881  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitcoin 10 Years Ago: Crossing the $1000 mark / Lessons Learned on: October 24, 2023, 04:07:44 PM
If you're comparing bitcoin in 10 years ago to what we have this present time, you will discover there's much to discuss regarding that because bitcoin has always been a well consistently performing digital currency over the years, take a look at the market price, the market cap, it's volatility and diverse opportunities that got birth through this digital currency adoption, see to the trends and look on how it moves from $100 to $1000 and thereafter on how it has been over $10,000 to its all time high of $68,000 and also how we are moving hence from there to a new ATH after next year halving.

883  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Bitcoin price speculation (BTC/NGN) on: October 24, 2023, 02:50:41 PM
Well it is really a good and sad news at same time because the increase in price of bitcoin is also gonna affect other coins and moreover for us in Nigeria you know what it gonna mean, our naira will still depreciate and the prices of goods, commodities and services will still skyrocket so the more you earn the more you spend as well, well it's a good news for those of us that stored bitcoins in our wallets
I understood what you meant by the more you earn in naira the more you spend, but the depreciation of naira price has nothing to do with the price and value of bitcoin and altcoins that are increasing. Nigerian government are incompetent enough to let Nigeria have good economy that would be enough to make naira not depreciate the way it. For those that have money in bitcoin already, they are not affected but benefitted.

For the benefits of those that earn in USD, they are a way forward because they will emerger this same increase on the value of their money when converted to naira, but considering those that does not have a means of earnings in USD and only depends on naira to exchange it for USD, they may suffer in buying imported items because of the inflation rate, those that are badly affected are the average Nigerians who does not make use of USD in buying and selling but only depends on naira as their earnings.

Every other commodities in the market will inflate in price while there's nothing increasing from what they are generating as salary or overhead income, if this prolonged then we may be scared of getting an increased poverty rate together with many forms of crime which the average youths may engage in other to make their survival through, government should look into this because the poor and average citizens are the ones bearing the cost to this.
884  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How often is your luck in gambling? on: October 23, 2023, 04:27:15 PM

There is no luck exist in the gamble. If you work porperly you experience will increase and make your winning level high. There is no luck exist in gamble. Your hard work and experience help you here luck matters but experience needed.

There is an element of luck in the gambling system despite the experience because so many gamblers are experienced and old timers in it but not all experienced gamblers are lucky and successful in winning there games because if they are then the casino companies would have packed up. Gambling involves luck and no doubt about that despite our experience and good research before embarking on betting.

A gambler who is not favoured by luck will lose more than win.

Talking about luck in gambling, everyone is free and entitled to benefit from having luck but not all have the experience of being lucky each time they are gambling, if we are to pay more attention on how lucky we are in most of our gambling experience, we may got discouraged when we discover it's nothing to write about because each time we are gambling, we are more likely to loose than to win, also we should know that gambling is not a win-win game, we are doing it because we wanted to have fun with ourselves each time we are gambling, which means that we should be less concerned on wether we win or looses each time we are gambling in other not to feel depressed.
885  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Referral bonuses are waste of time on: October 23, 2023, 02:40:22 PM
well I understand your points. I believed referral bonus is given to someone when the customer refer the site link to a friend. And I have been receiving such email from casinos but I ignore them. While welcome bonus is the one we get when registering to a new casino site but I registered to a casino recently which promised me to to give welcome bonus but I didn't see anything. That is not withstanding. Many gamblers join some casinos because of the bonus while some abuse these bonuses. Though some use it to win big, that is their luck.
You are very correct but then not just a refers bonus given to a gambler when someone register through the link,  but also it goes further to as how much wager does the gambler downline have and what becomes of them at the end of the month and in total it is paid out to the gamblers monthly,  so that becomes both referral and affiliate.

So much so the bonus is or subject to wager requirements like the welcome bonuses where you have to wager it at the end of the day which will increase your own risk.

You're both right, in going for referral bonus, there are set terms and conditions provided for anyone who is interested in going for this in gambling, we must first see to this terms and conditions before going for the referral bonus, also the level of the outcome of what we did will determine the rate of the reward we will be given base on the agreement on their policy, the harder we work for them in referring people to gamble the more likely our chances of getting more bonus, so also it applies to our downlines in some cases.
886  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: First bull run - how to not sell too early? on: October 23, 2023, 02:04:23 PM
Any advice or individual plan when it comes to selling in bull run?

It is very important that we should know this that we aren't yet in the bullrun season, the market may be going bull for now that things are pumping well and as expected, we should also bear in mind that anything can happen at any time and we see little of bear market than we expect before we eventually launch in for the bullrun drive after next year halving, now is just a period that the market is in favour of traders and not even the long time holders because we are faraway from bitcoin all time high of $68,000 and we expect the market to continue pumping like this till we get to where we are heading gradually.

888  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Supreme Court Justices a Shame or Praise on: October 23, 2023, 12:13:29 PM
What you should first considers in relating with the affair of the court of Justice is by first considering the numbers of court cases they had managed to judge well ultimate fareness to the numbers if court cases that have been done out of personal interest, as we all know, that at the court if Justice lies many witnesses, experienced individuals and other reputable judges to al witness the fairness of any judge caee made, i also believe for someone to have attained the position of being the chief judge, such individuals must have passed through alot in test of time to have being found approved

If we can't have enough confidence in the supreme Court of Justice, then where else can we go to have the right vindication over a court case, we don't have to think that cases in this regard is only applicable to our own country alone, this is a common and global challenge we can have with any country, anything that has to ro with government and the political power may actually not carry the same weight of Justice as expected except when a centralized authority is not involved, however we cannot force some things to be than allowing nature to fight back against every injustice orchestrated by those in power.
889  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Lotteries and possibility vs. probability on: October 21, 2023, 11:08:47 AM
For any addicted gambler that is fed up of using money for gambling, we can start in something new by having a related gambling experience through lottery which we can apply freely and wait for our luck to come, though in most cases, lottery is not thesame as gambling whereby you make decisions on yourself as to how the whole show should be, you only follow instructions to apply for it and wait for the result to comes out if lucky, those who always wish earnings is their target through gambling can try applying for lottery to increase their chances of making money instead of waiting on gambling alone.
890  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Advice when you are going a bit far in gaming and betting on: October 21, 2023, 10:42:28 AM
Setting a budget is an important step in managing overall finances. This help maintain financial balance and prevents overspending in any activity, including gambling. By having firm principles and discipline towards your budget, you can ensure thats the financial decisions you make are within limits that can be managed in a healthy and responsible manner.
As well as maintaining commitment to a budgets will help you avoid debt trap and promote long term financial well being, so always be able to set a suitable budget and stick to it so thats if we experience defeat it will stop us and not chase those losses.

Yes, many times we have heard this tips, and I will tell you that some times even if I know this trick already, I will still succumb to play even more specially when I'm in a losing skid. So I will deposit just enough money to play, however, when I experienced a losing streak, very hard to control on my end as I will come back and chase or just recoup what I have lost.

But there are times that I was able to comeback and win some, but very hard when you lose your initial capital + another deposit. It will not feel good and I will say that I'm also affected mentality. Nevertheless, I can get back after a while and not be bothered by the worst experienced and just wanted to remember that not to overspend and just play what I can afford to lose.

Settings a limit to how much we can spend in gambling may not work out as expected in as much as we are having the money in our casino wallet account, the more we keep playing bet the more we finds it more interesting to continue with the attempts and have better chances of winning without minding the possible risk involved.

Gambling fun is an irresistible form of an entertainment whereby if started, it is is difficult to stop the fun except when there's no money to use up for more entertainment, thus is why what we can afford to loose should be the limit of what our casino wallet should have.
891  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Craig "Faketoshi" Wright saga continues. His team turns against him. on: October 21, 2023, 10:12:39 AM
And of course, crashing the market would be an undesirable side effect.

What do you mean by that? How would the market crash?

I guess from his context, what he meant was the market bear and not that the bitcoin network crashing as the thought might have shown in his expression, though we all have different ways of expressing ourselves but crashing in this regard could either mean the price crashing or the network completely going down crashing, which i believe that was not his intention on that.

As for Craig Wright and his fake teams, the table is turning around already by the table shaker, preys are now hunting after their hunter, law of karma.
892  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quit gamble! Easy or Hard? Let's talk. on: October 20, 2023, 12:52:03 PM

Well, thank you very much.
I also feel sad and don't want to do anything. But this would be the wrong problem. Our lives are affected by gambling. We should put that thought aside. If you lose money, you can get it back, but if you lose your job or love, it is not easy to get it back.
I consider this a lesson worthy of us spending that money to buy this lesson. Now, I continue to gamble. But my mind is now very comfortable. The amount of money I'm willing to lose will never affect my life. A little knowledge and experience will be an advantage when playing this game. And it is still important not to be too greedy when you have won in gambling.

The gambler after losing the money,started to get addicted by the gambling.The main reason was to get back the loss in the gambling,but they fail to understand.It’s hard to recover the loss in the gambling until you had luck at that time.It’s hard to get back the job after fired by your boss.Some gambler start to do gambling as the full time after losing the job by the situation.Controlling your mindset was the important one in the gambling.If you loss ten games in a row,you should ready to quit the gambling for a period of one week atleast.So you forgot the loss pattern in the gambling.After the vacation,you can easy win by the free mindset in the gambling.

We don't get the recovery of our money back from gambling by being addicted thinking that's the only way to strive hard to ensure an opportunity comes for recovering the losses, instead we keep accumulating to the losses already incurred, the more to try hard the higher the losses we see, some only need to change their personal pattern of gambling or the kind of game they play bet on and try new things out.
893  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: what are the reputable casino with vault feature? on: October 20, 2023, 12:33:27 PM
Do anyone play on casino's which have vault feature (a wallet type feature where we store the crypto which we don't want to play with)

Am yet to come across any yet, i don't see a reason why they should allow for that when you're expected to use your money to gamble on their wallet, it's better not to deposit any amount one wouldn't want to use for gambling on the casino wallet, instead, get a non custodial wallet and keep your fund there safely, casinos creates wallet for you to be used for gambling purpose, but you may decide not to gamble with the money as the fund remains on their website.
894  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is cluster? on: October 20, 2023, 11:41:06 AM
Now that the information required about cluster has been given, don't you think anything about the message you received as PM, why is he contacting you even if your address is belonging to a cluster, what relationship had he got to do with your own address, you need to be very careful and be at alert by not creating further scenes than this with the newbie contacting you, because to me it makes no benefits informing you about that, why does he has to know which cluster you belong.
895  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: how many halvings have you witnessed? on: October 20, 2023, 10:12:39 AM
The highest so far that has happened is three and this coming one will make it four, I've witnessed one already and next year halving will be my second, part of the interesting things to write about this event is the massive rise in the market, whereby many bitcoin investors have the opportunity to make profits from what they have Invested over time, this also extend to other cryptocurrencies as well because the market rises except for shitcoins.
896  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A Lady Cried After Losing to Sports Bet. Gambling is Not Your Mate. on: October 19, 2023, 10:42:59 AM
1. Gambling is not for the weak and its also not for kids
2. Don't gamble with funds you can't loose or forgo.
3. Don't have expectations on gambling outcomes as they are not guaranteed.

I still wonder what a woman is lurking around for in gambling, they can't take risk, afford to loose money or even get the mind of gamblers, women are very emotional and therefore cannot have that kind of a risk bearing mind to take risk for gambling, she would have expected to see the winning coming instead of losses but things came to her surprised all of a sudden that she discover her money is gone for good.
897  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: What really happened to Nigeria Economy on: October 19, 2023, 10:15:58 AM
Often times i keep wondering how our economy that was glooming during the administration of former president Goodluck Jonathan has been facing severe drop down and setback by our present governments.

Maybe you're too fast about this, you can also go down the history a little more backwards and look at how things were before and after independence, compare it from then till date and see how things have continually gone worst than ever, before GoodLuck became the president, Obasanjo did well, Yar'Adua did better and things were getting better ever since, when it was GoodLuck turns, they begin to play politics to turn the table down and we think things have gone worst not knowing nothing is happening yet.

People stage a national protest against the administration and he couldn't go the second tenure, now look at where we are when everyone thinks GMB is the worst, think keep getting bad than ever instead of better, today the exchange rate of USD to naira $1=1,150 the economy is getting better indeed.



898  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: SATOSHI(the smaller units of Bitcoin) and why e dey important. on: October 19, 2023, 09:50:10 AM
Since almost every currencies has their own smaller unit of currency, then having sats as the smaller unit of bitcoin not something new that we should expect, where we need to concentrate more is on people understanding the value of this unit and the corresponding value it worth respectively both in bitcoin and in USD, many organizations do reward people in sats for doing some minor task for them, this will also help newbies to easily finds many only rewarding platforms that pays in sat for their services and have a taste of how digital currency is and can make transactions in them before using the main bitcoin, most beginners are found in this category because they are learning.
899  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: A Simple Yet Powerful Message That Will Always Hold True on: October 19, 2023, 09:34:50 AM
The message to newbies has always been the same since the beginning of time. From bitcoin creation to the very time altcoin started to pop up, till the era of NFTs, airdrops and other silly nonsense that shows up to deceive the naive ones.

This was not the reason why altcoins were created, they were created out of good intentions as well, but because most of them are centralized unlike bitcoin, individuals take advantage of that to create such projects in other to scam people, when everything first started, things weren't as this bad, NFTs are profitable, airdrops are rewarding, all memecoins are being trusted.

But when people realized that the whole process in doing these are not in a regulated manners, they take decisions on theirselves to use it on other's weakness and scam them, this is one of the reasons why every newbies should focus on bitcoin because it's secured, decentralized and consistent with trust.
900  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: some of the best ways to secure yourself from scammers on: October 19, 2023, 09:17:45 AM
Vigilance, awareness, and sound security procedures are all necessary for scammer protection.

If we are not giving scammers the route to penetrate in and attack us, it's very impossible for them to just locate us like that and scam us without having anything in common with them, we also have to learn to control ourselves and behave moderately, everything is not all about money, if it looks too good to be real then take a little step back and verify very that you're on the right track and think twice upon every steps and decisions.

Check identities Never give personal or financial information to anybody without first confirming their identity. Request formal credentials and check with the organisation by contacting them through their website or other contact details.

Since many have been scammed through impersonation, this may be in person, through profiles or cloned sites, we also have to developed more awareness on how to know any physhing or malicious means of attacks scammers uses, we must also keep our private keys safe and never allow any third party have access to them, most are scammed because they engage a poor security practice.
