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.
2182  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.

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.
2184  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.
2185  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.

I dey always talk am say this forum, airdrop, bounty and crypto entirely na eye opener to how we dey suffer for 9ja. Imagine person to sit down for him house weekly under no obligation or restrictions from anybody dey make cool-clean money. While the one way dey tied to our birthrights dey dey looted by few corrupt individuals. 2023 go come, dem go patronise us with just 2 miserable candidates again we go go for the one we fit reason say he do better. But na worst parole we dey Chuck hand inside. N-Power benefactors supposed dey permanently employed. The government get all the machinery to make the effort work. But they rather recycle the system, if another government come in power. The whole scheme would stopped. Creating another havoc to the developed potential problem solving scheme, we need to hold our leaders by all means. We need better life in 9ja, no be slaves we be.

Why don't they? They feel say, everybody go be mumu forever. We need to harness our natural resources in building a working nation, we don't need to fold our hands always we can collectively do this.
2187  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are you a lone bettor or a competitive one? on: March 17, 2021, 08:33:53 PM
Gambling generally deals with 90% luck and 5-10% analysis and emotions. You don't know what your fellow bettor might decide to pick that would be the best option at the market, it sometimes encourages one to relate with other bettors to understand many things better. It's actually great relating with some other bettors who reason alike and analyse together.

Quote
I'm currently lucky to be in top-10,
Congratulations on your feet, it's actually awesome relating with others who are on the same field with yourself, competition sometimes actually grows one.
2188  Economy / Economics / Re: Can the world be without poverty on: March 17, 2021, 04:33:14 PM
Everyone would judge base on the aspect they can derive physical examples from I myself isn't left out in the conglomerate. Poverty can only be lessened, to be eliminated completely isn't realistic enough. For economy to balance there must be the first class citizens, the upper class, the middle class and the lower class citizens. Poverty can be lessened through offering a service to foot medical bills, shelter, feeding, education and basic home needs. Through education poverty can be lessened.

The government isn't the only one who needs to eliminate the risk factors involved in poverty by controlling the boundaries between the first class and lower class citizens. It is a mindset of both individuals in the two classes to derive a helping hand to reduce it.
2189  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Probability of cryptocurrency apocalypse on: March 17, 2021, 07:20:47 AM
The only way that I can think of that will cause a cryptocurrency apocalypse is when we are dependent solely on technology for our transactions, fiat will be a thing of the past and every payment is all digital, and when that happens, the only apocalypse that will happen is when there is a global EMP that will wipeout all the electronics in the world, with no computers for back ups, digital money will become useless but that too will not likely happen because electronics protection is definitely going to be innovated along with other things.
I don't think fiat can completely be wiped out, but this is all illusional discussions, setting up examples of possible scenarios that could happen with the fast growing sector.  Bitcoin theft just like every other currencies happens and will continue to happen. It is all left for the user who wishes to save Bitcoin as stock for a long time to learn tactics on how to outsmart the potential fraudster by using custodian wallets maybe. Security is a very important aspect of Bitcoin that doesn't need to be taken lightly, exposing your private keys to a non trusted exchange already puts you in risk of hack as the OP has suggested.
2190  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread on: March 17, 2021, 06:45:40 AM
Real Madrid always have something about them when it comes to the champions league. They don't leave any stone on turned, they are always about the winning and as such, it wasn't a surprise to watch them triumph over Atlanta today like there were just a work over team.
Manchester City on the other hand was a no question game and they did themselves, the couch and fans proud by winning the game without even conceiving a goal.
Obviously anyone who wasn't biased with fair judgement would know how powerful Real Madrid gets when it comes to Champions League matches, yesterday wouldn't be an exception despite their recent decline in form. Hoping to see Chelsea in the next round today, a draw for them will be enough to clinch them onto the next round. Manchester City showed how hungry they are to test the European glory; their dominance isn't just on the domestic league. Hoping to see them in the final against PSG or Bayern.

MurAll (PAINT) at $0.00399200 in your link above, having a marketcap of $38,384,559, also having a circulatory supply. This makes me think NFT can also work on trading the way normal coins are working, which means I can buy NFT or sell for trading purpose in which the price may increase or decrease depending on demand and supply?

Christie's sell an NFT by digital artist Beeple for $69m recently, this sound like those Mona Lisa painted by though non fungible, this kind of NFT are not for such trading purpose like MurAll (PAINT) because it is bought by only one person?

Which best article can I know the A-Z of NFT? Never mind my question if not correct, I do not know much about NFT.
Be like NFT be like those Picasso arts and drawings. NFT na their virtual representatives. See how much CZ Binance sold one of his tweets as he converter it to NFT. I never really study the industry but it is likely  going to be the next biggest industry in the crypo sphere. The era of Defi is fast fading off.

2193  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Nigerian Bitcointalk Community Hangout. {Current topic: Mining} on: March 13, 2021, 12:29:22 PM
Lol. Nobody fit advice this government to encourage anything that would aid the wellbeing of her citizens, just take a look at the regulation placed on crypto exchanges and banks. Omo, if person set mining equipments/firm for 9ja government go off him light I swear make we no use keyboards dey deceive ourselves. Mining no go work for 9ja.

No be lie oh, I no believe mining go fit work self, the challenges much. First you go need government approval so you fit get constant light on a low budget because if you wan run am yourself e go be for your head, dem go use bill kill you. You know say even the oyibo miners self dem no dey too profit like that immediately unless bitcoin just provoke run dey go up and e be say dem been dey hold the previous coins dem mine.

Make we just leave the mining matter as na dead end. If the OG's wey dey the game for nigeria never reason am, e must get why maybe dem don waka for am see say no way that side oh. If you noticed all of dem go trading and promotion like ambassador can of thing for projects wey relate to the industry. If you think say mining fit work for nigeria, air you own opinion, convince us wella.
I thank God say you sef dey reason the same way with me; if e truly go work, I believe many Nigerians go done dey do am. See other sectors sef wey no need power supply and much government approvals sef still dey suffer to blossom, talk more of mining wey involve plenty electricity consumptions.
Setting the firm up as a sole proprietorship go still hard you. Reasons plenty for ground, people for your backyard fit dey do amebo give government. Government too no come dey friendly with the crypto industry. The only thing wey go work properly na to find small money enter countries within Africa wey no too dey harsh to crypto with their policies and then get better electricity supply and crime rate low for there.


Person no need dey Nigeria to survive by all means, you fit dey anywhere dey make your money and our people talk say Anywhere you find peace, try make am your home
Na my own two cent be this, in case anybody dey plan set up the firm reason all these points wey just join together first.

Baba, you see as BTC dey fly dey go Baba dey para gan.

Where problem fit dey na to learn am but we go still run am, abi no be just computer pressing something lol.

Wetin be bitcoin problem self, e no wan fall small make we use our useless naira wey dey bank buy, e dey pain me ehh. Now e dey $50k plus. E no dey even carry e brothers along well, e just dey show dem small small love no major rubbers.

Assuming the love been much Ethereum for don blow go far na, anyways other get any coins una eye set for make person do small waka for the coin head see if I fit buy small.

Plenty issues dey but this one be one of the major ones wey dey drag us down currently. Bitcoin no wan dey put body with all these amateur coins dem wey person for fit smile small.

About the issue of electricity which is very important for miners to have access to cheap and constant electricity. In Nigeria, most regions do not have access to constant electricity, but there are some areas with constant electricity. I remembered the time I spent in Katsina, although not all areas have electricity, but there was a local government called Batagarawa where almost all tertiary institutions are located, they gave access to 23 hours electricity in a day or more. Also the Katsina town itself have constant electricity, in the GRA, if electricity is poor, there will still be 12 hours electricity in a day, but oftenly having access to more than 23 hours electricity. I chatted with our of our Nigerians that told me of 23 hours electricity in his area too. Although, in my area, electricity is very poor.

What comes to my mind is that, there are places there are constant electricity in Nigeria but few. But, the issue is to know if the electricity is cheap or not. But, there are two types of payment in Nigeria, the prepaid and the post paid. Using post paid, Electricity company in my state do not check Metre at all, thy calculate it based on how big companies and houses are, people can take advantage of this to mine Bitcoin or other crypto assets in Nigeria.

I am not sure about postpaid, it might not be cheap, but users have to calculate this on their own because the bills differ from state to state. I noticed we in my town paid less in electricity than people is another town. Because of this, it will be good for the person that want to mine bitcoin or any other crypto asset in Nigeria to calculate this on his own.

First by checking the watt the miners will consume
Also the watt others like cooling machines will consume during hot weather
Checking also the bitcoin paid by mining pool for the hashes generated for the miners he want to buy.

All thes will be used to calculate if mining is profitable in his area of location in Nigeria. Mining profitability will really differ from area to area.

About the issue if miners, I do not also think ordering from countries like China should be a barrier, but having retailers selling miners here in the Country will make them cheaper, getting it from abroad is not bad after the profitability calculation is made and positive.
The issues about poor electricity no be lie, some things dey very stable and commendable when you're using some parts of North as  case studies in Nigeria. Spent few days in a town in North not long a go. To tell you the truth of mining or any thing of such to happen in Nigeria, the person go actually prefer North to any other part of the country but there is something wey no dey well for North like insecurities and banditry and you know say na people wey dey do all these kind work wey get better thing na him dem dey target.

Nigeria no be country for mining except the miner get another means to generate him personal electricity and security. That go even too dey expensive to maintain. Untill when government need make him improve electricity supply and availability of security personnels, a lot of things go still dey pass us by.

Gambling is a very uncertain luck. Sometimes you will regret a certain action you took prior to the end of the bet. Sometimes what you did would play out to be one of the best decisions you ever made. Most times I see those cash out features as trick by the bookies, because however the percentage is been calculated the bookies always take the wider margin of the profit at the long run.

Las-Las, e con be like say, all this matter way dey the country on crypto ban no really affect anybody for the forum o, life still dey go on softly. I no feel am at all, e con be like say, na only people way no dey forum dey cry the cry say them shot down there account and things like that, where government power reach.

Na why e good to participate wella for the forum o, nothing fit shake you because, you dey informed on how to guide your thing and play safe.
Congrats to all of una way dey here and escape this government palaba, una cajality strong no br chaise!

Lol government no really get the power to ban crypto na only to regulate their own money dem fit, no be by who dey forum or not Nigerians just dey go school to read, understand and assimilate sometimes dey be my people problem.  But the forum sef dey really contribute to much knowledge wey person gather dey use protect him sef ahead of any problems wey for arise. Highest Binance talk say dem no go send money for person bank account again men to resort to P2P and OTC trading. If e too much another means to go still open.

This public matter wey VP been talk for Twitter few days back just gimme the false impression say; our leaders really Sabi the right thing na wickedness just full their minds. How you go sleep wake up say you wan ban wetin dey give your citizens daily bread? Plenty career opportunities done comot for this industry wey make make the economy dey flow well at some point. Make we try dey dey careful sha.
