I can not say companies in Nigeria are dawning to know about Bitcoin, but that this initiation can be the beginning of hotels and many other companies in Nigeria starting to get involved in bitcoins usage as reserves and as a form of payment methods. This hotel located in Lekki, in Lagos State will be the first of its kind to make a decision of moving towards accepting bitcoin as a form of payment and as the hotel's major reserve. George Residence, a frontline player in the hospitality sector, has announced its decision to adopt Bitcoin as its primary reserve as well as a form of payment.
George Residence is a luxury shortlet which came to the forefront of the Nigerian hospitality industry in 2020. Chief Executive Officer CEO, ‘Yanju George, made the announcement in a statement released to the media. Further, he disclosed that the decision to make Bitcoin their primary reserve asset is to hedge against fiat inflation.
‘‘We have allocated around 50% of our cash reserves to Bitcoin…We hope to increase that as time goes on,’’ he revealed. “Bitcoin is the currency of the future and it is only right that we are strongly positioned so we do not get left behind.
“Bitcoin permits our guests a faster and more secure way to enjoy the comfort we offer. Our residents desire simplicity, and we are excited to be able to offer that to them,” the CEO had stated. I am thinking this is just the beginning of hotels in Nigeria to beggining to accept Bitcoin as a form of payment, and as a reserved asset. |

It will take forever. Normally, it is a scam. But, this is likely a blatant lie from you, nobody scammed you, or you can show us your prove. Is this the reason you are looking for ways to scam on this forum? You earn $3000 monthly, but seeking for 0.01 btc 35 days loan. I think your are the fake Vitalik Buterin in this case that is willing and ready to scam, your account woke up recently on 4/23/2021. |

Probably I forgot which coin I had? If I have bch, but my account shows 0 balance on BCH wallet.
You need to make sure the seed phrase to the wallet is the exact seed phrase. Or, did you use another seed phrase? You need to find that out. It has been long you use that wallet, and likely you have the address, but you do not yet know where you store the seed phrase, that is the reason your balance is not appearing because you did not import the actual seed phrase but different one that gives you another private keys and addresses entirely. I will like not to be further much about this, just get the seed phrase, import it on Electron Cash, if zero (0) balance still appear, that is not your old wallet seed phrase to the address you pasted above. |

The Central banks will print and devalue currency like dollar or they make high taxes and taking out most of the money in circlelation.
If the reason is to evade taxes, I do not think that is a good reason. Don't you want to contribute to Nation's building and development. If the reason is to avoid money devaluation, I think that reason is good, especially in countries that their fiat is getting devalued increasingly. We have usdt and Bitcoins to Back Up.
What is the difference between dollar and USDT in term of money devaluation, USDT is pegged with US dollar. The best is to go for bitcoin, and studying about it is necessary, so you will be able to know the right time to invest, because not all time is good to invest in bitcoin, better to invest when the price dropped to certain level, studying about it will let you know the best time to choose. And soon we need Only paper usdt so we have stable coins cash bills also.
Nothing called paper USDT, USDT is completely a cryptocurrency, which means it is digitally available, not physically. |

Please I need help. I have made an transaction online using bitcoin, but the order cancelled and now my bitcoins are stuck. I've been using coinb.in the first time a while ago and was able to do it successfully. Now the private key is not letting me pass the same one I used last time. What can I do to get back my bitcoins?
You will need to know if the transaction is confirmed or not, if not confirmed, I do not know if you can double spend or cancel the unconfirmed bitcoin using coinb.in, but you can import your seed phrase on electrum to be able to cancel or double spend the transaction, provided if the transaction support replace-by-fee. If the transaction support replace-by-fee, either you cancel the transaction with high fee, or pump the fee with a higher fee, and see if truly the order is cancelled, but sending message to their customer care will be the next option, in which their support will be able to help you when the transaction is confirmed but maybe the order is still cancelled. But cancelling the transaction if not confirmed yet with high fee will send back the funds back into your wallet. If you are really confused about the state of your transaction, you can check blockchain explorer (like blockchair.com) to see if the transaction supports replace-by-fee and also if still stuck or confirmed. If it does not support replace-by-fee, I will advice you to just wait until it is confirmed. You can use https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator free acceleratator to accelerate the transaction if the fee used is not less than 10 sat/byte. You can paste the txid on this thread for help. If the order is canceled and the transaction is confirmed, you need to contact the merchant to refund you. Coinb.in can't help because you won't have access to the private key that belongs to the recipient.
OP says the transaction is stuck, which probably means the transaction is not confirmed yet, also the reason that would result to the cancellation of an order placed. |

You spend the last of the Bitcoins that were sent to the address about 2 years ago. Maybe blockchain wallet was showing you wrong as if you still had the 0.005 BTC due to syncing problems (because blockchain explorers rarely lie), or perhaps you saw the 0.005 BCH that's still there thinking it's BTC. The OP is confusing Bitcoin for Bitcoin cash, possibly because he has not accessed the wallet for a long time, he had zero (0) Bitcoin balance but 0.00547 BCH balance. So, he can forget and later thinking it is Bitcoin. Like I have explained above. |

You obviously do not understand what OP wants here. He is not talking about any signature or bounty program, so he doesn't need a special campaign manager.
It's about SEO promotion (OP correct me if I am wrong) of their website.
I am just getting it correctly now, thanks for pointing it out. Just a wise word for Bitcointalk members that want to apply, Bitcointalk password should not be used, a completely different password should be used. |

I am not using Blockchain.com wallet, but there is still a recommended way you can have access to your private key. But this will require you to know the address you have the fund before the hard fork occured (you can track the addresses on blockchain explorer). You will need to run https://iancoleman.io/bip39/ offline. Offline Usage You can use this tool without having to be online. In your browser, select file save-as, and save this page as a file. Double-click that file to open it in a browser on any offline computer. Alternatively, download the file from the latest GitHub release - https://github.com/iancoleman/bip39/releases/latest/The address on blockchain.com wallet are legacy addresses (addresses that start from 1). ProcedureAfter you have Iancoleman offline Input your seed phrase from blockchain.com wallet Note: If passphrase is added while generating the wallet (then it is required also) Then, scroll down, you will see Derivation path, it is BIP44 by default Scroll until you see the legacy addresses generated. Then, scroll front to see the addresses, public keys and the corresponding private keys. You can then get the private key you want. Likely the private key will be the first address. But, you can confirm any of the address to know if it has forked coins on blockchain explorer. But, it is more likely not beyond one of the first 20 addresses. |

That is exactly what I am doing, but my screen is completely different to what you have uploaded for me.
When I click "Manage" it does not give me any of the options which you show (I am using Windows on a PC, by the way).
It just takes me to another page with all of what I have described, namely:
Private Key Wallet [Default] More Options [which offers "Edit Name" or "Show xPub"]
Did you press on the 'private key wallet' to see if it will pop up the private key? I think seoincorporation is using mobile phone to access it. |

My public address was 1KkPpMarp1H9xd4XsxNpeNX1BbRv8eaVk3, it had .005 something balance. But I accidentally changed the the previous one with the new one. And I lost the balance also, when I search the address in blockchain explorer than it shows balance 0 and also my current balance is 0.
The last bitcoin transaction related to this above address was on 8th 07, 2019. And, the final balance you are having is zero (0), you do not have Bitcoin on that addre anymoress. But, possibly you are confusing it with Bitcoin Cash, you still have 0.00547629 BCH ($4.36 with the current Bitcoin Cash price at $796), so far you have been able to make transaction using the wallet, you should be to spend the Bitcoin Cash using your (the same) Blockchain.com wallet. So, if the amount seen on your wallet is approximately $4.36, it is the amount of Bitcoin Cash you have on it, not Bitcoin (and you expecting the amount to be more because of high Bitcoin price), you have not bitcoin. Your bitcoin transactions and final balance on blockchain explorer: https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/1KkPpMarp1H9xd4XsxNpeNX1BbRv8eaVk3?page=1Your bitcoin cash transactions and final balance on blockchain explorer: https://www.blockchain.com/bch/address/1KkPpMarp1H9xd4XsxNpeNX1BbRv8eaVk3Or, you still insist your balance is 0? Or, lower than what you are expecting? |

If I get you rightly, you have an address on blockchain.com wallet, like the address has changed now to another? And you want to know the former address. Or you want to recover back you blockchain.com's account? |

Your wallet is like your bank account but the only difference is you are the only one is controlling it as long as you have memorize/saved your private key.
Why memorizing the private key? Privaye key consists of characters that are long and not memorizable, even the so called seed phrase that consists of only words should not be memorized. The best is to do backup offline and have like two other copies in case. About seed phrase, the brain can be so deceiving, what you thin you have known for weeks can still yet be forgotten without remembering the whole seed words again. So, memorizing privaye key or seed phrase should be completely discourage and not advisable or recommendable. |

how high is it right now?  You can just use mempool observing sites to know the fee that can get your transaction into next block, although know that feerate can be lower during weekends. Lists of recommended mempool observers are: https://jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/#BTC,24h,weighthttps://mempool.space/https://mempool.observer/Know that the feerate is not constant at all, they do fluctuates every time in seconds, and is in accordance to the numbers of transactions in queue on mempool. If the mempool is less congested, the feerate will be reducing, but if getting congested it will be increasing. |

Do not get you exactly. Why the need for chatting on trading platforms?
But in case of p2p exchanges, if you are making an exchange or a trade with someone, the message chat will be opened, where both if you can communicate directly with each other.

Asking for help about this transaction 136e71b71d964015ad48f1fa73ef75efa63c619ab6e2621de5ae3bb59205e771
The transaction not yet confirmed, but it was successfully included among the transactions ViaBTC will include in the next block when I tried it. Your transaction should be included in the block mined next by ViaBTC, and your transaction will be confirmed. 
Accelerated by Lucius using ViaBTC free acceleratator. |

I use Atomic Wallet for almost 6 months and I do not have any problem so far.
Atomic wallet is close source wallet, also not supporting segwit. During Bitcoin transaction, do you know you will use lower fee for segwit transactions? I can not use a wallet that do not supports segwit. but I also installed Trust wallet on my other phone and so far, it works good for me.
Why are people just like close source wallet, I can not recommend anyone to use close source wallet. I will prefer wallet that its source code is open source, so I will be able to know what codes my wallet is using. |

First of all, I will like you to know that the feerate paid this time around is usually high. But, either miners that are not mining now will later start to continue to mine, or the mining difficulty will be adjusted which is not even up to 2 weeks from now. Which short term solutions are developers working on to tackle high fees (besides the Lightning Network)?
Did you actually know that bitcoin feerate has been reduced to almost or slightly more than 50% if compared to the past. 1. The first reduction was when uncompressed legacy address was changed to uncompressed through data reduction. But some people can still even be using uncompressed paper wallet, and high fee is required during sweeping or transaction. 2. Fee was reduced when nested segwit was implemented. 3. More fee was reduced when segwit was implemented. 4. Even the upcoming taproot will significantly reduce multisig fee. If those can happened in the past, there will be more solutions coming to reduce the on-chain fee. But some developers are making it worse, that is why you will see many wallet not supporting segwit. |

This makes me wonder, which of the aforementioned assets are better as a long term store of value?
Bitcoin is young and more volatile, but I prefer it to gold, because it has limited supply (only 21 million) unlike gold that gold miners will continue to mine. But, it is good to be patient, and learn how and when the exact time to invested, when price is low. Is it Bitcoin, Gold, or both?
It is good to diversify, both of them are good. Although, I prefer bitcoin over gold. Why do you think such asset is better?
People will become more literate, gold supply is finite, unlike bitcoin supply. The world are going more digital. Do you think at some point in the future Bitcoin will replace Gold?
That is certain that bitcoin will replace gold, it can take long but the day is coming. |

Viabtc free accelerator can accelerate transaction fee with 0.0001 btc or above.
No. The minimum amount that will be paid is not in actual fee (sat) as bitcoin price is fluctuating, but in feerate (sat/byte). ViaBTC can accelerate transactions that has feerate of 0.0001BTC/KB which is also the same as 10 sat/byte. <...>
The mempool is very congested, and the feerate is back around 250 sat/vbyte. Just try to wait until the mempool become decongested. |
