101  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is it safe to keep your money in bank? on: March 03, 2024, 07:23:59 AM
Keeping money in the bank might be safe but it is not a good idea because leaving money in the bank for a longtime will definitely lose value. If you want money to be value I think just storing it in the bank is never a good idea. Instead of Me to keep my money in the bank and not knowing what to do with it, i will prefer to invest it in bitcoin that is reliable, this investment will be a long-term investment that will bring profit for me than keeping it in the bank.

It is no longer new that the money that is kept in the banks doesn't appreciate rather it depreciates due to the changes that banks charge but apart from the money used for investment in bitcoin or anything else don't you think that the banks are the best place to keep money? Besides bitcoin isn't generally acceptable for payment in most countries if all the money you have is used for investments how wil you go with your day to day expenses? I think until fiat is totally eradicated it is impossible to survive without banks imho.

Every user here has gotten a certain amount of knowledge because of experience over the time that we have been in the cryptocurrency space
And there's no doubt that there are also users who haven't had half as much experience and knowledge as the others
What knowledge have you acquired or what particularly investment decision did you make that has shaped you into what you are ?
What project did you regret going into or regret not going into that you feel could have affected you positively
What project did you indulge in that you are thankful that you did or what project are you thankful that you didn't indulge in
Share with us, learn learn from you

Looking out the level of my experience and exposure in the cryptocurrency world, the biggest lesson would be the mistake of not investing early ans my biggest experience is my ability to understand the security of my wallet. I don't regret anything cause it all gave me an opportunity to keep working and with so many blessings and lessons learnt while being here I think it's enough to say the blessings are far bigger than the pains.
103  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What is your strategy to win in this bull run? on: March 02, 2024, 08:33:53 PM
Bitcoin is my number crypto project and other are just alternatives to make.monwy.
I would have to leave my portfolio on Bitcoin at 60% then altcoins will be at 40%.
This isuch better for since the price of Bitcoin is almost doubling while there are altcoins that are still struggling to keep the pace to keep going bull. Once Bitcoin keep going bull, we are going to keep seeing altcoins following up the trend.

Likewise me Bitcoin is the only cryptocurrency that am going with 60% or more since it is the most liable and the most trusted among others right now and by the recent increase in the price which has made it gain more popularity and recognition i think putting it on 80% wont be bad cause after the bear markwt there will be a bull run just like we arw experiencing now. I think I can do altcoin like 20% to 30% strictly on short term investment since they will also appreciate in movement as bitcoin price goes up.

In case anyone is wondering what is happening with Chelsea, I have just told all the Chelsea supporters to just understand and take it that Chelsea is no longer a big team. When this understanding is meant by the Chelsea fans and even the Chelsea management they will come to normal realization and start building the club afresh. There is no how anyone is going to make a good season with the level of inconsistency that is accompanying Chelsea Football club. You cannot be grossly inconsistent and still make a good result in the present day English Premier League.

Even as Brentford has never been in a good form for some months now Chelsea was also enabled to beat them. In fact Chelsea have to struggle to luckily equalize the match in order to go home with just one point. Things have just really falling apart for Chelsea Football club

This is no longer funny I think I will agree with you that Chelsea is no longer among the big teams in England this will help a lot of their fans not to be emotionally down when ever they watch Chelsea match because at the end they will be disappointed, they have to beg for a draw after rushing to get an early goal that's too bad and to crown it all, they will be leaving the 11th position soon to move back to the 15th place where rhey belong this season, I believe the team will get better before 2026.
105  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: March 02, 2024, 08:00:36 PM
I agree with you. Thomas Tuchel will be sacked quickly if Bayern Munich fail to win by 2 goals against Lazio. Tuchel must win the Champions League if he wants to save his job. From what I have heard, the Bayern Munich management is trying their best to coach Xabi Alonso right now. But I haven't seen any credible news about this.
The European Champions League trophy could be a guarantee that Thomas Tuchel will not be replaced next season, but Bayern Munich struggle is more difficult than expected, a series of defeats and draws kicked them off the list of favorite teams to win. The beautiful story of dominating the Bundesliga will soon end, Bayern Munich must recognize Leverkusen prowess this season. Therefore, Bayern Munich management interest in Xabi Alonso is considered very reasonable, because next season Bayern Munich does not want to have a rival as tough as Leverkusen again. If Xabi Alonso leaves, Leverkusen performance could slowly decline, and Bayern Munich could start to rebuild its power again.

It will be a big mistake for the management of Bayern Munich to even consider keeping Thomas Tuchel even though he ends up winning the champions league this season which is not even possible due to their poor performance so far and right now their focus should be based on fighting to overcome Lazio in the second Leg of the champions League because from all indications Bayer Leverkusen has given them a tough fight by gradually overtaking them ans breaking the record of them dominating in the league for decades now. Bayern Munich has already recognised Leverkusen as a top them after thrashing them when they faced each other so basically Bayern has identified that Xabi Alonso can change the performance of their team so getting him for the job should be their major concern now.

$40k will cover a whole lot of investment but as a good investor who's interested in making profit, I will consider the future of the coins before doing my mathematical calculation, firstly I will give the biggest amount to bitcoin which will go around 40%, 20% to ETH, then spread the remaining 40% amount the other altcoins because anything is possible the least trusted altcoin can double the amount spent on the other coins while the most trusted altcoin can end up being a scam or shit coin.

What worse case scenario given then fact I have only 14$ on this wallet and of course not intend to deposit anymore funds to that wallet

You are always advised not to share your seed phrase with anyone for security purposes but since you have already discovered that someone has it meaning that the person can have access to your funds regardless of the amount, abandon the wallet, get a new one and make sure you don't expose it again. You can also help yourself by getting a stronger password and something very long that can't easily be memorized by anyone.
108  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: March 02, 2024, 02:22:17 PM
Xabi Alonso should definitely consider moving to a greater club when he has the chance. Do you think that he can make Leverkusen win the league again and again? Bayern has so much money that they could just buy all their good players, that's what they did to other teams.

All in all I believe that Xabi will fail at Leverkusen eventually if he stays for too long, he needs to capitalize on his success and move up already. They had just one good year, and if teams are fine with giving him the manager position already, then it would make sense and I would think that it would even be smart for them to do something like that. I get that it is not that clear just yet which team he will decide to go, but he should definitely move up.

I think Xabi Alonso may still have another beautiful season at Bayer Leverkusen looking at the performance of his team this season and looking at some experience that some managers have had when they move from a smaller club where they were doing great to a bigger club, I would suggest he remain at Leverkusen after winning the league this season but he will need to get more good players to support his team because looking at the current situation of the Bayern Munich team they will definitely get a good manager soon and they may get more players to add to the team next season.

What if Xabi move to another club and doesn't shine their what will become of him since he has already made a good name at Leverkusen? I think the decision is up to him to make it he wants to stay or move but he should consider a club that will help his managerial career before making his final decision but I still think Leverkusen is a good place for him.

When everything's going well, it's cool. But sometimes (often?) money problems lead to divorce. Suppose your spouse/husband gambles a lot, his or her loss/profit ratio is acceptable (so it's fine), but then one day he or she has bet it all and lost it all. You've got nothing left (and no savings either). What's your reaction? Has this ever happened to you?

The answer to the question is very simple a normal person isn't supposed to use all his life savings to gamble that's why they always say gamble responsibly. You will be happy and everyone around you will smile when you win big in gambling but do you expect them to be happy on hearing that you used everything you have to gamble no, I haven't seen or experienced that kind of situation and I won't accept that if anyone connected to me is found in that position to be very host.
110  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: People are selling now, what are you keeping for later and which are you selling on: March 02, 2024, 01:32:07 PM
Personally, the plan has always been to buy during the dip then sell to make more profit during the bull but looking at the current price movement of bitcoin and the way some altcoins are following suit there is a probability of more increase in the price ot bitcoin and since most alt coins are also pumping I plan on selling some ETH and a little amount from BTC.
111  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Quick profit is the only reason why we invest in Altcoins on: March 02, 2024, 01:16:02 PM
Investing in Altcoins had been what so many invested have been looking at these period. Believing that bitcoin's bull run will surely influence the price of the altcoins and hive them massive gains. Literally if bitcoin rises altcoins follow suit but this is the only reason i see that makes potential investors to invest in Bitcoin. There is no other interest as they feel its unsafe to store value or wealth, cant be used for p2p transactions and it cant be trusted to hodl for long. If you think there is any other reasons that makes investors put their money in altcoins feel free to share. I would love to know.

I agree with you. There is no other reason someone would choose to invest in altcoins other than getting big profits. I think big profits are more appropriate than quick profits. I think meme coins and buying coins in the early selling stage will give you a quick profit. I personally trade altcoins and take profits and invest them in Bitcoin. I think Bitcoin is still the best for storing your funds.

Apart from having investments in cryptocurrency be it bitcoin or alt coins, the primary reason for venturing into business is for profit making isn't it? Most people invest in altcoin to save their money even though it is very risky but they do this hoping to get a better reward of their money when there is a bull run so most times they don't invest to get quick money because most times investors buy altcoins they hold for a very long time hoping for a bull run so I think for some one who is looking forward to getting quick money, they can't invest in altcoin to hold for a long time
112  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it possible to inherit a gambling debt? on: March 01, 2024, 06:34:29 PM
I have heard stories about gambling debt being inherited and being paid by their family members in real life.
It becomes really frustrating when we have to pay the debt of our elders without us even knowing about it.
Further more, the concern increases when there was no collateral or evidence for that debt.
Just like you said, I've also experienced similar story of a debt that was inherited and paid by family members after the person's demise. But I think that's one of the most frustrating things a bereaved family should go through and would suggest that the international law authorities do something to change such policies. For someone to be indebted in gambling, it simply means that the person was irresponsible in it and telling his family members to pay for his irresponsibility when he's no more doesn't sit well with me. Inheritance of gambling debt is absolutely possible possible must be stopped if you ask me
113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: March 01, 2024, 04:57:57 PM
-snip
Napoli has lost the quality it had last season and it will be difficult for them to regain that form. Winning a game in five matches doesn't show the right will to compete for the Seria A title. One of the reasons for this poor run was the absence of Victor Osimhen due to his engagement in the African Nations Cup.

He is back and they have started having positive results. In the last three games, there has been some improvement. They played a draw with Barcelona in the UCL second round, would have won the game with Cagliari if not for the late equalizer, and got a convincing win yesterday against Sassuolo. The return of the Nigerian striker has added more quality to the team and it has also been seen that the partnership between him and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia has been rekindled.
-snip

Honestly, I do not think he is going to stay even if Napoli qualify for the Champions League. Because he is already getting great offers and there is no reason for him to actually turn those offers down and stay in Napoli. I believe it is just a matter of time before he leaves Napoli. I believe that he was supposed to leave in the last season. But Napoli was able to win the league title and also was able to convince him to stay. But this time nothing like that is going to happen in my opinion. They are not winning the league title. And if Osimhen actually stays, he is a fool.
Just like you, I think it'll be very difficult for Napoli to keep their most lethal weapon in the person of Victor Osimhen beyond the end of the current season and that's because of the numerous top European clubs that are trying to secure the services of the Nigeria striker. It's been reported that he's received offers from top English Premier League clubs like Arsenal and Chelsea and rumours also have it that he's also been monitored by French champions Paris Saint Germaine. According to a report I read in the media recently, Victor Osimhen's release clause will exceed 110 million pounds but for striker that's as prolific as the Nigeria international, I think most of these clubs wouldn't mind to trigger the release clause. Since he returned to the club from the CAF African Cup Of Nations, he's been very instrumental to the clubs impressive results but will he continue to shine for the club beyond the current season? I think it's question that only time will give us the best answer
114  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is this the Season of Airdrops? on: February 29, 2024, 10:48:41 PM
You know, looking at all these I never knew that there will be a time for Airdrops paying people real big. Is true that Impossible things happen here, but Airdrops? Never thought of that

you should ask airdrop participants how many campaigns they participated in and how many made big money.
Of course, not all airdrops pay their participants well. I'm sure more airdrop campaigns don't pay their participants or even only a small amount.
airdrops should be completely free, like just doing social media work or being part of the testnet project. As long as you don't spend money to make a claim, it can still be profitable even if the results are small.

Nowadays it's too hard to believe or trust in airdrops even though it's free but still many  of them are scam which is they will say in that day they will distribute the airdrops but when the day comes only nothing we got so it's hard for being part in airdrops but if we are too lucky then there's a time we got one. Anyways compared to the past past few years airdrops was very known cause they will give free money. But after wards it will change and Maybe the reason of it is they don't have enough support for their projects.

You are saying the truth, over the past few years there has been so many good news about airdrops which has given a lot of individuals feel money especially those who are patience enough to follow all the required procedures, who get access to the information concerning a particular coin who's project is been used as airdrop. Despite so many scams that has been seen lately from airdrops I think one shouldn't give up since it doesn't require any financial investments before partaking in the airdrops project.
115  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What are your expectations on ICE Network in the future? on: February 29, 2024, 10:34:38 PM
The Ice Network team has confirmed they have completed the distribution of ICE tokens to all mobile miners who participated in the app-based mining program over the past months. This marks the fulfillment of their commitment to reward users who contributed to the network's growth. Today, ICE token has been listed on major exchanges like Bitget, Bitmart, Poloniex and others according to their announcements. So far volume has been within expected levels for a new listing of this nature. The focus now turns to expanding the token's visibility and availability to a wider global audience.

As a blockchain project aiming to bring crypto functionality to mobile through features like decentralized identity, storage and more, Ice Network's progress in distributing its token and uplifting to new trading venues is an important step. The coming period will be key to observing how the Ice Network advances their technologies and grows real-world usage of the ICE economy over the long run.

But what do you guys think about supply distribution, where will the price of ICE go from here in the future?
It seems like the name of the Ice Network project is still very new to me and also very foreign to me, so I don't know much about the Ice Network project.
And my advice, if you intend to invest, make sure the DYOR is correct before investing. And always do thorough research to determine whether you want to get involved or not after you've done your research, because nowadays we have to be very careful about getting involved in new projects.

Ice network project is still very new even though they have attracted the attention of so many investors who benefited in mining their tokens and seeing that they are already making waves  since thry have been listed by some exchanges I think it will be better if one chooses to make a proper finding before choosing to invest regardless if the project is new or old but the life span of any projects should be considered before any investment.
116  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoins that you trust most on: February 28, 2024, 06:27:44 PM
Personally, I am a person who does not want to take risks, especially big risks.
Therefore, I choose a sure thing, which really cannot be doubted.
because I don't think things like this are experiment.
But people's opinions are different, this is my opinion.
I choose ETH which has never been doubted by investors.

If you don't take risk as you said then I doubt if you are ready to do cryptocurrency investments because sometimes the projects we trust tend to disappoint us that's why when it comes to investment every one is advised to invest with spare money, an amount that one can add to lose and not to borrow for cryptocurrency investments since it not a quick money giving scheme. You made a good choice to always stick to the ETH investment that you trust I believe you invested based on your personal observation not the information you got from the opinion of others.
117  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which psychological stage of the crypto market are we in? on: February 28, 2024, 06:01:23 PM
We’re all familiar with the well known, Wall Street Cheat Sheet. I would suggest the sentiment is somewhere between Optimism & Belief.
Definitely right as the market started to pumps again and the thrill is about to begin especially once the halving is done.
Many are rushing into the market now, you can see good news all over the social media platform regarding big institutions investing with Bitcoin and even some government releasing their positive statements towards Bitcoin adoption so yeah, we are in the stage of Optimism and Belief and if the good news continues, we might see another peak.

Yeah we are definitely in the early bull phase. I don’t see the peak excitement & interest from newbies to suggest anything but that. We should start to see a more sustained surge upwards towards the end of the current year. I do not expect real parabolic momentum until 2025 though. Sit back & enjoy the show guys.
We are in the bull season and we all need to start working and looking for other good projects we can invest and make Money without stress. If we know how to invest in Bitcoin and look for good altcoins to put our money, we might be surprised to benefits from such a project without with time. Crypto market is still going close to the bull and all we have to do now is to keep buying because this time around, the price of Bitcoin is going to reach $100k and more.

Yeah I think this is the best time to get a good altcoin to push some money into so as to make more funds during this bull run, the price of bitcoin hits $64 today hopefully we may experience it getting up to $100k just like you said so i think it's an opportunity to invest in an altcoin project since they are rising even as the price of bitcoin keeps going up. Considering the volatile nature of bitcoin it is also important we monitor a good project before investing in to because a little drop in the price of bitcoin may cause a total crash of some altcoin projects.
118  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to check if an altcoin is a scam on: February 28, 2024, 05:41:49 PM
It's like I have emphasized on this so many times so I know quite to wear that you must make a research in any new project before you can be able to understand or no if the project of altcoin is a scam Project or not a scam Project that is why it is necessary for every cryptocurrency investors to make a proper research to know available coin and the non-valuable coin so that when they invest on it they will expect to make a profit but when you have not make a proper research and you invest in a coin that is every tendency that that Project might be a scam one because you have not go deep to make a possible research concerning the project before investment. To know a scam Project can be only be possible when you have cross check the furtherance of the project very well.
Most at times, merely looking at the project one can tell the project is actually scam like and it's quite enough reason to avoid them. First go through their social media platforms, read and understand every little detail sorrounding the project using their white paper and as well check out the hypes and trend if anything suspicious before probably investing one's money.

You don't know if a project is a scam by merely looking at it what does your look have to do about scam projects will you discover a scam project that has been well programmed by profession scammers by looking at it without making proper investigation? Apart from using their white paper to make more findings a good research and looking at their social media handles can also help to find out the history of the project and to monitor the news and information they pass across their social media platforms will give you more insight if you should invest or run as they are scammers unseen.
119  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2023/24 on: February 28, 2024, 05:26:26 PM
~~~~
Of course that's the only way for Girona to totally secure the second position of the league table only if they can be more consistent enough to win all there upcoming matches because right now they are on a very tight position with Barcelona and any mistake of losing any matches could course the team the second position, so in terms like these the only prayer of the both side is for the other to lose match so that they can have more points over them. Considering there upcoming matches I think Barcelona is more on a difficult situation than Girona because they will be meeting Athletic Club on there next match and in as much as Athletic Club may have not gotten to the position Barcelona is but there performance is very impressive so I doubt if Barcelona will be able to win them because if they can draw there match against Granada that's currently at the relegation Area of the league table there chances of wining Athletic club is very low, so if they mistakenly lose or draw there match against Athletic club then Girona will be a bit far ahead of them on the league table.
Girona doesn't need to compete for second place, their goal is to qualify for the Champions League, I mean as long as Girona is still in the top 4 then they will qualify for the Champions League. The point gap between Girona and Bilbao is very high, it is 10 points which seems very difficult for Bilbao to compete with. Girona are not in a dangerous position even though Barcelona are 2 points below them, meaning second place doesn't mean much if it's just about the Champions League.

Real Madrid leads the standings with a gap of 6 points from Girona, 8 points from Barcelona and 13 points from Atletico Madrid. The title race doesn't look interesting because Real Madrid's chances are much higher than the other 3 teams. Girona and Barcelona can still hope, but as long as Real Madrid's performance remains consistent then nothing will change until the end of the season.
Real Madrid is the best and comfortable team now in Laliga and they are the only team again that is having is best season too, there is no competition to stress them, by now Girona will have admit that the top is not made for them because it's not easy to march down the all strong team at the same time, I see this season as best season for Girona even though they will finish in fourth place because the only thing that matters is to appear in Champions league, and I will be happy to see them as Runner up but it not going to be easy because Barcelona are gradually move up, Girona only have two points different from them and the points gap is too small for Girona to maintain, Barcelona last five matches was good one compared to Girona that won three and loses two so finishing in second place is under probability due to low performance they are having.
I think Girona's Champions League dream has come true. After this ranking, it would be a miracle if they fall below the top four. Because they struggle and the more they struggle, the more they win. There is little time left until the end of the league. From now on, Girona will fight for higher, not lower. I think they made the biggest surprise in Europe this year by showing such a consistent championship race.

Girona has been able to secure their spot in the champions league next season but I hope they don't fall back to their former position next season because it takes consistency to be able to remain very solid in top4 since so many teams will be putting their best to ensure they also climb to a better position which they have been dreaming to also have the opportunity to play in the champions League so I think Girona team will have a lot of work to do to be able to fight to remain as a team in the top4 position and will need getting more good players to keep the team from ending below the top 4 in the league each season.
120  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: February 28, 2024, 05:08:01 PM
In your opinion, on Matchday 27, which match will be the most interesting to watch?
For me, the match I am most looking forward to and perhaps the one that interests me the most is the Man City vs Man United match. Because I think these two clubs from the same city will really put on a super aggressive match. And actually I am curious about the performance of Man City, who managed to score many goals in the match against Luton and whether Man City can also do the same thing against Man United.
Actually I like the Manchester derby. It was one of the most exciting derbies in the English league. But in the last few seasons Manchester United has really turned into a mediocre team. They performed badly and I think at the moment they are not at the same level as City. So I think the Manchester derby this time is for City to win. This is not like the previous few seasons where the match between the two teams was a Bigmatch and the result of the match could not be determined because both teams had the same strength.

The Manchester derby was one of the exciting derby to watch as the outcome usually ends in a fight but since Manchester United left her position to a small club in EPL the outcome of the match is easily predicted by everyone because Manchester City is now a big team bigger than Manchester United in terms of performance and number of recent matches won.
