Take advantage of the Bitcoin halving and make a small profit
the way it ought to be should be that you consider Bitcoin as the main dorman that takes in all the profit you get from whatever gambling you did with altcoin and you just reinvest it into Bitcoin .

So you have a narrative as this;
Should I make profit from my junk coin during the bull, it all goes into buying more Bitcoin. So, yeah you need to sell junkcoin and buy Bitcoin, that's the real deal.

PSG lost the Champions League semi-final 1st leg with Dortmund 0-1. At Dortmund's home ground they attacked well enough to beat the opposition and they are one goal ahead and will surely do well in the 2nd leg to reach the final. Although we have seen two teams reach the semi-finals in the Champions League this season, Bayern Munich and Dortmund in the German League, any team in the German League will definitely try their hardest to qualify for the final match. There is still a good chance that the two German League teams will enter the final, in which case the next matches will be even more interesting. Anyway, as of now Dortmund showed their best performance in last night's match and they were the most excited to get the win. Since the next match will be held at PSG's home ground, they will be excited and will try to attack the most in order to reach the final. And this match was much more exciting but although PSG had a lot of possession but their attack line was also good but they could not stop the ball in the opponent's goal bye they lost.
one beauty about playing as an home team is that with the support of your large fans and because you don't want to let them down, it gives this extra energy to put in the fight and every cheer is a damn encouragement that pushes you to go the extra miles. Dortmund made great use of this and outplayed PSG throughout the first half. Hakini wasn't able to subdue the young Dortmund left back and dembele wasn't doing well with his passes and it made it all deficult for mbape to have a comfortable opportunity at the attack. The good thing is that it's just a difference of one goal and going into the PSG home, if they will be able to cease the opportunity effectively and score two goals ahead of the Dortmund team, maybe PSG can think of securing a spot in the champions league finals but as it stands now, Dortmund is the only team that's at an advantage above the other three teams in the semi finals and if I'm asked to give my honest take on what the finals might look like based on what played out in the first leg, we might have a dramatic turn of event where Dortmund might end up facing Bayern munich in the finals cause from intensity point of view, both Dortmund and Bayern munich played far better than PSG and real Madrid.

Regardless of whatever strategy the coach uses, the most important thing is the final result, as you said, there is nothing embarrassing about defensive strategy.

However, destroying Leverkusen is not an easy thing because many teams have tried it throughout this season and none have succeeded.
Leverkusen is a strong team, we have to admit that and Roma is actually also a strong team when managed by De Rossi but in their last few matches in the domestic league we can see that their performance is a little bad so this is a benchmark for the first leg match they played Leverkusen.

I still favor Leverkusen, I think that's realistic because in terms of overall strength we can see from the start of the season that Leverkusen is much stronger and more consistent.
I agree that whatever strategy you use, Leverkusen is a team that will not be beaten that badly. I feel like the yare going to be doing quite well here as well, too many people are talking about the possibilities and I understand that because we have seen stuff that we thought wasn't possible, even the most recent Atalanta and Liverpool game is a great example of that, so people are saying what if Leverkusen loses like that as well? We thought Liverpool wouldn't, so why would it be different for Leverkusen, there is a possibility. But I believe that Liverpool isn't as good as Leverkusen when it comes to taking it seriously, I am not talking about talent here, I am just saying Leverkusen takes this more seriously than Liverpool ever did.

That is just the fact you cannot compare when it comes to seriousness between Liverpool and Bayer leverkusen, because we all know that Bayer leverkusen have really been serious this season. because the record that they have so far is a good one: not losing a single game unless a draw or a win, which is like a threat to AS Roma, but as many are saying, AS Roma will bring a strategy that will help them win, which they might call a 50/50 strategy because it might favor them and it might not. But to be sincere, if care is not taken, the game might end in a draw or a win for Bayer Leverkusen, which will not be favorable for them because their aim to get a trophy this season will be tarnished, which if they tried more, they might achieve next year.
when it comes to Bayern Leverkusen, it's never about the individual players being too exceptional but it's more of thier fighting mentality that makes them fight till the end of the whistle. You can't even compare such kind of mentality to what's common with Liverpool even though they have great players like moh Salah and an incredible defender like van dijk. There is certainly going to coke a time when they will probably loose in a match but even when it happens, it doesn't change the fact that they have built a great reputation and name that can't be denied.

The Nigerian passport has been ranked among the worst on the globe highlighting significant challenges for Nigerian travelers seeking international mobility.

As a Nigerian,if you are traveling outside Africa,once you present your International passport at the airport,if other nationals are been search for 10mins, you as a Nigerian you will be thoroughly search for at least 45mins which is very bad.

https://punchng.com/list-nigerian-passport-ranked-among-worst-globally/
The truth is that we need all these kinds of negative remarks to remind us that we need to fix our country and that there is no place like home. If we value our country and even make it difficult for outsiders to access our country without proper scrutiny, then we may start getting positive recognition from outsiders.

You can't disrespect yourself and expect others to respect you. It's clear we don't even value our nation and with every slightest opportunity we have we want to run out of this country. even after we receive all the molestation from these folks, when they come here, we treat them with great honor and protect them with the best of our security forgetting we can't get half of that kind of treatments from them. Is Nigeria really this bad? As much as we know that we still have some bad eggs here, can we say we are the worst? There are countries where illegal drugs are what's common in that region and they don't get the kind of ill-treatment we receive from the global stage and I still think that it's so because we don't value our worth.

If we are ready to come back and fix our nation with all the abundance of resources we have, would there be any need to go outside the shores of this country to look for greener pastures when we are the greener pasture itself?

We should stop putting too much pressure on the male child, because they also feel pain.
 
The male child without money is not useless, they also deserve to live without being pressured!
this is the more reason why young men die too fast and end up getting involved in bad activities that damns them in the long run because of the pressure that's coming from different angles on them. No one wants to understand that you're just as human as your female counterpart. You just have to make money if not you've lost your place in the society.

It's the stage the society has gotten to and every man has hard to adopt to this reality with massive battles going on in Thier life's and yet no one cares to give a listening hear to him. He has to prove to people that he is strong regardless of what he is currently going through and it gets even worse for most persons from Africans descend that have to carry out extended responsibility that makes life very deficult for the average man.

I'm saying this is because the earlier they decide who will be the permanent coach the better,
Finidi George has been handed the job as the coach of the Super Eagles.
Quote
“The Board of the Nigeria Football Federation on Monday approved the recommendation of its Technical and Development Committee to appoint former ace winger Finidi George as Head Coach of the Senior Men National Football Team, Super Eagles.”

Who knew that Finidi George was an assistant to the former coach Jose Poseiro for 20 months?

source

it's a good development to see that we're now working with our local coach and not always relying on external person's to do all our coaching work for us. With the experience he has hard with jose poseiro and the fact that he knows the kind of football Nigerian players are used to, I think he deserve the chance he has received now and I only wish the government will give him the needed financial support that will help him carry out his coaching responsibility very well.

Although his first two games as an interim coach against mali and ghana was below what was expected with a very casual play against Ghana that saw them having a narrow win against Ghana and and then loosing 2:0 to Mali, he has a huge responsibility to prove a point that he has what it takes to coaching the supper eagles.
88  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: May 01, 2024, 05:56:50 AM
Honestly, I didn't think that the match would end in a draw because I thought Real Madrid would be successful against Bayern, but in fact Bayern was right. really strong. Of course both team coaches will show their best performance in the second leg of the semifinals later

The match was too exciting with the score chasing between the two teams. Too worthy of being the most anticipated semi-final match. It was not easy for Real to overcome Bayern because the pressure coming from Bayern's home field was really great for Real, but the champion's bravery helped Real overcome that pressure and win a valuable draw at home of Bayern.

Real has many advantages in the return match. However, they should learn from Barca's lesson in the quarterfinals when they let home field advantage become their weakness and were unfortunately eliminated.
The match, however, was dominated by Real from the start and the team led the game in the first half. An interesting game was played between the two teams and the game ended in rivalry and competition. Bayern Munich were the most excited at home after halftime as they went two goals ahead. However, Real Madrid later successfully saved a penalty and leveled the game before the match ended in a draw. However, the strong attack that Real Madrid has shown at home is something no other team can show, but it was very difficult to equalize their home match against Bayern Munich in the semi-finals. Since the two teams are 2-2 in the first leg, both the teams have a chance to reach the final in the next match. Moreover, we can be more sure that Real Madrid team will play at their home ground, so it will attack more strongly because they are more excited about the Champions League. And since Real Madrid won the Champions League, the King may not be able to weaken them by attacking Bayern Munich, but Madrid still has a good chance of entering the final match this season.
it doesn't seams to me that you washed that match. Although I'm an hard core real Madrid supporter, Bayern munich played incredibly well from the start of the till the end of the first half. It's just that they where unlucky with all the clear chances they hard and couldn't convert them to goals. Right from the first two minutes of the play, bayern munich hard and incredible chance that would have made the game very deficult for the real Madrid team but throw it all into the air and couldn't make good use of it. What helped real Madrid to get a little edge in the first half is due to how clinical vini jnr is in front of the goal. He didn't need to much chance and several attempts before scoring. He got one chance and baried it straight at the back of the net but even after that goal, the home still outplayed real Madrid.

The second half comeback was incredible and within a space of less than ten minutes bayern munich was able to have an incredible goal from sane putting the ball at a tight corner and the real madrid keeper couldn't prevent the ball from getting into the goal post. it didn't take long before they hard another penalty that seal it 2:1. If Jude Bellingham had been more involved in the game maybe it would have been more easier for real Madrid to score more goals but he was to calm and reluctant to be very honest and all the responsibility have to be shouldered by vinicious jnr who after scoring his first incredible goal went on to score again after Rodrygo was foweled in the 18 yard box and with a calm and direct shot he he equalized and brought the game to a 2:2 draw.

This is an amazing first leg of the semi finals and today, PSG will take on Dortmund in Thier first leg encounter, most analyst speculated that real Madrid was going to win against Bayern munich but that never happened and now alot are still saying that PSG will win Dortmund. Well, it's only time that will tell but the reality is that no comes into the champion League semi finals as a joker. The game is on the battle is still tough we wish the best team wins at the end of the day.

EFCC has started arresting BBC operators again. They even arrested speculators few weeks ago. This time, not also only BDC operators that were arrested, they also arrested some traders.

https://punchng.com/bdc-operators-arrested-as-naira-weakens-to-1419/

I saw a truth in this:

https://punchng.com/floods-currency-devaluation-set-to-propel-nigerias-inflation-in-2025/
they should leave the BDC operators and arrest the likes of adeyemi deji who has been seriously advocating that Nigerians should convert all their fiat to dollar

Let me quote it for you:

Reuters noted that the acute shortage of dollars in much of the continent including Angola, Nigeria, and Zambia has often put home inflation under significant strain due to a reliance on single commodity currency inflows such as crude oil and copper.

We have always be discussing this to be the issue but which the government neglected.

@promise444c5 and @ Hewlet. Can you see that you are correct. The root cause is not tackled. A country with a population of over 200 million that prefer to reply more on imported products.
the issue is that we don't even want to accept the fact that we are at a very critical stage as a nation where almost everything isn't working at all and we're still being hypocritical about setting out real policies that will help remedy the whole situation. Even if after arresting all the BDC operators and then they are able to ban crypto and forex entirely, the only thing they've successfully done is to set the country on a time bomb that will explode in no time. Is it not foolishness that the viability of our economy is totally dependent on the effect of our foreign exchange even when we have all it takes to meeting at least 70% of our national needs locally? Is it not bad enough that outside of oil, no real attention is payed to other sectors that have proven to be a good source of revenue generation for us In the past? Our educational sector is dying and our young student have lost interest in the schooling system because we Don't want to diversify into other sectors outside of oil that will help in creating more jobs for graduate and you don't think that's enough problem to solve and you think by just fucking around with mere clout that doesn't solve real economic problem you can make the country better? It's a shame.

As one of the biggest and best matches is going to take place tonight, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid face one of the most interesting ones. Although currently we don't consider Bayern Munich to be strong, they haven't performed very well in the German league but they have reached the semi-finals in the Champions League. However Bayan Munich may not be able to win with Madrid now that they will be overwhelmed by their strength. Real Madrid's current players are all good stars and they have enough performance to lead the team to victory level. However, Bayan Munich's defensive line is weaker than that of Real Madrid, which means that the goalkeeper may not be able to defend the goal well if the Madrid team attacks strongly. As today's match will be played at Bayern Munich's home ground, they are ready to launch a strong attack. But Real Madrid won't give up so easily at the Bayan field, but with their powerful attack, they will win the first leg in the semi-finals.
I wish real Madrid will underate Bayern munich this way and they will end up getting a tough beating of their Life. This is the championship for crying out loud. No one comes this far to allow another walk past them just like that. Bayern munich is just a step away from playing in the finals and you are going to see a totally different team this night.

There is obviously an high probability of real Madrid winning this game but it will be a huge shoke to everyone if Bayern end up winning against real Madrid. Have you also considered the possibility that we might at the end of the day see Bayern munich playing against Dort mond in the finals? That will be really interesting to see all the big clubs paving way for this two in the finals.

Hardship isn't a good thing anyone should wish for and regardless of the fact that it shapes you to be become more disciplined regarding how you spend your money and how you manage the resource you have at your disposal, it's still not a justification that you should gain your discipline through hardship.

People still loose there money even while they are still poor and facing real hardship doesn't mean that you can't be unlucky at some point and loose your money in the process but its far better to loose money while you're rich and in a stable economy that when you're poor. In an economically viable nation, even when you've lost your money or an asset,  it's easy to get it back from people that might have seen it since they sre likely not struggling financially but that's not possible in an economy that's bad.

Should they now deny intending users access to a mobile banking service because old users supposedly used this service in a wrong way? What happens to fetching out those that have used these platform to carry out illegal foreign exchange transactions?

If you build a company and you are making 1 million dollars as profit every month and then spends 6000 thousand dollars to pay your works and then you are given the opportunity to buy robots for 1 million dollars that will do the jobs your works are doing without it having faults for 10 years won't you go for it there by sacking your workers.
In the next 10 years there will be high rate of unemployment in the world because job's that should be done by humans are now given to robots and by so doing it will also affect the economy of the world.
upgrade yourself to the extent where you won't be afraid that robot is coming to steal your job from you. No doubt, robots can do most things that an average person out there knows how to do and for some, they can easily go out of the market if they aren't prepared to face this reality and make adequate adjustments in terms of there level of expertise and skill set  such that they will always remain relevant regardless of the level of technological advancement that has hit the world.

Robots where created to ease the burden that is associated with certain tedious job that's done by man and if we're being truthful, there hard been a massive improvement on works that's now left under the care and watch of robot's and humans can now focus more on the more technical aspect of the jobs that requires critical thinking and human problems solving ability rather the burdensome exertions o physical energy.

You actually right now doubt, real madrid are the clear favourite to win this one here, but you need to understand that this is football, no team is am alien, they are beatable, their major downfall would be if they think they can just roll away Bayern Munich easily as the media made it looks like, it's a champions league semi final, so it's will definitely going to be a very bad idea if Bayern Munich is underated, let's not forget that Bayern Munich is experience and also have the same rich history in the uefa champions league as real madrid, as a neutral fan that I am, I will definitely just go out and enjoy the game with a bottle of beer, because I know that it's will definitely going to be a fascinating encounter between them.
I am pretty sure that the coaches are doing what they can to remind the Real Madrid players about this reality, because even if they are the favorites, there is not a single team that can reach the semifinals just based on their good fortune, all the teams that are there, reached that stage because they deserve it, and even a moment of carelessness is all what Bayern Munich may need to surprise them and the rest of the world by getting a win when not many expected it.
I agree with you, luck is always there but it doesn't always come in every club match, of course every player has a hand in managing their game when facing tough opponents, at least give good resistance in every match then the result will never be  lie to the final result, at least Real Madrid and Bayern Munich deserve to be there because the mentality and play they make is the result of the hard work of the players, so it's no wonder these two clubs are always in the European competition in the Champions League Semi Final match every season  .
it's going to be a tough game for real Madrid firstly because they are the favourite side and lot's of people will root for them to win Bayern munich which will give Bayern that sort of underdog mentality that will help them in the game. It's a game that's going to be very difficult to predict and it would never be a clear win from iether of the teams. Whoever gets the first goal wouldn't necessarily win in the case and you should expect that kind of real Madrid vs man city game where we hard lots of goals coming in from both teams and you have a lot of energy being put out into the game that only resulted in real Madrid wining the match because they where just lucky on that day. It's going to be a bit of luck because both teams are exceptional and it would just be too bad for iether of the teams that has hard luck in terms of thier goal scoring ability.

Liverpool are losing power, Man City and Arsenal are working hard to win every game. Meanwhile, Sheffield United has been confirmed to be relegated. The top ranking is very exciting, but Liverpool seems to have a problem. I saw Moh Salah arguing or arguing with Kloop when he was about to come on as a substitute against West Ham. Looking at the opportunity, Liverpool still have a chance, but it seems to look very heavy. Only Man City has the best chance because Man City has 1 game less.
once you start having issues with your key players at this critical moment when you need good point the most, it goes to show you're not even ready to end in that third position they are currently occupying. What played out between Mo Salah and kloop goes a long way to show what has been happening behind the scene from the training ground and no doubt, Mo Salah hasn't been in his best form of recent but i think in that kind of game, bringing him into the game that late might have been the cause the Salah's reaction.

As for the race at the top two position, it's getting really interesting everyday going forward and as it stands, arsenal is certainly putting in the effort to remain on the winning ways with an impressive goal difference it's getting all heated up at the top. They should just hope that city looses of one the games just so they can stand strong at the top spot of the premier League table cause anything that makes them loose in a game or draw in one of there next encounter, the title is gradually shifting from white hands into the city side.

https://businessjournalism.org/2023/12/war-profit/
as sad as this sound, I can't deny the reality that there is every reason to believe this ascertion. You look at what happens during the Russia Ukraine war, there was little or no sympathy at all for human lives that's constantly going down everyday the war continues but you find massive support and sales of weapon to Ukrainian just to fuel the war. For what purpose is those weapons when peace should have been the best option?

We've seen how in several instances they've always made statement regarding there interest to send weapons to nations at war to help them fight there enemy when they should be supporting peace and standing strong against war. The United state stands as a strong nation in the world map whose influence affect the world globally and the least they should have used such influence in combating is to preach peace and stop this production and sales of weapons to nations at war. I guess the revenue they are generating from sales of weapons won't let them close there eyes to such opportunities and even if lives keep going down because of their consistency in supporting war and terrorism, it doesn't make much difference to them.

I kind of know this relates a lot with what's happening in gambling as it's a normal thing to kind of look at patterns that have played out in the past and use it as a guide that kind of help us decide how we play out bets and sometimes it end up working out for us and we tend to feel a sense of assurance that we now have a pattern we can work with forgetting that it's gambling and there is little of pattern but more of randomness in making our stakes.

You find it alot in sports betting while doing analysis before staking a match and you will normally see analyst make statement like, the last time this particular team won against this team is ten years ago and haven't lost till date and it might affect a gamblers decision to favour a particular team as it's likely assumed that the pattern will repeat itself. Team like Bayern Leverkusen that have been on a not loosing stride after almost 46 matches have made it look like a pattern at the moment and such kind of thing can affect a gamblers perception to believing that it's now a pattern and so yeah, randomness can Sometimes be mistaken as pattern. However, some games, like poker, involve skill and strategy alongside randomness, so players can use patterns and information to make decisions. Overall, understanding the balance between randomness and patterns can help players make informed choices in gambling.
