Op from your topic
Quote
who Want To Bet On 2024 USA elections?
, do you have free flight and provision of international passport with free ticket, if yes we are here to witness the election and come back to Nigeria.
Trump might win this election if he is still coming as rumour carried. Joe Biden is not strong enough to pilot the country affairs. He even fell down last week when he was in the gathering with other dignitaries. And the security men raised him up. US needs a very vibrate president in the country to do well for the citizens and the world at large. My speculation goes to Trump.
2643  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Advice to a Friend on: June 05, 2023, 06:34:02 PM
"The advancement is so fast.  Can they just slow down" this is coming from a friend who is a noob and still trying to find his way around Bitcoin.

He already invested in Bitcoin some time ago and tries to dedicate at least 30minutes to 1hour to learn about Bitcoin after work. Recently when we met and we're discussing about his learnings and what new thing he has learned. He started to mention the latest advancement in the Bitcoin space from Bitcoin ordinals, BRC-20, etc. and how he gets confused trying to keep up. Because it is like as soon as he's trying to understand on concept another new one is springing up somewhere. I get his point. Most times, this can be really overwhelming. I think there is a fear of missing out here and being behind. What advice do you have to give to my friend who is trying to juggle getting grounded in the basics and keeping up with these latest update on Bitcoin?
To understand bitcoin is not a day job but it is a continuous learning. Knowing the latest terms in bitcoin is nothing but just the preamble of the blockchain. If really he is studying bitcoin he has to go deep on bitcoin blockchain software and if possible to the white paper so  lot of things will be revealing to him. Tell him that he should not give up and let him be patient since has started investing in bitcoin, he has to learn perseverance and risk taking.  If he tries to rush the learning process then he will miss out many things that he would have known before that level.

Our children will not be as lucky as we are, we have to help them to know about bitcoins on time so they can have some for themselves. We are lucky because we are of age to know and understand what bitcoin is at this time when the value of bitcoins is still expected to increase not like our children who have no idea and it may be too late for them to make any gain from bitcoin when they finally know about bitcoins if you leave them. A good gift any parent can give to their children for their future is to enlighten their children about bitcoins so they have some knowledge about it at an early age and buy some for the children even before they can begin to get for themselves. What do you think?
Let me tell op. Our children will be even much more luckier than we. Are you not luckier than your parents in technology? The next generation that is coming to the blockchain will be experts. Do you know that we came to know bitcoin when we have already selected other courses in schools so the knowledge we have in cryptocurrency ecosystem is not wide. It is only those who are in the main field of computer programming  and web developers and other computer bases that are doing well in bitcoin. But the generation that is coming will pick up bitcoin as a course in the university and learn/study well to the maximum.
Therefore, we can not compare ourselves to the up coming generation on bitcoin.
2645  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does the world still see Bitcoin as a scam, or is it just a lack of interest? on: June 05, 2023, 05:57:35 PM
Many people are waiting for Bitcoin regulation to start getting involved but it's impossible because Bitcoin is not a security like how the SEC hoped for, so therefor those who wishes for a regulation will wait forever, some people do think that Bitcoin is a huge Ponzi scheme but I believe that those who are waiting for the government to give them the buying order are so many, People have gotten used to following what the government says, only small portion of the world population likes Bitcoin better.
That is the dream of their day. They think bitcoin was created through the obnoxious policies of the so call government. Let them wait while their mates are making it from bitcoin every day. They are still sleeping they will wake in the year 2090 and by then they will regret.

Government can't regulate bitcoin and the only thing or institution that government can control is the exchange platforms because those onez operate under their jurisdiction but bitcoin is a global asset that has no specific office for questioning.
2646  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: European Sex Championship 😳, Will you Bet? on: June 04, 2023, 10:01:28 PM
Sweden has declared sex as a sport, and is set to launch its first tournament tagged "European sex Championship" on the 8th day of June, 2023, this means it's about 4 days left until the tournament begin?
Until they launch it, I have not taken has a sport. In this case I will see before believing. How the sport will look like? When they are fucking and first to tire will be become a loser? Let us see how is going to happen if they really launch such game in the world of sport.

You as a gambler..
1. What do you make of this?, is sex truly a sport and is it supposed to be carried out openly?
2. If casinos pick this up and make provisions available to users to bet on this supposed European sex Championship, would you bet?

Lets have some serious and healthy discussion here..

As for me it is not a sport but beginning since when I started watching American and European movies sex is done publicly in most cases. So if they are bringing it to the public we should not be surprised. Even blue film is from them to the other parts of the world. When casino inserted sex game in their casinos gallery for gamblers to play, well I don't think the real game will be there but the animated version will be there gamblers to use. And if the real game is there too people will be interested to play the game if people interested to watch pornography movies.
2647  Economy / Economics / Re: The impact of artificial intelligence, chat GPT on the crypto market. on: June 04, 2023, 08:55:54 PM
Apart from helping people in the cryptocurrency ecosystem ChatGPT will also help people in other areas of life mostly specifically in the educational sector. Because it is there students do more research and studies. And in the blockchain it will help programmers to solve many issues. But the abuse of the technology is very high.
Users in the forum and other platforms and also in real life research centers definitely are abusing it. Now many people only rely on the technology to provide every answer of their need. They are not making effort to write things from their brains but copy and paste works are everywhere.
The AI ChatGPT which they used will still report them again Grin

The matter what death is inevitable there is possibility that people were envy about the guy. In life whatever you do people will hate you. I don't believe it because of the given trading information to friends or customers but because enviness for his appearance and his social lifestyle would make the enemy to strike him to death.

But keeping quiet with you Wealth assets is good because really it will save you from untimely dead and unnecessary attacked by the opposition. There are sometimes that your best friend is the one launched those attacks because enviness. But in the revise part it is good people know your sources of income because if not they use names to tag you and say blood money or he has join cult or did ritual to get money. And with that people will afraid to come close to you.
2649  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Quick Bitcoin questions on: June 04, 2023, 08:13:24 PM
Op I see your question has nice one because bitcoin is meant for p2p transactions at all time and anytime. The store for value is for investment purpose while the daily use of the coin is p2p. Now assuming my country adopt bitcoin as a payment method, and we make transaction every second among ourselves as business purpose and the transaction fee is high as this days, do you think people will use it for their daily basis for payment of goods and services? Because Bank to Bank  is just 0.080$ and BTC fee is up to $4-5. So the thing is some how for people to use. And for this, those who are not fully use the asset might not even come again because fear of the fee.
2650  Economy / Gambling / Re: How does AI gambling sound? on: June 03, 2023, 03:32:46 PM
Can you make bets on horses that are AI vs making bets on real horses? I see a new gambling project that focuses on horse racing only and I am surprised that those horses are not real live horses, I went deep doing research and it kinda looks like players will be the ones fine-tuning their horses 🐎 for better performance and go ahead to head with other players.
Before AI came to an existence, horse race has been on ground so there is real element of horse race betting even as the AI is taking over the net. In casino or sport game, there are real ones and animated ones so as player, you can select the one you prefer.

Do you think that gambling have a place with the metaverse in the future? I had a dream about being able to gamble online with people that aren't living close to me, we meet in the metaverse and it looks real, I know that sometimes when you think positively about something it is possible to dream about it.

Not in the future but it is happening concerning your dream to come. Before you realize your dream to come people have used metaverse. There is a friend of mine who use to play games online with friends in different cities and Countries. There are sometimes that when they are playing they don't even know themselves.
2651  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: The Latest Ponzi Scheme in Town, pls Avoid it. on: June 03, 2023, 03:17:13 PM
I will blame the hardship and economic state of our country, that's one of reasons why everyone is looking for a quick and a shorter way of making money and at the process become a victims of fraud. The truth is that it will be very difficult for ponzi scheme to be limited completely in our country
Ponzi schemes can be limited if the people stop to patronizing them. There are some people that I meant on this particular Ponzi schemes which o even advised not to partake in the scheme, you know what they told me? They would invest because they scheme just came out and in this first time they would cash out so I let them be. And it was not up to weeks when the scheme crashed. And their eyes were made clear. Some cried. "Experience was the best teacher" for them at that time.

The hardship has nothing to do with the fraudulent activities in the country. It is not only them that facing the hardship. We all are facing it.
2652  Bitcoin / Electrum / Outdated Electrum Wallet: My Experience. on: June 03, 2023, 03:06:48 PM
I have not experienced what I experienced today in Electrum Wallet. When I woke up in this morning June 3rd, 2023, I decided to check my wallet, when I login I saw 0.05+BTC instead of  0.066+BTC and transactions were going on which I saw it with my naked eyes. Immediately fear grabbed me, so I called a friend immediately to come over. And before my friend came, I clicked on the transactions which was written "Local" meaning the transaction is still within the locality and it has not been broadcasted so I should broadcast it. When I saw the two options to handle the issue, which was bump fee and Remove.

I immediately I clicked remove in all the transactions and the wallet balance increase to 0.060+. My mind was not yet okay. So has my friend came we were all wondering who was trying to hack the wallet.
We think all ways, and my friend suggested to update the wallet and see what would happen. So I went to google play store and typed Electrum and it pop up with, "cancel and update" and I clicked update and as the update finished, I checked back the wallet and the total amount of bitcoin came back to 0.066+BTC. Then my mind calm down.

So I am also advising users of Electrum Wallet to update their wallets time to time to avoid cyber attack.
2653  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Question for Miners on: June 03, 2023, 02:45:14 PM
Yes it is. Miners can reject transactions if they wish. From look of things, they accept high fee transactions more than lower fee transactions and when miners reject transaction that transaction would automatically come back the sender's wallet. I don't think there is any consequences of rejected transaction because the rejected transaction would come back your wallet.  But the only consequence which I could remember is the delay of confirmation. If a miner rejects a transaction to the next block, it will take some time before another miner will see and add it to his block so there will be delay on movement.
2654  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Don't Force Your Children to Learn Bitcoin on: June 03, 2023, 02:25:51 PM
Teaching children on bitcoin is like the latest threads in the forum. It is good to tell our children about bitcoin in their tender ages but destiny is not something you force someone to achieve. Just like the general saying that "You can take a horse to the river but you cannot force it to drink the water". That's, it is good to tell your children about bitcoin but you cannot force him or her to learn bitcoin if it is not in the mind of the child and if that is not the child's calling in life.

Just like another instant again, it is a Ghanaian Play called "Sons and Daughters by Joe De Graft". The father wanted his daughter to study law while the some for medicine but the boy wanted to study Fine and Applied Arts while the girl wanted to study Theatre Arts but the father refused. There was a day the boy's friend drew Ghanaian President and the picture was bought with a very big amounts of money which was about millions and it was broadcasted on National TV and Radio Stations and the father heard about the news and he called his children and advised them to study what they like.

I think that play is a very big lesson to everyone in the contemporary world. So if your children are not interested to learn bitcoin please don't force them. Everyone has their own destiny.

2656  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Naira exchange unification on: June 02, 2023, 05:17:27 PM
Smile!!! This are threads under local Economics Board. The president just enter so he is trying to work well for Nigerians but the system will humble him very soon. There was a borrow course from social studies and there is a statement there that "the real ruler of a country is unknown". Fuel subsidy has been removed, na the di masses go suffer, then the masses go disembark to the president to reverse the price. Time is coming for that. Yesterday or today I also say di news that CBN has devalued Nigerian Naira from #465 to #630 per dollar, and in Nigeria these are the two major factors that control goods and services in the country so any thing that affect thses two elements affect all parts of the citizens. The naira devaluation news has not been verified because it is only on blogs and social media the news is escalating and has not shown in national TV news in Economy news . So that might be rumor but even though it is a rumour, the parallel market is still using their normal price of $700+
The problem in Nigeria is also cause by these parallel marketers. The naira unification will help the economy because when the economy is unified commodities will be sold equal rate with dollar because 1 dollar to 1 Naira so things might workout the way it has been planned.

I know at least one other mixer which uses this idea so far. It is not exactly an investment program but a win-win scenario, helping the mixer and also its users.
We all know what klarki is saying is very good idea because he is bring business idea to increase the wallet of uniJoin and also telling them to diversify and their expand their business to other areas of the business but probably UniJoin might under what klarki is saying, and that was why they asked him to show them other works so they can understand what is talking in full. Not that they are debunking him, I believe they will accept the idea the image is forecast for them to see. klarki we are one.
2658  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: A long term investor here, thinking about adding RoLLBit Token on: June 02, 2023, 04:47:29 PM
The point in investments is where to get the right profits and casino tokens are not a good investment choice since they are created for the purpose of incentive anything other than that, will lead to grave devaluation that will lead investors to lose since casino tokens can't be called an asset, but a utility that is why some of them have a stable fixed price and are only used on the casino.

Investing in a casino token is not too bad because the casino too need investors and also needs people to use their token so they can be more popular in the ecosystem. They can also make profit from there too. If we talk about risk then nobody can invest in any coin or token because risk is part of human action. As some commentators said it is risk to invest in casino token, I don't believe that because risk is everywhere. And also if a casino token is listed in any exchange then the investor can also make use of it at anytime.
2659  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Are Your Kids Aware Of Bitcoin? Teach Them. on: June 02, 2023, 04:01:16 PM
The dream of every successful businessman or woman is to have a good successor. you can not be in the light in which bitcoin has brought you to and allow your children to suffer because you failed to teach them the secret behind your wealth. Let your kids know that bitcoin is the surest way to financial freedom, teach them now that bitcoin is of more value than fiat currency, educate them about the importance of bitcoin to mankind, let them know that bitcoin has changed the economy of countries who saw the light in it and adopted it as a means of doing transactions.

Now that your kids are young and vibrant, be their tutor, ensure they are bitcoin oriented, save them from financial dependency, encourage them to rely on bitcoin instead of saving fiat currency that Depreciates now and then.

Our kids represent the leaders of tomorrow, let's teach them about bitcoin now that we can.


Op I will not dispute the fact that you are saying the truth, but I must  tell you this, you don't have to teach them if they are below 5 years because at that time they still trying to recognize things in the world so you have to allow them grow from 5 -6 and above and teach them from there, you can even play some bitcoin videos to them so they can learn from that angle very fast so when they grow up to 17 to 20 years, they have master many things so at that stage practical works will start for them to do more.

Also some pizzas have multiple photos, I remember only 1 photo in the rules.
Inserting more pictures in the gallery is good because some people put the expository process of the pizza that is from the beginning of the baking to the finish product which is a good process. But if the rule says, it is one (1) pizza well that might be good has well but many people will cheat by going to the restaurant and buy a pizza and display only one image without the process of baking and for me that is not nice.
