1  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: Today at 09:40:11 PM
Luton really really needs a win here, like big time. They are not financially a strong team, and to be perfectly honest I have zero idea how they managed to be good enough to come here, but they are not a big populated area, so it won't be easy for them to come back to here at premier league, they need to stay as long as possible, in order to get enough money from everything, to be able to get better.

If they go down, then I am not sure how they could come back because even the first one was a shocker to begin with. They need the win, and stay, so that they could get a lot of money and be better next season, because with that kind of money rewarded if they stay, they may end up getting better defense and do better next season, or at least they could hope they would.
It is not quite a good thing that all day three clubs that can from championship are going to be relegated this season. I had expected one of them to at least stay back and currently the one that has the ability to stay back and the English Premier League is Luton. This is second half of the match and they are battling with Everton. They are currently sharing the points but if Luton could possibly get all the three points they will be temporary of the relegation zone pending the next match of Nothingham forest. At this crucial moment, it is very difficult to win matches. So, if Luton can't win tonight, they should atleast not lose.

Well at the moment they have as much as Nottingham, but the latter still have a game in hand, and moreover Luton are losing on goal difference, in case of equal points they will still be relegated. I think they have little chance of surviving in the EPL overall. But if they do, I think they will be clearly stronger next season. It's their first season in this division, they needed an adjustment anyway and if they hold on they will only be stronger next season
Actually base on their remaining fixtures
Luton: West Ham and Fulham
Nottm Forest: Sheffield United, Chelsea and Burnley

I think if Luton really want to avoid relegation then they have to fight pretty hard to defeat their remaining opponents though this will be hard but I think they may be able to do so base on how they fair in some matches this season while Nottm Forest may likely against Chelsea but the remaining may not be much issue for them but there are chances they may also drop points there

I believe in PSG. Bigly. We've seen them pull off miracles, like that comeback against Barcelona - fantastic game. But Dortmund is a tough opponent. We cant bank on another red card to turn things around. Now, playing at home, thats a HUGE match. And Enrique, the guy's a tactical genius. He'll have the plan. Thing is, those chances we create? We gotta start burying them. No more messing around. The heart, the skill, its all there. I know they can show us what they're made of.
Dortmund is good that is true but not like Barca and the goal difference to turn things around here is still fewer than that of barca game, actually what PSG need is for Luis Enrique to come up with a good tactics and Mbappe being able to play well, then we will be seeing psg in the final this season.
4  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / ZKSNACKS IS DISCONTINUING ITS COINJOIN COORDINATION SERVICE 1ST OF JUNE on: Today at 03:58:54 PM

Base on the info shared by Wasabi wallet on Twitter as from June 1st, Wasabi wallet will longer support coinjoin service.

Quote
Wasabi Wallet will continue to function as a regular bitcoin wallet, users can generate private keys to receive and send bitcoin. Even without coinjoins, Wasabi’s client-side filtering architecture, Tor integration and custom coin selection make it the most private light wallet available. However, the nature of the bitcoin blockchain prevents users from obtaining complete privacy without coinjoins.

This also affects users of other wallet clients that connect to the zkSNACKs coordinator, like Trezor Suite and BTCPayServer.

Wasabi Wallet is a free and open-source software and will continue to be maintained. Anyone can contribute, open new issues, submit pull requests, or even fork it. zkSNACKs will fund the continuous maintenance of Wasabi Wallet’s basic features.
https://blog.wasabiwallet.io/zksnacks-is-discontinuing-its-coinjoin-coordination-service-1st-of-june/

After what happened to Samourai wallet https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5494114.msg63988345#msg63988345, I guessed we all expected this to come also.

I will start saying that we need more user friendly crypto wallets and a system linking it, simple as it sounds.
I don`t really know how i`m going to put this that it may not seems disrespectful
What are wallets like Bluewallet and Electrum for, is there any complication for using it as a total beginer in bitcoin.

Also what kind of feature do you think these wallets lacks to become an actual user friendly
I wonder if you ever use a bank app before
7  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: OKX has stopped its p2p service for Nigerian customers on: Today at 10:01:51 AM
This is just becoming more annoying, they are going for the top exchanges, maybe soon Bybit will just do the same, I really will like to know the essence of all these.
Actually this changes was probably done today because I still remember doing p2p there yesterday. What annoy me most in all these is from the fact it is clear this is not the main problem in our naira devaluation.
E be like say the fight against crypto by our government no go stop anytime soon, so e better make everybody begin protect themselves and their funds, they might start blocking bank accounts at the slightest suspicion of any involvement in crypto transactions.
I think that news earlier this year about the unbanning of any crypto related transactions from CBN was just to lure others in order to do this because the way they are acting now is way off from those who support cryptocurrency adoption.
Thank God fee is currently pretty low, we can try using https://peachbitcoin.com/ or any other DEX from here https://kycnot.me/

Buy whenever you can and sell only when you absolutely must, regardless of the price.
Hmm, I have not thought about this but I guessed this is to prevent the regret of selling what seems high and then going to buy way more higher. Since once such a person sells, he/she will be waiting for the dip to buy more which may not come while the price continues to surge

Dortmund's win was good and they have the capital ahead of the second leg against PSG later. Even though they only won by a narrow margin, it meant a lot for Dortmund where they will next play an away match at PSG. I think Dortmund also knows that it will be very difficult to face PSG at home and maybe everything can change if the hosts play more intensely.

Last night PSG didn't play well and they couldn't steal the lead with the opportunities they had. Mbappe seemed under pressure and had no free space to move. I think Luis Enrique must learn from this first leg mistake and improve his existing strategy so he can turn things around at home later. PSG needs at least 2 goals but I think Dortmund will still increase their aggregate and will not play defensively at all.


Dortmund got a good win, which puts them in a good position for the second game against PSG.  Even though the lead isnt very big, goals scored away from home make a huge difference. But they know the job isnt done yet. Its a whole different game for PSG at home, and they'll be ready to go.

PSG did not play well last night, there is no way around it.  They missed some chances, and Mbappe was closely defended. He needs more help to make those crazy runs he's known for. Enrique needs to really look at the tape from this one. Dont make the same mistakes in the second leg. At least two goals need to be scored by PSG. There's no way Dortmund will sit back and protect, so both teams will score a lot of goals.

I think psg will still move to the final, this is similar to their quarter final match against Barcelona were they lost the first leg though that was at their home but I think the second leg this time won't be any different like we saw in the QR they are going to be the one qualifying, Enrique will probably learn from his mistakes and Mbappe will try to do alot better

As I said, predictable.

Soaring to new highs in the next year or so is just as predictable.
To be frank, I don`t want to bother about the dip because I see it distracting to me in accumulating more bitcoin, I was made to realised waiting for the dip dumb especially when i haven`t gotten anywhere in my bitcoin holdings, I will just buy now and anytime because I know one thing that is predictable in bitcoin is that, bitcoin will continue to raise with time

Over the last decade, this market has become all too predictable.

The whales now are gunning for sub 50K, and they will eventually crash it down below that.

Why sub 50K?

Because if you look at the chart, that's where they started seriously pumping the market with heavy leverage on 2/25.

They always short it back down to where they started. Dumping into their own (fake) buy walls.

It's all an effort to get weak hands to shit their pants and sell, and to knock stupid guppy day tarders out of their long positions.

Easy problem to solve tho, just HODL.

that would match the chart pattern of May-July 2016.  Back then, we shortly went under the 21 weekly EMA which would correspond to 47k this time.  Sure, we hadn't reached an ATH at that time, but we also hadn't had such a ridiculous inflation.

Will their plan works this time, lets be frank people are becoming more knowledgeable about the truth, many bitcoiners have now overcome FUD  especially after all the news we heard about bitcoin price in late 2022 which totally crap looking at the price movement since then till now. The truth is people can not just be a fool for ever .
11  Other / Off-topic / There are dangers from streaming matches from unofficial sites on: May 01, 2024, 10:41:33 PM
We know somehow subscription on official platforms to stream live matches can be expensive and many has opt to use other platforms offering really lower fee or entirely free subscription for Live matches.

In my country this is somehow common and one thing I have noticed about such sites is that they are filled with various ads, which is obviously were they get their money.

Now, Jenny Radcliffe, a professional hacker, has claimed the risks of illegally streaming are huge. Here is her statement

The perception that illegal streaming is a victimless crime is completely inaccurate

The sites that host these services are loaded with malicious links, back doors and tricks to access people’s digital and financial information, giving professional criminals an open invitation to steal from anyone who engages in these activities.

Whether it's multiple charges to credit cards, installing malware on devices, accessing bank accounts, or stealing personal information such as emails, messages, contacts, photographs, documents and browsing history, engaging in illegal streaming makes you a prime target for professional fraudsters.

And what is worse, because these activities are illegal, victims may have little or no recourse for recovering their losses and may even face criminal charges themselves.

Outside this fact another reason to avoid this is from the news about The Premier League has increased its efforts to prevent fans, whereby those caught offering such services with no copyright face charges and possibly jail terms https://www.sportbible.com/football/football-news/premier-league-iptv-illegal-streaming-godaddy-court-prosecution-561857-20240425

The match is very serious and both Dortmund and PSG are well prepared for this game... But it seems to me that today will be either a PSG win or a draw... I remember their group match in Dortmund last year... It was a draw then, but PSG played terribly... Now PSG is playing much better than it was at the beginning of the season... I hope that today will be no less interesting than yesterday...

Not sure if PSG should be favorites to win the first leg soon, but based on the line-up, I think they can be a little more reliable than Dortmund. PSG has a mission to score quick goals and lock up the game with ball possession and high pressure, but considering that Dortmund is playing at home, this match may be a bit more balanced.

Luis Enrique and his players have high enthusiasm to win the match after they managed to shock the Barcelona public with a fantastic victory. I admit that PSG's performance has improved with Luis Enrique, so there are good hopes about them this season, especially to qualify for the final.

PSG should be able to win in this first leg, although PSG playing away but because PSG is in a better situation compared to Dortmund then I think,there is no good reason for PSG to fail in this match.After all,based on the odds also atleast PSG is still quite favored to win, although not fully projected to win, but basically PSG really has a better chance in this first leg. But yes, if for example they still fail to beat Dortmund in this first leg, then PSG still has a chance to still qualify for the final match by playing better in the second leg later. But yes, anyway I pretty sure PSG will win in this first leg even though it might only be with a thin score.
Actually Psg should be able to win both home and away but to be frank this is only if they are really ready to play well especially Mbappe but either way I think they're going to make it to the final even if they lose today or at home in second leg just as we saw against Barca though it will be better if they lose today's game than to lose the second leg.

Us and their laws, they literally will always find ways to take control and milk others.

 I never knew this guy but I can say he really did mess up trying to act smart against the law even when he was having these numbers of bitcoins.

Though if he was really someone who really believes in bitcoin and stand to keep his nickname “Bitcoin Jesus ” in truth then he will still be a HODLer and the quantities of bitcoin he would have accumulated or still be having now will be enough for him to pay the $50m fine without him going bankrupt.

The US government will be happy now, since they are enjoying from the fact that bitcoin is the world best store of value from thousands of dollars to now millions of dollars

Davidvictorson, Musa Mohamed, Oshosondy Thanks for the reply which is helpful in being safe online but you all miss the essence of this post which is

My advice Is be careful of how you react to information you got from Twitter (X), especially if it's about financial investment or possibly avoid getting info from Twitter(X) since this is now becoming a common thing on Twitter yearly.

 in fact I would have prefer you being cautious more of anything about your privacy and finance in any platform or social media because we can never disrupt the fact that such accounts might be hacked and we did have similar issues about this here, last year were by many users claimed they never asked for a loan, stating their account has been compromised and in order to avoid this, it is required for anyone applying for loan to sign a message with their bitcoin address to prove their authenticity.
16  Local / Politics and society (Naija) / Re: If you want to scam an African man put it in the terms and condition on: April 30, 2024, 04:56:21 AM

You are very much correct bro, but am not quite certain when you are talking of the percentage involved....
What Op Is talking about here is that we should always read the terms and conditions of anything we do generally and this is true because many have suffered greatly from this ignorance even outside the crypto space. So we have to always take our time to know the terms and conditions of anything we buy or do because prevention is better than sorry


-snip- because I have experience a crazy and stupid terms  and conditions from most of this p2p merchant when doing p2p transaction, you will see a merchant that will say that two hundred naira will be deducted from the original money he wanted to pay as bank charges, if he is buying from you, so due to the fact that most people don't actually read terms and conditions on most of this adds the merchant put up, they will later start having problem with the merchant, and to tell you the truth, the merchant will always win the case when the issue is being settled by customer support, because his terms and conditions were  written down clearly already before the trade was opened, so they believed that you agreed to it, so in essence of all this, it's very very important to read terms and conditions of most of this merchant when doing p2p transaction, because most of them are just crazy, someone will boldly say that he wouldn't release or pay if your phone number is not submitted to him, so he can call, as if it's a compulsory thing, so we should be very careful with terms and conditions generally.

Actually bro your reply is great and I have also experienced it were merchant cut some amount as fee charges which is actually annoying to me, though once I see something of such I moved to another merchant or else you go with such term if you fail to see it earlier but please can you try give some space in your text since it's hard to read like this




17  Other / Off-topic / Be cautious of Account Hacked on social medias on: April 30, 2024, 04:24:32 AM
Anyone who uses X(formerly Twitter) often or usually get updated about security news may have noticed that there have been high profiles X accounts that has been compromised and this include
These high profiles X accounts fell victim of through majorly through phishing scam and also it's now obvious that majority of these high profiles don't use 2FA base on report from Twitter (X) team.

These phishing scam, which is the most common and we can say most dangerous because malicious actors has so many ways to victimize others with.

While these might just last for a short time, others may already been victimize before they become aware such account is already compromise and this were use to target crypto investors.

My advice Is be careful of how you react to information you got from Twitter (X), especially if it's about financial investment or possibly avoid getting info from Twitter(X) since this is now becoming a common thing on Twitter yearly.

 in fact I would have prefer you being cautious more of anything about your privacy and finance in any platform or social media because we can never disrupt the fact that such accounts might be hacked and we did have similar issues about this here, last year were by many users claimed they never asked for a loan, stating their account has been compromised and in order to avoid this, it is required for anyone applying for loan to sign a message with their bitcoin address to prove their authenticity.

Also it's advisable to use a 2FA if such platform or social media accepts it especially when you know you are among the top profile there.

Arsenal lacks a lot of qualities, would you say?  
I don't think Arsenal lack alot of qualities players rather they are just simply inconsistent and their recent form in the EPL is a living proof, I know many including me did write them off as league contenders earlier this year because of their form but now they were able to bounce back and also the only league contenders against Manchester city


and I know Manchester city is fighting seriously, and I know how much effort is going to be paid.  Clubs like Sheffield are actually meant to be respected because they always concede goals. and even with Salah, Liverpool is still finding it difficult to maintain there balance in the Premier League. and Arsenal will not be able to maintain that position, very soon we are going to the top.  
Actually I think it's obvious Liverpool is out already, now it's just a two horse race and I will not disrupt the fact that Gunners may win the league tittle after over a decade but just like I do say recently, Man city more likely will win the league since they are usually consistent during the season ending rather than the other league contenders

I hope they do, this is not your average casino where they offer sign up bonus to try the platform but with the minimum amount to use the platform like 1 MATIC they can try the system, and from there the player can increase their bets, let's admit it not all players are alike some are here to make money and some are here to test the platform and some are here just to enjoy the game.
And with the minimum bet everyone is included, I'm looking forward to this.
This is true and I think this would be better it compensate for the sign up bonus and made the platform more unique since I haven't seen any casino having this game and allows such low amounts.
1 matic works better for testing while they might add other third-party aside from using Changely for swapping other coins to Matic or maybe limit the minimum swapping quantity of these coins.

We have noted the feedback from the bitcointalk community, We have reported it to our team. We are waiting for goodnews from our main management and of course we need time until this brilliant idea can be implemented

Best Regards,

Peter
I'm glad you took our suggestion into consideration, I really hope they are implemented though it's obvious it will take time but as long as some of these are at least implemented, there will be a more positive growth.

I was buying all along the bottom of the bear market so current prices do not interest me too much as I got in a lot lower so I am just waiting to take profits.
Actually this is a bad idea, the price you may be interested again to buy more btc may never come ever again, just continue to buy because in a actual fact we don't know when bitcoin price will rise or drop but the only thing that makes most not bother about the price is from the fact that we know bitcoin is currently the world best store of value and if we HODL we will earn more in the long run.

Also bitcoin price movement this year before halving is different from the previous halving since we got to a new ATH before this halving, while others notably me were waiting for the dip before this year halving to buy btc, I miss it because I didn't even notice when the dip occurs since I wanted more price drop which was disappointing. I advise you continue to buy and HODL in order to make the best out of every market seasons.
