I am writing to bring attention to a significant issue that many members, especially beginners and myself are facing when browsing older threads. It has come to my attention that several images uploaded using imgur are currently displaying errors making it difficult for newcomers to understand the content and context of those threads.

As a beginner, I have always relied on studying old posts to gain knowledge and insights about various aspects of cryptocurrencies. However, with the disappearance of these images, the threads become incomplete and challenging to comprehend fully. With the help of the script written by @tryninja, users can update all their previous threads. Thanks to joker_josue for the creation of the new Bitcointalk image url web we are glad to have you here in a time of need.

I kindly request the assistance members in addressing this issue. It would be greatly appreciated if some users  put in effort  to restore or replace the broken images ensuring that valuable information is accessible to all members including junior members  like myself and newcomers.

Happy easter, my fellow Bitcoin members, I actually taught about something today, what if Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies existed In the old days? how would it have affected their economy. would it have hasten technological developments and maybe by now we could have been in the most advance planet in the universe? some major coins that were listed in the bible which had great values includes the

*TALENT: used to measure precious metals most especially gold and silver was known as the most accepted coin or currency in the old testament. I do think that this was the Bitcoin of the olden days. it actually still existed during and after the time of Jesus death.of which Jesus did mentioned in some of his parables.


*SHEKEL, was used as a measure of gold and silver in various cultures in the region, including the Israelites, Babylonians, Persians, and Greeks  which were known for their  wealth and prosperity.


*DENARIUS, was a silver coin, used in Rome during the time of Jesus. it was a standard pay for a days job in Rome which was the richest and most powerful country at that time.


*DRACHMA:  used in ancient Greek as silver. at that time, it was used in countries including isreal.


*MINA it was used in the mesopotamia to measure silver and gold. in was also accepted in many countries including Babylon, Persian and Greece.

most of these coins existed during the period of Jesus birth and death and had values in their respective times. do you think if  Bitcoin  was developed in the old days it could have brought about technological developments and maybe we would now be having more advanced crypto technologies as at now.

As at today, April 1 Btc grew by 1.96% hitting $28,571 in the last 24hrs.



we could be expecting the next bull run in the crypto market which will most likely be led by BTC to start in 2024 reaching it's highest in 2025.

one major element that can catalyse the next bull run, is the Bitcoin halving that triggers every 4 years.  And as expected after every Bitcoin halving comes a  Bull run in the crypto market.

 So, from the look of things, don't you think that investing in Btc at the moment could be worth considering?

Hello guy, I was reading a thread on this forum
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5221497.0.    recently and some other online blogs which said that kyc verification is extremely dangerous. If this is true, why do most crypto apps or other business ask for it, shouldn't it be banned or removed.
Most apps usually request for kyc verification before you can withdraw any coin or money from their wallets as this is very necessary to verify or certify you as a customer.
Kyc verification for long has helped prevent identity theft, financial laundering or fraud, terrorism and all financial crimes.
   
Is this true that kyc verification can put your funds and personal data at risk? Should we stop using any app that ask for kyc verification?

 As we all know, the 2023 elections results that took place on the 25 of February is yet to be released. All Nigerians are hoping and waiting for the results to be released as this would decide the countries economic growth for the next 4years. Rumors has it that the independent electoral commission (INEC) is still working on the results but has promised to release the today, on the 28 of February. We all hope that the right person wins and changes Nigeria positively so our coming years would be fruitful both financiallyBTC and economically.  May our efforts not be in vain. Amen

        One of the most populous continents in the world, ""Africa"" has contributed greatly to the cryptocurrency industry. But due to limited technical advancements or government-imposed restrictions, the majority of African nations are still unaware of cryptocurrency.
      I made the decision to look into some of the African nations with the highest levels of involvement in the cryptocurrency industry, their percentage contributions, and those where utilizing cryptocurrency is prohibited.


1#Nigeria: Nigeria has the greatest percentage of cryptocurrency owners in Africa, with over 10-22 million users, 10% of whom own several cryptocurrencies. It is one of the leading nations promoting cryptocurrency in Africa.
Notwithstanding the CBN's restriction, young people between the ages of 18 and 66 continue to engage in cryptocurrency.Most Nigerians now possess more cryptocurrencies than fiat money "Naira" due to the recent significant devaluation of the Nigerian currency.



2## Ethiopia:. Ethiopia's government, recently declared cryptocurrency trading illegal and banned the use of Bitcoin and all other forms of cryptocurrency due to fraud committed by some citizens of the nation.The "Birr" is regarded as the only legal money in the nation, but over 1.4 million Ethiopians continue to engage in cryptocurrency trading this is considered as a significant felony or serious crime.



3###South Africa: It's incredible to learn that South Africa is also making a contribution to cryptocurrencies, with 4.5 million of its residents and 88% of its adults owning cryptocurrency.
   As cryptocurrency is not prohibited in South Africa, it is actually accepted as payment for goods and services. In fact, this has greatly aided the nation's economic growth.



4####Kenya: Kenya, a well-known nation in Africa, struck agreements with various cryptocurrency trading firms and professionals to help develop their economy, and this has resulted in lucrative earnings over the past few years.
   Also, it is claimed that the government of Kenya intends to adopt Bitcoin as its official currency.
In Kenya, 8.9% of the population now owns bitcoin, while over 4.4 million Kenyans have expressed interest in trading cryptocurrencies.



5#####Egypt: Due to the depreciation of their own fiat currency, young adults in Egypt have made the decision to search for alternative sources of income. The demand for cryptocurrencies has surged in Egypt as a result of the participation of over 67% of young adults in the country in cryptocurrency trading.



6######Ghana: Around 17% of the country's young adults hold cryptocurrencies, and 3.1 million adults trade them.
    In Ghana, cryptocurrency is accepted as a form of payment for trading. With the aid of some crypto institution offered by their government, this has been made possible.




I discovered during my investigation that majority of African nations have cryptocurrency trading bans, therefore I've also decided to list some of them.

Here are some of the nations where cryptocurrency is prohibited.

Niger, Senegal, Tanzania, Togo, Tunisia, Zambia, Algeria, Benin, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cameroon, Chad, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Gabon, and Lesotho are just a few of the countries represented.

These restrictions may be implemented as a result of fraudulent activities, money laundering, or other Ponzi schemes operating in these nations, which compelled their governments to do so. Future consideration for the repeal of bans is possible.
 

What do you think about the African nations who aren't allowed to use Bitcoin? Do they merit these reprimands?

Do you believe that the government is genuinely allowing its people to lose out on the exciting world of cryptocurrencies?

Do you anticipate that these restrictions will be lifted?

If you are in Africa, what is your countries contributions in the crypto market?

       We give thanks to God almighty, for the success of today's 2023 presidential general elections. It was a huge success. Although in many polling zones, they said to have experienced rainfall. But that didn't stop Nigerians from voting, they all stood still even under the rain.
      We also thank God for granting each and everyone of us who went out to vote, safe returns.   
       some people on radio and televisions complained of not having enough security personnels in and around their polling zones. Still, there were no stories of hoodlumps, terrorists attacks or violence of any kind.
   Information that got to me said that the president of Nigeria,  Muhammad Buhari, also went out to play his role as a citizen and casted his vote. And I heard that he voted for labor party .lol that's wonderful. My question here now to you all, is who did you vote for?
I voted for labor party, so what about you?...

What do you plan to do?
###  if after this elections, Nigeria still remains the same, despite the change of government. Do you plan on leaving the country, do you plan on staying and manage it anyway

### if a new government is elected and then everything becomes good, do you plan on staying and enjoy the benefits of the new government, a new Nigeria.
