901  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which currency do you prefer to use for BTC/LTC/ETH transactions? on: December 22, 2023, 06:53:05 AM
I have all my holding on Bitcoin so all transaction are being done with it, despite the transaction fees, I still find it convenient to use. But there are other alternative that could be used in this situation of mempool congestion leading to increase in transaction fees. Even those using  only bitcoin could swap to a coin that uses lower transaction fee when they are about to make transaction to escape from the high transaction fees. Op since you are comfortable using Litecoin fro transaction I advise you stick to what's good for you, rather than looking for any alternative that might not suite you.
902  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: When do you take out your investment when in profit? on: December 22, 2023, 06:41:08 AM
Ok I think taking that amount fo profit isn't greedy or impatient after all, it's altcoin we are talking about. Taking profit from an altcoin after you are satisfied from the return it gave you is something that should be appreciated, besides we don get to see this kind of offers everyday. Some altcoins aren't that good for long term holding, but when talk about Bitcoin, if you withdrew your profit from it within just the 2 months period then, that is a greedy investors because you might not see that price again after you think you have out smart the network. for those who trade with Bitcoin, it would be better to leave your holding til after th halving and the bull run before you sell

Opi think wattin you dey go find for sokoto e dey for your shokoto, you don already point out the cause of dust error and you still dey fine more, the one wey you talk naim be the major Koko wey dey causes am,  na just the system way of refusing to add more pending transaction for air to wait for miners to pick dem, so anytime wey you go experience this kind of tin just know say the mempool dey very congested. And I think you also point out a very good alternative to take press am for this kind of issues to swap go another coin wey no get congestion then withdraw your fundz.

My brother no be lie oo, how person wan do, our own na to just dey sit down dey watch wattin those wey dey for power dey yalk, because even if we waist our saliva, na still the same thing wey dey their mind dem ho do. Though e never too tay wey I see five naira and that na because, e been dey for one of my very old working trouser, and when I see am sef I surprise because e no get worth again. Inflation just dey carry us go where we no know, as it stands even 10naira sef nor go fit buy tomtom again sef, if you try am your mind go dey  say the the contri don cast and no wey when e fit come back with all those kricoli men dem wey be leaders.
907  Local / Politics and society (Naija) / Re: What opportunities do you see around you? on: December 21, 2023, 10:00:06 PM

Why then are people not going into farming? Why do we cry about unemployment when many people have lands they can cultivate in the villages yet lying fallow. I truly see a very big opportunity in farming.
 

Why people don't go into farming is simply because of herds men. We dey talk like say we don forget say herds men dey carry their cows enter people farm go chop all the things wey farmers suffer plant. In some cases self the herders dey uproot cassava by themselves put for ground for the animals to dey chop. If them enter any farm all the things dey finish of course we know say the cow dey plenty waka. These herders dey carry knife, gun and ready to kill any vigilante wey try to chase dem.

What about insecurity wey farmers dey face, raping of women for farm, kidnapping etc.

All these food shortages and problem started with Buhari because him no gree stop herders to dey waka enter people farm, so na the consequences be this wey dey go on like this.


There are many other areas that present huge opportunities that people are not tapping into. My mindset has changed so much lately as I have realised that Nigeria is like an untapped treasure. I'm from South South Nigeria and I can only say about my area. Those from other regions can narrate what they consider as opportunity in their place.

Which other ways my brother wey no be bonkering wey dey illegal. To do genuine business for here to trade and buy no be easy thing again, if you no take time your capital go waka with inflation. The only opportunity wey me I dey see na online business wey you just only need your smartphone and data.

My brother you hit the nail for the head, na my mind naim you just talk so, sometimes I go just dey look people wey dey talk about say  farming naim be the way just dey laugh because, if to say them fey actually do the farm work dem go know how the business don spoil reach. Thank God say the op talk say before dem dey get am clear from farming, I still let you know say now and den nor be the same thing oo.

Yes na true say people nor suppose to sit down for house nor dey any but to play draft or do approko and complain about the government while dem fit actually engage demsef for something wey go fit produce money, but when we talk about farming my brother, if you nor get land e dey very hard now to convince person wey get make em for give you small portion wey you go use take farm oo, even like this sef, some lands wey we been dey use farm the owners don come collect am say dem wan build house in the next 3 month, but like this e don dey go 4 better years e never still do anything.

Me na better cassava farmer, based on the south region of the country wey I from, before the rainy/flood season we don harvest our cassava finish and we go come store the cassava stem till dry season for the next farm season. After we don go plant finish aboki go carry their cow go chop the only stem wey we get, and the funny part na be say most of the stem na buy we dey buy am, do you can just imagine after all the stress and money wey you put inside, everything go just go like that. About two months ago herds men been kill one of my relative for bush just because e ho question dem, and that thing bring very big problem, now the man wife and 7 children dey house, no papa.

No be say better thing nor dey for the farm business oo, but the stress come join with disappointment wey herds men dey cause naim just dey make the thing dey tire person sometimes, even for isoko south of delta state the rapping reported cases don many well well. So my brother, no be the way you thing say e dey naim e dey so oo, things don change well well.
908  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: December 21, 2023, 06:55:48 PM
so yeah, you could well have an emergency fund that covers 3-6 months of your expenses (salary) and helps you to feel comfortable that you have enough money in such emergency fund in the case you might be able to be more aggressive in your bitcoin investment and also to have the emergency fund available in case you overdo it... which might sometimes end up happening, and it should be minimized that you are counting on your emergency fund, yet after you maintain an emergency fund for a long enough period of time and you get used to maintaining an emergency fund, then you should come to realize how to use it and the creation of your own personal boundaries for when and how to use it..

Well spoken Mr JJG, emergency funds are very important for every Bitcoin investor who is into long term holding. Emergency funds are the basic things any Bitcoin investor should set aside before going into investment. Just as you said most times we get too tempted to overdo our investment due to the market movement, especially now that we are close to the halving and would be experience th bull run thereafter. Most times I sit back and wonder if I'm out of my mind for making some aggressive decision in accumulating Bitcoin, but then I realize that every decision concerning Bitcoin is worth the risk, and that is how move on.

After stumbling on those 9 factor and examining my condition, I think I need to work on number 8 because, my application of accumulating strategy isn't flexible and I need to update myself time to time. However it's not all that necessary, especially for newbies. I think the category of person worthy of trying this strategy are those above the newbie stage, newbies in Bitcoin holding are advised to stick with DCA until you seem comfortable of holding without hitting the sell button, then you can go ahead in exploring other strategies. I am still applying buy the dip with DCA and this is the best I have seen so far, don't know if there are other strategy better than this for now, but I think I am comfortable enough to make some changes.
909  Local / Off-topic (Naija) / Re: Glo and it's network wahala on: December 21, 2023, 06:07:30 PM
All this their network issues dem, na why I never still buy Glo sim, though na them be the best for data offers and Dem sabi customer. But that their network issues just too much, the worst tin wey go happen to person na make e go use Glo sim as em bank ussd transfer sim, because Glo network com join bank own, that na very big network combo Grin. Just as Mr Charles_Tim don talk, e go good make you try all the sims but I go advise make you nor even waist your time try Etisalat, because na them be the worst. Me na Airtel I dey use, and I'm satisfied with the offer wey Dem dey give me.

something times all this network issues dem na from our phones, I dey experience some kind time wey my phone network go just dey slow or nor dey even work sef wen I sti get data, so until I put the fone for airplane mode come commot am, before e go come dey operate normal. So most times you fit dey try this technique.

The the second technique wey I go recommend na say, if your fone network dey slow down, while you get data, just go your call side for the phone as if you wan dial number. Den dail *#*#4636#*#* you go come see some options, pick phone information, then just go down to where the you go see preferred network select LTE which is 4G, then just minimize go back to your browser or wattin you been dey do, you go observe say the network go come fast.

Follow the pictures direction and you'll be just fine.
Note: this one nor dey work for all phones especially Samsung, though I never try am for iOS(iphone) but e dey work for other Android device wey I don try

And to add to wattin you don talk about hacker and scammers, hacker dey more of people wey dey do programming and Dem sabi write code, the ones wey we dey hear for all this crypto side, na the hand work of hackers, the part wey scammer come in na the trading of your coin through p2p. Person wey go scam go tell you to send you coin come make Dem for credit you, but if you go loose guide Dem go just use your coin take jolof.
But most of this yahoo boys wey dey we contri na scam Dem dey scam, so make we shine our eyes oo, make we for not go fall victim. This bpip site wey dey connected to this forum, I nor dey like to enter there reach 5min because  your connect most times nor dey secure with site. If you see that red sign just no say you dey exposed to hackers

912  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which type of gambling have more gambling addicts ? on: December 21, 2023, 07:23:17 AM
Honestly speaking all gambling has their own addicts who are very irresponsible in their gambling, and I believe gambling addiction is a self decision. However the disadvantage of casino in house gambling is that while gambling you might be there all by yourself and no one might be able to advise you on quitting, though you can also go in with very little amount and still have a long day of gambling experience. and casino gambling also offers gamblers the opportunity of winning a jackpot. Then on the other hand, one on one player gambling seem more like the rich men gambling so higher stakes are made and most of them knows when to quit after all, they can even go into the gambling hall with some of their associates, and can be advised when to withdraw from the game. So it a bit hard to tell where more of the gambling addict arise from in both type of gambling.
913  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Craze for Meme coins never ends? on: December 21, 2023, 06:25:09 AM
The returns from meme coin most times can be quite impressive, 100x return isn't a minor profit  and I believe that is the main reason why investors now focus on meme coins, while neglecting the risk associated with meme coin. The higher the volatility the higher the risk and return, either bearish or bullish. Meme coins are for those investors who are actually traders or have the skills of a trader, the worst thing that can ever happen to an investor is, after considering memecoin for long term holding and the coin crashes to price zero. Considering all this risk of losing my money I just decided not to even give it a try.
914  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Secure your crypto wealth by not having it all in crypto on: December 20, 2023, 10:41:49 PM
Op you are quite correct, the risk in crypto shouldn't be underestimated because, it is capable of increasing ones BP. If an investor losses his coin to a scammer, that would be a very painful experience and you can imagine loosing all his life savings in one sport. It is not advisable to keep all of your investment in crypto. Most especially when that is your life savings and you used all for crypto investment. There are some motivational speakers who can hype the market and convince you to buy, you can find such person on X. But honestly speaking it's not advisable to keep all your eggs in one basket.
915  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Hot News on Bitcoin 🔥 on: December 20, 2023, 12:58:34 PM
All this kind news, we dey see all the time, shabi the people wey make that prediction na human being like us, the news by right no suppose to be wattin go influence our decision to buy or sell, if na news dey influence person e just mean say that person na still baby investors, though the news na positive one but we nor be trader wey dey follow after news for any stock wey wan get better spike of skyrocket. Wattin I dey try talk na be say Bitcoin na investment wey na long term be the main Koko, and when you dey into long term you nor need news again or prediction from human being wey be like you wey fit make errors for em predictions.

However I nor shock me say Bitcoin go still increase because na wattin everybody dey expect now, as we don dey very close to the halving.
916  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Work smart on: December 20, 2023, 12:48:58 PM
My fellow newbies , I urge you all to work smart, if working hard truly pays as they say, the wheel barrow pushers and those doing hard work would have been the richest men on earth.
Take a look at the big guys, they make their money work for them, that is working smart in action.
As a Bitcoineer that we are now, the best way for we to work smart is to accumulate enough Bitcoin through the DCA method, so that when the bull runs comes by, we can reap our reward bountifully.

Bro topics like this don many well well for this local board oo, e nor go nice after person don lock this type of thread because of spamming, then make your own sef just dey. Op abeg make you try lock this thread because everything wey Dem go reply you na wattin we don talk tire for here, e go just be like say we dey repeat ourselves. And besides Dem fit tag you for spamming make you account for just go like that. So take the best action to lock this thread baba Dem from outsid this local board wey dey burst account dey observe all of us.

Take note say Bitcoin investment no be work oo, na just wattin we fit carry save some of our money for years make e for dey grow instead of to dey loss value.
917  Other / Off-topic / Re: Do you regret also for ever knowing about gambling? on: December 19, 2023, 10:07:10 PM
It is very bad to substitute hate and hatred towards a particular person in an argument with someone. There is no rational argument for social morality in gambling, so gambling if you have money is a purely personal reason for you. When we get together with some friends we gamble even if it is not for the sake of profit and at this moment we criticize all the gains and losses from our gambling. If someone forced you to gamble you would blame him but i don't think that is the case. In that case if someone encourages you to gamble outright you may still be guilty.
Very funny because no one can actually forced you to gamble, that's if already you didn't developed interest in the act. People that blame others for their loses or introduction to gambling is just shifting blames for their own ignorance because playing gambling is something that everyone has an option to choose from especially when it comes to the part that deals with giving you games to play. If you know that you will get hurt or angry by heeding to people advice in your gambling activities then it's better to just snub any coming your way.

You see, this is the more reason why every casino don't allow below the age of 18 to gamble, because you'll be responsible for your actions. People above the age of 17 are considered mature to make some certain life decisions and gambling isn't an exception, so I don't think legal gambler can be forced into gambling, most especially when he has the legal right to make decisions. Putting blames on someone for your loses in gambling is a childish act and a clear example of an irresponsible gambler.
918  Local / Politics and society (Naija) / Re: secrecy vs visibility; creating a balance. on: December 19, 2023, 09:50:06 PM
Yeah we see lots of persons who actually fall into the category of being shy on their business advertisment, but are very good with the skill. Most times, they are even better than those who show off their skill on social media and public discussions. People who tend to be shy or not into business advertisment might be due to illiteracy, because most of those people who actually takes this hand work serious are those who chose it from the start and have made it their life career unlike some that went to school and still feel those skill/ handwork are just temporary hustle.

I no go lie you the person wey dey work out generator na so e be, e nor dey talk too much, and e not go school but, if that guy touch your gen hand, you go know say person touch your gen, be it servicing or any thing, provided say e touch the engine part, your gen must change sound and work well. So people like this dey very real but you nor go know until you try Dem, then your mind go dey.
919  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: How do you feel about market recovery on: December 19, 2023, 04:59:34 PM
It never too late for the entire crypto market to change positively to allow hodlers to experience recover from their hodling in the market that will make others short term hodlers  to take a bold step to increase their capital and to apply long term hodling in the future. There is a hope that the BTC will rise higher above $42k before the end of this year which will be profitable for those that will endure by continue hodling for their choice to come before they can sell to make a good profits that will help them to invest when the bear run come again.

 BTC will be a best choice, if you want to buy BTC now because the price has reached $42k and, it will create a lot of opportunities to those that missed it when the price was low to kindly use this period to visit market to buy and hodl for bull run to come before they can sell to be part of those that will earn well from their hodling.

Absolutely correct mate, Bitcoin investment does not have any late entry, the time some investors think it's already late, is also a good opportunity for those who truly knows about Bitcoin network. So even if the price reaches $100k after the bull run, "buy now" would still be the trending song, so no matter the price of Bitcoin it will be never too late to accumulate, the only disadvantage of buying late is, you'll not be able to accumulate a whole bitcoin easily, but aside that there is other disadvantage in Bitcoin accumulation. Satoshi is a genius all thanks to him/them for the idea of using limited supply as one of the influencers of the price of Bitcoin.
920  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: is right time for investment ? on: December 19, 2023, 12:18:19 PM
if you know the project and has the funds? then no one or nothing can hinder you from
investing just make sure that you will only use the amount that you can manage to risk and lose and
not the funds your family will be needing any time soon. specially that we are nearing Christmas and
yeah you will be needing more money to spend and to enjoy this merry and covid free occasion.

Actually I am not a fan of altcoins, and above all, I don't follow after trend nor what the media has to say concerning a coin in the crypto market. No matter the percentage of increase a coin experiences I don't give a fuck, I'm always satisfied with the profits I get from my Bitcoin holding. When we talk about risk, yeah all crypto investment are risky but Bitcoin is less risky compared to other altcoins especially meme coins, scam projects are all over the crypto market and they might even be very difficult to identify, even the ones we tought were legit still turns out to be scam. So to be on the safer side, I'll just stick with my Bitcoin.
