21  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Pi Network Token is to be listed in Binance Soon. on: May 20, 2024, 06:32:52 PM
Not to discriminate against or be against this Pia network, but this is the first time that I'm hearing about pre-listing testing and any of such on Binance; I have never seen anything of such on Binance before. Who are those who run this Pia token trading testing on Binance, and why has Binance not dropped any update about it on any of their X accounts for it to be official? 
 
The Notcoin listing will pave the way for many things in the crypto space; many will be deceived and carried away, and many will grab some great opportunity that might change their lives, but even if I don't see any official news about this Pia project from Binance, I won't still believe them. A lot of fake promises and speculation have already come and gone on the Pia network.

if anyone should announce it, it should be binance but i doubt this scam will be listed in Binance. not coming from hokanews. afaik this tokens been around before 2020 and are still not listed in any exchange. yet suddenly will be on binance. they can't even correctly spell the NETWORK.



everybody already understood this is a scam. iirc, people who had invested in this token hasn't gotten their token yet.
22  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Best memecoin in 2024 on: May 20, 2024, 06:14:36 PM
Even though I don't want to invest in meme coin, I am very optimistic that SHIB and DOGE will return to being hidden gems and become the best memecoins in 2024, because the potential these two memecoins have is very high so there is a chance to get it to very high profits in the future,

they are the 2 memecoins that are mostly listed in major exchanges, the rest are just somewhere in the middle but are pumped to get noticed by the retail investors. so far no help from Elon yet but Dogecoin has consistently been on top.

however this is not what investors are looking for when it comes to qualifying as BEST, its often the price and which one has made people richer.
23  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: FTX planning to payback customers, small account holders on the priority list on: May 19, 2024, 07:16:18 PM
in some articles, they were saying they'd pay in full + interest which is cool but other articles are just saying FTX will be paying them in fiat during the time off FTX collapse. which means because, at the time of the collapse, the value of BTC was around $17k, the creditors will get such an amount also plus interest. 
this is just like confiscating the coins and paying them what it's worth at that time.
It should be at the current price or the amount of btc they are holding. Its not fair if the price will use im fiat is the one those times during that time it is bear situation even so their holding is in altcoin. Hence the computation must be negligence and only gave them the amount on which they are holding. Like if a guy holds 0.5btc he must be given that amount 0.5btc not 0.5btc worth in 17k in fiat thats bullsh*t.

if the info was right, its a bad news for those creditors. having just 0.5BTC means you can only get $8k+ while if they refund at the current rate, the amount would be around $33k. not bad as it's like letting them hold your coins.

even better if they just return 1BTC as 1BTC then all is well like nothing has ever happened, they may even forget what SBF did for all they care as long as they get their coins back.

a direct beneficiary like the wife not granted to access the money is such a cruel act. i'm not sure if its happening in my country but if it does, i think the banker will not be able to walk peacefully outside the bank. 

with cryptocurrency, banks may not be the first that people need to keep their money.
some certain banks have a disgusting character so that is why I said that I found cryptocurrency kind of investment or banking very safe than Fiat kind of banking system because in cryptocurrency you are the only one that I have access to your funds why in Fiat currency it is the bank manager or the account manager that we determine when your money will be out so banking system is very corrupt that is why I don't like them

we are already living in a world where morals are not given importance. people are even called imbeciles when they return a lost and found money, we are living in these times where becoming a good guy seems not right.

It is a very basic rule, things that belong to a person such as cash or property will be passed on to his wife, sons, or daughters. it doesn't even need a lawyer for that. they don't have to fight over it, they could settle in front of a chief town.
25  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Venezuela bans crypto mining on: May 19, 2024, 04:38:25 PM
they confiscated 2000 mining devices. i have a feeling they are going to be using those devices soon to mine BTC for themselves lol they should be making a lot of money since they have the gas to power up those 2000 devices.

for a country governed by one man, it would make sense to nationalize every resource they could have from energy, gas, water, and Bitcoin. Bitcoin is becoming a currency for politicians.

What do you mean online jobs are not allowed in your country? What are you doing here in the forum? Because clearly you have access to the internet still.

I think one of the most successful things you can pursue is business. Think of a product or service that is in demand and elevate it so that you will attract more people in your business. Having incorporate online services can also help in elevating your business. That can help you achieve what you want.

It's not about having access to the internet, but when you earn money and try to withdraw it or cash it out, that's when you get in trouble.
And, businesses are for those who have money to spend and not for those who are looking to earn money and grow financially.

you don't have to answer which country you're from but damn that's the kind of place a Bitcoiner does not belong to.

what i would probably do if i were in such a place is become a farmer and a fisherman at the same time. this way there is no reason to go hungry. sell crops and fishes is the way to go since there is no job opportunities even if you have a PhD.  or you can move to another country
28  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Social media account as KYC requirement? (2) on: May 19, 2024, 05:28:13 AM

it's insane why the Nigerian government will go to such lengths but i find it somehow okay if the data just belongs to their government. however, if they allow international exchanges who ask those KYC and social media accounts, then it's really going into something that they are not in control of their situation. 

today it's just Nigeria doing this. maybe there will be no resistance but by doing this in Europe or America, people will refuse to agree on this.
29  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Kraken considers dropping USDT in Europe ahead of new regulations on: May 18, 2024, 07:50:44 PM

2 exchanges already, that's great for they are consistent with what they are doing.
MICA is creating a pain in the ass for these exchanges with these limits and they are asking 60% reserve requirement while their bank doesn't even allow businesses related to crypto.

if they are doing all these, they should just have their own Euro stablecoin. and drastically change the bank laws. it seems to be like a good route to start printing Euro in blockchain.
30  Economy / Economics / Re: The collapse of central banks...Inevitable? on: May 18, 2024, 07:05:28 PM

maybe central banks will still be the same as they are since global collapse will likely not happen. not all currency is collapsing actually, we are seeing USD being printed by the millions each month but on the other side of the world where China and Russia, are also establishing something worth using which means other countries have the option to shift to their platform like the BRICS currency.

31  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does the world know about Bitcoin? on: May 18, 2024, 06:50:14 PM
A month ago, a news channel made news about Bitcoin in my country. I still see a lot of people who think Bitcoin is a scam. I feel bad for them; they still don't understand Bitcoin's growth from zero to here. Those who are calling Bitcoin scam; they know Bitcoin, but they don't know how it actually works. And I saw a lot comment there they don't know what is Bitcoin, they heard first time about Bitcoin. I don't know any exact data, but in my opinion, less than 5% of people know about Bitcoin. That means a major part of the population is unaware of Bitcoin. 
Those who have no idea about Bitcoin and who have been misinformed from the beginning will basically do the same thing about Bitcoin. If I always discuss with you the negative aspects of a subject, only the negative aspects of that subject will come to you, and whenever you hear the name of that subject, you will find its negative aspects. A country's journalists and other media spread negative propaganda about Bitcoin, which creates a negative perception of Bitcoin among people who did not know about Bitcoin in the past when they learn about Bitcoin anew. But beyond all these, if a user tries to learn about Bitcoin on his own, then he will definitely know something good about Bitcoin.

the media i think intentionally made BTC look like a scam to the public. because if there is good news for BTC like the approval of ETFs, the news never made it to the mainstream for all to hear. but if the news is about BTC being used to scam or the kidnapper asked for the ransom in BTC, the news will just spread like it is happening worldwide that even my pop who is just as bedridden as he is will start asking whether i'm involved to this kind of activity.  Grin

not everyone in the world will get a fair knowledge of the wealth distribution that is currently happening. they will miss it out because of the media and the people behind it they are keeping it out for the public to know. i think it should be our duty already to spread the word out.

If people in a country buy bitcoin instead of keeping money in the bank or invest in bitcoin, then the economic situation of the country's government can be seen as a disaster. Not only does Bitcoin spread bad news but various banks always warn customers about Bitcoin so that customers don't invest in Bitcoin at all. But I have seen many investors from those countries too who are investing in Bitcoin without giving importance to such false propaganda of their country. I think every country probably has investors who are investing in Bitcoin against the propaganda of their country's news media or banks.

when the media already portrays a negative image of the product, people have it in mind that what the media is saying is true. har to actually change the mind of someone since for a long time they rely on their information from the media, they are to even think on their own.

so many people around the world will not be able to own even just a fraction of 0.001BTC while the world will be going into a transition from fiat to BTC adoption.

32  Economy / Economics / Re: Hyperinflation - Will it lead Countries to Adopt Bitcoin? on: May 18, 2024, 06:26:22 PM
I have hope that hyperinflation will get to a certain extent whereby many countries will have nothing left for them as an alternative to perfect their economy than in adopting for bitcoin use in the country, because over several years, the fiat system and government couldn't help in the situation of the economic challenge than to create a sustained inflation towards the economy and in which the people are the ones being affected the most.

there are a few options to do but some of those options are not for the fainted hearts. but as long as their central banks can print money, it's going to be tragic for the lives of the people. BTC would have been good if they tried adopting when the price had taken a nose dive to $17k. but i think it's still not too late if they start now.

a few months ago Melei was trying to adopt USD. i guess he also realized that all currencies are devalued.
33  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: FTX planning to payback customers, small account holders on the priority list on: May 18, 2024, 06:00:36 PM

Does this guy look like he is going to do 25 years in prison to you? Not to me.

He will get the same treatment as CZ. A slap on the wrist. "Don't do that again kiddo!"
Well worst case is this scenario. But he must be rot on Jail, yes I think there are ways on how he can definitely free from that 25yrs of imprisonment. But not all Politician can be bought, At least I believe there is an opposing side to this. If he isnt gonna be punished then every fraudster out there will likely be gain momentum to do their stuff as Sam just walk freely after all those sins.

i don't think the clients are inserted to know what will happen to him anymore. what they wanted to know is if they could get back their coins. they were once happy hearing the exchange will be relaunched but those guys are just not going to do it.

in some articles, they were saying they'd pay in full + interest which is cool but other articles are just saying FTX will be paying them in fiat during the time off FTX collapse. which means because, at the time of the collapse, the value of BTC was around $17k, the creditors will get such an amount also plus interest. 
this is just like confiscating the coins and paying them what it's worth at that time.
34  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How can we increase the awrarness level for Bitcoin adoption on: May 17, 2024, 10:25:33 PM
there are still people who are online every day but are not aware of Bitcoin still. they just stay on social media but are not subscribed to some friends who are aware of BTC. there are local forums in my country where i share some Bitcoin memes and updates, but only a handful of users keep talking about Bitcoin.

although we are happy discussing what we earn from the price increase, a few who accidentally click the thread are just there to say hi. rural areas might just be the last especially if an internet connection isn't accessible.
35  Economy / Economics / Re: The increase of dollar affecting underdeveloped countries economy on: May 17, 2024, 09:56:55 PM
Increase in dollar does not affect any undeveloped countries rather it's because of their weak and unstable economies which can't compete favourably in the international market causing the local currency of that country to depreciate against the dollar
The truth is dollar is always stable and does not increase in the united state but because underdeveloped countries like Nigeria their currencies are fragile due to their weak and bad economic policies the local currency always decline against the dollar the most painful thing is the devaluing of these weak currencies especially in my country Nigeria the naira is always devalued for God knows what reason that the government always give

it affects the dollar earner in Nigeria whether the dollar falls or goes up, their earnings also depend on the rate.

in underdeveloped countries, it often affects when the prices of products are going high especially because they are rated in dollars such as gas.  when gas prices go up, so is the price in Naria. still when this happens the dollar earner is also affected.
36  Economy / Economics / Re: War will give reason to make different economics blocks east/west on: May 17, 2024, 08:10:36 PM
you don't know how the orientals live, do you?
children even live with their parents even when they are married already. just look at the culture of India where 3-4 generations still live in a compound because of family ties. you could say they enslave their own in the guise of respecting the elders but seems right for us since it's the same as helping each other. when the kids grow responsibly, their kids serve them as well.

when a country is in debt trouble. colonization starts to make sense in their minds whether in Eastern or Western countries. it's the reason why in ancient times slavery was common.
37  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Fixed matches group in 3rd world countries on: May 17, 2024, 07:34:46 PM
A friend of mine reached out to me, not in any attempt to lure me into this; he wasn't aware that I'm also involved in sports betting and that he's in a Facebook group of approximately 100 users, where the "administrator" is distributing money on certain matches of completely unknown teams in India, Guatemala, Pakistan, or other countries, with odds usually higher than 1.7 to 1.8.

The only catch is that they have to share 50% of the earnings with the group's administrator, who is basically giving you the money to make the bets.
This sounds strange if I may say, because this is actually my first time hearing of this strategy whereby an admin provide a sure fixed game, share money to it's members to gamble and then share the profit 50/50.  Because if this is actually true just the way you explained, then it means the admin is literally losing money every single day, rather than gaining.

That is,
Imagine the admin shared $100 each to members to gamble with.
And the odd of the game was 1.7 odds.
They gambled and won $170 each
They share the profit 50/50 each, which is $85
Which means the admin probably would have lost $15 per individual. (I.e imagine you brought $100, and you got paid back $85). It literally doesn't make any sense.

However, I think the common fixed match strategy I have always heard is that an admin will provide the game, and instead of selling the game to gambler, he will rather give the game to trusted individuals to gamble it and then share the profit either 30/70% or 50/50% depending on the odd of the game. But just that most cases, this always turn out to be scams.

doesn't add up still. when he could get the whole amount by himself. but maybe OP should bring the link here for people to investigate and not us just guessing. but he must have been benefiting from all these and doesn't want to poop that party for doing so.

but fixed matches are being done in the top-level organization. they were once the maffia but turned into a federation or organization in sports who decides the outcome of who will be the champ and whos not.
38  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Memecoin specifically for holders.. on: May 17, 2024, 07:19:14 PM

this must be the memecoin developers hired by Binance to develop a memecoin in BNB. i just learned about the HODL from the other thread.

i don't know if it's really worth holding. all memecoins are for dumping. it all just depends on the individual who got the memecoin. if one got them for the cheapest price, they'd sell them when the price hits their target.  most investors will stick around to assets that will give yield even without the hype.
39  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 'HODL' The first meme coin on BNB Chain? on: May 17, 2024, 07:08:59 PM
bitget shill again?
and no moron, whatever that shitcoin HODL is, it's not the first meme coin on BSC


EDIT: my bad, you're just here to shill the shitcoin apparently, not the shit exchange
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5496813

lol there are lots of them some are migrated to BNB chain. but they are all the same. if they are not pumped to get recognized by the users who just want to ride the trend then it's best left alone.

not a shit exchange? give a another 2 years after this bull run and we'll see what bitget may look like. it comes up while the market is getting greener. when the market is bearish for a year or 2, that's when you see how good exchange turn shit.
40  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: When investing in Bitcoin: what to consider? on: May 16, 2024, 08:54:20 PM
So what are your opinion towards the people that are investing in Bitcoin?

they make use of technology in their finance development. but it may be different for some people with ideology. after all when they consider themselves unbanked then Bitcoin is their way to bank their money.

if you are to invest in BTC, consider the most important thing to have, always hide your seed phrase. keep it somewhere hidden in a place where no one ever visits but of course you may give a clue to your kid or wife.
