Bitcoin Forum

Hello community

I just opened this account here but although I won't say this is the first time am hearing the word Bitcoin before although Bitcointalk itself an entirely new term to me. Bitcoin is almost everywhere in my region and although it is said to be restricted to trade or transact it with fiat bank but still yet it has refused to die low.

I won't lie folk I was really skeptical upon seeing and been told by a friend that such community exist where one can go and discuss all about Bitcoin and other related crypto issues, it's really nice to be here although I have about Bitcoin many times from folks all around me and believe me it's definitely hard to miss out on this term but I would count myself still a newbie as my profile even says so and will be willing to learn more about crypto and Bitcoin in particular.

Hope I get a warm welcome and I will also try to see it to that many folks that are into Bitcoin come about locating the wonderful forum .

Welcome mate to the forum and as my advice to other newbie account that I have come in contact is always about the plain context of reading before ever jumping to conclusions amd contribution, well that's same advice I would give again here, Bitcointalk is a really simple place to thrive especial in terms of all the knowledge that is available here so it's left for you to work your way and tap from so you too can help build the minds of other upcoming crypto enthusiast.

Most of the fellows already gave a warm welcome to you so not being redundant I would like to say that if you are really interested in learning you need to struggle here because now most of the topics created in the section whether it's about the Bitcoin Discussion or the Trading or altcoin you will find the topics and questions asked by the Newbies if there is a question then you can find some useful insights by reading the feedbacks o the senior members.

I would say that if you want to learn in a better mode you should have to ask seniors, on your local board about the best topics created by the old members.. They can give you references to those threads and after reading a useful thread you can judge the topic by 100 views because there will so many comments on the thread and opinions by different users, This is what I like most about the forum. Its time taking but more efficient. In other way you can ask for the topics after getting engaged with he discussion on any thread, most of the times if senior finds the repitive topic they give the other references as well.

Enjoy you journey.

Welcome! to the largest Bitcoin community on earth.

Because many people are saying crypto is the future currency, as we have seen there's a country accept Bitcoin as legal tender, Blackrock accepting Bitcoin ETF, and any other centralized entity that started to invest in Bitcoin.

Currently there's no crypto hype, so I'm not really hear about people are talking a lot about crypto. Where is metaverse? seems like no one discuss it anymore.

Welcome to the forum, @OP. It's wise of you to have finally jolted out of your state of scepticism about Bitcoin because it's really one great asset that a lot of people are really investing their money in. It doesn't mean that Bitcoin is a get-rich-quick scheme, but it helps investors earn from it if they buy during the dip and hold until a bull market. Bitcoin investment is sometimes not really very profitable for those that chase after a short-term profit with Bitcoin, but if you keep accumulating your Bitcoin gradually and hold it for a long time, then you will make some significant profit, but that will also depend on the amount of funds that you invest. While you journey through the crypto space, make sure to also take the handling of your security seriously, unless you want to lose your asset. I believe you are aware that if you lose your asset, you can't get it back.

the hype will still come later, now a lot of FUD is coming out and that is the reason the crypto market is still bearish. there will be good news for crypto later, we just have to wait for the Halving to happen later, it will be a starter hype crypto starting to appear. Looking at the history of Bitcoin, you can be sure that during the previous halving, Bitcoin was successful in reaching its highest price and continued to grow. We are close and we must be ready.

Well I can see some folks here from Bangladesh still doing stuffs with Bitcoin. I believe Bangladesh still bans the usage of Bitcoin, but I am not sure these  times. Either way, it doesn't stop people from investing in Bitcoin since there are just plenty of ways to do it.
Crypto sites banned? People would just use VPN.
Government not allowing the hodling of crypto? People would still be able to personal trades.

I've been skeptical in the first day when I cleared my misconception about Bitcoin, but it's all going to be just fine if you start small. Kinda rids of the large risk, ey?

Welcome to the forum, OP by the way!

If it's truly restricted to transact and trade with crypto in you place, yet, you're still hearing lot's of buzz from your local people, I can only guess the laws aren't being enforced lol.

However, try to still look more into the the legality of cryptocurrencies in your place particularly about repercussions and decide if it sits right with you. There are ways to obfuscate tracks but that is something that needs to be learned and may not be beginner friendly depending on the extent.

OP, this is me welcoming you to the forum with a warm embrace 🤗. This is a nice place to learn Bitcoin and cryptos in general with ease if you're ready to commit to research. By the way, your moniker is suggestive of your nationality and I want to believe I'm right on this one. I don't know if your friend who introduced this forum to you also told you about the Nigeria local board. If they didn't and you're interested in meeting the rest of the gang, here's the Nigeria (Naija) (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=275.0) link. In addition, peruse the links user Cantsay sent you and read up on the rules governing this forum so you don't fall short of any. There are dire consequences for breaches. Once again, you're welcome o' compatriot.

Welcome to Bitcointalk.

You are in the right place to know more about Bitcoin. We are all beginners with much to learn about Bitcoin and others. And if Bitcoin is very well known in your area, your knowledge about Bitcoin should be more than theirs because you can get more knowledge from this forum.

And when you study later, you might find interesting things such as fraud that often occurs in the name of Bitcoin, even though the fraud has nothing to do with Bitcoin. You can explain this to your people especially if the investment program may have deceived people in your area.

It would be better to join a local group in your country to share with other friends. It will help to increase your knowledge about Bitcoin. And you can also learn to become a strong Bitcoin investor.
