I have been watching Everton vs Chelsea and it has been a tough game I must confess. But I didn't like the fact that Chelsea is still leading in this match. It is not like Chelsea deserves the leading, they are not playing anything more than Everton. It will be a fair game if this will end in draws.

Yesterday also, Arsenal did not deserve the 2 goals win. But in all, it is clear that top 4 and top 6 clubs might find it difficult to enter top 4 this season. Men are playing good football this season. I am patiently waiting for Manchester United and see what will happen.
1642  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 44 countries will meet in El Salvador to discuss Bitcoin on: August 06, 2022, 05:43:10 PM
Before now I was seeing El Salvador president as an ordinary bitcoin enthusiasts who out of his love for bitcoin made his country to accept bitcoin as legal tender. But when he began to buy deep even when he previously bought high and being criticised by many people I began to understand he is more than an ordinary bitcoin man.
Inviting upto 44 countries to his country for bitcoin conference is making me think that he is my elder brother (Satoshi) Grin. This is a good development.

I saw my country in the list - Nigeria and I am happy, but it seems that it is mostly Africa countries or under developed countries that are on the list.
1643  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How do you introduce Bitcoin to people without digital literacy? on: August 06, 2022, 05:31:35 PM
When I am faced with the challenge of introducing someone to Bitcoin, I always ensure that first I try to understand the reason the person wants to be introduced to Bitcoin at that time.
  • If the person have seen my success or success of someone who is into Bitcoin, and becomes interested in Bitcoin, I will know that the person have the get rich quick scheme mindset. I will first try to re-orient the person before discussing bitcoin with the person. And I will not go deep into the technicals because the person might not last long or even understand.
  • If the person is doing well already and wants to be introduced to Bitcoin, I will know that the person wants where to invest his more, then I will teach the person the basics and technicals of bitcoin

Discussion: EFCC massive arrest ongoing in Port Harcourt, what's your take on this and any solution to stop this abuse?

So if u never hear, for the past 4-5 weeks PH dey on fire oh massive arrest of young guys between 16 to 30 yrs dey ongoing and no how you go tell me say all of them dey guilty, personally self I fit count how many nights I dun sleep for my house since July. No be say I dey guilty but if them get information come your house see you and you be young guy with expensive lifestyle na money matta before you come out even though you no dey guilty and I dey avoid careless expenses this days. I understand say na Intel dem dey carry move and we know how this business be, e require you to spend enough time for house as na your hustle be this and people wey no understand go think say you dey press since you no dey comot house go work and you dey very alright I come be young guy too (double wahala) 😂😂😂

Besides yahoo boys dun spoil the whole coverage of been a crypto trader/investors as na wetin dem dey talk before dem catch them so now dem believe you're guilty even though you talk say na crypto you dey into. My concern now he say, how this country go move forward from this phrase, we need another endsar kind of protest, wetin we fit do to stop this abusive massive arrest. EFCC no fit do their findings before they come pick somebody instead of to disgrace person finish, spoil image for area and e come be say him innocent. What's the way forward, no be so e dey for outside, why our own dey always different. Worst part dem go spoil your property on the purpose..

Senior man, na correct matter wey you carry come like this. Everything wey you talk here na my fear, and e be like say my fear don dey happen. I no know say the EFCC matter don dey rampant for PH.
One day I dry ask myself say what of it those men confront me one day? If you check well, our activities here dey similar to wetin people wey dey press dey do. Wallets full our phones, Vpn dey phone join. Infact I don uninstall all my vpn.

As the matter dey go, I get two advice.
  • Make we no get fear for body when we sure say we dey innocent
  • Make we limit how we make new friends and associate with people, sometimes na our friends dey give Efcc people information, especially when dem don dey envy you. After dem extort you, dem get cut for the money

The country no too sweet again, make we just dey manage am.

Arsenal have started the match very strongly just as I expected. They are still in the lead by 1-0 and Crystal Palace have even only one shot attempt. Zinchenko made an assist by the way which is really nice to see. He is an offensive back as you know so it is good for him to adapt to the team very quickly. I don't expect Arsenal to make a mistake from now on and they should be able to win this by a bigger goal difference as well.

Arsenal has started the season in a grand style and it is going well with them so far. At 20 minutes, Martinelli was lucky to be the first goal scorer of the 2022/2023 season as assisted by Zinchenko. Though Arsenal is topping in goal and all other statistics, but the game is not over yet. Crystal Palace might find their way in the second half to off set the goal. I am very happy that football is back and this happens to be the first match I have watched this  season.

At the moment, the presentation of Robert Lewandowski is taking place in Barcelona, and tonight we will see how Bayern Munich will do without this player. The duel between the German champion and the winner of the Europa League promises to be very interesting. Eintracht Frankfurt is quite an unpredictable team, but I bet on the victory of the Bavarians.

The matchs has just started, despite playing without Robert Lewandowski but Bayern Munich playing with Premier League star Sadio Mane. Munich is the favorite to win this match, as seen from the first five minutes Joshua Kimmich managed to find the net against Eintracht Frankfurt.

This match will be very interesting because Eintracht Frankfurt play with a 3-4-2-1 formation which will play with an attacking strategy but conceded in the early minutes of the match.
I was thinking that this match would be a tough one. I was considering it to be a match between champions. That is Bundesliga champions and Europa League champions. But as it stands now, I am disappointed that Frankfurt which used to be a defensive minded club conceded in 5mins into the march and it was not long, they conceded again by 11 mins. Frankfurt is making us believe so early that there won't be competition for Bayern in Bundesliga this season.

1648  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: August 04, 2022, 11:21:22 PM
Chelsea offered triple deal for Barcelona stars Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Frenkie de Jong and Memphis Depay. The odds that Frankie joins Chelsea is very low, considering the salary he's on (450k). He'll have to accept half of that salary if he wants to join Chelsea. Already he's not that keen on leaving and that doesnt sound very motivating for him to leave. Would most likely be Depay making his way to Samford Bridge.
Does Chelsea want to sign all Barcelona players you stated above?  Huh
IMO, Chelsea won't have a chance to sign both Aubameyang and Frenkie de Jong. Xavi must be satisfied with Aubameyang's performance last season, it is stupid to lose this player from Barcelona squad. Moreover, Depay and Braithwaite seem to leave Barcelona as soon as possible, so Barcelona will have 2 CF only. While for Frenkie De Jong, he seems to stay because Barcelona president has stated that they want Frenkie to stay. Chelsea only has a chance to sign Depay, he is expected to leave Barcelona since the arrival of Lewandowski. Depay must have a better chance to play in Chelsea than staying in Barcelona.


I don't know how Barcelona pay their players do high. Clubs are coming for Depay but I don't think he is willing to go. I prefer to maintain his salary for the next season even if he doesn't see good playing time. To me if I were to be a coach I can never choose Aubameyang over Depay, especially when I have Lewandowski. Though coaches know what they see, but when Barcelona was down, it was Memphis that was scoring for the club and always playing with high energy. I don't know why Xavi chooses to relegate him.
1649  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: August 04, 2022, 10:22:12 PM
I honestly think that they dont stand a chance against Liverpool. They have a solid team this season and they will fight really hard not to get relegated and survive in the premier league. They got Mitrovic that is an excellent striker but they still need a lot of new signings

No one should underrate the capability of Fulham United in the EPL this season because the Fulham team is going to be like Burnley United of the past three seasons ago. I see Fulham United winning or getting a draw against the Liverpool side who is having a little trouble in the defense line and I believe Fulham United will be glad to defeat Liverpool and record their first victory in front of their fans who is happy to see them back in the EPL after a very long time.


The possibility of Fulham United staying in the EPL or being relegated again lies in their performance and I believe they will sign more players to the team to enable them to fight and take their place.
There is absolutely no how Fulham United would be relegated this season. Remember they are champions and they have tasted the hardship of championship and wouldn't like to go back there so soon. Fulham is going to prove many clubs wrong this season in Epl, expect it and especially anyway they are playing against Manchester City. It always look like super Cup. Epl winners vs championship winners, you would be surprised at the result of that day.
Meanwhile for the first match, Liverpool cannot go home with anything less than 3 points .

Not all early adopters are rich. Some did not take bitcoin seriously. Some did not buy bitcoin at all. Some bought and sold off all. Some used theirs to play of poll. Some used theirs for ponzi scheme and lost all. Some cannot recover their own as they bought and forgot about it. Only some serious and enlightened ones wet able to buy, save and make big profits.

Can you develop a centralised exchange on an open source code? I am not a pro, asking to know.

Generally, I am always comfortable with a project when I know that it isn't controlled by an individual or a group of people. I feel safer when it's decentralized.

Barcelona's ambitions in the transfer market this season have not stopped, it is reported that they will bring Silva to Camp Nou.

I think they really need Bernardo Silva. He is a creative player who will enrich attacking organizations in the midfield. Bernardo Silva is a player who can feed players like Lewandowski with good passes. Also, his chances of playing for Manchester City are dwindling. I think he will respond positively to Barcelona's offer.
I don't understand why Barcelona is being so strong in the transfer market. They are known for hijacking  every target of Chelsea fc in the transfer market. They have signed good number of good players, they don't want to give up on players like De Jong. Some players are taking pay cut and yet Barcelona wants to sign futher good players like Silva. I am such surprised and happy for them. Club like Manchester united who has money and wants to be strong this season are not being serious. Let's see how the season will be.
1654  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: August 02, 2022, 09:35:08 PM

I expect competition between Haaland, Nunez and also Ronaldo if he wants to stay at Manchester United. These three players will be compared until the end of the season, but we don't know what they are capable of achieving. Hoping for the best, that's for sure.

Why bring Ronaldo in here. Please give some respect to the Legend. He deserves the respect and honour. For how long will you compare Ronaldo to the children you mentioned above. Ronaldo has been compared with Messi, Neymar, Salah, even Benzema and Lewandowski. The worse of it was comparing him with Lukaku early last season and you want to do same again this season?
I disagree with you, compare Haaland and Nunez with the likes of Kane and Gabriel Jesus and not Ronaldo.

The riddle about Cristiano Ronaldo I think is now in the final that he will stay at Manchester United. From Manchester United's official social media uploads, he seems to have rejoined the team. And that I think is enough to answer our curiosity about the very strong rumors about him. We will see him play for Manchester United next season.

Going back to training with the team doesn't have to mean Cristiano Ronaldo will stay at Manchester United. There can still be many negotiations behind the scenes. Of course, in my opinion, it would be best for him to stay there, but as always, the most important thing will be money, I mean whether he received any interesting offers.

Ronaldo didn't only return to training with Manchester United, he has also featured in Manchester United last pre season match in Spain with Roy Vallecano. Ronaldo was featured among young and second team players in the match. Which I believe that because he has been absent in other fixtures and majority of the players have passed their assessments test. Remaining Ronaldo and the new Eriksen and Martinez.
Suprsingly Ronaldo didn't get a goal in the first half, as soon as he was subbed for Diallo A who returned from loan, the young player got the first goal of the match. We are about 60mins into the match.
I will likely update what the full score will be like.

I have seen posts like this where people go back to their profile to delete or edit posts made during the early stage in the forum. Seeing that such posts are below standard or they are off topic and in the quest to sanitise their profile they delete them.
I am not a fan of that idea. I have never deleted or edit my pasts posts, I will only do that if I have promoted some scam projects unaware to me, when I become aware I can go delete them. But because of quality I won't delete or edit.
Those are my days of little beginning and low knowledge, they should serve as my personal achive where I can visit in 5 years time and have a sweet smile.
1658  Economy / Reputation / Re: Why was franky1 banned from Dev & Tech? on: July 31, 2022, 02:49:25 PM
I don't know if anyone would be interested to see this. I created this topic when I was new in this forum and was searching the whole boards and threads.

Franky1 is among my 3 heroes I found in this forum. But now I have a good number of them. See this thread.

I brought out 3 people who has almost the same posting style and are old in this forum. I call them unsung heroes because they are my heroes even if many people may not notice them
Disclaimer: Everything written here is my personal opinion. I may be wrong or I may be right. So it should not be used for any official purpose.

These 3 people are:

FRANKY1
Registration
Franky1 registered on this forum on 3rd September, 2012.
He does not wear signature of any company, still he contributes daily in the forum. If there is statistics, he should be one of the most active users. From 2012 till date, almost 10 years and he is not tired. I can call him a genuine lover of bitcointalk. I wonder where he draws his motivation.
Trust
As old as he is in the forum, he is not trusted by a single DT member, -3. But he has been tagged for spreading FUD and trolling by Achow101 (2019). He was also tagged by gmaxwell(2018) for dishonesty and anti-bitcoin shilling, could be the reason why he is banned from the technical board. This year BlackHatCoiner tagged him for spreading FUD about Lightening network and he eventually called for Franky1's ban https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5380036.msg58910999#msg58910999
His Strength
Meriting style
I don't know if he is a merit source. But he recieves merits frequently for his quality works. He does not issue merits always, but when he does, he will definitely change your merit history by issuing 50merits.
My personal opinion about Franky1
He is very intelligent. A verse thinker. I enjoy sleeping in his profile to learn but he is not aware of this. I wish he can reply and tell us his driving principles.

I sincerely do not think that Franky1 should be tagged because the allegations in the tag references do not carry much weight. Simply ignoring him, distrusting him or using a neutral tag would do well. But seeing the calibre of people that tagged him and considering that I was too young to say, I couldn't say.
1659  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: July 30, 2022, 07:35:52 PM
Next week the Bundesliga will start soon but Dortmund actually get bad news if their will  lose  the Haller for a long time, Haller who is projected to replace Haaland actually now has to undergo a recovery after the tumor surgery he did and automatically now Dortmund are in a confusion because they don't have a commensurate replacement for Haaland, although the transfer season is still quite long time but I think have to hurry for dortmund to find another striker who can indeed replace Haalaand position on the front lines, if not then I think they will fall quite far from munchen even from other teams next season .

Dortmund is known for grooming new players who will surely replace people leaving. When Aubameyang was leaving we thought there will be no replacement and before we know it someone better came which is Haaland. And this circle continues like that, so I believe the case of Haaland will not be different. Before the season will end, there will be good replacement for Haaland either from signing or from promotion of players. They will surely replace but they cannot contend with Bayern Munich in the league.
