As far as I can remember, epileptic electric power supply has been the order of the day in my country, 24 hours constant power supply is a privilege that happens sometimes. Power outage can last for days and when light comes, it won't last for 24 hours before it's taken again, so almost every household has an electric generator that uses fuel. Different governments will come and give fake promises that there'll be constant power supply, but it's all a lie, as I'm typing now, there's no light in my neighborhood since yesterday evening, when my batteries and power banks are running low, I'll have to switch on my electric power generator that uses fuel. This has been affecting the cost of doing business for many years because you must plan on how you'll need to generate power, which is expensive, buying and servicing your generator and constantly buying fuel or diesel, plus noise pollution everywhere, it's really crazy.

I think that sending the dust token to a genesis block should be the safest thing to do in such a scenerio when a scammer sends you the token to scam you, so that he'll meet a dead end there. Ofcourse the price for this is the transaction fees, especially as it's high now, but it's a high price to pay if you want to completely move on from the scammer's reader.

It's a common practice here in the forum, I'll see newbies accounts that'll from their first post trying to promote a new project, with all the hype and promises that the token will make investors rich, but as usual experienced members will always counter them that it's a scam. I've even seen a new account that promoted a project on this board, and like 10 other accounts that were also created immediately began to also hype the project, the whole thing became so childish. Any genuine project that wants to promote in this forum should do the right thing, like Eloncoin.

To a layman in the community where I live, they unfortunately attributes crypto to scam, maybe because of the tales of shitcoins that they've heard how it ruined people's capitals, and they'll put Bitcoin in that category because they're all cryptocurrencies. I wish that we can differentiate Bitcoin from the many scam projects because they're all called cryptos, just like we that are into the space differentiates Bitcoin, by calling others altcoins. I guess that the name "crypto" has come to stay, so we'll just have to tell the few people who cares to know about the difference between Bitcoin and the rest.

No be lie, dis ongoing high transaction fees na serious matter for people wey wan sale dem Bitcoin, as di mempool still de congested, so di best thing na to find alternatives means to avoid di fees. Di options wey our people don bring for dis thread go work, so wen di transaction fees normalize dem we go come back to business as usual, I hope say Bitcoin developers go find a lasting solution to dis congestion wahala wey de affect di usage of Bitcoin as a digital cash. Lastly, for dis bull run, if person get oda sources of income, e no good to sale your Bitcoin now, as e go be premature selling.

Memecoins generally are pump and dump, so any investors that wants to buy any should understand that they're gambling their funds, because most of them are scams. I used to wonder why the Solana, network don't have a sort of regulatory framework to checkmate these scams and denting the reputation of their network, then I realized that Solana, is in the Blockchain business to make money, and any project that meets up the demand of their paperwork gets a pass whether they're scam or legit. Now it's left for investors to decide whether to patronize these projects or not.

I'm happy for an award like this to recognize and celebrate exceptional individuals, whether they're dead or alive, who had worked to make Bitcoin what it is today, and a research of deserving individuals, the name Hal Finney, will surely appear. I wouldn't worry about the criteria that the organizers will use to get future awardees, I'm sure that it'll be names that we know and are deserving of the award. I don't know if there's any awards or recognition to the creator of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto?

I think that the main reason why this new generation don't want to do the traditional works, where they'll work from morning till evening and receive salary at the end of the week or month is that they can stay in the comfort of their homes and earn even more money online. So why sweat and get their hands dirty, when they can conveniently relax and work in a conducive environment, make their money with their smart phones or computer. If there was internet and this level of technology in the older generation, the folks then would've probably done what this new generation is doing now, so I guess they're privileged to have the internet to earn incomes from it.

I don't think that we should be worried about who will do this traditional works, because we have billions of people on earth and everybody can't work online, some will always find passion in the traditional works.

I think that it depends on the type of political structure in a country, but in the modern politics, where democracy is practiced, political parties are important, where the opposition will be checkmating the excesses of the ruling party. I think that one party system will not eradicate corruption and bad leadership, because politicians will still form cliques in the one party system, so despite the system of governance that a country adopts, what matters to the masses is good leadership. One party system can breed dictatorship, where there'll be no external forces outside the party that'll call them to order if they're not doing the right thing.

Thanks for this clarification, because I've often wondered that if a forum member wants to ask a genuine crypto related question in a foreign local board, probably planing to travel to the country or is infact in the country, that the barrier of not using translator to post in foreign languages will be a disadvantage. It's good to know that there's a clause to breaking the rules of posting in a board that you can't speak and write in their local language, it's only allowed if it's an important question that perhaps concerns your crypto transaction in their country.

I've always known that this forum is very organized and the reason for breaking a rule when you post in a foreign local board  is so you not to spam their board, but exceptions to the rule is when you're asking a genuine question that you need help from the locals.

I used to wonder the same thing too because I've never seen where a new project is being promoted by high ranked forum members, except perhaps for a few top altcoins like Ethereum and BNB, they only contribute in discussions. Like Zaguru12, have clarified, I agree with him that reputable forum members are more focused and interested on the most reputable crypto being Bitcoin, and they don't want to dent their reputations by hyping or promoting a project that can end up being a scam. There are more scam projects than legit ones, and they keep increasing everyday

Any experienced Bitcoin holder will not worry that it's not pumping yet after the halving, it's not a get rich quick scheme, so the OP and others that are expecting a miraculous surge in price will have to wait a while.

As for the SAFE project, I guess that it's safe to say that it's safety rate has greatly diminished, which unarguably means that it's dead. Maybe it's dev. team can come up with an innovative plan to resurrect it.

Na you opinion you talk for dis sentence wey I quote you so, because wetin you talk be di opposite of di reality, infact na because of multiple or anoda source of income matter, na im carry most of us enter di forum, as a matter of fact again, person wey no get job no fit to do Bitcoin investment or trading.

Bitcoin investment is a part to financial freedom and anybody that joins the hodl will surely reap bountifully, because it's a store of value. It's however not possible for everybody to follow these part of financial prosperity when they hodl Bitcoin, so it's left for us that have seen it as an asset that it's value will keep increasing, and those that'll see in the future what we're seeing now.

It's true that if you fail to plan, then you've planned to fail, therefore it's very important to plan for old age, because old age must come, unless the person unfortunately dies young, in old age you won't have the strength to work and earn money to take care of your responsibilities, without help from loved ones, the person will live a miserable life. So it's very important to have budget for your income, and try to save and have an investment, no matter how small, so you can fall back on them when you're old.

Although many people especially in underdeveloped countries where poverty is much, they don't even make enough money to feed their families, not to talk about having savings or investments, they're so impoverished that they only struggle for food to eat. In their own cases, you can't really blame them for not saving or investing for their futures, because even when they have the mindset to invest, their poverty will not let them to actualize it.

I think that it's still quite early to speculate whether he's not going to reinvest it into Bitcoin, atleast I don't think that there's an official comments from him yet, it could be that he wants to use the money for other things that would be profitable to him or to offset some huge bills. I don't believe when someone tells me that they're never going to cash out some of their investments at some point, because you cannot keep accumulating indefinitely without taking something sometimes, that's the essence of investments.

Trading campaigns are not for every traders, newbie traders, inexperienced traders and traders without sufficient trading funds will likely not win in these competitions, they'll end up over trading and burning out their limited trading capital. Whale traders and experienced traders are the most suitable contestants to win these competitions because they have the money and skills to go far and win. Just like the casino owners, the trading competition organizers are not charity organizations, they're into business to make profit, and the more competitor's means more fees and popularity, so as they're rewarding winners, they're also gaining.

The biggest mistake that anybody can make is marrying the wrong person, the kind of spouse you have will go a long way to determine your happiness or sorrow, so it's very important to know the kinds of qualities that you want in a marriage, although it's not possible to get a perfect partner but let the person poses some important qualities that you need. I don't think that reasonable person will go into marriage with the intention of divorcing their partner, but unfortunately the rate of divorce in our societies is on the increase now, couples no longer tolerate each other's shortcomings, and very little matter that can easily be resolved will lead to divorce.

Couples with children needs to consider the innocent children that they brought into this world before considering divorce, because these will not experience the joy of being raised by loving parents. Inasmuch as I don't endorse divorce, a partner is better of alone than remaining in a toxic relationship.

This is a good advice to the newbie, some newbies join this forum because they've heard that ranked up members earn BTC rewards in signature campaigns, and to be eligible you'll need to get enough merits to rank up. When they join and the merit is not coming their way as fast as they'd expected, they'll become very frustrated and their morale will become low to continue in the forum. It's best to join the forum as a newbie, with the intention to learn about Bitcoin and the crypto space, gain knowledge and theoretical experience on it's investment and trading, that will be more beneficial in their crypto journey.

Let getting merit to be a secondary desire for any newbie in the forum, when they've increased their crypto knowledge and begin to manifest it in quality posts, other forum members will notice the posts and some will reward it with merit.

Halving has opened the door for cryptos to bull in this season, and you've mentioned the top three to look out for, being Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana, and ofcourse other top altcoins, we're expecting these projects to reach reasonable ATH in this bull run. It's also a time to explore smaller gems like you called them, and there are a lot of them that you'd be confused on the one to choose from the pack, that is where researching and getting recommendations for legit projects that can bull and give ROI in this season. I hope that you've diligently researched this ATOR project, if they have a good team, like the other contributors have suggested, then the project can gain reputation and fullfil it's use case.
