Remember that movie series 'Vicking, in the last episode when the lead act Ragna, who had been gone for a long time and his family and people had moved on, suddenly showed up, their expressions were like, "why did you come back". So Satoshi Nakamoto's, anonymity has become his identity, if he were to show up now, I doubt that he'll get that heroic welcome, because since he or them created Bitcoin and disappeared, we've moved on with Bitcoin, and we're thankful to him for giving us this decentralized digital asset, that we,re hoping that it's value will outlive us, as it's doing very fine without Satoshi, ever since he exited the scene.

Joining this forum has been the biggest crypto decision that I've ever made, I've gained so much knowledge about how to secure my coins and if I had started my crypto investment journey before joining this forum, I'd have probably fallen for any scam project that is hyped on YouTube, without carrying out any research. As far as crypto goes, the best choice is definitely Bitcoin, I'd always hodle over %70 of my crypto investment capital in it, then I will spread the rest on altcoins that I think are reputable and will give me ROI as Bitcoin.

The economy matter tire everybody, no be only you @Charles-Tim, we no even know wetin to believe again, anyway for dis matter, di case of the fine, don settle im sef, as both sides don say dem never anounce or hear any fine matter. Wen I first hear di $10 billion fine, the thing really shock me, I come wonder weda Binance steal our oil wells wey dem go hammer dem dat kin fine. Where my concern de for dis Binance and BDC matter be say weda e go make di prices of commodities for market to come down, because the economy de get worse everyday, hunger de increase for di country everyday, no be joking matter.

For weda you go lock di oda thread, make you use your discretion my oga. Thanks for your updates.

Why do people invest in altcoins, despite knowing the risks involved that they're most likely gambling their capital, the answer is simple, more profits on the short term. Most altcoins, especially new projects can give you 10x to 100x profit on your investment capital, on a short term, but why it's a gamble is because you can lose your investment capital as well, if you buy a scam project. But it's not all the altcoins that are scam or will not have the potentials to last for long term, there are top altcoins that have proven their reputations in the crypto space, despite their pumps and dips, they're still worthy to hodle for the long term, they follow Bitcoin bull seasons to give their investors good profits that is worth their wait.

Buying Bitcoin now is definitely not late, infact with the price prediction we're quite certain that it can hit up to $150k in the peak of bull run, so if a person starts now to hodle, within a year's time, he'll be sure of getting over %100 ROI, I think that'll be a very good deal for any investor. No doubt we're still in the early stage of bull run, and just imagine what will happen after halving, another massive pump because of temporary scarcity, so this is not a time to panic and wish you'd started accumulating earlier, because the party is just getting started. Bitcoin adoption have been massive now because a lot of people are becoming more aware of this bull season, and they want to be a part of it.

Savings and investments are both important, and in my own understanding they're supposed to play different roles in a person's income, what is not good economically is spending all your income as they enter. The best thing is for a person to have a budget and determine what goes where, how many percentage for investment, savings and basic expenditures, with this maths the person will not spend on unbudgeted items , except in an emergency.

After you remove money for basic expenses for the month or week, I think you should divide the rest, save %30 in fiat and invest the rest%70. The savings incase urgent expenses arises, so you won't be running around looking for where to borrow, then investment to secure your future. One of the best investments that anybody can have in this age is Bitcoin, you can be doing DCA method to accumulate and hodle on the long term, it's a profitable asset that will keep increasing in value.

People inherit depts, whether the deacesed borrower used it for gambling or for any other purposes, but it'll be most painful for a person to inherit a dept that was used to gamble, especially if there was no wealth left behind to show for the deacesed gambling. If it's proven that the lender knows that the borrower was going to use the money for gambling and went ahead to borrow him, then I believe that who inherited the dept can have a case against the lender not to repay the loan. People should be responsible about gambling, that's why it's said that we should gamble with the amount that we can afford to loose.

The gap between the rich and the poor is very wide in most developing and underdeveloped nations, the rich and influential will do everything in their power to make the poor to remain in the lowest class, so they'll continue to exploit them by paying them peanuts for an elephant's job. Freeing oneself from the shackles of mental slavery and working to achieve financial freedom depends on where you are, if you're in a country where the leaders are always oppressing the poor with economic implementations that favors only the rich, then it'll be hard for the common man to escape poverty. Many poor people have the mindset to better their fortunes but the enabling environment to flourish their ideas is not provided by the government, this is why the rate of migrants to developed countries is on the increase.

As humans fear is natural when you're faced with uncertainties, despite how brave you are there'll still be that small fear of losing, but it's important not to let that fear to control your judgement. I think that it's ok to have a little fear in crypto trading, because despite your experience and knowledge, the trade can still go against you, so that little fear can make you not to become over confident, and take necessary precautions in the trade. I however think that after a learning stage, confidence should take center stage, with a little fear to remember to be cautious.

Some newbies act like this because of inexperience, thinking that they can ask any magical questions and forum members will stare into a crystal ball and answer, they need to understand the importance of atleast researching and be specific on the areas that they need help.

Choosing altcoins to invest in can be risky because there are more scam projects than the legit ones, so an investor needs to make research before deciding to buy any, however, to minimize the risks of buying a potential shitcoin, it's better for a newbie to start with reputable crypto coins that have gained reputation in the crypto market. The first choice should be Bitcoin, especially as it's entering a bullish season, then top altcoins like Ethereum, BNB and Solana, that has the potentials to bull with Bitcoin

You just nailed wetin I carry for mind for dis thread, our government just de scratch di surface, instead for dem to face di root cause of di reason wey our currency take de experience all time low everyday, insecurity for di country wey de discourage foreign investors, wey de affect our local food production, lack of basic amenities like electricity to encourage small scale businesses, dependence on importation, including fuel wey we get di natural resources. Make we see weda di Binance and BDC clampdown go solve our problems for di country, make naira begin to de appreciate and make di prices of commodities for market begin to de come down.

Last last Binance go succumb and dem go dance to di tunes of di Nigerian government, and dem go release all di names of people wey de do business through dem, na dat time witch-hunting go come start, both people wey get legit and money laundering account go come face di same music. E go de very bad if dem use dis Binance matter wey concern cryptocurrency take de cover for di mess wey naira de now, so people focus go comot for di real decay wey di economy de face now.

Dis one na anoda testament say make we no de leave our coins for centralized exchanges, if no be hack, e go be inside scam or government interference.

Bitcoin ETF has paved the way for other ETFs to become realities, so there's no need for them to go through all the scrutinies that Bitcoin went through before it's approval, I'm quite optimistic that Ethereum, ETF will be approved in May, or not too long after that. When Ethereum, happens, I believe that the process will become less demanding for the other top altcoins to be approved, SEC can decide to space a time frame for ETF approvals.

Like you I also think that it can become a Battle between Solana and BNB, although I see BNB having an edge, but that is not taking anything away from Solana, both are good to go.

You pretty much answered your question, if the US dollar were to have an issue, we'll say with surety that the US government will find a way to save the dollar from crashing and being undervalued, I mean it's the USA, they must have thought about every possible scenerio if their precious dollar were to significantly dip. They undeniably have the best army in the world, and they'll do everything in their power to keep it that way.

Bitcoin is decentralized and it's not shackled by any country, including the US, it's doing just fine now, despite any manipulations, restrictions or bans in different countries, it'll always shine and soar higher despite any challenges along the way.

The economic situation in Nigeria, presently is crazy, as the naira is devaluing, the prices of commodities are increasing everyday, causing economic hardship to the citizens. I know that citizens of some other countries are also facing similar economic hardships, especially developing and underdeveloped countries, this is why many of their citizens are finding means to migrate to developed countries where they can enjoy better standard of living. The governments of these countries needs to be proactive and find lasting solutions to stabilize their economies, that is why they're voted in power. Unfortunately most of the leaders of these countries are clueless and are more concerned about enriching themselves.

These four options that you stated are subjective to individual gamblers preferences, one can be a no-go area for me and it'd be the best option for another gambler, so it depends on what works for every gambler. I'm not an active gambler, so options 2 and 4 will be more suitable for me, bet the same amount on every game, based on my budget and it's not necessary for me to bet everyday, as a past time gambler.

A devoted gambler can merge the four options, he'll just need to alternate them, by choosing any strategy that seems right at a perticular time, it's ok inasmuch as he's gambling responsibly.

Thanks @Brainboss, for your response and direction, I'll do the needful, thanks.

Most people are struggling to make ends meet in most countries, it's either that they're overworked or just being paid a little extra or they're having a second job or a side hustle to be able to meet up with their basic expenditures, while prices of commodities keeps increasing everyday. Some unintentionally go into drug abuse, which can lead them to being addicts, due to the stressful demands of their jobs, they'll want to take a simple painkiller or some other drugs to reduce stress, as time goes on they'll unknowingly become addicted to these drugs, with time they'll be wanting more effective drugs, in the end it'll start affecting their health.

People are living in this rat race, especially in developing countries, overworking themselves and taking unprescribed drugs to ease their pains, that is why they're migrating in large numbers to developed countries, in search of better life.

I wouldn't worry myself about the net worth of Satoshi Nakamoto, or whether it's an individual or a group, or why he choose to remain anonymous, I'm sure that he has a good reason for his choice. the important thing is that he, she or them was able to make a great impact in the world by creating something that has changed the naretive of transactions and investments, and it's adding value to people's finances everyday. I guess his anonymity will have to do with the privacy that comes with Bitcoin transactions, where the identity of a holder is not known, just like our identities in this forum.
