It's funny that you claimed to be the creator of this forum but don't know what the email was for creating it. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5493499.0However, it seems you had some bad intentions behind looking for the email that was used to create this forum or host it. Do you want to hack and claim you are Satoshi? Just curious. I think He is more likely trying to bring another Satoshi drama base on this his thread here If I'm Satoshi Nakamoto How do I prove it?. Let just forget about this guy, he is nothing but another bored troll, we know any of those old folks will not have to go through this kind of means to prove their authencity |

@Amphenomenon Your link is for 2023 and not 2024. I am correct about what I posted yesterday. I have just seen this on Bloomberg which was yesterday news. Nigeria’s economy, which ranked as Africa’s largest in 2022, is set to slip to fourth place this year and Egypt, which held the top position in 2023, is projected to fall to second behind South Africa after a series of currency devaluations, International Monetary Fund forecasts show.
The IMF’s World Economic Outlook estimates Nigeria’s gross domestic product at $253 billion based on current prices this year, lagging energy-rich Algeria at $267 billion, Egypt at $348 billion and South Africa at $373 billion. OH I just noticed this now, I guessed Wikipedia usually update theirs yearly though Base on this link on wiki, the current GDP is now $252.73 billion while they still say Nigeria is the second largest economy in Africa https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_NigeriaBase on the information you provided I can see Nigeria and Egypt rank drop is mainly because of their currency devaluation but do you think this will increase if the value of our currency increases since though we have experience some significant drop but things have not really changed? |

If only the common man would have to be patient, then a guarantee of life long success can be attainable.
You treat Bitcoin like "manna from heaven" when simply Bitcoin is a decentralized transaction system developed out of Satoshi's concerns about the current system. It wasn't developed as an investment asset from the start, but somehow over time people considered it an "investment asset" rather than a digital currency. That's not wrong, but what's wrong is how someone deifies Bitcoin and assumes that one can become successful by just investing in it and being patient - You definitely aware you are wrong if you actually think right. To be frank I will like you to answer these questions : - Who actually HODL and accumulate bitcoin and in the end lost their money
- Those who invested in gold in the 90s or early 2000s did they became rich or broke?
- Do you agree with the term bitcoin is the new gold?, can you with this accept bitcoin as the world best store of value now?
and even more hilariously makes it a gateway to "life long success". No need for hyperbole, and just educate people properly, no need to exaggerate. I wonder how hilarious this is to you when you consider those in WO, also I hope you know that not only through bitcoin investment we can become successful as a bitcoiner while if this might be hilarious to you, then you need to check the Technical board here, since there are alot of bitcoin dev there who make a living in developing bitcoin project like wallet, websites and the likes |

Nice one. Phishing attacks is becoming a nightmare...
The story is interesting and it's good we have it in the Beginners section, imo. Phishing attacks are easy to avoid if you pay attention to simple details. Yes that's if you don’t click on link sent from unknown sources online, email or even sms, while also being cautious of who you're sending information or funds to online, especially if it's the Actual person or service. Though there are still some complicated ones like the news we have heard about Playstore and Appstore having malicious apps, this is among the reasons we should continue to stay updated about security news. Why are users sent warning messages? If they have used the platform to scam people, they should be arrested immediately and not be warned through messages. .
Through legal proceedings? Seriously, you can't arrest someone in the internet just through the stored data in any database with only the email address, it could be hacked, have fake names, as well as fake address and all other info. The messages sent could be just asking evidence or whatever. Since the main suspects are the owners, people operating the website. You're correct and another reason why investigation will go on before any punishment some of these users may actually just explore the site while some might have just used it fewer times less than the others and so their punishment will varies. |

To be frank I'm always disappointed when I still see people being victimize by Human trafficking in Nigeria but I don't really blame all since there are still many uncivilized places here, I guessed they still need to be informed about this especially schools around these areas should be given us task by the government.
I don't know if anyone heard about a news around February or March last month were an old man in his sixties rape a child less than 10, I can't really remember more detailed about it since I only heard from the Radio but this kind of news is something we all ha ve heard about and there are always news like this yearly
Also we need to be watchful on who we walk with and give our children or younger ones to watch over them. So many things are going on like rapes, ritual, selling of body parts and kidnapping. God helps us all

Nigeria GDP should be around $394 billion. On Statista, the update was on 11th Apr 2024 which was 7 days ago. I think it is accurate. But in short, Egypt is the highest in Africa now but the country has half of the Nigerian population. Yes and they are also the third most populated with %7.7 while Ethiopia second with %8.7 and the Nigeria the first with 15.3%. We can see Nigeria topping these two with almost x2. Though this shows a positive growth to the economy while things is just still too complicated for we to say it's getting better |

The LabHost phishing-as-a-service (PhaaS) platform has been disrupted after a year long global law enforcement that now as put to end this menace and they arrested 37 suspects including a main member of the LabHost team. The site called LabHost was active since 2021 and was a cyber fraud superstore, allowing users to produce realistic-looking websites from household names such as the big banks, ensnaring victims around the world including 70,000 in the UK.
LabHost amassed 480,000 debit or credit card numbers, 64,000 pin numbers and made £1m from membership fees alone from 2,000 people, which were up to £300 a month for membership, to be paid in cryptocurrency. It advertised itself as a “one-stop-shop for phishing”.
It offered a tutorial video on how to use the site to commit crime, similar to a video on how to use a new consumer product. The video said the software took five minutes to install, and offered “customer service” if there were any problems. It ended by wishing its criminal users to: “Stay safe and good spamming.”
Without having any much IT knowledge with their help anyone can create a phishing website or any other phishing scammed mentioned and many universities student as been using this platform, for malicious purposes in order to make money online. LabHost also offered infrastructure for hosting phishing pages and automatic phishing email generation and distribution, allowing low-skilled cybercriminals an easy way to carry out attacks.
In February 2024, digital security company Fortra warned that LabHost was growing into a popular PhaaS platform, surpassing other established players on the market.
The recent international law enforcement operation coordinated by Europol started roughly a year ago and involved police forces and special investigators in 19 countries, as well as partners from the private sector like Microsoft, Trend Micro, Chainalysis, Intel 471, and The Shadowserver Foundation.
"The investigation uncovered at least 40 000 phishing domains linked to LabHost, which had some 10 000 users worldwide," reads Europol's announcement.
Europol highlights a particularly powerful tool called LabRat that made the service stand out from the competition. LabRat is a real-time phishing management tool that enabled attackers to capture two-factor authentication (2FA) tokens and bypass account protections.
Also about 800 users has been sent messages to warn them about upcoming investigations on them by the law. It's good to hear news this and to know there are law enforcement agency fighting against such illicit platforms mainly found on dark web but we also have to watch our guards since it's crystal clear that the internet is not safe as it seems.

To be frank I don't believe Haaland has lost his form since his return from injury because He has not really been performing well even before his latest injury especially big teams. Though your reason is something I can agree with that these teams usually are able to locked him but I think there are two things left which is either Pep change his formation to make a support for him in order for him not to be the only player in the forefront like you said or it's up to Haaland to improve his skills and overcome this hurdle, which I think will be better for a player of his profile. Yesterday I lost a bet, but it was to my friend  I had a lot of confidence that Manchester City would manage to qualify, with difficulty of course, but I was wrong Real have shown once again that they are the greatest team in the Champions League and that tradition plays a big part in deciding matches, it's hard to explain and perhaps it doesn't even have a logical explanation, but in deciding matches the team achieves unbelievable results This was something I was expecting though I never thought the winner will be determined by a penalty shoot out though when the penalty shoot out started I had almost full feelings that Real Madrid will win since they were used to such situation, having experienced than any other team to me though I might be wrong. The next Real Madrid vs Bayer Munich match is going to be very interesting
Will Real be able to nullify Harry Kane like they did Haaland?
Harry Kane is totally a different player than Haaland and I don't think that there is any actual 9 is better than him now. While this game in general is a game I can't predict though Real Madrid as mainly been the better team against Bayern Munich in the champions league but I think Bayern still have a chance to win even if they are having one of their worst season in over a decade now. This is their only chance of getting a trophy this season. I think we might be getting another Psg vs Bayern Munich final which will be more intense than seeing Real Madrid VS psg in the final. |

Recently, to my surprise, I saw Nigeria as the fourth in Africa with well reducrion in GDP on Wikipedia which is not more than $253 billion. Is this correct?
I just went to check Wikipedia and Nigeria sits second with a nominal GDP of $390.002 billion https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_African_countries_by_GDP_(nominal) But seems like it was just updated 19days ago on Wikipedia base on info closed to the bottom of the link shared by me above. I went to check the Statista and I saw Nigeria GDP to have declined but not down to $253 billion but $394.94 billion. On Statista, it gives estimation up to 2028 and 2024 has not yet finished which makes me think it could just be a guess work or speculation rather than the real estimated value.
I don't think this is a guess work but maybe a speculation base on their analysis though if we watch their speculation closely till the year ending we might be able to get better understanding how they made this or simply check their past analysis |

Data breach online is highly common and so we always have to be cautious of the type of platform we give access to our contact and email, since both are the two most common ways this type of phisping scam occur but it's quite ironic how many doesn't bother to check what kind of accessibility they give to apps or sites online and if it's possible will allow accessibility to every area on their device in order to avoid those pop up about giving these platforms access to any area of their device since they don't even read at first and this is the reason is alot to get a complete information about others online.
This scam is really common and I think only few people still fall from this scam since majority, if not all platforms especially exchanges specifically tell their customers they will never send messages relating to this. Though we can't just sleep on this since Hackers are also becoming more creative in every of their attempts to victimized others in anywhere possible.

My goal is to help this person create another place that will result in the reader going from being clueless about bitcoin, to knowledgeable and most importantly, interested.
I say "another place" because as bitcoin is software that is community driven, there are already several strong bitcoin education facilitators out there.
Thx ✨
Considering the fact that others have not spoken about this, I will start from here One thing I can say that will make yours unique and will make others interested will be you guys creating your website in similar manner as w3schools were each chapters is somehow short and simplified and having challenges on every chapters ending and also providing help in passing such challenges, also give encouraging comments on each challenges passed just as how it is done in Solo learn platform, this will help in boosting their confidence. Though the w3schools and Solo learn are not a bitcoin tutorial websites but you can implement same strategy to improve your websites and boost visitors interest in learning. Also you can checkout this thread Need some ideas, which will helpful to your website |

It's a false positive the platform is perfectly safe and its smart contract is audited I've checked it on Virustotal and it sometimes happens on web3 application but there's no need to worry there's no complaint so far on the platform No security vendors flagged this URL as maliciousAside this I think Virustotal sometimes are in their judgment since I almost fell for a phisping scam because of it recently last month. @plr just continue to enjoy the platform this information doesn't really matter except its coming from a verified source and proven true |

The ban would harm Nigeria's standing as one of the biggest cryptocurrency markets in the world because it might be interpreted as a punitive step that would discourage traders from visiting the nation. I don't really think this will really impact the Nigeria standing as being among the biggest cryptocurrency markets since we Nigerians already have alot of alternatives and because halving is close by, it was easy for everyone to quickly move on while this is not actually discouraging to foreign traders using Binance, since binance only cut off every of their services with naira which means such trader can possibly use their fiat currency if it's accepted on binance The big question remains what are the Alternatives?
This question has already been answered in our LB of only you took your time to go through previous threads though you joined around April 5th but there were also thread about this after that day like : Reminiscing over Binance |

What message are Liverpool and Arsenal sending out when they lost their games one day after Manchester City had an emphatic 5-1 win over Luton Town? What is even more surprising is that both teams were playing their games at home therefore had the backing of home fans. Though Manchester City are now favourites by most to win the title, there are seven games to go and still many things could change. Both Liverpool and Arsenal were actually disappointing especially Liverpool who out of inconsistency are were they are now, Arsenal did try to make the title a 3 horse race this year after their awful display late last year. While all 3 three teams have had their take on injuries woes this season, we can't necessarily use this as an excuse and we can all somehow agree that this somehow among the worst season Man city has ever experienced under Guardiola. Though still yet no of these teams were able to do anything, now others can call the EPL farmers league since no coach in the EPL can even compete with Pep at his low. It is not over yet, the title race is still open. If Manchester City drop points, I am sure Liverpool and/or Arsenal will take an opportunity to close the gap at the top. True but I can say it's definitely might be over especially for Arsenal because of their next fixtures which include: Chelsea, Man United and Tottenham while Liverpool still has Aston villa and Tottenham and Man city still have Tottenham as a big team to face. Though we can't ignore the fact that lower team can actually still cause trouble to these teams like we saw in the Liverpool vs crystal palace match especially in season ending when there are fight against being relegated. These are all of the results since my last post:
Monday 15th April
Chelsea 6-0 Everton
This was my favorite match especially as a Chelsea fan, it's been long I got this kind of joy from a game, actually what excite me more was not the win but from the fact that we finally have a player who scored up 20 goals in the EPL after Diego Costa. I thank God for this even if it is the only achievable thing Chelsea can get this year I will be satisfied since I don't have much hope on Chelsea this season especially since Poch is still the coach |

I hope are aware of the term not your key not your coin though Binance is still trustworthy and I believe it will be a better option if you're not in US or any country that doesn't have an issue with Binance.
While also I will advise you to DYOR on stacking in a non-custodian wallet like MetaMask and go for the one that's less risky especially since you recently got scammed

Just came back here after a long break and I still some being bothered about this dip few days to halving while me and a colleague yesterday was so excited about the current dip and even Pray for more during halving to accumulated more. He was worried at first that, halving will be today because we both are waiting to paid for some extra hours job we did some months back which was annoyingly taking too much to be processed, before he became more excited knowing that it was on the 20th through me,since we are going to be paid before weekend we don't have much worry about it This little dip is nothing. I have much bigger problems; the rabbits are eating the tulips we planted last fall so my wife ordered some coyote urine from Amazon and instructed me to spray it over everything. It's a tiny little spray bottle that you have to pump with your finger much like a bottle of perfume and it comes out in such a fine mist (also just like perfume)... well it went everywhere with the breeze a now I smell like a f@#$ng homeless coyote. I'm hoping it's not female coyote urine or I'm going to be in big trouble. I think I'll just skip my nature walk today.
“roadrunner if he catches you you are done” He should probably go, why should He be scared of being accompany by a part of Nature, worst comes to worst He probably would turned runner 626 if you old folks ever played/heard about the game This little dip is nothing. I have much bigger problems; the rabbits are eating the tulips we planted last fall so my wife ordered some coyote urine from Amazon and instructed me to spray it over everything. It's a tiny little spray bottle that you have to pump with your finger much like a bottle of perfume and it comes out in such a fine mist (also just like perfume)... well it went everywhere with the breeze a now I smell like a f@#$ng homeless coyote. I'm hoping it's not female coyote urine or I'm going to be in big trouble. I think I'll just skip my nature walk today.
When I look at that little dip and your problem with tulips/rabbits/spray I remember my problem with this crazy climate that has completely changed and from 30+ degrees Celsius since a few days ago, tomorrow morning they say it will be close to 0 degrees Celsius and my tulips, all other flowers and vegetables that are not resistant to low temperatures could be destroyed. I tried with certain covers that protect against low temperatures, but the wind is so strong that unfortunately it doesn't make sense. I hope the meteorologists are wrong this time. This temperature change is hitting everyone. Here it's April and in the end of April is harvesting season of Wheat, so we need a hot temperature with no rains. But the temperature is not going up nor rains are stopping. This will bring destruction to wheat that needs to be harvested. Moreover, due to this cold weather there is viral infection all around and I am also one of it's affectee. For last one week I am on bed and suffering with cough and temperature. Tried a syrup named Coferb (Ivy Leaf) for one day and it just froze the mucus inside that was otherwise coming out via nose. Now my head knocks off every time I have a cough. Just checked the market price and figured out that it's nothing compared to what I am undergoing. Man I guessed everyone is being affected by the absurdness of the climate change now, what I suffer mostly from this from the fact that there might be an heavy rainfall during the day while during the night everywhere will be so heated up. While those who may have planted crops earlier like yam, corn and the likes in my state will probably be replanting now since it the rain started pretty late here while the temperature was really heated up. |

For someone that claims to be so smart, he sure made himself look quite ignorant with this new profile. Really needs to take a permanent break from the forum til he exits puberty.
 Ahhh man this was harsh, definitely jvn will be pained but I guessed someone so shameless may not actually change |
