Just like what you said flood is a natural disaster. Flood has been destroying peoples properties, crops, taking lives. For the past 3 years flood has been one of the major topic in my country, but have we thought of what we can do to prevent this flood.

I can still remember last year when my country experienced flooding, and it was very embarrassing, but governments maked sure the citizens are safe. People who properties were were destroyed, government provided a house, foams, free food stuffs at that time, but still yet people where not happy due to the destroying of properties.
Knowing the fact that flood is natural but it can be limited.
How can flooding be limited, constructing of rivers, drainage, canals, will limit the flood, by so doing the flood can flow to the drainage and canals.

Sometimes I see videos like I invested my money on this platform and I got 10×  profit, all those things na scam.
Me I don already talk am say na mumu dey fall for those things, free thing no dey anywhere, if you want 10× profit just work hard for it rather than investing your money on scammers
1063  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Vs Gold, land which better? on: October 17, 2023, 03:28:50 PM
Why forcing your parents to invest on bitcoin. I think you should educate them about bitcoin first before they can start investing, there's a saying knowledge is power, educating them about bitcoin gradually and I think they will have no choice to invest on bitcoin. Bitcoin has amazing features and you've made the right decision to invest on bitcoin.
I see no reason why people compare bitcoin and gold, both bitcoin and gold are different, bitcoin is valuable same goes for gold, people use bitcoin as an investment same for gold. But people trust gold more than bitcoin, I don't blame people who say gold is better than bitcoin, gold has been for years and decades but bitcoin has not been for years,
But I will perfer if you give them a better knowledge before they can start investing
1064  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / What do you think? Selling all or not on: October 16, 2023, 04:26:08 PM
Have seen a lot of threads talking about the bull market, and everyone making comments.
I don't think selling all bitcoin in the bull market is a good idea. Why? Knowing the fact that the next bull price will still come as bitcoin continues to grow, so I don't think selling all my bitcoin in the bull market is the best.
Everyone is holdle bitcoin in the bear market and planning to sell in the bull market, now, when finally, the bull market  comes should I sell all my bitcoins and prepare to accumulate from afresh in the next bear market again? or should I keep some percentage to continue the accumulation?
1065  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Knowledge vs hodlings on: October 16, 2023, 03:10:29 PM
I agree with the op that bitcoin is met for everybody, and those who are interested and invest in it become part of the technology, as Satoshi Nakamoto said he created bitcion for everybody and not for specific people and you can see what he said from the following image.

Source of the image is on the image
1066  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Christmas will be boring, if this bear market reach December 25th. on: October 16, 2023, 01:32:04 PM
Op any person wey dey invest for bitcoin suppose get another work, at least something doing. I fit dey invest for bit[Suspicious link removed]d that one no mean say I no go do other things. Secondly I no see anything wey concern bitcoin and xmas.
Xmas celebration na wetin dey right from start and people dey celebrate am good or bad, because that day na celebration day. You dey talk about bitcoin price for xmas what about government workers wey no dey receive salary, sometimes the xmas celebration go pass before salary go come, and them still dey celebrate am.
The best advice for bitcoin investors be say make them just dey patient.
1067  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Give Bitcoin investment time on: October 16, 2023, 12:40:56 PM
I don't think any person should force someone to start investing on bitcoin without the person having any knowledge about bitcoin. I think this is where the problem is coming from , most people lack the knowledge about bitcoin and they just start investing or sometimes most people don't have a guide to guide them about bitcoin investment. The first thing someone will know about bitcoin investment before investing is bitcoin is not a scheme you go in and make money quick but rather beening patient and investing properly, that should be the first thing a bitcoin investor should know.
I see some comments saying. Secondly before investing on bitcoin the person is not suppose to be depending only on bitcoin. Bitcoin can't be your only investment.
1068  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why Bitcoin is different from other means of investment on: October 15, 2023, 08:06:48 PM
Talking about the real estate investment, knowing fully well that the loss of the property is very painful , but government will not just demolish a building just like that so there's something wrong, I will prefer if you drop the link of what happened and how it started. But before owning a property especially a building terms and conditions are involved. I can still remember in my community when my state government sent police to destroy peoples properties (house) just because the houses was close to the road. The fact is both real estate investment and bitcoin investment are risky and still have advantage.
You can't force someone to love bitcoin investment, so I don't see any reason why people argue about real estate and bitcoin investment because it sounds funny sometimes. What's the purpose of bitcoin? Bitcoin is just a digital asset while real estate investment consist of land and building, both with there advantages and disadvantages
1069  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it easy to trust someone? on: October 15, 2023, 05:01:39 PM
The word trust is the central topic here, when involving trust it has to do with an important thing, and you mentioned seed phrase and your using ATM pin as an example. I will not say I trust someone 100% because anyone can change at any time from my past experience. Trust me the world is so wild, so when involving seed phrase and ATM pin I can trust my family member 95%, most of my family members knows my ATM pin and have not experience any form of scam. Knowing who to trust matters alot. But when it comes to friends I don't give a damn about trust. But the fact here is trust someone at your own risk. But I will prefer keeping my seed phrase as a secret
1070  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: It seems multitasking is the only way out of poverty on: October 15, 2023, 03:55:01 PM
Hustle na hustle oh, any man wey dey naija wey no hustle no fit make am. But hustle suppose get limit sha.
Just like wetin you talk person dey do bolt driving, secondary school teaching, shuu all this work for one person. Although all this work no one relate at all, na stress the person dey stress himself.
The best advice wey I fit give for this kind matter, any person wey dey hustle make the person find multi_business with style just like teaching, why I mention teaching person fit dey teach for different schools like per_time and pay go still come from different angles, same goes for lecturing job. Secondly if the person dey good at agriculture person fit get poultry farm that deals with the rearing of birds, fish etc. Wetin I dey try talk be say make the person find work wey dey related and money go still come.
And you con dey talk about health and na because of this stress lifespan dey short but that's not all
One thing Nigerians need to look into is stress management, some people wey dey hustle don forget say stress dey kill all in the name of money. Forgetting that no one can meet his/her needs at once. You mentioned increasing salary good am in support of that but needs go still dey limitless, that's just the truth. Secondly lack of monthly check up, as na naija we dey everything na common thing. Sometimes if I may ask people wey dey involve for this multi business them no dey do check up to check their health, na just money and work dey their mind and that very bad. Lack of check up and treatment sef fit shorten life span.
1071  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Will Nigerians Marketers Accept Bitcoin if Legalized on: October 12, 2023, 07:18:22 PM
Have been wondering if Nigeria government makes bitcoin legalized, and if he does, will our marketers/traders accept bitcoin as exchange for buying of goods. Me I know naija very well, if government talk A we the citizens fit do B, na normal thing for naija. So we have been talking about bitcoin and the government gave deaf ear, but if government finally legalize bitcoin will our marketers accept bitcoin?
From my paspective our marketers will not accept bitcoin as there currency.
  • just like what have been saying we live in a digital dispensation and bitcoin has also contributed to our technology world today. And most of our marketers are not well educated about bitcoin, before owning bitcoin the person must have a knowledge about bitcoin, secondly bitcoin has to do with phones and Internet, traders in market will say they don't have android phones. And those business women will tell you straight to your face that they need fiat, some will tell you say them no go school. Just like wetin I talk when government talk A citizens go do B. I even remember last time wey our former president change the old currency and when I took the new naira note to the market, most traders rejected the money that the money looks fake and they will not accept the new naira note.
  • scam: most traders for naija don decide say anything associated with phone and transfer na scam. Even some pos point no dey accept transfer, talkless of bitcoin.
  • even if government legalize bitcoin that does not mean government will not take taxes, marketers are entitled to pay their tax. Of course government will not accept bitcoin as there tax payment. Marketers pay taxes with fiat currency and not with bitcoin, so traders will say they cannot receive bitcoin as there payment and pay fiat to the government.
  • even pos systems does not accept bitcoin, most of our local traders doesn't have bank accounts, and when tranfering fiat currency we make use of the pos machine but how will it work if the pos machine doesn't have bitcoin or other cryptocurreny.
  • bitcoin payment has no refunds, when the coin has been mistakenly transfer to another address then it is gone.
1072  Economy / Economics / Marketing Strategies in the Digital Age on: October 12, 2023, 04:14:03 PM
    In our today world, where technology has taken over everywhere, people in marketing fields are benefiting from the digital world:
  • Marketers before had no means of marketing there goods and sales were limited, demand got limited. But now in a digital world marketers now have the opportunity to market there goods around the globe, with the help of advertisement using the television, radio programmes, newspaper, magazines,billboards.
         And with the emergence of block chain technology different platforms are created to enhance the digital marketing. With the help of the modern television we now see different kinds of product being marketed online. With the help of modern technologies today online vendors deliver nation wide.
    Back in the analog era marketers find it very difficult to market there goods. Marketers made used of the outdoor advertising, where marketers walk from door to door advertising their goods and product but the technology world has made things easy for marketers.
  • Tokinomo interactive robots: the marketing robot, brands now use robot to advertise their products. The purpose of this tokinomo robot is to communicate with customers, informing customers about the product, instead of the competitor doing the talking just let tokinimo do the talking.http://sharevideo1.com/v/WlAxakEtSDZBa28=?t=ytb&f=co
  • the digital world has made things easy for customers also. I believe there was no money transfer at that time, people made use of their legs (walking) for payment after buying a product. But now customers use digital forms of payment such as flutterwaves, paypal, Bitcoin for international payment. Now the world have a digital currency which can be transfer globally (bitcoin)
  Finally: with the new technology, you pay goods on delivery, and the company carrier will deliver to you on your door step. With the pay on delivery, the scamming rate will reduce, because people have been scammed by the fake sellers online in the payment before delivery system.

1073  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: cooking gas now 1000-1200 per kg on: October 11, 2023, 07:57:23 PM
For me naija don tire me, make I first start with this fuel subsidy matter. Sometimes I no blame government because naija wicked. Why I say naija wicked, why fuel price go just dey add money like that. Make we ask well oh, I still remember that inauguration day, president Tinubu sworning in ceremony he make different speech and the moment president Tinubu talk about the removal of fuel subsidy, from that moment na fuel price start to increase, for my area that afternoon after the inauguration ceremony na fuel price start to add money, just that afternoon fuel price add 210. Fuel price start to increase just because of fuel subsidy removal something wey former president buhari be dey do why price of fuel no increase that time. So I don observe say na filling station managers dey steal this money just because the person wey them want no enter sit.
Secondly you come dey talk about gas price say gas price don add money, ever since na I no support this gas generator. Why? Anytime I see this gas generator I no dey get peace of mind, secondly as everybody dey turn there generator carburetor to gas why the price of gas no go increase. Because I remember when this fuel price increase gas price was very cheap #650. One thing about marketing ehhn once the demand increase the price go increase
Talking about the new invention, hmmm I just dey speechless because na anywhere belle face na be front.
1074  Local / Politics and society (Naija) / Re: Oyibo man call am tribalism on: October 11, 2023, 01:48:03 PM
My country people I dy greet oo,
Good evening inside this evening,

I want tlk about one serious issue wey dy bring us backward for our country wey be na my brother na my brother, oyibo man call am tribalism.
True true for this country we dy go back because we we know people we dy capable to do most of the jobs for we country, but base on say him no from my place, we no go give am the job, we go come give less qualify person we go do nonsense wrk, or person wey no know anything about the job base on say na ur brother.
Am

Make we take our presidency as example now, during election time in 2015, we know say buhari na less qualify candidate, but because we dy do brother brother, we vote am in, him come later dy show us shege.
Early this year, we know say jagabam na less qualify candidate due to health reason and intellectual capacity, but because of tribalism, na south South turn, we still put am for power, now him dy show us snr level of shege.
All this na north turn, na South turn, e don tire me, we sopos dy more concern about who go fit do the work well, no be brother brother tins.
After all this man no man tins, wen tins do go ugly, we go start to dy cry as if to say we do the right thing we go cry.
My country people how ona see this wahala we dy inside so?
Op you dey make mistake, one thing wey I know for this election matter na who get power dey win election, Nigeria election system just tire me, who no rig election no go dey for power, so if na peoples choice them dey look Tinubu no suppose dey seat. Na corruption and bribery nigerian politicians dey use enter seat. Just like wetin you talk, people dey wey vote for Buhari ohh but no say na everybody vote for buhari or president Tinubu.
Secondly I never see any better person wey go fit rule naija well, all this peter obi and Atiku we dey talk about nothing come out.
And lastly you dey talk about north turn, south turn. Make I choke you na still the south people na no want power to come south, for example make we see wetin happen to Wike na still south governors betray am carry the flag barrier give Atiku.
So for now naija never ready for a better Nigeria
1075  Economy / Economics / Re: Fast Transportation Makes Economic Turnover Faster on: October 11, 2023, 01:20:26 PM
I watched it on a news report here, and when I saw it, I was amazed, but I was also concerned from another angle. Yes, the delivery time will be accelerated, but it is dangerous for the delivery person.

Why did I say that? because if, for example, there is a technical problem while he is in the air, it can be a wick or the cause of the skyrider's death. Because of course it's a machine, we can't say when it will suddenly have a technical problem. So that job is also quite dangerous, to be honest.
In like this, the delivery person should be careful because anything can happen at any time.
When I first watched the video I was surprised and I was like this is very risky, despite the advantage, making transportation fast and easy. I excepted the jet to have a protection, like a shield. The jet is too exposed for my liking
1076  Economy / Economics / Re: The future of Farming. on: October 11, 2023, 09:12:06 AM
Land has been one of the factor affecting farming system in my area, in area the want of land has been increasing, no land but we have labourers. And also the sale of land is very expensive so not everyone can afford buying a land, both in rural and urban center suffers from this.
But you didn't mention the major factor affecting agriculture, in my country the major factor affecting agriculture is flooding. This flood comes every year and destroys peoples crop and food and destroys poultry farm, and the sales of food becomes expensive
1077  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: Nigerian street pranks and its effect. on: October 10, 2023, 10:24:33 PM
As content creation gains popularity and people start making it big from YouTube/ Facebook monetization, content creators are becoming increasingly desperate and are willing to do any content to gain followers.

Pranking people on the street has become a common order with no consideration of the victim's emotional/psychological state of mind.

While we watch these videos and enjoy the entertainment part of it, some of the people pranked are left emotionally drained, some relationship/ couples trust has broken because they were pranked to check there faithfulness to each other and some people have lost so much useful information from there phone because a popular prankster smatched it on the ground and gives the victim a new one, not considering some important information in the phone that might be lost in the process.

Of course, some of these guys have landed themselves in trouble because they pranked the wrong person but others are yet to learn there lessons.

Entertainment is not bad, as a matter of fact I enjoy watching them alot but when you ridicule or take advantage of the ignorance of others just to create your content, it becomes a problem.


All this skit makers wey dey do all this prank stuffs no get sense, I understand say them dey make people laugh but water dey pass garri oh, me I sabi watch all this prank videos because e dey make me laugh but I no go allow any person try am with me. Why I say this skit makers wey dey do prank mumu, just go YouTube search for untouchable comedy watch, you go see her thunder strike am to show say this comedians dey risk their lives.
I believe say them dey do all this prank just to gain followers and na very mumu something.

But come to think of this matter people wicked ohh, why person go work from morning till night with this kind pay wahala, bambu go work money go chop, naija tire me oh. Na why I no like to work under person, na for this kind case I go advice the person to learn handwork or skill.

If government create jobs for people wey dey involve for this bunkery nobody go steal the oil again because the work dey risky, just like wetin you talk say this illegal business don make some criminals to stop involving in social crimes and na true, sometimes wetin this boys dey find na money.

Hodl Bitcoin in times of war is the best, the fact is you're protecting your asset because in times of war anything can happen, maybe the burning of banks or the burning of houses or maybe banks shutdown and such shutdown may lead to breakdown of physical asset. But I don't see Bitcoin fight against inflation in times of war.
