Scammers will always look for loopholes to gain access to your funds, so you have to prevent them from gaining access. Social media is the main breeding ground for scammers. They will always present deals that are attractive and difficult to resist. Don't be greedy to accept these deals because they can be baits to steal from you. Avoid clicking on any link you see on the internet because they might not be safe. Do your research on any project before investing because it is important to verify everything information we come across in the crypto space.

But my advice to newbies is to focus on only Bitcoin because it is the most reliable cryptocurrency. Consider keeping your coin in a trustworthy decentralized wallet preferably an air-gapped electrum wallet or a hardware wallet. Also, ensure that you download the Electrum wallet from the Electrum website to avoid falling victim to scammers. 

It is a sad reality that people from economically disadvantaged countries are gambling too much. But the main reason is that they are using gambling as an alternative source of income because of the economic hardship. My country is also facing the same condition as Greece and people are gambling very high. But the truth is that people are also benefiting from gambling which is why they are still gaming.

A government that is going through financial problems will be seeking diverse means to get revenue. Therefore you would not expect the government to stop issuing licences to casinos because it is a good source of internally generated income. The government will not also want to limit people from gambling because they also need to raise funds from taxes. It is mostly rich nations like Australia that make such laws to limit gambling because they have many other sources of income to fund their budget.

However, the government needs to put viable laws in place that will regulate the operation of the gambling industry to avoid diverse abuse of the sector. These casinos should be mandated to engage in fair and true publicity and there should be diverse mechanisms put in place to checkmate gambling disorder. We all know that this government needs money in the form of license fees and taxes from casinos but there is also a need to protect the interest of gamblers in the country.

You don't have to conclude hastily about a service until you have followed and exhausted all the procedures to have your issues solved. Coming up with negative comments about the casino is improper because they have a reputation to protect. If you use the necessarily customer channels to present your request, I believe you will be well attended to. And if they have given you a timeline to look into the matter just be patient, it will definitely be handled. You are not the only gambler using the platform, maybe you are account has something usually that needs to be checked.

Relax Coins.game will not disappoint you if your claims are genuine and you have not infringed on the terms of service.

I quite agree with you that the reason you are gambling determines how you gamble. If you are into gambling for quick money you will always lose control of your gambling behavior. You will always be tempted to stake higher and chase losses if you see it as a source of income. Such reminders will not control gambling disorder because it is caused by an inner drive. If you gambling within your means and have a gambling budget, you don't really need such reminders.

Pasting reminders all over your room or on the screen of the computer will do little without a genuine desire to gamble responsibly.But beginners could adopt the pattern maybe it might be effective because you never know until you try.

Everybody will not be a long-term investor because they might aim at making short-term profits. Many people are not patient to wait for a long term to see their coins grow. Such people will choose to trade. However, engaging in trading without requisite knowledge will lead to unexpected losses.

You can only suggest to your friend and let him make his decision. Some people can take the risk of investing in altcoins because of several reasons. Investing $150 in Bitcoin might not bring a large profit, so he might just want to gamble it with altcoins. You can advise him to consider using DCA to stack  bitcoin.

It is not true that Liverpool has already qualified for the Europa League Round of 16. A win against Toulouse would have given them the ticket to the next round since Union SG failed to beat LASK. But as it stands now, the Reds must have to win the match against LASK at the end of this month. The Liverpool team is suffering from injuries and Jurgen Klopp made nine changes from players that played a draw in their last game against Luton. The team was not coordinated which made them fail to win a team they won 5-1 in England.

Toulouse has just managed to win three games in all competitions. So almost everyone thought that Liverpool would win the game so most people would bet in favour of the club. This is the beauty of gambling, it is just unpredictable fun.

$50,000 is above what some top government officials earn annually in my country, so the sum is far above the minimum wage of most workers. It is not bad to have big goals but how you intend to achieve this goal is very important. How much are you budgeting for gambling for the year and what are the strategies you intend to use to achieve this feat?

Another factor to consider is that the result of gambling is unpredictable, so achieving a target is always difficult. We shouldn't see gambling as a full-time job just as my friend will always tell me that I shouldn't expect much from gaming. It will just be better to have a gambling budget but projected income shouldn't be included. This is because you can get below your expectations but in some cases, you might also win big.

Having an open mind to accept the outcomes of your gambling activities for the year will be better than having a betting goal.

Young people are tech-savvy that's why they are attracted to Bitcoin. They are also well aware of its benefits which outweigh fiat and some investments. Regarding Bitcoin outperforming gold I read a  research that indicated that the cryptocurrency indeed provided stronger short-term risk hedging in the G7 stock markets compared to gold during the COVID-19 and Russo-Ukrainian War periods. I hope the sudden love that institutional investors such as Cathie Wood are expressing towards bitcoin is genuine and will last for a long time.

It has also been observed that Bitcoin is also affected by other economic conditions such as inflation and interest rates, especially in the US. The COVID-19 pandemic and the energy crisis caused by Russia and Ukraine are all examples of the connection between Bitcoin and the global economy. For now, it can be viewed as a hedge against inflation in nations that are going through hyperinflation mostly in developing nations. However, it could also be a good inflation hedge if it is held for a long time.

I don't think this topic belongs here since the event is not related to Bitcoin but involves a shitcoin called Korvio Coin. The developers of this coin connived with some government officials to scam the public. This is what happens to greedy or uninformed people who are enticed by quick money or blinded by ignorance. It is also a lesson for people to do their research and invest in only reputable coins like bitcoin. It is also good to know that the investigation into the crime is ongoing and some people connected to the scam have been arrested. I feel sorry for the victims who have lost close to $300 million to this scam.

The match would have been an easy win for Manchester United but the red card against Marcus Rashford changed the momentum. Professionally the English striker was trying to guide the ball but he mistakingly stepped on the foot and ankle area of Elias Jelert. I think referee Donatas Rumšas would have given a lenient punishment maybe a yellow card because a close look at the encounter shows that Rashford had no intention of fouling the player. Copenhagen took advantage of the one-man disadvantage to launch several attacks on the vulnerable United defence. Rasmus Hojlund's two goals were erased a few minutes after the red card and Manchester United began to struggle.

The second half was better for the Red Devils because they defended very well and got a goal that would have been defended time the end of the match. But the lapses in the defence began to manifest toward the end of the match. We saw that the defenders failed to coordinate themselves and it led to two goals almost when the match was coming to an end. Instead of ensuring that every Copenhagen striker on the box was marked, United defenders were crowded around a few players which gave the Danish side strikers freedom to get those last-minute goals. If a red card can change the fortunes of the match and make United struggle, it means that something is wrong with the team.

Sports commentators and fans always believe that the reason why Mbappe has not reached his full potential is because of his club PSG. But we should also note that he might not be successful somewhere else. Who knows if he can adapt to the style of play of another league? Nevertheless, there is no harm in trial, maybe a new club in Spain or England could bring out the best in him. Clubs like Real Madrid or Manchester City would be a good path to his quest to be the world's best player. Real Madrid looks like a certain location for the Frenchman next season but we shouldn't write off unforeseen occurrences. The speculation that coach Carlo Ancelotti will be leaving next season can also affect Mbappe's transfer, who knows if the sticker might not be comfortable with the new coach.      

Lyon has not won any game in ten matches. Fabio Grosso was appointed after the sack of Laurent Blanc to turn the club to winning ways but his efforts have now been able to change the depreciating performance of the club. Ten games have already been played and it is remaining twenty-four matches. The club still have the chance to at least remain in Ligue 1, if they can improve and get good results in their remaining games.  

Vanguard CEO Tim Buckley said that the asset-management firm will not join the spot bitcoin ETF just like other firms like BlackRock and Fidelity. I see it as the personal decision of the company and that's their business. For now, we are focusing on the outcome of the application of other asset managers that are interested in bitcoin. 

Next year will be the perfect time for the SEC to approve the spot bitcoin ETF since it will coincide with the halving. Although there is no valid information from the SEC but from speculation and predictions, the SEC has little or no reason to deny these applications. I am also one of the spectators who is patiently rubbing my hands waiting for my profits .     

Yeah, gambling while performing your work functions is against the work ethic. It doesn't only lead to loss of manhours but it could reduce productivity. It will lead to distraction or loss of concentration which can lead to a reduction in work performance. Lack of concentration could also lead to costly mistakes or even industrial accidents. But if it is not against the work rules, it can be acceptable to bet doing free time or break. It will not be out of place to place or check a bet during break especially if you are gambling responsibly.

The number one rule in gambling is to gamble with what to have and can afford to lose. Gambling wins are not certain in spite of an accurate analysis or uncommon skills. Gambling is not a business that one can seek loans to establish or expand. If you don't want to be a chronic debtor gamble only with the money you have. Taking loans to gamble is a clear indicator of gambling addiction and such a person should seek professional or medical help.

Let me add that we shouldn't gamble because we are chasing losses. Gambling should also be avoided when one is sick or intoxicated by any substance. When one is busy or occupied with some important activities, gambling should be avoided because it could lead to costly mistakes.

The issue shouldn't be receiving pensions in bitcoin but investing the funds in the sector for a long time. These pension funds can generate huge profits over a long period. Considering receiving bitcoin as pensions will depend solely on the number of people who are aware of the existence of Bitcoin. Many people in my location don't know about bitcoin so the percentage will be very low. However many people who are well informed about bitcoin will prefer to receive their pension in cryptocurrency because of high inflation and the constant decline in the value of our local currency. Our local currency has lost almost 50% of its value in five years, which means that receiving pensions in fiat is a financial waste.

It will have little effect on the national economy but individuals can benefit from this initiative because it could serve as a hedge against inflation and give them some profit over time. The benefit it could have on the economy is that it could attract more funds to the pension sector and a healthy pension sector with create more jobs and increase workers' salaries. Some limitations of this policy will be bitcoin price volatility and the inability of these pensioners to keep their coins safe.

There are three players that have signed a long-term contract with Madrid they include Vinicius Jr, Rodrygo, and Eder Militao. Los Blancos are trying to secure their players from the preying eyes of the high-spending Saudi Arabia league. The departure of Karim Benzema has made Real Marid to device means of keeping their player. Vinicius Jr extended his contract to 2027 and Rodrygo and Militao's contract will expire in 2028, Eduardo Camavinga has penned down a contract that will last till 2029. But his buyout clause is £870million which is less than the £1billion placed on others. This means that any club that is willing to get these talented players will have to pay very high transfer fees.   

Every young player will like to remain in Real Madrid for a very long time. The club has some of the best club administrators and also has a sound financial base. Each player was also offered a lucrative salary increase that is very hard to resist. I also think these players have a good relationship with coach Carlo Ancelotti. It is hard to hear about any conflict in the dressing room because he is a good manager of players. Camavinga has also been a good support to the Real Madrid attack because of his strength and ability to penetrate the opponent's defence.     

Some of these stories can be simply identified as fake because they are not factual, sequential or meaningful. The original poster usually comes up with poorly written blatant lies concocted to earn merits. But I am glad that the community have started to identify that the target is to fish merit and many of these posts only get few or no merit. The number of these make-believe posts has reduced to some extent since these merit fishers are no longer getting merits.

Tagging these accounts might not be proper since there are no standard mechanisms to check the truthfulness or validity of these stories. We all know that it will reduce the number of these stories but it can also lead to wrong judgement. Some of these stories might be true because people can act in some strange manner or cannot express themselves in a readable manner. It will also discourage members from sharing their stories because they will be scared that it might lead to punishment.

For me the best solution should be to choose between ignoring the post, don't give merits, giving your comments or reporting the posts. A separate board is unnecessary because it will be filled with junk.

Ronaldo scored his first goal in his third game with Al Nassr and it was a penalty. He scored his free-kick after nearly seven months and kept scoring only penalties until he got used to the Saudi Arabia league. The weather and style of play of the SPL is different from what Karim Benzema is used to in Europe so he needs time to get used to the League. The high temperature makes playing strength consuming and energy exusting. The former world's best player will improve if he is injury-free, given more playing time and maintain fitness.

We can conclude that Al-Ittihad is not doing badly when we are discussing the club's performance in in AFC Champions League. The club is above Sepahan and Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya with two points in Group C having won three of their four games. But we cannot speak the same in their SPL performance, they are still struggling in the 6th position which is unacceptable for the defending champions. It is not a surprise to see Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya beat the Saudi side because they are the current leaders in the Iraqi Premier League.

Before now it was impossible to avoid advertisment on Facebook and Instagram.This has made it impossible for gamblers to avoid advert even when they have used control the ads options. Now Meta is giving users in the EU, EEA and Switzerland the choice to pay a monthly subscription to use Facebook and Instagram  without any ads. This special account can come for as high as €9.99/month on the web or €12.99/month on iOS and Android. Users can get this account this month and enjoy the package  

Although the subscription fees is high to some low income nations but I think it can held to reduce gambling disorderly behaviour. Some gamers are triggered to gamble uncontrollable because of advertisment so this package will help them gamble responsibly. According to a study carried out by Sheffield and Glasgow universities the more people are exposed to betting advertisment the more likely they are to gamble and the greater the risk of them developing a disorder. This package is also helpful because it will make gamblers avoid adverts from many scam casinos that are using these social media as platforms which will also reduce gambling disorder.

What are your thoughts?

Your thoughts are insightful and I believe in some of them. The slogan Invest what you can afford to lose shouldn't be the main advice for Bitcoin because it has over the years shown that it is a dependable and consistent long-term investment. To me, the right phrase should be "invest what you can live without" or what you can afford to bear" . We have seen some people out of greed or high expectations take loans or sell some valuables because they want to invest in bitcoin. Others go to the extent of investing their entire income without considering basic needs or making emergency provisions.

Indeed, bitcoin is now a major player in the global financial market, but it doesn't erase the fact that it is a new invention that still needs time to evolve into a stronger and widely accepted currency and investment. So we still need to invest with caution. Don't invest an amount that can put you into a financial mess if there are any challenges.

Some Chelsea fans in my area were celebrating and I was just looking at them and smiling. It is correct that they won the game and got the maximum three points but must the club wait until a team is two men down before they win a match? Chelsea's performance yesterday was disappointing even with the negative consequences of injury and two red cards Tottenham was still dangerous in the attack and had some chances to come back to the game. It took Chelsea twenty minutes after the second red card to score a second goal. This means Tottenham would have gotten a lift if they scored within the twenty minutes. From what I saw, Chelsea is still struggling to perform at its best.

Nicolas Jackson has been criticised for his poor performance, he was even confronted by some fans who were dissatisfied with his inability to convert goal-scoring chances. But a hat trick is a motivation that he can do better in the future. I celebrate his goals and hope this will lead to a fruitful career at Chelsea.

Angelos Postecoglou is a world-class coach. I expected him to take a defensive approach after he lost two men because of the red cards but the team kept attacking. The attacking strategy was working perfectly until the pressure became too much which led to the last three goals. They have lost the top spot to Manchester City, but I don't think City fans should celebrate much because, with the quality of the Tottenham squad, City might not stay on top for a long time.
