I should say I can make at least 15-20 posts a day depending on my mood.
That's apt. One's mood matters a great deal when it comes to interactions. Posting on this forum is interaction (that's the way I see it). Any post that isn't interactive will obviously paint a picture of spam. Those who post in isolation – posting without addressing the topic of discussion– know what I'm saying here.

Quote
what is your average number of posts?
My average will be around six per day. This is putting into consideration that there are days are get fired up and make over 10 posts in a day while on certain days I don't even make up to five posts. Also, sometimes I get distracted from the forum and end up not making a single post.

Quote
For you what is the acceptable time gap during/while posting in this forum?
That would depend on how knowledgeable and resourceful the community thinks your posts are. I've see reputable members post in less than 5 minutes time gap and no one called them out on that. I don't know if I've fallen into such short time duration but I do like to space my posts as best as I can.


Summarily, I think what matters most is what is posted as against its time space.
1602  Other / Meta / Re: What is the advantage of Wearing signature avatar on your BTT profile? on: April 07, 2023, 01:06:21 PM
Have seen many of members wear signature avatar, Can you members give idea what that be expected from wearing signature avatar on your profile?
Ads and promotions.
I can say yes for signatures but not for avatars. Since avatars don't have links, I wonder how the services they're meant to promote get visibility. I'm referring to avatar only campaigns, not those that combine avatar with signature campaigns because investors can simply click on signatures and get the information or web addresses they want.

I said in the next bull run, It's not possible... You can't compare bitcoin to Shiba Inu, no offense.
Bitcoin is in a class of its own. I didn't compare it with Shib. I only alluded to how most people never believed in it when it started. That stage is what we've now in Shib.


Quote
Current circulating supply of SHIB - 589,543,681,764,963. It's 14th with a total market cap of $6,614,625,276 at the price of $0.00001122. If the price ever got to $50 At the current circulating supply, the total market cap would be 29,477,184,088,248,150. Over Twenty-nine quadrillion USD just for shib only! The total market cap is barely 1 Trillion USD.

Do you think this is even realistic at all?
In all the data you put out there, you forgot that there's something called burning of tokens. The Shib team can decide to burn its excess token tomorrow and that will cause price to frog leap. After all, BNB also did it.

~snipped~
I agree with you, there's no way I will keep investing in a business when am not making profit from the business even after three years that's crazy you know
Yeah, it's crazy. I believe keeping such a non-profit yielding business for that long is hoping against hope. It's the same thing a sore trader would do to a losing trade. Instead of closing it, they would rather allow the loss run deep in the hope that the trade would revert to profit. I don't think any seriously minded businessman would want to keep a business that's not making them any profit to run that long as three years. Except that person is a money-miss-road and that's certainly not business.

Summing up the message for those who do not want to read all this text:
You guessed right. However, your comment is a page-turner and I don't know why anyone wouldn't want to read it to the end.

I'm glad and truly satisfied with your response and that makes me more proud supporting your brand. Keep it up, BestChange. I look forward to celebrating more anniversaries here.
1607  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: are you still strong holding btc on: April 04, 2023, 09:14:36 PM
I want to ask if you also  keep holding btc?

and the reason I hold btc is because I believe the price of btc in 2024 will be high and there will be no more btc prices like now.
If you don't have any pressing need or emergency to use the money from the sale of your BTC, please resist the urge of selling now. Don't sell for the mere sake of selling or trying to check your trading skills. You may not be able to buy back cheap. Instead of selling, buy more on DCA if you can afford it. This incoming bull rally will frog jump Bitcoin to over $120k if we should rely on the mathematical derivation from past data. It's common knowledge that every preceding ATH more than doubled the past one. The current ATH is $69k. Now do the maths and we expect a new ATH to happen between 2024 and 2025. So, brace up.
1608  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Trade like Robot (Robot doesn't have emotions) on: April 04, 2023, 05:56:08 PM
I am right at predicting the next move, but, my emotions are not in control they make my trade go wrong by moving stop loss, increasing leverage.
If it happened to you often and your predictions come to pass but you still haven't learnt how to stick to your instincts, it simply means that you don't have a worked out trading plan then. What is trading if it's not prediction? Your emotions shouldn't come into your trades if most of your predictions work out in your direction. Back tests your strategy and stick to it if your predictions work better with it.

Quote
Is it correct statement that we should trade like robot ?
That's not possible. Humans will always display emotions and that's what makes us humans. The only thing is that every trader needs to have a strong control over their emotion.
1609  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: When is the next altcoin season? on: April 04, 2023, 05:42:24 PM
Things slightly changed the last time and that was in 2021. My observation was that altcoins usually went into bull rally after each Bitcoin circle recorded a fresh ATH. Bitcoin had its peak at 69k in November 2021. I expected that alts would rally the following year but that didn't happen. So, I don't know what to actually expect now. All I can say now is that everyone should just be mindful of the alts they're buying. Make sure they've utility. Otherwise, the alts can be swallowed up when a bear rally hits them.

Anyone who wants to fool masses in the world just plays the God card, and please avoid being part of the fools  Wink
I think that's very common in Africa. I don't know what continent you're from but I tell you it's worse with my countrymen. Just tell people you're a priest/pastor, most of them will cease to reason intelligently. They literally hand over their brain to you. Even when the priest is discovered to be wrong and false, a lot won't dare criticize him.

Quote
The whole prediction and God vision about $50 per Shiba Inu is bullshit. Shiba Inu won't even make it past $0.001 in the next bull run. Mark my words.
Don't say never. This industry is highly unpredictable. Nothing is certain in the crypto industry. That was how so many people never believed in Bitcoin when it debuted. None ever imagined that Bitcoin could get to $1k let alone $10k. Today, we all know better.
1611  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What is your honest review of the Demo account? on: April 04, 2023, 02:45:34 PM
Do you think that should spend so much time trading on a demo account?
Nope, not at all. Just spend a few days on demo platform to get acquitted to the platform, then move quickly to the real thing. Demo is simulation. It doesn't have emotions attached to it like the real thing. Years spent on demo trading won't translate to being successful on live trading. In fact, if one overstays on demo trading, it could make one to panic when the real trading kicks in. Instead of dwelling on demo for long, I advise that you fund a live account and reduce your risk to the nearest minimum.
1612  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: @Active Members of Bitcointalk: Why have you created an Account here? on: April 04, 2023, 01:17:11 PM
If you want to share your reasons,

- why your decision to be active here was in favor of Bitcointalk
or
- how you detected Bitcointalk,
I will eliminate the "or" and write on both. Let me start with your second question. I stumbled on this forum by chance. That was how I "detected it". I was ferociously looking for sites that could teach me what Bitcoin was all about and that was in 2017. My search on Google brought me to this forum. I observed it awhile and in less than two weeks I made my conclusion and registered on it.

My decision to remain active here, besides the monetary gain, is simply because there are loads of insights on knowledge one gets for free here. Most crypto fora are full of spam and shitposts. It's discouraging posting there, to say the least. I had accounts in a few of them but I stopped posting there after awhile. There was one – Moonforum (or so) – that would've served as a strong competition for Bitcointalk. Sadly, that forum didn't last before it went under and shutdown.
1613  Other / Off-topic / Re: Prepare for the life when you get old on: April 04, 2023, 12:48:26 PM
Last week, I met one of my uncles-in-law who has been a sailor for many years.
An in-law is an in-law. It doesn't matter if he's someone older than you're. Except you meant to write "uncle's in-law". That's, as in, an inlaw to your uncle. If you're referring to a man who is married to your aunt as "uncle in-law", that's wrong. By the way, your uncle can only be someone from your dad or mum's bloodline. Nothing else. I even hear or read people say, "my cousin brother"or "cousin sister". What the heck does that mean? A cousin is a cousin, except you say a "male cousin or a female cousin." You guys should stop complicating stuff with all those unnecessary placements. As a Nigerian, I understand your drift but those from other nations may not get it (in the deep sense of its usage).

In the past decade, he has been out of town and travelling all over the world to make a living. He has two children to raise and being a father who is always absent from their growing-up, he somehow does not know how to get along with his kids once he is back home once a year.
No parent should be absent in the lives of their children, especially the formative years. Making ends meet shouldn't be a reason for not being around. Keep your family close and tight by being around in their lives.

Always plan for the future. What do you think ?
Yeah, always plan for the rainy days. However shit happens and sometimes our plans just come crashing at the dying minute. Like the man in your story, I advise people to get into jobs/employment that will allow them time to themselves and family. That will allow them dictate their own pace and not being dictated to. Acquire skills and in acquiring those skills, make sure they're skills that can be used online.
1614  Other / Meta / Re: [NEW] Bitcointalk Captcha Solving course: DEFEAT FLAPPY BIRD on: April 04, 2023, 09:55:14 AM
So, invariably, it means this service is now defunct 🤔. Won't keeping this thread open continually lead to spamming here?
1615  Other / Meta / Re: How did you enjoyed the Captcha on: April 04, 2023, 09:49:19 AM
Where you afraid when you first noticed the red flag?
I was actually flummoxed but not scared so to say. I initially skipped the captcha the first time because I thought it could be something that might end up hacking my account if I solved it. When I later saw numerous users tagged "suspected spammer" same way as I was, after I had posted; I just posted my second straight away. I guess it was on the third post that I attempted solving the captcha and discovered it was a hard but to crack. Especially, when one was told one had over 50 coins to collect.

About the TryNinja hack? Nope, I never tried using it. I just let the fun be, knowing it would disappear the following day.
1616  Other / Meta / Re: Who was your April fool Best? on: April 04, 2023, 06:37:39 AM
Theymos got me better than others. The "suspected spammer" tag got me until I saw that almost everyone who posted on the day got it and realized it was a prank. The funny thing was that I had thought of that annual prank from theymos a day to the event. Last year (2022) I preempted the April prank a few days to it by making my Another Fools' Day post. I took it down on advice not to spoil the fun and then reposted on the D-Day.

That didn't get my attention as I ain't fond of jumping from one campaign to another. Again, come to think of it that was an already existing campaign. How would it spike its reward that high? A lot of users who applied there didn't take those things into perspective. They were just blinded by the reward promised.

1. Be a somewhat established member.
Well, there's a thing called "lost glory". If someone was thought to be established either from how they carried themselves here in their supposed exceptional posting habits or the way they resolved issues, and then they started abusing that by making off topic and spam posts. Sooner than later logic will catch up with them and their sham will become obvious. Their value will be lost forever. I've followed certain cases of established members who later turned rogues and got punished for that here.
1618  Economy / Economics / Re: Bank loans and securities. on: April 03, 2023, 06:18:00 PM
So that's mean education do not have the real value but properties does.
What were you expecting? That banks should accept your school certificate in lieu of landed property or asset? That's not possible. Your certificate means nothing to the bank. It can mean the world to you but certainly not to the bank. Banks are cruel capitalists. Their major focus is always on how to recoup their money in case a borrower defaults. Your cert can't raise the money if you default because it can't be sold. Again, who told you that you can't get a job or earn a living without your cert once you hand it over to the bank? Of course, banks know all that gimmick and won't bow to it.
1619  Economy / Economics / Re: How Long in Years Should I Wait Before I Close Down an Unprofitable Business on: April 03, 2023, 05:32:38 PM
- To what extent do you agree or disagree with this assertion?
I disagree with him on the three years wait. I would shoot the business down if it went on a year without being productive. The only way I would leave it to that point of three years would be if the business started and then went on lock and key, only to be reopened again on the third year. Otherwise, why would I be feeding a business that isn't making me any profit for three years. Doing that isn't a good business strategy.

Yes, it seems that he believes in you. He believes you are a good person for successfully teaching him.
Yes, he did believe in me. However, I was teaching him at the time the principle of "never you trust anyone in this crypto industry". So, he failed the test.

Quote
But from there he's also smart because he gives you a blank wallet password and password. It indicates that you have taught him well.
Not really that. It was a wallet I tutored him to open. I knew it was blank. Even after he unwittingly gave me his passphrase, I told him to discard that wallet and open a new one.

Quote
Even myself wouldn't give prifatkeys, passwords to people who have taught me, that's crazy.
That's the spirit!

But I have written in some notes. This is because I hope my wife or child finds out if one day I die.
Yeah, that should be the attitude. That's in case who dies intestate.
