It would look like a spam but he posted it on good appropriate section, include sources. (if not copy paste paragraph) then all good. How is that become your judgement right away.
One of those threads was made in the altcoins board which is a wrong board to simply post links to articles with a snippet. The press board were the other threads were made is more appropriate, but should only contain 'notable press hits', which some of them do not qualify as (although this is subjective). Whatever is my subjective view, simply dedicating an account for posting links to articles, which is sometimes paid for us unethical and just spams the forum.

Offences would include what you're doing, spamming the forum with threads and links to a website. So far you have created 5 posts on the forum, all of them threads, and all besides this one containing links to a news article. That's a minor offence, but if it's done very frequently it would count as spamming and could get your posts deleted or at most; your account banned.

5. A trusted user of the forum contact me via telegram or any other social media to make a deal. Should I trust the user?
Answer: Obviously not. Ask him to send you a PM through the forum and verify with him if you are talking with the real person. Ask him in detail through forum PM. Use the escrow service of the forum for any deal or trade.
In addition to requiring a PM, you should also request a signed message from an old address the user has posted on the forum, particularly if the message they sent you off the forum requires you to bring out cash, either through making a purchase, investment, donation etc. There have been cases of users getting hacked and not knowing so the hacker could send PM's discreetly to other users and rip them off. Be more skeptical of it's actually a trusted member that sends the message, but overall be skeptical of everything.

Bitcoin continues to move above every form of resistance from the Central currency which is an inflationary tool in the hands of the government and the central banks.
Bitcoin was never subject to resistance from the central currency as they are both uncorrelated and respond to different factors. As you said, fiat is a tool for the government and banks, Bitcoin is an asset which is free for all to use and controlled by none. This decentralization makes Bitcoin immune to poor fiscal policies which fiat currencies are exposed to and makes it less susceptible to inflation. Corrupt and underdeveloped countries usually suffer from inflation a lot and their currencies are highly unstable, for those people bitcoin is an ideal hedge against inflation.

Tried to contact Admin many time but no reply from 4years How did you try contacting the admin? If through PM, it's not the most effective way to get their attention to your issue.
Do you still have access to the email address you used to register? Can you sign a message from an old address posted on your account? The support for lost or hacked accounts is moving again and you can now quickly recover your lost accounts. If your account was hacked Email recoveries...@bitcointalk.org, ideally from the account's email address. Include your username and a brief description of the details of how/when the account was hacked. A signature will likely be required (see below).

It's not about registering 2 accounts or not, the issue is when been caught will attract negative trust which will not be good for his or her reputation of the account. The best advice is to stay with one account to avoid being call-out as a cheat of multiple accounts
You will not get negative feedback for registering 2 or more accounts You will only be tagged if you break the rules of a campaign you signed up for, by registering multiple accounts on it or if your previous account was banned. There's no best solution really, it all depends on the user and the need for an alternate account, some use alts when they are browsing on untrusted networks or on mobile, some use it to express thoughts they do not want associated with their known account, some sign up for multiple campaigns or bounties. Whatever your reason, do not spam or break the rules.

2) If not why not? I figure it would cut down on a bunch of BS issues of people asking / complaining about their ban.
It would be quite a lot of work for the moderators to individually collate ban messages with the reason for it and I feel it would not have an impact as users would still create appeal threads and claim to not know the reason or when it was done. The common reason is plagiarism or spamming which is included in the message, yet there are still tons of complaints. The admin also posted this sometimes back; Having moderators put a reason for every autoban is a waste of mods' time.

I do not live in China, so the ban doesn't bother me at all. It would have an impact on the price, but that would only be temporary, eventually the market would adjust to it. The Chinese government simply locked themselves out of the network.
My country banned banks from mediating transactions involving Bitcoin some months ago and this actually increased the popularity of bitcoin, so, the decision of the Chinese government could actually have a positive effect in the long run.

Wrapped Bitcoin or ethereum are altcoins which tries to mimick the value of the two currencies, I would personally not use them and would much rather buy the actual Bitcoin over a cheap replica which offers liquidity on a different chain. The algorithm of Bitcoin is actually one of the major distinguishing factors, if we take that away, the currency has very little value.
Bitcoin futures are the closest options I can think of which exposes one to Bitcoin without them needing to buy an actual coin, and it is mostly useful for those investors who cannot own them directly or the process is time consuming, but they are not tokens or coins

As soon as you give away your seed or private key to a loved one you could be compromised. This is one of the issues with Bitcoin and there is no way of securely handing down your money to your family if anything was to happen without compromising the security of your Bitcoin by giving them your private key while you are still alive and using it.
One way to do this without compromising on privacy or security would be to create a new address and send a time locked transaction to it, with a certain nLocktime, then give the person the private keys to the new address. The address is currently empty, and in an event where something happens to you, they would get the funds at the specified time, except someone gets hold of the spending address and makes the spending txs invalid. Your private keys to your active address remains secure with you.

The reason (besides the delay in the new forum software) why there is no mobile version in my opinion, would be cause the forum (or the administration) is sort of resistant to change, you can see this in how most of the social platforms linked on the profile are not that active anymore, but newer ones, like Reddit or Instagram have not been added.
For me, I do not mind the desktop view at all and have gotten used to it on a mobile device, I'm only off the forum, when I'm busy with school, work or family, or when I just want to take a break from everything and recharge.

It would help to drop a link and a summary of the bill and why it should have any effect on bitcoin at all. Here's an article and another I could find on it, and if I understand it correctly, it suggests there would be stricter regulation of cryptocurrency through taxations and the use of ambiguous words in the bill makes it unclear who exactly would be affected. If it would have an effect, it would likely only be short term and with time the position of the Senate and the IRS would become clearer, it also has the potential to be bullish as it shows growing acceptance of digital assets by the government.

Dear Upgrade00, Are there any offers in the forum to earn pocket money. If yes, Could you please suggest me some?
Don't know what your definition of pocket money is, but there is a micro earnings board which was created specifically for small rewards, not sure if most of the offers there are still worthwhile. How to become a DT member? Anyone who can work hard and understanding the policies of the Bitcointalk forum, eligible to request that position?
You seem to be reading replies without actually getting the message behind them. However, you do not request to be on DT, you get there with consistent credible judgement in giving feedbacks and creating flags, which would make other members add you to their trust list.

Firstly, the forum allows alt accounts, so the rules you should be looking out for are those of the campaign or bounty you wish to join, and most of them do not allow alt accounts, you can however join different campaigns or bounty with different accounts without any issue with the rules as long as you only register one per campaign.
However, do not register more accounts than you can handle, the maximum I've noticed is two accounts for a user in 2 different campaigns, anything beyond that and you'll most likely be spamming to meet up with your post requirements causing more harm to the community and could get your accounts banned.
Bounty earnings is just a small part of the forum, as a new user do not limit your participation to that, rather read wide and learn more about the forum, you will find the forum has a lot more to offer.

China's market regulators and the Ministry of Public Security said cryptocurrency is "disrupting the economic and financial order, breeding illegal and criminal activities such as gambling, illegal fund-raising, fraud, pyramid schemes, and money laundering, and seriously endangering the safety of people's property."
Sounds more like: Cryptocurrencies are giving the citizens some level of freedom and control over their finances as they should normally be able to do, but they can not because we want total control to allow us manipulate our economy. Bitcoin challenges the control the state has over the citizens, checking the trail of governments which are hostile to cryptocurrencies, you will discover they are anti freedom and undemocratic. How will this impact Bitcoin and other cryptoprojects?? What do you think guys?
If I can recall correctly, China experiences one of the largest emigration of wealthy people and businesses as most can not cope with the system of governance, same would likely happen here, i.e bitcoins moving out as we saw with mining gear, it would limit grassroot adoption, but would also redirect the Bitcoin enthusiasm to other parts.

despite explicitly mentioning that one "should not expect any payment for non-security issues", perhaps there may be some exceptional wiggle room.
There could be some wiggle room, but the page also says something about not revealing the bug anywhere else besides to the email address provided You must report the bug to the bugs email address listed on the contact page. You must not publish it elsewhere or share it with anyone else.
Revealing it or hinting at what the bug could be can also pass as publishing it elsewhere.

To me I will employ the government to consider adopting Cryptocurrency first along side with the launch of it digital currency (E-Naira) and the citizens will decide the best and convinient choice, the teaming youths where in perplex towards the new launch but it would have been so good if Cryptocurrency adoption goes along with it.
If you are a Nigerian, you would also know that the Nigerian government does not believe in democracy or rule of law; the ban on cryptocurrency transactions and the use of Twitter is an example of this. Digital currencies are decentralized and puts the power in the hands of the holder, fiat on the other hand can be more easily controlled and manipulated, an E-naira would be much more manipulated as transactions would all be regulated and controlled. With fiat, you can hold cash and transact if your bank is blocked, but an electronic form would not have physical notes and is 100% controlled.

AFAIK, there have been no restrictions on transactions involving Bitcoin in UAE so while it was not legally approved as a tender, it was not illegal to own, buy or sell it. This report talks about regulations of the previously free cryptocurrency market and from the linked article, focus seems to be on altcoins, ICOs and NFTs rather than Bitcoin. I doubt it would have much impact on bitcoin or affect its usage within that region.

I don't know if the admin reacts following a particular pattern, like a thread needing to be pinned before it can be turned into a board. The Nigerian local board is very active and always on the top of the first page of the other languages board (exempting pinned threads) and is more active than many pinned local boards.
Pinning the thread is however a less demanding request and I hope it gets accepted. As you said it would give more publicity and those Nigerians who may get be unaware of the existence of a Nigerian community could learn of it and join in, giving more reasons to get an actual board.
