841  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Mainstream coins or altcoins? on: September 16, 2023, 08:31:06 PM
Perhaps I've always been a lone ranger, which sometimes makes me feel lonely. I'd like to connect with cryptocurrency investors from around the world and share our insights and experiences.

What do you mean by mainstream coins or altcoins? There is nothing like mainstream coins in crypto except if you have another personal name is slang that you call it but I don't think there is anything like that or maybe it's a new thing. We have two type of coin by existence, they are bitcoin and altcoins. Bitcoin was the first crypto currency coins that was created and then, any coins that were later created to date step regarded as altcoins and in altcoins, there are coins and tokens. Tokens are crypto built on another chain while coin are those crypto that has their own blockchain like the way bitcoin has its own blockchain.

Furthermore, my little warning about you connecting with people here is that, if you are not careful on the kind of friend to make, you will only be making friends with scammers that will take everything you have. If you have a specific language that is been spoken on the forum, it's better to connect from that boards than a random person you know nothing.
842  Economy / Economics / Re: Was just watching the big short. Why do the times suddenly feel similar? on: September 16, 2023, 08:14:39 PM
Just watching that movie gave me such chills, my family and I lost our house we lost everything in 2008 when the housing market crashed. Honestly after living through it in the worst way you can see how I would be such an advocate for bitcoin. Many other folks didn't have to go though that, and so they don't quite understand. I couldn't hell but think how strangely similar the feeling back then how it almost feels like the same type of conditions for things to happen. I said it the other day whilst playing golf to my m8 that something big was brewing, I could just feel it. Could we be on the verge of some crazy market crashes like in 2008?

I think you are just one the few that fall in the wrong side of financial investment, there are more people that have seen more than what you have experience in the past and there are more to happen, it might not be now but in the future, anything can happen because even the life you breath isn't guarantee for the next day, so trade everything you are doing carefully. If you ask people that fell for Luna collapse, they will tell you that they have seen the worse, there were multiple reports of some investors that even took their life after the collapse of their investments but here you are still strong and elegant.

I was watching some YouTube videos when Covid19 had so intense effect on the market and everyone were all predicting how everything in that point in time will wlbe worse than what we have seen in 2008 but all of them failed and you know why that happened? When covid19 crash the market, nobody see it coming and when the market was bouncing back, no market focaster was able to tell fully because they were all afraid. I believe your assertions are not different from those ones. If the market is going to crash, not even you will be able to tell.

844  Economy / Economics / Re: If the global economy collapses what's the first thing you do? on: September 15, 2023, 05:28:57 PM
Honestly if you have BTC congrats !!! We are heading  into a major economic shift and I feel like when the tides are turning like this there should be a conscious effort to land on the right side of that shift!!! Am I right? What should bitcoiners be doing right now to prepare for a potential global economic hardship other than the obvious which is to hodl and accumulate as much as you can...

Don't act like bitcoin is immune as well. The last time Covid happen, was bitcoin going up or it was going lower. It depreciated more than some even stock, many coins did -99% because of its influence on them. If today another global collapse should happen, bitcoin will be affected but may be not as it used to in the past but it will crash. The same people that has investment into stock are the people that still has money here as well and they will sell if there is a global economy collapse.

Aside covid19 global pandemic that I experienced, I haven't had any in my life but I believe that when problem arises globally, the first thing everyone look out for is food, they stock food during such times, then follow by medicine, that's the only thing that matter during global crisis, all investment will be nothing, many will even sell to cater for the family, so expect people to sell their bitcoin if we are been real to each other.
845  Economy / Economics / Re: Stable coin or having USD in bank on: September 15, 2023, 04:31:54 PM
In my opinion it's all the same because stablecoins and USD have the same nature and secondly they are centralized and we also don't have full control over our assets remember not your keys not your coins if you want to have full control over our coins maybe you have to store bitcoins in cold Our own wallet is more cross-border and easy to carry anywhere and just remember our own phrases remember there is no responsibility if our cassette is lost in the world of crypto currency

When you convert an asset to stablecoin, you choose a parental company that has an asset value equivalent to 1:1 ratio of USD. If you chose USDT, it means you converted your asset to a USD but can only be convertible with tether company in physical form or you can convert to fiat with anothrt person that want the USDT. In addition, converting your asset to any stablecoin, it means that any day it depeg, your equivalent will depeg too but when if you live it in USD, it will stay that way except if US Dollar lose power when there is inflation.

How, it's not all company that suppurt USD, only few like Bittrex exchange allow you do that but to me, it's riskier because you can't tell if the exchange has a fiat to back up the asset you have on the exchange. It's good to withdraw your coins from exchange because as long as you don't have the private keys, then they are not your coins.
846  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Major League Soccer (MLS) 2021 on: September 15, 2023, 01:05:28 PM
Messi said he was really happy after the leave PSG, and also the past week NEymar said something like that, he said "for both (he and Messi) staing in Paris was a nightmare".

And seems like that its true you see how happy and how good is playing MEssi on the MLS,i know MLS is a low league compared to Ligue 1 but still a better mood for Messi.
We know that PSG fans are quite strange because their attitude has changed and is no longer the same when Messi first arrived at the club, and he felt so hated at the end of the season he was there that he chose not to renew his contract, and in fact PSG fans also showed their hatred for one of them their new player is Lucas Hernández just because he was born in a city whose club is a competitor of PSG, and this is the strangest attitude from fans I have ever read.

They should be ashamed of their behavior, I want to see what PSG will accomplish now that they don't have Messi and Neymar under their umbrella, they broke Messi and made him feel like an outcast but thank his stars, he is now where he is appreciated. You know despite Beckham been a successful footballer and a good reputation in football, he doesn't fail to give credit to Messi at a given opportunity. That's how we all succeeded, rise by lifting others. Inter Miami fans are even more loyal because ever since Messi came to that club, their ticket has appreciated by 4-5x and I'm surprised that ticket are been sold fast before we know, this is the loyalty PSG guys lack in France.

Quote
Inter Miami was able to win again in the MLS match against Sporting KC, they are targeting to finish in the top 9 so they can qualify for the off-limits, yeah MLS has a different competition system from other leagues to determine the season champion. It is still possible for Inter Miami to achieve this if they can continue with this good trend, but this is also helped by poor results from the teams above them who are really struggling for it.

Inter Miami is been feared even as Messi is not around, Sporting KC were afraid because of Messi winning mentality. If Campana and Busquets could have such kind of performance when Messi wasn't around, now imagine what they would have done to Sporting KC. Inter Miami might not win MLS this season because of the poor beginning but trust, they have achieved more tey could imagine. Next season is going to be a new blowout against any team that comes their ways.

Chelsea has so much raw talent and needs a coach/manager to mould it to the perfect talent otherwise it's make or break for these guys.
Chelsea are doing a bad business,they are selling their players that have already flopped to teams.They knew that Karl Harvetz and Mason Mount are no longer useful,but they sold them to Arsenal and Manchester United respectively.They sold those players for very big money when they know the players cannot produce half of the amount they sold them for.
[/quote]

They sold Karl Havertz and Mason Mount, what happened after that? Chelsea hasn't impress me since they did all those sold out players. Mount wasn't good enough in there eyes but he is already making good contributions to Manchester United even as they flop in their last match with Arsenal but still better in ball possessiveness. Havertz is also doing well in Arsenal with a strong midfield compression, you see now that Chelsea problem wasn't about the old players but understanding their games because there is nothing Chelsea has not change this season, only Todd Boehly is the only one left and if they continue in this path, very soon he will change Chelsea and go face another business.  Grin

Quote
The only manager I have loved since Tuchel left is this resent manager, Pochetino,he believes in building players to the highest level,that is why he has brought some unknown names to the club this season,and if you look at how they are playing,you will definitely love it,despite the fact that they've not won much games this season,they are playing good football,and the injury to Nkunku has been the reason why they find it difficult to get goals in games.

Tuchel is the only manager that has tolerance to accept whatever Chelsea brings home but sadly the political goons surrounded by Todd Boehly didn't make him see things clearly but now, he doesn't need any body to tell him or judge Chelsea performance, it's all writen in their faces that the club is lagging behind, they better act fast before things shattered, because I don't think even good players will be motivated to come and play for them again.
848  Other / Off-topic / Re: Keeping your gambling habit a secret. on: September 15, 2023, 11:39:25 AM
Although not all people get mature at the same time, the government just decides on the age of a person depending on research where the person can have a full grasp of what is offered in front of him,  Those who are considered immature 17 years old and below may have a problem of understanding several changes that appear in his actions and decisions. So in a country where gambling is legal, I do not think that there is a need to hide their gambling activity.  But of course, in  a place where people are biased towards gambling, it is best to keep the gambling habit a secret since some countries might implement heavy penalties when caught or exposed to gambling.

Maybe because some part of the world where people come, they are been sensitive of what they say and what they do due to the influence and that's why they are been careful of how they to expose their gambling is to other people but from my place where gambling is seeing as a secondary husle and make money, nobody give a damn about what you think of gambling, you don't need to accept them because they gamble because that's probably what some of them do to make a living, that's what some dude us bought their first car and even build their first house and they are still making from it, that's what they do for a living and they are happy doing it legally.

I don't really think there is a problem about that, the government legalized it and it's allow, we have there ads everywhere on posters and in televisions, I'm not sure if really there is any part of entertainment industry in this country that gambling adds have not touch. They have influence betting everywhere and they are making cool money from people whole the government generate more revenue for their pockets.

The circulating rumor suggests that Chelsea is keen on acquiring Oshimen.
Is acquiring Oshimen the right move? Are there other aspects beyond the attacking line that are influencing Chelsea's current performance?
If Chelsea really can sign Oshimen, it should be a great solution. Chelsea has no strong striker, they got difficulty in scoring goals. Osimhen is a machine goal of Napoli, he already proved that he is one of the most productive striker in the world.

However, I still doubt that Osimhen really wants to join Chelsea. There is no something interesting in Chelsea, it is not a strong team anymore. Chelsea squad looks difficult to win any title, they only struggle to return to the top 5 of EPL standings. I'm sure it is not enough for a top striker like Osimhen, he must prefer to join a club that has a high chance to win prestigious titles.

Osimhen can really change the game of Chelsea but sadly, they can't have him now maybe after another 2 years in Napoli. He has yet to make any public announcement on his new contract but it won't be less than 2 years which we know that it's a long time that lots of things will have change by then. Chelsea will not grow past like this, buying any players at this point to me is financial abuse, ttey don't need any players at this moment, what they need is making sure that all the players in the squad are blend together, the is managerian problems and he need to do his work asap, change style and improve on how to make sure that players relationship in ball possessiveness is high.

There are teams outside and inside Premier League that didn't spend much or even half of what Chelsea has spent till date in the transfer market and they are Okay, playing well even when the lose, their win is more. This is what Chelsea need and not any signee to impress their fans that they are ready to do something, later they will go and concedes goals. They better reshape their games if they want to stay relevant and make it to Champions League next season.
850  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How will you feel if it happens to you just like this? on: September 14, 2023, 06:33:33 PM
When I gamble, I don't take it seriously because my gambling is really just a hobby. If I win, it's fine; there's no problem if I always lose. Because I do it just for fun and sometimes just to relieve stress.

That's how I treat gambling here in the crypto gaming business. So I know for myself that I will not lead to addiction. This is something that sometimes I don't understand with other gamblers: why they let their passion for gambling lead to addiction when they can control themselves if they really want to.

Well, that's the hard truth many failed to realized. I can't bet more than I can afford to lose and if I layer loss, I don't count it as anything, will just take it as normal daily thing and move on to the next net if available. If you gamble this way, you don't have to deal with addiction as they so say, you will hardly run into debt because you don't play amount that is bigger to put you into financial problems, you will hardly go to the length of borrowing money or default loans which is great strategy. It may be painful if you lose matches or games you have high hopes on but when you sit down for a minute and think, it's worth thinking about.

I think it's easy to say that if you are holding crypto, it's so easy to consume the pains of losses, the only difference is that gambling take away everything while crypto still have something you can use to recover if you hold strong but even with gambling, right strategy and skill will mount your winnings consistently and get back from those loses you had earlier.
851  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: September 14, 2023, 05:54:04 PM
Although Arsenal are in good form, they will not forget last season's 1-0 defeat against Everton. And Arsenal have lost their last two away matches against Everton. But Arsenal won the home match. The next match is Arsenal's away match. Arsenal are not going to win even though they are strong. Considering the statistics, Everton team will be ahead. However, I would still say Arsenal will make no mistake in this match. They must have learned from their previous mistakes. If Arsenal want to go to the top of the table then Arsenal must get full points in this match. If not, Arsenal may not even be in the top 5/6 of the points table.
If we look at the history of meetings between Arsenal and Everton then of course we can see something unique that happened to these two clubs. Namely, Arsenal always lose when they play at home to Everton. And likewise, Everton always loses when they play against Arsenal. And this has been the case for several seasons. But this time I hope things will be different. Because seeing Everton's unpredictable performance at the start of this season and Arsenal's more expected performance is a fact at the start of this season. Eh, but wait, Everton also played quite badly last season. But at that time Everton had just got a new coach, namely Sean Dyche and at that time Sean Dyche managed to make Everton win as hosts against Arsenal. Initially I was convinced of Arsenal's superiority. But if I remember the results of the matches between these two teams in several seasons, it makes me a little confused about which club to stand for in this match.

It's understandable that when a club has a home match, they make sure they win it no matter what so that they don't get shame by the fan base and their supporters. The reason why Arsenal always win their matches when they met with Everton in Emirates stadium and why Everton always win too in Goodison Park. But have you look at what Everton has been playing for a while? They lost to many clubs Arsenal has beaten and even drew their last match with Sheff United, I don't think Everton are in their right mentality to win Arsenal even if the match is going to take place in Goodison Park, it's 100% win for Arsenal.

The Premier League is back and most of the teams are back from the international break, the ones that have double or triple league to battle will start this week and next but I don't think Everton has any other league to really compete or fight, just Premier League. It's shouldn't be that hard for them to win atleast first match in the Premier league to find a good place in the table, relegation early is how most them turn to the most less performing team till the end of the season.
852  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Betting Features on any Banking or Financial apps should be Removed on: September 14, 2023, 04:36:59 PM
[....]
Now talking about this case that the op posted, there is nothing wrong with gambling, in the same way that cars that can kill people when they drive badly, there is nothing wrong with it, the problem lies with people who have no sense, if The country's laws allow casinos to pay for advertising anywhere, including in banks, so there is nothing wrong with the bank's app having options to finance a gambling account, it is up to each person to have judgment, to know how to manage their own money, be aware that gambling is not something to make a profit, but rather is a form of fun.
I agree with this.

It doesn't really make much of a difference in a person's gambling activity if he could access betting directly from a banking app. A gambling app is most likely downloaded separately on his phone anyway. My only concern here is the security involved in connecting your funds to third party apps like e-gaming. Their security guys are probably top tier but still.

I don't understand why people see gambling so badly, I don't know for others though but I haven't seen a person in person that gambling has rubbish or destroyed life as they put. I have seen people take stupid risk though like using their school fees thinking they could double it and for that, I understood their frustration if been a student and looking for alternatives to make money for feeding or getting some swag up clothes but then, even if they lost their games, they do find a way to pay that money before they close the portal and after that, they are fine with their studies, gambling isn't really the way they hype the downside of it, it can be addicted but sometimes, we need to calm down with the addiction discussions.

Can we even deny that Bank Apps are not useful for making deposit for Casinos that accept fiat? It's a choice, if you like the feature use it and if u don't, terminate it and if you must quit the bank, register another bank that doesn't have such features, it's as simple as that. I love the Banks features because they don't support only betting, they also allow you pay TV cables like Netflix, electricity bill, water bills and others which is cool for me instead of doing it in the web with debit card.

I don't think Newcastle can be favourites. Maybe they can get out of the group, but they will definitely have difficulties from here on. It's their first season in the Champions League and they have no experience at all. And they will have to try hard to play in the domestic league.
There's no favourite club to win this group. Almost all of those teams are powerful enough to win the group. Although Newcastle's performance was disappointing, there is always the possibility that they could follow in the footsteps of Chelsea and turn things around.
Struggled at the domestic league, but it was able showing great performance in UCL. PSG was not so strong at this moment. PSG may face difficulty in beating its competitor.
This is not newcastle's first season in UCL. Around a decade ago was the last time Newcastle participated in the UCL, which feels like a distant memory. Everything changes now.
Newcastle has a good team that needs to get more chemistry. Im aware if newcastle struggle in english premier league but moyes needs to put all of his focus into the UCL now.

If there is favorite in winning the trophies, many of our clubs favorite will now have one of the most trophies, even while they are still knockout, we still shift the support to another club and they still get eliminated. Who would have thought Napoli and Inter will really move this fast last season. Inter was even better to get to the final and battle with Manchester City till their last pressure dropped and conceded a goal that made them loss in the final else I'm confidence that those guys will frustrate Manchester City to the penalty. Newcastle or their group is not different right now, anyone can disqualify or make it out of the group stage.

Wasn't Barcelona the top of Laliga last season but they got kick out of the Champions League, they went to Europa to play kcockout and was again kicked out from there and that humiliation is something Xavi will not like to see again. So expect the expected and any team that are in the group need to do their best, not a do or die league.

I want to ask those of you who have a hard addiction experience in gambling and then you can treat it yourself, and today still playing gambling but with the principle of good management and financial management in gambling.
I want to know how you break away from the addiction, you can mention the actions taken or what kind of steps? And how long do you need time to break away from the addiction that has been experienced?

"I want to find out because I think your experience in the case as I mentioned will be useful for readers, especially for me personally"

There are two types of addicted gamblers in my opinion, those that made some mistakes and turned to heavy gamblers but unrealizing their mistakes, they take correction and adjust the way they play and the other are gamblers that turned to be an addicted gambler but failed to take correction about the habit of gambling. If you are a serious gambler and a very concerned one for that, you don't need any one to share their experience or how they got out because the situation might be different, yours could be as a result of over playing and mine could be as a result of making wrong choice of bets.

So, play your thing and keep up with what you do best, don't over depends on gambling, when you lost, take a break and if it's minor, change strategy and your skill, luck will locate you the next time you bet.
856  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can money be saved in gambling sites? on: September 13, 2023, 06:29:58 PM

this thread reminds of me of what happened to Stake recently where they just got hacked. not sure if the coins of the users were also compromised but hopefully not after all Stake is very rich and can refund all.

but what happens if it weren't stake.com? if it was just a casino that isn't very well known and only a few thousand in their budget for refunds then you lost your coins as if you are scammed.

If you are a company like stake and was compromised of such amount of money, will you say that the customers money was compromised? Of course no. They will not announce any damage control so as not to make people panic, they will make it look like as if nothing happened and find a means to cover up. This kind of loss can take years of revenue before they recover and if they successfully caught the culprits, they will recover fast but right now, the guys have not spend the money from the wallet and nothing has been found so far from the lead.

To gamble, you have to keep your money on the exchange but I'm not sure if those money on users balance are reall, they could be dummy text t represent the equivalent amount they have under the betting platforms and when it's time to withdraw, they pay the owner to their destination address. But if that's their real money on the platform, many betting platforms that do that will by now learn lesson from stake and find alternative that is better.

Arsenal got a good spot I must concur and PSV has always been a worthy competition in getting  the team the three points they need. For the preliminary stages, I ain't scared until it gets to when the pressure of premier league and other league matches starts bumping weekend in, weekend out.
What the gunners need is a team that doesn't lack stamina or whose muscles bow to cramps once the game gets above 90minutes.

PSV can be a difficult team and I really wonder how competitive they can be against Arsenal. This year, Arsenal is starting to work with Arteta to avoid making the mistakes they made last year. They managed to become a young and offensive team. I don't think PSV can withstand them.

PSV are good and Arsenal having their first ecounter against them is good. Do you know? PSV might have a good dominance in matches against Arsenal but this time, If Arteta see things differently and was able to win them in the first round 1 group matches, the rest of the matches for Arsenal is going to be a bonus for Arsenal because the only team I think Arsenal should be mindful is PSV and having win them in the first round will be advantage for them, not only just that but the journey to beat other teams after that will be easy to accomplish.

If Arsenal could push Manchester United to concede 3 goals in EPL which is consider as one of the toughest league in the world, who is PSV that they can't pieces. Anything can happen but this is what the current Arsenal form can do because we are gunners and about history, they are not different from Arsenal in the Champions League; the last time they won, many of their players are not yet born.
858  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: September 13, 2023, 02:11:46 PM
Everton showed a lot of improvement in their last game against Sheffield United. They got the first goal and went down to two goals to one. But they fought hard to get the equalizer and secured the deserved one point. Although they have lost three last games before the draw, they can still surprise Arsenal. The Gunners is a good side but they have to be careful because, in the game of football, anything can happen.

There still haven't been many good changes for Everton this season through four games. Getting a draw in their last match against Sheffield United, Everton have still not shown any signs that they can pose a serious challenge when they face top teams like Arsenal this week.
In football, anything can happen, but to win against Arsenal, it will be difficult for them. The maximum result for them against Arsenal is probably a draw. More than that, I don't dare to assume because Arsenal this season is very ambitious to correct the mistakes that occurred last season in winning the title at the end of the season.

Out of 38 matches that Everton had in Premier League last season, they only manage to win 2 and draw 2 and that was how they luckily escape the relegation, should that mean they used 8 points velocity to overcome relegation, if not they will probably be out of Premier League this season and seeing them starting on a wrong foot the beginning of the season didn't surprise me either; Only time will tell if they will remain after the season or not because been here has not been fruitful for Everton.

Farhad Moshiri has seen Everton as unsuccessful business, no wonder they have been working hard to sell the club to 777 partners, if the deal go right, Everton is going to see a lot changes but if Jack Harrison the new manager is able to changes the performance of the team, who knows if he is going to make a change of plans since he just assumed office less than a month and seeing that he has a track record in Leed City, perhaps that will reflect here.
859  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Big capital, small risk or small capital big risk - which is best approach? on: September 13, 2023, 01:17:29 PM
Different people with different approach to gambling. Some prefer committing huge capital to high probability small odds while others prefer using small capital to target big wins. There are many reasons for each of these approaches.

While those that put huge capital win more often, their losses are usually painful. On the other hand, those that commit small capital to make huge wins rare win but when they do, they win big; their losses too are less painful. There are other advantages and disadvantages for both approaches but for the sake of this discussion, let's know which approach you think is better and why?

Gambling and luck happens once in a while and I can confidently tell you that I have seen a gambler bet $1=#920 to win $2100(#1,932,000, that's good amount in NGN) for playing sporty of 2100. I count the number of matches on his bet slip and I what I saw was astonishing, the guy predicted 21 matches both basketball and football and all went as he predicted. That's to show you how lucky some people are with gambling, so whether big amount or small amount, there are gamblers that are naturally lucky to win.

You need strategy to win any amount whether you stake high or stake low, in as much as gambling is 50/50, if you don't have good strategy on selecting games, you will win nothing. The reason why I'm saying this is that, there are people that wager high capital but lack good strategy and they lost the money before they realized and there are some people that have good strategy and with little amount, they win whatever they predict.

In addition, don't forget to risk what you can afford to lose else you will regret gambling, let your pocket speaks for you.

According to the Finbold article, ‘Rich Dad’ R. Kiyosaki predicts Bitcoin to $1 million if the economy crashes. This is food for thought for those who are foreseeing the economic crash and are unable to find a safe haven for their investments.

Due to the current economic situation and the BRICS, the crash of the dollar seems obvious. Although it will not happen instantly as the US Government will bail out packages in order to maintain the dollar value, however, the question is for how long?

Some people are of the view that if there is an economic crash, then the stock market and the commodities market will crash and so will the bitcoin price will tremble. This may happen but I think the bitcoin will recover quickly and people will invest in the bitcoin. And who knows bitcoin may not fall at all if all this happens in a slow and steady fashion.

Speculations is the best thing to rely on when the next direction of the market is uncertain but I think Kiyosaki is going off point. This is not the first time many have predicted tbe price of bitcoin to hit $1m but till today, we are yet to hit $100k target since launch. I'm not saying it's not possible but when making predictions, there should be corrected factors. Too much dependency of predictions will live you disappointed and with time, your talk will be of no use to the public, only talk when you think it's necessary, not figures that are unrealistic.

Even with Economic harsh, we shouldn't forget what has happened last bull run, you can't expect the next bull run to be smooth if we don't address why the bitcoin has collapsed back to 15k low after making all time high od $58k,  the price will still collapse even if there should be another bull run because of trust issues.
