I'm not trying to hold brief for him but we really can't say about his level of attention on his Twitter post.

He can also be excused if his Doctorate degree is not in English.

Pulisic is a good decision maker for his age.
Decent technique but not the most gifted physically.

Odoi who is more gifted physically is proving to be unintelligent on and off the pitch.

Using the Sanchometer i actually thought Odoi would be much better than Pulisic but the reverse was the case.

Maybe Odoi will get better as time separates him from that injury.

While browsing a page in ASUU and IPPIS on home page I saw this thread and this tweet supposedly from a lecturer

Na una tech guys go do this one. People like myself and Greatihex go just buy ontop the app jare and let them store it for us. We no fit do wetin pass our expertise.

BTC and other crypto fluctuate a lot , your 500$ investment can turn to 100$ before your eyes and stay there for like few months ..

So once you start investing treat it as piggy bank and avoid checking the price.

You will see a lot of articles saying Btc or ETh is scam.. just ignore and have a target price, could be months or years . BTC touched 20k usd in 2018 it has not touched 13k since then. Imagine buy at 16k since 2018


Summary. Buy when it’s low just like ibime suggested but don’t check the price every minute or every hour
Trust me you will want to but you have to resist the urge

Singapore1:
Important note though..
1 week in crypto is like 1 year in real life

Ibime:
Just download any app that list it - Coinbase, Kraken and Bittrex are the main ones we trust in UK. A lot of people use Binance also but I stay away as they are Chinese. Find the one that works with Naira accounts in Nigeria, and make sure your account is linked to it, for example make an initial purchase of like N1k so when they hit your price point, you are not scrambling around with banking administration.

Currently Bitcoin is already near the $10k mark due to Covid-19, so at the top of it's range. You will have to wait some months maybe before but comes back down toward $5k.

Ibime:
What I'm saying is over the next 2 years, buy Bitcoin when the price is below $5k and every few months you will get the opportunity to sell above $8k. Likewise, buy Ethereum when it goes below $150 and you will get the opportunity within few months to sell above $200.

I can't tell you long term that any of these two will blow. Anyone who tells you so is either an influencer, a marketer or has serious holdings and is trying to drive the price up for their own benefit. Same way in 2017 the same people said Bitcoin will go above $100k by 2020.

What I am advising is simply to play the game based on Economic principles. Most of Bitcoin and Ethereum are held by very few people who will not sell below a certain price. These are the creators and initial buyers of the coins, for example only 1,000 people own 40% of all Bitcoins. They control the bottom of the market below which they will not sell. That bottom right now is circa $4k for Bitcoin and $120 for Ethereum. So set your entry and exit points according to my first paragraph above.

On a more long term projection, Bitcoin is more guaranteed to stick around as a currency (although no one can tell you the price in 3 to 5 years) while Ethereums survival is simply hinged on whether they deliver a truly useful technology which may or may not happen.

Godx:
just look at this Bitcoin Prices started at $998 in 2017 and rose to $13,412. on 1 January 2018. Just in a year. Please do take it seriously. You will benefit in the long run.

Ibime:
It's not a 2 to 5 year game to be honest. I entered ethereum 2017 and exited late 2017 after some gains but before it made it's crazy run. I had post traumatic stress for nearly 2 years due to the opportunity I missed in that period.

Any crypto that makes good run will probably be a new crypto that becomes useful and widely adopted with the advent of 5G technology.

Both Bitcoin and Ethereum have no real long term use as as they both have technological flaws.

For both, but especially for Bitcoin, the investment game is medium term plays. Bitcoin usually fluctuates between $4k and $10 over the last 2 years and every 3 or 4 months it goes down to $4k. That is when to buy and sell a few months later for $8k to $10k. Bitcoins only use is as a store of value so you have to play the game of scarcity/demand and supply with it. It will probably only ever be a store of value. There are few people holding a good percentage of Bitcoin long term and can't really sell, so $4k is like the bottom at which you can't sell below because of those people's volume of holdings and inability to sell. So this is your bottom. When it hits $4k, you buy. Every few months, some people will feel it's a time to buy and run the price up to $8-$10k so that is your cap.

Ethereum also has a similar price/volume mechanism between $120 and $220 or so, so again you buy around $120-$150 and sell few months later for anything above $200. However Bitcoin is more longer term than Ethereum so Ethereum may disappear altogether in 2 years while Bitcoin will always be a store of wealth since the number of Bitcoin in the market is limited (creating scarcity) while Ethereum has an unlimited supply and was sold initially as a technological tool, not a store of wealth. I understand the Ethereum guys are working on a new blockchain that will be more useful going forward which will mean the current Ethereum will become redundant just like Ethereum classic. What they may offer is a like for like exchange from the current Ethereum to the new Ethereum just like they did from Ethereum classic to Ethereum and from Bitcoin cash to Bitcoin.

I cannot talk about trading (betting), only buying, holding and selling because it is a personal principle to avoid anything to do with trading.

Going forward, there may be some blockchain tokens that really harness the power of 5G technology and gain worldwide acceptance, but remains to be seen. Coins like MCO by Visa may fall into that category but it won't have the price volatility that we've seen from Crypto in the past because conventional markets do not like crazy volatility. In other words, it may be a long term hold that gives you single digits returns but you won't hammer.

Godx:
I don't know about etherium but if you want to invest in any crypto currency it should be Bitcoin. it could hit $30k by beginning of next year.

Ibime:
Wetin you want know?

BlueRayDick:
Although u addressed Ur post to Raumdeuter, but I just feel I should address this post and explain to u the views of some of us in this regard.

There's something called Pascal's wager which we sometimes use in Risk management.

Pascal's wager is premised on the fact that a rational person should live as though God exists and seek to believe in God. If God does not actually exist, such a person will have only a finite loss (I.e some pleasures, luxury, etc. Which he deprived himself while on earth trying to believe in God), whereas if God does exist, he stands to receive infinite gains (as represented in the eternity a Christian is promised after death) and avoid infinite losses (eternity in Hell).

Majority of the people who are Christians in the world today where technological breakthrough have debunked and solved a whole lot of myths in the past are only acting on pascal's wager. They've seen YouTube videos of magical acts that would've been credited to supernatural powers being explained as just tricks and play on people's intelligence. These people are only being Christian due to the uncertainty surrounding the existence of heaven or hell.

Take away the uncertainty surrounding the debate about how real heaven or hell is and most people wouldn't care about being Christian, Muslims, Buddhist etc.


Voodoo/juju that has failed countless times when faced with products of science and technology is the least of problems of these guys

Herbiedeen:
Ok,Nani has 3goals and 1 assist (4 out of 9)
Ronaldo has 3goals 2 assists (5 out of 9)
Ronaldo has most MOTM in the tournament, he won the Silver Boot which he dashed out to Nani and was also in the Team of The Tournament

[s]Tell me one personal achievement Nani has in that tournament[/s]

Infact, i'm tired of this argument

Herbiedeen:
Nani did not have a similar stat 2goals 2assists
He missed a pk in the group stage but his two goals and an assist in the 3rd match qualified them for the k/o stage..
Silver Boot
Team Of The Tournament
So tell me how Nani became their best player
Nani was not even among portugal's top 3 players at the Euros
Renato even had more recognitn

Herbiedeen:
Bro, if you can play ugly and win then why not go for it...
What's the essence of a beautiful football without result to show for it, just like when Madrid turn Tiki-Taka to Kati-Kati against Bayern(2014)

Portugal scored 9 goals at Euro 2016, Ronaldo had 3 goals and 3 assists; thats 6 goals out of 9. so tell me, who's their best player??

simonjassy:
Though i am a chelsea fan and i have had my share of humiliation from barcelona,messi should not be disrespected by ronaldo's fan boys.Messi is a much more versatile player compared to cr7 and to me he is a better player and twice the man cr7 is on el classico days.

simonjassy:
What trophies did he deliver for portugal?. is it the euros that eder won or the euro 2020 qualifiers turned uefa nations league in which bernado was more influential than your c.ronaldo.Have you forgotten the 2006 world cup that ronaldo played?.

Swissh:
Why is Drogba not a better no 9 than Suarez? How many finals did Suarez score in than Drogba.

Melvyn11:
Portugal before Ronaldo Era...0 finals and 0 trophy
Portugal now.

Melvyn11:
Ronaldo dominated two leagues....fact

Ronaldo won every individual and collective awards in those league....fact

[s]Ronaldo has delivered two trophies for his country....fact[/s]

Ronaldo has won every where both country and in every league....fact.

Don't bother replying with more Shalayes about your Camp Nou legend and Argentine flop. Not interested one bit.

Ibime:
Make una drop these atheist/religious argument which brings problems between fellow Chelsea fans.

Religion is an emotive subject and when you have two extremists like gensteejay and Diggz, problem must surely follow.

Let all men follow Fenibeso to return peace to this thread.

Swissh:
Godx was right. You haven't said anything sensible at all. What does morning devotion has to do with religion being the problem of Nigeria. Which school did you attend that you weren't taught evolution, biology, chemistry and physics?

nihilistjnr:
Just as a reminder: Football is back on Saturday.

I'm a childhood Dortmund fan, born and raised in Dortmund, in our family house beside the petrol station by the junction at the back of Signal Ideuna road.

My Great Grandfather was a fan of the 18 other clubs on the table except for Bayern, so i have inherited his fandom too.

Insha Allah we will prevent Bayern from getting their filthy hands on the trophy.

fuwaski:
Yes i used phone but leta used pc. Same thing. It wrote that i couldn't claim calls

fuwaski:
Bross this calls disappears before i could see them coming. In 1 seconds, everything is gone. To make this money no easy o

Godx:
Drogba and Lampard have actually fought over penalties before. Rooney and Drogba was fighting for golden boot and were tied on 26goals each on the last day of the season. Chelsea vs Wigan Drogba wanted to take the penalty to go above Rooney but lampard didn't allow him. Drogba ended up scoring an hatrick tho.
