Bybit jave played their own part, with the warning that nevwr take funds from third-party account's, this warning is to kick against hackers who have stollen other people bank account's and they use is to make payments for their p2p orders, i think exchange users should start taking things serious because scammers will always try by all means to verify the account's that p2p vendors make your payment from.

Best thing to do whenever a p2p vendor use third party account's to make payments to you account is to send the exact amount back to the account that send the money, this way the banks know you have nothing to do with illegal possession of that account 

Exactly what Bybit advised customers to do after receiving a third party payment and also report such vendor but honestly how many customers reports these vendors or even check to make sure the sender account name matches the vendors names. Most customers just received money and went on to release their assets without checking these basics security concerns.

We need to be careful while trading, there are innocent people in prison for receiving money they know nothing about the source.

Lol where will the morale come from? The only reason Manchester United were able to defeat Chelsea last weekend was because Chelsea conceded that red card early in the game if not the best result that would have been was a draw else United would have still lost that game.

Chelsea hasn't won at Old Trafford for 12 years so at least that's something, I don't think Chelsea are any better than Manutd I would say both project looked the same and are both struggling with same defensive problems and inexperienced managers.  Chelsea against Manutd are always 50-50 game

Let not forget Manutd were down to 10 men at some point in the game with more than 30mins and yet Chelsea couldn't get anything from the game.

Chelsea can't be compared to Benfica because of what they have achieved up until now, and Chelsea is considered to be one of the big clubs, and their poor performance can't take that away from them. However, when we are talking about performance, there is nothing wrong with comparing Chelsea to Benfica because Chelsea's performance is really poor.

Don't make it seem as if, because of what Chelsea has achieved in the past, their current poor performance should prevent them from being compared with teams of the same caliber.

I haven't been following up on Benfica form and results since Mourinho took over there I know it's going to take some time for him to fully settle in but one thing is for sure he's going to give everything against Chelsea; the first time meeting them since he got sacked there.

Both teams may not be on the same level at the moment but Chelsea injuries and form should give them that advantage

I don't know, it seems to me that Chelsea have been exhausted lately, i don't understand why.
and yet on paper it should be a very good and strong team, especially by virtue of the victories against decidedly top teams
do you have any idea what's happening to him: Chelsea?

Too many injuries and red cards the back too.

I just read on sky sports that Graham potter has been sacked by Westham United. The hammers has been on serious decline since the start of the season. The management has been patient with potter to see if their will be any improvements, but it seems potter has ran of ideas. The sack of potter has been clamoured by different sports analysts. Did Westham made the right call by sacking Graham potter?
As been expected, good to see West Ham not to wait for long to sack him.

Nuno Espirito Santo isn't really a good player, but at least we know he's unlike Potter who will destroy the team that he manage. He's an ex-Nottingham Forrest coach, he brought Nottingham Forrest to finish at 7th position in the last season.

Hope he can take Westham out of the shambles they're are in now, no surprises there; I knew Potter wasn't any special and he's been getting exposed since he left Brighton. Nuno is great coach not that he's going to perform magic but at least he would bring out the team from the current shambles they're in right..

Funny enough ever since Nuno was sacked Nottingham forest they haven't won any of their game

Unfortunately, when things start to fall apart, it's usually so hard to get them fixed

Lately Liverpool have been fond of making those late winners but just like today, some team might start upsetting them. The defense should be OK so long as the kill of the games as early as first half and avoid the last minute drama including unexpected losses.

I've been saying it that Liverpool getting late winners since the start of the season wasn't going to be sustainable for a long time and it happened today; they have been scrapping results off poor performance and they got a better part of their own medicine today.

Crystal Palace left it late given them no chance to react and that makes Crystal Palace 18 games unbeaten run since last season. Played Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester city in the process.

Why will you use the profit you make from another investment to invest in Bitcoin? Is that advisable to you? Although I don’t know, but for me I can’t; rather than using some part of it to invest, using all the profit, I think that is not going to be helpful at the end. Y

ou may sell the investment and use the money for another thing in a short period of time. Bitcoin investment is not supposed to be done with your profit; rather, maybe the money you are not going to touch in a short period of time, so you can invest in bitcoin for a long period of time,

but using your profit won’t make the investment last. To the extent you will get profit, and everybody knows bitcoin investment is generating profit in a short period of time.

What keep business is the profits; feeding, shop rents and basic needs are being settled with business profits now imaging pushing these profits into another uncertain investment like Bitcoin and you're forced to rely on your business capital for survival how would the business survive.

I don't know what what advice the OP think he was giving but it obviously not a very good one lol

Perhaps the thieves are sending it directly from the real owners account straight to P2P recipient. The only possible way the banks can trace it, is by tracing the money down to the person that receives it. So yeah, many P2P users are falling victims of this.

This is not different from the question I was asking; are the so called dirty not in the bank? Why flag the receiver accounts and not the sender? Dirty and fraudulent deposit usually get flagged

It's either the vendor in question is EFCC or CBN agent tracking and blocking crypto traders accounts or the money was reported as wrong transaction by the sender.

This is a whole long list of CBs, Europe is gonna miss some good center back soon.
Konate has been linked to Real Madrid and I think it's a good move for both parties and will be the perfect replacement for Rudiger.

There must be a reason why Liverpool hasn't offer him an extension yet and it could because of his injury history; he barely stays fit and Real Madrid already have too many injury prone CBs on their hand not sure how this is a good deal for them.

I am not so certain Guehi will make the move to Liverpool again, he might not stay at Crystal Palace any more but won't necessarily move to Liverpool, it could be any other club.

Rudiger should just move to Saudi Arabia League.

Guehi has already made up his mind about his move it would be very unusual if he stays and sign another contract that could see him spend the rest of his peak career at CP.

Yes as the topic said it all and it is very simple to understand. Instead of planning to use your business money to invest in bitcoin, I advise you to use the profit to invest and keep the capital to run di business and even di profit no be all you go use because you get other bills and things to do. Many people business of the advantages of investing in bitcoin would not think of what would happen when they invest their all in bitcoin and starting to beg from others to eat because they what to grow their investment or if they can't wait, they will be touching the investment bitcoin again.
That is wrong investment plan. Always have an alternative to survive when you are investing in bitcoin.

Most of you here just come up with some basic business and financial advice every time on the board I don't know if you people think you're dealing with kids here or those on the board doesn't know that business capital are not for investment purposes.

If someone is already making enough profits from his business is it not a common sense to reinvest the profits into the same business to expand it for more profits? Why risk it on another investment you're not certain of profit in short term.
10  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Bank account suspended as a result of Bybit transaction on: September 26, 2025, 08:36:07 PM
OP have you heard of dirty Naira? This is similar to it.

I would've  posted about the dirty Naira which is probably the reason why the accused account was frozen. Many folks are now selling dirty Naira on Bybit. And these Naira are called dirty because one or more fraudulent activity is connected to the money.

Yeah, what they do is that they buy Bybit account of one Aboki, they go steal the money, then use the account to sell the Naira and take USDT which will be sent later to their main account.

So why do banks allowed so called dirty money to be sent out? Wouldn't it be better if the accounts linked to these dirty money are frozen and investigated ?

I know so well that accounts linked to fraudulent deposit are usually flagged debit-no-bil; this way you can't make transactions on the account unless the source of the deposit is confirmed to be legitimate.

It doesn't make sense for people to continue using an exchange with different complaints from time to time; it is high time people need to do their research to get a reputable exchange where there are not many problems and that is safe for customers to trade without having any complications.

It's normal as they're the most used P2P marketplace now unlike when we have more than 5 other exchanges now we have all the scammers in one place.
11  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: September 26, 2025, 08:18:25 PM
The picture above was the list of CBs to leave from their clubs for free in summer. So here's my prediction for some names above.

Konato from Liverpool to Madrid (Rudiger's replacement)
Guehi from Crystal Palace to Liverpool (Potential Giovanni Leoni's replacement due to the ACL injury)
Rudiger will go to somewhere as RM have no plan to extend his contract(along with Alaba).

That's the only things i know and rest may go to the somwhere.  Cheesy

Real Madrid are already in for Guehi as per many reports as Rudiger replacement, I haven't heard reports of Konate being linked to Real Madrid and I wonder why Liverpool hasn't offer extension yet. Suffered few injuries last year but he'd been crucial part of the team for Liverpool. He deserves an extension IMO unless he has chosen to try a new competition somewhere else.

If Real Madrid gets Konate they may as well leave Guehi for Liverpool not forgetting that Chelsea also needs some new CBs.
12  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Bank account suspended as a result of Bybit transaction on: September 25, 2025, 11:09:14 PM
The is very bad and calls for urgent attention to Bybit Nigeria to address the issue. Since this is affecting only Nigerians, reporting to the dedicated team in charge of Bybit Nigeria will be the best approach for it. I have had issues in the past where I get to complain about my account on an exchange through their community on telegram. If Bybit have such a community, the issue can be raised there to serve as awareness to other members there and their representative in charge can escalate the issue to be resolved right away.

Even if concerns are being raised Bybit cannot know the kind of money we all have in our Naira account and there's no way to check which is tainted and which is not. This kind of scenario happens once in a while it's not a a reoccurring thing.

The victims should visit their banks to find out reasons why their accounts were frozen and try to have them fixed.

For the meantime, it is better one not engage in selling coins from any name even similar to the name on the platform. It is time they introduce buttons that you can easily search on a merchant and block them up straight away to avoid any mistake trading with them even in the future.

Vendo search feature would be unfavorable to some small traders. The current system is better.

There are people out there who do not want to play gambling at all because they think that once they do, they will fall into addiction. Of course, we know it’s not that immediate nor easy but it makes me wonder whether there’s some truth to that. Is it better to avoid addiction in the first place by completely devoiding yourself of doing that activity instead of playing and getting addicted only to try and recover afterwards?

Only idiots with weak mentality think of the negative side of things without trying them first.

I don't think anyone wants to fall into gambling addiction. It's something that will happen over time, so we don't really know when it will come.

There are usually early signs of gambling addiction; chasing loses, depositing and gambling more than you can afford to lose are early signs of gambling addiction and irresponsibly gambling. It doesn't happen immediately it gives you signs
14  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Bitcoin purchase VS MicroStrategy share purchase on: September 24, 2025, 11:16:40 PM
Buying shares of MicroStrategy

If a person buys shares of MicroStrategy, it is completely in the hands of the company. Many times it is seen that if the price of Bitcoin is high and the company cannot do anything good, then the share price will decrease a lot. You cannot make any decisions on your own, you can only buy and sell, everything else is in the hands of the company.

Buying Bitcoin and holding it for the long term is the best option. So always buy Bitcoin and hold it for the long term.

If the microStrateg are buying Bitcoin and are making too many waves in the market ofcose you'd expect their stock to also do well In numbers. The stocks is what helps them to acquire the Bitcoin they're currently holding so as the price of Bitcoin increases, the company finances increases also.

It's called diversification; you don't have to put all your eggs in one basket, as you're investing in Bitcoin also invest in good stocks. Some company pays you dividends for holding some certain amounts of their stocks.

I dont know how this speculation came in but if this speculation is true then I guess Lammens is not as good as they expected him to be which kinda make sense considering that Amorim still played Bayindir on the Derby. Lammens got 3 months to show that he doesnt need to be replaced and I personally think that he will be able to keep his position

Unlike the other clubs, Manchester United only has EPL left to play on so Lammens only had that one chance every week

Wasn't Chelsea close to getting him in the summer and only left the deal cause  AC Milan were demanding too much than his worth? What's stopping them from swopping him away when he becomes a free agent.

For Lammens he hasn't even featured in any game yet we know Amorim can be very patient with his new signings to ease pressure on them. Sesko started for the first last weekend, Lammens chance will come probably when all the hype and hopes are down.

Ekitike was very much unprofessional at that one. The goal wasn't even a thrilling one. I mean he scored an empty net as the assist was so perfect. He was carried away and did only reclaim when Frimpong confronted him but it was too late then.

That celebration wasn't necessary, it was a mare tap in goal anyone in his position could have put that in the net. Poor self awareness.

Wait!
I have forgotten, does the red card in EFL carry over to EPL? Someone should clarify me, is it EFL or FA cup?

Yes it's the same football association so yes it carries to the PL matches, he will miss the weekend game. Sanchez will return back to action this weekend after serving his Red card ban against Lincoln yesterday.

We all know that this season Chelsea have improved a little bit compared to their last season's performances, but I think it’s too early to choose them as the favorite team in the Premier League, or do you forget that this season there are a lot of teams that are well prepared to compete for the league? And that’s why we’re expecting the competition to be very tough this season.

Not sure about Chelsea improvements just yet, I think they just had some early good fixtures cause they've lost points in every big games they've played in this season. Same way they struggled to win against big teams last season.

The defence can't even keep a cleansheet against nobody. Think they still have a lot to do to be up there.

I have heard that Mourinho will make 6 million euros per year at Benfica. It like the half amount of the money he was making at Fenerbahce.  Tongue

He has really got used to getting sacked and getting lots of money in the meantime. I wonder whether it will happen again here this time...

We can’t tell if the Chosen One will face same fate here at Benfica but let’s see how well he will perform and improve Benfica. There seem to be a history between this two so let’s hope that connection could spark something beautiful and positive as he returns to the club.

He will be up against his former side Chelsea in their next Champions league game that would be an interesting game. Since he left he hasn't been up against them ever and this is the first since he left.

Will be interesting to see how Mascara would perform technically to get result against someone like Jose in a CL game.

It finally ended in the favour of Wolverhampton. I saw the first 45 minutes of the game, they were completely happy with the result and they also had fun doing that. The set of players who started th3 first half fir Everton were  complete jokers. I don't even know what's with the hype around Tyler Billing.
Not even the introduction of Jack Grealish and Drewsburry Hall could bring a positve impact into the game. I was also able to see John Arias close up tonight.

Surprised Everton didn't go full strength in this game knowing fully well they were up  against a PL side and not some league one clubs. What was the essence of preserving players for league games when this is the only trophy they could dream of winning?

Tyler Billing is a good talent with higher ceiling, still very young and still getting used to the team, the whole team were completely bad can't pinpoint this on him.
20  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: September 22, 2025, 10:35:17 PM
Jose Mourinho has lost his Special One title because he has been sacked several times due to poor performance. My problem with him is his inability to take responsibility for his failures. He would either blame the players, match officials or even club management. Mourinho's second spell with Chelsea ended in sack even after he led the club to their fourth Premier League title. Let's see if he would do the same thing in Benfica.

He has already started to create controversies in Portugal when he said his new club is one of the biggest clubs in the world. This comment angered the fans of his former FC Porto.    

Getting sacked is part of their career and not everyone gets sacked for poor performance, sometimes it's more of an internal crisis between the manager and the club. Fenebache finished second in the league last season, had an amazing title run so he wasn't sacked based on poor performance.

He will always be the special one, he has proven himself over in different leagues so there's literally nothing to prove anymore.
