1  Economy / Reputation / The strength of campaign managers . on: May 29, 2025, 03:12:22 PM
I want this thread to be a thread to praise your campaign managers (present or past), even if not your campaign manager, but you like the way he runs his campaign.

In a Nigerian adage, "when you praise a palm wine tapper, he will bring home even the finest wine".

If this topics goes fine, we could have another thread pointing their weaknesses so that they can improve.

Has this Text-To-Speech been implemented for so long? I am just seeing it for the first time, it's a welcomed development.

However, it is not working the correct way. I played it and it started reading the text on that particular board. But instead of it to read all the topics in that page, it read only the first topic, and started reading the time and date of all the threads in that page.
So, it read from left to right and from right downwards.
3  Economy / Speculation / March ending rally, what is it? on: March 24, 2025, 03:32:15 PM
With 24 hours, we have seen that cryptocurrency capitalization rose by upto 3%+, and we also recorded $88,000 within the time in review. What does this tell us about the market, is it a signal to the anticipated last lap bull run?

What is your opinion, sell now or keep HODLing?
4  Economy / Reputation / I have been offered over $10,000 to sell my account. on: February 01, 2025, 11:11:29 PM
I have been offered over $10,000 to sell my account.

I would never consider selling it .

This got me curious and I began to ask myself the following questions;
  • How many accounts in BTT currently worth over $10k? Apart from theymos account and the other admin.
  • Are global moderators account worth this amount?
  • Campaign managers? Hhampuz, Icopress, Royse?
  • Other users like LoyceV, DdMrDdMr etc

I think most managers account is worth this, because if it enters scammers hands, they can pull a heavy scam even more than $10k.

Is your account worth more than $10k?

  • We won
  • We will end the weaponization of our Government.
  • We will not be invaded
  • There will be massive deportation

  • Everyone and every family in America will prosper
  • Tik Tok is back
  • I will order the military to construct a missile defense shield over US
  • He will reverse over classification of government documents
  • Border security to figure prominently in his executive orders
  • America will win, win, win and win

6  Other / Politics & Society / The god of religions on: January 10, 2025, 11:49:29 PM
In the year 2023, the Israeli military invaded Gaza and many people were killed, especially the Palestinians. The Christians in my country believed the act was justifiable because the Israelis are God's children.

Fast forward to today, fire is destroying L.A and another religion in my country, the Muslims believe that Allah is probably punishing the Americans for supporting Israeli to destroy Gaza.

Why has religion succeeded in disstablizing humans, also helped in dividing us rather than unit us. We now see God as the head and supporter of one religion against the other.
Where then is the place of love and humanity?
7  Other / Meta / Second chance for mixers? on: January 06, 2025, 10:48:06 PM
I read in Babo new year thread where theymos dropped a message about bitcoin performance last year. He noted how unbelievably anti-bitcoin the outgoing Biden's administration was - Looking forward, it's definitely a very good thing that the Biden administration will be gone, since they were unbelievably anti-crypto

If Trump's administration becomes so bitcoin friendly, will theymos consider lifting mixers ban in the forum?
8  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / A better BTC buy-sell strategy on: November 29, 2024, 08:11:16 PM
Just as the title suggests, which is a better method of bitcoin investment. I will appreciate an in-depth explanation with relatable historical data.

1. Buying and hodling BTC for two circles (two bear and two, 8 years).
2. Buying and hodling BTC for only one circle, sell all during the bull run and wait for the next circle to buy again.
3. Buying and hodling BTC for one circle, sell 50% during bull run and leave 50% to continue investment in the next circle?

Which will give a better profit within 8 years.
9  Other / Politics & Society / [US Election 2024] discussion thread. on: November 01, 2024, 09:10:02 PM


For months, there has been several US election related threads in the forum. This season's election hits the crypto communities differently as a presidential candidate has an unreserved support for crypto. This gesture in one way or the other has involved all crypto lovers in US election as many believe that the US election results could make or mare the anticipated bull run.
In 4 days time, the long awaited election will hold. Let us discuss the odds, the election process, the buzz and the results here.
10  Bitcoin / Legal / Court freezes N548.6 Million belonging to ‘ByBit, KuCoin’ Nigerian crypto users on: September 11, 2024, 02:47:26 PM
Quote from: nairametrics
Nigeria’s anti-graft agency, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), has secured an order from the Federal High Court to freeze N548.6 million in bank accounts belonging to suspected crypto users on platforms like ByBit, KuCoin, and others, based on their alleged role in naira fluctuations.

The motion, dated September 3, 2024, which the court relied on to freeze the funds, casts a fresh spotlight on major foreign crypto platforms, ByBit and KuCoin, accusing them of aiding the devaluation of the Nigerian currency.

This development is part of a broader prosecutorial and legal campaign by federal government agencies to address alleged foreign exchange violations and tax evasion by foreign cryptocurrency platforms.

Nigerian government has blamed severally naira fluctuation on exchanges in Nigeria. Reason why Binance stopped trading naira pair, also why OKS and other exchanges stop trading naira and even the P2P. Is naira devaluation actually caused by the p2p speculators in CEXs?
Or is the government shifting blames and chasing clouts?

12  Economy / Reputation / Is this an obvious misuse of merit? on: May 01, 2024, 12:24:38 PM
I was going through the service board and I saw this user's signature and avatar rent thread. I checked the user's feedback page and discovered he has 2 neutrals, one of which states thus;
Quote
He misuses the merit system by proposing to give merit to whoever guesses the price of bitcoin on a date instead of giving merit for quality.

I don't think that this is an enough reason for a tag. Being able to guess the price of bitcoin is a good job already, it must not be some walls of text to be quality. Secondly, the user being tagged is a full member and also not a merit source.

Note: I don't know if there are other ill behaviours of that user, I just created this thread to get clarified if there was an obvious merit abuse incase of subsequent scenarios.
13  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / E no resemble local board. on: April 10, 2024, 08:19:06 PM

My people na wetin I get to share be this o.
14  Other / Meta / Alts vs farm. on: March 27, 2024, 06:51:38 PM
For some days or weeks now, there's a thread in reputation board - PytagoraZ & komisariatku are alts. I followed up the thread to the extent that I believed that PytagoraZ is a different person from Komisariatku, but I didn't air my opinion. But on visiting the thread again, I discovered that everything was bursted.

What prompted this thread is this;
Just for a quick recap, if all the names of the associated accounts are compiled then this is what the complete list should appear as:

akbarharyadi8
asrinur
coklat gurih
cyberdg
Hagz
havi agasa
komisariatku
Maftukh
nyupangcoin
pentol86
PytagoraZ
razor92
tu_kang


Personally, I would not limit the total to the names mentioned above because once the can of worms is opened, it usually leads to surprises.

  • It is allowed to own alts.
  • How many alts will one own and it will become a farm?
  • Is farm accounts without merit sharing, cheating campaigns or contests allowed?

I will need some experience users to give an answer.

At the current market condition and having bull run in mind, these persons have $10,000 to invest.

  • Miss Alice goes 50% bitcoin and 50% random altcoins.
  • Mr. theymos goes with bitcoin but $100 weekly DCA.

17  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Pidgin no mean abbreviations. on: September 27, 2023, 07:59:17 AM
My people, I carry this matter come here make we for understand one or two things. E get wetin I discover for this our pidgin wey we dey carry hold bodi for this local board. E get how you go take write this pidgin e go come hard to understand pass normal English. Make we avoid am abeg.

I discover say some of us, when we wan type for pidgin, we go use plenty of abbreviations wey no make sense, all in the name of pidgin. Abeg, abbreviation no be pidgin, infact e dey create more problems for reading pidgin. Make we learn how to type in full for pidgin make our write ups for make sense. I for mention names, but I believe those people when dey read this post go adjust. Na everyday we dey learn. If you check this my post, na pidgin I knack but you no go see abbreviations full everywhere.

For conclusion, wetin I mean be say, pidgin no mean say you go use abbreviation full everywhere but if that same person wan type for English, you no go see any unnecessary abbreviations.
18  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Bitcoin in your country. on: September 13, 2023, 12:16:37 PM
This thread is created to enable bitcoiners in this forum to narrate the status of bitcoin in their country. This will include whether bitcoin is legalised, outlawed or a legal tender in your country. You have the liberty to mention your country or not. Other details may include if bitcoin is mined in your country and the overall friendliness of the government to cryptocurrency in your country.

Importance of the thread
  • This will enable bitcoiners to know the fate of bitcoin in different countries
  • This thread will allow travellers to know bitcoin friendly countries that they will travel to for residential purpose or vacation in order to live a bitcoiner's life.

I go first:

I am a Nigerian.


  • On the 5th of February 2021, The Central Bank of Nigeria directed all the banks in Nigeria to close the accounts of all the people that are involved in cryptocurrency transactions in the country. The banks swung into action immediately. This made Nigerians believe that the government has banned cryptocurrency in the country.
  • Nigerians began to use centralized p2p to trade and when there is need for banks, they send the money without using any crypto keywords in the narration. Meanwhile,  the information was that crypto is banned in Nigerian
  • Quote
    March 21, 2021: The CBN clarifies its position on the ban and states that individuals  are not prohibited from buying and trading crypto, just not through any Nigerian bank or fintech.
  • So, in my country cryptocurrency is not banned but its transaction with banks is banned.

On 28th May, 2023 Nigeria government signed into law the finance act 2023 which grants 10% tax on gains in digital assets including cryptocurrency while still keeping cryptocurrency transaction banned in the country. This is the state of the confusion about bitcoin and cryptocurrency in my country.
19  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Off Topic child board. on: May 18, 2023, 10:04:50 PM
Make I no for paint words here. Make I go straight to the point. CryptopreneurBrainboss, you fit request for child boards for us, among the children board will be Off topic child board.
If you check the first page, you go discover say 70% of the topics wey dey there na off topics. I mean if you make am for the large forum, moderators go move am to off topic.
If na off topic for large forum, na still  off topic for here.

E get when this matter been raise but we been no know the importance of it. Now we don get our board I think we need Off topic and Politics and Society. These two children board dey important because due to how our government dey treat us, an average Nigerian love to talk about politics and government.
