This are things that people usually used to paint bitcoin black and I won't be surprised if the government speak about this whereas though millions of naira, if not up to billion, has been used only this year to pay kidnappers. - bitcoin nor be for getting rich quick
People fail to realise this quickly especially the first on the list even those who don't use/get it illegally simply because of the misconception of thinking that once they have bitcoin the price will just surge and they becomes rich whereas this is not usually the case you have to HODL to enjoy an actual appreciation of bitcoin - nor be about how many bitcoin you get but how you take get am. If you get am through legit means you go appreciate am and get peace of mind but if you get am through illegal means you go dey fear make dem police nor catch you one day and na to squander am because you feel say you go always fit get am through that illegal means.
Getting bitcoin illegally literally reduced the freedom of being able to speak up about it, especially the part on how you accumulated such about because of fear . Though in our country they're hardly scared of showing off, claiming the name btc boys which gave off the idea before to many Nigerians that bitcoin is used only by scammers though these set of scammers are still scared of EFCC but are not scared to fluent it in public. |

Would you try?
What are the benefits? ... and the setbacks.
Our Memory on thus can't be trusted, us either we forget some part or the arrangements in the long run. I don't see anything benefit of it, writing offline private key/seed phrase is much better, if you think it's not safe in your place, you can add a passphrase which will make it possible that even if someone get your recovery phrase, they still can't access your coins except they also get your passphrase. Though you can also try wallet encryption. |

Your friend is addicted to gambling in such a way that he cannot get himself out of gambling addiction i.e. he can be said to be mentally disordered and he has placed gambling above all his activities. In this situation, no matter how much honest advice you give him, your advice will not be accepted by him and he will not act on your advice. But your friend is in a mistake because he has sold everything to recover his past losses and has gone gambling, in this case recovery of past losses is never possible no matter how much he gambles. In this case, your friend should refrain from all forms of gambling addiction and spend quality time with his family. Mental disorders are one of the risks that can occur if they are addicted to gambling, especially if they themselves cannot stop even though they have experienced many losses. with the many defeats they experience, it will make them experience pressure that can affect their own mental health which ends in mental disorders, apart from that, they become addicted, this is because their thinking has been influenced by gambling, so mental disorders are a definite impact. It happens, some are even still aware of the pressure they are experiencing but because they are unable to bear the pressure they end their lives, it's scary. Indeed, even those who are addicted will not easily be able to accept advice from other people, even from their own family members. If they are addicted to thinking, they will not think about other things, it is unlikely that they will be able to think about other things around them. because if they are addicted to gambling, they will only focus on what they want and gambling is what they want, so they will continue to gamble even though they have experienced many losses and losses, even with bad consequences. The fact is his friend doesn't want to let go the first money he lost and so he continues to gamble to get everything back whereas he is now blinded to know he has lost so much now, this is among the common reasons that causes gambling addiction, another is almost similar whereas someone won an huge reward and will continue to stake even if his total loses is now way bigger than the huge win but will be blinded. This is just part of the psychology of most gamblers, the false hope of getting an huge win. My advice is for him to tell his friend to move on and forget about the lost or else things will more likely become worst. |

Group F teams - Turkey
- Georgia
- Portugal
- Czech Republic
Looking at the current condition of the club and taking into account the strengths and players, Portugal's potential is very large now when compared to other teams. Portugal is currently quite complex from players on every line because looking at some of the names brought for the euro this time the Portuguese players are really above average. Defensively they have some great players who have been in high European competition like Dallot, Cancelo, Pepe or Mendes, in midfield they have some creative players like Vitinha, Bruno and of course Bernardo. For the attack they have Felix, Jota and Cristiano not to mention their young players who are currently in prime condition Leao who indeed sees from the depth of the current squad Portugal is really very good and terrible to see it's just that teamwork is clearly important and Portugal always has problems that make the players sometimes underestimated. For the group stage I think Portugal will be very comfortable to qualify for the next phase but for other clubs there are also several Actually Portugal has little to worry here except from Czech Republic who had a really decent stat in their qualifying and throughout last year, aside them Portugal has little to worry after all Portugal are among the title favourites. They already have the team to capable to match every other team they plays against and this time I think they are having a stronger winning mentality from the fact that Ronaldo came to this competition with a good record and not like what we experienced in the last nations tournament. |

Do you think having a casino or any gambling center close to an institution of learning, will influence the students somehow or should I say be a positive or negative reinforcement on them, in anyway?
Thoughts?
Actually in our current age, I see most youth/students betting online while though having these center's will even influences more others to gamble since they can physically meet like minded peers. Though this will be a mixed perception since some will be influence more to gambling or even becoming addicted and others will come to learn about the risks and ways to healthy gambling though the majority will still be tending to the negative aspects since student are usually not workers depending on their guidance for taking care of their needs and then may see gambling of making money for themselves by which they'll begin to gamble with their funds for upkeep or may even be tempted to use their school fee, house rent or other funds required for schooling. |

Mbappe will have a good time playing in Madrid, just a few months from now he will be receiving his first ever trophy with the club, the UEFA Super Cup final against Atalanta, a welcoming trophy for the newest striker in Madrid. Though it's more likely Real Madrid will win the super cuo against Atlanta but i still see it somehow in writing Atalanta off totally from winning that match. During Mbappe stay in Madrid, he would be sure of winning six good trophies if not more. Madrid method of selecting players is what is keeping them with a good record till now, they don't sign many but the few are just the perfect option to fit the box.
The main reason is because we van say they have the best management, that is Perez, who tries to get a good coaches who knows how to improve players and give them the players they want and who may likely still fit the team even if the coach leaves in the long run. |

You're absolutely right, it's only a matter of time before Barcelona competes with Real Madrid. However, the Barcelona club is now very struggling as they have been going through financial problems for a long time. A good and skilled coach needs a lot of money. According to the current situation of Barcelona, I think it is very important for Barcelona to have a maximum effort for an experienced coach. So that Barcelona can return to form next season and maintain their reputation among football lovers
I think barcelona team will make all kinds of preparations to come back to form next season. In a team all the responsibilities from playing the players to the coach are held by the coach. And if the coach of the team is not good then it will be really foolish to expect the team to perform well. Barcelona fans are waiting to see how strong the team can come back next season. Barcelona team is a good enough team and there is not a single person who loves football who doesn't know Barcelona. Xavi is a very potential player for Barcelona team. He plays very well in Barcelona team and I support Barcelona a lot based on his performance. Real Madrid is one of the best teams in the La Liga series. And they are often seen in the top position in the La Liga series. Similarly, this time too they are far ahead of other teams in terms of points. And the difference in points between Barcelona and Real Madrid, Barcelona may not get the chance to make up this year. So next year Barcelona can expect something better than this year I believe that the new coach of Barcelona will do well and improve Barcelona's performance next season. They will be very competitive next season against Barcelona and Real Madrid because I am confident that Barcelona will not make any mistakes next season and will do everything possible to win the title. Let's see how Barcelona does in the La Liga competition. I believe Girona is on their mind because a little club like Girona has defeated Barcelona both at home and away. Real Madrid were in good shape last season, and they will continue to be in good shape next season because the new addition that Madrid made will make them stronger next season, and it will be very difficult to overcome Real Madrid because they are set. Except Barcelona can signed more players I don't really think they have any chance of competing with Real Madrid next season because last season they pretty did well except from their players becoming tired because they were over stressed playing all games and some got injured, severely or just for some games. De Jong is the recent player being affected since he can't play in Euro just because of this and he is really disappointed about this. They are even facing challenges getting Felix, who still did well during his loan moved from ATM who want to sell but they're hoping for another loan. The fact is Barcelona fans should be patient and hope things workouts well quickly in order to actually be a competitor again to Real Madrid who is still getting more stars to even strengthen a really good squad already. |

In addition, ineos is preparing a new deal for ten hag to extend his time in manchester united. I'm glad that I discovered that Ten Hag will not leave the team. Ten Hag has stated that he was frustrated by waiting ineos decision about his future. Two trophies in two seasons isn't too terrible for him at Manchester United. Although these trophies are not major trophies. Ineos made the correct option to keep him longer with the club. Yes but this is were the real test come on Ten Hag, finishing in a more reasonable position next season domestically and winning a more major trophies or at least showing dominance in Europa League also. Many people have speculated about him, but Ineos has now confirmed everything. What's next for Ten Hag?
1. Sell players and purchase new ones.
2. Create a future plan for the club.
3. Winning more trophies for Manchester United.
ten hag can do that. He is having more time to build his dream team.
This they have to do but I wonder how many clubs will be interested in some of their players in a reasonable fee outside Saudi clubs though these players were bought quite expensively. I also hope he doesn't have issues with other players this season. |

But with the current situation, if Ten Hag is retained, the team will still not be able to improve. The club should replace Ten Hag with Mauricio Pochettino, who left Chelsea last month. I believe the new owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe will have to make a change. He doesn't want to see the money he invested in the club gradually decline.
MU leaders should have fired Ten Hag right after the FA Cup final. However, the emotional victory over Man City brought a new wave of support for coach Ten Hag from the fan community. Fans continue to put their trust in Erik ten Hag. This fact is making it difficult for Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who decides the future of Ten Hag.
Has the Man United board done a sensible thing? I think it makes sense. They need to support this guy with all the resources, and Man United will be great again. He deserves at least one year after the FA Cup final. Winning 2 trophies in 2 years while dealing with so much drama and many setbacks isn't bad. He loves the club, and as expected Man United board has shown their support for him, so I'm sure he'll do well with proper backing and more confidence. I support the stance that Ten Hag was given another chance because it has always been obvious The Manchester United owners has been the core problem but at Lear now they don't have much as Jim is now among the owners, who will think will make things better. Now we're going to see the kind of support Ten Hag get from him and how he is able to utilise these resources to produce an efficient result more than before to show there's a chance of him to bring United back to their days if glory |

My attention is on Official. Official applications do not use Official in their application names.
We can see it on Youtube, Tiktok and some channels but for companies, they will not use that word, official in their brand names as same as their application names.
But not everyone is actually aware of this neither will many be able to notice that the spellings were actually different especially when such person is having eye defects or not being cautious of the extensions they installed and from the fact that the malicious extension, work well as the actual one. What is the 164 number?
I guess it is for total download count of Dracula Official application, it is very low and is another cautious thing.
This is not the official Dracula extensions, it's spelt as darcula which is the malicious extension, the 164 is actually the total download but not many may consider this since they may think it might just be the right one through misconception of the spellings and with time since it's working well like tge actual extension, they will give it positive ratings and with time more users will install it except someone actually checked the code and speak out others will be ignorant of it. |

Since last year till now there have been malicious exploit on the VsCode, Another recent experiment by researchers has proven: - 1,283 with known malicious code (229 million installs).
- 8,161 communicating with hardcoded IP addresses.
- 1,452 running unknown executables.
- 2,304 that are using another publisher's Github repo, indicating they are a copycat.
Among these: Reverse shell found in a code beautifying extension (CWL Beautifer)  This was discovered after a group of researchers explored the security of the Visual Studio Code marketplace and managed to "infect" over 100 organizations by trojanizing a copy of the popular 'Dracula Official theme to include risky code. The fake extension used by the researchers was named 'Darcula,' and the researchers even registered a matching domain at 'darculatheme.com.' This domain was used to become a verified publisher on the VSCode Marketplace, adding credibility to the fake extension  Their extension uses same code from the actual Dracula theme but also includes an added script that collects system information, including the hostname, number of installed extensions, device's domain name, and the operating system platform, and sends it to a remote server via an HTTPS POST request.  The researchers note that the malicious code does not get flagged by endpoint detection and response (EDR) tools, as VSCode is treated with leniency due to its nature as a development and testing system.
The extension quickly gained traction, getting mistakenly installed by multiple high-value targets, including a publicly listed company with a $483 billion market cap, major security companies, and a national justice court network.
The researchers have opted not to disclose the names of the impacted companies.
Since the experiment did not have malicious intent, the analysts only collected identifying information and included a disclosure in the extension's Read Me, license, and the code. There are many developers here and who also uses Virtual studio and I'm also among this category, we need to be cautious of the extensions we download especially if it's from the official source, also considering how long these sources has been around and what they're all about.

And I disagree, a parent could do everything right, like setting parental controls on the electronic devices of their children, spend time with them, and warn them about the dangers of specific behaviors, and if the kid still engage on those behaviors then there is nothing the parents can do, this is very similar to the experiences many of the parents of addicted teenagers go through, in which their parenting is questioned and a great deal of them did everything to prevent that situation to happen and it still happened anyway.
Fact. There is a saying; "A child that will misbehave will still misbehave", no doubt but this is to some extent as many with the right parental training follow the path set for them. This is also applicable to many of us, at one point in our lives we deliberately violated some rules out of curiosity to find out some stuffs that our parents did not want us to know. So I will say many of them act out of curiosity and end up not coming back, in essence we all need to try our best because it getting out of hand especially social media posing more increasing on every body with enticing incentives which ain't true. Exactly, it is as if people forget what kind of behavior they had when they were young, at such time your brain is still developing, so even if you know something is wrong and it could affect you negatively, you may still do it because you lack self-control or simply because you want to go against the rules to show your independence, so many teenagers that had everything going on with their lives, end up throwing it away and then the parents are blamed in an unjustified way. Children will not say that they will not misbehave, it is for their are not to allow them exposed to some certain things right from their early stage, we have the right to influence the desired change we want to see happen in their lives, social media has a lot on impact on the society and the children we gave birth to in the community, all we must ensure to do is in having a deliberate intentions over the influence of what they receives from the society. People including children are mainly influenced by those they associate with and the internet has made it even more expanding especially with social media whereas people and children are influenced by those they follow and the content they watched. In some countries, it will be much easier for underage to be restricted in gambling whereas in some this is not actually the case, that's some might easily get access to a Mastercard or might be knowledgeable to use cryptocurrencies to gamble online while some might not face any issues going to a gambling shop to place bet which is more common in my country. |

Considering from Goal.com, Pep Guardiola announced had closed the door return back to Barcelona one day later after his contract expiring with Manchester City. Its bad ideas for him returning back to Barcelona because financial problem and make Pep Guardiola lack opportunities for signing top players, actually Pep Guardiola is most successful manager with Barcelona by winning all trophies from La Liga, UEFA Champion League, Copa del Rey and success making the history or treble winner for his first appearances.
Since get difficult with financial, Barcelona less interested for Pep Guardiola and seems he can't bring back Barcelona become bigger team in European because every window transfer never sign top player. Pep Guardiola decision close the door return back to Barcelona is right because he want make bad reputation with his manager career always success winning domestic league every season.
A coach like Pep Guardiola really needs a team that is truly financially stable because that way Pep can look for quality players according to the expected criteria. It makes sense that quality players certainly have the right price. Meanwhile, Barcelona currently seems more difficult to meet Pep's expectations in building an ideal squad. I will not blame Pep's decision because a club's financial stability is normal for a coach. Only a few top coach will definitely wants to coach Barcelona except they know they can work with majority of the current squad, I guessed it's obvious now Pep may likely go league like Seria A or League one but I think psg might go for him when he finally leaves City especially from the fact that if Enrique doesn't do well in the Champions League before then. Barcelona can learn from Real Madrid, when their finances are stable they can create the perfect squad filled with high quality players. Even though Pep Guardiola loves Barcelona, in this case he is realistic and doesn't want to risk his reputation for a team that is financially bad.
This is good but I hope they'll be having a good coach to get the right players who will fit well and may not become a flop because this is what they tried to do before their bankruptcy crisis and their sporting director getting deal done extravagantly |

What do you say about Sevilla? Their future really doesn't look good at all honestly.  The last time I saw them having a good finish was the 2021/2022 season. Since then we have seen a huge downfall. First finishing at the 12th position and now even worse, 14th. If they continue like this next time they can find themselves fighting out of the relegation zone. I feel like one of the main factors in this is their changing managers too often. They don't give their manager enough time to have the system work better. I still think they were unfair to Mendilibar for example. Sacking him after winning a Europa League title was just insane! The challenges Sevilla team is experiencing is potential players, but their management don't want to use huge amount of funds to hire some potential players that can make a good contribution for the development of the team, and it will require funds for their management to get all those players in this season. If you watch Sevilla team very well from that 2021 till 2022, you will discover that the new players they signed into the team that made them to performed well, because they where defeating many teams to achieved victory from many competition. Sevilla management are more focused on manager than their players, if players are very good, it will be easy for the manager to perform well to shine to take the glory, but if the players are bad it will take the manager a long time before he can change the team, which Sevilla management need to understand this to stop sacking managers quickly. How are they going to spend a lot of money to bought players if they don't have any money and i have been discuss about this before because Sevilla had a lot of debt last year and they almost went bankrupt so that's why Sevilla have to sell some players to cover their debts and the effect from these situations is Sevilla performance gradually decline because they lost some of their important players and they actually were attempts to solved these situations by changing managers several times but unfortunately it didn't run well because those managers were unable to buy the players they wants because of financial condition Seville financial crisis cannot be solved within 2 or 3 years and in my opinion Sevilla condition for next season also will not so different because with their conditions Sevilla now is similar to mediocre team in Laliga because they were unable to bought good quality players now even last time i have heard is Sevilla cannot permanent Sergio Ramos status and Sevilla current manager Quique Sanchez Flores has been realized to these conditions so that's why he didn't promised high target to Sevilla fans next season and he said if Sevilla can avoiding relegation zone that's would be good achievement If this is really the issue of Sevilla then our only hope is for them not to go into relegation but just try to balance their book and remain above relegation zone. Though if only they could just try to use some Barcelona strategy of depending on some of their academy players and the fans shouldn't be pressurised to see their team up again rather be patient and hope this soon will, since it's expected to really affected by this bankruptcy foe some time depending on how the management can handle this, after all they're not as mighty as Barcelona though who has been facing similar issues but has been able to keep roughly their place in the domestic league. |

Ten Hag likely will continuein his place, he is not scared if he doesn't though, while some United fans might be blinded about the Carabao Cup and FA Cup United might not get to any point in getting more competitive trophy like the Europa League which are participating in this coming season and the Premier League simply because they are too inconsistent whereas they already have a kind of good squad that can do better though they have to improve their squad and I guessed Ten Hag has to be treating all players equally or respectfully and also improve himself tactically.
They can't "fire" an owner, owner is the one who fires people so while I believe that owners are the real problem and they have no idea how to run a club, I just think that firing the manager is only thing they can do. Yes I know this but if only Manchester United were like a club were club president can be voted on. I still think that ETH wasn't that much of a great manager, he was definitely a terrible one, but that doesn't mean that he had all the problems for this team, of course that wasn't the case and I think it must be pointed out that we are talking about ownership change not coming at all. They sold a small part to it, and I think there are some changes here and there, but I believe that they are not going to get any better at all, they are going to be doing quite badly this season, no matter who they have as the manager.
Actually that's just an hard truth about United, to be frank United have to work internally in order for them to properly have a positive growth season to seasons and possibly earn their reputation again but I don't think Ten Hag might be the right coach it's quite Ironic since I don't know tge right coach for them. |

There're so many of us hear who have regrets on not investing in bitcoin early, simply because we were ignorant of the truth, having regret wouldn't change until we moved on and starting investing because There're still hope for us especially from the fact that bitcoin is still the store of value, which means it will even appreciate more and with time we will still be among the gainers from it.
Good to see you have taken the step to invest in bitcon now but your story us quite Ironic to me especially from the fact that you have been in this forum since 2022 but were only concerned about bounties and airdrops, if you did take your time to explore the forum and learn things would have been much better though but no big deal just move on with diligence in our investment we will also have a bitcoin success story to share

It is indeed difficult to find an experienced coach or a great coach to coach a club that is in a downturn because they will face enormous challenges and pressure. It is different when the club's situation is not so bad, so the club can be developed well by the coach by recruiting great players, whereas Manchester United in conditions that are not good, but even so, there are definitely coaches who dare to take the challenge, no matter even if the conditions are not good. If the coach is great then they can handle the club and take risks, but only a few coaches dare to take these risks.
Actually, this team isn't that bad, it's just that they don't have any productive players in their squad. It's difficult to find a coach who can help this team recover from its downturn last season. It won't be long before the new season comes, of course Manchester United has to announce its decision whether Ten Hag will be retained or not, if not, who will replace him as coach at Manchester United, I'm still curious about this too but don't want to read the rumors out there, at least if Manchester United wants to change, they must be able to find a replacement for Ten Hag and new players who are better. productive in the main squad. Ten Hag is not the main problem the management were mostly the problem but still Ten Hag still has to get a high stake of it though from the fact that it's the coach responsibility to make some or majority of the players productive consistent but in terms of Ten Hag, he does do this somehow but majority are still inconsistent and he is always having issues with at least a player per season now let's see who will be the next player on the line. I still see some of their supporters hoping that Ten Hag will be retained because they believe in the process that Ten Hag can make Manchester United become a strong team, but they don't realize that in the EPL yesterday, in terms of statistics, Manchester United experienced many defeats compared to the previous season, which means in the Ten Hag era, it was in decline, just because Ten Hag brought Manchester United to win the FA Cup trophy, they continued to hope that Manchester United would defend it. but again there will be no changes if there is no major overhaul
Ten Hag likely will continuein his place, he is not scared if he doesn't though, while some United fans might be blinded about the Carabao Cup and FA Cup United might not get to any point in getting more competitive trophy like the Europa League which are participating in this coming season and the Premier League simply because they are too inconsistent whereas they already have a kind of good squad that can do better though they have to improve their squad and I guessed Ten Hag has to be treating all players equally or respectfully and also improve himself tactically. |
