2161  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Is electrum a theif? on: March 22, 2021, 07:11:34 PM
Electrum isn't the culprit here, it is actually your bit ignorance of how to use the service. They already told you here; "tried sending 0.25 to a company. I was told the fees were too high... like 7000% higher than the amount I was sending?  WTF?" Why you couldn't send out your coins, they would have to debit transaction fees from the available amount in your wallet. Once your balance can't cover for all these you would not be able to withdraw except you add more bitcoin buy buying few satoshis more.

Overtime auctioning these tweets would worth what amount for their buyers? What do the buyers plan to do with them at the long run? I've seen CZ Binance sold one of his tweets as well. I'm beginning to think people are wasting money instead of donating them to charity and homeless people instead.

They may flag random users who deal with cryptocurrency and close down their bank accounts. This will create issues for cryptocurrency users. If they close down the bank account, then the users will face all sort of difficulties. Debit cards and credit cards will get blocked and making payments for utility bills and other expenses will be impossible. Still, at least the situation is better than what we have in India. In Nigeria at least the government is not stupid enough to make possession of cryptocurrency a criminal offense.
Actually this is the case here in Nigeria, they will restrict accounts of users who are dealing with cryptocurrencies but they have not made any law prohibiting possession of cryptocurrency as criminal offence. They rather directed Banks to stop dealing with exchanges offering such services in Nigeria. I'm sorry the Indian government is treating you guys this bad.
2164  Economy / Economics / Central Bank of Nigeria Official Reiterates Nigerian Residents Free to Trade BTC on: March 21, 2021, 05:41:59 PM
Quote
A senior executive with Nigeria’s central bank, Adamu Lamtek, has reportedly denied that his institution had placed restrictions on the use of cryptocurrencies. Instead, Lamtek, who is the deputy governor responsible for corporates services at the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), says his organisation’s directive only applies to the banking sector.

As a Nigerian I can confirm this particular quote from Mr Adamu is false and CBN has restricted Nigerians from using Bank accounts to buy cryptocurrencies. Though P2P has been done smoothly but there are high rate of scams involved.. People have lost huge some of money through this medium because of holistic approach by the CBN.

A lucky gambler would toss off the Benevento's odd, Juve is gradually becoming shadow of themselves. I would never imagine Juve losing to a team like Benevento in this crucial time of the season. They should bid the tittle race farewell for this season already.
2166  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 1 million BTC wallet on: March 21, 2021, 06:56:45 AM
How can anyone aside the actual owner of the said wallet guess who is the person behind the coins? I believe you're asking rhetorical questions, BTW what happened to privacy policy involved in dealing with Bitcoin and cryptocurrency generally? Are you a government agency looking for how to nab someone behind the wallet? Take some few sits back and have a nice nap you're not making any sense with this.
2167  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2020/2021 on: March 21, 2021, 05:41:54 AM
It will definitely be a tough London derby today, West Ham  would love to win Arsenal and cling the power of the top 4 from their arch City rivals (Chelsea) today. Arsenal on the other hand has been constantly winning their games recently. A draw is likely going to happen or West Ham would win with a goal margin of 1-0, 2-1,-3-2. I've stopped following Mourinho and his boys of late, they seem very considerate though, started the league very strong and they lost the vibe on the way to the glory. Aston Villa should not be a hard opponent for them to defeat IMO. It is going to be a fierce battle after all. Tottenham will score two goals and above.
2168  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Invested in alt in 2017 ..and now need help to dont do same mistake on: March 21, 2021, 05:23:35 AM
Take a big lesson from your mistake, take advice from the experienced ones here and buy the right coins for a long term hold. Maximize your investment and take profit at the right time and invest in projects that are very reliable. The lesson here mainly is situated on investing on the right coins which wouldn't fail while holding them for 1-5 years minimum. The veterans here have made the same mistake as you and every novice as well. You can follow top traders giving signals on Twitter as well. You're likely going to gain profit at the long run.
2169  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 on: March 20, 2021, 01:38:39 PM
Either Real Madrid or Barcelona will contend with ATM for the title if they fail to win this week's encounter. They were leading with more than 10 points the gap is even closer than I thought. It would be an interesting end of the season clash.

Celta Vigo Vs Real Madrid
The return of Sergio Ramos against Atalanta was phenomena he's always in control of the defence, today's match should not be tasking for Real to win with the Spaniard at the back. Benzema is back to himself, he displayed some quality plays on Tuesday night as well. Vinicius needs to charge himself like the City and Barcelona boys in his age group, he seems to miss too many chances.
My predictions 0-2.

You're likely going to get scammed if you are holding some Bitcoins, reason been you're eager to make money fast and it is people like yourself that's is targeted by scammers. Bitcoin investment over the years have made people money for a fortunate living either through holding it as an asset or trading it. It is all up to you to decide what to do with your coins. Be attentive and make sure your PK are kept private and safe.There are coins which are likely going to repeat the same uptrend movement as ETH, BNB and the likes you just have to do your diligence by researching on what to invest over time.
2171  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin millionaire lists reasons most will never be rich on: March 20, 2021, 06:14:14 AM
He had rather took his advice to careers and developments it is not fitted here in the coven of Bitcoin discussions, he bought Bitcoin hoping to get rich fine. He was able to purchase some bitcoin hoping to get to $100k mark and he sells off to be ×2 richer how does this relate with the list of opinions he listed? It is not relatable to be honest. His views of bitcoin is from personal perspective.
2172  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Congrats to the Diamond Hands Bitcoin Holders! on: March 20, 2021, 05:36:19 AM
It is not an easy task to hold bitcoin for such a long time for you to be a millionaire through it, they deserve the accolades they are getting. What is worthy of note is; most of these people have money, they have patient and it is paying off for them. Diamond hands or not regardless we are celebrated as well. We are champions for keeping the technology growing is a feet we have collectively achieved.
2173  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin price would hit $288,000 this year, according to this metric on: March 19, 2021, 08:50:23 AM
but what is the moon for bitcoin because clearly the current prices isn't the moon that we are looking for.
Whatever the outcome might be, it wouldn't still be the moon everyone is looking for, it is a different moon for different Holder and different trader.  The earliest birds must have arrived at their purposeful moon. If bitcoin should hit the $280 mark, it will definitely be a great feet for everyone who must have had a connection with the gem.
2174  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Elon Musk name once again used to fool people by hackers! on: March 19, 2021, 07:20:58 AM
Sometimes when people see a great promise for a major benefit/profit-their minds stop working.
Even I fell a victim into a BTC scam last year.I've lost only 100USD worth of BTC,so I was lucky I guess.
I just wanted to test the service offered by the scammer with a small amount of BTC and I got scammed.
I was expecting to be scammed,but I still got surprised,when I was scammed. Grin
I get why people are falling for this "double your Bitcoins" scam,even though the scam doesn't make any sense from a logical perspective.
Greed actually lured you even when you knew it was scam you still tested the dept of the River with both of your feet. You'd be happy it was only $100 worth of BTC the scam cost you. We just have to be be careful and stay safe to avoid such scams around.
2175  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Elon Musk name once again used to fool people by hackers! on: March 19, 2021, 06:20:05 AM
Sometimes exposure will eradicate such petty scams, greed will definitely lure a lot of newbies into the hands of these wicked scammers. Imagine someone promising to double your Bitcoins in 30 minutes isn't this enough indicator to alert you it is an obvious scam? The max supply of bitcoin is fixed how on earth will such a person be able to manufacture ×2 of your bitcoin within a timeframe of 30 minutes? I hope a lot of people learn through this thread.
2176  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: How future applications would be !? on: March 19, 2021, 02:25:03 AM
The future is very unpredictable and it's very clear that modification to current available technology will continue to happen we'd be seeing different dApps created out of the existing Blockchain application like using AI to develop games through Blockchain and improve national security through crypto. Everything is possible with science and technology. We can be hopeful that we live long enough to witness some of our expected realities.
2177  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin is for Holders! on: March 19, 2021, 02:07:41 AM
Tell me about it, if I have had the patience and the hands of steel I would be smiling more, I sold a good part of all my btc earnings instead of hold, now looking back makes me want to turn the hands of time but unfortunatelyit is not possible,  
I totally agree, the best strategy for btc is hold and relax, honestly if you hold btc don't panic when the price is on the down trend because the recovery part is always the best moment  Cool
but it is very difficult to hold bitcoin in a relaxed manner, if we get a little profit, immediately think of selling Cheesy
Reason for the notion Holding between Bitcoin is not for the weak hands. You have got to have steel hands, whatever the market value is at the point where you're tempted to sell resist the urge and be vigilant a bit more. To me it has to do with personal diligence and  convention to hold Bitcoin through the years even when they price was tempting at some point. If I were an investor in the early days of Bitcoin I would have sold off in 2017 market bull run not minding how it would look like in the future. Look at 2021 very bullish and the surge is not even retracing.

A lot of good analysts are even predicting it to hit $100k and above. If one develops the commitment to hold on to his/her assets for a long term use I don't think there would be a problem with holding bitcoin, IMHO.
2178  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League Discussion Thread on: March 18, 2021, 02:13:38 PM
Anyone know why the odds on Rangers are slowly going up? With the Rangers having a home advantage, a few players sitting out for Slavia Prague and a small advantage on the away goal I was expecting the odds to shift in favor of the Rangers since they had solid results at home and currently on a long streak.
It could be as a result of these messing players, they already have an aggregate score of 1-1, a 0-0 draw will scale them through despite the growing odds I'm confident Rangers will definitely put in a great effort to dismantle the away team.



On the other hand Manchester United looks incredible as Paul Pogba is back in the squad, they could beat Milan today and advance to the next stage of the competition.
2179  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Sold my first Bitcoin and am happy on: March 18, 2021, 08:43:23 AM
If 5% selling could make you this happy, it means you're holding a lot of bitcoin in your bag. It feels good you are gradually paying yourself for been patient over the years to have earned massive through the Bull season. Diversifying your portfolio into other shares is quite awesome.
2180  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why do ordinary people feel afraid of Bitcoin? on: March 17, 2021, 10:20:00 PM
They are simply scared of moving cashlessly and being rich digitally. Some are scared because they don't have a good knowledge of what Bitcoin is all about. Some need to be enlightened, educated and coached. They're not ordinary people IMO. Once they find value in it through advertisements or a payment gateway they wish to interact with accepts Bitcoin as the easiest alternative; they will have no option than to get involved in the fat growing technology. It is fine to get scared of what you don't know about how it operates and it also involves personal funds. Finance disrupts security and everyone is always cautious of what involves their financial investments.
