Finally we get to see some action being taken to support all this discussion and deliberation that have being on going due to the high level of spam posts in the board. This our local has been known for things and that's the ability of how fast and quickly we grew from scratch and now we are one of the most respected and most active boards in the forum. The problem seems to how these don't actually learn if not lots of information has been passed to them but yet no answer but yet the spamming continues more.
883  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Wrong Moves With Your Bitcoin on: January 28, 2024, 08:14:59 PM
There has been lot of such instances which I regret right from selling BTC when it was roughly $1000 at the beginning of 2017 and then boom the price reached $20K the same year in December, one more incident which I have repeatedly mentioned in the forum wherein I lost my seed phrase for Blockchain wallet without giving much important considering the price of Bitcoin that time and now I cannot recover it. Also I had converted some of my funds from Bitcoin to a shit coin named Nebilo and lost almost everything and it was not even 10% worth the amount I had invested. These are few of the blunders I have made.
That's some crazy shit mistakes, well atleast you have learnt and took it as a positive energy and I know you wouldn't make such mistake again. For my own experience, I have really gotten such messed mistake maybe that's because I didn't encounter the crypto world quite early but the one I would classify as a mistake would be me selling off my little BTC earnings from the start as of that the price was low and the figure was big , if I had left if till now I know that the earning would be x3 now.
884  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: The importance of mental health on: January 28, 2024, 06:46:46 PM
I discover being happy itself na a good recipe for mental health. So make we take away anything wey go dey make us sad or to dey frown face even frowning of face self dey bring wrinkles and make person dey old for face  Grin

So to dey happy na very good way to chase bad health because if you dey think too much na your heart the thing go soon hit giving the person HBP.  Solution na to dey do wetin dey make someone happy, go for check, avoid self medication and eat healthy.
The problem people do have with mental health is that some people don't even knows what makes them to be happy,  and what they can do to be happy.  They just allow difficult situations,  painful things to rule over them. It is very important for everyone to check their mental health if it is really good for them.so many lost their life because they lack understanding to help themselves to be free from mental stress.  It is important for one to try to do things that will help  to be free from mental stress.
There is this problem with most person that I have discovered and that is the issue of not knowing themselves in respect of displeasing themselves and pleasing others, some people find it very difficult to actually tell someone NO, maybe they feel they will displease by the answer they give to the person so in other to make others happy they go as far doing things that will cost them their own happiness just to fulfill the state of all righteousness which if you ask me is really absurd and foolish.
885  Other / Off-topic / Re: Having a regular/steady income is important as a gambler. on: January 28, 2024, 06:19:40 PM
Gambling though is a risky game that the chances of winning and losing is in equilibrium but however in other for one to have a possibility of winning, it requires a steady income.

 Having a steady and regular income is very important as a gambler because it would enable you to scrap out money you should use for gambling, feeding, taking care of yourself and family and other miscellaneous.

A gambler who has a steady and regular income can have the possibility of winning because his gambling habit can not affect his personal obligations as a man even if he's an addict because being addicted to gambling doesn't actually implies that one will eventually stake all his money on bets but rather someone who plays gambling frequently. By having a steady income, he can take care of other life responsibilities without being affected by his gambling activities and moreover, someone who have a stable income can be aiming to win higher amount in his bets and might be lucky of winning one day and use the money to establish an investment.

Your thoughts on this
Thank you for this wonderful explanation of how a gambler should be because I have told one of my friend time without number that being a gambler doesn't only mean that one should be fix on dreaming of winning big and then putting money that you should be using for other important things into gambling. This particular friend of mine has done crazy things and believe me he is fucking addicted and the worse of it all is that the funds he is receiving isn't really covering what he is spending.
886  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Why Celebrity Marriages Dey Quick Break for Naija? on: January 28, 2024, 06:09:41 PM
The matter about break e don dey trend everywhere and I believe say na actually the thought of most females as dem dey claim say dem no wan be house wife and na independent woman dem wan be. Many of the women sef dey after the wealth of the man and nothing else and our Nigerian have grown found of the act.
887  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Do you have a hard time bringing new people to the forum? on: January 28, 2024, 06:06:31 PM
One thing about bringing people to this forum is you need to look at how the person think and his level of intellectual if they are the type that can learn and all of that, my self I have seen people whom I introduce to the forum over the years only few many of them are still active till date as most of them did not treat the forum as a community to gain information, but there is someone among everyone whom I brought here who have gained more crypto knowledge that me who brought him here and he is even doing well with a higher rank account than me who brought him here, the thing is it’s a matter of willingness and ready to learn some people are not even worth to be in the crypto space to start with so you meet such people it will be difficult to put them on the line.
That's very correct brother, I don't think anyone can make it here and I say this prior to the level of seriousness and willingness that person has to learn because most person are lazy and don't want to do anything that will actually stress them and that's why they feel this place is certainly a no no to them. Like you, I actually brought someone to learn and also maybe enjoy the privileges that the forum present but due to pride and so many unmentionable character the person actually quite along the  way and gave up and since I have been very reluctant even if someone says he has developed interest in Bitcoin.
888  Other / Meta / Re: Use of AI on Bitcoin talk on: January 27, 2024, 07:04:08 PM
I think the confusion there is when he actually Said the person should Ai to correct his Grammer properly well  I don't know if that's what he really meant but I can say that the use of English correction app in your keyboard can go a long way and one of such is the granmerly app although am used to the free version on Google search engine where I would just input my word written and the granmerly will just help me correct most of the sentences is quite effective because I know how much difference it has made to post and improvement in terms of trying to convey a message across to my readers here in the community. In other for a post to flourish there must be good understanding of the reader and the message past if not there will be total confusion.

Atleast it's far better than using AI generate text which I believe most users here argue that it fit into the category plagerism which this community frawn at.
889  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can gambling addiction lead to domestic violence? on: January 27, 2024, 06:51:43 PM
Being addicted to gambling can be a thorn in the flesh. We have heard many bad behavior from gambling addicts that shows that gambling is a serious concern requiring serious efforts at curbing it. Many casinos also include in their disclaimer "gamble responsibly" and this shows the danger of gambling addiction.

However, I'm wondering if addiction can make someone become aggressive to the point of leading to domestic violence. Has there been any known case of it happening? Lets know what you have to say.
This is practically the base action to every gambling addict and believe me my friend you would be surprised to what gambling addiction can do in the life of a chronic gambler. When it comes to gambling addiction and domestic violence I really can count the number of cases that am well familiar with and most of them are involving the issues of the woman giving advice to her husband for the excuses for him always squandering his money and the man lashes out all his frustration on her like a panther waiting aimlessly for his prey.
890  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Focus on how much you may lose and not only the potential win. on: January 27, 2024, 06:46:38 PM

OP, I vividly understand you, but gamblers don't think this way, note the idea of a gambler is to win despite that most of them know that losing is inevitable in gambling, some gamblers see winning to be a constant thing in gambling but that's is high level of fallacy, gambling has principles and these principles must come to play, it is normal for a good gambler to have it in mind that gambling is not a certain event so that when you gamble, your expectation shouldn't be one sided, you should reason in different direction which is the aspect of failing to retain your stake or getting your stake back with profits attached.

The gambler get into the gambling in the way of getting the winning dollars in the gambling site.The gambler should ready to face the gambling loss when they have the negative side of game.The gambling doesn’t have the constant win or loss in the game,the gambler should ready to face it.The gambler who use the strategy to win the game will able to win the good money in the gambling.The gambler who use to bet in the random way without any stable game will loss the funds at the end.Many gamblers will do this mistake in the betting,the expectation in the gambling should be accepted in both the positive and negative way.
anyone who is into gambling no quite well that gambling is all about risk and it is obvious that in gambling there is every possibility for you to lose in gambling and you might lose today and also win tomorrow so therefore Gamble it is like price of Bitcoin it is unpredictable so therefore I believe that whatever that comes out of gambling it is based on luck and he is not good to for someone to depend in gambling and also believe that you will be making profit consistently in gambling so I don't believe in that theory and that belief that you can be making profit in gambling always when you have such belief you continue to spend your money and it will lead you to be gambling addicted
Every gambler is well aware of that fact and that's why most people who gamble are always not dependent on their gambling habits to feed and am just really to see or even hear that someone doesn't think about the risk that is involved in it before gambling. Before ever anyone start to gamble he is well aware of the risk thats is involved so getting the loses is actually not suppose to be something new and more every gambler knows that the loses are always more than the earnings.
891  Economy / Speculation / Re: Best time to buy BTC NOW? on: January 27, 2024, 06:15:08 PM
As you might know, the price of bitcoin reached its lower point since last month.

Should those who want to buy more do it now or do you believe we'll see the bitcoin price get down a little more?

Some here were talking about rumours of BTC being purchased from Saudi Arabia, but well, that's just a rumour.
But people tend to panic and sell, so this might be the best moment to buy as much btc as possible. What do you think?
I think it's best for you to just keep buying because if you are waiting for the price to drop then you would be surprised the many opportunities that you will miss out Just in the case of waiting for the right to buy. There are lots of person who have waited and still yet nothing to show for when it comes to the amount bitcoin that they hold because on every second and time you waste the price might just tend to go higher.
892  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: All professions are important on: January 27, 2024, 06:10:03 PM
Like they will always say that knowledge is a waste , every profession is good which if one don ahm well him go fit get the least wey him go take help himself.  Everything na consistency,  as you continue to do it that is how you will grow in it, make people no look down on their profession. In life na who give na fuck up , in everything you find yourself doing try to make sure you do it well because when it is done well people will come after you just because of your great work.
I think you mean that no knowledge is a waste because with what I read you type that knowledge is a waste but I can understand since it's a common mistake for everyone that constantly types.

Well me I believe say nothing wey no dey important and most especially when e come be your discipline. Many there is one law of nature I won't forget which na the one wey concince hard work, commitment and belief because these things na watin man gats work with in other to be successful e no matter the profession just dey do your things dey go and you dey OK.
893  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Crypto Academy on: January 27, 2024, 06:04:33 PM
Good morning my fellow member of this local board and happy weekend to you all.
It’s a wonderful day again and another day to talk about this wonderful forum. Today I wake up with this wonderful topic which says “Crypto academy”
Now why did I say crypto academy? Can we all agree that this forum is a crypto academy which teaches and enlighten us with the understanding of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in the world as a whole. Before I came into this wonderful forum I had slight understanding about bitcoin or cryptocurrencies. When I first heard about bitcoin, I thought it’s all about kobo like coins which other countries uses, funny right? I thought cryptocurrencies is the name of a country currency as we have niara in Nigeria, dollar in the U.S and pounds in the U.K. What I’m say is that thanks to this forum I’ve known that bitcoin is a cryptocurrency and it’s a digital currency. Now mining, when they say mining what comes to your mind? Digging out golds right? That’s what I thought at first but thanks to this forum I now know that mining bitcoin simply means obtaining units of a cryptocurrency by running a computer process to solve specific mathematical problems. Wonderful! What a forum that’s helps us with this wonderful knowledge. So now can we say it’s a bitcoin academy? As for me it is a crypto academy. Well I also want to specially thank the kingmakers that brought out this local board and also thank the kingmakers that brought out this forum as a whole. I call them kingmakers because their are members of this forum in which it has changed their life for the better and I’m also one of those in which this forum has changed. I can now afford some certain personal things I need without asking or begging for it.

I also want to use this opportunity to advise youths out their roaming around the street stealing and causing all kinds of nonsense why not look for legit way to make money online, maybe after learning about Bitcoin, you might go into its investment or trading to make extra cash. Currently now, we have several persons who sells Bitcoin and other crypto locally and they are making money from it.

Those of us who got majority of our knowledge about Bitcoin from this forum please let take out time to appreciate the forum.
Your own misconception about the meaning of bitcoin is rather odd I must but all the same it's accept because what you don't know you actually don't know it. About the forum being an academy, well it's okay to call it that because the knowledge this place houses is far beyond even our own comprehension and I believe every single person here has indeed gain and tap from it either one way or the other. Bitcointalk is definitely a unique place if you want to really learn about bitcoin and crypto just be sure you keep your mind stable and learn very well and you will be surprised to see yourself growing beyond excellence.
894  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Dollar increase on: January 26, 2024, 01:06:54 PM
Me I know really know watin dey happen to our naira sef because the matter just tire me the way the increase just dey come. Imagine something that was just 450naira to a dollar as of early last year and Boom! 1400naira. With the rate at which this thing dey increase I fit even dey more suprised to see the price reach 2000naira and this matter dey affect we Nigerian very badly because the cost of things go just skyrocket.
895  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Another question? Tell me your average amount per bet and your monthly income? on: January 26, 2024, 01:02:29 PM
Hello gamblers, this is a kind of survey aimed at getting to know my fellow gamblers better, particularly in the context of sports betting. I would like to know your average bet amount and your monthly income.

You don't need to provide exact figures; an estimate would suffice. Through this discussion, we can assess whether we are being too aggressive in our gambling habits or if we are playing it safe with our bets.
I know many people say this, that their betting amount is ratio according to their earnings, maybe 10-15 percent but for me I won't lie, I really don't have a specific amount of money I put into gambling, I just gamble whenever am in the mood and I usually gamble in free hours and that's not much comparing the kind of work I do, but if am to put into figure then I think that will be around 7% of my monthly earning.
896  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: cashout or wait till the end? on: January 26, 2024, 12:57:49 PM

How would you feel if you had the opportunity to cashout this amount, and later loose all?

most times people always find it difficult to cashout their fund when they have the opportunity,  due to having that mindset that they want to go home with the Goody bag. by so doing Sometimes the game will end without them winning a dime. but loosing all to nothing. while some will cashout, and later the game will end well and they will start regretting why dey didn't wait to the final.
now my question this,

cashing out or waiting till the end of game which is more better?

Well I don't see the remaining games in your betslip if not I would made my decision through the risk that particular game carries that's if it's just one game remaining but if the games are more than one then cashing out the game is probably the best option to take because taking the half is better than losing all the money so I think cash out is better in some cases while as the situation permits leaving too is also not a bad option.
897  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How much Did you like this forum on: January 26, 2024, 12:53:55 PM
Why would anyone here not like this forum as a matter of fact I have learnt and also enjoyed so many privilege since my coming to this forum and am really really happy to be here. My knowledge about cryptocurrency and other area like economics have increased to the very highest and I can say that this community is no.1 when it comes to places given you correct information about Bitcoin.
898  Economy / Speculation / Re: will the btc price reach 100k ? on: January 26, 2024, 12:50:04 PM
for the year it is still difficult to reach 100k dollars. although this year is a halving year. but usually in the year of halving the usual bitcoin price does not skyrocket high. but usually 1 year after halving the new bitcoin price can skyrocket high.
for this year I answer clearly will not be able to reach 100k dollars but if next year there is still a chance to reach 100k dollars
What you say could be like that, but the influence before the halving will certainly provide encouragement for the movement of bitcoin. If the price can be above $50K, instead of being corrected, of course reaching $100K could happen at the end of this year.
but usually after the halving,  the movement will slowly increase, but of course what is hoped is that next year a renewable ATH can be formed with quite fantastic values.
Everyone in the entire crypto space is hoping for this increase and the best we can do is to buy and keep holding. For the price reaching 100k before the end of this year, well I can't really tell but I know that Bitcoin will set new ATH come 2025 but the only thing am hoping for is that the price should just go lower to the value of 35k so people who just bought Bitcoin can buy more and wait to see the end result.
899  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: To any Bitcoin holder who lost their seed: How did you lose it? on: January 26, 2024, 12:45:25 PM
What mistakes did you make, and what advice do you have for others to be careful?

What are the best and worst ways of storing a seed in your opinion?
I never lost my seed phrase before and I think this forum here is responsible for that because my time here has let me know how vital keeping your seed phrase is. Imagine having millions of dollars on your wallet and then you woke up one morning and you lost the device to which the wallet is located and you want to get access to that account, I could only imagine the frustration that one would face and I pray I never experienced such situation in my life.
900  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you think gamblers do retired betting gambles on: January 25, 2024, 11:44:16 PM
As a gambler what do you think that should be the right time we suppose to leave gambling weather we are making profits or we are not making profits with gambling, because I know quite well that gambling whenever you are making profits you will wish to continue gambling unless that you run out of cash.
This will depend on the contentment of the gambler as we can see, even old people still into gambling and some consider this as their kill time since they don't have anything to do and most of them prefer to gamble more. Personally, I can't tell when I will stop to gamble since I'm just an occasional gambler and didn't have much expectation in gambling that's why I can stop gambling anytime, this is not a big deal for me.
Just like we say gambling is for fun same things for this old man, maybe he just tired of doing nothin and he just craves that kind of rush to his his blood when he was abit hunger. Gambling is always fun when you actual don't have mind in doing it and this is part where plenty gamblers fall victim because the y don't know what they are doing. Even the old men do enjoy gambling because for some reason and aslo this saying old habits never die and also the reason when he head the money.
