A new phone can help her to type her posts better and it can be used as one of device to store his bitcoin with Electrum wallet or as a co-signer for her wallet.

I want to also add that i just ranked up to the member rank.

But to my own point here my fello Nigerians, abeg, on no
accounts of problems at hand way go make u sell ur BTC or any coins at any auction price way no from ur mind due to a current Financial problem.


 Omor bro the way you talk am e nor simple like that oo, Oyibo say "it is easier said than done" if to say you dey the shoes of that guy you nor for reason all this one oo, I no say normally dem dey advise say make you nor put money wey go affect you financially should in case the market turn upside down, but the truth na be say by the time you don dey practice DCA dey put small small money for the coin before you go know e don turn big money, and before the guy invest na something give am money maybe en be dey work, and if u read well the guy say na borrow e been dey borrow even wen e get BTC for aza, to me at this point e no get anything wey you fit do again than to sell.

I pray make we always live to witness and sells our BTC or alt coins by ourselves without being on pressures.

AMEN

Now on a serious note first of all do not flaunt your asset on online platforms like this keep your anonymity

If it is not necessary, you do not have to show the public the amount of bitcoin or coins that you bought. One of the first rules about cryptocurrencies is to never show the public your coins.

If you are anonymous on this forum and no Nigerian know who you are, that is fine. But if you are not anonymous, hide your coins. This is a small amount but in case of next time.

I don't think you should publish an image of the exact amount of bitcoin you bought

Image has been deleted, thanks for understanding the cause of such risky mistake and your concrete love and advise, I feel more excited knowing that I have been welcomed by my fellow bitcoin holder. Cheesy

Hello guys congratulation to me, I just purchased my first  bitcoin, it really feels good knowing that it's one of the best decision I've made so far, I am proud of myself even if the start up amount is small, I hope to add to it consistently by the end of every month. I purchased the coin on an exchange but am looking forward to buy a Trezor hardware wallet for my coin storage.

I can't even express how exited I am, even if this is just the first phase, I believe the amount of knowledge I have accumulated about bitcoin through this forum will strengthened my emotion not to panic when the market goes bearish.

Thanks guy for your support, advice and wonderful opinion.

1426  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: NA ONLY YOU FIT HELP YOURSELF on: September 12, 2023, 03:49:35 PM
Op na better advice nai you give for here, the misuse of drugs for we country this passed few year nor be small, the wey our youth don carry drugs for head dey shock me especially all these boyz wey dey press, if you ask some of them dem go tell you say e dey help reduce depression but na lie rather e dey help dem reduce their life span but dem nor know. I don try tire to advise some people wey dey into drugs for my area but the response I dey get na "bro na just time e go take I go soon stop" las las dem still dey do am dey go.
Make we use this picture take observe the cost of body organs, the price dem no be small money, so person wey be drug addict dey destroy one or more of em organ small small.



According to the wey Oyibo define drugs, dem say na anything wey we take into our body system wey nor be food, and one of the most popular abuse wey dey go on for very long time till now naim be :

Alcohol addiction: the wey people take dey abuse alcohol for we country no be small oo, sotay  almost every community go get one strong alcohol addict, and dem dey forget say na kidney for the body dey remove waste and by the time you drink too much e go fit lead to kidney failure, blood pressure,heart disease, liver failure etc

Smoking: normally even for cigar packet dem write say smokers are liable to die young, wen person don too smoke before you go know e don get lungs cancer, and wen u nor get money to treat am na death be that oo


I would also advise medical practitioners to refrain from providing patients with controlled drugs, as it can unintentionally introduce them to addiction.

Just as your case be, severe pains after surgery naim doctors dey recommend some of these hard drugs to their patients, so if dem stop am how dem wan use take calm those wey dey undergo serious pains?, even before surgery the drugs wey dem dey use make the patients fall into deep sleep na hard drug but if  dem stop am, no more surgeries.


Do we have rehabilitation centers for cases like this in every state?"

I nor know about other states but for my state we get doctors wey dey offer rehabilitation.
1427  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Investment or Fx on: September 12, 2023, 09:13:54 AM
Though FX trading na still investment oo but with the information wey you bring come about the two of them, me I go take investment oo, because I see the risk for forex high pass the crypto investment especially when we dey talk about the Ogah of dem all "BITCOIN" and some other legit coins like Ethereum, reason I say so forex na more of short term holding and if you go greedy somehow you go lost well well, unlike those baba dem wey dey hold bitcoin since 2012, their account go just dey green anyhow by now.

Though investment own nor good for body oo, you fit go purchase large amount of one shitcoin and by the end of the day the coin fit go crash, all your money gone. But the time consumed and expense of learning forex no be chaise, you nor go fit compare to normal crypto investment, I don hear on people wey dey offer forex trading for half a million some self say na $500, but you see crypto investment, only this forum self don guide me until I buy my first bitcoin( investment don start).

And one of the thing wey make me nor too like forex na the amount of forex traders wey I get as friends, some of dem nor dey learn am well before dem dive into am, and before you know dem don dey go buy signals from telegram group wey go still make dem loss. One of dem when en check en yearly transaction en discover say e don loss upto $23,000 live, so when I dey hear all this kind things e dey discourage me.

The main reason I take investment sef na because the coin wey I dey invest on na very promising coin wey e no get as e wan be Bitcoin must rise because of many factor eg scarcity.

1429  Other / Beginners & Help / My decision on bitcoin on: September 08, 2023, 07:25:21 AM
I recently created a post asking if I should buy bitcoin now or wait for the dip, and majority of the response I got from the post, advised that I should buy now rather than waiting for the dip due to its volatile nature, and I'm satisfied with this response and I'm willing to bear the risk.
Reason for all these questioning, I have a dream of becoming a long term bitcoin holder but, dreams aren't achieved with words alone, an action is needed for the start up, so I have decided to sell one of my less used phone for the purpose of buying bitcoin.
I'm really eager to purchase my first bitcoin in satoshi.

1431  Other / Beginners & Help / Which is safest wallet for bitcoin long term holding? on: September 06, 2023, 08:00:50 AM
Hello guys with several wallets out there, I want to be sure make the right choice, because I have seen posts were members of this forum are complaining about some wallets and exchanges because of their unprofessional behavior.
So my question is, apart from electrum wallet which other wallet is the safest for long term holding of bitcoin?.

With the current reduction of price in Bitcoin, is it the best time to buy bitcoin or should I still wait for the dip?.
Though I have seen some post talking about "buy now or wait for the dip" but the debating answers got me confused, so I need the final clarity from you guys.
1432  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: How to strengthen our own Naira against other currencies on: September 05, 2023, 09:34:40 PM
Bro make I no lie u eh, the country itself nor want the value of the naira to increase, because we dey benefit from am, all the guys wey I know wey dey into investment and trading dey pray make the currency devalue more and more, same wey wen I believe say even the federal level self want am to dey like this, because currently now one barrel of crude oil na $91 and Nigeria dey produce upto  1.9 million barrel per day, and we know how the naira to dollar conversion dey increase.

So brother, make we nor suffer ourself or disturb ourself for this matter, reason I say so, for the federal government to dey calm make you know say e dey benefit dem and us as citizens in numerous ways, the only side I see say e dey affect us badly naim be for our import market.
1433  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Arbitraging of BinanceP2P. What do you think? on: September 01, 2023, 01:09:55 PM
Omor which kind offer be this?, Wattin this people dey up to?, see as binance use this offer take disrespect kucoin rates, if to say binance nor dey verified due to some reasons I for say na ponzi be this, because the difference from the rates alone na blast, though na advertising strategy to draw more customer wey go give dem more profit but the deal too dey massive for eye.
1434  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Report quality posts on: September 01, 2023, 09:25:46 AM

For those who have already submitted an application and the number of posts is not up to the 10 maximum required limit, it will also go a long way if you can still add posts of other members that you think are worth meriting, as not everyone will have the privilege of coming across the thread and doing a self-report. So IMO, it will be nice if we can also add the posts of others from our local board here.

Nwada001 I appreciate your selfless speech, e show say u na correct guy and you really care for the local board progress, but I wan add one tin make we nor forget the rule wey say
Quote
You can participate once per month, if you repeat the participation more than once per month, added links will be deleted and you may get neutral trust.

Make we take note of this one oo, e fit scatter the future of your account oo, wen once you don get that neutral trust my brother, dem ho look you like spammer oo.
So those wey their post don reach 10 make ona lock up till next month oo, na beg I dey beg ona oo.

5 Resources to teach Average Joe about Bitcoin

Pidgin Translation by Makus : 5 Resources to teach ordinary person about Bitcoin
1437  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / 5 Resources to use take teach ordinary person about bitcoin on: August 28, 2023, 10:43:49 PM
    Original Topic: 5 Resources to teach Average Joe about Bitcoin
    Author : fillippone




    Sometimes I dey see my self for places where I go answer this question:
    "I hear about this Bitcoin stuff, how I fit take buy am?"

    If at all, I nor dey like to take anyhow risk, and to buy Bitcoin wey person never know the coco wey dey inside, e  be like all those "investment wey person nor no anything for inside" and that one na sure plug to loss all your money.

    So I want mama dem/ordinary people to no how this Bitcoin dey work, before dem shook body put to go buy am.
    The problem na be say to explain this Bitcoin dey somehow hard; Bitcoin for crossroad to cryptography, Economic and Monetary theory, Game theory, Computer networking and data transmission. To know one of this field dem no only dey hard, but e also dey bias ur explanation, and e fit scatter the whole  explaining. (If I know plenty things about cryptography, I go use am to finish work for this side, but e nor dey 100% say e go trigger my counter part


    I wan post collection of better 5 resources (articles, videos, Twitter account, portals, ...just like that) so that people wey wan turn investors fit learn from.

    Na the list be this.
    My mind for this post na to dey update am continuously wen new materials dem come on board based on wattin ona want:

    • Lopp.net Bitcoin information & Resources
      This na collection of Bitcoin resources, from the starting wey dem dey read (white paper) to the once wey advance and hard, both written article and viseos/animation wey na from Jameson Lopp, professional cypherpunk ( abeg obverse well say na cypherpunk, no be cypberpunk)

    • Bitcoin for Beginners
      This na videos wey dey introduce Bitcoin by Andreas Antonopoulos, wey dey talk about another part of Bitcoin, wattin e be, how person fit take buy am, and how we fit store am...


    • The Bitcoin Standard: The Decentralized Alternative to Central Banking
      This one sweet well well to read, e nor dey hard and e nor dey too related to Bitcoin fully, if you nor fall in love with Bitcoin after u read this one nai be say, Bitcoin nor be for you be that.
      Quote
      as Bitcoin just dey show case face for this new computer age, the problems wey e fit solve old reach human society, that means e many well well: to transfer value from time and space. Ammous dey carry the reader mind for journey wey concern the history of tins wey don act as money for exchange,from the beginning wen dem dey trade limestone and seashell for metal, for coins, for gold, and nowadays government debt. if we look wattin give this all these tins dem the coco wey dem use dem as money, and how people dey loss dem, e dey give the reader the idea of wattin make dem fit dey like money, and e con arrange ground for economic discussion wey concern how the future of individual and the society wan be, including capital accumulation, trade, peace, culture, and art.
      To confirm the tori, Ammous still con show say no be by mistake wey societies wen human being don develop well well get better and stable money economy, or no be mistake say society wey economy don fall their civilization sef dey fall follow am.

    • BitcoinTalk.org Forum
      This one suppose to dey used to you, but I believe say if you don read the other 4 resources you suppose don ready to go into the Rabbit Hole [WARNING! TIME DEY SINK OO].


    This syde na other materials wey nor follow order, I put am because of the comment dem :






    • Binance Academy
      Na better videos and article wey dem explain well nai dey here for beginners so that dem go understand all the tins wey dey for cryptocurrency and trading.

    • Bitcoin for safety
      U need this one to know why you still need Bitcoin even wen e nor pure for your eye


    • The Dos and Don'ts for Bitcoin Key Management
      Quote
      Bitcoin dey give end users the ability and power for dem to use their own hand control their money. U fit don hear this word before "be ur own bank" this word dey explain the kind of power wey Bitcoin users get over their coin. Just that the bad syde na be say for you to be ur own bank responsibilities dem many. The same tin wey make Bitcoin get value (permissionlessness, censorship resistance, seizure resistance, etc.), naim still make am dey attractive for hacker. These hackers don com with plenty traps wey dem go use take fool Bitcoin users to thief their money, so that Bitcoin go come dey look unsafe. But nor forget say the internet na dangerous place oo, but we get the tools wey we go use take protect our self!

    1438  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Please Be Careful With Binance/Others P2p on: August 24, 2023, 03:51:11 PM
    Yes that is true, but there was a time Binance has released my coins for a buyer because I didn't release the coins for the buyer. On that faithful day, after placing the order, I slept off and the lady called me to release the coins because I dropped my contact on the chat box, and reported me so Binance made a request from her site and she sent them the screenshot, so they released the coins for her and dropped a very big bogus written note for me to read. Men I read only the first paragraph and I became tired. And since they have already released the coins, I only called the lady back and apologized and she accepted my apology.
    Binance ask the woman for payment screenshot or statement of account? Before the coin can be released for the women, that means Binance has seen evidence that the women paid the money. I do not think screenshot can easily give that without doubt, but if the woman downloaded her statement of account and send it fast, that is still better of a valid evidence than a screenshot that can be easily manipulated.

    Wow, so binance can actually complete a trade without the permission of the person holding back, I'm impressed.
    Please I have a question, what if after the report by the lady and providing transaction evidence, binance try to reverse the transaction but the money has already been withdrawn by the other business partner

    when speaking is more advanced then when writing, when writing we can mix some english in-between the pidgin but when speaking we just go with the flow.
    @CryptopreneurBrainboss I like how u explained the pidgin language, it gives me joy, u know one can not effectively explain all his emotions  in writing but when speaking, the feeling is different.
