It's good to diversify in cryptocurrency, because there are many options to choose from, only you'd have to do your investigations about any coin that you intend to put your hard earned money into. Despite the many cryptocurrencies in the crypto market, I have very limited options to choose from, the number one is their undeniable king, Bitcoin, then top altcoins like Ethereum, never new projects, despite their huge promises of ROI on a short term. Maybe I'll diversify into new projects one day, but I'd have to tell myself the truth that I'm gambling my money.

I'm certainly with you on this, I will not like to complicate myself with a technology that we don't know what it's implications will be in the future, hopefully I grow old in sound health, I'll not be needing to experiment my mind with something that an external control can use manipulate me. Neural implants can be useful for people who have serious and life threatening medical conditions, where their only chance of survival is having an implant, it think that it should only be used for such cases.

I sympathize with OP that said that he sometimes experience memory lose, I hope it doesn't degenerate to the level of needing neural implant, but if that's what it'll to retain your memory, then there's no choice but to go for it. Although I'll advise him to carry out a thorough research before considering it as an option, because I just don't have a good feeling about it.

This is a discussion forum and I think that meaningful arguments can help to make us to see points from different perspectives, if we feel like somebody's points are misleading and we come out to correct the person, perhaps the person can present argument in a civil manner to prove their point. What really matters is matured argument where in the end a win win situation will be reached, and everybody in the thread will gain more knowledgeable from two perspectives. If maturity in the use of language is applied, then the argument is based on two different ways of seeing an issue, in the end we can apply one of the perspectives as an alternative option. But if an argument is baseless where a member is bent on having the upper hand in an argument, then it's best to simply ignore such comments and move on, we shouldn't let negative people's remarks to weigh us down.

You hit the nail for the head, as you talk am na so me I reason am, our government know say di cryptocurrency transactions wey de happen for di county de on di high side, and as CBN ban banks to de facilitate transactions, na im be say dem give chance for huge financial transactions to de happen without collecting dem own share.  Now wey CBN don lift di ban, na regulation go follow, dem go come introduce taxation for crypto matters now. So di ban wey dem lift na for dem own  benefits, because na now dem open eyes see say Bitcoin, na real source of income generation for dem purse.

Na very good news be dis because e go change di perceptions of many Nigerians wey think say Bitcoin de illegal for di country, and e go reduce or hopefully stop di harassment of law enforcement personals wey de harrass young guys wey say dem de trade Bitcoin. People go come understand say Bitcoin business no be scam, na genuine business e be.

I congratulate investors that kept their faith in Solana, and those that had the crystal ball to see that Solana, will bounce back by putting their money in it at a time when it was presumed that it was dying. This should be a lesson for investors to take advantage of buying any top altcoin that is in bear run or presumed to be worthless, because  probability is that it can make a surprise comeback to regain lost glory and being very profitable again, like in the case of Solana.

Team innovations is another thing that can revive a coin that has dipped to rock bottom, example is the Solana, deal with Shopify, that added them as a crypto payment, I hear this is one of the big drivers to their comeback. I hope they keep coming up with milestone ideas to remain in the top altcoins division.

Your story is no different from the ones of many forum members who have fallen for these scam projects that promises to give you 100× ROI, but they never live up to their promises. I'm glad that you've learned your lesson to beware of new projects that have not been tested in the cryptocurrency market, I was shocked when I learned about the number of shitcoins that are created everyday, it's a free market, so you'll except the good and the bad to be coming up with their own coins. I always advice to stick to Bitcoin and top altcoins, no matter how the market trends, they'll always remain relevant and profitable. Investing in new altcoins is a gamble, what you see is what you get, most times it's loses than profits.

The matter no de funny at all, di way wey our currency take de devalue and disappear de very sad, imagine a whole 5 naira, na im wey de tell bye bye for dis country, because e no fit to buy anything again. As a matter of fact you no even fit dash Berger di money sef, because im fit to vex reject am, na who you go come blame? No be today our economy begin to de nose dive, in the early 80s, dem de use kobo, dat one die, in the early 90s dem de use 10 kobo, 50 kobo dat one die, in di early 2000 dem de use 5 naira, today e don die, I de fear say if di county still follow dis trend, in a few years e fit reach 200 naira and 500 naira turn. Maybe dem go come print 5000 naira and 1000, naira notes. One day you fit enter local joint go eat and you go spend 20k for a plate of rice and beans. E no funny, which way Nigeria?

Established crypto coins guarantees peace of mind, where the investors are not worried whether the coins will see another light of day, because they're sure that no matter how the market trends, whether price pump or dump that they're money remains safe. A cryptocurrency like Bitcoin follows a pertern that's quite predictable, bear run is a time to sow and bull run is a time to reap, if an investor can predict this circle and wait for the right season they'll harvest bountifully. Bitcoin and top altcoins like Ethereum, will surely give their investors profitable ROI.

This can not be said about new projects, they all come with hypes, giving promises of bountiful harvest, but in the end many of them comes short of these promises, so buying them is gambling your funds, and be ready to accept whatever outcome that they bring. There are credible ones, but in the midst of shitcoins, it is not to easy to know a genuine altcoins.

Thanks for dropping this link, I hope it'll be helpful to me too, I'm yet to explore the potentials that is in web3, hopefully it interests me and I can also profit from it. I'm hearing that that you'd have to get in early for it to be profitable to you, anyways no need to ask more questions about it here, since I'm going to look it up, hopefully I'll get a headstart from there.

This will be so much for Bitcoin being the top currency of the future where it's adoption will make everyone to look to cryptocurrency as the desirable means of transaction payments. Going by your analysis that means that we should not expect any redemption about Bitcoin high transaction fees coming down in the future, especially when the mempool is congested, in that case it'll still remain in the category of "an alternative means of payments", when it comes to using it to make payments for goods and services, because who'll bear the high transaction fees, seller or buyer? Fiat currencies will still be preferable, because it's cheaper and faster. Bitcoin will still maintain what is still keeping it going till today, a valuable digital asset to hold as an investment and for trading purposes, not as it's original purpose of p2p transaction payment currency, the high fees will be a clog in wheels of it's adoption.

The subject of this thread suggests a topic that bothers on world economy that is hit with disaster and how we can come together to salvage it, or maybe the oppression of a perticular class of people. But I'm surprised as you are that the content is about launching a cryptocurrency, he should know that this is an anonymous forum where we come to discuss cryptocurrency and other relevant matters as it affects us and the economy around us. As far as I know any businesses between members in this forum that is at their own risks, and you can't hold the forum responsible for any disagreements or scams. It's better he assembles a team if he wants to start a project.

Controlling gambling addiction can be easier said than done, someone can tell you to just try another hubby, even if you do, you might find yourself coming back to Gambling again. I believe that it takes very high discipline and patience to actually leave an addiction, not something that you can easily replace with another activity and expect the addiction to disappear. The gambler can gradually reduce the time spent on gambling, by engaging in other activities, then gradually there'll be a balance between gambling and the other activities, before he knows it, the time spent in gambling will reduce. If a gambler reaches a stage where he has discipline and can control his gambling emotions, then it'll not be considered
as addiction.

Coingecko, is a very good place to search for exchanges to trade, you'll see the options, carry out your research and choose, depending on the ones that operates in your country.

It's true that just accumulating and holding Bitcoin or altcoins as an investment for years can be boring, although it's believed to be the safest method of making profit in cryptocurrency. So if someone wants to feel the action and make money on the short term, then it's trading, although you have to be equipped with essential knowledge of trading. So it's true to start with the amount that you can afford to loose, so you can minimize loses, because crypto trading is not an easy business, you'll have to understand it's fundamental and technical analysis, even that is not enough to guarantee profits.

This is indeed one of the ugliest injustice that is done to women in some parts of the world especially in Africa, to be precise this ugly tradition still happens in my tribe. Women are not given anything from their father's inheritance, infact they're not even recognized in the sharing formula, only the male children have the right to receive inheritance. It is believed that female children will get married and belong to another family, therefore her inheritance will be in her husband's family. It is an achaich tradition that should be abolished, although some educated people are now writing wills, to ensure that their female children gets shares of their inheritance.

Another ugly tradition is if a widow doesn't have children or she has but there's no male child, the late husband's family will collect all her late husband's properties. Unless the woman is educated and fights for her right in court, she'd lose everything and only survive at their mercy.

Any woman that is of marriageable age and is still single doesn't get the respects that she deserves, although this trend is gradually fading as women are being more financially independent now.

I believe that the increase of Bitcoin users will not crash it's network, because I also believe that the Blockchain is designed to accommodate as many users transactions as possible. Not very knowledgeable in the field because I don't know if the Blockchain capacity can be expanded if the need arises, if not it'll affect the Bitcoin adoption in the future. Although one thing is certain as you have noted, the Bitcoin network congestion is a very big concern, because when there are lots of transactions to be confirmed, the mempool gets congested that leads to delays in confirmations and high transaction fees. This can be a clog in the wheels of it's smooth adoption.

I guess that this is the reason why we have so many shitcoins in the crypto space today, an industry where anybody can wake up one morning and decide that they want to have their own coins. I don't know if there's any sort of regulations to maintain standards before accepting applications for creating crypto coins, so that the rate at which worthless coins and tokens are created will reduce. Example is OP wanting to create a cheap and easy cryptocurrency, to share with his friends and trade with other coins, without a business plan or experience, how do you think that such an altcoin will survive the competitive market? I think that people should try and learn from professionals, be mentored by successful people in the line of business that they want to venture into, even go the extra mile and take a course if possible, so they can really master the industry and how it works.

Make I no too sound pessimistic about di possibilities of dem employing new graduates, because I believe say na naija, we de and before dem put di information for news, every matter of employment go don de settled. I sure say people wey de work for the refinery and people wey get leg and mouth go don secure all di available positions for demselves and for people wey dem go bring. Di wey I see am na by di grace of God, person wey no know person go  get employment for crude oil matter, because na for oil di money de and everybody need di oil money. I hope say di news na true and make dem start operation ASAP, because e de very shameful say a whole so called giant of Africa, wey get crude go de import refined petrolatum products

I seriously want to believe that the US government must have a good reason to investigate certain wallets on Tether, it could be for reasons that concerns their national security. I guess that it must be so because it's not only FBI but also their secret service that's involved, so I guess it's best that Tether management cooperates with them to at least clear their name in any illegal deals. Although government interference goes against the norms of any crypto related affairs that should guarantee privacy, but if it's for a good cause, because of hacks and illegal activities, then we'll have to accept the turn of events.

I think that Bitcoin has passed that stage where we'll fear whether it'll diminish like some random altcoin that'll eventually turn shitcoin, and be dead for good. That fear must be in the early years of adoption, when people were not sure of what to make of a decentralized digital currency, that has no physical presence. Not in this present days that investors have tested and are testifying it's profitability, infact Bitcoin has proven itself to be a valued asset that can be trusted to last as long as time permits. Bitcoin bear and bull runs will always give it relevance, where more investors will want to enter and take advantage to increase their ROI.
