The year started with hope as every other year,with everybody focused on the forth coming elections,majority of the youth were beeming with hope that finally there might be a mesiah to safe Nigeria someone different from the usual political class.This group of youth along with some elderly and notable men in the society who desperately yearn for change formed a bond a family and nicked name it the OBIDIENT,that was the wave at the beginning of the year,and then Naira scarcity sets in Around February,it was one of the worst period I have experienced as a citizen of this country,so many people were lost as a result of this,people buy money in their on country,this event caused a widespread of violence across the country leading to closure of banks for fear of attack and iven burning down of some banks,that period might not be forget for a long time,till now I still dey say make God punish Emiefele.

2023 General ELECTION:so much anticipation for this event as earlier said,they were alot of first time voters,student were eager to vote,with the hope that the election would be free and fair,and then came February 25 the day of the presidential and national assembly election..to some eno go as expected to there it went as expected,but today we have a president,I won't say much on that. Then came march 18 2023 the day of Gubernatorial election,they were pocket of crisis around some state others were peaceful governor's where elected and others were selected but it was one of the key events in our country for the year 2023

My people we get matter for  our hand o,back in the days we use to here of older men having kidney failure,but surprisingly now youth are also being lost to this painful ailment of Renal and liver failure.and one does not need to look too far to find the cause of this. It caught a cross drinking fake drinks like alcohol,taking root commonly referred to as agbo,which have now been discovered to be a high contributor to the high case of kidney failure too.and this sachet alcohol we take also,like the action bitters,Chelsea and the rest.

I had a privilege to have a conversation with a doctor his revelation send shivers to my spine,he talking about how many patients come to the hospital needing dialysis and majority of them na young guys..omo I fear,he also emphasised on the fact that to get liver failure is more dangerous.In his word,"If kidney wan fail,him go give you sign,if you notice am you fit package am before e breakdown finally,but liver no dey give any sign..it will just breakdown and before you know belle don dey swell up".And largely liver failure are also caused by excessive alcohol intake.in general  let our alcohol intake be in moderate,too much drink no be enjoyment o,check originality of drink before you drink,there are so many fake product out there make person no go carry wetin him no know.

Omo,I used to struggle  back days to write extensively on topics in school,I might have the idea thou but the writen interpretation used to be a lot,then I was  introduced to the forum,I swear Initially i struggle to put any thing down.. gradually I see what people put down and am inspired,I started having the desire to learn this art of writing,I spend most times on post of others to learn one or two from them,and I can tell you Nigerians here are doing exceptionally well in terms of contribution to this forum and bitcoin at large

Over time I found out I could write with less stress than before,and my desire to also do research on random topics increased by some margin,which helped me alot in my closing phase in school and my work on my project topic.We have a great community in our hand in this forum and am glad to be part of it at this time.

Is the part of the year again where everybody are in celebrating mood,for various reasons like good health,financial blessing,for life,and for various goals met.as such we might tend to be in vulnerable state at some point.in respect to this I will put line certain we ought to do at this time to atleast not put us in harms way.

BRICS nations are advancing at a fast pace to eliminate the U.S. dollar-dominated financial system. The first step is to bypass the U.S. dollar and the second step is to create a new currency to settle international trades. While the first step is already in practice, the second step could be put in place after the BRICS summit in August 2023.

The alliance countries have already taken measures to bypass the US-dominated global financial system. The aim is to move away from the dependency on the U.S. dollar and provide an alternative global financial option. BRICS is an alliance of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa.






BRICS: The Next Step To Eliminate The U.S. dollar

Just recently, BRICS nations overtook G7 countries in global GDP while taking purchasing power parity into account. Russia announced that it would pay with the Chinese Yuan to settle trade with Asian, African, and Latin American countries. China and France completed the LNG gas trade using Yuan, ending the dollar’s reliance on energy trades.

Therefore, BRICS are currently successful in their plans to eliminate the U.S. dollar to settle global trades in native currencies. However, if the alliance countries agree to a mutual currency to settle global trade in the upcoming summit in August, the dollar may face a significant drop in demand.
The U.S. dollar might lack potency if the BRICS countries fully eliminate it for global settlements. Over time, many other countries could join the bandwagon and distance themselves from the USD.

The development could make the dollar weak and make way for a new financial system not dependent on the USD. The success or failure of this development now only depends on the next BRICS summit in South Africa.
The transition to settlements in national currencies is the first step. The next one is to provide the circulation of digital or any other form of a fundamentally new currency in the near future,” said the Deputy Chairman of Russia Duma, Alexander Bobakov

On March 10 2023 when silicon Valley Bank collapse and the subsequent failure of two others in silver Gate capital and signature bank, many had feard bitcoin would go dip, but rather, in this turmoil bitcoin have performed incredibly well,  already rallied around 70% this year. And for me this is an evidence that bitcoin is  offering an alternative to the traditional banking system as a place for people to keep their money safe. And one can say that this year with the current  activities happening in the banking sector,we might just see bitcoin getting to its previous high of nearly 69000k,and iven surpass it to have a record high..

For over a week now I have been  out of my locality to serve as a volunteer in a little underdeveloped area,only for us to to be  told that prior to the week we arrived,some government policies have affected cash flow..nevertheless we where not bothered because we got covered by our host.Not until a day ago when I had to buy a piece of art,longed admired by my mum to surprise her and I could not pay,Network was an issue and cash was not on hand,and I felt I should just ask the seller if we can transac with bitcoin,he said yes he can..I was surprised based on the location and also excited.i was able to buy that piece..i was so  relieved at the same time I felt an unbelievable joy that am part of something that has global value.,bitcoin has added value to the world.

I have been a crypto enthusiast for some time now,thou I have lacked consistentency,but over the years I have seen people who have carved out good lives for themselves with crypto,either by direct or indirect investment.,as a result I wish to invest in crypto with cash,but with minimal knowledge,so I seek the help of this house in advise on which crypto to invest in currently as someone who is just getting to learn about crypto currency.

Good day guys,this might or might not be the right place to post this,but as an enthusiast of crypto,and a newbie here too,I think I might just find some sot of knowledge here on NFT.first my knowledge of bitcoin is minimal thou,but am highly interested on how nft works..over the last couple of months,I have read people selling their work of art,some pieces and making bulk of money,iven snoop dog cashed out on NFt recently..so if any have a good idea of how this works should enlighten me please.

Good day people,as a newbe and an enthusiast of bitcoin I wonder if we  can have a future where crypto currency would be accepted as a global means of financial exchange, considering current stands of some Government on it..
