Messi was never a perfect fit for PSG, ever since he arrived he hasn't formed that connection with the team nor the fans and it was certain he was going to leave after they were eliminated by Bayern Munich in the RO16 of the CL. Reliable sources confirm that Messi had already told PSG he wasn't staying one month ago, but i expected him to act professional and see out his contract without problems with the club, thus i am surprised he went on an unauthorized trip to Saudi Arabia. I know Messi has been suspended for two weeks, but i don't think we'll ever see him in a PSG shirt again, even after the expiration of his suspension, as for where he'd go, there are many options, the MLS, Saudi Pro League, Barcelona, and i expect other offers to come in in the next months.

Whilst my money is on City progressing to the final, my decision has nothing to do with Real Madrid's bad form in the la liga, mind you that it is almost certain that Barcelona are going to be crowned la liga champions in Spain, thus Real Madrid know they are not playing for anything else in the la liga, that is why they have the liberty to rest some of their players, and the reason why they are dropping points so cheaply, it no longer matters to them. Having said that, the CL (and copa del rey) is all that's left for them to play for, thus they'll do everything within their power to keep their players fresh to battle it out with City, a City side still in three competitions and struggling with fatigue.

I think it is high time Frank Lampard resigns, you cannot be losing football matches left, right and center and still remain in the job, waiting patiently for your employers to fire you, you ought to make things easier for them and just step aside, he has brought his losing streak from Everton to Chelsea, i know Chelsea were not doing well prior to his appointment, but no one can deny the fact that he has made them worse.

Having said that, Chelsea are very lucky that they have got 39 points, if it was anything lower than this, then they might have been pulled into a relegation battle. Looking at Chelsea's fixtures from now until the end of the season, i don't think they can get more than 3 points, but just because they are a little bit far from some of the teams below them (who would also drop points likewise), they are safe.

ChartBuddy is not a regular user, but a bot that cannot engage in discussions. I don't think ChartBuddy is constituting a nuisance in the forum, the bot posts this Bitcoin price updates in the correct section: speculation > wall observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking and discussion. If the bot was prolly placed in another section, or if it made posts all around the forum then it would have been spam, but the speculation section is the appropriate section for it and i don't think the WO posters have any problem with ChartBuddy.

Selling people's data and account in the dark web is not a new thing, though i think selling personal data is more popular than selling accounts and can be used quicker and more efficiently by the buyers, they could spread phishing links easily through bought email addresses, and they can also use personal information of the victims for identity theft, plus many other options available to these hackers/scammers.

Having said that, buying a hacked cryptocurrency exchange account might be difficult to use for the buyer, the buyers are definitely money launderers who for obvious reasons want to evade KYC, but i don't think they can successfully use a hacked exchange account without first compromising the email address or SIM card connected to the exchange account.

Chelsea have nothing but their pride to fight for tonight, Chelsea have lost their last five consecutive games, if they lose today it would make it 6 straight losses, and it is definitely going to be one of their worst run in the clubs history. Having said that, i don't think Chelsea would lose today, they can't continue to lose matches in this way, and i expect to see a reaction from their players, it is also a London Derby, and there is so much pride at stake, i think Chelsea can manage to draw this game and get at least a point, but a draw would be a damaging result for Arsenal, and would definitely mean that the trophy is going to Manchester City.

Bounty managers expect their participants to know some basic security tips such as having multiple email addresses, you set them apart, some for trusted websites, some throwaway ones for untrusted website and for public exposure, thus whenever you receive an email in your throwaway email addresses, you'd be extra careful how you'd handle them, and you might just decide never to open any email received in it. Having said that, next time one wants to apply in a bounty that requires posting your email address, let them use their throwaway email address, and as for your TG username, do not respond to unsolicited messages if you receive them.

Well i don't consider most altcoins to be sustainable for the long period, quite a lot of them are pump and dump coins that have no actual utility, mind you also that you shouldn't listen to people when they pitch their altcoin projects to you as being good, so many of them are just selling you that idea because they also bought the coins and they want it to pump fast, so they can dump it on the next available buyer.

Having said that, due to the fact that altcoins can pump and dump pretty fast, investors can also accrue profit with them if they choose the right one, but that's almost like looking for a needle in a haystack, thus it is better not to buy now and wait until when the bull run is about to begin and then buy altcoins that begin to show positive signs, before they fully pump.

I think Harry Kane has changed his mind quite a lot of times to move to a different club, but it wasn't to be because negotiating with Daniel Levy is so difficult, he places outrageous prices on players he does not want to sell and frustrates the interested club until they stop the pursuit. Two summer's back City were seriously interested in Harry Kane, but Daniel Levy blocked the move from happening. Spurs aren't going to be playing in the CL next season, thus i think the time is finally right for Kane to leave, but i think he'll want to move to an EPL team because he is chasing the all time EPL highest goal scorer record held by Alan Shearer, and if he finishes his career in England, he might actually break it.

I no see translation posts as a way of contributing to something beautiful oh, as i don talk before, if to say our board get distinct language and many new users no too understand English but na that distinct language wey dem sabi read, speak and also write, then translating important topics from English to that distinct language go help people for the local board wella, but as our own dey wey everybody sabi read English, them fit just go read the original topic na, i dey sure say nobody dey read this pidgin translation topics because them go find the original English posts easier to read and understand.

Having said that, if person wan contribute to something beautiful for this our local board, then make them start their own quality threads for the board, no be all these duplicate and spam posts wey full for our local board so. But i know say we just start sha, our local board just start, in the future we go get more quality threads than spam and duplicate threads.

Cristian Stellini is no longer the head coach of Spurs, he was sacked after the embarrassing defeat to Newcastle, their new manager is Ryan Mayson. Richarlison is not a good player and his stats says it all, just one goal in the EPL all season (which came yesterday), i know he has had a couple of injuries, but the Brazillian hasn't impressed at all since joining Spurs. A player is said to be productive when they score goals and make assists, Richarlison does none of these when he is either brought on or when he starts, he is anything but productive, i'd be surprised if he is still at Spurs next season.

The first leg of this tie is in Santiago Bernabeu, whilst the second leg is at the Etihad. I don't think there is any comparison between the Liverpool v Real Madrid game in the RO16 this season with this SF game against City. Liverpool are a complete shadow of themselves this season, but City are as good as they have always been, challenging for three trophies this time around, on the summit of the EPL table, into the FA Cup final and in the SF of the CL, thus they are a world apart from Liverpool.

Having said that, there's no team currently in world football that's capable of 'destroying' this Pep's Manchester City. This game is going to be pretty tight, but i am going with a City victory, and i even believe they have what it takes to beat Real Madrid home and away.

A user can store huge amounts of Bitcoin in their computer if it is a cold/air-gapped wallet, and you could even make it a multi-sig wallet for more security, and all of that is what @dzungmobile said, thus they are correct. If the wallet in the computer is a cold wallet, thus the device is air-gapped and it is not vulnerable to viruses/malwares.
Scammers are not inventing new tactics, these has been their modus operandi for quite a long time now; they just target avaricious and naive people.

1000 posts is not all that of a milestone to create a thread for, i think celebrations of this sort should be reserved for actual milestones, if users begin to create threads for what they subjectively think is a milestone, it could really get messy out here.

Whilst their Bitcoin is stored in the Blockchain network, their seed phrase and keys to spend it is not, it has to be stored by them, and these are some of the basic things that a Bitcoin user should know, failure to know these and things go awry, definitely it is on them, and not because they find research hard to do.
Nobody has to discuss it with you personally, most of us in Bitcointalk joined the forum because we were curious about Bitcoin, if someone wants to know more about Bitcoin before using it, they'll find their way into this forum and get some of the best knowledge. Mind you that this issue of research isn't only peculiar to Bitcoin, it is a rule of thumb that one should research before using something, you cannot be ill and just take any drug because no one has previously personally talked to you about your symptoms, you obviously go to a doctor who has done all the research about it in school.

I'm afraid that as much as you think politicians use Bitcoin to perpetrate their fraud, they do not. Bitcoin uses a public ledger that can be seen by everyone and possibly traced, and they (politicians) also steal quite a lot of money, running into millions/billions which would definitely be difficult for them to convert when they need to (if it's held in Bitcoins). Thus they stick to their old ways of money laundering, which is to use fiat/cash, they can always hide as much cash in their well secured homes, or pull some strings with their local banks or even international banks, who'll be more than ready to accept the money without asking questions, afterall they need it to also fund their own personal trade.

Bitcointalk is a forum for discussing about Bitcoin and other whatnots, it is neither a trading or a speculating platform, but if a users need such information they should visit the trading discussion and speculation section.
Users know what their interests are already, they should visit the sections that interests them, they don't need any AI for that reason.
Whilst i don't know how the AI is going to do this, it is still a no. Come to think of it, all of the AI generated posts users have been posting on the forum are all spam, thus i think the forum would go downhill if AI helps us in detecting spam.

I beg to differ, i don't think the forum would be better without signature campaigns, let us be honest, the forum activity is going to drop quite significantly if that happens, thus who is going to share knowledge on the forum or answer important questions of newbies about Bitcoin. Signature campaigns and the merit system are two things that have helped this forum greatly to maintain its high standards, to join signature campaigns you must earn merits, and to earn merits you must make HQ posts. Mind you that there are spammers on every platform, and even if there's no signature campaigns here there'd still be spammers, thus if you think spam posts are a problem in the forum, use the "report to moderator" button more frequently.

Well, i don't think Real Madrid are going to control the game against Manchester City, in last season's SF when the both sides squared off, City controlled the game for the both legs, and still did not win. I don't think any football side can control the game against Manchester City, you just have to come up with a different game plan, and last season Real Madrid chose to hit City on the counter attack, which they were successful at.

Having said that, i don't expect Real Madrid to seek complete dominance against City, they will be patient and wait for their time on the counter attack, but i think it is City that would progress to the final this time around, they definitely must have learnt their lessons from last season and i am pretty sure they'd not allow it to repeat again this time around.

I second this, the game is fairly even at 50-50 and i absolutely don't think there is any favorite in this game. AC Milan and Inter Milan are quite erratic and unpredictable this season, they could lose when you expect them to win easily, and win when you think they are definitely going to lose, it has been an up and down season for the both clubs, and they are really fortunate and lucky to be in the SF of the CL. This match is going to be decided by fine margins, i prolly even think it will go into extra time, that's how close i think it'd be, but if i must pick a side, i'd say AC Milan would progress to the final, just because i think they have a game changer in Rafel Leao and a great goalscorer in Olivier Giroud, they would both help AC Milan to just edge Inter Milan.
