Its now a very regular experience with me.

when I open threads for some minutes may reading through it or trying to type, within that time if you want to post it appears and then I have to refresh the page or click the post button several times before it can finally go through.

Maybe that is what theymos has been working for some time now as a result of the increase in users of the forum.

I also have a little question; is it possible that since he installed it already that there could be malwares monitoring his phone?

If he did not start the app then the chances of a malware infection are near zero.
Unfortunately he did start the app but never imported any wallet into nor even create a new one.

Fortunately, he got a new device that I'm guiding him to set up a cold storage wallet in it.
523  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: Do not overwork yourself on: March 03, 2024, 04:42:48 AM
Long time ago I saw an old man hawking on the road, I felt so bad although my the journey, a trip I was supposed to be happy because I was going to explore places but I never felt happy after seeing this old man. then my mentor noticed how I felt and what he told me took the best part of me and I can't ever forget that. he said, boy.... you see him, if you don't kill the pleasures of your youth days and make it life, you will probably hawk same way.

So, from that day I prefer to work harder than my age, my time etc life is better at your youthful age and you must use that time of your life to work so hard in order for you never to suffer.

what I'm saying essence is you can skip sleep today but it will never kill you. you better work harder than yourself now than do at old age.

Perhaps you're very correct with your points that must be considered in order for a business to grow but basically from my perspective there are lots more to put into consideration to achieve success in ones area of business. Just as you mentioned {SIGHT} it's one of the major reasons some business falls, how can one be selling car part in a food market isn't that so improper? I'm considering sight for some people like me who like to go into importation and exportation of cars and its spare parts. if you wish to succeed in such business you must consider a mechanic shop, or it's best situated in a mechanical area because this are the set of people that can patronize you. Etc so it applies to every business.

There are lot more to discuss but it can't be over- exagggerated
525  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Does power really corrupt? on: March 03, 2024, 04:01:15 AM
When it comes to power we have to determine what power really is or what exactly are the powers going to do. mostly the power which leads to corruption is the political power. because it has to do with making decisions for the destruction of goods and services of the state and as a result people who are selfish in nature tends to exploit this little opportunity to create more wealth for themselves.

If not for political power many people would have not been recognized even with the money they have that is what we see people who are already rich trying to compete for a political power to create recognition and force around themselves and if this force is excessively granted then it turns man into a monster because of the inherit greed in our nature. 
526  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Communication as part of life in the society on: March 03, 2024, 03:48:53 AM
Communication is plays a major role I. the society at large, infact if not for communication we wouldn't be here in the first plays and the so called reason this forum was even created was to bridge the communication gap internationally in order to bring the community united.

According to some philosophers and sociologists, where there is no communication there is no life, even in the animal world there is communication via the sounds they make. this just to prove how important communication is in everyone's life.

In the aspect of business communication is the deriving force of an entrepreneur, if he she lacks communication skills the business seems to shrink in less than no time. so in order to put things together communication must be in place.
527  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why inflated countries should adopt Bitcoin to help boost their economy. on: March 03, 2024, 03:30:40 AM
Bitcoin honestly cannot handle a mainstream transaction volume. It will just jam the network and push the transaction fees to an an unacceptable level where the existing users will also suffer.
From my little knowledge I believe Bitcoin was never created to handle the mainstream transaction of a country, it was created as an alternative currency or payment method. it works Viz vice with the fiat of a nation.

there are little things that most be considered if it's going to be a country's standard payment method like goods that are worth less than a dollar etc. and it's transaction fee for such kind of goods. its probably not going to work in this current generation maybe another generation.
528  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: 2 Bitcoin Core wallet setup tutorial on: March 03, 2024, 03:10:44 AM
Sincerely I don't think there is any tutorial that exist with such description you've made, except you have to write them yourself after succeeding with this one.

I did a quick search to see if there exist a YouTube tutorial but I couldn't find one but here I found a post on Reddit[1] that has to be related but the truth is it has not enough details has you desired but I believe it could be a ground for your research.

I also think nc50lc could have a knowledge about this maybe if I mention him and he has solution then he would provide them manually because I believe there is no tutorial or written down format for it.

When everything's going well, it's cool. But sometimes (often?) money problems lead to divorce. Suppose your spouse/husband gambles a lot, his or her loss/profit ratio is acceptable (so it's fine), but then one day he or she has bet it all and lost it all. You've got nothing left (and no savings either). What's your reaction? Has this ever happened to you?
For me I have never heard or seen anything close to such reaction of couples. But my question is, there anything like love in such relationship? Because if there is then I don't think anyone will divorce his partner because of huge loss in a gamble because before hand one should have already know that his or her partner is into a thing of risk that might lead to a bad reaction some day. .

Anyone going into gambling should be aware of the pros and cons of it before venturing into it and divorce could be one of the consequences.
530  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you had this gambling experience? on: March 03, 2024, 02:14:57 AM
Its a very regular experience with gamblers. I especially had so many experience on that, some times ago I noticed that if I stake a good amount of money thinking that I will win big it turns out it doesn't work.

But when I'm not serious with it I just do whatever that comes into my head I win. so funny how I just decided that I will be at with some certain amount of money Incase I win, it will bring a little more profit than when I stake very low and then win, ever since that decision I haven't won but the day I did a little amount again I won.

From that experience I knew very well what people meant with the word gambling is solely a luck dependent game.
531  Economy / Economics / Re: Saving don't make wealth on: March 03, 2024, 01:59:15 AM
Firstly Bitcoin is also an investment but you could say if one has alot of profit from Bitcoin he or she could diversify but this rule only applies of only one has enough Bitcoin already in his portfolio before he or she could think of diversification.

Now there are various factors that could determine ones success so it's not only about savings, personally I believe what people call savings that might save you tomorrow is the emergency funds that we all know that it should be one of the first things to put into consideration before venturing into an investment and if your emergency funds or reserve funds is okay enough then you have no problem because it could save you from unforseen circumstances.

Lack of understanding of Investment makes most people make alot of wrong decision Investment. 
532  Economy / Economics / Re: Reckless financial decision ? on: March 03, 2024, 01:40:58 AM
I guess I can relate to this this post, or maybe i have heard of that decision some where.

The truth is wey the public only heard a little of the whole case so we might just be thinking that it's all about his weed addiction or love for weed that lead him to make such decision but for me it could entail more than we would here. mind you I believe this artist's (musician) manager is his mother and before such decision could be reached they know what it would have cost them if he attended the concert.

To us it's a reckless decision that could worth a lot of funds in his financial life but he prefer to maintain his decision or reputation of weed lover not to accept an amount worth millions. Its really a decision that was supposed to be thought twice before making such, I mean million dollars isn't a chicken change that someone could through away just like that except just as I said it has alot that it entails than we can hear.
533  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Try to stick to your instincts as a gambler on: March 02, 2024, 10:32:59 PM
For me some times I call my instincts my guardian because it helps me alot to make good decisions but sometimes I don't know when I get some stupid inspiration or ideas from because I make mistakes sometimes trying to follow my instincts mean while I should have just done what I wish to do but I do get something telling me not to. in regards to your own case it's not like your instincts was the correct one but it's just that it turn out to work in a way you didn't expect it.

On a serious note I think you should be happy that you didn't loss everything, I believe what is driving your regrets is greed. that you would have achieved more if you did it in a way but since you did then it seems like a bad decision while it was a good one because you didn't loss everything.
534  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Acquired knowledge from cryptocurrency indulgence on: March 02, 2024, 08:45:05 PM
Just as you have said, some of us here don't enough knowledge as others in the forum and I'm one of those who have little experiences, I have not been long in the forum and this my firstly bull run to experience and I believe it will give me a lot of experience once it's over.

In the crypto space the paradigm Bitcoin has been the best experience some of us has in the forum but I'm yet to be amongst them.
535  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Quick profit is the only reason why we invest in Altcoins on: March 02, 2024, 07:35:57 AM
Some reason why most people invest in Altcoins can’t be far from the profit but we can’t say profit is all they see as to why they buy and use Altcoins, Bitcoin is not only being hold by those who want to use and keep it we store of value they are also being hold for long time in other to enjoy the profit that will come with it.

If we are to talk about the privacy their are also some Altcoins which are privacy coins like the monero it’s a good option for anyone who want to hide their privacy, another reason why other can invest in Altcoin is for cheap and fast transaction, look at what was happening in time of bitcoin network congestion the pressure was moving to Altcoins which where used for as alternative for transactions just as they are supposed to be Altcoin (alternative coins).
I totally agree with you, one reason why I have heard some alt like Monero is for a privacy based ground, I cherish privacy to an extent that I wouldn't like to anyone to know any of my steps and since monero provides me that I went for it.

No, it quite the truth that op speaks it it doesn't practically apply to every one, this Altcoins are alternative to bitcoin incase anyone wants to do something with a digital currency and hence he or she couldn't afford Bitcoin then alternatives will be the option.
536  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Is Satoshi Nakamoto's networth ever being rated? on: March 01, 2024, 11:03:46 AM
Mia Chloe has said it all. its very much impossible to calculate an anonymous networth. Satoshi Nakamoto is an anonymous individual or organisation and he or she or them has to physical contact with people for us to know how rich he or she or them is.

Just very simple if I don't know you and nobody knows you, how then can I calculate your networth? we have to be in contact or see your physical assets and other assets that are linked to you before we can say this is all yours and as such this is your networth and you and I know that Satoshi is never to be seen or has not been seen, even his mined bitcoins are not in the same block so how then do we prove he owns them, it's not just possible to determine the net-worth of an anonymous entity.
537  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it possible to inherit a gambling debt? on: March 01, 2024, 10:51:04 AM
First the question is, is it possible for a lender to borrow some one money for gambling? from my perspective it's very difficult if not impossible. so any debt that could be inherited may likely not be borrowed for the purpose of gambling but was either used for gambling that is the truth.

As Oshosondy said there is always the presence of collateral or something for payment so it's quite not possible for the children to inherit the debt rather it will cost them some inheritance to settle those debt. all this are based my location and experience but it could be other wise in other places.

so now it's very much clear that in your location it could be possible, sometime ago I watch a video of how children where to pay the debt of there father who was a gambler, but he gambled for some politicians and with that he lost and was to pay but he died along the way. so the children had to pay for his gambling addiction this could also relate to your perspective of this case.
538  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: People that benefited are the holders on: March 01, 2024, 10:33:17 AM
Na truth say to hold bitcoin na the best option oo but the statement say anything wey traders dey tell you say na lie I no gree for that part at all, me I know people wey dey do trading and them get the money pas me and you ooh. so if them tell you say dem get this and that no be lie but the difference be say we dey run less risk than them when it comes to holding.

Just as this snr man don talk above I_Anime, him do give you better example to calm your mind about traders, him too understand weytin I dey try tell you and na the same thing him too dey express.

For the mata about exchange, me I no really get fear for any thing for this our country because them fit manipulate everything anyhow anyhow wey go gats get one or two ways tl withdraw our funds. I sew person wey just find him own way to collect him funds from binance without the p2p option and na why Nigerians no dey fail be that, the wisdom too much.

Although, exchange bulko for outside wey person go use instead of binance and the p2p option self still dey there. And for the bull run make we just try hold bitcoin small, at least get the one wey we no go touch. but for now make we dey manage small small because the economy too hash to talk say you just want hold everything you get, just hold but put yourself in a way wey you no go suffer because na survival mode 9ja dey now.
539  Economy / Speculation / Re: 100 Push-Ups A Day Until Bitcoin Is $100K Challenge on: March 01, 2024, 09:47:42 AM
It has been quite a while that I visited this party, I have been so ill lately that i couldn't keep up with a daily 100 pushups and I haven't updated you guys how far I've gone. Anyways I'm still sitting around a 1210 push-ups right now, i had to split it to different days and time as I said earlier in my post but I made it a bit close to expectation even with the illness.

Lately with the run of the bull, I'm not in doubt of reach a 100k in less than few more weeks and I believe by then y'all that kept on with a daily 100 pushups will be hitting close to a 5k push-ups or even more. The turnout of the bull run reaching a 63kish price as at when last I check, I love the movement and it turns out to be an increase for my love of Bitcoin.

Cheers to y'all keeping the challenge. much love guys
540  Local / Politics and society (Naija) / Re: A better leadership,a better Nigeria. on: February 29, 2024, 11:33:47 PM
A basic problem we as Nigerians have from my perception is that an individual is stronger than the system as a whole. if one person defaults the law it's negotiable for the offender to even be as free as he did nothing if not the country would have been better.

imagine if the judiciary system is working properly and independently, even Buhari would have been prison by now because all the crimes he committed would have been charged against him even this incumbent president too and other top personnels.  if this can be structured believe the good leadership we wish for will be chasing after us back to back because to leader will want to go against the will of the people because if case is filed against him then he will lose and face the punishment but since it's not possible as a result of high corruption system the good leadership will come in when we face another turn of military rule of if some who is genuinely good attain the office which is likely not a chanced.
