5901  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: So when are you buying?? on: May 27, 2019, 09:07:06 AM
You saw this potential coin last week. The price was rising, you made up your mind to buy later so you created a thread here with the subject "is it a good time to buy?". 3 days ago, you checked up on the coin again and it has increased by 20%, you were still doubting if its the right time to buy. Today the coin has increased by 50% of the initial price you saw and you are getting more confused. My friend take this from me, in crypto, it always now or never. Happy trading to you all!
I agree with you. Crypto is a fast paced industry and doesn't call for delays while taking decisions. It's either you're in or you're not. BTW, why will anyone come here and put up a thread before buying a particular coin they are interested in? Is the person counting on crowd mentality before taking any action? If anyone is into this I think it's wrong. You don't have to depend on random strangers you meet online to form your financial councilors.

I think this is a bigger problem that has been left unhandled even after a year it was observed and reported. There is now another thread opened about similar issue here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5147676.0

Theymos should see this as a necessity and act.

5904  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: How do you feel about businesses that stop accepting Bitcoin? on: May 26, 2019, 03:38:22 PM
Most businesses removed BTC payments either because only a very small percentage are using them, or because of the transaction speeds, or both. Which are very understandable reasons for removing BTC payments.
Or even for the exorbitant and unreasonable transaction fees in case the businesses have to do refund for a trade gone wrong. Miners fees is driving Bitcoin fans away and this is crazy.
5905  Other / Off-topic / Re: Time Wasting at Funerals: Why? on: May 26, 2019, 05:15:09 AM

Oh, thanks for attempting to send me merit.


Where i come from (Massachusetts U.S.A.) they no longer shovel the dirt onto the casket or watch it being lowered. I think because reality sets in that your loved one is no longer with you. They say the prayers and place flowers on the casket then leave.
Oh? Do they then not lower the casket at all? You mean they don't graves any more? I don't understand what you're trying to say.
5906  Other / Off-topic / Time Wasting at Funerals: Why? on: May 25, 2019, 05:46:01 PM
I don't understand the concept of mourners/bereaved family members being made to shovel sand into a grave before it is covered once a deceased is lowered into it.

What the heck is that?

Some say it is a reminder that man is from dust and will ever return to dust. Don't we all know that. Do we really need that kind of reminder? I guess not.

People already know all that, except kids and funerals aren't meant for kids. But then, man has always looked for ways to glamourise even the ugliest of opportunities at funerals.

Also, I am of the opinion that sermons and preachings at funerals are time wasting. Yes! It's unnecessary time wasting because no amount of preaching during funerals has ever converted anyone. People are just after the food and drinks. Nothing more!

What do you guys think?

The Pound is going to take a beating, it's not going to have a good time in the coming days as people are going to think that 'no deal' may actually happen.
The Pound has been on a steady decline since this month. It's around 1.2700 now after falling from 1.3170 earlier. It's really a May in May to remember.

Nigerians believe in proves, for them to give their attention, let give them proves of our payment(Cashout digital to fiat) myopically.
So true. I remember even my younger brother showing great doubt about the conversion of Bitcoin to fiat until I showed him the cash.

Sad  are you a christian? i envy your faith brotherly....keep it up.
Yes, I am. But that isn't why. It's just that gambling is against my fundamental principle to life. Don't you see church goers who indulge Baba Ijebu or the now famous Lotto. Dem plenty well well here for Imo State.

....Due to gambling the youths are becoming lazy and hungry for quick money which resulted to scamming others when they fall out of luck with betting.

 Grin my G no body wey e dey lazy 4 naija even in africa, dem just want us 2 stay intimidated by calling we d youth lazy ones but dat one na lie em be.
Becky, that's not true. There are truly several lazy youths in our dear Naija. Walk around your area in the morning and you will see several chatting away their lives unnecessarily, in unproductive arguments and needless discussions. And when you try to talk them into online business they ask you if the reward is instant. I once Introduced a guy from nairaland to this forum in 2017 after I read his post filled with his frustration about life and unemployment. He told us he was a graduate and sounded like he would commit suicide anytime soon. I got concerned and chatted him up. I guarded him on opening an account here. He was from Osun State but lived in Ibadan and had an aged mother who was looking up to him financially. He sworn he wasn't lazy and could survive any rask. I told him about Bitcoin and this forum. But after the registration here he scampered and that was it. I chatted him up after several days on telegram to know why he wasn't posting, and he started talking trash about how he didn't understand the comments others were making. I just blocked him.
5909  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Surprise from Coinpayments.net on: May 24, 2019, 03:54:41 PM
Why is the OP making his complaint from a fresh account? It's obvious this isn't the main account on this forum for someone who uses coinpayment services. Is your complaint actually legitimate?

Now that Theresa May has agreed to resign on June 7th as the Prime Minister of the Great Britain for falling to deliver Brexit after over two years of negotiations, what is next for her country?

Are we going to see a Boris take over?

Are we going to see an upsurge in the Pound Sterling (this is my major concern actually as a trader)?

What are your thoughts, folks?
5911  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ETH vs. BNB on: May 24, 2019, 01:04:20 PM
Which coin do you think would have a huge pace of growth in 2019?
This is a more realistic comparison between coins (at least not being compared with Bitcoin) but I think ETH will continue to rise more than BNB. The reason being of ETH's advantage of contract by other projects using the platform coupled with it being a payment option like BNB.


BNB's use is limited to Binance exchange and its DEX.
This isn't accurate. There are several other exchanges where BNB is traded. You can find that list here https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/binance-coin/#markets
5912  Other / Meta / Re: Let's finally remove Locked and Self Mod topics from the Marketplace on: May 24, 2019, 11:15:35 AM
I don’t like self moderated topics anywhere. They’re open to manipulation & dishonesty.

I know there are situations where it can be seen as a positive to have them but if it was up to me (which it clearly isn’t) I’d do away with them altogether.

Just a personal preference, don’t shoot the messenger Smiley
What positive are you talking about? That self moderated thread prevent spamming, right? Oh, please come on. If spam were the issue the posts could be deleted. But the evil about such threads is that they stiffen freedom of speech. I think this causes more harm than good.

You can explain to everyone why the both of you have same wallet address in kyc exercise that's a secret affair.
Nope, it isn't really a secret knowing someone else's ETH address as some people have theirs on their profiles.
5914  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Blender / http://bitblendervrfkzr.onion real or scam? on: May 23, 2019, 01:29:38 PM
Could anybody tell me if http://bitblendervrfkzr.onion is a real mixer site or is it just another scam?  I am assuming that since there is a a campaign going right now for that site, it is a legitimate site.


Yes, that's correct one. You can see it on their info website, link here https://bitblender.io/

Why you ask.
You and the OP don't have the same web address.  Am I the only one noticing it?

Also, I should think any site without the "S" on its url http isn't secured and looks phishing.
5915  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: African bitcointalk community hangout on: May 23, 2019, 12:17:52 PM
I think the greatest bane of Bitcoin in Nigeria is the MMM syndrome associated with it. A lot of Nigerians still see Bitcoin as another level of MMM. I came into cryptocurrency during the wake of that infamous MMM of 2016. In fact, it was my research of that MMM that drew me to Bitcoin through Google search. So, I think a lot of education and awareness has to come up to sensitize our fellow brethren about Bitcoin.

We all know that African's are in love with games(Soccer), if our local games store could have the possibility of adoption into their system to accept Bitcoin(cryptocurrency) then, we may be heading toward adoption becasue of the spirit of soccer that lives in us both young and small.  
I completely agree with you here on the sport thingy, especially getting Bitcoin posters into sports arena or inscribed on the jerseys. But I don't go with the gambling angle. I don't do gambling. Even here in this forum I don't join in any signature campaign that requires posts made in gambling section. I have missed a lot of opportunities on that here because it's against my principle. I don't condemn anyone who engages in gambling. It's their choice to make.


NB:
Am not yet be accepted into signature campaign sir, can i switch to your initiated campaign, please?, i love making fun with what i believe in.
Are you referring to the signature logo Brainboss is wearing? I don't think he will object to that. It's the African heritage. But if you're referring to avatar, you won't be able to wear it because of your rank limitation.
5916  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: DOGE coin time to buy ? on: May 23, 2019, 11:58:27 AM
hi guys
do u think its a good time to buy DOGE with 45 - 46 sat ?
i heard some news that DOGE devs thinking about adding it
to binance if that's happned im sure DOGE can fly again
what do u think about current price of DOGE its already raised to 80 sat
a few days ago so i think 45 sat is not a bad price to invest
What I really think is that Dogecoin isn't going to ever rise to $1. It's a shitcoins  and remember that it wasn't created to achieve anything apart from being a fun/joke coin. That's why the dev assigned a dog meme to it. So, even if you buy now it isn't going to be profitable. Peruse other investment and out your money there.

That's my 1cent advice.

It's a pity the campaign came to an abrupt end but it really isn't your fault. It was a well managed campaign by you while it lasted.

I am leaving you a +trust even though I know you don't need it (you got a sack load already)  Cheesy. I confirm receipt of payment. Thanks. I will gladly enrol in any of your future campaigns.
5918  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What are your unfashionable Bitcoin opinions? on: May 22, 2019, 06:47:53 PM
Mine are this simple -

One - Bitcoin won't get mass adoption because of the widespread global illiteracy level.
Two - Bitcoin's volatility will continue to scare away investors.
Three - Continuous split will continue to damage the reputation of the coin.
Four - Rogue Miners will continue to be the  bane of Bitcoin.
5919  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: About most likely an scam BTC mining on: May 22, 2019, 01:58:37 PM
I'm afraid you've been scammed and someone is trying to get even more from you.
Of course, this is the simple truth. The modus operandi of the scammers is even visible to the blind but I don't know why the OP fell for it. A company with a suspicious name is a sign. A company newly registered is a sign. A company promising you huge ROI is a sign. A company telling you it dies cloud mining is a sign. A company into Bitcoin doubling is a sign.

Could you please have a look www swift.com as well?

Because that site is gone.
Kindly disable link of scamming site next time to prevent others going there by mistakingly clicking the baits.
5920  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: bitcoin legal or not on: May 22, 2019, 11:44:55 AM
The legality or illegality of Bitcoin is very simple to decipher. To countries that find the use or mining of Bitcoin offensive and banned it, it's illegal but to countries which haven't made any incriminating statement banning Bitcoin it isn't illegal. Let's take my country for example, the government is playing dumb and acting like it doesn't know about the existence of Bitcoin after alerting the citizenry of the risk of investing in it in 2016 but didn't outlaw it. What that meant was that the citizens could invest and trade it but at their own risk. It isn't illegal with this. It's been three years since then and those in my country are reaping the dividends of Bitcoin.
