1001  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: People are giving too much importance to exchanges on: June 26, 2023, 07:19:58 PM
6 months ago, my savings went down because of the FTX debacle. I've never used FTX, I've never been a customer of this company, but my savings are in BTC, and because of that failure, BTC's value went down, and so went my savings.

Today, bis repetita. I've never used Binance. I've never been a customer of this company, but because the SEC sues Binance, BTC is down, and so are my savings, so I have a message to all bitcoiners out there.

Exchanges and BTC are 2 different things. One exchange going down doesn't mean BTC must follow.
Binance will disappear? I don't give a damn.

One thing about the Bitcoin market is that it always goes with the trend, which is why the price is always affected whenever there is bad news, just like you said about FTX. When you tell people that exchanges are not safe to keep your money on, people don't believe you. What happened with FTX should be a lesson to many.

People who do not learn will continue to deposit their money in exchanges because they believe it is safe and easy to transact with, which is why they constantly keep their money there.
1002  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Latest Statement from the Nigerian president. on: June 26, 2023, 02:51:34 PM
Have been trying to compare the administration of Buhari and that of Tinubu, I still have better faith in Tinubu's administration than that of Buhari that claims transparency but coming to power lacks the qualities and competency to rule, I noticed something that will happen in this administration is that most of the decisions that the president will make will not be in favor of the citizens but will be better for the country, no pain no gain and with time people will adjust, I remember some weeks ago he made a statement about whatever decision he makes he will not change it, and the most interesting part is the foreign investors it will improve the economy and also create job opportunities for youths, let wait and see what happens next. we all hope for a better Nigeria.

as I said before that Mbappe has a dream of getting the champions league title so he decided not to extend the contract and in this situation PSG will take advantage of the conditions of selling at a very high price. but unfortunately it looks like Real Madrid have plans to be able to take Mbappe but don't use too much money because they know that Mbappe wanted to join Real Madrid a long time ago.
and I will be more than happy if Mbappe can join Real Madrid because his career will be better if he can qualify for the champions league.

And I don't blame the young player for his dream of winning the champions league the last time Madrid wanted to go to Real Madrid but PSG increase his pay and he later changed his mind, I think the young man now wants to chase his dream, and since he has a lot of potential in him I feel he will do better in real Madrid, and him not extending his contract has an advantage to the club, since football don't just involve games alone but also involves business for clubs to make money out of there players, among my favorite young players Mbappe is already part of it and I feel everyone will be happy if he joins Real Madrid since they have not finalized let us see what the outcome will be, but am sure he go from his actions I feel his mind his already made up to leave.

Worrying too much about a problem will make your decisions more chaotic and complicated. So don't put too much importance on waiting for a good price because not everyone is lucky enough to wait and buy at a good price. With your income, you just need to properly allocate investments compared to the price you paid at that time. In addition, you should also need a data sheet for items when investing and have a little more knowledge related to this field. In case the market is not good, you should still have a backup plan. According to the majority of people, DCA is still the most optimal method for investments today.

That genuine concern you felt Making decisions is never easy, but occasionally I look up to cryptocurrency investors so that I can learn from their experience. Learning from others is always beneficial, especially in the world of cryptocurrencies. One thing I've noticed is that it's always wise to take advantage of the market. If the price is low, you should take advantage by buying more. This strategy will help you expand your portfolio. And that's how the vast majority of system users are becoming extremely wealthy. Buying high does not favor an investor at all, but everyone has their own option to make if you have the money to buy even when it is high or low then it is yours to choose. Doing things on your own is not advantageous at all if you want to succeed.

For the next season of the Champions League, they are two teams they got obviously more chances than other teams.
And if I may ask which clubs you have in mind, to be the winners of the champions league, I feel it will be too difficult for anyone to predict what's going to happen next season, I see that most people want to be judging last season performance to that of next season which I feel is impossible, am sure a lot of surprises will come from different clubs, next season and even the champions will come as a surprise, even inter milan making it to the final I was surprised and Real Madrid did not make it, even after playing well against manchester city in the first leg, and were wonderfully defeated by manchester city in the second leg. I don't see City having the opportunity next season.

Quote
Real Madrid, if they keep Ancelotti or find a better coach because they got a good player to improve their team.
Manchester City, they got all they need because Guardiola is trying to keep the players they need for the next season and hire players also he is a coach he knows to win the champions league.


Ancelotti has been one of the best developers in real Madrid and his presence in real Madrid has also earned him some merit, I feel he should stay and even manchester city does not have all they need just that they are experienced and they know how to take advantage of any circumstance, and the man behind it is Guardiola the mastermind behind every strategy, and I don't think manchester city will be winning the champions league again next season.
1006  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you think it's still wrong selling properties for Bitcoin? on: June 25, 2023, 05:22:46 PM
I can not sell my land or property to buy bitcoin. It will make me look like I am risking too much and which could affect me. My property remain my property and the land will continue to increase in value too. This is what I will think and I will not sell my land. Sometimes it is not about the profit, but diversification.

It should be a matter of choice if you feel like buying land, go for the land, and if you feel like buying bitcoin, go for bitcoin. Both bitcoin and landed property are not bad investments for the future, and I know people who make good money selling both lands and bitcoin. Therefore, choosing your land is a wise decision on your part, bro.


I respect your opinion of not selling your land to buy Bitcoin. But this is different is OP has an abundance of land from what he said. It was a good form for him to sell a portion of his land to invest in Bitcoin. Things could go south we know but isn't that what an investment is? He invested what he can afford to lose.
You talked about diversification. Selling a part of his land to invest in something is diversification. Now he has assets in land and Bitcoin.

It's always bad to put all of your eggs in one basket, you, that's one thing I learned from elon, exploring into different things like batteries to cars and now space x and elon is trying to build a hotel in space, op has its target already, also is going to benefit from both of its investment, and in my own opinion, I love physical stuff, op is also smart enough to have both Bitcoin and landed property that's how business-minded people behave.

Hello friends i invest my last money 2000$ in crypto but get scam by some website cant withdraw money it say error.
Can someone help me to recovery or with donation i dont have more money i need money back.

Thanks

Any were there is money scam is always not very far away a  lot of people have been scammed especially in the crypto ecosystem, especially about platforms that will tell you to invest a certain amount of money to get a greater return is a scam and called ponxy scheme, And that particular scam, which many people fall for, uses either pretexts that they are undergoing maintenance before you realize the site is inaccessible, or it uses other deceptive tactics. Before investing on any platform, perform thorough research before depositing if you're still unsure about if you'll be able to get your money back if it's a fraud. I wish people will stop reading about money doublers.

In Chelsea, Azpilicueta will be sorely missed. As the team's captain, he gave Chelsea everything he had. His outstanding 12-year Chelsea defender career left a lasting impression on the defense. Azpilicueta made the decision to leave Chelsea for a Seria A club, and I believe he has good reasons for doing so given that the majority of the former teammates he joined Chelsea with have already left the club (99% have left, and the final 1% are departing during this transfer window).
I'm wishing Azpi the best in his football remaining career in Seria A because soon he'll be retiring from football


Azpilicueta has given Chelsea his all as a defender and captain, and the decision to leave Chelsea is only known to him because age is already knocking at his door. I believe that playing in Saudi Arabia would have benefited him more than playing for a Serie A club, because people don't pay as much attention to Serie A as they do to the Premier League, Champions League, and La Liga. compare to Premier League, champions league and la Liga, also whish him the best in seria A. Personally I don't remembered the last time I watched  Serie A.


His moves to the intermilan is shocking news to me. I thought that he will stay in chelsea even longer but he is not. It seems like that the azpi is seeking for another challenge by moving to the intermilan. I can only he will be lucky enough in intermilan.
He has become one of legend that has owned by chelsea for more than 1 decade. The time for him to get a new challenge is almost coming.

I wish azpi will be lucky enough to play in the new club next season.

I'm also surprised that he's going to Inter Milan, which isn't a bad idea at all. I was impressed with Inter Milan's performance this season, even in the Champions League, but I felt they had a chance to win against Manchester City, and Lukaku kept missing fine chances to score. I believe the player is looking for a change of scenery to see if it will improve his performance, and I like the idea but not completely, unlike some players who will go straight for the money . After a few games, we can assess his progress.
1009  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: President Tinubu, shakes the entire security sector. on: June 24, 2023, 09:59:15 PM
President Bola Tinubu shakes the entire security sector, as he retires all service chiefs.

Omo presido, don ask for immediate replacement of this security chiefs, BABA just dey touch all the sectors way dey important small small, him don first remove CBN GOVERNOR, EFCC BOSS, now na all the security chiefs.
My people, how Una see dis matter.

https://twitter.com/NTANewsNow/status/1670862583530651663?t=vsT64l_jkDh-v8cR194MlQ&s=19

That is what is expected of every leader. Identification needs to be taken into account, know where the problem is coming from so that a solution can be given. For instance, when you are ill, the doctor knows which specific medication to administer. Tinubu has discovered the source of the problem and that they are incompetent in their roles. The chief of staff is one of the most dishonest individuals in the office at the moment they constantly find a way to steal money via security. There isn't a set budget for security, and when it comes to banditry, the chefs are aware, therefore I believe that politics is at play here as well as another way for them to make money. I was very happy with Mr presidents action.

Looks like there were a lot of players on sale at Chelsea at least this is what I saw in the news,sport news tonight while scrolling TV channels,I don't know how true that maybe but if this is the case it means Pochettino has already a very clear idea as to what players he want to have at his disposal when the new season will start not that long from now as less than 2 months and we will be seeing again Premier League action.

I think it is a right move to sell some players as Chelsea bought a lot of them last season and did not get the desired results from many of these players and this must be the reason that also Pochettino is not that happy about the performance of the team,I am assuming he want to be at least in Champions League spots this season Pochettino and to do somewhat better than he has done with Tottenham in International competitions.

That will be the best choice for Chelsea to make at that point they gathered players and the majority of them were not performing well, and I believe for a while now Chelsea has not been performing well. Pochettino will do better even with Potter and Lampard since the new season will start very soon, and since some unexpected clubs performed better than Chelsea this season, I'm confident he will choose the best option now that he has started selling players. and what is the point of keeping players that are not significant the best thing is to sell them.

As a morally upright person that does not like to cheat people, but gambles and has lost a lot of money to gambling in a casino where you have sometimes been cheated even without your knowledge or betting on sports, will you take an opportunity you get and go against your moral standards to cheat a casino or sportsbetting place, just so you can win big at least even once.

Will you try a trick to win on casino game machines if you were told and it is a 100% working trick to cash out? Will you bet on fixed games if you get the tip early?

I don't believe there is any way to cheat at any slot machine or casino. I'm also trying to understand what you mean by cheating at a casino or on gambling websites. What I do know is that you choose your games and the numbers and categories according to your preferences. If you're talking about cheating, however, there may be something else I don't understand. If that's the case, the only people who should be discussed are the greedy individuals who constantly want to become wealthy overnight. Naturally, cheating is undesirable.

But what makes Haaland always able to score goals is that he is good at opening gaps for opponents and placing himself in positions that are indeed very easy for his colleagues to pass the ball or provide Assists to Haaland. at least that's what happened from the start of last season to midway through. but from the middle of the season to the end of the season we could see Haaland struggling to create chances for himself. because he continues to be closely guarded by every opponent who faces Manchester City. But luckily Manchester City have another great striker who can replace Haaland in scoring lots of goals.

When the Premier League first began, Haaland drew a lot of attention, scoring good goals and providing nice assists, and the other opponents saw Haaland as a big threat and tried everything they could to contain him, forgetting that there are other magnificent players like De Bruyne and Bernardo Silva, and one thing I always admire about Manchester City is that all of their players are capable of scoring goals.

Yes, he’s quite good at opening up and placing himself in really nice positions that are really easy for his teammates to locate and let him have the ball to do what he’s good at which is scoring goals. And Manchester City, luckily for them doesn’t rely on him nor any single player to score goals or they would have been in a fix.
I think he’s better at opening up for passes or assists than trying to create opportunities for himself but luckily for him, he has good teammates capable of creating opportunities and scoring goals as well with and without his presence on the field.


Haaland is a fantastic player, but he can also be prone to looking for scoring opportunities on his own. Now that he is aware that his position is always guided up, he uses this knowledge to open up more opportunities for his teammates. Relying on him to score puts the team's performance at risk because he will be the only focal point. This is one quality that I continue to admire about Guardiola: all of his players are proficient goal scorers.

Great midfielder, the numbers and creativity on the pitch would speak for him, disciplined player, technically, smart and a modern player all of the top sides would want to join em if not for his age.
Money is not everything for every player, infact Barcelona deserves such a player and Gundogan also deserves representing Barcelona.

Every team will be interested in a player who possesses many talents and is capable of performing effectively in a variety of positions, according to Gundogan. I was surprised to see the player put his career before of money and sign with Barcelona. With his potential, I believe he will perform better there, and once Manchester City has won the Champions League, it will be time for him to transfer his experience to another team. And one thing I appreciate about Manchester City is how they develop talented players.


Quote
Xavi still needs a replacement for Sergio Busquet, he's not recruited a player for that position and also Gundogan won't be a great fit for that position if he was bought to replace Busquet. The name Joshua Kimmich have been mentioned severally, but the player have no plans and intentions to move to Barcelona.

xavi will be searching already for a player to fit in Sergio Busquet, since he is a defender I think xavi will need a strong player and aside been strong I think speed to matter a lots, I interesting part about football is that, every position is not as easy as you think ,  every position has there own work load. It is for this reason that occasionally I find it amusing how fans always complaining about a particular play has if its easy.

1015  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why People Still Gamble? on: June 22, 2023, 01:42:46 PM
The only reason people gamble is deep in our human roots and that is greed,as the prophets of all religions have said if you are happy with what you have you would be the happiest person on earth,most of us are not happy with what we have and we see gambling as a fast track alternative to get that huge win which sometimes in some locations in the world can be a life changing event.We are unaware though and do not think that by gambling 0.01% of people win and the rest lose their money and no one thinks of it before gambling otherwise they would not gamble at all.

I think everybody has their own definition when it comes to gambling, there are people that see it as a bad habit, some see it as income and make good money from it and people that play for fun, and finally, people that play and see it has an opportunity to get lucky and become a millionaire and that is the aspect I categorize the greedy once that play with small money and plenty odd, and its all lack of contentment, the numbers of winning are always very few since the majority are all on a track of being greedy, and the biggest problem is when you get seriously addicted to it then you are on another part of destruction since everyone can make their decision the choice is theirs.

I remember my mother's message that if you want to do something, never rush because it won't be good in the end, therefore every time I gamble I don't really want to rush into playing, enjoying the game is something I have fun because my goal is to gamble only just to look for fun and have fun not to multiply money also make money in gambling.

Lack of patience has drowned so many and I believe that is one of the best pieces of advice not to rush anything in life, our personality is similar to playing gambling for fun, because sometimes I feel like once money is involved people go crazy, if you look where some people place bets you will actually see how people are greedy and desperate for money, want to use a small amount of money to win millions with very large odds, which is nothing but pure greed.


Quote
Gambling with a hasty attitude will allow us to lose more opportunities as well as money on the gambling platform, that's why I always advise anyone not to be in a rush in doing anything including gambling, because gambling requires money for betting so make sure to play to enjoy the game because in a hurry you won't be able to enjoy the game too, especially if you lose quickly.

Gambling without patience is what the majority does, and that is why they keep losing bets. They omit so many principles, even gambling has a principle, I know of few people who draft out games and analyze the way some clubs are playing before they place a bet, not just selecting games and placing a bet without any consideration. 
1017  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: This increment of Fuel price in Nigeria on: June 21, 2023, 09:06:51 PM
I'm actually disappointed that a whole country like Nigeria doesn't have a price control, imagine our Baba presido just announced suspension of fuel subsidy and the next day all the fuel station done high there prices, I wonder how long is going to take for it to come back to it normal state. Imagine were you normally pay a certain amount and now because of the fuel price you have to pay x times two, to even make the matter worst, some fuel station are not selling for now based on the fact that they had information that fuel will increase more soon so they prefer to  reserve and sell high.


I don't really no what is wrong with this country almost all the sector are corrupt, no more human rights, police are doing the work of road safety, people are more afraid of police than any other thing on the road because they will always find a fault to extot from you, I don't really no why is like that.

The government does not even care how the less privilege are managing to survive, well one thing I love about most Nigerians is that regardless of how difficult it is to survive in this country people always device means to survive.



Please let's share knowledge because I believe one of us in any way has been harase by a police officer, and also what do u really think about the fuel issue? Would the price come down or increase the more?

The problem now is that the price of fuel always has an impact on everything. One thing I noticed, especially in this country, is that many people are opportunist and constantly seek out ways to exploit people. When the president mentioned it, the price had already started to shoot up, to the point where some filling stations were selling for 600 naira. The government always assumes that people will adjust, and that is what is currently happening. I notice that many people no longer drive their cars anymore instead, they take public transportation, even to get to work. Therefore, I don't believe that the price will decrease. Lets hope for implementations that will make people relax and not feel the impact.

Greetings my fellow Naija people.

I don't know why some people are still falling into the traps of those people that will call you for phone or meet you one on one and introduce fake decentralized investment, that if you invest #100,000 you will get #200,000 within a week. Someone came to share with me that there is a BTC investment one of his neighbors introduced to him, that when he invest on it through him , my friend will get double profit from it but the minimum anyone can start with is #500,000 above, that the numbers of people they want in that BTC investment is almost complete, that he came to seek advice from me if such decentralized investment is real. But I told my friend to run alway from them, that those guys are scammers and they don't have any knowledge about BTC investment. Did I give him a good advice ? What is your advice to such person.

One thing about scammers is that they always try to find ways to get you to invest, and some people who want to make money quickly will fall victim. I remember what happened with mmm many people were paying the debt until today, and all of it was due to greed and nothing else people are becoming wiser now. I receive a lot of notifications on Telegram about Bitcoin investments, and they often start showing screenshots of how they have benefited from the investments, all na scam.

contrary to this, it is unlikely that sevilla can afford any major signings with the clubs financial standing and yes, getting champions league football does not change that position. it is left to see if sevilla are able to get quality loan signings, else they would struggle with relegation like the just concluded season
It's difficult to fight in the Champions League when a team doesn't have high-quality players, but in the season that just finished Sevilla were still able to stay in the middle area of the final standings and it's not that close to relegation. But for next season Sevilla will have to fight even harder because they are already in a tougher competition apart from La Liga, because the Champions League is a league for the best teams from several domestic leagues.

Having good players and good positioning, and the players doing well in their positions, especially the midfielders, as you noted, are some of the fundamental principles that Guardiola employs. Additionally, based on what the other user said, Sevilla seriously needs to improve its financial situation before the clubs suffer more harm than they already have—they even struggled to earn 49 points—before the clubs become more damaged than before. I hope they invest in new strategies and more players. since other clubs are busy working to improve the performance of their clubs.
1020  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who is to be blamed, the gambler or the betting agent on: June 21, 2023, 09:50:28 AM
A situation occurred today in my locality,  I have some guys working for me today and suddenly I hard them battling with an issues and when I get close to them to know what exactly the problem is,  and I asked the guy who look strange to me since I am meeting him for the first time and not a worker on the site what his business and why he is distracting the workers from work.

Then the guy narrated his case to be and he said,  that one of the workers came to his betting shop the yesterday to play some visual,  that at first the guy came with ₦‎1,000 in my local currency to make the bets and along the line, he existed the balance but as a regular customer,  the agent decided to allow him at further on credits and in all he accumulated a total debt of ₦‎8,000 because he lost all the bets and since that yesterday he has been on the run from the gambling agent until he traced him to the site today.

This is not the first time I've seen something like this, and it's always worse than this one. I wonder how some people think you're busy calculating the money you don't have and they keep playing games with the mindset that they are going to win, if not for that, I wonder why you will play bet for dept up to 8000 nairas, and the agent was always trying to take advantage to grow his business, and since all games played end up in lost, so both of them were at disadvantage. it's always hilarious.

Quote
So when I wanted to judge the case and possible settlement,  I query the casino agent how can you allow a customer to gamble on credit to the tune of 8k Knowing fully well that the gambler only has a 1k balance which already existed?

Also what is the probability that the gambler will ever return after owning such debt in the betting shops,  note the gambler's daily pay is 2k as a helper on the site,  so he has to work for 4 days to be able to meet that debt that is if he doesn't make any other expenses.

Question is:

What is the possibility of the betting agent getting his money soon/considering the gambler's low-income earnings?

like the query you made was the best, and I hope the agent will accept responsibility and cease letting clients play on the dept. However, both the player and the agent have learned their lesson, imaging working on site and still playing the game for dept, I wonder what kind of mindset this niggas have. I also wonder if the agent will be entitled to his money back, am sure his not getting it back.
