Reading the mistakes of others and it's best everyone learnt from their previous mistakes and coming back to invest in bitcoin is a good choice. I have never taken any wrong move with my investment and I don't think I will leave bitcoin investment for any reason or aspect of financial crisis. The only thing I'm regretting is I wished I knew about bitcoin earlier, I might have heard about bitcoin but I never took it so serious and I'm actually regretting but what's best now is I have started my journey and it's not too late to invest now.

The fact here is choosing bitcoin investment is a good choice for everyone who can understand and invest properly, students, workers, parents etc. They're some common factors stopping people from investing and sometimes people just have to endure those suffering to accumulate meanwhile students face difficulties with their investment.
Some of the difficult stories I see online are mostly students and we all know the pressure and expenses that comes with being a student, my little advice is students should learn skills and render their service to other students and get paid in return, by so doing that student will have extra money to buy and hold. Nothing comes so easily likewise bitcoin investment and if anyone wants to invest, some certain habit of spending unnecessary will be set aside in order to accumulate bitcoin.

If a person has small amount of funds to invest then I will suggest him to invest in bitcoin as we all know bitcoin is very safe to invest. Since small funds it will be safe to invest in bitcoin instead of investing elsewhere. First invest elsewhere.  If he faces loss then he will fall in the first position. So if he wants to earn profit from small funds, he has to choose Bitcoin and invest then he can make more funds from small funds.
Yes if a person has a small amount of funds to invest in the initial stage then it will be better and safer to invest in Bitcoin than investing in other coins. Bitcoin has a method that anyone can start investing in Bitcoin from any amount of money we can call that method as DCA. Many are already enjoying the benefits of investing in this method.
I don't see any other alternative to DCA method to get profit from investing. If any investor wants to make profit from investing then he must adopt DCA method. To use DCA method investor should always keep an eye on cryptomarket whenever cryptomarket.  At the time of dumping, investment should be done using DCA method, if you invest in it, the amount of profit will start increasing gradually. Otherwise, if you make a wrong decision to invest, there will be more chances of loss instead of profit.
Those who cannot afford to buy large amounts of Bitcoins invest their Bitcoins using the Dollar Cost Averaging method. Not only do we benefit from investing in the dollar cost averaging approach, but investing in this approach must continue and hold for the future. If you start investing your bitcoins with the DCA method and are not able to hold it for a long time then there is no value in investing in this method.
For those who are trying to invest in new real estate, it can be good to start investing with Bitcoin. When I first invested it was very difficult for me because I didn't understand about real estate investment at first so I invested all my money in Bitcoin. Slowly.  When I learned about investing, I started investing using DAC method without investing full money and gradually gained a lot of money.
Real estate investment and bitcoin investment are two different forms of investments. I'm still struggling to find the reason why you are asking someone who what invest in real estate to first in bitcoin. Your case is a different case given the fact that you don't understand real estate back then. Not everyone will be as lucky as you are. And it's possible you have known little about bitcoin, and you believe in it. So those who are not knowledgeable as you are, shouldn't be advised to forget about their plans of investing in real estate and jump into bitcoin investment which they never planned to to. If they do as you are advising, they are definitely going to sell it off along the line, one there is a fluctuation in bitcoin price towards the downtrend.
Firstly let's be realistic, there's no point comparing real estate and bitcoin investment in this thread. If you're actually referring to people who sell quickly then you're getting it wrong, bitcoin investment is a top choice using the DCA strategy, the reason why people choose this method is cause it allows you to have control when buying. We've heard a lot of stories about investors who buy in bulk and sometimes they get little or no profit due to the excess expenses at hand and they get forced to sell quick.
Those investors are totally different from knowledgeable investors that knows the system, investors who choose DCA know what they want and sometimes it helps in financial management whereby it allows you to invest and at the same time settle other needs.
In the aspect of knowledge, if I may ask what knowledge are you referring to, note when starting bitcoin investment it's not a must to acquire every knowledge at the same time, I started my journey with little knowledge and I'm still acquiring bitcoin knowledge. No one actually said you can't invest and learn at the same time, the only difference here is don't buy aggressively as a newbie
444  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Between new tokens and old tokens, which would you invest into? on: February 18, 2024, 09:11:40 PM
The answer to your question depends and in my opinion before choosing any coin you need to check the history first and it's likely some old tokens had a fall due to something that lead to the dump, now in this case I will definitely leave the old token and research for a better new token that has potential with good features. Meanwhile if this old token in question still has a great potential it's best going for the old token because no one can really tell about a newly token even with some observation you still can't predict rightly.
I will choose base on the conditions and the features of the token.
445  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Three gems in my view on: February 18, 2024, 08:50:34 PM
Sui, Arbitrum, optimism I guess you guys are fimilar with there 3 altcoins, which are less then 1year old, launched in 2023. When i track their performance i feel wonder cause they are owning layer-two blockchain and their growth speed is very higher then others good Altcoins. I found these altcoins Valuable for holding. What is your opinion about these altcoins? Are you holding any of these or have any plan to buy?
After reading the post I decided to make little research and I'm surprised with the coins listed above, I have so much interest in Arbitrum and the features shows the coin has potential in time to come. I must give a little credit and seeing the coins listed it might be a must to buy coin for some investors, I'm not so excited with the coins but you tried bring such here.
Talking about buying, I'm not interested for now and seeing this coin newly here without any solid research I will wait for awhile, I don't want to get mixed up with the price so I'm not thinking of holding those coins.
446  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: About Altcoins Investment Experience on: February 18, 2024, 08:34:54 PM
~~~
They both are a choice of many but, their existing price makes them not an easy investment. In the meantime, there are other altcoins that are similar to Ethereum that have good potential. From my knowledge, I would go for Solana, Cardano, and BNB, all three of them have the potential to pump as well as generate good profit for any investors
Bitcoin & Ethereum both already archive higher value and maybe many think these currency expensive & different to invest as you also mentioned. Basically who want to generate higher benefit from cryto, Bitcoin & ethereum aren't satisfactory investment for them but still have space to raise up 2/3 times higher from current value. And sol, ada, bnb are good for long time too and it isn't bad to hold such altcoins which will going to competitive with ethereum. That's why i told that potential altcoins are also important part of this crypto industry
I think this is your own opinion and it doesn't necessary mean people will think like this when talking about altcoins, some people when discussing about altcoins the first thing they'll think are newly project just like the thread we see here from newbies asking which best newly tokens to pump so they can earn profit.
I think the op is actually making a comparison with the altcoins he saved and some might bring profit while some will  dump, it's best for everyone to think carefully before investing in any coin regardless of what the op said and with everyone opinion or personally from my opinion bitcoin should not be compared to other tokens.
447  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Top 10 Gainers Among Token on: February 18, 2024, 08:07:33 PM
It's our main objective to be able to figure out the trending coins that will pump and scout out good measures to hook up ourselves and entries on these tokens.
It's everyone desire. One upon a time i try to predict which coin will pump trough experience and observation, sometimes we can predict it when we know some token/coin get listed in some exchange.
But most of the time we don't know when it's gonna pump
When talking about predictions I believe an experience investor can give full details on how to predict rightly but in my opinion I will rather go for observation and I will love to ask more questions about the coin like being curious etc.
Some tokens listed in exchange are not newly tokens, sometimes tokens like this has been for long and might have experience something that lead to a downfall, if those tokens get listed now as a good tokens, I don't think I will buy and I will prefer to go for newly ones I'm sure will pump and sometimes we just have to make our choice wisely.
448  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is investing in altcoin futures a good idea? on: February 18, 2024, 07:33:33 PM
Well, my goal was to make some money with the futures, and then I could invest in Btc or Eth and wait
Everyone definitely want profit when investing but it should be done in an appropriate way, an investor should always think smart and act fast especially when dealing with altcoins, firstly you should know the kind of altcoin that'll bring profit without loss and if you make a perfect research you'll find one but it still sounds risky, they're a lot of altcoins popping in now and with this strategy of buying and wanting to sell to accumulate bitcoin is a nice one.
My little advice here is make your own research first and know what you want for yourself, when dealing with investments like this it's best to always make research and never be in haste to buy or rather never buy aggressively without having a plan.
449  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: February 17, 2024, 08:54:39 PM
Nobody expected Manchester City to lose points. At least in my circle, no one made such a prediction. We know that the Premier League is a very competitive league and we know that there will always be matches like this. No match is won without playing, and today Chelsea showed this to football fans. Before the game I didn't think Chelsea could get a point and I knew City needed this win to win the title. City lost points in this match and suffered a great loss in the race.

Chelsea's goal was scored in the 42nd minute and City could not do what they wanted because they did not react early to this goal. Manchester City should not lose points like this in their home matches.

The game between Manchester City and Chelsea came as a huge surprise to me because I never anticipated that Manchester City would share points with Chelsea, especially considering Manchester City's usual dominance, particularly when playing at home. Given their current performance compared to Chelsea's, I had expected Manchester City to easily secure a win. At this level of competition, where every match is crucial in the race for the Premier League title, such unexpected results can significantly impact a team's chances.

With this draw, Manchester City's chancing of winning the title is reducing, and the competition for the Premier League crown is becoming even more intense. The points difference between the top three teams is now very close, adding to the uncertainty and excitement of the title race. Overall, this unexpected outcome highlights the unpredictability and competitiveness of football at the highest level, keeping fans on the edge of their seats as the season progresses.
I actually thought city will dominate during the second half but Chelsea had a lot of pressure today to withstand the force, during the second half Manchester city really dominated and surprising they could not score an extra goal, the time duration caused everything cause if they had an extra more time of which is impossible they would have score an extra goal, I really felt the impact city boys put into the match to secure 3 points cause they can't afford to lose the game now  but it was still not enough to win the game.
Arsenal at the other hand are back to the winning ways and seeing Arteta doing an excellent job as a young coach is amazing. Right now let's watch what will happen next and Arsenal right now can't afford to share any point or lose that's why they need to be careful, I don't know what's next for Liverpool cause they're also competing so hard. The competition is so tough.
450  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Newbies abeg on: February 16, 2024, 08:55:28 PM
Freedom of speech shouldn't be a medium for someone to speak outside common sense and rational thinking. We have a local board, what sense does it make for him to go to the wider community to advertise our weakness and convince people of our scamming prospects?. Freedom of speech is good, but making others look stupid after you must have expressed yourself is irrational. We are here fighting for recognition in the forum and to have a moderator and merrit sources and someone from within us is out there convincing the world that we are all scammers, how they wan take us serious?

Know that we have forum recognition. What that matters that gives recognition on this forum is your posting quality and not how bad your country is.

Do not praise Nigeria as if there are no scammers. The country economy is bad. Lack of employment makes many youth to take cyber criminal activities as work. The guy is not wrong at all. Can you not even see what is happening internally in Nigeria now. There is something wrong internally and externally, as long as people wants to make money. You see the high rate of kidnapping, all for a means to make money.

Do not say you want forum recognition that people should not have freedom to post what is going on in their country. If you think that he is wrong, go and post there and correct him like I have posted before. And in fact, you have nothing to correct than the world itself cruel. The economy was bad, it got worse, scammers increased in number. That is not wrong.
Firstly I don't get what you're trying to say and I wished I understood what the op is trying to create right now, people should understand the difference between creating topic for discussion and informing the public about the current situation, I wished the op would have written something better like after listing the problems try and create something new like a solution for everyone to learn. After blabbing and talking nonsense everyone will still face the hardship then there's no point creating such nonsense like "if you're not rich you can't feed well" like who asked for such opinion.
Everybody here know say the country current situation too hard so why informing the public without listing a solution, I believe everyone is here to learn so I can decide to learn from one or two opinion listed but there's nothing to even learn.
Talking about reputation, just one post can't tarnish the reputation of naija and it can never happen, the information the op passed out is just a normal inform and every country get this scam issue not only naija, I can't paint another country black because of what I heard for example, naija get scammers but in the midst of bad eggs good eggs go definitely dey.
451  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Will AI Take over the Position of VAR? on: February 15, 2024, 09:59:05 PM
Introducing an AI now is not a bad idea but I don't think this will happen sooner or later, I think some reasons might be attributed to this decision and if FIFA wanted to make this decision it would have been announced since but we've not heard of such yet.
I will also support this decision cause aside making mistakes some mistakes get too obvious and sometimes the annoying decision can ruined the game, I have seen a lot of unfair decision but still the game has to go smoothly for things to be in order.
452  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Why social media influencer is a danger to our newbies on: February 14, 2024, 08:15:02 PM
I will not blame those influencers neither will I blame the victims, the victims are ignorant and sometimes fear of the unknown can lead to this meanwhile those influencers are just there to make their money.
In as much as everyone wants profit with their investment or trade we should be careful with common mistakes like this people faced earlier that lead to loss etc.
Talking about trading, I know a lot of people just want to make the money sharp and wanting to seek help or signals from others, some will go ahead depending on online tutorials like random videos on YouTube where people who bear the name expert try to share their knowledge and opinion. I never try am before but it's best to always ask someone who get involve with those video if they're really making profit, always ask questions and if possible take more time to learn first before taking any step further.
Secondly those influencers you mentioned never begged anyone to follow their page but traders just willing followed the page for more info, another method to prevent all this is don't get involve with almost all influencers page you meet online cause not all influencers are to be trusted.
Lastly know what you want as a trader or rather know what you're going for, in my opinion na confused people dey easily get lured to all this loss on social Media.
453  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: February 14, 2024, 02:04:21 PM
Historically, many folks have gotten overly greedy with their bitcoin and they put their bitcoin with third-parties in order to receive interest or yield and then they end up getting fucked.. so frequently it is not worth the risk to be using those kinds of interest bearing products in relation to your bitcoin, unless you can have some confidence that they are not gambling with your BTC too much.. which is truly difficult to assess because sometimes they are lying to you about what they are doing with your BTC in order to earn the yield.

That's why I don't like that yield farming or anything you call it which have long months or years lock-in since we don't know if they could able to last for long period of time.

Usually what we can see there is they turn scam and they take those balances and fucked up all their investors.

Much better if they just save their bitcoin on their personal wallet since they have total control of their funds and they can do whatever things they like especially selling it when they want pinch some profit.
Greed is really a terrible thing. If not greed, what will make someone give something as precious as Bitcoin to a third party? I see yield farming and the likes as ponzi schemes where the promoters lure people with huge ROI, they will pay the first set of people so they will spread the testimony to attract more people into their scheme where they will continue to gauge the level of cash inflow and will disappear as soon as they meet their target. I remember falling for those ponzi schemes then and it was not a good experience.

Only if people can see the power there is in owning Bitcoin, a treasure you hold that will never be affected by inflation and have the potential of generating unimaginable ROI. Bitcoin is one of the investment that requires the least input and maintenance, the job is done once and nothing is required to give you a lifestyle that you will be happy about. Provided you made the investment with money you don't have any urgent need of, money you can afford to leave in your bank for several years without being perturbed, then you will enjoy the beauty of Bitcoin.

Anyone that is privileged to learn about Bitcoin investment should take it seriously as it might just be a way of securing your future without you even knowing. The small fractions of your income you inject into Bitcoin might just be your biggest investment in the future.
Talking about privacy I believe one of the primary reasons of creating bitcoin was to gain full control of your money and knowing every single details about your money like being in charge so what's the point of giving a third party to control and hold.
I have heard similar testimonies like this online and I strongly believe people who share those testimonies are part of the team and project, sometimes things like this happen and you'll see testimonies like; I have tried this and it worked and surprising you'll see so many people giving testimonies like this under the page, I believe no one actually paid them but there's a group of people who form those gang to share false news. The moment people understand about holding bitcoin and the terms the lesser we will hear different stories like this about ponzi scheme. In this situation there's nothing much to say as most people have learnt the hard way and promised not to get involve with any third party.
454  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Bitcoin Investment VS Betting 😱😱😱😱 on: February 14, 2024, 01:16:28 PM
This argument is irrelevant and sometimes you don't have to bother getting involve in such argument. If we start arguing about gambling and bitcoin what should we tell people comparing gold and bitcoin or other valuable asset.
Gambling is totally different from bitcoin and besides a lot of people tag bitcoin investment as a risky investment but still if invested properly at the right time you will get to understand why people choose bitcoin investment.
Gambling is just a game we play to win or lose, I can decide to stake a bet  now or any day and I will still be expecting my win or lose within a short period of time because gambling works with luck  but bitcoin investment doesn't work that way cause you have to wait for a very long time before  expecting any profit. Bitcoin is a valuable asset people buy and store for future use  just like gold.
There's nothing to argue about expect your friend is referring to trade and a lot of strategy people use in trading still doesn't serve as gambling.
455  Economy / Economics / Re: Why we should prioritize investment over saving on: February 13, 2024, 10:42:08 PM
Saving our hard earned money have never been a bad idea, but their are certain things we need to consider before thinking of saving, such as inflation.
Inflation is truly the real enemy to every money that is being saved up, because when the time is right like a year time, when it should be used for it purpose, the value wouldn't be as how it actually was when you started saving it, but on the other hand, if we have been investing that money into Bitcoin, land or gold bit by bit, over the course of a year, the value of that your investment would have added additional value compared to our savings that will be eaten up by inflation.
So too me we should think of investing more of our money than saving it, so that  inflation wouldn't eat it up.
Your not wrong but it depends which way and how long will the person invest, let's not just view our investment as money supplier every year or something else. Everyone have their different reasons for investing and some might have another reason for saving their money using fiat currency, in what ways investing should be more preferable compared to saving. You can mention so many investment like gold, bitcoin etc but some investment might not serve as profit due to lack of understanding as an investor, what I'm trying to say is knowing the kind of investment and understanding the terms before investing is the best.
Let's not forget investing requires money and sometimes you need to exhibit the habit of patient or else you can't invest for long.
456  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: February 13, 2024, 11:05:06 AM
My thoughts on the Copenhagen vs Manchester City game
Copenhagen are a disciplined and organised team who surprised many by getting out of the Champions League group. They can hold the ball up well and are dangerous on the counter-attack. But it won't be easy for them to play against City. Manchester City are in good shape. The Citizens have de Bruyne back, Haaland scored at the weekend. City will control the ball, create chances and have the advantage. The probability of Copenhagen's success is low, given the strength of their opponent. I think Guardiola wants to solve all questions in ths match. Therefore, my prediction is a win for the English, they are favourites. I assume that in this game City will win, and there will be at least three goals scored.
Ever since they released the round 16 draw I knew Manchester city will definitely win the match, there's nothing to argue about, although I'm not too familiar with Copenhagen skill but I've watched matches like this so I'm definitely predicting the match in favour of Manchester city. Kevin is back and that's enough reason why city boys will defeat Copenhagen.
The return of Kevin has impacted the team and truly the combination of Haaland, Kevin will be so good and interesting to watch
457  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: February 13, 2024, 10:26:38 AM
Yep, Chelsea isn't a club who often score a goal in the late, so it's really surprising how they can score 2 goals during injury time.

I feel like Chelsea was lucky, Crystal Palace is a mediocre club, but Chelsea still struggle to beat them. Crystal Palace had a terrible history, they rarely won in this season. We will see the real Chelsea's improvement in the next five days, they will face Manchester City in Etihad Stadium.
Well, Chelsea's victory in that match was like luck. But Chelsea's performance is indeed much better than Crystal Palace. Even in the record of meetings between these two teams, we can see that Crystal Palace always loses to Chelsea. But getting 2 goals in the extra minutes was just like luck. But this luck was also created due to the persistence of the Chelsea players who continued to attack the Crystal Palace defense and dominated the match from the first half until the final minute. So this victory is indeed a worthy victory and also does not come as any surprise to anyone.
What I observed from both teams during the second half, crystal palace had more than two chances to score but due to the defense it was just too difficult and Chelsea at the other hand had multiple chances to score but they managed to score two extra goal, if Chelsea had applied more pressure during the first half I think they would have gotten 2 goals before the second half, although this is not so easy because crystal palace had good attack and defense with this the match looked so tough for Chelsea. I'm still surprised how Chelsea managed to score two goals within a short period of time, I'm thinking it's due to their pressure and possession during the second half like I said before Chelsea really had  good chances compared to crystal palace.

SIX goals!!! in 65 minutes for Arsenal away at West Ham's London stadium. West Ham are known as "the hammers"  but today, they are the one getting hammered. The Home team, West Ham hasn't managed a shot on target in 65 mins while conceding 6 in 65. Saka gets 2, Trousard, Gabriel Magalhães, Rice and Saliba get one each.
Hehehe, I think they are being hammered by the bullets from the Gunners. I didn't expect them to play this way, seeing as they are usually comfortable when they get a certain number of goals but it looks like they came ready for west Ham today. Maybe if they score one more, they will manage to complete the humiliation by spelling WEST HAM. Interesting!
I also didn't expect such from Arsenal but I'm definitely  happy for the team and their brilliant performance each matchday, this is a real definition of coming back and not just to score goals but dominating in all aspect. The performance we watch each matchday from Arsenal shows they're improving and it's likely the competition will be too tough.
I managed to observe the strategy Arsenal used and if they continue using this strategy they'll definitely win all match, they used the first half to dominate and managed to score 4 goals within 14mins, this is amazing and same west ham won Arsenal at Emirates stadium.
460  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Taking a break in gambling on: February 10, 2024, 10:32:12 PM
Taking a break for awhile is not a big deal cause I don't gamble always and besides I don't take gambling so serious, I only bet when I have the money for bet but if there's no spare funds, I will wait for awhile.
Sometimes when I see people talking about their addict lifestyle and they can't resist the act for a day I will be surprised. The reason why people like this still find it difficult to take a break or quit is because they stayed too long with the act like spending more time to gamble and it'll take time for such person to quit
