541  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How many scams have you caught? on: December 05, 2023, 07:07:28 PM
I have seen many cases of fraudulent projects on this forum https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=83.0
What I want to ask you is how many times have you been caught in a scam project?
And what factors deceived you?
Please share your experience with me so that I can be careful in the world of cryptocurrency.
Thanks.
The promises made by a project team always draw my attention.
There is a project that I believed in back then, they promised great returns, and I invested in the project even though it was not a large sum, and seeing that the project has been promoted here in the forum and it was launched in API protocol that will promise big profits, I decided to invest in it again. I realized it was greed that led me to believe such a project would reward me, and I was duped because I can't get my money back.

The lesson to always remember is to avoid becoming greedy.

Slow and steady wins the race every time. Trading and gambling are two distinct activities that share certain similarities and differences.
Both are very risky. 
Both provide a profit and both have the potential to lose money.

The primary distinction is that in gambling, once you stake a game, that money is either gone or will return profit, however in trading, you can see what you bought unless it's feature trading, which is quite similar to gambling.

1. Learn about the volatile market
2. Learn how to analyze chart
3. Take your time to practice demo trading before going into real trading.
4. Do not be greedy, take profit when it’s best to do that, do not hope to get the whole world at a time.

These factors are highly significant and are the basic pillars of trade; nevertheless, they are not always simple to keep; however, if they can be kept, there will be no problems in the trading journey.

It's difficult because not everyone is suited to trading and if it's possible not to trade crypto then why force it which will often only lead to losses, if only because you want to make money in the crypto world there are other ways besides trading, namely investing in Bitcoin which is much calmer compared to trading which basically looks easy to buy cheap and sell expensive but there are other things apart from that.
Yes but for people that understand the concept behind any success. Some people are greedy and are willing to feel among, especially when they see people making it through crypto trading, some will jump intoning without learning the fundamentals which as you said will lead them to loss; whereas they they can just simply invest in bitcoin or even altcoin and wait patiently for profit.


While it's nice to admit about how hard it is, there are people that are making it look easy for the most without their admission that it's truly hard. Even the experienced traders from the other markets say that trading crypto is not that easy at all and the same goes to the typical markets that they've been trading.
We have different ways of understanding and there are fast learners and slow learners, but to be sincere I am still learning about trading because I know it is difficult and jumping straight into it will not give me good profit if I didn’t learn it well.
Although it is easier for some people and they are making it big, I also want to make it big some days that’s why I am taking time to learn it the hard way.

Trading is the most difficult aspect of cryptocurrencies for me to learn. You must first understand about bitcoin and cryptocurrencies before moving on to trading and its techniques, risk management, and how to apply stop losses in trading. All of this is really difficult and will take some time before you get to know them better, and then you will have to wait patiently for a long time before you grasp everything.

After I read it here which is the first time, a family friend posted it on his WhatsApp status he said he also received the money and he put a link to fill the form. Well I have filled the form after scrutiny that I don't have to enter a BVN or NIN or even upload an ID. Right now we wait. What troubles me about the form is, I was expecting that since it is coming from the Federal Government who would not fill a Google form but a customized form. There is no measure to ensure that you cannot fill the form more than once.
This kind google forms went viral online in the past, but the fear of scammers make me no believe any of them because I no de like leak my sensitive information, na why I no even put down any of my personal details for any form for once.
For people wey don get, congratulations, and for us wey never get, na to de wait see, but make we also know say all this kind donation na for people we know road because u need connect to get anything for Nigeria.
546  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Established Altcoins or new potential coins this bullrun ? on: December 04, 2023, 09:23:14 PM
As we are either in bull run or approaching it I wanted to understand about investment opinions from fellow users as Bitcoin will remain the first choice of investment but if we want more profit we know we have to go ahead with Altcoin for higher profit with higher risk involved. But when it comes to Altcoin would you prefer the established coins like ETH, XRP, Matic, BNB and SOL or wanna give a chance to newbuds which will bloom during this bullrun ? Existing ones who has pumped during last bullrun or new finds ? Which one would be your choice of investment?

I would prefer new Altcoins which is entering bullrun for the first time.
Going for already existing altcoins is not the best option if you really want a huge profit during this bull run because they have reached a certain trading volume that they cannot do at 10x their current price. Therefore, instead of investing in such existing altcoins, it is better to invest in bitcoin to minimize the risk.

Taking risks is critical in every investment. If you want to make a lot of money during this bull run, you should invest in new crypto projects with a lot of potential because they can easily make multiple times their initial listing price, but the risk is very high because there is no guarantee that you will make it.

I don't think that there's much that X,com can do about this, it's a public domain, therefore the good, bad and the ugly all have access to their service. Besides this problem is not peculiar to them, any public domain like Facebook, WhatsApp, telegram and the rest of them are also  hubs for this scammers to advertise their evil deeds. The only thing that we can do is to inform our loved ones to be on the lookout for these phishing website ads on social media, to also bring the information to groups that we belong to, so people can be informed and avoid these traps.
X.com is a public domain, as you said, but some public domains or social media do have restrictions on some actions that are part of their policy, and they are strictly followed even though scammers are violating some of them.Twitter's mode of verifying accounts is now terrible, making it not a safe place to rely on because everyone can buy a blue tick, unlike other platforms where you have to meet certain requirements before your account gets verified, so that when a verified account shares something that is not good or promotes a scam, the platform can easily track them and know the right action to take against them.Nevertheless, Twitter has been a home for scammers because it is one of the platforms that promote cryptocurrency.

Ok but it sucks

Search has no result on "guid to set profile picture. "
This is not a social media platform mate where you can set your profile picture; it is a forum where users stay anonymous for security reasons that’s why I think it is not possible for everyone to reveal his/her identity.

I don’t think newbie can set any picture (Avatar). You need to become at least full member in the forum before you will be grant the opportunity to set a picture in form of avatar.

We have an opportunity to have full control of our money. A system different from the traditional banking system, so what purpose is moving from the traditional banking system if you'll just end up keeping your money in a centralized exchange?
To bring solutions to banking systems and centralization that is why Bitcoin was created to give us financial freedom, but exchanged come to support the system in form of market to enable us get Bitcoin and other crypto easily through their services, but some of us start leaving our coin in their wallets because it is easy to hold in there, but the risk involved is very big and people need to consider the risk of leaving your coin in there since it is the same as banking system.
550  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: "Bitcoin investment is the key to success" on: December 01, 2023, 09:57:48 AM
Although I am a new user I haven't spent much time here on this forum. But I already had some knowledge about Bitcoin since mid 2022. At that time I was in college and knew about Bitcoin since that time I saved my college stipend money and invested it in Bitcoin and gradually saved fractions of good Bitcoins there. When I collected and invested my stipend, Bitcoin was at a much lower value, and I made a lot of profit at this point. I might have made more profit if I had held it longer, but I bought the thing by selling bitcoins for one of my essential tasks. I had an opportunity to study in university after completing my college life and there I really needed a laptop but didn't have enough money to buy it, family financial problems were also a lot. Having no choice, I sold my invested bitcoins to buy a laptop for my work needs, and I decided to study there as well as freelancing. However, the current bullishness of Bitcoin that I see in the market seems to indicate that Bitcoin will rise even more very soon.  If I had held on to my bitcoins I might have made more profit when the bull market started. But I have no way to do this because I don't have money, but I will try to raise money and invest again in bitcoins to hold on. However, I have benefited from selling my bitcoins currently and using them for my needs, but I feel like I missed out on a huge profit.
You made the right decision at the right time because it is good you get what you want at the right time than wait for long without having it done.
Your initial plan of saving bitcoin during your college days is the best thing you have don and it has encouraged you because Bitcoin saved you when you need it, therefore, you did no t regret your saving and you are happy Bitcoin is still here for you to invest again.

Since you have freelancing work doing right now, you can still be saving in bitcoin through DCA method; meaning you will be be saving some percentage of your savings in bitcoin monthly or weekly.
551  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: November 30, 2023, 08:04:09 PM
Saudi Pro League is competitive and we have strong hopes that these SPL clubs will start playing against European clubs in less than no time. After all they have gain the necessary popularity in the world of football and its now time to grow the league to become one of the stable and most viewed league. Cristiano Ronaldo was and will be the greatest player in the history of football. He's enchanced with incredible qualities and he's worth every hype he's currently getting from football. Saudi Arabia provided a path for the undisputed GOAT to come over and he accepted after crashing out with Manchester United headcoach, Erik Ten Hag.
Cristiano Ronaldo has made a great impact in the League because when he move to Al Nassr, many people tends to start given the league attention, and as a result of that, the league became popular and many players from Europe top teams joined some of the teams  and as a result of that, the league become popular and it is consider as a top league in the world right now.
552  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Saudi Professional League 2023/2024 on: November 30, 2023, 06:07:11 PM

I believe, Ronaldo decision to leave Manchester United is the right choice, and I think this is not about how Manchester United perform after Ronaldo departure. Because anyway, even last season Manchester United without Ronaldo but Manchester United managed to finish in the top 4 although indeed, this season Manchester United experienced bad results again but Manchester United bad results this season were not because of the loss of Ronaldo. But ya, at least Ronaldo can still play well at Al Nassr and I think it is also certainly a good result for Ronaldo as well as the Portuguese national team. Therefore, I think at this moment it is no longer appropriate if we still associate Manchester United and Ronaldo, because it has passed.
Sometimes, it is good to move on when you are not needed. Ten Hag was clearly against him and that is why he decided to leave, and his intention to go to Saudi Pro League is a good move because he have another dimension of football apart from all the time he spent in Europe.
His move to Saudi Pro league has improved the League audience and fans and also give other players confidence to move to the League without any tension.

- Snip-
In terms of the Epl title race I think Liverpool might be the favourite for the trophy, they usually try to beat all odds to get a win or a draw which shows their determination is beyond every other team. Last season was a difficult one for Liverpool but I think they are back while Arsenal and man City shouldn't be seen as the only title favourite. In comparison of the three, for me Arsenal has always been inconsistent every so they will probably do the same this season and drop more points especially during ending of the season while at that point Man City and Liverpool are more likely to be the title contenders
Did you think Liverpool’s team that was competing for title with Manchester City is the same with this current team?
Liverpool squad of this season is not good enough to be considered as favorites for Premier League title this season because they have almost the same squad last season but flopped; nevertheless, they will be a good competitor for both Arsenal and City, unlike last season where it was only Arsenal and City.
554  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: November 30, 2023, 04:08:54 PM
Union Berlin this season seem to be suffering a fate that I personally can't tell the exact root cause but then the obvious looks like an effect from the change of coach, they seem to be yet aquinted well enough with this coach and his style so most players are still finding it difficult to cope but then they have still got good quality.
This season is not favorable for Union Berlin at all in all competitions.
I can’t even tell what exactly transform the team from being one of the best teams in Bundesliga last season to one of the worst team based on performance this season.

They lost nine matches in Bundesliga so far this season and they won just two which is a very bad stat for them this season, and they couldn’t even make more effort in the Champions League to make it to either Europa League because as it stands now, they are at the bottom of group C and second to the last in the Bundesliga table.



Quote
Leverkusen on the other hand continually keeps the maintaining their spot at the top of the league table with their points difference been a bit more that it was from Bayern Munich who happens to be the most fierce contender this season, it's quite interesting that at this point Bayern Munich is yet to be at the top of the table, which indicates that there's possiblity there could be a change in the leagues dominance this season.
I am having more confidence on Bayern Leverkusen to win the Bundesliga title this season because they look more competent and serious than Bayern Munich and Dortmund.



555  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season on: November 30, 2023, 03:58:21 PM
Liverpool team is strong. And Liverpool have the strongest squad among Europa League teams. And this is why the Liverpool team is considered as the favorite for the Europa League title. But the main problem is that big teams like Liverpool or Barcelona have no interest in the Europa League title. Liverpool will be looking to dominate the Premier League first. And the Europa League title is their second priority. And we have already got the proof. Despite a fantastic performance in the Premier League, the Liverpool team lost against Toulouse in the Europa League match. Personally I don't think Liverpool are favorites for the Europa League title.
Yes, the EPL title is always Liverpool's main target, but becoming double winners by winning the Europa League will also be a priority for them, meaning Liverpool will not let this opportunity pass them by. I still believe that the Reds will always prioritize being the best in the Europa League and he remains a strong candidate to achieve that.
Liverpool will start considering Europ League as their top priority if they couldn’t win their next two Premeir League fixtures because Manchester City and Arsenal have consistency so far and are the strongest opponents to tackle Liverpool’s success in the Premier League this season; therefore, as a result of that, they will be very serious to see if they can be the top team and win the Europa League as their chance of winning Premier League is slim.

Galatasaray-Manchester United match witnessed an abundant match. After scoring 2 goals in 18 minutes, United couldn't prevent Ziyech's goal in the 29th minute and managed to close the first half 2-1 ahead. The away team started the second half in good shape and with a good tempo and managed to double the difference again to make it 3-1. Galatasaray didn't give up the game and started to score again. After scoring two goals from 3-1 down, Galatasaray at least managed to get a point from this game.
Manchester United wasted another golden opportunity for them to qualify ahead of Galatasaray and Copenhagen to the next round of the competition, they were leading with three goals which is enough for them to defend and get points in order to be secured before they ply Bayern in their last group stage match, but unfortunately, Onana’s mistake has caused them the match as they are still at the bottom of the table.

If Bayern win Copenhagen today, Galatasaray will be hoping to also defeat Copenhagen in their leg match so that they will have all the chances they need, or they might even play a draw against Copenhagen because they will be very sure that Manchester United will lose to Bayern in their last match.
557  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: November 29, 2023, 04:01:02 PM
Arsenal is fantastic. Arsenal is number one with 30 points, then Man City with 29 points and 3rd place - Liverpool and Aston Villa. Competition is huge, everyone chases first place and everyone is so near that we will have interesting matches in the near future.
Arsenal must not be lulled by their success in reaching the top of the standings, the competition is still long, there are still surprises that will occur as long as the competition is not over. Manchester City and Liverpool are Arsenal's strongest competitors in the fight for the EPL title, Aston Villa also appears extraordinary with the points they have achieved.
Arsenal have some chances to maintain their first position for some time if they can win their next coming matches before playing against tough teams again. Arsenal next two matches will be against Wolves and Luton town; if they can be able to win them both, they will keep their position and will give some gap to Manchester City because Manchester City will be playing Tottenham and Aston Villa in their next two matches and based on how Aston Villa and Tottenham are hungry for points now, I don’t think Manchester City can earn maximum points in the two matches.


Quote

Tottenham, which initially appeared superior, started to lackluster, they started to be inconsistent in the last three matches, which made them increasingly fall behind the top of the standings. The competition between Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool will continue until the competition is over, these three teams have shown their best performances this season and have good team quality.
I have doubts that Aston Villa can continue to maintain its performance, what happened to Tottenham could happen to Aston Villa.

Tottenham did not have squad depth, that’s why injury and red cards affected their performance, and as we see how lack of squad depth dealt with Arsenal last season; we can all conclude that they cannot go far unless they signed more players in January.

The title race competition this season is more tougher that it was last season, this time we have Liverpool joining Arsenal and Manchester City. Let’s also include Aston Villa and Tottenham because they are also trying this season.

I don't think this day will top the previous one. I say this as we had a lot of goals yesterday , we had comebacks , lots of penalties and overall great football.

For today , I have a feeling United won't manage to win and they will miss the Europa League chance as well because Galatasaray is a very strong team that knows how to speculate a team like United.
Yesterday’s Champions League matches were amazing, from Manchester City’s comeback to other amazing score lines, I think today’s matches will have similar results.

Manchester United on the other hand have a great match ahead of them, they need to win the match to qualify for either round of 16 or Europa League but if they lose the match they will definitely go home by finishing bottom of their group.

But with Manchester United’s last match performance, if Ten Hag put more effort to bring a best team for Manchester United to face Galatasaray, I am hoping that they will win the match.
559  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ⚽ Football Transfers Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: November 29, 2023, 03:30:21 PM

Man United  has a good player for attack who is Antonio Martial he has not just been able to meet up with the expectations of the club due to injuries since ten Hag was appointed head of the club affairs.
I don’t think Anthony Martial is an injury prone striker as you think, I just feel that Ten Hag is not willing to use him always that’s why he always use injury as excuse on his case always. Although I expected him to have left the club for a while now because he is not a good striker for a big team like Manchester United because when he went on loan, he perform very well.
Because of his inability to perform well for Manchester United, that’s why Manchester United sign Rasmus Hojlund to support the team.


Quote

There is also some excuse from Rashford fans saying  he has been poor from the death of his cousin.  Respect to the dead but Marcus Rashford had not be a good player for United this season.  Since his goal against Arsenal he has done nothing good and has nothing  to show.
The fans are given excuses to support his poor performance, but truth to be told, he is not in good form this season and he is a selfish player because he has shown his selfishness in the team since the arrival of Rasmus Hojlund because he is not given the striker enough support he need to score goals for Manchester United.

Is was actually shocking for everyone because since Liverpool was able to beat Toulouse on there first meeting with many goals, so I was actually thinking they will also do the same thing on this there last match with Toulouse but it was quite unfortunate that so many people lost there bet hoping that Liverpool will win Toulouse the way they did.
Many people placed bet on Liverpool to win, they lose money as a result of that choice which to me was not even the right bet option on that day. I also did not expect Liverpool to lose to Toulouse but I can not predict the match on Liverpool straight win, instead goals over 2.5 because I expect more goals in the match which actually happened at the end because the match ended 3-2 in favor of Toulouse.


Quote
So actually most times Liverpool plays like Chelsea and Manchester United because when you will think they will win that's when they will show you the opposite but although even with there losing to Toulouse they still maintain their first position on there table.
Liverpool is even better this season than last season, I will not compare their performance this season with Manchester United, and Chelsea’s performance in terms of consistency because they are doing better than them both in domestic league and in the European competitions.
