621  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Just a friendly Bitcoin friend reminder - High price = more scams on: March 20, 2024, 03:54:00 PM
I never click on any links and all my coins are stored in long-term cold storage, so I know they are out of reach, but many people have hot wallets and they might be a target.
As a notice, you have to know that these scammers are also individuals around us who may look normal during the day, but at night take up a second identity, or who look normal without a computer or a mobile phone from where they scam people. You have to be generally careful with people both online and offline. There was a story the other day shared by one of our forum members about how he saw a close family member trying to check his phone

Quote
At some point a cousin said to me that... Let me see your beautiful phone so I gave it to him, then I watched to see what he was doing in the phone. I found out he was trying to penetrate on my wallets but unlucky for him that they are all on passwords and at his notice that I am being observant, he began to point out those wallet Apps in my phone that... What App is this and this and this? What is it used for? And suspiciously, he was only after knowing what my wallets Apps are such as the Binance exchange, Ethereum and what I uses them for.

These scammers online are sometimes our close friends, family offline. If they have no remorse stealing from people online, that evil heart will grow colder and one day will have no remorse if he decides to steal from you.

Be as vigilant offline as you are online.

You're right. We don't only have to apply this carefulness in our bitcoin holding online or keeping our private keys secured on private modes, we also have to apply that physical conciousness of how we makes our devices reachable to people.
We should also be aware that people who know more better of you're the ones who'd plan more evil against you. It could act of jealousy or some kind of golddiggers who perches around on how to take an earn they never worked for. So don't get loosed and easily trusting even your relatives.

Don't even try underrating anyone looking stupid and illiterate to the evolutions of today's because desperate persons also do operates on disguise and can be patient and tolerance. Total careful in all ramifications is the watch ward to keeping your funds save.

Let's do away with the criticisms because funny enough, the forum actually permits to make us laugh, angry and also teach us through your post lines. But your post must be sensible and attractive enough to be argued about.
I found this one laugh and worth arguing. 😂
So to the rest of us, what do you think you'd have become if not for garri introduction? To know that garri is an national hot cake, imagine here it's being in a massive adoptions ana gaining great heights of values in increments of trading in the marketing industry without being hyped and advertised like the AltCoins does but gaining it's potential values in savings thekibesiof common citizens here in Nigeria by its massive recognitions and consumptions just as bitcoin does subjects gaining its potentials values on the volume of the demands and supplies.
Indeed garri is a foodie life saver us just as bitcoin is a shield against the global economy downwards for us.

Some of us are still loosed with their privacies
We talks about staying unrevealed and anonymous in our Bitcoin investments due to the risks involved within the public, so now what about a scenero to slightly identity a bitcoin investor unknoeingly to him maybe a closed friend or relative, do you've to get revealed to him with the mindsets of being in the same investment with the person?

This is something some of us here doesn't understand, they think because either this forum or the bitcoin industry as one community is brotherlyhood enough reasons to be associated in our social lives.

The secrecy in holding your coins and staying anonymous is an insightment that you've no brothers in the industry because what a Non-Bitcoin investor exhibits at your threats is equal to the task of what a Fellow-Bitcoin investor is capable of.

This crypto investment is like a jungle that has no brother but on your own. That's why it's advised not to reveal your wallet seed phrases to anyone but on a privacy note to yourself if you must have your funds on a safety guard.
Trust no one and not even he who introduced you to the industry.
Keep what gat to be secrets a secret.
I may Invest $100 today as a beginner to the notice of who brought me in to this bitcoin industrial investment system but must not let him know when I diversifies or when I am buying more to accumulate and holding my assets.
A lot of lost assets has remained untraceable and unexplainable due to over trusts with fellas.

You must remember that bitcoin investment is not a better investment for a cooperative financial affairs. Stay on your privacies.

Looks like you're live in a fucked up country, can't really say too much because even you can find a better job, the inflation will takes you earning. The best solution is if you have a skill that you can offer to other countries by working remotely or you're moving to other country that has better economy.

Don't hope your boss will increase your salary, most of them won't increase the employees' salary as big as the inflation rate.

You can say that again that I came from and living in a fucked country because there's no just point of arguements with it. Absolutely true. We're talking about how an average citizen are not living a standard live here instead they're struggling to survive. I'm probably one of them and you talking about how I can render skill service to other countries can be an advantageous wall for me but that's not easily obtainable.
It's usually easy to say than to do. Then I decided to get on to accumulating and holding my bitcoin assets as much as I can while I strives on diverses to attain incomes just so I'd be assured that I'm keeping my assets untouched for a long time while awaiting for the bull.
I neither not rely on salaries because responsibilities and the job tasks has always be growing while salaries remains them same or even preferably to be depreciating. I'm a grinder and a diverse hustler.

In a lawful society, the voice of the people counts by votes of decided persons to serve and lead them in governance while in a lawless or oppressive society where the masses rights are being manipulated, then abruptly their voices are ignored, they don't have influenced in the society and their votes during an election is being compromised and trashed.
So instead of votes counts during an election in such a lawless country, they autonomous and the strong hold political alley sits by and make their selections while ignoring the votes in an election.
All just so oligarchy government.

I wouldn't stand here to defend the welfares of the professors who ain't doing right financially because there are lot of people in the streets that their state of being too also matters so also there are graduates who graduated from the universities but could not bust of achieving any nature of earning through their academic certificates.
Instead of agitating for these old folk profs, I'd rather argue about why can't the government create job opportunities for the masses and to those who're skillful to engage on and earn better livings.
Talking about the professors are like when you try to make the riches richer while you yourself still remains poor because I don't think if live was so good for you that you'd prefer and comfortably sitted under the mango tree like a frustrated human without having a roof to get on to.

I believe this story of you happens in the underdeveloped countries which the professors have major roles to play in the governments but they either decides to go low, keep their mouths shuts, hands folded comfortably to say there's no problem, we'd take it anyhow the wave of the government pushes us to. Literally they're dump upstairs loosing their potentials and roles meant to play in advancing the wellbeing of the societies including their potential honouranary influences ought to play on how they could bring solutions for the government and how they can offer soluable opinions to the society at large.
So who's worthy of fighting for them? The youths with muscles or the illiterates or the poors in the streets?
Less I know, the professors from the underdeveloped countries has lost their rights for briberies from the political levels and so they've lost their values and influences in the society.
627  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Memecoin hype getting higher on: March 20, 2024, 08:02:19 AM
MemeCoins are unique potential coins which obtains its potentials by the volume of hyping and so it spreads around awareness of investors of which if the coins are over hyped it becomes a threat of mockery by Investors who are not influence able. It's quite yes agreed that MemeCoins has enriched lot of investors so also it has caused setbacks to lot of investors as well because it's not a reputable long term goal investment which any Investor with the lack of the MemeCoins market analysis would always end up losing their funds.
So I would say to whoever investing on the Memecoins to be watchful in the market, don't be so greedy to keep holding when you've made some profits and so, don't keep holding you MemeCoins with the believe you'd hit the ATH else you'd either not even securing your capital nor the little profits accumulated.
628  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Are the Altcoins Going to Dip in Short Term? on: March 20, 2024, 07:05:40 AM
Like you said that you've multiple of AltCoins being invested and had made appreciative out of them, I don't know the value of your profits right now either did I know the projects of AltCoins you invested on but all I can say is that the market is getting on setbacks probably investors is not being encouraged to buy and invest more on Bitcoin since the market cap for bitcoin is not going so interesting for Investors at the moment.

So if you feel your asset holding do still have you the value to count profits of it then sell off because probably the market would go lower than. Expected.
Imagine bitcoin in just last week that hitted over $72,000 is hovering within &60,000 - $61,000 today.
That's to say more setbacks awaits the market but it you know you're holding the potential and reputable AltCoins that may not be advisable to hold for a long time such as the MemeCoins then you can keep up holding while the market rises again but be aware that it's all about time.
Ask yourself what your what is the ability of your emotions to withstand the situations when it goes against your wills?

When life have thought you terrible and tough lessions, at your resurrection you'd be needed to stand gradually because your hasting to stand might become a mighty falling for you.
It's good to know that you ain't criticing this guy that choose 3 squares of meal with no pocket money and not working to earn money. It's untold about the guys situation, the country is hard and there are people who're willing to render service without being paid but just get feeds with foods. The guy could collapse at the venture of him resuming at the proposed job. This is not just about the price but about how to stay alive today, stay healthy and balance to face tomorrow. The economy is hard and a lot of citizens had depreciated from their incomes including in their physical way of life.

Even a #1,000,000 can't be compared to the guys life if lost while chasing the money but if he gets to rely on a continues tense of the offer to just keep eating without earning funds to save and plans for his future, then there goes his stupidity. Life now is being too hard to bear in the main time Op.
630  Economy / Economics / Impacts of your national economic and the fiats values to your bitcoin holding on: March 19, 2024, 12:58:47 PM
While our national and economy rate is differed, so also the value rate of our traditional currencies differs in values too.
So does it affect your Bitcoin holding? And does it also affects your bitcoin value tradiing rates?
To me and the other average citizens and investos from this side, it's very much negatively effective at the moment as we've been struggling to meet up financial challenges due to excessive cost of goods.
My economic system is very down and the value of my traditional currency is very low comparing to USD. This has caused me excuses not to accumulate more of bitcoins to my holdings than expected.
At this juncture, I'm being optimized to wider my sources of income just so I can let my bitcoin assets stay untouched while it grows in values as I continues to hodl.
This is really panicking and tormenting to temper with my holding but I'm stressing out with excessive economizations just to reach my goal of Investing in this bitcoin industry.

Meanwhile as the fact that my fiat in value is being depreciated to the USD, that's the more my increments to trade and exchange my bitcoin assets is also appreciated.
So on the other side, it's assumed that I'm earning my bitcoin investment in the USD rates which is very much valuable during a trading exchange of my bitcoin to my fiat. That is just where my confidence in investing in this crypto market lies.

Who's on this same circle with me? What similar or unique situation do you've to share with us?
631  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Don't Fall Victim on: March 19, 2024, 12:10:01 PM
This is one thing always common with during the bull run we always come across some promising projects that seems to be very good and when you invest you wouldn't know when the market will turned against you. That is why during bull market we don't expect to be jumping around coin because scammers can easily launched their coin during bull run and after they succeeded they dump the coin for those who invested at a new ATH.

Most questionable fact about these new launching AltCoins and the MemeCoins is that where have they been all these while? Why haven't they been on the market trends during the the market prices are been frowning by investors?
Besides this is not really that the so coins gains increment effects by depending bitcoin increases. They basically obtains their potentials by hyping so why don't they trend when the market was on the low values?

It's obvious to have this figured that some of these coins are projected to vanish with the investors funds and strategically, they understands that they'd be successful on their Meme projects in gaining investors attentions only when investors are being excited during the bitcoin surge of increments in values there in the market trends.
Let's always stay watchful and don't fail to share suspicious informations that would help us manage the lost of funds in our investments while we remain a community in this forum.

I won't encourage to disassociate yourself from him because to every lifestyle there's is always a lesson to learn from them, reason because without you experiencing those attitudes from him you won't know how to make and take the right decisions for yourself. People doesn't always make the right decision when everything seems to be okay all their decision are right and good for them untill they encounters difficulties making them to have a rethink of their life, people doesn't always take correction or learned from what happened to other people all less it happens to them before they would take corrections.

Honestly I don't see disassociating from him is the best move by the Op. Everyone makes mistakes yest but still obvious that ignorance is not an excuse but my message to the Op is that he should stay by him because sometimes you know who really cares for you during the times of trouble and those who could forgive you at when you've gone wrong and with the remorseful ability to adhere that you've done wrong and have decided to make your corrections.
Besides most of the persons who hadn't broken the from their visions today is as a caused to had learnt lessions from others experiences. So Op, if he can confide and leaning on you don't push him away.
Stay along with him and make him to understand that opportunities lost can no be recovered instead be are lucky to meet different opportunities so that he'd be careful and treasure with the others when it knocks at this door.

Hello Smiley

One day, a few years ago now, I had ~100 bitcoins on Old Usb Key.

I didn't remember having them, as I'd had them at the very beginning. This USB key was lying around in a drawer, as I imagine a lot of people have Smiley

I remembered that I had a Bitcoin wallet not long ago and I tried to find my USB key, without success.

This story makes me sad, because if I'd known, I'd have been more careful!

Moral: be careful with your stuff, even if it's old :p

Having $1,00 worth of Bitcoin in the past years and you never cared keeping it on track or having the though of having it at all? And just of recent it got to your attentions that you once had bitcoin with the keys stored somewhere you can't find it anymore? Oh damnit. How careless are you Op? I guess it should be the cause of the excited pumpkin the market that called on your attention towards it otherwise I don't think you'd still care about it.
You don't really have to be sad about it because it's assumed you've more than the lost because you only disregard what's not valuable to you so , it's a thing that the lost assets wasn't valuable to you otherwise you'd had been extremely careful about you. This is an assets in discuss about here and not just of $.

It's good to know that you've realized yourself and so doing insighting to be careful next time.
Let the experienced of those who had shared their ugly situations in the pasts serve as lessions to us all.
Don't feel depressed Op, you can always make it again at when you're determined to make a difference.

Poverty change people, I never thought as much until i came back from abroad.
I visited my old neighborhood while growing up to see some of my guys in the past, I observe that most of them have changed to something else, from their behavior to how they sees life, and to how bittered they are. Though we still get along well base on the kind of person I am, I don't even sees myself like the rich guy they take me for,  but I also feel their pain because life haven't been fair to them,  a caring and loving guy before is now always bittered, the best I can do, which I did was to introduce them to Bitcoin and cryptocurrency.
Poverty is a disease that changes people.

No offence mate. Those characters which your formal neighborhoods proved to you after your embarked from abroad was the same characters which you also portrayed before you left for abroad. This you just have to be aware of. But though I acknowledged your welcome ness with them because some persons in your position would take those of your old hoods for granted being hyped that they're not of the same class anymore.
But Op, jumping in to introducing them to bitcoin isn't advisable considering their lifestyles now on what they're capable of doing via illegal indulgences.
Just like you said, poverty could change thoughts of ones live so you're literally not sure of they're still the same harmless people you used to know in the past. So, you could stand to be in a risky position because by introducing them to bitcoin, it's believed that you too is a bitcoin Investors which automatically, you've become a threat because your bitcoin personality wouldn't only stay around those your brotherhood but would be extended to others which may think evil of you.

I don't know how much experiences you've attained from this bitcoin industry otherwise you should understand that bitcoin investment requires an alternate source of income so that investors can hold their coins without panicking on wanting to sell off due to being in needs of funds so solve their financial issues.
So if they could finally invest in the bitcoin as being introduced to them, how do you manage to encourage them with a continues holding until the time to make profits comes?

Youve really failed to put a lot in considerations Op.

While the market depends a lot on the people’s opinion of the coin,
Speculation is not the only thing that runs the market. If all coins ran through
hype, almost all of them would be dead by now. Yes, speculation can increase a
coin’s value but if it stopped there, it’s not gonna last long.

Investors need to see utility and actual value. There will be no speculation of increased
values if the coin is really worthless.

You're right. Not only speculations that runs the crypto markets especially the Alt and the Meme Coins. They mostly subjects to gain their momentum of increments by hyping but by when the coins are over hyped leads to their deads and dumps.

You know what's actually advised? For people to actually read and learn about this industry so they can find their own investments and make their own decisions instead of asking random strangers online.

Like the question in the thread entails, if you've some introduced to the crypto industry.
I don't believe you'd just ask the people to read up and make decisions for themselves on what crypto coin they should invest on. Isn't it expected to atleast let the interested person to be cleared personally with you own knowledge and bases on your experiences that this is how this Crypto coins potentials could be and this is how possible the other could be. Probably you make a recommendation based on the crypto coins advantage and then you can let the person decide on what Coin to embrace despite you've recommended one to him?

There are lot of agencies in control and manages the roles of floods. The national emergency management agency  known as (NEMA) is  a government institution that regulates the disasterous circumstances of floods.
There are also international flooding institutes which are EMO and the UNESCO flood management organizations, a program in response to floods occurances in an international relationship.

The rate concurring of floods this time around is a caused of lack of urban planning or ignorance of water threats. People don't make easy flows of water by the drainages anymore, they littered and blocked the water ways including fast approach of development in such that people now build structure towards water on forcefully chasing and redirecting the water to when the closer by damp has accumulated as much amount of water it can handle them the water overflows and finds its way to flow irresistibly nomatter what crosses its way to It makes the situation unbearable for those who dared it by occupying its axis.
So if we can keep our drainages clean and avoid the waterways and also create a more accomodating damp to consume more or the water during overflows then it would be marginal to be manageable. Hence the water disasterous pressures would wouldn't be so intensive but would be a calming situation.

Yes I understand the situation Op, the situation on ground pertaining the double folds of goods in this side of the country too is quite alarming and it's just like the citizens only come into existence to struggle to it and survive before death comes. Not even that these foods are so easy to be afforded neither is if proteinous or healthy for the body. They just get to put something in the mouth to fill the vacuums in their stomachs.
Meanwhile this is a resourceful and once a giant growing economy but the government politically corrupted the system making life a living hell for the poor while the riches feels the heavens on Earth.

Talking about the excessive cost of good and yet people still do buys them, this is a situation of no choice, so if you don't spent the money to get something to eat you'd die and your death will be unquestionable because the rate of death currently in town is caused by starvation and you'd be counted as one who lost his life in such a way.
So to stay alive you must prioritize your life support of foods which even your last card without the hope of next square of meal is necessary because you must eat, stay strong before you could go chasing for others.
There's no choice to buy at whatever structured cost of you cant manufactured by yourself.
Life's going too hard at this side of the world now and the government sits and do nothing. This would sometime become a global crisis because it smells like the global political governances are up to some selfish interests.
640  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Our government too are part of the Bitcoin Investors but they acts uninterested. on: March 18, 2024, 12:54:54 PM
Our political leaders who're fighting against cryptocurrencies are hypocritics.
Not this my nation Nigeria that the government is filled of looters and embezzlers that'd can be transparent and sincere to say they don't have their looted funds invested there in bitcoin but they're just here acting uninterested about the development of the digital currency and it's existences in our region while they're the big dog investors in this Local sector of this bitcoin investment industry.

A government that has always had their networths and asset's anonymous, how would the same set of people won't patronize and adopt such development that's basically on anonymity assets and funds holding which they can be untraceable?
Dear Nigerians I hope you all are thinking the same way with me?
If our leaders can be traced and investigated even to overseas level and finds out where they hid the public funds, is it there in bitcoin they wouldn't make their secret banking of their loots?

Aside having the citizens bitcoin or crypto assets holders on tracks, I don't think if there's any other reasons our government are craving for and why fighting the industry in an indirect sentimental manner?
If I can remember, there was a time our government asked Binance to give them the list of citizens that's enrolled in the platform basically those users using the platforms P2P for trading.
What exactly for if not placing monitorship on the bitcoin holders?

A country that doesn't think good for the public would always act an anti success and a resourceful vampires to what would benefit the public.
A country of nothing goes for nothing like Nigeria is a funny.
These cabals really wanted that little piece of stipulated cake as demanded to pay for the  registering of digital asset offeringplatform, registration of digital asset custodian, registration for digital asset exchange and the rest of its irrelevant count charges.
If not just for the money, what else?

These so anti Cryptos from our government are the real long term goal assets holders in this digital industry and they're not affected to whatever the outcome of this unstable situations with the crypto assets industry may become I nthe country because they'd always trade with their USD accounts and can still make their USD exchanges when they arrives home here in Nigeria.
That's exactly a clear view of how vampires operates. What an anti success of government.
