Re: Should I depend solely on Bitcoin?

How did your friend become successful so quickly from Bitcoin? Did he invest in Bitcoin? Or did he trade with Bitcoin? Bitcoin can never make a person successful or rich quickly. I think your friend is gambling or trading with Bitcoin. Otherwise, it is not possible to achieve success so quickly. If you think that the way to become successful quickly from Bitcoin is to gamble or trade with Bitcoin, then I warn you. Your friend may be going to face losses very quickly. There is no way to become successful quickly from Bitcoin.

Never take any big steps even after seeing the short-term success of others. First read about Bitcoin and study how Bitcoin works. I think you may be telling a fabricated story or your friend has taken a risky step, where your friend is lucky and has not started losing money yet. Maybe it will happen very soon. Because, there is no way to become successful quickly from Bitcoin. Even keeping all your money in Bitcoin is a riskier move.

Re: Balancing Financial security and Bitcoin Accumulation

That's just the rightful way and a crucial point to go about our investment into Bitcoin and to avoid being forced into selling  our investment into Bitcoin to help us stand these tests of time, because we definitely will have some problems or have a period we may be faced with a financial storm along the line while our investments are still running. If emergency funds aren't in place for such arising problems, your goals won't get achieved over the long run. While investing for the future, we should make plans or preparations for unexpected expenses so we don't dip hands into our Bitcoin holdings.
We should not be too sure about the future. It may be that you have succeeded in long-term holding without an emergency fund, or you may not be successful. Both are possible.

But we must not take this risk. Because Bitcoin investment is very important for a person and if you can succeed in the investment, your quality of life may change. It is not advisable to deliberately take risky steps in such an important matter. We must have a positive attitude towards investment and have proper plans against even the slightest negative possibility.

Although there are two possibilities of success or failure in investing without an emergency fund, the possibility of failure is still high. So we should not ignore the emergency fund in any way. We should not even be sure about the future, whether it is positive or negative.

Re: Do you think positive mindset keeps you winning?

Have came across many people talked about positive mentality or mindset while gambling, and of course it's good to have positive mindset or mentality while gambling but, to what extent would you keep losing to understand that not all time you would keep counting on positive mentality or mindset than drawing a close check of your gambling statics to know that you don't need only positive mindset rather you need strategies to get winning instead of keep losing without adequate planning.
It is good to have a positive attitude in gambling, but it cannot affect the chances of winning in gambling. Using strategy, luck and the ability to stop at the right time can increase the chances of winning in gambling. Whether you win or lose, if you fail to stop at the right time, your losses will continue to increase. Luck is very important to winning in gambling and gambling strategy also plays a role. But you need to learn to stop so that the amount of losses does not become too much. Otherwise, you will lose a lot.

Re: UEFA Champions League 2025/26 Season

For next season everything will be different and for what happened in the Club World Cup I think it can't be used as a reference anymore but it must be admitted that for PSG it won't be easy next season because defending the UCL title is very difficult but I think apart from that the PSG team still has to be watched out for, I don't see their shortcomings after losing to Chelsea in the Club World Cup final, that's a normal thing for a team when they can't perform at their best.
The upcoming season will be very competitive compared to the last season. Next season will not be easy for PSG at all and I am very optimistic about PSG winning the title next season. As a team, they are doing great and are a threat to any opponent, but the concern is the opponents' caution and homework. No team will take PSG lightly next season, just as many teams considered PSG an easy opponent last season. PSG took 100 percent advantage of that thinking and became champions last season. I see that dream surrounding Real Madrid, Barcelona, Liverpool and Arsenal in the upcoming season.

Re: How quickly do you forget a loss

on 24/07/2025, 10:22:27 UTC
I forget that pain as soon as I get up from the gambling table. Because I keep each place separate and each work subject separate. Gambling ends at the gambling table. I do not disturb other work with that subject and do not let that pain interfere with the enjoyment of life.
It is true that no one wants to lose. But in the case of gambling, we have to accept the loss and forget it very quickly. But do not forget to learn from it. Correct the mistakes and forget the pain of loss.

Re: Buy Buy Buy or Sell Sell Sell?

Anyone who understand the concept of bitcoin investment will never be tempted to sell his holdings whenever there's a massive increase in the price of bitcoin. Even if they will be tempted to sell due to one or two reasons but not to the extent of selling all thier bitcoin investment, As a bitcoin investor is advised to sell some portion of your holdings and then allow it to compound upon itself or keep accumulating more bitcoin to enable you fill the missing space rather than selling all your holdings and start fucking around or looking for a way to start building back your bitcoin portfolio, because the price might get to a certain point where you will be thinking on where to start from and this can probably make you lose interest in bitcoin investment.
It is not wrong to sell some of your holdings if you have already achieved your goal and have enough Bitcoin. However, if you are in the early stages of investing or have not yet achieved your goal or accumulated enough Bitcoin, it is better not to focus on selling. Bitcoin investment is not something that you just invest in, rather you can enjoy the investment or use it in real life after achieving your goal.

I cannot give any specific advice to investors who have accumulated enough Bitcoin or achieved their goal. Because they are already experienced and may be more knowledgeable than me. But for those who have not yet achieved their goal, it would be better not to express interest in selling Bitcoin, even if it is partial. Keep investing consistently to achieve your goal and fight to achieve your goal.

Bitcoin is a savings that is kept for the future. If a person creates Bitcoin as an emergency fund, then he is making a big mistake. Because investments are made for a long term period such as 5 to 10 years. And we create an emergency fund to protect our portfolio. But there are some people who use Bitcoin as an emergency fund. If you are a person who does this, then he can find himself in many bad situations. For example

*If the price of Bitcoin decreases and then that person needs money, then he will have to sell it at a loss

*If he sells at a loss, then he will be behind in terms of money and then that person will have to take a loan.

*He will break down mentally a lot.

*He may blame Bitcoin, such as Bitcoin is fake etc.

Bitcoin is very risky, but not for everyone. Because I think Bitcoin is very low risk for people who can have proper knowledge about Bitcoin and hold their holdings for the long term. Bitcoin is very risky for people who invest in the short term or use Bitcoin as an emergency fund.
The main reason not to keep Bitcoin in an emergency fund is to make it easier to use emergency funds in an emergency. Bitcoin is never a suitable currency for use in an emergency. Because it takes some time for Bitcoin to be converted into fiat, which can cause delays in using it in an emergency. Even price volatility tends to have a negative impact here. So, in order not to delay solving the problem in an emergency and not to face losses, it is absolutely foolish to keep Bitcoin in that emergency fund.

So you should create an emergency fund in such a way that you can use the emergency fund very easily and quickly. Always choose fiat money for the emergency fund and definitely keep it in real currency. Keeping the emergency fund in a bank or online money is also not advisable or the right step. Keep the emergency fund in a place where you can use it at your fingertips and from there you do not have to count the losses.

Real Madrid is still strong to challenge many teams next season, to have a good performance through out like the way they displayed last season to reach semi final. I know there is a little challenge which Real Madrid coach must correct in this pre-season to get it right next season, he need to work on his defenders because they contributed some of the things that made Real Madrid to missed UEFA champion league and FIFA club world cup title, I don't think Real Madrid strikers are weak if you check their performance last season, I have that faith that Real Madrid strikers will improve more than what people saw in them last season.
Real Madrid have a great attacking line, no one should complain about their attacking line. But the selfishness of the players in the attacking line can be a bit of a worry for Real Madrid. We often see selfishness from Kylian Mbappe, Jude Bellingham and Vinicius Junior. If this problem is not resolved in the upcoming season, we may see Real Madrid exit before the final like last season. The defensive problem has been solved to some extent, now they are ready to take the field. But I am still waiting to see how brilliantly they can perform.

Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod]

on 23/07/2025, 10:51:56 UTC
I expected Dhruv Jurel to be included in the playing XI, but the selectors had other ideas and included Anshul Kamboj instead. And given the fact that bowling was the weakest point for India, it makes sense. For this match, India has included four pacers: Shardul Thakur, Anshul Kamboj, Mohammed Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah, on top of spinners Ravindra Jadeja and Washington Sundar. My concern here is that it may make their batting really weak. Also, Sai Sudarshan is playing just his second test match.
I don't have any confidence in this Indian XI against England. Their bowling line-up in particular still looks quite weak. Anshul Kamboj is a new face for me in international cricket. I haven't seen him bat or bowl yet. Although I have confidence in the Indian bowling line-up because of Mohammad Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah. I think Akash Deep would have been better in place of Shardul Thakur and Dhruv Jurel would have been a good option in place of Anshul Kamboj. I think Shardul Thakur and Anshul Kamboj will leak some runs. Their batting line-up might still remain the same.

Re: Which is more regrettable?

For lottery I prefer to use a set of numbers, not a single number. But yes, I prefer to use the number that I feel lucky to use. But not always, but as long as it keeps winning me. When I am losing repeatedly, I do not hesitate to choose alternative numbers.
Betting on the same number is a bit boring when you are losing repeatedly. It is better to have multiple number options and use them. Winning in betting requires luck, it can be any number.

If an investor invests with more than the amount of money he can afford, he is only gambling and not investing. Who told you that such person will be able to acquire a large bitcoin portfolio in future. Rather, that investor is going to sell his bitcoin portfolio before time when he needs arise, because he has invested more than his discretionary income. The worse part of it, is if bitcoin price dips below your exit point, you will run at loss. A bitcoin investor should only invest with part of his discretionary income to buy bitcoin so that he continues to accumulate week/monthly whenever his discretionary income is available for 4-10 years and above without selling till his desired time.
You seem a little too sure about the future. What you said may be right, or it may be wrong. Investing more than you can afford is a wrong move and as a result you may face financial problems in the middle and be forced to sell the investment. However, it is not certain that such a move will force you to sell the investment. I am not proving you wrong, but I am requesting a possible statement about the future. Because as you say, it may not be like that in reality.

Investing more than your ability can never be a good move. You may be moving towards the goal faster, but there may be a doubt whether the goal will be achieved or not. Because Bitcoin investment is long-term. You have to remember that you will not be able to use what you are investing for 4-10 years. Using it means that you are breaking the investment and all your previous troubles with the investment are in vain. So invest within your ability and take the right steps for financial crisis. Financial management is important for investment.

Re: 'We Can Double Your Bitcoin', why are Nigerians still falling for this in 2025?
by

on 22/07/2025, 11:26:09 UTC
Except for a fool, there is no chance of anyone falling for such a scam. Someone who only knows Bitcoin and what Bitcoin is, may not be affected by such a scam. Because it is common knowledge that there is no such scheme in the world where you double your money in a very short time. Even I would call it a very low-quality scam and the person who is running this scam is also a fool who has no knowledge about crypto or Bitcoin.

We may not need much knowledge to identify a scam. Just be careful of temptations and ignore the easy way to get rich. Because there is no way to get rich in the world without hard work. The amount of hard work you put in, the same amount of results you will get.

Re: Have you been addicted to gambling in the past.

on 22/07/2025, 11:12:02 UTC
Self-control will be enough to get out of gambling addiction. You can only take a decision or take help from others to get out of gambling addiction when you feel remorse. Otherwise, there will be no hope of getting out of any addiction through others or yourself.

To get out of gambling addiction, I will give you the best advice that you should focus more on self-control in the beginning and quit gambling gradually instead of quitting it completely. If you decide to quit gambling suddenly, it may not be successful. What you need to do is reduce the amount of gambling. Continue to reduce the amount of gambling in this way, eventually you will succeed in quitting gambling completely. This process may take 2-3 months.

Re: Have You Ever Felt Like Gambling Was Affecting Your Life Negatively?

As long as I was able to gamble in a disciplined manner, I never felt like this. If I ever started gambling in a disorderly manner and lost my self-control, then I would definitely think like this. It is necessary for an addicted gambler to think like this. If you can feel like this, then I can say that you have achieved the first step of self-correction. Addiction to gambling is always a negative aspect, addicted gamblers must think that gambling is negatively affecting their lives.

Less than a month to go for the new season to be underway!  Smiley  Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid competed in the Club World Cup you know. Do you think this will make them readier for the beginning?

But the disadvantageous side is that players had to come back to new season training by a smaller break. Barcelona players had much longer time to rest before training. But the sad thing about them is that they can't make signings easily because of La Liga FFP.
I think Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid are not in a good position to start the season. This may be due to the participation in the FIFA Club World Cup. We are only human and we need to rest. But Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid players may not have had enough rest. That is why their players may look a little weak at the beginning of the upcoming season and the coach may have to pay more attention to the workload management of the players. This is just a guess, the mood may be different. If this happens, it will not be surprising. We will find Barcelona players in a good mood at the beginning of the season, because they will start the season with a fresh mind after sufficient rest.

The price of Bitcoin is above $100,000 today. So what you mean is that the price of Bitcoin has not increased. Basically, the point is that we should never look at the price of Bitcoin and should always continue to buy. If you think that the price of Bitcoin has increased a lot, then you can never invest, so it is never right to look at the price of Bitcoin.

There is no guarantee that you will make a profit if you invest in Bitcoin. There are many risks in Bitcoin investment, but long-term investment is much less risky than short-term investment. If you can hold your saved Bitcoin for a long time, then you can make a profit.
Short-term investment is completely risky. Even there is an equal risk of profit and loss. Although there is no complete guarantee of profit in long-term investment. However, if you are successful in managing your investment in the long term with the right strategy and the right steps, then your chances of profit are higher. However, we cannot guarantee it right now.

Another thing is that many people pay more attention to the price of Bitcoin, which is unfair. Although it does not have much effect on experienced investors. But the effect of price volatility on new investors is becoming noticeable. So ignore the market volatility as much as possible and enter the investment as soon as possible if you have the ability.
