If you provided the source link, we could have read more about this, but I knew that the USA SEC has been dragging Binance for violating some security laws for a long time now, and this is also affecting the crypto market movement because if Binance falls today just as FTX did, the market will be bitterly affected and many people will lose so much money to crypto.
Decentralization is the only solution to all these allegations and threats because, in a decentralized system, no one will threaten to leave the exchange because they know that they hold a big share of it.

Nigerian court don convict one man wey pretend to be a peer-to-peer (p2p) cryptocurrency trader wit social media platform him create using a female name to de scam unsuspecting public pipul wey wan try gain interest for crypto wey we dey normally call dem newbies.
This is a very good action taking by the court because such people are the bad eggs in the crypto industry, they are always looking for ways to scam innocents individual that are willing to invest in crypto. Because of this type that is why Nigerian government will not want to grant or legalize bitcoin or crypto properly because they will be claiming that it will be use to scam innocent individual that did not know anything about crypto scam. Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) nah catch de go court com nack am charge borderin on cybercrime and de man agree say him guilty as charged. According to the scamma him tok say him don achieve wella from dis illegal buzinex for monie wey reach $2000 from him victims. Na so court com sentence am to a fine of #200,000.00 (two hundred thousand naira). SourceThem for charge them more than this so that others go learn lesson from their actions. Because comparing the charge with the amount he confessed that he scammed, the charge is just like just %10 of what he scammed which I believe he can never say the exact amount he stole from people, and if they keep charging them such small amount, they can keep doing that since the fine charge is not much. To newbies as u don enta dis crypto space mk unah shine unah eyes no allow or agree to anybodi com de tell you or advise you to join any platform say nah buzinex investment lik dat, say e dey pay well, com de show you nonsense evidence how e don pay am - oyinbo man call dis type of scam as Pig-Butchering-Scam.
De meanin of dat gramma be say, scamma go first tok to u lik beta person com create cordial relationship wit u about some buzinex com de tune you to invest say you go catch out, and dem fit allow you catch out ur first monie you put just to mk you feel comfortable so dat you fit invest bigger amount for de next one, nah dat time dem go scam you com jakpa wit ur investment monie. So mk we dey careful as we de use crypto mk we no com fall scam anyhow.
Thank you for the advise @Lida93, because our newbies are mostly people that are falling victim of this type of scam because most of us wey de here go don experience this kind thing before. In general, make una no trust anybody for crypto because anybody can scamm if they see opportunity to do that, therefore, for newbies here, make una de carful and trade with either exchanges p2p or look for any reputable member here in the forum to trade with. |

It's like this is my first time of noticing this section being active, because I have yet seen such a statistics of activities being posted anywhere in this Bitcointalk forum except on this Naija board.
The local board statistics is usually been posted in this thread by Igebotz every month and in the meta board where the activities and activeness of local boards are been posted. Not only Nigeria (Naija) board, other local boards too do post their monthly overview of their local boards in the meta section of the forum in this thread.It goes to show the dedication to do better coming from every participant here and the fact that there's seriousness on the Naija side to actualize the use and adoption of BTC in the country.
I will do better to be ranked among the top pioneers from now onwards.
Naija local board is one of the most active local board in the forum right now, and we are having any new users that are coming here to mingle and relate with our fellow Nigerians which is a good development. |

What helped me was attempting to quote any member's response, which I found both interesting and difficult. Then I began to examine how the response was formed, I kept examining people's posts, and I began to get the function of the majority of the textual instruments given.
Because it is difficult to learn everything at once, this is the greatest technique to learn quickly. We are continually learning. When I first started learning in this forum, looking at how other members' comments were organized helped me a lot. When I read a comment or post and want to learn how it was done, I usually use the quote bottom to see what functions he used to structure the reply or post in such a way. I recommend that you preview your post before submitting it so that you can see how it will look after you publish it. |

My country is not listed in the list you provided, and I was able to see the copy trading tab in the future section of my Binance app. Maybe you will consider updating your Binance application, or if you are operating on the Binance Lite section of the Binance app, you should consider switching to Binance Pro; that's where I found the copy trading tab. |

How is it reasonable for a seller to ask for a number for communication outside the platform, no matter how trusted they are, if Binance itself doesn't allow it.
Some of the merchants are asking for the number to reach out to you if they have made their payment and you are yet to release their crypto for them, but I think they are just doing it because it is against the rule to have any discussion outside the Binance exchange, where as some will chat you and let you know that they will be available for your service even outside the exchange, and those once are the ones that can easily scam you if you trust them. The best thing to do is to make sure you select a merchant who does not demand a phone number before trading. |

Surely you can also start trading with the money if you have invested, although you have a dream of buying a bike I prefer you to do the trading with this amount even if the bitcoin might get doubled. I don't think buying a bike having the only money is a good idea. If you need it then you can go for it. But if you think without a bike you can pass your time easily, then trading would be a better option for you.
And when you though and have some positive vibes about the bitcoin halving then you should wait for it for about a year, you will see your success in one year if you have a good fortune.
I think buying bitcoin to hold for a long time with the OP's $750 will be better and less riskier than trading the money since the OP clearly shows that he doesn't have any knowledge about bitcoin or crypto trading; if he intends to trade the money without trading experience and skills, he will lose the little he has saved and his dream will be shattered.
But 750$ is less amount as buying bitcoin, good for the long term you can earn through it. Sometimes, if a person has good skills and a good fortune he can go to the highest ranks.
In my opinion, no amount is too small for a bitcoin investment, and $750 is a lot of money in my country that can buy me a bike but is not the same as the one the OP displayed in the post. Therefore, investing that amount of money against halving is a good idea, and I am sure the OP will see the benefit of doing that. |

Xabi Alonso's next team could be Real Madrid but I don't think so when it comes to Liverpool. Because Liverpool have already been doing amazing with Jürgen Klopp. This season they have made a big improvement as you have seen so far. If Liverpool have a successful season with Klopp I don't think they would think of parting ways with him.
Besides he still has a contract until 2026. Liverpool want to have a longer relationship with him obviously. But Real Madrid is a realistic candidate for Xabi Alonso even for next summer. Because Ancelotti is leaving for Brazil national team so they will need to bring someone.
That is what I know about the Xabi Alonso movement: he is to replace Carlo Ancelotti at Real Madrid after this season since Ancelotti has agreed to take over Brazil's job as their head coach starting in 2024. Liverpool and Bayern Munich are showing interest because they see Alonso as a great coach in the future because of his performance as the head coach of Bayern Leverkusen and the fact that he has played for their teams. That is why they feel they can easily get him for the benefit of their teams. Xabi Alonso is one of the greatest young coaches in football now, along with Arteta, Xavi Hanandez, De Zerbi, and others. That is why every team will be willing to get him as their manager. |

Because anyway, it seems not will be easy for Ronaldo plays in the World Cup, because Ronaldo is no longer used to the tough competition like what happens in the big leagues in Europe.
LOL.. for me, the quality of Saudi Professional League as of now is much better than many of the European leagues. You may not be able to compare with leagues such as the English Premier League, but SPL is definitely at the level (or even better than) of Bundesliga or Eredivisie. So there is no valid argument in claiming that Ronaldo is not participating in tough competitions. But I can agree with you on one point. Only the four teams sponsored by Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund (PIF) has star players with them. Remaining 14 teams are mostly made of local players, with the exception of a few such as Al-Ettifaq and Al-Taawoun. Hahaha  You mentioned in the Bundesliga that the Saudi Pro League is better than among the European leagues, and you fail to mention French League 1, because I know that the German Bundesliga is more competitive than French League 1. However, after Cristiano Ronaldo's signing in the January transfer window of the previous season and the effort most teams in the league made to sign a few elite players for European teams, the Saudi Pro League has actually improved. The league is currently incredibly competitive to the point that it may be compared to other European elite leagues like League 1 and the Bundesliga since they have attracted more attention and recognition in the league. |

Manchester City still have the firepower even against Arsenal they displayed a lot of it. Arsenal where more defensive and containing the city side, while city where more aggressive in the attack. Of course I will give it to arteta for his brilliant performance, at least it was much better than last season. Also for city side, these guys have been on the winning side week in week out, i believe most of their players might as well suffer from fatigue, and it's natural in football because if Kevin De Bruyne had been on that midfield, trust me we will be having a different conversation here, because Arsenal where really on the lucky side of that game.
That match was a tactical match from two tacticians. Arteta has understand the errors Pep and Manchester City were waiting for just as they did against Arsenal last season home and away, Arsenal played very well but small error gave Manchester City the chance to score Arsenal, that was Arteta avoided in the match that is why the match looks annoying because it seems like both the teams were defending their home; and at end, Arsenal were lucky to win the match. Arsenal is will now remain the tough opponent for Manchester City and will be the only team alongside with Tottenham that will likely win the Premier League this season. |

Newcastle will host Dortmund, even though Newcastle is currently the favorite by the bookies. But that doesn't mean they will win the battle easily. Moreover, currently Dortmund is starting to get back on track. I'm quite sure that this match will be an exciting match. Even though Newcastle is playing at their own headquarters, Dortmund will provide resistance in the next meeting. This match has a chance of a draw. because, for me, Newcastle's performance is still unstable. If Dortmund is able to win the next meeting, that means they will also have 4 points. My hunch is that Dortmund will give us a surprise. However, what is certain is that we are waiting for this fight to take place.
After playing Milan to a draw in their previous game, Dortmund will want to win this one. However, Newcastle United won't waste this chance to go to the round of 16 after leading their group ahead of PSG and Milan. Since they will be playing the first leg at home, they will do everything in their power to defeat Dortmund. They will have a decent chance of qualifying in the group if they can win this first leg since seven points is a nice number, and they won't stop trying to get more. However, Dortmund will also want to win the game to get four points in the group and make it more difficult for the other teams in their group. As for the other match in the Group F phase, PSG will host Milan. The odds given by the bookie favor Paris Saint-Germain. no different from other matches in this group F phase, the home team is the favorite. For this match, I would favor PSG if Enrique didn't do something strange with his system and formation pattern. Apart from that, Assensio is ready to appear, either as a supersub player, or as a main starter as a center forward. Well, I suspect PSG will win this match. If this is the result, Milan's position is really cornered and on the verge of slipping in this group phase. but to be more certain, I will say once, we are waiting for this battle to be held on matchday 3 of the Champions League group phase.
This is the toughest match in Group F. Now that PSG has lost to Newcastle United after beating Dortmund, and Milan drew their two opening matches against Newcastle United and Dortmund, all of them will want to win the match in order to get more advantage in qualifying for the next round. I am not supporting any of them to win because their match is always tough with a high possibility of a draw; therefore, I am expecting a draw in the match. |

At one of the local gambling shop I visited during the weekend I happened to listen to a conversation between two bald looking gamblers at the shop talking about one of their gambling colleague who had won a big amount of money amounting to a million in the local currency and due to that win this colleague of theirs' has been avoiding them since e won that money. From their conversation it was obvious that they were a circle of close three friends that gamble together.
After all I finished with my bet headed home and was asking myself what could the colleague act that way avoiding his close friends they all gambling together and just because luck shines on him first he decides to create a distance and class. I couldn't actually annex a good reason why anyone should do that.
Money changes people, and gambling money is a reward for your passion and dedicated time to predict or forecast games, and this same gambler may have been losing money for a long time before he won such a huge amount of money, and if he stays and gives his friends money, they may end up not appreciating the small amount he gave them because they know the actual amount he won. To prevent such conversations, he should buy a smart phone if he doesn't already have one, and then learn how to gamble online. He will have privacy and will be the only one who knows when he wins and when he loses if he bets online. |

OP said the thread have something like blue background which I think should be this thread by Husires. I do find it difficult to use the forum search bottom as well, but I used google search engine to search anything I want related to this forum by adding bitcointalk.org in front, and I do get some result from this forum directly. Therefore, OP you can read more about the forum search in this thread this thread or you can be using google search like I do. |

The level of difference between some of the clubs makes some games super fun to watch. Some of the teams have some amazing superstar level players, sure they are a bit on the older side and getting closer to their retirement, but also we are talking about a situation that is getting a bit more in trouble for the smaller clubs because even at near retirement age they are still vastly better.
So, when a team filled with those type of stars end up playing against a team that doesn't have anyone like that, the difference is too big and the game becomes fun. It's like professional players are ending up playing against amateurs which is really like the case in most games. It's like bigger than a big club playing against their youth team.
Experience in various leagues and cups is what makes the difference, mostly because these young players are just starting their careers and most of them are yet to play in Europe; they are only opportune to play in the Saudi Pro League and other leagues, so players that have spent more than a decade on European teams have lots of experience to match them down. Very soon, since the Saudi Pro League is becoming more interesting and competitive, young, talented players from Europe will start joining the league to make it more competitive. |

Interest in the Bundesliga had decreased because it had not been competitive for years. It was seen as a simple league that Bayern Munich always won, whereas Dortmund had many players that it brought to world football. Now there will be 2 or 3 teams that can compete with Bayern Munich and hopefully the championship will be won by a team other than Bayern soon. Like everyone else, I want it to be a competitive league.
That is true! Bundesliga and French League one are leagues that only Bayern and PSG were winning which the leagues less competitive, but this season, we are having other teams that are showing their ability to compete with these teams in their leagues. Bayern Leverkusen and Stuttgart have shown impressive performances this season and they overtook Bayern and Dortmund in the league position after seven matches, while Monaco and Nice also did the same in in the League one. The problem with these teams is lack of consistency but I am thinking this is a different season because these teams are well prepared and are planning to take home something huge this time. |

What an incredible story for Arsenal, they finally beat Manchester City in the premier league after so many years and also Arteta finally beating the master tactician Pep in the premier league. Arsenal supporters celebrated this win like they have finally won the league, it just showed how much the win meant to them. It was an interesting game and equally interesting result.
It was something of a joy to Arsenal fans on Sunday because they have been suffering defeats from Manchester City since December 2015. Manchester City has been winning against Arsenal both home and away, which is why they are happy with yesterday’s win at Emirate Stadium. Manchester City were not happy with the result because they think Arsenal players will make the errors they are used to making while playing against them. The match was boring from the beginning due to the respect both teams have for others, and none of them wanted to concede a goal first, but at the end, Mikel Argeta’s bench substitutes provided the difference in the match. This has shown that Arsenal's bench is strong, and Arsenal can now have confidence to face any team in the world. |

Holding is not for the weak once because it takes someone who has financial stability and has spare money for investment to be able to hold bitcoin for a long period of time, while for people who do not have much money for holding bitcoin, they can trade and have some gains if they have knowledge and experience about trading.
2. Transaction Costs ; Hodling comes with a lower transaction cost which is from depositing the Bitcoin in your wallet. However trading incures cost due to frequent transactions
Yes, holding save transaction fee, but some people do use DCA methods to accumulate their bitcoin and it is advisable, I think this transaction cost dose not mean since bitcoin network fee or transaction is not that high and it depend on the network congestion. |

Scammers are creating new ways to scam the innocent people. With more modern technology scammers are adapting to new methods. Although the method you mentioned is kind of old but they are still in use and effective. Thousand of dollars are lost to these scammers daily.
New developments are coming due to the advanced technology age. As people adopt new technologies to improve their privacy and secure their assets and other valuable information online, scammers are also working hard to bridge the new technological ways that have been discovered. That is why we need to be very cautious with our privacy online. Some months ago, I was almost scammed by a clipboard virus. Basically this virus replaces the original sending address with a phishing address. As a result all funds goes to an entirely different address. And it cannot be undone.
I don't know how I got infected. Maybe I downloaded some things or clicked suspicious links. After the incident I started using, sandbox, VM type of software, to test new things or links if I were unsure.
Malware attacks are very bad, and you will be wondering their source; mostly, they are gotten through the visitation of anyhow links that are unofficial while trying to download or install some software on your devices, and sometimes through email spam messages. With or without a malware virus on your device, always double-check your bitcoin address before sending bitcoin. |

There are other methods, which one can buy bitcoin, which is buying at the dip and lump sum, but this method will only help old investors who have accumulated a significant amount of bitcoin. Why is the DIP not too encouraging for newbies is that, no one can predict the price movement of bitcoin when it will dip and if you are waiting for the dip to buy, you might not up using the money that you are keeping for an unforeseen challenges and it will not make you increase your bitcoin portfolio fast. Buying at the dip is good but anyone who is using DCA will have a better chance to increase his bitcoin investment because when bitcoin price dips, they will increase the funds that they are using to DCA and when the price of bitcoin gets, they can reduce the DCA amount. The high price that they bought at the dip will balance the low price that they buy when bitcoin price is very high.
Buying bitcoin at the dip, which is during the bear market, is good for people with financial stability and capital to invest anytime they want, not for people who rely on some certain weekly or monthly income to invest some amount in bitcoin. Those people like us that depend on their monthly salary to buy bitcoin should use the perfect method (DCA), as it is well recommended and will give us the chance to accumulate as much bitcoin as we want. Outside of our pension, this bitcoin investment will also serve as our lifelong savings if we patiently hold the bitcoin for a long time. It can be what will save us after retirement.
Note that one can never increase his bitcoin investment portfolio through trading but rather you will decrease or loss your bitcoin through trading, because trading isn't something very easy as people thinks it is. HODLing is the only way out. You need to have a means of income to enable you buy bitcoin, and if your income is very low, try to get a second means of income, if you really believe in bitcoin. No amount is too small to invest with, the earlier the better as time waits for no one.
Trading is for professionals with skills and knowledge, and it involves high risk compared to just holding. |

I’d like to know what motivates you to invest in a speculative asset like Bitcoin?
My main motivation to invest in Bitcoin is because the alternative to physical currency (fiat) it has brought to us and it gives us freedom in the sense that we don't normally depend on banks again to save our money, and we can have benefit for buying and keeping bitcoin in our wallets. What is the driving force that encourages your continuity in the Bitcointalk forum?
The forum's recognition globally in helping bitcoiners find solutions to their bitcoin-related questions, the information the forum is passing on to the world, and the encouragement the forum is giving to the world to adopt bitcoin who do you listen to in the forum and study to keep your conviction solid?
I listen to every forum user because I take all of them as one and I respect their respective suggestions and opinion and also anybody that share useful information about bitcoin. What do you think are the reasons why some person stopped contributing to the forum positively or are they carried away by the rank they have?
Maybe due to some personal reasons or too much workload. |
