624  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you have this practice of gambling during one's wake on: February 27, 2024, 10:28:01 AM
Not familiar with this, never heard of it before I guess it's my first time and most people from Nigeria too.

here in my country there other cultural activities that happens during the wake but gambling is not one of them. although its peculiar to your country that is why culture is dynamic, but for my country we have different ethnic groups and different activities are conducted in each ethic. I can remember something I noticed while I was very much younger, where after about 4 days after the deceased has been buried the family will gather of a night and kinda stay up all night but I don't know what it is that we really do but I know we just stay discussing and somehow mere till next day.
625  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Don't relax using the exchange on: February 27, 2024, 10:09:41 AM
it's good advise for people like us, I have a Blue wallet that I have kept to hold in there than leave my coin on any of the exchange especially binance that has publicly agreed to work with Nigerian government, and that I see as a threat to Nigerians in the crypto space. if further pressure is being put to reduce exchange rate in crypto I guess binance might be shutting us out so it never to lean your back on them.

I saw this post by a Nigerian who was celebrating his holding profit and he had a 0.1 BTC or ETH on an exchange, binance in particular. I almost freak out, even with lots of advise here in the forum someone is still not keeping up with the correction, I just hope they don't loss what they struggled for.
626  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Isn't trading almost like gambling? on: February 27, 2024, 08:46:01 AM
Well we here this almost every day that trading is more like gambling, which is most likely to be short term trading. why it's refered to as likely trading is because of the issues of loses that even expert in analysis of the market still lose money while trading such as gamblers who are even experienced over the years of gambling yet loss because the market isn't predictable as games aren't predictable because it solely a game of luck.

in making this kind of reference one should be aware that there are some traders who are likely to loss less because of the mastering skills they have but although they loss, in the context of gambling one is even running a more risky game because you could get addicted which makes gambling more risky.

Of course growing a thinker skin is a great advise for newbies like us. I have been in the same level with you for some months ago when I make contribution in discussions it been appreciated because before i dive into any discussion I must be well aquatinted with the knowledge I'm about to share and it helps me make research and the result for that was merit.

if your being criticized take it as a challenge and build yourself. I was so unhappy when I got first criticism here but I took it upon myself to change the narrative, with the links that where shared with me I put in some effort to read them hence I became little bit knowledgeable you too can do same.
628  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Who plays bigger role in crypto adoption: General public or government ? on: February 27, 2024, 08:08:08 AM
Both the government and individuals play big roles in cryptocurrency or Bitcoin particularly, we can not say one plays more than the other because of the cases we have seen concerning Bitcoin adoption. I could say the government and the individuals play their roles Viz vice.

As said above by some senior colleagues citizens could decide to adopt bitcoin or use cryptocurrencies as payment method but the government could jeopardize that decision with regulations, although there are cases where the people still find a way to hold cryptocurrencies and use them but initial it could be prohibited. so too government could decide to make Bitcoin legal tender but it has to be the choice of the masses whether to adopt or not.

Well to you op it calls for celebration but in my perspective we have a long way to go before the next bear market will come and in this times Bitcoin will be on appreciation lane so you should still be accumulating.

I wouldn't judge any of your actions, yes it's the fact that you left a 0.1 BTC in an exchange whereas you should be aware that keeping an amount that is equivalent to a 500 dollar and above is very much discouraged. with such a profit or about you should have a hardware wallet or create a cold wallet storage as soon as it hits a good profit.

631  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 5G positive effects on Bitcoin on: February 27, 2024, 01:18:15 AM
Although this is Bitcoin related but it's not solely a technical discussion, I believe it fits some where else not here particularly.

The attributes of the 5G network which you have mentioned above is quiet not true statements in regards to how it will help the Bitcoin network. although it will increase the user experience of global internet users but it's not a ground for the attributes you mention.

You can read of Bitcoin network congestion [1] how it work, what causes them etc. to get aquatinted with the knowledge hence Bitcoin network connection is caused by factors like high rate of transactions (increase in Bitcoin adoption), cost of transaction fee, lastly size of transaction, each transaction on bitcoin network has a limit of 1 MB and when transactions are higher 1mb it takes more space in the block thereby causing reduction in transaction process which may lead to increase in tx fee.

632  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling games that gives you an exciting experience on: February 26, 2024, 09:33:58 PM
On a personal level based on how effective and effective gambling has been over time I'm getting to prefer crash game and sportbooking, recently I placed a bet on basketball games I noticed the chance of winning was very high that I was convinced to stake more but I don't but definitely I won the game.
do crash games really giving wins? because upon my observation Crash Games seems to be manipulated because you are winning big then the crash happens
even in the first level.
Yes off course, crash game gives winning. the truth we all have different perception about a particular thing, which I can interpret as one man's food is another man's poison. it could favouring me but giving others bad time, it's a subjective reasoning. it maybe manipulated in from your perspective but not really for me.  

Quote
The user interface that most casinos have provided have made it very easy to access this games and as a result I'm getting to prefer crash game over all other games because I enjoy it most, and I don't really feel anything like sadness when I loss, so whatever game that can provide that I think is most preferable.
respected your decision and views about gambling but for me ? it is Roulette and Black jack that gives me entertainment and so exciting once I beat the the banker multiple times continuously .
Well, its your choice of game and crash  is my kind of game. let's say I was influenced by friends to like this crash game. in my hostel almost all the boys play crash during free times and this changed our perspective of crash game we some how don't feel it as gambling but game only.
633  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Re: UniSat Wallet - User Experiences on: February 26, 2024, 09:04:35 PM
For me I haven't tried the wallet so I don't have any experience on it yet but I might try since you've brought it to my notice.

basically I don't really like anything that has to do with ordinals protocol and from my quick search I can say it was primarily developed for holding NFTs and tokens, so bitcoin is just an additional feature that might bring attention. although its open source which gives it a little ground for interest yet I wouldn't like to use it because of its rating which is 2 star wallet, that means it still have some outstanding issues that is reducing the rating.

635  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Ethereum price approaches $3k on: February 25, 2024, 03:01:45 PM
In the wild world of crypto, news holds sway over market movements, especially for specific coins. Ethereum's climb to $3k seems tied to rumors of a spot ETF approval by May. We've seen this script before with Bitcoin – ETF anticipation boosting prices, then a correction. Ethereum might follow suit: a surge to $3k fueled by ETF hype, then a reality check.
I absolutely agree with you, it could be as a result of all the hype oriented by the ETF but after some time I believe it's going  to make a price correction as you said.
636  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: What if the naira currency takes its shape again on: February 25, 2024, 02:56:45 PM
My question to all what if this naira currency takes it shape today what is ur fate what will you say you have benefited from when it was high, cause I still feel that lots of people don't have any savings at all so what will be the difference between you that is earning in dollar and has no savings and a person earning in naira and still has no savings.
This question requires a rational thinking. Yeah if dollar because equally with naira which I see no possibility but if it plays out to be so then people will begin to earn in naira.

One thing you most remember is that Nigerians like to make use of every opportunity so if naira get equivalent to dollar then all the naira earning means will be maximize although i believe this to be an imagination because with that I'm seeing even with all the measures to bring naira up it's not going to work yet till the government that is call this suffering a baby step gives up.
637  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why People Have Different Perception Of Gambling Operators on: February 25, 2024, 02:46:42 PM
it's just a subject reasoning of some people that one is better than the other whereas they are same but in a different environment. judging from the look of things people could be very sentimental for some reason that the cockpit arena could be filled with lots of gangsters and all manner of crime scene but for the lotto environment you could see it a civil place where people would come and go peacefully in a subject sense but in reality the same people who go to the cockpit arena are still the people in the lottos.

One thing about the sentiment is it's very much biased factored around wife's/partners.
638  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The future of cryptocurrency. on: February 25, 2024, 02:23:18 PM
There are so many crypto projects we need to hold that will give us what we need in the market and the kind of profits we want to be making if we know how to search and dyor about good projects in the market we can buy.
The market is going more bullish and for those that have good projects they are holding, they will benefit more in the market if they can keep holding without selling. Sometimes we might feel the pressure smto sell since we have small profits, don't sell and hold.
I partially agree with you do some extent, the crypto space has become so big that everyday projects are been created all promising a good future. with this finding the right project to invest on is likely very difficult to get even with our own researches.

At this point, we can only gamble on any of the crypto project that we fill is going to attain a good height but been definite with our research is quite impossible.

I also solidly disagree with the holding of new projects, I don't like to gamble or probably take risk but there are some that are absolutely not worth it, like holding a shitcoin it's more like increasing my stress holding potential coin battling with wallets that are compatible with all her shit coins will increase my stress.
639  Other / Off-topic / Re: How to create a beautiful QR code for address, avatar, etc... on: February 25, 2024, 01:34:30 PM
If you have a question, ask me and I'll try to help.
My question is does this have anything to do with Bitcoin wallet address or it's just specifically for avatars and signature campaign related stuff?

Because if this have to do with your wallet address then it's absolutely a wrong move. Uploading your address to an unknown website to generate a quick response code is exposing your wallet address to virus and malicious wallet address changers and it can be manipulated and lead to lost of funds.
Even though we have to verify the wallet address before sending it's still very vulnerable for hackers to change the address.

but if this solely for websites, avatar etc then I don't have problem with the idea.

just a friendly question!
640  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: How do you make money on transactions with a node? on: February 25, 2024, 12:48:14 PM
Running a full node (Bitcoin Node) is only a way of making yourself and transactions more private, it's also an indirect way of helping the Bitcoin network to become more decentralized as mentioned above. Bitcoin is another kind of money, just like the normal fiat you don't earn it except you get a real job and get paid, so Bitcoin too. you have to work for your Bitcoin hence running a node is not working for anyone but yourself.

Pooya87 has given a perfect answer for the lightning node thing.


I tried installing the Electrum wallet, but it never earned a profit.
How have you been on Bitcointalk since 2017?

It's really worth asking... Or should I still refer OP to learnmeabitcoin to understand how Bitcoin works.
