I understand the fact about what you are stating but it depends on the kind of contract that is being given to you and the calibre of person or organization because my dad was awarded a contract by an oil company in my state before and  he was given a work order and the description of the quality they want the job to be then they reached an agreement that he would be paid after the job have been executed and inspected so he went and borrowed money from a cooperative organization and did the job perfectly so after the company paid him the agreed amount for the job they also added a thank you bonus (extra money) for doing the job to their standards he then repaid the cooperative he borrowed the money from and had some good profits left with him.

What am trying to say here is that you can't just accept a contract that you don't know the capacity of the company or the individual awarding the contract to you and when doing a job for a company or an organization you have to do it to the best standard so that if such a contract becomes available in the future again they can still award same contract to you.

Another thing you need to understand is that life is about risks so when you see some risk that there is every possibility of making profits if you borrow money, do it, if it works you claim the glory and if it also doesn't work you bear the brunt and move on even if it will be hard for you to recover at that material time. If you don't take some certain risks in life you may be stagnant and may not experience any positive growth in life.

You really tried in giving a concise explanation to him and just like you said whether anyone chooses to make investments or not there will always be times when things will be rough and difficult or a time when your earnings may not be coming as before that is why we have to plan with the little we have because the main reasons why we are making these investments is to have an easy way in the future when things may not really be working as it use to.

People should have this mentality of forgetting about any amount they used for investment within the short run and be more concerned about how to increase their earnings in order to back up their investments because if you don't remove your mind from your investments, you will keep on having access to use it all the time and before you know it, all your holdings are gone which is a very wrong approach during investments. I used to set an amount that stand as the least I can get like if I have like $500 in my account I do feel like am broke and I don't touch the money except I have been able to get a way of earning again, I prefer borrowing from friends than touch that amount that I have kept for future purposes so that is also same way investments should be followed and bitcoin investment is something that has every possibility of gaining in the long run so halving a reserved and emergency funds to back up your investment in order not to touch your holdings is important.

There is no good trader anywhere even though they make profits most of the time but some times they run into serious losses and recovers again and keep on trading. Basically trading is a game of emotions and if your emotions is not that strong never enter into trading at all so that you don't get severe heart injury as a result from shock you could experience sometimes why trading and you encountered losses. Buy, accumulate and Hodl Bitcoin and be free without having to make checks at every intervals waiting for or using signals of which some are even misleading.

Basically i don't keep my browsing history for too long because it slows down the effectiveness of the browser so after leaving my browsing history for like a week or two I do clear everything off including my passwords, cookies and cache and when I do that the browser becomes fast again. Don't think there's any need to leave the numerous past browsing history, if you open a page and you wish to access it later on in the future bookmarking it is the best way or to just save the page and access it whenever you want to instead of leaving the browsing history without clearing them off.

Making friends online is not a bad idea if they are productive and also involves themselves in productive stuffs online but you should be careful with the kind of friends you make online because some can disguise as good people just to earn your trust in them and when they find out that you truly trust them, they will do you unimaginable things and since they are just your friends online they can decide to cut communication with you and you will regret it all your life so never trust people you meet online except you have met them facially with a convincible character that they possess and you will take your time to scrutinize them and know the kind of person they are before trusting them.

Joselu have just scored the winner for Real Madrid to make it a brace for him this night, what am epic match, Bayern Munich players will really cry in this loss because imagine winning all the way from 68th minutes to 88th minutes and Joselu just broke the heart of Bayern Munich. Such an unfortunate night for Bayern Munich because they almost felt that they have qualified for the finals only for Joselu to end their dream within an interval of 3 minutes, the first was 88th minutes while the second goal was 90+1 minutes this is really hard for Bayern Munich to bear but they need to accept the outcome of the game.

I also believe that CBN is the major threat to cryptocurrency now because they are the ones feeding the Federal government that crypto transactions are the cause of Naira devaluation but if a bill can be passed to supercede that of the CBN which I still feel it will be impossible because the CBN are working in alliance with the federal government so such bill may not be passed.

The CBN moving to give FINTECH directives not to allow their customers perform crypto transactions is laughable because just like I said in the other thread that Nigerians in the crypto industry have grown to a length that the decision of the government cannot really hinder everyone from performing crypto related transactions.

We all already knew that the naira have been going through manipulation by the federal government for a long time now but making look like crypto transactions is the cause of Naira devaluation is just nothing but making a case where there is no case.

Dortmund caught everyone by surprise yesterday after they made judicious use of their opportunity and scored but on a serious note, Damn PSG was very unfortunate in their returning leg against Dortmund because you can imagine those too many times the ball hit on the woodwork that was really a terrific moment for PSG because they actually played their best but at last they ran out of luck and were defeated by Dortmund both home and away. This is the happiest moments for Dortmund because they are not going to feel too bad that they didn't perform too well in the Bundesliga. Dortmund don't have that concrete defense but I was shocked to see their defensive midfield trying their possible best to defend after they succeeded in scoring PSG. Congratulations to Borussia Dortmund for being the first team to make it to the UCL finals this season.

You have given an accurate answer here because licensed or not doesn't deprive a platform to perform KYC on their customers because KYC is also what gives their customers the benefit of doubt that they are not some kind of scam site and boost customer's confidence to know that their personal information is in their database in a case of fraud or scam, it can be traceable more especially if it involves a huge fraud. However centralized exchanges can still be traced by the government if they want to, though it still requires some kind of authorization by the government to collate the information of the citizens of a country that are using their platform so that they don't infringe the privacy of those individuals without the government knowing after all it's the government that have the data of the various documents and personal information used to undergo KYC. This will also help in a case of forging KYC documents the government can step in and do an authentic verification.

I actually don't want to involve myself in an argument with you all am saying is for you to be careful at your own detriment because checking at the time frame between which you make the posts doesn't show any sign that it is a browser error even if it is you have to consider installing a new browser to avoid future reoccurrence. My candid advice and it's for your own good and to avoid your account being tagged.

I have seen you do something like this before and I thought it was a mistake or some network error from your browser but you making a repetition here makes it obvious that it is a deliberate act and I don't know the reason why you choose to reserve this space but I urge you to desist from this act.

Saying we have achieved a new ATH of 2024 makes it looks like ATH is created every year but I want us to understand something, the market is determined by itself whether the price of Bitcoin will soar high or reduce and it is the price movement that will lead to creating a new ATH and since there is no much investors coming in makes the market to look stagnant and revolving within some price limits and falls. Even if the approval of Bitcoin spot ETFs made bitcoin achieve a new ATH before the halving but yet another new ATH may not be created again till after the bull market so there is no need to hope on Bitcoin reaching a new ATH again as you can just HODL your Bitcoin whether a new ATH comes or not but since your plan is to hold for a long term.

This is what happens when a team is overrated and the other underrated because everyone was thinking that PSG will also be lucky as they were when they met Barcelona but Borussia Dortmund proved them wrong and silenced them and moved to the finals of the champions league, I like what happened in tonight's game so that some people will stop overrating a particular club simply because they have more experienced and quality players than the other. Congratulations to Borussia Dortmund for making it to the finals, they fought so hard for this and their efforts didn't just go in vain.

Most newbies are always enticed into trading even when they don't have adequate knowledge of what trading is all about even with the demo account you talked about, it is just simply the more you look the less you see because the trading may not actually work same way as when using the demo account and when doing the real trading with some money.
Trading drains time and the mental health of traders because it's not easy to always monitor the market and to get the right signals to know when to trade. I don't discourage anyone who is into trading if you know the right strategy to follow to make some profits while trading but I prefer hodling to trading because you just invest and leave your investment for a period of time when you must have gotten some profits and can decide to sell.

At first this forum is just a place where we come to share our individual experiences about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency with one another regardless of the fact that people earn here through signature campaigns but that doesn't mean we should not be committed to other physical activities that will earn us a living and in life you have to program yourself such that you will have time for every of your life activities either online or offline. There are some users here that comes to the forum within a particular period of time each day and apart from that time you will never see them online which means they are using those time they are not online to do some other things in their real life or on some other things online but may not be on the forum.

As a beginner, no matter how quality your posts are you shouldn't be thinking about merit yet instead you should be thinking of how to acquire knowledge from people who have been active and exposed about the forum and the discussions going on. You can also ask questions where necessary but not ecstatic questions.

Basically people tends to come closer to you when you have money go give out or if they find out that you are kind of generous and they will want to take advantage of your generosity but if they find out that you are not as generous as you used to be, they begin to withdraw coming close to you and this is very common among human like when things are going well with you every one draws near to you but when things are not going too well with you they will forget your kindness when you had enough that is why you should take good care of yourself and family because they are the people that matters most in your life. And moreover, doing things without others noticing or knowing about how you're doing is very good instead always wanting to show off one's assets or wealth just to attract prestige and respect from others is not necessary at all.

Though we can't hodl forever but when we consider the blocks remaining for the last bitcoins to be mined, investment more one Bitcoin will be more preferable than any other real life projects because one can basically sell part of his Bitcoin after recording huge profits in the long run and still continue by DCA to acquire more Bitcoins or better still wait for a dip to lump sum and HODL.

I don't mean that investing on real life projects just like the ones you mentioned is bad but while we are making investments we should be able to make sure that they are projects that is worth our efforts and money not some kind of projects that will collapse along the line.

I use to tell people that Nigerians have grown pass where the decision of the government will affect everybody because a lot of people know alternative to maneuver dey do things without the government knowing or even if they know they can't do anything so if they like let them shutdown all the whole crypto exchange platforms there will always be a way out.

I also see some contradictions in his write up but to make it clear to OP violence shouldn't be the best option to peace in the society. I know that there are times when the only way peace can be restored in some certain situations is through violence especially in a state where no one wants to listen to each other yet I still do not see violence as a way of dialogue. People can actually settle their differences without resulting to violence because even if they choose to go in a violent way, a lot of things will be affected in the process and may not be restored back again after a dialogue so that is why it is not ideal to make violence as a way of restoring order in the society.

Just like you stated, violence results to negativity even after the parties in question must have settled their differences but the scare it will live can last for a lifetime that is why we should not result to violence because it causes some irreparable damages.

You see that is the reason why we shouldn't have short term mindset in the first place because even though you switched to HODL for long term due to the fact that your short term objective was countered because the price fell after you bought with the hope that the price will skyrocket immediately after buying, it's obvious you had a short term target and forgot that Bitcoin is a volatile asset that it's price can either fluctuate upwards or downwards at a particular period of time and i still put it to you that even though you diverted to a long term hodling, if the price skyrockets past the price you bought initially you will still have that feeling of selling because you may still be afraid of another dip again.

In a nutshell, what am trying to define is that we shouldn't have a short term mindset when investing in Bitcoin because even if you choose to divert to long term hodling, i doubt if you can be patient enough to allow your investment to have a good path because at some point you will still feel like selling after realizing some little profit so that is what short term investors does, it is better to have that long term goal so that you can allow your investment to grow enough before you can think of selling part of your Bitcoin if need be.
