681  Economy / Speculation / Re: Is the halving already priced in? on: April 06, 2024, 09:19:29 PM
BTC has been "pumped" massively ever since the spot ETFs were approved in the US a few months ago. The rise has been exponential, making BTC reach a new ATH before the halving. This has never happened before in the history of crypto (AFAIK).

Considering that BTC is in a new ATH, I wonder if the halving is already priced in? If that's the case, then market prices will remain relatively the same post-halving. Don't you think?

Your input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Smiley
So many are already being skeptical about the price movement is now different from other years that Bitcoin actually waver around it's old ATH until after the halving before the new set ATH is achieved but for this year it's all different. But from my end although this is my first real involvement during a halving year so I think am still positive about the price moving or going up to atleast 100k after the halving is all over.

It is better to check and recheck the address that you are sending to someone before sending the address. It is better you check and recheck the address that you are sending coins to before sending the coin.

Bitcoin transactions are irreversible after 6 confirmations, once confirmed it's gone.
After 1 confirmation, it is gone. If the transaction does not support replace-by-fee, the coin has likely gone even when it is not yet confirmed. Even if the transaction support replaced-by-fee, it is possible that it might have been too late.
This is the part of the crypto system that some people actually find not cool but for me it's actually worth it because atleast it will teach you as a coin owner to be very careful when sending your coins to a particular user. The one time mistake I have done was not actually checking the minimum deposit for a particular exchange that I wanted to send some coins from my non custodial wallet to and that mistake cost me 15$ because the minimum deposit was the exchange was exactly 20$.
683  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you have a habit of tracking your gambling progress? on: April 05, 2024, 11:40:08 PM

Then there is one indicator that you can use for measurement - deposit/withdrawal. Because it does not matter if you win 100 times, when you can withdraw less than deposited. But what is the point of tracking such info? And this indicator turns to be useless for people who deposit to have fun. They pay for fun and they dont care if there is anything left on the balance by the end of a day. As for me, when deposit = spend, as well as lose = spend, such tracking makes no use. I dont measure my gambling as profitable or not, I measure it with I had enough fun or not yet.

for gamblers who don't care about such tracking of course it will not affect the gambler. but if there are gamblers who care about such tracking, I'm sure there will still be more in their accounts that they deposited than they withdrew.
there may be regret when they see these results, gamblers will think they should hold onto their assets rather than risk them. and the results must have made them happy.
but gamblers definitely can't be like that. most of them bet and then forget everything. it is not very important to look at the history of how many assets they have deposited or how much they have withdrawn.

Can you give an example in which case this information or such kind of tracking can be useful? Or maybe share your own experience. I have a simple measurement system of my gambling. If the balance is larger than I have deposited, then it was a productive and lucky gambling session. If it is lower than deposit, then I consider that I had fun for that money. Pretty simple. But all other statistics, for example, in which slot or game I win or lose more, % ratio of success, size of bets and etc. This is less important for me. I would gamble in a game that I enjoy most, then in a game that I win more.
For me I believe that gamblers that actually fix their thoughts on all these  things are probably the ones that fixated their mindset on making their Gambling habit as a kind of job and they check all these stats to follow up with their progress or loses that they have enquired but for an average gambler who just makes bet for fun I don't think all these things are actually necessary besides if you actually know your boundaries then it would be good not to be check these things not to get your self all tensed up.

My own opinion be say no be everybody go make am big financially. Even  success in life is relative and must not only be financially. There are other aspect to life. But like the OP said no need to envy and try to drag people down be happy for the success of others because in one way or another you get weytin the other person no get and wey the other person dey find, so no need to envy anybody all of us get different path for life wey we suppose accomplish, the problem these days na say everybody Don dey too desperate to make am financially and I no blame them but contentment will never go out of fashion.
That's very correct my brother, e no get how e wan be wey somebody no still dey look for wating you get, thats just the Beauty of it all. The universe was program to actually be like that so not all success is tied up to finance and you know what they say about happiness too, which is no amount of money can actually buy you that one true happiness that every man craves for and I know this because I have seen some financial bouyant men still complain about how restless they life is and sometimes envy the average man with little burden and peace of mind.
685  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Have you ever done something crazy to bet? on: April 05, 2024, 11:04:42 PM
Though many people have been involved in this kind of thing but one thing is sure those days you weren't in control of what you did considering your age and am very happy that you condemned the act, I have a friend those days that involve in the same act but his own has worsen now because he couldn't stop gambling, he graduated from middle school gambling to a pure addict, op you were lucky that you were able to get out of this, many addicted gamblers started just as you narrated it, gambling at a young age is very disastrous because at this age you are unable to control your actions, this may sound strange to many of us that weren't involve in this kind of stuff but I must tell you getting out of this behaviour isn't easy.
You are right that when any one place a bet which usually not happen that occur only for addiction or we may call it as a crazy bet. And it happened with me at several times. And maximum time I am closer though I made profit in fee bets. I had bet these bets as I had no control though I think I am not addicted on gambling.
If you are not an addict then you are good to go. But sometimes we can be in the motion of actually gambling and even forget ourselves and make a very stupid move that we might find regretful at the end sometimes. So many people actually bet crazy sometimes but that doesn't certify that they are addict, the sure thing to note is that you are well aware of the action and note to correction if possible even.

Patient is needed for your account to get restored most times you won't get immediate answer knowing that your account has gained no attention over here. Between, admin and mod might be very busy to respond to you so quickly as you have think it. Then I will encourage you to have another device where you will store your personal information and keep the device at home while going out to avoid completely losing access to you important information.
It's so sad to see this happening to another person too because not too long ago, a friend of mine complained to me that he has actually lost his password to his account too and he was actually thinking it was hacked or maybe the password has been changed but it all a mistake from him because he didn't save the password on any password saver app so as to get access to it when needed and the worse part of it all was that he also lost access to the email which is too bad and after seeing all this happen, I quickly had to learn from his error and rectify or lose end from my own account and anything that has to do with password accounts be it social or financial apps.
687  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: A mistake you would surely regret on: April 05, 2024, 10:31:26 PM
Should we say the bull movement is over yet or the party is about to get started, because what I can see is a mainstream price lump up and for now the correction is still very much ok for Bitcoin and 66k is way high price enough, although those that jump in when the price was above 72k have made a lot of lost since then, but the fact that Bitcoin is not for short term base makes it mandatory for them to wait and not be in a rush to exchange back there investment.

We hard Bitcoin ETF approval in 2024, and also Bitcoin halving Around the corner with it essential ability to push the price forward.
I can you tell you that with this little set back so many people that aren't fully acquainted with the market have started fearing that the bull is over and they have even started resulting to sell off their coins but if you are with the thought that Bitcoin isn't a short term investment then you would understand that the market is actually just warming up towards the major events that is up ahead. Past records show that the halving is actually a good time for Bitcoin investors because after it comes the big bull that pumps so high and I hope this time around still turns out the same.

689  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How many times all-in save your bankroll? on: April 05, 2024, 10:18:00 PM
I knew that most of us here experienced doing an all-in bet whenever when we are already down significantly amount of our bankroll and already get tired to slowly earn back your losses.

I’ve done this several times and I manage to save my bankroll to profit/breakeven greater than suffering a total loss. I usually use the craps or mines to do the all-in bet to have a potential profit greater than x2 while I have more lifeline for my bet rather than a straight bet with x2 multiplier.

What game is your favorite to do this and what’s your record so far if you can still track it?
I don't know how reliable this technique is but I sometimes only resort to this when I know am ready to actually lose everything or agreed that luck should play its course. Sometimes gambling can turn from having fun to stress consuming especially when the results you are hoping for isn't actually coming and this can make a gambler go all in despite knowing that it's involves him risking everything.
690  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Is investing in exchange tokens profitable? on: April 05, 2024, 10:05:08 PM
Investing in exchange project e better pass all those airdrops memecoins and shitcoins. BNB is very slow in movement and I think OKB is more faster than BNB. But if you like to invest, I will advise you to invest in OKB instead of BNB because since BNB is not accepting peer to peer again in the country di matter go fit affect you although people dey save coins there and transfer it o another exchanges and sell or trade am there but dat one now na extra cost for the person.
You can still be able to sell BNB on Binance and few other exchanges. So what should this do with P2P on Binance that was disable for Nigerians not to access? In marketcap, BNB is the fourth largest cryptocurrencies. But I will not advise anyone to go for those centralized coins because bitcoin is more decentralized.
So because they are centralize they are not advisable to buy? Well I think some of these centralize coins are worth buying even though they are centralize especially in a pump period like this. Binance is already big exchange and they are already alot of investors buying their BNB coins which has already given it such high market cap value but the only disadvantage is that if anything happens to the exchange your coins will also be greatly affected or even lost forever.
691  Local / Politics and society (Naija) / Re: Scammers won't mind kicking those who are already down on: April 04, 2024, 09:47:29 PM
this is the same situation as the person being scammed. the scammer's victim who asks for help recovering their Bitcoin still is targeted by more scammers pretending they could recover the BTC.

FTX victims are still the target for scammers. you really can tell this world is a dog-eat-dog world and you who have been scammed will need to learn the hardest way and be suspicious every time someone chats at you because damn sure something is not right when out of nowhere someone DMs you. when something is not right, you best believe kicking them right to their face is the right thing to do.
That's the world for you mate, humans are of different nature and they have the mind to do all sort of things even from collecting or cheating something which they know is already vulnerable. As I saw your reply e come make me remember one movie wey I watch this called the #THE BEE KEEPER. Dat film show your all these scammers are connected and can go to any extent to make their business seem like a good one where as there is an underground scheme going.
692  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Technology a lasting solution to unemployed youths on: April 04, 2024, 09:40:24 PM
Yeah, technology has taken over almost everything, for the youths to be in line with the recent happenings and information we need to embrace technology, if not for technology, most of us won't be part of Bitcoin investment and other benefits.
Technology has diversity many things and individual hope has been rekindled because of technology, just imagine a world without technology, for me it will be a disaster for all, many people not only the youths are employed today because of the existence of technology, though there are things we must depend on the government for, like electricity, good internet service and enabling environment which will enhance the functionality of the technology, with this we are good to go.
All this things were actually bound to happen and that's why its called evolution and na so we go continue dey advance dey go so tay some of things wey we dey see for TV go actually come to realization and the better thing be say all these development don really help people out well well and although the internet and technology aslo have their bad side oo but the better side plenty pass.
693  Other / Off-topic / Re: The challenges of protecting children from gambling on: April 04, 2024, 09:24:39 PM
Gambling is definitely not good for children, that is why there is age limitation in virtually all casinos. Unfortunately, children are becoming too smart and inquisitive, so I was just thinking about the possibilities of protecting children from getting involved in gambling. My worries was increased by the fact that there are physical casinos and betting shops(as they are called in my town) in many streets with big signboards. Children passes these places and some parents do stop by with their children to place a quick bet. Is there anything that can be done to protect children from gambling with reference to physical shops that they see everyday?

I have already written about this on several occasions. In my country, advertisements about casinos are everywhere, on the streets, on TV, on the radio, and on the internet... casinos are almost on every corner, and they are clearly visible. It's almost impossible to protect kids from this. My kids are young now, and they don't ask too many questions, but I am already thinking what will I say to them when the time comes... and for now, I don't have any clues. I guess I will wait for them to grow up and try to postpone these explanations as long as possible. When the right time comes I will try to explain all the positive & negative sides of gambling, I think it will be better for them to hear it from me than from someone else.





The world today is filled with technology and it has make everything so open and this also applies in the field of gambling and since it's a fast growing industry and aslo a lucrative one for the businessmen and that's why they are pushing it up everywhere and making it exposed to everyone and with this kind of level of exposure that the society has it is very difficult for anyone especially the children to not being influenced by this kind of exposure.

I just wanted you guys to shed some light on me about this specific topic that I created on the other forum recently so I will be having additional knowledge based on your personal experiences.  

Quote
Can you share your experiences using the Telegram app mates? What is the best   Telegram casinos based on your personal experiences? How is it compared to online casino platforms? Fair play being observed here than those in online gambling platforms?

I am actually new to the Telegram gambling and I just got the idea from google just recently and since I see cheaper crypto as an option of deposit I am gonna try it but of course before that I'll have to wait for your feedbacks. Since I value privacy I think Telegram is the best choice and place to gamble with our extra money, do you agree?

Well am not done playing on regular casino that I would now bring myself to partaking in telegram casino and besides with the name tag that it has gotten itself so many people would rather not partake in anything concerning deposit and withdrawals based on telegram because of the weight and tag on that platform related to scamming.

696  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Investment in gambling on: April 02, 2024, 10:58:13 PM
Usually rich people mostly participate in gambling for fun. Because they have no shortage of money, they love to gamble, but those gamblers who indulge in gambling because of the greed of money usually face more losses. So it is better not to choose gambling as a source of income, whenever you choose gambling as a source of income you will start losing again. Because you can't free yourself from thinking and being addicted to money, you are more likely to become addicted to gambling and lose.
Many of the rich gamblers doesn't really have to think of the money that they're going to lose. If they lose this day, they'll generate new money tomorrow and that's how they do it with their businesses or riches. The wrong call with many other gamblers is about thinking that gambling can be an investment which is partly correct and wrong. Investment in the sense that you have invested to the casino itself but you're not a gambler. The other one that's being thought is that you deposit with your money and you'll gamble it through the casino as a gambler. Not every deposit you do is gonna be called as an investment. It is far from being a real investment that will just grow overtime based on the asset and investment that you've chosen. The casinos have got their own investments as well that are being offered to their users but majority of the casinos today have limited their investment offers through their bankroll investing.
I don't really see how this matches up, so its possible for someone to actually give the casino money as part of investment without gambling there, I don't really get🤔🤔. For me what I feel is being related here is when gamblers have hope that the funds they are actually losing is being kept as investment until the day they win it back with the hopes of even winning bigger but truth be told that's wildly impossible but a small percentage of gamblers do actually get to win above that threshold of money lost but it very rare.

DCA is tested and trusted method of accumulating Bitcoins, so one can go for it without any doubts.
Definitely bro I dearly agree with you that DCA (Dollar Cost Averaging) is a "Trusted" and "Tested" strategy. You mentioned two words that are very good and perfect. The words are small, but the meaning is big. "Tested" and Trusted. DCA strategy is one of the greatest strategies for newbies and experienced players. Which prevents you from taking the biggest risk, i.e., volitility. Under the same strategy, you can save your assets from losing more by reducing volatility. 
 
DCA covers all aspects of an investment worries of not being able to buy big at once because thats the mentality for some person that actually rush into getting an investment in Bitcoin. But DCA is always there for low income investor that don't have the power of buying like a whale, the concept is that you start up small but can later end up being a whale.
700  Other / Off-topic / Re: How can we help beginners not to get addicted on: April 02, 2024, 08:43:06 PM
The reason why I'm not addicted to gambling is because even before I started to play gambling I already understand gambling and its addiction, and my understanding has helped me on how to follow up gambling. Sometimes I ask myself why do people get addicted to gambling, is it because they have no understanding or awareness about the addiction of gamble.

 I think majority of people who are addicted to gambling is because they do not understand gambling as beginners, the rules and the side effects of playing gambling excessively.

I think if gambling companies can help to giving beginners to understand gambling and addiction it will help and reduce the rate at which people get addicted o gambling, I mean good lesson for people to get understanding.  Or do gambling companies benefit from gamblers who are addicted, which the awareness of getting addicted can affect their business?.
Gambling companies are all aware of the dangers and struggles that some gamblers go through just because they are addicted and that's why they themselves put out all sort of campaigns and awareness to warn gamblers to really look into their gambling habits some of these companies even have options of self exclusion on your gambling account if your case is starting to get out of hand.
