441  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: December 30, 2023, 02:11:59 PM
With how Napoli lost to Frosinone during the Coppa Italia, I feel anything can happen in the game today with Monza. Granted the visitors don't pose a threat to them but I won't be taking any chances with the game especially as Napoli have only won 1 of their Serie A and their key attacker, Victor Osimhen was red carded in their last game to Roma I just feel that Monza will want to prove difficult to beat.  
 Walter Mazzari's men will have to win the game tonight if they want to temporarily occupy the sixth place as a loss will prove costly.
Monza and Napoli are not in good form especially Napoli who are forced to lose Osimhen for this match because of a red card, but in my opinion still, even if it is like that Monza will not easily beat Napoli.

Maybe the big possibility in my opinion is the result of a draw or won by Napoli, somehow I quite doubt Monza in tonight's match against Napoli. Because I prefer to bet on Napoli tonight in serie A, although I have little doubt that Napoli will get a victory over Monza, just enough confidence 1-0 for Napoli.
It's quite true that the red card gotten by Osimhen in their last game to Roma will sorely affect them but we can also agree that the Nigerian can be done without in some games but in terms of strength, the home side have got more wins than Monza but one thing I'd agree with you on is that small teams just know how to upset the plans of big teams and in this case, Napoli who are looking to climb up.
 For Monza, they didnt mind a draw as it was better than a loss  but Napoli fans weren't impressed by the game as they expected more from their team and instead of goals, they got cards.
As I said, the match is likely to be a draw even though I bet a win on Napoli last night. Judging from the match in both games in my opinion is fairly equal, from the total domination of shots and so on not so far, and yes we witnessed that Napoli lost its vital tool to stab into the Monza defense, losing Osimhen was so very influential, seen from last night's match. A 0-0 result for Monza vs Napoli, with a red card for Monza's Mirco Maric.

BTW the ongoing match between Lecce vs Atalanta is still with 0-0 in this first half, it seems Lecce is much more depressed and does not have much ball to build attacks, the possibility of victory is greater for Atalanta, but who knows this ends up surprising.
The match was like a surprise because I never taught of Napoli losing match against Monza because almost everyone that is battle with Monza they always defeat them and its surprise that Napoli we know the little performance will defeat Monza, because all the matches of Monza they loosed  most of all them and it's few matches they win, the match between them and Genoa it was 1: 0 which they defeated Genoa and  Verona, so the team is so weak in performance the way I have seen them and watch them.

Luton vs Chelsea, i think after this match the position of Chelsea will increase in the table, because Chelsea is going to defeat Luton except that Luton Town makes some changes and without that I don't think that they can equalise this match, from the starting of the match Luton has being in hard labour battling with Chelsea, because the first half which is the beginning of the match and one goal was scored by Cole Palmer and second goal by Noni Madueke same first half and the way I'm seeing this match it will be difficult for Luton to score because at this 67 minutes they missed their opportunity to at least score a one goal.

A gambling is luck in which everyone have seen it, and I believe that gambling is something I know from my own understanding and my own views that with gambling your story can change from worst to good, because being successful with gambling is base on luck so gambling is something that the successful is not measurable and it do take unware and I believe that nobody hope on gambling totally because is something that we all know that it can take whatever we have suffered for years in one minute depending the kind of gambling we partake on
444  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What percentage of bitcoin investors are gamblers ? on: December 29, 2023, 10:36:26 PM
What percentage of bitcoin investors are gamblers ?  Where will this figure be if we consider worldwide users ? I think it will be somewhere between 10-20% ? Also, it is possible that most of gamblers are still not bitcoin investors ? I see  less chances of the later happening.
Not all that you see here's a gambler many people does not like to involve in gambling except that may their signature is participating fully in gambling so what they are trying to do is that getting the statistics of the forum members who is into gambling not many of them is a gambler because I know that forum will not more anger of someone to participate in gambling,  so therefore participating in a gambling is basically a personal understanding with you and gambling, some can discuss with issues of gambling but they can not gamble
445  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which one is fun, watching with bet or without a bet? on: December 29, 2023, 10:28:18 PM
Just trying to get the communities opinion based on their experience about the topic.

Personally, a a bettor, I find it very stressful when watching the game you are betting especially if it will end up a losing bet.

If we have the same experience, how do you cope up with that problem, after all, gambling should be fun but why we have this kind of feeling that we feel disappointed when our bet loses?
Actually watching game you bet is what makes it to be fun but some of you will choose that is not going to be fun when you bet without watching,  what I really want us to know concerning gambling is that you don't need to bother yourself since you know what to do and what not do, sometimes I do go and watch when something that doesn't relate with in gambling is happening and secondly people catch more fun when they did bot bet in gambling because they are watching the gambling because they fan such particular gambling and that is while they watch without more concentration
446  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How many hours is the best time for a gambler to last while gambling? on: December 29, 2023, 10:21:22 PM
So the question again is: how many hours do you gamblers think are more appropriate to spend while gambling?
Good question! it all depends on the mood, but most often it takes up to an hour,I try to be disciplined in this aspect. The important rule for me is play, but don’t play too hard and don’t try to win back right away.
I have a monthly budget that I spend on gambling and, if possible, I play on weekends. But I don’t want it to take up all my free time, so I’m trying to control the time I spend playing, since playing for a long time can lead to more negative consequences, I speak only from my experience)
In gambling it doesn't have a specification of time that will be spend in gambling, I know quite well that gambling is all about game and luck, secondly is dependable on the kind of gambling you are playing or betting on will determine if you will stay as you planned, so what I want us to understand is that it's not the total number of time you spent in playing gambling that will give you the chance of wining so therefore we don't to consider this question as important one because your funds and predictions can makes you to stay more than what you may expect
447  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Not everyone deserves to hear of your winning in gambling. on: December 29, 2023, 10:11:07 PM
Every story you tell someone can either be a motivation or something to get them depressed. I have been thinking about this and I'd like to pass this advice to every serious gambler in this platform who has won a substantial amount of money from gambling, not to share their success story about winning to everyone and in every place. You do not know the story of every gambler, and on the face some gamblers may just look alright but in deep down they are in debt, some depressed due to addiction to gambling that is destroying them and has made them plan to quit. Your success story when shared indiscriminately may trigger and motivate this addicted gambler battling to stop to want to keep gambling, having the believe that their time is close. Be careful who and where you talk about your success in gambling, you may just be encouraging an addicted gambler to continue.
I want us to not see everyone who is participating in the gambling like people who is having a challenge from one problem to another, because we have so many people who is in the gambling platform or playing gambling subsequently but they gamble because is part of them and they seems it like entertainment or kind of what they use for reduction of depression or thinking, so not all gamblers that do think whatever they spent in gambling, so let us not label gambling as bad one

Hello everyone,

I'm totally new and I don't have a steady source of income so I'm looking for some help, nice to meet you all 😊
It's better you make a provision of money to invest than for you to be soliciting for someone that will help you to start a cryptocurrency investment,  forum will give you an insight of the way forward of investment so it's left for you utililize their information by purchasing any kinds of cryptocurrency of your choice and invest, but you trying to beg for capital to establish your cryptocurrencies investment, I don't think that it's acceptable and members of forum doesn't support such, so I will like to lock this your thread and look for a capital to start up your crypto investment before someone will see you as a scammer

I have being hearing about Bitcoin for a very long time and I really don't know what it entails. I will really appreciate if I can get materials to aid me understand perfectly what it entails!
I don't think that you need any material to know bitcoin or to participate in bitcoin investment, so what you need is to make a research of bitcoin and also know the movement of the candle sticks if you want to trade in bitcoin or you want to invest for long-term in cryptocurrency and especially bitcoin, so for you to invest in bitcoin to know bitcoin according to your question, I think should make a research or follow exactly some of the discussion of bitcoin in a bitcoin discussion board even in speculation can equally help you to understand exactly what bitcoin is all about

I am a freshman student who is very interested in blockchain technology. Unfortunately, my university major is cloud computing. I don’t know where to start. Huh Huh Huh
What I will suggest to you right now is that you should make a proper investigation concerning what you want through Internet because nothing you want from Google that you will not find, also take advice of the senior colleagues that will help you to actualize your objectives, so therefore it's well known that what you are asking for university can not give to you from my own understanding of blockchain technology, I know quite that its to ask a question of this kind in the forum but nevertheless you have to be observant by going true all the responses or reply of everyeone
451  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How does signature Campaign Sponsors make their money on: December 28, 2023, 09:46:37 PM
Often times I keep wondering how signature campaigns sponsors get their funds considering the huge amount of money they pay campaign members of their various Signatures and Avatars because some of the Signature Sponsors Refills their Escrow Funds on a weekly or monthly basis.

 I want to know how advertising their Avatars and Signatures provides funds for the sponsors or is it that they just actually want their Signatures or their Avatars to be advertised to the public?
This question has once being discussed in this forum and many people gave their suggestions concerning how they managed to get funds for payment of their  participants, so I believe that they some of the money they get is through trafficking and some of the reasons that contribute mostly for the trafficking should be as the results of penetration to the site through clinking the signature code of the campaign, secondly in signatures of bitcointalk it make of us to know some of the brand that we have not come across with, so therefore they have different ways of getting funds to pay their participants.
452  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How can I start investing in Bitcoin? on: December 28, 2023, 09:37:05 PM
Can someone please guide is it a good practice to start investing in Bitcoin in this upcoming January-2024?
To invest in bitcoin is very simple and understanding if you have already know the basics things of bitcoin, because in bitcoin two things is in involve for the investment either bitcoin increase or bitcoin decrease, so I know quite well that the best way someone can invest in bitcoin and also make a profit is when the person watch and understand when the price of bitcoin is increasing, so I believe that bitcoin price will increase to the extent that you will make profit, so investing in bitcoin in order to make a profit you have to wait until the price is low or you have already noticed when the price of bitcoin will increase with your analysis
453  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin investment is kind on: December 27, 2023, 10:12:30 PM
OP you need to use what is obtainable now to draw your analysis of the decision you choose to make, though the congestion is mempool will reduce from time to time but I don't see it dropping anytime soon and January is almost around the corner so you should have an alternative should if the congestion and high transactions fees continue till the date you wish to establish the use of Bitcoin for you business so that you don't find it difficult to relate with customers who will be ready to patronize you through the use of Bitcoin.
The congestion now should not make someone to dislike bitcoin or make a transaction with the person that want to do transactions with bitcoin, its obvious and understanding that bitcoin is something that is good for investment despite the high fee of the transactions I think that many people do cherish and ensure that they have transact with bitcoin and also make a profit,  when you reason the congestion I don't think that it have to do with establishments of business with options of bitcoin payment
454  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can Gambling affect your relationship? on: December 26, 2023, 11:42:01 PM
Gambling has caused lots of strain in relationships especially from the standpoint of addiction.

The financial imbalance caused by gambling isn't cool with the parties involved, it makes parties prioritise gambling over responsibilities thereby leaving a sense of neglect to the other party.

The negative effect of gambling on relationships can never be overemphasised.


If you are addicted, not only will your relationship with your partner be damaged, but your business will also be destroyed, everything will be destroyed if gambling becomes an addiction. Usually, if someone has experienced an addiction, the negative impacts are very real, starting from finances and attention to our partner will also decrease because we will be busy thinking about gambling and forget our duties towards our partner.
Yes it is real when a man gets addicted to Jaya he is not like a normal man. A person addicted to gambling becomes a fairly unbalanced person. A gambling addict cannot concentrate on his religion, his family, his business, so a gambling addict becomes a very bad person to his family, to his partner, to his religion.


I agree, how can you handle the relationship properly if you yourself can't control yourself from gambling. Gambling destroys many relationships as well as families and we know that but others still gamble knowing that they are in control but in the end they are not. I also believe that even if you are not addicted to gambling as long as you gamble it will still affect your relationship.
Gambling can destroy your relationship when your partner notice that you are addicted gambler, if you are a someone that plays gambling with a precautions and hind it to your family you never have a misunderstanding with your partner or with your family, many people seems gamblers or whosoever that plays gambling as irresponsible person, but that is a fatal lies because gambling can not change your character except its a situation whereby you alone gambling to penetrate into your lifestyle and initiate another way, their is no educated person that gamble beyond its monthly and weekly income, so what causes issues in family or relationship towards gambling is when you are not meeting up with provision of your family and you divert the funds to gamble, so that is only thing that brings issues between partner towards gambling
455  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can you make gambling a profession - a full time job on: December 26, 2023, 11:32:40 PM
In the first place, I can't make gambling a full-time job, to be honest. Think before you win really big here; it will take a lot of money to make it happen if you are unlucky. It would be fine if you were sure that you would win every day.

As others have said in this section, the more a gambler plays for a long time and often at the casino, the higher the chances of the gambler becoming addicted. And this will be a big problem later, and it will be difficult to recover in this situation.
Yes, you are right that even for a strat you need a large amount to provide yourself with a budget for bets and games. It is also worth considering the likelihood of losses and how this will affect the overall budget and be prepared for any force majeure that may happen in life and of course the most important aspect is addiction, I think if games replace work then addiction to games simply cannot be avoided in the end .
I would not risk taking part in such an adventure, as I see more disadvantages.
This is one of the major mistakes many gamblers make and sometimes it leads some of them to be addicted in gambling, for someone to be addicted in gambling that means that the person have taken gambling as the source of its income precisely, so that is why I will say that no gambler should see gambling as life time job and the upmost source of income,  because when you take gambling as a source of income you will be gambling consistently and you will not know when you are supposed to gamble and when you not suppose to gamble even when you are making profits or not, so we need to have a bookkeeping for our gambling so that we will be able to know the statistics of our gamble.
456  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should mentally unstable people be allowed to gamble? on: December 26, 2023, 11:21:18 PM
My question now is are there any moral, ethical or legal obligation to bar a person from gambling after physically observing that he is mentally unstable?
Since you've mentioned the guy that didn't dress well, I don't think that this is all about the way he dress for assuming that he's mentally unstable or ill. But going straight to the question without the relation of the story you've mentioned, there's always the ground where the casino can stop someone from entering their premises. If that person does a lot of crazy things inside their premises, they all have the might to stop and ban him whether he is mentally unstable or not. But if it's just by the looks and judging like that, there can be some retaliate that person can do based on how he will be judged by just simply observing it without proper proofs.
If its a physical center of casino gambling can restrict anyone they feel like to stop from gambling, their is something I notice very well in gambling if you mentally derailed their is every possiblity that they will restrict the gambler not gamble with them when they notice, and they can only do so when you come to the gambling centre to obstruct their business, I know very well that if they dont have a genuine reason to ban someone not to enter their premises it will cause a shortage of patronage, that is why some centers of gambling betting environment always compromise with their customers
457  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Should security be employed in local bet shop? on: December 26, 2023, 11:05:09 PM
For those persons who prefer gambling in local bet shops instead of gambling online. I know that most times some persons carry huge sums of money to come to gamble and I understand that if it was a local casino there would be securities. Now, in the local bet shop, why are there no securities? I know a local bet shop close to where I reside. There are no securities there and there are people who act strange and mentally unstable there. They could cause fights, noise, and cheat. So for other persons to feel safe betting there I think securities should be employed there.
In some countries gambling shops is not legalized and that is why gambling shops does not care for a security the way I do see gambling shops in my country nigeria any day they think of securities through government they will be paying tax because in my country no shops of gambling that do pay a tax, so what I want you to know is that those shops doesn't come with big money because they do request for account number of anyone who wins bet and credit the person through digital mobile, so their is no need of walking around with money.
458  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: December 26, 2023, 10:58:03 PM
In the most important match of the day, Manchester United made a good comeback.Aston Villa, the team that has been going well in recent weeks and whose form graph is increasing day by day, came up against Manchester United.Aston Villa, who managed to lead 2-0 in the first half, lost the match 3-2 with 3 goals in the second half and met with defeat after a long time. Garnacho scored 2 goals and Höjlund opened the scoring for Manchester United in what we can say was an important match for Manchester United.With this win, United ended their 3-match winless streak in the league.Manchester United, who managed to increase their points to 31, are aware that they must now get involved in the race as they will focus entirely on the league.

I had little faith in Man United as they faced Aston Villa who were favorites and were actually looking good enough  to win. Man United’s comeback is a real and a welcomed surprise this Boxing Day. I must confess I didn’t have much faith in Man United chances of having a win and the first half of the game did nothing to change my mind as Aston Villa led by two goals.

I’m particularly thankful to Jonny Evans as he saved with his left foot, an Aston Villa good attempt from equalizing and ultimately drawing the game.
Good second half for Manchester City as they utilized Aston villa’s carelessness and staged a good comeback that gave them the win.
I never expected that Manchester United can be able to equalise this match to the extent of wining Aston villa, immediately match kicked off and after 20 or 21 minutes  John McGinn of Aston villa scored Manchester United and it was like firm and I have already bragged that Manchester United will defeat Aston villa and it was a bet, the one that shocked me most is the second scored by Dendoncker the second goal makes to lose interest that Manchester will lose the match not knowing that Aston villa is full of mistakes, so they are the one that gives Manchester the privilege to defeat them with 3 goal, so assuming it's Manchester United that scored the initial goal from first half they would have protected the goal until match finish, and that was what I had in mind that coach of Aston villa will instructs his players to guide their goal until the match finishes
459  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: CENTRAL BANK OF NIGERIA LIFT THE BAN ON CRYPTOCURRENCY IN NIGERIA on: December 23, 2023, 09:46:22 PM
I used to think that Bitcoin was not banned in Nigeria because of the high activity of members of the local council here. All this alarm and trying to convince people to invest, and Bitcoin is illegal in Nigeria. It seems that things would change if the authorities approved CEXs and gave them licenses so that it would be easy to deposit and withdraw to the bank account, even though I think it is better to invest in Bitcoin ONLY in the long term, but this step will reduce the fees paid to P2P brokers.
But before now I'm aware that bitcoin has being ban in nigeria and during that time the vice president have to announce that bitcoin can be restricted or regulated instead of ban. Its clear that since 2021 we have not operate with nigeria central bank to transact with bitcoin, but we are still exchanging our bitcoin through p2p, so what I want to ask you now is that can government also restrict p2p too, since we have been making use of p2p according to this information brought by our nigeria blood brother
460  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Continue to accumulate Bitcoin, till bull run or take break and enjoy Christmas on: December 23, 2023, 09:33:35 PM
I don't see how enjoyment during this yuletide season should affect ones plan to maintain a DCA strategy of investment. At least anyone venturing into investment should be matured enough to know what's important and profitable because any wrong expenses or withdrawal or diversion of funds in ones wallet or account, could hinder or derail the investor from continuing to invest.

Keep enjoyment money for one side, keep the money for investment for one side no matter how small, because a small fraction or half of the original money to be invested as part of DCA strategy of investment will help the investor keep focus alive despite the enjoyment during such seasons.
Wetin i know for cryptocurrency investment is that, it have to do with time  and also, its something I know quite well that investment and enjoyment is quite different things and I know that investment is something that have to do with your business ideas concept and when you don't know investment of cryptocurrencies and mostly bitcoin you don't have to venture into it, because you may lose or you may gain from it, an investment is done when you know the part very well, so we don't need to invest any how.
