Re: Is Bitcoin a safe haven???
In investment, is there any where called safe haven? If yes can you please show me. Where I will keep my money, it will not depreciating but keeps appreciating till infinity. I believe that should be the definition of a safe haven.
But if you cannot find anything as such, please buy bitcoin and stop looking for a safe haven in a volatile asset.

So, when buying bitcoin, since there is no ideal safe haven, invest the money that you do not need in the short time and your investment will appreciate in the long term.

Luna might have taken away all you ever worked for, be strong and keep moving for you are not alone, we all are in this together, let's draw strength from each other, strength to keep keeping on, this is a phase, and like every other phases, this too shall pass.
How can one possibly invest all they have worked for in a project like Luna, that is basically inviting trouble for yourself, to look at it from another angle, investing all you have into any project whatsoever is breaking the rule of thumb of not investing more that you can afford to lose, which is also another mistake for users who went contrary to that.
The Luna wave made me thinking how good was Luna before this predicament. Could Luna possibly be the then next to BTC?  There's no how someone will invest all his savings in a project like Luna.
Meanwhile a situation like this makes some people claim  victim of what didn't happen to them.
Well I see this is a bad period for everyone, if you are not caught in Luna, you will likely get caught in order coins
But it's better to get caught up in btc than to get caught up in altcoins.

Op I like your lines of advice and motivations

Wolves - Manchester City game is just unreal. Truthfully, I wasn't expecting such an easy victory for Manchester City. There are a few minutes left to the end and Manchester City are demolishing Wolves by 5-1. And this is definitely De Bruyne's day too. He has scored 4 goals until now and impressed everyone for certain. It is like he kept his real performance as a secret until this game.  Grin  Manchester City are surely the champions this year.
Wolves has nothing to lose if they lost the match, so I didn't expect them to do wonders or over perform. Manchester City is really having a very nice ride to clich the Premier League title. They will not make mistakes, but the only match that would have troubled them is Westham. This is because Westham wants to be in Europa League. But Westham would not be allowed to do the deeds because of it happens, Manchester United will go to conference League which is not good for sports business in England.

I think many Manchester City fans are behind Pep Guardiola no matter if they win the UEFA Champion's League or not. Pep is the only manager that is criticised for not winning the champion's league. Sir Alex Ferguson won 2 in 30 years, many didn't talk about him getting sacked. Well, these points are understandable accurate but Fergie didn't spent over half a billion pounds to recruit players.
Well, at the end of your post you also said the reason Sir Fagie cannot be compared to Guardiola. Guardiola has arguably the best squad and bench in football while Sir was using average players most times to perform wonders. Apart from the depth of players, Guardiola is known for making big mistakes at big stages. Last year champions league he lost it to Chelsea because he benched his top 9 and played formation that Tuchel and everyone knows. Formation that was faulted twice before finals, with a defensive midfielder.
Last week against RM, he could not defend a match he was wining and substituted Kelvin Debruyne in the match.

I still can't believe that Manchester City acted very quickly and signed Erling Haaland. And it is said that they signed him for only 60 million euros (not even as it was said like 75 million euros or so). And his yearly salary is also very cheap for Manchester City. This can be the best deal Manchester City would have got for him so I guess they are very happy now. This is a huge transfer and I hope this can bring them a Champions League title later too.
I am so surprised how the deal worked out. The agent didn't stress and the process was smooth and favourable to Manchester City. I don't know if clubs like Manchester United don't see this kind of deals. They only see overhyped defenders like Maguire and pay huge.

Now that City has got Haaland, I think it is time for them to release Jesus. Guadiola is not a coach that will keep two top strikers in a team because he likes playing false 9. He may need to allow Haaland to play some times before he will be sure to release Jesus.

Leeds - Chelsea game started quite fast and Chelsea found a very early goal too. Leeds are 1-0 behind and this is a really important game for them. They are competing with Everton to stay in the league. If they lose or even draw with Chelsea, then the gap with Everton would increase more most probably. Because Everton would definitely defeat Watford tonight. So Leeds had better somehow find a way to win this game.
Leeds are quite unlucky this night. Not only did they concieve early goal, they also lost one of their best players - James to red card. It is so unfortunate that they are heading to relegation. I know Leeds cannot equalise the match against Chelsea, though they are playing well even after the red card, but they are not club to come back from 1 goal even when they are one man down.  Let us see what the second half has for Leeds
1888  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: May 08, 2022, 11:50:27 AM
Today's fixtures in Epl are very interesting. Very much interesting pet day. Arsenal and Leeds is very interesting because Leeds are trying to run from relegation zone and Arsenal wants to solidify in top 4.
Another one is Liecester vs Everton. Everton is trying their best to run away from relegation while Liecester has nothing to loose.
Next is Westham vs Norwich. Norwich could wish to leave the bottom position if possible but it is not, then Westham wants to secure slots for Europa conference league.
The last fixture is Newcastle who wants to prove to players that they are now good to contend so that they can accept transfer offer vs Manchester City who is set to lift the epl title. Every single match today is interesting.

You've made quite a good number of points but one thing is certain, despite taking all this good measure in place,
A loosing trade will always be loosing trade irrespective of any measure taken to ensure you avoid loses.

  In addition to what you've said so far, it's nice to guide your funds using this guidelines so you don't incur loses more than you should loose.
"A loosing trade will always be loosing trade irrespective of any measures taken to endure you avoid loses." This statement is correct because all these measures is to mitigate loses and not to avoid loses totally.
I read where you said that when you applied all your strategies and tools and in the end the trade still fails, that you will happily walk away and know that you have done your own part but the market didn't agree.
Everyday is not a win day for even good and professional traders, there's always a bad day in the market.

Apart from bitcoin, every aspect of the economy is glamouring for renewable energy, so bitcoin should not be an exception. We have found ways to recycle the human waste, we re-use water and more. It is better to be renewable so as to preserve the nature.
My stand is that we should not always engage in the debate of renewable and non renewable energy usage, we should encourage miners to go green so that we could rest and the enemies of bitcoin will also rest.

I am sure Liverpool is going to finish this you d with the trophy 🏆 as the club facing them is less stronger and tactical to Liverpool real Madrid will not purse bigger threat like Manchester City hard it been their qualify, well let see what the outcome of the finals will be if real Madrid will still ride on luck to winning the championship or Liverpool will finally seal their winning we will know.
This season UEFA Champion's League finals will be a gladiator match. It is a difficult one to call since both teams have been top tier throughout the season. Although Real Madrid will be favored by many because of the caliber of teams they eliminated on their journey to the final. Liverpool will need to impose themselves on Real Madrid and control the game with purpose for 90 minutes. If they get distracted for a minute, they can be punished.
Did you even say that Real Madrid will control a match that Liverpool is playing?
They can't try that shit. We are going to witness a wonderful final. Mo Salah and some Liverpool players are coming for a revenge.
Now see what will happen. Real Madrid will have to put much effort in the first half. They need to understand that this is final and only one leg, there will be no room for a magical come back in second leg.
Then Liverpool need to understand that they are plying against experience and luck.
Those guys in white are experienced and lucky.
1894  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: May 06, 2022, 10:09:28 PM
I agree with you Manchester City is much stronger than these teams and we expect all of them to win the match easily. Manchester City will be champions this season as long as they don't make a silly mistake
It is a very small chance to see Man City to do a silly mistake. They just did a mistake in UCL, when they played against Real Madrid in the semi-final. After this match, all players and the coach, must evaluate their strategy in playing. They also must move their focus to EPL matches, so they must have a better preparation for the next matches.

Manchester City is a good and complete team. They don't also have any problem. They don't even need to evaluate any of their strategy. They are one of the best teams in the world. Even in their match against Real Madrid, they did not also make any mistakes. They played football and it didn't go well with them.
Real Madrid did a wonderful come back against Psg, does it mean that psg made a mistake?
They did an amazing come back against Chelsea,  does Chelsea also need to make a strategy evaluation because they lost?
Same thing happened to Manchester City and it can happen to any team. Real Madrid and Benzema are absolutely wonderful this year. That is just it.

Yes, I thought West Ham and Barcelona were going to be the finalists of this Europa league but I was proved wrong. I have to say these two teams played really well to reach the finals and  I am really shocked to see the way Frankfurt played because I don't remember watching this type of teamwork from them in their own respective League. I really think that Frankfurt is going to win the Europa League.
Tbh, Barcelona and Westham were the favourites to lift the Europa League. O wonder why things didn't work as it seemed. Barcelona came from Champions league with alot of energy while Westham in the other hand played unbeaten throughout their group stage. So, I was believing one of the will win the league.
While Barcelona failed to qualify, Westham was unlucky instead. No one gets early red card and is one goal down, comes back. So I don't actually blame them.
Bowen and Antonio tried their very best to play like more than one individual but it didn't work.
Frankfurt who eliminated Barcelona and did same to Westham, that means they will lift the trophy.

E depends on the kind personality you be shaa, but even of Satoshi appear here today I go still talk am for him face.
Make both crypto and naira co-exist,  na em be true definition of liberty. I no fit stand up say wetin one boy wey I no know where him from create come kill wetin the whole country get.

Baba this matter never reach quarrel na. E never reach to drag personality enter the matter o. We are only trying to talk wetin deh ground. No vex for me if to say my comment do you somehow for body. E get better thing weh you talk concerning say make both crypto and naira deh co-exist, na true be that and I no think anybody go say na lie. For crypto to survive for 9ja naira must stand side by side with am.
Senior man no issues, you never talk off record and I no dey vex, besides me dey hardly vex. Based on the personality mata, ah sorry if you no understand wetin I mean. You know say sometimes person fit not express himself complete for dis brokin we dey knack. Or I fit express well but the man for the other end no too catch am well.
Yea, I like as me and you don land for the same ground. Make naira and crypto co-exist and make Nigeria no rush make bitcoin legal tender. Our problem no be to make bitcoin legal tender. If our leaders fit free hands make we trade bitcoin with bank, p2p and anyhow we want, e dey ok for us.

If you check well, people wey dey do this legal tender something na small countries, one sef no get their own fiat. Make oyibo dey play their game. Anyday major European countries or USA make bitcoin legal tender, we as Africa giants we go follow.
But make you try teach your people about bitcoin and crypto because na clear future e be. Nobody know belle wey carry king. E fit later play out say na em go be the future financial system of the world. I no lie you, blockchain too strong.
1897  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Nigeria (Naija) on: May 06, 2022, 05:57:51 PM
No be so e go be if we understand crypto very well as against fiat. Nigeria case no follow for comparison because no be crypto deh crash naira. Na over dependence on importation deh weaken our naira. We always buy dollar or other foreign currencies to bring in goods here. Na the main thing weh deh cause our money to deh worthless.
If you read wetin I write carefully, you go understand say, I no talk say na crypto dey make Naira crash. Me I know why naira dey crash and your importation claim na one of them.

I understand wetin you put there and I used that opportunity to make that clarification clearer. Long talk no deh the matter unto that. But the main thing be say make we too no deh use our own hand deh spoil crypto like say na him deh cause 9ja problem for naira. Bad press follow for wetin deh spoil crypto and we no suppose deh help government condemn crypto when we know say na lie them deh talk.
E depend on how you dey see the matter shaa. I no condem crypto for anywhere. I talk say if Nigeria make Bitcoin legal tender today, e go help crash naira finish the one wey remain and I give you my reasons.
Before crypto come, naira don dey exist. Many of our parents wey be civil servants dey recieve salary for naira, many of our brothers wey dey Ariaria, Oshodi, Onitsha etc dey use naira do business, our daily livelihood depends on naira. If anything happen to naira e go affect everybody for the country.
So, make crypto dey him own wey, make our naira dey him own. If competition dey between crypto and naira, na me be the last person here wey go talk say make crypto win.
E depends on the kind personality you be shaa, but even of Satoshi appear here today I go still talk am for him face.
Make both crypto and naira co-exist,  na em be true definition of liberty. I no fit stand up say wetin one boy wey I no know where him from create come kill wetin the whole country get.

I was completely satisfied with the Real Madrid v Manchester City match. The last moments of the first ninety minutes were definitely insane! I was just waiting for the match to end by Manchester City's 1-0 victory but suddenly the way the match was going changed very sharply. I wonder whether they would do the same again if Rodrygo didn't enter the match. But we will never be able to figure that out.  Grin  And Benzema is such an amazing player that he was very helpful for advancing to final as well. He got one goal and one assist.
Real Madrid vs Manchester City both first leg and second leg was very amazing. No dull moment for the fans and the viewers.
Even upto 80 minutes of the game, I was hopeful that Real Madrid will make a come back. I was shouting from my TV as if Loti heard me and removed the two old men from the midfield. The game was already ending and they needed to risk it to remove midfield and introduce a younger attacker and as I was shouting, he did it immediately and I respected the coach. Instantly, everything changed and that was football for you.
Manchester City would have made more efforts but they were tired. Sterling would have come earlier like Grealish did.

There are two types of forum search. When I didn't notice I was using the normal forum search most times I won't get desired result. Not until I discovered forum search powered by Google. So, even if you are searching with Google and end your search with ".bitcointalk.org" extension, it will take you to the forum.

Instead of using forum search option I suggest you to check https://ninjastic.space/ as it offers way more options when looking for something specific.
I have never tried this before, can I use it to search for plagiarism?

Why would the guy who created it not make it in his own language?
Make what in his own language?
You mean to code bitcoin in a different new code or to name bitcoin according to a native language. But we know bitcoin is an international project, why try nationalise or tribalise it.

Satoshi is real, just that we don't know if Satoshi is he or she. Yet, we know Satoshi is not a woman. What he did is not what woman can do and his tone of communication in masculine.
What I need understand now is if Satoshi is an individual or a group of people.
