As I see the topic, I think say na something else naim I wan read not knowing say, this na just the same with other post about government and inflation. After I read everything I no even see good points about how we fit take join hand fight with this inflation, but rather you just scratch the surface come leave am like that. you of all person supposed know say this kind of idea na to write am as Comment instead of creating a new topic. Abeg make una try clean the board small from inflation talk, or just make one post standby to dey discuss about the inflation instead of the one wey everybody dey create em own topic to discuss one idea. E no good😔
Oga calm down atleast e still dey on point because as the country be now the matter tire everybody and na all these inflation dey affect dollar rate and even the price of commodity for the country. Although I know enough talk and discussion dey open about all these things for the forum but atleast e better pass all those nonsense wey newbie dem dey post for the forum. The only thing to save this country sef na to just sell the country or better still divide am sef because like this we no even get directions wey we dey go.

Do you have a habit of tracking your gambling progress?
I gamble mainly for entertainment. As I gamble for fun there is no need to track my gambling progress. If I used gambling as a means of making money and I was a professional gambler I would need to track my gambling progress. Professional gamblers who spend a lot of time gambling have a need for gambling progress tracking.
Yeah that's true because it's obviously those that gamble for professional means that would need to track their success and loses because you are probably using it as a business and thats why you need to keep record but I really don't like that because you might get loss and even frustrated because of the possible losses that you would have gotten from playing gambling but I don't know if there is a difference to those that take the habit as a professional though.
644  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The shocking rate of women interested in gambling. on: February 25, 2024, 09:18:41 PM
Well. Since you are talking about women who gamble in a modern context, then it makes come sense many of them resort to social media to become gambler influencers or share their sport analysis. One does not think too much about why women could easily be successful within the ecosystem of gambling, actually. Most of people involved in gambling are men, if the woman who is involved in gambling as a good presence and attitude, she could easily catch the attention of those men and make them become loyal follower of her social media accounts. Specially in this era when women have more freedom to participate in all kinds of activities, like gambling, sports, working in previously men dominant jobs, etc.
Though, for now most women who wish to become influencers opt for doing the usual and share makeup tips, recipes, for become Twitch gamers, I have not yet stumbled with any girl or woman who actively shared her experiences or advices for gamblers on the internet, who knows. They may be still less than the 5% of people who influence in this ecosystem.
True but seems many women are not dependent they work their money themselves and not depending on anyone for money, a woman might be gambling because she's working and making her own money without the assistance of anyone. Social media are were people share their analysis to others so they can gain more impressions, views, likes, followers, comments many intentions as well so when they are sharing their analysis on social media many of them get paid for doing so mostly when the predictions are sure and people are confirming it.
645  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling games that gives you an exciting experience on: February 25, 2024, 09:08:03 PM
Gambling has developed over time and this field has become more popular, especially after the development of many games and the ability of casinos to fulfill all players’ requirements, allowing us an exciting experience.
There is always a game or several games that we prefer over the rest and enjoy more for several factors, perhaps because we feel that we have more luck and a greater chance of winning, or because we understand the foundations of the game and how it works, or for other purposes.

Personally, I am new to gambling and I do not know much about games, and I prefer gambling on football matches with small amounts of money.

What is your favorite gambling game and what are the reasons that made you prefer it over the rest?
Exactly, this are common among many gamblers mostly the football farms, there are teams that's stronger than other teams and when we come across them we prefer to bet on them than others I believe you also have one. There's many games that's games that's exciting more like slots, sportsbetting, pokers and many more we only have to choose the ones we love among other games.
646  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: As a crypto investor, the less app you install the better. on: February 25, 2024, 09:00:52 PM
Avoid taking screenshot of your wallet seed phrase, somehow this can get to the hands of the wrong ones.


My final advice for all smartphone users is that the less apps you install on your phone the better, the less likely you are exposed to data leaking apps or malicious app, and don't use any app store to install apps, directly find their official website, that should direct you to the right apps on stores or direct download.

Do people still use crypto wallet that allows taking screenshot? I don't know for others but right from setting up a wallet, if I discover that it allows taking screenshot of keys phrases, I will instantly discard it without a second thought because it is a sign of weak security protocol from the developers. On the aspect of keyboard, I don't know what third party keyboards offer that phone built in keyboard doesn't offer which makes people to use them despite knowing the risk involved nowadays. I remember back then when I used third party keyboard but whenever I enter any site or app that requires typing of password or other sensitive information, my phone will automatically switch to phone built in keyboard. That's how things are supposed to be but I don't know what's wrong this days. Some of these security threats can be avoided by us using simple measures but we choose to overlooked it until it causes harm.
The more you use crypto wallets that allows screenshots the more chances you get your self scammed mostly when you install the wallets on your cellphones. Everyone's intentions are not the same, anyone can have access to your phone and screenshot your wallet others might see it and try to scam you on your absence. Many devices saves passwords  and logins detail, so advise one should always go to the password management section under settings to delete the wallet password.

Hi everyone, hope you are all well. I am totally new here. I came to know about this bitcoin world from one of my friends and he inspired me to come to this forum. Then I am interested to know more details from him. He told me that if I join here, the experts here will teach me everything. Looking for advice from the experts, how can I build my future with this Bitcoin?
Well I don't know why he showed you this community and didn't actually asked you what you really want, well if you want to acquire more knowledge about Bitcoin then this is the right community for that and for the fact this place is a community one needs to first go straight and check on the rules actually governing the place before being penalized for any action that may go against the rules of the forum so I advice you check around for the laws first and rules of the community before engaging in the different field this place has to offer.

Believe it or not crypto is helping a lot of people to make their life or future better.
There are so many people who are using crypto as another source of income, while other's are using it to hold their savings and earn more than they could get if they just let it sleep on their bank account.
Crypto has given us a chance to earn more than what we could and made it easier for every to start their investment journey.
I would like to narrow this down to Bitcoin in particular but I know there are other crypto that befits the praises too but its mostly Bitcoin because of its massive adoption and growth and that's what makes the general public benefits so much from it. From where am from Bitcoin has changed the life of so many people and it's still doing that till now but the only thing is that you should know and understand the basic and then you choose how you would like to make Bitcoin and crypto in general help you out.
649  Economy / Speculation / Re: Next Bitcoin Move - Price Prediction on: February 24, 2024, 09:31:52 PM
I hope that what you say will certainly come true, and it is true that there will be no more corrections, let alone down to $20K, even now the movement has reached $51K-K$52K. Indeed, hope that it will continue to move to reach $60K, especially supported by the influence of the. ETF approval which has accumulated a lot of bitcoin, also don't forget that the halving period is also near. All of this should encourage it to move up, although it seems like it is still slowly moving upwards. Keep buying and holding in order to achieve what you want.
Today Bitcoin almost reached $53K before being corrected again to $51K in the market which is also part of the two real effects you mentioned. I am still quite confident that the price reach of $60K could happen in the next month if this month there is still such a good increase in Bitcoin. Because this month there was no price correction that was too big, so it could be very possible for Bitcoin to get a further price increase if buyers can continue to increase before the halving occurs.

I don't know about other Bitcoin enthusiast but I think for myself Bitcoin can actually hit it's previous ATH before the year turns half and that's of there isn't any bad news ahead because with the looks of things everything seems to be moving very fine and well but no one can the next big thing that could possibly happen to Bitcoin and as we all have seen some even can really have a great toll on the price as the FTX saga did same thing to the market price.
650  Economy / Speculation / Re: Can Bitcoin Drop to Zero? on: February 24, 2024, 09:24:32 PM
~
And what's the different between theoritical and practical drop to zero for BTC?

I mean, sure, theoretically anything can happen. We could face a nuclear catastrophe, our sun could go supernova, or an asteroid could collide with Earth and wipe out all life.  Or, Bitcoin could just up and tank to nothing someday.  But realistically that is not happening anytime soon.  For BTC to completely crash, some wild stuff would have to go down.

Looking at all the possibility that could make this happen, it's vividly clear to say that the rate at which this will happen is too small and it's even impossible so then it's fine to be consciously fulfilled that Bitcoin is definitely not dropping to zero anytime soon. But I have a curious question though and it's what if the whole Bitcoin Blockchain was actually hacked with a virus that manipulate the whole set up of things of Bitcoin procession?.
651  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: The shocking rate of women interested in gambling. on: February 24, 2024, 09:17:44 PM
Yeah, women gamblers are increasing in number due to online casinos but I don't think they can even compete with the number of male gamblers. I don't think that even 1/4th of gamblers are women so I guess male gamblers will always be more in number because women aren't much interested in gambling as males and they really don't want to win and earn, they can easily take whatever they want by controlling their own husbands and boyfriends.
Even the sudden rush of women into the field is as of a result of the activeness of the female genders in different field and that includes also the gambling industry and besides the world is now too open that women are kept on the side bench on some particular events and that also includes gambling and I believe the social media and the evolving world aslo had a great impact on this  because their mentality can easily change when they see other female doing it and also the impact stories of how it is beneficial too can change their thoughts.
652  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A lot of gambling sites are scams ! on: February 24, 2024, 09:12:45 PM
Online betting has become the main concern for the majority of young people, as players flock to casinos forcefully to obtain the largest possible amount of money. There are those who invest thousands and millions of dollars, but there is a serious problem as the majority of sites provide facilities to ensure players’ participation and entice them with large sums of money. Then they steal every cent directly. There are sites that do not target young players, as their victims are those with large amounts of money. Other sites initially deal transparently and seek to gain the trust of the players until they obtain a large audience. Then they begin their hellish plans. So , the majority of gambling sites are unsafe and it's hard to trust them .

How can I choose the best betting site that provides me with a safe betting experience?
Does this site provide a high level of safety for its players?
I need help from those with experience in this field
We can't deny the fact that the gambling industry is filled with lots of casino that are actually trying to make it through the flourishing business and some of these casino are so eager that they are even scamming theme that we the gamblers don't know about and that's why I also stay very cautious when am gambling with a new and unrecognized casino although like you said some of them might even operate in the field of ponzi schemes by gathering the right amount of crowd and then the exist move marks the perfect conclusion to their plans.
653  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 5.00 CGPA or 5 BTC? on: February 23, 2024, 08:12:22 PM
If I had to choose, I'd probably go for the 5.00 CGPA. Education seems like the safer bet for long-term success.
Maybe you will have to ask me again. Education is good but not to be compared to 5 Bitcoin. You need to think well again before you think of the best option. Having a 5 CGPA does not guarantee you any success and you will have to strive after school to look for job so that you can fit in to the society. Investment is what make us rich, and to get knowledge we can always read books so that we can be informed. With such kind of amount, for someone that do not go into school the person will have enough funds to go to school and acquire such degree. You don't have to get 5.00 CGPA as a student.
Well  said mate, the greed doesn't guarantee you success and I think most of the successful people today didn't actually glamour when it comes to their grades in school and moreover the world today is filled with fucked up system that people are actually tied to, if am asked this particular question, I think the BTC would definitely be the easier choose to take because even with all the recession and hard economy five BTC guarantees you the comfort and I think the reason for people actually getting those grades is to eventually still work and earn same money so me having a lower grade with 5btc is still a win win situation 🤗🤗.
654  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Does Technical Analysis Really Work? on: February 23, 2024, 07:58:00 PM
Greed is one of the ways we can trade in the market and keep complaining that we are not making any profits from the market.
If we can at least take away greed from our trading journey, we might finally become a good trader if we know what we are doing and how to know go about it staying away from the spirit of greed that could make us to lose in the market.
We can always use technical analysis to analyze the market and try to make money for ourselves if we know what we are doing.
Technical analysis is important for traders to analyze the market but some people will trade and be losing in trading no matter the technical analysis and strategies they are using. Trading is not for everybody. If someone is losing in trading and trying ways to make money but seeing it not working and losing at long time, the person should quit trading is what that is best for the person. Trading is not easy as we think and the emotion we talk about is not easy to control at all. Thinking of trading can even be related to greed because traders prefer to look for money in short period of time like within some minutes or hours. Holding is better and holding means someone do not have greed like traders.
Greed is somehow related to the trader psychological balance so learning how to control your greed is one important factor that should be consider because I can say for sure that even the technical analytic traders still fall short of this greed problem because they fail to evaluate their actions when it comes to knowing when to stop trading. Trading is something that are seen by many as gambling including me myself but I sure do know that some persons have claims that you can actually learn thoroughly through different technically knowledge to actually have an advantage over this but I doubt that many people posses the knowledge.
655  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Depending on a single income now na suicide now on: February 23, 2024, 07:47:57 PM
Price of things in the market are so expensive and still minimum wage still remains the same. This is not the time one needs to depend on this difficult economy challenge,  it is best to create more avenue of making money to meet up in this hard time. It is not easy because things are very much expensive thst even people with much income are even struggling to live comfortably this season.
With the current rate of things in this country e no dey advisable sef to even say make you get only one job because you go get am hot as when the pressure starts coming. Nigeria as of now na war zone and na only people wey get extra means of earning nai go fit manage their self for the country and e go come bad pass say you dey also feed family join because buying foodstuffs na like garri and rice na people three to four months salary now.
656  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: Where are we heading to in this country. on: February 23, 2024, 07:36:10 PM
The problem of this country lies on all of us, from the government to the ordinary citizens even the military, most times we make life difficult and hard for ourselves, just look at what's happening, Dollar rate increased now Our local Garri has also increased, so what's the connection between Dollar rate and our Local garri, let's say the connecting link between them is transportation, but it's shouldn't be approximately double the previous price, at least you can put a little money on the previous price , not double the initial price. The same thing happened with nose mask, even when it was about the health of our country in general.
Oga what are you saying na, imagine you are selling something for 10naira and then dollar increase and they added price to everything dat is imported so you going to that same market to buy something and dem dey tell you say the price don increase and you know very well that when it comes to living and food commodity, everything is connected so you can't be spending excessively on stock on the market and even transportation and then still selling things you use money for buying and working for the actual same price.
657  Economy / Speculation / Re: DCA is the most important in investing. on: February 23, 2024, 07:25:46 PM
DCA is an important strategic investment pattern but that doesn't make it most important of all the investment strategies to holding bitcoin. I could buy a lump sum amount of bitcoin at ones and hold for very length of years and still make profit like another investor who chose to use DCA strategy. Mostly why people are advice to use DCA is because they can't afforto buy a large fraction or amount of bitcoin at ones due to their income strength and only through DCA could they be able to afford owning a good amount of bitcoin to get profit from it after a long time of holding. In all, work with that strategy that is convenient for you that's what I think is most important to know.
The rate of people using the DCA strategy has made it look as if without DCA someone can't actually HODL Bitcoin but like you said the reason for the use of DCA is because of the lack of funds to buy huge, well let's take Micheal saylor for example, he is a big whale when it comes to Bitcoin investment and I sure know that he buys Bitcoin in huge chunk and keeps it for the bull season to come.
658  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Start preparing for the next bear run. on: February 23, 2024, 07:21:25 PM
I have observed that the rate of posts on buying Bitcoin in this bull had increased greatly. I once read that people are always attracted to invest in Bitcoin when the price is going high. We see more people buying Bitcoin because of the fear of losing out. I know that we can buy bitcoin at any price we can afford but it seems these investors are more concerned about this year's bull run.

From my little experience with the Bitcoin Investment system, the best time to buy the coin if you are targeting to make a profit in the bull run is during the bear run. The price is cheaper and you can make a good profit within the four-year circle. At this period you don't need to rush to buy because of FOMO but you can comfortably buy at your own pace using the DCA or other strategy that suits you.

My advice is that as you are targeting to sell your coins and make a profit also start planning for accumulation. If you intend to use DCA, start putting things in place on how to set aside funds periodically to buy Bitcoin. It might not be bad to start planning how to get an alternative source of income to enable you to engage in your accumulation process seamlessly. Buying Bitcoin during the bear market should be more appealing than buying when the bull run is already around the corner.
The reason why most person neglect the bear season is because they are always on the edge on the particular amount that the price might reach before buying, there are scared of seeing their coins going down and down during the bear season and are much attracted to buying when the price is moving upwards but they actually forget the bear season is there for a particular reason which is as significant as the bull season itself if not even more important because without the bear season buying Bitcoin would be really expensive and the iconic use of it as investment will die off overnight.
659  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Who's winning more casinos or gamblers? on: February 23, 2024, 07:16:57 PM
It is like asking which is warmer, the sun or the ice at the North Pole. Of course casinos earn more, but for nuance we could say that it is not easy to set up a casino, otherwise everyone would do it, because it requires a large capital to start, and it is not easy to run because you can also go bankrupt. If you have the capital, you put the effort and you hire competent people you will have a cash cow but this is within the reach of few. What happens sometimes is that a big whale comes along and has a good run that makes you lower the bankroll you have, but in the long run a casino that is moderately well managed is very profitable.
I agree with you, if the casino was not profitable, how would it be able to operate and bear the obligation of bills and daily expenses. There is even an expression that sounds very funny: If you entered the casino, then you have already lost. Of course, this cannot be applied to all players, because of course there will be those who can win, but whether he can keep this winning and bring it to the same casino to lose is the main question.

I also remember that gambling income is constantly increasing from year to year, except for the coronavirus year. This means that more and more players are losing their money, so these statistics completely answer this question for us.
Sometimes it even amaze me to see that people actually ask these kinds of questions because the clarity to this is too vivid, if you are a gambler and you have a couple years of experience then you would definitely know that the number of people losing is wide against the few numbers making money.  Although I have heard of some people who actually can run a casino broke and even at that the casinos still find out their account and block them because they are using arbitrage system and I know of a close friend who even go to the extent of people creating accounts for him on this particular casino just to cheat the casino with his winning.
660  Economy / Economics / Re: Some persons lacks financial sensibilities on: February 22, 2024, 08:23:54 PM
Thanks to social media nowadays that are portraying people to become materialistic. Those videos that have been about giving their dates material things and gifting them money probably have influenced a lot of people not just yours and your friends but many, as in.

Celebration isn't just all about receiving or gifting but also about the time that you're spending together and having some good laughs.

People have forgotten about romantic dates and not just all about these material possessions. It is really true that chivalry is gone.
Thank you man, I totally agree with you because alot of person have forgotten the whole essence of these celebration because of the constant brainwash by the new trend of these generations about gifting and wasting money on material things. Over here in my country is even worst because you can't have a good relationship again without the lady completely blowing it off with material wants and demands. Social media is really doing things and it's probably the most influential place to be and most the whole society is falling to the syndrome and very soon the old habits of these celebration will be no more if not actually gone already.
