It is not possible to just hack into anyone's account and recover/steal their coins; the victims have to make a mistake and be loose on their security, before they can possibly be hacked. Anyone who is promising you that they can recover your lost coins is a scammer, Bitcoin transactions cannot be reversed and your best chance is to report the case to the authorities, though in most cases they cannot also be of help to you and can only try if it is a large amount you lost.

The thing here is that OP never explicitly said they bought Bitcoin, look what OP said:
So it is possible OP never bought Bitcoin and in my last post i asked OP what coins they bought, but no reply yet. Some people hear about Bitcoin and its halving and start buying so many altcoins, i am guessing that is what OP did here and they would have to be extremely lucky to get ROI, depending on the altcoins they bought.

What coins did you buy, you did not mention the coins you bought, neither did you say you bought bitcoins. So i am guessing you bought some altcoins, and because altcoins have no actual utility, you'd be luckly to get any sort of ROI on them. That being said, if Bitcoin is part of your portfolio, then you have to be patient, if you were told it's a get rich quick scheme, then you have been lied to, hodl your coins and if possible buy more when there is a dip in price.

Of course them fit do am, they have the power to clampdown on every cryptocurrency exchange in Nigeria, but even they know that they would be deceiving themselves at that point. They know cryptocurrency exchanges are not to blame for the depreciation of the Naira and that was basically the true value of the Naira. What the government has just done is use manipulation/force to make the Naira appreciate against the dollar, but it can only be temporary and soon again we'll see the true value of the Naira surface again.

I second this, nothing should make one keep their assets in a centralized exchange, if you do not want to trade it, then don't send it into a centralized exchange. It is common for people to say they have had their funds in a custodial service for a long time and they are yet to lose it, but they forget that it does not mean the assets are safe and it only takes a blink of an eye for the exchange to halt withdrawals and file for bankruptcy.

This is not a forum problem, but one for the campaign manager and their participants, they can agree to collect payments monthly or bi-weekly, but it has nothing to do with the forum per se or its administrators.
I don't really understand what you are trying to say here, firstly, the forum in itself does not offer escrow services and how do you send Bitcoin in a way that is similar to the merit system? Bitcointalk does not pay users on this forum, it is corporations that run campaigns here, that pays people who advertise their service, so it is up to their campaign managers to decide what is best for business and also those "hired".

You cannot be sure of that, you cannot be sure of anything in crypto, especially with altcoins. I don't know much about these coins and it might be possible to make money with one or two of them, but i would bet the chances of losing money is higher. My opinion of investing in new altcoins is to wait until the price starts to rise and do not buy too much of them, if you buy too many coins when the price is low, then your gamble might not pay off with all of them and you'd lose quite a lot of money.

I don't think it is possible for them to completely eradicate scam/phishing applications being published in their platform, they can scrutinize things better and be more stringent with things anyway. Don't wait for google to help you, do what's best for your own security, download stuffs only from their original website and be very cautious if you must download from either playstore or apps store.

Goodluck bro, the local board needs a local moderator, just the same way it needs a few child boards. I don't know if Theymos is ready to give us our own local moderator yet or if you have had discussions with him privately about it, nonetheless, you'd make a good local board moderator if he decides to choose one, and there are one or two other Nigerians that are also fit for the role, if they are interested of course.

This isn't enough to disable the lock feature in the reputation board.

I would be surprised if anyone is going to reach a conclusion about a particular user, based only on the information they found in a locked thread. They can basically check the trust feedback of the user who was accused wrongly and that of the user who made the post, and if still in doubt, they can create a new topic and ask questions.

The lock function is so important, when the discussion in a thread is over or an issue is solved, it should be locked and buried under the new topics.

They prolly are, but it changes nothing in the grand scheme of things. Google playstore and Apple's appstore is not safe to download your crypto wallets or any crypto tool, it is very possible to download a phishing application that will lure you to input your seed phrase and lose your money.

If they are suing crypto scammers now, then good a thing, but they should also be stricter in their policy of publishing applications in their platforms, this would not mean it becomes safe to use, but it would make things safer for people who are hell bent on always using their platforms.

OP this is not rocket science and there is no need for you to try to bring in any extra meaning or anything of that sort, Bitcoin's highest ever price at a particular time is its all time high. If the price rises and breaks the previous ATH, a new one is set and so on, and we could prolly see an ATH as high as $100k this year, or even more.

Lol, all the countries in the world should also have the same minimum wage, use the same currency and experience the same economic growth, for this to happen. The prices of goods cannot be the same in all countries, for example, how do you compare the standard of living in the United States, to that of a third world country, and how can goods be valued in the same way in both countries, it is basically impossible.

That being said, if it is a foreign product, and you want to purchase it directly from abroad, then you have to pay using the currency of the country where the goods was produced, or its equivalent.

How many sats/vbyte wey you add to your transaction? As things be now ehn, if you used anything less than 70 sat/vbyte, then no hope for your transaction to be confirmed and you just have to wait. Another thing wey you fit do na to try to use ViaBTC free accelerator, but that one na if your transaction meet their requirement. ViaBTC dey help Bitcoin users by accelerating 20 transactions every hour, so if you dey lucky, you fit be one of the people wey dem go accelerate im transaction.

Satoshi created Bitcoin in such a way that the network no longer needed him, he played his own part before he left this decentralized network. I don't see anything "unfortunate" in what Satoshi did, he created a p2p cash system for people who wanted to control their finances, and made it in such a way that it is the community itself that makes its own decision and not the creator or any central authority. Satoshi may be dead by now, or maybe he did move to develop another project, whichever it is, he has already done so much for lovers of decentralization.

As long as it is online, you can be hacked and your assets will be stolen by the attacker, what online storage platforms are you talking about, and are these storage platforms in the same device. If you are putting together your own pattern of security, then mind you that you are inviting trouble, there is no safer way than writing down your seed phrase on paper or carving it on a steel plate.

As things be now, na wetin most people dey do, runes don make transaction fee rise like mad and if you wan send coins via the Bitcoin network now, the fees wey you go pay go dey excessive. Wetin dey pain me be say, e go hard make you tell person about Bitcoin right now, because even if the person decides to use Bitcoin, how dem go take buy am as fees cost like this, the matter tire me wella.

You ask if SAFE is safe, and then you go on to tell us so much about it, that it almost sounds like you are subtly promoting it. Without even doing any research on this, i would not throw money on a coin like this, and the name also sounds ridiculous. 'Safe' is when you buy a coin that has an actual utility, is sustainable for the long term and has a real community around it, if you continue purchasing numerous new coins/tokens, you'll be losing your hard earned money to them.

Theymos only recently changed his mind about jambler, and stated it would be treated as a mixer from the 22nd of this month, and the campaign stopped a week or so before then. So what should the ban be for?

Nobody is even going to make a topic that they are selling merits, so there are no such topics for you to report to the moderator. Merit abuse is very difficult to prove on the forum, and unless you have concrete evidence, it is better not to make a thread falsely accusing users of merit abuse.

If merit abuse involves a merit source, then it is a bigger case and if proven the admin would remove the user from that position and they will be tagged, but if it involves a non-merit source, too many users won't even be interested.
