1  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Reason people are so adamant to invest in Bitcoin on: June 13, 2024, 09:34:45 PM
The reason is that our country lacks truth, honesty and sincerity which has helped scammers achieve their goals in frauding ,even within family members, friends and others are no longer who you really think they are when it comes to money, i don't know if it is our economy, situations we find ourselves has turned people behaving like that or it has to do with our moral upbringing. Lies has become the order of the day in our country and so people are confused when it has to do with Bitcoin because even if they you have the real source that is genuine ,they are sceptical of being scammed again not that they don't believe or adamant, is to get a trustworthy person. Our society now, knows Bitcoin is real.
Well you no fit blame because only the way yahoo boys sef don flood the society with this kind thoughts e go really hard for them to believe any thing genuine. Plus so many people don already be victim of many ponzi schemes and dem no go like be victims again especially when that big one hit so many persons @ MMM infact that thing make plenty people really skeptical about anything investment and doubling profits.

Did you guys trust on gambling algorithms or do the random betting in the gambling site to check the current luck in the gambling sites…
Do not forget that casinos have house edge which is still the reason if they have higher customers, they will make more money because gamblers are losing while gambling than making money. This is what we all know and we do not consider it as manipulation. I only just gamble for fun because I can not trust any gambling site because everything they set is to make money for them from customers.
Thats the best mentality to go with when gambling because if you know that the casino house itself is meant for business then you would know that every business man would like to make profit from his business and you losing is exactly the way they actually make profits so don't ever feel you have the upper hand at this just go simply with the fun mentality towards gambling.

But in the transfer market last summer, Barcelona was not that aggressive in the transfer market. And maybe something similar will happen in the transfer market this time. Because with the current financial conditions, Barcelona just has to be clever at making the most of what they have. or if they want to bring in players then they just need to add a few potential players who haven't been looked at by many other clubs and whose prices certainly won't be too high.

Barcelona will definitely need to strengthen their squad if they want to build a title-worthy squad. This season we don't see the expected performance from this Barcelona squad. If you want to win the title, you need more consistency of performance. Real Madrid have strengthened their squad by adding Mbappe to the squad. Barcelona also need to add experienced players to the squad.

Joan Laporta must raise funds. FLick will not be able to strengthen this squad without raising funds. FLick is an experienced coach. If Barcelona can stabilize this squad, I have no doubt that Barcelona can occupy the second place in the table. However, if we want to win the title, we definitely need a stronger squad.

Barcelona performance needs a special focus in order to enhance their strength. That is the best fact. Joan Laporta and the Barcelona management need to focus more on raising funds for Xavi (not Flick, because I take it as an error, which maybe you meant Xavi) in order for him to be able to bring more talented players because still maintaining the second position will not make any sense. Even in this season, Real Madrid gave them a point gap of 10 points, so facing that will not be a small battle. 

Although Real Madrid has now added mbappe to their squad, who will make them stronger, if Barcelona doesn’t add more effort to get more talented players that will face the performance of Real Madrid, I think they will definitely maintain that second position, which means winning the title might be so hard, but let's see how the transfer market will be before the season. 


That Barcelona team really needs some serious hardwork and for now they are no way going to be in the standards of real Madrid because Real Madrid gotten everything covered from talents to skills and all are of the right age @ young and vibrant. Barcelona needs serious back up and players in that squad before they can seem to get things working because if they start the new season like this they are no way going to make it to the battle the league with Real Madrid.

I don’t understand this narrative that Finidi George is not a good manager for the Super Eagles. The fans and NFF came to this conclusion after just 2 games? How come one of our own isn’t good enough to coach the national team. A couple of hours ago, news broke out that the NFF is looking to appoint a technical adviser to “assist” Finidi George. The way I see it, the NFF is not confident in the ability of a local manager and will look for any excuse to hire a foreign manager.
That's how fans and spectators tend to behave and beside you can't really expect them not to be that impatient knowing how slim the chances that super eagles won't qualify for the tournament if they continue to be in this bad form. Nigerians are just agitated by their slim chances of qualifications, that's all and nothing more and I believe this isn't like a club side management that you get to give the coach long period to work things out

1. Have knowledge about Bitcoin.

No rush, take your time learn about Bitcoin, how e they work en underlying technology ( Blockchain), the risk and rewards way they inside also learn about wallet ( where them they store Bitcoin) where and how you fit exchange them, the measure way you fit take secure your wallet.


Having knowledge about bitcoin is a good idea bit you can't learn it all before you start your investment else you could miss a lot of chance because bitcoin can be so unpredictable so I will say Having basic knowledge about bitcoin before investment is a good idea
Learning about wallet could be a basic knowledgebut learning about how blockchainworks entirely could be challengingfor a newbie although there'rebasic aspect that can be easily grasp, however if someone is trying  to invest in Bitcoin  then longterm investment should be focused on without any intension to exchange it soon.
Once he/she is already in the investment , then learning about the technical and longterm learnings can be done with ease
For me if you are really really interested in making or saving up your money as Bitcoin investment then there is probably just no complicated thing involved, so just know the basis and not much tech stuffs because what's even important is actually the zeal or learning seriousness towards what you aim at achieve by saving your money in Bitcoin.

With African football, it's mostly about politics. There's no way they'll tell me the football federation cannot sit down and join heads together to pick a perfect coach that can bring out the best of the players Nigeria have. I've been saying it before and I'll say it again, Nigeria may not have a squad that can compete with the best national teams in the world, but they have a team that can dominate games and win World Cup qualifiers comfortably in my opinion.

Sacking Persiro to hire a low-level manager was a bad idea after he led the team to the AFCON final; his only crime was failing to win the trophy, but on the bright side, he was developing good chemistry and getting the team to work again; he needed more time with the team, but as usual, the NFF would play politics. They took him out and hired someone with little to no experience.

They needed a "Yes sir" manager who would select the players they recommended and split salary and bonuses with them. Persiro was not making things any easy on them.

 Did you listen to Ndidi's pre-match conference comments? Who did we ended up with such a Captain.
At the long run of everything it's still boils down to one same problem that this country is facing and that's same old corruption, I mean it's basically the moved they did with sacking persiro as the head coach because for a little moment there Nigerians were actually kinda confident with the super eagles playing because they developed some kind of rhythm with the old coach and most importantly they were getting results which is the most important and vital thing as a country head coach but the NFF had to invented because of the final victory defeat which obviously should have handled with a positive view.
7  Other / Off-topic / Re: Is getting addicted to gambling right or wrong? on: June 12, 2024, 08:29:39 PM
Let's reverse it that it's just right to get addicted in gambling, we'd see gamblers that are doing the right thing. Getting loans for gambling, selling everything that they worked hard for to have money to gamble. I'm just saying the effects of being an addicted gambler and that perspective of thinking that it can be a right thing for a gambler, that's how it is going to be. Not gonna be accurate at all but that's of possibility. That's why looking at that perspective will also allow you to see the other sides of it and you're free to judge it if it's right or wrong.
Since it's very easy for one to become addicted to gamble, I think the only way op could be able to know that it is not good to become addicted is if he has tested it, OP should become addicted for a while and he could be able to tell and take a good or otherwise decision from his story. However gamble is not a thing one should get addicted to, if he feels like addition is good he should try and become one, either drugs or gamble is not a thing one should get addicted to. The side effects of addiction is very bad, and it could cost ones life.
Why would you even say that the Op should experience it himself? Although I understand the reason for your sarcastic tone but it's really not okay to wish upon someone something that's literally crazy and could mess you all up in just a matter of seconds. A gambling addiction is no joke and besides it's totally time wasting and a whole lot more stress that comes with being addicted and that includes you being an addict to something entirely different to Gambling.

I am also happy to hear that Erik ten Hag will stay with Manchester United after winning the FA Cup. Since he is not leaving Manchester United but is staying, it must be a good decision. Manchester United is still a young team, and they have enough good players in their squad and if they can bring in some more good players then the squad will be more complete. Although not faring well this season, Manchester United have certainly seen a lot of progress as they have qualified for the FA Cup. The team is still very strong as we have seen Man United win the FA Cup after beating the mighty Manchester City. However, I think that Erik ten Hag will be able to succeed if every player is trained well next season.
It is appropriate for Ten Hag to be retained because Ten Hag has shown a little better progress, so Manchester United management must be patient with the process that has been carried out by Ten Hag and must even be fully supported.
The success of winning the FA Cup last season might be a strong reason for Manchester United management to keep Ten Hag, and I think it would be the right decision.
I don't know why but I feel the only reason why people are now of a different opinion about ten hag is maybe due to the fact that he actually won the FA cup in the last game of the season because I believe that this man has obviously gotten some support back because of this trophy, i mean this is actually the same person that the whole united team and fans wanted him out because of how badly Manchester united actually performed but now it seems he won the FA cup and then everyone is now thinking other wise.

In fact, there is nothing impossible in every match or if the match before 90 minutes is called, the match could possibly have a team that is superior or not, it all depends on who luck favors, Barcelona could win Laliga next season, although  Real Madrid having just brought in Mbappe does not guarantee that a star-studded club will always dominate the league or game, in fact a non-top club could conquer the king of the league.
Barcelona should not be taken lightly even though they are currently having financial problems. The Blaugrana remain strong candidates and they also have players who have the mentality to win. Yes, Real Madrid is always the favorite because next season their strength will also increase. I have quite a lot of respect for the La Liga contestants, every team that works hard will definitely get maximum results too. Who would have thought that Giron would be able to compete so hard at the top that they had the right to qualify for the Champions League? Football sometimes has a lot of mystery and is difficult to predict.
This also applies to Barcelona who should not take Girona lightly because in fact this season Barcelona has never managed to beat Girona in the 3 matches they have played in one full season. So the quality of Girona players is not much different from Barcelona players at the moment and like it or not, Hansi Flick must be able to overcome this challenge with the available players. Hansi Flick has plans to sell several players and let's see to what extent Barcelona's finances can meet Flick expectations for next season.
The major issues for flick would be the fact that Barcelona themselves are almost entirely broke and for a club like Barcelona that wants to return to their former glory they would definitely need to bring in some players and that would require funds which at the moment seems to be some of their issues but even at that I still expect them to be different atleast they have some good players, it just all boils down to the fact that a good coach with good mentality needs to handle the club.

I don't find at all funny to watch friendly games because teams are not giving everything they got and it's just a waste of time in my opinion. They also want to avoid injuries and friendly games purpose are just to make sure you can put in practice what you learned in training because there is no real prize for actually winning a friendly game.

There is also the other side , where people chose to bet on friendly games and they end up losing on odds 1.05 or 1.10 out of nowhere so it's safer to stay out of betting on friendly games.  Grin
Friendly matches are not for betting, that's true. Often the coach in friendly matches wants to see what form the player is in and he may make too many substitutions, and the importance of winning is not so great. I rarely watch friendly matches, perhaps only if there are no other matches that I would like to watch. Today we can watch Portugal - Ireland, they may want to win after losing to Croatia, no one wants to start the tournament after several defeats.
Now that's a point to hold about friendly games and I feel that's why many teams do feel the urge to continue winning because like you said no team or coach would prefer losing a match because even if there is no point attached to it , it's sure demoralizes the mentality of the players involved in it and also reduces the team spirit although it's certain that friendly games dont really carry the same flare as the tournament games but I still do enjoy watching it, for me  anything soccer is worth watching.

13  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Concerns grow over online gambling among teens on: June 11, 2024, 04:49:28 PM
I have met teenagers who are very well versed in gambling games and come up with various interesting strategies and try to win, but even they are at risk and can lose everything. If we talk about ordinary teenage players who don’t even think about any strategies, then of course this causes a great degree of concern in society. Teenagers simply place bets and hope that they will be lucky, without thinking about the consequences, they just want to win and brag to their friends about their winnings. Also, among colleges, fashion for something, for example, gambling, is spreading very quickly; everyone wants to try what it is and place a bet.

Naturally, this will have consequences if left uncontrolled, minimal control is probably needed so that they play less, but I think the problem is difficult to solve, because with online CIC, teenagers can play from other people's accounts, posing as an adult player.

Well being a teenager is something like an exposure era because it's definitely going to really hard for them to control that hormones that makes them feel like gambling always and its what drives them also to make and take drastic decision without fully understanding that there are consequences to their actions most especially not when they are gambling because that's the least of their worries @being addict but in the long run of things the most addicted set of individuals in the Gambling world are I believe teenagers even if there isn't proper evaluation of this theory of mine.
14  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Converting altcoin profits into Bitcoin? on: June 10, 2024, 11:54:55 PM
-snip-
Take note that i do not keep any altcoins in my portfolio. There is no strategy that has proven to be successful in predicting altcoins, how can you trust some developers, when a lot of them have turned out to be scammers in the past, and if you are investing because an influencer recommends the coin, then that is a crazy thing to do. I agree with the point that you can get lucky with a few altcoins if you buy a lot of them, but what if you don't get lucky.
Not all altcoin are trash - some of them can also bring you profit. Just avoid most of the new altcoin created when the narrative is high like memes or AI - but of course I don't recommend you buy an altcoin if you're never convinced it can give you return.

Of course it's not a problem if you only invest in bitcoin - but anyone who diversifies their assets into several altcoin is not entirely to blame. I also own bitcoin and tend to be more confident in its future potential than altcoin - but I have a few percent of altcoin in my portfolio that I at least believe can give me return.
Yeah that's true, I think it's all in the process of how you make out your own research and observation, I believe the crypto space is very big enough for someone to actually give you their own insight about altcoins so you check it out and draw your conclusions because some altcoins definitely are worth buying and that's because I deem fit to be whereas you can just focus on the latter but in the long of everything it's still all about profits and safety in buying the right stuff.

It's nice to open a new topic and discuss it in advance, thank you OP. When we look at the squads of Real Madrid and Manchester City, who have won the Champions League for the last two years, in general, there are not many teams that can come close to these two teams in the UCL.

I think there is a high probability that Real Madrid and Manchester City will win the cup this season. Like the general opinion, there are always surprises, of course I leave that aside. With Mbappe, Real Madrid became very strong offensively, so Vinicous Jr. was doing all the work alone in the future, now they brought an incredibly agile football player to help him.
Well that's the most popular opinion about it and I actually understand why everyone is of this opinion, I mean the likes of Liverpool, arsenal, Bayern Munich, PSG and so many who would have actually challenge these clubs have fall out of the hands of actually trying their very best although let's see what the future holds this season maybe some new team can shock the competition since we already have the likes of the wonder team present @xabi Alonso

Zidane is waiting to train France and Bayern Munich whether until when this will be realized because Bayern Munich has currently chosen Kompany with a long contract, while the French national team still believes in the current coach.

Even though English is a language that is often used throughout the world but why Zidane is so unconfident or chemistries to train English clubs there is no intention at all in addition to several other reasons, I think Zidane will be more unemployed because he only chooses the team he wants not from the offers that come.
The language barrier is only an unreasonable reason, English is the most commonly used language throughout the world, it is not that difficult to learn English if one has the desire to learn it. Ronaldo, who just came to the Arab league, is already able to master Arabic well, even though in the learning process, Arabic is more difficult than English.

He has wasted too many opportunities to manage new clubs, the Premier League should be a challenge for him after achieving success with Real Madrid in La Liga. The Premier League will become more competitive if he manages one of the clubs there because there will be comparable competitors for Guardiola. Zidane has missed too many offers that have come his way due to waiting to be proposed to by the team he wants, if it continues like this he will spend more of his time without managing any clubs.
For me I don't even feel its the language barrier, I think maybe he is scared of answering a name or tired of all the hassles that's involved in actually coaching a club under pressure like Manchester united. If it's the language then I don't think many manager would have landed any job in England because most of them are actually not native English speakers.

The scammer will message you and offer you an online job. The scammer will be receiving the money from the job and he will not later pay you anything. Or it can be a fake job but the scammer will later ask you to pay an amount of money to get more and better offer. The victim account that the scammer created for the victim on the platform would be getting credited but it is not money but just a number to deceive the victim. If the person pay the money that the scammer told him to pay, that is just how he or she has been scammed.

https://cointelegraph.com/news/fbi-crypto-scams-work-from-home-remote-working

Tell your people about this. They should avoid online scam like this one.
Well there is a reason why they say the first thing to always watch when surfing the internet for jobs opportunities is to actually avoid any too good to be true policies because those are the ones that would be get you into deep shit especially if you are the type that your greed can be easily aroused. There are so many cases of this type of scams and one of the most popular ones am well aware of is the trending job offers that some freelance sites that are filled with scammers present as legit opportunities. It's quite simple though, they offer you a job with big money and then still ask you to register with the company online which requires a certain amount of payment then after that still give you work and when done with it still ask you to pay for some other crazy things.

Well just as it has the ability to be profitable that's the same way it has the ability to be self destructive too and thats why it's always advisable for everyone to know their limit with their gambling habits. There are some gamblers who tend to get lost in their quest to actually make some little profits from their session while gambling and that is basically the cause that results to the inability for them to quit the cause and accept the fact that they have lost.
19  Other / Off-topic / Re: Gambling is a fatal mistake on: June 08, 2024, 02:58:10 PM
Gambling is a mind game,if you don't have the mind to lose money in the search of money,then you just have to step aside.Its not everybody's thing.Its meant for those who have already determined,that nomatter what it takes them,they would still gamble.They are people who wants to make money and maybe use it for something big.Nowadays, people feel those that engage in gambling are those who have decided that their future isn't important to them.
Gambling is something that is bad to some people,while it's good to some People,those that win Everytime cannot say it is a fatal thing to do,while those who lose Everytime won't advice anybody to ba a part of it.

You're right, gambling can be a mental challenge. It's important to be prepared for losses and have clear limits.  It's not a guaranteed path to riches, and some people enjoy the competition and excitement more than the potential winnings.

Well everyone is off their own believe about gambling so you are free to say whatever we like but I do have my own strong notion about the habit though and I believe people who are of the opinion that they can make lots of cash or money from gambling are more than the ones who feel they can take it as some kind of entertainment or enjoyment as I believe even the ones who want to take it as form of entertainment too still needs to win for them to be entertained, I mean no one loses and Calls it fun or am I wrong on this ?.
20  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: If we lose in gambling, what do we need to do? on: June 07, 2024, 05:34:48 PM
The most important thing is that if you find out you’re losing a lot and come all you need to do so or stay  calm and try to take deep breaths away or you can stay continue, but don’t gamble because you have lost a lot and you want to gain back what you have lost because you just end up losing more so I will prefer you to stay calm try not to gamble more than what you have been gambling before even you have to reduce the gambling habit a little bit understand yourself before going into gambling again for those that cannot stop the gambling,but please reduce the gambling habits and try not to forget and getting them back your money but focus on gambling, rightly
The thing is that the first instincts that always kicks in is the one to chase back the money you have lost and it takes a well discipline and strick person to actually break out of that taught of wanting to win back your money that you have lost. This is practically what makes some of my friends to actually call gambling a habits that comes with an extra supernatural urge and the reason why is because they fall into the temptations if always wanting to play more rather than just pause and stop whenever it's a losing spree.
