it's 3:0 now, bro wtf is going on with PSG, their game is so bad. i hope that they can turn it around and improve their rhythm which seems quite frantic... or else chelsea will secure the FIFA CWC 2025 title.
PSG fought a good fight for inception of the tournament and going to the final, they were so confident of winning the trophy with ease since they have already eliminated clubs perceived to be major contenders. Little do they know that Chlesea will be fighting dirty tonight, a clear case of "he that is down need fear no fall". I sincerely congratulate the Blues for this unexpected fight to finish that is about to earn them the FCWC title, to ensure they do not end the season trophiless.
You have a strong point here Odohu.  PSG went into the match with so much confidence and underestimation. So much was expected from PSG but from the score line I don't think there is anything PSG can do to salvage the 3 goal lead Chelsea has. Chelsea came in with aggressive attacks even though they are still struggling with their possession. The are making every attack count and also calculating their shots on target.

Outside fixing the bug I will like to suggest a customisable width attribute provided for the <tr> and <td> tags respectively so users can define width for themselves. I believe custom designs will help bring in better flexibility and walk around even if we encounter bugs In the future.

Judging from both teams previous meetings, predicting the game won't be an easy one in all aspect. PSG played good game last season and are still maintaining such consistency in the club world cup now that's why it's difficult to write PSG off as club world cup winner this season,  the presence of there dangerous attack that have the ability to cut across all diffensive obstacles of any opponents and there aggressive defence makes them very difficult to lose the game. On the other hand, Chelsea maintained an unexpected consistency in the ongoing tournament and can still win the game tomorrow but it's difficult to conclude that they can win PSG tomorrow. All I know is the end shall justify
I am predicting a full time draw. Chelsea has a good defense and that can be used to their advantage. PSG has a more balanced team but if Chelsea can build a strong wall in their defense they might take the game to penalties and use that as an edge to win the trophy but if they hope on scoring within 90 - 120 mins I doubt if they will withstand the heat and attack that will come from the Paris team.

Re: SWC & When a casino deletes comments in their self-moderated topic

And it is not good for a casino representative to delete comments in it ANN thread because the ones that are not favorable are part of the review of the casino.
What if the comments are negative critics full of lies, or a paid comment to tarnish the reputation of the casino. We all know in the web3 world it's our reputation that gives us the audience and market space. I am not disputing the fact that some comment can serve as review for a casino, that not withstanding I won't blame a casino who will delete propagandas and false testimonies just to protect their name and reputation. No business dreams of running into losses or bad reputation so they go as far as the can to protect themselves. If customers feel unsatisfied the create a thread in the reputation board.

Re: The Burnout Cult & Remote Revolution

Others that provide greater flexibility: work at home, flexible hours, focus on results, not time in the chair. Workers here are more likely to stay, are happier (57% more satisfied), and companies lose fewer people (25% less turnover). However, remote work is not ideal as well. Some feel lonely and at times you may be left out of promotions or salary increment, especially when you are a woman or have a family to care for
Remote workers feeling lonely is a matter of choice, the fact the work remotely doesn't mean they should be isolated. There are physical hubs for remote workers where they can network with people with similar passion as theirs, build and grow with. I believe happiness is a personal decision regardless of the kind of worker a person is.

Salary increment is result driven. A company will prioritize increasing the salary of a productive worker regardless of he/she been a remote worker or an office worker. Gender too has nothing to do with this.

Re: How do people gain profit when crypto is dropping?
by
Pablo-wood
on 12/07/2025, 11:01:16 UTC
To gain profits when crypto is dropping is very simple and common as well, i have two patterns in which we can use to determine for this.

1. You can be profitable as the market is falling and then you're taking advantage of buying the dip and investing, then you hold for the time being before it start to rise.

2. You can also be profitable when the market is falling by being a trader, whereby all you do is in taking short positions, but you must have seen it that the market is with all indication to be going down than rising.
Lets be sincere here the two patterns you mentioned here are not simple at all. holding a volatile asset requires a lot of discipline and commitment. Something that is learnt the same way we learn other skills and the same goes for trading. If professional traders record losses how much more a beginner. Trading requires training too, even if we choose to trade with bots we still need to understand the basics so we can detect/spot error in any setup made by the bot. Nothing is really simple if we must tell ourselves the truth.

Re: What is the best way to gamble?
by

on 11/07/2025, 20:40:00 UTC

Yes, it is very common to gamble just for fun, but people are greedy to an extreme degree, people cannot control their greed, and that is why they are unable to control themselves, gambling requires self-control, and to control yourself, you must first change your mindset, when you can stop yourself at the right time, and be satisfied with any outcome, only then will gambling be controllable, but if you decide with your emotions, it will undoubtedly be a disastrous decision.

Of course, people are greedy—and it’s precisely this feeling that the gambling industry is built upon. If people approached money rationally and thoughtfully, they would never feel an overwhelming urge to get it for free. In that case, casinos—designed to harness and channel these emotions into a business model—simply wouldn’t exist.
Come to think of it, if people were rational thinkers as regards money making and gambling I doubt if casinos would have been a lucrative business. Each passing day we lie to ourselves that we gamble for fun but in real sense we are driven by our greed and immaturity to emotional control and receptiveness to losses.

Most times I ask myself if people's mindset can really get changed as regards how the go about gambling, considering how greed has eaten so deep into gamblers due to many factors; some economic, others family and a few peer pressure, I sincerely doubt the possibility of mastering emotional control will be perfected by gamblers.

Re: Bitcoin as legal tender: A failed experiment?
by

Back in 2021, El Salvador took the first step into making Bitcoin legal tender. It defied the establishment by proving BTC can be used as an alternative to Fiat. Set ourselves forward 4 years later, and now El Salvador is regretting its decision. It made a deal with the IMF, in exchange of limiting its involvement with the world's beloved cryptocurrency. I guess all good things come to an end.
It was a failed experiment obviously, I believe it was worth the experiment after all. El Salvador understands better how the bitcoin market works and why it couldn't serve as legal tender not as a researcher anymore but from the stand point of experience, with the gathered experience they understand the advantage and disadvantage such that they will be first consult/ reference when it comes to making volatile assets as legal tender.

Re: No one can be forced to invest in Bitcoin

I will rather advice people to get knowledgeable about bitcoin first before investing in it. The knowledge acquired will serve as guide against falling market and FUDs. Many newbies who got into bitcoin investment and along the line backed out are results of low or no knowledge about bitcoin investment.

Forcing people into investing in bitcoin is like forcing people into choosing a career, such that if they lack the patience to wait and grow everything crashes and they comeback with blames. A gained knowledge about bitcoin is better than anything else someone tell a potential bitcoin investor.

Re: Is Bitcoin just for the rich?

Bitcoin is for those with rich mindsets. The media might have projected bitcoin as an asset that can only be acquired by the rich, I won't say that is totally wrong because there is still some atom of truth in that. The truth there is investors with the rich mindset will want to prioritize accumulating  bitcoin as much as they can knowing too well the more coin we get the closer it get to 1BTC and the closer it get to 1BTC the richer we become.

Re: Savings and Investment, and how it can affect standard of living.
by
Pablo-wood
on 10/07/2025, 14:48:58 UTC
Savings and investments have a direct impact on our life journey. Our small savings and prudent investments help us achieve our desired future success. A planned savings is more important for financial security throughout life. It is essential to maintain one's current lifestyle over time and to develop one's future financially. The habit of small investments and the process of controlling expenses along with increasing one's income, patience and courage to face risks and planning according to current market demands will help one move forward on a comfortable path to get real financial results in the future.
Mere savings keeps one in a perpetual loop. Savings will only increase our finance for a temporal period but investment helps build our finance for longer duration. If I save some money and over the years it yields me something big, it will look huge for that moment but the moment I fail to invest in something lucrative example buying bitcoin with the hope of a long-term return, I will end up spending the money on irrelevant things until it reduces drastically. I rather choose the idea of starting a small business over saving because investment will give me a guaranteed profit that mere saving will not.

however now only 3 days later PSG will play the final match against Chelsea.
From all analytical and statistical point of view the cup is PSG's. If they could humiliate Real Madrid to a point where they had to concede three goals in les than 25' of game play and the last goal in the 87' of the second half, then Chelsea will have to work even more harder to avoid been embarrassed as well.

PSG has picked enough form to withstand the coming season. At this point the have high chance of defending the champions league title if they keep up with their team work and solid style of play.

If there is a hub for scammers then telegram should be the headquarters. Since telegram has no verification scammers finds it as safe haven for their phishing link schemes, crypto scams,
fake investment groups. I am not surprised because imposters walk around telegram freely without fear of unmasking their real identity.

Re: Bitcoin as a Neutral Asset: Can it Really Stay Apolitical in a Fragmented World
by
Pablo-wood
on 09/07/2025, 19:24:41 UTC
It depends on individuals. We have very few bitcoin holders who run their own node and majority of bitcoin holders who trust custodial wallets with their coins. If we all go completely decentralized (non custodial) preferably running our own node then  bitcoin will only be a myth in the eyes of political leaders. 

Political leaders are crafty. They know the can't penetrate into bitcoin directly so the are trying hard to see that people buy into the idea of custodial wallet so they can have full control of people's asset. We can only outsmart the government by staying far from custodial wallets.

Regardless of the job unavailability and the new technology era, getting a degree cannot be neglected. We don't just earn degrees because we want to be employed we also seek to build our confidence career path and discipline. No matter how AI replace or  relive people of their jobs there will always be opportunity for those willing to advance their careers. Those so called AI models still need humans to improve them, they still need humans to monitor their activities and outputs so education cannot be neglected. A degree holder with solid AI foundation and perfected skill will get  employed regardless of how scares jobs becomes.

I leant that even the crypto market is going against you can still make gain out of the situation because to me am only experiencing lost and depression.
Yes but you have to be extremely experienced to ply this route. Most inexperienced persons get depressed when the market dips. One of the easiest way to navigate this is sticking to project with long term goal. Even in the bear you can make always buy more and hold and when the bull resumes it compensates you for your patience.

Quote
Please what do I do whenever the market is experiencing deepening? Is there a to reverse your trade or investment at that point that will make you gain instead of lost?
As long as your portfolio is made up at least 85% bitcoin then don't panic. Just keep your key safe and forget about what ever the market has to do. This truth is for every downtime there is a more direct opposite fun-time. When the bull starts again you will smile away the present frustration.

Now I'm confused about which team to bet on because both teams are certainly very good and extraordinary. Also, looking at the H2H, it's certainly interesting because PSG has won twice and Real Madrid has also won twice. However, if we look at their last Champions League match, Real Madrid won, and of course, we won't know because both teams certainly have different strengths than before. I'd like to hear your opinions...
Judging by Alonso’s strategy, Madrid will likely settle for a draw if they fail to break through PSG defense. This time, PSG should not be underestimated, as their previous experience has strengthened their mentality. Therefore, my tentative prediction is that the match could end in a draw during regular time and proceed to extra time. For a safer betting option, I’d go with BTTS (Yes), but it would be wise to wait for the lineups before placing any bets.
I just hope to have fun today and nothing more, predicting who will be victorious in this clash is quite difficult. PSG has gained enough experience and they have a balanced team. Madrid has the squad too but we haven't seen them play PSG recently. Today's match might go either ways. If Alonso must take Madrid to the finals he has to come up with a strategy that can break through PSG's defense else a careless mistake might lead to losing the match.

Re: Observation on life needs
by

on 08/07/2025, 19:50:07 UTC
Do you agree with this observation? Would you agree that it's better to not increase your needs in first place?
It is good to upgrade in life by increasing your need, but should be done at the appropriate time, but the lack of putting things in it's right position becomes  problematic. That's why we have the scale of preference, where your needs come before want. So we must be able to identify the most important one to balance up with our finances. Although adding more need usually becomes part of us, and not being able to continue with it becomes hard, but that's why we need to know when to increase our need.
I believe any need one can't maintain is not a need but a want. If a need should be increased it should be affordable, it's of no use increasing our needs when our source of income isn't sufficient enough to sustain it. What should be considered most is increasing our income source, by so doing it will make meeting our needs muchbmore easier and   increasing it won't become a burden or stress in the end

I wonder what truth could be in the meta data that has no measure of verification. It can be said that the story sounds emotional and narrative even though it lacks factual proof, such that one could just wonder what @TheREALcreator was thinking before coming up with such a story, I am forced to believe the intent was just to evoke responses because I see no valid point raised that can be informative to the public.
