1. You can easily make online money with Bitcoin.

You're right, one can make more money with bitcoin and same way loose more money as well if care is not taken because there are things that are expected of each investors or trader to do in ensuring they are more closer to making profits than loosing money than they expect.

2. Bitcoin trading is very safe and secure because it has been created with all the security checks in place

There's no risk in trading bitcoin since it can never be like other cryptos or tokens that always create fear and panic over their investments, but we must be deliberate in everything we do while trading.

3. If you know how to use Bitcoin trading successfully then you can definitely generate more online money.

This is absolutely true, aside from trading, you could also generate money just by holding bitcoin for some time.
2402  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Ledger hardware wallet offering custody for seed backups on: May 18, 2023, 09:49:11 PM
A lot of people are smashing their ledgers into pieces when they announced a service to custody people’s seeds. This sparked outrage because it makes it possible for the secret seed to be extracted from the device.

A year ago or so they claimed it’s impossible for the seed to leave the device and now they are claiming it’s possible.

No funds were stolen but it seems that hardware wallets aren’t as safe as people assumed. The biggest issue here is that it’s not open source and no one can verify if it’s actually secure.

What are your thoughts?


Which seems to me a very stupid move by ledger since up to now he has always said the opposite, the fact is that even the other hardware wallets that have open source software actually have the firmware of the closed secure element, this is quite normal because you don't want to reveal the cards on the table to avoid attacks but I repeat that what the ledger wants to do is not scary for me, i.e. the backup or the extraction of the seed which at this point is clear that it can be extracted but the fact that it wants storing seeds on different providers and these are all exposed to the network, so since ledger doesn't have a good reputation in data retention this is what scares me the most

How can a non custodial hardware wallet perform the function of a custodial wallet and yet expect people to make ise of such, we aren't novice anymore, at least by now the whole experience of what is happening that people are loosing their asset to the hands of custodial exchanges should habe taught us enough lessons to avoid anything that has to do with custody of what belongs to is with another party, I've also seen a centralized exchange claiming they are building a decentralized exchange wallet for it users, what a mistery, we have to be careful because they are painting black as white for us and we should not accept such or fall in for such.

As to this occurrence with ordinals on the bitcoin network, the solution to adopt can be as many as possible depending on individuals, some may put in for tracking the mempool size when less busy, some may diversify their investment, others may be able to afford the transaction fee since it is believed to have dropped down unlike before and lastly some may also diverted to the use of lightning network, but irregardless of the decision taken, the bitcoin network remains relevant as before.
2404  Economy / Speculation / Re: Know your time to HOLD on: May 18, 2023, 09:35:11 PM
I have waited for the price to reach $25k for me to start pumping my money, it never reach there.

If you're conversant with the bitcoin price you would have seen that there are times earlier this year whe bitcoin price go dip to about $15,000 before it begins to rally round the zone of $20k and now to where it is, which means we cannot predict the volatility as to which direction ot goes or when it makes such moon

I don't like to sound desperate, do I sound desperate or determine to make money?

It's because you eeded a means to invest on a profitable investment makes you decided to invest on bitcoin, everyone of us has this as a mindset in one way or the other towards this even though that may not be the major reason why we chose bitcoin

Bitcoin HODLing for years can not be a lost affair.

You can never lost your asset as long as you're holding it on a decentralized wallet a d have the keys to the wallet with you alone, you will always have a good edge for a better future with your holdings.
2405  Other / Politics & Society / Re: All bad - like the main one? on: May 18, 2023, 02:23:00 PM
Why is there such a concept in society, if the leader (no matter which society or group) is a bad person, then everyone who is with him or under him is the same.]

Have you heard about good maners attract it kinds while same to evil deeds, if the head is bad, also expect the body thesame way, that's why any bad leader will only be attracted to the group of bar people and a good leader tge same way, they were all birds of thesame feathers.

Why is it that if a person is bad and they start treating him badly, the same attitude automatically relates to his subordinates, because they are not him. How to avoid humiliation in the social sphere if you are good and your boss is bad?

Even the bad people wanted to be treated the good way, if you can't beat them then don't join them, but when you're been trusted in whatever thing you do, it will create a way for you to have peace even while amidst the bad ones.
2406  Other / Off-topic / Re: Working over 20 years still poor on: May 18, 2023, 02:08:15 PM
We all have the same 24 hours in a day, some very wealthy people come from nothing. It all depends on mindset & work ethic. Some people just will not accept failure or even mediocrity. Attitude is very important, if you work hard & always try to better yourself then on average you will do better than a lazy person who doesn’t like putting the hours in. Just work hard & be the best version of yourself.

You're being right mate, can we account what we use our time for within the 24hrs everyone is blessed with each day, we can't expect to have same result with others busy in developing theirselves, what are we doing, are those things worth accountable for, do they add value to our lives, can we be proud of having something to show forth as a result, we must be very careful not to let same opportunities ahead of us pass us by with other things we do that gives us no chance to make discovery of our own self.
2407  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: What will you do when you discover that the founder of BTC is your father? on: May 18, 2023, 02:02:39 PM
Well i believe that this is more or less like a mirage or an illusion but if it happens to be so that my father is the one behind the development of bitcoin or any huge project that has turn a global success, i will do nothing than to position myself to learn more and remain more loyal than ever before, i will ensure that i key into the full understanding of the entire system because that will be the only thing that can make be have mastery over the asset and legacy he has developed wgich he will leave behind after he's gone.
2408  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: One overlooked factor. on: May 18, 2023, 01:58:12 PM
I was just wondering, one reason that has been overlooked as to why BTC has remained a dominant value of exchange to those who have come to accept it is, the advent of the internet and the idea of cryptocurrencies being on a block chain network which operates on the internet or online as fondly called.

There's no how you can made mention of cryptocurrency any where without first considering bitcoin in anything, not because it's the first cry in the world but because it's the only most acceptable and reliable digital currency in cryptocurrency that has maintained it value over 14 years ago, other cryptocurrencies are pirate copy of the first digital currency bitcoin.

As long as institutions in the country are dependent on the internet or web to transact and carry on with daily trades and commerce, cryptocurrencies would remain a feature that would  keep getting audience and users.
No matter how the government tries to ban or limit the use of cryptocurrencies, the main option should be to stop the internet from functioning. I bet this can't happen, as the disaster bound to happen would be tremendous.

Government cannot stop bitcoin, if not they would have done that along the ago, they have although make every necessary moves to achieve that but all avail not because bitcoin has maintained it standard and also meet the target required needs of the people.
2409  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Too good to be true? on: May 18, 2023, 01:34:19 PM
Is it possible to invest 100$ in altcoin and turn to 7,000$? Have this ever happened to anyone on here? Is this even possible?.

It's very possible and has happened before this time, many people that have invested in some year back made a huge s of money on altcoins and they hodl them, the target is all about the bullrun season whereby the bitcoin reaches it all time high and set a new record for another, during this period, every other cryptocurrencies also surges and move up, but only few may not make reasonable changes and try to go down the opposite, those are the ones we often refer to as shitcoins.
2410  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you like Meme Coins ? on: May 18, 2023, 01:27:06 PM
These days everyone is talking about the Meme coins and they are trending. Do you like investing in MEME coins ?

Apparently yes, because there's potential in them to make money provided that one has the understanding of how to run and manage everything concerning altcoins, this has to do with being experienced in it, talking the bold step for risk and making an investment on the desirable coin and that will last long unlike the ones that dies along the way like flame fading away, some investors have made pretty cool money in the past but now we have only few once that are true and genuine projects.

quote author=noormcs5 link=topic=5452658.msg62241372#msg62241372 date=1684043777]
Do you like Meme coins and what are your Opinions on Meme coins. I understand Meme coins have no use case but they have hype and that's what you need to make money. Yes, the narrative of Meme coin is very short lived but it may give you 50x or 100x returns within no time.
[/quote]

The higher their hype the higher the risk, they can fall at any time without prior notice to the least bearable amount, one must be very conscious of the investment and not to take too much time before selling once they realize some earnings through it.
2411  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to Assess a Memecoin and Not Get Scammed ;) on: May 18, 2023, 12:59:14 PM
There's no guarantee no matter how that one cannot get scamm with these memecoins becau they are many, we are only seeing pepe coin now trending, we don't know which one next, maybe by the the present ones would have also been out in place must as those before them, so whenever you are investing on NFTs, have it at the nack of your mind that it's a risk taking idea ad it's fifty fifty, you can also do your own research in finding more about them.
2412  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New coin - PEPE on: May 18, 2023, 12:37:42 PM
PEPE Coin is a meme coin's trending in the cryptocurrency market, which was surprised to many people including me, seen PEPE Coin listed in Binance Exchange platform in a short period of time, which early investors really Cash out with amazing profits with respect of the PEPE Coin price at the first stage and second stage of pump is going to take place as a normal culture of crypto.

We shouldn't get confused with the hype on Pepe coin or the enlisting Binance has done towards the memecoin, this is not their first time of doing euch on all other altcoins that have turned a scam today, we have a number of them like that, but let's expect more to come out of this before and after the halving, but investors must also take caution with their investment not to go too far in putting hige amount they can't afford to loose into the coin because such can speedily rise and thesame time comes down completely.
2413  Economy / Gambling / Re: Researching for Upcoming Game on: May 18, 2023, 11:30:22 AM
If people could directly find this Bitcointalk forum through search engines, social media, or other sites, they would not have a bad experience of feeling cheated by a scam casino. And for people who want to create a new casino, you can also interact with us here to find out what games you want to add to the new casino so they can immediately work and create a casino with a different look. But those people may have their own views on making casinos, and maybe they follow the existing trends.

The funny aspect of this is that you will hardly see this forum being advertised on any social media platform but yet it's ever relevant and well recognized globally, but through the use of the search engine as you've mentioned, one can see this platform as one of the recommendation given on articles or threads created about gambling on the forum, but for the sake of those already on the forum, they have the upper edge to utilize every opportunities found with the gambling sites present on this forum.
2414  Economy / Gambling / Re: How does AI gambling sound? on: May 18, 2023, 10:35:19 AM
Of course we can`t predict 100% even if we have all information. If it would be so, we needn`t all these competitions - we can just predict the result and don`t waste time. But i think that we can call the AI the next step of the statistics. Using the statistics we can make an analyze of some event. The AI can make the same just faster. And without human factor.

Using AI is not a bad idea, but we must know that it is not in every aspect of gambling that this technology should be applicable for us, there are scenarios that we will need the human thinking a d reasonings to effect a decision, everything is not to be keft in the hands of this technology without us taking proper and necessary actions before we may not be able ro anymore, though i believe in the many advantages the AI technology brought in so far, thing which should have taken time could be achieved in more lesser time.
2415  Economy / Gambling / Re: Enough to consider a casino scam? on: May 18, 2023, 10:10:56 AM
That’s why its very important to know about the casino before investing any money into it but if it’s actually a well reputed casino and they have declined your kyc verification I highly doubt it’s a scam considering the amount was 8000$. I say this keeping in mind that crypto currencies make insane amounts of money and they wouldn’t ruin their reputation over a small amount as 8000$.

We can't predict them enough but all we should do is our own bedt in ensuring that we have dealt with every single opportunities that may try to pull us into their trap, scam in gambling today is not a joke because they ensure that they come up with that thing they think entices you about gambling to get you captivated, that's why we must also not be too greedy or desperate in making online money from gambling.
2416  Economy / Gambling / Re: Consider open live casino (street gambling games) on: May 18, 2023, 09:51:50 AM
Street gambling is often common with those that have the background of being born on the street or lived in such environment where street gambling is more predominant there, it's a local and olden days way of gambling right before the online gambling platforms comes onboard, people enjoy this kind of gambling because they make friendliness through it, but nowadays it has turn to something else whereby street gambling is believed to be practiced by the giants on the street, this are the extremely addicted and weird local set of gamblers.
2417  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Some needed features of an online casino. on: May 18, 2023, 09:38:47 AM
I think ive heard some casinos that has features that was called responsible gambling on which they will monitor the activity of the gambler is he is already over betting or spending too much time on gambling on which it is really good

It's good on the gamblers side but bot encouraging on the casino side because that's part of the ways they make more money to their casino business, for an average gambler, i think settings control measures shouldn't be a difficult task to do, some cannot just set some limits to how far they go in gambling or any other activities they do.

the problem with this is that for sure only few casino will implement this because the profit that they will earning is reduced unless they really care on gamblers. Though if there are really regulations about it then it could be a good use to prevent addictions.

Most ofbthe casinos will not even support this at all because it will not work in their favour and talking about addiction to the gamblers involved, it's better they don't have the money at all at hand because they will always finds a means to ensure that they gambles either in physical or online.
2418  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are there play and pay later casinos? on: May 18, 2023, 09:14:19 AM
This practice is not something Casinos would make cause people would abuse it. It would be so easy to bet with their money and then if they lose it all they would end up in jail and still Casino would be left without it.

Considering gamblers that were so addicted to gambling and those that have nothing else as a source of income than what they get through gambling activities, this may not be a good idea because a large numbers of gamblers will always wanted to partake in taking loan to gamble which is not good to encourage, the casinos will be chasing after them for loan recovery, and as we all knows it's more common to loose in gambling than winning.
2419  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Some Oldest Casinos in the World on: May 18, 2023, 08:57:48 AM
    Ever wondered about the oldest casinos in the world? Well I know we are all about winning and avoiding losses from our bets however, I think it wouldn't be a bad idea if we learn about some of the oldest casinos that has been around. It will surely be of benefit to you, maybe not today but someday.

Here is a disclaimer for the moderators. I am not in anyway affiliated with the websites whose link I will be providing. I do not write for them, neither am I promoting them.

To me i see no need in putting some of their respective links since it's not that we will all be interested in going through them one after the other, but you can only provided a link source to where those informations were extracted from, this will always serves as a cover for all, as for this informations and research made, i will like to say you have done well so good for bringing up such topic, some olden days casinos and gambling website could be remembered by those who have long age experience in this gambling before we started in this modern world.[/list]
2420  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I am only trying to stay safe by gambling less on: May 18, 2023, 08:39:10 AM
We often intend to play little and gamble small, but unfortunately that is often an illusion. If you like to gamble too much, you may end up betting larger amounts over time. The problem is also often that you no longer have the realization that you are gambling. You have a blur in your eyes and then you are only concerned with money. But gambling is not the way to stay safe, it would be better to stay away from it altogether.

We can still gambles and stay safe, ask me how and i will tell, gambling needs a disciplined kind of lifestyle that must be made with caution, not everything the eyes see it must get attracted to, there's a way we can limit our addiction to gambling if we truly intends to do so, there's always a way we can gamble responsibly without having a negative impact in our life, this is a game of freedom, it's a choice we make while gambling, if to have fun or make money.
