Don't hodl your S merit give it out    : it's always a certainty that one get more attached to your thread or replies when you've merited them in the past and ao, as you receive merit that brings you S merit, also give it to others.

You don't have to say this, one is free to use his s merit at anytime as long as it goes inline with the expected ways of sending it, secondly, you're not expected to send a merit if not on the purpose of you receiving a quality post that have deserved to be merited, this means you can keep holding until you discovered one good quality post to merit.

6. Do your thing, get the criticism and come back better:      don't be afraid of what people will say about your opinion, say it out and when you are criticized, it will only make you a better person And you will have the chance of doing it better next time.

I don't want you to make this forum look as if you're being criticized or other newbies, everyone has equal rights and opportunities, but when you're being corrected, take heed.

Moreover, this is one the the particular thing we are just discussing about, you know this thread belong to reputation and there's a mega thread for celebrating rank up and achievements, yet you choose to go by this way, could this also be a criticism or correction, just remember that lovesmayfsmilis had corrected earlier.

First thing to do when you receive this kind of attempt for an attack is to ignore the sender, why they are doing so is to create an address that is similar to the one  you're using, so that when you receive fund from them and the next time you wanted to send out fund, you will mistakenly copy their own address instead of yours since they lookalike, this is why you must always cross check the address you're sending fund to, make sure it's right, then delete any address that you don't want to appear under your history or make use of the wallet address directly without copying from the history.

So what is that your lucrative business idea? Let others know to diversify their sources of income.

People may not really want to express themselves in such a way that could get them exposed about their dealings, but they can as well make suggestions from a general view even when they are not involved in any yet, there are series of opportunities online, you have to know how to find and search for them, but before that, there must be a clear understanding of what you have found out first, learn it and ask others about it before going for them, there are many businesses online with organizations that are well paying in digital currencies whereby they can offer you a job, examples is fiver, there are many others you can actually earn from, trading forex and cryptocurrencies are also another try.
404  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you pay attention on other people bet and it amount, and does it affect you? on: January 17, 2024, 03:16:52 PM
Whenever I find myself in a casino, I care less about the bets other gamblers are playing or the amount they're using to wager, I normally walk in, play my game and leave. From what I'm seen, people who pay attention to other people's bet in my locality are those that want to reprint the gambler's bet because they feel he has higher winning rate. Also, there's another category of persons who do this because they want to beg the gambler for staking power (as they call it) if he wins big.

I also focused on what brought me there, am less concerned about what is happening even in the casino house, but I may sometimes find myself in a situation that I need enquiry which I may take time engaging with some in a conversation about gambling or the bet am about to make, but this is not a common thing and doesn't have to influence my betting strategy or decision, I may only do that to have an idea on a particular information needed, I see that some gamblers also likes engaging on discussions and arguments in the casino house which is something I don't think works with my kind of personality, I usually gamble on my own and alone without other's influence.

In addition to this, you can always make use of the forum search on anything you may want to ask or enquire about, virtually everything had already been discussed before now in one way or the other here, also making use of the google could also help, you're likely to see many other references that are linked to that same word or term as the case maybe, you can always make use of the above recommended links on that.
406  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: The hidden truth about Bitcoin on: January 17, 2024, 01:11:52 PM
Just as there is a difference in profit making between a regular farmer and farmer who wait to farm only in raining or wet season so is Bitcoin to them that invest regularly without waiting for a fall in price.many time I hear people said they are waiting for a drop in price before they invest, the common example of Bitcoin fall in price is like a car deriver who uses speed of 120 for forward movement using same speed in backwards movement is impossible, waiting for a fall on your speculation is impossible.No Fisher man wait for the wave of the river or sea before casting it's net, because if they do there will be no fish to catch. As the river flow same they follow. There is no right time than now let no man deceive you start from any level you found yourself, it's a hidden truth about Bitcoin.

Don't be misguided mate, there are times you need to make research about what you want and go for it, adoption of bitcoin comes in many ways base on the needs we want to see come through, if you're investing on bitcoin for a long time or short time basis, if you're interested in making trades or only investing to hold, so the kind of holder you're matters alot, if you're not that interested in any then you can choose or have your own reasons for choosing bitcoin, the idea is that many of us don't even know what we want, what we are doing and how to go about it, we just dabble into it just as every other common man and expect things to work the way we want.

Whenever I try to view a post where a user has attached a picture in the post it comes up with this  msg: "btcointalk.org image proxy Invalid Image" At first I thought this was something wrong with the image posted, but it has happened too many times and I think its something wrong at my end. Anyone know what is wrong and how i can fix it?

If what you're viewing are old images posted then you're likely to see the results like that especially when they are imgur images and not talking hosting site images, secondly this may be from the browser you're using, maybe images have been disabled from it, try reset the settings from it, then also try use another browser to login to the forum and see if the persit or not, it may also be from your kind of device used in login into the forum.
409  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Newbies how do you feel when your post is criticised. on: January 16, 2024, 06:16:36 PM
Before starting this topic so many things have been on my mind because I know how it pains for someone to criticise a write up or a post.

Low quality post are criticized and not quality posts, shitposter and spammers as well we're being kicked against here, if you're not one of them, then you were only being corrected and not criticized, here we don't criticize on newbies, instead we encourage them to do more better and appreciate the little they have done, it is understood that nobody is perfect, but there are also ways we make mistakes when we are doing something and when corrected, we shouldn't feel being intimidated.

Additionally, I will sincerely advice all the newbies who are quick to anger or discouraged when their post are been criticised to see it as a means of learning and not to react rudely because mistake brings correction .

Any serious minded newbie who is indeed interested in learning will see everything you talked about as a stepping stone to what they are aiming to achieve and not as a criticism, except the newbies are doing the wrong things themselves.
410  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Who has tried buying via Bank on: January 16, 2024, 05:19:32 PM
I don't know if there are others still feeling cautious towards the ban been lifted
I personally haven't tried it
So would like to ask has anybody tried buying via bank?
If so how was the experience compare to P2P?

Hearing about Social engineering has affirmed my decision not to share my number via P2P.


The lift is just to allow the citizens use bitcoin or any other cryptocurrencies at their own risk, however, the banks were not allowed to get involved in any of these, it could be recalled that before the ban, banks were permitted to engage in cryptocurrencies until the announcement was made to stop them, so as at now, you can't use the p2p network through the banks they are still under ban, but every individual can choose to engage it on their own self.
411  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: WHAT IF? on: January 16, 2024, 04:40:18 PM
What if our school just ends In ss3 after which every one learns a particular relevant trade without going to the university? Wouldn't it give our youth the ability to specialize more in their chosen field thereby making them more productive?

You're talking about the primitive era when things haven't developed as we have them now, so what if you're not here on this forum, bitcoin was not developed, no internet and no mobile devices, there's standard to everything, we have to remain ever committed to the new developments and trends happening in the contemporary western world.

What if we don't need to hustle too much? We just get enough money that can feed ourselves and family and everyone just lives a simple lifestyle

We may also not know the value of what we worked for, we may not learn to appreciate what we have and some may not even be that committed to looking for more or working more harder.

What if we have no leaders? We just do our thing and live our lives the way we want o.

Believe me this will be worse, it would have been expected just as to make life at it's every simplicity, but human hearts are wicked and they cannot be as this without having a leader.

What if we don't have any set out rule? We just live our lives according to our believe system?

There will be no sin or law break, but will everyone do the same as being fare to one another.

 We love bitcoin because of it decentralized nature right? What about living a life that is void of a third party interference?  

This could also be achieved with bitcoin only if you learn how to engage on your privacy with high security measures.
412  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does it looks responsible as woman telling husband you gamble? on: January 15, 2024, 04:53:40 PM
Honestly as couples, we should be able to know ourselves well and be also accountable on each other, there's no how we can make a decision on our own without involving our partner, of your wife is just making a discovery of you being a gambler now over the time being you both have been together then you're a cheat and not to be trusted, there's no point hiding for your wife whom you're or what you do as long as you're being confident about it, so such woman can rake on her husband more than enough if she got to discover such.
413  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Has this forum helped you gain experience in bitcoin, share your experience on: January 15, 2024, 04:19:35 PM
For every serious minded individuals, this forum has been a source of knowledge on them because they have experience growth in virtually every aspect of their lives with bitcoin while on this forum, this start with the imminent knowledge acquired about bitcoin, the updates we see, how we promote what we do, how we see opportunities from what others offers and how we are being able to relate informations to with each other across the world through the forum discussion on each board, this is all about people's integration, I can't name all that I've acquired and achieved through this forum ever since i came.

Most of us are used to this kind of habit of complaining in everything around us, we complained about the people, government or the standard of living and other economic activities governed by human act, we don't know that the more we are getting used to this kind of life we will not be able to identify one single thing which is wrong and being able to take up the challenge in fixing it up, we neglect somethings we can do for our own little efforts to focus on other's, things like this is part of what makes life unfair to some other people.
415  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Our naija and cryptocurrency on: January 15, 2024, 12:33:01 PM
Mata carry am say even our C.B.N neva accept am as legal tender

CBN are not the one to approve bitcoin as a legal tender, the government will have to do that, but we are not much anticipated on that as before since the first step had been granted permission for, which is Bitcoin being recognized as a legal digital currency everyone can use.

Now despite this, the very educated literates and financial guru for obodo-naija know the impact of this cryptocurrency thing and how e fit transform lifes basically through investing in them

Not only the elites identified our that bitcoin is what they need, it's something that every person who identified something wrong with the fiat financial system wants to see happened, those that want change are indeed in need of bitcoin, this is what cryptocurrency has brought our ways, we have the freedom alternative of with bitcoin.

its important to not gamble more than you can afford to lose

Many will have this wrong motive that the more they keep gambling the more likely their winning chances increases which is completely wrong mentality, we shouldn't have taken such action in the first place, if we do then we should conclude our minds on wether it works out as planned or not, so when we gamble and loose the bet, we shouldn't feels bad about that, it has always been the same thing we know to have happened repeatedly.
417  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: ⚠️ Freewallet: the scam project that threatens thousands of customers on: January 13, 2024, 02:34:39 PM
This is unthinkable! I sent the company a photo of my ID and a selfie with a piece of paper with my name written on it. But even this did not help to unlock access to the wallet

They wouldn't, the best thing is never to have their kind with our asset, there's no amount of what you have provided that can make them accept to give you access to your asset, we have to always take good observations on choosing a platform or wallet to use before we becauses their victim, alot of people have already fallen to this kind and couldn't recover from their first experience with them, this could be so annoying and disappointing.
418  Economy / Speculation / Re: BitcoinETF approval will possibly cause much bigger jump than most people expect on: January 13, 2024, 01:04:55 PM
Of course, a rejection could result in a very big dump due to insurmountable disappointment as well.
As always: no investement advice because trading is very risky.

With the current market bear we are having, the price is going dip and more than expected, I have a feeling already, which is giving me notion that haven't the bull market happened right before the approval of the bitcoin ETF we are all talking about, or this is just a way to get more adequate preparations before the start of the bullrun, should we actually expect more bull market to come before the halving or we might remains bearish till the halving is done.
419  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Why people dey fear to invest in Bitcoin and crypto? on: January 13, 2024, 10:11:43 AM
Many people just get this belief say since nah wetin concern internet them no fit do anything called investment, unknowing to them that is the best place to invest on.
Even my uncle's saw it as a scamming thing, but they never knew it's the best place you can save any amount of your income in life.
And still have access to your money at anytime you need  access to your investment. You all should invest online and see how your life will change for good.

People have to exercise fear probably because they have been scammed before or they don't want to risk any chances of being scammed at all, once they hear anything that has to do with digital network, scam is the next thing that rang on their minds, I won't blame them because they don't want to loose the little they ha e while trying to earn more from it, but that's not an excuse to make for not being successful in life when we are not liable for taking risk.
420  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: What is your reason for not identifying in the Nigerian LB? on: January 13, 2024, 08:47:20 AM
Those that have taken it a consideration to appear here have nothing to loose neither those that didn't show up as long as they are active online and are making quality contributions, the reason for having a local board is just to have members who find it difficult to comprehend speaking or hearing English language have no language barrier for them to be able to express themselves on the forum in making their quality contributions, so if someone is fine and good with English language, there may be no need of expressing their interest on LB except they wish, moreover not everyone like that kind of personal interactions with other members, while some are just ok with English language.
