Dortmund is definitely making very thorough preparations at the moment. But their careful preparation will not necessarily make them superior. But at least they have to provide strong resistance to Real Madrid. And didn't disappoint the crowd in the UCL Final. And Dortmund should also be able to enjoy the match more. Because it was a rare moment for them to get to the UCL Final.

Dortmund are very lucky to be in the finals this season, and they need to take advantage of this opportunity to see how they can play and if possible win Real Madrid. Real Madrid is a hard nut to crack which will make it impossible for Dortmund only if this season is theirs by fate. Real Madrid is known to be the favorite in the league and they have not lost any final match so I don't see this season a different one for them, because they are use to winning the league.

Regardless of whether this is luck for Borussia Dortmund or not, their achievements in the Champions League this season are something good, they have provided something that is actually beyond everyone's predictions.

The opportunity came to them this season, but this is not something easy for them, because the opponents they will face are the strongest opponents currently in the Champions League.

It happens that during this time that Dortmund got to the finals, they will be playing with Real Madrid wh is the league favorite. Assuming it was not Real Madrid that will be playing with Dortmund in the finals, I would have say that Dortmund would be the winner of this season champions league. Dortmund needs to try their best to what the outcome of their best will be like.

Instead, they are telling all exchanges to delist Naira from their exchange, and the EFCC have also told airports not to use dollars again but Naira. Will this revive our dying currency to start gaining value over dollar, or the focus on production should be handled urgently.

Some news also suggests they think crypto or P2P is the culprit for this forex manipulation if I recall correctly. Sounds like the deflation is worse than I thought if they keep bleeding like this. I'm not an expert by any means but if there's no reason to invest in the country because they don't produce anything, I think there's no reason for the market to value their fiat currency that much. Sounds like there are complex issues and the only way to untangle the mess is by finding the right person to steer the government, which is probably a hard thing to do[1]. CMIIW.

Exactly, no one wants to sacrifice to fix thing in the country because that was never their intention from the beginning when they were fighting for power. The government is just doing things like people that don't know what they are suppose to do and their decisions are affecting the youths, the citizens and the economy of the country. Our refineries are bad, they cannot fix them, instead they import our crude and bring back few byproducts, just because the person in charge of that contract is benefiting a lot and they share the money amongst themselves. That will make them even happy that the refineries are bad, and they are busy blaming exchanges that are innocent,whereas it is the government that is manipulating the Naira through their fraudulent actions and corruption.

its the government that we are hoping to help because we are citizens who have been paying tax since time. but we have to stop hoping they will provide something?
this is not what is going on to other countries that we don't expect.

job layoffs and inflation is really killing the way of life of everyone especially us who have been in the cities who are already reliant to supplies from the government . without the help of government, it will be anarchy in the end.

Yeah you are absolutely right mate. But politics is what makes it a piece of crap because they wanted to control us they wanted us to rely on them. I think they wanted us being poor so they can dictate or make us their puppets that is why we must find ways to prevent this kind of situation.

Exactly, the government wants to control us and this is why they choose to suffer the citizens by not providing jobs for them and steal the public funds in order to make us vulnerable to them. This is why I blame the youths that are working for them as political thugs during elections, will end up dead and these politicians will be happy they are in power. If the poor ones can look for a means to survive on their own and invest in something little, we might be able to fight out bad leaders since most poor people will not depend on them.

he is not making a serious effort to sell him since he offers prices that are truly impossible for the teams to reach for the teams that accept him to play with them
unfortunately the fans are the big barrier to buying him, so Chelsea should lower the price a little if they really want to sell him

Can be said like this. Hemm
At that time, if I'm not mistaken, it was Lukaku who Chelsea was reluctant to sell. He doesn't want to play at Chelsea, but he also doesn't want to be sold, he just wants to be a loan player and that's only for Inter Milan. Yes, in recent seasons Lukaku has really failed at Chelsea, he has become somewhat traumatized by the Premier league. However, when he was at Inter Milan, he became good and contributed a lot to the team while on loan.

Oh yes, it seems like there are the latest rumors about Lukaku and Chelsea. They seem to have agreed on the sale, they have also reached an agreement on the selling price for this player. The price offered on the upcoming sale exchange is £38m. Indeed, there are several clubs who are quite interested in this attacker.

So, where will Lukaku ultimately end up next season? Is it possible to really go to the Saudi League?

I don't think that Lukaku does not want to leave Chelsea, but it is Chelsea that is still keeping him. It is better that they let him go to a club where he will have a place to call home, than Chelsea giving him out on loan from one club to another. The guy has a dream and he needs space for that. It will be nice to see him in SPL if he gets the offer.

Things are not looking bright for Barcelona if it's true that Laporta (Barcelona's president) decided to sack Xavi, not because of the team's performance, but mainly because of him daring to criticise the management of the club and opening up about the club's financial struggles, which allegedly angered Laporta.
And apparently, they intend to replace him with Hansi Flick, whose latest job was as the manager of the German national team. He was the first manager of Germany to be sacked in the role's history, after a series of disappointing performances. Not a great sign.

I also doubt the new coach can be better than Xavi. Not sure why Laporta finally decided to sack Xavi, it is surely not a wise decision. Xavi already did his best effort to manage Barcelona squad although they have very limited experienced players. Many of Barcelona players are young players from their academy. The coach who don't really know Barcelona, won't have a chance to manage them well. Hansi Flick is not a person who knows well Barcelona. I don't understand why Laporta wants a German coach to manage Barcelona. It is a totally confusing decison.

Laporta is a man that hates the truth and wants to hide under a fake life. Why will he sack a good coach because he could not shut up his mouth when all blames was pointing at Xavi as a bad coach during the earky start of the season when Barcelona was losing matches before they got back to be in form. If he sacks Xavi because of some sentimental reasons and not because he is a bad coach, let us see what the new coach can do. It is not about pride but about victory and who can do the job better to achieve an excellent result.

Yes both holding and trading depends on one's personal factors and risk management and patience. so if one has sufficient amount of funds to invest for long term he should do holdings.  And if one can take risk and have enough funds to trade then he can trade. I do both holding and trading as per my convenience. Day trading is risky but profit can be made using different strategies but it requires long experience.

Holding and investing are profitable but it will also be good if you invest in Bitcoin and then leave it for some years and then completely focus on trading if you know about trading but if you have minimum or no knowledge then first give value to learning because the more you learn the more you will be successful.

If someone doesn't have enough amount then he can just hold a single successful coin without making any trade because for trading you will need more money while investment is not based on daily decisions. It depends on you that you are willing to do both or take advantage of any one in which you are interested and have a clear concept.

I do both, always hold bitcoin for the long term. I also trade with altcoins, of course the coins in top coins. Because I think this is safer, because I am also not a professional trader who dares to trade with new coins.

I don't have much experience in trading but still I keep trading. My average trading result is not as expected and also I have to be under human pressure if I take up trading. Every time I take on a new trade at the moment I feel a sense of excitement as the price is too much high or low i have to worry about that. But no such situation will prevail if i am a holder. Whether the market conditions are good or bad, the holders are safe till the specified time. And an advantage for Bitcoin holders is that every four years when Bitcoin halving occurs new ATH will be available.

You are right trading will mess with your emotions and stress you up with much thoughts in the market, which makes it not an easy way to make profit. I don't have the zeal to trade as I don't like much worries on where my fund is. Hodling is very easy as long as you are using the right amount to invest that will not affect your monthly expenses and needs. All you need to do is to buy to your target and relax hodli, like you kept a good amount of money that you are saving in the bank for long to execute a project. Profit is the advantage of long term hodler.

I could remember way back when I was always gambling without luck and run at loss almost every time that I gamble. This will make me say to myself I will quit gambling, but after a while, I will think of gambling and I will try to hold myself back, which happens. But my mind will keep telling me to gamble, and after somedays I will gamble again. Same thing will happen and I will repeat the same words again. This happened to me over and over again, but look at me now I am still gambling and having fun with it. Have this ever happened to you that you said you will quit gambling but didn't.
Why is it that, it is when a gambler is losing that he always think of quitting.

      -   Of course, that happens to me too, because I also often lose when playing gambling, although I always only put a small amount into the casino, so it doesn't hurt me that much to lose either.

But of course, sometimes it's also inevitable that I hope to hit the jackpot like other gamblers who get lucky. Even if we say that the main bottom line is just for fun, it still doesn't go away from our minds that we hope to be lucky in gambling.

Hoping to hit the jackpot someday is what all gamblers are always hoping for and this is why it is always impossible for a gambler who is gambling responsible to just quit gambling finally without a good reason. This is what I always have in mind too, especially when someone close to me wins big, I feel that my own winning day will also come. As long as you are gambling with a little amount of money, then even if you don't quit, it is still fine. But quit gambling if it is affecting you negatively.

Usdt is mostly used to secure investment especially when trader are trading and there is market fluctuations like uncalled dip at this point the trader can easily stop trading and secure their funds in exchange using usdt or any stable coin on exchange such dai, usdc and any other currency that serves as stablecoin. I don't they should be compared together because both has no similarities and one is centralized while the other is decentralized currency.

Those who dey always sell coin nai dey use USDT pass. Me I no even remember when last I keep or sell coins in USDT. I like to sell my coin in BTC. Though USDT is good to keep coins as you said because the fluctuating is minimal and not like bitcoin and Ethereum. And the first time when I noticed USDT it was a boy in compound used to buy USDT and sell it within a week. I have bought from him too but I still convert it to bitcoin and sell it.

The same reason with yours that made me not to always have USDT, thinking it is not important and I only sell and buy bitcoin. Recently, I was proved wrong on such mindset, when I got paid in USDT, and immediately I converted it to bitcoin, of which I still need to use some part of the money. The next day, I wanted to make a trade, I saw that bitcoin price dipped ans I was running at loss. I git mad at myself, and decided never to convert USDT to BTC anymore and for that reason, I always keep my spending in USDT to keep the price stable.
