3221  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Quit expecting a ETH killer on: March 17, 2022, 07:54:36 PM
There are some competitors like Binance coin, Tron, Algorand, Solana and many others, people can say whatever they like but normally these altcoins have a blockchain that is competing with ethereum blockchain which is normal because life is full of competition. Ethereum is the first of them, people prefer what has been existing before and find it difficult to make the ones that come later to be the dominant they are using. But ethereum needs to getting improving because there could be an altcoins that may one day come to compete and take the second position, it may look like it is not possible but very possible.
3222  Economy / Economics / Re: Is there a place in the world you could live like a king via sig campaigns? on: March 17, 2022, 07:28:53 AM
Let's say a few of the Chipmixer crowd wanted to escape whatever tyranny they were living under in their country or countries (I picked that campaign because I think it's the highest-paying one, but correct me if I'm wrong).  We'll assume for the sake of argument that the campaign is going to continue indefinitely and that each member (let's say five in total) make the maximum number of posts per week, earning $300 worth of bitcoin in the process.
People in Chipmixer campaign living in some country will live a very good life. There are some things that can be expesive in such countries, things that are important like cars and some other things like that which they import, but when it comes to food, renting house and daily living, it will be much cheap.

You can check this site: https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/compare_countries.jsp

Let us compare US and Nigeria: https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/compare_countries_result.jsp?country1=Nigeria&country2=United+States

In the state I am living, my friend rented an apartment worth only $517 per year, a very good apartment. People in my state are still complaining of rise in food stuff but it is nothing to those in Chipmixer.

To tell the truth, some people from such countries are able to make good life with even the $300 they are collecting but they can also have other ways of making money, but they can have good living with $300.

Another thing is that the minimum wage of some countries is less than $1.8 dollars per day, that is around $52 in a month and the government workers are still living in the country while some private are paying lower. You can see how someone collecting $300 is benefit more than that.
3223  Economy / Economics / Re: The economy is important for a family! on: March 17, 2022, 06:51:42 AM
As we know, the economy is very important for families, of course, to support daily life and plan for the future. In addition to working we also need a savings or investment and this is the responsibility of parents. But if something happens that we don't want, such as death. By leaving a little treasure to our children, do we need to provide crypto investment education to our children? is it necessary?
We are in the world people are getting educated about cryptocurrencies, why not then educate your children about it, especially the shitcoins and scam that can let them lost coins, not even only that but also about the investment education you said, you can educate your children about how trading is and how it has turned some people that are rich before to poor person an how investment can be the best option, to buy the dip and sell high, that patience is very important before someone can be successful.

The metaverse will perform just like the physical casinos the wave and movement of physical activities into the virtual space in I'm the rise and demand have shifted from using face to face service to virtual services.
I do not think that there will be a shift from the physical service to the virtual ones in term of casino and gambling generally, gambling can easily be accessed online, I have not seen any significant reason people should go Metaverse to gamble, though some people can see it as fun, but I do not see it as fun when I do not have any business in Metaverse yet. Metaverse on google search is very still low and I do not yet consider it.
3225  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) Discussion Thread on: March 17, 2022, 06:38:36 AM
Jay Jay Okocha and Papilo remains the two most selfish Nigerian internationals of this age. I know you people will not like what I have said. They were great during their playing days on the pitch. But since they left active football, nothing has been heard about them in regards to football. They should have taken to coaching or found their way into football administration whether in Nigeria or anywhere else. But they are no where to be found on that. They want to die with their talents without passing it on to anyone. That is selfishness.
If this is the reason you said both Okocha and Kanu are selfish, I think that is wrong, they are not both selfish, players can decide to continue their career in sport or choose another aspect of profession, we should respect that people have different goals in life. Some people can be very good players but they can lack the knowledge to coach or they are not confident enough for that area as, some people do not like than being players.

Another DeFi exploit

‘Unlucky’: Agave and Hundred Finance DeFi protocols exploited for $11M

Agave and Hundred Financial have paused operation since the hack, investigation about the exploit continues. The hacker stole approximately $11 million in Wrapped ETH, Wrapped BTC, Chainlink, USDC, Gnosis, and Wrapped XDAI.

This is the 5th DeFi exploit I know about this year 2022.
3227  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Ukraine passed law to Legalize Bitcoin what does it mean for Bitcoin? on: March 16, 2022, 08:01:16 PM
Ukraine know the benefit of cryptocurrencies when it was used as payment/donation from many parts of the world to help the Ukraine in this time of Russia dictatorial invasion of Ukraine. Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies has been proved to be money that can be sent from one country to another. War makes people to appreciate the value of cryptocurrencies which can be the only useful and safer money in time of war. I know this legalization will be positive as cryptocurrencies has been benefiting Ukraine in this time of war. The world is just getting ready for more crypto adoption.
3228  Other / Meta / Re: Ukraine and Russians should have a joint board on: March 16, 2022, 10:56:06 AM
Joint board for what? Because over 60% of Ukrainians speak Ukrainians as a native language, only 26% speak Russian as a native language. Mind you, the official language in Ukraine is Ukrainian which means of of them speak Ukrainian.

Why are you suggesting they should have the same board? That is no, not possible.
3229  Economy / Economics / Re: Coming economic problems all world how to profit on: March 16, 2022, 07:32:22 AM
We know markets will crash and huge deflation...and economy will melt down....but is there any good ways make good profit out of this chaos? Other then just betting on short positions ? Any other ways to benefit of this global crashes and bankcrypcies around the world?
Right now we know we can do a lot shorting the market but what else gives nice profit ?
If market will crash, that will be inflation not deflation, deflation is the rise in money vaue which is not possible during market crash.

The best way to make money during the time is that you should continue doing business, you can hold some assets like bitcoin or gold, or buy some profitable stocks. I will advice you to buy bitcoin which the best, you will make profit in long term.

Do not save fiat, it is the worst thing you can do.

Hold bitcoin.
3230  Economy / Economics / Re: OMG crypto is low ! what do i do ? on: March 16, 2022, 07:17:23 AM
Indeed, and while waiting for the bearish season to be over, much better to take advantage the dip and buy additional coins.
Some people would wait for the bear time to be over but all they may later realise is that they have missed the bull market again. This should be what I will post also, we are in bear time already, there is nothing bad to buy and have a long term speculation and holding in mind. With this, we will not panic even if the price falls a little further, the price will increase later and we will make profit. I am not doubting it at all that this is the right time to buy. But I am having just little amount with me, I will rather swing trade than hold which is better to do right now because holding is for people that have significant amount.
3231  Economy / Economics / Re: Sanction is the right option? on: March 16, 2022, 07:07:50 AM
Russia is not a superpower. It is deeply corrupt at every level of society, it doesn't have any significant technological progress in any sphere, mostly it is just living off the remnants of its Soviet legacy. Its economy was built around exports of fossil fuels
EU is no longer willing to deal with Russia again and this is even beyond the fossil fuel imported from Russia. I have read how some products are also exported from Russia to US and Canada, all these countries with good economy are no longer willing to deal with Russia. If Russia against all these nations, sanctions will later have negative effect on Russia, a country that prefer power than citizens, a country that do not like how the Soviet Union failed to continuing existing.

 and the cryptocurrency exchange
@FTX_Official
, we’ve launched the website "Aid For Ukraine" to collect crypto for supporting the army https://donate.thedigital.gov.ua

3234  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Block's plan hardware wallet with fingerprint sensors... on: March 15, 2022, 07:19:52 AM
It is now coming to a time someone can be sleeping and another person can just careful hold his finger to unlock his hardware wallet, or should we call it a time coming when robbers can know more about hardware wallet that uses fingerprint, all needed is the person's finger to unlock the wallet. Or maybe other security features will be included that will make these types of things not to happen, but I doubt that. I can never use such a wallet, I will always prefer the ones that only uses password and pin.
3235  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Another Fake Gate.io exchange (2&3) on: March 15, 2022, 06:40:31 AM
Here one must be careful. IT MIGHT not be a scam as sometimes, to trick google from shutting down ads, exchanges use such third party domains for ads.
Legit website will include in their mails their legit domains, they use their legit domains for ads. What can happen is that some people can use referral link as a domain which will direct people to the right site, but people should be careful of google ads, there have been several cases that the ads are for scammers. I treat google ads like scam and I do not click on ads at all which is the best. As for that link, it is a scam site.
3236  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Binance worth more than sum of European banks? on: March 15, 2022, 06:25:29 AM
That is ridiculous, how can Binance worths more than the whole European banks? Not even comparing it with one or two banks. Binance is the largest crypto exchange but as people are getting to knowing about cryptocurrencies, there are new exchanges that are developing. No KYC is one of the reasons Binance growth was more than those of Huobi Global and some other exchange, not that Binance offer better services, but now Binance mandate KYC. Cryptocurrencies are getting regulated and there are a lot of competition, people should not expect Binance to grow more than usual.
3237  Other / Politics & Society / Re: what could be Vladimir Putin intension for the war? on: March 13, 2022, 03:51:05 PM
Putin does not care to start world war 3
Maybe to try to form back USSR
Maybe he actually want what he is saying, that he do not want NATO expansion to the Eastern Europe. Dictatorial government that against NATO can say that.

Maybe after Ukraine, Poland or Moldova can be Putin's next target. UK, US, EU and UN generally are all cowards, Putin's ambition is more and if given this access, he will use bravery to create more nuclear weapons to threaten NATO not to interfere as he continuing to destroy lives and properties in Ukraine neighbor countries as he is doing in Ukraine now.
3238  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1) on: March 13, 2022, 01:52:05 PM
I can see there performance is very well against Bordeaux as they are already leading with three goals
Yes they are leading with 3 goals and they are the strongest in Ligue 1, but I am still always confused that Messi is not scoring, Kylian Mbappe scored the first goal, Neymar scored the second goal while Leandro Daniel Paredes scored the third goal, I am still surprise that Messi is playing in the front and yet not scoring well. Maybe it is age that is telling or maybe other players are not working well with him believing in the old players there like Mbappe and Meymar.
3239  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling in METAVERSE on: March 13, 2022, 01:42:27 PM
For this to happen it should have the support of the majority of gamblers, we all want innovation but we want reputation and ease of playing more, I believe the social media platforms will first adopt and all the other niches or industries will follow I just don't know how fast the gambling industry will adopt this new technology, we are living in a world where nothing is impossible, if that happens we can come back in this thread to post our experience, soon we will have more of it on the internet.
What should be first considered is that are children and teenagers below 18 years be able to access the Metaverse, or will Metaverse be restricted to some certain people. We should also know that only what are Metaverse belongs to Metaverse, you can only access what you buy in Metaverse in only Metaverse, you can not access it in real life unless you virtually enter the Metaverse again. I do not think Metaverse will be suitable for gambling, gambling is even already virtual in universe as people can access it online.
3240  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: March 13, 2022, 08:29:29 AM
Next week Manchester United vs Atletico Madrid in the Champions League will be very confused to choose which team will qualify for the next round. but the question for all of us will be whether Manchester United can be consistent against Atletico Madrid.
Ronaldo can do the magic again, one thing I know about Atletico is that they do not score much goals, just one or two goals, they also have a good defence but this season is not good for the club, if Manchester United can use this home opportunity, it is very possible it will win Atletico.

Some of today's matches will be interesting, Chelsea versus Newcastle, it is said that Newcastle has not been losing since, very possible today's match will change that. When Leicester was good, Arsenal did not find it difficult to win the club, I am expecting Arsenal to win Leicester today.

You should be a pure gunner's, you don't want Chelsea to win from your comments.
I mean the opposite, that Newcastle has not been losing all this time, that today's match with Chelsea will chance that, not that Newcastle is still struggling to leave the relagation zone and Chelsea is also holding the third position very well, so this match will be good as no much adrenaline rush. Do not forget it is Chelsea's home, Newcastle should prepare but today may not go in their (Newcastle) favour.
