniform personnel more like she meant they don’t know their job and they are not doing their work properly. It’s really disrespectful and if she should put herself in their shoes and someone make such statements to her how would she feel? Before we utter any statement we need to thoroughly think of how people will perceive it first, if it will hurt anyone then we shouldn’t say them to avoid problems like this.

The girl wouldn't have found herself in that situation if she had kept quiet without saying a word.
we should learn how to control our tongue at all time. Don't say unguided words when in public place.
Don't say anything when your opinion is not sought after in a public place because you don't know who is who.     
I feel like sharing this so that we can avoid some unnecessary problems in our lives.
It serves her right, i have noticed this kinda things with girls they talk too much and they always feel they can talk about anything they like and I noticed again they don’t usually respect military personnels even though they are the ones that risk their lives to protect us. I have seen and heard couple of times where women talk bad about them and most of them are quite lucky not to be caught so this would probably serve as a lesson to others. No matter the position we find ourselves we should know how to use our tongue even though we feel we are superior to those around us, words hurts more and especially in a public place you will never know who some people are until you step on them so it’s better to mind your business to avoid unnecessary wahala.

Mauricio Pochettino might be cooking one of the best team in EPL this season, watched Chelsea games closely, everything concerning their stats have been amazing with goal contributions from their frontline this season, the fans complain but they later applauded their team with victory chants at Stamford Bridge this season. Chelsea deserved every winning points against their clash against elite teams this season, you know why? Because there performance was outstanding and brilliant, even though they lost against mediocre teams but when it comes to top team, they stand their ground and exhibits there best performance.
We have witnessed a wonderful performance from them this season and it shows they have improved so much compared to last season. Pochettino is doing a great job trying to transform the team and so far we can see the improvement and the team gradually transforming, we know it takes time for a team to fully develop into something spectacular just has Arteta transformed Arsenal and Guardiola transformed Manchester City. Chelsea have played the best games in recent weeks and their performances against Tottenham and Manchester City has really proven Pochettino might be the man for the job. Let’s hope he doesn’t lose focus and kepp up his good work because the premier league is not an easy league, the competition is high.

All that remains is for Chelsea to replicate this performance against elite club when they face smaller teams because it seems smaller teams are the most difficult teams for Chelsea to win and to make top 4 in the EPL you shouldn’t joke with smaller teams because they are the ones that can give you maximum points easily and the number of smaller clubs is more than bigger teams in the league.

I was really surprised with the way Chelsea played today. People didn’t believe that Chelsea would be able to draw Manchester City. Let's be honest, before the match started, I also believed that Manchester City would be the winner of the match, even if they wouldn't be able to score many goals. I know the match will be tough, but I was surprised to see Chelsea score four goals in the match. They didn’t allow Manchester City to go away with three points, they rather shared the points, and each team went away with one point each. I was really impressed by the way Chelsea played today, let’s just hope they are getting back to form already.
I believed chelsea will surprise us with a good performance but i never expected them to pull a performance this good against Manchester City, we all know the result when chelsea play manchester city but this time around chelsea surprised us. Chelsea have been excellent against bigger opponents even though everyone expected them to lose against them. The match is the best EPL match i have watched so far this season and I think chelsea were the better side and they deserved to win in my opinion had it been they were more clinical. Lets hope chelsea can maintain this momentum and play with the same spirit in upcoming matches after the international break.

Harry Kane left Tottenham and joined Bayern Munich to win title with his club because he had some personal awards in Tottenham but he did not get any title with them. I am sure personal award will not be his main concern and with Bayern Munich, he will get a title in Bundesliga with them. They are a big dominator in Bundesliga in last 10 years and very few seasons they lost the trophy to other clubs like Dortmund, Stuggart ...
Of course personal awards will not be his main concern but with his current form now he will definitely win personal awards this season, he has been excellent since joining Bayern Munich and it makes me wonder if the league is too easy or he has improved so much. He joined Bayern Munich to win trophies and as a striker he is playing his part already but they still find it difficult to top the league despite winning matches and scoring goals, Bayern Leverkusen are having a great season as well and they are the only competitors so far but the question is can they keep up and be consistent enough till the end of the season? I doubt if they can. Bayern Munich have higher probability of winning the league else Harry kane would go another season without winning a trophy again because winning the champions league will be difficult. The champions league and Bundesliga are the only titles he  can challenge for this season.

Change is a constant thing in life and as time passes we are likely to witness technological advancement but no one knows for sure when that will happen. For a new development to emerge and surpass bitcoin then it would have to make use of a different technology other than cryptographic blockchain technology else it would just be seen as another altcoin and I don’t think there will be any altcoin that can surpass bitcoin. If eventually there comes a new technology that beats blockchain technology and is also aimed towards improving on the bitcoin function of decentralization, anonymity and store of value then it is a good thing for cryptocurrency community but it doesn’t mean bitcoin will be forgotten, the two can exist on their own and it will be a win for us either way.

I don’t think this can happen anytime soon but if in the future it happens we would welcome the new technology if will actually serve us in a good way.

I don't think Chelsea has recovered from their downturn after winning over Tottenham, the match summary notes that Tottenham had to play with 9 players after two of their players received red cards. Chelsea's first goal came from a foul by Christian Romero which made the match 1-1. Chelsea increasingly had the upper hand after the referee issued a second red card to a Tottenham player, they were able to control the match more easily after Tottenham were two players short.
This victory is at least a motivation for Chelsea players when facing Manchester City, but Chelsea's performance is still unstable, meaning they will experience difficulties when facing Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
Well I wouldn’t say Chelsea have recovered from the downturn just yet but there have been a lot of improvement in performance so far and it is just unfortunate that they still sit at no. 10 on the table. They have been excellent against stronger teams but they have not been able to control and win smaller matches and that’s why i still think they have not recovered from the downturn fully. They have quality players but it will take time to blend fully since most of these players were gathered from different teams but i believe when they blend fully they will become a top team once again.

They managed to win Tottenham with quite some margin which was due to the red cards they received but still I wasn’t convinced with performance of the attacking players, they wasted a couple of chances otherwise the result must have been far different, they could’ve scored 5+ goals in the match. Winning the match will definitely be a good boost and motivation, and they would want to bring the same energy against Manchester City on sunday. To win against Manchester City, Chelsea need to be very clinical and make sure to utilize any chance they get.

I feel they are better now than they were at the beginning of the season, they might not be performing at the level initially predicted but gradually Chelsea are stepping up their performance. Against Arsenal and Tottenham, Chelsea looked like a different team but against the defending champions it will be a tougher test, how well they can be able to stop Manchester City is still uncertain until weekend.
Yeah, Gradually they are stepping up but to make it to the top 4 in the premier league you need to have a consistent performance and also you need to make sure to conquer matches against smaller and average opponents to acquire more points since it will be challenging to get maximum points against bigger opponents and that is what Chelsea lack currently, they are unable to control matches against smaller teams that’s why they still sit in no.10 on the table.
797  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Pay attention to bear run without fear. on: November 11, 2023, 12:10:05 PM
I never knew that when you pay attention to bear run when you have some money saved for it, it will help you to make a good profits when bull run occur in the market which, I have noticed it from some advice some professional BTC investors gave to me in this Naija local board, to invest what I can avoid to lose.
The perfect time to invest is during the bear market when prices are low so you can realize a reasonable amount of profit when bull arives. Investing in bitcoin is a strategic decision to always try to beat the market that’s why it is advised to invest during the bear run (buy at a low price and sell at an higher price)because when the bull run arrives, bitcoin price will rise making it more difficult to invest at that time and after buying you may be only realize a little amount of profit which is probably not worth the risk. Always buy the dip (at a time when price is down) so you can sell when price is higher.

Since I started paying attention to bear run to buy BTC monthly with little money budgeted which is #12k and I have been able to maintain it two months now to buy 0.0008 BTC, and I will still buy more once this month salary is be release because I know that I will succeed whenever the bull run occur in the market. I used to afraid of using above #12k to buy BTC because I was told that BTC will not live forever, that it will disappear one day until I payed attention to people advice and to my personal research too that gave me the boldness to bear what so ever that will happen, than to make sure I invest #12k in that particular bear run. Hope this decision I made to be investing #12k in BTC monthly is a good decision? I believe using bear run to invest is a good strategy many investors are using to win from their investment.
You have really done a good thing for yourself by buying on a timely basis and This method you have adopted is called DCA method of investing. For people like us who find it challenging to invest a huge amount in bitcoin at a time the best option is to adopt DCA method which will help us to accumulate bitcoin gradually and before you know your portfolio will grow beyond your expectation and you will be fully ready for the bull run.
You made a good decision by investing N12k monthly because there are some people who invest even lower amount on that basis even when they earn more than you but we shouldn’t criticize their efforts because they are investing what they can afford to lose and so are you and also we as humans face different problems and have different responsibilities which limits our financial freedom.

Why does it have to be about poor countries? If a country is rich its ok for its citizens to lose a bunch of money?

You as a person decide whether to gamble or not to gamble. The country IMO has nothing to do with it. Even if the country restricted or limited gambling, there are still ways people would gamble so you really cannot blame it all on the government.

At some point people have to be responsible for their own actions man. Can't just always think someone else is at fault.
Yes this is true, a country’s Government should not be blamed for a citizen’s mistakes because everyone from the age of 18 is allowed to gamble and so they are adults so they have the right to make decisions and they can differentiate between good and bad so they should be responsible for their own actions. An adult should be aware of the risks involved in gambling and it’s their duty to learn and understand what they are getting themselves into before engaging in it.

All the stats being made on gambling about losing rates doesn’t matter much to me because just as much as people lose money they also win but a lot of people like to talk about the losses incured which IMO is normal just that gamblers need to regulate the rate at which they gamble.

There is this guy I followed on X, he is very active with updates regarding Bitcoin, he trades most of the time and also shares his opinion on bitcoin moves. Just some days ago, he was robbed right in his home and his bank account was empty, the bitcoin and other crypto were emptied. From his screenshot, he stored his coins in the exchange which is the first red flag and showing off again on the internet is another red flag.
That is so regrettable and depressing, people are just so cruel that they can just rob someone of all their money and life savings. They have worked hard for it so instead of robbing them fully and taking from them, why don't you do the same? When someone has worked so hard to improve themselves and then someone comes along to take everything from them, it can be enough to make them consider suicide. Nobody has the right to steal from him, even if he behaved badly by failing to implement the best privacy standards. I believe he must’ve learned his lesson for not keeping his life private and i believe from now he would make changes and improve on that.

Don't share with people that you own a coin: There is joy when you tell friends about Bitcoin in other to encourage them or tell them about your journey but never tell them the amount you hold, the place you buy or how you store them. Some people have bad intentions even when you think they are your friends. Even if you save your Bitcoin in a hardware wallet that no one will access, you don't have to share everything with the public, it should remain private
There is definitely a special kind of feeling when you tell someone about bitcoin or owning a coin, especially when you are trying to encourage them to invest, but we still need to be careful with who we tell this to; tell only people you trust and, as the OP mentioned, never disclose the amount you own and, more importantly, never disclose where you store your assets because you never know who wishes you bad and has bad intentions towards you.  

Worst of all, if you use social media to showcase your riches and talk about how much money you make, you could be targeted by crooks like this user from X. Many will learn from his mistakes, and many will understand why privacy is so vital in the crypto industry. Even outside of the crypto industry, anonymity is crucial since I recently heard about a musical artist who was robbed because his partner mistakenly revealed a detail of their location online.  We currently live in a world where privacy is crucial, therefore we must take it seriously in all we do.

Learning to live a private life gives you good privacy: Some people don't value their privacy, they see it as nothing but in fact when you have high privacy, it will be impossible for people to know much about you, it will be impossible for people to know your next move and how you plan to move, nothing goods like much privacy.
People lack regard for privacy, they don't care about it, they don't perceive it as a serious issue, and this is sometimes the source of their issues. Living a low-key life is ideal, but some people want to brag about their riches and share what they own with the public, which is a poor practise in the cryptocurrency sector. No one will ever make you their target if you don't mention how much bitcoin you have, thus we should all learn from this story.

They were better then Al Taawon the entire match and crowned the win with two goals. Mitrovic going for that top scorer position in the league and is really close to Ronaldo.
Al Hilal seems to be better than all the teams in the Saudi league, they keep winning matches and they don’t show any signs of slowing down. I think it is too early to predict who wins the league but if they continue like this Al Nassr will find it difficult to keep up.

Mitrovic is really closing in on Ronaldo with just 3 goals behind him, if will be a good challenge for them to fight for the highest goal scorer but i still think it will be difficult to catch up to Ronaldo considering the number of goals Al Nassr recently scores in matches and also Ronaldo is more likely to score 3 goals in a match than Mitrovic and if he scores an hattrick it will become a huge gap for Mitrovic to catch up.

The Saudi Pro League crown have been handed over to be a competitive fight between Al Nassr boss, Luis Manuel Ribeiro de Castro vs Al Hilal manager, Jorge Fernando Pinheiro de Jesus. Who's taking home the SPL crown? Checking the similarities, both teams have the best quality squad necessarily available to upgrade their perspective performance, looking at both team's top goal scorers, for Al Hilal, we have Mitrovic and Salem Al Dawsari while for Al Nassr, we have Cristiano Ronaldo and Sadio Mané who happens to be my favorite duo for SPL games.
The team taking home the SPL crown is still unknown right now but it definitely will be between Al Hilal and Al Nassr because they are the two teams with a different mentality, a winning mentality. I just wait for their match against each other to see the best team in the league this season. I believe any team that wins will become the champion of the league but i expect a draw from the fixture though Al Hilal have higher possibility to win because they have a stronger defense than Al Nassr.
