341  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: OG's Secrets to Profitable Meme Coins Investment on: March 31, 2024, 10:37:57 PM
I think investing in meme coins is a double-edged sword. There are only a few gems that would allow you to profit and you need to be one of the first in line to get that as well. Like when it's just so little in value like many zeros in front and then reaching consecutive ATH because it has become viral. It's really hard to predict but it's worth it as long as you are investing what you can afford to lose.
The thing is that memecoin investment is like gambling,  never expect anything and expect everything, because as long as memecoins investments is concerned,  one can always lose everything so it is important to only put down an amount that you can afford to lose and never take it investment with any form of seriousness on long term mindsets.

Even the newly launched projects with low price doesn't still have the guarantee of making any profits, so for sure there can't be any secret to profits making in such h investment that lack certainty or directions like bitcoin or other assets with whitepaper or blue print to follow.
342  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: What to do when you dey depressed on: March 31, 2024, 09:50:23 PM
Well from the beginning I thought you where outlining the possible anti depression but along the line it seems you were giving advice and analysis on the various ways you think one can over come depression.

But first of all we need to identify what is the cause of the depression and I there is any ways to destroy it from the root e.g a job can push someone into addictions or even lifestyle,  so if this things ant taken care of, even though you apply all the mentioned means of getting out of depression, the person will still be depressed a d even worst if he continues in the job or lifestyle that birthed the depression in the first place.

I greet everyone I know many of us wey dey here suppose don get better understanding about crypto-currency and even how to trade on binance but I still believe that this forum is growing and there are still many newbies coming in.
 so to go straight to the point my friend who is a bit new to crypto-currency was telling me about here experience sell her Bitcoin a popular exchange she has already understood some of the basic on how to sell but this Time while selling the buyer asked for here number which she gave and then chatted her demanding that they trade outside the exchange, and even offered a higher deal than the exchange. this is a big red flag because you a vulnerable to getting scammed if you are trading with someone you don't know off the exchange no matter how juicy the offer is.
Since you mentioned that the seller was a newbie so I won't ask her some technical questions,  but basically as you rightfully said this method of scamming I quite cheap but those without knowledge can still fall victims for this and for sure it will result into a big lesson for the victim if she fall eventually.

But to any knowledgeable trader that alone is a big red flagand shouldn't be taken off the exchange for whatever reason and if there is anything to ask or chat about the exchange chat box is there to make every communication.
344  Economy / Gambling / Re: My experience on live bet on: March 31, 2024, 09:34:45 PM
It was my first attempt at playing a live game. I wagered #1000 on a winning range of #7,000 on three live games out of a total of seven odd. I started to question why this sport bet robot was acting that way after two of the three games had already been played, even if I eventually won the game. At that point, my cash out was #1,641.

Did you expect to see a cash out of N5000 or more? It doesn't matter whether two of your games had already played, there's still one pending game. At the time you took the screenshot the game was at 85 minute, so there's 5 minutes left for the game to come to an end. The chances of either side scoring one goal to give you the win is very slim that's why you had a N1,650 cash out option and the more the game go into the final minutes the more the cash out amount decreases. However, if a goal is later scored in the game, the complete amount will be credited to your account.
The available cashout is in proportion to how much odds have already entered I his favor just as we see that those two games that he already won are all small odds games and the pay out based on his staked amount is what is displaying as cashout, so is left for the ops to either take the cashout or risk to wait till the end of the match to be able to know wether he lose everything or all the total odds calculated.

Bit if I were the ops I will take the cashout and walk away Becassine looking at the ongoing game, it point to a directions that may possibly become a lose for the ops which is too risky for the ops as a newbies.

Yeah! Casinos without KYCs for government to have part in the running  are always main target for sanction as they would tag all their activities  to be an illegal  one NMW and there's  no way they can just themselves
Governments are just concerned with the both the gamblers  and the casinos itself .
The majority of the casinos without licences only run for a few months or years but doesn't have the capacity to run the operation for a long time since at anytime the government get through to them it will definitely become the end of their operations.

So for contemporary casinos that have long term in views it will be very necessary to get the license needed to operate as legal company and at that will implement KYC to comply with government demands.
346  Other / Off-topic / Re: Noticing sign of gambling addiction before it gets worst on: March 31, 2024, 08:24:07 PM
So I'm thinking before you become involved in frequent gambling behaviour what is the sign that you notice that you are doing when you gamble?
I do not gamble frequently and I am not having any sign of addiction because I just gamble during weekends and sometimes I do not gamble throughout the week. What I can easily use to know if I am gambling too much is if I go beyond my gambling budget but I do not go beyond my gambling budget.
Sometimes, going beyond your budget is another way to test and over stretch your luck and based on that you may get lucky to win big when you over stretch your budgets and should not be seen as addiction since most times you can control yourself and still go above your weekly budget at times and still be fine, being able to control your spending even when you are on an increase budget on temporary bases shouldn't classify as gambling addiction.

Gambling addictions is way ahead and different in nature because of it forces on the victims, because some of the gambling addicts are poor and sometimes can't afford they next bet, but yet will case the urge until the act in wird manner sometimes.
347  Other / Off-topic / Re: How can we help beginners not to get addicted on: March 31, 2024, 07:58:18 PM
I think majority of people who are addicted to gambling is because they do not understand gambling as beginners, the rules and the side effects of playing gambling excessively.
Most of them know about gambling addiction, the problem is that they are gambling just because of money, so they don’t care if they get addicted or not, no matter what people tell them, they will never listen, all what they want is money, so most of them do get to the level that they can no longer control themselves, when some people get addicted to gambling, they are always the cause of their addiction, whenever we are gambling, we shouldn’t have the mentality that we are going to make money from gambling, just enjoy the fun part of gambling.
There have been various instances where forks win big amount and also gamble with the main aim to make profits, and yet never get addicted why because they have a set limit for everything and they never allow they quest for the money to get over them to the point of getting them addicted and for that we may have a reason to separate gambling addiction from profits ambitions target.

But for the generally affected number of gambling addicts which are traced to be caused by addiction this make it to look and be seen as gambling with the mindset of making money being the cause of addiction based on that generalisation of that term based on the higher percentage.
348  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Nigeria, The Greatest Country in Africa on: March 30, 2024, 11:49:39 PM
There is no doubt in the statement above that Nigeria is the largest economy in Africa,  but then also I am beginning to be tired to read ops mentioning oil as the only resources in his write despite the fact that in current reality of things, crude oil is no longer a viable mineral resources.

Because developing and developed countries around the world have move away from oil as a means of revenue generation for their countries economic sustainability so for continues growth and to remain the giant of Africa,  Nigeria need to move away from oil as the major source of revenue and start looking inward to other resources that can enable Nigeria to become self sustaining and producing state instead of the correct consumers economy we presently run in Nigeria.
349  Economy / Gambling / Re: does betonline.com send an sms when you sign up? on: March 30, 2024, 11:19:13 PM
You have to read the TOS of the casino to know if the allow the use of vpn and at what limit they do that and also if you are not getting sms verifications I advice you use email instead because sometimes experience that delay in getting sms verification codes also when I want to use some new casinos site by registering on them via sms code verifications.

And each time, when it didn't work I switched to email verifications and at that point I gain access code that helped me get through with my registration on that said platforms.
350  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The person who can’t control emotions in gambling will never earn money from it on: March 30, 2024, 11:08:48 PM

In reality, this your statement is wrong, to be honest, emotions; be it positive or negative, have no place in determining if and when a gambler wins or loses a game, what does that is luck, anybody can start a gambling session with a negative emotions and end that gaming session with a positive emotion, why, because he or she won, and another could start a gambling session feeling excited emotionally, but end that gaming session feeling down emotionally because he or she lost, possibly money he or she was not expecting or ready to loss.


Yeah mate you are very correct with that luck and results in the main objects that usher in emotions and not the determinant factors that aid the winning or the losing,  I think the emotions comes into play when the results of the game is already avaliable that is when you see either a gambler being happy or sad depending on the outcome of they bets and at such the only way that we can overcome emotions from playing out is in when we can properly manage our ambition about gambling and only taking gambling to be just for fun and should not stake any amount above the amount we can afford to lose.

Take for instance,  a gambler that bet with a $0.3 cent if he lose the bet, the impact won't be felt like a gambler that staked around $100 to $200 on same bet, and that is where the emotions sets in.
351  Economy / Lending / Re: Loan Request on: March 30, 2024, 10:31:54 PM


Loan terms
1.  Interest (total) = 0.15 BTC
2.  Collateral = 78K USDT





Julia
I guess you edited the ops to include the collateral that you mentioned above which prompted me to make this comment again aside my earlier comment, and just as others have said, why looking for a loan when you already have more than the loan amount in stable coin, with all due respect this story and claims is not clear, because no one in his rightful mind will want to incure the pain of paying her interest on a loan that he already have all the facilities to avoid and still be fine with and that is more reason why it will be hard for anyone to take the offer seeing that you are not making a wise financial decision by taking loan in that amount with such collateral.

Unless if you are willing to either use an escrow that will hold the collateral until you make full payment plus interest, and even at that, is going to be hard to see such lender here in the forum considering the amount and conditions.
352  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: We should control our tongue at all time. on: March 30, 2024, 10:23:12 PM
The girls jam talk and should will learn in the hard just like very dark man were no use freedom of speech well were police done pick him for over a week now, this is how it supposed to be and every citizens should at least mind they business and only say what they have fact about and not just based on assumptions or stereotyping.

Most time when you are at a police check point or any check point for that matter, you need to act with ultimate respect to the officers on duty and mind what we talks a matter of fact we should keep silent and never ulter any statement until we have a legal adviser that can interpret and guide our statements, because those officers are5 Mobile law that is to say anything you say or do will always be used against in the court of law and this girl in the story is going to serve punishment for that unlawful speech.
353  Economy / Gambling / Re: Why they need a license if bitcon is not money? on: March 30, 2024, 10:11:40 PM

I hope they keep to it, most online casinos also wanted to be like freebitco but along the line they join other popular online casinos that ask for KYC, I have been using freebitco since many years ago and they have never asked me for KYC before, I am impressed, but what if freebitco become as big as Stake some day? Won't that bring attention?

Online casinos can survive and still become successful under the radar without being  noticed, but when the attention gets bigger they might come looking for them, and they can be forced to go same route like big online casinos have done too.
The thing is that, why most of them don't survive when they have kyc in place is because the authorities always look at they activities as illegal and against the law since they are not paying any tax if their are not regulated in the first place and most who don't want to expose themselves are always looked for and sectioned that is the reason most of the new casinos always make sure that they uptain license before they begin they operations.

We have seen many cases of those no kyc casinos becoming victims of government sanctioned which at most time leads to their closer in the long run, this have taught most some lessons.
354  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: My motive for joining the forum on: March 30, 2024, 09:11:11 PM
First you shouldn't have the mindset that those your first friends hard or they way of life if truly they were extra vargant in they spending due to their income from cryptocurrency and to a great extent they may not have the right mentality and also approach because a true cryptocurrency holder or trader will always be careful and decipline and will not have any elements of excessive spending at any time and tor sure they may be involved in so.e illegal activities and being covering it with cryptocurrency.

Back to you, it good that you did not give and you were able to locate the forum and becoming a member,  which will open you up to so much informations and Knowledge, that will serve as a guide to you without you needing any mentor or guidance from any person,  most of us discovered this forum by ourselves and since then we paid the price to grow our accounts based on the knowledge we gain from this forum and other cryptocurrency forums that we belong to and also through person search on the Internet.
355  Other / Off-topic / Re: Can family members help a gambling addict? on: March 30, 2024, 08:59:15 PM
Many people are going through gambling addiction but they manage to keep it a secret from their families and loved ones. The only people that know about their gambling activities are their close friends. In the event that you are one of those close friend to a gambling addict, do you think it is right to tell their loved ones with the intention that they will be able to talk to him and help him overcome his addiction? Can the advice of loved ones even help? What is the most effective way of going about gambling addiction.
First can  gambling addiction be hidden from family and close one's around us, because sometimes the activities of an addicts can not be hidden so it will be easy for the family to know about his gambling activities even before the friends unless if the family are not paying close attention to him or her.

And if the family does not come close to know and detect the addiction  spirit in their own siblings or spouse I don't think they will be able to help him to get out of it at any point in time so it better to keep it away from them and Contin with you personal efforts to help the friend.

357  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Opay SCAM...Beware!!! on: March 29, 2024, 10:19:21 PM
I was even afraid of what happened to Op network fow the few two days because I was in the POS office and was about to transfer money to the POS sake girl and I the message I got was like I have been hacked or what? And the way scammers are looking for all the ways to scam people is getting out of hand. And the scam is not only in Opay but also in another Banks and I what you have to do is to be careful and be smart about your assets so that even though you get the Scammers message you will know what time did. Experience is the best me I don enter well well so I know all their tricks.
The best teacher is always experienced and with the level of experience we have grained over the year with scammers, I think it will be very hard for scammers to be able to get through to some of us, online platforms are the most targeted since Internet fraud is believed to give some scammers sense of privacy and anonymousity which I reality is not so, and also we need to check ourselves very well and keep being informed.

Recently I hard to deactivate almost all the banks notifications and other notifications from my phone so at leat I limit my access and notice to only the things that I as a customer desire to access and make use of from the platform instead of receiver unsolicited promotions which most or some of them are from scammers.

Not only okay that is a target or mostly used, other online banks also have their own  liphole or services that can be manipulated and preached to gullible customers and they accept the offer.
358  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Give respect to your teachers and parents on: March 29, 2024, 09:25:57 PM
In most cases, we often concentrate on the children because they are growing up and wouldn't want them to got mixed up with the society influence with bad manners, some of our adults and grown up men were also not left out in these altogether, we must value our parents and teachers if really we wanted same thing to be reciprocated back on us, we are whom we are today through the influence of our parents and the love from our teachers who had vested alot on us.
I believe everyone in the forum should be close to or above 18 so the advice concerns every and all ages here and outside the forum, because respect for those that thought us morality and civil ways of life shouldn't be looked down on for no reason and for we have to put everything in place to make sure that our respect and honour for our parents who are our first life teacher is undoubtedly and unbeatable.

And any one that have regards for the parents will always have the moral ability and quality's to honor and respectanyone that ever come across them and much more those that he fines and sees ahead of him or her, so the issues of respect for teachers and parent is top priority.
359  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to find a best bounty campaign to join ? on: March 29, 2024, 08:38:24 PM
Bounty is 100% no guarantee and shouldn't be taken as an extra or a source of income,  intact nothing like income.e from Bounty and if anyone get any reward from bouty you should know that that rewards will be little to nothing significant or they don't get the reward at all,  which to some extent goes along to say how worthless Bounty have become lately with the presence of many scam project the section is a mess as it is.

Even the bounties that are run by reputable member can't guarantee any good outcome, and for that I personally will never waste my time on any bounty.
360  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin way forward - Towards $100k or $50k on: March 29, 2024, 08:29:36 PM
In last two week we have seen a fluctuation in the price of Bitcoin as at one point it looked like it will drop to $50k but quickly it rebounded back and crossed $71k once again and now it just under $70k. What do you think would be the next zone, will Bitcoin rally towards the long awaited $100k mark or dip towards $50k? I know no one can speculate or predict it accurately but just share your thoughts with any valid reasons behind it.
At the moment,  I think bitcoin will do  more of a stable movement that is a frequent correction and with little percentage price movement that will be between a 10% gain or drop at each point, that is that bitcoin is going to rely around the 70k-71k+at most up until the next halving and then after we are going to see a major market break out which will mark the anticipated bull run market which bring in new all time high.
